jstoonefisix: but WTF?!00:00

Jon--There's some inconsistency in the way that gnome-terminal title is being handled. I have the setting set to "keep initial title". When I run 'gnome-terminal -t test' from the Terminal, the title does become test. It also does this for alt+f2 run menu. However, when I script this same command, it instead uses the value "Initial title" in the preferences for gnome-terminal. Why?00:10
Jon--I need this property for a script. ^00:10
jstoonefisix: It says that "there is no such "nich/channel" when i pm you?00:10

laptop_userim just asking for a recommendation for which client00:16
shcherbaklaptop_user: Is there any choice for Skype?00:17
aure_hello00:17
Aginorlaptop_user, there is no choice for skype, there is only skype that does skype00:17
laptop_userim not sure, i read something about possibly using pidgin, empathy, or something else00:17
laptop_userim using skype right now00:18
Dmolehello I'm looking for some basic setup help; I can't get a laptop connected to internet wifi, lan, or dialup.00:18
ActionParsniplaptop_user: skype is proprietary so the ONLY client is the skype client00:18
Dmolelaptop_user: I like google voice/chat more then skype ~00:18
Aginorlaptop_user, you might be confusing "real" voip telephony with skype00:18
shcherbaklaptop_user: All mentioned are different protocols.00:18
ActionParsniplaptop_user: you can use pidgin to do text chat on skype only00:18
laptop_userok, thanks for the responses everyone00:18
laptop_userwasnt sure00:18
Aginorlaptop_user, for real voip, there's plenty of alternatives, but they are not compatible with skype00:18

laptop_userthat is a thread that gave me the idea that there might be an alternative00:19
matthew_i give up00:20
metalekshow well can the i3-390m play 1080p stuff through an hdmi on a larger screen?00:21
Dmolematthew_: with?00:21
Aginorlaptop_user, that's for the text chat, yes, and it looks like it comes with instructions for how to make it working00:21
laptop_userbut the video doesnt work, correct?00:21
Aginormetaleks, if you can play 1080p in full res on any screen, it will work well. screen size does not matter, just resolution00:22
Aginorlaptop_user, no voice, no video00:22
metaleksAginor: okay, then a 1920x1080 resolution00:22
metaleksAginor: would it still be fine?00:22
laptop_userok, thats what i thought00:22
laptop_userthanks again everyone00:23
Aginormetaleks, probably :D but I don't know00:23
Dmolemetaleks: should work fine with that cpu (but depends on your player and encoding of choice)00:23
metaleksDmole: all right, thanks00:24
|Long|can i use dual boot (ubuntu and xp) if i installed ubuntu first?00:24
laptop_userhey what browser does everyone use?00:24
Dmole|Long|: yes but you have to reinstall grub aver windows00:25
laptop_user|Long|: yes you can00:25
Dmolelaptop_user:firefox00:25
Aginor|Long|, yes, but xp will clobber the boot loader, you will have boot from a live cd and reinstall grub00:25
Aginor!grub | |Long|00:25
ubottu|Long|: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards.00:25
shcherbak|Long|: You will need to recover grub, after installing xp.00:25
matthew_im back00:25
charlietango@laptop_user chrome00:25
ActionParsniplaptop_user: chromium daily build and arora00:25
|Long|wow, i didnt know so much work so xp must ne loaded first then?00:26
|Long|thanks guys for the info00:26
Aginor|Long|, it's not terribly hard, but it is less hassle if you install windows first00:26
matthew_my problem was my display out has overscan issues and for some reason it wont show the intire desktop it cuts off the edges00:26
shcherbaklaptop_user: elinks00:26
ActionParsnip|Long|: it just makes life easier00:26
Dmole|Long|: you probably want to partition with the ubuntu live cd first00:26
Aginormatthew_, you could try running "xvidtune"00:27
laptop_useractionparsnip, i thought chromium was an OS00:27
matthew_Aginor, where could i get it00:27
ActionParsnip!info chromium-browser00:27

|Long|Dmole, i did partition half the drive for ubuntu and other half for xp00:27
Dmolematthew_: are there not settings on the monitor for that?00:27

Aginormatthew_, if it's still around, it should be installed as a part of the x-server00:27
ActionParsniplaptop_user: it'smade by the same guys, the daily buildis the bleeding ede build compiled once a day and ppa updated00:27
matthew_Aginor, i just typed it in a terminall and it lanched00:28
ActionParsniplaptop_user: the bugs and such are used to make chrome00:28
Dmole|Long|: ok but you will need a 1G swap partition for ubuntu +20-30G for each OS00:28
j5is there any real good way to alt tab out of OpenGL apps?00:28
jiffe98is there a way to not have a laptop do anything when the lid is shut?00:28
Aginormatthew_, I'm assuming you're using VGA since you're having overscan issues00:28
j5"alt tab"00:28
laptop_useractionparsnip, what does ppa mean?00:28
laptop_userim a newb00:28
ActionParsnipjiffe98: look in power options00:28
matthew_Aginor, hdmi00:28
jiffe98I'm looking through power options and all I see is blank screen, hibernate shut down etc00:29
ActionParsniplaptop_user: it's a 3rd party repository00:29
matthew_Aginor, im assuming its overscan issues00:29
laptop_useroh ok00:29
roadrawts\network00:29
Aginormatthew_, it might still work for you, but I no longer have a clue about it, I didn't think hdmi could have overscan issues00:29
laptop_useras opposed to ubuntu's repo, correct?00:29
charlietango@jiffe98 "when laptop lid is closed"00:29
shcherbakj5: hm, second xserver? sound can be nightmare in such solution.00:29
Dmole|Long|: I tent to make the renaming space into a shared ntfs, resulting in 4 partitions00:29
jiffe98charlietango: yeah I00:29
matthew_Aginor, it just wont show the intire desktop00:30
jiffe98I'm not seeing an option to do nothing00:30
ActionParsnipjiffe98: not sure then. I've seen lots of people asking for this but it was a while back00:30
skullboyok how do i change the kern in /boot in a chroot env and still be able to use the disk00:30
charlietango@jiffe98 there should be a 'blank screen' option in that dropdown for both AC power and Battery power00:30
Aginormatthew_, perhaps you have your resolution set to something higher than the monitor can support and you get cutting/scrolling when you get to the edges of the screen00:30
|Long|Dmole, thanks for the info00:31
matthew_Aginor, it doesent scroll00:31
ActionParsniplaptop_user: as opposed to the official repos00:31
jiffe98charlietango: there is but I have this hooked up to a secondary monitor and I don't want it to blank when I close the lid00:31
charlietango@jiff98 are the screens mirrored?00:32
jiffe98charlietango: they are00:32
Aginormatthew_, look into the resolution thing, but besides from that I have no idea00:32
skullboyok how do i change the kern in /boot in a chroot env and still be able to use the disk00:32

