[00:00] <gratnam11> hey guys i tried to install postfix
[00:00] <Far^Side> daftykins, seems like convmv is what I was looking for...
[00:00] <W3ird_N3rd> liminal, try starting a browser from the commandline and see how it crashes
[00:00] <Jasonn> gratnam11: and how did that go?
[00:00] <gratnam11> i gets stuck at the bluee screen where it ask u to select mail configuration
[00:01] <gratnam11> i did it using aptitude
[00:01] <liminal> chromium-browser -
[00:01] <gratnam11> i can't seem to select any optioon there
[00:01] <gratnam11> nvm
[00:01] <gratnam11> pressing esc seem to work
[00:01] <W3ird_N3rd> skxx, try to find your printer at http://www.openprinting.org/printers
[00:02] <liminal> [31894:31894:37568050343:ERROR:extension_prefs.cc(734)] Bad or missing pref 'state' for extension 'hpibmhghjndideebpackbdlpncgkcppp'
[00:02] <testing> I am having serious issues with ubuntu becoming unusable whenever it runs out of memory. What can be done to keep the responsiveness even when close to out of memory?
[00:02] <liminal> [31894:31894:37568050454:ERROR:extension_prefs.cc(734)] Bad or missing pref 'state' for extension 'lncjcfkpannmofmpgdfoonkniofdnaba'
[00:02] <gratnam11> actualy no
[00:02] <liminal> does that mean anything to anyone?
[00:02] <gratnam11> i press esc i am able to select and then it takes me back to that blue screen some one plese help
[00:02] <Ampelbein> gratnam11: is it your first install of postfix? if yes, run 'sudo dpkg --configure postfix'
[00:02] <Icderion> im getting a error on loading the os after installing it with the error gave up waiting for root device
[00:02] <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!!
[00:03] <gratnam11> yeah
[00:03] <W3ird_N3rd> skxx, 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 etc
[00:03] <gratnam11> but don't i have to do supdo aptitude install postfix first
[00:03] <jrib> cal_: create a new user and see if it happens there
[00:03] <gratnam11> can i control d out where i am right now
[00:04] <Icderion> im getting a error on loading the os after installing it with the error gave up waiting for root device
[00:04] <gratnam11> nothing seems to work
[00:04] <W3ird_N3rd> testing, install more memory
[00:04] <gratnam11> clt d clt c ctl z
[00:04] <gratnam11> what do i do
[00:04] <W3ird_N3rd> liminal, you crashed it that quickly?
[00:04] <liminal> no that was just on startup.. it hasnt crashed
[00:04] <testing> W3ird_N3rd: uhm ... I dont know if that is possible. =)
[00:05] <W3ird_N3rd> why not?
[00:05] <W3ird_N3rd> no money? rob a bank!
[00:05] <cal_> jrib: nope, that worked. how do i get my original account working though? lol
[00:05] <testing> W3ird_N3rd: No it is maxed out already
[00:05] <skxx> W3ird_N3rd: it's fresh out of the box, but it seems to be supported from what i've hear
[00:05] <skxx> heard*
[00:05] <W3ird_N3rd> testing, how much you got?
[00:05] <testing> 2GB
[00:05] <W3ird_N3rd> memory I mean, not money
[00:06] <jrib> cal_: check ~/.xsession-errors on the problem account
[00:06] <W3ird_N3rd> that shouldn't get maxed out so quickly. You run heavy apps?
[00:06] <testing> browser and qt creator
[00:07] <skxx> W3ird_N3rd: i got it working using the designjet 110 driver, as someone said on openprinting.org.  thanks for the tip, man.
[00:07] <W3ird_N3rd> don't know qt creater
[00:07] <testing> gcc is a real hog
[00:07] <W3ird_N3rd> yw skxx :)
[00:07] <Seppoz> where can i read how to make my own deb package?
[00:07] <W3ird_N3rd> Seppoz, try checkinstall
[00:07] <W3ird_N3rd> there are many ways
[00:07] <jrib> !packaging | Seppoz
[00:08] <W3ird_N3rd> ^^ that's more informative
[00:08] <jahman> m huse are you their
[00:08] <W3ird_N3rd> testing, 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 memory
[00:08] <testing> 2GB is nothing these days
[00:08] <W3ird_N3rd> not much you can do about that
[00:09] <W3ird_N3rd> you could get a RAM-drive and put your swap on that, but you're probably better off getting a new mainboard that supports more memory
[00:09] <tvon> Is the notify-osd bubble supposed to go blurry when I hover over it with the mouse?
[00:09] <jrib> tvon: it's supposed to get out of your way
[00:09] <W3ird_N3rd> testing, 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 2
[00:10] <cal_> jrib: thanks man! that file had what i needed. problem solved!
[00:10] <testing> I need it till kill off some program or something to free up memory. Not just stalling everything.
[00:10] <tvon> jrib: would going blurry be it's way of getting out of my way?
[00:10] <jrib> tvon: 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 stuff
[00:10] <Polah> W3ird_N3rd: Surely if you're putting the swap on a RAM disk then it's pointless to have it?
[00:10] <tvon> jrib: okay, thanks
[00:10] <testing> W3ird_N3rd: how is that possible gcc uses 300MB+ whenever i compile
[00:11] <W3ird_N3rd> Polah, why?
[00:11] <jrib> tvon: you can ask the channel again about what behavior is expected on standard gnome.  Surely, someone can tell you :)
[00:12] <Polah> W3ird_n3rd: It'd be a part of the RAM itself and thus putting a swap there would be unecessary since it would be used anyway
[00:12] <testing> and the browser easily takes 800MB
[00:12] <W3ird_N3rd> I see what you mean but I meant a "disk" that has DIMM slots and a SATA connector
[00:12] <W3ird_N3rd> it's a different "ramdisk"
[00:12] <W3ird_N3rd> putting swap in your memory would indeed be pointless
[00:13] <Polah> Oh
[00:13] <Polah> Well then why not just put it on a normal hard drive? The maximum transfer speed would still be the same
[00:13] <W3ird_N3rd> slow random access
[00:14] <Polah> I suppose
[00:14] <W3ird_N3rd> Polah, besides, you could have something that has DIMM slots and a PCIe connector
[00:15] <W3ird_N3rd> testing, browser taking 800MB is pretty normal if you have some tabs open
[00:15] <testing> yeah i know
[00:15] <testing> and it is horrible
[00:16] <W3ird_N3rd> but 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 time
[00:16] <W3ird_N3rd> you can't have it all
[00:16] <testing> someone should make a browser which focuses on low memory consumption instead of speed speed speed
[00:16] <UbuntuDave> anyone got G13 to work correctly yet? i cant get G15daemon to start...
[00:17] <liminal> okay made it crash
[00:17] <W3ird_N3rd> chromium in my experience is pretty fast on a low-memory laptop
[00:17] <liminal> nothing came up in the terminal
[00:17] <W3ird_N3rd> so maybe install chromium, testing?
[00:17] <testing> i 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] <drc> testing: Midori?
[00:17] <W3ird_N3rd> it locks up?
[00:17] <W3ird_N3rd> testing, do you have a swap partition that's big enough?
[00:18] <RubenAlonzo> does 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] <testing> I dont have a swap partition.
[00:18] <W3ird_N3rd> well there's your problem!
[00:19] <testing> ?
[00:19] <xangua> RubenAlonzo: add it to your buddy list and put it to autojoin
[00:19] <testing> why would a swap partition solve this problem?
[00:19] <W3ird_N3rd> swap partition is used to put stuff on the hard drive that would otherwise go into memory, when the system runs out of memory
[00:19] <RubenAlonzo> thank you, xangua
[00:19] <W3ird_N3rd> if you don't have a swap partition and the computer runs out of memory, it crashes
[00:19] <testing> ehhh? no
[00:19] <UbuntuDave> anyone tell me the logitech channel?
[00:20] <Random832> W3ird_N3rd: no, it starts randomly killing processes
[00:20] <liminal> W3ird_N3rd, i have both chrome and chromium
[00:20] <liminal> they both crash.. does does FF
[00:20] <Random832> probably starting with your web browser and X, since IIRC it targets the ones with the most memory
[00:20] <W3ird_N3rd> Random832, not my experience. I've been rebooting a laptop several times after opening too many webpages when I forgot to set up swap
[00:20] <Random832> anyway you can get the same effect from running out of swap
[00:20] <testing> if it runs out of memory, it should start telling the applications that there is no more memory
[00:20] <Random832> W3ird_N3rd: turn overcommit off
[00:20] <W3ird_N3rd> altough Random832, I have to admit that was an old Ubuntu
[00:20] <W3ird_N3rd> might be different now
[00:21] <Random832> testing: the problem is the way the fork() function works
[00:21] <Random832> it doesn't know for sure that a program is going to _actually use_ memory that's copy-on-write
[00:21] <Random832> so there's no explicit allocation action in those cases
[00:21] <Random832> windows doesn't have this problem because it doesn't have fork
[00:22] <testing> Random832: yeah, it is the same way with malloc i think
[00:22] <RubenAlonzo> is 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] <Random832> you create a process and specify the new exe for th process all as one action
[00:22] <W3ird_N3rd> Random832, 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 anyway
[00:22] <testing> it gives the appklication a pointer but doesnt allocate it until the app actually writes to it
[00:22] <Random832> W3ird_N3rd: i nver said it was a good thing
[00:22] <Random832> but it still depends on how much memory you have
[00:22] <testing> it is a bad system
[00:22] <fisch246> how do you upgrade to a newer version of grub?
[00:22] <Random832> i mean, it's not like having swap will save you if you run out of swap
[00:22] <Random832> 1GBram+1GBswap isn't better than 2GBram
[00:23] <RubenAlonzo> Random,  i currently only have 1 gig but my little netbook is upgradable to 2 gigs max.
[00:23] <W3ird_N3rd> RubenAlonzo, 2GB is enough for web browsing/mail/IM
[00:23] <W3ird_N3rd> may be low for image-editing, video-editing and gaming
[00:23] <RubenAlonzo> thank you W3ird
[00:23] <Diamondcite> RubenAlonzo: 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] <soreau> Is 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 user
[00:23] <testing> 2Gb with ubuntu is unusable
[00:23] <Polah> W3ird_N3rd: For average gaming 2Gb is generally fine, especially with a swap of the same size.
[00:23] <testing> whatever you are running
[00:24] <W3ird_N3rd> Polah, agree, depends on your games
[00:24] <testing> perhaps pine and lynx ...
[00:24] <testing> but i have my doubts
[00:24] <Diamondcite> W3ird_N3rd: With 1.5GB... Web-browsing, flash video, IM, OpenOffice Spreadsheets, VirtualBox VM, Comics reading, video.
[00:24] <RubenAlonzo> Diamond, 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 hdd
[00:25] <Photocopy> #midori seems inactive...
[00:25] <RubenAlonzo> you know for my forums stuff and the like is what i use it for since the wife is always on FarmVille
[00:25] <testing> crashed 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 problem
[00:25] <Photocopy> how can I make midori my default broser?
[00:25] <Photocopy> browser*
[00:25] <Diamondcite> RubenAlonzo: Generally I don't feel any pain of memory unless I've been running for over a month without rebooting.
[00:25] <testing> does now
[00:25] <Photocopy> midori itself doesnt seem to offer me the option
[00:26] <UbuntuDave> does crossover have a irc channel?
[00:26] <Diamondcite> testing: What you do with your system matters alot.. querying an entire DB to put out a PHP page takes alot of memory :)
[00:26] <xangua> system>preferebces>orefered apps Photocopy
[00:26] <peeps[lappy]> i have some text files containing raw SMTP email messages, what would i use to extract attachments from these?
[00:26] <Random832> Photocopy: i think there's a default browser setting in system preferences.. don't know, haven't used ubuntu gui in a while
[00:26] <xangua> preffered*
[00:26] <W3ird_N3rd> Diamondcite, 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] <Photocopy> thank you xangua
[00:26] <testing> it shouldnt lock up in oom situations!!!!!
[00:26] <Diamondcite> RubenAlonzo: Okay.. what do you intend to do with your machine? Just to see if it's workable :)
[00:27] <W3ird_N3rd> you 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] <hihihi100> does anybody here use OpenBVE?
[00:27] <BajK> Which 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] <RubenAlonzo> so 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 works
[00:27] <Death_> irc.freenode.org -> #gentoo
[00:27] <testing> Death_: ?
[00:28] <BajK> ok the core i3-540 has dhe gma x4500
[00:28] <Diamondcite> RubenAlonzo: 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] <drc> RubenAlonzo: Have one of those (WD P 500gig HHD) too, works fine out of the box
[00:28] <W3ird_N3rd> testing, 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 either
[00:28] <p_res> W3ird_N3rd: I used 512MB for years with Ubuntu with no issues.
[00:28] <RubenAlonzo> Diamond, any idea how to format usb drives in ubuntu please?
[00:29] <Diamondcite> RubenAlonzo: I use gparted for that purpose
[00:29] <testing> W3ird_N3rd: i would want the latter ...
[00:29] <jack_^> RubenAlonzo, ? what're you trying to do? create a new filesystem?
[00:29] <RubenAlonzo> thank you Diamond
[00:29] <W3ird_N3rd> p_res, I still use Ubuntu on a 384MB laptop with no issues, other than being slow. Lubuntu is fine on 384MB though
[00:29] <RubenAlonzo> jack, no i wanted to buy an external usb drive but not sure if it would be recognized in ubuntu
[00:29] <testing> as it gives you at least some hope of recovery ...
[00:29] <AnubArack> how can i stop a [sudo] password request (until now i just entered wrong one 3 times, there must be a better way)
[00:29] <Diamondcite> AnubArack: ctrl+c
[00:29] <AnubArack> ty
[00:30] <p_res> W3ird_N3rd: I wouldn't use it with anything below 512. Not with GNOME desktop anyway.
[00:30] <W3ird_N3rd> testing, why don't you just set up a swap partition so it does't lock up in the first place?
[00:30] <W3ird_N3rd> p_res, agree, Ubuntu on 384MB is indeed slow, but Lubuntu (lxde, not gnome) is pretty ok
[00:30] <bob__840> I have redone a 2.1G stick w/ ext4: remove exist part then repart then format
[00:30] <RubenAlonzo> does 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 screen
[00:30] <p_res> W3ird_N3rd: Yeah I've used LXDE in the past. It's a nice alternative but not for me. ;-)
[00:31] <W3ird_N3rd> But I'm still running ubuntu (with gnome) on a 384MB laptop because I can't upgrade it further and am too lazy for a reinstall
[00:31] <xangua> !natty | RubenAlonzo
[00:31] <p_res> W3ird_N3rd: Whatever suits your needs I guess.
[00:32] <W3ird_N3rd> p_res, next time I reinstall it I'm going to put lxde on it ;)
[00:32] <p_res> Fair enough.
[00:33] <aroman> hey, 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_N3rd> I 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.MM
[00:33] <RubenAlonzo> i 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_N3rd> aroman, remove them in synaptic?
[00:33] <testing> W3ird_N3rd: i am running a wubi installation and the NTFS stuff is not good for swap performance
[00:33] <aroman> W3ird_N3rd: would that run the neccessary uninstall scripts? and idk what they're called :)
[00:33] <xangua> !upgrade | RubenAlonzo
[00:33] <liminal> ERROR:extension_prefs.cc(734)] Bad or missing pref 'state' for extension 'lncjcfkpannmofmpgdfoonkniofdnaba'
[00:34] <liminal> does anyone know what this error could be related too?
[00:34] <W3ird_N3rd> aroman, I'm not entirely sure
[00:34] <RubenAlonzo> thank you ubotto
[00:34] <W3ird_N3rd> RubenAlonzo, ubottu is a bot
[00:34] <W3ird_N3rd> RubenAlonzo, you should thank xangua for instructing ubottu to help you ;)
[00:35] <xangua> you should thank the gnomes ;)
[00:35] <liminal> never mind
[00:35] <liminal> http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=71612
[00:35] <RubenAlonzo> thank you xangua via way of ubotto! and thank you as welWeird for tellingme.
[00:35] <RubenAlonzo> weird*
[00:36] <RubenAlonzo> W3ird!
[00:36] <p_res> liminal: The Ubuntu Forums might be better to ask that question as you'll have to post more information than that.
[00:36] <W3ird_N3rd> RubenAlonzo, if you start typing a nickname you can complete it using the TAB-key ;)
[00:37] <W3ird_N3rd> you didn't think I typed RubenAlonzo every time completely? :)
[00:37] <RubenAlonzo> hey! thanks W3ird
[00:38] <fisch246> i'm trying to password protect the "Recovery Mode option" in grub... having a bit of difficulty... i edited "/etc/grub.d/00_header" but i'm lost when trying to edit "/etc/grub.d/10_linux" file...
[00:38] <RubenAlonzo> does anyone use an external usb storage? any problems getting it recognized?
[00:38] <W3ird_N3rd> RubenAlonzo, always works flawlessly
[00:38] <RubenAlonzo> i meansied a thumbdrive
[00:39] <RubenAlonzo> i meant besides a thumbdrive, sorry
[00:39] <p_res> RubenAlonzo: I use a 1TB Seagate external usb.
[00:39] <W3ird_N3rd> RubenAlonzo, a harddrive?
[00:39] <RubenAlonzo> p_res, did you have to somehow format it or was it recognized immediately?
[00:39] <W3ird_N3rd> also no problem. On a laptop, you might have trouble if your USB doesn't supply enough power for the harddrive to work
[00:40] <p_res> RubenAlonzo: At first plug in I had to reboot once.
[00:40] <RubenAlonzo> yes w3ird like a western digital 500 gig usb drive
[00:40] <RubenAlonzo> ah ok, thank you p_res
[00:40] <W3ird_N3rd> RubenAlonzo, did you buy it as an external drive? Or did you put a drive in an external case
[00:40] <p_res> RubenAlonzo: It works formatted as both ntfs and ext3/4.
[00:40] <Diamondcite> For me after changing the format of a drive, I had to disconnect and reconnect it
[00:41] <fisch246> this is the last thing i need to do and my computer is about as secure as it can get...
[00:41] <W3ird_N3rd> RubenAlonzo, if your drive isn't formatted yet, you need to format it first.
[00:41] <W3ird_N3rd> an external harddrive off the shelf might be pre-formatted
[00:41] <RubenAlonzo> W3ird, 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-cautious
[00:42] <RubenAlonzo> i'm still new to ubuntu
[00:42] <p_res> W3ird_N3rd: I think they're all formatted to ntfs by default these days.
[00:42] <RubenAlonzo> and ubuntu is ntfs?
[00:42] <p_res> RubenAlonzo: Use the disk utility.
[00:42] <W3ird_N3rd> p_res, yeah, that's less than ideal, but it'll still work using ntfs3g
[00:42] <gundas> Hi 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] <RubenAlonzo> thanks all
[00:43] <p_res> W3ird_N3rd: Yeah I know. But I use Windows a lot still, but I have had mine formatted to ext4 once before.
[00:43] <W3ird_N3rd> RubenAlonzo, if you also need to access the drive on a windows machine, you probably want it to be NTFS-formatted
[00:43] <p_res> RubenAlonzo: ;-)
[00:43] <wonderful> hello 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] <wonderful> looking for a terminal command
[00:44] <RubenAlonzo> roger 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 pendrive
[00:45] <W3ird_N3rd> RubenAlonzo, if you want the drive NTFS-formatted (and if it isn't out of the box), it's best to format it on Windows
[00:45] <W3ird_N3rd> I'm not even sure if you can NTFS-format a drive on Ubuntu at all
[00:46] <p_res> wonderful: 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] <omacneil> yes you can format a drive as NTFS on ubuntu
[00:46] <RubenAlonzo> well i was wanting the best option to format in, either fat32 or ntfs for use on my little netbook with ubuntu
[00:46] <p_res> RubenAlonzo: Don't use fat32.
[00:47] <RubenAlonzo> roger that. NTFS it is! thanks
[00:47] <omacneil> sudo aptitude install ntfs-3g
[00:47] <p_res> omacneil: It should be installed by default anyway.
[00:47] <W3ird_N3rd> RubenAlonzo, 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 choice
[00:47] <happy_ubuntuer> hi. what is name of package under "Applications -> Sound & Video -> Sound Recorder"? i'd like to remove it
[00:48] <omacneil> p_res: I believe you are correct
[00:48] <RubenAlonzo> thanks W3ird
[00:48] <p_res> omacneil: ;-)
[00:49] <W3ird_N3rd> happy_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_N3rd> if you just want to remove it from the menu
[00:50] <W3ird_N3rd> actually the application is called gnome-sound-recorder, but that's not the package name..
[00:50] <RubenAlonzo> be back shortly, i will see if i can google my way into making my built in  SD Card reader enabled on my netbook
[00:50] <wonderful> thanks p_res :)
[00:50] <Whisky_> I used unetbootin to make a USB drive for Ubuntu and it now says NO OPERATIN SYSTEM FOUND IN PEN DRIVE. REMOVE AND REBOOT. when I try booting via the usb drive.
[00:50] <niko-nojo> Hi room - anyone experienced slower boot time with Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS ?
[00:51] <hiexpo> it's gnome-media
[00:51] <omacneil>  niko-nojo: I have not
[00:51] <W3ird_N3rd> happy_ubuntuer, Sound Recorder is in the "gnome-media" package
[00:51] <happy_ubuntuer> W3ird_N3rd: nope. it's not gnome-sound-recorder.
[00:51] <hiexpo> and it has more than just sound recorder in it
[00:52] <RubenAlonzo> Whiskey, try googliing ubuntu 10.10 netbook remix its what i did to find the loader instructions to install my ubuntu from ped drive
[00:52] <W3ird_N3rd> why do you want to get rid of it anyway? isn't going to save you much disk space
[00:52] <happy_ubuntuer> W3ird_N3rd: okay, i'll leave it as it's needed by ubuntu-desktop.
[00:52] <niko-nojo> omacneil - other than using a stopwatch is there an easy way to measure
[00:52] <RubenAlonzo> pen drive*
[00:52] <Whisky_> RubenAlonzo: thanks :)
[00:52] <joelixny> does anyone know how to remove the monitor "tags" that show up when I plug in a second monitor?
[00:53] <omacneil>  niko-nojo:  You might look at the logs , they come timestamped
[00:53] <joelixny> those colored boxes with the monitor's name
[00:53] <michal_> ?
[00:53] <Polah> I wonder if Java would like if I specified Xmx is bytes
[00:54] <Polah> Oops
[00:54] <niko-nojo> omacneil - its possible I have move applications/services running at start-up
[00:54] <Tyrantelf> I have server older computers sitting around, would it be possible to cluster them and run a java program (specifically a minecraft server) off of them?
[00:54] <W3ird_N3rd> happy_ubuntuer, if you don't mind sharing, why do you want to remove sound recorder?
[00:54] <niko-nojo> omacneil - gona test out bootchart
[00:54] <omacneil>  niko-nojo: yes , that seems a good place to look
[00:54] <happy_ubuntuer> W3ird_N3rd: annoying position in my menu, which i am not currently using :) but nvm
[00:55] <hiexpo> happy_ubuntuer, you can edit themenu
[00:55] <W3ird_N3rd> happy_ubuntuer, right-click "Applications" in the corner of your screen
[00:55] <W3ird_N3rd> "edit menus"
[00:55] <Jasonn> how do i move a file through terminal?
[00:55] <Jasonn> folder*
[00:55] <Warwolt> Hi, I'm using Ubuntu (latest version) and I'm trying to get JACK server to run, but It won't let me  because "the playback device "hw:0" is already in use. Please stop the application using it and run JACK again". How do I shut down the playback device?
[00:56] <W3ird_N3rd> Jasonn, mv -r
[00:56] <happy_ubuntuer> hiexpo, W3ird_N3rd: thanks
[00:56] <jack_^> D:
[00:56] <Whisky_> I used unetbootin to make a USB drive for Ubuntu and it now says NO OPERATIN SYSTEM FOUND IN PEN DRIVE. REMOVE AND REBOOT. when I try booting via the usb drive.
[00:56] <happy_ubuntuer> done
[00:56] <hiexpo> happy_ubuntuer, you can move it or untick it so itdon't show up in it
[00:57] <numpy> Jasonn, you can use the 'cp' and 'mv' commands. (no quotes)
[00:57] <Jasonn> W3ird_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/end
[00:57] <hiexpo> Whisky_, did you format it firstand what file system did you format it as
[00:57] <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] <edbian> Warwolt, What programs are you running right now?  Flash in the browser?  Banshee?  Rhythmbox?
[00:58] <W3ird_N3rd> Jasonn, I was wrong, you don't need -r
[00:58] <W3ird_N3rd> you can just mv blaat blaat2
[00:58] <Whisky_> hiexpo: Yes NTFS :S
[00:58] <Jasonn> ok
[00:58] <Jasonn> thanks
[00:58] <W3ird_N3rd> mv file /home/server/end
[00:58] <Whisky_> omacneil: The ISO has been broken down in the drive
[00:58] <Warwolt> edbian: I'm using flash in the browser yeah, should I quit that?
[00:58] <edbian> Warwolt, Quit everything that makes sound.
[00:58] <edbian> Warwolt, (yes)
[00:58] <hiexpo> Whisky_, did you do a md5sum on the iso
[00:59] <Whisky_> hiexpo: Yes. It works fine (wubi etc. on windows)
[01:00] <W3ird_N3rd> Jasonn, yw
[01:00] <forkk13> Sup guys
[01:00] <W3ird_N3rd> sup homie
[01:00] <hiexpo> Whisky_, shouldn't it have been formated as fat
[01:00] <forkk13> Not much, hbu?
[01:01] <W3ird_N3rd> all good bro
[01:01] <edbian> hiexpo, Whisky_ Ubuntu should not be installed on a FAT partition.  (only extX)
[01:01] <Jasonn> forkk13: dont mean to be mean, but please limit the converstion in here to help-only
[01:01] <Warwolt> edbian: seems to work now altough I don't have any sound in the browswer anymore. Maybe thats normal? Trying to get a Supercollider server running
[01:01] <hiexpo> edbian, was talking about his usb
[01:02] <edbian> Warwolt, I can't really help configuring JACK.  It's... complicated ;)
[01:02] <edbian> hiexpo, You should put ext on the usb drive.
[01:02] <forkk13> Jasonn: Ok, will do
[01:02] <joelixny> Can someone help me with a problem with my monitors?
[01:02] <fisch246> what does the fi command do in shell?
[01:02] <Warwolt> edbian: so its more or less "go google it you bastard ;)". Thanks for the help!
[01:02] <aeon-ltd> fisch246: 'man fi' to find out
[01:03] <fisch246> i need to know since none of you are helping me -__- trying to figure this code out myself...
[01:03] <edbian> Warwolt, No hard feelings!  :)  I just don't know how to configure JACK.
[01:03] <W3ird_N3rd> fisch246, fi in a script ands an if
[01:03] <hiexpo> edbian, i have always formated the usbto fat for all file systems and never had a problem with booting the iso image butmaybe i just lucky
[01:03] <W3ird_N3rd> *ands=ends
[01:03] <nanodano> Does anyone else have trouble with Ubuntu connecting using your network card every once in a while? Sometimes I will have to turn thec omputer completely off before it works again
[01:03] <edbian> fisch246, It just ends an if statement.  http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2010/06/bash-if-statement-examples/
[01:04] <edbian> hiexpo, Really?!  Maybe Ubuntu can do something I didn't know.  You're right.
[01:04] <fisch246> yea that's what i thought it did... which makes me even more confused...
[01:04] <Yoinx> confused about what fisch?
[01:05] <W3ird_N3rd> fisch246, you probably need to share the script so we can be confused about it too. :P
[01:05] <Warwolt> Why is Ubuntu so complicated compared to other OS? :C
[01:05] <W3ird_N3rd> Warwolt, it isn't
[01:05] <Yoinx> compared to what other OS?
[01:05] <Warwolt> All I've tried
[01:05] <hiexpo> Warwolt, ubuntu is the easiest
[01:05] <Yoinx> Then you've been trying some weird OS's
[01:05] <edbian> Warwolt, It has more choices and therefore more complication.  (Nobody is forcing you to install / configure JACK)
[01:06] <W3ird_N3rd> Yoinx, 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 problems
[01:06] <Yoinx> Ubuntu is one of the better distro's of linux out there.
[01:06] <edbian> Warwolt, Why do you want JACK in the first place?
[01:06]  * Warwolt is going to blame the OS and not is nonadequate knowledge
[01:06] <jack_^> damn you. you're blowing up my notifications. :P heh
[01:06] <Warwolt> edbian: Because Supercollider uses JACK, apparantly, for its output
[01:06] <Yoinx> What's JACK?
[01:06] <hiexpo> lol jack
[01:07] <jack_^> >_<
[01:07] <fisch246> http://pastebin.com/j709SJZ6
[01:07] <fisch246> there
[01:07] <edbian> Warwolt, Lemme research Supercollider
[01:07] <Warwolt> Why is "lol Jack"?
[01:07] <Warwolt> Supercollider is a music software
[01:07] <oneliner> is it possible that unrar free "discards" files from rar archives?
[01:07] <W3ird_N3rd> Warwolt, jack is getting highlighted because the word "jack" is used here while not referring to jack the person
[01:07] <jack_^> :/
[01:07] <numpy> fisch246, what is the problem with the script?
[01:08] <Yoinx> That script looks pretty pointless fisch.
[01:08] <Warwolt> edbian: Wait how do I get sound back to the browser after I killed it?
[01:08] <fisch246> the guide wants me to change printf "menuentry '${title}' ${CLASS} {\n" "${os}" "${version}"
[01:08] <W3ird_N3rd> I need jack cable. I must have a jack-cable laying around here somewhere
[01:08] <hiexpo> oneliner, what you trying to do with unrarfree
[01:08] <edbian> Warwolt, You got the ubuntu PPA from here?  http://supercollider.sourceforge.net/downloads/
[01:08] <numpy> fisch246, cause its like wrong
[01:08] <Yoinx> what are you trying to figure out with it?
[01:08] <rubyz1> hi. how can i speed up my mouse wheel scroll speed - help! google and ubuntu forums say that is impossible to do!
[01:08] <Warwolt> edbian: Yeah, I've got Supercollider up and running.
[01:08] <edbian> Warwolt, so Supercollider works no problems?
[01:08] <Warwolt> edbian: I followed this http://artfwo.blogspot.com/2008/05/supercollider-for-human-beings.html and got stuck in the part with getting JACK running but now i got.
[01:09] <fisch246> it wants me to change it to this http://pastebin.com/w2LndYbF
[01:09] <Yoinx> Warwolt, you might wanna find a newer guide... that one's almost 3 years old
[01:09] <Warwolt> edbian: well when I try to get {SinOsc.ar}.play; running then I get "WARNING: server 'localhost' not running." from getid. But thats probably out of your expertice.
[01:10] <fisch246> i'm following this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1369019
[01:10] <edbian> Warwolt, Ever seen this article before?  http://www.tuxradar.com/content/how-it-works-linux-audio-explained   linux audio is complicated.
[01:10] <Warwolt> Yoinx: I'm not sure these a newer one
[01:10] <Gooch> Curious but can somebody explain how to get my hp dv4 remote to work?  It appears I have to mess with a script
[01:10] <Warwolt> edbian: I just got Linux up and running last week so, no. I'll read it now.
[01:10] <Gooch> and that makes me nervous
[01:10] <Yoinx> You migh tbe right war
[01:10] <hiexpo> oneliner, also install unrar non free and rar  or it won;t work right
[01:10] <Warwolt> edbian: how do I get sound back to my browser?
[01:11] <fisch246> i'm trying to password protect the recovery menu option in grub
[01:11] <edbian> Warwolt, I'm trying to figure that out right now.  Can you pastebin the output of ps -e   (it lists all currently running processes)
[01:11] <Warwolt> edbian: thats a pretty long list sir
[01:11] <fisch246> unless anyone knows of a better guide?
[01:11] <edbian> Warwolt, I'm aware.  pastebin it
[01:12] <fisch246> any help would be welcome
[01:12] <Yoinx> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-set-grub-2-password-protection.html
[01:12] <edbian> Warwolt, Also, first things first, did you try simply restarting the browser?
[01:12] <Warwolt> edbian: yepp
[01:12] <Warwolt> edbian:how do I pastebin? Just ctrl v?
[01:12] <fisch246> Yoinx: thanks :)
[01:12] <edbian> Warwolt, www.pastebin.com
[01:12] <Yoinx> np, it should be easier than what you're trying to do
[01:13] <edbian> Warwolt, Go there, paste the output into the box, hit submit, give me the link.
[01:13] <edbian> Warwolt, I think there is an Ubuntu version.  pastebin.ubuntu.com
[01:13] <Warwolt> edbian: neat website! http://pastebin.com/Btpnj6Qk
[01:13] <edbian> Warwolt, Yes it's amazing.
[01:14] <Highlyevolved> hello people can some one help me with wireless card problem
[01:14] <Guest22246> is there any best method for binding f-keys to brightness, volume etc?
[01:14] <Jordan_U> Warwolt: Ubuntu Studio comes with jack configured by default, and is probably generally a better starting point if you're interested in real time low latency audio processing.
[01:15] <Warwolt> Jordan_U: I'm using a XP partition for my serious audiowork, but I'd like to experiment a bit with software on the linux partition
[01:15] <edbian> Warwolt, Well JACK insisted your flash player stop making noise so lets kill it and try again.  (Can anything make noise for you right now?)
[01:15] <Highlyevolved> I have ubunt 10.10 on my Hp pavillion dv6000 and the wireless card is not recieving any connections and a message is displaying "device not ready" (Firmware missing) can someone help me?
[01:15] <nateddgg> Hi, anyone know how i can resize my Ubuntu Portable Remix so its bigger then 1g?
[01:15] <edbian> nateddgg, Yeah use a live CD.
[01:15] <edbian> Highlyevolved, Can you pastebin the output of dmesg ??
[01:16] <IvoV> can anyone tell me how to create one workspace spanning two monitors in ubuntu 10.04? I'm using nouveau and compiz (no nvidia)
[01:16] <Highlyevolved> Yes one second
[01:16] <Yoinx> iretch,  System>Preferences>Keyboard Shortcuts... dont know if f keys can be used though
[01:16] <Warwolt> edbian: No, I don't think so
[01:16] <Gooch> So I have two questions, how can I get my hp dv4 multimedia remote to work? and I am managing my friends music career and need something like apple's garage band, and a music creation program similar to finale.
[01:16] <edbian> Warwolt, Kill jack, the command -> killall jackd
[01:16] <jgcampbell300> can somone help me getthis right     sudo addgroup Domain Admins
[01:16] <nateddgg> edbian: you dont think toporesize might work?

