[00:09] <anonymity> i don't about dual booting. Sorry
[00:09] <sp00f3r> =(
[00:09] <rednammoc> sp00f3r: maybe supergrub (a tool) can help you
[00:09] <shcherbak> anonymity: If for Ubuntu, that would be gtk theme, where are you fishing?
[00:09] <xvmplock> sp00f3r whats the matter?
[00:09] <anonymity> Think you would need two ro three partitions with the OSs installed
[00:09] <anonymity> gnome-look.org
[00:10] <phibxr> sp00f3r, what operating system are you trying to dual boot ubuntu with, and what is the result when you attempt to do it?
[00:10] <anonymity> dont know how to pm yet. Sorry for the inconvienence
[00:10] <hypetech> anonymity: you do "/msg username text goes here"
[00:10] <shcherbak> anonymity: gtk themes, and just drag to Apperance window.
[00:11] <sp00f3r> im getting help already
[00:11] <rednammoc> the "overwrite file"-dialog lacks some information like the modified-date, author, ... things that differs between the files. Is there any way to add such information? Configuration, tool, etc. ?
[00:11] <sp00f3r> thanks guys for your help
[00:11] <sp00f3r> =)
[00:11] <anonymity> Thanks for the information hypertech

[00:14] <gNewPower> Hi. my son just overused his buntu box and now his / is 100% full. gdm does not work.  I have only CLI access to the box.  How can I best make some space?
[00:14] <prog> ActionParsnip, any idea?
[00:14] <rww> gNewPower: "sudo apt-get clean" would remove downloaded update packages, and usually helps
[00:14] <gNewPower> thanks rww
[00:14] <gNewPower> I will try that and come back in 1min
[00:14] <rednammoc> gNewPower: use the installation-cd to boot it live
[00:15] <rednammoc> gNewPower: after that you can use the disk-usage-analyzer
[00:15] <gNewPower> rww, apt-get clean gave me 4% back. super thanks!!
[00:16] <gNewPower> rednammoc, I will do that right now
[00:16] <gNewPower> thanks guys - you rock!!
[00:16] <rednammoc> the "overwrite file"-dialog lacks some information like the modified-date, author, ... things that differs between the files. Is there any way to add such information? Configuration, tool, etc. ?
[00:17] <Rehan> I'm trying to change the icon in my top panel that sets whether I'm available/busy/away/etc. I downloaded an empathy theme but after installing it via System-Prefs-Appearance it does not seem to work. Could anyone help?
[00:17] <Macer> resilver is almost done. i still havent been able to mount my old zpools from oi to ubuntu and dont know why
[00:17] <carson_> Hi
[00:17] <Macer> it sees them.. i would figure zfs mount -a should do it
[00:18] <xvmplock> hi carson
[00:18] <Macer> i sure am hoping it is because of the degraded state :) anybody else run into this problem?
[00:19] <carson_> how are you guys liking ubuntu 11.04?
[00:19] <kosei> yo
[00:19] <YankDownUnder> 11.04 makes me appreciate 10.10 all the more.
[00:19] <mickster04> !11.04
[00:19] <dios_mio> !final
[00:20] <sp00f3r> It worked!!!
[00:20] <sp00f3r> i can dual boot now
[00:20] <sp00f3r> =)
[00:20] <eegerda> congrats
[00:20] <sp00f3r> thanks
[00:20] <sp00f3r> and thanks to KM0201
[00:20] <YankDownUnder> Now ya have to work on quad-booting
[00:20] <Macer> haha
[00:20] <sp00f3r> hahahaha
[00:21] <Macer> octboot
[00:21] <Macer> sp00f3r: virtual machines are nice too ;)
[00:21] <eegerda> virtual machines are great
[00:21] <sp00f3r> @macer
[00:21] <Macer> you take a slight performance hit but nothing too bad
[00:21] <YankDownUnder> Boot: Ubuntu, MS, OS/2, MacOSX, BeOS & FreeBSD....that would be a challenge...
[00:21] <xvmplock> sorry i missed that how did you fix that?
[00:21] <xvmplock> sp00f3r
[00:22] <eegerda> I stopped dual booting years ago, I used virtual machines
[00:22] <sp00f3r> yup but i wanna switch to ubuntu for my default OS and leave windows for when I need to use photoshop and after effects
[00:22] <sp00f3r> =)
[00:22] <YankDownUnder> sp00f3r, Um...you can run Photoshop and Aftereffects via Crossover Office
[00:22] <eegerda> photoshop may not run to smooth on a VM, so I guess that's a good idea
[00:23] <sp00f3r> oh well, thats a more advanced technique i guess?
[00:23] <xvmplock> yankdownunder can you talk more about tat?
[00:23] <YankDownUnder> I run CS3 and Photoshop 7 happily and natively using Crossover...
[00:23] <sp00f3r> i tried WINE
[00:23] <xvmplock> that*
[00:23] <sp00f3r> but =S
[00:23] <eegerda> is crossover free?
[00:24] <raido> YankDownUnder: On http://www.justlinux.com/ there us a member named saikee who has very well documented multi boot of many OSs, I think He has done lik over 100 on a single machine. His docs are the best on the subject.
[00:24] <YankDownUnder> Crossover Office & Crossover Games for linux: http://www.codeweavers.com => no, it ain't free, but saves ya heaps of headaches
[00:24] <hiexpo> thats why we have blender and gimp here in linux and they don't cost thousands of dollars and my used blender to build nasa 3d thing so it must be ok
[00:24] <carson_> I HATE WINDOWS!
[00:24] <MikeC> gots a question, is 11.04 (plus updates) decently working fine (even for beta) to install so can see what next version is?  and what ver gnome/kde is it setup with?  (thinking of trying it out as a fedora user (currently beta testing) so might try the live cd of it
[00:25] <YankDownUnder> raido, I honestly run nothing other than linux - unless you want to count OSX, but that's on a laptop that ain't being used, really.
[00:25] <Macer> ok a little confused
[00:25] <Macer> why isnt my imported zpool mounting its zfs?
[00:25] <Rehan> I'm trying to change the icon in my top panel that sets whether I'm available/busy/away/etc. I downloaded an empathy theme but after installing it via System-Prefs-Appearance it does not seem to work. Could anyone help?
[00:25] <Macer> i can see it... they are there.. but zfs mount doesnt work
[00:25] <NickUK`> Hi#
[00:26] <sp00f3r> i like ubuntu, but until i really learn more about, im forced to keep using windows when i need it
[00:26] <MikeC> hrmmm, I can see now too if I decide to switch that I have a whole new dir structure to learn and download, heh
[00:26] <mickster04> for crossover see also : playonlinux
[00:26] <NickUK`> I'm currently having an issue in Ubuntu 11.04 where I cannot get my wireless to work and cannot install firmware-b43-installer. I'm currently getting the error Errors were encountered while processing: apport apport-gtk E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[00:26] <sec_goat> ikonia: are you still around?
[00:26] <Flannel> NickUK`: #ubuntu+1 for 11.04 questions, thanks.
[00:27] <MikeC> what channel ...n/m flannel just answered lol
[00:27] <KM0201> sp00f3r, thats smart.. if you nuked windows at this point, you'd be reinstalling it by thursday.. dual boot while you're new.. you're taking the right approach
[00:28] <PolarPanda> KM0201: We all know Windows will kill anything prodictive you do on Linux...
[00:28] <KM0201> PolarPanda, not really sure i agree w/ that, but ok.
[00:29] <hiexpo> yah just kepp thinking that
[00:29] <sec_goat> any one around have experience setting up a software raid after install ala http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=454116
[00:29] <sec_goat> ?
[00:29] <Rehan> What's "dependency is not satisfiable: libnice10 (>=0.1.0)" mean when I'm trying to install something?
[00:30] <hiexpo> Rehan, what you trying to compile
[00:30] <smw> Rehan, it means it can not install that package and that packages is needed for something.
[00:30] <Rehan> hiexpo: smw, I'm trying to install this fix for empathy that will let me set my gtalk to invisible. http://is.gd/cRotNc
[00:31] <huddy> hi. im using IP tables to limit the amount of connections to a port, like "-A OUTPUT -p tcp -s 81.x.x.x --syn --dport 6xxx -m connlimit --connlimit-above 3 -j REJECT". I'm a little worried that on connections that time out, this would still count as a connection, is there a way to make connections close quicker if it has timed out.
[00:31] <huddy> if im making sense that is.
[00:32] <hiexpo> Rehan, whats the first thing it tells you on that page
[00:33] <Rehan> hiexpo: to install one of the 3 deb files
[00:35] <hiexpo> Rehan, ok which one you get ?
[00:35] <Rehan> hiexpo: i downloaded 3 of the 6 because there's 3 64bit versions.
[00:36] <Rehan> hiexpo: i'm assuming they're dependencies or something
[00:37] <Rehan> hiexpo: it let me install 1 of the 3 packages. The other two i get errors on. When I tried to install libsqlite it said "dependency is not satisfiable: multi-arch support"
[00:38] <hiexpo> hmm
[00:39] <karela9> got a problem? when I type "sudo service sshd start" then it's the err>>> sshd: unrecognized service          what i have to do?
[00:39] <shcherbak> karela9: ssh not sshd
[00:39] <Pici> karela9: its ssh, not 'sshd'
[00:39] <hiexpo> Rehan, have you tried it since you installed the one deb?
[00:40] <Rehan> hiexpo: yep
[00:40] <Macer> ok im at a loss
[00:40] <Macer> can someone tell me why my old oi zfs will not mount?
[00:40] <MikeC> what cli programs does unbuntu use for editing files?  I use nano in fedora (or old pico), does it have it as well?
[00:40] <Macer> i can see the zpool and it is imported.. i can see the zfs datasets.. but they wont mount
[00:40] <karela9> we have no command line named "sshd"?
[00:41] <Rehan> MikeC: yeah ubuntu has nano
[00:41] <MikeC> hrm...kk
[00:41] <shcherbak> karela9: First instal openssh-server, and sudo service ssh start
[00:41] <mickster04> karela9: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[00:41] <Rehan> hiexpo: any other ideas?
[00:41] <hiexpo> Rehan, well sorry i am at a loss i am not familiar with 11.04 but try that channel
[00:41] <Rehan> hiexpo: i'm on 10.10
[00:41] <mickster04> karela9: services maybe?
[00:42] <mickster04> !tab | karela9:
[00:42] <hiexpo> well theres your problem Rehan those packages are for natty
[00:43] <Rehan> hiexpo: and they can't be installed on 10.10 at all?
[00:43] <karela9> shcherbak: sudo apt-get install openssh-service >>>>>> Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree        Reading state information... Done
[00:43] <hiexpo> Rehan, no thats why you getting errors
[00:43] <Rehan> hiexpo: can i install the other dependencies somehow?
[00:43] <karela9> shcherbak: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree        Reading state information... Done
[00:44] <mickster04> !paste | karela9
[00:44] <hiexpo> Rehan, i would not
[00:44] <Rehan> hiexpo: it doesn't state that they're for natty only, i know it has it in the path, but I'm not sure if that means its only for that version
[00:44] <karela9> shcherbak: Unable to locate package openssh-service
[00:44] <mickster04> karela9: server
[00:44] <mickster04> karela9: use tab complete
[00:44] <paw> cant access or boot my windows ntfs partition :(
[00:44] <hiexpo> Rehan, it states it in the file path clearly natty
[00:44] <mickster04> paw: error messages?
[00:44] <shcherbak> karela9: Literal: sudo apt-get install openssh-server && sudo service ssh start && sudo netstat -tulp (to see it up & running)
[00:45] <paw> input/output error
[00:45] <paw> mickster04: NTFS is either inconsistent or there is a hardware fault.
[00:45] <karela9> mickster04: openssh-server is already the newest version.
[00:45] <hiexpo> why you don't use pidgin Rehan
[00:45] <karela9> mickster04: so what i have to do now?
[00:46] <Rehan> hiexpo: does pidgin integrate as nicely into the ubuntu panel?
[00:46] <fborges22> hello?
[00:46] <shcherbak> karela9: sudo netstat -tulp (you should see server running)
[00:46] <hiexpo> Rehan, what you mean
[00:46] <mickster04> karela9: sudo servic<tab> ssh<tab> restart
[00:47] <paw> mickster04: Error mounting: mount exited with code 13: ntfs_mapping_pairs:decompress() failed: input/output error
[00:47] <Rehan> hiexpo: how right now i can go to the top-right panel where my username is and choose "away" or "invisible" and it marks the same in empathy
[00:47] <hiexpo> Rehan, yes
[00:47] <mickster04> paw and when you try to boot into it?
[00:47] <asmodeus87> Rehan: It does
[00:47] <paw> is there some sort of recovery tool for Ubuntu, so I can mount my ntfs partition.
[00:47] <mickster04> !recover
[00:48] <paw> mickster04: It shows the win logo while loading drivers, then crashes with a blue screen, but too fast to read It.
[00:48] <mickster04> paw: insert your windows disk and run the recovery option
[00:48] <asmodeus87> Rehan: It doesn't allow you to choose customs statuses though, which Pidgin allows
[00:48] <hiexpo> Rehan, pidgen much nicer i think
[00:48] <paw> mickster04: Ubuntu can see there is a ntfs partition. but cant mount It
[00:48] <mickster04> !ntfs
[00:48] <karela9> mickster04: sudo service ssh restart >>>> ssh start/running, process 3963  ????? i think everything is ok ? isn't it?
[00:48] <asmodeus87> hiexpo: big time
[00:49] <mickster04> karela9: yep
[00:49] <shcherbak> karela9: yes
[00:49] <paw> mickster04: aah.. thanks. have the disk here. will try :)
[00:49] <paw> mickster04: hmm. will I ruin the grub then ?
[00:49] <rreyes> Hi all... question: why I can't cd to this directory if I am part of adm group: drwxr-x---  2 tomcat6 adm     4096 Apr 25 18:51 tomcat6?
[00:49] <paw> mickster04: should I make a boot disk on usb first for Ubuntu ?
[00:50] <karela9> mickster04:  now my personal computer is able to give other users to have a SSH access to my pc if i want?
[00:50] <mickster04> karela9: yes
[00:50] <karela9> so would you tell me how? is it possible to do it just now with my computer? same computer?
[00:51] <mickster04> paw: uhm i don't know. i don't know how your partitions/installs are set up
[00:51] <Rehan> asmodeus87, hiexpo: how can I set it so when I click on the envelope icon on my gnome panel, where it says "Chat" it opens pidgin instead of empathy? thx
[00:51] <karela9> mickster04: so would you tell me how? is it possible to do it just now with my computer? same computer?
[00:51] <mickster04> karela9: ssh <computer name or ip address here>
[00:51] <paw> mickster04: no Wubi. 10.10 alongside win7
[00:51] <mickster04> paw: oh
[00:51] <mickster04> paw: well then you don't mount the hdd
[00:51] <hiexpo> Rehan, you neeed to install pidgen and remove empathy
[00:51] <mickster04> paw: you are running from that partition, so it can't mount it
[00:51] <mickster04> paw: look in /host
[00:52] <paw> okay
[00:52] <Walzmyn> How would one go about requesting a change in a packages dependencies?
[00:52] <mickster04> paw: you should have told us this ages ago
[00:52] <Rehan> hiexpo: i did install pidgin, ok so now just remove empathy and it will take over? Because right now pidgin is showing up in that envelope area but as its own separate title, not just under Chat
[00:52] <mickster04> Walzmyn: ask nicely
[00:52] <mickster04> ?
[00:52] <Walzmyn> mickster04: who and where?
[00:52] <mickster04> Walzmyn: sorry i was being sarcastic :)
[00:52] <shcherbak> rreyes: Check: groups <user name>, also parent directory counts.
[00:52] <Walzmyn> mickster04: oh
[00:53] <paw> mickster04: im not running Wubi. installed Ubuntu from DVD alongside windows.
[00:53] <rreyes> shcherbak: admin : admin root adm
[00:53] <mickster04> paw -_- make up your mind
[00:53] <hiexpo> Rehan, it will show up in the envelope as pidgen instant messanger you just click it to start
[00:53] <mickster04> paw: so how are the partitions set up?
[00:54] <Rehan> hiexpo: ok how do i make it so that when I click on Chat it shows up and doesn't show up as "Pidgin instant messenger" ?
[00:54] <asmodeus87> hiexpo: Thanks that's good to know, I'll remove the thing myself as well
[00:55] <hiexpo> Rehan, remove empathy first
[00:55] <paw> mickster04: ntfs, ext4, and swap. NTFS configuration tools says /dev/sda1 /media/System_Reserved. and /dev/sda2 <enter a mount point>
[00:55] <Rehan> hiexpo: i did
[00:55] <karela9> mickster04: thanks dude! now i've got a ssh access to my pc
[00:55] <paw> mickster04: when trying to mount I get a long message in a popup
[00:55] <karela9> thank you guys for hellp ing mee!
[00:55] <mickster04> !paste | paw
[00:56] <mickster04> paw: i'm off for lunch, keep asking around
[00:56] <Bing0> Is there a natty channel or can I post questions here?  Thanks.
[00:56] <paw> mickster04: thanks :) and damn Win7
[00:56] <genii-around> !natty
[00:56] <hiexpo> ok you will have to reboot i think to clear it up than you will have that mail like envelope and you click it and it will have pidgen it it
[00:57] <Bing0> thanks genii-around
[00:57] <Rehan> hiexpo: i already have pidgin in the mail like envelope, the question I have is, how can I have it so that inside the mail envelope I can simply click on "Chat" for pidgin rather than having pidgin as a separate entry
[00:57] <genii-around> Bing0: You're welcome
[00:57] <MikeC> before end up booting up with the cd does ubuntu have any auto configuration type tools like setting nfs mounts and stuff like that?
[00:58] <hiexpo> what was the chat thing i think that was empathys thing it will be gone when you reboot  Rehan
[00:58] <landingonwater> http://imagebin.org/150118
[00:58] <Rehan> hiexpo: ok
[00:58] <landingonwater> this is the error i get when trying to mount my win7 partition.
[00:59] <landingonwater> win7 wont boot. loads some driver, then a quick blue screen, and reboots.
[00:59] <terry> MikeC: I don't think there is any type of gui tool for setting up nfs mounts, you pretty much have to do that on your own.
[00:59] <landingonwater> mickster04: http://imagebin.org/150118
[01:00] <MikeC> terry:  cool, np doing it, just checking as used to fedora
[01:00] <terry> !nfs | MikeC
[01:00] <landingonwater> I used to be really bored. then I started using Windows
[01:01] <MikeC> already there
[01:01] <ddoman> How can I check if any of boot-up service has got failed to start or not?
[01:01] <landingonwater> do any know of a tool so i can gain acces to my win7 partition ?
[01:01] <landingonwater> http://imagebin.org/150118
[01:01] <patrunjel> I have installed starcraft (brood war) and it's extremely laggy, and I think it's because Wine, or something... can someone please help me configure wine so that starcraft will run a little faster? :)
[01:01] <terry> ddoman: dmesg
[01:01] <iceroot> landingonwater: mount
[01:02] <landingonwater> iceroot: mount ?
[01:02] <hiexpo> !wine | patrunjel
[01:02] <iceroot> landingonwater: the tool to acces a win-partition is called mount
[01:02] <ddoman> terry: doesn't it display only kernel messages? I wanna check if any *application* service has got failed or not
[01:02] <landingonwater> iceroot: will install it
[01:02] <hiexpo> patrunjel, #wine
[01:02] <Deckard3> !banshee
[01:02] <MikeC> ddoman:  does service service-name status work?
[01:02] <iceroot> landingonwater: its installed by default
[01:02] <patrunjel> hiexpo, I don't really know what to do and what to modify... or how to make windows-native games work a little faster on linux... :)
[01:03] <iceroot> landingonwater: mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdX /where/to/mount
[01:03] <iceroot> landingonwater: sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdX /where/to/mount
[01:03] <hiexpo> patrunjel, go to channel #winehq and ask they can help you better
[01:04] <iceroot> ddoman: grep -i fail /var/log/syslog   maybe
[01:04] <ven30c> hello! i just let a friend of mine to come to my computer (ssh) but how can i find his log on my computer? where is his log file?
[01:05] <iceroot> ven30c: su - username; history
[01:05] <iceroot> ven30c: i would use
[01:05] <terry> ddoman: service --status-all
[01:06] <iceroot> ven30c: or just less /home/username/.bash_history
[01:06] <ven30c> iceroot: what last and lastb are about? what about these command lines?
[01:06] <Deckard3> is a sure Banshee will be the media player for now on?
[01:06] <iceroot> ven30c: man last, its just the last logged in users
[01:07] <terry> ddoman: service --status-all | less
[01:07] <iceroot> Deckard3: yes, but you can install what you want
[01:08] <terry> ddoman: and /service-name   to search for the service.
[01:08] <ddoman> terry, that's what I wanted. Thx sooooooo much
[01:08] <MikeC> coors light and french bread pizza for dinner, booyahhh!! :P
[01:08] <blizzaaard> -:)
[01:09] <terry> MikeC: Sounds good, be right over.
[01:09] <MikeC> haha
[01:09] <MikeC> plenty of both, c'mon lol
[01:09] <Deckard3> yes i do install the old rhytmbox , even with a clean install is not stable, i wander know if happens with you too
[01:09] <swim> howdy folks..  i'm using ubuntu 10.10 with an xfce interface..  i've only been using one panel and for some unknown reason it has disappeared..  i can't find any managers that will allow me to restore or create a new panel
[01:09] <ven30c> iceroot:  i wanna know for example if you ssh my pc and logged out .. then i would be able to see what did you do and where did you go on my pc? is there any log file like that?
[01:09] <MikeC> welp, natty beta 2 burned to cd, time to boot up the live part and play for a few
[01:10] <iceroot> ven30c: last and history
[01:10] <geoland> Does upgrading by update manager remove non-standard programs - will I loose any part of my installation other than non-standard stuff - how about GIMP which I cant find in the live version package repository?
[01:10] <leapy0yo> how can i program my machine so that sabnzbd does not start at boot, for ubuntu?
[01:10] <phibxr> swim, there are probably more graceful solutions, but in those cases I just move my /home/user to /home/userbackup and create a new /home/user-folder and move over the important stuff. :P
[01:11] <iceroot> geoland: depening on the packages, some maybe removed but for sure not gimp. updater-manager will tell you what programs will be removed.
[01:11] <swim> phibxr i'd have to use an external to back that sucker up..  what's that have to do with my panel???
[01:11] <iceroot> geoland: also gimp is in the online-repos the live-cd is using
[01:12] <geoland> Thank you - much appreciated.
[01:12] <phibxr> swim, that would give you the default settings back again, but yes, it's lazy and likely overkill for the purpose. :P
[01:13] <swim> hmm....  so it's a matter of getting back to the default settings???
[01:14] <swim> phibxr is there just a way to create a new panel???  i've been trying to find a drill down that will get me to those settings, but i can't seem to find it in xfce...
[01:14] <obrien> hi there
[01:14] <terry> leapy0yo: edit /etc/default/sabnzbdplus
[01:14] <phibxr> swim, if you have no panels, that should solve it. but there are probably easier ways.
[01:16] <obrien> hey! how ti create an installatin disk with updates and pakages i have downloads
[01:16] <ActionParsnip> obrien: use aptoncd
[01:16] <ven30c> iceroot: ok. i used last and history but it doesn't show that my friend for example went to this directory /home/downloads/ ?? "last" just said  that that IP came to your computer at 4:23 (date and time) and history said which command lines just run?
[01:16] <iceroot> !remaster | obrien
[01:16] <ven30c> iceroot: but no shown directory?
[01:16] <iceroot> ven30c: correct
[01:17] <iceroot> ven30c: but think of a user can fake is history
[01:17] <iceroot> his
[01:17] <obrien> i try it but its likely not bootable
[01:17] <ven30c> iceroot:  so it's not possible to see the directories that my friend just went throught?
[01:18] <iceroot> ven30c: if he faked is ~/.bash_history np
[01:18] <iceroot> no
[01:19] <ven30c> iceroot: isn't there any log file in var/log/?? to see that?
[01:19] <phibxr> ven30c, your safest bet is likely to call him and state "the flash of light you did not see did not erase your memory".
[01:19] <iceroot> ven30c: luckily not
[01:19] <iceroot> ven30c: also there is no need because there is the bash_history
[01:20] <iceroot> ven30c: doesnt matter if it is stored in /var/log/ or ~
[01:20] <undecim> Is there a way to make dd ignore I/O errors?
[01:20] <ven30c> iceroot: as you said to view bash_history  ihave to type history ? am i right?
[01:21] <sveinse> How can I find which app is blocking /dev/loop0? I'm trying to losetup -d /dev/loop0 but I'm getting "device or resource busy". losetup -a lists a path to within /tmp. lsof however does not reveal any processes against these paths
[01:21] <iceroot> undecim: man dd says "noerror"

[01:24] <sparrW> I seem to be stuck with Gnash as my flash player in Firefox on Ubuntu 10.10, even though I have adobe-flashplugin installed. Help?
[01:24] <swim> phibxr fyi..  just for future reference, xfce4-panel & disown %xfce4-panel  restarts the panel and disowns it so that when you close the terminal it doesn't kill the panel process as well..
[01:24] <ven30c> iceroot: ok if i want to download ? is this the same command line?
[01:25] <iceroot> ven30c: scp user@host:/path/to/file/ /path/on/your/local/machine/
[01:25] <undecim> iceroot: Yeah... I was searching for "I/O error"
[01:25] <iceroot> undecim: i was searching for error :)

[01:27] <bz> alguien que hable español?
[01:27] <viper474> sparrW, not sure what to tell you now, but...
[01:27] <obrien> i like to use c++ compiler but i don't see it help please
[01:27] <viper474> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[01:27] <maroccain> bilalo: /part #ubuntu
[01:27] <iceroot> !spain | bz
[01:27] <viper474> does wonders for new installs
[01:27] <bz> entendido
[01:27] <bz> gracias
[01:27] <ActionParsnip> obrien: do you have build-essential installed?
[01:27] <ven30c> iceroot: thank you friend! now i
[01:28] <ven30c> iceroot: now I've got everything!
[01:28] <sparrW> viper474: I'll do that, for unrelated reasons, but i already have the adobe flash plugin installed
[01:29] <obrien> no
[01:29] <viper474> sparrW: Are you using Firefox?
[01:29] <ActionParsnip> sparrW: can you use http://pastebin.com to give the output of: uname -a; lsb_release -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf
[01:30] <obrien> no
[01:31] <sparrW> viper474: yes
[01:31] <ActionParsnip> obrien: then install it and you will have an ANSI standard c++ compiler
[01:31] <viper474> sparrW: maybe you could look at the add-ons and try disabling the other one, then restart firefox
[01:32] <sparrW> viper474: i have, it just stays there disabled
[01:32] <sparrW> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/dqrNGCD9
[01:32] <pooltable> help how to installed LibO_3.3.2rc2_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US ???
[01:32] <ActionParsnip> sparrW: you have too many plugins installed, thats why
[01:33] <sparrW> i agree
[01:33] <sparrW> i don't want gnash (today, anyway)
[01:33] <ActionParsnip> sparrW: this will sort you out: sudo apt-get --purge remove adobe-flashplugin browser-plugin-gnash gnash gnash-common mozilla-plugin-gnash; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y install flashplugin-nonfree
[01:34] <ActionParsnip> sparrW: if you have more than one the conflict and you get nothing
[01:34] <ActionParsnip> sparrW: that command will remove all the flash plugins then install the adobe flash plugin for you
[01:34] <obrien> thanks nice time
[01:34] <sparrW> ActionParsnip: i was hoping i wouldn't have to do that. thanks
[01:35] <Planetary> is there a problem with wine. I did an update last night and now my windows program is not loading right. the window box is empty or not displaying the program. i did a reinstall to no avail
[01:35] <ActionParsnip> sparrW: do what?
[01:35] <viper474> sparrW, other than the download time, it should fix you up
[01:35] <sparrW> ActionParsnip: remove the other plugins
[01:35] <sparrW> viper474: heh, on 100Mbit, meh @ download time :)
[01:35] <ActionParsnip> sparrW: they will conflict with any efforts you undertake
[01:36] <ActionParsnip> Planetary: have you asked in #winehq
[01:36] <ActionParsnip> Planetary: ou could try the wine ppa for wine 1.3
[01:36] <Planetary> wine ppa? ill check the chat
[01:38] <gogearvibe4g> How would i set up a remote desktop?
[01:38] <ActionParsnip> gogearvibe4g: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/share-your-ubuntu-desktop-using-remote-desktop.html
[01:41] <bob__> 11.04 sees my usb linux formatted drive but 10.04 doesn't what's up?
[01:41] <ActionParsnip> bob__: different kernel
[01:42] <night98> rver
[01:42] <bob__> solved that so I'm looking at upgrading
[01:44] <abahkaiyisah> how to play VCD on kubuntu
[01:44] <mickster04> abahkaiyisah: have you tried vlc?
[01:44] <KM0201> abahkaiyisah, well, if you haven't ugpraded VLC yet, (as the upgrade is seriously broken..) VLC should play them
[01:44] <KareemK> is there a way to upgrade from lucid to natty (jumping maverick) from update-manager?
[01:44] <KM0201> KareemK, not a supported way
[01:45] <mickster04> KM0201: download and install from disk?
[01:45] <KM0201> mickster04, download and install what from disk?
[01:45] <mickster04> KareemK: download and install from disk?
[01:45] <mickster04> KM0201: you snuck in there on the tab complete
[01:45] <KareemK> i don't have a natty disk
[01:45] <KM0201> oh ok.. :)
[01:45] <ActionParsnip> KareemK: missing a release in upgrades is not supported or advised
[01:45] <KM0201> mickster04, and regardless, that wouldn't really be an upgrade, you'd h ave ot clean install w/ the natty disk.. ;)
[01:46] <abahkaiyisah> mickster04: yes i use vlc and already install from software manager. but when i play the disc vlc show nothing for long time
[01:46] <KareemK> ok i have a maverick disk... can i use it to make the upgrade to maverick less bandwidth-costly?
[01:46] <ActionParsnip> abahkaiyisah: have you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras
[01:46] <abahkaiyisah> ActionParsnip : yes i've done
[01:46] <ActionParsnip> abahkaiyisah: you may also benefit from w32codecs from medibuntu's repo (I assume 32bit OS)
[01:47] <KareemK> i think you can add a cd as a repo right?
[01:47] <ActionParsnip> abahkaiyisah: installing gnome-mplayer will also pull in some other tasty codecs you can use
[01:47] <ActionParsnip> KareemK: the alternate iso/cd, yes
[01:47] <ntiy> hi all. I have someones code that I am trying to compile. in a makefile there is a line INCLUDES = -I. Now when I compile I get " Declaration is incompatible with "double __log2(double)"" declared at and then path to file in /usr/include is given. so I presume in the code they are trying to redefine this log2 function and therefore it won't compile. So my question I guess would be: how do I not let make know about system include file and how do I force it to only
[01:47] <ntiy> -I. as a path to my includes?
[01:47] <KareemK> ActionParsnip: i have the live one though.. regular
[01:47] <KM0201> KareemK, you an add an alternate CD as a repo to upgrade, burt you still can't skip... you gotta go 10.04 <>> 10.10>>11.04
[01:48] <abahkaiyisah> ActionParsnip : i'll try w32codecs
[01:48] <ActionParsnip> KareemK: i don't believe you can use it, give it a try
[01:49] <b3t4> anyone use zorin ultimate?
[01:49] <gogearvibe4g> how do i access remote desktop manager in Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook?
[01:49] <ActionParsnip> b3t4: zorin isn't supported here
[01:49] <b3t4> any chan where it is?
[01:50] <b3t4> ActionParsnip if you find one pm me it ty
[01:51] <Loshki> ntiy: better to fix the declaration so it agrees, if you can. Where is log2 defined in your source code?
[01:51] <mickster04> b3t4: ActionParsnip isn't your chan searcher!
[01:52] <ActionParsnip> mickster04: where do you want to go today :D hahahh
[01:52] <b3t4> lol
[01:52] <ntiy> Loshki: I cant -- tehy define completely different function in their code. I does smth different from std log2
[01:52] <gogearvibe4g> My mouse won't change when i change it in themes. (11.04 beta 2) What can i do??
[01:53] <mickster04> !11.04
[01:53] <Eber> Hey guys, I know that in Maverick I have access to some packages like php-fpm and an updated sphinxsearch, but I need (want) to use lucid on my server. Is it possible to use those packages on lucid?
[01:53] <springscar> try restart x server
[01:53] <rzx237> gogearvibe4g: try logout and login back
[01:53] <Loshki> ntiy: can you pastebin the output to http://paste.ubuntu.com, please.
[01:54] <gogearvibe4g> .....so...no help?
[01:54] <Loshki> gogearvibe4g: help is in a different channel, namely #ubuntu+1
[01:55] <ntiy> Loshki: http://paste.ubuntu.com/599021/
[01:55] <gogearvibe4g> ok.
[01:56] <ntiy> Loshki: and here is line 462 from proto.h:   int log2(int);
[01:56] <ntiy> Loshki: so they just declare their own f-n that is different from log2 that is in system include file
[01:57] <gogearvibe4g> uh..better question, for 10.10.....I am in Netbook edition and my screen is to small to display everything, so part of the bottom screen is cut off.
[01:58] <rzx237> gogearvibe4g: do you mean the window or the desktop?
[01:58] <Darwon> hello folks, so I saved my thunderbird folder, in a different location, that was an NTFS folder, forgot, it was hidden, deleted, it, realized it, and now trying to recover
[01:58] <Darwon> suggestions?
[01:58] <Loshki> ntiy: this is because the source code comes from a different version of linux. What you need to do is to edit the source code to change the name log2 to something that doesn't clash with the existing log2 i.e. rename *all* instances of log2 anywhere in your code to something like my_log2 instead....
[01:58] <Eber> Hey guys, I know that in Maverick I have access to some packages like php-fpm and an updated sphinxsearch, but I need (want) to use lucid on my server. Is it possible to use those packages on lucid?
[01:59] <Darwon> im looking to recreate the whole directory, and not individual files
[01:59] <ntiy> Loshki: well, i thought about it. but since I am quite a noob I am affraid to screw up the rest of the code.... but I guess it's the only option I have right now
[01:59] <ntiy> Loshki: thanks for suggestion
[01:59] <rzx237> gogearvibe4g: you can move an unseen window bottom using alt+mouse drag, or you can configure virtual desktop resolution
[02:00] <Loshki> ntiy: make a copy of the code and work only on the copy. That way you can screw it up all you want and just start again with a new copy...
[02:01] <bonny>  i just upgraded from lubuntu 10.04 to 10.10 and when i looked in accessories i couldnt find file manager :( im so worried
[02:02] <Darwon> its under places
[02:03] <undecim> bonny: As Darwon said, it's under places. Just open up your Home Folder
[02:03] <schone> hello all
[02:04] <schone> Does anyone know of any software that can 'share' music to iTunes ?
[02:04] <geoland> buf-WARNING **: doesn't seem important. should I be concerned.
[02:04] <bonny> srry where is places
[02:04] <Addalaide> Can someone help me?
[02:05] <geoland> Sorry - Gdk-Pixbuf- WARNING **:
[02:05] <Darwon> looking for suggestions on recovering a deleted directory on an NTFS partition
[02:06] <ntiy> Loshki: man, thanks. that really helped. Could you please tell me in few words -- how did it happen? different version of linux you say? different in which sense?
[02:06] <Loshki> Eber: there's no guarantee you will be able to use them in lucid: it may be impossible to make them work. The best advice I can offer is to "stage" it first using virtualbox before you commit to changing versions.
[02:07] <wipmonkey> addalaide: did you have a question?
[02:07] <Loshki> ntiy: their version of linux presumably doesn't have log2, so they didn't see any conflicts when they made their own definition for it...
[02:07] <geoland> during upgrade I get a Gdk-Pixbuf-WARNING - is this of any consequence
[02:08] <doncams> hi. how do I recursive chmod and target dirs only
[02:08] <doncams> or target files only
[02:08] <multipass> is partedmagic able to install grub2?
[02:08] <ntiy> Loshki: hmm... I see. Yes this makes sense (a little): my target machine is CRAY and there is system-wide CRAY math libraries installed. so technically this code would have compiled on any other non-CRAY machine... I presume. Well, thanks anyway!
[02:09] <KM0201> multipass, no.. but you can install grub2 from a live cd..
[02:09] <Addalaide> My left side panel isnt showing my icons or the text, any suggestions?
[02:09] <KM0201> !natty | Addalaide
[02:10] <ntiy> Loshki: do you speak russian?
[02:11] <Loshki> ntiy: no, but I can see how someone might think so from the name. I'm actually British...
[02:11] <b3t4> lol
[02:11] <ntiy> Loshki: lol. exactly from the name)). nevermind
[02:12] <wipmonkey> doncams: sounds like you need a script.
[02:12] <ActionParsnip> multipass: partedmagic isn't supported here, your ubuntu livecd can do it
[02:13] <geoland> any advice on pixbuf errors during upgrade
[02:14] <Loshki> doncams: you need something like: find . -type d | xargs chmod <chmod-options>
[02:15] <ActionParsnip> geoland: upgrade of what?
[02:15] <geoland> ActionParsnip: 10.04 - 10.10 update manager
[02:16] <ActionParsnip> geoland: ok can you give the output of: sudo do-release-upgrade
[02:17] <ActionParsnip> geoland: use http://pastebin.com or similar
[02:19] <geoland> ActionParsnip: OK. Still upgrading - output, no new release.
[02:19] <ActionParsnip> geoland: ok run: sudo apt-get install update-manager-core; gksudo gedit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
[02:20] <ActionParsnip> geoland: change Promt=lts   to: Prompt=normal    save the new file, close gedit then run: sudo do-release-upgrade
[02:20] <mjn> hi all....any thoughts on clonezilla?
[02:20] <mickster04> !opinion
[02:22] <ActionParsnip> geoland: that's how I do it (when I use network to upgrade)
[02:22] <geoland> package manager is still running. will revisit after upgrade, Tks
[02:22] <mjn> mickster04, was that directed towards me?
[02:22] <bonny> where is places in lubuntu how do i open it up
[02:22] <mjn> mickster04, still trying to get a handle on etiquette...
[02:22] <ActionParsnip> bonny: you should have home folder on the desktop, or an icon for it on the panel
[02:23] <mickster04> mjn: oh yeah, but it's not a telling off, just a pointer
[02:23] <bonny> i dont thats the problem isnt it
[02:23] <bonny> i dont have a file manager on the desktop or on the panel
[02:23] <bonny> and its not in accesories either
[02:24] <derek_> anyone know anything about setting up Eve Online?
[02:24] <mjn> mickster04, nw....so how does one go about seeding a discussion about the merits of a particular application/technology/implementation?...is irc not the proper place?
[02:24] <ActionParsnip> bonny: under accessories there should be file manager, I believe you can right click and add it to the desktop
[02:25] <bonny_> i dont have file manager in accesories
[02:25] <derek_> or anyone willing to help diagnose my problem?
[02:25] <Darwon> bonny
[02:25] <mickster04> mjn: irc yes, #ubuntu no, try in ubuntu-offtpoic
[02:25] <bonny> yes
[02:25] <mickster04> offtopic*
[02:25] <bonny> can i open file manager from terminal
[02:26] <Darwon> type nautilus in terminal, that is what I was just about to tell you
[02:26] <mjn> mickster04, 'preciate it...ty....that was a typO though? should be #ubuntu-offtopic?...
[02:26] <epril> is it possible to enable picasa face detection on ubuntu? if it is possible then how to make it possible?
[02:26] <mickster04> mjn: yeah i corrected my spelling a little late
[02:26] <mjn> mickster04, and what are the proper uses of the channel....specifics of problems/
[02:26] <mjn> mickster04, ?
[02:27] <mickster04> mjn: this channel: read the topic
[02:27] <mickster04> mjn: ubuntu-offtopic is anything i think
[02:27] <mjn> mickster04, gotcha, tech support only...ty
[02:27] <jemc> anyone in here knows something 'bout electronics?
[02:28] <mickster04> jemc: this prolly isn't the place to ask
[02:28] <mickster04> jemc: and why not type about* it's jsut as quick as 'bout?
[02:28] <mickster04> just*
[02:28] <jemc> mickster04: I know, but I'm desesperate
[02:28] <jemc> I'm used to that
[02:29] <jemc> and this it's the only irc server I know
[02:29] <Darwon> looking for suggestions on recovering a deleted directory on an NTFS partition
[02:29] <jemc> I entered Ubuntu 'cause was the first I could think of
[02:29] <soreau> mickster04: he's probably canadian or somethin
[02:29] <jemc> any channel you could recommend?
[02:29] <epril> is it possible to enable picasa face detection on ubuntu? if it is possible then how to make it possible?
[02:29] <ActionParsnip> bonny: maybe under system tools?
[02:29] <ActionParsnip> Darwon: use your backups
[02:30] <jemc> soreau: no sucker, I'm Mexican and surely I have broader abilities in Linux and life than you, so STFU!
[02:30] <Darwon> no, that wont work for this
[02:30] <mjn> Darwon, you have a windows system available?
[02:30] <mickster04> !ot | jemc
[02:30] <Darwon> yes, mjn, but the first app I used didnt work
[02:30] <bonny> im not using ubuntu im using lubuntu
[02:30] <jemc> ok, sorry won't troll, bye
[02:30] <bonny> so i dont have nautilus
[02:30] <eXscalate> hey guys... following question: windows 7 has the aero snap feature which makes it possible for users to just simply drag a window to the left or right and the windows get automatically resized to half of the screen. However you can also alternatively press the windows key plus left or right, which goes much faster. Now is there a possibility to make ubuntu do the same as soon as i push the super button plus left or right? I tried
[02:30] <eXscalate>  to search online but there are only tutorials how to get it to snap the windows to the edge by dragging them... thanks guys for the help!
[02:30] <stravant> What tool can I use to inspect the color of pixels on the screen? Like, an eyedropper tool for the desktop.
[02:30] <nit-wit> Darwon, might be worth looking at be careful. http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk
[02:30] <soreau> jemc: You don't even know me so just keep working on trying to not pronounce 'about' as 'boot'
[02:30] <mjn> Darwon, that app being chkdsk?
[02:31] <mickster04> !lubuntu | bonny
[02:31] <Darwon> mjn, Im not sure how chkdsk would help
[02:31] <Darwon> thanks nitwit
[02:31] <nit-wit> no problem
[02:31] <ex0a> is it possible to customize the indicator applet? it's way too big for my tastes
[02:31] <Darwon> Ive tried ntfsundelete but it does individual files
[02:31] <ZykoticK9> eXscalate, wait for Unity, it has that 1/2 screen "snapping"
[02:31] <rhin0> question -- does heat in a laptop actually slow it down?
[02:31] <ActionParsnip> epril: which version of picasa and which version of ubuntu?
[02:31] <syrinx_> rhin0: yes
[02:32] <eXscalate> ZykoticK9: ok... is there btw already a date when it is supposed to come out?
[02:32] <rhin0> so despite the unwieldiness it is best if i start using cooling pad i have
[02:32] <rhin0> just never thought it actually SLOWED DOWN the machine -- just got hot
[02:32] <ZykoticK9> eXscalate, technically Unity is out right now, but Natty is scheduled for the 28th i believe
[02:32] <rhin0> syrinx
[02:32] <soreau> eXscalate: Look into compiz grid plugin.. but it sounds like you might be using natty already?
[02:32] <epril> ActionParsnip: ubuntu 10.10 picasa 3.0
[02:32] <stravant> Well, if it gets too hot it has to slow down to prevent further overheating
[02:32] <Darwon> the other issue is, that the options for my gpg keyserver is unsafe and it wont let me add anything
[02:33] <rhin0> gotcha --- I just assumed the processor always ran at the same speed
[02:33] <eXscalate> soreau: im using the latest stable version of ubuntu... so not the newly beta
[02:33] <html_inprogress> hi
[02:33] <mickster04> rhin0: some older ones will regardless, if you don't have sufficient cooling they wqill prolly just shut down
[02:33] <blognewb> Hey guys i am dealing with a serious issue.. i managed to zero in on one of two scammers that conned my mom. is there a way to plant like a keylogger file to their computers or maybe just trace their exact location? One of the scammers is based in Australia, managed to get her photo, address, and phone number
 and IP address, isp
 via email header
 Her partner is in Ghana
 I figured.
[02:33] <FloodBot1> blognewb: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:33] <blognewb> The african man is using Magic Jack so he was able to use a PA area code and pretended to be in mainland us. i3c wouldn't do anything so my last bet would be the australian government. we're in cali. What I need to know is the exact identity of the man from Ghana since I already know the Australian scammer. i would appreciate any input, thanks
[02:33] <soreau> eXscalate: So you only have the keybindings available though you can hack compiz 0.8 to have the drag feature too
[02:34] <mickster04> !paste | blognewb
[02:34] <rhin0> ok thanks guys
[02:34] <soreau> eXscalate: If you're already running compiz (desktop effects), install compiz-fusion-plugins-extra
[02:34] <html_inprogress> rhin0,  whats your gui?
[02:34] <epril> ActionParsnip: ubuntu 10.10 picasa 3.0
[02:34] <jack_^> blognewb, wtf
[02:34] <rhin0> standard gnome ubuntu 10.04
[02:34] <soreau> eXscalate: and compizconfig-settings-managers, then look for Grid in Window Management category
[02:34] <stravant> What tool can I use to inspect the color of pixels on the screen? Is there something like that in the set of standard gnome applications?
[02:34] <mickster04> blognewb: wrong channel for that
[02:35] <soreau> eXscalate: compizconfig-settings-manager*
[02:35] <eXscalate> soreau: ok! i will do so! thx for that tip... another question: is it possible to safe all your compiz settings, so that if i completely reinstall ubuntu i can simply recover all my settings and programs?
[02:35] <ActionParsnip> epril: 3.5 has face recog according to: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-install-picasa-3-5-in-ubuntu.html
[02:35] <mjn> Darwon, maybe i misunderstood...what was the ?
[02:35] <Rehan> could someone help me with a terminal script I'm trying to setup? I have this so far: http://pastebin.com/e4HmGnGt but I'm trying to make the terminal window quit on its own after executing, even if there are any errors
[02:35] <soreau> eXscalate: Yes but it will only work for that version of compiz
[02:35] <ActionParsnip> epril: fyi I don't use picasa, I just websearched
[02:35] <blognewb> jack_^ pls tell the channel i accidentally hit the wrong browser window to paste my message
[02:35] <blognewb> jack_^ i am on mute
[02:35] <jack_^> O_o
[02:35] <soreau> eXscalate: ccsm>Preferences>Export (and Import to restore)
[02:36] <blognewb> can you see my msg?
[02:36] <epril> ActionParsnip: I will try that.. thanks for that info
[02:36] <Darwon> mjn, trying to recover a deleted directory from an NTFS partition
[02:36] <rhin0> we can hear you blognewb
[02:36] <blognewb> test
[02:36] <blognewb> ohh sorry fawk
[02:36] <jack_^> blognewb, no, type in all caps
[02:36] <ActionParsnip> epril: did you research any prior to asking?
[02:36] <Darwon> someone suggested testdisk, but willing to hear all options
[02:36] <mjn> Darwon, ooh...nm...sorry
[02:36] <blognewb> sigh i am so frustrated with this thing
[02:36] <Darwon> mjn, all suggestions are appreciated regardless, thank you for contributing in an effort to help
[02:36] <ActionParsnip> Darwon: foremost may help providing the data hasn't been overwritten
[02:36] <blognewb> Well good thing my mom didn't wire any money but i still want to put the scammers to a stop
[02:36] <mickster04> blognewb: wrong channel for this...
[02:37] <html_inprogress> blognewb, there are ways,, dark way of gettin that info, but if the court asked how did you find the guy,just dont point it here
[02:37] <Acid190> blognewb: if you have to ask a support channel for that, then you prolly wont get em'
[02:37] <epril> ActionParsnip: i tried searching already many times, i just tried to ask here if someone knows a direct answer
[02:37] <blognewb> Acid190 do you know the "official" channel for anonymous?
[02:37] <Acid190> ha
[02:37] <Acid190> lol
[02:37] <blognewb> the one they used during the HBGary
[02:37] <Acid190> I wouldn't tell you, and no one prolly will
[02:38] <blognewb> my mom told me go ask help from the anonymous people
[02:38] <eXscalate> soreau: but then i wont have also my programs backed up right? i mean like for example firefox 4...
[02:38] <blognewb> Acid190 it's online i just cant remember where to get it
[02:38] <Acid190> they prolly wouldn't care, but good luck man
[02:38] <Darwon> I will tell you, but they would rather hack you then help you
[02:38] <soreau> eXscalate: Maybe I didnt read your question right, lets see
[02:38] <Acid190> Darwon:exactly
[02:38] <epril> ActionParsnip: i tried searching already many times, i just tried to ask here if someone knows a direct answer
[02:39] <blognewb> Darwon i doubt that
[02:39] <Acid190> blognewb: when you enter security channels, you are taking a risk
[02:39] <Darwon> ok, on 2nd thought, I wont tell you :)
[02:39] <html_inprogress> blognewb, whats your doing requires a few sub-msterskills
[02:39] <soreau> eXscalate: So save all settings, just backup/restore your entire home folder
[02:39] <KM0201> blognewb, whats your issue anyway?
[02:39] <soreau> To*
[02:39] <blognewb> KM0201 its not ubuntu related sorry
[02:39] <KM0201> oh
[02:39] <mickster04> !ot | blognewb
[02:39] <blognewb> i found the identity of one scammer by myself
[02:39] <eXscalate> soreau: thanks! so afterwards i just paste it into the new system, right?
[02:39]  * KM0201 never goes to security related channels.
[02:39] <mickster04> thank you
[02:40] <soreau> eXscalate: The home folder, yes. Only do it for the same version of ubuntu though
[02:40] <rhin0> i saw the fbi poster reports scammers a while back -- they advertised a form to fill in -- filled it in with all the details I knew (scammed) not that they could help me in the UK but it made me feel better
[02:40] <blognewb> FBI wouldnt do a thing
[02:40]  * Acid190 hangs in security channels
[02:40] <Acid190> blognewb: go test that theory out
[02:40] <eXscalate> soreau: ok man! thanks a lot for the information!
[02:41] <Acid190> #backtrack-linux
[02:41] <soreau> eXscalate: no problem
[02:41] <blognewb> Acid190 the IC3 guy said it himself
[02:41] <mickster04> blognewb: take it elsewhere
[02:41] <blognewb> they said they are more focused on "terrorism" right now
[02:41] <blognewb> k shutting up. thanks
[02:43] <luckysmack> is it actually possible to set it up so when i plug in my headphones my speakers are muted? so i only get sound from the headphones
[02:44] <ActionParsnip> luckysmack: what make / model is the system?
[02:44] <luckysmack> every time i try to change a setting so only headphones work it kills all my sound and i have to restart
[02:44] <luckysmack> custom build.
[02:44] <Darwon> lol @ more interested in terrorism
[02:45] <luckysmack> im on 11.04, so i should probably ask in there. but its more of a general question i think.
[02:45] <ActionParsnip> luckysmack: ok try adding: options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1      to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
[02:45] <Darwon> nitwit, testdisk is finding the same files as the windows app
[02:45] <ActionParsnip> luckysmack: are you using an audigy soundcard?
[02:45] <Darwon> any other suggestions?
[02:45] <luckysmack> i have core 2 duo,  geforce 8800 gts,
[02:46] <ActionParsnip> luckysmack: yes, nattty isn't supported here
[02:46] <mickster04> luckysmack: and really ask in 11.04. it's more of a 11.04 problem i think
[02:46] <luckysmack> no
[02:46] <ActionParsnip> luckysmack: ask in #ubuntu+1
[02:46] <ActionParsnip> luckysmack: your CPU and video card are of zero interest
[02:46] <luckysmack> is it? i figured here might be ok cause i had the same issue in maverick. im just getting tired of it. lol
[02:46] <luckysmack> ActionParsnip: ok let me try that
[02:46] <guest09876> I cant sync my iphone but i can mount it and pull pic off it
[02:46] <ActionParsnip> luckysmack: ask in #ubuntu+1  natty isn't supported here
[02:47] <luckysmack> k
[02:47] <luckysmack>  /join #ubuntu+1
[02:47] <mickster04> guest09876: error messages?
[02:47] <guest09876> nope
[02:48] <guest09876> none what so ever
[02:48] <mickster04> guest09876: then how do you know it isn't syncing>
[02:48] <mickster04> ?
[02:48] <guest09876> well rhbox trys to find it
[02:48] <nit-wit> Darwon, I have never had to recover like this I have everything cloned or saved externally so I'm at bets not much help.
[02:48] <guest09876> my iphone makes a noise
[02:48] <guest09876> then nothing
[02:48] <nit-wit> *best
[02:49] <guest09876> ty for replying
[02:49] <Darwon> ok nit-wit fair enough, thanks for contributing, Im kind of desperate at this point
[02:49] <Darwon> it was my email
[02:49] <Acid190> guest09876: you might want to bluetooth it
[02:49] <nit-wit> bummer
[02:49] <Darwon> 7 years
[02:49] <mickster04> guest09876: well a) i don't have an iphone and b) i aint in ubuntu... so i can't help :/
[02:50] <ActionParsnip> Darwon: why don't you have backups?
[02:50] <guest09876> well acid this will be my first real attemp to fin this problem
[02:50] <guest09876> mick, thanks though
[02:50] <rodger> Hi guys, i'm running xbuntu version 10.10 and after boot up my screen goes black, any help would be good thank you.
[02:50] <guest09876> fix*
[02:50] <mickster04> !xubuntu
[02:50] <ActionParsnip> rodger: what video chip do you use?
[02:50] <Darwon> not of this stuff, I was in process of setting that up, when this occured
[02:50] <Darwon> it was online, but I had moved it offline
[02:50] <mickster04> rodger: did you see that ^^^
[02:50] <guest09876> my old ipod died today
[02:50] <ActionParsnip> Darwon: thats really unlucky :(
[02:50] <rodger> ati
[02:50] <Rehan> hiexpo: still around?
[02:50] <ActionParsnip> rodger: try the boot option:  nomodeset
[02:51] <Darwon> totally ActionParsnip, agreed
[02:51] <rodger> where do you find that?
[02:51] <ActionParsnip> !bootoption | rodger
[02:51] <Darwon> thast an interesting nick you have btw, gotta love it
[02:51] <rodger> ok thankyou
[02:51] <ActionParsnip> rodger: nobody is born knowing, try RESEARCHING based on the advise given instead of immediately asking
[02:51] <Darwon> I guess you dont get too many people trying to jupe your nick
[02:51] <stravant> Is there any sort of standard Gnome tool to inspect the color of pixels on the desktop?
[02:52] <Starminn> stravant: Gcolor2?
[02:52] <ActionParsnip> Darwon: the kids in ##windows may know some data recovery tools
[02:53] <Starminn> You know how 10.10 has got that nifty Sound/Messaging panel menu combo thing? Are there any panel applet that just have the sound menu without the messaging menu? (Not talking about gnome-volume-control or whatever it is -- I'm looking for the same "pretty" the default applet has. I think it's called Indicator Applet.)
[02:54] <Darwon> Thanks Parsnip, Imma try that
[02:54] <fa21> stravant, just change wallpaper and just change the color, you have a color pipette there..
[02:54] <viper474> Of the following, which are capable of voice chat on ubuntu: MSN, Yahoo, or Google Talk?
[02:54] <Starminn> fa21: I thought he was thinking of more of an "eyedropper" tool.
[02:54] <stravant> Thanks, gcolor2 works great. Also, is there a magnifier?
[02:55] <Starminn> stravant: SUPER key + scroll wheel
[02:55] <Starminn> stravant: Or if you're on a web page or something similar CTRL+scroll wheel
[02:56] <Starminn> stravant: IF you need more magnifiers and oter similar things, look into Compiz Config Settings Manager -- there's a few Compiz magnifiers
[02:56] <stravant> Can I get a non-antialiased one? =P Seems like an odd request but I'm trying to inspect how some widgets are drawn as the pixel-level
[02:56] <ZykoticK9> viper474, MSN and Google Talk for sure, Yahoo I'm uncertain of.
[02:57] <viper474> ZykoticK9, Thanks for the reply. Which application for MSN?
[02:57] <Starminn> stravant: My first thought off the top of my head is: Take a screenshot of the widget and play with it in GIMP (eydropper, full zomm ins, etc.)
[02:57] <Sego> Is it possible to password an email so that other people cannot view it with Ubuntu - Evolution?
[02:57] <ZykoticK9> viper474, amsn for one, probably others as well
[02:57] <fa21> yepp amsn is the ...
[02:58] <stravant> Starminn: Yea, that's what I'm doing right now, and I guess it will probably turn out to be the easiest way
[02:58] <ActionParsnip> viper474: there is also emesene and pidgin
[02:59] <stravant> Is there a shortcut to screenshot only the focused window?
[02:59] <Starminn> stravant: Id' say so. Because even if you could zoom in more efficiently (SUPER+scroll blurs things up close in my experience) and then use the Gcolor2 eye dropper, you wouldn't be saving *that* much time, really.
[02:59] <Starminn> stravant: Applications->Accessories-
[02:59] <Starminn> >Take Screenshot, play with settings
[02:59] <ActionParsnip> stravant: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=86404
[02:59]  * Starminn apologizies for the fat-fingered Enter
[03:00] <mickster04> stravant: tbh this is a little tedious....just screen shot the whole page and use GIMP
[03:00] <Starminn> stravant: You can take a screenshot of only the area you drag-and-drop with your mouse, or only current window, etc.
[03:00] <Starminn> mickster04: Right, that's what I was saying. Screenshot the area he wants, then play in GIMP
[03:00] <stravant> Thanks! that should be all for now.
[03:01] <MaRk-I> stravant: you can also install ksnapshot or shutter they have more options
[03:03] <hiexpo> Rehan, whats up sorry got booted
[03:03] <ActionParsnip> stravant: if you want to be super geeky you can use imagemagick and specify x,y co-ords of the section
[03:03] <ZykoticK9> ActionParsnip, that would be "super geeky" ;)
[03:04] <mickster04> that would be wasteful and overkill...-_-

[03:04] <stravant> Making a shortcut to gnome-screenshot --area works great
[03:06] <Starminn> Are there any GNOME Panel applets that are like the sound applet in "Indicator Applet" but is *just* the sound instead of Sound+Messaging combined?
[03:07] <cjae> Hi, I am trying to lift text from a scanned paper, I have xsane installed but it keeps saying no ocr program
[03:07] <Starminn> Oh, sorry, I remember how to remove it now. It was some command line argument. Hmm.... *looks through Terminal history*
[03:08] <ActionParsnip> ZykoticK9: 1337 is the word ;)

[03:10] <GuyCanada> hey guys, im trying to set up a connection to transmission from within boxee, it wants a hostname/ ip username and password. where would i find this?
[03:10] <trism> Starminn: sudo apt-get remove indicator-messages;
[03:10] <Starminn> trism: That was the one I was thinking of!!
[03:10]  * Starminn tries it
[03:11] <Starminn> Yep, that msot certainly was it. I couldn't remember the specifics of it, though. Thank you very much, trism. :) Saved me the time of combing my history.
[03:11] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: run:  hostname   on the server to get it's name
[03:12] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: the username and passowrd you set in the web tab
[03:13] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: you can then connect to port 9091 in a web browser (or transgui if you prefer an app)
[03:13] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip: i set a username and password in theweb tab of transmission but i dont know how to get he hostname. what web server do i run hostname on? i dont really know what you mean by that
[03:13] <groovyD> I can't get my synaptic touchpad to work correctly on my laptop.  Running Mint 10, based on Ubuntu 10.10. Right click doesn't work, and touchpad stays activated when typing, even though I have it set in the Gnome configuration GUI settings to deactivate when typing. Any suggestions?
[03:13] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: there is no web server per se
[03:13] <groovyD> oh yeah, hello everyone!  :)
[03:13] <ActionParsnip> groovyD: mint isn't supported here
[03:13] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip: ok then how exactly do i get the ip? and im trying to use an app in boxee
[03:13] <groovyD> i understand.  the Mint team advised they do not support drivers/hardware
[03:14] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: the host name is the name of the system running transmission
[03:14] <GuyCanada> ahhhh
[03:14] <MaRk-I> GuyCanada: just the IP of the pc running the program
[03:14] <groovyD> since it is based on Ubuntu, i thought perhaps some help would be available
[03:14] <ActionParsnip> groovyD: your distribution is offtopic here
[03:14] <GuyCanada> thanks guys
[03:14] <ActionParsnip> !mint | groovyD
[03:14] <groovyD> thanks
[03:15] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: if you use android OS on your phone install transdroid and you can amange torrents from your phone as well as add new ones and remove existing ones etc
[03:15] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip: really?? cool. so is it the local ip of my computer or like the ip that the interweb sees?
[03:15] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: very cool :)
[03:16] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: you will need to port forward if you want to use the mobile network, or if you are on your local network then you can use the lan IP
[03:16] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: remember in the webui to uncheck the allowed clients box, the default is to only allow localhost to connect
[03:17] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip: ok thanks
[03:18] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: its good fun, the fatrat team are also planning to make an android app too for regular ftp/http downloads
[03:19] <freaky[t]> hi all. is there anything with which i can view and write to ext4 partitions from within windows7?
[03:20] <Silentmyst> windows 7 disk manager
[03:20] <Silentmyst> right click on computer click manage
[03:20] <Silentmyst> go down to disk management
[03:20] <cjae> ActionParsnip: thanks
[03:20] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip: sounds cool, im still having trouble connecting but i think the problem might be the app now. i have web ui enabled in transmission and now im going to temporarily turn of authentication so if i input my lan ip as ip i should be able to connect yeah?
[03:21] <hanasaki> in the past I have seen /dev/md0 for mdadm software raid.    now I see /dev/md_d0    what generally causes one vs the other?
[03:21] <Silentmyst> anyways, anyone use xsplash? if so i installed it and im not getting a splash screen (artwork package installed as well)
[03:21] <mike> a
[03:21] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: you need to uncheck "only allow these IP addresses to connect" in this window http://transdroid.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/ubuntutransmissionenablewebui.png?w=300&h=260
[03:21] <Silentmyst> any ideas?
[03:22] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: under where you set the password
[03:22] <talia28> hey people, how can I mount my windows partition ? i receive failed to write lock... Resource Temporary Unavailable...
[03:23] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip: its unchecked
[03:23] <mickster04> talia28: are you using wubi?
[03:23] <manicou> Hey everybody c:
[03:24] <Auzy> hello
[03:24] <Silentmyst> anyone? xsplash?
[03:24] <manicou> How's life?
[03:24] <talia28> mickster04: nop, just mount
[03:24] <hanasaki> Silentmyst:  what is that
[03:24] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: can you connect to localhost?
[03:24] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: http://localhost:9091
[03:24]  * Auzy hates to say it, but he just had the WORST experience with developers ever in the fedora channel
[03:24] <manicou> I was curious about the difference between GTK1 and GTK2 themes and wanted to ask if anyone knew about that?
[03:24] <GuyCanada> yep
[03:25] <GuyCanada> works in my browser
[03:25] <Silentmyst> hanaski: sets up a splash screen for when you boot, kinda like windows shows windows logo with a progress bar
[03:25] <hanasaki> lol Au
[03:25] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip: yep, works in my browser
[03:25] <hanasaki> will 11.04 in a few days have the gnome or that new unity?
[03:25] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: ok then jump on a different PC and connect
[03:25] <ActionParsnip> hanasaki: ask in #ubuntu=1
[03:25] <manicou> I had a terrible experience with mods for a private ebook tracker.
[03:25] <ActionParsnip> #ubuntu+1
[03:25] <manicou> What happened?
[03:25] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip: dont really have any other pcs on hand
[03:25] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: ok are you using your phone on wifi?
[03:26] <Auzy> actually, I am interested in giving Unity a go.. anyone using it now?
[03:26] <ActionParsnip> Auzy: indeed
[03:26] <Auzy> Gnome 3 in Fedora wasn't bad actually
[03:26] <Bubblehead> talia28 are you wanting to mount using fstab?
[03:26] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip: yep, i can be. didnt think of that, ill try taht
[03:26] <Auzy> I can see why people would hate it, but it is productive
[03:26] <Silentmyst> talia28: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[03:27] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: if you don't configure port forwarding your router will drop the connection attempt. I suggest you add a torrent just so you see something when you connect
[03:27] <hanasaki> is there a way to resize a disk partition btrfs?  like with ext4 and gparted?
[03:27] <Auzy> I didn't think btrfs even had fsck yet hanasaki.. I might be wrong,but You'd want to exercise caution regardless
[03:27] <ActionParsnip> hanasaki: should be resizable in livecd (so the partitions are unmounted)
[03:28] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip: yep i cant access from my phone
[03:28] <hanasaki> the docs say its resizable on the fly and has defrag on the fly
[03:28] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip: but the app im using is on my pc, its boxee media centre
[03:30] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip. never mind i was being stupid. im connected on my phone now
[03:30] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: try using the IP instead
[03:30] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: awesome welcome to amazingville :)
[03:30] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip: yeah, i fixed it up, im connected to the web client on the phone
[03:30] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip. ahaha yeah its pretty awesome but i still cant make it work with my boxee app :(
[03:31] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: if you setup port forwarding on port 9091 to your server's IP you can be out and about and manage your torrents (or add them using the browser)
[03:31] <talia28> Silentmyst: I'm using Karmic
[03:31] <ayrton> hey guys i installed a natice linux game, amnesia the dark descent, it should run good with my gma 4500m, but when i run it and its about to go to gameplay it crashes to a black terminal screen saying things like fsdc
[03:31] <talia28> Bubblehead: yes, but just mount manually doesnt work either
[03:32] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip: im not sure if what your saying is going over my head but that doesnt help me get my app working does it?
[03:33] <ilikenwf> so i'm running ubuntu server, and dpkg has frozen
[03:33] <fishhat> i need help someone?
[03:33] <ilikenwf> pkill and kill -9 isn't killing
[03:33] <ilikenwf> it
[03:33] <ilikenwf> any advice?
[03:33] <viper474> killall [appname]
[03:33] <ilikenwf> tried that too
[03:33] <fishhat> any one know how to install gtoolsnoopbar?
[03:34] <viper474> with sudo?
[03:34] <ilikenwf> i'm root
[03:34] <ActionParsnip> GuyCanada: I don't use boxee. I use VLC + vlc remote by peter baldwin
[03:34] <ActionParsnip> !aptfix | ilikenwf
[03:34] <GuyCanada> actionparsnip: ok, well thanks for your help. i can actually probably do everyhting i need from the browser within boxee now but id liek to get this app to work. thanks
[03:35] <ilikenwf> that doesn't work either
[03:35] <ActionParsnip> !info gtoolsnoopbar
[03:35] <fishhat> guycanada, do you know how to install gsnoopbar?
[03:35] <ActionParsnip> fishhat: I just websearched gtoolsnoopbar and got aero results
[03:35] <viper474> ActionParsnip is a wealth of knowledge, just saying.
[03:35] <ActionParsnip> viper474: thanks dude :)

