PolahJorge: Pides tu pregunta en #ubuntu-es, es el canal de ayuda en español.00:00
SmashcatAh done it - permissions had to be 700 for the script it was calling as root00:00
Polahquaestio, correct.00:00
nit-witCat-Meow, b=not sure really you have about 1400 aps installed in a regular install, your guess would be aas good as ours. You might install conky so you can see what is being used.00:00
julieSmashcat, told you :P00:00
quaestiobrown_fern: no worries, the system is really new and relatively powerful (4 GB ram, asus e-350, but it is a netbook, so no disc drive), so I'll definitely use the full ubuntu distro. My only problem is the small usb stick00:00
rationalOgrelouet: are you running sudo mkfs.vfat? or just mkfs.vfat?00:00
Cat-Meowalright00:01
Smashcatjulie: Well, not exactly ;-) It was 755 before, so was running fine from the cmd line00:01
julieSmashcat, I didn't give sufficient details indeed00:01
brown_fernquaestio: Wow, was I off-base! :-[00:01
Smashcatjulie: Well thanks anyway ;-)00:01
julie:)00:01
rationalOgreCat-Meow: run sudo dmesg -C then wait for it to happen, after reboot run dmesg and see if it says anything at the top00:02
Cat-Meowalright thank you00:02
julieSmashcat, BTW did it show the error in your syslog?00:03
anadonHey, I'm using the Ubuntu 11.4 x64 live CD to try and diagnose an issue with my MALBAL Lotus laptop.  I'm trying to find out the extent of damage to my SSD, and whether the MOBO is about to die because of kernel panics that occur half the time when booting this CD.  If this is not the right channel, what is?00:03
Smashcatjulie: heh, my little script works now so I can shut down the machine from a web browser. Ah, didn't check for an error after it worked. I chmodded the file first00:03
louetrationalOgro: yes. What does "Device partition expected, not making filesystem on entire device '/dev/sdc' (use -I to override)" means ?00:03
louetmean*00:03
quaestiobrown_fern: no prob, what counts is your willingness to help, thx! looking forward to using ubuntu :-)00:03
=== ctharvey_ is now known as ctharvey
rationalOgrelouet: Oh, you need to have partitioned the drive first00:04
rationalOgrelouet: is there a /dev/sdb1?00:04
julieSmashcat, I don't see the point of clicking a button in your browser to restart instead of the regular option on top right :P00:04
Polahanadon: Are you experiencing kernel panics when the SSD is unmounted?00:04
runknerhi, i cant use åäö leeters in apache, what should i do00:04
rationalOgresorry /dev/sdc100:04
rationalOgrelouet: sorry /dev/sdc100:05
anadonhello?00:05
Smashcatjulie: This machine lives in the bottom of an arcade cabinet - there's no keyboard or maouse attached, just joysticks/buttons. So now I can shut the machine down from my phone instead of just pulling the plug out of the wall ;-)00:05
Polahjulie: I've noticed that using the built-in GNOME shutdown doesn't actually shut the power off. It continues to power my USB ports, since my mouse light stays on. I set up a script to shut down properly and halt power to the USB ports as well.00:05
Smashcatjulie: It boots into MAME00:05
rationalOgreanadon: We hear you, if someone is able to answer, they will. Wait a few minutes then re-ask the question.00:05
julieSmashcat, I see, well that is nice automation00:06
juliePolah, that has to do with power saving options00:06
rsharmaHi, I would like to know how can i remove the Kubuntu apps installed inside my Ubuntu system00:07
SmashcatAnyway thanks! later00:07
Polahjulie: There's no option in my power management to halt power to the USB ports when shutting down.00:07
juliePolah, not what I meant but are you sure you're choosing to shut it down and not hybernating or putting it to sleep?00:08
brown_fernquaestio: Well thank you! Hey, still consider alternatives to Ubuntu for this particular stick anyways, I install to USB stick also but use 4 GB sticks as the cut-off for Ubuntu. Can one go lower than that? Of course, but they then dip into user space, or the area where user-based changes would be made. Good luck with it in any event!00:08
anadonHey, I'm using the Ubuntu 11.4 x64 live CD to try and diagnose an issue with my MALBAL Lotus laptop.  I'm trying to find out the extent of damage to my SSD, and whether the MOBO is about to die because of kernel panics that occur half the time when booting this CD.  If this is not the right channel, what is?00:08
Polahjulie: Yes. It still powers my rear USB ports, so I just have a little button on my panel that runs shutdown -P instead.00:08
rationalOgreanadon: What do you mean by "extent of damage"?00:08
runknerhi, i cant use se swedish chars in apache2, what should i do00:08
sakshaUbuntu is great!00:08
Polahanadon: Did you see my message above? Do you still get kernel panics on a LiveCD with the SSD unmounted?00:09
juliePolah, that's weird!00:09
res22_saksha: hell yeah00:09
rationalOgreanadon: i.e. do you normally use Ubuntu or something else?00:09
sakshafuck wind00:09
LjLsaksha: mind your language please, and keep it about ubuntu support00:09
anadonrationalOgre: I don't know if I'm looking at near or total system failure or just that the SSD needs replacing.  I've never dealt with hardware damage to this extent before.00:10
sakshasorry00:10
anadonrationalOgre: I usually dual boot Ubuntu and win 7 pro00:10
b0n1hey00:10
Polahanadon: Have you considered running SMART tests from Ubuntu's Disk Utility. Assuming SSDs have SMART tests or some kind of equivalent00:11
rationalOgreanadon: Ok. Are you getting tons of bad sectors?00:11
anadonThe BIOS told me that the SSD was all of a sudden dead--totally00:11
BBHoodI have a dual boot setup (Natty and Win XP) with two different hard disks.  Using a live CD, I can see both of them, but booting into natty, I can only see the linux disk.  How do I mount the windows disk and have it always done at startup?00:11
anadonalso, io errors often happen when I boot the CD, which I think points to a mobo failure00:11
sakshaAnyone know any mirc client better than xchat?00:12
Azelphursaksha: mirc client? do you mean IRC?00:12
nawkUnity 11.04 is an epic fail00:12
tmgwhy?00:12
anadonkinda00:12
rationalOgreanadon: sounds like a possibility. try installing smartmontools00:12
b0n1i added the script 11_Windows in /etc/grub.d the source of the script is : http://pastebin.com/Cdef7J1f00:13
b0n1i have windows as /dev/sdb100:13
b0n1i cant see any entry in the boot list of grub and i dont know why00:13
b0n1on update-grub i get ... Adding Windows... but the boot list remains the same00:13
rationalOgreanadon: And see if you can bring up the smart information for the drive00:13
nawkmang, it looks like as soon as you uncheck(i.e. disable) Desktop Wall, your WM breaks00:13
anadonrationalOgre: do you know what a mobo failure looks like exactly00:13
sakshaforgiveness is that I understand little of computer00:13
Azelphur!better | saksha00:14
ubottusaksha: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.00:14
yassinehi all im trying to boot from ubuntu live cd but when i try to hit the test ubuntu button nothing happens absolutly nothing00:14
b0n1i have 2 linux installed so i dont know what grub actually is active . but i tried it on both with no success00:14
rationalOgreanadon: A total failure would be a complete inability to boot the system.00:14
yassineanyone have an idea what could be the problem?00:14
Polahyassine: Could be a corrupt burn on the CD.00:14
rationalOgreanadon: What you have would be an intermittent or sporadic failure.00:14
tmgeveryone is talking about unity fails and i noticed it to be best ui i was using so far... am i alien ? ;p00:14
sakshaI downloaded xchat but I guess there is something better?00:14
rationalOgreanadon: Possibly of just one of the bridge chips.00:14
Polahsaksha: Depends what you're looking for.00:14
nawkThis is true even if you are back in Ubuntu Classic00:14
Azelphursaksha: xchat is a very good client, it's one of the best. But ultimately it depends on what your looking for00:14
sakshaokis00:15
Azelphurtmg: not really, I like unity too, I think people just get angry with the change00:15
rationalOgreanadon: Either way, you're looking at probably sending it back to Malibal to be repared.00:15
Azelphurtmg: usually the people that are too stupid to form a constructive argument, xD00:15
rationalOgreanadon: The question is,  is the ssd dead too? Or is it just the mobo.00:15
tmgAzelphur: ahh... well , i agree :)00:15
b0n1Azelphur,  but there are some bugs with unity , i think thats the major argument against it00:15
rationalOgreanadon: where are you seeing the IO errors? While booting?00:16
BBHoodactually hold that thought, I must depart00:16
Azelphurb0n1: yep, doesn't work for everyone it's pretty new tech, if it doesn't work for you you should be filing a bug report rather than coming here and saying "Unity sucks" or something else dumb :)00:16
anadonrationalOgre: looking into it now...I'm seeing them while booting, then I have to force shutdown and try again00:16
AzelphurYou can always use gnome 2 in the mean time.00:16
nawkDoes anyone want to try (or dare to) unchecking Desktop Wall in CCSM00:16
nawk?00:16
rationalOgreanadon: paste the output of dmesg somewhere00:17
nawkin 11.0400:17
b0n1Azelphur, i am not someone who is claiming Unity sucks everywhere i just tell my experience and i did already do some bug reports00:17
Azelphurnawk: been there done that, my laptops are unity+cube :D00:17
IstanI just set up a VPN connection to a server on my ubuntu laptop, suppose someone was monitoring my traffic would all my traffic be encrypted (incl DNS requests and URL requests?)00:17
nit-witnawk, did it long ago, t will remove the side panel, would you like a link?00:17
Azelphurb0n1: that's fair enough :)00:17
b0n1just wanted to tell tmg  the reason why there are some people that dont like unity00:17
louetrationalOgre: sorry for late. It's a usb key. So there's only one partition. I use it to put ubuntu.00:18
brcasperi can't wait until gnome 3 is fully supported... if it's ever gonna be00:18
nit-wit*it00:18
nit-witbrcasper, it is in fedora 15, try it out.00:18
Polahbrcasper: Apparently 11.10 might support it, but they'll stop distributing with GNOME2/3 preinstalled so if you install fresh on it then you'll have to install GNOME manually afterwards. Of course, I might have read wrongly and be mistaken.00:18
nit-witarchinux as well00:18
louetdelay*00:19
rationalOgrelouet: right but the single partition should be /dev/sdc100:19
rationalOgrelouet: /dev/sdc is the whole drive. You have to have a partition to write a filetable on first.00:19
brcaspernit-wit, i happen to be using it with natty with really minor issues...  it's almost perfect, at least everything i tested so far... i don't like RPM-based distros, prefer ubuntu00:19

flaiksanyone have any experience with my problem ?00:26
rationalOgreanadon: I'm sorry, diagnosing a failing motherboard is long and involved. You can google the subject if you like. Basically it involves stripping the system down to bare bones, shutting off stuff in the bios, then re-enabling and reinstalling stuff 1 at a time until you find out what is failing. If you make it all the way through and it still does it then you most likely have a bad motherboard.00:26

tensorpuddinghtml_inprogress: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Share-files-with-someone00:32

macnix@milamber if I run traceroutes to the IPs, they stop at the firewall so I can't get to the actual machines, to confirm that the IPs have been allocated correctly00:53
rationalOgrewhen it asks what you want to change to00:53
k-rAd-can natty read and write to HFS+ partitions without corruption.  a backup drive.  sensitive info.00:53
louetrationalOgre: 0=zero ?00:53

rationalOgrelouet: you can just use c00:53
macnix@milamber but they all respond to pings and they didn't until I set them up on the server00:53
benccI'm setting soft nofile and hard nofile in /etc/security/limits.conf. it affects all user except root00:53
benccwhy?00:53
rationalOgreyou don't have to have the 000:53
nimbioticsIs it worth updating to 11.04? TIA!00:54
macnix@milamber I have NEVER had this problem before on Ubuntu and did quiet a few multi-IP setups00:54
rationalOgreit will say something about changing to W95 FAT32 (LBA)00:54
milambermacnix: it really doesn't seem like an ubuntu problem. sounds like a network setup issue. 1 sec.00:54
rationalOgrelouet: do you want it to be bootable?00:54
louetrationalOgre: done! It's the last step I hope?00:54
louetrationalOgre: no00:55
rationalOgrelouet: ok00:55
vlt_Hello. Can anyone recommend a cli music player that will play wav files from local file system and can play without gaps when I skip to the next track (or even cross-fade)?00:55
k-rAd-can natty read and write to HFS+ partitions without corruption.  a backup drive.  sensitive info.00:55
louetI'll select it when I boot00:55
macnix@milamber that's what I thought, but I need ammo if I'm going to tell the biggest DC in Europe that they got their network config screwed :D00:55
rationalOgrelouet: then, use w to (write partition table and exit)00:55
Dwade09how do i find how much mem my video card has?00:55
rationalOgreand then you can sudo mkfs.vfat blah blah /dev/sdc100:55

macnix@Dwade09 lshw is your best bet00:56
DavidePalmIf I re-install a fresh copy of 11.04, will this mess with my current installation of GRUB?  Will it cause me to have to reconfigure grub to access my windows 7 partition?00:56

macnix@Dwade09 np ;)00:56
louetrationalOgre: "The partition table has been altered" what's that?00:56
louetjust after typing w00:56
rationalOgrelouet: That's what you want to happen00:57
rationalOgrelouet: Now you can run the mkfs.vfat command (using sudo of course)00:57
louetserious00:57
louetoh yes yes wait00:57
louetrationalOgre: so it's "sudo mkfs.vfat -F 32  /dev/sdc1" (with the 1 or not?)00:58

brown_fernDavidPalm: If Ubuntu 11.04  and grub found your Windows 7 the last time and you did not need to manually configure any files, then you should not need to reconfigure any files the second time it's installed. Though that's the lazy way to do it, I'd ask more informed people than myself about preventing grub from reinstalling. For your reading, should you need to configure Grub2. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub201:07
hwrdprknsvlt_: thanks01:07
macnix@Dwade09 ok, it doesn't show memory, but it tells you detailed info about the device01:07
rationalOgremilamber: no. was checking to see if it was mounting the device.01:07
macnix@Dwade09 since it's Intel, I would think you assign it memory in BIOS01:07
macnix@Dwade09 it's a guess01:07
macnix@Dwade09 I googled for this https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=Mobile+4+Series+Chipset+Integrated+Graphics+Controller+version+9+memory&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=01:07

matt444I'm having trouble with wmii.  I try to tag a window using Mod + 2, however it moves ALL windows to this new tag01:10
rationalOgrewhere /dev/sdc1 is a properly partitioned usb drive01:10
gohdanmetoo: it was the transport i was was referring to. its the method in which it verifies the particular user01:10
macnix@rationalOgre double-check with fdisk -l ?01:10

macnix@rationalOgre sudo !!01:10
louetrationalOgre: I also tried to fix the problem from windows and the same problem (permissions is denied)01:11
rationalOgremacnix: just went through the fdisk process01:11
macnix@rationalOgre so you're 100% that sdc1 is the new partition on the USB that you've just created, yes?01:11
rationalOgrelouet: So, either there's a write protect feature on it somewhere that you aren't seeing, OR the thumb drive is just failing.01:11

macnix@rationalOgre oh, sorry, just noticed that you were helping louet out actually01:14
rationalOgremacnix: Worth a shot.01:14
rationalOgrelouet: try unplugging it and plugging it back in, then sudo umount /media/whatever-it-is01:15
macnix@louet yes, give it a go and triple check that it's not write protected. but then it wouldn't have re-written the partition table if it was01:15
macnix@rationalOgre am I right?01:15
macnix@milamber any ideas?01:16
milambermacnix: no, everything looks ok . . . still working on it though01:16
macnixanyone else care to jump in on the multi IP issue I'm having on lenny lts ?01:16

macnix@milamber so all 3 IPs appear in ifconfig (same as in my pastie)01:29
mrdebwhat is "wxgtk"?01:29
allballs10.10 -> 11.04 removed -96 -- now I have no nvidia support.01:29
brown_fernLesterwood: A KVM switch would let you use your hardware as you're suggesting...01:29
mrdeballballs: good to know. can you use lts?01:29
rodger_nc11.04 boots with unity and my video card does not handle this - so "during the boot process" after a 10 seconds of a black screen - the boot continues with a different monitor drive ("I guess") and it finishes the boot process and lets me log-in.   How do I stop the X unity process during the boot so 11.04 never uses unity?01:29
mrdebuse lts and then upgrade your gpu01:29
macnix@milamber nmap only returns the open ports for eth0, nothing for eth0:0 or eth0:101:29

mrdeb is wxgtk needed01:44
Skaperenwell, it seems that Ubuntu downloads updates during install even if I don't check the box to allow that (I never do)01:44

mrdebgohdan: do you knwo what it is01:44
rationalOgremacnix: What targets are you feeding nmap? The ip's you set?01:44

macnix@rationalOgre only eth0 works. eth0:0 & eth0:1 are both down01:45
Skaperenif I unplug the network while installing, I get a system that works fine ... except the unity won't run ... don't care about that01:45