matthew_Aginor, logs for what?00:34
shcherbakripdaflip: ls -oh ~/Downloads ?00:34
matthew_Aginor, where do i look00:34
Aginormatthew_, in /var/log00:35
ripdaflipnope, I hosted a file in RapidShare.com. I'm looking for a way to see how many times it was downloaded00:35

bonhoffercharlietango, is compiz simple enough, or is there something more lightweight00:39
bonhoffereven installed by default -- to tile and arrange windows00:39

Dmolelaptop_user: no00:40
bonhoffercharlietango, i'm looking for a quick kill00:40
laptop_useractionparsnip: hardcore- as in using, or attempting to use linux on anything and everything possible00:40
ripdaflipshcherbak: none of the two. This question isn't linux specific. I'm asking it here only because you guys are very helpful. I uploaded it in a website (RapidShare.com). Then it can be downloaded via direct link. I'm looking for a way to see the count of dw-s. I'm not hosting the website or the file ..00:40
Guest8665lol00:40
laptop_useri.e. my routers have linux00:40
bonhofferdon't want to change from the default window manager00:40

ActionParsniplaptop_user: I use it on all my systems, but not on anything and everything00:40
bonhofferwhat am does ubuntu use out of the box?00:41
Dmolebonhoffer: compiz will do all the tricks mac knows and way way more with the right plugins00:41
charlietango@bonhoffer install compizconfig settings manager00:41
charlietangouses gui, minimal customization necessary00:41
laptop_useractionparsnip, have your ever attempted to put on anything else?00:41
ActionParsniplaptop_user: most do00:41
bonhofferlooks like compiz is what i want . . .just worried that it is going to be crazy powerful00:41
laptop_useractionparsnip, such as a ppc00:41
ActionParsniplaptop_user: just systems really00:41
shcherbakripdaflip: No clue, rather not possible, unless RapidShare gives you such option.00:41
charlietango@bonhoffer it is a well done balance of usability and power00:42
bonhofferthanks, i'll look into compiz00:42
ActionParsniplaptop_user: thats just another PC like any other, its not special00:42
ripdaflipshcherbak: Thanks for the attention :)00:42
shcherbakbonhoffer: Gnome, Kubuntu = KDE, Xubuntu = Xfce, etc...00:42
Dmoleripdaflip: use a fancy download link that logs people before sending them to rapidshare00:42
charlietango@bonhoffer in terms of actual window management, there are several plugin options. i would suggest looking at 'maximumize' first for what you are wanting.00:43
laptop_userbut how would it work b/c of driver issues? or would one have to develop drivers00:43
bonhoffercharlietango, thanks -- i have to run, but i'll check out compiz and maximumize00:43
ActionParsniplaptop_user: the drivers are compiled for ppc too....00:43
Dmolebonhoffer: empathe IM client00:43
Dmoley00:44
laptop_userhow would one go about putting it on there via nand00:44
laptop_usernot using haret00:44

BlackRat90ZykoticK9: this is correct, i oringally tried to update to 1-3 from 1-1 using that ppa03:23
milamberBlackRat90: it looks like you have 2 versions installed, which one needs to be gone?03:23
BlackRat90milamber: I want 1.303:23
BlackRat90milamber: how ever if i do wine --version i get 1.1.4403:24
milamberBlackRat90: so do: sudo apt-get remove wine1.203:24
BlackRat90milamber: it says wine1.2 is not installed03:24
phillyjalright, thanks all; i just lost an ebay bid cause the screensaver came on03:24
awkisopenUpgraded from 10.04.2 to 10.10, right-click doesn't work. What do?03:25
lahwranis there any way to get chrome addons to show their icon in the gnome panel?03:25
milamberBlackRat90: sudo dpkg --remove wine1.203:25
BlackRat90it says to use --purge to remove the config files in the system?03:26
lahwranor maybe a scriptable system like chrome addons? I'd like a todo tool where I click on a button in the gnome panel and it shows me a list of things i have to do, with the whole interface right there03:26
milamberBlackRat90: it depends on if you want that or not. you have something goofy going on w/ how you installed packages. i don't know what the ppa wrote over. i would leave them for now, but that's your call.03:26
KINGOFSWORDShi is worth gettin swiftfox?03:26
rwwno03:27
ZykoticK9BlackRat90, --purge will NOT touch things in your home directory (and ~/.wine) is where your settings/programs are stored, so if there is a conflict between old and new SETTINGS for wine - you still might have to move that directory03:27
KINGOFSWORDSis it crap browser then..im using ff and chrome03:27
BlackRat90milamber: eh, i did the purge that this rate i might just end up reinstalling ubuntu as it stands i have alot of clutter on my system03:27
milamberBlackRat90: did the command execute successfully?03:28
BlackRat90mllamber: yes and now only 1.3 shows up if i repeat the process of grep wine03:28