[01:17] <iretch> yoinx ill look into that thanks
[01:17] <Yoinx> Gooch, try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1500653
[01:17] <pentester> any of you check out the new black ubuntu?
[01:17] <edbian> nateddgg, I have no idea what toporesize does.  gparted is my tried and true method.  You need a live CD because you can't edit partitions that are mounted.
[01:17] <Yoinx> for the remote anyway.
[01:17] <edbian> pentester, link?
[01:17] <pentester> one sec
[01:18] <blue112> Hi here.
[01:18] <silverlightning> does anyone know what this message might mean, and what to do about it? I get it when I use Gnome media player in lubuntu Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_nvidia.so:
[01:18] <Gooch> Thanks! one question down! One to go!
[01:18] <jgcampbell300> can somone help me getthis right     sudo addgroup Domain Admins ... it keeps trying to switch the domain user to admins ... i need to create a group called Domain  Admins
[01:18] <Yoinx> Gooch, try http://lilypond.org/ for the other thing
[01:18] <blue112> I don't understand why my laptop, pretty new, running on ubuntu 10.10 reach very high CPU temperatures without much thing on it (about 95°C with just music and a flashplayer in a browser running)
[01:19] <Yoinx> gooch, I posted for both questions.
[01:19] <Whisky_> Formatted my pendrive in exFAT and used unetbootin for 10.10 but when I try booting it it says no operating system on pen drive...remove and reboot :(
[01:19] <aeon-ltd> blue112: flash, problem solved
[01:19] <silverlightning> blue112, very common with ubuntu and laptops
[01:19] <Gooch> thanks!
[01:19] <Yoinx> just in two separate spots, scroll up
[01:19] <edbian> blue112, flash player is pretty intensive.  Is your fan dirty / blocked?
[01:19] <aeon-ltd> blue112: 90% of laptops are like that
[01:19] <System_Default_1> blue112: That's normal on new computers.
[01:19] <applejuice> but flash isnt normally that bad..
[01:19] <Yoinx> silver, first link from google. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/gnome-mplayer-error-802571/ for the exact thing you typed
[01:19] <Gooch> Any recommended programs for actually recording?
[01:19] <blue112> Wow, many answer
[01:20] <Highlyevolved> ebian here is the pastbin of the dmesg http://pastebin.com/GkWxRkCG
[01:20] <coi> anyone know if it is possible to get the pdf viewer in chromium?
[01:20] <pentester> sorry for the wait, sourceforge.net/projects/blackbuntu
[01:20] <applejuice> blue112: install cpufrequtils if its not installed already. it helped me
[01:20] <blue112> edbian, my fan is really clean, I've open my laptop two days ago.
[01:20] <blue112> applejuice, that's the set-cpufreq command ?
[01:20] <Yoinx> Gooch, try googling "Linux alternatives for (insert software here )"
[01:20] <Yoinx> you'll get plenty of options.
[01:20] <silverlightning> aeon-ltd, 90 % is a bit much? more like 30 %
[01:20] <System_Default_1> blue112: My laptop reaches hight temperatures too. I bought it 2 years ago.
[01:20] <System_Default_1> high*
[01:20] <silverlightning> thanks Yoinx
[01:21] <blue112> System_Default_1, I bought it about 7 months ago :/
[01:21] <Gooch> good idea! thanks a bunch.
[01:21] <applejuice> blue112: not sure what you mean, but it regulates your cpu freq so that your comp isnt running at full speed when it doesnt need to
[01:21] <Warwolt> Right now I'm just considering to switch back to XP completely :c
[01:21] <edbian> Warwolt, Don't give up :)
[01:21] <edbian> Warwolt, Did you kill jack?
[01:21] <naryfa> lol
[01:21] <blue112> applejuice, ok, it's wasn't installed actually. It is now. How can I check if it works good ?
[01:21] <pentester> why would u go back to xp
[01:22] <jack_^> D:
[01:22] <Warwolt> edbian: Don't know how to do that
[01:22] <Yoinx> Why warwolt?
[01:22] <Highlyevolved> I have ubunt 10.10 on my Hp pavillion dv6000 and the wireless card is not recieving any connections and a message is displaying "device not ready" (Firmware missing) can someone help me? here is the pastbin of the dmesg http://pastebin.com/GkWxRkCG
[01:22] <applejuice> blue112: restart your computer, open up the same tabs and see if your temp is lower now
[01:22] <edbian> Warwolt, killall jackd
[01:22] <blue112> edbian, why is flashplayer so intensive ?
[01:22] <jgcampbell300> ok so sudo addgroup "Domain Admins" dosnt work and sudo addgroup 'Domain Admins' dosnt work ...  even tryed sudo addgroup $Domain Admins$
[01:22] <Warwolt> Yoinx: Because everything I've been trying to do the last couple of hours I'd have gotten done in 20 minutes on XP
[01:22] <edbian> Warwolt, That should kill all processes with that name.  If you run ps -e again you'll see they should all be gone.
[01:22] <applejuice> blue112: 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 ubuntu
[01:22] <System_Default_1> Well, I think Windows XP is good option for graphical design, rendering and gaming.
[01:22] <edbian> blue112, Because adobe wrote a lousy version for linux.
[01:23] <applejuice> weird thing is, i see better flash performance on linux than i do on windows 7
[01:23] <edbian> blue112, Unfortunately it's the most complete version for linux
[01:23] <Stryker> Warwolt, go to the #opensourcemusicians channel and get some help from people who actually know what ur talking about
[01:23] <System_Default_1> Why can't I do those things in Ubuntu?
[01:23] <Yoinx> highly, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[01:23] <Warwolt> Stryker: Thanks
[01:23] <pentester> those things?
[01:23] <Yoinx> looks like you need to install the drivers for it, since it's not finding them.
[01:23] <blue112> edbian, I'm running a debug version of flashplayer, can this make thing worse ?
[01:23] <System_Default_1> 3D Acceleration problems, or maybe libraries, drivers?
[01:23] <edbian> blue112, i don't know
[01:23] <Whisky_> anyone?
[01:23] <Whisky_> Formatted my pendrive in exFAT and used unetbootin for 10.10 but when I try booting it it says no operating system on pen drive...remove and reboot :(
[01:24] <Sonja> chromium on ubuntu claims flash is out of date even though i updated flash
[01:24] <Yoinx> cant format it in exfat to boot off of it IIRC>
[01:24] <Yoinx> should be fat 16/32
[01:24] <blue112> Ok, let me reboot.
[01:24] <blue112> Thanks applejuice and edbian =)
[01:24] <pentester> fat32 is the better one at the moment
[01:24] <edbian> blue112, good luck
[01:24] <applejuice> blue112: no problem hope it works
[01:25] <Yoinx> yeah, id do fat32... just saying bioses usually dont recognize exfat... just the previous two.
[01:25] <Warwolt> edbian: Got sound back on firefox. Thanks!
[01:25] <rockets> Is Wubi now Windows 7 x64 compatible? It wasn't for a long time.
[01:25] <edbian> Warwolt, awesome.  Don't give up :)
[01:25] <jgcampbell300> %domain\ admins
[01:25] <pentester> linux might be hard the first try, but it's well worth the effort
[01:26] <rockets> pentester, I think it is for some people, not for others.
[01:26] <System_Default_1> How the hell can I get "Software Rasterizer"?
[01:26] <Whisky_> Yoinx: Thanks. Let me try that
[01:26] <Yoinx> It also depends what you're trying to do with it.
[01:26] <Yoinx> If you're developing... pretty much anything... It's full of win.
[01:26] <coi> pentester, how is blackbuntu different from the rest?
[01:27] <blue112> back.
[01:27] <pentester> I think for the first time touching it, know matter who you are, you have to put a moderate amount of effort in to get things to work, unless you get a linux out of the box machine
[01:27] <blue112> I'm at 82° at startup, with just XChat and a terminal launched... Is that normal ?
[01:27] <applejuice> blue112: are you sure it's 82 degrees celsius? cause that is HOT
[01:27] <Highlyevolved> I have Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4322 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:4311] (rev 02) how can I install the firmware so that this works?
[01:27] <blue112> applejuice, yep, this is 82°C
[01:27] <Highlyevolved> I have Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4322 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:4311] (rev 02) how can I install the firmware so that this works? I'm on Ubuntu 10.10
[01:27] <blue112> Well, it's going down...
[01:27] <blue112> temp1:       +74.4°C  (high = +70.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
[01:28] <Yoinx> Highly, I pasted a link for you on how to do it... like 20 minutes ago.
[01:28] <applejuice> blue112: that is crazy.. do you have a windows partition by any chance?
[01:28] <pentester> coi: blackbuntu seems to be the ubuntu version of BT. honestly im a fan of the Ubuntu Gnome setup instead of the slackware setup because i dont have much time to fiddle around as i use to
[01:28] <blue112> applejuice, I have a windows hard drive.
[01:28] <edbian> Highlyevolved, Connect to the internet some other way.  run this: sudo apt-get install fwcutter
[01:28] <blue112> (I can switch them)
[01:28] <Yoinx> highly, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[01:28] <Warwolt> skoj
[01:28] <Highlyevolved> thanks for spoon feeding me :D
[01:28] <coi> pentester, contains all the tools?
[01:28] <coi> same tools
[01:28] <Yoinx> It's a common issue... so much so that they have a titled page for it :p
[01:28] <applejuice> blue112: uh, if its possible, you could try booting into windows and use coretemp to see what the normal temp should be for your laptop
[01:29] <blue112> applejuice, coretemp ?
[01:29] <coi> pentester, is it ubuntu with just a set of additional packages?
[01:29] <applejuice> blue112: its the name of a program
[01:29] <System_Default_1> Mozilla Firefox is not saving my custom configuration.
[01:29] <pentester> coi: i havent checked 1 for 1 yet but its damn close if not even
[01:29] <blue112> It that a windows included software ?
[01:29] <blue112> It's a soft I have to download separatly ?
[01:29] <System_Default_1> --Set state: 256--
[01:29] <applejuice> blue112: no, you have to download it, but its a pretty good program
[01:29] <Yoinx> blue, just jump into the bios and look at your temp there.
[01:29] <blue112> applejuice, the temp keep going down... 61.5°C now.
[01:30] <applejuice> blue112: oooh, thats good. still running the same apps though?
[01:30] <blue112> applejuice, and the fan is less noisy.
[01:30] <blue112> applejuice, nop, I have just xchat and terminal now.
[01:30] <applejuice> blue112: hopefully cpufrequtils is doing its thing. but just warning you, im not a linux expert like some of the guys here
[01:30] <blue112> I had a huge flash app and music launched, before that.
[01:30] <applejuice> so my advice should be taken with a grain of salt
[01:30] <pentester> coi: not it seems to be modded slightly, alot of packages were taken off, some of there personal packages were added. and more than enough tools to keep anyone happy on the forensics side
[01:30] <applejuice> then its prob the flash
[01:30] <applejuice> but it still shouldnt make it that hot..
[01:31] <blue112> It's moving between 60 and 62°
[01:31] <Yoinx> yeah, flash sits at like 80-95% cpu use while its going
[01:31] <ajanthakariyawas> I m using Ubuntu I cant open web page through Fire fox . Can anybody help me?
[01:31] <blue112> applejuice, Let me launch all that apps again
[01:31] <skullboy> ok im trying to sync my phone but when i do it dectects a auto eth0
[01:31] <Yoinx> so, that's probably why it was so hight.
[01:31] <illmortal1> lol is it just me.. or has ubuntu gotten more difficult to troubleshoot lately?
[01:31] <cerberos> Nothing in /etc/rc2.d/S2* is starting at boot, everything starts ok when I do it manually. Any ideas (10.04 server)?
[01:31] <applejuice> Yoinx: it's not the cpu though, its his temp thats at 85 degrees
[01:31] <neil_d> ajanthakariyawas: can you ping the site?
[01:31] <pentester> *ignore the not* it was a add in from something i deleted
[01:31] <illmortal1> I can no longer make a live USB instead of a LiveCD lol
[01:31] <Yoinx> yeah... cpus get hot when they're being used at 100%.
[01:31] <ajanthakariyawas> Yes
[01:32] <Yoinx> why not ill?
[01:32] <applejuice> i'm not on ubuntu, but on crunchbang and windows 7, i get up to 60 degrees max when watching flash vids
[01:32] <applejuice> Yoinx: so 85 degrees seems very bad
[01:32] <jgcampbell300> can anyone tell me how to add a user group to ubuntu that has two names ? Domain Admins ?
[01:32] <joe__243> hello do you think ubuntu is lame?
[01:32] <Yoinx> apple, do you use chrome or firefox with flashaid?
[01:32] <edbian> jgcampbell300, What do mean with 2 names?  You want the same group to be called 2 different things?
[01:33] <blue112> applejuice, now 75°...
[01:33] <ajanthakariyawas> I can surf the net but not with Fire fox
[01:33] <applejuice> Yoinx: i use chromium and ive never heard of flashaid. is it good?
[01:33] <Yoinx> supposedly, it helps with the flash CPU use stuff.
[01:33] <System_Default_1> jgcampbell300: System > Administration > Users and Groups
[01:33] <applejuice> blue112: 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] <jgcampbell300> edbian, no ... i need one group called Domain Admins but i am having trouble getting the command right
[01:33] <applejuice> Yoinx: I'll check that out, thanks
[01:33] <jgcampbell300> System_Default_1, it is server
[01:33] <edbian> jgcampbell300, You cannot have spaces in group names.  Do something like this: Domain_Admins
[01:33] <Yoinx> I know chrome with the 64bit flash lib, Im usually at 70%+ cpu use... just for chrome
[01:34] <Yoinx> firefox/flashaid it's usually around like 30-40%
[01:34] <jgcampbell300> edbian, ok thanks for that ... no wonder i couldnt find a way that worked
[01:34] <blue112> applejuice, mokay :/
[01:34] <System_Default_1> jgcampbell300: Sorry. --A.V-- 0xc0782a.
[01:34] <applejuice> Yoinx: just tried watching some youtube vids and I'm only seeing CPU usage at 30 to 40% and thats without flashaid
[01:34] <applejuice> temp is 47 degrees
[01:34] <joe__243> hej! finns det nåra svennefanskap her?
[01:35] <Yoinx> are you using the 64 bit lib, or the default ones in chrome?
[01:35] <jgcampbell300> System_Default_1, umm what was that
[01:35] <ajanthakariyawas> neil_d can you help me?
[01:35] <Yoinx> or are you talking firefox?
[01:35] <Pranav_rcmas2> Can stuff be compiled from source in ntfs partitions?
[01:35] <applejuice> chromium, 32 bit. but im not on ubuntu
[01:35] <Yoinx> ahh, well thats why
[01:35] <Yoinx> this only happens on ubuntu
[01:35] <joe__243> inga svenska grabbar?
[01:35] <neil_d> ajanthakariyawas: I don't know, can you ping the site?
[01:35] <syrinx_> joe__243: english
[01:35] <Yoinx> ...don't know why... and it's taking them forever to fix it
[01:36] <philip_> Hello Joe i can help you
[01:36] <applejuice> Yoinx: What's only on Ubuntu? I'm on linux, just not ubuntu
[01:36] <joe__243> thank yo philip kan du översätta till dom andra o säga att jag behöver hjälp
[01:36] <ajanthakariyawas> neil_d How to ping ?
[01:36] <Yoinx> the flash thing. I've only heard of it on ubuntu (guess it could be on others)
[01:36] <joe__243> philip will say on enlish wat i need
[01:36] <Auriga> applejuice, What are you running?
[01:36] <joe__243> min dator är jättevarm, vad skall jag göra!?!?
[01:36] <Yoinx> same processes, *shrug*
[01:36] <applejuice> Interesting. I haven't been on ubuntu for a while
[01:36] <joshdreamland> I have like, 30,000 processes open at startup. It takes gnome-panel ten seconds to load. How do I get rid of this crap?
[01:36] <neil_d> ajanthakariyawas: first open a terminal.
[01:37] <applejuice> Auriga: Crunchbang Statler
[01:37] <joshdreamland> This is something I'd expect of Windows.
[01:37] <syrinx_> !english | joe__243
[01:37] <Yoinx> josh, there's a startup manager
[01:37] <joe__243> im sorry i go home from this chat no im sorry
[01:37] <philip_> Joe here my frend want some help he has deleted the papperskorg
[01:37] <ajanthakariyawas> neil_d ok
[01:37] <Auriga> applejuice, Isn't CrunchBang based on Ubuntu too?
[01:37] <joe__243> yes! plese help!
[01:37] <neil_d> ajanthakariyawas: are you having trouble with one site or all?
[01:37] <joshdreamland> http://pastebin.com/THAeP5PZ
[01:38] <Yoinx> system > Preferences > startup applications
[01:38] <applejuice> Auriga: it was, but after 9.04, it switched to debian. I like it better with Debian actually, cause it still uses apt but it also lets me make it rolling release
[01:38] <ajanthakariyawas> I cant open pages through Firefox
[01:38] <rockets> Anybody try using Unity on a full laptop or desktop? Any good/bad experiences?
[01:39] <[thor]> philip_ / joe__243 : is there a support channel in your native language? for example: #ubuntu-cn for chinese, or #ubuntu-ru for russian?
[01:39] <Auriga> applejuice, I took a brief look at it last year some time as I heard it was lighter than other distros while still keeping functionality... But I didn't last long with it...
[01:39] <ajanthakariyawas> Neil_d I cant open pages through firefox
[01:39] <Auriga> applejuice, have you played with Arch or Slitaz by any chance?
[01:39] <Pranav_rcmas2> Can I use an external ntfs partition from Ubuntu to clone repos and build them?
[01:39] <joe__243> it does no seem that way i using google translate now i need help i deleted the papperskorgen
[01:39] <System_Default_1> *Calling for procedure...
[01:39] <System_Default_1> Disconnecting from i-bus
[01:39] <System_Default_1> System is going down for halt NOW!
[01:40] <applejuice> Auriga: What stopped you from keeping CB? I wanted to play with Arch, but I never find the time to. ANd I heard it's harder, aha.
[01:40] <visual1ce> hi
[01:40] <blue112> 80°C
[01:40] <blue112> .___.
[01:40] <Hodr> I have 3 DNS Zones setup in Ispconfig 3, but it seems that only 1 of the 3 is working
[01:40] <neil_d> ajanthakariyawas: in the terminal try "ping google.com" and see if you get some lines printing out
[01:40] <[thor]> joe__243: /join #ubuntu-se
[01:40] <joe__243> tank ju so much how i do it?
[01:40] <ccvvcc> how can i see hardware information from terminal
[01:40] <Gnea> !crunchbag
[01:41] <Auriga> applejuice, I use Ubuntu, & I like it a lot. As to CB I was just playing around with it. I think there was too much Basketball at the time or something, time constraints... Arch is harder, I'm playing with it as we speak...
[01:41] <[thor]> joe: type that command exactly as it is in the chat window
[01:41] <edbian> ccvvcc, lspci
[01:41] <joe__243> #ubuntu-se
[01:41] <[thor]> joe__243: /join #ubuntu-se
[01:41] <visual1ce> how can i tell whether an external usb device is usb1 or usb2?
[01:41] <Auriga> applejuice, Arch doesn't have a WM, you have to install one after install.
[01:41] <joe__243> thank ju bye bye  have it good
[01:41] <joe__243>  /join #ubuntu-se
[01:41] <applejuice> Auriga: That's awesome. If you can play with arch, you can definitely play with crunchbang
[01:42] <[thor]> joe__243: no space at front
[01:42] <joe__243> thank ju again bye
[01:42] <Auriga> applejuice, 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] <applejuice> Auriga: 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] <applejuice> Auriga: Never really found out what slitaz was like.
[01:43] <Auriga> applejuice, 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] <Auriga> applejuice, But it is taking it's time though.
[01:44] <applejuice> Auriga: Hahaha, I love your reasoning. :D
[01:44] <illmortal1> Does 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)
[01:45] <blue112> Well, so my CPU is high because of flash :/ ?
[01:45] <blue112> can't I say to the fan "cool harder" ?
[01:45] <Auriga> applejuice, 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] <applejuice> blue112: I still feel like theres something else at work though, because a new laptop shouldnt be at 65 degrees evenw ithout flash
[01:46] <applejuice> Auriga: I might just do that if I have the time and can get off my lazy butt, hahaha
[01:46] <Auriga> Lol.
[01:46] <Auriga> applejuice, Go set up a VM!
[01:46] <blue112> applejuice, it's at 81 now :/
[01:46] <blue112> applejuice, how can I see that ?
[01:46] <ajanthakariyawas> neil_d yes I can ping
[01:47] <alecbenzer> in 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] <Yoinx> ill, if a mobo boots of usb, it boots off USB, it doesnt care what it's booting.
[01:47] <xangua> alecbenzer: then don't upgrade to alpha stuff
[01:47] <applejuice> Auriga: Alright, but only if you promise to try CB again sometime. :P
[01:47] <Yoinx> ...unless it's an apple motherboard >.>
[01:48] <applejuice> Blue112: See what? Hey, open up your system manager or whatever ubuntu has and see which processes are taking up the most of your cpu resources
[01:48] <blue112> Yoinx, was that apple troll :p ?
[01:48] <blue112> applejuice, is top ok too :p ?
[01:48] <applejuice> blue112: top is fine. :)
[01:48] <blue112> top says : plugin-container => 110% CPU
[01:48] <Yoinx> nah, just saying... their mobo's (whatever brand they actually are) would care what they're booting.
[01:48] <blue112>  then rythmbox => 8%
[01:48] <alecbenzer> xangua: 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] <blue112> Then  xorg and pulseaudio
[01:48] <Auriga> applejuice, I will tomorrow maybe, I promisish...
[01:49] <blue112> with 5% and 3%
[01:49] <jenia> How 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] <applejuice> blue112: so it's plugin-container then. i just looked it up, it has something to do with firefox. kill it for now
[01:49] <applejuice> blue112: and then see what your temp is after that.
[01:49] <blue112> applejuice, ok, let's do that.
[01:49] <applejuice> blue112: what are your specs? like processor, ram. gpu?
[01:49] <Auriga> applejuice, Will posting a link get me kicked?
[01:49] <blue112> Killed.
[01:49] <rubin110> Is there a way I can have an ubuntu machine get its hostname over DHCP?
[01:50] <applejuice> Auriga: No idea, I'm new to the irc channel, aha.
[01:50] <neil_d> ajanthakariyawas: 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] <Auriga> applejuice, Same to irc in general...
[01:50] <soares> #ubuntu-br
[01:50] <ubuntu__> hy
[01:50] <blue112> applejuice, processor is a dual core AMD, 3GB ram, GPU is ATI (argh) with fglrx drivers.
[01:50] <Auriga> applejuice, Well here is the latest cooking release of Slitaz anyways... http://mirror.slitaz.org/iso/undigest/slitaz-cooking-core.iso
[01:50] <soares> #ubuntu-br
[01:50] <blue112> CPU actually is : AMD Athlon(tm) X2 Dual-Core QL-64
[01:50] <xangua> !ot | Auriga
[01:51] <jenia> rubin110: I think you have to do it by DNS server with DHCP assigning the DNS server's address
[01:51] <applejuice> blue112: better specs than my machine. Could it be your gpu thats making your laptop hot?
[01:51] <applejuice> Auriga: Thanks, reading about slitaz right now
[01:51] <blue112> applejuice, maybe, then how can I fix it ?
[01:51] <ajanthakariyawas> neil_d thanks for your help
[01:51] <blue112> applejuice, I'm not even sure what the temp is related to... I'm using sensors.
[01:51] <tohuw> Why don't cd and echo work via sudo?
[01:51] <jenia> How 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.
[01:52] <applejuice> blue112: sorry, I have no idea how to deal with it. :/ Except for the frustratingly bad answer "make sure drivers are updated"
[01:52] <blue112> applejuice, they are :(
[01:52] <Auriga> applejuice, Sure, just saving you the hassle of going through what I went through with it not working.
[01:52] <applejuice> blue112: whats the temp now that plugin-container is killed?
[01:52] <blue112> applejuice, my fan just reduced its speed, and my temp fall down to 60°
[01:52] <applejuice> Auriga: Thanks, but why wasnti it working?
[01:53] <applejuice> blue112: 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] <Auriga> applejuice, Apparently a bug that was never fixed... That's what I was told by a bug tester.
[01:53] <tohuw> jenia: Try redirecting stderror. ./your_script 2 > output
[01:53] <applejuice> blue112: maybe try posting in the ubuntu forums?
[01:53] <Auriga> applejuice, He is the one who gave me that link just now.
[01:53] <blue112> applejuice, I don't know then :/
[01:53] <Yoinx> The flash one? It's well documented.
[01:53] <blue112> applejuice, I don't like forums...
[01:53] <applejuice> Auriga: Ouch, sounds bad. I see that slitaz uses openbox? awesme. :)
[01:53] <Yoinx> And like I said... quite a while ago, your CPU is going to be hot while it's sitting near 100% use.
[01:54] <applejuice> blue112: Why not?
[01:54] <blue112> applejuice, how can I see what my sensors values referers to ?
[01:54] <Auriga> applejuice, That's more than I remember, I haven't ever seen it boot lol.
[01:54] <applejuice> blue112: Whats the name of the program you're using?
[01:54] <blue112> applejuice, it's slow, and I should keep watching I have answers
[01:54] <armyants> tohuw: they probably built-in's in shell
[01:54] <blue112> applejuice, the package is lmsensors and the command is sensors
[01:54] <blue112> Is there any other ?
[01:55] <blue112> 56° now...
[01:55] <mona> I 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] <jenia> tohuw: so, "2" in "2 >" means to redirect stderror?
[01:55] <blue112> When I look at it, it decreasing, but when I speak here, it goes to 60°
[01:55] <blue112> So I think it won't go lower.
[01:56] <tohuw> jenia: yes
[01:56] <gartral_> I can't get docky too load the Do addon/plugin/feature
[01:56] <tohuw> jenia: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO-3.html
[01:57] <Auriga> applejuice, If you decide to look at Arch there is a page I found that is incredibly useful thusfar.
[01:57] <applejuice> blue112: 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 help
[01:57] <tohuw> jenia: you can also just ./your_script 2>&l to throw all the errors into stdout (the other stuff you're seeing)
[01:57] <applejuice> Auriga: Ooh, link me
[01:57] <jenia> tohuw: 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] <Rogue> anyone know if there is a solution to BUG: scheduling while atomic ?
[01:57] <armyants> tohuw: but it's not reason it not working :/
[01:58] <blue112> applejuice, mkay
[01:58]  * blue112 tries
[01:58] <Auriga> applejuice, That will get me another warning, then probably kicked...
[01:58] <applejuice> Auriga: ahh, anything I can maybe google to pull up the page?
[01:58] <blue112> Anyone here can help me with laptop CPU overheat ? \o/
[01:58] <jenia> tohuw: OK, thanx, got it.
[01:58] <Auriga> applejuice, I just pm'd you.
[01:59] <Yoinx> Yeah blue. Stop using flash in linux... Problem solved :p
[01:59] <Auriga> applejuice, Or what ever the irc equivalent is...
[01:59] <blue112> Yoinx, first of all, I'm a flash developper.
[01:59] <Yoinx> at least in ubuntu, it's been a bug for like 2 years now.
[01:59] <tohuw> jenia: command &> output.txt
[01:59] <blue112> Yoinx, secondly, I'm not using flash for now, and it's still at 60°
[01:59] <blue112> Yoinx, it doesn't happen in debian ?
[02:00] <Yoinx> 60 doesnt sound too bad
[02:00] <Rogue> is there a ubuntu in hyperV channel?
[02:00] <blue112> 60 is kinda hot :/
[02:00] <Yoinx> Dunno, I dont look into much about debian. I just use ubuntu, and know the problem with flash/cpu use has existed for liek 2 years
[02:00] <tohuw> Rogue: not specifically. Ask your question here, someone may know.
[02:00] <blue112> Yoinx, mkay
[02:01] <jenia> Yoinx, 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] <applejuice> Blue112: 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 degrees
[02:01] <Yoinx> i know apple said he doesnt have the issue on whatever distro he's using
[02:01] <Gorilla_No_Baka> hello everyone...
[02:01] <blue112> applejuice, mokay
[02:01] <blue112> applejuice, once, it reach 103° then the computer shut down :(
[02:02] <jenia> tohuw: thanx, I am reading that howto, you gave me.
[02:02] <Rogue> I 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_Wrecka> I'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] <tohuw> jenia: excellent, hth
[02:03] <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] <applejuice> blue112: 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 fine
[02:03] <applejuice> blue112: i'm leaving now, but I hope you find your solution soon! :)
[02:03] <Da_Wrecka> There 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] <Yoinx> but here's a search of launchpad for bug reports... https://launchpad.net/+search?field.text=ubuntu+flash+CPU
[02:03] <gartral_> [did that get cut off?]
[02:03] <blue112> applejuice, I know the terminal, no problem with that
[02:03] <blue112> applejuice, I just can't survive without aptitude :p
[02:03] <uekixx> Hello! i have vps and one IP and also a domain, how can i point my domain to my IP? please help me!
[02:04] <applejuice> blue112: hehehe, thats awesome then. :) I'm out!
[02:04] <Da_Wrecka> Anyone 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.
[02:05] <Gorilla_No_Baka> Hey 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] <uekixx> Hello! 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_Baka> but i had no luck so far.. anny ideas
[02:05] <Da_Wrecka> As 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] <Yoinx> Uek, you need to set it up to point to your IP on your DNS
[02:05] <Gorilla_No_Baka> any ideas on how to make them work on ubuntu
[02:05] <jenia> gartral_: 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.
[02:06] <uekixx> Yoinx: im new, how can i configure my DNS
[02:06] <uekixx> gimme a tutorial
[02:06] <jenia> gartral_: or switch back to windows, just to watch some flash animations
[02:06] <Yoinx> Usually you would do it through wherever you bought the domain from.
[02:07] <Yoinx> Since you probably don't have a DNS server.
[02:07] <Da_Wrecka> Additional: 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 list
[02:08] <uekixx> can i just configure it from my VPS Yoinx
[02:08] <uekixx> no?
[02:08] <Yoinx> dunno, whoever you have your VPS through can probably do it for you, since they typically manage DNS
[02:09] <uekixx> i have a cpanel for it
[02:09] <uekixx> aight ok i'll try config it
[02:09] <Da_Wrecka> nobody have any ideas with Nautilus?
[02:10] <Yoinx> No idea Da_Wrecka, is it a samba share, or nfs?
[02:10] <dustin> hello everyone
[02:10] <dustin> anyone on atm got some time to answer afew ubuntu type questions
[02:10] <Da_Wrecka> Pretty sure it's SMB. I've not set up a NFS daemon on the Windows box
[02:11] <sacarlson> Da_Wrecka: you can select view>show hiden files
[02:11] <dustin> im kinda new to this
[02:11] <aeon-ltd> dustin: ask away
[02:11] <Da_Wrecka> sacarlson: Way ahead of you. Didn't help.
[02:11] <dustin> so i could use alittle help
[02:11] <dustin> okay here's the low down
[02:11] <aeon-ltd> !enter | dustin
[02:11] <Da_Wrecka> sacarlson: And it shouldn't be hiding the entries in question anyway, as they're neither dotfiles, nor marked 'hidden' in Windows.
[02:12] <sacarlson> Da_Wrecka: could be permisions of that user to not see all files maybe start as a sudo user gksudo nautilus  but that can be risky
[02:12] <Da_Wrecka> sacarlson: The same user account has no trouble viewing the files directly on the Windows box
[02:12] <Yoinx> yeah, i'm gonna guess with sacar.
[02:13] <sacarlson> Da_Wrecka: windows box is not the same user
[02:13] <dustin> well i spent like 4days know after i configured my new ubuntu right
[02:13] <dustin> and i see the quake like games they got
[02:13] <dustin> good ones just i miss the old style quake 2
[02:13] <Da_Wrecka> sacarlson: I'm using the same credentials to log on to the Windows share as I use to log into the Windows box directly
[02:13] <gartral_> I can't get docky too load the Do addon/plugin/feature
[02:13] <dustin> and i been trying to find a copy for ubuntu
[02:14] <dustin> anyone got a place to find it
[02:14] <sacarlson> Da_Wrecka: another posibllity is that nautilus need to refresh to view the file
[02:14] <dustin> ive literally searched everywhere for the package
[02:14] <xangua> gartral_: if you mean doky 2, do and doky are no longer one program
[02:14] <Yoinx> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games/Native/Quake2
[02:14] <Da_Wrecka> sacarlson: Way ahead of you again. Refreshing the view with Ctrl-R doesn't help.
[02:14] <Yoinx> Da_Wrecka, have you checked the permissions on a folder that you can see, and one you can't?
[02:15] <Yoinx> Are they the same?
[02:15] <sacarlson> Da_Wrecka: can the files be viewed or seen form the console?  with ls -l
[02:15] <dustin> anyone care to help?
[02:15] <Yoinx> dustin, i just linked it for you.
[02:15] <gartral_> xangua: i understood that, but are they completly seperate? i thought there was still a plugin..
[02:16] <dustin> thanks ALOT yoinx is it easy for loading?
[02:16] <Da_Wrecka> Yoinx: No differences between my Youtube directory and the GameTrailers.com directory. GameTrailers.com shows, Youtube doesn't
[02:16] <brains_> so shocked that IRC still lives
[02:16] <Da_Wrecka> sacarlson: Give me a sec to find out...
[02:16] <dustin> like i mentioned im very new to this  yoinx
[02:16] <Yoinx> Da_Wrecka,  are you actually checking them with chmod, or just looking at them in the properties window?
[02:17] <Yoinx> dustin, shouldnt be too hard, i havent installed it
[02:17] <sabgenton> is there a way to check your runleaves of a prog with update-rc.d
[02:17] <sabgenton> can't see it
[02:17] <dustin> kk
[02:17] <Da_Wrecka> Yoinx: Using the properties window, since Windows doesn't have chmod
[02:17] <dustin> im gonna eat ill talk to you again yoinx
[02:17] <Yoinx> wait....
[02:17] <dustin> thanks alot aeon btw too
[02:18] <dustin> u folks are great
[02:18] <gartral_> brains_: ahhaha.. it's not, we're all bots talking like humans :)
[02:18] <ke1ha> hello 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] <Yoinx> Da_Wrecka, are you having problems getting to it in windows or ubuntu?
[02:18] <Da_Wrecka> sacarlson: The directories involved don't show up in a terminal listing
[02:18] <Yoinx> and where is this share at
[02:18] <brains_> that makes more sense gartral
[02:18] <Da_Wrecka> Yoinx: From Ubuntu. The Windows machine can access every file without issue, it's the Ubuntu one that's having visibility problems
[02:19] <Da_Wrecka> As for 'where is the share at', I'm not quite sure what you mean. Can you clarify?
[02:19] <Yoinx> But you said you can manually type the path and get to them right?
[02:19] <sacarlson> Da_Wrecka: anything not seen with ls will not be seen with nautilus,  nautilus is just a gui for ls and other utility
[02:19] <Da_Wrecka> Yoinx: Right.
[02:19] <Da_Wrecka> sacarlson: Which means the problem is lower-level than I thought
[02:19] <Yoinx> Well, the way you just typed that... I assume the folders are on the windows machine.
[02:19] <sacarlson> Da_Wrecka: sounds like some kind of a samba thing?
[02:19] <Da_Wrecka> Yoinx: They are; I'm trying to access them from the Ubuntu machine over the LAN
[02:20] <Da_Wrecka> And before you ask it's not a signal problem, I'm using CAT5, not wireless.
[02:20] <Frogging101> How 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_Wrecka> sacarlson: Yeah... Okay, so I need to do some more searching I guess
[02:21] <sacarlson> Da_Wrecka: well don't samba mounts show up like anyother with sudo mount ?
[02:21] <Da_Wrecka> sacarlson: Sort of. I'm using the GVFS fuse daemon here. I couldn't get plain old CIFS mounts to work for some reason
[02:22] <skutr34> hey my internal mic isnt working.... it wont record in skype or sound recorder
[02:22] <skutr34> please help
[02:22] <sacarlson> Da_Wrecka: I think gvfs still shows up in mount and you should see the directory where it should have put it
[02:22] <Brando1995> can someone with good linux knowledge pm me and help with my problem?
[02:23] <Da_Wrecka> sacarlson: GVFS has a single mount point at /home/dawrecka/.gvfs. I can get to the mounted shares from there.
[02:23] <Yoinx> Da_Wrecka,  if you can get to them by typing them.. you should be able to do ls -l on them
[02:23] <bastidrazor> Brando1995: you're funny
[02:23] <Yoinx> sorry for the delay, was in a different chan
[02:23] <armyants> !pm | Brando1995
[02:23] <Brando1995> what
[02:24] <skutr34> my mic wont record or anything
[02:24] <Yoinx> I would see if ubuntu is seeing the permissions as the same on them, there might be one missing for listing the files
[02:24] <skutr34> can anyone help me please?
[02:24] <Brando1995> Sorry, so if i am running amd 64 x2 3800 I need to use the amd64 or it wont work right?
[02:24] <Da_Wrecka> Yoinx: 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 should
[02:24] <brains_> #
[02:25] <Da_Wrecka> Brando1995: No, you can use the x86 kernel too. The Athlon64 supports x64 as well as x86.
[02:25] <Brando1995> well which should I use, or does it not matter
[02:25] <bastidrazor> Brando1995: how does common sense not help you at all?
[02:25] <sacarlson> Da_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 yet
[02:25] <Yoinx> that doesnt make any sense Da
[02:25] <skutr34> can anyone help me with my internal mic please it doesnt seem to be working
[02:25] <Da_Wrecka> Yoinx: And yet, that's what's happening
[02:26] <Brando1995> I 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 ram
[02:26] <Da_Wrecka> sacarlson: I did sudo sync, then ls -l; Youtube is still not in the listing
[02:26] <Yoinx> try to just do ls -l VIDEO
[02:26] <Yoinx> wich should show the persmissions on all the subdirs (should be the same as doing it from inside the dir.... but you never know)
[02:27] <illmortal1> Can 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 LiveCD
[02:27] <Da_Wrecka> Yoinx: 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_Wrecka> If I enter ls -l, Youtube is NOT in the list, but GameTrailers.com is.
[02:27] <Da_Wrecka> If I enter ls Youtube -l, then it will list the contents of the Youtube directory just as it should
[02:27] <blue112> !grub2 | illmortal1
[02:27] <Da_Wrecka> But I can't get it to list the Youtube entry itself
[02:27] <illmortal1> lol
[02:28] <blue112> \o/
[02:28] <Yoinx> Yeah, i get that.
[02:28] <illmortal1> been there, done that, blue112
[02:28] <blue112> Doesn't work :p .
[02:28] <blue112> ?
[02:28] <Da_Wrecka> Unless I manually specify the Youtube directory name, I can't view it or list it
[02:28] <illmortal1> well I just went through it.. and I'm currently going through each step in case I missed anything
[02:28] <Yoinx> It still sounds like a problem on the folder itself to me
[02:28] <illmortal1> so I'll confirm once I'm done double checking, blue112
[02:29] <Da_Wrecka> Yoinx: I can't honestly rule it out at this point
[02:29] <phoenixsampras> found a bug!! keyboard stopped to work, needed to reboot horribly
[02:29] <blue112> illmortal1, ok, good luck.
[02:29] <SimboL> hello all
[02:29] <SimboL> i have a problem with my dell laptop.
[02:29] <Da_Wrecka> Go go gadget Google, let's find the syntax for mount.cifs...
[02:29] <sacarlson> Da_Wrecka: can't you just cd ~/Youtube; ls -l ?  seems it mounted the directory where you didn't expect it
[02:29] <SimboL> i have installed Ubuntu but my cooler does not stop
[02:30] <skutr34> can someone help me my internal mic isnt working gateway md2419u
[02:30] <SimboL> is there any help??
[02:30] <Da_Wrecka> sacarlson: 'bash: cd: /home/dawrecka/Youtube: No such file or directory'
[02:31] <Hodr> Please help me with this before I pull my hair out, I have 3 domains set up in ISPconfig, all with the same DNS entry's (other then the fact they point to different domains) and only 2 out of 3 work
[02:31] <sabgenton> is there a way to check your runleaves of a prog with update-rc.d
[02:31] <sabgenton> can't see it
[02:31] <sacarlson> Da_Wrecka: sudo -s ; ls -l; cd /home/dwrecka/Youtube ?
[02:32] <skutr34> can anyone help me please?
[02:32] <Da_Wrecka> sacarlson: sudo -s performs as ordered, however the ls -l throws up "ls: cannot open directory .: Permission denied"
[02:33] <Da_Wrecka> Which is SERIOUSLY messed-up, last I checked; I thought root had unrestricted access to everything no matter what
[02:33] <tsimpson> Da_Wrecka: because you're not running ls as root
[02:33] <Guest36550> im actually having trouble with ubuntu 10.10 maverick meerkat.... i wanted to uninstall it but when i clicked uninstall it said something about could not find directory C:\ubuntu\ blah blah blah..... can any1 help me 2 uinstall?
[02:33] <sacarlson> Da_Wrecka: not on remote systems they you don't have priv on
[02:33] <testing> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=860525 <- this thread explain the problems i am having. although mine is a 32 bit system
[02:34] <Da_Wrecka> sacarlson: Okay, yeah, that makes sense
[02:34] <brains_> i always su to root (be it recommended or not)
[02:34] <Da_Wrecka> tsimpson: The fact that my command line is reading "root@AOA110" at the start would indicate your assumption is incorrect
[02:34] <Jordan_U> Guest36550: Do you have more than one drive or partition?
[02:35] <Ben64> Da_Wrecka: after you use a ; in the command, it stops being under sudo
[02:35] <tsimpson> Da_Wrecka: no, you run sudo -s, which launchas a shell as root. then when that command ends, ie you exit the shell, 'ls -l' will be run
[02:35] <itaylor57> root on a remote system is nobody
[02:35] <Yoinx> brains_ real men surf questionable adult websites while logged in as root.
[02:35] <Jordan_U> Da_Wrecka: gvfs doesn't follow posix semantics correctly. It's a known bug.
[02:36] <tycable> SimboL, reboot please.
[02:36] <tsimpson> Da_Wrecka: ah, you're using fuse
[02:36] <tsimpson> Da_Wrecka: fuse restricts access to only the person who issued the fuse mount command
[02:36] <Da_Wrecka> makes sense
[02:37] <sacarlson> tsimpson: wow even the root won't work from a fuse mount?
[02:37] <Baribal> Hi. When mounting an iPod, its mount points permissions get set to 755. How can I set them to 777?
[02:37] <Jordan_U> lp:225361
[02:37] <tsimpson> sacarlson: because root didn't mount it, so why should it have access?
[02:37] <dustin> aight im back aeon
[02:37] <Jordan_U> bug #225361
[02:38] <Da_Wrecka> hmm. If I try to mount the share using an fstab entry, I get "mount error(111): Connection refused"
[02:38] <jhonnyboy> Hey guys, I'm trying to set up a nice interface for a regular user who doesn't know any html to log into his site and add  items to his inventory. Is there a package that does this that you guys could recommend or would I have to program this from scratch?
[02:39] <Yoinx> try just mounting it like a normal cifs mount?
[02:39] <Yoinx> mount -t cifs -o username=server_user,password=secret //192.168.44.100/share /path_to/mount
[02:39] <BlueBomber7> jhonnyboy: Sounds like a perfect webmaster job opportunity to me ;)
[02:40] <Da_Wrecka> Yoinx: Same error
[02:40] <jhonnyboy> BlueBomber7, lmao yeah but to get called every time they want to add an item....ugh
[02:40] <jhonnyboy> BlueBomber7, monthly payments :P
[02:40] <dustin> hmm yoinx
[02:40] <dustin> that link u gave me
[02:40] <dustin> just told me how to install it
[02:40] <dustin> how ya find a place to get it?
[02:41] <Yoinx> jhonny, i doubt you'd find a frontend for something like that... since it's really going to depend on how your inventory is setup
[02:41] <Yoinx> dustin. It's still copyrighted. I doubt this is really the place to ask how to pirate software.
[02:42] <dustin> i thought it was free for linux ?
[02:42] <Yoinx> doubt it.
[02:42] <dustin> hmm there anyway to check about it?
[02:43] <Yoinx> http://icculus.org/quake2/#download
[02:43] <Yoinx> looks like a quake2 clone, perhaps.
[02:43] <neuro_damage> seems my system upgrade kernel versions? how do I rebuild the nvidia kernel module again? I tried a remove and reinstall with nvidia-current
[02:44] <neuro_damage> but still modprobe nvidia l'est fails
[02:44] <Yoinx> "Important Note: Any installer which includes the demo levels for Quake II must not be redistributed on any physical media. The demo levels for Quake II are still copyright Id Software. Anyone wishing to distribute the levels on physical media must contact Id directly."
[02:44] <Baribal> AFAIK Quake2 is OSS'd and thus *probably* free to download, but the maps are proprietary artwork.
[02:44] <Baribal> (But I may be wrong)
[02:44] <Yoinx> but, that site's likely not up to date. They may have dropped it off into abandonware status.
[02:44] <Da_Wrecka> They're still selling Quake 2.
[02:45] <Da_Wrecka> Not on physical media, but they're still selling Quake 2.
[02:45] <Da_Wrecka> I bought it on Steam quite recently
[02:45] <neuro_damage> da_wrecka: check out quake live man
[02:46] <Da_Wrecka> okay, this is getting weirder... mount.cifs won't mount the Windows share, FUSE (via Nautilus) will.
[02:47] <dustin> so would it be okay to install it fine?
[02:47] <brains_> quit
[02:47] <jack_^> Da_Wrecka, maybe you're not mounting the same thing. did you double and tripple check? im pretty sure nautilus just calls mount.cifs
[02:48] <Yoinx> neruo, why not just grab the newest nvidia drivers?
[02:48] <Yoinx> and go from there... It's what im running
[02:48] <Da_Wrecka> Yoinx: ...apparently I'm not. I could've sworn I had my router set up to give the 192.168.1.100 IP to my Windows box all the time...
[02:48] <Da_Wrecka> okay, NOW it works
[02:48] <Yoinx> huh Da_Wrecka ?
[02:48] <Lancelot> hey everyone, look at this: www.bioware.com bioware uses drupal
[02:48] <Da_Wrecka> Mounts, at least
[02:48] <Yoinx> you meant that to jack, lol
[02:49] <jack_^> Da_Wrecka++
[02:49] <Da_Wrecka> However, there's still directories not being displayed in ls
[02:50] <Da_Wrecka> Hmm, let's see what sudo ls gets me...
[02:50] <Da_Wrecka> No difference at all
[02:51] <Yoinx> Da_Wrecka... this might be way off base... but maybe you should boot a livecd on that windows box and check the folder permissions.
[02:51] <Yoinx> Maybe one's encrypted for windows or something crazy.
[02:51] <josh1> what is the proper channel to ask about 11.04?
[02:51] <Da_Wrecka> well, no, because I can still access it if I type the name into the shell
[02:52] <nOStahl> hey guys how can I share internet from one wifi adapter to another wifi adapter
[02:52] <ZykoticK9> josh1, #ubuntu+1
[02:52] <illmortal1> blue112, 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/Recovering
[02:52] <Da_Wrecka> It doesn't show up in listings but it can still be accessed from the shell
[02:52] <Yoinx> Yeah, so the folder's permissions have to be messed up somehow... or you wouldnt be able to get to it.
[02:53] <blue112> illmortal1, I don't have much experience using wubi, I'm sure someone help on this chan can help you =)
[02:53] <illmortal1> hmm.. ok. thanks anyways, blue112
[02:54] <Da_Wrecka> okay, I've got an Ubuntu install DVD, if memory serves that should work as a live CD
[02:54] <Yoinx> yeah, it should
[02:55] <Logan_> !ot | Lancelot
[02:55] <Starminn> You know the AptOnCD? Is it possible to add custom files for installation to that?
[02:55] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: First, if at all possible I would avoid wubi in general. What happens when you try to boot?
[02:55] <Lancelot> sorry
[02:56] <nOStahl> is it possibe to bridge two wifi adapters together (one tied to your router and the other broadcasting locally)
[02:56] <Lancelot> what do you mean by bridge?
[02:56] <Jordan_U> nOStahl: What is your end goal?
[02:57] <illmortal1> Jordan_U, it fails to load Grub (I just upgraded from 10.5LTS to 10.10
[02:57] <nOStahl> setting up an old netbook as a repeater
[02:57] <Yoinx> SDD2 doesnt sound like the right place to install grub to me.
[02:57] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: What happens when you try to boot? I need the actual symptoms.
[02:57] <illmortal1> Yoinx, SDD1 is my windows partition
[02:57] <Yoinx> but, meh
[02:57] <Da_Wrecka> Not the nippiest of things, booting Ubuntu from a DVD
[02:58] <nOStahl> its simple to do from wifi to ethernet sharing
[02:58] <nOStahl> but not wifi to wifi
[02:58] <densuke> #shinsai.info
[02:58] <illmortal1> Jordan_U, it gives me this error: error: the symbol `grub_xputs` not found
[02:58] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Did you only install via Wubi or have you also done a normal Ubuntu install?
[02:59] <illmortal1> only through Wubi... from Windows 7. At least to my knowledge.
[02:59] <venky80> hi
[03:00] <illmortal1> I 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] <illmortal1> instead of being on a legitimate partition of its own.. but I could be way wrong.
[03:00] <mean> Evolution cant bind hotmail account?
[03:00] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: 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.
[03:01] <xangua> mean: google for hotmail pop3 configuration
[03:01] <mean> xangua, thx
[03:01] <illmortal1> Interesting. Jordan_U, how would I go about removing the Wubi installation and just installing a fresh copy of 10.10 on a 2nd partition?
[03:01] <Da_Wrecka> aaaaaaaaaaaaaand it appears to have stalled
[03:02] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Remove wubi via Windows' Add / Remove programs then install Ubuntu by booting from the LiveCD/USB.
[03:02] <illmortal1> lol.. ok so I'm gonna need to get my grub to work then.. I can't access my Windows 7 partition @ boot up
[03:04] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Are you currently booted into an Ubuntu LiveCD?
[03:04] <illmortal1> Yes sir.
[03:04] <venky80> HIM_: hey
[03:04] <illmortal1> I'm on my Laptop and my desktop is on the LiveCD, Jordan_U
[03:04] <extra11> ubuntu feels as if it's going more commerical, true?
[03:04] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: run: sudo software-properties-gtk -e universe; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install mbr; sudo install-mbr /dev/sda
[03:05] <HIM_> ya
[03:05] <venky80> so people ask help about ubuntu here
[03:05] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Do *not* run install-mbr /dev/sda1 or any other partition. It needs to install to the mbr.
[03:05] <HIM_> ok
[03:05] <illmortal1> wait what..
[03:06] <Da_Wrecka> Yoinx, sacarlson: I booted Ubuntu from the DVD on my Windows computer. Nautilus there has no problems displaying the problematic entries
[03:06] <drmorphias> ah hail ubuntu! lol :)
[03:06] <HIM_> venky80: ok
[03:06] <illmortal1> you want me to use sudo apt-get install mbr, correct?
[03:06] <venky80> well
[03:06] <illmortal1> Jordan_U ^
[03:06] <venky80> this is a user help forum is ubuntu developer forum called ubuntu-devel?
[03:06] <ylmfos> 大家好
[03:06] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Yes.
[03:06] <illmortal1> How do I know where the MBR is?... especially since it's through Wubi?
[03:06] <HIM_> venky80: ok
[03:07] <IdleOne> venky80: #ubuntu-dev
[03:07] <gartral_> !jp | yl
[03:07] <rockets> I just installed Ubuntu. All was well. But after installing the nvidia driver from "Additional Drivers", my gnome desktop reverted to the default (gnome default, not ubuntu default) theme, and no matter what I do is still grey and ugly.
[03:07] <HIM_> venky80: ok
[03:07] <rockets> Changing the theme only affects window decorations now. Any thoughts?
[03:07] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: The mbr is by definition the first sector of the drive.
[03:07] <venky80> HIM_: it is called #ubuntu-dev
[03:07] <HIM_> ya
[03:07] <gartral_> rockets: what card?
[03:07] <mobasher> Hi, I need some help installing sun java 6, i'm on 10.10 amd64
[03:07] <HIM_> venky80: i underrstood
[03:07] <illmortal1> correct, Jordan_U. so... I should point the installation towards my Windows Partition, yes?
[03:07] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: There are other places that can be called boot sectors, but there is only one mbr.
[03:07] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: NO.
[03:08] <rockets> gardar, nvidia quadro, but I have visual effects disabled, so . . .
[03:08] <venky80> HIM_: but if you are going to be working on QT apps mainly then maybe #kubuntu is where you should go
[03:08] <HIM_> venky80: ok
[03:08] <dustin> hmm
[03:08] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: You do *NOT* want to install to any partition. You want to install to the mbr.
[03:08] <ArseneRei> Has anyone installed the montecarlo fonts for ubuntu? I'm having trouble finding a guide to do it.
[03:08] <illmortal1> Ok. It's still updating as we speak, Jordan_U, so I haven't ran anything just yet apt-get update
[03:08] <dustin> #-list
[03:09] <dustin> ##list
[03:09] <dustin> how ya get the channel list again ?
[03:09] <Da_Wrecka> Is there a GUI method to set up a CIFS share on Lucid?
[03:09] <illmortal1> so install to sda not sda1 or sda2 in other words, ya, Jordan_U?
 it's  "/list" i think
[03:09] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Correct.
[03:09] <illmortal1> ok cool, now I understand
[03:09] <HIM_> venky80: am registering
[03:09] <dustin> thanks mo
[03:10] <mobasher> need some help installing sun java and i'm getting the following error:   http://paste.ubuntu.com/579586/
[03:10] <rockets> I can't seem to use any themes . . . this makes me want to just go back to windows.
[03:11] <illmortal1> Jordan_U going to paste bin something here... I can't get mbr via apt-get install
[03:11] <itaylor57> mobasher: no problem in your output
[03:11] <itaylor57> mobasher: improper command to java
[03:12] <mobasher> itaylor57=>> really ? it's suppose to tell me the location of the jre ?
[03:12] <itaylor57> mobasher: which java
[03:12] <mobasher> itaylor57=>> lol i think i'm loosing my mind lmao
[03:12] <mobasher> itaylor57=>> thanks a lot
[03:12] <Beleth_> rockets, the same problem has been posted on ubuntu forums, google is your friend.
[03:13] <rockets> Beleth_, I have been googling.
[03:13] <justme> does anyone know of a free programming course online
[03:14] <rockets> I ran Ubuntu as my main desktop OS 3 years running before switching back to windows. I figured I'd give it another shot, but it looks like these silly little annoyances never end.
[03:16] <illmortal> lol.. Jordan_U, I'm such a noob.. I just realized my ethernet cable was unplugged, gonna try apt-get update again. forgive me.
[03:16] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: np :)
[03:18] <rockets> sudo gnome-settings-daemon fixes it, but . . . sigh . . . only temporarily.
[03:18] <Starminn> rockets: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1668585
[03:19] <Starminn> rockets: I don't know if that will help. Just thought I'd look.
[03:19] <rockets> hmm thanks
[03:20] <illmortal> hmm.. interesting. Now my network manager is claiming that my wired network is disconnected... when before it was working perfectly fine before I disconnected my ethernet cable earlier, Jordan_U
[03:20] <naryfa> so what's up
[03:20] <dustin> any of you folks know a good linux quake2 channel around here?
[03:20] <naryfa> I'm here again
[03:21] <dustin> anyone know a good program for opening pak files as well?
[03:22] <rockets> Ah this is perfect, a reboot, the driver activates, and now the keyboard's brightness controls break. This is hilarious.
[03:22] <rockets> What a joke.
[03:22] <ForgotMyNick> Hello. I'm trying to run ecryptfs-migrate-home, but it's giving me lstat warnings about not having permission to access .gvfs, and then failing.
[03:22] <rockets> I'm not saying there aren't fixes in the forums, etc. I'm saying that's not good enough.
[03:23] <ForgotMyNick> I did run the program with root as the help doc said to.
[03:26] <illmortal> ughhh... 7 hours on trying to fix my issue... issues that shouldn't exist in the first place. Jordan_U. I hit a road block. Wireless card needs firmware according network manager and network manager claims my network connection is disconnected.. even though there's activity on the network card itself.. I can ping things inside my network but can't go online.
[03:27] <bob__86> ForgotMyNick: you did start the command with sudo?
[03:27] <ForgotMyNick> yes
[03:29] <kingbilly> hello, to launch minecraft I right click on the minecraft.jar file and I choose "Open with Sun Java" from the menu that pops up.  How can I do this from a command so I can make a launcher?

[03:30] <ZombieRamen> can anyone help me with my problem with audacity?
[03:30] <router> but anyway i need help with my mic it doesnt record sound
[03:30] <kingbilly> iceroot: thanks it worked
[03:30] <Jordan_U> !details | ZombieRamen
[03:31] <ZombieRamen> i am aware that i must give details, Jordan_U
[03:31] <ZombieRamen> however, if i give details, i get ignored, and i have to continually retype details
[03:31] <ZombieRamen> thus, i ask if anyone is willing to help with my issue
[03:31] <router> i need help with my mic. it does not work
[03:31] <iceroot> ZombieRamen: just give a detailed report in one line
[03:32] <router> i am running an os that is not windows
[03:32] <router> please help
[03:32] <illmortal> ok Jordan_U.. got network card going again.. had to take down network interfaces, bring them back up, and restart network manager lol
[03:32] <ZombieRamen> Audacity is refusing to interact in any way except through the menu bar
[03:32] <Jordan_U> ZombieRamen: That's the way that this channel works. You can prepare a comment and copy and paste it as needed or if it's longer than can reasonably be put into one comment give all the details in a pastebin or forum link.
[03:32] <ZombieRamen> so are you willing to help me, jordan?
[03:32] <Jordan_U> router: What OS are you running?
[03:33] <ZombieRamen> i have quite detailed information
[03:33] <router> Jordan_U: ubuntu
[03:33] <router> Jordan_U: 10.10 and the mic doesnt work
[03:33] <router> Jordan_U: i kinda need it to skype
[03:33] <keithclark> I am running Ubuntu 10.04 on two computers in my home connected to a router.  Each computer cannot see the other computer, and the only thing that comes up under 'Places>Network' is 'Windows Network'.  When I double click on that all I get is 'Unable to mount location, Failed to retrieve share list from server'.  Why would I only see a Windows Network when I have no Windows machines?
[03:34] <Jordan_U> router: What happens when you try to use the mic?
[03:34] <ZombieRamen> basically, audacity is refusing to interact except through the menu bar
[03:34] <cntb> 10.10 created second user and want it to be default on start  how to change
[03:34] <ZombieRamen> i cannot select any part of a track
[03:34] <rockets> Mostly working at this point. Theme still gets screwed up . . . but sudo gnome-settings-daemon fixes it.
[03:34] <ZombieRamen> nor click any buttons
[03:34] <router> Jordan_U: nothing it doesnt record
[03:34] <rockets> I should make a launcher shortcut for that :P
[03:34] <ZombieRamen> but i can use the menu bar
[03:34] <FloodBot3> ZombieRamen: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:34] <nit-wit> ZombieRamen, did it ever work?
[03:34] <Jordan_U> router: "nothing" is rarely a proper explanation for "What happens". Does it record silence? Do you get an error message?
[03:35] <ZombieRamen> yes, it worked before yesterday
[03:35] <Jordan_U> router: Is your mic even listed as an available input device?
[03:35] <nit-wit> ZombieRamen, any update/upgrades since then?
[03:35] <ZombieRamen> i tried installing the daily alpha release, and got this output
[03:35] <ZombieRamen> http://pastebin.com/8ZSL8SBX
[03:35] <router> Jordan_U: yeah like when i record on sound recorder it says no data recorded
[03:35] <ZombieRamen> i'm not sure--the version i was using was from ubuntu 10.10's repos
[03:35] <shaoguanghua> 有说中文的吗

[03:36] <bob__86> router: have you tried ubuntu help either on your computer or on line at the ubuntu site?
[03:36] <Jordan_U> router: What is the exact error message from sound recorder?
[03:36] <router> bob__86: no
[03:36] <router> Jordan_U: hold on
[03:36] <FEMALE_ANUS> router: sup
[03:36] <nit-wit> ZombieRamen, look in history in synaptic for any upgrades that might be the culprit
[03:37] <tycable> shaoguanghua, Please use English, though I'm a Chinese man.
[03:37] <illmortal> ok Jordan_U, after running command: sudo install-mbr /dev/sda should I restart?
[03:37] <Jordan_U> FEMALE_ANUS: Please change your nickname to something apropriate.
[03:37] <nit-wit> yes
[03:37] <router> Jordan_U: Stream contains no data
[03:37] <router> FEMALE_ANUS: hello
[03:38] <router> FEMALE_ANUS: thats not a nice name
[03:38] <FEMALE_ANUS> router: what's up, can u help me with a ruby problem, im trying to install ruby on ubuntu
[03:38] <FEMALE_ANUS> router: have u heard of ruby
[03:39] <router> FEMALE: im not experienced
[03:39] <Jordan_U> FEMALE: Just ask your actual support question (directed to the whole channel, not anyone in particular) and if anyone can help they will.
[03:39] <mcurran> anyone 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] <mcurran> but let me know if you have any better suggestions, because this is taking forever
[03:39] <ZombieRamen> nit-wit: I'm not seeing anything
[03:40] <ZombieRamen> only thing relevant is ladspa-sdk, which has no impact whether installed or uninstalled
[03:40] <Jordan_U> mcurran: Why do you care about the partition numbering?
[03:40] <nit-wit> ZombieRamen, that is about all I know, sorry
[03:40] <mcurran> because I'm anal, why ask needless questions
[03:40] <prosthetics> Hey guys, just a quick question, im running 10.04. Im wondering if there is a way to update to gnome 2.32 easily?
[03:40] <Jordan_U> mcurran: Knowing someone's actual end goal is often critical to helping them.
[03:40] <mcurran> plus I don't want to use up my number of valid primary partitions for non-existent ones
[03:41] <FEMALE> hi
[03:41] <FEMALE> how do i install ruby in ubuntu?
[03:41] <FEMALE> i hate python
[03:41] <router> Jordan_U: Stream contains no data
[03:42] <smw> FEMALE, if you would please stop with the trolling, it would be appreciated.
[03:42] <tycable> FEMALE, sudo apt-get install ruby
[03:42] <Jordan_U> mcurran: They won't be used up. You can always create a new "second" partition later on, even if you already have a "third partition". Partitions don't need to be numbered in the order they actually appear on-disk.
[03:42] <FEMALE> tycable: thanks
[03:42] <mcurran> whatever, I just want to accomplish what I asked
[03:42] <FEMALE> smw: well its the reason i want to install ruby i hear its good
[03:42] <mcurran> fuckin' annoying
[03:43] <FEMALE> tycable: thanks so can u teach me some basic ruby too
[03:43] <prosthetics> anyone?
[03:43] <Jordan_U> !ohmy | mcurran
[03:43] <FEMALE> tycable: how do i write 'hello world' etc
[03:43] <illmortal> Hey Jordan_U. After running those commands you gave me.. I restarted my computer, but I still get the, "error: the symbol 'grub-xputs' not found"
[03:43] <rockets> Does anybody else have the issue where you have to click "Authenticate" like 500 times?
[03:43] <Jordan_U> FEMALE: For ruby specific help join #ruby.
[03:43] <tycable> FEMALE, sorry, I don't know how to program with ruby, it's a pity.
[03:44] <FEMALE> tycable: maybe we can learn ruby together
[03:44] <armyants> FEMALE: do it in #ruby
[03:44] <keithclark> FEMALE, http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/
[03:44] <needhelp1> if i have banshee 1.8.0 installed, and i want to use the lastest version, should i just install the ppa? do i need to uninstall the 1.8.0 first?
[03:44] <Fluttershy> !troll | FEMALE
[03:45] <Fluttershy> is that not a thing?
[03:45] <Jordan_U> illmortal: OK, that most likely means that at some point you accidentily installed grub to your windows partition (in the future remember *never* install grub to a partition's boot sector).
[03:45] <Fluttershy> should be
[03:45] <FEMALE> Fluttershy: stop trying to be mean to me pls thanks id appreciate it
[03:45] <skullboy> someone explain the output of fbset to me im trying to forge it
[03:45] <illmortal> does that mean my Windows partition is pretty much screwed at this point? Jordan_U? Or can I still recover my Windows partition?
[03:45] <Jordan_U> illmortal: Can you run boot info script as explained here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and pastebin the RESULTS.txt ?
[03:46] <skullboy> someone explain the output of fbset to me im trying to forge it
[03:46] <Jordan_U> illmortal: If that is the problem it's fairly easy to recover.
[03:46] <illmortal> lol ya hold on.. now I'm trying to re-boot through my USB (LIVEUSB) and now it's ignoring it.. I love it.
[03:47] <FEMALE> illmortal: i love it too LOL
[03:47] <needhelp1> if i have banshee 1.8.0 installed, and i want to use the lastest version, should i just install the ppa? do i need to uninstall the 1.8.0 first?
[03:47] <darkmast508> Hello?
[03:48] <darkmast508> Anyone here good with xchat-gnome?
[03:48] <Jordan_U> FEMALE: Please stick to comments asking or giving Ubuntu support.
[03:48] <bastidrazor>  needhelp1 if you use the ppa it'll make the appropriate changes since you're usig synaptic to install it.
[03:48] <smw> !anyone | darkmast508
[03:48] <FEMALE> Jordan_U: you seem quite uptight
[03:49] <Jordan_U> FEMALE: This is your last warning. Stick to civil support discussion in this channel.
[03:49] <needhelp1> bastidrazor, ontop of what i have already installed? or as a seperate app? or should i  uninstall the 1.8.0 .. im having issues with the metadata fixer and im hoping there are updates to it
[03:49] <bastidrazor> FEMALE: you don't seem all the female.
[03:49] <intok> why is it impossible to take a screenshot of totem/movie player?
[03:49] <FEMALE> bastidrazor: pls keep discussion to ubuntu related issues and support

[03:49] <prosthetics> Hey guys, just a quick question, im running 10.04. Im wondering if there is a way to update to gnome 2.32 easily?
[03:50] <nit-wit> prosthetics, add the gnome 3 stack ppa instead
[03:50] <bastidrazor> needhelp1: with a ppa it'll make the changes necessary. no extra work needed. if you're having issues maybe the newer version has problems.;
[03:50] <prosthetics> nit: not really sure about how to do that?
[03:50] <Brando1995> guys
[03:50] <nit-wit> prosthetics, hold on
[03:51] <Brando1995> what does this mean-- generating /boot/initrd.img-6.35-22-generic
[03:51] <Brando1995> cause my install ALWAYS hangs on that command while configuriong hardware
[03:52] <keithclark> I am running Ubuntu 10.04 on two computers in my home connected to a router.

When I double click on that all I get is 'Unable to mount location, Failed to retrieve share list from server'.  Why would I only see a Windows Network when I have no Windows machines?
[03:52] <Nach0z> 'lo all. I have a question... is there an application I can install that'll monitor the number of processes a given application runs, and kill it when that gets too high? A fork bomb protector basically.
[03:52] <smw> Brando1995, it is creating a new image. It is used to bootstrap booting.
[03:52] <ForgotMyNick> Hello. I'm trying to run ecryptfs-migrate-home, but it's giving me lstat warnings about not having permission to access .gvfs, and then failing. I'm running ubuntu 10.10 and this is the output I get: http://pastie.org/private/btel7tia8hwkbnkt2dtu8q
[03:53] <prosthetics> Keith: do you want a permanent mount? or just to copy some stuff over right now, and then your done
[03:53] <Brando1995> smw: well what does it mean when it hangs there
[03:53] <prosthetics> Keith: if you just want to copy something right now, you could just scp/sftp the files across
[03:53] <smw> Brando1995, it means it is doing something resource intensive :-P
[03:53] <Brando1995> smw: so i should just wait for it? how long?
[03:53] <nit-wit> prosthetics, here is the ppa look at the read about installing.
[03:54] <smw> Brando1995, until done?
[03:54] <keithclark> prosthetics, I'd really like to be able to share files/resources of any Ubuntu machine hooked to my network.  There are only two at the moment but there can be as many as 5 at a time.
[03:54] <smw> Brando1995, I would think 5-10 min would be too long
[03:54] <Brando1995> smw: yeah i waited 45 min
[03:54] <nit-wit> prosthetics, my paste isn't working hold on
[03:54] <prosthetics> i'de suggest looking up NFS Keith, while you could use windows shares, if there is no windows pcs involved, its more trouble then its worth
[03:54] <smw> Brando1995, then there is a problem
[03:55] <intok> why is it impossible to take a screenshot of movie player/totem?
[03:55] <smw> Brando1995, I am not sure if restarting would work...
[03:55] <smw> Brando1995, this is what an initrd is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initrd
[03:55] <nit-wit> prosthetics, https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/+archive/gnome3-builds/
[03:55] <prosthetics> thx nit-wit , much appreciated
[03:55] <Brando1995> smw: when I start ubuntu it says something like "chipset not supported by current firmware" what does that mean, like can i fix the firmware?
[03:55] <rockets> Now I'm trying to install flash, but the "use this source" button in Ubuntu Software Center does absolutely nothing.
[03:55] <rockets> This is hilarious.
[03:55] <nit-wit> prosthetics, never had the paste go out.:)
[03:55] <tycable> ForgotMyNick, maybe, try sudo chown root /home/MY_USER/.gvfs
[03:56] <smw> Brando1995, I have never seen that before.
[03:56] <prosthetics> ive only had it on windows based X servers when forwarding my Desktop there, not fun when your trying to copy tohse commands that are like 4 lines of crap
[03:56] <nit-wit> rockets, why don't you complain in your pillow you obviously don't have a clue.
[03:57] <ForgotMyNick> ok
[03:57] <smw> Brando1995, try googling the exact error message
[03:57] <Brando1995> I have never had luck with linux. Would you mind if i sent you a short youtube video showing what happens when I try to run debian?
[03:57] <rockets> Brando1995, not to be jerk, but this isn't #debian
[03:57] <Brando1995> No its just I think theres a problem with my board. It does it when running any live cd
[03:57] <smw> Brando1995, yes, send it
[03:58] <Brando1995> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08LAhbF9z7k
[03:58] <illmortal> ok Jordan_U, going back into Ubuntu via LiveUSB. Gonna follow that instruction guide
[03:59] <Brando1995> debian installed but as you can see wont run
[03:59] <booksbuggy> is day light saving time applied automatically on the ubuntu system?
[03:59] <ForgotMyNick> tycable: I get permission denied trying to run chown on that folder (and yes, I ran it with sudo)
[03:59] <smw> booksbuggy, yes
[04:00] <qcjn2> hi, according to guy from #mpd, i have to upgrade the ffmpeg, vorbis enc librairies. How do i do that, cause i installed ffmpeg, and it installed, and didn't say i had the latest version ???
[04:00] <qcjn2> ubuntu 10.04
[04:00] <booksbuggy> smw, okey dokey thanks
[04:00] <qcjn2> FFmpeg version SVN-r0.5.1-4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1,
[04:00] <smw> !who | Brando1995
[04:01] <keithclark> Is it really this complex to setup file/resource sharing in Ubuntu?  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo
[04:01] <Brando1995> !smw do you have any idea what causes that?
[04:01] <tycable> ForgotMyNick, then leave the sudo, try chown root
[04:01] <Brando1995> !ubottu
[04:01] <smw> Brando1995, just say my name, no !
[04:02] <Jordan_U> keithclark: NFS is normally used more in server situations, samba is used more often for Desktop file sharing and can be setup with a few clicks.
[04:02] <smw> Brando1995, I was not able to see anything, sorry
[04:03] <KimK> Hi, I have a friend with a laptop running Ubuntu 10.04. His display is 1280x800. But he has an app he'd like to run that needs 1024 of screen height to reach all the buttons on the bottom. Isn't there a way to make the screen "draggable"(?) or something, kind of like a google map? How can that be done? The width of 1280 is OK, it wouldn't have to pan left/right, just scroll up and down a little.
[04:03] <Brando1995> smw, ok yeah that doesnt work. so you cant help at all?
[04:03] <illmortal> ok Jordan_U: www.pastebin.com/sgtky5mb
[04:04] <smw> Brando1995, sorry :-\
[04:04] <Brando1995> smw its ok thanks
[04:04] <keithclark> Jordan_U, Isn't that the 'Windows Network' that seems to be installed by default?
[04:04] <Jordan_U> keithclark: Yes.
[04:04] <Brando1995> Ok so does anyone know how to fix the error "chipset is unsupported by current firmware"
[04:05] <keithclark> Jordan_U, ah, then it is just not working for me here.  I get a 'Unable to mount location, Failed to retrieve share list from server' error
[04:05] <Jordan_U> keithclark: How did you configure sharing on the other end?
[04:06] <ForgotMyNick> tycable: I get permission denied trying to run chown on that folder (and yes, I ran it with sudo)
[04:06] <andai> I know this works cause I did it once: I need to capture sound activity from my desktop (youtube, music players, everything) in Audacity. How?
[04:06] <xangua> KimK:  change screen resolution
[04:07] <redhat> HE\ello
[04:07] <redhat> HEllo
[04:07] <tycable> ForgotMyNick, try don't use sudo

[04:07] <redhat> Can someone help me spoofing my ip???
[04:07] <ForgotMyNick> "ERROR: This program must be executed with root privileges"
[04:07] <qcjn2> what is git for installing application ??
[04:08] <smw> qcjn2, git does not install programs
[04:08] <mcurran> it downloads them
[04:08] <tycable> ForgotMyNick, paste <ls -ld ~/.gvfs> here
[04:08] <hiexpo> !git
[04:08] <mcurran> git clone git://<site>
[04:08] <Magizian> http://magizian.hopto.org/encchat.jpg <- check out this picture..
[04:08] <redhat> So no one's helping me spoof my ip adress???
[04:08] <ForgotMyNick> dr-x------ 2 MY_USER MY_USER 0 2011-03-12 18:48 /home/MY_USER/.gvfs/
[04:08] <keithclark> Jordan_U, I really do forget, it was quite some time ago.
[04:08] <qcjn2> ok, it download, so then we have to compile ??
[04:09] <hiexpo> yep
[04:09] <Magizian> And it's on a ubuntu server..
[04:09] <tycable> ForgotMyNick, chown root ~/.gvfs, then sudo ecryptfs-migrate-home
[04:09] <Magizian> redhat...
[04:09] <hiexpo> what is the file
[04:09] <smw> qcjn2, the README and INSTALL files should tell you how to install it.
[04:09] <ForgotMyNick> That doesn't work, I get function not implemented when I run it myself, and permission denied when running as root
[04:09] <redhat> Temme magizian
[04:09] <Brando1995> can anyone help me with the generating /boot/initrd.img.635-22-generic hold up? It sits for ever and wont advance the install
[04:09] <smw> !compile | qcjn2 this may also help
[04:10] <qcjn2> ok
[04:10] <keithclark> Jordan_U, Ah, both are fresh installs of Ubuntu 10.04.  I remember now.  I've never tried to share files/resources before.
[04:10] <smw> qcjn2, what are you installing?
[04:10] <hiexpo> should use the checkinstall rather thanmakeinstall though itmakes it easier to remove if needed
[04:11] <qcjn2> smw, i have to upgrade the ffmpeg librairies
[04:11] <Saik> hey guys. anyone with a Dell Dimension
[04:11] <Saik> e310?
[04:11] <Saik> hey guys. anyone with a Dell Dimension E310?
[04:11] <smw> qcjn2, are you sure? why?
[04:11] <qcjn2> smw, according to a guy from #mpd, i saw it in a backtrace from gdb
[04:11] <hiexpo> qcjn2, what ubuntu distro you on
[04:11] <smw> !anyone | Saik
[04:11] <illmortal> Jordan_U looks like I needed to install the MBR onto /dev/sdd not /dev/sda?
[04:11] <qcjn2> hiexpo, ubuntu 10.04
[04:11] <tycable> ForgotMyNick, then try chmod 555 ~/.gvfs
[04:12] <hiexpo> ok let me get you the link for the right way to install the codecs right
[04:12] <qcjn2> hiexpo, ok
[04:12] <ForgotMyNick> tycable, seemed to work but it reset itself almost immediately.
[04:13] <smw> hiexpo, I doubt that will help.
[04:13] <Jordan_U> illmortal: I haven't been able to see your paste, the page keeps loading a completely blank box where it should be. Could you try using pastebin.ubuntu.com instead?
[04:13] <RubenAlonzo> Greetings Everyone, i have a couple questions: How do i add this room to buddy or favorites so Pidgin auto logs in here? I cant seem to find the option to add to faves. Also has anyone tried the latest version on Kubuntu? I was wondering if it would be easier to navigate for a total noob like me over than my present Ubunto 10.10?
[04:13] <Saik> hey guys. anyone with a Dell Dimension E310 that can help me with unlocking the SYSTEM password?
[04:13] <smw> hiexpo, are you looking for mediabuntu?
[04:13] <tycable> ForgotMyNick, oh, I don't know how to do this, sorry.
[04:13] <xangua> RubenAlonzo: buddies>add chat
[04:13] <smw> RubenAlonzo, you first need to setup a new irc account.
[04:14] <smw> RubenAlonzo, then put in freenode's details.
[04:14] <illmortal> sure will Jordan_U
[04:14] <hiexpo> no smw
[04:14] <KimK> xangua: Thanks, but the screen resolution is already as high as possible and it matches the laptop display resolution. I want to increase something else, what, the frame buffer size?
[04:14] <hiexpo> qcjn2, http://pasindudps.blogspot.com/2010/09/compiling-ffmpeg-in-ubuntu-1004-lucid.html
[04:14] <qcjn2> FFmpeg version SVN-r0.5.1-4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1 <-- hiexpo and smw this what i have now
[04:15] <smw> RubenAlonzo, I do not see why kubuntu would be easier to navigate than ubuntu
[04:15] <smw> RubenAlonzo, they are both pretty strait forward
[04:15] <qcjn2> hiexpo, ok, thanks
[04:15] <illmortal> Jordan_U: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/579597
[04:15] <Xcell> lol, puppy rox
[04:15] <hiexpo> yep qcjn2
[04:15] <Onix3232> anyone willing to help me with installing ubuntu on my computer?
[04:16] <RubenAlonzo> roger that, thank you all for the help now i will try to log off this program then restart it to see if i auto enabled it correctly. be right back (hopefully)
[04:16] <smw> Onix3232, yes, however, you need to have a specific question.
[04:16] <hiexpo> Onix3232, what with it has agui
[04:16] <armyants> !ask | Onix3232
[04:16] <Saik> smw, some people like the look better? KDE looks alot more like windows, so it culd just be icon familiarity
[04:16] <qcjn2> hiexpo, but i have to uninstall this ffmpeg first... to do that it's "sudo apt-get auto-remove ffmpeg" ? right ?
[04:16] <smw> Onix3232, read the install howto and we will help if you run into probems
[04:17] <Jordan_U> illmortal: Wow, that's a lot of disks.
[04:17] <Onix3232> Ok, hold on, Ill go get the error msg
[04:17] <illmortal> ya... should be 5 hard drives total
[04:17] <smw> Saik, 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] <illmortal> Jordan_U ^
[04:17] <hiexpo> yes it tells you thatin the tutorial i sent you is the first command copy and paste them in terminal qcjn2
[04:17] <Saik> Onix3232, installing is pretty straight-forward what part are you having trouble with?
[04:17] <qcjn2> hiexpo, ok, thanks
[04:17] <Saik> smw, I like xfce,but tat's just me :P
[04:18] <smw> Saik, icewm ftw
[04:18] <illmortal> i have both Ubuntu and Windows 7 on an SSD.. otherwise it would have been 4 HDDs :P
[04:18] <Saik> smw, and yes, kde would beeasir for someone new, because of the windows mentality
[04:18] <Saik> icewm?
[04:18] <Saik> hey guys. anyone with a Dell Dimension E310 that can help me with unlocking the SYSTEM password?
[04:18] <skullboy> someone explain the output of fbset to me im trying to forge it
[04:19] <Jordan_U> illmortal: According to that output you don't have any Wubi install.
[04:19] <smw> Saik, you mean BIOS password?
[04:19] <Saik> smw, I believe so
[04:19] <Saik> smw, it refuses o boot ANYTHING without it
[04:19] <katsrc> has anyone tried Amazon Instant Video on ubuntu?
[04:19] <illmortal> Jordan_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 =X
[04:19] <RubenAlonzo> smw, 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.
[04:20] <katsrc> i know Netflix doesn't work because of the Moonlight dependency
[04:20] <armyants> Saik: google coreboot flashrom
[04:20] <Saik> hm?
[04:20] <smw> Saik, it normally involves opening up the hardware and flipping the switch
[04:20] <illmortal> Jordan_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] <hiexpo> Saik, if it's your lappy you should no the pasword right
[04:20] <Onix3232> When 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] <smw> Saik, that information can be obtained from the manufacturer (or their website)
[04:20] <RubenAlonzo> so hopefully the i use ubuntu netbook remix, the better acquainted i will be
[04:20] <Saik> hiexpo, I'm FIXING the pc, it's not mine
[04:20] <smw> Saik, armyants was kidding.
[04:21] <armyants> Saik: did you steal it?
[04:21] <xrdodrx> I figured out how to share my ubuntu desktop but how do I access other remote desktops???
[04:21] <Saik> armyants, no.. I'm fixing it. I'm a tech (well, amature, but yea..)
[04:21] <Jordan_U> illmortal: Follow this guide: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide
[04:22] <Saik> and who sid it was a laptop?
[04:22] <Saik> said*
[04:22] <smw> Saik, http://www.tech-faq.com/reset-dell-bios-password.html google is god.
[04:22] <armyants> Saik: ah, cool
[04:22] <KimK> OK, 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?
[04:23] <Jordan_U> illmortal: 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] <illmortal> ok Jordan_U, thank you... ill be afk for a few minutes
[04:23] <Jordan_U> illmortal: You're welcome.
[04:24] <Saik> smw, you knowif all Dells use he phoenix bios?
[04:24] <Saik> the bios on this one is Phoenux + 1.10 A03
[04:24] <Onix3232> Also, what are you supposed to do when your MD5SUMs dont match up?
[04:24] <Saik> Onix3232, download a new CD?
[04:24] <smw> Saik, it should not matter
[04:25] <Saik> smw, I'm hoping not lol
[04:25] <smw> you need to switch a physical jumper
[04:25] <Saik> well, time to tear this PC apart then :P
[04:25] <Onix3232> But I downloaded it from the ubuntu website... shouldnt it be fine?
[04:25] <Saik> Onix3232, did you torrent it?
[04:25] <smw> Saik, on the only computer I had to do that to, it has a nice switch :-P.
[04:26] <Saik> smw, 've had several PCs and none of them have been nice lol
[04:26] <Onix3232> No, I got it from http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
[04:26] <RubenAlonzo> for 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] <hiexpo> Onix3232, if the md5sum is not correct download it again
[04:26] <RubenAlonzo> i cant seem mine to work
[04:26] <Saik> Onix3232, torrent it, it's safer and corrupts less often
[04:28] <Onix3232> theres nothing else i can do? im reluctant to download bittorrent on my friends laptop
[04:29] <smw> Onix3232, download it again?
[04:29] <RubenAlonzo> if he has ubuntu, use transmission for torrents
[04:29] <smw> Onix3232, utorrent is a better torrent software anyways :-P
[04:30] <RubenAlonzo> or if he has windows, i like utorrent, its very light and works fine
[04:30] <smw> Onix3232, anything is better than bittorrent ;-)
[04:30] <Saik> now if ony O could figure out how to take this desktop apart lol
[04:30] <Onix3232> I'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] <Saik> only I *
[04:30] <Saik> Onix3232, use utorrent
[04:30] <smw> Onix3232, it maybe that the md5s are wrong
[04:31] <qcjn2> hiexpo, this real nice and great explain. But i don't understand the part of a back up, just   after the "make"
[04:31] <smw> are you always downloading from the same mirror?
[04:31] <hiexpo> qcjn2, let me see oneminute
[04:31] <Onix3232> yes, I have been. But the ubuntu site should be a reliable source, shouldnt it?
[04:32] <hiexpo> qcjn2, ok which make
[04:32] <RubenAlonzo> Welcome back,  DarkDevil
[04:32] <hiexpo> Onix3232, use the torrent
[04:33] <smw> Onix3232, there are many mirrors. one may be out of sync?
[04:33] <qcjn2> hiexpo,  sudo checkinstall --pkgname=x264 --pkgversion "2:0.`grep X264_BUILD x264.h -m1 | \
[04:33] <qcjn2> hiexpo, what i understand, is that it made a .deb package
[04:34] <Onix3232> Alright, I'll try a mirror, and then if that doesn't work I'll try a torrent. Thanks for the help everyone.
[04:34] <qcjn2> hiexpo, i don't know why, and in terminal, it says it can be remove with dpkg -r x264
[04:35] <hiexpo> qcjn2, 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 first
[04:35] <Saik> smw, still seeking system password
[04:36] <smw> Saik, did you switch the jumper?
[04:36] <Saik> smw, ye
[04:36] <Saik> yea*
[04:36] <hiexpo> qcjn2, oh did you already havecheckinstall installed
[04:36] <smw> Saik, did you turn it on after switching the jumper?
[04:36] <Saik> nope that's probably what I forgot lol
[04:37] <qcjn2> hiexpo, from what i understand, is that if there would be any problem , i could re install this deb file.
[04:37] <qcjn2> hiexpo, what is check install
[04:37] <illmortal1> Jordan_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] <Blueleaf> k
[04:37] <smw> Saik, don't forget to switch back the jumper afterwards
[04:37] <hiexpo> qcjn2, it says that cause it has mad a deb file and used the deb file to install it
[04:37] <qcjn2> hiexpo, is checkintall an app for checking install
[04:38] <qcjn2> hiexpo, ok.
[04:38] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: You didn't need to change anything there.
[04:38] <qcjn2> hiexpo, it already used it, to install
[04:38] <kevdog> no checkinstall is for making a psuedopackage like an apk
[04:38] <hiexpo> qcjn2, !checkinstall
[04:38] <illmortal1> oh.. ok. I used this this command: sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc but nowhere did it mention a device to select =X  Jordan_u
[04:39] <kevdog> Personally I think checkinstall sucks, and I would just do a sudo make install since in my experience it breaks thing
[04:39] <hiexpo> qcjn2, ok than you already had checkinstall or one of the commands had you install it i don'tremember it   but good
[04:39] <qcjn2> kevdog, apk, is for apt-get ??, anyway, it s a package
[04:39] <smw> Saik, did it work?
[04:39] <Saik> smw, seems that just disables the password, but I just switched it back
[04:39] <kevdog> ?
[04:40] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Can you pastebin the output of "debconf-show grub-pc"?
[04:40] <qcjn2> hiexpo, ok, then , i ll just continue
[04:40] <Saik> and yea it did :)
[04:40] <illmortal1> sure will, Jordan_U
[04:40] <hiexpo> qcjn2, es
[04:40] <hiexpo> ^yes
[04:40] <kevdog> is someone compiling from source
[04:40] <RubenAlonzo> brb, gotta turn something off real quick
[04:40] <smw> Saik, of course it "just disables the password". What more did you want?
[04:41] <xrdodrx> I figured out how to share my ubuntu desktop but how do I access other remote desktops (I already installed tightvnc)?
[04:41] <kevdog> yea and sorry -- I meant a .deb not apk
[04:42] <intok> why is it impossible to take a screenshot of movie player/totem?
[04:42] <Saik> smw: well, what I meant was it does't seem like it would mater lol
[04:42] <Saik> odd.. I switched it back and it's still disabled?
[04:43] <smw> Saik, it is used to clear the password. Not disable it.
[04:44] <Saik> it said "disabled via jumper"
[04:44] <smw> Saik, bad choice of words?
[04:44] <coz_>  hey guys
[04:45] <smw> hi coz_
[04:45] <illmortal1> Jordan_U: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/579600
[04:46] <coz_> smw,  hey guy
[04:46] <xrdodrx> I figured out how to share my ubuntu desktop but how do I access other remote desktops (win7 that I already installed tightvnc)?
[04:46] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Try running "sudo upgrade-from-grub-legacy".
[04:46] <illmortal1> ok
[04:47] <Saik> smw, perhaps, but that's what the bios says
[04:47] <neuro_damage> I've been having some real trouble with Nvidia drivers, I installed the nvidia-current and now it's complaining about failing to initialize the GLX module
[04:47] <neuro_damage> not sure what I'm missing
[04:48] <illmortal1> hm... Jordan_U apparently something else is using config.dat which is preventing me from accessing that file through that command.
[04:48] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Do you have apt/dpkg running at the moment?
[04:49] <luis> good evening everyone
[04:49] <illmortal1> I closed it after you told me that I didn't need to make any changes there, Jordan_U
[04:49] <illmortal1> But it did warn me that the terminal was in the middle of the processes when I attempted to close it, Jordan_U
[04:49] <luis> I have a problem with nautilus. it doesn't run
[04:50] <luis> the only way to run it is with gksu
[04:50] <Nach0z> can anyone tell me how I can limit the amount of memory (RAM) a given program is allowed? I know CPUlimit will do the same with processor usage but I can't find a comparable app for RAM usage...
[04:50] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: I didn't mean that you should close the terminal, I meant that you should accept the default and continue on to the question about what devices to install to.
[04:50] <illmortal1> oh crap...
[04:51] <illmortal1> can I re-run the same command again? Or will it cause an issue?
[04:51] <Magizian> http://os.hopto.org/
[04:52] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: I don't know for sure. What happens if you run "sudo dpkg --configure -a"?
[04:52] <luis> nautilus doesn't run on my session. the only way to run it is using gksu nautilus
[04:52] <luis> how can I fix it
[04:52] <luis> ???
[04:52] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Note that is *NOT* dpkg-reconfigure.
[04:54] <hiexpo> luis, so when you open a terminal and type nautilus nothing happens
[04:55] <illmortal1> Jordan_U it drops down to the next line
[04:56] <illmortal1> Jordan_U: still can't use upgrade-from-grub-legacy due to the process
[04:56] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: OK, try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" again.
[04:56] <illmortal1> ok
[04:56] <illmortal1> negatory
[04:57] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Please pastebin the output of "ps aux | grep dpkg"
[04:58] <illmortal1> reads: debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable
[04:58] <illmortal1> ok Jordan_U

[05:00] <mario__> hi all, can I check the packages from the website? like packages.debian.org
[05:00] <schock> hi. is this a good channel for support installing 10.10 on a sony vaio vpcz?
[05:00] <schock> I'm trying this for the third time tonight...
[05:00] <schock> there are various issues w/the dual graphics cards, etc
[05:00] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Ok. Run "sudo pkill dpkg"
[05:01] <stealth-> Hey guys. I have a ton of packages that are being "kept back", and I'm not sure how to unhold them. 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] <illmortal1> ok sounds good.
[05:01] <illmortal1> done
[05:01] <slashblue> can you dd if of a usb stick with 2 partitions?
[05:01]  * schock looks around for an 'ubuntu-installation' chan
[05:02] <EmuAlert> What's the best way to systematically rename a bunch of files?
[05:02] <rajvi> Hello All , Ubuntu 10.10 via Wubi very packages installs fine but stills returns failed to install
[05:02] <slashblue> I need to cp a bootable persistent ubuntu 9.04 to a new usb stick
[05:02] <slashblue> is that possible?
[05:02] <hiexpo> slashblue, sure just dd to the partition name
[05:03] <slashblue> hiexpo - so I have to first partition it exactly as the one I am cp'ing
[05:03] <illmortal1> ok Jordan_U, after killing that process, should I then continue with dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc?
[05:03] <hiexpo> yep
[05:03] <Jordan_U> slashblue: 9.04 is no longer supported. You really should upgrade.
[05:03] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Yes.
[05:04] <slashblue> since they removed drivers in the latest version it doesnt work on my new laptop
[05:04] <hiexpo> slashblue, and i think there is a clone commadwith dd
[05:04] <slashblue> 2740p
[05:05] <slashblue> HP 2740p , Ive tried a few distros, none work with my wireless card , nor video
[05:05] <luis> hiexpo, this is what I get on terminal

[05:05] <illmortal1> Jordan_U: after that command, I'm now in the "Configuring grub-pc and it reads, "Linux command line:" Do I need to type any commands there?
[05:06] <rajvi> i thinks my wi-fi driver is the problem
[05:06] <Onix3232> Im still getting the same error msg. (ISOLINUX 4.01 debian-20100714 ETCD)  is there some way to check to make sure its instaling on the CD properly
[05:06] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: No, just hit enter to accept the default (blank).
[05:06] <illmortal1> ok Jordan_U
[05:06] <slashblue> the new ubuntu 10.10 doesnt have drivers for Arrandale IGC video nor Broadcom BCM4312

[05:06] <slashblue> hiexpo clone with dd, hummm. think Ill try that
[05:07] <Onix3232> Ive already checked the MD5 and it does match
[05:07] <Senix> how can i bridge my wifi card and network card so i can use my laptop as a middle man for internet?
[05:07] <Senix> in ubuntu i mean
[05:07] <Onix3232> But its still not installing
[05:07] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Hit enter again.
[05:08] <illmortal1> ok now it's upgrading.. I assume this will take a few minutes, ya?
[05:08] <illmortal1> Jordan_U ^
[05:08] <Senix> illmortal1, yes
[05:08] <hiexpo> oops sorry luis think i sent you wrong link
[05:08] <illmortal1> ok. thanks Senix. In that case, I'll go grab a cup of ice tea :D
[05:09] <hiexpo> slashblue, http://www.brighthub.com/computing/linux/articles/17629.aspx
[05:09] <Jordan_U> Onix3232: Can you boot from other CDs? Are you sure the drive is good?
[05:09] <hiexpo> sorry luis what was your problem again got ahead ofmyself
[05:10] <qcjn2> hiexpo, ok, everything is done
[05:10] <luis> hiexpo, nautilus does not run
[05:10] <Gadu> I need to execute a command so that it repeats with the a number within the command starting at 1 and counting up each time it repeats
[05:10] <luis> I tried everything
[05:10] <qcjn2> hiexpo, do i have to reboot
[05:10] <Gadu> I've seen an example of this, but I can't seem to find it
[05:10] <luis> I get this error hiexpo
[05:10] <hiexpo> qcjn2, nah

Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
[05:11] <rajvi> ubuntu  10.10 on wubi .. its on a dell mini 10 .. i installed the restricted driver for it ( it works fine .. but i think its on installed properly ) returns a error code -1 .. thats why all other packages despite the fact installs ok still says installation failure
[05:11] <Onix3232> I dont have any other OS CDs, so I'm not 100% sure, but I think its ok.
[05:11] <Blueleaf> k
[05:11] <Saik> smw, thx for the help, I appriciate it
[05:11] <qcjn2> hiexpo, ok, thanks
[05:12] <slashblue> hiexpo -- tnx -- exactly what Im looking for
[05:12] <hiexpo> luis, umm i don't know sorry
[05:12] <slashblue> hiexpo  - googled it but nada
[05:12] <Jordan_U> rajvi: I would recommend avoiding wubi if possible.
[05:12] <hiexpo> slashblue, ok no prob
[05:13] <rajvi> jordan_u i understand but i think its not a problem wubi .. can i get a command to check my packages
[05:13] <Da_Wrecka> dammit, this is maddening. I guess I'll get some sleep and see if I can get any further tomorrow.
[05:14] <ruan> rajvi: check packages? sudo apt-get -check
[05:14] <hiexpo> qcjn2, so you all good now
[05:14] <qcjn2> hiexpo, that was really intersthing. It's a great tutorial.
[05:14] <hiexpo> qcjn2, thanks
[05:14] <illmortal1> damn still.. going.
[05:14] <ruan> wait nvm
[05:14] <qcjn2> hiexpo, well , i'll have to see, i just started mpd , but it crashed after a while, So now i 'll see
[05:15] <ruan> sudo apt-get check
[05:15] <Zopiac> I can't get Teamspeak 3 nor Audacity to detect my USB mic (hw:2,0) How do I fix this?