Skaperenmrdeb: if I install w/o network, I get "nouveau" instead of "nvidia" ... nourveau works fine01:48

macnix@rationalOgre don't think so. this is the route -n output: https://gist.github.com/93472542fb4d0ca5cc27#file_route_n.output.sh01:54
Skaperenhiexpo: it has "nouveau" now ... if I upgrade it will replace "nouveau" with "nvidia" ... since "nvidia" is (currently) broken, I want to avoid that and stay with "nouveau"01:54
hiexpook go in synaptic and you will see aselection marked for upgrades open it and deselect nvidia01:54
robin0800Skaperen, it won't01:55
rodger_ncrobin0800: I will do this and BRB01:55
Skaperenrobin0800: it won't what?01:55
ViN86bo ringer here01:55
robin0800Skaperen, it will not upgrade the driver01:56
=== Xerrao is now known as Xerrao[Detached]
milambermacnix: can you ssh to either of the alias ips locally?01:56
rationalOgremacnix: sudo route add -host 95.211.14.195 dev eth0:001:56
Skaperenrobin0800: but it did upgrade the driver on a computer at work (doing a general upgrade of everything)01:56
macnix@milamber no01:56
macnix@rationalOgre @milamber I think I'm onto something01:57
Skaperenrobin0800: need to blacklist "nvidia" somehow ... before it gets installed, to prevent it from being installed01:57
brown_fernLesterwood: Consider some of these KVM switches by TRENDnet. http://www.trendnet.com/products/products.asp?cat=105    Also, let me know that your not away-from-keyboard by simply saying something.01:57
macnix@rationalOgre will try your suggestion after this01:57
robin0800Skaperen, only if nvidia is in use in the first place01:57
rationalOgremacnix: ok01:57
ubuntuguyHow do I use the bluetooth in ubuntu, like send files01:58
Skaperenrobin0800: I suspect the driver switched because something else switched dependency, previously depended on nouveau, and now depends on nvidia01:58
macnixrationalOgre milamber if you look at the pastie, I had the gateway in the wrong place01:58
Skaperenrobin0800: thing is, if nvidia gets in there, I'm hosed and have to re-install01:58
ubuntuguymy iphone isn't showing up and I connected it01:59
macnix@rationalOgre @milamber  I've put it on eth0, works the same (or doesn't work...)01:59
robin0800Skaperen, if you wish to blacklist it do so01:59
macnix@rationalOgre giving the route -n thing a go01:59
macnix@rationalOgre sorry, route add01:59
Skaperenrobin0800: how is that done?  is it just a deselect?  (i thought that could only be done if it has already been selected)01:59
milambermacnix: restart networking?02:00
rationalOgremacnix: once you have, try sshing to that IP02:00
macnix@milamber output is: restart: Unknown instance:02:00
macnix@rationalOgre yes sir, that works when doing it locally02:00
robin0800Skaperen, the blacklist file is in /etc/modbrobe.d02:01
rationalOgremacnix: Should be able to do it remotely now as well.02:01
macnix@rationalOgre does not work remotely02:01
robin0800Skaperen, the blacklist file is in /etc/modbprobe.d02:01
macnixsame output when ssh-ing with -vvv02:01
Skaperenrobin0800: that just blacklists loading the module ... I wanted to blacklist the package ... but, OK, I'll try just blacklisting the module02:02
Skaperenrobin0800: BTW, the 11.04 installer has a number of problems that are new since after 10.10 ... do I need to file separate bug reports on each?  And is there any hope of getting a fixed ISO before 11.10?02:04
feydCan anyone help me with deleting stuff to the trash can in XFCE?02:04
tioxGoodness, the place looks dead. Good for me because I have a question.02:06
Skaperentiox: g/l02:06
tioxIs there anything special I can install for Ubuntu if my PC has a "Dolby Sound Room"emblem stuck on it?02:06
ubuntuguyWhen I try to send file over bluetooth in ubuntu I get "Unable to find service record" what does this mean? How can I fix it?02:06
=== oem is now known as freegeekclass
macnix@rationalOgre @milamber ssh-ing on anything but eth0 IP doesn't even hit the sshd process02:07
rationalOgremacnix: remotely, correct?02:07
=== the__dreamer is now known as jiohdi
Skaperentiox: I bet that's some Windows software that was pre-installed on your PC when it was made ... do you believe it is hardware?02:07
macnix@rationalOgre yes02:07
macnix@rationalOgre it works locally thought02:07
macnix@rationalOgre after the route add thing02:07
tioxNot entirely sure. At the momentI am having issues with window decoration in Firefox, lol02:07
rationalOgremacnix: Ok.02:07
macnix@rationalOgre ticket for networking?02:08
braxtonHow can I calibrate my Logitech F310 gamepad?02:08
braxtonI mean configure?02:08
macnix@rationalOgre issue for networking team I meant02:08
macnix@rationalOgre I still don't get why do the pings work?!?!02:08
macnix@rationalOgre @milamber I can ping the bloody IPs, but that's it02:09
Skaperentiox: what is it you want to do that makes you think this "Dolby Sound Room" will do it for you?  If you want to edit audio files, try "audacity"02:09
braxtonDoes no one know how to configure a gamepad here?02:09
rationalOgremacnix: where did you get the ip's from?02:09
rationalOgremacnix: are they all IP's you own?02:09
milambermacnix: nc -zvw 1 <host_here> <port_here>02:10
tioxOh, no, I was just curious if it held any significance as far as drivers for Ubuntu.02:10
Skaperentiox: you thought it was some hardware02:10
tioxSo it's a software thing. Alright.02:10
Skaperentiox: can't say for 100% sure ... but I am about 98% sure02:11
gohdanubuntuguy: the phone is receiving the file or the computer?02:11
macnix@milamber all are successful02:11
ubuntuguyI'm trying to send files to phone02:11
macnix@milamber but that's since the route add02:11
hiexpoSkaperen, what nvidia car you have ?02:11
hiexpo^card02:11
Skaperenhiexpo: not card ... just chip on mainboard ... 6150SE02:11
macnix@milamber I ran that nc on the server02:12
macnix@milamber running it locally it just hangs02:12
gohdanubuntuguy: "Unable to find service record" is a cryptic and general OBEX push error02:12
milambermacnix: doing it remotely?02:13
szalanyone can give me a hand w/ dual-booting 2 Linuxen (*buntu and openSUSE)?  for some reason I can't get *buntu to boot on its own; I have it up now through Super Grub2 Disk, but that's of course not a lasting state of affairs..  I'd preferrably like to chainload one from the other, doesn't matter in what order02:13
ubuntuguyMeaning?02:13
macnix@milamber hangs02:13
macnix@milamber oh, hang on02:13
braxtonCan someone help me configure a USB gamepad?02:13
macnix@milamber only for eth0:0 it hangs, eth0:1 seems fine02:13
macnix@milamber let me try this a few times02:13
hiexpoSkaperen, so it is the nvidia nForce 430,02:14
milambermacnix: have you tried ssh to eth0:1?02:14
Skaperenhiexpo: if you want all the gory details on it ... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=177790502:14
szalmoin milamber..  where do I have to put you? ;)  #kubuntu-de?  or Arch-Linux-related?02:14
macnix@milamber yes, eth0:1 works02:14
hiexpoSkaperen, oh your on ubuntu 11.04  ?02:14
Skaperenhiexpo: it's definitely NOT a 430 ... I have a 430 on another machine at work ... maybe the same chip, but definitely not a 430 card here02:14
Skaperenhiexpo: yup, 11.04 for this machine with the problem02:15
hiexpoSkaperen, wanna solve the problem revert to 10.04lts02:16
ranilynnhi all my wireless will detect wireless networks but won't connect can anyone help02:16
macnix@milamber rename eth0:0 to eth0:2, restarting networking02:16
macnixrenamed*02:16
Skaperenhiexpo: then no unity02:16
macnix@milamber nice, we're getting somewhere02:16
hiexpoSkaperen, so unity is broke anyways02:16
rationalOgremacnix: Don't forget to update your route02:16
macnixSIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address \n Failed to bring up eth0:2.02:16
Skaperenhiexpo: really?02:17
hiexpoSkaperen, yup02:17
macnix@rationalOgre do you think it's related to the error?02:17
gohdanubuntuguy: might want to try repairing the devices and see if you can get by with that. otherwise may want to stick around for someone more familiar with bluez02:17
rsharmaHi guys, I have a question - After Ubuntu 11.04 will the Ubuntu OS drop the GNOME enviorment and completley replace it with UNITY?02:17
macnix@rationalOgre ok, so all the routes got re-created after restarting networking02:17
ubuntuguyHow do I "fix" device?02:17
hiexpoSkaperen, it has many problems to work out and very bad reviews02:17
MKULTRA2K12i highly doubt that rsharma02:18
macnix@rationalOgre and they're using this very weird IP address which doesn't appear anywhere in my ifconfig02:18
Skaperenhiexpo: when I boot the liveCD 11.04 ... it works fine there ... and I actually like the new UI02:18
rsharmaOh alright, because I honestly just can not get used to UNITY, it is more of a netbook release then a desktop in my oppnion02:18
macnix@rationalOgre where does route take it's config from? or how does it create route -n rules?02:18
ranilynn hi all my wireless will detect wireless networks but won't connect can anyone help02:18
xanguarsharma: unity is the default desktop from now on02:18
robin0800rsharma, no unity is on top of gnome instead of gnome shell02:18
Skaperenhiexpo: once installed to HD ... then troubles02:18
rsharmaCan you explain, "gnome shell" I am kind of new right now02:19
hiexpoSkaperen, yes because of the updates of coarse02:19
macnix@milamber rationalOgre ok, so I'm pretty sure someone else is using my IP address02:19
Skaperenhiexpo: so you think I should give up on unity and give it a try again at 11.10 ?02:19
MKULTRA2K12i like 10.1002:19
milambermacnix: possible.02:19
ZeZuAre the linux-headers-${version} not configured ?   I know modules build ok but If I try to build my own I always get an error that they are unconfigured ...  I know I've gotten past this before but I think I cheated and installed the source and use the make command to prepare the headers instead of doing it the "ubuntu" way02:19
macnix@milamber rationalOgre not sure how that's possible, but otherwise SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address doesn't make sense02:19
SkaperenMKULTRA2K12: I have 10.10 on my desktop at work02:19
gohdanrsharma: gnome shell is a gnome environment meant for use on netbooks02:19
SkaperenMKULTRA2K12: it works quite well02:19
MKULTRA2K12i need a job lol02:20
SkaperenMKULTRA2K12: do you have usable programmer skillz?02:20
mrdebMKULTRA2K12: good luck02:20
MKULTRA2K12not really02:20
hiexpoSkaperen, i would personally but that is me i run 10.04 and no problems that i can not work out   but i also understand linux so that also helps02:20
MKULTRA2K12yeah ive built linux from scratch so ubuntus cake02:20
hiexpoSkaperen, unity was a mistake02:20
rationalOgremacnix: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-add-permanent-static-routes-in-ubuntu.html02:20
SkaperenMKULTRA2K12: so you want beginner entry level?02:20
MKULTRA2K12sure02:21
milambermacnix: nmap -A <ipaddress>02:21
MKULTRA2K12i know a little bit of bash scripting02:21
robin0800rsharma, go to gnome.org to find details of gnome shell02:21
Skaperenhiexpo: a mistake in what respect?  buggy?  too much 3D needed for existing video drivers?02:21
macnix@rationalOgre even without the routes, I can still ssh now into all IPs from the server02:21
macnix@rationalOgre remotely, only 1 & 3 works, 2 doesn't02:21
SkaperenMKULTRA2K12: we have bash scripting down tight02:22
hiexpoSkaperen, chronical just don't have that worked out yet02:22
* rationalOgre is baffled02:22
SkaperenMKULTRA2K12: we're expecting to have 3 to 6 Java/Python openings around Aug or Sep02:22
rodger_ncrobin0800:  No deal - changing GRUB did not fix the issue and neither did putting in alternate NVidia Drivers - Still get the "Over Range" error during boot.  Any other suggestions?02:22
SkaperenMKULTRA2K12: prefer 5 years programming experience with at least 1 in either language02:22
milambermacnix: is 2 the one you did the route add command on?02:23
SkaperenMKULTRA2K12: job/intern experience, just taking a class doesn't count ... but if you have an FOSS project in either, that's a big pluss02:23
robin0800rodger_nc, you did run update-grub?02:23
macnix@milamber I added them all, but when I restarted the networking, only the default route remained02:23
SkaperenI guess all the job talk is O/T ... I will shut up02:23
macnix@milamber still, locally, I can ssh into any of the 3 IPs02:24
rodger_ncrobin0800:  I noticed my Monitor is unknown.  But there does not appear to be a way to pick a monitor from a list.  There used to be a way to do this. Any suggestions?02:24
macnix@milamber remotely, only into 1 & 302:24
rsharmaOh alright, are their alternatives then that will use GNOME?02:24
mrdebhi. can yhou recommend a cairo dock or something like that ot easily configure02:24
mrdebfor the left side like unity02:24
milambermacnix: remotely do: nmap -A <ipaddress>02:24
robin0800rodger_nc, nvdia?02:24
Skaperenhiexpo: so I guess maybe they should have made a system where one can run either UI, or more than two, etc02:25
rationalOgremacnix: So are these IP addresses ones you rented from your ISP?02:25
pecarhi, how do i share my internet conection with ubuntu 11.04?02:25
macnix@rationalOgre yes, assigned by them02:25
Skaperenhiexpo: I would have liked to see a "multi-ubuntu" that installs all the various major WMs/UIs and (with a menu to checkbox what is wanted or not)02:25
hiexpoSkaperen, yup not putin all in one they are losing  to fedora and mint now02:26
rationalOgremacnix: Ah02:26
macnix@milamber I'm on OSX, need to install nmap first...02:26
macnix@milamber will be a few mins02:26
macnix@milamber can run it from a different host though...02:26
Skaperenhiexpo: mint has exactly the same driver issue ... I tried it02:26
rodger_ncrobin0800:  blast it!  No!  I figured the boot process would re-read the config GRUB file.  Is the command Sudo update-grub02:26
milamberSkaperen: you can do that, just install the desktops and you can choose which you want at login?02:26
rationalOgremacnix: post your sshd_config please02:27
hiexpoSkaperen, i have seen many have went to lubuntu   also02:27
=== phrosty is now known as phrostbite
Skaperenmilamber: what I meant was a combo ISO that has them all together at initial install time02:27
robin0800Skaperen, you can use ubuntu minimal and install what you want02:27
robin0800rodger_nc, yes02:27
rodger_ncBRB02:27
Skaperenrobin0800: well, at least for 11.04, I clearly need to do installs offline02:27
mrdebwhat is a good, workign cd burning program02:27
MKULTRA2K12k3b works great mrdeb02:28
Skaperenwhich means I am probably better off with 10.04.2 or maybe 10.1002:28
MKULTRA2K12md5sum's and everything for your iso images in k3b mrdeb02:28
Skaperenmy dad still has 9.04 :-(02:28
macnix@milamber ok, got it02:28
macnix@milamber IP2 has been taken by someone else02:29
macnix@milamber going to do a pastie02:29
rsharmaIs Kubuntu a good alternative to GNOME or Unity?02:29
* hiexpo suggest 10.04 @ Skaperen 02:29
MKULTRA2K12rsharma, id use xubuntu02:29
Skaperenrsharma: if you like KDE, yeah02:29
hiexporsharma, kubuntu is kde02:29
rsharmawhy xubuntu?02:29
MKULTRA2K12xfce is like gnome, and you can even snap in some gnome components to xfce02:29
rsharmaahh02:29
gohdanxfce is the new gnome02:30
robin0800Skaperen, I realy don't buy your assertion that updates wiil change nouveau to nvidia that must be a bug02:30
rsharmais KDE good as gnome?02:30
MKULTRA2K12xfce is far easier to compile from source so i imagine its lighter than gnome02:30
rsharmaor will it also be taken down just like gnome?02:30
gohdanlxde is the new LXDE02:30
gohdans/LXDE/xfce brain fart02:30
xanguarsharma: use what you want, this is not a poll place; and gnome was not taked down :S02:30
SkaperenI do have a couple graphical apps I'd like to write ... but I want to make sure they work in all desktops/WMs02:30
MKULTRA2K12if they switch to unity, you can apt gnome back on your system02:30
hiexporsharma, kde is kde gnome is gnome maybe you should downlode the kde version and see if you like it02:31
rsharmawell, gnome is going to be replaced isn't it?02:31
fallenagnelhey. i was looking for some advice. IM CONFUSED!02:31
milamberSkaperen: the 2 big cross platform widget sets are gtk and Qt02:31
MKULTRA2K12id put kde, gnome, and xfce on my ubuntu system02:31
hiexporsharma, he told you that      andno02:31
hypatiafallenagnel: ask away02:31
robin0800rsharma, gnome3 will be in 11.1002:31
Skaperenrobin0800: well it did happen on one guy's 2nd desktop at work ... and happened just yesterday, too02:31
RoastedWhat's the max amount of files that can reside in a single folder on an EXT4 partition?02:32
rationalOgremacnix: So your ISP released one of the IP addresses back into the general pool?02:32
html_inprogresswhich is a lighter  resouce useage office suite, :::   open office or libre office02:32
rsharmaalright then02:32
rsharmathx02:32
gohdanRoasted:  over 9000?02:32
MKULTRA2K12Roasted, see ext wiki for information02:32
milamberhtml_inprogress: they are essentially the same02:32
macnix@rationalOgre bloody amateurs! It seems so...02:32
RoastedMKULTRA2K12, or I can ask here :D02:32
macnix@rationalOgre @milamber  https://gist.github.com/b00fb694d4226173e32802:32
Skaperenrobin0800: and it happened during the install I did at home this evening, when I installed WITH a network connection ... it upgraded automatically during install (and I didn't check the box) and I got the bad driver02:32
milamberhtml_inprogress: libreoffice forked from open office02:32
Skaperenrobin0800: redid it w/o network, got the good driver02:32
macnix@rationalOgre @milamber  thanks guys, mystery solved. I've learned some really nice tricks with nmap btw ; ).02:33
hiexpohtml_inprogress, i like libre now seems to be much faster02:33
Roastedgohdan, eh, really? I'm using a program called deja dup, and it slices my stuff into 10.0mb increments to back up... I'm at nearly 6,000 files on my EXT4 samba share now :(02:33
Skaperenrobin0800: so it seems to be a very recent update02:33
sw0rdfishhey guys to change the port i just add a line in /etc/ssh/ssh_config and make it like this right? --> Port 444402:33
MKULTRA2K12Roasted, says 4 billion @ creation, for entire file system so probably less02:33
sw0rdfishIt used to work for me like that before02:33
rationalOgremacnix: time to call and chew out yer ISP >:D02:33
szalhtml_inprogress: there's no difference in system footprint for OOo and LO02:33
macnix@rationalOgre @milamber now to give my hot-shot ISP a nice shower for trying to BS me with some really smelly HS02:33
macnix@rationalOgre indeedy deed02:33
MKULTRA2K12sw0rdfish, i wouldnt do that, ssh is insecure02:34
RoastedMKULTRA2K12, I was curious about one folder in particular. I knew the number was HUGE overall but for one specific individual folder I wasn't sure if there was a max.02:34
MKULTRA2K12ssh can run 1000 logins a minute02:34
Roastedssh, insecure?02:34
Roastedlol?02:34
sw0rdfishMKULTRA2K12, :o really, I thought it is the way of the day02:34
Skaperenssh is secure ... but there are some "issues"02:34
MKULTRA2K12lol like 1000 login attempts per minute?02:34
robin0800Skaperen, raise a bug because it broke your system02:34
macnix@rationalOgre @milamber  once again, much appreciated you sticking with this until I figured it out. at one point, I've started to lose hope... You both have diamond nuts ; ).02:34
milambermacnix: this is the ip you were trying to get? http://lexi.lazu.co.uk/  ??  http works on this one?02:34
gohdandont listen to him. he has been MK ULTRA'd02:35
rodger_ncrobin0800: I updated grub - no change - still get "over Drive" I even tries it with "nomodeset" - I would like to find a way to set my monitor correctly.  Any suggestions?02:35
milambermacnix: but it is not you?02:35
fallenagnelok. my laptop has a i7-2630QM  2.00GHz processor. Im trying to get 11.4 sorted. i posted on the forum since i upgraded from 10.10 cos its really laggy. i've decided to reinstall.. im backing up my data and looking which iso to download. of course i want 64bit but i have 8gb of ram. 1) will all my ram still work in 64bit ? 2) can i use the 64bit download that seem to say AMD all over it even though its not an AMD CPU02:35
Skaperenrobin0800: yeah, I apparently need to ... just gathering more info so far02:35
sw0rdfishMKULTRA2K12, what other alternative is there02:35
macnix@milamber yes, that's the machine. It has 3 IPs pointing to it02:35
rationalOgremacnix: glad you got it sorted, sir. Give em hell!02:35
mrdebfallenagnel: yes, amd is just the structure. it will work on your i702:35
hypatiafallenagnel: 8gb ram will work just fine in 64bit.  and the "amd" thing is a historical artifact; it'll work fine on intel02:35
MKULTRA2K12sw0rdfish, you can lock down ssh, but i wouldnt switch the port before doing so02:35
SkaperenMKULTRA2K12: I moved my public exposed sshd from port 22 to port ... nope, won't tell YOU what that is :)02:35
macnix@milamber all with proper PTR02:36
sw0rdfishlock it down, how?02:36
fallenagnelAWESOME! thanks guys/girls02:36
milambermacnix: well, i just got to it using the ip you ran nmap with, so it seems to be working now.02:36
sw0rdfishSkaperen, how did you do that02:36
milambermacnix: glad you got it resolved.02:36
SkaperenMKULTRA2K12: the issue is all the hack attempts flood the logs ... making it very hard to find legitimate issues with the ssh logins02:36
fallenagneldidn't wanna dl it and waste my time02:36
Skaperensw0rdfish: config file(s) in /etc/ssh02:36
hypatiayou're welcome, fallenagnel - the onely thing is, if you have no specific need for 64bit, the only restriction of running 32 bit is that individual processes can't be more than 3gb, but it will support all your ram02:36
rodger_ncrobin0800: I mean "Over Range" error02:37
sw0rdfishin my ssh_config there was no line like the usual one --> Port 22....... so i just added "Port ####"02:37
sw0rdfishbut its not working02:37