euclidI'm installing Ubuntu on my friend's laptop he's new I was wondering if there are any downsides to installing x64 bit on his machine he has 4GB of ram04:23
ubusammyn150swapso, wubi is only using 256 because a windows file or partiton has this allocated?04:23
Raikiaeuclid: Not much anymore.  Sometimes flash is slower, but thats the only problem I've had (rarely) in x64.04:23
edbianeuclid: The one small downside is flash. Which apparently sucks or something.  I don't know the details but people complain about 64 bit flash on here all the time.04:23
slaeyaeuclid: no downside, it allows for future upgrades04:23
ubusammyn150swapeuclid its good04:24
slaeyaI haven't ever had the problem of flash running slow in x64.04:24
edbianeuclid: 32 bit will be slightly less efficient and does not allow him to use more than 3.2 Gb of ram04:24
Raikiaeuclid: flash (if properly installed) works fine in x64.  It used to have significant issues (but most are fixed now)04:24
euclidI had a problem with x64 flash a while back and heard that development was discontinued still true?04:25
slaeyaalthough PAE would compensate for 3.2GB limitation of ram in x3204:25
edbiantrue04:25
slaeyaI mean 32bit04:25
ubusammyn150swappae does?04:25
slaeya!pae04:25
ubottuTo use more than ~3.2GB RAM on a 32bit system you can install the PAE-enabled kernel. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnablingPAE for more info04:25
ubusammyn150swapthen xp home would be the same as 32bit limits04:25
ZykoticK9slaeya, not really - PAE is a "hack" it can't let any one process use more then 3.2GB04:25
edbianRaikia: BTW, we know what you mean but technically it's x86 (which is 32 bit) and amd64 which is 64bit.04:25
Raikiaedbian: Yeah, sorry04:26
edbianubusammyn150swap: Yeah I don't know if there ever was a 64 bit xp04:26
rwwedbian: there was. It wasn't good.04:26
edbianhaha04:26
edbianWas the 32 bit one 'good' ?04:26
rwwand technically, Ubuntu is i686, not x86 ;P04:26
ubusammyn150swapso enableing pae on a 64bit would "hack" to 128?04:26
edbianI love technicalities :)04:27
euclidso flash is good x64?04:27
edbianubusammyn150swap: There is no such thing04:27
ZykoticK9ubusammyn150swap, PAE is NOT required on 64bit04:27
^NiNjAmost buntu installs will automatically select PAE kernels if it sees more than 3.2 gigs of ram04:27
blah234^NiNjA, so installing the updates is my first step, and then see if that fixes the issues?04:27
^NiNjAblah234,  thats what I would do04:27
edbianblah234: Yes definitely.  What is is the issue?04:27
ZykoticK9Good comparison of 32/PAE/64 bit at phoronix.com http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_32_pae&num=104:27

blah234edbian, i just re-installed my OS and it's running pretty slow.04:27

^NiNjAperhaps a dependency isnt installed right04:27
rwwwell, based on the same thing as Win Server 2k304:28
gartraleuclid: no, x64 flash is Adobe's fault for being bad04:28
slaeyaZykoticK9: thanks for the heads up ... was contemplating a PAE instead of x64 on one of my other machines.04:28
edbianblah234: Is there a process taking up a lot of resources?  (look in gnome-system-monitor)04:28

slaeyaI've always used x64 systems until last week ... when some numb nuts (ME!! ;-)) Downloaded the wrong version and installed an x86 and ended up with 3.2gb ram instead of 16.04:28

ubottutarik:: 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. :-)04:31
blah234edbian, yes.  didn't think of that because firefox typically doesn't have that drastic an effect on my system.04:31
tarikis there any way to auto- install all drivers succesfully04:31
edbianblah234: problem solved then?04:31

^NiNjAblah234,  alot of times a package may have gotten broken on install or a dependency failed to for any number of reasons. That being said often times an update will show a missing dependency or package as an update04:33
edbianblah234: No clue.  You're running firefox 3 (right?) which basically means that it is bloated and slow.  I think think that the version number of Ubuntu should have any effect on performance really.04:33
^NiNjAupdating can sometimes cure a lot of issues on a new install04:33

Iankap99_hey does anyone feel like helping a newbie out with ubuntu? (ill trade you a bug i noticed)04:36

KINGOFSWORDSits not there thats what i told u in begininng04:36
tarikno i dont know in the xubuntu :S04:36
tariki am a newbie of linux04:36
edbianIankap99_: What is your issue? (you can give the bug to launchpad)04:36
RaikiaIs it in any other places in the Applications menu?04:36
tarikedbian: i am newbie04:37
Iankap99_can u give it? i hate reporting bugs04:37
Ryalnosyo, can I pester someone with a newbie awk question?04:37
edbiantarik: NO worries.  run sudo lspci in a terminal.  I'm looking for something like 'BCM43XX'  The output is big.  If you get lost in it use pastebin.  paste.ubuntu.com04:37
^NiNjAIankap99_,  what you need help with?04:37
KINGOFSWORDSRaikia no04:37
edbianIankap99_: I have little interest in the bug.  What is your issue?04:37
^NiNjAbest to report your own bugs so it can be checked as hardware specific04:38
Iankap99_well i installed ubuntu yesterday, i need to use it for research (i just started nlp research), my professor told me to learn how to install a program, and that it was more difficult in linux than windows04:38
RaikiaKINGOFSWORDS: open terminal and type "googleearth"04:39
Iankap99_but i have installed a couple programs from the ubuntu software center and it seems easy as clicking one button04:39

^NiNjAll04:39
KINGOFSWORDScmd not found04:39
jiohdiIankap99_, twas not always so04:39
ZykoticK9Iankap99_, so long as you use Ubuntu Software Center or Synaptic - I'd say it's easier to install a program in Ubuntu then Windows04:39
^NiNjAlol it is that easy for some programs04:39
edbiantarik: That's correct!  Hang on a second.04:39
Iankap99_what is synaptic package manager04:40
Iankap99_?04:40
KINGOFSWORDSiankap it dl and install programs for you..correct for ur system04:40
edbiantarik: I am seeing things related to that card (issues) from ubuntu 8.04 and such...04:40
ZykoticK9Iankap99_, just an alternative to Ubuntu Software Center - you'll find Synaptic in most linux distros these days, USC not so much.04:40
tarikedbianbuttt04:40
tariki saw ssid04:40
edbiantarik: What does sudo iwlist scan   do?04:41
jiohdiIankap99_, in the not so distant past, you would down load a thing called a tar ball... a compressed.gz.tz file and then extract its contents... and do things to it like configure and make and then it would tell you that it needed other programs to work first04:41
slaeyatarik: man iwlist04:41
tarikedbian: i saw ssid i write password. but i cannot connect. i changed pass tried again... its false again..04:42
done365Anyone know why none of the dvd programs can access the drive .....google shows nothing04:42
Ryalnoswhat is wrong with these two lines of awk code?04:42
Ryalnos"{$2 ~ /myusername/ { myNR = NR }"04:42
Ryalnos"($10 == "Q") && (NR < myNR)    { nqueue++ ; print $1}  #Number queued."04:42
edbiantarik: I think the driver and card are working fine.  Try turning the password off just to see if you can connect to the wifi.04:42
tariki tried it04:42
Ryalnosdoes awk not restart at the beginning of the file04:42
tarikedbian i tried it04:42
tariki cannot connect04:43

