[00:03] <MK`> yeah that will do it
[00:04] <neverblue> there is no pasv/active check, it just becomes PASV, if the port range is defined\
[00:04] <YankDownUnder> pooltable, 32bit is fine and dandy
[00:04] <kwtm> arand: Thanks, that helps.  YankDownUnder: thanks, that was it.  Logan_: Thank you for responding.  You missed the part about "commandline" (my example was also a hint) and I don't have Update Manager on my system (Kubuntu).  Thanks anyway, though.
[00:05] <pooltable> yankdownunder so any more that 4gb i need 64 right

[00:19] <neverblue> done, i give up
[00:19] <mickster04> larious: what java stuff do you need?
[00:20] <mickster04> and if you don't have internet access, why?
[00:20] <larious> mickster04: Java runtime
[00:20] <waynerr> YankDownUnder, when i look at the winehq homepage it says that office 2007 installs but doesnt run
[00:20] <eshannon> terry_: touch: cannot touch `disk2/testfile': No such file or directory
[00:20] <YankDownUnder> waynerr, Crossover Office or "Playonlinux" will get you going mate.
[00:21] <Vizzle> I have a problem with Link aggregation, I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, the link only seems to be operating at 10mbit/s; it should be linking the 2x1gbit connections to 2000mbit/s
[00:21] <larious> mickster04: I need to install a software and need to complie the program befor installing it and this program required java
[00:21] <mickster04> http://pkgs.org/ubuntu-10.04/ubuntu-main-i386/default-jre_1.6-34_i386.deb.html
[00:21] <mickster04> larious: so how are you connected to irc?
[00:21] <terry_> eshannon: touch /media/2tb\ disk2/testfile
[00:21] <eshannon> terry_: What is the correct way to add a Hard drive. Might be easier to start over. Every time I have add a HD I have had problems
[00:21] <mickster04> larious: see that link above too
[00:21] <terry_> eshannon: Another typo
[00:22] <eshannon> terry_: that worked
[00:22] <larious> I use free browsing to connect to mirc on my xp machine
[00:22] <mickster04> larious: free browsing? and why can't you do that on ubuntu? you don't dual boot then?
[00:22] <eshannon> terry_: able to create file under root.
[00:23] <mickster04> larious http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/j/java-common/default-jre_1.6-34_i386.deb
[00:23] <eshannon> terry_: touch: cannot touch `/media/2tb disk2/testfile': Permission denied
[00:23] <mickster04> larious: try that and tell me if there are any missing dependancies
[00:23] <larious> mickster04: there is no line to download that
[00:24] <mickster04> larious: sorry you just made no sense?
[00:24] <blip-> Ubuntu, one distro to rule them all
[00:24] <terry_> eshannon:  Ok, well the problem is that you had created a mount point that had a two word directory name.  I didn't see that at first.  I don't ever do that.  It is best to not name files or directories that way.  If you want two words in the file or directory name, use a hyphen or dash or underscore like:  2tb-disk2  or 2tb_dsik2  If you don't follow that rule of thumb, it leads to all sorts of confusion, (just like what we just went through.
[00:24] <mickster04> larious: what do you mean no line, you either have internet access and therefore can download the file i linked you, or you don't and can't anyway?
[00:25] <induz>  I have x86 host and can even run x64 guests??
[00:25] <Jon--> I want to upgrade to 10.10 from 10.04, however I want to ensure that all of my packages and repositories will be supported. Is there a way I can check this?
[00:25] <larious> mickster04: no sense on what?
[00:25] <mickster04> larious: what do you mean no line, you either have internet access and therefore can download the file i linked you, or you don't and can't anyway?
[00:25] <Paulo39> is there possible to have that feature mac has which enable to change virtual desktop or application only by put the mouse on the corner?
[00:26] <Gaming4JC> So I setup tunnel, fixed the error, still not able to join an irc channel through it
[00:26] <larious> mickster04: I am trying to create internet on my ubuntu
[00:26] <Vizzle> Jon--,  10.10 sucks
[00:26] <Gaming4JC> stunnel* ... anyone have ideas/tips? :)
[00:26] <Jon--> Vizzle, orly?
[00:26] <eshannon> terry_: thanks I normal try not to make 2 word files. I thought it was just a label. How can I fix this problem and give permissions to the entire computer
[00:26] <Vizzle> Jon--, too many issues, ive stuck with 10.04
[00:26] <mickster04> larious: now i am really confused. you said you want to be able to download the file to your xp machine then use it in ubuntu, i don't understand what is the matter?
[00:26] <Jon--> Vizzle, I will as well then. I really hate unity though so I might skip 11.04 too.. :O
[00:26] <mickster04> Gaming4JC: not really, this is ubuntu support, not stunnel
[00:26] <terry_> eshannon: In my opinion, it is a bad idea to have a file-name or directory-name that is two words separated by a space.
[00:27] <terry_> eshannon: Is this a USB drive?
[00:27] <klemax> Any ideas whats the name of this theme? > http://img807.imageshack.us/i/xfceaugust.png/
[00:27] <Gaming4JC> mickster04: Yes, but I'm on ubuntu trying to configure it, and was using this tutorial http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=581210 :)
[00:27] <larious> mickster04: yea, reason why i am download it, is to complie a program that required java
[00:27] <mickster04> larious: and i gave you a link to install java>
[00:27] <Vizzle> Jon--, been running a editing server serving osx/win7 clients and haven't needed so much as a restart for months
[00:28] <eshannon> terry_: no this these are internal HD Sata connections. I agree bad idea to have file names with 2 words. I thought it was a label and did not matter.
[00:28] <Jon--> Vizzle, I know 10.04 is quite stable I just don't want to see package support get slower and slower as the release gets older
[00:29] <larious> mickster04: Ya have download it, I will have to reboot my computer to install it
[00:29] <mickster04> larious: fine, it may say missing dependancies, i will need a list of them if there are any....
[00:29] <Vizzle> Jon--,  it shouldn't considering 10.04 is LTS
[00:29] <mickster04> larious: but i googled this in about a minute...
[00:29] <larious> mickster04: Maybe I can figure that out myself
[00:30] <mickster04> larious: yeah. that is what i would suggest
[00:30] <Vizzle> can anyone help with modifying /etc/network/interfaces for purposes of nic bonding?
[00:30] <mickster04> larious: i dont understand what you mean by creating internet on you ubuntu set up though?
[00:31] <larious> mickster04: I browse free with a tunneling program through openVPN (your-freedom.com)
[00:31] <mickster04> larious: uhm you browse privately with that, it doesn't mean free?
[00:32] <benzaldehyde> mickster04: not all VPN services are free
[00:32] <don_jr> Hello, I have an old nvidia mx4000 vid card.  I got my drivers situated but it won't allow me to turn on desktop effects, is it possible I have the wrong driver or is there another work around?
[00:32] <mickster04> benzaldehyde: well i know that, but i thought he meant like not paying an ISP for services
[00:32] <larious> mickster04: it free, not only private, i pay no money and stay online6 hour a day, or I pay 5.6 dollar to stay online 24hr X 30 days
[00:32] <hwilde> mickster04, there is no such thing as browsing private, so just get over it.
[00:33] <Gaming4JC> benzaldehyde: mickster04: your-freedom.com is legit and free, seen it before but never used it on linux
[00:33] <mickster04> hwilde: jeez that's not an issue i am even discussing he said he browses for free with a vpn. it doesn't make sense that he won
[00:33] <Gaming4JC> larious: You could also try i2p/tor? :)
[00:33] <mickster04> t pay for internet just cos he uses a VPN
[00:33] <benzaldehyde> mickster04: me tookinda. though free VPN service is usually flagged as suspected sharing device on many whois networks, so just a little fyi for ya
[00:33] <reishi> join edubuntu
[00:33] <mickster04> benzaldehyde: i dont use a vpn
[00:34] <hwilde> whoever started this convo:   there is no such thing as browsing private, so just get over it
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> don_jr: try:  sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-185; sudo nvidia-xconfig      then reboot
[00:34] <mickster04> hwilde: start reading back a bit and you'll understand what is going on
[00:34] <larious> Gaming4JC: I only use freedom
[00:34] <hwilde> I don't care to read just stop it
[00:34] <nikj092> so i did a distro upgrade from kubuntu 10.04 to 10.10, and now the sound doesn't work.  if i remove my users pulse directory, it starts working, but as soon as i logout, and log back in, i can no longer play sounds until i delete that directory.  any ideas?
[00:34] <mickster04> benzaldehyde: my point is that he doesn't get free internet by using a vpn? the only reason you would want to is increased security
[00:35] <Gaming4JC> hwilde: there is such thing as uncensored and anyonmous browsing, but perhaps out of the scope of #ubuntu
[00:35] <don_jr> ActionParsnip will do
[00:35] <hwilde> that is just a myth, we can track your IP address very easily .
[00:35] <larious> benzaldehyde: there are more private on this for me and no one monitor my doing online
[00:35] <eshannon> terry_: any idea how I can fix my problem?
[00:35] <terry_> eshannon: Then just change the fstab entry.  Let's see what you have.  pastebinit /etc/fstab
[00:35] <Gaming4JC> hwilde: Through a proxy-chain? Good luck :P
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> don_jr: if it's bad then boot to root recovery mode and rename the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and remove the package
[00:35] <mickster04> larious: uhm if they want to they still can, the vpn comes out somewhere....
[00:35] <nikj092> hwilde: no, you can't.  why don't you read about tor
[00:35] <nikj092> can anyone help me with the sound problem though?
[00:36] <eshannon> terry_: pastebinit /etc/fstab
[00:36] <terry_> eshannon:  pastebinit /etc/fstab   #Post resulting URL here
[00:37] <larious> mickster04: ya, if 700 000 user are online, they can figure me out, since that I follw their rules and regulation

[00:37] <natali> i'm need help

[00:38] <don_jr> ActionParsnips I had to create and put in a xorg.conf to get my monitor to work, will that make a big difference?
[00:38] <mickster04> natali: this is ubuntu help, not language help
[00:38] <usmanity> Is it possible to fix sudo: can't open /etc/sudoers: Permission denied issue?
[00:38] <hwilde> anybody have insight with nvidia quadro 600?  nvidia-xconfig bricks the system.  I've tried installing all of the drivers.  nvidia-settings says it's not in use, but it is.
[00:38] <ActionParsnip> don_jr: the nvidia-xconfig command makes a decent xorg.conf, you can tweak it if you need
[00:38] <natali> oh. da..it is ubuntu.. but you know english language.
[00:38] <jrib> usmanity: yes, first step: how did you get into this situation exactly?
[00:38] <benzaldehyde> larious: if you trust that company, most of those companies will turn your information over even though many of them claim to keep no records which is why if i were to sign up for VPN and it didn't matter which country i would like to pony up a few dollars for ipredator--those guys are hauled into court all the time and never name names
[00:38] <mickster04> natali: not the point, that is off topic for here
[00:39] <don_jr> ActionParsnip alright thanks, I'll be sure and alter as needed then.  Will let ya know if it works or not.
[00:39] <natali> just i give you a string, you have to say it is correct or no.. please help me

[00:42] <usmanity> jrib: to change the file permission I ran chmod 700 /etc/*
[00:42] <nikj092> ActionParsnip: sound worked fine with 10.04, no problems at all
[00:42] <jrib> usmanity: you understand why that's not a good idea?
[00:42] <usmanity> and rm -rf /etc/sources/
[00:42] <usmanity> jrib: yeah now that i look at it. that was stupid of me lol
[00:43] <ActionParsnip> nikj092: I suggest you disable the onboard soundcard to make the system simpler. All I can suggest is that you log a bug and maybe have a command to run at logon to kill pulseaudio then delete the pulse folders you are deleting manually. Personally I'd use the onboardand ditch creativeas they refuse to support Linux
[00:43] <lofyer> l
[00:43] <jrib> usmanity: well you need to revert the permission changes you made.  The issue is you made a lot of changes.  The easiest solution is for you to reinstall.
[00:43] <usmanity> ActionParsnip: thanks for the link, i'm reading rihgt now.
[00:43] <ActionParsnip> usmanity: be careful with the file
[00:43] <ActionParsnip> usmanity: you may want to create a backup copy to make restoring a lot easier
[00:43] <nikj092> ActionParsnip: ditch creative?  lol, this is a high-end soundcard.  like i said, it worked fine with 10.04.
[00:43] <usmanity> jrib: i'm using a hosted machine, is it possible to reinstall the system on that?
[00:44] <jrib> usmanity: depends on your host I guess
[00:44] <ActionParsnip> nikj092: do you do sound editting and such?
[00:44] <usmanity> jrib: it's possible tho, right?
[00:44] <nikj092> ActionParsnip: yes, and i have a nice stereo system hooked up to it as well
[00:45] <jrib> usmanity: sure
[00:45] <ActionParsnip> nikj092: they aren't worth the hasstle dude, you'll find millions of people having issues with those things
[00:45] <ActionParsnip> nikj092: but disabling the onboard which you should have done, may make life nicer
[00:46] <nikj092> ActionParsnip: lol... i guess i am lost as to why the distro upgrade broke the sound.  the fact that it worked fine, and is now broken doesn't really point towards creative.
[00:47] <GatunoRox> hello again
[00:48] <GatunoRox> does anyone know a way to fix RT3090 ralink wireless driver?
[00:48] <mickster04> !ralink
[00:48] <ActionParsnip> nikj092: different kernel with differnet support. I'd create the script to do what you are doing at logon. Disabling the redundant sound device will definately help
[00:48] <nikj092> ActionParsnip: where do i go to disable the onboard sound device
[00:48] <ActionParsnip> nikj092: bios
[00:49] <nikj092> ActionParsnip: there's no way to do it with kubuntu?
[00:49] <reishi_> rmmod?
[00:49] <nikj092> with gentoo, i could just have it not load the kernel mod
[00:50] <ActionParsnip> nikj092: btw the creative isnt a high end card
[00:50] <terry_> eshannon:  sudo mkdir /2tb_disk2 ; cat >> /etc/fstab
[00:50] <terry_> eshannon: /dev/sdd1    /2tb_disk2   auto    noauto,users   0  0
[00:50] <aeon-ltd> nikj092: i don't know the specifics but you can't truly disable it, blacklisting is the closest
[00:50] <terry_> eshannon: Ctrl-d
[00:51] <ActionParsnip> nikj092: no you must disable it in BIOS so the OS doesn't see it, the BIOS controls the onboard hardware
[00:51] <terry_> eshannon: Last command is to hold Ctrl and hit  d
[00:51] <Yoshimi> Anyone here who can give me a bit of advice on UPnP/DLNA compliant media servers?
[00:51] <usmanity> any idea on what this means: sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0700, should be 0440
[00:51] <usmanity> sudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quitting
[00:51] <ActionParsnip> nikj092: try: http://www.dv247.com/computer-hardware/digidesign-hd1-pcie-pro-tools-8-hd-core-system--30762   if you want high end, your card costs about 100 quid
[00:51] <terry_> eshannon:  sudo mkdir /2tb_disk2 ; sudo cat >> /etc/fstab
[00:51] <terry_> typo
[00:52] <terry_> eshannon: Ok?
[00:52] <nikj092> ActionParsnip: wow, are you kidding me?  there are different types of creative cards, as with all manufacturers.  saying creative isn't high end is kind of a dumb statement.  are there more expensive cards out there? definitely
[00:52] <yuler> I've copied (rsync) /home to /media/general/home.   Before committing auto-mount with fstab, how do I manually mount /general/media/home to test?  Am I correct the new /home will affect my open apps?  If so, can I get around that?
[00:52] <Yoshimi> I'll guess that's a no
[00:52] <ActionParsnip> nikj092: its not high end, its good but not 'high' at all
[00:53] <nikj092> ActionParsnip: and btw, i don't think your right about having to disable it in the bios as the only option.  not loading the kernel module keeps the operating system from seeing it as well ;)
[00:53] <ActionParsnip> nikj092: i digress, hit your bios up and turn off the card,it will also free up a few resources in your system too
[00:53] <Andy-at-home> guys, I install the ftp service ages ago and dont have a clue about username and password, i have root access via ssh, whats the quickest way to get ftp going?
[00:54] <ActionParsnip> nikj092: sure but it's still using memory addresses and other stuffs, simply turning off the hardware is more graceful than simply telling the OS to ignore it
[00:54] <mickster04> Andy-at-home: reinstall? i dunno how much config yyou had?
[00:54] <ActionParsnip> Andy-at-home: simply use your login credentials
[00:54] <terry_> eshannon: In other words, create the mount point /2tb_disk2  and then make an entry in the fstab file:  /dev/sdd1    /2tb_disk2   auto    noauto,users   0  0
[00:54] <don_jr> ActionParsnip restarting now will let ya know if it worked, thanks for the advice.
[00:54] <ActionParsnip> Andy-at-home: allowing ssh as root isn't good for security
[00:54] <terry_> eshannon: And you'll need to reboot for changes to take effect.
[00:54] <nikj092> ActionParsnip: "memory addresses and stuffs"? lmao.  you're cracking me up dude
[00:54] <Andy-at-home> im not sure it is root
[00:55] <Andy-at-home> it could be anything tbh
[00:55] <nikj092> ActionParsnip: i think you may be stuck in 1996
[00:55] <terry_> eshannon: should have gone to pm for this....
[00:55] <ActionParsnip> nikj092: your call dude, I can only advise
[00:56] <pooltable> what program to use to set up a time limit on my computer ex not to be use fron 1600 to 2100?
[00:56] <terry_> eshannon: Actually no, you can just umount it and remount.  sudo umount /dev/sdd1  ;  mount -a
[00:56] <nikj092> ActionParsnip: i'm going to disable it in the bios.  however, i wanted you to understand that that's not the only way to do it.  the reason i asked how to do it in kubuntu, is that i wasn't sure if there was an interface to restrict what kernel modules got loaded
[00:56] <terry_> eshannon: That should do it.
[00:56] <ActionParsnip> pooltable: http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/tutorials/6584/1/
[00:56] <nikj092> ActionParsnip: or if there was a module blacklist file somewhere
[00:57] <ActionParsnip> !blacklist
[00:57] <pooltable> thanks actionparsnip
[00:57] <nikj092> thanks
[00:58] <ActionParsnip> nikj092: disabling it in bios is a cleaner way, as the OS won't even see the hardware, taking unecessary stuff out of the system makes things run smoother
[00:58] <Yoshimi> Anyone who's familiar with UPnP/DLNA compliant media servers?
[01:00] <pooltable> sorry still new what the command line t instaled timekpr
[01:00] <ActionParsnip> pooltable: guess
[01:00] <yuler> I've copied (rsync) /home to /media/general/home.   Before committing auto-mount with fstab, how do I manually mount /media/general/home to test?  Am I correct dynamically mounting media/general/home will affect my open apps?  If so, can I get around that?
[01:00] <ActionParsnip> !info timekpr
[01:00] <pooltable> sudo apt get
[01:01] <ActionParsnip> pooltable: close. it would be: sudo apt-get install timekpr
[01:01] <miles__> For all of my know how of Ubuntu, all of two months, i will never know the terminal lol.
[01:01] <ActionParsnip> pooltable: you'll need this ppa first: https://launchpad.net/~timekpr-maintainers/+archive/ppa
[01:01] <pooltable> Unable to locate package timekpr
[01:02] <ActionParsnip> pooltable: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:timekpr-maintainers/ppa; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y install timekpr
[01:02] <ActionParsnip> miles__: it's not essential but can be beneficial to learn some basic terminal stuff :)
[01:02] <Yoshimi> Nobody knows about UPnP media servers?
[01:03] <ActionParsnip> Yoshimi: like mediatomb?
[01:03] <Yoshimi> Yes
[01:03] <Yoshimi> Like mediatomb
[01:03] <Yoshimi> My issue is, nothing ever works
[01:03] <Yoshimi> lol
[01:03] <ActionParsnip> Yoshimi: thats literally all I know, that mediatomb exists
[01:03] <miles__> True action true, I've been handling my self off the software Center, only put linux on my laptop because windows would only BSOD.
[01:03] <pooltable> thanks actionparsnip
[01:03] <ActionParsnip> Yoshimi: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MediaTomb
[01:04] <ActionParsnip> miles__: thats why I switched in 2000, stupid OS wouldn't stop BSODing so I installed Mandriva 7 and all was well:):)
[01:04] <Yoshimi> I tried Mediatomb, as well as PS3 media server, and there's one other I can't recall the name of, nothing seems to work and I keep getting forced back to M$
[01:05] <miles__> This laptop is pretty bad already, uses SD-ram .99 GB of ram
[01:05] <ActionParsnip> Yoshimi: http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_webradio_with_icecast2_ices2    maybe
[01:05] <ActionParsnip> miles__: thats enough, just use light apps and light desktop
[01:05] <Yoshimi> I actually need video
[01:05] <ActionParsnip> Yoshimi: i believe vlc can do that
[01:06] <Yoshimi> Music doesn't matter so much as I have VNC through my phone and my server is directly wired into my surround sound
[01:06] <Yoshimi> It's video streaming over to my 360/PS3/XBMC Xbox
[01:06] <geoaxis> can some one talk sense into me why I should resist getting a Mac at work
[01:06] <ActionParsnip> Yoshimi: can they access windows shares?
[01:06] <miles__> Now i'm just trying to figure out how to install torrents and stuff trying to get used to the OS, i've already caught my self trying to swtich between workspaces at my windows pc
[01:06] <ActionParsnip> !ot | geoaxis
[01:07] <ActionParsnip> miles__: do you mean use torrents? ubuntu comes with transmission by default, just open the torrent files with that (legal torrents of course)
[01:08] <miles__> I know of transmission, I mean like setting up wine, installing other things etc etc.
[01:08] <benzaldehyde> miles__: i've heard about wine, never used it personally
[01:08] <pooltable> miles took me some time to get wine to work right
[01:09] <miles__> I don't need wine for alot of things since i have a windows desktop.
[01:09] <ActionParsnip> miles__: wine and torrents are completely seperate
[01:09] <miles__> I know that action, I'm talking about them separately
[01:09] <pooltable> miles yes wine and torrent are different
[01:09] <cgcardona> when I am in the command line and I do `ll` it shows me permissions, then the owner, and what is the next column of names?
[01:10] <ActionParsnip> miles__: I'd check the appdb for app compatibility in the first instance
[01:10] <ActionParsnip> cgcardona: group owner
[01:10] <pooltable> miles i use qbittorrent for my torrents
[01:10] <cgcardona> ActionParsnip: so each resource has both an owner and a group owner?
[01:10] <miles__> Transmission worked fine for me, downloading a 1gb file in about 20 mins
[01:11] <ActionParsnip> cgcardona: yes, you can add users to a group and make that group the 'group owner' and grant them different access (or same access) as the owner
[01:11] <cgcardona> i see. And what does it mean when I see www-data as the owner and group-owner?
[01:12] <miles__> Crazyist thing i've seen with linux so far is synthesia. theres a song thats has so many notes, that with a program that plays each note just like a normal panio, can only be played by linux. windows will mute the music out because too many channels are playing.
[01:12] <ActionParsnip> miles__: transmission has a webui too and you can manage them remotely,android phones have transdroid which can manage them from your phone (awesome)
[01:13] <ActionParsnip> cgcardona: www-data is also a group, you can add users to the group and get the access in the 2nd group of access listing
[01:14] <cgcardona> so if I have a file in /var/www/config/config.yml and I want to deny access to it how would I do that?
[01:14] <pooltable> also look in to VM box like me it was the only way i got my tom tom to update
[01:14] <miles__> Most things i really need to know is the DD commands... or the BB i can never remember, which ever command clones the internal Hdd to a external.
[01:15] <YankDownUnder> miles__, dd
[01:16] <ActionParsnip> cgcardona: add the users you want access to the www-data group then have the last group as zero access
[01:16] <miles__> Yeah, dd. Does anyone know the commands along with dd.
[01:17] <cgcardona> ActionParsnip: the only user I would like to have access to it is magento which I am guessing is the server. So I add the server as a user to the www-data group?
[01:17] <KramB> What can I use to run .iso files?  (not burning them) I want to Install Windows 7, but I just have the .iso.
[01:18] <don_jr> ActionParsnip that did llow me to enable desktop effects thank you, now how do I turn on compositing? or do I need to install compiz?
[01:18] <ActionParsnip> cgcardona: no, you add users,not the server
[01:18] <terry_> miles__: dd if=/files/to/cpy of=/where/to
[01:18] <ActionParsnip> don_jr: install compizconfig-settings-manager
[01:18] <winchendonspring> anyone here have Unity 2d running right now? If so what is the default Panel name? Something unity-2d-....?
[01:18] <Andy-at-home> how do i give an ftpuser permission to write to a specific directory? i was thinking chown but im not if it will overright other users like apache
[01:18] <don_jr> ActionParsnip thanks
[01:18] <ActionParsnip> don_jr: then press ALT+F2 and run:  compiz --replace
[01:18] <YankDownUnder> terry_, miles__ You can also add the bs=XXXXXXX to make dd faster - depends on how much RAM you've got...
[01:18] <miles__> perfect, now i just need to figure out the rest lol.
[01:19] <don_jr> after installing correct?
[01:19] <ActionParsnip> don_jr: no worries dude :D glad you got the gold
[01:19] <ActionParsnip> don_jr: yes, after
[01:19] <terry_> miles__: dd if=/files/to/cpy of=/where/to bs=1024  or something....
[01:19] <miles__> Hmm, I see..
[01:20] <YankDownUnder> I've used (again, depending on RAM available) a bs=65535 (64mb) which helped move dd quite a bit faster...
[01:20] <miles__> So if i were to image my entire linux install to the external....
[01:20] <terry_> miles__: dd if=/files/to/cpy of=/where/to bs=4096  or something....
[01:20] <Axlin> KramB: sudo mount PathToImage.iso /media/isoimage -t iso9660 -o loop
[01:21] <Axlin> KramB: and you can replace "isoimage" with whatever you want to call it. doesn't matter
[01:21] <KramB> Axlin: That's how I would install 7 on my system?
[01:21] <terry_> YankDownUnder: Tnx for the tip
[01:21] <Axlin> KramB: well, that's how you would mount it without burning it, anyway. to install, you're going to need to burn it to a DVD as far as i know. or find a way to write it to a pen drive
[01:21] <pooltable> any good working running at full speed nds emu?
[01:22] <rednovae> my nic sends < 10000 packets, and then it just quits sending packets. i'm on i386 maverick.
[01:22] <KramB> I have installed 7 on my Vista laptop by just mounting to my HDD, with something like Imgburn.
[01:22] <don_jr> after installing compizconfig-manager-settings and runin compiz --replace do I need to restart? it's still telling me to enable compositing
[01:23] <rfrittmann_> Does anyone know where the config setting for the default sound file is kept for Evolution email client? I'm trying to change the default sound for when an email is received.
[01:23] <ActionParsnip> pooltable: I imagine you mean nintendo DS.
[01:23] <benzaldehyde> guys i am in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ i added a .so plugin but when i ls the dir the one i added shows up green and does not show up at all in the add-ons manager under plugins nor add-ons. why is that file green and all the other .so plugins are black?
[01:23] <ActionParsnip> pooltable: http://linux.softpedia.com/get/System/Emulators/DeSmuME-21461.shtml
[01:23] <Axlin> KramB: well if i remember correctly, when i upgraded to 7 from XP, i just threw in the disc and it began initial installation without rebooting. things like copying necessary files over and preparing installation. then i had to reboot. not sure if i needed the dsic after or not
[01:23] <pooltable> actionparsnip yes
[01:23] <ActionParsnip> benzaldehyde: do you have any flash plugin packaeges installed?
[01:23] <Axlin> KramB: either way, i'm not so sure you'd be able to initiate the process from linux anyway. you can try though
[01:24] <ChainFace> .
[01:24] <ActionParsnip> pooltable: only use defacto abbreviations to save confusion
[01:24] <benzaldehyde> ActionParsnip: there are 4 other .so files, i suppose?
[01:24] <cgcardona> What does it mean when I see a number like 514 as the owner and group owner?
[01:24] <Andy-at-home> if i chown -R ftpuser . inside /var/www will apache still be able to access the directory?
[01:24] <benzaldehyde> ActionParsnip: but maybe no
[01:24] <bruenig> cgcardona: what
[01:24] <ChainFace> I'm booting from a cd, after I select try without making changes, nothing happens.
[01:25] <ActionParsnip> benzaldehyde: can you use a pastebin to give the output of:  lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf          thanks
[01:25] <Bluebill-Wolf> say whats the best means to control bass control when doing a live stream from the lappie via serio mix
[01:25] <Bluebill-Wolf> with out causeing the bass to buzz on the reciveing end
[01:25] <ActionParsnip> Bluebill-Wolf: there is no single best software solution for anything
[01:25] <pooltable> actionparsnip only use defacto abbreviations to save confusion i am lost sorry
[01:26] <cgcardona> bruenig: I installed magento and when I `ll` from the bash it shows that number as being the owner and group owner of files
[01:26] <Bluebill-Wolf> its not so much software but settings issues
[01:26] <ActionParsnip> pooltable: stuff like TCP, UDP, IP   stuff like that
[01:26] <ChainFace> is the best way to get helpful tips here just to ask the question without prefacing?
[01:26] <ActionParsnip> Bluebill-Wolf: could try: http://www.unixmen.com/linux-tutorials/954-add-equalizer-for-pulse-audio-in-ubuntu-lucid-lynx
[01:26] <Bluebill-Wolf> when i installed Ubuntu the audio settings are alot more sensitive then before
[01:26] <don_jr> ActionParsnip after running that last compiz --replace, it restarted my screen but when I run docky it still says I need to enable compositing
[01:27] <pooltable> actionparsnip sti lost ???
[01:27] <pooltable> stil
[01:27] <ActionParsnip> don_jr: hmm,compiz is a compoziting WM. If you enable plugins in ccsm, do you see them active?
[01:27] <benzaldehyde> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/sYVmc9UF
[01:27] <ActionParsnip> pooltable: using made up abbreviations like nds could mean anything at all
[01:27] <Bluebill-Wolf> yah when  was streaming my rave last night the base was recking havoic on the stream quality
[01:27] <Bluebill-Wolf> >.>
[01:27] <ActionParsnip> pooltable: abreviations like I stated are industry standard and understood by all
[01:28] <ActionParsnip> !natty | benzaldehyde
[01:28] <miles__> So, i were to copy my whole linux install to a ext hdd it would be "dd if=/ of=/media/passport"
[01:28] <pooltable> actionparsnip i see sorry so like this nest time nintendo ds emu ?
[01:28] <ActionParsnip> pooltable: yes, that would be clearer :D
[01:28] <benzaldehyde> ActionParsnip: i knew that, though i doubt this is natty specific
[01:28] <benzaldehyde> i'll try thought thanks
[01:29] <benzaldehyde> *though
[01:29] <ActionParsnip> benzaldehyde: doesnt matter, your release isn't supported ere until release day
[01:29] <pooltable> ok actionparsnip what about useing wine with NO$GBA nintendo game boy and ds emu ?
[01:29] <The_Sdw195> hi
[01:29] <erbun> evening all - I am running ubuntu 10.10 on an Asus laptop with an NVidia GTX460M.  I am having a simple problem, I hope, but have not had much luck tracking down an answer.  My problem is this - When trying to change the size of a window it seems the area of effect where the mouse pointer needs to be to change the size of the window is so small and sensitive that it often times takes several, several seconds to finally get it in the righ
[01:29] <erbun> t spot.  ANd thats if I use a USB mouse.  It is absolutely impossible with using the touchpad.  ANyone else had this problem?

[01:31] <snake__> better worded i suppose: what is the terminal server client used for?
[01:32] <Axlin> erbun: not sure of an actual solution to that, if any exist, but it is annoying, i agree. in compiz, it's possible to set a simple shortcut to initiate resize. for example, i have alt+right click set to begin resizing the window, no matter where my cursor is
[01:32] <ActionParsnip> The_Sdw195: can you give the output of the commands you are running and the output.please use a pastebin
[01:32] <rfrittmann_> snake_: the TS client connects to an RDP session, such as a Windows TS Server.

[01:41] <Kamakazi> can anybody help me get a Creative X-Fi installed under 10.10
[01:41] <ActionParsnip> miles__: you can use partimage instead ;)
[01:42] <ActionParsnip> The_Sdw195: ok try the original command, how's the output look?
[01:42] <miles__> What to you mean action.
[01:42] <tbruff13> Im about ready to quit on ubuntu can someone please help me
[01:42] <The_Sdw195> ActionParsnip:  http://paste.neurohack.com/view/YUWNj/
[01:43] <rodhash> Guys, does your system become slow when it starts using swap? I have 2GB of RAM and 1 GB of SWAP.. even with only 100MB of swap space, it's enough to slow down my ubuntu.. :(
[01:43] <p_res> tbruff13: What's the issue?
[01:43] <tbruff13> My sound only works coming out of headphones and the weather icon no longer shows the weather just prussure and the time of day
[01:44] <p_res> tbruff13: what about right-clicking on the weather icon and changing the prefs.
[01:45] <rodhash> Does anyone here have problem when the swap starts to be used?
[01:45] <miles__> I jsut want to image my hdd and put it on my external so i can take it other places.
[01:45] <digitalstimulus> has anyone ever had problems with distribution upgrade?  My concerns are 1) leftover "non-default" applications 2) breaking system configs 3) breaking/losing configs that I don't even remember setting up :)
[01:45] <travis_> no problems here
[01:45] <Axlin> rodhash: that's normally. that's because it's using your hard drive for temporary storage as opposed to your RAM, and it's significantly slower
[01:45] <tbruff13> p_res, okay if i change it to another location close to me it works that location must be down
[01:46] <tbruff13> p_res, what about sound this is like the third time this has happened ubuntu 10.10 64 bit
[01:46] <rodhash> Axlin: Yep, I just was trying to workaround that.. after opening lots of programs my ubuntu becomes slow..
[01:46] <p_res> tbruff13: yeah sometimes the weather servers go down at night i find. my local one does every night.
[01:46] <miles__>  So, i were to copy my whole linux install to a ext hdd it would be "dd if=/ of=/media/passport"
[01:46] <Axlin> sounds like you're running out of memory then
[01:47] <don_jr> ActionParsnip I'll have to mess with this more tomorrow, now I have no task bar on top or bottom and docky still says no compositing lol
[01:47] <p_res> tbruff13: odd. it definitely only works through h/phones?
[01:47] <tbruff13> p_res, headphones work, and even before when the sound work alsamixer kept speaker levels to all the way down every time i start my computer i have to turn them up manually and yes im listening now
[01:48] <p_res> tbruff13: sorry. can't help you out there.

[02:02] <kingbilly> eamon: I got disconnected did you say anything before "minecraft" ?
[02:02] <coz_> tbruff13,      http://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-driver.git;a=blob_plain;f=utils/alsa-info.sh
[02:02] <Axlin> xptical: you should be able to select gnome 2 as your session when you log in if you don't like unity. and then you'll be able to use your panel applets as well
[02:02] <coz_> tbruff13,  that link should open in firefox,, just hit ctrl+s  to save
[02:02] <Belial`> until 11.10
[02:02] <Belial`> then you're doomed
[02:02] <eamon> kingbilly: did you try opening the launcher's properties and put "minecraft" in as the command?
[02:03] <Sonja> are there any hacks to make 1024x600 screen resolution less painful? :) the vertical space is often insufficient

[02:25] <StepNjump> Would it be possible that it has to do with permissions to write to a directoryÉ
[02:25] <StepNjump> ?
[02:25] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: vsftpd
[02:25] <vitor> semitones, i don't think so

[02:30] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: change your permissions in /var/www

[02:36] <superlou> Did anyone lose sound with todays updates?
[02:36] <ex0a> ayecee: okay thanks i'll try that
[02:36] <GatunoRox> better yet
[02:36] <TheLifelessOne> slimjimflim: I'm connecting through an FTP client, and I'm getting 'Unable to create file' (553) and 'Failure retrieving contents of directory' (550).
[02:36] <GatunoRox> even using static ip does not connect
[02:36] <rage> ayecee: A java service I am running
[02:36] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: and you already ran the chmod command i gave you?
[02:36] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: did you restart your ftp session?
[02:36] <TheLifelessOne> Yes and no.
[02:37] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: well do it and see if it works
[02:37] <ayecee> rage: any idea what it's doing?
[02:37] <TheLifelessOne> It did. Thanks!
[02:37] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: no problem
[02:37] <TheLifelessOne> Except now my web browser can't access the folder.
[02:37] <TheLifelessOne> I'm getting a Forbidden message.
[02:37] <rage> ayecee: Its processing a large of amount of data from serveral client machines.

[02:38] <TheLifelessOne> On both the root directory, and sub-folders / file.
[02:38] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: you mean /var/www?
[02:38] <TheLifelessOne> I'm actually connecting from my desktop. The server is a laptop to my right.
[02:38] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: try doing it from the laptop
[02:38] <TheLifelessOne> Yes
[02:38] <TheLifelessOne> Laptop doesn't have working keys.
[02:38] <rage> ayecee: The root of my question is what could be lagging behind to allow such a low RAM/CPU usage with a high load average?
[02:38] <ayecee> rage: your concern is that load average is > 1 even though cpu usage is < 100%?
[02:38] <TheLifelessOne> I'm connected through SSH though
[02:38] <Jon--> Vizzle, I know 10.04 is quite stable I just don't want to see package support slowly wiene How painful is it to install GNOME3 shell on Ubuntu 10.04?

[02:38] <Jon--> wow
[02:38] <StepNjump> slimjimflim how do I look for a kernel module for my sound card?
[02:38] <rage> ayecee: Yes
[02:39] <Jon--> Vizzle, sorry about that.
[02:39] <Jon--> How painful is it to install GNOME3 shell on Ubuntu 10.04?
[02:39] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: ok so from your ssh prompt, do 'ftp localhost'
[02:39] <rage> ayecee: The system will most likily need an upgrade.
[02:39] <TheLifelessOne> Done, loggedi n

[02:39] <StepNjump> slimjimflim :(
[02:39] <jester7> Is there anyone here that could help me out with creating a script for resume.d?
[02:40] <ayecee> rage: so that's what causes the > 1 load average. several wake up, they're all processed, they all go back to sleep, until the next event that wakes several up. Nothing to be alarmed about.
[02:40] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: brb
[02:40] <GatunoRox> Is there someone who can help me troubleshoot my connection?
[02:40] <TheLifelessOne> slimjimflim: sure.
[02:41] <ayecee> GatunoRox: not without more information.
[02:41] <rage> ayecee: Hrmm okay, ta
[02:41] <ayecee> rage: or it could be that several are awake at a time. in any case, the usage is lumpy, probably because io is lumpy
[02:41] <GatunoRox> which info should I give prio to any diagnostics
[02:42] <GatunoRox> ?
[02:42] <Nintet> hi, what can i use to encode a sound file to mp3/webm ?
[02:42] <Nintet> audacity does not do it
[02:42] <ayecee> GatunoRox: hard to say. at this point, all we know is that you have a connection that may or may not be having troubles.
[02:42] <Nintet> mp4 rather
[02:42] <IdleOne> Nintet: I think winff does
[02:43] <Nintet> winff?
[02:43] <IdleOne> yeah front end to ffmpeg

[02:45] <phlamigo> I seem to remeber using WICD before, and it always showed me the MAC address of each wireless access point. yet, now that im using it again, there are no mac addresses.
[02:45] <ayecee> Ted__: desktop
[02:46] <IdleOne> yuler: you can by using a live cd. your /home is in / right now which is in use so can't be unmounted
[02:46] <Ted__> ok. thanks. it's a pretty powerful laptop so i know it will run fine. i was only curious if it made a difference
[02:46] <GatunoRox> I tested using several cables, using windows it can promptly stablish a connection using the same adapter
[02:47] <GatunoRox> tried giving a static network address using NetworManager
[02:47] <ayecee> GatunoRox: yes, but _how_ are you testing? ifconfig? ping? what?
[02:47] <GatunoRox> oh
[02:47] <GatunoRox> sorry
[02:47] <GatunoRox> ifconfig
[02:47] <GatunoRox> ping didn't work either
[02:48] <ayecee> okay, in what way did it not work? i.e. what did you try to ping and what was the error?
[02:48] <GatunoRox> it gives unknown Host
[02:49] <ayecee> and what did you try to ping?
[02:49] <GatunoRox> I tried pinging my switch, a famous website and the other computer in the network
[02:49] <GatunoRox> none worked
[02:49] <ayecee> what error did you get when pinging your switch?
[02:49] <GatunoRox> unknow host
[02:50] <GatunoRox> oh
[02:50] <ayecee> did you ping your switch by name or by ip address?
[02:50] <GatunoRox> sorry
[02:50] <GatunoRox> by ip
[02:50] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: ok i'm back had to take a call
[02:50] <GatunoRox> its not unknown host
[02:51] <GatunoRox> it's stuck on sending packets
[02:51] <tmbg> GatunoRox: you should see if layer1/2 work before trying layer3 (ping).
[02:51] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: so where are you at with this now?
[02:51] <tmbg> do you get a link light?
[02:51] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: did you ftp localhost from ssh?
[02:51] <TheLifelessOne> Yes
[02:51] <TheLifelessOne> I'm connected to it
[02:51] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: ok so do ls /var/www
[02:51] <GatunoRox> my network adapter Does work
[02:52] <ayecee> GatunoRox: what address does the card have according to ifconfig?
[02:52] <GatunoRox> my switch too
[02:52] <yuler> IdleOne: Would I boot to LiveCD, edit fstab, boot to system to see new home?
[02:52] <GatunoRox> it has no ipv4 adress
[02:52] <TheLifelessOne> slimjimflim: Inside FTP?
[02:52] <slimjimflim> yes
[02:52] <ayecee> GatunoRox: what address does the switch have?
[02:52] <mali> hey just wanted to say from earlier to some, about the classic desktop still there.. thank goodies :)
[02:52] <GatunoRox> 192.168.0.255
[02:52] <mali> beta still crashes heaps on me but now I am glad again :)
[02:52] <ayecee> GatunoRox: what's the netmask?
[02:53] <TheLifelessOne> slimjimflim: Done, but I'm not sure what I'm reading.
[02:53] <GatunoRox> my adapter can't get one
[02:53] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: pastebin
[02:53] <GatunoRox> but the switch is 255.255.255.0
[02:53] <ayecee> GatunoRox: no, what is the netmask of your network?
[02:53] <TheLifelessOne> sec
[02:53] <ayecee> GatunoRox: okay, 192.168.0.255 is not a valid host address on a 255.255.255.0 network. Did you mistype it?
[02:53] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: are you trying to retrieve the contents of /var/www?
[02:53] <Ray2> Downloaded isomd5sum it will not run from command line or terminal...any help
[02:54] <GatunoRox> sorry
[02:54] <IdleOne> !separatehome > yuler
[02:54] <GatunoRox> 192.168.0.1 is my gateway
[02:54] <TheLifelessOne> slimjimflim: http://pastebin.com/eNj4FwEg
[02:55] <GatunoRox> but the netmask is right
[02:55] <ayecee> GatunoRox: what address should your computer have?
[02:55] <GatunoRox> ranging from 192.168.0.140 ~ 192.168.0.200 wich is set by my switch
[02:56] <GatunoRox> *which
[02:56] <GatunoRox> tried dhcp and manual
[02:56] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: ok now go back to your desktop and ftp in from the command line the same way, except replace localhost with the laptop's lan ip
[02:56] <TheLifelessOne> Okay
[02:56] <ayecee> GatunoRox: what happens when you set the interface address with ifconfig instead of networkmanager?
[02:57] <TheLifelessOne> I get the same output when running the same command
[02:57] <GatunoRox> I don't know as I'm a total terminal newbie and I still don't know how to set it
[02:57] <TheLifelessOne> Actually, just a sec
[02:57] <ayecee> GatunoRox: try "ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.140"
[02:57] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: ok now what are you trying to do again, copy the contents of /var/www to your desktop?
[02:57] <Bluebill-Wolf> how do i use wine to open windows programs?
[02:58] <Bluebill-Wolf> <[02:58] <TheLifelessOne> slimjimflim: I'm just running the original command you gave me (ls -l /var/www)
[02:58] <Viking667> trying to install a package, but it's broken. libiso9660-7_0.81-4_i386.deb
[02:58] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: right, but what is it that you're trying to accomplish in general
[02:58] <Viking667> !v libiso9660
[02:59] <TheLifelessOne> slimjimflim: Allow access to /var/www through FTP so I can upload files.
[02:59] <TheLifelessOne> I've gotten that to work, but now I'm getting Forbidden message when trying to access it through a browser.
[02:59] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: k type exit into your ftp command line and navigate to the directory that has the file you want to upload
[02:59] <slimjimflim> on your desktop
[03:00] <nit-wit> Viking667, did you look in synaptic for it
[03:00] <TheLifelessOne> Through SSH or FTP?
[03:00] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: no just through the terminal on your desktop...not ssh or ftp
[03:00] <jasen_> Hey everybody.
[03:00] <TheLifelessOne> I'm running Windows on the destop. I can use Cygwin though.
[03:00] <Viking667> I'll try that.
[03:00] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: so if the file you want to upload is in /home/yourname, do cd /home/yourname
[03:00] <slimjimflim> oh
[03:00] <jasen_> I just upgraded to ubuntu 11.04, and my graphics are broken any time i try to use unity
[03:00] <jasen_> just a black screen
[03:01] <jasen_> any idea why?
[03:01] <TheLifelessOne> Windows desktop, Ubuntu server.
[03:01] <Ray2>  Downloaded isomd5sum from synaptic it will not run from command line or terminal...any help
[03:01] <TheLifelessOne> Don't have a driver for the desktops graphics card in Ubuntu. :D
[03:01] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: well this isn't a windows support channel, but i'll make an exception
[03:01] <ayecee> Ray2: what happens when you try?
[03:01] <jasen_> I did....it wasnt like that in 10.10
[03:01] <TheLifelessOne> alright, thanks
[03:01] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: do you have a file on your windows you want to upload to your ubuntu server?
[03:01] <Viking667> I'm getting this warning:  W: Failed to fetch http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/libc/libcdio/libiso9660-7_0.81-4_i386.deb 404  Not Found
[03:02] <TheLifelessOne> Nothing specific at the moment, no. Just testing to make sure it works before I use it in development.
[03:02] <huddy> hi. with regards to vlc how can ensure that a movie file that open vlc with is opened with the existing instance? rather than opening a new one each time which I find quite pointless.
[03:02] <huddy> would it be possible?
[03:02] <Axsuul> how do i view what a folder is set to in terms of chown?
[03:02] <Raikia> ls -la
[03:02] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: create a new text file on your desktop then for testing purposes
[03:02] <Viking667> no
[03:02] <jasen_> Does anybody else have a black screen on ubuntu 11.04?
[03:02] <Viking667> ls -lad
[03:02] <TheLifelessOne> Done
[03:02] <ayecee> jasen_: try #ubuntu+1
[03:02] <remanifest> Viking667: sudo aptitude install libiso9660-dev
[03:02] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: then open your windows command prompt
[03:02] <Ray2> ayecee, I get a directory not found from terminal and a path to file not found
[03:03] <TheLifelessOne> done
[03:03] <jasen_> Does anybody else have a black screen on ubuntu 11.04? Only when using unity.
[03:03] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: then cd into c:/....desktop
[03:03] <remanifest> Viking667: Change your apt repositories to pull from a different server
[03:03] <ayecee> Ray2: could you show me the command that you entered?
[03:03] <TheLifelessOne> Done.
[03:03] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: ok then type ftp
[03:03] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: then type cd /var/www
[03:03] <ouyes> jasen_, press esc,
[03:03] <TheLifelessOne> alright
[03:03] <nit-wit> Viking667, in synaptic open repositiries and make sure the universe repo is ticked on
[03:03] <Ray2> ayecee, isomd5sum
[03:03] <plwert> is there a way to force a process to flush its stdout buffer to the terminal? (I want fflush from outside the process, basically)
[03:04] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: then type put somefile.txt
[03:04] <Viking667> same error for that too.
[03:04] <jasen_> what is pressing escape going to do me...?
[03:04] <TheLifelessOne> It's not allowing me access to /var/www
[03:04] <ayecee> Ray2: and what was the exact error? if it's more than one line, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com
[03:04] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: what's the error?
[03:04] <TheLifelessOne> I'm getting a 550 Failed to change directory error.
[03:04] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: are you using the same username as you were when you did it through ssh?
[03:04] <TheLifelessOne> Yes.
[03:05] <nit-wit> Viking667, what is it your trying to get done it is in the maverick set up I'm running is there a Lucid release of the package
[03:05] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: and you didn't get the 550 before?
[03:05] <remanifest> Viking667: In Synaptic, "Settings>Repositories>Download From-Choose Best Server"
[03:05] <TheLifelessOne> It's all the same username. The one connecting to SSH, FTP, and all that.
[03:05] <jasen_> Is it because of my graphics card...?
[03:05] <TheLifelessOne> Not sure. Lemme double-check
[03:05] <remanifest> Errr -other, then choose best
[03:05] <Ray2> ayecee, Could not open location 'file:///home/ray/isomd5sum'
[03:05] <Viking667> I'm trying to install vlc, one of the prerequisites is libiso9660
[03:06] <remanifest> Yeah, just change your repos to the best server
[03:06] <TheLifelessOne> slimjimflim: I can't access it when using the LAN IP and localhost.
[03:06] <TheLifelessOne> On SSH.
[03:06] <ayecee> Ray2: uh. I'm not sure where you're entering it, but it doesn't sound like a terminal.
[03:06] <remanifest> "Settings>Repositories>Download From-Other>Choose Best Server"
[03:06] <jasen_> How do I fix a black screen for ubuntu 11.04? only when using unity?
[03:06] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: k one sec
[03:06] <Viking667> meh.
[03:06] <ayecee> Ray2: in any case, it looks like isomd5sum package has two binaries, implantisomd5 and checkisomd5
[03:06] <Bluebill-Wolf> any one know of a program that can do live visualizations from music being imput through either setero mix or a mic?
[03:07] <ayecee> Ray2: there is no binary named isomd5sum, so that's why you can't run it by that name.
[03:07] <Ray2> ayecee, isomd5sum: command not found
[03:07] <Ray2>  from terminal first from f command line
[03:07] <jasen_> Does anybody else have a black screen on ubuntu 11.04? Only when using unity.
[03:07] <Viking667> just doing it through synaptic, fetching updates
[03:08] <nit-wit> Viking667, are you installing vlc from synaptic
[03:08] <ayecee> jasen_: 11.04 is not yet supported here, please try #ubuntu+1
[03:08] <jasen_> how do i join ubuntu+1?
[03:08] <ayecee> jasen_: /join #ubuntu+1
[03:08] <Viking667> nit-wit: yup.
[03:08] <nit-wit> join a server #ubuntu+1
[03:08] <GatunoRox> how do I change the broadcast of the network adapter using ifconfig?
[03:09] <ayecee> GatunoRox: usually you should not. is it wrong?
[03:09] <GatunoRox> yes
[03:09] <nit-wit> Viking667, strange I have never had a cob=nflict with vlc have you installed the restricted extras
[03:09] <ayecee> GatunoRox: what is it set to, and what should it be?
[03:09] <GatunoRox> configured ip, now gateway's set to 192.168.0.255 instead of 192.168.0.1
[03:10] <ayecee> GatunoRox: i'm confused. are you talking about the gateway or the broadcast?
[03:10] <GatunoRox> broadcast, sorry
[03:10] <ayecee> GatunoRox: you feel the broadcast should be 192.168.0.1?
[03:10] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: ok check your /etc/vsftpd.conf and make sure it's the same as this http://pastebin.com/VYLSDaAZ
[03:10] <GatunoRox> I'm getting confused myself xD
[03:10] <TheLifelessOne> alright, just a sec
[03:10] <GatunoRox> yes
[03:11] <ayecee> GatunoRox: rest assured that 192.168.0.1 is not a correct broadcast address. That's the address of your gateway.
[03:11] <GatunoRox> now I'm confused lol
[03:11] <ayecee> clearly :)
[03:11] <GatunoRox> it doesn't work anyway
[03:12] <nit-wit> Viking667, if you tick a repo or add it you have to run an update have you done this?
[03:12] <ayecee> okay, so you've set your ip address using ifconfig, you ping 192.168.0.1, and it just sits there sending?
[03:12] <vitor> guys, the gateway might be any address from 1 to 254, the broadcast is always 255
[03:12] <Viking667> nit-wit: did, done, installed.
[03:12] <Jon--> I'd like to test out Unity. I run Ubuntu 10.04 however. What is the easiest way to do this?
[03:12] <nit-wit> Viking667, cool
[03:12] <Viking667> Thanks for the pointers. now I've got vlc from an even closer mirror than I previously knew about... my home city.
[03:12] <Viking667> Anyhow, I'm off to watch a DVD.
[03:13] <nit-wit> Viking667, was it the mirror
[03:13] <TheLifelessOne> slimjimflim: It looks the same, yeah.
[03:13] <GatunoRox> it keep telling me that host is unreachable on ping
[03:13] <Viking667> it was.
[03:13] <nit-wit> glad the help from others was here.:)
[03:13] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: from ssh do chmod 777 /var/www
[03:14] <ayecee> GatunoRox: if you run "route -n", is there an entry for 192.168.0.0 ?
[03:14] <ayecee> GatunoRox: say, does "mii-tool" return anything
[03:14] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: then try it again
[03:14] <TheLifelessOne> That fixed the Forbidden error. Checking FTP
[03:14] <Viking667> Anyhow, thanks all. bye
[03:14]  * Viking667 hopes we don't get any more flipping quakes down this way.
[03:15] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: for security reasons, you shouldn't leave it like that though
[03:15] <GatunoRox> it gives Input/Output error n my adapter
[03:15] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: if that works, try chmod 666 /var/www
[03:15] <GatunoRox> and the this
[03:15] <GatunoRox> eth1: negotiated 100baseTx-FD flow-control, link ok
[03:15] <TheLifelessOne> slimjimflim: It's LAN only, so security isn't a huge issue. Only I can connect to the server
[03:15] <Jon--> I'd like to test out Unity. I run Ubuntu 10.04 however. What is the easiest way to do this?
[03:16] <ayecee> GatunoRox: interesting. is there more than one ethernet interface on the machine?
[03:16] <GatunoRox> eth0 is on my notebook
[03:16] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: ok, just remember for future reference, that 777 allows binaries to be executed
[03:16] <TheLifelessOne> slimjimflim: I can upload and access through FTP, but PHP does not work.
[03:16] <GatunoRox> eth1 is on my desktop
[03:16] <TheLifelessOne> I get a HTTP 500 error when trying to run a PHP page
[03:16] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: good....lol that's a separate issue ;)
[03:16] <TheLifelessOne> Yeah. :D
[03:16] <GatunoRox> when i connected the USB HDD it configured eth1
[03:17] <littlebearz1> TheLifelessOne that's usually php server interface not being responsive
[03:17] <TheLifelessOne> Okay
[03:17] <TheLifelessOne> How can I fix that?
[03:17] <ayecee> GatunoRox: you're confusing me.. are we on the desktop or the notebook here?
[03:17] <GatunoRox> lol
[03:17] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: how do you know it's not working?
[03:17] <GatunoRox> now I'm on a desktop
[03:17] <GatunoRox> ubuntu on an external HDD
[03:17] <littlebearz1> TheLifelessOne restart php, check php-cgi or w/e that process is running
[03:17] <Meduka> hi guys
[03:17] <TheLifelessOne> I make a page in the root dir with <?php phpinfo(); ?> in it, and when I try to access it, I get 500 error.
[03:17] <GatunoRox> it was first run inta a notebook
[03:17] <TheLifelessOne> alright, sec
[03:18] <GatunoRox> which configured adapter eth0
[03:18] <ayecee> GatunoRox: which machine is the one with the problem?
[03:18] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: sounds like littlebearz1 can help you from here
[03:18] <Raikia> TheLifelessOne: Have you looked at apache's error log?
[03:18] <GatunoRox> desktop
[03:18] <TheLifelessOne> I  ran service php restart, and Ubuntu can't find the service.
[03:18] <GatunoRox> notebook's fine
[03:18] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: happy linuxing
[03:18] <TheLifelessOne> I'm not sure where that is.
[03:18] <ayecee> GatunoRox: okay, if you do ifconfig on eth1 instead of eth0, does that work better?
[03:18] <littlebearz1> TheLifelessOne xd, nvm. so other php script work?
[03:18] <TheLifelessOne> slimjimflim: Thanks. :D
[03:18] <Raikia> TheLifelessOne: service apache2 restart
[03:18] <GatunoRox> my problem is eth1
[03:18] <Raikia> PHP is not a service
[03:18]  * slimjimflim goes of to play with flowplayer
[03:18] <littlebearz1> Raikia yes it is
[03:18] <TheLifelessOne> I haven't tested other PHP pages.
[03:19] <littlebearz1> Raikia depending on how you run it, but mine is seperate
[03:19] <littlebearz1> TheLifelessOne try a new script put, echo "Hello World!"; in it
[03:19] <TheLifelessOne> Restarting apache did nothing.
[03:19] <Raikia> littlebearz1: He is running it as a part of Apache, obviously
[03:19] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: http://php.net/manual/en/function.phpinfo.php
[03:19] <Raikia> TheLifelessOne: Read "/var/log/apache2/error.log"
[03:19] <TheLifelessOne> That doesn't work either.
[03:19] <TheLifelessOne> k, se
[03:19] <Raikia> the end of it
[03:19] <GatunoRox> can I unninstall the driver for eth1 and try letting it selfconfigure once more?
[03:19] <Raikia> "tail /var/log/apache2/error.log"
[03:20] <TheLifelessOne> It's a permission denied error, it looks like.
[03:20] <littlebearz1> TheLifelessOne so if the the hello world doesn't work, I would suggest your apache.conf file and there might be issues with your php settings or permission
[03:20] <littlebearz1> TheLifelessOne go to the place where you put the script and in terminal do chmod 777 filename
[03:20] <Meduka> can someone help me get gtk to use libpng14? i'm sort of a linux noob; i tried installing libpng14 manually and then reinstalling gtk but i only ended up confusing myself more. a certain program i'm trying to run (sm-ssc) segfaults without libpng14, however i was able to build it fine with libpng12. i'm only half-sure this is what my problem is, though
[03:20] <TheLifelessOne> alright
[03:21] <slimjimflim> anybody know if there's a package for as2lib or as2ant?
[03:21] <TheLifelessOne> aha! that works!
[03:21] <littlebearz1> TheLifelessOne and for future lesson, don't use 777, read the permission
[03:21] <TheLifelessOne> But wouldn't it normally set it to allow PHP to execute it?
[03:21] <littlebearz1> TheLifelessOne i would guess 644 would work, but bleh, no clue
[03:21] <TheLifelessOne> Or is that a seperate configuration?
[03:21] <littlebearz1> TheLifelessOne not the directory no
[03:21] <TheLifelessOne> Alright
[03:21] <littlebearz1> TheLifelessOne the permission is by Linux so that's out of the hands of apache
[03:21] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: 777 is full permission for everybody
[03:22] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: 644 is best like littlebearz1 said
[03:22] <TheLifelessOne> Is there any way to make it automatically chmod any file put there?
[03:22] <ayecee> GatunoRox: I guess you could remove eth0/eth1 from /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and reboot, but I don't think it'd change anything..
[03:22] <TheLifelessOne> Yeah, I just tested 664 and it seems to work.
[03:22] <TheLifelessOne> 644*
[03:22] <TheLifelessOne> yes, definitely works.
[03:22] <littlebearz1> (slimjimflim): i'm lazy and quite unsecurity kind of guy lol, i should improve on that
[03:23] <Meduka> :/
[03:23] <slimjimflim> TheLifelessOne: chmod ### * will chmod anything in the current directory, but not the subdirectories
[03:23] <GatunoRox> what if e1000e(the drives) is a defective module?
[03:23] <slimjimflim> littlebearz1: yea i told him 777 too
[03:23] <TheLifelessOne> I know, I have to run -R
[03:23] <ayecee> GatunoRox: then there's little you could do to fix it :(
[03:23] <nes> anyway to backup my current ubuntu setup to .iso?
[03:24] <littlebearz1> TheLifelessOne yeah, i usually do chmod -r 777 / and work my way from there xd
[03:25] <ayecee> GatunoRox: what's the model of the laptop? perhaps someone out there has had this problem with this model and found a fix.
[03:25] <GatunoRox> lol
[03:25] <TheLifelessOne> Alright
[03:25] <GatunoRox> the laptops allright xD

[03:25] <GatunoRox> the problem's the pc net adapter
[03:26] <TheLifelessOne> Is there any way to automatically upload files at chmod 644, or do I need to do that manually?
[03:26] <ubuntu___> grub doesn't show up when I boot the computer; right now I'm trying to reinstall grub from the live usb...however when I type 'find /boot/grub/stage1' I get 'error 15: file not found'
[03:26] <ayecee> TheLifelessOne: use the umask command in the ftp client?
[03:26] <GatunoRox> the problem's this: 00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82566DM Gigabit Network Connection (rev 02)
[03:26] <TheLifelessOne> It's not really a full client, it's just a plugin for my editor
[03:27] <ayecee> GatunoRox: anything relevant in dmesg about the card?
[03:27] <ubuntu___> any ideas?
[03:27] <poitee> anyone able to help me vanquish some mdadm deamons?