sw0rdfishssh_confg02:37
sw0rdfishconfig*02:37
rationalOgrewrong one, sir02:37
sw0rdfishoh there is a differnce?02:37
Skaperenoops ... do the other one02:38

pim_i figured that, so I checked with df-h02:49

hypatiahtml_inprogress: various new features have been implmented in libreoffice that ooo was slow to accept02:49
milamber(08:37:04 PM) hypatia: you're welcome, fallenagnel - the onely thing is, if you have no specific need for 64bit, the only restriction of running 32 bit is that individual processes can't be more than 3gb, but it will support all your ram02:49

juliepim_, few things to consider:  is the fs on the device supported by the specified kernel;  is the device name the same from the system you're checking and in the one you're trying to run... I've had similar issues in the past and this can be difficult to fix02:54

braxtonThe program is used for gamepads to translate their buttons into keypresses.03:29
jonesst1ok, i doubt i can help03:29
braxtonThere is an option, -X, that allows one to use X events.03:29

juliebraxton, continue03:29
braxtonWell, julie, I would easily be able to map the buttons to keypresses.03:30

braxtonThere are two other options of output other than X events.03:31
braxtonThere's -raw-terminal and -ascii03:31
braxtonI think that's what they're called03:31
braxtonWould I be able to use either of those to indicate that the mouse moved?03:31
juliebraxton, you could somehow generate mouse movements based on arrow keys (probably in raw terminal mode)03:32

EnsignAnyone can help with flashplayer?  I can't play any video (youtube....etc) Thanks.03:34
braxtonSo then if I actually used those keys on the keyboard, they'd move the mouse?03:34
juliebraxton, but I would never encourage putting any efforts on such a complex setup which will certainly give worse results than using a 10$ mouse03:35
braxtonjulie, I'm using an actual game controller. I'm trying to use it to play a game.03:35
juliebraxton, perhaps you should clarify how you want to use it, like in which game?03:36
braxtonWell, minecraft.03:36
braxtonThe controller has four axes I would like to utilise:03:36
braxtonTwo for directional movement, and two for rotation of the view.03:37
juliebraxton, and does minecraft use joysticks or just the mouse?03:37

juliebraxton, sorry but what you're saying doesn't make sense...  do you want the joystick to do both joystick actions and mouse actions?03:38
braxtonjulie, it's not a joystick, it's a game controller, similar to an xbox controller.03:39
juliebraxton, to me it's the same03:39

braxtonjulie, yes03:40
braxtonUsing joy2key I think this is possible.03:40
juliehow would your system determine if the action taken is to be applied as a game controller or a mouse?03:40
juliewhy don't you just use a mouse?03:40
braxtonBecause I would like to use a game controller to play this game?03:41
braxtonThe game controller would move the mouse and emulate keypresses03:41
braxtonThat's all I want it to do.03:41
juliebraxton, that still doesn't answer why you wouldn't use a mouse to do mouse work03:42
braxtonWhat are you trying to get out of me? I just want to use a game controller instead of the mouse and keyboard!03:42

braxtonjulie, I have a USB game controller I just bought.03:43
juliecontrolling a mouse through a game controller can not work well03:44
braxtonI don't need PRECISE mouse movement, and that's irrelevant anyway.03:44
braxtonI just need Minecraft to know when I pointed left or right03:44
braxtonHaven't you ever played a first-person shooter or something on an xbox or a playstation?03:45
Gir-i couldn't care less about mouse movement XD03:45
juliebraxton, the only way to do it properly would be to integrate it as a low level driver so it could at least manage the location on the screen03:45
braxtonYou're not using the sticks to point directly at something, you're just using them to turn.03:45
juliebraxton, sorry I can't help you03:45
braxtonThank you for trying, at least.03:46
Gir-but the flow feels better when its precise, why am i interrupting a conversation-*shoops da whoops*03:46

Ubentoboxok is there a command to open the preferences gui>04:36
DrkCodemanstrata_: can i pm you about thin clients real quick only couple things i need this for my work lol04:36
strata_DrkCodeman: by default, it's pretty smart as far as sessions go. if you want to get crazier you can do other types of filesystems and ldap04:36
gohdanstrata_: autohide does not place it below other windows04:36
Ubentoboxlike how with a game you run it, and for console version you type nogui after it04:37

chazz_tsc1julie: if you don't have x actually running on tty2, trying to run something that expects gui will fail with "can't get screen". That's what was happening with ubentobox.04:37
Xgateshey guys04:37
rodger_ncdrove me crazy - found the answer @http://ubuntuguide.net/signal-out-of-range-problem-after-ubuntu-11-04-natty-installed04:38

Xgatesanyone using shrewsoft with ipsec? I'm wondering if you install shrewsoft it works pretty easy out the box04:38
DouglasKbrown_fern: Thanks!04:38
juliechazz_tsc1, just try it instead of pointlessly arguing.... "export DISPLAY=YOUR-IP:0.0" and then type "xterm"04:38
brown_fernopps, sorry about the length everyone.04:38

jmick8retarting*04:38
Ubentoboxlol04:39
Ubentoboxnothings been changed04:39
jmick8you get the picture04:39
Ubentoboxits been this way for 2 weeks04:39
rodger_ncbrown_fern: I thought IPv6 day was yesterday - that is in my time zone in the USA - :)04:39
Ubentoboxso its had plenty of restarts lol04:39
Ubentoboxsee im wondering if I can cheat it, since I can cerate shortcuts04:39