[03:36] <ilikenwf> sorry about flooding
[03:36] <ActionParsnip> ilikenwf: what is the PID of that process?
[03:36] <mickster04> ilikenwf: sudo reboot?
[03:36] <ilikenwf> 8543
[03:36] <ilikenwf> well, reboot is dangerous
[03:36] <GuyCanada> fishhat: no whats that?
[03:36] <ilikenwf> this is a production webserver
[03:36] <ActionParsnip> ilikenwf: so:   sudo kill -9 8543    doesn't work?
[03:37] <ilikenwf> nope
[03:37] <dabbish> I used to be able to do scp, but now I get Permission denied? It's a bit unspecific but does anyone know what I might have changed?
[03:37] <mickster04> ilikenwf: did you autocomplete that pid?
[03:37] <ActionParsnip> ilikenwf: what is the parent process IS (please don't say 1 or 0)
[03:37] <fishhat> anyone know how to make gbarsnoop excutable on python?
[03:37] <mickster04> dabbish: the folder permissions?
[03:37] <mickster04> fishhat: define 'on python'
[03:37] <merther> Has anyone been able to get Ubuntu One to sync bookmarks?  This hasn't been working for me.
[03:38] <dabbish> mickster04, thanks. that might be it. lemme check
[03:38] <fishhat> well im trying to run it in python program and it won't work its pissing me off..
[03:39] <ActionParsnip> fishhat: is the script marked executable?
[03:39] <fishhat> yup./
[03:39] <fishhat> i wrote it and made sure its executable and it won't work
[03:41] <ilikenwf> it's owned by 1
[03:41] <ilikenwf> :(
[03:41] <mickster04> fishhat: error messages?
[03:41] <fishhat> it says Traceback (most recent call last):
[03:41] <fishhat>   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
[03:41] <fishhat> NameError: name 'gtoolbarsnoop' is not defined
[03:42] <Auzy> fishhat: That probably comes down to code problems
[03:42] <Auzy> You could pastebin it
[03:42] <fishhat> yeah im looking at it right now.
[03:42] <LostinBogger> So, I started fucking with my sound card driver and I have no hardware devices listed in sound preferences anymore
[03:43] <LostinBogger> any easy way to reset to default
[03:43] <fishhat> so im going to try fixing it and re-runing it and see if it works.
[03:43] <mickster04> !ohmy | LostinBogger
[03:43] <fishhat> i mean im a expert with python : D
[03:44] <LostinBogger> My apologies. I watch not what I say in person, nor on the internet. Perhaps, I'm crude, crass and unrefined.
[03:44] <lahwran> how do I flush my dns?
[03:45] <Captainkrtek> I think there is something wrong with the calendar in Ubuntu, unless I dont get a certain bit of it http://i.imgur.com/uPjZK.png there are two 16's and so on

[03:47] <IdleOne> no problem
[03:49] <J697> I have a seperate computer running Ubuntu 10.10 its a laptop and it won't detect my wireless network

[03:52] <merther> Has anyone been able to get Ubuntu One to correctly sync bookmarks?  This hasn't been working for me.
[03:52] <webBuilder> hey guys where is firefox application images saved in ubuntu?
[03:52] <Acid190> tmp?
[03:53] <mickster04> webBuilder: you mean the icons?
[03:53] <webBuilder> I was looking like the error message the check mark etc.
[03:53] <webBuilder> mickster04, correct
[03:53] <webBuilder> mickster04, yes the icons
[03:53] <mickster04> webBuilder: ask them for where the themes are stored
[03:53] <webBuilder> mickster04, whom ?
[03:53] <webBuilder> firefox
[03:54] <mickster04> webBuilder: ff team
[03:54] <webBuilder> mickster04, thank you I'lll log off and try to contact them
[03:56] <LostinBogger> I am unsure how to reset to the default audio driver after trying to install a downloaded driver. Might anyone be interested in helping me out? I'm quite computer savvy, but just switched to ubuntu
[03:56] <osfan> heya
[03:57] <merther> From what I'm reading there's a known issue with syncing bookmarks with ubuntu one in 10.04 but it says it's working in 10.10.  I'm using  a fresh install of 10.10 and haven't been able to get it to work.
[03:58] <alondra> silly question
[03:58] <alondra> is there a Finding the differences game for Ubuntu/Linux?
[03:58] <kok0525> 大家好
[03:59] <alondra> my wife can't play her favorite game here (I know, why would she with so many awesome things to do)
[04:00] <mickster04> alondra: search the software centre
[04:01] <dabbish> So I create a new user, made that user admin. And the only way I can edit files with that user (that is owned by another use), is by doing sudo. So when I use scp I get a permission denied error. What to do?
[04:01] <alondra> thanks mickster04. I already did but couldn't find any
[04:02] <Therandai> Good evening folks.......need a little guidance please. My mouse stops working almost once an hour. I have tried both a wireless mouse and a corded USB mouse - same thing keep happening. Running 10.10

[04:04] <hanasaki> is there a tool that will rewrite the sources.lst to the fastest servers?
[04:04]  * LAcan Does anyone have experience with the Alureon virus? It's off-topic I know but the level of infection I'm experiencing is beyond the grasp of ##windows. PM if you're inetresdted.
[04:04] <rww> LAcan: If it's offtopic, don't say it in here.
[04:04] <IdleOne> hanasaki: yes, Software Sources, should be in System > Administration if not see !softsources
[04:05] <hanasaki> !softsources
[04:05] <LAcan> rww; got a suggested channel for ths?
[04:05] <rww> LAcan: ##windows and patience
[04:05] <LAcan> lollo64it, ya thanks for the tip
[04:05] <rww> freenode is for peer-directed projects, though, so Windows viruses are more than a little out of scope.
[04:06] <merther> Anyone able to help with ideas for resolving sync issues with bookmarks with Ubuntu One in 10.10?
[04:06] <LAcan> merther, ya switch to firefox 4
[04:06] <Therandai> I need a little guidance please. My mouse stops working almost once an hour. I have tried both a wireless mouse and a corded USB mouse - same thing keep happening. Running 10.10
[04:06] <IdleOne> merther: #ubuntuone can help, patience will be required
[04:07] <merther> LAcan: I'll try that.  IdleOne:  I'll check with them, thanks.
[04:07] <IdleOne> merther: welcome
[04:07] <LAcan> merther, both ff4 and chromium have their own syncing engines, notable better than ubuntuone
[04:07] <webBuilder> hey guys where are the firefox icons stored in ubuntu
[04:07] <webBuilder> I asked the ff people but they ignore me :(
[04:08] <webBuilder> I hope I will be lucky in here
[04:08] <IdleOne> /usr/share/icons iirc
[04:08] <LAcan> web_knows, should be one on your panel if you using Gnome
[04:08] <webBuilder> LAcan, I'm thinking you are talking to me
[04:08] <webBuilder> can you tell me where exactly
[04:10] <IdleOne> webBuilder: /usr/share/pixmaps
[04:10] <webBuilder> IdleOne, nope is not that one
[04:10] <webBuilder> I already went there
[04:10] <webBuilder> they are not firefox's icon
[04:10] <LAcan> webBuilder, yes, sorry
[04:10] <webBuilder> can anyone tell me just like IdleOne one did
[04:10] <IdleOne> webBuilder: that is where the firefox icon is located on my system
[04:11] <LAcan> webBuilder, ive had the same question.. id also like to know where the ubuntu native icons are stored, so if you find out let me know
[04:11] <Starminn> IdleOne: He's looking for the icons WITHIN Firefox.
[04:11] <IdleOne> oh
[04:11] <webBuilder> LAcan if I do I will thank you
[04:11] <Starminn> IdleOne: Mhm. :/ Stumps me. Not sure where Firefox keeps their specific icons.
[04:11] <webBuilder> guys it should be something mozilla not firefox I think
[04:12] <red2kic> Use dpkg to view the files in a package.
[04:12] <Acid190> /etc/share/icons, that's what im finding for ubuntu
[04:12] <IdleOne> webBuilder: ~/.mozilla/firefox maybe
[04:12] <red2kic> dpkg -L (or dpkg -l) -- I'm not sure.
[04:12] <webBuilder> let see IdleOne
[04:12] <IdleOne> try Acid190 suggestion also
[04:13] <Acid190> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=400599
[04:15] <ex0a> any suggestions on a good gpu (i'm partial to ati) that works equally well in ubuntu and windows?
[04:15] <IdleOne> webBuilder: dpkg -L firefox is showing /usr/share/pixmaps
[04:15] <mickster04> !nvidia
[04:15] <mickster04> @!ati
[04:15] <Auzy> Depends on your needs ex0a
[04:15] <webBuilder> IdleOne, /usr/share/pixmaps are not firefox/ mozilla icons :(
[04:15] <aaron_> what is the official release date and time of Natty?
[04:15] <mickster04> !natty
[04:15] <IdleOne> webBuilder: try #ubuntu-mozillateam
[04:16] <Acid190> ex0a:nvidia works great for me, and has for years
[04:16] <IdleOne> webBuilder: or try #ubuntu-mozilla-team
[04:16] <webBuilder> IdleOne, I did they ignore me :(
[04:16] <rww> aaron_: April 28th, and there is no official release time.
[04:16] <aaron_> is it available for download at like midnight?
[04:16] <ex0a> Acid190: i'm not against nvidia, i've just been using ati for a long time
[04:16] <aaron_> rww, oh, ok
[04:16] <IdleOne> webBuilder: they might not be active, be patient :)(
[04:16] <rww> aaron_: No, some time during the period in which it is April 28th somewhere in the world
[04:16] <J697> I want to install an SSD for my computer (a 64 Gb SSD) Will this increase my performance for my computer?
[04:16] <Acid190> ex0a:once you use a newer nvidia card, you may like what you can do. Is there Cuda for ATI?
[04:16] <aaron_> rww, yeah, true, wasnt thinkin about timezones
[04:17] <leapy0yo> can someone figure out how to write a script so that I order an amazon order, but it is not placed and ordered and charged until sometime next month, when I won't be here?
[04:17] <aaron_> rww, so it could technically be the 27th or 29th for some
[04:17] <ex0a> Acid190: i think there's an equivalent
[04:17] <rww> aaron_: yes
[04:17] <IdleOne> leapy0yo: #bash maybe
[04:18] <ActionParsnip> J697: yes
[04:18] <ActionParsnip> J697: the access times are significantly less with SSD storage
[04:18] <cowslammer> what is SSD?
[04:19] <ActionParsnip> cowslammer: solid state drive
[04:19] <J697> ActionParsnip, can it increase game performance too? My computer sucks when it comes to gaming
[04:19] <J697> Will it be noticable is my main question
[04:19] <ActionParsnip> J697: only loading times, actual 3D performance is governed by ram, cpu and mainly gpu
[04:19] <ZykoticK9> J697, a faster graphics card will do a lot more to improve gaming performance (but an SSD might help too)
[04:20] <J697> ZykoticK9, I don't mean to sound stupid, but I can change my graphics card in my computer can
[04:20] <J697> *can't i?
[04:20] <IdleOne> J697: yes, you can
[04:20] <Acid190> webBuilder: try this and then i'll stop, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=400599     last post on the page
[04:20] <ZykoticK9> J697, most likely - depends
[04:21] <webBuilder> thank you Acid190
[04:21] <J697> Well, my computers specs are just terrible
[04:21] <webBuilder> this what I found if some one is looking
[04:21] <ActionParsnip> J697: if its a laptop then probably not, if its a standard desktop then yes

[04:21] <webBuilder> hope it help
[04:21] <IdleOne> webBuilder: good to know.
[04:22] <ActionParsnip> J697: what make and model?

[04:26] <chelz> Macer: their mailing list would be the best place to get help for that. but someone might be able to help here.
[04:26] <Acid190> wow, 64mb of dedicated
[04:26] <Acid190> nice
[04:26] <Acid190> Now, I understand
[04:27] <Macer> chelz: ive been looking
[04:27] <Macer> cant find any information
[04:27] <chelz> Macer: i mean emailing the mailing list with your issue
[04:29] <Dwade09> im trying to mount an iso image i made and i keep getting mount: you must specify the filesystem type , i type mount -o loop soso.iso /mnt/disk and i know /mnt/disk exists because i created it so i could mount my iso's in it. and it works with others but not this one.
[04:29] <J697> ActionParsnip, Ok before I go out and get a SSD, I usually don't use that much space so 64 Gb would be plenty for me. Will I really see an increase in performance (Ubuntu 10.10)? I mean, will I notice a huge differnece in boot times and load times and opening programs? Basically, is it worth it? I really could use a faster computer.
[04:29] <ActionParsnip> J697: with apps loading and boot time, yes
[04:30] <chelz> Dwade09: file soso.iso
[04:30] <chelz> J697: ssds change everything
[04:30] <J697> ActionParsnip, ok, thanks I'll be getting mine soon then :)
[04:31] <J697> One last thing, will I have to re install my OS on this new SSD? I am thinking I would have too, but just want to be 100% sure
[04:31] <ActionParsnip> J697: yes if you want to boot ubuntu off it
[04:31] <chelz> J697: you can copy your current install over i think
[04:31] <J697> Also, any computer is compatable with SSD right?
[04:32] <J697> Do I have to get a certain type?
[04:32] <IcarianHeights> 1.8" 2.5" or 3.5"
[04:32] <ActionParsnip> J697: as long as you have SATA ports and not only PATA then you are ok
[04:33] <Macer> what is the ubuntu syntax for zfs create?
[04:33] <ActionParsnip> J697: it currently has a 250GB 5400rpm SATA so you should be ok
[04:33] <Macer> the man page is rather vague about how it is done
[04:33] <J697> Ok then, thanks
[04:33] <Acid190> ActionParsnip:what ssd might you recommend? any will do?
[04:34] <IcarianHeights> intel
[04:34] <Acid190> J697:if you want to speed up but save money, then get a 7200rpm 16mb cache hdd of some kind
[04:36] <chelz> Macer: ubuntu doesn't ship with zfs support, so that would be specific to the project you got your tools from. i guess osol in your case
[04:36] <Laggg> how do i get one of my HDDs to mount at startup?
[04:37] <Soul_travel333> I have Acetone and Brasero installed, is there a way I can burn a 4 gig iso of my BSD installation disc to 700mb disc and be able to use the disc for install still?
[04:37] <ActionParsnip> Acid190: not sure, i've not researched into them much
[04:37] <ActionParsnip> Laggg: you can't mount drives
[04:37] <Laggg> say whatttt?
[04:37] <ActionParsnip> Laggg: you mount partitions
[04:37] <ActionParsnip> !fstab | Laggg
[04:37] <Laggg> well, i have a win7 HDD and it has all the music on it
[04:37] <Arthursgf> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[04:38] <ActionParsnip> Laggg: yes it is a drive with a sinmg ntfs partition taking 100% of the space
[04:38] <Laggg> indeed
[04:38] <Acid190> Laggg: daemon tools?
[04:38] <Laggg> how do i get it to mount at startup?
[04:38] <Laggg> i have rhythymbox starting at login
[04:38] <ActionParsnip> Laggg: add it in /etc/fstab in the appropriate way is one option
[04:38] <Laggg> and i want it to load all the music from this one drive
[04:38] <Souperman> Laggg, read the links that where pointed to you
[04:39] <Arthursgf> >>>>  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions <<<<
[04:39] <Soul_travel333> anyone know how to burn a 4 gig installation ISO to 700mb and still run the an install?
[04:39] <Soul_travel333> 700mb disc*
[04:39] <Souperman> :/
[04:39] <Arthursgf> impossible
[04:39] <chelz> Soul_travel333: doesn't work like that. if they don't have 700MB installs then you're kind of out of luck
[04:40] <Acid190> Soul_travel333:are you installing knoppix or something?
[04:40] <chelz> Soul_travel333: if you have a usb stick that's 4GB or bigger you can use that
[04:40] <Soul_travel333> I am trying to install PC-BSD on my other computer
[04:40] <Soul_travel333> USB! thats it!.... how do I that?
[04:40] <chelz> Soul_travel333: unetbootin
[04:40] <Soul_travel333> I am on Lucid, just fyi
[04:41] <Soul_travel333> thanks chelz and everyone else!
[04:41] <Soul_travel333> great help!
[04:41] <chelz> Soul_travel333: also http://trac.pcbsd.org/wiki/UsbFatBoot
[04:41] <chelz> Soul_travel333: but in the future, go to the pcbsd people for pcbsd support
[04:41] <leapy0yo> how do I grep so it greps all fiels and going about directories too
[04:42] <chelz> Soul_travel333: actually pcbsd seems to release usb image,s so use those, not unetbootin
[04:42] <chelz> leapy0yo: -r
[04:42] <Soul_travel333> well no, this Linux too... I am on Ubuntu trying to learn how to burn a BSD disc.... they woundn't tell me to to ask Ubuntu people lol, js
[04:42] <chelz> leapy0yo: man grep
[04:42] <taglass> http://wiki.pcbsd.org/index.php/Burning_the_installation_DVD#Writing_an_IMG_File_to_Flash_Media
[04:42] <chelz> Soul_travel333: taglass's link
[04:43] <ActionParsnip> Soul_travel333: MD5 test the ISO, then run your burning app and open the image file, should be ok
[04:43] <Soul_travel333> coolio, thanks everyone
[04:43] <yi`zhi> i'm sure it's a dead horse. but what's up with vlc these days?
[04:43] <ActionParsnip> leapy0yo: grep -R text /path/to/folder
[04:43] <ActionParsnip> yi`zhi: in what way?
[04:43] <leapy0yo> sabnzbd is in many rc?.d files, how do i take that off? i don't want it to start at boot
[04:43] <yi`zhi> audio just cuts off. and not even skipping like some people describe it in the forums
[04:43] <ActionParsnip> yi`zhi: the question is so bare its near worthless
[04:43] <ActionParsnip> yi`zhi: which version? and which release of ubuntu?
[04:44] <yi`zhi> 1.1.4 and i'm using ubuntu 10.10
[04:44] <yi`zhi> i tried this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9948061&postcount=2 and still doesn't work
[04:44] <Souperman> it works fine here, using it to listen internet radios and avi video everyday
[04:45] <yi`zhi> the audio is fine in the beginning. subtitles work and everything. but then somewhere in the middle it'll just cut
[04:45] <yi`zhi> also, i'm using a usb headset
[04:45] <yi`zhi> and i'm using pulseaudio because last year that was the thing for getting this headset to work
[04:45] <kill_joy> hello, everyone
[04:45] <yi`zhi> unless i can do away with pulseaudio and still use the headset. maybe that'll help?
[04:45] <ActionParsnip> yi`zhi: when it cuts, run:  dmesg | tail   it may give clues. You could try a later version of vlc via ppa. vlc is up to 1.1.9 so you could try one of the versions between or up to that
[04:46] <yi`zhi> oh wow
[04:46]  * kill_joy waves
[04:47] <leapy0yo> I want to keep the init.d file of sabnzbd , but I don't want it to start at boot..how do i do that?
[04:47] <Arthursgf> I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 on  Acer Aspire 5551 notebook and for some reason Ubuntu does not want to install the Broadcom STA Wireless driver comes back with an error Sorry installation of this driver falied please look at the log file for details
[04:47] <Arthursgf> /var/log/jockey.log
[04:47] <Arthursgf> when i use the 32bits version works fine, but now that i installed the 64bits version don't work anymore...
[04:47] <Arthursgf> There's a way that i download i install manually? (i'm on windows7 now)
[04:47] <FloodBot1> Arthursgf: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:48] <yi`zhi> my i paste the output of my "dmesg | tail"?
[04:49] <yi`zhi> *may even
[04:49] <rww> !pastebin
[04:49] <yi`zhi> i hit enter when the audio cut off
[04:49] <kaatta> hey guys, i am trying to boot ubuntu live CD on a machine that needs a broadcom driver for the wireless. i have downloaded the wireless driver as a .tar.gz... how can i install that driver on the other machine from the .tar.gz file?
[04:50] <yi`zhi> thanks.
[04:50] <yi`zhi> here's the output less than 3 seconds after audio cut off: http://paste.ubuntu.com/599064/
[04:50] <ActionParsnip> !broadcom | kaatta shows how you can use the files on the live CD
[04:51] <ActionParsnip> yi`zhi: do other media players do the same?
[04:51] <yi`zhi> mmm
[04:51] <yi`zhi> there's some slight hiccup in gnome and mplayer but they work fine
[04:51] <yi`zhi> but they don't handle subtitles as well as vlc
[04:52] <ActionParsnip> yi`zhi: try: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/vlc-1-1-7-released-and-ubuntu-ppa-installation-instructions-included.html
[04:52] <yi`zhi> thanks ActionParsnip
[04:52] <tsm_ice9> Hello... anyone have any luck getting libmotif3 to work in natty by chance?
[04:53] <tsm_ice9> or do I need to go to the +1 room for that?
[04:54] <phonex01> hi guys i update my ubuntu and i lost wireless drivers !!!
[04:54] <phonex01> i cant deal with wireless now !
[04:54] <ActionParsnip> tsm_ice9: natty is offtopic here
[04:54] <Arthursgf> http://paste.ubuntu.com/599065/plain/ <<wirelles driver problem at 64bits
[04:54] <tsm_ice9> ok thanks ActionParsnip
[04:54] <ActionParsnip> tsm_ice9: ask in #ubuntu+1
[04:55] <phonex01> so guys what i have to do ?
[04:55] <Internat> natty is due out any day now right?
[04:55] <ActionParsnip> phonex01: run:   sudo lshw -C network      to find out the chip and websearch. You can also boot to the original kernel and run:  dmesg | less    and see the module being loaded, to see if its being loaded in the newer kernel
[04:56] <ActionParsnip> Internat: 28th
[04:56] <Internat> cool cool
[04:56] <Internat> dont suppiose you happen to know if there is a list of whats new/updated in natty?
[04:56] <piyushmishra> I am having trouble with x conf settings. my monitor seems to have gone crazy after I switched from a 22inch 1920*1080 to a 1360*768
[04:57] <litropy> Hi, peeps - I
[04:57] <tsm_ice9> Internat, out of the box the desktop environment is completely changed *grumble*
[04:58] <litropy> Hi, peeps - I'm just looking to set up filesharing between the two computers on my network, both runnung ubuntu.
[04:59] <bastidrazor> Internat: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NattyNarwhal/TechnicalOverview may help
[05:00] <knightrage> hey guys. so i'm having problems getting my internal sound to work... it used to work just fine, and now i'm not sure whats going on. i recently did a kernel upgrade but i dont see how that would affect it, as i've been using the generic ubuntu kernel from the repos. "aplay -l" lists the card and its 3 devices (analog, digital, and hdmi) ... and i'm only trying to use the analog device. when i use alsamixer, it only shows the
[05:00] <knightrage>  HDMI device when i hit F6. thoughts?
[05:00] <leapy0yo> how do i make it so that sabnzbd does not start at boot? i want to keep my init.d script so i can do it manually
[05:01] <ActionParsnip> litropy: you can install openssh-server and use sshfs between or you can install samba and then use nautilus to share folders
[05:01] <ActionParsnip> !boot | leapy0yo
[05:02] <ActionParsnip> tsm_ice9: you can boot to original desktop and it will look as it has in the past, you aren't forced to use unity
[05:03] <tsm_ice9> ActionParsnip, yes I know... fair enough :)
[05:04] <tsm_ice9> as long as they don't take that option away, I'm happy
[05:04] <Acid190> piyushmishra:you get an answer yet?
[05:05] <yi`zhi> ActionParsnip, audio is now skipping
[05:05] <yi`zhi> and now it's pretty much completely off. except for minor hiccups of sound
[05:05] <Acid190> oh, he's gone
[05:05] <ActionParsnip> yi`zhi: ok if you remove the ppa and remove then reinstall vlc it will be the older version
[05:06] <yi`zhi> and even if i use the older version, the same thing happens. is it possible the problem isn't vlc itself?
[05:06] <ActionParsnip> yi`zhi: possibly, log a bug
[05:07] <yi`zhi> how do i go about doing that?
[05:08] <litropy> rebbot!
[05:08] <Laggg> hey uh i have black screen whenever i try to go into windows.... help?
[05:08] <litropy> oh, and reboot!, too.

[05:12] <hanasaki> LAcan:  for just html I don't.. if it's a vm.. I do..
[05:13] <LAcan> hanasaki, roger that
[05:13] <swabedor> hi guys has anyone here experience error 17 in grub 2?  I tried searching for fix in forums all I get points to the legacy grub
[05:13] <hanasaki> LAcan:  suggestions?
[05:13] <Auzy> swabedor: I got that a few times.. If you get the answer, tell me :/
[05:13] <LAcan> hanasaki, none for ubuntu specific, i dont think youll fine many/any
[05:13] <LAcan> swabedor, likely a ocnflict between grub and brub2 what OS's u have on there?
[05:13] <swabedor> @auzy did you get to fix it?
[05:13] <Auzy> that reminds me why I gave up on Ubuntu last time
[05:14] <Auzy> Nope.. Gave up
[05:14] <swabedor> win7 and ubuntu 10.10
[05:14] <hanasaki> LAcan:  for just static? for including postgress?
[05:14] <Auzy> It was on my desktop with multiple drives
[05:14] <hanasaki> LAcan:  prefer usa servers
[05:14] <mknarr> anyone know how raid and ubuntu stand atm ?
[05:14] <DerMicha> is ther a posibillity to "undo" if i done a tar xfv .../rootfs.tar -C /
[05:15] <hanasaki> mknarr:  I use mdadm for software raid.. its fine
[05:15] <LAcan> hanasaki, jumpline.com... theres a coupon for a free year, otherwise u can get it fro 2.95$ a month if you go halfway thru the signup then back out (its $3.50 a month otherwise)... the hosts ping the fastest for me of any cheap host
[05:15] <en1gma> can anyone tell me how to test that BT headset....it says im paired
[05:15] <LAcan> hanasaki, and tech support answers/fixes in under 20 minutes usually
[05:15] <hanasaki> thanks LAcan

[05:16] <en1gma> jesus does anyone know anything about BT
[05:16] <ashmew2> Hoi , how do i check if my hard disk is causing random restarts of my computer ? Thanks !
[05:16] <LAcan> en1gma, uhm, skype?
[05:16] <ubuntu_> logitech?
[05:16] <LAcan> ashmew2, under ubutnu?
[05:16] <ashmew2> LAcan: yes
[05:17] <swabedor> is this ubuntu specific error?
[05:17] <en1gma> no its a plantronix headset but it says its paired in the BT manager
[05:17] <en1gma> just dont show in the sound manager thing
[05:17] <aaron> does anyone know how to enable zoom feature in unity?
[05:17] <LAcan> ashmew2, u need to check the disk for errors, but i dont member how to doit... someone else must know
[05:17] <LAcan> en1gma, skype.
[05:17] <en1gma> ok gonna install it now...thanks
[05:18] <ashmew2> LAcan: you mean it can be a fragmentation (obviously , not windows , but something similar) , issue ? or is the hard disk dying ?
[05:18] <LAcan> ashmew2, or a bad sector or whatever... check your "/lost+found" folder
[05:18] <hanasaki> LAcan:  1and1 looks cheaper
[05:18] <ecinxi> how do I fix grub. I can't boot to windows or linux and i'm booted to a liveUSB. albeit a different version of ubuntu than what was originally installed
[05:18] <LAcan> hanasaki, they dont ping as well for me.. just test it from the console and see what kinda response rate u get
[05:19] <aaron_wayne> LAcan, check for bad sectors with the disk utility
[05:19] <hanasaki> true
[05:19] <swabedor> @ecinxi getting same error
[05:19] <LAcan> ashmew2, there u go "Disk Utility" somewhere in your system menu
[05:19] <LAcan> hanasaki, if you look real hard u can find the coupon for afree year
[05:19] <aaron_wayne> system>administration>disk utility
[05:20] <LAcan> lemme see if i have it in my mail somewhere
[05:20] <Macer> i am curious. how good is nvraid support nowadays?
[05:20] <aaron_wayne> LAcan, system>administration>disk utility
[05:20] <ashmew2> aaron_wayne : Thanks
[05:20] <ashmew2> LAcan: thanks
[05:20] <aaron_wayne> ashmew2, yuo
[05:20] <ActionParsnip> Macer: do you mean fakeraid?
[05:20] <aaron_wayne> ashmew2, yup*
[05:20] <LAcan> hanasaki, ya i dont have it
[05:21] <ecinxi> swabedor, what error?
[05:21] <Macer> yes :)
[05:21] <hanasaki> LAcan: ??
[05:21] <aaron_wayne> ashmew2, u might have to have smartmon tools installed though, not sure
[05:21] <ashmew2> erm , is it check filesystem > ? if its that i cant do that
[05:21] <ashmew2> i installed smartmontools
[05:21] <ashmew2> guna do a smartctl -a /dev/sda
[05:21] <Macer> has the fakeraid stuff worked yet?
[05:21] <aaron_wayne> ashmew2, u should be good then
[05:22] <Macer> i couldnt really find anything past 2005 about it
[05:22] <Macer> i figured by now nvraid would work
[05:22] <Macer> or was it given up on?
[05:22] <aaron_wayne> so does anyone know about the zoom feature in unity?
[05:22] <ActionParsnip> Macer: it's usually ok. Settings up raid is part of the installation process
[05:23] <Macer> ActionParsnip: all i saw was md setup
[05:23] <ActionParsnip> Macer: as a cheap (but not very good solution) it's fine
[05:23] <Macer> does nvraid stuff pop up if it is enabled?
[05:24] <ashmew2> Can the random restarts be caused by a shortage of power supply to the hard disks or something ? How do i check for that ?
[05:24] <hanasaki> ashmew2:  more like maybe a "short" for real
[05:25] <TopRamen> I need help
[05:25] <franciel> Olá povo rsrs
[05:25] <ActionParsnip> Macer: i believe you will be able to set it up in the install steps, it doesn't really pop up. Its just an option
[05:25] <Macer> hm
[05:26] <Macer> maybe i will reinstall and try it
[05:26] <Macer> i dont know if you can set up md after the fact
[05:26] <ashmew2> hanasaki > erm how do i do that ?
[05:27] <ashmew2> i did a memtest and the RAM came out to be clean...so either the hard disks are dying or the system is overheating...how do i check for both ?
[05:28] <Macer> ah well.. i am going to start from scratch and put the card in jbod mode
[05:28] <Macer> and do straight zfs and see what happens
[05:29] <Macer> damn
[05:29] <Macer> guess not. this bios is still messed up
[05:29] <jpk> Hi all.  I recently changed swap partitions, and I'm having trouble getting hibernation to work again.  (Hardware changes that included more RAM meant my old one was too small to hibernate to.)  After changing to the larger swap partition, I can hibernate, but resume fails and it goes on with a normal boot.  I get roughly this on the console while booting: "swapon: /dev/sdb4: software suspend data detected. Rewriting the swap signature. / Invalidating stale
[05:30] <Captainkrtek> hello
[05:30] <Macer> when i put the areca in jbod i get conflicting luns :(
[05:30] <Captainkrtek> can someone please link me to documentation about becoming a mirror

[05:43] <nullkuhl> Captainkrtek: thx, does a shortcut have to end with .desktop extension ?

[05:45] <root> hi
[05:45] <iszak> I'm having difficulties understanding Bind9 is there any simpler solutions out there?
[05:45] <Captainkrtek> hello root :-)
[05:45] <root> yeah i'm quite original lol
[05:45] <iszak> lolowned
[05:46] <Captainkrtek> root hehe, anything we can help with?
[05:46] <Guest65215> waiiiiiiiit
[05:46] <iszak> Guest65215, looks like you're not in the sudoers list.
[05:46] <Guest65215> hmm, actually yeah :)
[05:46] <Guest65215> i'm a newb
[05:46] <Guest65215> *ducks*
[05:47] <Guest65215> trying to do a DDoS experiment
[05:47] <Guest65215> am curious.. would my web-host provider get mad?
[05:47] <rww> probably
[05:47] <Captainkrtek> Guest65215, yes...
[05:47] <Guest65215> i set up my own www.xyz.com
[05:47] <brewster> hello. I was having a problem earlier with nautilus. this problem prevented me from mounting removable media and entering the computer location. I googled this problem and a solution was renaming /usr/local to /usr/local.old. now I narrowed down the problem to four files in that folder but im afraid to move any of them back because when i moved them all at once i could not shut down normally
[05:47] <Guest65215> but if I run the experiment at 4 am or so?
[05:47] <Captainkrtek> Guest65215, It may slow down their gateway to the box
[05:47] <brewster> and i could not start up
[05:47] <Guest65215> it's a little internet company too
[05:48] <Captainkrtek> Guest65215, I'd advise against that
[05:48] <Guest65215> OK, I'll listen
[05:48] <brewster> they are files for libgio-2.0
[05:48] <Guest65215> funny thing tho, last weekend I tried LOIC on it
[05:48] <TopRamen> hdmedia or live?
[05:48] <brewster> does anyone know what files are safe to move back?
[05:48] <Guest65215> but when I look at my websites internet panel it doesn't show much activity
[05:49] <Captainkrtek> Guest65215, what are your intentions in this "test"
[05:49] <Guest65215> oh it's for my NetSec class
[05:49] <Captainkrtek> okay
[05:49] <Guest65215> a college course I'm in
[05:49] <Captainkrtek> well use your own local network
[05:49] <rww> !ot
[05:49] <Captainkrtek> using networks in which you lease hardware is grey area
[05:49] <Guest65215> hmm I tried to do that but my laptop's IP is the same as the desktop we have
[05:49] <shcherbak>  /ignore Guest65215
[05:50] <Captainkrtek> Guest65215, setup local static IPs
[05:50] <shcherbak> Sorry
[05:50] <Guest65215> ok, local static IPs
[05:50] <Guest65215> will google it
[05:50] <mon_> hi
[05:51] <Guest65215> so is any1 else accessing this chat thru backtrack?
[05:51] <TopRamen> hey what's the difference between 10.10 hdmedia and livr
[05:51] <TopRamen> live
[05:51] <Captainkrtek> Guest65215, System --> Preferences --> Network Connections --> (Select Network under name (eth0)) --> IPv4 Settings --> Method: Manual --> Fill out Addresses Table, DNS Servers, etc.
[05:51] <Macer> well
[05:52] <Guest65215> Wow thanks so much!
[05:52] <Macer> ill be damned.. ubuntu actually detected the nvraid
[05:52] <Macer> :)
[05:52] <Captainkrtek> no problem... PM me if you need any more help or have questions, don't want to clog up the channel
[05:52] <Macer> if this thing boots it will be a miracle :)
[05:53] <Macer> it has lun issues
[05:53] <Captainkrtek> Macer, nvraid = Nvidia Raid Array?
[05:53] <Macer> yes
[05:53] <TopRamen> well?
[05:53] <Captainkrtek> Macer, just was wonering
[05:53] <Captainkrtek> TopRamen, you using unetbootin?
[05:53] <TopRamen> yes
[05:53] <Macer> made a mirror with the nvraid and jbod my areca 8 port card to try to start everything from scratch
[05:53] <Captainkrtek> TopRamen, select the distro from the drop down or the disk iamge IDO, then select the usb drive under device, hit OK
[05:53] <Macer> with hopes that i can get zfs going on the areca side
[05:54] <Guest65215> Got it my friend, thanks a bunch! My CTS kicked in again so I'm takin a lil break
[05:54] <Macer> 8x1TB raidz
[05:54] <Captainkrtek> Macer, very cool :-)
[05:54] <Captainkrtek> wow
[05:54] <Macer> if it works i will be a very happy camper
[05:54] <Captainkrtek> Guest65215, no problem
[05:54] <Macer> but the bios has issues with the luns
[05:54] <Captainkrtek> Macer, I've always had issues with nvraid in general
[05:54] <Macer> putting the areca in jbod confuses the bios
[05:55] <Captainkrtek> yeah
[05:55] <Captainkrtek> what brand drives?
[05:55] <Macer> it isnt nvraid.. i am pretty sure it is either the areca card or the mboard
[05:55] <Macer> wd
[05:55] <Captainkrtek> nice
[05:55] <mknarr> Is there much along the lines of hardware raid support yet
[05:55] <Macer> i really want this to work
[05:55] <Captainkrtek> mknarr, I believe so
[05:55] <Macer> :) if i can keep all 10 drives in it.. it will make my day
[05:56] <Captainkrtek> Macer, Ill take any you don't want ;)
[05:56] <Macer> i wish ubuntu installed with zfs :(
[05:56] <Macer> so you can raidz from the installer
[05:56] <Macer> but even oi doesnt do that
[05:56] <Macer> solaris probably does :)
[05:57] <ActionParsnip> Macer: if you are serious about raid, get a raid card :)
[05:57] <Macer> i have one
[05:57] <Macer> :)
[05:57] <Macer> an areca 1120
[05:57] <dr_Willis> get a dozen
[05:57] <Jordan_U> Macer: It does support btrfs, though it's experimental.
[05:58] <Macer> pci-x heh
[05:58] <Macer> ftw
[05:58] <dr_Willis>  You dont hear much about btrfs lately.
[05:58] <Macer> ActionParsnip: but with large volumes it turns into a mess with lesser filesystem
[05:58] <ActionParsnip> Macer: 256Mb too, nice
[05:59] <Macer> yeah.. it is not a bad card
[05:59] <ActionParsnip> Macer: not bad at all, niice
[05:59] <Macer> but i want to use zfs
[05:59] <Macer> so i have it jbod now :)
[06:00] <Macer> if this doesnt work i guess i will just give up on zfs until it is a bit more mature on the linux side
[06:00] <Macer> but formatting an 8TB ext4.... :) that will take 2 days
[06:00] <Captainkrtek> lol
[06:01] <Captainkrtek> DoD wipe it ;)
[06:01] <Macer> well.. 7.. i would have to swap it back to hw raid mode
[06:01] <dr_Willis> Hmm. My 3TB dident take too long to format to ext4
[06:01] <Macer> Captainkrtek: i already wiped it
[06:01] <Macer> :)
[06:01] <Captainkrtek> hehe
[06:01] <Macer> it is a clean box now
[06:01] <Macer> shed a tear doing that
[06:01] <Macer> but i got what i really needed off it ... the rest i can get back
[06:02] <Macer> i just want zfs + ubuntu or debian
[06:02] <Macer> fbsd didnt like my system.. installer wouldnt connect to the network
[06:03] <Macer> i would have seriously loved fbsd on the box :)
[06:03] <BorrisDerson> .
[06:03] <Macer> too bad when i built it i went cheap on the cpus... 2x2 1.8GHz opterons
[06:04] <Macer> but 8GB of ram :)
[06:04] <ActionParsnip> Macer: sounds like a fine rig
[06:04] <Macer> it is a power gobbling whore.. but it gets the job done :)
[06:04] <dr_Willis>  almost big enough to run emacs with all the extras
[06:04] <Macer> dr_Willis: hahaha... almost ;)
[06:04] <IdleOne> !language
[06:05] <orengatling_> hi all
[06:06] <orengatling_> Help me pls! how to turn on "host+g" in virtual box if the guest OS - ubuntu&
[06:06] <orengatling_> ?
[06:06] <dr_Willis> host + G?
[06:07] <orengatling_> yes? customize the size of the guest display
[06:07] <orengatling_> host system is Win 7=)
[06:07] <dr_Willis> vbox has an instal guest addations menu item. or i think theres often packages for the guest os's to do it
[06:08] <Macer> fingers crossed
[06:08] <Macer> :)
[06:08] <dr_Willis> !vbox
[06:08] <Macer> cmon ubuntu!
[06:08] <Macer> nope :(
[06:09] <Macer> luns are just messed up when in jbod
[06:09] <dr_Willis> i alwyas keep my drive layout simple. : ) had too many headchaes with raids and other things.
[06:09] <Macer> i dont get it. thought the whole point of scsi was to fix these sorts of proble s
[06:10] <UbuntuN00b>  hey all i having a problem with my ubuntu. everytime i start my ubuntu it does a scandisk, which it seems to complete. then it switches to a black terminal screen with an solid underscore in the top left corner. it just sits there. eventually i hit the power see the ubuntu splash scree the maching shuts down. I hit the power button then it boots fine
[06:11] <Macer> i have 2 of the same bus entries in my bios
[06:11]  * Macer facepalms
[06:11]  * dr_Willis facebooks
[06:12] <Macer> and no nvraid in the boot list. ugh.. it is obscured by this areca tomfoolery
[06:12] <Macer> nope. ugh.
[06:12] <ActionParsnip> UbuntuN00b: Hard powering down can damage your hardware. I suggest you boot to liveCD and do a manual fsck with better options. You may also benefit from adding the boot option: nomodeset
[06:12] <Macer> ah well. no zfs for me. guess i will go the traditional raid route
[06:13] <UbuntuN00b> ok
[06:13] <ActionParsnip> UbuntuN00b: which release is this for?
[06:14] <UbuntuN00b> latest stable ubuntu  10.10
[06:14] <litropy> in Network, I can see ThisComputer on OtherBox, but I can't see OtherBox on ThisComputer. Help?
[06:14] <litropy> samba is installed
[06:14] <litropy> on both
[06:14] <dr_Willis> try enterning the full path to a share in the file manager. ie:
[06:15] <dr_Willis> smb://servername/sharename  or smb://ip#/sharename
[06:15] <Macer> hope this raid card is smart enough to initialize after reboot
[06:15] <ActionParsnip> litropy: if you press ALT+F2 and run:  smb://host/share   (replace host with the other hostname and replace share with the actual share name)
[06:15] <phonex01> hi guys how can i update my ubutnu 10.10 into 11.04 !!

[06:19] <Will_> I can't connect to the Internet with Ubuntu running
[06:19] <Will_> I run it from a USB
[06:20] <iAmerikan> Will_ -- has it worked before, or not?
[06:20] <phonex01> i had updated the kernel
[06:20] <Will_> No
[06:20] <litropy> Macer, ActionParsnip: Failed to mount Windows share
[06:20] <sev7en> see the setiings of auto etho
[06:20] <Will_> Neither does the Ethernet works...:(
[06:20] <eckirchn> phonex01:  does it work if you go back to the old kernel (select the old kernel under your grub boot menu?)
[06:20] <iAmerikan> Will_ -- ethernet doesn't work?
[06:20] <phonex01> and when i run update i have msg says you ca not run
[06:20] <ActionParsnip> phonex01: install linux-firmware package, it may help. Or seach online for the file it is requesting and put it in /lib/firmware
[06:20] <Will_> No id doesn't
[06:20] <phonex01> you can not install all updates
[06:21] <eckirchn> phonex01: I have to be honest, i am a fedora user... ubuntu is a bit different..
[06:21] <Inumedia> Is there a hotkey for switching desktops in Maverick?
[06:21] <phonex01> and it says that i have to make "partial update" !
[06:21] <phonex01> or partial upgrade !
[06:21] <iAmerikan> Will_ -- do you know what the terminal is
[06:21] <Macer> well
[06:22] <phonex01> yes i know it !
[06:22] <Macer> i have never made huge volumes with parted
[06:22] <phonex01> so what people ?
[06:22] <Will_> How you send the messages like that?
[06:22] <Macer> is there something a little more ncurses i can use?
[06:22] <phonex01> i can not even make any update now
[06:22] <Will_> No I don't know
[06:22] <phonex01> i have error msg says that you can not do that and ou have to make partial update
[06:23] <Rehan> is there any way to make the 10.10 login screen the same as the desktop wallpaper?

[06:24] <phonex01> and ubuntu are installing some missing packages
[06:25] <nit-wit> Rehan, do yopu have ubuntu tweak
[06:25] <Rehan> nit-wit: yes but it doesn't let me change the login settings for some reason, its all greyed out
[06:25] <phonex01> you have ti click "unlock!"
[06:25] <Rehan> i don't see an unlock! :(
[06:26] <Will_> Does anyone know how to fix Ubuntu's network connection problem?
[06:26] <Rehan> oh nevermind!
[06:26] <Rehan> i didn't realize i had to scroll down

[06:26] <nit-wit> Rehan, mine looks greyed but opens nautilus
[06:26] <Gunnar> how do i debug a stalled boot on ubuntu?
[06:27] <nit-wit> Gunnar, you can't get in
[06:27] <Will_> How do I fix Ubuntu's network connection problem?
[06:27] <phonex01> is there any Ubuntu package for flue !
[06:27] <phonex01> hahahhaah

[06:27] <Captainkrtek> hey guys
[06:27] <Gunnar> nit-wit: no hdd activity, just installed ubuntu
[06:27] <Rehan> nit-wit: got it working. Are you handy with scripts in ubuntu?
[06:27] <Captainkrtek> anyone have the link for applying to be a mirror?
[06:27] <nit-wit> Rehan, not really
[06:28] <iAmerikan> You'd think #ubuntu would be pretty fast to respond to the more novice users..
[06:28] <iAmerikan> Will_ -- so, what computer you on?
[06:28] <Captainkrtek> anyone have the link for applying to be a mirror?
[06:28] <Will_> PC, how do you send the message straight to me?
[06:28] <Rehan> nit-wit: oh ok...i was wondering if there's a way to have a script that runs (on logout) that automatically makes the login screen wallpaper the same as the desktop wallpaper (so that when I change desktop wallpapers, the login screen matches).
[06:28] <Captainkrtek> nvm
[06:29] <JamezQ> Will_: Use /msg <user> <msg>
[06:29] <nit-wit> Gunnar, any causes for a failing boot besides fresh install is this the first boot in?
[06:29] <iAmerikan> Will_ -- What model of computer is it? look around the case
[06:29] <nit-wit> Rehan, not sure about that sorry
[06:29] <Gunnar> nit-wit: fresh install only one hdd just formatted entire drive with ubuntu, installed updates during install
[06:29] <ruslan_osmanov> hi. could you help me with empathy, pls.. I've a bad internet connection at office. And every day empathy fails connecting: Network error. What should I do?
[06:30] <nit-wit> Gunnar, are you sure your not having a graphic driver failure or a actual boot in problem
[06:31] <Auzy> ruslan_osmanov: you using MSN?
[06:31] <Gunnar> nit-wit: the screen shows the ubuntu boot screen just fine, the dots fill up once and stay full
[06:31] <ruslan_osmanov> no. just gmail
[06:31] <Gunnar> nit-wit: is there no hidden boot debug console r some?
[06:31] <nit-wit> Gunnar, has it booted to the desktop since you installed?
[06:31] <Gunnar> nit-wit: no
[06:31] <Auzy> Can anyone connect using Google talk ruslan_osmanov in that office?
[06:32] <Auzy> it might be blocked on the firewall

[06:35] <nit-wit> Gunnar, after logging in
[06:35] <mick_laptop> hi everyone, can someone tell me what logs to look at when a box randomly hangs? I d/l an iso (from a bridged connection) and everytime @35 seconds left - my box hangs
[06:35] <Gunnar> nit-wit: fatal server error: no screens found
[06:35] <Gunnar> lol
[06:35] <mick_laptop> x is unresponsive and I hear my cpu fan go nuts
[06:35] <mick_laptop> i can't even move my mouse
[06:35] <nit-wit> Gunnar, after you logged in
[06:36] <ruslan_osmanov> Auzy, thx. I'll try it
[06:36] <Gunnar> nit-wit: above that i can see failed to load module nvidia module does not exist
[06:37] <Wamphyri> i keep getting a strange error kernel_thread_helper+0x6/0x10
[06:37] <Wamphyri> any suggestions how to get past this to install??
[06:37] <Gunnar> nit-wit: should i install nvidia-current?
[06:37] <phonex01> what does this error mean ???

