[00:07] for unicef [00:08] prakas: i'd imagine a good few years - i may be wrong though and it's impossible to predict exactly [00:08] hmm [00:08] Sorry to be a bother but I'm having issues connecting to wifi on ubuntu 10 something with my netgear pci 802.11g wifi card. It shows a wifi symbol up near the clock in the corner with a red ! and has grayed out wired connection thing in the list and doesn't acknowledge wifi there. I can set wifi settings but at no point does it give me the option to connect.

[00:09] question: shouldn't the command "lsmod" and "modprobe -l" give the same output for loaded modules? [00:09] 11.4 come out on 28 apr 2011 right at what time midnight edt ??? [00:09] prakas: yeah, you can use the 'dd' command for that [00:09] yes [00:09] prakas: `man dd` might help you. [00:09] jpk, was thinking that maybe resume was trying to load a stale image from the old swap partition [00:09] hmmm ty [00:09] pindropper it's not hooked up to the internet [00:09] pooltable: Natty is not yet released and there is no predetermined time on the 28th when it will be.

My mount fails, and when I put -vvvvv as a flag, I see that the out put says, "mount.nfs: mount(2): Connection refused [00:10] harrihu: theres your problem then. if the internets not on but your wifi is... strange as it is, at least in my experience, ubuntu refuses to connect [00:10] mount.nfs: trying text-based options 'vers=4,addr=192.168.10.41,clientaddr=192.168.10.80'" before it fails. How do I get it NOT to use nfs4?? [00:11] guys, I couldn't find the answer on ubuntu formus, and I am not trolling. Do you think ok-smelling sandwitches are still ok to eat after staying for a day in room temperature (version - smoked ham, ubuntu 10.10). (I just read the IRC guidelines, they didn't seem to forbid this) [00:11] no no it's not connecting to the router not just the internet [00:11] I'm on a windows machine now [00:11] how long will 10.10 wil have support ???/ [00:11] gedas: We don't troubleshoot sandwiches. :( [00:11] ahh, sorry about that, i'll have to find a more suitable room to ask:( [00:11] gedas: eat the before they eat you [00:12] harrihu: thats what i said, if the routers not connected to the internet, ubuntu sometimes wont connect to your wifi either. [00:12] Does anyone know when 11.4 goes live? It's the 28th in London. [00:12] The router is connected to the internet thats how I'm on [00:12] pooltable: 18 months [00:12] it 28th in Greece too :P [00:12] !party | RandomAndGone [00:12] RandomAndGone: Please remember that #ubuntu, #kubuntu, #xubuntu, and #edubuntu are support channels. To countdown to Natty release and then party once it happens, join #ubuntu-release-party - For in-person parties, see http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/global/744/detail/ [00:12] harrihu: you might also want to try and do "edit connections" and add one in manually and try. [00:13] escott: Ah, I see. I figure it's something like that. I just haven't yet been able to find where/how the thing that resumes finds the stuff in swap to verify that it's looking in the right place. [00:13] harrihu: is your wireless network a hidden one by any chance? try create new wireless, or hidden wireless connection and see if that helps [00:13] There is nothing wrong with the wifi router it's all with the linux machine [00:14] harrihu: read my previous two suggestions [00:14] if there was something wrong with the router I wouldn't be able to connect on this other pc [00:14] thanks for the suggestions pindropper [00:14] looking into it [00:14] i want to change the close botton of chrome to the right [00:14] for help [00:15] i am trying to figure out a way to execute a command on a double key press. Is this at all possible through bash? The keyboard shortcut mappings don't provide a way to capture double key presses. [00:15] I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and I am trying to do an nfs mount from a NAS that cannot do nfs4. My mount fails, and when I put -vvvvv as a flag, I see that the out put says, "mount.nfs: mount(2): Connection refused mount.nfs: trying text-based options 'vers=4,addr=192.168.10.41,clientaddr=192.168.10.80'" before it fails. How do I get it NOT to use nfs4?? [00:15] wireless network is not hidden and I did try adding one manually [00:15] harrihu: and...? [00:15] it never even gives me the button "connect" [00:16] it just gives me an add button and ok [00:16] and a delete etc [00:16] I never see the network listed and it's not hidden [00:16] will dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb copy the entire file systems in sda to sdb with boot sectors preserved? [00:16] I don't think the wifi card works with the OS [00:16] harrihu: does it even attempt to connect? you know once you've added the network... does it try to connect? [00:17] prakas: think so [00:17] nope [00:17] considering sda and sdb are usb removable disks (pen drives) [00:17] harrihu: did it ever work? [00:17] nope [00:17] harrihu: what device is it, do you know? [00:17] harrihu: What does the output look like with "iwconfig wlan0"? [00:18] harrihu: ah . in that case there is a very good chance you need proprietary drivers. which you wont know until you connect. you might want to try connecting through a lan cable and get it to work. [00:18] jpk, but from what you said it appears that is not happening [00:18] whats iwconfig wlan0? [00:18] iwconfig is like ifconfig but for wireless I believe [00:18] harrihu: it is a comman line. [00:19] iwconfig wlan0 will tell you the status of wlan0 [00:19] ok [00:19] well it's almost impossible to get this machine hooked up wired [00:19] I could try but if theres any other way [00:19] what problem you have with wired? [00:20] the router is upstairs very far away from the box with no plugs and this box is built into a home theater system [00:20] where is a place to buy ubuntu 11.4 ??? [00:20] ah ok [00:20] harrihu: i know.. its a bit of a fix if you have problems with wired. but really, ubuntu will notify you of possible problems or updates once you connect. maybe a phone/usb/3g/edge sharing , even for 10 mins might help. [00:20] harrihu: If you getnoting useful from iwconfig, do a google with "{name of wifi card} +ubuntu +driver +download" [00:21] pooltable, check ubuntu's website, they have resellers [00:21] pooltable: there is no need to buy it, just download it when it is released [00:21] hmm you know what I'll give it a try [00:21] harrihu: getnoting==get nothing [00:21] when you type iwconfig wlan0 what do you get? [00:21] I have a usb wifi stick and if that fails I'll take the time to get the computer up there [00:21] pooltable: https://shop.canonical.com/ [00:22] running in vmware? ?

[00:24] Hey all. I'm out in New Zealand and it's the 28th, how do I get from Mav to Natty? [00:24] can someone help me real quick. I think i am doing something wrong with setting up my live USB [00:24] right lin [00:24] dibs: It's not released yet. [00:24] top_ramen: Whatcha doing? [00:25] shoot regretting removing it now.. [00:25] top_ramen: just put a regular cd and install to the usb disk [00:25] try man mount [00:25] pooltable: 11.04 will be out today so you will have chance to buy it [00:25] rww: But it's supposed to be out today yeah? [00:25] yeah Dibs [00:25] few hours yet [00:25] dibs: It's due out some time in the period that it's April 28th somewhere in the world. [00:25] I but 10.10 on a usb and use the usb install exe thats on the ubuntu.com/download page to set the usb up [00:25] dibs: depends on time zone :) [00:25] here another location for al http://distrowatch.com/ [00:25] all [00:26] sweet, anyone know where a countdown is [00:26] i use 7.04 fiesty fawn lol [00:26] when 10 came out we were all sitting in here until like 2 am lol, (central time) [00:26] but my computer is not recongizing it as a bootable usb [00:26] dibs: There is no set time, hence no countdown. === cl0se is now known as talntid [00:26] dammit, I was hoping to get an hour or two down time while I upgrade. Gah, will have to get back to work [00:26] escott: I guess what I mean is some resume code goes, "let's see if there's an image in the old swap partition... oh, wait, it's not there anymore. Oh well, just do a normal boot." Then later on when something looks at the new swap partition, it sees an image in there and goes, "What's this crap? We're doing a normal boot." Then clears it out. Or something. My biggest enemy, here, is I don't know how resume works yet. :-P [00:27] lol dibs [00:27] Is upgrding using the update-manager -d risky? like it will use the same repo yeah? [00:27] top_ramen: I think that you need to explicitly copy the 0th sector from the cd (cdimage) to the usb. [00:27] what time was 10.10 out ? [00:27] Lin, ummm what? [00:27] jpk, did you leave the old swap partition unchanged, you could write a new filesystem on top of it [00:27] 3 in the morning Next stupid question. [00:27] i still prefer 7.04 lol [00:27] uncmar, whats your name? [00:27] Anyone got Mark's number, let's take this to the top [00:28] it is more lightweight [00:28] 10.10 takes a lot of time to load [00:28] hey Lin, did you try mount -t nfs option?

[00:32] Hello Devil999 [00:33] Lin, Yeah i sent you a query [00:33] hiexpo: do you mean swap space? If you flush the ram then the system will cease to be [00:33] how's it going? any news for 11.04? [00:33] uncmar: why do you use unsupported version [00:33] {blush} not knowing what it was, I closed the tab. [00:33] Lin, sent again ^^ [00:33] uncmar: do you use server [00:33] because it was a running server. that I didn't want to take time to upgrade. [00:34] Why is it when I listen the channels on XChat, I can't join anything? x.x [00:34] ActionParsnip, well after like today i had 146.00 gig in ram being used and only have 2 gig ram [00:34] spending a DAY to upgrade/revive a system from an upgrade attempt stinks. [00:34] any idea? [00:34] hiexpo: can you give the output of: free -m [00:34] uncmar: is there any reason not to upgrade now [00:34] zvacet: so, I just answered both questions with one answer. [00:35] uncmar: ok [00:35] nope, Right out of ubuntu. though I must admint Ubuntu wasn't the reason for the failure. *I AM* [00:35] *admit [00:36] escott: Ah, I see. I'll try that, then.

[00:39] hiexpo: if its only cache then its fine, unused ram is wasted ram [00:39] when building from source, and doing autogen.sh is there a way to force, and make it finish, regardless of missing dependancies? [00:39] hiexpo: just watch the right hand value on the "-/+ buffers/cache" line [00:39] of course I could attempt to poke around the net. Need to know system requirements of 8.04 Live CD.

[01:05] Ph0n7r1c: Alt-F2 synaptic [01:05] you guys just talk a lot, which helps me look at my client :) [01:05] especially the scrolling and stuff [01:05] mknarr: Well, there is /etc/group [01:05] mknarr: Sorry, typo [01:05] Does Gwibber crap out for anyone after a few weeks? [01:06] sdegutis, sure thing... just stick around. a lot of talk going to happen. [01:06] usually [01:06] thanks :) [01:06] i like making useless stuff :( [01:06] I need to find an informative doc on how to work the user accs / groups ... [01:06] ph@Juliana:~$ sudo synaptic [01:06] sh: kde-config: not found [01:06] sh: kde-config: not found [01:06] Segmentation fault [01:06] Ph0n7r1c: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:07] mknarr: man group [01:08] its say kde-config not found how can that be i am using gnome [01:08] oh one thing i like about my client: when you send a msg to a channel which yo dont have permissions for (like ##linux whe you arent voiced), it gives your message a strikethrough [01:09] I seem to remember a website with deb packages for ubuntu. I tried installing ettercap-ng with the repos, but it errors out every time. I need that deb package or to install from source. Anyone know the name of the site? [01:09] mknarr: man useradd man groupadd [01:09] n/m I found it [01:10] sdegutis: That's useful [01:11] ogre: :) sometimes we jog our memory just by formulating questions. [01:11] What is the difference between the file "group" and "group-" [01:11] im guessing the one with the - is a backup? [01:11] Does 11.04 go live tonight? [01:12] mknarr: right [01:12] it goes live the 20 sometime [01:12] woot [01:12] the 28*** [01:12] kinda.. [01:12] I cant wait [01:12] although it doesnt have private messaging yet [01:12] lolwut [01:12] i forgot it's so soon [01:12] What are the major changes for 11.04? [01:12] sdegutis: Well, get back to work! [01:13] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+milestone/ubuntu-11.04 <-- "Expected: [01:13] 12 minutes ago" [01:13] EnderW: They are widespread and often. [01:13] EnderW: (...sorry, couldn't resist...) [01:13] plop [01:13] What's the time? (I'm in europe... ;)) [01:13] lawl [01:13] im looking for a good command line sound processing tool. something CLI like sox but im looking for a specific feature, very slight audio length expansion/contraction. basically, i have an audio source that gets 1 second off sync of another one after ~4 hours. this means i need 3.33 samples out of 48000 removed from the slower source. does anyone know of a proggy that can help me do that [01:13] ? [01:14] anyone can tell me if apt: links work when using :// ? like apt://build-essential ? [01:14] Roydi: europe spans MANY timezones [01:14] Roydi: 2:14 [01:14] Roydi: (... sorry, again, I couldn't resist...) [01:15] Would it matter if i edit the group file to display eachgroup on a diff line ? [01:15] how long till 11.04 is out? [01:15] /usr/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2exited with code 256 what is it and how do i fix it [01:15] ... it kinda violates the spirit of the RFCs but dokuwiki thinks apt is a namespace if I don't use :// :( [01:15] mknarr: they are already on separate lines. [01:15] hmm weird i DLed the file from my server to look at it [01:16] and everything is on 1 line [01:16] ssfdre38: ask in #ubuntu+1 natty isofftopic here [01:16] ActionParsnip, my timezone isn't important for my question :) Okay, let's ask a different way - When will Natty release in MY timezone (GMT+1)? :) [01:16] mknarr: With what app. are you viewing it? [01:16] Sorry ;) [01:16] usr13, notepad [01:16] Roydi: ask in #ubuntu+1 natty is offtopic here [01:16] mknarr: That is why. [01:16] notepad+ needs a linux build [01:17] mknarr: i suppose you would have to toggle wordwrap on or of or something... I dono.... [01:17] hello room [01:18] * itguru feels a bit excited .... [01:18] * itguru runs date on cli [01:18] Im guessing that when im viewing the group doc that if there isnt a usr/acc type beside a group it isnt in use? [01:18] itguru: Just another day in the life of a Ubuntu community.... :-) [01:18] It's THURSDAY! [01:19] Anybody know how to connect a logitech C210 webcam to ubuntu? I'm having nothing but headaches [01:19] what are you guy s up to and whats new on ubuntu [01:19] hammer [01:19] ? [01:19] ? [01:19] itguru: it's the day after WEDNESADY [01:19] mknarr: Just means that no one has joined the group yet. [01:19] mknarr, could be in use on the fs though [01:19] itguru: welcome to the calendar [01:19] ActionParsnip: True, but *this* thursday is special :) [01:19] escott, aah true [01:20] itguru: true, but not yet [01:20] ie the root [01:20] hi everybody [01:20] /usr/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2exited with code 256 what is it and how do i fix it [01:20] escott: yea that's right [01:20] reeceb: run: lsusb use the 8 character hex id to find guides. Logitech refuse to support linux so I suggest you avoid their products [01:20] How much of a performance increase would i find if i installed a ssd in my desktop [01:21] i dont really use it for anything intense as it is [01:21] somebody use 3 monitor with 2 gpu on ubuntu? [01:21] ActionParsnip: Well, according to my calender, the position of the sun, and BBC News, I should be re installing all my test machines to 11.04 stable :) [01:21] reeceb, have you checked the v4l website [01:21] xiambax: loading apps and the OS will improve [01:21] should i be making say a user called WEB for my web stuff and adding the group "www-data" to it ? [01:21] brb i will check newegg for prices [01:21] itguru: all that is moot, depends when the servers get updated [01:21] * itguru hits F5 in his browser ... [01:21] Dammit! Still 10.10 ! === zzecool is now known as zzecool_away [01:22] lol [01:22] itguru, why not just update-manager -d [01:22] ActionParsnip: I'm just screwing around, I was kinda hoping that this time it woulda happened at midnight, but hey [01:22] itguru: 11.04 here ;) [01:22] lsusb sees the camera but I don't know how to get to it [01:22] no worries, been running beta for weeks [01:22] !? [01:22] reeceb, and you have v4l installed [01:22] * itguru hits F5 rapidly [01:23] reeceb: thats just the ID, use it to find uides [01:23] Where you at Actionparrship so I can get it too lol [01:23] itguru: while true; do date; sleep 1; done [01:23] *guides [01:23] reeceb, cheese [01:23] I just installed ubuntu this last week for an embedded systems project so I'm still learning the terminal stuff [01:23] I'm not sure if I have V4l installed [01:24] reeceb install synaptic sudo apt-get synaptic, and then use it to install cheese and the v4l2 tools [01:24] oem is gone...? [01:24] wtracy1: hehe! nice! But sleep is for wimps - i'm gonna have all my desktop users asking me where is the awesome new interface that I've been rubbing in their faces on my dell tablet for weeks [01:24] reeceb, also check the v4l website to see if your camera version is supported [01:24] Sweet. Thanks guys. I'll start there. [01:25] somebody know how configure 2 gpu and 3 monitor? i will install natty, but i dont know about that :( === fishwithapipe is now known as f|shy === zzecool_away is now known as zzecool [01:26] zzecool: please don't away like that [01:26] http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820139428 this should be more then enough to save my OS on [01:27] 16gb? [01:27] somebody know how configure 2 gpu and 3 monitor? i will install natty, but i dont know about that :( [01:27] you can get a 32 gig usb drive lol [01:27] robert05ad: I've had it since alpha 2 [01:27] oh ok [01:27] I just bought the vertex 2 160, looove it [01:27] should have waited on the vertex 3 lol [01:28] oh noes, its the 28th! [01:28] not yet basso [01:28] robert05ad: for me it is! :D [01:28] i need a little help setting up conky. I understand how to create a .conkyrc config file. but i downloaded a setup that is in LUA format and it tells me to put it in ~/.conky (but i dont see a .conky file in my home file) [01:28] basso: your in good company, we're all waiting :) [01:29] ^^ [01:29] somebody know how configure 2 gpu and 3 monitor? i will install natty, but i dont know about that :( [01:29] KaAtta, I have no idea what that even is lol [01:30] brisky83, thats a rather exotic configuration, are these ati or nvidia [01:30] KaAtta, you gotta make a .conkyrc file [01:30] Captainkrtek, whats up man [01:30] KaAtta: the file needs creating, you ca find sample files on the web [01:30] hiexpo, hte conky setup i downloaded is in lua format, and it wants me to place it in the .conky directory. which is supposed to be in my user folder, but im not seeing it [01:30] escott: i have 2 ati, in a mainbord asus rog formula IV [01:31] * itguru believes the digital gates should be opened according to the nasa time servers date! [01:31] hey mknarr [01:31] escott: 3870 and 4850 ati [01:31] KaAtta: la | .con* [01:31] just got home from work [01:31] hiexpo, ActionParsnip here is the link with the file i downloaded and the instructions http://www.techdrivein.com/2011/02/6-awesome-conky-configs-that-just-works.html [01:31] ati is notoriously bad for linux support. [01:31] KaAtta: .conkyrc is a file, not a folder [01:31] those wont sli brisky [01:31] usb wouldnt be faster then SATA ssd [01:32] Is there documentation that explains how to use OpenLDAP utilities with OpenSSL instead of GnuTLS? [01:32] KaAtta, when you create a file with . first it is hidden so open open folder click view and than show hidden files [01:32] KaAtta: Ups, sorry: la | grep .con* [01:32] ActionParsnip, i linked the URL i was going off of, could u take a look and see if u can understand what it wants form me? [01:32] hiexpo, i have enabled hidden folders already [01:33] KaAtta, should be .conkyrc down towards the bottom [01:33] katsrc: you need to extract the folder then run the commands on http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/conky_grey?content=137272 [01:33] hiexpo: there's a method listed on the page above [01:33] robert05ad: i read about bad on ati supporting linux, i dont use crossfire, and i dont need it, i will not gaming on it, but i use 2 gpu for use 3 monitor [01:34] ActionParsnip, i know conky very well :) [01:34] brisky83, crossfire support is not listed as supported http://www.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature [01:34] hiexpo: if you read the link, it gives instructions to run, so conkyrc isnt needed [01:34] robert05ad: but when i try it on maverik i becoma mad with it and came back on win7, but i love natty on my netbook and i want use on big pc [01:34] escott: hes not trying to crossfire [01:34] hiexpo, ActionParsnip qin i figured it out guys, i had to create a folder and paste the lua into it [01:35] there was no previous folder, i had to create the directory. its working now :D [01:35] acicula, brisky83 ok. my connection dropped [01:35] brisky83: you may have to run xorg on each card, so no unified desktop [01:35] ActionParsnip, ya that is silly using lua [01:35] escott: thanks but i dont care about crossfire, i only want 3 monitor in mutliscreen [01:36] brisky83, i think acicula is right. i don't know if xinerama would work, but you could run two different x servers on different cards [01:36] hiexpo: it works so I don't argue with it [01:36] KaAtta, why you using lua ? [01:36] hi guys i need a an information,the realese about ubuntu 11.04? [01:36] hiexpo: Conky is configured using lua. [01:37] hiexpo, i was googling "conky configs" with a time filter of hte last year, and i saw that setup that was pretty [01:37] hiexpo, so i wanted [01:37] escott: acicula i read about it, cinerama on maverick wont work :( but i read to start 2 xconfig with single card everytime , and copy on 1 after all that [01:37] armor-64: ask in #ubuntu+1 [01:37] when will be available 11.04 ? [01:37] Jordan_U, yes but not hard to make your own rc file [01:37] rendero: When it's ready. [01:37] actionparnip:thnks man [01:37] arand, when will be ready xD ? [01:38] brisky83: http://superuser.com/questions/257676/ubuntu-3-monitors-2-video-cards-not-working , seems you can get away with just running one xserver. [01:40] acicula: thanks i save it, and i will try after i download the dayly natty, im a "newbie" but i really love use ubuntu also in desktop pc [01:40] brisky83: i remember using xinerama before, it can be a bit fiddly and dont know if you can configure it using a desktop wizard either, so can be a bit fiddly [01:40] rendero: Before 29th [01:40] oh is natty released? [01:41] ADMINS: think about putting this somewhere in Ubottu or something. I've decided this is a good way to learn more linux. http://tldp.org/LDP/intro-linux/html/index.html [01:41] acicula: im downloading the daily of 27/04 i guess is the same of official of today [01:42] arand, but i saw schedule and its written 28th :S [01:42] question: do I have to upgrade to 10.10 before I can upgrade to natty? (now 10.04) [01:42] tripelb: Yes [01:43] KaAtta, here is my conky http://tinypic.com/r/34fzo6g/7 [01:43] You can install 11.04 fresh [01:43] tripelb: 10.04 LTS? [01:43] arand, thanks [01:43] um, 10.04 - is there more than one kind? [01:44] no there isnt [01:44] stay on 10.04 its the better one to be on [01:44] this one ssfdre38 - You are using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS [01:44] - the Lucid Lynx - released in April 2010 and supported until April 2013. [01:44] [01:44] !isitout [01:44] It's out soon! Join #ubuntu-release-party and await release with the other excited folks :D [01:44] oh ssfdre38 that's easy. at what point would I move onto 10.10 ? [01:45] the next LTS is out [01:45] how can i export database of banshee ? [01:45] isnt 10.10 stable? [01:45] 10.04 its good for 3 years of support [01:45] actually released? [01:46] 10.10 and 11.04 gets 18 months of support [01:46] LTS just means its supported for a longer period, and supposedly a little more stable then the usual intermediary versions [01:46] sancas: ~/.config/banshee-1/banshee.db [01:46] i mean.. it is a simple dist-upgrade [01:46] next LTS is 12.04 [01:46] sancas: that's an sqlite3 database that you can use if you're so inclined [01:49] 10.04 moo betta Macer [01:49] hiexpo, nice, but thats a bit too complicated for my girlfriend lol [01:49] does unity have betterfonts, clearer, sharper? [01:50] bloopletech, and to restore? only paste in the same place? [01:50] KaAtta, 10.04 is too complicated for your girlfriend? [01:50] KaAtta, only took me 30 minutes to make it [01:51] sancas: I believe so [01:51] !party [01:51] Please remember that #ubuntu, #kubuntu, #xubuntu, and #edubuntu are support channels. To countdown to Natty release and then party once it happens, join #ubuntu-release-party - For in-person parties, see http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/global/744/detail/ [01:51] sancas: assuming you're on the samish version of banshee [01:51] tripelb, no he was talking bout my conky [01:51] O [01:51] O [01:51] tripelb, there is a new font, but you shouldn't have blurry fonts have you tried adjusting your subpixel rendering options [01:51] tripelb: you can configure how fonts look on your current system (and I assume on unity) [01:52] I'm still asking questions about how to partition my gynormous (1T) hard drive so that I can have 2 different ubuntus. I am also still asking about how to copy files from one ubuntu (one one hard drive) to another. I cant sign in on both and I am stuck. [01:53] bloopletech, yes :) but.. if the place of music change but this have the same name no problem?? [01:53] tripelb: System -> Preferences -> Appearance, then the Fonts tab. If you're using an LCD then turn Subpixel rendering on and then tweak it by clicking Details... [01:53] nite everybody [01:53] sancas: I'm not sure, it might store absolute paths in the database [01:53] bloopletech, escott, unless it will get better on reboot I've configured all there is to configure and it's better on windows. I dont want windows, I want fonts I can see with more ease. [01:54] bloopletech, I am using a CRT. [01:54] tripelb: you're going to have to be a lot more specific than it's 'better on windows' [01:54] oh, than turn subpixel off [01:54] hiexpo, nice, ill link u what im going with once im done customizing it [01:54] bloopletech, im going to try in this moment :P [01:54] try grayscale [01:54] bloopletech, I can read it there. here I have to make it bigger. -- I turned it on 2 days ago and it made no differnce. [01:54] I like color I dont want to go back to before the amiga. [01:55] you are dissing me by saying that. [01:55] tripelb: what [01:55] nevermind. [01:55] tripelb: I meant grayscale font smoothing [01:55] <[Messer]> is this server's full of programmers?) [01:55] oh. ok [01:55] not grayscale display [01:55] [Messer]: nah, but I'm a programmer. [01:55] because subpixel rendering is designed for lcd's so it won't work very well on crt [01:56] escott and others, thanks a ton. I'm up and running with cheeze now I'm just wondering how to directly access the video feed for processing [01:56] hi [01:56] reeceb, its /dev/video0 but v4l does lots of nice stuff (like flipping my upside down camera the right way) [01:56] <[Messer]> » uncmar » the most of channels are linux, ubuntu etc.. O_o )) [01:56] subpixel, things smaller than pixels? what are those, pixels below pixels so that when you scale up it looks pretty? [01:56] KaAtta, kk [01:56] bloopletech, thanks for the help. I'm too tired to remember how to get there now. [01:56] tripelb: WRT your other questions, the easiest way to partition your drives is probably to burn a livecd, boot into that and use gparted to divide your drive in half - though you may want swap partitions for each installation [01:57] reeceb, i would recommend using gstreamer to get the stream, or look at the v4l docs there may be bindings for popular languages [01:57] gstreamer? [01:57] uncmar: on an lcd, each pixel is mad eup of three lights: a red a green and a blue one [01:57] [Messer]: isn't it great? Linux is taking over. Well, at least becoming a bit more popular. [01:57] and how do I get to dev/video0 [01:57] <[Messer]> » uncmar » yup, man, you're right =) [01:57] subpixel rendering means controlling the individual lights to achieve a better result [01:58] reeceb, media framework included in gnome. what do you want to do with your camera video? and what language do you want to use? [01:58] greetings; what are some ways to set up my hard disk partitions? [01:58] Just now was the first time I joined this channel since last year, or maybe I joined once earlier this year or something [01:58] hopefully C and do some minor vision detection with openCV [01:58] revButl, are you asking for suggested partition layouts or tools to partition [01:58] suggested partition layouts please [01:58] eh, CRT's display with the same RGB combo. Hence, 24 bit color. 8 bits per the trio. [01:59] uncmar: well no [01:59] I have openCV installed and am using Harpia to prototype my algorythms but my end target system is a beagleboard [01:59] revButl, how many disks do you have, how much space, what are your goals/uses for the system, how would you prioritize things like backups vs performance vs flexibility [01:59] uncmar: crts work by projecting beams through a phosphor coating at the screen [01:59] reeceb, see if someone has codesamples for openCV and v4l2 im sure its been done many times [02:00] Why was Grub2 v1.97 and not just 2.0? [02:00] tripelb: regarding accessing your other hard drive: if you go Places -> Computer your other drive sohuld be there and you should be able to double click it to access the files on that drive [02:00] au-contrarian, 2.0 hasn't been released yet, but they really liked the features and thought it was stable enough [02:00] decreasing emphasis on flexibility, data recovery, then performance; i have one hard disk with about 50 gigs over half a terabyte with about half a terabyte designated for windows [02:00] how can i close banshee if when i close it if i using integration with my sound menu? [02:01] So Grub2 isn't really Grub2, it's Grub1.97 [02:01] <[Messer]> » uncmar » by the way, I'd just want to find english-speaking channel/server.. When I came here, I've got very amazed of Linux's popularity ) [02:01] au-contrarian, no it is grub2 version 1.97 [02:01] <_ryx_> viva 11.04 === rww is now known as rww_ [02:02] revButl, i would suggest making a smaller partition ~15-20gigs for your operating system and configuring it as raid1 mirrored across the two disks with mdadm [02:02] hiexpo, didnt forget about u, i got terminal running a package update, taking a few minutes before i can load up my new conky config [02:03] revButl, for the rest of the disk i would have raid1 as well, and use that for your larger files, if you outgrow the storage you can either buy more or go into a raid1 degraded mode and free a half-terabyte [02:03] oh sorry i have integrated my banshee with my sound menu and i never can close it :( how can i close? [02:03] revButl, and don't forget a bit for swap space [02:03] Huh. I'm on a live CD, installing ubuntu. Installer seems to be just sitting at 79%, not looking like its doing much [02:03] why does banshee not work with ipod? [02:03] what works with ipod [02:03] is the current heuristic for swapspace to be 2x the amount of memory you have still? [02:03] !countdown [02:03] revButl, im sure you can get many other opinions [02:03] mrdeb: it does work with most ipods, what ipod do you have? [02:03] mrdeb: a mac or windows. but, linux? I don't know. I won't buy an ipod. [02:03] shuffle [02:03] !isitout | multipass [02:03] multipass: It's out soon! Join #ubuntu-release-party and await release with the other excited folks :D [02:04] escott, hiexpo - thanks. [02:04] mrdeb: what happens when you try to sync? [02:04] sancas: open a terminal and do killall -9 banshee - that will forcibly terminate banshee [02:04] computerwiz_222: it does nto see it [02:04] au-contrarian, welcome np [02:04] mrdeb: does it mount it as a device in the file manager? [02:04] au-contrarian, those gnu people tend to be a little picky about having all the details right with unimportant stuff like a bootloader ;) [02:04] i don't want to configure my computer so that i lose education or entertainment potential; i just remember Ubuntu putting about 5 partitions on my hard disk; [02:04] computerwiz_222: no [02:04] mrdeb: also.. what ipod shuffle? the latest one? [02:05] no [02:05] What should I do if my installer just seems to sitting at a certain percentage (in this case, 79%)... Seemingly not doing anything. [02:05] mrdeb: it should work just fine.. i hate to ask.. is it plugged in? [02:05] revButl, you only need 2 [02:05] revButl, thats not really necessary, its a throwback from the old days of unix sysadmins when each disk was 10megs [02:05] revButl: you can just make a main partition and a swap partition - it's not really special how you configure it and it won't change your entertainment potential [02:05] revButl, 90% of people have 2 (/ and swap) some add a couple more for /home or /boot [02:06] ok thanks guys [02:06] jajja bloopletech thanks never thought of it :D [02:06] also, you can resize and add partitions later if you want [02:06] it's not 2000 anymore :D [02:06] sancas: np [02:06] computerwiz_222: yes === user__ is now known as mar7ar [02:07] when is natty releasing? [02:07] now [02:07] viranch: sometime in the next 24hours probablky [02:07] escott- then name is just maddening. There is Grub, I get that, and that never really had a version 1, it just went up to 0.97 - and then they decide to release Grub2 but that is version 1.97 - seriously WTF? They could have at least called Grub2 v1.0 [02:07] How long should "creating user" really take when installing ubuntu? Has been sitting at that in the installer for about 5 mins now. [02:07] mrdeb: not released yet! [02:07] bloopletech: not a fixed time? [02:07] viranch: no [02:08] au-contrarian, its understandable it is a bootloader and all [02:08] viranch: I think they leave it flexible in case there are last minute issues [02:08] bloopletech: Ok.. [02:08] au-contrarian, it could have a version number like latex which is always fun [02:08] suddenly my comp is running slow [02:08] what should i do?? [02:08] induz, what has changed [02:08] viranch: you can join #ubuntu-release-party if you like and await 11.04 [02:08] nothing has changed [02:08] hello [02:08] hiexpo, ok bud, here is the setup i went with http://i55.tinypic.com/4oo5j.png [02:09] induz, see if anything is using cpu in gnome-system-monitor [02:09] induz: Start -> System -> Administration -> Task Manager [02:09] bloopletech: sounds nice! thanks [02:09] then click the cpu column to sort desecending [02:09] KaAtta, what is that desktop widget [02:09] hey türk olanvarmı [02:09] also try clicking the memory column and sort decending to see if something's taking up all your ram [02:09] viranch: np [02:09] Why would my install seemingly stop... installing and just sit at 79%? [02:09] hey türk olanvarmı [02:09] hey türk olan varmı [02:10] escott which? the guages? [02:10] Ziber, can you click on details anywhere [02:10] escott: nope... [02:10] KaAtta, yes the "speedometer" for cpu [02:10] KaAtta, pretty kool you using kde huh === Laggg is now known as Laggg|1x [02:10] hiexpo, no, using gnome, 10.10 [02:11] Ziber, what was the last thing it said it was doing, or is it just a progress bar? [02:11] why? [02:11] is there anyway i can find what r the processes running [02:11] escott: Progress bar, 79%, "creating user..." [02:11] most of the processes r sleeping [02:11] escott, that is conky, i just installed it and configured it using a setup i found online [02:11] but available swap is just 3% [02:11] KaAtta, cool [02:11] induz: something is chewing your ram [02:11] induz in terminal: ps aux [02:11] induz: try sorting by memory usage descending [02:12] Ziber, have you already entered your username info? wondering if there is a popup somewhere behind a window [02:12] escott: I already have, came before it. [02:12] that is gnome KaAtta oh with bar on bottom forgot what that is called looks like kde but now that i look at i know [02:12] escott: no other window associated with it. [02:12] the bar im using is cairo-dock [02:12] bloopletech, yes all you say is true. I can access them. I cannot copy them because I dont have permission. when I log into the other drive I cannot even see my normal filesystem. I can only see the filesystem I am on and 2 windows partitions and one NTFS partions. (I have 3 drives mounted.) [02:12] im still trying to figure out how to get composite to work on my LDXE setup, been trying for days [02:12] cant get any help in lubuntu channel [02:13] Ziber, can you run stuff from the live cd, namely the system monitor and see if anything is happening [02:13] any help with a intel 845ge video card on board i found nothing to help in google [02:13] hi all...if in proftpd, i want to create a user, and lock them into a directory, say like /home/user/Pictures, do I have to create that user in ubuntu (cli or otherwise?) [02:13] escott: where would i find that? slightly new to ubuntu. [02:13] ps aux throws a list of % CPU and i dont know what to do with them [02:13] KaAtta, oh ok that lbuntu not gnome [02:13] tripelb: ah I see. To deal with the permissions issue you may be able to run gksudo nautilus and copy the files in that window [02:13] tripelb: I'm not sure why you can't see the partition from the other installation [02:14] hiexpo, the screentshot is gnome, i ALSO have another machine running lubuntu, but i cant get composite to work on it [02:14] netmsi, when you install proftpd it should create a user for the app, the restriction bit is part of the proftpd config, there is a gui for proftpd as well [02:14] hi everybody i`m in such a big problem i have intented to remove a libusb package but instead i have pressed libusb* then all dependant package are removed how can i fix this?/? [02:14] Is there a way to determine if I am running Ubuntu 32 or 64 bit? [02:14] how can i make it run fatser as earlier?? [02:14] syddraf: uname -a [02:15] KaAtta, lookslike lkde to me but ok [02:15] Ziber, did you boot the live cd to the desktop environment then start the install or did you just take the first install option [02:15] escott, i tried gadmin, and it seems like webmin is just as viable as an option, but what if i want to create user other than the default? [02:15] bloopletech, I copy what you say and do it another day. Peace. Thanks a lot for working with me. [02:15] I'm having trouble setting the PS1 variable as a non-root user. \u doesn't give the proper output. When I set my variable with PS1='\u\$', I get exactly that as my prompt. [02:15] induz: Go to the task manager, sort by memory usage descending then click the top item and click kill process [02:15] tripelb: np [02:15] KaAtta, nevermind i didnt scrol up lol [02:15] hiexpo, the screenshot is gnome, 10.10, all i have done is changed background, added the dock, added conky, and removed bottom panel [02:15] that is it lol [02:15] induz: repeat until success [02:16] bloopletech: It returns 2.6.32-31-generic-pae #61-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 8 20:00:13 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux [02:16] hai [02:16] syddraf: you're 32-bit [02:16] netmsi, you could do that but there are various things you have to be aware of like, making sure the user has /dev/null as their shell and some pam stuff, better to use the suggested user [02:16] bloopletech: Thank you. I appreciate it. [02:16] syddraf: np [02:16] where can i locate the covert art of the song is playing rigth now? im using banshee2.0 [02:16] hai [02:16] oi!!1 [02:16] its getting better now [02:16] what?? [02:16] do i have to perform this KILL process everytime [02:16] i love yiou [02:17] anybody know what time natty goes live? [02:17] no [02:17] hypetech: there is no set time [02:17] k [02:17] oi [02:17] oi [02:17] oi [02:17] mupeng: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [02:17] hi i have installed ubuntu from a cd that my friend gave me, and am having trouble getting my graphics to look right. I have got pretty much everything the way i want it but the video is messed up looking. here is a list of some commands. http://pastebin.com/EupuENiB [02:17] escott, so multiple users are not advisable? what if i need three separate users each with their own direct.? [02:17] induz: only if a program is doing something wrong and using memory badly [02:17] induz: not usually [02:17] netmsi, you can only have one service on a single port [02:18] KaAtta, should use 10.04 did you look what kernal i was using :) [02:18] netmsi, so proftpd has to run as someone, and various restrictions should be put around that user, which they do by default, so that if someone does intrude into proftpd the damage they can do is minimal [02:18] jstrap: what's wrong with the video at the moment? is the resolution too low or... [02:18] i didnt [02:18] super fast [02:18] escott, but it supports multiple connections (forgive the ignorance)? [02:18] hiexpo, i really wanna try 11.04 but i cant get the beta to boot for me if my life depended on it [02:18] ^ KaAtta [02:19] bloopletech, its getting a bit better by killing some of the processes [02:19] bloopletech, yes, thats what it is. [02:19] hello [02:19] jstrap: try going to System -> Preferences -> Monitors [02:19] KaAtta, leave 11.04 alone 10.04 has better support [02:19] escott, maybe i'm using the wrong word when i say users..multiple logins? [02:19] jstrap: see if it will let you increase the resolution [02:19] upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10 and only have one resolution [02:19] I need some help with a realtek driver [02:19] bloopletech, but i really dont know what i am killing as names are not familiar except few like mozila and thunderbird [02:20] netmsi, give me a sec to confirm what i am saying is true ;) [02:20] can any budy hekp me?? [02:20] induz: true, it is a bit risky [02:20] escott, thank you.. [02:20] induz: I mean if you're not sure, rebooting should sort it out [02:20] KaAtta, always better to stay with the lts versions :) [02:21] netmsi, so there is a distinction between a remote shell ala ssh and an service like http [02:21] Realtek Driver any here body out there who can help?? [02:21] bloopletech, I tried that, but it seems i dont have any driver installed maybe? would there be a program by nvidia if i did? [02:21] jstrap: you have an nvidia chipset? [02:21] george, sure what chipset ? [02:21] ive used 10.10 more then anything and to be honest, right now im loving it. im pretty new to linux and im having a fairly easy time figuring it out [02:21] i have no idea? [02:22] is boult in [02:22] hiexpo, i really wish my othe rmachine was capable of running 10.10 [02:22] netmsi, when you ssh into a server you have an account running as your user on that server, when you http into a server you are asking an httpd program like apache to do things on your behalf, proftpd can do a bit of both, but the safer thing is to set it up like an httpd server [02:22] bloopletech, yes [02:22] jstrap: If so, then I believe you have two options: the driver that nvidia supplies, and a new open-source driver built by the community [02:22] KaAtta, 10.04 can do more :) [02:22] jstrap: I'd suggest maybe trying both if you're not sure - I don't have nvidia so I can't recommend which one [02:22] let me link you [02:22] question is, will it run smoothly on my other machine? [02:23] hiexpo: what's the benefit of 10.04? [02:23] george, not a usb ? [02:23] my other machine has issues running 10.10 but runs lubuntu 10.10 just fine [02:23] bloopletech, Im sure i have nvidia, but i dont know exactly what i have in this laptop, if that makes any sense lol === sabayonuser is now known as reves [02:23] escott, ok...i think i understood that answer..you'll have to forgive, am just learning about ftp..still hasnt quite coalesced methinks [02:23] netmsi, so when proftpd gets a connection request it authenticates against a list of usernames which need not be real users of the server (without a account or /home, so the only thing they can do is ftp), and then forks and processes their requests [02:23] jstrap: yeah np. DO you know what version of ubuntu you have installed? [02:23] hypetech, you can hack t better :) [02:23] install virtualbox 4.0.6 with ubuntu 11.04, but /etc/init.d/vboxdrv is missing. Anyone please? [02:24] hypetech, and it lts [02:24] netmsi, if you want a service for people who have accounts on the server already consider ssh and sftp [02:24] digdeep: oh you want to virtualmachine Ubuntu 11.04? [02:24] hiexpo, what does LTS stand for? [02:24] escott, yes, that was my question...so how do i create those accounts (not on the server, just for ftp purposes? [02:24] !lts | KaAtta [02:24] KaAtta: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) === Laggg|1x is now known as Laggg [02:24] KaAtta, long term support [02:24] wrong channel, sorry [02:24] bloopletech, the cd that he gave me was blank, but i think its 9.04. I thought if i installed all the updates it might fix it, but it didnt [02:25] digdeep: I can link you to some proper instructions on how to virtual machine 11.04 [02:25] netmsi, its part of the proftpd config haven't done it in some time though [02:25] no hiexpo is a built in to a toshiba [02:25] hiexpo, sebsebseb ty both [02:25] digdeep: actsaully I think for a virtual machine of 11.04, even though 11.04 isn't out just yet, this channel would be sort of ok, because you could be virtual machining it with a previous version of Ubuntu, as host, and you could with another distro as host as well [02:25] jstrap: ok, you have a couple options. You can upgrade your ubuntu to a later version (which is different to installing the updates); this is probably a good idea anyway as 9.04 is a few years old now [02:26] KaAtta, i boot in 32 secs :) [02:26] netmsi, ftp is discouraged for a lot of reasons, if you can use ssh and sftp thats better [02:26] escott, i don't mind figuring it out myself, but what is that login called in proftpd? 'user', 'account', etc.? [02:26] either way you can switch to the nvidia supplied drivers if you like - here is a howto https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia [02:26] escott, thanks again. I've found some stuff online and I'm callin' it for the evening. Take it easy [02:26] reeceb_, np [02:26] george, ok you need to get the info of it and i can probally help you than [02:26] ok [02:26] netmsi, virtual users i think [02:27] escott, unfortunately not...the people i want to share file w/ are not technical...i can set them up w/ a ftp client, they can hang.. [02:27] hi is there a way to get apt-get to tell me how many updates are available? [02:27] hey I'm having a problem on ubuntu 11.04 gdm login: "There is a problem with the configuration server. (/usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256" [02:27] escott, cool... [02:27] let me see if i can toshiba drivers for win 7 dose not have info on the chipset only on the units compatible [02:27] auxin... try sudo apt-get update === ross is now known as Guest42040 [02:27] jstrap: the current Long Term Support release of ubuntu is 10.04 lucid, and the latest version is 10.10 maverick [02:28] bloopletech, ok. guess it was worth the try cause i learned a few thing but ill just have to do a fresh install of a later distro. thanks for the help though :) [02:28] jstrap: although 11.04 natty is coming out in the next day or so ;) [02:28] Ziber, you still waiting on that install [02:28] jstrap: ok -though you can upgrade ubuntu over the internet if you want [02:28] reves, hmm no that doesnt work, thanks though [02:28] hi, natty beta 2 install freezes after i click next on the screen where you specify whether you want to download updates / install restricted stuff. anyone else seen this before? [02:29] jstrap: assuming you have a decent internet connection [02:29] Im looking for something like aptitudes $aptitude search ~U [02:29] but only for apt-get [02:29] george, open terminal and type > lspci -v | less [02:29] bloopletech, maybe ill just wait for 11.04, might be worth it [02:29] i tried both normal and alternate install iso [02:29] apt-cache search [02:29] u think i can run the driver with WINE???

[02:32] Adis45: Are you sure it's not alreday mounted? [02:32] Its not [02:32] its my other hard disk [02:32] Adis45: Is it listed in fstab?

[02:35] escott, in the proftpd.conf file, is has a commented out template for an anonymous login..just copy that and make the appropriate changes? [02:35] Ok, thanks everybody! [02:35] so can any help me?? [02:35] netmsi, that would be for anonymous (no password login) so if thats what you want sure [02:36] george: Drivers do not work in Wine [02:36] Adis45: You would have to mount it with admin priviledges, (unless you specify that users can in the /etc/fstab file) [02:36] george: or commmercial versions that are sold, for that matter [02:36] I do mount it with admin privileges [02:36] o crap [02:36] do you want me to pastebin the error I get? [02:36] so what can u do? [02:36] that might help [02:36] Adis45: Yes [02:36] george, i told you what to do run that command in the terminal so i know what chipset it has [02:37] escott, def. not...but that configuration works for adding a user, and adding a password or psswd line to the file, or is a waste going that route? [02:37] netmsi, it may be different. http://www.proftpd.org/docs/howto/VirtualUsers.html [02:37] george, lspci -v | less [02:37] george: and with hardware it depends on the dsitro, if it just works or doesn't, in general Linux distro's tend to work quite well with pretty standard PC hardware though. and hiexpo can probably help you properly :) [02:37] Does it change anything if I admit that the wife and kids access the samba server with Windows? I use Ubuntu of course, and the samba server is Ubuntu too. Are groups still the way to go? [02:38] netmsi, the key thing is you want them to have the least priviliged access to the system, preferably nobody or guest [02:38] RedLance: sure if set up right for Samba, you can do what you want, not sure how to do that myself though [02:38] fron the board is an intel [02:38] ? [02:38] escott, gotcha...it's just the mechanics that are screwing me up.. [02:38] usr13: http://pastebin.com/qbVYBK5i [02:39] netmsi, but you don't actually want to put a password on nobody or guest, and then have ftp passing that around in the clear, so I would put a password in the AuthUserFile for "nobody" and then tell them to login with that password and see if you can make that work. [02:39] netmsi, understandable ftp is screwed up [02:39] gconf-snaity-check-2 exited with code 256...it says i have no internet but i do, i can't update..things close randomly..how do i fix this [02:39] sanity [02:39] Adis45: That's great, but I do not see the command you used that generated the error.

[02:40] Communication controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset HECI Controller (rev 06) [02:40] multipass: yes, but wait untill the final is out first, oh and if you do it on release day it may be rather slow to do [02:40] escott, thanks so much...gonna go try some things out..most probably be back ...but appreciate immensely... [02:40] netmsi, if you want it to be pretty you can put a different name on the nobody UID in that AuthUserFile and then they can signin as mrrogers if that makes more sense [02:41] i dont know what to get..sudo apt-get reconfigure isnt working either [02:41] multipass: also since 11.04 get's a major interface change with Unity, you may want to keep 10.10 a while longer [02:41] netmsi, you could probably have a bunch of different aliases all to nobody's UID with their own password [02:41] multipass: or dare I say it here :D look into some other distro [02:41] multipass: Tomorrow you will be ble to. [02:41] or get 11.04 but use a different desktop/window manager [02:41] multipass: also soon after 11.04 comes out, Canonical will have a web thing, so people can try in a web browser [02:41] escott, and would those alias each map to a separate direct.? [02:42] o what? try it in a web browser, sebsebseb ? [02:42] it is version 10.04 [02:42] multipass: yes, it will be Unity 2D thought no Unity 3D, but nearly the same thing, other then that yep like as if you had installed 11.04 [02:42] 10.04 LTS? [02:42] anyone here can help me with a wifi driver [02:42] gogearvibe4g: Yes [02:42] sebsebseb: really?.. i hadn't heard that, thats pretty awesome [02:43] netmsi so nobody is 65534, you could have alice:65534\nbob:65534\ncharlie:65534 in your AuthUserFile (if I am understanding what I am reading correctly) [02:43] Decision: Probably. Tell us what wifi device you have. [02:43] KM0201: I read it on at least one site, maybe two even [02:43] sebsebseb: very cool.. that takes "trying linux" to a whole new level.. don't even have to burn a cd [02:43] i don't know.....i have not used it.... [02:43] KM0201: should be good yeah, get people to try Unity like that first, instead of them doing the upgrade, and then regretting it :d [02:43] i am using 10.10 [02:43] unity rocks [02:43] Decision: lspci |grep ireless [02:43] KM0201: indeed exactly [02:44] sebsebseb: i kind of agree there.. i like unity, but my old laptop just couldn't handle it [02:44] KM0201: right, but since it's a virtual machine or whatever on a Canonical server, then I guess like that, should work with old computers even, since they aren't running it [02:44] KM0201: also Unity 2D may work with your old computer, but that's only a ppa for 11.04 [02:44] sudo apt-get dpkg-reconfigure reports invalid [02:45] sebsebseb: didn't care for unity-2d... so i just went xubuntu.. really happy with it.. i hadn't really used xfce4.. i like it. [02:45] but how would you get 2d? [02:45] usr13, that didnt do anything i ran it in terminal [02:45] so will it be ok to upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04? or would i be better off reformatting with 11.04 [02:45] KM0201: yeah XFCE is nice, but it's nice in loads of distro's not just Ubuntu :) [02:45] Xubuntu even, above [02:45] Decision: lspci #And just look for it. [02:46] Decision: and send us that line.

[02:46] gogearvibe4g: and 11.10 will probably use Unity 2D as the fall back intead of Gnome 2, since they will be using Gnome 3 underneath Unity for that one :D === Staver1 is now known as Staver [02:46] where do crontab files live?

[02:47] i use a laptop with only 2gig of RAM but 250 gig of Drive space [02:48] Hi everyone. [02:48] and i am using Beta 2 for 11.04 [02:48] gogearvibe4g: Unity 2D ppa search Google for that, that omgubuntu link, how they said to install it, that should do it :) oh and Gnome Shell is the way to go really, but no proper Gnome 3 with Gnome Shell experience as an option untill 11.04 it seems. There's a ppa for 11.04, but not the ful experience. [02:48] And sup, newguy [02:48] hi, I just installed ubuntu 10.10 64 bit on an asus ul50vt laptop and went to update the nvidia driver, now when i restart I'm getting it hanging at the "checking battery state" message [02:48] gogearvibe4g: above I meant to put 11.10 for Gnome 3 proper expereince [02:48] i'm pretty new to linux so i'm not really understanding what to do here [02:49] gogearvibe4g: as an option [02:49] ezl: crontab -e #To edit [02:49] miiike: Is your laptop plugged in? [02:49] miiike: how did you install the Nivida driver? [02:49] gogearvibe4g: it's not right now [02:49] KM0201: see above what I said about Gnome 3 by the way :) [02:50] sebsebseb: again, gotcha.. [02:50] sebsebseb: i just clicked on "additional drivers" when i started ubuntu up for the first time and installed it through what popped up there [02:50] sebsebseb: Was just curious.... :D [02:50] gogearvibe4g: some other distro's already doing Gnome 3, and Fedora 15 will soon when it's released, and yeah. [02:50] i did that figured oit [02:50] miiike: ok that should have worked really [02:50] sebsebseb: i actually tried gnome shell... didn't really care for it.. (it was a bit buggy for me).. but i did try the live CD for Open Suse, which had Gnome 3.. and it was very good.. i'm guessing when Gnome 3 PROPERLY hits ubuntu 11.10, it will be much better [02:51] usr13, its a realtek [02:51] miiike: ,but really you don't need the propritary driver installed in 10.10, unless you want some compiz effects, or a few 3D games, 11.04 which will come out pretty soon from now, well things are a bit differnet there, because the 3D version of the new Unity interface needs a propritary driver or experimental 3D driver. in fact if you only just put 10.10 on a lap top, I would suggest waiting untill a bit later and then putting 11.04 on. [02:51] miiike: hmmm...... [02:52] sebsebseb, what video card he have ? [02:52] nvidia [02:52] sebsebseb: oh okay. how do I remove it now that i've installed it? lol [02:52] 11.04 come out TOMORROW!!! {crapping excited!!!} xD [02:52] add the nvidia repos :) === crazymo3 is now known as crazymouse [02:53] miiike, since this froze up on battery state have you tried booting while plugged in [02:53] gogearvibe4g: so is #ubuntu-release-party!

