| kamesh | Hi all, I am planning to install ubuntu in a recently bought acer laptop. I burned factory default disc according to acer e-recovery management. But when I try and restore the system to facory defaults it does not ask me any questions regarding partioning which windows usually asks. It just installs fresh windows on the full harddisk. Can any one let me know how I can partitions harddisk and install windows along with Ubuntu | 00:09 |
| demonspork | kamesh, just start the Ubuntu installation, it will give you a choice to resize the windows partition to fit Ubuntu | 00:10 |
| demonspork | kamesh, you can also choose "Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Computer Management>Disk Management and resize the Windows partition from there | 00:11 |

| zelev | hi everyone...will there be a ppa for upgrading to gnome3 on 10.10? thanks... | 00:13 |

| IdleOne | yuskhanzab: gyachi PPA https://launchpad.net/~loell/+archive/ppa | 00:15 |
| shcherbak | zelev: I can even tell you that forcing 11.04 ppa to 10.10 offers some bad expirience. Next step Natty ;) | 00:15 |
| yuskhanzab | have anyone try in maverick? | 00:16 |
| IdleOne | yuskhanzab: doesn't appear to be a package for 10.10 | 00:16 |
| ubuntu4shane | soreau: not using the fglrx drivers and it was running around 98F when with fglrx it runs at about under 70 | 00:16 |
| yuskhanzab | owh | 00:16 |

| Jon-- | Been trying to get assistance in #deluge for a long time now (several hours). I'm taking my question here. I know this is not directly related to Ubuntu: My download speed is stuck at 0.00? Deluge 1.3.0 from PPA ppa:deluge-team/ppa on Ubuntu 10.04. Port is forwarded, doing a port check gets green check mark. | 00:17 |
| shcherbak | zelev: hm, Alfa with broken compiz was quite fast, did you try classic session? | 00:18 |

| ubuntu4shane | Jon--: is anyone seeding? I use deluge, but didn't mess around with port forwarding or anything just opened it up and it works | 00:18 |
| Jon-- | ubuntu4shane, There should be at least 40 seeders on one of these. | 00:18 |
| zelev | shcherbak: I upgraded from 10.10...it sucked...everything was slow in comparison to 10.10...i ditched it very fast | 00:19 |

| DaGeek247 | and not just open up package manager every now and then | 00:51 |

| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 00:52 |
| DaGeek247 | upDATE not upGRADE lol. | 00:52 |
| DaGeek247 | anyone know how? | 00:52 |
| Jon-- | DaGeek247, By update you mean update the list of packages, not install or replace packages you already have with latest versions? | 00:53 |
| stercor | meganerd: Stuck it in the USB port. | 00:53 |
| shcherbak | stercor: Wonder why gid is 0, apparently fat is more wired then i thought. | 00:54 |
| DaGeek247 | Jon, no i want it to like check for available upgrades everytime i start up, then automaticly download and install any available ones. | 00:54 |

| Jordan_U | inaxio: I was disconnected so in case you didn't get this before: Can you run "fsck /dev/sda6" again, pastebin the output, then run "dmesg" and paste its output as well? | 00:54 |
| DaGeek247 | not just the list | 00:54 |
| Jon-- | DaGeek247, "update" means update the list of software packages you have, find what the latest versions are. "upgrade" means upgrade your software, keep it up to date. "dist-upgrade" means upgrade your distribution, ie go from Ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10 | 00:55 |
| meganerd | stercor: have you tried unmounting it manually, then remounting it manually? | 00:55 |
| Jon-- | Just so you have a reference ^ | 00:55 |
| Kuwanger | I have a simple question. If there's two packages that confict each other (say libavcodec52 and libavcodec-extra-52) and I'd like to replace one with the other, is there an easy way to do that? I ask because if I try to remove the installed one, a lot of other packages are marked for uninstall and I can't setup to install the other one without resulting in a conflict. | 00:55 |
| Jon-- | DaGeek247, You could create a script that updated for you and run it on boot, but you would have to give it your password. | 00:55 |
| Jon-- | Or perhaps create a cron job | 00:55 |
| fishscene | Does anyone know how to configure VSFTP? or does it just naturally enable full read/write access to the entire file system by any user? | 00:55 |
| inaxio | Jordan_U: Both in one thing http://pastebin.com/9WiJ5BRd | 00:56 |
| DaGeek247 | how would i do that? sudo -su requires user input no matter what | 00:56 |
| Jon-- | That's the point.. ;) | 00:56 |
| Jon-- | Is there a reason you need it automated? | 00:56 |
| brightspark | Jon-- form the first link in the ubottu post: "An upgrade is the process of going from an earlier version of Ubuntu to a newer version of Ubuntu with an installed system. An example of this would be going from Ubuntu 7.10 to Ubuntu 8.04 LTS." | 00:56 |
| brightspark | *from | 00:56 |
| DaGeek247 | nah, i just think it would be handy | 00:57 |
| meganerd | fishscene: I just scp/sftp these days, I left ftp behind nearly a decade ago | 00:57 |
| Jon-- | brightspark, I was refering to the fact that "sudo apt-get upgrade" does not upgrade your distro, it upgrades your packages to latest version. | 00:57 |
| superlou | Has anyone ever had there harddisk fill to 100% by itself? Stuck in command line now since don't have enough free space to startx. Waiting for a "du -sk * | sort -rn" to finish. Open to any tips :) | 00:57 |
| Jon-- | brightspark, and apt-get update gets the latest package list from the internets so you know what is new.. | 00:57 |
| czechel | hallo | 00:57 |
| fishscene | meganerd, this was more on the server side :P | 00:57 |
| Jon-- | DaGeek247, You can probably make a cronjob and have it automatically run as sudo. | 00:58 |
| Jon-- | DaGeek247, How experienced of a linux user are you? | 00:58 |
| Jordan_U | superlou: First place to look is usually /var/log/ | 00:58 |
| DaGeek247 | um, i know my way around the command line, in what way? | 00:58 |
| shcherbak | superlou: /tmp and /var like making life hard. | 00:59 |
| superlou | hmm | 00:59 |
| superlou | du says my /media is very large | 00:59 |
| brightspark | Jon--: right. Actually, when he types in "!update", that's probably not the info the bot should return. | 01:00 |
| superlou | 93G. Son of a gun. My home is 31G and it's a 140G drive. Sounds like the bad guys in media. | 01:00 |
| superlou | Though i thought media was symbolic links to other stuff | 01:00 |
| Jon-- | DaGeek247, Look into cron. You can make a "root" cron that is run with elevated privileges. You may use this to update your machine automatically every X minutes, hours, whatever. | 01:00 |
| meganerd | fishscene: yup, me too | 01:00 |
| Jon-- | !cron | DaGeek247 | 01:01 |
| ubottu | DaGeek247: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto - There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm | 01:01 |
| meganerd | fishscene: at work we have a very dim view of ftp | 01:01 |
| brightspark | superlou: do you have a C: drive (like from dual-booting)? That's why my /media folder is huge. | 01:01 |
| superlou | nope, just ubuntu | 01:01 |
| tjiggi_fo | DaGeek247, you can set Update Manager to run every day - what more do you want? | 01:01 |
| superlou | it looks like media is full of Backups from simplebackup | 01:01 |
| superlou | oy. I had simple backup configured to backup to a raid array automatically | 01:02 |
| superlou | but the raid doesn't start automatically in ubuntu for some reason | 01:02 |
| superlou | so it looks like whenever i haven't given ubuntu credentials to assemble root, backups are going in there | 01:02 |
| DaGeek247 | thanks Jon-- | 01:02 |
| inaxio | Jordan_U: Any idea? | 01:03 |
| superlou | brightspark, does it make sense to have an SRAID1 folder in media? | 01:03 |
| meganerd | superlou: how did you build the RAID array? | 01:04 |
| superlou | it doesn't look like my real RAID which has a bunch of other files. This one just has backups | 01:04 |
| superlou | meganerd, mdadm | 01:04 |
| meganerd | I have two arrays that mount automatically at home | 01:04 |
| grishnav | Hey everyone -- does Ubuntu's ifup system not work with IPv6 on aliases? How can I add an IPv6 address to an existing interface that already has an IPv4 address "The Ubuntu Way"? | 01:04 |
| brightspark | I don't know too much about RAID; /media only gets used on my machine as the mountpoint for C:. | 01:04 |
| meganerd | grishnav: ip addr add | 01:04 |
| grishnav | meganerd: yes, I could post-up that in /etc/network/interfaces, but it seems hackish | 01:05 |
| superlou | meganerd, nice. For some reason mine show up in computer and when i double click the raid icon, it prompts for admin password | 01:05 |
| superlou | Then shows up nicely | 01:05 |
| meganerd | ip addr is replacing ifconfig, ifup should be using /etc/network/interfaces, if it is not then that is a bug | 01:05 |
| superlou | ls | 01:06 |
| grishnav | meganerd: I'm aware. I configured the IP with ip, and it's working. I want to automate it on startup. I tried this, but no joy: http://pastebin.com/Cpkv46Dn | 01:06 |
| grishnav | it barfs, leaving a /48 assigend to the card | 01:07 |
| Jon-- | DaGeek247, It's a bit challenging if you have trouble PM me. | 01:07 |
| grishnav | er, interface, rather | 01:07 |
| meganerd | superlou: sounds like permissions, before you click on the array in computer, does it show as mounted with a "df -h" at the command line? | 01:07 |
| binox | hi all, i apologize this is my first time ever in IRC and I have a twofold question. I am not sure of etiquette here, can i just ask | 01:07 |
| superlou | meganerd, nope | 01:07 |
| iostream | binox: "don't ask to ask" | 01:07 |
| noparkinghere | just ask ː) | 01:07 |
| superlou | binox, go for it :) | 01:07 |
| binox | lol, sorry | 01:07 |
| binox | well i am a linux noob, but have maverick installed on two laptops succesfully. | 01:08 |
| binox | i love it. | 01:08 |
| meganerd | superlou: cat /proc/mdstat | 01:08 |
| brightspark | I'm using CompizConfig with the edge-binding commands- could someone please explain how to increase the size of the 'corner' regions? | 01:08 |
| superlou | meganerd, will do . Restarting. Got down to 92% by removing a backup. Hopefully can boot to GUI now | 01:09 |
| Jon-- | DaGeek247, Essentially: install cron, do a sudo crontab -e, read guide to see how to format your line, tell it to execute a script you have somewhere (perhaps somewhere in /root/ is a good idea so only sudo users can see it), have the script contain something like 'apt-get update; apt-get upgrade -y;' | 01:09 |
| binox | on my tablet i have a dual boot with xp, on the xp partition i installed litestep, now i cant even get to the splash. can i alter files in ubuntu to fix windows bootup by changing the shell files | 01:09 |
| sherorox | i just downloaded and extracted firefox-4.0.tar.bz2. When I go to permissions to let it run as an executable, it kind of lags idk. Every time I click on the extracted file, it just shows the files inside( doesn't execute) | 01:09 |

| ubottu | Firefox 4 is the current stable version of Firefox.

| superlou_ | meganerd, sorry, I'm new to this, which log would you recommend? I'm peering through /var/logs | 01:21 |
| Jordan_U | binox: Yes, ##windows is the correct place to ask. | 01:21 |
| Chilaquiles | Jordan_U: Why did you ask? | 01:22 |
| rance | ok, one more script question and I think I've got it nailed down. Suppose a bash script needs to be started with sudo how does the script check to see that it was? id returns the uid of the user and not 0 even after called by sudo. | 01:22 |
| Harkins | I was using Ubuntu 10.10 with a /boot and encrypted /. A partition manager erased the /boot partition, but / is fine. I have a LiveCD, what's the safest way to recreate and repopulate /boot? | 01:23 |
| binox | noparking: im asking if i can use ubuntu to move system files in windows, windows wont start, im in ubuntu. wondering if i move shell files in the windows files on ubuntu. | 01:23 |
| binox | repeat i am using ubuntu | 01:23 |
| Jordan_U | Chilaquiles: Because something caused Ubuntu to go from a state where it was booting properly to one where it is not. I'm assuming that it was a kernel update, and I suspect that you may have installed third party packages as well. | 01:23 |
| binox | i just want to know if i alter the files while in ubuntu will those changes translate to windows. | 01:24 |
| iostream | binox: if you change something on disk, these changes will exists no matter which OS you are running | 01:24 |
| Jordan_U | binox: You can move Windows files from Ubuntu. | 01:24 |
| rance | binox: I use ubuntu to "fix" windows all the time. as long as you mount the disk with the ntfs partition in read-write mode, then changes will be copied to windows on reboot | 01:24 |
| shcherbak | binox: Yes, you can, but it will not help (most likely). | 01:25 |
| Chilaquiles | ok Jordan_U, is there any way to fix this? | 01:25 |
| rance | warning old versions of ubuntu had some flaky ntfs write support | 01:25 |

| Chilaquiles | Jordan_U: I already did, they all show the same | 01:26 |
| Chilaquiles | Jordan_U: I have even selected the ones that say safe mode | 01:26 |

| inaxio | Jordan_U: did it ASAP, same response | 01:28 |
| Jordan_U | inaxio: OK. Assuming you still haven't done anything to try to mount the partition can you pastebin your dmesg again? | 01:28 |
| shcherbak | hm, how to make wine to use eth1 and only eth1 (rest to use eth0 and only eth0)? | 01:28 |
| binox | i am going to try #windows, if they are clueless im coming back.. ty | 01:29 |
| meganerd | grishnav: so you just add a second static stanza | 01:29 |
| grishnav | yep, with inet6 instead of inet, of course | 01:29 |
| inaxio | Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/trFthg4c | 01:29 |
| Jordan_U | inaxio: I didn't think that Ubuntu LiveCD's tried to automatically mount partitions at boot, but it appears that a mount was attempted from your last dmesg. | 01:29 |
| meganerd | grishnav: seems obvious but I can see forgetting that | 01:29 |
| grishnav | :P | 01:29 |
| grishnav | THANKS #UBUNTU <3 | 01:30 |
| meganerd | grishnav: good to know. I suspect I am going to refamiliarize myself ipv6 again sometime soon | 01:30 |
| inaxio | Jordan_U: I did try to mount, i think, last time | 01:30 |
| Jordan_U | inaxio: But not this most recent time? | 01:30 |
| inaxio | Jordan_U: Nope. | 01:30 |
| Chilaquiles | Jordan_U: any suggestions? | 01:30 |
| Jordan_U | inaxio: I see an attempted mount again. I would recommend trying to recover with a GRML liveCD, as it has an option specifically to prevent any attempt to write to any drive at boot. | 01:31 |
| Jordan_U | inaxio: If you want to do that though we should move the discussion to #grml. | 01:31 |
| demonspork | I just installed Ubuntu on a complety new computer with 7 hard drives. I installed Ubuntu on the last hard drive by connection /dev/sdg and now whenever I try to start the computer it just comes up to a blinking _ rather than starting Ubuntu. I have tried reinstalling but to no avail and I have changed the boot order and boot devices in the BIOS extensively and still no change. | 01:32 |
| inaxio | Jordan_U: Well is there anything else i can try? | 01:32 |
| demonspork | I even specified the first /dev/sda as the device for the bootloader once, still no go | 01:32 |
| Jordan_U | demonspork: Despite your changing of the boot order those symptoms almost always mean that you're not booting from a drive with grub installed. | 01:33 |
| Jordan_U | demonspork: You can try installing grub to all drives or removing all but the drive you want to boot. | 01:33 |
| demonspork | Jordan_U, so does that mean that the BIOS is trying to boot from a hard drive that doesn't have grub? I even changed the drive to be the only one that the BIOS would accept as a boot device, still no go | 01:34 |
| Jordan_U | inaxio: Nothing that I can think of to try from an Ubuntu LiveCD. | 01:34 |
| Jordan_U | demonspork: Correct. | 01:34 |
| superlou | meganerd, no big info in the logs. There's a mdadm[1812]: NewArray event detected on md device /dev/md0 every now and then | 01:34 |
| inaxio | Jordan_U: well, do you know what the problem might be? | 01:34 |
| Jordan_U | demonspork: It's also very likely that the drive that you *think* has grub installed is not really the one that does. | 01:34 |
| Jordan_U | demonspork: Boot info script: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 should clear up what drives have what bootloaders. | 01:35 |

| sdobz | 1004 is the userid of minecraft | 01:39 |
| Chilaquiles | that the last thing I did | 01:39 |
| Jordan_U | Chilaquiles: There is no single answer to "How to fix Ubuntu". First we need to know precisely it's broken, which is what soreau is trying to figure out by asking you to try booting from a LiveCD. | 01:39 |
| soreau | Chilaquiles: Did you try and older kernel like Jordan_U suggested? | 01:39 |
| Chilaquiles | as I said | 01:40 |

| nit-wit | Derpie, do you have anything else like a thumb | 01:57 |
| EmuAlert | What is the default pdf viewer? | 01:58 |
| Derpie | yes but its only 1gb big | 01:58 |
| nit-wit | Derpie, that is big enough for a regular Ubuntu ISO | 01:58 |
| thefam | from my understanding litestep is something users also use through wine | 01:58 |
| DaGeek247 | !pdf | EmuAlert | 01:58 |
| ubottu | EmuAlert: pdf is the Portable Document Format created by Adobe; viewable in GNU/Linux with xpdf/kpdf/okular/evince, and also adobe reader (free download, but closed source) | 01:58 |
| nit-wit | Derpie, use unetbootin to load it with a live cd ISO | 01:59 |
| doomrobo | why are all 64-bit anythings called *amd64* even if I have an Intel? | 01:59 |
| thefam | i think i may need a quick IRC lesson, i am on xchat-gnome. can i only access freenode through here | 01:59 |
| tsimpson | dooglus: because AMD wrote the standard the processors use, rather than Intel | 01:59 |
| WebWeasel | doomrobo: It's because they are using AMDs instruction set. | 01:59 |
| === Mabus_ is now known as \Mabus | ||
| Derpie | hmm ok i thought the guide i read said that i had to have a flash drive at least 2 gbs big | 02:00 |
| doomrobo | Exactly what I thought | 02:00 |
| thefam | i think i may need to find the litestep channel or will freenode get me anywhere i need to go | 02:00 |
| ubuntu | how put the output program in chat? | 02:00 |
| doomrobo | tsimpson Intel wrote the x86 instruction set, did they not? | 02:00 |
| thefam | i apologize for my ignorance | 02:00 |
| ubuntu | with /exec | 02:00 |
| tsimpson | doomrobo: yes | 02:00 |
| nit-wit | Derpie, the ISO is about 700mib if you wanted a persistent then more gigs would be good, for install your set. | 02:00 |
| doomrobo | ok | 02:01 |
| tsimpson | doomrobo: Intel did write a 64bit one too, but AMD won this time | 02:01 |
| Caceeous | I am having trouble with my xorg.conf file; It doesn't support opengl and the nvidia version is broken | 02:01 |
| abiss27 | guys is it safe to delete files from my temp folder? | 02:01 |
| * doomrobo shakes his fist at AMD. Next time I'll get you, AMD. Next time | 02:01 | |
| WebWeasel | Sometimes you see it referred to as x86_64 too. Same thing. | 02:01 |
| Derpie | ok i will go try it out and if i need help come back | 02:01 |
| yuskhanzab | how to know my system amd64 or i386? | 02:01 |
| tsimpson | doomrobo: oddly, the AMD instruction set is closer to the x86 instruction set than the Intel version... | 02:02 |
| doomrobo | interesting | 02:02 |
| tsimpson | which is why it won | 02:02 |
| emet | hello | 02:02 |
| Caceeous | hello | 02:02 |
| doomrobo | Does anyone know how to check what CPU instruction set ur running? | 02:03 |
| yuskhanzab | what is my system amd64 or i386? | 02:03 |
| emet | how are you doing? | 02:03 |
| \Mabus | hrm, while i like running live off a usb drive its having issues with installing packages via terminal | 02:03 |
| nit-wit | met do you have a question | 02:03 |
| nit-wit | emet, | 02:03 |
| Caceeous | I am having trouble with my xorg.conf file; It doesn't support opengl and the nvidia version is broken | 02:03 |
| emet | nit-wit: I asked a question :) | 02:03 |
| WebWeasel | less /proc/cpuinfo if you see a lm in the flags then it has 64 bit instructions. | 02:04 |
| tsimpson | doomrobo: I think "uname -p" should give you a hint | 02:04 |
| thefam | i found the litestep channel, thanks all , i might be back ubuntu rules | 02:04 |
| nit-wit | ;( | 02:04 |

| btemple | How do I share a connection from my wlan cartd to my ethernet card? | 02:56 |
| btemple | hello? | 02:57 |
| soreau | btemple: The only way Ive got it to work is with masquerading or connection bridging | 02:57 |
| hiexpo | kawohi, you have one open just close it | 02:57 |
| Seven_Six_Two | btemple, I'm not a networking wizard, but you have to set up static ip addresses for each card, and then modify the routing tables. There are very good online walkthroughs. | 02:57 |
| soreau | btemple: But supposedly, you can use the network manager gui | 02:58 |
| kawohi | nah I don | 02:58 |
| kawohi | t anything open except the update manager which is what saying the message. | 02:58 |
| Seven_Six_Two | soreau, I have tried that and failed miserably. | 02:58 |
| soreau | Seven_Six_Two: Tried what? | 02:58 |
| Seven_Six_Two | soreau, using the network manager gui to share an internet connection | 02:59 |

| sgt-hagger | from the panel# | 03:00 |
| Seven_Six_Two | sgt-hagger, are you in gnome? | 03:00 |
| \Mabus | lol how odd, i do the partitions manually, it still yells at me, i go back and forth a few times then just hit auto and it accepts it | 03:00 |
| iszak | jrib, would be nice to see the apt-fast implementation in the repo :( oh well | 03:00 |
| Chubcorp | I have a question regarding my computer recognizing the battery. | 03:00 |
| rww | I for one prefer our non-mirror-hammering overlords. | 03:00 |
| hiexpo | sgt-hagger, was itupon a reboot | 03:00 |
| soreau | mrdeb: I havent tried it so I cant say. But I do know its an entirely REd driver, and 3D is entirely unsupported | 03:00 |
| mafoelffen | jrib: Same on new user. Notice this on ubuntu-desktop... Xubuntu came up. Not really sure now on XFDE and Kubuntu, but know Ubuntu blank. | 03:00 |
| sark666 | i had my windows ntfs share mounted in linux. I accidentally moved my windows home dir to a sub dir, and then I moved it back. but windows won't recognize my home dir anymore. | 03:01 |
| iszak | rww, I doubt a few more connections matter :P | 03:01 |
| sark666 | in linux the files are all there. is there a way to check the actual ntfs permissions when it's mounted in linux? | 03:01 |
| rww | iszak: Enough people thinking that makes it self-defeating :P | 03:01 |
| sgt-hagger | yeah i use gnome | 03:01 |
| mrdeb | soreau: hahaha | 03:01 |
| iszak | rww, well I guess we should have faster mirrors then! | 03:02 |
| sgt-hagger | dont know if it was like that at boot, cant reboot right now | 03:02 |
| jrib | mafoelffen: anything of interest in ~/.xsession-errors | 03:02 |
| Seven_Six_Two | sark666, there are some ntfs utilites that you can install I think. | 03:02 |
| hiexpo | sgt-hagger, proballwas it will probally come back on next boot i have seen that happen | 03:02 |
| Seven_Six_Two | sark666, I haven't had windows for years, but there used to be a package for basic filesystem stuff | 03:02 |
| Chubcorp | Unless the battery is less than 5 min from full charge, the computer shuts down when it's unplugged. | 03:02 |
| sgt-hagger | ok | 03:03 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Chubcorp, it sounds like you leave your laptop plugged in all the time | 03:03 |
| opera | helo everyone | 03:03 |
| sark666 | there's ntfs progs but it doesn't sound like it does this | 03:03 |
| opera | i am just go to here to look what you said | 03:03 |
| Chubcorp | Yeah, because if the battery gets too low and I try to charge, class get out, then it turns off. | 03:04 |
| soreau | opera: You can idle, its fine | 03:04 |
| mrdeb | does anyone use iceweasel | 03:04 |
| soreau | ! anyone | mrdeb | 03:04 |
| ubottu | mrdeb: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 03:04 |
| daniel | hey guys | 03:05 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Chubcorp, It is likely that you need a new battery. Only plugging it in when it's almost dead, and then unplugging when it's fully charged will make it last longer. There is nothing you can do about it, unless it's under warranty | 03:05 |

| daniel | i have a problem with chromium and flash | 03:05 |
| moes | To open system files I have to right click and choose open...Where do I reset so I can use single left click | 03:05 |
| daniel | when i'm seeing a video i get a grey screen | 03:05 |
| daniel | how can i solve that | 03:05 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Chubcorp, unless of course, it is fine with another currently installed os | 03:05 |
| Chubcorp | Seven_Six_Two, it does work fine on Windows | 03:05 |
| Seven_Six_Two | daniel, does flash crash all the time? like every page load? | 03:05 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Chubcorp, have you checked your power settings under system>preferences? | 03:06 |
| soreau | moes: If you are referring to nautilus, Edit>Preferences>Behavior tab | 03:06 |
| opera | soreau, what's your means. | 03:06 |
| daniel | Seven_Six_Two, not always, sometimes is in the middle of the video | 03:07 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Chubcorp, I take it back. There are other settings somewhere. I don't remember where. Look in synaptic for "laptop" | 03:07 |
| Chubcorp | Seven_Six_Two, when it gets unplugged it says 3 min of battery remaining unless plugged back in. still turns off even if it's plugged back in | 03:07 |
| soreau | opera: Im here to help people with situations that I might know about | 03:07 |
| Seven_Six_Two | daniel, you're lucky. For a while there, I couldn't even load a page with an ad without that bar at the top | 03:07 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Chubcorp, well that's not right. | 03:08 |
| moes | soreau, Thanks that was the one | 03:08 |
| Chubcorp | I think it it might have something to do with my computer, it's a Dell Inspiron 10 mini, it's a loner. | 03:09 |
| mafoelffen | Error seems to start with not being able to parse desktop file then from there orphaned refrences. | 03:09 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Chubcorp, what happens if you log in to windows and charge it, then switch back? | 03:09 |
| opera | o . i need a english -china dic,,. who can tell me a name? | 03:09 |
| mafoelffen | Only change that cause this was restting fbs bus speed on CPU... | 03:10 |
| soreau | opera: google language tools ? | 03:10 |
| Chubcorp | Seven_Six_Two, It won't turn off if it's fully charged, just below a 90% charge | 03:10 |
| opera | en | 03:10 |
| soreau | opera: http://www.google.com/language_tools?hl=en | 03:10 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Chubcorp, it sounds like your computer is borked | 03:10 |
| mafoelffen | jrib: Sory errors above. | 03:10 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Chubcorp, is there anything noteworthy in the bios related to power? | 03:11 |
| Chubcorp | Seven_Six_Two, no, nothing | 03:11 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Chubcorp, perhaps a setting for apic or apm | 03:11 |
| Seven_Six_Two | apci. apic. I don't know | 03:11 |
| ubuntuguy | How do I install celtx on ubuntu 10.10? | 03:12 |
| Chubcorp | Seven_Six_Two, My computer has trouble with a lot of things like this, I cannot update the system, it will crash the OS, and it wasn't until I installed Poulsbo 2d and 3d that I could change screen resolution | 03:13 |
| Chubcorp | Seven_Six_Two, Perhaps I should just live with it | 03:13 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Chubcorp, perhaps you could shut down, remove the battery for a bit and then plug it back in and charge while powered off. then boot and try again | 03:14 |
| ohsix | Chubcorp: stuff with poulsbo in it are not well supported; as they are barely useable without a binary only driver that is not maintained | 03:14 |
| ubuntuguy | How do I install celtx on ubuntu 10.10 | 03:14 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Chubcorp, do you have candlewax, a leatherman, and a pinch of hair? | 03:15 |
| soreau | ubuntuguy: http://wiki.celtx.com/index.php?title=Installation#For_Linux | 03:15 |
| Chubcorp | Seven_Six_Two, yes, but this might be a weird fix. | 03:15 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Chubcorp, I may know an incantation, but the smell of fire will soothe your soul. | 03:15 |
| ohsix | Chubcorp: if it complains about shutdown, remove the battery while its on AC; if the computer doesn't keep running something could be wrong with how it charges the battery, or your power jack | 03:15 |
| soreau | ubuntuguy: Dont pm me | 03:16 |
| soreau | ! pm | ubuntuguy | 03:16 |

Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 03:16 |
| Chubcorp | It's not the power jack, I use at least 4 a day, and this problem is with my friends computers too. Same models | 03:16 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Chubcorp, sorry, you'll need a blowtorch too. (jk). It sounds like someone else knows more about poulsomethingsomething than I. | 03:17 |
| ohsix | Chubcorp: merely possibilities; you cant guess which one is correct without investigating them | 03:17 |
| opera | i install a stardict, but i can't where i install.and i don't find it | 03:17 |

| opera | how can i solve | 03:17 |
| opera | stardict | 03:18 |
| Chubcorp | ohsix, what are my possibilities? | 03:18 |
| mafoelffen | jrib: xsession-errors-old error ed on parsing desktop-setup file, then downhill from there with orphaned references. | 03:19 |
| jrib | mafoelffen: you should pastebin the file | 03:19 |
| rumpel_ | opera, alt-f2, "stardict" | 03:19 |

| speaker | evening all .. | 03:27 |
| vectory_ | samuy: for 3d games install proper drivers | 03:27 |
| soreau | samuy: What games are you referring to? | 03:27 |
| samuy | like machinarium | 03:27 |
| Seven_Six_Two | samuy, do you mean 3d? | 03:27 |
| jrib | mafoelffen: it would be strange for that to be the cause | 03:27 |
| speaker | any Linux tablet pc users here? | 03:27 |
| vectory_ | beware, ati drivers leabe much to be desired | 03:27 |
| soreau | ! any | 03:28 |

| jmknsd | do you have a discrete graphics card samuy? If so, what one? | 03:28 |
| samuy | nop | 03:28 |
| mafoelffen | I guess I "could" reset the bus back... but it "was" so slow. | 03:28 |
| samuy | the on board one | 03:28 |
| jrib | mafoelffen: try and see if the problems go away (just to troubleshoot) | 03:28 |

| soreau | samuy: What gpu do you have? | 03:29 |

| flan_suse | Anyone else on Ubuntu 10.04 using Banshee? | 03:30 |

| soreau | ! anyone | flan_suse | 03:30 |
| ubottu | flan_suse: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 03:30 |
| soreau | samuy: Get to a terminal and run lspci|grep VGA | 03:30 |
| samuy | where can i see that? | 03:30 |
| samuy | ok | 03:30 |
| flan_suse | soreau: I meant to ask: "Isn't EVERYONE using Banshee?" | 03:30 |
| ohsix | flan_suse: no | 03:30 |
| jmknsd | open a terminal and type what soreau said to | 03:30 |
| soreau | flan_suse: Still not a useful question | 03:30 |
| flan_suse | I have added the Banshee PPA for Ubuntu Lucid, and it still shows only 1.8 available, but browsing the PPA manually shows 2.0. | 03:31 |
| ohsix | flan_suse: also rhetorical, as obviously theres at least one person that isn't, and they might not be here; by chance there is at least one | 03:31 |

| jmknsd | samuy, a terminal can be opened from accessories sub-menu of the applications menu, if you've never used one before. | 03:32 |
| ohsix | Jon--: you might have lost it by rebooting :D (check /var/log, messages and syslog, but for real crashes stuff usually don't land there) | 03:32 |
| samuy | i know that | 03:32 |
| samuy | the problen is i cant do the simbol in the midle of the comands | 03:32 |
| ubuntuguy | I followed the instructions, can't seem to find the file "celtx" I see "celtx bin" | 03:33 |
| ayecee | speaker: either regular ubuntu or ubuntu netbook edition shouild work fine. | 03:33 |
| extor | I want to run a 10-IP socks proxy server but not sure which app to use. Plain on sshd tunneling binds each outgoing socket to the primary IP on eth0 thus negating the existence of the other 9 IPs | 03:33 |
| ubuntuguy | think I found it | 03:33 |
| jmknsd | samuy, it is above the enter key usually. you can also copy and paste the command directly | 03:33 |
| Jon-- | ohsix, fuck. | 03:33 |
| speaker | ayecee.. thanks I saw the Netbook edition.. just wasnt sure it would give me the stylus funtion.. will download it shortly | 03:33 |
| Jon-- | !language | Jon-- | 03:33 |
| ubottu | Jon--, please see my private message | 03:33 |
| Jon-- | ;) | 03:34 |
| flan_suse | I even did an apt-get update, but the old versions of Banshee show in my package manager. Yet here it shows 2.0 packages available: https://launchpad.net/~banshee-team/+archive/ppa | 03:34 |
| samuy | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. CN896/VN896/P4M900 [Chrome 9 HC] (rev 01) | 03:34 |
| samuy | there is | 03:34 |
| ubuntuguy | got it | 03:34 |
| ubuntuguy | :D | 03:34 |
| ohsix | extor: you usually cant usefully do that, unless it is valid for the proxy to exit on any 10 of the ips; and it usually is not, if a web browser doesn't use pipelining (sometimes it can't even) the requests could come from all 10 ips to load a single page, you might not use it for browsing, btu it is just an example | 03:35 |
| samuy | sorry my english im from uruguay | 03:35 |
| samuy | i paste what appear in my terminal | 03:36 |
| samuy | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. CN896/VN896/P4M900 [Chrome 9 HC] (rev 01) | 03:36 |
| extor | ohsix, I basically want it so that if I connect to 192.168.1.10:1028 then the corresponding exit thread will be bound to 192.168.1.10 and if I connect to 192.168.1.11:1028 for example then the exit socket will be 192.168.1.11 but it turns out that the exit for 192.168.1.X:1028 is always 192.168.1.10 | 03:37 |
| ohsix | extor: oh well that's something different then | 03:37 |
| samuy | can u readme? | 03:37 |
| wiley | ? | 03:37 |
| ohsix | extor: you can make ssh bind on different ips on both ends, but it probably isn't best to use ssh; something that wouldn't require multiple instances to handle each ingress/egress would probably be appropriate; its been a while since i looked and nothing i can remember will do that | 03:38 |
| jmknsd | samuy, yeah, I am not familiar with working with via chipsets, you should search the ubuntu forums for "CN896/VN896/P4M900" and make a post if you can't find anything | 03:38 |
| samuy | ohh ok | 03:38 |
| mafoelffen | jrib: No changed... Have a "cure" though. This is a newly installed test box- less than 1 week seen install. Will remove desktops, setup CPU correctly, then (re)install packages. I don't really now how to re-install a package from the apt-get "command line". | 03:38 |
| samuy | thanks anyway dude | 03:38 |
| extor | ohsix I tried it with ssh....but wasnt able to bind the exit nodes to different IPs however | 03:39 |

| UkeofJersey | Ha Ha! The noob has figured out IRC! | 03:41 |
| UkeofJersey | Greets, all! | 03:41 |
| UkeofJersey | I'm having some trouble with software sources and hopefully someone can help | 03:41 |
| soreau | ! details | UkeofJersey | 03:43 |
| ubottu | UkeofJersey: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 03:43 |
| UkeofJersey | I had added a PPA source via terminal (pmcenery for iphone stuff) and after perusing the other stuff, decided to remove the source. I removed it from Software Sources and no dice. I then deleted the two pmcenery files from /etc/apt/sources.list.d and it STILL shows up in Software Center | 03:44 |
| iszak | Anyone experienced high CPU load with PHP5-FPM PPA from Nginx and Ubuntu 10.04? | 03:44 |
| flan_suse | You refreshed the repositories since then? | 03:44 |
| UkeofJersey | I'm gonna guess no, flan | 03:45 |
| soreau | UkeofJersey: Did you try ppa-purge ? | 03:45 |
| ohsix | iszak: not likely that someone has the same circumstances (like even having the ppa installed), which part is using more cpu than you'd expect? | 03:45 |
| iszak | ohsix, what do you mean "which part" ? | 03:46 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Issue this command: sudo apt-get update | 03:46 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Close the Software Center first. | 03:46 |
| ohsix | UkeofJersey: reinstall the ppa, then use ppa-purge to remove it; it will pin the old versions and downgrade for you, by default no package manager will offer a downgrade | 03:46 |
| ohsix | also what flan_suse said | 03:46 |
| flan_suse | ohsix: I'm not sure if he installed any packages from the PPAs (no mention of it.) | 03:46 |
| ohsix | iszak: that is several moving pieces, you mentioned the set of them using more cpu than you expect, which one? | 03:46 |
| opera | who can tell me how to copy id name | 03:47 |
| iszak | ohsix, how can I distinguish ? | 03:47 |
| UkeofJersey | sudo apt-get update did not work | 03:47 |
| rumpel_ | UkeofJersey, just ask | 03:47 |
| bjgr | Hi guys. Gnome power manager applet always shows my battery status to be connected and fully charged when I disconnect the AC. | 03:47 |
| ohsix | iszak: how did you establish the high cpu usage in the first place, the load average? | 03:48 |
| bjgr | When I reconnect AC, it shows status correctly. | 03:48 |
| iszak | ohsix, I stopped the PHP5-FPM service and viola, low CPU load. | 03:48 |
| bjgr | Any ideas why? | 03:48 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Can you instead open the Synaptic Package manager? | 03:48 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: And see if the packages are still listed? | 03:48 |
| iszak | ohsix, there is also no requests being served either. | 03:48 |
| amusselm | I'm having problems with the package multimon | 03:48 |
| amusselm | It can't seem to open the the the soundcard device | 03:48 |
| ohsix | iszak: so it's down to the thing in the ppa | 03:48 |
| iszak | yeah | 03:49 |
| === yang is now known as Guest70140 | ||
| UkeofJersey | ok, give me a sec to look through Synaptic | 03:49 |
| ohsix | why are you using the ppa version, does it show the same thing in the regular version? | 03:49 |
| iszak | ohsix, because AFAIK PHP5-FPM doesn't come with 10.04 | 03:49 |
| UkeofJersey | where would I find the ppas? | 03:49 |
| ohsix | bjgr: if you remove the ac and wait 5 or 10 minutes, doe sit eventually show the battery discharging? | 03:50 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Settings > Repositories | 03:50 |
| l1nuxman | Weird behaviour for me here. My browser is displaying text even though the HTML does not correspond with it, as shown here: http://97.107.129.239/images/Screenshot.png See the input boxes value's are empty in the code but they remain there still!!!! | 03:50 |
| ohsix | iszak: i see, what logging do they do? as far as i know there'd be no special or expensive startup phase, whatever the problem is should be reported in their logs, like not being able to spawn | 03:51 |
| bjgr | ohsix, No, it keeps saying "Laptop battery is charged". | 03:51 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: But I was wondering if the packages are still listed, even after refreshing the repositories with apt-get update. | 03:51 |
| ohsix | bjgr: ok one moment i'll give you some instructions to look at whats going on | 03:51 |
| UkeofJersey | oh yes, this menu. That is what I tried first, Flan | 03:51 |
| bjgr | If I see the statistics it shows the right battery charge... and xfce4-power-manager also works. | 03:51 |
| bjgr | ohsix, thx | 03:51 |
| ohsix | bjgr: can you post the output of upower --dump to paste.ubuntu.com | 03:52 |
| UkeofJersey | since I'm a n00b I have no other repositories that I added. Can we try purging the ppa's like suggested before? | 03:52 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Grab the ppa-purge package. | 03:52 |
| iszak | ohsix, I'm not sure what you mean, the logs in /var/log/php5-fpm.log aren't exactly anything like warnings, just terminating, exiting, fpm is running, read to handle connection, etc. | 03:52 |
| ohsix | bjgr: are you using gnome or xfce? if something can see the proper battery information it might just be the viewer you're seeing the battery status in being wrong or not working right | 03:52 |
| opera | how to copy other's ID NAME | 03:52 |
| Jon-- | I dislike having a gnome-panel at the top of my screen, however, I'd like to have the time at the top right still across all workspaces and on maximized windows. Is there a way I can do this? | 03:53 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: So you did see it listed under > Settings > Repositories > Other Software ? | 03:53 |
| bjgr | ohsix, I used to use xfce4, but I have changed back to Gnome recently. | 03:53 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: You can add a panel to the top and add applets to it, such as the clock. | 03:53 |
| ohsix | Jon--: you can, but it will still probably work like the whole panel being there, and thus whatever is annoying you will still annoy you | 03:53 |
| rumpel_ | opera, what exactly do you mean? | 03:53 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, how do I do this? | 03:54 |
| bjgr | ohsix, http://paste.ubuntu.com/591069/ | 03:54 |
| UkeofJersey | grabbing the ppa-purge package (say that 10 times fast) I assume that it was cool to install all the other libs and stuff that it wanted to? | 03:54 |
| ohsix | iszak: look in top for what instance of it is using high cpu, if it's just one sitting there and not something respawning fast / over and over; look into what it's doing by attaching to it with strace | 03:54 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Like ohsix said, you'll still have a panel at the top (mostly empty) except for the clock or any other applet you add. | 03:54 |
| opera | if i will talk to someone,but how can i copy his name. | 03:54 |
| bjgr | ohsix, that is with AC connected | 03:54 |
| iszak | ohsix, thing is it doesn't show it at the top in top | 03:55 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, damn. | 03:55 |
| soreau | opera: Just highlight their nick and middle click to paste | 03:55 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: You can change the panel's property to not expand, and it will only be as big as all the items within. | 03:55 |
| rumpel_ | opera, talk to someone how? | 03:55 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, can I then right align it? | 03:55 |
| soreau | ! tab | opera | 03:55 |
| ubottu | opera: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 03:55 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Yup. | 03:55 |
| ohsix | bjgr: and without ac connected? | 03:55 |
| UkeofJersey | so do I just sudo ppa-purge? | 03:55 |
| bjgr | ohsix, without AC: http://paste.ubuntu.com/591070/ | 03:55 |
| soreau | UkeofJersey: sudo ppa-purge <name of ppa> | 03:56 |
| ohsix | iszak: so it's in a system call? you can install linux-tools and use "perf top" to see what's going on, then | 03:56 |
| Jon-- | uhoh | 03:56 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Just uncheck "expand" and click/drag it to the right. | 03:56 |
| Jon-- | I goofed things up royally now | 03:56 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: sudo ppa-purge nameofppa | 03:56 |
| iszak | ohsix, oh that's cool! thanks | 03:56 |
| iszak | ohsix, seems like the version bundled with 10.04 doesn't have perf | 03:57 |
| ohsix | bjgr: ok, so even upower doesn't know the ac adapter is going offline, and the battery state is changing | 03:57 |
| UkeofJersey | flan_suse, is there a shortname or something for the ppa? If so, where do I find it? | 03:57 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: On the launchpad page there is usually the name. | 03:57 |
| ohsix | iszak: make sure with dpkg -L it might have a versioned name | 03:57 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: For example: ppa:banshee-team/ppa | 03:57 |
| Jon-- | What I really want to do | 03:58 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: I think you can even ignore the ppa: part of the name. | 03:58 |
| Jon-- | Is have two gnome-panels running | 03:58 |
| Jon-- | That'd be perfect | 03:58 |
| UkeofJersey | sorry, but what is the launchpad page? | 03:58 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: You can. | 03:58 |
| Jon-- | Can I do this? | 03:58 |
| Jon-- | How? | 03:58 |
| === kronos is now known as Guest65581 | ||
| flan_suse | Jon--: Did you move the main panel to the bottom? | 03:58 |
| FloodBot3 | Jon--: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:58 |
| ohsix | UkeofJersey: it'd be in the same format as you'd use with apt-add-repository; which is listed on the launchpad ppa page | 03:58 |
| bjgr | ohsix, hm... it shows state: fully charged, but the energy clearly is not fully charged... | 03:58 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: The place where you got the PPA from. | 03:58 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, It's at the top right currently. I want just a clock in the top right, and a auto-hidden and centred panel at the top as well with my application menu and tray icons. | 03:58 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: And it's the form of ppa:blah/ppa or similar, like my above example. | 03:59 |
| opera | <soreau> | 03:59 |
| ohsix | bjgr: that's just cuz it hasn't made thet state transition, and your battery capacity is 62% as it knows it, so the battery is already very old, or the statistics are bad | 03:59 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: For the main one's properties, change it to "bottom". | 03:59 |
| soreau | opera: Yes, but try sore<tab><tab> | 03:59 |
| UkeofJersey | hmm....unfortunately I just cp'ed some command I found online. I do not recall the exact name I typed last week | 03:59 |
| Jon-- | done | 04:00 |
| ohsix | bjgr: is this a temporary problem or regular? | 04:00 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Try a google search for the name of the ppa + launchpad. | 04:00 |
| bjgr | ohsix, regular... it has been like that for several years. | 04:00 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Okay, now add a new panel, for the top, and uncheck expand. | 04:00 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Or wait, leave it expanded. | 04:00 |
| Jon-- | How do I add a new panel? | 04:00 |
| ohsix | bjgr: the battery is telling the OS that 54.931% of design capacity is "fully charged" | 04:00 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Add the clock first, THEN uncheck expand. | 04:01 |
| bjgr | ohsix, right now (with AC on) the indicater shows around 50% and says 30 min to full | 04:01 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Right-click any panel > Add new panel | 04:01 |
| bjgr | ohsix, when I disconnect it imediately jumps to fully charged | 04:01 |
| p1shk | I've created a samba share and can connect fine from any ubuntu pc, but I can't connect from windows and it's driving me crazy!! | 04:01 |
| bjgr | ohsix, And that also happens if the battery is at 25& | 04:01 |
| p1shk | I have a share that is accessible read only to everyone | 04:01 |
| p1shk | works fine from windows | 04:01 |
| p1shk | i've created a share that I want to be read/write but only for 1 user | 04:02 |
| UkeofJersey | could not find package list because I had manually deleted that from sources.list.d | 04:02 |
| p1shk | but i can't login | 04:02 |
| bjgr | ohsix, 25% | 04:02 |
| ohsix | bjgr: you might need to discharge your battery completely, then let it charge for a few cycles to get the statistics closer to correct, not to mention letting the battery resample its actual capacity, it seems the battery has builtin measurements that is saying that just over 50% is full, and it can't make up its mind about if it's charging or not | 04:02 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: You mean repository? | 04:02 |
| p1shk | I'm pulling my hair out over this one and can't work out what's going on, can anybody assist? | 04:02 |
| bjgr | ohsix, And it will keep showing 100%until it just runs out | 04:02 |
| opera | ohsix, test | 04:02 |
| iszak | ohsix, no luck it says I need linux-tools-2.6.32-308 however there's no version like that in the repo | 04:02 |
| UkeofJersey | sudo ppa-purge ppa:pmcenery/ppa | 04:02 |
| UkeofJersey | PPA to be removed: pmcenery ppa | 04:02 |
| UkeofJersey | Warning: Could not find package list for PPA: pmcenery ppa | 04:03 |
| ohsix | bjgr: you might just have to do that for a while, that often doesn't happen however, the battery has a separate signal from its metering that tells the OS that around 3 to 5% is available in order to shut down safely | 04:03 |
| bjgr | ohsix, but xfce4 shows correct all the time.... with or without AC | 04:03 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: It's because you already removed the PPA. Did you install any packages from this PPA? | 04:03 |
| ohsix | bjgr: it might be asking acpi directly and keeping its own statistics | 04:03 |
| trackerx90 | hi every one | 04:03 |
| UkeofJersey | yes there were libs for the iphone and such | 04:04 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: ppa-purge is mainly to revert packages back to the official versions, in case you want to undo changes from PPA packages. | 04:04 |
| trackerx90 | i have problem about new hadware | 04:04 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Did you uninstall those packages? | 04:04 |
| trackerx90 | no driver for me | 04:04 |
| folorn | how do find a specified folder where a program is through the terminal if possible? | 04:04 |
| UkeofJersey | no, I wanted to keep the packages I just didn't need the source anymore | 04:04 |
| trackerx90 | i need the way, how to compile driver for it | 04:04 |
| ohsix | bjgr: but like i said; your battery is very old or hasn't been discharged recently, it says its capacity is only 55%, the statistics upower does say the capacity is 63% | 04:04 |
| jherrera | what kind of driver? | 04:04 |
| trackerx90 | NIC | 04:05 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: I thought you did remove the repository? | 04:05 |
| UkeofJersey | I'm just wondering how the Ubuntu Software list is populated | 04:05 |
| ohsix | bjgr: the battery fuel gauge and the OS statistics don't work well if the battery isn't regularly discharged | 04:05 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Works? | 04:05 |
| foxbuntu | noob question, I have \raggedright in the settings for my doc and that works great except a few spots I want to be fully justified like default, also I want to indent an entire paragraph | 04:05 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, I am trying to figure out what configuration I like | 04:05 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Could you find those packages in Synaptic? | 04:05 |
| trackerx90 | 88E8056 Marvell | 04:05 |
| bjgr | ohsix, bt upower writes: that energy-full-design is 57, energy-full is 32 and that energy is 19. Why would it then show 100% | 04:05 |
| foxbuntu | whoops wrong channel :) | 04:06 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Cool, sounds like you're doing fine. | 04:06 |
| ohsix | iszak: dunno what to say, for that to be true you'd have to be running some weird kernel package | 04:06 |
| e-frame | hi all | 04:06 |
| bjgr | ohsix, Well it is pretty often discharged, since I forget about it, and the PM just keeps showing 100. So eventually it just goes black... | 04:07 |
| ohsix | bjgr: energy isn't the number it uses, capacity/percentage is; the energy numbers are to calculate energy use since it's measured in watt hour, they're separate statistics | 04:07 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Safer way next time is to remove the repository using the GUI package manager, and then reload the packages. | 04:07 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, I have a panel with just a clock, but I can't seem to make it transparent. any ideas? | 04:07 |
| iszak | ohsix, well it's a VM so.. | 04:07 |
| mafoelffen | jrib: Sorry/Same. Now removing. Then will install. Should I purge? | 04:07 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Transparent? Not sure, without compositing. And I don't use Compiz. | 04:07 |
| ohsix | bjgr: ok, if it's been regularly discharged, and done recently; and still isn't showing proper status i don't know where to look next, but if it has been discharged; and that 55% number is correct; the battery is very very old and should probably be replaced | 04:08 |
| p1shk | AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH | 04:08 |
| p1shk | I've literally spent 90minutes troubleshooting this samba issue | 04:08 |
| p1shk | and I just found the solution | 04:08 |
| bjgr | ohsix, so if capacity is 62% and percentage is 54% according to upower, why does the status say fully charged. | 04:08 |
| UkeofJersey | flan_suse, I suppose I could search around and find what I installed, but I'm not sure what the installed packages have to do with my problem. I have PPA for Paul Mcenery listed under Canononical, Independent, etc. Can't I just remove a line from a file to axe that? | 04:08 |
| Jon-- | My gnome-panel background colour changes aren't taking effect. Any ideas? | 04:08 |
| braxton | Hello, I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 server edition 32-bit on an old desktop and I would like to know how to install the jre so that I may run java server programs on it. | 04:08 |
| Jon-- | Oh | 04:09 |
| ohsix | bjgr: it's 54% according to the battery; sorry about mixing all the numbers without mentioning that | 04:09 |
| braxton | I looked it up online, but I think it's not listed in the repositories or something. | 04:09 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: It would be under /etc/apt/ | 04:09 |
| bjgr | It will also say that in 20 min, when percentage is 30%. I already tested that. | 04:09 |
| p1shk | windows xp had connected to one share with a certain user name, and was cached, when i tried to use another username to another share nothing would work | 04:09 |
| Jon-- | It's inherently a problem with gnome-panel | 04:09 |
| Jon-- | It only adds transparency outside of panel items | 04:09 |
| Jon-- | Which doesn't help me with the clock D: | 04:09 |
| e-frame | hi, i am going to install ubuntu on Xen @ Centos server. but never succed. any suggestion will be very appreciated | 04:09 |
| p1shk | i had to do: net use \\share /DELETE | 04:09 |
| p1shk | now it works | 04:09 |
| Jon-- | I guess I'm writing a conky script or something? | 04:09 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: But you removed the repository manually, so I'm not sure what you might have missed or done differently. I just use Synaptic to remove a repository, and it's gone. | 04:09 |
| bjgr | ohsix, and as soon as AC is on, it shows something different. | 04:09 |
| ohsix | bjgr: you can try removing your battery history from /var/lib/upower and restarting, then it'll start collecting new statistics; though they should only be bad if there isn't a significant percentage of use of the battery while in ubuntu (say on a laptop booted to windows 90% of the time, it will miss sampling the battery and the statistics will drift) | 04:10 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Could do that, yeah. Or maybe some GNOME applet out there exists? | 04:10 |
| Jon-- | I'm actually using the fact that gnome-panel keeps windows from maximizing over top of them to my advantage | 04:11 |
| bjgr | ohsix, i wil try that. It is a ubuntu only laptop, and has always been | 04:11 |
| Jon-- | My conky script has a bar across the top with a bunch of useful info | 04:11 |
| Jon-- | The issue is that that is all transparent, but the clock isn't, and looks strange :( | 04:11 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: There's different types of applets for GNOME, not sure how well they work though. gDesklets, Screenlets, etc... | 04:11 |
| Jon-- | So I either have to modify windows to not maximize all the way somehow | 04:11 |
| Jon-- | (no idea how) | 04:11 |
| Jon-- | Or find a way to get gnome-panel panel items to display text transparently (also no idea how) | 04:11 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: I see what you mean. | 04:12 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: But then for a "consistent" look, you can have the panel expand. | 04:12 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Maybe add some other applets to the panel, for good balance, lol. | 04:12 |
| ohsix | bjgr: upower at least knows when your ac adapter state changes | 04:12 |
| Jon-- | That doesn't mean I can do what I did in my conky script ;) | 04:12 |
| ohsix | bjgr: did you edit out the vendor/model numbers? | 04:13 |
| UkeofJersey | I'm not sure what I did differently, flan, since the very first thing I did was go to software sources > Other software and just used the remove button there | 04:13 |
| bjgr | ohsix, but the problem is that Gnome PM doesn't react to it. Is there any alternatives to GPM? | 04:13 |
| bjgr | ohsix, nope, haven't touched anything | 04:13 |
| ohsix | bjgr: one thing at a time, gpm gets its information from upower, thats why we look there first | 04:14 |
| UkeofJersey | next I removed the 2 files that were in sources.list.d that referred to pmcenery | 04:14 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, my current issue: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/387278/Screenshot-panel.png | 04:14 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: What about the /etc/apt/sources.list file? | 04:14 |
| ohsix | bjgr: is this a legit battery? those vendor/model numbers are BS | 04:14 |
| UkeofJersey | there was no reference to pmcenery at all | 04:14 |
| bjgr | ohsix, it is the original battery, and the laptop vendor is fujitsu-siemens | 04:14 |
| UkeofJersey | it looks like the file wasn't changed from install (I'm guessing) | 04:15 |
| Jon-- | Oh dear | 04:15 |
| ohsix | bjgr: yea i see | 04:15 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: So no packages show in your package manager? But there's a reference to his PPA in the Software Center? | 04:15 |
| Jon-- | I think I discovered a hackish solution, perhaps | 04:15 |
| Jon-- | Nope, nevermind. | 04:15 |
| ohsix | bjgr: there are lots of bug reports about this if you search for that vendor string | 04:15 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: I see, but why not use Conky all the way? | 04:16 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Oh yeah... maximixed windows. | 04:16 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, Then how do I make it so maximized windows don't go all the way? ;) | 04:16 |
| demonspork | I can't get an Ubuntu intsall to boot. It juts comes up to a screen with a blinking cursor. I have manually tried to set every single hard drive in the computer (7 of them) to be the ONLY boot device from the BIOS and none of them work. Grub was supposedly put on the first hard drive by the installer but it just refuses to start | 04:16 |
| demonspork | clean install of Ubuntu | 04:16 |
| UkeofJersey | flan_suse, where in synaptics should I be looking for these packages? | 04:16 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: No feature in conky to disallow windows from covering it when maximized? | 04:16 |
| ohsix | bjgr: it also looks like the metering for the battery can have significant outliers and mess with the battery statistics | 04:16 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Just click "Search" and enter a name of one of them. | 04:17 |
| Jon-- | I doubt it, conky is a pretty dumb just write to desktop sort of application | 04:17 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Then go to Package > Versions > and see if it refers to his PPA in one of the versions. | 04:17 |
| mafoelffen | jrib: Remove then install was a nogo. Ready to start all over and install again from fresh | 04:17 |

