| RandBrittain | Whenever my mouse cursor gets near the bottom-right corner of the screen, it freezes for a few seconds (maverick 64-bit, Catalyst 11.5). Why would this be happening? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| p01s0n | is it the graphics driver problem?how to fix tht screen and install | 00:00 |
| Juest | RandBrittain: are you using compiz? maybe compiz hangs the system because of GPU load | 00:00 |
| p01s0n | help plz :| | 00:00 |
| BrainVirus | Does anybody know anything about sarg and how to install it? Namely, I am having issues getting the webinterface working for it i.e. viewing reports | 00:01 |
| captainjamie | shomon, if you want to completely switch, run sudo apt-get remove lubuntu-desktop I think. | 00:01 |
| shomon | captainjamie: ok thanks | 00:01 |
| captainjamie | p01s0n, have you enabled the restricted drivers? | 00:01 |
| p01s0n | i havent enabled or disables anything | 00:02 |
| p01s0n | i tried installing thru cd and pendrive.same thing happens | 00:02 |
| p01s0n | i tried 'Install' as well as live..still the same thing | 00:02 |
| captainjamie | type additional drivers into search please | 00:02 |
| captainjamie | in natty anyway | 00:02 |
| p01s0n | i'm sorry..i'm new into these stuff :) i didnt understand what u said | 00:03 |
| FisheDuJour | eipi-1: I'm rebooting with the switch off. | 00:03 |
| mattk | what is the apt-get command to install the server and get rid of the desktop | 00:03 |
| RandBrittain | Juest: I don't think I have compiz installed. It doesn't look like it. | 00:03 |
| captainjamie | p01s0n, start the program called additional drivers. look for it in the application menu. | 00:04 |
| RandBrittain | Hm, I guess it is installed. Let me look at it. | 00:04 |
| FisheDuJour | let's try this again | 00:04 |
| RandBrittain | Hm, but turning the desktop down to "no effects" doesn't stop the issue. | 00:04 |
| p01s0n | but for that i have to login right.I cant even install or start the ubuntu live.After the ubuntu splash screen it hangs and shows that weird screen..the one like in the image | 00:04 |
| eipi-1 | FisheDuJour, start tail command first and wait some time after every action. | 00:05 |
| auk | tanath, regarding an app that changes your uid, do you know if the gnome user management utility will take care of file ownership permissions? | 00:05 |
| captainjamie | right, see. | 00:05 |

| w30 | How do I upgrade to Natty without Unity? | 00:05 |
| captainjamie | can you start in safe mode? | 00:06 |
| Juest | RandBrittain: welll, maybe uninstalling compiz? | 00:06 |
| captainjamie | w30, you can choose the old interface on login | 00:06 |
| p01s0n | how to do that? | 00:06 |
| RandBrittain | Oh, here it is: it's a Catalyst issue. No fix for it atm. :( | 00:06 |
| captainjamie | p01s0n, isn't it in the grub menu? | 00:07 |
| w30 | captainjamie, will that get me Compiz without Unity? | 00:07 |
| * RandBrittain thanks all present. | 00:07 | |
| captainjamie | w30, i think so. you'll still have unity but it wont be used... if that makes sense | 00:07 |
| w30 | captainjamie, ok, thanks | 00:08 |

| raoult1 | hi | 00:09 |
| FisheDuJour | eipi-1: Okay, I killed nm-applet. Now what? | 00:09 |
| captainjamie | maybe try a live USB made with unetbootin | 00:09 |
| p01s0n | if there is anyway to install or start live in safe mode can u suggest that.Someway to start it without using the graphic card,I guesss its my nvidia GTS 360m that is causing the problem | 00:09 |
| tanath | auk, sorry, went afk. i think there is one that does, but it's been a while | 00:09 |
| p01s0n | i havent tried live usb with unetbootin but i tried with universal usb installer and linux creator.Both doesnt help | 00:10 |
| tanath | auk, it was a gnome app though, yes | 00:10 |
| PL4Y3R | tanath:what other linux system have u used besides ubuntu | 00:10 |
| eipi-1 | FisheDuJour, start wicd from console | 00:10 |
| captainjamie | hmm... and a live dvd doesn't work either? | 00:10 |
| p01s0n | i have the image burned to cd.Tried and doesnt work | 00:10 |
| auk | tanath, from googling it seems the default user admin app won't do that | 00:11 |
| captainjamie | gosh, I really don't know. | 00:11 |
| spydmobile | can someone direct me to a channel for ubuntu server? | 00:11 |
| FisheDuJour | eipi-1: I'm rebooting with the switch off. | 00:11 |
| p01s0n | thought it was corrupt download but the md5 hash is same and even then i tried force rechecking in utorrent.Its the same | 00:11 |
| FisheDuJour | Ignore that please | 00:11 |
| p01s0n | :( its ok thank anyways captainjamie | 00:11 |
| auk | tanath, in any case, any idea if changing the ownership of all a user's files *while logged in to a desktop environment* will cause problems? | 00:11 |
| tanath | PL4Y3R, debian, suse, knoppix and some variants, a couple distros that i don't think exist anymore... pinguy... i don't recall all of them | 00:11 |
| captainjamie | I'm sorry I'm not more help. I'm fairly new myself (1 year) and it is 10 past midnight! | 00:11 |
| FisheDuJour | eipi-1: I'm rebooting with the switch off. | 00:11 |
| raoult1 | how can I lauch config compiz by de console | 00:11 |
| p01s0n | its 4am here.didnt sleep till npw :( | 00:12 |
| auk | (to avoid the encryption prob, where i can't change them from another sudo-er account | 00:12 |
| tanath | auk, that could cause some things to crash | 00:12 |
| PL4Y3R | tamath:i'm think bout puting puppy on one of my older pc an imac g3 u hink it would work | 00:12 |
| tanath | auk, best to reboot to single user mode or something | 00:12 |
| p01s0n | just trying to figure it out | 00:12 |
| captainjamie | I hope someone else knows. good luck, maybe try Linux Mint until you can get it working? | 00:13 |
| tanath | PL4Y3R, possibly. can't say from experience | 00:13 |
| captainjamie | That's nearly the same... | 00:13 |
| auk | tanath, is crash all? i'm fine as long as there is no file damage... "single user mode"? (i shall look up) | 00:13 |
| p01s0n | if you find out the solution or if u know someone that does please let me know of it throught ubuntu forum ok.here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1762626 | 00:13 |
| p01s0n | ok then i'll try that :) thanks | 00:13 |
| captainjamie | ok, good night! | 00:13 |
| tanath | auk, well some apps may need config changes. i can't really speak about probs resulting from encrypted partitions specifically | 00:13 |
| FisheDuJour | eipi-1: Having trouble with phone. | 00:14 |
| tanath | auk, single user mode is what you get when you choose 'recovery' mode at grub | 00:14 |
| tanath | auk, boot to root prompt | 00:14 |
| Juest | auk: or get into it by typing sudo init 1 | 00:14 |

| eipi-1 | FisheDuJour, thought so | 00:15 |
| eipi-1 | what about a lan connection for your computer, maybe? | 00:16 |
| tanath | PL4Y3R, G5 is pretty old, IIRC. but even current linux should be able to handle old system requirements. you'll just want to use a lightweight environment | 00:16 |
| PL4Y3R | the g5 itsnt tht old | 00:16 |
| eipi-1 | FisheDuJour, what about a lan connection for your computer. possible? | 00:17 |
| mattk | Is there a way to access a terminal from grub? | 00:17 |
| tanath | PL4Y3R, lxde is fairly popular. fluxbox, blackbox, etc., are even more lightweight. might want to have a look at icewm | 00:17 |
| PL4Y3R | Tanath:g5 isnt that old the g4 is old and the g3 is even older | 00:17 |
| tanath | PL4Y3R, been a while since i looked at mac models too :P | 00:17 |
| tanath | PL4Y3R, last time i looked at a G-anything was years ago | 00:18 |

| ThomasB2k | Greetings! In what file is the custom banshee metadata I have stored? | 00:33 |
| ubuntuCEO | r0fs3ck5, i downloaded and use the mac os driver from an australia site although i bought in canada to make it work under 8.04 | 00:33 |

| r0fs3ck5 | r0fs3ck5: you could try a driver for a similar model. | 00:52 |
| mattk | eipi-1: only when I use the liveusb | 00:52 |
| sakuragno | is there anyone that just even read me? pls ^^ | 00:52 |
| r0fs3ck5 | ubuntuCEO: you could try a driver for a similar model. | 00:52 |
| scottmaccal | HelloWorld321: Applications --> Accessories --> Terminal -- sudo apt-get update -- sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 00:52 |
| SegFaultAX | robin0800: Ah, so it's basically just a crap ton of extensions and customizations that run on top of gnome. | 00:52 |
| ubuntuCEO | r0fs3ck5, should i try the driver for osx?? | 00:52 |
| SegFaultAX | robin0800: Like a highly customized gnome environment almost. | 00:52 |
| robin0800 | SegFaultAX, yes | 00:52 |
| HelloWorld321 | tx Scott ... trying .... | 00:52 |
| tanath | losty, something wrong with 10.10? | 00:52 |
| ubuntuCEO | r0fs3ck5, i think if i remember (3yrs ago) it works | 00:52 |
| SegFaultAX | robin0800: Thanks mate. Appreciate your guidance. | 00:53 |
| r0fs3ck5 | ubuntuCEO: you could give it a go but you may find it needs some extra configuration. | 00:53 |
| eipi-1 | mattk, do you see a grub boot menu on startup? if not hold down shift key while booting | 00:53 |
| losty | <tanath> nope, just wondering if which version to stick to until LTS next year | 00:53 |
| mattk | eipi-1: no. I can't even see the bios screen | 00:53 |
| tanath | losty, methinks 10.10 is best so far | 00:54 |
| eipi-1 | FisheDuJour, any results on that? | 00:54 |
| eipi-1 | mattk, oh :/ wait. you DO have terminal with live boot from usb but no bios screen?? | 00:54 |
| mattk | eipi-1: yeah. Weird huh. | 00:55 |
| losty | nice one, im having problems getting my web cam to work, apart from that all seems ok on 11.04 <tanath> | 00:55 |
| b3gott3n | i was off the screen | 00:55 |
| === nameless_1 is now known as sickn3ss | ||
| b3gott3n | did you say anything? | 00:55 |
| losty | one other seems to be turning off bluetooth by default, which i cant seem to figure out | 00:55 |
| b3gott3n | were you able to fix it? | 00:55 |
| eipi-1 | mattk, strangest thing i've ever heard... | 00:55 |
| Alotesnivek | Nope, i was waiting on you. and no, nothing yet | 00:55 |
| b3gott3n | sorry | 00:56 |
| b3gott3n | it shows volume is up and shows the device? | 00:56 |
| === sickn3ss is now known as bloodymonk | ||
| eipi-1 | mattk, is the ubuntu version of your install the same as the liveusb? | 00:56 |
| Alotesnivek | No, it's not showing the device | 00:56 |
| === mike is now known as Guest36095 | ||
| b3gott3n | ah ok | 00:56 |
| tanath | losty, prob? | 00:56 |
| b3gott3n | this is the problem | 00:56 |
| mattk | eipi-1: yeah. I used ubiquity through ssh to install it | 00:56 |
| === bloodymonk is now known as bleedingmonk | ||
| Alotesnivek | KK | 00:57 |
| tanath | losty, which release(s) doesn't it work on? | 00:57 |
| mattk | eipi-1: I want to install server but this is the only live usb that I've been able to get to work | 00:57 |
| FisheDuJour | eipi-1: Going back to rebooted IRC. | 00:57 |
| losty | im on 11.04. havent tried it on any other <tanath> | 00:57 |
| Gomaaz | somebody with yaboot experience here :/? | 00:57 |
| losty | im using a sony laptop VGN SZ5MN model, i have the windows drivers but cant seem to get it to work <tanath> | 00:58 |
| nom_mon | hello | 00:58 |
| Firefishe | eipi-1: Well, I dunno... | 00:58 |
| nom_mon | i have a few ubuntu q's | 00:58 |
| Phong_ | hi guys, is wine realy good ? | 00:58 |
| tanath | losty, what app you using? | 00:58 |
| r0fs3ck5 | ubuntuCEO: maybe try this: https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=10150098879386924 | 00:58 |
| jamiewan | ! ask | nom_mon | 00:58 |
| ubottu | nom_mon: 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. :-) | 00:58 |
| Firefishe | eipi-1: I had to reboot, and tried wicd-client to connect, but although it listed the same ssid's available as nm-applet, it wouldn't connect to them. | 00:59 |
| nom_mon | thanks | 00:59 |
| losty | <tanath> eh?? not sure what you mean by app.. but anything, like cheese or skype, or even web site to detect cam, its doesnt seem to pick it up | 00:59 |
| Firefishe | eipi-1: So I reinitialized nm-applet, and here we are. | 00:59 |
| mattk | eipi-1: I can remote into the xp partition but that's about it | 00:59 |
| losty | <tanath> ive tried system > administration > additional drivers, but it doesnt pick up anything | 00:59 |
| losty | only display drivers | 01:00 |
| eipi-1 | Firefishe, huh? what does tail/wicd say when trying to connect via wicd? | 01:00 |
| nom_mon | When i open up ubuntu 11.04 i log in, and it shows blank except the background and mouse. using wubi on windows 7 | 01:00 |
| b3gott3n | lshw -c sound | 01:00 |
| Firefishe | eipi-1: just a sec | 01:00 |
| nom_mon | voice | 01:01 |
| r0fs3ck5 | ubuntuCEO: and the only place I could find your drivers is here: http://www.sattech.us/forums/index.php?topic=13858.msg78567 | 01:01 |
| eipi-1 | mattk, 'remote into xp partition'? means booting windows and remoting to that? | 01:01 |
| mattk | eipi-1: yeah | 01:01 |
| nom_mon | hello> | 01:01 |
| nom_mon | ?* | 01:01 |
| Alotesnivek | says u should run as a super user, wtf ever that means, but i have a list of info now | 01:01 |
| mattk | eipi-1: I can't see the screen. Just adjust grub to boot xp by default and then remote in from win7 | 01:02 |
| MagicJ | my system tells me that I have 17 packages that can be upgraded etc, every time I log on. It comes from the mnotd file but if I clear it it comes back. Howveer, when I run apt-get upgrade there is nothing done - what's happening here | 01:02 |
| jamiewan | nom_mon, just have to be patient and ask question every 5 or 10 mins if noone answers | 01:02 |
| nom_mon | kk thanks sorry for being impatient | 01:02 |
| ubuntuCEO | r0fs3ck5, thx, i will try the fb page at home later | 01:02 |
| b3gott3n | you see your sound card? | 01:02 |
| tanath | losty, yeah that's for video drivers. cheese is ok but there's other apps for webcams | 01:02 |
| Alotesnivek | Yeah, | 01:02 |
| b3gott3n | aslamixer | 01:02 |
| b3gott3n | is you mic muted? | 01:02 |
| r0fs3ck5 | ubuntuCEO: I suggest you grab the linux drivers instead of the osx ones. | 01:03 |
| jamiewan | Alotesnivek, super user means put" sudo " in fromt of your command | 01:03 |
| Alotesnivek | ohh okay | 01:03 |
| eipi-1 | mattk, pretty interesting setup. i have to ask again: you actually see a terminal on the screen of that machine with a liveusb ubuntu? | 01:03 |
| losty | <tanath> cheese doesn't even pick it up.. not sure if im missing a trick | 01:03 |
| jamiewan | it makes you the root user for a short period of time | 01:03 |
| tanath | losty, seen this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam | 01:03 |
| Firefishe | k | 01:03 |
| b3gott3n | is your mic muted? | 01:04 |
| jamiewan | losty, ive found that reinstalling gstreamer fixes my webcam | 01:04 |
| ubuntuCEO | the australia page : http://support-au.canon.com.au/EN/search?v%3aproject=ABS-EN&binning-state=model%3d%3dPIXMA%20MP210%0Amenu%3d%3dDownload%0Aos%3d%3dLinux& PAGE NOT FOUND ! | 01:04 |
| Alotesnivek | No, my mic is not muted. | 01:04 |
| nom_mon | When i open up ubuntu 11.04 i log in, and it shows blank except the background and mouse. using wubi on windows 7 | 01:04 |
| mattk | eipi-1: yeah. I can see the ubuntu load screen too. When it happened I almost crapped my pants. I don't know what's wrong with it. | 01:04 |
| Phong_ | i have question: why can't they make WINE to run 100% to run pc softwares? | 01:04 |
| losty | <tanath> yea tried it, thats where i got cheese from | 01:04 |
| Phong_ | is that complicated? | 01:04 |
| tanath | losty, http://community.linuxmint.com/hardware/view/39 | 01:05 |
| Firefishe | eipi-1: Here's the tail/wicd output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/616226/ | 01:05 |
| eipi-1 | mattk, what version of ubuntu is that liveusb? natty? 32/64bit? desktop/server/alternate? | 01:05 |
| LubuntuGuy | hello.. is anyone here using lxde ? | 01:05 |
| klown | why would you want to run every windows program in linux, kind of defeats the purpose of running linux. | 01:06 |
| b3gott3n | i don't think you answered my question... can you get the mic to work outside of skype? | 01:06 |
| losty | jamiewan thanks, umm.. how do i reinstall gstreamer? (sorry, still a complete noob) | 01:06 |
| Alotesnivek | No, I cannot get the mic to work on anything. | 01:06 |
| klown | Alotesnivek, what kind of mic? | 01:06 |
| losty | tanath i tried those drivers, it installed, but cheese wont pick up.. :( | 01:06 |
| losty | not sure if its for mint only | 01:06 |
| mattk | eipi-1: natty 32 desktop | 01:07 |
| losty | but looked to be working for debian | 01:07 |
| Alotesnivek | Andrea - anti-noise NC-95 | 01:07 |
| tanath | losty, nah, mint is based on ubuntu | 01:07 |
| tanath | IIRC | 01:07 |
| w30 | Phong_, because Steve Ballmer won't tell the wine people how so they have to figure it out on their own | 01:07 |
| jamiewan | losty, try thru synaptic package manager and type gstreamer into search bar | 01:07 |
| klown | Alotesnivek, sorry, I should have been more specifc. USB? | 01:07 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | I am trying to figure out how to troubleshoot a borked grub .97 on 9.04 that just hangs at the Grub loading, please wait screen. Its a VM disk and has only 2 partitions and they are in the correct order. Tried using a live CD to chroot to upgrade it to grub 2 (grub-pc) but that hangs on Generating Core.img. I am running out of ideas | 01:07 |
| jamiewan | see if its installed | 01:07 |
| Alotesnivek | No, Audio jack. Sorry. | 01:07 |
| losty | thanks jamiewan il give that a shot | 01:07 |

| jamiewan | oh | 01:08 |
| jamiewan | is it built in or usb? | 01:08 |
| losty | its built in | 01:08 |
| klown | Alotesnivek, are exernal speakers working? | 01:08 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | Not sure if this is a good place to ask grub questions | 01:08 |
| jamiewan | losty, what type computer | 01:08 |
| nom_mon | When i open up ubuntu 11.04 and log in, it shows blank except the background and mouse. using wubi on windows 7 | 01:09 |
| Alotesnivek | Yes, they work fine. Even the speakers on the mic headset work fine. Just the mic doesnt work. | 01:09 |
| losty | im using a sony laptop VGN SZ5MN model | 01:09 |
| yassine_hell_ | anyone? | 01:09 |
| eipi-1 | mattk, theres somthing called chroot to change grub settings on another install, but i'm no expert in that. | 01:09 |
| Firefishe | eipi-1: 'fraid not. When I brought it up, it killed nm-applet, but it still showed the connection. I disconnected it, then tried to reconnect using wicd-client. No dice. Guess nm-applet's the bomb for now. | 01:09 |
| klown | Alotesnivek, sounds like your mic is muted to me. | 01:09 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | eipi-1, yah, I have been down that path without any luck | 01:09 |
| mattk | eipi-1: yeah I did that. Where is the menu.list located or does grub not work that way anymore? | 01:10 |
| Alotesnivek | Well I don't have it muted on anything. Nor is it showing up any longer within the audio preferences. | 01:10 |
| * sabiancrash_cgx didn't notice there was two grub conversations going | 01:10 | |
| sabiancrash_cgx | mattk, you having grub issues as well? | 01:11 |
| mattk | not really but I want to change the default to xp | 01:11 |
| Raikia | torsthaldo, | 01:11 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | ahh, piece of cake | 01:12 |
| Raikia | Sorry, didn't mean to say that | 01:12 |
| eipi-1 | mattk, grub2 is not working with menu.lst anymore. it generates a grub.cfg that should not be changed. its configured over /etc/default/grub | 01:12 |
| mattk | eipi-1: so how do I change the list of OS's? | 01:13 |
| b3gott3n | in skype under options | 01:13 |
| b3gott3n | what driver does it say is the input? | 01:13 |
| jamiewan | losty, whats the output from lspci look for webcam there, pastebin the output | 01:13 |
| Alotesnivek | Under skype, it just says that i'm using pulse audio, and to refer to it's options. | 01:13 |
| jadams | I've got some issues with my graphics driver on my laptop | 01:13 |
| jamiewan | losty, sorry dmesg not lspci | 01:14 |
| jadams | it's an nvidia card. It won't resume from suspend, and in a console/vim it will frequently fail to update tiles of the screen | 01:14 |
| eipi-1 | Firefishe, there is an option to remove network-manager, to make sure it makes no trouble with wicd, but it may result in no working nm and you had to manually configure wpa_supplicant, which is a pain :/ | 01:14 |
| jadams | haven't ever seen that error anywhere but in a gnome-terminal | 01:14 |
| losty | jamiewan sorry to be a pain, whats the command i type into terminal? | 01:14 |
| jadams | I'm pretty confused | 01:14 |
| jamiewan | losty, dmesg | 01:14 |
| jamiewan | and look for an entry for your camera | 01:14 |
| r0fs3ck5 | ubuntuCEO: there are the instructions from that fb link http://paste.ubuntu.com/616231/ | 01:15 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | mattk, did you check out this : http://www.joewein.net/blog/2009/11/28/fix-windows-as-default-boot-on-ubuntu-9-10-with-grub2-loader/ | 01:15 |
| klown | Alotesnivek, which version of ubuntu are you running? | 01:15 |
| losty | thanks jamiewan doing now | 01:15 |
| Alotesnivek | Klown, Natty, 11.04 | 01:15 |
| b3gott3n | ok what is pulse audio? | 01:15 |
| b3gott3n | do you know? | 01:15 |
| eipi-1 | mattk, well thats another place (i dont like that new configuration of grub2) but there is still the problem that the final update grub only works for the actual installation. mom | 01:16 |
| jamiewan | losty, there will be lots of stuff but look it over and try find your camera there | 01:16 |
| Alotesnivek | Pulse Audio is the audio controller that comes with natty, as far as i know. | 01:16 |
| Firefishe | eipi-1: Yes, I've heard of that. I'm going to stick with nm-applet, continue to suppress kde's own nm, and use the underlying gnome connection scheme. I'm hoping future releases will deal with this. Future kernel release may deal with this issue, although I'll probably have another computer by then. | 01:16 |
| Huene_ | Does Natty periodically search for wireless networks while it's connected to one? I seem to be having lag spikes that suggest something like that is hapening | 01:16 |
| Huene_ | happening | 01:16 |
| b3gott3n | do you want to fix it or remove it? | 01:16 |
| mattk | eipi-1: I'll check that out | 01:17 |
| dasilentprince | exit | 01:17 |
| Huene_ | are you asking me or someone else b3gott3n? | 01:17 |
| Alotesnivek | I would prefer to fix it, without pulse audio, i would have no sound at all. | 01:17 |
| w30 | jadams, I had problems like that when using compiz; I ran compiz --indirect-rendering and that fixed it. you can do that by editing your start compiz configuration or use Fusion Compiz options | 01:17 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | ahh, there is a grub channel, I will attempt to ask my question there | 01:17 |
| b3gott3n | you'd still have sound | 01:18 |
| eipi-1 | Firefishe, didn't you say u have Lucid with some .32 kernel? maybe give mainline kernel or natty a shot. for example try some natty live system booting with turned off KS? | 01:18 |
| b3gott3n | its buggy though | 01:18 |
| jadams | w30, I'm using gnome-shell but perhaps something similar can happen there | 01:18 |
| b3gott3n | http://www.jeffsplace.net/node/12 | 01:18 |
| b3gott3n | rtfm | 01:18 |
| b3gott3n | see what you think | 01:18 |
| r0fs3ck5 | Alotesnivek: what is your sound device? | 01:18 |
| Firefishe | eipi-1: That sounds like a good deal. I'll give it a go in the near future. | 01:18 |
| Alotesnivek | Intekl, HD audio controller? | 01:19 |
| Alotesnivek | Intel * | 01:19 |
| eipi-1 | Firefishe, wish you luck | 01:19 |
| Firefishe | eipi-1: I appreciate the fun today. I'm gonna head out and play around the net for a while. :) | 01:19 |
| r0fs3ck5 | Alotesnivek: should be supported. | 01:19 |
| Firefishe | eipi-1: Thanks, I appreciate it. | 01:19 |
| pvthodson | later | 01:19 |
| w30 | jadams, are you using Unity? | 01:19 |
| Firefishe | bye for now | 01:19 |
| Alotesnivek | I assume, everything was working fine, then it stopped. I don't know.... Just rather annoying. | 01:20 |
| losty | jamiewan ive checked the output, cant seem to locate cam | 01:20 |
| r0fs3ck5 | Alotesnivek: what model headset do you have? | 01:20 |
| jadams | w30, no, I'm using gnome-shell / gnome3 | 01:20 |
| yassine_hell_ | can anyone help me with installing a progrm? | 01:20 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: yeah | 01:20 |
| losty | its showing most of the other devices but not that, is there something in particular to look for jamiewan? | 01:20 |
| pvthodson | what are you trying to install | 01:20 |
| Alotesnivek | Andrea, Anti-Noise NC-95 | 01:20 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian hi :) , im trying to install hamachi | 01:20 |
| Huene_ | Does Natty automatically check for new wireless networks while it's connected to one and can I turn it off? | 01:20 |
| w30 | jadams, all right I gotsha now *smile* | 01:21 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: link please? | 01:21 |
| r0fs3ck5 | Alotesnivek: and your recording device does not show up in pulse-audio configuration? | 01:21 |
| pvthodson | there's some pretty good guide online for that even logmein's website has a decent how to | 01:21 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian http://paste.ubuntu.com/616235/ | 01:21 |
| eipi-1 | mattk, you still have that website i posted in the first place? go to your install partition in /etc/default/grub (from your liveusb) and change that line (named on the page) | 01:21 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian and to download the file : https://secure.logmein.com/US/labs/ | 01:21 |
| losty | http://paste.ubuntu.com/616234/ jamiewan thats the pastebin if its helps | 01:21 |
| Alotesnivek | Nope, it sure doesnt. | 01:21 |
| jamiewan | losty, try this in terminal dmesg | grep -i uvc | 01:22 |
| r0fs3ck5 | Alotesnivek: nothing at all under the 'input' tab? | 01:22 |
| jamiewan | looking more precisely that way | 01:22 |
| Alotesnivek | Nope, nothing. | 01:22 |
| jamiewan | want to see uvc video somewhere | 01:22 |
| mattk | eipi-1: I'm not sure what line I should use though since I can't see grub at the beginning | 01:22 |
| losty | ok, will | 01:22 |
| losty | will do* | 01:22 |
| Alotesnivek | Which is odd because before it showed an internal mic (which doesnt work anyways) as well as my external mic. Now nothing. | 01:22 |
| Huene_ | is there a better place to ask about wireless natty behavior? | 01:22 |
| w30 | jadams, my problem had to do with the advanced Nvidia 3d features and nothing to do with your case it seems, shrug. | 01:22 |
| semitones | I'm having trouble booting into ubuntu -- is anyone willing to check out a few pictures I took of the screen (once I get them uploaded) | 01:23 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: k hang on | 01:23 |
| pteague | hmm... in the middle of running `aptitude safe-upgrade` & it was attempting to stop bind9 & then i get the message "rndc: connect failed: 127.0.0.1#953: connection refused" :( | 01:23 |
| b3gott3n | its pulse audio | 01:23 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian take your time | 01:23 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: Did you grab the .deb ?? | 01:23 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: 32 vs. 64 bit ? | 01:23 |
| Alotesnivek | So drop pulse and install something else? | 01:23 |
| losty | it found something i think.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/616236/ thats the copy jamiewan | 01:24 |
| jawnah | pteague, are you sure that your bind daemon was running beforehand? | 01:24 |
| r0fs3ck5 | Alotesnivek: that would not be wise | 01:24 |
| pteague | jawnah, no idea, but it's not continuing past that in the `aptitude safe-upgrade` | 01:24 |
| Alotesnivek | Any idea's on what to intsall | 01:24 |
| jawnah | try to start bind and see if it starts up | 01:25 |
| jagas | hey guys anybody here having problems with ati proprietary drivers and compiz? | 01:25 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: You there? | 01:25 |
| r0fs3ck5 | Alotesnivek: sudo apt-get install padevchooser | 01:25 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | yassine_hell_ : Not sure what they are referring to but thought I would point out that it says "Please make sure you have the LSB 3.0 (or above) package installed prior to attempt installing the product." | 01:25 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian yea | 01:25 |
| robin0800 | b3gott3n, try alsamixer in a terminal pulse audio is built on top of this | 01:25 |
| Skunkwaffle | So Ubuntu (Lucid) keeps trying to remove my network-manager. Anyone have any idea why that is? | 01:25 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian i got the .deb file 32 | 01:25 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: You have 32 bit machine right | 01:25 |
| edbian | ? | 01:25 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian yep | 01:26 |
| yassine_hell_ | sabiancrash_cgx so i should download this LSB 3.0 ? | 01:26 |
| jamiewan | ok so its picking up your camera, i'd say its a driver issue, probably go to sony site, punch in computer details or google it adding ubuntu to see if any drivers about for it | 01:26 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: These are really easy to install. You can double click it or you can sudo dpkg -i /path/to/it | 01:26 |
| Alotesnivek | Getting that now. | 01:26 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: I think you already have LSB 3.0 but if you double click it the installer will tell you. (gdebi is the installer) | 01:26 |
| tlf | I've been trying to reformat my ipod, but when attempting to do so via gparted I get the following: "Error creating partition table: helper exited with exit code 1: Error calling fsync(2) on /dev/sdb: Input/output error" | 01:26 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | yassine_hell_: According to their docs, yes, and according to your dpgk output, there are dependencies problems, maybe because of the mssing LSB 3.0 | 01:26 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian i already did that | 01:27 |
| tlf | I've been having issues with windows and linux reading the drive ever since I tried to upgrade the ipod | 01:27 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: What does the installer say? What packages are missing? | 01:27 |
| ziikutv | Hi guys | 01:27 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian this what i got http://paste.ubuntu.com/616235/ | 01:27 |
| b3gott3n | aslamixer is showing his mic | 01:27 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: reading... | 01:27 |
| b3gott3n | i think the bug is in pulseaudio | 01:27 |
| yassine_hell_ | ok | 01:27 |
| leigh | can anyone suggest an application i can use to find and download books? (frostwire, transmission, etc) | 01:27 |
| ziikutv | can anyone please help me? My window has no boarders (so no title, no minimize, maximise, close buttons) I have CCSM btw. | 01:27 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | yassine_hell_: clear as day ---> Package lsb-core is not installed. | 01:27 |
| ziikutv | leigh: Download books illegally or? | 01:27 |
| lacus | How can I assign a user to a specific desktop? | 01:27 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: sudo apt-get install lsb-core | 01:27 |
| pteague | jawnah, ok, bind9 seemed to start up ok, but the aptitude process still isn't doing anything... debating ^c & restarting aptitude update, but not sure if that might break any install scripts | 01:28 |
| jamiewan | ziikutv, glitch log out and back in prob fix it | 01:28 |
| leigh | yes? | 01:28 |
| Skunkwaffle | leigh: sounds like you've already got a few | 01:28 |
| edbian | lacus: ? Each user has their own set of desktops. They do not share them to begin with | 01:28 |
| * sabiancrash_cgx wishes he had simple questions | 01:28 | |
| lacus | I use an XMonad/Gnome hybrid, but I want my guest account to just use the default gnome | 01:28 |
| leigh | not yet | 01:28 |
| jawnah | pteague, so the process is actively hung? | 01:28 |
| robin0800 | b3gott3n, try pulse audio volume control pavcontrol | 01:28 |
| leigh | i saw some oldies id like to find | 01:28 |
| b3gott3n | robin0800: its not me its for Alot | 01:28 |
| ziikutv | jaimewan: Tried it. i was able to fix till here... but before there was no taskbar and no launcher.. only desktop.. i fixed and got everything back except the window border any help? | 01:29 |
| b3gott3n | he quit | 01:29 |
| b3gott3n | Does anyone have a recommend for a terminal text web browser? | 01:29 |
| edbian | b3gott3n: w3m | 01:29 |
| b3gott3n | i hear emacs one is outdated | 01:29 |
| b3gott3n | W3m? cool | 01:29 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian http://paste.ubuntu.com/616240/ | 01:29 |
| woodworks | lynx? | 01:29 |
| edbian | lacus: Are you using gdm ? | 01:29 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian i should add that -f? | 01:29 |
| jamiewan | ziikutv, its happened to me lots and the log out always fixed it for me, sooo na i dunno,maybe restart | 01:29 |
| pteague | jawnah, htop is reporting 0.0% cpu & 2.1% mem & i've not yet returned to a shell prompt | 01:29 |
| losty | thanks jamiewan i found some windows drivers for it, but not sure how to install, also tanath had found some working for mint, which i had tried, with no luck | 01:29 |
| leigh | no ideas? :) | 01:30 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | vimperator is awesome but if your really ncurses only then lynx | 01:30 |