Try again and see what happens [02:57] miiike, you might also see if you have switchable graphics options in the bios and explicitly selecting one [02:57] why ktorrent [02:57] dl so slow [02:57] codex maybe you didn't forward your port? [02:57] miiike, did you go to /system/admin/hardwaredrivers > and no pripority drivers for it ?

[03:11] Hey I just installed ubuntu 11.04 on a dell mini 9, replacing a mac osx installation. When I try to boot I get "boot0: error", but if I boot through a thumb drive I can get into ubuntu fine. Is there a way to fix the bootloader without doing a full reinstall? [03:11] linuxdemon, try virtualbox legal, no torrents and in the apt archive [03:11] i have two questions...how does unity compare to gnome and also is wine the best windows emulator [03:11] just says " [03:11] "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" [03:12] lucus, yeah... except for the random fsck errors when you get more than 15 subvolumes, and the slowness using firefox, and the unrecoverability from errors its great! [03:12] tjiggi_fo: thanks [03:12] miiike: sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf ; sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [03:12] lucus, for a throwaway system by all means give it a go. but its not realistic for a system you will actually use [03:12] escott: LOL!!! You got me... [03:13] usr13, ooh, it went past it and to the login screen now [03:13] cannot open aptitude state file? [03:13] lucus, im only running it now because im taking a break before school and have lots of spare time if it goes kapute [03:13] miiike: Yea, do it. [03:14] miiike: let us know what happens. [03:14] miiike: Oh, you have login screen now? Good! :) [03:14] usr13, yeah haha, i'm going to restart and make sure it'll go all the way now [03:14] miiike: Sorry... didn't understand you. [03:14] escott: to be completely honest I did an install. Have 3 subvolumes at the moment. @32 @64 @home. Works fine, only booting takes ages... [03:14] miiike: Ok. [03:15] usr13, out of curiosity, what did that actually do? [03:15] miiike: just got rid of an improperly written config file. [03:15] lucus thats the fsck scans the whole drive takes 2+ minutes [03:16] miiike: ... and restarted the Xserver [03:16] can someone recommend an easy program to resize icons? [03:16] usr13, ahh okay. it started up perfectly, thanks so much! [03:16] miiike: You removed the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and restarted gdm which is the Desktop window manager. [03:17] escott: Is it necessary to do an fsck at every boot? can't this be tuned? I remember Hardy took over 2 minutes in similar situations, but every 30 boots or so [03:18] miiike: But you are now back to the OpenSource nvidia driver. (And not using the proprietary one you installed earlier, it is not being used anymore.) [03:18] usr13, oh okay. from what's been explained to me i guess i don't really need the proprietary one anyway [03:19] miiike, yes you do [03:19] still, not even regognizeing sudo apt-get dpkg-reconfigure... says E: invalid operation [03:20] miiike, but you can't use compiz. [03:20] hello ubuntu [03:20] miiike: You can (now or later) try and repair it, or.. you can just keep using the OpenSource one, (which for all practical purposes, works just fine).

[03:21] there is no specified time [03:21] tomorrow? [03:21] okay ty [03:21] usr13, i wouldn't really even know where to begin with repairing it [03:21] no there time [03:21] bimbo lol [03:21] im already running ubuntu+1 [03:22] there will be no big differences between what im running now and what gets released tomorrow [03:22] hi all [03:22] are the Beta versions different then the official ones? [03:22] xiambax, did you just answer my question? [03:22] yes, cc11rocks, they are not stable and they are not supported [03:22] cause i have the Beta version on my flash drive [03:22] could i upgread from 10.04 to 11.04 ? [03:22] all the programs kept crashing [03:22] usr13, did i miss your reply..... [03:22] varunvyas: you'd have to go through 10.10 first [03:23] ok [03:23] upgrade to 10.10 then to 11.04 when it comes out [03:23] thanks friends [03:23] np [03:23] usr13, i have no idea how to install the driver [03:24] miiike: well there are tools that can do that, but I think you would need to turn off the Xserver to use them. nvidia-xconfig is probably the one you would most likely need to use. BUT, it is probably the utility that failed and created the error ridden /etc/X11/xorg.conf file in the first place.

[04:21] timccc: tell VLC to open disc and point it to the directory you have [04:21] tripelb: ^^ [04:21] timccc: sorry, mistab [04:21] rww_, thanks === soreau_ is now known as soreau [04:21] * tripelb just loves this channel. [04:22] Spaz_Dynamic: yeah.. it is the fastest solution [04:22] can some one tell me what version must i download i386 or amd64 my processor is Intel Core2Duo T6570 i read in cpu test its 64-bit processor [04:22] cc11rocks: http://pastebin.com/UXwtqWwi [04:22] cdoktor19: amd64 [04:23] thanks BrumDart...how to PM? [04:23] though you can run either...no reason not to run 64 if you can [04:23] rww_: when you beeped me, my VLC paused [04:23] ChogyDan: Eh, alright. I have a separate /home partition, when installing, how do I make it so that it doesn't install a new one and uses the old one as my ~ [04:23] how does that work? [04:23] anyone here familiar or is using duplicity for backups? how far has it scaled for you? would you use this in a enterprise environment? [04:23] !BrumDart Testing [04:23] ha [04:23] Spaz_Dynamic: setup the partitions and don't format /home? [04:23] even my processor not AMD based ? [04:23] rww_, wow I can do the same thing then with the iso file from the dvd I copied -- then destroyed the original so I cant read it. Oh my Ponyo will be saved. [04:23] cdoktor19, be warned though. i think flash isn't that great with 64 flavor yet [04:23] celthunder: alright, thanks. I've just never done it before so I wasn't 100% certain. [04:23] * tripelb dances a bit. [04:24] cdoktor19: yeah it's fin [04:24] temporarytao: flash works fine...just make a 32 bit chroot or use multilib [04:24] celthunder, i stand corrected [04:25] tripelb, loved that movie. good thing you saved it [04:25] how to make a 32 bit chroot ??? am newbie [04:26] how to make a 32 bit chroot or multilib which is the easy way, [04:26] cdoktor I would advise you learn what chroot does first [04:26] cdoktor19: multilib is probably easier then unless you want to seperate 32 bit apps from 64 and since you don't seem to care... [04:27] oh [04:28] cdoktor19, that's a bit involved. probably best if you stick with 32 bit first, IMHO. [04:28] any issues on updating 10.10 64 -> 11.04 64? [04:28] can i install effects on natty? [04:28] sounds the youtube video had effects [04:29] was that compiz or some other? [04:29] hi all, I have an 8.04 box (not mine) that is failing to login as tty1 is respawning whenever a user is being authenticated, /etc/events.d/tty1 looks ok script content and permissions /dev/tty1 also anyone got any ideas Im lost with this one [04:29] Spaz_Dynamic: just use manual partitioning, and make sure /home isn't formatted [04:29] how about copying pasting from the terminal with few keystrokes without having to do the ctrl+c +v thing? [04:30] ok i will fin some information about multilib and how to make a 32 bit chroot, are some one have a link to that page ? [04:30] cordoval_: I use middle click [04:30] I did think the ownerships of /bin/login were iffy but changing them on test boxes has no affect [04:31] anyone knows how to copy paste from the terminal to elsewhere? I highlight but then what? [04:31] my mouse has not middle click [04:31] or it does the wheel [04:31] ? [04:31] but is that the way? [04:31] HI! [04:31] cordoval_: maybe with the wheel, or maybe emulated by pressing both at the same time [04:31] oh yeah it works [04:31] cordoval_: click both buttons at once [04:31] thanks [04:31] the wheel is hard though [04:31] but simpler [04:31] [ 3551.409037] pwrdown, 0x6(BIT6)=ff [04:31] [ 3551.514123] rtl819xSE:No more TX desc@6, ring->idx = 0,idx = 0, skblen = 0x2a [04:31] [ 3551.514131] rtl819xSE:No more TX desc@6, ring->idx = 0,idx = 0, skblen = 0x2a [04:31] [ 3551.625982] rtl819xSE:No more TX desc@6, ring->idx = 0,idx = 0, skblen = 0x2a [04:31] [ 3551.625989] rtl819xSE:No more TX desc@6, ring->idx = 0,idx = 0, skblen = 0x2a [04:31] [ 3553.415696] pwrdown, 0x6(BIT6)=ff [04:31] [ 3555.415823] pwrdown, 0x6(BIT6)=ff [04:32] cdoktor19: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [04:32] #ubuntu+1 [04:32] anyone knows how to pastebinit but graphically or to specific service? from a browser or from other editor for instance? [04:32] i have that message, is that ok [04:32] pastebinit with the less clicks possible [04:33] any pitivi users in here? [04:33] cordoval_: what's wrong with the current behaviour? [04:33] too many clicks, for instance if I have to select some output from the terminal or a browser [04:34] I don't want to paste it into a document or open a browser page [04:34] but rather directly click and it saves the url on memory to paste [04:34] cordoval_: pastebinit doesn't involve clicks?? [04:34] pastebinit is limited to terminal and sometimes i cannot pipe the output that i want [04:34] I have to save to document first then use the command [04:34] ok as you all cant help me with my questio which is fine btw, can anyone point me to a reference for a red hat admins guide to ubuntu servers [04:34] a lot of keystrokes [04:35] Herbs, huh? LOL! [04:35] cordoval_: example? [04:35] Herbs, missed your question [04:35] man pastebinit > paste terminal [04:35] kellnola ubuntu bit like windows keep changing stuff lol [04:35] example? [04:35] dont you use pastebinit? [04:35] hello peeps [04:35] Herbs, oh my yes. It can be frustrating. [04:35] lols....peeps [04:35] php some command | pastebing does not work! [04:36] the whole init / upstart thing would be painful to an RHEL type [04:36] i like peeps [04:36] the mashmallow ones? ^^ me too! xD [04:36] kellnola basically Im a red hat based server admin and Ive been asked to look at an ubuntu server thats borked but theres a few differences in locations service names stuff like that [04:36] cordoval_: sometimes doing it like this works for me: pastebinit<(command etc etc) [04:36] Hello! ^_^ [04:37] Herbs, LTS is for production. The regular distro is actually pretty bleeding edge [04:37] hmmm oh thanks ChogyDan, how to change provider, I want pastie.org rather [04:37] <3 [04:37] /me does not have CTCP actions implemented yet :( [04:37] dunno [04:37] rats! [04:37] 9/11 was an inside job [04:37] Herbs, what's the prob. exactly?

Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [04:37] that works too [04:37] kellnola you cant get more bleeding edge than Fedora :D [04:38] :D [04:38] Quick question. Does anyone know how to get Gnome 3 for Ubuntu 11.04? [04:38] Herbs, yes but that is RPM ... ANATHEMA! [04:38] * hiexpo without the peeps you guys would be still using windows > click - n go doorknobs [04:38] :) [04:38] hey [04:38] rats! need to change to pastie.org [04:38] cordoval_: sometimes doing it like this works for me: pastebinit<(command etc etc) [04:39] so i was wondering if it is worth doing a reinstall tomorrow with official if i have beta 2 running right now? [04:39] !final [04:39] If you install a development version of Ubuntu Natty and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 11.04 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [04:39] kellnola its just the thinks like no chkconfig I need an ubuntu guide for red hat users :D [04:39] !fresh | Ketterer [04:40] Herbs you can install chkconfig but it doesn't work with everything [04:40] Ketterer, fresh install is always better [04:40] I know but this aint my box [04:41] and the problem is tty1 dies whenever you try to login [04:41] ya i should do fresh ehh thats what i figured ( i have never like upgrade) i used it back on like 6.10 > 7.04 and it screwed me over so iv never liked it but i wasnt sure if it was better now [04:41] rats! can someone knows how to change provide for pastebinit? [04:41] to pastie.org or is it hardcoded? [04:42] thanks guys [04:42] have a goo night [04:42] rww_, everyone thinks new is betta hehe > I will stick to my 10.04 > screaming fast with 2.6.38.5 kernal [04:42] Herbs, you can use update-rc.d [04:42] j [04:43] rats! === IdleOne is now known as Narwhal [04:43] hiexpo: my 10.10 LTS is much faster :P [04:43] kellnola even if its using upstart for tty1 ? [04:44] 10.10 LTS isn't real. [04:44] rcmaehl, i get boot at 34 secs :) and 10.10 is not lts :) [04:44] ^ [04:44] udo update-rc.d -f daemon remove <- like chkconfig daemon off [04:45] arent all LTS .04 [04:45] Herbs, yes but not all .04 are LTS [04:46] howcome numlock is on, though my keyboard indicator is off? [04:46] kellnola cool I will give it a go as they have alot of custom start up scripts [04:47] another day though Ive spent long enough [04:47] Hi there, ubuntu was taking unusually longer to load and I did a reset, right before the computer turned of I saw that the ubuntu screen came up, therefore everything was fine. However, after restarting it, it goes straight into bash. [04:47] Any suggestion? [04:47] renancoelho: any errors? is gdm running? [04:48] gdm? I am really new to ubuntu, although I love it. I am able to run commands and cd places.. [04:48] new slack out [04:49] when you get dumped to bash if you type init 3 what happens? [04:49] didn't try, it said to put a command and when I did it, it would say it could not find it... [04:49] sorry Im a server admin with red hat based it might be init 5 [04:50] whatever the run level for gui is [04:50] I had to boot into windows... [04:50] Herbs: init 5 is i thought X session init 3 is terminal [04:50] each one is gui? [04:50] init 1 single user and 2/6 reboot/shutdown (i think) [04:50] hey, how long until 11.04 is available for download? [04:51] init 1 is single user 3 is CLI 6 is reboot I think 5 is gui [04:51] I am a single user, will init 1 load single user with gui? [04:51] Herbs: yeah sounds right [04:51] what is the effect like mac minimizing and getting windows opened? [04:51] or just command line? [04:51] renancoelho: no [04:52] is that water effect? [04:52] i want to make a SSH shell for a friend. what settings do I enter for his username? [04:52] hi [04:52] how to set up the mac like effect? for windows? [04:52] like User ID or shell access... just /bin/sh? [04:52] gueriLLaPunK: whatever you want? just make sure he has a shell and preferably a home dir so he doesn't get thrown in / [04:52] how to set up the mac like effect? for windows? [04:52] no single user dont work like that if you want its the alternate of windows safe mode [04:52] anyone? [04:52] anyone know how to get 32-bit compatibiliy working again in natty? i tried reinstalling it and that did not fix it [04:52] hi [04:52] anybody knows what time is the 11.04 coming out? [04:53] it is working on me [04:53] BC_: install the 32 bit libs? [04:53] how to set up the mac like effect? for windows [04:53] for windows on natty? [04:53] I want to know how to remove the "sudo" authority from the first (default) user in ubuntu ? [04:53] cordoval_: stop repeating...if someone knows they'll answer [04:53] Herbs: oh.. ok.. I will try init 5 then... if not I will log back to windows... Thanks! [04:53] snow_us: visudo [04:53] I couldn't find the name in /etc/sudoers ! [04:53] sorry just wanted to repeat the effect that I saw on youtube natty demo [04:53] !natty | MandoJM [04:53] MandoJM: Natty Narwhal is the codename for Ubuntu 11.04, due April 28 2011. Help and support (only) in #ubuntu+1. Natty is beta and is not currently intended for production systems. [04:53] it had like mac windows dynamics [04:53] really nice [04:53] i wonder if that is compiz or not [04:54] or which values because mine seems too fast or it is not there [04:54] google it [04:54] The 11.04 will be on friday [04:54] what is the name of that effect?

[04:54] the 32 bit libs are already installed and were working up until a about a week ago more or less and then i started getting the wrong elf class errors after one of the updates [04:54] cordoval_: you mean the "genie" like effect when minimizing? that is a compiz effect, but i can't tell you the name of it at the moment (running kde) [04:54] apprentice3d: nope 11.04 later on Thursday [04:54] yes [04:54] genie effect [04:54] is called? [04:54] wow [04:54] snow_us: hmm...remove it from group wheel/sudo? [04:55] cordoval_: magic lamp [04:55] could someone please help me to resolve this issue: (iscsiadm: iscsid is not running. Could not start it up automatically using the startup command in /etc/iscsi/iscsid.start. Please check that the file exists or that your init scripts have started iscsid) [04:55] magic lamp thanks! [04:55] celthunder: what happens if there is no user that has sudo authority :))) ? [04:56] snow_us: you use su [04:56] it does not show up though, sometime I had to do? [04:56] sebsebseb: you're right - 28th is Thursday [04:56] there is no user called su [04:56] snow_us: if you don't set a root pw or forget to just login to single user mode and set one [04:56] snow_us: su is a command to switch user [04:56] http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/08/get-the-os-x-genie-effect-in-compiz-easily/ [04:56] ok [04:57] apprentice3d: 28th is today in my time zone [04:57] any eta for release? === Laggg is now known as Y2k|rootz [04:57] MadDecent: no set time, will be announced on the ubuntu-announce list and in #ubuntu-release-party [04:58] Sebsebseb: for me there are still less than 3 minutes :) [04:58] MadDecent: sometime on the 28th ^_^ [04:58] for me less than 2 [04:58] haha same here [04:58] AbuMaia: well nearly had five hours here of the 28th, kind of sad that I don't feel tired though in a way, because I been awake quite a lot of hours now [04:59] AbuMaia: wrong one [04:59] apprentice3d: see above [04:59] I think they should have put a countdown or something because my notebook is now clean and waiting for official 11.04 [04:59] apprentice3d: no no count down, because no one knows for suer when it will be out yet [04:59] there was a countdown, only in days though [04:59] is there a way to show the text during boot? (natty beta 2.. for now :)) === Y2k|rootz is now known as Laggg|rootz [05:00] apprentice3d: all we know is it's coming out on the 28th in most time zones, some time [05:00] what time zone do they run on [05:00] rats! i followed instructions and got it messed up [05:00] PST MST CST or EST [05:00] I want to say Pacific [05:00] but I'm not sure [05:00] xkemix: There is no set time or timezone. [05:00] xkemix: It'll be released sometime between now and when it stops being April 18th everywhere on the planet.

[05:04] tainted [05:04] rww_, what's the differences in packages between the natty you can have now, and the natty that comes out later today? [05:04] semitones: The natty that comes out later today contains fixes for any last-minute bugs they find. [05:04] semitones: This actually happened in 10.10 and probably other releases, btw. I'm not being theoretical :) [05:04] if it couldnt find init it wouldnt boot [05:05] check the users path [05:05] rww_, bugfixes since the last freeze? how much time elapsed since then? :P [05:05] anyone on how to get the magic lamp rightly? [05:05] old instructions don't work [05:05] boots to bash... [05:05] check the users path how? sorry really new to this.. [05:05] semitones: I haven't been paying attention to the release schedule this cycle, so I dunno how they're doing it. There's no RC this time, so I assume it's different somehow. [05:06] echo $PATH === Hunterm_ is now known as Hunterm [05:06] Then what do I do with that? [05:06] rww_, huh, cool! [05:06] If I have an ISO of 10.10, but nothing to burn it to... Can I somehow get it to boot from it? [05:07] i'm attempting to re-install 10.04..previous install was exploited via remote connection..via landscape i'm assumeing [05:07] Ziber: do you have a flash memory stick? [05:07] Ziber: how about a usb? [05:07] create a start-up usb stick useing that iso [05:07] only works if your pc support booting from usb [05:07] renancoelho: no... i dont :( i know i could've. [05:07] and mine does. [05:07] rats! nothing on genie effect [05:08] does /etc/init exist? [05:08] yes [05:08] ?? [05:08] Ziber: currently running windows, ubuntu, or something else? [05:08] quit [05:08] And you need to make sure that the bios is set to boot from the usb before the HDD [05:08] Ziber: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download it shows step by step. [05:09] A guy in my college class ran into that today [05:09] Herbs: not sure. it would'nt let me cd to some of the folders... [05:09] I installed tasksel to install a LAMP server. But when i start up tasksel and chose LAMP it just closes. Could someone help me with this? [05:09] renancoelho: I have the ISO, I need a way to boot from it without... having anything to install it on. [05:09] Herbs: if it is, then what should I do? [05:09] try sudo [05:10] it doesn't work with out sudo [05:10] I did... wouldn't let me... [05:10] you may need to be root to access certain folders [05:10] Ziber: if you're currently running Windows, try Wubi [05:10] I'm not :( [05:10] what are you running? [05:10] doesn't let me sudo. [05:10] Ziber: What is currently on the computer? [05:10] Also, unrelated question, how can I set terminal to support UTF-8? [05:10] Jordan_U: Well, an older version of ubuntu because thats the only ubuntu CD I had. [05:10] Ziber: It should by default. What problem are you having? [05:10] I want 10.10 [05:10] Ziber: What version? [05:10] define doesent let you sudo [05:11] Jordan_U: 8.04, iirc. [05:11] I love sudo, even works in scripts :D [05:11] Ziber: try just upgrading in place [05:11] Ziber: You can upgrade directly to 10.04, and from 10.04 upgrade to 10.10. [05:11] RRU but you have to give your password to those scripts [05:11] question for y'all: running 10.10 with wine 1.3, I installed the game Rift, everything works great except when game runs it's ~5 fps and all of the textures are black. Any idea? I've googled like a madman and can't figure it out. === Kasjopaja23 is now known as Kasjopaja [05:11] Jordan_U: do-release-upgrade? just looks like it'll take forever. [05:12] Ziber: that or go buy a cd--take your pick [05:12] Herbs I know === Kasjopaja is now known as Guest73959 [05:12] keys and root ftw :D [05:12] Ziber: It will, especially with the mirrors being hit heavily by users upgrading to 11.04 (which will be released some time in the next 24 hours). [05:12] aight [05:12] Nothing happens when I sudo, usually asks for the password.. but here nothing. [05:12] Jordan_U: Coupled with the fact that I'm on a college network and the bw sucks here. [05:13] how to restablish a component if i have messed it up? [05:13] unistall and reinstall it? [05:13] My college has the major networking [05:13] Ziber: You can also boot from the 10.10 iso with it just stored on your hard drive. Though that's more difficult to do with 8.04's grub legacy it's still possible. [05:13] rats! [05:13] renancoelho: What are you tryint to do? [05:13] just boot the gui... [05:13] Jordan_U: How would I go about doing that? [05:14] renancoelho: You have a broken system? [05:14] do you know the difference between absolute and relative paths? [05:14] I turned of the comp while it was loading the gui and now it wont load... [05:14] how to boot the gui? [05:14] rats! [05:14] Herbs: not really. [05:14] sorry to ask but I work with some dim shits [05:14] renancoelho: What was it doing whtn you turned it off? [05:14] what name of party channel? [05:15] renancoelho: Installing something? [05:15] usr13: just loading the gui... [05:15] usr13: it was taking a bit longer than usual and I thought it got stuck.. [05:15] renancoelho: What does it do now? What screen are you left with when it's done bootingz? [05:16] renancoelho: Oh, it may have been doing fsck (file system check / repair). [05:16] bash.. i think.. it loads up a bunch of stuff and at the end it says no init could be found. [05:16] that aint good [05:16] yeahh i think so... [05:16] rats! it was just animation but i messed it up [05:17] wonder if I should uninstall and resintall compiz to resolve [05:17] so you cant cd to /etc/init whats the message displayed? [05:17] usr13: i did see fsck somewhere. [05:17] Herbs: it just says it can't. [05:17] Herbs: This has nothing to do with $PATH, his root filesystem wasn't mounted properly and he's at an initramfs / busybox shell. [05:17] renancoelho: Ok, well fsck run periodically to check and repair filesystem errors. [05:17] bad news you need to rebuild that box [05:18] Herbs: is that because I turned of while in fsck? [05:18] how to reestablished after compiz –replace & [05:18] boot in single user and run an fsck again [05:18] renancoelho: if it was performing filesystem ops, definitely [05:19] it might have been moved to lost+found [05:19] Herbs: The initramfs doesn't contain fsck. [05:19] so should I fsck? is that the command: fsck? [05:19] jordan and? === chris_ is now known as Guest72994 [05:19] she turned the box off during an fsck [05:20] Herbs: And so he won't be able to "boot into single user mode and run fsck". fsck is on his root filesystem, which isn't mounting properly at boot.

[06:07] #ubuntu+1 [06:07] nishanth: /join [06:07] thanks [06:07] hey what time in UTC +10 is ubuntu scheduled to be released [06:08] theGreatDane, type the command lastlog and you find out ayecee [06:08] locodir-user: when it's ready [06:08] i don't know, is the announcement actually scheduled at a particular time? [06:08] tensorpudding: no [06:08] hi maco [06:08] tensorpudding: thanks im not sure [06:08] how to reinstall unity? [06:08] anytime on the 28th. [06:08] it'll be released when all the CDs come out right [06:08] and no sooner [06:08] sudo apt-get install unity? [06:08] cordoval_: this channel is not for natty [06:08] cordoval_: why does it need to be reinstalled [06:09] cordoval_: if you ran some random executable from the internet and overwrote a chunk of your compiz, i really dont think reinstalling unity is going to fix that [06:09] because I missed the left and top panels [06:09] missed? [06:09] guys will i be able to install gnome shell 3 on ubuntu 11.04 [06:09] cordoval_, odds are you did not uninstall unity all you would need to do is logout and at login you select unity again [06:09] just tell me how to reinstall it please [06:09] reinstalling won't change any configuration you might have made [06:09] BATMAN_: there's a PPA. also this channel isnt for 11.04 [06:09] this is by design [06:09] maco, he's using natty and crossposting here [06:09] cordoval_: sudo apt-get install --reinstall unity [06:09] im using aide, and i set it to notify me about 'atime' changes, however it appears that opening a file doesn't change the atime [06:09] question, how do i properly remove a ppa from ubuntu? added that xmbc ppa and now its giving me all types of errors [06:10] bazhang: i know [06:10] if i open a file over winscp for example [06:10] cordoval_: please stop asking 11.04 questions in here [06:10] sorry ...

[06:10] ty kindly @ vibhav [06:10] tensorpudding: please ask in the natty channel [06:10] your welcome [06:11] how to get dns names, hostname.ubuntu.com [06:11] meh [06:11] ya [06:11] u r not responding so [06:11] are you really going to wait until the announcement before you stop telling people to join #ubuntu+1? [06:11] is it out yet [06:11] ls_: no [06:11] sorry wrong channel [06:11] madhu, you want to keep a database or simply have the current computer resolve the names correctly ? [06:11] lapion: nothing [06:11] yes [06:11] madhu: questions are to be answered by whomever can. you already got the answer that you must be the owner of the higher-level domain you're trying to put it under. you dont own ubuntu.com so you can't [06:12] tensorpudding: I imagine many people here have not yet used natty, so it'd be hard to support. [06:12] madhu : - use network tools in System -> Administration [06:12] that won't change tomorrow [06:12] hi indians [06:12] madhu: buy a domain name. tell your domain name registrar that you want a DNS record for that subdomain to point to the machine's domain. [06:12] tensorpudding: not overnight, no. [06:12] madhu, yes to which question [06:12] how to be the owner of *.com [06:12] you need to own the .com [06:12] how to copy files from terminal to cd on ubuntu [06:12] madhu: buy it [06:12] madhu: i buy my domain names from 123-reg.co.uk [06:13] is it out yet?

[06:14] it's like renting a storage unit [06:14] madhu, you need a local dns-server [06:14] mythri first what does pwd show [06:14] illmortal, handbrake [06:14] and the domain name you want has to not actually be used [06:14] ayecee I need one that convert MKVto avi [06:14] already [06:14] madhu, or bind [06:14] ok new problem [06:14] how to create a local dns server [06:14] illmortal: good luck with that [06:15] easy install bind and create the zone entries [06:15] bazhang, handbrake?

[06:15] mythri cdrecord dev=/dev/hdc speed=24 driveropts=burnfree -dao -data /path/to/files [06:15] madhu, but you have a small amount of suffixes you should simple create a hosts file and distribute..

[06:18] Glaceon: does anything appear on screen before it reaches that point? [06:18] it's April 28, can I upgrade now? or is it STILL beta? [06:19] does gnome-shell 1 provide ALT+TAB feature? Because in mine, it doesn't seem to work [06:19] vibhav, the files are on ubuntu drive [06:19] cbart: still beta until it's formally released. [06:19] mythri is the drive mounted rw?

[06:20] IS it safe to uninstall FGLRX? [06:20] vibhav: i dont have a windows box [06:20] Glaceon: hmm. without grub showing up, about all you could do is try installing again at this point. [06:20] grrr..... [06:20] hmm.. installed Handbrake-cli and it's not even in my applications menu. even tried opening it via terminal.. claims it doesn't exist. [06:20] vibhav: as i said twice already, saying that to you was the result of accidentally copying what someone ELSE said [06:20] vibhav, wat can i do now [06:21] illmortal: dpkg -L packagename <-- will list all files installed by the package [06:21] mythri : - Ill talk to you first and then to maco" [06:21] Guys, Does gnome-shell provide ALT+TAB feature?

[06:21] Herbs: no [06:21] vibhav, ok [06:22] Bruce_Wayne: natty support is still in #ubuntu+1 at this time [06:22] Herbs: you give it the packagename directly and then can grep for a file within it [06:22] maco : - I thought you changed your name to maco.....oops.....lolz [06:22] so do we have a timeframe for tomorrow? [06:22] IanWizard-Mobile: Natty will be released at some point while it is 28 April in at least one timezone on the planet Terra in the system Sol [06:22] IanWizard-Mobile: not at this time. join #ubuntu-release-party for breaking news. [06:22] mythri : - Do you have windows installed? [06:22] maco ah ok cool [06:23] maco: that's unreasonably optimistic :) [06:23] you're right, stupid question [06:23] Hello everyone! [06:23] see you tomorrow. :) [06:23] ayecee: it's the standard line for the last 4 years, and it's held true ;-) [06:23] Any idea when Ubuntu will release? [06:23] uhm.. how do I open the HandBrakeCLI UI? [06:23] nashj: Natty will be released at some point while it is 28 April in at least one timezone on the planet Terra in the system Sol [06:23] --help doesn't give me much info. [06:23] vibhav, yea i have a windows installed [06:24] illmortal: cli would include it doesnt have a gui..... [06:24] illmortal, cli means command line interface, there is no gui [06:24] illmortal: erm, s/include/imply/ [06:24] illmortal, you dont, its cli [06:24] maco, you have that in your clipboard don't you. [06:24] mythri : - Can you boot to Windows on your Compueter [06:24] IanWizard-Mobile: yes [06:24] maco: I'm pretty sure it's slipped a few days in some years, but I don't have an example offhand. [06:24] oh lawd. [06:24] mythri : - Can you boot to Windows on your Computer [06:24] release slipped two months once :3 [06:24] illmortal, you want gtk [06:24] ayecee: 6.06 was moved by a few months, but that was decided a lot earlier than 24h before [06:24] good for you, we need someone to fend off annoying people like me. [06:24] maco: Yes, that is true, But any idea in how many more hours will the release be scheduled? [06:25] nashj, no [06:25] ya i need an interface... I tried using mencoder.. I can't access my external hard drive because it's named, "My Book" (with a space) [06:25] nashj: what is this "scheduled" of which you speak? [06:25] and I cannot rename my external HDD [06:25] Is the 11.04 release delayed? It's already almost the 28th in PST!?! [06:25] is it out yet?? [06:25] nashj: it's ready when all the CDs come out not-broken [06:25] what1: no [06:25] illmortal, its handbrake-gtk [06:25] ok bazhang [06:25] illmortal: put a \ before the space, problem solved [06:25] maco: :) I mean around what time will Natty be release. Any idea? [06:26] nashj: when it's ready [06:26] what1 it's two hours until the 28th pst [06:26] really? ok.. let me check. so i would type My\ Book? [06:26] maco: lol! ok... thanks [06:26] nashj: i cannot predict the future to determine when the builds will work [06:26] nashj, no one knows stop asking [06:26] the ops should add 'no its not out yet' to the topic ;) not that it would help. [06:26] nashj: get me a crystal ball if you want a better answer! [06:26] nashj: better yet, join #ubuntu-release-party for breaking news [06:26] illmortal: yes [06:26] velcroshooz, the topic already addresses that [06:26] ok ^^ [06:26] imortal you could change the label on the drive and remount it or just remount it to a mount point without spaces [06:26] or use "my book" [06:27] anyone knows what time Ubuntu 11.04 will be released [06:27] I'm wondering why I have plugins activated in firefox such as DivX Web Player, iTunes Application Detecter, QuickTime Plugin-in and Shockwave Flash. I was hoping and thought that they are not available to Ubuntu. Are they fake and wrapped to totem or vlc? [06:27] Genghiz: Natty will be released at some point while it is 28 April in at least one timezone on the planet Terra in the system Sol [06:27] Im really tempted to write this bash script to tell you lol] [06:27] Genghiz: breaking news in #ubuntu-release-party [06:27] maco that can be +- 12 hours [06:28] Genghiz: yep [06:28] Genghiz: actually i think its +13/-12 [06:28] is the 11.04 torrent out yet?

[06:28] :( [06:28] maco, :) [06:29] ok one last question.. the video is 720p HD quality... should the bitrate still stay @ 1200? [06:30] illmortal: that's a fairly technical question, and should probably be directed at a forum surrounding the converting application you're using. [06:30] ok [06:31] illmortal: I had thought that 1500 was typical for xvid encoding of movies, at least. [06:31] hm... interesting.. I'll test both 1200 and 1500 :) [06:31] thank you guys for assisting me.. that was fast and helpful :D [06:32] Is the 11.04 release delayed? It's already almost the 28th in PST!?!

It would come off as more friendly. [06:43] I'm installing ubuntu via wubi, I would like to give the system 80GB but it will only let me give at the most 30. How do I do this? [06:43] quit [06:43] exit [06:44] jslozier: try /exit [06:44] or /quit [06:45] proq: i haven't seen that before. is that a limit from wubi itself, for some reason? [06:46] ayecee: I can't imagine why. I have 119 MB free and the system is only 2 days old so I'm sure it isn't fragmented [06:46] How to get Fingerprint Scanners Work in ubuntu? [06:46] are we able to download the 11.04 official release yet? [06:46] I guess that was 119GB free [06:46] anthony_2409: no. breaking news in #ubuntu-release-party [06:46] 119GB free, yes [06:46] anthony_2409, you have to wait for 24 hours [06:46] at least!

(though itd be PDT right now so -7)... imagine in UTC-12! [06:51] yeah :) [06:52] 30 more potential hours [06:52] When is 11.04 released because I am kinda hoping to have it up and running today [06:53] Bob___: sometime before it stops being April 28th somewhere on the planet [06:53] happy ubuntu release eve!

Curses! [06:54] maco: yeah right [06:55] theGreatDane, troll. (anything not bashing windows is trolling) [06:55] although that would explain the release time tendencies [06:55] maco: you read this in a book or just make it up as you go along? [06:55] theGreatDane: I'm more productive on ubuntu, for a variety of reasons :) [06:55] histo: what? proq asked what time it is in britain *right now* [06:55] hey, how can I make all of my function keys perform their action without needing to have fn pressed? (i.e invert the fn button). thanks! [06:55] histo: a little fom column A, a little from column B [06:55] histo: so i rounded to the nearest hour... which is 7am. fine so its 6:55am technically, but close enough [06:56] argh [06:56] aroman: set keyboard shortcut preferences to what ever you want. [06:56] dc'ed [06:56] histo: though i have no idea why i'm doing the `date` command's job [06:56] maco: they dont' fly to london for a release just fyi [06:56] aroman, if you ever figure it out let me know. I want to kill HP so badly [06:56] histo: well then i'd lose the ability to use Fwhatever keys [06:56] histo: so pgraner did what? swam there? [06:56] aroman, I have gotten used to it overtime... [06:56] smw: its just lame though [06:57] histo: a few key people do go to london for it [06:57] i need two hands to do something i should be able to do effortlessly [06:57] aroman, apparently "no one uses the function keys" [06:57] anyone know that time natty is released? [06:57] >: [06:57] aroman, agreed [06:57] aroman: then not quite sure what you are trying to do? [06:57] BarbaraBush_: before its the 29th in the last timezone [06:57] BarbaraBush: before the 29th [06:57] BarbaraBush, when it happens, it happens [06:57] maco: the 28th here [06:57] "When it's done" [06:57] aroman: you can't have one key have two functions. You have to use a modifier like the Fn key [06:57] BarbaraBush_: its not the 28th in california yet [06:58] it is done, was done yesterday lol [06:58] histo: i want the modifier to be pressed all the time [06:58] and un-press when I actually press it [06:58] BarbaraBush: contrary to what your family believes the Bush's are not the centre of the universe :) [06:58] BarbaraBush_: nor in the very last timezone, which is utc-12. still got 30 hours before the 28th ends! [06:58] hehe im not in cali :P [06:58] e.g, [06:58] There haven't been updates for a couple of days now 11.04 has been done. [06:58] i know i was making fun of the duke nukem thing [06:58] Narwhal: thats why im in EU :P [06:58] Just download the daily iso if you people want it so bad [06:58] so where do i go to gripe about usability? [06:58] histo: wrong, I got 40 packages updated earlier today [06:58] tanath: devs [06:58] histo: there've been respins of the ISOs going on and language pack rebuilds and stuff [06:58] if I hit f1 which both maximizes and toggles volume mute, I want mute to be _default_ [06:59] I came up with a good idea to beet the fact that all the apt mirrors will be overloaded. I will setup an ec2 instance with apt-cacher and download from the ubuntu ec2 mirror. What are the chances the ec2 mirror will be overloaded? [06:59] histo, that a channel? :P [06:59] aroman: then change your keyboard shortcut preferences [06:59] beat* [06:59] i'll just DL a torrent lol [06:59] histo: like I said, then I lose the ability to ever call fullscreen with a hotkey [06:59] AustinWolfclaw, yeah, but you still can't install other packages [06:59] 11.04 looks to be a bigger disappointment than i feared it would be [06:59] aroman: no you can assign that a different hotkey [06:59] I'm not on ubuntu... [06:59] aroman: but do what you want. [06:59] histo: hmmph [06:59] I'm on windoes, i'm DLing the ISO [07:00] ok so i have been trying for 5 days to get help in #lubuntu with setting up a composite manager [07:00] torrent for the win [07:00] this is a very simple task [07:00] err i mean i'm going to dl the iso torrent [07:00] who's bright idea was it to make windows maximize at the top of the screen, making it impossible to put windows there? [07:00] I want to invert the fn key's function [07:00] AustinWolfclaw, but do you plan to install anything? [07:00] tanath: well they aren't going to completely change the interface because you don't like it [07:00] tanath, how so? 11.04 has up to date packages and an new kernel [07:00] AustinWolfclaw, the mirrors slow to a crawl [07:00] so my question is, what kind of performance difference will i see between 10.04, 10.10, and 11.04 [07:00] invert from Fn to Nf? [07:00] tanath: just don't drag windows past the panel and they won't maximize [07:00] kaatta: almost none at all. [07:00] smw: you know, I think I'll write a wrapper that intercepts all Fwhatevery keys and maps them to my liking. [07:00] ah GUI noob :P [07:00] tanath, give it a bit of space. it will work [07:01] histo, have a look on youtube. i'm hardly the only one with issues [07:01] i know that 10.10 is a bit laggy @ times on this machine [07:01] aroman: please stop [07:01] i could knock that out in a few hours this weekend. [07:01] histo: ....? [07:01] histo: thats a compiz setting [07:01] tanath: I don't have those issues [07:01] aroman, what you really need is something that makes the fn key always pressed [07:01] tanath: if you don't drag it past the top panel it won't maximize [07:01] lubuntu runs very well, but i am tired of not being able to get any help w/ setting it up [07:01] tanath: you can turn off the maximise on screen edge by changing your screen edge bindings in compiz [07:01] smw: well maybe, but I think it ought to invert [07:01] tanath: further you drag the bigger it gets [07:01] tanath run gnome classic instead of unity, solved [07:01] aroman, when you press the fn key, it should then be un-fn [07:01] so i was hoping 10.04 would run smoother on this hardware [07:01] histo, nutsfornatty hope so. i haven't tested ubuntu's implementation of it yet. i presumed it'd work like my win7 experience, which i hated [07:01] aroman, yeah [07:01] smw: precisely [07:01] from what I'm understanding, Unity will only be on Ubuntu and not the other flavors? [07:01] i'll do just that :) [07:01] aroman, I am thinking of how caps lock works [07:01] maco, thanks. i was wondering about that [07:02] AustinWolfclaw, correct [07:02] aroman: is this a mac? there's a tool somewhere for reversing their use [07:02] I've got a question that doesn't pertain to when natty is coming out. Who wants to hear it? [07:02] tanath: you hvae to go passed it as i've stated but you'll see for yourself [07:02] !ask | Spaz_Dynamic [07:02] Spaz_Dynamic: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [07:02] maco: no, but regardless, that's a software setting in OS X [07:02] BarbaraBush_, actually, i like a number of things about gnome 3, except that it also does the maximize thing, and has eliminated applet support which i need [07:02] aroman: and in ubuntu... [07:02] maco: oh it is? [07:02] where? [07:02] histo, mhm. thx [07:02] any AustinWolfclaw can you see why torrent does not help? What they need is to have apt use torrents! [07:02] aroman: yeah, we have a way to handle mac keyboards. lemme look it up again [07:02] smw: It's called humor. Everyone is asking about natty. =P [07:03] maco: oh right, that actually makes some sense [07:03] smw: I think there's an "apt-torrent" package that does that. [07:03] I happen to have a mac with a mac keyboard. [07:03] #ubuntu-release-party would be more appropriate rather than here [07:03] Spaz_Dynamic, ok, not very funny though... I was kind of excited [07:03] Narwhals narwhals swimming in the ocean, causing a commotion, cuz they're pretty awesome [07:03] ayecee, but it is not in general use... [07:03] anyone know if i'll be able to use the win+a shortcut (compiz function) in unity? [07:03] smw: and techinically, I didn't ask to ask a qustion, or ask who knew the answer, I asked who wanted to hear a question that wasn't "when is natty coming out" [07:04] Spaz_Dynamic, ok [07:04] * smw raises his hand [07:04] actually [07:04] how many computers all over the world are now running ubuntu === BarbaraBush_ is now known as Barbarabush [07:04] 12.

Something like xfce or xubuntu etc... [07:05] smw: haha, alright. So, I'm wanting to make a bootable USB for ubuntu, kubuntu, and xubuntu. Is it possible to make one stick bootable for all 3 live "CDs" It is 8GB so there is more than enough room. [07:05] tanath, haha,right and simple one :) [07:05] If I'm on 10.10 is it possible to upgrade to 11.04 yet, or are thtose packages not out yet? [07:05] kaatta: there is help.ubuntu.com has low memory systems options [07:05] nutsfornatty, ive used gimp and photoshop, i prefer gimp by alot, ii just dont like a few bugs ive run into that have cost me 8 hrs of work [07:05] Roasted: they are out [07:05] aroman: dunno if thatll work on a non-apple keyboard though. experiment time i guess [07:05] histo, appreciate it bro [07:06] histo: I wasn't off topic, I was just using an interesting segue. =P [07:06] * Barbarabush is a very strong man!

Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [07:06] maco: it won't, the module isn't loaded. but I guess I could digaround and see if I could modprobe it somehow [07:06] ive tried xubuntu, and lubuntu, and had high hopes for lubuntu but lxde seems to be lacking too much that im used to with ubuntu [07:06] perhaps not interesting so much as long and slightly convoluted. [07:06] !ot rww [07:06] <^Phantom^> how do i open 'modules' ? [07:06] histo, by chance if you upgrade, do you know offhand how much extra hard drive space it uses? I ask because I only have 2gb left on my root partiion. I dont want to attempt it if itll tank it :( [07:06] Spaz_Dynamic, you might have a look at startup disk creator... dunno if it supports multiple though [07:06] ouyes, one googol (10^100) [07:06] ^Phantom^: what are you trying to do exactly? [07:06] !ot | rww [07:06] rww: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [07:06] Spaz_Dynamic, I would say not. If I really wanted to put work into it, I would get the alternative install cds and combine them [07:06] kaatta: I have not tried it but many swear by lubuntu: http://lubuntu.net/ [07:07] <^Phantom^> see if i have !snd-pcm-oss in modules [07:07] smw, how would I do that then? [07:07] <^Phantom^> for a friend [07:07] kaatta, i think the basic gui is much better in gimp. photoshop is a bloated mess. tasks dont "flow" intuitively [07:07] ^Phantom^: well you can lsmod | grep snd-pcm to see if it's running. If not try locate snd-pcm-oss [07:07] nutsfornatty, gimp needs a lot of gui improvements though [07:07] Andre_Gondim, im on lubuntu now, i have been sitting in #lubuntu for 5 days asking for help getting a composite manager running (google is no help at all) [07:08] nutsfornatty, like 3 overlapping windows? >.< [07:08] Spaz_Dynamic, I know very little about ubuntu's usb thing. Does it run a iso in loopback? [07:08] ^Phantom^: and I believe it's snd_pcm_oss [07:08] nutsfornatty, the biggest issue i have with gimp, is on really large projects, the 'undo history' gets so long tthat it will freeze and crash in windows [07:08] tanath, true. i could see it being the pixelmator (on osx) type killer app for ubuntu with some refinement [07:08] kaatta: What did you miss? [07:08] kaatta, there's also the ubuntu forums and askubuntu.com [07:08] nutsfornatty, i havent really used it in linux yet [07:08] why isn't mangler in the Ubuntu repos. [07:09] smw, I get a number for accessing ubuntuforums 4581000 ips per day [07:09] Spaz_Dynamic, for combining them, you get the alternative install cds, you look at the "pool" directory, and you combine them (they have the same file structure, some files are the same) [07:09] smw: I don't know that myself. I know that the utility unetbootin uses 7zip to extract the images and then makes a modification to the MBR it [07:09] Why isn't ubuntu out yet! [07:09] i dont mind the windows. no worse than adobes floating bars [07:09] ? [07:09] andrew_46, i cant find a composite manager that works properly for things like an app dock, and conky [07:09] hfx: because it's not [07:09] hfx: ubuntu has been out for years. =P [07:09] when 11.04 release [07:09] hfx, #ubuntu-release-party [07:09] Yes, thats what i mean [07:09] thanks [07:10] can upgrade now if you want [07:10] andrew_46, google doesnt show much of anything that i have found, and nothing that i found helpful @ all about what compositte manager i should even be looking for [07:10] cdoktor19, #ubuntu-release-party [07:10] x3464: There is PPA for mangler: https://launchpad.net/~mangler/+archive/mangler [07:10] Spaz_Dynamic, you then need to put all the preseed files in (with different names) and make menu entries [07:10] kaatta: What are the specs on the computer? [07:10] Spaz_Dynamic, It is not easy, however, you will learn alot about the debian installer and automated installs ;-) [07:10] kaatta: cairo compmgr is a good one that will work well [07:10] kaatta: if you don't want to run compiz [07:11] kaatta: Or you can try mudder I believe gnome3 is using that. [07:11] smw: interesting... I may look into it. [07:11] where can i download ubuntu 11.04?