| Jon-- | *tries* | 04:19 |

| akram | and all the download in transmission goes to the user transmission/Downloads | 04:24 |
| demonspork | Grub is definitely installed on the first hard drive /dev/sda and whenever I select the first hard drive as the only boot device it comes up to a screen with a blinking _ and nothing else | 04:24 |
| soreau | UkeofJersey: Never knew it would make sense, huh? :) | 04:24 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Nice! Will like to see it too. | 04:24 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, conky -c .otherconkyrc runs conky running a different config file than ~/.conkyrc so I can just run a couple instances. | 04:24 |
| akram | no i have other user that has apatchi working on it and i can access it using http | 04:24 |
| demonspork | other hard drives just say "reboot and Select proper Boot device" | 04:24 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Simple, yet sane. | 04:24 |
| akram | so i want the folder downloads also be accessable from the http | 04:25 |
| akram | but i dont know how | 04:25 |
| UkeofJersey | it's just so non-intuitive in OSX and Win | 04:25 |
| akram | this is my second day trying to solve this | 04:25 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: You're making me want to try out conky soon, lol. | 04:25 |
| mickster04 | akram: you have apache installefd and running? | 04:25 |
| akram | with no luck | 04:25 |
| akram | yes | 04:25 |
| akram | its runing | 04:25 |
| ohsix | bjgr: in the laptop, a bios update | 04:25 |
| akram | i have about 10 websites on threre | 04:25 |
| akram | i have whm cpanell | 04:25 |
| Seven_Six_Two | akram, ok, are they on the same machine? same lan? | 04:25 |
| nicolasjengler | akram, just apache or xampp or something like that? | 04:25 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, I have a python script I can send you that automatically parses my GMail inbox over SSL and displays the sender - subject on my desktop. | 04:26 |
| mickster04 | akram: well my advice would be copy the contents to a folder you are allowed to share out | 04:26 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, You have just been converted ;) | 04:26 |
| akram | i dont know what comes with whm ? | 04:26 |
| mickster04 | akram: something under one of your websites' folders | 04:26 |
| akram | the problem is that some files are 10gb | 04:26 |
| UkeofJersey | http://imgbin.org/index.php?page=image&id=3756 | 04:26 |
| Seven_Six_Two | akram, are transmission and apache on the same box? | 04:26 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Dropbox works fine for those images. | 04:26 |
| akram | move ing them will make huge load | 04:27 |
| akram | yesyes | 04:27 |
| akram | same box | 04:27 |
| demonspork | akram, are the files on the same hard drive and filesystem as the folder you need them in? | 04:27 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Ohhhhh, you're fine, don't worry. | 04:27 |
| mickster04 | akram: well move them? you can make it so they are readable (downloadable) but not deletable? that's still the easiest thing to do imo | 04:27 |
| akram | yes the same | 04:27 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Notice how all of those listed packages are *installed*? | 04:27 |
| demonspork | if you move the files in the same filesystem it doesn't actually move them, it just references the new location | 04:27 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, ? I have Dropbox, what do you mean? | 04:27 |
| AegNuddel | I'm trying to get this package installed, but it has so many dependencies | 04:27 |
| AegNuddel | http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/terraform | 04:27 |
| mickster04 | akram: so no not huge load, like a minuteor three? | 04:27 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: I know, like before, how you pasred a link to your DB URL. | 04:27 |
| akram | what | 04:27 |
| bjgr | ohsix, OK, can I see my bios version from ubuntu somehow? | 04:27 |
| akram | i tryed to move a file 10gb | 04:27 |
| AegNuddel | Is there any way to get them all together? | 04:27 |
| Seven_Six_Two | akram, just link the directory, and set up apache to show the folders. Then don't make it public. | 04:27 |
| mickster04 | akram: it won't move the files? just what is pointing to them... | 04:28 |
| akram | the system sayd the load was something like 60 | 04:28 |
| akram | lol | 04:28 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, Oh yes, I know. I wasn't commenting on that, just that you can have some pretty neat scripts with conky, like mine that displays my inbox | 04:28 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: That just means all of those packages were installed from the vendor/PPA known as Paul McNerney. | 04:28 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: The PPA is not on your system, don't worry. | 04:28 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Oh, lol. | 04:29 |
| akram | how do i move the files like you said just referance ? | 04:29 |
| AegNuddel | I'm trying to get this package installed, but it has so many dependencies: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/terraform ... Is there any way to get them all together? | 04:29 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: I thought you were going to start "automatically" sharing your inbox out. | 04:29 |
| bjgr | ohsix, anyway... a firmware bug? But it used to work in previous versions of Ubuntu, several years back. | 04:29 |
| UkeofJersey | AAAAAaaaahhh.....ok....to be honest I've been pretty much using my jailbroken iPhone as an idea of how these sources and packages work. | 04:29 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: To OTHER people to see your Gmail, lol. I read it wrong. | 04:29 |
| shcherbak | Nice smile to screenshot, please. | 04:30 |
| akram | i used this function cp file file2 | 04:30 |
| X_kap3 | hey boyz somebody tell me wht software do create a usb booteable | 04:30 |
| X_kap3 | ? | 04:30 |
| akram | is this the right function | 04:30 |
| akram | ? | 04:30 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Yeah, you're fine. Nothing's wrong to begin with. | 04:30 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, Haha. No. No one gets to see my pr0n emails but me ;P | 04:30 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: And Google! | 04:30 |
| UkeofJersey | I figured that like in Cydia, I'd want to keep the source list trim and slim so it doesn't check all that stuff every time I open it | 04:30 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: I *hope* I was kidding... | 04:30 |
| Jon-- | flan_suse, And.. oh yes. and google. | 04:30 |
| flan_suse | lol | 04:30 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: And it's not. So you're all set. | 04:31 |
| ohsix | bjgr: well how stuff is reported has changed in that time | 04:31 |
| UkeofJersey | flan_suse, excellent! I thank you greatly for your time and patience! | 04:31 |
| akram | wgere are you guys ? | 04:31 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: For example, in openSUSE there's a term used called "vendors" and even AFTER you remove a repository, a package will still show it was installed by vendor "Packman" or whatever repository. | 04:31 |
| akram | where did you go | 04:32 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: That's all that's happening in your case, nothing to worry about. | 04:32 |
| akram | why no one is helping me | 04:32 |
| akram | 04:32 | |
| akram | ? | 04:32 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Keep having fun, and take care man. | 04:32 |
| ohsix | bjgr: cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/bios_version in a terminal | 04:32 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Glad it makes more sense now. | 04:32 |
| Khisanth | akram: that makes a copy, use ln if you want a "pointer" | 04:33 |
| shcherbak | akram: You mean cp file file2? | 04:33 |
| UkeofJersey | Thanks! I'm loving learning all this stuff as it's giving me something to do. I've got a broken ankle, some unix knowledge, and a netbook with Ubuntu (which I never really used before) | 04:33 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: Of course! And sometimes you learn best by trying it yourself. | 04:33 |
| akram | so ln file1 file2 is how its done ? | 04:33 |
| flan_suse | UkeofJersey: I have to run now, but good luck for any future projects you try out. | 04:34 |
| UkeofJersey | thanks you again, and good night! | 04:34 |
| flan_suse | Jon--: Had you pasted the link yet? | 04:34 |
| shcherbak | akram: Try: man ln | 04:34 |
| ohsix | bjgr: that second bug has pointers to changes people have made to their dsdt (part of acpi, part of your bios) that make the battery reporting work correctly, hopefully a new bios already includes a fix | 04:35 |
| Khisanth | akram: ln -s file pointer_thing | 04:35 |
| akram | what is pointer_thing ? | 04:36 |
| akram | ok | 04:37 |
| akram | i did it | 04:37 |
| akram | thank you guys this is great | 04:37 |
| akram | but can i hard link a directory ? | 04:37 |
| akram | not a single file becuase i have like 100 files | 04:37 |
| genii-around | akram: eg: ln -s real-file-name symbolic-link-name | 04:37 |
| akram | a directoy not a file | 04:37 |
| soreau | akram: ln -s creates a symlink. I dont know what your call a hard link | 04:37 |
| flan_suse | I'm out, peace! | 04:37 |
| akram | ?? | 04:38 |
| akram | ?? | 04:39 |
| akram | how do i hard link a directory | 04:39 |
| soreau | akram: What do you mean by that? | 04:39 |
| Seven_Six_Two | don't use -s | 04:39 |
| akram | you just show me how to link to a file | 04:39 |
| akram | but i want to link a directory | 04:39 |
| bjgr | ohsix, there is a newer bios. I'm figuring out how to put the iso update on a usb now, and then updating the current bios | 04:40 |
| akram | all files in a directory | 04:40 |
| soreau | akram: man ln | 04:40 |
| akram | man ln what? | 04:40 |
| soreau | akram: man ln will display the manual to ln | 04:40 |
| soreau | the link command | 04:40 |
| shcherbak | type: man ln | 04:40 |
| akram | oh ok | 04:40 |
| soreau | akram: Use / to search and q to quit | 04:40 |
| ohsix | bjgr: cool, i really hope it fixes it | 04:41 |
| akram | it says Operation not permitted | 04:42 |
| soreau | akram: man ln ?? | 04:42 |
| akram | yes | 04:42 |
| akram | it says | 04:42 |
| akram | ln -r to hard link directory | 04:42 |
| akram | so i did this and it says | 04:42 |
| akram | Operation not permitted | 04:42 |
| soreau | ah | 04:42 |
| shcherbak | oh | 04:42 |
| Seven_Six_Two | akram, sudo ln -s /home/user/downloads /home/otheruser/www/newDir | 04:43 |
| soreau | akram: If you are trying to create a link in a directory owned by root, you probably need to use sudo | 04:43 |
| akram | but i am looged in as a root | 04:43 |
| shcherbak | oh | 04:43 |
| soreau | well thats not good :P | 04:44 |
| binox | i have been all over irc trying to find some help, and now i end up back where i started | 04:44 |
| soreau | binox: What is the problem? | 04:44 |
| Seven_Six_Two | akram, then look up the apache directives. There aren't that many. It's the one about file listings. or #apache | 04:44 |
| Seven_Six_Two | akram, and restrict access to other directories somehow... | 04:44 |
| soreau | You should never run as root | 04:44 |
| === root is now known as Guest16582 | ||
| soreau | heh | 04:45 |
| shcherbak | hm | 04:45 |
| akram | i have been runing as root for ever | 04:45 |
| soreau | Unless you are a real system administrator | 04:45 |
| soreau | akram: You probably have screwed up permissions all over the place then | 04:45 |
| akram | lol | 04:45 |
| akram | maby | 04:45 |
| binox | i have a dual boot xp/maverick. i installed a shell replacement called litestep on my windows xp. now i cant load into windows. not in safe mode, not regular not any way. i want to use ubuntu to rearrange the sytstem files to fix windows. i have found out i can, but now i nedd someone familiar with litestep, that help me with what to do on my windows partition mounted in ubuntu | 04:46 |
| soreau | binox: Doesnt sound like a ubuntu problem to me | 04:46 |
| binox | im sure ill end up reinstalling, but i sure would like to go at it through ubuntu | 04:46 |
| Seven_Six_Two | binox, have you looked for a litestep channel? | 04:47 |
| akram | what you mean apache directive where do i find these | 04:47 |
| akram | ? | 04:47 |
| sgb77 | Hello all, I've been using smb4k to mount shared drives on my other computers, are there any better ways I can do this? | 04:47 |
| binox | soreau: i know, but #windows didnt have any answers, ive been waiting for #litestep for an hour, and the loco teams all thought i should be able to find help here where i started | 04:47 |
| Seven_Six_Two | akram, http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/ | 04:47 |
| binox | actually on #Litestep for my like 2 or 3 hours | 04:48 |
| bob__429 | binox: the XP disk has 2 repair modes, try the first and run 'fixboot' | 04:48 |
| binox | ok | 04:48 |
| soreau | binox: You would have to figure out whatever broke it and undo it | 04:48 |
| shcherbak | akram: Why do you run system as root, and what precisely do you want to do now? And are you utterly positive that you are using Ubuntu? | 04:48 |
| binox | one question, the install is on a tablet. no cd drive, so i have to use usb to boot. and i have it set to boot from usb. | 04:48 |
| akram | i am using centos | 04:49 |
| binox | do i need to actually burn the xp iso to the usb stick | 04:49 |
| soreau | binox: That wasnt a question | 04:49 |
| shcherbak | hem? | 04:49 |
| binox | or can i just cut and paste it, because it didnt work | 04:49 |
| soreau | akram: Then why are you trying to get support here? | 04:49 |
| akram | becuase in deep level its the same | 04:49 |
| binox | im sorrthank you akram | 04:49 |
| akram | and i dont know where i can find centos irc | 04:49 |
| binox | i mean thank you akram | 04:50 |
| akram | why thank you? | 04:50 |
| binox | nevermind, im silly | 04:50 |
| shcherbak | akram: There is channel called #centos | 04:50 |
| genii-around | akram: http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=8 | 04:50 |
| Seven_Six_Two | akram, please don't PM me. Thanks. | 04:51 |
| Roofle | I'm trying to set up Ubuntu server 10.10 with software RAID 5. I'm aware that I can't boot from a software RAID 5 array, so I made a small RAID 1 array as well, and set it's mount point to /boot. Now, when the install gets to the part where it installs GRUB, it fails to install ("Executing 'grub-install /dev/sda' failed). I don't remember my last install going this badly, anyone have any advice? Or can anyone point me to a good how-t | 04:51 |
| soreau | akram: You really should get help in the channel that is specific to your distribution because they might have information that might be more helpful, specific to your distro | 04:52 |

| ubottu | Jon--: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 04:55 |
| geraudk2000 | but ubuntu use only 2.3 Go of de ram | 04:55 |
| soreau | geraudk2000: What makes you think that? | 04:55 |
| geraudk2000 | somebody can explain me? | 04:55 |
| demonspork | Grub is definitely installed on the first hard drive /dev/sda and whenever I select the first hard drive as the only boot device it comes up to a screen with a blinking _ and nothing else. When I have it start off of other hard drives it says "Please Reboot and Select a valid Boot Device". How can I fix this grub installation? It is a fresh install of Ubuntu and I know almost nothing about Grub2 (I am at home working with Grub though) | 04:56 |
| soreau | ! grub2 | demonspork | 04:56 |
| ubottu | demonspork: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 04:56 |
| geraudk2000 | soreau: I don't know why ubuntu use only 2.3Go of 4Go | 04:56 |
| genii-around | sgb77: Perhaps see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently | 04:56 |
| Khisanth | I think you can blame Intel for that one :) | 04:57 |
| demonspork | soreau, I found that factoid earlier and as of yet it hasn't helped me solve my issue :( Thank you though | 04:57 |
| Jon-- | conky when used with own_window_type panel obstructs my gnome-panel I use and have auto-hide enabled on... I can't get to my gnome-panel? Is there a work-around for this? Perhaps a way I can get windows to not go overtop of conky but also don't botch up my gnome-panel? I have not gotten an answer in #conky | 04:57 |
| bob__429 | geraudk2000: did you use the system monitor? | 04:57 |
| geraudk2000 | bob__429: yes | 04:57 |
| soreau | demonspork: After the blinking underscore, have you waited for it to finish booting? | 04:58 |
| demonspork | soreau, I have waited and waiting but no further activity. I figured it may be taking a long time because of the 7x 1TB and 1.5TB hard drives, but 15 minutes is a bit much | 04:59 |
| undecim | Any way to batch convert Gimp xcf files to png? | 05:00 |
| sgb77 | genii-around: I would really prefer to mount shared folders on demand, I connect to different drives in different machines, and If I connect them permanently I am afraid that would slow down my computer, wouldn't it? | 05:00 |
| ohsix | undecim: save them in gimp | 05:00 |
| shcherbak | Jon--: i have thought that you can position in conky. | 05:00 |
| genii-around | sgb77: You can put an option then for "noauto" | 05:00 |
| undecim | ohsix: All 600 of them? | 05:00 |
| ohsix | undecim: xcf files preserve layers and other gimp-y things, it loses information doing so | 05:00 |
| undecim | ohsix: Key word: Batch | 05:01 |
| ohsix | undecim: yes, imagemagick also supports xcf | 05:01 |
| undecim | ohsix: Cool. Ty | 05:01 |
| ohsix | you can script gimp too, or have a script call gimp for the job | 05:01 |
| genii-around | sgb77: Then if you want to mount one in fstab that gets mounted locally to for instance /media/winbox1 you just issue: sudo mount /media/winbox1 | 05:01 |
| Jon-- | shcherbak, one second please | 05:02 |
| Khisanth | undecim: probably with a gimp script if there is no other option | 05:02 |
| Roofle | I take it the ubuntu installer doesn't take too well to RAID/grub? | 05:02 |
| undecim | ohsix: Ah... Just looked at the gimp man page XD | 05:02 |
| sgb77 | gennii-auto: thanks I'll read that link you posted | 05:02 |

| MK` | sure orangemax we can try | 05:12 |
| Jon-- | I am having an issue combining gnome-panel and conky's panel. #conky has not been helpful (everyone idle I guess). Short video of problem: http://www.screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cXfjfloSL | 05:13 |
| Jon-- | shcherbak, ^ | 05:14 |
| orangemax | i cant reg to icq account from pidginand emphaty | 05:14 |
| Roofle | I like the desktop :P | 05:14 |
| orangemax | what can you advise for me | 05:14 |
| student | wew.. | 05:14 |
| Jon-- | The black on the edges was added by screencast-o-matic... it's not there normally. | 05:15 |
| Jon-- | I suppose for a cross platform java browser based solution it works ;) | 05:15 |
| student | asaalamualaikumm/... | 05:15 |
| geraudk2000 | ohsix: I don't understand your question... | 05:15 |
| ohsix | Jon--: "combine"? | 05:15 |
| student | help mee. | 05:16 |
| Jon-- | I want to be able to do the following: 1) Not have a window maximized hide what conky is displaying. use_window_mode panel does this. 2) Still be able to bring up my gnome-panel at the top... Conky blocks this. | 05:16 |
| Chr|s | Im thinking about partitioning my drive to always keep my home folder, so upon new install of ubuntu it would always be there..correct? | 05:16 |
| researcher123 | can a .pdf be converted to .doc in some Ubuntu application? | 05:16 |
| Jon-- | So, possible solutions are, somehow stop windows from fully maximizing without needing to set use_window_mode panel, or get conky and gnome-panel to play nice somehow otherwise | 05:17 |
| shcherbak | Jon--: your link wants java from me. | 05:17 |
| ohsix | Jon--: you'd need to find a way to change the visible desktop area like the panel does when it's not use_window_mode | 05:18 |
| ohsix | Jon--: that's hard to do without conflicting with desktop usage of the area D: | 05:18 |
| Jon-- | shcherbak, It shows me invoking conky and being unable to get to my auto-hide gnome-panel at the top. | 05:18 |
| Jon-- | shcherbak, conky is using use_window_mode setting to panel, which stops windows from maximizing into conky's stuff, but also blocks my gnome-panel D: | 05:19 |
| nona_me | hi | 05:20 |
| Jon-- | ohsix, any ideas? :) | 05:20 |
| Khisanth | Jon--: you want both at the same time with the panel set to auto hide? | 05:20 |
| Lewoco | I don't remember the password to my keyring. How do I reset it to my login password? | 05:21 |
| Jon-- | Khisanth, Yes. My only requirement is that maximized windows don't hide my conky. if I have to hard-code a y-offset, so be it, the vertical length of this conkyrc should never change from where it is now.. | 05:21 |
| Jon-- | So another option is somehow hack Metacity to THINK there's a gnome-panel of some size, or otherwise restrict maximized windows. | 05:22 |
| ohsix | Jon--: if it needs to be visible make your window manager put it on top, if it's compiz its easy to make it translucent and all that too | 05:22 |
| shcherbak | Jon--: what about two instancies of conky (top empty for panel only) | 05:22 |
| stercor | How do I specify gid=46 in an fstab entry for a flash drive? | 05:22 |
| Jon-- | shcherbak, How does this stop windows from maximizing without needing use_window_mode panel, again blocking gnome_panel? Maybe I'm missing something about what you mean. | 05:22 |
| MK` | orangemax: you mean making a new icq account? | 05:23 |
| MK` | or login into an existing one? | 05:23 |
| Jon-- | ohsix, Can you help me do this? | 05:23 |
| Kindari | how can I publicly share a directory in samba (no username/password) with write access, while still having security=user (for other shares). Or should I do the reverse? security=share and then lock down the other ones by username? | 05:23 |
| ohsix | Jon--: not really, but compizconfig-settings-manager makes it pretty easy to do window matches in the opacity plugin and the actions plugin, the ones that apply those things | 05:24 |
| Andy-at-home | guys, how can i find and replace a piece of text in all the files in a directory from shell? | 05:24 |
| shcherbak | Jon--: conky 1 - on top no window mode, conky 2 under conky 1 with window mode (never tried it - but in html it often works) | 05:24 |
| ohsix | stercor: do you need it to be in fstab? are you using a filesystem on it that doesn't support posix permissions? | 05:25 |
| stercor | ohsix: I'd like it to be in fstab so that it mounts when I plug it in. After some research, it seems that the gid prevents chmod, chown files on the flash drive. | 05:26 |
| stercor | ohsix: gid=0 won't let me do anything about ownership or permissions. | 05:28 |