[05:16] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Did you ever get to the menu for selecting devices?
[05:16] <rajvi> its not working ... their was a command to upgarde .. can i get it ??
[05:16] <illmortal1> no, Jordan_U. It's still on the screen that reads, "The grub-pc package is being upgraded"
[05:16] <qcjn2> it crashed
[05:17] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: You need to hit enter to go to the next dialog.
[05:17] <hiexpo> qcjn2, darn
[05:17] <qcjn2> hiexpo, yeah
[05:17] <illmortal1> ya I did... and did again, Jordan_U it just sits on the same screen
[05:17] <hiexpo> qcjn2, what app you running
[05:18] <qcjn2> hiexpo, the guy from #mpd said it was a problem with vorbisenc, ffmpeg
[05:18] <qcjn2> hiexpo, mpd, music player daemon
[05:18] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Hit tab to get to select the "OK" button.
[05:18] <illmortal1> oh wow... lol I fail.
[05:18] <ruan> lol invisible ok button
[05:18] <hiexpo> qcjn2, is there anything special about mpd
[05:18] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Debconf dialogs aren't very intuitive.
[05:19] <ruan> how can i record from output?
[05:19] <illmortal1> lol ...ok and now I'll choose Sdd (the drive that both Win7 and Ubuntu are on)
[05:19] <hiexpo> qcjn2, or is it just another music player
[05:20] <qcjn2> hiexpo, well first i like it, it s a daemon, and you can make it play with differnet client. And i can icecast with it, so i can listen to my music from elsewhere

[05:20] <hiexpo> qcjn2, oh ok
[05:20] <illmortal1> hmm... actually it changed now, Jordan_U. Before it was on sdd2 (linux partition) and now it's on sdc... any concern I should have about that?
[05:21] <hiexpo> qcjn2, i use audacious myself
[05:21] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Like I have said before, you don't want grub installed to a partition. Ever.
[05:21] <rajvi> http://paste.ubuntu.com/579619/
[05:21] <qcjn2> hiexpo, well that is what i'm using now, since mpd won't work, but i can't icecast
[05:22] <hiexpo> qcjn2, has it given you errors when it crashed
[05:22] <jed__> hi there everyone
[05:22] <ruan> yeah, grub must be installed to the MBR
[05:22] <illmortal1> right Jordan_U. My concern is that prior to this.. it was on "sdd" but then my drive switched over to "sdc"
[05:22] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: As for sdc being the correct drive, it's hard to say as device names can change.
[05:22] <qcjn2> hiexpo, no, i can't see any. So i'm searching now, how to run in gdg
[05:22] <qcjn2> hiexpo, gdb
[05:22] <hiexpo> qcjn2, one secletmelook at something
[05:23] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Can you pastebin the output of "mount"?
[05:23] <illmortal1> ok Jordan_U. Will at least it tags the hard drive by its name, which is sdc now.
[05:23] <illmortal1> sure
[05:24] <hiexpo> qcjn2, so yourusing it to run like a radio station
[05:24] <illmortal1> pastebin.ubuntu.com/579620
[05:24] <illmortal1> Jordan_U ^
[05:24] <qcjn2> hiexpo, yes
[05:25] <hiexpo> qcjn2, what distro u on
[05:25] <qcjn2> ubuntu 10.04
[05:25] <hiexpo> qcjn2, why not just install icecast2
[05:26] <qcjn2> it s already installed
[05:26] <qcjn2> hiexpo, it works with mpd
[05:26] <hiexpo> oh ok
[05:26] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: Good. sdc is the correct drive (and the list of install devices is stored using /dev/disk/by-id/, which does not change when the standard /dev/sdX name changes).
[05:26] <ruan> finally.. analog stereo output + digital stereo input records from speakers >_>
[05:26] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: You're done.
[05:26] <hiexpo> qcjn2, ok one sec
[05:26] <illmortal1> awesome. Thanks Jordan_U :D
[05:27] <Jordan_U> illmortal1: You're welcome.
[05:27] <hiexpo> qcjn2, ok what the purpose of the mpd
[05:27] <ruan> is there ever a reason to apt-get clean/autoremove other than saving hard disk space?
[05:28] <qcjn2> hiexpo, hum, i can't tell you.... i just know that with mpd, a can run icecat, and it s easy, and i like the program
[05:28] <tohuw> is anyone successfully running multiple instances of redmine? dpkg-reconfigure redmine went fine, but now I'm stuck on what to do next.
[05:29] <qcjn2> hiexpo, and i like using different client for it
[05:29] <hiexpo> qcjn2, ok looking at it now
[05:30] <apiechowski_> Hello

[05:30] <apiechowski_> ?
[05:30] <schock> argh. network manager tool shows both wired and wifi devices in 'unaailable' state after fresh install
[05:30] <apiechowski_> It is very important to me that i do something.
[05:30] <hiexpo> qcjn2, what version of mpd you using
[05:31] <tohuw> !anyone | apiechowski_
[05:31] <qcjn2> hiexpo,  mpd (MPD: Music Player Daemon) 0.16.1
[05:31] <apiechowski_> Does anybody know how i could find the password of my forgotten pass account?
[05:31] <binMonkey> does anyone have suggestions for installing the latest vlc without building it from source?
[05:32] <hiexpo> qcjn2, pk that is current
[05:32] <hiexpo> ^ok
[05:32] <mak001> hello
[05:32] <apiechowski_> I have tryed both the shadow file AND the passwd file, no luck.
[05:32] <apiechowski_> I have also tryed John the Ripper
[05:32] <apiechowski_> No luck
[05:32] <juggernauts> I want to test my USB device driver with pendrive (jetflash transcend)...for tht i hv to disable driver already present...id for pendrive is 058f and 6387..can any one tell me how to disable inbuilt driver..
[05:33] <apiechowski_> Does anybody know how i could find my other user's password on my ubuntu 10.10 netbook?
[05:34] <Syberia> just change the password
[05:34] <apiechowski_> No.
[05:34] <apiechowski_> That isn't my idea
[05:34] <rajvi> hello all ubuntu 10.10 via Wubi  plesase see it :http://paste.ubuntu.com/579619/
[05:34] <apiechowski_> I want to see how easy it is to really find it, and if it's possible.
[05:34] <qcjn2> hiexpo, i'm doing like it says in the troubleshoot with gdb
[05:35] <apiechowski_> is it possible to figure out another users password in ubuntu?
[05:35] <hiexpo> qcjn2, ok yes was looking at any alternatives and there is none it appears
[05:35] <qcjn2> hiexpo, ok
[05:36] <Syberia> apiechowski_ if u know structure of password (what symbols are used) try to configure john the ripper
[05:36] <hiexpo> qcjn2, good luck  and have a good night   going to sleep
[05:36] <apiechowski_> Syberia, i forgot everything
[05:37] <qcjn2> hiexpo, thanks, going to , after the gdb
[05:37] <apiechowski_> syberia, this is a new computer, but i forgot what i set the password as... so i made a new admin account
[05:37] <rww> apiechowski_: 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] <hiexpo> qcjn2, no prob
[05:37] <apiechowski_> but i actully want to know (out of curiosity) what it is.
[05:37] <juk> !john
[05:37] <rajvi> rajvi is waiting .. tried for 3 days in a row :(
[05:37] <juk> !info john
[05:38] <hiexpo> !jtr
[05:38] <rww> apiechowski_: looks like SHA-512 on this system, so even less feasible.
[05:38] <rajvi> hello all ubuntu 10.10 via Wubi plesase see it :http://paste.ubuntu.com/579619/
[05:39] <apiechowski_> rww, i know it is SHA-512 due to the $6$ in front of the encryption
[05:39] <rww> apiechowski_: indeed.
[05:40] <apiechowski_> rww: is it possible at all that if i send you the shadow, u could find the pass?
[05:41] <rww> apiechowski_: mathematically possible or practically possible?
[05:41] <rww> apiechowski_: I mean, theoretically, I could punch random letters in and find it on the first try. But practically, as I said, if it's a reasonably strong password then no.
[05:41] <illmortal1> Anyone know if Evolution will support Exchange Server 2010 or if there's a different email client that supports it? Trying to setup my company email account.

[05:58] <prosthetics> Hey guys, i just downloaded gnome-shell (expecting to see some gnome3 awesomeness) from the software centre, anyhow, ive tried logging out and selecting it, but its not in the dropdown, and when i log into gnome theres no difference, have i done something wrong?
[05:58] <MarkSpenser> it isnt working fine for me dude...
[05:58] <prosthetics> im on 10.04 btw
[05:58] <bazhang> !work | MarkSpenser
[05:59] <Saik> MarkSpenser, then go research stuff online, there's plenty of forms and guides by linux users
[05:59] <Saik> forums*
[05:59] <MarkSpenser> one last thing
[05:59] <prosthetics> oh wait, i just worked it out
[05:59] <prosthetics> thx!
[06:00] <MarkSpenser> instead of making the ubuntu why does not everyone that is contributing to ubuntu start a good contribute to REACT OS....
[06:00] <bazhang> !ot | MarkSpenser
[06:01] <bazhang> MarkSpenser, if you have any actual questions (ie support) thats fine; chit chat is for #ubuntu-offtopic NOT here
[06:01] <Ycarene> I'm trying to set phonon to use oss over pulse, but pulse is the only output device in the list.
[06:01] <StepNjump> Saik, fortunately not everybody is like you on here!
[06:01] <Saik> MarkSpenser, reactOs IS linux, please, do your research..
[06:02] <MarkSpenser> dude i am not doing off topic bb you are offtopic and i think there is a reason for you to be here... without money i suppose? why you are hanging out here and not go out with your girlfriend...I tell you why. Cause you are a nerd you became a nerd when you first intalled ubuntu
[06:02] <bazhang> Ycarene, phonon in kubuntu?
[06:02] <Saik> StepNjump, what's THAT supposed to mean?
[06:02] <StepNjump> May those that have ears, let them hear
[06:02] <Ycarene> In ubuntu because I use some KDE apps within the environment and they go through phonon.
[06:02] <bazhang> StepNjump, move on please
[06:04] <gkahla> having trouble building an app that's looking for vasprintf - which library is this part of?

[06:05] <gkahla> thanks, bazhang - that helps
[06:05] <Fiveways> I'm having issues with panel icons not being transparent in the default theme in 10.10. is there a fix I can try? I'm currently trying the one listed here: http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/ubuntu-tips-and-tricks.htm under "set fully transparent panel" but it's not working
[06:05] <Saik> Fiveways, are they PNG files?
[06:06] <panfist> i managed to install 10.10 by using "nomodeset" from the live cd, but I can't figure out how to successfully boot off the disk. i don't see a grub menu like in older versions of ubuntu, and searching for how to change options has only returned results for older versions
[06:07] <bazhang> panfist, hold shift at boot and check the grub2 wiki
[06:07] <angelgv74> how can I solve the deskbar-applet-bug? some body may help me?
[06:07] <Fiveways> Saik: I believe so? they're transparent in some other themes, they were transparent before but after I updated my nvidia driver they weren't displaying properly
[06:07] <bazhang> !grub2
[06:07] <bazhang> angelgv74, which one is that
[06:07] <Saik> Fiveways, try reinstalling the driver then
[06:08] <panfist> thanks bazhang
[06:08] <Fiveways> I can try that I suppose. its just a distraction because everything on the panel is dark..except those backgrounds haha
[06:08] <Fiveways> I'm in the middle of something though and don't want to lose my dual screens. I'll try it in a bit
[06:08] <Saik> Fiveways, you could always just edit the icons too ya know :P
[06:10] <Saik> Fiveways, that's what I usually do when something goes wrong :P
[06:10] <angelgv74> «deskbar-applet» icon there isn't
[06:11] <bazhang> angelgv74, what does it do
[06:11] <bazhang> !find deskbar-applet
[06:11] <Ycarene> Ugh, I try to uninstall pulseaudio, but then it want's to basically uninstall everything else on my system to accomplish it.
[06:11] <panfist> i dont think i'm using grub2, because when i pulled up the menu by holding shift, it says grub 1.98 at the top of the screen
[06:12] <bazhang> panfist, yes thats 2
[06:12] <panfist> oh ok
[06:13] <angelgv74> in which menu?
[06:14] <angelgv74> (my first lenguage is spanish)
[06:15] <bazhang> angelgv74, is it installed? where does it normally reside (ie top-panel, etc) did you right click add it to panel after installing it?
[06:15] <bazhang> angelgv74, I've never used it, so not very familiar with it
[06:15] <maniax> why ubuntu doesn't provide a complete dvd?
[06:16] <maniax> not all people have an internet connection
[06:16] <bazhang> maniax, complete with what
[06:16] <maniax> complete dvd with repo
[06:16] <bazhang> maniax, you have an internet connection now
[06:17] <maniax> bazhang, yes but it slow
[06:17] <bazhang> maniax, or do you mean complete dvd with all the codecs included
[06:17] <bazhang> maniax, there are dvd iso's you know
[06:18] <bazhang> maniax, just no point though as the cd has everything apart from codecs on them
[06:18] <maniax> bazhang, i don't know if there is a complete dvd
[06:18] <maniax> bazhang, no, i don't need a complete codex
[06:19] <bazhang> maniax, you mean with every repo on them? the entire software library for ubuntu?
[06:19] <maniax> yes, like other distro e.g: mandriva or opensuse
[06:19] <bazhang> 6 dvd's, like that?
[06:20] <bazhang> free and non-free maniax ?
[06:20] <maniax> 1 dvd
[06:20] <maniax> mandriva just need 1 dvd
[06:20] <maniax> mayble for other app we must download manually
[06:20] <maniax> yes, i knew it
[06:21] <bazhang> maniax, yes, with all the codecs, for the free version.
[06:21] <visual1ce> hi
[06:21] <bazhang> maniax, remaster one then (a cd)
[06:21] <maniax> no bazhang, i don't need all the codecs
[06:21] <visual1ce> firefox 4 rc1 is nice
[06:21] <bazhang> maniax, the dvd has zero advantages over the cd
[06:22] <maniax> zero advantages?
[06:22] <maniax> what do you mean?
[06:22] <tsimpson> the DVD doesn't install anything the CD doesn't
[06:22] <bazhang> maniax, state your exact needs then. please be clear.
[06:22] <maniax> a good idea to remaster it.
[06:22] <bazhang> !remaster > maniax
[06:23] <maniax> ok, i'll try to remster it :D
[06:23] <visual1ce> but why is it called minefield?
[06:24] <bazhang> visual1ce, ask mozilla
[06:25] <maniax> BTW, why the UI for firefox 4 looks like chrome?
[06:25] <tsimpson> see the previous response from bazhang
[06:25] <bazhang> ask mozilla as thats not an ubuntu issue
[06:25] <bazhang> whoops

[06:28] <ArseneRei> Is there a way to get good font rendering in ubuntu? Something like this: http://ompldr.org/vNXllZQ
[06:29] <maniax> !foung
[06:29] <ruan> ArseneRei: there is a way to change font rendering
[06:29] <kothaguy_ubuntu> i have some games in my  hard disk,i want to play them in my ubuntu,how to play them,all those file are .exe,i cant able to play samll games like snooker,no needforspeed,the ui opens for needfor speed,after that it freezes,what to do?
[06:29] <ruan> ArseneRei: not sure if it's what you're looking for though
[06:29] <maniax> !help
[06:30] <ruan> kothaguy_ubuntu: look at the appdb
[06:30] <bazhang> kothaguy_ubuntu, #winehq and appdb for particular apps
[06:30] <maniax> !found appdb
[06:30] <jsoftw> kothaguy_ubuntu: In short, play games on windows
[06:30] <bazhang> maniax, please /msg ubottu
[06:30] <maniax> sorry bazhang :D
[06:30] <kothaguy_ubuntu> what is appdb?
[06:31] <ruan> kothaguy_ubuntu: did you not get the pm?
[06:31] <maf> oh - hey there maniax
[06:31] <cosmo> well since ubuntu wiped out my win7 partition I guess its time to try and switch completely to linux
[06:31] <ArseneRei> ruan: I'm not sure either. :p I've just thought what I have is the best I can get, but apparently fonts can look really crisp in linux.
[06:31] <maf> cosmo ? whaaaaa ?
[06:32] <ruan> ArseneRei: system > preferences > appearance > fonts
[06:32] <ruan> ArseneRei: check font rendering
[06:32] <maf> cosmo - tha's no good
[06:32] <maf> I wonder what went wrong ?
[06:32] <ruan> ArseneRei: and click details if you want advanced options
[06:33] <bazhang> !appdb | kothaguy_ubuntu here
[06:33] <cosmo> maf, yeah during the install of 10.10 64 bit it asked me if I wanted to install it along side my "other OS" so I clicked that option and it formatted the whole drive and finished installing
[06:33] <ArseneRei> ruan: I'll play around with it. Thanks.
[06:33] <bazhang> http://appdb.winehq.org    <---- kothaguy_ubuntu
[06:34] <ruan> cosmo: never install on the same partition as the other OS
[06:34] <cosmo> oh well been wanting to try and go exclusively linux
[06:34] <ruan> i also accidently did that
[06:35] <kothaguy_ubuntu> how to increase the space of wine,
[06:35] <maniax> great cosmo !
[06:35] <maniax> you remove "other OS" :D
[06:35] <bazhang> kothaguy_ubuntu, the space?
[06:35] <ruan> kothaguy_ubuntu: space?
[06:35] <kothaguy_ubuntu> i means size of the wine
[06:35] <bazhang> kothaguy_ubuntu, there's no limit save hdd size
[06:35] <ruan> more wine
[06:35] <cosmo> ruan,  thats the thing it is a 500 gig hard drive partitioned into 2 parts and I told it to install ubuntu to the non-windows partition
[06:36] <bazhang> kothaguy_ubuntu, that doesn t make sense
[06:36] <ruan> cosmo: lol, was it a ext4 partition?
[06:36] <maniax> ruan, maybe
[06:36] <maniax> lol
[06:37] <cosmo> the windows partition was ntfs and the one I had for linux was formated as ext4
[06:37] <kothaguy_ubuntu> what i mean is,when i tried to  open an game,it said the size is less than 1 mb,so i want to increase the size,so that i can play the games
[06:37] <ruan> kothaguy_ubuntu: size of what?
[06:37] <ruan> kothaguy_ubuntu: video memory?
[06:37] <kothaguy_ubuntu> ruan, :yes

[06:38] <todulchaos> Hey all, I just installed kubuntu on my netbook that already has windows 7 on it. I installed kubuntu to a flash drive. Though grub appears to have written something on the hd0 that has the menu popup for the options.
[06:38] <ruan> VideoMemorySize
[06:38] <todulchaos> i Get this grub rescue error if i try to let it boot on its own. IF i select the hd0 with the boot menu then that grub menu appears
[06:38] <AdiPramono> test
[06:39] <ruan> todulchaos: maybe grub was installed to your harddrive instead of the flash drive
[06:39] <todulchaos> I have even rewritten and viewed the MBR, there's no reference to grub linux or anything in there
[06:39] <schock> What could cause both my wireless and ethernet connections to stop working, when they had been working fine out of the box?
[06:39] <schock> I'm trying to do a fresh install here to resolve graphics card issues on a sony vpcz1390x
[06:40] <lockes> fresh ubuntu install?
[06:40] <schock> but now, although I've had both wireless and ethernet working fine for a couple weeks, they are not functioning :(
[06:40] <todulchaos> ruan: I suppose thats possible, if i remove the flash drive it does the same thing, grub rescue error prompt appears so it has to have something on the hd0
[06:40] <schock> yeah 10.10
[06:41] <lockes> are you sure ethernet is not working?
[06:41] <schock> 10.10alternateAMd64
[06:41] <ruan> todulchaos: you can find out where grub is installed with sudo fdisk -l
[06:41] <lockes> usually the problem is only with wireless
[06:41] <schock> lockes: yup
[06:41] <todulchaos> boot to kubuntu and run sudo fdisk -l
[06:41] <schock> lockes: i had no problem w/wireless for the last few weeks
[06:42] <schock> suddently a couple days ago it goes down
[06:42] <todulchaos> if its on the hd0 how to I move it to the flash drive so that I can just pick which one i want to boot to
[06:42] <schock> and now neither wireless nor ethernet working
[06:42]  * schock goes to restart everyting. bb soon
[06:43] <maniax> hi, i just image, how if ubuntu installed on intel pentium 3 with 256 MB RAM?
[06:43] <maniax> would it run smoothly?

[06:45] <ruan> todulchaos: not sure, but you can remove it from hd0 and install it to flash
[06:45] <ruan> !grub2
[06:46] <schock> network autoconfig failed again :(
[06:47] <schock> Hm. what are benefits / problems of activating RAID configs?
[06:49] <jsoftw> In theory, speed and/or redunancy
[06:49] <jsoftw> Possible problems are speed and or redundancy
[06:50] <schock> :/
[06:51] <eoss> hello can someone be my mentor and teach me everything
[06:51] <eoss> im fast learner

[06:52] <juk> !ask | eoss
[06:52] <eoss> i didnt ask to ask a question
[06:52] <jsoftw> This is true.
[06:52] <juk> eoss: it sound to me so
[06:55] <Cherish> Anyone can tell me the difference when I add init=/sbin/init after kernel in grub.cfg or not added?
[06:55] <evilvish> eoss: this channel is only for Ubuntu support ; depending on your field of interest you can join those respective channels and request mentors(if there are mentors) or just ask questions in those channels
[06:56] <schock> evilvish: is there a good channel specifically for installation questions? or here is good?
[06:57] <evilvish> schock: this channel is good for installation problems and support; for development there is #ubuntu-installer
[06:57] <jsoftw> :|
[06:57] <schock> evilvish: thx
[06:57] <evilvish> Cherish: do not edit grub.cfg manually
[06:58]  * schock tries to understand whether to configure software RAID or not on fresh 10.10 install on sony vpcz1390x
[06:59] <Cherish> evilvish: My system can't boot if I don't add init=/sbin/init aften kernel in grub.cfg.I wan't to know the difference between added it or not.
[06:59] <schock> this isn't a dual boot, so i guess not?
[07:00] <henryzlo> #join hzlo.net
[07:01] <evilvish> Cherish: not sure about that, but it should be generated automatically, or yo can add that option by editing the /etc/grub.d
[07:01] <evilvish> !grub2 > Cherish
[07:01] <FloridaGuy> !xbmc
[07:01] <schock> OK, no RAID. installing on the whole disk.

[07:12] <alabd> overclucker: thanks but  blacklist = remove ?

[07:14] <ecinx3> pankaj it installes by itself i think

[07:21] <RubenAlonzo> sorry man, just dont want anyone to get into hot water like me with that damned honey-do list lol!

[07:22] <pankaj_sharma> sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[07:22] <pankaj_sharma> http://pastie.org/1665793
[07:22] <ecinx3> did u try sudo apt-get install openssh-client ?
[07:23] <pankaj_sharma> yes.. no error there
[07:23] <ecinx3> then retried server?
[07:23] <sagaci> awanti, you'll have to do some mock up scripts for each computer to remove menu preference and administration
[07:23] <schock> clicking 'enable networking' does no good
[07:23] <pankaj_sharma> yes..
[07:23] <sagaci> awanti, lock down the panel and menus
[07:23] <silampaf> yes
[07:24] <alabd> evilvish: in fact usb tv dongel module with name of poseidon is not going to be loaded after i-humble removed pulseaudio package completely from my system and reinstalled it .you see that it has problem to be loaded http://pastebin.com/GeZ7rTND
[07:24] <RubenAlonzo> brb
[07:24] <pankaj_sharma> ecinx3: i tried all permutation but no result
[07:24] <schock> me wonders if there's a janky ethernet cable at work here
[07:24] <tom___> Does Ubuntu 10.10 need to be set up for ipv6 support? If so can someone explain it to me?
[07:24] <tom___> Trying to get a tunnel to work.
[07:24] <pankaj_sharma> ecinx3: wat are unmet dependencies?
[07:25] <illmortal> Can someone with Ubuntu 10.10, Firefox 3.6.16 or 4.0 go to youtube and see if you can watch flash videos?
[07:25] <Saik> what does xubuntu-restricted-extras install?
[07:25] <ecinx3> packages that it needs to install, for the current package (download) to work properly
[07:25] <sagaci> awanti, or really what you should do is set up user accounts for all users and then disable network changes etc after you've configured them properly
[07:25] <ecinx3> pankaj_sharma: note that i also am a linux newbie
[07:25] <pankaj_sharma> ecinx3: its ok
[07:26] <sagaci> Saik, do you want a list
[07:26] <evilvish> alabd: i'm not sure why you removed pulseaudio. but how did you reinstall it? and from where?  you could try reinstalling the particular kernel and see if that fixes your issue
[07:26] <alabd> evilvish:  maybe it will be fixed if driver be installed again , but how ?(driver is in kernel)
[07:26] <mehdi> do we have have chanel for dating :D?
[07:26] <pankaj_sharma> ecinx3: i think i should first update my system..?
[07:26] <tom___> lol
[07:26] <rww> mehdi: no.
[07:26] <ecinx3> one sec
[07:26] <evilvish> alabd: if you reinstall the kernel, the driver will also be installed
[07:27] <ecinx3> pankaj_sharma:  one sec
[07:27] <pankaj_sharma> ecinx3: ok
[07:27] <evilvish> alabd: dont remove and install, use synaptic, and select to reinstall that package
[07:27] <Rebecca> hey peoples, im trying to install mythbuntu 10.10 from the livecd but i have hit a snag. regardless whether I select 'install' or 'try' i end up getting presented with a login prompt when i should be either going through the install process or trialing it.. something is going wrong..
[07:27] <Saik> sagaci, yea, if possible
[07:27] <alabd> evilvish: pulseaudio is reinstalled before ... reinstall which package ?
[07:28] <tom___> Does Ubuntu 10.10 need any special configuration for ipv6 to work? If so can someone explain it to me? I'm trying to get a tunnel to work.
[07:28] <sagaci> Saik, http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/xubuntu-restricted-extras
[07:28] <evilvish> alabd: i dont know about pulseaudio.. but for each kernel there are 3 packages, so just reinstall those 3 and the drivers should be back
[07:28] <Saik> sagaci, maveric is which one
[07:28] <Saik> ?*
[07:28] <alabd> evilvish:  would you name those 3 ?
[07:29] <sagaci> Saik, 10.10
[07:29] <evilvish> alabd: open synaptic and search "2.6.35-22-generic"  you'll see 3 installed packages, those 3
[07:29] <Saik> ok
[07:29] <Saik> !natty
[07:30] <evilvish> alabd: btw, 2.6.35-22-generic is old, why havent you updated to latest kernel? and do you have the problem with latest kernel?
[07:30] <Saik> lol narwal
[07:30] <evilvish> alabd: 2.6.35-27-generic is the latest in maverick
[07:31] <alabd> evilvish: yes reinstall is inactive and upgrade is possible , but am afraid if system will be damaged with kernel upgrade
[07:31] <visual1ce> is there a way to make firefox homepage display a list of all my bookmarks? like chrome?
[07:32] <jsoftw> Good question, I has no idea.
[07:32] <alabd> evilvish: does upgrade so the same as reinstall for us ?
[07:33] <evilvish> alabd: it should not be a problem, even if the new kernel does not work, you can always boot to kernel 2.6.35-22-generic . kernel 2.6.35-22-generic will not be removed, the new kernel will be the extra option you can choose during boot
[07:34] <evilvish> alabd: i would suggest you upgrade to new kernel and try with that first, before you play with reinstalling ;)
[07:34] <alabd> evilvish: ok thanks and it's dowloading now
[07:35] <rageinside> i just removed my windows 7 partition using gparted and now I cannot boot into ubuntu
[07:35] <rageinside> using a live cd right now
[07:35] <ecinx3> pankaj_sharma:
[07:35] <ecinx3> pankaj_sharma:  did you fix it?
[07:36] <ecinx3> i have a suggestion
[07:38] <ecinx3> what's or are the best aol instant message ( AIM ) client(s) ?
[07:38] <pankaj_sharma> ecinx3: yeah now it works
[07:38] <ecinx3> hopefully with facebook support. I don't like using facebook in a browser
[07:38] <ecinx3> oh great
[07:39] <rageinside> can anybody help me?
[07:39] <ecinx3> looking at my software center i see that the versions match
[07:39] <ecinx3> and they are way off from yours. .so o apt-get update.. then try was my suggestion.
[07:39] <pankaj_sharma> ecinx3: hmm
[07:40] <ecinx3> or otherwise jsut use 'software center' just this once. not for everythgni you need to download/install
[07:42] <s3phir0th115> ecinx3, Pidgin is the IM client I use
[07:42] <s3phir0th115> I think it takes care of most needs
[07:42] <kimitsu> salut
[07:42] <s3phir0th115> Though I'd suggest xchat for IRC, since Pidgin's IRC implementation isn't the best
[07:43] <ecinx3> s3phir0th115: I'm on it now, but i don't see all of my buddies.
[07:43] <ecinx3> i'm on xchat and i really don't have problems with it
[07:44] <Niglop> my computer freez's every time i am on webcam/watching webcames for a little bit of time
[07:46] <infid> where's the 'untar' command? what do i apt-get? 'untar' package doesnt exist
[07:47] <Dr_Willis> !info unp
[07:47] <Dr_Willis> infid:  just use tar with the right options. or cheat and use unp like i always do.
[07:49] <infid> unp?
[07:49] <infid> nm
[07:49] <infid> thanks
[07:50] <Niglop> my computer freez's every time i am on webcam/watching webcames for a little bit of time
[07:50] <Dr_Willis> if you just type a command in the terminal. it also suggests what package to install to get it..
[07:50] <mrkrrtft> hi.  i want to not enter a password when resuming from suspend or hibernate.  I've already unchecked under gnome-power-management in gconf-editor the suspend and hibernate options but that isn't working.  Any suggestions?gconf-editor
[07:50] <Dr_Willis> there is no untar command. :)
[07:50] <jsoftw> tar -xf
[07:51] <infid> i've used untar before
[07:51] <Dr_Willis> Niglop:  does it crash if you just run cheese and watch the video for a while?
[07:51] <Dr_Willis> infid:  you used some alias that defined it.
[07:51] <infid> for when all you have is a .tar file that isnt compressed
[07:51] <Niglop> Dr_Willis» i dont thinkso
[07:51] <Niglop> it hasnt so far
[07:51] <Dr_Willis> Niglop:  sounds like flash is crashing on you . if its only crashing on web sites using the webcam.
[07:52] <Dr_Willis> tar xf foo.tar   (x = extract) f = use the following file)
[07:52] <Niglop> Dr_Willis» when crash flashes, usually it has a error in yellow or whatever, but my computers actually freezing
[07:52] <r4y> Hello
[07:52] <Dr_Willis> Niglop:  could be some hardware driver issue compoinding the issue. You could ssh in from another box and monuitor the logs/dmesg output.
[07:54] <mrkrrtft> hi.  i want to not enter a password when resuming from suspend or hibernate.  I've already unchecked under gnome-power-management in gconf-editor the suspend and hibernate options but that isn't working.  Any suggestions?
[07:56] <airtonix> I can't seem to find a busybox prompt customisation guide
[07:56] <mrkrrtft> anyone have any suggestions?
[07:56] <ecinx3> mrkrrtft: did you try screen saver settings?
[07:57] <fisch246> is wubi safe to use?
[07:57] <ecinx3> i'm on kubuntu so I don't know about the gnome settings
[07:57] <Dr_Willis> mrkrrtft:  you are refering to using the screensaver -> powermanager settings?
[07:57] <mrkrrtft> yes i've tried both locations.
[07:57] <Dr_Willis> Im on a desktop - so domnt even see the check box..
[07:58] <Dr_Willis> but i never use those features anyway. :)
[07:58] <ecinx3> fisch246: I'm a newb. but from what I've read it's safe but not ideal
[07:58] <ecinx3> safe, or safer, but not ideal
[07:58] <fisch246> btw... i'm talking about running Wubi on XP
[07:58] <mrkrrtft> i have the screensaver set to not require a tassword, but can't get suspend or hibernate to not require one
[07:58] <Dr_Willis> fisch246:  if you have no other choice you can use wubi. but i dont reccomend it.  also it depends on what you mean by 'safe'
[07:59] <Dr_Willis> fisch246:  you could alwyas use virtualbox if you want to experiment with Ubuntu.
[07:59] <ecinx3> mrkrrtft: try setting it that that screen saver triggers before it sleeps
[07:59] <mrkrrtft> that doesn't work either
[08:00] <ecinx3> Dr_Willis: are u familiar with virtualbox  with windows?
[08:00] <mrkrrtft> do i have to sudo gconf-editor?
[08:00] <fisch246> Dr_Willis: i have Ubuntu on several of my machines, but one of the machines has windows xp on it. i know how to fix the bootloader and problems like that if they occur, but i'm wondering if files and such will be lost
[08:01] <ecinx3> mrkrrtft: try pressing the lock button on ur machine before hitting suspend button
[08:01] <Dr_Willis> fisch246:  wubi installs  the user data and stuff in a disk file. You can always mount that file from a live cd to recover stuff from it - worse case. :)
[08:01] <fisch246> o ok
[08:01] <Dr_Willis> ecinx3:  virtualbox runs very well under windowws and linux.
[08:01] <fisch246> does it replace windows, or does it make the machine dual bootable?
[08:01] <ecinx3> I have a question .. that's why i asked if you are familiar with it under windows.
[08:02] <Dr_Willis> runs basically the same under windows forme as it does under linux.
[08:02] <mrkrrtft> ecinx3, i don't have a lock button on this laptop.
[08:02] <ecinx3> Dr_Willis: I have an ubuntu partition on my tablet. Do you know how i can access it while in windows 7
[08:03] <ecinx3> I have virtualization enabled in the bios
[08:03] <ecinx3> mrkrrtft: try a key combination.
[08:03] <tonysan> How do I dd an ISO file to my usb disk?
[08:04] <Dr_Willis> ecinx3:  There used tobe windows d4rivers to access ext2/3/4 (i think 4) filesystems.. but I hjavent used any of those in ages.
[08:04] <ecinx3> mrkrrtft: for ex in windows, by default windows + l locks
[08:04] <Jeyanth> how can I reduce the size of my desktop icon?
[08:04] <Dr_Willis> tonysan:  what iso? not all can be 'dd' to a usb and become bootable.
[08:04] <pvl1> tonysan, mount it first
[08:04] <tonysan> an bootable iso
[08:05] <mrkrrtft> ecinx3, it isn't that kind of suspend.
[08:05] <tonysan> I partitioned the usb disk to /dev/sdb1 sdb2
[08:05] <Dr_Willis> tonysan:  depends on the iso. You should use a tool line unetbootin, or the usb-disk-creator, or any of a dozen other tools mentioned at the pendrivelinux web site to put it on there.
[08:05] <tonysan> Dr_Willis: Will that make the usb bootable?
[08:05] <Dr_Willis> tonysan:  not all ISO's will work if you just 'dd' the iso to a flash drive. Some do I recall.. it depends on the disto.
[08:05] <ecinx3> Dr_Willis: damn.. I have a windows app called OneNote 2010 that nothing in  linux can replicate. and also a program for school Quartus 9.1 wheree the linux version is crippled
[08:05] <tonysan> I am using UNR 10.04
[08:05] <cosmo> do I need a certain program to mount an ISO and if so can anyone suggest one?
[08:06] <Dr_Willis> cosmo:  the normal mount command can 'mount' and iso.
[08:06] <ecinx3> mrkrrtft: I mean the key combination to lock the computer.
[08:06] <Dr_Willis> !mount
[08:06] <Dr_Willis> !iso
[08:06] <mrkrrtft> i don't want the system to require a password when resuming.  locking works just fine when required/
[08:06] <ecinx3> that forces u to put a password to use the computer again
[08:06] <cosmo> Dr_Willis, thanks
[08:06] <ecinx3> oh, mrkrrtft then I totally misunderstood your question. My apologies
[08:07] <mrkrrtft> ecinx3, no problem  :)
[08:09] <tonysan> now dding, 700MB iso
[08:09] <mrkrrtft> thx for trying
[08:09] <StepNjump> Guys, may someone tell me how to hide a folder in Ubuntu?
[08:10] <ecinx3> StepNjump: renaming it to .folder ?
[08:10] <aless67> hi
[08:11] <aless67> i have some problem under ubuntu and eclipse
[08:11] <StepNjump> ecinx3 what do you mean?
[08:11] <aless67> its using 100% of my CPU ...
[08:11] <airtonix> StepNjump: nautilus looks for a .directory file in each folder, list the file or folder names there to hide from nautilus folder lists
[08:11] <jiltdil> how to know the list of ip of computers connected to my network via command?
[08:12] <ecinx3> airtonix: good idea
[08:12] <StepNjump> airtonix, I thought I was supposed to use chmod
[08:12] <airtonix> StepNjump: sory it's .hidden
[08:12] <Syberia> jiltdil man netstat
[08:13] <airtonix> StepNjump: no chmod won't hide stuff, if they can see the folder they can see it's contents
[08:13] <jiltdil> Syberia: no not netstat
[08:13] <ecinx3> StepNjump: airtonix  suggestion is better than messing with permissions
[08:13] <airtonix> StepNjump: chmod will merely prevent them from opening a folder
[08:13] <Dr_Willis> its not truely hidden.  but just 'overlooked' by the filemanagers and other apps that know to not show them
[08:13] <StepNjump> ok thanks guys
[08:14] <ecinx3> Dr_Willis: true, but is he trying to hide it from ls, or from the gui?
[08:14] <Jeyanth> StepNjump: http://devilsworkshop.org/how-to-hide-a-file-or-folder-in-linux/ chk this
[08:14] <ecinx3> that would be a question StepNjump  would have to answer as well
[08:14] <airtonix> StepNjump: or you could prefix a folder or filename with a fullstop, but they can see those files if they use the -a switch on ls : ls -a
[08:14] <Abhijit> hi
[08:14] <MrMist1> Hi all
[08:15] <mena> hi
[08:15] <MrMist1> /help
[08:15] <MrMist1> ehm... sorry
[08:15] <Abhijit> which partition format i shoudl chooe (ntfs,fat32,ext4) etc for external hdd that hdd to be used among linux, and win xp, 7 etc
[08:15] <ecinx3> Dr_Willis: I have a windows app called OneNote 2010 that nothing in  linux can replicate. and also a program for school Quartus 9.1 wheree the linux version is crippled
[08:15] <ecinx3> Dr_Willis: what do you suggest so i don't have to restart to switch OSes
[08:16] <Abhijit> help
[08:16] <Dr_Willis> run windows in virtualbox ecinx3  is all ive done in the past for such apps.. assuming wine cant handle them
[08:16] <ecinx3> one of my fav linux apps is ViM and since most READMEs and what not
[08:16] <Dr_Willis> as for the crippled linux version.. perhps pay for the full version to support it.
[08:17] <Dr_Willis> I have gvim  for windows. :)
[08:17] <ecinx3> have vim support written in linux so  \\ // gets me confuesed
[08:17] <Abhijit> Dr_Willis, which partition format i shoudl chooe (ntfs,fat32,ext4) etc for external hdd that hdd to be used among linux, and win xp, 7 etc
[08:18] <Abhijit> choose*
[08:18] <airtonix> ecinx3: have a look at cherry
[08:18] <germ86> Guten Morgen
[08:18] <mintux> the flash plugin doesn't have sound in my firefox . what's wrong ?
[08:18] <Logan_> !de | germ86
[08:18] <StepNjump> guys, I'm in nautillus now.. so how do I hide a folder again?
[08:18] <StepNjump> just put a . before the folder name?
[08:18] <Abhijit> :-/
[08:19] <germ86> Good Morning
[08:19] <Dr_Willis> Abhijit:  linux can read/write ntfs very well.
[08:19] <Dr_Willis> Abhijit:  fat32 would have issues with very large files I belive.
[08:19] <airtonix> ecinx3: actually that's not it's name
[08:19] <Jeyanth> StepNjump: http://devilsworkshop.org/how-to-hide-a-file-or-folder-in-linux/ visit this :)
[08:19] <Abhijit> Dr_Willis, ok then i select ntfs
[08:19] <Dr_Willis> StepNjump:  rename it to be .whatever instead of whatever
[08:20] <Dr_Willis> thats not a 'secure' way to really hide things. :) but it works
[08:20] <ecinx3> full version for linux i think is crippled  too
[08:20] <StepNjump> Dr_Willis. .. I've tried that.. doesn't seem to work
[08:20] <r4y> http://www.flirp.net/posts/linux-and-gnu/239/How-To-Hide-Folders-in-Ubuntu-%28DEB-Download%29.html
[08:20] <ecinx3> besides it's $3000+
[08:20] <StepNjump> Thanks Jeyanth
[08:20] <ecinx3> not really for students
[08:21] <eto> hi guys i installed ubuntu 10.10
[08:21] <Jeyanth> StepNjump: np :)
[08:21] <r4y> inode
[08:21] <eto> and machine occasionally locks up
[08:21] <Logan_> !enter | eto
[08:21] <eto> Logan_: good
[08:21] <Dr_Willis> StepNjump:  .files are hidden/ignored by the file managers when you tell them to not show hidden files..  it should work that way fine. Unless you are expecting something else to happen
[08:21] <ecinx3> if i run windows in virtualbox woudl pressure sensitivity be there? and can i run the current installation of windows instead of a new vhd?
[08:22] <ecinx3> airtonix:  what's cherry?
[08:22] <StepNjump> Oh it works! Great.. thanks guys. I hadn't pressed F5
[08:22] <StepNjump> Thanks to all
[08:22] <ecinx3> Dr_Willis: if i run windows in virtualbox woudl pressure sensitivity be there? and can i run the current installation of windows instead of a new vhd?
[08:22] <r4y> I wouldn't want to install a package that hides packages for me
[08:22] <Dr_Willis> ecinx3:  you do NOT want to use vbox to run wiondows from a 'real' hard drive.
[08:23] <airtonix> ecinx3: the program i was thinking of that does pretty much all the stuff onenote does, but its not called cherry, but here's soemthing you might look at http://basket.kde.org/
[08:23] <r4y> I meant folders
[08:23] <r4y> sorry
[08:23] <Dr_Willis> ecinx3:  you can copuy the current install to a vhd i belive. But that may trigger the windows anti-piracy stuff.
[08:23] <ecinx3> it's fine i have professional editoin
[08:24] <austinium> hi, iam looking for some help with understanding the output of netstat -tnlp on my machine here http://pastebin.com/5M4r8Qna
[08:24] <austinium> other than port 22(ftp) iam not sure what the others are
[08:24] <austinium> help!
[08:24] <YankDownUnder> man netstat
[08:25] <austinium> ok thanks
[08:25] <ecinx3> airtonix:  i dont see pen support with that app
[08:25] <eto> how can one pass parameter to kernel on ubuntu 10.10 -> I would like simple explanation like with grub 1.5 open this file and add menu item here so it is default
[08:26] <airtonix> ecinx3: when i want to use a pen, i also use paper
[08:26] <Dr_Willis> eto:  with the old grub - you edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and add it to the end of the kernel line.
[08:26] <Dr_Willis> or edit the proper line to make it the default for all kernels.
[08:26] <jiltdil> i 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?
[08:27] <Dr_Willis> grub2 = you would edit /etc/default/grub eto .
[08:27] <Abhijit> is there any frontend for rsnapshot?
[08:27] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  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.
[08:28] <jiltdil> Dr_Willis: two instances means?
[08:28] <Dr_Willis> You 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_Willis> jiltdil:  run it twice...
[08:28] <ecinx3> lol 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] <Dr_Willis> ive used vbox befor to test out 'net' instlls from one vbox sesson to another. :)
[08:29] <airtonix> ecinx3: not my problem
[08:29] <eto> Dr_Willis: i guess stovck ubuntu uses grub2 as there is no such file
[08:29] <jiltdil> Dr_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?
[08:30] <ebah> eto, 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.1st
[08:30] <jiltdil> Dr_willis: should i set up virtual box network in bridge mode
[08:30] <ecinx3> airtonix: 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 .
[08:31] <airtonix> ecinx3: i wouldn't
[08:31] <airtonix> ecinx3: virtualised windows is easier to rollback when it gets viruses
[08:31] <ebah> eto, if you pastebin menu.1st, I can give you the few lines, even help you add in the perameter
[08:32] <ecinx3> I've never had a virus and been using windows since 95
[08:33] <Levikov> Hello
[08:33] <ecinx3> xdcc , fservs, usenet, napster, morpheus  & nada.
[08:33] <r4y> Does this work in Gnome?
[08:33] <r4y> http://chetangole.com/blog/2008/11/how-to-hide-or-protect-folders-in-ubuntu-linux/
[08:33] <Syberia> windows is a virus itself.
[08:33] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  i suggest checking the virtualbox manual, the networking section details how to set up the network settings for differnt tasks. Ive not messed with it in ages.
[08:33] <r4y> lol
[08:33] <Levikov> Partitioning ubuntu
[08:33] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  theres only like 3 options. try them all.
[08:34] <Levikov> help me
[08:34] <iceroot> r4y: yes
[08:34] <r4y> cool
[08:34] <jiltdil> Dr_willis: i tried all but stil i have some issue
[08:34] <qq910438219> hello
[08:35] <iceroot> r4y: but that is not a gnome-feature, its the basic way how linux works with file permissions
[08:35] <r4y> really
[08:35] <r4y> cool
[08:35] <r4y> bookmarked
[08:35] <qq910438219> where  are you from ?
[08:36] <r4y> Me?
[08:36] <r4y> CA USA
[08:36] <qq910438219> yeah
[08:36] <iceroot> r4y: for every file and directory you can define, waht the owner can do (read, write, execute), the same for the group and for all others which arent the owner or in the owner group
[08:36] <qq910438219> oh
[08:36] <r4y> I have a book here
[08:36] <Dr_Willis> hideing is not the same as 'protecting' :) Hiding is for convience.
[08:36] <qq910438219> ??
[08:37] <r4y> called Linux starter kit for Linux Suse
[08:37] <Dr_Willis> qq910438219:   You have a Ubuntu support question?
[08:37] <qq910438219> no
[08:37] <iceroot> r4y: better use a ubuntu/debian book instead of a suse book
[08:37] <Dr_Willis> qq910438219:  if you want to chitchat theres #ubuntu-offtopic for that.
[08:37] <r4y> I use Google a lot
[08:37] <iceroot> r4y: there are differences (sometimes big differenes) betwenn ubuntu and suse
[08:37] <r4y> for Ubuntu of coarse
[08:38] <Dr_Willis> the 'core' of linux - should be about the same. :) its the little things that often get you.
[08:38] <r4y> I sometimes read that book, but just to get to know linux
[08:38] <iceroot> Dr_Willis: suse even dont use LSB for everything
[08:38] <r4y> I have info for Ubuntu related stuff I have done over 2 years
[08:38] <Dr_Willis> ive not used a RPM based disrto in... ages..
[08:38] <r4y> collected info
[08:39] <Dr_Willis> r4y:  tomboy notes is a handy app for that. You can keep your notes on your UbuntuOne account and get to them from any pc.
[08:39] <ecinx3> Dr_Willis: can We use OS X as a guest OS w/ virtualbox?
[08:39] <Brando1995> what does chipset unsupported by current firmware mean
[08:39] <iceroot> ecinx3: no
[08:39] <Dr_Willis> ecinx3:  ive heard it can be done. but its not legal to do so.
[08:39] <iceroot> ecinx3: its not allowed by apple
[08:39] <Dr_Willis> not with the default versions of OS-X either.
[08:39] <r4y> OK, so that's what UbuntuOne is for
[08:40] <Dr_Willis> r4y:  amoung other things.
[08:40] <ecinx3> breaking EULA doesn't make it illegal
[08:40] <Dr_Willis> Tomboy notes acan autosync notes to it..
[08:40] <ecinx3> the law is > EULA
[08:40] <Dr_Willis> ecinx3:  but it is basically Offtopic for here. :)
[08:40] <iceroot> ecinx3: and this is ubuntu support, not apple or vbox support
[08:40] <ecinx3> oh  i see
[08:41] <r4y> I use text files, I have been told 2 or 3 times by other people to use Tomboy notes
[08:41] <eto> ebah: where should be this menu.1st located?
[08:41] <iceroot> r4y: another great thing is vim-org-mode  if you are good with vim
[08:41] <r4y> I use gedit not notepad
[08:41] <ebah> /boot/grub/menu.1st
[08:41] <eto> ebah: it is not /boot/grub nor in /etc/grub
[08:41] <eto> ah w8
[08:41] <r4y> vim?
[08:41] <ebah> ok, lemme look for it real quick
[08:41] <iceroot> r4y: great editor for the shell
[08:42] <dhanesh> defragmentation in ubuntu
[08:42] <leaveboy> vim is good
[08:42] <ecinx3> wait. what's r4y  talking about? I think i have similar questions/issues
[08:42] <iceroot> !defrag | dhanesh
[08:42] <ebah> eto, your sure it's not /boot/grub/menu.1st?
[08:43] <iceroot> hm, is ubottu broken or my irssi-theme? everything behind ext4 is black (on black background)
[08:43] <dhanesh> check for bad sectors how?
[08:43] <leaveboy> hehe/issues
[08:43] <Dr_Willis> eto:  its menu.lst for grub1 with a L not a #1
[08:43] <Dr_Willis> eto:  what version of ubuntu are you using.
[08:43] <dhanesh> ubottu>check for bad sectors how?
[08:43] <ecinx3> r4y:  what are you trying to accomplish?
[08:43] <ebah> sorry eto, it's grub.cfg
[08:43] <eto> 10.10 clean install
[08:43] <eto> no problem
[08:44] <Dr_Willis> dhanesh:  fsck command has options , or the badblocks command i recall
[08:44] <ebah> /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[08:44] <rudenstam> When I start mysql I get an message that I should use service mysql start instead of using the init.d.... however.. if I do use service mysql start, mysql does not start. Any ideas?
[08:44] <r4y> iceroot, Have you tried this?: https://launchpad.net/clicompanion/
[08:44] <Dr_Willis> eto:  then you are using Grub2.. and  you do not edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg by hand..
[08:44] <ebah> Dr_Willis, he's on grub2
[08:44] <RubenAlonzo> hey all, just wanted to pop-in one last time before i crash out for the night and say THANKS!! So far its my 3rd day of using ubuntu (10.10 netbook remix) and have gotten everything to work with exception of stupid sd card reader. But i will usb card reader instead and stop messing with it, lol, anyways you all be safe and take care.
[08:44] <Dr_Willis> eto:  you edit/modify /etc/default/grub and /etc/grub.d/* as needed
[08:44] <iceroot> r4y: no
[08:44] <r4y> It's different then what you just suggested to me
[08:45] <decade> halo
[08:45] <example92> morning, i need your hel please
[08:45] <decade> how to use backtrack?
[08:45] <Abhijit> help. in rsnapshot my root is snapshot_root	/media/name/ and my backup point is backup	/home/name/		/media/name/name/ and it is giving error that Backup destination must be a local, relative path
[08:45] <r4y> duanedesign showed it to me on the ubuntu-beginners channel
[08:45] <ebah> Dr_Willis, he's making a custom entry to 40_custom using one of entries from grub.cfg as a template
[08:45] <Dr_Willis> decade:  backtrackl has its own support channels. its not 'ubuntu'
[08:45] <RubenAlonzo> could not have done it without the help from the fine folk here. And i'm a total noob on ubuntu but so far it's been flawless.
[08:45] <Dr_Willis> decade: if you need a general 'how to use ubuntu' manual. see the following

[08:47] <DOokami> Thanks Dr. :)
[08:48] <r4y> dhanesh>	asked: check for bad sectors how?
[08:49] <turneralex> Hey guys, I need a hand with my ubuntu installation - it's driving me up a wall. My ubuntu installation keeps freezing, I cant do anything just move the mouse. I've reinstalled 5 times and I'm freaking out - can someone guide me in the write direction (I was thinking drive issue but it's an SSD)
[08:49] <r4y> Does forcing filesystem check on reboot count?
[08:49] <Logan_> DOokami: it looks like version 6.x works with Wine: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=246
[08:50] <r4y> If so which of these 2?, "sudo touch /forcefsck", "sudo shutdown -rF now"
[08:51] <Abhijit> help. in rsnapshot my root is snapshot_root	/media/name/ and my backup point is backup	/home/name/		/media/name/name/ and it is giving error that Backup destination must be a local, relative path
[08:51] <Abhijit> help
[08:52] <r4y> Well bye all
[08:52] <DOokami> Logan: thanks a lot
[08:52] <Dr_Willis> r4y:   that just checks the filesystem. theres ways
[08:52] <Logan_> DOokami: you're welcome
[08:53] <Logan_> !please | Abhijit
[08:53] <r4y> Where did dhanesh go anyway?
[08:53] <DOokami> there's two versions of wine in USC
[08:53] <example92> i just bought an mp4 and ubuntu does not mount it automatically, anybody help?
[08:53] <DOokami> which should i download
[08:53] <DOokami> ?
[08:53] <r4y> I remember doing a check for bad sectors before, man was that a pain
[08:54] <r4y> Now, if I had had an extra hard drive I would have backed up my data and used DBAN, then I would try to re-install Ubuntu
[08:54] <r4y> Anyways, bye
[08:55] <Dr_Willis> using dban befor a reinstall.. is a little extreme isent it.
[08:55] <r4y> Depends
[08:55] <example92> anybody can help me mount a mp4?
[08:55] <Dr_Willis> example92:  mount a video file?
[08:55] <r4y> But I am not a Linux guru at all, I am a linux newbee sort of
[08:56] <Dr_Willis> DOokami:  it just is called wine here.
[08:56] <Abhijit> help rsnapshot error ERROR: Could not write lockfile /var/run/rsnapshot.pid: Permission denied
[08:56] <example92> dr_willis i need to mount it because ubuntu does not mount it automatically when i plug it in
[08:57] <Dr_Willis> example92:  i think you missed some words in your question then,....
[08:57] <example92> yes, you re right
[08:57] <Dr_Willis> !mount
[08:57] <Dr_Willis> sudo mkdir /media/mountpoint     then sudo mount /dev/XXXXX /media/mountpoint
[08:58] <Dr_Willis> edited as you need :)
[08:58] <rudenstam> will still be a challange to mount a mp4 though ;)
[08:58] <eto> Dr_Willis: ebah : http://codepad.org/y3pzBrrZ
[08:58] <eto> current situation
[08:58] <Dr_Willis> eto:  its alasys a good idea to summaruze things like that to the channel.
[08:58] <example92> when i lsusb on terminal, there isnt the device
[08:59] <meiyueping> is ok
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> example92:  Plug it in, wait a moment or 2 and check 'dmesg' output
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> eto:  i dont even rember the original issue now. :)
[08:59] <meiyueping> where you are?
[09:00] <eto> Dr_Willis: i want to add kernel parameter to my kernel, can i just copy menu entry from grup.cfg add my params and add it to 40_custom?
[09:00] <Dr_Willis> eto:  you can do that much easier way - just edit the /etc/default/grub file and add the option to the proper line.. and rerun 'sudo update-grub'
[09:00] <Dr_Willis> I mentioned this earlier. :)
[09:01] <Dr_Willis> eto:  if you want a totally ciontrolled kernel entry. Yes. You can cut/paste from grub.cfg to the custome file. Ive done that for windows and other os's
[09:01] <eto> Dr_Willis: w8 please as  i am going to the ubuntu box to checkt hat file
[09:01] <ebah> eto, paste this into /boot/grub/40_custom, add in your perams and then run update-grub. http://pastebin.com/3K6iErae <----make sure your grab the raw
[09:01] <Dr_Willis> eto:  you want the custome entry for ALL kernels? or just 1?
[09:02] <eto> Dr_Willis: for the first one
[09:02] <eto> main one used for normal system operation
[09:02] <Dr_Willis> eto:  if just ONE kernel.. then make a custome entry in the file. that wont be the 'first' one. unless you reorder the file #'s it will be the last entry in the menu.
[09:02]  * Abhijit gave up on rsnapshot now using grsynk
[09:02] <Abhijit> :-(
[09:02] <Dr_Willis> whats the point of a entry for one kernel anyway?
[09:03] <Pethine> Hello all im trying to install XBMC on my mac 10.10 mac mini ppc. But I have issues and can not get through the install. Seems like packages are off line, says Faild to fetch (each package name) then gives ip of update server. Also says Some index files failed to download, they are ignored, or old ones have been used.
[09:03] <eto> Dr_Willis: on the ubuntu grub wikipage was written if i'll call it 01)custom.. it will be first one
[09:03] <eto> 01_custom
[09:03] <eto> ebah: thanks for grat example
[09:03] <Pethine> The instructions say to enable multiveres repository, I looked and the box is checked. What am I dong wrong
[09:03] <eto> ebah: i guess i need to change uuids to my install
[09:04] <Pethine> Doing
[09:04] <Pethine> heh
[09:04] <eto> Dr_Willis: i want to boot with journal=data but that reqires kernel parameter
[09:04] <Dr_Willis> eto:  yes.. if you reorder the file #'s .. thats correct..
[09:04] <Dr_Willis> eto:  and you dont want thast optiopn for all kernels?
[09:05] <eto> Dr_Willis: should i? maybe i should just modify 40_cust.. and then add it to all kernels if all works?
[09:05] <Dr_Willis> eto:  it would take all of like 20 sec to get it into /etc/default/grub, rerun update-grub and have it set for all kernels...
[09:06] <Dr_Willis> I have to wonder why you are wanting this option and how you learned about it.  Whats the level of your ubuntu/linux 'skills' ?
[09:07] <eto> Dr_Willis: i have it on arch , with no problems more over it "fixed" problems i was having on ext3 with data corruption on power loss, together with write cache disabled for hdd
[09:08] <eto> Dr_Willis: on the ubuntu box i just want to have maximum data protection in case of system crash, speed comes scond, is my reasosning right?
[09:08] <Dr_Willis> eto:  ive not realy heard of that option being needed. but if you want it for all kernels. add it to the proper line in /etc/default/grub and refun 'sudo update-grub'
[09:09] <antaresX> Bonjour à tous. Quelqu'un peut m'indiquer un canal pour discuter hardware merci
[09:09] <eto> Dr_Willis: i've already bonked and fixed fstab and kernel on several linux distro so i feel much more confident
[09:09] <Dr_Willis> Pethine:  a mac mini is a PPC machine?  or was that a typo?
[09:09] <eto> Dr_Willis: if i just add journal=data to fstab system fails
[09:09] <eto> as according to docs i found journal semantics cannot be changed for already mounted fs. even in ro mode
[09:10] <eto> as / is mounted with data ordered by default, changing it later in fstab won't work, so it must be passed as kernel param before boot,
[09:10] <eto> that is why i am doing it, at least that is what docs say
[09:10] <trijntje> Hi all, how can I check an ubuntu cd for defects? There used to be an option to do this on the live cd but its gone in maverick
[09:11] <Dr_Willis> eto:  what docs?
[09:11] <eto> w8
[09:11] <Dr_Willis> trijntje:  i think you hit the space key when the little man shows up and that gives you an extended menu.
[09:11] <Evanescence> how to use ncmpc to play local music ?
[09:11] <Dr_Willis> or just check the md5 of the iso/dvd file.