[07:39] i want the 11.04 iso image [07:39] :( [07:39] econnell: we have a way to get packages into stable releases [07:39] !arb [07:39] histo: i don't care what the reasons for your packaging bureaucracy are... i write software... not packing stuff for operating system s [07:39] !party > forces [07:39] forces, please see my private message [07:39] bah [07:40] just because natty is released today doesn't mean it's already released and stable [07:40] econnell: it's not my policy. it's pretty much every distros [07:40] it just failed to login on pidgin ...HELP!! [07:40] !volunteer | econnell [07:40] histo: we've been in arch and gentoo for like 1.5 years [07:40] does anyone know what time 11.04 will be up for download? [07:40] same question here [07:40] econnell: submit your package to the application review board if you want to get it into a stable release [07:41] 2 minutes. [07:41] g105b: Natty will be released at some point while it is 28 April in at least one timezone on the planet Terra in the system Sol [07:41] g105b: party in #ubuntu-release-party [07:41] econnell: if a user of a distro wants a package. They will submit a deb/rpm/whatever distro plox to a development version so it can be added to official repositories [07:41] maco: hah.... did that about a year and a half ago [07:41] econnell: it didnt exist a year and a half ago [07:41] how to solve dependency conflict when two packages need a different version of some other package? [07:41] econnell: arch/gentoo development is faster because they are rolling releases [07:42] 1.0.0 was released on dec 2009, correct [07:42] was in repos on arch and gentoo within weks [07:42] *weeks [07:42] econnell: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PostReleaseApps/Process [07:42] econnell: i bet it was in aur in arch not official repos first [07:42] econnell: or testing [07:42] histo: yes... i understand that it's not as fast... but seriously... a year? seriously? [07:43] it is in aur [07:43] econnell: this process is 6 months old. i have no idea how you purport to have done it a year before it existed [07:43] and there is a maintainer [07:43] econnell: I don't know what you want. Distros that just accept any code without it being vetted or requested that would work out well. [07:43] when i released 1.2.2 two days ago, aur was updated within 3 hours [07:43] econnell: aur is a user repo like ppa's [07:43] econnell: your app is in ppa so I don't understand the issue [07:44] econnell: Slackware has a slightly older version: http://slackbuilds.org/repository/13.37/network/mangler/ [07:44] sure... but it's available without my having to do anything... now i've stopped making debs... it'll be someone elses problem... gentoo on the other hand is official [07:44] how to solve dependency conflict when two packages need a different version of some other package? [07:44] econnell: I agree with your stance. [07:45] histo: no... i've deleted my ppa because i don't want to maintain it and since i've provided debs, no one else has really cared [07:45] now that i'm not providing those, you're going to get complaints [07:45] nsmnmj: Are you installing via dpkg or apt ? [07:45] dpkg [07:45] econnell: then maybe nobody wants the app? [07:45] nsmnmj: What package? [07:45] econnell: it's a user based distro [07:45] histo: yeah... that's what it is... [07:46] econnell: community based distro [07:46] gtk [07:46] ubuntu users are the majority of our userbase [07:46] econnell: then one of them will make a ppa and produce a deb i'm sure. [07:46] econnell: if you dont want to maintain it, did you at least file a needs-packaging bug in ubuntu or (better) a work-needing bug in debian? [07:46] are you serious? do you even know what this app is and why ubuntu would be the primary userbase? [07:46] econnell: ventrillo client or something right? [07:46] maco: there's been a needs packaging bug for over a year [07:46] nsmnmj: Did you downmoad gtk? [07:46] econnell: i for one have not the slightest idea what app you are talking about [07:47] yes [07:47] from gtk.org [07:47] when new Ubuntu version will released? [07:47] all packages [07:47] (i also probably dont care if im getting on fine without it) [07:47] !part > wieldy_BIOS [07:47] wieldy_NIOS: today [07:47] !part > Callum__ [07:47] !party > wieldy_BIOS [07:47] wieldy_BIOS, please see my private message [07:47] heh [07:47] !party [07:47] Please remember that #ubuntu, #kubuntu, #xubuntu, and #edubuntu are support channels. To countdown to Natty release and then party once it happens, join #ubuntu-release-party - For in-person parties, see http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/global/744/detail/ [07:47] hell... look at our forums... we get messages like this constantly: I am giving Ubuntu 10.10 a test run on my main gaming rig (loving it so far ^.^) and i recently found Mangler which solved my biggest issue of not having a native ventrilo client for linux. I was astonished when i found out that there is a built-in applet for my Logitech G15 keyboard! [07:48] I was just about to ask his question, heh, oh well [07:48] ok-ok [07:48] econnell: I understand your complaint but that's how ever distro works [07:48] econnell: but really the bit about "they'll take on their own responsibility" ... the majority of ubuntu devs are volunteers taking care of the packages they care about and ignoring others. the ones being forced to take care of certain packages for their job are in the minority and since your software isnt part of the default install, they won't be forced to touch it at all [07:48] i dont' care how the distro works [07:49] econnell: okay [07:49] maco: wtf... seriously? do you want to take a second to amend that comment before i respond? [07:49] econnell: we're just trying to explain [07:49] hi. I am on 10.10 [07:49] !hi | sobersabre [07:49] econnell: not particularly. nobody except the canonical employees are REQUIRED to do anythng for ubuntu [07:50] do you think i make any money from this? do you think i have some personal gain to make? [07:50] econnell: fame? [07:50] econnell: dunno [07:50] econnell: you and every other linux dev [07:50] I want to change default resolution of the console. tried messing with grub2, but it has no effect. I think I need to do something related to fb, but I don't know how with grub2. [07:50] I added gfxpayload=1024x768x16 [07:50] is the new 11.04 due out today? i just checked the website and its still 10.10? [07:50] econnell: im just saying, nobody in particular has any responsibility to anyone else when it comes to what they package, unless its their *job*. its volunteer work. people can CHOOSE to take it or live it [07:50] sobersabre: add a vga mode to [07:50] DirtyDawg: some time later today [07:50] i've got projects way more important than this retarded project... my fame for this crap will never be important [07:50] ahh thx [07:51] histo: ok. trying... will be back. [07:51] econnell: please don't use offensive language [07:51] vbeinfo is supposed to print out the vga modes list ? [07:51] histo: the above line was for you :) [07:51] sorry [07:51] econnell: then perhaps the project needs to be picked up by someone else. That's how linux works I don't know what you want. [07:51] sobersabre: here let me get you link you need something like vga=771 [07:51] crap is considered offensive language? [07:51] econnell: by the way, ive scrolled back pretty far in the backlog to as far back as i can see you first talking, and i dont actually see you ever saying what software it is you want someone to package, so i guess i wont be picking it up as my next upload [07:52] i just want someone to package it so i don't have to spend an entire weekend building packages for debian based systems... that's all [07:52] nsmnmj: Gtk.org do not load, but it is not easy (or sane) to override version. [07:52] econnell: I would put a message on your forums asking for such [07:52] histo: I ran vbeinfo in grub shell. [07:52] there was no "771" in it [07:53] histo, econnell: and for that matter, just ask that it be packaged for *debian* -- no reason to package for debian and ubuntu separately. if its in debian, it'll be sync'd to ubuntu automatically [07:53] I wrote down and it looks like 0x117 (which would translate into 279) [07:53] whatever "it" is (i still don't know) [07:53] sobersabre: That means you cannot use 771 [07:53] qin: so can I use the hex. codes from vbeinfo output ? [07:53] x3464: it was comparison to the mentally disabled that was offensive [07:53] sobersabre: sorry just saw you are using grub2 read post#17 here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8024427 [07:54] histo: thanks, there. [07:54] while I boot my ubuntu 10.10 I get a *underscore* blinking for about 4 seconds, is there any way to replace it by ubuntu boot screen? [07:55] maco: how about redonkulous then. [07:56] x3464: there were other words used [07:56] x3464: scrollback [07:58] sobersabre: ok, either: setupcon, or use this (very good) how to: http://idyllictux.wordpress.com/2010/04/26/lucidubuntu-10-04-high-resolution-plymouth-virtual-terminal-for-atinvidia-cards-with-proprietaryrestricted-driver/ (it is about old problem, but usable). [08:00] histo: ya know... a good portion of my users are blind... and they use an ubuntu deriviative called vinux, which is a derivative of ubuntu for blind users. We have worked with them extensively within our app to make sure they had accessibility. All the while, we were able to maintain casual conversation and even *heaven forbid* make jokes about blindness... do you really take yourself that serious? [08:01] econnell: nope just don't understand what you want? or what your question is? perhaps there is a miss comunication === zyz is now known as Guest71727 [08:01] econnell: i still dont know what your software is, but i will say "thank you for actually bothering with accessibility, unlike just about everyone else" [08:01] econnell: I'm just trying to help and explain why it is the way it is. [08:02] maco: a ventrillo client. It's a voice chatting app. [08:02] econnell: i learned a few weeks ago that 10.10 wasnt installable at all if you're blind and 11.04 is only slightly installable === Guest71727 is now known as ztxyx === ztxyx is now known as xtzyz [08:04] hi everyone... can anyone suggest a walkthrough or guide to help take necessary steps to secure my ubuntu install. Just want to make sure I am making my install the most secure I can make it.. [08:04] join #c [08:04] maco: histo: incidentlally... vinux includes mangler by default.... because it's useful [08:04] econnell: is that the name of the software? [08:04] tuckaway: is it just a default install? [08:04] maco: mangler [08:04] vinux is the name of the OS [08:04] http://vinuxproject.org/ [08:05] hi there [08:05] hallo [08:05] econnell: yeah i know about vinux. ubuntu-accessibility team works with them. im asking "is mangler the name of the software you've been ranting about for the last half hour without naming it?" [08:05] tuckaway, is it just a simple desktop install? There is little to secure. [08:05] Histo -> yes just the default install.. i have been running ubuntu for about 18 months now and i need to learn how to secure my desktop [08:05] tuckaway: secure it from? [08:06] lock it down! [08:06] maco: i've name it, linked it, linked revu posts, linked debian bugs... fine... here: http://www.mangler.org/ [08:06] tuckaway, what do you mean "secure". What types of attacks are you afraid of? [08:06] econnell: thanks. like i said earlier, i scrolled back as far as i saw you talking, and the earliest i see is you telling qin that you deleted....something.. and then just usng "it" to refer to the software so... [08:07] just want to make sure i am not leaving anything open on the machine by default.... file sharing, ssh, things of that nature... [08:07] tuckaway, what would you do to "secure" windows? What types of attacks do you fear? [08:07] i installed an ubuntu server 10.04 a few days ago and i'm stocked with an pci express ethernet card with realtek chipset r8168 somebody could help me ? [08:07] tuckaway: well if you don't enable them then no. [08:07] maco: i'm frustrated by debian/ubuntu... i shouldn't take it out on you [08:07] tuckaway, those are not run by default [08:07] tuckaway, I don't even think those are installed by default [08:07] tuckaway: just normal things to do: don't install stuff you don't need, don't run stuff you needn't, check running services if they are configured as restrictive as possible and "use /dev/brain" [08:08] econnell: well i am an ubuntu dev, but in general we prefer *not* to add new packages just to ubuntu, rather they go through debian so A) more users get it and B) more hands to help [08:08] llutz_: most people set up /dev/brain > /dev/null [08:08] graph [08:08] proq: common mistake :( [08:08] tuckaway, if you were making a kiosk or something where you are afraid of people with physical access, there is alot to do. [08:09] alright maybe i am looking to much into this... [08:09] just 2 years into linux and learning [08:10] tuckaway, yes, probably. For public computers, it is way to easy to gain root if you have physical access. [08:10] hello [08:10] hallo [08:10] :) [08:10] so what time will the official release happen today ? [08:10] tuckaway, so a school, internet kiosk, etc, would need some work. [08:10] lwizardl: there is no set time [08:10] thanks smw [08:10] well... I am sorry for this question... but I read a lot of FAQs and... I couldn't solve my instalation's problem [08:10] any1 know what xinetd is? [08:10] its a process running on my box\ [08:11] lwizardl, "Ubuntu 11.04 release is scheduled somewhere in the time period when it's April 28th somewhere in the world, not at a specific time" [08:11] may I ask for some help about how to install ubunto for netbook? [08:11] rww, can I have that as a bot cmd? [08:11] that would be sweet :-) [08:11] theGreatDane: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xinetd [08:11] where is conicals "home country" ? [08:11] lapion: Isle of Man [08:11] lapion: bah not you [08:11] smw: and now you know why we restrict editing factoids :) [08:11] lwizardl: Isle of Man [08:12] lwizardl: though their office is in london [08:12] ok [08:12] tsimpson, yep. Still you have got to admit that would be a nice factoid :-P [08:12] ty [08:12] :) [08:12] smw: for one day, not really... [08:12] Tax Haven what? [08:13] tsimpson, fine, I will keep it in my clipboard === gr1ncheux is now known as grincheux [08:13] smw: most clients will let you set command aliases, set one to send that message [08:14] ??? nobody to help? [08:14] Popopo: you havent asked a question [08:14] Popopo: what's your problem? [08:14] !details | Popopo [08:14] Popopo: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [08:14] Popopo: or at least not a question beyond "can i ask a question?" level [08:14] you are right maco... but I explained it [08:14] my problem [08:14] is... [08:14] I am installing ubunto in my netbook [08:14] where already I have installed W7 [08:15] and it has 4 partitions already... [08:15] I have no options in ubunto to installing with win7 [08:15] That's something W7 does, recovery partitions etc [08:15] only erase all the disk [08:15] or manually [08:15] yes [08:15] I know Walther [08:15] but my question... Have I another option? [08:16] I mean... I don't want to delete my partitions because my job [08:16] would it be safe if I remove quiet and splash from GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset video=uvesafb:mode_option=1280x1024-24,mtrr=3,scroll=ywrap" [08:16] Popopo: i think you need to use manual since once there are 4 primary partitions, you cant fit any more at all. you need to get rid of a primary and put in an extended, then you can put lots in the extended one [08:16] Popopo: possibly one of these is already extended, even [08:16] I want Ubuntu boot menu instead of the blinking *underscore* [08:16] got it maco... it is not a bad idea [08:17] Popopo: but the 4-primary-max is just plain a hard drive thing, not an ubuntu thing [08:17] ... I think more than one is extended... but isntalations system don't allow me to install it [08:18] maco... in anycase... if I put one as extended... if do I format the primary upper this extended... the extended will be formated too? [08:19] Official release out yet? [08:19] Hi, does anyone here have information about where I can get release version of 11.04? [08:20] Will 11.04 beta2 be upgradable to the official release? [08:20] its due out later today [08:20] msb___: yes [08:20] Yes [08:20] thanks [08:20] of course it is upgradeable, but i'd still recommend a clean install [08:20] silvery: not out yet, release manager will announce at some time today === sullage456123 is now known as sullage [08:21] i've been through so much trouble after failed upgrades [08:21] anyone have an estimate of what time it'll be out? [08:21] can't wait))) [08:21] quick_nick : thank you [08:21] UBUNTU COMES TODAY !°!! [08:21] i,m waiting to download it, have to say tho, i am not sure about Unity yet, looks weird [08:21] yeah, considering a clean install... [08:22] but guys [08:22] !ot [08:22] ... [08:23] hello [08:23] I can't consider a clear install... too much information very important... and moreover... I need to work with win7 because university and job [08:23] Popopo: go with the manual partitioning, merge some partitions and make space for ubuntu [08:24] i have a dumb question about mounting a file system. I've mounted this drive many times before but i just installed ubuntu server and i can't remember the file system type nor how to properly edit fstab. any help pointing me to a howto/tutorial? [08:24] i just made a 100GB partition in preperation for the new release, i think i may wubi it first tho just to check it out [08:25] where to put auto commands in Xchat? [08:25] vibhav, it is under the server configuration [08:25] ok WaltherFi... got it... but it doesn't work. I tried already and doesn't work because I have already 4 primary partitions [08:25] where smw? [08:26] When does 11.04 go live? [08:26] pdg1: "sudo blkid" gives you the filesystem-type, man mount / man fstab should help to get a working fstab-line [08:26] vibhav, server -> network list -> choose a server -> edit [08:26] on a side note, i wonder why wubi only allows a 30gb max size during setup [08:26] vibhav, it is the "connect command" === sahni is now known as shredder12 [08:26] When does Ubuntu 11.04 go live? [08:26] Thanks! [08:27] DirtyDawg: wubi is not recommended [08:27] ScottONanski1: there is no set time [08:27] ScottONanski1: today [08:27] well... maybe next question is easier... for community... I have ubunto in a usb-key. Now I am running it in my netbook. I have internet connection... and I am trying to install aircrack-ng suite there... but I can't not... it say "dependency is no satisfiable:iw" What is happening? [08:27] hej [08:27] Hi everyone! [08:27] Popopo: aircrack-ng is not officially supported [08:28] Popopo: for that, ask some other channel [08:28] oh geez... i know what i'm doing wrong :p i forgot the 1 in sdc1 === enchilad1 is now known as enchilado [08:28] thanks llutz [08:28] mmm got it [08:28] ok ok...

[08:29] DirtyDawg: wubi often breaks after some use, it is not intended for long-term usage [08:29] there is another release? yesterday I downloaded the last one... it was not 10.10? [08:29] ahh [08:29] Popopo: 11.04 releases today [08:29] i totally advice for installing alongside [08:31] hi [08:31] im a nice guy [08:31] congratulations [08:32] thanks [08:32] !offtopic [08:32] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [08:32] uuuh today... for netbook version too? I will check it right now... maybe I have a solution there.... [08:32] histo: I've tried your link, and implemented. [08:33] thank you for all the answers .ç:) I will try to continue from this point. [08:33] have a nice day!!! :) [08:33] As of now during the boot - GRUB2 does set the graphic mode correctly. BUT after that somehow the setup changes to something I don't want. [08:34] sobersabre: Try sys>prefs>monitors [08:35] Please advice on how do I change Unity to Gnome and would Desktop version of 11.04 have Unity as default desktop environment too? [08:35] launch party channel name ? [08:35] Soothsayer: #ubuntu-release-party [08:35] silvery: yes it would, but I read the switch is easy.. you just pick gnome during the login screen. [08:35] thanks [08:36] silvery: Also, natty is still not supported here until after the official release [08:36] Soothsayer : oh, thanks [08:36] Can anybody help me in streaming on my network which has 2 ubuntu boxes? [08:36] soreau : until today, then [08:36] what do the guys in #ubuntu+1 do when the new release is live? just idle and stay silent for a couple of months? [08:36] soreau: professor, isn't that a few hours away? :-P [08:37] Soothsayer: yes [08:38] silvery: Until -later- today [08:38] Can anybody help me in streaming on my network which has 2 ubuntu boxes? [08:38] DirtyDawg, then they can stop splitting their attention and just help in #ubuntu [08:38] ahh [08:38] soreau: sorry to be rude. do you know what I am talking about ? [08:38] vibhav, stream what? [08:38] stream media like videos [08:38] sobersabre: What graphics card do you have? [08:39] soreau: are you a bot ? [08:39] smw : stream media like videos [08:39] soreau : thanks for your explanation [08:40] soreau: I'm trying to reconfigure console resolution.

[08:41] sobersabre: Have you tried the applet in system>preferences>Monitors? [08:41] I've been given a VPS with almost no information about it and told "migrate to this." As a first step, I did 'apt-get update && apt-get upgrade' and it tried to install grub. I told it not to. What are the chances that I screwed things up? [08:41] sobersabre, that needs to be fixed in grub [08:41] hey smw i want to stream Videos [08:41] sobersabre, add the option vga=??? where ??? is a 3 digit number representing your display [08:41] smw: I have yet to change vga=xxx, which I will try now. [08:41] vibhav, I know littel about that [08:41] smw thats fine [08:41] smw never mind [08:42] sobersabre, that is the only way I know how and I have done it many times [08:42] I tried gfxmode, gfxpayload but it apparently changed only what was happening in grub menu. === COMPIZSTYLES is now known as reves [08:42] OK. trying now.

[08:44] no they are using Unity [08:44] sobersabre: Right, I misunderstood you in the first place [08:44] proq: in what context. [08:44] smw, K_45 ok thanks [08:44] soreau, yours looked better anyways [08:44] soreau, much better than a random 3 digit number [08:44] sobersabre: you don't see the context? [08:44] sobersabre: Basically what you're seeing is when the intel module is loaded with kms [08:45] sobersabre: Is Unity still going to be the default for 11.04 or have they moved to KDE? [08:45] proq, lmao [08:45] proq : Unity is a shell interface for the GNOME desktop environment developed by Canonical Ltd for its Ubuntu operating system [08:45] i heard that X is to be replaced by Wayland, is that right? [08:45] sobersabre: For example you would use something like this as a kernel param: video=VGA-1:800x600 [08:45] @ DirtyDawg, eventually [08:45] :o [08:45] vibhav: a shell interface - do you mean a terminal emulator? [08:45] DirtyDawg, one day. X must die [08:46] :( [08:46] sobersabre: But the name VGA-1 may be different [08:46] proq: unity is a new (I'm not sure which:) desktop or windows manager. [08:46] You can use Startup Manger to Change your resolution? [08:46] @ smv - legacy needs to go [08:46] proq : its not a terminal emulator [08:46] soreau: I don't know where does VGA-1 come from. [08:46] I know an easier method to do that [08:47] vibhav: to do what ? [08:47] To change the resolution [08:47] and what do you mean "easier" it is easy anyway: edit a text file, and run update-grub. [08:47] there is a progrma for that too [08:47] vibhav: to change reso of console ? [08:47] sobersabre: I'm trying to find it now.. [08:47] soreau: hint would be nice :) [08:48] there is a progrmam for that too (to change resolution of grub) [08:48] I like your eagerness to help. initially I thought you're not listening.

I'm located in Italy (10:29 AM) [09:29] MACscr, chromium in the repos is a modified version of the original google sources. better wait for updates from ubuntu, they modified some privacy things === guido is now known as Guest14603 [09:29] celthunder: im using Wicd network mang. [09:29] newbie28: did you pick the right network security type [09:29] Incarus6: where have you read that? [09:30] Incarus6: is that just hearsay or does it have some basis? [09:30] celthunder: yup and have triple checked on both ends [09:30] hi guys, i had a question. I'm running 10.10 right now and am wondering if there's any difference in system stability whether I install 11.04 brand new or just do an upgrade [09:30] celthunder: i tried changing to a new password as well still did the same thing [09:30] Technically you can dist-upgrade but it's usually better and cleaner to fresh install [09:30] @Rehan [09:31] Hello :) How much time is it till the 11.04? [09:31] A few hours [09:31] alexander__, usually I (from Germany) can upgrade around afternoon [09:31] newbie28: do you have wpa_supplicant installed (you should but...never hurts to double check) [09:31] If I use the update manager as "update-manager -d" I can upgrade to 11.04. Is this correct? Should I continue as it is the stable one? [09:31] Incarus6: but isnt 11 the current stable release? [09:31] thanks [09:31] vadviktor: yes...that's right....but not yet [09:31] Incarus6: I want clean install [09:31] guest345345, it is mentioned in the user guide [09:31] guest345345: thanks...is there a way to backup the current system i have? [09:31] vadviktor: or you can do: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [09:32] celthunder: yup its there [09:32] guest345345: what do you been by not yet? :) [09:32] Rehan: What do you need to back-up? [09:32] guest345345: that won't change the version unless you changed your sources.list(s) [09:32] MACscr, it is, but usually you do not get the never version of a software, you get security updates (its like FF4, which wasnt released in 10.10) [09:32] it seems that today it is the 28th of April 2011 [09:32] Rehan: personally, I have a script for configuting every new system in Install automatically [09:32] guest345345: i don't know, i was wondering if there's a way i could just make a snapshot of my current system in case the new version doesn't work for me [09:33] alexander__, same, they are going to upload it around that time [09:33] Rehan: You can just copy your /home directory but it's not very clean [09:33] Incarus6: what is this, Centos? =P [09:33] Rehan: I see no reason why it wouldn't work.....I've been testing since alpha and it's very stable now [09:33] MACsrc, we are both talking about ubuntu, right? [09:33] Incarus6: yes, i was making a joke about updates [09:34] Rehan: try it out using the Live image first and see if you like it and it all works... [09:34] guest345345: well 10.10 is considered stable but it was a pain in the ass to get working properly on my sony laptop [09:34] guest345345: I see now, it is still the beta as stated in it's note [09:34] Rehan: yeah, what JR0cket1 said [09:34] MACsrc, im not sure if chromium 11 will be released in 11.04 [09:34] JR0cket1: the liveCD doesn't work well for me, the 10.10 liveCD made it seem as if ubuntu wouldn't run on my machine at all [09:34] celthunder: any ideas on how to fix it? [09:35] Any idea how many hours we have until they release 11.04? [09:35] Rehan: that is probably because of restricted drivers....you can still install them and try to in the Live environment [09:35] elzoog, "Ubuntu 11.04 release is scheduled somewhere in the time period when it's April 28th somewhere in the world, not at a specific time." [09:35] Rehan: and 11.04 has improved a fair bit on the drivers front [09:35] JR0cket1, guest345345: i had to change video, network and other drivers just to get it to work. I didn't know it was possible to install drivers with a LiveCD? [09:35] Well, where I am located, it's 5:35 in the afternoon on the 28th [09:36] pidh, it could have something to do with your vbox settings [09:36] Another Asus eepc question: which architecture image should I get, the x86 or the x64 one? [09:36] elzoog: Unluck....because the work day has barely started at Canonical HQ [09:36] Unlucky* [09:36] vadviktor: depends which eee pc [09:36] elzoog: what time zone are you in [09:36] i am going to install the daily built (26 April). cannot see them adding too much more release [09:36] anyone know what ATI video support is like in natty? [09:36] I live in Korea [09:36] elzoog, aw [09:36] yay, its finally been released on the website :) [09:36] vadviktor: if you're on an atom....x86 [09:36] Rehan: If you need to add a lot of packages, install Ubuntu onto a usb stick rather than your hard drive and then you can install what you want without issue [09:36] pidh, did you modify your xorg.conf file? [09:36] 10:36 AM in France, it's so long [09:37] elzoog: GMT+ ? [09:37] good stuff:) [09:37] anyone know what time GMT the new version is coming out? [09:37] http://www.ubuntu.com/ [09:37] andeeeuk, sure? [09:37] guest345345: thanks, that is the info I was not aware of [09:37] Rehan: No set time, just anytime in the next 15 hours [09:37] yeah, gmt time for ubuntu 11.04 would be nice === lance_ is now known as Guest20282 [09:37] oh i see, thanks Djones [09:38] 英语不行，别鄙视 [09:38] I made the mistake of installing Ubuntu Studio on my desktop. It's buggy. But I am waiting for 11.04 instead of installing the normal 10.10 [09:38] !ch | mavis [09:38] mavis: Das Schweizer Team finden sie unter #ubuntu-ch, deutschsprachigen Support bekommen sie aber in #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de oder #edubuntu-de. Aus regionalen Gründen ist im Schweizer Channel nur Englisch erlaubt. Geben sie einfach /join #ubuntu-at ein! Danke für ihr Verständnis. [09:38] damn [09:38] Rehan: a good 4 GB Usb memory still will run Ubuntu 11.04 well for testing your hardware and save you over-writing you current system [09:38] Incarus6: i enabled the 3d capabilities will disable them, and i did try to add a new video mode before installing the guest addon and because of that it may look different [09:39] You can just dual boot to try it if you are worried a LiveUSB will skew the experience too much [09:39] JR0cket1: oh ok, thats a good idea. I tried creating a bootable usb for 10.10 but kept getting "boot error' on startup [09:39] and then overwrite both when you're ready to upgrade for real [09:39] no, not yet. If it is not released yet we will wait and waiting is a good thing isnt it so we know it is all good [09:39] learn [09:39] JR0cket1: I have 11.04 on one of my sticks. If I install stuff on it, and then install it on my HD, will it also install the added software?

[09:41] soreau : dno what that is im new to this [09:41] newbie28: Which version of ubuntu? [09:41] soreau : 10.10 [09:41] time of release is after noon GMT+1 according to a canonical employee: http://bettween.com/matto1990/yaili [09:42] newbie28: nm-applet is the default network management applet that appears in gnome-panel [09:42] matto1990: yeah that sounds about same as last time [09:42] could someone explain to a complete newbie like me whether I should use ubuntu or kubuntu? I don't get the difference really... [09:42] just after they eat lunch lol [09:42] Incarus6: Thanks! [09:42] Rehan: Use Ubuntu [09:43] soreau : ohh ya i started with that and it wouldnt even connect to the network so ive googled it and did some whole thing that got me to the "Wicd" but now it says "bad password" each time [09:43] use kubuntu [09:43] Rehan: ubuntu has gnome by default and kubuntu has kde by default [09:43] Rehan: Kubuntu is horrifically ugly [09:43] how do i add an custom installed (not using apitiude) application to unity sidebar? [09:43] at least it doesn't run unity per default [09:43] Rehan, personal preference. ubuntu uses the gnome desktop enviroment by default, kubuntu uses KDE. [09:43] xubuntu [09:43] Rehan, Kubuntu is unbuntu with the more like windows looking KDE desktop. Ubuntu uses gnome [09:43] Incarus6: there is no corg.conf in /etc/X11 [09:43] Rehan: The official ubuntu distro uses gnome, if that tells you anything.. [09:44] Rehan: try both with live cd [09:44] vib when you write - I need to hunt your messages /window list [09:44] pidh, I know, you have to create one [09:44] yay I think I'm getting Ubuntu to finally install :) ! [09:44] Yeah...KDE stack is built on better technology......but it's naming conventions are annoying and it's full of BLOAT [09:44] elzoog: If you install Ubuntu on a Usb stick, then it wont have the installer packages - you could add them, but I personally would do a reinstall and perhaps grab the package list off the usb stick and take a copy of everything in /etc [09:44] egolost: Start Application --> right click and select, that the application always show up [09:44] At least till the release of 11.04 later this day, it uses gnome :P [09:44] Anyone know the version of python that comes with Ubuntu, or actually...if python does come included? [09:44] stefan__1: but how do i get my application to show up in start applications? [09:45] soreau : should i switch back?? if so how the heck do i do that lol [09:45] 10.10 [09:45] Zavior: 2.7 [09:45] thanks [09:45] newbie28: I guess you would have to undo whatever you did to switch in the first place [09:45] egolost: You mean at the unity applications menu? [09:45] if I didn't create a swap partition when i installed 10.10 (i have two partitions on the laptop drive but one is for win7), does that mean I can't hibernate the system? [09:45] Zavior: np [09:45] stefan__1: YES [09:45] hello, im trying to follow this to set up vnc: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC#Guide%20to%20example%20scenarios and I'm currently on a windows machine using putty. I have sshed to my home computer but I don't know how to get the public key which I apparently need to add to a file [09:45] echolost: alternativly try to start the app over a terminal [09:45] Rehan, yes. [09:46] velcroshooz: oh i see. I should still be able to suspend though right? [09:46] Zavior: actually I just checked....11.04 is running 2.7.1 [09:46] Incarus6: any pointer to a guide how to create it - i am new to linux and have no coding skills. [09:46] egolost: otherwise you can start the menu ?reorganization? with a command, which I actually don't know --> if you need the app in the unity menu [09:47] morning all [09:47] \o [09:47] Rehan, as i understand it, i believe so. hibernate is going to require a swap partition equal to or possible a bit more than your ram size. [09:48] velcroshooz: ok cool [09:48] velcroshooz: that's not necessarily true....it only needs to be as big as resident memory...not total memory [09:48] anybody here? [09:48] or the average you generally use anyway [09:48] trying to figure out why no matter what i try my laptop won't suspend/standby. Well actually it will suspend but when i try to turn it back on it boots up just like a cold boot [09:49] Rehan: a default install allocates 1:1 memory:swap [09:49] so unless you used custom partitions it should be enough [09:49] or unless you added more memory since [09:49] guest345345: i already had a 10gb partition made for ubuntu and i just installed ubuntu onto that. [09:50] clear [09:50] oh...well that is not default then [09:50] any down sides to encrypting the home directory? [09:50] hello all! [09:50] guest345345, as your use can fluctuate though i think most tutorials suggest a size equal to your ram to be on the safe side. [09:50] need emergecny help! [09:50] velcroshooz: yeah....that is optimal if you plan to hibernate [09:50] when is the new release scheduled to happen? [09:50] velcroshooz: but not strictly required most of the time [09:50] I need help. Using Ubuntu 10.10. I have recovered my files through Windows and have only retrieved a single file Root.disk. Can anyone help? [09:51] tutorials are generally aimed at people who prefer not to think much [09:51] arnauddebordeaux: Dial 911 or whatever the emergency hotline is in your country [09:51] beiju [09:51] sorry, soreau? [09:51] and the easiest way to encapsulate anyone is to just play safe [09:51] everyone* [09:51] pidh, sry, I was afk. try to change resolution with "xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 1024x768" or similar https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution [09:51] uhm [09:51] is making a win7 partition smaller to create space for a new partition (for ubuntu swap) considered a workaround or is it as good as setting up a partition on a clean drive from scratch? [09:51] i've tried all i know [09:51] jiu [09:52] Rehan: do you really need Win7 for something? [09:52] games [09:52] does anyone konw how to use the grub rescue? [09:52] guest345345: yeah its way more reliable than ubuntu [09:52] arnauddebordeaux: might help if you said what the problem was [09:52] Rehan, Is it as good as from a clean drive [09:52] jiu meiyou huishuo zhongwen de ren zai ? [09:52] ! grub2 | arnauddebordeaux [09:52] arnauddebordeaux: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 - See !grub1 for releases before Karmic (9.10) [09:52] Rehan: 10GB is more than enough for an average ubuntu install but it may not give it enough room to allocate the recommended swap partition [09:52] Rehan: and that may be your problem [09:52] guest345345: i see, thank you [09:53] I need help. Using Ubuntu 10.10. I have recovered my files through Windows and have only retrieved a single file Root.disk. Can anyone help? [09:53] guest345345: when you say "allocate the recommended swap partition" do you mean a third partition? I have a 500 GB drive and made a 490 GB NTFS win7 partition and a 10 GB ext4 ubuntu partition. Can the swap file be put on that same 10gb ext4 partition? [09:53] hello [09:54] but there is no tuto for how to use this grub rescue, and I don't have any other solution... [09:54] so [09:54] my problem [09:54] what is name of ubuntu release party? [09:54] 11.04 available for download yet? [09:54] channel [09:54] Rehan: yes...swap must be seperate......the installer allocates it automatically [09:54] is there a curses alternative to diffusion? it just had my load average up really high... no idea what it was doing [09:54] nick-nack, No [09:54] haishi jiang zhongwen ba [09:54] how long till 11.04 realease? [09:54] i have a computer whose CD reader doesn't work [09:54] Rehan: for a defualt full-disk install it will generally be 1:1 with your memory [09:54] is there ubuntu release pary? [09:54] Is root.disk enough for recovering all my documents from ubuntu 10.10? [09:54] floodbot lol? [09:54] Rehan: but if you only give it 10GB disk to work with...maybe it will allocate less [09:54] Marco1, It will be released in the next hours. There is no exact release time [09:55] Is root.disk enough for recovering all my documents from ubuntu 10.10? [09:55] Rehan: I'm not sure exactly because I usually do custom and allocate swap myself [09:55] guest345345: will it create a new partition automatically? sorry i'm being unclear about it, trying to understand [09:55] !party [09:55] Please remember that #ubuntu, #kubuntu, #xubuntu, and #edubuntu are support channels. To countdown to Natty release and then party once it happens, join #ubuntu-release-party - For in-person parties, see http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/global/744/detail/ [09:55] guest345345: oh ok [09:55] join [09:55] Rehan: yes, any install will allocate swap by default [09:55] Is root.disk enough for recovering all my documents from ubuntu 10.10? [09:55] Rehan: the simple/default install will hide it from you but it will do it nonetheless [09:55] hello =3 [09:56] guest345345: oh ok [09:56] Rehan: Windows and Mac to exactly the same too [09:56] do* [09:57] guest345345: oh ok. when i do fdisk -l i see an NTFS partition then an Extended and a third Linux one [09:57] anyone know if theres gonna be a release of Ubuntu server 11.04 anytime soon? [09:57] Is root.disk enough for recovering all my documents from ubuntu 10.10? [09:57] Rehan: actually...perhaps Windows 7 only uses a "pagefile" by default....but it's recommended to have a seperate parition for Win7 just the same [09:57] cfc_{Pawpad}, it will be released today [09:58] cool [09:58] Rehan: but Windows sucks of course....so I can understand why they don't follow best practices by default [09:58] mythri, can you explain what you exactly did? [09:58] cant wait =3 [09:58] and i just finished installing 10.10 server :) go figure [09:59] Thanks [09:59] Macer: I'm in the same boat :) [09:59] Zavior: upgrading the dist is easy enough === MmikeMRMA is now known as Mmike [09:59] personally i would rather wait a month or so before i instealled 11.04 [09:59] I'm not to savy on linux :) [09:59] Incarus6, I used disk internals and recovered my root.disk from ubuntu through Windows xp [09:59] Taking bets on release time.......my money is on 13:15 GMT [10:00] let them iron out theones they missed first :) [10:00] Incarus6, I used disk internals and recovered my root.disk from ubuntu through Windows xp [10:00] Isn't ironing out the thorns what the beta versions are for? [10:00] but at least all you have to do is change your apt-sources and do a dist update and you're done [10:00] Macer: I've been testing it for a while now....to be honest...it feels more stable that 10.10 by now [10:01] i just updated my lenny box to squeeze ... was amazingly simple [10:01] 11.04 will deliver beta software (unity) so better wait for a next release (if you use your machine for something productive) [10:01] guest345345: well. i am sure there is something messed up somewhere ;) [10:01] mythri, yes, I allready read that [10:01] mythri: Knoppix is a great live CD for fixing problems like that [10:01] unity? [10:01] jatt: beta or not...it's still a huge improvement over gnome panel [10:01] What am I able to do with root.disk? [10:02] it isn't -> https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/648180 [10:02] Can I recover files? [10:02] Ubuntu bug 648180 in unity (Ubuntu) "Unity sucks" [Undecided,Opinion] [10:02] it is still possible to run without unity so there is no real reason not to upgrade. [10:02] Incarus6, What am I able to do with root.disk? [10:02] i use kubuntu for my desktops ;) if unity has something to do with xorg well.. i honestly only have my ubuntu fileserver [10:02] which is awesome ... sure feels good to no longer be using oi [10:02] jatt: lol, that bug is just an subjective complaint [10:02] jatt: can't please everyone [10:03] elzoog, I don't have such a Knoppix cd right now [10:03] jatt: some people have an irrational aversion to change [10:03] nope the bug comments have a lot of valid points === waremperor is now known as kycka [10:03] mythri, I'm not sure about that, I think it recoverd the whole partition [10:03] jatt: not really....it's all just heckling from the peanut gallery [10:04] http://lwn.net/Articles/387763/ [10:04] Incarus6, how can I extract my essential documents from that? [10:04] that's unity? [10:04] looks like gnome with a giant menu on the left :) [10:04] Incarus6, is there anyway I can open root.disk and see the contents? [10:04] Macer: no.....that's the old netbook edition [10:04] is unity still kinda unpolished in its look? [10:04] oh [10:04] Macer: that no longer exists [10:04] Macer, looks like gnome3 [10:04] Do I install natty on my main pc today? Or do I wait a while? [10:04] Some people have an irrational aversion to change. And some people have an irrational fascination with change. I remember a job interview where I asked them why they wanted to use technology X. Their answer was the only reason they wanted to use X was because it was new [10:04] it's beta software [10:04] well.. let me look for a different screen shot [10:05] MAcer, guest345345: http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/4641/gnome3vx2.png [10:05] actually the idea was to include unity in gnome3 but gnome developers were against it, canonical was pissed off about it and decided to put it in his distribution anyway [10:05] elzoog: new is bundled with good,new and improved stuff. [10:06] Macer: that looks just like a mockup from Gnome3 [10:06] but It doesn't look anything like it now [10:06] Incarus6: wow gnome 3 looks nicer than unity [10:06] Incarus6, is there anyway I can open root.disk and see the contents? [10:06] Whats happening, isnt today [10:06] Should desktop or netbook version be used on laptops? [10:06] Gnome3 is effing awful [10:07] Unity looks and works much better than Gnome 3 shell... [10:07] mythri: this might help you: http://ext2read.blogspot.com/ [10:07] gnome shell is a disgrace too [10:07] Incarus6: that can not be real haha [10:07] it doesn't look good on the gtk side, hopefully kde and xfce get better [10:07] mythri, check out http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb545046 its not an ubuntu related question [10:07] Unity may have a few flaws to iron out...but it's much faster and more usable thatn gnome3 shell [10:08] heh. sorry but i still believe kde has them all beat ;) but to each their own === gary is now known as Gary [10:08] Macer, http://www.gnome3.org/ [10:08] Zavior: there is no longer a different image for desktop and netbook - hence the name Unity :-) [10:08] Whats happening, isnt today 28^th April, or which time zone do canonical guys live in, ubuntu.com still promises Natty downloads from 28^th April, my update manager hasnt noticed any new distro, or am I the one in the wrong timezone? [10:08] Macer: KDE but with a Unity-like shell would be perfect [10:08] but KDE can never get usability right [10:08] gnome 3 disgrace -> http://lwn.net/Articles/433409/ [10:08] it's looks like Windows ....but worse [10:08] guest345345, I think unity needs open source graphic card drivers [10:09] Hi Guys - Anyone know the time when 11.04 finalrelease will be available for download from the website [10:09] JR0cket1: as of what version [10:09] guest345345: i don't have a problem with kde ;) i think it's great [10:09] windows sucks but you cannot deny they have lots of experience in gui design/usability [10:09] Zavior: as of 11.04 === shanks_ is now known as CaptainShanks [10:09] Incarus6: looks the same except they used a darker theme? [10:09] Which isn't out yet? I'm on 10.10 :) [10:09] who needs fancy gui's, just use awesomewm :D [10:09] http://www.gnome3.org/img/search-big.png that looks kinda like the unity screenshot [10:09] i was honestly never a big fan of gnome [10:09] anyone know of an alternative to diffusion that doesn't take up so much in system resources? [10:09] Incarus6, the root.disk I have got is from ubuntu. [10:09] i would rather use kde or fluxbox over gnome.. something about it never felt right [10:09] Incarus6: not sure...I haven't looked into that......I know the Plymouth boot screen needs open source drivers because of Kernel modesetting [10:10] Incarus6, what is that link you gave me last for? [10:10] Macer, and the big menu on the left side of the screen [10:10] Zavior: if you are on 10.10 I'd go with the desktop version [10:10] Hey guys, please help here. Has natty been released, or what is this talk on gnome3 vs Unity about, Am I behind something? [10:10] Incarus6: but there is a non OpenGL version of Unity for people who can't use the 3d one [10:10] guest345345, plymouth is working for me. yeah I heard about unity 2D [10:10] nmvictor: usual irc chatter, not missing much :-) [10:10] Incarus6: it's packaged as unity-2d in the archives [10:10] no 3D? :) [10:11] is it 1990? heh [10:11] Incarus6: written with Qt QML [10:11] Macer, E17 / DR17 is great too [10:11] * Macer goes to bust out the voodoo2s [10:11] JR0cket1: so natty aint released yet, so whats the countdown? [10:11] is there a windows app to format drives to ext4? === Squirm2 is now known as Squirm [10:11] Incarus6: i haven't used enlightenment in a LONG time.. but it was ok.. i didn't like its dock too much and it took too long to tweak.. plus isn't it gtk ? :) === qweqweqwe is now known as Iron_Chef [10:11] guest345345, I think Im going to test it when Natty is released. But I think its no fun: the 2D version and a Quad-Core computer [10:12] something about most gtk things .. they make me feel like i am using motif [10:12] JR0cket1: coz far as I live, today is 28^th april 2011 [10:12] windowmaker was sweet too too bad it died [10:12] nmvictor: The release team is in the UK, so I recon around lunchtime, early afternoon UTC+1 [10:12] like no matter how much work they do on it gtk always seems to remind of me windows 3.1 [10:12] or fvwm in redhat distributions [10:12] nmvictor: thats just a guess... nothing official.. [10:12] JR0cket1: thats encouraging. [10:12] Incarus6: as far as I know.....you only need OpenGL support....but I could be wrong [10:12] Macer, correct. I dont like e16 that much, but E17 is much better ;) [10:13] Incarus6: or more specifically open GLES [10:13] whats plymouth? [10:13] is e17 qt or something? [10:13] Rehan: the boot screen [10:13] oh ok [10:13] i'm sure glad kde decided to stick with the qt route. they have done a great job of it [10:14] yeah i had problems with it because i had to use nvidia drivers instead of nouveau [10:14] guest345345, I think its working with the nouveau drivers, the proprietary drivers arent supported: http://askubuntu.com/questions/21427/does-unity-require-proprietary-graphics-card-drivers [10:14] hey guys, let's make #natty a twitter trending topic! [10:14] Incarus6: oh...yeah I had heard something to that affect.... [10:14] Incarus6: I only buy Intel graphics anyway [10:15] intel? really? [10:15] Incarus6: So long as they can handle 1080 video I don't care [10:15] Natty will revolutionalize Linux, seemingly it will bring some investors into open source market. The worst news is canonical will go fully business and if we're not lucky, the promise of ubuntu always being free might be broken. [10:15] Incarus6: I don't game [10:15] Incarus6: anything more than an Intel HD integrated is overkill for me [10:15] haha.. that is a very fair point [10:15] Incarus6: Why burn watts if you don't need to ;) ? [10:15] guest345345: get a new artigo ;) it has hdmi out [10:16] Intel HD cards have HDMI out too [10:16] guest345345, yeah, I dont buy special cards, Im using the integrated graphic card [10:16] i am a huge fan of the little boxes [10:16] and they're ultra low power [10:16] guest345345: yeah but the artigo stuff is half the size of an internal optical drive [10:16] uses the via pico itx stuff [10:17] Sounds cool....but I'm not picky about graphics really [10:17] i have an older 1GHz one that i use as my local shell box/dns etc [10:17] just low power and plays video is enough [10:17] heh [10:17] me too... but my fileserver is a beast.. it consumes power and spits it out [10:17] with its 10 hard drives and its 2 opteron 285s [10:17] The reason I dig Intel is because they have done quite a bit for Open Source....and their own drivers are completely open [10:18] Shipit closed down! [10:18] i actually want to upgrade the cpus but it is hard finding faster cpus for socket 940 nowadays [10:18] to update all I need to type: sudo apt-get dist-update? [10:18] Does someone have graphic card / Xorg related issues, here? [10:18] guys can you help me [10:18] ? [10:18] why are proprietary drivers not preferred over open source ones? [10:19] shmoolikipod: yeah...but you need to update the apt cache first [10:19] !ask | citra-indah [10:19] citra-indah: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [10:19] how can i find the x11 folder? [10:19] does sftp through terminal support resume? [10:19] guest345345, yeah sure :D, thanks :) [10:19] Rehan: Its because they're limited to updates by the manufacturer and can't be modified by the community [10:19] shmoolikipod: to upgrade, you meant, update showld translate to `sudo ate-get upgrade [10:19] Rehan: because proprietary means the manufacturers are solely responsible for progress [10:19] Rehan: and they couldn't give a sh*t about many platforms [10:19] ohh i see [10:19] or improving support on them [10:20] Rehan, drivers tells us alot about the hardware, they won't show you how exactly their hardware works [10:20] i tried the nouveau ones for my laptops nvidia card and kept having problems with it and then after installing the nvidia ones it worked perfectly [10:20] nmvictor, thanks [10:20] 11.04 seems to be out: http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso [10:20] Intel Graphics are trailing the pack by miles......but their drivers are open....they're by far the best choice for Linux unless you need gaming power [10:21] But to be fair....gaming on Linux ain't great anyway [10:21] nevermind [10:21] thanks Incarus6 [10:21] rverrips, nevermind, its the beta [10:21] Yeah, I don't recommend linux if your primary purpose for using your computer is gaming [10:22] Incarus6 is that actually the final release now? [10:22] andeeeuk, no, its from 26. April [10:22] elzoog: I don't really game anyway...but if I did...I think it makes more sense to have a dedicated machine [10:22] how much power does a fast i7 use maxed out? [10:22] Wattage: 92.6W [10:22] any way to quickly check from cli which driver i'm actually using (not sure if i uninstalled nouveau, i remember i needed it for plymouth i think) [10:22] Incarus6, lol ok [10:22] that is a 2.8GHz single core athens cpu for my mboard [10:22] elzoog: No need to beat the shit out of your office machine by playing games on it ;) [10:23] 92W! wow [10:23] andeeeuk, just thought it was the final [10:23] Incarus6, yeah its hard waiting sometimes isnt it... lol [10:24] Thanks for the heads' up andeeeuk - I think it's still the beta Incarus6 - won't the final drop the name natty? [10:24] when is ubuntu 11.04 going to be available to download ? :) [10:24] i havei have sis vga on my laptop, and the resolution can't more than 800x600 pixel, so how can i improve my resolution on my ubuntu 10.04? [10:24] andeeeuk, come on, I wont to test it -.- [10:24] All the inpatient fanatics should be running beta if they love it that much [10:24] alrra: today === kris_ is now known as Guest70642 [10:24] Why aren't you inpatient folks testing beta and helping to improve it? ;) [10:24] guest345345: any way to quickly check from cli which driver I'm actually using (not sure if I uninstalled nouveau, remember needing it for plymouth i think) thanks [10:24] guest345345; I agree, but new releases are allways great for me. If it wouldn't be that great for me I would use debian ;) [10:25] Incarus6, lol. I just want to upgrade to get back to work. [10:25] So guys.... [10:25] Rehan: yeah, as nice as the ideology of open source is......at the moment...the proprietary drivers are a lot better [10:25] I forgot if someone answered this, but if I put 11.04 on my flash stick, then later install other programs. Will those other programs get installed if later on I decide to use that stick to install Ubuntu on my hard drive? [10:26] ugisozols: i know that :) but maybe a more precise time ? tnx [10:26] heey [10:26] guest345345: I am all for having the choice to use proprietary drivers. [10:26] elzoog: It's possible to do...but I remember it being pretty unreliable last time I tried [10:26] alrra: that is the most precise time :) [10:26] * [10:26] [10:26] Facebook [10:26] [10:26] [10:26] vibhav: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [10:26] 99 [10:27] some way to crack WEP i use virtual box but cant see any wep near by but i have a wirlees connection.. [10:27] ugisozols: ok tnx :) [10:27] Yeah proprietary is fine if that's the way they want it....just important that open source drivers are developed in paralel in case they ever pull support [10:27] anyone knows how I avoid that fsck fails during boot if the hwclock is set back in time? [10:28] elzoog, you can make an usb stick eprsistent and non-persistent [10:28] cmon_ [10:28] FloodBot2 sets mode -q #ubuntu vibhav!*@* what does that mean? [10:28] somone could help me with this_ [10:28] vibhav: it means you made floodbot angry [10:28] elzoog, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [10:29] guest345345: thanks for all the help. I had another question. If I made a liveCD to install 11.04 from, boot it up, format the current 10.10 partition and leave the win7 NTFS one alone, will my current GRUB2 dual boot menu be totally borked [10:29] The persistence seems to work ok for documents etc. [10:29] Ugh, this wait is killing me [10:29] but didn't seem to work that great for packages [10:29] when I tried anyway [10:29] heeeey [10:29] yay, its out [10:29] guest345345, it worked great for me the last time i tried it (10.10) [10:29] It's not out now. [10:29] whats up? [10:29] dreinull_: no its not [10:29] I just looked at the site. [10:30] ftp://ftp.releases.ubuntu.com/releases/11.04 [10:30] Incarus6: oh cool.....I might try again then [10:30] Hey why cant i connect WEP _ [10:30] ? [10:30] dreinull_: thats the beta [10:30] I'm loading the release right now [10:30] Rehan: Depends on whether or not your boot partition is seperate from the main 10.10 partition. If not, then your formatting will overwrite it and your grub2 will be screwed [10:30] guest345345, I dont like live usb sticks that much. They seems to be slowlier then live cds. [10:30] does anyone know if it is worth upgrading to 11.04, in terms of stability? [10:30] it's not worth it [10:30] Rehan: I'm on ftp [10:30] Incarus6: I have a script for installing and configuring any new machine I roll out - would be nice to throw the script on the USB and pull packages from the local cache [10:31] no [10:31] andeeeuk, it is [10:31] its actually worse for stability [10:31] How would you map out your windows shares? I mean if you are going to play an MP3 from it with mpg321 ? Do you use smb://192.../path/file.mp3 ? [10:31] stick with a LTS release [10:31] Incarus6: Yeah, but a liveCd doesn't have the option of modifying what's on it usually [10:31] elzoog, correct. a persistent usb stick got that option [10:31] There's only betas in the ftp. [10:31] o, the torrent is not yet authorized [10:31] Why cant i find WEP? I use VB should i maybe change to live CD? [10:32] hey, when is the release, guys? [10:32] 11.04 will have a lot of bugs better wait until it is polished with patches for a while [10:32] Incarus6 is that actually the final release now? [10:32] its only 5:31am, wow [10:32] hehe [10:32] anyway, the torrent is here: ftp://ftp.releases.ubuntu.com/releases/11.04/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent [10:32] Somone here use BT? [10:32] lovee__To_hAXK: me [10:32] dreinull_, its the beta release [10:32] at my place it is 11:32 am [10:32] no, it's not [10:32] or is there some other way to see the windows shares again ? I forgot about ? [10:32] look at the date [10:32] here its 2:32 AM [10:32] Incarus6: so you are saying.....if I pull some packages to the apt cache on my USB stick......I can install from those packages when I install later? [10:32] HEEY [10:32] :P [10:32] dreinull_: Yes it is [10:32] derinull [10:33] Incarus6: cuz it's been a while since I tried it.....but it never seemed to work before [10:33] elzoog: look at the timelog 28.04.11 08:35:00 [10:33] dreinull_, nut sure about that, it was updated today, so it could be the final release [10:33] wich one BT4? [10:33] I have a 64 bit CPU and use 64 bit Windows 7. Is Ubuntu good enough for me to use 64 bit yet? [10:33] I checked earlier today and it said beta and April 14 [10:33] do I need to update ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10 before I can update to 11.04 :S? [10:33] I feel a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of Ubuntu repositories suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced." [10:33] matto1990: yes! [10:33] m_fulder: guess so [10:34] my num keys don't work anymore, what could be the problem? is my keyboard broken? how can you check that? [10:34] dreinull_: latest beta is april 26 :) [10:34] matto1990: Assuming your hardware isn't too obscure [10:34] Whats the ETA on Natty Narwhal release? [10:34] here it is! [10:34] http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ [10:34] matto1990 of course it is [10:34] Should i change to Ubuntu Is it better than BT4? [10:34] you won't tell the difference between 64bit and 32bit unless you have lots of ram and/or run programs with heavy CPU usage [10:34] right, and could something go wrong during an update like that ? (I got a bunch of scripts etc. on my comp which I don't want to loose) [10:34] will you have a problem with drivers or anything though? I have a year or so old Acer laptop [10:34] are you having trouble with BT4? [10:35] jatt: Except the fact that using 64-bit floating points means his average memory usage will go up quite a bit [10:35] guest345345, you can install packages with apt-get on the live usb stick [10:35] matto1990 no, with Acer you will have less problems [10:35] m3t4lukas: less? How so? [10:36] Incarus6: yeah I know that.....but can you reference those packages for a hard installation later? [10:36] mott01990 sry *the least [10:36] Incarus6: like the same as using the CD in sources.list? [10:36] motto1990 I was looking for the word [10:36] Incarus6: I know you could dpkg them....but it's kind of a pain [10:36] its getting crowded on bt. > 60. [10:37] heey i have a PROBLEM with BT4 [10:37] guest345345, uff Im not sure about that. dont you have an easier solution for that? [10:37] Incarus6: because if you bypass apt...it doesn't log dependencies [10:37] m3t4lukas: ah ok, so it should work really well. What about ATI GPU? good support for that? [10:37] !backtrack | lovee__To_hAXK [10:37] lovee__To_hAXK: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux), Ultimate Edition [10:37] dreinull_: are you getting the final ? [10:37] Rehan: yes [10:37] dreinull_: where from, and how are you sure its not a beta? [10:38] What UTC time does natty gets released? [10:38] motto1990 ATI, NVIDIA, INTEL, they are all well supported [10:38] Cant Crack WEP With BT4... [10:38] Rehan: why would they label the beta without the beta in its name? [10:38] lovee__To_hAXK: read what ubottu told you and respect the rules please [10:38] According to this site http://releases.ubuntu.com/ the date stamp for 11.04 is 28-Apr-2011 09:11 [10:38] Incarus6: easier, maybe...but not as seemless [10:38] m3t4lukas: perfect. Thanks for the help. May as well go for 64 bit then :) [10:39] Incarus6: it should be possible....and it's the most intuitive way to do it [10:39] Confirmed: Edubuntu just got it's FINAL torrent dvd out! :) [10:39] .. [10:39] Incarus6: but I guess very few people need that ability [10:39] oh, connections are now refused [10:39] http://www.kubuntu.org/ changed [10:41] http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ still takes me to the beta releases [10:41] Confirmed: http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ has the FINAL images listed! :) Happy downloading! [10:41] vadviktor, negative.: it takes me to http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ubuntu-11.04-beta2-desktop-i386.iso === uncle|sam is now known as Uncle|Sam [10:41] yeah exactly [10:41] sudo update-manager should download something if I'm on beta2, right? [10:41] and it even says beta 2 at the top of the page [10:42] vadviktor: Not for me [10:42] http://ubuntuone.com/p/p5S/ there's a background that looks great with the new Ubuntu Unity look [10:42] oh...scratch that....effing cache [10:42] he's right....it's there [10:42] Incarus6: check back a few minutes later, I AM downloading the release images right now, with PROPER names [10:42] just had a stubborn cache [10:42] no its not beta2 anymore [10:42] vadviktor, Im upgrading, not downloading images ;) [10:42] it is the final release [10:42] I told you guys [10:43] i already installed 11.04 ;) [10:43] http://releases.ubuntu.com/11.04/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-amd64.iso [10:43] lol [10:43] it's released? [10:43] I still see cached version of the page [10:43] Yeah it's out....they should have set the page cache to expire today [10:43] bt is kinda slow :) [10:43] lol [10:43] is it ok to upgrade from the mamanger now? [10:43] andeeeuk: yeah [10:43] sweeet [10:43] cleared cache, cant confirm that. Its Beta2 [10:43] more people please: ftp://ftp.releases.ubuntu.com/releases/11.04/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent [10:43] happy 11.04 everyonr [10:43] how do I upgrade from beta2 to release? [10:44] is it out yet? [10:44] Incarus6: yeah I did a shift-F5 in Chrome [10:44] Incarus6: use the ftp link [10:44] has to clear the whole cache [10:44] KNUBBIG: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrasde [10:44] not sure why [10:44] But the image link is the real deal [10:44] Still not released in the update manager [10:44] iceroot, that ownly downloads one package, is that correct? [10:44] only* [10:45] guest345345, Ok, I can confirm that know ;) [10:45] ubuntu feels so bloated, i installed efxc over gnome yesterday and dident like it so i did sudo apt-get remove xubuntu-desktop, now i have 2 diffrent terminals! how can i remove the "xubuntu-desktop"s terminal? [10:45] KNUBBIG: no [10:45] :( [10:45] KNUBBIG: its doing what you want [10:45] KNUBBIG: beta 2 -> final [10:45] iceroot, okay, thanks [10:46] loka: that's not bloat...that just you messing up your system [10:46] wget gives me 404 for that link. FTP doesn't show the release files either [10:46] tracker refusing to accept torrent yet, must wait :P [10:46] yeah, I updated :) [10:46] it's generally not smart to be running 2 environments when it's still beta [10:46] hum, don't looks much different... [10:46] can't wait for the new ubuntu :) [10:46] but it don't knows my blender release 1.57... [10:47] I mean the updater [10:47] guest345345 it is pretty messed up yeah lol [10:48] loka: if you want to try a different environment just for a while...I suggest using virtualbox [10:48] or a live disk [10:48] they generally don't play well together [10:48] I started an ubuntu install with wubi over win7. it got past download and status said install about two hours ago, now the progress bar is about 60% and hasn't moved in an hour. what should I do? [10:48] and Linux doesn't babysit core packages like Windows does....they all just packages [10:48] you can fuck them up pretty easily [10:49] proq, wubi sint supported in windows 7, sorry [10:49] *isnt [10:49] loka: you didn't completely remove the desktop [10:49] it actually still says it is a beta release from the update manager [10:49] damn thing :s [10:50] proq, it could be supported yet, I dont know. I had the same problem with wubi. check back if you use the latest wubi release [10:50] Incarus6: hrm... that's a lovely thing to find out after a five hour install [10:50] this is probs said a billion times now. but how long till were pexecting [10:50] jesus...Windows is still taking 5 hours to install?! [10:51] expecting** [10:51] what a pile of bloat lol [10:51] do a parallel installation [10:51] Hello [10:51] guest345345: no, wubi hit an error and just stopped [10:51] Ubuntu+kickstart script takes less than 30 minutes for a fullt installed and configured machine here [10:51] proq, you could cancel it earlier ;) [10:51] proq: wubi install of 10.10? [10:52] It's tragic that you have to download and install things one by one on a new Windows install [10:52] even Mac users have homebrew and macports [10:52] Windows is just awful [10:52] proq, the wubi installation should take around 5 minutes [10:52] proq, after the download [10:52] almoxarife: when I selected netbook from wubi, it started grabbing ubuntu 10.04 [10:53] When ubuntu 11.04 will be available for download? [10:53] the toram option for the live cd should be default because it not only frees up the cd drive for use, playing and burning, when people are testing it also it increases the speed and responsiveness of the OS [10:53] does the update manager still say that it is the beta release when doing an upgrade? [10:53] well, maybe tomorrow I can grab wubi netbook 11.04 and try again [10:53] proq: that's ok, how are you connected to the internet? [10:53] or just the full version [10:53] /join #php [10:53] Nefertiti: now [10:53] Ruuumb0: no thanks [10:53] sorry [10:53] almoxarife: wireless connection to a wireless router [10:53] Its jabber client [10:53] lol [10:54] hah busted joining the PHP channel...you must be pretty ashamed now [10:54] proq: you are stuck in the updates from internet portion? [10:54] ;) [10:54] Oh Im so excited, WUBAWUBAWU :D nevermind. I heard 11.04 is going to bereleased in 10 minutes [10:54] Ah :) [10:54] The toram option for the live cd should be default because it not only frees up the cd drive for use, such as playing and burning, when people are testing, and it also it increases the speed and responsiveness of the OS. [10:54] almoxarife: it didn't say what stage it was in, just that it was installing [10:54] Finally :) [10:54] I am convinced that it is available here now: http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ [10:55] msb__:it is [10:55] Any webdevelopers here that only use Ubuntu? how is day to day usage & do you run Photoshop etc in Virtualbox etc? [10:55] just not announced yet [10:55] The toram option for the live cd should be default because it not only frees up the cd drive for use, such as: playing and burning, when people are testing, and it also it increases the speed and responsiveness of the OS. [10:55] daskog, here [10:55] daskog: Yeah I use Ubuntu for development, testing and deployment [10:56] daskog, i run photoshop and dreamweaver in vbox on ubuntu ... works great [10:56] daskog: it's fine....best platform I've ever used [10:56] I do it the other way around, I run Ubuntu in VBox :) [10:56] proq: from my experience with wubi, I found that it would always hang on a wifi connection if the connection was not an open connection [10:56] #Does anyone know why it still says it is a beta release in the update manager?!?! [10:56] daskog, im running kubuntu. when i have to use PS im starting win 7 in virtualbox [10:56] daskog: To be honest...I find Inkscape better for mock-ups and vectors that Photoshop/Illustrator [10:56] yes I will try this 11.04 on vbox [10:56] andeeeuk, 11.04 isnt released yet [10:56] How is performance for Virtualbox apps like Adobe suite? [10:56] don't even need Wine [10:56] almoxarife: ok good to know, I'll try with a cable [10:56] no? I am downloading it from http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ [10:57] I am most comfortable with Ubuntu... Have not used windows for quite some time now... [10:57] daskog: Give Inkscape a try...it's really clean and fast compared to Adobe suite [10:57] jatt, yes but not in the repos [10:57] daskog, performance is great on my machine... cant really see alot of diff [10:57] use win 7 on it [10:57] Congratulations!! [10:57] when will be the official annoucement? [10:57] Marco1, I heard in 7 minutes [10:57] proq: if you connect the cable without doing anything else it may go on [10:57] Incarus6: ok thanks. [10:57] daskog: you will probably want to hate it a whole due to the new learning curve.....but it's save as native SVG [10:57] I will check back soon :) [10:57] Thank you msb link is working for me. [10:57] Inskscape looks really good [10:57] daskog: which has a lot of advatages for web dev [10:57] 10% downloaded ^_^ [10:57] daskog: even more so soon [10:58] seniseni: 10% of ubuntu 11.04? [10:58] what you mean? [10:58] s/whole/while [10:58] proq: yep [10:58] Its availaable [10:58] any pointers how to install ubuntu in virtualbox? host ubuntu [10:58] But, recently i made a big mistake of swithching to KDE! [10:58] seniseni: awesome, I'm going to go to bed and install 11.04 tomorrow with wubi :D [10:58] proq: gl ^_^ [10:58] nashj: it is not a misstake, you just took a wrong turn XD [10:59] proq: I don't think wubi works with 11.04, check first [10:59] how can i make the computer always connect automatically to a wlan [10:59] ribot, connect once and it should auto add to your default connections [10:59] ribot: set the connection to auto [11:00] you can check your wlan0 right clicking the networking-manager-gnome icon [11:00] guest345345, http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/chromium (German) says, that chromium in the repo is modified [11:00] Hello [11:00] seniseni: where is it available? === Sagramor is now known as _Sagramor_ [11:00] Is Ubuntu 11.04 release [11:00] hey looks like it's out [11:01] When will the Natty be released today? [11:01] which is best to use google chrome or chromium ? [11:01] http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-cdimages/natty/release/ [11:01] nyoger: chromium [11:01] nyoger, chromium is modified by the distributors [11:01] Hey everyone, does anyone know how I can tell apt that my package is being managed by another packaging system? Which boils down to: it should mark the package as installed but not actually install it and set a flag such that the package will not be updated if there's a new version in the tree... [11:01] someone should start up a bit here that prints the direct links every time someone says "11.04" [11:01] bot* [11:01] http://news.softpedia.com/news/Ubuntu-11-04-Officially-Released-197181.shtml [11:02] Is announcement for Natty done? [11:02] Incarus6, i'm sure source code is available [11:02] chromium is totally open source [11:02] im almost download it [11:02] linuxfreaker: it's not released yet [11:02] Incarus6: do you read German? [11:02] but torrents down [11:02] almoxarife: where do i set this [11:02] Incarus6: cuz I have no idea what that says lol [11:02] FloodBot2 sets mode -q #ubuntu vibhav!*@* what does that mean? [11:02] I see that there's a --no-upgrade option, but that does not prevent apt from actually installing the package... [11:02] guest345345, I am german, lol [11:02] Torrents up [11:02] Incarus6: oh :) [11:02] How softpedia saying "officially released" [11:02] really? [11:02] Incarus6: does it say what they modify?