| samuy | hi al | 05:28 |
| samuy | all | 05:28 |
| stercor | ruan: fat32 | 05:28 |
| ruan | stercor: i doubt that has permissions | 05:28 |
| ruan | does it? | 05:28 |
| stercor | ruan: Yep. All 700 with owner root. | 05:29 |
| ruan | i mean, the filesystem itself | 05:29 |
| ohsix | stercor: it should mount when you plug it in already, udisks/gio/nautilus handle that; gid doesn't prevent those things from happening, filesystems that don't support posix permissions have mount overrides to assign a static owner; and that's what gid does | 05:29 |
| ruan | is it even possible to have permission over files in fat32? | 05:29 |
| ohsix | ruan: no | 05:29 |

| Khisanth | that seems to work fine with two panels | 06:01 |
| Jon-- | Khisanth, That may work, however how can I get the gnome-panel to go right below? When I click and drag it has to go quite a bit down my screen, can't seem to move it just a little bit | 06:02 |
| samuy | awake atlast? | 06:02 |
| samuy | are u there? | 06:02 |
| Khisanth | hmm | 06:02 |
| Awake_Atlast | tea' sorry bud was doin research. total noob to linux | 06:02 |
| Khisanth | Jon--: that would require some digging | 06:03 |
| samuy | how i can update my hardware | 06:03 |
| Jon-- | Khisanth, Haha. ;). | 06:03 |
| Jon-- | I could also maybe do some fancy compiz-config window hacking | 06:03 |
| Jon-- | To make it so the non panel-moded conky stops windows from maximizing over top of them | 06:03 |
| Jon-- | I'm open to any solution that someone may have | 06:03 |
| samuy | in the page of via doesnt appear ubuntu 10.10 | 06:04 |

| samuy | ? | 06:05 |
| Awake_Atlast | Try updatin ubuntu then running restricted | 06:05 |
| Awake_Atlast | you have to open it with a uncompressor | 06:05 |
| Awake_Atlast | like winrar | 06:05 |
| samuy | ok then? | 06:05 |
| samuy | cose i dowload a driver beta | 06:06 |
| Awake_Atlast | I dont know / | 06:06 |

| Khisanth | the dragging | 06:06 |
| milamber | !bz2 | samuy | 06:06 |
| ubottu | samuy: Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression | 06:06 |
| samuy | yes i know that but | 06:06 |
| Jon-- | Khisanth, yeah. | 06:06 |
| samuy | how install the files in there | 06:06 |
| Jon-- | Khisanth, That's the issue is that window_mode set to panel block gnome_panel | 06:07 |
| milamber | samuy: it depends on what you have downloaded. | 06:07 |

| samuy | (ubottu) hi | 06:11 |
| zee313 | is there any software for live tv channels in ubuntu. like "Readon " in windows | 06:11 |
| Awake_Atlast | samuy, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Netbooks#Working | 06:11 |
| Awake_Atlast | review that wiki. It should solve your issue bud. | 06:11 |
| MK` | Is it easy to move /tmp, /var, etc. to separate partitions using a livecd? | 06:12 |
| urgodfather | zee313: look up zattoo | 06:12 |
| Khisanth | Jon--: but if it's under that shouldn't be a problem | 06:14 |
| milamber | MK`: are you repartitioning or just moving? | 06:14 |
| urgodfather | zee313: if that doesnt suit you, consider wine and then install readon | 06:14 |
| bjgr | hey ohsix. I have updated the bios now, but I don't think that worked. The update involved usb, freedos and wine (not drinking) so that was just great! | 06:14 |
| MK` | I know how to repartition it, so I guess just moving it after I do that | 06:15 |
| milamber | MK`: if you already know how to repartition it shouldn't be bad. | 06:15 |
| urgodfather | can someone please answer my question? | 06:15 |
| Jon-- | Khisanth, Agreed but how do I set the Y axis of the gnome panel in a text file? Click and drag moves it a LARGE distance the first time it moves. | 06:15 |
| Jon-- | Like.. nearly underneath my window title large | 06:15 |
| Jon-- | I'd be accidentally mousing over it a lot | 06:15 |
| urgodfather | or point me the right way | 06:15 |
| milamber | MK`: this is for the home directory, but still relevant | 06:16 |
| milamber | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 06:16 |
| MK` | yeah I read that. Is it the same for the other ones? | 06:16 |
| bjgr | ohsix, now i'll look at that bug report to see if I can figure out what they are saying | 06:16 |
| Jon-- | How do I run multiple commands in a bash script that won't terminate? | 06:16 |
| Jon-- | Trying to run two conky files, but my script waits until one is terminated before running the second D: | 06:16 |
| Jon-- | There has to be a way to do this without writing two bash files... | 06:16 |
| milamber | Jon--: adding the ampersand should cause the program to launch into the background | 06:17 |
| Jon-- | milamber, durrrrr | 06:17 |
| Jon-- | My bad | 06:17 |

| ckwalsh | Anyone have any success with pptp vpns on Ubuntu 10.10? | 06:41 |
| ckwalsh | It appears the network-manager-pptp package requires a helper binary | 06:41 |
| ckwalsh | /usr/bin/nm-ppp-starter or something like that | 06:41 |
| ckwalsh | but it's missing and I don't know where to find it | 06:41 |
| jhf_ | bullgard4, only happens with that one video | 06:41 |
| bjgr | bullgard4, dmesg says: [ 0.000000] ACPI: DSDT 000000007f68838c 06796 (v02 IEC___ S11_____ 06040000 INTL 20050624) | 06:42 |
| bullgard4 | jhf_: I have no idea why this appears only with this one video. | 06:42 |
| bjgr | bullgard4, and [ 0.361693] ACPI: EC: Look up EC in DSDT | 06:42 |
| bjgr | bullgard4, does that mean anything to you | 06:43 |
| bullgard4 | bjgr: Yes. | 06:43 |
| violets | hi | 06:43 |
| bjgr | bullgard4, that's great :-) | 06:44 |
| bjgr | bullgard4, can I get the dsdt table (or what ever it is) from that? | 06:44 |
| bullgard4 | bjgr: I don't know. You did not give enough details. | 06:45 |
| atpa8a_ | hello | 06:45 |
| === atpa8a_ is now known as atpa8a | ||
| atpa8a | hmm | 06:46 |
| atpa8a | what order do K sysv scripts execute? | 06:46 |
| violets | atpa8a: using the numbers in the symlink name, in increasing order | 06:47 |
| atpa8a | so... K18 will shutdown earlier then K81, right? | 06:47 |
| violets | should do, yes | 06:47 |
| atpa8a | strange... | 06:48 |
| ry | is there any reason i wouldnt have a xorg.conf under /etc in ubuntu 10.10? | 06:48 |
| atpa8a | may be not... | 06:48 |
| ry | (looking over some stuff trying to get my apple magic touchpad working) | 06:49 |
| milamber | ry: no xorg.conf in a long time | 06:49 |
| bjgr | bullgard4, OK... the bug report I linked earlier has an instruction to do the following: sudo cat /proc/acpi/dsdt > dsdt.dat | 06:49 |
| violets | ry: Ubuntu doesn't make an xorg.conf by default any more. | 06:49 |
| ry | ahh | 06:49 |
| ry | this guide is from like 6 months ago | 06:49 |
| ry | is it optional to generate or what? | 06:49 |
| yinee-gay | 中文在哪个频道？ | 06:49 |
| ry | where would i locate the same settings? | 06:49 |
| violets | ry: if you make one, it'll use it | 06:49 |
| milamber | ry: it is optional | 06:49 |
| bjgr | bullgard4, but my system doesn't have that dsdt part under /proc. So now I'm look for alternative ways to get it | 06:49 |
| milamber | ry: you can create your own, but there is not one by default | 06:50 |

| Awake_Atlast | Worth it to upgrade from UBUNTU 8.04? | 06:53 |
| milamber | !8.04 | 06:54 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (Hardy Heron) was the eighth release of Ubuntu. Downloading: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04 - See !lts for more details. | 06:54 |

| jasonmchristos | violets, ill try that one | 06:55 |
| Awake_Atlast | eol? | 06:55 |
| bullgard4 | bjgr: If your system does not show a meaningful content in /proc/acpi/dsdt then your chances to get the contents of DSDT are dim. To make the best out of the situation is to analyze what dmesg says about DSDT. (You already started doing so but your report was incomplete.) Often, manufacturers do not implement the DSDT according to ACPI specification, and Linux/Ubuntu cannot use the "DSDT"... | 06:55 |
| bullgard4 | ...information which the manufacturer provided. | 06:55 |

| jasonmchristos | how do i verify the sources of my apt-get are not tampered with everytime I install ubuntu i get the same two updates asked for and i think they are injecting trojan horse with the auto update feature and once i was even bluepilled and they used suckit to clone my system and run me remotley from a VM | 06:57 |
| Awake_Atlast | gotta trust the depository | 06:57 |
| elijahsh | hi! I have problem with iptables and ssh in ubuntu 10.10 server. I found script for iptables and use them. But I don't understand them well. http://pastebin.com/f0QNeQ3C . This script allow me to connect to my host from internet via ssh. But when I start download in transmission-daemon I can't connect to ssh. Transmission is not the problem (rates are half of channel wide and so on). I found that in last line where no NEW in state clause. When I add NEW to | 06:58 |
| violets | jasonmchristos: Check the MD5SUM of your CD. You can verify the MD5SUM files with gnupg. Legitimate copies of Ubuntu automatically check the cryptographic signatures of updates. | 06:58 |

| jubei | guys how can I get a list of my installed packages so that I can install them in a new ubuntu box? | 06:59 |
| violets | !clone | jubei | 06:59 |
| ubottu | jubei: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 06:59 |
| jubei | violets, thank you | 06:59 |
| bjgr | OK... new plan. Does anybody know of an alternative battery indicator for Natty/Unity. Something that is not Gnome Power Manager? | 06:59 |
| WACOMalt_ | hello there. Wondering if anyone can help me set up my Ubuntu VPS as a proxy server? | 06:59 |
| iceroot | bjgr: #ubuntu+1 | 06:59 |
| violets | bjgr: try #ubuntu+1 for natty discussion and support | 06:59 |
| bjgr | Doesn't have to do power management, just show battery charge. | 06:59 |
| jasonmchristos | milamber, thanks i will study up on debsig-verify | 06:59 |
| mehdi | hey folks after installing ubuntu how can i have my program without updating? | 06:59 |
| bjgr | violets, thx | 06:59 |
| iceroot | mehdi: ? | 06:59 |
| WACOMalt_ | mehdi: ? | 06:59 |
| bullgard4 | jasonmchristos: Carefully check in Synaptic the repository addresses. Compare them with a reliable collection of a friend. | 06:59 |
| violets | mehdi: please rephrase your question | 07:00 |
| jasonmchristos | violets, i understand that part but the automatic updates makes a convinient hole to inject trojan horses disguised as legitimite security updates | 07:00 |
| violets | jasonmchristos: do you trust Ubuntu's developers? | 07:00 |
| mehdi | for example u have two pcs that one of them have the application u need on it | 07:01 |
| mehdi | anthe other just installed ubuntu | 07:01 |
| jasonmchristos | violets, i dont know them but its a calculated risk to use this great software, but its random people that i dont want to calculate risk for | 07:01 |
| mehdi | i wonder is there anyway that it became ike the other one without internet connection?(maybe by chaching apt-get) | 07:01 |
| violets | jasonmchristos: If you don't, then use another distribution. If you do, then *all* updates are signed by Ubuntu's archive key, which is only available to Ubuntu developers, and apt-get *always* checks and will notify you of signature errors. | 07:02 |
| jasonmchristos | bullgard4, is it true that the repository addresses are a round robin of mirrors much like irc.freenode.net | 07:02 |
| WACOMalt_ | oh, you want one ubuntu machine to be in the same updated state as the other, but it has no internet? | 07:02 |
| elijahsh | jasonmchristos: Thanks, but I want to understand iptables well. I want to use in my work. I can't find in manuals why this happens. Thats why I'm asking. | 07:02 |
| iceroot | !offline | mehdi | 07:02 |
| ubottu | mehdi: If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script. Alternatively, try http://ubottu.com/ljl/apt/ - See also !APTonCD | 07:02 |
| violets | jasonmchristos: So you just need to get a correct copy of the archive key, which is installed by default on Ubuntu, so you just need to check your CD, hence what I said. | 07:03 |
| jasonmchristos | elijahsh, do man iptables print it and study it | 07:03 |
| bullgard4 | jasonmchristos: No. | 07:04 |
| mehdi | @<ubottu> even in install packages from synaptic u need internet connection | 07:04 |
| mehdi | i wanto to do it as <iceroot> says offline | 07:05 |
| violets | mehdi: You don't need an internet connection to generate a package download script. | 07:05 |
| jasonmchristos | bullgard4, ok will take a look | 07:06 |
| mehdi | @<violets> how can i do it? | 07:06 |
| violets | mehdi: step 1) read what ubottu said | 07:06 |
| jasonmchristos | violets, this electric sheep is nice | 07:06 |
| Lewoco | Is there any way to create an access point using network manager? | 07:08 |

| amin | hi guys I want to install virtualBox but in software manager is 2 of them actually tree on nonfree one vb-ose one vb-osegt | 07:10 |
| violets | bullgard4: /bin/nc is set by the 'nc' alternative. For information on modifying the alternatives system, see man update-alternatives | 07:11 |

| violets | hi | 07:12 |
| odix | i cant seem to get apache up, well its up, and viewable on my lan, by my machine and another on the lan when pointed to the router ip | 07:12 |
| odix | however outside looking in will not work | 07:12 |
| milamber | odix: check router config | 07:13 |
| violets | perhaps your ISP is blocking port 80 | 07:13 |
| odix | and also i want to enable home directories to be used, like /home/blah/public_html. i did not find this in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf | 07:13 |
| aelen_v | The CD/DVD lid on my laptop keeps on opening by itself today. Could it have something to do with ekiga/erlang/couchdb? | 07:13 |
| odix | hmm | 07:13 |
| odix | i did forward the ports, the same way i forwarded ssh and ssh works, maybe it is my isp | 07:13 |
| violets | sudo a2enmod userdir; sudo service apache2 restart | 07:14 |
| ohsix | aelen_v: that would be quite a trick :D is someone playing with you and running eject on your computer? | 07:14 |
| odix | its cox communicates | 07:14 |
| aelen_v | How to know it? :D | 07:15 |
| Jon-- | Missing a dependency in ./configure for installing the latest version of conky (the one in the repos is over a year old and has a really bad bug in battery_bar). Can anyone help me? Output is here http://pastebin.com/YfedJhwP | 07:16 |
| Jon-- | I did a sudo apt-get install lua5.1 and as you can see apt-cache policy says it is installed | 07:16 |
| Khisanth | aelen_v: does it continue if you disconnect the network cable/turn off wireless? :) | 07:18 |
| Khisanth | Jon--: for building stuff you usually need the -dev package as well | 07:18 |
| amin | in software manager If I want to install virtualbox what should I select vb-ose or guest version? | 07:18 |
| pvl1 | my syslog is getting flooded with acpid:, is that bad? | 07:18 |
| Khisanth | Jon--: also apt-get build-dep <name of conky package> | 07:18 |
| aelen_v | Khisanth: just turned of wireless. I'm using 3G mobile broadband. | 07:19 |
| odix | anybody know how to get home directories working with apache? | 07:19 |
| Jon-- | Khisanth, There is no conky package for 1.8.1 | 07:19 |
| Jon-- | Khisanth, Which is where this dependency was added. | 07:19 |
| amin | any one knows any software to config MIkrotik server? | 07:19 |
| Jon-- | Khisanth, It was package liblua5.1-0-dev thanks anyway. | 07:21 |
| Jon-- | Someone PLEASE update the PPA to include Conky 1.8.1 for other users. There are a couple really bad bugs and it's been out for over a year now. | 07:21 |
| Khisanth | Jon--: needing -dev still applies :) | 07:21 |

| violets | brandoney: anything relevant in /etc/network/interfaces? | 07:35 |
| violets | larious: 10.10 is not an LTS | 07:35 |

| brandoney | just auto lo and iface lo inet loopback | 07:36 |
| Jon-- | Yes. 1.8.0 across the board | 07:36 |
| ohsix | nm makes great | 07:36 |
| susundberg | violets: :) well kind of, though i guess you are correct about NetworkManager and black magic :) | 07:37 |
| ohsix | black magic insofar people don't want to know how it works, and quickly bypass it when it runs even slightly afoul of doing what they need without having to read a little about how it does it | 07:38 |
| ohsix | its completely comprehensible and even has good logging on by default | 07:38 |
| brandoney | just to make thinks better I spilled on mouse and now this computer has no mouse | 07:38 |
| odix | where is the apache conf ? | 07:38 |
| odix | so i can add mod_stuff to it ? | 07:39 |

| tarsh | hey ive set up my partitons to install linux but i dont know how to assign the mount point. wut i do? | 07:39 |
| tarsh | need to set "/" and "?home" | 07:39 |
| bullgard4 | By default nc is a softlink to /bin/nc.openbsd. What alternatives to that allows the »Alternatives« system? | 07:39 |
| arand | tarsh: You only "need" "/" | 07:40 |
| ohsix | odix: read the ubuntu-server handbook; it explains how to enable modules and sites and stuff with the builtin tools | 07:40 |
| odix | im thinking apache2.conf | 07:40 |
| odix | just trying to add user public html directores | 07:40 |
| tarsh | I do? someone told me to set a swap partiton, a 30 gig / one and the rest for /home | 07:40 |
| Jon-- | I want to create a .deb for the community for conky. The issue is that there are so many version in the repository (conky, conky-all, conky-cli, etc.). If I create one with the default configuration, and submit it, will it actually be used and updated? It's a shame that there isn't any packages for it it's been out for over a year and a half now. | 07:40 |
| tarsh | each on their own partitonn | 07:41 |
| Khisanth | bullgard4: it's nc.traditional here and no nc.openbsd on this system apparently :) | 07:41 |
| ohsix | odix: you can of course do everything manually, but there is a lot of work distilled in the tools, which you have to do yourself over and over again if you don't use them :] | 07:41 |
| brandoney | Odd, radio light is off and no bluetooth, I've been trying to figure out how to permanently turn off BT for long time. | 07:41 |
| ohsix | Jon--: you can create a ppa and host your builds with changes | 07:41 |
| arand | tarsh: swap is useful if you don't have much RAM or if you want to use hibernation. | 07:41 |
| brandoney | but nmcli nm status says wifi-hardware enabled and wifi enabled state disconnected | 07:42 |
| susundberg | tarsh: that is good partition setup imho. To have separated /home and / makes changing linux version easier .. | 07:42 |
| arand | tarsh: A separate home is useful, but not necessary | 07:42 |
| Jon-- | ohsix, Anyone competent enough to find and add a random PPA is probably competent enough to install from source, no? | 07:42 |
| Jon-- | ohsix, I might do that, but I'd rather get the packages in the main repository updated already. | 07:42 |
| tarsh | arrand: ok so all i need to do is create a partiton with / as mount point? | 07:43 |
| Awake_Atlast | There a list of non trustworthy keys? | 07:43 |
| tarsh | how do i set / as mount point | 07:43 |
| ohsix | Jon--: you still don't want to install from source, and you could just build the ppa for yourself; other people using it would be a bonus | 07:43 |
| tarsh | im using ubuntu 9.10 live cd | 07:43 |
| brandoney | I try con up with uuid from ncmcli con list and it still says device not managed, then why is it listed!! | 07:43 |
| Jon-- | ohsix, How do I create a PPA? | 07:44 |
| ohsix | Jon--: first hit on google for what you just asked | 07:45 |
| pksadiq | Jon-- go to launchpad.net | 07:45 |
| Jon-- | ohsix, Shush. :P | 07:45 |
| ohsix | Jon--: not a dig, just coincidence | 07:45 |
| tarsh | arrand: do you know how i would set the mount point? | 07:46 |
| odix | mount | 07:46 |
| odix | mount --h | 07:46 |
| tarsh | just type mount --h? | 07:47 |
| tarsh | lol | 07:47 |
| MK` | What are the gvf files in home for? | 07:48 |
| arand | tarsh: If you choose manual partitionin in the installer, you will get that option. | 07:48 |
| tarsh | arrand: when i do it only gives me the option to set the name and not the mount point | 07:49 |
| tarsh | is that the same? | 07:49 |
| gorlak | which is better for a small file server, nfs, or using sshfs to connect into the system | 07:49 |
| tarsh | when i hit install it said no root file system defined please correct this in partiton manager | 07:50 |
| tarsh | what does that mean? | 07:50 |
| MK` | tarsh are you using the installer on a liveCD? | 07:51 |
| arand | tarsh: You haven't set a "/" mountpoint. | 07:51 |
| lahwran | is there an easy way to sort processes by how much disk space use they're causing? | 07:51 |
| tarsh | MK: no i am using a usb with unetbootin | 07:51 |
| arand | tarsh: You are likely looking in the wrong place | 07:51 |
| lahwran | errr, how much disk communication* | 07:51 |
| Jon-- | I'm creating a PPA for conky 1.8.1, should I have my own or is there a popular user PPA I could add it too or? | 07:52 |
| tarsh | hmm well is 11.04 stable enough for everyday use or should i go with 10.10? | 07:52 |
| MK` | ah I can't help then. | 07:52 |
| arand | tarsh: It is still beta | 07:52 |
| tarsh | ah | 07:53 |
| lahwran | end of the month right? | 07:53 |
| MeltingK3yboard | hey there | 07:53 |
| lahwran | for 11.04 | 07:53 |

| h3r0_ | brandoney: im using horde as interface... but i can't find any spam box | 08:10 |
| odix | ;p | 08:10 |
| brandoney | you are using port25 of your webmail server as the outgoing server for opmanager to send messages? | 08:10 |
| odix | how do i bind apache to another port besides 80 | 08:10 |
| h3r0_ | ahaa yes.... actually i saw my senior put it like that... | 08:11 |
| ohsix | read the manual, <Listen accepts a port argument | 08:11 |
| brandoney | try poping mail first or adding password for smtp | 08:11 |
| h3r0_ | oh okay thank you very much i will do it :) | 08:12 |

| ubottu | Jon--, please see my private message | 08:15 |
| odix | hmm' | 08:15 |
| geegeegee | how do i stop a group using a cirtain command | 08:15 |
| odix | there should be a way to connect to a lan ip behind a router in a more effecient way | 08:15 |
| odix | like ftp themac@theip or ftp thehostname@theip | 08:16 |
| pyus | make a new cat5 cable? | 08:16 |
| pyus | o | 08:16 |
| odix | all using the same port | 08:16 |
| brandoney | Okay so now I do dmesg | grep iwl3945 and get a bunch of Radio disabled by HW RF Kill switch where do I get one of those? | 08:17 |
| Khisanth | odix: you mean instead of setting up the forwarding? | 08:17 |
| odix | yes | 08:17 |
| geegeegee | How do i stop a group of users using a specific command? | 08:18 |
| Khisanth | I don't think there is anything at the ip layer that can do that in IPv4, maybe in IPv6 | 08:19 |
| Khisanth | seems doubtful | 08:19 |
| odix | ya.. | 08:19 |
| odix | they should make it like that | 08:19 |
| odix | be good for servers to, easier maybe | 08:20 |
| odix | when server as is to full reroute to b@ip | 08:20 |
| Khisanth | especially since there are things that specifically try to prevent outsiders from figuring out the internal addresses :) | 08:20 |
| Medics | Hello World! | 08:21 |
| Khisanth | odix: exposing the internal ip would prevent that kind of thing(load balancing) | 08:21 |
| Jernej_Work | on ubuntu server.. how do i run mysql under my local user? | 08:21 |
| odix | i got you | 08:21 |
| jjp_ | Jernej: mean mysql server or mysql client ? | 08:22 |
| odix | just saying on top of ips we could have aname@theip | 08:22 |
| odix | it would make the internet that much bigger | 08:22 |
| roland | how to get usbfs working? | 08:22 |
| geegeegee | How do i stop a group of users using a specific command? | 08:22 |
| ikonia | geegeegee: change the permissions on the command file ? | 08:22 |
| odix | well i guess we do with routers, but it would be easier if you could connect a name to that ip behind the router and use it throughb the internet | 08:22 |
| odix | without portfowarding | 08:23 |
| odix | makes way more sense | 08:23 |
| ikonia | odix: what are you talking about ? | 08:23 |
| brandoney | you could build a tunnel through the router and the set a sub interface to that tunneled lan | 08:23 |
| Khisanth | that would also require giving out two different addresses for everything | 08:24 |
| Khisanth | but this is also very much off topic | 08:24 |
| odix | yep | 08:24 |
| brandoney | http initiated ipsec tunnel?"; | 08:24 |
| odix | go beyond http tho | 08:25 |
| odix | anyway | 08:25 |
| brandoney | the website initiates tunnel for youl | 08:25 |
| Khisanth | odix: the biggest problem for this is that over 0 advantages :) | 08:26 |
| odix | ? | 08:27 |
| odix | the biggest advantage i can see is portforwarding | 08:27 |
| ikonia | why is this anything to do with ubuntu ? | 08:27 |

| ikonia | geegeegee: 700 will lock it to just you | 08:44 |
| ohsix | it should already be that way | 08:45 |
| ohsix | or rather, important things have permissions on them so they can't be viewed | 08:45 |

| ravenreturns | ah q and a my mistake, starts next week | 09:22 |
| playingnatty | hungry, you can attemp a windows boot repair using a windows install disk. you would choose repair instead of install. (its an option) | 09:22 |
| hungry | and i will still be able to dual boot? | 09:22 |
| ejv | playingnatty: don't just jump in helping people if you don't know his issue, he wants to *dual* boot. not wipe out ubuntu's loader. | 09:23 |

