| s7nf | Hey guys. There is one program which I need, but at downloads it is listed as Debian software | 12:12 |
| s7nf | this usually means that it is not for ubuntu. Am I right? Is there anything I can do? | 12:12 |
| stlsaint | s7nf: you do know that ubuntu is built with debian so that software is safe for ubuntu use | 12:14 |
| stlsaint | s7nf: first off what package are we talking about here? | 12:14 |
| s7nf | hi stlsaint , im talking about http://orange.biolab.si/nightly_builds.html | 12:15 |
| s7nf | btw, what is meant by the word package? | 12:16 |
| stlsaint | s7nf: nice app there (in google summer of code too ;) ) | 12:18 |
| stlsaint | s7nf: just the app name | 12:18 |
| stlsaint | is what i was asking about | 12:18 |
| stlsaint | s7nf: well i would say that it is safe to install that app on your machine | 12:19 |
| s7nf | ok tnx, will do that :) | 12:19 |
| stlsaint | s7nf: "Packages are not signed as they are made automatically so you will probably be warned about this." | 12:20 |
| stlsaint | s7nf: ^^ something to be aware of | 12:20 |
| s7nf | ok, tnx | 12:21 |
| s7nf | stlsaint, you still here? After installing it, and trying to run it, I get this error: ImportError: No module named orngEnviron . Should I set the environment variables? | 12:48 |
| stlsaint | s7nf: check the website documentation first | 12:56 |
| stlsaint | i do not know what environment variable must be set for a app to run in this manner | 12:57 |

| aztek | hi all... | 18:07 |
| DraZoro | Hi aztek | 18:07 |
| aztek | it is difficult for me to find ubuntu books or linux books in my town... | 18:08 |
| aztek | any body has the e-books? | 18:09 |
| DraZoro | You need hard copies ? | 18:09 |
| aztek | e-books.. | 18:09 |
| DraZoro | aztek : Google is your friend .... | 18:10 |
| holstein | aztek: what are you looking for? | 18:10 |
| DraZoro | azteck: There so many topics ..my internet is giving me issues now | 18:11 |
| holstein | the ubuntu wikis are quite handy | 18:11 |
| holstein | assuming you have internet access everywhere | 18:11 |
| coalwater | any one uses xchat here? | 18:11 |
| holstein | coalwater: i have in the past | 18:11 |
| holstein | whats up? | 18:11 |
| aztek | holstein: ok, i am going to browsing.. :-D | 18:12 |
| coalwater | well, xchat is acting weird, if u check the user list ull find coalwater, coalwater_ , coalwater__ , all 3 in the channel, and they are all active, it doesn't time out, and if u talk to any one i get a notifcation, it's annoying, i want to kill the rest | 18:12 |
| Error404NotFound | moo | 18:12 |
| holstein | thats probably less to do with xchat | 18:13 |
| holstein | and more to do with users | 18:13 |
| holstein | i would ghost your nick | 18:13 |
| holstein | and make sure you dont have any other clients running | 18:13 |
| coalwater | yea, i can ghost my self but i cant ghost the rest | 18:13 |
| coalwater | i get an xchat notification with any name | 18:13 |
| holstein | well, it *should* get sorted out | 18:13 |
| holstein | eventually | 18:13 |
| holstein | you can ask freenode to clean them out | 18:14 |
| holstein | or a + in here to kick them | 18:14 |
| coalwater | they come back when i re login | 18:15 |
| holstein | yeah? | 18:16 |
| holstein | thats odd | 18:16 |
| holstein | i suppose in that case | 18:16 |
| holstein | i would look for .xchat | 18:16 |
| holstein | or whatever the config is | 18:16 |
| holstein | in /home | 18:16 |
| holstein | and throw it out | 18:16 |
| holstein | you could rename it temporarily | 18:16 |
| holstein | so you can revert | 18:16 |