[11:06] pretty decent dl speed. i thought the server would be hammered [11:06] I prefer doing an update [11:06] If people can't have a new install looking exactly like their old install within 15 minutes...they're doing something wrong [11:06] a lot easier [11:06] why cant I send anything to th #ubuntu-release-channel??????? [11:06] Between Ubuntu One and a config script.....I can have an identical system within about 10 minutes [11:06] from a single command [11:07] is upgrading my ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04 also removes my virtual box OS?

[11:14] guest345345: if the topic is not warning enough.... [11:15] harvi: o_O [11:15] did you drop the bomb? [11:15] well...I would have thought common sence should be enough [11:15] Has anyone worked with .htaccess and .htpasswd and which is best? I would like to password a directory. [11:15] but..... [11:15] sense* [11:15] Curly_Q: best? anyway, #httpd is your friend [11:16] Thanks. [11:16] the ftp is requesting passwords [11:16] topic says... Do not say it's released or post links to it until the Release Manager says so, or you may be banned without warning. [11:16] I think we're a few minutes from official announcement [11:16] Curly_Q: .htaccess and .htpasswd are entirely different things [11:16] I suggest Nginx as a fix to that [11:16] #nginx [11:17] 2mbps isnt bad http download [11:17] as a fix to Apache's hideous inefficiency I mean [11:17] the link i saw erleier [11:17] weeMbps [11:17] Anouncement or not iso I am downloading is a good one I hope :) [11:17] Thanks Guest345345 [11:17] is that the official release of server 11.04??

[11:21] does anyone know if the 11.04 power regression will be fixed in a future update, or if it will be pushed out to 11.10?

[11:22] kaatta, /etc/apt/sources.list [11:22] I'm still a noob but i think it's "vm" to edit it [11:22] !sbackup [11:22] sbackup is a tool to create complete and/or incremental backups (which can be scheduled to be automatic, and can be done over a network). It is available in !Universe [11:22] is natty out yet? [11:22] kaatta: nubs shouldn't be editing that file [11:22] yea, thats what i just asked... but telling me /ext/apt/sources.list means absolutely nothing to me [11:22] something like - vm /etc/apt/sources.list [11:22] robert05ad, you mean vim? [11:22] kaatta: What are you trying to do? [11:22] yeah vim sorry [11:23] kaatta, that is the file location [11:23] im trying to add debian source to my sources to get a LXDE compatible composite manager [11:23] kaatta, in the terminal type vi /etc/apt/sources.list [11:23] kaatta, whats the problem? [11:23] ty ymer for answering something i could understand [11:23] kaatta, sudo nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list [11:23] Ymer-: didnt'y uo forget the "sudo"? [11:23] kaatta, no problem [11:23] isn't 11.04 still out? [11:23] and vim is installed by default...not everyone loves vim [11:23] ah yes, correct [11:23] isnt* [11:23] then ctrl O to save and ctrl x to exit [11:24] kaatta, ^ [11:24] kaatta, nano is easier to use than vi [11:24] kaatta, if your new i would suggest gedit [11:24] what do i need to do to edit that? i may be wrong but ymer, your instructions appear to just show me the contents of the file [11:24] kaatta, in the terminal type "sudo [vi/nano/vim/pico] /etc/apt/sources.list" [11:24] gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list [11:24] that's probably the easiest way for a "nub" [11:25] people! we need to flood twitter! If we get around 1 tweet per-second for about half an hour we'll be among the trending topics [11:25] kaatta, if you have gedit you can try "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" [11:25] harvi: gksudo [11:25] guest345345: oh..damn. sry youre right gksudo [11:26] harvi i type that and get "command not found" [11:26] Ctrl+Alt+T for terminal [11:26] gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list [11:27] be careful [11:27] kaatta, "gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" should work, sry my bad. you must run it in terminal. press CTRL+ALT+T and type that command there. gedit will open, you edit that file and save changes. than you can close terminal and gedit [11:28] harvi, i appear to not have gedit, i am apt-get installing it [11:28] shouldn't ubuntu 11.04 be released today?

[11:52] tomasz: it's not a bad site [11:52] when is 11.04 releasing ? [11:52] stREaKer: today at 18:00 GMT as usually [11:52] there is 11.04 so why is not good ??

[11:53] velcroshooz, i thought that there was something preventing compiz from working in lxde? or can you help me get it going? [11:53] jrib, there is a 11.04 relased so why is bad ? [11:53] tomasz: because that's not the final version until it's announced as such. [11:53] jrib: I can upgrade with all my setting right ?

[11:53] jason223: the unity desktop is now default [11:54] kaatta, i dont run lxde myself i cannot say. but standard ubuntu comes with compiz included. [11:54] stREaKer: once it's released, update-manager will ask you if you want to upgrade [11:54] jason223: there is only desktop and server edition in the future [11:54] ohk thanks :) [11:54] jrib, what will be changed ? if it was add today ? [11:54] tomasz: maybe nothing, maybe something. [11:54] has anyone succesfully migrated from virtualbox to HDD? using dd? ubuntu 10.10 btw [11:54] velcroshooz, unfortunately ubuntu wont run on this machine, but lubuntu runs very very smoothly [11:55] jrib, ok i undestand, i download on pendrive and test, after download official and install [11:55] kaatta, a composite manager is going to be more cpu and graphics intensive, so that may not be the best option for you then [11:55] i dont get why mirrors grabbed it [11:55] WaltherFI: I see. You mean netbook can use desktop version because the unity is suitable for netbook? [11:55] 11.04 coming out today?

[12:04] I have a question. [12:04] Barnabas, I have a Sahara monitor, lol.. Can't find it.. However I have the modeline info... but just not sure how to define it in xorg.conf if I remove all other monitor arguments it wont work, if I put it on the first line it still doesn't work... if I specify 1024X760_80 it defeaults back to 50hz refresh rate [12:04] curt: use a live cd, that's probably the easiest way for you. You could even do it with your desktop install cd [12:04] i want backuo my very new installed system [12:04] jrib: are you talking about an upgrade? [12:04] Barnabas, just not sure how to decode the modeline to horizotal and vertical [12:05] curt: no [12:05] is it possible with remastersys ? [12:05] velcroshooz eh says the firmware tools for eyesight are installed, is that right? [12:05] curt: you can access and copy your data when you boot from the desktop cd (it's a live cd so you run the OS right from the cd) [12:05] <_bugz_> nabbies, interested?

[12:16] ^Phantom2^: yw [12:16] curt: well tbh ive never upgraded myself..but im guna do that this time from 10.10 to 11.04.....sometimes breakage occurs if you have outdated hardware i think...and maybe because the things that you had like a library 2.1 , in the new repo, it may be a library 3.0...its worth the try imo..you can always do a fresh install after that [12:16] sorry long msg [12:16] curt: yeah, really it will only matter if you use repositories that affect core packages.

[12:22] hello i need help. i deleted /home/user/.bashrc* and /root/.bashrc* [12:22] is it wrong ?? [12:22] DaSMarK: it's not wrong. But if you want to restore it, you can find a copy in /etc/skel/ [12:22] jaredquinn, but they are working properly because i can run unity from the terminal and it works perfectly [12:22] Am using P67A-UD3R motherbaord and the on board sound driver is not working on ubuntu 10.10 [12:22] thanks [12:22] jrib: thanks, I'm looking through the online stuff and it seems hit and miss [12:22] streaker : paste the Audio Multimedia line from the output of lspci [12:22] ashmew2: How to do that [12:23] Applications (top left corner) > Accessories > Terminal [12:23] thegoodcushion: if you want mine and are in the boston area, I was about to toss it in the dumpster (it works fine, just don't use it anymore) [12:23] ^Phantom2^: read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java [12:23] <^Phantom2^> I keep getting zero results for java6 [12:23] streaker: enter the command in the terminal [12:23] jaredquinn, maybe there is a key in gconf that defines the default desktop, do you have any idea? [12:23] jrib: No I'm not near there [12:23] Good evening. I feel stupid, but how do I update my version of Ubuntu? [12:23] thegoodcushion: ok :) [12:23] ubuntu+1 is invite only?

Thanks! have a great night [12:24] akashm1990: says the same to me [12:24] <^Phantom2^> how interesting [12:24] Brian911: keep in mind that 11.04 is not released yet, so you'll have to wait a bit [12:24] <^Phantom2^> terminal and synaptic both couldn't find it [12:24] <^Phantom2^> but the link on that page you linked me is getting it installed [12:24] <^Phantom2^> thankies :D [12:24] DJKorbit: so you can launch Unity from the terminal and it works, but what about everything else that supports it in the session, like compiz failing \(which is the likely culprit if your vid drivers are not quite right) [12:24] Oh. I think I am off by a day or two. Thanks for the link though.

[12:27] ashmew2: what does it mean to you? :P I have selected the default playback ... works on both the card and USB device [12:27] why was i annoying?? [12:27] Black_Phantom: you are annoying [12:27] <^Phantom2^> so time will tell, zvacet [12:27] raju: You'll probably find that most linux magazines will have cover cd's with 11.04 on fairly soon [12:27] paranox: move to your Mom's basement. [12:27] jaredquinn: to india also ? [12:27] vibhav: I suggest you be quiet while you're here or go to #ubuntu-ops and ask [12:27] rgr: she is still on dialup [12:27] i have canon mp210 printer and works great with my unbutu [12:27] paranox Elaborate and justify.

No wonder Ubuntu is considered the fanboi distro. [12:29] IS it released GUYS?

[12:30] jrib : what do I do there? [12:30] <^Phantom2^> Yeah, I told it to launch with sun [12:30] DJKorbit: I don't have a few locale settings and no session value [12:30] hi [12:30] vibhav: you can sort out why you are banned [12:30] Yes? === petey1 is now known as petey [12:30] can I trust Computer Janitor?

[12:31] how do i upgrade from beta 2 ? [12:31] vibhav: any idea ? [12:31] Oday: better use debfoster and deborphan directly, Computer Janitor is junk [12:31] DJKorbit: that would just be used by login to pick the default one. you should still be able to select it at login [12:31] hello [12:31] <^Phantom2^> zvacet, me either [12:31] thegoodcushion: i was having a bit of a look [12:31] lemme see [12:31] thegoodcushion: it looks like it supports wifi? [12:31] <^Phantom2^> I'm trying a fresh install of it [12:31] how can i do that, jatt? and what about the "apt-get autoremove" command? [12:31] hi ubuntu 11.04 is out [12:31] soulfly: with updates [12:31] dim_: you are annoying [12:31] jaredquinn: yes [12:31] thegoodcushion: so network printing using something like hpjetdirect i guess [12:31] Mitchell_: you are annoying [12:31] thegoodcushion: which is pretty standard. [12:31] tPl0ch: you are annoying [12:31] Need some help with ICE and status 256 errors messages [12:32] Naib: you are annoying [12:32] stop that, paranox [12:32] thegoodcushion: there are reports of people getting it working on 10.10 if you just google "Ubuntu HP 3050" [12:32] In my update-manager, the check fails because some of the PPAs I added don't have natty versions yet (I'm on beta2). Will this affect me being able to upgrade to release? [12:32] jaredquinn: well that's all very well for Windows but what about Ubuntu? [12:32] I"m trying to update from beta 2 with update manager but says no updates [12:32] Oday: yeah that's good but deborphan will probably find more unused packages for you [12:32] ^Phantom2^: I believe you do [12:32] how to upgeade kernel from 2.6.35-22 to latest 2.6.38? [12:32] paranox: ? [12:32] Oday: apt-get autoremove will clear the useless pkg's in u r PC [12:32] use update-manager [12:32] Naib: yeah? [12:32] thegoodcushion: as i said. it's pretty standard.. i've been printing with hpjetdirect from UNIX boxes for 15 years. === ^Phantom2^ is now known as ^Phantom^ [12:32] it is out but there is no link to downloading it perhaps in 1 or 2hrs it should be start downloading [12:32] paranox: and you smell like week old pickles [12:33] paranox: stop telling people they are annoying. THAT is annoying [12:33] servers need time to propagate the new iso's, an official release worldwide is going to take some time. [12:33] Naib: why would you say that to me? [12:33] KNUBBIG: in source list disable these ppa by putting # in front of their lines [12:33] Naib: you are a gay cunt [12:33] * jiltdil good news it is downloading now [12:33] someone is raping the ubuntu repo servers... oh wait [12:33] bye* === XuMuK is now known as XuMuK|ZNC === nickmoeck is now known as Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh [12:34] zvacet, hm ok thx === Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh is now known as nickmoeck [12:34] zvacet: Doesn't the update-manager do that for you? [12:34] hhello. why is 32 bit 11.04 ubuntu recommended? does the 64 bit version have more bugs? [12:34] notepad++ in linux? === KNUBBIG is now known as yey [12:34] burg: 32bit has always been more widely tested === yey is now known as KNUBBIG [12:34] burg, is more stable the 32 bit one === Internat is now known as WDSkaet [12:34] txomon: get wine man [12:34] why is the 32bit version recomended i currently use a 32bit on a 64bit machine and was hoping to switch to 64bit but the recommended there makes me wonder if i'll then have trouble with lib32 and stuff in order to run 32bit apps any ideas? [12:34] no one here on sandy bridge? [12:34] spread the word, it's finally out!...lol === WDSkaet is now known as Internat [12:34] do you get op status all of a sudden or are you already an OP and stay undercover :P [12:34] raju, no wine, want native [12:34] <^Phantom^> zvacet, so far so good (fresh install) [12:34] jaredquinn: maybe I'm not sure but a way I told it iss for sure [12:35] ooo release says it is out === Kage is now known as wootwoot === MichealH is now known as MichealH[Release === MichealH[Release is now known as Micheal[Release] [12:35] burg: use 64bit if you want to, there's no real reason to use 32bit if your computer can use 64bit [12:35] burg, most software is still written for 32 bit. some proprietary apps are not going to run on 64 bit without a chroot or multilib setup. It just means 32 bit is better supported at the moment. [12:35] you bloody idiots: who made the popup window with the new-version-announcement that steals the keyboard focus? [12:35] txoman gedit will do everything [12:35] burg:just use 64bit === buff27 is now known as torrentLink [12:35] Hey, I am having trouble with defective packages === nickmoeck is now known as CanWePleaseTalkN [12:35] Ubuntu is a clusterfuck.

[12:36] old news [12:36] mythri: http://www.psychocats.org/ [12:36] when i put "deborphan" in terminal, i get a list of packages, this tool just finds the orphaned packages for me? [12:36] jrib: So far I am only getting messages that I have to repair them [12:37] mythri, the user you login with is going to have your settings [12:37] jrib, what about whay velcroshooz said? [12:37] not really which ones... and apt-get -f install doesn't work either [12:37] eltigre: messages where? [12:37] ^Phantom^:I'M not a gamer so all I can help you with is to install java package sorry maybe someone else know better === wootwoot is now known as KAge [12:37] !backup | mythri [12:37] Oday: try [12:37] mythri: There are many ways to back your system up.

[12:37] mythri: ask him to name the software and see if it affects you :) (there isn't much) [12:37] jrib, synaptic and apt-get === KAge is now known as Kage [12:37] Oday: with sudo of course [12:37] mythri: http://www.psychocats.net/ sorry its .net not .org [12:37] eltigre: and what's the exact message you receive from apt-get? [12:38] obengdako, by proprietary i mean games and the like, most apps are going to run fine in 64 bit. very few are going to be 32 bit specific these days. [12:38] Oday: there's not much use for deborphan nowadays. That functionality is built into apt-get now [12:38] jrib, i have to reinstall the ubuntu ......before that i was tryin to recover my ubuntu documents and files from windows xp partition..my ubuntu doesnt work now [12:38] <^Phantom^> that's okay, zvacet, I think I might poke around their forums and see if they know anything [12:38] raju, it is a plugin in which you have a local cache copy of the server files you open, and while edditing them, changes are stored in cache [12:38] txomon: had u poke the google about this [12:38] and when you save they are uploaded [12:38] somebody please send me download link of ubuntu 11.04 [12:38] still deborphan finds unused packages which apt-get doesn't [12:38] hi all. I can use ping from cmd-line fine but I cannot ping any server using the ubuntu built in Network Tools Ping. It always receives 0 packages. I changed the interface under "Devices" to wlan0 but still, no result [12:39] obengdako: ask him to name the actual software and see if it affects you (there isn't much) [12:39] thien: join #ubuntu-release-party [12:39] jrib, when i did that i only got a back of ROOT.DISK [12:39] jrib: I only have the German version, but roughly: aborting due to problems in pkgProblemResolver::Resolve [12:39] My UPDATE MANGER reads: "New Ubuntu release '11.04' is available! [12:39] they were all given the Abort choice, jrib [12:39] thien:just go to ubuntu home page [12:39] velcroshooz, so won't installing lib32 and stuff solve those issues because i don't want to have to switch back and forth and can you name some? [12:39] raju, yes, but didnt find nothing reliable [12:39] txomo : code.google.com/p/gedit-ftp-browser/ - Similar [12:39] eltigre: you're trying to upgrade? [12:39] Hi alll! [12:39] <^Phantom^> zvacet, i'm gonna try playing offline [12:39] jrib, not really [12:39] jrib, thanks that is a good question do you use 64bit yourself [12:39] obengdako: I've used 64bit for years, yes [12:39] obengdako, lib32 stuff in a 64 bit system is multilib, which should work fine. [12:40] the ISOs uploaded a couple of hours ago, are they "it"? [12:40] <^Phantom^> i haven't tried that way yet, to see if it happens there [12:40] anyone using ubuntu on virtual machine? [12:40] mythri: I don't follow what you are saying [12:40] jrib, i may still have to download 32bit because i run installations for friends who come with varied machines [12:40] eltigre: prefix your command with "LANG=C" and pastebin [12:40] rapha: yes [12:40] i cant speak [12:40] is it better to run 32 or 64 bit if my hardware supports 64? [12:41] in ubuntu+1 [12:41] obengdako: hmm, not sure what "run installations for friends" means [12:41] jrib, is there a way to change to 64bit on a 32bit machine maybe a kernel change? [12:41] 32bit is allways better [12:41] jiltdil: how much ram do you have? [12:41] jrib, my ubuntu works no more and tried doing back of ubuntu files from diskinternals software i got a file called ROOT.DISK will it have all my documents and files in it? [12:41] jrib:4gb [12:41] obengdako: no, you'd have to reinstall [12:41] jrib, hm it's about python packages... wait a moment [12:41] jiltdil: use 64bit [12:41] jatt: thanks! ... because the homepage of the website has been changed only now [12:41] obengdako, that would require a reinstall [12:41] jrib:ok [12:41] use 64-bit [12:41] Incarus6: i wouldn't say "always" better but there's circumstances where its better [12:41] mythri: ah, I do not know [12:41] i mean people get their cds from me jrib [12:41] obengdako: you mean CDs with packages? [12:42] jiltdil, 32bit got a better hardware support, things like flash won't work with 64bit properly [12:42] ^Phantom^: sorry I was not much of help all the best with game [12:42] my ubuntu works no more and tried doing back of ubuntu files from diskinternals software i got a file called ROOT.DISK will it have all my documents and files in it? i want to do a reinstall of ubuntu..does anyone knows it? please help me i m new to ubuntu [12:42] <^Phantom^> zvacet, so far no crash yet, playing locally [12:42] jrib: http://pastebin.com/jqReU10t [12:42] flash works fine on 64bit [12:42] Incarus6: its been a long time since flash didnj't work properly w/ 64bit... it works fine now [12:42] velcroshooz, jrib then hmmmm i guess this year i'll be selfish and download for just my machine any 32bit guy can't use my cd now [12:42] Ah, it looks as if I have this bug :) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-nettool/+bug/709945 [12:42] Ubuntu bug 709945 in gnome-nettool (Ubuntu) "Ping does not work in network Tools" [Undecided,New] [12:42] 64bit hasn't had those problems in a long time [12:42] so [12:42] is flash really supposed to work fine on ubuntu? [12:42] someone told me 64 bit was 100% as good as 32 bit. Is that not true? [12:43] unity was slow [12:43] Incarus6:ok thanks any way to make it better "flash' to work fine in 64bit [12:43] I'm always getting like 100% cpu usage from literally nothing [12:43] eltigre: « apt-cache policy python » Where did this strange python version come from? [12:43] anyone else find unity kinda slowish? [12:43] there: really? [12:43] rgr: it's true [12:43] yea [12:43] eltigre, yes flash player works fine [12:43] KM0201, I can see still today a lot of 64bit related issues, were is no reason to change to 64bit (except the unix-time-problem) [12:43] jrib, I have no idea === Micheal[Release] is now known as MichealH [12:43] jaredquinn: I reckon I'll just ask periodically here to see what people are experiencing. I can't seem to find up to date info online [12:43] jaredquinn: noticeably slower [12:43] there: something wrong there then.. it's designed to be fast and lightweight, which is my experience so far. [12:43] eltigre: what does that command return? [12:43] jrib: not according to jus about every google I have done. Wishful thinking. [12:43] hmm [12:43] <[deXter]> Hi all, how can I tell if this ubuntu ISO I downloaded is 32 or 64 bit? [12:43] there: for me it was... but i'm running 11.04 on an ancient machine.. i just switched to xfce.. i knew that change would come about eventually [12:43] very slow [12:43] well it's not like really lagging or anything [12:43] what is the iso name deXter [12:43] rgr: flash works as fine for me as it does on 32bit or on windows. I don't know... [12:43] eltrige, the latest flash version uses the experimental hardware acceleration, that could causes trouble [12:43] ^Phantom^: well it is something [12:44] there: so what was slow? [12:44] i386 = 32bit [12:44] <[deXter]> buzzkill: lubuntu-10.10.iso [12:44] Incarus6: there's no way you can make such a general statement ilke that, and it even be remotely accurate. [12:44] [deXter], run "file" against any binary on it [12:44] surely you realize that [12:44] <[Soma]> hey... I just got up and had 47 updates, one of them being "libkmediaplayer4", and my updating process stopped with "preparing libkmediaplayer4". it's been like that for about 10 minutes. what do I do? [12:44] jrib: works for you. ok. Well the facts are that it doesnt for many others. And to say otherwise is misleading and dishonest. [12:44] hello [12:44] !md5sums | [deXter] [12:44] [deXter]: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes for the md5sums of Ubuntu discs. [12:44] it was sort of..hmm.. i kinda have to log back into it and check again [12:44] * KM0201 is just glad VLC is finally fixed [12:44] <[deXter]> None of this is of any help ... the lubuntu CD doesn't have an md5 listed on that page [12:44] jrib, http://dpaste.com/536729/ [12:44] rgr: I don't believe that's the fact. Flash can be installed and works as fine as flash generally works (hogs cpu, etc) [12:45] nonsense [12:45] <[deXter]> and the file command won't tell if the ISO contains a 64 or 32bit binary.. [12:45] I installed openldap (or at least I think I did) using apt-get but there is no slapd.conf file in the /etc/ldap directory is this normal? [12:45] [deXter], try what I said [12:45] i installed gnome 3. it's a bit faster [12:45] there: i've had other issues with it.. but speed hasn't been one of them. It hasn't been terribly stable through the Natty testing phase. [12:45] rgr: which part is nonsense? [12:45] jrib:is there a flash issue in 64bit? [12:45] there: wow.. that's kind of unexpected.. seeing gnome's been slow forever. [12:45] <[deXter]> kellnola: I did, it just says that it's a bootable ISO. [12:45] jaredquinn: that's interesting. not sure what's going on here then :| [12:45] about everything you have said. It does not work fine for everyone. And a prooerly configured flash should NOT hog the cpu. [12:45] jiltdil: no more than in 32bit :-) [12:45] eltigre: you have to figure out where that unofficial version of python came from and downgrade back to the official ubuntu version [12:46] [deXter], mount the iso, and run "file" against any binary WITHIN it [12:46] JR)cket1: :-) [12:46] jrib, I have a few ppas... [12:46] :-) [12:46] how can i make a bootable usb the best way ? [12:46] even a cursory google shows there to be hundreds if not thousands of people with Flash issues in 64 bit and/or Ubuntu in general. Frequently down to video drivers and xorg configs. [12:46] exalt:unetbootin [12:46] <[deXter]> kellnola: Well nvm, I just looked inside the iso and all the binaries had a _i386 appended to it [12:46] <[deXter]> :) [12:46] there: my guess would be it would be a video driver issue then.. maybe some software assisted rendering going on or something? [12:46] exalt, startup disk tool [12:46] rgr: well maybe you misinterpret what I mean by fine. By "fine" I mean it is usable. [12:46] For you. [12:46] Not for many others. [12:46] jaredquinn: that's what i was suspecting too [12:46] even on windows flash is a resource hog, so i agree with what jrib says. the issue is whether it is -more- resource intensive than suual [12:46] rgr: for everyone. [12:46] there: did you try unity-2d [12:46] not yet. [12:46] Why do you continue to talk nonsense. It does not work "fine" for everyone. [12:47] velcroshooz, yes, flash is kinda shitty, but it does work [12:47] jiltdil: unet bootin makes an stdin: error:0 error kellnola startup disk tool i dont know yet, lets have a look [12:47] rgr, thats enough please === ChanServ changed the topic of #ubuntu to: Official Ubuntu Support Channel | IRC Guidelines: http://goo.gl/cEF1w | IRC info: http://goo.gl/Pgv9o | Pastes to http://goo.gl/ixcN9 | Release Notes: http://goo.gl/tuSzO | Download: http://goo.gl/Ov56R | Don't be a victim of spam, see http://goo.gl/TAyvJ | Natty/11.04 is out! | 11.04 release party in #ubuntu-release-party :D [12:47] rgr: point me to a bug [12:47] And flash works fine on some linu distros and not on others. [12:47] jrib: are you being serious? Even people in this irc channel have reported issues. 2 fps is NOT "running fine". [12:47] I was an icewm user for years because gnome and kde were both too bloated.. kind of happy that people are now finally seeing that a desktop environment doesn't need to get in your way [12:47] exalt, "System Tools -> Startup Disk Creator" [12:48] rgr: 64bit is a pain in the neck for the desktop. it is excellent for servers running huge applications but for the desktop the wise thing to do is to install 32bit [12:48] kellnola: im on windows [12:48] jatt, I agree here [12:48] jatt & rgr.. I agree... [12:48] jrib: downgrading would basically deinstall most of the software I use, like firefox and gimp [12:48] Hi all, after a (seeminglly harmless) upgrade of Lucid kvm-qemu package to 0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.5, the VMs do not open VNC ports, not even from monitor console, regardless of port number. VMs otherwise run normally. Has anyone encountered this? [12:48] so anyone knows about [12:48] jatt: yes, thats more my opinion. But I dont see the need for msot people to use 32 bit. It can often hog more resources with no notable performance increase too. [12:48] I disagree. There's no reason not to use 64bit on the desktop if your hardware handles it [12:48] a plugin in which you have a local cache copy of the server files you open, and while edditing them, changes are stored in cache [12:48] s/32/64 [12:48] no probs with 64 bit on desktop here. Would not be able to use my 16GB of memory without it [12:48] if you really need 16 gigs then yes [12:49] I run a lot of VMs [12:49] then it makes sense. [12:49] My processor is an AMD Athlon x2 2.2 GHz dual core should I go for the x64 version of 11.04? [12:49] kellnola: then it's NOT a desktop [12:49] Could someone fix the goof on the front page? They call Ubuntu "license-free", and it is not. [12:49] jaredquinn, of course it is [12:49] eltigre: you need to remove that unofficial version of python [12:49] rgr: you are right, but for organizations is not rare to see servers running 64bit because their java "enterprise" applications require 64GB of ram :) [12:49] jaredquinn: huh? Of course it is. [12:49] scarra3: how much ram [12:49] jatt, LOL. yes [12:49] scarra3: how much ram do you have? [12:49] jrib: 4 GB [12:50] scarra3: use 64bit [12:50] kellnola: if you're running a heap of virtual machines on it.. then it's a server, and the service it's serving up is machines.\ [12:50] yeah, go with 64 [12:50] jaredquinn: i suppose i'll install unity 2d and try it out. [12:50] jrib: And how do I install drivers for my graphics card its an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 [12:50] jaredquinn, it's a computer. [12:50] !ati | scarra3 [12:50] scarra3: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto [12:50] scarra3, Im using 32bit with PAE -> better compatibility [12:50] this machine is 64 bit and is 4 years old with 3 gigs. Cant imageine ever needing more ram on it with a Debian install but then I dont run VMs that often. [12:50] So, how do we get rid of Unity? [12:50] I've really grown fond of removing the lower panel and installing Docky [12:50] maybe I should just install debian. [12:50] granted, very OSX-like [12:51] but that was unity too anways [12:51] crashanddie or gnome or another desktop [12:51] crashanddie, the new debian is pretty awesome [12:51] so anyone knows about an editor in which you have a local cache copy of the server files you open, and while edditing them, changes are stored in cache? [12:51] Whats the general feeling about Unity? Is it easy to turn off? [12:51] crashanddie: if you *really* want to.. at the login prompt... you just select "Classic" [12:51] i kind of like the look and feel of gnome 3 though. although that might just be the novelty of it. [12:51] scarra3: trx from system>admin #btrfs [12:51] crashanddie, there is an option when booting to choose ubuntu classic instead [12:51] crashanddie: I think you can chose a gnome session instead of a unity session on login, don't give up so fast (I know unity sucks tho) [12:51] unity is gnoe isnt it? [12:51] nope [12:51] rgr: you select "classic desktop" at the login screen to turn it off [12:51] rgr, no [12:51] rgr, it isnt [12:51] well, gnome 3 sucks, and unity is horrendous. [12:51] I can't see the future getting better at this point. [12:51] I thought it was a new WM for gnome. Oh well! [12:51] rgr, its an own developement of canonical [12:51] zvacet: Ok awesome thanks now I hope that my touchpad will finally work since it didn't work in 10.10 [12:52] crashanddie, oh well, back to windowmaker [12:52] Would anyone be kind enough to provide the md5sum hash for the released i386 desktop 11.04 or a link to same? TIA [12:52] crashaddie, Im using KDE ;) [12:52] canonical wanted unity and gnome but gnome guys were against it (you know why once you see unity) [12:52] crikey. How ridiculous. A whole new DE? Are they releasing their own desktop apps as well? [12:52] s/and/in [12:52] jatt: it's not just about the look of it either [12:52] kellnola, or I'll fork gnome2 and keep maintaining it :) [12:52] unity looks like it is meant for a touchscreen to me [12:52] all new UI take time for them to mature, when kde 4 started everyone hated it, it has come around, grnome 2.x has had -years- of dev .. [12:52] rgr, correct [12:52] eek [12:53] why you think that unity is bad ? [12:53] jatt: it's designed with a slightly different appraoch to how a desktop environment should hang together, and ultimately you will have gnome, kde and other apps all running happily under it, rendering their bits the right way, sending notifications to teh right places and everything being magical. [12:53] jatt, Im going to test unity in a couple of minutes. but im not sure about unity. I got a proprietary graphic card driver [12:53] crashanddie: just select 'Ubuntu Classic' in the login screen... [12:53] damicita: I don't.. I love it. [12:53] yeah but canonical doesn't have the resources to maintain unity in the long term, gnome can be hated but they have lots of experience and developers on their side [12:53] but yes, it's easier to go emo about unity and install debian than click one dropdown... [12:53] You can still start in gnome by choosing ubuntu classic at login [12:53] damicita: but only because i've been digging around deep within it for a few weeks [12:53] damicita, no support for proprietary graphic cards [12:53] scarra3: np I hope it will work [12:53] jrib: hm... another stupid question, I tried to do that with synaptic but I can't actually perform the action because it says I have to repair defective packages [12:53] jaredquinn: it will mother all the different DE apps to look and life the same? Ha. I will believe that when I see it. [12:53] s/life/feel [12:53] oh ... [12:54] zvacet: Ya its an alps touchpad on my sony vaio [12:54] is it easy to test unity and then turn it off? [12:54] g4 YES [12:54] So Ubuntu 11.04 has been released, a big THANK YOU to all the devs and contributors! :) [12:54] jaredquinn: link? [12:54] what is the fastest download accelerator for ubuntu? [12:54] g4, repos [12:54] ty [12:54] Btw do the torrents work yet [12:54] g4: read above [12:54] g4: you just select CLASSIC at the login prompt [12:54] g4: and you get gnome\ [12:54] g4, http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/unity [12:54] * rgr predicts unity will produce yet another incompatible suite of apoplication setting repositories and people will get very frustrated ... [12:54] ahh great :) [12:54] FFS [12:54] Read the doco people. [12:54] eltigre: in synaptic fix broken packages [12:54] <3 Ubuntu! [12:55] zvacet, won't work [12:55] Hi all, after a (seeminglly harmless) upgrade of Lucid kvm-qemu package to 0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.5, the VMs do not open VNC ports, not even from monitor console, regardless of port number. VMs otherwise run normally. Has anyone encountered this? [12:55] jaredquinn: easy on the language please [12:55] ... and please give unity a chance.. and not just for five mintues. [12:55] but I think I found a way now [12:55] any UDS organizers here? [12:55] sigh .... thought there would be at least 2000 ppl in here ... [12:55] ikonia: what are you talking about? He didnt swear. [12:55] disappointed? [12:55] ultimately unity will die if they don't provide software that pleases the user [12:55] rgr: yes he did [12:55] No he didn't. [12:55] no matter how smart their idea/architecture is [12:55] i get a strange bug, during boot my keyboard led is turning off and nothing will happen,if i press the power button the keyboard led will turn on and the bott continue [12:55] eltigre: in terminal sudo dpkg --configure -a sudo apt-get -f install [12:55] woot woot in the boot [12:56] rgr, lets move on [12:56] zvacet, thanks [12:56] Hell guys [12:56] good idea.. I didn't literally swear, but the implication was definitely carried in what i said. So you are both right. [12:56] did he say "hell"? [12:56] ban him! ;) [12:56] are there any known chipsets that are buggy with Unity? [12:57] not important [12:57] eltigre: np [12:57] why would chipsets be buggy with unity? [12:57] wow i am getting slow speed on the new release downloading [12:57] What's Narwhal in Arabic :-D ? [12:57] they would be buggy with compiz :) [12:57] zetheroo, yes, all proprietary graphic cards arent supported in unity-3D [12:57] Does anybody know, if the nasty broken dependencies on nvidia-96 drivers was fixed with 11.04? [12:57] rgr, 'cause unity requires 3D [12:57] DirtyDawg: thats a surprise on release day. [12:57] zetheroo: Unity can't casuse you issues with teh chipset... [12:57] hehe [12:57] rgr: or Unity being buggy with chipsets ... [12:57] there is unity-2d [12:57] Im running sandy bridge which works ok but graphics is poor. 2d support only [12:57] lots of tearing etc [12:57] zetheroo: but.. there has been a few issues with the Intel lappy chipsets .. but they have been a kernel issue. [12:57] Incarus6: Intel? [12:57] Does anybody know, if the nasty broken dependencies on nvidia-96 drivers was fixed with 11.04? [12:57] karlhunt: which drivers? [12:57] karlhunt, did you try the latest manline kernel? [12:57] default [12:58] jaredquinn: darn .. that is too bad [12:58] !repeat | eduard [12:58] zetheroo, intel drivers arent proprietary, as I remember [12:58] eduard: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [12:58] الناروال الأنيق ؟ [12:58] Eduard: nvidia issues? have you used sgfxi? [12:58] Incarus6, I just keep up to date with the ubuntu kernel [12:58] rgr: sec [12:58] is there a more upstream one? [12:58] so how is unity compared to docky? Is it a step forward or something different? [12:58] g4: is crap compared to gnome do [12:59] !arabic | CVirus [12:59] CVirus: For Arabic language support, please : /join #ubuntu-arabic : للحصول على الدعم باللغة العربية [12:59] I have a laptop with an Intel gfx chipset ... I would rather not upgrade only to find out the 3D Unity doesn't work ... [12:59] rgr: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-96/+bug/741930 [12:59] There is a terrible tendency for those that offer the least help in this group to be the ones popping in with the most net nannying. Its very sad. [12:59] Ubuntu bug 741930 in nvidia-graphics-drivers-96 (Ubuntu) "[natty] nvidia binary packages for older cards - dependencies not met" [Undecided,Confirmed] [12:59] rgr: no updates on it for quite a while [12:59] zetheroo, otherwise try unity-2D [12:59] zetheroo, unity worked on my old gma intel chipset but sandy bridge has a new one. [12:59] karlhunt, are you using 11.04? [12:59] Incarus6: but I REALLY want the 3D :) [12:59] Incarus6, yup [13:00] karlhunt, Im not sure about the kernel version, what was it again in Natty? [13:00] Eduard: I had issues with liquorix kernels with nvidia too. I dropped the liquorix usage as a result. [13:00] Incarus6, been running beta for a few weeks and did a dist-upgrade last night [13:00] zetheroo: what chipset are you on? [13:00] karlhunt: mine is Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 [13:00] Incarus6, 2.6.38-8-generic [13:00] Intel graphics? [13:01] it will be google-earth on ubuntu 11.04 ? [13:01] good luck with that.. [13:01] jaredquinn: GM965/GL96 [13:01] karlhunt, yeah, that looks actual. I read something about the sandy bridge drivers in the changelog. cant remember if it was 2.6.38 or 2.6.39 [13:01] I think my chip is an intel hd3000 whatever that is [13:02] how do I know if mine is a "sandy bridge" chipset? [13:02] zetheroo, I wasn't talking to you? [13:02] zetheroo: is that the same driver as the i915 / Arrandale? [13:02] hi friends ...we all know that ubuntu partitions are going to be mounted without any password . but i wanna make some security to my harddisk partitions while mounting them . so can any one help me to solve this problem [13:03] zetheroo: I think it is. [13:03] dammit, I can't upgrade [13:03] zetheroo: you asked me what my chipset was ... [13:03] zetheroo: my problem is only when the screen is coming back after a hibernate [13:03] genupulas: you'd have to encrypt them, i don't think it's entirely trivial [13:03] offically realesed now? [13:03] vibhav: yes [13:03] vibhav, yes [13:03] LjL: how can i do that [13:03] guys, where do i find 11.04 release notes? [13:03] jaredquinn: ok ... well I don't hibernate my machine ... [13:03] zetheroo, did you buy it in the last 2 months and is it core i5/i7 if not then unlikely [13:03] jaredquinn try 2 times press change screen on keyboard [13:03] OK! [13:04] Fn + F4 i have [13:04] karlhunt: hehe ... ok ... nah this is an R61 Thinkpad ... C2D [13:04] screen back [13:04] zetheroo, your graphics will be fine [13:04] cool [13:04] then I am really tempted to upgrade :) [13:04] Can anyone give me a decent network traffic controller (ping and alerts if rtt reaches a certain #ms) with graphic UI preferably? The built in NM in ubuntu 10.10 does not work. Thank you for your appreciation. [13:04] LjL: now i am doing in my college system .do i have any links for this . i [13:05] genupulas: i can't point you to a specific document because help.ubuntu.com has a few of them and i honestly don't know which ones are currently recommended. try skimming through the stuff at http://www.google.com/search?q=encrypt+partitions+site:help.ubuntu.com [13:05] whooot, I cant upgrade :D can someone have a look: http://pastebin.com/ac3tH5g5 [13:05] zetheroo: just do it :) [13:05] zetheroo: I've been running it for a couple of weeks.. and not had any major issues [13:05] jaredquinn: they always say that ... . [13:05] LjL: cool , i hope ubuntu forums can solve this . ....any way thanks man [13:06] !encryption | genupulas [13:06] genupulas: For information on setting up encrypted private directories (8.10+) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory [13:06] zetheroo, yeah, if all you use the computer for is web browsing and irc ... I am frankly horrified about video editing. 10.10 is bad enough [13:06] MaRk-I: thank you man [13:06] Incarus6: you've a bunch of stuff installed from other repos? I'm guessing maybe Ubuntu Studio? [13:07] jaredquinn: ok ... here goes everything ... ;) [13:07] jaredquinn, yeah.. but not ubuntu studio... any idea how I can upgrade? (or which package that causes? (maybe xorg)) [13:08] kellnola: I do a bit more than browsing and irc ... but no production level stuff [13:08] MaRk-I: that is great . i hope this can solve my issue . [13:08] icewaterman: how did you start your upgrade? [13:08] genupulas: yw, good luck [13:08] hi, can someone please point me to an Ubuntu mirror that is a) accessible with rsync and b) carries the .iso images and c) is located somewhere in Europe. I'd like to conserve some bandwidth by rsyncing from the beta2 .iso images that I already have. [13:08] jaredquinn, line 588 could cause that problem [13:08] do-release-upgrade tells me that I can't upgrade, I believe that's because I've installed kde from ppa on my current system.. what's the way forward from there? [13:09] falxx, I would remove any ppa's before upgrading. and remove the software first [13:09] falxx, isnt related with the KDE ppa [13:10] icewaterman: did you answer how you kicked that upgrade off? [13:10] incarus6: oh, well, may be virtualbox then? [13:10] falxx, pls paste /var/log/dist-upgrade/ files [13:10] Incarus6: try apt-get -f install [13:11] Incarus6: sudo apt-get -f install [13:11] HI Guys, I get strange outbound connections from unison-gtk, e.g. to 209.85.149.102 (google). Its firestarter displaying me these connections. Can somebody explain what happens? [13:11] zvacet, isn't working (it is working but doesnt fix it), because all dependencies are correct. it seems to be a too new xorg version, so I have to fix it by hand [13:11] can anyone running 11.04 confirm the seperate wallpaper for dual monitor bug is gone? in 10.10 you need to ctrl alt f7 /ctrl alt f1 for it to work [13:12] Incarus6: ok then I didn' try natty yet [13:12] zvacet, im still in 10.10 [13:12] * AdmV0rl0n hates unity :/ [13:12] Incarus6: did you do a update-manager and then let it handle all the other bits? [13:12] AdmV0rl0n: why? [13:13] jaredquinn, yes. did you look at line 588? [13:13] When my screen dims it lags coming back out. Im going to try an upstream kernel [13:14] Incarus6: the one that says Fixing mountall:i386 via keep of plymouth:i386 [13:14] jaredquinn, http://pastebin.com/ac3tH5g5 no [13:16] apt-get dist-upgrade is it enough for updating my beta natty to the final release? [13:16] obscurant1st: should be [13:16] if you need to do it cli-based try do-release-upgrade (should be in the package update-manager-core) [13:17] ashmew2, do-release-upgrade ?

I have no idea what the UI designers think they are doing, but they are not building anything of value. [13:19] hi all, is there a good application i can use to keep track of tasks, with that minimizes to the tray maybe?

[13:29] I'm using Gnome [13:29] really, 32 bit is for 1GB or less, anything more gives a performance hit vs. 64 bit. I can't imagine anyone having 1GB on a desktop these days.