| jagas | anybody knows how to solve issues related to ati proprietary driver and compiz? | 01:30 |
| ziikutv | jamiewan: I did it so many times lol | 01:30 |
| lacus | edbian: nah, that's installed | 01:30 |
| Skunkwaffle | Hi everyone, I was hoping someone could help me if out if it's not too much trouble. It seems my updates are trying to remove my network-manager, but without it I can't get online. Anyone know how to fix this? | 01:30 |
| jawnah | pteague, I'm not sure then... the last thing from aptitude was that message about the bind9 connection refused from rndc? | 01:30 |
| losty | il keep trying and thank you so much for your time today jamiewan and also tanath - very patient!! thank you! | 01:30 |
| ziikutv | leigh: Just download via browser why do you need transmission (btw if you torrent, just use transmission) | 01:30 |
| b3gott3n | w3m vs lynx? | 01:30 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: Do you have a broken package lying around? It recommends we run sudo apt-get -f install I recommend you follow its recommendation | 01:30 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian i guess its the hamachi package , i tried -f same thing | 01:31 |
| leigh | download via browser? i dont understand | 01:31 |
| pvthodson | exit | 01:31 |
| edbian | lacus: mmm, it keeps track of the last session each user logged in with. That would be an easy way. I don't know of a way to control what DE a user uses (or why you'd care to really) | 01:31 |
| lacus | edbian: I see the option to choose a session, but I want to force the session | 01:31 |
| billy21 | hi im trying to use gtlck 0.4.2 but it keeps on saying i need a sound device what does this mean | 01:31 |
| lacus | edbian: I want to force it to make a user friendly account so that when someone steals my laptop, they will use it easily. (honeypot) | 01:32 |
| pteague | jawnah, yep | 01:32 |
| edbian | lacus: MMm, IDK. autologin ? | 01:32 |
| jawnah | pteague, :/ I don't want to recommend stopping the process, but I suspect that it is hung and may not continue on its own. | 01:32 |
| lacus | yeah, it's just not defaulting to the right session. | 01:32 |
| jawnah | pteague, has it actually started upgrades of packages or did it just stop in a pre-configuration stage? | 01:32 |
| lacus | I'm going to test that autologin though. thanks | 01:32 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: just sudo apt-get -f install that's it. It fixes broken packages. Installing lsb-core should work | 01:32 |
| edbian | lacus: OH, strange. IDK | 01:33 |
| edbian | lacus: Never had that problem! :P | 01:33 |

| Slugma | hey everyone | 01:38 |
| semitones | can someone take a look at this grub entry and see if it is sane? I'm not sure what the "msdos" stuff is, and why it says "ext2" when the partition is ext4. The partition will not boot up, by the way. http://imgur.com/XTcQD | 01:38 |
| Slugma | just wondering, what's the influence on removing ubuntu-desktop? | 01:38 |

| sabiancrash_cgx | edbian: I have a ubuntu 9.04 install on a virtualbox VM that hangs at the Grub loading, please wait screen | 01:40 |
| Skunkwaffle | Hi everyone, I was hoping someone could help me if out if it's not too much trouble. It seems my updates are trying to remove my network-manager, but without it I can't get online. Anyone know how to fix this? | 01:40 |
| RevSpecies116 | can't install hicolor=icon-theme, as apt-get has 2 conflicts [error installing] | 01:40 |
| RevSpecies116 | halevt and xcolor are causing intractable issues | 01:40 |
| Juest | and i am having too many dependences and setting up errors | 01:40 |
| billy21 | could someone help please im trying to use gtlck 0.4.2 but it keeps on saying i need a sound device what does this mean | 01:40 |
| edbian | sabiancrash_cgx: Have you tried re-installing grub to the MBR?? | 01:40 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | edbian: I have checked the partition priority, I have reinstalled grub, and have even tried upgrading to grub 2 | 01:41 |
| Slugma | guys, what is the real influence of removing ubuntu-desktop? Does anyone know? | 01:41 |
| losty | jamiewan tanath im not sure if its because im using kernal 2.6.39 and the drivers were for 2.6.30 http://www.palmix.org/r5u870-en.html | 01:41 |
| tanath | losty, that could do it | 01:41 |
| Juest | Slugma: none, is a metapackage | 01:41 |
| billy21 | slugma none | 01:41 |
| RevSpecies116 | Slugma: it will prevent you from upgrading ubuntu to next release if removed | 01:41 |
| ziikutv | whats the terminal command to logout | 01:41 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: You have a readme in /opt/logmein-hamachi/ | 01:41 |
| Slugma | RevSpecies116, that's what I though. but I can get it again later, no? | 01:42 |
| edbian | sabiancrash_cgx: Re-installed grub how? | 01:42 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | edbian: when I attempt to upgrade to grub2 in a chroot from a livecd it hangs using 100% cpu on Generating core.img | 01:42 |
| Juest | yeah | 01:42 |
| losty | tanath, is there a safe way of going back to kernal 2.6.30 from .39? | 01:42 |
| RevSpecies116 | possibly, Slugma | 01:42 |
| edbian | sabiancrash_cgx: I think the HDD is dying | 01:42 |
| Juest | Slugma: ys | 01:42 |
| edbian | sabiancrash_cgx: That's my guess | 01:42 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | edbian: its a vm | 01:42 |
| tanath | losty, install it, and choose it from grub when booting | 01:42 |
| Juest | more than that RevSpecies116, we have troubles with desktop | 01:42 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | virtualbox | 01:42 |
| edbian | sabiancrash_cgx: mmmmm | 01:42 |
| billy21 | slugma none | 01:42 |
| billy21 | could someone help please im trying to use gtlck 0.4.2 but it keeps on saying i need a sound device what does this mean | 01:43 |
| edbian | sabiancrash_cgx: There could still be a hdd error. At the end of the day the VM is on the hdd too | 01:43 |
| RevSpecies116 | OKies, yes - apt-get install issues within ubuntu 11.04 from an upgrade from 10.10 | 01:43 |
| losty | ok, il give it a twirl, im using wubi, not sure if it will have an affect tanath, thanks | 01:43 |
| RevSpecies116 | two are cludging it up - halevt and xcolor... | 01:43 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | the host OS is fine, I don't doubt there could be a bit level error in the vdk but it its all software | 01:43 |
| Juest | more than that | 01:43 |
| edbian | sabiancrash_cgx: I don't know. Strange error. Sounds like hardware to me | 01:44 |
| RevSpecies116 | and those two are preventing apt-get from installing hicolor-icon-themes | 01:44 |
| Juest | more than that we have troubles with desktop-file-utils | 01:44 |
| Juest | when we tired to inst synaptics+ | 01:44 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | edbian, I could move the vm to another machine and test | 01:44 |
| Juest | yeah, it was uninstalled | 01:44 |
| Juest | ... | 01:44 |
| tlf | I cannot do any kind of reformatting or anything of my ipod | 01:45 |
| edbian | sabiancrash_cgx: yep. You really don't wanna re-install this server. Do you have backups? | 01:45 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian back sorry had a lil aMsn problem, thx for the help ima go read the ReadMe ^^ | 01:45 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: Did you find it? | 01:45 |
| Juest | ummm | 01:45 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian yep | 01:45 |
| tlf | I've been trying to reformat my ipod, but when attempting to do so via gparted I get the following: "Error creating partition table: helper exited with exit code 1: Error calling fsync(2) on /dev/sdb: Input/output error" | 01:45 |
| tlf | I cannot do any kind of reformatting or anything of my ipod | 01:45 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | but hopes are near 0 as I think the issue lies inside the vdk. I have backups but they all are experiencing this problem, I am trying to look for one farther back as the ones I have are recent | 01:46 |
| RevSpecies116 | Is there a way of resolving why halevt and xcolor are blocking further apt-get installs? | 01:46 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian "hamachi login" to loging | 01:46 |
| edbian | yassine_hell_: Good :) | 01:46 |
| yassine_hell_ | edbian thx :D | 01:46 |

| edbian | yassine_hell_: sure | 01:46 |

| Juest | and is there a way to fix every apt-get try to install? | 01:47 |
| edbian | Juest: sudo apt-get -f install | 01:47 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | billy21, assuming you already googled the error | 01:47 |
| edbian | Juest: fixes broken packages | 01:47 |
| billy21 | yep | 01:47 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | did you pastebin your output | 01:47 |
| RevSpecies116 | edbian: and which packages do we find out are broken | 01:47 |
| foobarbecue | Is there a way to call gnu screen, passing it a program to start immediately? | 01:48 |
| Juest | yeah, i think i get nothing | 01:48 |
| edbian | RevSpecies116: sudo apt-get -f install attempts to fix all packages and get the package manager back to a working state. You don't have to know | 01:48 |
| Evanescence | what is it .gvfs under user home directory ? | 01:48 |
| edbian | Juest: You get nothing? What do you mean? | 01:48 |
| edbian | Juest: four 0's ? upgraded, installed, remove, not upgraded | 01:49 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | Evanescence: google... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GVFS | 01:49 |
| Evanescence | sabiancrash_cgx: thanks | 01:49 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | I still don't understand how in 2011 people still fail to perform a basic internet search before asking questions | 01:50 |
| RevSpecies116 | ahhh, okies, edbian | 01:51 |
| semitones | is 744 a good chmod for a public directory on the internet? | 01:51 |
| edbian | RevSpecies116: :) | 01:51 |
| trans | hello guys I want to install ubuntu on my dell xps, but they haven't partitioned the system and only 1 drive is available, how to install ubuntu along side windows in the same partition without affecting windows? thanks in advance | 01:51 |
| Evanescence | sabiancrash_cgx: because we are used to ask, some habit in society is changed and affecting us | 01:51 |
| edbian | trans: There are two ways to install alongside. The first is wubi (which does not repartition) and is a bit of a hack. The second is a proper install. You do partition, you do not affect windows. | 01:52 |
| edbian | trans: Both can be achieved by downloading and using the live CD. http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download | 01:52 |
| Skunkwaffle | You're probably right, but I think www.LMGTFY.com really needs to get more traffic | 01:52 |
| OneWave | aloha | 01:53 |
| sakuragno | hi | 01:53 |
| sakuragno | :D | 01:53 |
| trans | edbian : I saw an option install along side with windows but was afraid I loose the data so quit the installation, I don't want to install with wubi, "install alongside windows" means will it install without affecting the rest of the system? | 01:54 |
| OneWave | im trying to install diablo 2 in wine and having trouble. would anyone help me? | 01:54 |
| sakuragno | do someone should help me with ubuntu10.10 canon pixima mp160 and scanners problem? | 01:54 |
| fester77 | 1 | 01:54 |
| fester77 | 2 | 01:54 |
| fester77 | 3 | 01:54 |
| OneWave | lol i see im not the only one in here for tech support :P | 01:54 |
| edbian | trans: install alongside means it will install without affecting the rest of the system. Yes. Don't use wubi | 01:54 |
| edbian | :) | 01:54 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | trans, make a disk image of your drive before to be safe | 01:54 |
| edbian | OneWave: Everybody is here for that | 01:54 |
| edbian | 4 | 01:54 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | that way if you fubar the drive, you can restore | 01:54 |
| w30 | trans, the only Windows thing to do is run defrag in windows to move all the Windows files to one area. | 01:55 |
| * edbian can I have a little more | 01:55 | |
| sakuragno | please ... i'm goin crazy with the scangear :P | 01:55 |
| trans | sabiancrash_cgx: its new system, just don't wanna break it so early | 01:55 |
| fester77 | im on kubuntu can i ask away in here anyway? | 01:55 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | trans, hence the disk image | 01:55 |
| OneWave | so I insert the Install disk, CD to it in the terminal and run " wine /media/INSTALL/setup.exe"... it runs but keeps asking me to insert the install disk which is already inserted | 01:55 |
| edbian | fester77: yes | 01:56 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | if you break it, a restore is just a few mins away | 01:56 |
| edbian | OneWave: whoa, what? | 01:56 |
| OneWave | im trying to install diablo 2 in wine | 01:56 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | trans use clonezilla and an external drive | 01:56 |
| trans | w30 : wouldn't the ubuntu installer do that automatically | 01:56 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | that way you can learn in peace | 01:56 |
| edbian | OneWave: oh, hahahaha I was just talking to someone else how to install Ubuntu | 01:56 |
| OneWave | hehe | 01:57 |
| edbian | OneWave: You should ask in #winehq most likely | 01:57 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | trans, the other option is to use ubuntu in a virtualbox VM | 01:57 |
| trans | sabiancrash_cgx: thanks for the information | 01:57 |
| Lenin_Cat | For some reason I am downloading at insanely slow speeds. | 01:57 |
| edbian | trans: It does make a backup for you. No | 01:57 |
| w30 | trans, I don't think so | 01:57 |
| OneWave | thanks edbian | 01:57 |
| edbian | OneWave: sure | 01:57 |

| sabiancrash_cgx | then I would recommend using clonezilla to make a clone of your existing drive, then run the nice little ubuntu installer and let it walk you through the process or use use gparted to manually set up your partitions | 01:58 |
| trans | edbian : thanks buddy for ur help | 01:59 |
| edbian | Juest: RevSpecies116 Are you two together? | 01:59 |
| edbian | trans: sure | 01:59 |
| w30 | trans, rule of thumb is to use the respective operating system file tools on it's own files where possible and that means Mac, Linux, Windows, whatever | 01:59 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | I seem to remember the ubuntu installer actually doing a pretty good job walking you through resizing your ntfs partition | 01:59 |
| ferlegend | I'm use trisquel | 01:59 |
| ferlegend | do you know trsiquel ?? | 01:59 |
| Juest | yes edbian, he's helping me with vnc | 01:59 |
| trans | w30 : yeah got it | 01:59 |
| semitones | what is the number equivalent to chmod drwxr-xr-x | 02:00 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | OneWave: /j #winhq | 02:00 |

| Juest | lol | 02:01 |
| Juest | ? | 02:01 |

| edbian | Juest: The issue is what. No packages will install? | 02:02 |
| Juest | no, they fail to configure | 02:02 |
| Juest | but some packages succed | 02:02 |

| Juest | better connect to my pc? | 02:04 |
| Juest | would you prefer to connect via vnc to my pc edbian? | 02:05 |
| edbian | tlf: I am guessing that your ipod hdd is physically broken. (squeaky wheel gets the grease) | 02:05 |
| edbian | Juest: I prefer not to actually. I think it's important for you to learn | 02:05 |
| Juest | i know | 02:05 |
| Juest | just i say is better to get into vnc | 02:05 |

| edbian | Name me one package that did install and one that did not | 02:08 |
| edbian | Just the package names | 02:08 |
| zer010 | I just have one quick question about which version of Ubuntu I should get. | 02:08 |
| edbian | zer010: either 10.04 (LTS) or 11.04 (current) | 02:09 |
| zer010 | I want to set up an aged desktop to serve as a print server. | 02:09 |
| edbian | zer010: Probably then 10.04 server (assuming you don't need a gui) | 02:09 |
| zer010 | I don't need a lot of extras, so should I use the server edition or use the ALT for a CLI install. | 02:10 |
| edbian | zer010: You're building a server. Might as well use server edition. Somebody's gotta use it. | 02:10 |
| zer010 | Lol | 02:10 |
| edbian | zer010: The ALT with CLI only is probably good too | 02:11 |
| edbian | The differences are so minor | 02:11 |
| zer010 | I noticed that the server edition has a "server kernel" but it also has so many more options that I doubt I'll need. | 02:11 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | battery finally died for juest | 02:11 |
| Lenin_Cat | For some reason I am downloading at insanely slow speeds. Can someone help me? | 02:12 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | zer010, nice thing about server is that is quite modular, less is installed than with the desktop edition | 02:12 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | you install what you need | 02:12 |

| steviewonder | holaaaa | 02:41 |
| stevlau | Recentery,inorder to lean android kernel devemenpent. Because Ubuntu9.10 only suport Glibc2.10 but android kernel need Glibc2.11 to use. I need to update the Glibc2.10 to 2.11. So I got the source code of Glibc2.11 form ubuntu.com. | 02:41 |
| stevlau | Then I executed the 'configure', 'make' and 'make check' commands. Every thing was OK, but until I executed the 'make install' command . Ubuntu9.10 can not execute any program afer that. even the make uninstall or make clean command and all command unexecutable. | 02:41 |
| stevlau | So I shutdown the computer and try to reboot the system. But it unbootable. it stoped at the ubuntu ring boot logo. | 02:41 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | clusterfusk: what happens if you do a nslookup archive.canonical.com | 02:41 |

| jamiewan | losty, so open terminal, cd to wherever its located like the page says, let me know when ur there we'll just follow the page see what happens | 02:42 |
| rinkukokiri | I realize the base problem is the different x servers in my setup... still, there should be a simple solution so that I can easily drag windows/icons/elements from one display to the other without reverting to a single x server. | 02:42 |

| Vilemaxim | stevlau, live cd.. chroot etc | 02:43 |
| SolidState | idk your sources are the same as mine pretty much | 02:43 |
| SolidState | is your dns working right? | 02:43 |
| nom_mon | ok, im going to try that. im using windows now, do i'm going to log off. thanks1 | 02:43 |
| stevlau | I dont't known | 02:43 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | clusterfusk: It appears to be a dns resolution issue, please try my nslookup suggestion to see if you can resolve the addresses that are having trouble in your first paste | 02:44 |
| SolidState | clusterfusk, can you ping the apt-get update ip | 02:44 |
| steviewonder | peanuts are cool | 02:44 |
| Vilemaxim | stevlau, use my name when posting so I can find the message. Too many messages | 02:44 |
| clusterfusk | sabiancrash_cgx: ";; connection timed out; no servers could be reached" | 02:45 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | SolidState: ping is not always a reliable test | 02:45 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | clusterfusk: thats your issue | 02:45 |
| SolidState | k host then | 02:45 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | can you ping 4.2.2.2 | 02:45 |
| SolidState | host google.com | 02:45 |
| Vilemaxim | stevlau, not sure how to fix the glib problem | 02:45 |
| rinkukokiri | Considering that's the one thing that makes me want to finish blowing out my previous windows install and continue with my reinstall.. I hate going through the pain of installing windows/drivers/software and having to redo it every 6-8 mos, but unless Ubuntu stops trying to make their OS pretty, and starts adding requested functionality, people are going to keep going back to windows. | 02:45 |
| steviewonder | if you type google into google the internet will break. | 02:45 |
| steviewonder | its a proven fact | 02:45 |
| fester77 | how can i create a network with my wifi ? this one is kubuntu and the other box is win xp | 02:45 |
| SolidState | k blind guy ;-P | 02:45 |
| steviewonder | so dont do that | 02:46 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | if you can ping 4.2.2.2 you need to make sure you have a reliable dns host setup in your livecd environment | 02:46 |
| Vilemaxim | stevlau, but if you need access to the install, you can use a live cd and mount your harddrive and then chroot to it | 02:46 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | 4.2.2.2 is a very reliable dns server | 02:46 |
| steviewonder | umm hello? | 02:46 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | 8.8.8.8 is another as well | 02:46 |

| steviewonder | THANKS! | 02:51 |
| rinkukokiri | fester77, your best bet... go buy a router, that way you don't really have to worry about firewalls and such.. plus you don't have to deal with the overhead of one pc having to monitor all your bandwidth | 02:51 |

| Vilemaxim | ! | 02:53 |
| losty | jamiewan it started to install than said no such directory | 02:53 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | folks, most of your irc clients have the ability to ignore a user | 02:53 |
| SolidState | rinkukokiri, could be -.- | 02:53 |

| losty | do you want me to paste bin jamiewan? | 02:53 |
| steviewonder | ????? | 02:53 |
| maco | steviewonder: ask the actual question then | 02:54 |
| jamiewan | losty, yeah i/ve only got another 15mins tho | 02:54 |
| Vilemaxim | steviewonder, you need wine or crossover office | 02:54 |
| rinkukokiri | fester77, like I said, go buy a cheap NON LINKSYS.. flash it with DD-WRT or Tomato or something else OSS and use that instead of forcing one pc to monitor/slowdown your internet. | 02:54 |
| djmaster2437 | steviewonder, what type of help? | 02:54 |
| steviewonder | wtf is wrong with my mIRC? | 02:54 |
| akerl | steviewonder: Why are you trying to use mIRC on ubuntu? | 02:54 |
| losty | jamiewan http://paste.ubuntu.com/616279/ | 02:54 |
| SolidState | steviewonder, cause your on windows. LOL! | 02:54 |
| fester77 | so in order to run linux i must purchase additional hardware ? | 02:54 |
| steviewonder | haha jk i have no clue what a mIRC is ... danielbrown just asked me about it | 02:55 |
| fester77 | if it worked win7 to winxp i cant see why it cant work ubuntu to winxp | 02:55 |
| SolidState | clusterfusk, did you figure it out yet? | 02:55 |
| akerl | fester77: In order to run a network you need networking hardware... Like a router | 02:55 |
| maco | fester77: should be able to connect to ad hoc just fine | 02:55 |
| maco | akerl: not with an ad hoc network | 02:55 |
| Vilemaxim | fester77, what's not working | 02:56 |
| maco | fester77: i dont know if the graphical network tool for kubuntu can do it. maybe try network-manager-gnome? if not, definitely doable from command line | 02:56 |
| akerl | maco: True, but an ad hoc network isn't exactly the recommended way to do persistent home networking | 02:56 |
| maco | akerl: meh, ya work with what ya've got | 02:56 |
| clusterfusk | SolidState & sabiancrash_cgx: no change after putting "nameserver 4.2.2.2" in /etc/resolve.conf | 02:56 |
| rinkukokiri | fester77, no.. it will just be easier for you to go out and get a router, hook it up to all your pc's and use that as the gateway to the internet instead of using a pc with 30 NIC's in it to do the same thing along with play wow, run a laggy firewall, unwittingly install microsoft xp antivirus 2011, etc... | 02:56 |

| losty | jamiewan no folder called video0 | 02:58 |

| fester77 | is there like a network manager like in windows ? .... | 02:58 |
| ultrixx | boaz: how much of the ram can you actually use in mac os? is it core duo not core 2 duo? | 02:58 |
| jamiewan | losty, create one call in video0 | 02:58 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | boaz: I would go with 64bit unless you have a reason to not | 02:58 |
| akerl | SolidState: with the difference between 32 or 64 bit OS? RAM and CPU are the prime hardware difference | 02:58 |
| maco | fester77: you can try using network-manager-gnome, or you can use "sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode Ad-Hoc" then "sudo iwconfig wlan essid yournetworkname" (if no WEP or WPA stuff. if you do need that stuff, i'll expand further) | 02:58 |
| SolidState | its called network-manager-gnome | 02:58 |
| jamiewan | losty, then go thru the process again make make install etc | 02:58 |

| losty | jamiewan says permission denied | 02:59 |
| SolidState | akerl, (amount) of ram has nothing to do with processor architechture | 02:59 |

| akerl | ^^ | 02:59 |
| rinkukokiri | fester77, allright, here's community documentation on the subject, but I still recommend going out and finding/buying/taking/borrowing a router and placing that in between your cable modem and your pc's ..... anyway, here it is. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing | 02:59 |

| losty | ok thanks jamiewan | 03:00 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | If i have 8GB ram, I will lose the ability to leverage 4GB of that in a 32bit OS | 03:00 |
| akerl | SolidState: Because (especially on older processors lacking PAE, if you have 4+ gigs of RAM, a 32 bit OS can't use over 3.5ish of it | 03:00 |
| fester77 | thx rinkukoiri | 03:00 |
| jamiewan | fester77, right click on there nick and open dialog | 03:00 |
| SolidState | if you have 8gb of ram, you are 99.9% going to be on a 64bit proc... yes? | 03:00 |
| akerl | s/PAE/PAE)/ | 03:00 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | and PAE just sucks imho | 03:00 |
| SolidState | not many machine have 8gb of ram. | 03:00 |
| akerl | SolidState: a 64 bit processor doesn't do shit to help you use more RAM if you're on a 32 bit OS | 03:01 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | my laptop does | 03:01 |
| SolidState | I know that ;\ | 03:01 |
| SolidState | 8gb of ram won't give you performance boost of a better processor though guys | 03:01 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | I have machines with 96GB ram | 03:01 |
| djmaster2437 | i have a 16 gb mac pro | 03:01 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | SolidState: Its not about performance, its about leveraging the investment in the hardware you have | 03:01 |
| clusterfusk | sabiancrash_cgx & SolidState: now there's another problem. http://paste.ubuntu.com/616282/ But it's right here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/grub | 03:01 |
| rinkukokiri | fester77, seriously though, you got 30.00 $$ ?? >> http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Belkin+-+150N+Enhanced+Wireless-N+Router+with+4-Port+Ethernet+Switch/2196035.p?id=1218313905933&skuId=2196035&st=router&cp=1&lp=4 | 03:02 |
| akerl | SolidState: I have no gd clue what you're even arguing. RAM and CPU affect choice of 32/64 bit OS. That is a fact | 03:02 |
| SolidState | sabiancrash_cgx, what machine do you have with 96gb lol | 03:02 |
| maco | akerl: watch the language | 03:02 |
| djmaster2437 | also with 16.2 tb of hard drive space | 03:02 |
| akerl | maco: gotcha | 03:02 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | clusterfusk: grub is deprecated | 03:02 |
| rinkukokiri | akerl, not really, if you have the correct hardware and PAE you can run up to 64 gigs on a 32 bit os | 03:02 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | grub 2 (grub-pc) replaces it | 03:02 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | SolidState: Distributed computing nodes | 03:02 |
| SolidState | k. | 03:03 |
| SolidState | anyway back to the topic | 03:03 |
| clusterfusk | sabiancrash_cgx: I know, but grub2 breaks my system. Grub is in the repo, so why won't it install? | 03:03 |
| rinkukokiri | akerl, however it is rare to find the correct hardware with the PAE in one. | 03:03 |
| akerl | rinkukokiri: Which is why I said CPU and RAM. CPU affects PAE or not, as I said above. | 03:03 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | clusterfusk: What do you mean it breaks it | 03:03 |
| rinkukokiri | PAE isn't the determining factor I've found, it's the chipset/hardware combination | 03:03 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | clusterfusk: maybe we should troubleshoot grub instead of shoehorning grub .97 onto it | 03:03 |
| rinkukokiri | example, i have PAE but cannot use it because of an incorrect chipset/hardware configuration. | 03:04 |
| akerl | PAE is the factor... It's what *allows* a 32 bit OS to address more than 4gig of RAM. | 03:04 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | in fact, #grub won't even answer questions regarding grub .97 and older | 03:04 |
| SolidState | the bottom line is, if you have an old slow 32bit proc with who cares how much ram, it still is slow and any 64bit proc with 4gb of ram will kill it | 03:04 |
| clusterfusk | sabiancrash_cgx: after the bios, when grub should start, the monitor turns off. | 03:04 |
| boaz | ultrixx: how about dualbooting osx/ubuntu? Is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MactelSupportTeam/AppleIntelInstallation#Dual-Boot: Mac OSX and Ubuntu my best bet? | 03:04 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | SolidState: you confuse me. If you have a 32bit proc, you don't have more than 4GB ram. period | 03:05 |
| SolidState | omg. | 03:05 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | unless your doing PAE which is not typical on consumer machines | 03:05 |
| ultrixx | boaz: you should use ReFIT | 03:05 |
| ultrixx | boaz: but i will read the page you pasted | 03:05 |
| SolidState | is it typical on your nodes | 03:05 |
| SolidState | it sucks btw. | 03:05 |
| boaz | ultrixx: any good way to do that with out wiping my existing os? | 03:06 |
| acovrig | squid unable to determine ip from hostname-why? (squid.conf - http://pastebin.com/P8xdWA2d ) | 03:06 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | yes it does, and yes the XEONs do support PAE | 03:06 |
| doofy | Is there something funny about trying to boot off of LVM drives with Grub? One one of my drives I have 2 partitions (200 mb ext2 /boot, remainder is Physical Space for a logical group). In that group I have one volume which is setup to mount on / as ext4. When I boot up grub gives me error: unknown filesystem | 03:06 |
| rinkukokiri | akerl, Use of PAE to address RAM above the 4 GB point is key to breaking the "3 GB barrier." There are, however, factors that limit this ability, and lead to the "3 GB barrier" under certain circumstances, even though the processor fully supports PAE. | 03:06 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | but they are also 64bit CPUs so I run a native 64bit OS on them | 03:06 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | PAE is a hack | 03:06 |
| SolidState | I know l\ | 03:06 |
| SolidState | :\ | 03:06 |
| clusterfusk | sabiancrash_cgx: after the bios, when grub should start, the monitor turns off. | 03:06 |
| rinkukokiri | the rest of the motherboard must participate in allowing RAM above the 4GB point to be addressed by the CPU. | 03:06 |
| ultrixx | boaz: sure, it's in the link you posted here | 03:07 |
| SolidState | yea like I said PAE sucks. | 03:07 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | clusterfusk: Did you try reinstalling grub-pc | 03:07 |
| rinkukokiri | ^^ exactly | 03:07 |
| boaz | ultrixx: oh, I guess I should read it then ;p | 03:07 |
| SolidState | increasing your ram exponentially isn't going to help your performance. | 03:07 |
| ultrixx | boaz: lol | 03:07 |

| PauseBazinga | I need some help on that particular set-up | 03:08 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | SolidState: performance is a very loose concept and involves all aspects of the system and the workload presented | 03:08 |
| SolidState | yea thats what I am saying ;\ | 03:08 |
| SolidState | its a chain the whole weakest link theory | 03:08 |

| losty | jamiewan not sure if you still about, but tried it and still showing same, il keep trying, thanks for help mate, hope you have good evening | 03:08 |
| SolidState | or any convential non solid state hd | 03:08 |
| PauseBazinga | I've got the displays, err, displaying. The problem is that the "virtual" screen size on the non-rotated display is off the boundries of the physical screen. | 03:09 |
| jamiewan | losty, there will be someone more resourceful than i mate i'm sure, hope it all works out cheers | 03:09 |
| clusterfusk | Did nom_mon ever come back to verify whether or not my suggestion helped? | 03:09 |
| PauseBazinga | that is to say, I can drag windows and icons off the screen to the "virtual" area and I shouldn't be able to. | 03:10 |
| rinkukokiri | PauseBazinga, I'm using dual displays, neither rotated, but I wish to know how to use seperate x servers and have the ability to drag windows/icons/gui elements from one display to the other. | 03:10 |
| SolidState | losty, what you tryin to do man? | 03:10 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | clusterfusk: So there is no opportunity to hit c during bootup before the monitor blanks? | 03:10 |
| losty | hi SolidState | 03:10 |
| losty | SolidState im trying to install some drivers for my laptop's built in webcam | 03:10 |
| rinkukokiri | or even be able to copy/paste icons from one display to the other/ | 03:10 |
| losty | keep getting stuck | 03:11 |
| clusterfusk | sabiancrash_cgx: that's right. BIOS => Monitor turns off. | 03:11 |
| PauseBazinga | well I can drag from one to the other just fine. there's one big square virtual screen and the two displays are on top of that. | 03:11 |
| SolidState | losty, on what exactly? | 03:11 |
| boaz | ultrixx: your saying that this will let me install without wiping?: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MactelSupportTeam/AppleIntelInstallation#You have already installed Mac OSX and Windows Vista, now to install Ubuntu. | 03:11 |
| boaz | uh | 03:11 |
| boaz | i mean | 03:11 |
| mouse | I'm thinking of getting an Acer Aspire One ZG5 with winxp installed and putting linux on it but I can't find any sort of compatibility list. Does anyone have any information on this? | 03:11 |
| rinkukokiri | PauseBazinga, yeah, that's exactly what I don't want. | 03:11 |
| PauseBazinga | but since one is rotated and they're not the same dementions that leave a lot of extra space that the OS thinks is in use that I can't actually see | 03:12 |
| SolidState | if you buy a laptop, get the one with a free xbox 360 lol | 03:12 |

| clusterfusk | sabiancrash_cgx: when? why? | 03:12 |
| PauseBazinga | rinkukokiri, I actually had it working perfectly on Gnome 3 with the proper physical boundries recognized. Problem is my brain was fighting against using Gnome 3 | 03:13 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | clusterfusk: actually they have documentaion on reverting https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reverting to GRUB Legacy | 03:13 |
| dvanstone | hilo | 03:13 |
| Trfsrfr | I have a brand new re-install of 11.04, and I still have ZERO sound. Are my friends still here? | 03:13 |
| rinkukokiri | lol | 03:13 |

| dvanstone | is there a social channel ? | 03:14 |
| KM0201 | Trfsrfr: did you have sound on the live ccd/usb? | 03:14 |
| steviewonder | ANYBODY LIKE TAYSWIFT?? | 03:14 |
| PauseBazinga | solidstate, good call. I'd forgotten about that, but I think I remember them breaking my life last time I tried | 03:14 |
| rinkukokiri | #ubuntu-offtopic ? | 03:14 |
| steviewonder | I <3 HER | 03:14 |
| ultrixx | boaz: ŷou basically shrink the windows partition so you have enough space for ubuntu | 03:14 |
| sudokill | steviewonder, gtfo u queer | 03:14 |
| rinkukokiri | !offtopic | steviewonder | 03:14 |
| ubottu | steviewonder: #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! | 03:14 |
| Trfsrfr | KM0201, I didnt check....damn... | 03:14 |
| ultrixx | boaz: you do that inside the ubuntu installation program | 03:14 |
| PauseBazinga | I'll reinstall fglx and try xenorama, brb | 03:14 |
| steviewonder | MY MIRC IS BROKEN... | 03:15 |
| boaz | ultrixx: I'm on a mac. | 03:15 |
| rinkukokiri | steviewonder, then go to the #mirc channel | 03:15 |
| KM0201 | Trfsrfr: probably would've been a smart thing to check | 03:15 |
| ultrixx | boaz: yes i thought so^^ | 03:15 |
| clusterfusk | sabiancrash_cgx: I'll try those instructions. thanks. | 03:15 |
| PauseBazinga | steviewonder, so broken that it's allowing you to chat with us? | 03:15 |
| ultrixx | boaz: have you got windows installed in bootcamp | 03:15 |
| djmaster2437 | bye ubuntu world | 03:15 |
| boaz | ultrixx: no | 03:15 |
| steviewonder | YES? | 03:16 |
| clusterfusk | how do you alert ops? | 03:16 |
| ultrixx | boaz: so why do you come up with ubuntu after mac os and windows? | 03:16 |
| Trfsrfr | KM0201, yeah...I agree. But I had so many other things to do...I guess I still could? | 03:16 |
| KM0201 | Trfsrfr: i guess.. not sure what it would accomplish at this point though | 03:16 |
| PauseBazinga | brb, Ratheon reset required... | 03:16 |
| SolidState | PauseBazinga, you need to do sudo make && sudo make install | 03:16 |
| boaz | idk, i didn't see any other sections that seemed like they addressed the no wipe I want | 03:16 |
| ultrixx | boaz: go to Dual-Boot: Mac OSX and Ubuntu | 03:16 |
| SolidState | err that was for losty. | 03:17 |
| rinkukokiri | !help | 03:17 |
| ubottu | 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. :-) | 03:17 |
| Trfsrfr | KM0201, but I can always put the dc in and run it right? Even if I have ubuntu installed, or no? | 03:17 |
| steviewonder | THEY WONT ANSWER??? | 03:17 |
| Trfsrfr | cd | 03:17 |
| KM0201 | Trfsrfr: of course | 03:17 |
| boaz | ok, thanks ultrixx. | 03:17 |
| PauseBazinga | solidstate, you mean the included option for xenorama in CCC isn't actually there? | 03:17 |
| ultrixx | boaz: np | 03:17 |
| sudokill | steviewonder, stop trolling | 03:17 |
| sudokill | r u drunk? | 03:17 |
| PauseBazinga | steviewonder, who's "they"? | 03:17 |
| clusterfusk | !ops steviewonder | 03:17 |
| SolidState | PauseBazinga, never used it just googled dual displays on linux for you :-) | 03:17 |
| Trfsrfr | KM0201, i'll have to wait until I finish installing it on my laptop | 03:17 |
| steviewonder | I AINT DRUNK AND IDK WHAT TROLLING IS!!!! | 03:18 |
| Logan_ | clusterfusk: can you please just /ignore him? | 03:18 |
| KM0201 | .. | 03:18 |
| losty | SolidState il give it another shot | 03:18 |
| rinkukokiri | !feedthetroll | 03:18 |
| ubottu | The above mess was caused by someone who thought it was funny (they're gone now). Please ignore it completely, since discussing it and making a fuss will only make them think they've reached their "fun" goal. | 03:18 |
| losty | thanks | 03:18 |
| IdleOne | steviewonder: please drop the caps | 03:18 |
| PauseBazinga | steviewonder, see that button that says, "CapsLock?" | 03:18 |
| steviewonder | sorry | 03:18 |
| SolidState | losty, do what I said you tried to just do sudo make install you gotta do sudo make first | 03:18 |
| KM0201 | Trfsrfr: yeah, i'm guessing its probably jsut a setting somewhere.. what is your sound device (lspci in a terminal) | 03:18 |
| steviewonder | hah ai aint that dumb | 03:18 |
| * SolidState shoots steviewonder with an ak | 03:19 | |
| PauseBazinga | okay solidestate, here goes... | 03:19 |
| steviewonder | TERRORIST!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 03:19 |
| * sudokill shoots SolidState with an rpg | 03:19 | |