| holstein | IF that doesnt do anything | 18:17 |
| mang0 | I need to use super grub on a floppy drive, I have the ISO, how do I make it bootable? | 18:17 |
| coalwater | ok, ill delete every thing , i dont mind re configuring | 18:17 |
| holstein | mang0: what are you trying to do? | 18:17 |
| coalwater | brb for now | 18:17 |
| mang0 | holstein: for some reason, grub won't boot iup windows. It gets stuck on a underscore | 18:18 |
| mang0 | I need supergrub to try it :) | 18:18 |
| holstein | yeah? | 18:18 |
| holstein | i dont | 18:18 |
| holstein | win7 just boots for me | 18:18 |
| holstein | coalwater: the other users | 18:18 |
| holstein | they didnt budge | 18:18 |
| coalwater | holstein, they came back with me ? lol | 18:18 |
| holstein | im still not convinced the issue is on your end | 18:18 |
| holstein | coalwater: i think it just seems like they did | 18:19 |
| holstein | they actually didnt go anywhere | 18:19 |
| coalwater | they should time out | 18:19 |
| holstein | i think they are just stuck | 18:19 |
| holstein | coalwater: *should* | 18:19 |
| coalwater | coalwater_, test | 18:19 |
| coalwater | i still get the notifications :( lol | 18:19 |
| holstein | odd | 18:19 |
| mang0 | but how do I make a floopy disk bootable anyway? I need to write the iso to it...how? | 18:19 |
| holstein | well | 18:19 |
| holstein | coalwater: that depends | 18:19 |
| holstein | you could get coalwater notifications | 18:20 |
| holstein | and coalwater__ or coalwater_whatever | 18:20 |
| holstein | would ping you | 18:20 |

| coalwater | holstein_ , wouldnt ping u would it | 18:20 |
| holstein | thats where i go for that kind of think | 18:20 |
| mang0 | k thanks | 18:20 |
| holstein | mang0: but, i would be trying to make the current grub just boot windows | 18:21 |
| mang0 | Tried that :/ | 18:21 |
| holstein | since, for most everyone else, this is auto-magic | 18:21 |
| mang0 | I WILL TRY MORE! | 18:21 |
| holstein | coalwater: if you say holstein_whatever | 18:21 |
| holstein | i should get a ping | 18:21 |
| holstein | but, i have it set up that way | 18:21 |
| holstein | coalwater: i would pop into #freenode for a minute | 18:22 |
| holstein | and see if someone would just kill your extras | 18:22 |
| holstein | mang0: what version of linux/windows? | 18:23 |
| mang0 | ubuntu 11.04, win XP | 18:23 |
| holstein | and , not to be captain obvious | 18:23 |
| holstein | BUT | 18:23 |
| holstein | from ubuntu | 18:23 |
| holstein | run in a terminal | 18:23 |
| holstein | sudo update-grub | 18:24 |
| holstein | and reboot | 18:24 |
| holstein | assuming you havent done that* | 18:24 |
| mang0 | Done that, twice :/ | 18:24 |
| holstein | OK | 18:24 |
| holstein | well, i say doing anything with a floppy | 18:24 |
| holstein | not a move forward | 18:24 |
| holstein | mang0: you see windows in the grub list? | 18:25 |
| mang0 | yes holstein | 18:25 |
| holstein | and whats the hard drive layout? | 18:25 |
| holstein | just one drive? | 18:25 |
| holstein | lin win and swap partitions? | 18:26 |
| mang0 | hold, on, I'm going to reboot, will take 1 sec | 18:26 |
| mang0 | 2 hds, identical, one win, one linux | 18:26 |
| mang0 | right, sec | 18:26 |
| mang0 | holstein: I'm back | 18:30 |
| holstein | mang0: o/ | 18:30 |
| holstein | if i were you | 18:30 |

| holstein | then, im assuming you mean you have 2 identical types of hard drives | 18:31 |
| holstein | you could always unplug the lin one | 18:31 |
| mang0 | holstein: yes, they are identical | 18:31 |
| mang0 | and yes, that's what I did | 18:31 |
| mang0 | but it's a faf | 18:31 |
