| Juest | hi again | 00:00 |
| heffay | port 139 is open on the host | 00:00 |
| Juest | now gnome-session says | 00:01 |
| Juest | no valid session found | 00:01 |
| Juest | why??? | 00:01 |
| ikonia | Juest: are you running it as root ? | 00:01 |
| Juest | no, that matters? | 00:01 |
| iain80 | keepass2 is cross-platform now too. i'm paralysed by choice! | 00:01 |
| ikonia | Juest: yes, it does matter | 00:01 |
| Juest | ah | 00:02 |
| heffay | iknoia, is there an easier way to troubleshoot this? this is a pretty basic function... | 00:02 |
| Juest | i running it as root, going to try using it as normal user | 00:02 |
| ikonia | heffay: what tests have you done so far ? | 00:02 |
| heffay | does ubuntu have its own built in firewall that i might need to open a port on? | 00:02 |
| ikonia | heffay: it does, ufw - however what have you done to test this as I suggested | 00:02 |
| heffay | port scanned the host ad port 139 is open | 00:03 |
| ikonia | heffay: telnet to the port, see if a connection is made, or an error mesage comes back (send nonsense to it) | 00:04 |

| tanath | anyone know how to disable nautilus? i changed my file manager to thunar and turned off nautilus' desktop draw, but it still restarts whenever i quit it | 00:43 |
| EtherNet | quant, I'll check indicator's stuff | 00:43 |
| EtherNet | quant, it's quite sad I used to love those things | 00:43 |
| KM0201 | EtherNet: its not just ubuntu unity that ditched them though... Gnome3 doesn't have them either.. | 00:43 |
| heffay | i checked the forums and the best i could come up with was the client lanman auth | 00:43 |
| heffay | that didnt work for me though | 00:43 |
| bonhoffer | hmm . . . i get adduser: The group `passenger' already exists. | 00:43 |
| quant | EtherNet: just search for indicator packages... for example the weather is there (but not as good as before, for me) | 00:43 |
| EtherNet | KM0201, so this is a gnome's decision more than Ubuntu | 00:44 |
| bonhoffer | the group might, but the user doesn't exist | 00:44 |
| KM0201 | EtherNet: yup. | 00:44 |
| th0r | bonhoffer: that is a group, the password belongs to the user | 00:44 |
| phrostbite | I just installed the new Ubuntu and I have these weird lines across everything like its almost blurry. | 00:44 |

| bonhoffer | th0r: so i want to create a user named passenger to deploy apps on my server | 00:44 |
| th0r | bonhoffer: I have no idea what you are trying to accomplish, but you can't change the password because it is a group and not a user | 00:45 |
| quant | KM0201: true, but it's not in the Ubuntu repos | 00:45 |
| heffay | wait a min. now smbtree says error nt_status_unsuccessful | 00:45 |
| phrostbite | I just installed the new Ubuntu and I have these weird lines across everything like its almost blurry. Is it a graphics card problem? I looked for drivers and it said there are no proprietary drivers. What is it? | 00:45 |

| bonhoffer | i'm not trying to change the password | 00:45 |
| EtherNet | quant, what about screenlets? is that still an option? | 00:45 |
| KM0201 | quant: should be a ppa available for it... and it works fine | 00:46 |
| th0r | bonhoffer: didn't this start with a question about 'sudo passwd passenger'? | 00:46 |
| quant | EtherNet: unsure about that, probably not (just guessing) | 00:46 |
| ubuntuguy | Do I need ot install something for hotmail so I check my mail from desktop? | 00:46 |
| bonhoffer | yes -- originally, but then i found out the user didn't exist | 00:46 |
| EtherNet | quant, it worths a try, tho | 00:46 |
| bonhoffer | so i want to add him | 00:46 |
| quant | ubuntuguy: browser? :) | 00:46 |
| EtherNet | quant, pretty huge/weight tho.... it eats up the whole processor | 00:46 |
| th0r | bonhoffer: then use either adduser or useradd, or do it through the gui | 00:46 |
| bonhoffer | i've got passenger:x:1002:www-data in my /etc/group | 00:47 |
| ubuntuguy | Yeah, but sometimes I want to know when I get mail | 00:47 |
| ubuntuguy | I not one to check email every hour | 00:47 |
| th0r | bonhoffer: that is a group | 00:47 |
| bonhoffer | th0r: those won't work because the group exists | 00:47 |
| ubuntuguy | Bwcuase my friend emails me when minecraft server goes online | 00:47 |
| KM0201 | ubuntuguy: you can adjust how frequently it checks | 00:47 |
| bonhoffer | so i need to add a user the same name as an existing group | 00:47 |
| phrostbite | I just installed the new Ubuntu and I have these weird lines across everything like its almost blurry. Is it a graphics card problem? I looked for drivers and it said there are no proprietary drivers. What is it? | 00:47 |
| th0r | bonhoffer: if you defined the group by mistake remove it first, then add the user | 00:47 |
| ubuntuguy | But how do I set it up, it won't work | 00:47 |
| invisitor | does anyone know how to fix or test an audio problem on ubuntu ?? | 00:47 |
| bonhoffer | i don't mind the group existing, is it a problem to have a user and group of the same name | 00:48 |
| tanath | Logan_, thanks but i don't like doing things that leave clutter which i know i'll forget about. and i've already disabled nautilus drawing desktop and set thunar default | 00:48 |
| th0r | bonhoffer: bonhoffer: th0r: those won't work because the group exists | 00:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | bonhoffer, by default when you create a user, it will also create a group with the same name | 00:48 |

| bonhoffer | just to be clear: passenger:x:1002:www-data <-- what does that mean? the group passenger is a subset of the www-data group? | 00:54 |
| th0r | cypha: that should be ps ax | grep sshd | 00:54 |
| ZykoticK9 | bonhoffer, www-data is a member of the passenger group | 00:55 |
| phrostbite | What is the app called for third party things like mp3's and flash and java? | 00:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | bonhoffer, unix doesn't allow groups inside other groups | 00:55 |
| bonhoffer | ZykoticK9: thanks! | 00:55 |

| ZykoticK9 | phrostbite, ubuntu-restricted-extras | 00:55 |
| bonhoffer | ZykoticK9: so www-data is a user? | 00:55 |
| bonhoffer | yep | 00:55 |

| * Guest27404 lurks | 00:57 | |
| cypha | th0r, how do I stop the server? and how do I start the server again? | 00:57 |
| phrostbite | Hey ZykoticK9 I just did a fresh install of Ubuntu 11.04 and I have what looks like 1x1 pixel dots all over each window and the menu bar. I saw some google suggestions but it was for people running virtual machines. DO you know how I would fix it? | 00:57 |
| th0r | cypha: I think 'service sshd stop' will stop it ... service sshd restart will stop and start | 00:58 |
| Guest27404 | O:-) | 00:58 |
| th0r | cypha: that needs to be a sudo command | 00:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | phrostbite, sorry I have no idea - i remember a 1 pixel issue with 10.04 and kill nautilus corrected it - you could try that... | 00:58 |
| _Neytiri_ | odin44|away, its a usb keybord | 00:59 |
| babalu | is there an option to multi stream a device in pulse audio? | 00:59 |
| phrostbite | How do you kill nautilus? Does that have adverse effects? ZykoticK9 | 00:59 |
| _Neytiri_ | i am trying ot see if its a saftware issue or a dieing mobo | 00:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | phrostbite, "killall nautilus" it should automatically restart - hopefully without the 1 pixel issue ;) | 00:59 |
| cypha | th0r, easy enough, thanks | 00:59 |
| Lenin_Cat | When I switch to emarald as my window decarator, the window decarator disappaers | 01:00 |
| phrostbite | Ok thanks :). I will try that after I get done doing the install for the ubuntu-restriced-extras | 01:00 |
| tomato | http://4chon.net/new/ | 01:00 |
| tanath | can anyone help me disable nautilus without uninstalling it? switched file managers but it keeps running even after i kill it | 01:00 |
| tanath | something keeps starting it up | 01:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | tanath, if you're using gnome, I'm really not surprised. Best of luck. | 01:01 |
| aguitel_ | anyone know how to make this usb wireless card to work:Bus 001 Device 004: ID 1737:0077 Linksys ? | 01:01 |
| gskellig | I'm using two monitors, how do I get the monitor on the right to be the default? (the one that unity shows up on, and icons/etc) | 01:01 |
| tanath | ZykoticK9, yes | 01:01 |
| xangua | Lenin_Cat: emerald is an abandoned proyect and is not supported, but there is a post on omg!ubuntu! blog that tells how to use emerald with unity | 01:01 |
| tanath | ZykoticK9, heh | 01:01 |
| th0r | tanath: I think nautilus is more than a file manager. While you can replace the filemanager portion with thunar, I think nautilus is still a necessary part of gnome | 01:01 |
| helluvaCSmajor | i upgraded to ubuntu 11.04 and i cannot get any music players to work | 01:01 |
| ubuntu__1 | hey guys. what's the closed source ati driver called? | 01:02 |
| Lenin_Cat | xangua, why would I be usuing unity | 01:02 |
| bonhoffer | th0r: ZykoticK9 : a problem remains, i just created .ssh in ~ for passenger, look at the permissions: drwx------ 2 108 passenger 4096 Apr 9 2009 .ssh | 01:02 |
| Lenin_Cat | it sucks. | 01:02 |
| tanath | th0r, how necessary? i turned off desktop drawing... | 01:02 |
| quant | ubuntu__1: fglrx | 01:02 |
| phrostbite | so ZykoticK9 do I type that in the terminal? | 01:02 |
| bonhoffer | see the owner is 108 | 01:02 |
| gskellig | I'm using two monitors, how do I get the monitor on the right to be the default? (the one that unity shows up on, and icons/etc) | 01:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | phrostbite, yup | 01:02 |
| zelozelos | clear | 01:02 |
| ubuntu__1 | quant: thanks! knew it was something like that, couldn't get them in the right order though :) | 01:02 |
| bonhoffer | ZykoticK9: so my passenger user can't cd to a directory he makes | 01:02 |
| th0r | tanath: I don't use gnome, for that reason among others <smile> so I can't say for sure | 01:02 |
| tanath | th0r, what do you use? | 01:03 |
| quant | ubuntu__1: np... maybe there's something more, but the string "fglrx" is definitely in it ;-) | 01:03 |
| phrostbite | ZykoticK9: Nothing happens when I type that in. | 01:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | bonhoffer, i'm guessing the PID of your group doesn't match passenger for some reason? | 01:03 |
| th0r | tanath: I run xubuntu | 01:03 |
| zelozelos | mike u still here? | 01:03 |
| tanath | th0r, i haven't used xfce in years. didn't much care for it | 01:03 |
| ubuntu__1 | quant: i'm trying to uninstall it on a broken ubuntu 11.04 install. hopefully apt-get remove fglrx | 01:03 |
| ubuntu__1 | er... didn't expect that to past | 01:03 |
| tanath | th0r, perhaps it's improved though... :P | 01:03 |
| bonhoffer | ZykoticK9: so i did a chown -R for that directory | 01:03 |
| ubuntu__1 | hopefully remove fglrx* will work | 01:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | phrostbite, sorry - perhaps in Unity it doesn't apply. Good luck. | 01:03 |
| gskellig | can nobody hear me? | 01:03 |
| bigbang4u2 | i m getting this error after installing ubuntu 11.04 "It seems that you do not have the hardware required to run Unity. Please choose Ubuntu Classic at the login screen and you will be using the traditional environment" | 01:03 |
| ubuntu__1 | gskellig: no, sorry | 01:03 |
| bonhoffer | ZykoticK9: now it works | 01:04 |
| th0r | gskellig: have you said anything worth hearing? | 01:04 |
| tanath | th0r, nautilus uses too much memory. perhaps i should have another look at xfce? i don't want to lose certain things like applets i'm used to though | 01:04 |
| gskellig | I'm using two monitors, how do I get the monitor on the right to be the default? (the one that unity shows up on, and icons/etc) | 01:04 |
| MonkeyDust | gskellig: you ok mate? | 01:04 |
| gskellig | also randomly when i activate the vga monitor, the right half of my laptop screen is black, and nothing (except the mouse) is displayed on it | 01:04 |
| gskellig | like if i right click in a specific spot, half the menu is behind the black and half isn't, its very odd | 01:05 |
| th0r | tanath: there is (I think) a panel add-on that allows you to run applets | 01:05 |
| helluvaCSmajor | can someone help me get a music player working in ubuntu 11.04? | 01:05 |
| th0r | tanath: that is, to run gnome applets in xfce <smile> | 01:05 |
| tanath | th0r, hm. could you check? be good to know before i go through the effort of switching... | 01:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | gskellig, do you happen to be using Nvidia? as in nvidia-settings there is an option to set default monitor - for other gfx cards, I have no idea (also don't know how that applies to Unity) | 01:06 |
| th0r | tanath: just a sec | 01:06 |
| gskellig | using intel graphics card, but there is an nvidia card in my laptop | 01:06 |
| gskellig | it's disabled. | 01:06 |
| K-Rich | .me tests | 01:06 |

| tanath | meanwhile, would anyone happen to know how to thoroughly disable nautilus? | 01:07 |
| th0r | tanath: xfce4-xfapplet-plugin | 01:07 |
| tanath | th0r, thanks :) | 01:07 |
| bigbang4u2 | It seems that you do not have the hardware required to run Unity. Please choose Ubuntu Classic at the login screen and you will be using the traditional environment | 01:07 |
| tanath | bigbang4u2, sounds like you should choose classic... | 01:07 |
| tanath | bigbang4u2, did you read the error? | 01:08 |
| gskellig | ah forget it, just wont use dual monitors | 01:08 |
| tanath | er, warning/info? | 01:08 |
| bigbang4u2 | tanath, but why i cant use new ubuntu | 01:08 |
| lolmac | does xfce use GTK or Q? | 01:08 |
| quant | lolcat: gtk | 01:08 |
| th0r | lolmac: gtk mostly | 01:09 |
| Guest8093 | is there an easy way to uninstall desktop from server edition? or just as easy to reinstall software? | 01:09 |
| tanath | bigbang4u2, either your comp isn't powerful enough or you need to get proper graphics drivers installed first. either way you should use classic 'til you can find out and do so | 01:09 |
| lolmac | th0r: but it doesn't emulate gtk? | 01:09 |
| lolmac | uses it natively? | 01:09 |
| lolcat | quant: Huh? | 01:09 |
| Tros | How do I tell which video drivers I'm using? These seem snappy, but the monitor never goes into standby. | 01:09 |
| bigbang4u2 | tanath, i have 1 gb graphics card from nvidea kindly tell me what drivers i need to install | 01:09 |
| tanath | bigbang4u2, are you in classic (gnome) now? | 01:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | Tros, have a look at your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file, or "lspci -vnvn" and find the VGA section and kernel driver in use. | 01:10 |
| bigbang4u2 | tanath, yes | 01:10 |
| tanath | bigbang4u2, System > Admin > Hardware drivers. see if it finds drivers you should install | 01:10 |
| tanath | bigbang4u2, will give a recommended version | 01:11 |
| tomato | http://4chon.net/new/ | 01:11 |
| helluvaCSmajor | when someone gets a chance, i need help with music players or audio settings | 01:11 |
| Tros | ZykoticK9: Mucho thanks. | 01:11 |
| mjdvl420 | Jello | 01:11 |
| tanath | bigbang4u2, if not, it's possible your card is too new to have proper support yet. might have to wait | 01:12 |
| xangua | !someone | helluvaCSmajor | 01:12 |
| ubottu | helluvaCSmajor: 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. | 01:12 |
| tanath | bigbang4u2, if it doesn't recommend a driver for you, or says you're already using it, google info about ubuntu/linux drivers for your card | 01:13 |
| helluvaCSmajor | does anybody know how to get a music player working correctly in ubuntu 11.04 after upgrading? | 01:14 |
| bigbang4u2 | tanath, i clicked on additional drivers in admin, then it says my nvidia accelerated graphics driver is activated but not currently in use, how to make it in use | 01:14 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, sound muted? :P | 01:14 |
| helluvaCSmajor | no | 01:14 |
| lucas-arg | i was having ramdom kernel panics while booting with a desktop amd 64bits kernel... ive installed server kernel... whats the difference? | 01:14 |
| helluvaCSmajor | each music player i have tried has different problems, mostly based around acting like music tracks are 1 second long | 01:15 |
| tanath | bigbang4u2, is this a new install? might need a reboot... | 01:15 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, try running one from terminal and play something and look at terminal for output. should give useful error info | 01:15 |
| phrostbite | grr | 01:15 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, if no error, then the player is fine, it's something else, like sound driver or output selection. have a sound card? maybe it's sending to onboard for instance. check sound properties | 01:16 |
| helluvaCSmajor | tanath, sounds like a good idea, which music player should i focus on debugging that is simple but will allow me to create playlists and sync playlists to an android phone? | 01:17 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, actually, the output thing makes most sense if it's all players. check in sys>admin for sound. try different device | 01:18 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, not aware of a player that won't do playlists, but not sure about android synching. banshee might | 01:18 |
| bigbang4u2 | tanath, i rebooted my pc but it still says driver is active but not in use | 01:19 |
| helluvaCSmajor | i found system > preferences > sound, but i am not sure what to change | 01:19 |
| tomato | http://4chon.net/new/ | 01:21 |

| tanath | bigbang4u2, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1433955 | 01:22 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, hrm. checked volume, etc? make sure you're looking at output tab, not input? | 01:22 |
| helluvaCSmajor | correct | 01:23 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, check modes? | 01:23 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, try booting to live/install disc and see if sound works? | 01:23 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, and have a look at any settings if it does | 01:24 |
| helluvaCSmajor | i should point out, sound works fine in one music player, and in web browser, but the one music player that works does not allow me to mount my andoird phone | 01:24 |
| new2net | rtkit:x:110:119:RealtimeKit,,,:/proc:/bin/false .... lol pulse audio | 01:24 |

| rsfreitas | Anyone know the requirements to run ubuntu with unity 2d? helping friend | 01:25 |
| helluvaCSmajor | exaile plays music just fine, banshee and rythmbox stop immediately after i click play | 01:25 |
| tanath | rsfreitas, google 'unity requirements'? | 01:25 |
| Sanctusorium | Would anyone here be able to help me with my VNC config? WHenever I connect to the remote desktop and it loads up any GUI, it is completely bugged out... Icons won't show and black boxes replace them. | 01:25 |
| helluvaCSmajor | amarok has UI issues that prevent me from using it | 01:25 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, poke in exaile's settings and see if you can find what it's doing differently? | 01:26 |
| rsfreitas | this don't exist! I knew it | 01:26 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, and try banshee from terminal to look for error | 01:26 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, amarok became lame anyway | 01:26 |
| tanath | anyone know how to thoroughly disable nautilus? | 01:27 |
| matt00 | tanath: Besides uninstall it? | 01:27 |
| tanath | matt00, basically, yeah. can't seem to keep it from running | 01:27 |
| j0el0g | anyone know the sudo apt get for the newest gtk install? | 01:28 |
| tanath | matt00, switched default file manager and turned off draw desktop... | 01:28 |
| helluvaCSmajor | i tried playing a song in banshee and it is dumping error messages to the terminal | 01:28 |
| j0el0g | looking for a gtk for ruby | 01:28 |
| tanath | matt00, still runs even after i kill it though | 01:28 |
| matt00 | tanath, you might be better off installing xubuntu or CLI only version. | 01:28 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, before or after playing? | 01:28 |

| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, that's not terribly helpful and shouldn't be relevant. try rhythmbox instead? | 01:29 |
| matt00 | tanath, there are also fluxbox, openbox and several other options if you don't like xfce. | 01:29 |
| helluvaCSmajor | i am trying to paste the error output, one moment | 01:30 |
| tanath | matt00, yeah, they all have issues. i prefer gnome. i just need to be able to kill nautils and not have it come back | 01:30 |
| matt00 | tanath, I think gnome and nautilus are hard to separate. | 01:30 |
| tanath | matt00, well that's what i'm after | 01:30 |
| schnerf | I have an odd question about using an input file to run a whole bunch of commands. is there someone who can help? | 01:30 |
| tanath | matt00, i did the two obvious things... there's apparently something else though | 01:31 |
| matt00 | tanath, did you try GNOME with openbox as the window manager? | 01:31 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, need to use pastebin | 01:31 |

| mrwizard | For some reason, ubuntu isn't recognizing my windows 7 partition, and shows my entire drive as unallocated. This is a problem, as I would like to dualboot. Any ideas why? The drive is connected to SATA port 2 | 01:32 |
| gskellig | there is a command in "startup applications" that isn't being run on startup. "synclient tapbutton2=2 and synclient tapbutton3=3" | 01:33 |
| th0r | gskellig: make sure you have the upper/lower case in that command right | 01:34 |
| gskellig | I do | 01:34 |
| gskellig | i've actually noticed the "synclient" matters for caps | 01:34 |
| tanath | matt00, ok, looks like your gstreamer is messed up. try reinstalling gstreamer packages? can search for them in synaptic | 01:34 |
| gskellig | but synclient TapButton2=2 works the same as synclient tapbutton2=2 | 01:34 |
| th0r | gskellig: If you try 'synclient -l' I think you will find it is TapButton | 01:34 |

| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, are you using any 3rd-party repositories? | 01:36 |
| EagleScreen | hello | 01:36 |
| helluvaCSmajor | not sure | 01:36 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, if you aren't, maybe you should. if you are, maybe you shouldn't. :P could be bug in gstreamer | 01:37 |
| helluvaCSmajor | how do i check that? | 01:37 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, if you're using ubuntu's gstreamer packages you might look for bug report or file | 01:37 |
| pagan0ne | anyone have any ideas? | 01:37 |
| helluvaCSmajor | how? | 01:38 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, can see in synaptic the source of package | 01:38 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, launchpad.net | 01:38 |
| tanath | for bugs | 01:38 |
| EagleScreen | I installed Ubuntu without encrypted home, but later, I have encrypted it with "ecrypfs-migrate-home", it created a random passphrase, and it hasn't showed to me, therefore, now I can acees my home with my user login, but I dont know my encryption passphrase | 01:38 |
| helluvaCSmajor | i see a lot of packages with gstreamer | 01:39 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, there should be a bunch, yes | 01:40 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, just look for a plugins package you have installed | 01:40 |
| pagan0ne | anyone have any idea how to compare a drive image made using dd to the actual drive to ensure its a good image w/o any errors? | 01:41 |

| Draugon | jimi_ make sure that the "software restricted by copyright or legal issue (multiverse)" checkbox is checked. click close, then reload in the toolbar and then type flash into the filter textbox at the top | 01:47 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, ok, well if you don't know if you've added 3rd-party repos then you prolly haven't | 01:47 |
| helluvaCSmajor | i think i did for google chrome, but when i upgraded, i recall a message saying it was disabling 3rd-party sources | 01:48 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, but you could do something like dpkg -s gstreamer0.10-plugins-good and look at maintainer | 01:48 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, yeah, but they might be reenabled after... | 01:49 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, but try selecting all your installed gstreamer plugins and reinstalling them | 01:50 |

| helluvaCSmajor | how do i know which packages to reinstall? i see lots of packages related to gstreamer | 01:53 |
| i_needhelp | ok so I install ubuntu, and x won't start upon reboot | 01:53 |
| i_needhelp | or rather, it does start but wont load graphics. | 01:53 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, the installed ones. they have a green box next to them. you can sort by status (the column with the boxes) | 01:53 |

| i_needhelp | kk | 01:54 |
| helluvaCSmajor | no, i mean i have lots of them installed, maybe 20 or more | 01:54 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, or you can just go to the installed section to only see installed ones | 01:54 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, they're not terribly big... | 01:54 |
| carandraug | hey! I have a package that is not configured. I know that and I don't want aptitude to do it. However, I can't install anything because it tries to configure that one. How do I tell him to not configure it? I tried to muck around with /var/lib/dpkg/status and mark it as installed but didn't work | 01:55 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, shouldn't be a big deal to just reinstall all of them. | 01:55 |
| helluvaCSmajor | so i mark any package with "gstreamer" to be reinstalled? | 01:55 |
| helluvaCSmajor | ok | 01:55 |
| tanath | yeh | 01:55 |
| gold | hey after install drivers for GeForce 6200 Turbo Cache when I maximize firefox it is blank | 01:55 |

| TheEmpath | hi | 01:55 |
| helluvaCSmajor | ok, i will update, then reinstall all installed gstreamer packages | 01:56 |

| cgroza | quotemstr, your are not the only one. | 01:57 |
| tanath | helluvaCSmajor, if that doesn't work, i'd suggest looking into alsa or sound driver. can try reinstalling those too | 01:57 |
| bazhang | helluvaCSmajor, why would you need to reinstall the gstreamer packages | 01:57 |
| i_needhelp | how do i restart in recovery mode | 01:57 |
| bazhang | i_needhelp, hold shift a t boot | 01:58 |
| quant | i_needhelp: you reboot and choose recovery mode? | 01:58 |
| tanath | bazhang, helluvaCSmajor seems to have a messed up gstreamer. players which use it don't play and report gstreamer errors | 01:58 |

