[00:04] <Proz01d> i need to make cmake
[00:04] <Proz01d> oosp
[00:04] <Proz01d> i need cmake
[00:05] <holstein> Proz01d: that .deb doesnt work?
[00:05] <Proz01d> i just want to make sure i get the latest version
[00:17] <Proz01d> holstein how do i get the above?
[00:17] <holstein> Proz01d: ?
[00:18] <Proz01d> well i have a link like this http://mirror.pnl.gov/ubuntu//pool/universe/e/eurephia/eurephia_1.0.1-3build1_i386.deb but i have only ever used apt-get
[00:18] <Proz01d> not sure how to do it with a .deb file
[00:19] <holstein> Proz01d: you just click on the .deb
[00:19] <Proz01d> forgot to mention i'm on the CLI
[00:19] <holstein> OH
[00:19] <Proz01d> it's ubuntu server
[00:20] <holstein> cd /to/where_ever and run wget URL.deb
[00:20] <holstein> then sudo dpkg -i package_name.deb
[00:20] <holstein> like https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingSoftware
[00:21] <holstein> Proz01d: it might not work though*
[00:21] <Proz01d> how do i remove it
[00:22] <holstein> -r should do it
[00:22] <holstein> *assuming you get it to install
[00:22] <holstein> check out dpkg -help
[00:22] <Proz01d> thanks
[01:58] <philipballew> can i have terminal apps but on ubuntu server edition or do those apps not run in cli but only terminal?
[01:58] <philipballew> sorry for the stupid question
[01:59] <holstein> philipballew: its the same
[01:59] <holstein> *basically
[02:00] <philipballew> im going to set up a desktop to act as a dedacated media server for playing my music and i want to have the ability if need be use a cli music player to play music
[02:00] <holstein> sure, just open a terminal
[02:00] <holstein> philipballew: you might want to check out the application screen too
[02:01] <philipballew> how so?
[02:01] <holstein> im running irssi in screen (which is quite common) i can connect into irssi running in screen from any other machine
[02:02] <holstein> screen bascially allows a terminal app to remain running in the background
[02:02] <philipballew> so i can loggin to my server and play music directly off it from my laptop if i want to then?
[02:03] <holstein> depends really, on what you use to play it, and if you are playing the files locally (server side) or streaming them (client side)
[02:03] <holstein> just depends on what you want to do
[02:04] <philipballew> i was thinking set up the server on my network and maybe play directly off that or have it locally stream to a laptop that is old but can still just sit there plugged in to the headphone jack
[02:05] <holstein> sure, the options are limitless really
[02:14] <philipballew>  its the limitless options that make me confused :)
[02:22] <ryan_> hello everyone
[02:22] <ryan_> I need some help with my mouse going nutz on my ubuntu laptop
[02:23] <ryan_> I have done a ton of research and I can only come up with some simple solutions to the issue.  The issue is the mouse jumps around the screen all over the place uncontrolably
[02:24] <ryan_> and the only thing I can do is disable the touch pad using "xinput set-prop....." command to stop it and use the eraser mouse for a while
[02:25] <ryan_> bummer... is no one here?
[03:26] <Omsniffiscent> Can someone help me get this working? http://www.mangler.org/2010/02/mangler-jukebox-a-ventrilo-client-that-plays-mp3s/
[03:27] <Omsniffiscent> It says I need these additional libraries, but I don't know how to get them or check to see if I already have them.  libmpg123-dev libmpg123-0 libspeexdsp-dev libspeexdsp1
[03:28] <Omsniffiscent> Can someone tell me where the /trunk folder is located? Is that a Mangler thing or a system thing?
[03:30] <wastrel> hi dere
[03:30] <Omsniffiscent> Hello.
[03:30] <wastrel> dpkg -l | grep libmpg123
[03:30] <wastrel> or libspeedx
[03:32] <wastrel> or you could just    sudo apt-get intsall libmpg123-0 libmpg123-dev libspeex1 libspeex-dev
[03:33] <Omsniffiscent> cool. It's doing stuff.
[03:33] <Omsniffiscent> Now I need to find my Mangler folder somehow.
[03:33] <wastrel> what's a mangler folder
[03:34] <Omsniffiscent> Mangler is a program.