[06:38] <nit-wit> Gunnar, I'm not real familiar with loading graphic drivers hopefully others are on here.
[06:38] <Gunnar> i'll try it
[06:38] <nit-wit> Gunnar, its a frsh install you can hardly break it.:)
[06:39] <ActionParsnip> phonex01: are you sure you aren't running debian?
[06:39] <phonex01> im using ubuntu !
[06:40] <ActionParsnip> phonex01: sudo apt-get install linux-firmware
[06:40] <Gunnar> nit-wit: it worked, got login screen now !
[06:41] <nit-wit> Gunnar, cool
[06:41] <phonex01> linux-firmware is already the newest version.
[06:41] <phonex01>  !
[06:41] <litropy> still stumped.
[06:41] <Gunnar> installed nvidia-current, rebooted, works, yay :D
[06:41] <ActionParsnip> phonex01: sudo apt-get --reinstall install linux-firmware
[06:41] <litropy> Ubuntu 10.10. Samba installed on both computers. in Network, I can see ThisComputer on OtherBox, but I can't see OtherBox on ThisComputer. Help?
[06:41] <litropy> I have folders set to share
[06:42] <phonex01> Reinstallation of linux-firmware is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
[06:42] <litropy> they have entries in samba control panel for rw
[06:42] <ActionParsnip> litropy: can you ping the systems between each other?
[06:42] <mick_laptop> ActionParsnip: why not just dpkg-reconfigure linux-firmware?
[06:42] <ActionParsnip> mick_laptop: either is fine
[06:43] <Wamphyri> i keep getting a strange error kernel_thread_helper+0x6/0x10 , any suggestions how to get past this to install??
[06:44] <litropy> ActionParsnip, yes.
[06:45] <ruslan_osmanov> Auzy, still the same problem. But now it says: No reason given
[06:45] <litropy> ActionParsnip, #samba is silent.
[06:45] <mick_laptop> litropy: might sound a bit stupid, but are both running samba? (not just installed, but verify w/ ps)
[06:45] <mick_laptop> litropy: also check iptables
[06:45] <litropy> mick_laptop, how do I verify?
[06:46] <Gunnar> nit-wit: thanks for the help :)
[06:46] <mick_laptop> run "ps -ax" on both boxes and make sure the appropriate apps are running (I forget, there are 3)
[06:47] <mick_laptop> one for cifs, another for wins and another for something else
[06:47] <mick_laptop> oh yeah, smb
[06:47] <mick_laptop> :)
[06:48] <hans1> i just played a game that went fullscreen, and when it quit my resolution is all messed up, i can't use my desktop
[06:48] <nit-wit> Gunnar, no problem  think that was team work.
[06:48] <nit-wit> *I
[06:48] <mick_laptop> hmm, really interesting whatever i do (download w/ ff or wget) - when I hit 32 seconds left - my box crashes
[06:48] <hans1> how can i fix this without rebooting?
[06:48] <mick_laptop> I wonder if it is a bug in the tcp/ip stack... hmmm
[06:48] <JamezQ> hans1: Try alt-f4
[06:49] <Wamphyri> hans1 ctrl, alt, backspace all same time
[06:49] <Wamphyri> or
[06:49] <Wamphyri> ctrl alt +
[06:49] <JamezQ> hans1: Then type top, and find the program and kill it
[06:49] <mick_laptop> Wamphyri: ctrl alt backspace hasn't worked in quite a few revisions -- they remapped the keys
[06:49] <mick_laptop> no f---ing idea why
[06:49] <JamezQ> was going to say that
[06:49] <hans1> JamesQ i already exited the program, but my screen resolution is wrong
[06:49] <JamezQ> you can turn it on pretty easily
[06:49] <mick_laptop> that always annoyed the hell out of me
[06:49] <Wamphyri> been a while lol
[06:49] <ActionParsnip> mick_laptop: you can re-enable it in keyboard settings...
[06:49] <Wamphyri> ctrl alt + still works?
[06:50] <hans1> Wamphyri: what's that?
[06:50] <Te3-BloodyIron> i'm trying to setup a NFS share and I keep getting "permission denied" when i try to mount it, and after reading multiple howto's i can't figure out why.
[06:50] <mick_laptop> ActionParsnip: yeah, but I always forget on a new install
[06:50] <Te3-BloodyIron> is anyone available that is familiar with this?
[06:50] <Wamphyri> hans1 adjusts your desktop resolutions
[06:50] <JamezQ> hans1: There should be a program to change monitor resolution.
[06:50] <JamezQ> hans1: Look for Xrandr on google if you want to do it from the cli
[06:50] <hans1> Wamphyri: no, doesn't do anything
[06:51] <JamezQ> hans1: Try xrandr
[06:51] <ActionParsnip> mick_laptop: apparently people were pressing it and losing work or something, no idea why (it's worked for the past forever though)
[06:51] <JamezQ> I used to do that for the same reason you do
[06:51] <hans1> JamezQ: yeah, the problem is the resolution is so screwed up i can't use a gui program
[06:51] <Wamphyri> hans1 using + on the key pad?
[06:51] <hans1> i am in virtual terminal
[06:51] <hans1> Wamphyri: laptop, no keypad
[06:51] <litropy> mick_laptop, smbd -F running on both.
[06:51] <Wamphyri> ah ok lol
[06:52] <mick_laptop> litropy: can you connect to the port?
[06:52] <Te3-BloodyIron> is anyone here able to help me with a nfs problem?
[06:52] <mick_laptop> litropy: check /etc/services as I don't remember the three ports for samba
[06:53] <Wamphyri> i keep getting a strange error kernel_thread_helper+0x6/0x10 , any suggestions how to get past this to install??
[06:53] <mick_laptop> litropy: another thing, tail your logs
[06:53] <ActionParsnip> Wamphyri: what are you installing?
[06:53] <JamezQ> hans1: again, try xrandr, it should work
[06:54] <Wamphyri> ActionParsnip ubuntu 10.10 x64
[06:55] <tzq> ..........................
[06:55] <ActionParsnip> Wamphyri: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[06:55] <shimabuku> I've just installed the latest ubuntu on my laptop and got LAMP successfully running on it. How can I hide the extensions when going to a URL for example: http://localhost/sample/
[06:55] <Wamphyri> hmmm no didn't think i would need to since it was leeched from ubuntu.org
[06:56] <ActionParsnip> Wamphyri: that is irrelevant, the data can still be garbaged in transit
[06:56] <iAmerikan> Wamphyri -- unless you torrent it.
[06:56] <ActionParsnip> Wamphyri: did you use torrents?
[06:56] <Wamphyri> i think so not 100% sure i grabbed it a while ago
[06:56] <mick_laptop> shimabuku: are you asking about clean urls? (like for seo type stuff) or are you asking about showing drectories or are you saying that you don't want (presumably) .php to show up as your extension
[06:57] <ActionParsnip> Wamphyri: then you have no sure way of knowing the data is healthy
[06:57] <iAmerikan> Wamphyri -- md5sum it, it takes 20 seconds (guess)
[06:57] <cheshire_fox> How would I figure out how to get the gnome-power-manager applet to actually tell me how much battery life I have in hours?  If I click the applet in the notification area, all I get is "Laptop Battery (estimating)".  It's been like this since 10.04.  Before that I didn't have the laptop.
[06:57] <Wamphyri> how you md5 it?
[06:57] <iAmerikan> shimabuku -- what do you mean? And this may not be appropriate for this channel
[06:57] <ActionParsnip> !md5
[06:57] <LAcan> cheshire_fox, nothing can tell you exactly how much time you have left.
[06:57] <Wamphyri> i just downloaded the alt cd
[06:58] <thebuntutweaker> cheshire_fox: maybe, gnome-power-manager cant detect your battery properly
[06:58] <shimabuku> iAmerikan: first time in IRC, what channel should I join?
[06:58] <Wamphyri> if done by torrent you don't need to md5 it?
[06:58] <cheshire_fox> LAcan: I never said exactly.  And I know this, as the amount of draw on the battery changes depending on what I'm doing
[06:58] <ninjafish> Wamphyri: md5sum <file>
[06:58] <ActionParsnip> Wamphyri: torrents have a LOT of error checking so MD5 isn't needed
[06:58] <iAmerikan> shimabuku -- depends, what do you mean 'hide the extensions'
[06:58] <thebuntutweaker> shimabuku: you already joined this channel
[06:58] <LAcan> cheshire_fox, so do the math in your head, youl have a better prediction
[06:58] <thebuntutweaker> shimabuku: come here for finding answers to all your problems regarding ubuntu
[06:59] <Wamphyri> ActionParsnip ty
[06:59] <iAmerikan> thebuntutweaker -- I believe he wants to do something w/ apache.
[06:59] <cheshire_fox> thebuntutweaker: got a way of seeing if its actually g-p-m (abbreviated) and not apci?
[06:59] <shimabuku> not really looking to achieve seo looking urls, just wanted to know if it is possible to achieve something like http://localhost/sample/ rather than http://localhost/sample/index.html
[06:59] <JamezQ> shimabuku: To "hide" extensions, use folders, not files. use a new folder for every page and then a index file
[06:59] <ecinxi> im having trouble booting
[07:00] <mah454> I have problem with gnome ...
[07:00] <ecinxi> I hit M for manual mounting
[07:00] <LAcan> ecinxi, what kinda trobule?
[07:00] <cheshire_fox> LAcan: That isn't just simple math.  I know the current charge of the battery, but what I don't know is the current draw.  And like I said earlier, that changes on what I'm doing
[07:00] <iAmerikan> shimabuku -- you can do that
[07:00] <JamezQ> shimabuku: Then you will automatically see sample/ and not sample/index.html
[07:00] <ecinxi> what do I type to boot
[07:00] <iAmerikan> shimabuku -- already
[07:00] <mah454> my gnome session automatic exit ... !
[07:00] <mah454> I need gnome session log ...
[07:00] <ecinxi> LAcan, it seems my gnome is broken. I've tried to reinstall it to no avail
[07:00] <ecinxi> i can't boot to nix nor windows
[07:00] <LAcan> cheshire_fox, oh but it is. Use your computer for tn minutes, see how much is used in %, extrapolate for remaining %
[07:01] <iAmerikan> shimabuku -- http://localhost/sample/ is the same as http://localhost/sample/index.html
[07:01] <ruslan_osmanov> folks, empathy fails to log in gmail account!
[07:01] <LAcan> ecinxi, so your boot loader is messed up?
[07:01] <Mack> Nobody was in the beginner's channel so I came here...
[07:01] <ecinxi> LAcan, I think so
[07:01] <iAmerikan> Hello Mack
[07:01] <LAcan> ecinxi, when you boot, do your normal OS options come up?
[07:01] <mick_laptop> shimabuku: actually what you want is to use mod_rewrite for url rewriting
[07:01] <ecinxi> yes
[07:01] <LAcan> ecinxi, ok and u pick windows and then...?
[07:01] <Mack> My question is this: I installed version 9.1 using Sun's Virtual Box. Do I need to uninstall it in order to upgrade to the new version in a few days?
[07:02] <hans1> JamezQ: i have nvidia drivers, don't think xrandr works with them
[07:02] <ecinxi> I don't remember what happens. I haven't tried that option in a week
[07:02] <mick_laptop> shimabuku: it is kind of an advanced topic, you can do what iAmerikan suggested, but in a real project - you'd use mod_rewrite
[07:02] <ecinxi> but it doesnt go to windows
[07:02] <ActionParsnip> Mack: you can upgrade to lucid, then to maverick then to natty
[07:02] <shimabuku> mick_laptop: i actually implemented mod_rewrite via mick_laptop
[07:02] <LAcan> ecinxi, ok what happens when you pick ubuntu?
[07:02] <shimabuku> sudo a2enmod rewrite
[07:02] <Mack> Isn't Lucid the version I already have?
[07:02] <ActionParsnip> Mack: as the install is young I suggest you clean install natty
[07:03] <ecinxi> LAcan, the disk drive for / is not ready yet or not present continue to wait or press s to skip mounting or m for manual recovery
[07:03] <ActionParsnip> Mack: 9.10 == karmic which is EOL real soon. 10.04 == Lucid
[07:03] <cheshire_fox> LAcan: thats great for just that ONE thing.  But I use my laptop for more then one thing.  Even then battery life will vary depending on whats happening below the gui.
[07:03] <JamezQ> hans1: Sorry, then I'm stumped
[07:03] <Mack> Action: I installe d it last spring for a college class, and now I have another class that will be using it. It's not really a "new" install
[07:03] <LAcan> ecinxi, try the windows option and tells me what happens, specifically please
[07:03] <ecinxi> np
[07:03] <iAmerikan> Dear #ubuntu, why'd Canonical ditch aptitude? --love amerikant
[07:04] <Rehan> If I right click on any of my panels it no longer gives me the option to move or add or remove anything from the panel. Could anyone help?
[07:04] <Mack> Action-. Gotcha.
[07:04] <LAcan> cheshire_fox, ya, and no software is gonn accurately compensate for that
[07:04] <ActionParsnip> Mack: ok then if you want natty you will need to upgrade to each successive release. The way you explained it sounded like a new install
[07:04] <LAcan> cheshire_fox, ergo, percentae is your most accurate measure
[07:04] <cheshire_fox> LAcan: I know and I don't even get that. ^_%
[07:04] <ActionParsnip> iAmerikan: it's not ditched at all, its available in the repos
[07:04] <ecinxi> Lacan it seems to be working now, windows that is
[07:04] <ActionParsnip> !info aptitude iAmerikan
[07:04] <mick_laptop> shimabuku: you need more than to just enable it
[07:05] <ActionParsnip> !info aptitude | iAmerikan
[07:05] <LAcan> ecinxi, hrmmm... are these OS' instaled on physically seperate drives or the same drive with partitions?
[07:05] <mick_laptop> shimabuku: you need to figure out what you want to do first, and then edit your apache config to add the rewrite rules
[07:05] <cheshire_fox> LAcan: I just want to know why g-p-m isn't even giving anything remotely useful and then see if I can fix it
[07:05] <LAcan> !info supertuxkart
[07:05] <Mack> ActionParsnip: so do the upgrades in order and I won't lose anything?
[07:05] <ActionParsnip> Mack: should be fine.
[07:06] <iAmerikan> ActionParsnip -- I know it's in the repos, but isn't apt-get depreciated comparitivly
[07:06] <iAmerikan> (sp)
[07:06] <shimabuku> mick_laptop: ok thanks, i will look into that
[07:06] <LAcan> cheshire_fox, is it not giving u a percenage? there are battery mopneitor available
[07:06] <ecinxi> NM, it failed. I hit continue system resume, seen the windows logo resuming windos  now i have a blinking cursor.  That's the blinking cursor I had on my screen for a week.
[07:06] <Mack> OK. Thank you. Am ollking forward to the new release. Have a nice evening
[07:06] <ActionParsnip> iAmerikan: not really
[07:06] <ecinxi> same drive with different partitions
[07:06] <Mack> looking...
[07:06] <mick_laptop> shimabuku: google clean urls with mod_rewrite -- again, this is a bit of an advanced topic for someone new to the whole LAMP tack
[07:06] <mick_laptop> stack*
[07:06] <LAcan> ecinxi, so windows is NOT booting either?
[07:06] <thebuntutweaker> %K      %0
[07:06] <ecinxi> let's see, as much as it pains me, i'll delete windows resume point
[07:07] <ActionParsnip> iAmerikan: but you said "ditched" and it's not at all, it's readily available
[07:07] <mick_laptop> is 385,584,448 some type of a special number in ubuntu?
[07:07] <LAcan> ecinxi, that wasnt the question
[07:07] <cheshire_fox> LAcan: yeah, no percent.  Honestly, a percent would be better as there is less math involved then trying to say 'hey you have x amount of time before your laptop is out of power' every 3 minutes.
[07:07] <keinyoung> hello every one how can i get a pubkey
[07:07] <ecinxi> windows has two options 'continue with system resume' (didn't work)
[07:07] <LAcan> cheshire_fox, did u search synaptics for different battery monitors? there must be one to your liking?
[07:07] <Macer> well. just decided to drop zfs and wait on it to get better
[07:07] <Macer> :)
[07:07] <ecinxi> and delete resotration data and proceed to system boot menu
[07:07] <Evildaemon> keinyoung,  For?
[07:07] <JamezQ> mick_laptop: Why do you ask that?
[07:07] <Macer> maybe in a year or so it will be in distro installs
[07:07] <ActionParsnip> keinyoung: can you give the output of:  sudo apt-get update   please dude, use a pastebin
[07:08] <Macer> back to hardware raid5 for me
[07:08] <keinyoung> for ubuntu
[07:08] <Macer> with ext4 heh
[07:08] <keinyoung> apt-get
[07:08] <LAcan> ecinxi, ok do you have some recovery CD's around? sounds like youve got data corruption
[07:08] <Evildaemon> wait, like a crypto key??
[07:08] <ecinxi> no i don't
[07:08] <ActionParsnip> keinyoung: i don't follow..
[07:08] <iAmerikan> ActionParsnip -- I understand, but IIRC canonical ditched it to up it's new-user-friendlyness
[07:08] <cheshire_fox> LAcan: I'm more of the kind of girl who likes to fix whats already installed.  I'm use to gpm Although I might look for something that much more lightweight.
[07:08] <LAcan> ecinxi, ok google "ultimate boot cd" download it and burn it
[07:08] <keinyoung> o
[07:09] <LAcan> cheshire_fox, im not in ubuntu right now or id take a look
[07:09] <LAcan> cheshire_fox, will u stil be here n 20 minutes or so?
[07:09] <cheshire_fox> LAcan: understandable.  I'll look myself
[07:09] <cheshire_fox> probably
[07:09] <mick_laptop> JamezQ: seems to be the magic number that crashes my box: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/34652 <-- I have a problem similar to this
[07:09] <iAmerikan> ActionParsnip -- aptitude even has ncurses while apt-get does not
[07:09] <keinyoung> some body can tell me how to get apt-get pubkey thanks!
[07:09]  * LAcan is going for coffee and cigarettes. anyone need anything? ecinxi ill be back in 20 minuts, start downloading that iso
[07:09] <ActionParsnip> iAmerikan: its not part of a default install, that's it.
[07:09] <mick_laptop> ulimit -a shows that pretty much everything is unlimited
[07:10] <ecinxi> LAcan, I deleted the restoration point and windows is working
[07:10] <LAcan> back in 20
[07:10] <ecinxi> k thanks
[07:10] <iAmerikan> ActionParsnip -- okay :) But it's also better w/ depends oob, so I still will never be happy w/ that decision
[07:11] <keinyoung> please tell me
[07:11] <iAmerikan> keinyoung -- what?
[07:11] <ActionParsnip> iAmerikan: both satisfy deps equally well. I've never used aptitude and never had an issue
[07:11] <keinyoung> apt -get pubkey
[07:11] <iAmerikan> ActionParsnip -- Oh I see. :)
[07:12] <keinyoung> iAmerikan please ?
[07:12] <ActionParsnip> keinyoung: it depends on the repo you need the key for, if you can give a pastebin of the output of the command I gave, I can advise but simply trying to guess by typing nonesense in the channel does nothing
[07:12] <mick_laptop> whoever asked about adding the key: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys KEY_ID<---this is the number when it says "public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY"
[07:13] <keinyoung> o thanks
[07:13] <mick_laptop> if only someone could help me w/ my issue :(
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> keinyoung: if you run: sudo apt-get update       copy all the text and paste on http://pastebin.com    and I can advise
[07:14] <mick_laptop> ActionParsnip: he left
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> oh well
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> me too, home time :)
[07:15] <mick_laptop> ActionParsnip: he was just missing the key, I bet what I said helped him
[07:15] <mick_laptop> now i'm talking to myelf
[07:15] <syrinx_> lol
[07:15] <mick_laptop> *sigh*
[07:15] <syrinx_> don't talk to yourself mate
[07:16] <mick_laptop> I think I'll just use split on this file
[07:16] <mick_laptop> it is an ubuntu iso :(
[07:16] <syrinx_> why ya doin that?
[07:17] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: What problem are you having?
[07:18] <mick_laptop> syrinx_: seems to be a bug where I can't d/l "large" files (in this case a 700mb iso over ethernet)
[07:18] <mick_laptop> always dies at 385,584,448
[07:18] <syrinx_> ouch
[07:18] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: wget -c
[07:18] <mick_laptop> Jordan_U: right, I've done that
[07:18] <mick_laptop> and it dies
[07:18] <mick_laptop> I've used wget -c and ff
[07:19] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: "dies" how?
[07:19] <mick_laptop> x becomes unresponsive and my cpu fan goes nuts
[07:19] <mick_laptop> my mouse also becomes unresponsive
[07:19] <mick_laptop> ctrl+alt+f# also doesn't work and I need to reboot
[07:19] <Macer> hm
[07:20] <Macer> where do i find the uuid of a partition?
[07:20] <Jordan_U> !sysrq | mick_laptop
[07:20] <Macer> i wanted to use a uuid for my raid
[07:20] <Jordan_U> Macer: sudo blkid
[07:20] <Macer> thanks
[07:20] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: Have you filed a bug report?
[07:20] <mick_laptop> Jordan_U: easier to remember to pull the plug
[07:20] <mick_laptop> Jordan_U: no, but I found a similar bug from a few years ago
[07:21] <Macer> Jordan_U: in fstab do i just put the uuid?
[07:21] <Macer> no UUID= or something like that?
[07:21] <mick_laptop> I'm bridging my connection over ethernet which might have something to do w/ it
[07:21] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: Yes, but pulling the plug doesn't shut down cleanly.
[07:21] <Jordan_U> !fstab | Macer
[07:21] <mick_laptop> it isn't as much fun
[07:21] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: Unless you have very good reason to believe it is the same bug then please file a new one.
[07:22] <Macer> thanks
[07:22] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: ubuntu-bug linux
[07:22] <mick_laptop> yaya
[07:22] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: Also please try the latest vanilla upstream kernel and see if you can reproduce the bug.
[07:22] <iAmerikan> mick_laptop -- do you know reisub
[07:23] <mick_laptop> Jordan_U: it is a fresh 10.10 install on a vanilla kernel
[07:23] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: Vanilla upstream kernel means no Ubuntu specific patches.
[07:23] <mick_laptop> Jordan_U: oh, no I haven't
[07:23] <mick_laptop> I'll triage once I get something done here
[07:24] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[07:24] <mick_laptop> I want to remix this damned iso before I rip all my hair out of my head
[07:24] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: Be sure to install the headers as well if you are using proprietary drivers (like nvidia).
[07:24]  * LAcan omg crush cream soda -- so good
[07:24] <mick_laptop> Jordan_U: can I ping you later (another time) if I have issues w/ that?
[07:25] <mick_laptop> right now, I'm focused more on my issue than on getting a proper fix in place
[07:25] <LAcan> cheshire_fox, so ya, ur gonna have to install a different battery manager. the one that comes with lxde is good-ish
[07:25] <mick_laptop> and submitting a lengthy bug report to the bts
[07:26] <mick_laptop> interesting, I have done wget -c a few times (and then rebooted)
[07:26] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: Yes, though I'm going to sleep soon.
[07:26] <mick_laptop> Jordan_U: I meant another day
[07:27] <cheshire_fox> LAcan: one that has support for the gnome-panel would be nice
[07:27] <mick_laptop> it seems like -c 5 or 6 times helped
[07:27] <Spaz_Dynamic> gah, I want 11.04 to release already
[07:27] <LAcan> cheshire_fox, did u look thru the software centre?
[07:27] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: Again fine, again you're more likely than not to catch me when I'm not here :)
[07:27] <cheshire_fox> not yet, got stuck playing minecraft
[07:27] <LAcan> cheshire_fox, lol, im partial to gBrainy or Cuby
[07:27] <Macer> dev/sda1             6.3T  181M  6.3T   1% /mnt/Storage
[07:28] <Macer> ouch ... that's quite a bit of overhead
[07:28] <Macer> 700GB lost
[07:28] <mick_laptop> shit, md5s don't match
[07:28] <Macer> ah well.. i suppose 6.3T will have to do
[07:28] <mick_laptop> and wget -c gives a 416 Requested Range Not Satisfiable
[07:28] <LAcan> man is there a good antivrus chat somewhere on IRC?
[07:29] <mick_laptop> LAcan: #clamav ?
[07:29] <mick_laptop> LAcan: define av chat :)
[07:29] <LAcan> mick_laptop, I said "good" lol
[07:29] <mick_laptop> LAcan: well there used to be (but now is defunct) #clamwin
[07:29] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: There is still hope in magic that is zsync :)
[07:29] <cheshire_fox> LAcan: I'm going to try the powermanager from xfce
[07:29] <LAcan> cheshire_fox, ya thats the one
[07:30] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: It will allow you to redownload only the bits that are wrong.
[07:30] <mick_laptop> LAcan: there are a few that are more security related - what are you after?
[07:30] <ubuntu> hi
[07:30] <LAcan> mick_laptop, someone who can solve persistent Alureon infections
[07:30] <LAcan> mick_laptop, on windows of course
[07:30] <sIRC> mick_laptop, on windows of course
[07:31] <LAcan> wth
[07:31] <mick_laptop> LAcan: well, if you have an infected box, best bet is to wipe and reinstall
[07:31] <LAcan> mick_laptop, ya see, i did that already
[07:31] <mick_laptop> another box on your network is attacking this box and reinfecting it?
[07:32] <LAcan> mick_laptop, i suspect its coming thru browser files... infected ads or something
[07:32] <ubuntu> is natty a stable release?
[07:32] <mick_laptop> well flash had a pretty bad security hole that was patched on the 15th or so
[07:33] <mick_laptop> LAcan: I'd recommend FF w/ adblock plus + noscript
[07:33] <sIRC> LAcan: I'd recommend FF w/ adblock plus + noscript
[07:33] <LAcan> mick_laptop, but now that u mention it, i am using my neighbours open wifi.. and if his wifi is open...
[07:33] <top_ramen> grrrr that program is broken..... or my computer is lol
[07:33] <LAcan> mick_laptop, im on ff4 is that plugin available?
[07:33] <mick_laptop> LAcan: yeah, if you don't control the boxes on your network and your box isn't hardened
[07:33] <mick_laptop> ...
[07:33] <mick_laptop> :)
[07:33] <Afteraffekt> http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Multimedia/Flash#For_i386
[07:33] <mick_laptop> LAcan: yes, both are
[07:34] <LAcan> mick_laptop, i assume no script breaks gresemonkey/icefilms ?
[07:34] <mick_laptop> LAcan: another thing, are you installing from CD?
[07:34] <ohzie> lol su -c
[07:34] <mick_laptop> LAcan: no
[07:34] <ohzie> "we're too good for sudo"
[07:34]  * top_ramen is ready to take a hammer to his computer
[07:34] <LAcan> mick_laptop, ya a real vista cd.. well from alienware
[07:34] <mick_laptop> LAcan: you whitelist each domain
[07:35] <mick_laptop> LAcan: ok, from a non-infected linux box - d/l the security updates for vista. take the windows box offline and do a reinstall (don't go online) - then patch it and get it up to date first
[07:36] <mick_laptop> get the latest version of flash from adobe before browsing the web
[07:36] <freaky[t]> hi all, i got a question. I did apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and now the boot splash and grub background is blue and it says booting kubuntu but i want it back to ubuntu how do i do that?
[07:36] <LAcan> mick_laptop, ya i dont think that will solve it... im running multiple AV systmes here that are detecting and cleaning it but for example, my last infection came overnight while pc was just sitting at logon screen
[07:37] <Jordan_U> !windows | LAcan
[07:37] <mick_laptop> LAcan: vista comes w/ a lot of security holes by default if you don't patch your system
[07:37] <tase> hey guys my laptop is running quite hot, ubuntu 10.10, temperature is fine on windows 7
[07:37] <LAcan> mick_laptop, ya ima look into adblock and no script... man theres a lot of these adblock plugins... which one do I want?
[07:37] <mick_laptop> LAcan: and if you have botnet infected machines on *cough* your *cough* network - then you are bound to get your box rooted
[07:38] <LAcan> tase, what kind of GPU u got?
[07:38] <mick_laptop> adblock plus
[07:38] <mick_laptop> tase: is this a netbook?
[07:38] <tase> mick_laptop, no, full size Gateway laptop
[07:38] <top_ramen> can someone help me with my laptop before i trash it
[07:38] <Spaz_Dynamic> tase: what is your preformance setting? It might have your CPU clocked all the way up.
[07:38] <LAcan> mick_laptop, is adblock gonna break facebook or gmail or anything?
[07:38] <mick_laptop> tase: I had an eeepc get insainly hot when doing anything, shitty hw design IMO
[07:39] <tase> LAcan, just an intel imbedded gpu
[07:39] <mick_laptop> LAcan: no, just whitelist things as you go
[07:39] <tase> mick_laptop, runs fine on windows tho
[07:39] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: LAcan: Please move Windows conversation to another channel (like ##windows or #ubuntu-offtopic).
[07:39] <mick_laptop> LAcan: they will "look broken" at first
[07:39] <Spaz_Dynamic> top_ramen: you have yet to say what is wrong, and until you do, nobody can help you
[07:39] <akma> Does my ubuntu remain if i reinstall windows? my linux is wubi installed.
[07:39] <mick_laptop> LAcan: i'll /msg you
[07:39] <cheshire_fox> LAcan: the xfce power manager worked for me :D
[07:39] <LAcan> cheshire_fox, bingo!
[07:39] <Jordan_U> akma: No (even with wubi).
[07:40] <tase> Spaz_Dynamic, performance settings ? my CPU downclocks
[07:40] <top_ramen> My laptop doesnt not have a cd drive and i am trying to install ubuntu 10.10. and its not working so well
[07:40] <Spaz_Dynamic> tase: It is downclocking?
[07:40] <top_ramen> i tried putting it on a usb and boot from it but it wont work
[07:41] <tase> Spaz_Dynamic, yea, the little applet reports its at 60%, set "Ondemand"
[07:41] <top_ramen> i tried running the iso vai daemon tools... failed again
[07:41] <Jordan_U> akma: It's actually more difficult to keep Ubuntu when re-installing Windows with Wubi than with a normal dual boot install on a separate partition.
[07:41] <akma> Jordan_U: so what are my options if i want to install ubuntu? wubi takes much time
[07:41] <Spaz_Dynamic> top_ramen: how did you try and put it on the usb stick?
[07:41] <ubuntu> top_ramen, check bios
[07:41] <Jordan_U> top_ramen: How are you trying to create the USB? What happens when you try to boot from it?
[07:41] <mah454> How i can redirect help commandss to file . For example "cdrecord --help > help"
[07:41] <akma> Jordan_U: i have it on a separate partition
[07:41] <Afteraffekt> what file type should a script for Xchat be?
[07:42] <Jordan_U> akma: Follow the instructions @ http://ubuntu.com/download/
[07:42] <top_ramen> my laptop ignores it as if nothing is plugged in
[07:42] <Jordan_U> mah454: cdrecord --help 2> help
[07:42] <charles245dfg4> Does anyone know how to fix the blank screen issue?  I think it's due to the monitor resolution and I've tried all the standard methods of fixing it: adding xforcevesa, nomodeset, vga=771, etc to the boot parameters
[07:43] <charles245dfg4> I also tried the alternate install CD, same issue, once ubuntu loads the monitor gets no input
[07:44] <Jordan_U> charles245dfg4: After install, or is there a problem loading the installer itself?
[07:44] <Spaz_Dynamic> tase: hmm, on demand pops your CPU clock from minimum clock speed to maximum if I remember right. Try setting it to... ah bugger, can't remember it. There is Performance, Power save (or similar), ondemand, and something else. Do the last one. It should clock your processor up by smaller steps (if possible) which will reduce both power consumption and heat output
[07:44] <lwizardl> what video card ?
[07:44] <charles245dfg4> Loading the installer unfortunately :(
[07:44] <tase> Spaz_Dynamic, "Conservative" ?
[07:44] <charles245dfg4> it's an XFX ATI radeon hd 5770
[07:44] <Spaz_Dynamic> tase: Yes, thats the one.
[07:44] <Jordan_U> Akuma: Having your Wubi root.disk on a different partition than "C:" is not currently supported, and can break fairly catastrophically.
[07:45] <Spaz_Dynamic> tase: that one, for example, clocks my cpu from 1ghz to 1.3, 1.6 and 2.0 ghz as needed by cpu utilization.
[07:46] <tase> Spaz_Dynamic, I see, ill set it to that, also is there a way to control the computer fans, or is it only managed by the BIOS ?
[07:46] <top_ramen> ???
[07:46] <charles245dfg4> I also think I tried the failsafex option
[07:47] <Spaz_Dynamic> tase: that is normally controlled by bios, I believe. I know my fans normally adjust to clock speed/power draw and actual heat of the processor
[07:47] <Spaz_Dynamic> tase: Though I could be wrong.
[07:48] <LAcan> anyone ever use opensync with their Blackberry? or any contact sync solution for ubuntu?
[07:48] <Spaz_Dynamic> tase: my laptop kicks the fan up as soon as the cpu clocks up, and if it maintains that, it speeds the fan up more (as I assume the cpu is getting warmer)
[07:50] <Spaz_Dynamic> tase: and sometimes it takes a while for the fans to slow down, I know my tower will take it's sweet time before lowering the fan to it's lowest setting (which is nigh silent).
[07:50] <rom4ik> this is my first time using IRC
[07:50] <mick_laptop> rom4ik: welcome
[07:51] <rom4ik> how to reply back to a particular person?
[07:51] <BlackDalek> how do I chat or send messages over the LAN without the need to go via internet?
[07:52] <mick_laptop> LAcan: http://www.netdirect.ca/software/packages/barry
[07:52] <rom4ik> mick_laptop thank you
[07:53] <Spaz_Dynamic> rom4ik: what client are you using?
[07:54] <rom4ik> XChat
[07:54] <drei> Hey I'm running a 64 bit ubuntu 10.10, would it be alright if I installed a deb file which is a 32 bit application and run?
[07:54] <rom4ik> Spaz_Dynamic: XChat
[07:54] <Ringwaul> Soooo I have no idea how to download Natty
[07:54] <Ringwaul> Maverick won't install :(
[07:54] <mick_laptop> Jordan_U: ok, how do i use zsync? I've read the manpage and i'm still a bit lost
[07:54] <pkkm> Yesterday Ubuntu was OK. Today I booted it and got "Kernel panic - not syncing VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (0,0)". How to fix it?
[07:55] <mick_laptop> drei: yes - should be ok
[07:55] <rom4ik> how to reply back to a person without typing the name manually in Xchat
[07:55] <drei> okay thank you mick_laptop, I will try it
[07:55] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: First you need to find the .zsync file on one of the Ubuntu download mirrors.
[07:55] <Spaz_Dynamic> rom4ik: not familiar with that one, but normally, you can use tab to complete a username. I think some clients use control-r or something to "reply" to the last person you said your name or similar. I just use tab completion.
[07:55] <rom4ik> pkkm: check /etc/fstab
[07:55] <shcherbak> rom4ik: shch<TAB> ?
[07:55] <mick_laptop> Ringwaul: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/
[07:55] <Ringwaul> woo
[07:56] <Jordan_U> Ringwaul: #ubuntu+1 for natty.
[07:56] <rom4ik> Spaz_Dynamic, wow!!! TAB works!!! thank you
[07:56] <rom4ik> shcherbak, thank you!!!
[07:56] <sekkis> xdcc
[07:57] <pkkm> rom4ik, OK, I will mount the Ubuntu partition and check /etc/fstab when fsck finishes.
[07:57] <Ringwaul> mmk
[07:57] <shcherbak> :)
[07:57] <Spaz_Dynamic> rom4ik: you're most welcome.  glad I could help
[07:57] <BlackDalek> Is there any client for ubuntu that allows LAN chat with no internet connection?
[07:57] <shcherbak> BlackDalek: ntalk
[07:57] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: Then zsync -i /path/to/what_you_have_already.iso http://url.com/file.zsync
[07:57] <Spaz_Dynamic> rom4ik: anything else you wanna know? We should probably move out of #ubuntu or at least start messaging if we're going to continue non-ubuntu related things.
[07:57] <mick_laptop> thanks - so it is like jigdo (which I've used w/ debian before)
[07:58] <top_ramen> how can i install ubuntu 10.10 without a cd drive?
[07:58] <Ringwaul> USB stick?
[07:58] <rom4ik> top_ramen, USB
[07:58] <mick_laptop> top_ramen: using a usb stick or sd reader+card
[07:58] <mick_laptop> damned, beat me to it :)
[07:58] <Ringwaul> lol
[07:58] <red2kic> BlackDalek: Bonjour (Pidgin use it).
[07:58] <Spaz_Dynamic> top_ramen: did you ever say how you tried putting the image on the stick?
[07:58] <rom4ik> top_ramen, go to ubuntu.com and click download then click usb install
[07:58] <top_ramen> i cant get those to work... i dont know what i am doing wrong
[07:59] <Spaz_Dynamic> top_ramen: also, does your bios support booting usb?
[07:59] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: In a way. But they use very different methods (jigdo can also be used to grab Ubuntu alternate isos).
[07:59] <top_ramen> i dont think so Spaz
[07:59] <mick_laptop> Jordan_U: why can't we just all stick to rsync :)
[07:59] <Jordan_U> top_ramen: How did you create the USB?
[08:00] <Spaz_Dynamic> top_ramen: well if your bios doesn't support booting USB sticks, then that is why it won't boot off of them, regardless of if it was created correctly or not. Can you confirm whether it does or not?
[08:00] <mah454> How i can use burg for making iso file ?
[08:00] <mah454> How i can use burg-mkrescue command for making iso file ?
[08:00] <red2kic> mick_laptop: there are no .rsync file :(
[08:01] <rom4ik> Spaz_Dynamic, I'm trying to find a way to find IRC chanell for Hackintosh install. I found this link (http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=163252) this is for my M50VM but I don't know if i can install it right now(I have windows and ubuntu 10.10 installed) using grub as a bootloader..i found easyBSD software but i'm not sure if the macosx will not delete it...basically i need macosx to use djay(it is only for macs)
[08:01] <herman> hi all, short question: unity just crashed, resulting in loss of everything i had open. I know this is the risk of running beta software, but where do i find unity-logs? I'd better report it because it'll almost be released
[08:01] <top_ramen> Spaz: when i go into my bios it list what i can boot off of
[08:01] <mick_laptop> damned box froze again :(
[08:01] <mick_laptop> reboot time
[08:02] <BlackDalek> does pidgin allow chat over a LAN? - I thought pidgin was for over the internet protocols only?
[08:02] <top_ramen> i used the universal usb installer on the ubuntu site
[08:03] <red2kic> BlackDalek: You forget that Pidgin is a multi-protocol client.
[08:03] <herman> does unity have a specific logfile at all?
[08:03] <rzx237> BlackDalek: yes it does
[08:03] <mick_laptop> BlackDalek: yes it does bonjour - i haven't tried it though
[08:04] <BlackDalek> ok
[08:04] <Spaz_Dynamic> top_ramen: does it list USB devices or something similar? or have it in a list for adding to the bootable devices?
[08:04] <top_ramen> nope
[08:04] <rom4ik> Spaz_Dynamic, if u could help me with my query that would be great....if not its ok ill try google
[08:04] <anuragr> Supybot
[08:05] <top_ramen> Spaz, when i use the universal usb program i get a lot of errors
[08:06] <Spaz_Dynamic> top_ramen: then as far as I can tell, I don't believe your computer can boot off of USB sticks. if you can do a PXE aka network install, then that might be possible, but I haven't any idea how to do that so someone else would need to assist you.
[08:06] <mick_laptop> rom4ik: the #1 rule of irc is search the web first, if nothing shows up - then ask
[08:06] <mick_laptop> :)
[08:06] <mick_laptop> friendly reminder
[08:06] <rom4ik> mick_laptop, thank you!!! i didn't know the rules
[08:06] <mick_laptop> Spaz_Dynamic: for that you need a tftp server
[08:07] <Macer> sigh. kind of disappointed i couldn't get this old server to use zfs
[08:07] <Macer> :)
[08:07] <Macer> i need to find a gbit box around here and test the hw raid speeds
[08:07] <mick_laptop> Macer: freebsd? or opensolaris?
[08:07] <Macer> hm. pci-x is backwards compatible with pci right?
[08:07] <Macer> ubuntu heh
[08:07] <mick_laptop> opensolaris is a PITA :)
[08:07] <Macer> i was trying out the spl build
[08:07] <Macer> not really
[08:07] <mick_laptop> Macer: ubuntu? you mean via FUSE?
[08:07] <freaky[t]> hi all, i got a question. I did apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and now the boot splash and grub background is blue and it says booting kubuntu but i want it back to ubuntu how do i do that?
[08:08] <top_ramen> Spaz, real quick i am using a tablet pc should i use the netbook verson or the desktop?
[08:08] <Macer> it just does certain things that were driving me nuts
[08:08] <Macer> opensolaris that is
[08:08] <Macer> mick_laptop: no. spl "native" zfs for linux
[08:08] <rom4ik> freaky[t], I would go to text mode stop kde remove kubuntu environment and install gdm
[08:08] <Macer> but zfs really wasn't the main issue (which it was an issue)
[08:08] <mick_laptop> freaky[t]: apt-get remove  kubuntu-desktop :)
[08:08] <Macer> the problem was my raid and onboard sata
[08:08] <orangey> hello all
[08:08] <Spaz_Dynamic> top_ramen: I would probably just use desktop, but that's me. It's probably more of a personal preference
[08:08] <ubuntu> nick FatherOfGod
[08:08] <orangey> anybody have some success with the gnome3-team ppa?
[08:09] <Macer> the luns wouldn't detect properly when jboding the raid card :)
[08:09] <orangey> I'm not able to login
[08:09] <spirals> freaky[t], you can do it more easily than that:
[08:09] <freaky[t]> mick_laptop: i tried apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[08:09] <orangey> I keep getting the "oh no!" message
[08:09] <Macer> i had conflicting luns.. it was the weirdest thing.
[08:09] <spirals> freaky[t], just do sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[08:09] <mick_laptop> Macer: url? i thought that wasn't possible because of the CDL + GPL licensing incompatibility
[08:09] <Macer> i didn't think there was a limit on that sort of stuff
[08:09] <Macer> er... one sec..
[08:09] <spirals> freaky[t], that will give you a question "Make GDM default?" Say Yes
[08:09] <freaky[t]> spirals: gdm is allready the manager i have at login screen
[08:09] <rom4ik> freaky[t], first stop KDE ...then remove as mick_laptop said them install ubuntu-desktop
[08:09] <_sd325> how do i get the kernel selection menu when the pc starts?
[08:09] <hp_> #demonoid
[08:09] <spirals> Oh you're talking about the bootsplash then
[08:09] <shcherbak> freaky[t]: reinstall gdm after you will try to change session in login screen.
[08:09] <spirals> Gotcha.

[08:10] <mick_laptop> freaky[t]: just uninstall the other one, and make sure you have gdm installed
[08:10] <freaky[t]> spirals: i mean the bootup screen
[08:10] <freaky[t]> guys i mean the bootup screen and the grub splash
[08:10] <mick_laptop> Macer: they are incompatible
[08:10] <Macer> ?
[08:10] <Macer> the onboard scsi and the card?
[08:10] <Jordan_U> top_ramen: What errors? (And can you use my nick in your answer so I notice it?)
[08:10] <mick_laptop> something tells me they didn't care when putting that together :)
[08:10] <spirals> freaky[t], the package for that is plymouth-theme-kubuntu-logo (on natty), there should be an equivalent package in older ubuntus, removing it will return you to the default bootsplash
[08:10] <rom4ik> mick_laptop, I spent hours finding djay software for ubuntu(it is for macs only) i found only mixxx soft for linux which is not quite what i want, any help?
[08:11] <Macer> mick_laptop: haha
[08:11] <mick_laptop> Macer: no the licenses
[08:11] <litropy> I installed ubuntu-desktop. Now, I want to "upgrade" to ubuntu-server. How do I do so?
[08:11] <Macer> yeah. that's what i understood too but who knows
[08:11] <spirals> freaky[t], do 'apt-cache search kubuntu|grep boot' to find it
[08:11] <Macer> maybe they are just waiting to get sued or something :)
[08:11] <mick_laptop> no distro would pick that up
[08:11] <mick_laptop> yeah
[08:11] <mick_laptop> :)
[08:11] <Macer> mick_laptop: an underground distro could :)
[08:11] <mick_laptop> litropy: *sigh* server is the same as desktop minus the UI
[08:11]  * Macer pictures UndLinux
[08:11] <Jordan_U> litropy: Install whatever server packages you want. Ubuntu flavors differ only in their default installed packages.
[08:12] <mick_laptop> litropy: you don't "upgrade" to it
[08:12] <Macer> mick_laptop: ubuntu server?
[08:12] <freaky[t]> spirals: thank you
[08:12] <freaky[t]> and thanks all others for the help :)
[08:12] <Macer> weren't they always the same? :) i don't see what you can add to server that would make it much different
[08:12] <mick_laptop> Macer: yeah, I was talking to litropy
[08:12] <Macer> oh
[08:12] <Macer> sorry
[08:12] <litropy> mick_laptop, I know. Which is why I put "upgrade" in quotes.
[08:12] <mick_laptop> yeah it is the same, minus X windows
[08:12] <spirals> freaky[t], you're welcome, did you identify a package for the kubuntu boot splash on your system?
[08:13] <mick_laptop> litropy: then just remove the UI stuff
[08:13] <Macer> heh... well... xorg is a waste on a server :)
[08:13] <mick_laptop> right
[08:13] <spirals> Macer, xvfb <3
[08:13] <Macer> i don't even keep a monitor attached to my server 99% of the time
[08:13] <Macer> unless there is a serious problem
[08:14] <freaky[t]> spirals:  i did
[08:14] <Macer> i was surprised the nvraid was so easily supported
[08:14] <litropy> mick_laptop, K. I was just making sure server doesn't include anything extra.
[08:14] <JamezQ> You should always use headless servers
[08:14] <freaky[t]> spirals:  i didsudo apt-get install --reinstall plymouth-theme-ubuntu-logo plymouth-theme-ubuntu-text
[08:14] <Macer> i remember that being just horrible a few years ago
[08:14] <JamezQ> I love ubuntu server :), the sound of running fans put's be to sleep like a lullaby.
[08:14] <Macer> nice to see i have a mirror which probably won't really save anything haha
[08:14] <JamezQ> me*
[08:14] <spirals> freaky[t], that should do it too.
[08:15] <mick_laptop> Macer: very interesting: http://zfsonlinux.org/zfs-disclaimer.html
[08:15] <_sd325> how do i get the kernel selection menu when the pc starts?
[08:15] <spirals> freaky[t], you're on natty?
[08:15] <freaky[t]> spirals: ok thank you very much :D
[08:15] <freaky[t]> spirals: yes
[08:15] <spirals> freaky[t], k feel free to pm me if it doesnt work, i'm on natty/kubuntu as well
[08:15] <Macer> mnt/Storage   6.3T   11G  6.2T   1% /mnt/Storage
[08:15]  * Macer sheds a tear
[08:15] <mick_laptop> "This work was prepared as an account of work sponsored by an agency of the United States Government."
[08:15] <freaky[t]> spirals: i gotta reboot now th en
[08:15] <mick_laptop> Macer: ^^^
[08:15] <Ringwaul> Macer: A single indian tear?
[08:16] <Macer> i lost a lot of stuff on that with this little project.. looks like i will be using hw raid and ext4 for a long time :)
[08:16] <mick_laptop> Macer: doing a contract for the DOE will make you unsueable :)
[08:17] <Macer> mick_laptop: :) yup
[08:17] <Macer> last i checked you can't sue the federal government
[08:18] <mick_laptop> Macer: I really have no idea how they plan on pulling it off. I mean you can't just say "oh just license this little bit of code under the CDDL here and the rest is GPL"
[08:18] <mick_laptop> Macer: you *can* (that is in the constitution)
[08:18] <Macer> i thought the constitution says "you can't"
[08:19] <Macer> or that the fed government does not have to honor civil law suits against it
[08:19] <Macer> it has been a while tho.. :) but either way. i don't see why you can't use both licenses
[08:19] <Macer> doesn't ubuntu have closed source drivers?
[08:19] <Ringwaul> :X
[08:19] <Macer> :)
[08:20] <Macer> there is quite a bit that is probably included in ubuntu which falls under licenses that are not compatible with the gpl.. but the only thing that you probably WON'T see is zfs making its way into the offical linux kernel branches any time soon
[08:20] <Spaz_Dynamic> good grief, when did it become 3:20 AM?
[08:21] <Macer> which makes me wonder.. if an installer had scripts to keep gpl and cddl stuff apart.. then why can't you make a distro using both?
[08:22] <Macer> i like it when the linux community sues hardware manufacturers for releasing closed drivers because they have 1 line of obscure code . that's the spirit.. force openness to alienate potential fully working hardware :)
[08:23] <mick_laptop> Macer: it workss like this... you can and you can't
[08:23] <Macer> in exchange for a kernel module which works half way and never gets finished before the hardware in question is obsolete heh
[08:23] <Veidit> Good morning, I have a problem with NIS, I am using these instructions and it's working great for me: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNISHowTo But one user that logs in via his mac dosn't get in the right groups, but if he log in via the yp server first and then ssh to the any other server it works.
[08:23] <mick_laptop> Macer: you can't sure a department (like the IRS) it is considered a Federal sovereign immunity
[08:23] <mick_laptop> Macer: but you can sue the federal govt
[08:23] <_sd325> how do i get the kernel selection menu when the pc starts? I want to start 10.04 with an older kernel
[08:24] <mick_laptop> Macer: i meant "can't sue"
[08:24] <llutz_> _sd325: hold left shift while booting
[08:24] <Fleck> _sd325 usually ESC after POST screens
[08:24] <ray_> How do I see what's under a dir?
[08:25] <evelyette> hi, is it possible to enter password for mysql-server (root) in advance ... so the package configuration doesn't not pop up asking for root password ?
[08:25] <ray_> Like lost and found
[08:25] <rach0> ray_, ls- al
[08:25] <Macer> heh. well. i can't say i'm too keen on civil laws against the us govt .. either way though. i know that dod had a 20 years license with a software company.. they reverse engineered their code and cancelled the part that would force the software to expire then the company tried to sue them for doing it and it was thrown out .. forgot how long ago that was
[08:25] <ray_> TY
[08:25] <_sd325> thanks
[08:26] <llutz_> !ot
[08:26] <Macer> but i don't see why ubuntu can't use both the gpl and cddl in unison :)
[08:26] <mick_laptop> Macer: they are incompatible licenses
[08:26] <Macer> in order to provide zfs in the installer.. but i suppose that depends more on what limitations are in the cddl
[08:26] <Dan_> hi all
[08:27] <Macer> incompatible with what though?
[08:27] <ray_> ls: cannot access al: No such file or directory
[08:27] <Fleck> ls -al
[08:27] <Macer> they are incompatible as far as using zfs code in a linux kernel.. but that can be worked around
[08:27] <iAmerikan> Macer -- Ubuntu targets ease of use and etc. Why am I reading about zfs and whatnot?!?1
[08:27] <mick_laptop> Macer: if you link code to a GPL app - your app must be GPL (or a license that is compatible) -- which CDDL is not
[08:27] <mick_laptop> Macer: it was worked around via FUSE before
[08:28] <rach0> ray_, ls -al, i mistyped it
[08:28] <Dan_> hey does anyone know what the default ubuntu USB webcam /dev would be? I have a CCTV setup that I'm trying to get working on ubuntu
[08:28] <ray_> I see
[08:28] <ray_> TY
[08:28] <mick_laptop> iAmerikan: OSX was going to use ZFS - it doesn't have to be hard
[08:28] <Macer> mick_laptop: that it was. in order to prevent code from mingling :)
[08:28] <red2kic> Dan_: /dev/video* ?
[08:28] <mick_laptop> iAmerikan: it is actually a great file system that makes your life easier
[08:28] <Macer> but ubuntu can just as easily find a way to keep all the code apart and have it come together during the install
[08:29] <mick_laptop> Macer: yeah, this however doesn't do that :)
[08:29] <Ringwaul> Soooo
[08:29] <mick_laptop> Macer: either way - it should be interesting to see what happens
[08:29] <Dan_> red2kic: thanks I tried /dev/video0 should it be just /dev/video
[08:29] <iAmerikan> mick_laptop -- I know. But I'm thinking in term of what ubuntu's been using, what people were familiar with, and whatnor
[08:29] <Ringwaul> Natty isn't listed in the USB installer program
[08:29] <Ringwaul> :<
[08:29] <mick_laptop> Macer: doen't quite work like taht
[08:29] <ray_> OK, so I got this:
[08:29] <iAmerikan> mick_laptop -- but you're completely right. different fs != different difficulty.
[08:29] <ray_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/599142/
[08:29] <ray_> There are 20 itmes
[08:29] <ray_> I guess
[08:29] <Macer> that it should. i really do believe oracle will keep that cddl until it goes bankrupt too :)
[08:30] <red2kic> Dan_: /dev/video might be pointed at /dev/video0 (or video1) -- Dpeends on how many cameras are hooked.
[08:30] <mick_laptop> iAmerikan: do you know what kind of features it has?
[08:30] <ray_> so how do I find out what they are?
[08:30] <Macer> there were rumors of it turning gpl when sun had it but i suppose oracle changed their minds
[08:30] <Macer> if zfs was allowed to run amok... what is left of solaris would die out very quickly
[08:30] <Dan_> red2kic: thanks mate, I have in dmesg the following :  Acer Crystal Eye webcam as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb1/1-5/1-5:1.0/input/input6
[08:30] <ray_> Or rather 20 of what ever
[08:31] <iAmerikan> mick_laptop -- not atm
[08:31] <Macer> anyways. i need to see if this kubuntu box can use this pci-x card in a pci slot :)
[08:31] <Macer> i remember pci-x being backwards compatible but don't remember
[08:31] <Macer> kind of in between
[08:32] <mick_laptop> iAmerikan: it has deduplication for one... so if you have the same 10 gig file 4 times... it takes up 10 gigs and not 40, another thing is that it has better data reliability (files don't get corrupted) and it is easy to add/remove storage
[08:32] <Macer> i got the card just because osol didn't support the onboard nv nics :(
[08:32] <Macer> which ubuntu does :)
[08:32] <iAmerikan> That's awesome mick_laptop I'll check it out in my next distro install.\
[08:32] <Ringwaul> Back in high-school we used this Linux distro that had KDE; I remember it being awesome and such. Now when I get Kubuntu I am wondering what the hell happened...
[08:32] <mick_laptop> iAmerikan: so if you add an external storage device then your hdd can just be seen as being 1tb larger - instead of having 2 disks
[08:33] <Dan_> does anyone know of an application which will enable me to stream USB webcam /dev/video or whatever over ssh to another machine? maybe VLC player for CCTV application
[08:33] <ray_> I don't understand how to see what is in lost and found
[08:33] <mick_laptop> Ringwaul: kde has changed over the years, i'm sure you'll think the same thing comparing windows versions
[08:33] <Jordan_U> ray_: sudo ls /lost+found/
[08:33] <Ringwaul> Heh. It's certainly changed more than windows
[08:34] <mick_laptop> Dan_: there are a few apps for home automation and security
[08:34] <Macer> Ringwaul: i think that kde4 is great... kubuntu is awesome
[08:34] <Ringwaul> the KDE I used was somewhat similar to win 7 gui actually
[08:34] <Ringwaul> But that was years ago
[08:34] <ray_> Nothing
[08:34] <mick_laptop> Dan_: check out sf.net and freshmeat.net
[08:34] <iAmerikan> mick_laptop -- I'm liking it more and more
[08:34] <Macer> Ringwaul: although you are correct.. it does seem rather similar to win7
[08:34] <ray_> but I pasted a pastebin
[08:34] <Macer> or the other way around ;)
[08:34] <JamezQ> It's the other way around
[08:34] <Dan_> mick_laptop: thanks its someting simple I'm after command line
[08:34] <Macer> but personally i love kubuntu and kde4.. they have done an outstanding job
[08:34] <mick_laptop> Ringwaul: really? not for me. you can't even open an office doc w/o going "wtf"
[08:35] <JamezQ> KDE people helped microsoft make aero
[08:35] <ray_> which says total 20
[08:35] <mick_laptop> Dan_: sure you can just tunnel vlc over ssh though
[08:35] <Macer> JamezQ: heh. i could see that
[08:35] <ray_> "drwx------  2 root root 16384 2011-04-08 05:09 ."
[08:35] <Macer> i remember ms saying they were going to have a FULL 3D desktop
[08:35] <ray_> "drwxr-xr-x 22 root root  4096 2011-04-08 06:09 .."
[08:35] <rach0> ray_, if you want to browse with a GUI type 'gksudo nautilius' and navigate to lost+found
[08:35] <Macer> then they released vista and it was like.. huh?
[08:35] <mick_laptop> Dan_: do you know how to do that?
[08:36] <Dan_> mick_laptop: I found an article on a blog how to do it but VLC on the remote machine wouldn't recognise /dev/video
[08:36] <Ringwaul> I'm not referring to the modern KDE; when I was comparing it to win7 I meant the version I used years ago in highschool
[08:36] <Macer> ooooh
[08:36] <Dan_> mick_laptop: what I'm trying to work out is what the device name is if its not /dev/video0
[08:36] <Macer> kde3 ;) yeah .. that too was similar to windows at the time
[08:36] <Macer> i thought kde3 was pretty good too
[08:36] <mick_laptop> Dan_: ssh -Y foo@bar.com cvlc://theip:you_need_to_lookup_the_listening_port
[08:36] <_sd325> I have problems with my ati card: http://pastebin.com/syi6TGsp what can i do? installling this driver: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.4.1&product=2.4.1.3.42&lang=English
[08:36] <Wamphyri> i'm trying to install a package requiring python-xml
[08:36] <Macer> but kde4.. actually.. kubuntu.. is absolutely awesome :)
[08:36] <Wamphyri> i can't figure out what the dummy package is for it
[08:36] <mick_laptop> or just start vlc and then choose the device from the menu
[08:37] <Dan_> mick_laptop: thanks I'll try that
[08:37] <mick_laptop> instead of cvlc
[08:37] <Macer> it just installed and worked... which going back to the early 90s when i was installing slackware .0000004 or something.. :)
[08:37] <ray_> I did, but there was nothing even when using the hidden option but the thing is I recently used the command line to retrieve bookmarks from the ./mozilla folder which wasn't listed when using the gui
[08:37] <mick_laptop> Dan_: might want to change the cipher to blowfish (it was faster last time i tried)
[08:37] <Macer> installing linux has come a long long way from booting 2 disks then figuring out wth you are suppoesd to do next
[08:37] <mick_laptop> Dan_: -c blowfish
[08:37] <ray_> But that was when I was dealing with bad sectors on these hard drive
[08:37] <Macer> all while using a 9600bps modem
[08:37]  * Macer gets nostalgic
[08:38] <mick_laptop> Macer: yeah, we gained some and we lost some w/ installing
[08:38] <Dan_> mick_laptop: actually one more pain in the arse, is the client machine that the person is using in winxp
[08:38] <Macer> mick_laptop: there have been far more gains than losses
[08:38] <Dan_> mick_laptop: they just wanna be able to connect to http: stream using VLC
[08:38] <Macer> and kubuntu is an amazing distro
[08:38] <mick_laptop> Dan_: you need an x server on windows and an ssh client
[08:39] <Macer> it is one of the few distros where you can take a complete institutionalized windows idiot and throw them on it and they wouldn't notice the difference :)
[08:39] <ray_> So I guess that is it then, so even though it says total 20 then there really isn't anything in there?
[08:39] <iAmerikan> Macer -- I've heard bad things about kubuntu
[08:39] <mick_laptop> Dan_: ok, then just make an rtsp stream
[08:39] <Jordan_U> ray_: What do you mean "says total 20"?
[08:39] <Macer> iAmerikan: well. i've been using it for quite a while and i have had nothing but good things come of it
[08:39] <mick_laptop> Macer: yeah, but installs used to be 5 minutes and i could use the same cd on PPC and x86
[08:39] <ray_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/599142/
[08:39] <Ringwaul> I basically have no idea what I'm doing in KDE 4 so if I could get 3.5 that'd be fantastic
[08:39] <Macer> i made all my boxes kubuntu ;)
[08:39] <iAmerikan> Macer -- what other distros you tried w/ kde?
[08:40] <Macer> gentoo... i used kde4 on debian as well
[08:40] <mick_laptop> iAmerikan: makes no difference really, the version of kde and what you feel comfortable w/ matter most
[08:40] <Macer> kubuntu was the easiest/best .. probably because kde is integrated into it
[08:40] <iAmerikan> mick_laptop -- Oh I know. But I've heard different distros start w/ different packages
[08:41] <mick_laptop> Macer: i found an old gentoo 1.1 alpha cd today while cleaning up - i got very nostalgic :)
[08:41] <iAmerikan> mick_laptop -- and I know open suse is really recommended for starting kde
[08:41] <Macer> the concentration is on kde and not getting whichever WMs going
[08:41] <mick_laptop> iAmerikan: you can configure all of them to act the same way
[08:41] <Dan_> mick_laptop: VLC can create that stream right? I guess the only problem is finding out what the /dev/video device should be
[08:41] <Macer> mick_laptop: omg. i will never forget that first gentoo install.. i think it took 10 hours to figure out what the handbook was talking about
[08:41] <Macer> :)
[08:41] <Macer> after install #500 it got easy tho
[08:41] <mick_laptop> iAmerikan: their package management is a pain and they don't have half the things packaged that debian has
[08:42] <razz1> is there a way to highlight text in  a text file, preferably with color or even change the text to italics?
[08:42] <iAmerikan> mick_laptop -- and I asumed since he went kubuntu instead of any-distro+kde, I assumed it was w/ the assumptionas that distros are --extremely-- different.
[08:42] <Jordan_U> !pm | ray_
[08:42] <mick_laptop> iAmerikan: so it makes it a bit of a PITA (I used to be a network admin that managed 70 people on suse)
[08:42] <Macer> iAmerikan: i would say they are
[08:42] <ray_> I did
[08:42] <Macer> iAmerikan: kubuntu was made with kde in mind
[08:42] <Macer> most other distros you need to add it somehow
[08:42] <iAmerikan> mick_laptop -- I bet. I'd go fedora if it was rpm based. but that's just me. And I haven't tried centos
[08:43] <iAmerikan> Macer -- I know :)
[08:43] <ray_> bye
[08:43] <iAmerikan> Macer -- I'm not denying that whatsoever.
[08:43] <Macer> iAmerikan: ah well.. i tried a few other distros with kde and kubuntu took the cake ;)
[08:43] <rach0> ray_, http://bit.ly/aAOY0B
[08:43] <mick_laptop> iAmerikan: they fit into a few categories: debian based + rpm based + no package management
[08:43] <ray_> I will read it TY
[08:44] <Jordan_U> ray_: I believe that number is some type of measure of "size".
[08:44] <ray_> OK
[08:44] <Macer> i have tried almost every os out there and kubuntu is the one i am sticking with until i die .. as far as a workstation or desktop goes... i will actually buy hardware built around it :)
[08:44] <iAmerikan> Macer -- Good to know :)
[08:44] <ray_> bookmarked
[08:44] <iAmerikan> mick_laptop -- sometimes, .tar.gz is better anyway :)
[08:44] <mick_laptop> iAmerikan: then you have the free vs commercial distros (redhat vs fedora) (debian vs ubuntu) (open suse vs suse enterprise)
[08:45] <iAmerikan> mick_laptop -- I was just asking about the rumor that the kubuntu packages weren't as good as suse.
[08:45] <TuffPoo>  hey guys im trying to get quck synergy to work on my comp its all installed but when i type in ip addresses it dosent move mouses
[08:45] <mick_laptop> iAmerikan: and then you have the ones that were just "left behind" like slackware and gentoo
[08:45] <Macer> i would have said rhel vs centos ;)
[08:45] <mick_laptop> yaya
[08:45] <Macer> heh
[08:45] <mick_laptop> there are too many distros
[08:45] <iAmerikan> mick_laptop -- is debian to ubuntu what redhat is to fedora?
[08:45] <iAmerikan> mick_laptop -- tbh I use arch :)
[08:45] <Macer> yeah.. what was up with that one
[08:45] <Macer> :)
[08:45] <Macer> debian vs ubuntu?
[08:45] <mick_laptop> ubuntu is a derivitive of debian
[08:45] <llutz_> !ot | Macer mick_laptop iAmerikan can you guys please take that to #ubuntu-offtopic?
[08:45] <iAmerikan> I know
[08:45] <TuffPoo> any help? im banging my head over this
[08:46] <ray_> That helps, TY you Jordan_U
[08:46] <mick_laptop> debian is more about being true to the beliefs of the free software foundation while ubuntu has more of a commercial interest (they are ok w/ adding proprietary drivers for intance)
[08:47] <Jordan_U> ray_: You're welcome.
[08:47] <ray_> take care
[08:47] <iAmerikan> sorry llutz_ mick_laptop isn't in there :x
[08:47] <iAmerikan> I agree mick_laptop
[08:47] <mick_laptop> i regress so that I don't get any more crap from the ops :P
[08:48] <iAmerikan> oh
[08:48] <mah454> How i can get permission of output locate command in on command ? for example "locate sample_file | ls -l"
[08:48] <iAmerikan> TuffPoo -- are there any errors visable?
[08:48] <TuffPoo> nope

[08:48] <alkisg> I'm trying to pass 'us,gr' as the keyboard layouts in Xephyr, but the comma is seen as a parameter separator so it doesn't work:
[08:48] <alkisg> $ Xephyr :1 -keybd ephyr,,xkbmodel=evdev,xkbrules=evdev,xkblayout=us,gr,xkboptions=grp:alt_shift_togge -ac -reset -screen 1024x600 -query 127.0.0.1
[08:48] <alkisg> [it gives me this warning]: Kbd option key (gr) of value ((null)) not assigned!
[08:48] <alkisg> Does anyone know the correct syntax?

[08:57] <TuffPoo> mick_laptop: its a gui interface of it my friends had it working on his linux desktops at work just cant get it to work on mine haha
[08:57] <top_ramen> hey Tuff, i wonder if we can get ubuntu on the evo lol

[08:58] <TuffPoo> top_ramen: no need to since it basicly runs linux already
[08:58] <top_ramen> iAmerikan, what installation size should i use?
[08:58] <iceroot> nikolai_: #ubuntu+1
[08:58] <TuffPoo> mick_laptop: wana help a brother out with that? haha
[08:58] <nikolai_> thanks

[08:59] <tsm_ice9> hey guys, so I threw together a computer with a new mobo (Sandy Bridge...), the onboard graphics work very nicely with Natty but I can't get full resolution with Lucid... however, I have a lot of stuff that I really need Lucid for... any ideas on fixing the resolution on lucid?
[08:59] <mick_laptop> split seemed to have done the trick
[08:59] <top_ramen> iAmerikan, i am using wubi to install ubuntu.... its asking for an installation size what should i choose
[08:59] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: Every time?

[08:59] <charlie_> hello, If I upgrade my Ubuntu from version 10.10 to 11.04, will all the softwares/applications that I install be remove?
[09:00] <TuffPoo> top_ramen: dont know im using rc4 on my phone ive been lazy
[09:00] <mick_laptop> Jordan_U: well, I can transfer the smaller files w/o a problem
[09:00] <Squall5668> no charlie
[09:00] <charlie_> oh, thank you

[09:01] <Jordan_U> mick_laptop: I'm pretty sure but not certain that email is not shown launchpad (by default).
[09:01] <iAmerikan> top_ramen -- do you want to have windows and ubuntu both? or only 1
[09:01] <mick_laptop> box froze

[09:03] <ns5> How to modify the thunderbird menu item so that thunderbird always runs in LANG=en_US.UTF8 environment?

[09:05]  * mick_laptop tries usb
[09:05] <rzx237> ns5: set the command to: "env LANG=en_US.UTF8 thunderbird"  I guess..
[09:05] <Sterist> hello! i just performed a grub2 update via Update Manager and the entire process is stalled without recognizing the final partition (windows 7 loader) can anyone please help?
[09:05] <iAmerikan> top_ramen --
[09:07] <mick_laptop> ns5: set your locale properly
[09:07] <ns5> my locale should be zh_CN.UTF8, but I prefer thunderbird to run in a pure english env
[09:08] <cmy1st> 안녕하세요
[09:08] <almoxarife> Sterist: tried updating via terminal?
[09:08] <mick_laptop> ns5: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Change_Default_Mozilla_Language
[09:08] <cmy1st> 안녕하세요
[09:09] <mick_laptop> i18n/l10n can be a pain
[09:09] <Sterist> almoxarife: isn't it too late for that? the grub files are already in-use by the stalled Update Manager
[09:10] <almoxarife> Sterist: no, run the update-grub , see if you get the results you are expecting
[09:10] <Sterist> sudo necessary for that?
[09:10] <almoxarife> Sterist: yeap
[09:12] <Sterist> almoxarife: worked but update manager is still stalled. should i be concerned? (x_x)
[09:12] <mick_laptop> Sterist: for how long?
[09:12] <eraggo> how i connect from win7 (without admin priviledges) to ubuntu as remote desktop?
[09:12] <mick_laptop> how big was the update??
[09:13] <Sterist> mick_laptop: ever since the grub2 update's turn came around
[09:13] <mick_laptop> eraggo: you have admin privs on the ubuntu box?
[09:13] <eraggo> yer
[09:13] <mick_laptop> Sterist: took a while on my box
[09:13] <silvery> Hi, please help me to find information on "language packs". I want to write my own and don't not sure where from I should start...
[09:13] <mick_laptop> eraggo: ok, define "remote desktop" - do you want rdp or just anything to manage it remotely?
[09:13] <Squall5668> eraggo: you need to download VNC, then from System in gnome, open your connections
[09:14] <Squall5668> download vnc, in windows i mean
[09:14] <Sterist> mick_laptop: i have a CPU monitor and i watched it go idle once it hit the windows 7 loader (in the +details drop-down)
[09:14] <almoxarife> Sterist: by update you are not talking 'upgrade'?
[09:14] <mick_laptop> eraggo: you have a number of choices, vnc, nx, x11 forwarding over ssh
[09:14] <mokang> HI
[09:14] <Sterist> almoxarife: i'm pretty sure it's just an update
[09:14] <eraggo> mick_laptop: nx?
[09:15] <mokang> ?
[09:15] <silvery> wrong door, sorry
[09:15] <mick_laptop> eraggo: https://code.google.com/p/neatx/
[09:15] <eraggo> and how i forward x11 over ssh... it is just for 1 program..
[09:15] <Sterist> almoxarife: it wasn't considered a "proposed update" so that pretty much elimitates upgrades
[09:15] <almoxarife> Sterist: here is what I think you will have in  the worse case scenario, broken pckgs, I assume the update did not include kernel images?
[09:15] <Ringwaul> So am I weird for thinking Ubuntu looks "too clean"? Like mac
[09:15] <mick_laptop> eraggo: ssh -Y foo@bar.com xeyes
[09:15] <Ringwaul> Everything is so hideously clean
[09:16] <JamezQ> Ringwaul: Your one of the masses
[09:16] <mick_laptop> Ringwaul: looks like a designer's desktop, right?
[09:16] <Ringwaul> yeah :/
[09:16] <eraggo> mick_laptop: and i can make that with putty?
[09:16] <mick_laptop> install fluxbox and then you'll feel right at home
[09:17] <mick_laptop> eraggo: no, you need an x server for windows for taht to work
[09:17] <eraggo> oh... and ofcourse i need to install it.....
[09:17] <mick_laptop> you can go w/ cygwin (install ssh-client and x windows) or d/l another open source x windows server for wndows
[09:17] <Sterist> almoxarife: i did a New Install of the latest Kernel Image and when i was just about to click Restart i saw the grub2 updates available and hit install. (all of this via Update Manager)
[09:18] <Sterist> almoxarife: either way that shouldn
[09:18] <Sterist> almoxarife: cause this kind of problem
[09:18] <mick_laptop> why has this turned into ##windows ಠ_ಠ
[09:19] <almoxarife> Sterist: when you manually updated-grub, did you see win7 shown as you expected to see?
[09:19] <Sterist> almoxarife: yesser (n_n)
[09:20] <eraggo> mick_laptop: so there is no way to make these without admin privs. cygwin needs to be installed :/ no standalones exist?
[09:20] <Sterist> almoxarife: just reboot and hope for best?
[09:20] <almoxarife> Sterist: I would be brave then, reboot, then cleanup what ever might have been broken in the process, synaptic will show broken packages
[09:20] <mick_laptop> there might be a portable version or something
[09:20] <eraggo> looking for it
[09:20] <mick_laptop> why not just boot into a live cd at this point? or just get admin privs
[09:21] <Sterist> almoxarife: i'll report back if my PC lives
[09:21] <mick_laptop> i get annoyed if i don't have admin privs
[09:22] <rudak> ^^
[09:22] <almoxarife> Sterist: I have faith :)
[09:22] <mick_laptop> as a network admin, i think i'm entitled
[09:22] <ubuntunoob> hello
[09:23] <ubuntunoob> anyone know how i can hide username in the terminal?
[09:23] <YankDownUnder> You can change the way the bash prompt displays...
[09:23] <Sterist> almoxarife: i have not rebooted but it appears Update Manager's install window has finished / closed on it's own.
[09:23] <Sterist> now for the reboot.
[09:23] <qin> ubuntunoob: PS1, that what you want to change in your .bashrc
[09:24] <ubuntunoob> I just want to hide the username, i did it before, but i forgot how
[09:24] <stimpie> ubuntunoob: see http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-linux-unix-bash-shell-setup-prompt.html
[09:24] <josephseraos> hi everybody, I'm trying to connect my network using command line, with iwconfig, but it's not working. I have a network called "J-dlink", using a password 7fmm3w4...7hg48. So, when I do this command: sudo iwconfig eth1 essid J-dlink key s:7fmm....48   iwconfig returns fallowing: Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
[09:24] <josephseraos>     SET failed on device eth1 ; Invalid argument. Do you know what does it mean? Thanks
[09:26] <mick_laptop> josephseraos: special characters that need to be escaped perhaps? (in your pw) -- i'm guessing
[09:27] <ii> hello
[09:27] <Sterist> almoxarife: all is well.
[09:27] <almoxarife> Sterist: cool
[09:27] <netkillers> so cold
[09:28] <Sterist> almoxarife: is there a command to check for broken packages?
[09:28] <o2oo> hello
[09:29] <quiescens> josephseraos: wpa encryption uses wpa_supplicant and is not configured using iwconfig
[09:29] <o2oo> I have bought acer 522 netbook and install ubuntu
[09:29] <almoxarife> Sterist: check in synaptic
[09:29] <o2oo> hello, I have bought acer 522 netbook and install ubuntu
[09:29] <netkillers> it is easy to install ubuntu maybe
[09:29] <o2oo> but the video driver give a water mark tells "hardware not supported
[09:30] <josephseraos> mick_laptop, I put ... only to explain that exists many others chars. If I put any password, iwconfig returns that message
[09:30] <o2oo> but the video driver give a water mark tells "hardware not supported" at the right-bottom
[09:30] <Sterist> almoxarife: once again all is well. thanks for your help :)
[09:30] <netkillers> change one video driver may solve the problem.
[09:32] <mick_laptop> josephseraos: i'm saying... what if you don't have a pw
[09:33] <razz1> I am copying ubuntu partitions to another disk using clonezilla, do i need to edit /etc/fstab or will it automatically add the new partitions?
[09:33] <osbeix> hi folks is there any native English speaking person here I need some help
[09:34] <YankDownUnder> Depends on yer perspective of "native" eh?
[09:34] <Squall5668> some of us are not that bad osbeix, you are being mean :)
[09:34] <osbeix> lets say he is from English speaking country
[09:34] <qin> window new hidden;window name web;exec -name elinks -nosh -interactive -window elinks $-
[09:34] <qin> hm, sorry
[09:34] <YankDownUnder> Does Australia qualify as an English speaking country?
[09:34] <osbeix> YankDownUnder: Yes Sir
[09:35] <rumpe1> lol... how about liverpool? ;)
[09:35] <osbeix> rumpe1: too :D
[09:35] <almoxarife> YankDownUnder: I am not sure it qualifies as native
[09:35] <YankDownUnder> Liverpool - regardless of geographic location, is excluded from this.
[09:36] <osbeix> it may sound stupid but I need to know...is "joint undertaking" useful in English and when you hear this phrase can you say it equals the phrase " joint venture"
[09:36] <mick_laptop> hmmm, this seems to be really "fragile"
[09:36] <YankDownUnder> "Joint Undertaking" and "Joint Venture" would be legalistic terms that can mean different things.
[09:37] <mick_laptop> i was able to get around the ethernet issue (crashing my box) -- now i'm doing some work on an iso and it is crashing again
[09:37] <almoxarife> osbeix: joint venture= business , join undertaking= social contract, ubuntu linguistics dept told me that
[09:37] <mick_laptop> anytime when i deal w/ any larger sets of data it seems to hang
[09:38] <botcity> josephseraos: if your using ubuntu10.10 you can use nmcli if your trying to configure manually without nmcli you have to stop network manager as it takes over!
[09:38] <YankDownUnder> Hmmm...right...well, when ya start talkin "Legalese" I usually leave the room.
[09:38] <osbeix> almoxarife: thank you
[09:38] <osbeix> YankDownUnder: thank you too no more questions
[09:39] <almoxarife> osbeix: please don't take that as knowledge, I don't know the answer to your question
[09:42] <razz1> I am copying ubuntu partitions to another disk using clonezilla, do i need to edit /etc/fstab or will it automatically add the new partitions? any suggestions
[09:42] <epzil0n> <3 Ubuntu 11.04 the beta 2 workes great, unity and the launcher workes sp much better then before.. good job! =)
[09:42] <iceroot> epzil0n: #ubuntu+1
[09:42] <Squall5668> razz1: im quite sure a grub-update will sufice
[09:43] <epzil0n> with what Squall5668?
[09:44] <Squall5668> chroot to it, and run a grub-update, still im not too sure on that one
[09:45] <razz1> Squall5668: grup-update is after booting in to ubuntu, I want to know if it will boot in the first place
[09:45] <Squall5668> that's why i said chroot to it, use a liveCD
[09:46] <mick_laptop> so my box is frozen (unresponsive to even the mouse) -- but my fan is really busy, do i wait?
[09:46] <jnlsnl_> 2 days!!!
[09:47] <epzil0n> what is your issue razz1?
[09:47] <razz1> epzil0n: I am copying ubuntu partitions to another disk using clonezilla, do i need to edit /etc/fstab or will it automatically add the new partitions?
[09:49] <epzil0n> Probably it will contain entrys from your previous hdd/boot order so you will have to update it and in the worst case even do a grub recovery through a live-cd