| genii-around | !eol | 09:24 |
| ubottu | End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 09:24 |
| ejv | again hungry, what do you see when you reach the menu upon start up... | 09:24 |
| genii-around | 9.10 was not ever an LTS release | 09:24 |
| ejv | is there just one entry for ubuntu? several? is there in fact one for windows listed? | 09:24 |
| hungry | when i start its black with white text and asks me if i want to boot windows 7 or ubuntu | 09:24 |
| hungry | one for windows one for ubuntu | 09:25 |
| hungry | usually i would pick windows and it would boot | 09:25 |
| hungry | or if i pick ubuntu it then takes me to a list of ubuntu and then boots | 09:25 |
| tlk | genii-around: oops, ok thanks | 09:25 |
| ejv | now we're getting somewhere... :) | 09:25 |
| hungry | windows boots fine. but when i pick ubuntu it now goes to white text saying windows failed to boot | 09:25 |
| hungry | even though i picked ubuntu | 09:25 |
| tlk | genii-around: the Releases page says End of life date: April 2011, do you know if that means april 1st or 30th? | 09:26 |

| ejv | hungry: that description you gave right there, *that's* how thorough you should be always, when asking for support here ;) | 09:26 |
| hungry | sorry :-/ | 09:26 |
| ejv | np, so it did in fact work at some point, any major changes that you made? | 09:27 |
| genii-around | tlk: Not sure. But if apt-get update for instance fails, change url in sources.list file to have old-releases.ubuntu.com instead of archive.ubuntu.com | 09:28 |
| === WinstonSmith_ is now known as WinstonSmith | ||
| hungry | yeah it was ubuntu 10.10 with windows 7. at one point i ran bootrec /fixmbr and it made the bootloader look different. i assume its now windows bootloader and no longer grub? | 09:28 |
| hungry | but then | 09:28 |
| hungry | i deleted all partitons except windows just now | 09:29 |

| foofoobar_ | sfire||mouse, looks nice! | 10:03 |
| foofoobar_ | You do not have a password on your root mysql?? | 10:04 |

| ikonia | opticx: can you please show me the output of "id" from your current user | 10:04 |
| foofoobar_ | sfire||mouse, and the best way is to run this via cron, right? | 10:05 |

| ikonia | opticx: "sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server" | 10:24 |
| jennifer | i went into terminal and cd /boot/grub and then used sudo gedit grub.cfg and changed set timeout=10 to set timeout=0 is this the correct way to make it load the default automatic and skip grub ? | 10:24 |
| erUSUL | jennifer: no; that fie is overwritten by system scripts. the correct way is editing /etc/default/grub | 10:25 |

| PleuR | opticx, just do a "gnome-terminal -e sudo" ? | 10:56 |
| opticx | so i didnt have to sudo | 10:56 |

| ikonia | opticx: showing a database is basic | 11:10 |
| opticx | ive never used it like this | 11:10 |
| ikonia | opticx: did it work | 11:10 |
| opticx | yea | 11:10 |

| angramanyu | Hello. I am on Ubuntu Lucid Lynx and I was wondering how exactly do I install gcc-4.5, g++-4.5? I'm needing it to compile BSNES. | 11:13 |
| ikonia | angramanyu: the short answer is install the package "build-essential" | 11:13 |
| opticx | i appreciate your help | 11:13 |
| spirytusick | angramanyu: in the terminal windows type sudo apt-get install build-essential | 11:14 |
| opticx | i just have enough things to learn that i need to limit what i spend time on if i ever want to finish anything for a client | 11:14 |
| opticx | im sure ill get there | 11:14 |
| bullgard4 | Khisanth: '~$ aptitude search netcat' produces another 2 packages: A transitional package and an IPv6 package. | 11:14 |
| angramanyu | "build-essential is already the newest version." | 11:14 |
| ikonia | angramanyu: then you already have g++ installed | 11:15 |
| Khisanth | bullgard4: well I guess some where dropped between versoins | 11:15 |

| Dementis | okey sry | 11:48 |
| oCean | Dementis: this is ubuntu support, not chat | 11:49 |
| erUSUL | n8w_: also make sure the script can run in sh ( i.e. does not use some bash specific feature ) | 11:49 |
| Dementis | and u suk | 11:49 |
| n8w_ | Kartagis, erUSUL : one more thing, everytime the script.sh is executed i write a log,so i can cleraly see when it got triggered | 11:49 |
| n8w_ | erUSUL: ive tried both, sh / bash | 11:49 |
| oCean | n8w_: if you can see (from logging) that your script is executed, then how do you know it does not work? | 11:50 |
| n8w_ | erUSUL: i forgot to mention that i also have this in the cronjob : SHELL=/bin/bash | 11:51 |
| n8w_ | oCean: i mean if i execute the script.sh...this one writes a log | 11:51 |
| erUSUL | n8w_: so what is exactly the command you have in crontab? | 11:51 |
| Kartagis | n8w_: try 50 10 * * * /bin/bash /home/user/script.sh | 11:51 |
| n8w_ | erUSUL: tomcat restart | 11:51 |
| erUSUL | n8w_: SHELL=/bin/bash definend in the script itself makes little sense... can you post the script? | 11:52 |
| === Sa_ is now known as Saamm | ||
| n8w_ | erUSUL: well apparently not, ive read an article suggestin it... | 11:53 |
| Saamm | nyone know how to make ubuntu indicator? | 11:53 |
| Kartagis | ikonia: I was able to ssh in, but then that means useradd -p userpass user failed, because I had to do passwd user again. could that be possible? | 11:53 |
| erUSUL | n8w_: again can yu post the exact line in crontab and the script? in a pastebin | 11:53 |
| micene | hi | 11:54 |
| dsuch | Hi, I've just asked about it on #ubuntufourms but since no one's replied in an hour and a half, I thought I'd try here now. | 11:54 |
| Saamm | nyone know how to make ubuntu indicator? | 11:54 |
| dsuch | I've just released software which is very happy to run on Ubuntu (it's a security proxy) and would like to let the people on forums know about it. | 11:54 |
| nep0x | hey! anyone from holland? | 11:54 |
| dsuch | Was wondering if you could perhaps recommend the forum for sending out the announcement? The last thing I'd like to do is to have it look like some sort of spam. | 11:54 |
| dsuch | I'm browsing the list of forums and can't quite find the right place (maybe there is none?) | 11:54 |
| micene | does anyone can tell me where i can find the "loader.conf" on my system (maverick 10.10) ? thanx | 11:55 |
| n8w_ | erUSUL: w8 a sec | 11:55 |
| erUSUL | ok | 11:55 |
| nep0x | locate loader.conf | 11:55 |
| erUSUL | !nd | 11:55 |
| High_Priest | micene, and "updatedb" as root before that if needed | 11:56 |
| nep0x | find locate.conf | 11:56 |
| micene | i try tx | 11:56 |
| micene | ok | 11:56 |
| n8w_ | erUSUL: hmm it seems like it takes different timezones | 11:56 |
| erUSUL | huh? | 11:57 |
| n8w_ | erUSUL: i mean, rite now i can see that it got executed 10:50 UTC, but i kept checkin the log since 10:00... | 11:57 |
| n8w_ | erUSUL: 10:00 CEST | 11:58 |
| erUSUL | n8w_: ok so it works :) | 11:58 |
| n8w_ | erUSUL: the log gives me: Fri Apr 8 10:50:03 UTC 2011 | 11:59 |
| n8w_ | , but the date command gives me: Fri Apr 8 12:59:31 CEST 2011 | 11:59 |
| n8w_ | erUSUL: ye well i guess that it works then;) but im still kinda confused about the different timezones | 11:59 |
| Kartagis | erUSUL: I have a problem. ikonia was helping me but now it seems he's gone. the problem I'm having is, I get FAIL LOGIN in vsftpd.log. I had created the user with useradd -m -N -p userpass user, but it seems this failed, because I had to do passwd user again. any ideas why useradd -p userpass user failed? | 12:00 |
| micene | bye | 12:02 |
| nyk2005 | I just got a SheevaPlug with ubuntu installed on it. But I have a problem I can solve. Running "apt-get update" hangs at "[Connecting to ports.ubuntu.com (91.189.88.36)][Connecting to ports.ubuntu.com (91.189.88.36)][Connecting to ports.ubuntu.com (91.189.88.36)]" and then timeouts. But for example "ping google.com" works, so the connection to the inet is there. Why can it still not work? | 12:02 |
| erUSUL | Kartagis: well useradd is tricky. that password you pass to useradd -p has to be in *encrypted* form | 12:02 |
| nyk2005 | I mean: I have a problem, I can *not* solve! :) | 12:02 |
| asd2 | When I type about:config into Unity it wont do anything. I have compzconfig. How can I conf Unity? | 12:03 |
| Kartagis | erUSUL: then I must do a echo "userpass" | md5 ? | 12:03 |
| erUSUL | Kartagis: i think there is aperl oneliner to get it... | 12:03 |
| n8w_ | erUSUL: well thx for your help anywai;) | 12:03 |
| erUSUL | Kartagis: md5sum wont cut it. | 12:03 |
| asd2 | Does unity have like a configuration file where I could set autohide to false? | 12:04 |
| bittyx-laptop | can you refer me to a GUI for burning cd's in ubuntu, that has advanced options, such as burning speed, joliet names, etc. ? | 12:04 |
| Kartagis | erUSUL: I have to make a script to add the user for me. it has to also encrypt the password then | 12:05 |
| lugkhast | asd2: You can set that in CCSM | 12:05 |
| erUSUL | !info newusers | Kartagis | 12:05 |

| nyk2005 | I just got a SheevaPlug with ubuntu installed on it. But I have a problem I can not solve: Running "apt-get update" hangs at "[Connecting to ports.ubuntu.com (91.189.88.36)]", and then timeouts.

| innefu | Is there any Ubuntu mimimal available ?? where there is no Desktop manager | 12:12 |
| kawohi | I guess all the experts are asleep :) | 12:13 |
| innefu | nyk2005, try setting up local mirror !! btw which version are you using ?? | 12:13 |
| innefu | nyk2005, you can also configure different mirror.. | 12:13 |
| Kartagis | !ask | kawohi | 12:14 |
| ubottu | kawohi: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 12:14 |
| Kartagis | innefu: you could try ubuntu server | 12:14 |
| kawohi | I been trying to share some files from my windows 7 laptop, with no success. I installed Samba but I still don't see nothing in Places->Network->PC | 12:14 |
| Kartagis | kawohi: are they in the same workgroup or in the same subnet? | 12:15 |
| innefu | Kartagis, I want minimal Ubuntu ?? how i can do it | 12:15 |
| Kartagis | !minimal | 12:16 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 12:16 |
| Polah | innefu: You need to get the minimal ISO | 12:16 |
| kawohi | I have no idea. I'm kind of a noobie with this stuff. I did turn on home sharing on windows 7 tho. They are in the same network | 12:16 |
| Kartagis | innefu: ^^ | 12:16 |
| nyk2005 | ineefu: It has "deb http://ports.ubuntu.com jaunty main restricted universe multiverse" in /etc/apt/sources.list. I could not find a mirror for it. But why does it need a local mirror? I have a net connection. | 12:16 |
| Kartagis | !minimal | innefu | 12:16 |
| ubottu | innefu: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 12:16 |
| innefu | Polah, will minimal CD (12Mb) download extra package form Internet ........... I do not want pakage.. I just want plain terminal !! | 12:17 |
| Polah | innefu: Yes. If you want to install things from the minimal ISO it needs to downloadi t | 12:17 |
| Polah | If you don't install anything, you'll have the command line, and a small handful of some other stuff, I don't know what exactly. | 12:18 |
| innefu | Polah, I just want terminal and no desktop manager - will minimal CD help me ? | 12:18 |
| Polah | Yes. | 12:18 |
| kawohi | So... does anybody know how can I access my files? | 12:18 |
| Polah | kawohi: What's up with them? | 12:18 |
| Boothk | what's up kawohi? | 12:18 |
| GOMI | can i use "envy" for my nvidia card because of the problems of flickering ??? | 12:19 |
| kawohi | I want to access my other files on my Windows 7 desktop. I set up home sharing and I still don't the files in places > network | 12:19 |
| kawohi | only the computer name. | 12:19 |
| nyk2005 | ineefu: the strange thing is, I cannot ping ports.ubuntu.com, but ubuntu.com works! | 12:19 |
| Boothk | kawohi: Personally, I use an FTP server on my PC for file sharing. So much more simpler than messing with shared folders | 12:20 |
| nyk2005 | ineefu: but I can reach http://ports.ubuntu.com from my browser. Very strange! | 12:20 |
| Jernej_Work | i have a beand new issue: i cannot run any programs.. i'm in the program's dir but it says it can't find the file when i execute it.. | 12:21 |
| kawohi | What would I need to start doing that? | 12:21 |

| Jernej_Work | -rwxrwxrwx 1 ps ps 11104 2011-04-08 02:33 announce | 12:21 |
| Jernej_Work | when i run it with ./announce | 12:22 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: run "ls -la" against the file name you want to execute | 12:22 |
| Jernej_Work | -bash: ./announce: No such file or directory | 12:22 |
| Jernej_Work | i already did that | 12:22 |
| Flannel | Jernej_Work: Your paste had "announce*" as the filename | 12:22 |
| BentFranklin | A file is called "foo". stat("Foo"), stat("FOO") and stat("foO") all return "foo"'s fileinfo. How I turn off case-folding for stat? | 12:22 |
| Jernej_Work | announce is the name of the program. | 12:22 |
| Boothk | kawohi: I use Filezilla. Whether or not it works on Linux is beyond me. But you can generally download from FTP using most web browsers (i.e. ftp://192.168.1.2) | 12:22 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: it sounds like missing dynamic libraries | 12:22 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: run "file announce" please | 12:22 |
| Jernej_Work | announce: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, stripped | 12:22 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: ldd announce (put it in a pastebin) | 12:23 |
| Boothk | kawohi: so if you set up a server on your win7 machine, you could download from it, but not upload | 12:23 |
| kawohi | I don't need a host or anything? Also I have a pretty weak internet connection atm. | 12:23 |
| Boothk | kawohi: Host it on a LAN. That's what you're doing, isn't it? | 12:23 |
| Kartagis | ikonia: do you know what encryption user passwords use? | 12:23 |
| ikonia | Kartagis: sha I think | 12:23 |
| kawohi | I guess. | 12:23 |
| Jernej_Work | there is no ldd | 12:23 |
| Jernej_Work | apt-get can't find it either | 12:23 |
| Boothk | Kawohi: Also, type my name to address me. It's easy to lose messages in a huge IRC like this | 12:24 |
| Polah | Kartagis, ikonia, some people were discussing this yesterday. Someone said SHA512 | 12:24 |
| GOMI | my pc is kicking me out every time to the login screen ? | 12:24 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: ldd should be on your machine | 12:24 |
| kawohi | Boothk: yeah I always forget too. Ok I will. | 12:24 |
| Jernej_Work | ah wait | 12:24 |
| GOMI | and shuts down all programs i was working on | 12:24 |
| Jernej_Work | ps@ID7382:~/samp03$ ldd announce | 12:24 |
| Jernej_Work | not a dynamic executable | 12:24 |
| r4y | how do I move a hidden file from the terminal? | 12:24 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: there you go | 12:24 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: thats the problem | 12:24 |
| Jernej_Work | ? | 12:24 |
| edwinkcw | r4y: mv .filename location | 12:24 |
| Jernej_Work | explain? | 12:24 |
| ikonia | Kartagis: just told you the problem | 12:24 |
| kawohi | Boothk: I have a really weak web connection. whats the best option for me you think? | 12:24 |
| fairuz | r4y: like a normal file | 12:25 |
| r4y | that easy, great, thank you | 12:25 |
| Polah | r4y: Just do the same as you would for any other file. Just put the . before it as it is in its name | 12:25 |
| ikonia | Kartagis: sorry, not you | 12:25 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: ldd just told you the problem | 12:25 |
| Boothk | r4y: use cd to navigate to the folder, use ls -a to show the hidden files, use rm -R to delete entire folders | 12:25 |
| Homely_Girl | Hi guys, have upgraded to Maverick (wow, so smooth) but cannot get my HP1000 printer working! Can anyone help? I found a forum all in higher geek speak! :( | 12:25 |
| Jernej_Work | it's saying the exe is no good? | 12:25 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: where did you get it | 12:25 |
| Polah | Boothk: I believe that's -r for recursive removal | 12:25 |
| Jernej_Work | from another server. | 12:25 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: can you link me to it ? | 12:25 |
| Jernej_Work | copied it over with winscp and uploaded to new one | 12:25 |
| Boothk | kawohi: Just so we're clear - both your linux and windows computers are on the same network? | 12:26 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: ahh, it's missing dependencies in the libraries | 12:26 |
| Polah | Boothk, apparently it can use both. My mistake. | 12:26 |
| Jernej_Work | i guess i can just download it again in a different way? | 12:26 |
| r4y | I asked because of the last comment from this link: | 12:26 |
| r4y | http://serverfault.com/questions/231983/move-files-from-subfolder-to-current-folder | 12:26 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: it looks like it was linked against libraries on the other machine that are not on this machine | 12:26 |
| bazhang | check linuxprinting.org Homely_Girl | 12:26 |
| kawohi | Boothk: Yes | 12:26 |
| Homely_Girl | bazhang: Will do, thanks. | 12:26 |
| verac | Homely_Girl: i think it's fair assessment to say you need to find a local nerd | 12:26 |
| Jernej_Work | ikonia, the program isn't linked to any specific libraries other than stock ones.. | 12:26 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: how do you know ? | 12:26 |
| Jernej_Work | it's a simple announce program for sa-mp dedicated server | 12:26 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: what operating system was it on the old one | 12:26 |
| Jernej_Work | same as this one. | 12:27 |
| Boothk | kawohi: Then your internet connection is completely irrelevant. The computers will connect directly without having to go online at all | 12:27 |
| Homely_Girl | verac: It would seem they are still asleep!! I did find a local lug, but nobody's home!! | 12:27 |
| Jernej_Work | ubuntu server 10-10 | 12:27 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work ok so you need to look at what libraries are missing/diferent between the two | 12:27 |
| r4y | anyways thank you | 12:27 |
| verac | Homely_Girl: bummer. well, good luck anyways :) | 12:27 |

| Homely_Girl | verac: Thanks, looking at linuxprinting now.... | 12:27 |
| edwinkcw | Jernej_Work: do you compile the program again in other computer? | 12:28 |
| Jernej_Work | i wan the program on old version. | 12:28 |
| Jernej_Work | i didn't compile this | 12:28 |
| Kartagis | useradd -m -N -p `echo "somepasswd"|sha512sum` abcuser <--- why wouldn't this work? | 12:28 |
| edwinkcw | Jernej_Work: you just use a file compiled from other computer? | 12:28 |
| Jernej_Work | yes. | 12:28 |
| kawohi | Aw... Actually... I'm using my windows 7 and Connectify to make a hotspot so I have a strong connection in my room. and connecting to the connectify hotspot.. not the connection my laptop is using | 12:28 |
| Boothk | Kartagis: Ha! I had the same problem today! | 12:28 |
| Jernej_Work | a executable which just sends a http request and nothing else. | 12:28 |
| edwinkcw | can you try compile it? | 12:29 |
| Jernej_Work | it's not linked to any magical libraries. | 12:29 |

But "ping ubuntu.com" works, so the connection to the inet is there. It has "deb http://ports.ubuntu.com jaunty main restricted universe multiverse" in /etc/apt/sources.list. Strangely, "ping ports.ubuntu.com" does not work, but I can connect to http://ports.ubuntu.co | 12:30 |
| nyk2005 | m from my laptop. What could be the problem? | 12:30 |
| Boothk | Kartagis: Runs adduser, and sends the password info in via echo | 12:30 |
| Kartagis | Boothk: wow, relief | 12:30 |

| Kartagis | let me try that | 12:30 |
| * Boothk reads up because he missed something Kawohi said, which wasn't addressed to him =/ | 12:31 | |
| Boothk | Kawohi: You've got several options. If you're using the internet to do this (both machines connecting online via different connections), then it's a bit more complicated and more than I've done | 12:32 |

| omid | how can i add thunderbird and pidgin to the pannel applet instead of evolution and empathy? | 12:45 |
| Kartagis | omid: right click on the panel and add from there | 12:46 |
| Kartagis | Boothk: I tried what you suggested and now my /etc/shadow looks like this: bilgisayarciniz.org:!:15072:0:99999:7::: | 12:47 |
| Jernej_Work | so what is /lib/ld-linux.so.2 ? | 12:47 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: link library | 12:47 |
| Jernej_Work | i mean it is part of what? | 12:47 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: dynamic linker | 12:47 |
| Jernej_Work | what do i need to get to have it :> | 12:47 |
| ikonia | Jernej_Work: anyway, as you said, "no libraries are missing" | 12:48 |

| omid | Kartagis i want to have thunderbird and pidgin on the pannel mail applet which is now belongs to empathy and evolution. | 12:48 |
| Kartagis | Boothk: it didn't assign a password I'm afraid | 12:49 |
| Jernej_Work | why are you being such a douche now. I was sure no libraries were missing as i was used to linux telling me about missing libraries in the past, i never saw it fail silently with file not found errors.. | 12:49 |
| Boothk | Kartagis: It didn't tell you that when you executed the command? | 12:49 |

| oxodesign | hi my apache runs under www-data user, why on earth when creating a new directory with "mkdir" (PHP) does that folder get as owner the "root" user? | 13:10 |
| ActionParsnip | hutch: I've used Mint once, didn't like it | 13:10 |
| === noparkinghere is now known as _`-_2-1-``_`` | ||
| edwinkcw | oxodesign: because you use mkdir with sudo | 13:10 |
| hutch | ActionParsnip, np it was just that that particular edition is based on Debian testing (rolling release) rather than 6 monthly ubuntu based cycle | 13:11 |
| oxodesign | also can I somehow add permissions to a folder so all child folders that are created later will inherit that permission? | 13:11 |
| ActionParsnip | hutch: yeah, its different. Could be interesting :) | 13:11 |
| oxodesign | edwinkcw: its not me how does that its php :) | 13:12 |

| edwinkcw | curious question, is it worthy to use latest version of Ubuntu? Should I keep using LTS version? | 13:41 |
| obscurant1st | edwinkcw, if you are planning on upgrading to every version that ubuntu team comes up with, then upgrade it, else use the LTS version | 13:42 |
| ActionParsnip | edwinkcw: is Lucid doing what you need? | 13:42 |

| thebleeding | ActionParsnip, Its either instly fast or fast | 14:00 |

| dragonlive24 | sorry | 14:02 |
| oxbat | my computer is broken ,can't startX.I don't know why | 14:02 |
| rambo3 | mathlab | 14:03 |
| Kartagis | jrib: adduser asks the password separately and useradd doesn't encrypt the password | 14:03 |
| vectory | dragonlive24: use octave# | 14:03 |
| dragonlive24 | I'm sorry | 14:03 |
| ActionParsnip | oxbat: run: less /var/log/Xorg.0.log and read, use Q to exit and cursors to scroll | 14:03 |
| vectory | dragonlive24: it uses slmost identical syntasx and is free | 14:03 |
| mellin | oxbat: That doesn't mean the computer is broken..probably just X | 14:03 |

| nyuszika7h | sometimes when I hold the mouse cursor then I can't release it and mouse is broken :( what's happening? | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip | hsuh: could call it in /etc/rc.local | 14:04 |
| jrib | hsuh: you should pastebin your upstart script | 14:04 |
| oxbat | sorry ,my english is poor.I don't know how to speak the question clearly | 14:04 |
| hsuh | jrib: thats more reasonable :) | 14:04 |

| brightspark | thebleeding, isn't that the point of a high dpi mouse"? | 14:05 |
| mellin | oxbat: Not a problem...just trying to be helpful | 14:05 |
| mellin | oxbat: In terms of English that is | 14:05 |
| Kartagis | jrib: can I use a var in that file? | 14:05 |
| thebleeding | no the point of a high DPI mouse is to have greater acuracy | 14:05 |
| jrib | Kartagis: var? In what sense? What do you want to accomplish? | 14:06 |
| thebleeding | When I scupt using blender or texture usinh photohop | 14:06 |

| thebleeding | you want pixel perfect acuracy | 14:06 |
| hsuh | so the upstart script is here http://paste.ubuntu.com/591234/, it lives in /etc/init, it is chmod u+x, and start omg, stop omg work as expected | 14:06 |

| hsuh | Kartagis, ActionParsnip: i didn't quite get your suggestions.. | 14:07 |
| oxbat | acturally,the question is windows question.maybe virus..then ubuntu can't boot and windows is can't start too. | 14:07 |
| jrib | Kartagis: What do you want to accomplish? | 14:07 |
| Kartagis | hsuh: man update-rc.d | 14:07 |
| ActionParsnip | hsuh: /etc/rc.local is ran just before the login screen. If you add commands in there it will be executed (add them ABOVE the exit 0 line) | 14:08 |
| hsuh | ActionParsnip: i'm using upstart, thats what i wanted to get working :) | 14:08 |
| mellin | thebleeding: Another example of what a simple google search will get you. If anyone had a solution for you I would presume they would have told you http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=7087 | 14:08 |

| jrib | Kartagis: if you omit the uid, then the next available one will be used (see « man newusers ») | 14:12 |
| edwinkcw | aeon-ltd: I am using irssi exactly | 14:12 |
| ljsoftnet | edwinkcw have you tried xchat? | 14:12 |
| aeon-ltd | karthee_: you use visudo | 14:12 |

| edwinkcw | I can keep my session using irssi | 14:13 |
| ActionParsnip | obscurant1st: ok then try renaming ~/.mozilla then rerun the browser. I don't use firefox so am not much help but certainly can help diagnose | 14:13 |
| edwinkcw | but I don't know how to do that in xchat | 14:13 |

| ubottu | As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 14:14 |
| edwinkcw | I can use screen with irssi so I can use my irc everywhere | 14:14 |
| karthee_ | aeon-ltd: i ve added username ALL=(ALL) ALL .. in visudo and also in /etc/sudoers | 14:14 |
| aeon-ltd | karthee_: via 'sudo visudo' ? | 14:14 |
| damno | nyuszika7h, gnu | 14:14 |
| nyuszika7h | damno: Hm, never used that... but the normal one works fine on Ubuntu, too. | 14:15 |
| damno | I didnt know the tab feature | 14:15 |
| karthee_ | aeon-ltd: yes .. i tried with that .. | 14:15 |