[09:12] <Pethine> any takes to the above question or am I just crazy for installing 10.10 on a ppc?
[09:12] <eto> Dr_Willis: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ext3#Enable_Full_Journaling
[09:12] <chinna> hi
[09:12] <Dr_Willis> Pethine:  well.. I never noticed a MacMini Being a PPC.. and PPC is lacking a LOT of features  these days for Uubntu and Linux..
[09:13] <eto> Dr_Willis: root requires this treatment same was mentioned on fedore forums somwhere regarding ext4 but right now i can't find the link
[09:13] <Dr_Willis> Pethine:  it can work  i imagine. but you wont have stuff like flash. and other  things you m ay want.
[09:13] <MyWay> hello, after the upgrade to java 1.6.0 u24 all java applications starts very slow! they takes 10 minutes.. I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 x64, anybody know the reason?
[09:13] <chinna> hi to all, how to get matlab 7.0 for ubuntu ?
[09:14] <MyWay> (java applets in the browser have the same problem)
[09:14] <Pethine> sure fisrt mac minis were ppcs. I really dont understand the issue itself. I figured this was just a package problem.
[09:14] <Dr_Willis> I thought the mac minis came out after the switch to intel cpus.  that was a long time ago. :)
[09:14] <Pethine> havent eve tried to install flash
[09:14] <Pethine> no lemme send you a link
[09:15] <Dr_Willis> Pethine:  xbmc also has some picky requirements on its video needs.
[09:15] <Dr_Willis> Pethine:  and xbmc right now is updateing some stuff. so its possible some of its servers are down.
[09:15] <Pethine> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mac_Mini
[09:15] <Dr_Willis> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/xbmc-10-1-released-and-ppa-installation-instructions-included.html?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=xbmc-10-1-released-and-ppa-installation-instructions-included
[09:16] <Pethine> the errors I am getting are from the archives of ubuntu
[09:16] <eto> Dr_Willis: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/15852 <- also there and here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1394315 in man mount excerpt
[09:17] <chinna> hi to all, how can i get matlab for ubuntu 10.10?
[09:18] <StepNjump> Guys, 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/c
[09:18] <Dr_Willis> eto:  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.
[09:19] <Dr_Willis> eto:  with the updates to ext4. im not even sure its really needed these days either.
[09:20] <Pethine> Doc, can post the text Im seeing in the error.
[09:20] <Pethine> I read a read today that some one had installed it and had it working.
[09:21] <Pethine> If possible (and I know you are a busy man) can you explain to me whats going on so I better understand.
[09:21] <Dr_Willis> if some archive servers are not working. You could weich servers.
[09:21] <Dr_Willis> there may be some down due to the problems in the pacific.
[09:22] <Pethine> wow far reaching isent it.
[09:22] <Pethine> how do I try switching servers
[09:22] <Dr_Willis> you edit your /etc/apt/sources.list but ive rarely needed to ever change. :) middle of the USA here.
[09:23] <Pethine> Ok I opened that with nano
[09:23] <Cherish> What ' s the difference between added INIT=/sbin/init at kernel boot command line or not?
[09:23] <Dr_Willis> back it up first Pethine  :) always s good idea.
[09:24] <Dr_Willis>  init is noprmally the first process started by the kernel i think..
[09:24] <Dr_Willis> so init=/sbin/init is the same as the default i would belive.
[09:24] <Pethine> will do
[09:24] <Dr_Willis> I seem to have a few servers down or slow to respond also Pethine
[09:24] <Pethine> what server should I add, what line, and any commands in front?
[09:25] <flexy> upgraded 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_Willis> what ones are giving you the issue Pethine ? theres country codes that can be used to point to specific servers
[09:25] <Cherish> It is different。。。。
[09:25] <StepNjump> Guys, 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] <Dr_Willis> for example in the us  I have a -->    http://us.archive.ubuntu.com maverick-proposed/restricted     see the 'us.'
[09:26] <Pethine> 91.189.92.170
[09:26] <Cherish> But I can't find the difference.
[09:26] <StepNjump> Is there a file where I could change the target?
[09:26] <Pethine>  / 80
[09:26] <erdosjiang> 如何让compiz动画屏蔽ibus输入框？
[09:26] <eto> Dr_Willis: search for rootflags word in those links
[09:26] <Pethine> indeed flash will not work.
[09:26] <Dr_Willis> Pethine:  if you like xbmc - you may want to go check out Boxee also. its like xbmc taken a differnt direction
[09:27] <Pethine> ok I will check that out
[09:27] <Cherish> Anyone know how upstart work?
[09:27] <Dr_Willis> !upstart
[09:28] <Dr_Willis> Cherish:  services ran from /etc/init/   basically.  Not really seen any good 'beginner' docs on upstart yet.
[09:28] <Pethine> would like to se xbmc working at some point first heh
[09:28] <Cherish> It's not clear
[09:28] <Dr_Willis> Pethine:  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.
[09:29] <md> приве!
[09:29] <Cherish> Dr_Willis: after grub load kernel, kernel called init，init called upstart？

[09:31] <Dr_Willis> upstart is the service handler.. so yes. init eventually calls upstart.
[09:31] <Jordan_U> Cherish: Dr_Willis: /sbin/init *is* upstart.
[09:32] <Cherish> If 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.
[09:33] <Cherish> So I don't think they are same.
[09:33] <Dr_Willis> Cherish:  why are you even doing all this?
[09:35] <Cherish> Dr_Willis: I can't boot my system smooth, I find how to fix it ,but I don't know why.
[09:37] <MyWay> hello, after the upgrade to java 1.6.0 u24 all java applications starts very slow! they takes 10 minutes.. I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 x64, anybody know the reason?
[09:37] <bentech4you> how to authenticate through MS ISA server..?

[09:40] <cosmo> is flash working correctly in 10.10 64 bit or is there something special I need to do?
[09:40] <MyWay> it's working, cosmo
[09:40] <Cherish> Dr_Willis: If I don't add INIT=/sbin/init at kernel boot command line, I will take an error, and can't see the login interactively.I should use ctrl+alt+F2 to go to tty2 to login.

[09:45] <Dr_Willis> eto:  check teh forums perhaps.
[09:45] <DND> any program that can save ssh session like in putty?
[09:45] <eto> Dr_Willis: maybe beacuse it never happened to you?
[09:45] <Shadownecros> question?
[09:45] <Dr_Willis> DND:  you mean log a session?
[09:45] <eto> try disabling write cache with hdparm and watch write prformance go down
[09:45] <plouffe> is there a MSN client for Ubuntu supporting voice chat?
[09:45] <Dr_Willis> ive not needed to mess with hdparm in years.
[09:45] <eto> the hdd performance is alie
[09:46] <DND> Dr_Willis, in putty i type the ip then there is a save option
[09:46] <DND> so i will not forget it :D
[09:46] <eto> with writecache enabled i got detroyed ufs on freebsd bcause of softupdates not being commited to disk correctly
[09:46] <Dr_Willis> DND:  theres ssh front ends if thats what you want.
[09:46] <Shadownecros> can anyone tell me a good site / book to learn linux, ubuntu more specifically?
[09:46] <Dr_Willis> DND:  or make an alias. or try that putty client for linux
[09:46] <Dr_Willis> !info putty
[09:46] <eto> some hdds outrught lie to sync and friends, that is what i learned, o to be ons afe side i always disable write cache
[09:47] <plouffe> is there a MSN client for Ubuntu supporting voice chat?
[09:47] <Dr_Willis> !msn
[09:47] <armydaleks> !info amsn

[09:48] <oCean> Shadownecros: nice start for ubuntu: http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/index_main.html (there's a free download)
[09:48] <plouffe> I have Pidgin
[09:48] <Shadownecros> oCean: ty :) oh adn i finally got ubuntu on my computer after a long battle with it
[09:48] <Dr_Willis> I dont use IM clients much. and i definatly dont bother with voice chat in them. :) you may want to check teh forums.
[09:48] <bentech4you> how to proxy authentication  through microsoft ISA server..?..please help me
[09:49] <Dr_Willis> bentech4you:  you have checked the forums?
[09:49] <bentech4you> yes
[09:49] <vooze> google found meebo in 2 secs.. also google first..
[09:49] <Dr_Willis> meebo.com is handy
[09:49] <bentech4you> everyone is saying ntlm..but that's not working for me
[09:49] <Pethine> wow 10.10 on PPC is not a good idea. Nothing works not even aircrack-ng
[09:50] <Pethine> I had no idea
[09:50] <Pethine> now I do
[09:50] <Dr_Willis> bentech4you:  so your actual question is how to get 'ntlm working to allow proxy ....'
[09:50] <Dr_Willis> Pethine:  :) now ya know why my old PPC is a doorstop basically
[09:50] <Shadownecros> anyone on i can talk to about a technical issue?
[09:50] <oCean> Shadownecros: good to hear! Try the book, then learn in this channel how to solve your issues :)
[09:50] <kit> exit
[09:50] <bentech4you> yes ntlm or any other techs
[09:50] <Dr_Willis> Pethine:  I cant even get the display to show proplery on mine. its offset to the left like 1/2 an inch.
[09:50] <Shadownecros> oCean: i had to buy a new graphics card to get it to work properly lol
[09:51] <Pethine> I shall reinstall the osx and give to small child I hate.
[09:51] <Pethine> Thank you for your time
[09:51] <oCean> Shadownecros: I forgot, there's also this one: http://ubuntu-manual.org/downloads

[09:51] <jiltdil> how to open pdf file via termainl?
[09:51] <Dr_Willis> Os_X at least makes itinto a useable ssh terminal. :)
[09:51] <almoxarife> how do I send data from a tcp:ip:port to a /dev/tty/?????
[09:51] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  programname foo.pdf
[09:51] <Pethine> heh, yeh hours of frustration over here already, first night

[09:52] <Shadownecros> oCean: ty again :)
[09:52] <Pethine> tahnks again
[09:52] <Dr_Willis> or is it 4:52? or 6:52? times change here today...

[09:52] <StepNjump> Guys, 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? Is there a file where I could change the target?Is there a file where I could change the target? Maybe there is a configuration file somewhere?
[09:53] <Shadownecros> bentech4you: how do i know who the techs are?
[09:53] <Dr_Willis> StepNjump:  proberly a config file somewhere.. You did check its docs?
[09:53] <jiltdil> Dr_Wills; suppose i want to open 1.pdf via termainl then i have to write  1.pdf foo.pdf
[09:53] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  theres several tools taht can open pdfs'
[09:53] <Dr_Willis> acroread foo.pdf
[09:53] <bentech4you> i don't know..but i am stucked with that only
[09:54] <Dr_Willis> then theres others besides acroread.
[09:54] <Dr_Willis> !pdf
[09:54] <jiltdil> ok thanx
[09:54] <oCean> Shadownecros: no need to talk to someone in particular. You can just write your issue in the channel (try to keep it single line, detailed) Then sit back & wait for answers
[09:54] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  same logic as a text editor or anything else ''   programname   filetoload'
[09:54] <almoxarife> is 'echo' capable of sending data from a ip to a serial port?
[09:55] <Dr_Willis> almoxarife:  if you figure out how to redirect it.. it could... but i dont think thats a good job for echo
[09:55] <Dr_Willis> almoxarife:  perhaps netcat
[09:55] <Shadownecros> oCean: my issue was a little more complicated then 1 line though, adn ended up with me buying a new gcard
[09:56] <oCean> Shadownecros: my response was to your question 'how do i know who the techs are?' - you need not to worry about that here. Just talk the the channel.
[09:56] <Shadownecros> oCean: ahh kk i understand now thanks :) i fixed the issue, just took awhile lol
[09:59] <Shadownecros> oCean: tyvm for all your help, i think i hyave some reading to do :) hopefully i wont need help after, but hey if i do i know this is the place to come back

[10:07] <scarleo> Hi, NFS entries in /etc/fstab are only mounted automatically on first login. How can I automount them also when switching user?
[10:07] <phoenixsampras> why my numpad stopped to work?? it doesnt respond anymore?? bug?? help??
[10:07] <Dr_Willis> scarleo:  i would think if the fstab entry was correct. it wouldmount at Boot time. Not login.
[10:08] <Dr_Willis> users normally dont mount nfs entries from what ive seen.
[10:08] <Dr_Willis> !nfs
[10:08] <scarleo> Dr_Willis: Yes, you are right. But that makes the entries only work on first login, not when I switch user
[10:08] <Dr_Willis> scarleo:  mine work at boot time.. befor anyone even logs in..
[10:08] <Dr_Willis> and a user logging out should not be unmounting those.
[10:09] <Dr_Willis> scarleo:  double check your fstab entries perhaps for starters
[10:10] <lotuspsychje> dr_willis u know any app for autofill webforms?
[10:10] <soreau> hmm
[10:10] <genewitch> what package is the default x server in? it's for an X server for forwarding elsewhere, so i don't need gnome and whatnot.

[10:11] <MyWay> hello, after the upgrade to java 1.6.0 u24 all java applications starts very slow! they takes 10 minutes.. I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 x64, anybody knows the reason?

[10:12] <armydaleks> MyWay: ask in #java
[10:12] <MyWay> ok armydaleks, thank you
[10:12] <pabloz1974> exit
[10:12] <Dr_Willis> scarleo:  well the only option you have is auto,users... so Im guessign the 'users' option is what you are not needing..
[10:13] <scarleo> Dr_Willis: This setup does no mount when switching user, if I do sudo mount -a it mounts just fine but won't automount
[10:13] <Dr_Willis> scarleo:  that would seem to be allowing users to mount/unmount the nfs share.. is that even needed?
[10:13] <scarleo> Dr_Willis: I thought so but I'll try without
[10:13] <Dr_Willis> scarleo:  EXACTLY what the users option is supposed to do...
[10:13] <Magizian> the women of ubuntu are sleeping.
[10:13] <Dr_Willis> why do you even need users to be able to do this?
[10:13] <scarleo> Dr_Willis: Let users mount the nfs share, otherwise root is needed
[10:14] <iceroot> the normal crypt-method on the ubuntu installer is crypting /home or crypting /home/username? i guess its crypting the partition not the user-folder
[10:14] <Dr_Willis> scarleo:  at boot time . it would be mounted anyway
[10:14] <Dr_Willis> mine were at least. :)
[10:14] <Magizian> darn.. #unix-hotties was empty.
[10:14] <scarleo> Dr_Willis: Ok, might be dependant on how the NFS is shared, but I'll try without 'users'
[10:15] <Magizian> #bsd-babes too..
[10:15] <phoenixsampras> why my numpad stopped to work?? it doesnt respond anymore?? bug?? help??

[10:16] <Magizian> iceroot.. that's classic.
[10:16] <Dr_Willis> scarleo:  read up at -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo
[10:16] <Magizian> I wish I could frame that one.
[10:16] <iceroot> phoenixsampras: hm sorry, dont know then

[10:20] <soreau> r41: which graphics card?
[10:20] <Dr_Willis> jwtiyar:  it probely is only adding the ones that are in your apt cache. if you installed somthing and its .deb is not in the cache any more. it would hae to redownload it.

[10:22] <lazyPower> I was a long time user of spidermonkey in the ubuntu 8.x days i see its been dropped from the repositories as of late
[10:23] <r4y> So then should I go to System, preferences, appearance, visual affects and choose none on the top of the list?
[10:24] <r4y> For when I want to record with recordmydesktop
[10:24] <scarleo> Dr_Willis: Thanks, I've read that page. Tried now with no 'users' option but still same problem. First time I login Fileserver is mounted but if I log out and then back in it's not mounted anymore
[10:24] <soreau> r4y: Does it work that way?

[10:25] <r4y> I can try and come back
[10:25] <r4y> I would think I would have to log out or restart but I am unsure
[10:25] <Dr_Willis> scarleo:   that autofs tool mounts them on first access. perhaps that would suite your needs.
[10:25] <soreau> r4y: Try rmd-gtk
[10:26] <Dr_Willis> scarleo:  i just set mine up in fstab and have a /media/NFS/othermachines   mountpoint i used to use.

[10:28] <AcePreshaw> My nm-applet had stoped working

[10:28] <AcePreshaw> I'm on 10.04
[10:28] <scarleo> Dr_Willis: Well that is yet another daemon running but sure, I'll give it a try.
[10:28] <r4y> I am running 10.04
[10:28] <r4y> ha ha, funny
[10:28] <soreau> phoenixsampras: iptables -F
[10:29] <Dr_Willis> scarleo:  i have never had users unmonting nfs shares. so you may want to double check that guide.
[10:29] <jwtiyar> Dr_Willis, no i mean that i installed from ubuntu center or those that i installed manually?
[10:29] <Dr_Willis> scarleo:  you can even set up /home/ to be a nfs share.  so users having controll is defainatly not needed :)
[10:29] <Dr_Willis> jwtiyar:  deb archvies are kept in /var/cache/apt/ untill they get cleaned out.

[10:40] <soreau> AcePreshaw: How are you connecting?
[10:40] <AcePreshaw> soreau: Wifi
[10:40] <soreau> phoenixsampras: yea I dont use it either
[10:40] <soreau> AcePreshaw: Do you have networkmanager and nm-applet running?
[10:40] <N4rco> exit
[10:40] <phoenixsampras> Dr_Willis: it works perfectly under windows
[10:41] <AcePreshaw> Hold on
[10:41] <r4y> wait should I pastebin the terminal then?
[10:41] <phoenixsampras> Dr_Willis: soreau so are you saying guys, that you turn off your laptops and walk away, then you turn it on again, like in the Old Times and restart all your apps, again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again ............  ???? !!!
[10:41] <soreau> AcePreshaw: service networkmanager status && ps ax|grep nm-applet
[10:42] <Dr_Willis> phoenixsampras:  mine is eithr on for 8+ hrs at a time.. or takes like 10 sec to boot...
[10:42] <soreau> phoenixsampras: No, Im saying I dont own a laptop ;)
[10:42] <r4y> http://paste.ubuntu.com/579693/
[10:42] <Dr_Willis> Ive had way to many programs and hard ware issues in linux AND in windows - to trust the feature with  real work.
[10:42] <llutz> phoenixsampras: /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume  has to contain your swaps UUID
[10:42] <phoenixsampras> Dr_Willis: but thats heretic... i have 2 monitors at home, and 3 at work... its so annoying to reconfig them all the time and open 50 apps
[10:43] <r4y> I am looking at the settings, but there is also a file that  believe is the config file for recordmydesktop under the home directory
[10:43] <Dr_Willis> open 50 apps? i think youneed to reconsider your 'work flow'
[10:43] <Dr_Willis> sounds like youmay be neeidng more swap...
[10:43] <AcePreshaw> Yea it rub
[10:43] <r4y> I am using the resolution 1024x768
[10:43] <Dr_Willis> try 2x ram + some more to also.. perhaps.
[10:43] <AcePreshaw> Runing the apps
[10:44] <artur> hmm
[10:44] <Wipster> Hi 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] <r4y> http://paste.ubuntu.com/579695/
[10:44] <AcePreshaw> soreau: is runing
[10:45] <soreau> AcePreshaw: Whats running?
[10:45] <mintux> the flash plugin doesn't have sound in my firefox . what's wrong ?
[10:45] <AcePreshaw> The network applets
[10:45] <Dr_Willis> Wipster:  it maybe the adaptor needs special drivers in linux. does ifconfig even show a network card? does dmesg even mention it..
[10:45] <zs1otb> where do I set gnome file browser to automatically play mp3 upon mouseover
[10:45] <soreau> AcePreshaw: Do you see the network icon and the wifi aps in the list?
[10:46] <r4y> What can display be changed to?, I tried reading the online instructions but didn't make sense to me at all
[10:46] <Dr_Willis> zs1otb:  i think theres an extra package you install, then thats under the preview settings in the gnome file manager
[10:46] <r4y> can it be 1024x768
[10:46] <r4y> how?
[10:46] <soreau> r4y: What error does it give?
[10:46] <zs1otb> my machine does it bu my wifes machine not so I wondered where to look, I'll have a look to see which package
[10:46] <Wipster> Dr_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] <zs1otb> you don't prhaps know which package
[10:47] <phoenixsampras> oh well, its a pitty to know that Ubuntu Doesnt support officially hibernation as marketed :(
[10:47] <r4y> This is from the error log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/579681/
[10:47] <r4y> hold up
[10:47] <soreau> phoenixsampras: Its a finicky feature. Some machines are better at it, other machines, no code can fix it
[10:48] <Dr_Willis> Wipster:  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 issues
[10:48] <Dr_Willis> Wipster:  plug it in. check dmesg, check ifconfig, try pinging the router..  wouldbe the first steps.
[10:48] <r4y> improper window specification which is exit status 2816
[10:48] <brontosaurusrex> Wipster, Dr_Willis it works here, but i have : router > adapter > switch > machine1, machine2
[10:49] <Wipster> Dr_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 windows
[10:49] <Dr_Willis> phoenixsampras:  often its the bios makers that have their own flakey buggy hibernate issues.
[10:49] <soreau> r4y: My guess is youre passing some wrong arg
[10:49] <Dr_Willis> phoenixsampras:  or you need more swappartion size.
[10:49] <r4y> please take your time and answer other people's questions which are more important, I really have a lot of time, I am not kidding
[10:50] <phoenixsampras> Dr_Willis: i have 12 gb Ram
[10:50] <Dr_Willis> phoenixsampras:  and your swap size is ?
[10:50] <phoenixsampras> Dr_Willis: like 8gb
[10:50] <Dr_Willis> phoenixsampras:  that may be the issue...
[10:51] <brontosaurusrex> Wipster, Dr_Willis actualy: router > adpater1 > adapter2 > switch > machines
[10:51] <Dr_Willis> I would make a swap partion of at least 12gb and perhaps bigger..  like 16+GB  and see if it works.
[10:51] <r4y> This is what I believe to be the config file for recordmydesktop http://paste.ubuntu.com/579695/
[10:51] <jwtiyar> Dr_Willis, if i do apt-get remove packagename the apt-get install packagename it will save in var/cache/apt?
[10:52] <Dr_Willis> jwtiyar:  if it redownloads it.. it caches it there.. yes
[10:52] <Dr_Willis> jwtiyar:  apt-get has a option to just download...
[10:52] <lotuspsychje> r4y: did you try xvidcap screencapture yet?
[10:52] <Wipster> brontosaurusrex, thanks perhaps the powerline in his case is not sending a link up or negotiated and the switch is sorting you out in that regard
[10:52] <Dr_Willis> no need to remove/reinstall
[10:52] <r4y> what's that?
[10:52] <r4y> O, it's a different program
[10:52] <lotuspsychje> r4y: nice desktop recorder
[10:53] <rmarvel1> hey everybody
[10:53] <r4y> I will try that
[10:53] <soreau> r4y: tried disabling jack?
[10:53] <jwtiyar> Dr_Willis, thanks i will do it
[10:53] <phoenixsampras> So Ubuntu doesnt work properly on modern computers :(
[10:53] <lotuspsychje> how can a user password protect a folder so that root can't access it?
[10:54] <MeanEYE> good day to you all
[10:54] <Syberia> lotuspsychje encrypt
[10:54] <Dr_Willis> phoenixsampras:  you want to try to fix it? or just rant and complain?
[10:54] <lotuspsychje> got a good package syberia?
[10:54] <llutz> phoenixsampras: it does, if the admin configures it correct
[10:54] <jwtiyar> Dr_Willis, its not saved in var/cache/apt  i want to save it there
[10:54] <Dr_Willis> Im pretty sure  that for hibernate/suspend to work the swap partition needs to be at least the size of ram.
[10:54] <phoenixsampras> how to fix it? been asking this by weeks
[10:54] <Dr_Willis> jwtiyar:  look again. If the package was downloaded.. its put there.
[10:54] <liquid_legs> hi
[10:54] <llutz> phoenixsampras: answers have been given to you
[10:55] <Dr_Willis> phoenixsampras:  and your ram is 12gb.. and yoru swap is 8gb.. thats proberly the main issue.
[10:55] <Nimrud> creating a php.ini for uploading more than 2mb is easy?
[10:55] <MeanEYE> Nimrud: yes...
[10:55] <liquid_legs> um grapes
[10:55] <Dr_Willis> when it hibernates it has to save the ram to somewhere...
[10:55] <soreau> r4y: Seems like a driver issue perhaps
[10:55] <phoenixsampras> i'm just trying in another laptop with 6gb ram, and having the same problem....
[10:56] <jwtiyar> Dr_Willis, i downloaded it from ubuntu center but its not in vat/cache/apt ?
[10:56] <Nimrud> and i need to chmod it?
[10:56] <llutz> phoenixsampras: /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume  has to contain your swaps UUID. does it?
[10:56] <Dr_Willis> jwtiyar:  or you are not looking for the right file name.
[10:56] <Nimrud> i created one and still i cant upload attachment larger then 2mb
[10:56] <r4y> Hmm, well I should try a few things, thank you for the input
[10:56] <Dr_Willis> phoenixsampras:  and the swap partion on that one is what size?
[10:56] <phoenixsampras> llutz: let me see, its starting now
[10:56] <phoenixsampras> Dr_Willis: 8gb
[10:56] <new> hi dudes, i am looking for a shorcut, like in windows it is [windows key+ left arrow|right arrow], that pushes windows to left or right
[10:56] <liquid_legs> does anyone know of a good download manager that actually works
[10:56] <Dr_Willis> it may need to be more. It depends on whats in use.
[10:57] <new> do you know is it possible in ubuntu
[10:57] <MeanEYE> Nimrud: you don't need to create one, but edit existing one... in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini :)
[10:57] <MeanEYE> Nimrud: and yes, you need to be root to edit that file
[10:57] <jwtiyar> Dr_Willis, i dont understand
[10:57] <lotuspsychje> Syberia: tnx for the hint, ill try some encrypting packages
[10:57] <Nimrud> Thank you!
[10:57] <Dr_Willis> new:  theres compiz tools/settings  that let you do that.
[10:57] <liquid_legs> does anyone know of a good download manager that actually works
[10:57] <Dr_Willis> liquid_legs: wget works...
[10:57] <Nimrud> so much, i thought it was inside my phpbb forum ... silly me
[10:57] <MeanEYE> Nimrud: no problem... bare in mind that php5-cli has different ini
[10:57] <Nimrud> okey
[10:57] <jwtiyar> Dr_Willis, i have too many application but aptoncd only sync those apps thats in cahce/apt folder

[10:59] <vietred> @liquid_legs: try DownThemAll add-on of firefox
[10:59] <Dr_Willis> jwtiyar:  that pulled in about 8 packages that inkscape needs here..
[11:00] <liquid_legs> oh yes inkscape is awesome

[11:00] <phoenixsampras> llutz: /dev/sda5: UUID="30302d1b-8adf-4546-8434-4d2a93fcaa23" TYPE="swap"
[11:00] <r4y> http://paste.ubuntu.com/579703/
[11:00] <phoenixsampras> llutz: yeh looks the same
[11:00] <liquid_legs> its a little weried and works completly different from himp
[11:00] <Dr_Willis> jwtiyar:  download only.. like i mentiopned earlier..
[11:00] <liquid_legs> gimp
[11:00] <MeanEYE> new: then new option will be added in System -> Preferences
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> liquid_legs:  bitmap image editor vs vector. :) has tobe differnt.
[11:01] <jwtiyar> Dr_Willis, its dont want to download them againn
[11:01] <lotuspsychje> liquid_legs: there are some good firefox manager addons out there too
[11:01] <phoenixsampras> llutz: Dr_Willis i just found out my swap is 18gb aprox, /dev/sda5           58574       60802    17890304   82  Linux swap / Solaris
[11:01] <Dr_Willis> jwtiyar: if they are NOT in the cache it will download them. if they are.. it wont.
[11:01] <liquid_legs> what does vector mean anyway, ive heard of it but i dont know what it means
[11:02] <MeanEYE> liquid_legs: raster graphics - images are drawn using pixels (small dots)
[11:02] <Dr_Willis> willis@Cow:/var/cache/apt/archives$ ls | grep ink
[11:02] <liquid_legs> ohhhhhh ok
[11:02] <Dr_Willis> inkscape_0.48.0-1ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb
[11:02] <Dr_Willis> jwtiyar:  thats the pacakge it downloaded here.
[11:02] <MeanEYE> liquid_legs: vector graphics - not pixels but mathematically defined shapes
[11:02] <MeanEYE> liquid_legs: so to speak :D
[11:03] <new> i have installed compiz thanks , but i can not see any option for it Dr_Willis
[11:03] <MeanEYE> liquid_legs: difference is, vector grapichs doesn't loose quality when zoomed in
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> The orinal 'asteroids' and a few other arcade games where 'vector' drawn. :)
[11:03] <liquid_legs> yep ok
[11:03] <Dr_Willis> new:  theres #compiz channel, the ccsm tool has so many settings I dont know whats there any more
[11:03] <MeanEYE> Dr_Willis: really? didn't know that :D
[11:03] <jwtiyar> Dr_Willis, i didi this for eclipse and output was http://pastebin.com/0nAw9Xea and its not exist in cache
[11:03] <new> ok , thanks

[11:04] <liquid_legs> does anyone know a good tutorial for inkscape on how to give text a good glossy look. because i cant really seem to find much tutorials around that really are a help
[11:04] <new> for like, in windows it is windows+rightarrow|leftarrow
[11:04] <wzyifen> ????
[11:04] <new> that pushes windows to left or right of screen
[11:04] <Dr_Willis> jwtiyar:  eclipse is pullng in about 50 + packages here.
[11:05] <liquid_legs> well actually i cant find any
[11:05] <Dr_Willis> 208mb of archivews.. eww.

[11:05] <soreau> new: Does alt+f7 help?
[11:05] <new> the current window become the half of the screen
[11:05] <ankur> how to create my own channel on IRC?
[11:06] <Dr_Willis> new:  compiz has the 'ccsm' tool that has plugins that can map specific actions to keys. so odds are it can do it. somehow.
[11:06] <Dr_Willis> ankur:  /join #ankur
[11:06] <ankur> thanks
[11:06] <soreau> new: That is grid. Install ccsm and compiz-fusion-plugins-extra, then enable Grid in ccsm>Window Management
[11:06] <jwtiyar> Dr_Willis, its not in archives
[11:06] <MeanEYE> new: ouch, never done that
[11:06] <Tectu> hey guys. How can i export some .c and .h file which i donwloaded via Firefox to my system that i can use them with make?
[11:06] <liquid_legs> has anyone tried out team veiwer lately i think its awesome
[11:06] <MeanEYE> new: am not sure if its possible
[11:06] <new> it is piling up
[11:07] <new> install that install that :d
[11:07] <soreau> Tectu: Those are source files. What are you trying to do ultimately?
[11:07] <MeanEYE> new: don't worry about installing additional packages, system janitor can pick out most of those
[11:07] <Dr_Willis> new:  learn the basics first. then worry about vustomizing later.
[11:07] <liquid_legs> its so cool just being able to remotly connect to other peoples pc over the internet
[11:07] <soreau> new: Its very easy. sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-fusion-plugins-extra
[11:07] <Tectu> soreau, That are librarys (sourcefiles) to programm microcontrollers.
[11:07] <new> but , i am using that options so frequently
[11:08] <soreau> new: Then find ccsm in sys>prefs menu
[11:08] <MeanEYE> soreau: thanks, I forgot about :/ extra plugins... keep forggeting them :/
[11:08] <Dr_Willis> new:  differnt habbits i guess..
[11:08] <soreau> MeanEYE: ubuntu only recently stopped including -extra pack by default
[11:08] <Dr_Willis> I HATE how the windows fill in half/all/whatever whwn i drag them around in windows. :)
[11:09] <Tectu> Dr_Willis, deactivate it.
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> compiz can emulate that feature somwhow ive seen.
[11:09] <MeanEYE> soreau: yeah I know, from 10.10 ... but I rarely reinstall my os, so I keep forgeting ti :)
[11:09] <sedeki> how do i install gdm themes in ubuntu 10.10?
[11:09] <new> yeah, it is kind of habit
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> sedeki:   the old gdm themes wont work with the new gdm. You need to find gdm2 themes..
[11:09] <soreau> Dr_Willis: You can fake it with 0.8 or use the implementation in grid-0.9
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> sedeki:  but other then that.. basically I just change the gdm wallpaper and leave it alone.
[11:09] <eto> in ubuntu 10.10 how can i make ubuntu show keyboard layout in panel?
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> soreau:  yea. latest kde has the same feature.
[11:09] <r4y> I'll be back
[11:10] <soreau> Dr_Willis: The only difference is, kde sucks ;)
[11:10] <MeanEYE> eto: should be displayed automatically once you add more languages
[11:10] <sedeki> Dr_Willis, i don't know how to install gdm2 themes either
[11:10] <sedeki> there's no dialog for that
[11:10] <Dr_Willis> since i have 2 pane file managers.. i dont need  that trick to get a simile rlayout in windows any more. :)
[11:10] <eto> MeanEYE: there is some shitty keyboard icon displayed instead of 3 letter abv
[11:10] <Tectu> soreau, so, can you help me?
[11:10] <vietred> soreau: I don't think so, KDE's cool
[11:10] <Dr_Willis> sedeki:  Yep. its not very themeable..
[11:10] <sedeki> ok
[11:10] <eto> i would like to see what keyboard i actually have selected
[11:10] <Dr_Willis> sedeki:  i change wallpaper.. and thats about it.
[11:11] <MeanEYE> eto: are you using default icon theme?
[11:11] <soreau> Tectu: I still have no idea what you are trying to accomplish
[11:11] <eto> yes i guess
[11:11] <eto> orange folders
[11:11] <eto> white windows
[11:11] <MeanEYE> eto: can you provide a screen shot?
[11:11] <soreau> vietred: s/cool/kool
[11:11] <eto> hmm with what
[11:11]  * Pablo74 hello all
[11:11] <MeanEYE> eto: just notification area
 soreau, That are librarys (sourcefiles) to programm microcontrollers.          || i downloaded some sourcefiles, headerfiles, that i can use inside a programm for a microcontroller. But when i compile via. make, it dosen't fine the library, because there aren't in a default sourcefile folder
[11:12] <vietred> soreau: yeah, my bad :D
[11:12] <eto> there is no scrot
[11:12] <MeanEYE> eto: did you add additional languages in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard -> Layouts?
[11:12] <soreau> Tectu: Did these files come with a Makefile? If not, you will likely want to build them with gcc..
[11:13] <eto> MeanEYE: question rephrased, how can i make screenshot?
[11:13] <mystd> hi
[11:13] <eto> in ubuntu?
[11:13] <soreau> Tectu: What does the code produce? Device driver?
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> eto:  the printscreen key..
[11:13] <overclucker> Tectu: use -I and -L to add include and lib paths to gcc, other compilers have similar features
[11:13] <mystd> just a short question: how do I remove wirte protection from afile or folde rin terminal?
[11:13] <MeanEYE> eto: press Print Screen on your keyboard or Application -> Accessories -> Take Screenshot
[11:13] <mystd> write
[11:13] <Tectu> overclucker, okay I'll try that.
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> mystd:  chmod it to be whatver permissions you want
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> !permissions | mystd
[11:14] <paddybird> the command chmod  will help you
[11:14] <mystd> thx i was googling it but only got how I can rm them
[11:14] <MeanEYE> mystd: if you want to remove write for exampple: chmod -w some_file.txt
[11:15] <MeanEYE> mystd: or you can chmod o-w some_file.txt to remove write for others
[11:15] <mystd> well its for setting up smf
[11:15] <r4y> http://paste.ubuntu.com/579707/
[11:15] <Note-book> Im trying to install my Ricoh webcam on my HP Dv6000 using these instructions: https://launchpad.net/~r5u87x-loader/+archive/ppa...........everything works fine but when I follow the last step it says: cd: 78: can't cd to r5u87x......I tried googling but no one else seems to have this problem :(
[11:15] <MeanEYE> mystd: I don't know what smf is :)
[11:15] <Dr_Willis> you can always use the # methiod also to chmod
[11:15] <mystd> and I need to manually remove writeprotection for the install.php
[11:16] <Dr_Willis> I found a neat little 'chmod calculator' program for my android phone. :) hit the + and -'s and it shows you the # to use.
[11:16] <mystd> simple machines forum
[11:16] <MeanEYE> mystd: chmod +w install.php
[11:16] <Dr_Willis> mystd:  you mean make it Writeable...
[11:16] <mystd> yea
[11:16] <mystd> remove the protection
[11:16] <mystd> thx a lot

[11:19] <r4y> hello again
[11:20] <ankur> can anyone tell me HOW To setup my own network on IRC and start it...
[11:20] <r4y> Here's what I got: http://paste.ubuntu.com/579707/
[11:20] <Dr_Willis> ankur:  you mean run your own irc server?
[11:20] <r4y> I use chatzilla
[11:20] <ankur> not server
[11:20] <r4y> sorry
[11:20] <Dr_Willis> ankur:  then i think you need to clarify the question.
[11:21] <ankur> i want to create my own group  kind of thing and get my friends to chat
[11:21] <soreau> ankur: You mean your own channell?
[11:21] <ankur> yeah
[11:21] <soreau> ankur: Ask in #freenode
[11:21] <ankur> ok
[11:21] <Dr_Willis> You just join a channel and if it dosent exist.. it creates it..
[11:22] <Saik> ankur, pm me
[11:22] <soreau> ankur: Basically, you just join an empty channel, claim it and start using it
[11:22] <Dr_Willis> ankur:  /j #ankur-home-channel
[11:22] <phoenixsampras> Dr_Willis: llutz how to suspend by command line?
[11:22] <mystd> hmm didnt work T_T
[11:22] <ankur> kk i'll try that
[11:22] <r4y> http://paste.ubuntu.com/579707/
[11:22] <mystd> anyone good with webmin?
[11:22] <r4y> wid?
[11:22] <Dr_Willis> phoenixsampras:  option to the shutdown command perhaps.
[11:22] <Dr_Willis> mystd:  webmin is basically unsupported on ubuntu and debian.
[11:22] <jonalv> I am thinking of upgrading to Ubuntu 10.10 but noticed somethign about f-spot being removed. After some googling I found a slashdot post about f-spot being replaced by something called shotwell. Would you guys know if this shotwell imports the f-spot images? I trust Ubuntu will not remove all my thousands of photos i have in f-spot? Perhaps I can still install f-spot after the upgrade?
[11:23] <oCean> r4y: you hit a known bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk-recordmydesktop/+bug/556345
[11:23] <Dr_Willis> !info f-spot
[11:23] <mystd> yea but I still got it installed with a tut
[11:23] <soreau> r4y: That output isnt useful because it doesnt start with the command ran initially
[11:23] <mystd> I really need it
[11:23] <Dr_Willis> jonalv:  its still in the repos.. not installed by default.
[11:23] <r4y> OK
[11:23] <r4y> sec
[11:23] <jonalv> Dr_Willis: so all my images are safe?
[11:23] <Dr_Willis> jonalv:  you got them backed up?
[11:23] <mystd> Im trying to make my first lamp
[11:23] <MeanEYE> jonalv: if you just upgrade to new version non of your programs will be removed, if you do a fresh install you can still install it manually
[11:24] <r4y> http://paste.ubuntu.com/579711/
[11:24] <Dr_Willis> jonalv:  i dont use either of the apps...
[11:24] <ElNota> Anyone knows how to remove old kernels of my system? I want to hold only the newest one
[11:24] <mystd> got everything installed but now Im stuck installing the forum XD
[11:24] <Dr_Willis> ElNota:  computer-janitor tool can do that. I suggest keeping at least 2 kernels.
[11:24] <MeanEYE> jonalv: yes your files are safe and located in ~/Pictures, removing one program won't remove your pictures
[11:24] <jonalv> Dr_Willis: only raided, I haven't got a seperate backup, that is I can handly hardware failure but not software... :/
[11:24] <oCean> r4y: what?
[11:25] <MeanEYE> ElNota: system does that automatically, do you get a menu when booting?
[11:25] <r4y> so there's a patch
[11:26] <r4y> I posted the full output of the terminal rather then the end
[11:26] <ElNota> Dr_Willis: It gives me a list with a lot of old programs, but not kernels
[11:27] <mystd> what do I need to input if i want a whole folder with subolders and content chmod +w?
[11:28] <overclucker> mystd: chmod -R
[11:28] <MeanEYE> mystd: chmod +w -R folder
[11:28] <mystd> k thx Ill try that
[11:28] <eto> MeanEYE: Dr_Willis: http://junk.ethome.sk/screen.png
[11:28] <r4y> How do I apply this patch?:
[11:28] <r4y> http://launchpadlibrarian.net/63917593/gtk-recordmydesktop_select_window.patch
[11:29] <Dr_Willis> ElNota:  they may of removed that feature.. since ive sene that app remove kernels that were in use..   You could use the normal package manager also.
[11:29] <MeanEYE> eto: you removed indicator applet?
[11:30] <mystd> still not working ok then it's a problem with apache
[11:30] <MeanEYE> mystd: check /var/log/apache2/error.log
[11:30] <eto> there was nothing no applet
[11:30] <eto> MeanEYE: you mean that other thing with little letter image?
[11:30] <MeanEYE> eto: indicator is missing, try reseting panel and then see if it comes back
[11:31] <eto> yes, i removed that i wanted just keyboard showed, okay i bring it back, how can i remove the keyboard icon then?
[11:31] <eto> it is reappearing

[11:32] <MeanEYE> eto: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17162929/screenshot3.png that's indicator applet
[11:32] <shawnboy> I've read how to create separate home partition, but how do I setup 1 separate partition for each user exluding config files (beginning with .)?

[11:35] <v_v> is it possible to let mailx pick gmail ?
[11:35] <mystd> ahh ok I have to change the permission to 0777 what evers that does
[11:35] <MeanEYE> v_v: gmail supports pop3 and imap, if mailx supports one of those, yes
[11:35] <Dr_Willis> mystd:  you really SHould read tht !permissions factoid url
[11:35] <Dr_Willis> !permissions | mystd
[11:35] <v_v> MeanEYE: ok, thanks, im going to rtfm ;)
[11:36] <MeanEYE> v_v: ^^
[11:36] <Note-book> Im trying to install my Ricoh webcam on my HP Dv6000 using these instructions: https://launchpad.net/~r5u87x-loader/+archive/ppa...........everything works fine but when I follow the last step it says: cd: 78: can't cd to r5u87x......I tried googling but no one else seems to have this problem :(
[11:36] <Note-book> is there something wrong with my connection? :(
[11:36] <Note-book> how come everyone's quiet again? :/
[11:36] <MeanEYE> Note-book: that part of the day
[11:36] <MeanEYE> am guessing only hard core geeks are awake at sunday morniing :P
[11:36]  * Dr_Willis looks up...
[11:37] <MeanEYE> haha <3
[11:38] <Dr_Willis> Note-book:  you are spelling everytyhing right?
[11:38] <Dr_Willis> Note-book:  sudo /usr/share/r5u87x/r5u87x-download-firmware.sh
[11:38] <rudenstam> When I start mysql I get an message that I should use service mysql start instead of using the init.d.... however.. if I do use service mysql start, mysql does not start. Any ideas?
[11:38] <MeanEYE> rudenstam: when you call script in init.d does it start then?
[11:39] <mystd> well got it ^-^ thx a lot I'll read the filepermissions now ^-^
[11:39] <rudenstam> MeanEYE: yes
[11:39] <overclucker> mystd: 777 is read+write+execute for user, group, andd other. only do that to the install.php in msf. improperly changing other files and folders in smf can be insecure
[11:39] <MeanEYE> rudenstam: did you sudo?
[11:39] <Note-book> Im trying to install my Ricoh webcam on my HP Dv6000 using these instructions: https://launchpad.net/~r5u87x-loader/+archive/ppa...........everything works fine but when I follow the last step it says: cd: 78: can't cd to r5u87x......I tried googling but no one else seems to have this problem :(
[11:39] <rudenstam> MeanEYE: I was root at the time
[11:40] <MeanEYE> rudenstam: what does service mysql status say?
[11:40] <MeanEYE> rudenstam: executing `service mysql status`
[11:40] <MeanEYE> :D
[11:40] <Dr_Willis> Note-book:  you are spelling everytyhing right?
[11:40] <Dr_Willis> Note-book:  sudo /usr/share/r5u87x/r5u87x-download-firmware.sh
[11:40] <rudenstam> MeanEYE: after I used service mysql start or now that it's running after I used init.d ?
[11:40] <MeanEYE> rudenstam: now
[11:41] <Dr_Willis> Note-book:  its possibel that directory has changed and teh script hasent been fixed. see whats in /usr/share/r*
[11:41] <rudenstam> MeanEYE: mysql start/running, process 17429
[11:41] <MeanEYE> rudenstam: try service mysql restart
[11:42] <rudenstam> MeanEYE: service mysql start worked now.. I stopped it with init.d first... perhaps I only have the problem the first time I start it after reboot.. hold on and I'll reboot my machine
[11:42] <genewitch> how do i make X11-forwarding refresh faster? 100mbit upstream should be able to handle chrome refreshes...
[11:42] <MeanEYE> rudenstam: ok
[11:43] <Dr_Willis> genewitch:  theres the -Y option i think.
[11:43] <Dr_Willis> but that is lower security.
[11:43] <genewitch> Dr_Willis: i saw a cps setting in a config file that said 50 10
[11:44] <Dr_Willis> never messed with it. I only do ssh on local lans normally.
[11:45] <rudenstam> MeanEYE: seems like it started when I did status
[11:45] <rudenstam> root@x120:/home/rs# service mysql status
[11:45] <rudenstam> mysql respawn/post-start, (post-start) process 2511
[11:46] <MeanEYE> rudenstam: great :D
[11:46] <rudenstam> should status start it ?
[11:46] <MeanEYE> no
[11:46] <MeanEYE> that's why it's called status :D
[11:47] <rudenstam> then I'm still equally confused
[11:47] <iwo> hey, i have a problem watching youtube videos. most videos only play for a second of two then my pc locks up (10.04), screen goes black and audio is stuck in a repeating 1 second loop...
[11:47] <MeanEYE> rudenstam: with what?
[11:47] <iwo> this happens in firefox and chrome
[11:47] <rudenstam> my mysql data dir is on an encrypted partition... so it can't possibly start during bootup
[11:47] <sometux> hi guys, looking for a benchmark tool for graphics cards on linux, any suggestions?
[11:47] <rudenstam> but when I run status it seems to be post-start already ?
[11:47] <Dr_Willis> Youtube can do HTML 5 video instead of Flash iwo . if you setup google chrome and youtube to do html5 by defalt
[11:48] <Dr_Willis> sometux:  there are some benchmark suites out there. I forget their names.
[11:48] <yuzodo> iwo, http://youtube.com/html5
[11:48] <MeanEYE> rudenstam: hm, you should check if you can actually access data
[11:48] <iwo> this has only started happening in the last week or two - it seems like i have received an update that has messed some codec binaries or something
[11:48] <Dr_Willis> flash dosent use codecs as far as i know.
[11:48] <rudenstam> MeanEYE: I could
[11:48] <iwo> Dr_Willis: nice idea, hadn't thought of that :D
[11:48] <Dr_Willis> there have been flash updates this last few weeks.
[11:48] <iwo> thx yuzodo
[11:48] <yuzodo> yw iwo
[11:49] <rudenstam> oh well.. it's started.. I'm okay with that..
[11:49] <yuzodo> also see my PM iwo
[11:49] <rudenstam> I'll come back if I experience trouble in future... cheers MeanEYE
[11:49] <MeanEYE> rudenstam: have fun!
[11:50] <user82> hi. does someone know a tool to create a bootable ubuntu on usb. (without the "install" and "test it" menu from the installation disc)
[11:51] <phet> Hi
[11:51] <phet> I tried to boot my macbook with ubuntu dvd, now I cannot boot anything
[11:52] <nope> usually a good idea to look at howtos
[11:52] <nope> especiall with mac`s, as they use efi and not bios
[11:52] <bullgard> Maverick produces in irregular times an event sound. How can I determine what program produces this event sound?
[11:52] <Dr_Willis> user82:  You can do a normal /full install to a flash drive. it will work exactly like a Hard drive install.
[11:52] <phet> nope: I have refit installed
[11:52] <Dr_Willis> user82:  or if you use a live-cd setup - I think you can give the boot manager some options and skip the install/test items.
[11:53] <user82> Dr_Willis, just boot the install cd and choose a usb stick as installation medium?
[11:53] <carrera> hi
[11:53] <Dr_Willis> user82:  yep. be sure that the bootloader installs to the flash drive. and not the hard drive.
[11:54] <Dr_Willis> there used to be a bug in the installer :) i think its been fixed.
[11:54] <user82> ok i see thanks
[11:54] <carrera> what's the best way to get the kernel source?
[11:54] <Dr_Willis> you will want a big flash drive also.. 4gb+  8+ even better
[11:54] <Dr_Willis> carrera:  kernel.org  perhaps?
[11:54] <Dr_Willis> !kernel
[11:55] <carrera> Dr_Willis, thanks, how about the Ubuntu rep?
[11:55] <rad_W> hello, i have a little problem
[11:55] <rad_W> i was wondering why update take so long
[11:55] <carrera> there's a pkg on the Ubuntu rep, but it has the ubuntu patches
[11:56] <user82> Dr_Willis,  UNetbootin did the trick, too. but without persistent mode
[11:56] <Dr_Willis> see the !kernel factoid. It knows all i know onkerneles..
[11:56] <jrib> carrera: and you don't want ubuntu patches? why?
[11:56] <rad_W> when i realize is ondemand power governor active, so its any way to change it
[11:56] <Dr_Willis> user82:  you can add that if you wanted.
[11:56] <rad_W> without interupting update process?
[11:56] <user82> just testint natty daily for like 10min not a big deal
[11:57] <Dr_Willis> user82:  You can set up grub2 on a flash to boot an iso file.. that way you just copy the new iso to th flash.. and its allready to try the next version
[11:57] <carrera> jrib, I'm sorry, I should have said it has the Ubuntu patches too
[11:58] <jrib> carrera: yes, but my questions are: and you don't want ubuntu patches? why?
[11:59] <AegisX> Has anyone ever removed a laptop screen? Was it difficult, and did you mess up / regret it?
[11:59] <jrib> AegisX: I had to replace one once... not very hard.  This is a question for ##hardware though, not ubuntu related
[12:00] <AegisX> jrib: Ah, thanks. Didn't know there was a channel such as that. Will ask there.
[12:00] <archangel_> helo everyone
[12:00] <eto> MeanEYE: thank you
[12:00] <MeanEYE> eto: everything works?
[12:00] <eto> reset did the trick
[12:00] <MeanEYE> eto: great! glad you fixed it
[12:00] <eto> one thing how can increase number of virtual desktopts?
[12:00] <archangel_> i have a question
[12:01] <AegisX> Apparently #hardware is invitation only :(
[12:01] <archangel_> can someone help a noob
[12:01] <eto> i can't find it anywhere
[12:01] <screwed2> hi
[12:01] <MeanEYE> eto: right click on workspace switched in the bottom right... preferences and then change the number
[12:01] <elHannos> Hi! I accidently deleted a file. I found out to which package the file belongs. However, if I reinstall this package with synaptic, the file isn't being rebuilt?! How can I rebuild the file?
[12:02] <MeanEYE> elHannos: which file from which package
[12:02] <screwed2> i have sound problems with an NVIDIA MCP79/7A HDMI sound card. it has an analog output as well and in pulseaudio i can select an "analog stereo" profile, but the sound would always come through hdmi. i have analog speakers plugged in, nothing comes out of them
[12:02] <Dr_Willis> AegisX:  proberly registered nicks only.
[12:02] <elHannos> MeanEYE /etc/xdg/menus/settings.menu from "gnome-menus"
[12:02] <archangel_> Hi i have added the accesibility icon to my top menu and cant seem to remove it how do i go about it? thanks
[12:02] <AegisX> Dr_Willis: How does one register a nickname?
[12:02] <screwed2> when i set up the box, i did some steps i didn't understand in order to get hdmi working, but now i want analog sound. i dont remember what i did, i followed a tutorial. but i may have deactivated analog sound output
[12:03] <screwed2> what can i do?
[12:03] <MeanEYE> elHannos: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure gnome-menus (bare in mind it might undo changes you made)
[12:03] <archangel_> thanks meaneye
[12:03] <user82> aw heck https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/675119
[12:03] <MeanEYE> archangel_: for what?
[12:04] <elHannos> MeanEYE: Hmm, no other way? As you said, the whole package gets reconfigured - but I just want the "factory" settings.menu file...
[12:04] <MeanEYE> let me check something
[12:04] <archangel_> oops
[12:04] <archangel_> thought you were talking to me
[12:05] <hazzarux> heey guys. is there any Python open-source project that I can get involved with? any suggestions?
[12:05] <archangel_> well i ran that command hope it doesnt mess anything up

[12:06] <elHannos> MeanEYE: Oh tanks! I am interested in the right command, though - for learning purpose ;D
[12:06] <jrib> AegisX: ##hardware, not #hardware.
[12:06] <Dr_Willis> archangel_:  how did you add it?
[12:07] <MeanEYE> elHannos: not sure what makes that file or if it comes with package
[12:07] <softcom> hey all
[12:07] <Dr_Willis> user82:  to many optins.. will confuse people.. :)
[12:07] <softcom> ^%^
[12:07] <AegisX> jrib: That doesn't work at all
[12:07] <Dr_Willis> archangel_:  dragged it from where?
[12:07] <Dr_Willis> archangel_:  if you right click in the proper place.. it proberly has a remove item.
[12:07] <jrib> AegisX: sure it does.  But you do need to be registered and identified to join the channel
[12:07] <Netw0rkBug> how can i stream radio on ubuntu , im loged in as root

[12:08] <AegisX> jrib: How do I register?
[12:08] <hazzarux> Abhijit: I don't think that's python :D
[12:08] <Abhijit> Netw0rkBug, try radio tray or kradioripper
[12:08] <jrib> Netw0rkBug: please don't use enter as punctuation.  You definitely should not be logged in as root to listen to the radio.
[12:08] <Note-book> anyone? :(
[12:08] <jrib> !register | AegisX
[12:08] <Abhijit> hazzarux, oh you want python only

[12:09] <Abhijit> Netw0rkBug, yes three of them i told you used to listen to radio only
[12:09] <michal_> ffdd
[12:09] <jrib> elHannos: you can use for example: apt-get -o DPkg::Options::="--force-confmiss" --reinstall install <packagename>          but see « man dpkg »