[03:31] <shentino> I could use some GRUG myself
[03:31] <ayecee> poitee: it would be better to describe your problem.
[03:31] <GatunoRox> the log from that command is way too big
[03:31] <shentino> yarr
[03:31] <xangua> !grub2 | New0
[03:31] <GatunoRox> I outputted to file
[03:31] <New0> xangua tnx :)
[03:32] <GatunoRox> searched using the device id
[03:32] <GatunoRox> nothing I could tell unusual
[03:32] <ayecee> GatunoRox: you can see where the card is detected, and there don't appear to be any related errors further down?
[03:33] <natali> anyone can help me?
[03:34] <ayecee> natali: perhaps you could describe your problem here?
[03:34] <GatunoRox> I can't understand the log very well
[03:34] <Ov3R> ??
[03:34] <GatunoRox> can I send it?
[03:34] <ayecee> GatunoRox: sure
[03:34] <ubuntu___> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 <--- I'm following the steps there, but get an error at step 2... 'error 15: file not found'
[03:34] <Ov3R> what is your problem natali ??
[03:35] <ubuntu___> so far I'm not getting anything on google
[03:35] <yuler> I'd a problem moving /home (details @ http://pastebin.com/nn4aHkvG)  Help?
[03:35] <GatunoRox> http://pastebin.com/x1ubtWUn
[03:35] <New0> xangua tnx you, but my ubuntu work fine. my problem is that i change the "GRUB" menu to "0" timeout so the only thing that i need is to change the grub file again from the Live USB. i install ubuntu after windows was already installed
[03:35] <GatunoRox> the device number is 00:19.0
[03:35] <GatunoRox> and the adapter is eth1
[03:36] <poitee> nevermind I think I got it.. in mdadm.conf the UUID should be the first disk in the raid array not the raid array uuid correct?
[03:36] <xangua> New0: in ubuntu you can change the timeout with startup-manager
[03:36] <xangua> !info startup-manager
[03:36] <xangua> !info startupmanager
[03:37]  * ubuntu___ claws hair out
[03:37] <New0> xangua ok maybe i should boot to LiveUSB now and then i will try to understand. tnx for your time by now:)
[03:37] <ayecee> GatunoRox: reading
[03:38] <ayecee> wow, that wireless driver is freaking out there.
[03:38] <ubuntu___> lol ayecee
[03:38] <waiguoren> hi, what
[03:39] <waiguoren> sorry, whats the chinese channel ?
[03:39] <nit-wit> ubuntu, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20GRUB%202
[03:39] <Jon--> I'd like to test out Unity. I run Ubuntu 10.04 however. What is the easiest way to do this?
[03:39] <rww> waiguoren: #ubuntu-cn
[03:39] <mickster04> !ch | waiguoren
[03:39] <mickster04> !cn | waiguoren
[03:39] <mickster04> lol my bad :/
[03:40] <Jon--> I'd like to test out Unity. I run Ubuntu 10.04 however. What is the easiest way to do this?
[03:40] <gslack> Jon--, u will have to use the unity ppa's
[03:40] <rww> There isn't a 10.04 Unity PPA as far as I know.
[03:40] <Jon--> gslack, Is there a ppa for lucid? I didn't think so.
[03:40] <nit-wit> Jon--, virtual
[03:40] <mickster04> !patience | Jon--
[03:40] <gslack> im pretty sure they maintain a 10.04 ppa for testing
[03:40] <Jon--> gslack, They used to it's now offline
[03:41] <Jon--> (afaik)
[03:41] <ayecee> GatunoRox: everything looks good, and it's detecting a link as well. You know, perhaps clearing out the persistent-net-rules file and rebooting _might_ fix it.
[03:41] <gslack> well I ran it for fun in 10.04 about 6 months ago
[03:41] <gslack> last I dealt with it
[03:41] <rww> Current Unity didn't exist six months ago.
[03:41] <gslack> wasn't liking my setup
[03:41] <Jon--> mickster04, I have been repeating myself every 3-5 minutes for nearly an hour.
[03:42] <mickster04> Jon--: well then take that as a no to anyone knowing the answer
[03:42] <gslack> i found out how by doing a google search way back when
[03:42] <Jon--> gslack, That was when they had a PPA for 10.04.
[03:42] <GatunoRox> how do I clear them?
[03:42] <Jon--> I'll accept "make a boot CD" even, I just want to know the easiest way to test Unity
[03:43] <gslack> wbupd8team has some handy how to articles for simimilar things
[03:43] <ubuntu___> nit-wit: I'm actually using grub 0.97. I've looked at that guide though, and unless I'm missing something, I couldn't find my specific problem
[03:43] <ayecee> GatunoRox: open the file with a text editor, and remove the relevant lines. it's fairly clear when you see them.
[03:43] <Jon--> I wasn't sure if there was some way of doing it on 10.04
[03:43] <GatunoRox> whee's it located again?
[03:43] <oneman> hi
[03:43] <ubuntu___> I'm sure it's something terribly simple that's going to make me feel like an idiote once it's solved lol
[03:43] <nit-wit> ubuntu, you are correct tha is grub2 your using grub-legacy with lucid?
[03:43] <nit-wit> Or maverick
[03:43] <ayecee> GatunoRox: /etc/udev/rules.d, filename starts with 70
[03:44] <oneman> Ubuntu Natty beta crashes often on sandy bridge using intel graphics - please let me know what I can possibility do to help
[03:44] <ubuntu___> I'm using lucid w/ grub 0.97 (according to -v)
[03:44] <xangua> !natty | oneman
[03:44] <oneman> ok thanks
[03:44] <Nintet> hey, does haiku dual boot with 11.04?
[03:44] <xangua> ubuntu___: but lucid already comes with grub2 :S
[03:44] <mickster04> Nintet: i don't see why not?
[03:45] <nit-wit> ubuntu, what is your whole setup what distros?
[03:45] <gslack> Jon--, i did a google and found two articles right away
[03:45] <ubuntu___> xangua: yeah that's what I was wondering when I checked -v...lol
[03:45] <rww> haiku and natty are both offtopic for #ubuntu :<
[03:45] <mickster04> rww: lol yeah point :/
[03:45] <Jon--> gslack, Did you try what they said? Don't fucking troll me the lucid ppa is offline.
[03:45] <rww> Jon--: watch the language, please.
[03:45] <Jon--> I google things before I come here, I don't appreciate being dismissed like an idiot.
[03:45] <gslack> dude u want help or not
[03:46] <gslack> ur call im just trying to help u
[03:46] <Jon--> gslack, Don't tell me to use a PPA that I've said three times is no longer available.
[03:46] <MrJK> hi
[03:46] <gslack> u said it one time to me
[03:46] <MrJK> I'm trying to debug apache2
[03:46] <nes> heu

[03:46] <nes> hey*
[03:46] <gslack> and i dint tell u to do it again
[03:46] <MrJK> but, I got : warning: Temporarily disabling breakpoints for unloaded shared library "/usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_fcgid.so"
[03:46] <rww> !ignore

[03:46] <ubuntu___> nit-wit: ubuntu 10.04
[03:46] <gslack> u want the site i used?
[03:46] <Jon--> mickster04, Perhaps, I came in here to see if I could find one
[03:46] <gslack> or not

[03:47] <ubuntu___> nit-wit: I'm currently using a live usb by the way
[03:47] <mickster04> Jon--: try any of them, i assume you are using local ones? try the main ubuntu servers?
[03:47] <nit-wit> ubuntu___, just ubuntu is it a upgrade
[03:47] <gslack> follow these instructions, they are correct up to november http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-unity-in-ubuntu-10-0410-10.html
[03:47] <mickster04> MrJK: is there a #apache
[03:47] <gslack> try it if it works great if not sorry
[03:48] <MrJK> ok, cheers
[03:48] <Jon--> I'd like to test out Unity. I run Ubuntu 10.04 however. What is the easiest way to do this? Can I do it on 10.04 or do I need to somehow make a boot CD for a later version?
[03:48] <ubuntu___> well this is the live usb.. but yeah ubuntu on my HD is an upgrade from 8 point whatever
[03:48] <rww> gslack: That isn't for the current version of Unity.
[03:48] <gslack> now follow the link i gave u man
[03:48] <eamon> MrJK: /j #httpd
[03:48] <gslack> current version or one for 10.04
[03:48] <Jon--> gslack, That version is months old...
[03:48] <gslack> thats the issue here
[03:48] <mickster04> Jon--: try a 11.04 livecd?
[03:49] <jrib> Jon--: you may be interested in https://launchpad.net/testdrive
[03:49] <Jon--> mickster04, I may do that
[03:49] <Nintet> Jon--, just download the liveCD for the new beta ?
[03:49] <gslack> well its all there is for 10.04. t
[03:49] <Bluebill-Wolf> intersing
[03:49] <Jon--> Yeah, I may get a livecd
[03:49] <gslack> if its not good enough u will have to compile ur own from source
[03:49] <Jon--> I thought maybe there was package support somewhere for it
[03:49] <Nintet> if Jon is like me it will only take him 4 days ;)
[03:49] <Nintet> is there a 33mb install of unity?
[03:50] <Nintet> =D
[03:50] <Nintet> nevermind
[03:50] <mickster04> Jon--: there is, but like you say it is offline atm

[03:51] <terry_> SoobNauce: do it from liveCD.   But do you know   for sure something is wrong?  or...?
[03:51] <ubuntu___> if I get a piece of paper and write 'stage1' on it and put it on top my computer, do you think that'll fix it?
[03:51] <natali> mickster04, only pm
[03:51] <Jon--> jrib, this is one of the best package ideas I have ever seen.
[03:51] <gslack> yeah well i tried to help[ him and got insulted

[03:54] <ubuntu___> rww and arand, thanks

[03:55] <gslack> its not actually 2.0 by version number
[03:55] <ubuntu___> gslack: ahh
[03:55] <gslack> if u synaptic grub the grub 2 package will say so in description
[03:55] <ubuntu___> gslack: I think I knew that; when I checked my version with -v my gut forced me to do a google to see what it actuall ywas
[03:55] <ubuntu___> *actually
[03:56] <gslack> ok cool
[03:56] <Nintet> SoobNauce: NoobSauce! funny! are you having a problem with another OS?

[03:57] <gslack> k
[03:57] <v-himanshu> ok
[03:57] <SoobNauce> nintet: I'm having a problem soley with ubuntu.
[03:57] <Mannyuel> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[03:57] <Mannyuel>  sp-auth : Depends: lib32stdc++5 but it is not installable
[03:57] <Mannyuel> ......
[03:57] <Mannyuel> what do ido?
[03:58] <SoobNauce> Nintet: Ubuntu won't run the bitcoin executable because it thinks it's corrupt (I've run the executable on the netbook before).  It also won't copy a file from the desktop, possibly more corruption.  If I try to fsck it while it's mounted it will likely an-hero.
[03:58] <mickster04> bipolar_: yes
[03:58] <mickster04> bipolar_: sorry wrong nick
[03:58] <skooz2011> I click on places then my home folder and it opens shotwell actually if i click on anything under places
[03:58] <nit-wit> Mannyuel, look for the dependency in synaptic
[03:58] <SoobNauce> it's really weird filesystem handling that I'm not completely convinced is filesystem related

[04:23] <terry_> LittleRed: Ok, then nfs is what you want.
[04:23] <dogarrhea> pixbuf->create is super super slow (1 sec per call).  I need an alternative to directly access the pixels without using gtk. Is this possible?
[04:23] <terry_> !nfs | LittleRed
[04:23] <LittleRed> terry: thank you
[04:23] <terry_> NP:

[04:27] <mickster04> New0: just grub2
[04:29] <dogarrhea> time to waste some more time comparing vga_getscansegment to pixbuf create of gtk
[04:30] <New0> mickster04 sorry i didn't understand. for me it's chineess :)  can u give me a litte bit step by step. only if you can:) tnx

[04:44] <dogarrhea> anyone have a *fast* pixel reading suggestion?
[04:46] <ruan> now that my dads computer is off, it's disappeared from the list. i think it's detecting via bluetooth
[04:48] <nit-wit> New0, you can't fix that edit without being in gthe root of the install it is chroot or supergrub.
[04:49] <vaibzzz123> hi
[04:49] <nit-wit> mr_orange_, try synaptic, open the repoitory tab and see if the universe is ticked on as well, then reload.
[04:49] <Phase> Would anyone happen to know the name of the daemon that let you run it on a box with speakers attached.. then use another computer/client to play music to it?
[04:49] <vaibzzz123> ubuntu rulez!!!
[04:49] <Phase> It was pretty short name.. haven't heard of it in years, so maybe theres something better now..
[04:50] <mr_orange_> nit wit, how do I do that?
[04:50] <nit-wit> mr_orange_, you mean get to synaptic it is in the menu-system-admin
[04:51] <brverg> how do i convert open office word proceesor to microsoft windows words?
[04:52] <bastidrazor> yuler: you may have missed a few steps. look at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving
[04:52] <ruan> Phase: im not sure but i think ssh can do it via mocp
[04:52] <brverg> how do i convert open office word proceesor to microsoft windows words?
[04:52] <nit-wit> brverg, save as a ms doc ordocx
[04:52] <rww> brverg: open in openoffice, save as microsoft word document from the Save As dialog.
[04:52] <ruan> yeah doc
 New0, you can't fix that edit without being in gthe root of the install it is chroot or supergrub what do u mean?
[04:52] <Phase> ruan: Hrm, I'll look into it. Thanks. :)
[04:52] <dogarrhea> cool
[04:52] <New0> sorry i was going outside for a bit
[04:53] <mr_orange_> nit-wit, i dont see the repoitary tab
[04:53] <dogarrhea> there's no such thing as a "get pixel" function out there
[04:53] <ruan> Phase: moc(p) is a terminal audio player. since sound doesn't carry over via ssh, but plays on the host machine
[04:53] <Abhijit> i installed samba. and now there is one samba guest account automatically added to my computer. i can see it at the login propmt. what is this account for? also it ask for password, but i dont know what is its password?
[04:53] <ruan> !info moc
[04:53] <dogarrhea> i have to read all 2 million or so pixels of the screen
[04:53] <dogarrhea> and dereference some pointer

[04:53] <Phase> ahh
[04:53] <vaibzzz123> i'm planning to upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04, will this delete my files?
[04:53] <Abhijit> O.o
[04:53] <nit-wit> New0, the edit of the file must be done from being inside of the install by chrooting in. The supergrub is the link I posted, geez download that get in fix the edit and move on.
[04:54] <ruan> i've played audio via mocp. works well too
[04:54] <Abhijit> vaibzzz123, nope
[04:54] <Abhijit> help
[04:54] <ruan> Abhijit: do you have wine installed? just wondering

[04:54] <Abhijit> ruan, no
[04:55] <mr_orange_> nit-wit, i dont see the repoitary tab in synaptic package manager

[04:56] <hiexpo> if i created a shell script and iwant to execute it in a new terminal profile how would i go about that
[04:56] <ruan> though Public/ should be that, maybe it's a symlink
[04:57] <mr_orange_> nit-wit, I don't see anything that says universal

[05:22] <littlebearz1> nit-wit i meant the URL supergrubdisk, seems so LONG
[05:22] <toad__> I was downloading from the software center, I'm assuming certain things are terminal programs
[05:22] <toad__> how do I open or run a program in command line?
[05:22] <nit-wit> littlebearz1, google
[05:22] <toad__> Ive read all the command line basic tuts but none of them go into detail
[05:22] <littlebearz1> toad__ alt f2 and type in program name
[05:22] <toad__> :(
[05:22] <toad__> I did
[05:22] <toad__> didnt run it

[05:22] <FloodBot1> toad__: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

[05:22] <littlebearz1> toad__ man commandline
[05:22] <toad__> Firefox, but I downloaded via the software center
[05:23] <mickster04> toad__: alt+f2 gnome-terminal
[05:23] <toad__> no manual entry for command line
[05:23] <littlebearz1> toad__ it's usually in /sbin or /bin or something like that
[05:23] <ljsoftnet> toad__ then its already installed, no need to look for the download
[05:23] <ljsoftnet> toad__ look for it on the menu
[05:23] <littlebearz1> toad__ i believe there's search in menu non?
[05:23] <toad__> ok if I found something in a directory, how do I open it?
[05:23] <toad__> or run?
[05:24] <toad__> Is there a way to get info about things in a directory?
[05:24] <LittleZeasel> toad__ ... http://www.linuxcommand.org/ ... while it might not give instant answers, it leads you step by step through all terminal commands and gives you ways to find stuff using the terminal ... A great starters guide that helped me a lot (shame that I won't be needing any longer, since my computer obviously doesn't work with Linux. Who'd have thunk it, a machine, not compatible with Linux ..)
[05:24] <toad__> ok cool
[05:25] <toad__> I've been looking for a good resource
[05:25] <LittleZeasel> :) I like that resource ... would like it more, if I had a Linux to go with it :P
[05:25] <toad__> but all the places I have tried have been very minimal and don't go into any detial or really explain anything, its all the basic commands like ls, cd, what '~' means etc..
[05:25] <littlebearz1> LittleZeasel lol, i'm using windows as we speak, 7 isn't that b ad
[05:25] <toad__> w7 isnt bad no
[05:26] <toad__> it hasnt really given me much trouble, I always used osx before using windows, but have been rather familiar with it before, but now that I have ubuntu installed I probalby wont use win7 much more except for work
[05:26] <toad__> I love photoshop far too much to give it up
[05:26] <weecol> hey guys whats going on?
[05:26] <littlebearz1> i have cygwin on it so doesn't matter
[05:26] <LittleZeasel> it's horrible when it comes to security and viruses :( ... tried to get a pc of a friend fixed and win7 didn't give me ANY controle whatsoever over changing/adding/removing files, etc.
[05:26] <littlebearz1> toad__ there's still gimp
[05:26] <LittleZeasel> Pain in the neck ...
[05:26] <LittleZeasel> Photoshop wouldn't work with Linux_
[05:26] <LittleZeasel> ?
[05:27] <littlebearz1> LittleZeasel oh, I had Enterprise edition with full service
[05:27] <hiexpo> gimp
[05:27] <hiexpo> !gimp
[05:27] <littlebearz1> hiexpo yeah, i'm running windows 7 enterprise, gimp, cygwin, and filezilla server
[05:28] <littlebearz1> hiexpo it's like photoshop, i like it cause you can customize it to your liking
[05:28] <New0> nit-wit UNetbootin not working for me; it say "Default" and "List Partition" when i enter in to that it do nothing
[05:28] <toad__> I know ps wont work, I've seen gimp but I love photoshop too much
[05:28] <zaery> i just downloaded the ati drivers off amd
[05:28] <taggerbear> are you there?
[05:28] <New0> nit-wit so what can i do? plz
[05:28] <hiexpo> yes i know littlebearz1
[05:28] <toad__> LittleZeasel, gimp is cool cause you can use MIDI with it
[05:28] <toad__> :P
[05:28] <zaery> 's website, and i have a watermark that says "amd unsupported hardware" in the bottom right. it
[05:28] <LittleZeasel> ack ... if Photoshop doesn't work on Linux, then I can'tuse Linux after all :( ... - I tried to use Gimp once. It was even less intuitive than PS is and I finally learned the PS ropes ;) I was not gonna relearn the stuff for Gimp - not after I spent a fortune for a PS licence
[05:28] <fillayu> what's the command which can start the wireless gui tool
[05:29] <toad__> heh yeah littlebearz1
[05:29] <toad__> I use photoshop for work almost always
[05:29] <toad__> that and dreamweaver/illustrator
[05:29] <littlebearz1> (fillayu): gui? um. not sure, I only know the command , ifconfig wlan0 up, dhcpcd
[05:29] <zaery> i just downloaded the ati drivers off amd's website, and i have a watermark that says "amd unsupported hardware" in the bottom right. it's a 6970M(sorry, getting used to a new keyboard and hitting enter instead of ' on accident)
[05:30] <moondog> I'd like to run DWM in Ubuntu.. I installed it via the Ubuntu software center... but don't seem to know how to activate DWM
[05:30] <zaery> is there any way to remove the watermark? it appears to run fine
[05:30] <littlebearz1> toad__ you must be front guy then, I'm da back guy using oracle, mysql php etc
[05:30] <fillayu> littlebearz1  okay. I think gnome has a gui tool which can scan the wireless
[05:30] <toad__> lol littlebearz1
[05:30] <toad__> kinda
[05:30] <toad__> I do some development, but I really enjoy the design part of the job
[05:30] <hiexpo> i have found that open source applications work even better than those ps thousand dollar applications that you HAVE to buy for pc  hehe   like gimp and blender
[05:30] <littlebearz1> fillayu check the menu, i believe menu has search function
[05:30] <toad__> hiexpo, photoshop is far from a piece of sh**
[05:31] <hiexpo> no photoshop is good i am not saying that
[05:31] <LittleZeasel> hiexpo I guess it has to do a lot with what you are used to ... I have used Photoshop ever since it came out - for over 10 years now. And it's taken that long to just learn me the basics of that program..
[05:31] <littlebearz1> toad__ it's good in terms of commercial context, for personal enjoyment gimp is awesome
[05:31] <moondog> anyone, help with DWM?
[05:31] <toad__> well jah, heh
[05:31] <LittleZeasel> GIMP was impossible to use intuitively ... so I quickly returned to PS
[05:31] <toad__> I couldnt imagine designing a website in gimp
[05:32] <toad__> but then again i've never really used gimp
[05:32] <pcpower> and gimpshop is lol
[05:32] <littlebearz1> toad__ why not xd?
[05:32] <fillayu> littlebearz1  http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/
[05:32] <fillayu> it's the tool
[05:32] <fillayu> I found out it
[05:32] <littlebearz1> i'm developing littlebearz.com using gimp lol
[05:32] <toad__> cause I'm a noob
[05:32] <toad__> and cant figure out how to a run a program in command line yet
[05:32] <toad__> :(
[05:32] <littlebearz1> fillayu what happend to your menu lol? i swear it's there
[05:32] <pcpower> I agree gimp is 9000 times harder to use than photoshop
[05:32] <New0> nit-wit?
[05:32] <New0> nit-wit UNetbootin not working for me; it say "Default" and "List Partition" when i enter in to that it do nothing
[05:33] <Repentium> Moondog: log out and choose DWM session from the menu.
[05:33] <fillayu> littlebearz1　I can't find it in the menu.
[05:33] <littlebearz1> toad__ um. depends on program, you could potentially write a script chmod +x filename and run it ./filename
[05:33] <littlebearz1> fillayu oh that's werid
[05:33] <nit-wit> New0, try the any os option
[05:33] <hiexpo> toad__, what app are you wanting to run ?
[05:33] <yuler> gimp UI is where PS was @ v2
[05:33] <fillayu> littlebearz1  is the command nm-applet
[05:34] <moondog> Repentium: I don't get a menu
[05:34] <moondog> I've logged out... all I get is a login screen, no menu
[05:34] <New0> nit-wit this is the thing that he show me only 2 options and when i press enter on them it do noghing
[05:34] <New0> maybe UNetbootin not good for it
[05:34] <nit-wit> New0, can you burn a cd
[05:34] <littlebearz1> fillayu sorry xd, I'm using windows and i use terminal
[05:34] <moondog> I have a default Ubuntu install and installed DWM from the software center
[05:34] <Dewi> how do I disable automount?
[05:34] <New0> nit-wit do u know about other program to usb?
[05:34] <Dewi> in unity-based desktop...
[05:35] <New0> nit-wit sorry no CD
[05:35] <nit-wit> New0, hold on i got one for windows or linux
[05:35] <moondog> so if I could figure out how to get a menu on the login screen, I'd probably be set
[05:35] <New0> tnx nit-wit
[05:37] <Repentium> moondog: first pick the user you want on the log-in screen, then the session menu shows up on the bottom of the screen.
[05:37] <nit-wit> New0, this is a linux that will multiboot distros from a usb, you will probably need to mess with it, but it boots supgrub I have it on one of mine
[05:37] <nit-wit> http://liveusb.info/dotclear/
[05:37] <moondog> ok, I will try that, thank you
[05:37] <ericy> fillayu: Might I guess that you lost the Network Manager (nm-applet)  "button"  on your menu bar?
[05:38] <fillayu> ericy  correct
[05:38]  * moondog hugs Repentium 
[05:38] <moondog> sweet, I see the menu
[05:38] <moondog> thanks so much
[05:38] <New0> nit-wit what? the UNetbootin?
[05:38] <fillayu> ericy  do you have that  one?
[05:38] <Repentium> yeah, doesn't show up until you click on a user...
[05:38] <nit-wit> New0, no the multiboot link
[05:38] <essial> so is ubuntu.com down for everyone or just localized
[05:38] <nit-wit> New0, http://liveusb.info/dotclear/
[05:39] <tensorpudding> it's up
[05:39] <essial> weird
[05:39] <theholder> hi all
[05:39] <ericy> fillayu: You can restart it by Alt-F2 (to run a program). Enter nm-applet  but the parameters... wait...
[05:39] <moondog> next question... they talk about customizing DWM via recompiling, but I don't think installing via the software center installs the source
[05:39] <nit-wit> New0, the windows one is missing on the regular part of pendrivelinux still looking for it
[05:39] <moondog> guess I could just get it on my own, but I'd rather do things via the software center
[05:39] <essial> yeah dns fail
[05:39] <essial> as you were :)
[05:39] <fillayu> ericy hmmmm
[05:39] <New0> nit-wit tnx
[05:40] <toad__> is there a way to adjust screen brightness in commandline?
[05:40] <nit-wit> New0, here is the windows multi loader. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/
[05:40] <moondog> prolly can't install source via the software center I'm guessing
[05:40] <fillayu> I'm at costa coffe bar now
[05:40] <paris> how to insert text into open office writer?
[05:40] <Dewi> anyone know what drives automount in unity?
[05:40] <nit-wit> New0, they both do the same thing allow a menued multiboot setup as well as single distros
[05:41] <New0> ok tnx :) i will try it nit-wit
[05:41] <SudoGhost> Dewi, Natty questions would be better asked in #ubuntu+1 :)
[05:41] <Dewi> SudoGhost: it's not, it's netbook remix
[05:41] <Dewi> SudoGhost: but I'll try there anyway
[05:42] <ericy> fillayu: I can't give you the parameters (because I'm not running Ubuntu now; I'm running Lubuntu) Can someone else running Ubuntu go into the 'Process Viewer' and hover your cursor over the nm-applet process and tell us the command parameters (I believe its something like: --sm-disable ???
[05:42] <SudoGhost> Dewi, my mistake, I'm not familiar with the netbook remix. :)
[05:42] <randomuser> paris, use keyboard. press firmly with quickly on desired keys.
[05:42] <fillayu> ericy  why does it need the params
[05:42] <Repentium> Moondog: you can get the source code from Suckless.org.
[05:42] <Dewi> SudoGhost: actually might be edition. Whatever the short-lived one with unity is
[05:42] <fillayu> sounds a little complecated
[05:43] <LittleZeasel> ericy I could to ... if you tell me where to find the Process Viewer
[05:43] <moondog> yeah, but not via the software center eh?
[05:43] <New0> nit-wit "Select a linux....." ubuntu 10,.10 right?
[05:43] <moondog> I can do that
[05:43] <nit-wit> New0, where
[05:43] <HearMeWhisper> hey guys. anyone else have a desktop glitch from cairo-dock?
[05:43] <New0> Universal uUSB
[05:43] <New0> *USB
[05:44] <New0> nit-wit ^
[05:44] <nit-wit> New0, which one du=did yoiu load
[05:44] <nit-wit> New0, the mor loinux version
[05:44] <New0> pendrive linux nit-wit
[05:44] <nit-wit> *linux
[05:44] <nit-wit> New0, installed in windows or lnux
[05:45] <Dewi> how do I control running services?
[05:45] <New0> windows
[05:45] <ericy> LittleZeasel: fillayu: The gui application to view your running processes (I'm running Lubuntu this week and I can't remember the exact name)
[05:45] <New0> nit-wit windows
[05:45] <aauthor> If I wanted a BASH script to open several gui applications (at the same time) how could I do this?  If I just put each one in a bash script (one after the other) it will wait for one to close before opening the next one.
[05:45] <nit-wit> New0, use the extra loader at the end to load the supergrub iso
[05:45] <quiescens> aauthor: put an & at the end of each command that opens in a gui to load it in background
[05:45] <littlebearz1> ericy top
[05:45] <nit-wit> New0, there is a loader not associated to a distro
[05:45] <RxDx> u89
[05:46] <fillayu> littlebearz1  ericy  pstree?
[05:46] <aauthor> quiescens, thanks I'll give that a try right now.
[05:46] <New0> nit-wit ah blank right? i see it
[05:46] <New0> tnx
[05:46] <ericy> LittleZeasel: fillayu: The process viewer where you can view and kill your processes. It the standard big gnome application in your Ubuntu menu!
[05:46] <mykal> Hi all. my graphics performance seems to have slipped over the last month. Just jerky and kinda weird. i have all the updates. lspci gives 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV6 [Vanta/Vanta LT] (rev 15)
[05:47] <littlebearz1> ericy no clue xd, i use kill -pid i think
[05:47] <bonjoyee> how to increase spacing between lines in irssi?
[05:47] <mykal> Any suggestions, is old machine, just want it working as it was
[05:47] <aauthor> quiescens, brilliant!  Worked like a charm!  Thanks for your help!
[05:47] <ericy> LittleZeasel: fillayu: Look it your accessories or system menu.
[05:47] <tr3nton> !java
[05:47] <LittleZeasel> ericy ... uhm.. you mean the Terminal? Or the Software Manager?
[05:47] <nit-wit> New0, thats the one tick the use a iso and link it up
[05:47] <LittleZeasel> or Disk Usage Analyzer?
[05:48] <fillayu> ericy  yeah
[05:48] <fillayu> which one
[05:48] <New0> nit-wit tnx
[05:48] <RxDx> is there any way to keep the unity panel fixed (i mean, no auto-hide)?
[05:48] <tr3nton> !ot
[05:48] <HearMeWhisper> quit
[05:48] <ericy> LittleZeasel: fillayu: It's the standard installed BIG GUI application in your Ubuntu menu.
[05:48] <Cane> Hi guys. Is there anyway to speed up aptitude packages downloading? I just had to wait for 100 or so packages to download one by one, and they were only coming in at around 1.5Mb/s
[05:49] <nit-wit> New0, hope this works
[05:49] <zaery> What
[05:49] <bastidrazor> Cane: try different mirrors
[05:49] <New0> nit-wit hope too :)
[05:49] <offsense> anyone use nagios monitoring system in here??
[05:49] <bonjoyee> Cane: use aria2c or axel to fetch them...
[05:49] <zaery> what's the best program to record a window and any/all audio that I would hear?
[05:49] <LittleZeasel> Nope, ericy .. in neihter one of my Applications Places or Systems do I have anything that's remotely called BIG GUI, small gui, gui anything, nor big nor small ...
[05:50] <Cane> Is there no way to use mutliple mirrors and download say 5 at a time?
[05:50] <LittleZeasel> I have a System Monitor if that helps?
[05:51] <ericy> LittleZeasel: fillayu: No. That's my description.  It is right there in the system menu! It views and kills pocesses. Yes.
[05:51] <New0> nit-wit ok it's taking is time now :) 1 min then i will reboot and i will see what happen tnx for now :)
[05:51] <nit-wit> New0, no prob
[05:51] <LittleZeasel> well.. that's what the System Monitor can do ... if that helps ... I can open that one ..
[05:51] <LittleZeasel> K
[05:52] <waynerr> i run some nagios servers but none on ubuntu
[05:52] <LittleZeasel> so what do you need otu of the System Monitor again, ericy?
[05:52] <ericy> LittleZeasel: fillayu: Now hover over the nm-applet process  and it shows you the "command line" that the system used to start it.
[05:52] <fillayu> let me see
[05:52] <waynerr> offsense, if it is nagios specific just better to ask in #nagios probably
[05:53] <ericy> LittleZeasel: fillayu: Find nm-applet process ...
[05:53] <LittleZeasel> nm-applet -- sm disable
[05:53] <^Phantom^> Are there any programs for ubuntu that can wipe data from a drive at a military-standard level?
[05:53] <wfaulk> I'm having a problem with an iscsi root installation
[05:53] <LittleZeasel> that comes up when I hover my mouse over it "nm-applet --sm disable"
[05:53] <fillayu> ericy I got it
[05:54] <wfaulk> when the initrd does iscsistart, it fails
[05:54] <Bluebill-Wolf> how do you install thigns from a rar file?
[05:54] <fillayu> ericy  LittleZeasel   nm-applet --sm-disable
[05:54] <wfaulk> if I do it manually in the busybox environment, it works fine
[05:54] <LittleZeasel> yep
[05:54] <ericy> LittleZeasel: fillayu: OK  "nm-applet --sm-disable"  Now do Alt-F2 and run that.
[05:54] <fillayu> ericy  LittleZeasel   I use ps aux | grep "nm-apple"
[05:54] <wfaulk> anyone have any experience with that?
[05:54] <fillayu> ericy  LittleZeasel   great
[05:55] <ericy> LittleZeasel: fillayu: I have had my nm-applet  icon leave my top panel so many times...
[05:56] <slakcphil> ^Phantom^:  are you trying to wipe an entire disk or just a partition?
[05:56] <LittleZeasel> what does the nm-applet do in first place?
[05:56] <^Phantom^> slacker_nl, an entire disk
[05:56] <hiexpo> ericy, you can alwyas do desktop restore and it will restore to origanal
[05:56] <^Phantom^> It has lots of work stuff on it, and I'm gonna give it to a friend.
[05:56] <^Phantom^> I want to make sure he *never* has the chance to recovery anything.
[05:56] <slakcphil> ^Phantom^: dban works great on most stuff and has DoD style wipes
[05:57] <^Phantom^> slakcphil, thank you :)
[05:57] <slakcphil> you can download the ultimate boot cd and it has it in there as well as some other great tools
[05:57] <ericy> LittleZeasel: fillayu: Well I think you know what nm means. Applet means a program packaged to run ONLY  in the panels.
[05:57] <^Phantom^> sweet
[05:58] <RodneyChops> Heya, just installed Ubuntu and I'm having  a display issue right off the hop. :S
[05:58] <ericy> hiexpo: How do you do a "desktop restore".
[05:58] <fillayu> ericy  correct
[05:59] <LittleZeasel> Uhm ... I don't know what nm means... I'm a first time Linux User... Just trying it out (failing at that and getting frustrated with stuff)
[05:59] <slakcphil> ^Phantom^ yeah man no problem, i think dodshort is the one to go with (once you are at the dban prompt) be careful to backup data and keep all usb sticks etc unplugged from the machine while running dban
[05:59] <hiexpo> ericy, let melook one sec
[05:59] <^Phantom^> heh
[05:59] <^Phantom^> so boot from the disc with ONLY the drive being wiped plugged in, then?
[05:59] <New0> nit-wit hi. now when i reboot it give me BOOT: so what should i do? write what
[05:59] <RodneyChops> Anybody know what its called when you get that line that goes up slowly accross the screen? Like when you see a TV screen on TV, its like a refresh rate problem or something.
[06:00] <slakcphil> choose hdd, then dban, then type dodshort
[06:00] <^Phantom^> RodneyChops, page tearing
[06:00] <^Phantom^> ?
[06:00] <ericy> LittleZeasel: fillayu: nm - network manager  (wifi etc)
[06:00] <slakcphil> after booting the ubcd
[06:00] <hiexpo> ericy, open terminal and type or paste this gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel »
[06:00] <LittleZeasel> ahhh
[06:00] <LittleZeasel> thank you ericy :)
[06:00] <fillayu> ericy  understand
[06:00] <ericy> hiexpo: OK.
[06:00] <mister2> is there a quick command to print a directory tree with files to file?"
[06:01] <hiexpo> ericy, you are running gnome right
[06:01] <RodneyChops> Might be it, Well i have that, and I can't get rid of it, and its really annoying. Haha, any ideas? Updated display drivers and it won't let me change the refresh rate, but i'm pretty sure its supposed to be 60hrts
[06:02] <LittleZeasel> Ok... I'm going to try one last time to get Linux on my Toshiba running ... CentOS failed.... Fedora14 failed... if Ubuntu 10.10 fails, too ... THEN I'm going to go back to Windows.... is anyone here for advice for a while, if I need it, trying to get it to run?
[06:02] <New0> nit-wit?
[06:02] <ayecee> LittleZeasel: people are here pretty much throughout the day :)
[06:02] <hiexpo> littlebearz1, might try pupy it will probally work
[06:02] <hiexpo> puppy
[06:03] <ayecee> what model of toshiba, btw?
[06:03] <slakcphil> LittleZeasel try slackware 12.2, it runs on my satellite m45 with pentium m and ati radeon 200m
[06:03] <BlackWeb> Hey would anyone know how to make so each workspace has its own wallpaper
[06:03] <BlackWeb> own different wallpaper
[06:03] <slakcphil> LittleZeasel, although it ran centos 5.2 quite stable
[06:03] <Raikia> LittleZeasel: define "fails"?
[06:03] <hiexpo> BlackWeb, yah you have to use compiz to do it
[06:03] <slakcphil> and 8.10
[06:04] <BlackWeb> I have Compiz installed and I searched all options but cant locate it
[06:04] <New0> nit-wit hi. now when i reboot it give me BOOT: so what should i do? write what
[06:04] <LittleZeasel> Toshiba Satellite a505-S6033 with Realtek Wireless Card 8191SE (which acc. to the dirver download seems ident to the 8192SE) and a Nividia GeForce 310M ... CentOS Kernel didn't support the Wireless Card and it seems Fedora is having the same issue
[06:04] <LittleZeasel> So I am hoping Ubuntu might be a better choice?
[06:04] <hiexpo> BlackWeb, google differant wallpaper on each workstation with compiz
[06:05] <Raikia> BlackWeb: http://tinyurl.com/3vvumev
[06:05] <slakcphil> LittleZeasel have you tried pc-bsd?
[06:05] <RodneyChops> Ok, i looked up screen tearing, thats not what I have.  Its a slightly darker horizontal bar that still scrolls from bottom to top, when it hits the top it starts over :S
[06:05] <LittleZeasel> what's pc-bsd?
[06:05] <BlackWeb> Alrigth I'll try messing with it a little more and see, if i can get it, Thanks :)
[06:05] <weecol> lilo prompt?
[06:05] <madprops> http://dpaste.com/hold/528843/
[06:05] <hiexpo> Raikia, lol
[06:06] <slakcphil> LittleZeasel freebsd with all the X stuff ready to go and pbi's are software installed at a click of a mouse
[06:06] <nit-wit> New0, when I boot super grub I get a couple of choices I forget all of them have you pecked around, your just trying to use it to boot into the OS with the edited file to reset the time out
[06:06] <kundan> Hi... whats the status with intel 855gm and compiz/kde bling on ubuntu
[06:06] <slakcphil> it's like freebsd for girlies
[06:06] <Raikia> LittleZeasel: I run a realtek 3572 driver and it works great.  I know it might not mean much, but you might have some luck
[06:06] <Jordan_U> weecol: Could you clarify your question / statement?
[06:06] <weecol> rep not quest
[06:07] <Raikia> ?
[06:07] <weecol> responce
[06:07] <Jordan_U> !who | weecol
[06:07] <New0> nit-wit ok so what do i need to type in "BOOT:"?
[06:07] <LittleZeasel> Ahh.. slakcphil I used a lot of hte step by step instructions on the CentOS boards and Fedora Boards - until finally someone told me, that they didn't support the Realtek W-lan card nor GraCa ... how do I go about that pc-bsd thing_
[06:08] <nit-wit> New0, not that I know of without a picture of what your talking about 'm not sure can you exsplain a little more detailed
[06:08] <Jordan_U> New0: Are you trying to use Super GRUB2 Disk with unetbootin?
[06:09] <nit-wit> Jordan_U, the pendrive multiboot
[06:09] <New0> nit-wit ok. when i boot from the USB i got black sreen with BOOT: and now i have to type something but i dunno what
[06:09] <eamon> does anyone know how to change firefox back to ask what to do with the file when you have selected "do this automatically with this type of file from now on"?
[06:09] <nit-wit> Jordan_U, he needs to get into Ubuntu to reset the grub timeout beyond )
[06:09] <nit-wit> *0
[06:10] <New0> Jordan_U i tried but no good. so now i try the Univesal USB
[06:10] <ayecee> eamon: I think it's in tools->options->general
[06:10] <Jordan_U> New0: To use Super GRUB2 Disk with unetbootin you need to select "Floppy" as the image type.
[06:10] <slakcphil> LittleZeasel http://www.pcbsd.org/
[06:10] <ayecee> eamon: or maybe edit->preferences->general
[06:10] <RodneyChops> Anybody know how to fix a 'slightly darker scrolling horizontal bar'  like the vertical refresh rate is wrong or something. :(
[06:10] <New0> nit-wit i heard somehow that there is good way with chroot but i dunno how to so...
[06:11] <eamon> ayecee: no... that's for the location. I want the beheviour (save file, open file, etc)
[06:11] <New0> Jordan_U ok will try to do
[06:11] <Jordan_U> New0: You can also just edit the timeout from a linux liveCD.
[06:11] <nit-wit> New0, I didn't know that about unetbootin, Jordan_U would be better in the chroot det or others
[06:11] <LittleZeasel> sklakcphil ... that's linux based, too? I'll haev a look at it - thank you
[06:11] <slakcphil> LittleZeasel i ran it with fluxbox and it was kinda light on the system ( it ships with kde 4.5.5)

[06:13] <Jordan_U> New0: Do you know how to mount your Ubuntu partition?
[06:13] <eamon> Zelozelos: that guide is for firefox 2.0, the options haave changed and it no longer works:-/

[06:14] <Zelozelos> eamon this what i searched...youll find somethign ;)
[06:14] <New0> Jordan_U * Terminal
[06:14] <slakcphil> LittleZeasel you have some reading to do... it will be good to learn about BSD with it though. you will love the rc.conf file, it makes life simpler than all the lsb sh17
[06:14] <eamon> hiexpo: what do you mean? firefox is the application. I'm downloading files in firefox
[06:14] <Zelozelos> eamon firefox change "do this automatically with this type of file from now on