I cannot input text into any window when this is happening.. I NEED A FIX | 02:12 |
| bazhang | rinkukokiri, try without compiz? | 02:12 |
| rinkukokiri | i thought that's what I just said. | 02:12 |
| edbian | rinkukokiri: use ubuntu (no effects) | 02:12 |
| bazhang | rinkukokiri, also, what window decorator are you using | 02:12 |

| bazhang | gold, what about with non fullscreen | 02:15 |
| rinkukokiri | Ok so what happened to compiz and why can't I use it anymore? | 02:15 |
| gold | bazhang: It works that way. | 02:15 |
| rinkukokiri | up until this version of ubuntu i was able to use compiz | 02:15 |
| bazhang | rinkukokiri, try #compiz | 02:15 |
| gold | bazhang: just when I maximize it then there is a problem | 02:15 |

| rinkukokiri | bazhang, edbian ever since this version of ubuntu and it's 'unity | 02:16 |
| bazhang | Dommer, drop the caps and the cursing | 02:16 |
| edbian | rinkukokiri: Do you have ccsm installed? | 02:16 |
| rinkukokiri | i have the base system installed that's it | 02:17 |

| EagleScreen | "ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase ~/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase" ask me a passphrase insted if showing me one, is it the expected behavior?? | 02:17 |
| bazhang | rinkukokiri, its a unity And compiz problem | 02:17 |
| Dommer | THNK YOU | 02:17 |
| IdleOne | Dommer: drop the caps please | 02:17 |
| rinkukokiri | then why do we have unity and compiz | 02:17 |
| edbian | rinkukokiri: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager. In there is a tool to turn on the window decorations. | 02:17 |
| edbian | rinkukokiri: all compiz does it draw window borders and make pretty effects. Unity does all the heavy lifting (like providing an interface) | 02:18 |
| edbian | rinkukokiri: metacity and compiz are both window managers | 02:18 |
| rinkukokiri | edbian, i don't use unity | 02:18 |
| rinkukokiri | edbian, i login to ubuntu classic | 02:18 |
| edbian | rinkukokiri: Then you use gnome 2.X which provides an interface | 02:18 |
| Draugon | edbian: isn't it gnome that does the 'heavy lifting'? | 02:18 |
| helluvaCSmajor | well, it sounds like i will have to switch back to windows if ubuntu does not have working music players, thanks for the assistance | 02:19 |
| edbian | Draugon: I guess technically | 02:19 |
| aeon-ltd | you could just X | 02:19 |
| edbian | rinkukokiri: ubuntu classic is gnome 2.X and compiz | 02:19 |
| aeon-ltd | *just say | 02:19 |
| rinkukokiri | then how is it a 'unity and compiz' problem? | 02:19 |
| quant | edbian: so is Unity | 02:19 |
| rinkukokiri | because I have NEVER had problems with this hardware up until this version of ubuntu | 02:19 |
| bazhang | rinkukokiri, you said it was unity in your initial posts | 02:20 |
| phreck | unity = compiz plugin correct? | 02:20 |
| quant | edbian: wrong person, nevermind | 02:20 |
| quant | phreck: yes | 02:20 |
| edbian | rinkukokiri: Did you install sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager so I can fix your problem? | 02:20 |
| edbian | quant: :) | 02:20 |
| phreck | its garbage imo. | 02:20 |
| Draugon | phreck: nope, they're separate... Unity is a plugin for compiz | 02:20 |
| rinkukokiri | I said 'ever since this unity bs, ' | 02:20 |
| IdleOne | helluvaCSmajor: xmms, mpd, vlc, sonata, totem, songbird, mplayer, juk, sox, moc, listen, gmusicbrowser, cmus, xmms2, minirok, aqualung, quark, juke, muine, irmp3, jlgui, moosic, somaplayer, banshee, rhythmbox just to name a few | 02:20 |
| Draugon | phreck: (and some extra) I have to agree on the garbage-ness of unity | 02:20 |
| rinkukokiri | edbian, no, because I know how to use ccsm | 02:20 |
| IdleOne | remove xmms from that list it is no longer maintained | 02:21 |
| edbian | rinkukokiri: You know how to use it so you refuse to install it? | 02:21 |

| rinkukokiri | yes | 02:25 |

| Dommer | Ok, pitivi didn't work, any other ideas? | 02:27 |
| edbian | rinkukokiri: change the command to /usr/bin/compiz-decorator | 02:27 |
| edbian | rinkukokiri: I don't think changing the session would change what is written in that command box. The sessions are just 'compiz on' or 'compiz off' | 02:28 |

| rinkukokiri | ok here's another issue, with compiz enabled (instead of metacity) I can't even use windows on the other monitor. | 02:31 |
| rinkukokiri | because I can't open fusion icon to reload the window manager | 02:31 |
| rinkukokiri | and i can't type in any window over there so terminal is out | 02:32 |

| RenaKunisaki | actually I remember the other day my USB hard disk was also giving I/O errors; thought it might be the disk failing but it could be USB issues too | 02:39 |
| RenaKunisaki | I'll try on a liveCD, thanks | 02:39 |

| symb0l | bazhang: is there a place I can go to make noise the developers of unity might see regarding this issue and some others? | 02:40 |
| bazhang | symb0l, file a wishlist bug | 02:41 |

| Ladynikon | rinkukokiri: is it booting into the correct init level? | 02:42 |
| bazhang | symb0l, not sure there, sorry. perhaps #ubuntu-devel would know | 02:42 |
| rinkukokiri | Draugon, yea I had to do that just now to get my titlebars set up | 02:43 |
| rinkukokiri | Ladynikon, how do i check that? | 02:43 |
| daemian | has anyone managed to install postgres 9.0 or 9.1 on ubuntu 11.04? i'm getting apt errors with either. 9.0 installs the wrong version of libpq-dev and 9.1's server-dev package wants "(>= 117) but 117~natty is to be installed" | 02:45 |
| Draugon | rinkukokiri: try this: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm | 02:45 |
| === Virante is now known as rjonesx | ||
| Draugon | rinkukokiri: I mean sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm | 02:45 |

| rinkukokiri | s/servers/screen/ | 02:54 |
| rww | wageringall_: because space on the LiveCD is limited, and most users wouldn't use Base. | 02:54 |
| wageringall_ | rww: how to get it? | 02:54 |
| rww | wageringall_: install the package 'libreoffice-base' | 02:54 |
| rcmaehl | ^ | 02:54 |
| wageringall_ | rww: thank you | 02:55 |
| Draugon | rinkukokiri click the configure button and try setting them for twinview | 02:55 |

| Draugon | lordcrusader: suod apt-get install fglrx | 03:44 |
| lordcrusader | I have ran a few tests that have said that the 3D couldn't start.... but hoping that's just cause of the lack of software for the card | 03:44 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: oops I meant: sudo apt-get install fglrx | 03:44 |
| WizardDio | wo ho | 03:44 |
| Xcytre | Doesn't ATI have proprietary drivers? | 03:44 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: chances are 99.9% that you just need to install some stuff :) probably have not damaged anything physically :) | 03:44 |
| lordcrusader | already have the software for the fglrx | 03:45 |
| Draugon | xcytre: is fglrx not the closed source? I should probably look close, eh? lol | 03:45 |

| lordcrusader | desktop...... that's why it has a problem and freezes at the check battery I believe | 03:57 |
| supercom32 | If my network uses DHCP, rather than grab an address from the network, can I just use Ubuntu and manually specify all that information? Will it work, or will it not communicate on the network without first registering with the DHCP server? | 03:57 |

| NitrousOS | Corey: http://paste.ubuntu.com/619585/ | 04:28 |
| billy_ | Draugon, Some edge and key bindings of Plugin Ubuntu Unity Plugin conflict with other plugins. Do you want to resolve these conflicts? | 04:28 |
| billy_ | should i continue | 04:28 |
| Legendary_Bibo | no | 04:28 |
| Draugon | billy_: choose yes, then Choose all the keybinding for the unity plugin | 04:28 |
| billy_ | right | 04:28 |
| Corey | NitrousOS: Did you run the command as "sudo apt-get upgrade?" | 04:28 |
| AMB | I'll install ubuntu when i get my new desktop. Just to play aroud on the netbook with ubuntu | 04:28 |
| NitrousOS | Yes | 04:28 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: does it lockup there? | 04:29 |
| lordcrusader | yeah..... I think....... the screen goes blank and doesn't show it loading anymore | 04:29 |
| KM0201 | AMB: have you tried booting a live usb/cd, to see if your wireless device works? ( alot of thos enetbooks have atheros devices, and they work out of the box... at least my two did) | 04:29 |
| InfectedSoul | How do you change ownership of the directory to another user? | 04:29 |
| billy_ | Draugon, The new value for the key binding for the action Key to put keyboard-focus on launcher in plugin Ubuntu Unity Plugin conflicts with the action Show Main Menu of the Gnome Compatibility plugin. | 04:30 |
| billy_ | Do you wish to disable Show Main Menu in the Gnome Compatibility plugin? | 04:30 |
| tsok | When I try to boot to linux with a dual-boot (Win7 and Linux) it gives the error "Try (hd0,0): EXT2:" | 04:30 |
| tsok | any help? | 04:30 |
| asadrian | ? | 04:30 |
| lordcrusader | then I restarted it hard, and started it in failsafe mode | 04:30 |
| Draugon | billy_: choose yes. | 04:30 |
| temongantengbgt | hi all, how about your firefox 4 in ubuntu? | 04:30 |
| Legendary_Bibo | I use Chrome | 04:30 |
| Jordan_U | InfectedSoul: sudo chown username:groupname /path/to/directory/ | 04:31 |
| ffb | hi.....where i find channel for dumps testking? | 04:31 |
| rinkukokiri | temongantengbgt, what problem are you having with it? | 04:31 |
| billy_ | right that seems to be everything | 04:31 |
| asadrian | well i been read that, but say "open a terminal" how can i do that if my screen is completly black and i not see the boot loader? | 04:31 |
| Jordan_U | temongantengbgt: I don't understand your question. | 04:31 |
| lordcrusader | have been trying to clean the comp up as well, but for some odd reason computer janitor won't work either...... have even tried reinstalling it | 04:31 |
| billy_ | whats dektop cube | 04:31 |
| InfectedSoul | so since criminal owns it would he go first or 2nd? | 04:31 |
| Legendary_Bibo | billy: compiz | 04:32 |
| NitrousOS | Also Corey, my Ubuntu Software Center doesn't load anything | 04:32 |
| asadrian | jordan u? | 04:32 |
| Draugon | billy_: enable that one as well | 04:32 |
| Legendary_Bibo | hold ctrl+alt+left click and drag it around | 04:32 |
| Legendary_Bibo | it's cool at first but you'll get bored of it eventually | 04:32 |
| Jordan_U | asadrian: Please boot from a LivCD/USB, run boot info script as explained here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and pastebin the RESULTS.txt it produces. | 04:32 |
| Corey | NitrousOS: From the looks of it something ate your package database? | 04:32 |
| NitrousOS | O.o | 04:32 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: Ok, hmmm | 04:32 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: lemme look something up | 04:33 |
| lordcrusader | ok, appreciate it :) | 04:33 |
| NitrousOS | Anything I can do about it? | 04:33 |
| temongantengbgt | my fire fox 4 running verry heavy, | 04:33 |
| billy_ | right there both enabled | 04:33 |
| KM0201 | temongantengbgt: chromium? | 04:33 |
| rinkukokiri | Legendary_Bibo, actually it's a plugin used by compiz that allows you to use your multiple workspaces on a cube interface... it's not compiz itself | 04:33 |
| Legendary_Bibo | I know | 04:34 |
| InfectedSoul | is it chmod 755 or chown ? | 04:34 |
| temongantengbgt | chromium is not heavy, | 04:34 |
| Legendary_Bibo | chrome and chomium aren't heavy | 04:34 |
| asadrian | ok | 04:34 |
| Legendary_Bibo | in fact all data weighs zero weight | 04:34 |
| rinkukokiri | Legendary_Bibo, then you *could* be more descriptive when people ask things like that, ... he is using compiz config settings manager, I do believe he knows it's part of compiz | 04:34 |
| Legendary_Bibo | no | 04:35 |
| temongantengbgt | sometimes firefox4 can spend a memory of 700MB for firefox only | 04:35 |
| rinkukokiri | therefore your answer wasn't helping much | 04:35 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: do this: "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf" does it show the contents of that file? can you send that file to paste.ubuntu.org? | 04:35 |
| Legendary_Bibo | compiz and the cube are usually associated with each other | 04:35 |
| tsok | Can anybody help me set up ubuntu dual-boot windows 7???? | 04:35 |
| billy_ | Draugon right there both enabled | 04:35 |
| Draugon | billy_: OK, then in the terminal run: sudo service gdm restart it's a little faster than rebooting the computer | 04:35 |
| MK`` | hi I removed an application, but there is a dead shortcut to it in the menu. When I go to edit the menu, it doesn't list the entry... how can I remove them? | 04:35 |
| temongantengbgt | tsok: what the problem? | 04:35 |
| KM0201 | temongantengbgt: memory leaks have always been a symptom of firefox... is it happening like on YT, or heavy flash sites? | 04:36 |
| Legendary_Bibo | tsok: Use Gparted on the Live CD, easy peasy. Are you having a problem with it? | 04:36 |
| tsok | temongantengbgt: well right now I have ubuntu installed primary, and windows 7 on a secendary partition. but when I try to boot to ubuntu it gives the error "Try (hd0,0): EXT2" | 04:36 |
| lordcrusader | no such directory | 04:36 |
| InfectedSoul | Jordan_U still wont allow me to write | 04:36 |
| tsok | Legendary_Bibo: I just want to restart because I already tried installing ubuntu with no prevail. | 04:36 |
| asadrian | how can i partition my external hard drive? | 04:37 |
| Jordan_U | InfectedSoul: What is the output of "ls -l /path/to/config.yml"? | 04:37 |
| tsok | Legendary_Bibo: I can't seem to get my dual-booting work, so I wanted to restart and get windows 7 and dual-boot ubuntu after that. | 04:37 |
| asadrian | thats all the problem | 04:37 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: OK, another moment | 04:37 |
| temongantengbgt | km0201 : yes, I open many tab on it... :D | 04:37 |
| KM0201 | temongantengbgt: well.. then there you go. | 04:37 |
| lordcrusader | lol thank you very much | 04:37 |
| ubuntuguy | I uninstalled the whole libreoffice suite and installed abiword, I didn't gain any extra harddrive space. Why is this? | 04:37 |
| KM0201 | it's probably flash related, not a FF4 problem | 04:37 |
| InfectedSoul | -rw-rw-r-- 1 755 criminal 6922 Jun 4 11:27 mine/MineCraft Server/plugins/CraftIRC/config.yml | 04:37 |
| Legendary_Bibo | tsok: Install Win7, boot into LiveCD, then click install and use Gparted to make a windows partition | 04:37 |
| asadrian | how can i partition my external hard drive? | 04:37 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: OK, run fglrxconfig | 04:38 |
| KM0201 | temongantengbgt: honestly, i have very few problems out of FF4... it works very well compared to 3. | 04:38 |
| temongantengbgt | km0201 : waiting the flash is dead, and replacing by html 5 :D | 04:38 |
| tsok | Legendary_Bibo: Windows 7 is installed right now, should I reinstall it and wipe all of the partitions to make a fresh install? and then install ubuntu w/ livecd? | 04:38 |
| KM0201 | temongantengbgt: well, then don't open so many tabs. | 04:38 |
| rinkukokiri | tsok, install windows seven, during install allocate whatever you want to win7 and leave a partition open for ubuntu, then after win7 is installed, boot to the ubuntu live cd and install to the remaining space on the hdd | 04:38 |
| Legendary_Bibo | asadrian: Mount it and use gparted on it | 04:38 |
| lordcrusader | command not found | 04:38 |
| lordcrusader | :/ | 04:38 |
| asadrian | im mean how many partitions i need for install been sucessfully in my external hard drive? | 04:38 |
| KM0201 | temongantengbgt: just cuz YT may not use flash, doesn't mean flash is "dead. | 04:38 |
| Legendary_Bibo | tsok: You can use a partition that's already set up | 04:39 |
| dr_Willis | asadrian: the installer can auto partition it. | 04:39 |
| ubuntuguy | I uninstalled the whole libreoffice suite and installed abiword, I didn't gain any extra harddrive space. Why is this? | 04:39 |
| Jordan_U | asadrian: Please run boot info script as I explained, it will give us the information on what partitions you have as well as a lot of other usefull information. | 04:39 |
| asadrian | but when im was installation | 04:39 |
| KM0201 | ubuntuguy: sudo apt-get autoremove then sudo apt-get autoclean | 04:39 |
| asadrian | ok | 04:39 |
| Legendary_Bibo | ubuntuguy: sudo apt-get --purge libre-office | 04:39 |
| tsok | Legendary_Bibo: ok ill go try this. | 04:39 |
| dr_Willis | asadrian: a swap partition and a / partitiin are all thats needed | 04:40 |
| temongantengbgt | km0201: yes, but in cromium open many tabs is not problem | 04:40 |
| lordcrusader | is my comp screwed? lol | 04:40 |
| KM0201 | ubuntuguy: either way, your'e still probably only talking a 2-250mb... you may not even notice much of a "savings" | 04:40 |
| asadrian | i havent swap partition... thats what the installation say me | 04:40 |
| rinkukokiri | temongantengbgt, in windows, firefox 4 uses separate processes for flash | 04:40 |
| KM0201 | temongantengbgt: then use chromium, they are different programs... Chromium does some things better than FF4. | 04:40 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: OK, it should be installed... that's weird | 04:40 |
| rinkukokiri | i'm not sure if that's the case in ubuntu or not | 04:40 |
| ubuntuguy | What does autoremove do? | 04:40 |
| ubuntuguy | It lieks cleans it out completely? | 04:41 |
| Legendary_Bibo | asadrian: What's your computer's specs? Swap is for older computers mostly | 04:41 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: it's not screwed, it's just a little more confused than we are :) | 04:41 |
| KM0201 | ubuntuguy: it uninstalls packages that the system no longer requires | 04:41 |
| rinkukokiri | KM0201, s/better/different/ | 04:41 |
| KM0201 | !autoremove | 04:41 |
| KM0201 | hmm | 04:41 |
| lordcrusader | lol doubt that >.< | 04:41 |
| temongantengbgt | kmo201 : ok, I undestand | 04:41 |
| KM0201 | rinkukokiri: not sure i understand what you mean | 04:41 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: try aticonfig --help | 04:41 |
| rinkukokiri | KM0201, different isn't always better. | 04:42 |
| lordcrusader | no supported adapters detected :S | 04:42 |
| KM0201 | rinkukokiri: oh i totally agree, i was just explaining to him, they're different programs.. firefox has always been prone to memory leaks.. always. | 04:42 |
| ubuntuguy | Thanks Km and Legendary! | 04:42 |
| KM0201 | temongantengbgt: how much ram does your system have | 04:42 |
| ubuntuguy | btw, what does autoclean do? | 04:42 |
| rinkukokiri | autoremove is used to remove packages that were automatically | 04:42 |
| rinkukokiri | installed to satisfy dependencies for some package and that are no | 04:42 |
| rinkukokiri | more needed. | 04:42 |
| temongantengbgt | km0201 : 4gb | 04:42 |
| KM0201 | hmm | 04:42 |
| Draugon | KM0201: when you install something, it will 'depend' on something else. when you remove that thing, then the 'dependencies' may remain. autoremove removes extraneous dependencies | 04:42 |
| darnell | Hello, I was wondering if there was a way to add an LTSP client to my PXE install server?? | 04:42 |
| KM0201 | Draugon: i know, i told him to use it. | 04:43 |
| KM0201 | i know what autoremove does | 04:43 |
| KM0201 | Draugon: i just thought it had a factoid.. | 04:43 |
| Draugon | km0201: oh, lol, I meant to say that to ubuntu guy | 04:43 |
| KM0201 | lol | 04:43 |
| Draugon | ubuntuguy: when you install something, it will 'depend' on something else. when you remove that thing, then the 'dependencies' may remain. autoremove removes extraneous dependencies | 04:43 |
| KM0201 | i told him what it did... | 04:43 |
| billy_ | Draugon, nope still the same im updating my pc now do you think that'll help? | 04:43 |
| InfectedSoul | well guess i wont get help with my issue since its taking forever for an answer | 04:44 |
| NitrousOS | Corey you still there? o.o | 04:44 |
| ubuntuguy | Cool, thanks | 04:44 |
| Draugon | billy_: it may. let me know when it's done and we'll continue troubleshooting | 04:44 |
| billy_ | cool cheers for the help :) | 04:44 |
| Legendary_Bibo | InfectedSoul: what's your problem? | 04:44 |
| lwizardl | hello | 04:44 |
| InfectedSoul | having issues writting to a file thats chown to 755 minecraft | 04:45 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: try running jockey and see if it has ATI drivers shown there (that aren't checked) | 04:45 |
| rinkukokiri | InfectedSoul, don't feel bad, I still haven't gotten a fix for several problems ;) | 04:45 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: the command is jockey-gtk | 04:45 |
| lwizardl | how in ubuntu can i take a livecd iso and write it to a sdcard for booting in an eee pc | 04:45 |
| rod | I'm sure its been asked 1000 times but can I move the left side-bar in ubuntu11.04 to the right side? | 04:45 |
| KM0201 | ubuntuguy: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=592141 post #2 explains it well. | 04:46 |
| Legendary_Bibo | InfectedSoul: sudo gedit /file/path | 04:46 |
| rod | it's terrible because it pops out every time i try to go back in browser | 04:46 |
| billy_ | lwizardl, just right click the iso and select burn to disk it will give you an option of flash drive or cd | 04:46 |
| ubuntuguy | Thanks | 04:46 |
| Legendary_Bibo | rod: you might like gnome classic better | 04:46 |
| InfectedSoul | I aint giving root to a user i dont kthx | 04:46 |
| lordcrusader | no proprietary drivers are in use...... it's never had one for this card. The only time anything popped up there is when I was using an Nvidia card, which unfortunately burned up | 04:46 |
| rod | how to switch? | 04:46 |
| rod | i'm going crazy | 04:46 |
| darnell | Hello, I was wondering if there was a way to add an LTSP client to my PXE install server?? | 04:47 |
| qin | rod: Alt Left Arrow, or mouse gestures | 04:47 |
| lwizardl | billy_, nope says no writer disc found | 04:47 |
| Legendary_Bibo | rod: logout and at the bottom where it says Ubuntu Desktop with a dropdown arrow, click on the arrow and choose Gnome classic | 04:47 |
| Draugon | rod: if you right-click a part of the panel that doesn't have an icon can you then choose properties? | 04:47 |
| rinkukokiri | InfectedSoul, sudo gedit /file/path doesn't give root to a person, it opens a file as root, Legendary_Bibo you shouldn't suggest sudo with a graphical program like that | 04:47 |
| rinkukokiri | !gksu | 04:47 |
| ubottu | If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 04:47 |
| billy_ | i dunno then mate sorry it was just a suggestion | 04:47 |
| Legendary_Bibo | whatever use gksudo | 04:48 |
| Legendary_Bibo | I use sudo with gedit all the time and I've never had an issue | 04:48 |
| InfectedSoul | in order to use sudo u gotta be added to it | 04:48 |
| InfectedSoul | i dont trust anyone on my box kthx | 04:48 |
| KM0201 | Legendary_Bibo: just because you can, doesn't mean you should, or recommend others do it. | 04:48 |
| Legendary_Bibo | what? | 04:48 |
| billy_ | lwizardl, you could check and see if your disk drive plug in properly | 04:49 |
| Legendary_Bibo | InfectedSould: you're not giving a user root permissions, you're giving yourself elevated privileges so you can edit the file | 04:49 |
| InfectedSoul | its not my account | 04:49 |
| KM0201 | !sudo | InfectedSoul | 04:49 |
| ubottu | InfectedSoul: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 04:49 |
| lwizardl | billy_, the sdcard reading is built in and yes it is mounted on my desktop i can see the icon and format the drive | 04:49 |
| asadrian | im in ubuntu rigth now could you passme the script url against please | 04:49 |
| InfectedSoul | you give them sudo access then they install shit that can fuck ur system up no thanks | 04:50 |

| ubottu | asadrian: Boot info script is a usefull script for diagnosing boot problems. Run the script following the directions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and then look at RESULTS.txt (or !pastebin it for others to look at). | 04:51 |
| billy_ | lwizardl, sorry mate i cant help you | 04:51 |
| rinkukokiri | InfectedSoul, you could just chmod the file so they can write to it. | 04:52 |
| InfectedSoul | tried it | 04:52 |
| Legendary_Bibo | rinkukokir: that works. If it's a Minecraft config file I doubt it's that important and removing root priveleges shouldn't be an issue | 04:52 |
| KM0201 | Legendary_Bibo: well, if he doesn't want a user to have root access for whatever reason... i geuss thats hsi perogative... if hes concerned about them bricking something, then it's best they not have root priv. | 04:52 |
| rinkukokiri | InfectedSoul, you have it 755 that's you rwx others rx no write | 04:53 |
| InfectedSoul | i did have it at 777 | 04:53 |
| Legendary_Bibo | chmod g+w /file | 04:53 |
| rinkukokiri | is it in a folder that they have perms on? | 04:53 |
| asadrian | jordan i got the result.txt | 04:53 |
| asadrian | who you can see that? | 04:54 |

| Legendary_Bibo | lwizardl: That's interesting. I've never heard of a boot SD card. To the Googles! | 04:54 |
| rinkukokiri | Legendary_Bibo, when I install ubuntu that's where it wants to actually install grub to.. my SDHC | 04:54 |
| rypervenche | Legendary_Bibo: I have an SD card that I use for BT. | 04:55 |
| billy_ | Legendary_Bibo, you can use a flash drive thogh so i suppose its not much differnt | 04:55 |
| qin | InfectedSoul: Can user ls and cd to directory where file is? | 04:55 |
| Legendary_Bibo | http://wiki.geteasypeasy.com/Install:_from_a_Live_Ubuntu_CD_directly_onto_an_SD_card_using_a_desktop(or_laptop)_pc | 04:55 |
| lordcrusader | yeah....... no proprietary drivers in use | 04:55 |
| InfectedSoul | of course | 04:55 |
| rinkukokiri | InfectedSoul, can they write in the folder? | 04:55 |
| rinkukokiri | touch /path/somefile | 04:55 |
| InfectedSoul | have been able too cept for a couple of folders | 04:56 |
| Draugon | rinkukokiri: did you ever get that other problem sorted out? if not, did you ever try running gdmsetup? | 04:56 |
| InfectedSoul | CraftIRC and some other jars | 04:56 |
| InfectedSoul | but i changed everything to minecraft minecraft | 04:56 |
| rinkukokiri | draugon not yet | 04:56 |
| Legendary_Bibo | rinkukokiri: That sort of makes sense | 04:56 |
| lordcrusader | is there suppose to a proprietary driver? :/ | 04:56 |
| rinkukokiri | InfectedSoul, explain minecraft minecraft is that groups? | 04:56 |
| Legendary_Bibo | Minecraft files shouldn't have permissions like that | 04:57 |
| Draugon | rinkukokiri: just a thought - try creating an icon on that desktop, name it whatever you like and then in the command put in gdmsetup - it may fix it... | 04:57 |
| rinkukokiri | gdmsetup just gives me a window to change settings for the login screen | 04:57 |
| InfectedSoul | i was told to chown it to user:group i didnt know the group so i just did both usernames | 04:57 |
| Corey | InfectedSoul: That's not generally how you're supposed to do things. | 04:58 |
| magn3ts | Should I have startup entries for both "PulseAudio Sound System" AND "PulseAudio Sound System KDE Routing Policy" or is one left over from Maverikc? | 04:58 |
| Jordan_U | asadrian: Go to http://pastebin.ubuntu.com , copy and paste the text into that page, hit the "Paste!" button, then tell me the URL for your paste. | 04:58 |
| rinkukokiri | InfectedSoul, if <group> is not a valid group then there will be some problems | 04:58 |
| InfectedSoul | Well no freaking answered me | 04:58 |
| Legendary_Bibo | InfectedSoul: You should have chmod it not chown it | 04:58 |
| magn3ts | AKA, should both of these be in my Startup Applications Preferences? start-pulseaudio-x11 vs start-pulseaudio-kde | 04:58 |
| Legendary_Bibo | you could do a groupadd and add the users as groups | 04:59 |
| rypervenche | InfectedSoul: Maybe because you are rather rude. | 04:59 |
| Draugon | rinkukokiri: ah, ok, I got it mixed up with a different utility, excuse the suggestion lol | 04:59 |
| rinkukokiri | still though if minecraft (group) owns it and there is no minecraft (group) there will be problems | 04:59 |
| rinkukokiri | Draugon, np | 04:59 |
| InfectedSoul | nvm i got it | 04:59 |
| Legendary_Bibo | magn3ts: Are you on KDE, then if so then yes you should | 04:59 |
| magn3ts | Legendary_Bibo, no. I don't know how that got there. I certainly never put it there and I've never been a KDE user. | 05:00 |
| lordcrusader | is there suppose to be a proprietary driver Draugon? | 05:00 |
| lordcrusader | there was once when I have an Nvidia card...... but not sence I started my Radeon | 05:00 |
| Draugon | another one bites the dust | 05:00 |
| magn3ts | Legendary_Bibo, and it actually looks like in some places you do start -x11 and then -kde ... It doesn't seem there's a gnome equivalent though? | 05:01 |
| Legendary_Bibo | magn3ts: Did you install KDE? That's weird that it's there. I have it too, but I have KDE installed | 05:01 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: yep, for ati | 05:01 |
| lordcrusader | oh crap :/ | 05:01 |
| magn3ts | Legendary_Bibo, nope, never in this copy. I have in VMs but that's different obviously. | 05:01 |
| lordcrusader | is that a problem on my card? or just software problem? | 05:01 |
| magn3ts | Anyone else in here with a always-gnome-only system want to check something for me? | 05:01 |
| magn3ts | It's fast! | 05:01 |
| rinkukokiri | i got it too | 05:01 |
| rinkukokiri | so it's default | 05:01 |
| rinkukokiri | PulseAudio Sound System KDE Routing Policy | 05:01 |
| magn3ts | rinkukokiri, both entries? | 05:02 |
| magn3ts | rinkukokiri, okay, I'll leave it alone then. Thanks! | 05:02 |
| rurufufuss_ | guys, quick question. would upgrading processor/motherboard mean a previously installed ubuntu will stop working? | 05:02 |
| rinkukokiri | yep both entries | 05:02 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: just a software problem. No worries | 05:02 |
| Legendary_Bibo | magn3ts: As long something isn't giving you issues, I wouldn't worry about it | 05:02 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: OK, run this: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install --reinstall jockey jockey-gtk | 05:02 |
| rinkukokiri | rurufufuss_, if it were windows I would say yes, but ... linux?? i would say maybe (don't quote me, wait for a better answer) | 05:03 |
| Legendary_Bibo | rurufufuss_: only if you change the architecture (AMD to Intel) | 05:03 |
| magn3ts | rurufufuss_, In my experience, no. | 05:03 |
| rurufufuss_ | thanks! | 05:03 |
| magn3ts | rurufufuss_, er, only if you change major archs like x86 -> ppc or something weird | 05:03 |
| magn3ts | amd/intel should actually be okay. | 05:04 |
| Legendary_Bibo | rurufufuss_: always create backups just in case | 05:04 |
| magn3ts | unless you go 64-> 32 obviously, lol, but that'd be silly. | 05:04 |
| rinkukokiri | and umm, where you gonna find a new cpu that's 32 only | 05:04 |
| asadrian | jordan | 05:04 |
| asadrian | http://paste.ubuntu.com/619599/ | 05:04 |
| lordcrusader | of course something else lol........ Unable to locate package jockey | 05:04 |
| rurufufuss_ | yeah seems all cpu supports 32/64 these days eh | 05:04 |
| qin | lordcrusader: jockey-gtk | 05:05 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: no worries, did it reinstall jockey-gtk? jockey was incorrect package name on my part | 05:05 |
| Legendary_Bibo | Ubuntu doesn't install on my Z80. Wat do? | 05:05 |
| rurufufuss_ | say, is there a channel at freenode that's more about hardware? | 05:05 |
| magn3ts | rinkukokiri, well yeah, exactly. I didn't know the scenario, just trying to give as thorough info as possible. | 05:05 |
| Fudge | hi is anyone runnin gubuntu on an hp dl380 | 05:05 |
| rinkukokiri | lol | 05:05 |
| Legendary_Bibo | Fudge: That's very specific | 05:05 |
| asadrian | jordan_U... the paste http://paste.ubuntu.com/619599/ | 05:05 |
| rinkukokiri | Legendary_Bibo, take your 8 bit and build a nes outta it? | 05:05 |
| Bekoo | Draugon: I've just formatted my partitions as ext4 and I cannot copy files to them in gnome. could you pls tell me what to do? | 05:05 |
| magn3ts | rurufufuss_, there's ##hardware? | 05:06 |
| rurufufuss_ | oh, that was obvious, i'll check it out thanks | 05:06 |
| rinkukokiri | Bekoo, have you tried unmounting them and then mounting them again? | 05:06 |
| lordcrusader | the only problem it had was unable to locate jockey, unable to locate jockey, and unable to locate gtk :/, did the jockey error twice for some reason | 05:06 |
| Legendary_Bibo | Bekoo: Did you format paritions that had data on them? | 05:06 |
| ShapeShifter499 | hi | 05:06 |
| Draugon | bekoo: you need to mount them. from a terminal type: sudo gedit /etc/fstab | 05:06 |
| Bekoo | Legendary_Bibo no | 05:07 |
| Legendary_Bibo | Or right click and click on archive mounter | 05:07 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: ok, run just this: sudo apt-get install --reinstall jockey-gtk | 05:07 |
| Fudge | yes Legendary_Bibo it is, its one of the hp rack servers that dont have fan control in the bios | 05:07 |
| Draugon | lordcrusader: notice the dash between jockey and gtk | 05:07 |
| lordcrusader | yep | 05:07 |
| Legendary_Bibo | Nautilus usually has entries for mounted partitions | 05:07 |
| ShapeShifter499 | I have two printer "deb" files that wont install properly because they depend on a earlier version of "cups" however if I force install these packages the printer works fine | 05:07 |
| Bekoo | Draugon : they have been already mounted | 05:07 |
| ShapeShifter499 | how can I install these files better? | 05:08 |
| Legendary_Bibo | Sometimes you have to force install them | 05:08 |
| asadrian | jordan-U? | 05:08 |
| asadrian | jordan_U? | 05:08 |