[10:03] <maedox> Anyone here running an IRC server? I want to set up a private one at work and I'm wondering what's the ircd of choice? There seems to be a bunch to choose from in the repos.
[10:03] <newubuntu> i am new to ubuntu and really need some advice
[10:03] <newubuntu> can anyone help me?
[10:03] <newubuntu> pl private chat me if someone can help me
[10:04] <Squall5668> newubuntu: you can ask here, so more ppl can help you
[10:04] <newubuntu> k, i juz installed ubuntu on my hdd partion E
[10:04] <newubuntu> i have windows XP installed on C
[10:05] <newubuntu> i wanna know if its dangerous for the data(movies, etc) in E
[10:05] <newubuntu> will they get corrupted...coz ubuntu is installed in that drive
[10:05] <keinyoung> how to change apt-get sources
[10:05] <GeissT> If you install ubuntu on that drive AFTER the movies they will be removed.
[10:05] <keinyoung> for ubuntu
[10:05] <Squall5668> newubuntu: well, if the ubuntu partition is not NTFS (and it shouldn't be) XP won't even be able to see it, much less harm it
[10:06] <mick_laptop> josephseraos: tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo ?
[10:06] <newubuntu> but ubuntu didnt require formatting that drive prior to installation
[10:06] <Squall5668> the E partition was empty right?
[10:06] <newubuntu> nope
[10:07] <rumpe1> newubuntu, system changes are always with some risk ... always do backups if you need your data
[10:07] <atlef> newubuntu, did you use wubi
[10:07] <newubuntu> filled with a lot of movies
[10:07] <atlef> 1wubi
[10:07] <newubuntu> i didnt use wibi
[10:07] <newubuntu> i downloaded the desktop version 10.10 iso file
[10:07] <newubuntu> used daemon tools on windows to virtually mount that iso and installed from there
[10:07] <Squall5668> so you did use wubi
[10:07] <newubuntu> i guess so...
[10:08] <lwizardl> wubi = windows based installer for Ubuntu
[10:08] <dpy> lol!
[10:08] <dpy> I do ufw enable, and I get like 100 iptable rules by default..
[10:08] <Squall5668> sorry, i can't really help, never used it myself
[10:08] <newubuntu> okay okay i used wubi
[10:08] <newubuntu> i juz wanna know if there's a risk in keeping two OSs on a single HDD
[10:09] <atlef> newubuntu, then all your files should be ok as ubuntu is installed as a program
[10:09] <newubuntu> i dont want windows to get ruined
[10:09] <dpy> dpy> lol!
 I do ufw enable, and I get like 100 iptable rules by default..
[10:09] <dpy> and it totally disables all incoming traffic
[10:09] <newubuntu> yes ubuntu IS installed as a program but...
[10:09] <dpy> first impression of UFW: not so uncomplicated, not convinced to use it...
[10:10] <newubuntu> one of my frns told me something like ubuntu creates 2 additional partitions for different purposes
[10:10] <newubuntu> so in total 3 partitions
[10:10] <newubuntu> i juz dont wanna ruin my data in the drive in which i installed ubuntu
[10:10] <atlef> newubuntu, not when you use wubi
[10:11] <Squall5668> he meant the linux swap, its installed as a file too in wubi
[10:11] <Squall5668> its in c:\ubuntu\disks\swap.disk (or E in your case)
[10:12] <newubuntu> okay so NOTHING is there regarding ubuntu in the C drive(in which ubuntu is NOT installed_) right?
[10:12] <abhinav> hi .. would this be a good place to ask questions regarding the firefox-4 PPA for ubuntu ?
[10:13] <maniakss> hello
[10:13] <newubuntu> @abhinav: dunno...
[10:13] <Ja23> Helllo!!! I JUST installed Ubuntu 11.04 but I still have the GNOME shell, not Unity... why might this be?
[10:13] <abhinav> I installed firefox-4 PPA (the official one as far as I can see) and the only binary I get is firefox-trunk. A few days back it was firefox4
[10:13] <abhinav> wondering if something is broken ?
[10:14] <Squall5668> abhinav: i think that's only in 11.04 sto try #ubuntu-devel
[10:14] <maniakss> Is there any drivers to connect my Nokia with Ubuntu? I mean copying files to phone
[10:14] <Ja23> squall5668: Is that channel for 11.04 questions?
[10:14] <abhinav> Squall5668: ok.. thanks !
[10:15] <Squall5668> its for development releases
[10:15] <abhinav> Squall5668: should I be using #ubuntu+1 instead ? or #ubuntu-devel
[10:15] <Squall5668> oh crap :P
[10:15] <maniakss> Okay, i connect it with Mass Storage

[10:18] <Ja23> Ohh, K
[10:18] <ArchangelSe7en> Ja23, log out .. change the DE from the dropdown menu and login
[10:18] <Ja23> ArchangelSe7en I did try that..
[10:19] <ArchangelSe7en> and ..
[10:19] <ArchangelSe7en> actually
[10:19] <user82> Ja23, no 3d hardware/driver?
[10:19] <ArchangelSe7en> atlef, 's suggestion is a good one
[10:19] <user82> unity2d is not yet done
[10:19] <Ja23> user82: yes exactly! I had an issue with that, but then I reinstalled the proprietary drivers, and I thought it would be fine
[10:19] <josephseraos> mick_laptop, Thanks, I didn't find it. But I'll try now
[10:20] <user82> well best to follow atlefs hint...but might be a reason
[10:21] <Ja23> user82: yeah, I'll try out that other channel
[10:21] <josephseraos> mick_laptop, I can connect using network-manager gui in GNOME, but I'm just studying a way to connect using only command line, because I entered in a Linux Group in my University course
[10:21] <anyingisye> hey watsup

[10:26] <snoeman> I am having trouble with samba. Where do I associate ip addresses with netbios names
[10:27] <chegibari> Hello
[10:27] <dpy> grrrr UFW #$##$!#$!#$
[10:27] <ArchangelSe7en> hey
[10:27] <user82> ArchangelSe7en, howd you write /quit withotu executing it?
[10:27] <chegibari> I managed to download all packages I need to install with the wget script. Now I'm having troubles actually installing them
[10:27] <ArchangelSe7en> user82, magic
[10:27] <ArchangelSe7en> :P
[10:27] <ArchangelSe7en> user82, //quit
[10:28] <ArchangelSe7en> we use that trick to show the n00bs how to do /exec and such
[10:28] <chegibari> Seems that there is no way to tell apt to "install these packages"
[10:28] <user82> ah ok..reminds me the c printf stuff :P
[10:28] <iceroot> ArchangelSe7en: we dont need the word "n00bs" here
[10:28] <user82> didnt know that
[10:28] <dpy> 'ufw disable' should do iptables -X  (as in: clean up the mess you create)
[10:28] <llutz_> chegibari: sudo dpkg file.deb
[10:28] <numberto> I just installed unity and not sure how to use it. In the dash when I type no programs appear to be showing
[10:29] <llutz_> chegibari: sudo dpkg -i file.deb
[10:29] <root__> hello anyone

[10:33] <ArchangelSe7en> you're welcome root__
[10:33] <root__> but its better if get an assistnt
[10:33] <headnotfound> hey there
[10:33] <llutz_> !manual | root__
[10:34] <marekw2143> but I can't use webcam - cheese shows "no camera found" info
[10:34] <dpy> GeissT: if somebody happens to ask about iptables on start up, could you please give 'm this link: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2009/02/28/standard-process-for-restoring-iptables-at-boot/    (It's the minimalist approach, while UFW is the maximalist/complicated approach (unlike its name))
[10:34] <ArchangelSe7en> marekw2143, try V4lv2
[10:34] <root__> im using backtrack
[10:34] <llutz_> !backtrack | root
[10:34] <KM0201> marekw2143, just looking at google hits on that device, you're not the only one.;
[10:34] <marekw2143> and lsmod|grep gspca shows: http://pastebin.com/hbcZCES4
[10:35] <ArchangelSe7en> thanassssss, I do not help in private .. please ask here
[10:35] <greentea> why don't you help in private
[10:35] <snoeman> How do I link netbios names with ip addresses in order to samba?
[10:35] <atlef> !backtrack | root__
[10:36] <KM0201> snoeman, better late than never.
[10:36] <thanassssss> i want to recover data in my /home
[10:36] <marekw2143> KM0201: but some time ago I nstalled that
[10:36] <marekw2143> ArchangelSe7en: what's V4lv2?
[10:36] <ArchangelSe7en> greentea, because that doesnt help ppl to learn stuff
[10:36] <GeissT> dpy: sure mate, ill copy and paste that.
[10:36] <dpy> tnx :)
[10:36] <KM0201> marekw2143, what do you mean "sometime ago you installed that".. i'm not sure how thats relevant to it working in linux or not.
[10:36] <GeissT> Are you expecting someone to come in?
[10:37] <ArchangelSe7en> marekw2143, Alt F2 "gstreamer-properties" enter / video tab / v4lv2 as your plug in
[10:37] <greentea> :D
[10:37] <snoeman> KM8201 I don't understand
[10:37] <KM0201> snoeman, smoeone had already triggered that for root__ ... i get the feeling he thinks he's a hacker because he figured out how to put an ISO on a cd.
[10:37] <dpy> GeissT: nah, it was just more of a statement
[10:37] <KM0201> !tab | snoeman and this might help you.. :)
[10:38] <dpy> GeissT: iptables is much cleaner than UFW imho
[10:38] <marekw2143> KM0201: I installed it once and i worked, now I'm working on another ubuntu installation, but don't remember how to install LIfeCam webcam
[10:38] <llutz_> KM0201: it wasn't snoeman triggering it
[10:38] <dpy> UFW is like the Windows approach  (I don't know how it works, but I expect it to work)
[10:38] <ross_> how do you surf the web "anonymously"? there's a program called identitycloaker - is that a linux equivalent of it?
[10:38] <KM0201> marekw2143, should've made better notes.. like i said, firing up google, shows a lot of people complaining about that device.
[10:38] <KM0201> llutz, sure it was.
[10:38] <dpy> iptables is like: I understand how it works, why it works and I want to use it
[10:38] <landingonwater> cant access or copy my encrypted home folder from live cd. i have the passphrase though. tried online guide. doesnt work. what can i do
[10:38] <ArchangelSe7en> ross_, use a proxy
[10:38] <thanassssss> how can i recover my lost data?
[10:38] <GeissT> dpy: Ive never had to delve into them yet, but im sure I might.
[10:38] <abountu1> i installed video chat for google on my ubuntu, and when I try to chat he other person can't hear me
[10:38] <marekw2143> KM0201: yeah, I bought it because it was cheap and offering good parameters
[10:38] <ross_> archangelse7ven how?
[10:39] <KM0201> oh woops, no it wasn't.. :)
[10:39] <abountu1> how can I test my microphone
[10:39] <ArchangelSe7en> thanassssss, google that
[10:39] <dpy> GeissT: but thanks anyway
[10:39] <GeissT> Thats fine. :)
[10:39] <ArchangelSe7en> ross_, google it .. you'll see
[10:39] <thanassssss> in btrfs
[10:39] <landingonwater> I cant boot my ubuntu because win7 mbr took over
[10:39] <KM0201> marekw2143, ok.. i don't know why that has any relevance to it working w/ Ubuntu..
[10:39] <maxylopes> Hello guys, I have Joystick, but I dont have drivers for ubuntu, when i try to install jscalibrator it writes Dependency is not satisfiable: libglib1.2 (>= 1.2.0) what to do?
[10:39] <marekw2143> ArchangelSe7en: after choosing V4lv2 and klicking "Test" following message box is shown: "Video for Linux 2 (v4l2): Could not open device '/dev/video0' for reading and writing."
[10:39] <ross_> any other suggestions?
[10:39] <ArchangelSe7en> landingonwater, boot a live CD and repair GRUB2
[10:40] <KM0201> !grub2 | landingonwater see the part about restoring grub from the live cd.
[10:40] <snoeman> I ask again. How do I link netbios names with ip addresses.
[10:41] <ross_> archangelse7en what do you think of tor?
[10:41] <marekw2143> ArchangelSe7en: and when runnign gstreamer-properties as root, and then clicking "test" for tesiting V4lv2 driver, message box with following text is shown: "Video for Linux 2 (v4l2): Error getting capabilities for device '/dev/video0': It isn't a v4l2 driver. Check if it is a v4l1 driver."
[10:41] <maxylopes> Hello guys, I have Joystick, but I dont have drivers for ubuntu, when i try to install jscalibrator it writes Dependency is not satisfiable: libglib1.2 (>= 1.2.0) what to do?
[10:41] <Squall5668> install dependency
[10:41] <ArchangelSe7en> why would you run it as root .. thats just pointless
[10:41] <ArchangelSe7en> and bad practice ..
[10:42] <marekw2143> ArchangelSe7en: I know
[10:42] <ArchangelSe7en> really ? :)
[10:42] <atlef> maxylopes, did you install the program joystick
[10:42] <KM0201> marekw2143, if you hit up google, the first or 2nd link has that device marked "solved".. i'm not reading all 7 pages though
[10:42] <maxylopes> and what next?
[10:42] <ArchangelSe7en> marekw2143, what KM0201 said
[10:43] <ArchangelSe7en> Google is your best friend
[10:43] <atlef> maxylopes, open a terminal and type jscal -c /dev/input/js0
[10:44] <maxylopes> what they mean to move axis0 to min position?
[10:44] <maxylopes> max position
[10:45] <Squall5668> left is usually min, and right is max
[10:49] <atlef> maxylopes, it lets you calibrate your joystick
[10:49] <maxylopes> da ladno?
[10:50] <maxylopes> no i am asking HOW To
[10:50] <maxylopes> idk where is max position
[10:50] <maxylopes> min pos
[10:50] <xeviox> hi guys, I tried to setup kerberos authentication (against a windows ad) now my sudo doesn't ask for the password anymore, any idea what's wrong with it?
[10:50] <maxylopes> axis0 axis1
[10:51] <atlef> maxagaz, i have no idea, just know about the program
[10:51] <atlef> maxylopes, , i have no idea, just know about the program
[10:51] <maxylopes> ok thanks
[10:52] <Squall5668> xeviox, just saying but did you try sudo -k?
[10:53] <xeviox> Squall5668: I didn't try
[10:53] <Squall5668> try that, then sudo again to see if it asks for a pass
[10:54] <xeviox> Squall5668: yes it does ?!?
[10:54] <xeviox> Squall5668: the weird thing is that it didn't ask after a complete restart
[10:54] <sveinse> does it exist a visual tool for upstart?
[10:55] <Squall5668> sveinse, i think its called BUM (boot up manager)
[10:55] <xeviox> Squall5668: there is another problem using "sudo" now asks me two times for "Password:" but not for "[sudo] password for user:"
[10:56] <xeviox> Squall5668: maybe that has something to do with kerberos and PAM authentication?
[10:56] <WindowNumOne> Hey everyone
[10:56] <newubuntu> anyone know of a good ball and paddle game for ubuntu
[10:56] <ArchangelSe7en> hey
[10:56] <Squall5668> maybe it does, i wouldn't know cause i haven't tried it ever :)
[10:56] <newubuntu> kinda like DX Ball?
[10:56] <xeviox> Squall5668: damn, it asks me twice on logon, too :(
[10:56] <erUSUL> sveinse: no that i know of
[10:57] <xeviox> Squall5668: seems like something went wrong -_-

[11:00] <newubuntu> @atlef: dont u mention sdl-ball
[11:01] <newubuntu> i installed and ran it about 15 mins ago
[11:01] <newubuntu> it caused my ubuntu to FREEZE!
[11:01] <elky> Jackneill, why?
[11:01] <YankDownUnder> Jackneill, You can edit the /etc/network/interfaces file and set it up as you so desire.
[11:01] <atlef> newubuntu, ok, sorry it showed up in synaptic
[11:01] <Jackneill> cause this is my problem
[11:01] <newubuntu> hey what exactly is synaptic?
[11:01] <newubuntu> :p im new, like my username says
[11:02] <Squall5668> synaptic package manager, its in System
[11:02] <elky> newubuntu, it's like add/remove programs
[11:02] <newubuntu> yeah i know
[11:02] <newubuntu> okay okay
[11:02] <newubuntu> i cant open it now coz some games are installing
[11:02] <Jackneill> auto lo

[11:04] <YankDownUnder> Jackneill, You can see how I've done one here: http://pastebin.ca/2050812
[11:04] <Houssem> Hello
[11:05] <atlef> Jackneill, you can also right-click the network icon in your taskbar and edit from there
[11:05] <jkb11> hi people!
[11:05] <jkb11> :-)
[11:05] <andy12345> hi, can I know in which files (I mean all the files in which) proxy settings are stored? ubuntu 10.10 64 bit
[11:05] <Houssem> Hi jkbl1

[11:08] <jkb11> anyone used unity?
[11:08] <andy12345> hi, can I know in which files (I mean all the files in which) proxy settings are stored? ubuntu 10.10 64 bit
[11:09] <jkb11> andy12345, have you tried gconf-editor?
[11:10] <jmvelasco> hello, I have these packages installed: libapache2-mod-php5, php5, php5-common, php5-mcrypt and php5-mysql, the current verion is 5.2.6 and I need to hold php <5.3 due to compabitily issues with other system. I'd like to upgrade my current system, so i am wondering if I have to hold all these packages or just one or some, in that case which ones ? thanks for your comments
[11:10] <andy12345> jkbill, nope?? whats that? (looks in man...)
[11:10] <jmvelasco> PHP Version 5.2.6-3ubuntu4.6 <-- current phpinfo() information
[11:11] <jmvelasco> please anybody could give me the point ?
[11:11] <jmvelasco> i have ubuntu-jaunty but i'd like to upgrade it, holding php vresion < 5.3
[11:11] <jmvelasco> please, which packages i'll need to hold ?¿
[11:12] <jmvelasco> does php5 hold maintain dependencies ?¿
[11:12] <GeissT> Yes
[11:12] <jmvelasco> GeissT, this is for me ?
[11:12] <jmvelasco> so i just need to hold php5 package ?
[11:13] <andy12345> jkbill, I have removed the proxy from everywhere, noproxy found in gconf editor also, I can use mozilla but when in terminal i type sudo apt-get update, its tries to connect to my old proxy, so I think somewhere the thing is not yet removed
[11:14] <jkb11> andy12345, open up a new gnome terminal and try the update again.
[11:14] <llutz_> andy12345: checked configs in /etc/apt?
[11:15] <andy12345> jkbill, still trying ot connect to old proxy
[11:15] <andy12345> lultz_, you mean apt.conf? yeah its blank
[11:15] <GeissT> jmvelasco, are you installing php or modifying ?
[11:16] <jmvelasco> i have installed yet, i want to upgrade ubuntu version from jaunty to the lat one, but need to hold php vresion under 5.3
[11:16] <Jackneill> hm
[11:16] <GeissT> Ah right, I dont have much of an idea with that mate.
[11:16] <GeissT> Sorry.
[11:16] <jmvelasco> libapache2-mod-php5, php5, php5-common, php5-mcrypt and php5-mysql <-- GeissT these are the packages i have installed
[11:17] <jmvelasco> no problem GeissT, i wonder if some buddy around could help me with this
[11:17] <jmvelasco> anyone ?
[11:17] <GeissT> If nobody here can help jump on the forums mate.
[11:17] <jmvelasco> this is an idea but i'd like to do it now :)
[11:18] <jmvelasco> that's why I came here :)
[11:18] <botcity> !pinning | jmvelasco
[11:18] <GeissT> Haha, thats cool. There are only a few people here, most are idling :D
[11:19] <andy12345> lultz_, you mean apt.conf? yeah its blank
[11:19] <andy12345> hi all , can I know in which files (I mean all the files in which) proxy settings are stored? ubuntu 10.10 64 bit
[11:19] <jmvelasco> thanks so much to this bot :)
[11:20] <botcity> jmvelasco:  also if you have synaptic manager you can lock a package through there.
[11:20] <andy12345> hi all , I have removed the proxy from everywhere, noproxy found in gconf editor also, I can use mozilla but when in terminal i type sudo apt-get update, its tries to connect to my old proxy, so I think somewhere the thing is not yet removed
[11:20] <thanassssss> how can i recover my lost data in btrfs?
[11:20] <lionzw> good day
[11:20] <jmvelasco> botcity, but i just need to hold php5 or all the installed packages ? this is my main question
[11:20] <keinyoung> hello all
[11:21] <JetBoyJetGirl> hi
[11:21] <sipior> thanassssss: depends on how you lost it, i would imagine.
[11:21] <jmvelasco> botcity, I mean, holding php5 will maintain dependencies ?
[11:21] <GeissT> Hey, just a quick question, using the upgrade method from the update manager will keep my files?
[11:21] <keinyoung> i have a xchat
[11:21] <lionzw> yes
[11:22] <llutz_> andy12345: "echo $http_proxy"  is empty?
[11:22] <Squall5668> jmvelasco: most likely, just confirm it before typing "Y" in apt-get or "Ok" in synaptic
[11:22] <GeissT> lionzw, that was aimed at me?
[11:22] <lionzw> GeissT , yes, but you should always keep a backup script running anyway
[11:22] <keinyoung> but i don't know how to use it ?
[11:22] <andy12345> llutz_, yep
[11:23] <GeissT> Thanks lionzw.
[11:23] <jarhed> eveving all
[11:23] <jmvelasco> Squall5668, I can't follow you, could you clarify it ?
[11:23] <jmvelasco> maybe is 'cos English is not my tongue
[11:23] <jkb11> hi jarhed
[11:24] <llutz_> andy12345: grep -ri "ip-or-name-of-your-old-proxy" /etc/* ~/*
[11:24] <jarhed> I was wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to use ffmpeg to convert an AVI to FLV on the fly. I.E. pipe the conversion straight to a flash player as it's happening?
[11:24] <Squall5668> if you hold a package, packages that depend on it won't be automatically removed, since it will still be there. But before confirming changes you can see them, to be safe, also: its not mine either :)
[11:24] <andy12345> llutz_, I had to play around the proxy setting to somwhow partially work on college wifi, now I am home and I don't need the proxy (used to update nicely here without proxy) so I am kinda stuck
[11:25] <botcity> jmvelasco:  holding packages means you will loose updates.
[11:25] <andy12345> llutz_, found the file, apt.conf.d
[11:25] <andy12345> llutz_, BRB 1 sec doorbell =)
[11:27] <andy12345> llutz_, can I comment it out with /*  here*/ so I can use it back when I get to college?
[11:28] <andy12345> llutz_,working thanks :D
[11:28] <llutz_> andy12345: not sure, but i'd use "#" to comment
[11:28] <andy12345> llutz_, i read somewhere linux is mostly written in c so i used /* */ it worked :D
[11:28] <llutz_> andy12345: thats why i asked to check apt-confs before
[11:29] <andy12345> llutz_ , love you *kiss* =D
[11:29] <llutz_> :D
[11:29] <jmvelasco> which php version comes with karmic koala version ?
[11:29] <andy12345> llutz_, if you have somemore time can I ask for mroe help regarding proxies? its not that urgent
[11:29] <jmvelasco> Squall5668, what is your tongue btw ?
[11:30] <llutz_> andy12345: just ask, but i'm not very good with proxies
[11:30] <jmvelasco> botcity, maybe you know this ?
[11:30] <JEEB> jmvelasco, http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/php5
[11:30] <JEEB> herp
[11:31] <jmvelasco> thanks JEEB
[11:32] <andy12345> llutz_, okay here it is, I usually connect to the internet on my college wifi where according to me the speed is blazing fast, I get around 2MBps download on windows, in ubuntu, I havent seen it cross 150KBps MAX for normal downloads and 15KBps for updates, I have changed my mirror to the nearest and played around with the proxy (my college wifi has a prxoy and ID pass for each student, the proxy is same for all), but the problem 
[11:33] <thanassssss> i lost my data when i do new install of 11.04 ubuntu i had a partiont /home in btrfs and i do new install with the same user nameup to the old. i didnt format the partion just put the same name. how can i recover my lost data?
[11:33] <andy12345> llutz_, it stops in between and goes back to 0% even the software manager downloads the pacakges partially and then BAM goes back to 0%
[11:33] <tgalal> I'm doing an installation with kickstart, everything is working perfect except that during installation some packages are fetched from the internet which take a lot of time. Any idea how can I prevent that ???
[11:33] <tgalal> doing a network installation
[11:33] <llutz_> andy12345: poor linux wifi-drivers maybe?
[11:34] <andy12345> llutz_ , well with the same drivers I am getting the max juice out of my home wifi 32KBps
[11:35] <llutz_> andy12345: sry no idea then.
[11:35] <jkb11> tgalal, when the installer don't find packages, they'll be fetched from the interweb
[11:35] <jkb11> :p
[11:35] <andy12345> llutz_, I will look into that, any heads up or directions? (how will I know the exact model of my card and where to get its linux drivers?)
[11:35] <thanassssss> i lost my data when i do new install of 11.04 ubuntu i had a partiont /home in btrfs and i do new install with the same user nameup to the old. i didnt format the partion just put the same name. how can i recover my lost data?
[11:35] <jkb11> andy12345, where was ur proxy variables hiding? hehe
[11:36] <andy12345> jkbll, apt.conf.deb
[11:36] <Soothsayer> I'm using an XFX 9600 GT graphics card and planning to switch from Windows 7 to Ubuntu, would there be a problems with a multi-monitor setup?
[11:36] <andy12345> jkbll, apt.conf.d i mean
[11:36] <jkb11> andy12345, ahh
[11:36] <jkb11> good for u then
[11:36] <llutz_> andy12345: sudo lshw -c network       or lscpi   should show you the wifi-chipset
[11:37] <andy12345> I really had to play around with them but sadly still doesn't work satisfactorily for updates and software manager
[11:37] <atlef> Soothsayer, you should be fine
[11:37] <atlef> Soothsayer, i have 9800gtx+ and two monitors working just fine
[11:37] <stReaKEr> Is there a GUI for watching over voltage and temps of the system?
[11:37] <tgalal> jkb11, the installer finds all necessary packages, however it prompts for more (optional ones) since if I disable internet connections, they are failed to be retrieved, however the system works after installation. How can tell the installer to not fetch those optional packages?
[11:37] <Soothsayer> atlef: I should just use the drivers from the nvidia website ?
[11:38] <thanassssss> nobody knows?
[11:38] <atlef> Soothsayer, use the built in "hardware drivers" program to install drivers
[11:39] <atlef> thanassssss, try in #ubuntu+1
[11:39] <Soothsayer> I see
[11:39] <atlef> !natty | thanassssss
[11:39] <Soothsayer> atlef: and how does it work, the taskbar extends itself on the second monitor ?
[11:40] <jkb11> tgalal, sorry i don't remember the settings.
[11:40] <jkb11> tgalal, i remember having to muck around with sources.list
[11:41] <jkb11> but that's as far i can remember
[11:41] <atlef> Soothsayer, not sure, i only have it on one monitor
[11:41] <tgalal> jkb11, it looks like it's performing an update actually, since it's trying to fetch linux image, firmware ..etc
[11:41] <jkb11> tgalal, just let it run if it isn't a PITA ;)
[11:41] <Soothsayer> atlef: but can it be extended onto two ?
[11:41] <jkb11> after all you're upgrading no?
[11:42] <atlef> Soothsayer, it might be possible, never tried that
[11:43] <tgalal> jkb11, yes, but I'm installing on about 25 machines, so fetching the updates from the internet isn't so efficient. I need to somehow redirect the requests to a local repo
[11:43] <thanassssss> thanks
[11:45] <jkb11> tgalal, reading sources.list manpage might be of help.
[11:45] <jkb11> tgalal, sorry.
[11:46] <poptran> Hi has anyone got his ubuntu too slow recently?
[11:47] <poptran> I've installed the new kernel and the update nvidia driver and still too slow
[11:47] <jkb11> wait till i get one of those i7's :D
[11:47] <jkb11> will be blazingly fast
[11:48] <jkb11> poptran, they've made bunch of changes in .38 i think but i think that'll only be in natty or so
[11:49] <jkb11> availbale .i.e..
[11:49] <poptran> jkbll, the thing is sometimes goes well but after some hours ... it gets really slow
[11:50] <jkb11> poptran, you can use various tools to investigate that: htop, iotop, top

[11:52] <poptran> ?
[11:52] <poptran> and set not effects for my desktop environment
[11:52] <jkb11> poptran, so you think its your graphics driver
[11:53] <poptran> well as soon as I reinstall my video driver
[11:53] <poptran> everything is much better
[11:53] <DogEars> Has anyone made one of these work? -- Bus 003 Device 002: ID 05e0:0300 Symbol Technologies

[12:31] <ullas> how are you
[12:31] <sec_goat> mornin!
[12:31] <ullas> you too
[12:31] <Dr_Willis> digging in for the tech support storm that will hit here when the next release comes out...
[12:32] <Dr_Willis> wow - getting 50MB/Sec to this new USB 3 Hard drive..  :)

[12:32] <ullas> anyone lisitening
[12:32] <bazhang> ullas, ubuntu support question?
[12:32] <Dr_Willis> ullas:  got a ubuntu support issue?
[12:33] <POOPHAMMER> howdy all
[12:33] <ullas> howdy
[12:33] <bazhang> ullas, hi
[12:34] <ullas> how are you
[12:34] <neirad> good
[12:34] <neirad> hbu?
[12:34] <bazhang> ullas, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic not here
[12:34] <neirad> I have some questions about reformatting my hdd, can anyone help me with that?
[12:34] <bazhang> neirad, using gparted ?
[12:35] <jatt> !ask
[12:35] <POOPHAMMER> explain away
[12:35] <Dr_Willis> claify the question and see.
[12:35] <ullas> sure
[12:36] <ullas> nirad what is it that you want
[12:36] <neirad> I'm running dual os right now, I had a severe virus that damaged my xp's registry, making it un-repairable. I recently switched over to ubuntu, I configured my jumpdrive for boot with ubuntu on it, and now I want to delete xp off of my partition, but I keep getting an error when I try to boot from the jumpdrive
[12:37] <POOPHAMMER> is your bios set to boot off that drive?
[12:37] <neirad> Yes
[12:37] <neirad> one thing about that though
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> clarify what you did to the jumpdrive.. You insrtalled linux to it? how?
[12:37] <POOPHAMMER> do you have a proper boot image on the drive?
[12:37] <neirad> is when I set it to boot of the drive, it thinks that the jump drive is a hard drive and not a removeable disk
[12:37] <neirad> I used the Ubuntu application to make it bootable
[12:38] <neirad> the jumpdrive
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> necrodearia: neirad why does it not being removeable matter?> You boot from it.. and dont remove it while its in use..
[12:38] <POOPHAMMER> shoudlnt it some up on the mBR or GRUB?
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> that tool; uses syslinux - not grub i recall.
[12:38] <neirad> Well I just thought that it was odd that my motherboard was considering it an actual hdd
[12:38] <POOPHAMMER> well i never really messes with that tool
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> My MB shows my flash drives in the 'hard drive' listing.
[12:38] <neirad> Would that be part of my issue? is that it doesn't use Grub?
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> in the bios/boot menu.
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> live usb dosent need to use grub. syslinux works fine for the job. You CAN make a bootable flash that uses grub2 to boot ISO files.
[12:39] <POOPHAMMER> are you able to get a live CD?
[12:39] <neirad> I'm not sure, where would I get one?
[12:39] <POOPHAMMER> burn it
[12:40] <Dr_Willis> neirad:  clairy what the actual problem is? the usb dosent boot? or what exactly? whats the error?
[12:40] <neirad> I tried burning the ubuntu iso onto a disc, but it kept freezing up whenever I did
[12:40] <neirad> it's an error the ubuntu displays when I click install
[12:40] <POOPHAMMER> are you trying to install ubuntu or use it live?
[12:40] <neirad> I don't remember exactly what the error is, I think something like there was a problem with the /root
[12:41] <neirad> I want to just clear the partition on my drive and install fresh
[12:41] <POOPHAMMER> install windows or ubuntu fresh?
[12:41] <POOPHAMMER> there are plenty of tools you can use to format a drive
[12:41] <neirad> ubuntu, I really could care less for windows at this moment
[12:41] <neirad> and I don't have a valid key for windows anymore
[12:42] <POOPHAMMER> well do you have a disc?
[12:42] <POOPHAMMER> for windows
[12:42] <ullas> thats right no worries install anyone fresh
[12:42] <neirad> Yes but I'm not sure if my cd drive is burning correctly
[12:42] <neirad> since that's what I've been trying to do for the past few hours is burn a disc of ubuntu
[12:42] <Dr_Willis> yow did you make the usb?  from what sort of disk/install/system?
[12:42] <POOPHAMMER> well if you can get into the repair console of windows you can refprmat the drive from there
[12:43] <neirad> I tried to do the cmd > format C: /q
[12:43] <neirad> but it said I couldn't reformat the system or something like that
[12:43] <jatt> what?
[12:43] <Dr_Willis> without telling us the error the USB is giving you . we cant really suggest much to fix that.
[12:43] <POOPHAMMER> did you do thise form within windows?
[12:43] <neirad> yeah I did it from cmd
[12:43] <jatt> ask in #windows
[12:43] <POOPHAMMER> use a recovery cy
[12:43] <POOPHAMMER> cd
[12:43] <POOPHAMMER> and do it from that in command mode
[12:44] <ImperialXT> Hey, I'm having problems with my headphones, when I plug them in my speakers dont get muted and sound just plays through both of them. So yeah, help would be appreciated
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> if hes not going to reinstall windows.. whats the point in formating C: :)
[12:44] <ullas> burn it  with a good medium and burn in lower speed
[12:44] <POOPHAMMER> that way ensures that your windows OS is not in use and the recovery cd is running the command prompt
[12:44] <SixtyFold> do you have a windows cd disc?
[12:44] <neirad> hmmm, well I don't have a recovery cd, I can try to do a fresh install, and if I get the error again, I can write it down and comeback.
[12:44] <Gnea> neirad: is the cd drive the only method you have of booting? what about a usb flashdrive?
[12:44] <SixtyFold> you straight up boot into an xp or win 7 disc
[12:44] <SixtyFold> you dont need a code
[12:44] <POOPHAMMER> thats what im tryingto tell him SixtyFold :P
[12:44] <SixtyFold> yah
[12:44] <SixtyFold> you just get to the format part
[12:44] <SixtyFold> kill it, load ubuntu, boom
[12:44] <SixtyFold> haha
[12:44] <POOPHAMMER> its really easy
[12:45] <neirad> that's what I've been trying to do haha
[12:45] <neirad> but it hasn't been easy
[12:45] <neirad> lol
[12:45] <POOPHAMMER> in fact you could format from within ubuntu as well
[12:45] <SixtyFold> its ghetto as what but it works everytime
[12:45] <atlef> neirad, try unetbootin
[12:45] <neirad> well it won't let me format
[12:45] <Dr_Willis> neirad:  what exactly is not metting you format?
[12:45] <Gnea> neirad: what are you using to make the cd with?
[12:45] <neirad> from within ubuntu since I'm using the hdd im trying to format
[12:45] <SixtyFold> if you use a windows xp/7 disc, there's no way it wont reformat it from in the installation process
[12:46] <neirad>  Dr_willis: I don't understand what you mean by metting
[12:46] <SixtyFold> no commands nothing, the GUI installer will do it for you
[12:46] <neirad> Gnea : I was using a Lite-DVD RW
[12:46] <Gnea> neirad: pretty sure he meant 'letting'
[12:46] <Gnea> neirad: okay, but what program?
[12:46] <neirad> oh
[12:46] <Dr_Willis> neirad:  what are you trying to format? If you want to install ubuntu. You boot the  cd. and run the installer.. then it lets you REPARTITION the hard drive. and format the filesystems as needed.
[12:46] <Rounin> Hello! Anyone know off the top of their head whether cryptsetup/dm-crypt with aes-cbc-essiv is available on the normal Ubuntu installation CD?
[12:46] <Rounin> I have an old alternative CD as well, but I'd like to throw it away
[12:46] <neirad>  Gnea: I was using the Ubuntu app
[12:47] <aurilliance> I restarted my Ububtu laptop this evening and it doesn't start up. I can press ctrl+alt+f1 to get to a shell, can someone walk me through how to get it running again?
[12:47] <Gnea> neirad: Ubuntu has many apps - how have you loaded ubuntu up? via cd? via hdd?
[12:47] <POOPHAMMER> whee this ATI driver install is taking ages!
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> aurilliance:  you mean to be saying 'X' is Not starting up. :) if youy can get to the normal console. then it did 'startup'
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> aurilliance:  try the 'startx' command and look for error messaghes for starters.
[12:47] <Feldegast> Rounin it will do home only, need the alternate for other mount points iirc
[12:48] <Rounin> Ah... But the software is at least there, Feldegast... Probably anyway
[12:48] <neirad>  Gnea: do you mean how I orignally installed it? because I'm currently using ubuntuu, but I have a limited amount of space (10gb) when my hdd is 80gb, Installed it with my flash drive but now I want to just delete xp
[12:48] <Rounin> I usually do it manually anyway; cryptsetup luksOpen blah blah
[12:48] <Rounin> More fun that way
[12:48] <Feldegast> Rounin i would use alternate cd
[12:48] <Dr_Willis> neirad:  so You  have a working Ubuntu Install? and want to delete the XP partition?
[12:48] <neirad>  Gnea: I tried using Brasero for the burning
[12:49] <neirad>  Dr_Willis: Yes that's what I want to do
[12:49] <aurilliance> Dr_Willis: yeah sorry. Startx crashes and says failed to activate core devices.
[12:49] <Gnea> neirad: ah okay, do you have enough space to install k3b?
[12:49] <Rounin> Thanks Feldegast; I'll keep it around just to be sure
[12:49] <Dr_Willis> neirad:  use gparted, and be sure you are not accessing the XP partiton. make sure its UNMOUNTED.
[12:49] <neirad>  Gnea: I have 10gb available atm
[12:49] <pygreen> neirad: use gparted, delete the xp partition and resize the ubuntu partition by using gparted from a live USB/CD
[12:49] <Gnea> neirad: awesome, install k3b then and use that to make the cd instead of brasero
[12:49] <neirad>  I have g-parted downloaded, can I put the iso on my flashdrive?
[12:50] <pygreen> yes, with unetbootin
[12:50] <Gnea> sure
[12:50] <Gnea> !usb | neirad
[12:50] <Feldegast> Rounin when i was playing with that i used the alternate cd to set up luks, was easy, not sure what encryption it used now though
[12:50] <Dr_Willis> neirad:  you can use unetbootin, or the usb-creator tool or other tools from Pendrivelinux to make the bootable flash drive.
[12:51] <neirad>  is there a way to test if it's bootable already? because I made it bootable when I put ubuntu on it (my flash drive) and I guess I'll go make some room and throw gpart on there and run it, will it still boot if I do it that way?
[12:51] <Feldegast> does ubuntu have something to defrag files on usb devices? iso's do not boot if fragmented
[12:52] <Gnea> neirad: yeah, plug it in and reboot, make sure the system is set to boot from a usb device
[12:52] <pygreen> neirad: you should see the bootable flag in gparted if it is bootable
[12:52] <Feldegast> neirad you can add files to a usb drive without breaking it's boot status
[12:52] <sevi> Hello, i have a question about starting a program from console: i use blender 2.57, but if i write "blender" in the console, blender 2.56 gets started. So i need to adjust the path correctly, can someone help me dooing this?
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> Feldegast:  ive never seen that need or heard of that issue.
[12:52] <Guest3210> hello
[12:53] <neirad>  Awesome, I'm going to go try and run gparted then, if I run into any Issues I'll come back and let you guys know..Thanks for all the help!!! :D
[12:53] <jatt> type
[12:53] <jatt> which blender
[12:53] <Gnea> neirad: cheers
[12:53] <aurilliance> Dr_Willis: I can sudo startx, but trying to start it as myself it crashes. Any suggestions?
[12:53] <Dr_Willis> sevi Give the full path to the proper blender binary perhaps /path/to/whatever/blender
[12:53] <Feldegast> Dr_Willis I made my usb hard drive bootable, added actual iso files and from the boot menu i can select which to boot, very handy, but they must be unfragmented to work
[12:54] <Dr_Willis> aurilliance:   try making a new user 'sudo adduser bgates' and see if that new user can do startx
[12:54] <Dr_Willis> Feldegast:  ive never seen fragmentation be an issue with boioting ISO files.. ive made 16GB flash drives that use grub2 to boot any of a dozen ISO files.. im sure some of them were fragmented.. and it was not an issue.
[12:54] <sevi> DR_Willis: jes, i'm doing this, to start it manually, but i would like to tell ubuntu, that 2.57 is my standart application instead of 2.56
[12:54] <Rounin> So hm, maybe it's not the USB drive, but the actual file that needs to be unfragmented, then
[12:54] <Feldegast> i can defrag the files indovidialy using a windows app, just wondering if there is a linux one
[12:55] <Rounin> As in, the file system on the ISO file might be fragmented?
[12:55] <Rounin> Could be, anyway
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> sevi you could add the directory to the proper binary to the head of your PATH.
[12:55] <Feldegast> Dr_Willis you might have been lucky, i found that if they were fragmented they fail
[12:56] <Dr_Willis> Feldegast:  how are you even seeing tha tthey are fragmented?   Ive seen no Defrag tools for windows fs's on linux.   i boot ISO files from ntfs and ext2/3/4 filesystmes all the time also. and im definatly sure they are not defragmented.
[12:56] <evilgeenius> I'm trying Natty but most of the packages I try to install complain about the missing libxmlrpc-c3  package.  It seems that in Natty it is called libxmlrpc-c3-0 instead which is causing a lot of problems.  Is there a way to fix this problem globally so that all my packages won't complain?
[12:57] <Feldegast> Dr_Willis let me get the refrence
[12:57] <aurilliance> Dr_Willis: trying...
[12:57] <atlef> !natty | evilgeenius
[12:57] <POOPHAMMER> something tells me my driver install is bugged
[12:58] <evilgeenius> atlef: yeah i know what Natty is
[12:58] <sevi> DR_Willis: sorry, didnt understand that, where can i do this? Another told me to put the path in a .bashrc file, what i did, with bo success
[12:58] <POOPHAMMER> been going on for over 20 minutes
[12:58] <evilgeenius> Just wondered if there is any easy fix
[12:58] <bazhang> evilgeenius, #ubuntu+1 for that
[12:58] <POOPHAMMER> ATI proprietary drivers :(
[12:58] <Rounin> Could you try doing an apt-get dist-upgrade or update-manager -d or using synaptic or something
[12:58] <Dr_Willis> sevi time to read up on the bash PATH variable.. and its PATH not path. that gets set.
[12:58] <Dr_Willis> !path
[12:59] <Dr_Willis> export PATH=/path/to/dir:$PATH
[12:59] <atlef> evilgeenius, and did you see the mention of going to #ubuntu+1 to talk about it?
[12:59] <sevi> ok, ill search in the web for that, thanks anyway
[12:59] <Gnea> POOPHAMMER: yeah, I've never had good luck nor heard anything good about ATI in linux... they've been bad and just getting worse, it seems.... nvidia picked up the slack some years ago and has been solid ever since
[12:59] <Dr_Willis> sevi its set in .profile i think.
[12:59] <Rounin> Hm... I have ATI now, and the proprietary drivers don't work anymore, but the open-source ones are OK
[13:00] <Rounin> Good for bzflag, anyway
[13:00] <aurilliance> Dr_Willis: my new user jbloggs can't startx either. It looks like some permissions have changed and do can't start anymore...
[13:00] <kukaan> Hi. How do I configure Ubuntu to awake from Suspend to Ram by moving or clicking with a USB mouse? At the moment i can only resume by pressing the Power button.
[13:01] <Gnea> Rounin: what about higher-end 3D?
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> aurilliance:  you may want to check the X logs for the exact error message and check the forumns for that  error message., perhaps pastebin the xorg logs for  the channel to see also.
[13:01] <Rounin> No idea hehe... I don't play a lot of games
[13:01] <Feldegast> Dr_Willis ....
[13:01] <Feldegast> While trying to run an ISO from USB, If you get a Boot error saying:
[13:01] <Feldegast> Error 60: File for drive emulation must be in one contiguous disk area
[13:01] <Feldegast> You'll need to defragment your ISO
[13:01] <Rounin> I wouldn't bet on it, Gnea :D
[13:01] <FloodBot2> Feldegast: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:01] <Feldegast> Dr_Willis that is from http://www.pendrivelinux.com/yumi-multiboot-usb-creator/
[13:01] <Gnea> Rounin: I tend to do more than just games, but they do tend to prove to be a reliable benchmark :)
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> Feldegast:  must be some issue depending on the flash drives.  ive never seen that error and i use dozens of the things.
[13:02] <Feldegast> Dr_Willis ok, issue happened on dvd iso's for me
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> defragment your ISO seems.. wrong.. defragment your 'drive' makes more sence..  i guess.
[13:02] <sevi> DR_Willis: is i can see, the .profile uses the .bashrc to get the path. So i think i have to set the path in .bashrc. But how and whrere?
[13:02] <POOPHAMMER> can anyone suggest good ati drivers alternitives for ubuntu?
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> sevi theres a export PATH statement some where in there.
[13:03] <Feldegast> that tool defragments selected files on the drive, not inside the iso
[13:03] <kukaan> How do I configure Ubuntu to awake from Suspend to Ram by moving or clicking with a USB mouse? At the moment i can only resume by pressing the Power button.
[13:03] <Rounin> Well, as I was saying, there's the open-source radeon driver... But whether it's really a good alternative is another matter, POOPHAMMER
[13:03] <Rounin> I can say that it's better than nothing
[13:03] <ImperialXT> Anyone around that knows a fair bit about alsa?
[13:04] <Dr_Willis> kukaan:  i dont think it can.   when suspended. the usb stuff gets no power I imagine.
[13:04] <POOPHAMMER> well i am using a 42 inch LED as my main screen here and these low resolutions are killing me
[13:04] <Ashraf> Hi
[13:04] <POOPHAMMER> i just want a higher rez
[13:04] <Feldegast> Kubbur and Dr_Willis the bios can be set to wake on usb inputs
[13:04] <Dr_Willis> POOPHAMMER:  you got the FGLRX and you got the Open sourced drivers.. thats abou tit.
[13:04] <kukaan> Dr_Willis: Yeah thats right but this I want to change :D it is possible with other distributions, too
[13:04] <Ashraf> I am from Bangladesh
[13:05] <POOPHAMMER> is there any way to up my resplution?
[13:05] <POOPHAMMER> *Resolution
[13:05] <sevi> Dr_Willis_: no there isnt, so i tried with : export PATH=</home/sevi/Programme/blender-2.57-linux-glibc27-i686/blender2.57:$PATH
[13:05] <Ashraf> any body Bangladeshi is there ??
[13:05] <bazhang> Ashraf, this is ubuntu support
[13:05] <pygreen> kukaan: i have an option to boot by clicking with the mouse in the bios, i don't know if that also works for waking up from suspended
[13:05] <ImperialXT> POOPHAMMER: what's wrong with the default ones?
[13:05] <Dr_Willis> sevi you dont want <> in the path vasriable.. and you must log out/back in for the new path to take affect
[13:06] <POOPHAMMER> makes fonts look funny
[13:06] <Dr_Willis> sevi 'echo $PATH' to see your current path
[13:06] <sevi> dr._willis: ok i'lll give that a try
[13:07] <Ashraf> I cant install any software so can i get help?
[13:07] <Dr_Willis> Ashraf:  clarify what you are trying to install..
[13:07] <Dr_Willis> 'any software' is rather broad.
[13:07] <damiano> Hello everybody
[13:07] <kukaan> pygreen: No during suspend to ram the bios isn't active as far as I know. On resuming the processor and everything is just turned on but the OS is in the Ram and there is nothing not eaven the BIOS need to be loaded
[13:07] <m4k> can any one help me in writing simple shell script to download a file and saving it into another directory
[13:07] <Ashraf> Bangla writing software
[13:07] <Ashraf> Avro
[13:08] <Sandeep_Kr_FOSS> Is there any one who can help me ?? I am having problems with "Banshee Music Player"	
[13:08] <ImperialXT> Sandeep_Kr_FOSS:  you'll need to elaborate on what the problems are
[13:08] <schnuffle> m4k: you mean how to use wget?
[13:09] <Dr_Willis> Ashraf:  so you mean 'cant install any software' to actually mean you cant install a specific software program.. 'avro'
[13:09] <damiano> I have a very very strange problem... i'm using proftpd i have created an user with an home /home/website/vhosts/myuser I sent 770 permission to this directory, and created myuser:mygroup  then added proftpd user to mygroup group and then...i always get PERMISSION DENIED
[13:09] <m4k> schnuffle: i can use wget on terminal ... I want to make a shell script for cron job, and I dont know how to create a shell script
[13:09] <Ashraf> yes
[13:09] <damiano> could someone help me?
[13:10] <Dr_Willis> m4k:  like 3 lines -->  #!/bin/sh    cd /path/to/go    wget thething
[13:10] <pygreen> kukaan: in the ubuntu help is written: You can wake the computer by pressing a key or clicking the mouse.
[13:10] <ImperialXT> Dr or just use the option for wget to point it to the download dir
[13:10] <Dr_Willis> m4k:  make it in a file. make it executable,. chmod +x thescript   give cron the FULL path to the script
[13:10] <kukaan> pygreen: Well thanks, but that might be written but it is not so in reality :D
[13:10] <damiano> someone read my messages?
[13:10] <schnuffle> m4k: Willis gave you the basics
[13:11] <ImperialXT> damiano:  we're reading them
[13:11] <ImperialXT> be patient
[13:11] <damiano> ah ok, i thought i had problem with IRC
[13:11] <damiano> ok
[13:11] <damiano> i wait, sorry
[13:12] <Dr_Willis> Not a lot of people use FTP servers these days, or at least dont run their own. :)
[13:12] <ImperialXT> I'm having problems with my headphones, when I plug them in my speakers dont get muted and sound just plays through both of them. Tried so many things that I really dont want to make a list.
[13:12] <schnuffle> damian: so the user you created and myuser are different
[13:12] <Dr_Willis> down with ftp.. up with ssh :)
[13:12] <sevi> dr_willis: ok, i have written:  export PATH=/home/sevi/Programme/blender-2.57-linux-glibc27-i686/blender2.57:$PATH  to the .bashrc file, logged out and in again, but its not working, sorry i'm new on ubuntu, have no idea what i'm really dooing
[13:12] <damiano> eheh
[13:12] <pygreen> kukaan: hmm, my ubuntu always hangs when i try to suspend, so i have never tried that :D
[13:12] <korst3n> Hi, is it possible to install ubuntu on a seondary harddisk while on windows?
[13:12] <Dr_Willis> sevi try 'source .bashrc'  and then echo $PATH
[13:13] <ImperialXT> !wubi | korst3n
[13:13] <Dr_Willis> sevi:  you did put that at the END of the .bashrc ?
[13:13] <damiano> I created an user with an home /home/website/vhosts/myuser   (before i ve created a group named mygroup)..........then added myuser to this group
[13:13] <damiano> so i have drwxr-x--- 2 myuser mygroup 4096 2011-04-26 12:04 web
[13:13] <schnuffle> damian: sounds like you deal with virtual users, a good way is to use ftp users stored in a database
[13:14] <damiano> then....added proftpd USER to mygroup
[13:14] <rileyp> anyone with lirc skills lircing about! I need some help controling my yamahas amps volume
[13:14] <kukaan> pygreen: Yeah crashing on suspending was the reason why I changed to Gentoo :D but I want to configure someone's PC. Well I will check the BIos forums and so on. thanks.
[13:14] <damiano> yes, virtual hosts, but i don't understand why it doens't run
[13:14] <damiano> always permission denied
[13:14] <ImperialXT> rileyp: my lirc skills are minimal but I've played with it a bit recently
[13:14] <sevi> DR._Willlis: jes , it is on the end of the file, echo gives me back :;
[13:14] <rileyp> I have irsend working fine and it controls volume great
[13:14] <sevi> /home/sevi/Programme/blender-2.57-linux-glibc27-i686/blender2.57:/home/sevi/Programme/blender-2.57-linux-glibc27-i686/blender2.57:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games
[13:15] <damiano> are important the permission BEFORE ?
[13:15] <schnuffle> damian: sure the ftp server is running under the user you added to mygroup?
[13:15] <rileyp> but when I try and use my remote to control the rsponse is shite its slow and inconsistsant
[13:15] <damiano> yes, sure
[13:15] <damiano> let me do an ps aux
[13:15] <damiano> one moment
[13:15] <schnuffle> paste your proftpd setup
[13:16] <schnuffle> damiano: not so easy cause proftpd switches users when somebody is loggin in
[13:16] <damiano> YES: proftpd  28006  0.0  0.0  74612  1908 ?        Ss   Apr24   0:26 proftpd: (accepting connections)
[13:16] <rileyp>  I have created a couple of keyboard shortcuts to blast Vol + and Vol- to the the yammy  receiver and when pressing the shortcuts its works a treat...virtually the same as using the yamaha remote
[13:16] <damiano> is running with proftpd
[13:16] <damiano> (user=
[13:16] <rileyp> But when I use my remote to control the shortcuts it shite
[13:17] <damiano> schnuffle: the question is if i added proftpd to mygroup and set RX permission why i get permission denied
[13:17] <schnuffle> Have you tested that the proftpd user has enough rights to the folders above? Because all of the path needs to have the correct permissions
[13:18] <damiano> right
[13:18] <damiano> do i have to change the permission on the directory below ?
[13:18] <schnuffle> Just try a sudo proftpd cd /yourpath/
[13:18] <schnuffle> damian: Yes but it's even better to let proftpd do the user switch to myuser
[13:18] <damiano> i mean.... /home/website/vhosts/myuser has the correct eprmission but the prpblem could be that  /home/website/vhosts HAS other permission ?
[13:19] <damiano> yes
[13:19] <schnuffle> damian: Exactly
[13:19] <damiano> i want to do that
[13:19] <schnuffle> So your setup is wrong
[13:19] <damiano> when an user will log proftpd automatically set the user and chroot his home directory...but know ther are these permission problems
[13:19] <damiano> ok, so do i have to see the permission below
[13:20] <ImperialXT> Anyone around that knows a fair bit about alsa?
[13:20] <damiano> i could add proftpd user to my web server user and then set RX permission, right?
[13:21] <damiano> (i'm tring)
[13:22] <schnuffle> damian: You have the wrong aproach. Instead of trying to tweak the permissions settings, the better way is just to let proftpd switch to the user. So if myuser logs in, the ftp process taking care runs under uid myuser
[13:23] <damiano> yes, i'm doing it...but i get this problem because the HOME of my user are on a "protected" directory
[13:23] <damiano> i'm working with the permission....proftpd take care of that (switch user)
[13:23] <schnuffle> What defines protected?
[13:24] <damiano> example... i have mywebserver:mywebserver
[13:24] <damiano> so user:group
[13:24] <schnuffle> damian: Okay but if proftp switches user, it doens't make sense to add the proftpd user to any group?
[13:24] <damiano> then i have set 700, so nobody can see after this directory
[13:24] <Renski> If I have a 64bit ubuntu server, can it handle a single 6TB volume, could I have a single 5TB file?
[13:24] <damiano> schnuffle take a look at the last message i sent to you
[13:25] <johndarc> Renski, Yes.
[13:25] <sipior> Renski: that depends on the filesystem you are using.
[13:25] <Pici> Renski: Depends on the filesystem, but for most modern ones, it should be fine.
[13:25] <o2oo> hi, who knows where is the ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver in the ubuntu source?
[13:25] <Renski> ext3 ?
[13:25] <o2oo> I want to download it byhand
[13:26] <schnuffle> damian: You tell me that you want proftpd to switch the user, but I'm not sure that actually it's configured that way
[13:26] <sipior> Renski: if the block size is bigger then 2K, should be fine.
[13:26] <o2oo> hi, who knows where is the ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver in the ubuntu source? I want to download the driver by myself.
[13:26] <OY1R> 5tb that's one huge file indeed.
[13:26] <johndarc> Renski, you could check that on wikipedia. but yes
[13:26] <Renski> I am, says max file size 16GB to 2TB ?
[13:26] <johndarc> single file database?
[13:26] <Renski> nope, a single file of binary data
[13:26] <johndarc> depends on the block size, as sipior said, I think
[13:27] <o2oo> 0Y1R, hi, you know?
[13:27] <sipior> Renski: actually, you're correct, 5TB is too big.
[13:27] <damiano> it's configured, but proftpd is not able to swithc to the user because the home of this user are in a protected zone...with protected i mean....the below directories have 700 permission, so nobody can see them
[13:27] <OY1R> i know what ?
[13:27] <sipior> i was thinking 2^32 blocks, but that's the maximum *filesystem* size.
[13:27] <Renski> what file system type would support 5TB?
[13:27] <damiano> i'm changing the permission to 750
[13:27] <o2oo> hi, who knows where is the "ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver" in the ubuntu source? I want to download the driver by myself.
[13:27] <Renski> (file size)
[13:27] <damiano> understand?
[13:27] <sipior> Renski: ext43 should, zfs, btrfs, xfs, &cet.
[13:27] <Pici> Renski: ext4
[13:27]  * Renski googles
[13:28] <johndarc> If you are workign on huge files, it should be a good reason to choose xfs, no?
[13:28] <Renski> says if I go for a 4k blocks I can have 16 TB
[13:28] <Renski> johndarc: no idea. What is good about xfs?
[13:28] <sipior> Renski: max *filesystem* size, not maximum file size! those are different!
[13:28] <schnuffle> damian: Not really, becuse if you create a new uid/gid for every user 770 would be alright as well and proftpd wouldn't have any problems when being executed with excatly this uid/gid
[13:29] <Cube``> how can i check which version of ubuntu i runß
[13:29] <Cube``> ?
[13:29] <m0ksha> hi, I am having trouble with my audio driver, output works fine but i can't get the mic to work .. can anyone help please? thanks.
[13:29] <Renski> sipior: I know, thats why I reading the wikipeda line for ex4 that says "max file size"
[13:29] <damiano> sure, but i did a mistake i changedd all in 700 :D
[13:29] <Fleck> Cube`` lsb_release -a
[13:29] <damiano> ahahah
[13:29] <damiano> paranoid :D
[13:29] <schnuffle> damian: then change it back :)
[13:29] <Cube``> Fleck: thx
[13:29] <damiano> yes
[13:29] <damiano> :)
[13:29] <OY1R> xfs can handle 8 million TB files.
[13:30] <sipior> Renski: well, there you go.
[13:30] <Renski> OY1R: yeah, that should do the trick :)
[13:30] <o2oo> hi , how could I find a software's binary in a Ubuntu-Source? for example http://http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu/dists/
[13:30] <OY1R> indeed
[13:30] <Pici> o2oo: http://packages.ubuntu.com is a good place to start

[13:31] <brez> Hey -- I have openSSH installed on my Ubuntu machine, which I SSH to over my LAN -- my ISP sucks, so when my connection drops out,my Ubuntu box randomly gets assigned a dynamic IP and I have to go to the SSH config and update the listenaddress, is there anyway around this?
[13:31] <aurilliance> Dr_Willis: fixed it. The permissions on my /tmp directory had changed during an update and gconf couldn't access it. Seems dodgy (why would the permissions change?) But sudo chmod 777 /tmp fixed it for me.
[13:31] <chriszroyce> hi
[13:31] <ImperialXT> brez: why not just restrict it to listen to the local network only?
[13:32] <ImperialXT> instead of a specific local ip
[13:32] <chriszroyce> hi
[13:32] <ImperialXT> or give it a static ip
[13:32] <chriszroyce> anyopne from philippines
[13:32] <brez> ImperialXT: can't do static, how would I go about making it listen to loca only?

[13:45] <delinquentme> so i am in the process of reinstalling grub ... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling GRUB 2 ... the last time i was doing this someone mentioned that one of these were safer than the other .. anyone happen to know which method is best 1 2 or 3 ?
[13:46] <delinquentme> i think it was using CHROOT?
[13:46] <Feldegast> i didn't use charoot
[13:47] <zorion> sipior,  thx ,i see
[13:49] <Feldegast> delinquentme i worked from a recovery cd
[13:49] <Feldegast> delinquentme method 2
[13:49] <o2oo> hi, who knows where is the hardware drivers in http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/
[13:49] <delinquentme> kk i think thats what im gonna go with .. thanks Feldegast
[13:50] <Feldegast> delinquentme good luck
[13:50] <terry>  delinquentme I think the recovery process will automatically chroot to the HDs filesystem.
[13:50] <delinquentme> actually the tutorial just said that those with a separate /boot partition might have better luck using the straight up CHROOT
[13:51] <delinquentme> decision made ^_^
[13:51] <Feldegast> fixing grub because of windows etc is such a common thing it'd be nice if the docs were on the recovery cd
[13:52] <Feldegast> delinquentme mine was separate
[13:52] <hyndra> vmware doesnt work on kububtu  what can i do __????
[13:52] <delinquentme> Feldegast, oh you had your boot on a separate partition??
[13:52] <Feldegast> you just need to mount the / and /boot partitions in the correct places
[13:52] <terry> delinquentme: http://pastebin.com/eEy6J5ik
[13:52] <hyndra> it works   creates the vmdisk   takes a lot of time to do this, and when i run it stays  balck
[13:53] <hyndra> virtual box and qemu dont run toooo
[13:53] <hyndra> what can ido
[13:53] <Feldegast> mount / then cd to it then mount /boot inside it then you are set
[13:53] <Feldegast> delinquentme if you want i can look for the howto i used....
[13:54] <delinquentme> nah its cool i think im good :D
[13:54] <hyndra> help pls
[13:54] <terry> delinquentme: Did you see my notes?
[13:54] <Feldegast> delinquentme good luck
[13:54] <ImperialXT> Anyone around that knows a fair bit about alsa?
[13:54] <ImperialXT> I'm having problems with my headphones, when I plug them in my speakers dont get muted and sound just plays through both of them. Tried so many things that I really dont want to make a list.

[13:55] <Cube``> how can i get rid of the window title using firefox? im on xfce

[14:03] <delinquentme> ???
[14:03] <johndarc> delinquentme, what are you trying to mount?
[14:03] <delinquentme> unf-ubu@unf-ubu:~$ sudo mount --bind /dev  /mnt/dev
[14:03] <ImperialXT> escott: hmm never heard of that one before
[14:04] <joni> hi..
[14:04] <Cube``> how can i get rid of the window title using firefox? im on ubuntu
[14:04] <delinquentme> johndarc, http://pastie.org/1835097
[14:04] <poop> i am trying to achieve a resolution of 1440 x 900 on my desktop and i cannot seem to get it down
[14:04] <joni> help please
[14:04] <delinquentme> so i think this means that i dont have a separate boot partition?
[14:04] <poop> i generated a xorg.conf file and edited it so (or so i thought)
[14:05] <delinquentme> i thought i did /;
[14:05] <terry> delinquentme: fdsik -l
[14:05] <johndarc> unf-ubu@unf-ubu:~$ sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt
[14:05] <escott> ImperialXT, its a bit confusing at first but it allows you to manually adjust how the sound is hooked up in the soundcard. if you have a newer laptop the alsa developers probably don't know what the correct configuration is when you plug in the headphones, you can configure it correctly and send them the info
[14:05] <delinquentme> terry, yeah thats the pastie thats up
[14:05] <johndarc> delinquentme, did you check /mnt?
[14:05] <johndarc> your NTFS should be in there
[14:05] <joni> my sound is not detected, how to solve it ?
[14:05] <delinquentme> i get a fail on mount
[14:05] <johndarc> no, you didn't
[14:06] <Macer> wish i could put kubuntu on my n900
[14:06] <Macer> :)
[14:06] <delinquentme> johndarc, yeah both NTFS es are up there
[14:06] <jatt> you can put debian on your n900
[14:06] <terry> delinquentme: You may have to create mount point first
[14:06] <jatt> but it's slow
[14:06] <johndarc> delinquentme, so what's the problem?
[14:06] <delinquentme> sec..
[14:07] <johndarc> mkdir /mnt/ntfs1 \ mkdir /mnt/ntfs2 \ mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/ntfs1 \ mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/ntf2
[14:07] <escott> delinquentme, are you doing bind mounts for a chroot environment?
[14:07] <fuzzybunny69y> la
[14:07] <escott> joni, could you be more specific
[14:08] <delinquentme> escott, i am :D
[14:08] <delinquentme> yeah i ran some shitty commands trying it over again
[14:08] <joni> i have installed ubuntu 10.10 n i am a new user of ubuntu

[14:09] <soreau> ! sound | joni
[14:09] <terry> joni: lspci   #Find the sound card info
[14:09] <escott> delinquentme, so it should be mount --bind /dev /mnt/ubuntu/dev or some such variant
[14:10] <delinquentme> updates: http://pastie.org/1835097
[14:10] <delinquentme> so i run " sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt"
[14:10] <delinquentme> everythings cool
[14:11] <delinquentme> but i then run "sudo mount --bind /dev  /mnt/dev" and it says that /mnt/dev doesnt exist
[14:11] <joni> how i can find my sound card info ? what should i type in terminal ?