tarikedbian how can i use iwlist04:43
tariki run it04:43
Iankap99_does gimp/vlc come with ubuntu 10.10?04:43
tarikedbian i ran it but i shows usage04:43
edbiantarik: sudo iwlist scan04:43
rwwIankap99_: no04:44
Iankap99_i typed gimp into synaptic and nothing came up04:44
Iankap99_ahh04:44
Iankap99_my apologies04:44
tarikedbian now i see my ap04:45
RaikiaIankap99_: You want "Ubuntu Software Manager" for that, not synaptic04:45
done365dmesg shows a dvd title mounted04:45
edbiantarik: so that command works.  I'm not sure what the issue is. Can you paste.ubuntu.com  the output of dmesg    ??04:45
RaikiaIankap99_: Synaptic still works, but Ubuntu software Manager is more GUI friendly for programs like that04:45
Iankap99_can i get any viruses from synaptic of ubuntu software manager04:46
^NiNjAno viruses in linux to my knowledge04:47
^NiNjAno one writes them for it04:47

hiexpoRaikia, ok got itback now lets see waht i can break now   lol04:47
Raikia^NiNjA: That is not true04:47
KINGOFSWORDSRaikia what am i suppose 2 do04:47
edbiantarik: no no.  The output of dmesg04:47
^NiNjARaikia,  as I sadi "to my knowledge"04:47
Iankap99_no im saying will synaptic allow third party code?04:48
slaeyaIankap99_: It really depends how you use them.  If you use package manager to open a file that is untrusted and you don't know what it does, there is a possibility you could install something that you really don't want04:48
mike-ekimI think I have tried every documentation scenario on the internet04:48
doginabagwhat if I have linux as a virtual machine on win7 and I want to start the pc almost directly to linux, mmmm..... linux as a virtual machine offers me everything it would offer as a real installation?04:48
^NiNjAwhich isn't infallible  lol04:48
mike-ekimand nothing 8(04:48
RaikiaIankap99_: No, you can't get viruses from synaptic or those package managers unless you download a deb file yourself and open it with it04:48
Iankap99_deb file?04:48
Raikia".deb" file04:48
^NiNjAdebian package file04:48
slaeyaIankap99_: however it will explain to you that the file is from an untrusted source and you should not install it unless you know what it is and where it is coming from.04:48

Raikiaapparently virtualbox doesnt work for 64-bit ubuntu?04:49
ZykoticK9Raikia, it most certainly does!04:49
slaeyaRaikia: I'm running virtualbox on x64 now.04:49
RaikiaThe internet stands corrected then04:50
Raikiathanks :-)04:50
^NiNjAIankap99_,  always submit bugs you experience yourself, that way any hardware related or specific issues can be accurately addressed04:50
slaeyaRaikia: since version 1.4 ~ 1.5 virtualbox has supported x64 architecture.04:50
Iankap99_ok, but it's pretty general.04:50
arandRaikia: kvm and vmware are other alternatives, Vbox is probably the most common aon popular04:50
done365seems as though bug reports pretty much go unaddressed04:50
RaikiaOoohh...this explains it.  "Last edited 04/02/2007"04:50
Iankap99_During installation, i spent an hour confused because the username has to be lowercase04:51
^NiNjAstill by submitting bugs personally you can help to give a scope of the problem04:51
Iankap99_there was no indication that it had to be lowercase04:51
RaikiaIankap99_: That has been reported a while ago.  There is no indication for it to be lowercase04:51
tarikedbian what is dmesg04:51
^NiNjAmaybe its a 64-bit only issue, maybe its specific to your hardware04:51

steve_lsdnodvWilco Tango Foxtrot05:10
rwwalan_: installing packages from newer versions of Ubuntu on older versions is not supported officially or in here. Neither is 9.04 in general, since it stopped receiving security updates and became End Of Lifed in October.05:10
rww!eol05:10

alan_is there a workaround?? i just need one package05:11
rwwDiamondcite: 9.04 was October. The odd ordering is because 8.04 was an LTS.05:11

rww!final | sgerbino05:11
ubottusgerbino: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Natty Narwhal and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Natty. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console.05:11

rwwsgerbino: yes.05:12
sgerbinorww: ok, i don't want to ride the development branch passed final release of natty (just to be clear)05:12
alan_i dont have a monitor for the server, is there a way to safely upgrade to the latest version from command line?05:12
luckysmackabstrakt: ok. thx05:12
rwwalan_: the instructions in the EOLUpgrades link ubottu mentioned have instructions for servers05:13
rwwsgerbino: you won't. Regular updates to non-final versions of natty will become natty stable and not the next devel release05:13

slaeyaKINGOFSWORDS: what is your error you are getting ?05:19
ZykoticK9rww, wow - i don't think that is correct.  Partial Upgrade mean impending breakage of some packages (not everything can be upgraded) - or am I mistaken?05:19

KINGOFSWORDSno error its just not opening05:19
hiexposlaeya, what distro is he running also 10.04?05:19
rwwZykoticK9: The whole point of dist-upgrade is to remove packages if necessary to satisfy dependencies (which is generally not necessary except due to breakage)05:19
rwwin almost all scenarios, upgrade and dist-upgrade do the same thing.05:20

kkerwinHowdy. I have an old (8 years) desktop that I'm thinking about repurposing as a word processor. The unit has 512MB RAM and a Pentium 4. Would this be a better candidate for Lubuntu, or for a thin client?