| ubottu | #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! | 03:19 |
| SolidState | damn. overkill | 03:19 |
| sudokill | and there was war | 03:19 |
| tuxxman | hey, I'm having trouble connecting to a wifi network. I can see the network and try to connect to it, but it just keeps asking me for a password, but the password is right. | 03:19 |
| rinkukokiri | steviewonder, this isn't a social channel, this is a support channel for Ubuntu. if you do not have an ubuntu support related question, please navigate yourself to #ubuntu-offtopic or some other social related channel. | 03:19 |
| Frostyglitch | anyone here familiar with filezilla? | 03:19 |
| SolidState | tuxxman, you got the right kind of encryption set? | 03:19 |
| tuxxman | Yeah | 03:19 |
| SolidState | details then I say! | 03:20 |
| steviewonder | #UBUNTU-OFFTOPIC WILL NOT ANSWER ME!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 03:20 |
| clusterfusk | i wonder why | 03:20 |
| steviewonder | BITCH! | 03:20 |
| SolidState | I am fucking baked heh | 03:20 |
| sudokill | steviewonder, whats the matter | 03:20 |
| Frostyglitch | i was uploading some files using filezilla, checked the box to skip files already present on server, but now I think it's even skipping files *not present on the server | 03:20 |
| rinkukokiri | yay, i was just gonna tell him to join Rizon and bug the 4chan guise :D | 03:20 |
| delinquentme | is it a clean operation for windows to shrink its partition .. to make more for ubuntu? or should i expect that windows is gonna go bonkers after i shrink its home? | 03:20 |
| sudokill | steviewonder, u wanna talk about taylor swift? | 03:21 |
| Frostyglitch | where do i go to turn off the "always perform this action" | 03:21 |
| Trfsrfr | KM0201, http://paste.ubuntu.com/616294/ | 03:21 |
| rinkukokiri | sudokill, he's gone. | 03:21 |
| tuxxman | SolidState: Running on an HP dm4, and I can connect on windows7 | 03:21 |
| sudokill | delinquentme, windows can shrink it fine | 03:21 |
| Frostyglitch | in other words I don't want it to skip files anymore hehe | 03:21 |
| sudokill | delinquentme, it checks the fs | 03:21 |
| tuxxman | I click connect, and the only thing that happens is it attempts to connect and then asks me for the password again | 03:22 |
| rinkukokiri | delinquentme, yep, windows actually does something right there.. | 03:22 |
| sudokill | delinquentme, and makes sure data isnt lost | 03:22 |
| KM0201 | Trfsrfr: i'm not at my desktop, but i'm almost positive thats the sound device i have on my desktop | 03:22 |
| delinquentme | ok so then the process is .. shrink the windows partition .. and then use gparted? | 03:22 |
| losty | SolidState ive tried, seemed to have got little bit further, but doesnt seem to want to complete the modprobe http://paste.ubuntu.com/616297/ | 03:22 |
| sudokill | delinquentme, yes and format new partition as ext4 or whatever and install to that | 03:23 |
| Trfsrfr | KM0201, I have not had sound in 2 months. There have been many here trying to help me, and I (we) decided that a fresh install was in order. | 03:23 |
| rww | metatagg: Fix your connection, please. | 03:23 |
| Trfsrfr | KM0201, so here I am again, just got into the new install 10 minutes ago | 03:23 |
| delinquentme | sudokill, so i dont need to install anything .. i just need a bigger primary ext4 hd got a 100gig file i need on my HD | 03:23 |
| KM0201 | Trfsrfr: hmm, that is strange | 03:23 |
| lapaga | delinquentme, I would probably defrag the drive a couple times before shrinking | 03:23 |
| Frostyglitch | @rww you familiar with filezilla? :) | 03:24 |
| rww | Frostyglitch: if I were, I'd have answered your question already ;P | 03:24 |
| sudokill | delinquentme, then just use gparted and format it to whatever u want | 03:24 |
| Trfsrfr | KM0201, AND..I am a total noob | 03:24 |
| fedora_newb | d | 03:24 |
| rinkukokiri | delinquentme, Just make sure you pay special attention to where ubuntu wants to install the bootloader, if you install to the partition that has windows on it... no more windows bootloader.. | 03:24 |
| Frostyglitch | <.< | 03:24 |
| SolidState | losty, idk it isn't compiling correctly, so its not going to modprobe, try getting a newer version of the driver. | 03:24 |
| KM0201 | Trfsrfr: have you tried asking on the forums? | 03:24 |
| bencc | I've installed the emacs package under 11.04 but I don't see the menu under Applications | 03:24 |
| Frostyglitch | was hoping to actually find somebody active in the filezilla channel here, but of course it's dead | 03:24 |
| SolidState | try finding a .deb package | 03:25 |
| bencc | do I need another package? | 03:25 |
| losty | ok, will try SolidState - many thanks for your patient and help! :D | 03:25 |
| clusterfusk | sabiancrash_cgx: The istructions you linked me to require me to apt-get install grub. That's not working. http://paste.ubuntu.com/616298/ | 03:25 |
| delinquentme | oh so im already on a dual booted system .. i just want more space for well .. ' operating ' systems | 03:25 |
| clusterfusk | nom_mon: did it work? | 03:25 |
| KM0201 | Trfsrfr: does post #1 accurately describe your problem?.. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/onboard-sound-via82xxx-not-working-in-slackware-current-and-13-1-a-870785/ | 03:26 |
| Trfsrfr | KM0201, i have. But without real-time info, it doesnt help much for me right now. Which is why im here... | 03:26 |
| nom_mon | clusterfunk: yes. what does this mean? | 03:26 |
| KM0201 | Trfsrfr: yeah.. | 03:26 |
| SolidState | clusterfusk, you NEED to use grub2 dude | 03:26 |
| sudokill | delinquentme, if u want it for both win and linux dnt forget to use ntfs or something windows can natively use | 03:26 |
| dltucker | ne1 have ibm ds storagemanger working on ubuntu 11? | 03:27 |
| clusterfusk | SolidState: tell that to my monitor as it turns off during boot | 03:27 |
| rinkukokiri | lol | 03:27 |
| delinquentme | 1 more question .. does ubuntu have a graphical tool which shows what folders take up the most room on the HD? | 03:27 |
| sudokill | yes | 03:27 |
| SolidState | clusterfusk, while booting from hd or disk? | 03:27 |
| sudokill | forgot what its called lol | 03:27 |
| rinkukokiri | sequoia? | 03:28 |
| sudokill | file analyser ? idk | 03:28 |
| sudokill | disk usage analyzer | 03:28 |
| clusterfusk | nom_mon: your hardware doesn't like the unity interface. using Ubuntu classic should do just fine. | 03:28 |
| Trfsrfr | KM0201, I not so much describing my problem. When I was running the prior ubuntu version, I had sound...until I updated... | 03:28 |
| rinkukokiri | windows program is called sequioaview | 03:28 |
| clusterfusk | nom_mon: or unity is otherwise broken | 03:28 |
| nom_mon | clusterfunk: is there any way i can run natty? | 03:28 |
| rinkukokiri | ^^ views filesize as colored squares | 03:28 |
| KM0201 | hmm | 03:29 |
| SolidState | clusterfusk, while booting from hd or disk? | 03:29 |
| clusterfusk | SolidState: from HD | 03:29 |
| SolidState | k. | 03:29 |
| rinkukokiri | GDmap | 03:29 |
| mouse | I'm thinking of getting an Acer Aspire One ZG5 with winxp installed and putting linux on it but I can't find any sort of compatibility list. Does anyone have any information on this? | 03:29 |
| Trfsrfr | hmmm...I appreciate your help | 03:29 |
| rww | delinquentme: Applications > Accessories > Disk Usage Analyzer | 03:29 |
| sudokill | mouse, there is an ubuntu laptop compatability list somewhere | 03:29 |
| dltucker | mouse: I am running on an acer aspireone | 03:29 |
| rinkukokiri | sudokill, delinquentme rww http://dataisnature.com/?p=260 ?? | 03:29 |
| dltucker | mouse: I have ubuntu 11 going.. | 03:30 |
| mouse | dltucker, What model? | 03:30 |
| sudokill | rinkukokiri, not sure if the disk usage analyser is still in 11.04 | 03:30 |
| gartral | Oook.. something went completly wrong, I was writing a text doc, system suddenly rebooted, and now ubuntu is saying my keyring password is not the same as my login pass.. wtf | 03:30 |
| rww | rinkukokiri: That's for Windows, not Ubuntu. | 03:30 |
| clusterfusk | SolidState: I've never gotten grub2 to work on this machine. I always install grub legacy. | 03:30 |
| SolidState | clusterfusk, bad hw? | 03:30 |
| dltucker | mouse: ZG5 or is that ZGS | 03:30 |
| sudokill | nothing wrong with grub legacy | 03:30 |
| nom_mon | clusterfunk: is there any way I can run natty? | 03:31 |
| rinkukokiri | rww google said there was a reference to GdMap on that page... i didn't read b4 i linked, srry | 03:31 |
| EmuAlert | How do you reset the graphics to the "default" when you first pop in the live CD? | 03:31 |
| dltucker | mouse: just got bifocals... I think it is a zG5 and I only have one gb | 03:31 |
| mouse | dltucker, How did you install ubuntu 11? | 03:31 |
| rinkukokiri | sudokill, delinquentme rww try that? http://gdmap.sourceforge.net/ | 03:31 |
| SolidState | ya use grub legacy then I guess.. | 03:31 |
| SolidState | how slow is a machine that can't run grub 2 though... ? | 03:31 |
| dltucker | My Company has a ubuntu build. | 03:31 |
| dltucker | but you can download it and install it from a usb key | 03:32 |
| sudokill | grub 2 doesnt require high spec lol | 03:32 |
| gartral | Oook.. something went completly wrong, I was writing a text doc, system suddenly rebooted, and now ubuntu is saying my keyring password is not the same as my login pass.. wtf | 03:32 |
| sudokill | spam | 03:32 |
| SolidState | dltucker, what company? | 03:32 |
| dltucker | or an usb external hd. I would imagine there | 03:32 |
| clusterfusk | nom_mon: Ubuntu Classic IS natty, just without the sparkly new Unity interface. Trust me, you're not missing anything. It's a pain the butt. I removed it from my laptop. | 03:32 |
| dltucker | ibm | 03:32 |
| SolidState | thats cool ibm uses ubuntu. | 03:32 |
| mouse | dltucker, Did you have any problems with the wifi adapter? | 03:32 |
| tanath | can anyone help me with samba? before upgrading to 11.04 i was able to mount/access my shares, but now it fails. and running smbclient asks for a password | 03:32 |
| nom_mon | clusterfunk: ok thanks for all your help, | 03:32 |
| rinkukokiri | dltucker, you can do that with most any os now a days. even windows. I have xp installed on a sandisk 16g cruiser | 03:32 |
| rww | rinkukokiri: Unlike the program I already listed, GdMap is not included in Ubuntu. | 03:33 |
| dltucker | the only problems with wifi aare sometimes i have to take the battery out but that was the say with windows 7 | 03:33 |
| clusterfusk | nom_mon: that's "clusterfusk" | 03:33 |
| rinkukokiri | rww that is true. | 03:33 |
| SolidState | clusterfunkydunkydoo. | 03:33 |
| Trfsrfr | KM0201, does my pastebin post look okay? | 03:33 |
| kamran1 | mouse: here is the link for ubuntu certified hardware http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/ | 03:33 |
| clusterfusk | :| | 03:33 |
| KM0201 | Trfsrfr: yeah.. | 03:33 |
| mouse | dltucker, That's strange behavior. | 03:33 |
| dltucker | mouse: the wifi works out of the box on both the ibm build and the other ubuntu builds that I have tried. | 03:34 |
| Delerium_ | dltucker, I thought there was only a RHEL imagine that requires a licence for Linux at IBM !?! | 03:34 |
| rinkukokiri | rww considering this new unity crap, i can't understand how anyone can find stuff already installed in ubuntu anymore though :D | 03:34 |
| nom_mon | ok bye | 03:34 |
| rinkukokiri | brb goin to relogin to classic. | 03:34 |
| SolidState | xfce owns | 03:34 |
| === klown is now known as Guest67369 | ||
| sabiancrash_cgx | clusterfusk: grub is prolly not available in any of the sources you have setup in sources.list | 03:34 |
| dltucker | Delerium_: nope, IBM does have a redhat build and an ubuntu build. used to have a suse build. but there are several redhat builds. even a 6.1 | 03:34 |
| Trfsrfr | KM0201, so this is weird. I have changed from on-board sound in BIOS to external, and back again multiple times | 03:35 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | your going to have to find the proper repo for it and then add it to your sources.list and then do a apt-get update | 03:35 |
| mouse | kamran1, Thank you. I was looking for something like that. | 03:35 |
| Delerium_ | dltucker, ha... didn't knew that... a friend of mine might be happy! ;) | 03:35 |
| clusterfusk | sabiancrash_cgx: that's my guess, but I don't know which sources I'm supposed to add. | 03:35 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | clusterfusk a little googling to tell you | 03:35 |
| SolidState | clusterfusk, lol ;\ | 03:35 |
| Trfsrfr | KM0201, right now im on external, and my sound card is suppoted | 03:35 |
| Trfsrfr | supported | 03:35 |
| KM0201 | Trfsrfr: i wish i could give you an answer, my guess is, if youv'e been working on it for 2mo, folks have tried everything i would try | 03:35 |
| rinkukokiri | So, now that I have disabled that unity crap, what do i break if i uninstall it? | 03:36 |
| SolidState | some people would starve if you didn't hand feed them ;-P | 03:36 |
| tanath | can anyone help me with samba? before upgrading to 11.04 i was able to mount/access my shares, but now it fails. and running smbclient asks for a password | 03:36 |
| === trekkie is now known as trekkie1701c | ||
| KM0201 | Trfsrfr: what do you mean "it's supported".. it's working? | 03:36 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | SolidState: true | 03:36 |
| dltucker | Delerium_: have him email me if he wants to see where to download the stuff. | 03:36 |
| aot2002 | I have a installation of libxml2-dev which php says it's at version 2.6 but I need 2.7 and apt-cache says Version: 2.7.6.dfsg-1ubuntu1 Replaces: libxml2 (<= 2.6.6-1), ? How can I install 2.7 | 03:36 |
| SushiDude | I found a spelling error on http://www.ubuntu.com/ | 03:36 |
| Trfsrfr | KM0201, no - I mean it is one of the sound cards with drivers that are supported. open-source. | 03:36 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | SushiDude: OH NOES! | 03:36 |
| rww | SushiDude: where, specifically? | 03:36 |
| SushiDude | if you go to the download | 03:36 |
| KM0201 | Trfsrfr: how do you know that? | 03:37 |
| Trfsrfr | I have an ati hd4650 | 03:37 |
| Trfsrfr | I looked it up | 03:37 |
| delinquentme | 87 MB for a hard drive visualization tool sudo apt-get install kdirstat ... that doesnt sound right | 03:37 |
| SushiDude | if you go to: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download | 03:37 |
| SushiDude | then | 03:37 |
| Delerium_ | dltucker, k, I'll let him know... Thanks for the info! | 03:37 |
| SushiDude | Burn your CD or create a USB drive | 03:37 |
| SushiDude | USB stick, Windows | 03:37 |
| SushiDude | Show me how | 03:37 |
| gartral | Oook.. something went completly wrong, I was writing a text doc, system suddenly rebooted, and now ubuntu is saying my keyring password is not the same as my login pass.. wtf | 03:38 |
| clusterfusk | SushiDude: type a complete thought on one line, not 6, please | 03:38 |
| SushiDude | clusterfusk: sorry | 03:38 |
| SushiDude | and then : 5. Read the licence agreement and choose 'I Agree' to continue | 03:38 |
| KM0201 | SushiDude: you shouldn't hae to agree to any license i don't think, to burn an ISO. | 03:38 |
| mouse | dltucker, Over all what do hate the most about your acer aspire? | 03:38 |
| rinkukokiri | actually let me expand that question.. 1 What do I break if I uninstall Unity. 2 How do I force both x servers to run compiz without having to reload the window manager to produce my titlebars every login 3 how do I run separate x servers and have the ability to drag windows from one display to the other? | 03:38 |
| rww | SushiDude: That's not a spelling error, it's British English. | 03:38 |
| SolidState | SushiDude, no one cares man hahahaha! | 03:39 |
| SushiDude | rww: really.. | 03:39 |
| rww | SolidState: actually, we do. | 03:39 |
| rww | SushiDude: yes | 03:39 |
| SushiDude | fail -_- | 03:39 |
| clusterfusk | SushiDude: also, that's off-topic. this is a channel for tech support. | 03:39 |
| SolidState | epic failure. | 03:39 |
| KM0201 | SushiDude: where are you geting asked all this again? | 03:39 |
| rww | SushiDude: Don't worry about it. I moved UK to US nine years ago and it all still confuses me :) | 03:39 |
| jv_ | Hi and help! | 03:39 |
| aHardyX | Hi, I think I did something to Unity and now the title bar is not integrating with the panel. What shud I do? | 03:39 |
| SolidState | english is the worst language lol. | 03:39 |
| tanath | can anyone help me with samba? before upgrading to 11.04 i was able to mount/access my shares, but now it fails. and running smbclient asks for a password | 03:40 |
| SushiDude | KM0201: what? | 03:40 |
| joustin | I am not liking unity so far | 03:40 |
| jv_ | my proc folder is almost 3 gigs! I removed kde and installed xfce | 03:40 |
| rww | KM0201: you're misreading what they said ;) | 03:40 |
| KM0201 | rww: i guess so.. :) | 03:40 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | edbian is not longer here: well for posterity, tried that vdk on another host machine, grub still hangs on boot up | 03:40 |
| dltucker | mouse: screensize and then keyboard is small. and thirdly I guess I could use some more ram. but it runs ubuntu 11 just fine | 03:40 |
| jv_ | I thought was going to save space but it increased. | 03:40 |
| SushiDude | joustin: Then don't use it | 03:40 |
| rinkukokiri | joustin, neither did I | 03:41 |
| === jonathan__ is now known as Sailias | ||
| mouse | dltucker, How much ram do you have? | 03:41 |
| dltucker | mouse: 1 gb | 03:41 |
| rinkukokiri | 1.21 gigawatts | 03:41 |
| joustin | I have to give it a few more weeks to make sure. It took me a while to like aero | 03:41 |
| jv_ | there are many folders inside /proc with numbers and look to have the same info | 03:41 |
| dltucker | mouse: actually if I was not tied to a couple of apps i would run ubuntu on my thinkpad | 03:41 |
| Aginor | rinkukokiri, 1: unity, possibly some of the other graphical stuff. 2: enable compiz in your gnome-session (assuming you're using gnome). 3: you don't. 4: why not just choose ubuntu-classic when you login through gdm? | 03:42 |
| mouse | dltucker, What apps? | 03:42 |
| SolidState | jv_, sudo du -a /proc | sort -n -r | head -n 10 | 03:42 |
| dltucker | mouse: mostly ibm internal apps like the ibm ssct tool | 03:42 |
| dltucker | mouse: and I have yet to find an mp3/cdg karaoke program for linux... | 03:43 |
| aHardyX | Anyone knows how to solve the title bar issue in Unity? | 03:43 |
| mouse | dltucker, I see. I wouldn't know those apps so I wouldn't know a decent replacement either. | 03:43 |
| rinkukokiri | Aginor, i am using ubuntu-classic, but I would like to remove the stuff I have chosen to hate like a redheaded stepchild. | 03:43 |
| dltucker | mouse: I also have a kodak printer and afaik there is no linux driver for it.. | 03:43 |
| SolidState | dltucker, i think you can use windows printer drivers some how.... | 03:44 |
| Aginor | rinkukokiri, I find your statement offensive, and I will not be providing any help to you. Good luck with achieving your goals. | 03:44 |
| gartral | Oook.. something went completly wrong, I was writing a text doc, system suddenly rebooted, and now ubuntu is saying my keyring password is not the same as my login pass.. wtf I'm really in a fix | 03:44 |
| rinkukokiri | Aginor, and # 2. I have to actually disable compiz with compiz-fusion icon, because with it running i cannot type anything on my second monitor and have no titlebars on anything on the second monitor | 03:44 |
| dltucker | SolidState: hows that? with wine or something? | 03:44 |
| rinkukokiri | Aginor, well I do apologize but I seriously do loathe the new ui. | 03:44 |
| Logan_ | dltucker: pykaraoke | 03:44 |
| SolidState | dltucker, no... using the text type file from the drive might have run the .exe on windows to extract the file | 03:45 |
| jv_ | SolidState, thanks, but still has 2.8 gigs,,didn't got smaller | 03:45 |
| dltucker | Logan_: really? can I apt get that? | 03:45 |
| SolidState | jv_, no that will list your big files LOL | 03:45 |
| jv_ | ahahah | 03:45 |
| === sta7ic is now known as Guest14996 | ||

| tanath | can anyone help me with samba? | 03:45 |
| Logan_ | !anyone | tanath | 03:45 |
| ubottu | tanath: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 03:45 |
| SolidState | jv_, then you can find out if it is safe to delete which im not sure why anything in /proc should be that big | 03:46 |
| tanath | Logan_, tried that. no answers :P | 03:46 |
| dltucker | Allrighty then I am on a mission andnif you could only hear me wail some CCR you would be forever changed!! | 03:46 |
| mouse | dltucker, Yeah printer drivers are a pain. I know for sure cannon isn't very linux friendly at all. I don't do much karaoke but a quick apt search gave me Performous. Have you seen that yet? | 03:46 |
| SolidState | dltucker, creedence clear water revival? | 03:47 |
| Logan_ | mouse: nah, that's not what he's looking for - pykaraoke should do it | 03:47 |
| tanath | need help with samba. before upgrading to 11.04 i was able to mount/access my shares, but now it fails to mount shares. and running smbclient asks for a password | 03:47 |
| dltucker | SolidState: yes and Looking out my back door specifically | 03:47 |
| mouse | Logan_, Oh okay. Like I said I don't do it much. | 03:47 |
| jv_ | SolidState, it's faster but bigger! I created a moster! ;) | 03:48 |
| SolidState | I am a baked frankenstein monster buahahha | 03:48 |
| rww | SolidState: #ubuntu doesn't want to know about your cooking habits :( | 03:48 |
| SolidState | and who are you again...? | 03:48 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | tanath if you have anonymous access enabled on your smb share, then just hitting return on the password prompt should work | 03:49 |
| rargueta | buenas noches , alguien de habla español? | 03:49 |
| rww | !es | rargueta | 03:49 |

| rargueta | gracias | 03:49 |
| aHardyX | So no one can help me with the titlebar issue in Unity? | 03:50 |
| nbros652 | Anyone know how I can get info on network activity from a computer running ubuntu server? | 03:50 |
| tanath | sabiancrash_cgx, that helped. thanks. new error: tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME | 03:50 |
| rinkukokiri | I don't understand all this RandR talk, my Nvidia has NEVER been able to add/remove screens on the fly without stopping the x server. | 03:50 |
| ptley | nbros652: do you mean total bandwidth or | 03:50 |
| Dulak | nbros652: if you want general stats, iptraf might be what you want | 03:50 |
| * rinkukokiri just might enable xinerama just to see if previous bugs have been fixed. | 03:50 | |
| SolidState | tanath, make sure in /etc/samba/smb.conf you have guest ok = yes and browseable = yes at the bottom | 03:50 |
| SolidState | on the server that is | 03:51 |
| nbros652 | ptley: bandwidth in use | 03:51 |

| jv_ | SolidState, there is a file kcore (program crash data) with over 1 gig but it does not let me chown to root so i can delete | 03:53 |
| jv_ | what should I do? | 03:53 |
| SolidState | jv_, sudo rm filename | 03:53 |
| SolidState | rww, don't have robots send me messages, ok | 03:54 |
| tanath | SolidState, now it says my shares don't exist | 03:54 |
| rww | SolidState: Don't be offtopic in #ubuntu and I won't have ubottu tell you to not be offtopic in #ubuntu. | 03:54 |
| SolidState | I do as I please. | 03:54 |
| Dulak | It's a support channel, do as you please elsewhere. | 03:54 |
| jv_ | cannot remove kcore: operation not permitted | 03:55 |
| SolidState | seems like im the only one helping people hahaha | 03:55 |
| tanath | SolidState, there were lines with ; in front with settings i wanted enforced. i removed them, and now the shares don't show | 03:55 |
| SolidState | so go ahead and ban me | 03:55 |
| jv_ | no!!!! ahahah | 03:55 |
| rww | SolidState: are you sure? | 03:55 |
| SolidState | if you want people to not get helped go ahead. | 03:55 |
| SolidState | I don't need help with linux personally. | 03:55 |
| * rww shrugs | 03:56 | |
| gnewb | aHardyX: What is the error with that? | 03:56 |
| rww | I'm lazy. Just don't be offtopic and we'll call it good. | 03:56 |
| tanath | new topic. samba :P | 03:56 |
| SolidState | seems like people such as you scare folks away, 'nuff said. | 03:56 |
| rinkukokiri | So, twinview it is it appears. | 03:57 |
| tanath | SolidState, any other settings i should look at in conf file? | 03:57 |
| tanath | SolidState, it's rather large | 03:57 |
| SolidState | tanath, google for a basic samba.conf and tailor it to your needs pastebin it if you need help., | 03:58 |
| jv_ | how to take ownership of this kcore file? chown and chmod and sudo and su does not allow to delete it | 03:58 |
| SolidState | no, thats all you should need, unless you need to force user or group since they own the folder.......... | 03:58 |
| SolidState | oh wait, whats your security line set at | 03:58 |
| rinkukokiri | now that I have this setup how i'd like to use it.. how do I put a panel on my secondary monitor? | 03:58 |
| rinkukokiri | using twinview? | 03:58 |
| rww | jv_: /proc is a virtual file system. The files inside it are representations of system state and not actual files on your hard disk. They thus do not take up space (and as you're seeing, can't be deleted). | 03:59 |
| tanath | SolidState, samba config says "broweseable = yes" isn't understood | 03:59 |
| tanath | er, typoed didn't i? :P | 03:59 |
| SolidState | ya | 04:00 |
| SolidState | rww, good point. why does he have a huge proc though. | 04:00 |
| jv_ | rww, I think this was crash data of the KDE that I removed...The space is over 1 gig and I am almost with no space left after I removed KDE and installed xfce | 04:00 |
| rinkukokiri | wow, i just realized that a few of these guys have their bare ip's showing. | 04:00 |
| rinkukokiri | hope I don't as well ;D | 04:00 |
| SolidState | what guys? | 04:01 |
| rww | jv_: No, it isn't crash data. /proc/kcore is a file representation of the RAM in your computer. Again, it is not actually a file. | 04:01 |
| jv_ | how do I hide my ip from ping? | 04:01 |
| rinkukokiri | thought the server was supposed to run a masking algorythm on em | 04:01 |
| jv_ | ahhh! thanks. | 04:01 |
| SolidState | jv_, in your router | 04:01 |
| tanath | SolidState, what'd i do wrong? doesn't recognize 'browseable' or 'browsable' | 04:01 |
| rinkukokiri | adi_, Sniper1968 jesterwj all have their bare ip's showing | 04:02 |
| SolidState | browsable = yes | 04:02 |
| gnewb | jv_: Or get a cloak from Freenode. if you are so inclined. | 04:02 |
| rww | You can't get a cloak from freenode without a > 2 week old account. | 04:02 |
| rinkukokiri | now i'm realizing a LOT of these guise have their bare ip's showing | 04:02 |
| gnewb | whoops | 04:02 |
| SolidState | rinkukokiri, you a big hacker? | 04:02 |
| Logan_ | rww: other direction ;) | 04:02 |
| rww | rinkukokiri: That is the default on IRC, yes. | 04:02 |
| rww | Logan_: nope | 04:02 |
| rinkukokiri | i seriously thought freenode had a script to hide em | 04:03 |
| rinkukokiri | like most other servers do | 04:03 |
| HelloWorld321 | Okay I've got a problem with Samba. I can browse to "smb://127.0.0.1/", but not to "smb://localhost/"; the first line in /etc/hosts is "127.0.0.1localhost.localdomain localhost" ... what do you think of that? | 04:03 |
| SolidState | rinkukokiri, why do you keep talking about peoples ips | 04:03 |
| gnewb | !samba | 04:03 |
| ubottu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 04:03 |
| rinkukokiri | i dunno, i just thought it was interesting, so I noted it, then someone else asked whom, so I thought I would elaborate. | 04:04 |
| jv_ | well, to scare me! ;) ..I am going to check my IP settings and will be back some other time.. | 04:04 |
| jv_ | thanks a lot guys | 04:04 |
| SolidState | he isn't gonna hack anyone | 04:04 |
| rinkukokiri | and yes, I have studied professional hacking, although I have yet to finish the curriculum, and am not yet accredited | 04:04 |
| rww | It's all visible to any website you go to anyway. IP addresses are not private information. | 04:04 |
| Dulak | that is hilarious | 04:05 |
| SolidState | a professional hacker who can't fix a simple linux problem | 04:05 |
| SolidState | nice man. | 04:05 |
| SolidState | want my ip | 04:05 |
| Sniper1968 | what is mine? | 04:05 |
| rww | Sniper1968: adsl-98-84-74-154.gsp.bellsouth.net | 04:06 |
| SolidState | lol. | 04:06 |
| Sniper1968 | ok so how can i hid it | 04:06 |
| Dulak | 98.84.74.154 | 04:06 |
| SolidState | the power of right click | 04:06 |
| rinkukokiri | lol | 04:06 |
| Dulak | he cheated! I typed it | 04:06 |
| rww | Sniper1968: go to #freenode and ask for an unaffiliated cloak | 04:06 |
| rinkukokiri | see on rizon everyone has a masked ip | 04:06 |
| SolidState | im affiliated to the rollin 80's | 04:06 |
| SolidState | can i GET a rollin 80's cloak | 04:07 |
| rww | no | 04:07 |
| SolidState | why not | 04:07 |
| rinkukokiri | cause he said so | 04:07 |
| Logan_ | !ot | SolidState | 04:07 |
| ubottu | SolidState: #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! | 04:07 |
| SolidState | fizzuck that shizznat | 04:07 |
| rww | because "rollin 80's" is not a registered project with group contacts that can request one for you | 04:07 |
| tanath | SolidState, found it. reboot unmounted the folder i wanted to share. forgot about that. thanks for help | 04:07 |
| rww | anyway, go ask #freenode about freenode questions ;P | 04:07 |
| BaseBallBoy | okay so I got this oldish IBM, not sure of the model but I keep getting this: [152.021010] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempt to kill init! | 04:07 |
| SolidState | what are group contacts? | 04:07 |
| BaseBallBoy | Ubuntu 10.10 Installation | 04:07 |
| SolidState | or rather who could they be? if I so choose. | 04:07 |
| rww | SolidState: go ask #freenode ;P | 04:08 |
| SolidState | naw dude. why don't you ask on my behalf you seem to be like official or something huh? | 04:08 |
| rinkukokiri | SolidState, and dragging windows between separate x servers isn't a "simple linux problem" | 04:08 |
| gyyrog | when running netstat -r, when you have a route and the gateway is listed as just "*" what does that mean? | 04:08 |
| rinkukokiri | although neither is databending my windows 7 install so I can recover lost music, | 04:08 |
| rinkukokiri | but that's offtopic. | 04:08 |
| SolidState | databending? | 04:08 |
| rinkukokiri | yep.. opening random files with an audio editor. | 04:09 |
| SolidState | huh... | 04:09 |
| Dulak | gyyrog: * is anywhere aka 0.0.0.0 | 04:09 |

| SolidState | I sometimes eat it while using ubuntu. | 04:12 |
| gyyrog | Dulak: so basically that route just means "on this subnet" | 04:12 |
| rinkukokiri | i say ubuntu while frying chicken.. does that count? | 04:12 |
| === areli is now known as john-doe | ||
| Dulak | gyyrog: if it's the gateway it means 'on this machine' afaik | 04:13 |

| Gskellig | yeah raju "ubuntu" is unity and "ubuntu classic" is gnome | 04:29 |
| Gskellig | i choose "ubuntu" | 04:29 |
| Gskellig | but still no unity | 04:29 |
| KaosMcRage | how do you install a package from a particular repository if it exists in multiple repositories (using apt)? | 04:29 |