[12:13] <BaKeR> here typo
[12:14] <zadok78> Ok, i have got two harddrives, the first one (80 go) is the ubuntu one, it's mounted and working. The second one is recognized by ubuntu, in the disk manager i can see it, but when i want to mount id it says "It says " Error mounting, mout exited with error 1      |    helper failed with:mount: according to mtab, /dev/sdb is already mounted on / mout failed"
[12:14] <BaKeR> (fixing rescure reeboot to fix) can any one help me fix this
[12:14] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  clarify and when that happens.. Ive never seen or heard of a similer error message
[12:14] <Dr_Willis> zadok78:  try mounting it by hand. what filesystem is it?
[12:15] <[segfault]> BaKeR: yes, and make sure you spell it out exactly the way it is on the screen pls.
[12:15] <zadok78> Duh.../dev/sda ?
[12:15] <genewitch> is ssh -X affected more by latency or hardware speed?
[12:15] <BaKeR> it happens like a hour after i reboot. shut off then wait like a hour and reboot then i get that error
[12:15] <Dr_Willis> zadok78:  one normally mounts devices like /dev/sda1 not /dev/sda
[12:16] <vaasu> hi, im using lucid, in tty1 the text gets refreshed quite slowly, eg: man ls will load the pager from bottom to top quite slowly, is there a way to make it faster without changing font size?
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  but if you just reboot - it dosent happen?
[12:16] <BaKeR> but if i shut down and restart right now it wount do  that
[12:16] <BaKeR> yep
[12:16] <JuNeX> E: Unable to locate package simple-compizconfig-settings-manager
[12:16] <zadok78> "Périphérique: /dev/sda", ah it's a FAT drive
[12:16] <Cherish> Anybody know the difference between added INIT=/sbin/init at kernel boot command line or not ?
[12:16] <Cherish> If I don't add it the system will go to fsck from util-linux-ng after "Begin: Runing /scripts/init-bottom",If I added it, it will go to boot plymouth.
[12:16] <zadok78> Sorry, it's /sda1 !
[12:16] <JuNeX> E: Unable to locate package simple-compizconfig-settings-manager
[12:17] <zadok78> I didn't look the right place
[12:17] <BaKeR> fixing rescue reboot to fix
[12:17] <Dr_Willis> JuNeX:  use the apt-cache search  PATTERN to find the right names
[12:17] <MeanEYE> JuNeX: does it need to be simple? there's also compizconfig-settings-manager
[12:17] <BaKeR> thats spellt about right
[12:17] <zadok78> Dr_Willis You're right it's /des/sda1
[12:17] <BaKeR> i set sync to vblank in compiz
[12:17] <genewitch> what is plymouth?
[12:17] <wingnut2626> Good morning from Claymont, Delaware USA
[12:18] <jiltdil> if i am connects through ssh to other comp should i eble to play any  video file  of that computer?if yes how to open video
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> genewitch:  the program that gives the fancy Ubuntu .... loading animation at boot time
[12:18] <JuNeX> @meanEYE yeah i just wanna learn how to delete in terminal mode. i have 2 compiz manager installed
[12:18] <saud12> good after noon :)
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  ssh -X remotebox, and start a player..
[12:18] <JuNeX> i'll try the other command
[12:18] <BaKeR> thats what most likly causing it but out to fix it?
[12:18] <wingnut2626> hello!  I have a question about the GeMan X telnet client
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  you m ay be bette roff using 'sshfs' to mount the remote box and use a local player.
[12:18] <saud12> i opened new email ubnutu linux but i don't know how i can open
[12:19] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  i find it VERY VERY hard to belive that vsync or ANY setting in compiz is causing filesystem/drive type issues.
[12:19] <nk_doodwal> help to run java programs
[12:19] <saud12> can somebody help me plz ?
[12:19] <yuzodo> saud12, be more specific
[12:19] <saud12> ok
[12:19] <BaKeR> well ever sense i set it . thats whats ben going on
[12:19] <dalvikarmy> nk_doodwal: /j #java
[12:19] <saud12> where shell i go to open my email?
[12:19] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  thats not proof. and it dosent make any sence.
[12:20] <Dr_Willis> users settings shouldent be affecting the whole system
[12:20] <BaKeR> i alslo deslected detect refresh rate in compiz
[12:20] <BaKeR> and set my own
[12:20] <jiltdil> Dr_willis: suppose i an connected throug any comp via ssh and i found a video of some song then should i play it with my player or the player installed in that comp also what command to play video?
[12:20] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  i would boot a live cd. and fsck the disks  to verify they are ok.
[12:21] <wingnut2626> I am looking for a telnet client that i can actually use to download files from a BBs
[12:21] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  theres dozens of programs to play video.  you could copy it locally and play it. or use sshfs to play it from a local player.   running a remote player may be rather flakey.
[12:21] <BaKeR> why not fsck through ubuntu recovery?
[12:21] <coz_> BaKeR,   out of curiosity   in termal    df -l
[12:21] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  go ahead and try. I always use a minimal rescue live cd.
[12:21] <BaKeR> what that code do?
[12:21] <jiltdil> Dr_willis:thanx
[12:22] <coz_> BaKeR,  it will let you see the amount of hard drive useage
[12:22] <yuzodo> how can i edit the ambiance theme via text?
[12:22] <yuzodo> like using gedit
[12:22] <BaKeR> why not check through system monitor?
[12:22] <coz_> yuzodo,  oo you would have to open it's  gtkrc file
[12:22] <yuzodo> coz_, np
[12:23] <yuzodo> coz_, I want to change a default color, but make it save
[12:23] <jiltdil> Dr_willis: is there any way to copy the content of that comp and paste it to mine via ssh?
[12:23] <MeanEYE> yuzodo: edit parameters? gksu gedit /usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-2.0/gtkrc
[12:23] <BaKeR> i got a old ide hard drive 160 split with partion master on windows
[12:23] <yuzodo> thx MeanEYE
[12:23] <genewitch> oh man forwarded chrome is SO SLOW :-(
[12:23] <MeanEYE> yuzodo: you can do that by going to Appearance and clicking customize
[12:23] <BaKeR> waiting for my sata and power adater to show
[12:23] <coz_> yuzodo,  default colour for which part?  you can go into  system/preferences/ appearance and the colors tab to make some changes
[12:23] <yuzodo> MeanEYE, yeah but I wanna make it save
[12:24] <yuzodo> coz_, see above xD
[12:24] <coz_> yuzodo,  well that should save it automatically
[12:24] <BaKeR> 57 gb left for ubunter from the 65 gb i gave it
[12:24] <MeanEYE> yuzodo: you mean like so you can copy it?
[12:24] <BaKeR> why would that have anything to do with it
[12:24] <iwo> i'm still having problems with youtube crashing my system... switching to html5 mode doesn't affect all videos :\
[12:24] <yuzodo> I wanna change the default Ambiance and have it saved as Ambiance
[12:24] <yuzodo> so that when I select Ambiance it's my customized version
[12:25] <yuzodo> anyways, MeanEYE provided me with the command, thanks all
[12:25] <coz_> guys  just to make thingks less  "crazy" in here ,,, if you type the first 2 or 3  letters of the person's name you are speaking to,,, then  hit the tab key to complete their name... they will be alerted  and the conversations will be much easier to follow
[12:25] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  sshfs, or scp.
[12:25] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  gnome has a connect to server... also
[12:25] <iwo> can anyone think of a good way to diagnose the fault?? i can't find anything of insterest in /var/log/
[12:26] <yuzodo> yeah I know, I'm just lazy coz_ :D
[12:26] <Crush_> ok I realise this is probably the most n00b question in the history of this channel, but does anyone have any idea how to edit video tags (in the properties field using nautilus)
[12:26] <BaKeR> well thanks for the try
[12:26] <jiltdil> Dr_willis: is sshfs and scp commands are same like ssh
[12:26] <Dr_Willis> they use ssh.. yes.
[12:26] <BaKeR> cause damn it shure sucks trying to fix it then wait a hour to see if i fixed it.
[12:27] <coz_> Crush_,   I do not off hand... I know there are applications / uitlities for this or even maybe a nauitlus script
[12:27] <yuzodo> ugh dang, coz_ and MeanEYE, would you mind telling me what the value for the selection color is? (orange)
[12:27] <BaKeR> no fun ubuntu it top linux but shure hell to get running smooth
[12:27] <Dr_Willis> ive 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_Willis> but fitureing out what hardware.. may be the trick.
[12:28] <iwo> is 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 video
[12:28] <yuzodo> coz_, 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 :D
[12:28] <Dr_Willis> Crush_:  i think some of the mp3 tools can do video also.
[12:28] <JuNeX> Thank you guys!
[12:28] <genewitch> natty is 11.04, right?
[12:28] <genewitch> or is it 10.10
[12:29] <coz_> yuzodo,  ah not sure I havent looked in there but it may be a hex number in which case it would be    #EB7545
[12:29] <BaKeR> why would it be caused by hardware? the only thing i did was set sync to vblank and uncheck detect refresh rate
[12:29] <yuzodo> ok coz_, and is there also a value to make the borders 0px?
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  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.
[12:30] <yuzodo> actually nvm, I'm just changing it via the Appearance prefs
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  video settings should not  be affecting the filesystem..  My 'logic' is a bit more sound.
[12:30] <BaKeR> well for shure its nothing to do with heat ishues
[12:30] <BaKeR> i can even check in the bios
[12:30] <yuzodo> closed the file without saving any changes
[12:31] <eto> thanks all for help
[12:31] <BaKeR> windows runs fine
[12:31] <phoenixsampras> Suspend doesnt work!
[12:31] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  I have seen bugs in beta where teh filesystem clean 'timestamp' dont get set right. that forces a fsck every boot..  ive also seen bugs where it gets stuck in recvery mode.
[12:31] <coz_> Crush_,   I read somewhere that gtkpos,, after syncronizing,, recognized the video as a song and you can edit tags that way  but in all honesty I am not sure... you may want to google      linux  editing video tags
[12:31] <Guest6575> wen is ubutu 11.04 getin release
[12:31] <manoj> anyone know a software for netmeeting
[12:31] <Dr_Willis> Guest6575:  11.04 is the version And the date...
[12:31] <Dr_Willis> 2011, 4th month.
[12:32] <jiltdil> how to acess window through linux as we use ssh for linux?
[12:32] <coz_> yuzodo,  I am not sure,, I would guess that the borders are mentioned in some form in the gtkrc  but you may have to ferret through the code...
[12:32] <Dr_Willis> jiltdil:  samba lets you get to windows 'shares'
[12:32] <BaKeR> somesort of reset bug my might be it
[12:32] <yuzodo> coz_, yeah, tyvm :)
[12:32] <Crush_> coz_ did you mean gtkpos?
[12:32] <Crush_> or gtkpod?
[12:33] <BaKeR> but the bug is activated from compiz vblank/ uncheck detect refresh rate
[12:33] <coz_> yuzodo,  there are very few "how to" concerning  gtk themeing  so this is kind of a hit / miss situation
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  but if it powers off for 10 sec.. its  gone through the same shutdown process as if it was off for an hr.. so somthing dosent make sence there either.
[12:33] <jiltdil> Dr_willis:thanx should it work like ssh as i am now using ssh and slowly being familiar with it
[12:33] <coz_> Crush_,   no I think it was  gtkpod
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  add a new user.. see it causes issues with them.
[12:33] <BaKeR> can run smooth without vblank set
[12:33] <yuzodo> coz_, one weird thing though... I changed the color via the normal way and though only the color changed, the font on the button's preview looks different
[12:33] <BaKeR> cant run.. my bad
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  you mean to say you Uncheck vblank and it no longer happens?
[12:34] <manoj> hi... Please tell me a software like netmeeting
[12:34] <BaKeR> dr willis my minds boggled about it to
[12:34] <Mumrah> hi
[12:34] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  what if you never even login as a user...
[12:34] <BaKeR> no i checked vblank and unchecked detect refresh rate
[12:34] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  what if you dont even run compiz at all.. You should proberly patebin exactly whats going on. to get all the points clear.
[12:35] <coz_> Crush_,   http://techcityinc.com/2009/02/04/top-10-free-video-editors-for-ubuntu-linux/  also look into  man ffmpeg
[12:35] <p_res> manoj: What feature of Netmeeting do you want?
[12:35] <BaKeR> so just set reg settings in apprence?
[12:35] <BaKeR> effects
[12:35] <phoenixsampras> help! suspend and hibernation doesnt work!
[12:36] <BaKeR> when i do get the fixing rescue reboot to fix i reboot then i can log in
[12:37] <p_res> phoenixsampras: I had the same issue for years and realized it was my bios settings.
[12:37] <Mumrah> I need to find a way to stop my panels from _occasionally_ disappearing, when I set their property to "autohide". This doesn't always happen, and I can fix it by creating a new panel, overlapping the old one, which forces the old one into view and allows me to access its properties to turn off autohide... but this is convoluted and should not be necessary.
[12:37] <Note-book> For the life of it, I can't get my mic to work. It's a built-in mic on a HP DV6000.
[12:37] <phoenixsampras> p_res: what did you do with your bios plz?
[12:37] <Mumrah> I recently installed Docky & Compiz, but the panels problem has exhibited before this too, on another of my Ubuntu 10.10 installs.
[12:38] <Repnina_> hi
[12:38] <p_res> It was the suspend settings that were set to STR. When I changed it to STP, it worked perfect.
[12:38] <Mumrah> occasionally I would start ubuntu and no panels would display (forcing me to attempt to logout and back in again)
[12:38] <iwo> hmm, tried redirecting sysout and syserr from chrome during youtube crash, all i get is one message: 'Invalid source argument type'
[12:38] <Note-book> !ping
[12:39] <BaKeR> mumrah ubuntu is very bugy from my experince
[12:39] <BaKeR> cant even get a descent looking boot up slpash
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  and how much experience is that exactly?
[12:40] <BaKeR> a week or two
[12:40] <Dr_Willis> Nvidia drivers dont like to play nice with Plymouth.. not really Ubuntus fault.
[12:40] <Dr_Willis> I just disable plymouth
[12:40] <Mumrah> BaKeR, it's been quite stable and reliable for me. I use both Ubuntu and Debian and I find them both quite solid.
[12:40] <Mumrah> there must be more to this panel problem.
[12:40] <Dr_Willis> when i get 5+mo uptimes.... or  ugly boot screens.. ill take the uptime.
[12:40] <BaKeR> disable plymouth to get a text crud boot
[12:41] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR: omg.. text.. the Humanity of it all!
[12:41] <Dr_Willis> :)
[12:41] <Crush_> heh thanks for the aid coz_ still no closer to doing it yet, but I'll keep at it
[12:41] <dimmortal> Mumrah: occasionally I would start ubuntu and no panels would display (forcing me to attempt to logout and back in again) <<< I've only gotten that with natty
[12:41] <BaKeR> whats the best stable version for 64 bit?
[12:41] <Dr_Willis> ive had very few issues with ubuntu 64bit on my 6 computers
[12:42] <BaKeR> ok my bad dr willis i thought your wher talking about the splash
[12:42] <Dr_Willis> Plymouth is what does the Fancy Ubuntu Anumation. it has replaced Usplash, and othe other splash things
[12:43] <BaKeR> what does the boot up look like without plymouth
[12:43] <Dr_Willis> grub menus -> plymouth -> login screebn.
[12:43] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  just nice clean text messages about whats its doing and any errors scrolling by..
[12:43] <Mumrah> dimmortal, I get that problem quite often on one of my installs (it's on a quadcore machine, with an onboard intel graphics chip)
[12:43] <Dr_Willis> Classic. :)
[12:43] <BaKeR> yeah crud like when im shuting down
[12:43] <BaKeR> really
[12:43] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  in fact those messages MAY be giving you a clue as to the problems.. if you read themn.
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> its possible the shut down messages may be saying somtng.
[12:44] <BaKeR> yeah when i shut down i get unmouting weak filesystems
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> now THATS a clue...
[12:44] <BaKeR> yes ive done lots of research
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> Not sure what it means.. but it sounds imporntant..
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> :)
[12:44] <BaKeR> no fixes
[12:45] <Dr_Willis> but if its unmounting it succesuffly then that shouldent be an issue
[12:45] <ceo> thanks am not ban :)
[12:45] <ceo> hallo all
[12:45] <BaKeR> no to importint if i can get the original shutdown splash by moding the grub
[12:45] <dimmortal> Mumrah:  my laptop with a an intel gpu never does that with maverick... only natty
[12:46] <BaKeR> file with my own res
[12:46] <ceo> am need help, am need to clear my ssh history for setting my wlan (fonera)
[12:46] <ceo> any body can help
[12:46] <ceo> clear
[12:46] <BaKeR> but messes up the boot
[12:46] <jimcooncat> Baker, check System ->Administration->Disk Utility ->your hard drive ->SMART data and see if you're having hard drive failure
[12:46] <BaKeR> a giant maze
[12:46] <ceo> !help
[12:46] <BaKeR> done that
[12:46] <Mumrah> dimmortal, well don't know what to say, it's what happens on that install. Not that it bothers me too much.
[12:46] <dalvikarmy> !please | ceo
[12:46] <iocor> I've had desktop effects since I installed ubuntu, but now for some reason they are disabled and it keeps telling me they can't be re-enabled. I've got some kind of integrated intel graphics on this machine
[12:46] <BaKeR> sucks im really about out of options
[12:46] <BaKeR> one sec double check
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> Smart data  is not always that smart.. I got a HD under windows that is giving BIG issues.. but smart says its ok.
[12:47] <oCean> ceo: explain better/detailed what you want
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> it just fails the tests from the HD makers tools
[12:47] <Pindrusinda> :( help me
[12:47] <oCean> Pindrusinda: better ask a question first
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> Hard drives truely seem to be the weakest link these days
[12:48] <BaKeR> mount point not mounted
[12:48] <phoenixsampras> p_res: what did you do with your bios plz?
[12:48] <phoenixsampras> is Mark Shuttleworh in here?
[12:48] <BaKeR> not shure if thats there is normal
[12:48] <Pindrusinda> guys..i absolutlly don't know, how to join my fave chanel on x-chat.. :/
[12:48] <jimcooncat> Dr_Willis, the difference between HD manufacturer's implementations are wide. I stick with Western Digital for just this reason.
[12:48] <^jude^> I am about to install 10.04 on a separate HDD in this machine, but I want to use the grub on the current 9.10 install. Am I right that I just need to do the install, boot into my normal 9.10 and do "grub-update" to add the new 10.04 install to the grub menu?
[12:48] <io> Pindrusinda: "/join #channel"
[12:49] <BaKeR> ?
[12:49] <v3ctor> i stick western digital in the trash where they belong </flame>
[12:49] <BaKeR> runing scan again
[12:49] <Pindrusinda> io: tryed..doesn't work :/
[12:49] <io> Pindrusinda: yes, it does. check your status window for an error message
[12:50] <BaKeR> running a 39 deggrees
[12:50] <io> Pindrusinda: possibly the channel is +r in which case it's blocking you as you're not identified to services
[12:50] <BaKeR> disc is healthy
[12:50] <jimcooncat> 's OK, v3ctor, I haven't done any recent research
[12:50] <Dr_Willis> jimcooncat:  its a WD that im jhaving the issues with right now. :)
[12:50] <iocor> http://dpaste.com/496322/ this continues to suggest my opengl is broken, does anyone know how I can get my intel chipset doing gl?
[12:50] <pnh> hi everybody ... I want to do Google summer of code project -2011 .. can any one tell me whether ubuntu is participating in this event? (like Debian,GNOME or KDE) If so ,please me regarding this... Thanks a lot !!!
[12:51] <dalvikarmy> !ot | pnh

[12:53] <BaKeR> could ya check
[12:53] <io> ^jude^: if nobody answered your question then either nobody knows the answer, or they're busy. try asking later
[12:53] <BaKeR> that would be cool
[12:53] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  does it say that about what exactly?

[12:54] <MeanEYE> ^jude^: during installation of new system, newer grub will be installed and it will detect other systems, including linux and windows and others
[12:55] <thenewsman> i got this error msg while installing ubunto 10.10 client version. " unable to find medium containing a live file system" plz help me to solve it. i am using vmware to install this ubunto
[12:55] <BaKeR> does ubuntu hate ata hard drives?
[12:55] <^jude^> MeanEYE: I specifically don't want that - I want to use the grub2 install I already have - 10.04 is for testing only and may not stay
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  my mounted ones show mounted.. not sure what you are asking about.
[12:55] <thenewsman> any supporter in here ?
[12:55] <MeanEYE> ^jude^: hm, not sure how to do that then. maybe downloading alternate cd
[12:55] <coz_> BaKeR,  no it works fine with ata drives
[12:56] <Dr_Willis> thenewsman:  you are booting an iso file? or a real cd?
[12:56] <thenewsman> iso file which i got from the web
[12:56] <^jude^> MeanEYE: I know I can tell the installer not to touch the MBR, it's only the bit about adding it to the existing grub2 I'm a bit fuzzy on
[12:56] <BaKeR> you shure you looked in the right spot?
[12:56] <Dr_Willis> thenewsman:  you did verify its good via its md5sum?
[12:56] <thenewsman> i mounted it on power is
[12:57] <^jude^> MeanEYE: I guess I will just have to suck it and see :)
[12:57] <thenewsman> i did nothing Dr_Willis
[12:57] <BaKeR> Mount point:  not mounted
[12:57] <Dr_Willis> !md5 | thenewsman
[12:57] <thenewsman> all i did is i asked the vmware to install the ubunto
[12:57] <ymonir> hello , i have installed python-docky from synaptic - i expected to find it working - but its not - any help ?
[12:57] <BaKeR> just open up disc utility
[12:57] <MeanEYE> ^jude^: alternative installation cd will ask what to do with grub if I remember correctly
[12:57] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  my unmounted drives show unmounted.. the mounted ones show a mountpoint..  NTFS disks may show somnthing else.
[12:58] <JuNeX> hello how to change  the wallpaper thru terminal?
[12:58] <^jude^> MeanEYE: lovely - I shall grab a copy and use that instead then
[12:58] <Dr_Willis> thenewsman:  what OS are you running vmware on?
[12:58] <^jude^> MeanEYE: thanks for the tip
[12:58] <thenewsman> Dr_Willis win 7
[12:58] <BaKeR> it actually says mountu point:
[12:58] <MeanEYE> ^jude^: am not 100% ... be careful
[12:58] <phoenixsampras> help! suspend and hibernation doesnt work on laptops, what are the perfect setup on the bios to handle suspend and hibernation on the bios?
[12:58] <MeanEYE> ^jude^: maybe try installing in vbox first?
[12:58] <^jude^> MeanEYE: noted, ta
[12:59] <BaKeR> how could you not see or understand that
[12:59] <^jude^> MeanEYE: that's a bit pointless in this case - the new HDD is an SSD and I want to check out performance
[12:59] <ymonir> hello , i have installed python-docky from synaptic - i expected to find it working - but its not - any help ?
[12:59] <Yoinx> why not just get the normal docky ymonir?
[12:59] <BaKeR> open up disc utility wide open my scroll a little tell you see mount point
[12:59] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  and mine show a mountpoint for my Mounted disks... for the ones I dont have mounted it dosent.. I dont get whats to not undersand.
[12:59] <BaKeR> what does it say
[12:59] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  data disk -> /media/Data   and my OTHER disks i dont use dont say anything,.
[13:00] <ymonir> what is the reason  Yoinx?
[13:00] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  and this proves/shows what exactly?
[13:00] <MeanEYE> ^jude^: ok, just trying to play safe ;D
[13:00] <^jude^> MeanEYE: apprecietaed :)
[13:00] <Yoinx> https://launchpad.net/docky
[13:00] <BaKeR> on the main hard drive ubuntu is on?
[13:00] <Yoinx> I dunno, because that one actually works?
[13:01] <^jude^> MeanEYE: appreciated :) [wish I could type properly]
[13:01] <MeanEYE> ^jude^: my english is weird today as well
[13:01] <BaKeR> does prove nothing just a bit of help
[13:01] <dannyd> hi

[13:02] <dannyd> how can i control pausing and starting files from transmission client?
[13:02] <dannyd> from the command line
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> BaKeR:  if i select sdd2 and click on my / partition. it shows it mounted at /
[13:02] <BaKeR> root
[13:02] <BaKeR> mmm
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> same as the mount command says. :)
[13:03] <dannyd> to be used in a script
[13:03] <BaKeR> never mind had to click on the sucker
[13:03]  * ^jude^ is off to play with grub2
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> dannyd:  try looking at 'transmission --help' it may have command line options...

[13:11] <OerHeks> njin, upgrade bios should be done fram the bios itself, loading the rom from diskette
[13:12] <Yoinx> azalia, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275
[13:12] <Yoinx> Grub2 doesn't do the menus quite like the old grub.

[13:17] <stiannes> Is there a channel for Ubuntu 11.04?
[13:17] <thenewsman> plz help me guys

[13:17] <th0r> stiannes: ubuntu+1
[13:17] <stiannes> th0r: thx
[13:17] <thenewsman> i am finding problems in isntalling ubunto on vmware.
[13:17] <njin> OerHeks: eh, is an old biuos version installed and don't support this feature, i can just boot a freedos oem floppy and then install the new bios, but i cnnot found thi freedos oem.
[13:18] <thenewsman> i am finding problems in isntalling ubunto on vmware.  "Unable to find a medium containing a live file system"
[13:18] <OerHeks> !freedos
[13:18] <thenewsman> !freedos
[13:18] <tirt> or, i will ask another question, can i provide the script a text area, and when the text is entered it calls the script with the entered argument
[13:18] <OerHeks> njin try freedos http://www.freedos.org/
[13:18] <th0r> tirt: there is a small program for that, but I don't recall the name at the moment
[13:19] <njin> on the freedos site I cannot find this bootable floppy version
[13:19] <tirt> i wish you did
[13:19] <jrib> th0r, tirt: probably thinking of zenity
[13:19] <luist> what a nice phrase for a business card?
[13:19] <th0r> tirt: see...it works every time <smile>
[13:19] <jrib> !ot | luist
[13:19] <tirt> zenity , now i am lookking
[13:20] <jrib> thenewsman: try #vmware
[13:20] <thenewsman> the vmware is not the problem
[13:20] <thenewsman> i installed older versions of ubunto and other linusex without problem
[13:20] <th0r> tirt: just a thought, why not make the term a required parameter passed to the script?
[13:20] <OerHeks> njin use the fdfullcd.iso wich is a live-cd http://www.freedos.org/freedos/files/
[13:20] <thenewsman> my problem is the ubunto 10.10
[13:21] <tirt> i am not very pro. on linux
[13:21] <tirt> just needed a proper dictionary
[13:21] <tirt> trying to handle it :D
[13:21] <njin> OerHens: ok i try this solution, thanks !
[13:22] <jrib> thenewsman: checksum your iso
[13:22] <thenewsman> why should i do that ?
[13:22] <jrib> thenewsman: to verify the file is not corrupted...
[13:22] <th0r> tirt: just a thought. you are going to have to call something, why not call a terminal and just type 'lookup <term>' or some such
[13:22] <jrib> !checksums | thenewsman
[13:22] <thenewsman> jrib i can re download it
[13:22] <jrib> !md5sums | thenewsman
[13:22] <tirt> that is what this program does already
[13:22] <tirt> it is uglyu
[13:23] <tirt> i want to open a box , or text input to enter search term
[13:23] <jrib> thenewsman: no, you want an iso with the proper checksum
[13:23] <tirt> but i think this zenity thing is the thing i am looking for
[13:23] <jrib> tirt: you've tried the existing dictionary programs by the way?
[13:24] <tirt> i love the longman
[13:24] <th0r> tirt: and there are plugins for firefox for that as well
[13:25] <tirt> himm
[13:25] <tirt> okey i handled it kinda
[13:25] <tirt> zenity is perfect tool
[13:25] <thenewsman> jrib do u think redownloading the file would help ?
[13:26] <jrib> thenewsman: well if you the checksum is not correct then you need to redownload the file until it is correct.  But just redownloading the file would not be helpful since you would still need to checksum the new file
[13:26] <thenewsman> i used the getright and i used it severly. perhaps that caused some problems
[13:27] <thenewsman> there is a problem
[13:27] <dalvikarmy> thenewsman: dont listen to jrib he is lying

[13:28] <thenewsman> is the server edition work ?

[13:57] <pr0ton> and see if you can hear it
[13:58] <pr0ton> just increase / decrease it
[13:58] <pr0ton> sometimes it is too soft
[13:58] <Guest39811> resno, i d rather avoid this one. i can identify a lot of connections, but not all of them.
[13:58] <ThinkT510> !enter | Pr0ton
[13:59] <Guest39811> resno, is there some kismet like program to sniff who is being connected? and could warn me?
[13:59] <resno> Guest39811: well, thats the ultimate solution... its unlikely someone hacked the wpa2 key
[13:59] <arminmarth> @SoftTimur - Check if PulseAudio is selected - and maybe add the microphone booster (>100%) in the Sound Preferences
[13:59] <royale1223> jribas_: are you jrib?
[14:00] <Guest39811> resno, actually, i got an internet connection based on this criteria: the router's capability of using wpa2 encryption... as it s been dodgy lately, ... even if I rebooted the router, ...
[14:00] <royale1223> i cant execute files from /home partition. Why?
[14:00] <rzx237> Guest39811: kismet is on ubuntu repository
[14:01] <Guest39811> royale1223, check ls -l in a terminal: the permissions should be x
[14:01] <tomoh> why nginx in ubuntu 10.10 is so old? (0.7.67) while we have version 0.9.5 (2011-02-21)?
[14:01] <Guest39811> royale1223, chmod +x the file you want to execute...
[14:01] <llutz_> royale1223: mount|grep home           says what?
[14:01] <resno> tomoh: you can install it yourself... ubuntu tests apps before they come through. its quite common.
[14:01] <pr0ton> anybody can help me?
[14:01] <SoftTimur> arminmarth: I do not see PulseAudio is selected
[14:02] <pr0ton> i restarted and it still shows, Networking is disabled
[14:02] <SoftTimur> arminmarth: actually I do not see PulseAudio
[14:02] <tomoh> resno: i don't wan't to. i'd rather stick with ubuntu packages.
[14:02] <MeanEYE> tomoh: during ubuntu development cycle there's something called debian freze. that's the moment when they decide to stop pulling from debian repositories in order to keep stability. so if you want a newer version there's probably ppa you can use
[14:02] <royale1223> llutz_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/579763/
[14:02] <Guest39811> royale1223, solved?
[14:03] <royale1223> Guest39811: tried that
[14:03] <royale1223> Guest39811: nope
[14:03] <llutz_> royale1223: why do you mount it noexec if you want to exec things from it?
[14:03] <Guest39811> rzx237, i fear my old wifi chipset working under ndiswrapper won t accept the monitor mode...
[14:03] <llutz_> royale1223: sudo mount -o remount,exec /home
[14:03] <pr0ton> ok. i fixed it... you've to edit this file /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state
[14:03] <Guest39811> royale1223, listen to llutz :)
[14:03] <royale1223> llutz_: thanks, lemme try that
[14:04] <pr0ton> and change NetworkingEnabled=false to NetworkingEnabled=true
[14:04] <llutz_> royale1223: change /etc/fstab for a persistand solution
[14:04] <Guest39811> royale1223, did you add these options by yourself?
[14:04] <royale1223> llutz_: okay
[14:04] <llutz_> royale1223: hint: if you get tipps from somewhere, check first what they do and what that means
[14:04] <tomoh> MeanEYE: right, i know what are you talking about. thanks, completely forgot about that
[14:05] <MeanEYE> tomoh: no problem.
[14:06] <royale1223> llutz_: not solved yet. my fstab http://paste.ubuntu.com/579765/
[14:06] <royale1223> Guest39811: nope, I didnt
[14:07] <Yoinx> what are you trying to do royale?
[14:07] <ThinkT510> royale1223: you are remounting your home as ro (read only)
[14:07] <royale1223> i cant execute files from /home partition. Why?
[14:07] <SoftTimur> anyone could tell me why I do not see "PulseAudio" is not in "Sound Preferences -> Input"?
[14:07] <Guest39811> royale1223, so these mount options have been put by the system install.
[14:07] <ruan> !pulse
[14:08] <Guest39811> royale1223, paste your ls -l file rights
[14:08] <llutz_> ThinkT510: he doesn't
[14:08] <tomoh> royale1223: do 'cat /etc/fstab' and check is there a 'noexec' attribute for your /home partition
[14:08] <SoftTimur> ubottu: I have already installed it I think...
[14:08] <tomoh> royale1223: without quotes of course
[14:08] <Guest39811> SoftTimur, :)
[14:08] <ruan> SoftTimur: its more like a driver than an input device
[14:09] <marina> i can see wifi, but cannot connect. what should i do?
[14:09] <ruan> SoftTimur: what do you want to record from?
[14:09] <SoftTimur> skype, I just try to use skype
[14:09] <royale1223> ThinkT510: Can you sujjest the line i should use in fstab?
[14:09] <royale1223> ThinkT510: Can you sujjest the line i should use in fstab?
[14:09] <ruan> SoftTimur: microphone?
[14:09] <llutz_> royale1223:  "UUID=.... /home ext4 defaults 0 0 "
[14:10] <SoftTimur> ruan: yes
[14:10] <Yoinx> Royale, you may wanna read up... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?&t=283131
[14:10] <ThinkT510> royale1223: what llutz_ said
[14:10] <ruan> SoftTimur: have you played around with Connectors?
[14:11] <Guest39811> royale1223, take out the options and put defaults on it. then you ll add one by one the options.
[14:11] <SoftTimur> ruan: it is not that problem...
[14:11] <ruan> SoftTimur: what is the probleM?
[14:11] <SoftTimur> ruan: I do not know...
[14:11] <royale1233> so how should i edit it Guest39811 , ThinkT510 ?
[14:12] <Guest39811> royale1223, sudo gedit /etc/fstab and leave only defaults
[14:12] <MeanEYE> Guest39811: that's gksu instead of sudo
[14:12] <Guest39811> ,errors=remount-ro,users,user_xattr         < TAKE THIS OFF
[14:12] <ThinkT510> royale1223: llutz_ just showed you the line above
[14:12] <ruan> yeah comment it with #
[14:12] <Yoinx>   /dev/sda4     /home    ext4    defaults 0  0     < would be easiest so you dont have to find the uuid.
[14:12] <ruan> #,errors=remount-ro,users,user,xattr
[14:13] <Guest39811> agree with Yoinx
[14:13] <ruan> i just typed that.. why
[14:13] <ruan> why dont i use copy and paste >_<
[14:13] <Guest39811> royale1223, you must know that if you add an option to the mounts, it may alter the other ones. see man page for details
[14:14] <Guest39811> MEanEYE, don t understand. sudo gedit...   what is gksu?
[14:14] <ruan> gksudo
[14:14] <ruan> man gksudo
[14:14] <Guest39811>        gksu - GTK+ frontend for su and sudo
[14:14] <Guest39811> ok sorry
[14:14] <ThinkT510> !gksudo | Guest39811
[14:14] <Yoinx> I'm not even sure what "users,user_xattr" is doing in that mount line... I cant find them as valid options anywhere.
[14:14] <MeanEYE> Guest39811: 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 display
[14:14] <llutz_> Yoinx: man mount
[14:14] <Guest39811> ThinkT510, MeanEYE, i m used to sudo vi... so... :)
[14:15] <mrdeb> Guest39811: gksu is typically used to launch graphical (vs terminal) apps with root privilages.
[14:15] <MeanEYE> Guest39811: np :D just saying :D
[14:15] <llutz_> "users" in mount options for /home is nonsense, nobody wants users being able to umount /home
[14:15] <jimbibob> HI!, just tried to upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10, but when i restart, i get the GNU GRUB command line interface and some info telling me 'Minimal BASH-like editing is supported. any help?
[14:15] <Guest39811> ok thanks guys. true, sometimes, root can t open display so gedit won t work... i used ano, pico, vim...
[14:16] <Yoinx> ahh, must've missed them last time llutz
[14:17] <MeanEYE> Guest62314: that can be done with export DISPLA=:0 or something like that followed by the command but gksu and gksudo are easier
[14:19] <det> MeanEYE, I think you mean Guest39811 :)
[14:19] <MeanEYE> det: sorry :D

[14:30] <ruan> hi was removed
[14:30] <resno> was it really?
[14:30] <ruan> yeah
[14:30] <resno> :(
[14:30] <bizhengtian> I've never used ubuntu.
[14:30] <MeanEYE> bizhengtian: welcome then :) how may we help you ?
[14:30] <wingnut2626> !!!! WHY!!!
[14:30] <ruan> wingnut2626: ?
[14:30] <bizhengtian> And can I speak Chinese?

[14:31] <mneptok> !zh | bizhengtian
[14:31] <ruan> bizhengtian: there is a chinese support channel for that
[14:31] <bizhengtian> ?
[14:31] <ruan> this is the english channel.
[14:31] <bizhengtian> I don't understand.
[14:31] <bizhengtian> ...
[14:31] <bizhengtian> I got it.
[14:31] <System_Default_1> Rendering issues.
[14:32] <Matisse> MeanEYE, is that a english language joke?
[14:32] <bizhengtian> ?
[14:32] <MeanEYE> Matisse: no, command is called `top`... if will give you the list of processes
[14:33] <mneptok> MeanEYE: and will tell you nothing about monitors
[14:33] <MeanEYE> mneptok: you said process monitor?
[14:33] <MeanEYE> ooh, sorry misunderstood you
[14:33] <bizhengtian> as a freshman, I'm thinking about what I can do by using ubuntu.
[14:34] <ruan> there's system monitor(gui) and top(cli)
[14:34] <mneptok> MeanEYE: and it's 2011. use htop. ;)
[14:34] <MeanEYE> mneptok: really, damn :D
[14:34] <MeanEYE> am way behind you guys
[14:34] <MeanEYE> gah, htop is not installed by default
[14:34] <MeanEYE> :D
[14:35] <ruan> well, it's just one sudo apt-get install away :P
[14:35] <MeanEYE> ruan: true, but why would I when top does the job and I rarely use it
[14:35] <ThinkT510> bizhengtian: anything you want to use it for specifically?
[14:35] <genewitch> what is htop, i use top and then press x, z, b.
[14:35] <MeanEYE> ruan: what's the difference anyway
[14:35] <Matisse> is there a way to get informations about my CRT with a shell command?
[14:35] <ruan> MeanEYE: i guess htop is more advanced
[14:35] <ruan> !info htop
[14:35] <MeanEYE> oh, I can't afford 212kb ;P

[14:37] <Matisse> llutz, thx
[14:37] <Matisse> :)
[14:38] <llutz_> bizhengtian: why do you install an OS first and ask THEN what you can do with it?
[14:38] <MeanEYE> bizhengtian: ok, ask what you want to know and I'll try to help
[14:38] <bizhengtian> I wanna try something new.
[14:38] <genewitch> do i use dpkg to install a .deb, or aptitude
[14:38] <MeanEYE> llutz_: for the sake of experimenting?
[14:38] <Yoinx> dpkg
[14:39] <llutz_> MeanEYE: wihtout a clue what to do? lol
[14:39] <ThinkT510> llutz_: curiosity is a powerful motivating factor, i came into linux without knowing what i wanted it for
[14:39] <MeanEYE> llutz_: that's not the point... wandering into unknown is how things get discovered, always always question everything
[14:39] <mrdeb> how much does the official ubuntu cd cost
[14:40] <bizhengtian> maybe I should try something by myself first.
[14:40] <MeanEYE> bizhengtian: contact me in private if you wish
[14:40] <Yoinx> Yeah, I've always kinda wondered about that... Everything's discovered somehow... But, take alcohol for instance... Someone had to let something sit and ferment... then be like "Hmm, I wonder what this tastes like?"
[14:40] <MeanEYE> bizhengtian: I'll give you some pointers
[14:40] <bizhengtian> thank you.
[14:40] <bizhengtian> see U
[14:41] <genewitch> how do i fix this error: Xlib:  extension "MIT-SHM" missing on display "localhost:12.0".
[14:41] <Yoinx> mrdeb http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/cds
[14:41] <MeanEYE> Yoinx: that's how world works. If there were no explorers we wouldnt move much :D
[14:41] <genewitch> ^when i am running x forwarding
[14:41] <resno> im having an issue where youtube videos look pink
[14:42] <Yoinx> Yeah MeanEYE , my point though... Is that not all explorers pull through. Sometimes, when you let something sit long enough to ferment... you don't end up with alcohol, you just end up with things like arsenic. Not all exploration ends well for the explorer.
[14:42] <MeanEYE> Yoinx: true that, but the point in life is not to never fall down, but rather how fast you get up. If we get scared of failing nothing will be done ever. Anyway this is OT :)
[14:43] <Yoinx> Yeah it is.
[14:43] <Guest94669> ubuntu rlz
[14:43] <MeanEYE> Guest94669: :D glad you realized it :D
[14:45] <Osmodivs> In a Linux Terminal, how do you move thru the directories? Like, if I am in /usr/loca/cuda/bin and I want to move to /usr/loca, I kind of remember than in MS-DOS you used cd.. or cd/ but this doesent work here
[14:45] <Fuchs> cd ..
[14:45] <llutz_> os cd /path
[14:45] <Fuchs> with a space before the ..
[14:45] <llutz_> Osmodivs: cd /path
[14:45] <genewitch> Osmodivs: cd ../.. for your example
[14:46] <genewitch> Osmodivs: . means "HERE" and .. means "PARENT"
[14:46] <Osmodivs> Ah, cd ../ works nice
[14:46] <Yoinx> Ms Dos "cd and dir" linux "cd and ls"
[14:46] <Yoinx> for the comparison
[14:46] <ruan> Osmodivs: and you can use tab as autocomplete
[14:46] <ruan> Osmodivs: but remember that folders are case-sensitive
[14:46] <Osmodivs> ruan yeah
[14:47] <genewitch> Osmodivs: cd .. will work for 1 dir up, no slash needed. but say you have /home/moo/dir1/thing1/ and you're in /home/moo/dir2 you can type cd ../dir1/thing1/
[14:47] <Yoinx> I hate that everything's case sensitive.
[14:47] <Yoinx> It gets so annoying sometimes
[14:47] <MeanEYE> Osmodivs: cd is a command in linux (in difference from winblows) so you need to put a space behind it
[14:47] <mksysb> Has anyone booted 10.10 CD iso in vmware ESX?  I can't get it to boot
[14:47] <MeanEYE> Yoinx: that's actually a good thing if you ask me but yeah sometimes it gets tricky
[14:47] <luki1025> hi everyone
[14:48] <ruan> mksysb: i've installed 10.10 in vmware before
[14:48] <Osmodivs> Now I know, thx
[14:48] <jimbibob1> i upgraded to 10.10 from 10.04 but am given a command line style interface, any way to get to ubuntu from here?
[14:48] <Yoinx> I've used it in virtualbox mksysb and it worked fine... I can't imagine it would be much different in VMware
[14:48] <ruan> jimbibob1: startx
[14:48] <aeon-ltd> jimbibob1: startx
[14:48] <genewitch> Yoinx: what's mksysb
[14:48] <MeanEYE> Yoinx: that's why everything is mostly lower case... but I'd rather have case sensitive fs so I can exactly name files I want them to be :D
[14:49] <Yoinx> Yeah MeanEye... I understand the "why" of the case-sensitivity. it just gets annoying when you accidentally hit shift sometimes. :p
[14:49] <Yoinx> and "mksysb" was the guy asking the question
[14:49] <genewitch> pull the key off
[14:49] <ruan> no, more like if you forget to press shift
[14:49] <Yoinx> Yeah, or that ruan
[14:49] <luki1025> how can I return to the upper directory using the cd/.. comand?
[14:49] <mksysb> Yoinx: More annoying then when you hit 'a' instead of 's' ?
[14:49] <MeanEYE> Yoinx: hm, true... :) though software should be able to handle that nicely, I mean software can be built to handle that without troubling the user
[14:49] <suprengr> Is there a graphical front-end for KVM?
[14:50] <Yoinx> mksysb, the typo from a/s doesnt really matter so much, if it's not the first 2 or 3 letters since I auto-complete anyway
[14:50] <genewitch> i love how chrome over X-forwarding is so slow it's unusable but the ads still load first. Anyone have any other tips for speeding it up? I have blowfish as the cipher and compression is on
[14:50] <jimbibob1> ruan: startx gives me 'unknown command'
[14:50] <mksysb> Has anyone booted the Ubuntu 10.10 iso on vmware recently?  Seriously, I try to boot it and it doesn't work.  I switch to clonezilla or anything else that should be bootable and it works.
[14:50] <ruan> jimbibob1: strange
[14:50] <genewitch> jimbibob1: 10.10 ubuntu? not kubuntu?
[14:51] <aeon-ltd> jimbibob1: try 'xinit'
[14:51] <MeanEYE> genewitch: did you try writing an issue at code.google.com/p/chromium?
[14:51] <mrdeb> what happens when a system shuts off power while ubuntu is running. is there corruption?
[14:51] <genewitch> gnome-session is the standard
[14:51] <neil_d> i 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 md2
[14:51] <genewitch> MeanEYE: it's not an issue with chrome it's an issue with x forwarding.
[14:51] <MeanEYE> genewitch: :/ ok
[14:51] <Yoinx> Genewitch, I dont use xforwarding... but why would you really need to surf the web over it?
[14:51] <bastidrazor> mrdeb: it can happen but unlikely. you'll probably have fsck do a check on boot.
[14:52] <Yoinx> just get the url for whatever you're trying to grab, and wget it over ssh imo
[14:52] <genewitch> Yoinx: it's something i am doing for cloud use
[14:52] <MeanEYE> genewitch: maybe they could do something about that... although I doubt it will get any high attention ..
[14:52] <mrdeb> bastidrazor: so it will boot
[14:52] <vesper_> after today's update my ubutnu os is showing a starnge problem when ever i open my file brouser it opens all files in totem music player rather than the file brouser
[14:52] <mrdeb> and if it doesnt boot, what is the next step?
[14:52] <jimbibob1> its 10.10 ubutunu xinit still gives unknown command the screen i have shows the following: 'GNU GRUB version 1.98+20100804-5ubuntu3
[14:52] <jimbibob1> Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists possible device or file completions
[14:52] <vesper_> can anyone help
[14:53] <vesper_> after today's update my ubutnu os is showing a starnge problem when ever i open my file brouser it opens all files in totem music player rather than the file brouser
[14:53] <jimbibob1> ubuntu*
[14:53] <vesper_> ya
[14:53] <ruan> jimbibob1: you're in a grub recovery console, not ubuntu recovery mode
[14:53] <bastidrazor> mrdeb: make it do a fsck if the boot fails. my wife has powered my 10.04 box off multiple times and its always booted back
[14:53] <Yoinx> vesper, check your file associations
[14:53] <MeanEYE> vesper_: 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 with
[14:53] <genewitch> jimbibob1: you're not booted into ubuntu yet, grub is a bootloader
[14:53] <genewitch> !info grub
[14:53] <vesper_> ya
[14:53] <bastidrazor> !fsck
[14:53] <vesper_> its all the smae as before
[14:54] <MeanEYE> vesper_: every single file is opened with totem or just media files?
[14:54] <Bruce_Wayne> Hey guys, is there any way to call a python script automatically when we log in?
[14:54] <jimbibob1> ruan: ahhh sorry, im new to this where do i go from here, or is this gonna get long winded?
[14:54] <MeanEYE> Bruce_Wayne: you can pretty much put anything in System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications
[14:54] <Bruce_Wayne> MeanEYE: It doesn't work like that.. I don't know why
[14:55] <neil_d> Bruce_Wayne: yes.  put in the 'startup applications'
[14:55] <MeanEYE> Bruce_Wayne: make sure you set +x (executable) on that script
[14:55] <ruan> jimbibob1: i think you'll need to boot a livecd and repair grub
[14:55] <mrdeb> bastidrazor: how do you run the check in root safe mode
[14:55] <Bruce_Wayne> MeanEYE: It is already
[14:55] <vesper_> @Yoinx: how to check file associations
[14:55] <MeanEYE> Bruce_Wayne: does script has #!/usr/bin/env python as frist line?
[14:55] <jimbibob1> ruan: thanks, ill give it a go :)
[14:56] <Bruce_Wayne> MeanEYE: It's not my coding.. let me check for that Shebang
[14:56] <MeanEYE> Bruce_Wayne: ok,
[14:56] <bolky> has empathy some problem to connect to jid from google ?
[14:56] <llutz_> that fsck-factoid is wrong, "shutdown -F " won't work with ubuntu since years.
[14:56] <Yoinx> vesper, you can find them in ubuntu tweak if you have it installed.
[14:56] <bastidrazor> mrdeb: sudo touch /forcefsck   then reboot, afterwards remove /forcefsck
[14:56] <Matisse> how do I find out which files are added when installing a certain package?  apt-cache <smth.> package  ?
[14:56] <MeanEYE> llutz_: shutdown does work, just needs sudo
[14:56] <Yoinx> ...probably the easiest way since it provides them all in a list like windows does.
[14:57] <llutz_> MeanEYE: shutdown -F won't work
[14:57] <neil_d> Matisse: you can find out via synaptic.
[14:57] <Matisse> llutz, read-edid  cant be called by the command read-edid  :)
[14:57] <mrdeb> remove how
[14:57] <MeanEYE> llutz_: I don't see -F in flags
[14:57] <bastidrazor> mrdeb: sudo rm /forcefsck
[14:57] <Bruce_Wayne> MeanEYE: 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" it
[14:58] <MeanEYE> Bruce_Wayne: python /path/to/script.py
[14:58] <bastidrazor> mrdeb: those commands will make a file then delete it.  the command 'touch' just makes a file
[14:58] <Matisse> neil_d, thx
[14:58] <nerdshell> how to know my current kernel version?
[14:58] <MeanEYE> llutz_: hm, I always used sudo shutdown now ;D
[14:58] <Dr_Willis> nerdshell:  uname -a
[14:58] <llutz_> !fsck > MeanEYE this factoid is wrong, thats what i said. not more, not less
[14:58] <mrdeb> nerdshell: uname -a
[14:58] <nerdshell> Dr_Willis: thanks ;)
[14:58] <MeanEYE> llutz_: k k k :D
[14:59] <jose> holaa
[14:59] <MeanEYE> jose: hi
[14:59] <neil_d> i 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 md2
[14:59] <nerdshell> I 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] <ruan> nerdshell: different distros use different kernel versions
[14:59] <Dr_Willis> nerdshell:  the latest kernel from kernel.org is not  always the latest in ubuntu.
[15:00] <Dr_Willis> nerdshell:  you will proberly find MOST things in ubuntu are not the latest version.
[15:00] <MeanEYE> nerdshell: it's not wise to install kernels from other repositories than ubuntus because they are tested to ensure stability
[15:00] <nerdshell> MeanEYE: this is what take so long, no?
[15:01] <jose> como estas?
[15:01] <genewitch> neil_d: because you only removed one partition?
[15:01] <MeanEYE> nerdshell: yeah, ubuntu has to consider business users as well
[15:01] <genewitch> neil_d: apt-get dist-upgrade
[15:01] <Bruce_Wayne> MeanEYE: I'll be back after reboot.. I presume this will work..
[15:01] <jose> algien sabe como instalar una tarjeta grafica en ubuntu 8.04?
[15:01] <MeanEYE> Bruce_Wayne: ok ;D
[15:01] <Daekdroom> !es | jose
[15:02] <Crash1hd> ugg 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 help
[15:02] <neil_d> genewitch: I removed the whole drive, so all partitions on that drive should be failed, I would think.
[15:02] <mneptok> Crash1hd: run the fsck again
[15:02] <Yoinx> Yeah 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] <ilea> can someone yell me a good program for drawing i need a program that is not very complex and can be used with a drawing pen conected to the pc
[15:02] <jose> gracias
[15:02] <ilea> tell*
[15:03] <mneptok> jose: de nada
[15:03] <Crash1hd> mneptok, fsck.ext4: Unable to resolve 'UUID=e75293c5-0f70-486f-8b0e-c986e82857e7'
[15:03] <genewitch> neil_d: i don't think you understand how raid works. you took out 1 drive with 1 partition
[15:03] <Yoinx> You 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] <mneptok> Crash1hd: ls /dev/sd*
[15:03] <mneptok> Crash1hd: what do you see?
[15:04] <OerHeks> ilea inkscape, gimp
[15:04] <neil_d> genewitch: I took out 1 drive with 3 partitiions, one in each md0,md1 and md2
[15:04] <Yoinx> neil, how do they show in your mtab/fstab?
[15:04] <nerdshell> Yoinx: Yeah, that's the difference between ubuntu and Win updates
[15:04] <nerdshell> ;)
[15:05] <Yoinx> maybe they're not all mounted with the same options.
[15:05] <madsj> I just upgraded to Maverick (10.10), and ssh started requested password for hosts that I should have uploaded a key to
[15:05] <madsj> what's the trick to get this fixed?
[15:05] <jiltdil> whay is in some system there is /sda or /hda
[15:05] <genewitch> neil_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.
[15:06] <jiltdil> ??????
[15:06] <jose> perdona la molestia pero eso se pone en una terminal?
[15:07] <genewitch> firefox is about 25 times snappier and responsive with x forwarding than chrome. someone make a note.
[15:07] <Abhijit> hi
[15:08] <Abhijit> help. while trying to delete some files in memory card which is inside mobile phone giving error - Read only file system. cannot delete.
[15:08] <jiltdil> Abhijit: what's the trick to get this fixed?
[15:08] <genewitch> jiltdil: HD is parallel ATA hard drive/cdrom and SD is serial ATA. Generally.
[15:08] <Abhijit> jiltdil, excuseme? what fix? who are you? what are you talking about?
[15:08] <Yoinx> abh, remount it without ro.
[15:08] <dalvikarmy> Abhijit: mount it as rw then
[15:09] <Abhijit> dalvikarmy, how?
[15:09] <jiltdil> Abhijit: actually m copying my question from above but i mistaken by copying other
[15:09] <jiltdil> sorry
[15:09] <Yoinx> jil, it depends on the type of drive usually
[15:09] <Abhijit> I did not mount it as read only. i just plugged it in dalvikarmy
[15:09] <Abhijit> jiltdil, hmm ok
[15:09] <dalvikarmy> Abhijit: mount --rw ?
[15:09] <MeanEYE> genewitch: might the fact ff is :D slower than chrome :P
[15:09] <Yoinx> sda is typically sata, hda is typically pata.
[15:09] <resno> my adobe flash vids are showing in a pink hue, any ideas?
[15:09] <Bruce_Wayne> MeanEYE: Thanks.. :D It worked just fine..
[15:09] <resno> on ububtn 10.10
[15:09] <MeanEYE> Bruce_Wayne: np
[15:09] <genewitch> MeanEYE: not over x forwarding, i can actually use it.
[15:10] <MeanEYE> genewitch: I know, just sayign :D

[15:10] <nahuel_> I'm trying to help a friend who was playing with his brand new ubuntu laptop and the desktop stopped working, you end up with just a background image, and nothing else, can access console, he thinks it was the last thing he installed, but doesn't know what it was, and doesn't care if the box needs to be taken back to just-installed condition
[15:10] <Dr_Willis> 'IDE/Ata' disks started getting called using the /dev/sdXX syntax a few years back.
[15:10] <jiltdil> genegenewitch:what is diff between parralel and serial ata
[15:11] <Dr_Willis> !ide
[15:11] <Abhijit> dalvikarmy, mount: /dev/sdc already mounted or /media/1234-5678 busy
[15:11] <Dr_Willis> Hmm.
[15:11] <Abhijit> mount: according to mtab, /dev/sdc is already mounted on /media/1234-5678
[15:11] <neil_d> genewitch: It looks like the mounts are as I expected... md0 and md1 (the swap) are mounted but md2 doesn't appear to be mounted.... I suppose md1 being a swap, if the swap isn't used it wont be noticed that it isn't fully there.
[15:11] <Dr_Willis> !ata
[15:11] <nahuel_> is there an easy way to remove everything but fresh-install packages?
[15:11] <ruan> nahuel_: can he access the desktop with startx?
[15:11] <Dr_Willis> nahuel_:  you mean revert back to a clean installd system?
[15:11] <punica> hello, I have a question about the V4L2 interface, how to implement a power line frequency filter for a video device?
[15:11] <resno> ruan: thanks a ton, i couldnt get that solution on goolge
[15:11] <Yoinx> hm willis, you're right.. Sorry about that.
[15:11] <neil_d> genewitch: I will put thing back and try again.
[15:12] <dalvikarmy> Abhijit: umount then first
[15:12] <jiltdil> !Ata
[15:12] <nahuel_> ruan: the server is running, it just doesn't work
[15:12] <dalvikarmy> Abhijit: mount /dev/xxx -o rw /mnt
[15:12] <nahuel_> Dr_Willis: yes, that I mean
[15:12] <jiltdil> !ATA
[15:12] <hiexpo> my mplayer totem not playing .wmv files any longer on the net oron the desktop
[15:12] <Bruce_Wayne> Does anyone know how to set up a cronjob to disconnect & then connect the pppoe connection at specific time?? I just need commands for that
[15:12] <nahuel_> Dr_Willis: without actually reinstalling, of course
[15:12] <Abhijit> dalvikarmy, if unmounted then while mounting it gives error /media/xxx can not find
[15:13] <ThinkT510> !codecs | hiexpo
[15:13] <MeanEYE> Bruce_Wayne: how do you connect?
[15:13] <Daekdroom> !fglrx
[15:13] <Dr_Willis> nahuel_:  not seen a easy way to do it.. proberly doable. but it would be faster to reinstall.
[15:14] <Bruce_Wayne> MeanEYE: By that network applet
[15:14] <nahuel_> ruan: Xorg.log doesn't show any errors
[15:14] <derango> hey, could you tell me how can I start the monitor-management applet from the terminal? i would like to set up a second screen
[15:14] <nahuel_> I can't find an error log for X
[15:14] <dalvikarmy> Abhijit: paste exactly what you did and output
[15:14] <Yoinx> Bruce_Wayne,   shouldn't you just be able to setup a cron job to restart your networking service?
[15:14] <Dr_Willis> derango:  the icon launches -> gnome-display-properties
[15:15] <derango> Dr_Willis: thank you very much!
[15:15] <Bruce_Wayne> Yoinx: for that I need a command that will automate the whole process first.. I am not able to find it
[15:15] <Abhijit> dalvikarmy, i first did this umount /media/1234-5678
[15:16] <Bruce_Wayne> Yoinx, I have set up cron jobs for calling some scripts, back ups and shutdown.. those were pretty easy
[15:16] <Abhijit> dalvikarmy, now i do sudo mount /media/1234-5678 -o rw /mnt
[15:16] <Abhijit> mount: special device /media/1234-5678 does not exist
[15:16] <Bruce_Wayne> Yoinx, *root cron*
[15:16] <MeanEYE> Bruce_Wayne: well, making a script is easy... problem is how to connect, pppoeconf does that but I have no idea how it works
[15:16] <Daekdroom> I can't find the wiki page for uninstalling the fglrx driver.
[15:17] <Bruce_Wayne> MeanEYE, yeah.. that's the main problem
[15:17] <MeanEYE> Bruce_Wayne: disconnecting should be easy...
[15:17] <jiltdil> Dr_willis: if i want to acess any computer having ubuntu  in WAN then is this the condition that the that comp have installed openssh-server?
[15:17] <hiexpo> ThinkT510, i have all the codecsand it has been working fine beforejustnoticed this am getting internal data stream error
[15:18] <Yoinx> Bruce_Wayne,  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[15:18] <jiltdil> Dr_Willis:or simply openssh-client?
[15:18] <dalvikarmy> Abhijit: you missed device block name before /media/
[15:19] <MeanEYE> Yoinx: he needs a cron job to reconnect at specified time :)
[15:19] <Yoinx> Should be able to use the poff dsl-provider / pon dsl-provider in a simple script I would think
[15:19] <hiexpo> ThinkT510, oh and if i open the file with smplayer it works
[15:19] <wzrdsg> I installed linux last night and cannot get wireless working can someone help
[15:19] <Abhijit> dalvikarmy, what is that?
[15:19] <dalvikarmy> Abhijit: pastebin fdisk -l
[15:19] <Bruce_Wayne> MeanEYE, how?
[15:19] <jiltdil> if i want to acess any computer having ubuntu  in WAN then is this the condition that the that comp have installed openssh-server or simply openssh-client ?
[15:20] <vlaar> wzrdsg what kind of wireless card or dongle do you have?
[15:20] <MeanEYE> Bruce_Wayne: check what Yoinx said, I didn't know of those commands
[15:20] <nahuel_> any way of at least sort the installed packages by installation date?
[15:20] <Bruce_Wayne> Yoinx, thanks.. that all looks pretty interesting.. i'll go through all of it
[15:20] <Crash1hd> running sudo fsck.ext4 -f /dev/sdc1 but it doesnt see it
[15:20] <Bruce_Wayne> MeanEYE, thanks.. :D
[15:20] <wzrdsg> I have a dell studio laptop I think it is a broadcom
[15:20] <genewitch> jiltdil: the one you want to access needs server, the one you want to use to access it with needs the client.
[15:20] <Abhijit> dalvikarmy, it dont give any output
[15:20] <MeanEYE> Bruce_Wayne: no problem... first step is creating script that will restart connection, then I'll help make cron job
[15:21] <Yoinx> I would think you could do something like 00 00 * * * poff  then 00 01 * * * pon
[15:21] <jiltdil> genewitch: but i acess my host through my guest but my host has not installed server
[15:21] <Yoinx> but, I dont have ppoe, so I dunno
[15:21] <vlaar> wzrdsg would that be a dell studio 1558?
[15:21] <MeanEYE> Yoinx: have, but my router is keeping the connection alive
[15:21] <dalvikarmy> Abhijit: gotta go kindergarten, later
[15:21] <genewitch> jiltdil: pretty sure it's on by default depending on your installer options.
[15:21] <MeanEYE> Yoinx: I have*
[15:21] <Abhijit> bye
[15:21] <wzrdsg> dell studio 15 i would have to flip it over for the exact model
[15:22] <ThinkT510> hiexpo: sorry, wish i could help more
[15:22] <haozhonghu> help! my ubuntu can not change brightness, the Fn key works, but not really change the brightness, my laptop is dell inspiron 13z , ubuntu version 10.04
[15:22] <Yoinx> only thing with that method, is that you would have a minute where the connection was dead...
[15:22] <jiltdil> genewitch: how to check that my openssh-server has installed or not?
[15:22] <MeanEYE> ThinkT510: is your nick ThinkPad inspired?
[15:22] <haozhonghu> help! my ubuntu can not change brightness, the Fn key works, but not really change the brightness, my laptop is dell inspiron 13z , ubuntu version 10.04
[15:22] <Yoinx> you could make a little script, to do it all in the same cron job for less downtime (i would guess)
[15:22] <ThinkT510> MeanEYE: indeed
[15:22] <wzrdsg> dell studio 1537
[15:22] <MeanEYE> ThinkT510: care to share some experiences with it, am planning on buying a new laptop soon
[15:23] <MeanEYE> ThinkT510: with whole series I mean. A friend scared me with story how quality feels plastic an bad
[15:23] <jiltdil> genewitch: also when i use virtual box os in NAT mode i cannot acess it through my host while when i use it in bridge mode i easily acess it from my host?
[15:23] <Dr_Willis> haozhonghu:  #1 check the forums for that exact brand/make. also perhaps try a newer live cd. see if works on 10.10 or 11.04
[15:24] <haozhonghu> the same problem in ubuntu 11.04
[15:24] <Dr_Willis> haozhonghu:  file a bug report.
[15:24] <ThinkT510> MeanEYE: i have a t40 and t60, my new t510 is fantastic, the t40 and t60 overheat a little quicky, but the t510 stays suprisingly cool, thinkpads have been brilliant for me, my t40 still ticking along 52 days uptime with xubuntu
[15:24] <Dr_Willis> the forums Might have some tweaks/work arounds if you are lucky haozhonghu
[15:25] <haozhonghu> thanks Dr_Willis
[15:25] <haozhonghu> let me check forum again...
[15:25] <Diverdude> I am making a small sketch, and need to see if people can see what it actually is. Can anybody see what this is supposed to be: http://img217.imageshack.us/f/25471475.png/
[15:25] <MeanEYE> ThinkT510: my friend bought a I don't know which series... anyway, he said plastic cracked, had to take him 2 times for repair... and am shooting for either thinkpad or hp
[15:25] <vlaar> wzrdsg do you know which particular broadcom it is, cause that model is officially released with an intel 5?00 or a dell wireless card
[15:26] <MeanEYE> Diverdude: it looks like wing profile :D
[15:26] <MeanEYE> Diverdude: or trollface ;P
[15:26] <Diverdude> MeanEYE, hehehe a trollface? :D
[15:26] <MeanEYE> Diverdude: http://paradoxdgn.com/junk/avatars/trollface.jpg
[15:26] <oCean> Diverdude: whatever it is, better try #ubuntu-offtpic, not here
[15:27] <ThinkT510> MeanEYE: i'd recommend thinkpad (obvious bias from me) because the ultrabay is swapable (cd/dvd drive or secondary harddrive)
[15:27] <wzrdsg> I ran a command last night that told me but I can not remember It was a broadcom they make the dell wireless but it will not run off the generic broadcom  driver
[15:28] <MeanEYE> ThinkT510: do they come with ssd, being a programmer I decided on few things I want: good keyboard, gloss-free screen, ssd and 13.3" inch screen (need portability badly)
[15:29] <Crash1hd> anyone know why my hdd shows up in diskutility but not gparted?
[15:29] <ThinkT510> MeanEYE: yes they do have ssd drives available for purchase in the laptops or seperately
[15:29] <MeanEYE> ThinkT510: great, thank for info :D