[03:34] <Omsniffiscent> I need to find where it is on my computer.
[03:35] <wastrel> you downloaded it?
[03:35] <Omsniffiscent> It's installed. Somewhere.
[03:35] <wastrel> how did you install it?
[03:35] <holstein> looks like theres a ppa
[03:35] <holstein> https://launchpad.net/~vincent-c/+archive/ppa/+build/2454856
[03:35] <Omsniffiscent> with a deb from their website.
[03:37] <wastrel> best way to find things imho is "sudo updatedb" then use locate
[03:37] <wastrel> so locate mangler
[03:37] <wastrel> updatedb may take a while
[03:49] <Omsniffiscent> cool. Found the folder I'm looking for. Now to compile... this'll be interesting.
[03:51] <frannyboo> im trying to install 11.04 on a netbook via flashdrive, but it doesn't seem to be working
[03:51] <holstein> frannyboo: you have the normal live iso image?
[03:52] <frannyboo> I can boot the USB stick fine, and when I select install ubuntu, goes through a bunch of text, then a command prompt type thing
[03:52] <frannyboo> I do, but no CD drive on my netbook
[03:53] <holstein> frannyboo: IF you have the normal live CD iso, you should be able to boot live, and get into the desktop
[03:53] <holstein> do that instead of selecting 'install'
[03:53] <holstein> im going to guess you have a graphics card that is not well supported
[03:54] <frannyboo> aah the graphics card makes sense, what about the busybox that it takes me to? (the command prompt thing)
[03:55] <holstein> depends
[03:55] <holstein> you could also have a bad image, or the stick is not working properly in some way
[03:57] <holstein> frannyboo: try booting the live CD image to the desktop and we'll go from there*
[04:00] <frannyboo> Trying that now
[04:03] <frannyboo> ok it still takes me to the busy box, not the ubuntu desktop
[04:03] <holstein> frannyboo: thats what you'll want to troubleshoot
[04:03] <holstein> when im installing, i want to see a live desktop before installing
[04:04] <holstein> i want to run some tests, and see how *all* of the hardware works
[04:04] <holstein> frannyboo: have you tried 10.04? what netbook is it?
[04:05] <frannyboo> dell inspiron mini, with win 7 starter
[04:05] <frannyboo> haven't tried 10.04, was thinking of maybe lubuntu?
[04:05] <holstein> doesnt matter what OS is on it... whats the #'s?
[04:05] <holstein> frannyboo: all the variants are going to have the same kernel for the most part
[04:06] <holstein> frannyboo: i put ubuntu on a dell mini 9 once... i downloaded the ubuntu image from dell actually
[04:06] <holstein> there was a tricky wifi card in there that they had already set up
[04:08] <frannyboo> holstien: CPU: intel atom @ 1.66 ghz HDD: 160GB
[04:08] <frannyboo> hmm might look into that
[04:09] <holstein> frannyboo: flip it over, and get some model #'s and google them
[04:09] <holstein> like for me, "ubuntu asus eeepc 1001p"
[04:09] <frannyboo> will do, thanks!!
[04:10] <holstein> sure, anytime
[04:10] <holstein> frannyboo: sometimes its not 'out of the box' easy
[04:14] <frannyboo> ok I found ubuntu on the dell site, am going to give that a try, will let you know!!
[04:15] <holstein> frannyboo: :)

[12:12] <DavLin> Trying to get 1920x1080@60Hz to work on an AMD E-350 Zacate, ati hd-6310, on 11.04 x64 with amd's v11.5 proprietary driver. All i get is 1920x1080@25 or 30Hz. Tried adding new modelines from cvt to xorg.conf and also "UseEDIDFreqs" "False" but still no change. Anyone have an idea or a pointer in some direction?
[12:13] <DavLin> btw, setup works fine with 1920x1080 at 60Hz with a windows os so the hardware is capable of it.
[12:26] <vu1kan> GM folks.  I'm attempting to set up internet connection sharing between two machines in my LAN.  The newer one has wifi(802.11G) and an onboard ethernet.