| BaseBallBoy | screw it, debian installed just fine, thanks for the no help you guys, can always depend on you! | 04:30 |
| Raikia | Gskellig: try "killall mutter" | 04:30 |
| hiexpo | KaosMcRage, install the version you want | 04:30 |
| Raikia | its like doing a "killall gnome-panel", but for unity | 04:30 |
| Raikia | it auto-restarts | 04:30 |
| Gskellig | killall mutter? | 04:31 |
| Raikia | yes | 04:31 |
| Raikia | did it do anything? | 04:31 |
| Gskellig | mutter: no process found | 04:31 |
| Gskellig | i did unity --reset earlier and rebooted | 04:32 |
| Gskellig | nothing either | 04:32 |
| Raikia | try just "mutter" (if its a command) | 04:32 |
| Gskellig | not currently installed? | 04:32 |
| Raikia | :-/ | 04:32 |
| KaosMcRage | hiexpo: yeah, I guess that's what I'm asking - how? | 04:32 |
| Gskellig | should i install it? | 04:32 |
| Raikia | no | 04:33 |
| Raikia | hold on | 04:33 |
| Gskellig | i have gnome | 04:33 |
| Gskellig | just not unity | 04:33 |
| Raikia | are you using natty? or did you install unity on a different version? | 04:33 |
| Gskellig | natty | 04:33 |
| Gskellig | 11.04 x64 | 04:34 |
| Gskellig | i had unity with the livecd | 04:34 |
| Gskellig | the livecd that i used to install ... =\ | 04:34 |
| KaosMcRage | hiexpo: nvm, got it - missed it in the man page somehow | 04:34 |
| Raikia | Gskellig: try typing "unity" command? | 04:34 |
| Raikia | pastebin (or paste) any errors | 04:34 |
| Raikia | or the entire output, if you want | 04:34 |
| Gskellig | screen flashes a bunch | 04:35 |
| Gskellig | then back to normal gnome | 04:35 |
| Gskellig | ill pastebin | 04:35 |

| gartral | john-doe: yes I am | 04:35 |
| Gskellig | http://pastebin.com/1SjCQyw1 | 04:35 |
| Gskellig | notice the "there is alredy one running" when i did unity --replace i got the same errors | 04:36 |
| Gskellig | but gnome was unuseable after that | 04:36 |
| Raikia | hmm | 04:36 |
| Raikia | do you have a nvidia graphics card? | 04:36 |
| Gskellig | i do | 04:37 |
| Gskellig | but | 04:37 |
| Gskellig | it's disabled | 04:37 |
| john-doe | gartral: what version are you using? | 04:37 |
| Gskellig | my laptop has two gfx cards, switchable under windows | 04:37 |
| Gskellig | nvidia one is disabled | 04:37 |
| gartral | John-doe: 11.04 | 04:37 |
| Gskellig | for power saving | 04:37 |
| Raikia | ok, hold on | 04:37 |
| rinkukokiri | Gskellig, so it's 'like' a docked card, when you're using ac power it's on but on battery you got some low power one | 04:38 |
| Raikia | Gskellig: Now, does it should you a normal gnome desktop interface? or just, like, a background picture? | 04:38 |
| john-doe | gartral: are you using the gnome classic desktop? | 04:39 |
| Gskellig | rinkukokiri, not really... on windows you can press a button and switch, its not automatic | 04:39 |
| gartral | John-doe: yes I am | 04:39 |
| Gskellig | Raikia, its normal gnome | 04:39 |

| Raikia | Gskellig: It might be because it detects that your computer doesnt have the specifications required to run unity, so it goes to gnome | 04:40 |
| Gskellig | but it does.. unity ran fine on the livecd and the last time i installed unity... | 04:41 |
| Raikia | Gskellig: Because it does do that. | 04:41 |
| gartral | John-doe please stand by, gotta reboot | 04:41 |
| Gskellig | i installed ubuntu with wubi and it worked fine | 04:41 |
| john-doe | gartral: ok | 04:41 |
| Raikia | But was it using your other graphics card? | 04:41 |
| Gskellig | decided to go "real" ubuntu and now its broken | 04:41 |
| Gskellig | nope | 04:41 |
| Gskellig | i had the nvidia card completely disabled | 04:41 |
| kamran1 | real ? | 04:42 |
| Raikia | Gskellig: Go to System -> Administration -> Additional Drivers. Are any listed (that say "not used") | 04:42 |
| rinkukokiri | real = no unity? | 04:42 |
| rinkukokiri | cause if so, i agree. | 04:43 |
| Gskellig | nvidia accelerated graphics driver | 04:43 |
| Gskellig | but if i install that, it'll activite my nvidia card | 04:43 |

| semitones | Hey everyone, I'm having trouble booting up my laptop. This is a video I took from my cell phone (opens in vlc) could anyone see if they recognize what's goingn on? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/384735/Boot.3g2 | 04:43 |
| Raikia | Gskellig: If natty is booting into a full gnome environment, it definitely is detecting your hardware is incapable to run unity. My only thought is that the LiveCD auto-activated your other graphics card, and wubi read your Windows configuration to get access to the graphics cards (so it was mis-interpreted) | 04:44 |
| gartral | John-doe I am missing encryption and keyrings alltogether | 04:44 |
| alokito | I can't play any movies with kaffeine in natty? | 04:44 |
| Raikia | Gskellig: I'm not a professional at this at all....I'm just trying to help :-/ | 04:44 |
| alokito | whats the problem? | 04:44 |
| Gskellig | thanks =/ | 04:44 |
| Gskellig | by default the nvidia card is disabled, but turned "on" | 04:45 |
| new2net | I had an error that said unity couldn't run with my hardware... I'm using unity right now | 04:45 |
| gnewb | Raikia: Good call, I agree with that one. | 04:45 |
| Raikia | Gskellig: My only suggestion is to install that nvidia driver, see if it works with it, and then uninstall it if it doesnt | 04:45 |
| Gskellig | so with the livecd it was using the intel card | 04:45 |
| Raikia | Gskellig: The LiveCD auto-activates drivers that your computer needs | 04:45 |
| Gskellig | installing that driver would open up a whole new world of problems for me =/ | 04:45 |
| Raikia | So it might have read your graphics card, and activated it. | 04:45 |
| Raikia | Gskellig: why? | 04:45 |
| Gskellig | the nvidia card on my laptop cant be activated unless i force off the intel one in the bios | 04:46 |
| Gskellig | at least on linux | 04:46 |
| Gskellig | it can be "turned on" but not displayed | 04:46 |
| kamran1 | when i install lubuntu i opted for L Display Manager. now i am required to key in password each time i log in. i want to save the password like GDM with automatic login. i prefer lubuntu. any bright ideas ? | 04:46 |
| Gskellig | just sits there eating power, idling | 04:46 |
| alokito | how do I get kaffeine to work? :( | 04:46 |
| gartral | John-doe found it under passwords and encryption keys | 04:46 |
| Raikia | :-/ Unfortunately, my suggestion is to try it...but its up to you. I might be wrong....but unity should boot if your hardware supports it (which obviously the culprit is your graphics card) | 04:46 |
| Gskellig | it just sucks because i KNOW unity works with my intel card | 04:47 |

| rjaguar3_ | My compiz just crashed and I managed to get to tty, so does anyone have any directions on troubleshooting it? (I have the dmesg file.) | 05:29 |
| Guest64472 | how to install inventory editor on minecraft linux | 05:30 |
| celthunder | sabiancrash_cgx: sounds right though that it'd need to interface with something else for the ipod | 05:30 |
| fission6 | how can i see whats running on port 5050 | 05:30 |
| researcher123 | does anyone know how to install tar.bz2? | 05:30 |
| braiam | how can I execute a flash binary? | 05:30 |
| celthunder | fission6: netstat? | 05:30 |
| lsv | tar xjf file.tar.bx2 | 05:31 |
| celthunder | researcher123: extract it tar xjf <file> then cd to the new dir and read the readme/install file most likely ./configure make make install | 05:31 |
| researcher123 | celthunder: ok.thanks | 05:31 |
| fission6 | celthunder, doesn't really show anything intuitive | 05:31 |
| lsv | then cd to new directory... what celthunder said | 05:31 |
| boxbeatsy | hi, does anyone know how i can fix out of sync audio and video in an avi file? i've tried vlc player's syncrhonization but it doesn't seem to be doing anything at al. | 05:31 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | I would be interested in the dmesg | tail -f when you plug in your ipod touch | 05:31 |
| arovij | Hi .. don't know if this is the right channel....... I want to detect fd leaks... I went to /proc/pid/fd/ ........ there a lot of empty files.. what does that mean? | 05:32 |
| celthunder | boxbeatsy: mplayer lets you as you play it set off timings for vidoe/audio until it sounds right...not sure if it'll let you change the file though...use a video editor ? | 05:32 |
| mesaber | I played with ubuntu's settings and I want to set it back, how do I? | 05:32 |
| celthunder | fission6: what options did you supply to it | 05:33 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | looks like a lot of good info here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone | 05:33 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | unfortunately doesn't appear to be straight forward | 05:33 |
| fission6 | none - i guess thats the question i should ask | 05:33 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | another good site: http://www.libimobiledevice.org/ | 05:33 |
| celthunder | fission6: man netstat shows -c provides progam name -n numeric and -L is listen if i'm not mistaken (doing these off te top of my head ...those three with a simple grep shoykd orovide what you want | 05:34 |
| albino | need advice. Trying to install 10.4.2 from a usb drive created with usb-creator-gtk. I want to use the cli install, but when I type cli at the grub boot prompt I get 'Could not find kernel image: cli' | 05:34 |
| Omega | (I think we're currently using libimobildevice) | 05:34 |
| rhin0 | viva ubuntu!!! | 05:34 |
| mesaber | how do I reset ubuntu,compiz settings? | 05:34 |
| celthunder | albino: pass 3 along after kernel in grub to get to cli | 05:35 |
| CFC | nothing of that helped me =/ | 05:35 |
| pishguy | mesaber: you can remove .gconf in home directory | 05:35 |
| lsv | mesaber: System -> Preferences -> compiz ... | 05:35 |
| arovij | what do the empty files in /proc/pid/fd/ mean? thanks | 05:35 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | dantheman73: unfortunately, I am afraid the answer is not simple | 05:36 |
| albino | celthunder: so at the grub boot prompt: install 3 ? | 05:36 |
| lsv | mesaber: then on that windows click Preferences (by the lower right hand corner) | 05:36 |
| celthunder | CFC: ? so...an sshd is running...on port 22...and you have sshd: ALLOW in hosts.allow and iptables is not blocking it...is it in the same subnet as the client? (or are they networkedtogether at least) | 05:36 |
| CFC | Celthunder: can anything of this have to do with that i encrypted my folders? | 05:36 |
| lsv | mesaber: then Reset to defaults | 05:36 |
| celthunder | CFC: no | 05:36 |
| lsv | mesaber: I think that should work | 05:37 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | dantheman73: however, if you are initiated and desire to learn more of linux, look at the links I posted along with google. My only 2nd gen ipod is currently disassembled for a jack replacement | 05:37 |
| celthunder | albino: no...enter a kernel and then add a 3 to it so kernel <kernel image> 3 | 05:37 |
| fission6 | well my apt-get install of rabbitmq is freezine, which means i have all these weird processes hanging - is there a clean way to kill this and all the subprocess generated? | 05:37 |
| dantheman73 | Jordan_U: sorry for the delay. Im using Natty Narwal | 05:37 |
| CFC | when i try connect with putty it talls me conection refused | 05:37 |
| dantheman73 | ...took me a litle while to find that out. my apologies for the delay. | 05:37 |
| dantheman73 | by "not that simple" do you mean it wont work? | 05:38 |
| fission6 | killall rabbitmq doesnt work | 05:38 |
| lsv | has anyone seen my tv remote? | 05:38 |
| lsv | oh wait wrong room... | 05:38 |
| CFC | its actully saying the same when i try connect to my FTP on it =/ | 05:38 |
| celthunder | CFC that would be apparent.. | 05:38 |
| CFC | oki | 05:39 |
| celthunder | CFC: are they on the ame network? able to contact each other (aka not natted seperately | 05:39 |
| CFC | the FTP and SSH is on same server | 05:39 |
| celthunder | lsv: yes ...i just sat on it damn bastard stop leaving it lying around | 05:39 |
| CFC | but i can not get ahold of any files or anything | 05:39 |
| pishguy | hi all whats my script problem : http://paste.debian.net/118636/ | 05:40 |
| celthunder | CFC: ...can you not provide useless statements and answer the questions..before i commit suicide trying to help you | 05:40 |
| dantheman73 | cellthunder: hahahahahaha | 05:40 |
| lsv | celthunder: sorry about that | 05:40 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | hot damn: http://virtualboxes.org/images/ubuntu/ <-- lets see if I can boot one of their 9.04 images | 05:40 |
| dantheman73 | im sorry for that outburst....but that was kinda funny | 05:40 |
| CFC | ohh same network ye | 05:40 |
| fission6 | ok one final time, if a package install freezes and i have all these hanging process how can i kill them | 05:41 |
| celthunder | fission6: killall | 05:41 |
| celthunder | fission6: or pgrep <program> and pass it along to kill -9 | 05:41 |
| fission6 | doesn't work, well maybe i am doing the wrong killall | 05:41 |
| celthunder | kill -9 then...idk what killall sends by default as i generally try not to use it... kill -9 pretty much forces it to die... | 05:42 |
| celthunder | lsv: lol i was jokin with ya... | 05:42 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | dantheman73: no, quite contrary, I think you can get it to work but explaining each step to you over irc for a process I have not performed before on a machine that could be in an unknown configuration, well, thats what I mean by not simple | 05:42 |
| CFC | hmm they are on same network but i dont know if they connect with each other | 05:42 |
| celthunder | CFC: do you have icmp disabled/blocked on either one via firewall? if not try ping / traceroute... | 05:43 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | dantheman73: unfornately "how do I get my ipod to work" I am afraid is not going to be a simple matter of just run these couple of commands and it should just work | 05:43 |
| fission6 | oh i see rabbitmq has a bunch of processesing running as the user rabbitmq, how can i kill all those? | 05:43 |
| IcemanV9 | CFC: is the firewall open for ssh (22)? to find out by typing sudo ufw status | 05:43 |
| lsv | celthunder: i knew that.. thanks for finding it :D | 05:43 |
| celthunder | IcemanV9: he said it was earlier i asked him | 05:44 |
| fission6 | there has to been a more sane approach then ps -ef | grep rabbitmq and killing them one by one | 05:44 |
| CFC | status inactiv | 05:44 |
| celthunder | fission6: uhm one sec | 05:44 |
| fission6 | ok | 05:44 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | plus I am going into hour 5 of working on restoring this server so I don't have more than cursory attention available | 05:44 |
| fission6 | i am using htop, i thought killing the parent based on the tree view would work but it didnt | 05:44 |
| IcemanV9 | ok celthunder | 05:44 |
| dantheman73 | sabiancrash: oh ok thanks, my bad if i was expecting too much. | 05:45 |
| dantheman73 | honestly i think im gonna go back to windows | 05:45 |
| wxl | how can one make a fat16 partition? | 05:45 |
| IcemanV9 | CFC: ping the server like celthunder said earlier | 05:45 |
| dantheman73 | linux is a bit faster but its really quite worthless since its not compatible with anything | 05:45 |
| celthunder | fission6: pkill -u <uid> | 05:45 |
| fission6 | how do i know which uid to use? | 05:45 |
| fission6 | sorry | 05:45 |
| celthunder | dantheman73: you're not compatible with anything...ipods are the least compatible with anything...and both are quite a bit worth less than linux | 05:46 |
| celthunder | fission6: the one of the user with all the processes | 05:46 |
| CFC | what was the command for that now | 05:46 |
| celthunder | CFC: ping <ip> | 05:46 |
| dantheman73 | cell thunder: haha dont be rude man. Look you gotta see this from my perspective; | 05:46 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | dantheman73: Let me just say this. Its apple's business strategy to support only a closed garden of environments. Breaking out of that garden is fun for the initiated but daunting to the unexperienced....BY DESIGN. If you really want linux compatibility, I would get an device that will natively support being placed into mass storage mode | 05:46 |
| celthunder | fission6: echo $UID shows the current users uid...also should be listed in /etc/passwd... i'm sure theres other ways | 05:47 |
| CFC | is any ip good? | 05:47 |
| dantheman73 | everytime i try and download an app from ubuntu i get that "dependency" issue and it wont work, and the one thing that i actually use my computer for (ipod) wont work. I guess linux is cool if your into programing and coding and stuff, but im not a computer-savy person. | 05:47 |
| celthunder | CFC:....are you deliberately trying to kill us...use the one of your server | 05:47 |
| IcemanV9 | CFC: no. the ip address of the server that you tried to ssh/ftp | 05:48 |
| tensorpudding | dantheman73: dependency issue? | 05:48 |
| fission6 | ok let me try thanks | 05:48 |
| wxl | package management <> dependency issue .. hmmm .. | 05:48 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | dantheman73: my girlfriend has no idea about computers and uses ubuntu as her main OS, she has no idea that its a leet hacker thing | 05:48 |
| dantheman73 | i wasnt trying to insult anyone, im just saying that ubuntu seems a bit impractical...it seems much harder to use for me thats all. Im sorry if i offended. | 05:48 |
| wxl | there's things os x doesn't play with well | 05:49 |
| wxl | and there's things windows doesn't play with well | 05:49 |
| tensorpudding | dantheman73: could you say a little more about what this dependency issue you have is | 05:49 |
| dantheman73 | sabian: yes im aware apple is infamous for locking their devices. its unfortunate and quite irratating. but i cant go out and buy a new device thats compatible with linux....i dont have that kind of $ | 05:49 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | dantheman73: its not a problem. it just doesn't have enough of a userbase for all commercial companies especially those with their own OS they are trying to push, to support | 05:49 |
| fission6 | that seemed to work thanks celthunder - i really need to learn process management it just never makes sense to me in linux | 05:49 |
| CFC | says 64 byte | 05:49 |
| fission6 | how to close out all processes or find whats running | 05:49 |
| dantheman73 | sabian: thanks and yes i agree. | 05:49 |
| celthunder | CFC: packet loss? or did they get responses | 05:50 |
| celthunder | fission6: ps auxf | 05:50 |
| tensorpudding | dantheman73: also i'm pretty sure the ipod is supported | 05:50 |
| fission6 | yea i know but that takes some digging through too and then to kill things - i dont know just is a hairy operation | 05:50 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | dantheman73: I suggest running sudo apt-get -f install | 05:50 |
| celthunder | fission6: man ps man pgrep and man kill and following the recommended ones at the bottom are a good place to start for process management also useful is nice and renice | 05:50 |
| dantheman73 | tensor pudding: whenever i try and download anything (amarok for example) i get an error msg that says "package dependencies cannot be resolved" | 05:50 |
| w30 | Linux sets you free; Free to shoot yourself and your operating system!! | 05:50 |
| fission6 | thanks | 05:51 |
| tensorpudding | dantheman73: can you be more specific about what happened? screenshot? | 05:51 |
| fission6 | how do i show ps auxf and page through it, the results are to be and get cut off | 05:51 |
| w30 | I just shot mine; I killed Unity | 05:51 |
| dantheman73 | sure. how do i put a screenshot into this chat box thought? | 05:51 |
| CFC | seems like they get responce | 05:51 |
| celthunder | w30: rm -rf / is always fun :) (provided /home isn't mounted) | 05:51 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | all software has issues, the lines at the genius bar and geeksquad are perfect examples | 05:51 |
| dantheman73 | and sabian thanks for your help and commentary. il try that command now. | 05:51 |
| IsmAvatar | Trying to live boot ubuntu, but it never gets past the Ubuntu .... loading screen. When I press Delete, it says "Unable to open '/dev/sda'". Why would it want to open my hard drive for a live boot? | 05:51 |
| CFC | it hyst continues pinging | 05:51 |
| celthunder | CFC: ok that's good... | 05:51 |
| CFC | just* | 05:52 |
| tensorpudding | dantheman73: you can put it on imagebin.org | 05:52 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | like any technology.....look at the number of people outside the oilchange place, changing your own oil is not hard but most people don't have a clue | 05:52 |
| fission6 | is it okay to have more than 1 hostname entry in /etc/hostname? how does that work? such as www.sometie.com and 127.0.0.1 | 05:52 |
| celthunder | sabiancrash_cgx: lol i suck at cars and even i can do it... | 05:52 |
| tensorpudding | um, don't put 127.0.0.1 in your /etc/hostname | 05:52 |
| dantheman73 | tensorpudding: okay just give me one second | 05:52 |
| celthunder | fission6: you mean /etc/hosts right... | 05:53 |
| fission6 | right | 05:53 |
| robinsch | i want to remove 2 directories and I user: rm -rf {temp, personal} | 05:53 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | which is fine but when you need to get service or knowledge you don't have, it generally costs money | 05:53 |
| robinsch | it doesn't work | 05:53 |
| * sabiancrash_cgx goes back to grub hell | 05:53 | |
| celthunder | fission6: then yes...put as many as you want it's for your use | 05:53 |
| CFC | how do i stop the pinging x.x | 05:53 |
| IcemanV9 | CFC: ctrl+c to stop ping if you haven't done already | 05:53 |
| celthunder | robinsch: do you have permissions | 05:53 |
| robinsch | yes | 05:53 |
| CFC | ahh ^^ | 05:53 |
| fission6 | how does it work though, i dont understand, like i think rabbitmq isn't working because of this issue, http://www.rabbitmq.com/ec2.html host name section | 05:54 |
| robinsch | can i use that syntax? | 05:54 |
| w30 | celthunder, seardh for rm -rf / on youtube for fun videos | 05:54 |
| robinsch | i get no error etc | 05:54 |
| IcemanV9 | CFC: did you get "0% packet loss" ? | 05:54 |
| fission6 | oh i see there is host and hostname? celthunder | 05:54 |
| lsv | robinsch: why don't you just delete one at a time? | 05:54 |
| CFC | yes | 05:55 |
| celthunder | w30: lol yeah i do it all the time when i'm bored and don't mind rebuilding...unmount /home and ...go nuts...also fun is writing stuff to the framebuffer | 05:55 |
| celthunder | fission6: yes /etc/hosts is what you want | 05:55 |
| fission6 | ok | 05:55 |
| robinsch | lsv it is a question in my unix textbook | 05:55 |
| dantheman73 | tensorpudding: ok its uploaded to imagebin | 05:55 |
| dantheman73 | just look at the most recent, you'll recognize it | 05:55 |
| lsv | robinsch: aaaa... | 05:55 |
| CFC | is that good or bad =/ ? | 05:55 |
| celthunder | CFC: ok good now use openssl to connect or ssh -vvvv does it show any more details | 05:55 |
| robinsch | i don't know when i will ever need this | 05:55 |
| celthunder | CFC: good | 05:55 |
| fission6 | how does an app like rabbitmq pick up on the proper hosts if there are many entries, maybe thats my question | 05:55 |
| celthunder | robinsch: we don't answer your homework... | 05:56 |
| tensorpudding | dantheman73: odd | 05:56 |
| lsv | robinsch: try man bash for info | 05:56 |
| robinsch | :/ | 05:56 |
| IcemanV9 | CFC: it's good. is the ssh daemon running on the server? | 05:56 |
| celthunder | fission6: what's rabbit mq | 05:56 |
| CFC | im useing windows on my main computer | 05:56 |
| tensorpudding | dantheman73: do you have any odd PPA's set | 05:56 |
| fission6 | its a ququing system | 05:56 |
| lsv | robinsch: skim through it, don't read the whole thing | 05:56 |
| celthunder | CFC: then use telnet | 05:56 |
| robinsch | ok | 05:56 |
| CFC | but how do i get known ice? | 05:57 |
| fission6 | but its having trouble resolving the host? http://www.rabbitmq.com/ec2.html my issue is "Issues with hostname" in this section | 05:57 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | dantheman73: I suggest running sudo apt-get -f install | 05:57 |
| robinsch | lsv it is kind of big | 05:57 |
| celthunder | fission6: ok one moment | 05:57 |
| Wyvern666 | hey, i fucked up something in mi ubuntu, i get "... is not in the sudoers list..." | 05:57 |
| fission6 | it wants me to echo "127.0.0.1 rabbit" >> /etc/hosts celthunder but i dont see how rabbitmq knows to pick up on it | 05:57 |
| IcemanV9 | CFC: type: ls /var/run/ssh* | 05:57 |
| tensorpudding | dantheman73: that version of amarok isn't the one in the standard repos, i don't think | 05:57 |
| celthunder | fission6: lol it's system wide ... | 05:57 |
| IcemanV9 | CFC: if it's there, then you should be able to ssh via putty | 05:58 |
| fission6 | i am confused though how rabbitmq parses this file and uses it | 05:58 |
| celthunder | fission6: ok open up that file /etc/hosts... the first line should be 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost | 05:58 |
| celthunder | fission6: if it's NOT change it to that and then add rabbit to it | 05:58 |
| fission6 | it is | 05:58 |
| dantheman73 | tensor: haha yea it happens with legit almost every app i try and get. and Im not sure what you mean by "odd PPAs", sorry. and i just ran that sudo apt-get -f install thing....now what? | 05:58 |
| lsv | robinsch: I'll read and see if I find anything | 05:58 |
| celthunder | fission6: no...it's what the network uses...if you ping rabbit it hsould return 127.0.0.1 | 05:58 |
| robinsch | lsv, i didn't see much | 05:58 |
| dantheman73 | and if thats not the regular amarok where can i get it? iv tried everywhere, including a google search | 05:58 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | dantheman73: what was the output when you ran that on the terminal | 05:58 |
| fission6 | oh ok well this is the first line "127.0.0.1 localhost" | 05:58 |
| celthunder | fission6: if you added google.com to the list with an ip you could direct all traffic to a different ip that's mean for google.com | 05:58 |
| moosoft | hello all. Just started to migrate from Windows7 to Ubuntu 11.04 and I'm running into problems copying files off the old ntfs partitions. I get "Error splicing file: Input/output error" | 05:59 |
| celthunder | fission6: change it to localhost.localdomain localhost rabbit | 05:59 |
| tensorpudding | dantheman73: can you open your /etc/apt/sources.list file and put it on a pastebin? | 05:59 |
| celthunder | fission6: leave the 127.0.0.1 alone though | 05:59 |

| fission6 | is this the equivlent to what the docs are describing celthunder | 05:59 |
| dantheman73 | sabiancrash: would you like me to copy and paste the output? id feel bad doing so cause i dont wanna polute the chat box or anything. \ | 05:59 |
| lsv | robinsch: reading man bash | 05:59 |
| CFC | can not access /var/run/ssh* no such file or directory | 05:59 |
| robinsch | i got all the questions this one seems every easy, but now I am stuck | 05:59 |
| celthunder | fission6: from what you've said that's what you need to do i'll open the docs if it doesn't work after you do that | 06:00 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | dantheman73: no use the pastebin. Type !pastebin for instructions | 06:00 |
| dantheman73 | tensorpudding: Im sorry sir but I dont know what any of that means, and i dont know how to open any of those or where to find them | 06:00 |
| Wyvern666 | can someone help me to own mi system again?, i cant root anymore | 06:00 |
| uragan | what process need to kill? | 06:00 |
| dantheman73 | ok il type that pastebin thing in the terminal | 06:00 |
| celthunder | Wyvern666: do you have physical access? | 06:00 |
| tensorpudding | dantheman73: it's a text file | 06:00 |
| Wyvern666 | [celthunder] yes | 06:00 |
| fission6 | celthunder, docs simply say echo "rabbit" > /etc/hostname, echo "127.0.0.1 rabbit" >> /etc/hosts, hostname -F /etc/hostname | 06:00 |
| celthunder | uragan: pgrep air* | 06:00 |
| robinsch | i will give propper attributions to anyone who helps me | 06:00 |
| tensorpudding | dantheman73: pastebin is like imagebin for text | 06:00 |
| robinsch | on my assignment | 06:01 |
| celthunder | fission6: do what i said and then hostname rabbit | 06:01 |
| pishguy | after installing SAINO MOBILE DIGITAL MDTV RECIVER in ubuntu with kaffeine i dont have any audio. why? | 06:01 |
| fission6 | add rabbit to hostname? | 06:01 |
| celthunder | Wyvern666: at grub add a 1 to the end of the kernel line...it'll log you in as root | 06:01 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | dantheman73: no you type it here | 06:01 |

| Gskellig | wols_, I think my problem with unity is that my graphics card is using the wrong driver | 06:17 |
| MinusSeven | Hi, I installed the nvidia driver, Unity works fine, but after I reboot, nvidia isn't installed properly. | 06:17 |
| celthunder | faryshta: so chroot if you want a pure 64 bit system with 32 shit seperate or like i said install 32 bit libraries | 06:17 |
| wols_ | MinusSeven: what error? and how did you install the driver? | 06:17 |
| faryshta | celthunder, which are those libraries you mention? I searched flash on synaptic and installed everything that looked like adobe flash. | 06:17 |
| wols_ | Gskellig: what videocard? | 06:17 |
| Gskellig | Intel GMA x4500MHD | 06:17 |
| Gskellig | which is clearly supported with unity, based on their website | 06:18 |
| celthunder | faryshta: lol uhm idk i'm not on ubuntu and i use a chroot...don't install the 64 bit flash prerelease...that's old | 06:18 |
| lsv | did that person with the /etc/sudoer file return? | 06:18 |
| Gskellig | but its using a weird driver | 06:18 |
| faryshta | celthunder, kbrosnan stupid me. I rebooted firefox and now I have flash. | 06:18 |
| MinusSeven | I installed using the Additional drivers, when I try to run nvidia config, it says xconf.org or whatever it is needs a device line | 06:18 |

| wols_ | Gskellig: what weird driver? | 06:18 |
| CFC | =/ i dont get why its saying this now | 06:18 |

| ubottu | celthunder: While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. | 06:36 |
| celthunder | kbrown_ probably because you don't know what to ask or how you want your mail server setup.... linode.com/community has a few decent ones....theres also some good ones if you search for vitrualp2.html that's actually form debian like 4.0 but the main setup still owrks and is good with a few tweaks | 06:36 |

| wols_ | j0el0g: / is your root directory. and that's where you moved the file. you wanted to acutally use ~/ as ActionParsnip told you | 06:40 |
| ActionParsnip | j0el0g: look in the root of your filesystem. If the command you showed is what you ran then it will be there | 06:40 |
| wols_ | j0el0g: and you are not supposed to use sudo while copying or moving files inside your home directory. bad habit and very very dangerous since a small typo like yours can erase your whole system | 06:40 |
| ActionParsnip | celthunder: true but technically every question could be responded to in that way... | 06:41 |
| CFC | i think im done whith this....... its not letting me get java and those /msg ubottu java /msg ubottu partner didnt help | 06:42 |
| Gskellig | wols_, i think i had a breakthrough here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/768656 | 06:43 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 768656 in unity (Ubuntu) "Unity doesn't load on Acer 1810TZ GMA 4500MHD" [Undecided,Invalid] | 06:43 |
| wols_ | CFC: as you've been told you need to add partner to your sources.list and then it will happily install sun java | 06:43 |
| sabgenton | whats the quickest way to turn off x | 06:43 |
| CFC | sources.list? | 06:43 |
| wols_ | CFC: and /msg ubottu partner tells you the exact command to run even to dothat | 06:43 |
| celthunder | sabgenton: telinit 3 | 06:43 |
| sabgenton | and is there a way to not load X by adding to a grub line? | 06:43 |
| wols_ | sabgenton: you mean on boot, so it doesn't boot into X? | 06:43 |
| sabgenton | ok 3 to a grub line | 06:44 |
| celthunder | sabgenton: yes add 3 to the kernel line | 06:44 |
| wols_ | sabgenton: no, you can't do it by editing grub | 06:44 |
| Gskellig | rebooting | 06:44 |
| Gskellig | brb | 06:44 |
| celthunder | sabgenton: add 3 to the kernel line or in /etc/inittab change the default to 3 | 06:44 |
| sabgenton | celthunder: allready tryed must have done the wrong line | 06:44 |
| celthunder | sabgenton: init=3 if just 3 doesn't work | 06:44 |

| celthunder | sabgenton: make a udisks/udev rule | 06:46 |
| dtsund | Are some repository mirrors down? | 06:46 |

| sabgenton | celthunder: telinit 3 didn't work | 06:49 |
| IcemanV9 | CFC: type: add-apt-re (hit tab) .. if it completes the whole word, then it should work | 06:49 |
| celthunder | sabgenton: apparently syn-ack has a better solution....and stupid crap like that's hwy i don't ues ubuntu on my desktop | 06:49 |
| CFC | nope | 06:50 |
| sabgenton | yeah I tought init was dififerent now | 06:50 |
| syn-ack | celthunder, you've got to disable it in Upstart. | 06:50 |
| syn-ack | So yeah, I do have a better solution. | 06:50 |
| sabgenton | syn-ack: how do i just turn of x | 06:50 |
| sabgenton | while it's runing | 06:51 |
| sabgenton | I though upstart had changed the old school | 06:51 |
| syn-ack | while it's running? sudo service x stop | 06:51 |
| IcemanV9 | CFC: what? it's part of apt-get stuff. | 06:51 |
| syn-ack | iirc | 06:51 |
| IcemanV9 | CFC: lsb_release -sc | 06:52 |
| linux_hacks | Trond: try installing ExtractNow on wine | 06:52 |

| Ricoshady | is the linux filesystem timestamp, create or modified? | 07:00 |
| linux_hacks | Ricoshady: what do you mean by create or modified? | 07:00 |
| Ricoshady | is the timestamp, you see with ls, the created date for the file, or the last time it was modified? | 07:00 |
| wols_ | Ricoshady: the one you normally see is mtime | 07:01 |
| CFC | is there anything els i need? | 07:01 |
| arand | Ricoshady: You can view them all via "stat" | 07:01 |
| wols_ | alvinPH: define "make androidx86" | 07:01 |

| alvinPH | what i mean is , can i run androidOSx86 from a live USB? | 07:02 |
| Ricoshady | arand. i want to use find, to find all session files that haven't been modified in the last 7 days | 07:02 |

| celthunder | alvinPH: yes | 07:03 |
| MK`` | Is the workspace switcher panel widget the only way for me to edit the number and arrangement of workspaces? | 07:03 |
| IcemanV9 | CFC: i don't have java on this box ... java -version | 07:03 |
| alvinPH | because i'm running ubuntu and i dont want ubuntu to be removed thats why i'm just testing androidOS | 07:04 |
| CFC | that worked | 07:04 |