Ubentoboxim wondering if I can shortcut to the preferences gui04:39
flaikshey im having an issue with my atheros ar928x wireless card04:40
Ubentoboxbut I dont know WHAT that module is or where its located so cannot make the link04:40
flaiksi have the enable wireless checkbox checked, and its not listing any networks, I tried grabbing the latest ath9k driver and manually compiling/installing it, still didnt help the issue04:40
chazz_tsc1julie: did that, earlier today, without the export step. thing is, ubentobox would have gotten the same desktop he has on tty7 if he had exported.04:40
brown_fernDouglasK: I hope it actually helps, it looks like a high-spirits and feel-good page to me, but that's who is helping to organize the transition from what I've been told.04:40
rodger_ncrobin0800: I hate using software that I have no idea what was written into it - have to be careful of backdoors... Don't know what files startup manager changes but it worked04:41
chazz_tsc1julie: and he would have again been unable to set resolution. What worked for me was editing xconf with nano directly which can be done from a non-gui tty04:41
juliechazz_tsc1, the export part is just part of the current shell's environement and not related to the whole machine04:41
dooglusit occurs to me, as I continue butching my system, that I could just use the VM...  doh!04:41
juliechazz_tsc1, you are right about editing the settings, but I'm following you less and less04:41
Dantoniccan anyone help with an 11.04 installation?  the installer won't show my partitions04:41

misingnoglicHey, on my computer, my C drive and D drive got mixed up, and now my computer can't boot into windows. It can boot into ubuntu though, is there any way to fix this problem on ubuntu? (Or do you know any other way to fix?)04:43
Ubentoboxwhich windows mis?04:43
robin0800Dantonic, select back and choose manual or something else04:43
bullgard4Why does '~$ pstree -Alap' show the process NetworkManager twice, the second time in curly brackets?04:43
UbentoboxI know  win7 had a massive problem with dual boot and would corrupt the boot sector04:43
misingnoglicwindows 704:43
Ubentoboxyeah04:43
codeshahhey guys, I changed /etc/group but how do I reload it?04:44
jmick8i dualbooted fine with wiin704:44
misingnoglicis there any way to just delete ubuntu then? I don't really use it04:44
flaiksanyone have any expeirence with ath9k, or anything atheros related in 11.04 ?04:44
Ubentoboxprob what it is.  your bootmgr is probably all wonky at the moment.  I had to completely reinstall because the drive allocation tables were completely jacked04:44
Ubentoboxwell mis04:44
chiques_Hello room!04:44
earthmeLonJust installed alternate cd.  Where the heck is GDM? !04:44
Ubentoboxif you reinstall windows over the current04:44
Ubentoboxit will go to windows.old on your c drive04:45
chazz_tsc1Gentles: My sendmail config is messed up, and when I let the internet touch it, spammers promptly take it over. Anyone here know something about setting smtp-auth correctly?04:45
Dantonicrobin0800, without manual it selects an IDE drive I have in the system that is a storage drive.  with manual I try to select the SATA drive, but it doesn't show it's partitions, it simply wants to either install on the whole drive or create new partitions... this would destroy my current Windows OS partition04:45

Ubentoboxyou can grab your data files and appdata but have to reinstall almost all programs04:45
chiques_I just upgraded to 11.04 and are having a problem in Gnome. When I size or switch windows they go blank white, anyone else experiencing this?04:45
misingnoglicShit, are you sure that's the only way?04:45
Ubentoboxthen delete windows.old once your done moving over browser shortcuts and such.04:45
Ubentoboxyou can try others but it involves manually editing some very delicate files04:46
misingnoglicI just need to change the drive names I think04:46
robin0800Dantonic, think you need the alternate cd for special! cases04:46
Dantonicrobin0800, what's that?04:46
semitonesis it possible to get help with avahi-daemon here?04:46
chazz_tsc1misingnoglic: that's not an easy task, means playing registry games.04:46
Ubentoboxjust be prepared for a full reinstall of windows mis04:46
gohdandooglus: vm is not a solution in the least bit. perhaps you should restate you initial question/problem and hope for more assistance04:46
SuperMiguelfor a i7 cpu, 16gb of ram and SSD drive is it worth it to go with a low memory window manager like fluxbox, instead of gnome?04:46
jmick8why would you waste your memory like that04:47
semitonesavahi-browse -a on my desktop sees itself and my laptop, but on my laption, avahi-browse -a only sees itself. Why could that be?04:47

celthunderSuperMiguel: depends..i have plenty of cpu/ram/etc but i use xmonad because it does everything i want how i want...go for that aspect for best results04:48
hypatiaearthmeLon: are you sure you installed the alternate, not the server?04:48
robin0800Dantonic, its a different installer from dos if you like cli or text based much better partitioner04:48
earthmeLonYes, hypatia I am sure04:49
celthunderchazz_tsc1: yes04:49
Ubentoboxoh I might have found a way around the problem with my netbook04:49

Dantonicrobin0800, I just don't get why it won't just recognize and install over my current linux partition... I mean it worked when I installed 10.0404:50
Ubentoboxif I can navi to that file and open it while in c/a/f7, i can add a menu option for a terminal window04:50

SuperMiguelcelthunder, for a laptop is there a recomendable windows manager?04:50

Ubentoboxyou mean ctrl-alt-f2?04:51
hypatiaearthmeLon: alternate doesn't require internet to install anything04:51
chazz_tsc1celthunder: What can I tell you that will help with diagnosis and correction?04:51
hypatiaUbentobox: no, alt-f2, lets you run commands04:51
celthunderSuperMiguel: it's a matter of opinion...but wit hthat said...waht are you looking for in your wm? a full de? tiling? effects? mostly keyboard or mouse commands?04:51
Ubentoboxthats not the problem, I am trying to access the display function on netbook xrandr to change display resolution to see if my launch bars are just off screen04:51

flaiksmy ath9k driver wont work with my ar928x at all, been searching for 2 hours now around foruns & google04:52
earthmeLonWhat would explain GDM not being on my drive then, gohdan ?04:53
bullgard4kunnis: packages.ubuntu.com tells me that maverick should provide the package python-pyopencl. Did you allow multiverse in /etc/apt/sources.list?04:53

Dantonicrobin0800, maybe I'll try removing the IDE hard disk and see what happens04:54
flaikscelthunder, hmm it detects the wireless card fine, but when I have my ethernet unplugged, and wireless enabled in the manager applet, it doesnt show me any networks, card works fine in win7, and when i iwlist scan it shows network down04:54
SuperMiguelthen should i install the alternate cd? instead of the regular gnome install?04:54

flaikscelthunder, any way to bypass that ?05:19

flaikscelthunder, hmm okay, do I need root to connect to a network ?05:20
bullgard4Why does '~$ pstree -Alap' show the process NetworkManager twice, the second time in curly brackets?05:21
celthunderflaiks: networkmanager should be running as root (or at least the daemon should be or if using iwconfig/dhclient/dhcpcd/ifconfig yes yo uneed sudo/ a root terminal05:21
flaikscelthunder, networkmanager being the app ?05:22

DantonicI don't get it05:24
Dantonicwhy doesn't the installer recognize my partitions?05:24
Dantonic:(05:24
bullgard4Shikhin: I do not know if this is harmful either. "eth1" usually stands for your wireless connection Do you use a wireless connection successfully?05:25
Shikhinbullgard4: eth1 is a wired connection in here. wlan0 is the wireless connection, and works properly.05:26
bullgard4Shikhin: So I would not mind for the moment.05:27
Shikhinbullgard4: I need eth1 to network boot some other machine. I was having some DHCP configuration problems, when I noticed this line. Wondering if it is hampering anything or not.05:28
SuperMigueldoes ubuntu have trim support for ssd drives?05:28
bullgard4Shikhin: What do you mean by "network boot"?05:29
Shikhinbullgard4: PXE boot.05:29
celthunderChainer: ok looking05:30
chazz_tsc1celthunder, ubentobox: back. U': it's odd that you don't have an xorg.comf; that seems to be the main control file for the entire x system.05:31
chazz_tsc1*conf05:31
Ubentoboxyeah i cannot find it anywhere05:32
quiescenschazz_tsc1: i don't know where you've been but the default has been not to have an xorg.conf for a couple releases now05:32
Ubentoboxi thought I got somewhere when something said look for a monitors.xml in the ~/.config/ file05:32
milamberUbentobox: ubuntu has not had a xorg.conf file for a long time'05:32
Ubentoboxbut not even one there05:32
celthunderchazz_tsc1: no it's not xorg.conf mostly isn't needed anymore05:32
milamberUbentobox: you can create one if you need to05:32
Ubentoboxmilamber do you know how to change Unity resolution through editing a file?05:32
celthunderUbentobox: did you try adding the --screen to the xrandr line i gave you05:32
Ubentoboxmy netbook seems to have installed at the WAY wrong reso, so I have no launchbars05:33
chazz_tsc1quiescens: I stand... er, sit corrected. I have one, but I did an upgrade... and when my x blew out (bad driver) I fixed it by editing xorg.conf05:33
Ubentoboxcant open terminal unless if find the module in the file browser05:33
bullgard4Shikhin: I do not know enough about Preboot_Execution_Environment (PXE) and its proper relation to DHCP. As far as I understand one does need PXE only once and then never again.05:33
Ubentoboxanyone know just what command I have to put in a "create launcher" to get terminal to pop up?05:35
Ubentoboxif I can create one that is not a tty terminal this might be easier05:35
gohdanhow do i get 'sensors' to output the temperature in fahrenheit?05:36
chazz_tsc1Ubentobox: tried /usr/bin/xterm?05:36
tensorpuddingthere's already one for gnome-terminal05:36
brown_ferngohdan: "sensors -f"05:36
chazz_tsc1Ubentobox: Or usr/bin/gnome-terminal05:37
bullgard4Ubentobox: gnome-terminal05:37
hardkorWho can help me, please?05:37
bullgard4!ask | hardkor05:37
Ubentoboxok thanks chazz05:37
ubottuhardkor: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-)05:37
flaikscelthunder, hey how can I start/stop the networkmanager daemon, I wanna see if restarting the nm-app will help with it scanning05:37
Ubentoboxok one problem down.  Ok NOW that im in terminal in the f7 environment, how do I figure out just wtf is going on with my resolution lol05:38
Ubentoboxok it says my current resolution is 1024x60005:38
flaikscelthunder, or, how can I get it so wlan0 is up at boot ?05:38
bullgard4Ubentobox: xrandr05:39
Ubentoboxyeah thats what I ran05:39
brown_ferngohdan: If you have questions about a given command try "sensors --help" or "man sensors" , where 'man' is short for manual.05:39
gohdanbrown_fern: do you know how i would 'watch' and grep that? 'watch sensors | grep Core' prints nothing05:39
loki2Uhihi05:39
celthunderflaiks: yeah05:39
Ubentoboxi tried xrandr -s 1024x768 but its not one of the available modes05:40
flaikscelthunder,  ?05:40
Ubentoboxis it possible its just stuck above my screen?05:40
bullgard4!prefix | Ubentobox05:40
ubottuUbentobox: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)05:40
brown_ferngohdan: No, I don't.05:40
milamberUbentobox: i came in to this convo late. have you tried to login to "classic"?05:41
Ubentoboxi cannot even get that option05:41
TheFriendlyOnesjulie: Memtest says im all good05:41
Ubentoboxi tried about 2 weeks ago something about trying to change users and being able to select environment05:41
Ubentoboxbut wasnt able too05:41
FreedomThroughLiyo05:41
chazz_tsc1Ubentobox: it is possible. Can you drag the host window down, to see that?05:41
celthunderUbentobox: -s isn't the right parameter05:42
celthunderUbentobox: i gave you the right ones earlier05:42
Ubentoboxyeah you said ...05:42
celthunderflaiks: you wanted to use network manager to connect at startup or something else?05:43
Ubentoboxxrandr -display LVSD1 -mode <resolutionyo uwant>05:43
gohdanbrown_fern: nvm. you have to enclose the watched command in "quotes"05:43
Ubentoboxits on the resolution its supposed to be atm05:43
Ubentoboxaccording to xrandr05:43
celthunderUbentobox: then...05:43
flaiksokay perfect05:43
Ubentoboxbut stuff still seems to try and display OUTSIDE the screen05:43
flaikscelthunder, so using wicd i was able to visuall scan/connect to wifi =D seems like problem solved, ill just get rid of the nm-app and use wicd from now on!05:44
chazz_tsc1celthunder - did you see my last pastebin?05:44
milamberUbentobox: what is the resolution you are trying to achieve?05:44
Ubentoboxits the max reso for the netbook.  what im trying to do is find my launchers05:44
flaikscelthunder, naw, i'll use wicd,  but is there a way to have wlan0 up automatically, rather than having to "sudo ifconfig wlan0 up" every boot ?05:45
celthunderUbentobox: did yo uadd any05:45
Ubentoboxit acts like my screen is at a lower res then desktop IS05:45
celthunderflaiks: wicd has a daemon that runs and starts up wlan0 on startup05:45
dvz-lo there, anyone know why when running "fsck" or with(out) any parameters is only returning "fsck from util-linux-ng 2.16" on the Ubuntu 9.10 livecd?  not sure if that's a normal response or not05:45
flaikscelthunder, ah, so with wicd installed, should have no problems then =D05:45
celthunderdvz-: fsck /dev/sda or whatever ?05:45
flaikscelthunder, im gonna remove nm-app, and then reboot with wicd installed, see if its up by default05:45
milamberUbentobox: are you using more than one monitor?05:46
Ubentoboxno its just the netbook05:46
celthunderflaiks: should be btw wicd breaks with python3 i believe05:46
milamberUbentobox: what is the netbook?05:46
Ubentoboxsec ill get link05:46
celthunderflaiks: can't remember if that was the issue and it was a while ago since i used wicd05:46
chazz_tsc1TheFriendlyOnes: Shame it wasn't that easy. Can't think, off the top of my head, what else would cause that.05:46
flaikscelthunder, hmm okay, i'll keep that in mind, wicd seems to be working for now though05:46
dvz-scratch that05:46
bullgard4Why does '~$ pstree -Alap' show the process NetworkManager twice, the second time in curly brackets?05:47
celthunderbullgard4: cause the first one is the daemon the second the client (guessing)05:47
Ubentoboxhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220355 is the netbook i have05:47
TheFriendlyOneschazz_tsc: Yea, idk but more and more stuff is breaking and giving segfaults so im might do a fresh install see if that fixes any05:47
chazz_tsc1TheFriendlyOnes: How old is your hardware? You could be looking at a PSU or motherboard flaking out///05:48
|Petrus|hi.  I've got 2 nVidia GTX 480 video cards.  I haven't been able to get SLI working for FreeBSD/amd64, so I was wondering whether or not it is known to work in Ubuntu?05:48
chazz_tsc1TheFriendlyOnes: Power supplies seem to last somewhere between one and five years before they die. They are pretty cheap and easy to replace.05:49
bullgard4celthunder: As you mentioned the word "client" there must be a "server". Do you think that the daemon is the server?05:49
chazz_tsc1bullgard4: Yes, generally that's what daemons are.05:49
celthunderbullgard4: yeah05:49
milamberUbentobox: try: xrandr --size 1024x60005:50
TheFriendlyOneschazz_tsc: Its a labtop, new version05:50
|Petrus|anyone?05:50
bullgard4celthunder: I will think it over. --  Thank you very much for your comment.05:50
DrkCodemananyone else agree the new layout for ubuntu 11.04 is garbage?05:50
bullgard4chazz_tsc1: Thank you.05:50
celthundermilamber: --size isn't a parameter...or i missed it you mean --mode i think05:50
Ubentoboxok tried that, but it hasnt done anything, launcher still either NOT present or above the current desktop05:50
_ohmWhen I type "make" I see a lot of the same messages repeat themselves when compiling from source. This has been going on for 3+ hours. Is it possible that it is in an infinite loop?05:50
chazz_tsc1TheFriendlyOnes: ever dropped? Infant mortality?05:50
|Petrus|hi.  I've got 2 nVidia GTX 480 video cards.  I haven't been able to get SLI working for FreeBSD/amd64, so I was wondering whether or not it is known to work in Ubuntu?05:51
celthunder_ohm: unless you're on a shitpc compiling ghc or a kernel nothing should really take 3 hours05:51
Ubentoboxis there a setting somewhere in a file I can force the launcher to the bottom?05:51
Dantonicwould someone take a look at my fdisk -l and suggest why the ubuntu installer does not recognize any of my partitions?  http://pastebin.com/LD6wqTy305:51
Ubentoboxat least then I could see what the gui settings THINK everything is?05:51
ChainerDrkCodeman: i was not a fan of unity, but you can choose Gnome (Classic) when logging in05:51
milambercelthunder: was there an error message?05:51
Chainerand that gives you the older gnome interface05:51
_ohmceltunder, using qemu to emulate ARM05:51
Ubentoboxyeah I think I am going to try that, how do I pull up the gnome interface?05:52
Ubentoboxi cannot exactly click the signoff button in launcher05:52
milamber_ohm: you need to provide more information. did  you type make one time and your computer has been compiling since?05:52
celthundermilamber: ?05:53
celthundermilamber: ah nvm i see it05:53
_ohmI'm currently trying to compile ROOT on a QEMU system emulating arm, I did the regular ./configure, make, make install. However make has been going on for quite a long time.05:53
bullgard4DrkCodeman: Please discuss this in #ubuntu-offtopic.05:54
Visual3dis there a console command to show which package is broken?05:54
brown_ferngohdan: That works very well with the sensors command, thank you. ( watch "sensors -f | grep temp1" )         remove the "()"  of course.05:54
bullgard4Visual3d: Yes. apt-get update05:55
Ubentoboxhttp://ubuntuguide.net/how-to-restore-the-default-gnome-desktop-panels-in-ubuntu just tried this to open a gnome setup but im probably doing the wrong tutorial LOL05:55
milamberVisual3d: sudo apt-get --fix-broken05:55
milamberUbentobox: did you run the xrandr command i gave you?05:56
Dantonicwould someone take a look at my fdisk -l and suggest why the ubuntu installer does not recognize any of my partitions?  http://pastebin.com/LD6wqTy305:56
Ubentoboxyeah05:56
Ubentoboxnothing changed05:56
Ubentoboxit was at those settings prior to command05:56
milamberUbentobox: no error message, nothing?05:57
Ubentoboxi hoped typing it would refresh its attitude problem but nope05:57
Ubentoboxnothing05:57
Ubentoboxjust next terminal command05:57
|Petrus|hi.  I've got 2 nVidia GTX 480 video cards.  I haven't been able to get SLI working for FreeBSD/amd64, so I was wondering whether or not it is known to work in Ubuntu?05:57
Ubentoboxok sec, whats the page up in terminal?05:57
_ohmI'll head to bed and come back if it still isn't done, by that time it'll be going for 10-12+ hours05:57
chazz_tsc1|Petrus|: considered DLing an ISO and trying?05:57
Ubentoboxive had this problem so long i forget how to scroll up05:57
gohdanbrown_fern: cool beans. now the final mystery is how to get it to grep both Core and temp1 at the same time05:57
|Petrus|chazz...I've got an ISO here.05:58
bullgard4Dantonic: I cannot see any reason for that.05:58
celthunderchazz_tsc1: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.postfix.user/212363 doe that help some05:58
|Petrus|I will try it...just wanted to find out if anyone else had done it first, is all...I guess not.05:58
milamberUbentobox: have you tried enabling panning?05:58
celthunderchazz_tsc1: listed in the first post is some stuff about authing for certain network relay for others05:58
chazz_tsc1|Petrus|: Not may of us have that kind of hardware power to play with...05:59
Ubentoboxmilamber: how do i do that?06:00
|Petrus|chazz...oh.  My apologies.  I wasn't aware this setup was rare, honestly.06:00
Ubentoboxi see it in the xrandr list06:00
milamberUbentobox: xrandr --panning06:00
bullgard4Dantonic: I'd assume that your Ubuntu installer (disk) is at fault.06:00
Ubentoboxok when I run the xrandr commands its just spamming me with usage06:01
* |Petrus| could probably just go and buy Windows...but I really prefer foss *nix of some kind, to be honest.06:01
Ubentoboxi typed in "xrandr --panning"06:01
chazz_tsc1|Petrus|: Most users who spend that kind of hardware money have more bucks than sense.06:01
Ubentoboxsame with the "xrandr -display LSDV1...." command06:02
Dantonicbullgard4, actually it's not I tried an old 9.04 disk and same problem.  I think it may have to do with a grub repair I did a few months ago when I was having problmes with my bootloader06:02
celthunderlpetrusl:  what's your issue with sli...it should work06:02
milamberDantonic: Your pastebin includes a line that reads: Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary. that could lead to data corruption and may have something to do with your problem06:03
chazz_tsc1celthunder: translating that back from postfix to sendmail as best I can, it looks like I have already done all of that...06:03
abhinayis there any third-party repositories to install Python2.7 from binaries on Maverick ?06:03
Dantonicbullgard4, so basically I have a boot loader NTFS partition, next to that is the NTFS windows partition... then there is an extended partition which contains the logical partitions for Linux, swap and just an extra FAT storage partition06:03
celthunder|Petrus|, what's not working with the sli? also nice hardware...very nice...this guy takes donations <--06:03
Dantonicmilamber, any idea how I can fix that?06:03
celthunderchazz_tsc1, the first post i think was sendmail06:03
|Petrus|celthunder...I haven't tried it yet...I'm burning the CD now.06:04
milamberDantonic: if you can backup your data and repartition06:04
Ubentoboxmilamber: I tried "xrandr --paning 1024x768" and i get a xrandr usage help spew06:04
Dantonicmilamber, bullgard4 even gparted only sees one whole partition it doesn't see the separate ones... but the disk utility shows them06:04
celthunder|Petrus|, kk06:04
milamberwhat happens when you just do: xrandr --panning06:05
Dantonicmilamber, I'd really rather not do that... unless I absolutely have to06:05
=== Prodego_ is now known as Prodego
=== Prodego is now known as administrivia
bullgard4Dantonic: I see. May be you should focus on fixing a Grub problem.06:05
Ubentoboxwhen I do just: xrandr --panning it does the usage spew again, asking for parameters06:05
Dantonicbullgard4, how Do I fix this problem?06:06
Dantonicbullgard4, I don't really know what's going on or how to diagnose it06:06
gohdanbrown_fern:  watch "sensors | grep 'Core\|temp1'"  Oh Yeah!06:06
bullgard4!grub | Dantonic06:06
celthunderDantonic, wha'ts your issue? sorry wans't reading your convo06:06