ZykoticK9Seven_Six_Two, actually they still are.  If you start nvidia-settings from the menu, it won't right to xorg.conf (no elevated privilege), so you need to start nvidia-settings with gksu -- if you using sudo you can break your system.  which is explained in the !gksu factoid.08:08

csengeshi, i'm still on ubuntu 8.04 (hardy) amd64 arch. I need to install a 32bit binary (oracle xe). There a plenty of tutorial how to do it, they all say i should install "apt-get install lib6c-i386", however this package is not in my apt-sources. Need i to add a specific source or download the deb package?08:55
Starminnpneftali: You know how in Windows certain directories and files are hidden? And it's a pain to unhide them? In Linux, if you want to "hide" a directory, just add a "." in front of it and to view it do View->Show Hidden Files or something08:55

Ben64jhala: thats pretty much impossible09:42
mehdihow can i make network lan btwn a pc and laptop?09:42
Ben64jhala: have you contacted the police?09:43
red2kicjhala: Make a backup. Have multiple copies spreading over.09:43
jhalaBen64 : police is redundant in technology09:43
montezumagnugr: i get lo, eth0 and wlan0 response, my 3g would have wwan0 but its not listed09:44
Ben64its not about technology, its a stolen item09:44
jhalaBen64 : yes informed police09:44
Ben64you could go around with your phone or a laptop scanning for that mac address09:44
Ben64but it'd be a very small range09:45
susundbergYeah i guess if the laptop would have some program running that would beacon a (pre-known) server X with its current IP address location could be found09:45
ZykoticK9jhala, MAC addresses are only used locally, you can't track by MAC across the internet i'm afraid.09:45
montezumawhen I do lsusb my modem doesnt show up, how can I switch it on09:45
montezumaits internal but connected via usb09:45
jhalaZykoticK9: you mean there can be a similar mac somewhere else too?09:45
Ben64jhala: no, he means mac addresses don't get transmitted over the internet at all09:46
gnugrmontezuma: do you have your essid?09:46
ZykoticK9jhala, shouldn't be no - but IP addresses are used on the internet09:46
montezumaessid?09:46
adnanarpa?09:46
gnugressid number yes09:46
montezumagnugr: i want to connect with my 3g modem, not wlan09:46
gnugrmontezuma: okay m8 sorry09:47
jhalaZykoticK9:  ip are dynamic but mac cannot change . and probability of searching mac is better than ip09:48
jhalaZykoticK9:  but i think the tracking software will have similar setup to search a lost mobile09:48
montezumaits a Ericsson F3507g modem. I can't get it working with wvdial for whatever reason, so I'll try the infamous network-manager again - but the modem needs to be on for this :/09:48
ZykoticK9jhala, IP addresses are converted to MAC only locally - not across the internet.  You can't go searching for a MAC anywhere but on your local network.09:48
Ben64but you cant find mac over internet09:48
wrathologyanyone know how to to install untrusted packages in the software ceneter09:48
red2kicjhala: Do you know what UUID is?09:49
ZykoticK9jhala, so if the theif connects to your local network - you could get'em.09:49
mvoJamesMR: could you please file a bug against update-manager and include all the logs in /var/log/dist-upgrade/* ? that should help diagnose the freeze09:49
=== addi is now known as addi_offline
gnugrjhala: only apple can find it with your serial number, contact apple tho09:49
Ben64gnugr: its not a macintosh!!!!!!!!!!!09:50
jhalared2kic: UUID's are device specific id's. tell me more09:50
gnugropsssss09:50
jhalaZykoticK9: well there is no lan09:50
Morgzi know this is silly, but im installing ubuntu 10.10 off a usb onto a brand new 30gb ssd. do i create a 30gb primary partition at / or do I use less and save space for the swap?09:50
red2kicjhala: Right. MAC is the same thing for ethernet cards. What is the chance of you finding a particular UUID over Internet? Zilch. Zero.09:50
jhalagnugr: not a mac. i was a netbook.09:50
ZykoticK9jhala, then a MAC is no good for finding them.09:50
StarminnMorgz: The SSD is empty?09:50
Ben64Morgz: don't put swap on SSD09:50
pentesileaI'd like to do some artwork (wallpapers or icons) for ubuntu. Who knows, who i could contact?09:51
wrathologyanyone know how to to install untrusted packages in the software ceneter09:51
Morgzssd is empty, no swap on ssd? i thought that'd be a given. so one primary partition, full size?09:51
Ben64Morgz: swap would kill an SSD quick09:51
wrathologyanyone know how to to install untrusted packages in the software ceneter09:51
montezumaafk now09:52
Morgzright. new tech for me, maybe i should read up a bit more, cheers09:52
red2kicpentesilea: Make your own wallpapers/icons. Release them on your own.09:52
Starminnwrathology: I guess just add the PPA or download the .deb yourself, 'eh?09:52
jhalared2kic: you mean when adapter is exposed to internet doesn't probablity to search it increase? hcitool scan displays nearest device09:52
Ben64jhala: please listen. mac addresses never ever ever ever ever ever get transmitted over the internet09:53
pentesileared2kic: why? Are there no other options?09:53
red2kicjhala: We're talking about Bluetooth?09:53
jhalared2kic:  is the bluetooth mac different from ethernet mac?09:53
Ben64yes09:53
Morgzben64 - so root on my ssd, i have two wd green's as ntfs... is that my only option for swap?09:53
Ben64Morgz: pretty much, yeah09:54
red2kicjhala: Ben64 is correct. It does not goes beyond local DHCP server.09:54
wrathologyanything in english Starminn09:54
Morgzif i bypass the swap now, can i reassign it later?09:54
Ben64yes09:54
Ben64Morgz: how much ram do you have09:54
Starminnwrathology: Meaning that was too much "tech speak" at once? :)09:54

wrathologyyes i'm very new09:55
Ben64wrathology: you have yet to explain your problem very well09:55
jhalared2kic:  if i search all ip's of routers in the city, and query for their mac then?09:55
Ben64Morgz: that should be fine without swap for normal use09:55
Starminnwrathology: Not a problem. Could you tell us/link us to what you're trying to download?09:55

Ben64Morgz: yeah you can09:56
red2kicjhala: I'm sorry you lost your netbook. I know it probably suck very much. If you have existing services that runs in background (such as Gmail, Dropbox, etc). You may get luck when that thief connected to the Internet. However, if you have screensaver password enabled or anything that may stop the thief, they may install a fresh new OS already.09:57

wrathologyhow do i get irc on ubuntu09:57

red2kicjhala: Right. This BT adapter you speak of -- The user could stop using it and plug it out.10:00
ZykoticK9jhala, and what chance to you have of ever seen the bluetooth MAC?  are you going to drive around scanning for it?10:00
Starminnwrathology: So ask your question. What is it that you wish to accomplish, and please, give us FULL details this time.10:01
jhalared2kic , Ben64: so you mean BT adapter has a different mac than ethernet or wifi adapter. all three are present in netbook10:01