| mang0 | I have to take the outside of the tower off | 18:31 |
| mang0 | and reach in | 18:32 |
| holstein | faf? | 18:32 |
| mang0 | bother | 18:32 |
| holstein | right | 18:32 |
| mang0 | lol. | 18:32 |
| holstein | OK | 18:32 |
| holstein | so, you *temprorarily* unpluge the lin one | 18:32 |
| holstein | run fixmbr or whatever it is | 18:32 |
| holstein | then, you can chose from the bios at least | 18:32 |
| holstein | most machine have a popup to choose the boot device anyways | 18:32 |
| holstein | but, i would try GAG | 18:33 |
| mang0 | yes, but if I choose the win one first then I can't even get to grub | 18:33 |
| mang0 | And I'm going to put it on a floppy disk | 18:33 |
| mang0 | :D | 18:33 |
| holstein | assuming you feel comfortable restoring grub and mbr | 18:33 |
| mang0 | O.o | 18:33 |
| * mang0 thinks | 18:33 | |
| holstein | mang0: ? | 18:33 |
| holstein | if you choose the win one | 18:33 |
| holstein | then, boot windows | 18:33 |
| mang0 | hm? | 18:34 |
| holstein | you have to reboot anyways | 18:34 |
| holstein | to get to lin | 18:34 |
| holstein | then, select the lin one | 18:34 |
| holstein | with my EEEpc | 18:34 |
| holstein | i hit escape | 18:34 |
| holstein | and choose whatever i want to boot | 18:34 |
| mang0 | you mean manually change the bios every time I want to boot windows or grub?! | 18:34 |
| holstein | thats a do-able work around | 18:34 |
| mang0 | *linux | 18:34 |
| holstein | mang0: kind of | 18:34 |
| holstein | i mean hit a button | 18:34 |
| holstein | that selects the boot device | 18:34 |
| holstein | using the bios | 18:34 |
| holstein | but not entering into the bios config each time | 18:35 |
| mang0 | for me, I have to go into the bios, select 1st and 2nd boot device, then reboot | 18:35 |
| holstein | i mean, do what you want | 18:35 |
| holstein | but doing anything with a floppy disc | 18:35 |
| holstein | ... | 18:35 |
| mang0 | lol | 18:35 |
| mang0 | but | 18:35 |
| holstein | try GAG | 18:35 |
| mang0 | will do | 18:35 |

| holstein | with a floppy disc? | 18:46 |
| mang0 | you see, I've installed winXP a couple of times, and win boot loader seems to think that I have two copies of windows, I have to select wich one to boot from (only one works) | 18:47 |
| mang0 | it seems ubuntu is detecting the one that doesnt exist | 18:47 |
| mang0 | grub is detecting* | 18:47 |

| holstein | cool* | 18:47 |
| holstein | i was going to ask about that | 18:47 |
| holstein | but you seemed so sure you only have win and lin | 18:48 |
| holstein | i have a restore partition that shows up in grub | 18:48 |
| holstein | shows up as vista | 18:48 |
| bioterror | should be then on another sdX partition | 18:48 |
| mang0 | hm...If grub showed both of them, it would be fine | 18:48 |
| holstein | sometimes you gotta fiddle with what grub finds automagically | 18:48 |
| mang0 | strange how it only shows one of them... | 18:48 |
| bioterror | but mang0 has windows on two hdd's | 18:48 |
| mang0 | how do I change grub manually? or change it like that... | 18:48 |
| mang0 | no no | 18:48 |
| mang0 | I have windows on one, linux n the other | 18:49 |
| mang0 | I did have windows on two, but i installed linux on one of them | 18:49 |
| bioterror | you didnt clear the whole disk ;) | 18:49 |
| holstein | enough of something hanging around to cause issues | 18:50 |
| bioterror | I would suggest to keep windows on primary hdd | 18:50 |
| mang0 | bioterror: Actually, i had to pick wich copy of windows to start looong before I installed ubuntu | 18:50 |
| mang0 | even though, only one "copy" worked | 18:51 |