[15:29] <KSHawkEye> Hello, when trying to remove PulseAudio with "sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio" it reports that ubuntu-desktop* will be removed as well, is this safe to do? how else can i remove PulseAudio?
[15:30] <Diverdude> MeanEYE, what if i say its a fish fillet?
[15:30] <oCean> Diverdude: please stop
[15:30] <wzrdsg> I did lspci and it says Broadcom BCM4312
[15:30] <flexo_> hey. first time for everything - i broke apt: http://pastie.org/1666946 - any suggestions?
[15:30] <MeanEYE> KSHawkEye: ubuntu-desktop is a dummy package, it only depends on others though am not sure if it's smart to remove pulseaudio
[15:30] <MeanEYE> Diverdude: OT:)... don't know
[15:30] <vlaar> wzrdsg i'm assuming your using lucid. then i would say try install windows driver with ndiswrapper
[15:30] <Diverdude> MeanEYE, OT ?
[15:31] <oCean> !ot > Diverdude
[15:31] <MeanEYE> !ot | Diverdude
[15:31] <xen> lol
[15:31] <xen> hehe
[15:31] <diogo_79> hi
[15:31] <flexo_> and i thought before i try to force removing packages through dpkg and make things worse i first ask here :)
[15:31] <xen> i need some help with the banshee lyrics plugin.
[15:32] <KSHawkEye> MeanEYE: Thanks, I need to remove it so I can install OSS apparently? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSound is what I'm trying to do. So just confirming its okay to proceed?
[15:32] <MeanEYE> xen: can you be more specific about the question
[15:32] <vlaar> that particular model is supposed to work with b43.
[15:32] <Diverdude> xen, a banshee lyrics plugin. What is that supposed to do?
[15:32] <MeanEYE> KSHawkEye: should be... other packages won't be removed
[15:32] <wzrdsg> I downloaded a driver from broadcom that is supposed to be for dell specifiic broadcom did make install but I do not know if linux is using that driver or not
[15:33] <xen> err its like... i installed the plugin and since then banshee will never work.. its like i have to force quit it every time... u want me to send u the error log?
[15:34] <MeanEYE> xen: was this plugin in ubuntu repository? and do you have banshee ppa installed?
[15:34] <diogo_79> can anyone tell me how can i change the apperance of netbeans in ubuntu 10.04????, the menu seems strange with ambience theme, i just whant to tell to ubuntu not to apply the ambience theme to that specific apllication(netbeans)
[15:34] <diogo_79> is this possible?
[15:34] <vlaar> wzrdsg look in restricted drivers and you can see if it is in use
[15:35] <MeanEYE> diogo_79: there should be option to set GTK+ appearance
[15:35] <MeanEYE> diogo_79: option in netbeans that is
[15:35] <xen> MeanEYE, i just googled the plugin, and downloaded the one that came first...
[15:35] <wzrdsg> how do I do that
[15:35] <xen> MeanEYE, its now like even i remove banshee and then try reinstalling it, the error still oersists
[15:36] <xen> MeanEYE, i'll give u details abt the install.sh file...
[15:36] <ruan> i recieved a file via bluetooth, where was it stored?
[15:36] <MeanEYE> xen: plugin might reqire newer version of banshee. you should try adding banshee ppa first
[15:36] <iamaregee2> @ruan in public folder
[15:37] <vlaar> system/administration/ hardware drivers .i'm assuming you're using lucid
[15:37] <ruan> iamaregee2: thanks

[15:40] <Savage^> Iszak: what version of windows are you connecting to?
[15:40] <xen> MeanEYE, i installed by double clicking the install.sh file... :D
[15:40] <xen> MeanEYE, oops... me the big nooooooooooooooooob
[15:40] <ThinkT510> hiexpo: well done, glad you fixed it,thanks for reporting back

[15:40] <ThinkT510> !yay | hiexpo
[15:40] <xen> MeanEYE, any idea how do i fix this
[15:41] <ikonia> ubuntu10: calm down, that's the actual issue ?
[15:41] <Izsha> Hi 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] <vlaar> wzrdsg is the driver in use too?
[15:41] <hiexpo> ThinkT510, ya it was comflicting with totem gstreamer
[15:41] <ikonia> Iszak: ok, if you want to access that share you need to "mount" it
[15:41] <diogo_79> man you are a saver
[15:41] <ubuntu10> ikonia: when i try to install something like kde-full or try to update it says insert media cd..blahblahblah
[15:41] <xen> MeanEYE, yea i googled stuffz later on... and found out tat its there in the repository itself
[15:41] <wzrdsg> it says it is
[15:41] <diogo_79> thanks a lot
[15:41] <MeanEYE> xen: did this "plugin" asked for password before installing?
[15:41] <Iszak> ikonia, okay right I can man that, how do I view my bookmarks to other drives/servers?
[15:42] <Savage^> iszak what's the shortcut?
[15:42] <xen> MeanEYE, nope...
[15:42] <ikonia> ubuntu10: ok, that means the ubuntu CD is currently in the source.list as a repo, remove it, re-run apt-get update then install
[15:42] <ThinkT510> hiexpo: i'm a vlc man myself, can't stand totem, good work
[15:42] <MeanEYE> xen: yea it did, anyway, file is somewhere in your system, no clue where...
[15:42] <Iszak> Savage^, it's just one you create when connecting to a network server.
[15:42] <ubuntu10> ikonia: how would i do that?
[15:42] <MeanEYE> xen: problem probably isn't with that plugin but I'd still remove it
[15:42] <Savage^> well there any many ways to 'connect to a server'
[15:42] <xen> MeanEYE, damn... i've tried everything to figure this out... :(
[15:42] <ikonia> Iszak: bookmarks on your windows machine ?
[15:42] <ubuntu10> ikonia: do i edit my source.list file?
[15:42] <JernejL_> hi
[15:42] <ikonia> ubuntu10: are you currently running gnome or kde ?
[15:42] <Savage^> is it an SMB share?
[15:42] <Iszak> ikonia, no linux
[15:42] <MeanEYE> xen: give me the output of whereis Banshee.Lyrics.dll
[15:42] <ubuntu10> ikonia: currently gnome
[15:43] <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] <ikonia> Iszak: ok, your book marks will be visible when you open the applications that use those book marks, eg: firefox
[15:43] <Iszak> ikonia, no GUI
[15:43] <ikonia> ubuntu10: ok, so from the software sources gui you can disable the CD
[15:43] <JernejL_> like, if "Incoming connection:" shows up twice in sequence
[15:43] <hiexpo> thinced, yes me to but some of the videos online are wmv so kinda forced to using it
[15:43] <ikonia> Iszak: then how do you expect to view use your bookmarks ?
[15:43] <Iszak> ikonia, they've got to be stored somewhere.
[15:43] <hiexpo> ThinkT510, yes me to but some of the videos online are wmv so kinda forced to using it
[15:43] <ikonia> Iszak: they are, but how do you expect to use them without a gui
[15:44] <xen> MeanEYE, the error comes up something like this.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/579803/
[15:44] <ThinkT510> hiexpo: vlc plays wmv fine too
[15:44] <Iszak> ikonia, I want their details.
[15:44] <xen> MeanEYE, * haozhonghu (~gavin@125.121.214.84) has left #ubuntu
[15:44] <xen> * netsjanek (~janek@metroeth-nat34.217.146.194.generacja.pl) has joined #ubuntu
[15:44] <ikonia> Iszak: ok, but how do you expect to use them without a gui
[15:44] <ubuntu10> ikonia: is it in source list though?
[15:45] <hiexpo> ThinkT510, i know buthow do i configure a pluggin to play with that online
[15:45] <ikonia> ubuntu10: yes
[15:45] <MeanEYE> xen: yes, it's that "plugin" that making problems for you
[15:45] <xen> MeanEYE, the result of whereis - http://paste.ubuntu.com/579806/
[15:45] <ubuntu10> ikonia: let me check real quick..
[15:45] <Iszak> ikonia, I expect to use them via the mount command, I just need the details. The situation is I'm not on my desktop PC at work, it's got a GUI, I can SSH into it, I need to SSH into that (covered) then connect to an internal windows share
[15:45] <DarkWell> hello there
[15:45] <Crash1hd> ugg 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 help
[15:45] <MeanEYE> xen: did you paste that command exactly ?
[15:45] <ikonia> Iszak: mount won't allow you to use the bookmarks
[15:45] <MeanEYE> xen: also, you can paste one line :D here
[15:45] <xen> MeanEYE, yea i knw.... and ya the command is actually the way it is.. :D
[15:46] <Iszak> ikonia, I know that's why I need to get the details FROM the bookmarks and hence is why I need to know where they are stored.
[15:46] <ikonia> Iszak: your bookmarks are in your home directory under .mozilla
[15:46] <xen> MeanEYE, lol... fine
[15:46] <Savage^> Iszak, you can mount an SMB share using the mount command through ssh, whats the problem?
[15:46] <Savage^> ahh ok
[15:46] <ThinkT510> hiexpo: as in through the browser there should be a mozilla-vlc plugin in the repos
[15:46] <Iszak> Savage^, I need to get the details from a ubuntu bookmark
[15:46] <Lint01> Savage^, it is broken for some time
[15:46] <Savage^> yeah they should be in your profile directory in .mozilla
[15:46] <Izsha> Reposting issue in hopes of a response... forgive the spam.
[15:46] <Lint01> Iszak, check ~/.gtkbookmars
[15:46] <vlaar> try lshw -c network and see if it is disabled
[15:46] <DarkWell> i tried to use usb creator it all seemed to work copying stuff from the .iso to usb.. but when trying to boot up from the usb stick it complaing about casper something on /cdrom
[15:46] <Izsha> 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 them from...
[15:46] <Izsha> ...the update manager on a different install.  Any ideas?
[15:46] <DarkWell> i dont have any of this
[15:46] <Iszak> Lint01, thanks will do.
[15:47] <xen> MeanEYE, i tried using the whereis command before and deleting the directories after removing banshee using sudo apt-remove
[15:47] <ubuntu10> ikonia: E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[15:47] <ubuntu10> E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/
[15:47] <ThinkT510> !info mozilla-plugin-vlc | hiexpo
[15:47] <ubuntu10> thats what i get now
[15:47] <xen> MeanEYE, but still of no use :(
[15:47] <DarkWell> is the startupscript frong an need to be edited before attemtping to boot up from usb ?
[15:47] <ikonia> ubuntu10: because you already have a package manager window/gui open, close it, then redo it
[15:47] <DarkWell> frong = wrong
[15:47] <ubuntu10> ikonia: i did killall apt-get though.. :/
[15:48] <ikonia> ubuntu10: so ? you already have a package manager window OR gui open, close it
[15:48] <theos> hi! what can be the reason that irc and messengers are working but i cant open any website in firefox?
[15:48] <vlaar> wzrdsg try "lshw -c network" and see if the card is disabled

[15:49] <Savage^> theos: are you able to ping google.com?
[15:49] <theos> Savage^, no i cant ping :(
[15:49] <wzrdsg> yes it is
[15:49] <Savage^> well obviously you can ping your IRC server
[15:49] <Savage^> might be a DNS issue
[15:49] <wzrdsg> Yes it is disabled
[15:49] <influx6> wel finaly awesome to be in here
[15:50] <ubuntu10> ruan: rebooting worked!! lazyness ftw :D
[15:50] <ruan> ubuntu10: lol
[15:50] <Savage^> theos can you ping 74.125.77.99 ?
[15:50] <xen> MeanEYE, kk give me a minute
[15:50] <vlaar> wzrdsg then your driver isn't properly loaded(or installed). you might try reinstalling the driver
[15:50] <theos> Savage^, yes
[15:50] <wzrdsg> how
[15:50] <ccvvcc> how can i use \n in grep example grep "line1\nline2" file
[15:51] <Savage^> then it's most definitely a DNS issue
[15:51] <MeanEYE> xen: np :D
[15:51] <theos> Savage^, what can i do? or what is dns issue?
[15:51] <influx6> come to think of it,how do mount a cd drive if only the ubuntu base system was the only thing installed
[15:51] <ruan> theos: yep, DNS. dns converts names to IP addresses.
[15:51] <KSHawkEye> Is there any way to brush up on my linux commandline commands? I'm fresh to Ubuntu and am using the server and I'

[15:58] <wzrdsg> I used synaptic and removed it
[15:58] <MeanEYE> meltingwax: once you change it back to normal, then do a release upgrade command
[15:58] <wzrdsg> do I have to restart still
[15:58] <MeanEYE> influx6: can you repeat now?
[15:58] <mrdeb> the LTS cd is not available from the ubuntu shop?
[15:59] <Izsha> 10.04 is LL and 10.10 is MM, right?
[15:59] <m1nt> :D
[15:59] <MeanEYE> Izsha: yes
[15:59] <ruan> Izsha: yea
[15:59] <meltingwax> MeanEYE: sweet, it seems to be able to start crunching now. thanks
[15:59] <ActionParsnip> mrdeb: http://shop.canonical.com/index.php?cPath=17
[15:59] <ruan> Izsha: lucid & maverick
[15:59] <MeanEYE> mrdeb: you can always download iso :D
[15:59] <MeanEYE> meltingwax: no problemo :D
[15:59]  * m1nt waves to ActionParsnip 
[15:59] <ActionParsnip> thanks ikonia

[16:00] <Izsha> Savage^:  Are you still here?
[16:00] <Abhijit_> i just pressed some random key stroke accidentally and then laptop screen goes blank. but computer was on. i need to forcefully restart! :-( #strange
[16:00] <ActionParsnip> proper: pleasae reply in here. I don't support in PM
[16:00] <mrdeb> MeanEYE: is there a way to imprint a pretty lable on it though
[16:01] <vlaar> after removing you have to reboot
[16:01] <ruan> Abhijit_: sounds like a suspend key
[16:01] <wzrdsg> vlarr: ok thanks
[16:01] <DarkWell> +
[16:01] <MeanEYE> mrdeb: let me check something...
[16:01] <Abhijit> ruan, may be
[16:01] <Savage^> Izsha, yes?
[16:01] <ruan> Abhijit: is there any wake up key on your keyboard? or sleep?
[16:02] <Izsha> Savage^:  To theos's question, if it was a DNS issue, how would you go about solving that?
[16:02] <mrdeb> does lightscribe burn professional label to the front of the cd?
[16:02] <Abhijit> ruan, it is there but i hurried and restarted!
[16:02] <ActionParsnip> mrdeb: thats what the technology is for, yes
[16:02] <Savage^> im not sure, actually
[16:02] <llutz_> mrdeb: no, just kind of strange graphics on special media
[16:02] <MeanEYE> mrdeb: yeah seems there are no 10.04 disks
[16:02] <Savage^> i would hit google
[16:03] <theos> what to do if its a dns issue? and you cant open google :D
[16:03] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: can you ping 8.8.8.8 ?
[16:03] <ruan> theos: you can access the internet but only ip addresses
[16:03] <theos> oh. :(
[16:03] <person> Hey, where are desktop shortcuts stored? For example, when an application runs it automatically creates a shortcut, and I want to delete it every time this occurs.
[16:03] <mrdeb> does lightscribe burn to the label side or data side?
[16:03] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  I'm unable to ping anything.
[16:03] <ruan> theos: you'll need to fix DNS
[16:04] <theos> ruan, how to do that?
[16:04] <MeanEYE> person: /usr/share/applications
[16:04] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: not even IP addresses? Not even your routers internal IP?
[16:04] <ruan> theos: i havent got much experience with this, but i could suggest reinstalling network manager
[16:04] <ActionParsnip> ruan: if  user cannot ping the internal IP of the router its not DNS
[16:05] <person> Not in $HOME/Desktop ?
[16:05] <ruan> ActionParsnip: hmm
[16:05] <MeanEYE> mrdeb: other side, but you need a special disk
[16:05] <theos> Izsha, open terminal and type "ping -c 2 8.8.8.8"
[16:05] <MeanEYE> person: well, which shortcut are you refering to, if it's on desktop then yes, ~/Desktop but if it's applications menu then it's there
[16:05] <theos> ruan, my network manager doesnt work. :D i use wicd
[16:05] <person> I see, thanks.
[16:05] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  I didn't do an indepth testing of what I could ping, I'm currently on a Win7 installation because there wasn't much I could do on 10.10 with no internet, but I was able to access my router's admin page, even though it did not acknowledge that I was connected to it from the attached devices table.
[16:05] <MeanEYE> person: no problem
[16:06] <theos> ah the applet doesnt work soz
[16:07] <hiexpo> ThinkT510, so the vlc pluggin will play the windows media player
[16:07] <theos> should i reinstall network manager?
[16:07] <vlaar> wzrdsg before reinstalling check if b43 shows op in additional drivers
[16:07] <ruan> theos: you could try reinstalling wicd
[16:07] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: 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 PC
[16:07] <ThinkT510> hiexpo: i assume so yes
[16:07] <ruan> theos: do you have a router?
[16:07] <wzrdsg> how
[16:07] <theos> ruan, i have a modem
[16:08] <hiexpo> k
[16:08] <gumus> hi all
[16:08] <keithclark> I am trying to share a printer over my local network and am having issues.  I have made it shareable on the host machine, but when I try to print from a remote machine I get a Authentication window and I cannot seem to be able to get past that point.
[16:08] <MeanEYE> gumus: :D hi... do ask :D
[16:08] <theos> can it be the isp side problem too?
[16:09] <vlaar> wzrdsg after uninstalling check if b43 is properly deleted by looking at /system/administration/additional drivers
[16:09] <MeanEYE> keithclark: my guess is to enable guest printing
[16:09] <gumus> meanEYE: :D ok. question is coming... How can I remove the embedded subtitle in Mplayer?
[16:09] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Do you have any recommendations on what to do afterwards?
[16:09] <ActionParsnip> keithclark: run:   sudo smbpasswd -a $USER     use the same password as the login password and you can now authenticate as the user (obviously tell the OS to remember it)
[16:09] <gumus> i am setting a different subtitle but the first one still appears,
[16:10] <MeanEYE> gumus: if it's embeded in video, you can't...
[16:10] <vlaar> wsrdsg if it is additional drivers will ask you to install b43
[16:10] <theos> :)
[16:10] <wzrdsg> I have two broadcom drivers available
[16:10] <keithclark> ActionParsnip, on which machine?
[16:10] <gumus> MeanEYE: well , i don't have any idea whether it's embedded or not , but it has a text file in the same folder
[16:11] <MeanEYE> gumus: try moving that text file and then playing a video
[16:11] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: run:  sudo lshw -C network > ~/Desktop/data.txt    copy the file to your NTFS partition (as windows is too limited and cannot read or write ext4) and pastebin the text and give us the link
[16:11] <MeanEYE> gumus: what's the extension of video file?
[16:11] <ActionParsnip> keithclark: on the print server side
[16:11] <ActionParsnip> keithclark: this will make an account you can authenticate as
[16:12] <gumus> MeanEye: yes i did it. but subtitle is still there, so there's nothing much to do i guess?
[16:12] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Does it matter if I run this from the LiveCD?  I am able to connect to the wireless, but unable to browse there as well.
[16:12] <theos> thanks all, i should reconnect to the internet
[16:12] <lhr> how to use the BT?
[16:12] <ruan> lhr: bittorrent applications?
[16:12] <ActionParsnip> lhr: what is BT?
[16:13] <Abhijit> !backtrack | lhr
[16:13] <keithclark> ActionParsnip, nope, still not printing.  Who would have thought such a simple thing as printer sharing can be so difficult?
[16:13] <lhr> yes
[16:13] <hiexpo> !backtrack-linux
[16:13] <MeanEYE> gumus: sorry nope... one suggestion is to make subtitles have black border so the real ones are easier to read, but other than that... nothing really
[16:13] <ActionParsnip> lhr: WHICH?
[16:13] <ruan> lhr: backtrack or bittorrent?
[16:13] <vlaar> wzrdsg in explanation of b43 driver. bcm4312 is probably named as a supported card
[16:13] <MeanEYE> ActionParsnip: bluetooth? :D
[16:13] <gumus> MeanEYE : ehehe neat trick :D
[16:13] <ActionParsnip> lhr: you were given 3 options. Yes is not an intelligent reply
[16:13] <MeanEYE> gumus: jsut an idea :P
[16:14] <gumus> MeanEye: ok then , thanks :D
[16:14] <MeanEYE> np
[16:14] <lhr> which  bittorrent applications is better or fast?
[16:14] <wzrdsg> one says bcm4312 the other bcm43112-
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> keithclark: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP
[16:14] <ruan> !torrent | lhr
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> lhr: none and all
[16:14] <Izsha> I'll brb.
[16:14] <keithclark> ActionParsnip, but I don't run xp anywhere
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> lhr: each has different abilities
[16:14] <ruan> lhr: try everything and see what works best for you.
[16:15] <ruan> !best
[16:15] <zengxin> MNM
[16:15] <ActionParsnip> keithclark: i see then https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingWithUbuntu
[16:15] <vlaar> wzrdsg it's probably the first one
[16:15] <wzrdsg> ok
[16:16] <lhr> ruan:bittorrent!!
[16:16] <keithclark> ActionParsnip, yup, done that.  Bug report time?
[16:16] <Abhijit> lhr, try tranmission and deluge and dicide yourself which works best for you
[16:16] <ruan> lhr: torrent = bittorrent
[16:16] <ActionParsnip> lhr: earlier, how you replied was the eqquvlent of:  "Do you want coffee, tea or beer?"  your reply "yes"
[16:16] <ruan> lol
[16:16] <vlaar> wzrdsg you could use this for reference: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[16:16] <ActionParsnip> lhr: torrent is the protocol, Ubuntu ships with transmission which is a fine client. Give it a go
[16:17] <wzrdsg> what was that command to see if it is enable
[16:18] <ruan> lhr: i'd suggest qbittorrent or transmission
[16:18] <lhr> I see
[16:18] <ActionParsnip> lhr: bittorrent is a torrent client and is available in Ubuntu also
[16:18] <lhr> thanks
[16:18] <vlaar> wzrdsg lshw -c network
[16:18] <Waatan> how to make a chat room?
[16:18] <ActionParsnip> !info bittorrent | lhr
[16:18] <ruan> Waatan: just join a chat room and it makes it for you
[16:18] <Waatan> join JO
[16:18] <vlaar> wzrdsg you might need to restart after installing
[16:18] <ruan> Waatan: with # of course
[16:19] <Waatan> #join JO
[16:19] <wzrdsg> still disabled will try restart
[16:19] <ruan> Waatan: /join #JO
[16:19] <DJones> Waatan: "/join channelname"
[16:19] <Waatan> thanks
[16:19] <vlaar> wzrdsg after restart try "sudo modprobe b43"
[16:19] <vlaar> wzrdsg it still isn't working of course
[16:19] <ruan> of course, nobody will be in the room until you tell people about it
[16:20] <cosmo> hmmmm have one site that uses flash video that has white flashing blocks when full screen, but it seems to be only that site, guess it's just bad coding on their site because every other flash site doesnt seem to have the same problem
[16:20] <vlaar> wzrdsg *if it stull isn't working i meant
[16:20] <ActionParsnip> cosmo: can you give a pastebin of the output of:  uname -a; lsb_release -a; echo; dpkg -l | grep swf; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash    and I can check you are ok

[16:22] <jotbe> hi all. i accidentally deleted my live-partitions with gparted and (i think) i was able to restore them using testdisk (lvm with luks/dm-crypt). problem is that i cannot activate the decrypted drives anymore using vgchange -ay. i don't have any further ideas how to solve the problem. can anyone help, please? :)
[16:23] <wzrdsg> vlaan: modprobe shows nothing
[16:24] <vlaar> wzrdsg that's normal modprobe is used to initialize the driver
[16:24] <MeanEYE> jotbe: did you write your ecryptfs keys?
[16:24] <wzrdsg> vlaar: ok lshw says network:1 disabled still
[16:25] <MeanEYE> jotbe: do you know them, to be more precise
[16:25] <bob__> I entered: sudo apt-get install nfs-kernal-server but got E: nfs-kernal-server not found
[16:26] <vlaar> wzrdsg what driver does lshw give the wireless network
[16:26] <MeanEYE> bob__: it's kernel instead of kernal :D
[16:26] <jotbe> MeanEye: i can decrypt the drive if you mean this. :)
[16:27] <bob__> MeanEye: thanks
[16:27] <MeanEYE> bob__: np :D
[16:27] <MeanEYE> jotbe: hm, what's the problem then
[16:27] <MeanEYE> ?
[16:27] <ActionParsnip> bob__: use tab to complete package names ;)
[16:27] <Izsha> ActionParsnip: Back.
[16:28] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: cool
[16:28] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Where do you want me to post the .txt?
[16:28] <Crash1hd> it seems the disk utility check seems to think it has a few bad sectors on all my drives? is there another way of checking for bad sectors?
[16:28] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: http://pastebin.com
[16:29] <wzrdsg> I think i was reading this wrong network:0 description wireless interface does not say disabled network:1 say disabled
[16:29] <ikonia> Crash1hd: why do you want to check, a tool has already told you, you have a problem
[16:29] <middle> Hey, i have a wierd issue with my Ubuntu 10.10 PC. I installed a patch for a wireless driver and now my PC crashes: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1706111 Anyone have any ideas on how to remove the patch?
[16:30] <ikonia> middle: how did you apply the patch
[16:30] <Crash1hd> ikonia, well when it says that every drive on the system 4 physical drives have bad sectors I find that suspicious
[16:30] <Izsha> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/sZi31sMG
[16:30] <Crash1hd> ikonia, specially when a few of them are less then a year old
[16:30] <jotbe> MeanEye: http://paste.ubuntu.com/579819/
[16:30] <wzrdsg> I will have to finish this later I have some things to do
[16:30] <middle> ikonia: THis is the thread that explains teh patch, it is odd because it works on my laptop but not the PC, mayube it is an issue with the PC beign 64 bit?
[16:30] <wzrdsg> thanks for the hellp
[16:31] <ikonia> Crash1hd: each disk vendor normally has a specific utility for checking "their" disk, try them

[16:31] <Duesentrieb_> hi all! i'm having trouble compiling a wifi driver module on ubuntu 10.10. make install sais "no rule to make target kernel/bounds.c".  this is with 2.6.35-27-generic. with 35-24 it worked...
[16:31] <tim167_> hello, how do I make it so that when my computer goes in stand-by, that I don't have to type my password each time to log back in?
[16:31] <vlaar> wzrdsg sure, np this might help -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[16:31] <Crash1hd> ikonia, thanks :)
[16:31] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: ok so its an RTL8191SEvB     You can use that to find guides. I suggest you use a wired connection and get fully updated. Updates fix a lot
[16:31] <Duesentrieb_> any  idea? what does the error actually imply?
[16:31] <ikonia> middle: I'm not reading a thread, if I wanted to read threads, I'd help on the forum, just a summary of how you applied the patch
[16:31] <MeanEYE> is there a way to enable mouse scroll in irssi :D
[16:31] <Duesentrieb_> what am i missing?
[16:31] <alma> Very weird problem here, ubuntu 10.10 install, worked fine, suddenly can no longer mount audio cd's.. dta cds work fine, dvd's work fine, but audio CD's completely fail to mount.. Any idea as to why?
[16:32] <MeanEYE> jotbe: am not experience with ecryptfs :/ sorry, maybe someone else can help
[16:32] <alma> Ah, and its a dual install, windows can mount audio cd's iwthout problem..
[16:32] <jotbe> MeanEye: thx :)

[16:32] <gzor> hi guys. is it possible to set up a xephyr multiseat station on the new gdm (2.30.5)? I used this howto:
[16:32] <gzor> http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Multiseat_Configuration/Xephyr
[16:32] <middle> ikonia: I downloaded compat-wireless*.tar.bz2 and a patch for the issue i was having, then used make to install it
[16:33] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: is the system a branded PC or a laptop?
[16:33] <ikonia> middle: ok, so to remove the patch you need to rebuild the module without the patch from a clean source
[16:33] <BajK> Does Kopete also support Webcam in Skype protocol or only for Yahoo?
[16:34] <davide> Hi, I am trying to change the boot order in grub2... I have edited /etc/default/grub and changed grub_default to the menu entry I want, saved the file and ran sudo update-grub.  This has not worked can anyone help?  I'm running 10.04
[16:34] <ActionParsnip> BajK: skype is a proprietary protocol so i very much doubt you will get webcam with skype
[16:34] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Toshiba laptop.  The odd thing is that I have installed Ubuntu before and it worked without issue.  I'm stumped that it doesn't work now.
[16:34] <Visuex> BajK,  Skype is finicky with sound and webcams
[16:34] <MeanEYE> BajK: am surprised it supports skype at all... since they are secretive about their protocol
[16:34] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: what model laptop?
[16:34] <middle> ikonia: I wasn't using compat-wireless.. before so is there anyway to just remove all traces of it? including the patch?
[16:35] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Satellite L505D-GS6000
[16:35] <Visuex> Skype supports a public API but that is as close as you can get to their protocol
[16:35] <ikonia> middle: you just need to remove the module it loads
[16:35] <ThinkT510> !grub2 | davide
[16:35] <ledbettj> cd ~
[16:35] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: have you got the Ubuntu fully updated using a wired connection?
[16:35] <ledbettj> oops :)
[16:36] <MeanEYE> ledbettj: /home :P
[16:36] <MeanEYE> ledbettj: want me to simulate terminal ?
[16:36] <ledbettj> haha thanks
[16:36] <BajK> MeanEYE: is there a linux skype client? officla one?
[16:36] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  I tried fully updating it after a fresh install, and tried selecting the "download updates during install." option from the CD too.  Neither helped.  ><
[16:37] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: so the OS is up to date now?
[16:37] <MeanEYE> BajK: yes, but it's old and ugly...
[16:37] <MeanEYE> BajK: they update once a year maybe
[16:37] <ThinkT510> !skype | BajK
[16:37] <middle> ikonia: So to remove the module jsut reinstall compat.. with out the patch?
[16:37] <davide> ThinkT510, but I haven't lost grub... I'm just trying to edit the boot order
[16:37] <middle> ikonia: But what if the compat is teh issue
[16:37] <MeanEYE> ThinkT510 master of factoids :D
[16:37] <MeanEYE> strikes back
[16:37] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  I erased the Ubuntu installation with a fresh Win7 installation because I was unable to get online from the Ubuntu install to look for help.
[16:38] <BluesKaj> what's the command for identifying attacned devices like video monitors and speakers etc .lshw -C IDs the pcis that the devices are connected to but that's all.
[16:38] <ikonia> middle: what do you mean what ifd compat is the issue, you've just said it IS the issue, you applied a patch and it won't work, so you rebuild it without the patch
[16:38] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: try:   sudo rmmod r8192se_pci && sleep 2 && sudo modprobe r8192se_pci
[16:38] <middle> ikonia: Rebuild what though?
[16:38] <BluesKaj> attacned=attached
[16:38] <Sna4x8> Is there any way to make the right mouse button paste instead of the middle one?
[16:38] <ThinkT510> davide: the second link helps you, the files you want to edit are under /etc/grub.d/ then issue a grub-update
[16:39] <ikonia> middle: compat
[16:39] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  What does that command do?  Or rather, would I see a result from using the LiveCD?
[16:39] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: it removes the driver module for the wireless, waits, then reloads it
[16:39] <phet> hi
[16:39] <MeanEYE> phet: hi
[16:39] <phet> is xubuntu really faster than ubuntu?
[16:39] <middle> ikonia: What i was wondering is that i was previously not using compat, so i installed compat+a patch so rebuilding compat would just remove the patch, but compat itslef may be the issue...
[16:39] <davide> ThinkT510, ok let me check it out... thanks
[16:40] <MeanEYE> phet: should be, it's lighter
[16:40] <ThinkT510> davide: np
[16:40] <ikonia> middle: a.) why did you install compat from source when it's in the ubuntu repos b.) why did you install it for no reason c.) I've told you how to remove it
[16:40] <JaymesK> Hey. I'm having trouble trying to startup an Ubuntu live USB stick. It seems to drop me to a busybox system.
[16:40] <Lint01> phet, not exactly, linux is slow not because of DA
[16:40] <bob__> MeanEYE: it worked fine when I spelled kernel correctly
[16:40] <MeanEYE> Lint01: linux is slow?
[16:40] <ActionParsnip> phet: its not much lighter these days. Lubuntu is much lighter :)
[16:40] <MeanEYE> bob__: :D ya I know...
[16:41] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  I'll be back in a few again.
[16:41] <Jasonn> JaymesK: any reason you want to go to the live CD, other than the reason of trying Ubuntu (live CD doesnt have full potential of ubuntu)???
[16:41] <JaymesK> Jasonn: Instaling it.
[16:41] <Neo_> hi all
[16:42] <Jasonn> JaymesK: does your computer have a cd drive?
[16:42] <JaymesK> Jasonn: It doesn't. I'm using a USB drive.
[16:43] <Jasonn> JaymesK: Try downloading the "Alternative CD" Its made for people who have issues such as this
[16:43] <Jasonn> !alternative | JaymesK
[16:43] <middle> ikonia: I was following a guide, that complied from source... im still not clear on how i remove the packge :S
[16:44] <ikonia> middle: do you know what compat actually builds ?
[16:44] <ikonia> middle: and a.) why did you install compat b.) what where you using before hand c.) why did you install it from source when it's in the ubuntu repos
[16:44] <phet> ActionParsnip: is Lubuntu easy to install?
[16:45] <Jasonn> phet: the same as Ubuntu, just its not supported by cannonical
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> phet: it has less of the stuff ubuntu has but its super slick. Its as easy to install as the others though
[16:45] <phet> why?
[16:45] <middle> ikonia: just had an issue with some software, and someone had posted a solution to fix the issue, it worked on my laptop, so i tried it on my PC as well, i was just following a guide.
[16:45] <phet> I need a light linux because I am virtualizing it :/
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> phet: its been requested and is soooo close :(
[16:45] <phet> maybe I will try lubuntu
[16:45] <Jasonn> phet: Its made by other people,
[16:45] <phet> is lubuntu easy to use?
[16:46] <Jasonn> phet: If you want a more-supported linux distro, try Xubuntu
[16:46] <ActionParsnip> phet: install minimal ISO then install the lxde package and you will have a super light OS which is fully supported
[16:46] <ikonia> middle: then you should (in future) try to understand what you're doing before doing it, b.) check the ubuntu repos for software beforing installing from source c.) not blindly install things
[16:46] <ActionParsnip> Jasonn: you can get an LXDE based ubuntu suported here using minimal iso and installing lxde ;)
[16:47] <dagnachewa> hi all
[16:47] <Swannie> Hi guys, I want to install mod_wsgi (sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-wsgi) but I wanted to install Python3, which I do not need, nor want - any ideas?
[16:47] <phet> sorry what is LXDE?
[16:47] <dagnachewa> anyone here knows amharic ?
[16:47] <ruan> !lxde
[16:47] <Jasonn> ActionParsnip: Hmm, true that, but since he is asking how hard something is to install, im guessing he has little to no linux knowledge
[16:47] <sven_oostenbrink> apt-get install chromium-browser gives me http://pastebin.com/UDtGRRC1   Any know current problem with the ubuntu repository servers??
[16:47] <middle> ikonia: I have learnt my lesson! The only reason i got confused here is that it worked perfectly on my laptop first... anyways lesson learnt, How does one remove the package though??
[16:47] <dagnachewa> anyone here ethiopian origin ?
[16:47] <ActionParsnip> Jasonn: true
[16:48] <MeanEYE> Swannie: let me check if py3 is required
[16:48] <ruan> !info lxcd
[16:48] <ruan> !info lxde
[16:48] <ikonia> middle: the package installas a module, remove the module
[16:48] <Jasonn> sven_oostenbrink: Try the Ubuntu Software Center
[16:48] <ActionParsnip> phet: its a desktop environment which uses a lot less resources than the default gnome which is used by ubuntu
[16:48] <phet> ActionParsnip: the one used by lubuntu?
[16:48] <sven_oostenbrink> Jasonn: which is... where? you mean by browser?
[16:48] <middle> ikonia: How do i do that though?
[16:48] <ikonia> middle: just remover it
[16:48] <Jasonn> sven_oostenbrink: what distro are you using?
[16:48] <ActionParsnip> phet: yes Lubuntu uses lxde by default, ubuntu uses gnome (not light) and KUbuntu uses KDE (not light)
[16:49] <davide> ThinkT510, you know it's as if when I make the changes and then run sudo update-grub it does not apply them.  when running that command it successfully updates /boot/grub/menu.lst.  But isn't that file inherent to grub legacy?
[16:49] <ikonia> middle: "remove" it, sorry
[16:49] <sven_oostenbrink> Jasonn: Ubuntu 10.10 (Mexico, spansih version)
[16:49] <MeanEYE> Swannie: libpython3.1 is required for instalation so you can't avoid it...
[16:49] <middle> ikonia: What so just delete the files that i complied from? or do i need to try to find where the module was installed?
[16:50] <ActionParsnip> phet: in Linux you get choice, in Windows you get the desktop with zero choice
[16:50] <phet> ActionParsnip: I am downloading lubuntu
[16:50] <ikonia> middle: no, the files you compiled from are nothing, when you do "make install" it installs the compiled object into a place you set when you built it, find it, remove it
[16:50] <phet> lets see
[16:50] <middle> ikonia: Thanks!
[16:50] <ThinkT510> davide: /boot/grub/grub.conf is used to configure grub2, but it's advised not to edit it directly
[16:51] <sven_oostenbrink> on another issue.. Anybody knows why Ubuntu 10.10 may suddenly, without any changes fail to mount *audio* cd's? data cd's and dvd's work fine, which makes it all the weirder.. Its a dual install, and windows will read audio CD's without problem..
[16:51] <Swannie> MeanEYE: OK, thanks, was wondering with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mod-wsgi/+bug/672901
[16:51] <Jasonn> sven_oostenbrink: si vas al menu de applicasiones, vas a ver en el icono tersero de abajo que dice algo como ubuntu software center si entras alli, vas a encontrar bastanted cosas que son facileas de installar - si prefieres ayuda en espanol, tipea: /join #ubuntu-es
[16:51] <ThinkT510> davide: that's why you should edit the files under /etc/grub.d/ because those files are used to generate /boot/grub/grub.conf
[16:51] <cgcardona> I am wanting to set to “All” the value of the “AllowOverride” directive applying to the directory where a copy of Magento has been installed. The only problem is i don't know what file to do that from. I tired /etc/apache2/apache2.conf but it didn't seem to work. Any insight?
[16:51] <Jasonn> sven_oostenbrink: no te devo ayudar en espanol aqui :S
[16:52] <davide> I think it's /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[16:52] <sven_oostenbrink> Jasonn: you may just help me in english, please :)
[16:52] <davide> ThinkT510, I'm not sure how to edit them...
[16:52] <llutz_> sven_oostenbrink: usually you don't mount audio-cd, play them
[16:52] <davide> brb
[16:52] <DavideN900> thinkT510 this also davide, I'm restarting
[16:52] <ActionParsnip> Davide: you dont edit grub.cfg
[16:52] <Jasonn> sven_oostenbrink: Well, you go to applications > Ubuntu Software Center > Search
[16:52] <MeanEYE> Swannie: py3 doesn't do anythign and it's not that big so I just stuck with it...
[16:53] <sven_oostenbrink> llutz_: I know , doh, but if linux cant mount the CD, it cant play it.. which is the very base of the problem
[16:53] <Swannie> MeanEYE: yeah, oh well. thanks :-)
[16:53] <MeanEYE> Swannie: np... :D
[16:53] <llutz_> sven_oostenbrink:it can, just use a player like vlc and play
[16:54] <middle> ikonia: I think i worked out that 'sudo make uninstall' from the source package directory, did it....
[16:54] <ikonia> middle: that doesn't always work, it depends on a lot of things, make sure it did work
[16:55] <middle> ikonia: Not sure how to test it though?
[16:55] <donnib> anyone using qbittorrent in ubuntu with label ?
[16:55] <ruan> donnib: label?
[16:55] <sven_oostenbrink> llutz_: no, because the CD can not be mounted, so it won't play.... As far as VLC is concerned, there is no CD...
[16:55] <donnib> i was used to use labels in uTorrent and give a label Mybooks\misc
[16:55] <ikonia> middle: do what I told you, read what it build, read where it installs it and check it's gone
[16:55] <middle> k thanks
[16:55] <Jasonn> !anyone | donnib
[16:56] <ruan> !info gmount-iso
[16:56] <ruan> !info gmount
[16:56] <donnib> ruan: yes labels, so you can give downloads labels so they get appended when download is done so you can sort stuff
[16:56] <ThinkT510> !info gmountiso | ruan
[16:56] <dagnachewa> please I am trying to contact someone from rwanda or ethiopia to spread linux , anyone here from ethiopia or rwanda ?
[16:56] <ruan> ah.. its gmount-iso in my menu >_>
[16:57] <ikonia> dagnachewa: that's nothing to do with this channel, we only do ubuntu support here
[16:57] <ruan> ubuntu ^technical support..
[16:57] <yuzodo> dagnachewa, check my PM
[16:57] <ilter> Hello. I've just installed ubuntu-netbook-10.10. Could you say how can i create a password for root?
[16:57] <MeanEYE> isn't that paradoxic? comming to linux channel and asking for people from somewhere in order to try and spread linux there?
[16:57] <ikonia> ilter: you dont need to
[16:57] <ikonia> !sudo | its_me_gb
[16:58] <ikonia> oops
[16:58] <Krabbe> ilon you cannot, you have to use sudp
[16:58] <ikonia> !sudo | ilter
[16:58] <Krabbe> *** sudo
[16:58] <ikonia> Krabbe: pardon ?
[16:58] <ruan> ilter: root is inaccessible by default
[16:58] <nit-wit> ilter, you did when you installed
[16:58] <ikonia> ah
[16:58] <ruan> ilter: sudo gives root privileges
[16:58] <Krabbe> ikonia o_O?
[16:58] <tim167_> hi, how can i play a video file with "video/x-gst-fourcc-m2v1 decoder" ???
[16:59] <ikonia> Krabbe: don't worry, I saw the mistake, I understand now
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> ilter: just use:   sudo -i
[16:59] <Dr_Willis> tim167_:  try vlc and mplayer with the proper codecs (w32codecs)
[16:59] <ilter> ikonia: Thank you, i jknow sudo. But unfortunately i can't chmod for a file by "sudo chmod ..".
[16:59] <Krabbe> ilter what file is it and where?
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> ilter: yes, thats how you would chmod a file which isnt yours
[16:59] <Dr_Willis> i use sudo chmod ... all the time..
[16:59] <ikonia> ilter: what is the exact comment you are using
[16:59] <tim167_> thanks Dr_Willis, it's a Apple video though, i'll try...
[17:00] <Krabbe> tim167_ a MOV file? VLC should play it anyways.
[17:00] <Dr_Willis> tim167_:  if vlc cant play it...  its proberly got some nasty DRM on it
[17:00] <ActionParsnip> tim167_: try gnome-mplayer :)
[17:00] <influx6> tim167_: as far apple files are concern  vlc will play it all
[17:00] <AnubArack> How can I enable the multimedia keys on my keyboard ? (mostly with Rythmbox)
[17:00] <tim167_> influx6: vls doesnt play it
[17:00] <MeanEYE> AnubArack: there should be a plugin for that
[17:00] <Dr_Willis> AnubArack:  gnome keyboard settings dialog has options to map them to specific features.
[17:01] <ActionParsnip> AnubArack: if you run:  xev   do the keys create events?
[17:01] <influx6> tim167_: 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 all
[17:01] <davide> ThinkT510, 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] <smw> Anyone know how to change max_user_watches permanently? (/proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches)
[17:01] <davide> ls
[17:01] <davide> oops
[17:01] <pentester> anyone try natty yet?
[17:01] <tim167_> influx6: thanks, i'll try
[17:01] <ikonia> smw: you can put it in systcl
[17:01] <Jasonn> !natty | pentester
[17:01] <AnubArack> lol, all of a sudden they work :|
[17:01] <smw> ikonia, where is that?
[17:02] <ikonia> smw: /etc/sysctl.conf
[17:02] <smw> ikonia, ty
[17:02] <ThinkT510> davide: yes then issue update-grub
[17:02] <Dr_Willis> theres a lot of neat things in /etc/sysctl.conf
[17:02] <ikonia> smw: or you can do an init script that updates /proc for you
[17:02] <davide> ThinkT510, so what is the purpose of /etc/default/grub?
[17:02] <influx6> tim167_: welcome
[17:02] <smw> ikonia, so what would I add?
[17:02] <Dr_Willis> davide:  read up on the grub2 config/docs/wiki pages..
[17:02] <ThinkT510> davide: not sure, never used it myself
[17:02] <ikonia> smw: you need to do a little research for the parameter name
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> davide:  /etc/default/grub  settings that the grub.d scripts can read/use
[17:03] <smw> ikonia, ty
[17:03] <KoLo> siema
[17:03] <pozzi0> ok
[17:03] <davide> Dr_Willis, I see... I guess something is getting lost there however... because the settings are not being updated
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> davide:  they dont get used untill you run 'update-grub'
[17:03] <ActionParsnip> davide: 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.
[17:04] <ActionParsnip> davide:what are you tryinig to achieve?
[17:04] <davide> Dr_Willis, I've run update-grub several times... everytime I edit... but the updates don't take
[17:04] <davide> simply change the boot order
[17:04] <davide> I would like one OS to boot by default instead of the other
[17:04] <pozzi0> i had made apt.get install pentium-builder, but my "g++ program.cpp" still doesnt work..
[17:04] <pozzi0> could someone help me?
[17:04] <ActionParsnip> davide: do you mean windows instead of Ubuntu?
[17:04] <davide> yes
[17:04] <Dr_Willis> davide:   check the grub2 docs/wiki theres a setting you uncomment. then you can seelct the default from a command line command.
[17:04] <pozzi0> i had made apt.get install pentium-builder, but my "g++ program.cpp" still doesnt work..
[17:05] <tim167_> influx6: i installed all gstreamer plugs i can find (good/bad/ubgly..) still no luck
[17:05] <ActionParsnip> davide: then why didnt you say that?
[17:05] <davide> LOL cause I don't want you to think any less of me :P
[17:05] <MeanEYE> pozzi0: is that ubuntu related?
[17:05] <Dr_Willis> davide:  making windows first is even easier..  rename /etc/grub.d/09_os-prober to be a higher #.
[17:05] <pozzi0> yes it is
[17:05] <randomuser> i 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.log
[17:05] <pozzi0> im in ubuntu
[17:05] <marenostrum> Hello. 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] <ActionParsnip> davide: no, we wouldn't think any less of you
[17:05] <KoLo>  /ame You can give me a link to the IRC
[17:05] <davide> haha
[17:05]  * KoLo You can give me a link to the IRC
[17:05] <MeanEYE> pozzi0: lol, ok, then form a question, use paste.ubuntu.com to give more detail what compiler says
[17:05] <ActionParsnip> davide: if you give details, we can help. If you withold details it makes things a tonne harder
[17:05] <ikonia> KoLo: you are in irc
[17:06] <pozzi0> iok
[17:06] <davide> I'm sorry it wasn't my intention
[17:06] <tjiggi_fo> davide, install StartupManager from Synaptic (it'll go to System >> Admin) and use that to set the order
[17:06] <davide> tjiggi_fo, I did that and set the order, and it still doesnt update
[17:06] <ThinkT510> marenostrum: i don't think we can support that here, because thats not a final release
[17:06]  * KoLo but I wanted to link to the IRC
[17:06] <ilter> ikonia:  The file is on my external hd.
[17:06] <ikonia> KoLo: you are IN irc now
[17:07] <davide> Dr_Willis, all I have in grub.d is 00_header    10_os-prober  30_memtest86+  README 05_debian_theme  20_linux      40_custom
[17:07] <ThinkT510> marenostrum: perhaps you ran into a bug to report to mozilla or #ubuntu+1
[17:07] <ikonia> ilter: what is the exact command you are usingf
[17:07] <ikonia> using
[17:07] <mongy> davide, i'd just chnage the GRUB_DEFAULT=  in /etc/default/grub to whatever the os is
[17:07] <ActionParsnip> davide:  sudomv /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober /etc/grub.d/08_os-prober; sudo update-grub
[17:07] <Dr_Willis>  move the XX_os-prober to be a first #  /etc/grub.d/09_os-prober
[17:07] <Dr_Willis> :)
[17:07] <davide> mongy, ya been trying that for hours now
[17:07] <gradio> how do i add an user to a group via terminal?
[17:07] <mongy> davide, so like, if windows is the 3rd one in the menu, it would be GRUB_DEFAULT=2
[17:07] <llutz_> gradio: sudo adduser user group
[17:07] <mongy> davide, then sudo update-grub
[17:07] <davide> mongy yup.. it just hasn't worked
[17:07] <davide> yup done that
[17:07] <ikonia> gradio: usermod
[17:07] <Dr_Willis> the  name to set 'GRUB_DEFAULT=' to - can be rather.. confuseing.
[17:07] <Iatagore> A question: Why does it seem that packages seem to be outdated on the repositories?
[17:07] <mongy> davide, odd, works for me
[17:07] <ilter> ikonia: Now,  i copied to my local hd then i can change it's permissions.
[17:07] <Iatagore> certain packages*
[17:07] <ActionParsnip> mongy: the default number doesn't respect new kernel installs
[17:07] <marenostrum> ThinkT510, I see; OK. Just asked to be sure if I need to deal with a bug report to somewhere.
[17:08] <gradio> llutz, the user already exists
[17:08] <ikonia> ilter: 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 for
[17:08] <llutz_> gradio: hopefully, else you can't add him to a group
[17:08] <davide> ActionParsnip, I don't have 30_os-prober
[17:08] <gradio> i think usermod will do the trick, thanks ikonia
[17:08] <davide> ActionParsnip, I have 10_os-prober
[17:09] <davide> just replace it with that?
[17:09] <llutz_> gradio: man adduser
[17:09] <ilter> ikonia: As i wrote before i'm using "sudo chmod 777 <file name>"
[17:09] <ThinkT510> davide: it's easier to do what Dr_Willis said regarding the grub_default
[17:09] <ikonia> ilter: you did not post that,
[17:10] <Dr_Willis> davide:  it has to be a lower # then the  10_linux one..
[17:10] <davide> oh
[17:10] <Dr_Willis> davide:  each one of those ##_scripts gerenates Part of the grub.cfg  in order...
[17:10] <Dr_Willis> davide:  logical eh? :)
[17:10] <davide> Dr_Willis, all I have in grub.d is 00_header    10_os-prober  30_memtest86+  README 05_debian_theme  20_linux      40_custom
[17:10] <davide> so idk... what do I name it as it's already lower..
[17:10] <judget> Hi 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 ICEauthority
[17:11] <Dr_Willis> davide:  so rerun sudo update-grub and see what happens. it could be your OTHER tweaking messed somthing up
[17:11] <gawker> hello any one can help me with arpspoof?
[17:11] <Dr_Willis> Mine is 09_ and windows is first here.
[17:11] <davide> so far all I've tweaked is /etc/default/grub
[17:11] <iqpi> Dr_Willis: how have you added the user?
[17:11] <marenostrum> ThinkT510, Thanks #ubuntu+1 is a good idea, in order to be sure of the problem before reporing to mozilla. Thanks.
[17:11] <Dr_Willis> iqpi:  ive not added any users. :)
[17:11] <iqpi> usp sorry man xD
[17:11] <Iatagore> What do I do when I want the newest version of software when the version on the repos is outdated?
[17:11] <ilter> ikonia: Sorry, not completely. I posted  "sudo chmod .."."
[17:12] <ThinkT510> marenostrum: no worries, that's where firefox 4 is slated for release i think
[17:12] <iqpi> judget: how have you tried to add a new user'
[17:12] <judget> yes thius was the new uer that I just added
[17:12] <davide> when I run sudo update-grub I get Searching for default file ... found: /boot/grub/default
[17:12] <Dr_Willis> davide:  after you run update-grub, you can look at the grub.cfg and see what order they are in.
[17:12] <davide> what is that file
[17:12] <marenostrum> ThinkT510,  I got it. Thanks a lot.
[17:12] <Over-Life> Hey
[17:12] <judget> it looks like it did not make a Desktop folder either
[17:13] <Dr_Willis> davide:  you ser it dident say /etc/default/grub ?
[17:13] <georgie_b> in .vimrc file "au FileType c set makeprg=gcc\ % " settings writes the output to a.out file .. how to get it to write to filename.op
[17:13] <georgie_b> ?
[17:14] <davide> Dr_Willis, when I run update-grub shouldn't it be looking for /etc/default/grub?
[17:15] <trism> georgie_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 makeprg
[17:15] <deft_n1x> hi all, how can i remove trademark images and strings from ubuntu packages?
[17:15] <ikonia> deft_n1x: you don't, they are there for a reason
[17:15] <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 into
[17:16] <trism> georgie_b: on it that case, just add -o %:r to the line
[17:17] <judget> sooo 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 ICEauthority
[17:17] <Dr_Willis> davide:  i never see it say that when i udate-grub, let me rerun it again
[17:17] <ikonia> judget: how are you adding a user
[17:17] <judget> also there is no .IECauthority ion thae new users home folder
[17:17] <pozzi0> ok when i am in the compiler and i type g++ program1.cpp
[17:17] <pozzi0> it says he cannot find
[17:17] <Dr_Willis> !find g++
[17:17] <judget> usiong system administration users app
[17:17] <pozzi0> g++ file or directory
[17:17] <ikonia> pozzi0: have you installed g++
[17:18] <Dr_Willis> pozzi0:  you did install teh built-essential  package?
[17:18] <georgie_b> @trism how to put the file in the same directory as the c file?
[17:18] <[TK]D-Fender> judget: Silly question, but did you try wiping the folder and recreating the user?
[17:18] <pozzi0> compiler said me
[17:18] <judget> yes several times
[17:18] <oneliner> so i ve installed python 3.2 but python --version still reports as 2.6.6, what am i missing?
[17:18] <pozzi0> that he missed g++
[17:18] <pozzi0> and i made
[17:18] <pozzi0> apt-get install pentium-builder
[17:18] <davide> Dr_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.d
[17:18] <pozzi0> coz he said that it will be ok
[17:18] <pozzi0> with it
[17:19] <davide> Dr_Willis, I have 10_os-prober, 20_linux...
[17:19] <judget> in the past i thought when u made a new user the home directrory structure was created automatically including a Desktop folder and others as well
[17:19] <ThinkT510> oneliner: what does python3 --version tell you?
[17:19] <a931bw> Hello, could anyone explain me diffirence between Router and switch
[17:19] <panfist> is it possible to integrate with the file browser the ability to mount files that i've dumped from partitions using dd
[17:19] <Dr_Willis> cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg  | grep BEGIN
[17:19] <ikonia> panfist: no
[17:19] <Dr_Willis> davide:  they match in mine.. see that cat command above to show their order
[17:19] <trism> georgie_b: if %:r doesn't expand to the full path, I don't know, maybe ask in #vim
[17:19] <judget> in this system it makes the home fiolder and only  the following .profile .bashrc .bash_logout
[17:20] <Jasonn> a931bw: Router splits the connection between a number of computers, while a switch determines one computer to send the connection to
[17:20] <oneliner> ThinkT510: not installed, which is not the case, maybe am not registering the install properlly?
[17:20] <Rabbitbunny> Jasonn: You got that backwards.
[17:20] <Abhijit> a931bw, ##hardware and try wikipedia and google
[17:20] <influx6> am sorry if i was away
[17:20] <llutz_> a931bw: different layers
[17:20] <davide> Dr_Willis, nope, they don't match in mine
[17:20] <judget> permission on the new user all seem correct
[17:20] <ThinkT510> oneliner: how did you install 3.2?
[17:20] <influx6> did anyone post any questions to my nick
[17:20] <Dr_Willis> davide:  you really managed to goof somthing up then it seems
[17:20] <ikonia> influx6: no
[17:20] <davide> :(
[17:21] <Jasonn> Rabbitbunny: Whoops :S
[17:21] <judget> all files and home folder is owned by that user and group[
[17:21] <influx6> ikonia: cool thansk
[17:21] <influx6> thanks*
[17:21] <davide> Dr_Willis, I think it must have been goofed from the beginning
[17:21] <pozzi0> ok, so I have installed g++with "apt.get install pentium-builder". Now, still g++ doesnt work. g++ cannot find such file or directory
[17:21] <oneliner> ThinkT510: 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.html
[17:21] <davide> Dr_Willis, that's probably why nothing is updating after I make changes
[17:21] <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_Willis> davide:  No idea. on clean installs - i just change that # and  poof windows is first.
[17:21] <saintbasil> Question: There is something wrong with my partitions because when I connect any external HDD to my computer, either a walkman or a small storage drive, I get a mount error about a bad ssdb superblock (sdb being the connected device). The devices work fine on other ubuntu computers. What is wrong with mine?
[17:21] <oneliner> repo is at 3.1, i needed 3.2
[17:21] <ikonia> pozzi0: that does not install g++
[17:21] <ikonia> pozzi0: install the package "build-essential"
[17:21] <davide> Dr_Willis, can I just re-install grub?
[17:22] <pozzi0> so atc-get install build-essential?
[17:22] <pozzi0> apt*
[17:22] <Dr_Willis> georgie_b:  you probelry need a registered nick.
[17:22] <trism> !register | georgie_b
[17:22] <pozzi0> ikonia apt-get install build-essential?
[17:22] <Dr_Willis> davide:  you can try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc' frst perhaps.. then try apt-get reinstall grub-pc perhaps.
[17:22] <davide> or maybe I just need to rename the files
[17:23] <erkan^> !android
[17:23] <dannyd> hi
[17:23] <davide> Dr_Willis, /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: grub-pc is broken or not fully installed
[17:23] <ThinkT510> oneliner: sorry i can't help, little to no experience with python
[17:23] <pozzi0> ok ikona it says me its impossibile to open /var/lib/dpkg/log
[17:24] <dannyd> i installed #! creating 4 partitions during install /home /boot and / and swap....when i turn on the computer, only when i select the harddisk from the boot menu, it loads grub and subsequently the os
[17:24] <dannyd> otherwise it gets stuck at the line just b4 it says "loading grub"
[17:24] <davide> argh I have to go eat with the wife.  I'll be back Dr_Willis thanks for your help so far.... I think next I'll look for documentation on how to completely re-install grub
[17:25] <georgie_b> @trism tried /register | georgie_b ,but it says That command doesn't work on this protocol.
[17:26] <pozzi0> can someone help me?

[17:32] <pozzi> pastebinit?