ZykoticK9hyper_, it's technically possible to use the windows boot loader - but non-trivial in nature (it's not meant to boot Linux, where Grub is made to boot almost anything) you're making your live difficult and for what benefit?11:28

novitololoyes, before login11:28
Ben64novitololo: on the grub screen is where you'd choose a different runlevel11:29
hyper_Is there any other boot loader i can use?11:29
dag729novitolo: start the VM, when it begins to boot keep pressed SHIFT11:29

ZykoticK9Ben64, Grub backwards - it's a fancy boot manager or something...11:31
hyper_I was thinking about uninstalling ubuntu from partitions and then installing it using wubi as that would allow me to use windows boot loader? Is it a good option, or i shouldn't do it?11:32

Ben64[deXter]: i don't think telling him something that has a good chance of breaking bootup is helpful11:34

pr0tonhyper_, oh, so some static IP addres issue?11:39
s3r3n1t7Big_bear, welcome back. I'm not entirely sure about the HW requirements, but the NIC's would be the bottleneck. They would have to be able to keep up with the transfer rate.11:39

s3r3n1t7hyper_, you will have to setup a static IP in order to maintain a connection, windows adhoc doesn't give out a DHCP lease. Check the static ip on the windows wlan interface for the proper subnet11:41

hyper_It does11:43
hyper_it can connect to hotspots11:43
s3r3n1t7Big_bear, it's not really about the max transfer a day, more about what the transfer rate is at the peak hour. Say that you only use 50gb/day, but use those 50gb in less then half an hour then a simple 100mbit connection isn't going to work.11:44

hyper_Is there any way to do it11:51
s3r3n1t7Big_bear, what you have to do is install a dhcp server which will give out the dhcp leases to the 500 pc's,  then add ICS rules to your IPtables.11:51

Recommends letting the BIOS manage the fans. Suggests editing the GRUB file to insert  acpi_osi=\"Linux\ between the quotes in the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" . I can do that, I suppose. Sensible thing to do? Any big risk?14:54

Dr_Willis!debootstrap15:22
ubottudebootstrap is used to create a !Debian or Ubuntu base system from scratch, without requiring the availability of !dpkg or !APT. It does this by downloading !.deb files from a mirror site, and carefully unpacking them into a directory you can eventually !chroot into.  See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot for more information15:22

lucid_jAnd I unistalled it using it's jar unistaller16:23
sipiorRoasted: that will generate a different error, however.16:23
Roastedsipior, :(16:23
ikoniaRoasted: errr no, ntpdate is just a quick launch of ntp, so ntpdate can't run "ntp" whild ntp is running16:24
lucid_jIt had an option to force delete the installation directory16:24
ActionParsniplucid_j: use a SINGLE line, it makes it easier to work out as we don't have to piece together the fragments16:24

ActionParsnip!ppc | rajo16:25
ubotturajo: PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ16:25
ikoniaRoasted: you need to access on port 123, also domain (windows) controllers won't give out time to non-domain members normally16:25
PudaMY exact problem: After selecting any Ubuntu entry in GRUB I get this: Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (0,0)16:25
ActionParsniprajo: you need to find out the cpu it uses16:25
lucid_jA lot of apps are not working anymore and I am afraid to shutdown the PC16:25
ActionParsniplucid_j: use your backups16:25
Roastedsipior, yes, it is. however it's a windows server and it hands out time to our windows boxes on the domain. while I'm adding ubuntu to the mix here, ubuntu is still on our windows domain, so I would THINK it would still apply.16:26
rajomy cpu is 624 mhz i know only that16:26
Roastedikonia, I know. these boxes are added to our domain. I'm curious if ntp still transfers to them, though.16:26
lucid_jActionParsnip: I have not made any backup..16:26
ActionParsnipvalentin: have you used the catalyst control centre? if you press ALT+F2 and run:  metacity --replace      do they run better?16:26
Roastedikonia, because after all, we are mixing/matching platforms with linux/windows, etc.16:26
ikoniaRoasted: mine works fine16:26
ActionParsniplucid_j: whyever not? Drives can fail at any time....16:26
Roastedikonia, in regard to windows time server/domain + ubuntu boxes?16:26
ikoniaRoasted: well, server/domain + linux machine16:26
ActionParsniplucid_j: you have learned the value of backups the hardest way possible16:27
lucid_jThat's true16:27
Roastedikonia, that's good to know. at least I know that functionality exists.16:27
sipiorRoasted: you might try supplying the "-d" switch to ntpdate, see if it prints anything useful.16:27
ikoniaRoasted: it is more common though to have the windows machines syncing from a time source and pointing linux clients direct at that time source16:27
ikoniaas in the domain syncs from a time source, so do the linux machine, the windows clients sync from the domain16:27
valentinI am using Unity so I dont know if running metacity is even an option... but I CAN try16:27
ActionParsniplucid_j: all I can suggest is you boot to live cd and install foremost and scan the partition where the data was. You will need a partition mounted writable to spit the resultimg data to16:27
lucid_jActionParsnip: Is there any way to restore these folders? The trash can is empty..16:27
KindariHow can I find out the filesystem type of a partition? (not mounted)16:27
Roastedsipior, it only gave me 1 additional line. I still have no time servers, but above it, it said - 11 Apr 11:27:23 ntpdate[21434]: ntpdate 4.2.4p8@1.1612-o Sat Aug  7 00:36:25 UTC 2010 (1)16:28