Ubentoboxstill getting usage issue06:08
CoreyDantonic: Odd, usually fdisk falls over and parted saves the day.06:08
milamberUbentobox: pastebin it06:09
Dantonicthe disk utility shows all the partitions Corey06:09
celthunderDantonic, did you mkfs all the partitions?06:09
celthunderDantonic, or are they all just thrown in the partition table without actually having been made06:09
Ubentoboxhaha im trying to but i have no terminal header just the actual window (partly why i think my desktop res is LYING)06:10
chazz_tsc1celthunder: There are some sendmail .cf items in that post but they apply to a very different problem than what I'm getting. My issue is that people are apparently making an end run around my authentication and there doesn't seem to be anything about that in the thread you posted.06:10
abhi_tcsmy ubuntu natty narwhal changed its look on its own06:11
milamberUbentobox: are you still in a gui?06:11
abhi_tcsthe top bar went from translucent black to solid white06:11
quiescensmaybe its grown sentient and is trying to take over the world06:11
celthunderchazz_tsc1, kk sorry idk then :( but yeah enable auth before relay works is what i had to do06:12
abhi_tcsquiescens :D06:12
Ubentoboxim in a terminal i created a shortcut to via the gui right click --> create launcher06:12
Dantonicsorry xchat crashed06:12
Ubentoboxbut terminal has no header06:13
Dantonicdid I miss anything?06:13
Lasivianhiya06:13
chazz_tsc1celthunder: That is exactly what I'm doing; I've followed all instructions I can find for enforcing relay only from authusers, and unaths are still getting past. Oh, well... back to the forums, see if anyone chooses to answer...06:13
Lasivianin rc.local does anyone know if this: sudo -u lasivian screen -d -m runsim.sh , Needs a & on the end or not?06:13
milamberUbentobox: ok, Alt + F7 should allow you to use the arrows on the keyboard to move the window to a position where you can see it06:14

Ubentoboxmilamber: http://pastebin.com/6BK5gACS06:15
Dantoniccelthunder could grub be causing the issue?06:16
Ubentobox;p yeah my terminal has no bounding header haha06:16
Ubentoboxits just a damned white space with terminal inside06:16
Dantonicwhat if I delete the boot partition?06:16
milamberUbentobox: ok, now add the output of this to the pastebin: lspci | grep VGA06:17
Dantonichow could grub cause the partitions to not be seen? is that possible?06:17
celthunderDantonic, did you mkfs all the partitions?06:17
celthunderDantonic, or are they all just thrown in the partition table without actually having been made06:17
celthunderDantonic, i think you disconnected as i was typing last time06:18
Dantonicyeah sorry06:18
Dantonicmkfs? how do I do that?06:18
Dantonicthey may have just been made automatically when I installed ubuntu and windows in the past06:18
DantonicI didn't make them from the command line06:18
celthunderDantonic, do the filesystmes actually exist...aka can you mount them?06:18
Dantonicyes06:19

celthunderDantonic, in the installer can't you set your mount points manually06:19
Dantonicit asks me to repartition the whole drive... wouldn't that destroy everything?06:20

Dantoniccelthunder sorry I'm sort of a nub at linux06:26

Lasivianthat's probably the problem isn;t it06:26
meuslixwhat if i just want to run gnome?06:27
celthunderDantonic, mount them how you want and chroot in and install...it's the same thing the installer ultimately does or debootstraping does etc06:27
meuslixcan i do that from xubuntu?06:27
milamberLasivian: i would say give a fully qualified path06:27
Lasivianmilamber: thanks06:27

ubottuWhile Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question.06:33
meuslixi like the mirrored screens for watching movies :)06:33
Dantoniccelthunder so from what I see gparted only sees the extended partition containing the logical partitions, and it sees it as unallocated space.... it doesn't include in this the windows partition space06:33
Dantonicidk if that means anything06:33
meuslixdantonic, you still use windows?06:34
Dantonicmeuslix, yes06:34

ubottuthangavel: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/06:35
celthunderDantonic, go to a terminal mkdir /tmp/a or something06:35
meuslixdo you have partitioning softwae on your windows boot?06:35
Chainermeuslix: i believe to install ubuntu, the command is sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop06:35
Dantoniccelthunder ok06:35
mozeeemilamber: what do u mean?06:35
Dantonicmeuslix I have partition magik on cd06:35
milamber(12:32:38 AM) mozeee: I need an English to English professional Dictionary!06:36
meuslixi am going to try it when i get done updating, chainer. i thank you much06:36
Chainerthen you use the xubuntu command here to remove all your xubuntu stuff: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome06:36
celthunderDantonic, what did you want as a / partition?06:36
Chainerno problem06:36
meuslixdantonic, are you able to see all the partitions correctly from windows is what i would ask first06:36
mozeeemilamber: most of the time I'm ofline and i have no internet access!06:36
meuslixi don't want to remove the xubuntu06:36
Dantoniccelthunder excuse my ignorance what do u mean?06:36
Dantonicmeuslix I haven't tried06:37
ChainerI should warn you though, when i tried using dual monitors with Unity, sometimes it was buggy in that the dock would appear on the left side of my right-hand monitor, and I wouldn't be able to drag windows over it06:37
milambermozeee: you just need an english dictionary?06:37
celthunderDantonic, which partition did yo uwant as / when you're done installing?06:37
ChainerBut you have a different video card so perhaps it will work for you06:37
meuslixwhen i ran 10.04 i had all the available sessions06:37
meuslixand i would just choose which one i want06:37
milambermeuslix: you don't have to remove the other desktops. when you add new ones they will become options at the login.06:37
Dantonicmeaning as my main linux install?  I guess that would be my sda5 partition06:38
Dantoniccelthunder06:38
Chainerright, but if you want to get rid of the xubuntu applications that you don't need or free disk space, the option is there06:38
celthunderDantonic, ok so mount /dev/sda5 /tmp/a06:38

meuslixi been on ubuntu for a long time, but this the first time i ever went xfce from the start, and i do not like xfce 4.x07:22