| IcemanV9 | CFC: type history in the terminal it will show all commands if you don't remember | 07:07 |
| wols_ | gueriLLaPunK: you don't have access right. need to use sudo | 07:07 |
| MK`` | ok wols_ thanks. Can you see my previous question too please? | 07:07 |
| wols_ | gueriLLaPunK: or run thunar via gksudo/sux/etc | 07:07 |
| gueriLLaPunK | how do i use sudo if im in a gui? | 07:07 |

| dtsund | (Err, more 404 errors.) | 07:09 |
| wols_ | dtsund: apt-get update first. http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libncursesw5-dev&searchon=names&suite=natty§ion=all as you can see there is no package from 2009 in natty, but 2010. your sources.list or that mirror is outdated | 07:10 |

| tomek_ | what is good antivirus for ubuntu | 07:11 |
| wols_ | !antivirus | 07:12 |
| ubottu | Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 07:12 |

| rkirian | trying to upgrade/update ubuntu, while keeping the existing kernel at 2.6.28-11-server-- can someone help me? | 07:12 |
| wols_ | dtsund: "jaunty" looks like a big pointer why there is a problem | 07:12 |
| wols_ | tomek_: you don't need a firewall either | 07:13 |
| tomek_ | dont need? | 07:13 |
| wols_ | !errors | rkirian | 07:13 |
| ubottu | rkirian: If you have problems or errors, you will need to describe/paste them. Please use the !pastebin for errors that cannot be quoted in a single IRC message | 07:13 |
| arand | !firewall | tomek_ | 07:13 |
| ubottu | tomek_: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Gufw (GNOME) and Guarddog (KDE Lucid and Maverick) also exist. | 07:13 |

| dtsund | Well... upgrading on this connection will probably take several days. | 07:16 |

| dtsund | I'd hoped to avoid it. | 07:16 |
| jhala | what is happening with gmail .it not opening with firefox or opera~~~~~~~~~!!!!!!!!!!!! | 07:17 |
| wols_ | dtsund: old versions like jaunty are unsupported and therefore accumulate more and more security holes and exploits | 07:17 |
| rkirian | ok, I guess I need to understand what a paste bin is. basically, it's the same error I just quoted, multiple times over | 07:17 |
| wols_ | dtsund: so you really should upgrade it to 10.04 | 07:17 |
| wols_ | !pastebin | 07:17 |

| wols_ | rkirian: you paste the output and then press the "paste" button | 07:20 |
| wols_ | rkirian: then you have a different url in your adress bar | 07:21 |
| wols_ | j0el0g: no you don't need to be root. ALL files in your ~ are owned by you, no root necessary | 07:21 |
| rkirian | wols_: yep, trying to figure this out | 07:21 |
| jhala | IcemanV9 | 07:21 |
| jhala | IcemanV9: Its not opening here from morning. what to do . very crucial | 07:21 |
| Samo502 | Andyman: wouldn't that come down to the maintainer? most of the more popular packages would probably have compile instructions or something | 07:22 |
| j0el0g | wols_, so this idea of being able to mess around with the root IS NOT intended in ubuntu | 07:22 |
| wols_ | Andyman: you check debian/rules in the source package | 07:22 |
| Andyman | wols_: Thanks, that's what I was looking for | 07:22 |
| j0el0g | i was previously using linux mint and i su-ed all the time | 07:22 |

| wols_ | rkirian: and what raid card is this? | 07:25 |
| rkirian | wols_: linux kernel | 07:25 |
| ihashacks | Andyman: for GSTM for example, config.log has "$ ./configure --host=x86_64-linux-gnu --build=x86_64-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr --mandir=${prefix}/share/man --infodir=${prefix}/ share/info" | 07:25 |
| rkirian | wols_: high point "rocket raid" | 07:26 |
| CFC | thanks for all help =3 | 07:27 |
| rkirian | wols_: crappy raid card, driver won't work with any other kernel | 07:27 |
| Andyman | ihashacks: I already found it in debian/rules. I can't find the files you mentioned in the apt-source I just downloaded for nginx | 07:27 |

| wols_ | rkirian: so it's not a kernel you got from ubuntu but compiled yourself? | 07:27 |

| tomreyn | mlmg317-himts: you might be able to get IE running on to of wine, but it will involve getting a lot of depepdencies installed first, then tweak thnings around for hours etc. i'm also not aware of any tutorial. i think your best option is using virtualization such as virtualbox. | 07:38 |
| rkirian | wols_: does this mean to point /etc/apt/sources.list to some older repositories? | 07:38 |
| alvinPH | wols_: dloding via web browser only sucks, i want a quite faster process. like internet download manager in MS. | 07:38 |
| wols_ | rkirian: different repositories. same version (jaunty) of ubuntu | 07:39 |
| wols_ | alvinPH: I just gave you a list of ftp mirrors with dozens of ftp servers | 07:39 |
| wols_ | alvinPH: and http is as fast as ftp btw. all download managers can do ftp and http both | 07:39 |
| rkirian | wols_: ok, I'll try to figure things out from here. thanks. | 07:39 |
| gskellig | I think the nvidia drivers are breaking glx/unity on my intel card | 07:39 |
| gskellig | when i did apt-get purge nvidia-current it wouldn't boot. I just had a mouse and was at the ubuntu loading screen for like 20 mins | 07:40 |
| curiousx | alvinPH: you can use JDownloader as well | 07:40 |
| curiousx | i am using plowshare =) is a CLI downloader | 07:40 |
| rpisharody | Any good serial programs that you all know ? Other than Cutecom and minicom ? I need it to be included in a script ! | 07:40 |

| wols_ | gskellig: now why would you have nvidia drivers installed when you only have intel hardware? | 07:41 |
| gskellig | i have an nvidia card as well | 07:41 |
| gskellig | two graphics cards in my laptop | 07:41 |
| wols_ | gskellig: optimus doesn't work very well/at all under linux | 07:41 |
| gskellig | I don't want optimus | 07:42 |
| tomreyn | brown_fern: both are just frontends to iptables and iptables is still in oneiric + natty so your chances are firestarter still works. | 07:42 |
| gskellig | just want to disable nvidia and use intel | 07:42 |
| alvinPH | curiousx: how can i install jdownloader? | 07:42 |
| wols_ | alvinPH: you get a java jre and then go to jdownload.org and install it | 07:43 |
| wols_ | *jdownloader.org I think rather | 07:43 |
| wols_ | Iron: is there any special reason you are sending private messages to people out of the blue? | 07:43 |
| curiousx | alvinPH: waith a minit i ill tell you how | 07:43 |
| alvinPH | wols_: alright, thank u very much to both of you! :D | 07:44 |
| brown_fern | tomreyn: thank you, I enjoy how easy firestarter is to setup as a frontend to iptables, but wasn't sure if its code was current enough that it didn't cause a problem itself. | 07:45 |
| tomreyn | alvinPH: being a java applcation, jdownloader eats quite a bit of RAM, though. I'd suggest you use pyLoad instead to download from sile upload service websites which require entering captchas. but i'm nit even sure this was what you asked about. | 07:45 |
| brown_fern | tomreyn: thanks again for the information. | 07:45 |
| === eliezer is now known as eliezer_ | ||
| tomreyn | brown_fern: i have not used either so far, so i really can't know for sure. and iptables is a moving target (though backwards compatble for the most) | 07:46 |
| gskellig | on Wubi, i had nvidia card disabled and unity working perfectly on my intel GMA x4500 | 07:46 |
| tomreyn | brown_fern: but still the fact that both are included in natty makes me think both will work | 07:47 |
| alvinPH | tomreyn: it's alright about RAM usage coz i'm running Xubuntu.. and as we all know linux uses quite small ram right/ | 07:47 |
| gskellig | on "normal" ubuntu, I think the nvidia drivers are breaking glx/unity on the intel card | 07:47 |
| brown_fern | tomreyn: that is good to know, maybe I should be looking for iptables information and not just information on firestarter. | 07:47 |
| gskellig | but removing the nvidia drivers makes ubuntu not boot | 07:47 |
| tomreyn | brown_fern: you could check bug reports to make sure | 07:47 |
| curiousx | alvinPH: here are the commands ---> sudo apt-add-repository ppa:jd-team/jdownloader ; sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install jdownloader | 07:47 |

| Jonie | i want to ask about Ubuntu server | 07:56 |
| gskellig | how do i switch? | 07:56 |
| wols_ | gskellig: first you stop your 1:0 server/session | 07:57 |
| gskellig | how do i do that? | 07:57 |
| wols_ | and ctrl+alt+Fx to switch between terminals/sessions | 07:57 |
| wols_ | you close the current X session | 07:58 |
| alvinPH | tomreyn: what's that pyload all about? | 07:58 |
| wols_ | alvinPH: a downloader like jdownloader but using less ressources | 07:58 |
| JayWalker_ | hey, im trying to set up software raid on a comp. just need to know what filesystem /boot needs to be, or does it not matter? | 07:58 |
| gskellig | okay | 07:58 |
| alvinPH | ahh, i see wait, i will test for jdownloader.. thanks to curiousx | 07:58 |
| wols_ | JayWalker_: just don't put /boot on the raid. usually ext2 or ext3 is used | 07:59 |
| gskellig | only appears to be one running | 07:59 |
| wols_ | gskellig: sudo ps aux |grep X | 07:59 |
| JayWalker_ | i read in the ubuntu guide that /boot can be raid as long as it's raid 1 (so it's just redundant, rather than striped) | 07:59 |
| tomreyn | pfifo: fbreader or calibre | 07:59 |
| wols_ | JayWalker_: sure. the bootloader ignores raid1 altogether.so making it raid1 is pointless | 07:59 |
| Iron | Is here any person from Italy? | 08:00 |
| dhubble | test | 08:00 |
| JayWalker_ | well i've already got it setup that way. so leaving it raid 1 will make no difference? and all should be well? | 08:00 |
| gskellig | okay I see two but i can only get to one | 08:01 |

| digital1 | hi | 08:05 |
| Gskelling | why is ubuntu having so many issues with this? it worked perfectly with both wubi, and randomly a different time I installed 11.04 | 08:06 |

| digital1 | I have installed ubuntu 10.10 with windows 7 but after reboot i don't see grub but start only w7 | 08:08 |
| JayWalker_ | thanks tomreyn | 08:08 |
| magn3ts | digital1, did you tell ubuntu not to install grub/mbr | 08:09 |
| Gskelling | is there anyone here that will help me get glx/unity working? | 08:09 |
| wols_ | tomreyn: how can the bootloader deal with raid volumes? and why is it hard to add an fstab entry with /dev/sda1 for boot, why does it have to be a raid entry? | 08:09 |
| digital1 | i have installed boot loader in partition / | 08:10 |
| wols_ | digital1: that's the problem. you either need to install it to your MBR /dev/sda or such, or you need to add an entry to your windows 7 bootloader (easybcd for example) that loads your /dev/sdaX grub bootloader | 08:11 |
| digital1 | to format or adjust? | 08:11 |
| wols_ | what do you mean? | 08:12 |
| digital1 | adjust, if it's possible | 08:12 |
| === LouisJB_ is now known as LouisJB | ||

| tomreyn | wols_: there's a 'raid' module for grub2. that's how grub2 can deal with md raid. It's probably not too tough to add an fstab entry for /dev/sda1 (tough it depends much on the person doing it). But if he currently has a md RAID1 configuration he would have to go through some more steps to remove the mirror RAID device layer above /boot which he currently has in place to convert it to just a partition and file system on top of that. | 08:14 |
| tomreyn | repeating my last sentence since it likely got cut off: But if he currently has a md RAID1 configuration he would have to go through some more steps to remove the mirror RAID device layer above /boot which he currently has in place to convert it to just a partition and file system on top of that. | 08:14 |

| digital1 | I don't know if i have grub or grub 2 | 08:15 |
| semitones | digital1: 10.10 comes with grub 2 | 08:15 |
| digital1 | ok | 08:16 |
| semitones | digital1: you have to install grub to the mbr in order to see it at boot | 08:16 |
| wols_ | semitones: not realy. several other methods are possible. like setting the bootflag on the partition grub is installed on | 08:16 |
| zafr | if i want to boot from cd, can i just burn the image? | 08:17 |
| wols_ | zafr: yes | 08:17 |

| ric000 | [deXter], no, funny thing - I have the same service provider both at home and my summer house (both ADSL).... all laptops work @ summer house with different OS's, my laptop works with another OS.... and just recently, I can connect and get an internal IP address, but nothing else. | 08:50 |
| ric000 | [deXter], this happens both using wireless and wired, directly to modem, or using router. Same issues | 08:50 |
| semitones | digital1: are you on the live cd now? | 08:50 |
| digital1 | yes | 08:50 |
| livingdaylight | Greetings Comrades! | 08:52 |
| semitones | and does "df -h" show that /dev/sda7 is mounted as "/" ? | 08:52 |
| [deXter] | ric000, Have you tried booting from a clean live cd/usb? | 08:52 |
| wols_ | ric000: you need to check logs and error message in your summer house to see why it doesn't work. otherwise, this is all simply guesswork and our crystalball was stolen by trolls recently | 08:53 |
| ric000 | [deXter], Will try that | 08:53 |
| ric000 | wols_, I understand, but it does not make any sence | 08:53 |
| IcyPolecat | quick q - is it possible to upgrade Ubuntu (Server) to a specific version using do-release-upgrade? Need to jump from 9.04 to 9.10 but can't find a way to do it? | 08:54 |
| wols_ | semitones: I doubt it does. after all, he's on the live cd | 08:54 |
| semitones | wols_: he said it did earlier, i just wanted to confirm | 08:55 |
| semitones | oh yeha | 08:55 |
| wols_ | IcyPolecat: you simply edit your sources.list to 9.10 and upgrade | 08:55 |
| semitones | never mind | 08:55 |
| * semitones sleeps now | 08:55 | |
| wols_ | semitones: better tell him about chroot and such. good luck | 08:55 |
| wols_ | semitones: good night | 08:55 |
| semitones | night wols :) | 08:55 |
| IcyPolecat | wols_: so just edit /etc/apt/sources.list and apt-get dist-upgrade? | 08:56 |
| wols_ | IcyPolecat: however, 9.10 is already EOL too. archive.ubuntu.com still has repos howeverIIRC | 08:56 |
| semitones | (the grub 2 guide has methods easier than chroot too) | 08:56 |
| wols_ | IcyPolecat: the usual mirrors don't have 9.04 nor 9.10 anymore | 08:56 |

| IcyPolecat | wols_: yeah yeah ... would you believe this server was never meant to go into production ;) | 08:58 |
| wols_ | zertyu: you sure it's not already integrated into normal php5 packages? | 08:59 |
| zertyu | dont know how to check ? | 08:59 |

| garyboy | hey guys how do you private chat someone? | 09:02 |
| wols_ | garyboy: /msg <nick> <text> | 09:03 |

| VICODAN | copy the hard drive | 09:45 |
| pfifo | axle3d, rsync | 09:46 |
| === earth is now known as Guest23052 | ||
| d3vlin | axle3d: make sure the target harddisk is at least the size of the source, then do a dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb from a liveCD where sda is source and sdb is target | 09:46 |
| VICODAN | rsync copies system settings too? | 09:47 |
| axle3d | well ubuntu is more of a partition | 09:47 |
| dzup | axle3d: clonezilla | 09:47 |
| VICODAN | .... | 09:48 |
| d3vlin | or if you want different partition sizes on your new drive, do the dd for each partition (i.e. dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/dev/sdb1) | 09:48 |
| VICODAN | just use paragon partition manager | 09:48 |
| VICODAN | and copy the hard disk | 09:48 |
| VICODAN | easy as pie | 09:48 |
| axle3d | new hard disk already has another OS on it and space for the clone i want to make. I was thinking of mounting the partition and doing a copy file by file to the new hard disk? | 09:50 |
| * prabhu hi | 09:50 | |
| pfifo | axle3d, rsync will work much faster than dd and is resumable | 09:50 |
| * prabhu hi | 09:50 | |

| dzup | VICODAN: he said "over network" paragon does over network? | 09:50 |
| Beast | hi! | 09:50 |
| joel135 | axle3d: you could boot from a livecd and use "cp" with the -ax flags | 09:50 |

| ripthejacker | if you open any windows it too becomes invisible | 10:24 |
| milestone | linux_hacks, got it thx | 10:24 |
| smw | AmberJ, what exactly does this do? | 10:24 |
| ripthejacker | sometimes in beetween a window is visible | 10:25 |
| smw | AmberJ, is there a reason you did not choose eucalyptus? | 10:25 |
| ripthejacker | and if i drag that window all over the desktop then other windows become clear | 10:25 |
| huseyin | milestone: In shell write "ps -u username | grep application_name" where you replace username with your username and application_name is the name which you want to kill | 10:25 |
| qin | ripthejacker: Windows option in menu>system>pref | 10:25 |
| ripthejacker | qin: cant even reach to menu | 10:25 |
| huseyin | milestone: then it will show you the process id of the appication then type "kill -9 process_id_number" | 10:25 |

| ripthejacker | and it happens in ubuntu classic | 10:26 |
| milestone | huseyin, but thanks | 10:26 |
| ripthejacker | because new ubuntu does not work | 10:27 |
| huseyin | milestone: than it's the system monitor under menu system | 10:27 |
| AmberJ | smw: I tried eucalyptus but couldnot get it to install correctly...then I thought of trying my hands with opennebula "express" installer which is supposed to be quick to setup and install...I'm not going to use any of this setup ins production environments....So, thought of getting my hands dirty with opennebula first and then get back to eucalyptus | 10:27 |

| garyboy | for free wols | 10:38 |
| wols_ | ripthejacker: i915 | 10:38 |
| ripthejacker | garyboy: wrong channel to ask that | 10:38 |

| garyboy | im not trolling though | 10:39 |
| qin | ripthejacker: can you disable effects in Apperance? | 10:39 |
| shamess | garyboy: I think you can buy Windows 7, and still get a free downgrade license with it. But seriously, why'd you come in here and ask for a Windows license? | 10:39 |
| ripthejacker | qin: i will have to restart pc for that im in mandriva right now | 10:40 |
| AmberJ | smw: I recently read that UEC 11.10 will ship with openstack rather than eucalyptus...How easy (or difficult) is it to setup openstack on ubuntu (in case you tried it)? | 10:40 |

| ripthejacker | qin: but can you tell me how o know wic driver is being used | 10:40 |
| qin | ripthejacker: lsmod will show modules | 10:41 |
| wols_ | garyboy: to install another OS instead of ubuntu, you put in that OS' CD and overwrite the Ubuntu partition(s). that's all you need. asking about OSX or XP in here is offtopic | 10:41 |
| smw | AmberJ, never tried it... but where did you read that? | 10:41 |
| jagdeep_ | what can be the problem? | 10:41 |
| garyboy | i know i need that,but i dont have the product key thats the problem | 10:41 |
| garyboy | and people wont tell me how to hackintosh my pc, | 10:42 |
| jagdeep_ | i had reinstalled it too. | 10:42 |
| wols_ | garyboy: asking in here for such keys will get you banned. go any buy windows if you want to run it | 10:42 |
| smw | garyboy, so why are you asking about windows product keys here? | 10:42 |
| garyboy | because windows sent me here | 10:42 |
| smw | jagdeep_, one sec | 10:42 |
| garyboy | since im partitioning on ubuntu | 10:42 |

| wols_ | garyboy: cause running OSX on non-Apple hardware is a license violation as well. will get you banned frm the network too | 10:42 |
| smw | garyboy, you still should not ask product key questions here. | 10:42 |
| garyboy | really? | 10:43 |

| DarkStar1 | garyboy: because hackintosh and windows product key are strictly ILLEGAL to provide by any tom, dick or harry you have to troll the web for that info yourself | 10:43 |

| smw | jagdeep_, try deleting your config. It is probably in .config/chrome or something like that | 10:43 |
| wols_ | garyboy: not illegal. a OSX license violation. apple might and can sue you for it. however, that is Offtopic here too. ask a channel dealing with OSX about it. NOT here | 10:43 |

| cbrowne | wols_: dunno, but it was working up until this morning | 11:06 |
| wols_ | cbrowne: lspci -nn | 11:06 |
| smw | abd, I don't know what you want :-P | 11:06 |
| abd | smw i have gnome 3 on my laptop but without any effect like compiz | 11:07 |
| roaming | no way i can bring the panel to the bottom of screen-natty? | 11:07 |
| AdvoWork | wols_, wheres that? when you print, and then page options? if so, it works, but you have to do it every single time you print a page// | 11:07 |
| Gryllida | roaming: Where is it now? | 11:07 |
| cbrowne | wols_: it doesn't show any network card | 11:07 |
| wols_ | AdvoWork: no, in the "file" menu | 11:07 |
| smw | !ccm | 11:07 |
| roaming | its on the left of screen | 11:07 |
| cbrowne | wols_: I tried lspci to get you your answer when you asked what card it was | 11:07 |
| wols_ | cbrowne: dead network card. buy a new one | 11:07 |
| Gryllida | !unity | roaming, it's Unity, I don't know how to diable it, but try reading here: | 11:08 |
| ubottu | roaming, it's Unity, I don't know how to diable it, but try reading here:: Unity is the default UI for Ubuntu 11.04. Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. You can still boot to GNOME; see !classic. | 11:08 |
| smw | What is the compiz config manager called? | 11:08 |
| cbrowne | hoorah. my uncle's gonna be so pleased | 11:08 |
| wols_ | cbrowne: you can try with another OS, e.g. via live cd too if you want | 11:08 |
| lqgr00ve | cbrowne: that nic is fine - operator error | 11:08 |
| Gryllida | !classic | roaming, probably this | 11:08 |
| ubottu | roaming, probably this: The default interface in Ubuntu 11.04 is !Unity. You can switch back to regular !Gnome by logging out and clicking on your user name, in the Session box at the bottom of the screen select Ubuntu Classic. | 11:08 |
| wols_ | cbrowne: 10 bucks max if it's broken. no big deal | 11:08 |
| smw | abd, just use the compiz config manager. I don't use compiz | 11:08 |
| cbrowne | lqgr00ve: can you back that up? | 11:08 |
| cbrowne | wols_: yeah but it's the hassle not the expense | 11:08 |
| lqgr00ve | cbrowne: i'll see what i can do | 11:09 |

| rlc | greetings, i have just installed ubuntu on a flashdrive and set the persistent space to 512MB. i wanted to install/remove applications, but the system pops an error: cannot write to disk. | 11:13 |
| rlc | could i resize the persistent space? | 11:13 |
| rlc | or should i start a clean install with bigger space? | 11:13 |
| rlc | or could i just add another file and mount it? | 11:13 |
| AdvoWork | wols_, doh, mozilla firefox doesnt have page setup, BUT ive installed an ADDon which gives you page setup, that worked, thanks!! | 11:14 |
| tomek_ | im undecided , some software may be insecure - downloads | 11:14 |

| Ash-Fox | Hello, I'm dealing with some rather exotic hardware and was hoping someone could tell me the modprobe command (since apparently scsi_ide isn't the correct module anymore?) to load the device with the address '00:0f.1' as an IDE interface for Ubuntu Natty? | 11:18 |
| TerminalM | anyone know how i can fix this? | 11:18 |
| wols_ | Ash-Fox: what pci id? | 11:18 |
| wols_ | TerminalM: depends on wlan chipset iirc | 11:19 |
| ikonia | Ash-Fox: ide is dead, it should be translated to a scsi device address using libata | 11:19 |
| Ash-Fox | wols_, 00:0f.1 0101: 1166:0210 (rev 4a) according to lspci | 11:19 |
| TerminalM | wols_, 02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4321 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 03) | 11:20 |

| === Xaevo is now known as Anthraxium-64 | ||
| rlc | i.e. fontmatrix + inkscape | 11:24 |
| ikonia | rlc: then you need to increase the size of the / partition | 11:24 |
| wols_ | TerminalM: iwconfig, the options power and txpower. see manpage | 11:24 |
| ikonia | rlc: you've only put it as 500meg, the minimum recommended was 2GB | 11:24 |
| TerminalM | sudo iwconfig eth1 power off | 11:24 |

| rlc | ikonia: how do i change the aufs? | 11:24 |
| === tum is now known as Guest85151 | ||
| ikonia | aufs ? | 11:25 |
| rlc | ikonia: oh, the root | 11:25 |
| ikonia | rlc: how have you installed ubuntu to aufs ? | 11:25 |
| rlc | idk. i used the pendrivelinux's installer and install ubuntu 11 to my flash. | 11:26 |
| ikonia | how big is your flash drive ? | 11:26 |
| rlc | 4gb | 11:26 |
| ikonia | rlc: ok, so you need to repartition your flash drive with a bigger partition thatn 500meg | 11:26 |
| rlc | so, the persistent space is the root? | 11:27 |
| ikonia | yes, that is persistant | 11:27 |
| rlc | i thought the persistent space is another space outside the os to keep the files and configs. | 11:28 |
| rlc | xP | 11:28 |
| ikonia | rlc: the files are installed to root, so you'll have to make that persistent | 11:28 |
| squig | sorry sort of new to debian/ubuntu I want to backport the nvidia driver from 11.04 to 10.04 I was wondering how I use apt-get to download the source from a different version? | 11:28 |
| ikonia | squig: you can't do that, as nvidia is closed source, so you can't get the source code | 11:29 |
| wols_ | squig: put in a deb-src line for the old version and use apt-get source -t <old version> <package> | 11:29 |
| Kartagis | why can't I redirect crontab -l to a file? | 11:29 |
| wols_ | ikonia: but you can get the source for the package, no? even when it is mainly a big blob? | 11:29 |
| ikonia | totally, yes | 11:29 |
| rlc | ikonia: oh, it reminds me, my flash hasn | 11:29 |
| rlc | 't been partitioned. | 11:30 |
| squig | wols_, im on 10.04 and im trying to get the files out of 11.04? | 11:30 |
| ikonia | but if you're doing that, you may as well just install the driver from nvidia.com | 11:30 |
| wols_ | squig: as I told you | 11:30 |
| wols_ | ikonia: well, ubuntu gives you a nice shiny .deb at the end, nvidia doesn't, right? | 11:30 |
| rlc | ikonia: so, currently could i access/use the empty space? (as my flash hasn) | 11:30 |
| rlc | *hasn't been partitioned? | 11:30 |
| abd | WHAT IS THE BEST GRAPHIC PROGRAMMER APLICATION USING IN UBUNTU | 11:31 |
| ikonia | wols_: yes, a supported deb | 11:31 |
| squig | i have 20 machines to install it on, I would like to use the standard package managers, and dkms will update when kernels update | 11:31 |
| ikonia | abd: please don't use caps lock | 11:31 |
| ikonia | squig: sounds a reasonable idea | 11:31 |
| Hil0 | I updated to 10.10 yesterday (I though I had already done so a long time ago but apparently not) and now my dead keys aren't working without combining them with a letter. I have swedish keyboard layout and I'm not interested in the eliminating dead keys since I want to still be able to do letters with accents. I also know I've had this problem before, but I can't remember when, or how I solved it. | 11:32 |
| abd | we have to speak about graphic programmation on ubuntu | 11:32 |
| ikonia | abd: then ask a question, without caps | 11:33 |
| abd | ikonia sorry | 11:34 |
| abd | ikonia so what a bout programing under ubuntu | 11:35 |
| ikonia | abd: ask a question | 11:35 |
| beef-supreme | anyone here installed thunar in ubuntu? | 11:35 |
| Ash-Fox | abd, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Programming | 11:35 |
| squig | what sort of programming do you want to do? | 11:35 |
| wols_ | beef-supreme: ask your real question | 11:35 |
| beef-supreme | wols_, thunar fails to mount media | 11:36 |
| * wols_ fails to spot a question mark anywhere here | 11:36 | |
| beef-supreme | wols_, but if you don't use thunar it's probably unlikely that you know how to fix | 11:36 |
| beef-supreme | wols_, why does thunar fail to mount media | 11:36 |
| rlc | ikonia: if i set the whole disk for persistent space, could i access the files in it from windows? or should i partition the flash into two partitions: OS and data? what's the rule of thumb to determine the size? | 11:36 |
| ikonia | rlc: you are using a file system that is unsupported in windows | 11:37 |
| beef-supreme | wols_, the error is reproducible, install ubuntu mini in a virtual machine, install xorg, openbox and thunar | 11:37 |
| wols_ | beef-supreme: good luck you will need it with the way you ask for help. have a nice day | 11:37 |
| ikonia | beef-supreme: ubuntu mini ? | 11:37 |
| beef-supreme | ikonia, yes | 11:37 |
| ikonia | beef-supreme: where did you get ubuntu mini ? | 11:37 |
| beef-supreme | ikonia, the ubuntu website? | 11:37 |
| beef-supreme | ikonia, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 11:38 |
| d3vlin | I noticed the ubuntu natty installer cd had a very nice fullscreen (i.e. 1920x1080?) boot logo (plymouth), can't get that working on my regular install though, any hints? | 11:38 |
| === szal_ is now known as szal | ||
| ikonia | beef-supreme: the mininal install cd, not something called ubuntu mini | 11:38 |
| Ash-Fox | I would very much appreciate it if someone could point me in the direction of which current kernel module in Ubuntu Natty is which loads/discovers IDE devices. | 11:38 |
| rlc | could i partition a flash drive, from which i boot ubuntu, using the booted ubuntu? | 11:38 |
| sudokill | d3vlin did u install nvidia / ati drivers? | 11:38 |
| d3vlin | sudokill: yes, nvidia-current | 11:39 |
| sudokill | thats why | 11:39 |
| sudokill | i think only with the generic drivers it has full res | 11:39 |
| wols_ | Ash-Fox: considering the PCI ID you gave isn't recognized by lspci basically means there is no driver for it under linux. the evidence points to a really old IDE RAID driver from broadcom | 11:39 |
| d3vlin | a that is a shame | 11:39 |
| beef-supreme | ikonia, my bad, install the minimal version of ubuntu, xorg, openbox and thunar, dbus and hal, open thunar, the list of unmounted media is on the panel, click any of them and you get a "thunar was unable to mont" error | 11:39 |
| d3vlin | it's not that important, but it looks way better | 11:39 |
| sudokill | i know | 11:39 |
| squig | d3vlin, avoid rebooting :) | 11:40 |
| Ash-Fox | wols_, I'd still like to attempt to force loading it on the off chance I can get it working. | 11:40 |
| d3vlin | well I don't keep my HTPC running 24/7 ;) | 11:40 |
| ikonia | beef-supreme: no idea with out running a test myself, it's likley you are missing a dependency package for that to work | 11:40 |
| beef-supreme | ikonia, yes, most likely | 11:41 |
| Ash-Fox | Sorry about my English, I haven't slept for at all and it's making me a bit screwy. | 11:41 |
| nephro | skype on ubuntu 64bit is still a pain, right? | 11:41 |
| ikonia | nephro: no | 11:42 |
| jpds | nephro: No. | 11:42 |
| nephro | oh, really? | 11:42 |
| rlc | ikonia: thanks for the help. i'll create a new usb installation. | 11:42 |
| nephro | apt-get install skype -- then? | 11:42 |
| wols_ | beef-supreme: thunar-volman btw | 11:42 |
| gotsanity__ | Whenever I transfer files to a usb flashdrive it will start out fast and then quickly drop in speed (without changing the remaining time). Eventually it will just read 0 seconds left and sit there for a really long time. Any idea how to fix this? | 11:43 |
| beef-supreme | wols_, it's there, that's the reason why the unmounted media are displayed | 11:43 |
| zvacet | beef-supreme: not sure but maybe thunar-volman plugin may help | 11:43 |
| beef-supreme | zvacet, thunar-volman is a dependency of thunar, you can't install thunar without thunar-volman | 11:44 |
| nephro | ikonia, so, can you suggest a link or smth? Googling give me only outdated(2008) links to ubuntu community site | 11:44 |
| wols_ | beef-supreme: any error messages? .xsession-errors maybe? | 11:44 |
| sudokill | nephro i think skype is in ubuntu tweak | 11:45 |
| ikonia | !skype | 11:45 |
| ubottu | To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga | 11:45 |
| beef-supreme | wols_, no errors, i'm reinstalling it in my virtual machine, i previously tried it in debian to see if works there | 11:45 |
| wols_ | beef-supreme: I suggest starting thunar from a terminal and check there | 11:45 |
| rlc | can i install applications in a specific directory? | 11:46 |
| rlc | *a specific partition | 11:47 |
| ikonia | rlc: no | 11:47 |
| ikonia | the package manager will install them in a predefined place | 11:47 |
| rlc | so the apps would always go to root? | 11:47 |
| Guest85151 | funny : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNRit2wrxkU | 11:47 |
| ikonia | they don't go to root, they go to many directories under root | 11:47 |
| rlc | *to the ubuntu's partition | 11:47 |
| zvacet | rlc:yes | 11:48 |
| ikonia | rlc: they go to /usr/bin, /etc/ /var etc etc | 11:48 |
| rlc | so, if i use a live cd, i couldn't add application? (because the root is not writeable? | 11:48 |
| ikonia | rlc: you can , as root is your memory | 11:48 |
| ikonia | however when you reboot, it will go | 11:48 |
| ripthejacker | qin: hi im back | 11:48 |
| nephro | ikonia, that seems out of date too... There actually is a skype package on skype.com for 64 bit linux | 11:48 |
| nephro | lol | 11:48 |
| ripthejacker | qin: the one with display problems | 11:48 |
| ikonia | nephro: update it then | 11:48 |
| nephro | so dl + dpkg -i skype.deb works | 11:48 |
| ripthejacker | qin: i have a screen shot | 11:49 |
| ActionParsnip | nephro: I always use the skype site for insalling it | 11:49 |
| ripthejacker | qin: using my digicam | 11:49 |
| nephro | ActionParsnip, well, last time I tried to do that, there were only 32 bit packages | 11:49 |
| rlc | ikonia: but when i use flash + persistent, the root would eventually be placed in the flash instead of ram? | 11:49 |
| nephro | and the link ikonia gives is rather misleading | 11:49 |
| nephro | imho | 11:49 |
| ikonia | rlc: depends how you set it up, but yes | 11:49 |
| ikonia | nephro: then update it | 11:49 |
| rlc | ikonia: ok. thanks. | 11:49 |
| ActionParsnip | nephro: really, that far back :) | 11:50 |
| nephro | ikonia, is it open for anyone to edit? | 11:50 |