UkeofJerseyGreets, all!  I have a GRUB2 question.  I was running out of room on a 10GB partition so I made a 20GB, cp -a the stuff over and I'm booted in the 'new' Ubuntu now.  I've already gone to this fstab and changed it to this install as well.  Trouble is, I don't know how to change anything in GRUB2.  The update gave me this distro as an option and all, but I want this to be the default and eventually erase the 'old' partition.  Any16:34
UkeofJerseyhelp?16:34
Roastedsipior, Do you know the difference between ntp and ntpd? I'm reading ntpd uses ntp.conf, NOT "ntp" itself. So now I'm confused over where exactly I should set my time server if ntpdate doesn't work with ntp.conf16:35
lucid_jActionParsnip: I want to undelete the folders of my /home/user directory not the whole partition16:35
dajhornreal_ate:  Check the /lost+found folder at the root of this filesystem.16:35
=== davidcalle_ is now known as davidcalle
arandsven_oostenbrink: Hmm I thought there would be a factoid for that, anyways, its a daemon, requiring some configuration, but it is the most popular one, for quick and simple usage vlc-nox or cvlc or something else like that might be a better choice.16:35
ikoniaRoasted: one is a server that sits running in the background managing clock drift16:35
ikoniantpdate is a manual command line tool where you set the server you want it to use as an argument16:35
real_atedajhorn: empty16:35
ActionParsniplucid_j: foremost will scan for file types, not locations16:36
Roastedikonia, if I run ntpdate with the IP of my time server, it says the socket is in use, exiting. From what I read, this is what I want to see. But I'm just a little confused between ntp vs ntpd vs ntp.conf and who uses it, etc.16:36
dajhornreal_ate: Okay, then this probably isn't a problem unless you have obviously filesystem corruption elsewhere.16:36
sipiorRoasted: you just want to use ntpdate to test if the thing works. once it does, set the appropriate host in ntp.conf.16:36
ikoniaRoasted: is ntpd running currently ?16:36
lucid_jActionParsnip: I installed recover but is for ext216:37
real_atedajhorn: well some files are defo missing... I have a svn folder that used to be fine before this but now "svn st" says that it is not a working copy16:37
Roastedikonia, service --status-all reveals ntp to be running, but ntpd isn't existent16:37
lucid_jActionParsnip: Now I am trying magic resque16:37
UkeofJerseyshould I be asking my GRUB2 question in another channel?16:37
ActionParsniplucid_j: all i can suggest is hunt around, foremost does a good job but its not perfect.16:37
ikoniaRoasted: don't use "service" check for the ntpd process16:37
yann97hello world16:37
ikoniaRoasted: there is no such command as "ntp"16:37
dajhornreal_ate: umount the filesystem and force an offline check.16:37
real_atedajhorn: but I was just trying to figure out what other files have been lost, there are 22 in total entries for  ext4_orphan_cleanup16:37
Roastedikonia, ntp is a service that's running on my box.16:38
lolmatichi to all chumps and chumpettes16:38
GreenNerdhello, lolmatic16:38
Roastedikonia, I'm not seeing ntpd under top...16:38
ikoniaRoasted: yes, but there is no such command as "ntp" so you will have something called "ntp" running, hence why I'm asking you to check for ntpd16:38
real_atedajhorn: but it has already checked and fixed the "problem" by deleting the inodes... i just want to figure out what inodes it has deleted16:38
ikoniaRoasted: top only shows the top user processes, check if it's running16:38

ActionParsniplucid_j: no its a command line app but the ubuntu doc I gave the link to shows how to use it, its not hard16:40
dajhornreal_ate: Deep voodoo.  First, take the system offline and make a 1-to-1 copy of the disk.  Second, you'll need to read about the e2fs progs.16:40
letasikonia, thanks let me look into it right now16:40

Roastedikonia, it's only 3 lines - can I PM them to you?16:42
ikoniaRoasted: sure16:42
dajhornreal_ate: This is not an easy fix.  Learning how to back out an inode problem will be hours of reading and learning.  Just restore from backup if you have a critical problem.16:42
sipiornonickperson: you could run it as a post-up stanza in /etc/network/interfaces, or simply use the "hwaddress" expression.16:42
ikoniaRoasted: ok, so that shows ntpd is running16:43
sipiornonickperson: generally, changing MAC addresses is poor practise (with some very limited exceptions)16:43
Roastedikonia, which, the 2nd line?16:43
ikoniaRoasted: that explains why the socket is already in use16:43
nonickpersonsipior, i tried that but it didnt work for me, i copied the maccaddress script into /ect/network/i pre.d whatever and that didnt work16:43
Roastedikonia, I was having a hard time reading that output.16:43
ikoniaRoasted: yes16:43
ikoniaRoasted: you need to stop the ntpd service16:43
nonickpersonand i added in interfaces auto wlan0 ifaces -e whatever .. no luck either16:43
real_atedajhorn: you see that is the problem... everything is working fine! I have only noticed 2 problems with the file system, i.e. stuff missing, and i'm worried about *where* the other 22 missing inodes are from16:43
Roastedikonia, is that done by sudo service ntpd stop?16:44
real_atedajhorn: i don't actually have a "critical probelm" i'm just "critically worried" ...16:44
ikoniaRoasted: sudo service ntp stop16:44
ikoniaRoasted: I believe the service is "ntp" but the daemon is ntpd16:44
dajhornreal_ate: Then you answered your question...  Restore the system from backup.16:44
Roastedikonia, ah, okay. I was jsut about to ask that. I guess that's why smb is smbd too.16:44
ikoniaRoasted: yes16:45

Roasted/etc/ntp.conf you refer to, right16:47
ikoniaRoasted: for ntpd - yes16:47
Roastedikonia, if ntp/ntpd have the same relationship as smb/smbd, why does samba list smbd in service --status-all and ntp is listed by ntp and not ntpd?16:48

YahudaHi, yesterday my computer couldn't manage to close properly. I pushed power button a few seconds and it did close. But today, after I started my computer a few errors occured. I think some of my disk drive damaged. Docky doesn't start for example. Is there any way to fix this?17:15
macoluist: would be like /dev/sd__17:15
Dr_WillisRealOpty:  ive never seen one command that just remvoes old kernels. I use the package manager.. or cheat and use some of the clean up tools17:15
vanguardActionParsnip: is there a gui?17:15
macoluist: sda = first disk, sdb = second disk... sda1 = first partitionon first disk, sda2 = second parition on first disk17:16
luistmaco, i suppose sdc then?17:16
ActionParsnipvanguard: doubt it but there are tonnes of ow-tos online17:16
Dr_Willisluist:  check out put of 'sudo fdisk -l' or check dmesg output  a few moments after plugging in the drive.17:16
macoluist: maybe?  sudo fdisk -l        would list them17:16
vanguardActionParsnip: kk17:16

KickedHello, does anyone know how I can update my gcc to the latest 4.6?18:11
Dr_WillisKicked:  via a PPA or source.18:11
i_is_brokeprome, well he walked you threw most of what i would of too, so im really not going to be able to help much. maybe someone else in here is able too. now in the post you didnt put a password in where it said too. but it is there right.18:11
Dr_Willis!latest18:11
ubottuPackages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa.18:11
macoKicked: by compiling it18:11
Kickedyeah, thought so and my horns are so green when it comes to building stuff :) guess i'll give it a go :)18:12
promeright i_is_broke18:12
macoKicked: keep in mind that if you change your default gcc to a new version, building kernel modules for the running kernel will fail (kernel & modules have to use same gcc version)18:12
i_is_brokeprome, well good luck then. hope it works out for you.18:12