| lordcrusader | ok, finished | 05:08 |
| Legendary_Bibo | Fudge: What issue are you having? | 05:09 |
| Bekoo | rinkukokiri: yea but the nothing happen the same problem | 05:09 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Legendary_Bibo, well if I do I can't update, install, or remove other packages because the system see the install as conflicting | 05:09 |
| lordcrusader | check for proprietary again? | 05:09 |
| qin | asadrian: maybe he idling, this Jordan_U. | 05:09 |

| Draugon | lordcrusader: yep, run jockey-gtk and see if ATI is in there | 05:09 |
| Fudge | the fans are going full speed | 05:09 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Legendary_Bibo, and it makes me remove the drivers for my printer | 05:09 |
| Bekoo | Draugon : yea | 05:09 |
| Draugon | Bekoo: what happens when you try to copy files to them? | 05:09 |
| lordcrusader | still none on the system :s | 05:09 |
| Legendary_Bibo | ShapeShifter499 Go into Synaptic and find the packages and unmark them so the updater doesn't look at them | 05:09 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Legendary_Bibo, um didn't know I could do that ok hold on | 05:10 |
| Legendary_Bibo | I'm not quite sure that's the process, but I know you can do that | 05:10 |

| KM0201 | asadrian: why didn't you just partition your internal drive? when you reinvent the wheel, bound to be problems | 05:18 |
| bencc | will it terminate running software? | 05:18 |
| asadrian | because i need ubuntu anywhere im go | 05:18 |
| ShapeShifter499 | Legendary_Bibo, how do I fix those packages? they are showing as broken although they work fine | 05:18 |
| Legendary_Bibo | bencc: no, it just saves it to your HDD. Also it depends on your power settings weather or not it goes into suspend mode | 05:18 |
| asadrian | and i havent space in my internal | 05:19 |
| KM0201 | asadrian: you could have just made a persistant USB. | 05:19 |
| asadrian | else i what to learn how to | 05:19 |
| asadrian | how can i do that? | 05:19 |
| lordcrusader | still no proprietary drivers installed :s | 05:19 |
| bencc | Legendary_Bibo: my power settings are: "put computer to sleep=never, when laptop lid is closed=suspend" | 05:20 |
| asadrian | km0201 how can i do a persistant usb? | 05:20 |
| bencc | Legendary_Bibo: what does suspend means? | 05:20 |
| bencc | Legendary_Bibo: and what is the laptop lid? | 05:20 |
| qin | bencc: Sleep to ram | 05:20 |
| KM0201 | asadrian: unfortunately its a little late now... will the machine boot windows if the USB is not plugged in? | 05:20 |
| asadrian | yes | 05:20 |
| KM0201 | ok. | 05:21 |

| bencc | qin: so it will suspend running processes? | 05:21 |
| qin | bencc: yes | 05:21 |
| KM0201 | asadrian: ok.. only other thing is.. you have to give it the whole drive i think | 05:21 |

| bencc | qin: thanks | 05:21 |
| Legendary_Bibo | bencc: lid = screen, suspend means that it saves what's on RAM to the hard drive and loads it up when you wake it up | 05:21 |

| qin | bencc: Suspend will lock your screen, so to resume work you need to give password, but all open programs will resume as you left them. | 05:24 |
| Legendary_Bibo | jon8 it is possible | 05:24 |
| Fudge | Legendary_Bibo yep it does, thank you for your efforst :D | 05:25 |
| qin | jon8: yes, or from loop, while [ 1 ]; do task; sleep 15; done; | 05:25 |
| Legendary_Bibo | jon8 oh wait my bad, you can't do it with cron. Cron only handles up to minutes | 05:26 |
| Legendary_Bibo | no problem Fudge | 05:26 |
| jon8 | qin how can i do that in crontab its self? | 05:27 |
| jon8 | qin if you could give me a direct example how to execute say, check.sh every 15 seconds from crontab, that'd be great ;) | 05:27 |
| qin | jon8: run task every minute 4 times. | 05:27 |

| Ghost_Who_Walks | guys i wondering because i have never tried the alternative installer is there any difference after the installation is complete | 05:33 |
| GridCube | nope | 05:34 |
| Legendary_Bibo | GridCube use man audacious, and see if that's an option | 05:34 |
| Legendary_Bibo | or audacious --help | 05:34 |
| KM0201 | Ghost_Who_Walks: no, the actual install is the only thing different... if you've used the live cd a few times, the alt. cd will be gravy for you | 05:34 |
| bill | Just upgraded to 11.04 and didn't keep my login.defs - my UID# is lower than the UID Min in the new login.defs file, so I can't login at all - any idea how I can access that file and change UID Min? | 05:34 |
| Ghost_Who_Walks | thanks KM0201 | 05:34 |
| KM0201 | np, good luck | 05:35 |
| Ghost_Who_Walks | i've been using live cd since 8.10 | 05:35 |
| Legendary_Bibo | bill use a live cd and then you should be able to edit it | 05:35 |
| KM0201 | Ghost_Who_Walks: then you'll have no problem w/ it... (or at least i can't imagine you having a problem with it... )... | 05:35 |
| GridCube | :D thanks Legendary_Bibo that was actually what i should have had to do first, if you want to know is audacious --interface newui | 05:35 |

| Legendary_Bibo | just tried it | 05:41 |

| flametai1 | Legendary_Bibo, I don't understand why out of the blue it would stop? | 05:59 |
| mikeru | Legendary_Bibo: it's weird and somewhat difficult to describe | 05:59 |
| elijahsh | minsik: in console try "blkid -o list" and I don't see any ubuntu partition on that disk... Wherefore you can add to you fstab line to mount your partition | 05:59 |
| REK_007 | can anyone suggest a good HTML IDE ? | 05:59 |
| mikeru | so, I open up a page, and no problem or it loads slowly (doesn't render slowly though) | 06:00 |
| === aron__ is now known as luc3ntx | ||
| mikeru | I open up another tab and it usually loads very slowly or gives up with couldn't find server | 06:00 |
| mikeru | and then in 5 minutes webpages load normally and fine | 06:00 |
| flametai1 | Legendary_Bibo, could mikeru 's problem be due to IPv6? | 06:00 |
| mikeru | and later they don't | 06:01 |
| minsik | elijahsh: http://paste.ubuntu.com/619622/ | 06:01 |
| mikeru | well, I thought it might be my ISP | 06:01 |
| mikeru | and I called them and they told me my internet connection was fine | 06:01 |
| mikeru | and well it's been somewhat unstable before so I didn't believe them every time I called in different days | 06:02 |
| Legendary_Bibo | speedtest.net | 06:02 |
| mikeru | this has been going on for around 4 months | 06:02 |
| Legendary_Bibo | are you using wireless? | 06:02 |
| mikeru | right now I am but doesn't matter I'm usually on ethernet | 06:03 |
| mikeru | anyway | 06:03 |
| mikeru | so yesterday | 06:03 |
| skrappjaw | startup manager doesnt allow selecting usplash | 06:03 |
| mikeru | I fired up Firefox just for the lulz :P | 06:04 |
| elijahsh | minsik: did you see in Nautilus LENOVO_PART? | 06:04 |
| mikeru | and well | 06:04 |
| mikeru | to my surprise | 06:04 |
| mikeru | I haven't had a single problem | 06:04 |
| mikeru | unbelievable | 06:04 |
| minsik | elijahsh: I don't get it.... | 06:04 |
| Legendary_Bibo | Ubuntu doesn't use usplash, it uses Plymouth | 06:04 |
| mikeru | I tried clearing every setting in Chromium "since the beginning of time" | 06:04 |
| mikeru | still no luck | 06:04 |
| mikeru | Legendary_Bibo: http://www.speedtest.net/result/1328418747.png | 06:05 |
| elijahsh | minsik: Open file manager in Ubuntu. In left it must be LENOVO_PART i think it's your windows partition | 06:05 |
| minsik | elijahsh: umm. it's the manufacturer partition which contains windows drivers.. | 06:05 |
| elijahsh | minsik: and try open in file manager /media/LENOVO it another biig partition... | 06:06 |
| Legendary_Bibo | It's slow right now as well? What sites are you going to? Sometimes the ISP will throttle your speed, or a server will have a bunch of traffic and will be slow | 06:06 |
| mikeru | Legendary_Bibo: I'm using Firefox, no problem | 06:06 |
| mikeru | I opened up chromium to test | 06:06 |
| mikeru | Facebook opened fine | 06:06 |

| gmachine_24 | Hi - I need to find the largest files on my notebook - Ubuntu 10.04lts.... how do I do this? | 06:07 |

| mikeru | closed the tab | 06:07 |
| djiefo | I've selected xfce4 by default and now I can't install any theme, all me themes are erased from the appearance tab and if I extract it back it there it's not working could I have any help about it pls? | 06:07 |
| mikeru | opened it up again | 06:07 |
| mikeru | got a clockwise spinning (the kind that appears when it's actually loading data) | 06:07 |
| mikeru | but stayed that way for a very long time | 06:08 |
| user_ | aa | 06:08 |
| mikeru | it loaded slowly | 06:08 |
| Legendary_Bibo | hmmm...do you have a lot of add ons, some of them might cause bad behavior | 06:08 |
| minsik | elijahsh: nothing but a manufacturer partition... window partition is not found... | 06:08 |
| Legendary_Bibo | minsik check your /etc/fstab file | 06:08 |
| elijahsh | minsik: hm, last chance is open /host in file manager | 06:09 |
| minsik | Legendary_Bibo: open it using console? | 06:09 |
| mikeru | Legendary_Bibo: hmm yes I do have a lot | 06:09 |
| user_ | g | 06:09 |
| mikeru | Legendary_Bibo: I disabled many though | 06:10 |
| djiefo | I've selected xfce4 by default and now I can't install any theme, all my themes are erased from the appearance tab and if I extract it back in /.theme it's not working could I have any help about it pls? | 06:10 |
| Legendary_Bibo | you don't have to. You can use gksudo gedit /etc/fstab | 06:10 |
| minsik | elijahsh: wow... thnx... it was the host folder..... | 06:10 |
| mikeru | Legendary_Bibo: ok I've disabled them | 06:11 |
| mikeru | mmm... | 06:11 |
| mikeru | nope | 06:11 |
| mikeru | didn't help | 06:11 |
| elijahsh | minsik: And I still can't understand where is your ubuntu partition. Did you install it? | 06:11 |
| mikeru | Legendary_Bibo: know any desktop recording tool? so that you may understand better | 06:12 |
| minsik | elijahsh: yup... using wubi.... inside /windows partition/ubuntu | 06:12 |
| elijahsh | minsik: Or you just run live cd? | 06:12 |
| djiefo | I've selected xfce4 by default and now I can't install any theme, all my themes are erased from the appearance tab and if I extract it back in /.theme it's not working could I have any help about it pls? | 06:12 |
| Legendary_Bibo | djiefo did they disappear from the gnome appearance settings as well? | 06:12 |
| elijahsh | minsik: you install ubuntu on NTFS partition? | 06:12 |
| mikeru | Legendary_Bibo: also, many pages keep loading even though they're already loaded, sometimes they do load incorrectly though | 06:12 |
| minsik | elijahsh: yup... | 06:12 |
| Legendary_Bibo | minsik: can you install into Windows? Wubi seems to cause a lot of issues, and even destroy Windows partitions | 06:13 |
| Legendary_Bibo | I mean boot into Windows | 06:13 |
| mikeru | Legendary_Bibo: funny. seems that while I have chromium opened my firefox starts doing the same, like if Chromium were using a lot of bandwidth or something | 06:13 |
| elijahsh | minsik: if want to use Ubuntu not just for fun - better reconfigure your disk and make at least one partition for ubuntu with ext4 filesystem | 06:14 |
| minsik | Legendary_Bibo: but it is the best option for first time users... | 06:15 |
| minsik | elijahsh: can i do that? i couldn't do that under windows 7 disk manager because Lenovo 'locked' it. | 06:15 |
| Phong_ | hi guys, is it posible to get youtube video to play locally? | 06:16 |
| Legendary_Bibo | mikeru: hmmm...you may have a process slowing it down, you could try re logging back in, that usually fixes a misbehaving process. This has happened to me before. | 06:16 |
| === ghostwriter is now known as ghost|sleep | ||
| elijahsh | minsik: You can do it during install from CD/Flash but _make backups first_! | 06:17 |
| Legendary_Bibo | minsik: Actually installing from the LiveCD and using Gparted is pretty easy. Wubi was a failed project IMO | 06:17 |
| flametai1 | Can Ubuntu convert .flv's to .dpg? | 06:17 |
| mikeru | Legendary_Bibo: this has persisted for months, I turn off my computer at night (unless I'm downloading something), when I quit chromium everything went back to normal | 06:17 |
| minsik | elijahsh, Legendary_Biboo: will try that when next LTS comes out kkk | 06:17 |
| elijahsh | minsik: Good luck :) | 06:18 |
| DW-drew | o/ | 06:18 |
| Legendary_Bibo | minsik: why not just do it with 10.04? Also, 10.10 > 10.04 | 06:18 |
| minsik | Legendary_Bibo 10.04 - the display doesn't come out... | 06:19 |
| Legendary_Bibo | mikeru I'm stumped, I don't know much about networking. You could try uninstalling Chromium, and Firefox then doing an autoclean and reinstalling them | 06:20 |
| Legendary_Bibo | minsik what do you mean? | 06:20 |

| Legendary_Bibo | minsik use 11.04 then. I have it on my laptop with an Intel HD, and works great. Wireless drivers won't work, but the graphics drivers do | 06:25 |

| visual1ce | does the upgrade to 11.04 from 10.10 through update manager work seamlessly? 10.10 is my first ubuntu and linux distro so I'm coming from a Windows background and have had some weird experiences upgrading OS rather than doing a clean install | 06:37 |
| djiefo | Legendary_Bibo, u see N/A ? | 06:37 |
| Legendary_Bibo | oh yeah. Are there files in it? | 06:38 |
| nit-wit | visual1ce, generally t works fine, but all you have to do is clone the 10.10, to cover all your bases. | 06:39 |
| nit-wit | *it | 06:39 |
| Guest60378 | test | 06:39 |
| Legendary_Bibo | It might be part of the theme. Like the guy wrote it so it would say N/A if there weren't any items in in | 06:39 |
| [deXter] | visual1ce: As in Windows, it's always better to do a clean install from a stability/cleanliness point of view, but for what it's worth, doing an upgrade is far more elegant/cleaner than in windows. | 06:39 |

| Legendary_Bibo | ratz: okay so right click on it, go to properties, and there should be a button with the image of a folder or whatever. Click on it then navigate to the icon you want to use | 07:04 |

| djiefo | yup | 07:17 |
| alexfpms | it is simple | 07:17 |
| Darkenvy | hey can somone help me upgrade java? | 07:18 |
| alexfpms | XChat -> Network list .. -> FreeNode -> Edit | 07:18 |
| Darkenvy | java -version reports 1.5.0 but I need 1.6.0 | 07:18 |
| Darkenvy | my issue is more complicated than just apt-get install sun-java6-bin though | 07:18 |
| alexfpms | djiefo, first you check "Auto connect to this ...." | 07:18 |
| alexfpms | djiefo, then click "Favorite channels" | 07:19 |
| alexfpms | djiefo, then add the channels you want | 07:19 |
| alexfpms | djiefo, in the XChat: Network List: Skip network list on startup -> checked | 07:20 |
| alexfpms | that's all | 07:20 |
| Darkenvy | hey alex | 07:21 |
| alexfpms | Darkenvy, you can install java manually | 07:21 |

| alexfpms | Darkenvy, it doen't metter | 07:21 |
| Darkenvy | then isntall 1.6.0 | 07:21 |
| Darkenvy | okay | 07:21 |
| djiefo | alexfpms, when i click new after writing the channel i want it resets and replace by #channel | 07:21 |
| Darkenvy | then how can I isntall it manually? | 07:21 |
| alexfpms | you need it download first from sun.com | 07:22 |
| Darkenvy | it is odd because sun-java6-bin is installed and java -version reports 1.5.0 | 07:22 |

| Starminn | My Terminal font has some odd spacing issues. Letters are either too far apart, or too close together. Assistance? | 07:30 |
| Legendary_Bibo | yeah alexfpms is absolutely correct. Sorry my instructions were a bit lazy | 07:30 |

| Darkenvy | so we got nothin alexfpms? | 07:40 |
| Legendary_Bibo | djiefo, well you don't have to use it, just install it and setup the file share thing. It's one of their Opera unite things, and you just have to have Opera running and he can access files that you allow, and you can password protect it too | 07:40 |
| alexfpms | Darkenvy, try this wget http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/6u25-b06/jdk-6u25-linux-i586.bin | 07:40 |
| Darkenvy | would it be bad to apt-get purge *java*? | 07:40 |
| alexfpms | Darkenvy, do the same | 07:40 |
| Darkenvy | do the purge? | 07:41 |
| alexfpms | Darkenvy, apt-get purge java* | 07:41 |
| Darkenvy | what about *java*? | 07:41 |
| Legendary_Bibo | do it | 07:41 |
| Darkenvy | a larger wildcard | 07:41 |
| alexfpms | do it | 07:41 |
| Legendary_Bibo | nothing really depends on java | 07:41 |
| djiefo | Legendary_Bibo, nice | 07:42 |
| dr_Willis | openofficxe might complain | 07:42 |
| Legendary_Bibo | djiefo, yeah it's really simple | 07:42 |
| Legendary_Bibo | it'll just be broken temporarily, but he doesn't have x installed so it's fine. It's a server | 07:43 |
| GregAce | hey guys, how would you use the cmd shred to an entire drive ? | 07:44 |
| Darkenvy | alexfpms know whats funny? purged all the javas and java -version still returns 1.5.0 | 07:44 |
| Starminn | dr_Willis: any suggestions? | 07:44 |
| alexfpms | Darkenvy, it is because it is running | 07:44 |
| Darkenvy | so killall java | 07:45 |
| Darkenvy | then repurge? | 07:45 |
| alexfpms | Darkenvy, yes | 07:45 |
| dr_Willis | starmin try some differnt fonts perhaps | 07:45 |
| alexfpms | yes | 07:45 |
| GregAce | suppose the disk is empty, I cannot do a shred * | 07:45 |
| Darkenvy | no process killed | 07:45 |
| histo | GregAce: why not just write random numbers tot he drive from urandom? | 07:45 |
| Legendary_Bibo | shred -z / | 07:45 |
| dr_Willis | shred --help | 07:45 |
| Darkenvy | ps aux | grep java returns nothing | 07:45 |
| alexfpms | Darkenvy, you need terminate all processes that use java | 07:45 |
| GregAce | man shred too | 07:45 |
| powerof2 | what pkgs do i need for a minimal X windows install to send x traffic to a remote x11 server? | 07:45 |
| Darkenvy | I am not running anything | 07:45 |
| Darkenvy | this is a near fresh VPS | 07:46 |

| Legendary_Bibo | what about your root directory? | 07:47 |
| GregAce | Legendary_Bibo, hum ok, cheers | 07:47 |
| histo | GregAce: how bout dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sdx bs=8b | 07:47 |
| histo | GregAce: or /dev/zero | 07:47 |
| dr_Willis | why not just use /dev/zero | 07:47 |
| dr_Willis | then again - why be so paranoid? | 07:47 |
| Darkenvy | what is /dev/zero for again? | 07:47 |
| alexfpms | Darkenvy, there can be multiple installation | 07:47 |
| Darkenvy | this sounds familiar | 07:47 |
| GregAce | /dev/zero ? | 07:47 |
| dr_Willis | it prints out 00 00 00 00 :) | 07:48 |
| Darkenvy | I jsut rebooted my vps alexfpms | 07:48 |
| dr_Willis | vs /dev/null that prints out null's | 07:48 |
| GregAce | Not paranoid, a computer with important business data is sent to a warranty | 07:48 |
| histo | GregAce: something like dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdx bs=block size you want | 07:48 |
| alexfpms | Darkenvy, so now ? | 07:49 |
| histo | GregAce: then jsut write zeros to it | 07:49 |
| Darkenvy | OpenJDK was installed | 07:49 |
| dr_Willis | thers 'secure deletion' tools - that will help you sleep better | 07:49 |
| Darkenvy | so I purged that | 07:49 |
| histo | dr_Willis: not really more than urandom or zero's being written to it | 07:49 |
| GregAce | shred writes 25 times | 07:49 |
| Legendary_Bibo | shred -z /dev/sdxx | 07:49 |
| GregAce | (by default) | 07:49 |
| alexfpms | Darkenvy, and now ? | 07:49 |
| dr_Willis | i imagine theres a reason shred was written.. vs using d /dev/zero | 07:50 |
| GregAce | Legendary_Bibo, I'll try that thanks | 07:50 |
| Darkenvy | java -version returns 1.5.0 | 07:50 |
| histo | dr_Willis: shred uses /dev/zero or /dev/urandom | 07:50 |
| histo | dr_Willis: read the man pages | 07:50 |
| Darkenvy | this is utterly amazing | 07:50 |
| histo | GregAce: try somethign like shred /dev/sdx1 | 07:50 |
| dr_Willis | so you can replace shred with a shel script. :) | 07:50 |
| histo | GregAce: or where ever the disk is | 07:50 |
| Legendary_Bibo | java is a zombie | 07:50 |
| Darkenvy | help? | 07:51 |
| Darkenvy | I jsut want java 1.5.0 gone | 07:51 |

| Legendary_Bibo | then look for java, and see if it's in there | 07:52 |
| Darkenvy | when you aptitude search what do the p's mean? | 07:52 |
| Darkenvy | as well as v? | 07:52 |
| EastDallas | There's no way to really erase it all. I can tell you that my mom worked in a job where she dealt with government secrets, and if someone sent an email out that had sensitive info the resolution started out at format every machine that received the email, then was elevated to format each drive 3 times, then format 3 times and write zeros, and finally they just went to physically destroying the drives with a hammer. | 07:52 |
| GregAce | histo, 25 times by default | 07:53 |
| histo | EastDallas: GregAce yes there is a way and writing zeros more than once is just insane and pointless | 07:53 |

| EastDallas | Those standards progressively changed from the mid 90s up until she retired a few years ago. | 07:55 |
| Legendary_Bibo | I don't see java. It could just have been left behind in some file | 07:56 |
| EastDallas | You should've seen the trouble she got into for connecting a USB HDD to her work laptop... | 07:56 |
| Legendary_Bibo | Now try installing java again | 07:56 |
| histo | EastDallas: yeah when disks and files were tiny it may have made sense but not any more. | 07:56 |
| Legendary_Bibo | It takes forever just to do it once | 07:56 |
| histo | EastDallas: it's a common myth that recovery can be done with electron microscope etc.. with remenants of the magnetics. It's just not possible with todays technology. | 07:57 |
| EastDallas | I know there's a guy that sells a device to destroy drives with sensitive info. It's like one of those lever driven can crushers you might have in your garage for recycling aluminum cans but it has a spike. | 07:58 |
| dr_Willis | I got an Industural stregenth Demaganitizer.... | 07:58 |
| Legendary_Bibo | An ininerator will work | 07:58 |
| EastDallas | histo: I'm sure you're right. They are a lot cheaper to replace now anyway. | 07:58 |
| histo | I've found that 223 round does mighty well at destroying them. | 07:58 |

| Darkenvy | well a magnet has 2 poles bibo... | 07:59 |
| Darkenvy | one north and one south... | 07:59 |

| dr_Willis | a gui to do what _branden_ | 08:08 |
| dr_Willis | !info x264 | 08:08 |
| ubottu | x264 (source: x264): video encoder for the H.264/MPEG-4 AVC standard. In component universe, is optional. Version 2:0.106.1741-3 (natty), package size 495 kB, installed size 1228 kB | 08:09 |

| dr_Willis | winff/mencoder/fmpeg/handbrake, proberly a dozen oth4rs... | 08:09 |
| onetwo | i need help.every click on a symbol or menu button i hear that ubuntu sound of a drum...Please help me | 08:09 |
| _branden_ | I don't like the stock encoders fro ffmpeg, they are slow and proprietary. | 08:10 |
| _branden_ | fro = for | 08:10 |
| dr_Willis | onetwo try making a new user - see if it affects them also | 08:10 |
| onetwo | ok willis give me some seconds to test this.. | 08:10 |
| onetwo | willis it does | 08:11 |
| _branden_ | terminals are becoming an eye sore on my machine lately | 08:11 |
| tomek_ | how can i change permissions to make directory to be writable for uid 1000 ? | 08:11 |
| _branden_ | sore = sores | 08:11 |
| _branden_ | chmod tomek | 08:11 |
| dr_Willis | !permissions | tomek | 08:11 |
| ubottu | tomek: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 08:11 |
| djiefo | Legendary_Bibo, oh ok my friends have to choose the file themselves | 08:11 |
| tomek_ | branden : chmod but what next | 08:12 |
| djiefo | ? | 08:12 |
| onetwo | dr_Willis, i have found the problem..it was in audio settings the warning sound was somehow reactivated... | 08:12 |
| Legendary_Bibo | yeah I don't know if you can choose specific files. It just seems to access everything | 08:12 |
| djiefo | tomek_, chmod +x /home/username/filename | 08:12 |
| dr_Willis | for a specific user. you want to 'chown' it to be owned by them | 08:13 |
| dr_Willis | then set it to be writeable. | 08:13 |
| _branden_ | I don't like ffmpegs encoder for h.264 mostly the audio portion, because it is slow can only use one core and is proprietary. | 08:13 |
| === semitones is now known as sillytones | ||
| Legendary_Bibo | _branden_: there's nothing wrong with proprietary software. Literally, there's nothing wrong with it. There never has been, there never will be | 08:14 |
| dr_Willis | its gpl and properitary? nevernoticed.. then again. i just use winff and its presets | 08:14 |
| KatronixSerf | What is the configuration file called for Terminal? | 08:15 |
| Legendary_Bibo | .bashrc | 08:15 |
| KatronixSerf | thanks | 08:15 |
| Legendary_Bibo | there's several, but in Ubuntu, you can do all the configurations there | 08:16 |
| dr_Willis | .profile .bash_profile | 08:16 |
| brown_fern | tomek_: I don't know if you got this so I'm reposting. | 08:16 |
| thegoodcushion | Is there a 'netbook' edition of ubuntu any more? I have a small netbook with a tiny screen. | 08:17 |
| brown_fern | tomek_: Auslogics Disk Defrag, is, I believe, the program I just used a few weeks ago on a system and it worked perfectly, for a list of defrag applications, CLI and otherwise, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_defragmentation_software | 08:17 |
| Legendary_Bibo | thegodcushion: Ubuntu 11.04 | 08:17 |
| KatronixSerf | OK, actually I was looking for the file that tells it more about the gnome window dressing. ie: transparent background etc. | 08:17 |
| rypervenche | Actually, the encoder for H264, called x264, is under the GPL license. | 08:17 |
| thegoodcushion | Legendary_Bibo: okay, so there isn't a special netbook one? | 08:17 |
| Legendary_Bibo | they combined the netbook versionw ith the desktop | 08:17 |
| Legendary_Bibo | KatronixSerf, why can't you change that in profile preferences? | 08:18 |
| KatronixSerf | Legendary_Bibo, I want to set it back to the default, figured that would be the fastest way | 08:18 |
| thegoodcushion | Legendary_Bibo: How do I take the .iso file and put it on a USB key using Ubuntu on a different machine? | 08:19 |
| thegoodcushion | Legendary_Bibo: oh no wait, the website shows me how | 08:19 |