| beef-supreme | wols_, as you would expect | 12:06 |
| ozzmosis | wols_: I think kLownish just wants windows + linux running concurrently on the same machine | 12:07 |
| Deedub | i just downloaded Xchat. entered nick and real names, do i need to register somewhere? I'll use these names in the future on other distros. | 12:07 |
| wols_ | beef-supreme: run X via "startx" and check that tty for any permission errors? | 12:07 |
| kLownish | ozzmosis, I dont really need them "running" on the same machine. I just need to access the linux box from windows, see the desktop and such, thats why I figured vm would be a good idea. | 12:07 |
| beef-supreme | wols_, i am running it using startx | 12:07 |
| ech0s7 | where can i find the configuration file where are collected all module and daemon to start at boot? | 12:08 |
| wols_ | ozzmosis: he said a remote linux installation | 12:08 |
| mattyh88 | oCean: thx | 12:08 |
| wols_ | kLownish: you can access your linux laptop via VNC | 12:08 |
| wols_ | !upstart | ech0s7 | 12:08 |
| ubottu | ech0s7: 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/ | 12:08 |
| kLownish | wols_, I'll check that out, thanks. | 12:08 |
| wols_ | kLownish: remote X also works for LANs | 12:09 |
| ozzmosis | kLownish: VNC .. or you could run an X server on the Windows machine (eg. cygwin's) and use ssh X forwarding | 12:09 |
| beef-supreme | wols_, no erros in tty | 12:09 |
| ech0s7 | ok wols_ but on ubuntu where is config file ? | 12:09 |

| Ghost_Who_Walks | can i have gnome 3 without the shell | 12:10 |
| ech0s7 | yes Ghost_Who_Walks | 12:10 |
| ech0s7 | fallback mode | 12:10 |
| oCean | !gnome3 | Ghost_Who_Walks | 12:10 |
| ubottu | Ghost_Who_Walks: 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 and UNSTABLE, will break Unity and possibly other parts of your system, and cannot be downgraded safely. | 12:10 |
| kLownish | free version of vnc doesnt support win7, lovely. guess I will try running an X server on windows then. | 12:11 |
| Ghost_Who_Walks | hmm well thanks guys | 12:11 |
| beef-supreme | wols_, i even added my user to the root group | 12:11 |
| beef-supreme | wols_, still nothing | 12:11 |
| ActionParsnip | kLownish: apps often have web UIs too, you can look into that as well (much sleeker than VNC) | 12:11 |
| ozzmosis | kLownish: heh, really? | 12:11 |
| wols_ | kLownish: you're wrong. ultravnc is GPL and supports windows 7 just fine | 12:11 |
| kLownish | wols_, thanks, I was looking at realvnc :) | 12:11 |
| ActionParsnip | beef-supreme: add the user to the admin group, it will then be able to use sudo | 12:12 |
| ozzmosis | kLownish: so does tightvnc, apparently | 12:12 |
| beef-supreme | ActionParsnip, i am in the admin group and i can use sudo | 12:12 |
| beef-supreme | but the point of making thunar handle my mounts/umounts is exactly to get rid of permission to do so | 12:12 |
| ActionParsnip | beef-supreme: so why add the user to the root group? | 12:12 |
| beef-supreme | ActionParsnip, because thunar always complains i am lacking permissions | 12:12 |
| wols_ | ActionParsnip: for debugging purposes | 12:12 |
| wols_ | beef-supreme: I see an extended strace session in your future | 12:13 |
| SAngeli | Hi, I just installed ubuntu 11.04 and wish to install nomachine NX but do not know how to. I am confused because some old docs report that I have to install extra applications to make NX work. Is there a doc or page on Internet that would guide me through on how to install NX on a desktop for current 11.04 version? | 12:13 |
| beef-supreme | wols_, anyway nautilus behaves in the same way | 12:13 |
| beef-supreme | can't mount /umount | 12:13 |
| beef-supreme | can you tell me what groups are you into? | 12:13 |
| SAngeli | Also, I am confused if I have to install the Server or the Node version | 12:14 |
| wols_ | SAngeli: nomachine strongly discaourages people to use a free version of their software. with predictable results | 12:14 |
| ozzmosis | kLownish: it's possible they might just mean the server doesn't work in win7, not the client // getting off-topic | 12:14 |
| beef-supreme | i'm in root adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin sambashare admin | 12:14 |
| ActionParsnip | beef-supreme: then run: gksudo thunar | 12:14 |
| SAngeli | wols_, I have it running and it is not the free version but the regular version with up to 4 free users. I have it perfectly running on a CentOS server and am very pleased with it. | 12:15 |
| wols_ | ActionParsnip: we already established that it works as root | 12:15 |
| kLownish | ozzmosis, last comment ot: I'm going to try uvnc and see if it works, if it doesn't then I'll test realvnc. | 12:15 |
| SAngeli | I need to understand how to install in on ubuntu 11.04. wols_ can you please help? | 12:15 |
| beef-supreme | ActionParsnip, 1. thunar was made to mount /umount without permissions, 2. thunar doesn't allow you to mount if you run it with sudo, much like nautilus | 12:15 |
| kLownish | Thanks for the help ozzmosis, wols_, ActionParsnip | 12:15 |
| ozzmosis | kLownish: gl | 12:15 |

| rlc | hi, could you suggest me the best way to get portable ubuntu on 4gb flash? | 12:18 |
| rlc | cmiiw, afaik there are three ways or so: portable linux, live usb creator, pendrivelinux. | 12:18 |
| beef-supreme | ActionParsnip, yes i am | 12:18 |
| beef-supreme | ActionParsnip, i'm actually trying several distros at a time, | 12:18 |
| jpds | rlc: Install Ubuntu onto the USB as it's / partition. | 12:19 |
| beef-supreme | ActionParsnip, fedora seams to be the only one where thunar works, but other features are buggy in fedora | 12:19 |
| beef-supreme | ActionParsnip, ubuntu sees the unmounted parittions but is inable to mount / umount | 12:19 |
| rlc | jpds: using which method? | 12:19 |
| beef-supreme | ActionParsnip, debian doesn't even see them | 12:19 |
| jpds | rlc: Use a LiveCD, and run the usual install process. | 12:20 |
| rlc | it seems there are little differences to these installation: portable linux, live usb creator, pendrivelinux. | 12:20 |
| oCean | SAngeli: I downloaded -server -node and -client. Installed all 3 of the packages on the server, for the client the -client package was sufficient | 12:20 |
| ech0s7 | where is the configuration file where are collected all module and daemon to start at boot? | 12:20 |
| rlc | jpds: i couldn't get a live cd easily (no cd writer). | 12:21 |
| SAngeli | oCean, the three files did you download them from this website: http://www.nomachine.com/download-package.php?Prod_Id=2961? | 12:21 |
| SAngeli | http://www.nomachine.com/download-package.php?Prod_Id=2961 this is the link: oCean I added a ? at the end and do not know if it works | 12:21 |
| oCean | SAngeli: exactly. It was only 2 weeks ago, so I remember :) | 12:22 |

| SAngeli | oCean, it reports to run "sudo dpkg -i nxclient_3.5.0-6_i386.deb " I am not good with linux. Is this going to work on ubuntu if I just run this commands? | 12:22 |
| === szal_ is now known as szal | ||
| oCean | SAngeli: yes, that's exactly how I installed the packages | 12:23 |
| SAngeli | thank you oCean . Are you happy with this software? | 12:23 |
| SAngeli | does it run fine? | 12:23 |

| oCean | SAngeli: I did no such thing, actually for now I did nothing more than the basics (start nxclient and run single program) For full-blown implementation of the product, the specific documentation might be useful. | 12:27 |
| HaikUbuntu | I know how to have the result of this alias "ll = 'ls-alF | less' bash in color ? | 12:27 |
| HaikUbuntu | Is this possible because it prevents the less | 12:28 |
| HaikUbuntu | without "| less" I like the color ... | 12:28 |
| SAngeli | oCean, thanks for your help. Very well appreciated. | 12:28 |

| ActionParsnip | researcher123: you can use partimage to make the image (use liveCD so the partition is not mounted) | 12:36 |

| mehdi | hey guys if a linux distro has only live(without) installation can u set it up on ur PC? | 12:37 |

| wols_ | Bartzy|work: sudo netstat -anp|grep 33987 | 12:37 |
| SAngeli | oCean, when tried to run # sudo dpkg -i nxclient_3.5.0-6_i386.deb I got some dependecies issue and therefore it did stop. Did you get this issue too? | 12:37 |
| ActionParsnip | mehdi: I'd imagine so, it will be harder. Grub2 can be told to boot ISO files too | 12:37 |
| SAngeli | oCean, I see on NX docs on how to install that there are several libraries required to install. | 12:38 |
| mehdi | @bazhang well i ask generally it is gnome 3 i want to install but it says it was live and im not sure if there is any installation dats y i ask | 12:39 |
| Bartzy|work | wols_: I get "-" in the PID column. | 12:39 |
| bazhang | mehdi, gnome3 is from a PPA, how did you propose to run it in live mode only, barring remastering a ubuntu cd | 12:39 |
| ActionParsnip | bazhang: there is a live gnome3 cd based on suse or fedora | 12:40 |
| bazhang | ActionParsnip, right. so he should ask in #suse or #fedora | 12:40 |
| ActionParsnip | bazhang: sounds reasonable to me | 12:40 |

I've got a USB barcode scanner that's connected to my system and I'd like to have it accessible via non-logged-in-at-the-machine access. If I login at the system, it behaves like a keyboard (when you scan a code, it gets pumped to stdin) | 12:44 |

| ActionParsnip | Fudge: do you mean for sudo? | 12:47 |
| onaip | yup | 12:47 |
| onaip | i think | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | onaip: sudo cp -r folder /usr/share/slim/themes | 12:47 |
| onaip | like I want to move a folder located in my downloads to | 12:47 |
| saliak | ActionParsnip: I was thinking it'd involve something like a pipe. i'm not sure exactly where to start? if it's a USB HID device, what's the device it'd show up as? I see a /dev/hidraw0 that spits out garbage (not the actual scanned code, but something that seems to be somehow correlated). is that what I need to pipe? | 12:48 |
| onaip | what does -r stand for ? ? | 12:48 |
| ActionParsnip | onaip: check the man page ;) | 12:48 |
| onaip | ok . . thanks . .. | 12:49 |
| onaip | would it copy all files in the directory as well ? ? | 12:50 |

| onaip | ActionParsnip: did i do anything wrong. . | 12:53 |

| [deXter] | OpenSUSE, Thanks but it was a bit too heavy and buggy to my liking. | 12:53 |

| onaip | ActionParsnip: it doesn't work | 12:53 |
| onaip | ActionParsnip: keep getting error: cp: cannot stat `/Downloads/fingerprint': No such file or directory | 12:54 |
| saliak | ActionParsnip: so if i do "cat /dev/stdin > reader.txt", that seems to work (in that everything i scan shows up in the text file bar.txt, that I can read from any login | 12:54 |
| P-RONALDO | what your speak???????????????? | 12:54 |
| OpenSUSE | deXter search "dock" in ubuntu software center. i remember there were 2 or 3 docks there. | 12:54 |

| ActionParsnip | onaip: just found: echo "hello" | sudo tee /dev/pts/4 | 12:55 |
| saliak | ActionParsnip: but that seems a little weird. is that the right way to do it? i'm running a headless system with an LCD display. when it turns on, it needs to start a program that'll take appropriate actions based on the barcode reader input | 12:55 |
| DirtyDawg | cairo and docky are 2 | 12:55 |
| ActionParsnip | onaip: you'll need to toy with which number is yours | 12:55 |
| Fudge | no ActionParsnip , for a tty console once a user switches to say tty4 they hear a beep or if the system is configured to consoel flash they see that. then again twice when the password prompt appears. to avoid a user typing their password where they shouldnt accidently who is blind. | 12:55 |
| [deXter] | OpenSUSE, Good idea; I'll try them out thanks. | 12:55 |

| ubottu | 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) | 13:23 |
| qin | a5h15h: So follow link, with framebuffer you will set it in grub, just need driver. | 13:23 |
| Condoulo | I have a question concerning the latest batch of updates. I noitced when I last updated there was a few updates to xorg packages. Then when I try booting up this morning, it crashes and automatically restarts the system once it gets to the point of loading GDM. Am I the only one to have gotten this issue in the past couple days? | 13:24 |
| qin | a5h15h: Why do you not have grub2??? | 13:24 |
| Condoulo | Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit | 13:24 |
| Dr_Willis | if he upgraded since befor 9.10 he might still have grub1... but thats scary. :) | 13:24 |
| osse | ozzmosis, actually I think I confirmed that it doesn't. Inside gnome-terminal I ran 'top', and checked the output of 'ps'. top was connected to pts/3, the same as a bash instance. When I ran 'gnome-terminal -c top', top was connected to pts/4 but there was no bash instance connected to the same. I wonder why I didn't think of that before :) | 13:25 |

| SAngeli | Hi, am trying to install NX on latest ubuntu desktop11.04 I have issues with dependecies (libaudiofile0 which seems that it whould be installed as part of Open.source SGI audio file library) I am following NX instrutions on how to install. How to solve dependencies issues? is there a way to just let ubuntu install it? This is what I am following: | 13:25 |
| SAngeli | please help-. | 13:25 |

| lotuspsychje | anyone knows a script or a package to automount ntfs at boot? | 13:27 |
| Dr_Willis | lotuspsychje: just put the proper entry in your /etc/fstab | 13:27 |
| Dr_Willis | !ntfs | 13:27 |
| ubottu | To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE | 13:27 |
| Condoulo | I would like some help regarding the fact I cannot seem to boot into Ubuntu 11.04 anymore as it crashes and reboots at the point it gets to loading GDM. | 13:27 |
| johannes81 | yeah i will in due time =) im asking first cuz i would rather have private chat or a skype voice chat session...cuz i have concentration problems and dyslexia...hard for me to chat in this open chat =) | 13:27 |
| Dr_Willis | lotuspsychje: install the ntfs-config app and it acn auto add it i think | 13:28 |
| mrsunshine | hmm just updated to the new release and well ... the graphics performance sucks badly ... what is wrong :/ | 13:28 |
| mrsunshine | worked fine before update | 13:28 |

| naxa | is there a way to autogenerate a new (updated) fstab? | 13:28 |
| lotuspsychje | tnx for the last Dr_willis | 13:28 |
| Dr_Willis | naxa: updated for what? ive never seen any apps other thebn ntfs-config to work on the fstab | 13:29 |
| naxa | Dr_Willis, nor did I, however I manually updated my partition table for sure :) | 13:29 |
| Dr_Willis | it pays to learn how to mange the fstab. just in case of emergancy | 13:29 |
| Condoulo | qin: I can get into failsafe. The biggest change I can observe is there were xorg updates yesterday. So, I guess including the fact I have a Radeon HD 5750 using fglrx would help. | 13:29 |
| naxa | Dr_Willis, and fstab was generated when i first installed ubuntu somehow, there must be a way to do it (i could do it manually but i don't want) | 13:29 |
| ozzmosis | osse: another way is to run pstree | 13:30 |
| qin | Condoulo: Yes, first step would be to remove driver. | 13:30 |
| Dr_Willis | naxa: never seen a 'regenerate fstab' tool. Never really needed one. If i add a new HD. i add a proper line. There might be some apps that can do it. but ive never noticed one mentioned in here. | 13:30 |
| lotuspsychje | Dr_willis: i have ntfs-config already installed, should it be configed somewhere? | 13:30 |
| naxa | Dr_Willis, ok thanks for the info then :) | 13:31 |
| Condoulo | qin: Remove and Purge? | 13:31 |
| Dr_Willis | lotuspsychje: did you run ntfs-config ? | 13:31 |
| naxa | Dr_Willis, how does the installer do it? | 13:31 |
| Dr_Willis | lotuspsychje: its all handled by the /etc/fstab | 13:31 |
| Dr_Willis | naxa: proberly some script makes it from your input information | 13:31 |
| lotuspsychje | Dr_willis: yes but after asking root pass doesnt show | 13:31 |
| mrsunshine | gah, where is the settings etc located in this new stupid ui :/ | 13:31 |
| Dr_Willis | lotuspsychje: fall back to editing it by hand i guess. ntfs-config has been flakey the last few releases. | 13:31 |
| qin | Condoulo: With jockey, just disable it. | 13:32 |
| Condoulo | mrsunshine: btw, if you are still around, the Sync to Vsync option in Compiz Fusion seems to be causing the graphics performance issue for a lot of people when going to 11.04. If you use proprietary ATI or nVidia drivers, you should be fine just using the Sync to Vsync option in there and not in Compiz. Installing CCsm should allow you to get to that setting. | 13:32 |

| osse | ozzmosis, nice. thanks for the tip | 13:33 |
| qin | Condoulo: jockey-text (might not work well in console) | 13:33 |
| Dr_Willis | stimpie: you could try the command 'unity --reset' that will reset all unity settings back to defaults | 13:35 |
| Dr_Willis | If you want to reset Unity (this will only reset the Unity settings in CompizConfig Settings Manager and leave the other CCSM settings intact), open a terminal (or press ALT + F2) and enter: | 13:35 |
| Dr_Willis | from ---> http://www.webupd8.org/2011/04/how-to-reset-unity-launcher-icons-or.html | 13:35 |
| Condoulo | mrsunshine: go to the Ubuntu Software Center and search for CCSM, and install that. Then launch CCSM, go to the OpenGL settings, and UnCheck the Sync to VBlank option. | 13:36 |

| mrsunshine | oki thanks =) | 13:36 |
| stimpie | Dr_Willis: thanks that solves it! | 13:36 |
| Condoulo | anyway, I'm gonna get off this liveCD and go back into the failsafe mode and see what I can do to fix my own situation. hehe. | 13:36 |

| Gargille | Hello everyone. Anyone proficient with the login stuff? I have a problem I have not been able to fix for three days now. | 15:14 |
| squig | Gargille, ask and some one may answer | 15:15 |
| shugart | Is it still a bug that in the vpn connections it shows the connection as checked and active, but it is by no means active, or even generating logs ? | 15:16 |
| Gargille | I cant login through to Gnome. it kicks me out to the login screen. I can login through a console though. and the machine was working fine for the last three years. | 15:16 |
| compdoc | cant login through to Gnome how? | 15:16 |
| tomek_ | how to switch between kde and gnome in ubuntu? | 15:16 |
| Gargille | Compdoc. I boot. and see the login screen. I enter my password and username. I see some letters on the screen and the nvidia logo real quick and then I am back at the login screen. | 15:17 |
| Ghost_Who_Walks | it's raining here guys :) | 15:18 |
| Gargille | actually I can not login to any gui. just the consoles through ctrlalt1 | 15:18 |
| compdoc | Gargille, that statement "I can login through a console though" got me confused. what do you mean by console then? | 15:18 |
| dr3af | any help please? | 15:18 |
| edbian | dr3af: Just state your question | 15:19 |
| qin | tomek_: switch? you mean at one session? need logout/login (and choose in bottom bar your session) or start second X | 15:19 |
| Gargille | compdoc. at the login screen I can not login. so I do CTRL-ALT-1 and go to a console. I can login there fine. | 15:19 |
| dr3af | I try to speak on skype but friend cant hear me. I tried on windows and its ok. The wierd thing is that i can hear a little something on the background, for example if i open a movie he can hear it,but the sound is very low. I checked the volume of my mic and seems to be ok.. | 15:19 |
| qin | !sound | dr3af | 15:19 |
| ubottu | dr3af: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 15:19 |
| dp | what's the graphical package manager ubuntu is looking to use to replace synaptic in the future? | 15:20 |
| Gargille | compdoc, this computer was working fine a couple of days ago. :/ | 15:20 |
| maco | dp: software center | 15:20 |
| dmtarmey | ? | 15:21 |
| maco | dp: synaptic will still be installable for those who want that level of power yet dont use the command line, but software center covers the needs of most users | 15:21 |
| grrizd72 | Anybody delt with installing Google Earth on 11.04? | 15:21 |
| dr3af | qin: the problem is that when i receive a message on facebook he hears the *beep*.... | 15:21 |
| Gargille | compdoc, I did a sudo apt-get update hoping it fixed the problem but it did not. | 15:22 |
| qin | dr3af: your mic is hook up wrongly, need to set it and test it. | 15:22 |
| tomek_ | who knows good graphics software for linux, I have gimp but its very simple ... | 15:22 |
| dp | maco: thanks | 15:22 |
| dr3af | qin: what u mean hook up wrongly?and how to "set it and test it"? | 15:22 |

| phixxor | http://lomat.tumblr.com/post/6075409090/http-how-to-speed-up-the-internet-on-ubuntu | 15:23 |
| Gargille | dr3af, did you check the mixer? | 15:23 |
| qin | dr3af: Means either there isa swich, or wrong card, or volume levels. | 15:23 |
| compdoc | Gargille, at my login screen, hitting CTRL-ALT-1 does nothing, but hitting alt-f1, alt-f2, etc gives me a tty session (command prompt) | 15:23 |
| compdoc | Gargille, which OS is it? | 15:24 |
| qin | compdoc: in tty1: xinit -- :1 vt8 | 15:24 |
| qin | compdoc: Do you get to term? | 15:24 |
| Gargille | ok it is a tty session then. on mine it is a ctrl-alt-F1 F2 F3 etc.. | 15:24 |
| compdoc | qin, this is Gargille's problem | 15:24 |
| Polah | What would be the best filesystem for both Ubuntu and Windows; NTFS or ext3? | 15:24 |
| qin | Gargille: in tty1: xinit -- :1 vt8 | 15:24 |
| Gargille | ubuntu before the last one. 10.10 I believe. | 15:25 |
| mattyh88 | hey, shouldn't a directory (in /home) be automatically created when I craete a new system user? | 15:25 |
| rww | Polah: NTFS. Windows + ext* is a pain. | 15:25 |
| Polah | rww: Thought so. | 15:25 |
| edbian | mattyh88: Did you use adduser or useradd ? | 15:25 |
| Koobilitoo | Virtualbox yer windows | 15:25 |
| Gargille | qin, did xinit -- :1 vt8 got a little white screen with the command prompt. | 15:26 |
| phixxor | this claims editing /etc/sysctl.conf makes your internet faster. Is that true/safe? How does it work? http://lomat.tumblr.com/post/6075409090/http-how-to-speed-up-the-internet-on-ubuntu | 15:27 |
| qin | Gargille: Good, 1. check in tty1 for errors (Alt-Ctrl-F1) | 15:27 |
| === dimos_ is now known as Guest2362 | ||
| mattyh88 | edbian: useradd | 15:28 |
| qin | Gargille: 2. in vt8 (Alt-Ctrl-F8): gedit (ansd check for errors in both) | 15:28 |
| Koobilitoo | useradd sounds like something yoda teaching ubuntu might say lol | 15:28 |
| p3rp | is there a way i could shorten my boot process? | 15:28 |
| Gargille | qin, (EE) microsoft nano transceiver v2.0: failed to initialize for relative axes | 15:28 |
| Koobilitoo | Good Q uestion p3rp i want to know too | 15:29 |
| qin | Gargille: Is it Wubi??? | 15:29 |
| edbian | mattyh88: If you look at the man page for useradd you'll see it is a low lever tool. It recommends you use adduser If you use useradd you need to create the home folder yourself manually | 15:29 |
| genii-around | p3rp: As a one-time option, you can append the word: profile to the line in grub which loads the kernel. It will try to streamline which sysvinit scripts can be loaded in parallel | 15:29 |
| mattyh88 | edbian: okay thx ;) | 15:29 |
| qin | p3rp: Remove all not needed sevices | 15:30 |
| Gargille | qin, no it is dualboot with an old winxp. but ubuntu was a clean install. I was trying to install a wifi usb dongle at the time. it had crashed then too. | 15:30 |
| Polah | p3rp, Koobilitoo: Run a more lightweight system, have less startup programs, invest in an SSD | 15:30 |
| joel135 | p3rp: if you're looking for hardware as well, try an ssd drive | 15:30 |
| Joelio | I've got a seriosu issue with getting compiz working on 11.04 with Nvidia 7300. I've got OpenGL / GLX etc.. all enabled. When I do a compiz --replace however, I lose all windows and ust get a background essentially | 15:30 |
| lotuspsychje | polah: ssd rocks indeed | 15:30 |
| dmtarmey | hello ? | 15:30 |
| qin | p3rp: Do not use X nonsense | 15:30 |
| Polah | lotuspsychje, tad expensive though. | 15:30 |
| p3rp | i did remove some services but its still persistent,i have to remove my battery just to restart coz it freezes | 15:31 |
| lotuspsychje | polah: depends on what brand/speed | 15:31 |
| Gargille | qin, gedit is running. I can see it on the screen. | 15:31 |
| p3rp | and the i get to a busy box | 15:31 |
| lotuspsychje | polah: i have an 8gig transcend slc ssd for 90 euro | 15:31 |
| Koobilitoo | TY i know going into startup applications is an option | 15:31 |
| qin | Gargille: kill gedit and: startx | 15:31 |
| edbian | mattyh88: sure | 15:31 |
| Koobilitoo | i dunno how to edit grub | 15:32 |
| p3rp | i wish i could get an ssd but this one is an old hp dv6500 | 15:32 |
| Gargille | qin, not authorised to run startx. should I run with sudo?? | 15:32 |
| dmtarmey | does this chat room support jolicloud | 15:32 |
| Polah | lotuspsychje, I guess is you get a really small one just for the operating system it's not too bad. | 15:32 |
| p3rp | sorry cant afford ssd.. | 15:32 |
| lotuspsychje | polah: yes indeed i combine regular sata for storage and ssd for the Os | 15:32 |
| qin | Gargille: No, try in in tty2 | 15:33 |
| Koobilitoo | SSD is faster then the 15K rpm drives? probably just curious tho | 15:33 |
| ippon | join#minsk | 15:33 |
| Gargille | qin, is this issue of not being able to login through the gui because of a messed up hardware install?? | 15:33 |
| lotuspsychje | Koobilitoo: yes its very fast | 15:33 |
| joseph_ | what can i use to examine the status of a running raid 0+1 ? | 15:33 |
| Koobilitoo | ok but they are pricey | 15:33 |
| qin | Gargille: Cannot imagine it yes, but in general yes. | 15:33 |

| reya276 | How can I get my dell M1330 laptop to move past the "*checking battery state" on boot up(running Ubuntu 10.10)? | 15:34 |
| Koobilitoo | not as much as a ssd | 15:34 |
| Gargille | qin, fatal server error. server already active for display 0 | 15:34 |
| lotuspsychje | Koobilitoo: for me its worth it | 15:34 |
| zxiest | What does "Too many levels of symbolic links" means? | 15:34 |
| zxiest | mean* | 15:34 |
| qin | Gargille: Right, in white box: exit | 15:34 |
| dasadsdasdssssda | h | 15:34 |
| dasadsdasdssssda | hi | 15:34 |
| qin | Gargille: and: startx | 15:34 |
| lotuspsychje | Polah: i run natty 64 bit on ssd, very fast | 15:35 |
| Koobilitoo | oh Kewl Lotus | 15:35 |
| compdoc | my mythbuntu 11.04 runs on a SSD - works great | 15:35 |
| lotuspsychje | Koobilitoo: try youtube ssd startups on 64 bit | 15:35 |
| Koobilitoo | being a dual core pc does that automatically qualify it as 64? | 15:35 |
| ActionPa1snip | zxiest: symbolic links are like windows shortcuts but actually make the OS think the data is really there, it doesn't see a shortcut | 15:36 |
| ActionPa1snip | Koobilitoo: no | 15:36 |
| lotuspsychje | compdoc: nice! | 15:36 |
| wols_ | Koobilitoo: there are a few dualcore cpus that are not 64bit capable. few, but they exist | 15:36 |
| compdoc | Koobilitoo, they tend to be these days | 15:36 |
| ActionPa1snip | Koobilitoo: I have a dual core laptop which is 32bit | 15:36 |
| zxiest | ActionPa1snip got it... So what's "too many levels" ? | 15:36 |
| ActionPa1snip | Koobilitoo: websearch to find out what arch the CPU is | 15:36 |
| petrolman | Why do the ubuntu developer recommend the 32 bit version of Ubuntu in general? | 15:36 |
| Koobilitoo | i guess that manufactures website would let you know | 15:36 |
| zxiest | Is a link linking to a link that's linking back to it? | 15:36 |
| jeremym | I am getting this error when trying to install a newer version of sudo. http://paste.ubuntu.com/616786/ Im running Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS | 15:36 |
| lotuspsychje | compdoc: mythbuntu also unity default? | 15:37 |
| ActionPa1snip | zxiest: not sure there dude, possibly too many subfolders, or long paths etc. Never met that one before | 15:37 |
| coz_ | lotuspsychje, ooo I dont the answer to that one | 15:37 |
| Koobilitoo | as far as web browser for me Chromium seems to work the fastest | 15:37 |
| zxiest | ActionPa1snip alright.. no biggie =) Thanks man =) | 15:37 |
| ActionPa1snip | petrolman: some 3rd party developers only make 32bio | 15:37 |
| Koobilitoo | First It was firefox then swiftfox then Chromum | 15:37 |
| compdoc | lotuspsychje, mythbuntu doesnt use unity. And you dont have to use unity on the desktop Ubuntu either | 15:38 |
| saliak | Anyone have experience with USB HID devices and getting input from them? I have a barcode scanner that outputs scans to stdin when i'm logged into the computer at the terminal. However, I need to capture that stream from an ssh session. I can get the raw input from /dev/hidraw0, but it's garbage. I have a feeling there should be some way to get it the same way it looks at the terminal. How would I make a pipe from what is normally going t | 15:38 |
| saliak | terminal to my ssh session? | 15:38 |
| Koobilitoo | Chromium I mean | 15:38 |
| ActionPa1snip | Koobilitoo: same here, chromium daily + 64bit flash + 64bit java :) | 15:38 |
| Koobilitoo | altho you know Action Srware made a redo of chromium which is even faster yet | 15:38 |
| magicj | I am getting the message: Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display - how do I fix this - all works as far as I can see EXCEPT the screen saver, which is when this happens | 15:39 |
| ActionPa1snip | Koobilitoo: got a link? | 15:39 |
| Koobilitoo | going to look right now | 15:39 |
| petrolman | ActionPa1snip, but 32 bit programs also run on a 64 bit system, hm | 15:39 |
| squig | is there a console ip setting program (or is that vi) like setup on a redhat/fedora system | 15:40 |
| lotuspsychje | petrolman: i can only reccomend ubuntu 64 bit | 15:40 |
| magicj | saliak: I use usb devices all the time - I believe that you are getting the scan codes not the keys so they are not garbage, you just need to convert from scan code to key | 15:40 |
| jeremym | no matter what i do i get this: iles list file for package `libfreetype6' is missing final newline | 15:40 |
| jeremym | dpkg: ../../src/packages.c:252: process_queue: Assertion `!queuelen' failed. | 15:40 |
| jeremym | E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg exited unexpectedly | 15:40 |
| Koobilitoo | did u get that ActionPalsnip? | 15:41 |
| saliak | magicj: i see. is that a standard thing? there's no documentation that came with the reader. what would i search for to learn how to do this? | 15:41 |
| Gargille | qin, OH CRAP! I have a flash drive on a usb. reboot. | 15:41 |
| ubuntu-dum | i want to change my resolution in my tty screens, im using ubuntu 11.04 on a acer z5600.. the resolution of my screen is 1920x1080 but in tty everything looks small and text doesnt take up whole screen... help? | 15:41 |
| magicj | saliak: from my experience - they are all that way because they simulate a keyboard - so there really is no need for documentation | 15:42 |
| Gargille | qin, compdoc, sorry. this is dumb on my part. | 15:42 |
| shugart | does network manager not work at all for VPN connections in 11.04 now ? | 15:42 |
| compdoc | Gargille, stuff happens | 15:42 |
| magicj | saliak: there are a couple of strange aspects I have found however, some send shift before every alpha chanracted to make them UCS, some don't, etc - just experiment | 15:42 |
| saliak | magicj: i see. ok. so is there a standard translation table? when i login to a local terminal, it spits out readable ascii, so it must use a us keyboard mapping, right? | 15:43 |
| qin | ubuntu-dum: setupcon or follow this: http://idyllictux.wordpress.com/2010/04/26/lucidubuntu-10-04-high-resolution-plymouth-virtual-terminal-for-atinvidia-cards-with-proprietaryrestricted-driver/ | 15:43 |
| Gargille | compdoc, qin, I am very sorry. I guess its the three days of trying to get it running. | 15:43 |
| magicj | saliak: that is the other wird thing about scan codes - just a pain - but realistically just test and see what you get from yours and you will be set | 15:43 |
| qin | Gargille: ok, what we standing on? | 15:44 |
| wols_ | jeremym: uninstall the package with dpkg, redownload it via a browser and reinstall it with dpkg | 15:44 |
| saliak | magicj: cool, thanks. | 15:44 |
| RA_drc | !isight | 15:44 |
| Gargille | qin, compdoc, ok reboot clean now. I double checked everything. nothing connected. I cant login through the GUI. but ok through the ttys. | 15:44 |
| jeremym | dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq libfreetype6 but its complaining about dependencies...is there a way to force it to remove and leave the deps? | 15:45 |
| qin | Gargille: Just: startx | 15:45 |
| jeremym | i can reinstall the file aftewards | 15:45 |
| jeremym | er package i mean | 15:45 |
| compdoc | Gargille, did you install or upgrade the vendor proprietary video card drivers? | 15:46 |
| Gargille | qin, a startx on tty1 says fatal server error: server is already active for display 0 etc.. I guess thats true as tty8 has the login screen all pinkishpurple. I now hate that color by the way. | 15:46 |
| Koobilitoo | ok this is what it says | 15:47 |
| Koobilitoo | data bus width 64 bits | 15:47 |
| Koobilitoo | address bus width 32 bits | 15:47 |
| Gargille | compdoc, upgrade. I do a regular update every couple of days. a sudo apt-get update and upgrade. | 15:47 |
| qin | Gargille: oh, so it runs somwhere, sudo killall Xorg | 15:47 |
| compdoc | Gargille, the opensource drivers tend to work better for me | 15:47 |