[06:23] <dogarrhea> cool! open source documentation is useless! googling svgalib gl_getpixel gives me the same information 100000 times! Xlib is useless!
[06:23] <webPragmatist> how can i backport something from natty to lucid?
[06:23] <Zelozelos> slakcphil i think theres 8 ethernet and its just between 1 desktop connected w ethernet and a lappies thats wireless
[06:24] <Zelozelos> sorry i have sticky keys
 what OS's are they running?
[06:25] <New0> nit-wit Jordon_U tnx you very much :) finally:D
[06:25] <dogarrhea> gl_getpixel how do I use this function? everyone and their mom seems it's useful to copy paste the man page 200000 times onto the internet
[06:25] <dogarrhea> and xlib is broken and useless
[06:25] <nit-wit> cool
[06:25] <Zelozelos> slakcphil deskie is upgraded from 9 to 10 and lappie has vista which i dont need/use and 10.10 freash install
[06:25] <chgtg> I downloaded acroread ( bin format) from adobe.com and installed it nomarlly. But I snap a graph not to paste gimp from acroread.
 I just use sftp with ubuntu machines for my small file sharing setup
[06:26] <Zelozelos> slakcphil is it easy to use?
[06:26] <chgtg> the same one can be pasted into libreoffice write.
[06:26] <chgtg> any chance?
[06:27] <New0> nit-wit good now i did update-grub and will do now reboot and i see if it's ok
[06:27] <chgtg> any advice?
 setup ssh on the machines and choose > places > connect to server > choose ssh > and once logged in you will see a sftp folder on the desktop that you can drag and drop into
[06:27] <dogarrhea> why is this problem sooo hard... get the color. of a pixel. on the screen. do this at least 3 times a second.
[06:28] <Zelozelos> slakcphil how do i set up ssh?
[06:28] <webPragmatist> what's add-apt-repository ?
 sudo apt-get install ssh
[06:28] <webPragmatist> do i have to install something?
[06:28] <webPragmatist> trying to run "add-apt-repository ppa:nginx/$nginx"
[06:28] <Zelozelos> slakcphil ahh ok i think i can fig it out from there....wasnt sure if ssh was a program or what
[06:29] <dogarrhea> can anyone tell me if ubuntu supports the easy (conceptually) problem of reading the color of a pixel on the screen 3 times a second?
[06:29] <Zelozelos> slakcphil, ty
 tailor the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file to suit your needs(defualt may be fine if you do not forwsrd ports to them
[06:29] <dogarrhea> i mean... this problem should be trivial
 no prob
[06:29] <dogarrhea> there's a pixel on the screen thats' a certain color at .333333 second intervals.
[06:30] <slakcphil> good night all
[06:30] <dogarrhea> but for soem reason, gtk, svgalib, xlib, gtk++ kde qt, pygame and literally hundreds of other graphics libraries
[06:30] <dogarrhea> all literally fail to do this
[06:30] <dogarrhea> why can't i just get the pixel color of the desktop window every .3333 seconds at some x, y
[06:30] <webPragmatist> woo
[06:31] <dogarrhea> i can eat food 3 times a day...
[06:31] <dc5ala> dogarrhea, you probably will need a programming language to do that
[06:32] <dogarrhea> dc5ala, c++ been there done that using  gtk, svgalib, xlib, gtk++ qt
[06:32] <dogarrhea> they all fail
[06:32] <dogarrhea> i've spent a week on this
[06:32] <dogarrhea> the problem is trivial.
[06:32] <dogarrhea> i can do it in windows, but now i need to do it in linux
[06:32] <New0> nit-wit WOW now i'm with ubuntu without any SuperGrub2 or something like this. thank you very very much :) :D
[06:32] <dogarrhea> bitblt works wonders in windows
[06:32] <dogarrhea> why isn't there something in linux
[06:32] <hongfeng> hello everybody
[06:33] <dogarrhea> .333 second pixel reading (OF ONE PIXEL)
[06:33] <dogarrhea> shouldn't be this difficult
[06:33] <dogarrhea> it's like linux doesn't care about graphics
[06:33] <dc5ala> dogarrhea, wrote something with Java once, that grabbed the screen content and tracked it for changes and showed them in a grid
[06:33] <dogarrhea> that won't work. it's not high performance enough.. java
[06:33] <dogarrhea> accessing pixels
[06:34] <LittleZeasel> slakcphil ... the pc-bsd doesn't support my WLAN card either :/ ...
[06:35] <dc5ala> dogarrhea, ugh? i could track motions of windows and in a mini view i saw active regions
[06:35] <dogarrhea> this is the problem:  reading a pixel 3 times a second
[06:35] <dc5ala> dogarrhea, and .333 seconds in not really that fast
[06:35] <dogarrhea> exactly
[06:35] <dogarrhea> yet nothing out there does it
[06:35] <dogarrhea> on my core i5
[06:36] <dogarrhea> whatever api i use, it fails to do this. sure it can read a pixel 1 time per second. and i've isolated it to basically the one line that reads the screen.
[06:36] <dc5ala> dogarrhea, i think the problem is more on your side, no offense
[06:36] <wfaulk> dogarrhea: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/import.php
[06:36] <dogarrhea> the one api call.. it reads the screen and takes at least 1 second to do it. but there is no getpixel api
[06:37] <dogarrhea> i ahve to read the screen first.
[06:37] <dogarrhea> and there's at least 10 lines of set up code and break down code just to read the screen.. all thies display pointers and delete window crap
[06:37] <dogarrhea> that don't add anything useful to the description of the problem in code
[06:39] <dogarrhea> wfaulk. that doesn't solve my performance requirement
[06:39] <dogarrhea> i'm not going to be doing file io like that.
[06:39] <dogarrhea> i already know doing file io on images is too slow. doing any io from files is toooo slow
[06:39] <wfaulk> seriously, 1/3s you can't optimize for?
[06:40] <wfaulk> You don't know what you're doing
[06:40] <silasrm> oi
[06:40] <dogarrhea> maybe not. but i can't find out how to do it either
[06:40] <dogarrhea> since every man page is copypasted into google search results 200 times
[06:40] <dogarrhea> i can't find set up and tear down code in man pages..
[06:40] <New0> hi everyone i have a Q: do you know where there is a place like group of Linux people get together? in NY
[06:40] <dogarrhea> there's no performance metrics or anything else like that there either
[06:41] <dogarrhea> and xlib and everything related are broken apis
[06:41] <dc5ala> dogarrhea, performance in Java was no issue for me grabbing screen content, the bottleneck was more to write each frame in a jpeg, but if you dont need only 1 pixel you can do all in memory
[06:41] <dogarrhea> dc5ala, where's the api that puts 1 pixel into memory
[06:42] <dogarrhea> without reading the entire screen
[06:42] <dogarrhea> all 2 million pixels or so.
[06:43] <dogarrhea> where's the magical getpixel that only reads 1 pixel, not 1 pixel from a bitmap that contains 2 million pixels in memory
[06:44] <wfaulk> are you running this on an 8088?
[06:45] <Eyce> hello
[06:46] <dc5ala> dogarrhea, it does not matter really matter even if you read the whole screen, it's fast enough to record movies at >25 fps, the thing that costs time is when you want to compress is, but just copy from frambuffer to memory is fast
[06:46] <New0> hi everyone i have a Q: do you know where there is a place like group of Linux people get together? in NY
[06:47] <tensorpudding> New0: search for LUG's in NY
[06:47] <Loshki> New0: perhaps www.nylug.org
[06:47] <littlebearz> Ummm
[06:47] <New0> tensorpudding Loshki tnx:)
[06:47] <Eyce> hello, i have ubuntu server 10.10 and i am trying to figure out how to install the wifi wirelessly , so far i can only get this working plugged in.
[06:48] <dc5ala> dogarrhea, i only have Java example, sorry :p but there i can define a rectangular area i want to grab and get a BufferedImage back
[06:48] <LittleZeasel> Eyce welcome to the club ... I have the same problem, ... though so far with CentOS and Fedora . what machine are you using (if it's the same as mien i won't even try Ubuntu then)
[06:48] <dc5ala> dogarrhea, then i have it in memory and can do whatever i want with it, read pixels, write to file or whatever
[06:52] <dogarrhea> it's a core i5 laptop
[06:52] <abiss27> hey guys
[06:52] <abiss27> hey anyone one?
[06:53] <Eyce> i also have another question , is there a way to load ubuntu server within ubuntu gui?
[06:53] <Eyce> hello
[06:53] <DARKGuy> Hey, is there any way to use wlan0 for some specific hosts (gmail, facebook, etc) and eth0 for local connections ONLY ?
[06:54] <dogarrhea> uh
[06:54] <dogarrhea> what happened
[06:54] <Eyce> i believe so
[06:54] <dogarrhea> did open source software fail again?
[06:54] <randomuser> Eyce, ubuntu GUI is ubuntu server with a few different packages on the back end, and no gui
[06:54] <ayecee> hi
[06:55] <randomuser> hit ctrl+alt+f1 and pretent theres nothing on f7/8
[06:55] <Eyce> oh ok
[06:55] <dogarrhea> there is no way around the set up of declaring display objects and getting x window context things just so i can read 1 pixel. Correct?
[06:55] <ayecee> DARKGuy: yes, but nothing really easy to set up
[06:55] <ayecee> DARKGuy: actually, that may be easy. providing the eth0 route didn't add a default gateway, that would work great.
[06:55] <DARKGuy> ayecee, well I need eth0 to use cntlm for connecting to the work LAN, but I need wlan0 to access outside world
[06:56] <ayecee> dogarrhea: sure there's a way. I just don't know it off the top of my head.
[06:57] <ayecee> DARKGuy: so provided worklan is all on one subnet, just ensure that worklan is configured to ignore defaultroute from dhcp server, assuming dhcp is used.
[06:57] <ayecee> if worklan covers multiple subnets, it's more difficult.
[06:57] <Jameo> Is there anyway to fix the suspend issue on ubuntu 10.10
[06:57] <Jameo> ?
[06:57] <ayecee> Jameo: yes
[06:57] <Jameo> how?
[06:58] <Eyce> how do i organize my partitions better? i have 4 partitions for a mistake i did and these partitions are within a sub level partition...
[06:58] <dogarrhea> hrm. open source software is costing me 2500$ and 2 weeks of developer time
[06:58] <dogarrhea> so much for free
[06:58] <DARKGuy> ayecee, do you know how to do that? or what tools should I use? this is ubuntu, and I'm allergic to iptables :P
[06:58] <dc5ala> dogarrhea, you are bashing against open source software, but the problem sits between keyboard and chair, i could write a software that does that in 20 minutes and you need 2 weeks?
[06:59] <ayecee> Jameo: determine the cause of the problem, and write a patch that resolves the problem.
[06:59] <ayecee> Jameo: honestly, I don't know which problem you're talking about.
[06:59] <dogarrhea> dc5ala using what?
[07:00] <ayecee> DARKGuy: I think that one can do it in networkmanager, but I don't have an ubuntu desktop handy to try it out on atm.
[07:00] <oracle> does anyone know a VOIP client for kubuntu i had Blink working on ubuntu but now im using latest kubuntu and i dont think i can install Blink
[07:00] <dogarrhea> put your money where your mouth is man.
[07:00] <LittleZeasel> Right... please cross your fingers, all, that I MAY be able to get my Laptop to work with Ubuntu 10.10 (inkl. Wireless and Graphic Card - booting from CD right now ) ...
[07:01] <DARKGuy> ayecee, NM doesn't seem to help me much at all, I haven't seen options to do what I want, unless it's hidden in the intrinsic (sp?) interface.
[07:01] <ayecee> oracle: what happens when you try?
[07:01] <Jameo> Ohk let me explain, When ever am away from keyboard like i have left ubuntu for updating itself , after sometime it changes to screensaver mode then to a blank screen . After which the ubuntu doesnt respond to any key i press or the movement of mouse and only way put is hard boot.
[07:01] <Jameo> ayecee, do you know any solutions?
[07:01] <ayecee> DARKGuy: sp is correct
[07:01] <DARKGuy> ayecee, yay :D
[07:01] <ayecee> Jameo: I know several solutions, but they may not apply to the problems you have.
[07:01] <oracle> ayecee: well on the website it only has downloadable versions for ubuntu but im using Kubuntu now so i need VOIP client for kubuntu
[07:01] <ayecee> Jameo: describe your problem.
[07:01] <Jameo> Ohk let me explain, When ever am away from keyboard like i have left ubuntu for updating itself , after sometime it changes to screensaver mode then to a blank screen . After which the ubuntu doesnt respond to any key i press or the movement of mouse and only way put is hard boot.
[07:01] <ayecee> oracle: so what happens when you try to install it?
[07:01] <Eyce> JAmeo: check the syslog
[07:02] <dogarrhea> the fact that you mentioned java for high performance graphical computing already tells me you're full of it dc5ala
[07:02] <oracle> there is no version for it
[07:02] <oracle> im looking for another VOIP client that runs on linux
[07:02] <Eyce> instabird?
[07:02] <ayecee> oracle: what happens when you try to install the regular ubuntu version, ignoring the fact that it's not a kubuntu version?
[07:02] <Jameo> oracle, skype ?
[07:02] <nit-wit> Jameo, check the screen saver and power setting for sleep
[07:02] <oracle> ayecee: it works on ubuntu
[07:02] <Jameo> nit-wit, done all settings on that
[07:03] <ayecee> oracle: I know that. what happens when you try to install it on kubuntu?
[07:03] <oracle> i just decided to reinstall kubuntu and im stuck in kde now
[07:03] <nit-wit> Jameo, figured you had but thought i would check.
[07:03] <dc5ala> dogarrhea, you call 0.333 seconds interval high performance reading 1 pixel?
[07:03] <oracle> it won't install on kubuntu no version for it on kubuntu
[07:03] <ayecee> Jameo: that would be difficult to troubleshoot. I don't have any immediate solutions.
[07:03] <dogarrhea> nope. but java won't do it.
[07:03] <oracle> ill try instabird then
[07:03] <ayecee> oracle: so install the ubuntu version.
[07:03] <Eyce> it works for irc :)
[07:04] <Jameo> i read in the forum topis its a problem with the kernal
[07:04] <dc5ala> dogarrhea, you should update your Java knowledge then, it seems from the 90s ;)
[07:04] <oracle> im in kubuntu
[07:04] <Jameo> is it true?
[07:04] <Jameo> 10.04 i didnt face any problem like this
[07:04] <oracle> kubuntu is based on kde i gather
[07:04] <oracle> hence the K
[07:04] <ayecee> Jameo: maybe? I hope the forum topic went into more detail.
[07:04] <ayecee> oracle: so install the ubuntu version. what happens?
[07:05] <dogarrhea> dc5ala, lets see your program
[07:05] <Eyce> whats a good reference site to customize my CLI
[07:05] <dogarrhea> your java program that reads pixels in ubuntu
[07:05] <Jameo> ayecee, yes it is but problem is that alot of solution working for different people .... not a single solution is guaranteed
[07:05] <dogarrhea> where's the code?
[07:05] <oracle> ayecee: My question is what are some other VOIP clients besides Blink for linux
[07:05] <dc5ala> dogarrhea, but you could do that in c or c++ too, for example there is a software called gtkrecordmydesktop, it grabs you screen and makes a movie
[07:05] <ayecee> Jameo: that could be because the problem depends on which hardware is in use.
[07:05] <Jameo> ayecee, is there a way I can retain all of programs and settings and revert back to 10.04
[07:05] <ayecee> oracle: ah, fair enough.
[07:05] <dogarrhea> dc5ala,  i've seen these record my desktop apps
[07:05] <dogarrhea> and they are choppy as fck
[07:06] <Eyce> instabird
[07:06] <dogarrhea> the mouse has cerebral palsy in those videos
[07:06] <ayecee> Jameo: not reliably, but you could copy a backup of your home directory to a fresh install of 10.04
[07:06] <dogarrhea> yea i've seen those videos on youtube.  why are you even mentioning them?
[07:06] <dc5ala> dogarrhea, it also depends on what you want to do with that pixel, read RGB value or start an event on a treshhold...
[07:06] <Jameo> and what about the programs ? apt cache
[07:06] <ayecee> Jameo: what about them?
[07:06] <oracle> instabird that is a VOIP client?
[07:07] <Jameo> how do i get all the programs on 10.04?
[07:07] <dogarrhea> it's just reading the rgb and you forgot alpha
[07:07] <Jameo> that i have already downloaded and installed
[07:07] <dogarrhea> even in HD, those record my mouse videos that teach you programming are spazzed
[07:08] <DropSQL> hi all
[07:08] <ayecee> Jameo: that would be difficult to do. I think you could get dpkg to tell you about its selections, but I don't know how to apply those to a previous version, or even if it would work.
[07:08] <DropSQL> help me plz
[07:08] <DropSQL> you know django repository?
[07:08] <ayecee> DropSQL: describe your problem briefly.
[07:08] <DropSQL> where django version 1.3
[07:09] <Jameo> ayecee, ohk thanks for the help . I will try the different solutions then trail and error before reverting back
[07:09] <ayecee> Jameo: good luck!
[07:09] <DropSQL> ayecee: in my repository django 1.2.3 :(
[07:10] <ayecee> DropSQL: I don't understand what you're saying.
[07:10] <LittleZeasel> Anyone trying the 11.04 Beta yet btw?
[07:10] <ayecee> LittleZeasel: lots of people in #ubuntu+1, where 11.04 is supported
[07:11] <DropSQL> $ aptitude show python-django
[07:11] <DropSQL> version: 1.2.3-1ubuntu0.2.10.10.2
[07:11] <frewsxcv> didn't redhat announce a new protocol for vnc? anyone know?
[07:11] <ruan> i need help with installshield, it stalls every time i try to install something with it in WINE
[07:11] <DropSQL> i need python 1.3
[07:13] <greyhatsalafi> LittleZeasel i have
[07:13] <dogarrhea> ruan
[07:13] <dogarrhea> use windows
[07:13] <LittleZeasel> Ahhh.. thanks ayecee ... if 10.10 is not working for me, I might try that ... I'm not yet quite willing to give up on Linux :P
[07:13] <dogarrhea> seriously.  forget about wine or VMS or any of that stuff. if you need windows api, run it natively
[07:13] <dogarrhea> dual boot if u want ubuntu.
[07:13] <ruan> dogarrhea: i cant
[07:13] <ruan> dogarrhea: it freezes up all the time
[07:14] <ruan> i've tried it.
[07:14] <rypervenche> A program I need to compile says I need the qt framework. Exactly which program(s) do I need for that? (I'm running Ubuntu 10.10)
[07:14] <dogarrhea> your windows "freezes up"
[07:14] <ayecee> DropSQL: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[07:14] <satya> how to remove wireless network driver in ubuntu lucid
[07:14] <greyhatsalafi> LittleZeasel perhaps linux mint might be better for you to try at the moment since 11.04 is in beta and still has issues
[07:14] <dogarrhea> what are you running? windows 98?
[07:14] <ruan> dogarrhea: yes. it can't handle my hardware
[07:14] <dogarrhea> windows 95?
[07:14] <DropSQL> ayecee: 10.10
[07:14] <ruan> dogarrhea: xp
[07:14] <tr3nton> !encryption
[07:14] <cakraningrum> allow
[07:14] <cakraningrum> hay
[07:14] <tr3nton> !home
[07:14] <dogarrhea> ruan, you're out of luck then
[07:14] <dogarrhea> just like I am.
[07:14] <Kimmen> Does anyone know of a software that will stream video over http? I have a large video library that I would like to watch while traveling. I am running mhive atm but it's limited to avi's, can't seem to customize catalog and can't get subtitles working.
[07:14] <ruan> no it works in appdb
[07:15] <dogarrhea> you can't feed a NFL player on celery sticks
[07:15] <ayecee> DropSQL: that's unfortunate. you'll have to either compile python1.3 from source, or find a ppa for it.
[07:15] <wujie__> What with the GNOME3 ubuntu11.04？
[07:15] <ayecee> dogarrhea: sure you can. you just need a lot of celery.
[07:15] <dogarrhea> you can't draw circular squares. you can't prove 1+1 = 3
[07:15] <ayecee> dogarrhea: all lies.
[07:15] <dogarrhea> ayecee, but then he wouldn't be a nfl player
[07:15] <dogarrhea> because he'd be dead.
[07:15] <ayecee> dogarrhea: not for long, no.
[07:15] <ayecee> but no one is an nfl player forever.
[07:15] <wujie__> What GNOME3 out tomorrow？
[07:16] <dogarrhea> ruan, what exactly are you trying to run in ubuntu that actually requires windows
[07:16] <ruan> other people have had luck with installshield. i need help for mine to work like theirs
[07:16] <ruan> dogarrhea: a game's installation
[07:16] <dogarrhea> ruan, you're out of luck
[07:16] <rypervenche> A program I need to compile says I need the qt framework. Exactly which program(s) do I need for that? (I'm running Ubuntu 10.10)
[07:16] <ruan> no im not
[07:16] <ayecee> ruan: which game?
[07:16] <ruan> dogarrhea: it has worked for them
[07:16] <dogarrhea> ruan, which game is it
[07:16] <ruan> not going to mention
[07:16] <ayecee> rypervenche: what does the program say?
[07:16] <abstrakt> rypervenche, probably qt-dev
[07:16] <ruan> it's no need because it's an installshield problem and i know it
[07:16] <tr3nton> !luks
[07:16] <wujie__> How to install ubuntu GONME3？
[07:16] <abstrakt> rypervenche, sudo apt-get install qt-dev
[07:17] <dogarrhea> you're out of luck ruan
[07:17] <abstrakt> rypervenche, or something similar, look in synaptic or aptitude for the exact package name
[07:17] <ruan> dogarrhea: IT HAS WORKED FOR PEOPLE ON APPDB
[07:17] <dogarrhea> install windows on a machine that can handle it
[07:17] <ruan> reaaaaaaad
[07:17] <ayecee> ruan: several games have subtly different versions of installshield. It would be helpful to know which game.
[07:17] <LittleZeasel> Ok .. serious problem ... I am in the install screen of Ubuntu 10.10 and it just asked me the "Who Are You" ...  name, password, etc. but the "forward" button stays grayed out. ON the button it tells me "Ready when you are" but it won't let me click "Forward" ... what shall I do?
[07:17] <rypervenche> It says "Install the Qt Framework on your computer, or at least the libraries"
[07:17] <Lcawte> hi, my Ubuntu won't boot proparly, it wasn't responding so I powered it off, now when I go to boot, I get this wierd command line thing, I  believe it said BUG: kernal paging error at x or something from what I could see
[07:17] <dogarrhea> ruan
[07:17] <ruan> rypervenche: libqt4
[07:17] <dogarrhea> you said your hardware was deficient
[07:17] <Lcawte> How do I fix it?
[07:17] <ruan> dogarrhea: for running windows itself
[07:17] <ruan> dogarrhea: yes
[07:17] <ayecee> rypervenche: I'm going to guess libqt4-dev
[07:18] <dogarrhea> running windows api isn't running windows?
[07:18] <ruan> dogarrhea: not the same thing.
[07:18] <ruan> dogarrhea: wine doesnt freeze
[07:18] <rypervenche> Thank you. I will try that :)
[07:18] <dogarrhea> well, if you aren't going to say the game, maybe you don't want to get helped.
[07:19] <Lcawte> hi, my Ubuntu won't boot proparly, it wasn't responding so I powered it off, now when I go to boot, I get this wierd command line thing, I  believe it said BUG: kernal paging error at x or something from what I could see
[07:19] <wujie__> hi。help me
[07:19] <wujie__> 如何在ubuntu中安装GONME3
[07:19] <ayecee> nonsense. he wants to be helped. he's playing hello kitty and he doesn't want to say.
[07:19] <wujie__> How to install ubuntu GONME3
[07:19] <nit-wit> Lcawte, wubi or regular install
[07:19] <Lcawte> nit-wit: regular
[07:20] <LittleZeasel> :( This is getting ridiculous ...
[07:20] <nit-wit> Lcawte, just maverick any others
[07:20] <abhilashm86> what is the best chmod permissions for phpmyadmin which i've installed in ubuntu server??
[07:20] <Lcawte> nit-wit: running  .28 / latest kernal on a maverick desktop install
[07:21] <dogarrhea> I qq every day when i cant play civilization 5 on my ubuntu
[07:21] <abhilashm86> currently i've all 777, but i don't want sql injections and bot attacks to database........
[07:21] <dogarrhea> and i complain because "someone else in the world out there probably is playing it on ubuntu"
[07:21] <ayecee> abhilashm86: why do you have all 777?
[07:21] <drawmeat> anyone want to help me solve a problem i'm having?
[07:21] <ayecee> dogarrhea: it hurts, yo
[07:21] <ayecee> drawmeat: only if you describe the problem.
[07:22] <Chr|s> drawmeat: how is someone suppose to help you if you don't state the problem your having?
[07:22] <ayecee> drawmeat: otherwise we'll just have to guess at it, and we're not very good at guessing.
[07:22] <Chr|s> lol
[07:22] <abhilashm86> ayecee: since i've a drupal CMS, it writes to database. What is best chmod permissions, is 750 safe??
[07:22] <wujie__> I heard a GONME3 installed FEDORA 14
[07:22] <ayecee> abhilashm86: safe for what?
[07:22] <Lcawte> nit-wit: any ideas? I upgraded from 10.04 a long time ago
[07:22] <hu> fedora
[07:22] <hu> redhat
[07:22] <hu> slaks
[07:22] <wujie__> yes
[07:22] <Chr|s> abhilashm86: that is something more suitable for #drupal I would say
[07:22] <Lcawte> wujie__: so did I... it was in the Linux Format last month :P
[07:22] <hu> SUDDEN BLOODSPORT
[07:22] <abhilashm86> ayecee: i want to access phpmyadmin to see the users data, so i have to install phpmyadmin on my webserver.
[07:22] <FloodBot4> hu: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:22] <hu> WHOA
[07:23] <drawmeat> :) ok here goes.  I'm trying to record the audio output of chrome on ubuntu.  I've tried all the popular audio programs and messing with my audio settings, but the recordings are always blank or from my mic...  and ideas on how i can do this?
[07:23] <wujie__> ok
[07:23] <nit-wit> Lcawte, not sure really I would see if a regular disc boots first probably inspite of the error.
[07:23] <dogarrhea> im starting to think this whole pixel reading optical flow neural network project on ubuntu is kind of like making crysis 2 with quadfire work on ubuntu
[07:23] <LittleZeasel> So I guess no one has an answer for why Ubuntu 10.10 won't let me install it?
[07:23] <randomuser> Lcawte, it might be helpful to be more specific about your error. Try a lived, and if it fails, test the memory
[07:23] <ruan> drawmeat: use the audio profile "analog stereo output" in sound prefs
[07:23] <wujie__> I coming china ,hello
[07:23] <abhilashm86> Chr|s: No its a genral phpmyadmin question!! i've been stumped by some permissions from a while.......so thought of asking best chaps here
[07:23] <Kimmen> drawmeat: I think you can use a plugin in alsa to output audio to file or something like that
[07:24] <Lcawte> nit-wit: it won't boot to anything other than this silly command line thing... or a live CD, which is what I'm using
[07:24] <ruan> hehe it works
[07:24] <Lcawte> randomuser: I'm using a live CD :P
[07:24] <drawmeat> ruan: i don't see that option in sound pref
[07:24] <randomuser> Lcawte, can you pull any logs?
[07:24] <Chr|s> abhilashm86: phpmyadmin has nothing to do with Ubuntu. #drupal would be better suited since it relates to drupal ;)
[07:24] <Lcawte> randomuser: If I can mount my disk..
[07:24] <ayecee> abhilashm86: this isn't a permissions issue. You will need phpmyadmin to be executable, however you will need to restrict access to phpmyadmin through your _web server_
[07:24] <drawmeat> Kimmen, is alsa a program?
[07:25] <Chr|s> abhilashm86: they would be better assist you with permissions with #drupal
[07:25] <wujie__> ubuntu11.04 test version of the Chinese is not very good, easy garbled,
[07:25] <Gate> Has anyone encountered a problem where apt-get install default-jre reaches the point where it is symlinking executables, but then it freezes the system?
[07:25] <Kimmen> drawmeat: it's the sound driver
[07:25] <ruan> drawmeat: under hardware
[07:25] <ayecee> Gate: nope, that's new to me
[07:25] <ruan> amazingly, the game runs better on ubuntu than it ran on windows
[07:25] <randomuser> chris|, referring to #drupal is assinine. its ok to keep quiet if you dont have an answer
[07:25] <ruan> it laaaaaaaaagggggged in windows, now it's smooth
[07:25] <abhilashm86> thank you guys, i'll head over #drupal and sort it out!! good day!
[07:26] <randomuser> Lcawte, do you need help with the mounting?
[07:26] <drawmeat> ruan, so is that under the system menu...  forgive my noobishness
[07:26] <ruan> drawmeat: system prefs
[07:26] <ruan> drawmeat: then sound
[07:26] <Chr|s> randomuser: practice what you preach. He has a question regarding permissions with drupal.
[07:26] <drawmeat> ruan, ok i'm there
[07:26] <wujie__> hi,What some people will say that Chinese?
[07:27] <ruan> drawmeat: go to the hardware tab, choose 'analog stereo output' then recording will work as output
[07:27] <drawmeat> ruan, oh i see
[07:27] <randomuser> Chr|s, phpmyadmin is not drupal
[07:27] <wujie__> 你好
[07:27] <Chr|s> randomuser: never said it was
[07:27] <ruan> drawmeat: switch it back to the other profile to get input again
[07:27] <ruan> drawmeat: from the mic
[07:27] <Lcawte> randomuser: I'm mounted but have to go out
[07:28] <drawmeat> ruan, okay, now that i have this solected, will my recorder hear chrome?
[07:28] <randomuser> Lcawte, that's what she said
[07:28] <ruan> drawmeat: it will record stereo output
[07:28] <wujie__> hi，
[07:28] <ruan> !cn
[07:29] <bive> Can someone help me recover from an interrupted upgrade?
[07:29] <wujie__> Next question, ubuntu11.04 What are MAC Desktop？
[07:29] <KB1JWQ> wujie__: 11.04 isn't out yet.
[07:30] <KB1JWQ> !11.04
[07:30] <LittleZeasel> Right... I give up ... Farewell folks... My feedback: Linux CentOS support: plain rude, Linux Fedora Support: totally ignoring ... Ubuntu Support .. at least SOMEwhat responsive... still useless... Back to windows for me it is ...
[07:30] <KB1JWQ> LittleZeasel: What's your question?
[07:30] <wujie__> 11.04 a beta version
[07:30] <Chr|s> LittleZeasel: have to have patience
[07:31] <Chr|s> LittleZeasel: ubuntu forums help quite a bit, so doesn't google
[07:31] <KB1JWQ> LittleZeasel: CentOS isn't aimed at your level of proficiency, Fedora folks are generally pretty busy, and Ubuntu at least tries to nudge you into the proper way to ask for help.  If you'd prefer to use Windows, by all means do so. :-)
[07:31] <drawmeat> ruan, i just tried recording something then switching back.  all i got was loud static.  am i doing something wrong?
[07:32] <LittleZeasel> KB1JWQ: Chr|s: ... my patience is about to run short after 3 days of trying to run Linux on my laptop. The issue is... Toshiba Satelllite a505-S6033 has a REaltek Wireless Cards that seems to have throughout the board difficulties with running under any kind of Linux
[07:32] <wujie__> Ubuntu11.04 beta out
[07:32] <ruan> drawmeat: what recorder are you using?
[07:32] <ruan> wujie__: yes it is out in beta, but it's not supported here, only in #ubuntu+1
[07:32] <LittleZeasel> Now I read Ubuntu has managed to get over that and supports the Wireless card - and thought I'd give it a try. I am installing it right now, but install freezes at "Who Are You" and won't let me click forward
[07:33] <wujie__> ok，谢谢
[07:33] <ruan> !cn
[07:33] <wujie__> yes
[07:33] <KB1JWQ> LittleZeasel: Supposedly passing acpi=noirq to the kernel boot string solves a lot of issues, but it's still hardly smooth sailing.
[07:33] <drawmeat> ruan,   i just used sound recorder but i also have audacity and outREC
[07:33] <drawmeat> ruan, should i try one of those
[07:33] <ruan> drawmeat: yes, try all of them
[07:33] <drawmeat> ruan, roger that
[07:33] <randomuser> LittleZeasel, a little background info: Centos is aimed mostly at servers, and fedora has a very GPL (opensource only) ethos, so proprietary drivers and things like flash are possible but not 'supported' .
[07:33] <ruan> sound recorder works here, but with a slight bug
[07:33] <KB1JWQ> LittleZeasel: http://www.linlap.com/wiki/toshiba+satellite+a505 goes into the issues a bit.
[07:34] <LittleZeasel> how do I do that KB1JWQ .. do I ctrl-c to abort whatever it's doing and then just type acpi=noirq into the command string that it offers when I click "expand" in the GUI _?
[07:34] <KB1JWQ> !noacpi
[07:34] <randomuser> and not that it matters, but #centos and #fedora are supported by their respective projects and #ubuntu i believe is community only
[07:34] <wujie__> I think the video card support for ubuntu isn't very good, especially alone show
[07:34] <KB1JWQ> randomuser: Not quite. :-)
[07:35] <randomuser> KB1JWQ, some have claimed such things about #ubuntu. I have my doubts
[07:35] <wujie__> After installation, no logo on video
[07:35] <KB1JWQ> randomuser: Canonical is actively involved here.
[07:36]  * randomuser points at KB1JWQ 
[07:36] <randomuser> you, sir?
[07:36] <rww> Canonical is not Ubuntu.
[07:36] <KB1JWQ> randomuser: No, I'm freenode staff.  And we're extremely grateful to Canonical for their support.
[07:36] <rww> And #ubuntu is the official IRC support channel for Ubuntu :)
[07:37] <LittleZeasel> randomuser ... as it was I finally foudn out that CentOS supports a kernel too old for the realtek driver and Fedora seems to have had the same issue (no wonder, both being redhat based afaik) ... so I thought I'd give Ubuntu a try ... so I guess I try typing that command? what was it? acpi=noirq into the command line ....
[07:37] <littlebearz> Awesome
[07:37] <bive> rww: Which makes it ironic that there's a lot of hacker-chat, but little support here...
[07:37] <fisch246> ok i'm just curious... not actually going to do this... but what would happen if i ran update manager while running a live disc?
[07:37] <LittleZeasel> KB1JWQ: Nope.. won't let me access the command line at all ...
[07:38] <dj> lnjkl
[07:38] <randomuser> LittleZeasel, kernel parameters are passed before the OS loads; i usually would mash the 'a' key as the system boots then add it to that prompt
[07:38] <rww> fisch246: the live environment would get updated, but would be lost on reboot like anything else in a live environment
[07:38] <rww> fisch246: if you upgrade enough, it also tends to cause out-of-memory problems
[07:38] <rww> s/upgrade/update/
[07:38] <KB1JWQ> randomuser: Yeah, I've no clue how to pass kernel boot parameters to Ubuntu's boot process; I think they hide grub these days?
[07:38] <PresuntoRJ> bive: just ask a question ;)
[07:38] <fisch246> rww: ah ok... what would happen if i upgraded to 10.10? XD
[07:39] <randomuser> KB1JWQ, and I am extremely grateful to freenode...
[07:39] <fisch246> 10.04 live disc btw
[07:39] <friendheart> hi guys i think my harddrive has errors, whenver i install something, or use it for a long time the computer freezes or i get read/write errors
[07:39] <KB1JWQ> bive: Helps if you articulate a precise question.
[07:39] <randomuser> i think they just set the timeout to 0
[07:39] <friendheart> ive booted from the usb drive live cd, but when i go fsck /dev/sda1   it just says 'check finished, clean' straight away
[07:39] <Guest5365> ,ml;
[07:39] <rww> fisch246: that sounds like an interesting idea. I predict hilarity.
[07:39] <LittleZeasel> I'll try again tomorrow I think ... it's 3 am here and I get tired and grumpy and probably more rude than necessary (been sitting on that computer and running through linux applications with costumising kernels and whatsnots for over 20 hours now) ... So... I'm sorry for that...
[07:39] <friendheart> how do i force it to do a deep  and long scan and fix things?
[07:39] <KB1JWQ> randomuser: I confess, my exposure to Ubuntu is mostly limited to OpenVZ containers, although I have a VMware instance for rare use on my Mac.
[07:39] <rww> Guest5365: Try English, it tends to work better :)
[07:40] <KB1JWQ> friendheart: Not sure offhand, but man fsck will likely shed some light. :-)
[07:40] <fisch246> rww: so would it be 10.10 until i rebooted/shutdown?
[07:40] <friendheart> KB1JWQ: i tried that, i cant  seem to find the right option
[07:40] <friendheart> KB1JWQ: im also a noob
[07:40] <fisch246> rww: o actually... no... cause you have to reboot into it >.<
[07:41] <PresuntoRJ> friendheart: you may wanna check the Admin/Disk Manager
[07:41] <randomuser> KB1JWQ, i'm about the same. i 'grew out' of ubuntu once i got over the learning curve; but i like to hang around here from time to time because I know what that learning curve is like
[07:41] <randomuser> i think that was around 8.10
[07:41] <KB1JWQ> randomuser: I support a large number of Ubuntu instances in production, I just have little incentive to pick up the desktop-isms. :-)
[07:42] <KB1JWQ> We're a development driven shop, so Ubuntu's willingness to use more recent packages is somewhat of a boon to those types.  Makes the syseng a bit harder, but...
[07:42] <LittleZeasel> Good night everyone...
[07:42] <PresuntoRJ> friendheart: it is a GUI (on the desktop) check for HDD info, including errors (SMART, etc.) . The problem is that you may not be able to start a fsck while using (mounted) the disk
[07:42] <LittleZeasel> and thanks for the latest answers ...
[07:42] <drawmeat> ruan, the success was minimal.  It never worked by switching the profile..  only when i put input to line in on the regular output profile did i get anything, but it was a very very distant sound on the right speaker only.  like something heard from far far away.  any other ideas?
[07:43] <friendheart> PresuntoRJ: i booted from usb drive so the harddrive isn't mounted
[07:43] <PresuntoRJ> friendheart:  perfect
[07:43] <randomuser> KB1JWQ, interesting! thats also one of my motivations for idling here; i'd like to be able to offer support and ubuntu seems to have the easiest transition from windows.  Are you just supporting in-house, or are you a 3rd party sysadmin of some sort?
[07:43] <ruan> drawmeat: im not sure then. you can try the other profiles to test
[07:44] <PresuntoRJ> friendheart: I am sorry cause I using a local (pt-BR) version, so I may not recall the correct program name...
[07:44] <KB1JWQ> randomuser: I'm a consultant to a web based company.  Their infrastructure is... interesting, and I've been contracted to help shape it into something maintainable.
[07:44] <drawmeat> ruan, i did..  isn't there a was to just make the audio output to a file
[07:44] <drawmeat> ruan,  the audio from my sound driver?
[07:44] <fisch246> another thing i'm curious about... is it possible to "try" Ubuntu Server? as in go directly to a shell or something to get used to commands and such? don't see much use for something like that... but it's a good idea no?
[07:44] <ruan> drawmeat: which audio are you recording?
[07:45] <fisch246> sad thing is... i've installed the server so many times >.< never bothered to check if there was a "try" option
[07:45] <randomuser> fisch246, there's always command line available, and the non-server install can do everyting ubuntu server can
[07:45] <KB1JWQ> fisch246: Spin it up in a VM; it takes very little time.
[07:45] <PresuntoRJ> friendheart: it sits on the Admin menu, it will list the available drives... and you may get a few diagnostics from there, including SMART (HDD controller health check) and fsck (filesystem health check)
[07:46] <KB1JWQ> Or install Debian and break the init scripts; it's a lot like Ubuntu that way. *runs*
[07:46] <drawmeat> ruan, a phone call being made on gmail.  i'm trying to record the contents of my answering machine and make it a digital file.  so i'm calling my answering machine through gmail/google voice and dialing my secret code.  (the recording is the last time my mother made a phone call before passing)
[07:46] <ruan> oh k
[07:46] <fisch246> KB1JWQ: well i've used server many times... just wondering if you could check it out in a live disc... so i know how to  use it quite well... just curious...
[07:46] <maimster> How everyone...
[07:46] <KB1JWQ> fisch246: Not really a lot of call for such a thing.
[07:47] <fisch246> KB1JWQ: yea i figured
[07:48] <randomuser> KB1JWQ, are you completely independent then?
[07:48] <abiss27> hey guys what's the best size partition of root? I set mines at 15 Gb's
[07:49] <KB1JWQ> randomuser: See PM.
[07:49] <randomuser> fair enough
[07:49] <ampont> id
[07:49] <drawmeat> ruan, if this is beyond your scope, i understand.  google also has few answers and i'll seek an alternative solution
[07:50] <porjo> anyone know how I can associate an m3u file with VLC player when launching it from the Gnome panel? The file association works when launching m3u files from Nautilus - just not from the panel ???
[07:51] <positivel> anyone have trouble using intel gma3150 after installing 11.04?
[07:52] <positivel> ever since I updated my resolution has been messed up
[07:52] <ayecee> positivel: 11.04 is supported in channel #ubuntu+1
[07:52] <ampont> #aceh @dalnet
[07:52] <positivel> ah... thanks.
[07:53] <fairuz> morning good people
[07:53] <danielcg25> Good evening
[07:54] <danielcg25> Its almost 2 AM by me
[07:54] <ruan> help
[07:54] <ruan> after a ffmpeg update, i can't play any audio!
[07:54] <amskinner> good almost-morning-but-not-quite-in-PST
[07:54] <ruan> only youtube plays audio
[07:54] <danielcg25> ruan: No more WUUB WUUBU BuUUUUUUBBBBB?
[07:55] <ruan> noooes :(
[07:55] <ruan> Please update alsa-lib to version 1.0.23-2-g8d80d5f or higher to try to fix this issue.
[07:55] <randomuser> positivel, i would try moving your xorg.conf to xorg.conf.bk (so the system has to generate a new one) then rebooting
[07:55] <ruan> going to kill gstreamer for this
[07:55] <jason_562> hahahha
[07:55] <jason_562> hi pen
[07:56] <amskinner> positivel: you could also just restart Xorg instead of doing a full reboot
[07:56] <jason_562> hey where's everybody?
[07:56] <amskinner> <--- here
[07:56] <ruan> Device 'default' is busy
[07:57]  * fisch246 sees this becoming like #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:57] <ruan> Device 'default' is busy
[07:57] <ruan> oops
[07:57] <ruan> Could not open audio device for playback. Device is being used by another application.
[07:58] <drawmeat> Hi all!  I have this random script i found online that i want to use, but it says i need to make it executable.  anybody wanna help out a total n00b?
[07:58] <positivel> my xorg.conf is fine, I was using it before the update...
[07:58] <positivel> i get (EE) failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so
[07:58] <fisch246> drawmeat: calling yourself a "n00b" probably means you shouldn't be using the script in the first place...
[07:58] <ruan> i think a reboot will fix this
[07:58] <syrinx_> drawmeat: sudo chmod +x "file"
[07:58] <fisch246> ruan: reboots tend to fix most issues
[07:59] <drawmeat> fisch246, i have to, it's the only way ubuntu has to solve my problem of recording audio output that i've found so far
[07:59] <randomuser> positivel, you should reread the documents you used to set up your video driver, it needs to be redone after kernel updates IIRC
[07:59] <fisch246> drawmeat: ah well that sounds much safer than you were making it :P
[07:59] <fisch246> it sound*
[08:00] <drawmeat> fisch246, lol yeah, i found it on ubuntu forums @ http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1330728 would you mind taking a look and telling me how to run it
[08:00] <TheLifelessOne> How can I give an FTP user full read/write/etc access to a a sub-folder of /var/www?
[08:00] <drawmeat> fisch246, if your not busy
[08:00] <positivel> which documents would those be?  For 10.10, it just worked.  I've read over the x.org documentation many times today.
[08:01] <ruan> brb.
[08:01] <fisch246> actually no... i'm not busy... i'm repartitioning my hard drive... sadly i never thought of giving myself something to do for the next few hours >.<
[08:01] <positivel> which stuff do you think needs to be rebuilt?
[08:01] <drawmeat> fisch246, it would be an awesome gesture of your leetness
[08:01] <soreau> randomuser: Only for proprietary drivers
[08:02] <fisch246> drawmeat: haha i'm not leet... i've only been apart of linux for about a year :/ however i've been programming and messing with comps since i was a baby :3
[08:02] <drawmeat> fisch246, so you'll take a look :)
[08:03] <randomuser> soreau, not making assumptions about positivel 's situation either way
[08:03] <fisch246> drawmeat: well looks like they give you all the commands
[08:03] <kawohi> Hey guys! first time Ubuntu user here...
[08:03] <fisch246> drawmeat: i'll break it down for you
[08:03] <drawmeat> fisch246, ty
[08:03] <ruan> works! i have my wubwubwub back!
[08:03] <hermanlf> is there any command line tool to find/set fastest repo?
[08:03] <randomuser> positivel, you might ask #ubuntu+1 if there is driver support for your card yet. you need drivers set up for each kernel
[08:04] <soreau> randomuser: just an FYI.
[08:04] <fisch246> drawmeat: first line is to download the file... the second line is setting the permission of the file, and the third line is executing it :)
[08:04] <kawohi> So i updated my packages, on 10.10, I downloaded Chrome. what else should I do before I start using ?
[08:04] <drawmeat> fisch246, so do i type all that in terminal...  maybe without the $
[08:04] <fisch246> drawmeat: o sorry.. not permission >.< i'm tired sorry... making it an executable to be precise
[08:05] <positivel> randomuser: thanks, I'm asking in there but it doesn't look like anyone is in there.
[08:05] <drawmeat> fisch246, so do i type all that in terminal...  maybe without the $
[08:05] <Cane> TheLifelessOne it'd depend on the ftpd you're running, but generally you edit the .conf to add a user and a virtual directory
[08:05] <fisch246> um... i never include the '$' when pasting into the terminal... but i don't see what it could hurt
[08:07] <randomuser> positivel, see if you can just boot to an earlier kernel until you get it sorted out. I find that if you do that, the problem often goes away after later updates
[08:08] <kawohi> After updating the packages to 10.10, what else should I do? First time user and I really want to do everything right
[08:08] <bazhang> kawohi, fresh install?
[08:08] <soreau> randomuser: I am helping him in ubuntu+1 (we dont support pre releases here)
[08:08] <amskinner> kawohi: sounds like youre p much done
[08:08]  * randomuser is a rule breaker
[08:09] <kawohi> yup fresh install
[08:09] <soreau> randomuser: we dont support rule breakers either
[08:09] <amskinner> i do
[08:09]  * amskinner obama-fist
[08:09] <bazhang> kawohi, install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package for one
[08:09] <bazhang> amskinner, wrong channel
[08:09] <kawohi> What is that for?
[08:10] <bazhang> kawohi, all the codecs etc, also enable partner repo to install the java plugins
[08:10] <kawohi> Does that come with the packages and updates I just did? 300 filesthat got updated and downloaded hahaha
[08:10] <bazhang> !partner | kawohi
[08:10] <bazhang> !java | kawohi
[08:10] <bazhang> kawohi, no this is the restricted packages that contain the various codecs you'll need
[08:11] <kawohi> Alright thanks buddy
[08:11] <TheLifelessOne> Sooo yeah. Totally forgot I had this opened.
[08:11] <TheLifelessOne> :D
[08:12] <Cane> Just a small update, for anyone else who has a fast connection but is frustrated by slow apt-get. www.mattparnell.com/linux/apt-fast has a nice wrapper script for axel (multi thread/part downloader) and apt-get. I pretty much maxed my 50Mbit line using it
[08:13] <kawohi> How about any useful programs?
[08:14] <TheLifelessOne> Using vsftpd, I have created a new user with the home directory inside /var/www, but I am unable to modify files at all. How can I give this new user permission to upload, download chmod, etc. files?
[08:15] <Jon--> Anyone here who uses testdrive : Can I use my own .ISO file instead of downloading via HTTP? I have the daily ubuntu build already downloaded in ISO form.

[08:21] <pravish> using a script
[08:21] <pravish> do u know to a write script
[08:21] <Jon--> Anyone here who uses testdrive : Can I use my own .ISO file instead of downloading via HTTP? I have the daily ubuntu build already downloaded in ISO form.
[08:21] <randomuser> pravish, do you need help with a bash script, or just starting it at boot?
[08:22] <pravish> actually i tried application launcher
[08:22] <pravish> but it not working
[08:22] <aftertaf> pravish: use the init.d services to start it
[08:22] <pravish> so would try bash script
[08:22] <aftertaf> unless you want X to start too...
[08:22] <randomuser> pravish, what are you trying to launch, and how are you lanching it? cut and paste is of for oneliners
[08:23] <pravish> its an crclient
[08:23] <Cane> sudo vi /etc/group
[08:23] <Cane> pravish system startup or user login start up?
[08:23] <Cane> .bash_rc or /init.d not sure what section on init tho
[08:23] <pravish> user login startup
[08:23] <pravish> i use it to login my internet user
[08:24] <Cane> pravish edit ~/.xinitrc
[08:24] <jason_562> hahahaa

[08:24] <pravish> is it usefull
[08:24] <pravish> ?
[08:25] <pravish> i dont want to login again n again at evry startup
[08:25] <randomuser> you should be able to set up a configuration file and tell your crclient to use all the options there. then add that line, something similar bot not exactly like, 'crclient --config pravish.config' to the startup thing listed above
[08:26] <pravish> okay
[08:26] <pravish> thanks

[08:45] <n2i> Hi all!
[08:46] <n2i> I'am using 9.10, now I wanna upgrade to 10.04. Can somebody tell me how to do it?
[08:46] <ikonia> !upgrade | n2i
[08:46] <n2i> Update Manager only allow upgrade to 10.10 only
[08:46] <sykes> how do I load a module with option?
[08:47] <ikonia> n2i: you need to change the upgrade to use LTS releases to, it's in the URL ubottu just gave you
[08:47] <ikonia> sykes: --options
[08:47] <n2i> ikonia: ok, thank, I'm checking it now
[08:48] <sykes> I want to load nouveau with options, so do I need to disable it loading on boot?
[08:48] <Jordan_U> n2i: If update-manager is offering to upgrade to 10.10 then you already do have 10.04, that or something has gone wrong.
[08:49] <ikonia> sykes: you can tell it to load with options at boot
[08:49] <sykes> how?
[08:49] <ikonia> Jordan_U: 9.10 is not LTS, so the next non-lts version is 10.10
[08:49] <sykes> just add i in the modules?
[08:49] <n2i> ikonia: Where May I change the URLs?
[08:49] <sykes> */etc/modules?
[08:49] <ikonia> sykes: just add the options you want in the modules config file
[08:50] <ikonia> sykes: that should work, yes
[08:50] <sykes> alright thanx
[08:50] <ikonia> n2i: where does it say to do it in the document ?
[08:50] <Jordan_U> ikonia: But update-manager only skips releases LTS to LTS, so 9.10 should only ever offer to upgrade directly to 10.04.
[08:50] <ikonia> Jordan_U: ah, I've not got it in front of me, so the options aren't LTS/non-lts/both, just LTS and both
[08:51] <n2i> ikonia: I have changed release-upgrades
[08:52] <ikonia> n2i: ok ?
[08:52] <n2i> :( It seems not fine
[08:52] <ikonia> n2i: exactly what file did you change
[08:53] <Jon--> What is the default username:password for a live CD of Ubunutu?
[08:53] <Jordan_U> Jon--: Ubuntu and blank
[08:53] <Zero_Dogg> Hi, when a version is listed as EOL in June, that means that it's EOL from 1. June, right?
[08:53] <amskinner> Jon--: i think i.... what Jordan_U said
[08:53] <Jordan_U> Jon--: Sorry, "ubuntu" (lowercase).
[08:53] <Jon--> Jordan_U, I was trying ubuntu:ubuntu thanks
[08:53] <ikonia> Jon--: you shouldn't get asked though
[08:53] <n2i> ikonia: /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
[08:53] <Jon--> ikonia, I'm switching window managers so I logged out
[08:53] <ikonia> n2i: can you show me where in the guide it says to update that file ?
[08:54] <ikonia> n2i: ok, I've found it
[08:54] <n2i> I have changed to: prompt=lts
[08:54] <Jon--> Weird.
[08:55] <ikonia> n2i: where does it say change it to LTS
[08:55] <ikonia> n2i: its says set it to "normal"
[08:55] <Jon--> I have the latest daily build of 11.04 I am trying to test the Unity interface, however, it doesn't seem to be using Unity?
[08:55] <ikonia> n2i: please pastebin the output of "lsb_release -a"
[08:55] <Jon--> I have it running in QEMU right now
[08:55] <Jordan_U> n2i: What is the output of "lsb_release -r"?
[08:55] <n2i> ikonia: :-/ but 10.04 is LTS version
[08:55] <ikonia> Jon--: #ubuntu+1 channel for natty chat
[08:55] <n2i> wait me a momment, please!
[08:56] <n2i> ikonia: 10.04
[08:56] <ikonia> n2i: ok - so you're already at 10.04 as Jordan_U suggested earlier
[08:57] <n2i> ikonia: how to?
[08:57] <ikonia> n2i: you are already at 10.04
[08:57] <ikonia> n2i: you are using 10.04 now

[09:21] <shomon> thanks _vaibhav_  well I'll still need spanish probably, but I wonder if it's the same when moving from any language? That maybe you have to wait for apps to progressively pick things up, or if there are some things set only during installation?

[09:22] <ikonia> !info gecko
[09:22] <ikonia> !find gecko

[09:27] <ikonia> LeaoX: unless you tell me the errors, I can't help
[09:27] <ikonia> LeaoX: however I'm wondering if gecko can't launch now due to lack of chineese support, honestly, I don't know
[09:27] <aftertaf> buhl: join ubuntu+1 and ask away . . .
[09:28] <LeaoX> ikonia:i am sorry i waste your time and thanks for your support.