| bioterror | why you didnt clear that boot.ini | 18:51 |
| bioterror | or what was that | 18:51 |
| mang0 | the other just said "fatel error" | 18:51 |
| mang0 | fatal* | 18:52 |
| holstein | i did a win7 restore here | 18:52 |
| bioterror | still, fix your boot.ini | 18:52 |
| holstein | before installing ubuntu | 18:53 |
| holstein | but, i dont think i'll bother next time | 18:53 |
| holstein | ive only booted in once to make sure grub was working | 18:53 |

| coalwater | maybe | 19:06 |
| coalwater | i think i might know what's the problem | 19:07 |
| coalwater | maybe it was the minimize to tray option | 19:07 |
| coalwater | lets see if i can re produce that problem | 19:08 |
| coalwater_ | yup, guess it's that | 19:10 |
| coalwater_ | minimize to tray removes from the unity menu, but leaves it active in the background | 19:10 |

| holstein | how to do the live CD and what not | 22:10 |
| holstein | *reinstall grub from a live CD | 22:10 |
| holstein | sounds like you just blew over some bad windows install anyways | 22:10 |
| mang0|mobile | Its my boot.ini that's screwed up | 22:11 |
| holstein | right | 22:11 |
| holstein | so, i would look there | 22:11 |
| holstein | try and get windows sorted | 22:11 |
| mang0|mobile | I mean, i can boot both it just means unpluging hich is a bother | 22:12 |
| holstein | well, that just means nothing is so bad it cant be fixed | 22:12 |

| eiriksvin | i'm on windows and don't know my way around to well with this | 22:40 |
| holstein | eiriksvin: let me tell you what you want | 22:40 |
| holstein | and you can decode that in infrarecorder terminology | 22:41 |
| eiriksvin | wuth Ubuntu its so easy... 3 clicks | 22:41 |
| holstein | you want to basically copy a disc | 22:41 |
| holstein | this can be done several ways | 22:41 |
| holstein | you have 2 burners | 22:41 |
| holstein | put the source in, and the destintion | 22:41 |
| holstein | and copy | 22:42 |
| holstein | OR | 22:42 |
| holstein | you put the disc in | 22:42 |
| holstein | and the machine makes a copy of that image on the machine | 22:42 |
| holstein | and writes that to another disc | 22:42 |
| holstein | thats what you want to do | 22:42 |
| holstein | except | 22:42 |
| holstein | the image is something you downloaded | 22:42 |
| holstein | SO, you make a copy | 22:42 |
| eiriksvin | I want to burn an image of the Ubuntu 10.04 LTS for amd64 (64 bit) onto a disk that i downloaded | 22:42 |
| holstein | using the downloaded image as the source | 22:42 |
| holstein | and a CD as the destination | 22:42 |
| holstein | eiriksvin: right | 22:43 |
| holstein | ^ | 22:43 |
| holstein | thats how you do it | 22:43 |
| holstein | i dont have that software | 22:43 |
| holstein | i could try and install it in wine | 22:43 |
| holstein | and look | 22:43 |
| holstein | and tell you the exact button to click on | 22:43 |
| holstein | but, i think you can probably sort it out with the information above :) | 22:44 |
| eiriksvin | thats what i'm doing, and it asks for the sesion type: SAO, TAO,TAO zero pre-gap | 22:44 |
| eiriksvin | and so on | 22:44 |
| holstein | right | 22:44 |
| holstein | SO, thats not it | 22:44 |
| holstein | it wont ask you anything | 22:44 |
| holstein | when you do it right | 22:44 |
| holstein | it'll just copy | 22:44 |
| holstein | using the downloaded image | 22:45 |
| holstein | the .iso | 22:45 |
| holstein | as a sourc | 22:45 |
| holstein | e | 22:45 |
| eiriksvin | im on windows, not ubuntu, im at my sisters house getting 10.04 cus i cant play games on Natty | 22:45 |