| damno | nyuszika7h, wl try that | 14:15 |
| damno | but lostirc is good | 14:15 |
| obscurant1st | not blank page, the the place where letters are supposed to come, that place is blank | 14:15 |
| ActionParsnip | obscurant1st: ok then rename the old folder back, restoring your old settings | 14:16 |
| obscurant1st | ok | 14:16 |
| edwinkcw | obscurant1st: maybe the worst case is you switch to use chrome :P | 14:16 |
| ActionParsnip | obscurant1st: so now we know its an app issue, not settings | 14:16 |
| obscurant1st | done | 14:16 |

| obscurant1st | ActionParsnip, so reinstalling might be able to fix it? | 14:16 |
| ActionParsnip | obscurant1st: thats as far as I can go, I ditched firefox ages ago and use arora and chromium daily | 14:16 |
| obscurant1st | edwinkcw, its already ff4 | 14:16 |

| damno | vectory | 14:19 |
| edwinkcw | vectory: it seems that you want to do something different | 14:19 |
| jrib | Kartagis: so now that you know how to use newuser, you give up on newuser... If you don't want to have a password prompt, you should probably use useradd, not adduser. If you want to use adduser, then probably the best approach is to create the account, then set the password with passwd (see --stdin option to passwd) | 14:20 |
| damno | anybody? | 14:20 |
| edwinkcw | ActionParsnip: thanks, but I still a die-hard friend of Firefox. | 14:20 |
| damno | form gconf editor? can it be done? | 14:21 |
| jrib | Kartagis: hmm, apparently no such option on ubuntu. So your choices are use newusers or useradd | 14:21 |
| vectory | damno: mebbe u can alter the current theme, do u want it totally transparent? | 14:21 |
| damno | nop | 14:21 |
| vectory | damno: i have no clue | 14:21 |
| damno | the crrent theme is ubu studio | 14:21 |
| damno | some dialogues are transparent tho | 14:21 |
| damno | not the login one | 14:22 |
| crischan | i tried to install natty beta1 and get failures. "dpkg error" when using the gui installer and "no kernel image found" with the console installer. how can i fix this? | 14:22 |

| vectory | edwinkcw: what if hes .jp? | 14:23 |
| crischan | all failed | 14:23 |
| jrib | Kartagis: we arleady established that if you omit uid, newusers automatically uses an unused one. Alternatively, you can pass the hashed password to useradd if you want to do that | 14:23 |
| bazhang | vectory, he's not | 14:23 |
| ActionParsnip | edwinkcw: midori uses the same one as firefox but chews a shedload LESS resources | 14:23 |

| damno | crischan, were u trying from usb? | 14:24 |
| edwinkcw | ActionParsnip: just curious how much chrome better than FF. I always click FF instead of Chrome. | 14:24 |

| crischan | jup | 14:24 |
| crischan | yes | 14:24 |
| edwinkcw | That's my "habbit" | 14:24 |
| hermitduan | what habbit? | 14:25 |
| Kartagis | jrib: does newusers have a conf I can set the defaults in? | 14:25 |
| edwinkcw | hermitduan: launching FF instead of Chrome | 14:25 |
| damno | crischan, that gave errors for me too | 14:25 |
| jrib | Kartagis: no. Look, newusers is used to create many accounts in batch. You create a text file with specifications on each line and then run newusers on it. You can create this text file however you want. | 14:26 |
| ActionParsnip | vectory: sure but if you need a basic browser then firefox is OTT, depends on needs | 14:26 |
| ham0 | log in | 14:26 |
| damno | crischan, you better try from live cd | 14:26 |
| edwinkcw | I intend to use Chrome but it didn't save all the tabs after I close Chrome | 14:26 |
| crischan | damno, i'll do | 14:26 |
| damno | burn one | 14:26 |

| GOMI | what kind of troubles TUlleh | 14:30 |
| Kartagis | jrib: what I am trying to do is create a user, but not have to manually encrypt like useradd expects me to do, or enter the password separately like adduser expects me to do | 14:30 |
| Tulleh | Well, I run the .run file as the root user | 14:30 |
| rodemire | damno: where do i get the repos from? | 14:30 |
| damno | Tulleh, then? | 14:30 |
| Tulleh | but I get an error saying I'm running an X server | 14:30 |
| Tulleh | and it refuses to install | 14:30 |
| damno | Tulleh, you have to stop gdm before that | 14:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Tulleh: try: sudo nvidia-xconfig then reboot | 14:31 |
| vectory | ActionParsnip: ive got 260.19.26, not *.*.06, it installed automatically (upon enabling desktop effects iirc) is that bad? | 14:31 |
| Kartagis | jrib: I just want to enter the password like createuser user pass | 14:31 |
| vectory | id rather run all new nvidia drivers, but updates dont go automatically | 14:31 |
| ActionParsnip | vectory: should be ok | 14:31 |
| Tulleh | ActionParsnip: I get a command not found error when I try that | 14:31 |
| jrib | Kartagis: well you don't manually hash the password, you run a command that does it for you (openssl passwd -crypt PASSWORD). So for example, you could do: useradd -p $(openssl passwd -crypt FOOBAR) jrib . Or you could just use newusers (though this is really meant for creation of many users from a text file) | 14:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Tulleh: how did you install the driver? | 14:32 |

| jrib | Kartagis: keep in mind, if you want to use useradd, you'll likely want to create a home directory and set the user's shell to something other than sh | 14:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Tulleh: did you use the binary from the nvidia site, or did you use packages | 14:32 |
| Tulleh | binary from the nvidia site | 14:33 |
| Kartagis | jrib: I set the home default in useradd.conf | 14:33 |
| damno | you'll have to run the procedure twice | 14:33 |
| jrib | Kartagis: you'll still want to change the shell to something other than sh (probably) | 14:33 |
| damno | Tulleh, keep the .run file at ur home folder for ease | 14:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Tulleh: i recommend you use the packaged file, it will upgrade automatically for you | 14:34 |

I can adjust it via command line (but not the brightness applet, for some reason) and it sticks, but it's inconvenient. I can also get the brightness buttons to work by adding apci_opi=Linux to the boot options, but they stop working and the brightness resets every time I suspend/hibernate.

| GOMI | sipior : i see alot of module-alsa-card something with pulseaudio failed ? | 16:03 |
| Saevar | Sleaker: hm interesting, what app u have been using ? | 16:04 |

| izinucs | How do I query my laptop screen to see what resolutions it's capable of? (and I don't mean what rez xrandr has detected at the moment) | 16:04 |
| wolfric | Is there any remote desktop program that actually works without being extreamly buggy? I just tried to get xrdp installed, had the "d" key linked to "minimize everything and view desktop" i kid you not. now randomly i'll be viewing files in a folder and it just closes. Not to mention it's really REALLY laggy on my local network. The screen draws about 1 inch sqaured at a time and at times it can take about 5-10 seconds just to draw one comp | 16:04 |
| Saevar | Sleaker: u said system locked up .... what appclication u have been using befor lockup ? | 16:04 |
| izinucs | wolfric: teamviewer | 16:04 |

| Sleaker | and when I get back up in the morning to check it, it's locked | 16:05 |
| extraclassic | wolfric: tsclient worked for me | 16:05 |
| sipior | GOMI: hmm. doesn't seem like something that should kill gnome. does killing pulseaudio stop the problem? | 16:05 |
| Sleaker | I had issues with the screensaver locking it yesterday. disabled the screensaver and set it to blank screen and that seemed to work for the whole day. but then it just locked last night | 16:05 |
| guampa | wolfric: tsclient works w/o probs here too | 16:05 |
| GOMI | sipior dont know . | 16:06 |
| Sleaker | it doesn't lock if I'm using it. | 16:06 |
| Saevar | Sleaker: -> private | 16:06 |
| sipior | GOMI: might be something to try. don't forget to look at the output of dmesg and /var/log/messages immediately after your next (unintentional) logout. | 16:07 |
| GOMI | ok | 16:07 |
| noelito | On a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04, my audio keeps cutting out and my volume applet icon keeps changing to a "muted" or "no audio device" state.

| Scott-Mc | got a really simple question, how to copy from the terminal when it's scrolling. Such as when in an mtr prompt (I can pause the mtr but there's other apps which are scrolling/refreshing which don't support this ability such as varnishtop) | 16:11 |
| === meganerdca is now known as meganerd | ||
| ayecee | Scott-Mc: in many terminals, ctrl-S often suspends the screen, and ctrl-Q releases it, unless that's disabled. | 16:13 |
| Scott-Mc | aarcane, yeah that's disabled in varnishtop | 16:14 |
| sipior | Scott-Mc: i believe you can modify the terminal's behaviour regarding scrolling on output; check the preferences tab. | 16:14 |
| Scott-Mc | ayecee, I am thinking maybe just on select copy | 16:14 |
| arand | Scott-Mc: Using screen is another alternative | 16:14 |
| benzaldehyde | bittyx-laptop: http://www.felipecruz.com/linux-disk-utilies.php the badblocks and e2fsck utility looks interesting | 16:15 |
| Scott-Mc | sipior, I don't believe that has options for the specific operation I am trying | 16:15 |
| sipior | Scott-Mc: my understanding of your question is that you don't want the terminal to scroll on output, do I have that wrong? | 16:16 |
| === kmeisthax_ is now known as dwendt | ||
| LePousson | hi everybody | 16:16 |
| Scott-Mc | sipior, not exactly. Basically I need to be able to copy the output in the terminal when the output is changing, IE from something like top/varnishtop where you cannot pause. | 16:16 |
| LePousson | is there a way under 10.04.2 to avoid typing the "sudo" password for a user ? | 16:17 |
| sipior | Scott-Mc: ah, i see. | 16:17 |
| LePousson | i added a line to /etc/sudoers but it still asks for a pw | 16:18 |
| benzaldehyde | bittyx-laptop: the process involves unmounting the partitions to be scanned, scanning and then using e2fsck to mark the bad blocks that are not to be used | 16:18 |
| robbit10 | Hey. I was wondering, is there a PPA for installing GNOME 3 on Maverick Meerkat? (10.10) | 16:18 |

| victorious | I'm translating a program (specifically Mixxx) through launchpad, download the .mo file, put it in /usr/share/locale/xx/LC_MESSAGES, but can't get it to work. Any tips on how to test translations by yourself in this way? | 16:19 |
| sipior | Scott-Mc: top, at least, supports batch-mode operation "-b", which would allow you to pipe output more easily. | 16:19 |
| Scott-Mc | sipior, yeah i was hoping there would be an easy solution rather than having to introduce a pause feature | 16:20 |
| Scott-Mc | varnishtop is the only one I can think of that I use regularly which doesn't. I will just patch it (IE press p to pause) | 16:20 |
| benzaldehyde | !gnome3 | 16:20 |
| sipior | Scott-Mc: that's the disadvantage of curses-based programs, i'm afraid. | 16:21 |
| sylvar | If I want to apt-get install fop, should "deb http://ubuntu.osuosl.org/ubuntu/ hardy multiverse" in /etc/apt/sources.list be sufficient, or should I be looking elsewhere? | 16:21 |
| Scott-Mc | sipior, yeah, ah well. Was easier asking here than searching to come to the same conclusion | 16:21 |
| webroasters | hi guys. does gedit have a plugin somewhere that will add particular HTML tags to selected text?? | 16:22 |
| sipior | Scott-Mc: you can always redirect output normally, and then write a program to strip the control gibberish out. | 16:22 |
| webroasters | maybe a 3rd party plugin | 16:22 |

| benzaldehyde | webroasters: UL? | 16:24 |
| webroasters | benzaldehyde: i should probably ask this in the gnome irc | 16:25 |

| ubottu | LePousson: Avoid following your questions with a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !attitude | 16:26 |

| sipior | apocalyptiq: so "grep -R "text" <directory> | 16:30 |
| LePousson | meganerd : could it be the directory name under /media/ where it is automatically mounted ? | 16:30 |

| meganerd | LePousson: all the UUIDs are created as sym links in /dev/disk/by-uuid, have you checked there? | 16:31 |
| LePousson | no i did not check /dev/disk/by-uuid | 16:31 |
| LePousson | oh, finally blkid saw the UUID of /dev/sdl1 | 16:32 |
| LePousson | it is also the directory name under /media/ where the HDD is automatically mounted | 16:33 |
| === soreau_ is now known as soreau | ||
| meganerd | LePousson: if there is no label then it will use the UUID to generate a mount point | 16:33 |

| LePousson | meganerd : thanks for the info and thanks for helping | 16:34 |
| soreau | ! uuid | LePousson | 16:35 |
| ubottu | LePousson: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 16:35 |
| meganerd | soreau: he did that | 16:35 |

| cnbb | hello,how could i mount a USB flash disk on Ubuntu? | 16:36 |
| soreau | LePousson: What's the sudoers problem? | 16:36 |
| phrearch | hello | 16:36 |
| meganerd | LePousson: what is the problem there? | 16:36 |
| meganerd | LePousson: I missed that one | 16:36 |
| phrearch | anyone knows where the phonon header files on ubuntu are? | 16:36 |
| soreau | cnbb: It should be automounted when you plug it in | 16:36 |
| phrearch | on arch theyre in /usr/include/phonon | 16:36 |
| LePousson | soreau : i added a user to /etc/sudoers but the system is keeping asking for a pw when using sudo | 16:37 |
| cnbb | soreau: it didn't | 16:37 |
| soreau | phrearch: You need to install phonon -dev package | 16:37 |
| cnbb | i am using ubuntu 9.04 on VMware | 16:37 |
| meganerd | LePousson: did you use sudoedit? | 16:37 |
| soreau | cnbb: When you plug it in, check the output of dmesg to see what node it is in /dev/, then mount that to a directory | 16:37 |
| LePousson | hmmm no just added a line to sudoers | 16:37 |
| phrearch | soreau: i wonder where the ubuntu distro puts those files, because some app uses Phonon/ includes in their header files, instead of phonon/ | 16:37 |
| meganerd | LePousson: that is rather bad | 16:37 |
| soreau | cnbb: vmware.. make sure anything usb is working | 16:38 |
| LePousson | yes it looks like | 16:38 |
| soreau | phrearch: sec | 16:38 |
| meganerd | LePousson: sudoedit provides some protection from accidentially breaking sudoers | 16:38 |
| Pici | cnbb: 9.04 has been unsupported for some time now. | 16:38 |
| cnbb | thank you *soreau*, ill try | 16:38 |
| phrearch | soreau: ok thanks | 16:38 |
| meganerd | LePousson: anyway, IIRC, the password bypass is an option that is disabled by default at build time. in other words you have to recompile sudo | 16:39 |
| cnbb | soreau BTW: the same as the USB hard disk? | 16:39 |
| soreau | phrearch: Yep, it's /usr/include/phonon/ | 16:39 |
| LePousson | meganerd : i just want to avoid typing the password so often | 16:39 |
| soreau | phrearch: You have to install libphonon-dev to get the headers though | 16:40 |
| LePousson | as i'm the only user of the ubuntu box, it is a bit boring | 16:40 |
| phrearch | soreau: ok thanks | 16:40 |
| betancour | hey someone know how to Raid 1 a GTP based drive? | 16:40 |
| soreau | cnbb: Really, is there some reason you're using 9.04? | 16:40 |
| meganerd | LePousson: I have been using sudo for so long that I don't even think about it | 16:40 |
| phrearch | then its probably the same for all distro's | 16:40 |
| mynotes | is there any way to check the memory installed on my machine using ubuntu | 16:40 |
| soreau | cnbb: Is there any reason you're not using 10.10? | 16:40 |

| meganerd | mynotes: yes | 16:43 |

| Chubcorp | Superstar, I suggest the desktop, I'm using desktop on a netbook and works well. | 16:43 |
| cardplayer | soreau, i intalled the one from the software center and from adobe.com where is this one you speak of? | 16:43 |

| LePousson | sipior : after I modified the sudoers, i will have to logout and login again right ? | 16:48 |
| Superstar | I've found* | 16:48 |
| sipior | LePousson: shouldn't do, no. | 16:49 |

| Chubcorp | Superstar, But if it is on a laptop, then the USB might be inconvenient. | 16:56 |
| brightspark | af_: can you be more specific about what you want to upgrade? | 16:56 |
| [snake] | How can I get a nice delay effect in lmms? Which plugin will do this best-- and without crashing :P | 16:56 |
| meganerd | alsuna: as long as the installer detects the drive, I just did a normal install. To boot from it I use the BIOS boot override | 16:56 |
| benzaldehyde | cardplayer: that's not good, you could google flash archives, grab the top one, uncompress the tar and ad the .so file to the directory yourself if you were motivated to action | 16:56 |
| Janusman | hmm, I've found a .fuse_hidden0001154a00000014 file inside a .git, that comes up as soon as I delete it. should I be concerned? :| | 16:57 |
| meganerd | alsuna: the most complicated part is figuring out to choose your boot device from the BIOS or EFI. Not really a Linux issue | 16:57 |
| cardplayer | benzaldehyde, i can see the file folder you are refering to on my file system i just dont see it in the termial after the command u gave me | 16:57 |
| af_ | ayecee, brightspark, sorry I made a mistake, I'm using 10.04, and would like to install a version of a soft that is in the 10.10 repos | 16:57 |
| benzaldehyde | cardplayer: no libflashplayer.so? | 16:58 |
| meganerd | af_: http://packages.ubuntu.com | 16:58 |
| alsuna | meganerd: ok, thanks | 16:58 |
| af_ | brightspark, the specific softwares are linphone chromium and emesen | 16:58 |
| meganerd | af_: of course the dependancies may not be new enough | 16:58 |
| cardplayer | benzaldehyde, nothing in the termial.. and in the file system all i see is flashplugin alternative.so | 16:59 |
| meganerd | af_: it is usually a good idea to stick with whatever the version you are using has packaged | 16:59 |
| Dr_Willis | alsuna: just be sure at the end of th install. the installer is putting grub on the flash drive. not an internal HD. and set the pc to boot the flash. Im running from a 16gb flash right now | 16:59 |
| Dr_Willis | alsuna: it is slower then from a HD. | 16:59 |

| iceroot | orbarron: you can go directly to 10.04 because 8.04 and 10.04 are both lts-releases | 17:07 |
| cardplayer | benzaldehyde, youtube videos work..... crazy enough but going to almost anyother site it doesnt work | 17:07 |
| Dr_Willis | orbarron: thers always a chance for issues when upgradeing. it may be worth wile to make backups. | 17:07 |

| Dr_Willis | orbarron: weird you cant install any of them. | 17:08 |
| iceroot | orbarron: yes synaptic is giving you a setting "only upgrade to lts-releases" | 17:09 |

| Dr_Willis | scottj: you mean a terminal under 'X' ? like xterm/gnome-terminal? or the Console? (ie: not in X) | 17:10 |

| royb33 | how can i callback a apllication that was ok before my ssh crashed? | 17:19 |
| NerwenGreen | in particular, the description says wubi puts ubuntu on a virtual disk? does that mean ubuntu is running virtually on top of windows? or is it an actual real install of the OS? | 17:19 |
| Dr_Willis | cardplayer: you can get googles chrome (somehow) to use its owbn built in flash. But I rarely have flash issues. Crackle.com works for me. :) | 17:19 |

| Ackooo | what do you need | 17:19 |

| NerwenGreen | what I'm hoping for is a dual boot setup with windows and ubuntu .. does the wubi installer do that? | 17:19 |
| royb33 | ok | 17:19 |
| royb33 | i lost a ssh connection | 17:19 |
| Dr_Willis | royb33: you may want to look into using 'screen' in the future. You may not beable to 'reattatch' an app to a nes session without screen | 17:19 |
| royb33 | but no i have fixed it | 17:19 |

| Jordan_U | NerwenGreen: It does, but I would recommend doing a normal dual boot instead by booting from the Ubuntu CD/USB. | 17:20 |
| defsum | meganerd, card also present in default Gnome output list as "Mackie XD-2 Analog stereo", checked as default, but no sound. | 17:20 |

| MK` | If I am going to make /tmp a separate partition, what size do you guys suggest? | 17:21 |
| benzaldehyde | orbarron: does the alternate or live cd boot? | 17:21 |
| Pici | royb33: A good starting guide is here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Screen | 17:21 |
| defsum | meganerd, this sound card was working in previous installations of Ubuntu, thus somehow it's POSSIBLE to get it working | 17:21 |
| ayecee | MK`: maybe make it a tmpfs? then you don't have to decide. | 17:21 |
| rug | royb33: user tmux instead of screen, it is much more powerfull. | 17:21 |
| NerwenGreen | Jordan_U tjiggi_fo iceroot - drat. Thanks. :) | 17:21 |
| cardplayer | benzaldehyde, how do i delete my old flahs plugin from that folder? | 17:22 |
| MK` | I do not know what that is :( | 17:22 |
| orbarron | benzaldehyde: I was going to give you advise a try -- live CD does not work as well... -- funny thing is 32bit install works like a champ... on CD/DVD/USB | 17:22 |
| tjiggi_fo | NerwenGreen, if you use the live-CD (either to install from CD or to install from Live Session) it'll give you the option to install alongside of windows (or whatever other distro you have installed already). | 17:22 |
| benzaldehyde | Superstar: as far as i know the live cd is a neccessity when doing the usb route though i'm only going on heresay do not quote me | 17:22 |
| ayecee | MK`: it's a filesystem that lives in memory. Kind of like a ramdisk, except that it's not a fixed size. | 17:23 |
| soreau | I hate flash. It never does anything as expected and it's proprietary so we can't fix it | 17:23 |
| benzaldehyde | cardplayer: sudo rm thename.so | 17:23 |
| ayecee | MK`: pages from it can also go to swap, if necessary. | 17:23 |
| MK` | Ah. I just wanted to start separating it all. I only have / and swap | 17:23 |
| soreau | and everyone expects it to work because some name brand sites use it | 17:23 |
| MK` | first i will separate /home, but after that I want to separate /tmp, /usr, and /var | 17:23 |
| NerwenGreen | tjiggi_fo: oh, okay good. | 17:24 |
| Superstar | benzaldehyde: is wubi not good for long term use? | 17:24 |
| tjiggi_fo | NerwenGreen, Grub2 will be installed (a boot loader) which will allow you to choose which OS you'd like to boot to | 17:24 |

| user__ | thx for this room, bye all | 17:42 |
| arand | SgrA: "dpkg -L chrome-browser" will tell you I think | 17:42 |
| Dr_Willis | GeekMan: try it and see. but i think it uses syslinux, and ppc dosent use syslinux. (i only tried ppc linux ages ago) | 17:42 |
| pixmin | Hi, I'm on Lucid (lts) and I've 'broken' my apt. I tried to install ttf-rufscript and apt failed saying the files list file was missing and now I can't install anything. I can't remove or reinstall ttf-urfscript, any ideas how to fix apt? | 17:42 |
| arand | SgrA: Though I'm not quite sure what the name of the package is... | 17:42 |
| GeekMan | it says the dependency wont work | 17:42 |
| Dr_Willis | pixmin: did you mess with any files in /var/cache/apt/ ? | 17:42 |

| Dr_Willis | GeekMan: given the poor state of support for PPC linux these days. i would not be suprised that it dosent work. | 17:43 |
| pixmin | Dr_Willis, no, I only removed /var/lib/dpkg/lock to free apt and try to uninstall the package (had to run dpkg -configure -a ) | 17:43 |
| xekap | edwinkcw http://www.imagup.com/data/1116946311.html | 17:43 |
| GeekMan | hmm | 17:44 |
| Dr_Willis | !fixapt | 17:44 |
| ubottu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 17:44 |
| edwinkcw | xekap: yes, your problem is? | 17:44 |
| GeekMan | wht about other programs | 17:44 |
| Combatjuan | tehryan: I think lsmod will do that. | 17:44 |
| pixmin | Dr_Willis, did that, it's going back to the same situation as once 'fixed' apt tries to re-install the package... | 17:44 |
| mhampton | #join sage-devel | 17:46 |
| pixmin | Dr_Willis, my bad, apt tries to 'upgrade' the package once it's fixed using this command, not re-install it, which fails and goes back to the originally broken situation | 17:46 |
| xekap | i have the compiz but without animations add-ons | 17:46 |
| Dr_Willis | pixmin: perhaps totally remove the package, then try reinstalling it. | 17:46 |
| rcmaehl | Help! Transmission seems to screw up my network? Why is this? | 17:46 |
| Dr_Willis | xekap: some compiz plugins are not installed by default. theres extra plugins in the repos. | 17:47 |
| GeekMan | how about the one for kde | 17:47 |
| Dr_Willis | rcmaehl: for starters - give more details. | 17:47 |
| pixmin | Dr_Willis, if by 'totally remove' you mean apt-get remove --purge then I've tried that too, do you mean something different? | 17:47 |
| Dr_Willis | GeekMan: i imagine they all will have the same issues with ppc. | 17:47 |
| Dr_Willis | pixmin: so it is able to remove the package? | 17:47 |
| === XuMuK|ZNC is now known as XuMuK | ||
| tehryan | basically what I want to be able to do is insmod to the new driver, if it fails insmod back to the old driver. problem is I don't know where the driver file is. Doesn't look like lsmod shows that :/ | 17:47 |
| GeekMan | yea it didnt work | 17:48 |
| Dr_Willis | GeekMan: the Pendrivelinux site May have some PPC utils. | 17:48 |
| pixmin | Dr_Willis, no: dpkg: error processing ttf-rufscript (--remove): Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting a removal. | 17:48 |
| xekap | and how i will install all plugins by default | 17:48 |
| oCean | tehryan: modinfo modulename shows filelocation | 17:48 |
| Dr_Willis | xekap: search for them in the package manager tool, and install ones you want. | 17:48 |
| piomek | Siema | 17:49 |
| tehryan | ocean: i don't know the module name, is there a way I can find that using the device name? | 17:49 |
| groundup | Is there an easy way to get a list of what applications have been installed? I have to write a document about what's installed on a server. | 17:49 |
| Dr_Willis | !clone | groundup | 17:49 |
| ubottu | groundup: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 17:49 |