[09:55] <easilydistr> thank you
[09:55] <user_> can somebody help me with a problem please
[09:55] <ikonia> user_: you need to ask a question
[09:55] <user_> i cannot find in synaptic package manager a deb package installed
[09:55] <andruha> how to can i see all open ports?
[09:55] <hu> holdon
[09:56] <ikonia> user_: what package do you want to install
[09:56] <user_> i can remove it with apt-get remove package but
[09:56] <user_> in synaptic i cannot find it
[09:56] <user_> ?
[09:56] <ikonia> user_: what is the package
[09:56] <user_> custom made
[09:56] <ikonia> andruha: netstat -a | grep LIST shows all ports listening
[09:56] <Kartagis> I want to add multiple domains to a VPS. is it a matter of editing aliases file??
[09:56] <ikonia> user_: then it won't be installed with synaptic as that searches the repos
[09:56] <user_> i need to know if this is a bug or not in the package
[09:56] <ikonia> Kartagis: domains to what application
[09:56] <Kartagis> sorry for the two ?s
[09:56] <ikonia> user_: it's not a bug in the package
[09:57] <user_> then?
[09:57] <ikonia> user_: how did you install it
[09:57] <Kartagis> ikonia: postfix and dovecot
[09:57] <user_> with package installer
[09:57] <FloodBot3> !netsplit
[09:57] <user_> double click on the deb package
[09:57] <andruha> ikonia, thank you :)
[09:57] <ikonia> Kartagis: ok, then it depends how they are setup
[09:57] <ikonia> user_: which package installer
[09:57] <fisch246> Dang... I was hoping someone would know... Well I guess i'll find out in an hour or so...
[09:57] <Bipul`> what is build-essential and kernel headers ?
[09:57] <ikonia> Bipul`: development tools and libraries
[09:58] <user_> gdebi 0.6.0ubuntu1
[09:58] <Bipul`> ikonia,  what kind of development tools? can you please specified it
[09:58] <ikonia> Bipul`: no, they are generic, and the headers are kernel header files for generic development use
[09:58] <Bipul`> ok
[09:58] <ikonia> user_: ok, so synaptic only knows about packages it installed, you didn't use synaptic, so it won't know
[09:59] <fisch246> i assume since GKSU won't start gparted will just halt after the current operation?
[09:59] <ikonia> fisch246: how can it be doing an operation if it won't start
[10:00] <user_> ?
[10:02] <Preseed> hi ! Is there a way to uncompress initrd.lz (to add a file) ?
[10:02] <ikonia> Preseed: shouldn't be in .lz format
[10:03] <Preseed> ??
[10:04] <rwat> what's the current situation with natty and wayland? if I dist-upgrade to natty now will it try to remove X11 and install wayland?
[10:04] <user_> then why some other packages installed with sa same method are seen in synaptic? also custom made
[10:04] <ikonia> user_: oh really, synaptic can see some of them ?
[10:04] <Preseed> ikonia: but it is in my .iso
[10:04] <user_> yes
[10:04] <ikonia> user_: if they where installed through a package manager, synaptic should see them if they where pushed in with dpkg for example synaptic won't
[10:04] <ikonia> Preseed: so ?
[10:05] <Preseed> but I've taken a Kubuntu .iso and I want to change initrd ikonia
[10:05] <Preseed> and it is in initrd.lz
[10:05] <ikonia> Preseed: it shouldn't be in lz format
[10:06] <Preseed> :|
[10:06] <Preseed> But it is
[10:07] <Cane> Preseed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization check this out
[10:07] <Cane> you need to loopback the lz file
[10:07] <Cane> lzma -dc -S .lz ../initrd.lz | cpio -imvd --no-absolute-filenames
[10:13] <ruan_> hey, how do i copy a dir in ssh?
[10:13] <ikonia> ruan_: do you mean copy a dir over ssh, or just copy a dir while ssh'd in
[10:13] <ruan_> copy a dir here
[10:13] <ruan_> whie sshd
[10:13] <ikonia> ruan_: cp -r
[10:13] <ikonia> or if you mean copy if over ssh, scp -r
[10:13] <ruan_> ty
[10:14] <hu> too you
[10:14] <hu> the old man
[10:14] <ikonia> what ?
[10:14] <ikonia> hu: what are you talking about
[10:15] <bea> question: just installed meld (a graphical diff tool) and when i compare 2 files, scrolling one file does not scroll the other file, thereby breaking all the colored comparison links and making it unusable. is this a bug? ubuntu 10.04 LTS btw
[10:16] <Starminn> Any way to make Banshee display lyrics to the current song?
[10:16] <jlottmann> hi @ all
[10:16] <jlottmann> habe eine Frage zu Skype, kann mir jemand helfen?
[10:16] <llutz> !de
[10:17] <hu> de
[10:17] <jlottmann> i have a problem with skype, can anybody help me?
[10:17] <Noorman> join #arduino
[10:17] <Noorman> oops
[10:18] <ikonia> jlottmann: skype is a closed product, if it's config, I'm sure someone can help you, if it's a problem with the application, doubtful
[10:19] <van7hu> ubuntu and glibC, is there any relationship?
[10:19] <ikonia> van7hu: yes
[10:19] <ikonia> van7hu: libc is the core c library in all linux distribtuions
[10:19] <hu> groveling sucks just to get kb'd
[10:20] <Preseed> Cane: do you have the cmd to rebuild initrd.lz?
[10:20] <jlottmann> @ikona: i am not sure if its a config problem.... the problem is, when i test the webcam my screen is blank.... it means that other people can see me but i cant see anybody
[10:20] <van7hu> ikonia: read libc and not POSIX, is that good?
[10:21] <ikonia> van7hu: they are totally seperate things, what's the actual problem/question you have
[10:21] <ruan_> i copied a file via scp -r .dir/ 127.0.0.1, where did the file get copied to?
[10:21] <llutz> ruan_: to a file/dir called 127.0.0.1
[10:21] <ruan_> oh
[10:21] <llutz> ruan_: scp -r dir host:/path
[10:21] <ikonia> ruan_: you need to specify a path, eg: scp -r .dir user@hostname:/path
[10:22] <ruan_> how can i copy it to this machine
[10:22] <ruan_> the client
[10:22] <van7hu> ikonia: I want to learn develop networked application, so there may be conflict old/new standard
[10:22] <ikonia> ruan_: command I just gave you
[10:22] <ruan_> i dont know the host tho
[10:22] <llutz> ruan_: scp -r dir ip:/path
[10:22] <ikonia> van7hu: posix is nothing to do with glibc
[10:22] <ikonia> ruan_: then you can't do it
[10:22] <ikonia> ruan_: you need to know the name/ip of the host you want to put it to
[10:22] <ruan_> gah, need to get the ip
[10:22] <ikonia> ruan_: how else do you expect to move something across the network if you're not using a hostname or ip address
[10:23] <ruan_> ikonia: the client and server are connected
[10:23] <fisch246> finally... something that works...
[10:23] <ikonia> ruan_: how are they connected
[10:23] <fisch246> ok back and with same question...
[10:23] <ruan_> ikonia: via local ips
[10:23] <llutz> ruan_: if you ssh'd into that machine you have to have its hostname/ip. so use from local-machine: scp -r user@remotehost:/path/to/copy localpath/
[10:23] <ikonia> ruan_: ok - so you know the IP, so you can scp -r user@ip:/directory
[10:23] <fisch246> need me to restate it?
[10:24] <ruan_> what's a valid localpath for windows?
[10:24] <Starminn> Anyone know of any ways to get Banshee to show lyrics for current song?
[10:24] <erUSUL> Starminn: crtl + l
[10:24] <ikonia> ruan_: what has windows got to do with it ?
[10:24] <erUSUL> Starminn: once you enabled the lyrics plugin
[10:24] <ruan_> windows is the client
[10:24] <llutz> ruan_: local is win? use winscp
[10:24] <ikonia> ruan_: ok - so you won't be able to scp to windows
[10:25] <ikonia> ruan_: you'll need to be running an ssh server on windows
[10:25] <ruan_> winscp isnt in openssh for windows is it
[10:25] <Kartagis> !info man
[10:25] <van7hu> ikonia: such as BSD socket vs glibc socket?
[10:25] <Kartagis> !find man
[10:25] <llutz> ruan_: nope
[10:25] <ruan_> i need to run the serv on inux
[10:25] <ikonia> ruan_: you can however scp from the linux machine to the windows machine
[10:25] <ikonia> van7hu: nothing to do with it
[10:25] <ikonia> van7hu: the guys in #gnu and ##c can help more
[10:25] <ruan_> gahh. i hope windows can make a dir with a . before it
[10:25] <ikonia> ruan_: ok, so you need to scp from the windows machine, pulling the files from the linux machine
[10:26] <llutz> ruan_: if you want to copy stuff from server to win, use winscp
[10:26] <bburhans> moinica: please tell your bot/script/whatever to not spam PMs
[10:26] <ikonia> ruan_: eg: scp user@linuxmachine:/home/ruan/.dir c:\
[10:26] <bburhans> ikonia: mmm, see #freenode by the way. I can pastebin if necessary.
[10:26] <van7hu> ikonia: thanks
[10:26] <fisch246> so does anyone know what GKSU crashing will do to gparted? my IRC client crashed last time, so if anyone said anything, i didn't see it...
[10:26] <ruan_> gonna test cmd with mkdir
[10:26] <ikonia> bburhans: what's up ?
[10:27] <ikonia> fisch246: what's the problem
[10:27] <ruan_> finally
[10:27] <Derpie> Anyone know anything about getting VPN to work in ubuntu?
[10:27] <ikonia> Derpie: yes
[10:27] <ruan_> windows can't even make a dir with a . before it in the gui
[10:27] <bburhans> ikonia: moinica shares a user@host with a spambot that's advertising another network, by nick ANADOLU. Just thought you should be aware; this is the only channel moinica shares with me.
[10:27] <Derpie> im trying to get swissvpn to work
[10:27] <Derpie> but it wont connect
[10:28] <ikonia> bburhans: jump into #ubuntu-ops for a moment if you wouldn't mind please ?
[10:28] <bburhans> sure.
[10:28] <fisch246> ikonia:  gksu crashed and won't start up... i'm assuming because gparted is running... i'm wondering if it needs gksu to do operations...
[10:28] <Starminn> erUSL: Alright, well where's the lryics plugin? Only one I could find was quite outdated and rendered Banshee useless until I deleted it from my system.
[10:28] <ikonia> fisch246: gksu crashed ? once you launch an application it's not running,
[10:28] <ljsoftnet> ikonia whats in #ubuntu-ops?
[10:28] <fisch246> well i'm locked out of everything
[10:29] <ikonia> ljsoftnet: a channel for sorting out issues with irc
[10:29] <Derpie> Ikonia: how do i get swiss vpn to connect?
[10:29] <fisch246> i can't start up firefox, use internet, or do just about anything
[10:29] <ljsoftnet> ikonia ok
[10:29] <ikonia> Derpie: no idea, never heard of swiss vpn
[10:29] <ikonia> fisch246: how are you starting firefox ?
[10:29] <fisch246> by clicking on it
[10:29] <fisch246> on the icon
[10:29] <ljsoftnet> Derpie do you have a network applet running?
[10:30] <friendheart> hey guys, occasionally my computer freezes and i get input/output error and i had errors about 'can't read' and DMA errors. What's going on and how do i fix it?
[10:31] <fisch246> ikonia: alright i started it from terminal with this error... "device or resource busy"
[10:31] <ikonia> fisch246: ok, why do you think that's a problem with gksu
[10:31] <Chr|s> friendheart: sounds like bad hard drive
[10:31] <friendheart> Chr|s: can i fix it?
[10:32] <friendheart> Chr|s: if so, how?
[10:32] <fisch246> ikonia: well soon as i saw that error i realized it wasn't gksu
[10:32] <Chr|s> friendheart: I don't think their is a fix afaik
[10:33] <Derpie> ljsoftnet: yeah i think so. the two arrows in the taskbar?
[10:33] <Chr|s> friendheart: could always format the drive and do a clean install
[10:33] <friendheart> Chr|s: what about fsck?
[10:33] <fairuz> A weird question, can I play a music using command line? ( I dont want hear the music, just want to measure something) :D
[10:33] <friendheart> Chr|s: this *is* a clean install
[10:33] <ljsoftnet> Derpie yes, just left click on it
[10:34] <Chr|s> friendheart: could try to use fsck
[10:34] <ikonia> Chr|s: how would a clean install fix i/o errors ?
[10:34] <van7hu> ikonia: is glibc default in ubuntu?
[10:34] <ikonia> van7hu: yes
[10:34] <Chr|s> ikonia: told him to reformat the drive than do a clean install
[10:34] <ikonia> Chr|s: why ?
[10:34] <ikonia> fisch246: no idea what resources are busy, is your machine still doing the hard disk re-size
[10:35] <Chr|s> ikonia: because he is having hard drive issues read/write
[10:35] <Derpie> yeah i followed a guide and set up one for it but it wont connect
[10:35] <fisch246> ikonia: yup
[10:35] <ikonia> Chr|s: no it wasn't
[10:35] <ikonia> Chr|s: it was having I/O issues and DMA issues
[10:35] <ljsoftnet> Derpie ah
[10:35] <valium> hi - I know this may get asked alot... anyone recommend a replacement for webmin+openldap
[10:35] <ljsoftnet> Derpie know either
[10:35] <ljsoftnet> Derpie i dont know either
[10:35] <Derpie> i have it so i can choose to use openvpn
[10:35] <friendheart> ikonia: so what do i do?
[10:36] <friendheart> ikonia: can i fix it or is this computer/harddrive busted?
[10:36] <Derpie> but in the settings it asks for 3 different files im supposed to get from my vpn.  i only have one it recognizes and one it doesnt
[10:36] <ikonia> friendheart: the question is why is it having these problems, has it always done it, did it just start, what config are the disks in etc
[10:37] <friendheart> ikonia: basically i used to have windows xp on this, but it stopped working last night and whenever it would get into the windows start screen it would die with a blue screen and reboot
[10:37] <friendheart> ikonia: so i erased windows xp and installed ubuntu over the top
[10:37] <ikonia> friendheart: ok - so it sounds like there is a hardware error on your machine if windows is also crashing
[10:37] <friendheart> ikonia: and now im getting this error
[10:37] <friendheart> this is a fresh install
[10:38] <fisch246> ikonia: well i feel much better about this now... if anything it won't finish the last operation and i'll just have to restart or something and do it then... thanks bro
[10:38] <friendheart> ikonia: i get these errors: https://gist.github.com/a84f22d3d512841f78e4
[10:38] <ikonia> fisch246: you fixed yourself, no problem
[10:38] <friendheart> ikonia: so what can i do?
[10:38] <ikonia> friendheart: it sounds like a hardware error, two OS's are complaining of problems
[10:38] <friendheart> ikonia: so so what does that mean? that the computer/harddrive is broken and i must get a new one?
[10:39] <ikonia> friendheart: it means a part of your computer is having a problem, most likley motherboard/disk/psu - they need fixing/replacing
[10:40] <Chr|s> Yup
[10:41] <Chr|s> ikonia: this is why I said to format the drive, write 0's to the drive. It some cases it does help.
[10:42] <Chr|s> since its a clean install anyways, wouldn't hurt
[10:42] <ikonia> Chr|s: why would that help ?
[10:44] <Chr|s> ikonia: erasing the drive, writing 0's to the drive wipes everything, maybe there was a bad cluster of some sort
[10:44] <Chr|s> I have done it and it has worked in the past for me
[10:45] <llutz> Chr|s: your error seems hardware related, so writing 0s will have no effect
[10:45] <Kartagis> !info virtual
[10:45] <llutz> Chr|s: check cable, psu, run smartmon
[10:45] <Chr|s> llutz: not my error, was just helping someone
[10:45] <Kartagis> !find virtual
[10:46] <llutz> Chr|s: s/your/that/
[10:46] <Chr|s> the hard drive is hardware :D
[10:46] <llutz> Chr|s: yes and cleaning it with 0s in this case is like putting a dead hen on the roof to fix it
[10:47] <Chr|s> llutz: please explans to me why it worked for my situtuation?
[10:47] <Chr|s> explain*
[10:47] <fisch246> Chr|s: weren't you talking about just reformatting? it's different than writing 0's to the drive
[10:47] <Chr|s> fisch246: not really
[10:48] <morgan> im with fisch246 here. a format is not the same as writing 0's.
[10:48] <fisch246> Chr|s: simply reformatting doesn't wipe a hard drive... i managed to accidentally recover an entire filesystem of Ubuntu once after a format...
[10:48] <Chr|s> you are still cleaning the drive/clearning
[10:49] <rhorstkoetter> hi. I'm looking for an advice regarding the maintenance period of ubuntu LTS
[10:49] <Chr|s> fisch246: never said reformatting does, thats why I said write 0's
[10:49] <ikonia> rhorstkoetter: what's up
[10:49] <ikonia> Chr|s: - you're wrong here, so lets just move on, the user appears to be happy getting support on his hardware
[10:49] <rhorstkoetter> afaik, desktop is supported for 3 years, while server for 5 years. this is correct?
[10:49] <ikonia> rhorstkoetter: spot on
[10:50] <Chr|s> ikonia: im not wrong, but thanks
[10:50] <rhorstkoetter> but, what I'm wondering about, what does that mean in particular?
[10:50] <rhorstkoetter> I mean is there a list of packages classified as server packages
[10:50] <ikonia> Chr|s: you are, the user has a hardware problem in 2 OS's that are DMA errors also, formatting or writing 0's to the drive will do nothing
[10:50] <ikonia> rhorstkoetter: the server OS install cd and the desktop OS are slightly different,
[10:51] <rhorstkoetter> I can start with either desktop or server version and build what I'm after
[10:51] <ikonia> rhorstkoetter: I think it's safe to say though, if you use the server OS install and put the desktop on it, the desktop component won't be supported but the underlying OS will
[10:51] <fisch246> rhorstkoetter: i don't suggest using a server and building a desktop... i did it once... a lot of things weren't working quite right...
[10:52] <fisch246> btw i'm referring to "ubuntu-desktop" package
[10:52] <rhorstkoetter> ikonia: that answers my question. I'm just wondering if there's a precise list of components with a 5 year support period. is it?
[10:52] <Chr|s> ikonia: im not going to sit here and argue with you. He also said he was having write errors. Formatting/writing 0's to the drive does work in some situations. It wouldn't of hurt to try.
[10:52] <rhorstkoetter> I mean, desktop isn't and underlying OS is rather vague
[10:52] <ikonia> rhorstkoetter: I don't know for a fact, but I don't believe so
[10:52] <ikonia> Chr|s: read the errors
[10:52] <rhorstkoetter> s/is/is is
[10:52] <rhorstkoetter> ikonia: ok, I see
[10:53] <rhorstkoetter> ikonia: thanks for taking the time explaining
[10:53] <DemoOn> how can i make highlighted text in terminal?
[10:53] <dfff> hi, I have never used any linux before, is there a guide somewhere to help me migrate? I'm a windows user. I'd be interested in what kind of IDE's I can use on linux for c++, c# programming, what kind of graphics programs I can use and the common gotchas...like, I understand that you have to use some kind of console very often in linux? And there is something called sudo...I suppose this is just the same as admin? And what kind of filesy
[10:53] <llutz> chris|: https://ata.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Libata_error_messages
[10:53] <fisch246> rhorstkoetter: i believe "support" generally means updates, bug fixes etc.
[10:53] <rhorstkoetter> fisch246: sure, thus the question is what precise list of packages receive 3 years of updates and which one receives 5 years
[10:54] <DemoOn> dfff: http://tldp.org/guides.html
[10:54] <fisch246> rhorstkoetter: i suppose anything Ubuntu says they support... anything that's 3rd party is a no go unless backed by a PPA
[10:54] <bercik_> Hi guys. I just installed Ubuntu 11.04 on my Tishiba Netbook. What repositories should i add to my source list?
[10:54] <ikonia> bercik_: none
[10:54] <DemoOn> how can i make syntax highlight in terminal like in gentoo by default?
[10:54] <rhorstkoetter> I'm using the maverick meerkat release on all my machines atm but I'm looking forward building a NAS that I wouldn't like to update that often and thus the question is rather interesting to me
[10:55] <ikonia> !natty | bercik_
[10:55] <rhorstkoetter> s/update/release upgrade
[10:55] <bercik_> ikonia: and there will be repos added after the release?
[10:56] <fisch246> rhorstkoetter: well if you get 10.04 you should be set until april 2013
[10:56] <dfff> Demo0n: thanks
[10:56] <rhorstkoetter> fisch246: will do that, thanks
[10:56] <fisch246> rhorstkoetter: just make sure you do "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get upgrade" before doing anything
[10:56] <micc> help please, i am running maverick i386: when i am switching to textmode (ctrl+alt+f1-f6) i am losing all network connections, when i am switching back (alt+f7) i get them back. does anyone know why? and what i can do to have netork connection
[10:56] <nibblyn> !ffmpeg
[10:56] <rhorstkoetter> fisch246: certainly
[10:57] <rhorstkoetter> I'm using ubuntu from 4.10 onwards ;)
[10:57] <majo_> hi. is there any guide/howto install ubuntu from mini.iso?
[10:57] <fisch246> rhorstkoetter: also i suggest not doing  that special partitioning thing they got on server, unless you know what you're doing...
[10:57] <fisch246> someone want to help me out what it's called? i'm tired >.<
[10:58] <fisch246> LVM?
[10:58] <rhorstkoetter> may you have any recommendations/experiences with fs, i.e. experiences with ext4 on LVM VS zfs (fuse) VS btrfs for a NAS device
[10:58] <ikonia> fisch246: what's the problem
[10:58] <DemoOn> how can i make syntax highlight in terminal?
[10:59] <rhorstkoetter> from what I read ext4 on LVM seems to be the most desirable option from a stability perspective. would you second this?
[10:59] <andycc> Hello, I need some help writing a program. I need to get the *usable* screen space of my monitor (i.e. resolution minus the space taken up by panels) via a shell command or Python script (kind of like I can get the total resolution using xwininfo -root and regexes)
[10:59] <fisch246> ikonia: o nothing, just trying to remember that special partitioning that ubuntu server has... is it called LVM?
[10:59] <ikonia> fisch246: lvm is logical volume managment, it's dynamic partitions made out of groups of disks
[10:59] <rwat> rhorstkoetter: so far ext4 has been fine for me
[10:59] <rhorstkoetter> fisch246: I'll certainly use LVM
[10:59] <rhorstkoetter> or btrfs or zfs (fuse)
[10:59] <rhorstkoetter> while I tend to ext4 on LVM
[11:00] <fisch246> rhorstkoetter: no idea, never done LVM... i tend to not use it, as i don't have much experience with it
[11:00] <rwat> rhorstkoetter: btrfs I read is still too immature for real life
[11:00] <Softdroid> Why does it take 10-15 minutes to print out a single page
[11:00] <ghostjelly> Is there a "minimal" installation of Ubuntu I can install. I'm setting up a LAMP server, but I want to learn better by starting with the most basic, lean install of Ubuntu possible. "ubuntu-minimal" seems to just do the same as the usual install, but grab the packages from the web....
[11:00] <DrkShadow> help with output? I have a radeon x1200, installed the xf86 radeon video driver, but when the box boots video goes away.. using HDMI, not VGA, and I don't know whether or not it's on VGA/DVI..
[11:00] <rhorstkoetter> fisch246: I actually used it already, but was looking into btrfs and zfs (fuse) as well
[11:00] <ikonia> ghostjelly: starting with a lean ubuntu won't teach you anything starting with a desktop ubuntu would
[11:00] <rhorstkoetter> most likely ext4 on LVM indeed is the best option available atm
[11:01] <fisch246> rhorstkoetter: ah ok... well i don't use server enough to say anything about that
[11:01] <rwat> ghostjelly: are you starting with the server ISO?
[11:01] <Benkinooby> hi i need some dropbear support. how can i start dropbear without doing the reverse dns lookups? i didn't find any dropbear irc channel...
[11:01] <ghostjelly> ikonia: I have a basic knowledge of the command line, but I want to start from scratch installing and configuring apache etc.
[11:01] <rhorstkoetter> fisch246: perfectly fine. just looking for advice. I mean 1500 people in the room may provide 10 experienced people at least ;)
[11:01] <ghostjelly> rwat: Yeah, I have a Sever Edition installed
[11:02] <ikonia> ghostjelly: ok, installing apache on a desktop machine and installing apache on a minimal install, will still install the same packages and be configured in the same way
[11:02] <rwat> ghostjelly: during install there are options as to what you want to do with it, web/mail etc - if you leave them all unchecked you get a pretty minimal install
[11:02] <fisch246> ghostjelly: well... Ubuntu holds your hand on most of that stuff... generally you can just get server, and get that stuff setup quite easily...
[11:02] <ikonia> ghostjelly: so therefore there is no difference installing a package and configuring it on the desktop or a "minimal" install, so as I've said you will not learn anything
[11:03] <rwat> ikonia: if you're running a server it's best practice to start with the least possible
[11:03] <ghostjelly> I know it sounds weird, but Server installs a whole ton of packages, some of which I don't need or care about, some of which I want to set up myself just for fun
[11:03] <ikonia> rwat: it doesn't matter, the default install is a fine base
[11:03] <ikonia> ghostjelly: remove what you don't want
[11:03] <rwat> ikonia: in your opinion
[11:04] <ghostjelly> If I remove packages, does it warn me about any dependencies? dpkg --get-selection is a rather long list, seems a bit long winded!
[11:04] <ghostjelly> I'd rather start with the bare essentials
[11:04] <ikonia> ghostjelly: it will warn you
[11:04] <ikonia> ghostjelly: just remove what you don't need want
[11:04] <rwat> ghostjelly: use either apt-get or aptitude to remove. it will then tell you what it's about to remove
[11:04] <fisch246> ghostjelly: well if you know how to do all that stuff... i would suggest something more like Arch... not arch per say... but something like it... unless you're just trying to get practice
[11:04] <ikonia> fisch246: arh won't teach him how to use / manage ubuntu
[11:05] <DemoOn> how can i make syntax highlight in terminal?
[11:05] <fisch246> ikonia: o my bad, misunderstood what he wanted
[11:05] <ikonia> DemoOn: what lanauge to you want synatx highlighting
[11:05] <ghostjelly> fisch246: I know it sounds silly but I'm a bit OCD, hehe. Perhaps Ubuntu is the wrong distro for doing this?
[11:05] <ikonia> ghostjelly: no, you're just approaching it wrongt
[11:05] <rhorstkoetter> ok, again thanks for your time. I'm just downloading 10.04.2 server right now and try ext4 on lvm on first attempt. have a good time everyone
[11:05] <DemoOn> ikonia: i want similar to gentoo, it's there by default
[11:05] <ikonia> ghostjelly: the base server install is small, remove anything you don't need
[11:05] <rwat> ghostjelly: do you have an example of something it installed that you don't need?
[11:05] <ikonia> DemoOn: what language do you want highlighting on
[11:05] <fisch246> ghostjelly: not at all :) it's a great stepping stone :)
[11:06] <rwat> I find ubuntu server more compact that some recent debian installations which automatically install portmap (for instance)
[11:06] <fisch246> ghostjelly: i just assumed you want to just screw around on a CLI, instead of wanting to get used to Ubuntu :)
[11:07] <ikonia> rwat: exactly, it's quite tidy out of the box, removing what you don't need should be a small task
[11:07] <rwat> ikonia: which isn't the same as saying "install the desktop version"
[11:07] <DemoOn> ikonia: i dno, just want to see separated things so it would be easier to see what is happening, like commands in one color, my username in other and stuff like that
[11:07] <SgrB> hard disk is detected in gigolo / as dev/sda? but not in installer... it just shows as unpartitioned space with the only option to create new partition table which will delete win7
[11:07] <ikonia> rwat: I didn't say install the desktop version
[11:07] <ghostjelly> fisch246: No, you're right, I just wanted the most minimal CLI installation possible... ikonia's suggestion seems to be the best option?
[11:07] <SgrB> http://pastebin.com/8iPQAXEG
[11:08] <rwat> ghostjelly: If you want to learn about things like bootstrapping and building kernels I would definitely recommend gentoo. Then once you've played with it get a real distribution for real life
[11:08] <fisch246> well arch is meant to be built from the ground up like that, with very little hand holding... editing files and what not
[11:08] <abstrakt> ?
[11:08] <abstrakt> if you want to learn about things like building kernels you should... build kernels
[11:09] <abstrakt> really that means nothing actually, it's worth your time to learn C and learn sysv ipc and then maybe also learn ASM and then maybe also learn kernel internals
[11:09] <fisch246> ikonia: moment of truth with my gparted issue :3
[11:09] <ghostjelly> Alright, thanks all :)
[11:09] <rwat> abstrakt: sometimes this knowledge comes in handy
[11:09] <abstrakt> but otherwise, really? building your kernel? I mean, who does that these days aside from the distribution maintainers and 13 year olds who are trying to get an extra 2.5% performance out of an old pentium
[11:10] <abstrakt> better just to learn the basics of gcc and make
[11:10] <abstrakt> and then stuff like automake / etc
[11:11] <SgrB> hard disk is detected in gigolo / as dev/sda? but not in installer... it just shows as unpartitioned space with the only option to create new partition table which will delete win7 ... dmesg log http://pastebin.com/8iPQAXEG
[11:11] <abstrakt> that'll help you understand software building in general
[11:11] <abstrakt> and that will help you far more than anything should you *actually* be truly called upon to build a kernel
[11:11] <geoaxis> SgrB:  you meant jigdo?
[11:12] <SgrB> geoaxis, nope gigolo.. that comes with xubuntu 10.10 .. it lists the partitions
[11:12] <fisch246> ikonia: yup it crashed... sigh... time to restart then...
[11:12] <ikonia> fisch246: how annoying
[11:14] <DemoOn> what is in /etc/httpd/ folder?
[11:14] <SgrB> hard disk is detected in gigolo / as dev/sda? but not in installer... it just shows as unpartitioned space with the only option to create new partition table which will delete win7 ... dmesg log http://pastebin.com/8iPQAXEG
[11:14] <fisch246> ikonia: alright growing partition
[11:14]  * fisch246 crosses fingers, in hopes this will work
[11:15] <DemoOn> ikonia: found what i needed, just needed to uncomment #force_colored_prompt=yes in bashrc
[11:16] <fisch246> seriously... if this kind of thing happened in windows... i'd be screwed... i'm glad Ubuntu has safety features in place for this sort of thing...
[11:18] <that_is_lg> who are using mongodb please help me
[11:18] <SgrB> i can see my harddisks as /dev/sda1,2,... but gparted or installer doesn't detect them
[11:19] <that_is_lg> what does extractly dbtop do
[11:19] <fisch246> ikonia: booting into resized partition... and... and... it froze >.< no problem though... just restart...
[11:19]  * fisch246 does a dance
[11:19] <that_is_lg> >_<
[11:20]  * fisch246 is happy that "A Clockwork Orange Theme" is greeting him again :D
[11:20] <fisch246> (my login theme)
[11:21] <fisch246> thanks bro :D i now have an extra 80GB to work with
[11:21] <fisch246> (even though i did most of it, you at least made me feel better about what i was doing :P)
[11:23] <SgrB> i can see my harddisks as /dev/sda1,2,... but gparted or installer doesn't detect them
[11:23] <fisch246> well night
[11:23] <Derpie> anyone know where i could go to find someone that could help me set up swissVPN?
[11:23] <montezuma> i can't connect with my 3g modem using wvdial and commandline! the terminal puts out ..."re-sending: ATZ --> modem not responding"
[11:23] <ikonia> Derpie: http://www.swissvpn.net/index.php?cot=cus&lang=en
[11:24] <burntoto> guys, eselect fontconfig list     lists many fonts. What are these fonts for? a lot of them are enable, can i enable all of them?
[11:24] <DemoOn> why i dont have /etc/httpd/conf.d/ if i've installed apache?
[11:25] <ikonia> DemoOn: the config path is different on ubuntu
[11:25] <ikonia> DemoOn: https://help.ubuntu.com shows how to manage a server
[11:26] <furlong> Hi
[11:27] <sagaci> furlong: hi
[11:27] <SgrB> i can see my harddisks as /dev/sda1,2,... but gparted or installer doesn't detect them
[11:27] <rwat> ok what do I need to do to make the network manager applet appear? I've added a 3g dongle to it but it doesn't appear. It is running (according to ps)
[11:27] <furlong> What could be the reason that when I set a system enviroment variable, it is set back to something I did not set once I re-login?
[11:27] <furlong> I write it into /etc/enviroment
[11:28] <somethinginteres> hi all, installing Ubuntu 11.04 from 10.10 and find myself at the grub_rescue prompt which desplays "error: file not found" I'm following the instructions at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20from%20LiveCD to remedy the situation
[11:28] <micc>  help please, i am running maverick i386: when i am switching to textmode (ctrl+alt+f1-f6) i am losing all network connections, when i am switching back (alt+f7) i get them back. does anyone know why? and what i can do to have network connection in textmode
[11:29] <DemoOn> ikonia: can u just say me where it is located?
[11:29] <somethinginteres> I'm using method 2 listed on that page and am wondering if I need to tell "grub-setup" that I have my /home on a seperate partition or if the command supplied on that page is enough
[11:29] <montezuma> i can't connect with wvdial and my 3g modem, the terminal output is "modem not responding" after "re-sending: ATZ". here's my wvdial.conf: http://paste.ubuntu.com/589634/
[11:29] <ikonia> DemoOn: it's a much more complext setup now, hence why I'm suggesting you read that guide that contains the apache2 details
[11:29] <ikonia> DemoOn: it's not just one file in ubuntu
[11:30] <montezuma> the connection did work with networkmanager, but the applet has disappeared and it stops working every day again so I don't want to use it anymore
[11:31] <Ankhwatcher> hey, does anyone know a console command which will tell me when a file was created?
[11:33] <Pumpkin-> Ankhwatcher: ls with some flags. I think -tlc.
[11:34] <rwat> somethinginteres: how does your /home feature in this?
[11:35] <abhijit> hello
[11:35] <rwat> micc: what sort of networking do you have?
[11:35] <Jordan_U> somethinginteres: You don't need to specify anything about a separate /home, but using grub-setup directly is not recommended by the grub developers. I would follow this guide instead: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide
[11:36] <abhijit> i install slim from software center. now when i start my ubuntu it shows ubuntu logo screen and once flash and then agian ubuntu logo and then it hangs. nothing happens. if i press esc it telss it is busy launching slim. now i am in live cd. how to change to gdm from this live cd?
[11:36] <abhijit> help
[11:36] <rwat> montezuma: having the same problem with the nm applet
[11:36] <rwat> montezuma: where did it go?
[11:37] <abhijit> i install slim from software center. now when i start my ubuntu it shows ubuntu logo screen and once flash and then agian ubuntu logo and then it hangs. nothing happens. if i press esc it telss it is busy launching slim. now i am in live cd. how to change to gdm from this live cd?
[11:37] <montezuma> rwat: it used to disappear every once in a while and return after several reboots, but now it's gone forever it seems.
[11:37] <abhijit> hep
[11:37] <majo_> hi. i'd like to install ubuntu from mini.iso: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD - is there any guide how to do this?
[11:38] <montezuma> rwat: it is running, the notification area is not crashed, it's the same problem with every theme so it's not an icon issue - i don't know what else it could be
[11:39] <erUSUL> majo_: should be quite similar to the alternatecd install
[11:39] <erUSUL> !alternate
[11:39] <majo_> !minimal
[11:39] <erUSUL> majo_: but it downloads the packages from the net
[11:40] <montezuma> gotta go now, damn
[11:40] <montezuma> no internet again
[11:40] <montezuma> cu
[11:41] <Oli````> Anybody know how to do a super-minimal install? eg without installing ubuntu-standard and all its garb?
[11:42] <majo_> Oli````: you need to use mini.iso
[11:42] <satya> hello
[11:42] <erUSUL> Oli````: choose a different distro if you want more control. debian dbootstrap build from there
[11:43] <satya> wireless network could not connect in ubuntu  maverick
[11:44] <majo_> erUSUL: does alternate install will give me a chance to choose packages that wan't to install?
[11:44] <erUSUL> majo_: no; only minimal will
[11:44] <Oli````> majo_: yeah that still bundles through and downloads and installs everything in ubuntu-standard
[11:45] <Oli````> I know it can be done somehow as one of my VPS companies does an install of Ubuntu that doesn't include ubuntu-standard
[11:45] <majo_> what tool should i use to prepare my usb pendrive for mini.iso? Universal-USB-Installer? (yes, i'm doing that from windows)
[11:46] <Oli````> majo_: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ should work
[11:46] <ProNihilist> I use LiLi USB Creator
[11:46] <majo_> ProNihilist: for mini.iso?
[11:46] <majo_> Oli````: thanks
[11:47] <ProNihilist> majo_: I've used it for all my pen drives, usually works even if it doesn't have the iso in it's database
[11:47] <iceroot_> !usb | majo_

[11:54] <Guest72337> am I in the correct chat here?
[11:54] <Guest72337> would ubuntu work fully functionally on a clean install on a new pc?
[11:55] <Fudge> yes
[11:55] <Guest72337> I heard it works best if paired on a machine with windows
[11:55] <Guest72337> excellent
[11:55] <Fudge> incorrect
[11:55] <Guest72337> sorry to jump in on your convo fella's
[11:56] <Fudge> it is a stand alone system that can run along side windows independently or be amungst partitions with multiple operating systems upon them
[11:56] <hareesh> epzil0n:  the output  of lshw is http://pastebin.com/fbbqjgZ5
[11:56] <Fudge> its a support channel, thats what its for
[11:56] <Fudge> anyone aware if there is a vietnamese  fork version of ubuntu

[12:00] <Fudge> enjoy your experience and utilise this channel and the ubuntu support forums and wiki for ways to find answers to questions or pimp your install
[12:00] <Guest72337> I will
[12:00] <Guest72337> I almost ran linux last year
[12:00] <Guest72337> was not happy with xp
[12:00] <Guest72337> slow
[12:00] <Guest72337> stupid
[12:01] <Guest72337> not good at all really
[12:01] <DemoOn> Guest72337: good only for games
[12:01] <Guest72337> ubuntu is equal in function to windows 7 tho
[12:01] <Guest72337> you'd say?
[12:01] <Guest72337> media player good etc
[12:02] <Guest72337> been using open office for a while now
[12:02] <satya> iwconfig output does not show  wireless interface
[12:02] <satya> how to do it
[12:02] <Keshi`> Guest72337: LibreOffice.
[12:02] <Keshi`> Better.

[12:03] <il^> hi guys, i using ubuntu on my htpc connected to 42 lcd display  i wonder is it possible to assign different screen resolution for different workspaces or have an option to switch resolution from lowest to highest using keyboard shortcust ?
[12:03] <Guest72337> name's andrew btw
[12:03] <Fudge> yes, Guest72337  not to get pulled into a windows vs linux debate, but I find that ubuntu has apps tha tserv my purpose and i am happier with them over the apps i liked in windows. but hunt around for what you like and you will find something
[12:03] <Fudge> you can even install remastersys and remaster your install to install onto other computers if that is your wish
[12:04] <il^> meaning i want boxee to be on mx resolution , but everything esle on lowest
[12:04] <epzil0n> satya: if you run sudo lshw -C network does it show your wireless interface?
[12:04] <Guest72337> look in tools/appearance
[12:05] <Guest72337> on the vrowser or whatever
[12:05] <il^> somebody using ubuntu as htpc ? may be other ideas how to use it efficently ?
[12:06] <Guest72337> :)
[12:07] <radiohead> :)
[12:08] <ky4er_> hi all
[12:09] <satya> epzil0n: no. the output of sudo lshw -C network does not show the wireless interface.
[12:09] <Keshi^> Guest72337: It is basically a replacement for go-oo.
[12:09] <Keshi^> It will be in Ubuntu and Redhat from the next releases I think.
[12:09] <Keshi^> They are trying to move away from Java a bit and the domination of the project by Sun/Oracle.
[12:10] <benzaldehyde> i can't get encrypted dvd video to playback
[12:10] <Keshi^> The development is much more active than OOo basically...IDK.
[12:11] <epzil0n> satya: ok, have to look into that.. did it work under 10.04 or is this the first Ubuntu you have on it?
[12:13] <benzaldehyde> Keshi^: Who is?
[12:13] <Keshi^> benzaldehyde: LibreOffice for the moment seemingly.
[12:14] <Guest72337> 10.1 is the latest version?
[12:14] <satya> epzil0n: it is the first ubuntu
[12:14] <benzaldehyde> Keshi^: you don't think that is wise choise
[12:14] <BobbyBobbins> Is extracting Ubuntu 10.10's iso with 7zip and installing it with wubi.exe in the folder a valid way of installing ubuntu, or must I burn the iso to a cd
[12:14] <benzaldehyde> Guest72337: of, ubuntu?
[12:14] <Guest72337> yes
[12:14] <Keshi^> I do not understand your last sentence. Pardon me, benzaldehyde.
[12:15] <benzaldehyde> Guest72337: latest stable is 10.10 maverick meerkat
[12:15] <Guest72337> ty
[12:15] <benzaldehyde> Guest72337: latest beta is 11.04 natty narwhal due out in 6 days
[12:15] <Guest72337> nice names
[12:16] <benzaldehyde> Guest72337: i.e. will be stable
[12:16] <satya> epzil0n: it is the first ubuntu on this laptop
[12:16] <Guest72337> I'm running japanese jellyfish on my phone
[12:16] <benzaldehyde> Guest72337: i just got here too
[12:16] <Guest72337> android
[12:16] <epzil0n> satya: ok
[12:17] <BobbyBobbins> 11.04 is due out in 6 days? i thought it was releasing at the end of the month.
[12:17] <BobbyBobbins> anyway.
[12:18] <benzaldehyde> BobbyBobbins: ubottu has a thing about it
[12:18] <benzaldehyde> !natty
[12:18] <satya> epzil0n: how to do it?
[12:18] <epzil0n> satya: some suggest this: sudo rfkill unblock all and then check the output of sudo lshw -C network again
[12:18] <a1batross> привет здесь есть русские
[12:18] <benzaldehyde> BobbyBobbins: i must have thought it said 11 of April
[12:18] <Keshi^> 11.04 should be interesting.
[12:18] <Keshi^> I think it is the 26th or something, can't remember.
[12:18]  * a1batross сошел с ума
[12:18] <DrkShadow> I was spammed by "armond", and the closest matching name is in here: armenb, armenb_
[12:18] <DemoOn> BobbyBobbins: i like to install it from usb flash drive, because if something goes wrong later i can fix it from it and it's faster than cd and i don't even have cd-rom
[12:19] <the_mole> a1batross: can you stop that
[12:19] <Guest72337> for my first ubuntu am I better off going for the long term supprot 10.04  or the latest 10.1 version?
[12:19] <BobbyBobbins> thanks benzald. so april 28, thought it was at the end of the month
[12:19] <BobbyBobbins> and alright demon, I don't have a CD-rom atm either (temporary, though). Maybe I'll make a boot USB.
[12:19] <Guest72337> nyet
[12:20] <DemoOn> does ubuntu comes only on april and october?
[12:20] <Guest72337> govyrayo nyet po-russki
[12:20] <osmosis_paul> Hi somebody can remind me how can i open one port for outside machine. MySQL port to monitorizing remotely
[12:20] <satya> epzil0n: same output. no change
[12:20] <BobbyBobbins> actually, do you think its better if I just wait til april 28 for the release of 11.4, instead of installing 10.10 now and having to upgrade?
[12:20] <huidag> what is ubunty?
[12:21] <huidag> ubuntu
[12:21] <BobbyBobbins> ^not sure if srs
[12:21] <huidag> i think its an open source OS?
[12:21] <Guest72337> yes
[12:22] <huidag> oh ok. im not trolling. just ignorant
[12:22] <benzaldehyde> BobbyBobbins: i think you might want to wait, i loaded some 3rd party software and upgrde-manger would not let me upgrade to the beta
[12:22] <DJones> !ubuntu > huidag
[12:22] <satya> epzil0n: the output of sudo lshw -C network is http://pastebin.com/YFrTQ6Q7
[12:22] <benzaldehyde> BobbyBobbins: incidentally i am on beta now
[12:22] <Keshi__> BBIAB.
[12:23] <huidag> thanks for that.
[12:23] <ThinkT510> there is LTS for ubuntu desktop and LTS for server but I was wondering is there a mini iso that is LTS, to build up your own environment as you wish?
[12:23] <epzil0n> satya: ok no luck with that.. your wifi card is BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY so try googling that
[12:23] <BobbyBobbins> alright fair enough
[12:23] <satya> epzil0n: ok
[12:23] <BobbyBobbins> I'll wait it out
[12:24] <DemoOn> ThinkT510: isn't arch linux better for that?
[12:24] <epzil0n> i find a lot of info so you are not the only one with problem with that NIC, i can check if i find a solution
[12:24] <basil_kurian_> One of my apache installtion is continously crashing and throwing coredump to error log
[12:25] <ikonia> basil_kurian_: you should only have 1 apache install
[12:25] <red2kic> ThinkT510: amd64?
[12:25] <ThinkT510> DemoOn: oddly enough thats what i'm on, but it needs to be updated frequently, so i was looking for something that can go for a long time between updates
[12:26] <basil_kurian_> ikonia: this is the coredump http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/589646/
[12:26] <benzaldehyde> ikonia: i can not access encrypted dvd video even though i apt-got libdvdcss2
[12:26] <ThinkT510> red2kic: preferably i686
[12:26] <ThinkT510> red2kic: its for my T60
[12:26] <ikonia> basil_kurian_: you should not have multiple apache installs
[12:27] <red2kic> ThinkT510: I found http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/ -- but I don't know if that quality as mini.iso (because it was under netboot)
[12:27] <red2kic> ThinkT510: Oh it is. Also...
[12:27] <red2kic> !mini | ThinkT510
[12:28] <ThinkT510> red2kic: is it LTS?
[12:28] <benzaldehyde> !headless
[12:28] <red2kic> ThinkT510: 10.04 is.
[12:28] <oleh-nsd> Having a few problems with Samba Printer Authentication. It used to work just fine in 10.04, but the printer won't accept me in 10.10. Have there been any changes since 10.04?
[12:28] <ThinkT510> red2kic: and that applies to the mini iso / netboot
[12:29] <ThinkT510> ?
[12:29] <red2kic> ThinkT510: Yes. Version is version.
[12:29] <red2kic> !lts
[12:29] <ThinkT510> red2kic: awesome, thanks
[12:29] <red2kic> ThinkT510: See that? 10.04. :)
[12:29] <red2kic> ThinkT510: Np.
[12:31] <ThinkT510> red2kic: the thing is, i was looking at xubuntu 10.04 and it doesn't specify it as LTS, only the ubuntu (gnome) versions
[12:33]  * benzaldehyde sets mode /ignore -channel #ubuntu * modes
[12:33] <red2kic> ThinkT510: Ah, I see. That's a good question. I know 10.04 to be LTS -- and it should apply the same to all -- regardless of which variant you use.
[12:33] <ThinkT510> red2kic: it certainly doesn't apply to kubuntu last i looked
[12:34] <red2kic> ThinkT510: Check Update Sources (make sure it's still on LTS; not latest release).
[12:34] <ThinkT510> red2kic: i was always under the impression only the gnome releases were LTS
[12:34] <ThinkT510> red2kic: will do, thanks
[12:34] <red2kic> ThinkT510: That may be the case, I'm not sure. I like bleeding edges, not LTS.
[12:35] <benzaldehyde> red2kic: same here
[12:35] <ThinkT510> red2kic: me too, thats why i run arch, but this is for something different (right tool for the job)
[12:36] <Flizzer> Hello ! How can I avoid, when booting on a LiveCD, to select the "language" BEFORE installing the dist? When I boot on a LiveCD, it asks me to choose a language for the LiveCD, maybe a thing with isolinux?
[12:36] <red2kic> ThinkT510: I run arch here too. Yeah. I always have been to give debian a try because it's a rocking solid stable.
[12:36] <red2kic> (For right tool for the jobs)

[12:51] <Vancha> i dont have a css file, i dont know css :O
[12:51] <Vancha> its written in php

[12:51] <fairuz> Vancha: what do you mean by look horrible? Like missing CSS or what
[12:51] <Vancha> thats it :(
[12:51] <Vancha> it does look like its missing css, but it doesnt have css :o
[12:51] <Vancha> also it doesnt display any images
[12:51] <fairuz> Vancha: What does it show then? :D

[12:54] <sachael> hi, is it possible from within a running ubuntu to install another ubuntu on another partition?
[12:55] <iceroot_> sachael: yes but not on the common way, you need debootstrap + chroot (and you dont want to do it)
[12:55] <ikonia> sachael: not really no
[12:55] <fairuz> Vancha: It's your own PHP script or a script like wordpress etc
[12:55] <sachael> iceroot_, challenge accepted! :D
[12:56] <Vancha> its my own php :o
[12:56] <Vancha> guys... im sorry to have bothered you :)

[12:57] <Vancha> it needed to be changed

[13:01] <d3vic3> Vancha: always use / in your paths and check your relative paths in CSS files
[13:02] <d3vic3> sachael: use virtualbox

[13:10] <d3vic3> sachael: didn't came across such a thing as installing ubuntu from within already another running ubuntu, you want a dual boot perhaps?
[13:10] <rileyp> how to auto selct differnt refresh rates
[13:11] <rileyp> i have selected it but it always selct 60 hz
[13:11] <llutz_> rileyp: crt or tft/lcd?
[13:11] <sachael> d3vic3, the thing is, I am dual-booting, 11.04 beta and 10.10. I kind screwed the 10.10 and want to quickly reinstall it from within the 11.04 while continuing to do some other work.
[13:13] <rileyp> sorry wrong channel was intended for zbmc
[13:13] <rileyp> xbmc
[13:16] <d3vic3> sachael: you'll have to fix it by hand, editing some files may be... if you're facing trouble accessing filesystem try a check on that partition first
[13:16] <d3vic3> !fsck | sachael
[13:17] <llutz_> sudo shutdown -F won't work with ubuntu
[13:18] <zagibu> what about sudo halt?
[13:18] <benzaldehyde> zagibu: what about judo chop :D
[13:18] <llutz_> zagibu: its just "-F" which won't work as desired, all other options are ok
[13:18] <rileyp> llutz what does the -f do?
[13:18] <DemoOn> sudo shutdown -h 0 works
[13:19] <rileyp> MM I use -h now
[13:19] <red2kic> $ sudo poweroff
[13:19] <llutz_> rileyp: -F  was "force fsck on boot", taken off ubuntu a few yrs ago. i don't know exactly why
[13:20] <rileyp> I thought -F may have been force fsck lol
[13:20] <danub> hey all
[13:20] <zagibu> sudo halt worked fine on my ubuntu virtual box
[13:20] <truepurple> hi
[13:20] <danub> anyone know how to forward X thru putty to a windows machine?
[13:20] <red2kic> Install X Server on Windows machine first.
[13:21] <d3vic3> danub: you need xming or similar on windows
[13:21] <rileyp> you can change  it in /etc/defaults somewhere to force fsck I think
[13:21] <truepurple> Would someone please see if they can help me with a messed up video card driver or something causing me to be unable to get to desktop? http://ubuntuforums.org/search.php?searchid=80294492

[13:25] <aguitel> red2kic, thanks
[13:26] <truepurple> rileyp: At a command prompt? What is that suppose to do?
[13:26] <rileyp> then logoin and sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf and fix it!
[13:26] <red2kic> aguitel: There are dvd+rw-format too (but you said dvd-rw) and I have no idea if that's same/different thing.
[13:27] <truepurple> rileyp: I presse ctrl alt f1, no visible effect of any kind, is that usual?
[13:27] <rileyp> truepurple,   what wre you doing to stuff desktop bad res?
[13:28] <truepurple> rileyp: I did not understand that
[13:28] <rileyp> true I d know all you said is no desktop pretty much has it gone through boot process
[13:29] <truepurple> rileyp: Please read thread I provided a link for
[13:29] <Schuibert> you search an free operating linux system without the unity? http://www.snowlinux.de/
[13:29] <rileyp> okay
[13:30] <sacarlson1> truepurple: from what I read on your link you are already in the command prompt with no graphics, am I correct?
[13:30] <Abhijit> whats is the better way to edit/change login screen theme? i tried slim and it ruined my x. now i got success to get it back to gdm. help
[13:31] <truepurple> sacarlson1: Yes, now it just asks me to log in, and puts me straight into command prompt screen with no graphics of any kind
[13:31] <Abhijit> help
[13:32] <rileyp> So now I don't get a desktop, I no longer auto-log in but have to log in with password, and now I get just a command prompt.
[13:32] <sacarlson1> truepurple: also with all those links I see,  There is almost nothing that adds what hardware you are working with other than an ati card,  why didn't you add the sudo lshw to your links
[13:32] <rileyp> true purp your a noob and you want to use a ati card with ubuntu lol your crazy bro
[13:32] <truepurple> I meant this link http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1721391  and I specified there a radeon 6850
[13:33] <Pici> !noob | rileyp
[13:33] <rileyp> go to a screen log in and sudo rm /etc/xorg.conf
[13:33] <truepurple> Anyway yes, this is my first time using linux
[13:33] <rileyp> lol the bot loves me
[13:33] <sacarlson1> truepurple:  are you not aware of what you can try after you login from the command prompt.  I would start by renameing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file if you didn't already try that
[13:34] <truepurple> sacarlson1: Is that what rileyp is talking about?
[13:34] <rileyp> yes it is but Im saying delete it completey
[13:34] <sacarlson1> truepurple: yes,
[13:35] <sacarlson1> truepurple: rileyp: that's fine too just delete it
[13:35] <truepurple> sacarlson1: Is there possible reason to preserve it?
[13:35] <rileyp> you cold try moving it and  renaming your old on
[13:35] <truepurple> sacarlson1: No way deleting it could make things worse?
[13:35] <chemicalvamp> !catalyst -> chemicalvamp
[13:35] <sacarlson1> truepurple: not much it's a simple command to recreate it and later you may need to custom modify what it creates
[13:36] <rileyp> go to a prompt yes to fix it but really You need a working gui on your linux machine if you are new to
[13:36] <truepurple> trying that now
[13:36] <sacarlson1> truepurple: if you prefer to keep it try the mv command learn how to use it with man mv
[13:37] <chemicalvamp> Can somebody tell me the command for ATI's catalyst control center, and i dont mean ati-config
[13:37] <sacarlson1> truepurple: you will need to learn some basics of command shell if you don't already
[13:37] <rileyp> truepurple,  xorg.conf contains all the info you pc needs to start a desktop it sets the resolution and video driver etc
[13:37] <truepurple> sacarlson1: rileyp: It says it can not remove due to no such file or directory
[13:38] <sacarlson1> truepurple:  is this a laptop?"
[13:38] <rileyp> ok type cd /etc/X11
[13:38] <truepurple> sacarlson1: Desktop I put together
[13:39] <truepurple> rileyp: done
[13:39] <rileyp> now typw ls
[13:39] <rileyp> type ls
[13:39] <rileyp> and you have a list of files
[13:39] <sacarlson1> truepurple: if you built it next time I suggest you use nvidia hardware it's much better supported in linux
[13:39] <rileyp> your problem file is xorg.conf
[13:40] <truepurple> rileyp: and now tell you EVERYTHING here?
[13:40] <rileyp> no
[13:40] <truepurple> rileyp:  xorg.conf is not here
[13:40] <chemicalvamp> command for catalyst control center please
[13:40] <truepurple> rileyp: oops I see it
[13:41] <rileyp> ok you can look at it if you want cat xorg.conf
[13:41] <truepurple> rileyp: "rem xorg.conf"
[13:41] <truepurple> k
[13:41] <rileyp> now under driver it prolly says ati
[13:41] <truepurple> ok, I did so, but its too long to see everthing
[13:42] <rileyp> never mind just delete the file and you can make a new one easy
[13:42] <truepurple> How do I have it show pages? The stuff it says is too long to show all of it on one screen, and I can't scroll back
[13:42] <rileyp> sudo rm xorg.conf
[13:42] <truepurple> rileyp: How do i have it show pages anyway?
[13:42] <laranz> how to install cardio dock offline, i dont have internet connection
[13:42] <rileyp> you can open it in nano if you want nano /xorg.conf
[13:42] <truepurple> rileyp: For info screens otherwise too big to see on one page
[13:43] <rileyp> no / sorry
[13:43] <sacarlson1> truepurple: the command less will let you pan up and down a file
[13:43] <Abhijit> how to manage login screen theme ?

[13:44] <gnewb> Abhijit: What Window Manager are you using?
[13:44] <rileyp> truepurp if you remove xorg.conf  ubuntu will use default drivers and your desktop will start.
[13:44] <Abhijit> gnewb, gnome.gdm.
[13:44] <xiaoy> How come skype doesn't work on ubuntu 64?
[13:44] <truepurple> rileyp: There is no mention of ati in there

[13:48] <chemicalvamp> ctmjr it looks familliar, but no >.< i know its something like that
[13:49] <truepurple> and startx has loaded me into desktop! thankyou!
[13:50] <arand> Chorman: "cd folder && tar -czf ../folder.tar..gz file1 file2 file3" Like so you mean?
[13:50] <rileyp> no worries make sure you google how to do it and learn how to cut and paste from a command line using mv and cp  so to resolve problem next time
[13:50] <Misiur> Hello there. Is nginx good choice for local server?
[13:50] <rileyp> truepurple, no worries make sure you google how to do it and learn how to cut and paste from a command line using mv and cp  so to resolve problem next time
[13:50] <DJones> !info fglrx-amdcccle
[13:50] <DJones> chemicalvamp: Is that the one
[13:50] <ctmjr> chemicalvamp, try this amdcccle
[13:50] <truepurple> rileyp: sacarlson1:  So which driver should I install, and how would I install the one from ATI?
[13:51] <Chorman> arand: not tar.gz ... I want tar.bz2 :)
[13:51] <chemicalvamp> amdcccle is it thanks alot :D
[13:51] <arand> Chorman: Well, tar -xjf ../folder.tar.bz2 (..)  then
[13:51]  * chemicalvamp writes it down on the desk
[13:51] <Pici> arand: you mean c not x
[13:51] <arand> Chorman: "-cjf"
[13:51] <truepurple> rileyp: Interesting that I can cut and paste from a command line, but I don't see that being all that useful?
[13:51] <arand> Pici: Indeed
[13:52] <armando> Hi. How do you install tar.bz files?
[13:52] <Chorman> arand: thank you :)
[13:52] <sacarlson1> truepurple: what you need to look at for future reference for us to help is pastebinit
[13:53] <rileyp> true purp you creat a new xorg.conf by typeing sudo xconfig that will produce a default xorg.conf
[13:53] <truepurple> sacarlson1: The thread served the same purpose, I just messed up and put up the wrong link
[13:53] <arand> armando: (If it is source code, compile and checkinstall...) What program is it?
[13:53] <rileyp> truepurp you creat a new xorg.conf by typeing sudo xconfig that will produce a default xorg.conf
[13:53] <truepurple> rileyp: And why would I want to create a new one?
[13:53] <Abhijit> anyone lukcy person able to run slim on 64 bit lucid here? can you please guide me how to setup it?
[13:53] <Abhijit> help
[13:54] <sacarlson1> truepurple: and it missed giving the hardware info with sudo lshw
[13:54] <armando> arand: it's just a general question. I've never been able to install one. I always look for deb files to avoid it
[13:54] <truepurple> sacarlson1: I did not understand that
[13:54] <arand> !compile > armando
[13:54] <rileyp> truepurple,   then look at it closely and you will learn all about it. then
[13:54] <Flizzer> Hi ! I have a problem when adding a file "lang" in the isolinux of my LiveCD ; it does not boot anymore
[13:55] <sacarlson1> !lshw | truepurple  not that we need it now since it works
[13:55] <truepurple> rileyp: xorg you mean?
[13:55] <Paddy_NI> hey sacarlson1
[13:55] <rileyp> truepurp yes sorry
[13:55] <armando> arand: how? I'm on xchat
[13:56] <sacarlson1> Paddy_NI: do you have a question?
[13:56] <rileyp> truepurp  the command is sudo xconfig as I said that will create a new xorg.conf a default linux one
[13:56] <arand> armando: Check the link ubottu redirected to you
[13:56] <rileyp> ubuntu ones sorry
[13:56] <Paddy_NI> sacarlson1: Just trying to phrase it right :P
[13:56] <rethus> where does all the fonts saved in ubuntu?
[13:57] <gnewb> !fonts | rethus
[13:57] <truepurple> sacarlson1: You mean not needing sudo lshw?
[13:57] <Abhijit> anyone lukcy person able to run slim on 64 bit lucid here? can you please guide me how to setup it?
[13:57] <armando> Oh yes. got a little confused there on the names
[13:57] <sacarlson1> truepurple: no sudo lshw will give more details I had hoped the ubottu could tell you the details
[13:58] <DMDean> Can anyone help me install Kdenlive? I downloaded it and now when I open it it immediately crashes
[13:59] <Shawn727> Hey all
[13:59] <armando> arand, ubottu: that's exactly what I needed. thanks
[13:59] <Paddy_NI> A client of mine has over 20 hours of audio on a dictaphone which she wants transcribed to text, I have already bought dragon naturally speaking for their windows install which failed miserably to understand.  Is there anything on linux which might be more up to the task?
[13:59] <Shawn727> Does anyone need help?
[13:59] <tanelorn26> I get a package error during the install of 11.04 amd64.  anything special I need to do?
[13:59] <larious> How do I enable my multiverse repository 10.04
[13:59] <DMDean> Can anyone help me install Kdenlive? I downloaded it and now when I open it it immediately crashes
[13:59] <arand> !natty ,< tanelorn26
[13:59] <Pici> tanelorn26: Start asking in #ubuntu+1, as that is the 11.04 support channel
[13:59] <btQuark> greetings
[13:59] <tanelorn26> thanks
[13:59] <larious> How do I enable my multiverse repository 10.04
[14:00] <btQuark> i've ubuntu 10.04.2 at my hands here and a lenovo x200 containing a intel 5300 wlan chipset
[14:00] <btQuark> i've tried 10.10 as well
[14:00] <arand> larious: preference in ubuntu software centre
[14:00] <btQuark> issue is: 802.11n does not work and the system freezes up every so many mintes for >20 seconds
[14:00] <Abhijit> !multiverse | larious
[14:01] <rileyp> btqaurk you need to google for a guide wlan cards and linus are painful items
[14:01] <btQuark> there are confirmed bugreports on this and even the latest kernel from natty does not fix it - even when using the latest intel microcode
[14:01] <btQuark> so i wondered if there are any more intelligent solutions in here
[14:01] <btQuark> ah, google says "kernel's defect"
[14:02] <larious> I have update my ubuntu package once, can I install those package offline
[14:02] <rileyp> btQuark,  if ther are bug reports and stuff no one here will fix it for you with wireless cards  laptops its best to buy one that is known to work with linux
[14:02] <btQuark> which basically makes me use windows on the box, and maybe use ubuntu in virtualbox for unimportant stuff and trying around
[14:02] <btQuark> rileyp thanks for the confirmation
[14:02] <larious> I have update my ubuntu package once, can I install those package offline
[14:02]  * btQuark clicks on the final buy at the apple.com shop
[14:03] <rileyp> btquark it may be you need to use a differnt version of linux one where you card is working well
[14:03] <tez> hi. what is the name of the german ubuntu support chan plz?
[14:03] <sacarlson1> larious: for another system?  yes
[14:03] <Deamos> LOL
[14:03] <truegff> Hi, ppl. I've a problem with my wireless. It shuts down, and sometimes not even comes up. I have Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Pa2510 laptop with 10.10 on it.
[14:03] <Pici> tez: #ubuntu-de
[14:03] <larious> I have update my ubuntu package once, can I install those package offline
[14:03] <tez> thx a lot Pici ;)
[14:04] <btQuark> truegff as far as i've understood rileyp apple.com should help you with your isse
[14:04] <btQuark> ;)
[14:04] <sacarlson1> larious: as long as you don't do apt-get clean you should still have the deb files in your cache
[14:04] <toad__> how to adjust screen brightness with command line? Anyone? I was told this would work "echo -n 100 > /proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCD/brightness"
[14:04] <DMDean> Can anyone help me install Kdenlive? I downloaded it and now when I open it it immediately crashes
[14:04] <toad__> but I get no such file or directory
[14:04] <truegff> btQuark you want me to switch to Apple :D
[14:04] <toad__> DMDean, try redownloading it
[14:04] <truegff> ?
[14:04] <sipior> btQuark: baiting is considered poor manners here.
[14:05] <Abhijit> DMDean, go to terminal and from there do kdenlive and pastebin the errors. use pastebin. do not directly post here.
[14:05] <Paddy_NI> sacarlson1: any ideas... I'm trying my best to think outside the box here... I already tried recording the dictaphone audio in audacity and got the same bad results from dragon?
[14:05] <btQuark> truegff sipior i was asked to buy supported hardware. apple is unix and supports its hardware
[14:05] <hum0zuryt> hi.. one question.. i got more than one user in my /home/ how can i do it so all the users that are not admin, cant view /home with ls for example (so it wont show the other username directorys) only allow to ls his own /home/dir
[14:05] <truegff> btQuark thanks
[14:05] <sipior> btQuark: then use them.
[14:05] <sacarlson1> Paddy_NI: you want to record the audio generated from another application?
[14:06] <rileyp> btQuark,  truegff  if you have wirelss lan card issues with it not installing or operating no one here will be able to help these are very technical issues and will only be resoved by the devs. We here offer a little freindly my desktop wont start sorta help
[14:06] <Paddy_NI> sacarlson1: No I have over 20 hours of audio in a dictaphone which I want transcribed to text
[14:06] <toad__> hum0zuryt, idk
[14:06] <toad__> each user should have there own directory I would imagine
[14:06] <larious> sacarlson1: how do i access my cache
[14:06] <toad__> so unless they knew each others pw's
[14:06] <d3vic3> hum0zuryt: set the default umask
[14:06] <toad__> what does that do?
[14:06] <d3vic3> !umask | hum0zuryt
[14:07] <larious> sacarlson1: how do i access my cache
[14:07] <hum0zuryt> !umask | hum0zuryt
[14:07] <sacarlson1> Paddy_NI: I don't know of any software for voice to text in linux that works yet,  it's been some time since I tried it and I know they have been working on it
[14:07] <toad__> use google voice
[14:07] <Paddy_NI> sacarlson1: Yeah I hear canonical are looking in to it
[14:07] <toad__> setup a good voice accnt, then call yourself, leave a message
[14:07] <toad__> and itll transcribe to text
[14:07] <Paddy_NI> toad__: ?
[14:07] <sacarlson1> Paddy_NI: I have had success with using voice commands in linux but that's about the end of my success
[14:07] <llutz_> hum0zuryt: set the user-homes to 700 user:user
[14:07] <rileyp> btQuark,  Im not suggesting apple so i no bite but Im saying if you want linux on a laptop make sure you get one that perhasp comes with linux installed as then you know its compatible else they would not sell.
[14:08] <d3vic3> hum0zuryt: http://ubuntudemon.wordpress.com/2007/10/24/default-umask/
[14:08] <toad__> im not sure what your voice is on, but gVoice does a good job transcribing, idk if this helps you at all
[14:08] <larious> sacarlson1: how do i access my cache
[14:08] <hum0zuryt> llutz_: thanls ill try that :)
[14:08] <rileyp> that way you know the installed wifi will play ball or google and do homework
[14:08] <Paddy_NI> toad__: cheers for the suggestion anyway mate.. I'll have a look
[14:09] <sacarlson1> Paddy_NI: I think there are three projects you could try them all and tell me if one works yet
[14:09] <toad__> im not sure if google is invite only yet
[14:09] <sacarlson1> larious: on your local system you just reinstall an application and it will use your cache
[14:10] <jeroendv> how come ssh-keygen -y can generate the public key from a private key? shouldn't that be impossible? or am I missing something here?
[14:10] <sacarlson1> larious: you can also use the files that are collectec in the apt-get cache to create your own local lan repository
[14:10] <daschl> hey guys, i noticed that since 10.10 my hosts file changes (network manager?) and my custom settings are removed.. how can i persist them?
[14:11] <hum0zuryt> llutz_: if i do a ls /home i can view all directorys from every user if i do a ls /home/user i get permission denied... i want users to get a permission denied when they do ls /home/ .. will i need to chmod 700 /home/ then?
[14:11] <Paddy_NI> sacarlson1: Do you know which ones are active?
[14:11] <sipior> jeroendv: how would public-key cryptography work if you couldn't do that?
[14:11] <Paddy_NI> sacarlson1: Some appear to have been completely abandoned sadly
[14:12] <llutz_> hum0zuryt: yes
[14:12] <sacarlson1> larious: you have not been specific as to what you plan or what you want to use the cache files for so here is an example of a local repository http://www.packtpub.com/article/create-local-ubuntu-repository-using-apt-mirror-apt-cacher
[14:12] <jeroendv> sipior: I though the public an private key formed a whole, lose one and the other is useless?!?
[14:12] <llutz_> hum0zuryt: argh, stop no. that will break user logins
[14:13] <sipior> jeroendv: the private keyfile (not the private key itself!), provides enough information to regenerate the public key.
[14:13] <sacarlson1> Paddy_NI: no it's been about 3 to 4 years since I explored it and I just glanned a few months ago and just saw no total success but about 3 working projects
[14:14] <Paddy_NI> sacarlson1: Okay fair enough sir.. I will see what comes of this
[14:14] <Paddy_NI> :)
[14:14] <sacarlson1> Paddy_NI: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speech_recognition_in_Linux
[14:15] <hum0zuryt> llutz_: any suggestion?
[14:15] <jeroendv> sipior: nice to know, thanks, reading the ssh-keygen man page just now started me a bit, fearing that my whole idea of PKI was somehow wrong
[14:15] <llutz_> hum0zuryt: not off hand, sry
[14:17] <sipior> jeroendv: you'll notice that the private key file is bigger than the public one. remember that both keys come from a single initial number. with that number and the private key, you can derive the other trivially.
[14:19] <jeroendv> sipior: right. My world is breaking apart at the seams, qiete a relieve ;-) thanks for the fast respons
[14:20] <sipior> jeroendv: sure, no trouble.
[14:20] <tuv> how do i insall hplip 3.11 on maverick?
[14:21] <cheryl> Hello holders of all linux wisdom!
[14:21] <cheryl> I am trying to create a backup dvd disc using Brasero 'n got an error saying cd drive is unmounted. HELP please. :)
[14:22] <^NiNjA> is the error during the process itself or on brasero start up
[14:23] <truepurple> rileyp: sacarlson1: Ok, I have completely transfered over to my now functioning ubuntu desktop. Two questions, what reason should I recreate that file? I didn't catch a answer to that. And, which ATI driver should I use?
[14:23] <robos> Is there a separate channel for ubuntu in a server environment?
[14:23] <liminal> hello
[14:23] <Pici> robos: Yes, #ubuntu-server
[14:23] <robos> ty
[14:23] <benzaldehyde> cheryl: mount /dev/scd0 /youchoose
[14:23] <liminal> is there a way to change the text colour of the grub2 splash output?
[14:23] <benzaldehyde> cheryl: scd0 or therabouts
[14:24] <cheryl> benzaldehyde, I choose what? I'm a big novice at all this!
[14:24] <sacarlson1> truepurple: I don't use ati so I'm not sure what is best driver, as it is working I would at least keep a record of what you now use before you break it again
[14:24] <kaolc> I'm having problem. Every time I connect an external drive or USB it does not automatically mount. Using Disk utility gives me Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:
[14:24] <cheryl> benzaldehyde: I choose what? I'm a big novice at all this!
[14:24] <kaolc> mount: according to mtab, /dev/sda1 is already mounted on /
[14:24] <kaolc> mount failed but using "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt" works nicely.. Why does it mount on / by default and how do I change it?
[14:24] <truepurple> sacarlson1: I don't know I am using any drivers, I certainly didn't install any, and I have no idea how to "keep a record"
[14:25] <^NiNjA> liminal,  There is a program allows u to do that
[14:25] <sacarlson1> truepurple: if you can run a desktop then you are using drivers already
[14:25] <^NiNjA> let me double check the name real quick
[14:25] <truepurple> I assume I am using what ever limited default drivers
[14:26] <sacarlson1> truepurple: if you can run compiz I guess I would leave it alone
[14:26] <benzaldehyde> cheryl: i think you just gave me an epiphany about my issues
[14:26] <truepurple> sacarlson1: So how do I find out what I am using now? And what do you mean by keeping a record?
[14:26] <sacarlson1> truepurple: as I said before sudo lshw
[14:26] <^NiNjA> ok yeah i use grub customizer
[14:27] <cheryl> benzaldehyde, Glad you're having epiphany's, but I'm still clueless! :(
[14:27] <^NiNjA> the PPA is on launchpad
[14:27] <^NiNjA> thats the easiest way without messing with the grub cfg by hand
[14:27] <tuv> how do i insall hplip 3.11 on maverick?
[14:27] <^NiNjA> least that i know of
[14:28] <^NiNjA> tuv,  go to hp website is how i got it
[14:28] <liminal> ^NiNjA, what program?
[14:28] <^NiNjA> its in a deb package
[14:28] <benzaldehyde> cheryl: if the device is mounted it most likely would be in /media/cdrom but if you can get to a terminal do sudo mount /dev/scd0 /mnt
[14:28] <tuv> ^NiNjA: they don't have a deb, just a source tarball
[14:28] <liminal> ^NiNjA, humm.. id rather recode the grub loader directly
[14:29] <^NiNjA> liminal,  grub customizer... its new and not all features work but its got alot that works well
[14:29] <Sik> Hi, I had managed to install Ubuntu yesterday, and it was working all fine (albeit without sound), but now it hangs after some time (like an hour or so) and I have absolutely no idea why. Also when I booted now it said /dev/null didn't exist o_o
[14:29] <^NiNjA> hmm ok, coulda swore mine was in deb
[14:30] <^NiNjA> anyhoo the instructions on their site are usually spot on
[14:30] <dios_mio> sik, you can creat ea new /dev/null ... there is a way... but you need to ask in expert rooms like #bash but dont tell them you use ubuntu, just ask them how to create a /dev/null
[14:30] <truepurple> sacarlson1: And what should I do with the info from sudo lshw? And I don't know about compiz, but there are definitely display problems I am having.
[14:30] <cheryl> benzaldehyde, I typed it 'n cursors just flashing now...is it doing somming?
[14:30] <Sik> dios_mio: it could be related to the hangs though, so I want to know what's up first
[14:31] <cheryl> benzaldehyde, I got "unknown device" :(
[14:31] <Shawn727> Yes
[14:31] <dios_mio> Sik, try this: sudo mknod /dev/null c 2 2
[14:31] <Shawn727> Cheryl
[14:31] <Shawn727> P.m. me
[14:31] <sacarlson1> truepurple: if you have problems with your hardware in the future post it so we can help you,  it also displays what you presently use as drivers for each component
[14:31] <Shawn727> I can help
[14:31] <Sik> dios_mio: ...now it says it exists! o_O
[14:31] <kaolc>  I'm having some problems. Every time I connect an external drive or USB it does not automatically mount. Using Disk utility gives me: "Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:
[14:31] <kaolc>  mount: according to mtab, /dev/sda1 is already mounted on /  mount failed" -  but using "sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt" works nicely.. Why does it mount USBs on / by default and how do I change it?
[14:31] <llutz_> dios_mio: sudo mknod /dev/null c 1 3
[14:32] <Sik> But I mean in the text that appears when it's booting, before Ubuntu starts
[14:32] <sacarlson1> truepurple: so if you break it you know what to move back to get it working again as you have now
[14:32] <^NiNjA> liminal,  well i am not well versed enuff with grub gfg. to help u there
[14:32] <benzaldehyde> cheryl do cd /dev | ls
[14:32] <cheryl> Shawn727, I gotcha now.
[14:32] <kawohi_> hey guys, anybody know how to fix this http://i.imgur.com/35VQ9.png
[14:32] <cheryl> benzaldehyde, Shawn is in pm helping me thanks. :)
[14:32] <benzaldehyde> cheryl: okay good i have to reboot
[14:33] <SikEnCide> kawohi: insert the CD ?
[14:33] <kawohi_> ugh.
[14:33] <SikEnCide> kawohi or remove the CD from your sources
[14:33] <d3vic3> kawohi: update or set your repositories sources
[14:33] <kawohi_> why does it want me to do that? I thought the CD was only for installing?
[14:34] <sacarlson1> kawohi_ it is telling you to insert the cd you installed with so it can get what it needs.  if you no longer have the disk then take the cd off your repository list so it gets the file from the net
[14:34] <SikEnCide> kawohi you have the CD set as a source for the repositories so it checks it for changes
[14:34] <liminal> ^NiNjA, im looking at the grub customizer webpage... doesnt say if it can do what i need
[14:35] <kawohi_> Where can I go to change it? /..I just installed ubuntu the other day
[14:35] <truepurple> sacarlson1: I sent you a PM
[14:35] <kawohi_> for the first time.
[14:35] <d3vic3> kawohi, SikEnCide: yep, comment the line "deb cdrom:..." in /etc/apt/sources.list
[14:35] <tuv> ^NiNjA: http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/install/install/index.html step 10: ./configure; make
[14:35] <d3vic3> kawohi: don't forget to run "sudo apt-get update" after that ;)
[14:36] <kawohi_> oh everything is updated.
[14:36] <kawohi_> Im just trying to install wine
[14:36] <cheryl> Is it common place to be asked to pay for help here?? It's new to me!
[14:36] <magpiie> everytime i try to play you tube vides or any google videos, i kep getting "sorry, an error occured" message
[14:36] <Pici> cheryl: No.
[14:36] <^NiNjA> tuv,  yeah that looks familiar
[14:36] <d3vic3> cheryl: nop, it's all for free..
[14:36] <magpiie> i have updated my repository and still no change
[14:36] <^NiNjA> pretty sure its what i did
[14:37] <cheryl> Someone should tell Shawn727  that!!!
[14:37] <SikEnCide> magentar: do you have flash installed ?
[14:37] <^NiNjA> that will setup the base hip driver and such
[14:37] <satvikc> PATH = $PATH:/home/myname
[14:37] <Pici> cheryl: thanks for letting us know.
[14:37] <satvikc> whats wrong in that command
[14:37] <SikEnCide> magpiie: do you have flash installed ?
[14:37] <^NiNjA> for the toolkit and anything else u will need to grab that from ubuntu software center or synaptic
[14:37] <satvikc> it gives PATH: command not found
[14:38] <llutz_> satvikc: no spaces around =
[14:38] <Pici> Shawn727: May I pm?
[14:38] <magpiie> it worked fine this morning, but now it just refuses to play online content
[14:38] <cheryl> Right, since benz' had to reboot, can anyone help me mount my dvd drive plse?
[14:38] <SikEnCide> magpiie any recent updates ?
[14:38] <magpiie> where can i find latest flash for ubuntu?
[14:38] <d3vic3> satvikc: export PATH
[14:38] <d3vic3> after defining it :)
[14:39] <d3vic3> stavikc: export PATH=$PATH;/home/myname
[14:39] <rileyp> truepurple,  are you ther?
[14:39] <shultz> Привет всем
[14:39] <truepurple> rileyp: Yes