[14:11] <m0ksha> . Please help
[14:11] <escott> delinquentme, what is on sdb1 seems to small
[14:11] <Feldegast> you need to create the directory inside /mnt
[14:11] <terry> delinquentme: sdb5 is your linux partition
[14:12] <Renski> ubuntu now comes with SSLv2 support removed, how do I get it back?
[14:12] <escott> joni, m0ksha ImperialXT sorry

[14:12] <escott> delinquentme, its partitioned wrong
[14:12] <delinquentme> oh
[14:12] <delinquentme> lol
[14:12] <a> Hi
[14:12]  * delinquentme points at the other guy
[14:12] <a> hi all
[14:13] <escott> delinquentme, sdb1 is NTFS which is not right for grub
[14:13] <a> / a
[14:13] <Guest55226> /a
[14:13] <delinquentme> lol ok so yeahh .. should i just do a reinstall?
[14:13] <Guest55226> \\a
[14:13] <delinquentme> like wipe that shit out?
[14:13] <Guest55226> :(
[14:13] <escott> ImperialXT, what soundcard do you have?
[14:13] <kpettit> good morning.  Anybody know if there is a way in gnome3 to make application rememeber where they were previously?  I want them to always open to the same spot on my desktop
[14:13] <joni> i can't catch your word escott, sorry, i am really a new user in ubuntu
[14:13] <escott> joni, m0ksha assuming you have a newer laptop with intel?
[14:13] <delinquentme> escott, so yeah this HD has been through a little bit
[14:13] <ImperialXT> escott:  erm what was it again AC889A or something
[14:13] <ImperialXT> I think
[14:13] <Feldegast> delinquentme try my meythod? use a recovery cd?
[14:13] <ImperialXT> let me check
[14:14] <escott> delinquentme, I wouldn't wipe it out unless you can figure out what is on it first
[14:14] <joni> yes, intel p1600 @ 200GHz
[14:14] <izinucs> kpettit: I can't even get that to happen in old gnome on a dual monitor setup..
[14:14] <delinquentme> oh this is a work comp .. all my data is on github :D
[14:14] <ImperialXT> escott: ALC889A
[14:14] <escott> ImperialXT, so thats some kind of AC97
[14:14] <m0ksha> escott: Toshiba Qosmio X505-Q885
[14:14] <kpettit> izinucs, bummer.  I have a dual-screen too.  It's annoying not to have that.  There has to be a way...
[14:14] <delinquentme> Feldegast, well the comp has been wonky since last install
[14:15] <escott> m0ksha, from a command line can you run lspci and look for the soundcard or pastebin it here
[14:15] <izinucs> kpettit: yea.. and they tend to open in exactly the wrong spot no matter where you start
[14:15] <ImperialXT> escott: you'd know better than me lol, I'm not all that familiar with the exact details
[14:15] <escott> joni, if you could also run lspci and pastebin it over
[14:15] <m0ksha> escott: 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 05)
[14:15] <Feldegast> delinquentme sounds like a fresh install might be good then
[14:15] <kpettit> izinucs, I know exactly what you mean.  It's very annoying on large screens.
[14:15] <joni> my laptop is toshiba c640
[14:15] <tung_> ?
[14:16] <escott> ImperialXT, surprising you are having problems thats an old card. its when you plug in the headphone?
[14:16] <ImperialXT> yeah
[14:16] <ImperialXT> the headphone jack
[14:16] <ImperialXT> is on the case
[14:16] <ImperialXT> though
[14:16] <izinucs> kpettit: I haven't tried unity on a dual screen setup.. but it has its annoyances as well.
[14:16] <ImperialXT> not on the motherboard, but it's hooked up fine
[14:17] <escott> joni, can you open a terminal and type "lspci[ENTER]" and copy/paste that here
[14:17] <kpettit> izinucs, I've tried unity and gnome-shell.  Both it seems are not idea for dual-screen
[14:17] <escott> ImperialXT, this is a dealer not homebuilt rig
[14:17] <delinquentme> escott, so this is a dual boot system .. in which windows was installed first then ubuntu .. does the relative "smallness" of my sbd1 still stand .. and is it still setup incorrectly ?
[14:17] <delinquentme> *ahem *  :P
[14:17] <kpettit> I like the gnome-shell window key quick launcher thing.  But I like gnome-do better
[14:17] <ImperialXT> I built the pc :P if that's what you're asking
[14:17] <tung_> 没有说中文的？
[14:17] <delinquentme> haha sorry im being goofy
[14:18] <MaRk-I> !cn | tung_
[14:18] <kpettit> izinucs, There are some things i really like about the new unity and gnome-shell.  But for dual-screen it kind of sucks.  I like the older one better.  For single screen I like it though
[14:18] <escott> delinquentme, your sdb1 is 102400 blocks which is 50 megs
[14:18] <escott> delinquentme, so yes thats small
[14:18] <joni> yes, i have done, then ?
[14:18]  * Kaco hates this IRC client :(
[14:18] <palmje> joni: I'd pastebin the lspci output if I were you, unless you wanna be kicked for flooding...
[14:18] <escott> joni, what kind of soundcard is it
[14:18] <delinquentme> escott, so if i want to do this correctly i need to wipe out both windows and ubuntu
[14:19] <delinquentme> and how should that data look on a correctly setup system
[14:19] <escott> ImperialXT, sorry I'm going to drop you for a sec to deal with m0ksha and joni. I figure two birds in hand is better than one in the bush
[14:19] <izinucs> kpettit: that's not encouraging.. I just loaded "Tasque" on the laptop with unity and when you click the close button it actually closes instead of being docked.. you also can't right mouse click it and choose options that are there in gnome 2.x
[14:19] <escott> m0ksha, what was your problem
[14:19]  * ImperialXT gets his parachute out
[14:20] <escott> m0ksha, is nothing working for you?
[14:20] <macca> hi, i am trying to virtualize ubuntu 10.10 in oracle virtualbox and its only picking up my display as 800x600 instead of 1280x768... any reason why (i am in the "try ubuntu" mode using the iso as a virtual drive
[14:20] <kpettit> izinucs, yeah.  Kind of annoying.  I'm trying to give it a chance and have been using gnome-shell for 2 weeks now. I can't use unity on a dual screen it's too hard
[14:20] <joni> latter...i must read slowly
[14:20] <izinucs> kpettit: give kubuntu a try.. slick
[14:20] <m0ksha> escott: my mic isn't working
[14:20] <kpettit> izinucs, I might do that.  It's been awhile sense I've tried KDE.
[14:20] <ImperialXT> macca:  you'd need to install the drivers
[14:21] <ImperialXT> for the graphics
[14:21] <terry> delinquentme: http://pastebin.com/rKSiux0x
[14:21] <m0ksha> escott: i'm trying to install backports modules atm .. ?
[14:21] <escott> joni, use pastebin to send over your lspci
[14:21] <macca> ImperialXT: using the synaptic thing?
[14:21] <kpettit> izinucs, I also loaded xfce which is very simple/minimaliztic.  Nice for when unity/shell get hosed up
[14:21] <escott> m0ksha, thats not uncommon with newer laptops, each laptop has its own configuration
[14:21] <delinquentme> terry, yeah so i think my HD's are mounted / setup incorrectly?
[14:21] <izinucs> kpettit: its really leveled out.. i like dolphin as a fine manager over evince.. more versitale
[14:21] <atlef> macca, virtualbox-guest-additions
[14:22] <ImperialXT> macca:  try system > administration > additional drivers
[14:22] <terry> delinquentme: Yea, ok.  May very well be better off to re-install.
[14:22] <ImperialXT> ohh yeah
[14:22] <ImperialXT> forgot about that
[14:22] <escott> m0ksha, it often gets fixed with time, so you could try to install the newest version of alsa, or you could fiddle with hda_analyzer.py
[14:22] <m0ksha> escott: will backports fix it?  i found a thread that says it worked for a bunch of people.  and if it does, should i get rid of this: options snd-hda-intel model=laptop
[14:22] <m0ksha> options snd-hda-intel position_fix=0 enable=yes ?
[14:22] <ImperialXT> macca:  go with what atlef said
[14:22] <izinucs> kpettit: xfce .. yep.. sometimes it's hard enough switching from kde to gnome with all the differences in lingo, programs etc.
[14:22] <kpettit> izinucs, I havcen't tried that one.  Will it let you mount ssh/samba type files?
[14:22] <macca> atlef: i pressed it and nothing happens
[14:23] <delinquentme> terry, would you be able to modify this and show me by comparison how my HDs should show up when using sudo fdisk -l ? http://pastie.org/1835097
[14:23] <joni> so many items, n i can't understand much, which one is indicate the sound card.
[14:23] <m0ksha> escott: rebooting, brb
[14:23] <mhahe> hello boys and girls. got a problem with my update manager. it keeps hanging. i type in my password to check for updates or to try and update and then it stalls and it wont exit even when force quiting
[14:23] <ImperialXT> escott: just highlight me when you're good to give me a hand
[14:23] <izinucs> kpettit: kde? yes
[14:23] <kpettit> izinucs, I think everybody is trying to hard to make the next evolution in desktop usage.  Makes for some odd designs.  Some are very good, but it sucks when you can make a old desktop like you previously had
[14:23] <escott> ImperialXT, wilco, sorry
[14:23] <terry> delinquentme: http://pastebin.com/rKSiux0x
[14:23] <botcity> joni: sudo aplay -l    is the command you need to find your sound card.
[14:23] <escott> joni, can you use pastebin to send it over
[14:23] <kpettit> izinucs, no I meant dolphin.
[14:24] <kpettit> izinucs, I like nautilus alot becuase I can mount/connect to ssh/ftp/samba/etc
[14:24] <delinquentme> to be honest when i was installing ubuntu off of the CD there were some things i did that i wasnt too sure about concerning the structure of the partitions .. like which was labeled a boot ( its been too long for me to recall correctly )
[14:25] <atlef> macca, http://helpdeskgeek.com/linux-tips/install-virtualbox-guest-additions-in-ubuntu/
[14:25] <escott> delinquentme, you can mount an NTFS in the live CD
[14:25] <joni> how to paste it escott ?
[14:25] <escott> delinquentme, can you mount the sdb1 and tell us what folders are in there
[14:25] <izinucs> kpettit: yes.. dolphin will connect to smb shares, network shares, etc..
[14:25] <delinquentme> escott, im attempting to figure out what specifically is bad with my partition structure that you talked about
[14:25] <kpettit> izinucs, cool thanks.  I'll give it a try
[14:25] <escott> joni, pastebin.com and then send us the url
[14:26] <delinquentme> terry, do you mean to keep pasting the same thing :D?
[14:26] <izinucs> kpettit: you can load it in gnome
[14:26] <escott> delinquentme, I think you selected the wrong partition type for your /boot it should have been ext4 and you picked NTFS
[14:26] <kpettit> izinucs, cool.  giving it a try...
[14:26] <escott> delinquentme, but I want to confirm
[14:26] <terry> delinquentme: You asked me to customize the notes for  your setup.  Right?  So I did.
[14:27] <delinquentme> terry, :D i meant that my hard drive partitioning is incorrect .. and i wanted to know if you knew how it SHOULD look
[14:27] <joni> shoul i type in terminal ?
[14:27] <izinucs> kpettit: a couple of features I really like is drag and drop files it askes if you want to "move" or "copy".. Select a bunch of jpg or other files and hit F2 for rename.. It will automatically number them for you
[14:28] <escott> m0ksha, the snd-intel-hda option=model controls what kind see if yours is on here http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio-Models.txt
[14:28] <Boothk> Hey #ubuntu. I'm looking for a java package I can download so I can install java from flash drives. Anyone got any leads?
[14:28] <Natovr`> Nice spambot checker.
[14:28] <kpettit> izinucs, cool.  I'll try it out.  Just finished loading
[14:28] <m0ksha> escott: i looked in there and the closest one i could find was toshiba	Toshiba laptop support - tried and didn't work
[14:28] <delinquentme> http://pastie.org/1835097 <<< this is what i get with "sudo fdisk -l" ... is this setup ( ie the process i went through during installing and partitioning ) flawed .. in a way that which it requires that i do an entire reinstall to get it setup correctly?
[14:29] <escott> joni, type lspci in a terminal, and then select it/copy it/paste it to your browser at pastebin.com
[14:29] <m0ksha> escott: i just tried installing the backports modules and that didnt work either
[14:29] <codebeaker> which process is it that is responsible for killing processes when system memory is tight? (I don't actually care, more I need to know which Log it will write to)
[14:29] <terry> delinquentme: I didn't see anything about any other drives, only sdb (when looking at http://pastie.org/1835097 ), so I can only assume that you have installed evertying on one partition, sdb5  And so I customized the instructions for your case, where you have installed on sdb5 with no other linux partitions.  It is possible to install that way, I'm just not sure that is exactly what you've done.  I can only see what you posted.
[14:29] <codebeaker> I have a long-running Solr reindexing task which gets killed after about 45 minutes, and ~60% memory use… and it's not monit
[14:29] <escott> m0ksha, ok i would try hda_analyzer.py/wait for it to get fixed upstream in alsa
[14:30] <m0ksha> escott: however, when i used the "laptop" option in alsa-base.conf I get the same sound options as are now available since I installed the backports modules and removed those lines from the conf file

[14:30] <m0ksha> escott: what is hda_analyzer.py?
[14:30] <delinquentme> atlef, :P
[14:31] <joni> escott..please help me
[14:31] <escott> m0ksha, its a program from alsa that you can download, which will allow you to manually control some soundcard options
[14:31] <delinquentme> terry, so yeah i've got that and im gonna run through it ... IF my partitioning isnt crap ( which i think it is?? )
[14:31] <escott> joni, please paste what you tried to send into pastebin.com or paste.ubuntu.com and send us the link it gives you
[14:32] <escott> joni, http://www.pastebin.com
[14:32] <terry> delinquentme: How it SHOULD look is up to you.  A linux install needs only two partitions one for swap and the other for the actual files, (all of them).  That is the simpliest and is really all you need.  i.e. /dev/sda1 swap  and /dev/sdb2  for /
[14:32] <m0ksha> escott: should i just use python run.py?
[14:32] <t4k3sh1> mmm what is #ubuntu-unregged
[14:32] <t4k3sh1> anti spambot?
[14:32] <joni> should i open in new tab ?
[14:32] <escott> m0ksha, yes but as root. it pops up a somewhat confusing gui, so pm me and I'll take you through it off-channel
[14:32] <Natovr`> t4k3sh1, spambot checker
[14:32] <delinquentme> is there anyone in here who knows they have a really good dual boot with ubuntu 10.04 and windows .. so i can see how your disks are setup
[14:32] <Natovr`> t4k3sh1, I think it's a cool idea.
[14:33] <t4k3sh1> Ok Thanks :P
[14:33] <m0ksha> escott: just got that
[14:33] <t4k3sh1> yes it is
[14:33] <terry> delinquentme: typo:  i.e. /dev/sda1 swap  and /dev/sda2    for  /
[14:33] <Natovr`> delinquentme, define "good" :P
[14:33] <t4k3sh1> btw bots arent allowed here right?
[14:33] <escott> delinquentme, mine is pretty much like what you have except that my 1 partition is ext4
[14:33] <delinquentme> terry, so im not messing with the reinstall atm
[14:34] <delinquentme> escott, simple question : is my partition system "effed"
[14:34] <brewster> KM0201: are you there?
[14:34] <terry> delinquentme: Very  good.    Like I said before, re-install may very well be your easiest solution.
[14:34] <Feldegast> delinquentme i have run a dual boot for years
[14:34] <Natovr`> delinquentme, personally I only have my /home dir. in a seperate partition, apart from the root directory. I also have a data partition with work and app properties that I sometimes mount onto Linux, for when I need to transfer something between Win7 and Ubuntu
[14:34] <delinquentme> if yes > im reinstalling if no > ill attempt to fix it
[14:35] <delinquentme> Feldegast, can i get your "sudo fdisk -l" in a paste?
[14:35] <Feldegast> delinquentme pm me sure
[14:35] <joni> should i sign up in pastsebin escott?
[14:35] <terry> delinquentme: Natovr`s idea is best and is what I do.  I like to install with separate /home partition.  There are a couple reasons for that.
[14:35] <Natovr`> joni, you don't sign up - you paste multi-lined command line stuff into pastebin. It can be anonymous.
[14:36] <Natovr`> delinquentme, yeah, easy backups.. and less risky when you upgrade ubuntu. I know some people also have their /usr directory seperate
[14:36] <delinquentme> YEH!
[14:36] <delinquentme> thats what did it! i upgraded!
[14:36] <atlef> joni, no need to join up, just use the submit button
[14:36] <KM0201> brewster, yes, why?
[14:36] <Natovr`> did you lose something?
[14:36] <delinquentme> after that stuff took a pewp.
[14:37] <Natovr`> delinquentme, what do you mean?
[14:37] <delinquentme> Natovr`, do you mean " total system functionality" lol yeah man it put me out for a day and i basically stopped upgrading whenever the option was presented
[14:37] <joni> yes, i have pasted it, then ?
[14:37] <joni> how to send u ?
[14:37] <brewster> i fixed it
[14:37] <terry> delinquentme: Oh, so it was a distribution upgrade gone wrong?
[14:37] <delinquentme> Natovr`, yeah i just assumed that it was safe to upgrade whenever the option presented itself
[14:37] <Natovr`> joni, give us the link after you press "submit"
[14:37] <delinquentme> yeahhh!!
[14:37] <delinquentme> terry ^
[14:37] <delinquentme> lol
[14:37] <delinquentme> so, i like where this is headed
[14:38] <delinquentme> is this difficult?
[14:38] <FloodBot2> delinquentme: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:38] <escott> joni, it should give you a linke
[14:38] <atlef> joni, no need to join up, just use the "submit" button
[14:38] <oneseventeen> I want to set the volume to 150% on startup on my Ubuntu 10.10 desktop, I can easily do this via command line but can't figure out how to get the script to run after pulse audio is loaded.
[14:38] <oneseventeen> any tips?
[14:38] <izinucs> joni: the link will show up in the address bar of the browser
[14:38] <terry> delinquentme: It usually is safe, but you have to make sure your system stays up and connected and it will almost always go through without a hitch. I've got a system here that has gone through several distribution upgrades with no problems.
[14:38] <Natovr`> delinquentme, I see. Well the problem I had last time I upgraded was to do with the graphics card. The new Linux kernal (I think 10.04) wasn't supported by ATI any more, and I had to switch to a legacy driver, and couldn't run games.
[14:39] <Natovr`> I hate ATI
[14:39] <joni> like this one ? http://pastebin.com/2PNHC1mh
[14:39] <Natovr`> joni, yes
[14:39] <joni> so, what is my sound card  escott ?
[14:39] <Natovr`> gtg..
[14:40] <Natovr`> delinquentme, I reckon you should reinstall.
[14:41] <frEEEki> can someone give me some advice concerning software raid 5 ?
[14:41] <Natovr`> but it's good to have a second opinion. Depending on the problem, it could be fixed.
[14:41] <Feldegast> delinquentme my system was upgraded every 6 months from 6.04 to 10.10 without a problem
[14:41] <frEEEki> i created one but lost 1 diks
[14:41] <delinquentme> Natovr`, so talk to me about the /home thing and the nuances of how this works and why its better than the setup ive got
[14:41] <Natovr`> delinquentme, what setup do you have?
[14:41] <Natovr`> I wasn't here earlier.
[14:41] <joni> help me anyone..
[14:41] <delinquentme> ubuntu 10.04 dual booted with windows
[14:42] <delinquentme> ( i think its win 7 ) ?
[14:42] <frEEEki> can someone help me rapairing a broken raid 5?
[14:42] <Feldegast> delinquentme if you have /home as a separate partition you can encrypt it without encrypting the rest of the drive, you can also put it on a different drive
[14:42] <terry> delinquentme: For one thing, if you do a fresh install and you have a separate partition for /home, all your files can be right there where you left them when your done.
[14:43] <orangess> please help?
[14:43] <orangess> http://pastebin.com/BN5DkHjz
[14:43] <escott> joni, you have an intel core i5 with intel hda sound
[14:43] <escott> joni, is your model on this list: http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio-Models.txt
[14:43] <joni> then should i do escott ?
[14:43] <Eiriksvin> Hello, im having a problem installing Ubuntu 10.10 it says there was an unrecoverable errorand the installer needs to restart, when i give it the ok it reboots my computer and then i choose ubuntu and itrepeats the install which in turn repeats the error, can someone help me?
[14:44] <joni> to activate my sound card
[14:44] <terry> delinquentme: .... as long as you tell the installer to leave /home partition as it is and then use it as /home again.
[14:44] <botcity> joni, lspci | grep -i audio     will show you your sound card information from that info on your terminal
[14:44] <Natovr`> delinquentme, and tell it not to format the /home partition
[14:44] <fairuz> Hi, how to upgrade my glibc? let say from 2.11 to 2.13? Thanks
[14:44] <Natovr`> make sure you note down the size of the partition, so you don't forget which one is which and pick the wrong one.
[14:45] <iceroot> fairuz: is it really needed?
[14:45] <jatt> fairuz: just don't do it
[14:45] <iceroot> fairuz: its not a good idea to use another glibc-version
[14:45] <escott> joni, and are you getting nothing for sound?
[14:45] <fairuz> iceroot: jatt: ah ok, and why is that may i know?
[14:45] <fairuz> want to use it for compiling though
[14:45] <iceroot> fairuz: its the most important package on your system (with the kernel and so on)
[14:46] <delinquentme> Natovr`, terry so i thought that this was more to ensure stability of the ubuntu OS when "living" with a windows OS .. not necessarily to be able to keep files .. like this guy is strictly a work comp .. all important data is "out there" hahah (git hub )
[14:46] <iceroot> fairuz: everything is build against that glibc
[14:46] <jatt> fairuz: because the glibc is a fundamental component. nearly all the software that runs on your os depend on it
[14:46] <fairuz> iceroot: ah ok
[14:46] <iceroot> fairuz: so is there a reason you need a newer version?
[14:46] <Natovr`> delinquentme, if you use Windows with Ubuntu, the only advantage of keeping /home seperate, I guess, is that you can sometimes mount it using ext2fs and retrieve files from it.
[14:46] <jatt> fairuz: so if you break the glibc while playing around with it you will f**k your system up. excuse my language :)
[14:47] <joni> yes, i didn't find it in the link
[14:47] <fairuz> jatt: sounds dangerous
[14:47] <jatt> fairuz: it is
[14:48] <frEEEki> can someone help me rapairing a broken raid 5?
[14:48] <fairuz> iceroot: Actually I want to cross compile a tool for another platform, and while configuring the tool for compilation process, I got this http://pastebin.com/9ns1QFNh
[14:48] <delinquentme> Natovr`, ok cool sooo im just going to reinstall ubuntu over top the existing install ... OOC does anyone know if there IS some way to "help" ubuntu stay stable through upgrades while on a dual boot HD ( im sure windows on the HD doesnt HELP it )
[14:48] <fairuz> So I'm not sure whether it's talking about target mchine glibc or my dev machin's glibc

[15:05] <Feldegast> delinquentme it won't be ntfs
[15:05] <delinquentme> ok that helps!
[15:06] <delinquentme> it would be a linux swap right??
[15:06] <gistian> erUSUL,ubottu: thank you
[15:06] <Feldegast> delinquentme not linux swap
[15:06] <delinquentme> no.. a swap is for the hibernating stuff .. maybe?

[15:20] <LAcan> d1gital, then my answer is unsatisfactory: there are known issues between ubuntu and nvidia, your issue is likely one of them. Can't give you a better answer than that :( which card do you have?
[15:21] <d1gital> LAcan, from lspci: I just upgraded from Hardy to Natty (clean install) and I'm pretty convinced that was a mistake. Complaints aside, my major issue is with the NVIDIA graphics driver. I managed to make the GRUB menu visible by tweaking /etc/defaults/grub, but now I am getting screen corruption when I switch back to X from a VT. Window contents are drawn white until I resize the window.
[15:21] <delinquentme_> Ok back @ it!
[15:21] <d1gital> LAcan, uhh.. sorry.
[15:22] <d1gital> LAcan, really from LSPCI00:0d.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C61 [GeForce 6150SE nForce 430] (rev a2)
[15:22] <Pici> LAcan, d1gital: Natty is not yet supported in this channel, Please continue in #ubuntu+1
[15:23] <delinquentme_> terry, u here?
[15:23] <oneseventeen> erUSUL: well, ~/.profile appears to run before all of the desktop/audio management scripts :(
[15:24] <erUSUL> oneseventeen: System>Preferences>init apps
[15:24] <delinquentme_> when i CHROOT into a HD .. and then use sda thats bc when im CHROOTed .. im IN that HD so the commands are issued relative to itself ... and NOT from the computer im CHROOTing from
[15:25] <oneseventeen> if I tell it to run the browser full screen, then it halts everything while it runs the browser and audio is at 150%, but when I close the browser, the rest of startup happens
[15:25] <oneseventeen> erUSUL: I have Startup Apps in that folder, but there is no way (that I can tell) to specify order of execution
[15:26] <erUSUL> oneseventeen: make an script that does « sleep 60 && commandhere » ( it waits 60 seconds ) ?
[15:26] <escott> delinquentme_, no sda is always sda
[15:27] <escott> delinquentme_, chroot is to make sure that the version of grub you are using is the one from that system, and that all the paths to folders look like they will look like when you boot normally
[15:28] <escott> delinquentme_, so the second part of what you said but not the first
[15:28] <macca> atlef: hi its macca from earlier, i have now fully installed ubuntu and am going to the install guest additions, i have mounted the virtual disk and now am trying to run using terminal but the tutorial you gave will not work
[15:29] <LYY_> ?
[15:29] <macca> how do i run a .run file in terminal as an admin
[15:29] <LYY_> 123
[15:29] <LYY_> 321
[15:30] <prakas> escott: do you know any way to bring the vnc server (remote desktop) back in ubuntu? i am unable to connect to the server anymore. i can just ping to the machine running ubuntu
[15:30] <oneseventeen> erUSUL: but startup scripts happen one after the other.  I'd basically be waiting 60 seconds, changing the volume, then the system would change the volume back
[15:30] <erUSUL> macca: what ar you installing?
[15:30] <nimrod10> macca, use sudo  filename
[15:30] <genii-around> macca: if it's a binary: sudo ./filename.run
[15:30] <escott> prakas, can you ssh in
[15:30] <orangess> is sha512sum overkill for checking file integrity? md5 is good enough?
[15:31] <prakas> escott: how? does ubuntu have a ssh server by default?
[15:31] <delinquentme_> escott, i thought chroot is something akin to sshing
[15:31] <atlef> macca, cd /media/cdrom0 then /sudo sh ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run
[15:31] <delinquentme_> this is not the case huh :D
[15:31] <macca> nimrod10: what is the location i should type in for a CD as the tutorial i am follwing does not work
[15:31] <erUSUL> orangess: settle whith sha1 as middleground :) ?
[15:32] <nimrod10> macca, are you running something from a CD ?
[15:32] <macca> atlef: i get cd: /media/cdrom:no such file or directory
[15:33] <macca> nimrod10: cd virtually mounted
[15:33] <atlef> macca, cdrom0
[15:33] <escott> delinquentme_, ssh is for remote connections
[15:34] <macca> atlef: same issue
[15:35] <LAcan> yo were do i go to complain about the chops in ##windows?
[15:35] <erUSUL> LAcan: #freenode ?
[15:35] <atlef> macca, then drag the iso you have on the desktop to the terminal to see where it is mounted
[15:36] <macca> atlef: and follow that with the sudo bit?
[15:36] <nimrod10> macca, where did you mount your iso ? how did you mount it ?
[15:37] <escott> joni, you still around?
[15:37] <macca> atlef: nope same issue
[15:38] <TEst3v1n0> Wow... I'm running ubuntu in the cloud
[15:38] <escott> delinquentme_, what kind of progress have you made
[15:38] <TEst3v1n0> it's great!
[15:38] <atlef> macca, what happened when you drag it to the terminal
[15:39] <macca> atlef: comes up with a really long path  x-nautilus-desktop:///VBOXADDITIONS_4.0.6_71344.volume
[15:40] <MaRk-I> macca: try this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5A485r8KiRg
[15:40] <fumanchu182> For Ubunut/Debian, where can I find the crontab (what user is it under) that runs the cleanup on the php sessions folder?
[15:40] <macca> MaRK-I: fraid i cant get on youtube
[15:40] <atlef> macca, you are doing all this in virtualbox
[15:40] <macca> atlef: yes
[15:41] <MaRk-I> macca: inside the vbox running click install guest additions then after that go to devices and the cd image is already there......
[15:42] <macca> MaRK: i have clicked it and its appeared on the desktop and thats the problem, i cant run the .run as an admin without terminal and terminal reckons the cd doesnt exist
[15:42] <MaRk-I> macca: inside the virtualbox machine go to "Places" you'll see the guest additions CD
[15:42] <macca> MaRK-I: yes i know
[15:43] <macca> MaRK-I: i just cant run what i need
[15:43] <gpled> anyone loose firefox after last update?
[15:43] <MaRk-I> macca:  did you click the "auto run prompt" inside that folder?
[15:44] <macca> MaRK-I: no, but i can do...
[15:44] <ravilevich> exit
[15:44] <MaRk-I> macca click that one and it will popup a warning window, click yes and type your password
[15:45] <macca> MaRK-I: semms to have worked :-)
[15:45] <zhpx> hi all
[15:46] <mr-rich> Anyone else having problems with dbus-daemon chewing up a shitload of CPU cycles?
[15:46] <ball103411> Hello zhpx
[15:46] <MaRk-I> macca: just wait till the terminal finishes it will tell you to "press return" to finish
[15:46] <atlef> macca, good, sorry but the way i did it worked for me
[15:46] <macca> atlef: no problem you led me in the right direction in the first place
[15:47] <macca> atlef: will it activate as soon as i restart and then i will be in full resolution or do i have to go further
[15:47] <vader-90df> hi everyone
[15:48] <soyo> Does anyone know what the right user/group mod settings should be for other_vhosts_access.log [apache2] I can't get apache2 to start because it keeps having trouble finding that file but it is where it is looking..
[15:48] <zego> is there a way I can launch a program without it being attached from a terminal? I'm in a music folder and just want to do "vlc *" and be able to close the terminal after
[15:48] <jatt> (vlc * &)
[15:48] <atlef> macca, it should activate as soon as it is installed, if not reboot the virtual machine
[15:49] <macca> atlef: do i have to go any further with display drivers?
[15:49] <zego> jatt, thanks, just what I was looking for
[15:49] <jatt> zego: there is also the nohup command
[15:49] <oneseventeen> is there a way to set the focus to a window via script rather than clicking?
[15:49] <erUSUL> zego: nohup vlc *
[15:49] <ZykoticK9> zego, did you test that?  I think you need "nohup vlc"
[15:50] <vader-90df> anyone know how I can change an iso so that a live cd has some files that are changed?  I'd like to change /etc/hosts.deny and hosts.allow
[15:50] <jatt> (foo &) also works
[15:50] <erUSUL> zego: or run "disown" after the command « vlc * & » was run
[15:50] <ZykoticK9> jatt, if you close the terminal that will close vlc as well
[15:50] <jatt> it won't
[15:50] <jatt> foo &
[15:50] <jatt> will
[15:50] <vader-90df> can someone confirm that they see what i'm writing - i'm not auth'ed to services
[15:50] <atlef> macca, no, now the drivers should be installed and you should be able to change resolution
[15:50] <escott> vader-90df, mount the *.iso as a loopback device
[15:51] <erUSUL> jatt: just « foo & » is not enough you need nohup or disown
[15:51] <ZykoticK9> jatt, my tests here idnicat otherwise
[15:51] <macca> atlef: ok looks like i need to do a restart then
[15:51] <Embotido> hej guys perhaps you could help me with a bash script or something
[15:51] <zego> jatt, erUSL, ZykoticKN: jatt was right in bash at least
[15:51] <jatt> again
[15:51] <jatt> (foo &)
[15:51] <jatt> andnot
[15:51] <jatt> foo &
[15:51] <vader-90df> escott: i have, but i have /pool etc - I want to change the resulting info under /etc
[15:51] <FloodBot2> jatt: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:51] <jatt> (foo &) is not equal to foo&
[15:51] <jatt> ok?
[15:51] <vader-90df> escott: where do i look to find that?
[15:51] <ZykoticK9> jatt, you're right using the () does make it work.
[15:52] <jatt> see?
[15:52] <escott> vader-90df, if you mounted the iso as a loopback to /pool then just edit /pool/etc
[15:52] <zego> soyo: the log needs to be own or at least have write access to the log file.  the user is usually "www-data"
[15:52] <vader-90df> escott: another thing that i'd like to do is automatic logins
[15:52] <vader-90df> aaah thanks escott
[15:52] <BernardV> Embotido: Just ask the question, this is a bit like...
[15:52] <macca> atlef: nope it wont let me change
[15:53] <zego> soyo:  assuming apache2 is www-data, just do "chown www-data:www-data <file>" and "chmod 644 <file>"
[15:53] <macca> atlef: although i am a step firther in that it says vbx instead of unknown for the monitor
[15:53] <vader-90df> escott: i only see /poool/master and /pool/restricted :(
[15:53] <vader-90df> err /pool/main
[15:54] <escott> vader-90df, not sure i follow. what iso is this?
[15:54] <soyo> zego that could be it, testing
[15:54] <vader-90df> escott: could it be under filesystem.squashfs?
[15:55] <vader-90df> escott: 10.10
[15:55] <Embotido> i need to make a table in open office for a marketing-research  and i have to compair like 500 cordless dect telephone and sort them per price . So I have some results from http://www.idealo.de/preisvergleich/ProductCategory/2984.html?param.resultlist.sortKey=minPrice is there an easy way get this all in openofficecalc table?
[15:55] <vader-90df> escott: desktop edition
[15:55] <macca> atlef: its definitly activated as it appears in the additional drivers
[15:55] <zego> soyo: other guess is that it can't find the file because of the path.  Make sure every directory is executable along its path
[15:55] <escott> vader-90df, probably
[15:56] <vader-90df> Embotido: yes you can - you'll get more help in #openoffice.org  though
[15:56] <escott> vader-90df, in which case you have to then mount the squashfs as a loopback as well
[15:56] <atlef> macca, can you resize the vbox window and does that change the resolution
[15:56] <macca> atlef: nope i have it maximized... no change
[15:56] <escott> vader-90df, never actually looked inside the ubuntu livecd iso myself
[15:57] <BernardV> Embotido: With wget, sed, awk etc you could do this.. but if the markup is xhtml compliant you could use a xml parser to get the data. But I don't think this is the right channel to ask such things.
[15:57] <atlef> macca, you should try in the #vbox channel then, i don't know why it does not work
[15:57] <atlef> macca, sorry
[15:58] <BernardV> Embotido: Forgot curl :)
[15:58] <vader-90df> anyone know howto setup automatic logins (manually)
[15:58] <z443087655> where is here?
[15:59] <Embotido> Thank you vader-90df & BernardV ! It's been a long time since i was last here and didn't know which chanel was the appropriate one
[15:59] <vader-90df> z443087655: #ubuntu -- in the land of Pandora
[15:59] <macca> atlef: ok will post something there
[16:00] <escott> vader-90df, yes one sec ill pm you
[16:00] <JuJuBee> I need help with a 3rd nic in my server (gateway, dhcp, firewall etc..).
[16:00] <JuJuBee> When I configure to use dhcp it gets IP of my internal NIC.  Weird...
[16:01] <centHOGG> /etc/network/interfaces
[16:01] <JuJuBee> centHOGG: tried that...
[16:01] <vader-90df> escott: might not work as i'm not authed
[16:01] <macca> atlef: ok nobodys talking in there at all, looks like im stuck here
[16:01] <centHOGG> JuJuBee: with one nic does it work right? Then build up
[16:02] <JuJuBee> centHOGG: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/599336/
[16:02] <JuJuBee> centHOGG: I currently have 2 nic's working via /etc/network/interfaces
[16:03] <centHOGG> JuJuBee: pm me
[16:03] <escott> vader-90df, did you get the pm?
[16:05] <escott> vader-90df, auto login is controlled by /etc/gdm/custom.conf contents would be [daemon]
[16:05] <escott> TimedLoginEnable=false
[16:05] <escott> AutomaticLoginEnable=true
[16:05] <escott> TimedLogin=[[username]]
[16:05] <escott> AutomaticLogin=[[username]]
[16:05] <FloodBot2> escott: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:05] <escott> TimedLoginDelay=30
[16:05] <macca> anyone else have any ideas about increasing screen resolution past 800x600 when virtualizing in vbox
[16:05] <vader-90df> thanks escott
[16:06] <ZykoticK9> macca, you need to get the Guest Additions properly installed, if assistance isn't available here you might want to try the #vbox channel.  did you run the GA install with sudo?  did you get any errors?
[16:06] <escott> macca, is that not an option in the virtual machine config
[16:06] <tuhin> ! russian
[16:07] <Sidewinder1> Aww, don't tease the 'bot..
[16:07] <Hybrydo> !version
[16:07] <Hybrydo> !users
[16:08] <Hybrydo> oO
[16:08] <escott> JuJuBee, can you post your entire network config
[16:09] <syrinx_> !pastebin
[16:09] <orangess> what is /usr/share for
[16:09] <ZykoticK9> macca, with 10.10 I see the only note I have for pre-requisites is dkms (and that's optional)  what version of Ubuntu are you using as a Guest?  11.04?
[16:09] <macca> atlef: ive done it, switched into another display mode and back and then made all the settings default
[16:09] <Sidewinder1> !botsnack
[16:09] <escott> orangess, for any common files used by programs not required for boot
[16:09] <Embotido> BernardV: on which channel would it be better to ask?
[16:10] <atlef> macca, so now it works?
[16:10] <zego> orangess: you'll find stuff like example config files, docs, and stuff like that
[16:10] <macca> atlef: yup
[16:10] <oneseventeen> are there any cool apps to make a button on the desktop that you press once to launch a script?
[16:10] <oneseventeen> (I don't want it to ask me if I want to run or read the script, I want it to just run it)
[16:10] <tyreza> hello there
[16:10] <orangess> zego, is it the kind of stuffs that you dont want a hacker messing with?
[16:10] <tyreza> what 's LVM ? what it can do ?
[16:10] <orangess> or its not critical?
[16:11] <AxiomShell> hello everyone
[16:11] <bison> any chat client in ubuntu that supports video calling
[16:11] <escott> orangess, its critical to have a usable system but you can technically boot without it
[16:12] <atlef> macca, good for you
[16:12] <ZykoticK9> oneseventeen, you could create a launcher that had "gnome-terminal -e foo_script" should work?  good luck.
[16:12] <AxiomShell> I'm trying to get my feet wet on creating DSSI (LADSPA) plugins. Can anyone give some tips on good resources, sites or even books?
[16:13] <zego> orangess: for the most part you should be ok, it's not as critical as /etc/ or /usr/lib/ or /usr/bin but you probably don't want to give everyone write access.  if you need a more common area for people to put things maybe use /usr/local/share ?
[16:13] <escott> tyreza, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_Volume_Manager_%28Linux%29
[16:13] <oneseventeen> ZykoticK9: thanks! that should have been obvious but it wasn't :P works great
[16:13] <bison> any chat client in ubuntu that supports video calling
[16:13] <ZykoticK9> oneseventeen, glad to help
[16:13] <brian_of_tacoma> I dont know why I cant find this info anywhere else ... how do you select output text (for copying and pasting) in a command line ... I'm in Ubuntu Server with no GUI
[16:13] <orangess> ok thx
[16:14] <zego> brian_of_tacoma: you can't really "select", what are you trying to do
[16:14] <escott> brian_of_tacoma, with no gui there is no concept of a clipboard
[16:15] <tyreza> but i can't difference between lvm and disk partition escott
[16:15] <jatt> man xclipboard
[16:15] <zego> brian_of_tacoma: there is no real copy and paste, but piping can usually get the same thing done.
[16:15] <brian_of_tacoma> I am using dropbox's command line install for servers ... theres a bunch of continually changing output
[16:16] <zego> jatt: xclip requires X, headless = no x
[16:16] <escott> tyreza, disk partitions are fixed. dangerous to change after making them
[16:16] <e-DIO-t> Tyrant: lvm is a logical volume which can "include" multiple phisical partitions.
[16:16] <brian_of_tacoma> you are supposed to go to one of the links
[16:16] <escott> tyreza, lvm abstracts the disk a bit. allows you to make multiple disks look like one, and resize partitions with a bit less worry
[16:17] <oneseventeen> ZykoticK9: also, in nautilus preferences you can choose to run executable text files when they are opened instead of asking every time.
[16:17] <JenniferB2> Hi folks, how can I make the aliases declared in a Aliases.sh file, available from other .sh files ? Currently I only get access to the aliases from the command line.. I have added at the bottom of .bashrc the line . ~/Scripts/Aliases.sh ...
[16:17] <brian_of_tacoma> ssh didnt wok
[16:18] <escott> brian_of_tacoma, you want a text mode browser? apt-get install links. you want to get an http out of rapidly scrolling text? grep. text is scrolling to fast to read? | less
[16:18] <ZykoticK9> oneseventeen, good to know, thanks :)
[16:18] <Waldii> hey, is der a way in ubuntu 11.04 to blacklist a specific hardware so that it is not loaded at booting?
[16:18] <Waldii> there* xD
[16:18] <tyreza> so better is to use LVM rather than disk partion ? escott
[16:18] <ZykoticK9> Waldii, reask in #ubuntu+1
[16:18] <escott> tyreza, if you anticipate using the features sure
[16:19] <zego> brian_of_tacoma: ah, I see the link you're talking about.  it looks like you just need to visit the link from any machine but yeah, chances are you need to just type that url out by hand
[16:19] <compdoc> I hate LVM. I always use primary partitions
[16:19] <brian_of_tacoma> ouch lol
[16:19] <escott> tyreza, it may complicate booting somewhat. your boot partition should probably not be on an lvm, and your initrd would have to have lvm modules
[16:19] <zego> brian_of_tacoma: use links or elinks though, they work fine
[16:19] <ZykoticK9> tyreza, fedora uses LVM by default, ubuntu does not - i've never seen a compelling reason to use LVM myself...
[16:19] <brian_of_tacoma> it changes so fast tho
[16:20] <escott> brian_of_tacoma, | less
[16:20] <brian_of_tacoma> k
[16:20] <escott> brian_of_tacoma, or | grep
[16:20] <brian_of_tacoma> ok will try thatt
[16:20] <brian_of_tacoma> ty
[16:24] <macca> atlef: yep got it all sorted now many thanks for yout extensive help
[16:24] <asktoby> Just moved to Natty. How do I hide a mount from the launcher? Rightclick just gives "Open".
[16:24] <macca> altef: one more thing... how do i change the interface away from gnome
[16:24] <ZykoticK9> asktoby, reask in #ubuntu+1
[16:25] <tyreza> what is a logical volume ?
[16:25] <dajhorn> tyreza:  Fancy partitions that you can resize and snapshot.
[16:25] <Combatjuan> tyreza: It's a "disk" as far as the computer thinks of it.  It may be multiple hard drives together, it might be just a partiction.
[16:25] <usr13> tyreza: a partition
[16:26] <escott> tyreza, if you plan to be adding lots of mixed size disks and dont want to deal with having to create new partitions use lvm
[16:26] <macca> ow do i change the interface away from gnome
[16:26] <escott> tyreza, if this is a laptop and you know ahead of time that you only want to have X space for ubuntu there is no benefit to using lvm
[16:26] <usr13> tyreza: A logical partition is part of an extended partition
[16:27] <escott> macca, have you installed another interface?
[16:27] <zego> macca: what are you trying to switch to?  in general you install another interface and then just switch which window manager when you log in
[16:27] <escott> macca, next time you login change from gnome session at the bottom of the gdm login screen
[16:27] <macca> escott: unity is what  i am after: is this not preinstalled
[16:27] <escott> macca, upgrade to natty see #ubuntu+!
[16:27] <escott> macca, upgrade to natty see #ubuntu+1
[16:27] <macca> escott: i know but its still in beta
[16:27] <buttclincher> hi
[16:28] <buttclincher> hi
[16:28] <buttclincher> hi
[16:28] <escott> macca, then wait
[16:28] <FloodBot2> buttclincher: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:28] <buttclincher> anyone know of any good site to help with overclocking with ubuntu
[16:29] <escott> buttclincher, phoronix?
[16:29] <buttclincher> whats that?
[16:29] <dpy> what is wrong when: padsp sidplay2 Ouwehand_Reyn_-_Last_Ninja_3.sid  produces noise while padsp aoss sidplay2 Ouwehand_Reyn_-_Last_Ninja_3.sid  works (I hear music)
[16:29] <zego> macca: it looks like it's in the repos, just do sudo apt-get install unity, give it a shot
[16:29] <escott> buttclincher, google for it
[16:29] <buttclincher> cool thx
[16:29] <ceo> all... need information...
[16:30] <usr13> buttclincher: Overclocking is done via the bios
[16:30] <escott> macca, zego thats the old unity not for desktops

[16:31] <macca> escott, guess ill just wait then
[16:31] <usr13> ceo: You can create one or choose an existing one.  It is up to you.
[16:31] <ceo> step please usr13
[16:31] <escott> macca, natty is due out in a few days if you really want to try it update-manager -d and pop into #ubuntu+1
[16:32] <zego> ceo: when you're in the menu editor, just click new menu, then the icon button (looks like a folder) and browse for the image you want.  You can make your own icons in something like gimp or inkscape
[16:32] <behzat> hi
[16:32] <ceo> usr13,  need step how to creat some menu on application menu and have some logo / icon
[16:32] <behzat> zego
[16:32] <escott> ceo, sudo apt-get install alacarte
[16:32] <zego> behzat?
[16:33] <ZykoticK9> escoload_, alacarte should be installed by default
[16:33] <usr13> ceo: right-click and choose Edit Menus
[16:33] <ZykoticK9> escott, ^^
[16:33] <ceo> zego, escott not like that, am need cheng icon / logo office menu with personal logo how ?
[16:34] <ceo> am have do it, but not have logo or icon it... need configuration ?
[16:34] <velcroshooz> can disk utility resize ext4 (i want to expand it) without damage?
[16:34] <escott> ceo, pretty sure alacarte can do that too
[16:34] <zego> ceo: do you already have the icon you want to use?
[16:35] <usr13> velcroshooz: yes
[16:35] <ceo> yes, zego am have make personal icon for that..
[16:36] <escott> velcroshooz, yes just make sure partition is unmounted, and as always backup anything important (just incase the power goes out)
[16:36] <behzat> zego iM JONN BROTHER
[16:36] <velcroshooz> escott, sounds good. im going to do it from the livecd.
[16:36] <usr13> ceo: First you probably want to put it in a logical place, like /usr/share/icons/
[16:36] <zego> ceo: right click on applications, select edit menu, click the root menu (Applications).  You should see Office in items.  Select it, the click properties, click the button with the icon, then browse and pick your own picture
[16:37] <ceo> oke zego am will try it first, am will back if that can solve or not oke..
[16:41] <centHOGG> xbmc eject USB device?
[16:42] <tbruff13> does any one know of any good frontends for ffmpeg
[16:42] <markw> so I hit some sort of key combination in gnome-gnometerminal that shrunk my font size.   Wondering what it was, googling keyboard shortcuts gives me nothing.
[16:43] <escott> markw probably a ctrl + or ctrl - right click and modify the profile
[16:43] <strav> can anyone explain me where should I find the french canadian keyboard layout in keyboard input methods (I wish to switch using the gnome applet...) ... I cannot seem to find any french related keyboard input methods in the repositories as well.
[16:43] <syrinx_> markw: ctrl-+ and ctrl--
[16:43] <markw> escott: ah, ok, that's it.
[16:45] <dajhorn> tbruff13: www.handbrake.fr   -- you can get daily builds at LaunchPad.
[16:45] <usr13> markw: Ctrl +
[16:45] <centHOGG> tbruff13: do you use xbmc?
[16:45] <joni> escott, i still in a problem with my sound card
[16:46] <escott> joni, not getting any sound at all
[16:46] <joni> yes...
[16:46] <joni> but never give up
[16:47] <tbruff13> centHOGG, i dont know what that is
[16:47] <MaRk-I> strav: system > preferences > keyboard > layouts tab
[16:47] <escott> joni, open a terminal and type alsamixer lets make sure everything is unmutted and turned up
[16:47] <centHOGG> !xbmc
[16:47] <centHOGG> it's a media manager
[16:47] <d1gital> How can I get my VTs up to my monitor's full resolution?
[16:47] <escott> joni, hit F1 for help but its basically TAB to switch from output to input page and left right arrow to move and up down arrow to change stuff
[16:49] <joni> now i am trying some one advice, he said that i should type : sudo apt-get update
[16:49] <tbruff13> how do i get handbrake
[16:49] <centHOGG> ppa
[16:49] <joni> after finished i should type : sudo apt-get install alsa-firmware-loaders alsa-source alsaplayer alsa-firmware-loaders alsa-base alsa ubuntu-restricted-extras
[16:49] <markw> joni: that will update your local package cache.
[16:50] <centHOGG> also depends on your ubuntu lateness
[16:50] <yoaime> hello
[16:50] <joni> i hope it will work
[16:50] <markw> joni: read up on apt.
[16:50] <markw> http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/
[16:50]  * markw is a debianista
[16:51] <escott> joni, when did you install your system and what disk did you use
[16:52] <tbruff13> hey I can't download handbrake the ppa does not work
[16:52] <zmills> hi, i'm running into a very weird issue
[16:52] <escott> joni, you will find update-manager and synaptic easier to use than apt
[16:52] <zego> tbruff13: did you run apt-get upddate after you added the ppa?
[16:52] <joni> i installed at 3.00 pm today, i use sabily
[16:52] <zmills> i installed ubuntu 10.04 on vmware and every time i log out of the console, it terminates the connection to my other users
[16:53] <tbruff13> zego, yes
[16:53] <zmills> it's like ssh is shut or the nic is shut down when that user logs out
[16:53] <zmills> has anyone seen that before?
[16:54] <zmills> i disabled all of the power management options that i could think of
[16:54] <zmills> my home drive isn't encrypted (though the symptoms would likely be different if that were the problem)
[16:54] <joni> as i said before, i am very new user of ubuntu.
[16:54] <escott> joni, sabily is a variant of ubuntu that nobody on this forum is using. if you just need the arabic localization you should try installing from www.ubuntu.com
[16:54] <zmills> but still
[16:54] <markw> zmills: sounds like a vmware issue.
[16:54] <joni> so i don't know nothing
[16:54] <newubuntu> hey guys
[16:54] <newubuntu> any way of running windows applications on ubuntu???
[16:55] <zego> zmills, you log in via ssh, logging off logs out everyone?
[16:55] <sec_goat> I would like to get a remote GUI to my ubuntu serve, I have installed ubuntu-desktop, I have tried both vnc4server and x2go and I can't seem to connect via either. Ports are forwarded correctly. Does any one have any experience with an option for remote gui?
[16:55] <markw> newubuntu: wine
[16:55] <newubuntu> ive heard of it
[16:55] <newubuntu> is it good?
[16:55] <tbruff13> ok is there a handbrake deb I can download
[16:55] <newubuntu> are all apps supported?
[16:55] <ivancp> two days more... ubuntu 11.04 is comming... I cant wait
[16:55] <roasted_> I have DHCP server installed, however when I run service --status-all dhcp3 doesn't even show up in the list. How can I get DHCP running?
[16:55] <markw> newubuntu: I guess, I don't use it.  found most native apps suit my needs.
[16:55] <Pici> !appdb | newubuntu
[16:55] <markw> newubuntu: what are you trying to do?
[16:55] <escott> sec_goat, you were working on this yesterday right
[16:55] <zmills> zego, i log in via the console in vmware, and logging out of that kills the other users
[16:55] <newubuntu> will dx ball 2 work on it?
[16:55] <markw> is that a game?
[16:56] <newubuntu> yup
[16:56] <Pici> newubuntu: You need to check the appdb, see ubottu's message.
[16:56] <mehdi> hey guys my connection has been removed from the panel how can i bring it back?
[16:56] <joni> actually i had downloaded from www.ubuntu.com, it is ubuntu 10.10
[16:56] <sec_goat> escott: Actually I was workign on raid mostly yesterday, that I have all worked out now thanks to ikonia and psusi
[16:56] <tbruff13> ok when ever I try to sudo aptitude install handbrake I get No candidate version found for handbrake
[16:56] <markw> newubuntu: try some of the breakout games in linux.
[16:57] <KM0201> tbruff13, if i recall, its not in the default repos, you have to add a PPA for it.
[16:57] <joni> escott, is that my problem ? i use sabily  ?
[16:57] <Cleaver> Hey guys, I was wondering if there was someone that had some time to help me out get my microphone working on Ubuntu? It just doesn't seem to register any sound, I'm suspecting that its because I use a PCI sound card and not on board, however I'm no expert.
[16:57] <newubuntu> markw: breakout games?
[16:57] <newubuntu> markw: what are those?
[16:57] <markw> dx ball 2 is a breakout style game.
[16:57] <newubuntu> ohke
[16:57] <TopRamen> I give up
[16:57] <newubuntu> can u recommend one?
[16:57] <KM0201> Cleaver, have you tried changing the device in sound preferencs?
[16:58] <zego> zmills: no idea, most likely a vmware issue.  Maybe sshd is being turned on/off by the user instead of on boot?
[16:58] <markw> newubuntu: system>administration>synaptic
[16:58] <KM0201> !info gnomebreakotu | newubuntu
[16:58] <dr3mro> i am developing app for ubuntui want to create gnome menu item but i fail to set icon for if i use ~ or $home as the icon in home dir ?? how to set icon using ~ or $home in desktop files
[16:58] <tbruff13> KM0201, I know i did but it did not work I added it with synaptic so maybe ill try adding it with terminal
[16:58] <zego> newubuntu: I like lbreakout2
[16:58] <KM0201> oops
[16:58] <KM0201> !info gnomebreakout | newubuntu
[16:58] <markw> newubuntu: circuslinux was cool.
[16:58] <KM0201> ah, bull,
[16:58] <Cleaver> KM0201: Both output and input are pointed to my SB X-Fi sound card, and not the Internal audio as it first was
[16:58] <KM0201> hmm
[16:58] <Cleaver> However it seems I'm still not getting anything recorded
[16:59] <zego> dr3mro, just use the real path.  /home/user
[16:59] <markw> newubuntu: synaptic is the "package" manager and lets you install software.  just search for breakout in it and try some of the games.
[16:59] <TopRamen> error after error.... I don't understand why I can't install ubuntu
[16:59] <escott> joni, the problem is we don't know anything about sabily for all I know your menu items are completely different or they based off of an old version. if you want help on #ubuntu you need to install from www.ubuntu.com. if you want to use sabily see if they have a support forum.
[16:59] <KM0201> !info gnome-breakout | newubuntu knew it was there
[16:59] <escott> sec_goat, did you rule out tunneling X through ssh?
[16:59] <KM0201> Cleaver, hm, not really sure on that one.
[16:59] <newubuntu> k thnks guys
[16:59] <daniel_> yeah that would be best
[17:00] <sec_goat> escott: No I did not, I can SSH in no probs, i just want somethign that works as some tasks are still simpler for me through gui
[17:00] <dr3mro> zego, it wont work for other users i may give this app for them
[17:00] <newubuntu> downloading ur recomendations now from the ubuntu software center
[17:00] <sec_goat> escott: I will take a look at trying that
[17:00] <escott> sec_goat, ssh -X
[17:00] <escott> sec_goat, and then in your ssh shell just type the name of your gui program like gufw should pop up on the local screen
[17:00] <TopRamen> I need some help please before I go insane
[17:00] <roasted_> I have DHCP server installed, however when I run service --status-all dhcp3 doesn't even show up in the list. How can I get DHCP running?
[17:00] <tbruff13> ok the repository is not working is there anywhere I can download the handbrake deb or convert an rpm
[17:00] <Cleaver> KM0201: Me neither, its kinda wierd, and yes. The mic is turned on, and plugged in the right spot :D
[17:01] <zego> dr3mro, wait, where are you setting this icon, in the ubuntu menu items?  are you planning on packaging it up as a deb?
[17:01] <sec_goat> escot
[17:01] <sec_goat> escott: from windows how do i SSH -X?
[17:01] <KM0201> Cleaver, well usually when iv'e had problems w/ a mic.. adjusting the device inputs fixed it...
[17:01] <escott> sec_goat, coming from windows you would have to install an X server on windows like xming
[17:01] <d1gital> sec_goat, you will need Putty and an X server (they exist for windows)
[17:02] <joni> oh..i see, thanks
[17:02] <markw> newubuntu: I found long ago that there's usually a linux native app that will do what you want.
[17:02] <Cleaver> KM0201: Could it be something about the profile I'm using in hardware?
[17:02] <boba_> anyone has an idea of a good glsl debugger for ubuntu
[17:02] <zego> sec_goat:  cygwin has an xserver, there is also xwin32 but I'm not sure that's free
[17:02] <OfficiallyPC> I've applied a quite a few mods on the system to change its look, and is there a way to restore it back to the default, without reinstalling the OS?
[17:03] <newubuntu> markw: native app? whats it called?
[17:03] <sec_goat> escott d1gital: I have putty and xming I will see if i can get this to work
[17:03] <tbruff13> ok i had to go into the repository using chrome and get the deb
[17:03] <escott> sec_goat, tunneling X does not support sessions so if you need to connect from multiple machines and keep the window open you should use vnc, otherwise X is probably easier
[17:04] <orangess> what is mtime please?
[17:04] <escott> orangess, modification time
[17:04] <zego> dr3mro: if you are packaging it for release in a deb, then you're going to want to install it in /usr/local/games or /usr/games or somewhere, in which case you just use an absolute path to that.  I'd say develop it completely first then worry about distributing
[17:04] <sec_goat> escott: I don't mind not having the same session, how can i tell what my xserver is? or what i type to start it?
[17:05] <orangess> ty
[17:05] <TopRamen> can I get someone to send me a query to assist me in getting ubuntu installed on my laptop. this day three and still no luck
[17:05] <orangess> how can modication time be 'in the future'?
[17:05] <escott> sec_goat, X seems backwards at first. the server runs on the client and "serves" screen real estate and drawing primitives to the "client" which in your case is the server
[17:05] <dr3mro> zego,  no i want to set the png file in home
[17:05] <rony> help
[17:05] <rony> my internet connection is too slow and weird
[17:05] <Promille> TopRamen: what exactly is the problem? try to first state your exact problem here
[17:05] <escott> sec_goat, so start your X server on windows, and then use putty to ssh with X tunneling enabled to the ubuntu server, the drawing primitives will be send back
[17:06] <Promille> !questions TopRamen
[17:06] <escott> orangess, it shouldn't be which is why apps complain. your clock was probably adjusted backwards
[17:06] <rony> !question
[17:06] <rony> help
[17:06] <rony> i can not use qbittorrent
[17:07] <escott> !question | rony
[17:07] <top_ramen> ok lets see if i can find a histroy of all of the problems i am having
[17:07] <rony> if i use qbittorent i can't surfing or retrieving email
[17:07] <rony> and my connection is too slow
[17:08] <rony> noone here????
[17:08] <escott> rony, try and throttle qbittorrent its probably using all your bandwith. especially throttle the uplink as you are most likely not symmetric, or stop using bittorrent
[17:08] <newubuntu> hey do u guys use the synaptic or the software center more?
[17:08] <joni> escott, when i typed alsamixer, there is a notice : no such file or directory. what does it mean ?
[17:08] <rony> thanks escott : but can you tranlate it in beginner language??
[17:09] <escott> joni, you would have to install it. i think it is part of alsatools
[17:09] <top_ramen> Promille, I have tried live UBS (but my bios wont boot from usb), I have tried running virtual CD (error with broken packages and/or files), Tried Wubi (errored with connect term and "could not retrieve the req installation files)
[17:09] <Promille> rony: I'm not familiar with qbittorent, but see if you can find "connection" tab in "preferences" or "options" and see if you can limit maximum connections to something more suitable. what is your network line( i.e. 5/5 = 5mbit down and 5mbit up)
[17:09] <escott> rony, stop using bittorrent. your connection is too slow.
[17:09] <top_ramen> Promille, for three days it has been error after error
[17:09] <joni> how do install it ?
[17:10] <rony> escott : in winbox it was fast
[17:10] <rony> just in ubuntu it slowing down :(
[17:10] <rony> i think my mtu is too high
[17:10] <rony> i'm using cdma broadband connection
[17:11] <boba_> anyone has an idea of a good glsl debugger for ubuntu

[17:11] <top_ramen> rony, theres your problem CDMA connections suck, also check if you havent reached your cap of data usage as they WILL throttle your speeds greatly
[17:12] <Promille> top_ramen: Live USB -> Go into your bios and set the priority it should boot from. You can enter BIOS from repeatably pressing a certain key, which is specific for your BIOS. Try F8 or F10. There set USB for primary boot order and try again. LiveCD _> Try to run the check at the start when the CD boots( if it does) to see if everything is as its supposed to be. Otherwise you can try do download the DVD/CD-image again and burn it out at slowest spee

[17:12] <rony> but it works fine in windows
[17:13] <Promille> top_ramen: Why not? Is it not in the bootorder when you try to choose it?
[17:13] <usr13> AbTuX: What did you do?
[17:13] <top_ramen> Promille, nope
[17:13] <usr13> AbTuX: What caused Xserver to crash?
[17:13] <Promille> top_ramen: Have you updated your bios to the latest? what bios are you running?
[17:13] <AbTuX> usr13, I just reinstalled xserver-xorg using apt-get
[17:13] <top_ramen> promille, idk this is a kinda old tablet.
[17:14] <tbruff13> Any other frontends for ffmpeg or any other ways to convert audio and video that might include a frontend handbrake is very confusing
[17:14] <StupidWeasel> Howdy folks. I've currently set up my mothers machine back at my parents house to allow me to connect via ssh using a key. I'd also like to tunnel a rdp ports, ideally again using the key, does anyone know a good tutorial on this?
[17:14] <markw> newubuntu: native app is software that was written for linux.    running a windows program under wine adds a layer.
[17:14] <usr13> AbTuX: hummmmm..... interesting.  So what do you get when it finishes booting up?
[17:14] <bafilius> is there a way to reset nautilus? at some point it got stuck trying to open an archive and now whenever I try to start nautilus it tells me it can't open the archive. rebooting has not helped.
[17:14] <Promille> top_ramen: Probably why its not recognizing your usb. What OS are you using now?
[17:14] <AbTuX> usr13, nothing just a blank screen
[17:15] <MaRk-I> tbruff13: arista or winff
[17:15] <usr13> AbTuX: Nothing at all?
[17:15] <joni> Package alsa-tools is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[17:15] <joni> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[17:15] <joni> is only available from another source
[17:15] <tbruff13> ok ill try arista Ive tried winff
[17:15] <Promille> top_ramen: I would recommend you burn your LIveCD image again at lowest speed possible and try to run it live(without installing) so see if it actually can run)
[17:15] <AbTuX> usr13, yes nothing.
[17:15] <joni> can you say something ?
[17:15] <usr13> AbTuX: What happens when you do Ctrl-Alt-F6 ?
[17:15] <bafilius> something
[17:15] <tbruff13> where can i find arista

[17:19] <Promille> top_ramen: Ok shouldnt be a problem. As I said, if i were you I would run the LiveCD, check if it something wrong with it when its boots at welcome screen(theres an option) and try to install it if not. But i recommend you to burn it out with another DVD/CD burner as there may be something wrong with the burner. Remember, slowest speed possible. Use a good burning program.