[12:58] <coalwater> vu1kan, i never really tried this under linux so i cant really help
[12:59] <vu1kan> the instructions i found @ ubuntu.com are pretty straightforward...what i'd like to know is why i get the 'file exists' error, or, how to accomplish <sudo ip route add default via 192.168.1.101>
[13:00] <vu1kan> in some other manner
[13:00] <vu1kan> . o O ( stupid touchy enter key )
[13:04] <DavLin> vu1kan: take a look in /etc/network/interfaces
[13:04] <DavLin> and it should be up not ip.. ie up route add [-net|-host] <host/net>/<mask> gw <host/IP> dev <Interface>
[13:04] <DavLin> "up route add [-net|-host] <host/net>/<mask> gw <host/IP> dev <Interface>"
[13:05] <vu1kan> ah...i bet that's it...a typo in the howto
[13:05] <DavLin> :)
[13:06] <vu1kan> tsk
[13:06] <vu1kan> "up: up command not found"
[13:06] <vu1kan> also "sudo: up:" returns the same
[13:07] <vu1kan> DavLin: hmm... /ect/network/interfaces contains "auto lo" "iface lo inet loopback" on the client
[13:09] <DavLin> sec..
[13:09] <DavLin> try looking at the examples here: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-add-permanent-static-routes-in-ubuntu.html

[13:11] <Gareth7015> Hi, can anyone here help with a wireless network problem?
[13:12] <vu1kan> Gareth7015: what's the problem?
[13:12] <Gareth7015> i'm running the newest Ubuntu distro on an Acer Aspire laptop and it keeps failing to connect :S
[13:12] <vu1kan> has the wifi ever connected under that distro?
[13:12] <Gareth7015> i only installed about an hour ago, so no
[13:13] <Gareth7015> but it does bring up the list of available networks n/p...
[13:13] <vu1kan> try hardwiring ethernet and running <sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade>
[13:13] <vu1kan> maybe you need a driver that wasn't on the disc
[13:13] <Gareth7015> is that a repository? i'm pretty new to this
[13:14] <vu1kan> that command updates your local repo list and upgrades all of your packages
[13:14] <vu1kan> if you just do the <sudo apt-get update> it should tell you if there are newer versions of installed packages
[13:15] <bioterror> !apt | Gareth7015
[13:15] <ubot2> Gareth7015: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Adept (KDE) or !KPackageKit (KDE)
[13:18] <Gareth7015> i tried that in the command line, but it didn't work :(
[13:18] <Gareth7015> gareth@ubuntu:~$ <sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade>
[13:18] <Gareth7015> bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
[13:18] <bioterror> without < >
[13:19] <Gareth7015> AM I missing something/ making newbie errors?
[13:19] <vu1kan> yea
[13:19] <Gareth7015> ahhh
[13:19] <Gareth7015> thanks, i'll go try it :)
[13:19] <vu1kan> sorry about that...in the irc channels command line input is usually inside <>, don't type those into the terminal
[13:19] <Gareth7015> n/p, i'll get used to this yet :)
[13:19] <vu1kan> totally forgot...it's been a while since i've logged on here
[13:21] <Gareth7015> Woah, that seems to have downloaded quite a bit in terms of updates lol
[13:21] <vu1kan> yea, if it's a fresh-off-the-disc install, it would
[13:21] <Gareth7015> yeah, it was straight off the 'Wubi' installer off the website.
[13:21] <vu1kan> once that finishes, log out, log back in and try your wifi
[13:22] <Gareth7015> hopefully will be able to get some work done lol, thanks for the help :)
[13:22] <vu1kan> so, DavLin, if you're still around, i'd wanna <route add -host 192.168.1.101 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth0>?
[13:23] <vu1kan> np, Gareth7015...hope that fixed ya up
[13:23] <Gareth7015> just while i have you, is there anything similar to Piriform's 'Speccy' for Ubuntu? it just gives you detailed system information...