[14:42] <GOMI> i got it from this website :   http://www.arsgeek.com/2008/01/15/how-to-fix-your-windows-mbr-with-an-ubuntu-livecd/
[14:42] <ruan> magpiie: you can install flash without av software, anyway, why are you running av software
[14:42] <cheryl> Pici, He's helping me for free now. :)
[14:42] <ruan> magpiie: even if it's running, you can still install flash
[14:42] <kawohi_> don't even install flash. download chrome instead :)
[14:42] <SikEnCide> kawohi try          gksu gedit "file"
[14:42] <Pici> cheryl: thanks for the update.
[14:43] <siddhantchd> hey guys would like to know if there is a software like internet download manager that supports segmented download
[14:43] <Sik> So, does anybody know what could be causing Ubuntu to outright hang without any kind of hints? Or what could I look into? I just installed it a day ago :|
[14:43] <magpiie> the adobe link wont let me choose the operating system box, its greyed out and underneeth its telling me i may need to disable antivirus
[14:44] <magpiie> i know theres the firewall, but not too sure about antivirus as i was told i dont really need one
[14:44] <ruan> magpiie: you don't have one running
[14:44] <ruan> magpiie: i'll give you an APT link to adobe flash

[14:46] <GOMI> i got my harddisk in an external box with xp on it , is it possible to fix it with my ubuntu ? it sees de hd as data so i can get in and check around ?????
[14:46] <rileyp> siddhantchd, are you after a torrent downloader for linux
[14:46] <SikEnCide> kawohi Gnome Do has one. or tyr Cairo Dock
[14:46] <GOMI> the websites i see is about livecd ?
[14:47] <kawohi_> OK thanks ill take a look at it.
[14:47] <GOMI> docky is better
[14:47] <kawohi_> But it doesn't minimize the windows on it
[14:47] <SikEnCide> GOMI its all a matter of opinion
[14:47] <xiong> GOMI, You don't want to wipe the drive and install Ubuntu from scratch?
[14:48] <GOMI> you'r right sikencide
[14:48] <ruan> SikEnCide: segmented download?
[14:48] <kawohi_> I like docky, except for that one missing future
[14:48] <GOMI> no xiong ...
[14:48] <Flizzer> Hi ! I have a problem when adding a file "lang" in the isolinux of my LiveCD ; it does not boot anymore
[14:48] <GOMI> i want to fix the MBR
[14:48] <ruan> SikEnCide: ah ik what you mean
[14:48] <SikEnCide> ruan you having problems with d/ling apps quickly from the repos ?
[14:48] <ruan> SikEnCide: nope, no probs here
[14:49] <ruan> SikEnCide: i had one problem a few weeks ago, just switched the mirror
[14:49] <GOMI> livecd doesnt work on it , so i plugged it in , and its a harddisk data that i can go trough
[14:49] <kawohi_> I can
[14:49] <kawohi_> I can't wait till I install NodeJS ! haha
[14:50] <magpiie> SikEnCide new problem with flash installer, when software centre opens up after download, i get this "Conflicts with the installed package 'flashplugin-installer'
[14:50] <ruan> magpiie: remove flashplugin-installer
[14:52] <xiong> kawohi, Um, educate me. What does Docky do? (That's not a pun.) I mean, I can see its description but what does this add to your user experience?
[14:53] <SikEnCide> magpiie remve the flashplugin first
[14:53] <ruan> SikEnCide: system > administration > software sources > download from.. click other, choose best server for me
[14:53] <rileyp> gomi if you xp mbr is corrupted normal fix method is to use xp cd and go to a command prompt and type fixmbr or fixboot
[14:53] <ruan> SikEnCide: after that, try and see if your DL speed improves
[14:53] <cheryl> Pici, He's a pain in the butt nagging for money again, think I'll give him a miss!!
[14:54] <SikEnCide> ruan... my download speeds have always been fine ?
[14:54] <magpiie> i have removed the plugin through synaptic, installed the version via the link you gave me, and now its working fine, thanks for the help, now i know what to do for next time
[14:54] <cheryl> Right, could anyone not expecting payment help me with media mounting please??
[14:54] <SikEnCide> ruan i thought you were having bad speeds which is why you wanted something to get them in segments
[14:54] <magpiie> really apreciated
[14:54] <GOMI> yes i  done that , it repairs something but still its not booting normal .
[14:55] <siddhantchd> rileyp nope direct donwloads from a server
[14:55] <SikEnCide> cheryl no one here should be.
[14:55] <kawohi_> Should I install WIne Beta or the stable version?
[14:55] <SikEnCide> expecting payment that is
[14:55] <red2kic> !info aria2 | siddhantchd
[14:55] <SikEnCide> kawohi what will you be using it for ?
[14:55] <sipior> cheryl: this is one of the motivations for not conducting channel business via PM :-)
[14:55] <rileyp> a ftp server?
[14:55] <cheryl> SikEnCide, Someone should tell Shawn727 that!!!
[14:56] <sipior> cheryl: state your question to the channel, lots of folks here to help.
[14:56] <cheryl> sipior, Thanks for the headsup!
[14:56] <kawohi_> Well I want to try and get MSN to work on it.
[14:56] <cheryl> I apparently need to mount my dvd drive, I have no clue how to do this....
[14:56] <siddhantchd> any other than aria2 ,it doesnt support segmented download
[14:56] <siddhantchd> and is not that fast as any other like download them all

[14:57] <kawohi_> so stable or beta?
[14:57] <siddhantchd> anyone?
[14:57] <waynerr> ubuntu 10.10 is stable afaik ?
[14:57] <SikEnCide> kawohi: by msn you mean msn messenger ? try Pidgin. or whatever they put in the newest release I dont remember what it is
[14:58] <rileyp> not me I use torrents :D
[14:58] <red2kic> siddhantchd: It does not support segmented download? Say who? You?
[14:58] <kawohi_> I would except... well.... /my wife likes to play the games on it '______'
[14:58] <compdoc> 10.10 is stable
[14:58] <GOMI> or amsn if you used to msn layout and stuff
[14:58] <siddhantchd> red2kic oki then i will try
[14:58] <kawohi_> SO I'm trying to install messenger
[14:58] <rileyp> waynerr,  It should be haw are you killing it?
[14:58] <SikEnCide> kawohi: either way go with stable version
[14:59] <Sik> Does anybody know what can cause Ubuntu to hang after an hour or so of running? Still googling but couldn't find anything yet :|
[14:59] <waynerr> rileyp, i just do normal multitasking i done before
[14:59] <dr0id> locate abcd will also search for directories, no ?
[14:59] <waynerr> video on one monitor, firefox, virtualbox, pidgin, xchat
[14:59] <red2kic> Sik: Run "htop" or view Gnome System Monitor. It should report high CPU/MEM usage.
[14:59] <cheryl> Would someone please help me mount my dvd drive?
[14:59] <GOMI> Sik , found out what you do at those moments (any programs runnging)
[14:59] <rileyp> I know plenty that use maverick but Im a lucid boy for now
[15:00] <llutz_> cheryl: what drive, to do what?
[15:00] <waynerr> i done nothing in virtualbox, only thing i see in dmesg/messages that looks "wrong": hda-intel: IRQ timing workaround is activated for card #2. Suggest a bigger bdl_pos_adj
[15:00] <SikEnCide> sik: 1. you took my name....   but have you checked any of hte log files ?
[15:00] <Sik> GOMI: in all cases I was doing different things
[15:00] <ruan> what is the default 'back' key on firefox 4 and how do i change it
[15:00] <Necrocyber> hey anyone
[15:00] <ruan> backspace isnt working
[15:00] <Sik> SikEnCide: 1) I go by this name since like 2005 and 2) logs show NOTHING :|
[15:00] <red2kic> ruan: ALT+Left
[15:00] <Necrocyber> somebody here have a notebook xps Dell
[15:00] <cheryl> llutz: I want to make a data backup to my dvd r/w and it's not seeing it as mounted.
[15:00] <Sik> Though there are lots of logs, what logs should I be looking into?
[15:00] <Necrocyber> ???
[15:01] <llutz_> cheryl: you don't mount a dvd to write
[15:01] <red2kic> ruan: "about:config" -- Search "backspace" -- Change a number.
[15:01] <kawohi_> Has anybody tried to crack wireless points on Ubuntu in here?
[15:01] <rileyp> They use for mythtv so it must be solid perhap you have bad ram or capacitors linux does not make random crash operating systems
[15:01] <red2kic> Necrocyber: Dell XPS M1530
[15:01] <SikEnCide> kawohi backtrack runs on ubuntu now
[15:01] <waynerr> kawohi, just use metasploit about the same os
[15:01] <Sik> I found this which seems similar to my issue http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1636762 ...except because I don't have any wireless modem :/
[15:01] <cheryl> llutz: No but you mount the drive 2 be seen by the system don't you?
[15:01] <waynerr> kawohi, what SikEnCide said :D
[15:01] <llutz_> cheryl: how do you backup?
 -  I never tried that, but if one day i try get that i use a aircrack
[15:02] <ruan> red2kic: thanks. 0 worked
[15:02] <kawohi_> Ive downloaded backtrack 4 before. what do you mean?
[15:02] <cheryl> llutz: I haven't up to now, not on this pc....
[15:02] <red2kic> ruan: No problem.
[15:02] <waynerr> kawohi, backtrack has all tools with it and is debian based so you should feel comfortable with it
[15:02] <llutz_> cheryl: _how_ do you backup? what program are oyu using?
[15:02] <Flizzer> Hi ! I have a problem when adding a file "lang" in the isolinux of my LiveCD ; it does not boot anymore
[15:02] <kawohi_> Oh ok. I got it.
[15:02] <cheryl> llutz: Brasero, comes with linux
[15:02] <rileyp> cheryll walk backwards for llutz
[15:02] <kawohi_> Aircrack! Ha! I was trying to remember what it was called
[15:03] <waynerr> pyrit is important to know, too if i remember right
[15:03] <waynerr> to crack wpa/wpa2 encprytions faster
[15:03] <llutz_> cheryl:it shouldn't need to mount a media before. just create a new data-dvd, burn, done
[15:05] <cheryl> llutz: Yeah worked b4 on another pc.....but if I try 'n access the drive from the "places" menu I get an error
[15:05] <rileyp> waynerr what your running is barely multitasking it should do it easy. Is it just x that is crashing can you ssh in?
[15:05] <EnginA> dd is very straight forward and very few chance to make mistakes. but I need speed now, what is a _partition_ imaging tool that would understand ntfs and copy only necessary things and compress on the fly ?
[15:05] <llutz_> cheryl: accessing a media is something different than burning it using brasero. so what are you doing exactly and what error do you get?
[15:05] <kawohi_> DO I need to update the kernel on 10.10
[15:05] <searching> after instaled a server reboot apear on the screen GRUB and nothing no login
[15:06] <waynerr> rileyp, i tried to alt-f1 to another console then terminal 7
[15:06] <kawohi_> ?
[15:06] <Avasz> kawohi_, maybe its not good to talk about cracking and hacking here.... ( not too sure)
[15:06] <Frekk> Hi! I'm trying to use the tool RTMPDUMP to download a stream from this website: http://stortinget.no/no/Hva-skjer-pa-Stortinget/Videoarkiv/Arkiv-TV-sendinger/?mbid=/2011/H264-full/Storting/04/04/stortinget-20110404-115458_del1.mp4
[15:06] <waynerr> rileyp, but not even the mouse moved any longer
[15:06] <EnginA> ok forget about ntfs, but it should understand zero blocks and compress them to hell :)
[15:06] <Frekk> I have tried for almost an hour now, and would really appreciate some help
[15:06] <waynerr> rileyp, i have then just hardreset the machine
[15:06] <ruan> kawohi_: you don't need to, but it is advised to update
[15:06] <Flizzer> Hi ! I have a problem when adding a file "lang" in the isolinux of my LiveCD ; it does not boot anymore
[15:06] <waynerr> the same system btw ran windows xp / windows 7 x64 for years without problems like that
[15:06] <kawohi_> HOw do I?
[15:06] <Necrocyber>  somebody here have a notebook XPS Dell 14
[15:06] <Necrocyber> ??/
[15:06] <ruan> kawohi_: using update manager
[15:07] <Frekk> no matter what arguments I try I only get an error "recieved FLV packet before play"
[15:07] <waynerr> so mainly i think it has todo with crappy drivers in linux
[15:07] <cheryl> llutz, it'll only let me create image files 'n not burn the selected files to disc.
[15:07] <kawohi_> Thanks for being helpful guys. I really appreciate it.
[15:07] <red2kic> Necrocyber: What are you trying to do?
[15:07] <Frekk> Do any of you guys know the correct command to download the RMTP-stream on the given website? :)
[15:07] <siddhantchd> ???
[15:08] <Frekk> *RTMP
[15:08] <kawohi_> "There are no updates to install" so I guess everythings updated eh?
[15:08] <rileyp> EnginA,  I use clonezilla but not sure if it can compress
[15:08] <cheryl> llutz: it's not recognising there's a blank dvd in the drive.
[15:08] <Paddy_NI> Frekk: Is it available via Miro?
[15:08] <waynerr> another quite funny problem is that everytime after a reset of the system sound is set to loud while the volumebar remembers the setting from the last time
[15:08] <crashus> hey can anyone help? I cant dualboot latest ubuntu with windows 7
[15:08] <crashus> pls pm me
[15:08] <llutz_> cheryl: either you  dpn't have apropriate permissions for the burning-device, or the media is broken
[15:09] <Frekk> Paddy_NI: not as far as I know?
[15:09] <waynerr> childish problems for an os in the year 2011 if you ask me
[15:09] <Paddy_NI> Frekk: If you use banshee Miro Guide is also an option
 lol, that is fine too, i have a Xps 14 Dell and i try install some functions of my frontal painel but i don't get
[15:09] <Paddy_NI> Frekk: what site/stream?
[15:09] <red2kic> Year 2011 -- That mean nothing.
[15:09] <cheryl> llutz, I think I've solved the problem, this pc only has a DVD rom in it! I no longer have a rewriter :(
[15:10] <llutz_> cheryl: say you're kidding?
[15:10] <Paddy_NI> waynerr: yeah I know.. its 2011.. we have flying cars and everything :)

[15:10] <delinquentme> OK! so i've got my nice little hard drives hooked up .. and they're READABLE !!! ... so now what do i need to do to them .. so that my system actually boots up :D
[15:10] <rileyp> I tried maverick and couldnt get my remote working so stuck with lucid The beauty of a 320gig drive and only using 10 gig a partition for o/s just create another and play on....with a

[15:10] <Paddy_NI> hmm
[15:10] <red2kic> Necrocyber: Use Fn button if you don't know what that is.
[15:10] <cheryl> llutz, Thanks 4 your help anyway. :)
[15:10] <crashus> installation in wubi stops at creating virtual disks, or if it passes thru i have a root filesystem error later. If I try to boot from usb/cd, i cant manualy set the partitions, and i would lose windows 7 and files
[15:10] <waynerr> Paddy_NI, i remember reading a maillist entry on the fedora buglist where linus torvald, some glibc programmers all rant together about the flash programmers, while in the end only linus solves the problem
[15:11] <Flizzer> Hi ! I have a problem when adding a file "lang" in the isolinux of my LiveCD ; it does not boot anymore !!
[15:11] <Frekk> Paddy_NI: I guess that's the stream, check source code line 376 and the next couple of lines
[15:11] <waynerr> the rest of these "Opensource Gurus" just sits there and says "flash have to fix it"
[15:11] <hiexpo> kawohi, you have synaptic open or software sources
[15:11] <aeon-ltd>  
[15:11] <kawohi_> oh alright
 how you get install the front painel?
[15:12] <waynerr> thats opensource world in the year 2011, no wonder my windows ran alot more stabile on desktop :/
[15:12] <Paddy_NI> waynerr: Have you fixed any bugs lately?
[15:12] <delinquentme> if i have a malfunctioning HD ( primay OS is ubuntu 10.04 ) ... and its currently slaved up to my laptop .. is it as easy to repair it as sticking in a bootable ubuntu disk .. and telling it to repair drive E?
[15:12] <sipior> waynerr: this sort of discussion is off-topic here.
[15:12] <red2kic> waynerr: Steve Jobs hate Flash too. http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ Your argument is invalid.
[15:12] <crashus> can anyone halp me with dualbooting win 7 and ubuntu? pls PM me
[15:12] <waynerr> Paddy_NI, yeah but not on ubuntu, i rather keep my small projects in nagios and openfiler ;)
[15:12] <rileyp> crashes what install disk are you using a amaverick one?
[15:13] <crashus> wubi installer
[15:13] <crashus> or iso from ubuntu.com
[15:13] <crashus> than live usb
[15:13] <Paddy_NI> Frekk: That stream works here
[15:14] <Frekk> Paddy_NI: tell me more! :D
[15:14] <Paddy_NI> Frekk: All I did was add "rtmp://sndp.stortinget.no/file/2011/H264-full/Storting/04/04/stortinget-20110404-115458.mp4" to gnome-mplayer
[15:14] <Frekk> Paddy_NI: ok, thing is. I have an Ubuntu-server I would like to download this stream to. So I would really like a CLI-way to capture the stream
[15:15] <rileyp> crashus, so you have xp or 7 running and have attempted to install buntu using wubi which can resize your partions etc and its going all sad after the partioning bit?
[15:15] <Paddy_NI> ah
[15:15] <Paddy_NI> sorry
[15:15] <Paddy_NI> Frekk: wget?
[15:15] <Frekk> wget does not support RTMP
[15:16] <crashus> no- i´m using windows 7. i made partitions for ubuntu already. if i try instaling it in windows thru wubi, I can choose the correct partitions and start instalation, but I either get stuck at creating virtual disks, or get a root filesistem not set error later
[15:16] <Paddy_NI> hmm.. Frekk try it with http instead of rtmp
[15:16] <crashus> if I boot from usb or cd, I can only choose the entire disk for installation and would lose win 7 and all files
[15:16] <Frekk> Paddy_NI: 404 :)
[15:16] <red2kic> Necrocyber: You have this? http://tinyurl.com/3augjkw
[15:17] <Paddy_NI> gah
[15:17] <crashus> if i try manually set partitions, they are not there
[15:17] <dziadu_> hello
[15:17] <Paddy_NI> Frekk: there has got to be a way.. sec.. google
 yes
[15:17] <dziadu_> one I was trying to install my own kernel from sources
[15:17] <Sik> crashus: sudo fdisk -l in the terminal (LiveCD/USB) and see what comes out?
[15:17] <Frekk> Paddy_NI: this thing has been bothering me for an hour. Any help would be deeply appreciated :)
[15:17] <dziadu_> after some time I back to standard ubuntu kernel
[15:17] <waynerr> crashus, what kind of partitions did you create for ubuntu ?
[15:17] <red2kic> Necrocyber: Do you see left Ctrl? What is next to it? Fn, right?
[15:17] <Sik> I had that same issue and it was that the installer had broken the partition table (sda3 got into sda2, which shouldn't be possible)
[15:17] <crashus> ext3
[15:17] <crashus> swap
[15:18] <waynerr> ok wanted to make sure they arent ntfs
[15:18] <Necrocyber> i have the left and right ctrl
[15:18] <Necrocyber> and func too
[15:18] <Frekk> Paddy_NI: norwegian, btw?
[15:18] <Necrocyber> i don´t know more what i can made for that work
[15:18] <red2kic> Necrocyber: Hold FN and press any of those orange buttons, or any buttons in first row.
[15:18] <dziadu_> but now, when I try to install nvidia-current, dkms tries to compile module agains old (my) kernel, whicg doesn't exists anymore (i removed it from /boot /lib/modules and /usr/src)
[15:18] <Paddy_NI> Frekk: If you can bare with me that would be cool.. trying to do a couple of things at once while watching this channel
[15:18] <Paddy_NI> Frekk: Northern Ireland
[15:18] <CodeZombie> doesn't ubuntu's PHP5 have CURLOPT_PROXY disabled by default?
[15:18] <Frekk> Paddy_NI: sure
[15:18] <Paddy_NI> :0
[15:18] <Paddy_NI> :)

[15:27] <swatto> so is there no way to create a shorcut that works similar to windows with a launcher
[15:27] <red2kic> chrissssssssssss: Make a backup. I don't care how you do it. Backups are always important.

[15:28] <red2kic> chrissssssssssss: Do you use seahorse?
[15:28] <zagibu> your gpg key should be tatooed on the inside of your eyelids anyway
[15:29] <sipior> zagibu: that could make key revocation an uncomfortable process...

[15:29] <chrissssssssssss> red2kic: terminal

[15:30] <sacarlson> chrissssssssssss:  I'm not sure but they might keep them in your /home/user/.gnupg  directory
[15:30] <sipior> Cyclopse: see the "-o" switch of your compiler.
[15:30] <zagibu> sipior: well, plastic surgery is getting cheaper and cheaper, and most ppl have enough spare skin

[15:32] <mattish> I want to authenticate my user accounts against a windows domain(AD) but dont want to actually make the machine part of the AD, is this possible ?
[15:32] <mattish> most of the simple apps require my machine joins the domain :(
[15:32] <red2kic> kawohi_: Append gksudo (if you're using graphical apps)
[15:33] <rileyp> swatto right click on desktop and create launcher
[15:33] <delinquentme> is there a list of software that ubuntu usually crawls through on boot ? like im trying to figure out where my computer is hanging .. its stopping at the motherboard splash screen
[15:33] <kawohi_> Alright and where is source.list at again?
[15:33] <meganerd> mattish: you want your login to authenticate against AD?  You could setup PAM-ldap and point it to a DC
[15:33] <d3vic3> kawohi_, red2kic: actually prepend gksu or gksudo ;)
[15:33] <kawohi_> etc/...
[15:34] <jrib> delinquentme: check out bootchart?
[15:34] <mattish> thanks meganerd,  i will go look at the man pages for pam-ldap
[15:34] <red2kic> d3vic3: Heh.
[15:34] <wers> how do I get libxml 2.7.8 on Maverick? trying to build Nautilus 3 via jhbuild

[15:35] <delinquentme> jrib, im downloading it for my laptop .. but i cant get to GRUB let alone a login screen
[15:35] <jrib> delinquentme: well if you can't get to grub, that's a different issue
[15:35] <Magnusson> can someone tell me how to clean up my grub menu in 10.10? i have some entries i'd like to remove
[15:35] <jrib> delinquentme: have you reinstalled grub?
[15:35] <delinquentme> jrib, nope!
[15:35] <jrib> !grub2 | delinquentme
[15:35] <delinquentme> i have a live CD .. and i've verified that the HD's read
[15:36] <kawohi_> I entered sudo apt-get build essentials  and nothing is happening. tried to close terminal and it says process is running. should I wait
[15:37] <meganerd> kawohi_: apt-get install build-essentials
[15:37] <Pici> meganerd: Its build-essential , no s
[15:37] <eros> what is it
[15:38] <kawohi_> Oh Okay. sorry I haven't gone to bed yet and its 11am "______"
[15:38] <delinquentme> jrib, so its saying use the live Cd .. now i tried this yesterday .. and after going into the BIOS .. and disabling all other bootup devices , leaving only the CD rom drive .. it still hung at the same spot .. right at the motherboard splash screen
[15:38] <vanguard> how do I get rid of lintians 'script-with-language-extension' without renaming the script in the sources?
[15:38] <kawohi_> finally!
[15:38] <kawohi_> whattt
[15:39] <kawohi_> lj@lj:~$ sudo apt-get install build-essentials [sudo] password for lj:  Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree        Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package build-essentials
[15:39] <Pici> kawohi_: Its Its build-essential , no s
[15:39] <kawohi_> Ohhh
[15:39] <kawohi_> Thanks
[15:39] <Pici> vanguard: Thats probalby a better question for #ubuntu-packaging, or maybe #ubuntu-app-devel
[15:39] <vanguard> Pici: thx
[15:40] <vanguard> how I get rid of the "xy joined" messages in empathy? I have no space for the actual messages any more :-/
[15:41] <kawohi_> alright. build essentials are in, all updates are done. anything else I should do?
[15:41] <ajf> on ubuntu server
[15:41] <ajf> new user account
[15:41] <ajf> I get this error trying to change password:
[15:41] <ajf> passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
[15:42] <ikonia> ajf: how did you create the user ?
[15:42] <ajf> I used useradd
[15:42] <ajf> then added it to the sudo group
[15:42] <ikonia> ajf: can you show me the exact command you used
[15:42] <ikonia> ajf: what sudo group ? please give me the exact commands you used
[15:42] <ajf> and edited /etc/passwd to give it the bash shell
[15:42] <red2kic> vanguard: Use something else. I'm not even sure if empathy are polished for IRC channels by now.
[15:43] <ajf> ikonia: I don't know. I can give you the /etc/passwd line
[15:43] <red2kic> vanguard: Xchat is great.
[15:43] <ikonia> ajf: it sounds like you have made a really big mess of a simple task of adding a user
[15:43] <ajf> yeah...
[15:43] <vanguard> red2kir: I guess I go back to Konversation, that was plain great. But I was trying empathy since it is default
[15:43] <ikonia> ajf: show me the useradd command you used
[15:43] <red2kic> vanguard: empathy is nice for IM, but not for IRC, imo.
[15:44] <ajf> uh
[15:44] <ajf> useradd ajf
[15:44] <ajf> passwd ajf
[15:44] <ikonia> ajf: ok, what group did you add it to ?
[15:44] <vanguard> red2kic: empathy does not even have name-tab-completion. no-go :D
[15:44] <ajf> er
[15:44] <ajf> I did
[15:44] <red2kic> vanguard: Try xchat. :)
[15:44] <ajf> usermod -a G sudo ajf
[15:44] <ajf> should I have done sudoers?
[15:44] <ikonia> ajf: ok, that isn't a valid group
[15:44] <vanguard> red2kic: I go with Konversation, I used that with KDE and loved it
[15:44] <ikonia> ajf: is there anything in the users home directory ?
[15:44] <llutz_> ajf admin         is the group
[15:44] <ajah> is there a program witch can force the mouse not escape from window
[15:45] <ajf> llutz: OK. Thanks
[15:45] <delinquentme> waiiiittt a minute.. if I tell my BIOS .. to not boot from anything but the CD rom drive .. and it still hangs at the motherboard splash screen .. does that mean my mobo is fried?
[15:45] <red2kic> ajf: For synergy?
[15:45] <delinquentme> and shouldn't the live CD be activated BEFORE grub ( on a normal working system with a live CD in the tray ) ?
[15:45] <red2kic> ajah: See above.
[15:45] <ikonia> ajf: is the users home directory empty ?
[15:45] <ajf> ikonia: no
[15:45] <ajf> It's /home/ajf
[15:46] <ajf> and has some config stuff in there
[15:46] <ikonia> ajf: are you logged in as that user now ?
[15:46] <ajf> yes
[15:46] <ajf> well I'm in su in that user
[15:46] <ikonia> ajf: please login as a different user and I can help you fix this
[15:46] <Jonta> !firefox
[15:46] <ikonia> ajf: ok - drop out of that user
[15:46] <Jonta> !firefox4
[15:46] <ajah> red2kic, what should i see i don`t understand
[15:46] <ikonia> ajf: are you ready ?
[15:46] <Jonta> !latest
[15:46] <ajf> ikonia: I'm not sure I can, I'm in SSH and this is currently the only way I can access it
[15:46] <red2kic> ajah: You don't want it to go out of window. Is that for synergy?
[15:47] <ikonia> ajf: you said you "su" to that user, so you must be able to ssh in as a different user
[15:47] <ajf> ikonia: No.
[15:47] <ajf> I log in as ajf via public key
[15:47] <ikonia> ajf: then why did you just say you "su" to it
[15:47] <ajf> I mean I'm in su just now so I can use root
[15:47] <ikonia> ajf: you shouldn't be "in su" you should be using sudo
[15:48] <ikonia> ajf: you need to step away and learn how to manage an ubuntu system
[15:48] <ajf> I know I should use sudo
[15:48] <ajf> However
[15:48] <ajf> I broke something so I can't sudo at the moment
[15:48] <ikonia> ajf: it's clear you have little idea of what you are doing so, it concerns me that you'd "su"
[15:48] <ajah> red2kic, i don`t what is synergy i`ll check
[15:48] <ikonia> ajf: you won't be able to sudo as your arround is messed up
[15:48] <ajah> red2kic, *know
[15:48] <ajf> ikonia: My what?
[15:49] <ikonia> ajf: if you are root do "usermod -G admin ajf"
[15:49] <insanity99> hey guys, whats the best NES emulator?
[15:49] <ajf> ikonia: Thanks.
[15:50] <red2kic> ajah: What is it that you are trying to do? Details.
[15:50] <r0hit> insanity99, fceux imho
[15:50] <delinquentme> Ummm i can mount a HD thats on an external drive right?
[15:50] <ajf> ikonia: I am aware that using su is a stupid idesa
[15:50] <red2kic> delinquentme: Yes.
[15:50] <delinquentme> if i wanted to do all this grubness to it .. it should be accessable that way
[15:50] <ikonia> ajf: you log out and re-login back as ajf and you should be able to use sudo, however we then need to create a temporary account for you to use while we fix your current one
[15:50] <ajf> But I didn't want to SSH to the VPS's serial console
[15:51] <insanity99> r0hit, i have that install apparently, but where is it?
[15:51] <r0hit> insanity99, tried looking under /usr/games ?
[15:52] <ajah> red2kic, i running windows game in windowed mode using wine but cursor go out the window so i`m looking for mouse grabber ( locker)
[15:52] <ajf> ikonia: Could you explain exactly what I did wrong?
[15:52] <meganerd> ajah: is that not an option within wine itself?
[15:52] <ikonia> ajf: a.) useradd - you can set everything you wanted to do with that one command b.) adding the user to the "sudo" group, wrong group, c.) setting the shell in /etc/passwd - you should have set it when you created the user with useradd
[15:53] <insanity99> r0hit, oh there it is
[15:53] <Paddy_NI> ajf: there is an option in wine config for that
[15:53] <insanity99> but how do i use it? double click doesn't work
[15:53] <Paddy_NI> ajf: what did you mean when you say you broke sudo?
[15:53] <Flizzer> ikonia: pretty good analysis.
[15:53] <ajf> Paddy_NI: I never let the account have sudo in the first place
[15:53] <ajf> Which was silly
[15:53] <sipior> ikonia: easier for most folks to use adduser, instead of useradd.
[15:53] <llutz_> ajf: use "adduser" next time, its easier
[15:54] <Paddy_NI> well you said it ajf :P
[15:54] <ajf> llutz: Is it like a "wizard" or something?
[15:54] <ajah> meganerd well if there is my google skills  suck maybe u can help me
[15:54] <r0hit> insanity99, run it from the terminal, pass the ROM file as the argument..... or i think you'll be happier off using Gfceux , a neat GTK+ frontend
[15:54] <Flizzer> llutz_: are you confident with isolinux?
[15:54] <llutz_> ajf: kinda, just a script doing the right steps
[15:54] <ajf> llutz: Right, OK
[15:54] <Paddy_NI> ajf: as for wine, go check out the configuration dialogue in your applications menu
[15:54] <llutz_> Flizzer: not at all
[15:54] <ajf> I never asked a wine question
[15:54] <meganerd> ajah: I can try, it has been a while since I have gamed with winie
[15:54] <ajf> Check you logs
[15:54] <meganerd> erm wine
[15:55] <rage> I'm `tail -F`ing a file. Does anyone know a good way to fire a script off when a certain line is detected? grep unfortunately doesn't work when following a file.
[15:55] <Paddy_NI> ajf: mouse cursor not leaving window?
[15:55] <Flizzer> llutz_: np :[
[15:55] <Flizzer> ikonia: are you confident with isolinux? /D
[15:55] <ajf> ikonia: The shell isn't an issue, right? I know I should have done that with useradd.
[15:55] <ikonia> rage: great a while loop
[15:55] <red2kic> Paddy_NI: ajf or ajah? :)
[15:55] <ikonia> Flizzer: reasonably
[15:55] <ajf> However, how can I remove it from the sudo group?
[15:55] <ikonia> ajf: doing it the way you do, can make a problem
[15:55] <Paddy_NI> gah
[15:55] <Paddy_NI> typical
[15:55] <ajf> ikonia: What specifically?
[15:56] <dios_mio> rage, i bet if you ask in #bash you get a good answer
[15:56] <ikonia> ajf: usermod -G admin puts it into the admin group only - this will give you sudo access so you can tidy up later
[15:56] <r0hit> rage, pipe it into a loop and do read LINE in it... then you can do all your magic with $LINE
[15:56] <ajf> ikonia: I already did that
[15:56] <Flizzer> ikonia: I tried to put a file "lang" in isolinux/ of my LiveCD but since this file is here, the liveCD refuses to boot and displays my language :(
[15:56] <rage> r0hit: Derp! Of course
[15:56] <ikonia> ajf: if you set it wrong/put the wrong path in/mess one of the ":" markers, it will break it
[15:56] <erUSUL> rage: while read -r line; do if [[ $line = *somestring* ]]; then script; fi; done < <(tail -f /some/log/)
[15:56] <insanity99> r0hit, where can i find that? not on software centre
[15:56] <ikonia> ajf: then your users is no longer in the sudo group
[15:56] <rage> r0hit: Thanks heaps :-)
[15:56] <ajf> ikonia: I now get: ajf is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.
[15:56] <SuperLag> I've got a desktop machine with an integrated Ethernet card. I'd like to add either another NIC or wifi card. How would I share the wired connection over the new NIC?
[15:56] <ikonia> Flizzer: I've never messed with langauges to be honest as my native language is English, I don't normally change,
[15:56] <rage> erUSUL: Exactly. Thanks both
[15:57] <ikonia> ajf: what is the output of the "id" command
[15:57] <ajf> ikonia: uid=1000(ajf) gid=1000(ajf) groups=114(admin),1000(ajf)
[15:57] <Flizzer> ikonia: ok but it's weird that this file messes up all the LiveCD
[15:57] <r0hit> rage you're welcome :)
[15:57] <red2kic> !ics | SuperLag
[15:57] <ikonia> Flizzer: can you explain what you did/changed, and lets see if we can work it out
[15:57] <ikonia> ajf: have you altered your sudoers file ?
[15:57] <Flizzer> ikonia: I put a file "lang" containing "fr" in the folder isolinux/ of the LiveCD
[15:58] <Flizzer> only this
[15:58] <ikonia> Flizzer: that shouldn't stop it booting !
[15:58] <ajf> ikonia: No, I don't know how to do that. Should I consult the man page or something?
[15:58] <ikonia> Flizzer: very odd
[15:58] <red2kic> !info bridge-utils | SuperLag
[15:58] <ikonia> ajf: is this a VPS ?

[15:58] <Flizzer> ikonia: if I remove it, it works again..

[15:59] <FloodBot3> ajf: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:59] <ikonia> ajf: it's a modified ubuntu distro by your vendor,
[15:59] <ikonia> ajf: yes, I get that, however your vendor has modified it
[15:59] <cartjobs> hello, is mysql still free?
[15:59] <ikonia> cartjobs: yes
[15:59] <ajf> ikonia: OK.
[15:59] <cartjobs> thanks
[16:00] <r0hit> insanity99, its there in lucid lynx's repository... try downloading it manually
[16:00] <ajf> ikonia: Does this mean anything in particular I should worry about?
[16:00] <insanity99> oh i see thanks
[16:00] <meganerd> ajf: it means that it is non-stnadard and there may be other things that they have changed.
[16:00] <ben42> hello, how do i get emacs23 working as a gnuserv on maverick (fresh install) for now, each new opening create a new emacs
[16:00] <ikonia> ajf: it means what is "normal" for ubuntu may or may not apply, I can't really support it as I don't know what your vendor has done
[16:01] <jack_id> Hi all :)
[16:01] <ajf> ikonia: OK.
[16:01] <ikonia> ajf: could you pastebin your sudoers file please
[16:01] <ruan> cartjobs: it is free.
[16:01] <cartjobs> thanks
[16:01] <Wobs> goood afternoon/evening
[16:02] <ajf> ikonia: even better, I copied it to my htdocs directory:
[16:02] <ajf> http://ajf.me/stuff/sudoers.txt
[16:02] <truepurple> What video card drivers would you guys recommend for a radeon 6850?
[16:02] <ajf> Well not even better, but it's quicker
[16:02] <h4xx0r> lol
[16:02] <h4xx0r> ubuntu has the same drivers for all sorts of cards
[16:03] <ikonia> ajf: thats a totally non-standard ubuntu install, nothing like the ubuntu one
[16:03] <h4xx0r> so I dont think any recommendation will be necessary.
[16:03] <meganerd> truepurple: the built in radeon driver?
[16:03] <ajf> ikonia: oh dear
[16:03] <ikonia> ajf: even the groups are different (sudo group is the right group for you, not admin)
[16:03] <h4xx0r> yea
[16:03] <truepurple> h4xx0r: meganerd: Default driver is not cutting it
[16:03] <h4xx0r> @meganerd: yes. Ubuntu detects ur graphic card and automatically downloads the drivers from its archives if it does not exist on ur system.
[16:03] <h4xx0r> lol
[16:03] <meganerd> truepurple: can you be more specific?
[16:04] <h4xx0r> you are looking for ATI Drivers rite?
[16:04] <h4xx0r> For Radeon Cards?
[16:04] <meganerd> h4xx0r: there are a couple of different drivers that will work with that hardware
[16:04] <danub> ok, i have asked this question about 4 times already and i keep forgetting the damn answer so this time im going to write it down as i do it. I have 6 startup entries in grub for 3 different linux kernels. I want to remove the 2 old ones, and remove them from the grub list. how do i do that again?
[16:04] <ruan> danub: remove them with synaptic
[16:04] <ikonia> danub: open the package manager, find the packages, remove them
[16:04] <ruan> danub: linux-kernel-old ver
[16:04] <ajf> ikonia: Is there some way I could re-install the system with a "real" ubuntu install? Like wget a binary and execute it somehow?
[16:04] <ruan> danub: then, sudo update-grub
[16:04] <ikonia> ajf: no
[16:05] <ajf> ikonia: why?
[16:05] <h4xx0r> meganerd: well, I haven't really come accross such drivers ever since I have started using ubuntu, but still if you think my answer ain't no good, there are many geeks here
[16:05] <ajf> Oh wait, my network settings.
[16:05] <truepurple> meganerd: Well for one, I can't set resolutions higher then 800x600, another is my setting options for video are extremely limited, thirdly is a window resizing problem that may or may not be related to my video driver
[16:05] <h4xx0r> you can try googling tho.
[16:05] <danub> linux-kernel-ver. ok, i did the linux-headers-ver. ok. now im good to go :D
[16:05] <ikonia> ajf: because it's not possible
[16:05] <h4xx0r> not a pain.
[16:05] <meganerd> truepurple: is the driver loaded?  try "lsmod |grep radeon"
[16:06] <truepurple> h4xx0r: Yes radeon ATI 6850, and I found one on their website, but I found a different one elsewhere on a linux site
[16:06] <ajf> ikonia: Shame. What would you recommend I do then, with this install?
[16:06] <sipior> ajf: you had a user add problem, right? how about we just fix that, instead of overhauling your entire installation :-)
[16:06] <h4xx0r> I will only suggest that you use a driver that is present on both linux and ati websites
[16:06] <meganerd> truepurple: I would stay away from manually installing the fglrx driver
[16:06] <h4xx0r> it will offer much more stablitiy
[16:06] <ikonia> ajf: nothing, just use it
[16:07] <ikonia> sipior: because his whole installation effects his user
[16:07] <ikonia> sipior: that's whyt
[16:07] <sipior> ikonia: i'm sure we can manage.
[16:07] <danub> you sure its 'linux-kernel' and not 'linux-image'?
[16:07] <truepurple> meganerd: Why is that?
[16:07] <jrib> ajf: you can ask the people you pay what modifications were made
[16:07] <truepurple> meganerd: And what is fglrx?
[16:07] <ikonia> sipior: his user problem is already fixed
[16:07] <meganerd> truepurple: "system -> administration -> additional driver" is where I would look first
[16:07] <ajf> jrib: I will fire off an email to support.
[16:07] <sipior> ikonia: yay.
[16:07] <red2kic> danub: linux-image
[16:07] <meganerd> truepurple: it is the proprietary binary driver that you are getting from the ATI/AMD web site
[16:07] <truepurple> meganerd: How do I know those drivers are better then the ones that ATI offers?
[16:07] <Dzo> 746864
[16:07] <danub> ok
[16:07] <h4xx0r> I got a question here guys, can anyone tell me how I should install a software manually and not from the ubuntu package manager. I have it present in a tar.bz2 format
[16:08] <h4xx0r> anyone?
[16:08] <Flizzer> ikonia: confident with preseeding? :D
[16:08] <jrib> h4xx0r: what software?  You should always use the repositories whenever possible
[16:08] <geekbri> h4xx0r: i would imagine you follow the readme inside the tarball?
[16:08] <meganerd> truepurple: if you are getting anything else it is likely already installed (there is a 2d only driver called ati and the opensource radeon driver)
[16:08] <h4xx0r> its nmap security scanner.
[16:08] <ikonia> Flizzer: sorry what ?
[16:08] <h4xx0r> I was looking to using it.
[16:08] <erUSUL> h4xx0r: use the one from the repos
[16:08] <ajf> ikonia: I used that command you gave me before to change the primary group
[16:08] <h4xx0r> I however am stuck at ubuntu software center.
[16:08] <ajf> But changed it instead to sudo
[16:08] <ajf> Now ajf can sudo
[16:08] <ikonia> ajf: you need to change it back to sudo
[16:08] <ikonia> ajf: ahh, well done
[16:09] <geekbri> im pretty sure nmap is in the repositories?
[16:09] <bastidrazor> h4xx0r: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Maverick#Handling_.28Tar.2FGZip.29_and_.28Tar.2FBzip2.29_archives
[16:09] <Flizzer> ikonia: it's a way to prefill the answer of questions asked by the LiveCD (Localization, Partitioning, Networking, Users) !
[16:09] <meganerd> truepurple: I have been using nvida and ATI drivers for about 10 years.  Under Linux they tend to suck.  Plus it is a pain whenever you upgrade your kernel, which happens several times during a release's lifecycle
[16:09] <jrib> h4xx0r: can you elaborate on how you are "stuck"?
[16:09] <h4xx0r> has anyone else ever fallen into such a problem where ubuntu software center just wont download a package for a few mins (get stuck at 0b) and then instantly start downloading it
[16:09] <truepurple> meganerd: I entered "lsmod |grep radeon" and nothing happened.
[16:09] <ajf> ikonia: Problem before, I guess, was either: A) My password was set wrong (I am using SSH, no password login), or B) It needed to be the primary group
[16:09] <h4xx0r> I just did, go through it.
[16:09] <ikonia> ajf: both
[16:09] <meganerd> truepurple: can you try "sudo modprobe radeon"?  Does it give an error?
[16:09] <danub> h4xx0r: terminal -> 'sudo apt-get install nmap'
[16:09] <Dzo> 123123123123
[16:09] <ikonia> ajf: sorry, doesn't need to be primary group
[16:10] <danub> it will get it for you
[16:10] <ikonia> Flizzer: ah, I know what your talking about
[16:10] <h4xx0r> I'm stuck at downloading at terminal too :(
[16:10] <h4xx0r> does anyone know which ports does ubuntu use for downloading packages?
[16:10] <truepurple> meganerd: No error, no message at all except for asking for password
[16:10] <h4xx0r> so i can forward the ports
[16:10] <h4xx0r> if they are coming in way.
[16:10] <jrib> h4xx0r: you said it doesn't start immediately but eventually does.  Wouldn't that mean that you have installed the package now?
[16:10] <meganerd> truepurple: try the lsmod command again, and check the output from "dmesg"
[16:10] <ajf> ikonia: OK. Thanks for helping. I'll bear in mind now that I have a non-standard installation.
[16:11] <Dzo> Anyone from Balcan?
[16:11] <ikonia> ajf: if you are asking people for help in future make sure you tell them in advance it's non-standard
[16:11] <danub> if the download started and completed some of the download, its not a firewall/port issue
[16:11] <h4xx0r> no, i havent installed it yet.
[16:11] <h4xx0r> im talking about all sorts of packages
[16:11] <ikonia> Dzo: do you have an ubuntu question ?
[16:11] <h4xx0r> it happens from synaptic, terminal, ubuntu software center.
[16:11] <h4xx0r> :(
[16:11] <peter_felching> Hi. What do I need to put in sudoer's timestamp_timeout line to turn the time off? Not to be misunderstood - I want the poswordless access all the time for running session after the initial input.
[16:11] <Flizzer> ikonia: do you know why, even it "preseeds" the questions, I still have to click on "Next", I would have wanted this would be done automatically :/
[16:11] <h4xx0r> This problem is now becoming a pain-in-the-ass since I have to try multiple times to download just a single software/package. :(
[16:12] <truepurple> meganerd: I don't see a "dmesg"
[16:12] <jrib> h4xx0r: try using a different mirror
[16:12] <meganerd> truepurple: sorry my bad,  you type it at the command line
[16:12] <ikonia> Flizzer: the only time I see that happen is when the file is formatted wrong
[16:12] <h4xx0r> how can I do that someone please tell me
[16:12] <h4xx0r> :(
[16:12] <kriep> h4xx0r: try command for greater speed: xrandr -y
[16:13] <truepurple> meganerd: Yeah that first command worked, but I don't know what info you want from it
[16:13] <jrib> h4xx0r: do not run that command
[16:13] <h4xx0r> its not about speed, it just would stuck. I was just asking if anyone here knew about the ports used by ubuntu for downloading packages from repos.
[16:13] <ctmjr> h4xx0r, run sudo apt-get update and see if you get any errors
[16:13] <jrib> kriep: that type of "joke" is not welcomed here.  Please do not do that again
[16:13] <meganerd> truepurple: do you see anything that looks like it might be related to your video card?
[16:13] <h4xx0r> ok Ill try what ctmjr said.
[16:13] <truepurple> meganerd: And dmesg listed alot of stuff, but too much to make much sense of
[16:13] <h4xx0r> sec.
[16:14] <viki> hi guys
[16:14] <kriep> jrib: got it
[16:14] <meganerd> truepurple: the last few lines should have something that has ati/amd info in it?  Also if you do "lsmod |grep radeon" do you get any output?
[16:14] <Flizzer> ikonia: it's well formatted because it does its job (partitions are as I wanted etc...) :/
[16:14] <truepurple> meganerd: dmesg listed so much, it pushed off all other history
[16:14] <h4xx0r> now update stuck at 99% [Waiting for headers]
[16:14] <h4xx0r> lol
[16:14] <ikonia> Flizzer: thats the only time I've seen it ignore an answer
[16:14] <meganerd> truepurple: try "dmesg |tail -n 10"
[16:14] <viki> Aarandorf: hi
[16:14] <somethinginteres> can I resize the launcher icons in natty?
[16:15] <jrib> !natty | somethinginteres
[16:15] <Flizzer> ikonia: it's not that it ignores but it's not automatic.. I still have to click on Next to validate the "automatic answers" I set.. You see?
[16:15] <Aarandorf> Gi viki
[16:15] <Aarandorf> *Hi
[16:15] <h4xx0r> damn that update didnt do shit lol
[16:15] <compdoc> 23 days is a long time to wait
[16:15] <h4xx0r> anyone else knows why the download gets stuck everytime?
[16:15] <ikonia> Flizzer: well, by not being automatic, it's the same as ignoring it
[16:15] <hidnshadows> !lang | h4xx0r
[16:15] <tasslehoff> is Skype for linux as far behine windows/mac as the version numbers indicate (2.1 - 5.1)
[16:15] <ikonia> Flizzer: asking for manual confirmation etc
[16:15] <jrib> h4xx0r: I suggest you try a different mirror
[16:16] <h4xx0r> and how do I do that jrib?
[16:16] <ikonia> tasslehoff: yes, they are skype version numbers
[16:16] <waynerr> i found the bug on the ubuntu bug list that is making my computer crash and it looks like changing from 10.10 to 10.04 or 9.10 or something else doesnt help as the bug was never fixed
[16:16] <jrib> h4xx0r: System → Administration → Software Sources
[16:16] <Flizzer> ikonia: so that really weird that he puts always the right answer and not automatize :(
[16:16] <somethinginteres> jrib: thanks
[16:16] <tasslehoff> ikonia: I know, I was just hoping they were odd enough to use different version numbrs on different platforms :)
[16:16] <ikonia> Flizzer: never seen that at all
[16:16] <ikonia> tasslehoff: no
[16:17] <h4xx0r> You might laugh jrib but "Software Sources"doesn't exist in the Administration Menu.
[16:17] <waynerr> hopefully disabling the soundcard will help ...
[16:17] <jrib> h4xx0r: it must have moved.  I don't know where it currently is in the menu, but you can run « software-properties-gtk » in a Terminal
[16:18] <jrib> h4xx0r: maybe « gksu software-properties-gtk »
[16:18] <tasslehoff> h4xx0r: Applications -> Ubuntu Software Center
[16:18] <tasslehoff> then Edit menu
[16:18] <eventi> have a problem starting a script (which uses python-daemon) with upstart
[16:19]  * ajf is now using irssi
[16:19] <aeon-ltd> ;
[16:19] <eventi> if i use expect daemon, start and stop just hang
[16:20] <eventi> if i don't, the script will start, but upstart doesn't know it - respawns uncontrollably
[16:20] <h4xx0r> ok I just changed the mirror to "main server" in Software Sources
[16:20] <h4xx0r> gonna try now ;)
[16:20] <jpbrew> mt-daapd is only showing part of my music library when accessed. Any help would be appreciated
[16:23] <elarson_> hi all, I had two questions about running 10.10 or 11.04 on a new macbook pro (8,2). 1) I've read a couple forum posts on wireless being an issue, so would 11.04 be a better bet than 10.10 b/c of the newer hardware? 2) Does anyone have any experience with the macbook pro freezes and does that happen in linux as well?
[16:24] <elarson_> I've been running 8.10 up to 10.10 on my older macbook and everything has been totally fine
[16:24] <geekliketodd> do you also have osx on the laptop? and does it freeze?
[16:24] <aeon-ltd> elarson_: modules change per kernel, theres equal chance a module was taken out or put in during the version change whether it works is down to whether it changed or not
[16:25] <elarson_> geekliketodd: yeah, right when I got it within the first couple hours it froze :(
[16:26] <elarson_> aeon-ltd: good to know, I read the forums a bit more closely to see what has been working
[16:26] <geekliketodd> @elarson_ it may be a hardware issue.
[16:26] <sipior> elarson_: not a good sign. if you just bought it, consider returning it for a quick replacement.
[16:26] <waynerr> when i start the system all sound volumes get reset to max, is that a known bug/a solution for that ?
[16:26] <h4xx0r> looks like changing the mirror did the trick ;)
[16:26] <h4xx0r> hehe xD
[16:26] <h4xx0r> Thanks guys. :)
[16:26] <h4xx0r> jrib u were a real help
[16:26] <h4xx0r> ty.
[16:26] <FloodBot3> h4xx0r: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:27] <sipior> waynerr: running which version of ubuntu?
[16:27] <waynerr> 10.10
[16:27] <elarson_> geekliketodd: they released an update that was hinted at fixing things and since I needed to run linux for work (either via vm or directly on the machine) I figured it was worth it to try installing it on the harddrive
[16:28] <waynerr> the volumebar still shows the old volume when you look at it, but when i start a video/music player i have sound on max
[16:28] <elarson_> I have a call with apple support today, but I don't have high hopes
[16:29] <ceed^> apple does support?
[16:29] <geoffmcc> if i went to bed with computer on and woke up with it turned off, what log file would probably tell me what happened
[16:29] <waynerr> geoaxis, /var/log/messages, dmesg, error.log i would look at
[16:29] <waynerr> ups
[16:29] <sipior> waynerr: you mean the player-specific volume setting is at maximum?
[16:30] <geoffmcc> waynerr: ok. i checked error and didnt find - will check others
[16:31] <elarson_> ceed^: supposedly it is really good ;)
[16:31] <waynerr> sipior, the system volume bar for example is at 15%, the players at 100%, now when i start something it gets outputted with 100% systemvolume
[16:31] <waynerr> sorry for stupid english inbetween, iam german and didnt find any better word then "outputted" :D
[16:31] <elarson_> I have a friend that works in apple support as well so I'm wondering if I can find out what the real issue is
[16:31] <sipior> waynerr: that's fine, we got what you meant :-)
[16:31] <kriep> waynerr: does tilting the system volume a little correct it?
[16:32] <waynerr> kriep, yes
[16:32] <kriep> waynerr: that's a reportable bug!
[16:32] <Flizzer> ikonia: APPARENTLY, preseed does not work with desktop iso
[16:32] <dood> I have 5 computers and 1 server.  On all 5 computers I want them to have no hard drives and PXE boot into the server.  I don't want a thin client, but rather I would just like to have them use the hard drive space on the server only.  I have found some guides, but they all wanted me to boot from a CD first.  Is there a way for me to do this without ever needing a drive on ANY of the 5 computers?  Guides are helpful! ;o)  Thanks.