[17:19] <phonex01> what the hell is this error !!!!
[17:19] <Promille> top_ramen: and come back hen you have tried that :)
[17:19] <escott> sec_goat, sorry was washing dishes
[17:19] <phonex01> i can not use my wireless !
[17:20] <joni> so ? what is your advice ?
[17:20]  * bafilius hugs FloodBot2
[17:20] <Dusting> AbTuX: It plays it when it's on local but not when I try to play the same hosted video.
[17:20] <top_ramen> Promille, this tablet doesnt have a cd drive
[17:20] <sec_goat> escott: not a problem man, I appreciate the help
[17:20] <AbTuX> usr13, I just found that there is a xorg.conf.bak , just renamed it and it worked
[17:20] <AbTuX> usr13, thanks
[17:20] <usr13> AbTuX: Does the output of  ps aux |grep gdm   only show one line?
[17:21] <usr13> AbTuX: Ok. very well.
[17:21] <KM0201> Cleaver, thats kinda strange... i'mnot that familiar w/ your sound card, but i remember back in the day, it caused numerous issues w/ Linux (we're talking ubuntu 7.04, .10, etc.. not heard of any problems w/ it recently)
[17:21] <Promille> top_ramen: ok. download deamon tools, make a virtual drive and try to run the ubuntu-image
[17:21] <scorch_> ok, check this out:  some one from denmark tried to connect to my desktop yesterday and take control of my desktop.  whats up with that?
[17:21] <Promille> scorch_: how'd know?
[17:21] <KM0201> phonex01, why dn't you start by telling us what your wireless device is.;
[17:21] <top_ramen> Promille, tried that it didnt work... hold on i will get the error for you in one sec
[17:22] <Cleaver> KM0201: Imma try the onboard sound card and use the other one only for output, would that cause problems?
[17:22] <scorch_> Promille:  a text box popped up assking if I wanted to give permission
[17:22] <Promille> top_ramen: ok. use pastie.org if long :)
[17:22] <bafilius> is there a way to reset nautilus? at some point it got stuck trying to open an archive and now whenever I try to start nautilus it tells me it can't open the archive. rebooting has not helped.
[17:22] <Promille> scorch_: screenshot?
[17:22] <top_ramen> ok
[17:22] <KM0201> Cleaver, i was just about to suggest that.. but make sure in your sound profile, you set the input for the onboard mic.
[17:22] <escott> sec_goat, so you are ssh into the server from windows?
[17:22] <scorch_> Promille:  shit, I did not take a screenshot.....   is there a file that stores ip address that try to connect?
[17:22] <Promille> scorch_: which program gave you the message?
[17:23] <scorch_> Promille:  shit, I did not take a screenshot.....   is there a file that stores ip address that try to connect?
[17:23] <IdleOne> scorch_: please mind your language
[17:23] <scorch_> Promille: ubuntu networking or something
[17:23] <sec_goat> escott correct, currently using putty to SSH in. I had used x2go yesterday for a gui, but the reinstall this morning and it won't start x server any more, thus i am looking for a noher solution
[17:23] <scorch_> IdleOne, sorry I am pretty pissed
[17:23] <KM0201> lol
[17:23] <escott> sec_goat, can you ls -l .Xauthority in /home/josh
[17:23] <Cleaver> KM0201: That does seem to work, but you that it'll cause any chrashes?
[17:23] <IdleOne> scorch_: understandably but bad language doesn't help it.
[17:23] <scorch_> Promille:  I quicky hit deny
[17:24] <scorch_> IdleOne, I know, sorry
[17:24] <KM0201> Cleaver, i don't see why it would.
[17:24] <Promille> scorch_: probably something, but im not certain. if your afraid someone has root access or worse, you can allways install snort. It could be so much. Update all programs with update-manager, and stay out of bogus sites.
[17:24] <roasted_> I have DHCP server installed, however when I run service --status-all dhcp3 doesn't even show up in the list. How can I get DHCP running?
[17:24] <Promille> !snort | scorch_
[17:24] <KM0201> Cleaver, unless there's some specific reason you must have the input that is on the card
[17:24] <sec_goat> escott -rw------- 1 root root 0 2011-04-26 11:16 /home/josh/.Xauthority
[17:24] <IdleOne> !info snort  Promille scorch_
[17:24] <escott> sec_goat, thats the problem. you need to chown that back to josh
[17:24] <IdleOne> !info snort  | Promille scorch_
[17:25] <escott> sec_goat, chown josh:josh ~/.Xauthority
[17:25] <Promille> thanks IdleOne
[17:25] <Cleaver> KM0201: No, no special reason :) It'd just be nice to use the better sound card. But I guess I'll have to settle for now until I find a solution
[17:25] <scorch_> ?
[17:25] <IdleOne> Promille: welcome
[17:25] <th0r> scorch_: such access attempts are probably occuring daily but you just don't notice them. I used to run a home server and the logs would show several attempts a day trying random user/pass combinations
[17:25] <scorch_> Promille; ??
[17:25] <roasted_> th0r, which logs show that?
[17:25] <escott> sec_goat, when you login with putty it will put the information about your windows X server into that .Xauthority file so that when you start an X application it should pop up on the windows machine
[17:25] <th0r> roasted_: /var/log/messages
[17:25] <scorch_> yeah which logs?
[17:26] <scorch_> IdleOne:  what do I do with that?  install snort from the universe?
[17:26] <th0r> roasted_: and scorch_ /var/log/messages should record all login attempts
[17:26] <Promille> scorch_: I would recommend you install snort, and with that program you can have alot more control over what happens when your connected to the internet, i.e. who tries to connect. it also keeps log, and its really neat. http://www.snort.org/
[17:26] <scorch_> ok
[17:26] <scorch_> thanks
[17:26] <top_ramen> Promille, when i run the iso vie daemon tools I get a menu that wants my to reboot with the cd in the tray, but obvisously i cant do that
[17:27] <Promille> scorch_: But its a little hard to say what it was now. Probably harmless, but its a good idea to be in control.
[17:27] <nivardus> are indexes turned off by default in user directories with apache? (userdir module)
[17:27] <sec_goat> escott: Well then! that seems to work., thank you! can you direct me to how to launch a desktop?
[17:27] <roasted_> I have DHCP server installed, however when I run service --status-all dhcp3 doesn't even show up in the list. How can I get DHCP running?
[17:27] <escott> sec_goat, and avoid doing sudo gedit and the like
[17:28] <sec_goat> escott how do i wrtie changes without sudo ?
[17:28] <jamel> salut
[17:28] <mythmount> I'm having an issue w/nfs... I put it on like the post https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo  I have hosts.allow to allow my subnet (allow 192.168.0.0/24) I can start/restart NFS w/out issue, but when i do showmount -a i get nothing...dmesg | tail I get a few messages
[17:28] <usr13> roasted_: You don't already have a dhcp server running on your network?
[17:29] <BananaLemon> Hello, is there a command that will automatically install all debian packages in a certain directory? Example, I have 100 .deb packages in a folder, how will I install them with just one command?
[17:29] <roasted_> usr13, I do my imaging on a secluded network, a local LAN.
[17:29] <top_ramen> Promille, when i run the iso vie daemon tools I get a menu that wants my to reboot with the cd in the tray, but obvisously i cant do that
[17:29] <roasted_> usr13, so I run DHCP from my laptop and my laptop acts as the imaging server on a gigabit LAN.
[17:29] <scorch_> Promille: ok i am installing, and it is asking the ip range of my local network.   I am connected dirrectly to the isp, no router, so what do i put there?
[17:29] <roasted_> usr13, Im just not sure why its fouling out
[17:30] <d1gital> Can I bind a macro to a key?  For example,  "ls<return>" is entered when I press F6?
[17:30] <BananaLemon> Hello, is there a command that will automatically install all debian packages in a certain directory? Example, I have 100 .deb packages in a folder, how will I install them with just one command?
[17:30] <Promille> top_ramen: I see. Then your only chance of installing would be USB. Check (with google) if your usb can be updated to accept USB. How old are we talking here?
[17:30] <roasted_> sudo dpkg -i *.deb
[17:30] <scorch_> Promille: ok i am installing, and it is asking the ip range of my local network.   I am connected dirrectly to the isp, no router, so what do i put there?
[17:30] <Promille> top_ramen: and do you have any idea what the motherboard is called
[17:31] <usr13> roasted_: Do you have /etc/dhcpd.conf configured properly?
[17:31] <BananaLemon> roasted_: thank you very much^^
[17:31] <top_ramen> Promille, let me google that
[17:31] <Promille> scorch_: hm. probably 127.0.0.1 or the standard gateway(check with ifconfig) but theres alot of good guides on the internet, check with google or theire site
[17:31] <roasted_> usr13, no, it's empty. the installer of this imaging program should do that for me. Maybe I should try running it again...
[17:32] <ceo> am have folder /var/www/site. and am need make all file with prmision 644 and all folder to 755 how do i can do ?
[17:32] <macca> atlef, you still here?
[17:32] <usr13> roasted_: And have dhcpd listening on the proper interface, (eth0 or eth1 or what ever...)
[17:32] <Promille> scorch_: i.e. http://www.snort.org/assets/113/Snort_2.8.4.1_Ubuntu.pdf
[17:33] <roasted_> usr13, I think I found my issue.
[17:33] <roasted_> usr13, I forgot I have to install it to the opt directory. I was still in /home/me/downloads. Wow I suck.
[17:33] <multipass_> hi, im running ubuntu, and wondering which package to get to try KDE?? should i get kubuntu-desktop or kde-desktop? does it matter?
[17:33] <scorch_> Promille: thanks
[17:33] <usr13> roasted_: You have to edit dhcpd.conf in order to designate dhcp IP ranges, lease time, routers, and nameservers
[17:34] <scorch_> thor: there no line in my messages file about someone trying to conect
[17:34] <roasted_> usr13, this program does it automatically. It was just failing to bring up the dhcp service and the entire install was fouling out.
[17:34] <macca> hi guys, ubuntu is only letting me have screen resolutions in 4:3 ratio when my actual screen is 1280x800 i can only have 1280x960 or 1024x768 how do i get my screen back to the ratio it was in previously
[17:34] <mehdi> does anyone use unity for desktop?
[17:34] <roasted_> usr13, I think the fact it was in the wrong directory may have been aiding in it failing
[17:34] <escott> mehdi, #ubuntu+1 for natty related unity questions
[17:34] <Promille> scorch_: np
[17:35] <usr13> roasted_: How can a program do it for you?  You have to decide where your dhcp range is going to be and what nameservers to use and all that...
[17:35] <macca> hi guys, ubuntu is only letting me have screen resolutions in 4:3 ratio when my actual screen is 1280x800 i can only have 1280x960 or 1024x768 how do i get my screen back to the ratio it was in previously which i think is something like 16:9
[17:36] <top_ramen> How do i get rid of the flood of log ins and diconnects
[17:36] <ezl> how can i create a file for cron -- then copy it to the right place so that it will be executed on my other computers
[17:36] <ezl> idea is to keep my cron stuff in version control across my machines
[17:37] <brightspark> top_ramen: what irc client?
[17:37] <Promille> top_ramen: hows it going?
[17:37] <top_ramen> icechat
[17:37] <top_ramen> still look promille
[17:37] <Promille> allright
[17:38] <brightspark> top_ramen: idk, let me look around
[17:38] <Promille> top_ramen: well, good luck. have a paper to write for school, so I have to AFK for a bit. Sorry I couldn't help you more.. and good luck
[17:38] <top_ramen> Is there a better IRC client i should use for windows?
[17:38] <LAcan_> xchat
[17:38] <Promille> top_ramen: mIRC
[17:38] <mick_laptop> anyone know how to use unionfs?
[17:39] <bafilius> is there a way to reset nautilus? at some point it got stuck trying to open an archive and now whenever I try to start nautilus it tells me it can't open the archive. rebooting has not helped.
[17:39] <mick_laptop> i have my mounted iso w/ my squashfs fs - and i'd like to make ome changes there (but squashfs is ro). i'm reading the squashfs-howto and i'm lost
[17:41] <escott> mick_laptop, unsquashfs and then resquash
[17:41] <escott> mick_laptop, unionfs seems like it would only compound your misery
[17:41] <brightspark> top_ramen: KVirc is great
[17:41] <mick_laptop> escott: ah thanks
[17:41] <mick_laptop> yeah
[17:42] <escott> mick_laptop, after you make your changes just mksquashfs and put the file back
[17:42] <phdaemon> Ok guys
[17:42] <phdaemon> really weird bug
[17:42] <phdaemon> when i am resizing any windows
[17:42] <oCean> phdaemon: can you put that in one single line?
[17:42] <phdaemon> in my ubuntu install, after a certain height, they just go blank, but the window border is still there
[17:42] <poptran> hi
[17:42] <phdaemon> height and width*
[17:43] <escott> phdaemon, all applications?
[17:43] <phdaemon> yes
[17:43] <phdaemon> it was not like that before
[17:43] <phdaemon> i just added a few ppa's and updated
[17:43] <phdaemon> however, i have another desktop at home
[17:44] <phdaemon> with the same ppas, and the same updates, and it does not have that problem
[17:44] <escott> phdaemon, is this a compiz problem can you disable compiz and see if this happens
[17:44] <phdaemon> compiz is not enabled
[17:44] <brightspark> top_ramen: options/settings
[17:44] <phdaemon> wait
[17:44] <phdaemon> yes, compiz problem
[17:44] <brightspark> top_ramen: then irc events
[17:45] <bafilius> is there a way to reset nautilus? at some point it got stuck trying to open an archive and now whenever I try to start nautilus it tells me it can't open the archive. rebooting has not helped.
[17:45] <phdaemon> disabled, now works, i guess the update broke something in compiz, ill just reinstall it
[17:45] <phdaemon> lol should have looked there first
[17:45] <phdaemon> thanks
[17:45] <brightspark> top_ramen: and uncheck what you don't want
[17:46] <zaksoldier> hi
[17:46] <zaksoldier> did any one have iphone
[17:47] <phonex01> when i see uname in shell file does this mean i have to replace it with my user name or just keep it ?
[17:47] <phonex01> KLIB=/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build | do i have to replace the uname by my user name ??
[17:47] <compdoc> uname is a command
[17:47] <escott> phdaemon, also check the graphics driver sounds like you are hitting a texture size limit
[17:47] <phonex01> ohhh
[17:48] <compdoc> it returns the running version
[17:48] <phonex01> thank you comp
[17:48] <compdoc> try it: uname -r
[17:48] <jkgeyti> I'm pretty busy for the coming time, but got time to install ubuntu tonight. Is it advisable to install the daily image, and aptitude upgrade it when it's officially out. Would that give me a clean 11.04 install?
[17:48] <erUSUL> phonex01: the shell does the usbstitution for you
[17:48] <zaksoldier> did any one have iphone
[17:48] <phonex01> ohh
[17:48] <phdaemon> escott, how would i check that?
[17:48] <zaksoldier> please
[17:48] <phonex01> so my wireless is not working because of this
[17:49] <phonex01> i patched the wireless from compat-wireless  wireless and i changed the uname !!!
[17:49] <escott> phdaemon, just saying it may not be compiz, but related to your graphics card. what kind of graphics card do you have, what ppas did you install
[17:49] <LAcan_> is there a torrent channel.. like technical questions not warez per se?
[17:49] <natrixnatrix89> Hi I have the following problem: when I run iwconfig wlan0 mode Master, I get this error:     SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.
[17:49] <natrixnatrix89> I'm using rt61pci driver, and I'm using linksys pci card. On linuxwireless.org it is said that rt61pci supports AP mode. What am I doing wrong?
[17:49] <gecko_> Hello all, I am using lubuntu... I installed it today, but now I cannot boot back into windows? I read a few forums online but I still can't figure out how to boot back into windows. Windows xp shows up on my grub list but the screen just goes blank and then boots back into grub... Can anyone help me please? I am stuck
[17:49] <escott> phdaemon, updating compiz may not do anything if your graphics driver is barfing on large texture objects
[17:49] <usr13> phonex01: Change the name of ________ ?
[17:50] <LAcan_> phdaemon, its an nvidia isnt it?
[17:50] <phdaemon> yes LAcan_
[17:50] <LAcan_> phdaemon, did u enable the third party drive in "Additional Drivers"?
[17:50] <LAcan_> druver
[17:50] <LAcan_> driver
[17:50] <phdaemon> yes LAcan_
[17:50] <phdaemon> the one that might have broken it however
[17:51] <phdaemon> was the X Updates PPA
[17:51] <phdaemon> i enabled in tweak
[17:51] <LAcan_> phdaemon, please enable it thru the proper mecahnism
[17:51] <alexsander> problems with Sandy Bridge graphics on 11.04, anyone?
[17:51] <Guest13877> Hi all I need some help with vga switcheroo. So i have acer timelinex5820tg and it comes with intel integrated vga and discrete radeon hd 6550m. Problem is at boottime when not on power and on switchable mode in bios the machine wont boot..
[17:51] <Guest13877>  After the bootloader only black screen. Sometimes i have the same experience when running without battery only at ac
[17:51] <oCean> alexsander: still beta, so try #ubuntu+1
[17:51] <phdaemon> LAcan_, i have it enabled on the system -> proprietary drivers
[17:51] <LAcan_> phdaemon, do it thru additiona drivers under "System" in your panel
[17:52] <phdaemon> what i am saying is that upon enabling the additional PPA it updated my x config, and now it seems i have some errors
[17:52] <LAcan_> phdaemon, this wil enure that a_ you have the right driver, b) it is properly permitted
[17:52] <_Neytiri_> how do i see the last time a user loged in?
[17:52] <escott> Guest13877, switchable graphics is very experimental on linux, you might try explicitely setting the card in the bios
[17:52] <oCean> phdaemon: usage of PPA's is not supported
[17:52] <scorch_> Promille: u still around?
[17:53] <LAcan_> oCean, what does that mean? i use PPA's in the software centre...?
[17:53] <phdaemon> i am switching drivers in the system -> additional drivers
[17:53] <scorch_> does anyone here use snort?
[17:53] <phdaemon> lets see how it goes
[17:53] <oCean> !ppa | LAcan_
[17:53] <Guest13877> also when successful boot is performed i tried several times to stop gdm and there is only blackscreen...
[17:53] <LAcan_> oCean, but we can help ppl with their nvidia problems ya?
[17:54] <oCean> LAcan_: this channel cannot go on and provide support for everything. It has to end somewhere. For this channel that is the official repositories
[17:54] <oCean> LAcan_: sure you can try and help
[17:54] <LAcan_> oCean, but those "additional drivers" show up without adding any additional PPA's...?
[17:55] <Guest13877> sorry but my network dropped
[17:55] <scorch_> does anyone here use snort?
[17:55] <phdaemon> LAcan_, some of them do, but some showed up after. Im checking it out now, hopefully switching drivers resets the config and i should no longer have that issue
[17:55] <LAcan_> (its more of a question about the source for nvidia drivers) oCean
[17:55] <phdaemon> just switched drivers, restarting, brb
[17:55] <oCean> LAcan_: not sure which additional drivers? I myself don't use nvidia
[17:55] <Promille> barely, doing an paper. whats up?
[17:55] <LAcan_> phdaemon, make sure u check the "allow third party drivers" in "additional divers" and that they are enabled / green lighted
[17:56] <compdoc> scorch_, I used it on a firewall distro I used, but then I read it allowed a way in by hackers, so I disabled it
[17:56] <Guest13877> escott, so there is no way to get it working only with the intel card... unfortunately my bios doesnt support integrated only
[17:56] <Guest13877> ...
[17:56] <scorch_> compdoc: oh relly?
[17:56] <LAcan_> oCean, are additional drivers stored on the offical PPA's or do they come from elsewhere?
[17:57] <compdoc> scorch_, newer versions might have fixed it by now
[17:57] <escott> Guest13877, sucks there is only one option, but yes I would say use the radeon
[17:58] <scorch_> compdoc: I am having som issues.  when I try snort -v I get this:  --== Initializing Snort ==--
[17:58] <scorch_> Initializing Output Plugins!
[17:58] <scorch_> ERROR: Failed to lookup for interface: no suitable device found. Please specify one with -i switch
[17:58] <Guest13877> ok and about the battery, do you have any idea why sometimes it wont boot
[17:58] <Guest13877> ?
[17:58] <oCean> LAcan_: ah those, when they're mentioned as 3rd party, it is not maintained by official ubuntu repository-maintainers, so we cannot actually provide support. We/you still can try to help though :)
[17:58] <hypetech> scorch_: specify an interface like it says
[17:58] <LAcan_> Guest13877, can u choose a proper nickname "/nick <name>"
[17:58] <compdoc> scorch_, maybe its not instlled right. I only used it when it was installed for me in the firewall
[17:58] <LAcan_> oCean, roger that.
[17:59] <escott> Guest13877, the problem is you have two graphics cards from two competing chip vendors who want nothing more than to bankrupt each other slapped into a package by acer who did god knows what to make that work, and an X interface which has only recently settled on a 3d graphics subsystem
[17:59] <Guest13877> and even stranger with 10.10 after a "successfull boot" without battery some keys on the keyboard did not work
[17:59] <scorch_> hypetech:  I do and I get this:  ERROR: Fatal Error, Quitting..
[17:59] <phdaemon> LAcan_, it worked. I reinstalled Compiz, and switched drivers, rebooted now everything works fine
[17:59] <LAcan_> acer = overheating POS.
[17:59] <escott> Guest13877, was that the battery problem (and if you could pick a nick that would be nice)
[17:59] <top_ramen> Promille, I found out from the makers of the computer Mine should be able to boot usb
[17:59] <scorch_> hypetech: snort -i eth0 is the command i used
[17:59]  * LAcan_ 1, nvidia 0
[18:00] <LAcan_> phdaemon, in these new versions of ubuntu u are always better served to do things thru the GUI rather than console
[18:00] <hypetech> scorch_: how did you install it?  generally you need to pass it the interface and configuration file as well
[18:00] <phdaemon> LAcan_, that kind of sucks lol
[18:00] <LAcan_> phdaemon, ya i have same setup as you.. compiz plus tweakubuntu.... great sofwarez
[18:00] <scorch_> hypetech: installed from the repo
[18:00] <LAcan_> phdaemon, meh, im neutral. i like the simplicity of windows.
[18:01] <phdaemon> but i am noticing some weird bugs, like i usually install my software using apt-get
[18:01] <top_ramen> ok connect to irc via telnet is hard.... or im doing something wrong
[18:01] <phdaemon> but i just installed chrome, and it doesnt even show up in the menu
[18:01] <slinker1> Hello, awolfson_ , welcome to #ubuntu.
[18:01] <LAcan_> phdaemon, ur more hardcore things still need console, but base level stuff like drivers ur best servedd using the dosftware centre or additional driver facilities
[18:01] <phdaemon> i mean, thats extremely easy to fix, but its just annoying
[18:01] <Promille> top_ramen: Ok. try to download the latest update for your bios and try to boot afterwards
[18:01] <slinker1> Hello, chiluk , welcome to #ubuntu.
[18:01] <LjL> slinker1: disable that script, please
[18:01] <escott> todorkost, cool what was the battery issue
[18:01] <phdaemon> kk, thanks, i'll just idle here for a bit now hehe
[18:01] <top_ramen> Promille, first we need to build the live usb
[18:02] <slinker1> Hello, elshaka , welcome to #ubuntu.
[18:02] <Promille> top_ramen: thought you allready did that?
[18:02] <slinker1> Hello, Aremio , welcome to #ubuntu.
[18:02] <top_ramen> 6 minutes left on new 10.10 distro download
[18:02]  * LAcan_ someone boot him!?
[18:02] <slinker1> Hello, kingnus , welcome to #ubuntu.
[18:02] <LAcan_> top_ramen, and about that much time left before 11.04 comes out :)
[18:02] <elshaka> slinker1, hello!
[18:02] <todorkost> ok so by boot without battery only at ac adapter some keys did not function for example alt keys caps and numbers and q w a s y x
[18:02] <kingnus> hello
[18:02] <todorkost> and the shift keys
[18:02] <hypetech> scorch_: check your log directory and see if the snort.log shows why it's failing
[18:02] <Aremio> hallo
[18:02] <phdaemon> hmm
[18:03] <top_ramen> I am downloading it on my main computer to make sure its a clean, no errors download
[18:03] <phdaemon> hey LAcan_ what do you think about gnome-shell vs compiz situtation?
[18:03] <phdaemon> situation*
[18:03] <top_ramen> LAcan, I thought it came of thursday
[18:03] <LAcan_> phdaemon, u can run both side by side with a lot of success
[18:03] <elshaka> where can I find gnome3 + natty support? :P
[18:03] <kris_> hello there
[18:03] <phdaemon> really? from the research im doing it seems that you cant run shell and compiz at the same time
[18:03] <LAcan_> phdaemon, its just compiz is considerably more involved thn the gnome effect manager, so i dont twiddle with it. is u use the gnome + tweak ubuntu that should give you more than enough control
[18:03] <phdaemon> you would have to have to instances of gnome, (the shell and the old one)
[18:03] <usr13> _Neytiri_: last
[18:04] <escott> todorkost, thats weird. i would check dmesg and see if anything is mentioned there. thats just extremely strange
[18:04] <Guest72451> does anyone know if you can get frostwire fro ubuntu?
[18:04] <LAcan_> phdaemon, the gnome shell in 10.10 uses compiz, so thats not accurate
[18:04] <phdaemon> Guest72451, getdeb
[18:04] <todorkost> yea i know... it happened with 10.10 a few days ago
[18:04] <phdaemon> LAcan_, i didnt know 10.10 used shell
[18:04] <LjL> !frostwire | Guest72451
[18:04] <usr13> Guest72451: Sure, (but it is not discussed here).
[18:04] <LAcan_> phdaemon, u need to install the compiz settings gui (ccms or something) and then u can confgire more compiz settings
[18:04] <LjL> usr13: why on earth not?
[18:04] <todorkost> i switched to 11.04 with the hope I'll get the vga_switcheroo workin but it happened again
[18:05] <phdaemon> yeah, ccsm
[18:05] <LAcan_> phdaemon, sorry the 10.10 gui gnome thing, not shell my bad

[18:05] <phdaemon> LAcan_, yeah, but gnome 3 has its own composite manager which prevents it from playing nice with compiz
[18:05] <kingnus> Does anyone know intrusions windows
[18:05] <LAcan_> phdaemon, i mean, the only thing thats not implemted is "the cube" which seems like more trobule than its wortk

[18:05] <todorkost> i think it might be some hal problem , but how should i enter my dmsg when i was not able to log in my user profile or execute ctr alt Fsmth
[18:06] <LjL> LXGuy: yes, several people replied to you about that
[18:06] <Zundrium_> Is there anyone here with a modern nvidia video card?
[18:06] <phdaemon> LAcan_, another thing thats different is some of the smaller things like, wobbly windows, and the nice switchers and workspace change transitions
[18:06] <LAcan_> phdaemon, i dont think that is correct, but i am a newb. #compiz is a pretty active channel if ur looking for more deetz
[18:06] <hypetech> usr13: "p2p" does not always mean "illegal"
[18:06] <LAcan_> phdaemon, no, u just havent enabled those effects in the gnome graphics config
[18:06] <LAcan_> <-- has wobbly windows
[18:06] <escott> todorkost, got a usb keyboard?
[18:06] <phdaemon> LAcan_, gnome has those things built in? i always used compiz for it
[18:07] <LAcan_> phdaemon, try it out. call up the gnome gui config thing and set it the third option "max effects"
[18:07] <natrixnatrix89> Can anyone please tell me why command iwconfig wlan0 mode Master doesn't work for me?
[18:07] <phdaemon> yep, i saw that, but i thought it was integrated into compiz (it comes with it installed by standard)
[18:07] <hypetech> natrixnatrix89: have you confirmed that your wireless interface is actually called wlan0?
[18:07] <todorkost> no but it is an Idea to get to dmseg when it happens again ()
[18:07] <LAcan_> phdaemon, yes, the gnome shell uses compiz but cpofngires it thru its own interface
[18:07] <LAcan_> gnome GUI i mean
[18:08] <natrixnatrix89> hypetech: of course. All other commands work..
[18:08] <todorkost> ok thanks it seems there is nothing that i could do now to get the video......
[18:08] <Phalcore__> :D
[18:08] <shtirlic> just curios in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/760131 power bug   status is Fix Released
[18:08] <hypetech> natrixnatrix89: what's the error you get and what's your chipset
[18:08] <phdaemon> LAcan_,  yeah, thats what im saying. Gnome 2.x still relies on compiz for composite stuff VS gnome 3 having its own composite engine
[18:08] <phdaemon> LAcan_, kind of what KDE did
[18:08] <LAcan_> phdaemon, ah ok. this is my first real ubuntu install so i dont know previous versions
[18:09] <natrixnatrix89> hypetech: chipset is ralink. and It's using rt61pci driver..
[18:09] <shtirlic> where to find fix for this bug?
[18:09] <natrixnatrix89> error is:     SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.
[18:09] <bafilius> is there a way to reset nautilus? at some point it got stuck trying to open an archive and now whenever I try to start nautilus it tells me it can't open the archive. rebooting has not helped.
[18:09]  * LAcan_ is not liking the early reports for 11.04. I'ma wait for 11.10
[18:09] <LAcan_> bafilius, how are you "opening nautilius"?
[18:09] <pindropper> hello all. I just downloaded utorrent application and extracted it. how do i launch the application. when i double click the bin it doesnt start
[18:09] <usr13> natrixnatrix89: iwconfig | pastebinit
[18:10] <natrixnatrix89> hypetech: Because on linuxwireless.org it is said that rt61pci should support AP mode..
[18:10] <natrixnatrix89> http://pastie.org/1835978
[18:10] <top_ramen> GRRR..... why cant 11.04 be released tomorrow when i have a day off....
[18:10] <Phalcore__> how to install kitty on ubuntu 10.10?
[18:11] <bafilius> LAcan_: Places / Home, Downloads, etc. The only way I can get in is through dropbox
[18:11] <Phalcore__> im newbie please help ;)
[18:11] <erUSUL> !ask | Phalcore__
[18:11] <shtirlic> Guys, plese point me to the fix fof 760131, it was fixed in kernel or in ubuntu kernel settings?
[18:11] <KM0201> bafilius, try this... opena  terminal then nautilus /home/(username)
[18:11] <Phalcore__> okay sorry
[18:11] <LAcan_> bafilius, try Super+R "nautilus"
[18:11] <escott> bafilius, after killall nautilus; nautilus tries to resume opening the archive?!
[18:11] <hypetech> natrixnatrix89: if you do a search on "ralink master mode" there's an ubuntuforums thread that discusses the issue
[18:11] <KM0201> once it opens, right click a folder, choose properties, choose "Open With" tab.. and make sure nautilus is set as default
[18:12] <Phalcore__> can anyone help me?
[18:12] <bafilius> KM0201: That worked, but still not working from menu
[18:12] <LAcan_> Phalcore__, whats up?
[18:12] <Phalcore__> how to install kitty or putty on my ubuntu 10.10? im newbie
[18:12] <KM0201> bafilius, someone else had that problem yesterday.
[18:12] <LAcan_> bafilius, then u changed a setting somehere and added params to your default nautilus launcher, im guessing. try escott's suggestions
[18:13] <KM0201> bafilius, hang on a sec, lemme find what his solution was.
[18:13] <bafilius> escott: killall nautilus didn't help
[18:13] <LAcan_> Phalcore__, i dont know what that is, but did you try the Software Centre?
[18:13] <escott> bafilius, in terminal do killall nautilus; sleep 10; nautilus;
[18:13] <phdaemon> Phalcore__, why do you want putty in ubuntu? ssh comes built in
[18:14] <natrixnatrix89> hypetech: but if I buy an atheros chipset wifi pci adapter it should support it, right?
[18:14] <phdaemon> if you want to ssh TO ubuntu, install openssh-server
[18:14] <LAcan_> natrixnatrix89, u are trying to sniff wireless traffic?
[18:14] <phdaemon> and if you want to replace standard ssh, install openssh-client
[18:14] <hypetech> natrixnatrix89: yes
[18:14] <natrixnatrix89> LAcan_:
[18:14] <natrixnatrix89> nope
[18:14] <bafilius> if it helps, it goes directly to archive manager
[18:14] <gredasd> helo
[18:15] <bafilius> escott: tried that verbatim, didn't fix it
[18:15] <natrixnatrix89> LAcan_: Mode Master = my pc becomes like an acces point
[18:15] <LAcan_> bafilius, u have a bad association. you have set the archive manager to open your directories, imho
[18:15] <gredasd> what port ubuntu.pl
[18:15] <LAcan_> natrixnatrix89, just another form of sniffing, but more legit :)
[18:15] <key__> hi, I'm looking for the location of a hook that'd run a script for you when your box comes out of hibernation. I'm running 10.10.  I'd like to kick off /etc/rc.local whenever my machine un-suspends...
[18:15] <LAcan_> natrixnatrix89, mand in the middle?
[18:15] <BBgamer> Hey #Ubuntu, I'm currently running Ubuntu 10.10 maverick meerkat dual booted with Windows 7 and sometimes when I reboot in Ubuntu, it takes 10-20 minutes to detect my wireless network and connect. I've tried many suggestions on the internet but none fix them. (I have a Linksys WUSB54GS USB Network Adapter)
[18:15] <hypetech> LAcan_: or he's just trying to use his computer as an access point...
[18:15] <KM0201> bafilius, this is a log of a chat i had w/ someone who had the same problem yesterday, and he messaged me back today to tell me he fixed it, and how he done it.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/599401/
[18:15] <bafilius> LAcan_: it's a possibility, where can I look to see if that's what happened?
[18:16] <bafilius> KM0201: tx, I"ll get back atcha
[18:16] <Zundrium_> Does anyone here have a modern nvidia video card?
[18:16] <BBgamer> I do
[18:16] <BBgamer> Zundrium, I do.
[18:16] <Zundrium_> ah ok, with ubuntu?
[18:16] <pindropper> is there a way to start an application from the terminal. like launching firefox by typing 'start firefox' or something?
[18:16] <BBgamer> Yes
[18:16] <BBgamer> Nvidia GTX 470 Fermi
[18:17] <KM0201> pindropper, just type "firefox"  no qoutes and hit enter
[18:17] <LAcan_> bafilius, youll have to ask escott, but im sure somehwere in the System menu there is a file associaition GUI config
[18:17] <Zundrium_> ive been trying to run my Nvidia GTX 480M driver on ubuntu, without any succes
[18:17] <KM0201> all applciations can be started from terminal.. you jus have to know what to type
[18:17]  * LAcan_ should probably be in ubuntu to coach ubuntu.
[18:17] <BBgamer> Zundrium: Can't you just use the 'additional drivers' app?
[18:17] <BBgamer> Hey #Ubuntu, I'm currently running Ubuntu 10.10 maverick meerkat dual booted with Windows 7 and sometimes when I reboot in Ubuntu, it takes 10-20 minutes to detect my wireless network and connect. I've tried many suggestions on the internet but none fix them. (I have a Linksys WUSB54GS USB Network Adapter)
[18:17] <LAcan_> Zundrium_, "Additional Drivers" will fix your problem. look for it in the system panel menu
[18:17] <pindropper> km0201: well? what should i be typing?
[18:18] <KM0201> pindropper, well, what application are you trying to start?
[18:18] <Zundrium_> LAcan_: I allready did and it didn't solve the problem :(
[18:18] <top_ramen> Promille, I GOT IT..... wait whats this
[18:18] <tim> hi. after brasero segfaulting, ubuntu does not recognize my cd-rw, does not eject it and does not mount it. ubuntu 11.04 here
[18:18] <pindropper> km0201: chatzilla actually. also firefox
[18:18] <scorch_> where are config files usally kept?
[18:18] <BBgamer> scorch, think it's /etc/
[18:18] <KM0201> pindropper, what version of firefox?
[18:18] <ZykoticK9> tim, reask in #ubuntu+1 then
[18:18] <BBgamer> A question here:  I'm currently running Ubuntu 10.10 maverick meerkat dual booted with Windows 7 and sometimes when I reboot in Ubuntu, it takes 10-20 minutes to detect my wireless network and connect. I've tried many suggestions on the internet but none fix them. (I have a Linksys WUSB54GS USB Network Adapter)
[18:18] <escott> bafilius, did you get anything in the terminal to explain why naut was hanging
[18:18] <KM0201> pindropper, you can probably open it by just typing "firefox" in terminal, and hitting enter
[18:18] <phonex01> guys plz             help help it is the same problem !!!!
[18:19] <kemo> 11.04, when?
[18:19] <KM0201> kemo, 28th
[18:19] <pindropper> km0201: doesnt work. says unknown command
[18:19] <kemo> KM0201: tnx
[18:19] <KM0201> pindropper, ok, then try firefox-3.0  (i think thats what it was)
[18:19] <phonex01> iwlagn 0000:03:00.0: request for firmware file 'iwlwifi-5000-2.ucode' failed !!!
[18:20] <bafilius> KM0201: not sure what changing that folder name is supposed to do
[18:20] <ZykoticK9> pindropper, what version of ubuntu are you using?  it should be firefox (for 10.10)
[18:20] <escott> natrixnatrix89, not all wireless adapters support being put into modes like that
[18:20] <KM0201> bafilius, if i had to guess.. i'm guessing when he rebooted, it loaded a new configuration.
[18:20] <pindropper> km0201: that did it! thanks. but chatzilla doesnt work the same way. i tried chatzilla-0.9
[18:20] <KM0201> which fixed the problem
[18:20] <ZykoticK9> pindropper, you could try typing "fire" then pressing <TAB><TAB> to see available options
[18:20] <KM0201> pindropper, try just typing chatzilla
[18:20] <Zundrium_> LAcan_: the problem is that when i install my nvidia driver with additional drivers and use nvidia-xconfig to edit my xorg.conf file the next boot will show a terminal only, and when i use the startx function it says the error: "no devices found"
[18:20] <KM0201> pindropper, not every app requires the versino number
[18:21] <pindropper> zykotickk9:thanks. let me check.
[18:21] <LAcan_> Zundrium_, dont configure it that way
[18:21] <Zundrium_> LAcan_: which way is best?
[18:22] <KM0201> ZykoticK9, you know all thsi time, i didn't know terminal had tab complete..lol
[18:22] <KM0201> been using linux for 7yrs, and never knew that
[18:22] <LAcan_> Zundrium_, the GUI way
[18:22] <hypetech> KM0201: o.0
[18:22] <KM0201> been a while since i really learned something here in ubuntu..lol, congratulations
[18:22] <ZykoticK9> KM0201, lol - all those wasted keystrokes
[18:22] <escott> KM0201, that sounds painful
[18:22] <KM0201> escoload_, i type like 85 wps, so it doesn't really bother me
[18:22] <LAcan_> Zundrium_, what are you trying to get the card to do exactly?
[18:22] <KM0201> *wpm
[18:23] <pindropper> zykotick9: cool. that is awesome. so i am assuming all the options are pulled out of bin and usr/bin? so if i were to download any bin i should stick it in there?

[18:23] <Promille> !spam | phonex01
[18:23] <Zundrium_> LAcan_: just to use it for compiz fusion for example.. but if nvidia-xconfig isnt the right way i guess thats the mistake
[18:23] <ZykoticK9> pindropper, it's getting it from your $PATH variable
[18:23] <phonex01> spam ????
[18:23] <escott> KM0201, just in case we also have these things called text editors and compilers so you dont have to write your programs in assembly directly to the disk platter :)
[18:23] <Zundrium_> LAcan_: Can you explain me how to edit the xorg.conf the GUI way please? :O
[18:23] <KM0201> phonex01, my i suggest decaf, and stop being annoying, and maybe people will help you?.. stop flooding the channel, and use the pastebin
[18:24] <phonex01> ok
[18:24] <ZykoticK9> pindropper, i'd recommend creating a ~/bin and putting your 3rd party apps in there, or use links
[18:24] <KM0201> escott, lol, i'm familiar w/ text editors and compilng.. done that many times.
[18:24] <phonex01> plz help me !!!!!
[18:24] <escott> KM0201, good just checking ;)
[18:24] <KM0201> :)
[18:24] <pindropper> zykotick9: cool. was thinking of doing your first suggestion. don't yet know what links are .. but will google.
[18:25] <escott> bafilius, not clear on the problem then
[18:25] <KM0201> phonex01, all you'e done, is complain your wireless is not working, you've not one time stated what your wireless device is (and i asked you a while ago what it was).. just saying wireless doesnj't work, tells nobody anything
[18:25] <bafilius> KM0201: I'm just afraid to try that cuz he said he had to fix it with a boot disk. I really don't want to have to deal with that.
[18:25] <ZykoticK9> pindropper, links - symbolic anyways, are "similar" to shortcuts in Windows terminology
[18:25] <escott> bafilius, sounds like nautilus is running if you give it a folder it doesn't pop up the folder contents
[18:25] <KM0201> bafilius, read what he said, he said he moved those 4 files, and had to move them back w/ a boot disk.
[18:25] <wildc4rd> evenin all
[18:26] <llutz> phonex01: sudo apt-get install linux-firmware
[18:26] <KM0201> bafilius, but his problem as exactly as you describe.
[18:26] <phonex01> it is intel
[18:26] <KM0201> phonex01, there's a lot of intels, why don't you try being more specific
[18:26] <phonex01> [   22.239112] iwlagn: Intel(R) Wireless WiFi Link AGN driver for Linux, in-tre
[18:26] <KM0201> if you call a mechanic and he asks you what kind of car you have, you don't say "one w/ 4 wheels"
[18:26] <bafilius> escott: I have 2 ways to open nautilus now, command line and the dropbox icon, I'd like to open it up from the places dropdown (ie. without a work around) but when I do, I get the archive manager instead telling me it couldn't create the archive
[18:27] <phonex01> iwlagn 0000:03:00.0: Detected Intel(R) WiFi Link 5100 AGN
[18:27] <pindropper> zykotick9: ok. thanks. i know of it. never used it. just one more thing: When i double click a bin most of the times firefox opens up and asks if i want to save the bin file. It doesnt launch. do i always have to use the app launcher or use the terminal?
[18:27] <llutz> phonex01: that card needs firmware (as the error says), which you gett with: "sudo apt-get install linux-firmware"
[18:27] <escott> bafilius, and what was the suggestion that required the boot-disk (maybe there is an easier way)
[18:27] <Zundrium_> LAcan_:  Are you still there? :P
[18:27] <maniaks> How can I add covers to MP3 file?
[18:27] <pindropper> zykotick9: i mean how do the applications under the applications tab in the top bar start normally?
[18:27] <phonex01> i tried to use sudo apt-get install linux-firmwar but nothing !!
[18:28] <KM0201> escott, it was a chat i had w/ someone earlier(started yesterday) who had the same problem, and we did some trouble shooting on it, then i went to bed, and he messaged me this morning to tell me he'd googled and found the fix.
[18:28] <escott> maniaks, many of the audio players support cover art downloading
[18:28] <ZykoticK9> pindropper, you need to verify that the bins are set to executable in a command line you could use "chmod +x foo.bin" to change it, or right click in nautilus and executable is there somewhere
[18:28] <phonex01> i trie to install it manual from compat-wireless but nothing
[18:28] <llutz> !info linux-firmware
[18:28] <phonex01> i tried everything !
[18:28] <maniaks> escott, Clementine does?
[18:28] <Asmodeus87> Anyone knows why blacklisting of a module in blacklist.conf would fail? (mod name is not mispelled, I checked at least 50 times, plus I actually copy pasted it from lsmod)
[18:28] <brontosaurusrex> maniaks, some sort of mp3 metadata/tag editor
[18:28]  * LAcan_ is back Zundrium_ 
[18:28] <pindropper> zykotick9: ok. thanks a ton. you've been a great help.
[18:28] <bafilius> KM0201, I really want to avoid using a bootdisk and digging myself into a pit of complexity that I as a novice can't get back out of
[18:28] <ZykoticK9> pindropper, glad to help
[18:28] <aeon-ltd> m/quit
[18:28] <Zundrium_> LAcan_: Ah ok :D
[18:28] <LAcan> dfsd
[18:29] <LAcan> Zundrium_, sorry so what is it that u need to configre the card to do?
[18:29] <KM0201> bafilius, the only thing you'd have to do... is boot the live CD, go to the directory on your hard drive, and delete the ".old" off the end... then reboot to your install
[18:29] <llutz> phonex01: what does "ls -l /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-5000-?.ucode" say?
[18:29] <ActionParsnip> Asmodeus87: did you add: blacklist modulename
[18:29] <Zundrium_> LAcan: i need it to just be able to use the card for compiz fusion
[18:29] <bafilius> escott: nm, Alt-F2 was able to open nautilus for some reason, it's a bit cludgy, but it works, maybe narwhall will fix it magically
[18:29] <escott> maniaks, rhytmbox has a coverart downloader
[18:29] <Zundrium_> LAcan: and to use the X server configuration of nvidia
[18:29] <phonex01> ls: cannot access /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-5000-?.ucode: No such file or directory
[18:30] <tonysan> Can I resume my desktop session with vnc viewer?
[18:30] <LAcan> Zundrium_, ok thats easy
[18:30] <Asmodeus87> ActionParsnip: Yes. I actually had 2 to blacklist with just a one letter difference in the name. It works for the other one.
[18:30] <maniaks> escott, thx
[18:30] <llutz> phonex01: what does "ls -l /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-5000-1.ucode" say?
[18:30] <LAcan> Zundrium_, by using the additional drivers method, ubuntu is configured to use the card
[18:30] <KM0201> bafilius, i would not attempt to upgrade a machine that you know doesn't work, or is exhibiting errors.. thats a recipe for fail.
[18:30] <Zundrium_> LAcan: even the xorg.conf file?
[18:30] <llutz> phonex01: without quotes
[18:30] <LAcan> Zundrium_, you dont need to configre compiz directly, rather us should use the gnome app for grahpical settings on your desktop, its somewhere under System
[18:30] <phonex01> ls: cannot access /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-5000-1.ucode: No such file or directory
[18:31] <phonex01> i know man !
[18:31] <brontosaurusrex> !compiz
[18:31] <LAcan> Zundrium_, set that to the third option "maximum effects", then install tweak ubuntu to make additonal changes
[18:31] <KM0201> escott, this was what the guy told me fixed his problem (and he was having the exact same problem).. http://paste.ubuntu.com/599401/
[18:31] <llutz> phonex01: what ubuntu-version are you using?
[18:31] <LAcan> Zundrium_, if thats not enough u can then install the compiz gui config proggy, and make even more changes
[18:31] <ActionParsnip> Asmodeus87: interesting. Can you tab-complete the module name after typing:
[18:31] <brontosaurusrex> !scsm
[18:31] <LAcan> Zundrium_, (ccsm)
[18:31] <ActionParsnip> Asmodeus87: modprobe
[18:32] <brontosaurusrex> !sccsm
[18:32] <phonex01> 10.10
[18:32] <ceo> need you ide, am need chmod 664 for all file and used find . name how
[18:32] <Zundrium_> LAcan: ok ill try that, and what about the nvidia settings panel?
[18:32] <KM0201> !ccsm | brontosaurusrex
[18:32] <escott> KM0201, thanks
[18:32]  * LAcan wonders if we can get a bot entry for nvidia and compiz? this is the third guy in an hour with this problem
[18:32] <brontosaurusrex> KM0201, lol, thanks
[18:32] <KM0201> brontosaurusrex, :)
[18:32] <llutz> phonex01: sudo apt-get install linux-firmware                           what happens when installing?
[18:32] <TopRamen> promille, its working!
[18:32] <ActionParsnip> brontosaurusrex: do you mean: simple-ccsm
[18:32] <LAcan> Zundrium_, never used it, never had to. between those three apps i mentioned, youll be able to do everything u want
[18:32] <Zundrium_> LAcan: if i start the nvidia panel it says i need to run the nvidia-xconfig command
[18:32] <phonex01> linux-firmware is already the newest version.
[18:32] <KM0201> escott, he said it worked no problem.. like i said, i've not had the issue(not even using 10.10 to be truthful), but it seemed his fix worked well for him.
[18:33] <LAcan> Zundrium_, DONT START THE NVIDIA PANEL, yeesh
[18:33] <bafilius> KM0201: yeah, maybe I"ll try reinstalling nautilus instead and see if that helps, I just don't like to fiddle with my system files unless I absolutely have to
[18:33] <llutz> phonex01: sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-firmware
[18:33] <hypetech> !nvidia
[18:33] <brontosaurusrex> ActionParsnip, could be, i have one of those, the help was meant to be for Zundrium_
[18:33] <Zundrium_> LAcan: so i just need a clean install ( just to make sure) use additional drivers to install the damn driver and change the graphical settings to maximum
[18:33] <Asmodeus87> ActionParsnip: Yes and no. It's r8192e_pci and I have another one (which I need to use instead) called r8192e_pci_realtek
[18:33] <KM0201> bafilius, not sure i'd try to uninstall nautilous... maybe purge/reinstall...
[18:33] <phonex01> Reinstallation of linux-firmware is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
[18:34] <llutz> phonex01: check your sources/mirrors
[18:34] <KM0201> bafilius, maybe try that.. sudo apt-get install --reinstall nautilus
[18:34] <Asmodeus87> ActionParsnip: Would a stray new line at the end of the file cause a problem?
[18:34] <franciel_> Hi, how I can recover a deleted file?
[18:34] <LAcan> hypetech, who administers the bot? cuz in three sentences anyone can solve the problem easily
[18:34] <KM0201> that should reinstall it, and purge your current settings (which are likely your issue)
[18:34] <iceroot> franciel_: with your backup
[18:34] <phonex01> how ?
[18:34] <iceroot> !recover | franciel_
[18:34] <LAcan> Zundrium_, u shouldnt have to reinstall...
[18:35] <llutz> phonex01: /etc/apt/sources.list(.d/*)
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> phonex01: could try a wired connection or grab the deb from packages.ubuntu.com and transfer
[18:35] <escott> KM0201, bafilius is going to try reinstalling libgio since that is the supposedly bad file
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> Guest67539: nice try
[18:35] <yxz97> can anyone please help me setup my micrphone for skype
[18:35] <KM0201> escott, hopefully that works.
[18:35] <pindropper> I know that wget downloads files and pages. How do i get the output to the terminal without downloading the file
[18:35] <llutz> phonex01: get in manually from http://mirrors.us.kernel.org/ubuntu//pool/main/l/linux-firmware/linux-firmware_1.38_all.deb and use dpkg to install
[18:35]  * TopRamen slaps LAcan
[18:35] <ua> hello  everybody
[18:35] <escott> yxz97, does the mic work in gnome-sound-recorder
[18:36] <yxz97> I think well the mycrophone no works at all in ubuntu
[18:36] <Zundrium_> LAcan: Ah ok, cant find the graphical settings yet but thanks man! youve been a great help :)
[18:36] <KM0201> yxz97, it should be pretty easy... are you sure your settings are correct in sound devices?
[18:36]  * LAcan pulls out his burner: WHaddup foo?
[18:36] <franciel_> tks
[18:36] <ActionParsnip> yxz97: does it work in other apps?
[18:36] <TopRamen> you got my hopes up
[18:36] <LAcan> Zundrium_, its in there somehwere. look for it if not ill boot ubuntu and tell u
[18:36] <escott> yxz97, is this a relatively new laptop with an intel processor
[18:36] <phonex01> ok i will
[18:36] <yxz97> no work in skype
[18:36] <KM0201> yxz97, does it work in other apps?
[18:36] <yxz97> its a compaq presarrio v3500
[18:36] <LAcan> top_ramen, about what??
[18:36] <yxz97> its a bit old acutally
[18:37] <yxz97> no
[18:37] <TopRamen> 11.04
[18:37] <yxz97> no work on none
[18:37] <TopRamen> you made it seem that it was releasing today
[18:37] <KM0201> yxz97, if thats the case (doens't work anywhere) that strongly suggests a configuration area, click the sound applet (by the clock) and choose sound preferences
[18:37] <yxz97> can anyone plesae help me?
[18:37] <TopRamen> >…<
[18:37] <Zundrium_> LAcan: ok :) just a moment!
[18:37] <ActionParsnip> yxz97: then your issue isn't skype. If it doesn't work at all
[18:37] <LAcan> TopRamen, lol, its soon, but if i was u i would wait a few months
[18:37] <ua> i could not update software , when i apply it says   = http://paste.ubuntu.com/599413/
[18:38] <phonex01> im trying to install it but i have " A later version is already installed  "
[18:38] <TopRamen> why
[18:38] <yxz97> now? KM0201
[18:38] <evilsushi> ubadtu
[18:38] <KM0201> yxz97, click the input tab.
[18:38] <ActionParsnip> !sound | yxz97
[18:38] <ua> can you help me?
[18:38] <LAcan> TopRamen, I dont like 0-day warez.
[18:38] <TopRamen> ah
[18:38] <LAcan> ua, whats up?
[18:38] <KM0201> yxz97, ont he input tab, where it says "devices"... what are you roptions there?
[18:39] <llutz> !paste | phonex01: pastebin output of "dpkg -L linux-firmware"
[18:39] <LAcan> yxz97, ur card is likely being misrecognized by ubuntu
[18:39] <TopRamen> I have gotten used to 0-day warez since I run nightlies on my phone
[18:39] <phonex01> this is my sourcrs.list file http://paste.ubuntu.com/599418/
[18:39] <KM0201> lol
[18:39] <yxz97> no devices at all!
[18:39] <ua> LAcan>hi, as i said i could'nt update software,
[18:39] <KM0201> yxz97, well, there's your problem
[18:39] <yxz97> but the laptop has a mic option in front of it
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> yxz97: can you run the alsa-info script on the sound troubleshooting page and give the url made please
[18:39] <KM0201> yxz97, is this an internal mic, or a line in mic?
[18:40] <yxz97> I plug in my new head set.
[18:40] <yxz97> there
[18:40] <yxz97> so I guess external
[18:40] <KM0201> ok.
[18:40] <KM0201> very unlikely an external mic isn't going to work....
[18:40] <LAcan> ua, because u have a newer version already?
[18:40] <yxz97> alsa script info?
[18:40] <KM0201> yxz97, click on the hardware tab in that window.
[18:40] <LAcan> ua, what is the software?
[18:40] <Asmodeus87> Side question: where is modprobe.conf located? I tried /etc/modprobe.conf
[18:40] <Zundrium_> LAcan: Ok i use the ultimate profile now.. but it's not working. I cant see the wobbly windows
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> yxz97: if your system isn't configured to use it then it won't work the fact a mic is there means very little
[18:41] <yxz97> now? KM0201
[18:41] <ua> LAcan>what do you mean?
[18:41] <ceo> HOW to used premetion from 777 to 755 for all file ?
[18:41] <KM0201> yxz97, at the bottom, there's a pull down bar, whats it say there?
[18:41] <LAcan> Zundrium_, did you restart?
[18:41] <ceo> HOW to used premetion from 777 to 755 for all file ?
[18:41] <phonex01> the output of dpkg -L linux-firmware is "/." !!!
[18:41] <LAcan> Zundrium_, it should work right away
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> yxz97: click the links ubottu gave
[18:41] <yxz97> Analog Stereo OUtput.
[18:41] <Zundrium_> LAcan: nope
[18:41] <LAcan> ua, what software are u trying to install
[18:41] <ap> Hello Ubuntu land, does anyone know any Shell commands that I could type to get an application to start automatically every time I login?
[18:41] <LAcan> Zundrium_, try a reboot
[18:41] <yxz97> Analog Stereo Output KM0201
[18:41] <Dr_Willis> ceo:  you do not want to change 'permissions' from 755 to 777 for 'all' files..
[18:41] <Zundrium_> LAcan: brb :)
[18:41] <Dr_Willis> !autorun | apelgate
[18:42] <LAcan> ap, u can put it in your .config/autorun
[18:42] <phonex01> so guys ?
[18:42] <KM0201> try changing some of the options there, and see if it gets the input tab showing you have a mic.
[18:42] <Dr_Willis> !autostart | ap
[18:42] <en1gma> when does 11.04 get released GMT
[18:42] <KM0201> en1gma, 28th
[18:42] <maco> en1gma: when it's done
[18:42] <Dr_Willis> en1gma:  theres not a set time.
[18:42] <Pici> en1gma: When it is done.
[18:42] <en1gma> its already done
[18:42] <KM0201> maco, lol, win
[18:42] <llutz> phonex01: LANG=C apt-cache policy linux-firmware  | grep -i insta
[18:42] <en1gma> and you are not carmack....chuckle "when its done"
[18:43] <Dr_Willis> every time some asks.. they delay it another 20 min.
[18:43] <ap> Hi <LAcan> is <ubottu> a bot
[18:43] <KM0201> Dr_Willis, i was told everytime someone asks, Shuttleworth kills a kitten
[18:43] <phonex01>   Installed: 2.0-bt0
[18:43] <en1gma> i could imagine
[18:43] <Dr_Willis> KM0201:  'huffs' a kitten. :)
[18:43] <en1gma> but i want gnome 3
[18:43] <KM0201> lol
[18:43] <llutz> phonex01: thats backtrack, isn't it?
[18:44] <phonex01> no
[18:44] <phonex01> ubuntu !
[18:44] <Dr_Willis> en1gma:  err.. gnome3 is not in the next release by default.
[18:44] <llutz> 2.0-bt0
[18:44] <KM0201> hmm
[18:44] <Zundrium__> back
[18:44] <yxz97> KM0201, dude
[18:44] <ActionParsnip> KM0201: compaqs usually need an option on the sound module. Can you copy and paste the alsa-info command in soundtroubleshooting so s/he can run it for us, please
[18:44] <en1gma> yea but it will make it getting it alot easier
[18:44] <en1gma> im in 10.10 now
[18:44] <llutz> phonex01: however, it misses the firmware you need. remove it, install the one from repos
[18:44] <ua> LAcan>sys update, so i am trying to upgrade now, and i'll let you know if it works or not
[18:44] <Zundrium__> LAcan: still not working
[18:44] <KM0201> yxz97, ?....
[18:44] <Dr_Willis> en1gma:  You may as well install it now then., if you are just going to add gnome3
[18:44] <maco> en1gma: 11.04 discussion goes in #ubuntu+1, and no, it's not done. if you were in #ubuntu-release you'd see they're spinning new ISOs and uploading fixes still
[18:44] <Zundrium__> Lacan: additional driver not working as well
[18:45] <yxz97> KM0201, what else
[18:45] <KM0201> ActionParsnip, i've got a compaq laptop (actually a bit older than his).. its never caused me an issue.. but toying w/ the settings is not gonna hurt anything.
[18:45] <en1gma> true
[18:45] <KM0201> yxz97, if trying some different settings didn't work, then try ActionParsnip 's suggestions
[18:45] <ceo> Dr_Willis, yes....
[18:46] <ceo> Dr_Willis, yes.... couse am can't install smf on my ubuntu
[18:46] <ap> ok DR, is autostart a gui or something I type
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> KM0201: i can browse or copy and paste too easy as i'm on my phone on the way to work
[18:46] <KM0201> ActionParsnip, well don't have an accident..
[18:46] <yxz97> :(
[18:46] <LAcan> dsfds
[18:47] <Zundrium__> LAcan: Heya, still not working.. uninstalling driver and letting it get installed though the GUI itself.. not the run from nvidia.com
[18:47] <ActionParsnip> yxz97: you may want to run: alsamixer   and ensure the mic isn't muted or low
[18:47] <yxz97> is not recognized I guess
[18:47] <LAcan> Zundrium__,  ok i found ur option btw
[18:48] <yxz97> it now muted..
[18:48] <Zundrium__> LAcan: What do you mean?
[18:48] <LAcan> Zundrium__, im in ubuntu
[18:48] <LAcan> Zundrium__, and i can tell u where to go specifically now
[18:48] <ua> LAcan, it doesn't work i am trying to update "Review and Update Software"
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> Km0201: the script will also show release as well as if it is ubuntu and not something else ;-)
[18:48] <Zundrium__> LAcan: Ah.. the additional drivers window is completely blank
[18:49] <KM0201> ActionParsnip, yeah, i never used it (frankly have never needed to ).
[18:49] <Zundrium__> LAcan: and thanks for going through all the touble
[18:49] <LAcan> Zundrium__, but i thought it just worked like 2 mins ago...?
[18:49] <cdavis> I used gparted to resize sda1 and now fdisk reports the right size but df still shows the wrong size. Do I need to do a fsck or something?
[18:49] <DominikSo> Hi, can someone please help me? I cannot login into my ubuntu system anymore! Im desperate
[18:49] <KM0201> DominikSo, so boot recovery and change your password
[18:49] <LAcan> ua, uhhh.... is that a software package?
[18:49] <ua> LAcan>it saiys there's 233 selected
[18:49] <Zundrium__> LAcan: Yes, the additional drivers was showing a driver installed but not in use..
[18:49] <KM0201> !lostpassword | DominikSo
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> Yxz97: then unmute it in alsamixer  by pressing M
[18:50] <LAcan> Zundrium__, and now it shows nothing?
[18:50] <DominikSo> KM0201 thanks but how do I get into the recovery mode?
i mean for all sys
[18:50] <Zundrium__> LAcan: I uninstalled the nvidia packages with the package manager
[18:50] <LAcan> ua, go System\Administartio\Update Manager
[18:50] <DominikSo> no, the lkogin screen doesnt ask for a password anylonger
[18:50] <KM0201> DominikSo, from the grub menu.. you should have two kernel options, your "main" one, and then the recovery console
[18:50] <Zundrium__> LAcan: now it show nothing yes
[18:50] <DominikSo> I tried to install fingerprint reader
[18:50] <Zundrium__> LAcan: shows*
[18:50] <LAcan> Zundrium__, ok well, youre on your own then
[18:50] <yxz97> shit now the sound has gone!!!
[18:50] <yxz97> ActionParsnip, your fault!!!
[18:50] <maco> !language | yxz97
[18:51] <LAcan> Zundrium__, i suspect u should reinstall the packages, as you will need these
[18:51] <yxz97> no music!
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> Yxz97: no cursing please
[18:51] <yxz97> :(
[18:51] <Zundrium__> LAcan: Ill reinstall ubuntu because i allready screwed things up
[18:51] <KM0201> yxz97, you should switch to decaf.. you came here w/ a problem, thats nobody's fault...
[18:51] <LAcan> lol ok
[18:51] <LAcan> see u in 12 minutes Zundrium__
[18:51] <LAcan> Zundrium__, remeber the golden rule: DO IT THROUH THE GUI.
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> Yxz97: you muted your sound that's all. Are you even reading the screen?
[18:52] <KM0201> lol
[18:52] <ua> LAcan>that's what i am using now, but unfortunly it doesn't work
[18:52] <Zundrium__> LAcan: understood! :) Need to download ubuntu again first and place it on an liveUSB
[18:52] <yxz97> YES
[18:52] <ZykoticK9> LAcan, that's not a "golden rule" in my opinion
[18:52] <yxz97> RELAX