meuslixitail, why you need open netbios?07:24
pcbobfi can't even find out from hp07:24
Fudgehi, does chown user.user work the same as user:user07:24
meuslixthere was a time i would already be sniffing you07:24
celthunderfudge user:user sets user:group idk about user,user probably not07:25
meuslixthere must be a more secure solution to your need07:25
itai1need to find out my netbios name07:25
pcbobfi just choose the recommended driver07:25
* meuslix suggests turning it off07:25
pcbobfit worked when i installed07:26
celthunderpcbobf, nvidia-settings and then turn on twinview for second monitor07:26
meuslixthat's what i need on my radeon07:26
pcbobfso i goto system settings?07:26
celthundermeuslix, idk if ati has there own thing but you can use xrandr for dual displays07:26
meuslixbut i can't find the sright settings box07:26
Fudgetks07:27
meuslixdo i have it?07:27
meuslixor i have to get it through a complicated ppa?07:27
celthundermeuslix, try xrandr without any parameters for your video display names07:27
meuslixi think that might be too hard for me07:27
celthundermeuslix, then xrandr --display <internal/firstdisplay> --mode <resolution you want> --display <display2> --mode <resolution you want --right-of <otherdisplay>07:28
meuslixi don't like editing config files and such, i want a gui interface, that's why i use ubuntu07:28
pcbobfwow .. i feel stupid07:28
celthunderpcbobf, that work?07:28
pcbobfi guess the new interface threw me07:28
pcbobfi was using ubuntu 907:28
celthundermeuslix, then mess with the ati stuff or try the command i just gave you don't complain if stuff doesn't work if you don't like the solutions or don't at least try them though07:29
meuslixlike on ubuntu 10.04, i plugged my monitors in, it saw them, i could move a picture of them around and tell it where i wanted them and such07:29
tim__ Hey all. When I turn on compiz I lose Maximize, minimize and close buttons. Compiz --reset and compiz --replace don't work.07:29
pcbobfjust one more quick question..... is the secondary display still accellarated in most nvidias?07:29
celthunderpcbobf, yeah should be07:29
pcbobfkk'07:29
=== chickadee is now known as chickadee-afk
pcbobfi'mma reboot07:29
pcbobftysoo much celthunder07:29
meuslixi ain't complaining, but i use my multiple monitors for entertainment, and i move the orientations around a lot. sometimes right of is not good enough07:30
celthundernp lol you just missed a small checkbox07:30
celthundermeuslix, then replace it with where yo uwant it07:30
celthundermeuslix, --left-of --above --below etc should all work and you can set to degree and on top of each other and etc07:30
celthundermeuslix, btw most graphical stuff just runs the command line commands anyway not like you're doing much different07:31
meuslixwell, if the ubuntu-desktop package works, maybe it will have the tool i'm familiar with07:31
meuslixbecause i never installed that tool, i don't know it's name07:32
meuslixi think it just don't come with xubuntu07:32
celthundermeuslix, what tool?07:32
meuslixi'm sorry if i sounded ungrateful, yo, you guys have been a big help already07:32
hidn_shadowsHey guys, I'm running on 10.04 and software center froze in the middle of a download. It was stuck on 52%... now it won't let me do anything until I get rid of that damaged file. Where would it be stored?07:32
celthundermeuslix, lol i'm a bit of an ass...just ignore me :)07:32
celthunderhidn_shadows, the db lock file? apt should tlel you07:33
meuslixit was in ubuntu 10.04 default install from the main top panel settings>preferences>monitors07:33
meuslixit is not here07:33
meuslixit sees my graphics card fine07:33
hidn_shadowscelthunder, what command do I run? I'm not a very advanced user07:34
meuslixand both monitors display the same thing07:34
nit-withidn_shadows, run this command in a terminal sudo apt-get -f install07:34
meuslixit even tells me what cards they are07:34
celthunderhidn_shadows, rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock07:34
celthundermeuslix, that's a gnome thing..and btw :) it likely calls the same command i just gave you in some form07:35
meuslixjust for clarification, this is the first time in 5 years that something didn't just work right out of the box on ubuntu for me07:35
hidn_shadowsnit-wit it told me to run a dpkg command, and I did... lemme check to see if that fixed it07:35
celthunderhidn_shadows, ignore what i said then sorry07:35
celthundermeuslix, nice07:35
meuslixso where do i get mangler for xubuntu 11.0407:36
* meuslix goes googling07:36
hidn_shadowsnit-wit, now when I try to download the Furious ISO manager it says E:I wasn't able to locate a file for the fuseiso package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package. (due to missing arch):07:36
meuslixi gotta get a flash plugin for firefox 4, any ideas?07:37
celthundermeuslix, one sec07:37
meuslixis it ok to say i do not like this ubuntu release?07:37

celthunderryan-c, service avahi stop07:38
meuslixwhich distro you use?07:38
celthundermeuslix, arch07:38
ryan-ccelthunder: I said I want to turn it off, not stop the service07:38
meuslixi heard about arch07:38

Anarhistsilv3r_m00n1, try changing the fonts used by chrome to something which has the full (or the fillest) set of the characters10:56
silv3r_m00n1Anarhist: there is no font which includes indian languages like hindi etc10:56
folivoraGday. Has anyone got working Iphone4 + usb + nattu tethering combo?10:56
silv3r_m00n1the reason I use that xml , is that it makes ms fonts look very smooth and proper10:56
silv3r_m00n1firefox and other browsers don't have any problem with that , but chrome stops displaying any non english fonts , though all fonts are installed on system10:57
=== KNUBBIG_ is now known as KNUBBIG
nmesisMoral_, maybe you should build it yourself now.10:58
Anarhistsilv3r_m00n1, most likely cause is that chrome uses system fonts always, with no fall back mechanism10:58
Moral_lol10:58
Moral_yep10:58
Moral_gonna work on it tomorrow10:58
Moral_thanks sir10:58
Anarhistsilv3r_m00n1, also if anything can show the hindi characters on your system, that means that there is at least one font with these chars which is installed10:59
KNUBBIGHey, is there a way to tell Ubuntu to use PPAs for older versions? E. g. tell Natty to use PPAs with packages for Maverick?10:59

silv3r_m00n1Anarhist: yes firefox , rekonq and opera all show hindi fine , but chrome fails (when I put that xml in ~/.fonts.conf)11:00

Anarhistsilv3r_m00n1, file the bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug?no-redirect11:00
szaljohnf: error logs please11:00
KNUBBIGszal: because there is a PPA for e. g. eclipse 3.6 for maverick, but it contains no packages for natty11:00
silv3r_m00n1Anarhist: but is it an ubuntu bug ? or a google chrome bug ?11:00
KNUBBIGszal: I know I could install it manually but I'm generally interested in this11:00

KNUBBIGuser12: please describe your problem more exactly11:10
Anarhistpratz, i meant the interface of gnome, the regular one or the unity thingy... there's 'to tray' applet that can do this11:11

KNUBBIGuser12: why would you put that in your /etc/hosts ... redirecting localhost to an ip but 127.0.0.111:12
Sidewinder1Trond--, When I want to mark multiple files in a directory, bot not all, I hold down ctrl when I click on them with the mouse. Works great..11:13
user12KNUBIGG: so what should it be like11:13
Anarhistpratz, alltray, just install that11:14
KNUBBIGuser12: I think the line should be like 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost11:14

nothingspecialjud: You tried using tab completion?13:30
usr13_Net_Spy: Is this machine actually listening via eth0 on the outside and have at least an alias for the IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ?13:30
MarKsaitisok, so the cloud doesnt work without virtualization software?13:31
Net_Spy@iceroot is there any issue with iptables rule i made13:31
BrianMBIMarKsaitis, pretty much13:31
ikoniaMarKsaitis: the cloud is virtual machines13:31

MarKsaitisikonia, brianb ok. I dont understand then why everybody thinks this cloud is something amazing when its just a bunch of VMs controlled by virtualization software.13:32
bazhangCyborgSmurf, #winehq for particular apps13:32
usr13_Net_Spy: and is the 192.168.0.2 pc actually connected and being routed to by this same machine?  (Or is it just another alias?)13:32

MarKsaitisI am about to install ubuntu. Dunno what to install, server or desktop OS. I want to run some server apps and I also want a nice GUI. Whats best to do? I want to use it as a desktop and use it as a server at the same time. I am coming from centos world13:34
CyborgSmurficeroot: maybe some say "why MSO 2007 when there is OOffice" I say, because of school. Anyway, can you guide me through the installation. I have tried Wine before but didnt work. I now use PlayOnLinux which works great, but Access didnt got installed13:34
ikoniaMarKsaitis: the desktop is fine13:34

ActionParsnipMarKsaitis: you can use the server apps on the desktop OS, you just have the impact of running a desktop on the server13:35
MonkeyDustMarKsaitis: Lubuntu is a very light GUI that you can use for a server13:35
icerootCyborgSmurf: look at the aapdb, it has installation-instructions13:35

travisbrown20can you use the desktop server gui for html coding13:36
MarKsaitisWill I not loose server specific applications? Server administration stuff and so on?13:36
ikoniaMarKsaitis: there are things in the server packages, such as kernel modules for enterprise class hardware, that sort of thing, so if anything the desktop has less13:36
bazhangtravisbrown20, what?13:36
ikoniaMarKsaitis: that's the real difference13:36
nothingspecialjud: You sure the file exists? You have the case right? try sort -u /pat<TAB>/fil<TAB>13:36
usr13_Kosava: Server distro is as name indicates, server (wich does not include gui apps that desktop users want).13:36
ActionParsnipBrianMBI: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases   Lucid dies the day after Natty does (on desktop at least)13:37
icerootMarKsaitis: server and desktop are the same (and use the same repo) server just dont come with a gui by default and have a pae kernel at 32bit version13:37
CyborgSmurficeroot, ActionParsnip, ubottu: thank you guys! :)13:37
MarKsaitisSo, on a server sitro, there is even no GUI for server administration?13:37
icerootikonia: the kernel from desktop and server is the same. the server just instzalling pae by default13:37
judnothingspecial: i think i'm just leaving something out but what does tab do there?13:38
icerootikonia: but there is no server-edition-kernel. the installer just picks up the pae-kernel13:38
travisbrown20can you use it for website making I code alote13:38
icerootMarKsaitis: of course not13:38
ActionParsnipMarKsaitis: you can install web UIs but by default it is a command line environment, makes it boot faster, use fewer resources and make it more secure13:38

travisbrown20people were talking about it on here13:39
remoteCTRLdoes linux have a limitation how big a swap space can be? i am currently setting up a computation server with 96GB RAM...?13:40
bazhangtravisbrown20, no they were not. they were talking about adding a gui to a server, which has none.13:40
icerootikonia: maybe in some releases befor it was different but know its the same kernel13:40
fastaremoteCTRL: yes13:40
travisbrown20oh13:40
remoteCTRLfasta: ok?13:40
fastaremoteCTRL: but... it is likely _much_ bigger.13:40

Sidewinder1Tetracomm, Maybe look into compiz and conky and themes; those various combinations of different things may show you something that meets your needs.14:10
scarleopfifo, I've been trying that but it doesn't get stored on the usb14:10

pfifoscarleo, that would be fine14:11
ActionParsnipzzzo: http://www.xpud.org/download.en.html#tab-3  has an entry you can add to grub2, just change the filenames :)14:12
Sidewinder1jud, I think you need to be in the same directory/folder in which the file resides to manipulate it. Either that or specify the exact path in your command.14:12
ActionParsnipjud: then you need to change the terminal's directory to where the file is held14:12
scarleopfifo, but how shoul I access them later? I need to put the file onto the usb to get it out of the pc14:12

pfifoscarleo, the computer doesnt have a working OS? maybe mount another USB drive if you have a 2nd.14:13
ActionParsnipjud: then run:  cd ~/Desktop14:13
Sidewinder1jud, "pwd" should Print Working Directory.14:13
judActionParsnip: ah14:14
fabriciooi14:14
ActionParsnipjud: you can't just fire commands in any old directory and expect the interpretter to magically find the file you want to manipulate for you, you need to change the working directory to the one with the file so it knows what to use14:14

JaccoI managed to get grub2 efi working on my mac mini with out having to bless anything. So thats good, however, no matter how i configure my grub.cfg or make the grub-mkimage, I always shortly get the message Error: prefix not set on startup. The startup/grub works normally though. Except for the recordfail trigger .. so how can i fix that message or did I find a bug? :)14:17
MIH1406I have switch to Fedora 15 since they announced it. Just for the GNOME 314:17

bazhangMIH1406, actual support question?14:17
MIH1406Can I use GNOME 3 with Ubuntu without14:17
pfifoscarleo, typo `wget -O /dev/sdX "http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso"`14:18
Sidewinder1MIH1406, You'll probably have to do a fresh install of Ubuntu.14:18
MIH1406Sidewinder1, I did but there is the ugly Unity installed, I want GNOME Shell14:18
bazhangMIH1406, no, gnome3 is not a supported package in 11.0414:18
Testerskivlt_, jrib: actually I'm trying to run an application via ssh on my remote server, how shall I start it to remain working after I'll disconnect ?14:18
scarleopfifo, Ok, I'll try that14:19
bazhangMIH1406, then use classic14:19
Sidewinder1!classic | MIH140614:19
ubottuMIH1406: 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".14:19
jribTesterski: any of the three ways I said.  If you want to reattach the program later, use screen14:19
MIH1406bazhang, But fedora is far away from Ubuntu, I love Ubuntu!14:19
JaccoMIH1406: or try google ;) http://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu&channel=fs&q=gnome3+ubuntu&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-814:19
bazhangMIH1406, that has nothing to with support. gnome3 is not supported. use classic for 11.04 if you dont like unity14:20
Testerskithank you, jrib14:20
MIH1406Blogs writers warn users not to install gnome 3 on Ubuntu14:20
ActionParsnipMIH1406: you could remove the PPA but then will have to tell the OS to reinstall a tonne of packages, I'd go with a clean install14:20
bazhangJacco, thats not necessary. gnome3 is not supported on 11.0414:20
Jaccoi know bazhang .. not officially anyway.14:20
MIH1406ActionParsnip, which PPA?14:20
bazhangMIH1406, as I said, its not supported. lets move on.14:20
ActionParsnipMIH1406: the one you added14:21

go8765_Phello. anybody use zim?14:21
go8765_Pi hawe some trouble with him14:21
bazhanggo8765_P, please ask your real question14:21
jeaquaresbazhang, i think you mean "gnome shell" instead of "gnome 3" cause ubuntu 11.04 uses gnome 3 either but not gnome shell14:21
pfifoscarleo, if your more comfortable with dd i normally us 'dd if=mini.iso of=/dev/sdX' since i have the file already downloaded you can use either method14:22
ActionParsnipGnome 3 runs fine here in Oneiric, but I use LXDE so gnome only shows in my gnome apps:)14:22

icerootjud: sort -u14:24
scarleopfifo, "Missing operating system"14:24
pfifoscarleo, did you use wget or the dd method?14:24
jeaquaresbazhang, i thought that ubuntu 11.04 uses gnome 3 either but not gnome shell14:24
RoyKJacco: GDM is active, but I can only find powerdown, clock and universal access prefs14:24
scarleopfifo, wget, just copy-pasted your line14:24
ActionParsnipjud: if you run: ls   do you see the filename? Are you using the right case?14:24
jeaquaresyou mean unity is based on gnome 2.32?14:25