[16:33] <userdel> can anyone tell me why i am not able to setup a wireless network. if i do then it becomes hidden .
[16:34] <jennifer__> Hi, is anyone available to help me I have a problem with rythmbox and a creative Zen MP4 player
[16:34] <jennifer__> on Ubuntu 10.4 Netbook
[16:34] <mattish> dood, you just need to configure ltsp and dhcpd/tftpd to handle the pxe boot
[16:34] <sipior> waynerr: if you run "pavucontrol", what is the listing for the system volume?
[16:35] <root> kakashi
[16:35] <aeon-ltd> jennifer__: just ask away instead of asking to ask
[16:35] <jennifer__> I connect my MP4 player and select open with Rythmbox then when rythmbox opens under devices I have "Unknown Device" and i cant use my music from my mp4 in rythmbox
[16:36] <dood> mattish, thank you.
[16:36] <vanguard> should I use sh or bash in my scripts? Does it hurt to use sh if I do not use any bash specific stuff?
[16:36] <waynerr> sipior, isnt installed should i ?
[16:36] <sipior> waynerr: please do.
[16:36] <geraudk2000> Hello Guy
[16:36] <meganerd> vanguard: nope
[16:36] <llutz_> vanguard: if using no "bashisms" you can use sh/dash
[16:36] <mattish> sorry i cant be more help, bit busy myself, but I have used that setup myself so know its possible without too much work
[16:36] <ben21> hi, i have a dead entr in a open-with (from nautilus) how can i remove it?
[16:36] <jennifer__> any ideas why rythmbox wont work poperly with my mp4 ? :(
[16:36] <hoivn> hi
[16:37] <geraudk2000> I want to migrate to Debian from Ubuntu
[16:37] <vanguard> llutz_: so it would give me more portability to use sh instead of bash?
[16:37] <Flizzer> :|
[16:37] <llutz_> vanguard: yes
[16:37] <hoivn> hi every!
[16:37] <truepurple> Do you guys believe that installing the ATI 70mb driver for a radeon 6850 is a bad idea? Is it a bad driver?
[16:38] <sipior> vanguard: then again, pretty rare to see a unix that doesn't come with bash anymore. likely not to be a problem.
[16:38] <vanguard> truepurple: well, on the 2600 the ATI driver works better than the free driver
[16:38]  * sipior likes the bash-isms...
[16:38] <jennifer__> is there anyone who can help me with my Rythmbox problem on Ubuntu 10.4 Netbook version 32bit please ?
[16:38] <hoivn> how to enable fingerprint on dell vostro 3300
[16:38] <hoivn> sr
[16:38] <truepurple> vanguard: Your speaking from personal experience?
[16:38] <vanguard> sipior: where can I find out if I use bashism or not? I have no clue whatsoever
[16:39] <hoivn> i speak english very bad
[16:39] <vanguard> truepurple: yeah, I have a 2600 Mobility here and Urban Terror runs with like 15 fps on free drivers and 127+ with the ati driver
[16:39] <vanguard> truepurple: desktop effects work fine with either driver
[16:39] <deno> hi there
[16:39] <sipior> vanguard: the man page is pretty exhaustive, and i believe it discusses the differences.
[16:39] <vanguard> jennifer__: you could try to move your files there by hand using nautilus
[16:40] <sipior> vanguard: might be remembering that wrong.
[16:40] <deno> can you tell me how to tell to configure to recognize two libraries:
[16:40] <UpdateManager> BIG SCANDAL updating ubuntu
[16:40] <hoivn> can you help me active fingerprint on dell vostro 3400
[16:40] <hoivn> :D
[16:40] <deno> I mean, LIBS=-lmylib1;-lmylib2 is not ok
[16:40] <deno> also separating them with spaces is not ok
[16:40] <truepurple> vanguard: I seem to have at least three options, one I can enable that comes preinstalled with ubuntu, one I can download through "additional drivers" and the ATI one (which I am not actually sure how to install) How do I get a good comparison between them?
[16:40] <deno> and the same with the comma
[16:41] <vanguard> sipior: so already stuff like [ ] and so on is bash? Okay, then I stick with bash I guess
[16:41] <jennifer__> i could vanguard but kinda defeats the purpose of being able to play media from my mp4 : / and also i cant sync new music files to my MP4 if rythmbox wont work with my device properly :(
[16:41] <vanguard> truepurple: Try them out I'd say. I installed mine through the "additional drivers". Usually, you do not install stuff by downloading it frome website in linux
[16:41] <ruan> yeah. PPA or repos
[16:42] <ruan> otherwise, deb
[16:42] <truepurple> vanguard: The additional drivers is the same as the 70mb one, and it worked well for you?
[16:42] <waynerr> sipior, pavucontrol shows my volume at 15% after a restart of the system while the player shows the same behaviour
[16:42] <vanguard> jennifer__: Personally, I use unison or rsync for these things, so I cannot help you on that particular issue. Maybe your player needs to have a certain directory
[16:42] <vanguard> truepurple: I have to check the size, wait a minute
[16:43] <UpdateManager> huge scandal by ubuntu
[16:43] <UpdateManager> +++ ++++
[16:43] <hoivn> +++
[16:43] <UpdateManager> update doenst work ++ ubuntu canocical has wrong done
[16:43] <sipior> waynerr: is there a checkbox to save your settings, by any chance?
[16:43] <jennifer__> ahh ok :/ thanks anyway, im not sure vanguard but i have tried other media players and the same thing, banshee detects my mp4 player but does not display any music i added using windows but i can still sync to it and then playback anything i sync using banshee
[16:44] <waynerr> sipior, the player or the volume settings ?
[16:44] <sipior> UpdateManager: any wrong-doing pales in comparison with your abuse of the language.
[16:44] <sipior> waynerr: the pavucontrol volume settings, sorry.
[16:44] <BajK> how can I share my CD drive on the network with samba?
[16:44] <vanguard> truepurple: I do not know where to find the size but I used "ATI/AMD: proprietary FGLRX-Graphics Driver" (translated from German, does not need to be accurate)
[16:44] <BajK> I tried symlinking the /media/CD thing to my shared folder but i cannot acces it because only the owner has read priviliges
[16:44] <jennifer__> amarok works perfect in the way that it picks up my player displays all files regardless of what program and OS i used BUT it does not play any of my media on the MP4 or local on my hard drive...i dunno whats wrong :(
[16:44] <BajK> and there is no share option on the /media/CD folder
[16:44] <vanguard> BajK: Maybe you can share /media/nameofcd with samba
[16:45] <waynerr> no save buttons
[16:45] <jennifer__> just want a media player that works lol
[16:45] <vanguard> jennifer__: Maybe your Player need some m3u files that need to be generated. Does the player regognize files that are just laying around its drive?
[16:45] <truepurple> vanguard: from within "additional drivers"?
[16:45] <vanguard> truepurple: yes.

[16:45] <jennifer__> as long as they are in the music file i think it recognises them vanguard
[16:45] <jennifer__> its a Creative Zen
[16:46] <hoivn> :(
[16:46] <UpdateManager> +bug 1
[16:46] <BajK> vanguard: there is no share option in the folder's properties
[16:46] <truepurple> vanguard: So no real issues with your additional drivers download? They work well? I can always uninstall latter right?
[16:46] <BajK> well, simplest solutin: COPY the whole thing into the shared folder -.-
[16:46] <UpdateManager> haha loll
[16:46] <ruan> lol
[16:46] <vanguard> jennifer__: maybe the other jukeboxes do not recognize the music folder then. If you want to sync your whole library, you could set up unison to mirror these directories
[16:47] <sipior> waynerr: hmm. i can only find reference to old bug reports regarding resetting volume levels. shouldn't apply to you running 10.10
[16:47] <jennifer__> hmm is that tricky to do ?
[16:47] <vanguard> truepurple: it worked two times on this Mac, one on Ubuntu and Kubuntu. You can uninstall the driver later on. You have a backup of your personal files, right?
[16:47] <UpdateManager> who from you all uses UBUNTU 11.04 ??
[16:47] <waynerr> sipior, but it seems to save my settings anyway so i may try a reset again now, brb
[16:47] <kanneblei> Hello, I'm packaging some stuff using debhelper, and I have a debian/conffiles file. That file contains a single line pointing to a config file of mine which, in the package tree, is under /etc/foo/bar/baz.conf. But I'm getting error messages on it. Any help would be appreciated
[16:47] <llutz_> BajK: theres an example how to do in /etc/samba/smb.conf
[16:47] <truepurple> vanguard: Not sure what you mean by a backup of my personal files
[16:47] <kanneblei> dpkg-deb: conffile `/etc/foo/bar/baz.conf' does not appear in package
[16:47] <sipior> UpdateManager: you can ask about 11.04 in #ubuntu+1
[16:47] <mattish> anyone used pam_ldap ?
[16:47] <geoffmcc> UpdateManager: sounds like you need #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:47] <kanneblei> I tried removing the starting slash, and also adding a "../" to the beggining of the string, but those didn't solve the problem
[16:48] <vanguard> truepurple: I mean just in case your computer explodes, you have a copy of your personal data. I do not think anything would happen, but a backup is never a bad idea
[16:48] <jennifer__> i just stumbled across a program called "gnomad2" i can use which apparently works with creative zens i will try that before i mess about with other stuff, ill let you know how it goes :)
[16:50] <vanmik> trying to install lxml via easy_install, or simple "python setup.py install" and getting error - error: "Setup script exited with error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status". Any ideas how can i fix it?
[16:50] <vanguard> BajK: you probably need to be an administrtor (root) to do that kind of sharing
[16:50] <truepurple> vanguard: I have alot of data to sort out and get off a old drive, then I might be able to use that old drive for backup. But its difficult, most personal data is video files and other things that take up space that the old drive couldn't handle, and keeping up with backups is a pain
[16:51] <waynerr> hasnt helped any, and even disabled the not used ati hdmi soundcard now
[16:51] <phoenixsampras> how to print to PDF?
[16:51] <vanguard> truepurple: well, then just install the driver, personally, I freak out if I do not have my data at least three times ;-)
[16:51] <llutz_> phoenixsampras: install cups-pdf and use it as printer
[16:52] <SaxonMatt> Anyone know anything about handbrake?  I can't get conversions to work...
[16:53] <BajK> vanguard: hm, I can share any folder I like using the Share tab in its properties, but this tab is missing in the /media/CD folder although I am owner of that directory
[16:53] <BajK> but well, copying the whole DVD just took 2 minutes, so its ok :)
[16:55] <kubanc> what the best virtual machine to run windows XP on ubuntu?
[16:55] <geoffmcc> kubanc: IMO virtualbox
[16:56] <kubanc> geoffmcc, what about virtual box?
[16:56] <wangyang0123> virtualbox rocks

[16:57] <pratikk> Hi
[16:57] <fastfwd> Can anyone help me with an SSH-problem I'm having? I usually login with keyfiles and disable password login, so I specify PasswordAuthentication no and UsePAM no in sshd_config, then I login with ssh -i /path/to/keyfile $IP. When I do just ssh $IP, I get "Permission denied (publickey). I set it up like that for all my machines including my new homeserver which is running ubuntu 10.04 server, yes when I enter ssh $IP on any of the client machines, i
[16:57] <fastfwd> t logs me in without complaint, doesn't ask for a password an not for a keyfile either.
[16:57] <kubanc> geoffmcc, sorry, i misundrstood your answer :D
[16:57] <kubanc> silly me :D
[16:57] <fastfwd> What am I missing?
[16:57] <gartral_> hi all, i have a bluetooth headset with some buttons on it, they're volume up/down and a universal "answer" button. what i want to do is make the answer button do things.
[16:57] <waynerr> only annoying thing about virtual box is that nobody tells you that usb support is off in the ose variant :o
[16:57] <geoffmcc> kubanc: but get it from ppa  not repository
[16:57] <benkong2> hey all I have a powerbook g4 10.5.8 will natty work?
[16:58] <geoffmcc> kubanc: go to virtualbox webiste - click on linux install and follow instructions to add ppa.
[16:58] <kubanc> geoffmcc, why, isn't the version from their's website good?
[16:58]  * Whitor uses virtualbox
[16:59] <ljsoftnet> benkong2 whats the processor?
[16:59] <geoffmcc> kubanc: i guess you could go that route. i just add ppa and install that way.
[16:59] <benkong2> power pc
[17:00] <geoffmcc> kubanc: plus if u add ppa and any updates come out ubuntu will get them
[17:00] <Whitor> kubanc, either way is ok
[17:00] <gartral_> hi all, i have a bluetooth headset with some buttons on it, they're volume up/down and a universal "answer" button. what i want to do is make the answer button do things.
[17:00] <Whitor> though, the automatic updating is a nice feature if you go the ppa route
[17:01] <Martiini> Im looking for IRC channel for google help (specifically help on google docs) .. anyone knows such a channel ??
[17:01] <Whitor> gartral_, read the documentation that came with the headset ... ?
[17:01] <gangil> hi I am trying to install gstreamer plugin in ubuntu 10.04
[17:01] <geoffmcc> whitor: yea i have yet to get one, but other stuff updates threw adding ppa so i assume if any ever come out ubuntu will fetch them
[17:01] <Whitor> google is a great resource for information on google docs
[17:01] <gangil> but it always fails
[17:02] <gangil> sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
[17:02] <ruan> gangil: what is the error
[17:02] <gartral_> Whitor: there wasn't any. and i looked it up onlie, it's pathetic, it roughly tells you how too pair with a phone and says "Not windwos compatible" (no the spelling error is not a mistake)
[17:02] <Whitor> geoffmcc, It will... though I use the .deb from their site directly
[17:02] <gangil> Failed to fetch http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg/gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg_0.10.10-1_i386.deb  Unable to connect to in.archive.ubuntu.com:http:

[17:03] <Raikia> anyone know how to make a base 6 BCD adder using 6 full adder circuits?
[17:03] <Raikia> by any chance
[17:03] <kubanc> geoffmcc, thnx for helping me. i'm installing virtualbox right now...
[17:03] <geoffmcc> kubanc: no prob
[17:05] <geekliketodd> I'll be another to vouch for Virtualbox. I sadly have to use Windows for one lousy ssl based vpn and it works really nicely.
[17:06] <Whitor> Raikia, what system is this for?
[17:06] <wfaulk> anyone familar with iscsi root installations?  my initial mount is failing weirdly in initrd
[17:06] <Whitor> wfaulk, what is your initiator ?
[17:06] <crashus> can anyne help me? i have probs double booting latest ubuntu with windows 7
[17:06] <Raikia> Whitor: its for a class of mine.  I just took a test and that was a question.  I just wanna know how to do it
[17:11] <Whitor> Raikia, yeah, I assume this is assembly... but I want to know what system code to use
[17:11] <wfaulk> Whitor: uh, whatever ubuntu installs in initramfs on server installation
[17:11] <crashus> if I use wubi i get stuck at creating virtual disks or if i get past that i get an error saying that root file system is not set after reboot
[17:11] <wfaulk> iscsistart is the cli command, apparently
[17:11] <Whitor> wfaulk, you are using ubuntu as your iscsi server ?
[17:11] <crashus> if I boot from cd/usb, i can only use whole disk, installer doesnt recognise partitions
[17:11] <wfaulk> Whitor: no.  it's an openfiler server
[17:11] <Whitor> wfaulk, why not use a turnkey one like openNAS or FreeNAS
[17:11] <Whitor> openfiler, cool, thats what I use
[17:11] <danileigh79> I'm on 10.04, but 10.10 is LTS, right?
[17:11] <Raikia> Whitor: Oh, I was literally talking circuits and logic gates, not ASM.
[17:11] <Whitor> wfaulk, what version ?
[17:11] <Whitor> Raikia, ahh... I'm not good with the electrical bits ... just when they get turned into software
[17:11] <wfaulk> Whitor: ubuntu 10.10
[17:11] <Whitor> wfaulk, on the openfiler ...
[17:11] <hoivn> sr, can you help me enable fingerprint on dell v3400
[17:11] <crashus> can anyone help me double boot win7 with ubuntu? pls pm me
[17:11] <Raikia> Whitor: Story of my life.  I'm a computer scientist...not an electrical engineer.
[17:11] <WeThePeople> how do i mount a SD card manually in the terminal
[17:11] <Raikia> Damn college.
[17:11] <Whitor> WeThePeople, run dmesg on a command line and figgure out where it recognized the card at
[17:11] <wfaulk> Whitor: heh.  sorry.  Um, it's been ages since I installed it, and I'm not seeing a version number anywhere in the admin console
[17:11] <wfaulk> Whitor: I don't think it's the openfiler, though.  I can mount it in initramfs after it fails initially
[17:11] <Shawn727> I can help anyone
[17:14] <Shawn727> Anyone need help?
[17:15] <MTeck> I'm trying to fix Ubuntu on a mac mini. I installed Ubuntu, then I installed Mac, and now I'm trying to reinstall grub...  http://dpaste.com/528958/
[17:15] <shomon> how do you install mysql, apache and php in ubuntu 10.10 nowadays?
[17:15] <Whitor> wfaulk, I just got done wit ha weird problem with Openfiler.. setting up an iscsi system to a windows 2008 server, i would do everything by the book, and it just wouldn't work ... after several several installs, I purposely did not use its update feature, and a fressh install right off the disk worked fine.  arrrggg @!
[17:15] <llutz_> !lamp | shomon
[17:15] <Whitor> so... you might want to try a new install (isn't hard and is worth the refresher) and this time, don't update before you get it to work
[17:16] <Shawn727> Shommon
[17:16] <Whitor> wfaulk,  ^^
[17:16] <Shawn727> Ill help you
[17:16] <Shawn727> P.M. me
[17:16] <wfaulk> Whitor: I suspect that initramfs is doing something to the network interface while trying to mount the iscsi target
[17:16] <sipior> Shawn727: you're not going to try charging people money again, are you?
[17:16] <Whitor> wfaulk, also ... in IRC type /join #openfiler for more support here
[17:16] <llutz_> Shawn727: stop that "pm and pay me for help" please
[17:16] <gartral_> hi all, i have a bluetooth headset with some buttons on it, they're volume up/down and a universal "answer" button. what i want to do is make the answer button do things.
[17:16] <Shawn727> what
[17:16] <gnugr> !xampp
[17:16] <ikonia> Shawn727: if they need help, people ask questions
[17:16] <Whitor> gartral_, read the documentation that came with the headset ... ? maybe ?

[17:26] <adaro> ayecee: the problem is that the manual mentions specifying a domain but in my case i have none

[17:26] <adaro> without specifying the domain

[17:36] <lasha> guys anyone knows good system cleanup tool? Please help I need to know how to cleanup trash :\
[17:36] <sipior> lasha: ubuntu comes with a "system janitor" tool in the admin menu, as i recall.
[17:36] <Raptors> weezelding, I'm using a 60hz LCD
[17:36] <ruan> lasha: bleachbit or system janitor
[17:36] <lasha> sipior: that sucks and I deleted it :)
[17:36] <lasha> ruan: ok thanks i ll try the first one
[17:36] <Polah> Doesn't System Janitor just do the same as APT's autoremove?
[17:36] <sipior> lasha: you might've mentioned that before.
[17:36] <ruan> lasha: bleachbit is like a linux equivalent of ccleaner
[17:37] <ruan> if you've ever been on windows
[17:37] <lasha> ruan: that is good then :)
[17:37] <lasha> sipior: I appreciate your help
[17:37] <ruan> just use it properly, dont check every box
[17:37] <Raptors> weezelding, I'm using a 60hz lcd. is there a way to use recordmydesktop with 60FPS?
[17:37] <Kor9999> sipior: i was looking some programs installed in ubuntu, i saw a program named Zeitgeist, it logs everything i do, i want to delete it, can i do that?
[17:37] <weezelding> where should i put xset lines if i want to change type speed of the keyboard? does not work from ~/.xinitrc nor /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/default. btw. i am using fluxbox.
[17:38] <weezelding> Raptors: depends if your graphics card supports it
[17:38] <Raptors> weezelding, I have a 8600GT
[17:38] <Seven_Six_Two> why is FloodBot2 toggling the join throttle? Shouldn't it just stay on?
[17:38] <Raptors> I highly doubt it uses that much power...
[17:38] <sipior> Kor9999: i'm sure you can turn it off.
[17:38] <weezelding> mmm, geforce might be a bit troublesome nowadays
[17:38] <const> follow me!
[17:39] <weezelding> as they pulled back their binary blob support
[17:39] <weezelding> natively it should get the optimal values for the screen.. which indicates that your card is not fully supported
[17:39] <Kor9999> sipior: is it important for the system?
[17:40] <sipior> Kor9999: no, not really.
[17:40] <DasEi> did the nouveau driver somehow moved into upstart or initrd ? I can't get rid of the modul being loaded, tried much

[17:54] <jiltdil> i am using 10.10 ubuntu
[17:54] <terry> jiltdil: Esc
[17:54] <jiltdil> terry:not working
[17:54] <terry> jiltdil: e
[17:54] <terry> jiltdil: What exactly are you trying to do?
[17:54] <leg3nd> jiltdil, if your timeout is messed up you can change it in /etc/default/grub for grub2.
[17:55] <DasEi> leg3nd: is listed yes, same sayin is in use (rmmod)
[17:55] <terry> jiltdil: Is it going by to fast?
[17:55] <greenlantern> how can i know how many packages are available from ubuntu, (total packages)
[17:55] <DasEi> man rmmod, force option ?
[17:55] <fastfwd> Can anyone help me with an SSH-problem I'm having? I usually login with keyfiles and disable password login, so I specify PasswordAuthentication no and UsePAM no in sshd_config, then I login with ssh -i /path/to/keyfile $IP. When I do just ssh $IP, I get "Permission denied (publickey). I set it up like that for all my machines including my new homeserver which is running ubuntu 10.04 server, yes when I enter ssh $IP on any of the client machines, i
[17:55] <fastfwd> t logs me in without complaint, doesn't ask for a password an not for a keyfile either. Why is that and whay am I missing?
[17:55] <leg3nd> DasEi, that might be an option but iv never tried it
[17:55] <DasEi> leg3nd: watch if I disconnect, hehe
[17:55] <greenlantern> sudo aptitude search | wc -l
[17:55] <greenlantern>  ?
[17:56] <jiltdil> terry: no idea as hitting esc doesnot works it directs directly to my login screeb
[17:56] <leg3nd> DasEi, you might wanna give it a shot without X running, either in recovery or alt+ctrl+f6, /etc/init.d/gdm stop, then try.
[17:56] <leg3nd> DasEi, make sure you /etc/init.d/gdm start if you want to get X back.
[17:56] <DasEi> leg3nd: I wouldn't ask i Ihad not triedd that and a bunch more, even in init 1 that was not possible
[17:56] <greenlantern> how can i know how many packages are available from ubuntu, (total packages)
[17:56] <greenlantern> sudo aptitude search | wc -l  ??
[17:57] <jiltdil> leg3nd:should i to change here GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
[17:57] <leg3nd> DasEi, hmm.. if you type 'nvidia-' and tab 2 times does it have nvidia-uninstall?
[17:57] <greenlantern> how can i remove a package completely with configuration files and with the dependencies ?
[17:58] <hedkandi> hi folks, I'd like to posit that mplayer on 10.04 is BROKEN
[17:58] <leg3nd> jiltdil, you can give that a try, make sure you run update-grub before rebooting.
[17:58]  * nimrod10 a
[17:58] <weezelding> terry: http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/allpackages?format=txt.gz
[17:58] <leg3nd> jiltdil, worst case you just change it back, it shouldnt effect anything major.
[17:58] <ortsvorsteher> greenlantern, sudo apt-get remove <packagename> --purge
[17:58] <jiltdil> leg3nd:ok thanx
[17:58] <brightspark> hedkandi: really?  I've used mencoder without problems.
[17:58] <weezelding> woop, greenlantern i mean
[17:58] <terry> jiltdil: You probably just need to increase the  timeout
[17:59] <jiltdil> terry:ok thanx i am trying
[17:59] <DasEi> leg3nd: force : ressourcew unavailable, and no uninstaller, I try to find one now
[17:59] <hedkandi> brightspark, for dvds?
[17:59] <hedkandi> the guys on #mplayer tell me the rc3 version is too old to be used
[18:00] <JohnHeikkila> Something's wrong with my updating process. It's been waiting 5 minutes for some process to start
[18:00] <leg3nd> DasEi, whats the output of 'lsmod | grep vga16fb'
[18:00] <compaq17_> Can anyone help with an install problem?
[18:00] <brightspark> hedkandi: nope, I was stitching together jpegs to make a movie.  Never tried a dvd in mencoder, I always used totem or vlc
[18:00] <DasEi> ...installing nvidia-common...
[18:01] <greenlantern> ortsvorsteher: suppose you have deleted files, but the configuration files are there, then how can i remove configuration files and the dependencies?
[18:01] <maco> greenlantern: "sudo apt-get purge packagename" remove the package and its config
[18:01] <brightspark> !anyone | compaq17_
[18:01] <ortsvorsteher> greenlantern, this makes the purge option. you find also information about purge in the man page ;)
[18:01] <maco> greenlantern: apt-get remove packagename just removes the program files themselves
[18:01] <hedkandi> brightspark, ya, well my mplayer is ok with tv decoding, so clearly it's partially operating
[18:01] <compaq17_> my ubuntu installer keeps hanging an doesn't finish the install
[18:02] <compaq17_> how fix?
[18:02] <DasEi> leg3nd: no output from lsmod on vga16fb
[18:02] <greenlantern> maco: suppose package has been removed without purge , now you want to remove configuration files and the depency files, what would you do ?
[18:02] <weezelding> compaq17_: install windows
[18:02] <leg3nd> DasEi, hmm, okay try to run this
[18:02] <leg3nd> '  sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia*  && echo "blacklist nouveau" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist && echo "blacklist vga16fb" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist   '
[18:02] <leg3nd> reboot and try
[18:02] <hedkandi> WHILST I'm here, could I just ask if anyone has noticed the annoying "new feature" on picture viewer
[18:03] <hedkandi> It prompts you to save pictures when you haven't changed them
[18:03] <maco> greenlantern: i think you can still use the purge command on it.  to remove packages that were installed as dependencies but no longer have anything depending on them "sudo apt-get autoremove"
[18:03] <hedkandi> and has a loony button for edit as well
[18:03] <brightspark> hedkandi: could be.  File a bug on launchpad if you really think you found one.
[18:03] <greenlantern> ortsvorsteher:  suppose package has been removed without purge , now you want to remove configuration files and the depency files, what would you do ?
[18:03] <DasEi> leg3nd: nvidia-common installed some modaliases, I mighthave to restart x, I tried your suggestion already
[18:03] <hedkandi> good example of programmers with too much time on their hands
[18:03] <ortsvorsteher> greenlantern, just read what maco writes to you, i think its the solution for you.
[18:03] <y05h1> hi all
[18:04] <greenlantern> what's the equivalent command of sudo apt-get autoremove ?
[18:04] <groundup> Everytime I search for "boot error" I get tons of errors that I don't get. I am trying to install Ubuntu Server over CentOS 5.5 using a USB drive. I used unetbootin to create the drive but all I get is "boot error". That's not a very helpful error.
[18:04] <leg3nd> DasEi, that purge should remove modaliases thats why it has a *
[18:04] <hedkandi> If it's not broken, don't fix it would be well remembered
[18:04] <hedkandi> and instead try to fix all the billions of things that are broken
[18:04] <maco> greenlantern: equivalent command?
[18:04] <hedkandi> like mplayer for example
[18:04] <DasEi> leg3nd: there is package called drm-nouveau or something, which, If I try to reboot suggests half of the system going down
[18:04] <hedkandi> in lucid
[18:04] <DasEi> leg3nd: as said, tried already
[18:04] <maco> greenlantern: itd be equivalent to running deborphan in the old days then removing the packages it told you werent needed anymore...
[18:05] <DasEi> *try to remove
[18:05] <leg3nd> DasEi, hmm   anything special show up with  'dpkg -l | grep nouveau'
[18:05] <max0r> ive got 3 starters in my panel, each of them starting rhythmbox with a different internet radio stream url. when i click one of them, rhythmbox starts the internet radio but comes to front. i want it to stay hidden. how can i accomplish that?
[18:05] <greenlantern> what's the equivalent command of sudo apt-get autoremove , with aptitude ?
[18:05] <maco> greenlantern: there isnt one
[18:05] <brightspark> hedkandi:  Try debian.  Ubuntu is a little more to the feature-rich side of the spectrum, while debian tends to the more stable.  No point using the wrong tool for the job.
[18:06] <maco> greenlantern: aptitude does it automatically *if and only if* all your prior installs/uninstalls have been done using aptitude
[18:06] <jrib> greenlantern: aptitude automatically does that
[18:06] <DasEi> leg3nd: yes, this libdrm-nouveau
[18:06] <hedkandi> brightspark, ya well I get the impression ubuntu is a loony scheme to compete with microso
[18:06] <leg3nd> DasEi, can you '  apt-get --purge remove *nouveau*  '
[18:06] <maco> greenlantern: aptitude has tracked dependency info for a long while, it just cant know whether something was installed as a dependency or on purpose unless it's the thing that did the installing
[18:06]  * andrej wamp: Sean Kingston - Replay
[18:07] <DasEi> leg3nd: apt suggest killing almost all system on removal, leaving me headless, and a ton of apps missing then
[18:07] <hedkandi> hedkandi, I seem to recall I tried debian, but it comes on 120 cds so I soon quit that idea
[18:07] <maco> andrej: could you turn that script off?
[18:07] <hedkandi> is there a repo for debian?
[18:07] <leg3nd> DasEi, its saying remove ubuntu-dekstop or what?
[18:07] <maco> hedkandi: yes, debian has repos
[18:07] <DasEi> leg3nd: amongst hundred's others
[18:07] <andrej> si
[18:07] <jiltdil> terry:leg3nd:thanx it works
[18:07] <leg3nd> DasEi, yea dont do that then lol
[18:08] <greenlantern> too much floodbot , too much nicks/scripts joining/quiting
[18:08] <DasEi> leg3nd: oh real ? hehe
[18:08] <greenlantern> bye
[18:08] <Magnusson_TB> would it be problematic for me to remove my old kernel?
[18:08] <leg3nd> DasEi, was this driver installed by default? or did you install it?
[18:08] <DasEi> leg3nd: default
[18:09] <leg3nd> DasEi, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-install-nvidia-drivers-manually-on-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx.html
[18:09] <brightspark> Magnusson_TB: not necessarily, but it's nice to keep an older one in case a problem exists in the most recent one.
[18:09] <hedkandi> maco: right, well maybe I'll give it a try next time I need to upgrade!
[18:09] <hedkandi> heehee
[18:09] <leg3nd> DasEi, I really dont see how that shouldnt work, if that doesnt work i would go to the nvidia site and grab your driver manually, try to throw it on top.
[18:09] <DasEi> leg3nd: nouveau is the gnu-developed version of nvidia, no full 3d support though, whereas current is the fully functional,closed source
[18:10] <DasEi> leg3nd: .. and that won't load because of these bad nouveau module
[18:10] <hedkandi> who is responsible for dvb drivers - anyone know?
[18:11] <DasEi> brb, restarting X after nvidia-common, oh wait what that line for grub , leg3nd ?
[18:11] <hedkandi> anyone here?
[18:11] <JohnHeikkila> I just set some regional settings on Kubuntu 9.10 and the "Updating system configuration" goes from 0 to 100% and then starts over. Can I just press cancel without any harm
[18:11] <hedkandi> because lucid comes with some new drivers I didn't know they could get
[18:11] <leg3nd> DasEi, line for grub?
[18:11] <DasEi> !ask | hedkandi
[18:11] <DasEi> leg3nd: that modeset to disable nouveau
[18:12] <JohnHeikkila> hedkandi: Canonical?
[18:12] <Guest92572> /clear
[18:12] <leg3nd> DasEi, sorry not sure what your talking about lol
[18:12] <Guest92572> is there a way to do email marketing with evolution or thunderbird ?
[18:12] <hedkandi> sorry about that. I shall try to keep it all on one line.
[18:12] <Magnusson_TB> brightspark> thanks :)
[18:13] <brightspark> Magnusson_TB: no problem
[18:13] <hedkandi> exit
[18:13] <DasEi> leg3nd: sorry, that wasn't you, see pm, well I'll brb then
[18:14] <gnugr> DasEi: before restart did you use " sudo service gdm start " again?
[18:14] <leg3nd> DasEi, try this  'apt-get --purge remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau'
[18:14] <_awvtui> hello
[18:14] <paisano> any chance nouveau will exceed the driver capabilites of a propietary driver ?
[18:15] <DasEi> leg3nd: it's out already, and oc I won't restart gdm while talking, but now
[18:15] <Guest92572> Does anybody here know a way to do email marketing on ubuntu ?
[18:15] <leg3nd> DasEi,    =\
[18:16] <maxwave32> I am using NetworkManager in 10.10. I was getting "Connection terminated." in syslog/messages when using VPN via PPTP. It took me about 10 minutes to realize I had changed the password on another system. Is there any way to increase the debug level for this so that I can get something more detailed?
[18:17] <llutz_> Guest92572: you want to send spam/ube?
[18:17] <bonjoyee> could someone recommend some 'must have scripts' for irssi?
[18:18] <markfletcher> hello, is this the correct channel to ask questions on running ubuntu on apple hardware?
[18:18] <llutz_> bonjoyee: whitelist.pl to block pms

[18:19] <leg3nd> crashus_, ' sudo apt-get -y install conky  '  copy the .conkyrc theme you found into /home/username/
[18:19] <bonjoyee> tazz: check the name ..it could be mysqld
[18:19] <Malina> good idea crashus, I only did conky -d in a terminal -a middle_right or something
[18:20] <Malina> and it aint trans :P
[18:20] <leg3nd> crashus_, then alt+f2 and type 'conky',   good to go
[18:20] <tazz> bonjoyee, did you check out the link i pasted?
[18:20] <markfletcher> this is actually about installing ubuntu 10.04 LTS on intel hardware, MacBookPro3,1 if theres anyone whos done something similar feel free to pm me. Ive got it installed, but dbus wont start
[18:21] <gnugr> tazz: once you install mysql and finish setup, it will start auto with your system, no need to /etc/init.d/mysql start
[18:21] <bonjoyee> tazz: sorry..jumped the gun..
[18:21] <tazz> gnugr, again check my link http://paste.ubuntu.com/589792/
[18:22] <llutz_> Guest92572: look at libmail-bulkmail-perl
[18:22] <maxwave3> Is there any way to increase the debug level for VPN connections via NetworkManager so that I can get more detailed responses to failed connections? Lost 10 minutes today trying to decipher vague "Connection terminated" message only to remember I had changed password.
[18:22] <dragomir> hi all
[18:23] <markfletcher> nobody here had dbus issues after installing ubuntu on intel macs?
[18:23] <JohnHeikkila> markfletcher: Am i right that when you try running it, it boots into console or something?
[18:23] <gnugr> tazz: seems okay to me, now you can install phpmyadmin data-base from your synaptic
[18:24] <markfletcher> @John, yes thats correct
[18:24] <bonjoyee> tazz: try sudo service mysql status
[18:24] <JohnHeikkila> markfletcher: And gives an error message " DBus error org. freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply"
[18:25] <tazz> status: Unknown job: mysql
[18:25] <tazz> hold on i think i figured out the problem
[18:25] <bonjoyee> tazz: check in /etc/init for the correct name
[18:26] <gnugr> mysql -u root -p
[18:26] <Guest92572> llutz_, how does it work ? does it have a website ?
[18:27] <Guest92572> llutz_, have you ever use this tool ?
[18:27] <markfletcher> @John, I believe so, unfortunately Im logged into os x right now, so cannot be 100% sure. I see dbus running in ps-ef, but sudo service restart dbus or service stop dbus I get the error 'Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory
[18:28] <llutz_> Guest92572: nope
[18:28] <Guest92572> llutz_, ok I will read more
[18:29] <JohnHeikkila> markfletcher: Okay, well, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you for I have never owned a Mac <:)
[18:30] <markfletcher> @John - its ok - thank you for your help!