| DjKiDD | NTFS is usually a windows partition yes | 08:24 |
| june | thank you | 08:24 |
| june | is anyone partition expert here? | 08:25 |
| DjKiDD | i wouldnt say expert | 08:25 |
| june | but u know? | 08:25 |
| DjKiDD | yes | 08:25 |
| june | help me out | 08:25 |
| june | please | 08:25 |
| dr_Willis | state the problem... | 08:26 |
| june | i wanna remove extra partitions like | 08:26 |
| june | linux swaps | 08:26 |
| june | and openSUSE | 08:26 |
| KatronixSerf | for the gnome terminal, I want to set it back to the default, background, colors, etc, whats the best way? | 08:26 |
| dr_Willis | june use gparted to resize and make the parittions you need. | 08:27 |
| june | and i wanna extend linuxMINT to tale up space of openusse | 08:27 |
| Legendary_Bibo | search for a gnome-terminal default config file online and replace yours with it | 08:27 |
| june | okay i have it | 08:27 |
| myrmidette | june has this partition layout http://www.mediafire.com/imageview.php?quickkey=hrvd4v3x7x94nk7&thumb=6 | 08:27 |
| june | but i am scared | 08:27 |
| dr_Willis | june this is why you backup imporntant data. | 08:27 |
| myrmidette | he wants more space for linux mint | 08:27 |
| june | >.> | 08:27 |
| june | yes | 08:27 |
| june | i want only linux mint and windows 7 | 08:27 |
| dr_Willis | Or just reformat the exusting suse space and put you r/home/ on it. | 08:28 |
| june | idk | 08:28 |
| dr_Willis | thats rather trivial to do | 08:28 |
| Legendary_Bibo | backup and even if you horribly mess up with the ferocity of a thousand suns, you'll still be safe | 08:28 |
| june | lol | 08:28 |
| june | here | 08:28 |
| Zac12 | hi there, is there a way to reverse what the find command returns? | 08:28 |
| june | http://www.mediafire.com/imageview.php?quickkey=hrvd4v3x7x94nk7 | 08:28 |
| FloodBot1 | june: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 08:28 |
| Zac12 | i.e. i want to find all directories within a directory which does not contain a certain file | 08:28 |
| dr_Willis | zac12 reverse? | 08:28 |
| Zac12 | how would that be possible? | 08:28 |
| djiefo | Legendary_Bibo, when someone download something it upload it LIVE? | 08:29 |
| dr_Willis | !find tac | 08:29 |
| ubottu | Found: execstack, inputattach, kontact, libakonadi-contact4, libdevel-stacktrace-perl, libkontactinterface4, libmetacity-dev, libmetacity-private0, liboktetacore4, metacity (and 72 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=tac&searchon=names&suite=natty§ion=all | 08:29 |
| Legendary_Bibo | yeah, your computer has to be on and running Opera though | 08:29 |
| Zac12 | something like find -not -iname 'processed' | 08:29 |
| Zac12 | something like that | 08:29 |
| djiefo | Legendary_Bibo, ok | 08:29 |
| june | http://www.mediafire.com/imageview.php?quickkey=hrvd4v3x7x94nk7 | 08:29 |
| Legendary_Bibo | it's no different than having to run an ftp service | 08:29 |
| brown_fern | june: I like using gparted running from a live disk such as knoppix in "forensics" mode for my partitioning. | 08:29 |
| Zac12 | then it would return all files which aren't 'process' files | 08:29 |
| Zac12 | is that possible? | 08:29 |
| djiefo | Thats one of best feature ever! | 08:29 |
| dr_Willis | zac12 the reular expressions can take a 'inverse/not' option | 08:29 |
| june | i have installed mint | 08:29 |
| Zac12 | i need to learn more regex :D | 08:30 |
| dr_Willis | june technically - you should be seeking support in the mint chennals then | 08:30 |
| Legendary_Bibo | how do you reverse search results?? | 08:30 |
| june | i did | 08:30 |
| june | they sent me here >.> | 08:30 |
| kun | 怎么使用Xchart | 08:30 |
| june | dr_willis | 08:31 |
| Legendary_Bibo | damn mint people. They're useless | 08:31 |
| june | lol | 08:31 |
| drMike | sendmail is completely playing dead | 08:31 |
| dr_Willis | june they are wrong.. we dont techincally support mint.. You cxan proberly do all you want done with gparted. | 08:31 |
| june | yes | 08:31 |
| Jordan_U | !mint | june | 08:31 |
| ubottu | june: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 08:31 |
| drMike | I can sendmail out but cannot receive ? | 08:31 |
| Legendary_Bibo | we're not technically support | 08:31 |
| dr_Willis | sounds like yet another reson to not reccomend Mint | 08:31 |
| june | i want help in gparted only | 08:31 |
| dr_Willis | !gparted | 08:31 |
| ubottu | gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 08:31 |
| Jordan_U | june: Please pass on the fact that we don't support mint to whoever forwarded you here. | 08:32 |
| Legendary_Bibo | shut up ubottu | 08:32 |
| june | okay | 08:32 |
| june | :( | 08:32 |
| dr_Willis | best to use gparted from a live cd. | 08:32 |
| june | okay | 08:32 |
| june | ok | 08:32 |
| june | bye all | 08:32 |
| june | and thanks for ur support | 08:32 |
| Legendary_Bibo | yeah use gparted and delete the partitions then increas mint's parition. | 08:32 |
| june | okay | 08:32 |
| thegoodcushion | there's nothing wrong with running a 64-bit 11.04 on a netbook, right? The CPU can do 64-bit | 08:32 |
| Legendary_Bibo | nope | 08:32 |
| Jordan_U | Legendary_Bibo: Please stop insulting people and groups (and I am not reffering to your comment about ubottu). | 08:33 |
| dr_Willis | Not all netbooks are 64bit ;) | 08:33 |
| brown_fern | june: I'm trying to understand your layout, you have Windows 7 already installed and then a handful of Linux distributions? You want to remove the swap partition and others and reuse that space? | 08:33 |
| Legendary_Bibo | ubottu is a bot. It has no feelings | 08:33 |
| ubottu | Legendary_Bibo: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 08:33 |
| myrmidette | Legendary_Bibo, I love your comics | 08:33 |
| myrmidette | especially the one about linux terms | 08:33 |
| Legendary_Bibo | myrmidette: thanks, although I thought it sucked | 08:34 |
| Jordan_U | Legendary_Bibo: Exactly, which is why I was *not* reffering to your comment about ubottu but rather your comments about "mint people" and EastDallas. | 08:34 |
| V_ | Hi, which package do i need to run pure gnome session insteed openbox/gnome? | 08:35 |
| Legendary_Bibo | Jordan_U: Okay | 08:35 |
| Jordan_U | Legendary_Bibo: Thanks. | 08:36 |
| Legendary_Bibo | V_: Are you on Ubuntu? It shouldn't have Openbox components | 08:36 |
| myrmidette | Legendary_Bibo, what's wrong with mint? | 08:36 |
| dr_Willis | if you install openbox - i recall it adding a 'gnome-openbox' sessnin entry to gdm | 08:37 |
| Jordan_U | myrmidette: There is nothing wrong with mint, it is simply not supported in #ubuntu. | 08:37 |
| myrmidette | Jordan_U, mint IS ubuntu | 08:37 |
| myrmidette | except it's green | 08:37 |
| Legendary_Bibo | myrmidette: nothing, I was joking. Ubuntu people are said to be the worse for support because it's so easy, and mint is supposed to be easier, so I'm I was joking that they're even worse for support | 08:37 |
| Jordan_U | myrmidette: No, it is not. | 08:37 |
| dr_Willis | mint is based on ubuntu.. | 08:38 |
| Jordan_U | !mint | myrmidette | 08:38 |
| ubottu | myrmidette: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 08:38 |
| dr_Willis | but so is a dozen other unsupported spinoffs | 08:38 |
| Legendary_Bibo | Doesn't an unsupported spinoff still mean it's a derivative? | 08:38 |
| myrmidette | but it's completely compatible. over a year of using mint and four years of ubuntu I haven't seen a single thing that was different except some default applications/themes | 08:38 |
| dr_Willis | Ive found most unofficial deratives - very lacking in support... | 08:38 |
| V_ | Legendary_Bibo, yes ubuntu, i installed openbox just to try but now when i run gnome session it starts stuff defined in ~/.config/openbox.autostart.sh how can i change this | 08:39 |
| rypervenche | Linux Mint is very nice, and I now prefer it to Ubuntu. It is easier for beginners as well. | 08:39 |
| Jordan_U | Legendary_Bibo: Yes, nobody claimed it was not a derivative. Simply that it is not a *supported* derivative. | 08:39 |
| dr_Willis | v_ you dont want to use openbox? | 08:39 |
| myrmidette | I directed june from linux mint irc to here because there are smart people here who can explain how to use gparted | 08:39 |
| myrmidette | something I can't do | 08:39 |
| myrmidette | ok? | 08:39 |
| dr_Willis | gparted had some decent docs at its homepage i thouight. | 08:40 |
| Legendary_Bibo | V_: I know there's scripts floating around to fix that between KDE, Gnome, and XFCE, but I'm not sure about Openbox | 08:40 |
| Zac12 | dr_Willis: do you maybe know how i'd do a inverse find with regex? | 08:40 |
| Jordan_U | myrmidette: Please do not do so in the future. Mint is not supported here, and that will not change. | 08:40 |
| brown_fern | myrmidette: I would think that they, Ubuntu and Linux Mint, are close enough as it regards partitioning in a multi-*nix environment that questions could be answered here. | 08:40 |
| myrmidette | brown_fern, so do I | 08:41 |
| Legendary_Bibo | ditto, I've seen mint people here all the time | 08:41 |
| dr_Willis | zac12 - id have to go check some regular expression guides on google.. i got a book on regrexps also.. but i dont use the, that mch. | 08:41 |
| dr_Willis | Theres gettin to be a lot of 'vps' questions lately also... | 08:41 |
| Zac12 | dr_Willis: thanks, maybe someone else in the channel knows how? hehe i'm googling now | 08:41 |
| rsh | dr_Willis: which software skype version do i need to use with ubuntu hardy? the latest one they've reported is 2.2 beta. | 08:41 |
| Jordan_U | myrmidette: There is a gparted IRC channel, #gparted on irc.gnome.org. | 08:41 |
| myrmidette | Jordan_U, thanks | 08:42 |
| myrmidette | I didn't know that | 08:42 |
| Jordan_U | myrmidette: You're welcome. | 08:42 |
| dr_Willis | and ive seen some very weird vps changes to the standard ubuntu. | 08:42 |
| ntr0py | why does curl not output to stdout anymore? | 08:42 |
| Legendary_Bibo | dr_Willis how so? | 08:42 |
| V_ | Legendary_Bibo, i want use openbox when i want ;-) but when i run gnome i dont want openbox to load it's autostart files | 08:42 |
| ntr0py | how can I curl a location to stdout? | 08:43 |
| dr_Willis | every day i seem to see someone with root/sudo/java/other issues with their vps's - i wonder what the oofical stance on supporting them is. | 08:43 |
| dr_Willis | v_ so you are using openbox and openbox+gnome ? | 08:43 |
| Legendary_Bibo | V_: Oh check startup applications in System > Preferences > Startup Applications, and you may have to change file associations | 08:43 |
| Legendary_Bibo | I had to do that when I tried KDE | 08:44 |
| javier_ | Hi! I've got my laptop very slow and getting hot even my ubuntu instalation is quite fresh, and I would like to remove some innecessary services. Just I'm a bit new... someone could help me? | 08:46 |
| Legendary_Bibo | javier_: Go into the Terminal (Applications > Accessories > Terminal) then type in "top" without quotes and look at what services are using the most memory/cpu and copy and past their names, and we'll tell you if you can go without it. For one thing, you probably don't need Bluetooth, and you could stop that right away, and remove it from your startup applications as well | 08:49 |

| javier_ | Legendary_Bibo: i guess after I start a new session i will have everything back normal? | 08:58 |
| Legendary_Bibo | javier_: yeah. Whoops forgot to ask you if you running 11.04. It depends on Compiz. All you have to do is logout, and I think you can switch to Unity 2D, if not I would suggest using Gnome classic. When you logout there's a dropdown menu at the bottom on the login screen an you can change what desktop environment to use | 09:00 |

| [deXter] | Hi all, I've installed LXDE and I can't see any graphical ways to mount a removable drive (no icons show up on the desktop). Is this normal or am I supposed to run/install some program for auto-mounting? | 09:07 |
| Gorilla_No_Baka | quick question | 09:07 |
| dr_Willis | [deXter]: i thoiught the file manager handled that. | 09:08 |
| histo | [deXter]: I'm not sure if lxde has that capability built in but you may have to install a filemanager that handles mounting | 09:08 |
| Beast | hi! | 09:08 |
| [deXter] | dr_Willis: Yes but I don't see it in the file manager as well | 09:08 |
| dr_Willis | lxde uses pcmanfm i thought. I recall it automounting my flash drivces... | 09:08 |
| liid | That's strange. | 09:08 |
| [deXter] | histo: I'm having both nautilus and pcmanfm and both don't show my external drives.. | 09:08 |

| histo | [deXter]: or gvfs? | 09:10 |
| [deXter] | histo: Nope | 09:10 |
| histo | [deXter]: well there is your problem pcmanfs needs dbus or gvfs to do automounting. So pick one | 09:11 |

| [deXter] | histo: dbus start/running, process 850 | 09:12 |
| fr00d | I try to get my IEC958 soundchip work, but no sound appears. Can somebody help me to find the problem? | 09:12 |
| Gorilla_No_Baka | what am i doing wrong? | 09:12 |
| [deXter] | histo: Still nothing on fdisk -l or even dmesg | 09:12 |

| dr_Willis | [deXter]: you are using sudo fdisl -l | 09:13 |
| [deXter] | dr_Willis: yes | 09:13 |
| histo | [deXter]: what login manager are you using? | 09:13 |
| [deXter] | histo: GDM I think | 09:13 |
| dr_Willis | if fdisk -l, isent seeing the drives.. then i think you need to look at some lower level issues.. | 09:14 |

| [deXter] | I would have just used lubuntu, but it's still not updated to 11.04 .. | 09:14 |

| Gorilla_No_Baka | hey guys i have a little problem with the ndisgtk.. when i am loading the bcmwlhigh5 It shows "Hardware Present:NO" however i can connect to the internet as a matter of speaking i am using it right now..

| [deXter] | dr_Willis: Awesome, guess they were a bit late in bringing it out. | 09:15 |
| brown_fern | to all: I was just looking around the terminal and ran across "sensors" or "sensors --fahrenheit" as commands that seem to produce sensor temperature output, would this have told us how hot javier's system was getting, or am I off base? | 09:15 |
| [deXter] | brb, switching to gnome | 09:16 |
| dr_Willis | the lubuntu guys dont feel the need to be on time :) snce they are not yet an official variant.. but they are close. :0 | 09:16 |
| histo | brown_fern: not sure who javier is but lm-sensors will give you temps on some boards. Or acpi -t etc... | 09:17 |
| dr_Willis | I think the 64bit luubntu was remasteed by the 'pepermint' disto makers. | 09:17 |

| fr00d | blueonyx: root does not have all right. root is only able to give all rights to itself. | 10:10 |

| jinu | iceroot: thanks | 10:12 |
| iceroot | jinu: why not install the xen-kernel from the repos? | 10:12 |
| fr00d | curi0usm1nd: I had a look at audio-properties -> hardware. Theres is a interal audio device marked with digital stereo duplex (iec958). Therefore I think it's my default soundcard. | 10:13 |

| gul | nit-wit: thanks! | 11:27 |
| pingomatrix | i found the key ..it was Alt+Ctrl_Esc | 11:27 |
| nit-wit | gul, yes you need to have the sdc dive before the others in the bios and then reload grub to point at the sdc5 not sdc1, I can give you a link or the commands. | 11:27 |
| nit-wit | pingomatrix, hey | 11:28 |
| nit-wit | pingomatrix, you get the cd booted? | 11:28 |

| nit-wit | gul, If you want the sdc dive to boot the internal hd put the sdc first to be read in the bios and reload grub from a natty live cd with this link. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Copy%20LiveCD%20Files | 11:34 |

| djiefo | Alfil_Kamikaze, yes | 11:49 |
| sneumann | OerHeks, I myself have little-to no knowledge about either iptables nor ip6, but Ubuntu users (being often powerusers) could help spread the word | 11:49 |

| Kromgol | thegoodcushion, why won't "sudo apt-get install skype" work? | 11:57 |
| mknix | djiefo, does compiz 0.8.6 work with unity? | 11:57 |
| djiefo | weirdpercent, to install themes, u need to extract your downloaded theme to /home/usr/.theme | 11:57 |
| starZ | squid: mm.. sad.. :( | 11:58 |
| === darkstar is now known as DaRmAr | ||
| djiefo | weirdpercent, sudo apt-get install emerald for window decorations | 11:58 |
| weirdpercent | djiefo, ok then what program or interface selects and configures those themes? | 11:58 |
| djiefo | mknix, I dunno | 11:58 |
| Kromgol | thegoodcushion, it's generally not recommended to download tarballs and compile it on your own due to you having no way to track the package if you ever want to uninstall it for example. Especially if it's available in the reps. | 11:58 |
| djiefo | weirdpercent, don't need programs, well depends wich theme you want to install... | 11:59 |
| klown | I am having an issue with my display. I cannot see the top, and bottom task bars completely. I have tried editing the DPI setting in my xorg.conf, but it doesnt seem to do anything. Any ideas? | 12:00 |

| Alfil_Kamikaze | any qq help?? | 12:00 |
| djiefo | weirdpercent, u can't drag and drop themes | 12:01 |
| djiefo | weirdpercent, you need to extract the Theme file in /home/usr/.theme | 12:01 |
| LekeFly | What should i use to format a disk i need to boot from usb and wipe the disk | 12:02 |
| djiefo | and it will make your new theme appearing in appearance | 12:02 |
| rileyp | Is diskless working in lucid | 12:02 |
| Kromgol | LekeFly, gparted. | 12:02 |
| LekeFly | Kromgol: thanks | 12:02 |
| Kromgol | LekeFly, either the livecd or when you're on Ubuntu. But you can't format mounted partitions. | 12:02 |
| djiefo | klown, ur in gnome? | 12:02 |
| weirdpercent | djiefo, so all those .deb packages in the natty package pool that I downloaded are useless and need to be extracted to ~/.themes? that doesn't make any sense | 12:02 |
| klown | djiefo, yes | 12:02 |

| klown | djiefo, I can slightly see the bars, so I know its a resolution/DPI issue, but I do not know how to fix it. | 12:05 |
| weirdpercent | djiefo, I used to use gnome-appearance-properties but that application doesn't seem to be in natty narwhal | 12:06 |
| Laftur | heywo? | 12:06 |
| djiefo | klown, happenned to me earlier... we have to just wait maybe.. lol | 12:06 |
| klown | djiefo, wait for what? | 12:07 |
| djiefo | klown, for the bars to come back | 12:07 |
| klown | djiefo, the bars are not gone..they are just hidden due to a horrible resolution. | 12:08 |
| thegoodcushion_ | How do I install skype? | 12:08 |
| Kromgol | thegoodcushion_, you may need to enable the canonical third-party repositories as Skype isn't open source | 12:08 |
| thegoodcushion_ | 11.04, multiverse selected | 12:08 |
| Alfil_Kamikaze | how can i setup qq?? | 12:08 |
| thegoodcushion_ | Kromgol, you mean the canonical partners thingy? | 12:08 |
| Kromgol | Yes. | 12:08 |
| klown | djiefo, nvidia is not picking up a resolution that will show the entire screen. | 12:08 |

| blz | hello! how do I make a subdirectory of name X in a bunch of subdirectories (all of which are contained within the same parent directory) ? | 12:10 |
| thegoodcushion_ | Kromgol, still can't see it | 12:10 |
| weirdpercent | so does -anyone- know what happened to gnome-appearance-properties or what it has been replaced with in natty? | 12:10 |
| Kromgol | thegoodcushion_, just type "sudo apt-get install skype" and see if that works. | 12:11 |
| Alfil_Kamikaze | where can i get help for qq? | 12:11 |
| thegoodcushion_ | Kromgol, okay, no, it's good. I had to enable Canonical Partners in Software Update (not Software Sources) | 12:12 |
| djiefo | Alfil_Kamikaze, #pidgin | 12:12 |
| Kromgol | Mkay. | 12:12 |
| Pici | weirdpercent: I'm not using Unity here, but I have that on my Natty install. | 12:13 |
| Alfil_Kamikaze | thanks djiefo, but anyone answer in #pidgin | 12:13 |
| weirdpercent | pici, I know unity has taken over everything in a way, but I'm currently using the gnome classic desktop in natty | 12:13 |
| weirdpercent | pici, and I can't get rid of the plain old theme | 12:14 |
| djiefo | Alfil_Kamikaze, ask your question directly, don't ask to ask for help :) | 12:14 |
| Pici | weirdpercent: As am I. gnome-appearance-properties is part of the gnome-control-center package, which is installed by default on a normal Ubuntu desktop install. | 12:14 |
| livcd | Anyone know how do i turn off compiz compositor | 12:15 |
| livcd | Ubuntu classic | 12:15 |
| bullgard4 | On my T43: '~$ aplay ~/.irssi/sounds/beep_1.au; Playing Sparc Audio '~/.irssi/sounds/beep_1.au' : Mu-Law, Rate 8000 Hz, Mono.' The same command on my Thinkpad T42 generates the same console output but why does it not produce an audible sound? | 12:15 |
| bullgard4 | Looking at AlsaMixer, only the "Mic Boost (+20db)" and "Aux" controls are shown muted. | 12:15 |
| weirdpercent | appearance does not show up in my control center | 12:15 |
| livcd | They removed effects manipulation from Appearance | 12:16 |
| livcd | damn ! | 12:16 |
| weirdpercent | livcd, you could run metacity --replace | 12:16 |
| Pici | weirdpercent: Can you run it manually? | 12:16 |
| c4pt | i am having problems setting up nfs i was wondering if someone could help me | 12:16 |
| livcd | weirdpercent: i do..but permanently | 12:16 |
| weirdpercent | pici, if I know the name of the application, but it surely is not gnome-appearance-properties | 12:17 |
| Pici | weirdpercent: It is here. | 12:17 |
| livcd | Pici: lol | 12:18 |
| weirdpercent | livcd, compositing is part of compiz AFAIK, you can't turn it off | 12:18 |
| livcd | Pici: in my language your nick means "vagina" | 12:18 |
| Pici | livcd: It means nothing in english. | 12:18 |

| klown | I am having an issue with my display. I cannot see the top, and bottom task bars completely. I have tried editing the DPI setting in my xorg.conf, but it doesnt seem to do anything. Any ideas? | 12:19 |
| livcd | weirdpercent: you can completely replace it with metacity...but where they moved this option ? | 12:19 |
| weirdpercent | livcd, I always heard compiz referred to as a "compositing window manager" | 12:20 |
| coz_ | klown, did you check the monitor controls? | 12:20 |
| klown | coz_, I'm using a 32inch tv as my monitor | 12:20 |

| sveinse | mollonado: No, lvm is unfortunately not installed on the ubuntu 11.04 desktop installer CD | 12:20 |
| bullgard4 | klown: Use xrandr. And count the pixels manually. | 12:20 |
| coz_ | klown, oh I see | 12:20 |
| weirdpercent | livcd, try apt-get install fusion-icon | 12:20 |

| IanLiu | When I install ubuntu, does it keeps a log of the partition table after partitioning? If yes, where? | 12:24 |
| klown | ugh. this is so annoying. the same combo works in windows just fine. its not a tv/video card issue, its an X config issue somewhere, I just dont know how to fix it. | 12:24 |

| livcd | coz_: no i wont install anything unnecessery | 12:24 |

| livcd | its is overheating my GPU which is 8600GT | 12:24 |

| rileyp | IanLiu use fdisk /dev/sda if thats your disk then press p to bring up the parttiton table of that disk | 12:25 |

| rileyp | or it maybe m lol | 12:25 |

| livcd | compiz is default | 12:27 |
| livcd | as compositor | 12:27 |
| IanLiu | rileyp: I know, but I've screwed with my partition table, and now I would like to recover. Thats why I needed the original ;-) | 12:27 |
| coz_ | livcd, "dedicated" can be a bit misleading,,, so I am assuming you meant an "on the motherboard" video ...yes? | 12:27 |

| livcd | missing that :S | 12:28 |
| weirdpercent | livcd, uninstall compiz however you installed it, then from home directory type git clone git://anongit.compiz.org/users/soreau/scripts | 12:28 |
| coz_ | livcd, that is not really necessary,, just install compizconfig-settings-manager ,, it is a very small dialog | 12:28 |
| weirdpercent | livcd, then cd scripts and run ./build_compiz++ | 12:28 |
| rileyp | IanLiu: I dont know then sorry | 12:28 |
| IanLiu | rileyp: thanks | 12:29 |
| weirdpercent | livcd, that will build compiz 9.x from scratch for your system, then run the scripts to build all of the addons | 12:30 |

| LekeFly | I have a disk with dual boot ubuntu and windows and im trying to format it but whatever i do it seems GRUB doesnt let me boot from any other USB.. what to do? | 12:30 |
| weirdpercent | livcd, that should give you full compiz functionality | 12:30 |
| livcd | i dont want to use compiz | 12:30 |
| coz_ | livcd, are you using Unity or classic? | 12:30 |
| livcd | coz_: classic | 12:30 |
| weirdpercent | livcd, you want to use metacity? | 12:31 |
| livcd | weirdpercent: didnt i say it is overheating my desktop and make it to crash ? | 12:31 |
| livcd | sure | 12:31 |
| coz_ | livcd, ok ,, if that video chip is soldered onto the motherboard,, the only reason it would overheat is if it is not being cooled properly,,, | 12:31 |
| livcd | coz_: its old and damaged :D | 12:31 |
| weirdpercent | livcd, then add a metacity --replace to your .bashrc | 12:32 |
| coz_ | livcd, ah ,, is it unreliabley damaged? | 12:32 |
| YankDownUnder | ...you should be able to simply change the window manager in the gconf settings.... | 12:32 |
| coz_ | livcd, and are you having other video issues? | 12:32 |
| livcd | coz_: no :) | 12:32 |
| coz_ | metacity compositor should start by default | 12:33 |
| coz_ | at least here it does | 12:33 |
| rileyp | usb will be boted before grub if its set as a boot option you may need to hit a key for boots options screens or enable usb bott in bios | 12:33 |
| livcd | compiz is used as default when proprietary drivers are used | 12:33 |
| weirdpercent | livcd, apt-get install galternatives, then find the entry for x-window-manager and make metacity the default | 12:33 |
| coz_ | livcd, right | 12:33 |
| coz_ | livcd, but not if you use "classic ( no effects) then you can install the drivers | 12:34 |
| livcd | weirdpercent: i wont install anything that is not right way .0 | 12:34 |
| livcd | coz_: ah sure | 12:34 |
| livcd | forget it | 12:34 |