[17:36] <mechanist> if I create three ntfs partitions inside an extended partition with GpartEd, those NTFS partitions are seen by Windows?
[17:37] <linuxNewb> as far as developing goes, is it easiest if I just set up /var/www as a samba share?
[17:37] <llutz_> mechanist: should be
[17:37] <Ampelbein> grub_pro: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub could work

[17:51] <thofke> I thought I'd give 11.04 a try and installed it on a USB-stick, but when I try the unity interface it just shows the desktop-background without menu etc... Compiz et al. is not crashing. Why can't I use unity? (On a side not: I tried to turn on compiz recently on 10.10 but it didn't function, I did not mind, but I know it worked on 9.10, I believe)
[17:51] <ThinkT510> !11.04 | thofke
[17:51] <_joey> needlez: similar to firefox functionality in which you can open numerous tabs each for a seperate document
[17:51] <Abhijit> pozzi, right
[17:51] <needlez> dagni: type top and show me what the output is in pastie.org post the pastie.org link here only, and maybe i can see if something is eating up ram causeing the slow down
[17:52] <pozzi> Abhijit, it says
[17:52] <pozzi> a.out
[17:52] <pozzi> cannot find
[17:52] <Abhijit> pozzi, not a.out its ./a.out
[17:52] <pozzi> yes
[17:52] <needlez> _joey: I believe foxit reader can do that, you have to install it from the website though
[17:52] <slatan> joey; try foxit reader
[17:52] <pozzi> -/a.out
[17:52] <pozzi> but it says me
[17:52] <Abhijit> its not dash
[17:52] <Abhijit> its dot
[17:52] <yeats> !enter | pozzi
[17:52] <pozzi> a.out cannot find such namee or directory
[17:53] <_joey> needlez slatan foxit reader does it on MS Windows version, but not on that of Linux distro

 es un clon con un disco duro de 512 GB y 512 de RAM

[17:55] <Dr_Willis> prime:  check the video chipset and wireless chipset for any specific laptop. Other then those 2. Most everything else should work. However 'brand new' laptops that juat came out recently - will also be the  most lilely to have issues. watch for ones the have been out for a few months.

[17:56] <pmitros> I have two Ubuntu machines. The desktop has a nice sound system. The laptop is what I always sit at. Is there an easy way to redirect sound from the laptop to the desktop?
[17:56] <yeats> pozzi: just right click on your clock/calendar applet and select Preferences, then Time Settings
[17:56] <needlez> pozzi: you should be able to click the month,date,time thing and bring down a pull down go to edit and modify from there. That should be easy way
[17:57] <erUSUL> pmitros: afaik pulseaudio can do that... ask in #pulseaudio
[17:57] <erUSUL> stef: you can just do it
[17:57] <pozzi> yes it was easy..ubuntu make me feel like a retard
[17:57] <dougl> Ampelbein, thanks for the info
[17:57] <pmitros> erusul: Thanks. I'll read a bit more about PulseAudio, and ask questions there if something doesn't make sense.

[18:00] <stef> erUSUL: no, I have no hardware raid, so i can just change it without losing any data?
[18:00] <Ampelbein> vanguard: 'ubuntu-desktop'
[18:00] <erUSUL> stef: yes; that wont touch your data in any way
[18:01] <linuxNewb> I selected Samba on my install, and I have the smb.conf file, but I can't find the location of smb
[18:01] <stef> erUSUL: and ubuntu will boot normal? sorry for all the questions, but i just saw on google that windows had a lot of problems when chaning it.

[18:01] <vanguard> Ampelbein: thx
[18:02] <erUSUL> stef: yes; if you choose the correct disk in the bios boot order it will boot normally and all should work thnaks to using uuids
[18:02] <needlez> ThinkT510: that has nothing to do with sound for WINE... its not an issue with setting up the game, its been running fine for a few weeks. Now all a sudden its sound is gone something with ALSA i think in WINE conf. Need to know what I can modify to return sound. Since it sometimes works and other times just no sound at all.
[18:02] <khrm> I have successfully installed ubuntu again on my external hdd but after grub2 it can't boot. But when I go to grub2 commandline and give options of linux and initrd. It successfully boots. Facing no problem. But this method is quite cumbersome in front of any newbie in front of whom i want to demonstrate
[18:02] <ThinkT510> !alsa | needlez
[18:03] <stef> erUSUL: Thanks for all the information!
[18:03] <yeats> linuxNewb: what are you trying to do?
[18:03] <[TK]D-Fender> erUSUL: If he was using BIOS MB based rade that'd be FakeRAID, no?  Was there an issue of "breaking" that by changing the mode?
[18:04] <linuxNewb> yeats : restart samba, i made changes to the .conf file to add a share
[18:04] <needlez> ThinkT510: not that either. It has to do with WINE configuration and how its sound is setup to interact with Alsa or Pulse-audio not which to have set to.
[18:04] <[TK]D-Fender> erUSUL: thought I'd seen something about the controller formatting things funny
[18:04] <grub_pro> We have ubuntu installed windows. Now on switching to ubuntu I am redirected to grub. In the grub I am unable to find my kernel version. When I tried "linux /boot/vm.." it is not auto completing my version
[18:04] <mystro_> hallo
[18:04] <yeats> linuxNewb: just do 'sudo service samba restart'
[18:04] <erUSUL> [TK]D-Fender: stef said that he has no raid defined
[18:05] <BajK> what's the point of that "download updates on install" in kubuntu installer?
[18:05] <BajK> after restart I do apt-gte3 update && apt-get upgrade and still I get like 300 packages to be updated-.-
[18:05] <ThinkT510> needlez: beyond the sound tab in winecfg i have little knowledge of how to help sorry
[18:05] <linuxNewb> yeats : "samba: unrecognized servce"
[18:05] <yeats> linuxNewb: hmmm
[18:05] <needlez> kk
[18:05] <mystro_> 3oooo8 ya nas hoooy
[18:05] <stef> [TK]D-Fender: I only have a softraid with mdadm. i have no hardraid configured.
[18:05] <influx6> BajK: its apt-get not apt-get3

[18:11]  * ActionParsnip thinks encryptfs really isnt worth it
[18:12] <CAPP> encryptfs really isnt worth it?
[18:12] <CAPP> why?
[18:12] <adam__> @actionparsnip what about cryptsetup?
[18:13] <adam__> i personally use cryptsetup, its easy
[18:13] <CAPP> what can you do with cryptsetup?
[18:14] <CAPP> I want to encrypt my home folder without lossing what is in there right now
[18:14] <ActionParsnip> adam__: considering the expertise Ubuntu is aimed at, if a user gets issues and needs to recover data as many users still fail to havebackups it causes issues, especially when the community starts needing to tell them how to decrypt stuff, its just a massive headache
[18:14] <Swannie> Hello - how do I easily change the Apache user from root to something like www?
[18:16] <Ampelbein> douglarret: the command should finish pretty fast actually
[18:16] <adam__> @ActionParsnip correct, but if a user is asking for encryption, decryption methods its because they want to get their hands dirty. And they should no the consequences
[18:16] <yeats> Swannie: the apache user is www-data by default and should be set in the /etc/apache2/envvars file
[18:16] <Ampelbein> douglarret: you can check '/var/log/jockey.log'
[18:17] <Abhijit> bye gn

[18:19] <ActionParsnip> pozzi: uploading or downloading?
[18:19] <CAPP> adam: I was reading about ecryptfs, do you know if I can encrypt my home directory without loosing the information I have in there? (and yes I want to get my hands dirty hehe)
[18:19] <pozzi> downloading
[18:19] <pozzi> maybe
[18:19] <pozzi> its just bad luck
[18:19] <pozzi> dunno
[18:19] <CAPP> In windows I used to use truecrypt (system encryption) ...
[18:19] <Ampelbein> !encryption | CAPP
[18:20] <pozzi> lol it works it was just bad luck
[18:20] <pere_> saidi
[18:20] <yuzodo> lol
[18:21] <yeats> Swannie: root starts apache, but the "run user" is www-data
[18:21] <Swannie> yeats: OK, thanks
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> yeats: or you can use su to start the command as another user ;)

[18:27] <Tiuz> hi
[18:28] <MnCC> newbie question: what has x-server todo with gnome ? do i need it or can i uninstall it ?
[18:28] <khrm> x-server is the heart of gui.
[18:28] <IR7738>    http://www.mediafire.com/?fbh7c71zfc4dv5f Grotesk banda emergente chilena apoyemos http://www.grotesk.tk 
[18:28] <MnCC> gnome is sort of an overlay ?
[18:29] <ThinkT510> MnCC: gnome is the desktop environment
[18:29] <jamielaw> Hi, rfkill is detecting my wireless on/off button as a hard block preventing my wireless connection from working.  Does anyone know how to prevent this?
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> MnCC: the x server is a combination of mouse, keyboard, video hardware and monitor
[18:29] <ThinkT510> !desktop | MnCC
[18:30] <MnCC> ahh
[18:30] <grendal_prime> hey guys...i need to bag up files on arival into 30 meg zip files.
[18:30] <ActionParsnip> MnCC: yes gnome runs on the x server, then the window manager on top of that
[18:31] <grendal_prime> anyone know of a good script concocktion for that?
[18:31] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: using tar you can specify 30Mb sizes
[18:31] <MnCC> ok, i just removed some x-server packages that i thought irrelevant, like screensavers and a bunch of drivers .. just need to be sure
[18:31] <ActionParsnip> MnCC: screensavers wont affect much
[18:32] <jamielaw> Is there any way to disable rfkill completely or prevent it from checking wifi?
[18:32] <grendal_prime> ActionParsnip, im listening...how would you suggest triggering it?
[18:32] <grendal_prime> like these things are comming in really fast
[18:32] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Hey, I'm finally back.  I took the time to install 10.10 back on my machine and update it all the way.  I noticed that it would download for 60 seconds, stop for 60, and try again for 60.  But no matter what I did, my web browser wouldn't load.  Any other ideas?
[18:32] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: you can cron a task if you wish and it will run on a schedule
[18:32] <grendal_prime> at least 300 per sec..
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: when the link drops, run:   dmesg | tail    and it should give clues
[18:33] <CAPP> Do you now where I could find information for secure sending of emails (encrypted emails) inside an organization....but with the possibility of recovering those emails with a ediscovery solution (EnCase Enterprise)?
[18:33] <MnCC> im cleaning up packages .. but some are really stringed together with dependencies .. its driving me nuts
[18:34] <ThinkT510> MnCC: are you trying to save disk space?
[18:34] <khrm> CAPP i think you need openpgp
[18:34] <MnCC> no im trying to understand how things work, what i need and dont need .. less is more
[18:35] <Vilemaxim> Should I be worried that it's taking over an hour and a half to create a 2tb drive with ext4 with the installer?
[18:35] <IdleOne> How do I check what depends a package has?
[18:35] <ThinkT510> MnCC: might interest you to try out the mini-iso as a base to start from then install what you need ontop
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> Vilemaxim: how does the device connect to the system?
[18:36] <ThinkT510> !mini | MnCC
[18:36] <Vilemaxim> ActionParsnip, 3ware (raid 5, 3 - 1TB drives)
[18:36] <Vilemaxim> sata
[18:36] <MnCC> yeah, that would be great
[18:36] <ActionParsnip> Vilemaxim: well the raid data needs setting up, raid5 isn't simple.
[18:37] <ActionParsnip> MnCC: its what I use 9 times out of 10 :)
[18:37] <Note-book> For some reason, my screen flickers at times and sometimes the screen goes dim and then bright by it's self or it keeps on flickering. I'm on 10.10.
[18:37] <ActionParsnip> Note-book: is the system a branded PC or laptop?
[18:37] <Note-book>  ActionParsnip: It's a HP DV6000.
[18:37] <MnCC> i got my new thinkpad t412 and basicly i just wanna run virtualbox
[18:38] <khrm> CAPP After reading about encase. i think you can encrypt using openpgp. But to decrypt everyone should give their keys and passphrase to appropriate managing authority.
[18:38] <ThinkT510> MnCC: good laptop choice (i'm biased)
[18:38] <vanguard> how can I find how how a .pk3 file was packed? I want to change some files in it and need to repack it in the same way it is now
[18:38] <khrm> In that only managing authority have keys of all and decrypt at will message of anyone.
[18:39] <MnCC> i thought you might ;)
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> Note-book: what does: lsb_release -d; lspci | grep -i vga       output?

[18:39] <grendal_prime> ActionParsnip, is there any way to use zip compression so that the tared files have a typical zip extention(i just dont know what the customer would use to unzip them)
[18:40] <MnCC> its weird though, i step over from windows like 3 weeks ago.. and i like this so much better its ridiculous
[18:40] <katsrc> what user groups do apache and httpd belong to?
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: you can create the tar files then gzip them or zip them as you desire
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> Note-book: and what does:   lsb_release -d    output?
[18:40] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Did you want the dmesg print out?
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: sure, use a pastebin

[18:41] <MnCC> and im really looking forward to 11.x in april
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> Note-book: ok did you install the nvidia driver ok?
[18:41] <yeats> elijah: how did you install picasa?
[18:41] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  http://pastebin.com/7AQ8gmL9
[18:42] <MnCC> seems that new linux kernel with the tty grouping makes your system much faster
[18:42] <anirudhr> elijah: "dpkg -l | grep picasa"
[18:42] <ThinkT510> MnCC: me too, i use xubuntu so i won't be using unity, love xfce
[18:42] <elijah> yeats: I forget
[18:42] <Note-book> ActionParsnip, Noop this is a fresh install but even on my last install WITH the driver, same :(
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> Note-book: http://linux.aldeby.org/fix-for-openoffice-writer-bad-screen-redraw-refresh.html     you will need this workaround, due to hardware
[18:42] <yeats> elijah: if you downloaded the deb, you might need to do it with 'sudo dpkg -r picasa'
[18:42] <anirudhr> elijah: Check the package name with "dpkg -l | grep picasa"
[18:42] <elijah> anirudhr: That ran succesfully, but no output
[18:43] <Note-book> ActionParsnip, I'm following the link as we speak.
[18:43] <yeats> elijah: then you didn't install it via APT/dpkg or that would've shown something
[18:43] <anirudhr> elijah: I know this may sound obvious, sorry, but are you sure it is still installed? Are you able to run it?
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: ok the last 2 lines look interesting, see what they mean
[18:44] <Note-book> ActionParsnip, I don't have WORKAROUNDS plugin under UTILITY

[18:45] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Do you have any link on hand that shows how to disable ipv6?
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> Note-book: in ccsm ?
[18:45] <elijah> anirudhr: I saw in about > help that it was picasa for linux, I will double check though
[18:45] <MnCC> brb .. cooking ..
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: in /etc/default/grub    change:   GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"   to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash ipv6.disable=1"
[18:45] <Note-book> ActionParsnip, yes
[18:45] <yeats> elijah: what does 'locate picasa' tell you?
[18:46] <grendal_prime> ActionParsnip, i see how to split tared files...is that what you have to do?
[18:46] <Doorgh0st> excuse me
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> grendal_prime: its part of the command. You can take a huge lump of data and split it into chunks of the size you want
[18:46] <Pudabudigada> Hello, in exaile all my tracks are listed at least twice, can I fix this?
[18:46] <anirudhr> elijah: Try editing your menu entry for it and seeing what the command name is. Also try "dpkg -l | grep -i picasa", case-insensitive. :)
[18:47] <elijah> yeats: a whole bunch of stuff
[18:47] <Izsha> ActionParsnip:  Is there possibly a terminal command that will change it?  I'm horrible navigating through the file system.
[18:47] <grendal_prime> let me tell you what i want to do you may know of something that does it...i got a tone of files landing on an cifs server i want to take those files and start putting them into ziped up packages that are right arround 30 megs a piece.
[18:47] <Omie> Hi ! I need some urgent help with chntpw. rather some confirmation
[18:47] <grendal_prime> the files are really small...but there are just tones of them
[18:47] <elijah> anirudhr: I am not sure how to edit menu entry, a right click doesn't give me anything, I am on Kubuntu
[18:47] <LadyNikon> Omie: ask your question and someone will be with you
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> Izsha: run:  gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub    then changin it is like changing text in a text file, which is all it is (It's not hard in any way, don't fear your OS)
[18:48] <anirudhr> elijah: What about grep -i? Did you try that?
[18:48] <Doorgh0st> i have a question I have installed ubuntu on my desktop but ubuntu won't recognize my sound card  I have tried muliple solutions from google but nothing works
[18:48] <Omie> okay. I followed the process chntpw - u username SAM shows up menu. I press 1 to clear or 2 to change password and then Y to save. but there is no effect in windows 7
[18:49] <elijah> anirudhr: yeah, ran with no errors or output
[18:49] <Omie> do I need to do anything more ? saving these etc ?
[18:50] <elijah> I just had it running, now it won't launch anymore to verify it is the linux version

[18:57] <tuesday3> the channel is #vir and #hamradio
[18:57] <MeanEYE> tuesday3: this is ubuntu support!
[18:57] <influx6> be03099205: and then dualboot with windows or ubuntu,your choice but unless thruough vm theres no way of using mac apps on ubuntu unless u wanna port one urself
[18:57] <ThinkT510> influx6: we don't encourage that behaviour here

[18:59] <MeanEYE> be03099205: Dijkstra said: If debugging is process of removing bugs, programming must be putting them in. Humans make mistakes!
[18:59] <influx6> sudipta: but u gona have to google it to dinf out more

[19:00] <khrm> tuesday3 go to #freenode
[19:00] <be03099205> yes I know that but why do they not use the lucid code to make new systems?
[19:00] <influx6> sudipta: or if u wanna knw more just pop me a message on IM trinoxf on gmail
[19:01] <grendal_prime> ya ActionParsnip i dont think tar would work, i would have to have all the files together again to untar it(thats how it looks anyway) These guys need to open each of these up seperately.
[19:01] <be03099205> Lucid lynx is working great
what the mail id?
[19:01] <Stef> Hi when i try to mount my softraid1 it says: error mounting: wrong fs type, option, bad superblock on /dev/md0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error. how can i solve this?
[19:01] <be03099205> I hope the next LTS is working good if not I will not upgrade
[19:02] <influx6> sudipta: trinoxf@gmail.com
[19:02] <MeanEYE> be03099205: all lts versions work good... LTS is always focused on stability
i use 10.10 ....and it works great
[19:02] <be03099205> i hope that
[19:02] <be03099205> why do it works for you and not for me?
[19:02] <twistedstorm> Hello i have visited the formuhelp with my wlan issue and i can not get anywhere with it been trying for 2 days now
[19:02] <influx6> be03099205: trust me its worth the upgrade
[19:03] <twistedstorm> using ubuntu 10.10 not very knowledgeable with linux
[19:03] <be03099205> I will upgrade to 11.04 when it will be released, I think they will fix that bug until that
[19:03] <MeanEYE> twistedstorm: what's the problem?
[19:03] <influx6> be03099205: upgrade to 10.10 first or download the desktop iso,burn it n run it in live session to see if it works well before upgrading
[19:04] <twistedstorm> I downloaded the realtek linux drivers ran the lshw -c network command
[19:04] <be03099205> I have a original ubuntu 10.10 cd
[19:04] <twistedstorm> it shows the 2004 driver as installed i have the new 2008 or 10 driver
[19:04] <twistedstorm> the wireless is very unstable cuts every 2 mins
[19:05] <khrm> be03099205 When did 10.10 hangs?
[19:05] <be03099205> at login
[19:05] <influx6> be03099205: then boot into the cd and use its live session to see if it works
[19:05] <Jacruth> ey guys, when I try to run firefox it says that it's already opened, how could I force it to open?
[19:05] <be03099205> couldn't login and I waiting 30 min, nothing happens
[19:05] <be03099205> that's the reason I'm using 10.04
[19:06] <cjae> Hi, what do I have to do to make my /home partition "not busy" to be able to shrink it?
[19:06] <IdleOne> cjae: boot with a live cd and then run gparted, unmount /home and resize
[19:06] <khrm> be03099205 Did you booted successfully from cd?
[19:06] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: you want to kill it from the terminal first if it's unresponsive then launch it
[19:06] <be03099205> yes install was succesfull but not the first login
[19:07] <influx6> be03099205: u sure you set up your login details properly or hope capslock wasnt on while setting up your password and if you are talking bout the live system,the password is the same as the username which is usually "ubuntu"
[19:07] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, there is not any firefox-bin proccess
[19:07] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: type "ps aux" to see if it's running
[19:07] <Jacruth> I did "ps aux | grep firefox"
[19:07] <Jacruth> or even grep mozilla
[19:07] <Jacruth> or something like that
[19:07] <be03099205> ok, can I upgrade from 10.04 from the network now?
[19:07] <Jacruth> and there is nothing related to it
[19:07] <be03099205> would that work
[19:07] <MeanEYE> be03099205: yes
[19:07] <be03099205> ?
[19:08] <be03099205> ok! how do I upgrade
[19:08] <twistedstorm> meaneye do you have any ideas?
[19:08] <influx6> cjae: 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 utility
[19:08] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: hmm, thats odd
[19:08] <influx6> be03099205: yes you can upgrade
[19:08] <khrm> be03099205 Well first did you try it using cd?
[19:08] <cjae> IdleOne: is that the only way, is it cause when I stop kdm and sudo su and move off the /home for present working directory
[19:08] <influx6> be03099205:  go into terminal type  sudo update-maanger -d
[19:08] <cjae> IdleOne: and umount still won't work
[19:08] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: how did it crash?
[19:09] <IdleOne> cjae: unmount won't work because /home is currently in use
[19:09] <MeanEYE> be03099205: System -> Administration -> Update Manager -> Settings -> Release upgrade set to Normal releases... close and then check for updates you should see upgrade to 10.10
[19:09] <influx6> be03099205: though on normal bases it should show an upgrade button on top of your update-manager
[19:09] <MeanEYE> twistedstorm: sorry, no clue about that :/ maybe someone else
[19:09] <cjae> IdleOne: by what?
[19:09] <IdleOne> cjae: this is why I said use a live cd
[19:09] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, it didn't crash, I closed it, but I'm using Ubuntu from a pendrive
[19:10] <MarconM> who know app htop
[19:10] <MarconM> ?
[19:10] <MeanEYE> !htop
[19:10] <Stef> Hi when i try to mount my softraid1 it says: error mounting: wrong fs type, option, bad superblock on /dev/md0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error. how can i solve this?
[19:10] <cjae> IdleOne: right I was just wondering why it would still be busy
[19:10] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: is that live or persistant install to usb?
[19:10] <IdleOne> cjae: because the system is using it.
[19:10] <Jacruth> uys
[19:11] <Dr_Willis> Stef:  give the channel the exact commandline you are using to mount the thing.
[19:11] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, it's persistant
[19:11] <IdleOne> cjae: is /home on a separate partition?
[19:11] <cjae> IdleOne: yes
[19:11] <IdleOne> hmm
[19:11] <IdleOne> should be able to unmount it in that case
[19:12] <Stef> Dr_Willis: sudo mount /dev/md0 /storage   --> first i made storage dir: sudo mkdir /storage
[19:12] <cjae> IdleOne: wrong runlevel?
[19:12] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: then it should behave just like a harddisk install (if i'm right), were you using flash when you closed it?
[19:12] <IdleOne> cjae: don't know
[19:12] <IdleOne> cjae: but I don't think so.
[19:12] <Dr_Willis> Stef:  you are not giveing it enough optionx. give it a filesytem type pehaps.
[19:13] <Stef> Dr_Willis: at this moment i'm looking for errors on the array, is there a way to stop that job ?
[19:14] <Jacruth> perhaps ThinkT510 I think yes
[19:14] <Dr_Willis> Stef:  no idea - i dont use raids
[19:14] <Izsha> Hi there.  I have installed Ubuntu on my laptop previously but went back to Win7 due to program compatibility issues.  I'm back to it, and everything is working fine except for my wireless.  I am able to connect to my wireless, I can ping the router, but I can do no browsing.  Pinging google.com doesn't work either.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  I've been trying to get this to work for...
[19:14] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: can you check to see if flash isn't running, if it is kill it
[19:14] <Izsha> ...hours.  D:
[19:14] <cjae> I thought that because when you have a separate home part, your prefences for applications are stored in hidden files on /home, but being that I am using things as su can't see how unless it because of sudo
[19:14] <cjae> IdleOne: I thought that because when you have a separate home part, your prefences for applications are stored in hidden files on /home, but being that I am using things as su can't see how unless it because of sudo
[19:15] <Jacruth> ubuntu    6664  0.0  0.0   5176   760 pts/1    S+   19:14   0:00 grep --color=auto flash
[19:15] <Dr_Willis> Izsha:  if you cant ping google.com but you can ping the ip# of google.com = thats a sign of a dns server issue.
[19:15] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, it is running, but It seems to ... be... odd
[19:15] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: can you pastebin the output of ps aux
[19:15] <Jacruth> it has a new signal each time I...
[19:15] <Dr_Willis> cjae:  hidden .files are not really hidden,. they just get 'ignrored; by most apps.
[19:16] <Izsha> Dr_Willis:  So I should reboot back to 10.10 and try pinging google's IP?
[19:16] <Jacruth> I cant open firefox to past it, ThinkT510
[19:16] <Jacruth> :\
[19:16] <ThinkT510> !pastbin
[19:16] <ThinkT510> !pastebin
[19:16] <Stef> Dr_Willis: adding -t etx4 won't work
[19:16] <cjae> Dr_Willis: right
[19:16] <Dr_Willis> Izsha:  that would be a good test. and check the dns servers. you caould set it to use a dns server of 8.8.8.8 *(googles dns server) and see if it then works.
[19:16] <ThinkT510> Jackruth: you can pastebin from terminal
[19:17] <Dr_Willis> Stef:  i dont use raids. so no other ideas other then to say that erroe messege was teh generic 'mount failed try some extra options' type error message.
[19:17] <Jacruth> fpaste?
[19:17] <Dr_Willis> Night all
[19:17] <Izsha> Dr_Willis:  What is 8.8.8.8?  I am able to ping that.
[19:17] <ThinkT510> !pastebinit | Jacruth
[19:17] <Jacruth> Izsha, is the google dns
[19:17] <sveinse> How can I make network manager to give me an autoconfigured ip (avahi/ipv4ll) if and only if dhcp has failed? Doing to "dhclient eth0" manually actually successfully sets up a eth0:avahi network, but NM doesn't
[19:17] <Stef> Dr_Willis: ok but thanks ;)
[19:17] <Jacruth> Izsha, google dns server
[19:17] <Diverdude> If i have a png image, is there any way i can see what the resolution in dpi is in the image?
[19:18] <cjae> IdleOne: thats what it is, I would need to be logged in as root
[19:18] <Izsha> Jacruth:  So then that means I have a DNS problem?
[19:18] <cjae> damn sudo
[19:18] <Jacruth> Izsha, if you are able, why should you have a problem?
[19:18] <cjae> root passwd?
[19:18] <grendal_prime> jesus..is there nothing that monitors dir size that i can use to trigger an event?
[19:18] <grendal_prime> its amazing there is nothing that does this based on event
[19:18] <ThinkT510> MnCC: welcome back
[19:18] <Izsha> Jacruth:  I am not sure.  I am baffled that I am able to browse perfectly on Win7 and not on 10.10
[19:18] <MnCC> so i have gnome on top of x-server , where does metacity come in ?
[19:18] <grendal_prime> i cant figer how how to pull that info from inotify
[19:19] <MnCC> Thx, had to eat something
[19:19] <jtniehof> Diverdude: pngcheck -v png_file.png
[19:19] <Jacruth> what kind of error Izsha ?
[19:19] <Jacruth> wait ThinkT510, it is hard to do it
[19:19] <Jacruth> :\
[19:19] <ThinkT510> MnCC: metacity is the window manager for gnome
[19:19] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: np
[19:19] <Izsha> Jacruth:  I am able to connect to my wireless (it shows I am connected and displays that I have been assigned an IP address, etc.), but whenever I try to open my browser, nothing will open.  :/
[19:20] <MnCC> So i have gnome on metacity on x-server ?
[19:20] <Jacruth> Izsha, try to open the browser using the terminal
[19:20] <ThinkT510> MnCC: metacity on gnome on x11
[19:20] <Jacruth> Izsha, the terminal should display some error
[19:20] <MnCC> ahh..
[19:20] <sveinse> Can I make network manager check for dhcp IP and if not, revert to avahi assigned ip?
[19:21] <KramB> What program can I use that is like Team Viewer so I can help someone with their computer?  It has to work on both Linux and Windows.
[19:21] <Izsha> Jacruth:  Sorry, I didn't mean to say that the browser won't open, the problem is that none of the pages will load in the browser.  google.com, ubuntu.com, etc.  I am able to open my router's admin page only.
[19:21] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, http://pastebin.com/X2Cwh3YE
[19:21] <ThinkT510> KramB: team viewer is available for ubuntu
[19:21] <yuzodo> KramB, teamviewer lol, it works
[19:21] <khrm> ssh
[19:21] <KramB> Oh it does. :L
[19:21] <KramB> I knew that.
[19:21] <KramB> Thanks.
[19:21] <khrm> KramB use ssh
[19:21] <KramB> No gracias.
[19:21] <Jacruth> Izsha, let me think... can you do a ping?
[19:21] <Diverdude> jtannenbaum, This is the output: http://pastebin.com/A0pMTvQc    so the dpi is 150 ?
[19:22] <Jacruth> No gracias xD
[19:22] <KramB> She's too dumb to do that.
[19:22] <Izsha> Jacruth:  I am unable to ping any outside websites, but I can ping my router and 8.8.8.8
[19:22] <miloss> hi all people :)
[19:22] <yuzodo> hey miloss
[19:22] <opooto> how are ATI drivers nowadays for ubutnu? i'm lookign at a new graphics card, and I have always used nvidia
[19:23] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: well flash doesn't appear to be running in there
[19:23] <opooto> i remember having problems with mtrrs and high memory systems with the FGLRX drivers
[19:23] <Jacruth> you could deactivate the dns, but I think it is not the problem Izsha
[19:23] <miloss> hawe some one from serbia hear ?
[19:23] <Jacruth> are you sure ThinkT510 ?
[19:23] <FarkingBish> !serbian | miloss
[19:23] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, http://pastebin.com/XfmDx8Ne
[19:23] <BluesKaj> opooto, nvidia still works well here, 7600gt and 6400gs work fine on my linux machines
[19:23] <rcmaehl> Can I use an SD card as swap?
[19:24] <BluesKaj> err 8400gs
[19:24] <opooto> BluesKaj, yup yup, but the graphics are going flaky on my 9600
[19:24] <BluesKaj> opooto, which driver
[19:24] <opooto> BluesKaj, it loosk like the ATI chips are ~$25 cheaper for similar performance
[19:24] <jtniehof> Diverdude: yes, 150dpi for that example
[19:24] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: as far as i can tell, i don't think that is the flash plugin, it's likely unrelated
[19:24] <opooto> BluesKaj, it's a hardware issue :)
[19:24] <sveinse> rcmaehl: Yes you can, but its very slow, so I can't see why you would
[19:24] <opooto> this card has "been through a lot"
[19:24] <BluesKaj> opooto, are you sure ?
[19:24] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, I think It could be because of that: each time I do ps aux, flash have a new PID
[19:25] <rcmaehl> sveinse: b/c it's going bad. The read and write speeds fluctuate wildly which shouldn't happen on flash media so I want to use what I can
[19:25] <opooto> BluesKaj, yup, sometimes the system won't post with it in, sometimes it overheats, i'm guessing a cap blew somewhere. it was a free card, so i'm not too sad
[19:25] <Jacruth> Izsha, try deactivating it
[19:25] <Izsha> Jacruth:  How would I go about doing that?
[19:26] <sveinse> rcmaehl: sorry, "b/c" ?
[19:26] <BluesKaj> opooto, ok, but nvidia is still the most reliable grfx in (k)ubuntu from what i've seen so far
[19:26] <rcmaehl> b/c = because
[19:26] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: sorry i can't help you further, you could kill -9 it but without knowing exactly what it is i don't know what effect it would have, it may respawn too
[19:27] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, ill do it
[19:27] <seangrove> Hey all, I can't quite seem to get the sudoers file right
[19:27] <seangrove> I have this line in it:
[19:27] <seangrove> %soto   dogen = NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/nginx
[19:27] <AbuBadr> fan is running in highest speed all the time in ubuntu!! how to reduce it's speed?
[19:27] <influx6> seangrove:
[19:27] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: on what?
[19:27] <sveinse> rcmaehl: I've been working with sd-cards in linux embedded settings, and I see some cards/vendors which have great throughput (which is the "Class" rating) but extremely varying r/w latecies.
[19:27] <seangrove> From my understanding, it should say: Inside the soto group the user dogen can run /usr/sbin/nginx with no password
[19:27] <Jacruth> !killall
[19:28] <seangrove> err, can run `sudo /usr/sbin/nginx`
[19:28] <Jacruth> ThinkT510, do you know any way to kill process younger than a time?
[19:28] <sveinse> rcmaehl: Especially Kingston as they don't produce their own cards (they are rebranded)
[19:28] <Jacruth> for example, killall -y
[19:28] <rcmaehl> sveinse: the old benchmark showed very little fluctuation
[19:28] <Jacruth> but I dont know how to use killall -y
[19:28] <AbuBadr> rcmaehl,  my laptop fujitsu siemens amilo sa 3650
[19:28] <ThinkT510> Jacruth: sorry, no
[19:28] <thoht> hi
[19:28] <sveinse> rcmaehl: Tried bonnie++ ?
[19:28] <thoht> i ve an issue when removing a package: http://pastebin.com/n973pVk5
[19:28] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: sudo modprobe
[19:29] <seangrove> But that is absolutely not what's happening here... I keep getting prompted for my password when trying to run `sudo nginx -t` as dogen
[19:29] <thoht> how can i force the purge/remove of this package (hpasm) ?
[19:29] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: then sudo apt-get install fancontrol
[19:29] <phonex01> hello  ! !!
[19:29] <phonex01> from jordan to everyone good night
[19:29] <phonex01> fancontrol ? what is this //?
[19:29] <seangrove> influx6: did you have some idea?
[19:29] <thedangler> installed ps3mediaserver and it works but the GUI wont launch. Everything seems to be working fine otherwise. anyone know ow to get this working?
[19:29] <seangrove> Or does anyone have a better place I should ask help for in?
[19:29] <ThinkT510> MnCC: you still there? enjoying linux and the learning experience?
[19:29] <dustin> hello everyone
[19:30] <MnCC> Yup, removing packages as we speak
[19:30] <DannyButterman> Hi there
[19:30] <dustin> how you doing danny
[19:30] <MnCC> Weird though, wanted to remove a Thai language package, but had dependencies all over .. so i let be
[19:30] <AbuBadr> rcmaehl, fancontrol is already the newest version.
[19:30] <AbuBadr> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[19:31] <sveinse> Noone here which known Network Manager?
[19:31] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: run sudo fancontrol
[19:31] <sveinse> *knows
[19:31] <DannyButterman> How can I configure a persistent "search" and "domain" setting in resolv.conf ? each time I assign them, it gets back to the former setting upon reboot
[19:31] <AbuBadr> rcmaehl, Loading configuration from /etc/fancontrol ...
[19:31] <AbuBadr> Error: Can't read configuration file
[19:31] <rcmaehl> --help
[19:32] <MnCC> ThinkT510, you know a good SHA/MD5/SFV checker with small footprint ?
[19:32] <dgtl> DannyButterman, that is because is use DHCP
[19:32] <BluesKaj> seangrove, drop the % at the front of that line , it shourld read, username ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/whateverapp,
[19:32] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: sudo pwmconfig
[19:32] <dgtl> DannyButterman, one solution would be to set resolve.conf read-only per flag
[19:32] <ThinkT510> !md5 | MnCC
[19:32] <seangrove> BluesKaj: Ah, ok, I'll try that
[19:33] <elijah> how can I remove menu entries for programs that don't exist anymore (Kubuntu)?
[19:33] <seangrove> BluesKaj: what does the ALL= there stand for then?
[19:33] <MnCC> Think510: i need one that does all, sha/md5/sfv
[19:34] <Pumpkin-> DannyButterman: you can define custom scripts for what to do when you dhcp up an address in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/. I imagine you can setup something there to apply persistent settings to resolv.conf
[19:34] <AbuBadr> rcmaehl, /usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed
[19:34] <ThinkT510> MnCC: sorry, don't know any
[19:34] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: O_O
[19:34] <AbuBadr> rcmaehl, :)  what?
[19:34] <DannyButterman> dgt1: what do you mean ? read only "per flag" ? I have another box running on 9.04 that also uses dhcp and there's no such problem
[19:34] <Malkavian_> elijah: right click on KMenu and select edit applications??
[19:34] <DannyButterman> Pumpkin: ok thank you, I check that at once
[19:34] <phonex01> does anyone have an idea how can i connect internet throught Satellite ?  because we are about making evolution and the Gov may disconnect Internet ? need help here ?
[19:34] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: it's not seeing your fan
[19:35] <yuzodo> prepare for spam guys
[19:35] <BluesKaj> seangrove, I think for all the /usr/bin apps listed in the line , you can add several
[19:35] <seangrove> BluesKaj: yeah, that's what the manual says
[19:35] <MnCC> ThinkT510: np, ill start searching
[19:35] <seangrove> Looks like it's working - thank you!
[19:35] <AbuBadr> rcmaehl, is there a solution or just went back to windows 7 :(
[19:35] <rcmaehl> AbuBadr: you can try sudo sensors-detect then sudo pwnconfig
[19:36] <dgtl> DannyButterman, immutable flag, chown +i
[19:37] <phonex01> does anyone have an idea how can i connect internet throught Satellite ?  because we are about making evolution and the Gov may disconnect Internet ?
[19:37] <dgtl> DannyButterman, sorry, chmod
[19:37] <dgtl> is what i meant
[19:37] <dgtl> aehm chattr
[19:37] <dgtl> lol
[19:37] <DannyButterman> dgt1: never mind, I understood ;)
[19:38] <XLV> phonex01, its expensive, esp if you want to be totally untied of any landline
[19:38] <phonex01> i will pay whatever
[19:38] <Jacruth> guys, could you find me a "killall -y " use example? I can't open my firefox
[19:38] <phonex01> i dont care about money
[19:38] <yuzodo> that's 4 connections from the same IP
[19:38] <phonex01> just for 1 month
[19:39] <phonex01> i need it for 1 month
[19:39] <XLV> phonex01, whatever being 2K$ for the initial hardware? and then 100$/month for 512Kbit/s ( or somewhere there, i dont remember exact prices atm )?
[19:39] <cjae> ok so I enabled root account, dropped to console, logged in as root in /root and still cannot umount /home wtfudge?
[19:39] <Jacruth> guys, could you find me a "killall -y " use example? I can't open my firefox
[19:39] <phonex01> they provide me with UP streamer ?
[19:39] <cjae> what is command to check users logged in?
[19:40] <XLV> phonex01, yes, if you pay
[19:40] <phonex01> who provide that service ?
[19:40] <Jacruth> cjae, perhaps it is who
[19:40] <Pumpkin-> phonex01: I imagine you might struggle to actually get the equipment into the country though, especially now.
[19:40] <phonex01> do you have numbers ? can they installed it in Jordan ?
[19:40] <Jacruth> cjae, "who"
[19:40] <XLV> ah, that too
[19:40] <phonex01> man , no problem wit this
[19:40] <phonex01> i can get it inside the country
[19:41] <dgtl> cjae, that doesnt depent on users logged in, do an 'lsof | grep /home' and see what is accessing /home
[19:41] <XLV> phonex01, beware that even trying to smuggle it in atm the way things are there atm, you may be treated as a "terrorist" from your regime
[19:41] <dgtl> cjae, kill what is accessing home and umount it afterwards
[19:41] <phonex01> I'm already a terrrorsit in my country dictionary
[19:41] <phonex01> so nothing new !
[19:42] <cjae> Jacruth: ok thanks
[19:42] <cjae> dgtl: thanks will ry

[19:42] <Jacruth> cjae, dgtl wrote something useful
[19:42] <DannyButterman> I finally found that modifying /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf is the best way to achieve what I want
[19:42] <esing123> hi
[19:42] <AbuBadr> rcmaehl,  the rest is    No

[19:46] <phonex01> XLV i called them
[19:46] <esing123> I made an exception for youtube cookies
[19:46] <phonex01> it is a company in UAE
[19:47] <phonex01> they said it cost 800 USD for hardware
[19:47] <phonex01> and 100 USD monthly for 1024 line
[19:47] <AbuBadr> how to get an apple app store ID without having a credit card??
[19:48] <XLV> phonex01, well, there are two versions, one uses satellite for upstream too, the other uses some landline ( even pstn ) to send upstream and receive ACKs
[19:48] <XLV> phonex01, the former is much pricier
[19:48] <phonex01> they said with upstreamer
[19:48] <XLV> ok then
[19:48] <XLV> i havent checked prices for quite a while, seems they dropped
[19:49] <phonex01> y i know they used landline to send data because it is not easy to transmit a signal through satellite
[19:49] <illmortal> anyone know if there's a cairo-dock channel? Cairo dock keeps centering itself between both my monitors... like it's spanning across. lol <_<;
[19:49] <phonex01> but they said with upstreamer
[19:49] <coz_> illmortal,   there is   #cairo-dockj
[19:49] <dustin> hmm

[19:49] <illmortal> thanks coz_
[19:49] <burhan> i am new here
[19:49] <dustin> anyone of you folks know where to find books on unbuntu that teach you how to use it etc?
[19:50] <ThinkT510> !manual | dustin
[19:50] <dustin> prefer free ones or if someone has a bunch they dont use
[19:50] <illmortal> hmm... guess cairo-dock channel died
[19:50] <coz_> illmortal,   sorry th at is    #cairo-dock   withouth the j
[19:50] <burhan> so i dont know what that is properiate
[19:50] <dustin> thanks think

[19:51] <MeanEYE> burhan: there are some of those IDEs that can make crossplatform stuff... I think that can work
[19:51] <burhan> does anyone know how to develop a mobile java program for nokia samsung etc.
[19:51] <Benkinooby> oops

[19:55] <l0b> Hey guys. I want to build a new machine on which to install Ubuntu.  Are there any hardware considerations I should keep in mind?  I'll probably have an AMD chip and a Gigabyte 4350 card
[19:55] <ThinkT510> !hlc | l0b
[19:56] <ThinkT510> !hcl | l0b
[19:56] <blackbird_> How can I increase the disk size of my Oracle VM VirtualBox running XP?
[19:56] <l0b> Ah, thanks man : )
[19:56] <ThinkT510> np
[19:56] <Jacruth> !wl monkeytown
[19:57] <l0b> Although... that's all prebuilt? I was hoping to save money by buying from newegg and assembling myself
[19:58] <l0b> Huh. This is kind of a bummer. I knew that Linux had some hardware dependencies, but didn't realize it was this bad : (
[19:59] <ThinkT510> l0b: the biggest things to consider are graphics, wifi
[20:00] <_Neytiri_> seclfe
[20:00] <_Neytiri_> whops
[20:00] <l0b> No wonder the "Year of Linux" has never arrived.  The OS is nowhere near as portable as Windows
[20:00] <dustin> heh
[20:00] <raven> hi
[20:00] <dustin> hello raven
[20:01] <raven> evolution comes up with first-start-config again - how to rescue?
[20:01] <ThinkT510> l0b: perhaps if you told us your preferences we could tell you if it is supported
[20:01] <dustin> okay anyone help me load a file ?
[20:01] <dustin> if they got time for a noob
[20:01] <dustin> or find the self installer for it?
[20:02] <khrm> What file?
[20:02] <l0b> Fair enough.  I'd like to buy parts on newegg, assemble the machine myself and install Ubuntu 10.10 on it.
[20:02] <l0b> Is there a way I can verify whether a particular GPU is supported by Ubuntu?
[20:02] <ThinkT510> l0b: what graphics and wifi are you considering?
[20:03] <raven> evolution comes up with first-start-config again - how to rescue?
[20:03] <ThinkT510> l0b: ati and nvidia have proprietry drivers available
[20:03] <l0b> I'm considering this GPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125251
[20:04] <dustin> well i downloaded quake2 linux and ive extracted the folder
[20:04] <broyles> .p
[20:04] <ThinkT510> l0b: that should be supported via flgrx
[20:04] <dustin> but dont know where to find the run application or run it through the terminal.
[20:04] <broyles> l0b: with it being an ati there should be proprietry drivers for it
[20:05] <DJones> w 13
[20:05] <l0b> Proprietary drivers from ATI or from Ubuntu foundation?
[20:05] <LarsN> how would I go about replacing the icon on the gnome menu?
[20:05] <pozzi> is it possible to make a launcher that execute a software each tipe i start ubuntu?
[20:05] <Gnea> okay, looks like I'm not the only one with this flash red-tint problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1699351
[20:06] <ThinkT510> l0b: from ati
[20:06] <raven> evolution comes up with first-start-config again - how to rescue?
[20:06] <ThinkT510> l0b: ubuntu trys to encourage use of free software drivers
[20:06] <pozzi> is it possible to create a launcher that execute a software each time ubuntu starts?
[20:06] <broyles> raven: what problems have you had before it came up
[20:07] <broyles> pozzi: go into system menu and the preferences, then session, you can add startup items in there
[20:07] <raven> broyles, no problems
[20:07] <ThinkT510> l0b: as regards wifi, intel is likely the best to use
[20:07] <l0b> Honest question - how can a software driver not be free?  I mean, you buy the hardware and the driver's included in the price
[20:07] <l0b> Or do you mean free as in open source?
[20:07] <broyles> l0b: free as in freedom, not as in beer :P
[20:08] <ThinkT510> l0b: yeah, open source
[20:08] <broyles> raven: has evolution been working ok for a while? (have you done any updates etc?)
[20:08] <pozzi> broyles,  it asks me a startup command..what does it mean?
[20:08] <Pumpkin-> the other form of not-free is possible as well. Check out "http://www.turboprint.info/"
[20:09] <raven> broyles, worked fine, no manual updates
[20:09] <l0b> For wireless I was thinking of some Linksys card, but I'll try to find something from Intel
[20:09] <neiz> l0b: I use a radeon 5770 in 10.10 with proprietary drivers and am able to run wow, sc2, etc all at great quality
[20:09] <bikcmp> Hi all, what's the best way to sync my iPhone 4 to my ubuntu desktop?
[20:09] <bikcmp> i'm pretty sure it's 10.10.
[20:09] <broyles> pozzi: thats the thing you want to get auto started
[20:09] <Wot_Wot> pozzi, System >> Preferences >> Startup Applications
[20:09] <l0b> neiz - Do you use WINE to run those games?
[20:09] <neiz> l0b: yes
[20:09] <ThinkT510> !iphone | bikcmp
[20:09] <l0b> Sounds cool
[20:10] <pozzi> yes ok Wot_Wot , here i choose what i want to start. then he asks me "startup command". what do i put here?
[20:10] <broyles> raven: mm one thing to try is closing the wizard and trying to launch from a terminal window, see if there is any errors
[20:10] <misiek27> jest ktoś z polski
[20:10] <l0b> When new versions of Ubuntu come out, is it up to the hardware vendors to update their drivers or does Ubuntu try to maintain backwards compatibility of some sort?
[20:10] <Wot_Wot> pozzi, presumably the name of the program you are trying to start, usually found in /usr/bin/
[20:10] <ThinkT510> !pl | misiek27
[20:11] <raven> broyles, no error messages
[20:11] <broyles> raven: does it launch the wizard again?
[20:11] <misiek27> oki
[20:11] <raven> broyles, yes
[20:11] <pozzi> k ty
[20:11] <jgcampbell300> hello .. 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 things
[20:12] <madsj> is 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-Fender> l0b: 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] <broyles> raven: thats strange.. does running "ls ~.evolution/mail/local/Inbox.sbd/" from a terminal work?
[20:13] <raven> broyles, file not found
[20:13] <ThinkT510> "ls ~/.evolution/mail/local/Inbox.sbd/"
[20:13] <th0r> raven: ~/......
[20:13] <broyles> madsj: check the permissions on .ssh and .ssh/id_rsa(or id_dsa) , it should be 700 for .ssh and 600 for the id_rsa(or id_dsa)
[20:14] <raven> broyles, no results
[20:14] <broyles> whoops i missed a / ;)
[20:15] <jgcampbell300> anyone ?
[20:15] <khrm> dustin first type this: sudo pwd>/etc/quake2.conf             & then: chmod 644 /etc/quake2.conf
[20:15] <broyles> raven: sounds like your evolution dir has gone for some reason.... has anything else on your system gone back to defaults by any chance? does ls ~/.evolution work?
[20:15] <mweichert> anyone know of a volume manager or filesystem with good copy-on-write snapshot support?
[20:16] <david> Would anyone recommend OpenLDAP or perhaps something else to replace a windows domain?
[20:16] <khrm> dustin : Also you have to extract file here in /usr/local/games
[20:16] <coz_> david,  if no one here can answer try ##linux  channel   although they are slower in there
[20:17] <david> coz_: thx, noted
[20:17] <raven> broyles, .evolution is there
[20:17] <broyles> raven: does it contain anything?
[20:18] <raven> broyles, yes several things
[20:18] <broyles> raven: thats good, ;)
[20:18] <khrm> dustin : for running there must be file called quake2 in extracted directory
[20:19] <broyles> raven: only thing I can suggest (unless any one has any ideas) is to follow the wizard putting in the same settings as you did before.. it may pick up your existing mail from those dirs
[20:19] <khrm> dustin : Are you there?
[20:19] <Dyresen> Anyone know when postgres 9 will be included in ubuntu?
[20:19] <raven> i hope so

[20:20] <gameaccount> Hi. My grub2 does not detect an install of win98 on my hard drive. How do I add this to the menu?
[20:21] <Alex_> gameaccount: Go to grub's homepage, they got allkinds of tutorials, inclooding your problem, wait, ill put link
[20:22] <madsj> broyles: I just have identity and identity.pub, but I guess they're the same?
[20:22] <broyles> madsj: yea they are
[20:22] <madsj> identity = dsa private key
[20:22] <Alex_> gameaccount: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Chain_002dloading
[20:22] <donnib> i get a lock icon on folders in my automounted NFS share, why is that ?
[20:22] <broyles> madsj: try this chmod 700 .ssh ; chmod 600 .ssh/identity
[20:22] <donnib> i have added the share in fstab and at the end i have rw
[20:22] <Dyresen> madsj: you asked about postgres 9?
[20:23] <Osmodivs> I just can't find a way to convert my videos, I have tried Arista but it does not have all codecs, Ogg convertor neither does<. How do I convert my Ogg files to WMV
[20:23] <donnib> the nfs share has open for eveything so no restrictions
[20:23] <broyles> donnib: try adding vers=3 to the mount options
[20:23] <Osmodivs> Or 3gp
[20:23] <donnib> broyles: thx, will try
[20:23] <madsj> Dyresen: no
[20:24] <madsj> broyles: is already the case
[20:24] <gameaccount> Alex_:  thanks. But does this also work on grub2 ?
[20:24] <Dyresen> oki
[20:24] <broyles> madsj: do you have the same ownership on the server and client, with the same uid (not name)
[20:24] <seangrove> Alright, I've gone to the other extreme - somehow I don't need to enter my password at all for sudoers
[20:24] <Alex_> gameaccount: sudo nano /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[20:24] <Bipul`> i dont understand why divx movies are not working in ubuntu
[20:25] <Alex_> gameaccount: But if you type grub-update, it will zero out
[20:25] <Alex_> the modified grub.cfg
[20:25] <broyles> madsj: sorry got people mixed up
[20:26] <gameaccount> Alex_:  I have ubuntu 10.04 so I do not know if I have a grub.cfg
[20:26] <broyles> madsj: try sshing wtih -vv
[20:26] <Bipul`> can any one help me
[20:26] <Alex_> gameaccount: Just type
[20:26] <Alex_> the modified grub.cfg
[20:26] <Alex_> gameaccount: sudo nano /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[20:26] <madsj> broyles: the ownership never changed, so that's the weird thing
[20:26] <Bipul`> i can not able to see videos  divx
[20:27] <coz_> Bipul`,   sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[20:27] <broyles> madsj: sorry that was a answer to someone else :)
[20:27] <donnib> same problem, still have the lock icon on the folders
[20:27] <donnib> :(
[20:27] <broyles> donnib: do you have the same ownership on the server and client, with the same uid (not name)
[20:27] <broyles> madsj: try using ssh with -v it will tell u if it trys to use the key ;)
[20:27] <donnib> broyles:not sure what u mean by ownership
[20:27] <gameaccount> ^
[20:28] <Bipul`> coz_, E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[20:28] <Bipul`> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[20:28] <broyles> donnib: if you do ls -la you can see who owns the files
[20:28] <broyles> Bipul`: close down any package managers you have loaded liek the updater ;)
[20:28] <coz_> Bipul`,  close synaptic package manager
[20:28] <Bipul`> every thing is closed
[20:28] <coz_> Bipul`,  or in synapitc  hit Search and type in  ubuntu restricted extras
[20:28] <Osmodivs> How do you convert OGG files to WMV?
[20:29] <coz_> Osmodivs,  ffmpeg
[20:29] <madsj> broyles: thanks for the -v hint; the file names are required to be id_dsa and id_dsa.pub (just make them symlinks of identity and identity.pub)
[20:29] <coz_> Osmodivs,    ffmpeg -i  nameof.ogg  nameof.wmv
[20:29] <broyles> donnib: madsj glad to hear that ;) and not a problem :D
[20:29] <Osmodivs> coz_ Thx, I'll try that
[20:30] <broyles> i am really tempted to upgrade to natty... :P
[20:30] <yuzodo> broyles, ME TOO lol
[20:31] <broyles> think i will do a backup first tho ;)
[20:31] <yuzodo> lol yeah
[20:31] <l0b> Hurr. At this point it seems if I want Ubuntu on a laptop it'll be easier to buy a Macbook and use Bootcamp : )
[20:31] <broyles> just got the machine configured how I like :D
[20:31] <mustardseed> hello, i have recently installed ubuntu 10.10 on a rather old machine; attached a brand new USB 802.11 n dongle which was a pain to install and have recognized by the system; issue is, the machine is really slow; am new to ubuntu, only tried fedora before, was not impressed with its management of usb and wifi either; many thanks for your help
[20:31] <yuzodo> l0b, yeah that's true
[20:32] <ThinkT510> l0b: thinkpads have been absolutely fantastic for me with linux
[20:32] <yuzodo> I second that
[20:32] <l0b> Cool, checking out Lenovo's site. Thanks ThinkT510
[20:32] <ThinkT510> np
[20:32] <broyles> l0b: i would replace macos on my macbook with ubuntu, but I still need photoshop (the gimp just does not cut it :( )
[20:33] <broyles> yuzodo: mmm can I be bothered waiting for the backup :P........
[20:33] <yuzodo> lol broyles
[20:34] <broyles> yuzodo: if i backup my home dir, thats 95% of the settings :P
[20:34] <yuzodo> hehe
[20:34] <broyles> yuzodo: and make a note of the the extra themes I have installed it should be ok.....
[20:34] <yuzodo> yeah
[20:34] <yuzodo> i write things down too lol
[20:36] <donnib> broyles: i managed to do ls -la on a folder and i can see "nogroup", i guess my NAS sets that
[20:36] <ryuguns1> Excuse me if this is to off topic, but how do you install gtkmoz(for python) on ubuntu?
[20:36] <broyles> donnib: yep prob :)
[20:36] <donnib> broyles: so what do i have to do ? i have set read / write access in the NAS
[20:37] <gameaccount> how do I find out which partition is hd0,2 ind grub?
[20:37] <gameaccount> *in
[20:37] <coz_> ryuguns1,  sudo apt-get install python-gtkmozembed
[20:37] <ThinkT510> !info python-gtkmozembed | ryuguns1
[20:37] <ryuguns1> yhank you
[20:37] <broyles> donnib: you need to find out what permissions you need to set on the nas.. its different for all nas's
[20:37] <ryuguns1> thank*
[20:38] <donnib> broyles: my NAS has an option   	 Write-enabled hosts:  where i can type the ip address, maybe that will work
[20:38] <broyles> donnib: let me guess, its a infrant/netgear ready nas
[20:38] <donnib> yup :)
[20:38] <broyles> I had one of those
[20:38] <donnib> is that a problem ?
[20:38] <broyles> nope :P
[20:38] <ryuguns1> @coz_ ,  ThinKT510  and  ubottu: thank you
[20:38] <broyles> but I recommend u mount via samba :P
[20:38] <donnib> oh, ok
[20:39] <donnib> ahhh, i see
[20:39] <ThinkT510> ryuguns1: np
[20:39] <coz_> ryanakca,   no problem
[20:39] <broyles> donnib: I had loads of problems via nfs with it
[20:39] <broyles> donnib: till it died (psu) it was one of the early ones :P
[20:39] <ryanakca> coz_: Sorry?
[20:39] <broyles> donnib: so I used cifs to mount the dirs, was a lot easier longterm with it
[20:40] <coz_> ryanakca,   sorry  wrong nick
[20:40] <coz_> ryuguns1,  no problem
[20:40] <donnib> i have a line like this now in fstab, 192.168.1.55:/uTorrent /home/mihai/uTorrent nfs rw,vers=3 should i change the nfs in the end ?
[20:40] <thiefy> how would i force gparted to format a drive that is mounted as read only?
[20:40] <broyles> donnib: its slightly different.. 1 tick let me get u a url
[20:40] <ThinkT510> thiefy: unmount it
[20:41] <thiefy> ThinkT510 even windows can not format the thing.
[20:41] <broyles> donnib: http://webscript.princeton.edu/~pug/faqwiki/index.php?title=Using_SAMBA/CIFS_to_access_Windows_Shares that should be a good start for you
[20:42] <donnib> thx, :)
[20:42] <broyles> donnib: make sure you have samba-tools installed as well ;)
[20:42] <ThinkT510> thiefy: you can only format if it is unmounted
[20:43] <Osmodivs> coz_ Thx man, itr worked, bad thing is my NOKIA C3 wont recognize wmv as it claims, 3gp conversion does not work in ffmpeg, well, at least not with the -i option
[20:43] <thiefy> fsck and gparted both fail at doing anything to the dirve.
[20:43] <coz_> Osmodivs,  mmm  there are other utilities for this you can google for
[20:43] <ThinkT510> thiefy: what drive is it?
[20:44] <broyles> right be back later :) time to see how natty is :D
[20:44] <donnib> broyles: installing just now..... :)
[20:44] <thiefy> ThinkT510 it's a usb key
[20:45] <ThinkT510> thiefy: does it have a switch on it to prevent writing?
[20:45] <thiefy> nope. :)
[20:46] <ThinkT510> thiefy: so you plug it in, launch gparted and try to format it but it doesn't let you?
[20:46] <ryuguns1> !
[20:46] <thiefy> is there some way to force gparted or fsck or sometkhing to format that mofo even though it'll mount as read only?   (it came out of a windows computer that crashed (didn't unmount properly))
[20:46] <thiefy> ThinkT510 right.
[20:46] <ThinkT510> thiefy: does gparted say its mounted?
[20:46] <thiefy> gparted says this:  Unable to open /dev/sdb read-write (Read-only file system). /dev/sdb has been opened read-only.
[20:47] <ThinkT510> thiefy: then unmount it
[20:47] <thiefy> it is...
[20:47] <ThinkT510> thiefy: you cannot format a drive if it is mounted
[20:47] <thiefy> gparted can't screw with it...
[20:47] <thiefy> i know that.
[20:47] <thiefy> gparted says it can't screw with it cause it's read only.
[20:48] <bikcmp> hm.
[20:48] <ThinkT510> thiefy: what make is the usb stick?
[20:48] <thiefy> how can i say "shutup, do as i say and format this mofo."
[20:48] <bikcmp> I tried the ipod link, and did all the steps, but after using banshee to try to sync, it says that the file format isn't supported
[20:48] <bikcmp> how can I fix that? :)

[20:51] <Kent_> Hey, I just installed 10.10 on an old laptop, but when I plugged the cable for my modem in it still wouldn't connect to the net
[20:51] <ThinkT510> thiefy: looking now

[20:53] <hihihi100> decoder, No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.
[20:53] <decoder> hihihi100: ok, was just a quick guess
[20:54] <viktor133> i keep having troubles with my mic, it works at first, but after a while doesn't anymore. can anybody help me?
[20:54] <decoder> hihihi100: egoboo is in the repos, why dont you install it that way?
[20:54] <hihihi100> decoder, outdated
[20:55] <ThinkT510> thiefy: sorry, i'm stumped
[20:55] <thiefy> me too
[20:55] <thiefy> i want to throw it out the window.
[20:55] <leonessa_> ciao a tutti
[20:55] <hihihi100> decoder, repo version will make my machine slow down a lot