[18:40] <ScottONanski> I'm trying to install Cheese 3.0 and am getting the following errors;  configure: error: Package requirements (  glib-2.0 >= 2.28.0   gobject-2.0 >= 2.28.0   gdk-pixbuf-2.0   gstreamer-0.10 >= 0.10.32   gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10 >= 0.10.32   cairo >= 1.10.0   pangocairo >= 1.28.0   clutter-1.0 >= 1.6.1   clutter-gst-1.0 >= 1.0.0   mx-1.0   gudev-1.0
[18:40] <ScottONanski> How do I find all that stuff?
[18:41] <trism> ScottONanski: sudo apt-get build-dep cheese; should get most of it
[18:41] <iceroot_> ScottONanski: cheese 3.0 is coming from where?
[18:41] <xangua> ScottONanski: sudo apt-get install cheese
[18:42] <ScottONanski> Cheese 3.0 is coming from the gnome website.
[18:42] <trism> ScottONanski: although, when building newer gnome software, you often need many new library versions not in the repos
[18:43] <phoenixsampras> how to support MSSQL with php??
[18:45] <toad__> how do I run a program in command line!?
[18:45] <toad__> lol
[18:45] <toad__> this may seem silyl
[18:46] <jrib> toad__: what program?
[18:46] <toad__> any program
[18:46] <toad__> Im just looking in /urs/bin
[18:46] <toad__> but how do I open or run things
[18:47] <toad__> or terminal programs
[18:47] <jrib> toad__: since /usr/bin is in your path, you just type the name of the command and press enter
[18:47] <jrib> !cli | toad__
[18:47] <toad__> so like /usr/bin/program name?
[18:47] <toad__> ive read all that and no where does it exain how to open a file
[18:48] <toad__> maybe I missed it
[18:48] <jrib> toad__: program name<enter>
[18:48] <toad__> so I type sudo programname <enter> if I need root privs to open it?
[18:48] <ScottONanski> Okay, I wanted to try to latest build for Cheese because I thought that would solve my problem - but I can't get the latest build installed because I can't find any information how how to install it properly - anyway, when I use the mic built into my webcam and try to recordd with cheese, the application video window goes black, and the application hangs. Anyone know how to fix this?
[18:48] <mr-satan> Has anyone had luck with a 100%, or damn near 100% deployment of Thunderbird as a replacement for Outlook in a business environment?
[18:49] <jrib> toad__: gksudo if it's gui, sure
[18:49] <mr-satan> The sync'ing of Tasks/Calendar has always been an issue, even with plug-ins in Thunderbird. :(
[18:49] <Polah> jrib: Do you need to use gksudo? Sudo gparted opens up gparted perfectly fine
[18:49] <ayecee> mr-satan: nope, most of us here have just switched to OWA instead.
[18:49] <xangua> !gksu | Polah
[18:49] <ayecee> mr-satan: that is, here where I am.
[18:50] <toad__> cool jrib
[18:50] <toad__> thanks
[18:50] <mr-satan> ayecee: Unfortunately OWA does not give you 100% functionality, like Task Management or even viewing other users Calendars. Such a shame. I can't stand Outlook and would love to be able to do a pure migration of my users to Thunderbird/Linux.
[18:51] <DimaV> i just addicentally executed 'sudo chown -R dima /.' where dima is my username. is there a way to fix things without backing up and reinstalling? i can still log in
[18:51] <brightspark> thanks xangua
[18:51] <jrib> DimaV: it will be faster to reinstall
[18:51] <toad__> how do I switch an app to a different desktop?
[18:52] <DimaV> jrib: i got all the time in the world, what's the alternative
[18:52] <ibrahim> hi , i have a sound problem the sound has vanished
[18:52] <Polah> DimaV: How did you manage to accidentally do that? Back up your data and reinstall, else you'll have to set it all to root and then change back everything you owned before to your user
[18:52] <jrib> DimaV: revert everything, using a good installation as a reference
[18:52] <toad__> nm figured it out
[18:52] <DimaV> Polah: people 'accidentally the whole thing' all the time, it's sudo after all.
[18:52] <ScottONanski> Cheese crashes when I try to use my webcam's internal mic. Anyone know how to fix this?
[18:53] <DimaV> jrib: last good install is teh whole OS and dat, unfortunately.
[18:53] <DimaV> data*
[18:53] <jrib> DimaV: you can use a live cd for example.  Like I said, reinstalling is easier
[18:53] <Polah> DimaV: You accidentally typed the entire command and hit enter? i.e. you fell on your keyboard and that command then return was enter?
[18:54] <mr-satan> Does anyone have any solid recommendations for a solution for an Intranet front-end to a file server?
[18:54] <DimaV> Polah: no, i meant to type ./ instead of /.
[18:54] <Logan_> Polah: happens to me all the time ;)
[18:54] <DimaV> dot slash
[18:54] <jrib> DimaV: in the future just type . :)
[18:54] <mr-satan> Something that has a user-portal function, as well as doubles up as a front-end interface to a file server?
[18:54] <Polah> DimaV: What jrib siad
[18:54] <DimaV> jrib: well, we live in learn, don't we :p
[18:54] <mr-satan> Oh, and is *not* Sharepoint. :D
[18:55] <DimaV> Polah: so really no point in setting all to root? i have a few services running
[18:55] <DimaV> or there are too many system-made users that would need to be reset?
[18:55] <Polah> DimaV: The vast majority of files in your system will be owned as root to stop you breaking things all the time
[18:56] <Polah> DimaV: So should any unscrupulous people get access to your account, they can do anything they please
[18:56] <DimaV> Polah: if i repeat the same command and swap my user for root, would i be able to su and then change other manually?
[18:56] <sebastian> s
[18:56] <sebastian> witam
[18:57] <Polah> DimaV: Yes. Do the same but set the owner as root and then sudo chown all your own stuff back
[18:57] <Stava> I created a new account in evolution for a pop3 mail, and all mail are being stored in "On This Computer/Inbox" but I'd rather have them in "New POP account/Inbox" (like it is for my imap accounts), how can I achieve this?
[18:58] <sebastian> witam jak zainstalowac kadu w ubuntu 10.10 ?
[18:58] <Pici> !pl | sebastian
[18:58] <ibrahim> hi , i have a sound problem the sound has vanished
[18:58] <DimaV> Polah: i just wanted to make sure i can sudo after that
[18:58] <DimaV> Polah: so please confirm before i run off and screw myself further
[18:58] <Polah> DimaV: Yes you'll be able to. Just reinstall, it'd be easier
[18:59] <DimaV> Polah: well i have to back up 0.5tb of data first..
[18:59] <DimaV> alright, thanks anyway
[18:59] <DimaV> i guess i got a weekend project on my hands now
[19:00] <Polah> DimaV: This is why you don't store everything on one hard drive
[19:00] <Malina> sebastian, try #ubuntu.pl
[19:00] <Malina> not sure if it exists
[19:00] <Malina> but he is wondering hwo to install kadu? qadu i thnk? gadu gadu , a polish IM chat thingy
[19:00] <ibrahim> hi , i have a sound problem the sound has vanished
[19:00] <Malina> from the reps
[19:00] <Pici> Malina: see ubottu's response above.
[19:01] <Malina> I just noticed Pici  hehe :)(
[19:01] <Malina> :)*
[19:01] <Malina> !why
[19:03] <aditirex> anyone ? I have a problem with / , doesn't mount at start
[19:03] <Malina> Dimah... 500 GB is about 7 hrs
[19:04] <Malina> without the overhead of course of going through it, so you should be able to .. well ok.. wekeknd project.. fair enough :p
[19:04] <Polah> DimaV: If you have it on another partition you can just format your system partition
[19:04] <Malina> this is why I have my nice lil OEM partition.. ntfs with win 7 rec. env, at edn of a disk where I also put a backup image of my base system(s) and a few live cd.isos
[19:04] <kdub> never keep the root filesystem and your data on the same partition
[19:05] <Malina> and run it all from there.. and easily backup anything.. (grub is also on that ntfs partition so OS independent, just as the windows loader is)
[19:05] <Dr_Willis> You can set up grub2 to boot a cdrom.iso file from a ntfs partition :) which is handy for 'recovery/recue' operaitons
[19:05] <Polah> Ideally don't keep it on the same drive
[19:05] <Malina> added with what kdub  just said, keep data on sep. partitions from / partitions
[19:06] <Malina> takes me 7 mins to restore windows 7 should I wish, roughly the same with linux
[19:06] <Polah> Malina: Just copying back?
[19:06] <Malina> Dr_Willis, that is what I just said... :)
[19:06] <Malina> that is what I do on my comps
[19:06] <Dr_Willis> Malina:  i would be amazed at 7 min... on a new machine with windows normally it takes  an hr+ for the first boot/updates/pther cruft to get setup on the last 3 machiens ive bought
[19:07] <userdel> can anyone tell me why i am not able to setup a wireless network. if i do then it becomes hidden .
[19:07] <Dr_Willis> Malina:  if i 'restore' the machine to factory settings.. first boot.. again like an hr...
[19:07] <bstarek> userdel: explain please
[19:07] <Malina> Polah, no I have a ntfs partition, type OEM (0x027) at end of disk (at end the recovery is ~ 14 mins, not 7 but I prefer having the speedier front of the diusk for OS/swap), ther I have my custom winpe (recovery windows) with imagex on it, so I apply a windows wim which I have customised which also resides ont hentfs... there I also have a dd image of my base system, which I dd back when lionux is recovering, with a live cd iso which als
[19:07] <Malina> o is on that ntfs part :)
[19:08] <Malina> no installing take slonger.. I apply my wim which has all  my AV, programs and settings done
[19:08] <Malina> (still generalised though so I have to remake the user account and also activate again)
[19:08] <Malina> wow Dr_Willis : this is why I sell to friends custom recovery systems :)
[19:08] <Malina> since they are windows noobs :{P
[19:08] <bstarek> userdel: u mean ur access point is hidden??
[19:09] <Malina> I have windows recovetred WITH my settings n progs (not all of course but the base ones which are massive like atupocad NO :P) etc.. in 15 mins IM back in
[19:09] <userdel> bstarek : i mean the problem is i can create a wireless network ith WPA personal protocol but none of the windows machine can connect to network
[19:09] <Malina> 3 mins it takes to reboot and update registry and services on a gen image, but can make it even* faster, if I wish but this is good enough for me. If pppl pay me for *faster solutions* I can do faster too
[19:10] <bstarek> userdel: the protocol is the same for all the machines...r u sure u configured it the right way?
[19:10] <Malina> ironically, linux is the answer to making life easier in the windows recovery environment, that windows itself.. god M$ suck :p
[19:10] <bstarek> userdel: what dont u configure it from windows....
[19:10]  * sin8h hello
[19:11] <Eyce> hello i need some help on re-rooting some extra space for this very small partition i had to make for this ubuntu class.
[19:11] <kanneblei> Hello, I'm packaging some stuff using debhelper, and I have a debian/conffiles file. That file contains a single line pointing to a config file of mine which, in the package tree, is under /etc/foo/bar/baz.conf. But I'm getting error messages on it. Any help would be appreciated
[19:11] <Dr_Willis> Eyce:  're-rooting' ? huh? clarify what you want to do exactly
[19:11] <Malina> Dr_Willis, yes, I agree and not only that, but the 'factory restore' options are crap... I actually do some of these things for job, as in enhance our oem product
[19:11] <ibrahim> hi , i have a sound problem the sound has vanished
[19:12] <Pici> kanneblei: #ubuntu-packaging would be a better place to ask, not as busy as here though.
[19:12] <Dr_Willis> !sound
[19:12] <userdel> bstarek : configure from windows meaning?
[19:12] <Eyce> i know i used the wrong wording...i mean ubuntu is telling me i have 1 gig of space
[19:12] <kanneblei> Pici, thank you!
[19:13] <Malina> 7 mins ok that is when A. oem is at front of disk , B. does not include 3 mins of further setup so say with windows silly reboto during update of registry ~ 11-12 mins for a factory restore (where factory is your pre-defined programs and settings already built in however :))
[19:13] <Eyce> I clicked examine and its still working..
[19:13] <BajK> is there a *simple* way of mounting iso images? I am not talking about console mount command
[19:13] <Malina> Bajk: look for gmount
[19:13] <bstarek> userdel: set up your wireless from windows and then connect from ubuntu if you want...
[19:13] <BajK> and for kde? :)
[19:13] <Dr_Willis> BajK:  Theres gui front ends.  or make a script perhaps.
[19:13] <userdel> bstarek : why not from ubuntu?
[19:14] <Dr_Willis> BajK:  some archive managers can handle them also.
[19:14] <userdel> bstarek : is there a driver problem?
[19:14] <Malina> for example, else you need to script a few files /change/add some entries to make things mountable (eg. UDF) etc.
[19:14] <BajK> yes, ark can but I cannot just mount them like a regular drive using the context menu for example
[19:14] <bstarek> userdel: i dont think the driver should be a problem at all
[19:14] <Dr_Willis> BajK:   gmount i think can. but i dont use kde. so no idea on kde.
[19:14] <Malina> BajK, yesh, you can but would need to write an automount script and add it to your file manager
[19:14] <giant420> Did anyone else have problems with the Chromium update from the daily PPA today?
[19:14] <Malina> else gmount is somewhat nifty but still is nt a 'right click-mount'
[19:15] <BajK> giant420: yes
[19:15] <BajK> giant420: does nmot start due to "memory fault "or something
[19:15] <userdel> bstarek : then what else?
[19:15] <leg3nd> so dont upgrade?
[19:15] <Malina> erm, actually you could maybe add gmount as the default application however for opening an .iso :p
[19:15] <BajK> screws up my whole day -.- but FF4 is kind of quick
[19:15] <Dr_Willis> I recall seeing a 'right click, mount iso' item in my menus once.. not sure where it came from
[19:15] <giant420> BajK: yup, thats it
[19:15] <giant420> yup, this is the first time I have actually tried FF4 since beta
[19:15] <BajK> giant420: do you also experience frequent flash crashes since friday or somethng?
[19:16] <Malina> just means daily breaks something..
[19:16] <bstarek> userdel: explain again please what u r exactly trying to do and what u have actually done
[19:16] <BajK> giant420: whenever I visit a page that contains flash bam "the following plug in crashed" everytime..
[19:16] <nkh> Hello, what is top 4 or 5 OpenSource DBMS you know? just Name them please if you can, I need them for my homework. Thank you.:)
[19:16] <Malina> giant420, I myself reocmpiled FF to use on ubu , huge gain just there :)
[19:16] <giant420> BajK: not at all. Everything was running great until I updated
[19:16] <BajK> mh weird
[19:16] <giant420> and FF4 works fine, except for that damn audio bug on natty
[19:16] <BajK> on my machine all flash in chromium is nt working
[19:16] <Dr_Willis> nkh:  DBMS's ?
[19:16] <BajK> on my notebook (also daily builds) everything works
[19:16] <stewi1> hello all, i would like to install sudo on my ubuntu via terminal, can anyone help me please?
[19:16] <Eyce> whats the best way to extend drives
[19:16] <Malina> nkh: READ SOME GODDAMN HOMEWORK YOURSELF... its just a thing called GOOGLE you know... JESUS
[19:17] <nkh> Dr_Willis: Yes. DataBase Managment Systems
[19:17] <Malina> db managment systems
[19:17] <Dr_Willis> Eyce:  You can set up a new hard drive and mount it. or link it onto / where you want. if thts what you m,ean by extend
[19:17] <nkh> Malina: Yes I know , but Just Lok at this ! http://www.comptalks.com/top-five-open-source-dbms/
[19:17] <userdel> bstarek : i want to setup a wireless network which is accessible as ad hoc to nearby computers running windows with WPA authentication. the problem is i have created it but not able to connect to it myself.
[19:17]  * Dr_Willis imagines theres whole books (if not dozens of them) on Data base management.
[19:17] <Malina> here, you lazy c*nt: ,,!,,.com, businessDB-r-us.com, im-a-tard.co.uk, open-4-money.com, and ifnally -homework-4-kids.biz
[19:17] <giant420> BajK: So should I just wait for the next update, or attempt to build and install the latest dev build? haha
[19:18] <Malina> :)
[19:18] <ZORA> hi all
[19:18] <ZORA> :D
[19:18] <stewi1> Malina: i came here for the first time and u give a bad name to the chan
[19:18] <Malina> ok sorry stewi1 morale of the story, dpont come here for homework?
[19:18] <stewi1> Malina: i don't see why you should use that language in here
[19:18] <Eyce> oh, i am sorry. what i mean is i need to add more space to this ubuntu partition so the low disk space warning prompt will go away
[19:18] <Malina> anyway, this is my penultimate time before the 2nd time on this channel too!
[19:18] <stewi1> Malina: there is other words to use, this network ir respected
[19:18] <Malina> ok sorry stewil
[19:19] <nkh> Malina: look at that link... really MySQL and Oracle are OpenSource?! it's about 2 houres i'm searching and just finding things like this !
[19:19] <Malina> true.. my apologies
[19:19] <bstarek> userdel: does it connect from ubuntu?
[19:19] <Malina> mysql is opn sourced yes
[19:19] <Malina> Oracle has soem code as open source, other things not
[19:19] <Pici> !ot | nkh
[19:19] <Malina> well, that is the point of homework nkh.. not that you have to list some |abs| values of "top 5" DBMS
[19:19] <userdel> bstarek: no
[19:20] <Malina> but that you by reading, realise the variuos issues and topics and nuances
[19:20] <Malina> various*
[19:20] <bstarek> userdel: re-set up it from windows and see
[19:20] <Malina> yes stewi1 , I apologise,
[19:20] <nkh> Pici: Malina: ok Thanks Frineds, Sorry . GoodLuck :)
[19:20] <Malina> you too nkh
[19:20] <userdel> bstarek: it works on win but i need solution on ubuntu
[19:21] <Malina> but hint: learn to peruse, quickly skim thoruhg stuff you find ;)
[19:21] <Eyce> i am doing hw as well i been reading a lot with google. i prefer to collaborate with great minds us alike.
[19:21] <stewi1> would like to install sudo on this ubuntu box so i can update few things, anyone knows how do i download this sudo, i am googling but nothing
[19:21] <Malina> to get the essence, then blag a an answer and hope it hits the eseence of the problem ;)
[19:22] <Eyce> stew1: download what sudo?
[19:22] <bstarek> userdel: i really dont see why its not connecting since the same protocol should be used. i am sorry mate i could have prob better helped if i could physically see the prob
[19:22] <Pici> stewi1: If you are running Ubuntu then you should already have sudo installed.
[19:22] <bstarek> userdel: maybe somebody else can help you here
[19:22] <stewi1> Eyce: i want to use sudo apt-get things
[19:23] <Pici> stewi1: So whats the issue then?
[19:23] <Eyce> yes, su apt-get install tab tab to list or .synaptec
[19:23] <stewi1> Pici: bash: apt-get: command not found
[19:23] <suigeneris> hi
[19:23] <Eyce> sudo if you are not root
[19:23] <Pici> stewi1: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[19:24] <userdel> bstarek: the problem is it's hidden network. when i click on hidden it shows up but keeps on connecting for a long time.  i have a wireless
[19:24] <stewi1> pici: can you tell me how i find that out please
[19:24] <Pici> stewi1: lsb_release -a
[19:24] <Eyce> lshw
[19:24] <Eyce> or that
[19:24] <Lanta|N900> hey if i wanted to install ubuntu but select nothing on tasksel (i.e. base minimal system, not even "standard system utilities") then can i do that from a normal ubuntu disc or do i need the server disc?
[19:24] <stewi1> bash: lsb_release: command not found
[19:24] <Eyce> uname -a
[19:25] <Pici> stewi1: cat /etc/issue
[19:25] <kubanc> is there any GUI nmap application for gnome?
[19:25] <stewi1> CentOS release 5.5 (Final)
[19:25] <stewi1> Kernel \r on an \m
[19:25] <userdel> bstarek: mobile  broadband as well
[19:25] <Eyce> Pici: what does that do ? iam here trying to learn as well
[19:25] <bstarek> userdel: u made sure the password is coorrect sand everything?
[19:25] <Pici> stewi1: Thats CentOS, not Ubuntu.
[19:25] <stewi1> ok i aplogise
[19:25] <Eyce> oh
[19:25] <Pici> stewi1: Ask in #centos
[19:26] <Pici> kubanc: zenmap is one of them.
[19:26] <userdel> bstarek: yes. it's created and saved
[19:26] <stewi1> ok guys sorry to bother you, thanks anyway
[19:26] <Pici> Eyce: lsb_release -a and /etc/issue both should contain the information about which Ubuntu version is installed.
[19:26] <bstarek> userdel: i really dont know what the problem is my friend
[19:26] <Eyce> ok, nice. good stuff
[19:28] <swatto> Hello all, please could you tell me what a good Email client is that runs in the terminal?
[19:28] <Eyce> Pici: i have a low limit disk space on this partition. i have a 1 TB external drive so space is not the problem as well as a 320 GB which is partitioned to a bunch of os's for my courses.
[19:29] <toyman61> Ubuntu 10.04 with Windows XP host on VirtualBox: How can I define an usb-printer on Ubuntu host as network printer in XP ?
[19:30] <Pici> Eyce: I'm not sure what you're asking me.
[19:30] <toyman61> eeehh.... I mean Windows XP Guest - of course...
[19:30] <Eyce> how can i extend more space to this little partition?
[19:31] <regina> toyman61: install samba on ubuntu...
[19:31] <Pici> Eyce: Boot off of a live CD and use gparted to extend your partition.
[19:31] <leg3nd> Eyce, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GParted
[19:32] <toyman61> regina: Do I have to use Samba ?
[19:32] <Eyce> oh ok my bad thanks guys.
[19:32] <toyman61> regina: The printer is connected to my Ubuntu host via usb. XP is the guest operating system..
[19:32] <regina> toyman61: if you want to share via the network then yes..
[19:33] <Tuplad> Is it possible to install Windows without quitting Ubuntu ? (without VM)
[19:33] <erUSUL> Tuplad: no
[19:33] <regina> !dualboot | Tuplad
[19:33] <toyman61> regina: Ok. I'll try to setup and configure samba...
[19:33] <Tuplad> Dual boot, exactly. But for some reason, my pc won't accept any Windows 7 cd.
[19:34] <Tuplad> so I was wondering can I somehow install it ?
[19:34] <Tuplad> it accepts the cd, I can browse through it, but I can't install... it just freezes when the "windows is loading setup files" screen appears
[19:34] <erUSUL> Tuplad: ask in ##windows ?
[19:34] <Tuplad> erUSUL: I'm using Ubuntu.
[19:34] <regina> Tuplad: try booting from the cd..
[19:34] <Tuplad> regina: I am booting from cd.
[19:35] <erUSUL> Tuplad: but you want to install windows and the problem is with the windows install cd
[19:35] <Tuplad> erUSUL: I think it's hardware related, not sure actually. the CD works everywhere.
[19:35] <Tuplad> regina: that's the frustrating part, whenever I boot from cd, it freezes. works fine at other computers.
[19:36] <Pici> Tuplad: That wouldn't have anything to do with Ubuntu
[19:36] <bstarek> Tupload: i suggest you reburn the CD at lower speed....
[19:37] <Tuplad> bstarek: why ?
[19:37] <LarsTorben> a question, one minute ago an new system update distroyed my system.
[19:38] <bstarek> Tupload: because sometimes some error are created if u burn the cd too fast...
[19:38] <LarsTorben> now i  have to new install
[19:38] <Tuplad> bstarek: I see. eventhough different copies work on different machines ? all windows version work, but not 7, lol.
[19:39] <LarsTorben> i wanted to ask if  i should take the ubuntu again
[19:39] <LarsTorben> or debian
[19:39] <bstarek> Tupload: thats weird, u cant understand computers sometimes....u just have to retry and re-do it
[19:39] <Pici> LarsTorben: If you're expecting an answer other than Ubuntu, you're in the wrong place. anyway, this topic is better suited for #ubuntu-offtopic
[19:40] <Tuplad> bstarek: alright, thanks for your time!
[19:40] <cba123> I'm running Maverick 64 with 4gig ram.  I can never seem to keep it below like 3.3gig used according to "top" that is with nothing major running, most of the programs listed are system programs when I have the 3.3gig.  Any ideas?
[19:40] <cba123> Any ideas how I can lower my ram usage*
[19:40] <erUSUL> !ram
[19:40] <regina> cba123: try free -m
[19:40] <erUSUL> cba123: ^
[19:40] <bstarek> Tupload: no worries
[19:41] <cba123> erUSUL, But it frequently slows to a crawl with that.  free -m says 3016 used 947 free.
[19:41] <tehnef_> cba123: don't worry about RAM usage unless your machine starts paging out. vmstat is a good way to know whether or not your machine has been paging
[19:41] <nit-wit> cba123, top shows the cache are you sure your looking at the correct area
[19:41] <erUSUL> cba123: sooo... with 3.3 GiB used you have 700 MiB of ram you paid for doing nothing?
[19:42] <cba123> erUSUL, Yes.  Then when I open firefox (or chrome or opera) with a few tabs, then IM, my system crawls
[19:42] <manty> hi!
[19:43] <Tuplad> another thing, anyone has a manual by chance on how to set up ssh access to my machine ?
[19:43] <tehnef> Tuplad: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[19:43] <regina> !ssh
[19:43] <ikonia> Tuplad: install the package opensssh-server then you are done
[19:43] <manty> I'm trying to subscribe on launchpad with my debian.org email address but I'm not getting any mails from the system, any problems there?
[19:43] <erUSUL> cba123: well; check out if you are swapping. if you are not swapping then the problem is elsewhere
[19:43] <Tuplad> tehnef, ikonia: it's installed.
[19:44] <tehnef> Tuplad: if it's installed, it works.
[19:44] <tehnef> Tuplad: unless you broke it ;)
[19:44] <bastidrazor> Tuplad: if you're behind a router then you need to portforward 22 to your internal IP
[19:44] <Tuplad> tehnef: weird, I'll do more googling, maybe firewall.
[19:44] <erUSUL> manty: #launchpad may be a better place to ask ...
[19:44] <Tuplad> bastidrazor: oh, nice one, didn't know that!
[19:44] <manty> erUSUL: thanks
[19:44] <erUSUL> manty: no problem
[19:44] <cba123> erUSUL, I think I turned swap off actually.  free -m says Swap 0 0 0
[19:45] <bastidrazor> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH   Tuplad will help too.
[19:45] <manty> erUSUL: I was not aware of such a channel
[19:45] <tehnef> Tuplad: you should be able to ssh to it from your internal network without a problem. if you can't access it internally, maybe you're running a firewall on the box? if you can but not externally, forward the IP or set the linux machine as DMZ
[19:45] <Tuplad> tehnef: internally is ok, externally I can't.
[19:45] <tehnef> cba123: it's probably not the best idea to turn your swap off
[19:45] <regina> cba123: with 4GB ram...how could one swap that easily?
[19:45] <tehnef> Tuplad: yeah, the latter then
[19:45] <Readplease> Anyone tell me the difference between LTS and Latest? :)
[19:45] <Tuplad> tehnef: thanks!
[19:45] <bastidrazor> tehnef: dmz for just ssh?? a bit overkill don't you think.
[19:45] <Readplease> Also, why is 32-bit recommended right now?
[19:45] <regina> Readplease: !lts
[19:46] <tehnef> regina: swapping with 4GB RAM is way easy with modern software
[19:46] <regina> !lts
[19:46] <Readplease> fail
[19:46] <Readplease> ty
[19:46] <tehnef> bastidrazor: depends on what he or she is using the machine for
[19:46] <Readplease> lol i fail
[19:46] <tehnef> bastidrazor: i tend to give the info and let the questions fall where they may
[19:46] <bastidrazor> tehnef: it appears just as ssh access.
[19:47] <maco> Readplease: 32bit is recommended because 32bit will almost always work (since most 64bit cpus can run it) while if you pick 64bit iso and dont have a 64bit cpu but instead went "big number more better!" then it doesnt boot and thats no fun
[19:47] <kdub> bigger number big bestest!
[19:47] <Dr_Willis> Readplease:  i use 64bit on anysystems i got that can do 64bit. I hae very few issues withit.
[19:48] <Readplease> k
[19:48] <Readplease> so
[19:48] <Readplease> same here... :)
[19:48] <Malkavian> hi, I installed natty and after an update a few minutes ago I cannot start ubuntu anylonger, I am using now the live session; how can I login back into the old system?
[19:48] <tehnef> 64-bit flash has generally always been the major sticking point, but i think even that's fixed now.
[19:48] <Readplease> I don't understand why anyone would install a 3-year operating system
[19:48] <manty> erUSUL: not that they are very responsive there ;-)
[19:48] <regina> !natty
[19:48] <Readplease> it's not that hard to back up and reformat
[19:49] <Malkavian> when I start it, it comes the login windows and then it takes no input
[19:49] <Readplease> So what does "support" mean?
[19:49] <maco> Readplease: bugfix/security updates keep happening that long
[19:49] <maco> Readplease: and we keep helping in here that long
[19:49] <tehnef> Readplease: there's plenty of reason to install an OS that's still officially supported
[19:49] <Readplease> SO official support is going to drop?
[19:50] <maco> for 10.04 it'll drop in 2013
[19:50] <Readplease> And then there will be a 10.11?
[19:50] <tehnef> maco: or 2015 for server :)
[19:50] <craigbass1976> I'm about to embark on a server setup.  When I set up mail, I don't want a user account on the box for everyone that has mail.  The CentOS box I have currently running is set up that way.  What do I do different?
[19:50] <maco> tehnef: yup
[19:50] <maco> Readplease: no
[19:50] <Readplease> Oh.  Well what's next, maco? :)
[19:50] <tehnef> Readplease: it's year.month, and the support cycle depends on whether or not it's an LTS release
[19:50] <maco> Readplease: 10.10 is already out. the next release will be 11.04. then will be 11.10, and then the next LTS will be 12.04
[19:51] <maco> Readplease: 11.04 will be out in about 3 weeks
[19:51] <Readplease> Okay.  Then all I don't understand is what the difference is in software
[19:51] <Readplease> I mean...
[19:51] <maco> Readplease: newer ubuntu releases have newer versions of upstream software
[19:51] <Readplease> Is it just an allert that pops up in 3 years that says, "Dude!  Update!"
[19:51] <Readplease> ?
[19:51] <maco> Readplease: and slight changes in default installs
[19:51] <saal7193> how do i search for files in any folder like i can on windows?
[19:52] <maco> Readplease: you get update notifications for bugfix/security updates all the time... but itll offer a new release
[19:52] <regina> saal7193: gnome-search-tool
[19:52] <Dr_Willis> Readplease:  your computer starts laughing at you... :)
[19:52] <tehnef> Readplease: the default packages have changed/evolved, the kernels are quite different, etc. the releases are quite different, especially when you compare them on a longer scale than adjacent releases
[19:52] <blm22> Hmm
[19:52] <maco> Readplease: by default, LTS are set to only tell you about new LTS releases, and they'll do that a few months after the new LTS happens so it has time to get a bit of use before you upgrade your system
[19:52] <Readplease> how large should my system partition be?
[19:52] <Readplease> last time, it was too small.  i couldn't update
[19:52] <abdulkarim> @all: Hi
[19:52] <maco> Readplease: you can change it to show normal upgrades as well, in which case when a new release happens the Update Manager shows a box at the top offering it
[19:52] <Dr_Willis> Readplease:  deoends on your needs... I say at least 10gb.. if not larger.
[19:52] <regina> Readplease: 10GB for root..
[19:52] <erUSUL> Readplease: 10 GiB if you can afford
[19:53] <Dr_Willis> Readplease:  i would proberly suggest at least 20+
[19:53] <Readplease> that's enough for 3 years? lol
[19:53] <tehnef> Readplease: depends on how you're partitioning. if you're keeping your /home somewhere else i would recommend around 10GB for server and 20GB for desktop
[19:53] <Dr_Willis> Readplease:  it depends on your needs.
[19:53] <Bennit> Hai
[19:53] <Dr_Willis> ive filled up 10gb ones with tmp files.. :)
[19:53] <Readplease> Desktop
[19:53] <abdulkarim> i am having a really Crappy Internet experience on my Ubuntu box...
[19:53] <OO> Hey all i've got a problem with my sound, i can't get it to work and googles going to slow to give me results
[19:53] <maco> Readplease: i used 10GB for / and the rest for /home previously, but as i ramped up development work i needed more room for libraries, docs, and debug symbols, so now i use 15GB for /
[19:54] <Readplease> Decided to cut Win on this pc b/c I finally got better TTS software.
[19:54] <Bennit> I'm having troubles separating my headphones and speakers (in applications like mumble or wine)
[19:54] <Elssha> hi
[19:54] <OO> My audio controller is picked up as (from lspci)  Intel Corporation 82801DB
[19:54] <Bennit> Under windows I'm able to specify under mumble to use the headphones, while under ubuntu (10.04) it doesn't seem to make a distinction
[19:55] <Readplease> ~``X-//`~  hand-coded.  doesn't work with anything that's already out there except Ubuntu
[19:55] <Readplease> as far as I know
[19:55] <Elssha> running 10.10 and since I switched over whenever I try to maximize youtube or other streams my screen freezes
[19:55] <erUSUL> !sound | OO
[19:55] <saal7193> regina but how do i use that to search any folder?
[19:55] <Elssha> tried in FF and chromium, both get the same problem
[19:55] <Readplease> Then I will give 20 gigs because I like docs.
[19:55] <tehnef> abdulkarim: you'll have to be more specific if you'd like help
[19:55] <bercik_> Hi all
[19:55] <Readplease> thank you, maco.
[19:55] <Bennit> I only see one device erUSUL
[19:55] <Elssha> anyone know what might be causing it or (more importantly) how to fix it?
[19:56] <maco> OO: thats not very useful.  "head /proc/asound/card*/codec*"   would give more detailed info
[19:56] <tehnef> Readplease: again, this is if your /home is somewhere else. if you're keeping everything on / and you're using it as a full-time OS I'd recommend 30+ GB
[19:56] <maco> OO: put the out put on paste.ubuntu.com and give the link here
[19:56] <OO> maco: No such file or directory
[19:57] <bercik_> What command and options should I use to check filesystem of ext3 and ntfs?
[19:57] <maco> OO: ls /proc/asound
[19:57] <maco> bercik_: for ntfs, use windows
[19:57] <maco> bercik_: for ext3:   fsck
[19:57] <saket> hi
[19:57] <bengold_> What's the natty irc channel?
[19:57] <bercik_> maco: thanks
[19:57] <maco> bercik_: you cant do it while the filesystem is mounted though
[19:57] <milamber> Elssha: what version of flash?
[19:57] <tehnef> !natty
[19:57] <abdulkarim> Readplease, since a few months i'm having issues with browsing the web (downloading is OK) but some websites like FaceBook, Google etc take ages to Load!
[19:57] <saket> i am trying to install via synaptic
[19:57] <OO> maco: http://paste.ubuntu.com/589834/
[19:57] <Elssha> how would i check that mil?
[19:57] <saket> i am getting time exceeded
[19:58] <saket> but other packages are getting installed
[19:58] <saket> only trouble for some packages
[19:58] <maco> OO: ok so:   head /proc/asound/card0/codec\#0
[19:58] <milamber> Elssha: dpkg -l | grep flash
[19:58] <saket> any help ?
[19:58] <abdulkarim> even empathy won't work properly, i'm logged out out about every 5 minute, Pidgin Crashes as soon as i login to Facebook
[19:58] <Elssha> ii  flashplugin-installer                 10.2.153.1ubuntu0.10.10.1                         Adobe Flash Player plugin installer
[19:59] <milamber> Elssha: many people have been having problems. it doesn't do fullscreen at all.
[19:59] <Dr_Willis> Elssha:  youtube can use HTML5 for its videos. and not need flash :) tht may help woth youtube.. but not other sites
[19:59] <OO> maco: no such file or directory
[19:59] <Eyes> #Is anyone here willing to assist me with a general linux query?
[19:59] <jrib> Eyes: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[19:59] <maco> OO: ok, so whats in /proc/asound/card0 ?
[19:59] <saket> how to add mirrors to synaptic ?
[20:00] <Elssha> so basically wait until 11.04 comes out and hope it's fixed then?
[20:00] <milamber> !mirrors
[20:00] <Dr_Willis> Elssha:  try it now (its in beta) file a bug if the problem still happens.
[20:00] <milamber> Elssha: unfortunately it is not an ubuntu problem, it's a flash problem.
[20:00] <Eyes> jrib: wasnt sure if this was an ubuntu or GTHO channel or not
[20:00] <Dr_Willis> Elssha:  flash is known to be probematic. has been for years
[20:00] <jrib> Eyes: GTHO?
[20:00] <Elssha> it worked fine in my old install
[20:01] <milamber> Get The Heck Out
[20:01] <Elssha> that's why i thought that
[20:01] <OO> maco: http://paste.ubuntu.com/589835/
[20:01] <Dr_Willis> Elssha:  adobe may of updated things and broke stuff.. its hard to tell
[20:01] <jrib> Eyes: well without knowing the actual question it's impossible to tell  you whether it's appropriate or not
[20:01] <Elssha> and i can't switch to 11 until after finals, too much teweeking
[20:01] <milamber> Elssha: what was the last version you were using?
[20:01] <Elssha> 10.04
[20:01] <Dr_Willis> Elssha:  test it with a flash drive. or live cd.. perhaps.
[20:02] <Elssha> I kinda managed to delete something that rendered it more or less useless and had to reinstall, so went up to 10.10
[20:03] <milamber> Elssha: that is interesting, i am on 10.04 now and it doesn't do full screen w/ flash
[20:03] <Elssha> odd
[20:03] <Elssha> mine did it fine
[20:04] <milamber> Elssha: you may have still been on the 9.* series, 10 has introduced problems (not only on linux)
[20:04] <Elssha> maybe
[20:04] <Elssha> i installed it right around when it came out
[20:04] <maco> OO: codec97\#0 then
[20:05] <manty> erUSUL: Somebody is taking care of my issue on #launchpad, thanks
[20:05] <Combatjuan> I would like to delete the Nth line of a file too large to open in an editor.  Suggestions?
[20:05] <craigbass1976> Anyone familiar with usb-creator-gtk?  I'm trying to make a bootable usb drive.
[20:07] <^Phantom^> How can I record from my tv tuner using VLC?
[20:07] <kaafaar> hello all
[20:08] <userdel> bstarek: the problem was the mode should be shared by computers and i had it as dhcp . so it was searching for it all the way
[20:09] <swatto> Hello, is anyone there? dont see anybody speaking here
[20:09] <L40SX> There are people here.
[20:10] <murderertoy> i think the same... is no people or what?
[20:10] <swatto> ahh ok
[20:10] <murderertoy> is the same on a lot of chat
[20:10] <murderertoy> s
[20:10] <Starminn> !patience
[20:10] <OO> maco: http://paste.ubuntu.com/589844/
[20:10] <brightspark> Combatjuan: $man ed
[20:11] <OO> maco: they are both plaintext documents, no more folders
[20:11] <swatto> Does anyone know if there is a good terminal based media player?
[20:11] <maco> OO: it's a directory? oooh interesting. pastebin both files, please
[20:11] <Pici> murderertoy: Look at /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
[20:11] <andai> I'm sharing wireless internet but it only works half the time
[20:11] <Pici> murderertoy: Or if you're using php5-cli: /etc/php5/cli/php.ini
[20:11] <maco> OO: oh i understand why it's like that though. it's an AC97 codec not Azalea..
[20:11] <AegNuddel> why would I get: No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.
[20:12] <AegNuddel> in terminal
[20:12] <Combatjuan> brightspark: The man page on ed says that it reads the whole file into an internal buffer.  I think I'm going to use "head -n(N-1)" and "tail -n(TOTAL - N - 1)"
[20:12] <maco> AegNuddel: either there's no Makefile in the directory or the Makefile doesn't have an "install:" target
[20:12] <jrib> AegNuddel: because your Makefile has no install rule
[20:12] <Combatjuan> maco: What is Azalea?
[20:12] <OO> maco: I see, well here is the output of lspci: http://paste.ubuntu.com/589845/
[20:13] <maco> Combatjuan: "Intel HDA" spec. the fact that intel and nvidia both manufacture things to that spec makes for confusing, so using the spec's codename works a little better
[20:13] <nixiepixel> hey guys!
[20:13] <Combatjuan> maco: Ah.  It's also my daughter's name.  Doesn't seem like the sort of thing she could be made fun of for.  (-8
[20:14] <nixiepixel> how do i become a kernal developer
[20:14] <maco> nixiepixel: check out kernel.ubuntu.com for Ubuntu Kernel Team process information
[20:14] <AegNuddel> maco, i was just doing what the site said to
[20:15] <nixiepixel> ahh ok, thanks!
[20:15] <OO> nixiepixel: Also http://kernelnewbies.org/
[20:15] <AegNuddel> jrib, i was just doing what the site said to
[20:15] <maco> AegNuddel: is there a file named "Makefile"?
[20:15] <nixiepixel> i think ubuntu is really good but there needs to be more features that windows has as obviously windows is better because more people use it
[20:15] <slipp3d> I'm reading that there is a newer version of evolution ... what is the most current version of the software that I can install w/ mapi (ppa's are ok)?
[20:15] <nit-wit> nixiepixel, MS is a corporate behemoth
[20:16] <AegNuddel> maco, no...hmm...why would they tell me to do that then?
[20:16]  * maco wonders why someone is pretending to be Nixie
[20:16] <nixiepixel> and i am just speaking from my personal experience, but i find it is refreshing as i am female, and females are genetically able to think of things differently such as many notable women such as ayn rand because we have the female experience, e.g. the attentions
[20:16] <maco> AegNuddel: is there a Makefile.in maybe? and possibly you skipped a step?
[20:16] <kyle__> Can i format a USB stick with NTFS using ubuntu ?
[20:16] <ni8mare> does anyone know java sockets here ?
[20:17] <maco> nixiepixel: except the *real* Nixie Pixel video blogs for an Ubuntu fan blog, making your imitation of her pretty poor
[20:17] <AegNuddel> nm found another line
[20:17] <noutilus> helo
[20:17] <Combatjuan> nixiepixel: The key to trolling is subtlety.  (-8
[20:17] <maimster> Hi everyone.
[20:17] <slipp3d> kyle__,  yes you can
[20:17] <nixiepixel> i am a linux guru
[20:17] <noutilus> hi
[20:17] <Pici> ni8mare: Try ##java
[20:17] <ni8mare> thanks
[20:17] <Readplease> does Wine work in Windows?
[20:17] <AegNuddel> maco, nm found another line.  Just not clear which was right at first
[20:17] <Starminn> ReadPlease: Why would it need to?
[20:17] <Readplease> I'd like to show someone how it works without cracking open a virtual box.
[20:17] <noutilus> no i work a VirtualBOx
[20:17] <maco> AegNuddel: like  "./configure" maybe?
[20:18] <kyle__> error:Refusing to make a filesystem here!
[20:18]  * Readplease cracks a VB.
[20:18] <maimster> I'm thinking about setting up Virtualbox just to check it out.
[20:18] <jrib> AegNuddel: what site?  What exactly are you trying to install?
[20:18] <Readplease> they rock... but going through a VB to a wine?
[20:18] <pushpop> my farts sing today
[20:18] <Readplease> that's just ridiculous. lol
[20:18] <AegNuddel> maco, ./install.bin
[20:18] <maco> AegNuddel: ahok
[20:18] <slipp3d> kyle__, install gparted ... make sure to umount the drive then format
[20:18] <ni8mare> while joining ##java i got this error : Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services.
[20:18] <ni8mare> Pls help
[20:19] <Pici> !register | ni8mare
[20:19] <slipp3d> kyle__, gparted just makes it simple
[20:19] <kubanc> is there any way you can specify how much desktop you would like to preserve for opened windows. or let's say, i would like to have a specific screenlet to have it's one desktop position.
[20:19] <ni8mare> !register ni8mare
[20:19] <Starminn> Readplease: http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOnWindows
[20:19] <kyle__> slipp3d: Is it GUI?
[20:20] <Pici> ni8mare: no... READ what ubottu said and follow those directions
[20:20] <brightspark> kyle__: yes
[20:20] <AnubArack> can I use Wubi to install the 11.04 beta?
[20:21] <timposey> I am guessing that I have a bug that was downloaded as part of a regular update to 10.04 but audio on both my computers has stopped working in the past few days.  Anyone have any ideas?
[20:21] <Pici> AnubArack: No, see the topic in #ubuntu+1
[20:21] <Starminn> AnubArack: Natty support in #ubuntu+1
[20:21] <Combatjuan> brightspark: Turns out my head > out.txt; tail >> out.txt idea wasn't as quick as I had hoped it might be.  Have you personally used ed for something like this?
[20:22] <AnubArack> ty Starminn and Pici. But then can I install 10.10 and then update to 10.04 from within ?
[20:23] <brightspark> combatjuan: no, because it's about the most user-unfriendly way to edit text available.  Is the file so big you cannnot open it in vim?  I've used that a fair bit.
[20:23] <kyle__> slipp3d: gparted, all done :)
[20:23] <AnubArack> I'm on a netbook and i saw Ubuntu Netbook edition was dicontinued so I want to get used to unity ...
[20:23] <Pici> AnubArack: #ubuntu+1 is for Natty support, not here.
[20:23] <Combatjuan> brightspark: Yeah, it's too big for vim.  And that doesn't happen ofent.
[20:23] <Eyes> Ok, I just installed broadcom's proprietary drivers since the open source drivers hate on my broadcom 4312 rev01 (4315). The drivers require b43, b43legacy, and ssb to go away. I purged both b43 and b43legacy using apt, and added all 3 to modprobe.d/blacklist.conf. all 3 keep getting loaded on boot. Does anyone know how to fix this?
[20:24] <Combatjuan> brightspark: It's 34GB.  So quite a bit bigger than my memory + swap.
[20:24] <brightspark> combatjuan:  Well you're officially outside the realm of my experience.
[20:25] <Combatjuan> brightspark: Thanks anyway.
[20:26] <Roasted> How do I make DHCP3 auto start when I boot Ubuntu? It's not auto starting the service.
[20:29] <__vincent> hi
[20:29] <regina> Roasted: have you defined a subnet for dhcp server?
[20:29] <__vincent> in wget, how do you make it so the file specified by -O isnt created if the URL is not found????
[20:30] <dougmencken> hi guys! just interesting: which gcc version will be in 11.04?
[20:30] <Roasted> regina, well it should have auto defined, as the package I install with dhcp automatically does that. I just want it to auto start.
[20:30] <dougmencken> and which kernel
[20:30] <regina> Roasted: no ..you have to define  a pool for it to start...
[20:30] <Roasted> regina, it should already be set...
[20:31] <Roasted> regina, hmm
[20:31] <brightspark> dougmencken: /join #ubuntu+1
[20:31] <Roasted> Remind me - where's the config file located?
[20:31] <Eyes> Ok, I just installed broadcom's proprietary drivers since the open source drivers hate on my broadcom 4312 rev01 (4315). The drivers require b43, b43legacy, and ssb to go away. I purged both b43 and b43legacy using apt, and added all 3 to modprobe.d/blacklist.conf. all 3 keep getting loaded on boot. Does anyone know how to fix this?
[20:31] <dougmencken> brightspark: ubuntu+1? is this a channel name or a joke?
[20:32] <dougmencken> ok, 'll try, but I'm sure I'll get new channel with only me inside ;)
[20:32] <[TK]D-Fender> dougmencken: Channel name
[20:32] <Roasted> dougmencken, no joke.
[20:32] <Roasted> dougmencken, Ubuntu+1 is always for the very next ubuntu release that isn't out yet, but it's close
[20:32] <kubanc> are there any CPU sensors installed in ubuntu 10.10, or i need to install them?
[20:32] <Roasted> dougmencken, while *this* channel is always for the most current release
[20:32] <regina> Roasted: /etc/dhcp*
[20:32] <dougmencken> well, really this channel is full of guys, thank you
[20:32] <groundup> I just did a fresh install of Ubuntu Server 10.10 and now I get a blinking cursor. I can boot from my USB drive
[20:32] <Roasted> regina, if a range is set, will it auto start upon boot?
[20:33] <regina> Roasted: after you configure it...try starting manually...if it works...it should start automatically
[20:33] <Roasted> dougmencken, it's just the nature of the best. I'm in here because I want help with 10.10, but I haven't touched 11.04 to help answer your question. Likewise in Ubuntu+1, that's what those guys are discussing. So even though it's still Ubuntu, it's just to split traffic a little bit.
[20:33] <Roasted> regina, thanks!
[20:34] <regina> Roasted: good luck:)
[20:35] <dougmencken> Roasted: okay okay, I just asked because many many package developers rely on ubuntu, and gcc 4.6 has changed a lot of thing, well binutils 2.21.51 too
[20:35] <hever> Hello how could I list the backup superblocks of a ext4 filesystem?
[20:36] <hever> mke2fs is not usable because the fs is mounted, but it isn't!
[20:36] <AegNuddel> My mom's software center always says it is waiting for another software manager to quit, even if nothing is running...
[20:37] <chris4585> is there a support channel for ubiquity?
[20:37] <AegNuddel> I can get to synaptic, and download from the internet, but the software center...no
[20:38] <regina> AegNuddel: do you have synaptic open when using software center?
[20:38] <regina> AegNuddel: or any other package manager like apt/aptitude in a terminal
[20:39] <LarsTo> i do not know sure if i should use
[20:39] <LarsTo> 10.04, 10.10 or 11.04
[20:39] <AegNuddel> regina, no
[20:40] <AnubArack> Does wubi download the iso to the folder it's in ?
[20:40] <iceroot_> LarsTo: 11.04 is a beta, 10.04 is a lts, 10.10 is the actual stable
[20:41] <osmosis> what would cause a sudden drop in # of inode table size?

[20:42] <RavneHursT> Anyone here know how I can mount more than one sshfs at a time??
[20:43] <RavneHursT> I can mount one filesystem.. but as soon as I mount another.. the first goes away :(
[20:44] <dougmencken> sshfs?
[20:45] <dougmencken> time to google
[20:45] <brontosaurusrex> RavneHursT, how do you mount?
[20:45] <enzotib> RavneHursT, it works for me

[20:46] <||arifaX> I need a second cups-pdf printer with its own configuration file. How can I achieve this? I need 2 different postprocessing scripts to work.or is there a way to determine the printer-name in the postprocessing script to do something different then?
[20:46] <spetrea> does HTTPS use a different key for each request or does the browser generate one once and uses it throughout all of its requests on HTTPS ?
[20:46] <new> ïðèâåò âñåì
[20:46] <RavneHursT> brontoszurusrex: once I try that for a diff remotehost and a diff dir.. the first goes away
[20:47] <ignacio99> ola
[20:47] <bastidrazor> RavneHursT: you're using the same mount point?
[20:47] <leg3nd> spetrea, i doubt it generates a new key for each request
[20:47] <deshymers> randomuser: hey do you remeber a few days ago when you were trying to hepl my debug a video driver issue, where my desktop was bigger then my screen?
[20:47] <ignacio99> no hablo igles
[20:47] <Pici> !es | ignacio99
[20:47] <RavneHursT> bastidrazo: two diff dirs within /media
[20:47] <spetrea> leg3nd: so would the public key of the browser be a good fingerprint for a machine ?
[20:48] <Seraph92> Can I get support on here?
[20:48] <RavneHursT> bastidrazor: two diff dirs within /media
[20:48] <ignacio99> i am homexork
[20:49] <regina> Seraph92: if it relates to ubuntu...pleas ask
[20:49] <Seraph92> Can someone help me with a problem I am having?
[20:49] <PresuntoRJ> Seraph92: most likely, yes
[20:49] <LarsTo> I have burned Ubuntu 10.10 on a cd and now want to install. good idea ?
[20:49] <Seraph92> ok thankls
[20:49] <leg3nd> spetrea, dont quote me on that, but yea i belive its asymetric and requires both the public and private (browser) key.
[20:49] <pylix> LarsTo: why not?
[20:49] <MatKill[PL]> LarsTo: depend
[20:49] <leg3nd> spetrea, so i wouldn't think it would be efficient to generate a new key pair for every request
[20:50] <spetrea> leg3nd: so then it can be used as a finerprint
[20:50] <ignacio99> Your speeches Spanish
[20:50] <Seraph92> well, my minecraft server is hosted on ubuntu 10.10 (non-server) and Remote desktop says that I can connect via 50.47.13.124 but When I try, it fails to connect. As well as teamviewer locks up and forces me to reboot the computer
[20:50] <Newb4Life> Anyone know how to fix a stalled installation in Ubuntu Software Center?  It's keeping me from (un)installing other software for two days now.
[20:50] <PresuntoRJ> Seraph92: state your problem... you don't need to ask for permission... if no one can help you here, they will probably indicate where to seek for info
[20:50] <regina> Seraph92: is that server behind a router?
[20:51] <leg3nd> spetrea, im not sure about that
[20:51] <LarsTo> Not sure 10.10 or 11.04
[20:51] <Seraph92> yeah, 50.47.13.124 is the external IP
[20:51] <ignacio99> If someone there speaks Spanish who says 33333333333333
[20:51] <PresuntoRJ> !ask
[20:51] <spetrea> leg3nd: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B32110_01/core.1013/b32196/img/ssl_hello.gif
[20:51] <MatKill[PL]> LarsTo: 10.10
[20:51] <Seraph92> it was working fine with TightVNC up until a power outage took the computer offline
[20:51] <LarsTo> ok
[20:51] <Newb4Life> Anyone know how to fix a stalled installation in Ubuntu Software Center?  It's keeping me from (un)installing other software for two days now.
[20:51] <LarsTo> not 10.04 ?
[20:52] <regina> Seraph92: then you probably have to forward the port ..but try to use vnc over ssh..instead of plain vnc
[20:52] <leg3nd> spetrea, yea you see how the data part is totally isolated from the authentication
[20:52] <spreadneck> does anyone know what this error message means: [GPG error: http://deb.playonlinux.com maverick Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY E0F72778C4676186Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/dupondje/ppa/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz  404  Not Found

[20:52] <milamber> !details | Newb4Life
[20:52] <Seraph92> I am on a win7 comp now.
[20:52] <RavneHursT> odd.. ok.. now it's working..
[20:52] <leg3nd> spetrea, unless they change the key i dont think it would change
[20:52] <RavneHursT> nm
[20:52] <regina> Seraph92: thats right...
[20:52] <leg3nd> spetrea, but then again over the wire its totally encrypted anyways
[20:52] <Newb4Life> ok, h/o as sec
[20:52] <Seraph92> ok, so how do I go about doing that?
[20:53] <leg3nd> spetrea, so youd need remote or local access to the machine to get it.
[20:53] <ZykoticK9> Newb4Life, in a terminal try "sudo apt-get -f install"
[20:53] <Seraph92> I cannot connect to it atm, even though it said I could
[20:53] <regina> Seraph92: on linux its possible using "vncviewer -via" option
[20:53] <spetrea> leg3nd: yeah but can a key be used as a fingerprint, as an identifier for the machine ?
[20:53] <Socky_> Hey guys.  Whats wrong with this syntax?  ssh user@host port:port
[20:53] <Seraph92> well I am remoting from a win7 computer
[20:53] <Socky_> it keeps trying to connect on port 22, and not the custom port i choose
[20:53] <LarsTo> 10 04 or 10.10 ?
[20:53] <leg3nd> spetrea, what do you mean exactly
[20:53] <deshymers> Socky_:  I think its -p port
[20:54] <deshymers> man ssh to double check
[20:54] <spetrea> leg3nd: like , in that diagram I think the key is the "certificate"
[20:54] <PresuntoRJ> Socky_: try  % ssh -p PORTNUM user@host
[20:54] <milamber> deshymers: you are correct
[20:54] <spetrea> leg3nd: you got a server using https
[20:54] <leg3nd> spetrea, yes it is
[20:54] <regina> Seraph92: if its just the local network then its fine..else dont use plain vnc
[20:54] <spetrea> leg3nd: he got many certificates from all the users using that server
[20:54] <MatKill[PL]> LarsTo: 10.10 .... what do you want the older version installation?
[20:54] <spetrea> leg3nd: can you make a 1-on-1 relationship between certificates and clients ?
[20:54] <LarsTo> longer support maybe
[20:54] <LarsTo> but installed 10.10 now
[20:55] <Seraph92> Its not local, I'm at a different location. its my friends computer that I am hosting off of
[20:55] <spetrea> or wait.. it's per server
[20:55] <spetrea> on a server basis
[20:55] <PresuntoRJ> Socky_: if its SFTP or SCP, it looks like % sftp -oPort=PORTNUMBER user@host
[20:55] <spetrea> but it's cool
[20:55] <Rziz> hm, is it possible to dualboot ubuntu arm and android using U-Boot or redboot?
[20:55] <Seraph92> should I set up a static IP?
[20:55] <phoenixsampras> help! docky is overlapping with the bottom menu!!
[20:55] <leg3nd> spetrea, i dont get what your asking sorry, but once the session is stopped the authentication process happens again with a new random key.
[20:55] <Newb4Life> I am using 10.04,  I started to install a package that I forgot the name of (Ubuntu Software Center simply says "installeding packages 50%), and I expect it to either finish or die.
[20:56] <spreadneck> does anyone know what this error message means: [http://paste.ubuntu.com/589863/]? it comes up when im trying to update from update manager...
[20:56] <abdulkarim> phoenixsampras, may be you should remove the bottom menu!
[20:56] <leg3nd> spetrea, so if your talking about passing a certificate to login no its not possible
[20:57] <Seraph92> ok, so I have putty now.
[20:57] <PresuntoRJ> spreadneck: you need to go to playonlinux.com and read there how to get the signature installed on you system
[20:57] <Seraph92> what do I need to have my friend do on his end with the linux machine
[20:58] <spreadneck> thanks, is that for the entire error?
[20:58] <PresuntoRJ> spreadneck: they have a UBUNTU guide with the download
[20:58] <PresuntoRJ> spreadneck: looks like
[20:58] <ula> hi
[20:58] <fisix> i ./configured, make, sudo make installed openssl 1.0.0d but openssl>version still shows OpenSSL 0.9.8o 01 Jun 2010. wat do?
[20:58] <ula> it's my first time
[20:58] <leg3nd> fisix, did you remove the version you had installed before you compiled it?
[20:59] <ZykoticK9> spreadneck, i think the PPA errors are something unrelated to playdeb
[20:59] <PresuntoRJ> spreadneck: the official ubuntu repository come set properly from the distro... anything else, is on your own... for instance, it also happens with Opera (the web browser)
[20:59] <fisix> leg3nd, no. how do i do that?
[20:59] <leg3nd> fisix, sudo apt-get --purge remove openssl
[21:00] <fisix> thanks leg3nd , i'll try that
[21:00] <Newb4Life> I am using 10.04,  I started to install a package that I forgot the name of (Ubuntu Software Center simply says "installeding packages 50%), and I expect it to either finish or die.
[21:00] <Newb4Life> Can anyone please help?
[21:00] <ZykoticK9> Newb4Life, in a terminal "sudo apt-get -f install"
[21:00] <Newb4Life> Tried it
[21:00] <Newb4Life> :(
[21:00] <ZykoticK9> Newb4Life, and what did it say?  what error did you get?
[21:01] <hever> If I try to repair an broken filesystem with special superblocks ubuntu tells me it's alerady mounted, but it is definetly not. How can I force the repair?
[21:01] <Newb4Life> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
[21:01] <Newb4Life> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[21:01] <PresuntoRJ> Newb4Life: try % sudo dpkg --configure -a
[21:01] <ZykoticK9> Newb4Life, you need to close USC first
[21:01] <spreadneck> so i need to use the installation disc to get the ppas?
[21:01] <maco> ZykoticK9++
[21:01] <PresuntoRJ> Newb4Life: there is another apt on progress
[21:01] <xangua> !ppa | spreadneck
[21:01] <Newb4Life> That is what I said
[21:01] <PresuntoRJ> Newb4Life: make sure they all have stoped
[21:01] <Newb4Life> I am trying to end it
[21:01] <Newb4Life> I cannot stop them
[21:02] <Newb4Life> its frozen
[21:02] <Newb4Life> That is what I said
[21:02] <ZykoticK9> Newb4Life, have you restarted the machine?
[21:02] <Newb4Life> Yes
[21:02] <maco> Newb4Life: is it possibly waiting for input?
[21:02] <ZykoticK9> Newb4Life, then you may need to manually delete the lock file.
[21:02] <LarsTo> i look for an good hard drive
[21:02] <maco> Newb4Life: some packages (like java) wait for you to accept a license or answer a configuration question before tehy can finish installing
[21:02] <LarsTo> which should i use for ubuntu
[21:02] <PresuntoRJ> Newb4Life: ok, try running xkill, and click on the program that froze
[21:03] <ZykoticK9> PresuntoRJ, that will almost certainly leave the lock file...
[21:03] <PresuntoRJ> Newb4Life: Alt+F2 opens a nice run dialog
[21:03] <maco> Newb4Life: oh if you rebooted it while the install was going..yeah itll be stuck. delete the lock file as ZykoticK9 said, then "sudo apt-get -f install"
[21:04] <Newb4Life> I rebooted after hours of waiting for it to get unstuck
[21:04] <Newb4Life> I was hoping it would wipe it out
[21:04] <Pici> !aptfix | Newb4Life
[21:04] <openbees> how to enable fire effect in compiz
[21:05] <PresuntoRJ> ZykoticK9: I'll test it, but I don't think a kill -15, which is a default HUP signal, leaves the lock file... a kill -9 probably, though I recall it had not on my systems, ever
[21:05] <mkanyicy> openbees, install ccsm
[21:05] <maco> Pici: ooh -vki? NEAT
[21:05] <erUSUL> !ccsm | openbees
[21:05] <ZykoticK9> PresuntoRJ, i find xkill to be rather unreliable

[21:05] <xangua> !info compizconfig-settings-manager  | openbees
[21:05] <red2kic> openbees: Pour the gasoline over the monitor. Light it up with a match.
[21:05] <PresuntoRJ> ZykoticK9: it could also be the cron update check from update-manager ...

[21:06] <Newb4Life> ubottu: I get a: sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a
[21:06] <openbees> red2kic: did u tried so
[21:06] <Newb4Life> oops
[21:06] <openbees> i have already ccsm installed
[21:06] <Newb4Life> ubottu: I get a: dpkg: status database area is locked by another process
[21:06] <red2kic> openbees: compizconfig-settings-manager is not same as ccsm -- It's a whole different package.
[21:07] <mkanyicy> openbees, then you have to have to tinker with ccsm
[21:07] <ZykoticK9> red2kic, ccsm=CompizConfigSettingManager - same thing
[21:07] <maco> Newb4Life: ubottu is a bot. telling it things like that won't work. Pici is the one who told the bot to give you instructions
[21:07] <mkanyicy> red2kic, its the same package
[21:07] <red2kic> ZykoticK9: What is the simple of ccsm package?
[21:07] <amh345> is there a way to block an ip from pinging my server?  i've got one ip that's hitting me thousands of times a day.
[21:07] <maco> Newb4Life: try without the  ; dpkg --configure -a
[21:08] <openbees> red2kic: and how to install ccsm ...?
[21:08] <ZykoticK9> red2kic, sorry not sure simple-something?
[21:08] <erUSUL> !ufw | amh345
[21:08] <maco> Newb4Life: just the sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[21:08] <red2kic> ZykoticK9: There are advanced compiz settings -- then there are simple (3 options) compiz settings.
[21:08] <maco> Newb4Life: does it tell you what's using it and offer to kill it?
[21:08] <PresuntoRJ> Newb4Life: ubottu is a piece of software.. :)
[21:08] <ZykoticK9> red2kic, ya i know what you're talking about.
[21:09] <mkanyicy> red2kic, let us lay the compiz argument to rest, if you can help openbees out, it would be a great thing you have done
[21:09] <red2kic> ZykoticK9: Alrigh. :)
[21:09] <ezhangin> hello!
[21:09] <Newb4Life> maco no it doesnt
[21:09] <Newb4Life> and xkill didn't work either
[21:09] <ezhangin> can someone tell me how to set the partition type on a GPT drive to 0xDA (non-fs data)?
[21:09] <ezhangin> this is killin me lol
[21:09] <openbees> mkanyicy: thats what i m saying that ccsm = compiz config setting maneger
[21:10] <openbees> openbees : i m not noob ..
[21:10] <PresuntoRJ> ZykoticK9: just tested it... the lock vanished from my system even if I killed -9 the upgrade in the middle ...  :-/ I am not willing to state that it could never happen, or it will happen if you reboot in the middle (I am not rebooting this machine right now)
[21:11] <ZykoticK9> PresuntoRJ, you are a brave man ;)
[21:11] <ezhangin> trying to set up another raid-5 i cannot for the life of me recall how to format on GPT
[21:11] <openbees> mkanyicy: have u any idea about my problem ....even i have comiz-fusion-plugin-extra installed
[21:11] <mkanyicy> openbees, the package name is compizconfig-settings-manager and the command after install is ccsm
[21:11] <PresuntoRJ> ZykoticK9: naaa... it was kind of safe
[21:12] <mkanyicy> openbees, you want fire when doing what? all the time a burning monitor?
[21:12] <ZykoticK9> PresuntoRJ, nothing a "sudo apt-get -f install" shouldn't be able to take care of ;)
[21:13] <searayman> hey all i just tried upgrading from ubuntu 10.10 to natty and its all messy as hell right now. When I first logged on there were hug black blotches everywere and I hav no unity bar nothing
[21:13] <openbees>  as a effect for openning and closing windows......and this is what i am not getting in animation section of ccsm
[21:13] <searayman> right now ilogged off then back on into a classic session just so i can get onlline to gegt help
[21:13] <PresuntoRJ> searayman: try the ubuntu+1 channel
[21:13] <searayman> PresuntoRJ: thanks
[21:13] <searayman> #ubuntu+1
[21:14] <PresuntoRJ> searayman: /join #ubuntu+1
[21:14] <drozdak> give me some good reasons why to update from 8.04 lts to 10.04 lts i'm using custom desktop (openbox + xfce) just wanna make sure that's good decision
[21:14] <searayman> PresuntoRJ: yea i just got in thanks for the tip though
[21:14] <searayman> PresuntoRJ: it dont seem to active
[21:14] <Socky_> PresuntoRJ: thanks
[21:14] <mkanyicy> openbees, seems like this effect is soo hiden if no longer available
[21:14] <mkanyicy> openbees, just checking it out
[21:14] <nothingspecial> drozdak: security ??
[21:14] <hever> can I force to mark a filesystem clean ???
[21:15] <drozdak> ﻿nothingspecial i don't get it, isn't my ubuntu already secure?
[21:15] <fisix> leg3nd, i ran your cmd and config/make/makeinstalled openssl-1.0.0d. running "openssl" now says i don't have it...
[21:15] <erUSUL> hever: which one?
[21:15] <hever> /dev/sda1
[21:15] <fisix> leg3nd, The program 'openssl' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[21:15] <fisix> sudo apt-get install openssl
[21:15] <PresuntoRJ> ubottu !ubuntu+1
[21:15] <hever> erUSUL, /dev/sda1
[21:15] <ayecee> drozdak: no particular reason aside from more time before end of life
[21:16] <erUSUL> hever: i mean... is ext4 ? ntfs?
[21:16] <ayecee> drozdak: newer packages, but it doesn't sound like you're hurting for features.
[21:16] <red2kic> openbees: http://tinyurl.com/2bt6u6r :)
[21:16] <leg3nd> fisix, are there any errors when your compiling?
[21:16] <hever> erUSUL, ext4
[21:16] <drozdak> ﻿ayecee thx :)
[21:16] <erUSUL> hever: pass a fsck on it
[21:16] <hever> erUSUL, it says it's mounted but it isn't !
[21:16] <fisix> leg3nd, no
[21:16] <amh345> im getting an "iptables: No chain/target/match by that name." error when i run sudo iptables -A input IP_ADDRESS -j DROP
[21:16] <erUSUL> hever: if it is the root filesystem just do « sudo touch /forcefsck » and reboot
[21:16] <leg3nd> fisix, try 'sudo apt-get build-dep openssl'  then try to compile it again.
[21:17] <hever> erUSUL, but I'm on a boot CD
[21:17] <leg3nd> fisix, if you run 'make install' it should install or error.
[21:17] <drozdak> also i have another question: i've read that the support of 8.04 will end this month, will i be able to update it later?
[21:17] <ayecee> amh345: that's not a valid rule specification
[21:17] <searayman> PresuntoRJ: yea hardly any activity in ubuntu+1 think its alright to ask in here?
[21:17] <fisix> leg3nd, wait so what do i do now?
[21:17] <popey> drozdak: yes, but it's not as straightforward
[21:17] <erUSUL> hever: « cat /proc/mounts » should tell you if it is or not mounted
[21:17] <[TK]D-Fender> searayman: No
[21:17] <fisix> leg3nd, i'm at the openssl site and i downloaded the latest version from there
[21:17] <ayecee> amh345: perhaps you wanted to add -s before the ip address?
[21:17] <amh345> ayecee: it's not?
[21:18] <drozdak> ﻿popey you mean the option in update manager will no longer be there?
[21:18] <openbees> red2kic : i need this effect during closing window
[21:18] <leg3nd> fisix, try 'sudo apt-get build-dep openssl'  then try to compile it again.
[21:18] <searayman> [TK]D-Fender: who are you?
[21:18] <popey> drozdak: when releases expire, they are moved from archive.ubuntu.com to old-releases.ubuntu.com
[21:18] <popey> drozdak: which might make upgrades difficult
[21:18] <popey> drozdak: not impossible though! :D
[21:18] <searayman> hey all i just tried upgrading from ubuntu 10.10 to natty and its all messy as hell right now. When I first logged on there were hug black blotches everywere and I hav no unity bar nothing
[21:18] <Pici> searayman: #ubuntu+1 is the proper place for Natty questions at this time. #ubuntu is only for released versions of Ubuntu.
[21:18] <erUSUL> searayman: #ubuntu+1
[21:19] <PresuntoRJ> !ubuntu+1 | searayman
[21:19] <[TK]D-Fender> searayman: I'm a person who has seena  lot of people kicked for insisting they be supported for.... unsupported releases here
[21:19] <drozdak> ﻿popey: ok i get it :) but what possible difficulties will i have to face when doing update alter the end of the month?
[21:19] <amh345> ayecee: sudo iptables -I input -s IP_ADDRESS -j DROP still returns iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.
[21:20] <ayecee> amh345: input must be capitalized
[21:20] <mkanyicy> red2kic, what is the name of that terminal irc client is see on that link?
[21:20] <ayecee> amh345: chain names are case sensitive
[21:20] <red2kic> openbees: YouTube -- Find the one with closing fire that you are talking about.
[21:20] <red2kic> mkanyicy: irssi.
[21:20] <amh345> ayecee: that worked.thanks you
[21:20] <mkanyicy> red2kic, thanks!
[21:21] <mkanyicy> openbees, i cannot get the fire thing
[21:21] <Kosmenko> Hi all :)
[21:21] <ayecee> amh345: I didn't even notice that the first time around :)
[21:21] <fisix> leg3nd, same thing, it still asks me to install openssl
[21:21] <Pelo> yeah !! finaly free
[21:22] <red2kic> mkanyicy: weechat are other option too.
[21:23] <red2kic> s/are/is
[21:23] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> hello is there a software that can create an image of a thumbdrive (not only used space, free space too) to disk? i tried ddrescue and ntfsclone but both fail because the pendrive gets randomly unmounted.
[21:23] <hever> erUSUL, /proc/mounts is empty
[21:24] <ayecee> asdfasdfasdfasdf: both of those programs would work fine with a properly functioning thumb drive.
[21:24] <Kosmenko> Anyone there that could give me a hand with something?
[21:24] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> ayecee, well that's why im trying to make an image of it :D
[21:24] <erUSUL> hever: when you do « sudo e2fsck -p /dev/sda1 » what error you get?
[21:24] <guntbert> !ask | Kosmenko
[21:24] <red2kic> I bet it's not a thumbdrive. Must be a huge thumbdrive.
[21:25] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> red2kic, ? nah 2 gb
[21:25] <ayecee> asdfasdfasdfasdf: there's not really an automated way to do that, you'll pretty much have to copy a piece at a time with dd.
[21:25] <red2kic> asdfasdfasdfasdf: Recover the files. Don't go for empty spaces. That's moot.
[21:25] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> moot?
[21:25] <amh345> is there a command to get current server time?
[21:25] <ayecee> moot is irrelevant
[21:25] <ZykoticK9> asdfasdfasdfasdf, moot=not important
[21:25] <maco> amh345: date
[21:25] <red2kic> Pointless. If it's just 2GB, surely you can recover files when it's available.
[21:25] <amh345> doh. i was using Time
[21:26] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> ZykoticK9, thanks
[21:26] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> red2kic, well i was thinking about running a reover files app later on the image of the thubdrive in my HD, to try to recover anything that may have got lost.
[21:26] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> recover*
[21:27] <Kosmenko> I'd been meaning to install ubuntu on my new desktop for quite a while now, and I just finished doing so because my Win7 has crashed. It's been giving me the iastor.sys error, and I've managed to locate the file location, but am unable to find a replacement .sys file to get it up and running again. Is there any way I can find a working one? If not, I need a little help working around in ubuntu, I've never really had a chance to use it mysel
[21:27] <Kosmenko> f.
[21:27] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> ayecee, okay ill go file by file then, meh its only 2gb anyways ^^
[21:27] <Kosmenko> :x
[21:27] <red2kic> asdfasdfasdfasdf: ^_^
[21:28] <david5345> So my sis-in-law is making the switch to Ubuntu ASAP ( hooray! ). Can the Wubi installer erase Windows XP entirely and replace it with Ubuntu's three partitions ? ( Home, / and swap )
[21:28] <ZykoticK9> david5345, no - Wubi relies on Windows.
[21:29] <red2kic> Kosmenko: iastor.sys?  Is this a Window thing?
[21:29] <ZykoticK9> red2kic, yes, iastor.sys is a windows thing.
[21:29] <rokr> siema
[21:29] <PresuntoRJ> Kosmenko: try looking for the sys in another win7 machine, and copy to your... in the mean time, what do you need to start using ubuntu?
[21:30] <drozdak> hi there rokr
[21:30] <rokr> help
[21:30] <david5345> So the only way to get a full install is to wipe the hard disk clean from a Installer CD ?
[21:30] <PresuntoRJ> Kosmenko: is it already installed?
[21:30] <rokr> hard disk
[21:30] <david5345> Too bad the debootstrap and chroot commands don't work in Windows, sigh :(
[21:30] <ubuntu_> hi
[21:30] <Kosmenko> Unfortunately. Alot of my files on there I'd like to get back, and I've installed mount manager aswell to pull the important ones, but some programs I use are windows only.
[21:30] <Kosmenko> Yes it's installed, but I have no idea how to work it at all =\
[21:30] <PresuntoRJ> !details | rokr
[21:31] <rokr> my version ubuntu 10.10
[21:32] <craigbass1976> Ok, I'm numbing it.  What's the package I'm lookin gfor on a new server?  I thought openssh-server was the ssh server, but there's "no install candidate" or some such.  same for ssh-server or just ssh.
[21:32] <PresuntoRJ> Kosmenko: it happens to me too (right now, CAD and a guitar modulation software are killing me)... from ubuntu you CAN access every Windows file, since its able to mount the NTFS partition
[21:32] <red2kic> craigbass1976: "apt-cache search ssh"
[21:32] <Kosmenko> Yeah I know it can do that, but can it runt he programs I need?
[21:32] <meganerd> craigbass1976: try running "sudo apt-get update" first
[21:32] <EmuAlert> What does it mean if the software manager has some things unchecked, but I can't check them?
[21:32] <Richard|> hey, i've installed ubuntu using Wubi, and i'm wondering if there's anyway to skip the grub menu after the windows boot manager menu
[21:32] <Richard|> just to speed things up a bit
[21:32] <PresuntoRJ> Kosmenko: just try not to erase the whole disk when installing Ubuntu, and the data will be there for you (documents, music, etc)
[21:32] <thevishy> is 11.04 ready
[21:32] <Richard|> atm i have to click Ubuntu on the windows boot menu
[21:33] <Richard|> then ubuntu again on the grub menu
[21:33] <red2kic> Richard|: Sure. I'm guessing you're using grub2.
[21:33] <xangua> thevishy: no
[21:33] <red2kic> !grub2 | Richard|
[21:33] <meganerd> Kosmenko: wine might be able to run some programs, but I would not bet on it running them all
[21:33] <thevishy> okie
[21:33] <Richard|> if that's what comes in the latest Wubi, yes
[21:33] <PresuntoRJ> Kosmenko: what exactaly do you need to run, maybe (probably) the is a replacement in ubuntu, or it could also work via Wine
[21:33] <thevishy> Windows boot menu ? !
[21:33] <craigbass1976> meganerd, I knew I was numbing it.  Thanks
[21:34] <erUSUL> !appdb | Kosmenko
[21:34] <red2kic> ubottu: Stop slacking on my queries. :(
[21:34] <red2kic> !grub2 | Richard|
[21:34] <meganerd> craigbass1976: np
[21:34] <craigbass1976> meganerd, why wouldn't ssh be installed by default on a lucid server install?
[21:34] <erUSUL> Richard|: configure grub to not show the menu and to have a very short or not timeout
[21:34] <erUSUL> !grub2 | Richard|
[21:34] <meganerd> craigbass1976: no idea, did you not select it at the tasksel menu?
[21:34] <Kosmenko> I have no idea how to use Wine, but I'd like to run WoW, Combat Arms, a few music programs for instruments and a few others i can't think of off hand.
[21:34] <red2kic> Why is ubottu ignoring me? );
[21:34] <Richard|> i can do this within the grub menu?
[21:34] <mrdeb> ubottu: it's GRUB 1.98, not GRUB2
[21:35] <meganerd> Kosmenko: I would not hold out for most of those apps working
[21:35] <craigbass1976> meganerd, I thought so, but I had my gateway wrong, so maybe it didn't grab it.  I thought all of the packages were right on the install cd though.
[21:35] <amh345> do i need to restart for my ip tables to take effect?
[21:35] <Kosmenko> I figured.
[21:35] <meganerd> craigbass1976: I never really looked.
[21:35] <EmuAlert> Is there any way to have the computer prompt you for your password before fully loading the OS?
[21:35] <meganerd> craigbass1976: bandwidth is pretty reliable here :)
[21:35] <Kosmenko> I only really need a new windows 7 iastor.sys file, and it SHOULD work in theory
[21:35] <ZykoticK9> mrdeb, grub 1.98 is actually grub 2
[21:35] <erUSUL> EmuAlert: iirc you can set up a password in grub
[21:36] <ZykoticK9> mrdeb, grub 0.X is actually grub 1