| Night_Elf | Any ideas ? | 15:48 |
| jeremym | wols_, i have found --force-depends to turn the dependency errors into warnings but everytime i try to remove the package or any package i get: files list file for package `libfreetype6' is missing final newline and it wont do it | 15:48 |
| Gargille | qin, compdoc, did a killall. a login screen poped up. | 15:48 |
| qin | Gargille: And? | 15:48 |
| wols_ | jeremym: go to /var/lib/dpkg/info/libfreetype6.list and add a newline or two at the end | 15:49 |
| wols_ | jeremym: make a backup of the file first | 15:49 |
| qin | Gargille: Gdm login? Did you login? Is it frozen yet? | 15:49 |
| jeremym | ok will try that ty | 15:49 |
| Gargille | qin, nope. I type my password and click unlock but it crashes and I get pushed back to the login screen. | 15:50 |
| computerx | Hi, is there some way to make a process run slower? I have 3 PCs running ffmpeg solid for about a week, it's a hot day. My CPU is 87 deg, my wife's 75 and the fileserver is beeping at me... I don't want to stop the process.... | 15:50 |
| qin | Gargille: In tty1: sudo service gdm stop | 15:50 |
| Koobilitoo | get a fan in that room or a small AC | 15:50 |
| Gargille | qin, It does not freeze. just pops back to the login screen. | 15:50 |
| qin | Gargille: ^^ | 15:50 |
| wols_ | computerx: cgroups for example | 15:50 |
| wols_ | computerx: non trivial to use tho | 15:50 |
| ResQue | will the mklable command in parted make a new partition or just rename an exsiting one | 15:50 |
| Polah | computerx, fahrenheit or celsius? | 15:51 |
| computerx | heh, I have two fans, one pointing at my CPU already... | 15:51 |
| Gargille | qin, gdm stop/waiting | 15:51 |
| computerx | Celsius | 15:51 |
| qin | Gargille: startx | 15:51 |
| Koobilitoo | u have to circulate the air not keep it in the room | 15:51 |
| coz_ | Gargille, ooo I cant of a way to run an already running process slower,, fans may be the solution | 15:51 |
| computerx | I'm trying to get it out, trust me :p | 15:51 |
| wols_ | computerx: what cpu is this? most modern ones don't like that high temps :) | 15:51 |
| Polah | Computerx: Don't point it towards your computer, point it away, i.e. the back of the fan is facing your computer | 15:51 |

| Polah | computerx: Are you sure it's not fahrenheit? 130 C is well beyond any processor's maximum operating limits. | 15:54 |
| qin | Gargille: In tty2: jockey-text -l | 15:54 |
| computerx | Same as reported with lm-sensors | 15:54 |
| computerx | So, degrees | 15:54 |
| Gargille | qin, also something about XKEYBOARD and xkbcomp | 15:55 |
| qin | computerx: I think record (recorded) was 84 C and some smoke. | 15:55 |
| computerx | Err, celcius.. | 15:55 |
| saliak | magicj: cool. i've got the right number of characters now, but the mapping isn't right yet. | 15:55 |
| tirhak | hi guys | 15:55 |
| wols_ | computerx: ANY cpu made out of silicon will physically burn out at 120°. no chip made on silicon ever run at 120°C | 15:55 |
| Gargille | coz_, laptop cool like a brick. thanks. :) | 15:55 |
| Koobilitoo | Qin LOL wow :D | 15:55 |
| p3rp | is it a bad idea installing ubuntu without creating partitions on an entire hard drive? | 15:55 |
| tirhak | i keep getting these need root restricted stuff on installs and everything | 15:55 |
| wols_ | p3rp: not a bad idea | 15:55 |
| coz_ | Gargille, ok hope t his works out for you | 15:55 |
| computerx | Do you think it's adding the internal core temps together? | 15:55 |
| Night_Elf | genii-around: The online/connected machine has all repositories possible enabled. But the point is that whatever apt-offline says about how things are done, the "set" command is given at the offline/disconnected machine, as this is the entire point. Unless there's an undocumented first step that has to be done and make the offline machine aware of the repositories which it (understandably)misses. | 15:56 |
| coz_ | computerx, which temps are you looking for specifically? | 15:56 |
| tirhak | installed apache 2 and cant edit index.html cause its owned by the root | 15:56 |
| wols_ | computerx: no. but it can misreport temperatures. compare BIOS temperatures and the ones you get in ubuntu | 15:56 |
| Gargille | coz_ thanks. | 15:56 |
| computerx | wols_: they match | 15:56 |
| tirhak | i think if i do a reintalll of 11.04 vs a upgrade i should be ok | 15:56 |
| coz_ | Gargille, do you know how to check the hard drive temps? | 15:56 |
| qin | p3rp: It is very good to have /, /home separate, 10Gb, whatever respectively | 15:56 |
| rodhash | Hello guys.. I need little help with zic.. my ubuntu boots up with a weird time, like -3h behind the correct.. and just after I log in Gnome my system date changes to the correct... defined by zic on /etc/localtime | 15:56 |
| computerx | coz_: I'm not looking for a temp, but I'm monitoring it because I know I'm operating *very* hot | 15:57 |
| Night_Elf | genii-around: And actually, the online machine doesn't even need to be Ubuntu, or linux at all for that matter. | 15:57 |
| wols_ | tirhak: no it won't change that index.html is owned by root | 15:57 |
| Koobilitoo | 130 C is 266 F | 15:57 |
| eaSy | Hello | 15:57 |
| magicj | saliak: there are many web pges that give u the mappings | 15:57 |
| coz_ | computerx, oh! well the more critical temp is the hard drive if it is not ssd | 15:57 |
| mikef187 | are the main ubuntu update servers having trouble? | 15:57 |
| computerx | The bios definitely said 125 degrees celcius after a 1 min break and restart >.> | 15:57 |
| qin | Gargille: graphic is more important, try to disable nvidia driver. | 15:57 |
| Gargille | qin, 4 lines: line 1 is: xorg:nvidia_173 - NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (proprietary, Disabled, not in use) | 15:57 |

| computerx | coz_: No no, CPU | 15:58 |
| lotuspsychje | computerx: does your cpu fan blowing? | 15:58 |

| mikef187 | anyone else getting 404 on ubuntu update servers? | 15:59 |
| wols_ | lotuspsychje: would you link us to these tools asus made for running under ubuntu? *g* | 15:59 |
| computerx | No, I'm just using the bios and lm-sensors (which match) | 15:59 |
| Gargille | qin, line 4 is: xorg:nouveau experimental 3D support for NVIDIA cards (Free, disabled, not in use) | 16:00 |
| computerx | Do Asus have monitoring tools for linux? Their website is so bad, I avoid it as much as possible | 16:00 |
| lotuspsychje | wols_: maybe wine can handle it just for testing | 16:00 |
| tirhak | minimmum system requires just ram what about processor speed | 16:00 |
| eaSy | I've just install ubuntu 11.04 on my laptop, and I can't use my wireless card, this is the error : http://pastebin.com/tX58NuAc | 16:00 |

| wols_ | lotuspsychje: you need to learn what hardware accessing programs need me thinks | 16:02 |
| computerx | I guess I'll have to knock up a bash script to monitor the cpu temp, and pause the ffmpeg process if it hits a certain level | 16:02 |
| eaSy | treebeen: How can I do? | 16:02 |
| Gargille | yes laptop. AMD turion x64 x2 with nvidia geforce go 7400 | 16:02 |

| wols_ | petrolman: what are the two different values at the same time? | 16:07 |
| Koobilitoo | I dont remmber its not the OSE one | 16:07 |
| Qas | Koobilitoo: ok, you probably just need to make sure you are a member of the vboxusrs group | 16:08 |
| Koobilitoo | and that would do what? | 16:08 |
| Koobilitoo | make the option work correctly? | 16:08 |

| wols_ | !quota | 16:30 |
| Gp2mv3 | salut | 16:30 |
| wols_ | azlon: via quotas | 16:30 |
| SegFaultAX | computerx: Is there an issue syncing my primary /dev/sda onto another drive while it's in use, though? | 16:30 |
| Gp2mv3 | hi* sorry | 16:30 |
| SegFaultAX | computerx: I essentially want a continuous backup system. | 16:31 |
| azlon | !quotas | 16:31 |
| wols_ | SegFaultAX: yes. don't let anything write to that drive while you sync or you could lose data | 16:31 |

| wols_ | azlon: ubottu has no factoid about it. ubuntu wiki or google most certainly has | 16:31 |
| wols_ | SegFaultAX: remount it read only | 16:31 |
| ActionPa1snip | SegFaultAX: you can use dd or partimage (both in live cd) to copy the data) | 16:31 |
| SegFaultAX | Gp2mv3: Don't use flash on linux on under-powered machines. | 16:31 |
| wols_ | Gp2mv3: threaten to burn adobe programmers until they give you a solution | 16:32 |
| SegFaultAX | ActionPa1snip: I want it to be tolerant of reboots and normal use. Which is why I want continuous syncro instead of a one-time snapshot. | 16:32 |
| Gp2mv3 | SegFaultAX: I dont think a core 2 duo is an under-powered machine. | 16:32 |
| SegFaultAX | wols_: That might work for my /home filesystem, but surely I can't remount / as ro? | 16:32 |

| fellipe | hi friends. do anyone knows a solution to make image backup of a entire OS without turn off the server? | 16:40 |
| ActionPa1snip | fellipe: you will need the partitions offline to image. You will need to schedule some down time | 16:41 |
| SegFaultAX | fellipe: Do you jsut need a one time snapshot? | 16:41 |
| fellipe | well | 16:42 |
| computerx | This is what I do use, and will adapt to a cron job: http://pastebin.com/bqXx4Ugi | 16:42 |
| fellipe | it's a snapshot | 16:42 |
| fellipe | would be ok | 16:42 |

| Roomba | hey hello guys. How can i set a rewriterule that applies to everything and override it later? thanks. | 16:45 |
| osse | Is there a nice way to search all buffers? :grep and :vimgrep seems to be tailored for files. :bufdo g// is a bit harsh since it changes the buffer your in etc and reports errors. Ditto for :bufdo /pattern | 16:45 |
| osse | s/your/you're/ | 16:45 |
| azlon | how can i auto delete the oldest file when a folder reaches a certain size? for example, if i have 10 500MB files and i want to add another 500 MB file, i would need to delete the oldest file in the folder first. what would i search on google for this? | 16:46 |
| Roomba | i simply want to redirect anything to 404 and explicitly allow only some folders | 16:46 |
| SegFaultAX | osse: Normally I would suggest bufdo, but if you can't use them, what are you trying to do exactly? | 16:47 |
| ChrisBuchholz | How do i search for "network shares"? My WD TV HD Live mediacenter shares the external harddrive connected to it over the network (and i can see it in the networks tab in finder under OS X) so how do i find it and add it so i can access its content? | 16:47 |
| osse | SegFaultAX, oh god. This was meant for the #vim channel :/ I would basically like to grep all buffers. :bufdo g// is ok, but if it doesn't find anything it prints errors, and it changes the buffer you're in when it's done | 16:48 |

| computerx | gksudo then | 16:56 |
| wols_ | and your ubuntu runs inside a VM and shows ~30% usage in top and 34% usage in system monitor. while it's not exactly the same, it pretty much is realistically the same | 16:56 |

| Guest56932 | Hmm | 17:11 |
| ebisudave | wols_: Nautilus shows my Android device as if it were a directory called /media/ANDROID16GB.

| Guest56932 | wols_ there's no button in linux which will activate the open proc? | 17:18 |

| tucemiux | reber, the DVD that youre trying to play is DVD +R? if it's DVD -R you **might** be out of luck, also it looks like you bought the DVD in another country from where you bought DVD rom, have you ever been able to watch the DVD? | 17:21 |

| tucemiux | reber, again - you never mentioned what type of DVD you have, if its DVD+ or DVD-, im trying to figure out a technical reason why the DVD wouldnt work on your computer -- look at the link and troubleshoot from there, make sure you have all software installed | 17:25 |
| ActionPa1snip | m3asmi: may help, try using that. May be a quick fix :) | 17:25 |
| ActionPa1snip | m3asmi: oh, you DON'T. Misread it | 17:25 |
| SultansElephant | I've been having problems, probably due to compositing I'm guessing, with the top bar in applications disappearing, docky not unhiding itself on mouseover or not compositing (not sure), on-mouse over pop up description things not going away (like 'Close Window') and being unable, usually when switching between workspaces, to get back to a program in another workspace.. it sort of just acts like its not on top | 17:25 |

| wols_ | avinashhm: apt-get install libusb libusb-dev should fix it. you will probably need to apt-get upgrade anyways | 17:26 |
| thoidingjam | ? he left lol, :) | 17:27 |
| ebisudave | Okay, so I guess my question has evolved. Why can I see my Android with "sudo fdisk -l", but not with "mount |grep sdb". | 17:27 |
| thoidingjam | again. | 17:27 |

| whatsup159951 | how to access more than one channel via irssi? | 17:27 |
| avinashhm | wols_, i get .. E: Couldn't find package libusb .. ;-( .. can't update since not much space .. | 17:27 |
| m3asmi | ActionPa1snip : think you verry much ;) | 17:27 |
| wols_ | ebisudave: I don't use nautilus so I dunno how it accesses your android device. if /mnt is an empty directory you can "sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt" provided sudo fdisk -l shows a sdb1 | 17:28 |
| joel135 | m3asmi: you can use /etc/mtab as a template | 17:28 |
| ActionPa1snip | m3asmi: np man | 17:28 |
| saliak | I have device that shows up under /dev/hidraw1 .. is it possible to make a udev rule that'd give it a consistent name elsewhere (like /dev/scanner)? I've tried "SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTR{idVendor}=="04b4", ATTR{idProduct}=="bca1", MODE="0666", SYMLINK+="barcode"" with no luck. any ideas? | 17:28 |
| wildc4rd | evenin all | 17:29 |
| tucemiux | whatsup159951, go to youtube and search for an irssi tutorial | 17:29 |
| wols_ | avinashhm: apt-get update && apt-get install libusb-0.1-4 libusb-dev | 17:29 |
| ebisudave | wols_: Hey... nice! I can see the contents of my Android device at least. | 17:30 |
| Pici | whatsup159951: http://irssi.org has a bunch of nice documentation. | 17:30 |
| wols_ | whatsup159951: /join anotherchannel and then switch via "alt+2" and "alt+3" and so on | 17:30 |
| m3asmi | joel135: no ,it have just the partition without the / partition | 17:30 |
| whatsup159951 | wols_, thanks a lot :) | 17:31 |
| thoidingjam | can you help me with system password at start up? i dont have one, i want one . how? | 17:31 |
| ActionPa1snip | m3asmi: then you won't need my /home line, just the one for / | 17:31 |
| tucemiux | wols_, where do I configure my username and password in irsi?? o.O | 17:31 |
| wols_ | whatsup159951: gdm should prompt you for a password. if it doesn't run gksudo gdm-setup (I think...) | 17:31 |
| wols_ | tucemiux: for that you read the beginner documentation on irssi.org. it explains it | 17:32 |
| ActionPa1snip | thoidingjam: hold shift at boot, select recovery mode then select root. You can then run: passwd foo to set the password of foo, you can reboot by running: reboot and log on as foo with the password you set | 17:32 |
| wols_ | oops. thoidingjam that was for you,not whatsup159951 | 17:32 |
| tucemiux | wols_, i thought I would cheat and ask you but thanks for the link though LoL I just installed irssi right now and taking it for a test spin | 17:32 |
| wols_ | tucemiux: your question can't be answered in one line which is why the documentation is the better way | 17:33 |
| ebisudave | wols_: I can't seem to unmount the drive. When I do "sudo umount /mnt", it says "device is busy". How do I unmount it? | 17:33 |

| KM0201 | jtannenbaum: why don't you just put grub on the mbr, like most normal people? | 17:39 |
| mikebeecham | hi guys - I've got the lastest version and all my updates are up-to-date. However, the framerate on ALL videos is REALLY slow. What could be causing this? | 17:39 |
| szal | jtannenbaum: of course you won't see "/home" when you mount the partition to /mnt | 17:39 |
| Jordan_U | jetole: Add the "rootwait" kernel parameter. | 17:39 |
| wols_ | mikebeecham: wrong/bad videodriver | 17:40 |
| FrankZ96 | DO you guys know if there are ways of booting the Pendrive instead of CD? I need to install my Windows ISO but I don't have a decent cd yet, I have a pendrive with the ISO File, but would it work ? I don't know x,x | 17:40 |
| jtannenbaum | no, the point is when I mounted it it only mounted /home | 17:40 |
| mikebeecham | wols....how would I check mate? | 17:40 |
| thoidingjam | later then. | 17:40 |
| jtannenbaum | KM0201: no idea | 17:40 |
| jjflash | is there any information describing how ubuntu automounts drivers? i.e.: interaction between udev and udisks? | 17:40 |
| ActionPa1snip | FrankZ96: there are ways, i'd ask in ##windows | 17:40 |
| KM0201 | jtannenbaum: you're making this way harder than necessary but.. proceed. | 17:40 |
| wols_ | FrankZ96: yes it can work if you put your windows files properly on the usb flashdrive. but we don't know how since we run ubuntu obviously. you can mount your flashdrive easily with "mount" | 17:40 |
| eiriksvin | heheheee, my cats benny thinks hes a dog, he has a piece of meat from a sizzler steak and hes carryin it around in his mouth, like woof, I'mma eat this steak! | 17:41 |
| FrankZ96 | I can't understand it well yet :/ If I have the .iso file in pendrive what do I have to change in Linux? I use xubuntu and I got windows xp deleted long time ago, so I need to make a new partition or something like that :/ | 17:41 |
| wols_ | eiriksvin: please keep on topic | 17:41 |
| eiriksvin | sorry :D | 17:41 |
| Pici | eiriksvin: If you just want to chat, use #ubuntu-offtopic | 17:42 |
| hazz | Pici, ok done it i was get a wrong idea thanks indeed for your suggestion | 17:42 |
| wols_ | FrankZ96: we don't know about windows. we only know about ubuntu. we cannot help you in finding out how you put your windows iso file on the usb stick | 17:42 |
| Pici | hazz: you're welcome. | 17:42 |

| jtannenbaum | it's flagged with boot last time I gparted | 17:44 |

| wols_ | tucemiux: #irssi is a great channel for irssi questions. as is the documentation on irssi.org | 17:45 |
| banetoid | i did chek the winehq, but it didn't help. I don't know how to use wine and there is old information btw | 17:46 |
| sivakumar | is there any software for .net | 17:46 |
| wols_ | banetoid: even old information is valuable | 17:46 |
| tucemiux | wols_, but I wonder if there's anyone with a pulse in there, lemme go find out | 17:46 |
| wols_ | sivakumar: lots. apt-cache search mono | 17:46 |
| sivakumar | lots | 17:46 |
| wols_ | tucemiux: yes there is. but people who seem to be to lazy to read docs might not get answers. occupational hazard of the lazy | 17:46 |
| magicj | my screen saver fails. Reason is: Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display, how do I fix this? | 17:47 |
| banetoid | It just tells, what works with that game, what doesn't, i dont know even how to use the program | 17:47 |
| jtannenbaum | wols_: mounted it, the home folder is empty | 17:47 |
| sivakumar | wols_, what lots. is it a package | 17:47 |
| jtannenbaum | as in not my Linux | 17:47 |
| Jordan_U | jtannenbaum: The boot flag is irrelevant as far as grub is concerned. You definitely do *not* want to install grub to sda2, or any partition. Grub's boot sector should always be installed to the mbr, /dev/sda. | 17:47 |
| wols_ | jtannenbaum: cause your home folder is in /dev/sda5.... | 17:47 |
| jtannenbaum | yes, which I believe is my linux parition that I boot to | 17:48 |
| wols_ | sivakumar: no. it is the common english word "lots". use a dictionary if you need an explanation for it | 17:48 |
| jtannenbaum | or used to until Windows stole the attention | 17:48 |
| wols_ | jtannenbaum: no it never was. sda1 is your linux partition you booted. always was and unless you change a lot more always will be | 17:48 |
| wols_ | jtannenbaum: /dev/sda5 is your /home partition. you use for some reason or other two partitions for your linux installation | 17:49 |

| avinashhm | Hi , while doing apt-get update, i get ' 404 Not Found [IP: 199.33.184.230 80]' .. is there a new ip to use ? | 17:52 |
| avinashhm | any help pls | 17:52 |
| ikonia | sivakumar: if you are not aware of this, I suggest you research mono on linux | 17:52 |
| wols_ | avinashhm: full commandline and its output would be better | 17:52 |
| sivakumar | ikonia, thank u for sql sever | 17:52 |
| ebisudave | wols_: There doesn't seem to be anything in the Banshee interface to do it manually. All online indications are that it is supposed to happen automagically. | 17:52 |

| jtannenbaum | ok, I installed grub on sda1, now it only boots to Ubuntu | 17:54 |
| sivakumar | ikonia, no no i am asking u for sql server software which is needed for .net software | 17:54 |
| rww | avinashhm: Looks like you have jaunty and lucid repositories enabled. Figure out which version you actually have with the command "lsb_release -a". | 17:54 |
| ikonia | sivakumar: you need to research mono - it's quite a large subject | 17:54 |
| wols_ | avinashhm: jaunty is end of live. doesn't exist anymore. and sinec you run lucid, you don't need thoes repos anymore either | 17:55 |
| rww | avinashhm: Jaunty is EOL, so that's why its repositories aren't working. If you're still on there, I'll give you upgrade information. If you're on lucid, you can just remove the jaunty repositories. | 17:55 |

| Mrono | JodaZ: nothing specific, just don't think it's a good idea to have all the ports open all the time | 18:08 |
| nabi | ok | 18:09 |
| GTRsdk | nabi, so go to upgrade manager and upgrade to 8.04 then to 10.04 | 18:09 |
| wols_ | Mrono: then don't open them in the first place | 18:09 |

| Mrono | wols_: what do you mean | 18:09 |
| nabi | GTRsdk where is upgrade manager | 18:09 |
| KM0201 | nabi: it might be faster to just install 10.04 clean | 18:09 |
| nabi | ? | 18:09 |
| JodaZ | Mrono, only ports that applications open are open... close the applications that you don't want to have ports open, usually if you don't need the port open you don't also need the application running on a server | 18:09 |
| Mrono | wols_: this is running on a server connected directly to the internet, no firewall inbetween | 18:09 |
| jjflash | ebisudave: check private :) | 18:09 |
| wols_ | Mrono: I mean if you don't want a port open, a firewall (in reality a packet filter) is not the proper way to fix it | 18:09 |
| GTRsdk | nabi, is it under System -> Administration -> Update Manager? | 18:09 |
| wols_ | avinashhm: http://paste.ubuntu.com/616899/ | 18:10 |
| wols_ | avinashhm: apt-cache policy libusb-0.1-4 libusb-dev then | 18:10 |
| Mrono | wols_: I see, I was under the impression that there was more to it | 18:10 |
| nabi | GTRsdk| ok i find it | 18:10 |
| JodaZ | Mrono, netstat -naptuw to check whats running on what port, then uninstall via apt or configure accordingly (db only has to listen on 127.0.0.1 for example) | 18:10 |
| KM0201 | nabi: given the amount of time it will take to upgrade 6.06 to 8.04, thne 8.04 to 10.04 (so that you have a supported release) it would be faster to just clean install 10.04 | 18:10 |

| GTRsdk | Palzieri, I know of a dangerous way to upgrade and a safer way. You can use the alternative (which is the safer way) disc | 18:40 |
| basilfaulty | !kubuntu | 18:40 |

| kadeng | Hi all .. | 18:40 |
| jasonrichardsmit | hello all. Quick question. I want to be able to restart the bluetooth service, ie "/etc/init.d/bluetooth restart" as a user, but its the only user level privilege I want to change. Any idea if this can be done? | 18:40 |
| ActionPa1snip | jasonrichardsmit: prefix with sudo, it will happen | 18:41 |
| wols_ | ActionPa1snip: read again what he asks | 18:41 |
| === brianl|a is now known as brianl | ||
| kadeng | Does someone know if there's any package mirror for Ubuntu 9.04 left ? Upgrading is no option. | 18:41 |
| wols_ | and yes that can be done with sudo but not without additionaly configuration of sudoers | 18:41 |
| wols_ | kadeng: archive.ubuntu.com | 18:41 |
| govatent | hey does anyone have any advice for using java with a microphone? I switched to sun java plugin and am using cisco's webex for school and can't make the microphone work. i don't want to use windows for it cause i don't dual boot or have a vbox setup. | 18:42 |
| kadeng | wols: Doesn' look like it: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ - that's actually what I tried. | 18:42 |
| jasonrichardsmit | here is the issue. I have a bluetooth keyboard that loses connection, due to old style unsupported dongle. When it loses connection I lose keyboard. I wanted to make a quick bash script that I could double click on and restart the service | 18:42 |
| jasonrichardsmit | which means I can't type a password | 18:42 |
| jasonrichardsmit | because no keyboard | 18:43 |
| maco | jasonrichardsmit: perhaps set the path to the script as NOPASSWD in /etc/sudoers? | 18:43 |
| jasonrichardsmit | thanks | 18:43 |
| ChrisBuchholz | Is it possible to install a package that exists in the maverick branch of a ppa while still having the rest of the apps from the natty branch? | 18:43 |
| jasonrichardsmit | I will try that | 18:43 |
| KM0201 | Palzieri: if you upgrade 9.04, you need to upgrade to 9.10, then 9.10 to 10.04, rather than going straight to 10.04 | 18:44 |
| wols_ | ChrisBuchholz: yes. usually you "backport" it. sometimes you can even install directly but very rarely | 18:44 |
| ChrisBuchholz | wols_: i will google it, thank you :) | 18:44 |
| ShaneM | Hey someone I know is trying to get in their wireless to work in 11.04. They're having the same problem as described in this thread. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1244686 The closest package I can find to the suggested fix is linux-backports-modules-net-natty-generic which doesn't seem to fix the problem. | 18:44 |
| wols_ | ChrisBuchholz: you add deb-src for maverick, download the sources for the package and then build the package with dpkg-buildpackage and install that. that's the short version when everything works | 18:45 |
| basilfaulty | is it possible to virtualize my gpus? | 18:45 |
| ChrisBuchholz | wols_: okay, sounds easy enough. Will try | 18:45 |
| gedO | Hello. I have small problem right here. When I mount ISO file I can't install anything from there, because it have read only format. How I should mount it to get access to change to executable bits ??? | 18:45 |

| basilfaulty | gedo cp itto ur home dir | 18:46 |
| gedO | basilfaulty, Any way without copy??? | 18:46 |
| tommylommykins | hi, I want to make the unity taskbar always stay open. | 18:46 |
| tommylommykins | How can I do this? | 18:46 |
| basilfaulty | the clue is the fact that cd's are read only :P | 18:46 |
| wols_ | ShaneM: what wlan chip do you actually have. that thread is 2 years old and the chip discussed has been long supported in linux by now | 18:46 |
| basilfaulty | so changing an executable bit can't be done | 18:46 |
| basilfaulty | is it a shell script? | 18:47 |
| gedO | basilfaulty, Okey :) | 18:47 |
| basilfaulty | cos sh /path/ might work | 18:47 |
| gedO | basilfaulty, It is exe file | 18:47 |
| Inso | Hi, I'm having enormous problems. Shift+backspace logs me out, and I can't find it under preferences > keyboard shourtcuts. It's really annoying, I've logged myself out at least 5 times toda. | 18:47 |
| wols_ | basilfaulty: you can probably fake it if you mount it differently. but what do you actually want to run directly from CD? | 18:47 |
| gedO | wols_, I want to rune exe file from iso | 18:48 |
| jjflash | somebody here knows udev scripting? | 18:48 |

| basilfaulty | gedo: i've seen something with a union fs... don't quite get it tho | 18:48 |
| wols_ | gedO: there are no "exe file" in linux | 18:48 |
| jjflash | just need to do some tricks when mounting usb devices | 18:48 |
| gedO | wols_, I know. I want to run with wine | 18:48 |
| wols_ | jjflash: always ask your real questions. even if no one knows the answer | 18:48 |
| ShaneM | wols_: It's a HP Pavillion dv6 and it has the same wireless card as described. I know the fixed has been patched to the kernel because it doesn't seem to be working either way. | 18:48 |

| gavin_ | Hi, I was wondering if anyone would be able to shine some light on a VPN issue that doesn't seem to be well documented on Google? | 18:51 |
| jjflash | Question: I'm using ubuntu in a kiosk way (Embedded PC with touch panel) and i would like to report a custom software whenever an usb drive gets mounted in order the software to dump some data. At this moment i'm using a very simple udev rule that runs a shell scripts wich sends an UDP message to the software, but somebody (udisks i guess...) is still trying to mount the drive... | 18:51 |
| jigrap | has anyone gotten an ati 4670 to work with ubuntu 11.04? | 18:51 |
| Inso | My 4870 is working | 18:52 |
| maco | jjflash: i would suspect gvfs is doing the mounting | 18:52 |
| jigrap | I tried both the fglrx drivers and the ones from ATI and I didnt have any luck, then I tried the open source ones xserver-xorg-video-ati and -radeon and it didnt seem to work at all i got a black screen | 18:52 |
| jjflash | so my question is: is there any documentation describing how the hell ubuntu automounts the drives? | 18:52 |
| ShaneM | wols_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/616930/ | 18:52 |
| jjflash | maco: all i get from google is udev + udisks and documentation on gvfs is...well more or less inexistent :( | 18:52 |
| Mahmood | Hello World :) | 18:53 |
| jjflash | there are 2 solutions for me | 18:53 |
| maco | jjflash: gvfs is gnome's virtual filesystem stuff. i think the "what to do when media is inserted" settings are in nautilus | 18:53 |
| gavin_ | i've got a vpn server running in a ubuntu virtual machine. i've connected from a windows virtual machine, and the win box can ping the ubuntu box | 18:53 |
| gavin_ | however it ubuntu server can't ping the win machine. is it a routing issue? | 18:53 |
| gavin_ | or something more sinister? | 18:54 |
| jjflash | 1) (The one i'm using) -> set a fixed point for the mount and run the script "SEND_UDP "hey! new drive at fixed point /media/fixedpoint" | 18:54 |
| wols_ | gavin_: most likely a VM issue | 18:54 |
| tiox | I have an HP printer and I am trying to use hp-setup to get it working, but there was something else I had to do that gave a CUPS ID or something like that. Anything else I should type into the terminal to do something for hp-setup to work properly, like it's always done for me? | 18:54 |
| gavin_ | ah | 18:54 |
| jjflash | maco: Nope, nautilus seems to be only a "listener" of the event, it acts after a sucessfully mounted drive has been reported | 18:54 |
| wols_ | ShaneM: check your kernel log as I said above | 18:55 |
| tiox | I know I need to do something, but I forgot the other thing before it I need to type in terminal. | 18:55 |
| McFadden | I have a local installed java in my home directory. It's appended to $PATH in .bashrc. Yet, "which java" returns /usr/bin/java, which is the system-wide java. It this because of /etc/alternatives/java pointing to that java? If so, how can I override it for just this user? | 18:55 |
| Malgorath | if oyu have a quad core and 4G ram is 64-bit better or can I use 32-bit still? | 18:55 |
| wols_ | Malgorath: use 64bit then | 18:55 |
| hypatia | Malgorath: you can use 32-bit, it'll install pae | 18:55 |
| jjflash | maco: i was trying to use udev to tell my software where the drive was mounted...but is not udev who is mounting the drive...so it doesn't know :( | 18:56 |
| wols_ | gavin_: messaging me unasked is a very fast way to an ignore. have a nice day | 18:56 |
| Malgorath | I'm gonna try to install 11.04 and dual boot with windows for now | 18:56 |
| hypatia | Malgorath: server or desktop? i still prefer 32 on desktops with less than about 6gb ram, but 64 on most servers | 18:56 |
| tiox | Nevermind, I think I got it. | 18:56 |
| Malgorath | hypatia, desktop. I just got a 6870 video card so i want to see if vid quality is better now for the games I play and may not have to go back to windows | 18:57 |
| wols_ | gavin_: and yet you do it again. *sigh* /ignore after all | 18:57 |
| jjflash | maco: (and all) this is working for me -> BUS=="usb", KERNEL=="sdb?", ACTION=="add", NAME="FIXEDPOINT", RUN+="/home/drive_in.sh" | 18:57 |
| gavin_ | i must not be that bothered after all | 18:57 |

| orgaZmo | i need help thanks | 19:02 |
| orgaZmo | i got error message when "sudo apt-get install openssh-server " | 19:02 |
| wols_ | jjflash: from what I know (almost nothing), udev is very badly documented. | 19:02 |
| Pici | orgaZmo: What error are you getting? | 19:03 |
| jjflash | wols_: i agree | 19:03 |
| jjflash | wols_: but not only udev...just the entire automagic process of automounting :? | 19:03 |
| jjflash | wols_: it seems that nobody really knows how it works | 19:04 |
| wols_ | nah. with automounting the problem is there are a gazillion ways to do it | 19:04 |
| ShaneM | wols_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/616936/ Kernel log | 19:04 |
| wols_ | every DE for example uses its own software for it | 19:04 |
| jjflash | wols_: yep, but ubuntu should be using one in a gazillion :P | 19:04 |
| jjflash | wols_: and i only interested on the ubuntu one :) | 19:04 |
| jjflash | i'm thinking on starting a wiki on "configure ubuntu for unattended kiosk mode | 19:05 |

| wols_ | jjflash: every DE available in ubuntu (gnome, kde, xfce, ...) uses a different one :P | 19:06 |
| wols_ | ShaneM: strange how there is nowhere an ath0 but no error message either :( | 19:06 |
| jjflash | wols_: really? i'm using the mainstream one....just gnome | 19:06 |
| ShaneM | wols_: Yeah I'm so confused about it. :( | 19:06 |
| ShaneM | wols_: It says the hardware is disabled by a wireless switch but it works fine on the Windows partition. | 19:07 |
| wols_ | ShaneM: maybe rfkill? | 19:07 |

| pfn | shentino, I dunno about making the root fs bigger, just make a new ramdrive and copy stuff over and symlink it back into the root | 19:26 |

| ActionParsnip | AlonzoTG: use minimal and build up. Uses less space | 19:57 |
| uragan | thanks for all who helped me recantly | 19:57 |
| AlonzoTG | How? | 19:57 |
| Guest46837 | anywone have a few mins to help | 19:57 |
| celthunder | AlonzoTG: debootstrap and do a min install...then add what you need | 19:57 |
| Jordan_U | !minimal | AlonzoTG | 19:57 |
| ubottu | AlonzoTG: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 19:57 |
| ActionParsnip | !minimal | AlonzoTG | 19:57 |
| AlonzoTG | Why is the normal installer so useless? | 19:57 |
| celthunder | AlonzoTG: because it's designed for people who want everything under the sun defaulted | 19:58 |
| * AlonzoTG hugs his gentoo machine. | 19:58 | |
| Mrokii | hello. Can somebody recommend a good scan application that works with SANE-scanners? | 19:58 |
| AlonzoTG | Will I have trouble getting wireless to work with the minimal CD? | 19:58 |
| ActionParsnip | AlonzoTG: its not. There's just a tonne of default apps which you don't have the luxury of space to hold | 19:59 |
| AlonzoTG | THEN SHOW ME THE LIST AND TURN THEM OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 | 19:59 |