[13:23] <vu1kan> hardinfo
[13:23] <Gareth7015> cool, i'll check that out
[13:23] <vu1kan> <sudo apt-get install hardinfo> should get it for ya
[13:24] <vu1kan> it shows up as 'system profiler and benchmarking utility' in tools under the ubuntu menu
[13:26] <vu1kan> (-Utility...just 'system profiler and benchmarking'...oy it's gonna be a long day, lol)
[13:27] <Gareth7015> haha, yeah you could say that :P
[13:28] <Gareth7015> i just got my laptop back from being repaired and they gave me the wrong monitor :|
[13:28] <vu1kan> weak sauce
[13:28] <Gareth7015> so i decided to fiddle around with the laptop and see if i could improve it any
[13:28] <Gareth7015> and it actually seems to be higher-res in Ubuntu instead of Windows 7...?
[13:29] <Gareth7015> need to get hardinfo to see if its all in my head lol
[13:33] <vu1kan> hey, hey...progress on my issue...<sudo route add -host 192.168.1.101 dev eth0> appears to have done what <sudo ip route add default via 192.xx> was supposed to do

[16:24] <lapaga> is there a difference between installing from the livecd (when you first boot) or the desktop icon?
[16:25] <coalwater> nope
[16:26] <coalwater> u mean the first choice (try or install) and the actual install link that is placed on the desktop
[16:26] <coalwater> it's the same, but i prefer the desktop icon , cause i could waste time on firefox or something while installing
[16:26] <lapaga> yes that is what i mean
[16:27] <lapaga> thanks
[16:31] <wastrel> i like installing
[16:32] <charlie-tca> The only time it seems to matter is if you need a special connection setup for wireless
[16:33] <charlie-tca> That's easier from the live desktop than the install only
[16:36] <lapaga> i was wondering because I have a limited ram system (256 M) and it is using some swap already

[18:01] <NewUserPlzHelpMe> Hello everyone!
[18:02] <coalwater> that was fast
[18:13] <philipballew> NewUserPlzHelpMe hello
[18:19] <lapaga> can one post multi line questions or will that be considered flooding? just do not want to type several lines and get booted.
[18:42] <lapaga> I have a computer that the bios will only give the option to one hd.  My first hd has WinXP on it and will be installing Xubuntu on the second hd...
[18:43] <lapaga> if I put grub on the second hd will it be able to boot both?
[18:45] <lapaga> little missed word...will only give the option to boot one hd.
[18:48] <coalwater> no lapaga , it doesn't work like that
[18:48] <coalwater> you need the xubuntu installation to update the first boot loader
[18:49] <coalwater> and keep the first hard disk as primary boot
[18:50] <coalwater> don't ask me how, cause i don't think i know the answer to that question, it should be done automatically if you are installing while both harddisks connected
[18:50] <lapaga> so when I install grub do I tell it to install to sda (XP) or sdb(Xubuntu)?
[18:50] <charlie-tca> lapaga: installing grub on the first drive should allow it to decide to boot the second, even if the bios didn't
[18:51] <charlie-tca> install it to sda
[18:51] <bioterror> sda
[18:51] <lapaga> won't that overwrite the XP bootloader?
[18:51] <bioterror> no sda1, no sda2,just sda
[18:51] <bioterror> lapaga, no
[18:52] <bioterror> grub loads before windows chainloader
[18:52] <coalwater> even if it overwrites it, grub will still recognize windows and will give u an option to boot it
[18:52] <bioterror> ?
[18:52] <coalwater> i think :D
[18:52] <coalwater> lol
[18:52] <coalwater> that's what it did to me
[18:53] <lapaga> this is the only thing that has stopped me from installing
[18:53] <coalwater> i usually just remove the windows boot loader, i prefer grub :D
[18:54] <lapaga> so grub will still write the boot files to sdb but put something into mbr ? of sda?
[18:55] <lapaga> or am I all wrong in my thinking
[18:55] <bioterror> if it feels so difficult, be a man and install over XP ;)
[18:56] <lapaga> probably not the best option:)
[19:13] <lapaga> one other question...do I put a boot flag on sdb ?
[19:25] <charlie-tca> nope
[20:31] <Who[ares> hello everyone ! I'm trying to get help on my Ubuntu 11.04 installation. I used Wubi and now, when I reboot my PC, the dual-boot doesn't appear ... Does anyone know why ?
[20:31] <holstein> Who[ares: lets start with what appears?