[21:37] <ayrton> hey i got ubuntu 10.10 and an iphone 3gs version 4.2.1 can i jail break it with ubuntu?
[21:37] <Kosmenko> Just being curious, but what is the prime use for Linux/Ubuntu?
[21:38] <thevishy> its an os
[21:38] <thevishy> !ubuntu
[21:38] <nacol> hi all, how do i install and use aircrack-ng
[21:38] <ubuntu_> what?
[21:38] <rakshasa> Can anyone tell me how I can persist my xinput setting under Ubuntu 10.10?
[21:38] <antoni> hi. is there an ubuntu rescue remix support channel?
[21:39] <craigbass1976> Kosmenko, it's generally for people looking for an alternative to windows or Mac.  I'm sick of one and couldn't afford the other when I made the switch.;
[21:39] <erUSUL> Kosmenko: same as any other OS
[21:39] <thevishy> I like Ubuntu over windows , thats my preference
[21:39] <ayrton> i hated viruses thats why i switch, plus windows runs slower and slows down over tim
[21:39] <ayrton> time
[21:40] <ActionParsnip> I choose OS based on needs
[21:40] <Lcawte> " You can still buy Ubuntu CDs from the Canonical store or burn your own ones and then duplicate and distribute them." --http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/04/canonical-retires-shipit | Does that mean I could make cash out of burning LiveCDs?
[21:40] <Kosmenko> Hm, I've always just heard it was a big user base for developers and programmers.
[21:40] <nacol> hi all, how do i install and use aircrack-ng
[21:40] <meera> i use only ubuntu thats good
[21:40] <spreadneck> need help with this error please: [http://paste.ubuntu.com/589878/]
[21:40] <thevishy> yes slower too ... Yes Kosmenko one of *nix OS is good for programming generally
[21:41] <thevishy> Linux is a popular system which supports a lot of hardware and has good suport from user community
[21:41] <red2kic> Kosmenko: Great for linux beginners and those who want to convert to linux.
[21:41] <ayrton> anyways... any ever jailbreak on ubuntu?
[21:41] <ActionParsnip> There is also BSD
[21:41] <ayrton> mint is "imo" the best linux os to start with
[21:41] <Pici> !offtopic
[21:41] <guntbert> please take distro comparison elswhere

[21:42] <miles> :C Amnesia the dark descent isn't working for me anymore >.<
[21:42] <miles> I log on, and the WHOLE folder is on the desktop.
[21:42] <meganerd> Kosmenko: I use Linux as my desktop OS, I use it on my audio workstation (24 simultaneous tracks), I use it for servers at work, and a router and file server at home.  It really does what you want it to, with the exception of gaming.  Still weak there
[21:42] <coz_>  good day to all
[21:42] <rakshasa> Can anyone tell me how I can persist my xinput setting under Ubuntu 10.10?
[21:42] <ayrton> good day
[21:43] <PresuntoRJ> meganerd: but it might not work with his audio hardware, as it does not work for my Line6 UX1
[21:43] <py_> hi
[21:43] <shane4ubuntu> !adobe
[21:43] <PresuntoRJ> meganerd: Line6's fault

[21:44] <erUSUL> miles: what folder is in the desktop¿
[21:44] <py_> but not in applications
[21:44] <meganerd> PresuntoRJ: I am very familiar with the state of audio on Linux :)
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> py_: can you give the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ./alsa-info.sh
[21:44] <ayrton> has anyone ever jailbreak an iphone on linux?!!
[21:44] <thevishy> macbook with ubuntu?

[21:44] <thevishy> pdf is default on ubunti
[21:44] <shane4ubuntu> it used to be called acroread, but that isn't in the repos any longer???
[21:44] <shane4ubuntu> !acroread
[21:44] <tote> como te llamas
[21:44] <erUSUL> spreadneck: is a problem in the server. those ppa do not respond
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> shane4ubuntu: I always grab the installer .bin from the adobe site, mark it as executable and run it with sudo
[21:45] <fizyplankton> if i have 2 identical ubuntu installs on the same computer, how can i differentiate between them on the GRUB menu?
[21:45] <erUSUL> miles: check ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
[21:45] <miles> erusul: i must of installed it wrong and wasn't looking right. last time i install a game at 1 in the morning
[21:45] <erUSUL> miles: with a text editor
[21:45] <spreadneck> so change servers?
[21:45] <shane4ubuntu> ActionParsnip: it used to be in the repos though right?  was it removed?
[21:45] <tote> que hablas en ingles
[21:45] <thevishy> !adobe
[21:45] <PresuntoRJ> meganerd: I have the Line6, it runs on my Windows and my Mac, but no pinguin
[21:45] <meganerd> PresuntoRJ: I can try to help.  Keep in mind I have hardware that works, so I may not be all that useful :)
[21:45] <tote> cvgbhjm,.
[21:45] <thevishy> !pdf
[21:45] <ZykoticK9> shane4ubuntu, if you add the partner repo you'll find acroread
[21:45] <ActionParsnip> shane4ubuntu: not sure, i've always done it that way, it may be in the partner repo
[21:45] <tjiggi_fo> !es | tote
[21:45] <erUSUL> miles: what is the value of XDG_DESKTOP_DIR= ?
[21:45] <shane4ubuntu> ZykoticK9: I think I have that enabled, ok, thanks
[21:45] <shane4ubuntu> ActionParsnip: ok, thanks
[21:46] <thevishy> you can download and install adobe reader basically from its site also
[21:46] <fizyplankton> if i have 2 identical ubuntu installs on the same computer, how can i differentiate between them on the GRUB menu?
[21:46] <xangua> !partner | thevishy with software centre
[21:46] <thevishy> fizyplankton, you can keep a fancy name and also always the parition name is different
[21:46] <miles> erusul, gimmie a sec i'm trying to find it.
[21:47] <erUSUL> miles: run in a terminal « gedit ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs »
[21:47] <Kosmenko> Is there any p2p programs for Ubuntu? Dell either "forgot" or doesn't send windows disks with the new towers now. I may try and find an .iso and burn it to a disk for a fresh install, and just save the important files in Ubuntu.
[21:47] <Lcawte> tjiggi_fo: well, when it comes to ubuntu, they are killing off shipit, so that rules that option out ^.^
[21:47] <thevishy> Ubuntu on /dev/sda1 and Ubunt on /dev/sda2 is different
[21:47] <thevishy> what p2p ? torrent ?
[21:47] <ActionParsnip> Kosmenko: I suggest you contact your provider
[21:47] <py_> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/rS4wiRGq
[21:47] <Lcawte> And, I'm not a real fan of selling on eBay
[21:47] <LjL> Kosmenko: sure, there are a lot
[21:47] <miles> XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/Desktop"
[21:48] <miles> erusul: XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/Desktop"
[21:48] <spreadneck> erUSUL: would changing servers fix this?
[21:48] <red2kic> Kosmenko: Contact your provider or check your hard drive. Some manufactuerers have hard drive recovery partition.
[21:48] <thevishy> you mostly get almost all you want for general use in ubuntu
[21:48] <Kosmenko> As Dell says "it is a software issue, not a hardware issue, your warrenty doesn't cover this"
[21:48] <erUSUL> miles: so it is ok;
[21:48] <fizyplankton> thevishy: alright. i need to reinstall ubuntu because the video drivers have just gone to hell. there are fragments of video drivers all conflicting with eachother. unless anyone knows how to nuke every video driver related thing back to factory defaults, ill just have to reinstall ubuntu
[21:48] <ActionParsnip> py_: natty isn't supported here. It is supported ONLY in #ubuntu+1 until release day
[21:48] <Kosmenko> Without the raid control driver, the factory restore doesn't work, either. I've tried,
[21:48] <ActionParsnip> py_: the link you need is: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=168d06d9804c518a198ae79bc1ba46fea1159c61
[21:48] <meganerd> PresuntoRJ: I am guessing that you saw this? http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-a-line6-guitarport-or-toneport-ux1-or-gx.html
[21:48] <Jayro> hello, could anyone help me get sound working on Ubuntu 10.10 server edition. I am using mp3blaster but when i try to play a song i get "failed to open sound device"
[21:49] <PresuntoRJ> meganerd: I could get it to playback (output) but the MIC and GUITAR inputs were at the very least very very bad indeed... there is a open driver for their hardware, but not quite good yet, and they say they have not an ounce of interest in Linux "because it would be dificult to mantain" (read - they don't want to open their code to the kernel)
[21:49] <erUSUL> miles: then i dunno what went wrong.
[21:49] <tjiggi_fo> Lcawte, as long as you provide the source code, or a link where it's available, and the license, then it is legal to sell it. But this is off-topic so if you want to discuss it join #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:49] <thevishy> Right you can backup your main data ...go for a fresh install in your current partition .....
[21:49] <soreau> Jayro: Does any other audio work?
[21:49] <miles> I'm just not sure where to put the folder back. erUSUL
[21:49] <py_> ActionParsnip: okey one sec
[21:49] <Jayro> soreau, i do not know, thats the only player i have on it
[21:49] <thevishy> there is no need to have a non working ubuntu .. I think you have alternate OS also just in case you mess up like Windows
[21:49] <ActionParsnip> py_: ask in #ubuntu+1  when natty is released your support will be here
[21:49] <erUSUL> miles: neither do i sorry. try tro move it to your home folder
[21:50] <hobbel> how to check a fat filesystem? fsck doesnt let me and I have a corrupt USB
[21:50] <soreau> Jayro: Try sys>prefs>movie player
[21:50] <Lcawte> tjiggi_fo: meh, thats all I wanted to know, I was only considering it anyway, I thought it'd be on topic due to it being Ubuntu and its licensing...
[21:50] <py_> ActionParsnip: thank you, same problem was on 10.10
[21:50] <ActionParsnip> !sound | Jayro
[21:50] <erUSUL> hobbel: fsck.vfat ?
[21:50] <fizyplankton> thevishy: i already have a dual booted machibe with lucid and xp
[21:50] <soreau> Jayro: Err, apps>sound and video>movie plyer
[21:50] <ActionParsnip> py_: your release is currently natty, thats what matters
[21:50] <PresuntoRJ> meganerd: I also have tried to use a low latency kernel, like the UbuntuStudio one... very creepy...
[21:50] <miles> erUSUL: thanks for your help though. il see if i can get some friends to team viewer me if they can help.
[21:50] <Jayro> soreau, ActionParsnip, i have server edition so i am limited to command line.
[21:50] <thevishy> then I think you can just fresh install Ubuntu on the existing partition of Ubuntu ... in the end a new grub will b e created for you ...so nothing to worry
[21:50] <py_> ActionParsnip: is there any way to downgrade?
[21:50] <PresuntoRJ> meganerd: I think I have to keep my penguins toneless for now
[21:50] <hobbel> erUSUL "logical sector size is zero"
[21:50] <fizyplankton> thevishy: and also, i have 500 gigs of unpartitioned space. so no worries there
[21:51] <ActionParsnip> Jayro: do you have the alsa packages installed?
[21:51] <soreau> Jayro: In that case, run alsamixer and user m to (un)mute tracks, arrow keys to navigate
[21:51] <meganerd> PresuntoRJ: I know the song and dance.  RME has products that rock (like my 9652) under linux and some that don't work at all.  You get very different messages sometimes from the same company
[21:51] <py_> ActionParsnip: or is it better clean install?
[21:51] <thevishy> fizyplankton, my personal choice would be to install on the same partition
[21:51] <erUSUL> hobbel: corrupt partition table? try testdisk on it
[21:51] <ActionParsnip> py_: i always clean install
[21:51] <soreau> Jayro: But you might try the server channel
[21:51] <soreau> ! server | Jayro
[21:51] <meganerd> PresuntoRJ: Low latency kernels can cause issues with nvidia and fglrx drivers
[21:51] <Jayro> ActionParsnip, soreau alsa is installed but it refuses to open alsamixer, says it dosnt exist
[21:51] <py_> ActionParsnip: ok thank you tomorrow i/ll install clean and see what happens.
[21:52] <hobbel> erUSUL you mean check filesystem? It returns filesystem not clean, so there is def. something wrong. Its mounted read only
[21:52] <py_> ActionParsnip: may i contact u tomorrow?
[21:52] <PresuntoRJ> py_:  and I never had a problem with upgrades
[21:52] <thevishy> fizyplankton, like my /dev/sda5 is the Linux , I chcked with df now ....so when I install ubuntu I mention to use this partition to install ubuntu
[21:52] <soreau> Jayro: You have to install alsa-utils
[21:52] <ActionParsnip> Jayro: what is the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh; chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh ; ./alsa-info.sh
[21:52] <meganerd> PresuntoRJ: I am a fan of the low latency kernels (I usually build my own, no real need to do so anymore, it is more of a lifestyle choice)
[21:52] <thevishy> no creating other drives etc , that just keeps a non working partition in my machine which I dont like
[21:52] <fizyplankton> thevishy: so would mine, but i remember it took alot of work to get my wifi working, so i want to be able to have an internet connection without having to resort to about 30 ethernet extension cables. all i remember about my wifi drivers is something with "ndiswrapper"
[21:52] <erUSUL> hobbel: testdisk is a tool to recover messed up partition tables
[21:52] <Jayro> soreau, i have alsa-utils installed
[21:53] <soreau> Jayro: Then alsamixer should exist
[21:53] <ActionParsnip> py_: if i'm on. If you clean install natty then your support is in #ubuntu+1 :)
[21:53] <thevishy> wifi cards having problems ? is it a new computer ?
[21:53] <erUSUL> hobbel: or if oyu can backup the date in the usb and create a brand new partition table and filesystem
[21:53] <Jayro> soreau, but it does not -_-
[21:53] <thevishy> Most wifi things work out of the box ...thats been my experience
[21:53] <soreau> Jayro: What does which alsamiser say?
[21:53] <fizyplankton> its an oldish card,. its a linksys card. cant remember the model number
[21:53] <fizyplankton> its a linksys wusb300n
[21:54] <Jayro> soreau, cannot open alsamixer: No such file or directory
[21:54] <soreau> Jayro: 'which alsamixer'
[21:54] <hobbel> erUSUL i guess thats what I want :)
[21:54] <thevishy> right , on board right ? are you sure it didnt work out of the box?
[21:54] <fili> question: Ubuntu 11.04 beta - is there any way to minimise stuff like evolution / emphaty to the main top panel instead of the unity panel on the left?
[21:54] <py_> ActionParsnip: okey thanks :)
[21:54] <PresuntoRJ> !audio
[21:54] <Pici> fili : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Natty/11.04 support/discussion.
[21:54] <erUSUL> hobbel: s/oyu/you/ and s/date/data/
[21:55] <fizyplankton> thevishy: no. its a usb card. ubuntu wouldnt even see it with the fresh install. i managed to download some ndiswrapper doohickey to get it working. but it works now tho
[21:55] <soreau> Jayro: Which version of ubuntu are you using?
[21:55] <Jayro> soreau, /usr/bin/alsamixer
[21:55] <ActionParsnip> fili: support isn't here til release day, natty support is in #ubuntu+1
[21:55] <fili> thanks
[21:55] <hobbel> erUSUL ; Warning: the current number of heads per cylinder is 245 it should be 255
[21:55] <Jayro> soreau, i had to sudo it....
[21:55] <Jayro> fuck sudo i hate it
[21:55] <soreau> Jayro: So it does exist. Try running with the full path '/usr/bin/alsamixer'
[21:55] <meganerd> PresuntoRJ: I have one of these for my laptop:  http://www.vantecusa.com/en/product/view_detail/439
[21:55] <thevishy> Right try to find the solution for the wifi thing and then go for a fresh install .... you would need to do it anyway
[21:55] <soreau> Jayro: No, don't use sudo for user apps
[21:55] <folorn> heh
[21:55] <PresuntoRJ> !ubuntu+1 | fili
[21:55] <fizyplankton> the page might be in my history. this ubuntu install is no more than a month old.
[21:55] <soreau> Jayro: You can mess up your permissions
[21:56] <mickster04> !ohmy | Jayro
[21:56] <ActionParsnip> Jayro: can you run the command I gave and give the URL generated here
[21:56] <Jayro> soreau, all my volumes are up.
[21:56] <soreau> Jayro: Don't run it with sudo
[21:56] <thevishy> Anyone here ...who knows why Ubuntu doesnt support something like wusb300n linksys network adapter out of the box ?
[21:56] <PresuntoRJ> meganerd: hypercool
[21:57] <thevishy> my USB EVDO modem is detected out of the box ...no settings required
[21:57] <soreau> Jayro: Try running '/usr/bin/alsamixer' as your normal user
[21:57] <Jayro> soreau, alsamixer wont open if i dont sudo
[21:57] <Jayro> ok
[21:57] <ActionParsnip> thevishy: seems to need ndiswrapper
[21:57] <Jayro> soreau, same error
[21:57] <thevishy> fizyplankton, is that a 4g connection or something
[21:57] <soreau> Jayro: Can you show the exact error message?
[21:57] <Jayro> cannot open alsamixer: No such file or directory
[21:58] <Jayro> soreau, ^
[21:58] <craigbass1976> I'm trying to chroot bind9, and get this error when trying to start it.  I've already shut apparmor off for the moment: [ 1727.107571] type=1503 audit(1302037027.028:13):  operation="open" pid=1763 parent=1761 profile="/usr/sbin/named" requested_mask="r::" denied_mask="r::" fsuid=103 ouid=103 name="/var/lib/named/etc/bind/named.conf"
[21:58] <fizyplankton> its just a wireless network connecttion. it works now. i just had to use ethernet to get this ndiswrapper driver thingy. im looking in my history to see if i cant find the website
[21:58] <sveinse> Where does sudo get its PATH setting from?
[21:58] <ZykoticK9> soreau, ActionParsnip regarding Jayro issue - it may be that the server version doesn't add users to the audio (or other) required group(s)???
[21:58] <soreau> Jayro: Seems like you have bigger problems than just audio then
[21:58] <ActionParsnip> ZykoticK9: was thinking that
[21:58] <Jayro> soreau, blarrg
[21:59] <soreau> ZykoticK9: Very possible
[21:59] <erUSUL> sveinse: sudo does not need the path afaik. the shell needs
[21:59] <ActionParsnip> Jayro: if you run:   groups      do you see:   $USER adm dialout cdrom plugdev netdev lpadmin admin sambashare
[21:59] <sveinse> erUSUL: Yes, but the PATH is set to some default when the command is run as root, and I need to add something to it
[22:00] <antoni> i have erroneously erased an usb hd via usb-creator. a few partitions are now one fat32 partition. afaik, no data was lost apart from that. unfortunately, testdisk doesn't find any of erased partitions. any ideas?
[22:00] <ActionParsnip> sveinse: you can add folders to the PATH by adding:    export PATH=$PATH:/new/folder     to ~/.bashrc
[22:01] <Jayro> ActionParsnip, i see..  jarred adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin sambashare admin
[22:01] <sveinse> ActionParsnip: To root's .bashrc then I would presume
[22:01] <sveinse> ...but sudo isn't running sh afaik
[22:01] <lucid_j> Is there any way to extract self-extracting .exe files?
[22:01] <erUSUL> sveinse: /etc/environment , /etc/profile* , root's ~/.profile ...?
[22:01] <lucid_j> I am not using wine
[22:01] <ActionParsnip> sveinse: if you use sudo then your paths will be used
[22:02] <aeon-ltd> lucid_j: hmm iirc there was something like cabextract that could do that
[22:02] <Kosmenko> Is there a way to install a windows program to the windows partition in Ubuntu?
[22:02] <Kosmenko> Such as a updated driver?
[22:02] <soreau> Kosmenko: no
[22:02] <Kosmenko> Ick ><
[22:02] <lucid_j> aeon-ltd: I'll try it!
[22:03] <soreau> Kosmenko: At least, we don't support installing other software to other operating systems while using ubuntu here
[22:03] <erUSUL> antoni: try gpart ( do not confuse it with gparted )
[22:03] <aeon-ltd> Kosmenko: heh possible but not at the same time, would you really like to edit menu configs move shortcuts, dlls, config files to the right place just to emulate that then enter registry entries and ensure nothing is corrupted?
[22:03] <soreau> Kosmenko: Unless it's linux, in which case you just chroot in and do whatever
[22:03] <ActionParsnip> Kosmenko: you can move ~/.wine to the ntfs partition then symlink it to ~/.wine, the actual storage will be in the ntfs but the OS will think it is in your home. It will then use the space in the ntfs for your windows apps (assuming you have write access to your ntfs partition)
[22:04] <Kosmenko> I need to run an update on drivers for the raid control driver, otherwise my Win7 OS is pooched for gaming.
[22:04] <weirdpercent> somehow whenever I open a terminal program, it defaults to ~/scripts/compiz, not ~. Both gnome-terminal and terminator do the same thing. what would cause this?
[22:04] <antoni> erUSUL: thanks, tried - also the "guess" was wrong... confusing, photorec easily recovers files from "lost" partitions, but in my case it's rather not helpful (i have a full ubuntu install there)
[22:04] <ubuntu_> h
[22:05] <erUSUL> weirdpercent: you have set your home to that in one of the rc scripts??
[22:05] <erUSUL> weirdpercent: what does « echo $HOME » say ?
[22:05] <red2kic> weirdpercent: Take a peek in ~/.bashrc
[22:05] <tdcompaq> synaptic package manager quit on me ... gives this message: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[22:05] <tdcompaq> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[22:05] <Kosmenko> More specifically, I need ONE file from that update to move into the correct place, if there's a way to extract that from the updater file, that would also work, I can just use Mount Manager to mount the partition and go in through /root
[22:05] <ActionParsnip> weirdpercent: at the bottom of ~/.bashrc    add:   cd ~/
[22:05] <tdcompaq> what do I do?
[22:06] <Ray2> To burn iso with k3b ...using image burn and sao writing at 4x ...when verifying I get read error sector 86806...where is the problem???
[22:06] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> hello i'm trying to recover data from a 2gb thumbdrive using ddrescue i ran it once with the log feature on and it managed to recover most of the data, but it ended with an error. Then i ran the same command so it would start from where it left and saved some more data but i'm stuck in the "splitting failed blocks..." part, it only has 2097 kb of data that can't access. what can i do?
[22:06] <weirdpercent> erUSUL, $HOME is /home/doug
[22:06] <ActionParsnip> tdcompaq: did you run the suggested command?
[22:06] <erUSUL> tdcompaq: do what the error tells you to do. run « 'sudo dpkg  --configure -a'
[22:06] <red2kic> weirdpercent: Paste the ~/.bashrc
[22:06] <ActionParsnip> Ray2: did you MD5 test the ISO?
[22:06] <tdcompaq> doesn't seem to work
[22:07] <erUSUL> weirdpercent: do what red2kic says
[22:07] <Ray2> ActionParsnip, yes and numbers are the same
[22:07] <red2kic> !paste | weirdpercent
[22:07] <ActionParsnip> tdcompaq: can you paste the output of the command. Use pastebin to hold the text
[22:07] <tdcompaq> standby
[22:07] <lucid_j> aeon-ltd: cabextract doesn't work.. Any other suggestion?
[22:08] <ActionParsnip> Ray2: do other burners work ok?
[22:08] <Rayann> can someone walk me through configuring my laptop's wireless? It works fine if I plug in an external wireless card, but I can't get the internal card working.
[22:08] <aeon-ltd> lucid_j: none i know of, try other linux related channels to ask in
[22:08] <erUSUL> Rayann: what chip does the wifi uses?
[22:09] <Rayann> chip?
[22:09] <erUSUL> Rayann: lspci | grep -i net
[22:09] <Ray2> ActionParsnip, Tried brasero and have the same problem
[22:09] <ActionParsnip> Rayann: if you run:  sudo lshw -C network    you will see the wireless chip and you can websearch for guides using the product line
[22:09] <erUSUL> Rayann: in a terminal
[22:09] <weirdpercent> fixed it by pasting cd ~ into my .zshrc
[22:09] <weirdpercent> silly nonsense :_
[22:09] <weirdpercent> :)
[22:09] <ActionParsnip> Ray2: try gnomebaker    I've never had a good burn with brasero personally
[22:09] <Kosmenko> Also, I need some help in Ubuntu in regards to my graphic card. I installed the NVIDIA X Server Settings, but can't change my resolution at all
[22:09] <lucid_j> How could i extract a self-extracting .exe file? I am not using wine..
[22:09] <viewer> im trying to use a regexp to match literal(any number of any characters)literal and i thought that was literal*literal, is that wrong?
[22:09] <red2kic> weirdpercent: "cd" alone will do it too. :)
[22:10] <Ray2> ActionParsnip, Okay thanks for the info
[22:10] <weirdpercent> red2kic, thanks
[22:10] <erUSUL> viewer: yes is wrong
[22:10] <erUSUL> viewer: literal.literal
[22:10] <ZykoticK9> lucid_j, try opening the exe with file-roller.  or use wine...
[22:10] <moonunitzappa> is this still the right C++ complier?
[22:10] <moonunitzappa> sudo aptitude install build-essential
[22:10] <erUSUL> moonunitzappa: yes
[22:10] <moonunitzappa> i need anyone that works
[22:10] <moonunitzappa> ok ty erusul
[22:10] <Pici> viewer, erUSUL: no: literal.*literal
[22:10] <meganerd> lucid_j: you might try 7zip
[22:11] <erUSUL> Pici: ah; any number :)
[22:11] <ActionParsnip> lucid_j: or unp   you may need to get wine installed
[22:12] <lucid_j> ActionParsnip: I am not using wine..
[22:12] <moonunitzappa> The program 'aptitude' can be found in the following packages:
[22:12] <moonunitzappa>  * aptitude
[22:12] <moonunitzappa>  * aptitude-gtk
[22:12] <moonunitzappa> what one should i download?
[22:12] <moonunitzappa> install*
[22:12] <FloodBot1> moonunitzappa: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:12] <viewer> interesting, the find command must not use true regexp in its -name parameter, because ive been using * as the wildcard for ages, thats what had me confused
[22:12] <erUSUL> viewer: find uses globs in -name
[22:12] <ZykoticK9> moonunitzappa, aptitude is the cli version while gtk is GUI
[22:12] <erUSUL> viewer: gnu find has -regex if you want to use a regex
[22:12] <Pici> viewer: Theres a separate argument for doing regex matching.
[22:12] <red2kic> lucid_j: "file whatever.exe"
[22:12] <ActionParsnip> moonunitzappa: whichever you desire, aptitude-gtk will just give a gnome frontend to aptitude
[22:12] <marduuk>  i have a U10.10 vps and am trying to start kde remotely via xrdp
[22:13] <ubuntu_> ive downloaded air-crack how to use it?
[22:13] <viewer> erUSUL, Pici, i see, thanks both! (;
[22:13] <moonunitzappa> can i use both?    ive been learning thru term. how is the gui any diffrent?
[22:13] <ActionParsnip> ubuntu_: the guys in the backtrack channel will know
[22:13] <moonunitzappa> ubuntu_ theres also tons of youtube videos that help alot
[22:14] <red2kic> moonunitzappa: Silly rabbit, GUI are for the lazy kids!
[22:14] <aziz1> Hello every body
[22:14] <ubuntu_> i know that...but try only  the comand
[22:14] <erUSUL> but it has buttons to click ;P
[22:14] <tdcompaq> alas, seems to be working now ActionParsnip
[22:14] <aziz1> i m new here

[22:15] <tdcompaq> got me, didn't work last time I tried
[22:15] <ActionParsnip> moonunitzappa: install both and you can use either, just no at exactly the same time (due to package lock)
[22:15] <ActionParsnip> tdcompaq: ha, oh well glad its all nice :)
[22:15] <marduuk>  can anyone help?
[22:15] <moonunitzappa> ok thanks actionparsnip
[22:15] <stimpie> I have a hard disk password protected on my lenovo notebook, now my notebook has crashed and I try to boot with the hard drive (not as boot device) in my desktop. This results in lots of ata errors, any clues?
[22:15] <tdcompaq> ActionParsnip: when things go gray, what's happening?
[22:16] <ActionParsnip> tdcompaq: thats compiz telling you apps are hung. I thought you said you had server?
[22:16] <ubuntu_> thank again..
[22:16] <tdcompaq> ActionParsnip: no, wasn't me
[22:17] <ActionParsnip> tdcompaq: ahh, crossed wires then. nevermind :D
[22:17] <tdcompaq> ActionParsnip: Is there a way to manage that so it doesn't bog everything down?
[22:17] <NecrocyberDark> somebody here already get install SqlServer 2005 on Ubuntu?
[22:17] <ActionParsnip> !sql
[22:17] <ActionParsnip> !mysql
[22:18] <wthpr0> is there anyway to remove all files from a program with aptitude (apt-get) ?
[22:18] <erUSUL> NecrocyberDark: SqlServer 2005 is a windows program. install a linux database server. there are dozens
[22:18] <erUSUL> wthpr0: aptitude purge
[22:18] <ActionParsnip> wthpr0: sudo apt-get --purge remove packagename
[22:19] <wthpr0> or is it posebale to remove the record of the packade ever been installed
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> wthpr0: if the package is already removed you can run:  sudo dpkg -P packagename
[22:19] <wthpr0> erUSUL, ActionParsnip: no none of those work
[22:19] <NecrocyberDark> Yep i know but i think maybe is possible install sqlserver on ubuntu
[22:19] <tdcompaq> ActionParsnip: What do I need to do to activate wireless on my laptop?
[22:19] <erUSUL> wthpr0: if you do not explain what the problem is ...
[22:19] <erUSUL> wthpr0: purge wont touch files in your home foolder that app may have created
[22:19] <FunnyLookinHat> Does IPTables have all of it's rules saved in a specific file that I can edit ??
[22:19] <erUSUL> wthpr0: jfyi
[22:20] <jrib> FunnyLookinHat: no
[22:20] <jrib> !iptables > FunnyLookinHat
[22:20] <wthpr0> erUSUL: i messed up my apache2 folder /etc/apach2 so i want aptitude to put in the defult once again
[22:20] <ActionParsnip> wthpr0: if you run: dpkg -l | grep packagename   and see rc in the left colomn, you can dpkg -P then name and clean up the residual files
[22:20] <erUSUL> wthpr0: purge and reinstall apache2-common
[22:20] <NecrocyberDark> Indeed i have some questions not about sql but how the UDL work on linux
[22:20] <erUSUL> NecrocyberDark: what is UDL?
[22:21] <antoni> i have erroneously erased an usb hd via usb-creator. a few partitions are now one fat32 partition. afaik, no data was lost apart from that. unfortunately, testdisk doesn't find any of erased partitions. any ideas? gpart didn't help...
[22:21] <NecrocyberDark> the point is "how to use UDL's on Linux"
[22:22] <miles> Can anyone help me move a torrent file, i'm not sure where to put it.
[22:22] <cheryl> Hi Brains' I installed ubuntu's restricted extra's using Ubuntu Software Centre, but I'm still getting an error saying flash isn't installed! :(

[22:23] <FunnyLookinHat> jrib, after I add a rule should i have to restart iptables or anything for it to go into effect?
[22:23] <soreau> cheryl: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> tdcompaq: run:  sudo lshw -C network    you will see the wireless chip, you can websearch for guides based no the product line in the output
[22:24] <soreau> cheryl: After its installed, restart your browsers
[22:24] <jrib> FunnyLookinHat: no
[22:24] <bdesk> how do i look at the version of an apt-get thing?
[22:24] <cheryl> soreau, I could kiss you, apt-get rules, I should've known!! :)
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> cheryl: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[22:24] <bdesk> i did apt-cache search and i see that it exists

[22:25] <cheryl> ActionParsnip, When are you gonna accept my marriage proposal? :P
[22:25] <Petros> My Kindle just got set up as Read-only filesystem (while working in Calibre). According to various sources it seems to be Ubuntu-located issue. I tried to edit access rights in Nautilus, but without success. Any advice?
[22:26] <bdesk> ActionParsnip: thanks, that was perfect!

[22:30] <NecrocyberDark> nice
[22:30] <Nisstyre> ActionParsnip, nice pour :)
[22:31] <shaun_> hey
[22:31] <geekbri> is it possible to set a job to run every 4.5 hours?
[22:32] <YankDownUnder> geekbri, Have a play around with the AT settings mate.
[22:32] <soreau> ! cron | geekbri
[22:32] <YankDownUnder> geekbri, ...and cron...
[22:33] <geekbri> yeah sorry, my question was poorly worded... what i should have said is, i want to run a job every 4 hours on the half hour. so like 4:30am, 8:30am, etc etc.  I suspect that is 30 */4 * * *  but i dont know if that is correct.  Can anybody confirm?
[22:33] <ActionParsnip> geekbri: you can use gnome-schedule as a gui to cron. run:  gksudo gnome-schedule     to cron as root
[22:33] <soreau> geekbri: Read the guide ubottu gave
[22:33] <soreau> ActionParsnip: Oh nice
[22:33] <ActionParsnip> soreau: simple times
[22:33] <geekbri> well the second link is dead just so you know, but i'll read the first one
[22:35] <speedrunnerG55_> what is the best tool for making html documents?
[22:35] <geekbri> soreau, YankDownUnder, ActionParsnip: ty
[22:35] <eightiesk> how do i change the owner of a lot of folders at once?
[22:35] <ActionParsnip> np
[22:35] <speedrunnerG55_> is there an equivelent of dreamweaver?
[22:35] <ActionParsnip> speedrunnerG55_: bluefish maybe
[22:35] <erUSUL> eightiesk: a directory tree?
[22:36] <erUSUL> speedrunnerG55_: aptana studio?
[22:36] <eightiesk> yes
[22:36] <erUSUL> eightiesk: only the folders? or folders and files?
[22:36] <ActionParsnip> eightiesk: chown -R username:groupname foldername     willl run through the folder and apply the ownership
[22:36] <eightiesk> folders and files
[22:36] <flopex> has anyone tried 11.04 beta 1 ?
[22:36] <soreau> speedrunnerG55_: That depends on what you need. WYSIWYG editor is kompozer. There is also bluefish and even geany
[22:36] <erUSUL> eightiesk: then ActionParsnip is right
[22:37] <soreau> eightiesk: You can chown recursively with -R
[22:37] <speedrunnerG55_> what is like dreamwever?

[22:37] <speedrunnerG55_> adobe dreamweaver
[22:37] <soreau> speedrunnerG55_: dreamweaver is a WYSIWYG program like kompoer

[22:38] <ActionParsnip> speedrunnerG55_: http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Linux_software_equivalent_to_Windows_software
[22:38] <dtcrshr> but kompozer is years away from dreamweaver
[22:38] <dtcrshr> aptana, quanta+...
[22:38] <soreau> There is a pay-for one too but the name escapes me atm

[22:39] <YankDownUnder> Bluefish, NVU, Quanta+, Kompozer...or you can run Dreamweaver under WINE (especially with Crossover Office)
[22:39] <soreau> YankDownUnder: Does dreamweaver run in wine?
[22:39] <soreau> I dont think it did last I tried
[22:39] <miles> Can anyone help me move a torrent file, i'm not sure where to put it.
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> same its 215 quid
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> *shame
[22:40] <soreau> miles: Why are you trying to move it?
[22:40] <YankDownUnder> soreau, I've done it under WINE, Playonlinux and Crossover. Prefer Crossover...
[22:40] <eightiesk> so chown -R username:leon /home ??
[22:40] <miles> soreau: Its a game i downloaded, it put it self on the desktop and won't launch
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> miles: just open it with your torrent client,you dont need it in a specific folder
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> eightiesk: no
[22:40] <soreau> YankDownUnder: Dont Playonlinux and Crossover use wine?
[22:40] <miles> ActionParsnip: its already downloaded, the folder is what i need to move.
[22:41] <soreau> miles: Why are you trying to move it though?
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> eightiesk: sudo chown -R leon:leon /home       chowning /home is a REALLY bad idea
[22:41] <YankDownUnder> soreau, Yes, they do - however, each has a different "configuration" and each also use different MS libs, DLL's, etc etc etc...
[22:41] <soreau> miles: How will moving it help anything
[22:41] <soreau> YankDownUnder: I see
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> eightiesk: just chown the subfolder in /home, /home itself should be owned by root
[22:41] <miles> soreau: i figured it would, i dunno, the launch files aren't working.
[22:41] <kruk> Hello how to install the plugin in Kate?
[22:41] <soreau> miles: Is it a game for linux?
[22:42] <miles> soreau: yes its amneisa.
[22:42] <soreau> miles: Ah, try running it from your terminal
[22:42] <soreau> miles: That game is a bit demanding, you have to make sure your graphics drivers are willing
[22:42] <eightiesk> ActionParsnip, i need to own all the files in my home folder.
[22:43] <miles> soreau: it should be fine, but think  you could help me with it, i'm never good with the terminal. i got Teamviewer going.
[22:43] <soreau> eightiesk: As you normal user: sudo chown -R $USER $HOME
[22:43] <eightiesk> ActionParsnip, like my user, i coppyed files from a mac to save them and reload snow leopard
[22:43] <ActionParsnip> eightiesk: then use /home/leon   not /home
[22:43] <soreau> miles: Open a terminal and run $HOME/Desktop/Amnesia/Amnesia.bin or whatever its called
[22:43] <slipp3d> is there a ppa that will get me newer version of evolution?  I know that evolution is due to become version three soon ... and i'm still using 2.3

[22:44] <tdcompaq> is there a good gui frontend for mysql?
[22:44] <eightiesk> ActionParsnip, the folder says leon but it says user not found
[22:44] <soreau> eightiesk: You can run that command as your normal user. $USER and $HOME will expand to the appropriate values
[22:44] <sammysnake> tdcompaq: phpmyadmin webbased, navcat for windows gui
[22:45] <YankDownUnder> tdcompaq, Though it's "not supported", I use Webmin for my clients as a front-end for MySQL and the likes...
[22:45] <soreau> eightiesk: See with this command: echo $USER
[22:45] <tdcompaq> sammysnake: thanks. phpmyadmin runs on linux?
[22:45] <sammysnake> php based
[22:45] <tdcompaq> ok
[22:45] <ActionParsnip> eightiesk: if you run:   whoami   it will give you your username

[22:46] <ActionParsnip> eightiesk:  sudo chown -R $USER:$USER $HOME

[22:53] <erUSUL> !gpgerr
[22:53] <saal7193> soreau,  i mean is there a way to delete all those file at once?
[22:53] <soreau> desturrr: Make sure you dont have any additional repos installed in sys>admin>software properties
[22:53] <DasEi> desturrr: your terminal should give a number, pull that key
[22:53] <soreau> saal7193: Sure but I dont know what you are currently using to find them with
[22:54] <desturrr> http://paste.ubuntu.com/589936/
[22:54] <desturrr> guys
[22:54] <desturrr> there are bunch of keys
[22:54] <soreau> saal7193: If you are using find, you can tell it to run a command on each file, such as rm
[22:54] <DasEi> desturrr: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys
[22:54] <tdcompaq> can someone help me get my laptop wifi running?
[22:54] <DasEi> desturrr: and append the numbers, seperated by space
[22:54] <soreau> tdcompaq: What wifi chip is it?
[22:54] <desturrr> after this command
[22:55] <saal7193> soreau,  i'm using 'search for files' but i'll try anything that works
[22:55] <desturrr> adding the number would be okey ?
[22:55] <tdcompaq> good question, not sure ... will see if I can look up

[22:56] <cg2916> how to i make it so that GRUB starts with the menu as default instead of the command line?
[22:56] <DasEi> desturrr: on the not found ones, disable them in /etc/apt/sources.list
[22:57] <saal7193> thank you soreau
[22:57] <DasEi> cg2916: edit /etc/default/grub,  self-explanatory
[22:57] <cg2916> DasEi: ok
[22:57] <DasEi> cg2916: then sudo update-grub
[22:57] <cg2916> DasEi: got it
[22:58] <soreau> saal7193: After you get that out putting the right files, then use find /some/path -name *somestring* -exec rm '{}' \;
[22:58] <soreau> jessejesse: What card is it?
[22:59] <saal7193> soreau,  ok thanks so much

[23:04] <desturrr> dasei , you have mentioned that, the ones that is not found, you should remove from sources.list , but i can not find which ones to remove
[23:04] <soreau> jessejesse: You need to install xserver-xorg-video-ati

[23:13] <dak1n1> hi again. Is there a way to view the services that start on boot? (equivalent of 'chkconfig --list')
[23:13] <ubuntuguy> Excess me bas?
[23:13] <miles> soreau: so chmod didn't change anything. i'm not sure why, can't even find these binary files.
[23:14] <pr0xy> How do I add space to my Ubuntu partition? Ubuntu is the only OS I have installed, and I can't figure out how to add unallocated space to my partition
[23:14] <bastidrazor> ubuntuguy: that is how you would make a new Downloads folder. mkdir ~/Downloads
[23:14] <ubuntuguy> I'm so confused, is that a terminal code?
[23:14] <soreau> jessejesse: Wow, something is wrong. Does lsmod|grep radeon show the radoen module loaded?
[23:15] <mmkassem> After restarting 11.04, I am getting "/ is not ready yet or is not present" at booting. When I press M, I find / is already mounted and I can access the files but it is not loading the OS.
[23:15] <DasEi> desturrr: sry, looking now
[23:15] <apow> dak1n1: check /etc/init/*.conf
[23:15] <jessejesse> soreau: yeah, the module is loaded
[23:15] <bastidrazor> ubuntuguy: Click Places > Home Folder then right click > new folder > left click the new folder then rename it
[23:16] <MK`> what does ~ mean in the terminal for directories? does it substitute your home directory?
[23:16] <bastidrazor> MK`: yes
[23:16] <soreau> jessejesse: Ah, here we go:  [drm] VGACON disable radeon kernel modesetting.
[23:16] <MK`> Ah, interesting.

[23:47] <[snake]> how do you use jack in ubuntu 10.10
[23:47] <Smex> mickster04, déjà fait, je voulais juste checker un truc :)
[23:47] <mickster04> sorry Smex i only speak english and Deutsch
[23:47] <mickster04> that's English*
[23:48] <[snake]> Smex, !fr
[23:48] <maco> !fr | Smex
[23:48] <[snake]> :P yeah that
[23:48] <mickster04> :D
[23:48] <miles> I just downloaded a gig of game for nothing!
[23:48] <miles> It won't even work.
[23:48] <[snake]> miles, Urban Terror?
[23:48] <Smex> mickster04, I know what you said, I wanted to just check something :>
[23:48] <miles> Amnesia
[23:49] <glyphrider> got intrigued by all this talk of #radeon... what's the status of the open-source driver in #ubuntu? is it "there" or am I looking at a build?
[23:49] <Smex> no, I don't need a help. Thanks anyway & sorry for disturb :]
[23:49] <miles> I tried everything i could, it can't use the binaries
[23:49] <[snake]> miles, oh nvm, Urban terror was also one gig for me..
[23:49] <soreau> glyphrider: the gallium drive makes its debut in 11.04. This means opengl 2.1 for older radeons
[23:49] <soreau> driver*
[23:50] <[snake]> how do you use jack audio in ubuntu 10.10
[23:50] <glyphrider> thx, soreau.
[23:50] <soreau> miles: I think you are just doing it wrong
[23:50] <miles> Then teamviewer me and try i bet it wont work.
[23:50] <soreau> [snake]: install qjackctl
[23:50] <[snake]> miles, do you get a message that says it can't execute?
[23:50] <mickster04> miles: what binaries?
[23:51] <[snake]> miles, you may have to right click > permissions > allow executing
[23:51] <miles> Binary files along with the launcher and game they are there, but they won't work.
[23:51] <miles> I made sure there excutable
[23:51] <mickster04> miles: error messages?
[23:52] <mickster04> miles: have you tried using terminal to start them?
[23:52] <[snake]> miles, and make sure it's the correct bit for your machine [64-bit, or 32-bit]
[23:52] <kidko> Hey all, anybody know a thing or two about troubleshooting drives that won't mount?
[23:52] <ejay_> hi, do i have to defragment before installing ubuntu alongside my windows operating system
[23:52] <mickster04> kidko: if you give us error messages and other details, maybe
[23:52] <miles> bash: /home/miles/Desktop/Amnesia The Dark Descent/Launcher.bin64: cannot execute binary file
[23:52] <Tech_> hello
[23:52] <mickster04> ejay_: ot's recommandable
[23:52] <AndroUser> hello
[23:52] <mickster04> miles: are you using a 64bit system?
[23:52] <soreau> miles: Are you running 64 bit version of ubuntu?
[23:52] <ejay_> ok, but will it mess up my computer
[23:52] <mickster04> ejay_: its*
[23:52] <miles> Pretty sure, gimmie a sec
[23:53] <[snake]> soreau, I already have that package.
[23:53] <Tech_> it is very recommended
[23:53] <mickster04> ejay_: what why would it? has defragging ever broken oyour  system before?
[23:53] <soreau> miles: Its pretty important information to know if your OS is 32 or 64 bits
[23:53] <Tech_> Are you defragmenting now
[23:53] <soreau> [snake]: So start jack and be happy?
[23:53] <mythomaniac> so anyone here try ubuntu 11.04 yet?
[23:53] <soreau> ! 11.04 | mythomaniac
[23:53] <maco> !natty | mythomaniac
[23:53] <mickster04> !11.04
[23:53] <mickster04> lol
[23:53] <ejay_> i mean if i didnt defrag and installed ubuntu
[23:53] <flopex> yeah I already tried it, don't like it that much
[23:54] <miles> >.> I am...not, running 64 bit...
[23:54] <mythomaniac> flopex: why is that?
[23:54] <miles> Thats dumb, i downloaded a gig, of            NOTHING
[23:54] <Tech_> ^4 bit or 32 bit
[23:54] <kidko> mickster04: I've had this external harddrive for a few years. It just started giving me trouble this afternoon... trying to open a file on it froze Thunar, and I couldn't unmount the drive (despite there being nothing using it, according to lsof). I tried restarting, and now I can't re-mount it. http://pastebin.com/dk78srTu
[23:54] <flopex> well, the unity thing sucks
[23:54] <mickster04> ejay_: oh, it'll be slower because ubuntu will probably try to move files about so it can get space on th hdd
[23:54] <MC8> Howdy, is there a command to uninstall all non-default packages, or do I have to reinstall ubuntu and/or do it manually?
[23:54] <Tech_> 64 bit or 32 bit
[23:54] <soreau> miles: It is no wonder then, that your os is telling you it cant run a binary built for 64bit version of linux
[23:54] <[snake]> soreau, I click on JACK, and it says: 18:53:16.252 Could not open ALSA sequencer as a client. ALSA MIDI patchbay will be not available.
[23:54] <[snake]> ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory
[23:54] <[snake]> Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory
[23:54] <[snake]> Cannot connect to server socket
[23:54] <[snake]> jack server is not running or cannot be started
[23:54] <FloodBot1> [snake]: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:54] <mythomaniac> flopex: well you can disable that through gdm
[23:54] <[snake]> oops :P
[23:55] <flopex> yeah, I did but for the final release it wont be available
[23:55] <maco> [snake]: try #ubuntustudio maybe?
[23:55] <ejay_> does it matter between 32 and 64 bit os?
[23:55] <Tech_> I dont think it matters between 64 bit and 32 bit
[23:55] <mythomaniac> flopex: other then that... what do you think of it?
[23:55] <soreau> [snake]: Close all other apps before trying
[23:55] <miles> soreau: Is there anyhting i can do to make it run on 32.
[23:55] <mickster04> ejay_: yea, if your processor is not 64bit you can't run a 64bit OS
[23:55] <soreau> miles: No.
[23:55] <kidko> mickster04: A couple googles for "Unhandled sense code" suggests that my harddrive is failing, but only the EXT3 partition is having problems. There's a FAT32 on it that mounts just fine.
[23:55] <flopex> I do like the test drive app option
[23:55] <DasEi> ejay_: not really, use pae on 32, if more than 4 gig ram (add video!)
[23:55] <DasEi> !pae
[23:55] <brightspark> ejay: only if you have an unusually high amount of ram
[23:55] <[snake]> soreau, come to think of it, it says connection kit... does it have to connect to a server, which I also have to put up?
[23:56] <miles> Thats just....
[23:56] <mythomaniac> flopex: is that like guest account?
[23:56] <miles> ARGH >.<
[23:56] <mythomaniac> sup DasEi
[23:56] <[snake]> soreau, plus the output says no server :P
[23:56] <Tech_> What operatig syestem are you using now Xp, Vista 7 or mac
[23:56] <flopex> no, test drive lets you run programs before installing them. Pretty cool feature
[23:56] <mythomaniac> flopex: yeah that sounds cool
[23:56] <soreau> [snake]: I assume jackd is installed?
[23:56] <ejay_> xp
[23:56] <DasEi> Tech_: linux by chance, guess which distro ..
[23:57] <mythomaniac> flopex: the reason why i ask... is because... i was thinking on installing ubuntu 11.04 for a client....
[23:57] <mythomaniac> DasEi: i would say debian proper... or testing...
[23:57] <Tech_> what are you installing 10 or 11.04 beta
[23:57] <[snake]> soreau, yep, it's a dependency.
[23:57] <ejay_> 10.10
[23:57] <{qp}> mythomaniac: ubuntu 11.04 is not a good option for a client or for commont desktop use
[23:57] <flopex> I don't think it's recommended, it's still a little bit buggy
[23:57] <Tech_> okay
[23:58] <mythomaniac> {qp}: why is that?
[23:58] <Tech_> hold on i have to check something
[23:58] <soreau> [snake]: You have to exit all other applications before running qjackctl to start jack server
[23:58] <ejay_> ok
[23:58] <DasEi> Tech_ using stable for host, play n mess around in vm's
[23:58] <mickster04> !11.04
[23:58] <[snake]> soreau, oooohhh... ok
[23:58] <DasEi> !virtual | Tech_
[23:58] <miles> New problem, how can i connect to my network attached HDD
[23:58]  * mythomaniac cries...
[23:59] <mythomaniac> well...
[23:59] <anteater_sa> miles: samba?
[23:59] <miles> anteater_sa: Hmm?
[23:59] <mythomaniac> that was a wasted one hour torrent d/l
[23:59] <mythomaniac> back ot 10.4 or something...
[23:59] <Tech_> Okay it does not make on a difference between 10.10 and 11.04 beta
[23:59] <mythomaniac> thanks guys...
[23:59] <DasEi> mythomaniac: what happened ?
[23:59] <{qp}> mythomaniac: because it is not the final version yet