[13:29] william2, better try "sudo start gdm" or "sudo stop gdm" [13:29] william2: then gedit won't work. use "sudo nano" instead, it's quite easy to use as an editor [13:30] jrib: thanks [13:30] It saok [13:30] kellnola, some of us dont want to deal with multilib issues, so stick with 32 [13:30] And I installed amd radeon 6850 hd drivers (catalyst) and i haven't fully window effects [13:30] :S [13:30] where can we look window effects ?

I can't find anything indicating a reason for this in syslog, where should I look? It seems to be a normal shutdown as started by running sudo halt - windows close one by one until only the desktop background is visible, then the normal splash screen shows up and the computer turns off after a while. [13:39] <[TK]D-Fender> PsyI see more than half a dozen "how-to's" in the first page of results... [13:39] kellnola: no such directory.. [13:39] i tried 11.04 on my box. im considering replace the debian on my laptop === XuMuK|ZNC is now known as XuMuK [13:39] kellnola: and I have installed slapd twice now [13:39] An_Ony_Moose [13:39] An_Ony_Moose, did you google the issue. sry [13:40] DarkStar1, dpkg -L slapd [13:40] english question : is the sentence « he's a man of the good » correct ? or grammatically right ? [13:40] nameless`, no [13:40] grammatically, yes I suppose [13:41] kellnola: even in a book ? something unusual ?n [13:41] Uhm [13:41] nameless`, well if it's creative writing ok [13:41] nameless`, it works, he's a good man is more appropriate these days, but whatev [13:42] Incarus6: what should I google? ubuntu shutdown? It isn't a very specific issue and I'd like to know where to look for a reason. [13:42] velcroshooz: kellnola thanks to both of you [13:42] Hi everyone. My Ubuntu can't seem to access the repos. Is that because of overuse? [13:42] thegoodcushion: did you try to apt-get update before ? [13:42] nameless`: That won't complete [13:43] thegoodcushion: change your mirrors then [13:43] thegoodcushion: Most likely, with it being a new release, the servers will be under heavy use [13:43] nameless`: It's saying "Downloaded 0B of 1B" [13:43] it's ridiculous [13:44] An_Ony_Moose, it could be an issue related to your hardware. sounds like a problem with overheating or in general something like that (energy saving?). Or it could be that you press the wrong buttons [13:44] anyway I suppose I can live with a couple of days of no repo [13:44] anyon else? since kellnola has disappeared? [13:44] thegoodcushion, you can try to change the update server to a local one instead of the generl servers [13:45] ok [13:45] DarkStar1, explain the exact problem [13:45] So what's the verdict on 11.04? [13:45] don't upgrade [13:45] can't upgrade [13:46] I'm a bit unsure about Unity [13:46] <^Phantom^> i have more info on the minecraft crashing issue [13:46] I'm not. [13:46] <^Phantom^> here's a pastebin of the java console output [13:46] <^Phantom^> http://pastebin.com/9Wk10TPt [13:46] Incarus6: I've installed slapd twice now and trying to configure it, and check the conf file for errors because I can't add schemas to openldap but it doesn't have a slapd.conf file as listed by the tutorials [13:46] Unity isn't for me. [13:47] Not unless it goes through a sever amount of adding configurability to it. [13:47] is it as simple as just selecting not to use it? [13:47] AdmV0rl0n, not for me either.... I moved to Xubuntu [13:47] I installed pidgin and closed the contact list. i have a contact window open. How do i get the contact list back? Clicking on the pidgin icon in the unity bar on the left does nothing. there's no system tray icon. [13:47] hello, where can I find the httpd binary? [13:47] thegoodcushion, log into clasic desktop instead [13:47] gnome 3 isn't for me either. [13:47] DarkStar1, sometimes ubuntu tries to find the right configuration and you dont have a configuration file by default (like xorg.conf), so you have to create it. or did it change the "position" / directory? [13:47] buff27: is it as simple as that? [13:48] hm. found some cpus for my ubuntu server for $50 [13:48] AdmV0rl0n: are you a KDE man? [13:48] nope [13:48] 2.6 dual core opterons.. awesome [13:48] thegoodcushion, pretty much for 11.04 [13:48] i have 2 dual core 1.8 265s now :) [13:48] buff27: I worry that the GNOME environment won't be as well-supported as Ubuntu moves away from it [13:48] thegoodcushion, 11.10 may not be [13:48] that should be a good bump [13:48] I have not liked much now for a long time. I think most of the desktop direction is wrong, is bad, and seems to be being built for tablets, not desktops. [13:48] ^Phantom^: so you didnt got that SUN JAVA even minecraft needs it [13:49] DarkStar1: dpkg -L slapd <-- maybe there's a sample config file somewhere? [13:49] Incarus6: but how would I find out? /var/log/syslog tells me nothing useful, where else can I look? [13:49] hello when come 11.10 [13:49] When I try to open the settings of a virtual machine in VM Box it says "failed to access the USB subsystem". What can I do please ? [13:49] thegoodcushion, have you taken a look at what gnome is doing anyway....... looks similar to unity to me [13:49] <^Phantom^> tsaknorris, I did, but I can't figure out how to launch it with that one via terminal [13:49] hi, can someone please point me to an Ubuntu mirror that is a) accessible with rsync and b) carries the .iso images and c) is located somewhere in Europe. I'd like to conserve some bandwidth by rsyncing from the beta2 .iso images that I already have. [13:49] buff27: GNOME is not Unity [13:49] Incarus6: no it didn't change directory but according to the document it comes with a config file but I don't see any in it's directory [13:49] uhm... is zfs built into the 11.04 install? [13:49] hello when come 11.10 [13:49] So any other opinions about 11.04 out there? [13:49] LALALLAA: October 2011 [13:49] An_Ony_Moose, I can't help you with that, sry [13:50] Incarus6: ok, thanks anyway [13:50] anyone? seems like a pretty awful UI...can't even get the contact list back. no system tray icon [13:50] I just installed 11.04 and I'm loving it :) [13:50] thegoodcushion, i realise that, but gnome 3 screenshots (shell) look similar to unity shell [13:50] hi [13:50] Macer: Not as far as I know, and likely might never be.. [13:50] DarkStar1, /etc/X11/xorg.conf doesn't exist too, you have to create that file first [13:50] is natty good to go? [13:50] maco: I grepped a .conf out of that just now and found just one file in the manual directory? [13:50] What's the gcc/clang on 11.04? [13:50] avij: any of the mirrors should support rsync [13:50] !ubuntu+1 | lukus [13:50] lukus: Natty Narwhal is the codename for Ubuntu 11.04 - Natty is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 [13:50] So i was running the 11.04 beta release, and when i try and to an update, it says I can only do a partial upgrade? [13:50] which version I mean [13:50] ^Phantom^: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre [13:50] arand: hopefully some day [13:50] avij: rsync doesnt care where you are pulling from [13:50] When I try to open the settings of a virtual machine in VM Box it says "failed to access the USB subsystem". What can I do please ? [13:50] nerdshell: Natty is released. === meisth0th is now known as meisth0th_zzz [13:51] <^Phantom^> got it [13:51] DarkStar1: thatd probably be a sensible place to put example files [13:51] nerdshell, I thought it had been released [13:51] anyways... bbl.. when the 11.04 hype dies down [13:51] <^Phantom^> I have the runtime installed [13:51] nerdshell: that needs to be updated [13:51] er... distrowatch say its released [13:51] :) [13:51] 11.04 is officially released, the bot needs to be updated [13:51] xubuntu 11.04 also released? [13:51] Incarus6: it's a very complicated file to create and as it's supposed to have stuff in there that, when I read about, looks very complicated... Can't believe it's meant to be created by your average joe [13:51] When I try to open the settings of a virtual machine in VM Box it says "failed to access the USB subsystem". What can I do please ? [13:51] ^Phantom^: replace jre also with jdk [13:51] !natty [13:51] Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/11.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1104 [13:51] esp a beginner [13:51] My dash in ubuntu is not working - when I type to search for gedit, the circle just spins for couple of seconds and finds nothing [13:52] histo: I wasn't able to find such a server. care to give me an example of a mirror that fulfills all the three conditions I mentioned? [13:52] So i was running the 11.04 beta release, and when i try and to an update, it says I can only do a partial upgrade? And that doesn't even seem to work...Am i not able to update via update-manager? [13:52] thegoodcushion: factoid updated. [13:52] numberto: is it installed? [13:52] ^Phantom^: and you cannot maybe use both javas..open and sun...you have to remove openjdk.... [13:52] As above... [13:52] Pici: good work [13:52] histo: I installed ubuntu 11.04 3 days agon [13:52] Ola bruderz [13:52] numberto: no are you sure gedit is installed [13:52] <^Phantom^> tsaknorris, so maybe it's still going through openjdk even though I choose sun? [13:52] Pici bruder && ikonia bruder [13:52] yes [13:52] * ^Phantom^ goes and removes open [13:53] histo: it does not find anything [13:53] Can anyone with 11.04 type gcc -v and clang -v and tell me what versions of each are installed by default? [13:53] ^Phantom^: you can use synaptic package manager its easier.... [13:53] DarkStar1, that could help: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-server-73/openldap-error-cant-find-slapd-conf-721784/ [13:53] ^Phantom^: yes [13:53] ^Phantom^, open synaptic hit search and type icedtea,,, remove all installed packages and sun will be default at t hat point [13:53] histo: neither alt + 2 [13:53] thegoodcushion: packages.ubuntu.com is likely enough for you [13:53] <^Phantom^> doing so now [13:53] Is there a way to attach menus back onto their app windows? having it in the top bar is very annoying [13:53] im off now..bye all :) [13:54] oh boy ,, is everyone on natty now ?? :) [13:54] shuould I reinstall unity? [13:54] no [13:54] uninstall it [13:54] Flynsarmy, you mean in Unity? [13:54] coz_: if i were allowed I would be using many creative words to describe how i feel about unity right about now lol [13:54] coz_: yep [13:54] Flynsarmy, well no unless you log off and then change the session to classic gnome [13:55] numberto: huh? [13:55] Flynsarmy, on login you can choose ubuntu classic, gnome 2.x [13:55] velcroshooz: that'll only save me until they remove classic :( [13:55] <[Soma]> I'd like to move the top-bar in unity to the bottom, which is the way I had it before upgrading to 11.04. but I'm not even able to right-click the top bar or drag it or do anything. suggestions? [13:55] Flynsarmy, I hear you for sure,, Unity is best used on small screens so use classic gnome [13:55] hello ll [13:55] whats the easiest way to add a shortcut to the new unity sidebar? [13:55] Damn! took me 3 minutes to download 11.04! I'm surprised it wasn't slower with all the downloads going on. [13:55] Flynsarmy, thats six months to the day at the VERY leats ;) [13:55] Trashi1: drag it there [13:55] Flynsarmy, if classic is removed at some point,, I am guessing it will be an easy install [13:56] lol not many people use ubuntu [13:56] histo: doesnt work [13:56] has anyone here upgraded to natty yet? [13:56] i have one problem: "sudo: must be setuid root" in 10.04 === utku is now known as Guest95347 [13:56] histo: I really don't know what to do. I watched the video of new 11.04 and wanted to try it. I really love how it look but most functions does not work. I wander if there something which didn't install correctly, just don't know how to find out [13:56] <^Phantom^> okay, trying with openjdk uninstalled [13:56] i wonder if the point of unity was to make things easier to do or to hide things from the screen. seems everything takes at the bare minimum 1 extra click to do. hell - finding what apps you have installed is now a fight between man and machine [13:56] actually there should be 2 releases Unity and ubuntu [13:56] Hi, what is the difiference between version terminating by .10 and those terminating by .04 === rsaidan_ is now known as rsaidan [13:56] For the record, clang 2.8 and gcc 4.5.2 [13:56] at least that is my opinion [13:56] launch, its the month number [13:56] ok let me boot into natty [13:57] launch: .10 comes out in october .04 is in april [13:57] lukus, histo: thanks === quup_ is now known as quup [13:58] so some people are having problems with natty? [13:58] <[Soma]> wow having an app open in unity is annoying. and I can't even alt-tab into a new tab. I have to minimise my app so I can select another one. since of course there's no task bar either [13:58] <[Soma]> :S [13:58] If I upgrade to 11.04 what do I lose from 10.10? [13:58] <^Phantom^> Seems to be running good so far [13:58] ok, has anyone dist-upgraded to 11.04 from 10.10 server i386? have any 'gotchas' been discovered? :) [13:58] * ^Phantom^ knocks on wood [13:59] unity was intended to by an April 1.

[13:59] <[Soma]> I'd love to love unity, but I can't figure out how anything works. [14:00] !netsplit [14:00] netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show.

[14:01] hey guys, I just installed Natty and upon attempting to connect to the wireless it's asking for me to unlock the default keyring. It's not the password I created on install and leaving it blank doesn't work either. I'm not using autologin which reportedly would create this prompt in order to create a password. Unfortunately I'm woefully lacking knowledge of the keyring system [14:01] can you move the unity bar to the bottom? [14:01] the left one [14:01] <[TK]D-Fender> elb0w: Then you should have asked "Is it a bad idea to install Gnome3 on 11.04?" [14:01] is there a way to upgrade without update-manager? dist-upgrade doesn't show any new packages [14:02] jatt: let me check [14:02] elb0w, if you install gnome3 it will break Unity [14:02] MohammadAG: you need to update, safe-upgrade first === Soothsayer_ is now known as Soothsayer [14:02] so that the new update-manager can be installed [14:02] <^Phantom^> Thank you for your time, everyone that helped me.

[14:03] Soothsayer: should be [14:03] <[TK]D-Fender> Soothsayer: Yes [14:03] Soothsayer: linux can read/write ntfs partitions [14:03] So that means even the main Windows 7 partition will be available ? [14:03] where the windows os is installed? [14:03] z0mbyk1d, well, update-manager's crashing/hanging when I click upgrade, so I'm looking for another way to do that [14:03] HF_acid: Go into passwords and encryption keys, I presume is should be there, you can delete it from there which will re-make it next time.. [14:03] yes [14:03] yes [14:03] it is [14:03] jatt: I don't see a way but you can check. If you install compizconfig-settings-manager it will give you all theoptions to configure unity [14:04] Soothsayer, yes although I would google ubuntu dual boot windows 7 to be sure there are no particular things that have to be done [14:04] coz_, do you promise? haha [14:04] Will it break anything else? [14:04] arand: thanks I'll give it a try [14:04] histo: I am using unity-2d [14:04] histo: no compiz I guess [14:04] whats the relase room? [14:04] always expect it to break everything. [14:04] I'm sure this has been answered a hundred times already, but is there anyway to install gnome 3 on 11.04 ? I know it doesn't come with it by default [14:04] guess ill wait a bit then before I put it on my dev box [14:04] elb0w, that one I am not sure,,, you could remove unity,,, and then install gnome3 ,, however,,, gnome3 uses mutter as the compositor,, I dont think it can compete with compiz [14:04] !party > kristoffer_ [14:04] kristoffer_, please see my private message [14:05] quick Question guys, if i am doing a regular install and not a wubi one, and i am using 2 partitions (3 inc swap) one for / and one for home, what size / should be a good size [14:05] ImperialXT: I heard there's a PPA if you want to try that, I have no experience with it though [14:05] HF_acid: kk ty [14:05] DirtyDawg: ~20G [14:05] Has anyone been able to upgrade to the 11.04 release from the 11.04 beta release through update-manager??

To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [14:05] 11.04 is LTS? [14:05] Good day #ubuntu, it's going to be a long day today :) [14:06] zamba: No. [14:06] DirtyDawg: Or, well with a separate home, you'll probably be more thatn fine with ~10G [14:06] Pici: when's the next LTS out? [14:06] DirtyDawg, the OS requires around 4 gigs, so how much you need for apps and ata outside of that is your decision [14:06] brianl, all you need to do is sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to get up to speed [14:06] That is what I have been doing [14:06] Hi guys.

[14:19] yes [14:19] <[TK]D-Fender> Soothsayer: For your DB question... I'd say put it on the drive where it will have the most % of free resources to itself [14:19] Incarus6: sure it is, if you have 3D accelleration you can run Unity [14:19] dsathe : I installed just "dconf" [14:19] now installing proper one [14:20] [TK]D-Fender: won't that be the data drive?

I'm pretty sure you could change your configs to explicitly point elsewhere through... that is a DB config issue you'd have to actually look at their own docs for [14:22] Incarus6: its users saying if you want 3d effects you will need proprietary [14:23] thanks [14:23] Lungan, you are allowaed to change the shadow of the top panel [14:23] [TK]D-Fender: makes sense. [14:23] Unity is definitely supported on nvid ia closed drivers [14:23] Lungan, ok,, well to change its appearance you need to go to system/preferences/appearance and hit the customize button,,, to add applets to it just right click the panel "Add to panel" and choose from a list of available applets [14:23] <_cory> has anyone tried 11.04 yet?

However, it's not listed in the update manager after refreshing. (I have it set to normal releases) Only 10.10 is shown. Am I missing something? [14:28] rgr: i wouldn't. i would have figured it'd be in appearance settings [14:28] ubuntutryout777, let me know if it works [14:28] yes, since i want to tryout ubunto, not install it on HDD [14:29] dsathe : sorry for my dumb question, I got it [14:29] its far more than appearance its the entire DE. [14:29] <_cory> ite I'm going for it lol [14:29] ubuntu* [14:29] Gawwad: You have to upgrade to 10.10 before you can upgrade to 11.04 [14:29] hi [14:29] rgr: in addition search for 'unity' and you get a little window called 'launcher & menus' with 2 options on it. why was that not also in appearance. seems very hidden away [14:29] hello, is it possible to do the upgrade from the commandline? [14:29] Ok, thanks! Was sure you were able to upgrade from long term version to another :) [14:29] Gawwad: 11.04 is not LTS [14:29] hi [14:29] hio [14:29] ecolitan: Yes, do-release-upgrade. [14:30] ty Pici [14:30] Gawwad: You can from LTS to LTS, but 11.04 is a normal release and not an LTS [14:30] i'm having trouble starting unity by default, even when choosing "Ubuntu" from gdm combobox [14:30] Oh, I thought all the x.04's were long term [14:30] Pici, that is also working with the desktop edition? [14:30] how can i set unity as default? [14:30] Incarus6: Yes. [14:30] so it doesn't come with gnome3... why? [14:30] Pici, thx [14:30] ActionParsnip: whenever I click on dash it takes about 3 seconds for the dash to launch [14:30] unity,whats that? [14:30] Gawwad, no next lts is 12.04 april of 2012 [14:30] because Ubuntu is branching more and more from mainline Linux desktops. [14:31] Thank you coz_ [14:31] ok, whats the command to restart x server? [14:31] Gawwad: 6.06, 8.04, 10.04 were LTS, about every 2 years between LTS versions [14:31] html_inprogress: a buggy attempt by canonical to tie people to Ubuntu.

I answered. [14:32] is there any other mirror i can try? [14:32] So 10.4 is LTS but 11.4 is normal? But upgrading from 8.04 to 10.04 would work then? [14:32] why does everything need to be so cryptic in the linux world :/ [14:32] hello [14:32] Gawwad: Yes.

[14:56] Hi guys, party on! [14:56] vibhav, It seems that you do not have the hardware required to run Unity. Please choose Ubuntu Classic at the login screen and you will be using the traditional environment. [14:56] Why Ubuntu torrent is so damn slow? [14:56] what is the graphic card memory? [14:56] rcconf, because a gazillion people are using it ? [14:56] === Command terminated normally (Thu Apr 28 08:56:21 2011) === [14:56] !party [14:56] Please remember that #ubuntu, #kubuntu, #xubuntu, and #edubuntu are support channels.

[14:56] rcconf: the torrent is quite quick here. [14:56] vibhav, 1GB. it's a mid/upper end graphics card [14:56] euclid: yes [14:56] jubei_: may I pm you?

[14:57] vibhav: sounds similar, thoug it is with keyboard [14:57] has anyone updated to 11.04 from repo yet? [14:57] it's not a client problem. i download other stuff at full speed [14:57] sorry [14:57] euclid: And no, you can pick which desktop envornment you want. [14:57] i like how it spawns a screen for the upgrade [14:57] fancy [14:57] rcconf: got 70 seeds and 300 peers here. [14:57] Hi everyone, could someone point me the mono icons guidelines please, I can't find them ? [14:57] rcconf it might be torrent spesific properties too [14:57] escott: i have read up on many tutorials about what i need to set in, and none seem to work. I want to now backtrack a little and do some reading on networking and how it all works: could you point me in the right direction? ie. read up about "dnsmasq" - read about "ip masquesrading" - read up about "routing table" [14:57] euclid: You can easily choose classic at the login screen to not use it [14:57] Pici, really? [14:58] euclid: Yes, really. [14:58] :) [14:58] 50 peers [14:58] try to post it in the ubuntu fourms [14:58] 2.905 seeders [14:58] which web framework canonical uses to build ubuntu.com? [14:58] getting 1.4mb/sec on the torrent. [14:58] jubei_, assuming addresses on the eth0 subnet are not valid inet addresses (192.168.* or 10.10.*) you need to use NAT dnsmasq to allow the traffic to get back to them, you could have a route out, but nothing back in [14:59] jubei_: you need to tell your server to do ip forwarding... change the 0 in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward to a 1 [14:59] is dapper out yet? [14:59] 403kb/s damn slow [14:59] jubei_, JuJuBee asked for a pm i think [14:59] there isn't some channel dedicated to the gnome3 ppa, is there? [14:59] Dr_Willis|2: it's peers thing [14:59] How to convert an .ogv video to .avi? [14:59] OfficiallyPC: ffmpeg, mencoder,. or front ends to those apps [14:59] JuJuBee, i did that but it didnt allow the clients to get past the gateway [14:59] OfficiallyPC, use avidemux [15:00] OfficiallyPC: ffmpeg can, but I find Handbrake to be more flexible [15:00] 2mb/s [15:00] escott: i have a network map with ip's on and such in jpg, could you suggest a place to upload and then u can see? [15:00] but it's very unstable [15:00] jubei_: also did you change the value in /etc/sysctl.conf ? [15:00] Anyone know how to remove the little resize icon on each windows?

[15:01] oh wow why is my latency so high in this server [15:01] jubei_: do you have firewall rules preventing? [15:01] Hi everyone, could someone point me to the mono icons guidelines please, I can't find them ? [15:01] Guys, to download the new Ubuntu torrent, is it "ubuntu-11.04-alternate-i386.iso.torrent" or "ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent"? [15:01] !alternate | victorhugo289 [15:01] victorhugo289: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download#alternate - See also !minimal [15:02] victorhugo289: alternate is a text based installer.. eitehr can work [15:02] My computer is desktop, 32 bit, I use Alternate? ok [15:02] can i change unity?

[15:03] ok [15:03] no.. ccsm doesn't work... Win+n does not negative window.. it opens dash board [15:03] JuJuBee/Escott: I am so lost with all of this - i dont know how all the different parts (packetforwarding/dnsmasq/iptables/route -n) work together to produce the result, i have no understanding and am blindly entering commands and hoping they work, I want to understand, any books/links/resources you have in this regard would be amazing!! map of network : http://imagebin.org/150608 [15:03] rcconf what did you do to fix it? [15:03] saml refer to http://www.streamreader.org/askubuntu/questions/34572/how-can-i-reduce-or-increase-the-number-of-workspaces-in-unity [15:04] jubei_, the tldp may have some good docs [15:04] I just upgraded to natty and I want to re-enable the world map in the time/date. How can I do that? [15:04] hi [15:04] which ubuntu should i install ?

[15:09] escott: is there no more convenient way? [15:09] kl_ yes [15:09] moshe_, no, there is a ppa, but it breaks lots of stuff [15:09] why does ubuntu.com has a dell laptop that hides all the text?

[15:10] !changtheme | kl_ [15:10] thanks [15:10] Dr_Willis|2: found it [15:10] kl_: Not really. the gnome-look site has themnes you could look at and figure out how to modify. [15:11] dajhorn, http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/whats-new [15:11] [Dmitry]1: #ubuntu-motu and #ubuntu-packaging, also see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide [15:11] I tend to just pick a simple theme and thats it. [15:11] arand, escott ok, I was hoping I could somehow just drag it to the other workspace instead of half maximizing it [15:11] Dr_Willis|2: you know the exact name for the size tingie? [15:11] <[Dmitry]1> Pici: Thx you. [15:11] is it possible to get it though? [15:11] how do i access the equivalent of "system" at unity? [15:11] kl_: nope.

[15:13] dr0id: And you're asking for support in #ubuntu? [15:13] thank you very much for your time sir. [15:13] Pr070cal, why are you denying out? [15:13] not sure where to ask, well will move on to #linux then :) [15:13] thanks anyway [15:13] moshe_, your welcome [15:14] dr0id: if it follows the standards lsb_release -1 [15:14] dr0id: if it follows the standards lsb_release -a I mean...

I'll see about getting that link fixed though. [15:14] lsb_release and uname are the first things I try :) [15:14] can i get back to gnome? [15:14] dr0id: time to start digging in etc then i guess. [15:14] Sylphid: so its restictive setup like i had firestarter [15:15] chchatzop, ubuntu classic/gnome classic from the gdm login screen [15:15] thanks [15:15] Sylphid: i dont want data sent out unless i allow it [15:15] no love for unity [15:15] does the ubuntu installer support pre-configured mdadm raid arrays? [15:15] Pr070cal, make sure you are adding your related, established rules [15:15] can anyone help? upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 now just boots to an ubuntu logo and 5 red dots and doesn't go any further? virtualbox 4.0.6 on windows host [15:15] cat /etc/issue Dr_Willis|2 :) [15:15] centos 5.5 [15:15] didnt like it [15:16] is upgrading [15:16] jnye: boot in recovery mode to see where the problem is [15:16] Sylphid: i deny out to all and allow 80 but it doesnt work [15:16] Squall5668: any details on how to do that? is there a key combo or something? [15:16] Pr070cal, dont forget that connections use random source port [15:17] Somehow natty doesnt like my notebook. Native resolution is 1280x800, but Natty only allows me to choose 1024x768 (the rest is simply cropped). VGA is an integrated intel mobile gm965/gl960. Liveusb and a clean install gives the same result... What to do? [15:17] prey [15:17] jnye it asks you at boot, in the grub menu, if you cant see the grub menu press ESC [15:17] I need to establish logging the events from the network via rsyslog, I had already added appropriate lines into rsyslog.conf, by these lines I mean the line which loads the module listing on the tcp port and added my own ruleset to it [15:17] but it does not work [15:18] hey all....having a problem with front panel audio, if i start audio it everything defaults to rear panel however if i run aplay /some/audio.wav and start another track durring the aplay it goes to the front panel, any tips? [15:18] well ntop only works with established network connection but I don't get there with my wlan thats why I need a monitor that showes me why I don't get a connection [15:19] how can i install gnome 3? (and gnome-shell)? just via ppa? [15:19] Pici: thanks. not that I'd be needing a netbook version, but I just happened to notice that there's a mistake. [15:19] hinogi google: packet sniffing [15:19] avij: Sure. Thanks for letting us know. [15:19] AAAAAAAAAAAGHAHA.. i cant upgrade [15:19] Pr070cal, you could also try logging the connection drops to debunk where they are getting dropped [15:20] Pici, if upgrade fails, do you recommend to fix it or a fresh installation? [15:20] hinogi, sorry didn't realize you meant montior MODE [15:20] sam-_-, yes [15:20] Pici I recommend a fresh install [15:20] Incarus6: how did it fail? [15:20] <_empty> Just me having problems installing the new ubuntu? Booting from cd? [15:20] anyone else having problems with broadcom wireless and ubuntu 11.04? [15:20] bakanub: why didn't they include gnome 3? i thought it's stable [15:20] ciao [15:20] ChogyDan, "An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade: E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages."

It could be related with xorg [15:21] anyone want to say what they think of 11.04? What about Unity? [15:21] well there aren't many updates on release day :P [15:21] Incarus6: did you use the xorg ppa? [15:21] Someone really needs to complain to Citylink about how terrible the NZ Repo has been for the last 5 years [15:22] sam-_-: because gnome3 is not better than unity [15:22] (Not an exaggeration) [15:22] jdahm: that's not the reason [15:22] hinogi: try plugging using a wired network [15:22] sam-_-: i believe it wasn't stable in time for the freeze, or something [15:22] I did but there aren't any updates === XuMuK|ZNC is now known as XuMuK [15:23] jdahm: well that's apple and oranges. i didn't say so. i just want to know why they didn't include it. [15:23] LjL: ah. that makes sense [15:23] Incarus6: well if not, you need to pastebin some of the files from /var/log/dist-upgrade I believe, so we can take a look [15:23] hey all....having a problem with front panel audio, if i start audio it everything defaults to rear panel however if i run aplay /some/audio.wav and start another track durring the aplay it goes to the front panel, any tips on how to toggle between front and back panel only? === fraeulein_else is now known as seemawn [15:23] ChogyDan, I used a wrong ppa some time ago, have a look: http://pastebin.com/6itQQtTz [15:23] hinogi: System > Administration > Hardware/Additional Drivers [15:24] ChogyDan, I can't figure out which package exactly is causing that problem, otherwise I could fix it [15:24] 3 minutes remaining [15:24] I had a lot of problems and when I was updating to 11.04 something messed up and everything broke and I couldnt get anything to work. So i deleted it and reinstalled 10.04...now I can't get my computer to recognize my wireless internet card. Its a BCM4311 and I know how to set it up, but it won't even see it under lspci? [15:24] I have the STA drivers enabled riktking [15:24] brianl: do a clean install of natty instead :) [15:24] ok ... running 11.04 ... the menu is the immediate issue here ... how do you edit it??? [15:25] zetheroo: which menu? [15:25] ActionParsnip, Is there a reason my computer won't recognize my wireless card anymore? [15:25] hinogi: sorry mate im out [15:25] brianl: does it show in: sudo lshw -C network [15:25] ActionParsnip: the main menu ... when you click on the Ubuntu icon [15:25] can you explain the problem a little bit more? [15:25] I have an issue, can anyone help? the laptop screen of my ubuntu 11.04 is blank, it's recognised, but it just won't do anything. [15:25] an external screen works. [15:25] zetheroo: I think it just uses the files in /usr/share/applications [15:25] Incarus6: I would start at the top, see if you can remove xserver-xorg-video-8 [15:26] explain a liitle bit more [15:26] ActionParsnip, Nope, just my direct connection [15:26] vibhav: I just want to re-arrange the menu items ... [15:26] niels1, intel graphics? [15:26] and how do you clear the recent files? [15:26] hinogi: ooh try sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter [15:26] When I look at the monitor settings, the screen is there, and when I change desktop it's there, but it doesn't display anything [15:26] bakanub definately intel graphics. === DeathKnight is now known as Avasz [15:26] this menu has added confusion and more clicks to what was before it :( [15:26] niels1: use the bootoption: nomodeset If you use an nvidia/ati video chip then install the proprietary driver and it should be enableable [15:26] why is 11.04 LTS a different install option from 11.04? [15:27] ChogyDan, I got an error. translated: virtual packages coudln't be removed [15:27] Incarus6: actually, Im not sure [15:27] jdahm: 11.04 isn't LTS [15:27] there is no 11.04 LTS [15:27] there is no 11.04 LTS [15:27] how do I do that, ActionParsnip? [15:27] what he said [15:27] ActionParsnip: oh, sorry, read it wrong [15:27] that is 10.04 still [15:27] 11.10 will be LTS [15:27] Are the Ubuntu servers getting slammed? [15:27] niels1: what video chip are you using? [15:27] vibhav: no, 12.04 will [15:27] vibhav, NO [15:27] ok [15:27] without being able to customise the main menu this is not going to work for me [15:27] ChogyDan, I read it could be related with the gnome-desktop package, im trying to install that (so I have to downgrade Firefox 4 because of dependencys) [15:27] an Intel video chip, ActionParnsip [15:27] ActionParsnip, I had to partition everything myself when reinstalling because 11.04 was on there and i had to delete that and format the partition, I set the mount point at / for 10.04, would that mess anything up? [15:27] ScottONanski: they always do on release day and for about a week after [15:27] Max / Min on the left top? argh.. how to move that back to Right side?

Liveusb and a clean install gives the same result. Tried nomodeset - helped with the resolution, but lost unity [15:37] niels1, sleep? [15:37] Incarus6: yeah, Im not sure.

It's working now, I'm actually chatting to you on my laptop using an external screen Avasz. [15:38] if you choose unity can you switch to gnome 2 at gdm ?

[15:40] ActionParsnip, I got it working now ;D I booted into windows, turned the wireless on, then booted back into linux and it worked. [15:40] ToeKutter: try the unity-2d desktop then. [15:40] Avasz, it is in dual screen mode, my laptop actually tinks it's on, it just isn't. [15:40] ToeKutter: Gnome3 does not run in VMWare on Fedora Beta and Ubuntu Beta [15:40] Dr-Willis - what do I need to do for that? [15:40] Its not Unity. [15:40] do i need to change any sources for upgrading beta2 to official release [15:40] *sigh* [15:40] ToeKutter: install the proper package I guess.. ive just read about the unity-2d stuff using qt. [15:41] Monotoko: you could add the torrent and get the file created, then kill the app and replace the partial file with the completed file, you will then seed it [15:41] k. ill snoop around [15:41] Wow 11.04 released [15:41] cholo: no you do not. [15:41] niels1, try some combination with fn.. and function keys with monitor type pic on it. [15:41] ActionParsnip...that's what I was thinking, thanks :) [15:41] any tried it? hows it? [15:41] cholo: if you installed/used beta. the normal update/upgrade/dist-upgrade will update you to the filnal release.

[15:42] "Unity 2D Panel" [15:42] cholo: I guess you have it then [15:42] cholo, dist-upgrade wont show release notifications, try "update-manager" [15:42] hiexpo: erm... maybe smothing that does not require an academical title...? [15:42] I don't think it shows a release notification [15:42] cholo: try update-manager -c [15:42] just a lot of packages [15:42] lol, bug, enabling sync to vblank results in epic slowness [15:42] -c right?

[15:46] (which is unacceptable) [15:46] Question: Upgraded 10.10 to 11.04. Screen was black on reboot. Downloaded the new 11.04 iso to clean install. Installer is too dim on monitor (new laptop) to install. Is there a solution? [15:46] evdvelde: no, just look for a patch/fix [15:46] cholo: been looking, the kernel with patch failed as well [15:46] ScreenIssues: Use the function key + Fx key [15:47] evdvelde: it is not a kernel issue. [15:47] Fx key? [15:47] escott: Yep when i install both together in different drives I face this problem. As soon as i start windows and restart the computer it shows me black screen written that grub found no operating system and so on [15:47] i think it is a userspace patch [15:47] flo not really it still gets clocked regularly [15:47] guys: "If you have been keeping up-to-date via the update manager, you automatically have the latest version, the Release Candidate.

[15:49] only have one problem though: i have an hp mini 210 and although all problems i had to conquer on 10.10 have been solved, one remains: the touchpad gives a lot of problems when for example wanting to select things [15:49] cholo is just trolling folks [15:49] I predict a GNOME 3 Gubuntu derivative around the time of the next release. [15:49] I don't use menus (I use hotkeys like CTRL ALT F for firefox). Is there any point for me to go 11.04? [15:49] cholo: That decision is not finalised, but expected I think.

I'm writing an upgrade guide and do-release-upgrade failed with some errors/asked me to report it as a bug. I can do that, but I was wondering if there are any compelling reasons not to have people mangle sources.list manually and do it the old fashioned way to get around this [15:50] Ubuntu_user...XP and Ubuntu, whats up?

[15:51] ChogyDan, "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop^" [15:51] jnye yeah it as also a lot of issues with dual monitors stuff too [15:51] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReliableRaid [15:51] amanda: you have the same problem too? [15:51] could anybody please tell me where I can find an md5sum for the 11.04 desktop image listed on the website? [15:51] amanda: have you got the solution? [15:51] thanks [15:51] I do not like this integrated menus stuff.... It reminds me when MS added the crayola crayon of a taskbar to XP [15:51] invinciblemutant: Nope :( [15:52] MK``: So Win 7 don't create any problems with booting [15:52] amanda: have you got any idea from the room? [15:52] has anyone run apt-get dist-upgrade and had problems? [15:52] Amanda: do-release-upgrade does that and disables PPAs etc. in addition, it also creates opens SSH for recovery purposes I think, but in essence yes, editing sources is fully possible, but you have to know what you're doing, obviously... [15:52] Incarus6: is that the only error? or just the last? [15:52] ChogyDan, the only error [15:52] Ubuntu_user: nope, works fine. Although, after I installed ubuntu, the final character of all the passwords of user accounts on windows 7 were cut off, *no idea* how that occured. [15:52] i use do-release-upgrade [15:52] Ubuntu_user...I have done some Ubuntu/Win 7 installs...what's the issue? If you install Win7 first, then shrink the parition from the live CD and install from there it's usually okay (Windows 7 may need a disk check) [15:52] <[Soma]> Anyone figure out how I can make the app launcher in Unity NOT auto-hide?! I'm so sick of having to open it every time I wanna switch applications. [15:53] ChogyDan, lets ignore that. Im restarting the upgrade thing [15:53] I'm looking for information on the current state of software raid in ubuntu, is it on par with rhel yet? [15:53] <[Soma]> also, alt-tabbing between programs doesn't work anymore. :S [15:53] Incarus6: ok, can you translate for me? :) [15:53] Is the CD bug fixed?? [15:53] i think natty should be renamed to nasty [15:53] hehe [15:53] ChogyDan: So if they remove Classic from Natty will there be a solid workaround to scrap Unity for Gnome 2 [15:53] shetlandpony, clocking [15:53] ?, [15:53] ChogyDan, "libpolkit-gobject-1-0 : Disrupt: libpolkit-gtk-1-0 (< 0.99) but 0.96-2ubuntu4 should be installed" [15:53] bkerensa: classic is part of natty already [15:54] arand: Okay so doing it that way isn't going to break 349805 things or anything unless of course someone messes it up? :P [15:54] this is the first time i fail upgrade with ubuntu === else is now known as Guest29355 [15:54] ! clock === Guest29355 is now known as while [15:54] ! clocking [15:54] does anyone know how i can use a mirror for upgrading to natty? this is slooooow [15:54] !clock [15:54] ChogyDan: Yeah but apparently they plan to remove the Classic option in future releases and force Unity [15:54] flo, ? [15:54] !clock [15:54] flo system clock is generating signals to dram at X megahertz. don't think dram knows it is empty so it always refreshes [15:54] ie no change in energy usage with memory usage === while is now known as dsfsdfsd [15:55] exchgr: all mirrors will be "slooooow", it's release day. Think about it === Jens is now known as Guest62367 [15:55] Please, help me to upgrade distro from lucid [15:55] Incarus6: you could try aptitude upgrade libpolkit-gobject-1-0 see what options it gives [15:55] I have ubuntu based distro === dsfsdfsd is now known as while [15:55] Okay guys I'm thinking of buying a HP Deskjet 2000 for Ubuntu so I can print out color-coded source code using gedit.  Any last thoughts before I plonk the money down? [15:55] ActionParsnip, yes, but wouldn't at least one of them be less slow? [15:55] Update manager from gnome just don't show new releases [15:55] nick87720z: you will either need to upgrade to maverick, then to natty OR do a clean install of natty [15:55] Amanda: Or if you have a really messy system with lots of additional repositories which messes things up, it should be fine otherwise yes, but the other methid is the recommended one, obviously. [15:55] escott, i think i understand. so energy saving is a little difficult with the pc turned on, isn't it? (except for the screen, perhaps) [15:55] ah [15:55] ChogyDan, nothing. nothing to install, nothing to fix, ... [15:55] Can any one help me why this shell script running in loop http://pastebin.com/y9jHX201 [15:55] I checked to show only lts releases === rerla is now known as ross [15:56] Is it possible? [15:56] ChogyDan, let me try the upgrade [15:56] u can use do-release-upgrade [15:56] unity is the FAIL === ross is now known as Guest70054 [15:56] exchgr: i'd say they will ALL be slow as a LOT of users are upgrading. If you torrent the alternate natty ISO you can do an offline upgrade but you will then need to upgrade natty to the latest packages which will take more time [15:56] flo various components can be turned off/spun down. the chip can run slower the harddrives spun down, you may be able to turn off your network card etc, but not ram usage. install powertop it can optimize for battery life [15:56] ChogyDan: Yeah but apparently they plan to remove the Classic option in future releases and force Unity [15:56] Monotoko: did you get my last message? and if so did you answer it? ( its starting to become hard to catch up lol ) [15:56] MK``: escott check this http://pastebin.com/BGPe1yUw [15:56] nick87720z: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1140198 [15:56] does anyone in here boot from a softraid 1 or 10 with ubuntu? [15:57] ActionParsnip, they should set up a torrent-based apt [15:57] you need to change it so it will show "normal" releases [15:57] Ubuntu_user, win 7 doesn't like being messed with === Guest70054 is now known as fubar [15:57] exchgr: true, I use apt-fast, it's sweeet [15:57] Incarus6: ok, go for it. but maybe libpolkit-gtk-1-0 is the problem package [15:57] So I started the Ubuntu install CD, pressed "try ubuntu" and nothing happened [15:57] ActionParsnip, wtf is that? *googles* [15:57] Is that a bad sign? [15:57] arand: Awesome, thanks! [15:57] escott: what i researched, i found that win 7 creates problem with grub [15:57] Ubuntu_user, did you shrink win7 and move the start of the partition, or just shrink it and keep the start of the partition where it was [15:57] I have searched and searched...Could any supply me with the hash (md5sum) for: Natty, 11.04 i386 desktop.iso I have been seeding it for 2:47 and the hashs don't agree. [15:58] i have a question . i am currently running windows 7 and ubuntu 10.10 in a dual boot system and i would very much like to reinstall ubuntu 11.04 over the current ubuntu i`m running without messing up my MBR or the GRUB ... can someone tell me how can this be done ? [15:58] pigdad...what do you mean by "nothing happened"? [15:58] Ubuntu_user: I never had it mess with my grub installation. [15:58] ChogyDan, yeah that could be, but apt-get install -f doesnt show up any dependency errors [15:58] yeah, thanks [15:58] pigdad, did you do this in a other os? [15:58] Monotoko: It stalled for a long while and just continued showing the window [15:58] !powertop [15:58] Strange, that it needs special actions in command line [15:58] Monotoko: I should specify. This is booted into the CD. [15:58] pigdad: Did you check your iso for integrity? [15:58] usr13: Hm, I'll do that once I reboot [15:58] while, just reinstall, it should just put the newer grub on top of the old one. if you need to backup your grub.conf do that prior to the install and then you can merge you special config back in [15:59] pigdad...can you move around the menu beforehand? [15:59] if so go to "check CD" [15:59] escott: I just shrinked my second drive D:/ to a new partition of 50 GB, then divided it into 3 partitions [15:59] escott, thank you i just needed a confirmation [15:59] or whatever it says [15:59] Hmmm Why can't I get into ubuntu+1? [15:59] <[Soma]> how do I customise all the things that unity messed up without asking me? (navbar on top instead of bottom, app launcher set to auto-hide, etc) [15:59] or is 11.04 final already [15:59] ? [15:59] <[Soma]> I'm going insane here [15:59] Lars_G: because Natty is out, so the channel has been closed [15:59] Monotoko: The menu didn't show up. I opened a terminal window by switching to a VT and running gnome-terminal [15:59] Ok [15:59] Lars_G: yes [15:59] LjL: Then I'll ask here. [16:00] * Incarus6 thinks 11.04 is much more important then a royal wedding [16:00] Ubuntu_user, i don't have any problems with the config now, but but i did have numerous assorted problems that required multiple restores of win7 and reinstalls of ubuntu [16:00] MK``: you lucky one, google it millions out there facing this problem [16:00] pigdad...so you get as far as X opening? [16:00] But yeah, I'll check the disk for integrity. I torrented the iso so chances are it's OK, but maybe it burned wrong [16:00] Has Xorg dropped the use of /etc/X11/xorg.conf altogether? and I don't mean the change made long ago whereas it was optional, I mean wether it has stopped considering it compeltely [16:00] Incarus6, +3 [16:00] Monotoko: Correct [16:00] Monotoko: X opened, and stuff runs correctly, the shell just didn't load === guido is now known as Guest42215 [16:00] bkerensa: who knows. It might be their goal, but it is best to wait till after the UDS [16:00] pigdad...you should be able to check the logs to see what went wrong [16:00] Are there 3 drivers available for ati/amd-cards? the default "radeon" driver, fglrx and the catalyst driver? [16:01] Spotted a bug in the 11.04 disk partition part of the installer. No longer lets you type a mount point. You can only select from the drop-down list of options. [16:01] Lars_G, pretty much, you can still create one but xorg is mostly autoconfiged these days [16:01] Ubuntu_user: yeah :( you can probably fix grub with a liveCD, these guys can help, I am not an expert [16:01] No mini iso yet for 11.04 but it looks like the rest is there [16:01] escott: WHen you restored win7, you also needed to reinstall ubuntu? [16:01] escott: i am not able to get a solution === XuMuK is now known as XuMuK|ZNC [16:01] biffbaxter: wanna bet [16:01] anyone have issues running vmware player/workstation after the upgrade? === XuMuK|ZNC is now known as XuMuK [16:01] usr13...you will need to reinstall GRUB [16:01] because Windows will use its bootloader [16:01] usr13, all I had was a restore image, not an install disk, it would blow away the entire partition table [16:01] but not Ubuntu itself [16:01] Monotoko: Oh yea, I know. [16:01] escott: I created one long ago, to setup my synaptics touchpad, but since the last update in +1 to final (I guess it's final now), I can't use the mouse and synclient says the driver's not even installed [16:01] biffbaxter: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso [16:01] is there a configuration backup for compiz after upgrade? [16:01] escott: So I'm thinking xorg is ignoring the file. [16:01] which drivers are available for ati-cards? [16:02] MK``: but it will become a daily issue to fix grub each time u run window [16:02] ChogyDan: How can I change repos when doing a natty upgrade so the download process if faster [16:02] Lars_G: check /var/log/Xorg.0.log [16:02] Lars_G, it shouldn't ignore the file, check your /var/log/Xorg.0.log [16:02] escott: I didn't think win7 would re-quire you to re-partition the HD? (But I don't know for sure...) [16:02] escott: There's no mention to the driver on the log at all [16:02] where are the iso's md5sums [16:02] Holek: how do you mean? [16:02] !hashes [16:02] See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes for the md5sums of Ubuntu discs. [16:02] Lars_G, try reinstalling it [16:02] I'm not very familiar with the new upstart manager, but I needed to have a job running after each time mysql is restarted. I've added the script path to /etc/init/mysql.conf on the post-start script part but it didn't work. Any hints? [16:03] Thanx AP [16:03] what is "..a Qt-based implementation.." mean ? [16:03] usr13, if you restore a backup image the entire disk gets restored [16:03] are there more than 2 drivers available for ati-cards? [16:03] escott: Though, it does say it's reading xorg.conf in the log [16:03] the 11.04 hashes are not there [16:03] Lars_G, the synaptics driver that is [16:03] !upstart | urbanpt [16:03] urbanpt: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ [16:03] escott: I will [16:03] Ubuntu_user, what are your win7 reinstall options [16:03] ActionParsnip: I had my configured Compiz and with the upgrade Ubuntu basically trashed all the configuration I had [16:03] escott: Since I see no error even in the log [16:04] unity doesn't use compiz [16:04] !ActionParsnip - that iso is not the current build. I dowloaded it a week ago and its the same one and the datestamp is 21April [16:04] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [16:04] escott: please explain [16:04] jatt: http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ [16:04] I am not on Unity [16:04] escott, thank you! that's a point to start from. just browsed a bit through ubuntusers.de on those energy-saving hints. [16:04] <[Soma]> someone please help me, I'm going insane with unity. how do I change that the app-launcher on the left is NOT auto-hide but constantly visible so it doesn't take me ages to switch between apps. also, how do I enable alt-tabbing between apps, and how -- for the love of god -- do I customise the top navbar (the part with the time etc in it) [16:04] escott: Oh, I see. [16:04] jatt: http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/MD5SUMS [16:04] ActionParsnip, I checked the link you graciously gave...It hasn't been updated. :-( No hash for Natty [16:04] anyone have issues running vmware player/workstation after the upgrade? [16:04] jatt: I'll see if I can update it [16:05] I get the feeling today is going to be a busy day. === jeff_ is now known as wolfjb [16:05] jatt: Unity uses compiz.

Laptop screen dim function keys do not do anything. Is there a way to boot the installer in to some sort of safe graphical mode? [16:05] escott: what windows 7 install options? [16:05] [Soma]: Also, moving your mouse to the top-left corner instantly shows the left dock [16:05] ScreenIssues, you may be better off using the alternate install disk. [16:06] I'll give that a go [16:06] That's a text based installer, it could be that the live disk does not fully support the backlight control on your computer. [16:06] I'm getting a segfault when installing nspluginwrapper on natty amd64. is there a way around this? flashplugin_installer won't install until nspluginwrapper is completely installed [16:06] ScreenIssues: alternate CD is the non-gui one. [16:06] Is there an official download of 11.04 2d? [16:06] Ubuntu_user, well there are lots of ways Win7 can get broken. bootloader which might be fixable with the windows 7 rescue disk (you can download that). or Win7 can start thinking that there is some kind of hardware change and get stuck on PnP during boot. and a thousand other things, so I just kept reinstalling Win7 from my backup image on a USB drive until I managed to somehow not break it. took a couple attempts, but I found that wh [16:06] ile I could safely resize the ntfs partition I could not then move it [16:06] Roasted: yes, its out [16:06] http://pastebin.com/p2HraCWq [16:06] please help [16:06] Roasted_: 2d?

I wanna be able to click on it instantly. but thanks, I'm installing ccsm! [16:07] arand, I installed ubuntu on my cr-48 and its running kind of sluggish [16:07] is windows server any good?