JaccoRoyk.. what ubuntu version?14:25

JaccoOne more time till I wait patiently ;) : I managed to get grub2 efi working on my mac mini with out having to bless anything. So thats good, however, no matter how i configure my grub.cfg or make the grub-mkimage, I always shortly get the message Error: prefix not set on startup. The startup/grub works normally though. Except for the recordfail trigger .. so how can i fix that error message or did I find a bug? :)14:27
Sidewinder1jud, This is from the man page of sort with -u option: "-u, --unique14:27
Sidewinder1              with -c, check for strict ordering; without -c, output only the first of an equal run14:27
judActionParsnip: capitalisation? both are on the desktop even though it came back no such file14:27
JaccoRoyK: I know if you select the user and not type the password yet you can choose a shell instead of unity for example?14:27
judActionParsnip: but uniq-plum is empty14:28
RoyKJacco: got it - thanks14:28
=== krabbe is now known as Krabbe
pfifoscarleo, when it boots try 'bootting from first hard disk' and see if you get lucky, if not then go into the installer and you can install grub from the cli14:29
JaccoRoyK: yw14:29
judSidewinder1: i tried running sort -u but got no such file14:29
Sidewinder1jud, It's frustrating; but, I must say, at least you're tenacious. :-)14:30
scarleopfifo, no luck with that either, it just goes back to the bios splash where I can choose boot order14:30
cafenethow can i have my ubuntu with customize package on usb Flash?14:30
bazhangcafenet, sure, remaster the iso14:30
judSidewinder1: at Desktop$  sort -u plum.txt   is that right?14:30
bazhang!remaster | cafenet14:30
ubottucafenet: Interested in remastering the Ubuntu !live CD? See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization or use tools such as http://uck.sourceforge.net/ or http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/DRU_Disc_Remastering_Utility14:30
bazhangcafenet, then use unetbootin to put the iso on a flash key14:31
Sidewinder1jud, I think that's correct; but then don't you have to specify an output file?14:31
pfifoscarleo, in your working computer, can you 'mount /dev/sdb /mnt' and 'ls /mnt' to see that there is a filesystem on it?14:31
judSidewinder1:  makes sense but how would i do that/14:32
loganhi hi14:34
scarleopfifo, well there is files on it so I guess there is a filesystem as well. Disk utility says it's ext414:34
=== logan is now known as Guest65772
Jaccojud you can just redirect any output using sort -u file.txt > file2.txt or use the -o option14:34
Sidewinder1jud, Try this in the correct directory: sort -u plum.txt | uniq-plum.txt14:34
JaccoSidewinder1: i wouldnt do that actually14:35
Jaccothats a pipe not a redirect :)14:35
pfifoscarleo, run this 'md5sum /dev/sdb' just to be sure 7b383bcf55f09b1bb7e6614ed6e67a0e14:35
GalaxorI want my primary eth1 interface to be part of a bridge.  I can do this all with brctl and so forth, but I want it to be that way on bootup.  If I was on a server, I'd edit /etc/network/interfaces, but this is a desktop machine with network-manager.  Is there a way to store this type of thing in network-manager?14:35
Sidewinder1jud, Jacco I'm not good at cli; It was just a WAG on my part.14:35
JaccoSidewinder1: thats ok14:36
Jaccojud .. try also reading the ouput of 'man sort'14:36
edbianGalaxor: There is still a /etc/network/interfaces  file on the desktop.  It still works.  There is some monkey business between what that file controls and what network manager controls.  I never figured it out because I just got rid of network manager.14:37

judJacco: why do i keep getting back No such file or directory...i'm in the directory the file is in...???14:39

MarKsaitisOn my VM ubuntu install, for the forts start up it says I dont have HW to run unity...do blah blah blah to run classic stuff. Am I loosing a lot? What is this unity14:39
Sidewinder1Jacco, He's using sort14:39
szal!unity | MarKsaitis14:40
ubottuMarKsaitis: Unity is the default UI for Ubuntu 11.04. Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. You can still boot to GNOME; see !classic.14:40
cha0s_unity is a new interface with a side bar, vm can't run it becuse it needs graphic acceleration14:40

edbianmartian: I believe the only options are 'windows on this desktop' or 'all windows'  Maybe you can make each desktop span only one monitor?  (not sure gnome can do that)15:15

dirtydevilsgerbino: ya it worked actually i disabled 3d acceleration by mistake and i didn't knew about this fact15:16
edbianmartian: Not that I am aware of (native gnome stuff) but possibly.15:16
dirtydevilthanks for help15:16
sgerbinodirtydevil: glad to help :)15:17
khamerSystemDefault0: I don't think so, doesn't GDM manage logins/login sessions?15:17
edbiankhamer: nautilus draws the background and icons on the desktop15:17
pfifoscarleo, to install grub2 on a usb takes several steps, first youll need to partition it, im sure the last few things we did ruined the partition table, I use just one large partition.15:17
edbiankhamer: GDM manages logins15:17
pfifoscarleo, mark the partition bootable and type 83 or linux ext215:17

khamerllutz: thanks but not the WM, edbian got it15:19
edbiankhamer: I win!15:19
edbian:)15:19
khameredbian: yep, its nautilus, something is trying to keep it running too....15:19
llutzkhamer: :(15:19
SystemDefault0khamer: G.D.M Gnome Desktop manager.15:19
llutz:D15:19
SystemDefault0khamer: Display*15:19
scarleopfifo, ok, done15:19
edbiankhamer: Did you log in using gdm?  What session did you choose?15:19
khamerSystemDefault0: yeah, I meant the literal 'this is where the icons are' desktop, thanks though15:20
khameredbian: I'll double check, I thought XFCE...15:20
pfifoscarleo, now format it ext2 'mke2fs /dev/sdb' replace b with your drive15:20
new2netcan someone translate this into english:  "sshd re-exec requires execution with an absolute path"15:20
khameredbian: nautilus really wants to stay running though and I really don't want it to15:20
khameredbian: brb15:20
pfifoscarleo, sorry /dev/sdb115:20
edbiankhamer: XFCE does not have 'display manager' as far as I know.  You actually use GDM or something to start it.  (to log into it)15:20
FusionXI was wondering, I'm gonna re-format my computer in this order. Windows 7 with Daz Boot Loader and then Ubuntu with Grub. Will Grub mess up dazz boot loader?15:20
edbianFusionX: grub will overwrite it.15:21
edbianFusionX: so... yes.15:21
SystemDefault0edbian: Is it XServer?15:21
edbianSystemDefault0: Is what XServer ?15:21
FusionXBut doesn't it keep Windows Boot loader, edbian?15:21
scarleopfifo, I'll be right back, just a sec, need to reboot real quick15:21
nbprashanthHi. Can someone help me with packaging?15:22
pfifoscarleo, np15:22
engrxyzhi is there any way i can upgrade python on ubuntu from some version to another version?15:22
edbianFusionX: There is a portion on the disk called the Master Boot Record "MBR"  It has room for 1 boot loader (in fact it's not even big enough for those these days).  Any bootloader that gets installed will completely clobber any other bootloader that was in that spot.  There is only room for 1 at a time.15:22
khameredbian: somehow nautilus was saved to my session I think, and getting autostarted15:23
khameredbian: now that I killed the heck out of it and logged out/in, it's no longer saved into the session15:24
edbiankhamer: Yeah.  sounds like that's the case15:24
SystemDefault0edbian: The KDE display manager.15:24
edbiankhamer: It was remembering what was run last session and auto-starting it?15:24
nbprashanthCan anyone help me with packaging a library?15:24
edbianSystemDefault0: what about it?15:24
SystemDefault0edbian: Oh, forget it. I'm a little busy.15:25
edbianSystemDefault0: ok?15:25
scarleopfifo, ok back. Formated with ext215:25
SystemDefault0edbian: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/37/winvolks2.jpg/ I made it in GIMP 2.615:25
khameredbian: believe so, I had other things intentionally saved into the session (pidgin, opera) and I bet I accidentally saved nautilus (I was using it as a file explorer since it has SVN integration and thunar doesn't yet for a while)15:26
edbianSystemDefault0: looking15:26
pfifoscarleo, ok, now mount ot somewhere ie 'mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt'15:26
khameredbian: thanks!15:26
edbianSystemDefault0: ha, clever15:26
edbiankhamer: sure! :D15:26
scarleopfifo, done15:26
pfifoscarleo, to install grub2 run `grub-install --no-floppy --boot-directory=/mnt /dev/sdb` it shouldn't give any errors15:27
FusionXedbian: But Grub actually has an option for Windows Boot Loader during a dual-boot. Doesn't it. Does Grub specially support Windows boot loader?15:27
scarleopfifo, do you mean sdb1?15:28
edbianFusionX: Here are some more details.  A typical modern bootloader does not fit into the MBR.  Some of it goes into the MBR, some of it goes onto the disc (grub goes into the MBR and /boot/grub)15:28
SystemDefault0Well, gotta go. Bye!15:29
pfifoscarleo, no in this case the root of the drive is where you want to install grub (the MBR)15:29
edbianFusionX: By the way you worded it, I am assuming that grub's option for 'windows bootloader'  either 1) leaves the MBR untouched, does NOT install grub at all or 2) puts grub in the MBR and points one of the menu items at the windows bootloader portion that is on the disc.15:29
edbianFusionX: What questions do you have?  (I'm sure I'm confusing!)15:29
scarleopfifo, "error: embedding is not possible, but this is required for cross-disk install"15:29
edbianFusionX: You can boot windows using grub in the MBR15:30
pfifoscarleo, did you run that as root?15:30

RA_drchi,  how can i set up my ubuntu box so that other machines on my network can ssh to it?15:45
frater_sxhello everyone15:45
frater_sxis there a way to uninstall OR disable the gnome monitor configuration preferences, i.e. forcing the window manager to use xorg.conf.d AND/OR xorg.conf ?15:45
edbianRA_drc: install openssh-server15:45
ikoniaRA_drc: just install the pacakge openssh-server15:45
ikoniafrater_sx: if you put an xorg.conf in place, it will use it15:45
frater_sxikonia, should it be put in /etc/xorg.conf ?15:45
antoiner_roquentHi all, I am wondering about what web browsers people use with the new 11.04 Natty Narwhal release.15:45
ikoniafrater_sx: /etc/X11/xorg.cofn15:46
edbian!poll15:46
ubottuUsually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.15:46
ikoniaconf15:46
edbianantoiner_roquent: firefox415:46
frater_sxikonia, thanks. what about a 10-monitor.conf section in xorg.conf.d ?15:46
antoiner_roquentI have been using Firefox with my netbook (which has limited power, I'll admit) and it just seems to be very slow sometimes.15:46
royale1223Why cant my ntfs partiion cannot use trashcan feature?15:47
ikoniafrater_sx: what about it ?15:47
edbianantoiner_roquent: firefox 3.6 or firefox4 ?15:47
pfifoscarleo, I found a fix for the grub2 install problem, simply make the partition start on block #1 instead of block 1 and grub wont comaplain15:47
antoiner_roquentChecking that out now edbian.15:47
edbianantoiner_roquent: sure15:47
pfifoscarleo, er block 2 instead of block 1 lol15:48
frater_sxikonia, the point is that I have configured a xorg.conf and a 10-monitor.conf (presumably correctly since there's no error in the shell) but it still pretends to use that monitor preferences configuration (in ub 10.04 LTS)15:48
scarleopfifo, hmmm ok, how do I do that?15:48
bil21ale547:  i have joined that channel but  they said  jaoin ubuntu channel  they couldnt tell me15:48
bil21ale547 now what to do??15:48
pfifoscarleo, in fdisk it asks you when creating a partition15:49
antoiner_roquentedbian: It is the newest version, 4.015:49
frater_sxikonia, so I'd like to override that Monitor Preferences thing, since it's making X ignore my manual configuration15:49
edbianantoiner_roquent: Then I think you just have a slow processor.  Try chrome.15:50
antoiner_roquentThat's what I was thinking also.15:50
scarleopfifo, ok, thanks15:50
antoiner_roquentI am really surprised at how much Ubuntu allows my system to handle in the way of multi tasking as opposed to Windows XP, which was what I had loaded on this netbook previously.15:51
ikoniafrater_sx: hard code it in your xorg.conf, or remove the udev rule15:51
RA_drcedbian: ikonia: from my other machines, what would i ssh to?  i.e. how do i figure out the name of the target machine?15:51
edbianRA_drc: The easiest way is to use the local IP address of the server.15:51
antoiner_roquentedbian: have you been using Linux for a long time?15:51
ikoniaRA_drc: you set that when you installed it15:51
pcpowerantoiner_roquent: now just try to get something done without your windows apps, and die in frustration :)15:51
edbianantoiner_roquent: Since October 200715:52
antoiner_roquentHaha, I know this is the problem I've been running into.15:52
edbianpcpower: I have been using only linux for over 2 years now.15:52
engrxyzany chance somebody can give me a hint on how to fix this ...   python-application: Depends: python (>= 2.6.6-7~) but 2.6.5-0ubuntu1 is to be installed15:52
ZingerHEllo, Please me tune video mode in my Samsung RC710 laptop. I cann't plug on Visual Effect15:52
royale1223Why cant my ntfs partiion cannot use trashcan feature?15:52
antoiner_roquentI am still not very clear on packages and all that - although I did successfully use the console to install a google voice package yesterday.15:52
edbianHow can I find an op in this channel?15:52
frater_sxikonia, I'll look in /etc/udev/rules.d thanks15:53
ikoniaedbian: you have, or ask in #ubuntu-ops15:53
ikoniaroyale1223: possibly due to the fact that your ntfs partition will be mounted in userspace using fuse15:53
edbianikonia: thanks15:53
RA_drcedbian: how would i find out the local ip address of the server?15:53
savidHas anyone had issues when installing Gnome3 on 11.04?   I want to try it out, but I don't want to break the default Unity setup either (ie, I want to be able to revert if needed).15:53
royale1223ikonia: how do ifix it?15:53
royale1223ikonia: how do i fix it?15:53
edbianantoiner_roquent: Take a look at synaptic.  Helped me understand packages in the beginning15:53
ikoniaroyale1223: I don' think you can, I think it's a limitation15:53
RA_drcikonia: i wasn't the one who installed it, unfortunately15:53
ikoniaRA_drc: then ask the person who did15:54
edbianRA_drc: on the server.  Run ip addr   It is listed under inet15:54

ZingerHave you same problem with video mode  in Ubuntu please help me. The mode doesn't work on laptop15:54

coz_jonnyro,  ok red glass is located in /usr/share/icons/redglass , however,, they are listed as png or svg... you would have to , in terminal,,, gksudo nautilus,, maneauver to that location,, most likely  have to copy those to the desktop  rename them to either .png  or .svg,. then edit  and remove the .png  ...let me try here hold on16:10
KNUBBIGany idea why cp -rv would return false but no error message?16:10
MaximumResultsosmosis_paul, which php script do you need.   Yes, you probably need php5-cli16:10

antoiner_roquentThat helped me figure out my problem with my microphone.16:13
KNUBBIGIPNixon: a timeout after which it automagically starts the selected entry, you mean? It should already have that by default16:13
MaximumResultsantoiner,  I'll try that.16:13
antoiner_roquentAlso there's a setting under "sounds" in the system where you can select Analog Audio stuff16:14
IPNixonKNUBBIG, mine doesn't, it just hangs on the menu...i'm running server 9.1016:14
antoiner_roquentAnd you may need to set it to "duplex" mode instead of singular analog or whatever it says.16:14
MaximumResultsJust noticed that on May 24, I got an update on "pulseaudio-esound-compat" package16:14
KNUBBIGIPNixon: so you're probably on 'old' GRUB, not GRUB2, right?16:14
KNUBBIG!grub2 > IPNixon16:14
ubottuIPNixon, please see my private message16:14
MaximumResultsNot sure if that's when my sound issue started. That's possible.16:14
IPNixonKNUBBIG, i would think so16:15
IPNixon!grub116:15
antoiner_roquentIt could be. Someone said that PulseAudio is meant for higher end sound cards so perhaps if you're running something different it is complicating things?16:15
ubottugrub 1 is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub for Karmic onwards16:15