| kleopatra | flash doesnt work properly anymore in my firefox | 12:44 |
| coz_ | kleopatra, what is happening ... | 12:44 |
| maxim_641 | Is it advised I install the updates proposed by update manager or will that slow down my computer (kind of oldish) | 12:45 |
| iceroot | maxim_641: its always a good idea to install sec-updates | 12:45 |
| coz_ | kleopatra, it is a bit "kludgy" | 12:45 |
| livcd | kleopatra: the best way to use flash is not to use it | 12:45 |
| poiensle | livcd: lol | 12:45 |
| maxim_641 | just the important security then? | 12:45 |
| kleopatra | coz: it flickers and it dowesnt display the whole scene anymore and the worst, i cant access the "options" anymore eg volume or the slider with the time | 12:45 |
| weirdpercent | yoghrt, if you used the program I'm thinking of, and copied your entire home directory (including all hidden dirs) and copied your entire /etc dir, that would probably do it | 12:45 |
| weirdpercent | yoghrt, can't guarantee it would work perfectly though | 12:46 |
| coz_ | kleopatra, ooo that sounds worse than it is here,, open a terminal ... lets see if there is an update sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 12:46 |

| powerbuddy | Does anybody have a netbook and satisfied with Ubuntu? | 12:47 |
| weirdpercent | kleopatra, it should automatically select the best flash package for your system and install it | 12:47 |
| livcd | weirdpercent: so it installs html5 ? :O | 12:48 |
| coz_ | powerbuddy, I do not,, is it not working properly? | 12:48 |
| MonkeyDust | livcd: did you try my hint for compiz? | 12:48 |
| powerbuddy | no coz cannot suspend or hibernate | 12:48 |
| livcd | MonkeyDust: i just switched to classic without effects :D...but thanks | 12:48 |
| weirdpercent | livcd, afaik html5 doesn't work in firefox yet, only google chrome | 12:49 |

| livcd | weirdpercent: rlly ? | 12:49 |

| zvacet | phrearch: yes, install pae kernel from synaptic | 12:52 |
| weirdpercent | livcd, youtube can use html5 or "classic flash" video, so firefox can work with youtube, but html5 is still mostly a google chrome thing | 12:52 |

| petrolman | Hi, I want to check a windows 7 system for virures with linux. So I started to load Ubuntu from a Live-CD (Ubuntu 10.04 LTS) and install clamtk. Then I started it with gksu clamtk, clicked in the scan menu on "rekursive can". The problem is that the windows disk is not listed, why? | 12:52 |
| phrearch | i will give it a try | 12:53 |
| phrearch | thanks! | 12:53 |
| livcd | weirdpercent: it is working for most video sites | 12:53 |
| zvacet | phrearch: I don't know what do you mean I use it without any problem | 12:53 |
| livcd | like vimeo etc | 12:53 |
| phrearch | zvacet: sounds good to me | 12:53 |
| weirdpercent | livcd, do they all use html5 by default? | 12:53 |
| weirdpercent | I think not | 12:53 |
| zvacet | :) | 12:53 |
| verbal_ | hello | 12:53 |
| coz_ | petrolman, off hand not sure,, however,, be careful with clamav on a windows system,, it has, from experience removed critical libraries from the windows install | 12:54 |
| weirdpercent | it's still to early of a technology for everybody to adopt it | 12:54 |
| MonkeyDust | petrolman: use fdisk to find the /dev for windoze, then mount that /dev | 12:54 |
| livcd | weirdpercent: thats problem when you can switch ? | 12:54 |
| thegoodcushion | is there any inbuilt command line program that can play a .wav? | 12:54 |

| weirdpercent | livcd, when youtube started using html5 for videos, they allowed you to select which technology you wanted to view videos with so that browsers that didnt' yet support html5 could still use youtube | 12:55 |
| coz_ | thegoodcushion, http://www.linux.com/archive/feed/53095 | 12:55 |

| === jimi__ is now known as jimi_ | ||

| Psydoll | whats the difference between the ubuntu software center and Gdebi package installer? | 14:32 |
| yeshellothere | 2.6.38-9-generic-pae #43-Ubuntu for example | 14:32 |
| iceroot | phrearch: pae is the default 32bit kernel in the server-edition | 14:32 |

| yeshellothere | Psydoll: one searches the repositories for you, one installs packages directly | 14:32 |

| shirow1 | any ideas? | 14:32 |
| phrearch | iceroot: ah ok thanks. i have the desktop edition, so i guess its not enabled by default | 14:33 |
| Psydoll | yeshellothere: the ubuntu software center can also install .deb packages from what i know aswell as search for them | 14:33 |
| yeshellothere | phrearch: i doubt it, i use them locally with no obvious issues | 14:33 |
| phrearch | just reinstalled | 14:33 |
| iceroot | phrearch: correct | 14:33 |

| bobo | jpds, i somehow can't find the sudoers file but can it be somehere else, btw i have Debian system | 14:33 |

| KM0201 | ActionParsnip: oh trust me, i caught your point.. thats why i chuckled. | 15:08 |
| rcconf | is there a way to reinstall a wireless driver? | 15:08 |
| niquetameeeeeeee | AIIIIIIIIE | 15:08 |
| ray_ | so i have an image of the latest ubuntu. how do i do this? | 15:08 |
| ray_ | ActionParsnip, Pici ? | 15:08 |
| rcconf | because I applied a patch | 15:08 |
| niquetameeeeeeee | you suck, i say what do you do, ok? | 15:08 |
| peter__ | I boot 2.6.38-8-generic-pae from the grub loader and it starts displaying a bunch of starting and stopping of processes, but stops and does nothing after showing "stopping userspace bootsplash" | 15:08 |
| niquetameeeeeeee | niquetameeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere | 15:08 |
| ActionParsnip | ray_: MD5 test the image, then burn to CD or use USB. It's no different to when you installed Jaunty | 15:09 |
| ray_ | ActionParsnip, Pici ? i have dual boot so if i mount it from inside windows and install it will i have automatic backup? | 15:09 |
| niquetameeeeeeee | burn intnse energy ! | 15:09 |
| niquetameeeeeeee | intense$ | 15:09 |
| ray_ | oh so normal install will take care of the backup ? correct ? ActionParsnip | 15:09 |
| niquetameeeeeeee | intense$ | 15:09 |

| KM0201 | peter__: is this a live cd/USB, or an actual install? | 15:09 |
| niquetameeeeeeee | burn intense energy ! | 15:09 |
| ActionParsnip | ray_: automatic backup isn't default. If you used wubi, then boot to windows and uninstall wubi nd delete the Wubi image | 15:09 |
| tkteun_ | ActionParsnip: So what would you use to configure your network? (I'm on a laptop, need dynamic configuration) | 15:09 |
| KM0201 | nevermind, i see you said grub. | 15:10 |
| ray_ | ActionParsnip, nah i used a cd last time when i unstalled | 15:10 |
| angel278 | rumpe1: so in theory you can create different account on Ubuntu and run from each account Transmission instance? | 15:10 |
| ray_ | ActionParsnip, installed | 15:10 |
| peter__ | KM0201: it's an actual install - I first installed maverick from a cd and upgraded recently to natty | 15:10 |
| ActionParsnip | tkteun_: on desktops I use the interfaces file, on my laptop I use wicd | 15:10 |
| rumpe1 | angel278, i think so | 15:10 |
| ActionParsnip | ray_: then boot to the CD and delete the current partitions then install the OS to the free space | 15:11 |
| ActionParsnip | ray_: obviously ONLY remove the Ubuntu partitions | 15:11 |
| ray_ | ActionParsnip, ok how do i do an upgrade with a usb drive ? | 15:11 |
| yeshellothere | LekeFly: oh sorry i went for lunch | 15:11 |
| ray_ | ActionParsnip, i will lose my home folder and other global src, bins i was using... there is another user for this system he will kill me | 15:11 |
| ray_ | ActionParsnip, any scope/option for a fresh install which takes care of the old data ? backups etc | 15:12 |
| ActionParsnip | ray_: you should have a backup of what you need | 15:12 |
| ray_ | aaah... i dont have space anywhere man ActionParsnip | 15:13 |
| ray_ | damn ... i hate this situation | 15:13 |
| ActionParsnip | ray_: so what if your drive motor fails? | 15:13 |
| livcd | ray_: what are you trying to do ? | 15:13 |
| ray_ | ActionParsnip, never experienced that .... touch wood | 15:13 |
| rcconf | ActionParsnip: how do I reinstall a wireless driver? I applied a patch long time ago but I would like to "restore" the driver | 15:13 |
| ActionParsnip | ray_: it can though and eventually will | 15:13 |
| ActionParsnip | rcconf: not sure, try asking the channel | 15:14 |
| livcd | ray_: what happend ? | 15:14 |
| LekeFly | yeshellothere: Oh.. any idea what might cause a flashing _ on a fresh 11.04 install? It was formated but it was running windows and 10.10 before.. | 15:14 |
| === francisco is now known as Guest52620 | ||
| ActionParsnip | ray_: where is your data then | 15:14 |
| rcconf | #ubuntu: how do I reinstall a wireless driver? I applied a patch long time ago but I would like to "restore" the driver | 15:14 |
| ray_ | livcd, i m trying to upgrade directly from ubuntu 9.04 ... without having to go through all releases(updates) | 15:14 |
| MagicJ | I have done an install from a known good usb stick - all went as normalbut after it said setting up users it went to the kive cd sign on menu - it seems that the boot loader was not written - how do I write that block | 15:14 |
| ActionParsnip | LekeFly: in short, user has Jaunty and is wanting to clean install but has no backup for some bizarre reason | 15:14 |
| doqukan | hi | 15:14 |
| BluesKaj | ray_, upgrade , how? | 15:14 |
| LekeFly | ActionParsnip: huh? | 15:15 |
| ray_ | ActionParsnip, my main ubuntu drive... its obviously not a govt data... but i have another user using this system. so i would like to clone these settings in a direct update | 15:15 |
| ActionParsnip | LekeFly: that is ray's situation | 15:15 |
| ActionParsnip | ray_: then you will need to step p release by release, it'sgoing to take a long time | 15:15 |
| LekeFly | ActionParsnip: a flashing _ ? i dont understand why you highligted me :p | 15:15 |
| ray_ | ActionParsnip, oh ! man | 15:16 |
| BluesKaj | ray_, best to back up your data firstr then do a clean install, it won't work goin directly from 9.04 to 11.04 thru the net upgrade method | 15:16 |
| livcd | ray_: shouldnt it work by just using nattys repo ? | 15:16 |
| yeshellothere | LekeFly: it's an interesting question | 15:16 |
| doqukan | d | 15:16 |
| doqukan | sa | 15:16 |
| yeshellothere | LekeFly: when does it give you a _ | 15:16 |
| ray_ | ActionParsnip, can i not just upgrade my kernel and fool ubuntu somehow | 15:16 |
| ActionParsnip | LekeFly: you were asking ray_ what was going on, so I told you.... | 15:16 |
| LekeFly | yeshellothere: straight after bios | 15:16 |
| ray_ | in the upgrades | 15:16 |
| ActionParsnip | ray_: youo can but its not advised or supported in any way | 15:17 |
| klown | ActionParsnip, it was livcd who was asking | 15:17 |
| yeshellothere | LekeFly: these are all potential symptoms of a dead hard drive or bad SATA cables | 15:17 |
| ActionParsnip | klown: d'oh | 15:17 |
| yeshellothere | LekeFly: if you get into grub, hit 'e' and remove any 'quiet' lines from the kernel boot line | 15:17 |
| ActionParsnip | LekeFly: mis-directed dude, sorry | 15:17 |
| yeshellothere | that should print out SATA errors if you're getting them | 15:17 |
| yeshellothere | LekeFly: i assume this is a bitcoin rig then? | 15:17 |
| LekeFly | yeshellothere: hmm.. how would i get into grub? | 15:17 |
| LekeFly | yea | 15:17 |
| livcd | ray_: should work that way | 15:18 |
| yeshellothere | LekeFly: there's a button to press when it boots | 15:18 |
| yeshellothere | also you know there's a bitcoin livecd miner | 15:18 |
| yeshellothere | that might be worth your time | 15:18 |
| peter__ | KM0201: it's an actual install - I first installed maverick from a cd and upgraded recently to natty | 15:18 |
| ray_ | man ubuntu doesn't work like other linux distros where u can just do this file by file ? full os version has to be upgraded? sounds like windows | 15:18 |
| ActionParsnip | ray_: the upgrade also upgrades the apps | 15:18 |
| klown | I am having an issue with my display. I am using a 32inch tv as my monitor, connected to a nvidia gtx 260 video card, the issue i am having is I cannot see my taskbars fully, only a small portion of them, so i know that they are there. Here is a few logs with some info I have found so far. http://pastebin.com/UgvxGDGZ Any help would be greatly appreciated. | 15:18 |
| ActionParsnip | ray_: its not a rolling released | 15:18 |
| yeshellothere | ray_: there are significant differences between different ubuntu releases | 15:18 |
| ray_ | and that too just because i want to use ssh.... thats not cool | 15:18 |
| yeshellothere | if you want to do it file by file, install Linux From Scratch | 15:18 |
| ray_ | yeshellothere, i will lose my data, home folders then | 15:19 |
| ActionParsnip | ray_: debian is a rolling release distro | 15:19 |
| livcd | ray_: or could you upgrade from livcd | 15:19 |
| yeshellothere | ray_: i'm not sure exactly what your problem is | 15:19 |
| yeshellothere | if you want a fresh install, just move /home to /home.old | 15:19 |
| yeshellothere | back up any configs | 15:19 |
| yeshellothere | install ubuntu without formatting your drive | 15:19 |
| ray_ | yeah i guess debian... but in the future... for now i guess i 'll just do release by release | 15:19 |
| ActionParsnip | ray_: you could boot to live CD, then simply delete all the folders except /home then install to the space. The fact you don't have backup is frankly dumbfounding | 15:19 |
| yeshellothere | set up your environment and copy your stuff back | 15:19 |
| mattltm-alt | Hi all :) | 15:20 |
| ray_ | damn ssh... any alternative for ssh ? | 15:20 |
| yeshellothere | yeah i'm with ActionParsnip | 15:20 |
| yeshellothere | backups are #1 | 15:20 |
| ActionParsnip | ray_: you will learn the hard way I guess. I've painted my "I told you so" sign already ;) | 15:20 |
| yeshellothere | ray_: why would you want an alternative to ssh? | 15:20 |
| LekeFly | yeshellothere: say i want to wipe the HDD to fabric state.. how would i do that? | 15:20 |
| Grootstyr | Debian itself is not an rolling release is it | 15:20 |
| yeshellothere | LekeFly: 'fabric state'? | 15:20 |
| KM0201 | peter__: googlin that error, turns up a bug report, but it looks like there was a fix released | 15:20 |
| LekeFly | yeshellothere: Tryed another SATA cable now.. same _ | 15:20 |
| yeshellothere | Grootstyr: it essentially is | 15:20 |
| KM0201 | so i really am not sure. | 15:20 |
| livcd | LekeFly: there is tool for that | 15:20 |
| MagicJ | ray_: putty | 15:20 |
| LekeFly | yeshellothere: Well completely whipped | 15:20 |
| Grootstyr | yeshellothere, still enough differences between 5 and 6 and so on. | 15:20 |
| peter__ | KM0201: awesome thanks | 15:20 |
| ray_ | ActionParsnip, well backup ? i dont have that important documents.. and space is a big problem. | 15:20 |
| yeshellothere | LekeFly: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/harddriveaddress will do it, but be careful | 15:21 |
| yeshellothere | Grootstyr: such as? | 15:21 |
| ray_ | MagicJ, putty ? | 15:21 |
| yeshellothere | the change to dependency boot is the only thing i can think of | 15:21 |
| KM0201 | peter__: dunno, maybe try a clean install of natty, if you dn't have a lot invested in your maverick install. | 15:21 |
| yeshellothere | and that's carried out as part of normal package install | 15:21 |
| LekeFly | yeshellothere: To bad i cant get into any of the machines :p | 15:21 |
| yeshellothere | LekeFly: indeed | 15:21 |
| LekeFly | yeshellothere: They wont boot from usb aswell.. | 15:21 |
| mattltm-alt | Ive got an issue with an upgrade. Can anyone point me in the right direction to solving it?? | 15:21 |
| Grootstyr | yeshellothere, didn't know that, but rolling releases are prettier anyways. | 15:21 |
| yeshellothere | LekeFly: ok | 15:21 |
| yeshellothere | LekeFly: you need to start stripping them down | 15:21 |
| peter__ | KM0201: from a cd? and that'd wipe my ubuntu partition right? | 15:21 |
| yeshellothere | pull out all but one graphics card | 15:21 |
| yeshellothere | all but one stick of ram | 15:22 |
| yeshellothere | all hard drives, especially any IDE | 15:22 |
| ray_ | alternative for ssh other than open ssh. i just want to install/use ssh. thats it . this much is a lot of pain for that. | 15:22 |
| yeshellothere | then boot from USB | 15:22 |
| yeshellothere | see what happens | 15:22 |
| livcd | ray_: you should be able to compile it | 15:22 |
| yeshellothere | ray_: oh you haven't got an sshd on the machine, and you can't install one because your version is too old? | 15:22 |
| Pici | ray_: You can use http://old-releases.ubuntu.com if you *need* to install one package, but you really should upgrade. | 15:22 |
| KM0201 | peter__: well, yes, that was what i was suggesting... download/burn 11.04 and install it, rather than trying to upgrade.. the bug suggests something in the upgrade didn't finish.. so i'm not real sure how easy it would be to go back and fix. | 15:22 |
| LekeFly | yeshellothere: if i try to boot from usb it just gives me the bios no bootable message without any HDD | 15:22 |
| Grootstyr | ray_ what is wrong with openssh | 15:22 |
| ray_ | just because ive lost official support shouldn't mean i can use open ssh ? | 15:22 |
| yeshellothere | yeah just about to say what Pici said | 15:22 |
| coco | hey everyone | 15:22 |
| ray_ | can i not get src for it and build it? | 15:22 |
| LekeFly | yeshellothere: With just one stick of ram and one gpu | 15:22 |
| yeshellothere | LekeFly: oh well just use a CD then | 15:22 |
| livcd | ray_: sure u can ! :) | 15:22 |
| yeshellothere | ray_: you can, but Pici's suggestion is best | 15:23 |
| yeshellothere | you'll be able to find the old packages suitable for your version | 15:23 |
| === Guest53565 is now known as jbache | ||

| YankDownUnder | alex______, Is there a reason why the Win7 machine can't access the wireless on the router along with the Ubuntu box? | 15:49 |
| alex______ | no wifi-card in the desktop and the router is to long from the computer | 15:50 |
| jnlsnl_ | how can i make a file executable for sudo only ? | 15:50 |
| YankDownUnder | alex______, Ok...roger that...just curious. | 15:50 |
| ikonia | jnlsnl_: change the permissions to be owned by root | 15:51 |
| alex______ | only have a 3m cable right now and was hoping to solve it untill i get a permanent solution | 15:51 |
| jnlsnl_ | ikonia do you remember the chmod numbers? :) | 15:51 |
| th0r | jnlsnl_: and remove executable from everyone but the owner | 15:51 |
| vid7613 | alex______: wireless lan in infrastructure mode cannot be bridged | 15:51 |
| vid7613 | alex______: you could set up dhcp/routing/masquerading on the ubuntu machine | 15:51 |
| Pici | jnlsnl_: You don't need to use the numbers. chmod go-x filename | 15:52 |
| ikonia | jnlsnl_: 700 works | 15:52 |
| luist | is there any app that i can use to compact LHA? | 15:53 |
| YankDownUnder | lha's are already compacted - however, you could unpack it, then do a tar.bz2 instead...might make the package a bit smaller... | 15:54 |
| jnlsnl_ | ikonia the file is now chmod to 700 but still not executable by admin | 15:54 |
| cara | Good Morning all | 15:54 |
| cara | I just updated to 11.04 and I don't like the menu being on the side and hidden. Call me an old fart, but I like it like it was.. How do I get it back to the old Gnome menu across the top of the desktop | 15:55 |
| th0r | ikonia: if he uses 700, is the file executable using sudo? I think he might need 750 | 15:55 |
| YankDownUnder | cara, You can literally blow away Unity and then tweak Gnome3 to be basically like Gnome2.... | 15:56 |
| cara | so that's something called Unity? | 15:56 |
| * cara must look into this new fangled thing | 15:56 | |
| Pici | !classic | cara | 15:57 |
| ubottu | cara: The default interface in Ubuntu 11.04 is !Unity. To switch back to regular !GNOME: log out, click your username, click the Session box at the bottom of the screen, and select "Ubuntu Classic". | 15:57 |
| YankDownUnder | Unity is what Ubu now uses for the GUI interface...makes everything like a mobile phone - sux, really. | 15:57 |

| p896gbm2 | cipher_: it looks like cpufreq may have only changed the first cpu. is there a way to tell cpufreq-set to affect all cpus, or do i seriously have to run it six times? | 17:13 |
| p896gbm2 | cipher_: also, why does the ondemand scaling not work properly? it should just spin up when i do something processor intensive | 17:13 |

| unhackmee | wildgoose: im sorry the result should 've been "xrandr: cannot find mode "1280x1024" | 17:15 |

| llutz | !checkinstall | Psydoll | 17:17 |
| ubottu | Psydoll: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 17:17 |

| ActionParsnip | Guest30237: what chip does it use? | 17:19 |
| cipher_ | sagi, you're in the wrong directory, or if it doesn't have a makefile, can't be made? | 17:19 |

| pinoyoragon | ActionParsnip: after trying blargg's suggestion, heres the output http://paste.ubuntu.com/620063/ | 17:21 |
| llutz | cipher_: most are called "Makefile", so no :) | 17:21 |
| sagi | llutz, cipher_ no its still showing no makefile found | 17:21 |

| sagi | But there is one i go to the folder mentioned | 17:21 |
| cipher_ | llutz: "make" will find makefile... | 17:21 |
| ActionParsnip | pinoyoragon: you may need to use testdisk to define the original partition(s) on the device, or you can use foremost to extract data from the raw drive | 17:21 |
| ddilinger | is it possible to see how long a particular process has been running(not cpu time, but real time) ? | 17:22 |

| llutz | sagi: run "./configure" | 17:23 |
| sagi | llutz, cipher_ The directory i am specifying has two files Makefile.in and Makefile.am | 17:23 |

| ActionParsnip | cordoval: how do you mean? | 17:24 |
| ActionParsnip | pinoyoragon: testdisk will make the partitions, you can then fsck. Personally I'd just restore from backup | 17:24 |

| Oraiz | Hi all - I've been playing around with Ubuntu 11.04 installed through Wubi on Win7 and I've installed 'Macbuntu' for fun, however when I try to go in to compiz config settings manager, there is a blank screen in the 'animations' section. Any ideas? Thanks. | 17:44 |

| ikonia | Psydoll: what ar eyou trying to install | 17:46 |
| llutz | Psydoll: the steps to compile it, should be shown in one of those files. | 17:46 |
| ikonia | cordoval: what happens if you do "sudo apt-get update" ? | 17:46 |
| pinoyoragon | ActionParsnip: none... actually this is my friend's USB flash drive | 17:46 |
| cordoval | I wonder if the fact that this laptop has the clock dead influences this | 17:46 |
| BluesKaj | OmegaLimit, in most cases we can dsetermine the chip from the laptop make and model | 17:46 |
| ActionParsnip | cordoval: all I can recommend is using the alternate ISO mounted and install using that, or boot to natty liveCD and install from there | 17:46 |
| OmegaLimit | sec | 17:46 |
| ActionParsnip | pinoyoragon: i suggest you educate him/her about backup | 17:46 |

| ikonia | cordoval: ntpdate 0.pool.ntp.org | 17:49 |
| Psydoll | llutz: because I want to know how to do it via the compiler | 17:49 |
| cordoval | otherwise I would be on the year 1979 | 17:49 |
| Psydoll | i can easily do it that way. | 17:50 |
| ikonia | cordoval: sudo ntpdate 0.pool.ntp.org | 17:50 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: use the one in the repo | 17:50 |
| Name141 | Such as, Should I try copying the ISO to the other machine and running unbetbootin from it? Or is it going to do the same thing once I format the flash drive, etc ? | 17:50 |

| Psydoll | llutz: trying to learn | 17:50 |
| cablop | any good suggestion | 17:51 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: you're not trying to learn, you're just asking people what to type, | 17:51 |
| bigmahatma | hi I'm running 10.04 and I've downloaded 11.04. How can I create a booting usb with 11.04? | 17:51 |

| ikonia | cordoval: sudo ntpdate 0.pool.ntp.org | 17:51 |
| ActionParsnip | cordoval: check with: time and then: date | 17:51 |

| bigmahatma | hello.Can anyone help me? | 17:52 |
| cordoval | ActionParsnip: how do you mean date and time? | 17:52 |
| OmegaLimit | BluesKaj: Will do, thanks for the help | 17:52 |

| Oraiz | Does anyone in here have experience with Compiz, particularly in conjunction with "Macbuntu"? Thanks | 17:52 |
| llutz | Psydoll: i saw it and tbh, if you're not able to see, that those were several different commands, how do you expect to compile stuff | 17:52 |
| bigmahatma | ActionParsnip: thanks | 17:52 |
| ikonia | cordoval: then your machine is not connected properly to the internet | 17:53 |
| ActionParsnip | cordoval: they are terminal commands, when asked for new date or time, just press ENTER and it should go back to the prompt | 17:53 |
| compdoc | bigmahatma, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 17:53 |