[16:20] also, that said, are you using nvidia-current? [16:20] LAcan: I just want to customize my window decorator, everything else I am setting already in ccsm, I cannot change window decorator theme via ccsm [16:20] •TerryBook• I unplugged the port the cable tv was using, so it should have sound, the cable did. [16:20] Roasted_: yeah, should reset things (works in debian), or just restart X server [16:20] does anyone else have an ATI Raden HD 5850? [16:20] LAcan: no when i install ubuntu newly it just says download and install ati drivers [16:20] ActionParsnip, what am I resetting? I'm on unity 2d now... I just want to change the icon size smaller than default. [16:20] Holek, in ubuntu natively thru the theme option in right clicking should allow you a) pick a theme and b) pick the level of desktop effects. this does in fact work correct? [16:20] LAcan, Ubuntu_user was having problems booting windows not ubuntu if I understand him correctly [16:21] Ubuntu_user, ok, so we need to fix your boot settings? [16:21] Hey. I'm about to install Natty, i have 2 hdd's, will I get any performance boost if i put everything on hda except /usr and swap (which i will put on hdb)? [16:21] escott: yep true, [16:21] necrotik: the only other thing I can suggest at this point is driver-related. are you using nvidia-current, and have you checked the NVidia settings? [16:21] Roasted_: the X server, may help [16:21] LAcan: yes, it does, but my point is, I don't want to "choose", I want to do my own [16:22] maximus_, its good idea to put the swap on a physically seperate volume [16:22] maximus_, your fastest setup is raid0 stripped [16:22] •TerryBook• I don't know how to check the nvidia settings, but I'm using the restricted driver the driver tool wanted to activate. [16:22] ello [16:22] Holek, ok, thats above my paygrade, your gonna need a them builder or whatver.... have you tried tweak ubuntu? it has many visual tweaks available [16:22] escott - hard drives are different sizes...)= [16:23] LAcan: is it in the repo? [16:23] :) [16:23] at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NattyUpgrades#AlternateUpgrade it says to gksu "sh /media/cdrom/cdromupgrade" but the natty cdrom doesn't have a cdromupgrade file. What's up? [16:23] hello. I have been given a laptop with radeon x1200, and I have to get 3D accel working in the next 3 hours, or I won't get paid :D [16:23] Hi, why I cant update to Natty Narhwal throught update-manager-d ? [16:23] Holek, tweak ubutu should be, or the PPA is easily findable thru google... but i think its in the native repos yes [16:23] necrotik: assuming you're still in 10.04 or 10.10 and gnome, it's in the System/Administration menu, as 'NVidia X Server Settings' [16:23] I've tried so many things, and I've almost given up hope [16:23] maximus_, you can still strip up to the common size and have the rest for swap or large files (not that I recommend stripping) [16:23] Hiiiiiiii [16:24] •TerryBook• That contains no sound settings AFAIK [16:24] !log 10 [16:24] DexterLB, and you have installed all the fglrx drivers [16:24] Is dangerous upgrade kubuntu maveric to natty? [16:24] DexterLB: rundown of what you've tried? [16:24] fglrx doesn't seem to work with that chip, nothing in ubuntu's hardware driver suggestions and envy isn't available on maverick [16:24] Hi ! I have a question : do DNS servers tell on which port to connect when we request a website ? Or is it ALWAYS port 80 and we have to set a redirection on an another port if the webserver is set elsewhere ? [16:24] Ubuntu_user, still here? can you mount your window drive in ubuntu? [16:24] neckoox, dns only tells where the server is nothing about ports [16:25] LAcan: sorry for disconnection [16:25] neckoox, dns does not include port information [16:25] escott: thx [16:25] ~escott - where can I read up about that..dont want to bother anyone with asking how to do that.. [16:25] neckoox, escott: I tried installing all the fglrx packages, it says no supported hardware [16:25] necrotik: someone else might be able to better help you, then [16:25] Ubuntu_user, u can mount your windows drive in ubuntu? === masterhumper is now known as sejo [16:25] maximus_, mdadm documentation [16:25] LAcan: ok x [16:25] DexterLB: fglrx does not support that chipset. The open source drivers should work fine. (they do on my x1400) [16:25] •TerryBook• k thanks! [16:25] Is there any hope in sight for dual screen systems with unity being able to choose which screen the dock is on? [16:25] DexterLB, is the x1200 super old? [16:25] escott: yup [16:26] Well, I removed my GUI, but now my color scheme is the purplish-grey of bootup for Ubuntu. How do I modify my color to something more acceptable? [16:26] Pici: does it have 3D? [16:26] maximus_, feel free to pm if you have mdadm questions [16:26] Roasted_: wouldn't it display on the display set as primary? [16:26] DexterLB: Yes. I wouldn't expect to be able to play games on it, but compiz works fine. [16:26] somethinginteres, the beta did not. [16:26] LAcan: so how to fix boot records [16:26] somethinginteres, it just forced the dock to the far far left, no matter how you stacked your monitors. [16:26] Pici: hmm, compiz here says No GL [16:26] Ubuntu_user, by answering the questions :) Can you mount your windows drive in ubuntu? can you see your windows files? [16:27] Roasted_: perhaps you should lodge a bug report.. seems like that'd affect many people [16:27] somethinginteres, so for me it was a PITA, because my main monitor is on the right. So my unity dock defaulted to the left... but my left monitor is just for watching news, weather, IMs, email, etc. So I hate to have to swing way over to use that dock. [16:27] somethinginteres, well I heard it was a work in progress. But this was 2 weeks ago. I wasnt sure if anything had changed. [16:27] w00t i got sound [16:27] escott thanks, will give it a look at. btw, never used IRC, how do i reply just to you? what am i supposed to put infront of the name? [16:27] Does anyone know how to change the initial color scheme for the command line? [16:27] LAcan: yes [16:28] Roasted_: there's a new version of unity out that hasn't landed, that changes a number of things e.g. "Home Folder" to "File Manager". Maybe it is fixed in there [16:28] DexterLB: Can you check your xorg log to see what driver you are using? [16:28] somethinginteres, will that be part of regular system updates, you think? [16:28] Roasted_: You really should log a bug. [16:28] Pici, one exists I believe. [16:28] maximus_, /msg [16:28] Roasted_: I had hoped it would be out by now, I am sure it will come in regular updates at -some- time. Not sure when [16:28] Ok if I type aplay -D plughw:1,9 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav I hear sound in my tv. Anyone know what the next step is? [16:28] Ubuntu_user_, ok, thats good :) so when you boot, u get the grub boot menu yes? the one which allows you to choose ubuntu? [16:29] hi [16:29] i have upgraded to 11.04 [16:29] btw does anyone know if nortan antivirus is capatiable with Ubuntu? [16:29] how may i turn on "unity" now? [16:29] Bluebill-Wolf, no, it's not. Thank GOD. [16:29] natty looks like Macintosh [16:29] Bluebill-Wolf, hello no [16:29] econdudeawesome, do you mean the colors of the prompt ($PS1 in .bashrc) or the background colors (right click on terminal and manage the profiles) [16:29] escott_, awesome, thanks (= [16:29] PhoenixSTF, no, it doesn't. [16:29] Roasted, yes it does === JoFo_ is now known as JoFo [16:29] LOL [16:29] PhoenixSTF, I have been on Ubuntu since 2005. Ever since day one people have found a way to say it looks like Mac. [16:29] myh . . . wait a min what do you mean "thank god?" [16:29] LAcan: Yes i get it till the time i dont start windows, the moment i did, on next restart i face this problem [16:30] PhoenixSTF, while the global menu is similar to mac, it's not the exact same. that is the *only* similarity. In other words - no, it does not. [16:30] Bluebill-Wolf, because norton sucks. horribly. [16:30] escott: I know longer use terminal--the CLI for the OS [16:30] failed to upgrade to 10.10 :( i found topic, where it is discussed. Imho, it would be nice to allow to resolve problems , e.g., via synaptic (it it allowes). [16:30] Roasted, it looks more like mac than actualy look like maveric [16:30] Roasted_: the latest version that's landed in user updates is 3.8.10 but 3.8.12 is up on Launchpad. Hopefully it'll be available soon === brianl is now known as brianl|a === XuMuK is now known as XuMuK|ZNC [16:30] Ubuntu_user_, wait im confused... on that menu there was an option for ubuntu and for windos7 yes? [16:30] what would you reccemend in its place? [16:30] Roasted, I cant even find the system options like before [16:30] econdudeawesome, then you need to edit your .bashrc [16:30] PhoenixSTF, well, no kidding... because maverick is a different version of ubuntu. [16:31] PhoenixSTF, well, yeah. it's a totally different interface. [16:31] any reason i can't update to ubuntu 11.04 [16:31] I just installed natty narhwal on an "old" IBM laptop with 1,86GHz and ATI graphics. In the "Additional Drivers" application it it sais that no proprietary drivers are in use. Are there proprietary drivers that are better than the default ones, and if so, how do I get them? [16:31] LAcan: yes first three were related to ubuntu and fourth was for windows 7 [16:31] PhoenixSTF, with gnome moving towards gnome shell, we would have had to make the change at some point regardless. ubuntu just went with unity instead, which is very similar to gnome shell anyway. [16:31] theholder, are you on 10.10 right now? === mb is now known as Guest87877 [16:31] i think that ubuntu 10.10's installer is faster that 11.04's :D [16:32] Hello [16:32] Ubuntu_user_, ok. but once you selected windows, the NEXT TIME you booted, the ubuntu boot menu was gone, and instead you got "no OS found"? [16:32] electronicboy_, unless you use the minimal install cd [16:32] Roasted, totaly, is quite simple, very simple, i got to give credit to the dev team, but its way more complicated to get the system stuff that we need [16:32] John_Gate: Usually natty should tell you about extra drivers. Try running "additional drivers" yourself [16:32] Hi tie [16:32] LAcan: EXACTLY, you got the point [16:32] how do I add remmina to the panel on 11.04? Or how do you add anything to the panel [16:32] how can I su into a user and be able to launch graphical applications? [16:32] LAcan, Ubuntu_user_'s problem seems to be internal to Win7. grub is chainloading and win7 boot process is busted (happens from time to time when you resize ntfs) [16:32] Ubuntu_user_, hrmm ok thats weird. [16:32] Roasted, at least the menu stuff, otherwise terminal will be just fine [16:32] minimal install cd?? isnt that the alternate cd? === Guest87877 is now known as TheNuts [16:32] John_Gate: use the dash to search for "additional drivers" and run that and see how it goes [16:32] LAcan: really it is [16:32] escott: How would you change the background color then? [16:32] PhoenixSTF, the important thing is to be open minded. I HATED unity and gnome shell. I used gnome shell at the end of last summer and I hated it. But you know... I used it more. I got to know it. And now that unity is here I'm using it more too. [16:32] John_Gate, run jockeyt-gtk [16:32] Ubuntu_user_, ok so how did you boot into ubuntu THIS time? [16:32] <[diablo]> afternoon all... does anyone please know how in 11.04 (Ubuntu Classic), I can get the widget scroll bars not to do that annoying hiding, it's been driving me crazy [16:33] as far as an antivirus what would you guys reccomend? [16:33] LAcan: i am on windows [16:33] Ubuntu_user_, oooh thats different you mean you can boot Win7 but then you have no bootloader afterwards? [16:33] somethinginteres: I start "Additional Drivers" but no drivers are displayed in the list.. [16:33] Ubuntu_user_, Ok.. how did you manage to boot windows if "no OS found"? [16:33] PhoenixSTF, it'll take time. there will be headaches, frustrations, etc. But this is a unique opportunity for linux as a whole to provide a new interface that people can interact with differently than windows and mac could ever hope to. love unity or hate it, love gnome shell or hate it, both offer great features i fyou give it the time to adjust. [16:33] PhoenixSTF, that's my opinion, at least. [16:33] [diablo], oh you mean that scroll bar overlay thingie| [16:33] necrotik: I just found this via google, it may help: http://theironlion.net/blog/2010/09/20/ubuntu-lucid-nvidia-and-hdmi-sound/ [16:33] привет народ [16:33] <[diablo]> hi coz_ yep thats the one [16:33] escott: yes [16:33] econdudeawesome, google for bash color prompt [16:33] I need help.. my sound wont work.

[16:34] while upgrading [16:34] Roasted, I never used gnomeshell so its quite a shock for me, but yes i will adapt, anything is better then windows IMO, it was just a bit of a shock, gonna take me some time to adjust [16:34] [diablo]: sorry "overlay-scrollbar" [16:34] Ubuntu_user_, you have two disks yes? windows on sda and ubuntu on sdb. did you know where grub was installed? sda or sdb? [16:34] [diablo], are you on the unity desktop or classic,,,?? you said classic ...yes? [16:34] Bluebill-Wolf, You might take a look at ClamAV [16:34] ruan: No, you need to chose it at login [16:34] PhoenixSTF, like I said, I hated unity and gnome shell for weeks. many weeks. [16:34] arand: thanks [16:34] was wondering [16:34] PhoenixSTF, but now that I'm getting used to it, I'm turning into a little bit of a fanboy :P [16:34] <[diablo]> somethinginteres coz_ im in classic... not a fan of Unity at all [16:34] ruan, but gnome won't be an option later [16:35] [diablo], are you also running compiz? [16:35] meisth0th: i'll be using gnome3 if they force unity [16:35] Bluebill-Wolf, I believe that it's in the repositories. [16:35] <[diablo]> coz_, yep [16:35] Re: my /media/cdrom/cdromupgrade question - this only works for the alternate install cdrom.... [16:35] LAcan: After problem i put Live CD in and reinstalled ubuntu, that repaired bootloader, then booted to windows deleted the drives of ubuntu and used mbr repair utility to clear all ubuntu records [16:35] meisth0th: if g3 doesnt work, then kde [16:35] econdudeawesome, unless you want a non-black framebuffer background... and I have no idea how that is done [16:35] Roasted, xD will I hatting it for now, in the future ok i might like, but i miss the menus! god how i miss the menus!!!!!! [16:35] how can I su into a user and enable graphical applications? (like shh'ing with the -x command) [16:35] ruan, i don't think any of desktop environments isn't on the way to good :) [16:35] [diablo], ok open ccsm,, I believe we have a plugin at the bottom of th e list for that although I havent tested it ,, sam put one in there ,, give a try by either disabling it or clicking on it to see available options,, I cant get into it right now [16:36] Ubuntu_user_, ok download a freeware app called "EasyBCD" for windows [16:36] I need help i have no sound! [16:36] escott: yes i have two drives on same HDD, but dont know where grub went [16:36] I have been unable to install kubuntu natty on my hp probook 4420 laptop, livecd always hangs while loading :/ [16:36] <[diablo]> coz_, ok sweet... thanks yeah [16:36] Ubuntu_user_, you mean you have 1 drive and two partitions [16:36] John_Gate: it would appear you're out of luck, try joining the channel #ati to ask for help [16:36] LAcan: used the same one [16:36] How do you add somethign to the panel in natty? [16:36] bigbrovar: and classic install(alternate) [16:36] bigbrovar: ?

It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/alternative-download#alternate - See also !minimal [16:36] [diablo], let me know if you can adjust it from there [16:36] somethinginteres: that for that channel, I will join it! [16:36] Ubuntu_user_, ok, then make sure your windows menu looks legit then add an entry for your ubunut partition...

[16:53] i'm trying to do so in order to avoid adding load to that server, which is crawling already [16:53] burg: did you specify the network parameters for the wired link in /etc/network/interfaces by any chance? [16:53] how is 11.04 so far? [16:53] burg: Well, not sure about that one, but you could switch to wicd. [16:53] marel, sudo -i sorry [16:53] burg: Right click on network manager click "edit connections" [16:53] marel: sudo -i [16:54] other_max: been fine here since alpha 2 [16:54] is anyone having problems with their wireless connection at the moment? [16:54] DirtyDawg: I would guess at acpi issues, try booting with acpi=off [16:54] Are there 3 drivers available for ati/amd-cards? the default "radeon" driver, fglrx and the catalyst driver? [16:54] marel, try sudo -i [16:54] burg: should be able to set it up from there [16:54] other_max: unless I can customize some of the options I can't find menus for, I'm going back to gnome2. Biggest complaint [16:54] can i install ubuntu 11.04 on sys. with 512 ram [16:54] hmm ok [16:54] I don't have a pidgin indicator in the messaging menu anymore. How can I re-enable it? I've been using natty since beta [16:54] other_max: I think there might have been a bug I remember. When prompted, don't just hit enter, go into the menu and choose the default. That seems like how I got around it [16:54] 11.04 so far has been less than stellar ... :( [16:54] ScottR3, su won't work for most people as out of the box there is no root password [16:54] seems as though its on and on [16:54] agrab: radeon, radeonhd, ati and frglrx [16:54] escott: you're right, sorry. forget these things sometimes ;) [16:54] i'm all for a new desktop. kde stinks, gnome not much better. windows and mac desktops barely better. time for change.

[16:55] ruan: not yet [16:55] ScottR3, np [16:55] burg: You can use iwconfig to manually acquire a network connection and if you want to switch to wicd: sudo apt-get install wicd ; sudo apt-get remove network-manager [16:55] im going to try it really soon [16:55] marel, rm -rf foldernmae [16:55] marel: command line? [16:55] shane4ubuntu, yeah [16:55] agrab: for most things the open source driver is fine, if you need full 3D goodness (an your chip is supported by it) then the frglrx driver will be needed [16:56] marel, be very careful before doing something like that as root [16:56] If you think it sucks that try to make your own shell, you will realize how difficult it is , so better respect the work done by devels [16:56] so I've got a few questions on how to, er, fix some of the customizations unity has taken liberty with [16:56] marel: like escott said, rm -rf foldername be carefull with that though [16:56] andeeeuk: What is your problem?

[16:57] isn't 11.04 supposed to have unity? i installed it but it just loads gnome... [16:57] on my eeepc 1005PE the touchpad is disabled on the live install [16:57] Is the Natty upgrade service down? [16:57] TheXero, if you mean you have an ssd and a hdd I would put / on the ssd to improve boot and put /home on the hdd [16:57] Does anyone know how to change the background on the OS CLI? I have read through a few bash how-tos and can't seem tog et it to work--they recommend editing ~/.bashrc, but that is user-specific. It appears I need to edit something more? [16:57] has anybody managed to update to natty without relying on the update server (i.e., on the alternative iso?) [16:57] andeeeuk: Does it just get dissabled or what?

[17:29] Alterno: Did you try update-manager -d [17:29] it is possible to show in the unity startmenu more und smaller icons === marcio is now known as Guest71495 [17:29] skulltip: Feels very... clunky and awkward at the moment. But it's only been a few hours in the driving seat. [17:30] if i upgrade from 10.10, besides backups, does it preserve my current home folder, custom directories and games I've copied? [17:30] @Officialllypclet me try to run that command [17:30] i think than it is easier to handle on big screens with big resolution [17:31] skulltip: your home directory stays the same... you can also make a second user and directory and play around in it without disturbing your first [17:31] Alterno: Any luck? [17:31] mnoyce - still have to turn off compiz to play fps's well? === phdaemon|AFK is now known as ChaosBringer [17:31] does kismet have a proper GUI? like a gnome interface?

[17:32] hello, I need some help with ubuntu; I try to install it on a desktop via CD and every version of it I've tried installs some things and then says "Please insert the disk labeled Karmic Koala blabla"; whatever I press nothing happens - any idea? [17:32] skulltip: First time I've used Compiz for a few releases. [17:32] gtklocker, where are you getting your CD's from? [17:32] Alterno: if you were running beta it will just upgrade to full eventually no worries [17:32] cool, thanks mnoyce [17:33] ok [17:33] LAcan: burning the isos but I've even tried with some shipped 6.06 that still didn't work [17:33] gtklocker, FROM WHERE? [17:33] LAcan: TDK CD-Rs or DVD-RWs [17:34] bnmnb, === root is now known as Guest35532 [17:34] LAcan: the isos from ubuntu.com [17:34] Guest31762, mac uses gpt not dos partition types. it shouldn't be giving you that error but gdisk can verify the gpt partition type [17:34] mnb,mnb, [17:34] ty escott [17:35] gtklocker, karmic koala seems like old software. get a 10.10 ISO and use that [17:35] work lan [17:35] if i install will xfce will run faster than gnome on ubuntu? [17:35] Dominater, why wouldnt u just install xubuntu? [17:35] Dominater: not much [17:36] Ctrl+W makes switching between Apps on Desktops a lot easier...

[17:36] how i instal smeserver [17:36] unity will not load at login... how to fix? it starts fine from terminal [17:36] gtklocker, what are you picking as your GUI? have u tried just using the default (gnome)? [17:37] LAcan: I have tried with the desktop and alternative versions, all same shit [17:37] because my laptop runs very hot when i run gnome so i need to try something light on it [17:37] Eduard, they are up to nvidia 173 now... but i dont know if thats for your card or what... === XuMuK|ZNC is now known as XuMuK [17:37] in natty, when I enable dual screen, my system becomes nearly unresponsive. I have an nvidia 8800... should be fine [17:37] LAcan: and while I could make a custom installation with say Arch Linux I don't know if it's possible with ubuntu [17:37] Guest1496740: download the iso from the website, burn, and put it in the cdrom drive to install. [17:38] Is anyone else having trouble with enabling unity? [17:38] looks like it installed the wrong driver by default [17:38] Does 11.04 still have a netbook version? [17:38] narwhaller: should be enabled by default [17:38] manday, no [17:38] ok [17:38] ManDay: no [17:38] ty [17:38] ManDay: No. The netbook and desktop versions are now one and the same. [17:39] hello, i am trying to setup a home server/gateway using linux server 10.04 and 2 NICS, from the server i use eth1 to dial PPPoE to router and can ping out to internet from server. I use eth0 to switch to give access to client PC's. from the clients i can be assigned dhcp from server and can ping the server. however i cannot ping the internet, the server is blocking requests(?). i have setup [17:39] packet-forwarding=1 and have put some rules into iptables, but i think i messed up the iptables rules... could someone inspect the iptables rules, this is 1st time im doing it, and let me know what they think? [17:39] my gnome-network-manager keeps saying ethernet device is not managed? i removed eth0 from the wired interface how do i add it back? [17:39] hypetech: It should, but I had to install proprietary drivers, so it booted into default gnome, and now it won't switch to unity. when I run 'unity' in the terminal, the computer freezes [17:39] narwhaller: probably a driverproblem if you have a clean install [17:39] mnoyce: i thought so [17:39] does ubuntu on shared connection transfare by default igmp protocol? === nathan is now known as Guest17190 [17:40] narwhaller: if there is more than one proprietary driver in the list try another one [17:40] OverTheHillAndFa: Alright, thanks for the advice! [17:40] Problem: Ubuntu installer was not running (screen too dim to read). Used alternate installer as suggested by someone here. I'm finally up and running, but my screen is too dim to be useable. Fn+Fx keys pull up brightness indicator, but do nothing. [17:41] hello? [17:41] Planet_EN, iwconfig eth0 mode Auto [17:41] So I'm still trying to figure out how to change my TTY shell background color from purple to black. I've removed my GUI and used rcconf to turn off Xserver and GDM. Anyone know how to do this? escott has helped me a bit, but I think we've both run out of ideas. [17:42] madj42: You were right. MMF Registration failure in the logs when installing SMP. I found this article http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH42343 which presumably talks about it. [17:42] how hard is it to revert back to the 10.10 gnome? [17:42] I did something, and now Windows + A and Windows + F key combinations don't open Find Applications/Find Files anymore. === sburjan_ is now known as sburjan` [17:42] :S [17:42] Webupd8 (http://www.webupd8.org/2011/04/things-to-tweak-fix-after-installing.html) has some nice tweeks.

[17:42] ChronicSyncope, login to classic gnoem [17:42] gnome* [17:42] sagaci, okay, i haven't done the upgrade yet. [17:42] sagaci, thanks though, i wanted to know before I did it. [17:43] I see on the website, the new "dash" for natty is not fullscreen. It is on mine, how to I resize the dash? [17:43] escott: it says: Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) : SET failed on device eth0 ; Operation not supported. [17:43] When buying a new laptop to use with natty narwhal, is it best to chose intel or amd processor? And amd, nvidia or intel graphics? I mean, does ubuntu run better with some cpus/gpus? === Narwhal is now known as IdleOne [17:43] ChronicSyncope: well trying it in VM complained about missing hw support and did that classic gnome by default; guess login screen will also have option for selecting that. [17:44] Planet_EN, is eth0 ethernet or wireless [17:44] escott: wireless is connected [17:44] John_Gate, amd or intel are fine. I use AMD for servers running virtual machines. tends to cost a lot less [17:44] nonix4, yeah this is just netbook unity [17:44] nonix4, which you can turn off when logging in [17:44] compdoc: I see! [17:45] wow my harddrive is making a scary noise from this update [17:45] i hope it's not the end [17:45] PLEASE FIX "WWW.UBUNTU.COM" WEB SITE ... ! [17:45] PLEASE FIX "WWW.UBUNTU.COM" WEB SITE ... !

[17:45] heh [17:45] it's working fine for me [17:45] Could someone please explain to me how the ubuntu windows installer works? Does it install ubuntu on the same partition as windows? And does it run ubuntu like a program? [17:45] Okay, I reinstalled, a different graphics driver, checked 'ubuntu' at log in, and I'm still not getting unity. None of the compiz effects are working either. Is there any simple way to activate unity? [17:45] me too [17:45] Planet_EN, is it wired or wireless [17:45] So I'm still trying to figure out how to change my TTY shell background color from purple to black. I've removed my GUI and used rcconf to turn off Xserver and GDM. Anyone know how to do this? escott has helped me a bit, but I think we've both run out of ideas. [17:46] I see on the website, the new "dash" for natty is not fullscreen. It is on mine, how to I resize the dash? [17:46] how come htop and free show different memory usage?? :O [17:46] mikebot its very easy man [17:46] econdudeawesome: what version of ubuntu is this? [17:46] mikebot, do you mean wubi? [17:46] escott: Yeah [17:46] jrib: 10.10 [17:46] escott: i think s [17:46] mikebot, yes it does, it creates a virtual disk, installation and uninstallation of wubi/ubuntu is like regular windows app [17:46] mikebot it creates a image file on your btfs partition in windows. then you reboot and can boot ubuntu but all changes you make are stored in this .disk file. if you dont like ubuntu anymore you can just uninstall like a programm [17:46] mikebot, it installs in windows LIKE a program, but runs separately like an OS. No partitioning involved. [17:46] econdudeawesome: that's a bit confusing. You can't disable X using rcconf [17:47] !wubi | mikebot [17:47] mikebot: Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for troubleshooting.

[17:47] mikebot, correct [17:47] jrib: I uninstalled X. I want to work directly in the command line. But I'm trying to change the default background color--it persists to the tty shells [17:47] mikebot, wubi is a bit hairy. it creates a file on the ntfs (windows filesystem) and then somehow boots ubuntu with a loopback into that file. most people prefer using a virtual machine, or a straight install to the hard disk [17:47] !natty > Hedgehog456 [17:47] Hedgehog456, please see my private message [17:47] What is the easyest way to upgrade from beta2 to final??

[17:48] grub2 doesn't boot windows7. however, he recognizes the partition and adds it to the menu. when i try to boot it, nothing but a cursor appears. what's wrong? [17:48] btw how do i defrag my hard drive in ubuntu? [17:48] escott: Lenovo ideapads come with like 4 partitions already, so I cannot create another to install ubuntu to dual boot [17:48] jrib: I used rcconf to turn off X-something, it's one of the options. But i'd already uninstalled portions of it [17:48] escott: (And I need windows to run my university's exam software; no emulators allowed) [17:48] Bluebill-Wolf: defragging is for stuff like ntfs and what not, not needed in ext4 and such [17:48] ChronicSyncope can i send screen shot for you ? [17:48] mah454, you can try - not sure if my dcc ports are open or not [17:48] mah454, sure [17:48] econdudeawesome: the proper way to stop gdm from starting is to just add "text" to your kernel line in grub [17:48] hey === Spacewalker_ is now known as Spacewalker [17:49] !list [17:49] This is not a file sharing channel (or network); be sure to read the channel topic.

Do you know how to do that? [17:49] rumpel1, josephnexus says no updates.. [17:49] lol [17:49] mikebot, but you can always try wubi see what happens [17:49] I want my Super + A / Super + F shortcuts back. Anyone know how?

Do I then need to restart? Or should it do that immediately? [17:50] it works quite well [17:50] econdudeawesome: you shouldn't need to restart [17:50] the free command seems borken ... when I check SystemMonitor or htop Im getting 500/4000 mb RAM used but when I check free it shows 3800/4000 RAM used :S:S [17:50] But would that force me to run two OSs?

[17:51] mikebot, well it is a virtual machine so yes [17:51] I see that it works fine on my little laptop, which has the gui installed. The coloration that persists seems to be whatever Plymouth is using, and setterm did not change that [17:51] the hid_cando touchscreen driver does not seem to survive suspend. dmesg tells the usb device was disconnected. the other usb devices are just fine... [17:51] quit just gone [17:51] OK, this is what I want: to have a dual boot machine that has windows 7 starter and ubuntu netbook remix [17:51] escott, he might not know what a VM is, this is his first time installing an dualboot os [17:51] econdudeawesome, is it fbset? [17:51] I feel a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of Ubuntu apt-get repositories suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced. [17:51] econdudeawesome, dragging out some old old memories here [17:51] HOW DO I UPGRAde to 11.04? [17:51] escott: fbset? That is the time I saw that [17:52] However, the crappy ideapad s10-3 comes with so many partitions that I am unable to create another one (is 4 the max?). [17:52] escott: I tried setterm, but it would not work [17:52] phoenixsampras, just click the upgrade button in software upgrades [17:52] escott: do I have to disable wireless for that? [17:52] mikebot, make a virtual partition (is that what it's called? i forget) [17:52] The area where the launcher would appear isn't functional for other applications using that area. [17:52] you make it the same exact way [17:52] OMG I DONT like this new relase [17:52] Hi, I cannot boot natty from my USB; i get a mounting problem: http://pastebin.com/JvF0fTRa [17:52] ChronicSyncope OK please wait .... [17:52] mikebot, you make it the same exact way in a partition manager [17:52] is that gnome 3??? [17:52] hi, after installing ubuntu 11.04 in my notebook the wireless stop working [17:52] escott: you dont think it would be something to do with Plymouth, do you? [17:52] For example, I cannot use Firefox's back and forward buttons. [17:52] compdoc OK please wait ... [17:53] what can i do? [17:53] mah454, i gotta run, send it to compdoc or josephnexus [17:53] brb updateing os [17:53] ChronicSyncope: Am I allowed to have as many of those as I want? [17:53] econdudeawesome: does echoing the ansi escape sequence for "reset" or maybe "black background" work? [17:53] mah454, its not receiving - paste the shot online [17:53] Planet_EN, im uncertain what eth0 is... is eth0 a port on the side of your computer where you plug a wire, or is it a wireless connection [17:53] hello [17:53] mikebot, as far as I know. you can create them with any real partition manager [17:53] anyone with "Out of range" error after 11.04 install? [17:53] mikebot, i gotta run, sorry [17:53] hmm [17:53] ChronicSyncope: OK, thnaks [17:53] jrib: I'll give that a try too [17:53] can you update ubuntu 10.10 to 10.11 or do you have to download the iso and install fully? [17:53] ok, I have 2 external monitors on my laptop running ubuntu, 1 port is display port and its "DP or laptop monitor" cant use both. so i dont use laptop screen. however power just went out and i lost my monitors, and switching to a TTY1 gave me a screen, i want to know if its possible to reenter a gui from TTy1 while X is running on TTY7? [17:54] Hi, I cannot boot natty from my USB; i get a mounting problem: http://pastebin.com/JvF0fTRa [17:54] econdudeawesome, it certainly is plymouth, but plymouth just modifies the framebuffer, you need to switch it back i think you can do stuff like that with fbset. you might check if there are gentoo docs on this [17:54] <_Neytiri_> does anyone know how to make bash log in realtime [17:54] conorhogan: You can upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04. [17:54] _Neytiri_, shopt -s histappend and ... [17:54] mello: I have the same problem [17:54] ChronicSyncope http://mahsom.persiangig.com/image/Screenshot-1.png [17:54] Hi. When I do a sudo do-release-upgrade I get connection timed out/unable to connect for archive.canonical.com. Should I go ahead with the upgrade? [17:54] scialen: did you boot from USB too or is it a CD? [17:54] ChronicSyncope http://mahsom.persiangig.com/image/Screenshot.png [17:54] export PROMPT_COMMAND='history -a' [17:54] mello: how did you create the USB stilck [17:54] compdoc http://mahsom.persiangig.com/image/Screenshot.png === rodrigo is now known as rodrigo___ [17:54] CD, then DVD on the CD iso [17:54] stick [17:55] i followed the instructions for installing and configuring LAMP, available here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP , but when i browse to http://localhost i get a 403 forbidden error [17:55] compdoc http://mahsom.persiangig.com/image/Screenshot-1.png [17:55] Veloce06: unetbootin [17:55] I'm now downloading the DVD iso [17:55] _Neytiri_, if that was what you meant [17:55] witchsong - how? and is that the newest ? thanks [17:55] Veloce06: I'm going to format it again... [17:55] but mine was an I/O error [17:55] hello, i am trying to setup a home server/gateway using linux server 10.04 and 2 NICS, from the server i use eth1 to dial PPPoE to router and can ping out to internet from server. I use eth0 to switch to give access to client PC's. from the clients i can be assigned dhcp from server and can ping the server. however i cannot ping the internet, the server is blocking requests(?). i have setup [17:55] packet-forwarding=1 and have put some rules into iptables, but i think i messed up the iptables rules... could someone inspect the iptables rules, this is 1st time im doing it, and let me know what they think? - http://paste.ubuntu.com/600339/ [17:55] <_Neytiri_> not sure if it is, i want to make it so as the commands are being run it loges them [17:55] ubuntu 11.04 :D [17:55] Make sure the usb stick is fat32, mine was having problems because it was fat16. [17:55] compdoc I use firefox-4 [17:56] i am upgrading to 11.04 but the downloads are really slow [17:56] ChronicSyncope I use firefox-4 [17:56] when I reformatted to fat32 and did unetbootin again it worked fine [17:56] skabja: similar thing here... I think the servers are a bit overwhelmed [17:56] I have Firefox on Ubuntu 11.04, but I do not have an import/export option in the "show all bookmarks menu." Does anybody know how else I can import my bookmarks? [17:56] Veloce06: I will try now.. gparted is rnning [17:56] Why aren't my compiz settings saving throughout a reboot? [17:56] _Neytiri_, as distinct from history? [17:57] conorhogan: Just boot from the DVD and the setup will give you the option to either wipe your existing 10.10 install before you install or just upgrade it to 11.04. [17:57] mello: I just got mine working as we speak [17:57] econdudeawesome: what variation of setterm did you try exactly? [17:57] Hello. I dual-boot Ubuntu and Windows 7 and have 2 data partitions which I intended on sharing between the two, however, the newest partition isn't in the GPT table - is there a safe way to add it without breaking anything? :P [17:57] Veloce06: my unetbootin is running :) let's see.. [17:57] witchsong - thanks, i just booted in and i got a pop up to install. wasnt expecting that with linux === lima is now known as fslima0 [17:57] Does anyone else have the issue that the launcher area cannot be used by other applications? Like there is an overlay which won't let you click through? [17:57] <_Neytiri_> escott, what do you mean by that [17:57] skabja, if you search google for 'ubuntu mirrors' you can see the d/l speeds of each site. pick a site thats fast. It took me about 6 mins to d/l 11.04 a little while ago [17:57] Hello. I have a hard disk problem, S.M.A.R.T. is going bad and I want to recover as much data as I can. I'm doing that via Live CD, but I need to take ownership of the drive. Could you please guide me into doing that? [17:58] ok guys compiz on natty is messed up, cant use the cube mode and stuff [17:58] Witchsong: You mean in 11.04? [17:58] Yes. [17:58] i have an external monitors i use for my display, and powers out with them off (laptop), is there a command i can run from a diff TTY thatll make my GUI TTY move back to laptop screen? [17:58] is 11.04 a stable release? [17:58] yes [17:58] _Neytiri_, i don't know what you mean. you want to log all commands entered in bash? those are already stored in the users history if it is for personal use. or is for an audit/security [17:58] conorhogan: yes [17:58] Is there an application that easily let's you chose and install themes? I use natty narwhal. [17:59] jrib - ill upgrade then thanks [17:59] PhoenixSTF: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/04/compiz-cube-natty/ [17:59] ChronicSyncope can you contact to ubuntu web master for fix this ? [17:59] i followed the instructions for installing and configuring LAMP, available here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP , but when i browse to http://localhost i get a 403 forbidden error. Anyone have any ideas? (Before i did any configuration changes after install, as specified in the doc, it was working.) [17:59] 64 bit mirror -> http://hoellenecke.de/flipp/tmp/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-amd64.iso [17:59] ahhhh [17:59] pindropper: Try sudo service apache2 restart [17:59] natty causing unnecessary problems for me! [17:59] Im installnig 11.04 right now, but its stuck: Retrieving file 9 of 30 [17:59] pindropper: Just after installation there can be problems like that [17:59] OvidiuZeicu, take ownership? you shouldn't need to just mount the partitions and copy the data [17:59] cdbs: ok. [17:59] <[Soma]> anyone here know how to deal with performance issues when it comes to flash. with windows, I can easily watch 1080p youtube videos on fullscreen. with youtube, 480 is as high as I can go without it going choppy. and flash games are virtually unplayable. [17:59] NO backlight at all after booting! [17:59] gaara: What are the problems? [17:59] compdoc Can you contact to ubuntu web master for fix this ? [17:59] OvidiuZeicu: gksudo nautilus will give you a file-manager with superuser privileges. Where do you want to save your files to? [17:59] someone help [17:59] <_Neytiri_> i want to log all commands that happin in bash as they get run, i have several users who are trying to cover there tracks by boming out the shell [17:59] skabja if you search 64 bit heres a mirror http://hoellenecke.de/flipp/tmp/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-amd64.iso [17:59] gaara: Which GPU? [17:59] is a geforce 2 mx200 hardware supported to run 11.04? [18:00] cdbs, the screen is dead dark === song is now known as Guest56835 [18:00] It doesn't work. It won`t let me copy many of them because I'm not the owner. [18:00] cdbs, well i dont have a dedicated graphics card...but its an integrated intel onboard gfx card [18:00] cdbs: it gives me an error. it says "/etc/init.d/apache2: 1: ServerName: not found" [18:00] Many, but not all, and that is weird. [18:00] mah454, that picture you posted doesnt really show the problem, because another window is in the way. I have no problems. what country and site are you trying to open? [18:00] screen on laptop is busted, is there anyway to turn it off and set external port as primary monitor from terminal [18:00] mtlife: not by the nvidia driver, only by nv or noveau (the open source ones) [18:00] OvidiuZeicu, then sudo your copy command === Lorthirk`ZNC is now known as Lorthirk [18:01] pindropper: modify /etc/apache2/httpd.conf and write in it: ServerName 127.0.0.1 [18:01] OvidiuZeicu, and make sure to use the switch to preserve permissions [18:01] compdoc I live in Iran ... [18:01] What is Unity's relationship to Ubuntu? Can Unity be installed on other Linux Distributions or is it exclusive to Ubuntu Only? [18:01] pindropper: then run that command again [18:01] cdbs: ok [18:01] OvidiuZeicu, cp -aR [18:01] cdbs, so i dont know if its a gpu issue, but i know it boots successfully into natty, but screen is dead dark! backlighting does not work [18:01] roasted_: There is some work ongoing to port it to Fedora, they've had quite much success [18:01] Does anyone else have the issue that the launcher area cannot be used by other applications? Like there is an overlay which won't let you click through? [18:01] roasted_, ubuntu only [18:01] mah454, maybe its your government blocking it [18:01] OvidiuZeicu: sudo rsync -av /media/damaged_drive/ /media/good_drive [18:01] Ok, I'll try this one. Thank you. :) [18:01] stefg: and do they work good enough for basic desktop activities? reliefing/unburden the cpu? [18:01] hi all. I've just tried booting 11.04 live cd and i get this: http://www2.ryankaskel.com/misc/images/screenshots/natty-startup.jpg How should I proceed? [18:01] gaara: did you upgrade or fresh-install? [18:01] mah454, whats the url youre opening? [18:01] cdbs, im guessing this is a common issue, unsolved though, because going thru the various forums did not help either [18:01] fresh install [18:02] escott, sounds like its Ubuntu only just for now [18:02] cdbs, fresh install [18:02] guys, I'm having trouble installing from CD and DVD - I can not mount /dev/loop0 to //filesystem.squashfs due to an I/O error, can you help? [18:02] cdbs, good deal man. I didn't know Fedora was tinkering with it. [18:02] Could anyone tell me how long the upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 will take? [18:02] hello. after i installed gnome-shell in ubuntu 11.04 (for gnome 3), even if i login and select ubuntu classic (with gnome 2), i can`t change the theme for taskbars and click2 menu, but only for window borders [18:02] escott: So I am looking at -rgba option on fbset, and I see 8/16, 8/8, 8/0, 0,0 as the information [18:02] roasted_: Debian folks were also interested, but they didn't start work (yet) [18:02] Polah, 20 minutes [18:02] is there any way to kill output to built in laptop monitor and make the secondary screen output primary in terminal [18:02] gaara: Does it work well from the LiveCD? [18:02] no [18:02] Polah, took me about 45 mins when I upgraded to the beta a week ago [18:02] gaara: Alright, thanks. [18:03] cdbs, no, i had to install it using nomodeset [18:03] Why are most Apps opening maximised when I launch them?!? [18:03] compdoc: Thanks again, I just wanted a general timeframe. Obviously it won't be a specific time for everyone [18:03] gaara: So does nomodeset work now? [18:03] econdudeawesome, fbset may not be the right program but there is bound to be something similar. you could also check if plymouth is a script in which case it would call out to the background setting program. check the gentoo docs they had a period when everyone was configuring framebuffer backgrounds [18:03] compdoc in opera is true ... ! firefox have problem ! [18:03] I don't have a pidgin indicator in the messaging menu anymore (in natty). How can I re-enable it? [18:03] mtlife: i don't know. to use unity you'll need the nouveau driver (which is somewhat 3d capable). nv is fine for the classic desktop. But given that a entry level nvidia card is about 20$/Euros you should consider replacing your card if you really want unity [18:03] mah454, try the refresh button [18:04] cdbs: i changed servername to 127.0.0.1 from localhost, and reran the command to restart, same error! [18:04] cdbs, when you say debian folks were interested, you're talking about just making unity possible on that platform, not the default, right? [18:04] cdbs, nomodeset works, but as you can quite understand, it loads into a lame gnome ui, without any graphics driver, with sick resolutions [18:04] why my downloading upgrade so slow? im just now streaming a video from 1 site, and its more faster then the upgrading ubuntu 11.04. anyone have the same? [18:04] how can i use zeitgeist [18:04] roasted_: yes, just available, not default (yet) === gtklocker is now known as Guest20267 [18:04] stefg: thanks ill just try it out, otherwise i'll just keep running lxde :) [18:04] compdoc i use this ... [18:04] compdoc tnx :) [18:04] anyone have the same problem as me? [18:04] i can select only unity-2d not unity. what do i have to install to have unity in gdm? [18:04] cdbs, do you think theyll default it? It sounds like most others were more interested in gnome shell as the default [18:04] compdoc I use Opera for this site ... :) [18:04] Could anyone help me to get a driver for my wireless card please? [18:04] pindropper, have toy tried reinstalling apache? [18:04] cdbs, from what I gathered, at least. [18:05] Hi everyone, I am using Ubuntu 10.10. I have tried install Ubuntu 11.04 but I cannot run to install it. When I select "Install", I get black screen. Do you have any idea how can I install Ubuntu 11.04? [18:05] gaara: Try running sudo update-initramfs, then sudo update-grub2, then set nomodeset again, then reboot [18:05] MrsHillBilly, what's your wireless card? [18:05] yuskhanzab: I guess the servers are getting overloaded a bit at the moment. Apt-get install is also slower than normal at the moment. [18:05] mustafa, i have the same issue, cdbs suggested something to me just now [18:05] mknarr: i just installed it. it was working post install. then i configured site to a new location and all hell broke lose [18:05] is there a shortcut to change worskpaces in 10.10/11.04? [18:06] conorhogan, yes [18:06] roasted_: They don't have an aim like us. Their main aim is to ship all the desktops out there (Debian) or provide something which is and was very much popular as GNOME (Fedora) [18:06] conorhogan, its like CTRL ALT arrow or something [18:06] Its a Belkin 7D47EB [18:06] smplayer should be default media player in ubuntu [18:06] owh, thx for the information mnoyce. [18:06] conorhogan, i think it was super+s [18:06] awh ... wanted to dist-upgrade to release but apparently nothing to upgrade to yet ... mirrors take forevvvvvver [18:06] roasted_ perfect works thanks [18:06] pindropper, hmmm did you modify the virtual site file to point to the new location ? [18:06] !ot | roasted_ [18:06] roasted_: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [18:06] rach0 - what? [18:06] its seems like 3 days to upgrade to natty =.= [18:06] i think its the vitural site file [18:06] roasted_: better move this discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic [18:06] cdbs, my apologies. [18:07] conorhogan, nvm [18:07] conorhogan: Super+S or Ctrl+Alt+Arrow [18:07] what is Super-S? [18:07] !natty [18:07] Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/11.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1104 [18:07] cdbs, its enough if i set nomodeset at the grub screen right? for now atleast [18:07] conorhogan: Windows Key + S [18:07] the 'windows' key on most pcs [18:07] ah ok, im on a mac [18:07] gaara: yep, should be enough for now [18:07] mknarr: yes i did. to /home/myname/public_html [18:07] ok , im upgrading, if something fails i want a refund! [18:07] conorhogan: Assuming your keyboard has Windows key, of course... [18:07] "super key" mean windows key in your keyboard [18:08] hi is there any way to disable the appearence of mounted harddrives on the desktop? [18:08] conorhogan: That would be a know then... ;-) [18:08] pindropper, did u assign the proper premissions [18:08] conorhogan: Maybe the "Command" key? [18:08] cdbs, awright, thanks am gonna try it and get back to you if it doesnt work :) if it does, pleaase tell me how i can thank you :) [18:08] step21: get an alternate CD via torrent and use that as an upgrade source..... or even better: wait 6 weeks until the bugs are ironed out :-) [18:08] gaara: Give it a try, I'm not sure about it [18:08] stefg, I am on beta2 already, works well. just want to upgrade to release [18:08] gaara, did you try something and what? [18:08] the right command key works for the windows key in windows - for ubuntu looks like ill have to use str-alt arrow - thanks [18:08] gaara: but in either case, won't do any damage [18:09] rach0 Its a Belkin 7D47EB [18:09] mknarr: i dont think there was any permission change mentioned in the doc. so i dint have to do anything as such permission related. but i did check the permissions on the public_html file it has public access [18:09] its safe to proceed [18:09] hi is there any way to disable the appearence of mounted harddrives on the desktop? [18:09] mustafa: wait for a while, he'll test if a possible fix works [18:09] i can select only unity-2d not unity. what do i have to install to have unity in gdm? [18:09] pinewhat was the error message again [18:10] Hi, I have an issue with ssh access. Ie. am not able to ssh as root to one of my server bcoz its denied in ssh conf. But on this server we have our client application running which is communicating the server through webservices. I want to enble root access ssh. we have option to send a payload script,which will not ask for authentication.can some one tell me how enble root ssh remotely? [18:10] mknarr: it gives me an error. it says "/etc/init.d/apache2: 1: ServerName: not found" [18:10] step21. if you did your last update 2 days ago you should be on release level. Except unimportant timezone updates there wasn't much happening yesterday and today [18:10] stefg, okay, then I am on release level. thanks for clearing that up [18:10] hello. after i installed gnome-shell in ubuntu 11.04 (for gnome 3), even if i login and select ubuntu classic (with gnome 2), i can`t change the theme for taskbars and click2 menu, but only for window borders [18:10] mknarr: i now did sudo pkill apache2 to force shut. how do i restart it. sudo apache2 start doesnt work [18:10] pindropper, ok give me a sec to look at some of my files [18:11] mknarr: cool. thanks [18:11] ssav, ssh as root is not encouraged, you can always ssh as normal user then sudo and do whatever you want [18:11] is ubuntu one free? [18:11] pindropper, to start the service again all you should have to do is sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start [18:11] !ubuntuone [18:11] Ubuntu One is a service where you can back up, store, sync and share your data with other Ubuntu One users - For more see https://one.ubuntu.com/ support and help available at #ubuntuone [18:11] step21: the 11.04 installation disc seems much better than the 10. versions though so its worth downloading. [18:11] mknarr: ok thanks [18:12] WHOAAAA the download speed of the release upgrade is going so fast that my pc cant keep up with the enormous lightning speed [18:12] root access is denied and normal user login was allowed. but password has been lost. any way to reset the password ? [18:12] burg, this is likely due to gnome3/shell ... try removing it ^^ [18:12] probl couse unity is fail and we all are running other distros [18:12] stfg - thanks [18:12] After my upgrade to 11.04 my panel is gone, how to fix?

[18:12] Killyou: feel free to contribute and run your own mirror :-) [18:12] step21, apt-get remove gnome3-shell didn`t fix the problem === Terminator_ is now known as Terminator [18:13] lol fast eh? Waiting over an hour for all 208MB of eclipse to download so i can build my first android app! [18:13] Killyou, maybe you can try a torrent dl? [18:13] pindropper, kk h/o a sec [18:13] gogeta, then what are you doing here? [18:13] I feel disappointed on 11.04, how to DOWNGRADE to 10.10 [18:13] Killyou: that`s you, my speed was about 2.8MB/s [18:13] it says 9 hours remaining hehe [18:13] burg, any other pkgs that the ppa installed? [18:13] mknarr: sorry. waiting. [18:13] how to enable unitz 2d?? [18:13] jrib: you mentioned entering "text" as an option in Grub--when do I do that? At startup or in a config file somewhere? [18:13] burg, I heard installing from source worked better with gnome2/unity side by side [18:13] Yeah I gave up on downloading the CD and went torrent. [18:13] burg, there is a guide on webupd8.org [18:14] phoenixsampras: restore the backup you made before upgrading [18:14] econdudeawesome: how did you invoke "setterm" earlier? [18:14] After my upgrade to 11.04 my panel is gone, how to fix? [18:14] jrib: setterm -background black [18:14] econdudeawesome: "text" is something you would add to your grub line in grub either manually one time to test or in grub's configuration file [18:14] econdudeawesome: what shell do you use? [18:14] lazlo, in unity? [18:14] is there any shell script to reset the passwd . If so I can send a payload and execute the script [18:14] yes [18:14] ssav: why? [18:14] phoenixsampras: well your better running something like kde these days gtk itsself has gone downhill after gnome 2 however there is a remix of ubuntu out thats uses gnome 2 on 11.04 [18:15] step21: yes [18:15] ssav, yank the drive, mount on another system, sudo/chroot/passwd === Guest92040 is now known as ssfdre38 [18:15] jrib: tty1 [18:15] anyone else noticed a lack of nbr despite there being a link to it from the main site?

[18:15] Salt: ah [18:15] lazlo, bout you can log into classic?

[18:28] Spkes: I share the sentiment. Unity is a step backwards, as is Gnome3 [18:28] ubottu, IdleOne sorry, i'll watch it [18:28] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [18:28] Spkes: thank you.

[18:31] cordoval_, then decide... is it a better use of your time to backup data and reinstall from scratch, or try to continue an upgrade of a potentially hosed system [18:31] escott: I don't have a livecd [18:31] Howdy, is the Update Manager normally this borked on Ubuntu updates?

[18:32] I have a window at "fullscreen" (in unity), why the close, minimize button not clickable, when I'm hitting the top of the screen with the mouse? [18:32] I can backup data then but could I just plugin an external usb and fetch it? [18:32] ssav, I don't think with your knowledge what you want will work [18:32] Can someone help me with IPTables please and setting up for some protection against DDoS [18:32] It gives me the option to go to older kernels [18:32] do i have to call an indian help ctr? [18:32] perhaps I can go into one of them and try reinstalling? [18:32] could someone help? It seems that ufw is denying igmpt packets [18:32] elssha, so you can't choose to login to classic in gdm? [18:32] this is an asus g73 [18:32] cdbs, it dint work [18:33] bummer :P they should make the updater a torrent client and let everyone who's downloading also share the files! dunno how hard that would be to do but I think it would probably be good! [18:33] I will go to kernel 27 [18:33] cdbs, :( [18:33] gaara: Same problem? :( [18:33] i think 28 is natty [18:33] !patience > jake_ [18:33] jake_, please see my private message [18:33] rats it can't mount / [18:33] elssha, if you are on that pc now, what are you running if nothing works?