| _Twystd350_ | Hey guys, anyone have any clue why video chat would not be working in firefox under 10.10 maverick? Cheese will show my cam up fine but things like Omegle, Tinychat, Chatroulette just don't work | 17:52 |
| xekap | <edwinkcw> thank you so much | 17:52 |
| rcmaehl | Dr_Willis: Well my torrents are slow so I maxed out the peers to 300 per torrent and 3000 overall, but when I torrent and a while after I stop my network gets like under 1KB/s | 17:52 |
| edwinkcw | xekap: solved? | 17:52 |
| rcmaehl | _Twystd350_: ... rly? | 17:52 |
| oCean | tehryan: sorry, i have no clue what the name of your current driver can be. | 17:52 |
| kbrosnan | _Twystd350_: they all depend on flash | 17:52 |
| xekap | yes work good | 17:52 |
| Dr_Willis | _Twystd350_: if you mean in 'flash' in firefox. thers known issues with flash accessing webcams. (ive never tried it) | 17:52 |
| edwinkcw | xekap: btw, what theme are you using? it looks good | 17:53 |
| rcmaehl | But why would more peers slow down my network? | 17:53 |
| rumpel1 | _Twystd350_, maybe because of flash? | 17:53 |
| Dr_Willis | rcmaehl: try a differnt client perhaps. | 17:54 |
| _Twystd350_ | Well I'm not entirely sure it's flash at the moment. On omegle it'll access my cam but then not connect to their servers. Thinking it was just the site I tried numerous others and they wont even see the cam. But tinychat shows me other peoples streams | 17:54 |
| _Twystd350_ | I've got the latest flash (I think) so I'm kinda looking for any other ideas. | 17:54 |
| _Twystd350_ | I'm sure it used to work on 10.04 | 17:54 |
| xekap | no its a origine theme | 17:54 |
| Dr_Willis | _Twystd350_: thers a program called 'webcamstudio' that can help some of those flash-based things (and other apps) make use of your webcvam. Its like a virtual webcam. that sort of works as a front end/tweaking tool. | 17:55 |
| oCean | tehryan: does 'lsmod | grep cfg80211' output anything? | 17:55 |
| _Twystd350_ | first time I have tried it since I upgraded | 17:55 |
| edwinkcw | xekap: original???? which distribution are you using? Ubuntu? | 17:55 |
| tehryan | i figured it out. I just did lsmod and started modinfoing things that looked relevant | 17:55 |
| xekap | yes ubuntu 10.10 | 17:55 |
| _Twystd350_ | I'll maybe give that a try then. I'll let ya know in a sec | 17:55 |
| tehryan | thanks for the help :) | 17:55 |
| edwinkcw | oh, I didn't install 10.10 | 17:55 |
| Dr_Willis | webcamstudio could even use a video file as a | 17:55 |
| oCean | tehryan: ah, ok | 17:56 |
| Dr_Willis | webcam :) | 17:56 |
| xekap | why | 17:56 |
| tjiggi_fo | edwinkcw, his theme is default xubuntu | 17:56 |
| edwinkcw | tjiggi_fo: oh.......I didn't use Xubuntu | 17:56 |
| _Twystd350_ | webcamstudio is a no show in software centre... Guess I'll have to google it. | 17:56 |
| GeekMan | i have it in an iso like most things but what all has to be done to make it usb compatible | 17:57 |
| Dr_Willis | _Twystd350_: yep. Its a java app. ive not tried it in some time. | 17:57 |
| GeekMan | how about the one for kde | 17:57 |
| pixmin | Dr_Willis, and if I try to reinstall "apt-get install --reinstall ttf-rufscript" then it goes back to the same, it stops, saying "dpkg: warning: files list file for package `ttf-rufscript' missing, assuming package has no files currently installed." | 17:57 |
| Dr_Willis | GeekMan: put files on usb, put bootloader on usb. configure bootloader to boot the kernel with the proper optons. | 17:57 |
| GeekMan | i have it in an iso like most things but what all has to be done to make it usb compatible | 17:57 |

| xekap | how to activate the burn effect | 17:58 |
| Dr_Willis | xekap: ccsm will tell you the proper hot-key combo. | 17:58 |
| edwinkcw | xekap: you need to set it in animation | 17:58 |
| GeekMan | ill figure it out | 17:58 |
| GeekMan | you got any links on sites while i search | 17:58 |
| Dr_Willis | GeekMan: ive never seen a PPC box tht could boot from USB. :) but ive only had a few old old old macs. | 17:58 |
| edwinkcw | xekap: I just tried it, you need to enable burn effect when closing windows, opening windows, etc. | 17:59 |
| GeekMan | you might be right | 17:59 |
| xekap | ok i will try to see how to avtivte on youtube | 17:59 |

| keito | any ideas? | 18:02 |

| venport | Is this a good place to ask a question about groups? | 18:02 |
| noelito | This is the 5th time I have patiently tried to use this method to solve an issue in Ubuntu without success. What am I doing wrong? | 18:02 |
| keito | ikonia, restricted | 18:02 |
| erUSUL | venport: yes | 18:02 |
| Raikia | venport: yeah | 18:02 |
| rypervenche | I am manually installing Ubuntu on a parition. What mount location do I choose to have it install everything to it? | 18:02 |
| keito | ikonia, -extras* ;) | 18:03 |
| ikonia | keito: really shouldn't be a problem unless you are installing kernel packages from external places/repos that crequired the kernel driver to be re-installed | 18:03 |
| goliath_ | for win there re many programs with linux I can't? :S | 18:03 |
| venport | is the video group in ubuntu reservered for anything? | 18:03 |
| iceroot | rypervenche: / why not using the defaults from the intaller? | 18:03 |
| ikonia | goliath_: no | 18:03 |
| venport | Is there a reason I should not add users to that group? | 18:03 |
| Raikia | rypervenche: select the partition you want, and select "/" as the mount point | 18:03 |
| goliath_ | I need to see fcebook password | 18:03 |
| goliath_ | I forgot it | 18:03 |
| ikonia | goliath_: sorry, not going to happen | 18:03 |
| rypervenche | iceroot: I have to do it this way because I'm using a logical partition | 18:03 |
| ikonia | goliath_: use the password reset process | 18:03 |
| keito | ikonia, no, I think may be to do with a flood or something. when it is reading from mirrors and downloading pacakges it stops after about 20secs as if the network can't handle it | 18:03 |
| iceroot | goliath_: wrong place | 18:04 |
| goliath_ | yeah.. | 18:04 |
| ikonia | keito: doubt it | 18:04 |
| erUSUL | venport: no; in fact if you want your users to be able to use tv tunners webcams and the like they should be in the video group | 18:04 |
| Raikia | venport: typically, if you don't know what a group is for, there is no reason to add a user to is | 18:04 |
| Raikia | it* | 18:04 |
| keito | ikonia, yeah, what could it possibly be then? | 18:04 |
| goliath_ | I have also forgoten password for tagged myspace emails | 18:04 |
| Raikia | Or what erUSUL said | 18:04 |
| iceroot | goliath_: wrong place!! | 18:04 |
| ikonia | keito: possibly what I've just said | 18:04 |
| ikonia | goliath_: not going to happen, | 18:04 |
| goliath_ | they re saved in cache | 18:04 |
| venport | I was going to use it for permissions to access my media library | 18:04 |
| keito | ikonia, firefox stops working and every other internet app too | 18:04 |
| ikonia | keito: it will do if you lose your network, thats common sense | 18:05 |
| goliath_ | so there is no way? | 18:05 |
| goliath_ | :S | 18:05 |
| erUSUL | venport: don't. the system already has an use for it | 18:05 |
| erUSUL | venport: adding a group is trivial | 18:05 |
| keito | ikonia, no, it was downloading packages, not installing them.. if I re-enable the network then it continues from where it left off, gets a few more pacakges downloaded then stops again | 18:05 |
| ikonia | keito: yes, I understand that | 18:05 |

| Osmodivs | How can I make it work? | 18:12 |
| Raikia | rypervenche: If you want to set up a swap space, though, you have to create the partitions yourself and then designate them as "swap space" | 18:12 |
| sipior | Raikia: you definitely need swap space. | 18:12 |
| sipior | Raikia: else you will not be able to make full use of your physical ram. | 18:13 |
| _Twystd350_ | Well I tried but no joy with WebcamStudio. any other ideas on this? | 18:13 |
| mk4 | Osmodivs: check that you mic is working properly in another program (or vocaroo.com) if not you need to install another driver for it. | 18:13 |
| mk4 | DO I need to uninstall compiz config? I installed it a month or so ago on my 1.6ghz 1GBram netbook running ubuntu 10.10, but its too resource heavy for this machine. how do i uninstall it? | 18:13 |
| Raikia | sipior: It rarely does anything on a machine with 3 GB or over. Have you done an activity test on the partitions and RAM with and without the swap space? There is a significant lack of activity once the RAM gets to about 3 GB (minus intensive programs) | 18:13 |
| sipior | Raikia: that's simply not true. | 18:14 |
| Raikia | sipior: In my own testing, it definitely is | 18:14 |

| mk4 | Osmodivs: have you configured skype to use your mic? | 18:14 |
| sipior | Raikia: consider what happens when a large number of programs reserve memory without allocating it. your ram is full of empty sections which cannot be used, and cannot be swapped either. | 18:14 |

| victorious | tranan: I have problems with sound when coming from hibernation. The fix for me is 1) to select the sound card (from the loudspeaker icon) and disable it (Profile: off), 2) in a terminal write "sudo alsa force-reload" 3) enable your sound card again by selecting a profile | 19:09 |
| DaPenguin | you could also sudo service pulseaudio restart | 19:09 |

| luis_ | hi there, how do you "prompt" ubuntu to check and reinstall any needed drivers for new hardware? | 19:22 |
| eamon | Does anyone know how to use distcc? here's my error http://dpaste.de/jndo/ | 19:22 |
| meganerd | luis_: drivers are handled differently then with windows | 19:23 |
| Dr_Willis | luis_: rerun the 'addational hardware drivers' tool. (jockey-gtk if using the terminal) | 19:23 |
| meganerd | luis_: it should happen automatically with kernel updates | 19:23 |
| Dr_Willis | eamon: i recall setting it up years ago following the GENTOO wiki pages. :) | 19:23 |
| Dr_Willis | eamon: but i havent used it on ubuntu ever. | 19:23 |
| FlameTai1_ | Can someone please just tell me what the hell is the difference between Mint and Ubuntu is? lmao | 19:24 |
| eamon | Dr_Willis: yeah, I'm folowing the wiki but I'm getting this error | 19:24 |
| luis_ | well i had a wireless card on my laptop which kept dropping out/poor reception & as i had a few laptops laying about i thought i'd try a different one however its doesn't seem to be automaticly detected, any ideas? | 19:24 |

| shakir | how to send messages in private network woth terminal , Im using a wirelles router | 19:25 |
| Dr_Willis | eamon: i recall distcc bneeding to be the same version on all machines doing the work. | 19:25 |
| Dr_Willis | eamon: and gcc and other apps also needing to be the same version | 19:25 |

| mc_teo` | hello, i am partioning my hdd with windows on entire disk | 19:26 |
| mc_teo` | to eventually install ubuntu | 19:26 |
| Dr_Willis | mc_teo`: leave part of the HD unallocated - that way the ubuntu installer can partion it. | 19:26 |
| === datagutt_ is now known as datagutt | ||
| mc_teo` | someone told me i need to reboot a few times after running chksdk | 19:26 |
| mc_teo` | how many times is a few? | 19:26 |
| luis_ | Dr_Willis: i tried using jockey-gtk but no luck... doesnt detect the wireless card | 19:26 |
| tranan | in sound preferences under hardware it only lists the hdmi output, but not internal anymore.... and even hdmi isn't working | 19:27 |
| shcherbak | FlameTai1_: I do guess, beside apparent diffrence, it would be kernel, packages versions, shipment, some configs and freenode channel. | 19:27 |
| eamon | Dr_Willis: oh so distcc itself needs to be the same version? That would explain a think or two, I'd say the fink version is out of date | 19:27 |
| [snake] | How can I use ffmpeg to convert a ton of files all at once, that are in subdirectories of directories. (convert: /path/allfiles) | 19:27 |
| Dr_Willis | luis_: depends on the card. it may not use drivers jocky knows about.. or the system may not be seeing the card at all. | 19:27 |
| mc_teo` | [snake]: why cant you use wildcards | 19:27 |
| Dr_Willis | [snake]: some shell scripting/ and use of find. is one way. | 19:28 |
| luis_ | Dr_Willis: the wireless card is an intel 2200bg | 19:28 |
| Dr_Willis | luis_: for most intel cards I thought the drivers were included in ubuntu/linux | 19:28 |
| mc_teo` | like using /path/* | 19:28 |
| luis_ | Dr_Willis: i beleive the system does "see" the card as it is listed when i use lspci | 19:28 |
| [snake] | mc_teo`, will that get everything... it's like a huge tree of directories.. with more directories in them. | 19:28 |
| treebeen | [snake]: use find with -exec | 19:28 |
| === eddie is now known as Guest10783 | ||
| Dr_Willis | [snake]: find is worth learning about. :) | 19:29 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: yeah find is powerfull friend | 19:29 |
| FlameTai1_ | shcherbak: Would the LMDE have more features or? I'm not fully following the concept of how the Linux OS's should have a distro if it's only a few mods. | 19:29 |
| Dr_Willis | [snake]: or write up a script/batch file that does the work in parts. so you can monitor whats going on. | 19:29 |
| luis_ | Dr_Willis: i have no doubt the card would work if i reinstalled ubuntu I'd rather not have to reinstall and reset up my prefs for the whole OS just because I changed a wireless card, any way around it? | 19:29 |
| meganerd | luis_: what happens when you run iwconfig? | 19:30 |
| Dr_Willis | FlameTai1_: LMDE? | 19:30 |
| Dr_Willis | luis_: try it on a live cd as a test. see if it works.. if so. check what modules are loaded. | 19:30 |
| Dr_Willis | luis_: and then try loading them on the desktop install. | 19:30 |
| treebeen | luis_: you know, maybe on windows reinstalling is state of the art to solve problems, but it shouldn't be on linux | 19:30 |
| mintypu | Hi How do I go about setting up my own elite proxy server on ubuntu | 19:31 |
| Dr_Willis | luis_: i would also check the forums for that exact card. there may be some bugs in the drivers. or other known issues. | 19:31 |
| luis_ | Dr_Willis: using iwconfig lists 3 times lo says no wireless extensions eth0 no wireless extensions and eth1 has a load of wireless related settings | 19:31 |
| Dr_Willis | luis_: eth1 can be a wireless card. it is on several of my laptops. :) | 19:32 |
| FlameTai1_ | Dr_Willis, Linux Mint Debian Edition. | 19:32 |
| Dr_Willis | FlameTai1_: I would say take questions about that to #linux, or #ubuntu-offtopic | 19:32 |
| shcherbak | FlameTai1_: distrowatch site can help you gasp concept of shratterd distros, but if you jump from debian to slaxware (or even centos) you will see all "few mods" in practice. | 19:32 |
| tranan | Is there a way to reinstall audio without reinstalling ubuntu to fix the issue? | 19:32 |
| shcherbak | ok arch | 19:32 |
| shcherbak | or* | 19:32 |
| luis_ | Dr_Willis: i''ve checked the forums and most of what i find related to that card are some issues back in ubuntu 7/8 | 19:32 |
| [snake] | I used the find command and got a list of all the files I need. thanks :) | 19:32 |
| luis_ | Dr_Willis: does that mean its "seen" by ubuntu | 19:33 |
| Dr_Willis | luis_: I would start with a live-cd test and see if it works. save a listing of lsmod output if it does. | 19:33 |
| Dr_Willis | luis_: from what you are sayign. i would say its 'seen' but not configured. | 19:33 |
| perlmonkey | tranan you can reinstall the package with sudo dpkg-reconfigure package | 19:33 |
| Vr_Ray | Announcer: More Backtrax USA Continues Next. | 19:33 |
| tranan | perlmonkey, ok, what package would that be? | 19:34 |
| FlameTai1_ | Dr_Willis: Sorry I understand lol, just kinda buggin out because I don't really see the "few mods" thing and how it should just all of a sudden become a new distro. And since I'm debating on Ubuntu/Linux Mint to use, figured you guys would know the features way better. | 19:34 |
| FlameTai1_ | shcherbak, thanks for the suggestion I'll look it up | 19:34 |
| Dr_Willis | FlameTai1_: i dont see the point in using MINT to be honest with you. | 19:34 |
| luis_ | Dr_Willis: is it a big task running me through configuring whatever needs configuring? its strange that its seen by the os but doesnt appear listed in the network manager (GUI) | 19:34 |
| shcherbak | Dr_Willis: me too | 19:34 |
| Dr_Willis | luis_: all i ever do for my wireless is click on the icon at the top right.. and enter the password for my network. :) | 19:34 |
| david5345 | I installed Xubuntu 10.04 on a laptop with 256 memory. I am seeing "Out of memory: kill process..... Killed process .... ". What am I doing wrong ? | 19:34 |

| [snake] | Ok, I have the list of files in a text doc, how can I pipe the text into ffmpeg? | 19:35 |
| perlmonkey | tranan: either alsa or pulse, not sure what package to use pulse | 19:35 |
| Dr_Willis | david5345: you did make a swap partition? | 19:35 |

| brack9 | Hey | 19:35 |
| brack9 | Is port tunnelling allowed by default in openssh? | 19:35 |

| brack9 | or does it need to be enabled? | 19:35 |
| david5345 | Dr_Willis, no. I am activating one now | 19:36 |

| luis_ | Dr_Willis: yep that's what i used to be able to do & would like to again, as in my daily travels i connect to several networks & terminal just isn't practical enough | 19:36 |
| Dr_Willis | david5345: thats very likely the issue. | 19:36 |
| perlmonkey | Google is linux friendly | 19:36 |
| Dr_Willis | luis_: sounds liek it may be more of a bug in the network-manager tool. | 19:36 |
| perlmonkey | dragonkeeper hi | 19:36 |
| Atol | Hi, i have an old cd of ubuntu 7.10. Can i install it and get fast the newest version ? | 19:36 |
| GOMI | what does this mean : warning: detected that screensaver has left the bus . | 19:36 |
| dragonkeeper | perlmonkey hi ? | 19:36 |
| [snake] | Dr_Willis, and how would I tell it to keep the name? | 19:37 |
| luis_ | Dr_Willis: any simple way of reinstalling that to see if it picks up the card? | 19:37 |
| Dr_Willis | Atol: you would basically be redownloading the whole cd.. so it would be better to get the cd and do a clean install of the latest | 19:37 |
| perlmonkey | Atol why not just download the latest iso, you would probably need to download more updates else | 19:37 |
| Dr_Willis | luis_: never tried. shouldent need to., You could try configuring it by hand. | 19:37 |
| perlmonkey | more updates than the size of the iso i mean | 19:37 |
| Atol | Fact is, i have no writable cd and i cannot install ubuntu from usb too many bugs | 19:37 |
| Dr_Willis | [snake]: give it the name as an output file. Check the ffmpeg docs. | 19:37 |

| Atol | Which is a shame, i can install archlinux but not ubuntu :d | 19:38 |
| [snake] | Dr_Willis, edit each line lol? there's 1,459 lines. | 19:38 |
| Dr_Willis | [snake]: you edit EVERY LINE and make a batch file/script out of it... | 19:38 |
| phonex01 | guys i have this c code : strcat(REQ,strlen(data)); | 19:38 |
| luis_ | Dr_Willis: you mean configuring the connection as such? so telling the card directly which network to connect to & what's the password & so on? | 19:38 |
| Dr_Willis | [snake]: smart text editing is a good skill to have. | 19:38 |
| perlmonkey | Atol ah, fair enough. | 19:38 |
| ayecee | phonex01: no kidding? | 19:38 |
| Dr_Willis | luis_: yes. that can be done from the command line. | 19:38 |
| phonex01 | but i have error in which strlen return integer and i want to convert it to string | 19:38 |
| [snake] | Dr_Willis, yeah and piping output is a much easier, and effective way of doing it. | 19:38 |
| [snake] | :) | 19:39 |
| phonex01 | ayecee im not kidding | 19:39 |
| Dr_Willis | [snake]: go do it then.. | 19:39 |
| luis_ | Dr_Willis: yeah that's what i was trying to avoid like i said in my daily life i use a few wireless networks & command line just isnt very practical | 19:39 |
| [snake] | mmkay | 19:39 |
| perlmonkey | dragonkeeper i noticed you were on VM same as me, hows your bandwidth? mine sucks | 19:39 |

| Atol | Can i install ubuntu directly from my archlinux ? | 19:39 |
| dragonkeeper | perlmonkey im not on a VM | 19:39 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: that text file, output of what command? | 19:40 |

| Atol | Can u send me a writable cd ? with a sanwich | 19:40 |
| Atol | :d | 19:40 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, less ./filename | command :) | 19:40 |
| dragonkeeper | perlmonkey oh virgin media ... not bad 50mb is ok just between 5clock and 10pm it gets capped | 19:40 |

| GOMI | can i delete gnome-screensaver is that possible ??? | 19:41 |
| Dr_Willis | Atol: i always use bootable flash drives. | 19:41 |
| [snake] | bad?? | 19:41 |
| david5345 | Alright, I'll try IceWM, Xubuntu is too much of a memory hog | 19:41 |
| Dr_Willis | luis_: ive never needed to. any time ive plugged in a nic. or any other new cards. they were seen and setup as part of the boot process. | 19:41 |
| Atol | Dr_Willis: Is there a space limit. My usb is only 2Gb and i have like low memory bug ( wtf ) during the install so i cannot do anything. | 19:41 |