| eiriksvin | it wont read my nVIDIA | 22:45 |
| eiriksvin | but i know 10.04 does and im going back | 22:46 |
| holstein | eiriksvin: right | 22:46 |
| holstein | i understand that | 22:46 |
| holstein | its just, im on ubuntu and not windows | 22:46 |
| holstein | SO, i dont know how infrarecord works | 22:46 |
| holstein | the terminology could be different | 22:46 |
| eiriksvin | i have downloaded the iso burner that was suggested at ubuntu.com | 22:47 |
| eiriksvin | and thats all i was wondering | 22:47 |
| eiriksvin | should i do simulation while its writing? | 22:47 |
| holstein | eiriksvin: i have never seen that software | 22:47 |
| holstein | however, i am downloading it | 22:48 |
| holstein | and i'll see if it runs in wine | 22:48 |
| eiriksvin | thank you | 22:48 |
| holstein | eiriksvin: OK | 22:50 |
| holstein | so, what are you doing? | 22:50 |
| holstein | burning? | 22:50 |
| holstein | close it down if not | 22:50 |
| holstein | start infrarecorder | 22:51 |
| eiriksvin | yes, im burning at 10x in simulation mode | 22:51 |
| holstein | and you get a splash screen | 22:51 |
| holstein | click | 22:51 |
| holstein | 'copy disc' | 22:51 |
| eiriksvin | im wring disk | 22:51 |
| eiriksvin | writing | 22:51 |
| holstein | and you'll see 'source' and 'target' | 22:51 |
| eiriksvin | it says burning image | 22:52 |
| holstein | thats pretty much what i was saying above | 22:52 |
| holstein | except target = destination | 22:52 |
| eiriksvin | ok | 22:52 |
| holstein | SO, if what you're doing doesnt work | 22:52 |
| holstein | thats what you do :) | 22:52 |
| eiriksvin | sorry for the confusion | 22:52 |
| holstein | nah | 22:52 |
| holstein | its challengin | 22:52 |
| holstein | g | 22:52 |
| holstein | no worries | 22:53 |
| holstein | its just, i have never seen that software | 22:53 |
| eiriksvin | i'm trying to install Ubuntu on an intel quad core ACPI x64 which version should i get? the i386 or the amd64? | 22:53 |
| holstein | eiriksvin: thats up to you | 22:53 |
| head_victim | eiriksvin: I"ve used 64bit versions without dramas for a year or two now | 22:53 |
| holstein | yeah, the 64bit drama is quite minimal these days | 22:53 |
| eiriksvin | (first i had to get a new ubuntu for my pc) now im doing my sisters | 22:53 |
| head_victim | Some people have limited success with flash but then again people have issues with 32bit flash as well | 22:54 |
| holstein | flash is just not all that great for us | 22:54 |
| holstein | in general | 22:54 |
| head_victim | eiriksvin: my logic is not "why should I use 64bit" but "why should I NOT use 64 bit" | 22:54 |
| holstein | i have one 32bit only application | 22:55 |
| holstein | but i can use another box for it | 22:55 |
| eiriksvin | ok, but i don't know what to do about the i386 64 bit, or amd64 64bit | 22:55 |
| * holstein gotta run... laterx | 22:56 | |
| eiriksvin | i was told to try both but i don't want to screew anything up | 22:56 |
| eiriksvin | awe crappers | 22:56 |
| holstein | theres only the 2 options | 22:56 |
| holstein | 32 and 64bit | 22:56 |
| holstein | i386=32 | 22:56 |
| holstein | x86 | 22:57 |
| holstein | whatever | 22:57 |
| holstein | search around for wikipages about 32 and 64bit procs :) | 22:57 |
| eiriksvin | i thought it was chip based | 22:57 |
| holstein | your chip will be 64bit or 32bit | 22:57 |
| holstein | you can run 32bit OS's on a 64bit chip | 22:58 |
| holstein | not the other way... | 22:58 |
| holstein | anyways... BBL | 22:58 |
| eiriksvin | kk | 22:58 |
| jsebean | what should I use, Ubuntu 11.04 or Ubuntu 10.04? | 23:13 |