[18:36] cdbs, I do not open liveCD even [18:36] ThomasUK: just got back to the computer, but I think quite a few people are going to other distro's, because of 11.04, Unity being a main reason, to be honest [18:36] cordoval_, and it would be /dev/sda# for whatever your root partition is [18:36] cdbs, does it make a difference that i already have a 10.10 installation on a different drive? [18:36] elssha, then log into classic and try to fix things from there [18:36] gaara: shouldn't make a difference [18:36] yeah 11.04 sucks [18:36] step21; what's classic? [18:36] maybe opensuse [18:36] ThomasUK: oh you tried it already then? [18:36] will work :D [18:36] ThomasUK: Whatsammatter? [18:36] Does anyone know on natty in unity how to get applets on the top bar. Specifically a stock applet or even a standalone program. [18:36] sebsebseb: when I get asked to put it on our PXE system I'm going to say.. no :) [18:37] gaara: And is the problem with nomodeset set is the same as it came while installing? [18:37] we tried it in the DC [18:37] ThomasUK, no it doesn't it just has bugs as expected, mainly with Unity [18:37] can I configure somehow the close/minimize/maximize buttons BUT WHEN AT FULLSCREEN? [18:37] !pm | jake_ [18:37] jake_: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. [18:37] ThomasUK: PXE system ? [18:37] sebsebseb: automatic deployment of OS's on servers [18:37] i want my old gnome back how can i get it? [18:37] ThomasB2k: sebsebseb Please take the chat to #ubuntu-offtopic. [18:37] escott: oh so I should have trieddev/sda1 [18:37] elssha, where you log in, at the bottom there is a bar where you can choose to log into an environment that is more like the old version, it should work [18:37] ThomasUK: In the District of Columbia? [18:37] hmm [18:37] jake_: read ubottu's factoid [18:37] err ThomasUK I meant [18:37] rats! [18:37] it is doing something [18:37] oh no [18:37] cdbs, it is behaving the same way as it behaved during installation also [18:37] wrong [18:37] I better get that cd [18:37] cordoval_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [18:37] ThomasUK: right yeah, better to stay with 10.04 for the servers, since that's Long Term Support [18:37] Hi I am using 10.04 and was wondering when would be the best time to update to 11.04 [18:37] sfdsafdsafdsa, in the gdm menu select ubuntu classic [18:37] how can i install back to old gnome? [18:37] "could not download the release notes" < is that ubuntu being overloaded or is my conn being funny? [18:37] cordoval_, yep. [18:38] gaara: then I don't think a lot can be dome [18:38] how 11.04 is working guys i am thinking to install it or i should wait for few days more? [18:38] can I configure somehow the close/minimize/maximize buttons BUT WHEN AT FULLSCREEN? [18:38] thanx ill take alook at that [18:38] sfdsafdsafdsa: Select 'ubuntu classic desktop' session at login [18:38] sfdsafdsafdsa, you can pick classic gnome on login at the bottom [18:38] hey i have installed ubuntu 11.04 and decided i wanted to try out unity.. its fine and all, but im wondering if there is a was to keep compiz enabled, but yet not have it change the windows? [18:38] ok I will try 10.10 livecd and I guess I choose to try ubuntu there or what? [18:38] step21; ty, i'll try [18:38] gotta restart [18:38] ThomasUK: 10.04 server edition to be exact, since with the desktop you would only get the three years support, instead of the five [18:38] ok [18:38] login out [18:38] jiltdil: I#d wait 6 weeks and do a net-intsall [18:38] cordoval_, yeah thats fine to fix the disk [18:38] i've got a pretty old dual core which works on i386 in 32bits for now is it advise to try the 64bits or not????what is the edge of 64 bits? [18:38] can I configure somehow the close/minimize/maximize buttons BUT WHEN AT FULLSCREEN? [18:38] sebsebseb: yeah i know [18:38] ok going for it [18:38] ThomasUK: or you could go Debian or CentOS or something :D [18:38] cdbs, do u work for canonical? or u just a fan like me? [18:38] lol [18:38] gaara: I am both [18:38] laumonier: how much ram? [18:39] stefg:is there any cause [18:39] cdbs: No package called ccsm :/ [18:39] does anyone know if skype works right away on 11.04 [18:39] Also, does anyone know if it's possible to upgrade from 32bit to 64bit? I'd like to do it without nuking /home if possible [18:39] cdbs, canonical Uk? [18:39] can I configure somehow the close/minimize/maximize buttons BUT WHEN AT FULLSCREEN? [18:39] laumonier, grep lm /proc/cpuinfo to see if you have 64bit [18:39] ror, no its not [18:39] ror, no its not possible === tlyu_ is now known as tlyu [18:39] MichealH, it is called something like compiz-config-settings-manager [18:39] thanks :( [18:39] gaara: pm [18:39] cdbs, ? [18:39] stefg one giga [18:39] ror, im stuck with the same problem [18:39] step21: yup [18:39] MichealH: compizconfig-settings-manager [18:40] jiltdil: ubuntu has never been good at getting releases ready ..... they release at the given date, not when it's /really/ fit for a relaese [18:40] what is ror? [18:40] Fodi69, not afaik [18:40] cdbs do you know how i can have normal windows in unity? [18:40] sebsebseb: provide support or part the channel. telling people about your personal opinion on Unity is off topic for this channel. If you want to chat you already know about #ubuntu-offtopic. Suggesting people use other distros is also not acceptable for #ubuntu. [18:40] gaara, did it work? [18:40] mustafa: I don't think a lot can be done [18:40] and also would it matter if it is a 64 machine and it is a 32 bit live cd? [18:40] cordoval_, who is ror? [18:40] mustafa: Which GPU? [18:40] escott: [18:40] mustafa, nope :( [18:40] cdbs: You had to change package names -.- [18:40] IdleOne: hmm ok [18:40] laumonier: stick with 32 bit. your rm is precious, and adobe flash is tricky in 64 bit [18:40] ElNino: Normal Windows? Select Ubuntu Classic session at login [18:40] cordoval_, you can still boot and run the fsck. [18:40] cdbs, ATI Mobility 3650. [18:40] sebsebseb: thank you, [18:40] step21: but why, this ultimately sucks and no config for it? [18:40] stefg:ok thanks if you don't mind may you tell what kind or problem will i face if i installed it yet? [18:40] mustafa: weird then. When you click 'Try Ubuntu' what comes? [18:40] can I configure somehow the close/minimize/maximize buttons BUT WHEN AT FULLSCREEN? [18:40] cdbs ubuntu classic will be unity too? [18:41] laumonier: 64bit only makes sense on servers and with >4G ram [18:41] cdbs, black screen only [18:41] stefg: >3G ram [18:41] stefg ty for your help [18:41] ok it is bootting [18:41] I have trouble installing the newest version of Ubuntu Linux. Help with PM. [18:41] Fodi69, prob because that's how it makes sense ... in classic you can still configure them [18:41] cordoval_, step 1 is going to be fsck. step 2 is to decide between (a) backing up data, downloading disk and reinstalling or (b) trying to boot and resuming the install from console. i would suggest (a) [18:41] I guess I should choose the option to try ubuntu [18:41] 64bit makes sense with anything more then 3gb [18:41] stefg: also i have 4gb of ram and 64bit supporting hardware shoul di go for 64bit [18:41] blame flash for being crashy [18:41] Fodi69, also, don't spam [18:41] Oh. Natty was officially released. /That's/ why it's so busy in here. [18:42] cdbs: well in unity the top of the window turns orange and transparant instead of dark grey like normal [18:42] jiltdil, its not just about ram, there are also more registers and sse extensions in 64bit [18:42] how to go for b [18:42] mustafa, what about for you? [18:42] sounds easier [18:42] step21: yeah, but this way it is UNUSABLE...... [18:42] cordoval_, ask about (b) AFTER you do the fsck please [18:42] ElNino: screenshot please, I can't understand [18:42] ok [18:42] I have not tried something yet. [18:42] cdbs: 2 sec [18:42] Fodi69: unity is fail but shhh [18:42] I will do fsck /dev/sda1 [18:42] gaara, I have not tried something yet. [18:42] I got the default [18:42] escott:please tell me [18:42] cordoval_, and (b) is substantially harder and may not result in a working system [18:43] rats [18:43] How's Ubuntu 10.04? [18:43] 11 [18:43] gogeta: then why forcing it? :( [18:43] http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zfjsZBC3Ajk/TbfO95Lv25I/AAAAAAAAB-o/8qQlSBeoAVY/s1600/Screenshot.png <-- How can I sort the sidepane elements into groups like that? [18:43] I meant that [18:43] sorry [18:43] Fodi69, I find it quite usable. like I said if you want the old one back choose classic at login [18:43] Ubuntu 11.04 freeze for me. :( [18:43] Fodi69: couse cannel cant let go of gtk [18:43] What's wrong with Unity? [18:43] mustafa, do u have an intel gfx card? [18:43] gaara, no ATI. [18:43] ray_, ubuntu 10.04 is tip top, while ubuntu 11.04 ain't yet [18:43] is unity better than gnome? [18:43] Hedgehog456: its differnt then what people are used to. [18:43] jiltdil, the wikipedia page on AMD64 is pretty informative. most developers are going 64bit, but some software (adobe flash) works a little better in 32bit [18:43] jiltdil: that's my belly speaking, i have no particular reason to advise that. Regarding the 32 vs. 64 bit question: if you do lots of number crunching (video encoding) 64 bits might pay off, but for a standard desktop system 32-bit with pae will be more convinient [18:43] jiltdil: try it out. decide for yourself. [18:44] jiltdil, depends on personal preference [18:44] jiltdil: no but gnome 3 is fail to sooo [18:44] I guess Unity is more user-friendly... [18:44] I like Unity a lot, but I am not used to it yet. [18:44] step21: this layout is kind of nice, but fucking buggy and unusable :( [18:44] jibel: Unity at the moment goes on top of Gnome 2, another interface for it, but for the next one, it will go on top of Gnome 3 instead of using their interface by default Gnome Shell [18:44] escott: now I open a terminal on the ubuntu 32 and type fsck /dev/sda# so the # is not going to be 1 [18:44] 64bits gives me a decent improvement in the video reencoding I do. [18:44] thanks to all [18:44] is going to be something else I hope it can at least mount it [18:44] yes and do it for all your partitions [18:44] Fodi69: Please mind your language. [18:44] I think I should wait first [18:44] rats! [18:44] oh ok [18:44] thanks escott! [18:44] cordoval_, you may need to sudo [18:44] cdbs: http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/jm9z71n5/Selection_001.png <-- this is what i want gone [18:44] o/ [18:45] yes will do [18:45] n2diy: did you get your answer yet? [18:45] * cdbs looks [18:45] Fodi69, taste varies I guess. anything specific that you don't like (not that I can do anything about it) [18:45] Fodi69: its been buggy and unstable sense the day they launched it in 10.10 [18:45] ElNino: why? it is lovely! [18:45] ElNino: which theme are you using? [18:45] IdleOne: There's a ubottu command for that, just so you don't have to type as much ^_^: !wtf [18:45] Can anyone give me ftp address to download ubuntu iso? [18:45] in your opinion which is better gnom3 or unity [18:45] cdbs: default [18:45] cordoval_, you may want it to automatically fix any errors it finds in which case fsck -p [18:45] hey, I just upgraded to 11.04, messed around with my nvidia graphics settings and now cannot get into my box! [18:45] Guest20267: no its awefull [18:45] can anyone assist? [18:45] Hedgehog456: yup I know but sometimes ubottu is a little too impersonal. :) [18:45] upgrade is so slow... 50kb/s ;/ [18:45] ElNino: Try running unity --reset from Alt+f2, if that doesn't fix it then re-check theme settings and make sure its ambiance [18:45] is 11.04 a LTS release? [18:46] step21: better they fork gnome 2 call it there own [18:46] !best | jiltdil [18:46] jiltdil: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [18:46] g4: no [18:46] escott: so the command I should run is fsck -p /dev/sda#? [18:46] i keep getting message 'tempory failiure in name resolution' [18:46] step21: rather then trainwreck the distro with unity [18:46] for each partition [18:46] Yes, a year ago when I asked to understand about partitions. I only found FUD. I really really like this, just found it... http://tldp.org/LDP/intro-linux/html/sect_03_01.html in general overview of the linux system: 3.1.2.2. Partition layout and types [18:46] when I go to fullscreen, the minimize/maximize/close buttons can't be reached by a fast mouse move, must play with it.... [18:46] escott: so the command I should run is fsck -p /dev/sda#? for each partition [18:46] mtlife: do the math, if 11.04 went hot today, and everyone is downloading it, say 100,000+ people, how sucky do you think the bandwidth will be? [18:46] In what folders does the Dash search for files? [18:46] loseweighttttttt: servers overloaded [18:46] cordoval_, good practice to see your errors first before you start correcting them, but yes [18:46] gogeta, this is support and I'm not really hre to get into that argument [18:46] Guys, how do i install gnome3 in 10.10? [18:46] !lts | g4 [18:46] g4: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) [18:46] HyperShock, no [18:47] Eduard, ppa or compile, google is your friend [18:47] Heh, I've upgraded to 11.04 but I can't get the Super / Win key working on Compiz. It just shows up as Multi_key. I've tried changing the keyboard options for Win key behaviour but to no avail, but binding Caps Lock with Super does work. Any help? I'm using a Logitech MK520 keyboard. [18:47] rats livecd is slow in loading [18:47] HyperShock: I made the math ;)... i upgraded my other distro before it went live (beta2) and it was ALOT faster haha... should have upgraded my main also ;/ [18:47] cordoval_, that way you know that if it reports lots of errors on /usr/lib/libglib or some such that your libglib is hosed [18:47] wonder why this is an asus g73 [18:47] escott: there's a ppa :) [18:47] escott: i'll get a link hold on [18:47] sebsebseb, for what? [18:47] step21: tried googling it already, i only get results pointing to test ppa. Gnome3 was already released, i need to find a stable one [18:47] !hoary [18:47] Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog) was the second release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: October 31, 2006. See !eol for more details. [18:47] cdbs: youre a hero :) [18:48] escott: oh wrong person [18:48] n2diy: were you asking in regards to gnome? [18:48] gaara, cdbs, no solution? [18:48] Eduard: there's a Gnome 3 ppa, i'll get al ink [18:48] !eol > Hedgehog456 [18:48] Hedgehog456, please see my private message [18:48] ElNino: gaara mustafa Okay, I gotta go, bye === Guest20267 is now known as gtklocker [18:48] ElNino: cdbs is also the poster child for Ubuntu ;) [18:48] cdbs, thanks [18:48] ah dang cdbs it worked then falled back [18:48] sebsebseb: ok, thanks [18:48] mustafa, am gonna try downloading the dvd and seeing if it works [18:48] Eduard, there is a gnome 3 ppa for ubuntu but it's far from stable, use it at your own risk [18:48] Edgan, I don't think there is a stable one. webupd8.org has links to ppa and to compile, apparently compiling works better with a running system [18:49] just got livecd working [18:49] ok [18:49] anyone know how to enable visual effect in Natty? that option is missing from System->Appearance [18:49] Eduard, have heard from some that it breaks unity [18:49] I knew i had not bought an asus g73 for nothing [18:49] gaara, ok [18:49] n2diy: because to get the hard disk monitor on your panel, simply right click the panel you want the monitor on, choose add to panel, then select and add, system monitor. when it appears on the panel, right click it and choose configure, there you can add the hard disk and much more. [18:49] rats! [18:49] alguien sabe como eliminar la leyenda que aparece arriba de la cuenta regresiva del grub asi como el marco? :þ [18:49] gaara, can you share the link? [18:49] escott: i'm on 10.10 gnome 2.32 [18:49] Eduard: with the Gnome 3 ppa, you don't quite get the 100% proper full expereince, that you would get in other distro's that use it by default, but well if it works, should be ok enough for now [18:49] !es | D-coy [18:49] D-coy: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. [18:49] for the dvd?

[18:50] I wonder if I reinstall ubuntu if it will keep my data intact [18:50] IdleOne, thanks but, she m4v ban me, I don't know :S [18:50] n2diy: yw [18:50] sebsebseb: i understand that :). So, you checked the link to ppa? [18:50] rats! ok escott, sorry rats! is like to convey frustration [18:50] hi all [18:50] if my current maverick version is 32-bit, and I'm installing 64-bit natty, will it read my /home? (I have a separate /home partition) [18:51] jrib: where would I put the "text" option in the Grub2?

[18:52] thank you [18:52] strigoi66: That's not a good idea. Who knows whether a web site is malicious? [18:52] jrib:should i install 11.04 or wait some days? [18:52] Senix - yes, just use the software center and search for 7zip [18:52] I'm happy with python-docky, but I see that the installer say it's no longer needed? https://bit.ly/mvgmQF I can reinstall after upgrade?

I have a UCK modified Ubuntu Live CD. A bug in UCK (or a bad interaction with my setup) mean I can't complete my customizations. Can I do them manually? [18:53] varunvyas: you got to go through 10.10 [18:53] kwtm: in Opera and I think firefox, you can get an addon called WOT (web of trust), it will tell you very aptly if a website is malicious [18:53] stREaKer, i mean the default driver that comes with the installation, no fglrx stuff [18:53] Can I upgrade from 11.04 BETA to the final version, or do I have to re-install?

To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [18:54] I am upgreading to 10.10 (my bad) [18:54] how do I make my dock stick so it does not autohide. There is no "settings" that i can find for it ubuntu 11.04 [18:54] Tom__: however even so ^ it may be a great idea to re install, to make 100% sure you have the proper expereince [18:54] varunvyas, does it say why is aborts? [18:54] pl [18:54] laptop screen busted can only see half of screen, is there anyway to shut off the screen and make external vga port primary monitor from terminal [18:54] ok [18:54] kwtm: if you are using linux to surf, what is the max risk you are worried about? [18:54] it has only loop0, sda, sda1, sda2, and sd5 [18:54] it says not able to download packages [18:55] and gives set of pacakges [18:55] gerrin: the xrandr tool perhaps. it may depend on your video chipset. My BIOS settings on my laptop also have such a setting. [18:55] compdoc: yeah the repo's tend to be slow on release day [18:55] it has little information [18:55] anyone able to help out with unity not loading? drivers is ok. but standard session does not load unity after uninstalling unity-2d [18:55] sebsebseb, mine is 7 series so it is old, and yes i have the proprietary driver installed (version 270) i have to use ubuntu classic with no effect bc unity and ubuntu classic freeze my desktop. [18:55] varunvyas: servers are taking a heavy load right now. [18:55] !slow | compdoc [18:55] compdoc: The Ubuntu repositories and ISO mirrors are currently under heavy load. Please consider using !torrents to download ISO images, and be patient with APT updates. Also, try changing !mirrors [18:55] I am doing it again , will capture exact error this time [18:55] Wasn't it suppose to be that 11.04 had Unity as default desktop? [18:55] stREaKer, can you explain what's the problem with booting in Natty [18:55] actually, does anyone know of a UCK-dedicated IRC room? [18:55] Live cd - just loaded the gnome classic desktop here. :() No Unity. heh. [18:55] petsounds: ok bingo, sounds like me with the Beta 2, but I found out about a little trick, to get Unity working, when the propritary driver freezes that may also work for you [18:55] cordoval_, well fsck sda1, sda2, and sda5 (although 5 is probably a swap partition), do you remember how you configured your partitions [18:55] Dr_Willis, Same problem here. [18:56] rach0: PC wont boot up in normal mode and in recovery mode with no GFX it boots [18:56] hey i think the site needs a good fixing [18:56] Proberly due to my vdieo card not having 3d support perhaps. [18:56] Dr_Willis, like whole Unity does not exist at all. [18:56] I already did that [18:56] i was on 11.04 beta, and today no updates at all, is it ok? :) [18:56] rach0: "Error: ./default_policy.sh does not support version" error am facing which installing the driver [18:56] Dr_Willis, how do i run that xrandr, and im running and ati radeon 1200x with amd turion tl60 processor if that helps [18:56] Dr_Willis, my does have but I can not enable Unity anyway. [18:56] oh rats sorry required sudo [18:56] okay, so I managed to get terminal working... now how do I restore the panel the way it was in 11.04? [18:56] petsounds: remove the propritary driver from additional drivers, and then the experimental 3D support driver should show, install that, and it is more likely to work for you :) [18:56] dimkin: sounds like you are uyo to date. [18:56] i want to connect via remote desktop to a ubuntu 10.10 machine from my machine running ubuntu 10.10 [18:56] Does anyone have a working link to 11.04 netbook version? [18:56] stREaKer: you will probably have to reconfigure your x server [18:56] *torrent [18:56] which package should i install on my machine ? [18:56] sebsebseb, ahhh cool will try dat, thanks bro [18:56] Hi, I'm having some slight problems with my new 11.04 upgrade. [18:56] HyperShock: how do I go about doing that? [18:56] so release day doesnt mean new updates will be ? :) [18:56] vncviewer does not work [18:57] mikebot: there isn't one anymore, because Unity is now for both netbooks and Desktop [18:57] Trying to understand "df -h" compared to what I see in "computer" in nautilus. I have 3 drives, 1T main drive booted up on-SATA also with 31G Windows partition., 2 IDE drives 10G 20G. GUI shows this. Can only see the subparts of 1T filesystem in df --- thanks [18:57] Basically, I can't find a program to change the settings of Dash [18:57] sda1 is clean [18:57] mikebot: however Unity should be able to detect when it's running on a netbook or desktop, and then be slightly differnet as well [18:57] stREaKer: you should be able to do it from the recovery mode option in grub [18:57] zombie_: here is a decent list of shortcuts for Unity. http://askubuntu.com/questions/28086/unity-keyboard-mouse-shortcuts/28087#28087 [18:57] stREaKer, do you have the fglrx driver installed? [18:57] timjk, rdesktop for windows style, various vnc clients, and ssh -X for the traditional unix approach [18:57] if you cant get that let me dig out that sudo command [18:57] dimkin: ive often insgtalled the beta. then updated the day befor release.. then dont update till a week after its released.. servers are to overloaded for that week [18:57] petsounds: and would be interested to know if that works for you :) [18:57] Dr_willis:i have nvidia gefore 9400GT does it supports 3D for natty? [18:57] jiltdil: no idea. [18:57] How do i access grub on bootup? [18:57] hi, I just updated to 11.04, but at the end of the update (I'd say it was around the 80% of the package installation step) my pc hanged with a blinking caps lock led. Now, whenever I boot it, I get a blinking caps and the pc hangs. My machine is a Lenovo T61, my network card is an intel 4965 (It seems to be related, at least that's what I found out googling) [18:57] i just generated a key for my SSH shell account! the next time that i tried to log in it asked me for a 'passphrase' and it didn't ask me for my account password!! so now what is the diffrent between it and my password? as if I just changed a new password for my account? isn't it? "generating a Key" what is it use for? [18:57] rach0: I did an upgrade no fresh istallation and yes i had it and it has crashed yet again [18:57] sd2 is fsk.ext2 attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while trying to open dev sda2 [18:57] Any help? [18:57] escott: which vnc client to install ? [18:58] sebsebseb: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/alternative-download [18:58] could this be a zero-length partition? [18:58] jiltdil: i noticed the addational drivers tool. does not list anything for theis Nvidia Gefoirce 6150 I got. [18:58] anyone know how to restore the panel in 11.04? [18:58] stREaKer: sudo Xorg --configure [18:58] HyperShock: where do i find the options...am already booted in ubuntu 11.04 [18:58] !reset-panel [18:58] -p would not fix that [18:58] HyperShock: thanks [18:58] !resetpanel [18:58] To reset the GNOME panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [18:58] !best | timjk [18:58] Thanks! [18:58] timjk: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [18:58] I wonder if that works in 11.04 - proberly does [18:58] Dr_Willis, thanx :) [18:58] quit [18:58] how do i ssh into a computer behind nat? [18:58] !vnc | timjk [18:58] timjk: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX [18:58] stREaKer, alright boot in recovery and sudo apt-get remove --purge fglrx fglrx_* fglrx-amdcccle* fglrx-dev* xorg-driver-fglrx [18:58] sebsebseb, oki dokiee, brb [18:59] this is serious businsess [18:59] cordoval_, could be an extended partition, check gparted and see what it says it is [18:59] Eduard: trying to get the link for you now, but [18:59] binoy, you need to forward the ssh port in your router [18:59] stREaKer, then restart X [18:59] IdleOne: is there a factoid yet for the new help site by the way? [18:59] hi, I just installed ubuntu, I installed graphic card-drivers and when I rebooted, I lost gnome pannels, any idea of how to recover them? [18:59] ohk [18:59] ssav: you still need a script for that ssh issue? [18:59] sebsebseb: which help site? askubuntu? [18:59] escott: i have no access to router [18:59] IdleOne: yep that one [18:59] sebsebseb: not sure.

[19:00] how to upgrade ubuntu from 11.04 beta to new 11.04 ? [19:00] binoy, thats not entirely true, you would have to have someone on the target machine start a connection to the outside though, so for all intents and purposes its not possible [19:00] thien: what filesystem is the partition? [19:00] I will check them with gparted since it is gui [19:00] !support > sebsebseb [19:00] sebsebseb, please see my private message [19:00] and see what happens [19:00] !resetpanel | BlouBlou [19:00] BlouBlou: To reset the GNOME panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [19:00] where can I find how to do a screenshot ?

"generating a Key" what is it use for? [19:02] so checking now sdad1 [19:02] dangit, I forgot to check for previous versions in apt. Is it possible to specify the previous version of gnome for installation or is this new design in 11.04 the only version of gnome I can use?

[19:02] vish: uh? [19:02] I have changed some nvidia settings and now my graphical environment loads to the login page but after that it just sits with the busy mouse icon. Please help [19:02] Witchsong: drag and drop the folder you want to the left pane. [19:03] cordoval_, ok now you have to decide, your options are the easy route of backing up your important data and reinstalling from scratch, or the challenging/may not work/may seem to work but secretly be broken method or trying to resume the install [19:03] Witchsong: that should create a shortcut [19:03] Witchsong_: if by groups you mean folders, then drag and drop a folder of your choosing on the side panel [19:03] escott: you sold me on a [19:03] hmm, i was replying to this, IdleOne: is there a factoid yet for the new help site by the way? … i need to scrolldown fully :D [19:03] Johan2: i just generated a key for my SSH shell account! the next time that i tried to log in it asked me for a 'passphrase' and it didn't ask me for my account password!! so now what is the diffrent between it and my password? as if I just changed a new password for my account? isn't it?

[19:03] sebsebseb: thanks for the link [19:04] IdleOne: yeah, as you can see above gave that factoid to Eduard who wants the Gnome 3 install instructions [19:04] phoenixsampras: probably official support [19:04] sebsebseb: ah, cool. [19:04] Dr_Willis: it doesn't work [19:04] cordoval_, you could try. if you need to do a backup and don't have an external drive you can resize the sda1 partition and add a partition after it for your backup [19:04] IdleOne: that's something else, if there isn't a factoid yet for installing Gnome 3 from the ppa, there should be really I think :) [19:04] Dr_Willis: I tried both and nothing [19:04] !gnome3 [19:04] Gnome 3 is not currently supported on Ubuntu. A PPA for natty is available at https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3 but these packages are _experimental_, _unstable_ and may break your system. [19:04] Eduard: ^ [19:04] escott: how to see my files from here though [19:05] Servers okay now? [19:05] i can plug a usb drive [19:05] Johan2, and you added the public key to .ssh/authorized_keys on the target machine [19:05] (01:01:54 AM) Dr_Willis: how to do it? [19:05] but how to move the files if I cannot see them [19:05] oh nevermind went to places [19:05] escott: It's not I that have the problem [19:05] it is mounting now [19:05] IdleOne: last time I looked the ppa site itself, wasn't really helpful on how to install it, but someone suggested the askubuntu link for it, and that was good [19:05] thien: do what? this channel is going by so fast my history buffer is gone. [19:05] Dr_Willis: any idea of how to recover my pannels? [19:05] escott: My problem is my inability to find a goddamn way to change the settings of dash === Andre_Gondim is now known as Lucas_Laudeci [19:05] Johan2, sorry meant rimo0 [19:05] evenin all [19:05] sebsebseb: the ppa page has the instructions to install a ppa, what is missing there? [19:06] that* [19:06] BlouBlou: run gnome-panel via the apt-f2 feature perhaps.. or try that resetpanels factoid commands. [19:06] Johan2: open ccsm and click on unity [19:06] Johan2: if you find a configuration tool with more than two radio buttons, let me know [19:06] Dr_Willis: how to change permission of a partition [19:06] Hi, in Natty is there a way to disable the auto-maximize of the browser upon open when in Unity? [19:06] Dr_Willis: I tried both and nothing === Lucas_Laudeci is now known as Andre_Gondim [19:06] escott, i tried running "sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode Auto" but I get "SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument." ? [19:06] thien: you dont.. You change permissions on the FILESYSTEM on the partition. [19:06] thien: mount it. and chmod/chown the mountpoint (which will actually be chown/moding the root of the filesystem) [19:06] hypetech: the panel optiosn are in ccsm? [19:06] vish: well with beta 2, there was something about it, when I was there [19:06] LAcan, do you have a wlan0 [19:06] !permissions | thien [19:06] thien: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [19:07] escott, yes [19:07] hypetech: or does that not include menu item customization? I can't seem to add launchers to it. Pretty sure I"m just doing it wrong. [19:07] Dr_Willis: I'll try a thing [19:07] LAcan, not sure... could be a driver issue [19:07] * sebsebseb thinks the channel number right now is a bit disapointing not 2000 or so, oh well :D [19:07] nastjuid: yes [19:07] where do I add entries for the name resolution of other computers on my network? In my hosts file? [19:07] escott, is there a way I can just restart it and let ubuntu do the config as if it was a rebbot/logout ? [19:07] or will samba auto add this for me? [19:07] nastjuid: to add a launcher, just open the program, then when it shows up right click on it in the dock and click add launcher [19:07] sebsebseb: thats a GOOD sign, less problems requiring support ;p [19:08] hypetech: ah ha! thanks [19:08] hello [19:08] Does anyone know if there's any way to turn off the "Apps for Download" list thingy? [19:08] i hope i'm wrong but to me it seems that natty ships with a stone-age lirc (0.8.7) that is NOT compatible with nattys lirc kernel drivers? [19:08] DarkStar1: i dont think samba will auto do that. [19:08] does anyone know the modes for an intel 345ABGN ? [19:08] LAcan, you could see if there is a service that manages the network. you could even restart the network service, or unload/reload the modules [19:08] hello. How can I enable unity after installing display drivers ? [19:08] i don't understand why lightt doesn start i do /etc/init.d/lighttpd start but nothing happen.... no process running, what can i do? [19:08] HyperShock: With groups I meant the Personal, Devices etc. [19:08] i don't understand why lighttpd doesn start i do /etc/init.d/lighttpd start but nothing happen.... no process running, what can i do? [19:09] damiano__: it's a script, look at it and see what it's doing [19:09] damiano__: try the service command perhaops? perhaps you need a sudo in there also.. [19:09] damiano__: this is likely unrelated but it is a good idea to use "service", not /etc/init.d [19:09] damiano__: sudo service lighttpd start ? [19:09] i don't understand 5 minutes ago it was running [19:09] one moment [19:09] sburjan`: once the drivers are installed, Unity should be selected by itself, if not , select it from the login screen. [19:09] I would like wubi to install ubuntu 11.04 and not 10.04. I have already tried to run and install wubi with 10.04 but it failed; are there any files I have to cleanup first? [19:10] sburjan`, finally you can try unity --replace [19:10] damiano__: also check if something is written to the logs [19:10] * Starting web server lighttpd [ OK ] [19:10] ubuntu netbook 10.04 I mean [19:10] but there aren't process [19:10] proq, I think wubi is not quite ready for 11.04 [19:10] no lighttpd process running [19:10] damiano__: check for zombie processes... killall lighthttps, then 'service start lighthttpd' [19:10] if I use apt-get -d install package, that will download the package but not install it right ? [19:10] damiano__: what happens when you try to browse to it? [19:10] !lirc [19:10] yes i done killall [19:10] damiano__: check its logs - check its configs to be sure it is logging. :) [19:10] "no process" [19:10] no lirc for you [19:10] is there a way to remove the "Workspace Switcher" button on the Unity launcher menu? [19:11] damiano__, check your /var/log as well perhaps it is closing immediately because of misconfiguration [19:11] rach0: Now it is stuck as measuring battery [19:11] hypetech what you mean with "browser" ? [19:11] McShane: right click on it [19:11] McShane: nope [19:11] McShane: nvm [19:11] damiano__: checked logs? [19:11] Anyone's Natty stuck at that battery command on start up?

[19:15] HELP!! i just generated a key for my SSH shell account! the next time that i tried to log in it asked me for a 'passphrase' and it didn't ask me for my account password!! so now what is the diffrent between it and my password? as if I just changed a new password for my account? isn't it? "generating a Key" what is it use for? [19:16] rimo0, you need to put your pub key in the auth_keys file on the target machine, and enable auth_keys login in sshd_config on target machine [19:16] sebsebseb, ok bro unity works with the experimental driver but the screen contrast and colour are not as crisp if i use the regular nvidia driver. do you know how to fix it? thanks [19:16] johnjaylward: the OMGubuntu blog site has a list of them. [19:16] jan_: I already have compiz installed === Spkes is now known as Spikes [19:16] I just updated to 11.04, but when i login i can move for a few secs then everything just freezes. Any ideas? :) [19:16] johnjaylward: you can use python-appindicator to write one if it is something simple, https://launchpad.net/indicator-sysmonitor is a good reference, only about 100 lines of code [19:16] frankS2: Strange. [19:16] how to disable compiz by terminal? [19:16] Hedgehog456: i even rm -rf .gnome* and .gconf* so it should be clean [19:16] BlouBlou: try 'metacity --replace' [19:16] escott: I have nothing in the login screen. I can only shut down computer, restart, etc ... [19:16] rimo0, it may also be that your local keyring is asking for the password to your keyring [19:17] sburjan`, huh? [19:17] escott: i did that but i just wanted to know that what is the different about the a pub key and password? [19:17] !torrent [19:17] Torrent clients: Transmission (GTK and terminal-based), Deluge-Torrent, Freeloader, BitStormLite, BitTornado-GUI (GTK), KTorrent (KDE), QTorrent (Qt), Azureus (Java), TorrentFlux (web-based), bittornado, rTorrent, cTorrent, bittorrent, aria2 (terminal-based) - FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html - See also !P2P [19:17] Dr_Willis: it doesn't work, it says 'unable to open x display' [19:17] how do I fetch the packages from the repos without installing them ? [19:18] rimo0, properly configured you can use ssh -i key.pub and not have to worry about passwords [19:18] escott: unity --replace doesn not work. I get a "Cannotregister panel shell: there is already one running." But my theme is like windows 95 [19:18] anyone know how to manually edit gconfs on a Live CD? For booting purposes only, this CD, not install. [19:18] johnjaylward: look here: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/01/the-omg-guide-to-must-have-indicator-applets/ [19:18] Armageddon: apt-get --download-only install [19:18] can anyone tell me what version of rubygems comes with the new 11.04? or, tell me how to check that myself (before upgrading of course) [19:18] anyone knows how to disable compiz from a terminal, or how to prevent openning it automatically in ubuntu-session-start? from a tty if possible please, because I can't open an x session [19:18] Armageddon: man apt-get [19:18] hello someone can listen me about a problem installing natty on raid 0 ? [19:18] kwtm, same as apt-get -d install ? [19:18] hello guys, I've decided to install 11.04 over my opensuse install, keeping my home partition, but ubuntu installer doesn't recognize logical volumes and treats it as a one big partition [19:18] rimo0, so the server has a private key which it can use to authenticate any client who has the matching public key [19:18] Armageddon: Yes, -d is short for --download-only, but if I say "-d" then they'll say "what does -d stand for?" [19:19] kwtm, I did man it, but the output was unclear saying it needs [19:19] I can't reach my linux partitions from live session too [19:19] thanks McShane , I found that just now [19:19] so how can I change the shortcuts found in the dash on unity? [19:19] how do you add more workspaces in unity? [19:19] how can I do it? [19:19] anyone knows how to disable compiz from a terminal, or how to prevent openning it automatically in ubuntu-session-start? from a tty if possible please, because I can't open an x session [19:19] kwtm, the output still says it needs etc amount of space after installation, so I wanted to make sure [19:19] sburjan`, you don't have a panel anywhere? [19:19] hello guys [19:19] escott: so what should i use that when i have got a secure password? i can't underestand!! [19:19] back again [19:20] anyone know how to restore the panel on 11.04? [19:20] Wickedspawn: CCSM, General Settings, look for vertical and horizontal desktop size (IIRC) [19:20] Elssha: I have the same problem [19:20] Armageddon: It assumes that you will manually install, so it will still tell you how much space it takes when you manually install. [19:20] rimo0, because ssh key is thousands of characters, passphrase is 8 [19:20] kwtm, see, now it's clearer :) thanks [19:20] Hello, how do I make a bootable USB in Ubuntu [19:20] escott: Interface looks exactly like the previous ubuntu. It has a windows 95 feeling also [19:20] I'm currently running ubuntu 10.04 lts. do-release-upgrade says nothings available? [19:20] bloublou; i doubt it.. i killed it by activating desktop cube in compiz [19:20] @Adis: look for Unetbootin [19:20] Adis45: Follow the instructions @ http://ubuntu.com/download [19:20] Ziber: 1) LTS only show other LTS by default and 12.04 isnt out yet. you can change this in software sources 2) you cant go from 10.04 to 11.04 directly [19:21] sburjan`, did you get a message about your graphics hardware not being powerful enough (this is 11.04 right? [19:21] Are there md5 hashes posted somewhere for 11.04? [19:21] hedele: You need to mount the volume on your live session. From a terminal, you'd type a command *similar to* (don't quote me exactly) "sudo mount /dev/sda2 /path/to/mount/point" or something similar. Or there may be a way to do it with GUI, but I am not familiar with that. [19:21] No, I need to make a bootable Windows installation USB [19:21] maco: I want 10.10, how can I upgrade to that? [19:21] escott: all I have in the login screen is Universal Access Preferences [19:21] Ziber: see #1 in what i said [19:21] Adis: you want to boot Windows from a USB? [19:21] also, my emerald won't work -_-; I'm stuck with no window boarders (close button, etc) [19:21] kwtm: oh thanks didn't know that I should mount it manually, thanks [19:22] Ziber: change the update settings in the software sources config thing [19:22] sburjan`, confused... now you are at the login screen? [19:22] alright... [19:22] hedele: Come to think of it, there may be a more user-friendly way to do it, but I'm just letting you know that it is possible. [19:22] sirgad: Yes [19:22] suburjan; you type in your user name, click okay then at the bottom it will show up [19:22] escott: I logged off :) [19:22] mikebot: http://releases.ubuntu.com/11.04/MD5SUMS [19:22] threw me for a loop as well [19:22] Adis45: Ask in ##windows [19:22] so, anyone know how to restore panel? [19:22] ok [19:22] Adis45: so far as I'm aware, Windows doesn't allow that - that's what I've been told myself. I don't think it's possible in Win 7 either [19:23] and how to get emerald to come back >_> [19:23] hello, can anyone tell me how to separate home partition becauze for now i had everythink in one partition [19:23] Elssha: yes. I have selected Ubuntu. What should I select in order to enable Unity ? [19:23] sirgad, it is possible... not that i know how [19:23] !home | zeeegis [19:23] zeeegis: Why do you want a separate /home/? You don't need one to re-install preserving /home/. [19:23] zeeegis: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome [19:23] In the alternate downloads -> bit torrent download section, there are two 10.04.2 Desktop i386 links, but no 10.04.2 x86_64 desktop link [19:24] trism: THank you [19:24] that idk; was just telling you that the options don't pop up until you type in your usr name [19:24] sry [19:24] how do you upgrade from alpha ? update-manager -d ? [19:24] !final | OchoZero9 [19:24] OchoZero9: If you install a development version of Ubuntu Natty and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 11.04 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [19:24] !floodbot | nandinux [19:24] nandinux: FloodBot1,2,3, and 4 are all bots, please direct your questions to the channel. [19:24] anyone know if there's a way to *down*grade from 11 to 10? [19:24] I noticed that bununtu 11.04 is not displaying top menu of a number of apps, anyone else having that problem? [19:25] Elssha, no [19:25] too bad [19:25] if I started upgrading to 11.04 but I have no time, can I cancel it and continue later ? (its on "Getting new packages" its not on "Installing the upgrades") [19:25] thanks Jordan_U [19:25] destinydriven: Move your mouse to the top of the screen and you will see the menu bar. [19:25] destinydriven, they are supposed to appear in the panel on top, some are a little finicky [19:25] Elssha: I typed, now I have several options. Ubuntu is the selected one and I still got windows 85 :) [19:25] I already have RAID set up from a previous installation, but it thinks /dev/md0 and /dev/md1 are entire devices, not just partitions [19:25] karlo: Yes. [19:25] karlo: But not if it starts installing them. [19:25] OchoZero9: You're welcome. [19:25] Elssha: format + reinstall ? [19:25] escott, modes is "Managed" on an intel [19:25] escott: this works with some but not others [19:25] sburjan`: 85 ?? huh [19:25] was hoping to keep all my other mods neckoox >_< [19:26] Aptana 3 (release) is one example [19:26] Pici, ok, tnx ..its still on downloading [19:26] 85, 95, you get the picture [19:26] so no way to return the panel? [19:26] destinydriven, there is plugin for firefox check synaptic for unity firefox something [19:26] :/ elssha [19:26] sburjan yeah =) [19:26] destinydriven, its like unity integration or some such [19:26] I'm gonna reinstall [19:26] what's the story with 11.04? I heard talk of crashing with betas... is that what people are seeing with the release version? [19:26] jdahm, that seems normal [19:26] l [19:26] escott: ok thanks, but why firefox, I have no problems with ff [19:26] ... and here i was happy i got to go to 11.04 without having to redo all the settings [19:27] * LAcan nods at alienware [19:27] trying to work out if I like this unity thing...but we're running with full speed and stability at the moment CaneToad [19:27] :D [19:27] cane; mine worked fine until i wanted the stupid cube back -_-; [19:27] destinydriven, is it openoffice? its usually one of those two. sometimes it also gets confused if i alt-tab too much [19:27] escott: Aptana Studio 3 [19:27] escott: hmm it seems like if I manually format the device with mkfs.ext4 /dev/md0 it lets me use it as a "partition" [19:27] weird [19:27] elssha : you talking about compiz ? [19:27] So, anyone try to run ccsm in unity? [19:27] Elssha, just install ccsm... [19:28] what's that? [19:28] ccsm? [19:28] is it really so that natty ships with a stone-age lirc (0.8.7) that is NOT compatible with nattys lirc kernel drivers? [19:28] jdahm, yeah they are logical devices so that seems normal [19:28] I just updated to 11.04, but when i login i can move for a few secs then everything just freezes. Any ideas? :) Also i can't access to grub by pressing esc :/ [19:28] jdahm, the installer may not be familiar with them [19:28] CompizConfig Settings Manager [19:28] escott: what if I want it to just use the entire device without repartitioning it? [19:28] destinydriven, you download apatana from outside [19:28] lugkhast: so it is that complicated.... Unity is going to take some getting used to.. heh. Thanks. [19:28] escott: I did [19:29] !info lirc natty [19:29] lirc (source: lirc): infra-red remote control support. In component main, is extra. Version 0.8.7-0ubuntu4 (natty), package size 532 kB, installed size 2652 kB [19:29] escott: I guess I'll just do it my manual way. Seems hacky however. In any case I have to wait for mdadm to sync these drives in /dev/md1 [19:29] Hey guys... I'm upgrading from 10.04 all the way up to 11.04... Am I going to run into issues or should it be really easy? (besides all the medibuntu stuff lol) [19:29] does anyone know how to install vistualbox on backtrack [19:29] vega: yep [19:29] escott: should I reinstall it on 11.04. I had it from 10.10 [19:29] im trying to download a torrent but it sasy the filename is too long... anyone know the option in Transmission or another fix? [19:29] Monotoko: is unty just a new default option... like can you use gnome if you want to? [19:29] neckoox; yes... I upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04 ... in CCSM i tried to enable cube again, gave me an error but (stupidly, i know) I figured it was one of the ever-present 'the shortcut for X is same as shortcut for Y' things and okayed it [19:29] jdahm, you could install in degraded mode and then fix it up after, but thats not the best approach [19:29] !backtrack | alienware [19:29] alienware: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux), Ultimate Edition [19:29] destinydriven, don't know if that would make a difference because it is outside apt [19:29] next thing i know, no panel up top, no window boarders [19:29] escott: what is degraded mode? [19:29] wow, 11.04 has iphone support, badass [19:30] how come its now LibreOffice...? [19:30] what can it do with the iphone [19:30] I assume thats openoffice? [19:30] so now no cube and no panel [19:30] multipass: really ? [19:30] trism: The torrent from the website doesn't match that....? [19:30] i have a notebook with 10.10 installed and work ok [19:30] escott: hmm ok, guess I will have to use another ide for now [19:30] jdahm, ie disable mdadm, install to /dev/sda# and then rebuild afterwards [19:30] multipass: which OS ? [19:30] Hello all. For my sins, I'm trying to set up an IPSec VPN on an Ubuntu 10.10 Server machine. I'm using OpenSWAN (+ NETKEY, just the default setup). [19:30] Wickedspawn: simple-ccsm might work too, but I haven't tried [19:30] when it will be possible to upgrade ubuntu to 11.04 [19:30] Monotoko: because Free means two things, and libre means one [19:30] ? [19:30] now i try to install 11.04 and not work [19:30] LAcan; if that's compiz settings manager i have it; it's how I screwed up the install in the first places [19:30] escott: oh, eww, nah I'll do it this way. Thanks for the tip anyway [19:30] neckoox, yeah.. i had direct access to the root of it, access to the 3rd part apps, and access to the music.. amazing [19:30] place* [19:30] destinydriven, the real question is how to get unity to NOT take over the menu [19:30] hi, i cannot boot into ubuntu 10.10 after installing ubuntu 11.04. Does anyone know how to fix it? http://paste.ubuntu.com/600388/ [19:30] <[lan3y]> so once i done all the updates im on 11.04 right? [19:30] zeeegis: as of today [19:30] Monotoko, LibreOffice is an updated OO.org [19:30] neckoox, so no longer need SSH to it [19:31] i think the problem is the raid [19:31] multipass: damn sweet ! [19:31] Monotoko: they are now Free from sun / oracle [19:31] jdahm, see if you can mount md0 and md1, maybe once they are mounted the installer will play along [19:31] escott: I'd love to know that [19:31] they are libre [19:31] sameone can help me ? [19:31] rach0: Its fixed :) [19:31] Monotoko: Libreoffice is a fork of openoffice that isn't under Oracle's control...since they initially apparently weren't willing to play friendly with it [19:31] rach0: thanks for the help [19:31] lugkhast: I tried switching to classic and changing the number of workspaces and then logging back into unity, but the change didn't carry over. Was trying to keep from installing compiz, but I guess I have to =/ [19:31] did anyone run conky in 11.04? [19:31] multipass: but can you change the music on it ? like uploading music ? [19:31] Would somebody point me to the md5 hashes of Natty ? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes hasn't been updated. [19:31] CaneToad, I see...I've been out of the game a while!! [19:31] stREaKer, glad i was of help [19:31] Elssha, whats the screwup? you are likely in conflict between your WM and compiz? [19:31] neckoox, i think so.. so far i just tried playing it though. [19:31] escott: ok I will after I get lunch. /dev/md1 is going to take about another hour to sync ;) [19:32] multipass: try try ! :P [19:32] OOo was always Free(gratis), but now they are Free(libre) [19:32] <_cory> ok i feel very out of place on 11.04... [19:32] escott: maybe I'll submit a big report about it [19:32] should i use desktop or netbook version? [19:32] LAcan; i turned on cube in CCSM and my panel (the shiny new one in 11.04) and window boarders ran away in mutiny [19:32] did anyone solve the backlight issues?? [19:32] neckoox, cant atm lol, im at work and i already wasted an hour, sry [19:32] screen is black [19:33] can anyone tell me where the settings are...? [19:33] rather screen is blank on booting in [19:33] jdahm, you might also try getting the mdadm.conf setup in your install environment see if that helps [19:33] How can I make my USB bootable [19:33] multipass: a okay . np , i will probably test myself next week [19:33] what's the command line to open CCSM? [19:33] ccsm [19:33] Elssha, ccsm [19:33] Everytime I boot up my ubuntu I see "Resume:Libcrypt 1.4.5" is it natural? [19:33] neckoox, it works on live usb/cd, so done even need to instlal [19:33] <_cory> is there a way to move this sidebar thing to the bottom? [19:33] n/m [19:33] compizconfig-settings-manager [19:33] So first I'm trying to set up a basic IPSec connection for test purposes, roughly following the instructions in the OpenSWAN book ( http://www.packtpub.com/openswan/book ). [19:33] escott: I know. I'm goign to need to chroot when I'm done installing and make sure everything is go inside the install [19:33] Elssha, than you can reset those properties THROUGH compiz ccsm [19:33] escott: it's not goign to be nice [19:33] Should I use Desktop or Netbook an a two point multitouch screen with Pressure sensitive pen input i7? [19:34] hi! just updated from 10.10 to 11.04... during install i had a crash. then i finished using shell. now my install is sometimes freezing and nautilus doesn't work anymore (just doesn't start). any suggestions? === Guest23776 is now known as issyl0 === Kick is now known as Guest49174 [19:34] michaelschmid, sounds like a reinstall job === Guest49174 is now known as Kick- [19:34] sure? [19:34] michaelschmid, i agree with Monotoko [19:34] multipass: yup , i won't install it yet , since fresh dist. are known to be buggy . [19:34] The book suggests that an RSA key should be automatically generated during openswan installation, except on Gentoo where the install is half-broken. [19:35] /away lunch [19:35] michaelschmid, unless you can identify the library that was installing when it crashed [19:35] michaelschmid, I mean reinstall your operating system clean [19:35] oops [19:35] okay, what's this unity shell thing? [19:35] OchoZero9, I'd guess the Netbook edition would be better for a tablet (assume that's what you mean). [19:35] wubi on windows 7 is only allowing me 30GB to install ubuntu, but I have 119GB free. how do I give it 80GB? [19:35] Anyone here having an issue with the Natty upgrade? [19:35] So, I get to the login screen and I click on my username. Sometimes it wont show the password entry form at all, and sometimes it does but wont let me type ...

[19:38] Psychobudgie, ah...I see [19:38] jenkins: http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/MD5SUMS [19:38] <_cory> why does 11.04 seem so dumbed down?

[19:38] Thing is, it seems that no RSA key has been generated during openswan installation on Ubuntu 10.10 either. /etc/ipsec.secrets contains the lineinclude /var/lib/openswan/ipsec.secrets.inc [19:38] OchoZero9: For Ubuntu 10, the only major difference between the Desktop and Netbook editions is the interface. === duke3d is now known as fslima0 [19:38] hi [19:38] jbwiv, you see what I did there [19:38] hi.