[20:32] <Who[ares> pretty much nothing ... it goes to win xp directly
[20:32] <holstein> i would look in the winxp boot loader thing
[20:32] <holstein> *i forget what thats called
[20:32] <Who[ares> boot.ini
[20:32] <Who[ares> I did and there's nothing in there
[20:33] <Who[ares> (nothing about ubuntu at least ) ...
[20:33] <holstein> Who[ares: i would say something failed
[20:33] <Who[ares> ;-)
[20:33] <Who[ares> I certainly know that .... but what and how to fix it ?
[20:33] <holstein> do you see the entry in add-remove programs?
[20:34] <Who[ares> yep
[20:34] <holstein> Who[ares: i would uninstall, and try again
[20:34] <holstein> maybe double check the image md5 sum
[20:34] <Who[ares> I tried to find the log file and see what happened but I couldn't ...
[20:34] <Who[ares> I re-installed about 5 times
[20:35] <holstein> you might need to edit that boot.ini manually somehow
[20:35] <holstein> Who[ares: did you try 10.04?
=== yofel_ is now known as yofel
[20:35] <Who[ares> nope, haven't tried 10.04 ...
[20:36] <holstein> thats an option... also, just dual booting, which is always going to be preffered
[20:38] <Who[ares> I think I'll try 10.04 ... thanks man
[20:39] <holstein> Who[ares: sure, enjoy :)
[20:41] <Who[ares> is there such a big diff between 10.04 and 11.04 ?
[20:41] <holstein> Who[ares: yeah
[20:43] <Who[ares> damn :(
[20:43] <holstein> the look and feel has changed since 10.04, now 11.04 is running the unity instead of gnome. 10.04 is an LTS (long term support) so it will be supported for 3+years instead of 18 months
[20:43] <Who[ares> is it easy to upgrade from 10.04 to 11.04 &
[20:43] <Who[ares> ?
[20:44] <Who[ares> 'cause if it is, I could simply upgrade afterward
[20:45] <holstein> Who[ares: you wouldnt want to do that
[20:45] <Who[ares> how come ?
[20:45] <holstein> you would choose to install and run the LTS verion (10.04), or just go ahead and use the latest (11.04)
[20:45] <Who[ares> I wish I could use 11.04 but the damn installation doesn't work :S
[20:46] <holstein> Who[ares: the biggest reason is that it would take the computer about 16 hours to do that, assuming you have a decent internet connection
[20:46] <holstein> Who[ares: does 11.04 run live?
[20:46] <Who[ares> what do you mean ?
[20:46] <holstein> try burning a few CD's, 10.04 and 11.04
[20:46] <holstein> and dont install, just run them live, from the CD... without installing
[20:46] <holstein> then, you can get an idea of how well your hardware is supported
[20:47] <holstein> ALSO, if you have the ram to spare, you can always just install virtual box or VM ware on windows, and run ubuntu in there

[21:52] <gmulak> Video help - please.  I have a video CD from Costco off of my Video camera.  What programs do I need to download into Ubuntu to edit it?
[21:52] <gmulak> It plays on my DVD player....
[21:53] <holstein> gmulak: theres a bunch really
[21:53] <holstein> and they all do different things.. ive heard open shot is easy-ish
[21:53] <holstein> i like pitivi
[21:53] <gmulak> OK - thanks.  Just import it and then?
[21:54] <gmulak> Does it have soud editing capability?
[21:54] <holstein> gmulak: learn how to edit video ;)
[21:54] <holstein> i think its important to realize that what you are asking to do is *not* trivial
[21:54] <holstein> and is going to take some time to learn how to get even mediocre results
[21:55] <holstein> *that being said, its totally doable
[21:55] <gmulak> Thank you for that.  I realize that and don't even know where to start.  I have to do it for an outreach thing for the church and I am thrown into it....
[21:55] <holstein> also, check out http://jaycut.com/
[21:55] <gmulak> I know.  I will start with pitivi and see what I need to learn I guess.  Thanks
[21:56] <gmulak> OK - I'll check those out.  Thank you much
[21:56] <holstein> gmulak: sure, check out #opensourcemusicians and #ubuntustudio as well
[21:56] <gmulak> OK - will do
[21:56] <holstein> lots of the guys in opensourcemusicians have some video experience