[18:54] <lucas-arg> since 11.04 is in freeze state, isnt it the beta like if it was final release?
[18:54] <phonex01> hi i solved wireless problem
[18:54] <Adom> KM0201: in busy channels like this its not important, but in smaller channels, its nice to see a persons status by just looking at their nicks.
[18:54] <eitch0000> hi guys. I have a problem with an application, bibble5, which crashes with error messages about wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64. I tracked the problem to being that the application is actually compiled for 32 bit and thus can't load the 64 bit libraries. This same package worked in Maverick, is there something I can do, to get it to work? I've got the ia32-libs already installed.
[18:54] <phonex01> it was really easy !
[18:54] <p1n9v1n> when i install ati drivers i can't login anymore, screen goes black, i have CRT monitor
[18:54] <LAcan> !windows
[18:54] <cyberkilla> Muahahaha
[18:54] <KM0201> Adom, i guess..
[18:54] <LAcan> !windows | anon
[18:55] <anon> i installed the driver in win7 on my other laptop but its still the same, its nvidia go7400
[18:55] <zizy> crazy channel
[18:55] <TopRamen> hey LAcan I have a question
[18:55] <LAcan> anon, why are you asking this question in #ubuntu?
[18:55] <TopRamen> how do I pull up the on screen keyboard
[18:56] <LAcan> top_ramen, no idea
[18:56] <sipior> eitch0000: run ldd against the application, see what library it can't find. make sure to install a 32-bit version.
[18:56] <Slyboots> Hey, Uh.. dpkg seems to have crashed dealing with a package and now I cant use apt (since the files are locked) but I cant seem to terminate the dpkg process either (killall and kill -9 dont seem to do anything)
[18:56] <LAcan> TopRamen, can u log out of top_ramen  ur confoozing me
[18:56] <Slyboots> Anyone know any other solution
[18:56] <LAcan> Slyboots, us the software centre
[18:56] <gumcaj> i've got a question, should i wait for the ubuntu 11 release two days or could I install it now as a beta and then update it?
[18:56] <sipior> eitch0000: install a 32-bit version of that library, is what i meant to say.
[18:56] <anon> was just a general ? really, have it beside me and thought id just get a few opinions
[18:56] <eitch0000> sipior, will ldd inform me if the library is installed but for the wrong architecture?
[18:56] <Slyboots> Im on the sserver install, cli only
[18:56] <ZykoticK9> !aptlock | Slyboots
[18:56] <LAcan> gumcaj, neither, stick with 10.10 for a few months
[18:57] <Pici> anon: This channel is for Ubuntu support *only*
[18:57] <TopRamen> sry this is my mobile and the other is my pc
[18:57] <gumcaj> I've used to have it, just remove it today ;d
[18:57] <LAcan> anon, if i wasnt banned in ##windows i would help u there
[18:57] <Slyboots> Its still not killing the process
[18:57] <LAcan> anon, but I am so I can't
[18:57] <sipior> eitch0000: not directly, but it will show a problem finding the library, even though the file exists on disk. "file" will show more information about the library in question.
[18:58] <anon> ok no props :-)
[18:58] <Slyboots> dpkg is still running, I need a way to terminate it other than kill -9, since thats.. not doing anything apparently
[18:58] <gumcaj> @ LAcan ubuntu 10 stopped working for my laptop and i couln't repair it
[18:58] <p1n9v1n> is there any way to set refresh rate in ubuntu on CRT monitor?
[18:58] <LAcan> gumcaj, then reinstall it.
[18:58] <LAcan> p1n9v1n, it should autodetect
[18:58] <SuperLag> Since Atheros drivers have been in the kernel for awhile, do I still need to worry about Linux compatibility when I'm buying a card?
[18:59] <sipior> SuperLag: it never hurts to check.
[18:59] <p1n9v1n> onl 60Hz, can i set it to 75 or 85?
[18:59] <SuperLag> I'm looking at buying an AR5006EG card from a private party
[18:59] <LAcan> actually i have a question about refresh rates: ubuntu says my lappy screen is 50mhz, bu i know for a fact its 60.. whats the sotry with that?
[18:59] <SuperLag> sipior: the problem is... I'm not sure what's current enough to be valid.
[18:59] <LAcan> p1n9v1n, ya somewhere hold on
[18:59] <sipior> SuperLag: ubuntu publishes a hardware compatibility list. look at it.
[19:00] <Radios> you gota love gnome 3
[19:00] <TopRamen> anyone know how to open the on svreen keyboard?
[19:01] <p1n9v1n> the monitor is old 17" CRT
[19:01] <LAcan> p1n9v1n, then it is probably set to max already
[19:01] <p1n9v1n> it's flickering
[19:02] <gumcaj> LAcan, I also had problems with connecting to my router, i had to remove a password from it because i couln't connect when there was a password on my router because ubuntu didn't detect my router if there was a password on it.  And I was wondering if it was fixed in ubuntu 11.  I know that I should give it a try and see if it works but I might ask you first if you might know anything about this if it's fixed
[19:02] <sipior> p1n9v1n: be sure that the monitor can handle the frequencies you want. picking random refresh rates can kill an old monitor very quickly. (although i can't imagine even old monitors without multisync nowadays)
[19:02] <LAcan> gumcaj, what type of security were u using? WEP i bet
[19:02] <anon> can anybody recommend the be linux version for netbook, (acer aspire 8gb)
[19:03] <gumcaj> I guess yes
[19:03] <gumcaj> let me check
[19:03] <LAcan> gumcaj, u cant use the plaintext version of the password, u have to use the key your router generates (there will likely be 4 (TX keys)
[19:03] <p1n9v1n> it support 85Hz but i can't set it
[19:03] <gumcaj> Oh
[19:03] <gumcaj> i don't get it, could you provide my any keyword so i could google it?
[19:04] <LAcan> p1n9v1n, then ur stuck at 60
[19:04] <LAcan> gumcaj, not really. i just know i had this problem on my office router
[19:04] <p1n9v1n> :((
[19:04] <LAcan> gumcaj, if u trust me i can remotely administer ur router, otherwise ull have to check and google ur model number / name
[19:04] <gumcaj> LAcan Ok thx
[19:04] <gumcaj> LAcan no,  its ok
[19:05] <gumcaj> ^^
[19:05] <LAcan> gumcaj, when u set ur security options, use WEP128, enter the passphrase. somewhere on that screen ull see for randome keys
[19:05] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[19:06] <Slyboots> Crap..
[19:06] <gumcaj> LAcan i think it was working when I've used only HEX 64 digs
[19:06] <Slyboots> This trn4 package wont install (crashes dpgk) but now apt keeps trying to install it x.x
[19:06] <LAcan> gumcaj, yes, the hex values, thats what u want to enter into ubuntu
[19:06] <Slyboots> And I cant remove it either because "the package is in an inconsistant state, you should reinstall it before attempting to remove"
[19:06] <DominikSo> So sorry to bother again
[19:06] <gumcaj> LAcan ok thx
[19:06] <gumcaj> LAcan i've got last question
[19:06] <DominikSo> what do I do when in recovery mode?
[19:07] <DominikSo> Everytime I get the login screen it doesnt even let me type my password
[19:07] <LAcan> Slyboots, so reinstall and then remove.. use the software centre
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> DominikSo: run: passwd username
[19:07] <gumcaj> LAcan when I switch off my computer when i am running ubuntu then when I press power button my laptop boots and I can'
[19:07] <gumcaj> t
[19:07] <gumcaj> see any thing
[19:07] <gumcaj> and then it switch off after 2 sek
[19:07] <gumcaj> sec*
[19:08] <DominikSo> where? Im in the recovery screen (blue with grey box)
[19:08] <gumcaj> and I have to switc it on few times to actually boot it
[19:08] <numberto> Hi, installed ubuntu 11.04 .    Here is the bug I get (I switched to ubuntu classic, since unity does not work),  when I open pdf file with larger width than my screen there must be a scroller on bottom. It appears, but only under the bottom panel, and there is no way to scroll to right/left.
[19:08] <ActionParsnip> DominikSo: use down cursor and select root
[19:08] <LAcan> gumcaj, you are not making sense, is this still the router we are talking about?
[19:08] <gumcaj> no no ;d
[19:08] <Slyboots> Im at a loss what Im suppoed to do to this fix
[19:09] <gumcaj> let me rewrite it
[19:09] <gumcaj> ;p
[19:09] <bastidrazor> numberto: if you have a mouse with the middle scroll wheel it can scroll left/right. a newer mouse
[19:09] <DominikSo> Ok sorry for being so rude. Im just really desperate... maybe it would have been more polite to introduce myself: Dominik. :)
[19:09] <ActionParsnip> numberto: ask in #ubuntu+1
[19:09] <Slyboots> Apt wont work because this package is half installed, I cant remove it because its only half installed.. and I cant instlal it because it crashes dpgk if I try
[19:09] <cache_surplus> whats the best most easiest way in cmdline to reinstall ubuntu gnome desktop?
[19:09] <Slyboots> So.. what am I supposed to do?
[19:09] <DominikSo> Ok did that but when I enter my password now it sais login failed... and Im 100% positive this is my password
[19:09] <cache_surplus> what other directories like .hidden should i remove as well?
[19:09] <LAcan> Slyboots, sorry u dont have the GUI right? u are server only?
[19:09] <Slyboots> Yes, no GUI
[19:09] <Dr_Willis> cache_surplus:  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop           normally
[19:10] <numberto> bastidrazor:  I know and I do that, but scroller that appers under the bottom panel is a bug (I can see a very small part of it and cannot drag it)
[19:10] <ActionParsnip> Numberto: natty isn't supported here until it is released
[19:10] <Dr_Willis> cache_surplus:  what are you trying to acomplish exactly>?
[19:10] <cache_surplus> Dr_Willis: that will just install, i said reinstall
[19:10] <cache_surplus> actually it wont do anything
[19:10] <bastidrazor> numberto: #ubuntu+1 would be the appropriate place to discuss. best of luck
[19:10] <cache_surplus> im trying to resurect my failed desktop that didnt load
[19:11] <Dr_Willis> cache_surplus:  are you sure its a system setting/gnome issue and not a user setting issue?
[19:11] <LAcan> Slyboots, ask escott, he is good at those sorts of things
[19:11] <Dr_Willis> cache_surplus:  try adding a new user - see if it works for them
[19:11] <slinker1> cache_surplus: apt-get install --reinstall app
[19:11] <Slyboots> Mm
[19:11] <numberto> bastidrazor:  OK
[19:11] <cache_surplus> slinker1: so thats the best way? also, do i need to remove any .hidden dirs? gconf so forth
[19:11] <cache_surplus> Metacity
[19:12]  * LAcan does anyone know what the next LTS version will be? will it be in 11 or 12?
[19:12] <cache_surplus> .xsession
[19:12] <Ima_Goodlady> whats going on here
[19:12] <Dr_Willis> reinsallibng gnome - will not alter the users settings in theior home dir cache_surplus,. You can just move all the gnome related config dirs some where. and see if it works for the user.
[19:12] <ActionParsnip> Lacan: 12.04
[19:12] <LAcan> Ima_Goodlady, just entering the symbolic phase
[19:12] <Ima_Goodlady> jacques lacan
[19:12] <cache_surplus> Dr_Willis: i dont want to add another user
[19:12] <nyuszika7h> LAcan: it will be probably .04, it can't be 11.04 though, it's Natty
[19:12] <LAcan> Ima_Goodlady, and we cant leave :)
[19:12] <gumcaj> Okay so, let's say I want to switch off my Laptop while I am running Ubuntu. Everything is okay, laptop switches off. But when I want to switch it on again, I press POWER button on my Laptop and the laptop turns on and switches off after 2 seconds by it self. So I have to try few times(have to press my POWER button, it will switch off, then again press it, my laptop again will switch off and then after third try it will actually boot) 
[19:12] <nyuszika7h> ^ spam
[19:12] <cache_surplus> i dont want to see if it works, i want to know definitely
[19:12] <Dr_Willis> cache_surplus:  its trivial.. but whatever.. move the users .whatever dirs to some othe rsubdir..  and test out gnome
[19:12] <Ima_Goodlady> what do you mean you can't leave
[19:13] <cache_surplus> nothing is trival
[19:13] <LAcan> gumcaj, is it an acer?
[19:13] <DominikSo> do I have to type in my username or password in Shell?
[19:13] <cache_surplus> no
[19:13] <cache_surplus> someone else?
[19:13] <gumcaj> No, it's HP 6735s
[19:13] <gumcaj> I don't have this problem when while I am on Win7
[19:13] <Sami345> #ubuntu-unregge is one terrible channel
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> Lacan: 8.04 was lts, then 10.04. Notice a pattern ;-)
[19:13] <Dr_Willis> cache_surplus:  You are trying to reinstall all of gnome. when it may be a simple user setting.
[19:13] <LAcan> Ima_Goodlady, no one gets to leave the symbollic phase
[19:13] <en1gma> i am doing a 10.10 32bit install to USB stick and that goes fine....when i try to update my vcard drivers its giving me an error and cant install....i should be able to update the vcard driver on the usb install shouldnt i?
[19:13] <cache_surplus> i have gdm and kde running on here for two diff users
[19:13] <LAcan> gumcaj, sounds like you are overheating.
[19:14] <cache_surplus> i use gdm most often, the kde user is a demo
[19:14] <gumcaj> But I don't have this problem when while I am on Win7
[19:14] <LAcan> en1gma, its an nvidia, right?
[19:14] <gumcaj> Are you sure its overheating?
[19:14] <blip-> Hi all, I know you can install different DE's and WM's on any version of Ubuntu that you start with but... how difficult is it to set up a proper LXDE or Openbox environment if you started with Kubuntu rather than a Lubuntu for example ?
[19:14] <en1gma> ati 5879
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> en1gma: you can do anything in live environment except reboot
[19:14] <gumcaj> because I haven
[19:14] <cache_surplus> i reinstalled gdm, gnome-desktop-env, ubuntu-desktop, compiz
[19:14] <gumcaj> 't
[19:14] <gumcaj> clean it for long time
[19:14] <LAcan> gumcaj, when u reboot and it turns off immediately, thats a hardware problem. im willing to bet its an overheating thing
[19:14] <en1gma> cant i do a install to usb just like a hdd
[19:14] <blip-> I basically want to use KDE + some light DE/WM.  So I will need to test KDE + Openbox,  KDE + LXDE etc..
[19:14] <leapy0yo> when I click on documents or home folder in the places drop down menu, it loads it in vlc... how can i change it back to file browser?
[19:14] <en1gma> so i can reboot
[19:15] <cache_surplus> finally i removed compiz afterwards, rebooting each time after gdm, and others i stated, even gnome-panel, it seemed compiz was the culprit
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> blip-: just install the de and select it at login
[19:15] <LAcan> gumcaj, i think ubnut has a higher heat threshold than win7, so .. i dunno make of that what you will
[19:15] <gumcaj> When I press Power button it turns off, but it is only if I use Ubuntu
[19:15] <Dr_Willis> leapy0yo:   i saw a url on fixing that. I b ookmarked it at --> http://delicious.com/dr_willis   should be near the top
[19:15] <LAcan> gumcaj, u can tell ubuntu what to do when it turns off
[19:15] <gumcaj> Okay ;p
[19:15] <cache_surplus> so i ask, what is the best way to reinstall ubuntu-desktop, i got that now, but also, what dir's should i remove, like gconf? is there a process to simply reinstall the desktop?
[19:15] <blip-> ActionParsnip, yes I know, but i mean about integration/appearance and all those other addons and tweaks that specific ubuntu flavors have.  Won't I lose out on those ?
[19:15] <LAcan> gumcaj, u can tell ubuntu what to do when you press the power button, rather
[19:16] <cache_surplus> i heard what slinker1 said
[19:16] <cache_surplus> did that
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> blip-: kde+lxde doesn't make sense. Both are DEs
[19:16] <LAcan> gumcaj, so in win 7 i assume it is going into suspend mode or sleep or whatever
[19:16] <en1gma> isnt there a way to install ubuntu to a usb stick just like installing it to an hdd so i can reboot etc...
[19:16] <Dr_Willis> cache_surplus:  you could use metacity instead of compiz.  iF compiz is the issue.
[19:16] <iceroot> !purekde | cache_surplus (use the remove-commands without the install kde part)
[19:16] <cache_surplus> i was getting a background and a mouse and sound, but thats it, no panel
[19:16] <Dr_Willis> en1gma:  i do full installs ti flash drives all the time. :)  8gb+ flash drives.
[19:16] <velcroshooz> en1gma, its called a 'persistent' usb install, and requires different steps.
[19:16] <blip-> ActionParsnip, yes actullay I use two DE's :) (not at the same time) .  Depending on my mood, if I want nice flashy graphics or need really bare minimum for coding and focusing on work
[19:16] <blip-> *actually
[19:16] <Dr_Willis> en1gma:  4gb can work. but its a bit too small to be useable.
[19:17] <cache_surplus> Dr_Willis: ok,,, good point, which works better, and do they both load when i install
[19:17] <en1gma> ahh ok now i know what to look for i think...i have a 16GB and want it to install like an hdd
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> blip-: lxde uses openbox so kde+openbox makes sense
[19:17] <gumcaj> LAcan oh, so it might be because of switching it of by pressing POWER button
[19:17] <cache_surplus> screen is moving way to fast
[19:17] <cache_surplus> pm me
[19:17] <en1gma> so i need to look for a persistant install guide?
[19:17] <gumcaj> LAcan I don't remember if it happened when I've used Ubutu option to do it
[19:17] <Dr_Willis> cache_surplus:  compiz is a widnow maanger with all the eyecandy. it requires the 3d video drivers.. metacity is the older gnome window manager. not as much eyecandy. You use one or the other.
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> blip-: the apps will be executable as normal
[19:17] <gumcaj> LAcan okay thanks for all
[19:17] <Dr_Willis> en1gma:  you can do a persistant install or a 'full' install.
[19:17] <cache_surplus> i have 3d vid drivers. :)
[19:17] <en1gma> ohh i want a full install
[19:18] <LAcan> gumcaj, maybe, but i think its a heating problem. if you are really motivated u should look in your bios for the overheating thresholds. they prolly wont be changeable, but youll know what they are, then in ubuntu u can monitor those temperatures and see if they match up
[19:18] <Dr_Willis> cache_surplus:  then somthing may be wrong with them if they are not working with compiz. or they got disabled.
[19:18] <blip-> ActionParsnip, ah ok cool.  so I will start with Kubutu and then install LXDE from the repos.  thanks
[19:18] <en1gma> is there a guide you can point me to Dr_Willis
[19:18] <Dr_Willis> en1gma:  thers no need for a guide.. run the installer.. point it to your usb stick.. let it install
[19:18] <gumcaj> LAcan oh, thanks  :)
[19:18] <en1gma> i did
[19:18] <gumcaj> LAcan bye ^^
[19:18] <Dr_Willis> en1gma:  at the end double check that its installing grub to the usb.
[19:18] <LAcan> gumcaj, if u want ubuntu to sleep as well, its in system/power management i bleive
[19:18] <cache_surplus> Dr_Willis: when i right click the desktop and change to desktop background and then visual effect, the 3rd option, is that Metacity?
[19:18] <en1gma> yea i can boot from the stick
[19:18] <LAcan> paiice.
[19:18] <DominikSo> Ok sorry ActionParsnip, I didnt chose root. Now Im in root, what do I do to login?
[19:18] <Dr_Willis> cache_surplus:  metacity would be no effects
[19:18] <blip-> ActionParsnip, one more thing, is LXDE just a tad heavier than Fluxbox ?   I have a powerful laptop so maybe there will be no difference
[19:18] <cache_surplus> under apprerance settings?
[19:19] <cache_surplus> oh
[19:19] <en1gma> it asked me the size of the area i wanted for persistant files i think
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> blip-: its fun to explore. I started on kde back in the day but settled on lxde
[19:19] <Dr_Willis> cache_surplus:  alt-f2  run 'metacity --replace' to   be sure its using metacity
[19:19] <cache_surplus> so when i select the bottom 3rd option, under visual effects, EXTRA, whats that?
[19:19] <en1gma> i going to boot to that drive right now
[19:19] <en1gma> brb
[19:19] <LAcan> cache_surplus, all effects are turned on
[19:19] <Dr_Willis> cache_surplus:  any effects will be using compiz with differnt settings. NONE = metacity
[19:19] <cache_surplus> so NONE is simple desktop no effects... so thats metacity
[19:20] <cache_surplus> is
[19:20] <cache_surplus> ic
[19:20] <blip-> ActionParsnip, yeah I've been changing things for 6 years and I still can't decide.  I settled on XFCE for 2 years but few months ago I got fed up with the GTK appearance and stuck with KDE4 since then
[19:20] <cache_surplus> thanks
[19:20] <FloodBot3> cache_surplus: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:20] <cache_surplus> been wondering about that for ages
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> Blip-: yes fluxbox and openbox don't need an underlying de so will be lighter

[19:24] <carlito> LAcan: nope, I installed bes express on the SBS server at work
[19:24] <josvuk> putting its in /etc/profile was not the right place.
[19:25] <carlito> LAcan: so much nicer
[19:25] <LAcan> carlito, oh ok, thansk anyways.
[19:25] <carlito> LAcan: tip for you
[19:25] <carlito> LAcan: use google a your sync server ;)
[19:25] <ActionParsnip> Josvuk: assuming it doesn't need sudo add it in the startup apps

[19:27] <ActionParsnip> Ashmew: unmount the partition and name in gparted
[19:27] <Dr_Willis> ashmew2:  gparted can do it.
[19:27] <josvuk> ActionParnsnip: Where are the startup apps?
[19:27] <ashmew2> ActionParsnip : kk thx
[19:27] <LAcan> carlito, lol ok, but last question: what is opensync?

[19:39] <bluenaartjie> unity was initially included in the netbook version of 10.10
[19:39] <Maahes> Is it possible to set up a folder which simlinks to a folder on another drive such that saving something to that folder actually saves it to another drive?
[19:40] <tbruff13> does anyone know how to use the timer applet and why it is not on my add to panel menu
[19:40] <bluenaartjie> so i would say unity is orientated towards netbook but is the default for 11.04

[19:45] <bluenaartjie> :P
[19:45] <LAcan> Sami345, enable the desktop effects.. it gets much shinier
[19:45] <llutz> juanefren: you have to add the apache2-bin to that line, not the init-script
[19:45] <Ulovlig> Anybody here have experience with ruTorrent?
[19:46] <Maahes> Sami345: I think it looks better than w7, but to each their own, try also downloading the elegant gnome package.
[19:46] <Sami345> LAcan, I want a shiny taskbar :D
[19:46] <LAcan> Sami345, download ccsm from the software centre

[19:49] <LAcan> cordoval_, did you check "additional drivers" and do u have a usb hub connected to your computer?
[19:49] <Maahes> no tbruff13
[19:49] <cordoval_> no usb hub
[19:49] <cordoval_> hardware if htat is what you mean
[19:49] <Maahes> tbruff13: in a terminal type killall gnome-panel
[19:49] <juanefren> llutz: I can't find apache-bin, where should be ?
[19:49] <cordoval_> additional drivers? where do I look that
[19:50] <LAcan> cordoval_, system/admin/ additional drivers. try it now
[19:50] <bluenaartjie> kill gnome-panel lol why?
[19:50] <LAcan> cordoval_, in the panel, top left
[19:50] <pdxracer> I have a question ... newbie here
[19:50] <cordoval_> ok
[19:50] <Maahes> pdxracer: just ask
[19:50] <llutz> juanefren: "/usr/sbin/apache...." most likely
[19:50] <pdxracer> If I download the beta today ... will it change to full version in couple of days?
[19:50] <pdxracer> or should I just wait til release is out
[19:51] <Pici> pdxracer: yes, and whatever you want.
[19:51] <yanick_> hi, I was googling to know if Netbeans 7 will be in the Ubuntu repository soon, but couldn't find anything about it. Does anyone know?
[19:51] <Pici> pdxracer: Keep in mind that support and discussion is only in #ubuntu+1 at this time.
[19:51] <pdxracer> or download 10.10 and then upgrade (fixing friends computer, they are pretty new to computers .. want to install so they dont ahve to worry about virii etc)
[19:51] <tbruff13> ok will the timer applet make a sound
[19:51] <bluenaartjie> yanick: can just dl netbeans
[19:51] <Maahes> tbruff13: I dunno, I don't use it. I use alarm-clock
[19:52] <pdxracer> thanks pici .. knew I could get a quick answere here     :)
[19:52] <tbruff13> Maahes, i didn't make a sound can alarm clock be used as a timer
[19:52] <Maahes> tbruff13: yes.
[19:52] <cordoval_> trying is searching for additional controllers/drivers
[19:52] <yanick_> bluenaartjie, yes, that's what I did for 6.9.1 about six months ago. I was merely curious
[19:52] <dan-work> I am looking for an app to be able to put a browser window in a terminal window. Specifically I want to put it in a terminator tab
[19:52] <cordoval_> the screen window for additional drivers is empty
[19:53] <tbruff13> Maahes, ok
[19:53] <Maahes> yanick_: might also try ppa's. *shrugs*.
[19:54] <cordoval_> what do you mean?
[19:54]  * Maahes wishes ubuntu would start carrying the patched version of rxvt-unicode in the repo, and add ranger from debian-ftp
[19:54] <yanick_> Maahes, yeah... I'm starting a new job next week and managed to get myself a nice workstation with Ubuntu on it, I don't know if I'll be able to play with adding new PPA's
[19:54] <cordoval_> anyone please help me recognizing my usb please
[19:54] <LAcan> cordoval_, so what is the problem? its listing USB devices and...?
[19:55] <bluenaartjie> yanick: 7.0 is out, http://netbeans.org/downloads/index.html
[19:55] <erUSUL> cordoval_: what kind of usb device?
[19:55] <juanefren> llutz I have put /usr/sbin/apache2, /usr/sbin/apache2ctl and /usr/sbin/apachectl
[19:55] <cordoval_> any type of usb device
[19:55] <juanefren> and still does not restart without using sudo
[19:55] <yanick_> bluenaartjie, yes, that's what I'm asking; if it'll be available in the repositories or not. So far, the answer is no, and I'll end up just installing it from the .sh installer
[19:55] <cordoval_> it does not mount automatically
[19:56] <cordoval_> LAcan: what can I try?
[19:56] <llutz> juanefren: you always have to use sudo. your line just makes sudo not to ask for a password
[19:56] <juanefren> :o
[19:56] <LAcan> what is a git repo?
[19:56] <cordoval_> how can i troubleshoot any usb is not automounting on my ubuntu
[19:57] <cordoval_> a git repo is a repository created with git software
[19:57] <erUSUL> cordoval_: so is a flash drive/usb disk not a soundcard
[19:57] <LAcan> cordoval_, so not compatible with a PPA client? like software centre?
[19:57] <zundrium> LAcan: Hey!
[19:58] <LAcan> zundrium, wazzzzzup
[19:58] <erUSUL> cordoval_: type in a terminal « tailf /var/log/messages » then plug the problematic device. paste whatever new output you get
[19:58] <erUSUL> !paste | cordoval_
[19:59] <zundrium> LAcan: Well,  using another laptop now :P because the boot is still the same. Installed ubuntu 10.10, updated everything, installed with additional drivers, restarted... and once again a terminal in my face
[20:00] <zundrium> LAcan: heh, any ideas?
[20:01] <mang0> I've got a problem installing ubuntu: Let me type it out, gonna take a min or two
[20:02] <MK``> How many partitions can I have on a disk with MBR? 4? (3 primary and 1 extended?)
[20:03] <mang0> right, so I've been waiting ages for my new HDD to arrive, it finally did so now I can backup my stuff onto it and install Ubuntu :D Problem is, when I try to install it from the LiveCD, it doesn't work. I apparantly don't have a harddrive bigger then 2.5gb, and also ubuntu won't connect to the internet...
[20:03] <mang0> !install mang0
[20:03] <mang0> darn
[20:03] <MK``> yeah 2.5GB is not enough for Ubuntu
[20:03] <mang0> no i know
[20:03] <mang0> but I have 120gB
[20:03] <mang0> :|
[20:04] <mcurran> anyone know how to switch the version of gcc being used quickly for a session or shell, so that you can change it back?
[20:04] <pcpower> CC=gcc-blah
[20:04] <mang0> 3 HDDs:one 1tb external, two 120gb internal
[20:04] <bluenaartjie> damn small linux is 50mb
[20:04] <bluenaartjie> mb!
[20:04] <LAcan> can I use a git repo in ubuntu?
[20:04] <mang0> one of the internals is for ubuntu
[20:04] <MK``> oh, it's not recognizing the space?
[20:04] <mcurran> sure download git
[20:04] <mcurran> wget
[20:04] <mang0> MK doesn't seem like it
[20:04] <mang0> :(
[20:05] <MK``> are you telling it to do automatic or manually partitioning?
[20:05] <mang0> I can't even get that far!
[20:05] <mang0> Basically
[20:05] <mang0> I open the liveCd, and hit install, choose my language
[20:05] <mang0> and then I can't go any further
[20:05] <MK``> what does it say?
[20:05] <mcurran> no, if i issue that and or export it, it'll still show the same version under gcc -v
[20:06] <mang0> the "foward" button is blanked out
[20:06] <bluenaartjie> (///.-) im emo
[20:06] <MK``> that's strange mang0. Maybe you can try a previous version like 10.04 to see if the installer works
[20:07] <zundrium> LAcan:  yo.
[20:07] <mang0> MK it has a list of 3 things: For optimal installation, your computer must have 1. more then 2.5GB hdd (Cross) 2. A working internet connection (cross) 3. a something I can't remember
[20:07] <mang0> with a tick
[20:07] <mang0> I was trying to install ubuntu 10.10
[20:07] <mang0> from live CD
[20:07] <LAcan> zundrium, u get it working?
[20:07] <mang0> Maybe I'll try without live cd...
[20:07] <zundrium> LAcan: Well,  using another laptop now :P because the boot is still the same. Installed ubuntu 10.10, updated everything, installed with additional drivers, restarted... and once again a terminal in my face
[20:07] <MK``> I believe the 3rd is that your computer should have a consistent power source/be plugged in.
[20:07] <LAcan> zundrium, type "startx"
[20:08] <mang0> MK yes, thats it
[20:08] <mang0> I've got a tick there
[20:08] <zundrium> LAcan: Fatal server error: no screens found.
[20:08] <bluenaartjie> (｀-´)> The People’s Republic of North Korea salutes you
[20:08] <zundrium> LAcan: And no devices detected
[20:08] <MK``> Ok. Is this on another computer so you can troubleshoot this as you do it mang0 ?
[20:08] <mang0> No :(
[20:09] <luckysky> d
[20:09] <bluenaartjie> （ ´,_ゝ`) a tear shed for those lost
[20:09] <jiltdil> mang0: 3)power coonnection :)
[20:09] <mang0> Although, I suppose I could use my mum's comp downstairs for IRC and continually run up and down the stairs lol
[20:09]  * LAcan can someone help zundrium, he cant startx; fatal error
[20:09] <mang0> jiltdil thankyou
[20:09] <mang0> :)
[20:09] <jiltdil> mang0: :)
[20:09] <MK``> mang0: does it give any indication that it is working on something as the button is grayed out?
[20:10] <mang0> Nope
[20:10] <Darael> Got an irritating problem with my wifi.  For about the last 24 hours, I've been able to connect but after about five minutes it starts dropping all packets until I disconnect reconnect.  Running a flood ping through the cycle gives a string of dots and then the repeating pattern "..E.............E..............E...".
[20:10] <mang0> The cursor is normal
[20:10] <mang0> not the white circle spinning
[20:10] <bluenaartjie> ヽ(´▽`)/ Yay!
[20:10] <zundrium> LAcan: Ah well, you did the best you could.. Im 2 steps further now! So it wasn't for nothing hehe
[20:11] <zundrium> LAcan: Thanks anyway :)
[20:11] <LAcan> zundrium, ya thats weird tho... where did you get the iso? is it the live CD for 10.10
[20:11] <data667> Hi.. Just wondering if anyone can help me setup a wireless n nano usb in ubuntu 10.10...I installed the windows driver app un ubuntu and picked the xp driver from the cd.. but can seem to get it to work..  its also a vm with vm ware.. and i did lsusb and can see it there
[20:11] <carlito> data667: lol
[20:11] <MK``> this screen mang0? http://scr3.golem.de/screenshots/1007/ubiquity/thumb480/ubuntu1010installer-large_001.jpg
[20:11] <LAcan> ps carlito , im making progress on this BB syncing thing
[20:11] <zundrium> LAcan:  the name of the iso is ubuntu-10.10-desktop-amd64
pretty much the same, yes
[20:12] <carlito> LAcan: good for you
[20:12] <LAcan> zundrium, do u have a 64bit machine?
[20:12] <mang0> Identical, apart from 3GB...mine says 2.5GB I think
[20:12] <MK``> Does toggling any of the bottom 2 ticks change anything?
[20:12] <zundrium> LAcan:   Yes i7 processor
[20:12] <mang0> No MK`` I tried that
[20:12] <LAcan> zundrium, were you able to boot from that CD as well into Ubuntu Live?
[20:12] <mang0> :S
[20:13] <LAcan> zundrium, or did you install from windows?
[20:13] <MK``> That is very strange. Did you verify the md5sum of the liveCD?
[20:13] <mang0> md5sum?
[20:13] <mang0> excuse my noobienes
[20:13] <mang0> ;)
[20:13] <zundrium> LAcan: I installed it from live, custom partition with swap and my windows package in a little partition of 16 gb
[20:14] <MK``> when you burned the disk, you should check to ensure it's identical to what it's supposed to be :P but I somehow doubt that is the problem, something to remember in the future
[20:14] <MK``> maybe you can try to see if a 10.04.2 LiveCD behaves the same
[20:14] <mang0> aw man, I don't wanna redownload that and make another livecd...it isn't re-writable
[20:14] <mang0> dammit
[20:15] <UncleNinja> (10.10) I just plugged in my logitech headset. I had it working before, but now it shows up in the pulseaudio preferences but I can't select it under the Input/Output tab. :C
[20:15] <MK``> when you try it next time, check the disk utility to see if ubuntu can see/mount your harddrives
[20:15] <MK``> if so, then that's not the issue at least
[20:15] <LAcan> zundrium, ya thats what i did too... thats f'd up man
[20:15] <mang0> Okay, I'll do that now before I re-download
[20:15] <MK``> ok
[20:15] <zundrium> LAcan: ARGH
[20:16] <LAcan> zundrium, ok, so u do get a bootloader right? the ubuntu one when u turn on ur PC?
[20:16] <mang0> MK``I'll be back in 15 mins if it doesn't work
[20:16] <Darael> mang0: In general, when burning the CD (this info being for next time, of course) it's best to use the lowest speed you've got avaiblable.  It helps to ensure there's no errors in the burn.
[20:16] <mang0> if it does
[20:16] <mang0> see ya in ubuntu!
[20:16]  * mang0 reads
[20:16] <UncleNinja> I mean it shows up under the hardware tab.
[20:16] <MK``> :P
[20:16] <zundrium> Yes, i can get into the system in recovery mode
[20:16] <mang0> Darael I did that
[20:16] <mang0> :/
[20:17] <mang0> MK``one quick thing....where is the disk utility?
[20:17] <mang0> apps>something?
[20:17] <Darael> Got an irritating problem with my wifi.  For about the last 24 hours, I've been able to connect but after about five minutes it starts dropping all packets until I disconnect and reconnect.  Running a flood ping through the cycle gives a string of dots and then the repeating pattern "..E.............E..............E...".  Have tried reloading kernel module for the card and restarting network-mananger - neither helped.  Ditto multiple reboots.
[20:17] <Darael> mang0: sys->admin->disk utility.
[20:17] <mang0> k thanks
[20:17] <Sexygurl2furl> hey guys
[20:17] <mang0> cya ina min
[20:17] <Sexygurl2furl> Does Ubuntu have a appdata folder
[20:17] <Sexygurl2furl> ?
[20:18] <data667> anyone have any ideas how i can get my dlink wireless usb to work in ubuntu? I installed the windows driver app and picked the driver from the cd.. also lsusb shows the dlink... having a brain fart i guess..
[20:18] <Yella> Hello
[20:18] <usr13> Darael: iwconfig | pastebinit
[20:18] <Darael> Sexygurl2furl: Not exactly.  What are you looking for?
[20:18] <Darael> usr13: Certainly.  One moment.
[20:18] <Sexygurl2furl> Darael
[20:18] <Yella> I want to launch programs from terminal but have terminal close when I launch it
[20:18] <Sexygurl2furl> A folder with like appdata
[20:18] <Darael> usr13:
[20:18] <Sexygurl2furl> like if i have a windows program that keeps its settings in appdata
[20:18] <Sexygurl2furl> and run that program under wine
[20:19] <Sexygurl2furl> where would those files be
[20:19] <MK``> Sexygurl2furl: usually it's in your home folder, that data
[20:19] <UncleNinja> Well, good timing. My X server crashed and now it works. :3
[20:19] <MK``> you press ctrl+h to show hidden files and you can see those directories in there
[20:19] <Darael> usr13: apologies.
[20:19] <Sexygurl2furl> i know but
[20:19] <Sexygurl2furl> which folder in my home folder?
[20:19] <Yella> There is no flags you can set to close terminal window after a program is launched?
[20:19] <Darael> usr13: aarg, I did it /again/! here: http://pastebin.com/wKvvb4Zw
[20:20] <LAcan> how can i figure out where my gtkmm package is installed?
[20:20] <Gnea> Sexygurl2furl: for wine, ~/.wine/drive_c/ is typically where I'd start looking
[20:20] <Darael> Yella: try "<program> & disown && exit"
[20:20] <MK``> your home folder, Sexygurl2furl, the one in Places > Home Folder
[20:20] <zundrium> LAcan: Im looking for solutions with google, it appears the problem is inside the xorg.conf...
[20:21] <Darael> Sexygurl2furl: To expand on Gnea's suggestion: ~/.wine/drive_c/users/<your-username-here>/Application Data.
[20:21] <jiltdil> LAcan: type gtkmm
[20:21] <Yella> Epic awesome Darael
[20:21] <Yella> Using ubuntu on my cellphone
[20:21] <Yella> And I need to launch apps from terminall because of no startbar
[20:22] <Yella> Lets hope I can remember that
[20:22] <LAcan> jiltdil, hrmm, command not found, but the package lists as being installed in software centre... do i need to install a different version than the one ubuntu defaults with?
[20:22] <Darael> Yella: May I suggest alt+f2 as an alternative?
[20:22] <usr13> Darael: Signal report looks find, right now anyway.  Do you thing it is an RF problem? (If so, it is intermittent.)
[20:22] <Yella> No alt keys on cellphones Darael
[20:22] <usr13> *fine
[20:22] <jiltdil> LAcan:in terminal without quotes "type gtkmm
[20:22] <jiltdil> "
[20:22] <data667> anyone have any idea why ubuntu would show my wireless usb n nano workin when its not? lol
[20:22] <MK``>  hate Alt+F2. It makes me feel like I am on windows
[20:23] <Sexygurl2furl> Darael
[20:23] <LAcan> jiltdil, ya its not found
[20:23] <Sexygurl2furl> It isn't in there.
[20:23] <Sexygurl2furl> :c
[20:23] <usr13> MK``: So what is wrong with Alt-F2 ?
[20:23] <jiltdil> LAcan: then sorry no idea
[20:23] <Soothsayer> will I be allowed to install Ubuntu 11 with gnome instead of Unity ?
[20:23] <Life> hey
[20:23] <Gnea> Sexygurl2furl: any program that you use with wine will keep its data in that directory structure only
[20:23] <usr13> MK``: You don't like hot-keys?  or...?
[20:23] <Life> can someone help me out?
[20:24] <ashmew2> Hi , there are duplicates in the Places menu , how can i remove them ?
[20:24] <tbruff13> ok I am trying to convert flv files using ffmpeg to AVM but i am using the frontend sinthgunt I only see avi not avm the same thing happened with winff how would i convert video to play on a small screen
[20:24] <MK``> usr13: I mean, it reminds me of Windows's run dialog. I prefer the terminal (and cmd in Windows)
[20:24] <Guest31012> Can someone help me out?
[20:24] <usr13> Guest31012: Not if you don't ask a question.
[20:24] <LAcan> jiltdil, do you know how i can install it?
[20:24] <Gnea> !ask | Guest31012
[20:24] <hiexpo> ashmew2, open terminal type nautilus
[20:24] <paybackturtle> really bogus: I copy some text from a document and cant paste it into a browser. What does it do? -clear the buffer? - keep a separate buffer for different programs?  -> yes I closed the document program, so? it should work. I thought that was only a problem "from" a browser "to" a doc. This is a bad wierd bug.
[20:24] <MK``> Soothsayer: yes, you can always use the desktop environment of your choice
[20:25] <ashmew2> hiexpo > after ?
[20:25] <Soothsayer> MK``: is it too much configuration?
[20:25] <WeLL> hello
[20:25] <Darael> usr13: don't think it's an RF problem, since it's always roughly the same amount of time after connecting.  Hang on, I'll pastebin the output from the last freeze (can't use pastebinit, of course, since it just times out).
[20:25] <Guest31012> Can someone help me out with an install error?
[20:25] <MK``> no not at all; In 11.04, you can select Ubuntu Classic from the menu when you login to use GNOME Shell instead of Unity
[20:25] <hiexpo> ashmew2, than a folder will open look on the left side colum
[20:25] <Gnea> Guest31012: not if we don't know what the error is
[20:25] <Guest31012> Wait..
[20:25] <ashmew2> hiexpo : opened what u said , now what ?
[20:25] <Guest31012> ill get it up
[20:25] <Soothsayer> MK``: oh I see
[20:25] <Soothsayer> MK``: what about gnome 3 ?
[20:26] <jiltdil> LAcan:firstly install  build-essentials
[20:26] <MK``> Soothsayer: I do not know if you can have GNOME 2 and GNOME 3 running at the same time :( that is out of my field of expertise
[20:26] <ashmew2> hiexpo : left column also has that duplicate.
[20:26] <Darael> usr13: http://paste.ubuntu.com/599455/
[20:26] <cordoval_> rats now my connection is down for some reason
[20:26] <hiexpo> ashmew2, in that folder on the colum remove the duplicates
[20:27] <brightspark> MK``: confirmed working on 10.10
[20:27] <jiltdil> LAcan:sudo apt-get install build-essential
[20:27] <ashmew2> which folder ?
[20:27] <zundrium> Anyone here with a modern nvidia graphicscard?
[20:27] <pcpower> yes
[20:27] <Darael> Soothsayer: I have seen GNOME3 installed in parallel to GNOME2.  You can't run them in the same session, obviously, but there's no reason they couldn't both be installed and even running in different sessions concurrently.
[20:27] <Soothsayer> MK``: why does Ubuntu have gnome 2 and not 3 ?
[20:27] <ashmew2> hiexpo: how do i remove the duplicates ?
[20:27] <Sexygurl2furl> guys
[20:27] <hiexpo> ashmew2, the one nautilus opened
[20:27] <Sexygurl2furl> i have a .exe installed
[20:27] <MK``> Cool, then you're all set Soothsayer. I personally have GNOME Shell, KDE, Xfce, and Xubuntu all installed on here :P
[20:27] <Soothsayer> Darael: so basically, I've to make the choice at the log-in screen ?
[20:27] <LAcan> jilt ok will do gonna take me a min since i started instaling the gtkmm-dev
[20:27] <Anpheus_> I realize it's a little late to complain now but Ubuntu 10.10 Server's "Minimal Virtual Machine" install does not include kernel modules for Hyper-V
[20:27] <Sexygurl2furl> and i deleted the path
[20:28] <Darael> Soothsayer: Yup, that's how I saw it when I did, if you see what I mean.
[20:28] <Gnea> Sexygurl2furl: what path? and how did you delete it?
[20:28] <cookiesunshinex> I'm trying to run a command line PHP command on Ubuntu 10.04 and then pipe the output to a text log.  But I get permission denied writing to the file even though I'm using sudo to issue the command.  What account are command line PHP commands run under?
[20:28] <Anpheus_> Does anyone know if Ubuntu 11.04 will? And why doesn't 10.10 include these paravirtualization drivers?
[20:28] <MK``> yeah Soothsayer at the login screen there is a selector at the bottom to select which environment to use
[20:28] <ashmew2> hiexpo: i opened the terminal , did a "nautilus"..my home folder opened.
[20:28] <ashmew2> now what do i do ?
[20:28] <jiltdil> LAcan:Second, install the GTKmm library (and the associated "dev" package): "libgtk2.0-1c2a" and "libgtkmm2.0-dev".
[20:28] <crlcan81> yay the broken linux images are fixed.
[20:29] <Anpheus_> Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?
[20:29] <Sexygurl2furl> so now when i try to uninstall it says that the following file does not exist
[20:29] <Sexygurl2furl> what can i do?
[20:29] <llutz> cookiesunshinex: use "php cmd | sudo tee -a logfile"
[20:29] <hiexpo> ashmew2, yes and on the colum on the left is there duplicates is so remove the duplicates
[20:29] <MK``> !natty | Anpheus_
[20:29] <LAcan> jiltdil, ok any other steps?
[20:29] <kkerwin> Hi. I just setup a Samba server on a Pogoplug that I own. The Samba server seems to be running well, and I can connect and see my files. However, I am having difficulty mounting the share so that it is writable. Can anyone help me, please?
[20:29] <cookiesunshinex> llutz thanks!  I'll try that.
[20:29] <ashmew2> how do i remove the duplicates which are shown under the Places Column , hiexpo ?
[20:29] <Darael> Sexygurl2furl: Try "Local Settings/" instead of "Application Data/"?
[20:29] <Soothsayer> MK``: GNOME Shell is the default thing right
[20:29] <Soothsayer> ?
[20:30] <jiltdil> LAcan: do you firstly installed build-essential
[20:30] <LAcan> jilt one second
[20:30] <Soothsayer> MK``: I see. GNOME 3 looks attractive
[20:30] <hiexpo> ashmew2, yes
[20:30] <LAcan> jiltdil, on sec
[20:30] <jiltdil> ok
[20:30] <Anpheus_> Please disregard ubottu, my question was explicitly not answered.
[20:30] <tbruff13> Requested output format 'amv' is not a suitable output format why wont ffmpeg convert to amv
[20:30] <MK``> Soothsayer: in 10.10, yes, GNOME Shell is the default. 11.04 comes with it as well as a fallback incase you don't have 3D support
[20:30] <tbruff13> and is avi the same
[20:31] <LAcan> jiltdil, ok build-essential is already installed
[20:31] <Soothsayer> MK``: the fallback is ?
[20:31] <cordoval_> erUSUL: please find here my error messages about the usb problem that can't mount http://pastebin.com/EVLgZdsv
[20:31] <usr13> Darael: Again, signal looks ok, don't see any reason to have connection problems.
[20:31] <ashmew2> hiexpo : im asking HOW DO I REMOVE ? i cant find an option to remove...if i right click , i dont see something like remove.
[20:31] <Anpheus_> I would like to know why Ubuntu 10.10 Server's minimal virtual machine install does not include hyper-v modules (hv_netvsc, hv_blkvsc...)
[20:31]  * jiltdil Ubuntu comes from an ancient african word meaning "i cannot configure Debian"
[20:31] <hiexpo> ashmew2, right click
[20:31] <MK``> Soothsayer: GNOME Shell :P labelled "Ubuntu classic" in the selector menu
[20:31] <Gnea> Anpheus_: if ubottu is telling you something, it's best to pay close attention. we don't support 11.04 in this channel yet.
[20:31] <Anpheus_> Oh good, because I'm asking about 10.10
[20:31] <jiltdil> LAcan:then  you should not have any problem :)
[20:31] <LAcan> jiltdil, as are the other two pakcages, but in 2.4 not 2.0 form
[20:31] <Guest31012> anyone know anything about the backtrack build?
[20:31] <mick_laptop> anyone know of an up to date kernel compilation guide for ubuntu? (last time i had to compile my kernel wa in the 2.2 days - surely things are a lot different)
[20:31] <pcpower> jiltdil: really? I thought it was "every release has new critical bugs that prevent it from being used at all"
[20:32] <LAcan> jiltdil, ok ima give this another go
[20:32] <Anpheus_> I was asking if anyone knew about 11.04 changing what is in 10.10, but I am wondering why 10.10's *virtual* kernel does not contain kernel modules for running as a *virtual machine* on some hypervisors.
[20:32] <mang0> bother.
[20:32] <Anpheus_> It seems like a glaring omission.
[20:32] <Sexygurl2furl> wtf son darael
[20:32] <ashmew2> hiexpo , OH , remove is greyed out.
[20:32] <cordoval_> erUSUL: did you get it?
[20:32] <Soothsayer> MK``: what was the need for Unity... I really don't like it... and plus it's like GNOME 3
[20:32] <hiexpo> !backtrack | Guest31012
[20:32] <cordoval_> all: please find here my error messages about the usb problem that can't mount http://pastebin.com/EVLgZdsv
[20:32] <Sexygurl2furl> used it wuld be there and it not their now i nub u nub we all nub and this yes doesnt make the sense
[20:32] <MK``> Soothsayer: Shuttleworth likes it, apparently XD
[20:32] <cordoval_> none of the usb's that I conect are automounting
[20:32] <Darael> usr13: Hmm.  Odd.  Well, thanks for looking.  Maybe it /is/ some kind of intermittent RF interference.  Guess I'd better try changing some things.
[20:32] <hiexpo> ashmew2, did you close the terminal ?
[20:32] <mang0> MK`` Ubuntu can't detect my drives
[20:32] <mang0> :S
[20:32] <mick_laptop> ah: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
[20:32] <Gnea> Anpheus_: well, this channel is also geared toward the desktop, while #ubuntu-server is for the server edition, but I imagine there's no hyper-v modules because no one's bothered to make it happen, and/or it's just not a high priority.... namely, no one's really expressed much interest to make it happen
[20:33] <kkerwin> Hi. I'm having difficulty mounting a Samba share as writable. Can anyone help me, please?
[20:33] <mang0> Disk utility and Gpartition can't see anything
[20:33] <mang0> they are NTFS i think
[20:33] <MK``> mang0: D: that's very bad. Saw nothing? Hm...
[20:33] <Darael>  Sexygurl2furl Wha?
[20:33] <ashmew2> hiexpo : no i didnt , i just put nautilis . nautilus opened , and terminal returned to prompt ?
[20:33] <MK``> Did they see NTFS?
[20:33] <MK``> Ubuntu can mount NTFS drives...
[20:33] <PiNKisH0t> it wasnt there
[20:33] <PiNKisH0t> and im confused
[20:33] <jiltdil> pcpower: cli vs gui
[20:33] <hiexpo> ashmew2, ok redo it again than
[20:33] <PiNKisH0t> im only 16...
[20:33] <mang0> My 2 disks are NTFS, and I can't see either of them in ubuntu
[20:34] <cordoval_> erUSUL: this line looks suspicious sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] 7831552 512-byte logical blocks: (4.00 GB/3.73 GiB)
[20:34] <hiexpo> !ntfs
[20:34] <cordoval_> as if the maximum that it can address is less than 2GB or so
[20:34] <Guest31012> can anyone help me with the [Errno 5] Input/output error ?
[20:34] <MK``> Did it see the physical disk at all?
[20:34] <cordoval_> however I think that is not it
[20:34] <mang0> nope
[20:34] <ashmew2> hiexpo: same thing
[20:34] <Anpheus_> Gnea: Thanks for being profoundly unhelpful. Hyper-V kernel modules are in the -server kernel, but for some reason not the -virtual kernel. Guess which one is more likely to need them?
[20:34] <mang0> Disk manager saw my nVidia card
[20:34] <usr13> Darael: It could very well be an RF interference problem, some other UHF xmtr on or near the same freq or a harmonic.
[20:34] <Anpheus_> I'll head to the other channel.
[20:34] <cordoval_> all: please find here my error messages about the usb problem that can't mount http://pastebin.com/EVLgZdsv
[20:34] <mang0> and the SATA connector
[20:34] <mang0> but not the disks themselvs
[20:34] <mang0> selves*
[20:35] <hiexpo> ashmew2, what version ubuntu you using?
[20:35] <Gnea> Anpheus_: please feel free to go there, you won't be missed here.
[20:35] <ashmew2> 10.10
[20:35] <Darael> usr13: In that case, should a channel change fix it, or is it unlikely to move far enough?
[20:35] <cordoval_> rats!
[20:35] <hiexpo> ashmew2, installed or live ?
[20:35] <cordoval_> this thing would not work
[20:35] <MK``> Ouch mang0. that is very strange. I'd try 10.04, then.
[20:35] <mang0>  MK`` should I format my disk in windows first?
[20:35] <Guest31012> can someone help me with the [Errno 5] Input/output error
[20:35] <mang0> ah
[20:35] <mang0> okay :(
[20:35] <ashmew2> hiexpo : installed , freshly
[20:35] <mang0> Is there a way to install without a CD/USB stick?
[20:35] <conical> question: I'm leaving for school and want to run my desktop linux box as a headless server
[20:36] <hiexpo> ashmew2, have you updated ?
[20:36] <conical> do I need to upgrade to Ubuntu Server?
[20:36] <linxeh> mang0: network ?
[20:36] <Soothsayer> MK``, Darael : So I should upgrade to Ubuntu 11.04 before installing GNOME 3?
[20:36] <ayecee> conical: no

[20:36]  * crlcan81 is already noticing a difference between the kernal he was running and the proposed kernal he just installed.
[20:36] <ashmew2> hiexpo: u mean upgraded ? no i did a fresh install...do u mean i should do a "sudo apt-get upgrade"..?
[20:36] <Darael> conical: Nope.  Although I did.  But you can just install the server packages that you want, it's the same repositories.
[20:36] <linxeh> mang0: you can do an install over the network, if you have a suitable server on your network
[20:36] <mang0> Ah
[20:36] <mang0> let me look into this
[20:36] <mang0> lol
[20:36] <MK``> Soothsayer: I don't know
[20:37] <hiexpo> ashmew2, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[20:37] <linxeh> mang0: do you have no usb sticks at all ?
[20:37] <mang0> I do, but I can't use it atm
[20:37] <mang0> its at school
[20:37] <cordoval_> rats! it says /dev/sdb does not contain a filesystem or disklabel
[20:37] <mang0> I have to do a presentation with it tommorow, so I left itin my desk
[20:37] <cordoval_> mount /dev/sdb1
[20:37] <ashmew2> hiexpo: im on a 512 kbps , ill give that a shot..will take around 3 hrs , ill get back afterwards then..Thanks for the help and patience :)
[20:37] <cordoval_> what does this mean?
[20:38] <brightspark> Soothsayer: unnecessary.  works fine in 10.10
[20:38] <hiexpo> ashmew2, no problem that is necessary first off
[20:38] <linxeh> mang0: ah, doh!
[20:38] <mang0> yeah I know....it was in my pocket as well, I almost brought it!

[20:38] <iku-iku> hi
[20:39] <cordoval_> rats and cats!
[20:39] <Soothsayer> brightspark: ok. But I might as well wait for 2 days I guess right? Since 11.04 is releasing as stable I heard.. so I can upgrade and put gnome 3
[20:39] <mick_laptop> damn the kernel has gotten big
[20:39] <MK``> mang0: I'd try 10.04 then, just to see if it can also not see the disks
[20:39] <mang0> okay
[20:39] <Darael> mang0: if you can root around and come up with ~10M of portable storage you could look at the minimal CD... if you don't mind a text-based installer.
[20:40] <hiexpo> MK``, use 10.04
[20:40] <mang0> Argh goddam you un-re-writable CDs!
[20:40] <cordoval_> what can I do to trobule shoot this thing?
[20:40] <cordoval_> please help
[20:40] <MK``> I just bought a 100 pack of blank CD-Rs, wish I could DCC some it to you :P
[20:40] <brightspark> Soothsayer: your call
[20:40] <Darael> I've used the minimal image off of non-CD media before, so I should probably not have mentioned CD in that.  But still.
[20:40] <hiexpo> oops   >  sorry MK``   mang0 use 10.04
[20:41] <mang0> I will
[20:41] <mang0> but I need to download it lol
[20:41] <mang0> And burn a CD
[20:41] <mang0> I have a 25 pack :/
[20:41] <Soothsayer> I just hope the upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 is straight forward
[20:41] <mang0> and like, 10 are gone
[20:41] <Lifeind> can someone help me out?
[20:41] <cordoval_> erUSUL: did you get it?
[20:41] <conical> ayecee: what's the difference between the two?
[20:42] <cordoval_> erUSUL: sounds like you can help me
[20:42] <hiexpo> !ask | Lifeind
[20:42] <Darael> Soothsayer: No upgrade is ever straightforward.  Unless it's lulling you into a false sense of security.
[20:42] <mang0> lol hiexpo
[20:42] <mang0> I was about to do that
[20:42] <mang0> XD

[20:45] <scottj> anyone know of an email client that takes gmail's quick reply box to the next level and makes it so when you read a mail you're automatically in a response field and can just start typing and when you send it you're still in a reply feel and can write more and send that? like making email more like irc/im
[20:45] <Lopyshok> i hate ubunty ;)
[20:45] <scottj> s/feel/field
[20:46] <linxeh> mang0: 10.04.2 will require less updates I guess
[20:46] <Phieni> I am currently updating to 11.04 and I am wondering why there isn't a mechnism to ask all paket related update questions at once? I do not want to sit the whole time and watch my pc updating just because there will be a question regarding a config file or so.... Is there a solution for this?
[20:46] <hiexpo> scottj, try thunderbird
[20:46] <Lifeind> dajhorn: hiexpo: backtrack was going to ask on there but their registration is broke.
[20:46] <robert__> nhhh
[20:46] <iku-iku> i have the following problem: i installed ubuntu as my second OS. After configuring thunderbird to use the same profile in ubuntu as in windows, I shut down the computer and booted under windows. Thunderbird, which opens at startup wanted me to create a new profile, then windows didn't respond anymore, not even task manager.Therefore I wanted to shut down my computer and pressed the power button. Unfortunately I didn't pressed it long
[20:46] <linxeh> Phieni: it will download everything first, then apply the updates
[20:46] <ybit> so.. i upgraded to 11.04.. glad it didn't crash.. however.. where are all the sexy gnome 3 changes i've seen in vids? Nothing is new except that now I have ff4.
[20:46] <scottj> hiexpo: is there an option in thunderbird or extension that does that?
[20:46] <Shaba1> hiexpo: yes I already have it on this machine. And I did not me to be rude with my response.
[20:46] <linxeh> Phieni: so you can start it downloading and then go back to the upgrade an hour later or whatever
[20:47] <Darael> scottj: Apart from those who would argue that email shouldn't be treated as IM (and they have a point...) there's such a thing as an email gateway for jabber/xmpp.  Don't know if it'll do what you want, but if so it'll work with a google-talk account.
[20:47] <MK``> iku-iku : your line got cut off after "Unfortunately I didn't pressed it lon--"
[20:47] <Phieni> linxeh; yes, but ask while upgrading ... "do you want to replace your custom smb.conf?" .... half an hour later "do you want to update your custom grub.conf?"
[20:47] <Igashu> ybit: afaik Gnome 3 is not present in 11.04?
[20:47] <Lopyshok> Help me pls with the sound...
[20:47] <piffer> anyone out there happy with Unity instead of Gnome?  not gone to 11.xx yet...
[20:47] <Igashu> it's Unity, right?
[20:48] <ybit> oh, yeah, i see i'm using 2.3 something
[20:48] <Igashu> and/or Gnome 2
[20:48] <rww> piffer: #ubuntu+1 for natty discussion, please :)
[20:48] <ybit> when are we getting this? :)
[20:48] <Lifeind> Can someone help me with my [Errno 5] Input/output error im using backtrack but the registration on their support is down.
[20:48] <iku-iku> MK`` thanks. what do i have to do then?
[20:48] <linxeh> Phieni: it shouldnt take an hour to upgrade
[20:48] <hiexpo> Lifeind, we can not give you backtrack-linux support in here   go to #backtrack-linux    and ask before pm anyone some find it very offensive to pm without asking first
[20:48] <MK``> I have no idea iku-iku :(
[20:48] <ybit> no google for me!
[20:48] <mang0> I don't know why this doesn't work...really annoying
[20:48] <mang0> another 600mb download
[20:48] <rww> ybit, Igashu, etc.: you too :) #ubuntu+1 is where natty stuff goes until release.
[20:48] <mang0> just for a test!
[20:48] <mang0> GRR
[20:48] <linxeh> Phieni: I believe you can pass options in to answer those questions though
[20:48] <Igashu> Understood!  Was just responding to a question, but will refrain in here in the future.
[20:49] <Lifeind> I cant speak in their
[20:49] <Lopyshok> help!
[20:49] <Lopyshok> =)
[20:49] <iku-iku> MK`` do you know where i could find help?
[20:49] <Lifeind> there registration is down.
[20:49] <rww> !register | Lifeind
[20:49] <MK``> you'll find someone here iku-iku, just wait to find someone
[20:49] <cordoval_> erUSUL: please find here my error messages about the usb problem that can't mount http://pastebin.com/EVLgZdsv
[20:49] <mang0> Lifeind
[20:49] <Phieni> linxeh: I am talking about dist-upgrade with update-manager -d ... this taks about two hours now on my dual core hp5310 laptop
[20:49] <mang0>  type /ns register pass email
[20:49] <MK``> mang0: you'll have a long term support disk, which helps
[20:49] <iku-iku> (what does my line gtot cut off actually mean)) MK``
[20:49] <mang0> true
[20:49] <Lopyshok> nobody help me..
[20:49] <Lopyshok> =(
[20:49] <mang0> right, I'm going to bed
[20:49] <linxeh> Phieni: get an ssd ;-)
[20:50] <mang0> cya guys
[20:50] <MK``> Oh, that's your client iku-iku, not all of them handle it correctly; goodnight mang0
[20:50] <hiexpo> Lifeind, you don't haveto register in there you have to register and be identified on freenode   !register
[20:50] <mang0> g'night
[20:50] <Phieni> linxeh: I would like to...  :)
[20:50] <Darael> usr13: Looks like it was RF interference after all - changing to channel 13 seems to have sorted it.  Thanks for your help.
[20:50] <Eiriksvin> hi guys, got yet another question... can somone post a link to where i can get the dev for that program like ndiswrapper... but the one that has the nice little Windows Wireless gui?
[20:50] <magnus_> anyone know how the new "test drive applications" function works in ubuntu 11.04?
[20:50] <Darael> !patience | Lopyshok
[20:50] <Eiriksvin> or is it a deb?
[20:50] <linxeh> Phieni: if you use apt-get to do the ugprade, you can pass in -y or --quiet etc to the process
[20:51] <Eiriksvin> the easy one to install
[20:51] <Lifeind> !register
[20:51] <Phieni> linxeh: and what is the policy for my custom config files then?
[20:51] <MK``> deb is the extention, Eiriksvin
[20:51] <MK``> it's short for Debiasn
[20:51] <Eiriksvin> oh, thanx
[20:51] <MK``> Debian*
[20:51] <LAcan_> dsfdsf
[20:51] <LAcan_> jiltdil, ok so the first error i encounter in my building process is : "configure.ac:61: warning: macro `AM_OPTIONS_WXCONFIG' not found in library"
[20:51] <Eiriksvin> im a noob, can u tell:)
[20:51] <Phieni> linxeh: it would be nice if my files would get the extention .bak and it would just use the package maintainers version
[20:52] <linxeh> Phieni: I'm just giving an example, you'll have to read up on what the exact behaviour is. generally it is considered dangerous and avoided by most
[20:52] <maxo> I'm trying to upgrade to 11.04 but I get: E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages
[20:52] <cordoval_> anybody please find here my error messages about the usb problem that can't mount http://pastebin.com/EVLgZdsv
[20:52] <rww> maxo: #ubuntu is for supported versions of Ubuntu only. Please use #ubuntu+1 for natty until it's released (probably on the 28th). Thanks!
[20:52] <linxeh> Phieni: see, my preferred would be to keep mine and put the package maintainers version as config.pkg or something
[20:52] <maxo> rww: oops, 2 days early
[20:52] <maxo> thanks!
[20:53] <linxeh> Phieni: I dont expect my stuff to all stop working after an upgrade, and have to go and reconfigure everything. I'd expect most things to continue working and to have the odd thing needing a patch
[20:53] <Phieni> linxeh: this would also work for me... I do not change too much, maybe cupsd.conf / smb.conf
[20:53] <iR34p3r> hi I just did a fresh install of blackbuntu, and everyth‌g was working fine. After I installed all the updates it still works, but there is lines through certain random things like the graphics is messed up. is this common after installing updates?
[20:53] <Phieni> linxeh: I did not know the switch --quiet, only -y hmmmm have to try this
[20:53] <sec_goat> I think i screwed up my sshd_config file, does any one know what the default sshd_config file looks like?
[20:54] <hiexpo> linxeh, anything you compiled yourself will no longer be there after an upgrade to a new version
[20:54] <Phieni> hiexpo: yes... thanks for the remark
[20:54] <joshmc> I want to set up a reminder using `remind` for two types of trash day, both occur on monday, one every other monday. Anyone good with remind?
[20:54] <jiltdil> LAcan:Install the development package for wxGTK (usually called wxGTK-devel). This will install the missing wxwin.m4 file.
[20:55] <pindropper> what command do i use to get the contents of a webpage into my terminal?
[20:55] <Phieni> finished updating to 11.04. gotta restart, cu
[20:55] <pindropper> wget seems to download a page. i need to display the html in the terminal. is this possible?
[20:55] <Darael> pindropper: either install links (or lynx, or elinks, or links2) if you want a command-line browser, or use wget -O -
[20:56] <pindropper> darael: thanks!
[20:56] <bastidrazor> pindropper: use lynx
[20:56] <iR34p3r> pindropper, sudo apt-get install lynx
[20:56] <jiltdil> LAcan:In your package manager, look for 'libwxgtk' keyword and verify that all libwxgtk2.8 stuffs are installed
[20:56] <iR34p3r> pindropper, too late lol
[20:56] <LAcan_> jiltdil, yup, installing now
[20:57] <LAcan_> jiltdil, only had the python package installed
[20:57] <pindropper> bastidrazor, ir34p3r: thanks. installing. :)

[20:58] <LAcan_> jiltdil, ok that is done, i should give it another go?
[20:58] <hiexpo> steampunkey, you using debian ?
[20:58] <jiltdil> LAcan:yes

[20:59] <Shaba1> What irc client do most of you linux users use?
[20:59] <LAcan_> xchat
[20:59] <joshmc> Shaba1:irssi
[21:00] <MK``> iku-iku: someone who can help :P who is not I
[21:00] <steampunkey> hiexpo: i'd still like your help? or rather, of someone who knows what's up with the above
[21:00] <iku-iku> ahaha
[21:00] <iku-iku> ok
[21:00] <Darael> Shaba1: I'm an irssi fan.  xchat is also popular, as are many others.  I know one person who insists on chatzilla.
[21:00] <MK``> irssi is a great client while you live in ignorance of xchat, but otherwise, xchat.
[21:00] <iku-iku> i'll just ask again from time to time =)
[21:00] <hiexpo> Shaba1, are you new to linux   probally use xchat2
[21:00] <MK``> or you can go hardcore and use mirc in wine
[21:00] <iku-iku> do you mind chatting a little or are you busy helping peolpe =)
[21:00] <joshmc> Shaba1:I used pidgin once; it was so-so but decent for integrating all my *other* IM-types.
[21:00] <LAcan_> jiltdil, do i need to rebot r restart my root shell for these packages to take efect?
[21:00] <glda19> ho have used opensc
[21:00] <Shaba1> I already use mirc
[21:01] <Eiriksvin> mircs not bad but i like IceChat
[21:01] <cordoval_> rats!
[21:01] <Shaba1> I finally paid for it a month ago after using it for 15 years :)
[21:01] <Shaba1> I figured what they heck.
[21:01] <iku-iku> i have the following problem: i installed ubuntu as my second OS. After configuring thunderbird to use the same profile in ubuntu as in windows, I shut down the computer and booted under windows.

Unfortunately I didn't pressed it long
[21:01] <Shaba1> Now I am *trying* to move from Windows network administration to linux administration in order to get back into the IT field

[21:02] <hiexpo> ^know
[21:02] <anonymity> Ubuntu-Tweak to try and change my login screen

[21:03] <anonymity> sorry, trying to change the login screen using Ubuntu Tweak but I can't find an option anywhere
[21:03] <cordoval_> hmmm what else can I try?