[20:58] <thiefy> thanks for you efforts ThinkT510
[20:59] <ThinkT510> thiefy: np, i can recommend byteStor usb sticks, i haven't had any problems with them
[20:59] <thiefy> it just seems like a rare freak event. not normal at all.     :)
[21:02] <RubenAlonzo> Hello Everyone, just bought a Wd My Passport Elite 500 GB and was wondering even though it is recognized in ubuntu 10.10, should I reformat it to regain all of the 500 gigs? Currently with the installed software on  it from factory it only shows 460 gb?
[21:02] <soreau> RubenAlonzo: I probably would
[21:02] <Note-book> how do I download the latest Nvidia drivers for my HP DV6000 ?
[21:03]  * soreau is still trying to figure out a good way to get the 'cd' removed from his 8GB sandisk cruser
[21:03] <RubenAlonzo> soreau: whats the best way to format it? apllication to use i mean?
[21:04] <Tectu> soreau, did you try gparted with your cruzer?
[21:04] <soreau> RubenAlonzo: I don't know, probably dd.. but I heard that this data can live on an unwritable sector to restore itself
[21:04] <Tectu> soreau, thath worked for me
[21:04] <thiefy> Note-book go to systme - admin - additional drivers - if you need some, they will show up there.
[21:04] <soreau> Tectu: Yes, but it doesn't show this as a partition
[21:04] <hihihi100> decoder, do you play egoboo?
[21:04] <marcin_> serberko
[21:04] <neohashi> hello, how do I make my printer _not_ skip "return" when printing c code from gedit?
[21:04] <soreau> I probably have to 0 out every bit with dd
[21:04] <Tectu> soreau, did you try to create new partitiontables too?
[21:04] <drc> RubenAlonzo: Most external USB drives are formated FAT, I'd re-format it NTSF (the whole drive)
[21:05] <RubenAlonzo> its actuallt showinf up as ntfs i think, lemme check
[21:05] <soreau> Tectu: Yes, it works fine. Just that when you plug it in, it reports a new cd drive with this data in it
[21:05] <Note-book> thiefy, Thanks :)
[21:05] <thiefy> :)\
[21:06] <Tectu> soreau, okay, maybe you have a newer version, my cruzer is a few years old.
[21:06] <RubenAlonzo> actually, whenever i try to use disk utility  to format it, it tells me it cant because the drive is busy?
[21:06] <Tectu> RubenAlonzo, umount it first
[21:07] <soreau> RubenAlonzo: unmount it first
[21:07] <RubenAlonzo> aha! Tectu, i will try that
[21:07] <neohashi> just to clerify.. printing out the string "if (foo) return 0;" gets printed as "if (foo) 0;"
[21:07] <RubenAlonzo> brb
[21:07] <drc> RubenAlonzo: unmount it first
[21:07] <Tectu> RubenAlonzo, type:     sudo umount /dev/sdX
[21:07] <soreau> Tectu: I'm debating on whether or not it's worth it to remove, after all it's only 6.6MB out of 8GB
[21:08] <soreau> 40GB out of 500, I'd be more upset about it ;)
[21:08] <Tectu> soreau, 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] <soreau> Tectu: Yea and it makes the system think there was a disk inserted, etc. Kinda lame
[21:08] <Tectu> soreau, indeed.
[21:09] <Tectu> soreau, i never bought a sandisk stick again.
[21:09] <soreau> Tectu: Also I think it works just fine without this software in the OS it's intended for
[21:09] <soreau> heh
[21:09] <Tectu> soreau, what? is the new curzer shitsoftware supporting linux ubuntu??
[21:09] <guntbert> !language | Tectu
[21:09] <soreau> Tectu: Well you probably should be careful about your language here
[21:10] <RubenAlonzo> sorry i left as i was recevieng how in terminal to unmount it, when i lsusb in terminal it shows up as device 004, how do i unmount it please?
[21:10] <Tectu> guntbert, i am really sorry, won't do it again! sorry!   okay?
[21:10] <soreau> Tectu: The software that ships with these things usually target a particular known os, no names mentioned :P
[21:10] <Tectu> sorry guys about that thing i wrote above
[21:10] <drc> RubenAlonzo: you un/mount, partition and format it all in Disk Utility
[21:11] <yuzodo> what drc said RubenAlonzo :D
[21:11] <RubenAlonzo> ok, like right click it and eject from left side dock icon?
[21:11] <RubenAlonzo> thewn format it?
[21:11] <soreau> RubenAlonzo: Use 'mount' to see what's mounted and where, then use 'umount /dev/sdd1' or whatever your device is
[21:11] <Tectu> RubenAlonzo, yes
[21:11] <soreau> RubenAlonzo: The eject butten should also unmount it
[21:11] <Tectu> soreau, am i right that some devices need sudo to umount?
[21:11] <soreau> RubenAlonzo: And disk utility has an unmount button
[21:12] <soreau> Tectu: You should use privileges when mounting/unmounting nodes
[21:13] <soreau> It's a system configuration change
[21:13] <Tectu> okay
[21:13] <hihihi100> i need help compiling from source, egoboo, it seems its done, but I cannot access the game, the executable files do nothing http://paste.ubuntu.com/579899/
[21:13] <soreau> ! compile | hihihi100
[21:14] <hihihi100> i assume ubottu is a bot...
[21:14] <soreau> hihihi100: Do you know what prefix it installed to?
[21:15] <hihihi100> soreau, I dont even know what you mean by prefix
[21:16] <soreau> hihihi100: What does this show? 'ls /usr/share/games/egoboo-2.x/'
[21:16] <hihihi100> basicdat   and    modules
[21:18] <RubenAlonzo> thank you! worked flawless in disk utility app, once i clicked it it showed the option to unmount the drive, then i was able to format it.
[21:18] <nrik> in the Linux console everything is ok, but in GUI locale is broken. Where i should to search?
[21:18] <Rummage> Query: What .deb packages should I get to play a .divx file in Ubuntu? - 10.10 without internet access, raw liveCD
[21:18] <Dunn> anyone on?
[21:18] <yuzodo> hey Dunn
[21:19] <RubenAlonzo> what the best way in ubuntu  to have a drive formatted? just the regular first option "Master Boot Record"? or the other option of "Don't Partition"? which option will have the most space?
[21:19] <RubenAlonzo> i will only use it with me ubuntu netbook
[21:20] <msgeek> I just had a failure with updating.
[21:20] <yuzodo> RubenAlonzo, MBR
[21:20] <msgeek> three of the files that system update says I need were 404s
[21:20] <yuzodo> RubenAlonzo, wait, what other options are there?
[21:20] <stupidhead> hi all - i'm having trouble connecting my eee pc 4g to network (eth or wlan).. installed 10.10 server edition and ifup telling me unknown interface.. could anyone help me out please?
[21:21] <gameaccount_> hi. I have a grub problem: 'Sudo update-grub2' does not find my win98 install. What can I do?
[21:21] <AbuBadr> is there an easy way to edit the boot?
[21:21] <guntbert> !grub2 | AbuBadr
[21:22] <RubenAlonzo> the first option is Master Boot Record, the other is Don't Partition, so im a little confused, i just a bit ago reformatted it as master boot record, but not certain if thats the best option?
[21:22] <yuzodo> RubenAlonzo, no worries
[21:22] <yuzodo> RubenAlonzo, did you catch my pm btw?
[21:22] <msgeek> I'm using 10.4 Lynx LTS
[21:23] <msgeek> Running Update Manager again.
[21:23] <gameaccount_> does anyone know why grub2 refues to recognize my fat32-win98 install?
[21:23] <msgeek> Hoping to find out the names of the files that won't update.
[21:23] <msgeek> Basically it sounds like three files are missing from the repository.
[21:23]  * msgeek is frustrated.
[21:24] <AbuBadr> guntbert, ubottu, me@me-laptop:~$ grub-install -v
[21:24] <AbuBadr> grub-install (GNU GRUB 0.97)
[21:24] <RubenAlonzo> yuzodo:  yes i did but sorry about no reply, just bought this WD My Passport Elite 500GB and want to set it up as best i can, now it seems i have total of 750GB's of space, the Passport and the built in NetBook's 250GB :)
[21:24] <msgeek> Oh yeah, this is an Acer Aspire1 netbook.
[21:24] <yuzodo> NICE RubenAlonzo ^^
[21:25] <dusf> !webcam
[21:25] <guntbert> !grub | AbuBadr then this one :-)
[21:25] <RubenAlonzo> msgeek:  yes same thing as my eMachines em250
[21:25] <msgeek> Yes, but is yours purple? ^_____^
[21:25] <msgeek> I love this little thing.
[21:25] <hihihi100> simutrans compiled from source, I cannot play any saound, but the sound folder is filled with sound files, help please
[21:25] <RubenAlonzo> just order more ram too, to max it out at 2 gigs, ordered some nifty Crucial ram, 2 gig stick, so i'll be all set now
[21:26] <msgeek> Yeah, mine has 2GB of Kingston.
[21:26] <guntbert> msgeek: please keep to the topic
[21:26] <serginho> hi
[21:26] <cryptodira> running update manager returns this:  W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/sevenmachines/flashsudo/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/source/Sources.gz  404  Not Found
[21:26] <cryptodira> , W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/sevenmachines/flashsudo/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz  404  Not Found
[21:26] <cryptodira> , E:Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.     how can this be corrected??  10.10 amd/64
[21:26] <drc> RubenAlonzo: did you format it ntsf or ext4?
[21:27] <serginho> name is serginho from tefe-amazon-brazil
[21:27] <RubenAlonzo> msgeek:  how is it with 2gigs now? did it come with 2gigs or did you upgrade from 1 gig like me?
[21:27] <RubenAlonzo> drc i did ntfs
[21:27] <msgeek> Actually I'm having a similar problem with my update manager cryptodira.
[21:27] <msgeek> This is what I'm actually in for...there are three files not updating because update manager cannot find them.
[21:28] <yuzodo> RubenAlonzo, shoulda picked ext4 :D
[21:28] <msgeek> Running Update Manager right now to find out which ones they are.
[21:28] <RubenAlonzo> yuzodo: is that an option froom the disk utility?
[21:28] <msgeek> Maybe there's a problem with the repository?
[21:28] <yuzodo> yeah RubenAlonzo
[21:28] <cryptodira> msgeek, are you on 10.10 and 64 bit?
[21:28] <RubenAlonzo> ok lemme check it out again, brb
[21:29] <guntbert> cryptodira: a ppa may fail ...
[21:29] <msgeek> I'm on 10.4 32bit
[21:29] <drc> RubenAlonzo: Don't let yuzodo  spook you :)
[21:29] <yuzodo> drc, I'm wrong?
[21:29] <msgeek> 28 out of 44 d/l so far
[21:29] <wolfric> Are there any documents out there detailing the specifics of how ubuntu is different to debian. (ie completely void of all generisations) Or can anyone actually tell me?
[21:30] <msgeek> sorry, 28 out of 40 d/l.
[21:30] <guntbert> wolfric: this is a support channel, you could try to ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:30] <drc> yuzodo: not wrong, it's just a matter of preference...with a 500gig HHD, he's gonna put the large files (audio/video) on it, and soomer or later someone is gonna ask for a file...and that someone will only have XO or W7 :)
[21:31] <drc> darn fingers :(
[21:31] <cryptodira> guntbert, why would a ppa fail..... this sounds like a common occourence..
[21:31] <yuzodo> drc, maybe, he said he's only gonna use it with Ubuntu though
[21:32] <guntbert> cryptodira: not really common, but it is no official repository but a private one - and so...
[21:32] <drc> yuzodo: I saw...I said the same thing and the sooner or later happened to me sooner
[21:32] <yuzodo> xD
[21:32] <Majorastro> where can I download luciid lynx version
[21:32] <msgeek> anyone know about this????????
[21:32] <msgeek> Anyone???
[21:32] <msgeek> Bueller? Bueller?
[21:32] <RubenAlonzo> ok, i dont have that option yuzodo,, i just have Master Boot Record, GUID, Don't Partiton, and last option is Apple Partition Map? Which one is best for ubuntu to use?
[21:32] <guntbert> !download | Majorastro
[21:32] <Majorastro> okay thanks
[21:33] <Gnea> !anyone | msgeek
[21:33] <msgeek> I asked.
[21:33] <msgeek> No reply
[21:33] <cryptodira> guntbert, ppa upgrades did work for me with 10.04.... it seems that a few items are broken in 10.10 including activating fglrx drivers
[21:33] <yuzodo> RubenAlonzo, when you select MBR, you can select Ext4, but don't since you might need to export it to windows
[21:33] <MC8> Howdy, is there an uptime counter anywhere easily accessible on a standard ubuntu build?
[21:33] <yuzodo> RubenAlonzo, so leave it like it is :)
[21:33] <RubenAlonzo> yuzodo:  thanks will do
[21:33] <stupidhead> #please can someone help me, running 10.10 server and trying to connect to network via terminal but don't really know what i'm doing
[21:33] <RubenAlonzo> brb
[21:33] <msgeek> Update Manager is right now running and I'm going to try to find out which files it is saying it cannot find.
[21:33] <yuzodo> :)
[21:34] <msgeek> There are three I get a 404 error on.
[21:34] <soreau> stupidhead: How are you trying to connect?
[21:34] <stupidhead> i've tried sudo ifconfig eth0 up but still don't have ip address
[21:34] <Gnea> msgeek: feel free to utilize the pastebin site
[21:34] <msgeek> And basically the Update Manager stops in its tracks, it will not update further.
[21:34] <msgeek> pastebin?
[21:34] <msgeek> Nani?
[21:34] <stupidhead> i'd like to get wireless up and running but for now trying with lan
[21:34] <Gnea> !pastebin | msgeek
[21:34] <guntbert> cryptodira: sorry, no real help from me - I wanted to point out that using a ppa is not entirely without risks
[21:34] <soreau> ! who | stupidhead
[21:35] <cryptodira> guntbert, Thank You for your input.
[21:35] <soreau> stupidhead: What is the ip of the device you're trying to connect to?
[21:35] <Gnea> !wifi | stupidhead
[21:35] <stupidhead> have tried docs, didn't help me.
[21:35] <msgeek> OK, it looks like it found the files.
[21:35] <RubenAlonzo> Does Anyone know why the SD Card shows up in Disk Utilty, but then when I close it, it is no where to be found? Been having issues trying to use the SD Card but to no avail, i was even able to format it in disk utility but no where else does it show?
[21:36] <msgeek> I had to repeat the Update Manager 3 times but now the update seems to be proceeding.
[21:36] <Gnea> msgeek: yeah, running an apt-get update tends to solve that nicely :)
[21:36] <stupidhead> soreau: i'm trying to connect my netbook to the lan network, so far it doesn't have an ip address
[21:36] <msgeek> Will keep y'all posted.
[21:36] <soreau> stupidhead: What is the ip of the device you're trying to connect *to* though?
[21:36] <RubenAlonzo> msgeek: does your sd card slot work?
[21:36] <Rummage> Hey guys, is there an option to keep the LiveCD from trying to use Swap Partition data?
[21:36] <Gnea> msgeek: or, equivilantly, clicking the 'check' button
[21:37] <cryptodira> msgeek, flash related files were not found via ppa for me.... tho, other than that update manager grabbed everything else without a hitch...
[21:37] <kurtis> let's say I have this server running open ssh and I've got this client that I can only ssh to by first sshing to the server. is there anyway for me to tunnle an ssh through the server?
[21:37] <msgeek> I was doing the update from the Cloud.
[21:37] <Onia>  ***  I am now away.  Reason: _____________HASHISH___________$~ .  ***
[21:37] <victorhugo289> hello
[21:38] <Gnea> !away | Onia
[21:38] <stupidhead> soreau: how do i find that out?
[21:38] <soreau> ikonia: lmao
[21:38] <soreau> stupidhead: You should already know. What is the ethernet cable plugged into?
[21:38] <victorhugo289> guys, if I copy a file from an Ext4 partition to a Fat32 partition is the file going to be bigger on the Fat32?
[21:38] <msgeek> OK, it found the files, it installed them, all seems to be well again.
[21:38] <ikonia> victorhugo289: small variations due to block sizes
[21:38] <msgeek> Thank you.
[21:39] <victorhugo289> is the block size of Ext4 smaller than that of Fat32?
[21:39] <victorhugo289> which one stores more efficiently as to space is concerned???
[21:39] <skullboy> someone explain the output of fbset i need to forge it
[21:39] <ikonia> victorhugo289: it's nothing to do with ext4 or fat32, don't worry about it, they will be the same size
[21:39] <drc> RubenAlonzo: when you see the SD card in Disk Utility, does it say it's mounted?
[21:39] <stupidhead> soreau: my bt infinity router..
[21:40] <RubenAlonzo> drc lemme check brb
[21:40] <soreau> stupidhead: Alright, assuming it has dhcp setup, try 'sudo dhclient eth0'
[21:40] <victorhugo289> thanks
[21:41] <victorhugo289> I can proceed and copy this big file from Ex4 to Fat32, then.
[21:41] <stupidhead> soreau: i don't think it does.. it couldn't do it automaticaly when i installed ubuntu and chose "do not configure at this time"
[21:41] <soreau> stupidhead: Ok, what is the ip of the router?
[21:42] <Habstinat> Lugaru can start in a window, but won't let you release the cursor from the game unless you quit. Are there any keyboard shortcuts built into Ubuntu that would let me do this? Alt+Tab and Ctrl-Alt-Arrow Key both don't work.
[21:42] <cryptodira> under additional drivers.....FGLRX drivers for the ati card.... they exist on the HD, ,.. activation fails with: "you are not authorized to perform this action".... how might i fix this?
[21:42] <dr3af> hello,is there a divx web player ??
[21:42] <NinoScript> how can I make my control key a super?
[21:42] <stupidhead> soreau: i don't know the ip of the router
[21:42] <ThinkT510> victorhugo289: if it isn't bigger than 4gb then yes
[21:42] <skullboy> someone explain the output of fbset i need to forge it
[21:42] <Fluttershy> NinoScript: keyboard preferences
[21:42] <soreau> stupidhead: You need to find out because it's an important piece of information.
[21:42] <guntbert> cryptodira: use gksudu/sudo
[21:43] <gilles> hey .. can any1 help me with  starcraft 2 ... i have teamviewer so some1 can connect and see the problem and help me .. i got teh game running , full screen only, sound works i can log in but cant play multiplayer or siungleplayer
[21:43] <NinoScript> Fluttershy, do you know which one? it seems that I can make my super keys extra controls, but I want it the other way around :\
[21:43] <stupidhead> soreau: would that be my external ip?
[21:44] <skullboy> someone explain the output of fbset i need to forge it
[21:44] <dr3af> any divx web player alternative?please?
[21:44] <soreau> stupidhead: No, you want the internal ip. Usually something like 192.168.1.1
[21:44] <Fluttershy> NinoScript: so, wait, are you trying to make Win act as Ctrl?
[21:44] <NinoScript> Fluttershy, I want to make the control key act as super
[21:45] <Habstinat> To rephrase my previous question: What are some Linux keyboard shortvuts to release the mouse from an application that's holding it?
[21:45] <soreau> NinoScript: Look into xmodmap
[21:45] <slashblue> how can I download a pkg for broadcom BCM4312 wireless card. I cant do it live on the net, cause net doesnt come up
[21:45] <NinoScript> soreau, is that working again?
[21:45] <soreau> Habstinat: If an app captures any input, you can't get it back until that app releases it
[21:45] <guntbert> Habstinat: are you talking about virtualization software?
[21:45] <soreau> NinoScript: Was it ever broken?
[21:46] <gilles> hey .. can any1 help me with  starcraft 2 ... i have teamviewer so some1 can connect and see the problem and help me .. i got teh game running , full screen only, sound works i can log in but cant play multiplayer or siungleplayer
[21:46] <soreau> ! broadcom | slashblue
[21:46] <stupidhead> soreau: okay, found that, it's 192.168.1.254
[21:46] <oneliner> how can i re route a domain address to the local loopback?
[21:46] <soreau> stupidhead: Alright, now set the ip of your card: sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.101
[21:46] <Fluttershy> did you try "Control is mapped to Win keys (and the usual Ctrl keys)"? Not positive that's what you want, but it's the closest thing I can think of
[21:47] <oneliner> something like the host file for windows
[21:47] <NinoScript> soreau, yes it was, for a long time: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/524774
[21:47] <soreau> stupidhead: And see if you can 'ping 192.168.1.254'
[21:47] <RubenAlonzo> Does anyone know the sudo command to mount a device please?
[21:47] <MeanEYE> !mount RubenAlonzo
[21:47] <Fluttershy> !mount | RubenAlonzo
[21:47] <ikonia> RubenAlonzo: if you plug a disk in it should auto mount it through the desktop
[21:47] <guntbert> oneliner: there is /et/hosts
[21:47] <soreau> NinoScript: Oh well, I never used it really.
[21:47] <gilles> hey .. can any1 help me with  starcraft 2 ... i have teamviewer so some1 can connect and see the problem and help me .. i got teh game running , full screen only, sound works i can log in but cant play multiplayer or siungleplayer
[21:47] <RubenAlonzo> ok brb
[21:48] <NinoScript> Fluttershy, that makes my "Win key" act as a Control, I want my Control key to act as a "Super"
[21:48] <ikonia> gilles: try the guys in #winehq
[21:48] <soreau> ! repeat | gilles
[21:48] <stupidhead> soreau: i can ping the router, does that mean i'm up now?
[21:48] <soreau> stupidhead: Nope.
[21:48] <gilles> i tried now for 5 days
[21:48] <BaKeR> does anyone here get white text when shuting down?
[21:48] <hellhound_> how can I change the location of my documents, picture, music, and video folders to use my windows equivalent folders in Ubuntu?
[21:48] <soreau> stupidhead: Next, you want to set it as your nameserver. Edit /etc/resolv.conf and enter this line:  nameserver 192.168.1.254
[21:49] <BaKeR> Broke Bong lol
[21:49] <ikonia> BaKeR: ?
[21:49] <soreau> stupidhead: Finally, check that it's working with 'ping google.com'
[21:49] <Habstinat> guntbert: Nope. Just a regular Linux app. On some applications that capture the cursor you can get it out by pressing Alt-Tab, but it doesn't seem to work for this one.
[21:49] <BaKeR> when i shut down i get text instead of a nice looking splash screen
[21:50] <BaKeR> sometimes shows a different text trying to figure out what they mean
[21:50] <NinoScript> hellhound_, I know it's possible, I read about it somewhere, but could never make it work :P
[21:50] <guntbert> Habstinat: strange - I have never seen that
[21:50] <stupidhead> it's saying "connect: Network is unreachable"
[21:50] <BaKeR> one goes to fast to read
[21:50] <stupidhead> soreau: it's saying "connect: Network is unreachable"
[21:51] <soreau> stupidhead: Can you ping 8.8.8.8 ?
[21:51] <stupidhead> soreau: no, same message
[21:51] <BaKeR> anyone here get text when shutting down?
[21:51] <guntbert> soreau: (I suspect missing default gateway for stupidhead )
[21:52] <soreau> stupidhead: Ok, you need to add a route. So delete the default and add one: sudo route del default && sudo route add default gw 192.168.1.254
[21:52] <soreau> guntbert: Righto
[21:52] <soreau> stupidhead: In theory, it should work after that
[21:53] <BaKeR> MeanEye: do you get a text when shutting down?
[21:53] <Habstinat> guntbert: You've never played a game where it captures your mouse cursor for input?
[21:53] <stupidhead> soreau: i get "SIOCDELRT: No such process"
[21:53] <soreau> stupidhead: harmless warning
[21:53] <soreau> stupidhead: ping google.com
[21:53] <guntbert> Habstinat: no - I don't play computer games :-)
[21:53] <stupidhead> soreau: still same - Network unreachable
[21:54] <soreau> stupidhead: I guess you need to configure your router properly then
[21:54] <stupidhead> soreau: does it matter that the machine is an asus eeepc 701?
[21:54] <BaKeR> computer games kind of blow in my opinion
[21:54] <BaKeR> even with a xbox 360 controller hooked up to play
[21:55] <soreau> stupidhead: Run route and see what's the default
[21:55] <ikonia> BaKeR: not interested in that, this is ubuntu OS support
[21:55] <stupidhead> soreau: router working fine, my mums pc and my laptop are connected..
[21:55] <BaKeR> ikonia will ubunut 11 have plyamouth?
[21:55] <ronnietm> WHAT A DORK
[21:55] <stupidhead> soreau: default 192.168.1.0
[21:55] <ikonia> BaKeR: ubuntu 11.04 is discussed in #ubuntu+1
[21:55] <ikonia> ronnietm: please keep random insults out of the channel
[21:56] <LtHummus> can someone help me diagnose my lirc issues?  i can't seem to get it up and running
[21:56] <soreau> stupidhead: You need to get rid of that. Run 'sudo route del default && route' to make sure it's gone
[21:56] <BaKeR> ubuntu 11
[21:56] <ikonia> BaKeR: ubuntu 11.04 is discussed in #ubuntu+1 irc channel
[21:56] <guntbert> ikonia: s/random//   :-)
[21:56] <ThinkT510> BaKeR: /join #ubuntu+1
[21:56] <stupidhead> soreau: it doesn't get rid of it
[21:57] <dusf> a guy on how to make my webcam work with flash in ubuntu 10.10 is telling me to sudo apt-get install ld.so.preload-manager, but it doesn't exist, does anyone know what i should be installing instead?
[21:57] <dusf> !flash
[21:57] <soreau> stupidhead: Is networkmanager running? 'service networkmanager status'
[21:57] <gilles>  hey .. can any1 help me with  starcraft 2 ... i have teamviewer so some1 can connect and see the problem and help me .. i got teh game running , full screen only, sound works i can log in but cant play multiplayer or siungleplaye
[21:58] <ikonia> gilles: #winehq is the correct place to ask,
[21:58] <stupidhead> soreau: networkmanager: unrecognised service
[21:58] <nrik> in the Linux console everything is ok, but in GUI locale is broken. Where i should to search?
[21:58] <wolter> why do my flags not work in the Exec value of a desktop launcher?
[21:59] <BaKeR> cant run check filesystems ext4?
[21:59] <soreau> stupidhead: Well I don't know why route is broken for you. Maybe try #networking
[21:59] <ikonia> BaKeR: you can fsck ext4 partitions sure, they just can't be mounted while checking
[21:59] <Ratty> Is there a way to ignore dependencies for a specific package
[21:59] <Ratty> ?
[21:59] <ikonia> Ratty: that's not something you want to do, depend means "it needs"
[21:59] <skullboy> someone explain the output of fbset i need to forge it
[21:59] <stupidhead> soreau: okay, bit busy atm so will prob ttake it to forms.org, thanks for ur time and help though :)
[21:59] <ugliefrog> !nfs
[22:00] <skullboy> someone explain the output of fbset i need to forge it
[22:00] <skullboy> someone explain the output of fbset i need to forge it
[22:00] <skullboy> someone explain the output of fbset i need to forge it
[22:00] <skullboy> someone explain the output of fbset i need to forge it

[22:00] <BaKeR> partion 5 of partion 2 of ata: the device is busy
[22:00] <Ratty> ikonia, Nah, not this package... Installing roundcube from the repos and it requires php5-intl
[22:00] <ikonia> BaKeR: is it mounted
[22:00] <Ratty> I don't have that package
[22:00] <BaKeR> ikonia: so whats does that all mean
[22:00] <ikonia> Ratty: you'll need that package
[22:00] <ikonia> BaKeR: it means that device is in use, probably mounted
[22:00] <BaKeR> mounte to /
[22:00] <BaKeR> root
[22:01] <ikonia> BaKeR: ok, so you need to do check that from a livecd, or touch /.autofsck and reboot
[22:01] <Ratty> ikonia, No I don't, running it fine without the package currently
[22:01] <the_drow> how do I add a library to PYTHONPATH?
[22:01] <ikonia> Ratty: right, so how are you running it if you haven't installed it yet because it complains of the dependency
[22:01] <BaKeR> thanks will do and check back in a bit
[22:01] <BaKeR> thanks
[22:02] <Ratty> ikonia, I used the --ignore-dependencies flag with apt-get and installed it
[22:02] <Ratty> I wish to make it officially globally
[22:02]  * dannyLopez68 AFK
[22:02] <ikonia> Ratty: so why are you asking how to ignore packge dependencies if you already know how to do it
[22:02] <ikonia> !away > dannyLopez68
[22:03]  * dannyLopez68 AFK
[22:03] <Ratty> ikonia, Because it only does it for one instance, I want it to be permenant
[22:03] <ikonia> dannyLopez68: please disable that script
[22:03] <ikonia> Ratty: I don't believe you can set it globally, but I don't know
[22:03] <Ratty> I have to add that to every statement then
[22:03] <Ratty> Okay
[22:03] <Ratty> Thanks
[22:05] <iceroot> Ratty: write an alias for apt-get install :)
[22:05] <Ratty> iceroot, Blah, that shouldn't be necessary
[22:05] <ikonia> iceroot: genius

[22:23] <gumus> hi aşş
[22:23] <gumus> hi all
[22:23] <yuzodo> hey
[22:23] <gumus> how can i fix the missing-plugin problem ?
[22:23] <yuzodo> be more specific
[22:24] <YankDownUnder> gumus, Very general. What exactly are you talking about...
[22:24] <gumus> yep, i was trying to listen to radio on the net
[22:24] <gumus> it says missing-plugin
[22:24] <yuzodo> !details | gumus
[22:24] <YankDownUnder> gumus, Still very general.
[22:24] <gumus> ok
[22:24] <gumus> again
[22:24] <gumus> i was trying to liston to classical radio on the net
[22:25] <gumus> *listen
[22:25] <gumus> it says missing-plugin
[22:25] <gumus> i think i need flash?
[22:25] <shcherbak> gumus: cvls <your station>.pls  you need to get broadcast link.
[22:25] <drc> gumus: WHAT says missing plugin?
[22:25] <YankDownUnder> gumus, apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[22:25] <gumus> i did it
[22:26] <ThinkT510> drc: i guess he means firefox
[22:26] <gumus> but i couldn't run the command "google-chromium -- enable--plugin"
[22:26] <ThinkT510> ah
[22:26] <gumus> sorry for explaining badly
[22:26] <YankDownUnder> ...not Firefox...
[22:27] <drc> ThinkT510: good guess...it means one thing if it's firefox and another if it's rhythmbox/banshee/etc
[22:27] <gumus> does downloading firefox firefox fix this? Because i used to use firefox^^  or i still need to download flash again
[22:27] <YankDownUnder> Yer still gonna need the plugins - flash and otherwise...
[22:27] <tjiggi_fo> gumus, are you listening on firefox or rhythmbox?
[22:28] <gumus> on website, via chromium
[22:28] <sean``> hi
[22:28] <sean``> any advice in using ubuntu server for ldap/samba/nfs?
[22:29] <YankDownUnder> sean``, #ubuntu-server
[22:29] <ThinkT510> !server | sean``
[22:29] <sean``> i basically have to manage 2 sites that should be able to login from the HQ site
[22:29] <Jguy_phone> when you preseed, is it possible to create your first user and then create a second user that isn't able to sudo?
[22:30] <sean``> and a firewall (sonicwall) that I would liketo use with ldap
[22:30] <YankDownUnder> sean``, #ubuntu-server, mate.
[22:30] <ThinkT510> Jguy_phone: you can add/remove users from sudoers file
[22:31] <Jguy_phone> all in a preseed? during install?
[22:31] <NinoScript> is it possible to change an application keyboard shortcut, if the app doesn't provide a way?
[22:31] <shcherbak> Jguy_phone: man adduser
[22:32] <shcherbak> NinoScript: zbindkeys would be the way
[22:32] <shcherbak> NinoScript: xbindkeys
[22:32] <projdark> hello
[22:32] <ThinkT510> Jguy_phone: the installer only lets you make a default user as far as i can tell, so after you installed adduser and make sure the sudoers file is to your liking
[22:33] <projdark> could someone assist me in getting my usb headset to work on the 'try ubuntu'
[22:33] <nibbler_> projdark, if you plug it, via preferences.... audio you should be able to select it for in and output?
[22:34] <Jguy_phone> I thought so....so next question...is there a way I can run a bash script upon first boot and then delete it?
[22:34] <projdark> no i dont see it under output
[22:34] <nibbler_> Jguy_phone, place it in /etc/rc.local, and have it delete itself?
[22:34] <illmortal> anyone know if Ubuntu 10.10 comes with TRIM automatically? Ubuntu's running off of SSD
[22:35] <Stryker> anybody know where the empathy user files are stored?
[22:35] <Jguy_phone> yeah...that makes sense...thanks
[22:35] <shcherbak> Jguy_phone: you would need to prepare custom CD/USB
[22:35] <ttyja> illmortal: it is.
[22:35] <illmortal> thanks ttyja. I just wanted to make sure before I tried any HOW TOs
[22:36] <ttyja> illmortal: it's supported since linux 2.6.33
[22:36] <illmortal> nice! so by default, it should recognize my SSD and will activate TRIM, ya?
[22:36] <ttyja> illmortal: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRIM#Operating_system_and_SSD_support
[22:36] <projdark> the sound window closed itself
[22:37] <projdark> when testing
[22:38] <projdark> try ubuntu wont find usb headset halp
[22:39] <Dekk-lappy> anyone good with wifi issues?
[22:40] <madadam1> how could I avoid that postgresql starts at os startup?
[22:40] <ttyja> illmortal: http://askubuntu.com/questions/18903/how-to-enable-trim/19480#19480
[22:41] <ohzie> someone should put unity into a gentoo repository. Just saying.
[22:41] <jrtayloriv> Is there any way for me to set it where my keyboard volume controls will amplify the volume past 100%, as I can do with the slider in the "Sound preferences..." dialog?
[22:41] <illmortal> lol ohzie... unity definitely looks nice.
[22:41] <illmortal> thanks ttyja, gonna read up
[22:41] <Buceph> Ever since installing Ubuntu on a spare hard drive, my windows installation has had to go through chkdsk on start up. Is this normal?
[22:41] <ohzie> illmortal: Yeah unity is so pretty. :3
[22:42]  * LtHummus has been banging his head against this wall for days on this issue :(
[22:42] <illmortal> can't wait til I get my Archos 101... more than likely will install Ubuntu with Unity :D
[22:42] <ohzie> Oh man
[22:43] <projdark> is there no way to get clearchat pro working on ubuntu
[22:44] <LittleRed> hi guys... I have 10.10 64 bit on a laptop running just fine. I have one of the media bars above the keynoard that I cannot figure out how to get working... any ideas?
[22:45] <ohzie> projdark: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/suse-linux/134712-configuring-logitech-clearchat-pro-usb-headset-suse-10-2-a.html This isn't ubuntu but when it comes to hardware, linux is usually just linux.
[22:45] <Newguy> I was wondering how I could install ubuntu on my desktop without losing all my files
[22:45] <ohzie> projdark: You may be able to apply the same thing this person did
[22:45] <ohzie> Newguy: back up your files to something else or use mubi
[22:45] <ohzie> !mubi | Newguy
[22:45] <ohzie> Err not mubi
[22:45] <ohzie> I forget what the windows installer is
[22:46] <Newguy> arg ok i was hoping to forgoe the 6 hour wait to transfer everything to my terabyte
[22:46] <crlcan81> Whenever 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 to
[22:46] <crlcan81> wait for a later version of Adobe's flash plugin.
[22:47] <jrtayloriv> Is there any way for me to set it where my keyboard volume controls will amplify the volume past 100%, as I can do with the slider in the "Sound preferences..." dialog?
[22:48] <crlcan81> I was wondering that myself.
[22:48] <crlcan81> Among a few other keyboard issues.
[22:48] <xangua> crlcan81: try the 64bit version plugin, ubuntu installs 32bit
[22:48] <crlcan81> I try to get that to install and the page just gives me a runaround.
[22:48] <crlcan81> keeps sending me back to the 32 bit installer.
[22:48] <crlcan81> or to a page not in english.
[22:49] <crlcan81> even though my localization's set as en, and only HAS en varieties, it still opens es once in a while.
[22:49] <Buceph> Does anyone know about windows screwing up after installing ubuntu on a secondary hard drive?
[22:49] <Newguy> should i install the 32 bit even thought i have a dual core?
[22:49] <projdark> why cant i just plug in my usb headset and have it work
[22:49] <projdark> i dont get it
[22:50] <itaylor57> Newguy: if you can use the 64 bit
[22:50] <mosdef> hey yoo
[22:50] <BlueBomber7> Newguy: 32 vs. 64 bit doesn't have anything to do with the number of cores. Find out if your processor supports 64bit addressing.
[22:50] <mosdef> someone use metasploit ??
[22:50] <itaylor57> Newguy: memory and such
[22:50] <pylix> I there's a bug in adobe flash plugin 10.2x that gives a lot of flash videos a red tint.
[22:50] <pylix> *-i
[22:50] <Newguy> ahh ok because a friend said 64bit was a bit more technical
[22:51] <YankDownUnder> mosdef, This ain't a hacking channel mate. Again.
[22:51] <projdark> why cant i just plug in my usb headset and have it work
[22:51] <Newguy> you need the drivers?
[22:51] <Newguy> @projdark
[22:51] <pylix> has anyone else had this issue with flashplayer?
[22:51] <projdark> it doesnt find the drivers when searching
[22:51] <itaylor57> pylix: flash is buggy in its nature
[22:52] <Newguy> @projdark i wish i knew more about the drivers if they port over from windows or not since most things are coded for that
[22:53] <pylix> well there's workarounds that work but no concrete solution as of yet see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1698956
[22:53] <pylix> I'm just wondering to which entity i should report the bug

[22:54] <BlueBomber7> Arkadiuz: Yes. Although I'm using a driver straight from Realtek, so I think it's crappy hardware. Does yours reconnect at all?
[22:54] <Newguy> i got this laptop less than 2 years old with a fatal drive error worth fixing?
[22:55] <th0r> Newguy: replace the hd?
[22:55] <KimLaroux> Newguy, it depends on the size of the disk and your wallet
[22:56] <projdark> whats a terminal
[22:56] <Newguy> eh its 320 gig how much would it cost to replace with maybe a 250 gig or less
[22:56] <iceroot> skypce: i have 1005px, dont know the difference to 1005pe
[22:56] <BlueBomber7> projdark: Please request drivers from the manufacturer if they don't have them posted on their site. Let them know you're interested in them supporting your platform.
[22:57] <edbian> Newguy, You could probably save money by buying a hdd instead of a new laptop.
[22:57] <Newguy> how would i use it as the main HD instead of a external?
[22:57] <Newguy> I have a terabyte thats doing nothing
[22:57] <edbian> Newguy, 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)
[22:58] <Diamondcite> Newguy: You can either use an HDD dock via USB.. or buy a new laptop HDD for about $40?
[22:58] <edbian> Newguy, What do you mean you have a terabyte doing nothing?  A terabyte external drive?
[22:58] <Newguy> edbian yea
[22:58] <nrik> Why in tty I have no problems with locale, but in GUI (xfce4-terminal)?
[22:58] <edbian> Newguy, Install Ubuntu on that.  Tell the bios to boot to that hdd.
[22:59] <edbian> Newguy, Of course then your laptop isn't very portable anymore.
[22:59] <Diamondcite> Also external 1TB drive.. are not the fastest... won't compare to an internal dirve.
[22:59] <Newguy> eh i connect it to a 42" flat screen anyways
[22:59] <Diamondcite> So it's not very portable to begin with ^_^
[22:59] <Newguy> what if i used a firewire or wouldnt help?
[23:00] <Diamondcite> Firewire is what faster, not too much
[23:00] <Newguy> hell i could probably just rip open the casing and run a sata cable to it
[23:00] <KimLaroux> USB 3.0 is faster than Firewire
[23:01] <th0r> Newguy: is the external a 2.5" or 3.5" drive?
[23:01] <KimLaroux> Newguy, why don't you just go shopping for a normal hard drive? they are seriously cheap
[23:01] <Diamondcite> Newguy: 3.5" and the 2.5" Sata drives DO use the same connector.. just.. do you have such a wire?
[23:01] <Newguy> not atm but i can just run to fryes or something and nab it
[23:01] <Diamondcite> why spend a little money when you can spend alot more just trying to connect it :)
[23:02] <Diamondcite> Err that doesn't sound right
[23:02] <Newguy> lol
[23:02] <Diamondcite> I have never tried to boot from firewire.
[23:02] <Newguy> well its just a thought and a half trying to bring this laptop from the grave is all
[23:02] <Diamondcite> I can say that while the Data cable is standard for SATA drives the power might not be an issue.
[23:03] <projdark> how do people use headphones if there arent any drivers
[23:03] <Diamondcite> When I had to bring a laptop back from the grave I opted to just buy a new hard drive.
[23:03] <Diamondcite> projdark: Most systems headphone ports work without drivers..
[23:03] <Newguy> yea which is probably what i will do but i still dont have the technical expertise to installit
[23:04] <Diamondcite> projdark: That or the driver is already provided along with the sound card/chip drivers.
[23:04] <greyhatsalafi> hard drive is easy
[23:04] <Newguy> well it couldnt hurt it anymore than it already is
[23:04] <projdark> the thing is, it has "clearchat pro usb" under hardware in sound
[23:04] <Diamondcite> Newguy: Assuming you can find the drive bay, it is usually 2 screws, 1 cover and 1 SINGLE connector.
[23:04] <projdark> but when i press test is crashes
[23:05] <Diamondcite> projdark: Are these 3.5mm type or USB type?
[23:05] <projdark> usb
[23:05] <Newguy> alright thanks guys youve been a big help ill try to install a new internal HD if that fails ill be back
[23:05] <Diamondcite> (never tried a USB speaker.. never mind a headphone...)
[23:05] <qwp> hi is there any reason to prefer 32bit unbuntu over 64bit ubuntu even for 64bit machines?
[23:05] <edbian> qwp, 32 bit is better tested and therefore less buggy.  (but that is less and less true every day)
[23:05] <illmortal> anyone know if you can skin Rhythmbox? In other words, GUI themes? If not.... what would be the next music player?
[23:06] <Diamondcite> qwp: unless you are obsessive about 32bit games, 64bit would work fairly nicely and you can still run 32bit only apps within a multi-lib or chroot enviroment.
[23:06] <qwp> ok thanks
[23:06] <jxshxx> I just popped an SD card into my mini for the 1st time, resulting in a blank/frozen screen.  Running 10.04LTS.  Is there something I need to do before I can use that slot?
[23:06] <illmortal> qwp.. I only prefer 64-bit for the sake of performance... though I don't see Linux using more than 3gb of my RAM lol
[23:06] <Diamondcite> jxshxx: Was that popping in with the system already up and running?
[23:06] <Fluttershy> 64-bit is often a pride thing more than anything
[23:07] <samuel> is it possible to autostart brltty?
[23:07] <qwp> thanks
[23:07] <jxshxx> Diamondcite, Yes indeed
[23:07] <Chilaquiles> what's the best software to develop web pages on ubuntu so far? something like dreamweaver or anything like thatr
[23:07] <Jasonn> illmortal: I dont see linux needing more than 500Mb
[23:07] <Stryker> anybody know where the empathy user files are stored?
[23:08] <illmortal> Jasonn... I blame Firefox, mostly... I tend to have like 15-30 tabs open majority of the time lol
[23:08] <Diamondcite> jxshxx: Er.. not my field.. please try someone else for card reader freezing the system
[23:08] <illmortal> plus all the eyecandy/widgets/screenlets
[23:08] <Jasonn> illmortal: i think before you were more conscios because it filled up your task bar, but now you can have 2 windows, and it seems like nothing
[23:09] <Baram> quick question, I know that after a kernel update my logitech mouse doesn't work, to fix it I need to change *hdraw I just forget where...
[23:09] <samuel> does anyone know?
[23:09] <jeeves_moss> how can I expand my current drive onto a larger drive with DD?  I would like to move from a 160Gb to a 500Gb in my laptop and keep the partition %s the same on the new drive
[23:09] <Chilaquiles> what's the best software to develop web pages on ubuntu so far? something like dreamweaver or anything like thatr
[23:09] <ikonia> jeeves_moss: don't cross post please, are you using ubuntu desktop or ubuntu server
[23:09] <illmortal> Jasonn... what do you mean? I can split up say 30 tabs into two firefox browser windows and it'll lower RAM use?
[23:09] <Jasonn> !best | Chilaquiles
[23:10] <Diamondcite> jeeves_moss: I don't think that it is possible to keep the %... instead.. you will have to DD your own drive into the new one, then use gparted to re-size and move the partitions accordingly.
[23:10] <Jasonn> illmortal: AHAH, i wish mate, i mean it seems like you arent using that many tabs
[23:10] <Stryker> anybody know where the empathy user files are stored?
[23:10] <jeeves_moss> Diamondcite, that was the "plan", I just didn't know if there was an easier way
[23:10] <samuel> firefox is notorius for its bad mem management
[23:10] <illmortal> Jasonn, I see haha
[23:11] <illmortal> ya samuel
[23:11] <Chobo> Hello
[23:11] <V13Axel> So I have a netbook running Ubuntu 10.04.2 Lucid(NOT Netbook edition). I was using Facebook, and then it started freaking out. I decided to restart, and after the reboot, the GDM froze, giving me an error about GNOME-panel and fast user switching. Any ideas, anyone?
[23:11] <failican> hello
[23:11] <Jasonn> Chosi: hey
[23:11] <illmortal> wish there was a better browser with as many features as firefox
[23:11] <samuel> seamonkey is much better at it
[23:11] <Chobo> I'm a bit confused about something
[23:11] <Chilaquiles> Jasonn: any software that you can recommend based on GUI, tools, components, most used, etc.
[23:11] <Chobo> I use the ubuntu mozilla daily ppa for ff 4
[23:11] <Jasonn> illmortal: Have you tried chromium?
[23:11] <Chobo> recently the firefox-4.0-globalmenu package was added
[23:11] <samuel> or opera :)
[23:11] <Chobo> yet it doesn't seem to work
[23:11] <Chilaquiles> chromium?
[23:11] <ikonia> jeeves_moss: mount the new disk, create a partition with the size you want, copy the data onto the new disk, install grub to the new disk, then boot from it, all done
[23:11] <Chilaquiles> why not chrome?
[23:12] <Jasonn> Chilaquiles: Thats what i use windows for, mate
[23:12] <illmortal> if it at least has ad-block feature lol
[23:12] <Jasonn> Chilaquiles: Chromium=chrome for linux
[23:12] <jeeves_moss> ikonia, thanks!
[23:12] <Chobo> Jasonn: not really
[23:12] <Chilaquiles> I use Chrome on Linux
[23:12] <Chilaquiles> and also i use chrome on Widnows
[23:12] <Chobo> Chrome is bascially a branded chromium
[23:12] <Chilaquiles> I think Chrome is better
[23:12] <samuel> anyhow is someone knows how to autostart a cli command at startup then please speake out :)
[23:12] <Chobo> Chilaquiles: chromium would be 'better'
[23:12] <illmortal> if it can ad-block, I'd switch. That's one thing I favor most about Firefox
[23:12] <Chilaquiles> the support is better
[23:13] <V13Axel> samuel: You can add it to the file known as, "/etc/rc.local"
[23:13] <Chobo> Chilaquiles: changes go into both
[23:13]  * CoOltux sera a tutti
[23:13] <Jasonn> !anyone | samuel
[23:13] <Chobo> BUt does anyone know if appmenu support is in the ubuntu mozilla ppa?
[23:13] <KimLaroux> illmortal, chrome has the adblock plugin, it works very well, been using it for months
[23:13] <Chilaquiles> ok
[23:13] <Chilaquiles> then use chromium then
[23:14] <illmortal> really? lol h hold on.. gonna try it out then
[23:14] <Chilaquiles> I was just saying
[23:14] <detroitwilly> hi all, i'm trying to set up my windows share server so that i can access it from outside my LAN.  does anyone have any advice as to how i would do this?
[23:14] <KimLaroux> https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/gighmmpiobklfepjocnamgkkbiglidom
[23:14] <Jasonn> detroitwilly: Im sorry, do you think that windows is a distro of linux?
[23:14] <Chilaquiles> anyway I need suggestions for using a software that is easy to use, intuitive but with good tools for web developing, any ideas?
[23:14] <Jasonn> detroitwilly: or for that matter, even vaguely related to ubuntu?
[23:14] <detroitwilly> no... im running ubuntu, and have a windows share server set up
[23:15] <josh_> detroitwilly, dyndns :)
[23:15] <projdark> since im on the 'try ubuntu' running from CD will downloads be stored somewhere when im on windows?
[23:15] <Jasonn> detroitwilly: Then sorry for being a butt :)
[23:15] <illmortal> ick dyndns... my service was free for about 6 months.. now they're asking for me to create a paid account XD
[23:15] <detroitwilly> josh_: what is dyndns?
[23:15] <illmortal> google it :P
[23:15] <josh_> detroitwilly, dynamic DNS
[23:15] <Jasonn> illmortal: I think that you might aswell buy a domain
[23:16] <Chilaquiles> jasonn: that was funny that you got kinda angry when he said Windows
[23:16] <Chilaquiles> lol
[23:16] <illmortal> ya Jasonn.... it would be cheaper at that point.
[23:16] <josh_> detroitwilly: maps dynamic IP's to a free domain
[23:16] <detroitwilly> ok. thanks. ill try it out
[23:16] <josh_> detroitwilly: but illmortal is right, there are better options than dyndns.com or w/e
[23:16] <Jasonn> illovae: or even just get a .co.cc domain, and then just hook it up with a free DNS service
[23:16] <Jasonn> Chilaquiles: Anyone that figues out how to use IRC should know that windows has NOTHING to do with linux ;)
[23:17] <detroitwilly> what other options are there?
[23:17] <illmortal> ya dyndns is ok until the services runs out.. and also, i recall them changing something which prevented me from accessing my parent's computer lol
[23:17] <KimLaroux> illmortal, https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/gighmmpiobklfepjocnamgkkbiglidom
[23:17] <Stryker> anybody know where the empathy user files are stored?
[23:17] <Chilaquiles> jasonn: the windows are kind of similar
[23:17] <illmortal> thanks KimLaroux
[23:17] <Lint01> projdark, no, forever lost
[23:17] <Jasonn> Chilaquiles: ahaha, but other than that?
[23:17] <Chilaquiles> they both have vulnerabilities
[23:17] <Chilaquiles> they crash
[23:17] <Jasonn> detroitwilly: www.no-ip.com
[23:18] <Chilaquiles> they have some
[23:18] <detroitwilly> Jasonn: thanks
[23:18] <projdark> Lint01, so say i download wine, itll be gone next tiem i boot from cd?
[23:18] <josh_> detroitwilly: Do you want anyone to be able to access it or only a select few
[23:18] <Jasonn> detroitwilly: for that matter, why not just register a free .co.cc domain name, and use a free DNS service
[23:19] <detroitwilly> josh: only a select few.
[23:19] <Lint01> projdark, if ypu run from cd now, everything in you r home wil vanish. but you may copy fuiles on your hd if you moubt it
[23:19] <josh_> detroitwilly: Not everyone's cup'o'tea, but there's hamachi
[23:20]  * Jasonn barfs on josh_ 's hamachi idea
[23:20] <uplinked> hi, i have a box with multiple VNC/Xserver instances, and with multiple IPs; is there any way to attach each Xserver instance to a different IP, so that *outbound* requests come from seperate IPs depending on the VNC session?
[23:20] <detroitwilly> josh_: i tried using hamachi, was very flaky on my distro... couldn't really get it to work
[23:20] <hiexpo> anyone else still getting the hashsum mismatch when doing apt updates
[23:20] <illmortal> lol
[23:20] <samuel> thanks
[23:20] <Jasonn> uplinked: not unless you have several servers and serveral internet connections
[23:21] <uplinked> Jasonn: so my best bet is to launch more VPS, then? I cannot use this single VPS with 5 IPs?
[23:21] <Rummage> Can someone point me to the .deb files for gstreamer?
[23:22] <V13Axel> Can anyone help me solve a problem where I'm having a frozen login screen, with an error about GNOME-Panel's Fast User Switching?
[23:22] <Jasonn> uplinked: Hmmm... I dont think so
[23:22] <hiexpo> Rummage, gstreamer is in the repos
[23:22] <uplinked> Jasonn: Thanks, I'll just do that, not worth any more of my time to keep trying
[23:22] <Rummage> hiexpo: In the repos that come with a liveCD?
[23:22] <Jasonn> uplinked: :)
[23:23] <V13Axel> Rummage: Yeah, they're in the normal Ubuntu repos.
[23:23] <detroitwilly> josh_: thanks for the help
[23:23] <detroitwilly> jason: thanks for the help
[23:23] <Rummage> I get "unable to locate package" :\
[23:24] <hiexpo> Rummage, what you tring to watch something on web
[23:24] <V13Axel> Rummage: Tried the Ubuntu Software Center?
[23:24] <_jesse_> Rummage: apt-cache search gstreamer
[23:24] <Rummage> Okay. Rule 1: I have no internet access from the OS in question.
[23:25] <Rummage> 2: I am trying to run a .divx file.
[23:25] <V13Axel> Rummage: Then you're not going to be able to get something from the repos. XD
[23:25]  * drc wonders who he has to talk to about the job of "Channel Curmudgeon":  You know, the old fart who says "1Tb HHD's not doing anything?  In my day...." and "Multiple IPs and Virtual Boxen?  In my day 300 baud modems...." and "Not only will that not work, it's a stupid idea in the first place". I really really want that job. GET OFF MY VIRTUAL LAWN!!!
[23:25] <Rummage> I can download the .deb and transfer it via USB.
[23:25] <projdark> whats a linux shell
[23:25] <Rummage> Which is what I was hoping to get when I initially asked.
[23:25] <V13Axel> Rummage: Try setting it up somehow to get internet access; That'd be the easiest way to do things.
[23:26] <_jesse_> Rummage: you can use apt-get to download the deb
[23:26] <V13Axel> Rummage: I'll do my best to try and get the .deb for you, however.
[23:26] <Rummage> That would involve a WinXP network bridge. Pain.
[23:26] <BlueBomber7> projdark: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_%28computing%29
[23:26] <illmortal> one more question... is there any chromium themes? looks like there's GTK+ Theme and Classic Theme... I'd like to know if there's additional themes out there (prefer black theme)?
[23:26] <Rodolfo> any news on the flash 11 incubator build for firefox under linux-ubuntu? download already available?
[23:26] <illmortal> wait... i retract that question!
[23:27] <projdark> BlueBomber7, how do i do this http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7818107&postcount=14
[23:27] <Rummage> _jesse_: No internet access for Ubuntu. Playing middleman with Windows XP
[23:27] <aeon-ltd> Rodolfo: flash 11? we're barely past 10.3 beta iirc
[23:27] <_jesse_> Rummage: ah, then you can get them from http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick
[23:27] <Rummage> _jesse_: Already there, but don't know how to search it by package name.
[23:28] <Rodolfo> aeon-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 page
[23:28] <BlueBomber7> projdark: 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.
[23:29] <Rummage> _jesse_: Not that I can see.
[23:29] <illmortal> damn there needs to be more themes for google chromium lol
[23:29] <josh_> projdark: 'shell' refers to a terminal in this case (or a vt console :] ).
[23:29] <BlueBomber7> projdark: If you have any other non-Ubuntu specific question about your issue, please PM me and I'll try to help.
[23:29] <MeanEYE> illmortal: more?
[23:29] <_jesse_> Rummage: are you looking at http://packages.ubuntu.com/ ?
[23:29] <_jesse_> it's halfway down the page
[23:29] <Stryker> where are the empathy user files are stored?
[23:29] <illmortal> lol ya, MeanEYE. though Chrome in general is still in infant stages, so it's understandable... Im going through this source: https://tools.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/google.html
[23:30] <Rummage> Yep.
[23:30] <illmortal> dunno where else there's custom themes
[23:30] <_jesse_> Rummage: well then, I assume you saw it
[23:30] <BaKeR> how dp you fchk somthin like that
[23:30] <BaKeR> bad typos
[23:30] <Opie> good evening
[23:31] <hiexpo> still trying  to figureout this hash sum mismatch when i try to update has been two days now
[23:31] <BaKeR> fsck anyone
[23:32] <BaKeR> from ubuntu cd
[23:32] <BaKeR> how
[23:32] <mia158> Hi 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] <arand> BaKeR: sudo fsck /dev/#target#
[23:32] <BaKeR> from terminal
[23:33] <edbian> mia158, Where did you get this hdd?  It seems to me that there is an encrypted partition
[23:34] <V13Axel> Rummage: Have you found them yet?
[23:34] <mia158> The 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] <jk09> hi everyone
[23:35] <Rummage> V13Axel: No.
[23:35] <jk09> is there a way to "apt-get install" a 32bit version on 64bit ubuntu?
[23:35] <V13Axel> You can find gstreamer and all it's utilities here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=names&keywords=gstreamer
[23:36] <RubenAlonzo> Hey 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 :)
[23:37] <V13Axel> Rummage: You can find gstreamer and it's utilities here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=names&keywords=gstreamer
[23:37]  * josh_ Hi-Fives RubenAlonzo
[23:37] <RubenAlonzo> thanks Josh
[23:38] <josh_> We've all had our little challenges, and it's nice to get through them.
[23:38] <zach> Ratty: hello
[23:38] <[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] <RubenAlonzo> I still got the windows machine but the missus uses that for facebook games and wow so this lil netbook has been awesome so far
[23:39] <hiexpo> Knowone else is having the issue when doing sudo apt-get update and upgrade     failed hash sum mismatch
[23:39] <RubenAlonzo> josh_: thats true, and i'm REALLY at ubuntu having only a couple full days experience so far since reformatting this thing
[23:40] <RubenAlonzo> hiexpo: have you tried sudo apt-get install first then doing update?
[23:40] <jk09> segfault: I'm wanting to install the 32bit version of the freeimage library. I thought it would be something like: sudo apt-get install libfreeimage3 -i386
[23:41] <hiexpo> RubenAlonzo, sudo apt-get install update ?
[23:41] <RubenAlonzo> jk09: try sudo apt-get install freeimage see if that works?
[23:42] <Kilian]> hi
[23:42] <RubenAlonzo> hiexpo: no, first install then wait for it to do that, then  after its all done try to update it
[23:42] <RubenAlonzo> hope that helps
[23:43] <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] <jk09> segfault: sudo apt-get install libfreeimage3 works for grabbing the 64bit version
[23:43] <RubenAlonzo> BTW, what exactly IS freeimage? whats it do?
[23:44] <hiexpo> RubenAlonzo, 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 days
[23:44] <jk09> its a library for loading images
[23:44] <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?
[23:45] <josh_> hiexpo: and sources.list.d o' course
[23:45] <hiexpo> josh_, thats what i am trying to find out
[23:45] <RubenAlonzo> hiexpo: 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] <jk09> segfault: I think i might end up making from source, thanks anyways
[23:46] <josh_> hiexpo: well, looking it over by hand does /etc/soruces.list have any suspicious entries?

[23:46] <[segfault]> jk09: try this...using packages.ubuntu.com as the repo - sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture <package>
[23:46] <josh_> hiexpo: s/soruces/sources in the last
[23:46] <RubenAlonzo> oh, brb ina bit
[23:47] <mia158> Hi 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, but
[23:47] <mia158> when I insert this password protected disk I get the same message and cannot boot it.
[23:47] <Suit_Of_Sables> what do you guys use to embed album art into flac files? it seems picard lacks this ability
[23:48] <[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] <MeanEYE> mia158: 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 however
[23:48] <Polah> Can someone tell me what the "%u" is after the firefox command in the default Firefox launcher on the panel?
[23:49] <jk09> segfault: I got you, trying it now. thanks :)
[23:49] <josh_> Polah: I'd assume a parameter for a url to be passed in :)
[23:50] <hiexpo> josh_, there is no etc/sources.list that i can fing
[23:50] <hiexpo> ^find
[23:50] <MeanEYE> hiexpo: /etc/apt/sources.list
[23:50] <josh_> hiexpo: doh, my bad
[23:50] <josh_> ya
[23:50] <trism> Polah: they'are all documented here http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ar01s06.html
[23:50]  * josh_ bows to MeanEYE
[23:50] <MeanEYE> josh_: lol :D no need... didn't want to interrupt eariler :)
[23:51] <mia158> MeanEYE: 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] <Polah> trism, thanks
[23:51] <hiexpo> ok what am i looking for that could be bad
[23:51] <Polah> Also, would anyone know why my GNOME side panel does not display launcher icons?
[23:52] <MeanEYE> mia158: 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/
[23:53] <hiexpo> josh_, yes only things in there are ubuntus and repos i have added
[23:53] <mia158> MeanEYE: 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 again
[23:53] <MeanEYE> mia158: no problem... gl with your laptop
[23:53] <mia158> sorry, not ubuntu issue
[23:53] <jk09> segfault: looks like that got it working, thanks for your help :)
[23:54] <josh_> hiexpo: hmm. Anything in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ ?
[23:54] <[segfault]> jk09: glad it worked for you :)
[23:54] <Kilian]> does anyone know something about the ubuntu one click button ? we have one and wont to add a repository there (www.unknown-horizons.org) ive heard we have to be added i a whitelist, is that true, and who is maintaining this list ?
[23:55] <Kilian]> *want not wont ;)
[23:55] <hiexpo> josh_, yes my repos it appears
[23:55] <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 offline
[23:55] <MeanEYE> MrProper__: you can lock your screen
[23:55] <MeanEYE> MrProper__: that way no one will be able to access it and you'll be able to log in from remote machine
[23:55] <andrea-lin> cigno
[23:56] <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 workaround
[23:56] <hiexpo> josh_, sure
[23:56] <he2> hello
[23:56] <he2> hello
[23:57] <MeanEYE> MrProper__: am not sure about remote desktop working when you log out...
[23:57] <joeb_> hi all .. does ubuntu have apt-file and auto-apt ?
[23:57] <MeanEYE> MrProper__: or you just need ssh?
[23:57] <electronplusplus> Hi folks, i need ideias. Right now I built a cluster with all the pcs of my college, i have already cracked a lot of password, hash and etc... now what? xD
[23:57] <MrProper__> SSH is enough, as long as it can see the network I can get a remote X session up and running if needed
[23:57] <arand> joeb_: yes.
[23:57] <josh_> joeb: apt-file yes, auto-apt yes
[23:58] <MeanEYE> !ot | electronplusplus
[23:58] <jethrot> hey will someone test out my text editor?
[23:58] <joeb_> josh_- and arand thanks .. debian squeeze is giving me so much headache
[23:58] <MeanEYE> jethrot: what programming language?
[23:58] <Kilian]> !help
[23:58] <joeb_> !help
[23:58] <jethrot> MeanEye: It's a linux console editor written in C
[23:59] <jethrot> I just need ppl to test an alpha version of it
[23:59] <arand> joeb_: Both are in squeeze as well, if that is the issue...
[23:59] <MeanEYE> jethrot: do I need to compile it?
[23:59] <joeb_> arand- what do you mean ?
[23:59] <jethrot> MeanEYE: yeah but it comes with a script
[23:59] <cryptodira> i foolishly upgraded to 10.10 from 10.04.2..... is it possible to revert to 10.04.2 WITHOUT having to format?  10.10 amd/64