| makdisse | to increase the ips on my network (from 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.254 to .0.1-1.254) I have to create another subnet or I can do that in the same subnet? | 17:53 |
| Psydoll | llutz: not everyone who is new can use the commandline and be 1337 | 17:53 |
| bigmahatma | ActionParsnip: I'm running 10.04, I guess usbcreator is for win | 17:53 |
| brown_fern | savid: I'm downloading "PCP" right now, Synaptic says that it is "system level performance monitoring," I don't know if it's what you're looking for, let me try it... | 17:54 |
| ActionParsnip | bigmahatma: no, its in a default install | 17:54 |
| cordoval | ikonia: ActionParsnip : network is the problem? hmmm | 17:54 |
| llutz | Psydoll: you're lacking linux basics, get them before compiling stuff | 17:54 |
| ActionParsnip | bigmahatma: or you can install unetbootin and use that | 17:54 |
| llutz | Psydoll: thats not a thing of being 1338 | 17:54 |
| Psydoll | llutz: so what should i do exactly? | 17:54 |
| cordoval | how to check that though since it seems to be working ok, the are some faults also when connecting through empathy for instance to IRC, I have to open webchat.freenode.net | 17:54 |
| ActionParsnip | bigmahatma: you said you were using Luid, so why would I tell you to use a Windows app when you possibly dont use Windows. It makes no sense at all... | 17:54 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: you should use the compiled version that's inthe repos, or start reading the basics and introduction into building software | 17:54 |
| Viliny | is it possible to run my persistent usb ubuntu in virtualbox? anyone done this? or a separate partition for that matter | 17:54 |
| Psydoll | llutz: typing sudo apt-get install doesntteachjack | 17:55 |
| ActionParsnip | cordoval: not sure, alternate is one easy way to offline upgrade those | 17:55 |
| compdoc | makdisse, you need more than 254 addresses? | 17:55 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: asking people what to type won't teach you anything - so unless you have a reason use the compiled version | 17:55 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: telling you to type "make" don't teach you anything, so please don't use that argument | 17:55 |
| makdisse | compdoc yes! | 17:55 |
| cordoval | wonder what could be wrong with my network, could be anything right? any commands to input to diagnose my network problems | 17:55 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: unless you have a reason not to, use the repo version, or go and read an introduction into building software on a linux enviornment | 17:55 |
| ActionParsnip | Viliny: sure, grab the closed source virtualbox for usb access and set the USB as the first boot device | 17:55 |
| cordoval | upgrading will not solve my network problems though | 17:55 |
| ActionParsnip | cordoval: it may, later kernel, newer drivers | 17:55 |
| ubun | how or where do you get CEDEGA? | 17:56 |
| Oraiz | Does anyone in here have experience with Compiz, particularly in conjunction with "Macbuntu"? Thanks | 17:56 |
| obyrith | hello i'm having issues running bash scripts from nautilus. I wrote a simple script that simply says "pwd > test.txt" to test something. It works fine when run from the terminal, but when I open it with nautilus it doesn't seem to do anything. What could the issue be here? | 17:56 |
| Psydoll | ikonia: im very close to being able to compile this program and ive already learnt alot im just stuck with thee last step | 17:56 |
| cordoval | hmm so burning | 17:56 |
| ActionParsnip | ubun: the cedega website | 17:56 |
| Viliny | thank you ActionParsnip | 17:56 |
| cordoval | ok you asked for it, I will burn 11.11 | 17:56 |
| compdoc | makdisse, I think that after 254, performance drops off pretty badly. | 17:56 |
| ActionParsnip | cordoval: no, you can mount the ISO | 17:56 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: no you're not, you're not close to it - and the last step is the only step that counts | 17:56 |
| ubun | ActionParnsip: i didnt see anydownload link... let me look again | 17:56 |
| makdisse | compdoc Well, what are my options? I have more than 254 machines in the network... | 17:56 |
| cordoval | ActionParsnip: mount iso? how | 17:56 |
| Psydoll | ikonia: how much more is there to do after "make" command/ | 17:56 |
| Psydoll | ? | 17:56 |
| cordoval | hmm interesting approach | 17:57 |
| cordoval | will I loose my data? I guess no | 17:57 |
| prlw1 | cordval: I arrived late in this, and just saw "network problem" scroll by - wireless network, or wired? | 17:57 |
| cordoval | url please | 17:57 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: it's understanding what make does and resolving the problems thats teh big learning curve | 17:57 |
| ActionParsnip | cordoval: sudo mkdir /media/iso; sudo mount -o loop /path/to/filename.iso /media/iso | 17:57 |
| ActionParsnip | cordoval: no need for a url. I can type the command quite well | 17:57 |
| Psydoll | ikonia: i think you guys are trying to over complicate the issue and under-estimating my intelligence | 17:57 |
| cipher_ | hey i am trying to install ubuntu along sides winblowz, and it is using the wrong drive? i don't see an option to select my main drive? | 17:57 |
| Psydoll | im being trolled | 17:57 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: what is the make command you are using | 17:57 |
| ActionParsnip | cordoval: all you need to change is /path/to/filename.iso to your actual file | 17:58 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: you're not being trolled | 17:58 |
| winux | what is the simplest way of masking a url? Specifically, a path to files | 17:58 |
| cordoval | the ubuntu iso file right? i will download it now | 17:58 |
| Psydoll | ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/620084/ | 17:58 |
| ActionParsnip | cipher_: do you use windows7? | 17:58 |
| Psydoll | thats one of the makefiles in the new direcotry | 17:58 |
| makdisse | compdoc any idea on a solution? | 17:58 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: I am not underestimating your ability - I am overestiing it | 17:58 |
| cipher_ | ActionParsnip, XP | 17:58 |
| cipher_ | I know right | 17:58 |
| cipher_ | old | 17:58 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: show me in that output where it says run the commands you are running | 17:58 |
| ActionParsnip | cipher_: its better than the other guff microsoft make | 17:59 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: it even gives you examples and you are running something totally different | 17:59 |
| obyrith | does anyone know what the issue with nautilus is? i notice in several ways scripts don't run the same from there as from the terminal. | 17:59 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: so - now, use the version in the repo, or read the basics about how to build software without asking people what command next - this topic needs to end | 17:59 |
| ActionParsnip | cipher_: you can boot the liveCD and resize the NTFS partition to make space for Ubuntu | 17:59 |
| compdoc | makdisse, you might google supernetting | 17:59 |
| Psydoll | ikonia: im going to try the ones listed | 17:59 |
| makdisse | compdoc ok thanks! | 17:59 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: you should have done that from day 1 !!!! | 17:59 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: READ the documentation | 17:59 |

| ActionParsnip | prlw1: then you should ask in #gnome | 18:11 |
| prlw1 | ActionParsnip: then I could answer my own questions :-) | 18:11 |
| ActionParsnip | prlw1: gnome3 isn't supported here | 18:11 |
| gfols | Guest80166: man chmod | 18:11 |
| prlw1 | ActionParsnip: yes, you already mentioned that... | 18:11 |
| ActionParsnip | prlw1: yet youo still asked your question, interesting.... | 18:12 |
| ejo | Is this the wrong place to look for help with 11.04 installation issues? I'm sure they're at least not a favorite type of question | 18:12 |
| Xyzzin | I need to ask how do i say in german "Mentor" i cant find help anywhere. Thanks in advance. | 18:13 |
| prlw1 | ActionParsnip: the question was essentially, where do the gnome3 ppa people hang out - I know the gnome end of things, but find it hard to see through the ubuntu layers. Nevermind... | 18:13 |
| ejo | On my previous try, I somehow got around that install problem, but after using my successful 11.04 install for a couple of days I got boot errors where my /boot partition could not be mounted, and I don't really understand that either. The physical drive checks out OK with various tools. | 18:13 |
| rcmaehl | Why won't 2 ethernet cards work? | 18:13 |

| zakkkkmm | how do i install ubuntu 11.04 skiping the "4.4gb" disk requirement? | 18:14 |
| brown_fern | ejo: What did the "issue" concern? Would it be that installing from USB is sometimes problematic, I would then install from a CD/DVD then. | 18:14 |
| prlw1 | ActionParnsip: The ubuntu PPA:gnome3 team go to #gnome? I haven't seen them there... | 18:14 |

| prlw1 | obyrith: You have a question? | 18:15 |
| sieson | I want to install Nvidia's driver but I can't stop it from installing Nvidia's GUI tool. I don't want to use Nvidia's tool because monitor configuration using Gnome is a lot easier and works much better than Nvidia. Does anyone know how to install nvidia without having it disable Gnome's "Monitors" feature? | 18:15 |
| ejo | brown_fern: is that just a known issue with USB installs? you must have missed my description only a couple of lines earlier: "ubi-partman failed with exit code 141" at the beginning of the install attempt. | 18:15 |
| obyrith | prlw1: yeah, i'll write it again | 18:15 |
| cillin | wtf? i cant set domainname? | 18:15 |
| obyrith | hello i'm having issues running bash scripts from nautilus. I wrote a simple script that simply says "pwd > test.txt" to test something. It works fine when run from the terminal, but when I open it with nautilus it doesn't seem to do anything. What could the issue be here? | 18:15 |
| ikonia | cillin: control the langauge please | 18:15 |
| rcmaehl | obyrith: chmod +x | 18:15 |
| brown_fern | ejo: I don't know if that is a known issue with USB, I almost always install from DVD and hardly ever have problems. | 18:16 |
| obyrith | rcmaehl: you need to do that for ones you launch in nautilus? | 18:16 |
| rcmaehl | obyrith: you have to make them executible | 18:16 |
| ActionParsnip | prlw1: The topic for #gnome3 is: This is not the GNOME 3 channel, visit irc.gimp.org instead | 18:16 |
| rcmaehl | or else they won't run | 18:16 |
| rcmaehl | from nautilus | 18:16 |
| cillin | anyone know how to set domainname in a persistant way? | 18:16 |
| gfols | rcmaehl: they should both work | 18:16 |
| obyrith | rcmaehl: you're right, it works now | 18:16 |
| rcmaehl | gfols: nope | 18:16 |
| ejo | brown_fern: I see. Thanks for the suggestion. Any comment on my other question? Where after I did successfully install 11.04 one time, a day later I had boot trouble, the /boot partition could not be loaded? | 18:17 |
| rcmaehl | gfols: when i connect both they don't | 18:17 |
| obyrith | ok well now i'll get to why i was doing this in the first place, and why this could be an issue. | 18:17 |

| dforthman | lol | 18:19 |
| tarzq | i need help to be increase my uplink | 18:20 |
| obyrith | basically i just made a game in python, but i thought it would be easier to distribute in frozen form from cx_freeze. you can run it fine from nautlilus with python installed with the source version, but it has several dependencies, so i like using the binary better for this. i'm trying to make it easy to run on windows, linux, and possibly os x if someone can help me later, so i put "shortcuts" to it in the top directory called pl | 18:20 |
| mattster | obyrith how did you give the installer root priviliges/control permissions? | 18:21 |
| brown_fern | ejo: I also make /boot partitions with my installs, I make them larger than they need to be, at least 500 MB or more, and in a native Linux file system, but an older version of that file system so that the FS does not take up too much space... | 18:21 |
| kevke | How does this work: I wanted to fsck my harddrive and it appears as if it freezes right after I put the order in | 18:21 |
| brown_fern | ejo: I don't think that in your case that is helpful information. | 18:21 |
| obyrith | mattster: i was just making it a tar that you extract and then run a script which runs gksudo to enable the executable file to be executed, then runs it. | 18:21 |
| obyrith | i thought it would be easiest without having to install it | 18:22 |
| kevke | i mean, I do fsck /dev/md2 it starts asys pass1: whatever it is checking for and then nothing happens | 18:22 |
| ejo | brown_fern: I've seen posts while researching this issue, which indicated that a /boot partition of 500MB or more would solve this. But the author of the dual-boot instructions I was following, which are only ten days old, said that wasn't important. Incidentally I used ext2 for /boot. | 18:22 |
| obyrith | i'm thinking of making the linux version just the python source, and distributing all the dependencies with it, while providing the binary for windows. is that a good idea? | 18:23 |
| brown_fern | ejo: I almost always use ext2 for /boot, too. | 18:23 |
| yfk | why isn't Rstudio in the repositories? | 18:23 |
| tommyfun | hi all, quick question, does anyone know how to install everything from the universe repository at once? | 18:23 |
| ejo | brown_fern: The one lead I've gotten so far is that I should install GRUB to the MBR, not to /boot (which I apparently must have done). How do I move GRUB? | 18:23 |
| pippetta | salve | 18:24 |
| dayer4b | hey | 18:25 |
| dayer4b | what do i do to report a crash? | 18:26 |
| obyrith | does my idea for distributing my game sound good? or should i do it differently? | 18:26 |
| BluesKaj | kevke, fsck -n will tell what's required to fix a problem if there is one | 18:26 |
| brown_fern | ejo: I'm no expert, but it was my understanding that modern boot loaders, such as Grub, are too big for the MBR alone and that they install to the hard disk drive for this reason. It may also be the case with Windows 7, for instance, that the 100 MB mandatory partition it installs is for its boot loader, too. | 18:26 |
| oCean | obyrith: it's offtopic. Try #ubuntu-offtopic for chat | 18:27 |
| ejo | Ah. | 18:27 |
| rcmaehl | Why won't 2 ethernet cards work when I connect them both to the router? I get "ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted". ##networking says it's probably something not configured in the iptables but they don't know how to configure the iptables, so can someone here help me configure my iptables? | 18:27 |

| ferrenrock | is it part of the gtk theme or what? | 18:28 |

| rcmaehl | tarzq: follow instructions on the page TO THE LETTER | 18:29 |
| brown_fern | ejo: So, Grub in fact installs itself, at least by default, to the MBR and the /boot partition. I personally know nothing about getting Grub to install just to the small MBR. | 18:29 |

| phrearch | hm, i got two hdds. installed ubuntu on the second and made that one bootable. ubuntu installed fine, but it wont boot from it | 18:40 |
| mattster | _habnabit, for example, i could create a user in the admin group for the script to run with root priviliges and add the no password option in the sudoers file. Though, that seems like a security risk | 18:41 |
| phrearch | huh? | 18:42 |
| phrearch | ubuntu installed grub on my other hdd | 18:42 |
| phrearch | seems to work fine | 18:42 |
| phrearch | weird though | 18:43 |
| ejo | phrearch: are you getting the problem where your /boot partition is unable to be mounted? | 18:43 |
| phrearch | ejo: i dont know. all i did was set my second hdd as first bootable, install ubuntu on it, and go. just end up in a blinking cursor | 18:44 |
| phrearch | when i switched back to the first hdd, i found that ubuntu overwrote the archlinux grub | 18:44 |
| phrearch | on the other hdd | 18:44 |
| phrearch | gladly it detects both now, but its not expected behaviour i suppose | 18:45 |

| apofis | hi guys | 19:04 |
| apofis | quick question | 19:04 |
| theadmin | apofis: Ask. | 19:04 |
| apofis | where can I find inittab in ubuntu 11.04 ? | 19:04 |
| theadmin | !runlevel | apofis | 19:04 |
| ubottu | apofis: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 19:04 |
| apofis | I see | 19:05 |
| MrDeadhead | oh | 19:05 |
| apofis | I wanna run my ubuntu box in text mode by default | 19:05 |
| inashdeen | llutz: yes i know, of course, if anyone in this world would support linux by default it would be great. i need to know how do i write it correctly on a linux voip client,like jitsi perhaps. example, for lowratevoip, i just write myuser@lowratevoip.com and my password. but how would i do for piramid003*cairo??? | 19:05 |
| llutz_ | !nox | apofis | 19:05 |
| ubottu | apofis: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 19:05 |
| apofis | so should I remove GDM from init sequence ? | 19:05 |
| Gruenkohl | theadmin, your question sounds like you are just guessing. If you had looked on my pastes in alsa, you could identify the contents aof alsa-mixer | 19:06 |
| MrDeadhead | darn, Segmentation fault | 19:06 |
| inashdeen | Gruenkohl: to be truthful, even if let say, u manage to get your sound working, chance r, they will still crack halfway through, seriously, that what had happen on my presario cq42, i would suggest u upgrade to 10.10 | 19:06 |
| theadmin | apofis: That or what llutz said. To stop GDM from starting, do "sudo update-rc.d gdm disable" | 19:07 |
| trism | MrDeadhead: did you install something new recently? and which ubuntu version are you running | 19:08 |
| theadmin | Gruenkohl: Yes, I am just guessing, but who knows? Maybe I could be of help. Don't scream at me | 19:08 |
| Gruenkohl | inashdeen, your suggestion may be another try, but it doesn't sound that you really know this will help. | 19:08 |
| MrDeadhead | 11.04 an yes i installed some stuff from synaptic | 19:08 |
| MrDeadhead | i think tv viewer font intaller | 19:08 |
| Gruenkohl | theadmin, thanks for you try. | 19:09 |
| theadmin | inashdeen: Look, if it doesn't work for you it doesn't mean it won't work for someone else. Stop suggesting to upgrade, as long as 10.04 is supported, and it is, this suggestion is invalid | 19:09 |

| llutz_ | apofis: grub2 uses /boot/grub/grub.cfg, to modify edit /etc/default/grub or /etc/grub.d/* stuff | 19:12 |
| luis_ | i'm trying to install ubuntu natty by liveUSB, and after succesfully intializing with xforcevesa, it hangs after the installer tries to configure some tcp settings | 19:12 |
| JFranks | So I needed a MySQL server.. I put Ubuntu on an ISO .. booted installed.. upgraded to the latest .. installed MySQL server, and the MySQL Server Admin, looks good, also enabled remote desktop.. Verified that the machine has WAN and LAN access to a local web server (192.168..) but I can't get to it from any windows boxes, only thing I can do is ping, and when I tried VNC Server on Ubuntu the correct password gives me a "Security type req | 19:12 |
| JFranks | message before failure." .. I did the sudo ufw disable .. I killed the windows machine's firewall.. derp.. i figured RDP might be me, or MySQL, but then VNC fails oddly and the ping works? | 19:12 |
| apofis | @theadmin: thx just found it | 19:12 |
| yfk | inashdeen, he's (clem) anti Israeli out of ignorance. As an Irishman I just can't understand how he can be like that | 19:13 |
| yfk | theadmin, better gow? | 19:13 |
| yfk | theadmin, better how? | 19:13 |
| theadmin | yfk: Better format support, faster, not ugly in KDE. | 19:13 |
| inashdeen | yfk: clem who? | 19:13 |
| MrDeadhead | trism, it may have been X11 fonts for TV applications as the problem. | 19:14 |
| inashdeen | yfk: now what is actually the issue? | 19:14 |
| yfk | Pici, look at Rstudio's website. It's fully featured and looks great. they have .debs there but more than that. I just find it difficult to believe it just didn't have enough time to incorporate into ubuntu | 19:14 |
| panksy | 19:14 | |
| fellipe | hi friends, can you tel me some options of filesystem backup softwares, like remastersys ? in fact, I need to backup the entire filesystem of a ubuntu server (firewall) | 19:14 |
| yfk | Inashdeen, the guy who made mint | 19:15 |
| fellipe | and the backup must be done without turning the system off | 19:15 |
| MrDeadhead | going to reboot see if panel start properly | 19:15 |
| econdudeawesome | howdy all. How do I change the default console resolution for Ubuntu Server? | 19:16 |
| yfk | inashdeen, really, he's anti Israeli... I really liked using mint and everything but one day he just went out with this post at the distro's blog about people from Israel shouldn't use the distro | 19:16 |

| preecher | im on ubuntu 11.04 & want to resize my harddrive, basically making a seperate partition i can install something else on--dont i use gparted to do this while running in "live" mode? | 19:16 |
| Pici | yfk: Packages get imported from debian, and may also be specially package for Ubuntu. I don't see that package in debian at all, and a [needs packaging] bug was just filed on May 18th for Ubuntu, so it wouldn't have made it into 11.04 even if it had been packaged. | 19:17 |
| theadmin | preecher: You do | 19:17 |
| [V13]Axel | preecher: Yes indeed. | 19:17 |
| inashdeen | yfk: is he anti sematic?? well, despite me myself being an anti israel to some extend, i dont agree with the fact that this and this shouldnt use this. i mean come on, this is FREE/OPEN source. no discrimination | 19:17 |
| Pici | yfk: I see a Wishlist bug in Debian asking for it to be packaged from only 90 days ago. See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=617296 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/784725 for more info | 19:17 |

| yfk | theadmin, I have to admit to never testing either speed or reliability of libre (don't use KDE) I'll give it another shot | 19:18 |
| inashdeen | Pici: sorry | 19:19 |
| szagi | cool:) | 19:19 |
| inashdeen | Pici: btw, can we open to irc channel at the same time? | 19:19 |
| luis_ | any ideas of my problem? | 19:19 |
| Pici | inashdeen: yes. Just /join #channelname | 19:19 |
| theadmin | yfk: Basically LibreOffice is openoffice with a cheeseburger on top *shrug* | 19:19 |
| yfk | inashdeen, I know... that's why he shouldn't have said it. It's like he was the victim of some Palestinian propaganda and acted, solely, on that | 19:20 |
| Corey | yfk: Please take that line of conversation elsewhere. | 19:20 |
| JFranks | Hmm actually this HAS to be a firewall.. if Ubuntu can see everything on the LAN/WAN but nothing on the LAN connects properly to the Ubuntu box? ... | 19:20 |
| luis_ | hello!? | 19:20 |
| inashdeen | yfk: lets go to #ubuntu-offtopic, have a nice chat there. they say no offtopic here, or add me on inashdeen@yahoo.com | 19:20 |
| luis_ | i was trying to ask a question, but no one seems to have read it... | 19:20 |
| inashdeen | luis: bout? | 19:21 |
| theadmin | luis_: People can just not know the answer. | 19:21 |
| luis_ | ok theadmin | 19:21 |
| luis_ | any clues about how con i troubleshoot the installation on liveusb? | 19:21 |
| luis_ | like a step by step fashion? | 19:21 |
| luis_ | i have the last line that worked before going to white blinking cursor | 19:22 |
| * eiriksvin is away: I'm busy | 19:22 | |
| JFranks | Yep .. MUST be some firewall hiding on the Ubuntu side.. what can I do to nuke all the firewalls (sudo ufw diable = DONE) | 19:22 |
| JFranks | (disable even) | 19:22 |
| edbian | JFranks: You wanna turn the firewall completely off? | 19:23 |
| luis_ | it's "3.970383] pci 0000:00:00.0: MSI quirk detected; MSI disabled" | 19:23 |
| oCean | eiriksvin: please disable your away announcements | 19:23 |
| theadmin | JFranks: There's also iptables, but that's unconfigured by default AFAIK | 19:24 |
| inashdeen | yfk: where is his blog btw? | 19:24 |
| JFranks | edbian: Yes for now I'd like to see something on the ubuntu side reply .. besides ping.. ;) | 19:24 |
| econdudeawesome | Back (restarted on accident) | 19:25 |
| oCean | inashdeen: are you still talking offtopic? | 19:25 |
| luis_ | does anyone know where can i get some info about how to troubleshoot a "try from USB" | 19:25 |
| econdudeawesome | does anyone know how to change the resolution for Ubuntu server console? | 19:25 |
| JFranks | edbian: Yeah it's a stock install no ipchains or iptables work done by me | 19:25 |
| edbian | JFranks: sudo iptables -L to see any rules. sudo iptables -F to erase all rules | 19:25 |
| theadmin | inashdeen: Please, take your offtopic talk elsewhere, e.g. #ubuntu-offtopic | 19:25 |
| edbian | JFranks: Than iptables should be empty | 19:25 |
| inashdeen | oCean: when there, now just getting the last bit, sorry | 19:25 |
| szagi | on VoIP i cant lig inn on my gg count help | 19:25 |
| oCean | inashdeen: how hard is it to understand 'stop' ? | 19:25 |
| inashdeen | oCean:ok, sorry | 19:26 |
| indicator | So I installed ubuntu on my Thinkpad T520, right out of the box. I log in, and everything freezes | 19:26 |
| inashdeen | btw, still need help with my voipsoftclient, anyone got and idea? | 19:26 |
| theadmin | inashdeen: Well, from what I gathered the only way you have is to run the Windows client, right? | 19:27 |
| theadmin | inashdeen: If so, please head to #winehq for help with that (and check http://winehq.org) | 19:27 |
| szagi | nie ogarniam nara;) | 19:28 |
| inashdeen | theadmin: the worse part is, you can download it, of course run it, but not getting connected, by the way, i thought the whole part of linuxing is to use a linux, not a windows | 19:28 |
| theadmin | szal: Sorry, no Japanese here please. | 19:28 |
| theadmin | inashdeen: Well, some people have no choice and are forced to use softwares which are windows-only. I don't have to. | 19:29 |
| pozic | How can I make sure my php files are executed on the server and not downloaded by the client? | 19:29 |
| nit-wit | inashdeen, there are no treatise.;) | 19:29 |
| pozic | Server is apache2. | 19:29 |
| theadmin | pozic: Uhh... You need PHP installed, first of all | 19:29 |
| inashdeen | nit-wit: what reaties | 19:29 |
| inashdeen | theadmin: okey then,thanks | 19:29 |
| pozic | theadmin: I have that. | 19:29 |
| JFranks | edbian: I had some rules, I did the -F and clear em... still same old issues.. Hahaha... I swear I have a cursed build.. ;p | 19:30 |
| pozic | theadmin: AFAIK, I followed instructions. | 19:30 |
| theadmin | pozic: Then just check if you get the script's output when opening a php file? | 19:30 |
| edbian | JFranks: Mmm, strange that you had rules. Did you use ufw or something? | 19:30 |
| pozic | theadmin: that is HTML. | 19:30 |
| pozic | theadmin: the problem is that it is not getting executed. | 19:30 |
| th0r | can someone tell me what log replaces messages in /var/log for 11.04? | 19:30 |
| theadmin | pozic: ...? | 19:30 |
| luis_ | any idea on how to troubleshoot an installation? | 19:30 |
| tuhina | my ubuntu says failed to load session gnome/ubuntu when i try to login | 19:30 |
| pozic | theadmin: I also enabled the php module in apache2 with some command. | 19:30 |
| pozic | theadmin: you know 'running'. | 19:31 |
| JFranks | I did load the gui firewall utillity to see if I could ADD an allow rule.. :p | 19:31 |
| pozic | theadmin: the 'execution' of a program. | 19:31 |
| JFranks | (but there we more rules than that in there.. ) | 19:31 |
| pozic | theadmin: the php programs do not get executed by apache2. | 19:31 |
| tuhina | can anyone help? | 19:31 |
| nit-wit | inashdeen, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treatise an assumed ideal is not the same as one actually in place====== i thought the whole part of linuxing is to use a linux, not a windows | 19:31 |
| theadmin | pozic: Well, uh, how can you tell, that's the problem, I mean... I don't understand you | 19:31 |
| sburwood1 | I've a Belgian ID card reader. I received help to get the ID card recognized. Now, the problem is how to file my Belgian (IRS) form? When I try to access the site, it comes back with a message about SSL. What do I do? | 19:31 |
| tuhina | hello | 19:32 |
| theadmin | sburwood1: What's the message? | 19:32 |
| JFranks | edbian: Seriously odd that I can get "bad password" when I have the wrong VNC password.. and a "fail to connect" with the right password.. Super flake.. hmmmm ... | 19:32 |
| pozic | theadmin: because I am not stupid? | 19:32 |
| tuhina | when i try to login ubuntu says "failed to load session gnome/ubuntu" | 19:33 |
| pozic | theadmin: anyway, is there some up to date documentation for this stuff? | 19:33 |
| theadmin | pozic: Okay, just making sure. Hmm... That's not really an Ubuntu problem, could you ask in #php or #httpd? | 19:33 |
| tuhina | when i try to login ubuntu says "failed to load session gnome/ubuntu" | 19:33 |
| pozic | theadmin: I would expect that installing a module which adds support for a certain feature in apache2 would enable it or at least inform me of possibilities to do so. | 19:33 |
| sburwood1 | theadmin: (Error code:ssl_error_renegotiation_not_allowed) | 19:34 |
| inashdeen | nit-wit: thanks | 19:34 |
| theadmin | sburwood1: What. Okay, that seems like a server-side problem to me, wait for a while and try again | 19:34 |
| notNicolas | I just installed ubuntu 10.04 alongside 11.04 on my Acer 721-3922 notebook. Everything looks ok, but the Internet doesn't work. | 19:34 |
| oCean | pozic: to enable a module use the a2enmod command (a2enmod php5), but I agree that it should do that when installing | 19:34 |
| notNicolas | Even the slot for the cable isn't lighting up when I plug the Internet in. | 19:34 |
| oCean | pozic: that command will also tell you if it has already been enabled | 19:35 |
| pozic | oCean: I already executed that. | 19:35 |
| nhodges | i'm booted into run level 3 / command line only, is there a way to change the console font? | 19:35 |
| notNicolas | Anybody know what's up? | 19:35 |
| sburwood1 | theadmin: I've tried a couple times. What bothers me is that just before that, I have a page that invites me to login (without a user name or password) | 19:35 |
| edbian | notNicolas: That means there is a physical problem. The cable is bad. The port is dead. | 19:35 |
| theadmin | pozic: Sounds like you need to restart Apache | 19:35 |
| oCean | pozic: and reloaded apache? | 19:35 |
| pozic | theadmin: already did that. | 19:35 |
| pozic | oCean: already did that. | 19:35 |
| oCean | pozic: and it still tries to download the php file? | 19:35 |
| theadmin | pozic: ookay... weird. | 19:35 |
| notNicolas | edbian: It works in 11.04 though. | 19:35 |
| pozic | oCean: perhaps browser cache. | 19:35 |
| oCean | pozic: try that too | 19:36 |
| sburwood1 | theadmin: I use this site once a year, so I'm rusty | 19:36 |
| edbian | notNicolas: Where does it not work? | 19:36 |
| oCean | pozic: and then check /var/log/apache2/error_log | 19:36 |
| notNicolas | On my 10.04 partition | 19:36 |
| [V13]Axel | How can I remove the WINE glass from WINE icons? | 19:36 |
| gelben | How can I sudo a program that's within my home directory? Whenever I try, it finds the program file, but insists "command not found". | 19:36 |
| pozic | oCean: right. | 19:36 |
| edbian | notNicolas: can you pastebin lspci -k for me? (this is a wired ethernet?) | 19:36 |
| pozic | oCean: I hate caches that kill correntness. | 19:36 |
| tuhina | when i try to login ubuntu says "failed to load session gnome/ubuntu" | 19:36 |
| theadmin | gelben: sudo ./progname | 19:36 |
| pozic | correctness* | 19:36 |
| gelben | theadmin: That's what I've tried, that threw up the "command not found" error | 19:37 |
| === root is now known as Guest37899 | ||
| oCean | pozic: well, yes - at other times you'll love your cache :) | 19:37 |
| gelben | doesn't happen when I try without sudo, I just get "permission required" | 19:37 |
| coz_ | tuhina, you get gdm..yes? | 19:37 |
| pozic | oCean: I design caches for correctness when I build programs. | 19:37 |
| theadmin | gelben: Uh... That's totally weird, well, are you sure the program is executable? | 19:37 |
| tuhina | coz: umm no | 19:37 |
| notNicolas | Is there specific info you are looking for in lspci -k? It's quite long and my computer can't go on the Internet lol. | 19:37 |
| nit-wit | tuhina, have you tried the classic desktop? | 19:37 |
| pozic | oCean: it might be by design, but I think it is a design error. | 19:37 |
| tuhina | ya | 19:37 |
| coz_ | tuhina, are you in text console? | 19:37 |
| comp | hi | 19:37 |
| tuhina | ya | 19:37 |
| coz_ | tuhina, did you already login there? | 19:38 |
| edbian | notNicolas: Oh yeah. Forgot you have no internet. I wanted to see that the device shows up at all. | 19:38 |
| gelben | theadmin: Thought it was strange. It's supposed to be an installer for VMWare Player - file identifies it as a BASH script attached to binary data. | 19:38 |
| nit-wit | tuhina, is there any history to this? | 19:38 |
| === andy_ is now known as Guest8553 | ||
| coz_ | tuhina, type sudo restart gdm | 19:38 |
| tuhina | <coz> i am new here | 19:38 |
| theadmin | gelben: Yeah it is | 19:38 |
| tuhina | i tried | 19:38 |
| Kutemclose | anyone use the Devede program? | 19:38 |
| notNicolas | edbian: I see "Network controller: Broadcom Corporation Device 4357 (rev 01) | 19:38 |
| theadmin | gelben: Now, try this first: sudo chmod a+x FILENAME | 19:38 |
| tuhina | it just does not login | 19:38 |
| [V13]Axel | Kutemclose: What about it? | 19:38 |
| coz_ | tuhina, ok what were you doing just brfore this happened? | 19:38 |
| edbian | notNicolas: That's it unless you have wifi | 19:38 |
| notNicolas | edbian, also "Ethernet controller: Atheros communications AR8151 v1.0 Gigabit Ethernet (rev c0) | 19:39 |
| tuhina | i was using 11.04 very smoothly | 19:39 |
| gelben | theadmin: Perfect. Thank you very much. | 19:39 |
| tuhina | then i installed gnome 3 | 19:39 |
| coz_ | tuhina, did you install or uninstall any software? | 19:39 |
| edbian | notNicolas: Do you have two ethernet ports? | 19:39 |
| tuhina | ya gnome3 | 19:39 |
| theadmin | gelben: So it worked? | 19:39 |
| notNicolas | I have a slot for wired internet, and I also have a wireless adapter. | 19:39 |
| coz_ | tuhina, thats why,, Unity will break with gnome3 | 19:39 |
| sburwood1 | theadmin: I have one question that might fix my dilemna. I found something called "...middleware...tgz". How do I open and install the middleware thing? I use Ubuntu 11.04 64bit | 19:39 |
| gelben | theadmin: Worked fine as soon as I made it executable. Thanks for reminding me, seems to be all fine. | 19:39 |
| Kutemclose | [V13]Axel, i'm having issues with it. what's happening is that i try to convert an AVI but I get the error "conversion failed, make sure you have enough disk space?" | 19:39 |
| theadmin | sburwood1: It's an archive, unpack it and read stuff | 19:40 |
| tuhina | gnomee3 worked fine for 2 days | 19:40 |
| edbian | notNicolas: Can you tell from that output which is which? (perhaps unplug the wifi for a second). Does the wifi work? I am pretty sure BCM4357 is wired | 19:40 |
| coz_ | tuhina, gnome 3 or Unity? | 19:40 |
| === ExplodingPiglets is now known as Zeku | ||
| coz_ | tuhina, did you already try a restart? | 19:40 |
| tuhina | both worked, i remmember insatlling something then it never logged in agian | 19:40 |
| edbian | notNicolas: sorry. I am pretty sure bcm4357 is wireless! I meant | 19:40 |
| theadmin | gelben: GLaD to be of help. | 19:40 |
| sburwood1 | theadmin: Sorry to be so ignorant, but how do I unpack it? -jxvf? something like that? | 19:40 |
| [V13]Axel | Kutemclose: Keep in mind, it has to create a cache folder, for temporary use. Make sure you have at least about 12GB free. | 19:40 |
| tuhina | ya it never logs in | 19:40 |
| theadmin | sburwood1: tar xvf file.tgz | 19:40 |
| coz_ | tuhina, well that "something" may be important to remember | 19:40 |
| tuhina | i was upgrading | 19:41 |
| tuhina | it stopped in the process | 19:41 |
| sburwood1 | theadmin: thanks, I am still on the low end of the learning curve ... ;) | 19:41 |
| Kutemclose | [V13]Axel, i've got a 300 gig harddrive. I'm pretty sure there's something else going on that I can't quite figure out | 19:41 |
| tuhina | because my battery went | 19:41 |
| coz_ | tuhina, ok in text console sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 19:41 |
| notNicolas | edbian: You're probably right. Do I need to get a driver or something? | 19:41 |
| KM0201 | tuhina: ugg. | 19:41 |
| theadmin | sburwood1: Hey, everybody has to learn someday | 19:41 |
| notNicolas | I could download it on another computer and transfer it via USB | 19:41 |
| nit-wit | fedora 15 is nice with gnome3 | 19:42 |
| tuhina | i tried but there is no internet connection | 19:42 |
| sburwood1 | I know .. and one day I will learn | 19:42 |
| edbian | notNicolas: sudo modprobe atl1e (we'll try that first) | 19:42 |
| coz_ | tuhina, ah oh,, sounds like that install is screwed up | 19:42 |
| tuhina | as in tty console wifi wont work right | 19:42 |
| edbian | notNicolas: That is a driver that came with the ubuntu. It should have been used right away. | 19:42 |
| [V13]Axel | Kutemclose: I have a 500GB hard drive, and something was telling me I was out of space-- Actually check it and see how much space you have. Other than that, I've never had an issue with it. | 19:42 |
| tuhina | ya i think so | 19:42 |
| tuhina | even lan connection wont work | 19:43 |
| tuhina | i would just install lxde or kfce if that works | 19:43 |
| inashdeen | ok,here's a new issue, im having it quite frequent, after using linux for several hours, my ram usage increase a lot and my computer is become less responding. never had that on window$. currently using ubuntu 10.10. anyone with a elping hand?? | 19:43 |
| __Alex_ | May i ask? I am a Xfce (Pure, not Xubuntu) fan, and i want to try Gnome 3. Is it good? | 19:43 |
| kevke | how do I bring ssh to life, so that either root, a sudoer or anyone can connect | 19:43 |
| Kutemclose | [V13]Axel, just checked and I have over 107gig of free space | 19:43 |
| nit-wit | tuhina, choose the recovery in grub and while plugged in choose the root net in the gui | 19:44 |
| theadmin | __Alex_: My opinion: GNOME 3 is the worse piece of <censored> ever. | 19:44 |
| notNicolas | edbian: I typed it in, put in my password but it didn't output anything. | 19:44 |
| lisa_ | hi | 19:44 |
| theadmin | __Alex_: Stick to XFCE. | 19:44 |
| tuhina | okay | 19:44 |
| tuhina | then | 19:44 |
| edbian | notNicolas: no news is good news. Is the card now working? | 19:44 |
| __Alex_ | theadmin: Ok, i will | 19:44 |
| xangua | __Alex_: currently no, better wait for oneiric | 19:44 |
| notNicolas | edbian: Web pages don't load on firefox, no. | 19:45 |
| tuhina | hit-wit, tell me in tty how do i connect to the internet | 19:45 |
| edbian | notNicolas: I think that driver doesn't support your card. I found this forum thread about your card: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1677122 | 19:45 |
| theadmin | tuhina: If it's just ethernet, it's as simple as "sudo ifconfig eth0 up" | 19:45 |
| nit-wit | __Alex_, try out fedora 15 if you want to see gnome3 in action. | 19:45 |
| edbian | notNicolas: You have to compile the driver yourself I think | 19:45 |
| tuhina | theadmin, ya its lan , that will make internt work ? | 19:46 |
| theadmin | tuhina: Typically yes | 19:46 |