What is the command to create a current error report I can submit to launchpad? | 19:48 |
| Atol | Geet: On internet, u're not judged by what school you've done, but what you've done. Most of the engineer school are shitty comapre to self learning. | 19:48 |
| FoolsRun | heh. Regular expressions, and my complete inability to understand them, are the reason I'll never be a "programmer" ;) | 19:48 |
| airtonix | Geet: surely you know this as a third year university computer science student | 19:49 |
| Geet | Atol...u r right | 19:49 |
| mynameistux | why does ubotto noe know about it? | 19:49 |
| Dr_Willis | J1MB0: #ubuntu+1 channel for 11.04 | 19:49 |
| FoolsRun | Atol is back? | 19:49 |
| J1MB0 | Thanks Dr_Willis | 19:49 |
| mynameistux | *ubottu | 19:49 |
| benzaldehyde | mynameistux: the installer uses partman-command i believe | 19:49 |
| crackerjackz | FoolsRun, you can do anything you put your mind to | 19:49 |
| IdleOne | Atol: in #ubuntu you are not judged by what you have done but by how you act. | 19:49 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Atol, you can not demand respect because of what you have done, it has to be given. | 19:49 |
| Geet | though I m a third yar student ....but I beleive i havnt done anythin yet | 19:49 |
| Dr_Willis | FoolsRun: i got that book by orealy on regular expressions.. amazingly neat idea and not too hard to get the core of it.. its the details however that can get ya. | 19:49 |
| benzaldehyde | mynameistux: possibly partmon-command, i don't remember | 19:49 |
| fizyplankton | mynameistux: what do you mean? are you sure ur using the right syntax? !<cmd> | <user> | 19:49 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: Thats why I asked what command produced your namefile, and for sniplet | 19:49 |
| Atol | IdleOne: so why are you still here ? I used a rude word, u acted like the rudest one. | 19:50 |
| mynameistux | no, I mean the bot on this IRC channle | 19:50 |
| FoolsRun | crackerjackz: good point. I just don't have the need to use them often enough to learn them for real. | 19:50 |
| mynameistux | you can often type generel words about ubuntu with an ! and it will tell you about them | 19:50 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, the name of the file is twelve.txt | 19:50 |
| fizyplankton | mynameistux: lemme see if it works. | 19:50 |
| fizyplankton | !ot | mynameistux | 19:50 |
| ubottu | mynameistux: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 19:50 |
| fizyplankton | yep ubottu still works | 19:50 |
| * shcherbak got brave and smacked Atol. | 19:50 | |
| FoolsRun | Atol: you got kicked once; you really want to keep it up? | 19:50 |
| IdleOne | Atol: I am here because I unfortunately have to argue with you so that you follow the guidelines the Ubuntu community has agreed to follow. | 19:50 |
| comptekki | I just put a 96gb ssd sata hdd in to a machine ubuntu 10.10 x64 doesn't like it - regular sata works fine - just no driver yet? | 19:51 |
| crackerjackz | Atol, people here are volunteering their time to help the community... they aren't getting paid to do it. you shouldn't be rude at all | 19:51 |
| Dr_Willis | FoolsRun: when i first discovered regular expressions - i larned how to turn about 200 lines of 'code' into 3 lines of code. :) and a reg exp . to parse a data file i was working on.. heh. | 19:51 |
| mynameistux | yeah, but !fdisk | fizyplankton | 19:51 |
| s3r3n1t7 | shcherbak, please try to refrain from such comments. | 19:51 |
| fizyplankton | !fdisk | fizyplankton | 19:51 |
| mynameistux | well, when I run it I get ubottu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fdisk | 19:51 |
| fizyplankton | ubottu sent me a pm saying that isnt a valid cmd | 19:51 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 19:51 |
| mynameistux | which is a bit pathetic, considering how important it is | 19:51 |
| mynameistux | yeah | 19:51 |
| Dr_Willis | mynameistux: it dosen have a factoid on every command. | 19:51 |
| shcherbak | s3r3n1t7: sure, they are not that often to be reprimended, tho. | 19:51 |
| mynameistux | I would have thought fdisk was a pretty major one to have | 19:51 |
| Dr_Willis | mynameistux: try man fdisk. :) these days one should use cfdisk or parted i belive. | 19:52 |
| Atol | Words exists only to transmit idea, not to give a pretext to coward under their pc to kick you. You can ban me, im not so much interessted by this channel but i stay proud in every circonstance. | 19:52 |
| mynameistux | cfdisk it is then | 19:52 |
| fizyplankton | man fdisk works | 19:52 |
| mynameistux | I'll go through the man pages, thanks guys | 19:52 |
| FoolsRun | My question again: does anyone have good personal experience with an Ubuntu service for backing up Windows clients? Bacula, BackupPC, etc? | 19:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Atol: let it drop man.. | 19:52 |
| lolmatic | Lo | 19:52 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: What command did you use to make twelve.txt | 19:52 |
| KGB | Whenever I try to log on to my computer, a message appears saying "Install problem! the configuration defaults for GNOME power manager have not been installed correctly. Please contact your system administrator" | 19:52 |
| KGB | after returning me to the login screen | 19:52 |
| FoolsRun | atol: if you don't care about the channel just leave. | 19:52 |
| crackerjackz | Atol, no one said you had to kiss anyones arse | 19:52 |
| IdleOne | ok let's drop it and get back to support | 19:52 |
| lolmatic | Dr_Willis: do you have any tips for enabling sound in old games? | 19:53 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Atol, Nobody is forcing you to stay. if you have no interest in this channel you are free to leave. However, if you do choose to stay you will have to abide by the rules set for this channel. | 19:53 |
| benzaldehyde | mynameistux: http://www.felipecruz.com/linux-disk-utilies.php this is worth a look | 19:53 |
| Dr_Willis | KGB: interesting. Try making a new user. (sudo adduser bgates) and see if the newly made user has the sme issue. | 19:53 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, find /home/snake/lmms/samples/FL\ Studio/Packs/ > twelve.txt | 19:53 |
| Dr_Willis | lolmatic: hit up google for the game name, and getting working under ubuntu. theres a ubuntu-games wiki/web site or 2 out there I recall. | 19:53 |
| KGB | Dr_Willis, how am I supposed to open a terminal? | 19:53 |
| Dr_Willis | lolmatic: other then tht. i dont spend much time with old games. | 19:53 |
| crackerjackz | Atol, see http://goo.gl/cEF1w | 19:53 |
| FoolsRun | lolmatic, is it a Windows or DOS game, or a Linux game? (hah. Linux game.) | 19:54 |
| crackerjackz | !topic | 19:54 |
| Dr_Willis | KGB: alt-ctrl-f1 through f6 | 19:54 |
| ubottu | Please read the channel topic whenever you enter, as it contains important information. To view it at any time after joining, simply type /topic | 19:54 |
| mynameistux | thanks, that link looks like just what I need | 19:54 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: you could use ls, with same effect | 19:54 |
| Atol | "Don't be annoying." | 19:54 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: did you check that file, is it ok? | 19:54 |
| Dr_Willis | lolmatic: for a lot of old games. theres a few env. vriables/settings that can often be set to tweak them into working. | 19:54 |
| mynameistux | ok, here's a question for you. has anyone seen my microfiber cloth? I can't see anything through these glasses | 19:54 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, no.. ls only lists the current dierectory... I needed the whole tree. | 19:55 |
| benzaldehyde | KGB: but if you can hit the ctrl first, lots of times i will be switching over to a shell and i will come back and the window jumped | 19:55 |
| mynameistux | I could've sworn I left it right here | 19:55 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, yeah It has the correct filepaths in it. | 19:55 |
| Dr_Willis | lolmatic: thers been cases where ive used wine instead of the linux native game. because wine did it better. | 19:55 |
| comptekki | that is i'm booting off of installer and it says there is no disk to install too, but bios says there is | 19:55 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, It = twelve.txt | 19:55 |
| FoolsRun | lolmatic, if it's an old DOS game, check out http://www.dosbox.com/ for potential help getting it running right. | 19:55 |
| KGB | Dr_Willis, same thing happens with the other user | 19:56 |
| Dr_Willis | !games | 19:56 |
| ubottu | Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and http://www.penguspy.com/ | 19:56 |
| * rcmaehl left dnz on his router and forgot to turn it off and was like WTF, why am i getting so many firewall blocked connection entries | 19:56 | |
| rcmaehl | Hurr durr | 19:56 |
| KGB | Is there any way I can reconfig the power manager? | 19:56 |
| Dr_Willis | KGB: that is odd.. You could try 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' and see if it reinstals anything. | 19:56 |
| KGB | Uh | 19:56 |
| lolmatic | FoolsRun: i have the linux version of ja2 | 19:56 |
| red2kic | KGB: dpkg-reconfigure, maybe. | 19:56 |
| Dr_Willis | KGB: i would wokder if some files did not get currupted during install. there may be deeper issues. | 19:56 |
| lolmatic | it runs pretty well, only the sound is missing | 19:56 |
| === mirco_ is now known as mirco | ||
| KGB | Dr_Willis, my comp worked fine until this morning, though | 19:57 |
| KGB | red2kic, just dpkg-reconfigure | 19:57 |
| KGB | ? | 19:57 |
| KGB | or more after it | 19:57 |
| Dr_Willis | KGB: could be some odd update/bug. hard to tell. | 19:57 |
| red2kic | KGB: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure $PACKAGE" | 19:57 |
| red2kic | KGB: I'm not too sure. :) | 19:57 |
| FoolsRun | Does anyone have a preference for "home backup server", Ubuntu as the server backing up Windows clients? | 19:57 |
| Dr_Willis | !backup | 19:58 |
| ubottu | There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 19:58 |
| red2kic | FoolsRun: Ask in #ubuntu-server -- They might have better experiences with that. :) | 19:58 |
| KGB | Dr_Willis, would 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' delete any of my files? | 19:58 |
| FoolsRun | thanks, I'll give that a shot. | 19:58 |
| candyban | FoolsRun, Why don't you have a look at backuppc ? | 19:58 |
| Dr_Willis | KGB: the package manager should NEVER touch files in the users home dirs.. | 19:58 |
| === aron is now known as Guest98132 | ||
| FoolsRun | candyban: I saw an article about that. Do you have any personal experience? | 19:58 |
| KGB | Dr_Willis, good enough for me | 19:58 |
| Dr_Willis | KGB: makes sence.. but people have a hard time unerstanding that 'concept' :) | 19:59 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, see: http://pastebin.com/wm1qCAvA | 19:59 |
| candyban | FoolsRun, yes ... it's pretty good for linux backup ... I know it can also do Windows backups (but no experience here) | 19:59 |
| shakir | how to send messages in private network woth terminal , Im using a wirelles router | 19:59 |
| Dr_Willis | KGB: for example removeing firefox. will NOT remove your firefox settings/configs/ | 19:59 |
| candyban | FoolsRun, it is a lot more intuitive than dirvish :) | 20:00 |
| s3r3n1t7 | KGB, apt will never add, remove or otherwise modify files in your home directory. However, if you are referring to system files, those may be modified if the installation of the chosen packages would otherwise not be possible. Looking from the error you have, it's safe to use the command. | 20:00 |
| rcmaehl | Dr_Willis: yes it will if you do sudo apt-get --purge remove firefox | 20:00 |
| FoolsRun | candyban: cool. BackupPC didn't seem to have been updated as recently as the other solutions, but I guess if it works that's not a big deal. | 20:00 |
| Dr_Willis | rcmaehl: Hmm.. I dont think so.. Never noticed any options to scan every home dir and remove files. | 20:01 |
| candyban | FoolsRun, you'll have a webinterface with all your backups ... just click on the server/box and it will restore the file | 20:01 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, 15:01:16 brb | 20:01 |
| [snake] | est | 20:01 |
| FoolsRun | candyban, that's pretty awesome. | 20:01 |
| rcmaehl | Dr_Willis: --purge removes all settings and configuration | 20:01 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: one sec | 20:01 |
| Dr_Willis | rcmaehl: not USER settings.. but system settings | 20:01 |
| benzaldehyde | rcmaehl: i would have to agree with Dr_Willis | 20:02 |
| Dr_Willis | Ive seen people askin here how to remove all the users firefox or whatver setting files.. via apt. and i recall them being told it dont work that way. | 20:03 |
| rcmaehl | Dr_Willis: let's see | 20:03 |
| Zarathust | I'm currently trying to install squashfs-tools from source to have xz compression support | 20:03 |

| benzaldehyde | urgodfather: who could say no to a father and a diety, message away | 20:04 |
| rcmaehl | you're right | 20:04 |
| Zarathust | this file is available in /usr/local/lib but my executable in /usr/local/bin doesn't seem to check for that directory | 20:04 |

| Dr_Willis | kernix: sudo apt-get install flash<tab> (i think) and look for flashplayer-installer (i think) | 20:05 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, back... hey.. can you explain all of that jibber jabber? I should probably learn now :P | 20:05 |
| red2kic | !flash | kernix | 20:05 |
| ubottu | kernix: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 20:05 |
| Dr_Willis | or was it flash-plugin-installer | 20:05 |
| Dr_Willis | kernix: i think 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras' pulls in flash and other bits you proberly want also. | 20:06 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: cat twelve.txt | <-- you get this? | 20:06 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, yes. | 20:07 |
| KGB | Dr_Willis, I tried 'sudo apt-get --reinstall install ubuntu-desktop' and that didn't do anything, besides change my screen resolution | 20:07 |
| * Zarathust gives a handful of internets to Dr_Willis | 20:07 | |

| KGB | Anyone else have an idea as to what's wrong? | 20:08 |
| Dr_Willis | KGB: you could try reinstalling gnome. it sounds like some system files got messed up some how. | 20:08 |
| DaPenguin | KGB, the reconfigure is probably what actually changed your res | 20:08 |
| Dr_Willis | KGB: or you got some file system curruption. | 20:08 |

| kernix | take it easy all laters | 20:11 |
| Dr_Willis | KGB: as a work around (to get you to a desktop) you could instll some other window manager like icewm, then try to figure out whats going on from a desktop at least. :) | 20:11 |
| Dr_Willis | KGB: its posible a reinstall of 'gnome power manager' package may fix it. | 20:11 |
| KGB | Dr_Willis, how? | 20:12 |
| rcmaehl | KGB: sudo apt-get --purge remove gnome-power-* && sudo apt-get install gnome-power-* | 20:12 |
| KGB | rcmaehl, k | 20:12 |
| Dr_Willis | KGB: i would also try a 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get upgrade' first. | 20:12 |

| Dr_Willis | KGB: 'sudo apt-get install icewm' to install icewm for a 'minimal' desktop | 20:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Im suggesting icewm. because its easy to figure out. :) | 20:12 |
| Dr_Willis | theres dozen of others you could use instead of icewm | 20:13 |
| rcmaehl | Dr_Willis: I have all the others | 20:13 |
| KGB | rcmaehl, that seems to be working | 20:13 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, I wish I was as cool as you :) | 20:13 |
| rcmaehl | :D | 20:13 |
| KGB | ok, seems like it installed ok | 20:14 |
| Dr_Willis | rcmaehl: twm was supposed to get 'compositing' support a few months back :) | 20:14 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: you would add if...else in the loop, because your file contains some line to folders only, either you can remove them manually (or by cat twelve |grep *wav > newlist) | 20:14 |
| Dr_Willis | [snake]: also watch out for spaces in filename/paths when doing this sort of task. | 20:14 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, I will remove them manually... theres not that many. | 20:14 |

| frewsxcv | is there a way to do whois from the command line? | 20:17 |
| rcmaehl | irvken: you can try to force the monitor to display by doing: sudo xrandr --fb 1024x768 | 20:17 |
| irvken | 1280 x 1024 rcmaehl | 20:17 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, I think I could just add after the echo quotes a '>> twelve.txt' | 20:17 |
| coz_ | frewsxcv, http://linux.about.com/library/cmd/blcmdl1_whois.htm | 20:18 |
| rcmaehl | irvken: oh then sudo xrandr --fb 1280x1024 | 20:18 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: Dr_Willis is right, you have whites there, so in command you may need to use $line in quotes | 20:18 |
| Dr_Willis | KGB: must of been a currupted config file.. some how.. | 20:18 |
| rcmaehl | irvken: it work? | 20:19 |

| === derp|gym is now known as derp | ||
| irvken | its a different machine | 20:22 |
| shcherbak | use gcontool | 20:22 |
| Dr_Willis | vi and its recprd/macro featuer is handy :) | 20:22 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, unfortunatly something went wrong, and I now have an evegrowing 500mb file on my disk.. | 20:22 |
| Pici | benzaldehyde: You'll get a new user for every login shell that is running. So at least 1 for your X session (if applicable) and any other login shells that are running. Check the output of 'w' for details. | 20:23 |
| irvken | cheers I'll be back later | 20:23 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: paste command you used, please. | 20:23 |
| benzaldehyde | Pici: i did not know | 20:23 |
| [snake] | cat twelve.txt | while read line; do echo "ffmpeg -i $line" >> twelve.txt; done; | 20:23 |
| s3r3n1t7 | [snake], it's writing back to itself, which is then read and done again ... | 20:24 |
| shcherbak | coe: gconftool -t string -s /desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename ~/.binfiles/watafla.png | 20:24 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, ahh... oops :P | 20:24 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: not to good | 20:24 |
| s3r3n1t7 | [snake], use a second file which at the end overwrites the original file (if you still wish to do so) | 20:25 |
| s3r3n1t7 | shcherbak, apologies for jumping in | 20:25 |
| [snake] | s3r3n1t7, thanks.. that's a great idea. | 20:25 |
| [snake] | luckily I backed up the file.. :) | 20:25 |
| shcherbak | s3r3n1t7: nvm | 20:26 |
| WLU | how do i set keybindings to keycodes | 20:26 |
| benzaldehyde | Pici: do you do the production environment stuff with the users and ssh logins and all that, because i was kind of wondering if i had a client log in and say that client had some scripts and things, would i see that only in ps aux or would there be multiple instances of the user. kind of a loaded question, sorry | 20:27 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, i suppose this would be better. cat twelve.txt | while read line; do echo "ffmpeg -i $line" >> kjfivetwo.txt; done; | 20:27 |
| MK` | my keyboard has a spare key that was wired to launch an OEM application. How can I map that to another key? | 20:28 |
| === mirco_ is now known as mirco | ||
| shcherbak | [snake]: Why you trying to save wave as txt? | 20:28 |
| Pici | benzaldehyde: If the user was actively running those scripts you would see them in your ps output. | 20:28 |
| benzaldehyde | Pici: but not neccessarily in w | 20:28 |
| benzaldehyde | Pici: ? | 20:28 |
| === lochwood is now known as wingdspur | ||
| Pici | benzaldehyde: No, not necessarily. | 20:28 |
| [snake] | I'm not... I'm writing all of that file to another. | 20:29 |
| [snake] | I think :P | 20:29 |
| benzaldehyde | Pici: makes sense. thanks | 20:29 |
| antivirtel | Pici: this means, that if I have 1 CPU, and the average is 1(or more), my CPU is used all the time, right? "a load average of 1 means a single CPU is loaded all the time while on a 4 CPU system it means it was idle 75% of the time." | 20:29 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, http://pastebin.com/Qs1KznLw | 20:29 |
| Pici | antivirtel: This server I'm on now has 4 cpus. So if its load average was 4, it would mean that all 4 cpus were being used 100% of the time. If the load average was 1, then only a quarter of the cpus would be in use. | 20:30 |
| tuxx1 | hello again, I got a black window bar and I added CPU frequency monitor to top panel but I cant see the frequency because its also written in black, can I change the color of the text? | 20:30 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: What ffmpeg -i supposed to do? | 20:31 |
| antivirtel | Pici, maybe I understand. I have only 1 CPU here in my laptop, so the more than 1 average means 100%+ usage, right? | 20:31 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, it's going to set whatever comes after -i to the input file. | 20:31 |
| Pici | antivirtel: Yes. | 20:32 |
| [snake] | But I'm not done. | 20:32 |
| [snake] | I actually need to start over -_- | 20:32 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: You want to merge files? | 20:32 |
| DraZoro | My system clock(time) keeps on setting itself with a 5 hour difference. Even before rebooting the system. Say I change it manually to the right time in a couple of minutes it goes to the wrong time again. I have changed it in the computer BIOS, but I still get the same results. I tried to look if the is an application changing the clock still with no luck. I am using Maverick ... | 20:32 |
| theshadow | how can I run apache2 -S w/out getting apache2: bad user name ${APACHE_RUN_USER} | 20:32 |
| MK` | When I go to keyboard shortcuts and try to use the key to make a shortcut, it doesn't seem to be recognized, does this mean I need to edit the layout specification first? | 20:32 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, no... I'm not done I'll set the output afterwards. | 20:32 |
| [snake] | shcherbak, thanks for the command... I will toy with it until I get my command for ffmpeg for each file. | 20:33 |
| antivirtel | Pici, thanks... the logical thing is, that if I have eg. 4 average, there are 3x more processes waiting for the CPU, right? | 20:33 |
| Pici | antivirtel: Exactly. | 20:33 |
| antivirtel | ok, thanks, I have no more questions | 20:34 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: yes, but new file is hard to interpret for bash since every line starts from ffmpeg, but you got concept. | 20:34 |
| genii-around | DraZoro: Possibly you are running ntpdate and it grabs time from a server not in your zone | 20:34 |
| hiexpo | hey i deleted the applet on my task bar that had volume control and my messenger i am on ubuntu 10.04 | 20:35 |

| Geet | y dont hibernate works in ubuntu | 20:37 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: it is like this: do ffmpeg -i "$line" -b64 "$line" (will overwrite old file) | 20:37 |
| DraZoro | meganerd: That might be it it gives me EDT instead of SAST +6 | 20:38 |
| Geet | problem:hibernate in ubuntu | 20:38 |
| shcherbak | [snake]: or: do ffmpeg -i "$line" -b64 "$line." (will add point after name in new file) | 20:38 |

| [snake] | ActionParsnip, I have a list of commands to convert a ton of wav files... but I need to add to the end the output name. If you can it would be better for the files to keep there name and path. but if not, then it reads a line, and adds $x to the end. and x = 00. then for each line going down it will be x= x+1. | 21:12 |
| ActionParsnip | felon: some models aren't supported though which sucks | 21:12 |
| ActionParsnip | [snake]: the command to increment would be: x = $x+1 | 21:13 |

| shane4ubuntu | sudipta: ok, thanks, I will look through those then. | 21:59 |
| davers | candyban: no i updated my router | 22:00 |
| dustin_ | can you play blueray and hi-def dvds on ubuntu | 22:00 |
| davers | candyban: then only think that changed was my internal ip | 22:00 |
| ayecee | davers: well then, must be a hostname or ip address somewhere else in the config, I suppose. On a single ip name-based vhost, there's really no reason for hostnames in configs except for servername/serveralias | 22:00 |
| ActionParsnip | SuperPaco69: use cursors to scroll up and down | 22:00 |
| candyban | davers, I have not been following the complete thread ... but first make sure your DNS is pointing to the correct server | 22:01 |
| cosmin_s | hi,I have a question about license of ubuntu server ... I want to use it on a server on my company , I should buy it or it's completly free ? | 22:01 |

| ActionParsnip | cosmin_s: its free | 22:01 |
| davers | candyban: it is i can get to the default site using a vhost url | 22:01 |
| davers | candyban: which is the problem | 22:01 |
| ActionParsnip | SuperPaco69: if you run gparted do you see the disk in there? | 22:01 |
| cosmin_s | thanks | 22:01 |

| davers | meganerd: i do now but i had it deleted | 22:06 |
| SuperPaco69 | ActionParsnip, I get this: Inhibit all polling failed: Only uid 0 is authorized to inhibit the daemon | 22:06 |

| sudipta | <shane4ubuntu>yep.... | 22:07 |
| SuperPaco69 | ActionParsnip, thanks alot for the help any ways :) | 22:07 |
| sudipta | <shane4ubuntu>that's a way of doin' | 22:07 |
| ayecee | Superstar: does "lsmod | grep 8139" return anything? | 22:07 |
| erUSUL | Superstar: try this « sudo modprobe 8139cp » | 22:07 |
| SuperPaco69 | ActionParsnip, do you recommend me to partition the drive?? | 22:07 |
| shane4ubuntu | sudipta: provided it works. :) Seems like the simplicity I was looking for. | 22:07 |
| ActionParsnip | SuperPaco69: all I can suggest is to try a different port on the board | 22:07 |
| erUSUL | Superstar: then run "ifconfig -a" did eth0 appeared ? | 22:07 |
| ayecee | erUSUL: uses 8139too, apparently. | 22:08 |
| ActionParsnip | SuperPaco69: you will need to or you on't be able to use it | 22:08 |
| SuperPaco69 | ActionParsnip, there is the problem! | 22:08 |
| SuperPaco69 | thanks!!! | 22:08 |
| SuperPaco69 | :D | 22:08 |
| erUSUL | ayecee: the problem with this NICS is that you nor the system) can not know which driver will work so you have to try with both manually | 22:08 |
| erUSUL | Superstar: so? | 22:09 |
| ayecee | erUSUL: ahh | 22:09 |
| Superstar | erusul: nothing appeared for the first and for "ifconfig -a" eth0 does appear | 22:09 |
| Superstar | ayecee: yes its returning 3 lines of numbers | 22:09 |
| erUSUL | Superstar: ok so it uses the cp one do this « echo 8139cp | sudo tee -a /etc/modules » | 22:10 |
| candyban | davers, what is the output of "apache2ctl -t -D DUMP_VHOSTS" ? | 22:10 |
| erUSUL | Superstar: you are now set up :) | 22:10 |
| Superstar | erusul: it says 8139cp | 22:10 |
| jk4lp | hello | 22:11 |
| meganerd | davers: after NameVirtualHost there should be <VirtualHost *:80>, | 22:11 |
| erUSUL | Superstar: as i said everything should be ok now. | 22:12 |

| ayecee | Superstar: okay, eth0 shows up now. what's not working at this point? | 22:13 |
| erUSUL | Superstar: you said « and for "ifconfig -a" eth0 does appear » if you have eth0 now it means that the driver is working .... | 22:13 |
| meganerd | Superstar: type "ip addr" without the quotes | 22:15 |

| ActionParsnip | xiong: reboot with the printer attached and it may just detect | 22:17 |
| ayecee | Superstar: maybe requires reboot? could be the 8139too module has left it in a bad state before 8139cp was loaded. | 22:18 |

| mathinz | I lost my grub.cfg and have almost recreated it from the LiveCD - when I run chroot to my encrypted root partition and run 'grub-mkconfig', I get root=/dev/mapper/udisks-luks-uuid-8576cbe1-508e-458b-a12f-144b102fa243-uid999 which I guess is based on the LiveCD user - how should I change this for normal use? | 23:03 |
| meganerd | diffra: that will work | 23:03 |

| Chubcorp | Is there a way for the computer to auto connect to wifi when it's in range? Because when I leave the range at school and enter the range for my own WIFI, I have to disable wifi, the re-enable. Is there a way around this? | 23:04 |
| genii-around | diffra: You might want to change the partition type to something like hex 83 in fdisk | 23:04 |
| meganerd | diffra: it will not remove the MBR, so if this was a disk that had windows, the boot record will still be there | 23:04 |
| pixmin | pixmin, --reinstall did it now though :) thanks! | 23:04 |
| jrtayloriv | Nick_Meister, Is direct rendering enabled? (Install mesa-utils and then run this: glxinfo | grep 'direct') | 23:05 |

| Roasted_ | Question - I'm running an Ubuntu desktop edition server with LTSP thin clients. I have NTP installed and I set the time zone accordingly in the lts.conf file, but my clients are coming across as saying its 2pm when its 6pm. Does NTP take a LONG time (more than 15 minutes) to sync up properly initially? | 23:10 |
| banke247 | i need to run package updates i think i broke something in my xoerg | 23:10 |
| Nick_Meister | jrtayloriv, so when i turn on vsync in nvidia settings i get shearing, when i turn it off i get outright laggy window moving | 23:10 |
| diffra | banke247: if you have the ability to, switch the router to be unencrypted for a short time and then try to connect. it's *much* simpler when you're working on the command line. | 23:10 |
| skpl | how can i format my hd? | 23:10 |

| banke247 | its WPA | 23:12 |
| banke247 | meganerd, WPA | 23:12 |
| diffra | meganerd: I've only done it once and i vowed never to do it again after that :) | 23:12 |
| whiteknightNY | anyone know of a good place to get themes | 23:12 |
| diffra | seemed easier to pick up the box and plug it into the router | 23:12 |
| meganerd | ok, from the command line type the following, without the quotes "wpa-passphrase essid passphrase > mywpa.conf" | 23:13 |

| banke247 | it just prompted | 23:15 |
| banke247 | looks like it went rhough | 23:15 |
| meganerd | banke247: replace essid with the id of your network, and passphrase with the passphrase that you use | 23:15 |
| meganerd | banke247: just to be sure "cat mywpa.conf" | 23:15 |
| meganerd | banke247: you should see the essid, passphrase, and the hash of the passphrase (long random looking bit) | 23:16 |

| urgodfather | lol | 23:41 |
| urgodfather | sup | 23:41 |
| meganerd | urgodfather: how familiar? | 23:41 |
| CobZo | banke247: just mount it from outside. if it's a network filesystem then it doesn't matter if you mount it from inside or outside | 23:41 |
| urgodfather | familiar enough to possibly explain why it the driver breaks the splash screen | 23:41 |
| urgodfather | im sure its something to do with the screen res. while it boots up/down | 23:42 |
| urgodfather | but, how to fix | 23:42 |
| banke247 | CobZo, is it possible to run a command like sudo apt-get update? . from the chroot | 23:42 |

| meganerd | banke247: if you booted a rescue cd, you mount the partition, then chroot to it "chroot /path/to/mounted/fs/ bash" | 23:45 |
| meganerd | banke247: best to do it as root | 23:45 |

| guest_ | is it possible to set up a network between two computers through blue tooth? | 23:46 |

| jrib | ahmedhelal: the format for the version numbers is YEAR.MONTH | 23:49 |
| callaghan | urgodfather: from the text: Below, we provide two fixes for this issue: the first one will fix the resolution of the Ubuntu logo, pretty much like it was when you installed Ubuntu; and the second one will remove the logo, showing only a dark screen until the login manager appears. | 23:49 |
| edbian | ahmedhelal, Again, it goes year.month and they come out every six months. so it's October and April every year | 23:49 |
| callaghan | urgodfather: whichever one suits your needs best :) | 23:50 |

| benzaldehyde | banke247: or add a few more repositories to source.list | 23:59 |
| arand | xevious: It sould be that simple yes, take care to set the usb stick as the target for the bootloader as well | 23:59 |
