I never remember, but I remember I can never get them first thing in the morning like I want to. [02:55] * FTMichael scrolls up [02:56] Sorry, didn't realise that was just discussed :P [02:57] naw its ok [02:57] * FTMichael likes shiny releases. [03:16] hi everybody [03:16] hello [03:17] i have a big problem [03:17] shure ask away [03:18] i`have typed by error apt-get remove libusb* [03:18] then every thing is gone [03:19] then type sudo apt-get install libusb* [03:19] or do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [03:19] last one is better [03:20] the problem is that all dependant drivers are gone [03:20] even cd driver [03:21] ubuntu-desktop is a package that will get all the packages you had when you first got it installed [03:22] but could this result to loosing my other installed package [03:22] ? [03:23] posabley [03:23] ah i`have forgotten to mention it [03:24] internet driver is ruined [03:24] deleted [03:24] then time to reinstall [03:25] there is also a command called apt-cdrom that add the cd package to sourcelist [03:26] ya you can do that you could just reinstall on top with out formating the drives [03:27] but how [03:27] crap i dont rember how [03:27] but you could ask in #ubuntu [03:28] logically it must have such solution [03:28] like in windows [03:30] yep [03:30] it does [03:30] i just dont rember it [03:32] thx [03:33] n/p [03:35] by the way how could someone dill with this big number of users in ubuntu channel [03:35] dill? [03:35] there are over 1500 users [03:35] deal [03:36] ya that is normal if some one says thay can help you tell them to msg you so you can have a 1 on 1 so to speek [03:36] i mean [03:36] ok [03:37] i got it [03:37] thnx one more time === emma is now known as em === Daviey_ is now known as Daviey [14:25] Anyone updated by running update-manager -d and definitely got the final release, not the beta? [14:26] FTMichael: oneiric isn't available anywhere yet, so you should still get natty. [14:26] :P I meant Natty [14:26] Well the -d switch is for upgrading to the development release. [14:27] But just running update-manager doesn't tell me Natty's available [14:27] Make sure that you don't have it set to notify you for LTS releases only. [14:27] Just retried - it's there now. :) [15:56] hiya! anyone who could point me in a good direction to solve the trackpad problem with an hp mini 210? can't use two fingers due to jumpy pointer (aka no selecting anything with trackpad, no dragging, no fun) [15:56] using google is just too confusing with this, ive tried synaptics and all that but still no good solution found [15:58] search ubuntuforums.org [16:02] done that, there's a few solutions on there but nothing seems to work. and now with 11.04 most issues have been dealth with except for that one, so i thought maybe new solutions would've popped up already. [16:04] will look further, thanks though === mostly_harmless is now known as Mostly_Harmless === Mostly_Harmless is now known as Mostly-Harmless === Mostly-Harmless is now known as mostly-harmless === mostly-harmless is now known as paspro [18:22] Unity question - my messaging menu doesn't have anything in it but 'Mail' (Evolution) and Ubuntu One. I want to add Pidgin but can't figure out how. [18:25] FTMichael, install pidgin [18:25] I already have Pidgin. [18:25] or make shure you have some of the other addons for pidgin [18:26] Which addon do I need to make it work? :P [18:26] let me look [18:27] did it install pidgin-libnotify [18:27] It certainly should have done. I've had Pidgin for ages. Let me look [18:27] wtf, no, libnotify isn't there. one sec [18:28] installed. Should I restart Pidgin? Restart Unity? [18:28] restart pidgin [18:28] right-o [18:29] so?? [18:29] Nope. [18:29] ok just log out log back it [18:29] in [18:30] okay [18:30] that might fix it cause its listed in mine [18:31] nope. [18:31] hmm [18:31] now it has Mail, Compose New Message, and Contacts. [18:31] it is listed in mime bolth in unity and xubuntu [18:31] all of which are Evolution [18:32] i even have xchat listed thare [18:32] :-/ [18:34] Got Gmail Notifier to show up there, which is something [18:35] i have gwibber (listed as brodcast) [18:35] and the evo crap [18:36] I don't have Gwibber installed which I presume is why it's not listed there either [18:38] welp i am outie gota take the wife to her school [18:39] have fun [18:39] thanks for the help [19:17] * darkmatter stuffs a used sock in zenrox mouth :O === FufuPilot is now known as FuturePilot [20:07] * zenrox grabes darkmatter's neck and farts close to his nose === __mikem is now known as mmiller235 [22:20] Does anyone know why the ubuntu theme engine crashes whenever gnome OR unity runs in virtualbox? [22:48] mmiller235: probably the virtualbox graphics drivers, at a guess [22:48] more than that I'd have no idea [22:50] Joeb454 okay I disabled those and it sort of works except that the drop shadows are all blotchy [22:50] also all audio is running at double speed [22:50] mmiller235: not sure about the audio, but this might help for your graphics [22:50] http://www.theopensourcerer.com/2011/04/21/ubuntu-natty-in-virtualbox-with-unity/ [22:53] Joeb454 would you happen to know how to uninstall the regular guest additions [22:53] Joeb454 apparently according to that link you gave me, the regular guest additions suck and fail at life [22:54] I would not have the faintest of ideas, unless they are removable via apt, sorry [22:56] Joeb454 are the ose additions available in apt? [22:59] mmiller235: try running apt-cache search virtualbox-ose [23:00] found it [23:09] Joeb454 okay, I tried what that article said and the only difference is, now the theme engine is craashing on a system running the open source edition guest additions [23:09] >.< Sorry mmiller235, that's the only guess I could take at why it might not be working [23:09] i know, thanks for trying [23:10] what really pisses me off is, ubuntu has NEVER worked in virtualbox for me [23:10] it's worked for me plenty of times, but I never need to run compiz in a virtual machine, so maybe that's why [23:10] compiz is required to run Unity, which makes it more difficult for VM's [23:10] Joeb454 it happens even when I disable all the 3d effects [23:10] it happens in gnome classic as well [23:10] yeah ok, that is odd [23:10] not sure why that would be [23:11] no matter what, as soon as either gnome or unity launches, it switches to "ugly" mode within a minute [23:13] I give up [23:14] virtualbox is hopeless [23:14] it used to be good back when innotek owned the project [23:15] I only really use it to host server versions of ubuntu for development, so it's not too bad for me [23:16] I agree though, it does frustrate me a lot when I'm trying to use it with a desktop version [23:16] I could understand if it didn't work with the 3d stuff, but it isn't even working properly with the 2d stuff [23:16] its become a complete joke [23:17] the problem is, Parallels (which DOES support 3D in ubuntu guests) won't have support for 11.04 for a few months