| llutz | kevke: you want to read how ssh works and why root-login should be disabled (use force-commands-only if you really need it) | 19:46 |
| llutz | kevke: if you haven't configured any restriction, all users can login per ssh by default. | 19:47 |
| notNicolas | rofl that's insane | 19:47 |
| __Alex_ | llutz: It should be disabled becaus that way it's harder for a hacker to login | 19:47 |
| llutz | __Alex_: no shit sherlock | 19:47 |
| edbian | notNicolas: It seems to imply that you may also be able to use an older kernel | 19:47 |
| notNicolas | edbian: mine says [1969:1073]. Is that close enough to break everything? | 19:47 |
| edbian | notNicolas: It is long | 19:47 |

| mac_ | why software manager takes too long to install any software in memory of kbs | 19:48 |

| [THC]AcidRain | cool | 19:50 |
| [THC]AcidRain | very cool | 19:50 |
| edbian | notNicolas: Use an older version of Ubuntu. That's what I suggest. (Of course you NEED it, it's a human right now!) | 19:51 |
| notNicolas | I need to use 10.04 for the SDK I'm using. | 19:51 |
| dforthman | edbian, If it was a right, I wouldn't have to pay for it :( | 19:51 |
| edbian | notNicolas: Oh, I thought you were on 11.04. Don't go older than 10.04 | 19:51 |

| coz_ | For 7000 to HD4xxx series cards, you can use the open source "radeon" driver. HD2xxx and later series cards are also supported by the proprietary "fglrx" driver. | 19:54 |

| xangua | tuhina: fresh install and don't install gnome 3 again | 19:54 |
| ActionParsnip | cassiopeia_: you can run: gnome-terminal --comand="commands here" | 19:54 |
| tuhina | xangua,will i loose every thing | 19:55 |
| ActionParsnip | cassiopeia_: this will spawn an extra terminal and run the commands you set | 19:55 |
| cassiopeia_ | will kde-terminal work as well? | 19:55 |
| cassiopeia_ | not running gnome | 19:55 |
| __Alex_ | Wow! This Ubuntu thing looks really buggy compared to Debian | 19:55 |
| ActionParsnip | cassiopeia_: it's called konsole, I'll see what the syntax is | 19:55 |
| coz_ | __Alex_, you mean Unity on 11.04..yes? | 19:56 |
| ActionParsnip | cassiopeia_: konsole -e command | 19:56 |

| edbian | llutz: what are you trying to do? | 20:00 |
| edbian | jnlsnl_: can you show me ls -l /path/to/file ? | 20:00 |
| llutz | edbian: tried that chmod 700/711/701? "Can't open xxxx" | 20:00 |
| gmachine_24 | alpha_one_x86 except I think it's dev=/dev/dvdrw usually something like that | 20:01 |
| edbian | llutz: You have to give it a file. I'm helping jnlsnl_ with this problem though? | 20:01 |
| edbian | I'm confused | 20:01 |
| llutz | edbian: it won't work | 20:01 |
| jnlsnl_ | ediban -rwx--x--x 1 root root | 20:01 |

| CentoZ | __Alex_ on my internal network shows the page of apache running on the outside and only blank page, what's going on? | 20:01 |
| alpha_one_x86 | I search to recompil uncompressed folder into iso, but with mkiso that's break efi boot | 20:01 |

| edbian | jnlsnl_: Did you see that? | 20:01 |
| gmachine_24 | Ok, I'm wrong. | 20:01 |
| edbian | jnlsnl_: Apparently since bash is a script, you have to be able to read in order to execute | 20:01 |
| __Alex_ | CentoZ: Have you port forwarded? | 20:01 |
| jnlsnl_ | edbian ahh dang | 20:01 |
| edbian | jnlsnl_: write the program in C and you can get the desired effect. Humans cannot read binary compiled files | 20:02 |
| gmachine_24 | It depends on what you want to make an ISO out of. | 20:02 |
| gmachine_24 | man genisoimage is helpful | 20:02 |
| jnlsnl_ | edbian can i make the script only executable by root then maybe tho? | 20:02 |
| edbian | jnlsnl_: Sure you can do that. | 20:02 |
| __Alex_ | I use DD, but genisoimage may work | 20:02 |
| theadmin | __Alex_: dd works, yeah | 20:03 |
| edbian | jnlsnl_: chmod 770 or 700 (either way root is the only person that can do anything to it) | 20:03 |
| theadmin | Actually genisoimage is for making images from files. | 20:03 |
| theadmin | While dd is used for real drives | 20:03 |

| jnlsnl_ | edbian when i run the command it says "command not found" now that its chmod to 770 | 20:04 |
| CentoZ | only that | 20:04 |
| jnlsnl_ | edbian the script is in home/bin | 20:04 |
| edbian | jnlsnl_: chmod is not found? sudo chmod | 20:04 |
| __Alex_ | CentoZ: Well, than i don't have any idea | 20:04 |
| edbian | jnlsnl_: although I wouldn't have expected 'command not found' from that | 20:04 |
| jnlsnl_ | err when i try to execute the bash script it says the command is not found, chmod worked | 20:04 |
| gmachine_24 | so I use tar to back up my comps including a separate back up for the home folder and docs, etc. But here's the thing: there are a lot of "hidden" files in the home folder you know./mozilla this and that which I do not want to back up. So should I just add an --exclude=/. to my command or what? Anyone? | 20:04 |
| jnlsnl_ | maybe i need to place the script somewhere else in order to make it work with root ? | 20:05 |
| edbian | jnlsnl_: sudo scriptName (since only root can execute it) | 20:05 |
| edbian | jnlsnl_: maybe it needs to be in /root/bin I think though that /usr/local/sbin/ is probably a better place | 20:05 |
| alpha_one_x86 | I have not genisoimage, I'm not ont ubuntu | 20:05 |
| jnlsnl_ | edbian yeah that gives me a command not found now :S strangeness | 20:05 |
| dforthman | gmachine_24, it would be more like --exclude=/home/username/.* i think? | 20:06 |
| edbian | jnlsnl_: Probably because your user can't even read that file | 20:06 |

| gmachine_24 | dforthman, yes, of course, you are right. I should have given the complete path - but do you think this is the right way? | 20:06 |
| theadmin | alpha_one_x86: Well, uhm, this is Ubuntu support, and if you're not on ubuntu, we can't help you | 20:06 |

| slakcphil | theadmin, right, what about the dry run option? | 20:07 |
| theadmin | slakcphil: Could work. Anyway, httrack works *much* better than wget for site cloning | 20:07 |
| slakcphil | theadmin, really.. i will take a look at that, thanks! | 20:08 |
| gmachine_24 | I want to back up the home folder and docs etc. and then reinstall Ubuntu but it will either be another version or it will be the same version but without as many updates - so I think there might be some conflicts if I don't block the hidden files. | 20:08 |
| edbian | jnlsnl_: do you understand the commands we're running? Would you like more explanation? | 20:08 |
| cassiopeia_ | btw, can you make wget download to a specific directory? | 20:08 |

| jnlsnl_ | edbian something else | 20:14 |

| jnlsnl_ | edbian so by calling script something1, the script connects to one server, and something2 the script connects to another | 20:15 |
| gmachine_24 | Is there a Linux/Ubuntu hard drive image program that does not require both drives to be the same size? This is driving me crazy. | 20:15 |
| edbian | jnlsnl_: I think what you're talking about is command line arguments. Yes you can do that. (This script is getting elaborate, perhaps it would be better as a C / C++ or even python program) | 20:15 |
| jamesstanley | jnlsnl_: you can get the argument values with $n where n is the number, so for "script something1", $0 is "script" and $1 is "something1" | 20:15 |

| tripppy | hey sniper | 20:32 |

| sniperrh | hello tripppy | 20:32 |
| gmachine_24 | waseem, your problem is precisely what? | 20:32 |

| Maylow | NictraSavios, but then, after installing the samba package, I believe, I'm unable to browse the network | 21:01 |
| NictraSavios | Sean93, Use wgetpaste from the command line, just go "wgetpaste "pathtofile"" it will give you a link. | 21:01 |
| sagi | theadmin, git revert then ? | 21:01 |
| sagi | please explain ? | 21:01 |
| Maylow | NictraSavios, the mount operation is successful | 21:01 |

| NictraSavios | Maylow, It probably should be in your home. But I don't use samba personally. And smb.conf needs to be configured properly , look in it for "security: user" | 21:05 |

| NictraSavios | sabiancrash_cgx, You can install it youself from the terminal if you want it. There are plenty of guides online for that, although if you really need it, I will go though it | 21:09 |
| Pici | pcperini: You may want to ask in #ubuntu-server and/or #mysql as well. | 21:09 |
| Maylow | NictraSavios, anyway, I will try to remove samba temporarily to see if this will fix the problem | 21:09 |

| NictraSavios | Maylow, Alright. If it dosen't feel free to come back, someone who knows more about samba then me will be here lmao | 21:09 |
| Maylow | NictraSavios, at least I'll know if the presence of the software is the issue, or it has changed some configuration premanently | 21:10 |
| NictraSavios | sabiancrash_cgx, It could be done. But there is no reason. Grub legacy is still supported and will be for years. | 21:10 |

| ALEX_10 | hello to all, There is a lot different file type can be install in ubuntu, I want to know them all, how can I find the list, for example .deb .sh and ... . where i can find this list, | 21:11 |
| NictraSavios | fallout2, Supports alredy there. I'm on a GPT/GUID table now. | 21:11 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | NictraSavios, interesting, I was getting the vibe from the interwebs and #grub that grub .97- is not officially supported anymore | 21:11 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, deb = debian packaging. sh = shell. Try googleing the extension like "what is .bat" | 21:11 |
| cordoval_ | I have issued gksu "sh pathtoiso" and nothing | 21:11 |
| cordoval_ | no nothing, not even a modal window | 21:12 |
| cordoval_ | not even an error message | 21:12 |
| NictraSavios | sabiancrash_cgx, Suse still uses it. Debian still dose. Im pretty sure Red Hat dose. | 21:12 |
| cordoval_ | please help how can I upgrade? | 21:12 |
| guntbert | ALEX_10: and remember that file extensions are not really relevant in linux | 21:12 |
| r1chm | hello | 21:12 |
| MorphyNOR | I have a problem with a Dell Studio XPS 1640 with a build-in bluetooth adapter which is not working corrently in 10.10, can anyone please help me? | 21:12 |
| ALEX_10 | NictraSavios: problem is that i don't know them | 21:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | cordoval_, your " gksu sh pathtoiso" is a non-command - what are you trying to do? | 21:12 |
| NictraSavios | sabiancrash_cgx, Its tested and stable. Just not prefered by the lazier crowds. Infact Arch Linux uses it by default. I'm using arch now, but I have installed grub2 | 21:12 |
| ALEX_10 | in windows there is just exe | 21:12 |
| ALEX_10 | but here | 21:12 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | NictraSavios, well in that case, I will sit back and relax and not worry about it | 21:13 |
| cordoval_ | ZykoticK9: trying to upgrade from ubuntu from an iso | 21:13 |
| cordoval_ | ZykoticK9: from maverick to natty | 21:13 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, Really , just exe? what about .bat .png .jpg .lnk .doc .odt | 21:13 |
| cordoval_ | none of the other methods work | 21:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | cordoval_, you CANNOT use a LiveCD you need the Alternate cd to do that | 21:13 |
| cordoval_ | what is the url for that? | 21:14 |
| KM0201 | !alternate | 21:14 |
| ubottu | The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/alternative-download#alternate - See also !minimal | 21:14 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, All of the extensions your seeing (besides a few) are in windows. Its just that windows , by default, hides them. You can ask it to show them in the folder options menu. | 21:14 |
| cordoval_ | thanks | 21:14 |

| r1chm | i have a Q i was hoping someone could help me out with. I've just bought a shuttle xs35GT which i was hoping to turn into a ubuntu based media server for the house. Which version of ubuntu should i use? I dont think server is viable as i am not familiar with any form of linux so i need a GUI to help me out.... which leaves version 10 or 11... what would people recommend? | 21:14 |
| fallout2 | What`s the future with Uefi in ubuntu? kernel like? | 21:14 |
| === FernandoTertius is now known as FernandoTertiary | ||
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, Ubuntu dosent hide them, why? Well in windows you can have picture.jpg.exe , all you see is .jpg. In truth, when you click on it, its an executable, (installer) which could install a virus. Or just be a program. | 21:15 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, So in ubuntu you could have Myepicvacionpicture.jpg.deb , But now, you know its bad. | 21:15 |
| ALEX_10 | NictraSavios: aha, tnx | 21:16 |
| ALEX_10 | but how can i find all insttlation extensions list of ubuntu | 21:16 |
| SinnerNyx | I read that Ubuntu-server keeps a blacklist of terminal resolutions. I'd like to comment one of these out.. any idea where I can do that? | 21:16 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, No problem, just another reason to leave Windows behind. Well, theres no "list" that i know of. But for Ubuntu, installers are all .deb | 21:16 |

| r1chm | bearing in mind the pc connects to television on a HDMI slot and for some reason i get no sound on either 10 or 11... :( so i suppose its whichever is the easiest fix | 21:17 |
| ALEX_10 | NictraSavios: and the file we run | 21:17 |
| ALEX_10 | they are also deb? | 21:17 |
| BluesKaj | r1chm, I use a media server with kubuntu 11.04 installed , which also acts as my htpc , equipped with nvidia 8400gs with dvi to hdmi and a panasonic plasma tv as monitor ...It's very doable | 21:17 |
| r1chm | BluesKaj, even for a 100% beginner? | 21:18 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, Its called a "package" , for other distibuntions they use other ones, fedora uses rpm, Arch Linux uses .pkg , .deb is a "debian package", debian is what ubuntu is bassed off. As for the file you "run" there is none. They don't have extensions. So the text editor, gedit, has a binary in /bin thats called "gedit" , no extension. | 21:18 |
| r1chm | this has the Nvidia ion gfx | 21:18 |
| BluesKaj | yes r1chm , do you use an amp or receiver for audio or just the tv sound system? | 21:19 |
| r1chm | BluesKaj, just the tv | 21:19 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, You see, extensions are needed in ubuntu. There more/less optional. As for things you run, they are "executable", thats what seperates them from normal files. You can see if it is or not, by right clicking, and going to "properties" then "permissions" | 21:19 |
| r1chm | BluesKaj, for now :) | 21:19 |

| fallout2 | Do you know, that uefi based mainboards are extremly problematic to install any ubuntu based distribution with large partitions? | 21:20 |
| zooko | Folks: does anyone know how to tell Ubuntu/Gnome to use the Splix driver and not the GDI driver for my Samsung laser printer? | 21:20 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, .deb files, are not exectuable. They are installed by the software center, kinda like unzipping a zip file, only this file puts everything where it needs to go, and dose other very complex things. Like run scripts and help the package manager know whats installed :P | 21:20 |
| zooko | I have the "splix" package installed, but it doesn't seem to come with a PPD file. | 21:20 |
| NictraSavios | fallout2, Milages vary. I never had an issue. | 21:20 |
| BluesKaj | r1chm, ok you can route the audio out of your soundcard to your audio in on the tv while we work on getting sound to the hdmi , which is something I don't know much about | 21:20 |
| NictraSavios | fallout2, I'm hooked into a 10TB hardRAID array. And I have zero issues. | 21:21 |

| r1chm | BluesKaj, i need to try this tomorrow the computer currently has Fedora installed as i was seeing whether that would work on audio.... but fedora is harder to use, so i was going to go back to Ubuntu... but now you have thrown kubuntu into the works.. whats Kubuntu? | 21:22 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, You see, ubuntu cannot be compared to windows. You have to forget all your habits. In ubuntu theres no antivirus and no worries, and don't worry, ask away. I'll answer everything you got :P | 21:22 |
| tomek__ | who can help me with defragmentation ? | 21:22 |
| edwardthefma | hello all | 21:22 |
| NictraSavios | tomek_, Dosent exist in Linux. | 21:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | tomek_, consider it not needed with EXT file systems | 21:22 |
| tomek__ | I need to defragment ntfs volume | 21:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | tomek_, use windows | 21:23 |
| NictraSavios | tomek_, yup :P | 21:23 |
| fallout2 | NictraSavis: With an uefi bios based mainboard? | 21:23 |
| tomek__ | windows | 21:23 |
| smw | tomek__, I do not believe linux has an ntfs defrag utility. They are just happy to be able to read it ;-) | 21:23 |
| NictraSavios | fallout2, yup :P, only thing i trust nowadays is uefi. | 21:23 |
| Sean93 | update-grub gives https://pzt.me/05bw. im trying to add windows 7 located on sda | 21:23 |
| NictraSavios | smw, there is one. But it only fixes it enough to be used if its broken. | 21:24 |
| zooko | robin0800: Um, I don't think cups is a type of driver, is it? In any case openprinting.org suggests splix, and I've used splix successfully in the past with this printer, and the current gdi driver is not working. | 21:24 |
| BluesKaj | ubuntu use the gnome desktop , kubuntu uses the kde , but both are based on the same OS , so it's nothing to be concerned ...ubuntu 11,04 will work the same ..just has a differnt "look" | 21:24 |
| sagi | hey, if I have made some changes in my project say 'main.c' and want to replace this 'main.c' with the old one in the already made git repo | 21:24 |

| sagi | what to do | 21:24 |
| sagi | provide me the steps please ! | 21:24 |
| smw | tomek__, define secure :-) | 21:24 |
| DasEi | Sean93: check /etc/fstab and /boot/grub/device.map | 21:24 |
| r1chm | BluesKaj, i see. So you would recommend the kde desktop over gnome for ease of use? | 21:24 |
| NictraSavios | tomek_, Linux is the most secure thing out there. | 21:24 |
| tomek__ | smw : data safety when connected to networks | 21:25 |
| ZykoticK9 | Sean93, what is that /media/boot you have? | 21:25 |
| BluesKaj | r1chm, no , it;s just a matter of taste | 21:25 |
| sabiancrash_cgx | until you start installing a bunch of packages and connecting to the internet and forgetting about it | 21:25 |
| ALEX_10 | NictraSavios: in windows you have some partition, like c, d, , but here is just root, so if we have a 160G hard drive , and the PC has 3 user, then how they get free space, for example i can have 120G of it for one user or it will be 1/3 for each of them | 21:25 |
| NictraSavios | tomek_, Want proof? I had a hacker , try, not a bot, a person. try for over 3 hours to get into my machine :) We had a bit of a battle and I got into his first and he owed me 10 bucks | 21:25 |

| === Rudemeister is now known as Guest4588 | ||
| smw | tomek__, data safe when connected to what? By default, no ports are open, no files are shared. | 21:26 |
| r1chm | BluesKaj, oh ok. i gather from the website that 10.04 has LTS whilst 11.04 is more "beta"? so presumably for a stable media server id be best off installing 10.04? | 21:26 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, Yes it has root, other drives are instead mounted in other places. Right now I have a a special partition for my personal data, its mouunted in /media/Shared | 21:26 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, Drives are mounted in /media | 21:26 |
| DasEi | Kutemclose: not an alternative, but nice for converting: handbrake | 21:26 |
| robin0800 | zooko, brother recommend using the linux built in cups system for their printers | 21:27 |
| NictraSavios | fallout2, Im using Arch Linux, but i guess the same applies. | 21:27 |
| zooko | robin0800: this is not a brother printer. Cups is not a driver. | 21:27 |
| auk | r1chm: you mean a home media center? don't get your hopes up cause it looks like it might be a dead project but there was an "Ubuntu Multimedia Center" distro "Ubuntu MMC" | 21:27 |
| Kutemclose | DasEi, so I can use it for avi's to put on a DVD? | 21:27 |
| fallout2 | NictraSavis: ok :) | 21:27 |
| BluesKaj | r1chm, 11.04 is not beta but LTS is good OS for ppl who want and need stability and good package support | 21:27 |
| uboy | tomek_, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qR591lh5Ow | 21:28 |
| zooko | Hm, the PPD used to be in the package: http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/amd64/splix/filelist but now it is generated on install: http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/amd64/splix/filelist | 21:28 |
| robin0800 | zooko, cups is a linux system | 21:28 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kutemclose, handbrake doesn't output to DVD format | 21:28 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, My flash drive is in /media/7GBUSB , :P | 21:28 |
| r1chm | BluesKaj, thanks alot. will be back when ive got it installed, thanks for help | 21:28 |
| ALEX_10 | NictraSavios: no i mean lets think that there is just root partition, then how it will be in diffrent size for user or not? | 21:28 |
| zooko | But it doesn't seem to be present on my system. | 21:28 |
| wn1zid | handbrake is a little slower, but has the best results. | 21:28 |