MPXerUSUL:  Is there no other way then to copy all 1000 files to the same folder?19:19
erUSULMPX: find will traverse all files and folders beneath folder/19:19
mishaerUSUL: nevermind, I forgot to write esac. the problem wasn't because the while19:20
erUSULMPX: you have all the files under some common folder like Music? or some such ?19:20
erUSULubuntu: install it in the machine see how it goes?19:20
MPXerUSUL:  I have all the folders under the "Music" folder. There are about 300 different folders, with different subfolders named after the album.19:20
ileawho knows a good messenger aplication with file transfer suport and audio/video calling?19:21
kwtmmisha: It never is.  For example, if you forget the esac, then sh/bash doesn't know it's a problem until much further when it realizes it's not part of the case any more.  That's why when you keep saying "the problem is on line 140" ... well, it isn't.19:21
erUSULMPX: then this should work « find Music/ -type f ! -name '*.mp3' -execdir prename 's/$/\.mp3/' {} + »19:21
damnoilea: empathy. the one that comes installed.19:21
ohsixderp19:22
kwtmMPX: what erUSUL said.  But you may want to try inserting the word "echo" after -execdir and before prename, to see what WOULD happen if you run that.19:22
erUSULMPX: again; try first the command in a copy of one of the folders19:22
ileaok thanks i have kiwi linux and pidgin was the default19:22
MPXerUSUL:  Sorry, the command ran but did not change any extensions. :(19:22
kwtmerUSUL: Nice use of chevrons to delimit the command. :)19:22
erUSULMPX: also keep in mind that if you have other files like covers ( *.jpg ) etc... they will be renamed too19:22

thevishythanks19:23
MPXerUSUL:  I just have music in that folder, no cover art. The command did not change the extensions however19:23
kwtmthevishy: In fact, if PART of the file is already copied, rsync knows to copy just the PART of the file that it needs.19:23

jessicaBRhello all, I have an Asus laptop and have installed Windows 7 and Ubuntu Maverick. I would like to ask you if you have experienced some crashes with ubuntu. Also, when I reboot to windows after using ubuntu, I get bluescreen while booting to windows...20:02
BluesKajNerwenGreen, you obviously partitioned the drive already so install ubuntu on ext4  , if you have more than 4G ram then a swap is probly not needed20:02
j_?20:03
ubuntujessicaBR, did you run defrag in windows before you repartitioned20:03
zimHi all. Trying to setup a raid 1 with 2 x 2TB using the full 2TB in one partition. ext4 btw20:03

LjLi'd like to hear whatever is coming into the microphone / line-in of my EeePC 901 in the speakers, but i can't quite find out how to do that in Maverick... (maybe it's just not possible with the EeePC's soundcard, i'm not sure)23:22
cybrhumanXylch: my hack is to mirror the screens, or if it is youtube we are talking about I got a script for dl-ing the video directly and play it in mplayer23:23
meganerdSeven_Six_Two: I have seen that more than a few times, even on machines that have never had linux touch them (until I booted a recovery disk of course).  There are a few things to try but none of them are linux based23:23
meganerdLjL: I don't know of an easy way to do this, unless you consider jackd to be easy :)23:24
LjLmeganerd: uhm but is it just something with Maverick, or does the EeePC's soundcard simply not have that ability? (all the soundcards i've had did)23:24
meganerdit depends on how you were doing it.23:25
jsimmonsHi, my laptops (hp pavillion dm1z) wifi adaptor isn't working for some reason, anybody lend a quick hand getting it to work?23:25
LjLmeganerd: going to the mixer, and clicking on the "unmute" or green or whatever button for the microphone, mostly :)23:25

aarHello, does anyone have a recommendation for a wireless card that will work out of the box on an Ubuntu Lucid AMD64 box?23:27
Seven_Six_TwoMK`, can you switch to a tty  (alt+ctrl+F1) and issue    showkey        then push the key you need to work...then wait 10 seconds for it to exit23:28
meganerdaar: the intel ones work great23:28
LjLmeganerd: right, but i'm saying, even with a mixer (at least alsamixer), i don't get the option i usually got with all my other soundcards23:28
xnoxI want to rip CD into m4a (AAC) using Banshee. The audio cd source have flac,mp3,wav,ogg options available for me, but not m4a. Rhythmbox on the other hand does have it and it works there. I have faac and -multiverse gstreamer installed. How do I "active" m4a import in Banshee?23:28
Seven_Six_TwoMK`, taking note of any output for the key23:28
aarmeganerd, sny intel card?23:28
aar(any)23:28

cybrhumanXylch: http://rg3.github.com/youtube-dl/23:29

meganerdLjL: I know with jack you can route any signal from just about anywhere to just about anywhere, but that is sort of like fishing with dynamite.23:30
aarmeganerd, did you need ndiswrsapper?23:30
meganerdaar: no.  ndiswrapper is evil23:30
meganerdaar: atheros is pretty good23:30

jsimmons_how do I find out exactly which network adaptor I have?23:31
kelbekthe usb stick is not mounted automatically23:31
LjLmeganerd: yeah i'd rather avoid having to do that, though i may resort to it if there's no other option23:31

meganerdLjL: Once I got hooked on jack I see all problems as having jack as the solution :)23:32
cybrhumanXylch: I had a small script which automatically fed mplayer the file... which is damn neat.23:32
cybrhumanXylch: can't be that hard to make anyway.23:32
LjLmeganerd: well i'll probably have to deal with JACK at some point anyway since i might end up connecting various programs' audio inputs and outputs together23:32
kelbekSeven_Six_Two i can not get mounting the stick23:33
jsimmons_are there packages somewhere for ralink wireless cards?23:33

kelbekSeven_Six_Two: i try to mount with mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt/23:33
kelbekSeven_Six_Two: but it doesnt work23:34
Seven_Six_Twokelbek, you need sudo to mount it manually, unless it's specified in mtab that you can. You also need to create a directory inside /mnt where it will mount to. It won't create a directory for you23:35