[21:06] <LAcan_> anonymity, right click the desktop, last option then Themes
[21:06] <joshmc> I want to set up a reminder using `remind` for two types of trash day, both occur on monday, one every other monday. Anyone good with remind?
[21:06] <Name141> if you install openssh-server on a live flash drive, what is the login you use ?
[21:07] <escott> anonymity there used to be a gdm setup gui accessible from within gdm
[21:07] <calamari> are there any programs (perhaps for a gui) that would override manual mounts? I get no errors on: sudo mount /dev/fd0 /mnt  ... yet when I check mount, is not mounted anymore
[21:07] <LAcan_> anonymity, for login screen go System/admin/login screen
[21:07] <MK``> That menu doesn't have a theme selector for me :(

[21:12] <iku-iku> yes
[21:12] <kermit> does autologin work in maverik? i set it, but it doesnt work.
[21:12] <LAcan_> jiltdil, wowza, that is a long list
[21:13] <MK``> LAcan_ / Squall5668 ^
[21:13] <iku-iku> i have the following problem: i installed ubuntu as my second OS. After configuring thunderbird to use the same profile in ubuntu as in windows, I shut down the computer and booted under windows. Thunderbird, which opens at startup wanted me to create a new profile, then windows didn't respond anymore, not even task manager.Therefore I wanted to shut down my computer and pressed the power button.
[21:13] <iku-iku> Unfortunately I didn't pressed it long enough and the Pc went to hibernate. Since then my PC doesn't boot anymore I get: "No module name found. Aborted. Press any key to exit" and after pressing any key: "Non-SYstem disk or disk error replace and strike any key when ready." If anybody could help me that would be awesome.
[21:13] <Squall5668> MK``: i just confirmed there is still a theme tab, what tabs can you see?
[21:13] <LAcan_> MK``,  System/Admin/Login Screen LAST TIME
[21:13] <MK``> There is no theme tab there LAcan_ :(
[21:14] <LAcan_> MK``,  man, stick to windows.
[21:14] <Squall5668> stop that LAcan, no need for that stuff
[21:14] <usr13> iku-iku: unplug power cable, pop out cmos battery for about 5 min or so and try again.
[21:14] <j2daosh> is there a switch for diff (or some diff-like command) that will tell me the number of changes made to a file?
[21:14] <LAcan_> Squall5668, some people are just too... unaware
[21:14] <Squall5668> then help them
[21:15] <LAcan_> the kid is retarded, sorry.
[21:15] <iku-iku> thanks usr13 i will try that
[21:15] <usr13> iku-iku: You may not need to pull the cmos battery, just try unplugging it for a few min.
[21:15] <MK``> Is there some special package I need to install to make you correct? :)
[21:15] <iku-iku> ok usr13
[21:16] <hippytaff> when does support for 10.10 end?
[21:16] <LAcan_> MK``, there is no "theme" for the login screen. u can set the default session, that is it.
[21:16] <cordoval_> rats!
[21:16] <jiltdil> MK':1. Move your favorite login wallpaper to your Home folder. Make sure that it is of .JPG format.
[21:16] <jiltdil> 2. Move the wallpaper to the system wallpaper directory. Type in the terminal:﻿
[21:16] <jiltdil>     sudo mv ~/your-wallpaper-name.jpg /usr/sh﻿are/backgrounds
[21:16] <jiltdil> 3. Activate the Appearance window upon login
[21:16] <jiltdil>     sudo cp /usr/share/applications/gnome-appearance-properties.desktop /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow
[21:16] <FloodBot3> jiltdil: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:17] <Cleaver> Im having troubles getting java to work on ubuntu with chrome
[21:17] <MK``> Why didn't you tell me that? Squall5668 said he saw a theme tab... I guess he was talking about the desktop theme settings.
[21:17] <Cleaver> Can anyone help me get it working?
[21:17] <escott> LAcan_, MK`` there used to be theming for gdm which was accessed through gdm login screen
[21:17] <usr13> Cleaver: Get what working?
[21:17] <Cleaver> Java :P
[21:18] <Squall5668> MK``: i was, maybe i misunderstood
[21:18] <usr13> Cleaver: What seems to be the problem?
[21:18] <jiltdil> MK':also see this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1594955
[21:18] <j2daosh> LAcan_: yes there is. Maybe not for you, but I have mine changed to a nice handprint that blinks the fingertips when I log in like its doing a fingerprint scan. :: shrugs ::
[21:18] <LAcan_> Cleaver, Application/Software Centre/ search for "java"
[21:18] <MK``> I ask because, I installed xubuntu-desktop a while ago and it installed a package called xubuntu-gdm-theme, which replaced my normal gdm theme with its own. It looks identical aside from the icons and color, so I assumed it was a literal theme. I guess I was mistaken?
[21:18] <Cleaver> http://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp plugin wont load
[21:18] <escott> MK``, in fact there *has* to be theming to make ubuntu gdm different from fedora gdm, which you could probably place in the right /usr/share directory
[21:19] <Cleaver> LAcan_: I have both installed runtime and web start
[21:19] <usr13> Cleaver: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[21:19] <LAcan_> j2daosh, maybe next time you can answer donks questions directly then? just a thought.
[21:19]  * LAcan_ is happy for you.
[21:20] <j2daosh> i joined the conversation at the time of you calling him a retard
[21:20] <LAcan_> lol ok, that was my bad
[21:20] <cordoval_> rats!
[21:20] <MK``> anyway thanks jiltdil I'll try that later
[21:20] <cordoval_> wonder why it would not ready any usb
[21:20] <cordoval_> erUSUL: please find here my error messages about the usb problem that can't mount http://pastebin.com/EVLgZdsv
[21:21] <usr13> cordoval_: What kind of device is it?
[21:21] <cordoval_> usr13: any kind it would just not work
[21:21] <glda19> how used opensc
[21:21] <cordoval_> does not exist filesystem and usbs in other laptop work normally
[21:21] <MK``> And LAcan_, please try not to snap :( I was having trouble, and I am someone who understands linux better than most people. And I've gotten help from you before lol
[21:22] <jiltdil> MK``:if you simply want to see the available .jpg image for login screen go in terminal use this cd /usr/share/backgrounds and then do ls
[21:22] <LAcan_> jiltdil, one of the messages is "possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_ERROR
[21:22] <LAcan_>       If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow."
[21:22] <usr13> cordoval_: Looks like it can't read the filesystem.  What is on it?
[21:22] <usr13> cordoval_: It is a thumb drive?
[21:22] <cordoval_> yes
[21:22] <MK``> i'm out for now, thanks for the help guys
[21:22] <cordoval_> thumb drive
[21:22] <cordoval_> any ideas?
[21:23] <guntbert> !enter | cordoval_
[21:23] <usr13> cordoval_: It says: "/dev/sdb does not contain a filesystem or disklabel"
[21:23] <cordoval_> usr13: what  can I try? I have tried a lot of things
[21:23] <Cleaver> usr13: thanks man, that did the tricks
[21:23] <LAcan_> jiltdil, will 'using m4_pattern_allow" break my build?
[21:23] <cordoval_> usr13: right
[21:23] <usr13> Cleaver: np
[21:23] <iroquois> anyway i can freeze the screen to read and digest something?
[21:23] <cordoval_> usr13: I feel this time you will hint me on what can I tr
[21:23] <cordoval_> y
[21:23] <cordoval_> I have googled it all over, and nothing
[21:24] <usr13> cordoval_: Looks to me like you need to format it.
[21:24] <cordoval_> all drives?
[21:24] <Squall5668> the usb
[21:24] <cordoval_> it is any kind of drive
[21:24] <cordoval_> it works on any computer but on this one
[21:24] <cordoval_> usr13: it is something else
[21:24] <usr13> cordoval_: All drives?  No.  just that usb one that you can't mount because it complains: "/dev/sdb does not contain a filesystem or disklabel"
[21:24] <joshmc> Okay, I missed the exceedingly obvious for marking every monday as trash day, but I'm still stuck on alternating the second event for every other day. I tried "REM Jan 10 2011 Mon *2 MSG Trash (greenwaste)" which outputs on the right monday... and every 2 days after it each time. Anyone have good remind chops that can point me in the right direction?
[21:25] <cordoval_> usr13: it complains in every drive
[21:25] <calamari> found the culprit... had to do use udisks --mount /dev/fd0 ...
[21:25] <jiltdil> LAcan_: i think  macro: AC_MSG_ERROR    notify the user of an error that prevents configure from completing
[21:25] <cordoval_> usr13: same message for every thumb drive
[21:25] <rklapp> and you're able to get other thumb drives to work on this computer?
[21:25] <usr13> cordoval_: Obvously not every drive becuase the computer is running.  Right?
[21:25] <cordoval_> rklapp: none
[21:25] <cordoval_> rklapp: I installed ubuntu on it not while ago
[21:26] <cordoval_> usr13: and it was through a hard disk external usb
[21:26] <LAcan_> jiltdil, i looked through that link but all the relevant packages are already installed...?
[21:26] <piffer> is it good practice to remove/uninstall/deactivate 3rd party video drivers before upgrading from one kernel to another?
[21:26] <Macer>  Timing buffered disk reads:  792 MB in  3.02 seconds = 262.17 MB/sec
[21:26] <usr13> cordoval_: So what kind of filesystem is on these thumb drives?
[21:26] <grantgm> which package is needed to get ffmpeg's " -vpre hq" option to work?
[21:26] <Macer> hm.. that seems a bit on the slow side
[21:26] <dd214> .
[21:26] <cordoval_> regular windows fat I think
[21:26] <cordoval_> it could be anything
[21:26] <usr13> cordoval_: How are they formatted?
[21:26] <cordoval_> it would just not pick it up
[21:26] <skulltip> it's not fat, it's big boned
[21:26] <usr13> cordoval_: Have you tried them an another PC?
[21:27]  * LAcan_ is getting so frustrated at this damn building thing. Grrrr.
[21:27] <escott> piffer no but do make sure to accept any video driver upgrades as well
[21:27] <hrezaei> hi! anyone to help me by teamviewer?
[21:27] <piffer> escott: thanks
[21:27] <Squall5668> cordoval: backup the usb in a box that can read it, and try formating it in the ubuntu pc, see what happends then
[21:27] <jiltdil> LAcan:maybe someone helps you related to this :)
[21:27] <grantgm> ffmpeg's " -vpre hq" option works fine on my one box, but not on the other. but i can't seem to figure out what the difference is is relevant packages
[21:27] <cordoval_> Squall5668: ok
[21:28] <cordoval_> doing that as now
[21:28] <LAcan_> jiltdil, i can install this package thru the software centre no problem, but it is .15 and I think i need .17
[21:28] <skulltip> whoa, openoffice coming back to +1?
[21:28] <thien> help me. the flash windows do not show fully (look the screenshot http://cb7.upanh.com/21.901.28863276.Oh20/screenshot.png)
[21:28] <aroman> Hi, I've got a new laptop and I want to run Ubuntu on it, but the drivers that I need for wifi/graphics aren't in Maverick's kernel. They are however in Natty's. I've got Maverick on the laptop now. Is there a way I can upgrade to natty on it, right now?
[21:28] <usr13> skulltip: What?
[21:28] <skulltip> ubuntu 11 features
[21:29] <Squall5668> aroman: apt-get dist-upgrade
[21:29] <grantgm> aroman, press Alt+F2, type in "update-manager -d" (without the quotes), and press Enter
[21:29] <kwtm> Squall5668: Oh, dist-upgrade will upgrade from Ubuntu 10.10 to Ubuntu 11.04?
[21:29] <grantgm> from http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/natty/beta
[21:30] <skulltip> sorry looking at 10.10 features
[21:30] <cordoval_> i will try to upgrade distro then will it perhaps solve the usb problem?
[21:30] <zvacet> aroman: you need alternate cd for that
[21:31] <iroquois> is there a way to freeze the  screen in here?
[21:31] <escott> cordoval_, doubtful usb mass storage is not something that has changed
[21:31] <cordoval_> will it just pull the distro over the web?
[21:31] <zvacet> aroman:why don´t you wait for few more days and go for clean install
[21:31] <thien> somebody help me?
[21:32] <samtate> Hi, I have trouble with my sound in Ubuntu 10.10, will Natty fix this?
[21:32] <escott> cordoval_, when you plug in your mass storage device can you type lsusb and pastebin the output
[21:32] <usr13> thien: Whassamatter?
[21:32] <zvacet> aroman: or upgrade final release
[21:32] <thien> please see: http://cb7.upanh.com/21.901.28863276.Oh20/screenshot.png
[21:32] <escott> samtate, what is the problem
[21:32] <usr13> zvacet: Is there a reason to wait?  I don't think so...
[21:32] <thien> the flash popup content do not show correctly, but it does in windows
[21:33] <guntbert> thien: the url seem to be wrong
[21:33] <zvacet> usr13: it is not final yet isn´t it
[21:33] <cordoval_> should I format it in which format?
[21:33] <thien> here http://www.upanh.com/upanh_screenshot/v/7tac3heebk.htm
[21:33] <samtate> escott: Well on a clean install, it works perfectly - including the sound menu and everything, but after inserting external speakers, the sound shuts off but nothing comes out of the external speakers.
[21:33] <cordoval_> fat? ext?
[21:34] <usr13> zvacet: Oh, no, it's not.   But I was thinking of using the CD (or dvd) to upgrade.
[21:34] <escott> samtate, what kind of hardware is this
[21:34] <usr13> cordoval_: I would use vfat
[21:34] <samtate> escott: Is there a command to find out my sound card, because i dont know
[21:34] <samtate> escott: Im pretty sure its an intel one though
[21:35] <zvacet> usr13: then you need alternate cd
[21:35] <usr13> samtate: lspci
[21:35] <escott> samtate, aplay -l or scan through lspci
[21:35] <usr13> zvacet: Yes.
[21:35] <ndlovu> hi all. I'm trying to sync playlists between my android phone and ubuntu - does anyone know whether this is possible in 10.04?
[21:35] <ndlovu> (using rhythmbox that is)
[21:35] <escott> samtate, you have a newer intel laptop right
[21:35] <jibadeeha> ndlovu, yes i do that with rhythmbox
[21:35] <guntbert> thien: sorry, my browser still cannot find your server :-(
[21:36] <samtate> escott: Yep, its an Advent 5411, just over 1 year old
[21:36] <zvacet> usr13: do it if you want to
[21:36] <ndlovu> jibadeeha, how do you get the playlists to sync?
[21:36] <thien> guntbert: can find imageshack?
[21:36] <jibadeeha> ndlovu, i have a HTC hero (android 2.2) and regularly sync it with rhythmbox
[21:36] <guntbert> thien: yes
[21:36] <escott> samtate, so thats not too uncommon yes there is some possibility that it could be fixed in natty, or you could try using hda_analyzer.py from the alsa website
[21:37] <jibadeeha> ndlovu, just drag it across and it syncs the changes
[21:37] <glda19> how used opesc
[21:37] <samtate> escott: http://pastebin.com/Hgxu4jEV - that's aplay -l
[21:37] <glda19> how used opensc
[21:37] <thien> guntbert: here, help me please http://img685.imageshack.us/i/screenshotuvq.png/
[21:37] <cordoval_> ok here it comes
[21:37] <cordoval_> http://pastebin.com/QCdCd2ZK
[21:37] <usr13> thien: What seems to be the problem?
[21:38] <ndlovu> jibadeeha, how do you drag the playlist across? in rhythmbox?
[21:38] <thien> usr13: it does not show fully
[21:38] <escott> cordoval_, there is no usb mass storage device attached according to that lsusb
[21:38] <jibadeeha> ndlovu, just drop it on my android icon that appears at the bottom of the list
[21:38] <cordoval_> so it is not detecting it
[21:38] <escott> cordoval_, unless its that HP device
[21:38] <cordoval_> for some reason or mounting it
[21:38] <cordoval_> yes it is hp
[21:38] <samtate> escott: How do I use hta_analyzer?
[21:38] <cordoval_> the usb now is hp
[21:38] <samtate> hda*
[21:39] <cordoval_> so what should I do?
[21:39] <cordoval_> it is not mounting that hp device which was just formatted
[21:39]  * murphy|away ñêîðî áóäó: Gone away for now

[21:39] <ndlovu> jibadeeha, which version of ubuntu are you using?
[21:40] <thien> guntbert: yes, other sites' flash work ok

[21:40] <Darael> Got an irritating problem with my wifi.  For about the last 24 hours, I've been able to connect but after about five minutes it starts dropping all packets until I disconnect and reconnect.  Running a flood ping through the cycle gives a string of dots and then the repeating pattern "..E.............E..............E...".  Have tried reloading kernel module for the card and restarting network-mananger - neither helped.  Ditto multiple reboots. Was ...
[21:40] <Darael> ... thought to be RF interference, but changing channels (6->13) made no difference.
[21:40] <cordoval_> that is the whole information
[21:40] <usr13> thien: Are you saying that flashplayer is not working properly?
[21:40] <Squall5668> jibadeeha: please go to #ubuntu+1
[21:40] <cordoval_> http://pastebin.com/5dTVn26R
[21:40] <cordoval_> that is the whole information
[21:41] <jibadeeha> Squall5668, i am already there and was just answering a question
[21:41] <guntbert> thien: please PM me the url - I'll try how it looks for me
[21:41] <whit> morning!
[21:41] <ndlovu> jibadeeha, I'm still on 10.04, so it could be a version difference
[21:41] <thien> usr13: yes, the popup content does not show correctly
[21:41] <cordoval_> it shows the hp, so what does this mean http://pastebin.com/5dTVn26R ?
[21:41] <ndlovu> I can see the device, but there are no sync options, and I can't drag playlists across
[21:41] <aroman> zvacet: because Maverick doesn't support my graphics or wireless card
[21:41] <thien> guntbert: http://www.voanews.com/learningenglish/theclassroom/articles/education/The-Peace-Corps-at-50-120224304.html#
[21:42] <whit> where is the best place to go to get an iso of lucid lynx?
[21:42] <usr13> cordoval_: mount | pastebinit
[21:42] <escott> cordoval_, are you plugging your device directly into the computer slot
[21:42] <jibadeeha> ndlovu, i am sure it worked in 10.04 .. daren't mention the other version in this sentence :(
[21:42] <ayecee> whit: ubuntu.com
[21:42] <Guest86075> How I install a JRE(for programming JAVA) and Eclipse on LUbuntu??
[21:42] <zvacet> aroman: but it will natty in few days is that to long to wait
[21:42] <whit> ayecee: where on ubuntu.com?
[21:42] <thien> guntbert: click Open at 1.Vocabulary Skills section at the right side
[21:42] <aroman> zvacet: yeah, I can't use the laptop otherwise lol
[21:42] <Squall5668> whit:http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
[21:42] <aroman> and besides, what's the big deal
[21:42] <aroman> it's a few days away
[21:43] <zvacet> aroman: if it is download alternate cd and upgrade with it
[21:43] <ayecee> whit: click on "download"
[21:43] <whit> Squall5668: thanks! is there something similar for the server?
[21:43] <Squall5668> http://www.ubuntu.com/business/get-ubuntu/download
[21:43] <aroman> zvacet: No i mean because of the drviers
[21:43] <ndlovu> thanks jibadeeha, it's good to know that it works - I'll see if I can figure it out on my system
[21:43] <usr13> thien: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[21:44] <whit> so dumb question, is lucid the most current version? because that's what I get here
[21:44] <guntbert> thien: I can only confirm: looks here the same way (seem to be an error from the creator, they set the geometry wrong)
[21:44] <usr13> !lucid | whit
[21:44] <ayecee> whit: no, maverick meerkat (10.10) is the most recent.
[21:44] <MK``> whit: current is Maverick Meerkat
[21:44] <cordoval_> here it comes usr13:
[21:44] <ayecee> whit: however, lucid lynx (10.04) is the most recent LTS release.
[21:44] <jibadeeha> ndlovu, going to check it out now for you brb
[21:44] <cordoval_> http://pastebin.com/Wua63nY7
[21:45] <thien> usr13: it's a flash one, why to install sun java? (though installed )
[21:45] <whit> alright, so ubottu gets the win for the answer.
[21:45] <zvacet> aroman: do you have any info that drivers will work in natty
[21:45] <thien> guntbert: thanks
[21:45] <cordoval_> http://pastebin.com/Wua63nY7 is not showing any usb right?
[21:45] <guntbert> thien: in Chromium the pop up has a scroll bar, so you can use it
[21:46] <thien> guntbert: ok, i'll try. thanks very much.
[21:46] <escott> cordoval_, so sdb1 is the hp device and sudo mkdir /mnt/test; sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/test; gives what error
[21:46] <guntbert> thien: no problem :) and Good luck :-)
[21:47] <usr13> cordoval_: Do you want to re-format it?
[21:47] <cordoval_> usr13:  gives no error I think
[21:47] <usr13> cordoval_: Then try and mount it.
[21:47] <cordoval_> but it would not let me write on it
[21:47] <escott> cordoval_, but /dev/sdb1 is not listed in mount after you try to mount it?
[21:48] <escott> cordoval_, what does ls -l /dev/test say
[21:48] <Guest86075> sudo apt-get install sun-java-6 = E = dpkg was interrupted , you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a to correct the probleme????
[21:48] <cordoval_> it is listed
[21:48] <cordoval_> now
[21:48] <escott> cordoval_, maybe you don't have permissions to modify the test folder
[21:48] <cordoval_> /dev/sdb1 on /mnt/test type vfat (rw)
[21:48] <afman> Does Ubuntu not support SSDs? I've put three SSD's total in this computer. Two different manufacturers and two different sizes. On each of them Ubuntu 10.10 suffers from the same style of frequent crashes, lock ups, failure to boot, write errors, etc. I mean the problems are identical. Driving me absolutely insane O.o
[21:48] <escott> cordoval_, sudo chown username:username /mnt/test
[21:48] <cordoval_> how do I do to mount it automatically any usb
[21:48] <cordoval_> ok
[21:48] <Mac_Weber> is there any package to install Google Closure Compiler?
[21:48] <jibadeeha> nvardar, you are right it doesn't work ... i must have been doing a select all on the playlist and dragging them across to the device .. sorry for the confusion
[21:49] <escott> cordoval_, unclear why automount isn't happening. it should be happening
[21:49] <ZykoticK9> escott, you can't apply linux/unix permissions to a FAT/NTFS partition
[21:49] <usr13> cordoval_: Usb drives should automatically mount for you.
[21:49] <MK``> Do I need to dismount an ext4 partition to extend it?
[21:49] <cordoval_> I am not allowed to do sudo chown
[21:49] <escott> ZykoticK9, yes but he still needs them to modify the mountpoint
[21:49] <Squall5668> cordoval: check if your user is set to access external devices automatically
[21:49] <usr13> cordoval_: Do you want to try and re-format this device?
[21:50] <escott> cordoval_, you can't sudo?
[21:50] <cordoval_> I already reformatted
[21:50] <ZykoticK9> escott, i think it's in the mounting process the change(s) need to be made
[21:50] <cordoval_> it is in vfat
[21:50] <cordoval_> so  cordoval: check if your user is set to access external devices automatically
[21:50] <cordoval_> how do I provide access to external devices
[21:50] <escott> ZykoticK9, the owner mount option yes
[21:50] <cordoval_> auto
[21:50] <usr13> cordoval_: pastebinit /etc/group
[21:51] <Squall5668> cordoval: System>Administration>Users and Groups iirc
[21:51] <escott> ZykoticK9, but earlier he was saying he couldn't mount at all. sounds like he isn't wheel and isn't configured to be in the automount group
[21:51] <Guest86075> Hi, I would like to Install a JAVA(JRE) and Eclipse, how I can do this? plz??

[21:51] <whit> Does anyone have suggest for a good packaging tutorial for making debians? (I've googled but  could use some pointers in the right direction)
[21:51] <escott> cordoval_, what does groups say?
[21:51] <ZykoticK9> escott, i don't use windows partitions for stuff, so i really don't know...
[21:52] <cordoval_> should i do advanced editing?
[21:52] <escott> ZykoticK9, its true that vfat doesn't have permissions so linux just pretends that all the files are owned by the user who did the mounting, which is almost invariable root
[21:52] <cordoval_> yanet is user
[21:52] <cordoval_> is the only user
[21:53] <ZykoticK9> escott, sounds plausible to me?!?
[21:53] <cordoval_> oh just give permission
[21:53] <cordoval_> let's see
[21:53] <escott> cordoval_, the list of users on your system is not important. we need to know what groups yanet is permissioned for
[21:53] <usr13> cordoval_: ok only user is yanet and that is the user you are logged in as.  Right?
[21:53] <cordoval_> right
[21:53] <escott> yanet needs to be added to plugdev (i think)
[21:53] <usr13> escott: He just showed us

My windows xp laptop and windows 7 laptop share at the speed of 1.5 - 2 MB/s. Why would this be? can the low speed for my ubuntu laptop share be improved?
[21:55] <cordoval_> ok
[21:56] <escott> cordoval_, the drive should be mounting as USBDRIVE1 or some such generated name

[21:57] <conical> how do you run an application such that you can detach it before you log out
[21:57] <usr13> J697: You already said that.
[21:57] <conical> and re-attach (i'm ssh -X ing into my machine)
[21:57] <J697> usr13, I got no response :\
[21:57]  * murphy ÿ ñíîâà òóò!.

[21:57] <conical> escott, I was trying screen, but when i run it with google-chrome
[21:58] <escott> conical, not going to work with X applications
[21:58] <escott> conical, you would have to install a vnc
[21:58] <conical> how do I make it work with X applications?
[21:58] <escott> conical, rewrite X
[21:58] <conical> but if I'm running a VNC, then I'm logged into a full view of my desktop
[21:59] <escott> conical, sorry most X applications do not take kindly to X disappearing on them
[21:59] <dajhorn> conical: screen for X11 programs is called `xpri`.
[21:59] <b4> you don't need X, just run terminal
[21:59] <b4> ;)
[21:59] <dajhorn> conical:   apt-get install xpra
[21:59] <POOPHAMMER> is there a reason my ubuntu boots into a tty1 rather than the desktop?

[22:01] <conical> what's the best way to log out of an ssh -x session?
[22:01] <POOPHAMMER> just use the command startx?
[22:02] <Squall5668> poophammer try ctrl+alt+f7, see what's there

[22:02] <conical> Control-D doesn't work
[22:02] <cordoval_> installing
[22:02] <conical> only control-C does
[22:02] <DexterF> POOPHAMMER: checked the logs?

[22:02] <J697> usr13, yes ut is

[22:02] <escott> conical, exit
[22:02] <conical> the problem is, I don't have a command prompt
[22:03] <escott> conical, everything will just die but
[22:03] <J697> usr13, I do but my sisters use the internet all the time, so there is absolutely no way to fix it?
[22:03] <POOPHAMMER> uh well
[22:03] <usr13> J697: What is the make and model of the laptop?
[22:04] <POOPHAMMER> its checking the baterry
[22:04] <escott> conical, how did you start the session
[22:04] <Guest86075> DPKG was interrupted..?? what dose it mean??
[22:04] <J697> usr13, Dell and honestly I don't really know how old etc it is
[22:04] <escott> conical, exit the application that started your session and the session should end
[22:04] <POOPHAMMER> i wish there was a was i could copy those logs
[22:04] <zvacet> Guest86075: any recommended command?
[22:05] <J697> usr13, Inspiron 1525 also
[22:05] <hiexpo> POOPHAMMER, those logs are stored
[22:05] <zvacet> Guest86075: did you see any command you should run in that message
[22:05] <POOPHAMMER> so what can i find out with them?
[22:05] <Guest86075> zvacet: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin
[22:05] <cordoval_> oh no, I restarted and back to base 1
[22:06] <cordoval_> same usb problem
[22:06] <KM0201> J697, what are you trying to do w/ the old dell?
[22:06] <cordoval_> rats!
[22:06] <cordoval_> how can I automate it?

[22:06] <POOPHAMMER> i just want my damn desktop
[22:07] <zvacet> Guest86075: can you run command again and paste output here with http://goo.gl/ixcN9
[22:07] <escott> cordoval_, first check with `groups`
[22:07] <Macer> jdberkeley: free is showing 3.2?
[22:07] <Squall5668> jdberkley: you installed x86
[22:07] <J697> KM0201, just make it wireless usable for my little sisters
[22:07] <Macer> sounds like you are running a non 64 version
[22:07] <Guest86075> zvacet: damn I hate myself ---' juste have to do: sudo dpkg --configure -a

My windows xp laptop and windows 7 laptop share at the speed of 1.5 - 2 MB/s. Why would this be? can the low speed for my ubuntu laptop share be improved?
[22:07] <Macer> the extra ram over 3GB usually gets mapped to devices

[22:07] <xbskid> In Unity, how do I access things like preferences and the package updater?
[22:07] <KM0201> J697, i imagine a machine that old, wireless should probably be easy.. i'm guessing its a broadcom.. have you figured out what device it is yet, or have you got that far

[22:09] <KM0201> usr13, just clicked it, looking now.
[22:10] <Squall5668> cordoval: did you tick "Access external devices automatically"?
[22:10] <usr13> KM0201: Worth a try I guess...
[22:10] <joshmc> Okay, I missed the exceedingly obvious for marking every monday as trash day, but I'm still stuck on alternating the second event for every other day. I tried "REM Jan 10 2011 Mon *2 MSG Trash (greenwaste)" which outputs on the right monday... and every 2 days after it each time. Anyone have good remind chops that can point me in the right direction?
[22:10] <escott> cordoval_, it would list plugdev in the output of `groups` if a member of plugdev. i need to run be back in a couple hours sorry
[22:10]  * Acid190 is not a mint fan
[22:10] <jdberkeley> So why is ubuntu AMD64 reporting a TOTAL memory of 3.2GB guys?
[22:10] <KM0201> usr13, indeed.. not really sure what its gonna do differently, but you're right, worth a try.. so long as he has an internet connection that isn't wireless
[22:11] <usr13> Yea, he's connected so he could try it.
[22:11] <Macer> jdberkeley: maybe a bios issue in the way it is mapping memory.. maybe a bed dimm that is reporting the wrong size or is damaged...
[22:11] <Macer> do other operating systems report the total correctly?
[22:11] <KM0201> usr13, the crappy thing is.. there's a lp-phy firmware in the ubuntu repositoris, but it always fails when you try to install it.
[22:11] <jdberkeley> Macer: bios reports 4GB and my board (D945GNT) supports 4GB!
[22:11] <thien> guntbert: i found a solution. it should be opened in new tab. be happy. :)
[22:12] <Macer> jdberkeley: i get that but have you tried booting any other os on the system and seeing how much is being reported?
[22:12] <itaylor57> jdberkeley: it could be ram being used by video card
[22:12] <SoulRaven>  whay when a try to create a table using xtables i get this error iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.
[22:12] <SoulRaven>  the table is this: iptables -A INPUT -j ACCOUNT --addr 10.119.219.0/24 --tname VPN_1
[22:13] <Macer> the amount suggests that maybe you are either running an x86 kernel or for some reason your board (while showing it has 4GB) is mapping the memory wrong
[22:13] <bonny> can i change the log in screen background
[22:13] <jdberkeley> itaylor57: I have a video card that 1GB of discrete memory!
[22:13] <Macer> giving up some of that 4GB to map for devices
[22:13] <Macer> my suggestion would be to boot a livecd or something like fbsd for amd64 and see what it reports
[22:13] <Guest86075> If I only want install something I allredy download, the command is: sudo install (name) ?
[22:13] <cordoval_> what was that fixed this?
[22:14] <Macer> if it too reports the wrong amount of ram then it is not mapping correctly or you have a damaged dimm
[22:14] <jdberkeley> ok guys, thanks
[22:14] <cordoval_> the permissions? on mnt test?
[22:14] <Squall5668> Guest86075: dpkg install

[22:14] <cordoval_> rats!

[22:18] <Squall5668> cordoval: so it's just not automounted, did you do as i said before?
[22:19] <cordoval_> what did you say?
[22:19] <cordoval_> Squall5668
[22:19] <usr13> J697: It's a switch or keystoke combination on the laptop.  You just have to look for it.

[22:21] <cordoval_> what then could it be?
[22:21] <cordoval_> how to make it sure
[22:21] <almoxarife> J697: my bad, thought you said you changed drivers
[22:21] <cordoval_> rats, this problem is tricky

[22:24] <J697> aroni125, menu? You mean setup screen?
[22:24] <cordoval_> anyone that is a monster in ubuntu can help?

[22:25] <Squall5668> cordoval try apt-get install usbmount
[22:25] <cordoval_> but it does not work else
[22:25] <cordoval_> I think I had it
[22:25] <J697> aroni125, "Wireless is disabled"
[22:25] <cordoval_> yes I had it
[22:25] <cordoval_> Squall
[22:26] <usr13> J697: iwconfig | pastebinit
[22:26] <cordoval_> rats and cats!
[22:26] <aroni125> J697: And "Enable Wireless" is checked?
[22:26] <cordoval_> this is amazing
[22:26] <cordoval_> should I make yanet sudo group?
[22:26] <J697> aroni125, where exactly is this a checkable option?
[22:26] <cordoval_> perhaps that works
[22:27] <KM0201> J697, usually you can find that option by right clicking the networking applet.
[22:27] <aroni125> J697: Click on the icon, it should be near "Enable Networking" if your wireless driver is running.
[22:28] <cordoval_> I have less permissions on my other laptop and it works
[22:28] <J697> aroni125, yes that is already checked
[22:28] <cordoval_> Squall
[22:28] <cordoval_> what is FUSE?
[22:28] <cordoval_> is perhaps what is intefering
[22:28] <_Neytiri_> i got a question, where cani get the source for the bash shell so i cam rewrite it to disable the users ability to turn off the history
[22:28] <KM0201> J697, which driver did you install and attempt to get to work?
[22:28] <J697> usr13, http://pastebin.com/bnEReuX1
[22:29] <J697> KM0201, the B43 Wireless Driver (which worked last time when I was using Linux Mint)
[22:29] <Squall5668> cordoval: http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/fuse-utils
[22:29] <cordoval_> Squall yes but it does not solve the problem
[22:29] <KM0201> J697, did you try modprobing the driver?
[22:29] <Squall5668> i told, you, i can't help
[22:29] <J697> KM0201, I'm sorry but, what? How can I do this?
[22:29] <KM0201> J697, hang on
[22:29] <cordoval_> Squall5668:
[22:30] <proti> _Neytiri_: What's the point ? bash is running as user (x) so can it create file only as user (x) there's nothing you can do to prevent one's to erase its history.
[22:30] <dan__> exit
[22:30] <KM0201> J697, copy paste these two commands one at a time in the terminal... http://pastebin.com/chRLy3Ws
[22:30] <cordoval_> Squall: maybe it is not on the fstab
[22:31] <cordoval_> or something
[22:31] <KM0201> J697, then afterwards, wait about 10-15sec, and see if your wireless opens.
[22:31] <_Neytiri_> proti, i need to make it so they cant turn off the logging of commands, i have a cron that is getting the history every minute during a certin time of the way
[22:31] <cordoval_> on the queued folders to mount or devices
[22:31] <cordoval_> Squall
[22:31] <cordoval_> how can i add them
[22:31] <Ameth> What is the best Tv Tunner for Ubuntu that can record and play tv at the same time?
[22:31] <Squall5668> cordoval maybe, see if fstab has auto on the usb line
[22:31] <KM0201> !hardware | Ameth
[22:32] <cordoval_> it is just
[22:32] <J697> KM0201, for both I got the same result "FATAL: Module wl not found." sounds bad :(
[22:32] <cordoval_> /dev/sdb1 /   ext4   errors=remountro 0  1
[22:32] <aroni125> J697: That will load the "wl" driver. That's actually what I am using at this moment.
[22:32] <cordoval_> Squall
[22:32] <cordoval_> what it should be?
[22:33] <cordoval_> Squall5668: what do you think /dev/sdb1 / ext4 errors=remountro 0 1
[22:33] <_Neytiri_> and proti i also wnat to rewrite it to make a copy of hte .history file in another location where the user cant access it
[22:33] <aroni125> J697: That means you lack the driver... Do you have a folder in /usr/src that starts with "bcmwl"?
[22:33] <KM0201> J697, yeah, somethin isn't right... you don't have the driver.
[22:34] <cordoval_> Squall5668: should I edit the file, where do I add the auto?
[22:34] <abountu> how can I change my desktop name with ubuntu?
[22:34] <J697> aroni125, nope only linux-headers-2.6.35-2X folders
[22:34] <aroni125> Okay. There's a package with the source to the "wl" driver.
[22:35] <J697> aroni125, by any chance do you know the name of this package?
[22:35] <dd214> abountu you want to change your machine's name?
[22:35] <aroni125> J697: I had to look it up. It's "bcmwl-kernel-source"
[22:35] <BernardV> _Neytiri_: The .bash_history says nothing.. try to log in, execute some commands and then type "kill -9 $$"
[22:35] <BernardV> Bash will exit and nothing is logged
[22:36] <abountu> dd214, yes, I gave both my desktop and laptop the same name, and now I can't connect from one to the other
[22:36] <dd214> abountu bang this out in the terminal
[22:36] <dd214> abountu gksudo gedit /etc/hostname
[22:37] <J697> aroni125, now what after it finishes the command?
[22:37] <xguru> anyone know how to create a symbolic link so firefox can use the jre java plugin?
[22:37] <aroni125> J697: After the package is installed, go into the folder it creates, which starts with "bcmwl".
[22:37] <cybrhuman> xguru: you sure your problem isn't that you have icedtea
[22:38] <J697> aroni125, ok, there now
[22:38] <stuart> Hi there, I am completely new to updating kernals etc and I am trying to install this patch https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=41942
[22:38] <abountu> dd214: done, do I need to run something else for it to take effect?
[22:38] <cybrhuman> xguru: you sure your problem isn't that you have icedtea installed?
[22:38] <aroni125> J697: After that, "sudo make".
[22:38] <stuart> could someone instruct me on how to patch the kernal with this patch?
[22:38] <xguru> cybrhuman:  i just installed JDK and i guess JRE is included but i have to set a symbolic link so firefox knows where to look for the plugin?
[22:39] <J697> aroni125, I got a fatal error :o about missing a file "linux/autoconf.h"
[22:39] <hiexpo> xguru, no you need to install javajre
[22:39] <cybrhuman> xguru: ok, that isn't hard that either, but I have never needed symlinks for java.
[22:39] <dd214> abountu, type this to see if your changes worked.... uname -n
[22:39] <cybrhuman> xguru: from where to where you need to symlink?
[22:40] <BernardV> _Neytiri_: Why do you want to log? Do you not trust your shell users? If so, just put them in a jail with only commands they can/may use..
[22:40] <abountu> dd214:no, it's still the old name
[22:40] <trism> stuart: in the source directory: patch -p1 < /path/to/patch_file
[22:40] <abountu>  dd214 which is different from cat /etc/hostname
[22:40] <Guest9854> hello
[22:40] <xguru> cybrhuman:  i know how to create the link.....but i'm trying to do in in /home/*/.mozilla/plugins  and link that to ~/jdk*/jre/plugin/i386
[22:41] <xguru> but in the dir there is two plugin options
[22:41] <abountu>  dd214 I'd expect to run something to get the network to refresh..no?
[22:41] <J697> aroni125, hello?
[22:41] <Guest94906> Just wondering how plausible it is to create a startup USB stick, boot a laptop to it, and use the USB stick (running 10.10) to scan for spyware/malware? Basically, is there any good spyware/malware removal tools availible for linux?
[22:41] <zykes-> anyone got a hint on why hdX is detected as sdX ?
[22:41] <aroni125> J697: I'm not sure how to get past the autoconf.h problem. It's something I didn't encounter.
[22:41] <hiexpo> Guest94906, ubuntumini
[22:42] <Darael> Got an irritating problem with my wifi.  For about the last 24 hours, I've been able to connect but after about five minutes it starts dropping all packets until I disconnect and reconnect.  Running a flood ping through the cycle gives (eventually) the repeating pattern "..E..............E...".  Have tried reloading kernel module for the card and restarting network-mananger - neither helped.  Ditto multiple reboots. Was thought to be RF interference, ...
[22:42] <Darael> ... but changing channels (6->13) made no difference.
[22:42] <_Neytiri_> BernardV, i dont trust them but there students in a lunux class so i cant lock down the commands to much
[22:42] <ZykoticK9> zykes-, linux kernel moved to scsi-emulation for HDs quite a while ago
[22:42] <J697> Well, ok then still thanks for your help
[22:42] <dd214> abountu  one more thing.. you will need to update your host file too
[22:42] <alesan> hi how do I install the REAL java (SUN) on ubuntu?
[22:42] <xguru> cybrhuman:  /i386 has ns7 and ns7-gcc29.  I actually created the link to both and neither works....  do i have to do it in the firefox plugin folder?
[22:42] <dd214> abountu gksudo gedit /etc/hosts
[22:42] <abountu> ok
[22:42] <alesan> !java
[22:43] <zykes-> ZykoticK9: any ways to force it to detect as old style?
[22:43] <BernardV> _Neytiri_: Well maybe you should still consider a jail option. If set up correctly a user can "hurt" a jail, but not the system..
[22:43] <boritek> hi
[22:43] <JoeOhms> .
[22:43] <abountu> dd214: ok I edited /etc/hosts. and changed the line 127.0.0.1 from old to new hostname, anything else I need to do with that file?
[22:44] <BernardV> _Neytiri_: Or compile your own bash and create realtime add realtime logging as far as I know it's a compile time option.
[22:44] <boritek> how can i login in GDM with pamusb so that it mounts correctly the encrypted home. (my password changed after the initial password)
[22:44] <boritek> ?
[22:44] <ZykoticK9> zykes-, not that i'm aware of - but certainly i'm far from sure on that (though I'm not sure why you'd want too)
[22:44] <dd214> abountu save both the hostname and hosts file correct?
[22:44] <cybrhuman> xguru: but I can't understand why you would have to make the links yourself, I have never done that to use java plugins...
[22:44] <BernardV> _Neytiri_: But for the last to work you hope they don't start "sh" or another (custom) shell
[22:44] <proti> _Neytiri_: There's some stuff for doing this.
[22:45] <proti> Search for audit bash
[22:45] <xguru> cybrhuman: i have to manually do it cause i pulled the tar file from oracle instad of installing with apt-get
[22:45] <hiexpo> alesan, open synaptic and type jre  or sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[22:45] <xguru> cybrhuman:  thanks for the help....  I'll gOoGlE some more
[22:45] <cybrhuman> xguru: then it seems more logical.
[22:46] <abountu> dd214: just confirm that all I need to do is basically change the 127.0.0.1 from old to new? if that's all than yes it's done, and still uname -n gives the old name
[22:46] <Pici> !hostname | abountu
[22:46] <dd214> abountu, if you've saved both, you'll need to reboot and your set.  once your back online run uname -n to verify the hostname is the new one.
[22:46] <BernardV> proti: basha looks promissing for _Neytiri_ but does it still work if you start another shell?
[22:47] <hiexpo> xguru, sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[22:47] <abountu> dd214: ok thanks
[22:47] <xguru> hiexpo:  that would actually be "yum install sun-java6-jre :)
[22:47] <dd214> abountu, you are correct, the hosts file is critical, 127.0.X.X or you'll lose the ability to sudo
[22:48] <hiexpo> xguru, why you using differant distro ?
[22:48] <proti> BernardV: Indeed, I had the very same problem a few months ago.
[22:48] <proti> But nothing came up easely.
[22:48] <_Neytiri_> i done know on that but i can always disable the other shells
[22:49] <xguru> hiexpo: well this issue isn't distro specific.  The main reason is the ubuntu community has excellent support.  I figured it would be a command line fix..   not a "Ubuntu fix"  with apt-get :)
[22:49] <BernardV> _Neytiri_: That's not entirely true. If the user has "upload" rights, he/she can still upload their own shell.
[22:49] <shomon> hi, I have a sony handycam and I'd like to try and capture some of this and turn it into a dvd
[22:49] <xguru> thanks again guys
[22:50] <ayrton> guys i installed a native linux game amnesia , it installed and plays but gameplay is upside down
[22:50] <ayrton> and double vision
[22:50] <rklapp> what you do in your bedroom is your own business
[22:50] <proti> _Neytiri_: have a look at snoopy logger.
[22:50] <rklapp> 8^)
[22:50] <cybrhuman> xguru: I might have found what you need, if you didn't already find it yourself.
[22:50] <Guest94906> hiexpo: I'm not sure you understood my question...I want something that I can install on a USB so I can scan other people's infested computers and remove spyware/malware. Something like malware bytes or spybot search and destroy, but for linux...
[22:50] <xguru> cybrhuman:   i'm still looking....   what do you have?
[22:51] <cybrhuman> xguru: http://en.kioskea.net/faq/853-installation-of-firefox-2-0-java-flash
[22:51] <BernardV> proti: Thanks for the heads up on basha.. I run a simple server and some shell access accounts for friends/collegues. Would be nice to have logging if something goes bad.
[22:51] <cybrhuman> xguru: search for java installation
[22:52] <cybrhuman> xguru: unless it was intentional that you wanted it in your $HOME
[22:52] <test1234> Hi, i used unrar-free to extract a video file that i downloaded but all i get is an empty folder when im done extracting. Any ideas on why?
[22:52] <kbrosnan> cybrhuman: that is so out of date it is not even funny
[22:52] <hiexpo> xguru, yes but very disrespectful towards ubuntu community > you using another distro but wanting the help of ubuntu people and why not ask in the distros channel   > you choose that distro so use it and it's  support
[22:52] <cybrhuman> kbrosnan: yes, I see it is out of date, but I imagine it is still kinda close
[22:53] <kbrosnan> cybrhuman: not even close
[22:53] <jpk> Hi all.  I recently changed swap partitions, and I'm having trouble getting hibernation to work again.  (Hardware changes that included more RAM meant my old one was too small to hibernate to.)  After changing to the larger swap partition, I can hibernate, but resume fails and it goes on with a normal boot.  I get roughly this on the console while booting: "swapon: /dev/sdb4: software suspend data detected. Rewriting the swap signature. / Invalidating stale
[22:53] <cybrhuman> kbrosnan: ok :(
[22:53] <cordoval_> when is 11 ubuntu going to go out of beta?
[22:53] <cybrhuman> xguru: sry, my assumptions were wrong. :(
[22:54] <KM0201> cordoval_, 28th is the release date.
[22:54] <hiexpo> cordoval_, 2 days
[22:54] <cordoval_> oh then i shall just install it
[22:54] <KM0201> ..
[22:54] <shomon> how can I get info on getting ubuntu 10 to read my sony dv camera?
[22:55] <cordoval_> rather installing now than later
[22:55] <xguru> cybrhuman:  actually it worked...the symbolic link still operates the same.  example:  ln -sfv /usr/local/jre1.6.0/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so /home/corey/.mozilla/plugins
[22:55] <en1gma> im running 10.10 32bit and i got a USB BT Adapter "Bus 004 Device 002: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode)" and its not working....anyone help on it?
[22:55] <cordoval_> will beta become normal when after installation and former release?
[22:55] <cordoval_> i mean will it just keep upgrading?
[22:55] <Squall5668> cordoval_ yes
[22:55] <kbrosnan> xguru: that plugin is invalid for recent versions of firefox, 3.5+
[22:55] <cordoval_> or should we wait for another?
[22:56] <cordoval_> ph ok
[22:56] <kbrosnan> xguru: needs to be libnpjp2.so
[22:56] <hiexpo> xguru, this is ubuntu support we do not support yum repository distros here so please refer to your distro support channel for any other support   >   thank you
[22:56] <xguru> kbrosnan....   yea your right.  That example was from the site...   of course the path and file would be current...
[22:56] <xguru> more like....
[22:57] <cordoval_> I take it to accept printers if usb is working now
[22:58] <xguru> kbrosnan:  example:  ln -sfv /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_25/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so /home/corey/.mozilla/plugins
[22:58] <hiexpo> kbrosnan, he is not even using ubuntu
[22:58] <rklapp> Could someone walk me through fixing my nvidia driver? I have a 560ti. I tried the nvidia-xconfig and xorg.conf backup.
[22:58] <rklapp> TIA
[22:58] <xguru> hiexpo:  thanks we are aware...  I gave ubuntu its props.  I use ubuntu as well..  I have friends and help people here.  I'm asking a linux question....really my distro disclosure wasn't needed.   So shut up..  please :)
[22:59] <Koolio> :D
[22:59] <shomon> is there a channel anywhere to get help with dv on linux?
[23:00] <Koolio> shomon: get a mac ;-)
[23:00] <Pici> Koolio: Thats not helpful
[23:01] <shomon> I would get a mac if someone cut off all my fingers but one. then I could properly use their mouse
[23:01] <dd214> Once I've added an Alias to .bashrc, what command is ran to apply changes?
[23:01]  * X3S Back! (Waiting for Ubuntu 11.04 >.< )

[23:02] <Guest8258> shomon: what is wrong with multitouch multibutton gesture mouse (bluetooth) ?
[23:03] <dd214> cybrhuman  ... got it, thnx
[23:03]  * murphy|away ñêîðî áóäó: Gone away for now
[23:03] <Guest8258> shomon: you probably mean a mac mouse from 90ties

[23:03] <actionparsnip> murphy: please don't away like that in future
[23:04] <Loshki> shomon: there's #linuxtv and #v4l, ##video, but you might as well start here...
[23:05] <shomon> thanks Loshki
[23:06] <shomon> well, lsusb says "Bus 005 Device 004: ID 054c:00c0 Sony Corp. Handycam DCR-30"
[23:06] <shomon> but where to go from there I'm not sure
[23:06] <Alex-Musicman> somebody know how to convert avi to mkv using ffmpeg?
[23:06] <Squall5668> shomon: whats the problem?
[23:06] <Guest8258> ok good night 

[23:08] <plouffe> what is better, ASUS or Acer?
[23:08] <actionparsnip> plouffe: that is offtopic here
[23:08] <actionparsnip> plouffe: and there is no single best solution for any situation
[23:08] <plouffe> I heard Acers overheat a lot
[23:09] <actionparsnip> plouffe: ask in ##hardware
[23:09] <Guest18> Acers do overheat, but HP's are defective lol
[23:09] <Squall5668> don't start that here ppl
[23:09] <Guest18> but realistically.... don't all machines overheat when not taken care of?
[23:09] <bastidrazor> how do i call a tcp connection?
[23:09] <ninjafish> but dells smell so funny /s

[23:10] <bastidrazor> tcp        0 244188 192.168.0.101:49200     192.168.0.105:13902     ESTABLISHED 2019/ushare  ::is what i want to kill
[23:10] <Alex-Musicman> actionparsnip: the files have broken links..
[23:11] <ninjafish> bastidrazor: I imagine if you google "how to open a tcp socket in python" in google it would give you an example
[23:11] <actionparsnip> Alex-Musicman: could join the forum and ask for the code
[23:11] <cybrhuman> what tools I need to format a disk to ntfs?
[23:12] <shomon> bastidrazor: "sudo ufw deny from IPADDRESS to any port PORT"
[23:12] <actionparsnip> Alex-Musicman: isn't the command just:   mencoder file.avi -ovc -oac -o output.mkv
[23:13] <ninjafish> bastidrazor: oh wait this isnt the python channel, my bad
[23:13] <shomon> where ip and port are the ones you want to block, in this case 105 I think, unless that's yours
[23:13] <actionparsnip> !info mkvtoolnix-gui
[23:13] <Loshki> bastidrazor: you must find the process associated with the tcp connection and kill the process. Try running "lsof -i4tcp' and see if you can spot it.
[23:13] <actionparsnip> Alex-Musicman: or install mkvtoolnix-gui
[23:13] <bastidrazor> Loshki: ah, just killing the process will stop the connection. i see that has killed the connection
[23:14] <Loshki> Alex-Musicman: most people convert in the other direction i.e. mkv to avi. Are you sure you need to do the reverse?
[23:15] <ThomasB2k> If I download and install the Ubuntu 11.04 beta, will it be rolled into the stable version when it releases in a few days?

[23:15] <ThomasB2k> Thank you ZykoticK9
[23:16] <actionparsnip> ThomasB2k: ask in #ubuntu+1
[23:16] <matrixa1> ThomasB2k, i have the beta, and yes, the updates are rolled out on the fly
[23:16] <Tank997> Hi all, I'm looking to build a new PC with 11.4 and want to know if someone can point me to the best componants to take advantage of the OS without over kill, simple ? right :)
[23:17] <Squall5668> !hardware | Tank997
[23:17] <matrixa1> ThomasB2k, just make sure to check the topic in #ubuntu+1 because some updates break things before stable is rolled out
[23:17] <Tank997> Yes hardware
[23:17] <Loshki> ThomasB2k: note also that 'stable' is a relative term. If stability is a prime concern, run an LTS...
[23:17] <asdffd> hi
[23:17] <asdffd> 10.10 or 11.04
[23:18] <actionparsnip> !hcl | Tank997
[23:18] <Tank997> Looking now Ubottu thanks!
[23:18] <Squall5668> asdffd: what exactly is the question?
[23:18] <asdffd> what to use
[23:18] <asdffd> for me
[23:19] <asdffd> hate unityy
[23:19] <asdffd> and gnome 3
[23:19] <Squall5668> asdffd: well, once 11.04 rolls out use that, it has "ubuntu classic" at login to use gnome 2
[23:19] <actionparsnip> asdffd: maverick will give you fewer issues, natty wil be supported longer but will have more issues in its early months
[23:19] <shomon> go for 10.10 I think, unless you are a pro and want to check out something just out...
[23:19] <actionparsnip> asdffd: you can use traditional desktop in natty,
[23:19] <shomon> yes exactly ;)
[23:20] <asdffd> oh
[23:20] <actionparsnip> asdffd: gnome3 isnt in natty
[23:20] <actionparsnip> by default
[23:20] <Tank997> The wiki looks like machines right?
[23:20] <asdffd> people
[23:20] <asdffd> i
[23:20] <asdffd> know
[23:21] <asdffd> do you think
[23:21] <asdffd> 10.10 is bes
[23:21] <asdffd> t
[23:21] <actionparsnip> asdffd: best is subjective
[23:21] <asdffd> even 11.04 is released
[23:21] <asdffd> i want stavle
[23:21] <actionparsnip> asdffd: natty is not released
[23:21] <asdffd> yes
[23:21] <Squall5668> as action said, best is subjective, if you want stable use 10.04
[23:22] <Tank997> Was looking more for Mb's and other componates
[23:22] <asdffd> yes i want stable
[23:22] <actionparsnip> asdffd: then use maverick
[23:22] <asdffd> do i need a new harddrive

[23:23] <psy___> hello everyone. I hate to assume, but I'm hoping someone here can put me in the right direction. My Grub2 menu lists 4 linux kernels. 2 of these are pretty old (linux-image-2.6.32.x), and I want to remove them. However, everything I've seen so far says to either remove the kernels via synaptic or by using Ubuntu Tweak. The problem is that these kernels don't show up in either program.
[23:23] <asdffd> no i meant
[23:23] <asdffd> do  i need new hard disk
[23:24] <asdffd> i have got 5400rpms
[23:24] <cybrhuman> psy___: grub-update or something like that
[23:24] <asdffd> maaybe its to less
[23:24] <actionparsnip> psy___: remove the kernels in software centre and it will remove them, you don't need any stupid 3rd party tools
[23:24] <Squall5668> psy__ grub-update
[23:24] <asdffd> a
[23:24] <actionparsnip> psy___: if you run:  dpkg -l | grep linux-image-2   do you see them?
[23:24] <bastidrazor> asdffd: are you trolling?
[23:25] <rklapp> Could someone walk me through fixing my nvidia driver? I have a 560ti. I tried the nvidia-xconfig and xorg.conf backup.

[23:25] <psy___> running the dpkg command, they don't show up

[23:26] <Squall5668> asdffd you don't for normal uses, 5400 is fine

[23:27] <kesor> how do i fix that?

[23:28] <sec_goat> How can i copy all files from 1 samba share on 1 server to another share on a different server?
[23:28] <actionparsnip> i suck
[23:28] <actionparsnip> sec_goat: open both shares and copy and paste as you expect
[23:29] <kesor> actionparsnip : i got only "usermod: no changes" and still the error
[23:29] <psy___> so to recap, dpkg -l | grep linux-image-2 will show the *.35.* kernels only, but using update-grub still lists the .35 kernels as well as the older *.32.* kernels (and the memtest loader and the win7 booter).  the ubuntu software center, ubuntu tweak and synaptic all only show the *.35.* kernels. In fact, I don't see any references to the .32. kernels anywhere but the dang grub2 menu lol
[23:29] <actionparsnip> kesor: ok, run:  groups    are you in the group?
[23:30] <kesor> actionparsnip : kristoffer adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare
[23:30] <actionparsnip> psy___: did you make any changes with any app to remove them somehow else?
[23:31] <Squall5668> psy__ did you try searching for linux-headers too?
[23:31] <psy___> i overwrote my / partition (well, all of them but /home) a while back. i installed over an older version of ubuntu after some program helped me remove myself from the sudo group and i couldn't get back in >.<
[23:31] <actionparsnip> kesor: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-linux-add-user-to-group/
[23:32] <sec_goat> actionparsnip: I tried that and it told me somethign like access denied
[23:32] <psy___> looking for linux-headers also only shows headers for the newer kernels
[23:32] <bastidrazor> kesor: sudo adduser kristoffer video   :that will add you to the video group, if your username is 'kristoffer'
[23:32] <sec_goat> actionparsnip: let me try again
[23:33] <psy___> i suppose its not doing any harm, but its just irritating that its there and I can't figure it out heh
[23:33] <actionparsnip> sec_goat: or jump onto the source server via ssh or vnc etc then open the share of the other server and copy over
[23:33] <hiexpo> hola actionparsnip
[23:33] <kesor> bastidrazor: the command worked but i am still getting the same error

[23:35] <JDuke128> hi , i want to write something to LPT port , how can i write some integer to LPT ? i ll just open some leds

[23:36] <Tank997> tank again just one last question, looking at the hardware lists I don't see the sandy bridge chips or P67 boards listed does that mean they are to new or not supported?

[23:37] <bastidrazor> kesor: it is odd for a linux box to need restarting for anything other than a new kernel. you could try logging out then back it.

[23:39] <psy___> would it be possible to force an install of the two older kernels (2.6.32-22 and 2.6.32-25) and then remove them again? how does one go about that? i don't even see them available for install in any of the package mangers
[23:39] <Squall5668> ninjafish really? funny

[23:40] <ninjafish> Squall5668: Yea, just unplugging and plugging back in worked. Its probably because I boot into windows 1-3 times a week and never do an actual shutdown or unplug my mouse.

[23:41] <ZykoticK9> op_amp, if it's on a FAT/NTFS partition the chmod won't work.  You could use "sh ./script.sh"

[23:43] <Keshl> The Wubi installer refuses to install the Kubuntu ISO into the virtual hard drive after successfully downloading it due to a version mis-match. After investigation, I found that it's downloading a daily build. I asked for help in #kubuntu already and they told me to come here, what should I do to fix this problem?
[23:44] <elijah> actionparsnip: http://typr.in/23j9
[23:44] <psy___> lmfao. i feel so silly now. i moved them to a new folder, ran update-grub and it's fine now. thanks a lot for the assistance heh
[23:44] <ZykoticK9> op_amp, glad to help
[23:44] <Gnea> Keshl: what are you using to download with?
[23:44] <Keshl> Gnea: Wubi its self.
[23:45] <Gnea> Keshl: what version?
[23:45] <Keshl> Gnea: Revision 190, according to the text I see in Wubi.
[23:45] <Gnea> Keshl: okay, and what version of kubuntu?
[23:45] <Trey> Hello
[23:45] <usr13> !kbuntu | Keshl
[23:46] <usr13> !kubuntu | Keshl
[23:46] <Keshl> Gnea: Since I'm using Wubi, it downloads the latest, which appears to be 10.10.2. It's expecting 10.10.1, though.
[23:46] <Gnea> usr13: content fail on you
[23:46] <Keshl> usr13: Read my post, I said I asked in Kubuntu and they said to come here x.x
[23:46] <elijah> actionparsnip: I set this up via help from another Ubuntu user, he made a script for me that I just run to swap out the .conf files. It works awesome, and I was just trying to add another monitor setup, it shows most of the screen but is off by a 100 pixels and of course leaves out my CRT screen (actually an LCD but uses the VGA cable out on my laptop.
[23:46] <Trey> Can someone help me install themes???
[23:46] <ZykoticK9> Keshl, have you considered doing a "real" install instead of using Wubi?
[23:47] <Squall5668> trey what's the problem?
[23:47] <Keshl> ZykoticK9: That's not an option. Four partitions are already in use, that's why I'm taking this route.
[23:47] <Gnea> Keshl: I see... iirc, wubi will work with a downloaded iso and not rely solely on downloading itself, right?
[23:47] <Trey> Idk, I'm new to Ubuntu, can I download .png images and set them as my theme???
[23:47] <Keshl> Gnea: Yes, but it seems to reject that ISO, too. ANy time I try to give it one (By putting the ISO in the same folder as Wubi), it tries to download it anyway.
[23:47] <usr13> Keshl: Problem is that we know little about kubuntu.  I know they are similar but not the same.  We don't have anything to do with downloads of kubuntu and do not know how to fix such a problem.
[23:47] <Squall5668> trey do you mean desktop backgroud?
[23:47] <Trey> Yea
[23:48] <Gnea> usr13: again, content fail on you.
[23:48] <rww> usr13: Kubuntu is an official derivative of Ubuntu, and is supported in this channel.
[23:48] <usr13> Gnea: What?
[23:48] <ZykoticK9> Keshl, just an FYI if you use an extended partition you can have far more then 4 partitions...  just saying.  Best of luck with Wubi (you might need it)
[23:48] <usr13> rww: Oh, ok
[23:48] <Squall5668> trey: just open any image and right click on it
[23:48] <Keshl> ZykoticK9: But I'd have to erase one partition anyway to make an extended partition, which leaves me with the same problem. Plus, I don't think Grub can boot an extended partition (At least that's what I've been told..)
[23:48] <Gnea> Keshl: is the download ever repeating or resuming?
[23:49] <Keshl> Gnea: It never resumes, and anytime Wubi is ran, it starts over.
[23:49] <Trey> There is no option to set as desktop background
[23:49] <Trey> I'm on Ubuntu
[23:49] <ZykoticK9> Keshl, grub can boot from logical partitions (partitions which are inside an extended)
[23:49] <JDuke128> hi , i want to write something to LPT port , how can i write some integer to LPT ? i ll just open some leds ???????
[23:49] <Gnea> Keshl: okay. btw, linux works fine on a logical partition, it's windows that can't handle non-primary partitions for the main os.
[23:49] <usr13> JDuke128: lpr
[23:50] <Squall5668> did you right click on the file? open it first
[23:50] <Keshl> ZykoticK9/Gnea: Do you mind explaining how to do that, then? Not now obviously, but sometime later? <w<
[23:50] <JDuke128> lpr ?
[23:50] <Gnea> Keshl: sure
[23:50] <JDuke128> usr13 , lpr ? for close and open all leds ?
[23:50] <JDuke128> how ? can you tell full commands
[23:51] <Keshl> Gnea: Thanks in advance. Is there anything else you need to know about Wubi? Should I put the log on Pastebin or something?
[23:51] <Gnea> JDuke128: line printer, try like this:  echo 123 | lpr -
[23:52] <JDuke128> Gnea , to close all leds ? ...
[23:52] <hiexpo> hola Gnea
[23:52] <Pici> JDuke128: I don't think anyone knows what you mean by "close all leds"
[23:52] <Gnea> Keshl: it's honestly been awhile since I used wubi to install (did so on this system) but I could've sworn there was an option in there were you could specify to use an iso in some sort of advanced option or something
[23:52] <Gnea> hiexpo: yo
[23:53] <Gnea> JDuke128: leds are electrical, ubuntu is software. correlation...?
[23:53] <JDuke128> Gnea , i mean activate all pins and close all pins 5V
[23:53] <Squall5668> Oo
[23:54] <otako> is there any way to go straight from wubi to ubuntu?
[23:54] <Gnea> JDuke128: okay, that's a bit more on the technical side of the printer, that's not what we're about... you asked how to send an integer (that is, a number) to the printer to be printed.
[23:54] <Keshl> Gnea: Sorry for the slow reply. Yes, there is, you do so by placing the ISO in the same folder as Wubi before running it. I've done this and it ignores the ISO.
[23:55] <usr13>  otako no.  You just have to install ubuntu
[23:55] <otako> ah
[23:55] <Gnea> Keshl: okay, if you could find a log that references that error and pastebin it, that would rock
[23:55] <Gnea> otako: there is a way, yes

[23:58] <Keshl> Gnea: I have. One heads up though, I'm installing this for someone else, via TightVNC. After a while of messing around with windows and getting sick of it, she asked me for help, we settled down on getting Linux, eventually came to the conclusion that we needed to use Wubi, and here we are. I'm just saying that I might not know *everything* about her system, though it's not hard to make an .nfo. The link to the entire log is http://

[23:59] <Keshl> Gnea: Around line 15 (The second line 15, scroll down and the numbers eventually reset) is where it sees the predownloaded ISO and tries to use it.. Up higher must be where it tried to download by its self.
[23:59] <actionparsnip> QaDeS: not sure, try removing old kernels and use bleachbit to free space