| * zooko tries reinstalling the splix package. | 21:28 | |
| hypatia | zooko: try a reinstall --purge? | 21:28 |
| Kutemclose | ZykoticK9, what does it do then? | 21:28 |
| DasEi | Kutemclose: will have to be installed from source or foreign deb, not in repos, yess converts, also could try brasero or nero for linux, if you got a license | 21:28 |
| hypatia | jinx :) | 21:28 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kutemclose, mp4 or mkv | 21:28 |

| guntbert | uboy: please keep your statements to support | 21:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | ALEX_10, there is a filesystem feature for "quotas" but it's not commonly used on a desktop | 21:30 |
| robin0800 | zooko, if you open printers and then properties you can see and change the driver there | 21:30 |
| NictraSavios | ZykoticK9, Oh thats what she meant. | 21:30 |
| auk | ...but it seems like it's taking way longer than it should | 21:31 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, You can use programs like "disk utility" to check. | 21:31 |
| BluesKaj | auk, yeah i tried a few of those media center type OSs ..plain kububtu works just fine with VLC on my setup | 21:31 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, Why would you want a green bar staring you in the face everyday. If your low on space, ubuntu will give you a heads up | 21:31 |

| ALEX_10 | ZykoticK9: i mean i have just one 160G hard drive and one ubuntu linux, install, if the Pc has 2 user, and i be one of them, how big is my home folder, is it as much as i want for example can i have 120G of it | 21:31 |

| zooko | Hm, it seems like the ppd really ought to show up in /usr/share/ppd/splix, but no such directory is created when I purge and reinstall splix... | 21:31 |
| auk | plus, presumably one of those distros would obviate the trouble of finding and downloading all the proprietary codecs | 21:32 |
| Oday | if i am on Ubuntu 11.4 and i have the CD for 10.10, can i revert back to it smoothly without losing anything? | 21:32 |
| BluesKaj | auk, resizing can take hrs depending on how much data and how large the partition/drive is. | 21:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | ALEX_10, both users (by default) will have equal access to filling up your root partition - it won't discriminate ;) | 21:32 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, Your home folder is just that, a folder, you both share it equally. If it starts to fill up, it will tell you both. | 21:32 |
| ALEX_10 | i mean dose ubuntu manage the space of user or not? | 21:32 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, You both have your own folders :P | 21:32 |
| nit-wit | Oday, no a reinstall is the choice. | 21:32 |

| MaMoUs | opensync-plugin-synce : Depends: synce-sync-engine but it is not going to be installed | 21:39 |
| krux | edwardthefma, www.linuxfromscratch.org << time consuming though.. | 21:39 |
| nit-wit | NictraSavios, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Official_Arch_Linux_Install_Guide | 21:39 |
| ALEX_10 | NictraSavios: is there any book for text command line? | 21:39 |
| edwardthefma | thank you | 21:39 |
| fallout2 | dont bother me about | 21:39 |
| NictraSavios | nit-wit, I know lmao. I was joking, like i said, the point of arch is to DIY | 21:39 |
| edwardthefma | ill give thos each a try | 21:39 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, Its called "bash" , the commands themselves are infact, programs. Just littles ones. | 21:40 |
| fallout2 | I love you all, folks! ...; | 21:40 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, There are probably books, but I suggest you live and learn, master ubuntu's gui, learn command line from others, read around alot. | 21:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | NictraSavios, well, there are the built-ins ;) | 21:40 |
| robin0800 | zooko, any linux help on samsung's site? | 21:41 |
| NictraSavios | ZykoticK9, Of course, But Its easier to explain it like this. | 21:41 |
| uboy | Is grub not a standard program? I m watching a video where a hot chick explains how to reinstall grub 2. I would like to follow her instructions but grub cant be found. I thought grub is the standard boot loader | 21:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | NictraSavios, i know - just giving YOU a hard time ;) | 21:41 |
| ALEX_10 | NictraSavios: Remmber one thing from last night, i try to work with shutdown, but i didn't power of the Pc, and fans were still wroking | 21:41 |
| NictraSavios | ZykoticK9, Always be aware of who your talking to when you explain something. If i wanted to, I would tell her to press ctrl+alt+f1 and say "good luck" | 21:41 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, Try the command "poweroff" | 21:41 |
| fallout2 | grub is overrated... | 21:41 |
| ALEX_10 | so what dose shutdown do? | 21:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | NictraSavios, that wouldn't be nice. :) -- random input generator: ask a beginner to exit vi | 21:42 |
| nit-wit | ALEX_10, your getting only one users view here and like all personal opions are subjective made to be taken as is. here is a guide. http://ubuntupocketguide.com/index_main.html | 21:42 |
| NictraSavios | ALEX_10, Same thing really. But shutdown is funny sometimes, so you should use shutdown -h now to shut down, -h means "hault" | 21:42 |
| zooko | robin0800: I haven't looked at Samsung's site--I definitely want to use the open source splix drivers instead of drivers provided by the company if I can help it. I've opened a ticket with Ubuntu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/splix/+bug/793741 | 21:42 |

| NictraSavios | ZykoticK9, I have to admit, Ive been using nano untill last week XD. | 21:43 |
| zooko | I'll be back in a bit. Thanks a lot for your help robin0800 and hypatia! :-) | 21:43 |
| NictraSavios | ZykoticK9, Decided i better learn emacs or vi, and vi seems more popular | 21:43 |
| tasos99 | How do I set up a limit on an application's maximum HDD I/O (Or even global, I do not care) | 21:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | NictraSavios, and there is nothing wrong with nano. Use the tools that work best for you. vi is a posix standard so will be on any Unix/Gnu-Linux box, so it's handy to at least know the fundamentals of vi for sure. | 21:44 |
| NictraSavios | ZykoticK9, Yea i got stuck at the init screen a few days ago, no nano there. So i had to learn vi , fast. | 21:45 |
| fallout2 | grub is overrated... | 21:45 |
| fallout2 | sorry, | 21:45 |
| ZykoticK9 | grub2 is underrated ;) | 21:45 |

| NictraSavios | ZykoticK9, And where best to find the simple things , right? | 21:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | NictraSavios, perhaps common, rather then simple ;) | 21:52 |
| omni_ | NictraSavios, I installed the Dell drivers through dkpg -i (filename.deb). However i cannot get find the SNMP when using Dell's program. I have another program that finds the printer, but cannot find the driver for it :\ | 21:52 |
| NictraSavios | omni_, Thats rather odd, :p, I dont use dell, hate em. | 21:53 |
| omni_ | NictraSavios, yeah, i have it for the Windows computer being used here. However i want to print with my Linux computer also.. i've got to work w/ what i'm given. Dell did give me the installer from the CD.. just dont know where the drivers are :( | 21:54 |
| NictraSavios | ZykoticK9, true. But ive gotten a few tidbits. All they talk about in archlinux is openbox, getting that extra 0.0000001 milisecond and tmux vs screen., how desktop envirtoments suck and the terminals better. All in a sarcastic tone which i hate :P | 21:54 |

| NictraSavios | Maylow, Hey :P | 21:59 |
| Kyle__ | I've found howtos, but they're old, and don't follow. | 21:59 |

| dzone | Hi, a week ago i tried to install Ubuntu, then xubuntu and even Lubuntu but the same - Ubiquity crash during install. Is there fix for this problem already? | 22:00 |
| Maylow | I have a problem with mounting smbnetfs from fstab - it worked OK and then suddenly stopped | 22:00 |
| omni_ | Can anyone explain what the SNMP is when connecting between Ubuntu & Windows? Is it the same as the Domain Name? | 22:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | NictraSavios, doesntwork is one of my favs - "... is it on irc all day..." | 22:00 |
| sveinse | Anyone here with chroot and binfmt experience? I'm getting "no such file or directory" while executing "chroot armel-root/ /bin/bash" on a natty server. This works on my amd64 desktop, so I'm puzzled by it | 22:00 |
| fhhfd | I install them fine, but after some I cannot boot | 22:00 |
| Maylow | is there anybody familiar with smbnetfs? | 22:00 |
| NictraSavios | ZykoticK9, LMAO! epic. | 22:01 |
| Maylow | I went through all possible logs but nothing caugth my attention | 22:01 |

| Maylow | SMBNETFS, fastab, HELP! :) | 22:01 |
| dzone | Is ubiquity crash during install fixed already? | 22:02 |
| Maylow | NictraSavios, removing samba did not fix the problem... | 22:02 |
| fhhfd | Can aanyone help me? | 22:02 |
| NictraSavios | Maylow, Hmm. Maybe someone will be able to help, You just gotta wait I guess :P | 22:03 |
| Maylow | NictraSavios, hope you guess right :) it's not just about having it work again - I can work around it; but I want to know what's going on | 22:03 |
| Maylow | fhhfd, is that every time you boot? | 22:04 |
| PeterNL_ | Hi, cups won't find my parralel printer, my usb printer is working fine | 22:04 |
| BluesKaj | Maylow, is that similar to NFS where one exports shares with auto mount in fstab | 22:04 |
| NictraSavios | oh great. Ive been sitting on a chocolate easter egg for 45 minutes | 22:05 |
| atriv | Hi all, has anyone else noticed a serious slow down in network performance in natty narwhal when using a wireless usb adapter? | 22:05 |

| achter | re | 22:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | fhhfd, this isn't exactly the easiest thing in the world to do (and NO guarantee it will even work) but try adding "nomodeset" to your boot parameters - at the grub screen (hold shift at boot if you don't currently see it) use E to edit the linux line and add "nomodeset" after "quiet splash". Good luck. | 22:05 |
| Maylow | BluesKaj, I've got no experience with NFS - dunno | 22:05 |
| NictraSavios | Maylow, My house is pure linux. Mom, Sister, Dad, all use it. | 22:06 |

| BluesKaj | Maylow, this is for shares on windows pcs to mount on a linux pc ? | 22:07 |
| Metroshica | Is there anyway to pipe the output of a grep command into a tar command? | 22:07 |
| achter | isn`t "linux" really buullshit for Mom, Sister, Dad, all use it. | 22:07 |
| Maylow | NictraSavios, cool :) I'm on the same road, deleted windows for good from my laptop | 22:07 |
| PeterNL_ | Metroshica: grep | tar | 22:07 |
| maco | !language | achter | 22:07 |
| ubottu | achter: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 22:07 |
| Maylow | NictraSavios, the rest of the pcs will follow it; just need time to get used to it | 22:07 |
| NictraSavios | achter, They all use ubuntu. I use Arch | 22:07 |
| achter | maco, ok | 22:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | Metroshica, you can't really tar text output? what are you trying to do? | 22:07 |
| Metroshica | ZykoticK9, I'm trying to tar a few files in a directory that is full of a lot of files | 22:08 |
| Metroshica | I don't want to have to name them specifically, or move them to a temporary directory | 22:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Metroshica: you could pipe it to a text file, then compress the file | 22:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | Metroshica, ahhh I gotcha - sorry don't know, good luck. | 22:08 |
| NictraSavios | Metroshica, Gimme a sec to type it out | 22:09 |
| Maylow | BluesKaj, yes, the idea is to mount any windows network on boot; it was quite cool... until it stopped working on boot; if I dismount the smbnetfs and remount with sudo mount -a manually - it works again | 22:09 |
| Metroshica | k thanks | 22:09 |
| PeterNL_ | tar `ls | grep something` <tar options> | 22:09 |
| achter | Who knows gentoo on you? | 22:09 |
| LjL | achter: people in #gentoo i guess | 22:10 |
| PeterNL_ | that wil result in tar <grep output> <tar options> | 22:10 |
| NictraSavios | Metroshica, Tar -azf $(grep command) | 22:10 |
| bobo_ | is the file history created directly after the user has been added or he has to execute some commands in order this file to be created? | 22:10 |
| PeterNL_ | NictraSavios: is $() the same as ``? | 22:10 |
| NictraSavios | achter, I do. | 22:10 |
| achter | ok | 22:10 |
| maco | PeterNL_: almost. $() can be nested | 22:10 |
| PeterNL_ | Ah, nice. | 22:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | NictraSavios, -1 for using capital T in tar, +1 for useing $() ;) | 22:10 |
| Metroshica | thanks, what is the -a option for though? | 22:11 |
| Metroshica | is that necessary? | 22:11 |
| NictraSavios | Peterman, read man bash. Its command expansion, so echo $((5+6)) will output 11 | 22:11 |
| BluesKaj | Maylow, ok good , at least you have access , I don't see an automount command in the fstab entry you posted ,but not bein real familiar with smbnetfs I wouldn't know if that's important | 22:11 |
| PeterNL_ | I have tried to read it but never got past the first few alineas... | 22:11 |
| NictraSavios | ZykoticK9, When you boot into a text login everyday, You learn ALOT of tricks | 22:11 |
| PeterNL_ | man bash is a whole book by itself ;) | 22:11 |
| tolmun | man sex ;) | 22:12 |
| Maylow | BluesKaj, I don't believe an automount command is required - it used to work with exactly the same fstab line | 22:12 |
| NictraSavios | PeterNL_, man bash > bash.txt, open in libre office, save as pdf. Read on iPhone when your bored. Thats what i did :P | 22:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | PeterNL_, i still use the now old style `` for stuff, but all the cool kids use the $() | 22:12 |
| PeterNL_ | Why would I have an iphone? And you know pdf's are really bad for small screens? | 22:13 |
| robin0800 | Maylow, I assume you have a lan folder in media and I don't see a file system | 22:13 |
| indicator | So I installed ubuntu on my Thinkpad T520, right out of the box. I log in, and everything freezes | 22:13 |
| Maylow | robin0800, yes, I have | 22:13 |
| * PeterNL_ has an android phone and I'd read man bash in opera mini if I want to. | 22:13 | |

| Snakkah | I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid, and the Update Manager just popped up for a kernel update. The thing that's confusing me is that it says the kernel, 2.6.32.33, is NOT AUTHENTICATED. Wtf is going on here and is it safe to install it? | 22:15 |
| Maylow | extraclassic, don't remember. what's CIFS? | 22:15 |
| OerHeks | PeterNL_, even i know it is offtopic, no need for itunes to activate idevices. | 22:16 |
| robin0800 | Maylow, well cifs or something or is that fuse? | 22:16 |
| Maylow | robin0800, from terminal it runs ok | 22:16 |
| PeterNL_ | itunes is required for putting music on it, right? | 22:16 |
| Snakkah | ...well, that's strange. I just updated the repos and now they're fine. | 22:16 |
| PeterNL_ | I know there are a few itunes clone projects, but do they support all models? | 22:16 |
| Snakkah | Okay, nevermind. | 22:16 |

| extraclassic | Maylow: cifs is something you can use instead of smbfs in /etc/fstab | 22:17 |
| WinstonSmith | MonkeyDust: yep | 22:17 |
| ActionParsnip | PeterNL_: some versions or itunes work, apple stuff just has very low bang for buck | 22:17 |
| Snakkah | NictraSavios, yeah. Lucid. I rolled back to Lucid since I hated Natty. :P | 22:17 |
| WinstonSmith | apple is the exact opposite from FOSS | 22:18 |
| Maylow | robin0800, but after that I have all workgroups and computers listed in /media/lan | 22:18 |
| robin0800 | Maylow, sort the alerts and you should be good to go | 22:18 |

| sleon | ebuntu ubuntu | 22:18 |
| PeterNL_ | I should have a /dev/lp0, right? Well, i don't... | 22:18 |
| robin0800 | Maylow, is it needing a credentials file | 22:19 |
| jack__ | ita | 22:19 |

| Maylow | robin0800, it has one, in /root/.smb | 22:19 |
| WinstonSmith | \o/ | 22:19 |
| NictraSavios | Snakkah, No idea. But if your on ubuntu, I'm gonna say your not used to being stuck with major issues like a kernel not working. | 22:19 |
| NictraSavios | Snakkah, So i'll say, stick with what you got. | 22:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Jon--: should be in power or screensaver settings | 22:19 |
| NictraSavios | Snakkah, All 3.0 is , is a change in naming. before it was "MajorVersion.MiniorVersion.Revision.Patch" now its "MajorVersion.Minorversion.Patch" | 22:21 |

| Jon-- | NictraSavios, I'm aware, yet I don't see it saying anything about hibernating here, yet it is. Sleep should be suspend, correct? | 22:27 |
| extraclassic | Maylow: you could share out the whole C: drive instead of different folders | 22:27 |
| sleon | RickX: with aptitude dist-upgrade | 22:27 |

| io | RickX: did you follow that already? | 22:28 |
| Jon-- | I just don't see the setting for sleeping vs hibernating in power settings, just "Put computer to sleep", which seems to be hibernating my laptop. | 22:28 |
| WinstonSmith | Jon--: sleep = hibernate suspend = suspend | 22:28 |
| Maylow | robin0800, unfortunately there is absolutely nothing on 'smbnetfs gnome-keyring is not available.' in google.. | 22:28 |
| WinstonSmith | Jon--: read the thing properly | 22:28 |
| Jon-- | WinstonSmith, Stop being an asshole please I'm not trolling you. "Read the thing properly", when hibernate isn't written on the screen anywhere. It's NOT presented as being equivalent to hibernation | 22:29 |
| zvacet | RickX : you have to change source list because 9.10 is not supported any more | 22:29 |
| ActionParsnip | RickX: download it, you can mount the ISO, so you don't need to burn a CD | 22:29 |
| Maylow | extraclassic, the desired effect is to browse the network as a part of the file system - since I've tried it I don't want to fall back to the classic windows approach | 22:29 |

| LjL | Jon--, the fact that it's called "hibernate" in other operating systems doesn't mean Ubuntu has to call it the same way :P | 22:31 |
| pedro3005 | I just installed ubuntu 10.10 but when I try to boot it up, it comes to a black screen which blinks (doesn`t even get to grub) | 22:31 |

| robin0800 | Maylow, investigate credentials for smbnetfs might have to scour the manual | 22:31 |
| pedro3005 | what should I do | 22:31 |
| pedro3005 | ? | 22:31 |
| Maylow | extraclassic, don't want to sound so negative, but, I neither like nautilus, nor the network neighborhood | 22:32 |
| fizyplankton | pedro3005: try pressing left shift when it boots. that should force grub | 22:32 |
| zvacet | RickX : pay attention to source list entries on that page | 22:32 |
| Maylow | extraclassic, I'm using Krusader extensively | 22:32 |

| fizyplankton | robin0800: oh. thot it was left | 22:33 |
| Maylow | robin0800, the question is, what is the difference between mounting this fs as root during boot and mounting it as root from terminal | 22:33 |
| rsharma | Hi, When I connect my blackberry to my Laptop, Ubuntu does not find it, is there any form of a solution to this? | 22:33 |

| pedro3005 | ok, I`ll try that | 22:33 |
| pedro3005 | brb (hopefully not) | 22:33 |

| Squeezer | why does my laptop die twice faster under Ubuntu? | 22:37 |

| cypha | where is it located? | 22:38 |
| Maylow | robin0800, whatever, It's a total mystery and deeper understanding of samba and linux is required to solve it... | 22:38 |

| raubvogel | what do I need to do to completely remove all samba-related config files? | 22:40 |
| Jon-- | Psydoll, Sure, what program | 22:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Squeezer: sounds like a bug with acpi, manufacturers work close with microsoft so their stuff works. Supporting Windows gives more revenue than supporting other OSes | 22:40 |

| achter | rofl | 22:40 |
| Psydoll | Jon--: its aircrack i have all the compiler and everything | 22:40 |
| Jon-- | Psydoll, Make sure it's not in the packages already, compiling from source is a last resort. | 22:40 |
| Psydoll | i have already untared it | 22:40 |
| Jon-- | Do you require a later version? | 22:40 |
| Jon-- | aircrack-ng is in the repos for sure | 22:40 |
| Squeezer | ActionParsnip: what can I do to extend the battery life on my laptop for Linux then? I tried Gentoo as well, and I still get half as much battery life as I do with Windows. | 22:41 |

| Maylow | robin0800, this mounts a specific share I guess? | 22:41 |

| ActionParsnip | Squeezer: yes | 22:41 |

| robin0800 | Maylow, yes network share from the nas drive | 22:42 |

| Maylow | robin0800, extraclassic, BluesKaj, NictraSavios, goodbye | 22:43 |
| ikonia | Psydoll: you're not learning anything, you are just asking what to type | 22:43 |
| io | Psydoll: or more of a 'do it for me' type? in which case using the repositories is a great choice for you | 22:43 |
| WinstonSmith | Squeezer: it governs how modern CPUs vary their frequency | 22:44 |

| edmund_ | hi. I've had an idea and want to know if it's possible, or if anyone can tell me how it would be done. I know how you select a session when you login, i.e ubuntu classic, xfce, etc. I was wondering if it is possible to create an extra session to add to this list, that keeps the same appearance options for that one session. The reason is I want to try out awn ontop of gnome 2, so delete all the regular menu's- but I want to easily go back- | 23:00 |
| edmund_ | so I tohught to make an extra session where I can configure it how I want, then easily switch between sessions. is this possible. Thank you. | 23:00 |

| PeterNL_ | gnome/metacity prefs are stored per-user so it would be difficult to have two sets of settings for the same user | 23:02 |

| ActionParsnip | dijonyummy123: acetoneiso can do it, the cli is childishly simple | 23:12 |

| rinkukokiri | WinstonSmith, i don't know, but you said loopdevice only supported iso files... i got a bit confused | 23:20 |
| WinstonSmith | gohdan: acetoniso is crap (IMHO) compared with cdemu | 23:20 |
| robin0800 | PeterNL_, why should one work? | 23:21 |
| * gohdan doesnt use either one of them | 23:21 | |

| T3rm | Hey all, bit of an issue, I'm getting: Can't open /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf: Permission denied when attempting to start dhcpd3 | 23:24 |
| WinstonSmith | ActionParsnip: i dont need that but kthxx | 23:24 |
| gohdan | winut: probably hooks a windows kernel api so its a no go | 23:24 |
| winut | but works on osx? | 23:24 |
| EagleScreen | ikonia: I and not launching this from terminal, so I dont know the command, i am using packagekit in its graphical way | 23:25 |
| gohdan | winut: software can be ported? | 23:25 |
| winut | ok, osx kernel source is open | 23:25 |
| ActionParsnip | WinstonSmith: well, you asked. I assumed you needed it. If you don't need it please don't ask and waste my time | 23:25 |
| ikonia | EagleScreen: can you launch synamptic ? | 23:25 |
| T3rm | I've used chmod a-x, chmod 777, 775, chown, can't figger it out | 23:25 |

| === miguel is now known as Guest60205 | ||
| WinstonSmith | winut: what do you need from that disc? | 23:29 |
| EagleScreen | ikonia: yes, I can launch synaptic because it is executed via gksudo, but administrative actions which needs policykit authotization, are unavailable for me | 23:29 |
| ikonia | EagleScreen: just trying to work out what else you've changed | 23:29 |
| winut | i need it to authorise, thats it | 23:29 |
| gohdan | winut: which game are you trying to play? | 23:30 |
| winut | ie mount properly | 23:30 |
| winut | its a software sampler | 23:30 |
| DasEi | T3rm: when will the scipt be run ? manually or at bootup ? | 23:30 |
| WinstonSmith | winut: but you are aware that anything on that disc protected by safedisc will not run on linux? | 23:30 |
| DasEi | T3rm: please put nick in answers | 23:30 |
| gohdan | can not into break characters winut | 23:30 |
| EagleScreen | ikonia: I told you, I only have created a new user in admin group, do you want me to create another new user? | 23:30 |
| ikonia | EagleScreen: no | 23:30 |
| winut | what about using daemon tools net via iscsi, would that work? | 23:31 |
| T3rm | DasEi: Manually, trying to put up an access point | 23:31 |
| ikonia | EagleScreen: a new user would not cause this, something else must have changed | 23:31 |
| winut | i can run the app but it needs 1 x cd auth | 23:31 |
| WinstonSmith | winut: no. anything from windows with copy protection will not run under linux | 23:31 |
| winut | like on windows | 23:31 |
| EagleScreen | ikonia: new users different then the original installation user might be bad pre-configured with adduser | 23:31 |
| T3rm | DasEi: when run, I get this in syslog: dhcpd: Can't open /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf: Permission denied | 23:32 |
| gohdan | sample discs with copy protections? what is this i dont even... | 23:32 |
| T3rm | Can't fathom why | 23:32 |
| WinstonSmith | winut: is it a game? | 23:32 |
| winut | no, its a music app | 23:32 |
| ikonia | EagleScreen: that's very true, but I'm sure you will have checked this | 23:32 |
| winut | with amazing filters | 23:32 |
| agentgasmask | Hello all, I'm getting this error: http://pastebin.com/GvpRcfg0 followed by a "Start: Applet not initialized" in Firefox. How can I fix this? | 23:32 |
| DasEi | T3rm: you will have to own the script to the desired user and use visudo to allow this script acting with superprivilegs then | 23:32 |
| EagleScreen | ikonia: will do right now | 23:32 |
| T3rm | DasEi: running as root | 23:32 |
| WinstonSmith | winut: if you really need that app you will have to use windows or install windows inside a virtual machine | 23:33 |
| gohdan | winut: lmms has not enough filters for you, freedom hater? | 23:33 |
| winut | i bought emulator x3 as well, it runs with bugs though | 23:33 |
| * gohdan :P | 23:33 | |
| EagleScreen | ikonia: the expected way to add a new admin user is just "adduser --ingroup admin newuser" ?? | 23:33 |
| ikonia | EagleScreen: no, that just created a user in the admin group | 23:33 |

| gohdan | i have logged in as another user via 'su -l foo' and would like to have a graphical program launched as 'foo' run in my X session. how would one go about accomplishing this task? | 23:36 |
| DasEi | T3rm: neither do I, might be the apparmor in front, as you tried owning dhcpd.conf to root already, but I don't understand the whole syntax | 23:37 |
| wtracy | gohdan: you should be able to just run foo and have it do what you described | 23:38 |

| WinstonSmith | chrome__: that is the latest | 23:42 |
| winut | gohdan, if you used emu filters you would be a freedom hater | 23:42 |
| wtracy | gohdan, passing -m to su should cause the environment variables to be preserved | 23:42 |
| WinstonSmith | chrome__: nobody can answer that but you | 23:42 |
| wtracy | gohdan, now try: DISPLAY=:0.0 foo | 23:42 |

| znull | jetole : hmm what should I do? install older packages? | 23:46 |
| perscitus | winut, It's directly related between Ubuntu hardware support and my freakin monitor. | 23:47 |
| jetole | znull: or try running: apt-get install --reinstall ca-certificates-java | 23:47 |
| znull | jetole : /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: ca-certificates-java is broken or not fully installed | 23:47 |
| jetole | znull: well you can always download the source and compile it yourself | 23:47 |
| wtracy | gohdan, otherwise, you can break it into two commands: "export DISPLAY=:0.0" and then "foo" | 23:47 |

| DasEi | sam_bris: though a bunch of other stuff included, ubuntu-restricted-extras will provide it | 23:54 |
| WinstonSmith | sam_bris: not the whole thing it seems. i have ffmpeg and ffplay. apt-cache search ffplay also gives package ffmpeg. so check synaptic | 23:54 |
| Computer-Freak | Scunizi, ctrl + scroll down ?? | 23:54 |
| WinstonSmith | Scunizi: windows key + mouse wheel | 23:54 |
| Scunizi | Computer-Freak, that's what I though.. just using the mouse wheel.. and it worked a couple times then quit.. | 23:54 |
| WinstonSmith | Scunizi: windows key + mouse wheel | 23:55 |
| Scunizi | WinstonSmith, THAT DID IT !!! Thanks | 23:55 |
| WinstonSmith | Scunizi: ctrl + mouse wheel is to zoom in programs not the whole screen | 23:55 |
| sam_bris | ffplay plays the file. Still no sound. I hear sound on the android device that recorded it.. | 23:55 |
| Scunizi | WindPower, I must have been pushing the Win key without realizing it.. originally I had meant to just enlarge the text in one window.. | 23:56 |

| Computer-Freak | Scunizi, lol, i have thin fingers but i still have the problem :P | 23:57 |
| s0up | thanks qin :) | 23:58 |
| RocketSnail | if I defrag my Windows computer, and download ubuntu 11.04 to a RW cd drive, | 23:58 |

| qin | RocketSnail: Side by side is silly way of installing multiple systems. | 23:59 |
| rinkukokiri | qin, yes most windows users should defrag their installation (unless they use win7) because of risk of data loss during the partitioning process (yes the risk exists.) | 23:59 |