[19:39] Psychobudgie, and i've been thinking that was a graphical artifact [19:39] Hey, is 11.04 released yet? update-notifier doesn't report 11.04 is available, only 10.10. :-/ [19:39] When I get to the login screen (and it takes a while to get there...), it sometimes wont let me type my password anywhere. Other times, it shows the password textbox, but wont let me type. Any ideas? [19:39] escott, someone posted it as a bug earlier [19:39] !help | nandinux [19:39] nandinux: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [19:39] is there a good, consistent set of end-user docs for unity? I'd like to convert my bro-in-law [19:39] ziber, i think i had the same problem [19:39] _cory, I guess you have a different view of what seems "dumbed down" than what I have. The new interface is a lot better, though it will require time to get used to. :) [19:40] michaelschmid: Do you have a solution? [19:40] WOOT! [19:40] Do I have to update to 10.10 frist? [19:40] 0 [19:40] 11.04! [19:40] escott, We should have a bet on what actual feature of unity will be the next one to be incorrectly indentified as a bug [19:40] my window manager is crashing amid the upgrade, and it's just resizing the windows over and over. halp? [19:40] <_cory> witchsong_: Maybe u can help me figure a few things out. I want to reconfigure my monitors but I don't have a preferences or administration menu anymore. Also is tehre a way to reposition the sidebar? [19:40] I have an 18.6 GB partition that is almost full, and it hosts the operating system. I have naother 63GB partitoin that is only 60% full. How do I free up space on the OS partition? [19:40] first it was extremely slow, now it works, but sometimes it is freezing. try first to start the classic version (gnome) [19:40] (I'm basically typing into an oscillating Xchat window right now.) [19:40] ubuntu 11.04 today an ring ceremony tomorrow which means I get to leave school after it and be excused [19:40] And then, when I attempt to create an RSA key using sudo ipsec newhostkey (the method recommended for Gentoo installs by the openswan book) nothing happens. [19:40] srsbiz: Yes. If you're running 10.04, you'll need to upgrade to 10.10 first, then to 11.04 [19:40] michaelschmid: ...How? [19:40] _cory: The preferences are in the "shut down" menu now. [19:41] ziber, but i don't really have a solutino [19:41] OchoZero9, gparted will allow you to resize/move === ubuntu is now known as tomasz [19:41] when will ubuntu11.04 released ?? [19:41] <_cory> witchsong_ ah ha! thx [19:41] ziber, try to login using gnome (classic) [19:41] DASSSAD, it's out [19:41] OchoZero9, as with any partition changes make backups [19:41] Pici: is 11.04 LTS btw? I was kind-of confused by teh lack of "LTS" on the download site [19:41] The rsasigkey process just seems to stall, using 0 processor and memory (according to top). [19:41] DASSSAD: it's out [19:41] is 11.04 LTS ? [19:41] srsbiz: It's not [19:41] michaelschmid: How do I select that option? [19:41] why in a notebook with raid-0 perfectly run 10.10 i can't install 11.04 [19:41] hi. Im having some problems with wifi after a clean install of 11.04. STA driver takes out wireless networks on the network applet. any ideas? [19:41] srsbiz, 11.10 is the next lts [19:41] DASSSAD, there isn't an 11.04 LTS [19:41] ziber, did upgrade to through without crash/error? [19:41] I've just upgraded to 11.04 and am now using unity. How do I set the default screen in a 2-monitor setup? The vertical menu bar is appearing on the left side of the right screen (i.e. in the middle of the two monitors) [19:41] Psychobudgie: No. === brianl is now known as brianl|a [19:42] Oh my gawd. Nevermind me. Not upgrading lol. [19:42] srsbiz: o+1 aka 12.04 is LTS [19:42] michaelschmid: Hm? [19:42] theintrepid1: rmmod the device then modprobe it [19:42] Hello [19:42] Psychobudgie, hard to say i feel like im over the hump and its starting to all seem normal. perhaps the workspace switcher not closing when you click on a workspace [19:42] ziber, click onto your user and then at the bottom you can choose [19:42] michaelschmid: hm, alright [19:42] I've hidden my bottom panels, but now I don't know how to set "always show" [19:42] Help? [19:42] thanks escott, but I think 18gb is excessive how do I know what I have there that's un necessary? [19:42] If anyone is having a slow download the torrents are lightning fast [19:42] Hi, i have just installed ubuntu 11.04, but i can no longer boot into my ubuntu 10.10 installation. Anyone know how to add ubuntu 10.10 to grub again? http://paste.ubuntu.com/600388/ [19:43] Leo, will any rsa key work? could you generate with gpg or ssh [19:43] It was a nice ride. Thanks to all at #ubuntu* [19:44] cws: According to that, it does seem to be added... [19:44] OchoZero9, you could uninstall stuff you don't need or remove stuff like old kernels 18gb is high but if you installed a lot of stuff [19:44] man the mirrors are bogged down [19:44] im getting 15.6K [19:44] how to force nautilus reinstall? (on shell) [19:44] is there a way to see what's taking what space? [19:45] cws: What does your grub.cfg look like? [19:45] BitOperator: Use torrents if possible. [19:45] should i upgrade to the new ubuntu? [19:45] michaelschmid, apt-get --reinstall install nautilus [19:45] eoss: Your decision. [19:45] Yeah, I'll just wait it out. I've already got it installed was just looking to download final release ISO for archive [19:45] rcmaehl: please don't CTCP the channel like that. [19:46] arand, i'll paste it in 1 sec [19:46] bye bye [19:46] rcmaehl: or send notices. [19:46] is 10.10 still gonna get upgrades and what not? [19:46] ok [19:46] sorry [19:46] metacity --replace [19:46] rcmaehl: I've already filed a bug against the website for that. There is no netbook edition anymore. [19:46] escott, thanks! [19:46] Pici: what? [19:46] eoss: For 18months paste relese I think. [19:46] WHAT!? [19:47] is 11.04 LTS? [19:47] michaelschmid: No [19:47] rcmaehl: The "desktop" edition now uses Unity, which was the netbook shell. [19:47] rcmaehl: netbook and desktop have been merged, both use unity now. [19:47] :( [19:47] hey iam using ubuntu server 10.10 and need some assistance on troubleshooting my mail server it has suddenly stopped sending and recieving mail [19:47] arand, here is my grub.cfg http://paste.ubuntu.com/600395/ [19:48] ublunt: #ubuntu-server might be a better place to ask, #ubuntu is rather busy today due to the release. [19:48] Fetching the updates fail because the server http://ubuntu.mirror.cambrium.nl return forbidden 403. Where can i get a other mirror? [19:48] thanks [19:48] hmmm.... nautilus won't start after reinstall.... any suggestions? :-) [19:48] hello [19:48] cws: Do you have any kernels in Ubuntu 10.10's /boot/ ? [19:49] I'm trying to find out the md5 sum for the dvd image of the Ubuntu 11.04 [19:49] any idea on where can I find it ? [19:49] I've had to kill compiz during the upgrade, it was stuck in a loop -- now how do I start metacity to gain access to my windows again? [19:49] upgraded to 11.04 and now I get a black screen at boot (under recovery mode I see a bit of scrolling text, then black); ATI Mobility HD3470 === ubuntu is now known as tomasz [19:49] my installation of 11.04 has hung at "could not find module nvidia_current" after all them painfully slow updates :p [19:49] I have just downloaded ubuntu desktop iso. I created a bootable USB with it. However, when booting it, I get error: ubentry1: file not found [19:49] Jordan_U, no [19:49] escott: Probably, though I'm not sure what key length etc. I need. Apparently I can also just try using a PSK password rather than an RSA key. But I was hoping I would be able to get a basic ipsec connection up as a test before I had to start worrying about crypto settings. :( [19:49] giulia: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/natty/release/MD5SUMS [19:49] How do I fix this? [19:49] Is there a way to easily organise the items in the Unity launcher? (I'm using 2D, if that makes a difference) [19:50] thanks :) [19:50] traskers: click and hold on the icons, they will float. move at will :-) [19:50] cws: If there are no kernels then there will be no menu entries. Do you know why your Ubuntu 10.10 install has no kernels in its /boot/? [19:50] Leo, yeah i don't know ipsec or why that would hang [19:50] nutsfornatty, ah, okay, thank you very much! [19:50] Hi.. [19:50] system doesn't appear to respond to any keyboard shortcuts (that I know of) [19:50] Jordan_U, I had my /boot on another patition [19:50] ceninan, i had the same (or quite similar)... after trying a bit i found out, that it worked with classic view... but now my installation is boggous and natulis won't work [19:51] vandamsel: right yeah ok [19:51] vandamsel: if you look in additioanl drivers, does it say the driver is installed and activiated or what? [19:51] the propritary driver [19:51] michaelschmid, classic view? [19:51] Hello. I've just updated to ubuntu 11.04. But the menus of firefox and thunderbird aren't displayed in the indicator-appmenu. I think it's related to the bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/firefox/+bug/637827, which has been marked as fixed. Neither removing thunderbird-globalmenu nor reinstalling it helped. Any hint? [19:51] I'm using ubuntu 10.10 and i have a issue with sounds.. [19:51] Ubuntu bug 637827 in firefox (Ubuntu Natty) "FFE: Firefox and Thunderbird (XUL) menus don't appear in the global menu bar" [High,Fix released] [19:51] cws: Does that partition still exist? Are you still using it as the /boot/ for Ubuntu 10.10? [19:51] on login [19:51] What should the md5sum of the desktop iso be? [19:51] I can't login [19:51] you use gnome instead of unity [19:51] !md5sum | tdn [19:51] tdn: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [19:51] 8b1085bed498b82ef1485ef19074c281?

[19:51] !hashes | tdn [19:51] the system locks before I can interact with it [19:51] ceninan, you don't even have login? [19:52] nope [19:52] Jordan_U, no i installed the new /boot onto that patition... Was that wrong? [19:52] :-( [19:52] cws: Unity? [19:52] tdn: compare against the hash on the above link [19:52] cws: Yes. [19:52] sebsebseb, Yes i use Unity.. Why? [19:52] sebsebseb, what page does not have the hashes for 11.04 [19:52] sebsebseb: ah speak of the devil. its started working after hanging there >1 hour [19:52] cws: Why do you have a separate /boot/ partition in the first place? [19:52] maybe you can do something over ssh? from another machine? === meisth0th_zzz is now known as meisth0th [19:52] IdleOne, unfortuneately not :( [19:52] cws: ok I think I know why [19:53] tdn: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes this one [19:53] vandamsel: right, but I think you got a issue with teh propritary driver? [19:53] michaelschmid, perhaps; may as well salvage the pieces and reinstall if there is no known/easy solution [19:53] Jordan_U, because i thought that it was the way to do it :-( [19:53] vandamsel: Unity was froozen? like cws [19:53] IdleOne, I know, it only has old hashes. [19:53] tdn: hmm you are right. [19:53] IdleOne, not the new ones. [19:53] error message gives when i click "sounds " from preferences saying that "waiting for sound system to respond" and i can't open system sounds control center...how to resolve this problem..can some one help me [19:53] tdn: let me search a little [19:53] hello [19:53] the new ati driver is working nicely for me (full unity, lower system temps) [19:53] anyone have trouble with icons not showing up in the launcher? neither gvim nor tasque have icons when i open them [19:53] sebsebseb, my Unity works fine [19:54] ops, may I ask a somewhat offtopic question? [19:54] cws: Separate /boot partitions are only needed in specific circumstances. [19:54] sebsebseb: its just booting for the first time now. ill install the additional drivers and see if i have any issues :) [19:54] rcmaehl, just ask [19:54] !ot | rcmaehl [19:54] rcmaehl: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [19:54] i think some apps dont have launcher icons yet? [19:54] for some reason, the upgrade to 11.04 just stopped downloading and i had to redo it! [19:54] vandamsel: uhmm was Unity froozen, for an hour or so on your desktop? [19:54] LAcan_: No, We have less busy channels for that, [19:54] tdn: http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/CDs-Ubuntu/11.04/MD5SUMS [19:54] escott: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1441977 suggests it might be due to to a lack of randomness. But I've logged in to the console of the server and hammered on tetris for a few minutes, and still the thing doesn't seem to make any progress. So either the 10.10 openswan package is bugged or I don'k know enoguh about keeping /dev/random full. [19:55] Pici, but like.. how do we even know its actually offtopic? [19:55] Jordan_U: ok, do you know if i can recover my ubuntu 10.10 system? [19:55] anyone else has the problem that some windows turn white? [19:55] cws: You can. [19:55] IdleOne, it seems right. [19:55] LAcan: by his stating it was [19:55] anyone know how to put the launcher bar at the bottom on Natty? [19:55] Anyone else has a problem with xhci_hcd timeout and mouse / keyboard stop working with the natty kernel? [19:55] Leo, if its a really big key it might require a lot of randomness, and if the server is misconfigured in some way it may not be accepting enough sources of entropy [19:55] IdleOne, when I boot it from a USB it gives me the error: ubnentry1: file not found [19:55] It's a question about if people want to play a game while updating to 11.04 [19:55] sebsebseb: the actual installation hung on the same output for over an hour, nothing appeared to be downloading so i dunno why it took so long. [19:55] What to do? [19:55] cws: Chroot into your install, remove the /boot/ partition from /etc/fstab, and re-install your kernel packages. [19:55] eiriksvin, laucher cannot be moved atm, yes i know that sucks a bit [19:56] LAcan_: Because he said it was an offtopic question. [19:56] Hi escott, hows going your day? [19:56] Leo, cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail [19:56] vandamsel: oh ok, not Unity being froozen then [19:56] hey is it taking anyone else like 9 hours for updates to download? [19:56] werever, good you? === LAcan_ is now known as Lacan [19:56] syntheticLife: sounds like the repos are slow since it's release day [19:56] !slow | syntheticLife [19:56] syntheticLife: The Ubuntu repositories and ISO mirrors are currently under heavy load. Please consider using !torrents to download ISO images, and be patient with APT updates. Also, try changing !mirrors [19:56] servers getting hammered [19:56] i use ubuntu 10.10...error message gives when i click "sounds " from preferences saying that "waiting for sound system to respond" and i can't open system sounds control center...how to resolve this problem..can some one help me [19:56] nice, now working only with linux and all is ok [19:56] tdn: make a new USB install. [19:56] syntheticlife:yea but mine said "1 Day and 14 hrs. remaining"! [19:56] escott: seems likely.

Please consider using !torrents to download ISO images, and be patient with APT updates. Also, try changing !mirrors [19:56] IdleOne, I just did. Same thing. [19:57] IdleOne, I have verified that the md5sum is correct. [19:57] tdn: not sure how to help you sorry. [19:57] if i torrent can i still do upgrade instead of a new install? [19:57] i waited 9minutes for a 1mb file. thats release day for you [19:57] escott: sudo cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail gives me 135 [19:57] syntheticLife: no you don't upgrade using a torrent, you can get the ISO from a torrent [19:57] tdn: someone else might know. state your issue again. [19:57] sebsebseb: what does that mean [19:57] syntheticLife, you need to download the alternative ISO [19:57] burn it or mount it [19:57] Jordan_U: isn't there a simpler way? With a ubuntu 10.10 live cd for example? [19:57] coolman: what does what mean? [19:57] and upgrade from that [19:57] torrent iso -> burn iso to DVD or usb key -> install as either upgrade or clean install [19:58] nutsfornatty> yeah they give a bunch of options with that downloadable plugin, but why wouldnt they just give an option of where to put that monstrosity [19:58] it'll ask you to download updates while upgrading [19:58] the !slow thing [19:58] don't do that, they're 900 MBytes in size [19:58] finally got my iso downloaded (via torrent on my slow dsl), going to re-install have fun you people with slow upgrades. ;) [19:58] syntheticLife: and with 11.04 you can upgrade your 10.10 install to 11.04 it seems using the ISO [19:58] :-) [19:58] escott, nice, now working only with linux and all is ok, I am trying to update my 10.10 to 11.04 but update manager ask me to insert 10.10 into a cdrom ¿is mandatory this step?, I have 10.10 only in a flash memory, I dont burn cds never [19:58] okay thanks sebsebseb [19:58] syntheticLife: well CD I should say once you got the contents of the ISO burnt to it === clone`KillaloT is now known as KillaloT [19:58] escott: The openswan book suggests that OpenSWAN does a 2192-bit RSA key by default. [19:58] Leo, lol now you have to figure out what units that is [19:59] werever, shouldn't be. its not the best day to do it... the servers are being hammered [19:59] When I boot the 11.04 iso from a USB it gives me the error: ubnentry1: file not found. How do I fix this? I have verified that the md5sum is correct. [19:59] eiriksvin, do trust. we had a big conversation about the lack of unity customization atm. im sure someone will create a way to move the launcher within a month (hacked or official) [19:59] coolman: on releae day, many Ubuntu fans download the new release, as a result, the servers tend to get slow, be that for the ISO's, or the repos/resporitories for Ubuntu [19:59] escott, I understand [19:59] durn, was waiting till my exams were done to install, now i have to wait longer! [19:59] tdn, #Ubuntu+1 is probably better for that question. [20:00] tdn: jo-erlend #ubuntu+1 is closed for now, this is 11.04 now as well [20:00] jo-erlend: nope this is the correct channe; [20:00] jo-erlend, +1 is closed now [20:00] oh. Sorry. [20:00] channel* [20:00] sebsebseb: it just came out TODAY?!?!? [20:00] coolman: yes [20:00] oh! It's release day :) [20:00] coolman: 11.04 got released earlier today [20:00] I'm moving house so I had completely forgotten! That's a first... [20:00] yeah, about 9 hours ago [20:00] error message gives when i click "sounds " from preferences saying that "waiting for sound system to respond" and i can't open system sounds control center...how to resolve this problem..can some one help me [20:00] if you want new ubuntu quickest, always preload the beta then do the system updates to final release. too late now for that strategy to work though haha [20:01] sebsebseb: wow. i thought it came out on the 4th! [20:01] aravinda: tried rebooting? [20:01] jo-erlend, 11.04 is released now. [20:01] coolman: no, but Gnome 3 came out on the 6th of April :) [20:01] yea I know but the alpha was available, didnt want to get distracted by it [20:01] done verything [20:01] jo-erlend: that happened to me with the last release, I didn't even find out till a week after! :) [20:01] aravinda: could be a pulse audio issue hanging in another session [20:01] i mean general stuff [20:01] aravinda: pulseaudio running? [20:01] sebsebseb: thanks so much! *leaves* [20:01] !final | escott [20:01] well, how do i go to classic desktop mode until then? [20:01] escott, please see my private message [20:01] too bad Unity doesn't work on VmWare :( [20:01] i dnt know [20:01] how to check that [20:01] sburjan`: well not sure about VMware, but it can work with Virtualbox :) [20:01] shane4ubuntu, yes, I've been using it for a while, so... The release isn't that important to me. But this is offtopic. Sorry. [20:01] why? does unity use opengl? [20:02] * Greek_o_nikos upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04 [20:02] id there a way to use natty, but looking like Maveric? [20:02] eiriksvin, on the login screen. look at the bottom bar. change "ubuntu" to "ubuntu classic" and login. done [20:02] proq: for some effects, that's why it uses Compiz [20:02] proq, Unity uses Compiz. [20:02] escott, I downloaded full iso final 11.04, is possible update from this iso? [20:02] aravinda: press "alt F2" [20:02] aravinda: and type: pulseaudio & [20:02] will it do that for my profile only? [20:02] the thing to remember about Gnome 3 being released on the 6th of April is that, because different distros work differently, and because now more eyeballs will be on it, there will be some lag before distros have it as part of their stable releases :-) [20:02] aravinda: after that, retry opening the sound stuff [20:02] proq: however there's also already the Unity 2D version which you can get from a ppa, made with Qt what KDE uses, and that will probably be the default fall back for 11.10 instead of Gnome 2 with their Ubuntu specific changes [20:02] werever, if you add its package archive to your list of apt archives you should be able to use it [20:02] werever: apparently possible to update from iso [20:03] werever, the desktop cd can't be used as a local archive like the alternate cd can. It uses other techniques to install the system very quickly, but that isn't compatible with apt. [20:03] escott: A Google search seems to suggest that the unit is bits. Yes, that's what man random says too, I think. [20:03] eiriksvin, yes. i have 2 profiles 1 unity and 1 classic. the change is instant and you can easily switch back and foward [20:03] fritsch: it doesnt work [20:03] I went to download Ubuntu, but i could not figure out which iso to donwload [20:03] I'm actually surprised at how close unity 2d is to the functionality of unity 3d [20:03] sebsebseb: unity-2d is in main.. [20:03] arand: is it? hmm it was a ppa [20:03] jo-erlend: then If i want to update, I need to download alternative iso? [20:03] aravinda: try "alt F2" and afterwards: pulseaudio -d [20:03] Leo, that seems pretty low check your entropy sources [20:04] werever, or directly from the servers? [20:04] nutsfornatty: how do you switch back and forth? [20:04] sebsebseb: Must've been early in the cycle.. [20:04] I'm trying to update to 11.04 on my Eee PC 901 but it says that the upgrade will take 8 hours.... (was 11 hours about 30 minutes ago) .. I feel like the system has been running slow lately, so i think i will need a full re-install.. But how do i cancel the upgrade? [20:04] apt-get package download with and without apt-p2p is slow. Is there anything that I can do ir just wait until the rush is over? [20:04] arand: I thought it was still a ppa, but ok that's good if it's in the main repo [20:04] Leo, I have 600 [20:04] ir=or [20:04] Emasarn, if you have a PC with 2-3GB RAM, then 32bit is the best one. If you have more RAM, or expect to have more RAM in the future, you need the 64bit one. [20:04] fritsch :nop [20:04] aravinda: if this does not work, killing pulseaudio and restarting would be an idea. [20:04] so are people planning on actively working on unity while this release is in the wild? [20:04] any issues with broadcom 4311 wifi cards not being detected after updating from Maverick? Mine is not detected. [20:04] shane4ubuntu, go to the login screen. look at the bottom bar of that screen. change "ubuntu" to "ubuntu classic" and login. repeat to switch back. very easy but easily overlooked. [20:04] aravinda: run the command: pulseaudio -k [20:04] Leo, and now i have like 100 :) [20:05] Hello. I'm having serious input lag issues after upgrading, but I'm not sure which package is causing the problem, thus making it difficult to report the bug. What should I do now? [20:05] aravinda: afterwards pulseaudio -d [20:05] MrStein: probably just wait till the rush is over. :( [20:05] somethingelse: sure Canonical's team will still continue work on it for 11.10 [20:05] and retry [20:05] MrStein: check that you are access the Best Server for your area of the world [20:05] guys...if I upgrade my motherboard and CPU will ubuntu still play nicely...? [20:05] or will I need to reinstall? [20:05] Monotoko: it will [20:05] Monotoko: it should work just fine [20:05] sebsebseb, are we going to see those improvements? It's completely unusable right now [20:05] pdebruic: with p2p I access tons of servers at same time [20:05] awesome [20:05] jo-erlend: I tried but update manager ask me for cd rom of 10.10 version, i have this iso on my usb device, is mandarory insert 10.10 cdrom? [20:05] Monotoko: you do not have to reinstall, it is not windows :-) [20:05] somethingelse, sure. There are many improvements to be made. I expect that's why they wanted to introduce it in this release, so they have another normal release to polish before the next LTS cycle. [20:05] fritsch:done [20:05] somethingelse: the development versiosn of 11.10, will get the improvements to Unity yes [20:05] nutsfornatty: ahh, ok, I thought there was an even quicker way the way you had mentioned it, thanks. [20:05] I do have Windows too...will that need a reinstall? [20:05] shane4ubuntu: developmetn versions [20:05] aravinda: does not work, or does it? [20:05] KillaloT: if you going to reinstall anyway, I don't think it matters 'how' you stop it [20:05] shane4ubuntu: it's unuseable right now, how so? [20:05] pdebruic: on the other hand it is worth a try. Which tool is for the server speed check? [20:05] Monotoko: windows probably will need a reinstall/reactivation yeah [20:06] fritsch:but problem remains [20:06] >.< [20:06] jo-erlend, I have an Intel 64, but the 64 bit version seems to only be available for amd? [20:06] yeah but that depends on those servers having a good connnection and the file. Might also check that the default http server is best for you. [20:06] sebsebseb: ?? I think you got the wrong guy! :) How's it going though! [20:06] Monotoko: just try first and see what happens [20:06] shane4ubuntu: also if you find Unity unusable or whatever, give Gnoem Shell a try ;) the new interface for Gnome 3 the default proper one :) [20:06] werever, no. Look in your archive settings and maybe remove it. You do have an installed system, yes? [20:06] aravinda: sorry, no idea from here - did it ever work bevore? [20:06] this is one of those times I wish I didn't need to rely on Windows [20:06] shane4ubuntu: oh yeah I did [20:06] fritsch: its ok thanks [20:06] Emasarn: 64 bit is for both Intel and AMD (and VIA) [20:06] somethingelse: see above was messging wrong guy again [20:06] Emasarn, ah. No, forget that. It works well on both. [20:06] Emasarn, that's because AMD made the x64 standard. It will work fine with Intel chips [20:06] fritsch : it works [20:06] sebsebseb: I have already previewed unity and already plan on sticking with gnome though. :) [20:06] unity is great but you do have to change the way you think about opening/moving/organizing your desktop apps [20:06] Emasarn, it's just that Intel had some strange ideas back in the days. [20:07] Thank you all :) [20:07] sebsebseb, are they going to continue developing unity even after gnome 3 is done? It seems the two have similar goals [20:07] <[dlp]> Fuck me this place is busy. [20:07] MrStein: http://blog.hafees.com/linux/ubuntu-change-download-server-and-fix-slow-updates/ [20:07] is there anything like World Of Warcraft native to Linux? [20:07] [dlp]: filter all the channel events and its easier to read [20:07] fritsch: But when i installed skype [20:07] it went wrong [20:07] nutsfornatty, yes, you do. I got used to it very quickly though, and I'll never look back. But there are still improvements to be made. [20:07] give unity a full week of use (and make sure you know the keyboard shortcuts) and i think most people will be ok with it [20:07] Monotoko, thought WoW had a linux client [20:07] !language | [dlp] [20:07] [dlp]: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. [20:07] jo-erlend: I am not sure what do you mean with "archive settings", and yes I have ubuntu 10.10 as single OS on my lap, no partitions, no dual boot, no windows [20:07] Monotoko: nope, but you can run it using the wine program [20:07] Backspace key especially is laggy, like whole seconds between when I use it and when it decides to work [20:07] sebsebseb, just seems like a strange interface choice...I actually had to uninstall unity on a netbook last release because it was taking up all the horizontal space and causing scrollbars on all webpages [20:07] * [dlp] hangs his head in shame [20:07] escott..nope, they dropped it years ago [20:07] aravinda: is skype currently running? could block your sound device [20:07] somethingelse: they do, really Gnome Shell is the proper version since that's from upstream Gnome, but Canonical wanted to do their own interface that was originally going to be for netbooks only so yeah 10.10, but can use that on a desktop even :) and then it was decided that starting with 11.04 they would make for desktops as well, instead of going with Gnome Shell by default [20:07] !wine | Monotoko look here, [20:07] Monotoko look here,: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [20:07] werever, ok. I'm not sure why it' [20:07] no i uninstalled it [20:08] How do I get back Visual Settings tab from Appearance Properties? [20:08] acicula, I know, it doesn't run well in Wine [20:08] has anyone figured out how to get unity working in vmware [20:08] that;s why I need Windows [20:08] I cant wait to get rid of this windows instrall [20:08] how come i cannot move program window from one monitor to another ( dual display function ). i'm usting ubuntu 10.04 and i have compiz enabled [20:08] aravinda: nskype does not change any system settings concerning audio [20:08] somethingelse: upstream Gnome, and Canonical had similar, but also differnet idea's on what they wanted for an interface, so yep both [20:08] werever, why it'd ask for CD then. But you can configure which sources to use. It's in System > Administration > Software Sources. [20:08] Monotoko: WoW doesnt run in wine? it has platinum support afaik [20:08] sebsebseb: is gnome shell the same as gnome desktop? [20:08] skype also doesn't work [20:08] Monotoko: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=20549 look here [20:08] kubanc: They may be treated as different workspaces? [20:09] im almost sure WoW works in wine [20:09] has anyone figured out how to get unity working in vmware [20:09] shane4ubuntu: Gnome Shell is the new interface for Gnome 3 :) http://gnome3.org [20:09] acicula, it should have...it runs just very very slowly for me [20:09] arand, by whom? compiz ? [20:09] sebsebseb: ahh, ok [20:09] sebsebseb, so are they going to try to reconcile those? seems like a pretty strange thing to have two different versions of the same thing floating around... I'm still not sure why they didn't just pump more manhours through docky, which appears to be more stable and usable than this unity thing is [20:09] i can't remember i think i havw done something with pulseaudio [20:09] *have [20:09] Monotoko: did you install any hardware drivers using the hardware driver tool? [20:09] escott: Do you know how I can check what my sources of entropy are? man random says to use sysctl kern.random but that gets me the message "error: "kern.random" is an unknown key" [20:09] acicula, yeah...graphics drivers [20:09] Monotoko: what gpu do you have? [20:09] fritsch :that may be the reason [20:09] i miss docky, unity needs proper docky like widget imo. but no point in having TWO docks (unity + docky) at the same time [20:10] acicula, ASUS 5750 or something I think [20:10] shane4ubuntu: Unity is currenlty on top of Gnome 2 in 11.04, but will be on top of Gnome 3 for 11.10 whilst being used instead of Gnome Shell by default. and with 11.10 people should be able to install the uhmm 100% proper Gnome 3 expereince from the repo's no problem. where as with 11.04 Gnome 3 is an optional ppa, which lacks a few things [20:10] <[dlp]> I've lost my hardware graphics support. [20:10] 1GB cache memory [20:10] cost me about £60 last year [20:10] Monotoko hmm that should be able to run it just fine [20:10] kubanc: Oh, I misread the version.. Hmm, I don't know I'm afraid.. [20:10] backintime is very cool, hope i wont have to learn how to restore from it with the upgrade 99 [20:10] somethingelse, you're arguing about shells? They'll all be available in 11.10. It's not possible to provide gnome shell yet, for purely technical reasons, but we'll get there. And they'll have different strengths. [20:10] acicula, it's perfect in Windows...runs like a beast [20:10] <[dlp]> And encfs doesn't work properly (but then it never did). My hacks have been undone. [20:10] wow [20:10] its just it seems to have a problem with Wine [20:10] i must say [20:10] Hello, I'm having an issue with open windows opening at the very top of the screen and I can't grab the top bar to move the window because its off screen. Also the alt to grab isn't working. [20:10] somethingelse: look t the message I just sent shane4ubuntu as well :) [20:11] Monotoko: idk, it may require some fiddling to get it work properly, check the winehq thread/ubuntu forums, pretty sure there are a fair few wow users in the ubuntu community [20:11] great job on 11 ...if they meant to destroy anything good about the window manager [20:11] awesome job! [20:11] macross: heh [20:11] sebsebseb: right I was playing with gnome3 a little in my little spare time, but didn't get far, thanks for the info. [20:11] galamar, you don't need to. Press alt, click anywhere in the window and drag it around. :) [20:11] <[dlp]> Graphics didn't involve any hacking, so that's worrying :-s [20:11] acicula, I'l try again...it has been a year since I tried [20:11] compiz is gne wondow managing is gone [20:11] jo-erlend, I'm just wondering why this change has been forced on desktop users when it doesn't appear to have anything to do with us, are there a lot of people running ubuntu on a touchscreen device? AFAIK there isn't even a ubuntu touchscreen device in existence... [20:11] in place of a beta ubuntu app [20:11] has anyone figured out how to get unity working in vmware [20:11] macross: they didn t change the window manager [20:11] perfect [20:11] answer the question [20:11] !patience [20:11] Monotoko: I've heard WoW runs faster in Ubuntu from those of my friends who play it. [20:11] Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [20:12] Does any body know about the error messege " waiting from sound system to respond" ??? [20:12] Leo, no but typing into an ssh shell may not do anything for entropy because it doesn't generate any kernel traffic (beyond the NIC) and the NIC might be invalidated because it is outside accessible and potentially hostile [20:12] well i have no window manager now [20:12] somethingelse, there are. But what are you talking about? The classic ubuntu desktop experience is installed by default in 11.04. Just choose it from the login screen. [20:12] i can't move anything [20:12] echo2: does the metacity window manager work within vmware? [20:12] macross: Are you using Metacity or Compiz? [20:12] Starminn, may just need an upgrade for my mobo and CPU...they are lacking behind a lil bit these days [20:12] Leo, see if you can generate disk io [20:12] compiz [20:12] i was using compiz [20:12] jo-erlend: Done, I found where software sources option is, is within update manager under settings button, thanks! [20:12] somethingelse: no upstream Gnome and Canonical are moving more away more from each other, since the new interfaces, under the hood Ubuntu will still be using well the rest of Gnome. Unity is going to be the interface by default for Ubuntu, for a very long time I expect, unless loads of users don't like it or something. [20:12] compiz does [20:12] now it's gone [20:12] jo-erlend, I mentioned that alt grab is not working either. === erkan^ is now known as zippo^ [20:12] Monotoko: what do you have now? [20:12] macross: Unity uses compiz, by the way.. [20:12] i can't click on anything i was totally surprised this works [20:12] jo-erlend, I'm running the standard session right now after an hour or two of being frustrated with even the most minor modifications to the unity bar (adding new applications to it), but I'm worried that in future versions users not using unity will be shoved out the door or disregarded, I want somewhere to voice my opinion [20:12] be back after a clean install. [20:13] I gotta ask a super important question. I'm using Lucid x86_64 on my primary machine (consider it a production machine). Hard drive is encrypted with LUKS. Should I upgrade to Natty or will things possibly break? [20:13] echo2: what does not work with the unity manager in vmware? [20:13] acicula, dual core, 2.6Ghz intel 775 [20:13] unity is just terrible nothing is working [20:13] Monotoko: Well, if your processor is slow then running something like WoW is going to be *very* slow. Ask in ##hardware to see if it might be your computer or Ubuntu. That way we have it narrowed down a bit. [20:13] somethingelse, oh. Sorry. I should've seen that. Are you using Unity? [20:13] BinaryMan: do we need to consult our crystal ball, or is this a random guess [20:13] Hi, does anyone know if texlive is part of the default install in natty? [20:13] I'm having major keyboard lag after upgrading, what do I do? [20:13] What's wrong with the lastest version? Why is it loading for hours? [20:13] BinaryMan: if its production, test first [20:13] hey all, is the 2.2tb limit on all 32-bit systems, or just ones that don't use GPT? i have a 32-bit ubuntu server, and i want to add a 3tb drive... [20:13] acicula: I can't. I don't have the same machine to play with. [20:13] macross: Please, this channel is for support. [20:13] Or. [20:13] Leo, http://bredsaal.dk/improving-randomness-and-entropy-in-ubuntu-9-10 [20:13] Hey all, just got 11.04 and i saw those rotating wallpaper sets. How can i make my own? [20:13] Actually. [20:13] I take that back. [20:13] macross: ok has your Unity froozen? [20:13] BinaryMan: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [20:13] BinaryMan: do you need to ugprade for any reason at all? [20:13] Question - I can't set Chromium to be my default browser in 11.04. When I select it in the preferences menu, nothing happens. When I open Chromium, it asks me every time if I want to make it my default. Regardless of what I say, it keeps asking me each time I open it. Any ideas? [20:14] is it smart to upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 now? or wait a couple weeks to get stuff ironed out? What are y'alls thoughts [20:14] arrrghhh, gpt will avoid that limit [20:14] I haven't gotten a notice to upgrade my ubuntu. Im still on lucid lynx. [20:14] i have no window manager i cannot move anything my main menu is gone i can open nothing [20:14] How do I upgrade now? [20:14] escott, excellent, thanks. [20:14] Raikia: Wait 2-4 weeks. That's what I'm doing. [20:14] Raikia: not sure if it's up yet, but there was something about being able to try Ubuntu 11.04 with Unity 2D in a web browser, on the Ubuntu site [20:14] acicula: GPU hangs at random and I have to REISUB to fix. [20:14] plustax: Run the update manager [20:14] compiz is gone i can run nothing [20:14] acicula: integrated intel [20:14] Starminn: thought so. sebsebseb: I just got an upgrade notice. thats why i asked [20:14] Raikia, 10.10 will be supported for quite a while, so if you're not in a hurry, don't feel pressured. :) [20:14] when does natty come out? [20:14] i need to wipe this machine and resintall 10.10 [20:14] BinaryMan: !lts [20:14] BinaryMan: sandy bridge processor? [20:14] galamar, its out [20:14] oh [20:14] never using 11 what a terrible change [20:15] Raikia: in certain ways 10.10 is better, in certain waysi it's worse, and even in certain ways other dsitro's are better, but well this really does depend on the user [20:15] BinaryMan: | !lts [20:15] im running it [20:15] thanks all [20:15] ahh well good for trying i suppose [20:15] sebsebseb: Story of linux :-P [20:15] but copying osx was a bad idea [20:15] but it doesnt say I have an update up top like usual [20:15] !lts | BinaryMan [20:15] BinaryMan: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) [20:15] macross, I don't mind it tbh [20:15] macross, takes 5 seconds to switch back in the login screen. [20:15] Can you make rotating wallpapers in unity? [20:15] what happened to the netbook version [20:15] when will upgrade manager show it? [20:15] Z1nn0c: Please don't PM, are you using btrfs? [20:15] macross, copying what? [20:15] plustax: In a terminal "sudo apt-get update" [20:15] osx [20:15] plustax: Then open Update Manager again. [20:15] im using ubuntu 10.10, wanting to upgrade. I ran apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade, but it says there is nothing to update (and update-manager says im all up to date). Do I need to do anything else? [20:15] macross, hardly. [20:15] arand: Sure, the live CD is loading for hours. [20:15] sure looks it [20:15] acicula: don't think so. Atom N550 [20:16] usr13: i know. [20:16] Is there any change to classic gnome desktop from 10.10 in 11.04 ? [20:16] jo-erlend, If there's some like voting booth or something I could go to to let everyone know that I don't think this is a good direction for the OS I would be very interested in doing so. Unity has to be one of the least customizable things I've ever seen. You can't even pick which screen edge to display it on (unless there's some manual hack for that I'm not aware of) [20:16] gsr: sudo do-release-upgrade [20:16] macross, the global menu is similar, but works differently. That's the *only* similarity. [20:16] o/ [20:16] macross, take this somewhere else. This is very offtopic for this channel. [20:16] Z1nn0c: I don't know. [20:16] arand: What is btrfs? [20:16] Stameni, very small. [20:16] IdleOne: danke [20:16] macross, I've used Ubuntu since 2005. Ever since I started, people somehow found in their twisted minds something to say about how Ubuntu was copying Mac. Ever. Since. Day. One. [20:16] Stameni: AFAIK it uses the "Main Menu" by default but other than that it's mostly the same. [20:16] gsr: Raikia by the way not really a good idea to try upgrading to 11.04 right now, the repo's are apparnatly slow [20:16] It's old, and a dead horse. [20:16] Z1nn0c: A filesystem, nevermind it doesn't affect your issue [20:16] Stameni, the appindicators have been improved and such. Default apps have obviously changed in classic ubuntu as well, but other than that, not much. [20:16] The global menu, yes it's similar, but not identical. The similarities pretty much stop there. [20:16] gsr: Raikia since release day [20:17] sebsebseb: thanks [20:17] Question - I can't set Chromium to be my default browser in 11.04. When I select it in the preferences menu, nothing happens. When I open Chromium, it asks me every time if I want to make it my default. Regardless of what I say, it keeps asking me each time I open it. Any ideas? [20:17] Is there no netbook iso for 11.04? [20:17] arand: Yes, the live CD loaded to the background and still loading for hours. [20:17] Guys, have you seen a bug like that? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ov7pGtys7H8 [20:17] Where do I get the netbook iso? [20:17] tdn: They've been merged into one. [20:17] tdn: there is no more netbook verion [20:17] acicula: my mistake. N455 [20:17] version* [20:17] tdn, I think the netbook remix is gone, since its so similar to what the regular desktop is now. [20:17] escott: I actually used the local console (not SSH/telnet) to play tetris for just that reason. Maybe I just need to play longer. Not the worst thing to have to do. :) If that doesn't work I'll have a look at some of the alternative sources. [20:17] BinaryMan: In other words, for a "production" system, you are in a good place. If it is doing what you need it to do, wait ... That is my recommendation. (But you could ask 3 different people and get 3 different answers, so.... for what it's worth...) [20:17] tdn, there is no more netbook version. There is only ubuntu and ubuntu server. [20:17] jo-erlend, Sta4minn, thank you. I will migrate to 11.04 classic desktop than. It can be set to default ? [20:17] jo-erlend, Starminn, thank you. I will migrate to 11.04 classic desktop than. It can be set to default ? [20:17] Ok. [20:17] Stameni, you just choose it whenever you login. It's at the bottom of the screen after you've selected your user. [20:17] Stameni: You choose it at login. Like any other Desktop Environment. [20:18] Then there is a dead link on the ubuntu.com page. When you go to alternative downloads and chose bittorrent there is one for netbook and it gives 404. [20:18] usr13: i have client machines running ubuntu in a computer lab with video issues and the issues was closed, suggest I upgrade to natty due to improved video card support. [20:18] Starminn: you can get to Ubuntu Classic from the log in screen, and set as default, but of interest why do you want that? [20:18] why is it, that even though I told it *not* to get updates from online while using the alternate iso, it's still downloading files? [20:18] but if i dont want login screen, can gnome be default ? [20:18] What a painful upgrade! Do --not-- try to enable desktop cube with ccsm [20:18] TerryBook, I noticed that too, was easily the longest part of the install [20:18] Starminn it said unable to lock the administration directory [20:18] If I downloaded a natty disc before its release date can I use that disc to install, or do I need to redownload? [20:18] can i run php as an user? [20:19] tdn, URL please? Keep in mind that there are more releases alive. 10.04 and 10.10 will be available for quite a while. Those do have netbook editions. [20:19] usr13: so, I'm banking on the hope that natty would also fix my video issues. [20:19] Stameni: once you got Classic set as default, you can have auto log in set up, and should go into that by default :) [20:19] jnlsnl_, php -i [20:19] Hello. Am I blind or that Unity bar is completly uncustomable? E.g. I want to add also folders there, edit width etc... [20:19] jnlsnl_: like... in commandline? [20:19] TheRedOctober, I was just about too... [20:19] galamar: Just update. [20:19] Is it possible to use Landscape as a normal (non-commercial) user ? [20:19] Alright, my GUI on ubuntu is messed up. I have a flash drive and an ubuntu 10.10 desktop ISO. From the CLI, how can I make the flash drive bootable? [20:19] sebsebseb tnx, thats good :) [20:19] tdn: that link is a bug, it's been reported [20:19] anyone using XChat 2.8.8 on 11.04? [20:19] koistinen: you can add other app icons on it, and that's about it I think, unless you use the compiz settings, but yes in general it's rather uncoustomiable at the moment [20:19] Ziber: Have you properly written the .iso too the drive? === Uncle|Sam is now known as uncle|sam [20:19] hey, does 11.04 support Nvida GeForce 310M ? [20:19] BinaryMan: It very will could, not sure. Depends on what your particular video issues are. [20:19] I need to run a bash command from a php script, but the command is not executed.. i suspect because of permission issues [20:19] Wickedspawn, is that the one in the repo? [20:19] Luke_: is that a new card or? [20:19] Starminn: Well, I'm asking how to do that. [20:20] Monotoko: yea [20:20] Wickedspawn, I'm using xchat from the repos. If that's 2.8.8, I am. But that's not a useful question. I'm going away now and I have no idea what you really wanted to ask. [20:20] hmm... not brand new [20:20] usr13 acicula: i'll make a dd image of /boot and the LUKS partiton. if something breaks, I can boot from a liveCD and push the images back to the hard drive like nothing ever happened. [20:20] Wickedspawn, then yeah I am [20:20] I couldn't even add a custom script to the unity launcher [20:20] please where can I enable compiz Ezoom in natty. Im visually impaired and it is a pain looking at the tiny everything and I am lost in the mess left by the uprgrade [20:20] Ziber: What Ubuntu version are you using? [20:20] Hi can some one explain , is it a good idea to upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 ...if my works are completely depends on ubuntu.. i mean the job...i'm asking this because it is just released.. [20:20] then I tried to add the terminal by dragging it onto the bar and it just put a gap between two icons [20:20] without anything in it [20:20] Starminn: I'm on ubuntu 9.04 lts, but the GUI isnt working... [20:20] starwinn, i want to reinstall because my current install is not a x86_64 version its an i586 so i want to better suit my processor. [20:20] !ezoom [20:20] Luke_: well not sure if there are stil quite a few issues with the propritary Nivida drivers resulting in Unity crashing, in 11.04 or not, but if so, you could install, and then remove the propritary driver, and try the experimental I guess. [20:20] Ziber: Oh.... I couldn't tell you. [20:21] Monotoko: every nickname I put in the Nicknames not to highlight box gets eaten. [20:21] jo-erlend: ^^ [20:21] aravinda, it doesn't hurt to wait. If you depend on it, I think a golden rule is to upgrade when you need to. Think why instead of why not. [20:21] BinaryMan: If you have another drive, you install it as slave and clone it. [20:21] escott: ok back [20:21] like I see no reply from them at all... [20:21] Ziber: I think you eman 10.04 LTS? [20:21] aravinda, if you use your keyboard a lot, don't upgrade [20:21] but it is in my raw log [20:21] Ziber: if your on 9.04 still that's not supported anymore [20:21] sadly [20:21] please can you help me re-enable compiz Ezoom in natty? [20:21] r000t: why do you say that [20:21] I also tried to pin the active google chrome window on the bar by selecting the pin option, and the freaking thing would never open a new chrome window ever.... [20:21] is there a unity guru here? [20:21] ok then i try to install [20:21] OverTheHillAndFa: what's your question [20:21] hypetech, major keyboard lag after upgrading [20:21] ya i use keyboard very much [20:21] thx for your help [20:21] BinaryMan: There are several things you could do to make an easy path back to where you are. [20:21] I have a 5 second lag when I use the backspace key [20:22] r000t: I haven't had that problem :\ [20:22] OverTheHillAndFa, we'll try help the best we can, even if we are not gurus. :) [20:22] what' sthe default install directory of applications? [20:22] Well, either that, or suggestions on how to fix my GUI... My login screen doesnt show me a password prompt, so I cant login. [20:22] and i work with tools like maven [20:22] Can Unity be moved yet? [20:22] Wickedspawn, ahhh I don't use that feature [20:22] sorry [20:22] r000t: thats an odd problem [20:22] Superstar, moved? [20:22] OchoZero9, /usr/bin for binaries /usr/share for resources /usr/lib for you get the ide [20:22] jo-erlend: I think he means putting the dock somewhere else [20:22] awesome > kde > gnome > unity [20:22] jo-erlend to the bottom of the screen [20:22] r000t: what software do you use that might be doing passive grabs, or are you using an ime? or did you mess with xorg's priority [20:22] i uninstalled unity-2d and reinstalled standard unity. now it will not load from login. only from terminal [20:23] OverTheHillAndFa: have you tried "unity --reset" ? [20:23] Superstar, no, and I don't think that's going to happen, unless we get a portrait mode. But that'd almost certainly include other stuff as well. [20:23] nope [20:23] OverTheHillAndFa: give that a shot and see if it helps on reboot [20:23] Ziber: Reinstall gdm? [20:23] Could try. [20:23] can i make rotating wallpapers using unity? the gnome methods dont work anymore obviously [20:23] ohsix, I don't know what the first two mean, and no, I did not change xorg's priority [20:24] : why it is ? regarding keyboard [20:24] Tora1188: no don't think so [20:24] r000t: find out what the first two mean and investigate the software you are running [20:24] HELP! [20:24] Anyone know if there exists a Banshee plugin to add Spotify support? [20:24] Tora1188: also the Gnome 2 wall papers, do work in Unity, because it's on top of Gnome 2 still for 11.04 [20:24] crud. I saw those nice roating sets preloaded and thought they made it native. [20:24] funny no one in the ayatana channel did not suggest that? [20:24] !ask | leagris [20:24] leagris: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [20:24] why can't I use alt tab to switch app, where is compiz config [20:24] where do I re-enable Ezoom? [20:24] i have over 4GB in /usr/lib is that normal? [20:24] leagris: do "ccsm" [20:24] Witchsong_: no don't think so [20:25] Witchsong_: you can run Spotify in Wine though [20:25] r000t: also paste the output of xlsclients -al to a pastebin [20:25] hyptech: seems like it might work. will do a reboot soon [20:25] natty nuked my wireless, can anyone point me to a fix? [20:25] OverTheHillAndFa: cool [20:25] OchoZero9: did you install kde? it is normal [20:25] !details | escott [20:25] escott: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [20:25] It seems new release doesn't stable enough to work in a professional environment???????? [20:25] Witchsong_: are you heksesang? [20:25] I don't understand what possessed them to put it on the left. They must be confused. Decade of computing has launches, top or bottom as the norm - ie windows 3.1-7 and osx, and they thought this would be cool or different? [20:25] sebsebseb, I know, but I'd love to have a plugin for it in Banshee so I wouldn't have to use Wine and it would better integrate with Unity. :) [20:25] aravinda: well persoanlly I woudn't give Unity to a business at this time :) [20:25] guys im trying to open package manager and i have error said that there is something wrong in the sources.list file ? [20:25] how can i fix that ? [20:25] Tetsuo55, yes. :) [20:26] Witchsong_: where you been man, join the mpc chan [20:26] Superstar: start menus have always been in top left or bottom left [20:26] hyptech: now it just says: Setting Update "run_key" in terminal. should i just wait? [20:26] ohsix: Yes. [20:26] Tetsuo55: mpc chan? [20:26] sebsebseb : so it's better wait..:) [20:26] OverTheHillAndFa: yea just let it finish, I interrupted mine the other day and rebooted anyway and all was fine, but I'd try and let it finish anyway [20:26] hypetech but a launcher has never. unity is a launcher not just a start menu [20:26] sebsebseb: #mpc-hc its a windows media player, doesnt work on wine right now [20:27] Tetsuo55, been busy, getting ready to finish my bachelor degree. In two months I will finally be done. :D [20:27] hyptech: ok, thanks :) [20:27] Witchsong_: and then full-time coding on mpc-hc? :P [20:27] asmogator: if I was running a business I would more likely give them Gnome Shell http://gnome3.org ,but I think for now Gnome 2 and KDE and such, would be more suitable, and for quite a while yet really [20:27] sebsebseb, it was directed at me, I've been doing some coding on the player. ;) [20:27] Tetsuo55, if you're willing to pay me. :P [20:28] ok so how do i get my current install to recognize that natty is available? [20:28] Witchsong_: i can you in "gratitudes", that work for you? [20:28] Actually I've changed my mind reading this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/33605/can-i-move-the-unity-launcher-to-the-bottom-of-the-screen-like-windows-7 [20:28] ohsix, http://pastebin.com/dC4B8hpK [20:28] Withong_ a bit more sober than banshee but mopidy works natively [20:28] galamar: Which version is your curren install? [20:28] it's based on mpd (music player deamon) [20:28] 10.10 [20:28] Tetsuo55, it doesn't taste as good as the food I'd get if I had money. :P [20:28] hello [20:28] !upgrade | galamar [20:28] galamar: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [20:28] thanks! [20:28] galamar: trying to upgrade now would probably be pretty slow by the way [20:28] Witchsong_: true [20:29] it's true on a 1920x1080 display i have a lot of horizontal space that never gets used. i take it back [20:29] i've just updated my ubuntu into 11.04.... how can i remove this unity panel with apps icons? i really like 'docky' ;/ [20:29] Anyone here know how much work it would be to write a Spotify plugin for Banshee? [20:29] so I should wait to upgrade/ [20:29] and the default apps menu under 'gnome icon' [20:29] anyoen here happen to have a dell e6400 and installed 10.04 problemfree? [20:29] galamar: i wish I had [20:30] Hello. I've made it far coming here. My journey has been long. I am new to Ubuntu, as you might understand. Now, I am wondering what I need to do in order to update my Alpha 11.04 to the full version - any clues? [20:30] KlingaN: install updates. the end. [20:30] KlingaN: go into Update Manager and you will find it [20:30] r000t: what is "exe", and that unknown entry? [20:30] ooohhh [20:30] maco: Update manager? [20:30] KlingaN: yep [20:30] TheRedOctober: Thanks [20:30] is there an ubuntu server chan or is this the place for that 2? [20:30] KlingaN: "alpha" is just a name for a certain point in time during the dev cycle. if you kept up with installing updates the whole time, you've moved from alpha to beta to final automatically [20:31] KlingaN: NP, hope you enjoy [20:31] pdg1: #ubuntu-server [20:31] maco: the red october: Is there any way to confirm my version? [20:31] Im in update manager running lucid lynx. and I dont see the new OS update anywhere [20:31] iksik: you can change to Ubuntu Classic Desktop from the log in screen, and set as default even :) [20:31] maco thnx [20:31] KlingaN: if you have no updates available, you're at final [20:31] how do I update from 10 to 11 [20:31] klingaN: lsb_release -a [20:31] plustax: lucid is an lts release so only shows other lts releases by default [20:31] sebsebseb, unity looks fine with this 'global menu' feature [20:31] plustax: 10.04 or 10.10 ? [20:31] r000t: use xprop -id with those window id's and pastebin the output [20:31] sebrock im on 10.10 [20:31] why is my flash slow? on webpages things blink alot slower than they should. [20:31] but the only thing is that panel and menu ;/ [20:31] sebsebseb i mean [20:31] plustax: in the software sources thing in the menu, change update settings to show non-lts releases. then you can upgrade to 10.10 [20:32] iksik: Ubuntu Classic Desktop can use the global menu as well, I don't think it's default though, well it may be [20:32] plustax: from there to 11.04. you cannot skip 10.10 [20:32] uhm [20:32] ok, thanks, i'll try [20:32] galamar: its proprietary :) [20:32] flash sucks on linux. always has. probably always will. [20:32] bastards [20:32] plustax: 10.10 isnt lucid [20:32] flash sucks in general [20:32] !language | galamar [20:32] galamar: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. [20:32] !upgrade | galamar [20:32] galamar: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [20:32] lol [20:32] I'm running 10.10 and I've got a updates that say "Partial Upgrade"... is that something to do with the move o 11.04 ???? [20:32] can anyone help ,me with this? I need to give PHP permission to execute a bash script [20:32] galamar: and upgrading now will probably be slow [20:32] sebsebseb, where i can find 'logout' here? : D [20:33] nutsfornatty, hypetech: w4m [20:33] WoW test 1! :P [20:33] iksik: on the top right, in the menu there, in Unity [20:33] removing gnome applets such as weather, notification area... sux :( [20:33] are the update servers overloaded? I'm upgrading with only 40kB/s [20:33] koistinen: indeed [20:33] It's really hard to keep up with the chatting here... === meisth0th is now known as meisth0th_zzz [20:33] trijntje: yea [20:33] jnlsnl: wow, never heard that one before...why use php in such a situation? [20:33] ? [20:33] koistinen: ,but sadly even Gnome Shell has done that, but that feature is probably coming for Gnome 3.2 :) the next one in about six months, yay nice :) [20:33] jnlsnl_: make sure the script is set to executable [20:33] weather app is there, you can install from terminal === brian is now known as Guest58767 [20:33] after Kubuntu 11.04 install, I automatically log into classic mode, how I can change this? [20:34] I cant find in my update settings how to go from 10.10 to 11 [20:34] sebsebseb: thanks... yeah, that sux :/ [20:34] okay so as for my first issue with the windows being to far up to grab and alt to grab doesnt work either any solutions for that? [20:34] !isitout [20:34] Yes, join #ubuntu-release-party to celebrate! [20:34] plustax: "sudo do-release-upgrade" [20:34] buco: log out, and select what you want on log in screen [20:34] hypetech, ok, thanks. Maybe I should just cancel the upgrade and try again tomorrow. Or would that break stuff when its still downloading? [20:34] I want to make a service hook from github that executes a git pull command so a test server is in synch with my repository [20:34] ...where does FF download to?? [20:34] trijntje: it won't break anything if it's still in the downloading phase [20:34] trijntje: yeah not really a good idea to cancel the upgrade once you started [20:34] user / downloads folder @ monotoko [20:34] oh I am on 10.04 so I need to upgrade to 10.10 first [20:34] hypetech i did 777 on it and nothing :/ [20:34] tanx sebsebseb, i gonna try [20:34] trijntje: installing stuff [20:34] how do I do that? [20:34] Monotoko: To Downloads/ by default (if it exists) [20:34] jnlsnl_: do "chmod a+x