| ken | AndChat: yep I have the IDs ID 1d6b:0001,1d6b:0002 . | 20:01 |
| ActionParsnip | mk85: checked the cron log? | 20:02 |
| Jordan_U | AlonzoTG: You can also use the Alternate install CD, which still contains all the packages needed to install on the CD itself but allows you to choose what to install. | 20:02 |
| Jordan_U | AlonzoTG: And I think it is possible to use wireless from the minimal and alternate CDs but I'm not sure. | 20:02 |
| mk85 | where are the cron log files | 20:02 |
| mk85 | i was looking in /var/log/syslog | 20:03 |

| rww | X2000: amd64 should be fine | 20:07 |
| mbeierl | X2000: how much ram? | 20:08 |
| ActionParsnip | mk85: then use the web to find where it is.....obvious next step...right? | 20:08 |
| ActionParsnip | X2000: is it a 64bit chip? | 20:08 |
| X2000 | im trying to use virtula box but on the xubuntu x86 os show max 4gb | 20:08 |
| mbeierl | X2000: < 4g I think 32 bit should be better as 64bit tends to use a larger memory footprint per process. unless you need a lot of math, then 64 bit will work | 20:08 |
| rww | ActionParsnip: all Core 2 CPUs are | 20:09 |
| sams | /list | 20:09 |

| rww | X2000: Q8300 is definitely 64-bit, though :) | 20:13 |

| bibliotheque | i am trying to run urban terror | 20:16 |
| mbeierl | X2000: My experience is that it depends on what you want to do and how much ram the system has | 20:17 |
| rww | X2000: yes, amd64 is okay to use on x86-64 Intels | 20:17 |
| bibliotheque | Pici: /home/bibliotheque/Downloads/UrbanTerror/ioUrbanTerror.x86_64 then i get a black screen, nothing else, i have to reboot | 20:17 |

| bibliotheque | how do you play urban terror 4? can t run it... ubuntu 64 bits | 20:19 |
| BlouBlou | bibliotheque: try running it with wine | 20:19 |
| BlouBlou | !wine | bibliotheque | 20:19 |

| bibliotheque | BlouBlou: and nothing else. I could see yesterday a not fullscreen window with redllines, some errors, but now, just nothing else than a black screen. | 20:21 |
| X2000 | 64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop CD xubuntu would be best then | 20:21 |
| bibliotheque | i m running kde4 | 20:21 |
| bibliotheque | kubuntu 64 bits actually | 20:21 |
| mk85 | ActionParsnip: that's what i did, but output is very minimal. The script used to run under cron, but I don't leave my computer on all the time so anacron seemed more appropriate | 20:21 |
| X2000 | 64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop CD xubuntu would be best then | 20:21 |
| BlouBlou | bibliotheque: "chmod +x <file>" and "./ioUrbanTerror.x86_64", do it after cd-ing to folder in which file is | 20:21 |
| ActionParsnip | bibliotheque: if you install it from getdeb is it ok? | 20:21 |

| ActionParsnip | Nixot: find the file then make a symlink in the same folder with the new name. If you can give the full path to the file you have, i can give the command | 20:25 |
| nixot | But the problem is it's libavutil.so.50 that it has installed, not libavutil.so.49 | 20:26 |
| nixot | oooohhh I get it | 20:26 |
| nixot | where would it be | 20:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Nixot: so you have 50 and need 49? | 20:26 |

| ubottu | Your GUI file manager's Trash folder is located at ~/.local/share/Trash/ for files moved to trash from your hard disk and .../.Trash-userid/ on external devices for files moved to trash from the device. | 20:47 |

| rww | phox_: I just said, ~/.local/share/Trash. Nautilus doesn't show hidden files by default, see the View menu for the option to show them | 20:49 |

| phox_ | mathgirl: ok | 20:56 |
| guntbert | irong33k: I don't understand your question - what do you want to do? | 20:57 |
| mathgirl | phox_ it's not showing up in my screen | 20:57 |

| mathgirl | @phox_ /usr/share/applications/evolution.desktop | 20:57 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: what is not? Ok, ill create that file. | 20:57 |
| freeburn | if i remove ubuntu-desktop package would it be a removal for gnome-softwares also? | 20:57 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ It looks like it's user:group are root:root and its chmod 644 | 20:57 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ The usr/share... wasn't showing up in my chatscreen. | 20:58 |
| econdudeawesome | If I already have a line for "text" in my grub default file, and yet it still boots to gdm, what do I need to fix? | 20:58 |
| coz_ | freeburn, what is it you want from a removal of that? | 20:58 |
| EmuAlert | How do I get my graphics back to the default when you install ubuntu? | 20:59 |
| jonesst1 | in ubuntu how do you pick which kernel to boot off? | 20:59 |
| freeburn | apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop | 20:59 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: how do set it to chmod 644? I'v looked in properties, but can't see it. | 20:59 |
| guntbert | econdudeawesome: did you run update-grub? | 20:59 |
| freeburn | i've moved to kde | 20:59 |
| econdudeawesome | jonesst1: with grub, hold shift at boot | 20:59 |
| freeburn | so i wanna get rid of unity actually | 20:59 |
| econdudeawesome | guntbert: I'm fairly sure I did, but it's been awhile | 20:59 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Whoa, are you doing this in a terminal? | 20:59 |
| jonesst1 | how do i do it permanently? | 20:59 |
| econdudeawesome | be back soon | 20:59 |
| jonesst1 | there is no menu.ist | 20:59 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ If not, open a terminal and I'll tell you what to type. | 21:00 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: nope, i wrote "gksudo nautilus" and clicked my way here. Ok do that =) | 21:00 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Okay, once you're in a terminal, type: | 21:00 |
| econdudeawesome | jonesst1: should be an option in /etc/default/grub -- i'm working on something similar to what you're doing sounds like | 21:00 |

| mathgirl | @phox_ cd /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications | 21:00 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: ok, that line i understand. | 21:01 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Then type cat evolution to make sure it contains the right contents. | 21:01 |
| gahlberg | anyone help me install ubuntu from a live cd? Have booted from live cd, now i want to install to hd. | 21:01 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Then type 'cat evolution' to make sure it contains the right contents. | 21:01 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: no such file. Remeber, it was called evolution.desktop? | 21:02 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Once you've got the right file there, just type | 21:02 |
| MonkeyDust | gahlberg: choose install and follow the intructions | 21:02 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Oh I see. | 21:02 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: i changed to evolution.desktop! :) | 21:02 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ 'cat evolution.desktop' | 21:02 |
| gahlberg | Monkeydust: you mean when the live cd is booting? | 21:03 |
| gahlberg | MonkeyDust: you mean when the live cd is booting? | 21:03 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ You don't want a file called evolution.desktop | 21:03 |
| MonkeyDust | gahlberg: wait until you have the ubuntu desktop, get used to the desktop, then click install | 21:04 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: just "evolution"? | 21:04 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Sorry, I've got you in the wrong directory. | 21:04 |
| econdudeawesome | guntbert: no love from the grub or grub2. Still ignoring the "text" option | 21:04 |
| gahlberg | MathDust: no such thing on desktop. Btw, i'm on ubuntu 5.04 :-) | 21:05 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Sorry, let's CD to the right place first. | 21:05 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ I was telling you the wrong thing. | 21:05 |
| gahlberg | MonkeyDust: no such thing on desktop. Btw, i'm on ubuntu 5.04 :-) | 21:05 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ First say | 21:05 |
| MonkeyDust | gahlberg: 5.04 is no longer supported, use a more recent version | 21:05 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ cd /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications | 21:05 |
| phox_ | mathgiril: hehe, no problem. | 21:05 |
| Jordan_U | gahlberg: Ubuntu 5.04 has not been supported for the better part of half a decade. | 21:05 |
| guntbert | econdudeawesome: did you try it directly in the grub menu? | 21:05 |
| Jordan_U | gahlberg: Try 10.04 or 11.04. | 21:06 |
| gahlberg | I know, old cd only thing laying around | 21:06 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: so should the file be called evolution.desktop or just evolution? | 21:06 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ If you say 'ls' you should see a list of four files. | 21:06 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ What do you see? | 21:06 |
| MonkeyDust | gahlberg: download a more recent ubuntu version | 21:06 |
| Jordan_U | gahlberg: Can you burn another CD, or do you have a flash drive? | 21:06 |
| jonesst1 | qin: thanks a good doc | 21:06 |
| ilovebears | ijordan_u: you can also install ubuntu out of windows i think | 21:07 |
| gahlberg | Jordan_U anh MonkeyDust: let me check that. thx for support | 21:07 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: yeah, i have the files to view in nautilus too. The evolution.desktop that I created, gwibber and ubuntuone-control-panel. | 21:07 |
| jonesst1 | anybody got vmware's esxi vmtools to install on ubuntu? | 21:07 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Okay. Change the file called 'evolution.desktop' to just 'evolution' like you said. | 21:07 |
| gahlberg | Jordan_U anh MonkeyDust: I guess it was wishful thinking that 5.04 could do it | 21:07 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: done. now to the chmod! | 21:08 |
| omid | how to find hardware info in ubuntu ? for example how to find graphic card model? | 21:08 |
| MonkeyDust | omid: lspci | 21:08 |
| gahlberg | amazing to be 5.04 ubuntu again, btw | 21:08 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Can you say 'cat evolution' and tell me what it says? | 21:09 |
| omid | MonkeyDust i must enter it in terminal ? or its an application? | 21:09 |
| ilovebears | Anyone knows how to create a custom menu entry in Nautilus, that has a chackbox? | 21:09 |
| arand | omid: terminal | 21:09 |
| qin | omid: lspci, lshw, hwinfo | 21:09 |
| MonkeyDust | omid: in a temrinal | 21:09 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: didn't say anything.. Weird! No output what so ever. | 21:09 |
| ilovebears | checkbox' | 21:09 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Okay, you need to edit the file. | 21:10 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: I created a "emty file" and just named it evolution. | 21:10 |
| phox_ | matgirl: oh ok. | 21:10 |
| hetz | Hi people. I'm trying to upgrade ubuntu karmic with PHP-5.3 packages from dotdeb, but even that I added 2 lines and did "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" - it ignores the php 5.3 | 21:10 |
| omid | is it possible to make a ubuntu usb with my favorite software and packages? | 21:10 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ I need you to open it with whatever the 'notepad' program is in gnome. | 21:10 |
| MonkeyDust | omid: advanced users can do it yes | 21:10 |
| phox_ | yep | 21:11 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ It's probably called gwrite or something. What did you open it with? | 21:11 |
| omid | i'm a newbie. | 21:11 |
| arand | !remaster > omid | 21:11 |
| ubottu | omid, please see my private message | 21:11 |
| Joshua__ | I am trying to configure postfix to send outgoing mail from ubuntu to my exchange server on the LAN, can anyone help with that? | 21:11 |
| ilovebears | depends on your problem | 21:11 |
| ilovebears | joshua__:i have some experience with postfix | 21:12 |
| jonesst1 | joshua a smarthost setting | 21:12 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: yeah something like it. Just said text editor, think it gedit. Does it matter? :P | 21:12 |
| omid | thank you guys . i'll try | 21:13 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ gedit is good. I'm just trying to make sure you're not making an .rtf or .ods or something. | 21:13 |
| arand | hetz: it may very well be that the packages are only for supported versions of ubuntu (kermic is EOL) | 21:13 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Okay, put this line in the file: | 21:13 |
| guntbert | Joshua__: that question is better served in #ubuntu-server | 21:13 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ /usr/share/applications/evolution.desktop | 21:13 |
| jagas | can anyone tell me which ati drivers are better? | 21:14 |
| hetz | arand: dozen of pages on the web disagree with you about this (not about EOL) | 21:14 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: done. Ill reboot and see what happens. | 21:14 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Save the file. Then in the terminal 'cat evolution' and tell me the output. | 21:14 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Wait! Did you chmod 644 the file? | 21:14 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: nope! haha, good thing i didnt exit xchat. | 21:14 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Did you make it owned by root? | 21:14 |
| ilovebears | jagas: the proprietary drivers have the best preformance, if thats what your asking | 21:14 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ You need to | 21:14 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ sudo chown root:root evolution | 21:15 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ sudo chmod 644 evolution | 21:15 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: cat evolution gives me "/usr/share/applications/evolution.desktop". | 21:15 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Then if you want to be safe, you can go back over everything with me. | 21:15 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Looks good. | 21:15 |
| jagas | ilovebears: im having some problems with compiz using those drivers, it makes wobbly windows lag | 21:15 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ What does 'pwd' say? | 21:15 |
| fwaokda | I'm trying to upload my code to googlecode through ubuntu and subversion... anyone think they can help me I cant seem to figure it out | 21:15 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: /usr/share/applications/evolution.desktop. I'm in the right dir :) | 21:16 |
| milica | @jagas it depends of a card i gues... try 011.022.007.004.034152 it works great! | 21:16 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ No you're not. You should be in /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications right? | 21:16 |
| ilovebears | jagas: are you sure the drivers are enabled? | 21:16 |
| econdudeawesome | guntbert: I've tried both ways now (sudo update-grub and sudo update-grub2), anyt houghts why it wouldnt do this permanently? | 21:16 |
| eiriksvin | hello, I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 in classic and my wifi connection is showing Link Quality=97/100 Signal level=43/100 Noise level=0/100 in the top bar its showing Link Quality and not showing Signal Level, how do I get it to show Signal Level? | 21:17 |
| jagas | milica: can u give me a link to download that? | 21:17 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: yes, i should. pwg gives "/usr/share/indicators/messages/applications", what should it give? Isnt it right? | 21:17 |
| jagas | ilovebears: yes it is enabled | 21:17 |
| hetz | in terms of compatibility - which is more close to karmic: Lenny or Squeeze? | 21:17 |
| guntbert | econdudeawesome: the latter is wrong - that makes the step 1->2, if it works from the grub menu then you might have made an error regarding the config file | 21:18 |
| milica | @jagas: wait a moment , if i can find.. | 21:18 |
| MonkeyDust | hetz: lenny and squeeze are debian, not ubuntu | 21:18 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Okay. I thought you meant "I'm in the right dir: /usr/share/applications..." | 21:18 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ I guess everything's good. | 21:18 |
| econdudeawesome | guntbert: so at the grub menu, what exactly am I looking for? vmlinuz or initrd? | 21:18 |
| phox_ | yep. reboot on that, brb | 21:18 |
| eiriksvin | is there a wifi meter I can download that will show Signal Quality and not Link Quality? | 21:18 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ You want a file called /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications | 21:18 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ containing just one line: | 21:18 |
| eiriksvin | in a % | 21:18 |

| Darkenvy | where can I go for VMware trouble? | 21:20 |
| jagas | milica: so that is the open source driver.. | 21:20 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ And when you say 'ls -l' you should get four files that are all | 21:20 |
| MonkeyDust | eiriksvin: that's the one | 21:20 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root | 21:20 |
| ilovebears | jagas: did you install the driver using this gui thing(I think its named jockey) | 21:20 |
| milica | @jagas: i really want to help you .. | 21:21 |
| Darkenvy | vmware works fine up to the point of ANY video playing of any kind or program. Crashes the VMware environment's display driver | 21:21 |
| Darkenvy | namely windows | 21:21 |
| MonkeyDust | Darkenvy: try virtual box | 21:21 |
| Darkenvy | nope | 21:21 |
| Darkenvy | VMware all the way | 21:21 |
| Darkenvy | I tried virtual box I hated it so much | 21:21 |
| Sl4sh3r | Darkenvy, I can run XBMC perfectly on virtualbox | 21:21 |
| jagas | ilovebears: i used additional drivers | 21:21 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: gah.. i cant open the file. This makes me tired. Could i not name it.desktop at first and edit the content then rename it? | 21:22 |
| Darkenvy | Im not running XMBC | 21:22 |

| Darkenvy | Im running microsoft silverlight with the occasional VLC player (but rarely) | 21:22 |

| Darkenvy | its for netflix online | 21:22 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ What do you mean 'open the file'? Like double-click it? | 21:22 |
| ilovebears | jagas: I would try to reinstall the driver using jockey | 21:22 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ Yes, if that's the way you can edit it, go for it. | 21:22 |
| jagas | milica: at the moment i have the proprietary installed using additional drivers | 21:23 |
| milica | @jagas: ITry the official Catalyst drivers, they really pleased me , and supprised! | 21:23 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ But when you're done, make sure you change the ownership, groupship and permissions. | 21:23 |
| vanguard | I logged into Unity and now my Gnome 2.x looks like Win98 | 21:23 |
| phox_ | mathgirl: ok, give me a sec | 21:23 |
| mathgirl | @phox_ and name. | 21:23 |
| vanguard | what can I do? | 21:23 |
| adac | two questions about unity: is it possible to run gnome apps in the upper bar? and second: how do you switch between aplications? If i hava pidgin chat window open i do not see it anyewhere and i need to use alt + tab which is annoying | 21:23 |
| MonkeyDust | vanguard: unity is the bug, gnome is the solution | 21:23 |
| jagas | ilovebears: dont really know how to do that | 21:23 |
| Sl4sh3r | Darkenvy, do you really need to watch netflix on this specific software for windows? Im pretty sure xbmc for linux can handle netflix too | 21:23 |
| ilovebears | milica + jagas: i think jockey installs the catalyst drivers | 21:23 |
| vanguard | MonkeyDust: well, but Unity set something so that my regular gnome is messed up | 21:24 |
| Darkenvy | sl4sh3r you dont know your stuff do you? | 21:24 |
| jagas | ilovebears + milica: i think i have that installed in the synaptic package | 21:24 |
| milica | @jagas: i think you would be better with direct download straight from a site, but first have to remove everything thar jockey installed | 21:24 |
| Darkenvy | I have tried everyhting from boxee to XMBC and nothing plays it because netflix runs silverlight which is proprietary | 21:24 |
| ilovebears | jagas: oh my bad.... what I mean are additional drivers.... | 21:24 |
| MonkeyDust | vanguard: copy paste this in a terminal: gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/compiz && compiz --replace | 21:24 |

| mathgirl | I suspect. apt-get only gets me 1.8.3 and I want 1.8.4 (or 1.8.5 if life's great...) | 21:29 |
| jagas | milica + ilovebears: so ill deactivate the old drivers and run the new ones you gave me, thanks a lot for your help guys | 21:29 |
| ilovebears | jagas: i think 55-60C is okay.... | 21:30 |

| Darkenvy | on 10.04 same settup. worked perfect | 21:30 |
| Sl4sh3r | Darkenvy, xinerama disables hardware acceleration | 21:30 |
| jonesst1 | mathgirl maybe a devel tree, but that can get dodgy | 21:30 |
| Darkenvy | nope | 21:30 |
| Darkenvy | I mean yea | 21:30 |
| Darkenvy | but not an option | 21:30 |
| guntbert | econdudeawesome: try it in the menu first, to get a feeling (you can remove the "quiet" there too | 21:30 |
| milica | @jagas: Any time :) | 21:30 |
| jagas | ilovebears: well the thing is the win7 run with 45-48 | 21:30 |
| mathgirl | Current apt version crashes for a reason that was fixed in latest actual version. | 21:30 |
| Darkenvy | I got VMware to be perfect on 10.04. im on 10.10 now same setup and everything | 21:30 |
| Darkenvy | clean install BTW not upgrade | 21:30 |
| === jthomas_ is now known as TheDracle | ||
| Sl4sh3r | Darkenvy, you mean that back in 10.04 everything was working fine even with xinerama ON? | 21:31 |
| mathgirl | jonesst1 How do I use a development tree? | 21:31 |
| ilovebears | jagas: if you deactivate all that fancy 3d-desktop-animation stuff it should be the same | 21:31 |
| econdudeawesome | guntbert: text is there, but it still boots to gdm | 21:31 |
| mathgirl | KM0201, I need it because the current apt version doesn't work for a reason that is fixed in the latest actual version. | 21:32 |
| guntbert | econdudeawesome: let me try | 21:32 |
| KM0201 | hmm | 21:32 |
| Darkenvy | sl4sh3r yes that is correct | 21:33 |
| Sl4sh3r | Darkenvy, are you installing the same vmware version on the 10.10? | 21:33 |
| Darkenvy | yes sir I am | 21:33 |
| jonesst1 | mathgirl in debian i'd go look at the tree and if I had waht I wanted add it to /etc/apt/sources.list, I assume ubuntu is similar | 21:33 |
| Darkenvy | wait actually no I am not sure I was handed the disk | 21:33 |
| Darkenvy | but it would not be older | 21:33 |
| mathgirl | jonesst1, where is the tree I should look at? | 21:33 |
| Darkenvy | we got VMware for the first time in '10 so it cant be older | 21:33 |
| Darkenvy | think its the version? | 21:34 |
| guntbert | econdudeawesome: here it works: in the grub menu you move the cursor to the end of the line where my "arrow" points, remove "quiet" and write "text" (without quotes), then press ctrl+x to boot | 21:34 |
| === debian2 is now known as maN45 | ||
| Sl4sh3r | Darkenvy, well, im not sure honestly. But since you have such a uncommon display setting, I doubt that developers do really care if the software is gonna work on it so I think trying to install the same version is a valid try. | 21:35 |
| Darkenvy | okay | 21:36 |
| Nitration | for some reason my comp is not recognizing new ipods... any help would be greatly appreciated! | 21:36 |
| Darkenvy | also for future reference, there should be a codeword for 'I dont want an alternative I need the problem solved' lol | 21:36 |
| === guido is now known as Guest7842 | ||
| === skrewler_ is now known as skrewler | ||
| econdudeawesome | guntbert: so "quiet" overpowers "text" then | 21:37 |
| Sl4sh3r | Darkenvy, lol I tried to give an alterative because I didn't understand that netflix was only an example | 21:37 |
| MonkeyDust | Darkenvy: some problems do not have a solution (yet) | 21:37 |

| Nitration | anyone know how to get a new ipod to show up on ubuntu | 21:39 |
| econdudeawesome | guntbert: took out quiet and splash: still no dice, boots to gdm | 21:39 |
| mathgirl | jonesst1, Okay, I'll search their site for the development tree for my program. I don't do anything special with apt ever, so exotic repositories etc. are difficult for me. | 21:40 |
| Sl4sh3r | Darkenvy, by the way. I know that there is a guide on the ubuntuforums that shows a way to enable hardware acceleration on xinerama setups. But it needs a lot of hacking and patchs. | 21:40 |
| MonkeyDust | Nitration: http://club.myce.com/f3/full-circle-ubuntu-issue-11-27-march-2008-a-242114/ | 21:40 |
| jonesst1 | it would be just adding a line or to | 21:40 |
| jonesst1 | it might be in sources.list already | 21:41 |
| guntbert | econdudeawesome: even *with* text? | 21:41 |
| econdudeawesome | guntbert: correct | 21:41 |
| Nitration | monkey what is that | 21:42 |
| Darkenvy | sl4sh3r really? I am interested | 21:42 |
| mathgirl | jonesst1, I don't exactly know what's going on. As I say, I don't use exotic repositories or anything. | 21:42 |

| jagas | ilovebears: i just installed the proprietary drivers from amd site and i cant tell that my laptop is running hot | 21:42 |

| mathgirl | Okay, hold on. | 21:43 |
| cgroza | Hello | 21:43 |
| jagas | ilovebears: well is that a good thing i mean.. it is really hot underneath it | 21:43 |
| jonesst1 | mathgirl i'd try and download the deb and install it | 21:44 |
| MonkeyDust | Darkenvy: your problem is too uncommon, few people heve encounterd it, if you find a solution or workaround, that makes you the expert :) | 21:44 |
| jagas | ilovebears: and i have a laptopcoolertoo so.. | 21:44 |
| ilovebears | jagas: oh, i thought it is NOT running hot | 21:44 |
| guntbert | econdudeawesome: when your screen looks like http://imagebin.org/156516 ? | 21:44 |

| jonesst1 | mathgirl, i dont know on that.....if the version numbers are correct I assume yes.... | 21:45 |
| econdudeawesome | guntbert: I change the text (delete teh options splash and quiet, make sure text is there) then press f10 or ctrl+x | 21:45 |

| srm | hi folks. running natty on a macbook pro (4,1) with the nvidia-proprietary drivers. When enabling twinview, everything looks good. When starting totem, twinview breaks. i.e., the external monitor still displays a picture, but I can't move the mouse form the primary to the secondary display. any ideas on how to hunt this down? | 21:45 |
| mathgirl | Well, I'll give it a shot and see what happens... | 21:45 |
| srm | the same happens when starting games like SC2 via wine | 21:46 |
| srm | playing videos via gmplayer works fine | 21:46 |

| clusterfusk | I have a samba share set up on a Natty box. Other Natty users on the network can see it, but not windows xp. Is there a special setup to make it visible to xp users? | 21:47 |
| guntbert | econdudeawesome: strange - are you certain you are editing the correct line? The one starting with linux ? (it will wrap into the next screen line but still is one line in an editor) | 21:48 |
| srm | should i report a bug about this? and if so, where? | 21:48 |
| jagas | ilovebears: ill leave my laptop on suspend for a while and ill come back when everthing cools down and then ill see if it gets hot too fast | 21:48 |
| multipass | is fbpanel the same as trayer? | 21:48 |
| econdudeawesome | guntbert: yes. Not sure why it's not working--it worked fine until I added xfce, then stopped working | 21:48 |
| ilovebears | jagas: is the problem with the wobbely windows fixed? | 21:48 |
| ilovebears | jagas: dont suspend it; shut it down | 21:49 |
| jagas | ilovebears: well when i restart everything goes back to normal, the problem shows up after a couple of hours using the pc | 21:49 |
| MonkeyDust | suspend works just fine for me | 21:50 |

| multipass | is fbpanel the same package as trayer? | 21:52 |
| Sl4sh3r | When I turn on the box, I dont have tty login access to my ubuntu 10.04. I have window manager disabled by default. | 21:52 |

| Sl4sh3r | box I mean the computer | 21:53 |
| guntbert | econdudeawesome: I cannot imagine what xfce should have to do with it, but well..., sorry for mot being able to help | 21:53 |
| econdudeawesome | Sl4sh3r: hold down shift to bring up the grub menu, then choose Ubuntu .... (Recovery Mode). Is this something you want to fix, I reckon? | 21:53 |

| srm | lynx``, JACK is an Audio system. IIRC, you can setup loops to record internal played back audio | 22:15 |
| econdudeawesome | lynx``: so let me get this straight: you want to record what the speakers play in a feedback loop? JACK sounds like what your need | 22:16 |
| lynx`` | No | 22:16 |
| lynx`` | I want to record what the speakers play without the feedback | 22:16 |

| cgroza | Hello | 23:26 |
| maxjhh_ | f | 23:26 |
| Alliha | I have tried to upgrade it, but it fails at reading the files | 23:26 |
| Omega | qin: IdleOne was already here, anyway this is offtopic. | 23:26 |
| === clusterfusk1 is now known as clusterfusk | ||
| Ddpbf | Alliha: sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -vf | 23:26 |
| qin | Omega: Well silly flooding is pointless | 23:26 |
| Ddpbf | and sudo apt-get update | 23:27 |
| Omega | qin: ot | 23:27 |
| Alliha | apt-get update doesn't work... | 23:27 |
| maxjhh__ | f | 23:27 |
| Alliha | But I can try the other command | 23:27 |

| haavaros | Hi! With 10.10 I used env lang=nb_no or something to start a terminal session with an ISO char coding. Now it doesn't work. What's new? | 23:27 |
| maxjhh__ | floodd | 23:27 |
| Ddpbf | Alliha: after first apt-get should be fixed | 23:27 |
| maxjhh__ | floodd | 23:27 |
| niko | maxjhh__: could you stop that | 23:27 |
| qin | IdleOne: thx ;) | 23:28 |

| computa_mike | trying to create a special folder - I'm determining a special folder to be one like Music, Videos etc (with a special icon) | 23:28 |
| clusterfusk | Somebody please walk me through creating a windows share? It seems straightforward, but I'm failing hard. | 23:28 |
| Omega | clusterfusk: install samba | 23:29 |
| cgroza | computa_mike, nautilus allows you to put tags on your files. It is in the proprietes menu. | 23:29 |
| Omega | !samba | clusterfusk | 23:29 |
| ubottu | clusterfusk: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 23:29 |
| Alliha | Ddpbf: it seems as though it works! I'm updating apt-get as we speak | 23:29 |
| Ddpbf | :) | 23:29 |
| Alliha | wait | 23:29 |
| computa_mike | ..but I wanted to do it via a script, so I could package it up... | 23:29 |
| qin | computa_mike: You can change icon of any folder, right-click, properities, click on icon | 23:29 |
| Alliha | "something wicked happened" | 23:30 |
| cgroza | Has anyone notice that the updates debit is kind of low for a new release such as natty? | 23:30 |
| Alliha | Meh | 23:30 |
| Alliha | The update failed, but the package manager itself seems to work, so I'm content | 23:30 |
| Ddpbf | Alliha: paste output on paste.ubuntu.com | 23:30 |
| YankDownUnder | The only thing I notice about Natty is that they're trying to force a mobile phone interface on what used to be a great distribution. | 23:31 |
| Dexter | what is compiz for? | 23:31 |
| Alliha | Uhhh ok? | 23:31 |
| cgroza | YankDownUnder, I like natty, I enjoy it more than other distors | 23:31 |
| erichammond | Using Natty I've turned off "Window Decoration" as I use key combinations to do window moving/resizing/close/etc. I'm almost completely happy, but would like to have a very thin border around my windows (juts no title bars). Is there a decoration option/theme for this? | 23:31 |
| cgroza | or releases | 23:31 |
| qin | Dexter: In short to dispaly windows | 23:32 |
| haavaros | Can't get the terminal clock to make a sound. What do I do? | 23:32 |
| qin | haavaros: How did you try? | 23:32 |
| Dexter | qin, so it has to do with the graphics imprecissions I get when I play a game on full screen | 23:33 |
| qin | Dexter: rather driver itself, not compiz | 23:33 |
| haavaros | qin: Doing stuff that used to make sounds in 10.04. Like backspacing when the prompt is empty, entering /beep in irssi | 23:33 |
| Alliha | Ddpbf: http://paste.ubuntu.com/617119/ like this? | 23:34 |
| Alliha | Also, it's in norwegian :P | 23:34 |
| computa_mike | guys - I'll try again tommorrow, or over the weekend... I didn;t realise the time here... | 23:34 |
| haavaros | qin: THe terminal bell option is ticked in profile settings | 23:34 |
| computa_mike | Gnight all# | 23:34 |
| Ddpbf | Alliha: yes. btw wich language this is :) | 23:35 |
| qin | haavaros: um, I have said bye to gnome-terminal while ago, but recall "audiable bell" option. | 23:35 |
| Alliha | Ddpbf: it's norwegian :P Want a translate? | 23:36 |
| Ddpbf | Alliha: It looked like scandinavian, Nynorsk or Bookmal? | 23:37 |
| Alliha | nynorsk | 23:37 |
| Alliha | I'm amazed by your lingual skills^^ | 23:37 |
| Ddpbf | Alliha: try different mirror | 23:39 |
| Ddpbf | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1530645 | 23:39 |
| Alliha | That sounds reasonable, but- oh would you look at that | 23:40 |
| hemika | MonkeyDust, Found any solution? | 23:40 |
| Ddpbf | something is wrong with your current | 23:40 |
| clusterfusk | Somebody please help me figure out why my samba share isn't working after following the instructions in the wiki. | 23:40 |
| justink | MonkeyDust: there might have been a misconception, i am actually in Ubuntu Classic theme right now, and trying to log in with Ubuntu theme doesnt really let me do anything other than move my mouse around and watch my desktop files flicker and shift around on and off the screen | 23:41 |
| Alliha | wait what? That still doesn't explain how I change a mirror .P | 23:41 |
| Alliha | :P | 23:41 |
| Alliha | Sorry for being such a noob, btw | 23:41 |
| Dexter | what does this mean? dpkg: error processing /home/dexter/Downloads/compiz-switch_0.4.3~ubuntu-1_all.deb (--install): | 23:41 |
| Dexter | parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/control' near line 8 package 'compiz-switch': | 23:41 |
| Dexter | junk after word in `priority' field | 23:41 |
| Ddpbf | Alliha: go in Sowtware sources | 23:41 |
| Ddpbf | uf just to remember i am on arch with kde now | 23:42 |
| Ddpbf | :> | 23:42 |
| MrPopinjay | fancypants | 23:42 |
| Ddpbf | Alliha: open synaptic | 23:43 |
| Alliha | Yea okay | 23:43 |
| Ddpbf | settings | 23:44 |
| Ddpbf | repositories | 23:44 |
| Alliha | Yea | 23:44 |
| hemika | MonkeyDust, There? | 23:44 |
| Alliha | :D | 23:44 |
| Alliha | Yay | 23:44 |
| === scott_ is now known as Guest38443 | ||
| Alliha | Uhhh | 23:46 |
| Alliha | http://paste.ubuntu.com/617122/ | 23:46 |
| justink | Alliha you probably have something else open that is holding the lock | 23:47 |
| Alliha | Whoopsies | 23:48 |
| Ddpbf | Alliha: yes, it is another package-manager runnig | 23:48 |
| Alliha | Perhaps I should learn to read the error before I complain | 23:48 |
| justink | yea maybe try closing some stuff that you have authenticated (probably some other administrative thing) that should remove the lock | 23:49 |
| Alliha | OMFGYAY | 23:49 |
| Alliha | It worked, Ddpbf! :D Thanks a lot! | 23:49 |
| Ddpbf | it is usually messed up dns server | 23:49 |
| Alliha | As long as it works^^ | 23:50 |
| ikonia | Alliha: controll the language please | 23:50 |
| Alliha | what? | 23:50 |
| ikonia | Alliha: OMFGYAY | 23:50 |
| Alliha | oh. didn't know that could be interpreted as offensive | 23:51 |
| ikonia | think about what it means. | 23:51 |
| Alliha | I know. but still. | 23:51 |
| Alliha | Sorry | 23:51 |
| Alliha | But thanks a lot for your help! See you next time I manage to ruin my ubuntu!^^ | 23:52 |