IPNixonmeant to send that to myself16:15
KNUBBIGIPNixon: I'm not entirely sure as some time has passed since I used it but you might have to use /etc/grub/menu.lst of /etc/grub/grub.cfg16:15

pfifoscarleo,  mount you install and chroot into it ;)16:32
guestguest: hmm... best thing to do, propably (hush) reboot!16:32
guestCrafto: these things are so tempremental, it's impossible to sort them out the UNIX way.16:32
pfifoscarleo, pretty much do the same thing the installer does, you should be able to simple 'grub-update' from inside your install16:32
MaximumResultsBack, with very strange results.16:33
MaximumResultsActually, one user on this machine was in the "audio" group.16:33
phong_is SSD faster then SATA?16:33
pfifoscarleo, ohh, your harddrive is probbally eith /dev/sdb or /dev/sde16:33
ActionParsnipphong_: SSD drives connect using the SATA connector16:33
MaximumResultsIf I log in as that user, sound works, and if I "change user" to any other user, sound continues to work.16:34
phong_I have intel 80GB SSD is it faster?16:34
KNUBBIGphong_: SSD and SATA are like horse and engine16:34
KNUBBIGphong_: faster then what?16:34
MaximumResultsBut if I log in with one of the other logins (like the one I usually use) first, sound is not working.16:34
phong_KNUBBIG, so i should not get SSD ?16:34
ActionParsnipphong_: platter based SATA drives are slower then SSD based SATA drives16:34
dr_willisphong_,  would depend on the exact drive if its faster then a given sata hd. I would say its faster.. but   is it worth it.16:34
KNUBBIGphong_: didn't mean that, actually16:34
scarleopfifo, aha, ok. I'll try with sdb or sde instead then16:34
ActionParsnipphong_: which is what I believe you meant16:34
julieKNUBBIG, phong_: KNUBBIG is right about SSD speed16:34
chickadeeGood morning / afternoon / day, everyone! ^_^\/16:35
julieand it is much less reliable16:35
KNUBBIGphong_: you also have to find out whether your machine supports it (a friend of mine got that issue)16:35
phong_so , to conclude, should i buy SSD?16:35
phong_KNUBBIG, it should16:35
ActionParsnipphong_: SSD drives do have limited write cyles so folders like /tmp and your web cache should be put in ram disk or platter based storage to reduce wear16:35
dasherif you don't know what SSD is used for, you shouldn't use it16:35
KNUBBIGphong_: depends on your system and if you need it16:35
dr_willisphong_,  is it worth the speed vs tjhe cost.. vs the small size16:35
phong_dr_willis, money is not an issue16:35
llutzdr_willis: it is :)16:36
dr_willisphong_,  money is always an issue....16:36
dasherSSD has the same write cycles as any other type of flash or solid state service, it has no moving parts16:36
phong_dr_willis, not for me.16:36
juliephong_, the only real big advantage of ssd is it's shock resistant16:36
dr_willisthey got $5000+ Uber fast drive systems.. go get one then16:36
guestphong_: it depends how valuable the speed of ubuntu loading up to you16:36
ActionParsnipphong_: could grab a 10G SSD and use it for / then use a platter based storage for /home and all the cache folders16:36
KNUBBIGdr_willis: <3 ty :D16:36
dasherwrite cycles are controlled by the CPU NOT the harddrive/storage16:36
guestphong_: personally, you'd do better giving it to a charity or something.16:36
dasherservice=storage16:36
phong_ok i'll just buy 30G SSD?16:37
dasherSSD is most often used in embedded systems16:37
dr_willisI couldent handle just a 30gb hd.. :)16:37
juliedasher, flash drives do have a limit in write cycles which is not CPU dependant16:37
dasherlimited by storage16:37
ActionParsnipdr_willis: set it as /, you only need about 5Gb for / ;)16:37
guestphong_: where would you get a 30 gig ssd from ?16:37
dr_willisI definatly needed more then 5gb for / the other day. :)16:38
KNUBBIGdr_willis: I actually manage to do well with 20gb for / on my laptop I'm currently on16:38
dasheri can show you bitmasking on a CPU, and show you it's very CPU dependent16:38
phong_guest from a store16:38
dr_willisbut that was for /tmp and /var/cache taking up a lot of space.16:38
phong_electronic store16:38
guestphong_: do they sell them that small i mean16:38
guestthats smaller than some flash drives16:38
phong_guest, not much , but i do see it16:38
guestphong_: ok16:38
dasherlimited write cycles, lmao16:39
ActionParsnipdr_willis: http://paste.ubuntu.com/622659/ ;)16:39
dasheri love how ppl in here pretend they know wtf they're talking about16:39
juliedasher, this is a physical limitation of flash16:39
* guest 16:39
KNUBBIGdasher: yes, the life of an SSD depends on the write cycles16:39

guest[oops ... sorry]16:39
dasherjulie: i use flash, on embedded CPUs, within embedded systems, that is hogwash16:39
Sidewinder1Wow! An entire page that's OT; that's a first. :-)16:40
dasherwhoever told you that doesn't know what they're blabbering about16:40
ActionParsnipdasher: "Solid state drives that use flash memory have a limited number of writes over the life of the drive.[56][57][58][59]SSDs based on DRAM do not have a limited number of writes." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_drive16:40

juliescarleo, did you try to mount /lib as a bind16:44
pfifo--root-directory16:44
pfifoscarleo, you need a 64bit kernel to run 64bit programs16:45

MaimsterHey everyone. Hot enough 4U?17:00
rinkukokiripfifo when you try to boot   are you sent to grub>  ?17:00
pfiforinkukokiri, im helper, scarleo is helpee, his usb disk was sending him to (initramfs)17:01
KNUBBIGPolah: I think he's using a standard 10.10 with the macubuntu (or whatever it's called) customization pack, which uses gnome2 afaik17:01
PolahMaimster: I'd expect a 4U server to have decent cooling.17:01
ukr_888I have a gigabit LAN here at home and my ubuntu client + debian server NFS is crawling below 100 mbps; any suggestions? Switich supports jumbo frames and all Nics are negotiated at 1Gps speeds...17:01
k5673Time to eat! See ya, fellas!17:02
polybius_Jose, who had finished a graveyard shift at the Asarco copper mine, was sleeping when a SWAT team from the Pima County Sheriff's Office laid siege to his home on the morning of May 5. Vanessa was doing laundry, and the couple's four-year-old son Joel was watching "Transformers," when the SWAT raiders pulled up in a Bear Cat armored vehicle.17:02
polybius_The siren sounded for less than ten seconds; just a few seconds later, the order to "breach" the door was given because, as on-scene commander Deputy Bob Krygier later explained, nobody inside the house had "submitted to our authority."17:02
polybius_Vanessa initially thought that there was an emergency "somewhere in the neighborhood," and called the police. When she saw armed intruders on her property, Vanessa screamed for her husband to wake up. Jose told Vanessa to take their younger son (whose older brother, Jose, Jr., was in school) and hide in the closet, while he went to confront the invaders.17:02
polybius_Seconds later, Jose was sprawled face-first in a pool of his own blood, shredded by more than sixty rounds fired by the SWAT team. That's how his four-year-old son would later find him. Joel was left alone after Vanessa, who had gone out to plead for someone to get medical help for her husband, was assaulted and brutalized by the SWAT operators and then detained for questioning. The child remained alone in the house with the body of his dead17:02
pfiforinkukokiri, current grub2 is broken in ubuntu, hence usb disk creator is also broken17:02
coolpyrofreakSeriously?17:02

ubottupolybius_, please see my private message17:02
julieukr_888, have you isolated the machines in your tests?17:02
=== dab is now known as Guest11315
Polahukr_888: Every part of the connection needs to have gigabit capability. Ethernet ports, switches, router and cable.17:02
ukr_888Its only the server and the client on my network17:03
KNUBBIGPolah: afaik a cable which is for 100MBit also is applicable for 1GBit17:03
julieukr_888, so no other machine, no wireless connection, no other network access at all?17:03
ukr_888Polah: I have Cat 6 cable and I am using IPs instead of DNS names. And no no other machines17:04
julieKNUBBIG, Polah:  actually cat 5 can work for 100mbps but cat 6 is needed for gbps17:04
julieukr_888, did you by any chance try to mount it locally to see if you got similar speeds?17:05
ActionParsnipjulie: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category_5_cable  you can get 1000BaseTX with Cat617:05
phong_KNUBBIG, i learn that SSD don't consume much power right?17:05
isleshocky77Is there a way of viewing previous copy/pastes in the clipboard in ubuntu 10.10 if you haven't installed anything previously to do exactly that?17:05
KNUBBIGphong_: right17:05
KNUBBIGanyone got an idea why 'cp -rv ~ .' would return false but no error message?17:06
phong_KNUBBIG, cool, cause the regular HD will spin all days and eat up all the juice17:06
coz_isleshocky77,  I think zeitgeist does that but not sure17:06
ukr_888Polah: I did do a localhost mount on the server loopback and it works fast. Running a p4 machine at 3.4 GHz onboard Giagbit lan and 4 Gigs of ram on the server17:06
ActionParsnipisleshocky77: if you have parcelite or similar, yes17:06
julieActionParsnip, I don't get your point17:06
ActionParsnip(17:04:14) julie: KNUBBIG, Polah:  actually cat 5 can work for 100mbps but cat 6 is needed for gbps17:07
julieActionParsnip, that's what I said a minute ago17:07
pcpowercat6 is not necessary in every case17:07
ActionParsnipjulie: you don't NEED cat6 for 1000base-t you can get it with Cat517:07
ukr_888Polah: I guess I can try crossover cable maybe its the switch17:07
julieActionParsnip, I won't start arguing but wouldn't bet on its reliability17:07
Polahukr_888: If it's not a gigabit switch then it'll be slowing down your entire connection.17:07
ActionParsnipjulie: its still possible, there was never any mention of reliability...17:08
isleshocky77coz_: ActionParsnip: Are these something that would've need to be installed already? Or do they come stock? I just copies over something very important I need so I need one back. I know that there is software that will keep a history. But I'm wondering if gnome keeps it somewhere alrewady.17:08
julieActionParsnip, I agree as the protocol can not verify the cable17:08
coz_isleshocky77,  is this 11.04..yes?17:08
llutzukr_888: gigabit-ethernet needs special crossover-wiring17:08
ActionParsnipjulie: that was my point :D17:08
ActionParsnipisleshocky77: yes it needs installing extra17:08
isleshocky77coz_: Ubuntu 10.1017:09
pfifoscarleo, I need a reboot, brb17:09
scarleopfifo, ok17:09
ukr_888It is a gigabit switch... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E1683315625017:09
julieukr_888, did you benchmark it locally as I mentionned earlier?17:10
ppcI'm trying to figure out how to set up this machine I was wondering if someone could help me, I want to use a USB drive for the boot drive and a sata drive for everything else.  I created a drive using the live usb maker from a ubuntu vm I have but I'm not sure this is what I want.  Can someone point me in the right direction?17:10
julieppc, once your drive is prepared with the installer, just set your PC to boot from USB and try it17:10
KNUBBIGanyone got an idea why 'cp -rv ~ .' would return false but no error message?17:10
ukr_888Polah: what exactly you want me to try again?17:11
ActionParsnipppc: you can install ubuntu to the USB using the usb persistant install, the internal drive will be drastically faster than the USB17:11
ppcjulie: Yeah it boots buyt it's just like a live cd17:11
mjchmm.  for some reason, the cpu hotplug code forgets to online my non-boot cores after waking up from suspend... I can enable them manually via /sys but still17:11
Jordan_Uppc: Just do a normal install install to the USB.17:11
ppcJordan_U: it doesn't show up17:11
coz_isleshocky77,  there is also something named  "diodon"  clipboard manager,, not in the repositories however17:11
ActionParsnipppc: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent17:11
Jordan_Uppc: What doesn't show up where?17:11
julieppc, if it boots, then just run the installation process17:11
ppcActionParsnip: yeah I was reading that17:11
coz_isleshocky77,    https://launchpad.net/~diodon-team/+archive/stable17:12
ActionParsnipppc: I believe the install can now go from the CD onto USB, not tried it though17:12
quesoWhen I do a dpkg -l package* the full package name isn't displayed in the results, it's cut off by the width of the column that lists the names.  Is there a way to see the full names?17:12
ppcWhen the USB drive boots, its just like a livecd and it wants a drive to install, I want to install to the USB drive I just booted from though17:12
coolpyrofreakppc: just make sure that /etc/fstab is configured to mount /boot from your usb drive17:12
coolpyrofreakppc: Can't do that17:12
isleshocky77coz_: Once again though, this would've had to be already on the machine. Correct?17:12
ppcYeah, I wouldn't think you could17:12
brown_fernKNUBBIG: In addition to asking here I'd also try #bash .17:12
coolpyrofreakppc: You can't install an OS to a drive that's running a different OS17:13
ppcYeah I figured17:13
KNUBBIGbrown_fern: thanks, I'll try17:13
coz_isleshocky77,  well that PPA  is for installing that particular application... off hand I cant think of something already onboard for this but let me check17:13
Jordan_Uppc: coolpyrofreak: If you pass the "toram" kernel parameter then you can install to the drive you booted from.17:13
coolpyrofreakppc: So you could do it if you booted from a CD or a different USB drive17:13
juliebut ppc, you already have a running system with that livecd, what do you want to install on it?17:13
KNUBBIGqueso: try dpkg -l | grep package17:13
ppccoolpyrofreak: well I have a ubuntu vm17:14
isleshocky77coz_: Yeah. I need something that I just copied over. So it would be one copy into the history of the clipboard. I'm thinking it should still be in gnomes memory or something somewhere.17:14
ukr_888OK so I just replaced the cables that I bought on newegg with the ones I made and restarted the interfaces I am now getting about the same speed17:14
julieukr_888, did you try it locally?17:15
=== elphel__ is now known as sebastian___
coolpyrofreakppc: What VM program are you using?17:15
ukr_888Yes I did, its the same17:15
ppcVmware fusion, os x17:15
julieukr_888, if you don't get faster speeds locally, then don't waste your time looking at the network setup17:15
julieukr_888, it's a disk access limitation at this point17:16
coz_isleshocky77,  yeah I think something might have to be installed glipper  or diodon,, so far i cant find a way to display that history17:16
coolpyrofreakppc: You should be able to download a live cd iso and run it from the VM without burning it to a disk.  Then mount your USB inside the VM and run the install program and specify your USB drive as the destination17:16
isleshocky77coz_: shnikes. That's what I'm afraidof.17:16
quesoKNUBBIG: thanks17:16
coz_isleshocky77,  looking to see if there is a not well know command hold on17:17
coolpyrofreakppc: I mean boot from the iso17:17
ppcWell the whole reason I am doing this is because I have an existing drive but it's got a bunch of data on it and it's ntfs, the only drive I have now is a few usb thumb drives17:17
royale1223ikonia: i fixed it.17:17
isleshocky77coz_: Thanks. I've been searching for 30 mins. Can't find anything.17:17
coz_isleshocky77,   there is also this   http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/tag/clipboard/17:17
isleshocky77I'm just trying to access gnome-clipboard-daemon.17:18
ppcSo I figured it would make sense to install the os to the thumb drive and store all the data on the ntfs partition17:18
ukr_888Well I guess I can try my SAS drives and see how it goes. This isnt a production server yet but I was hoping it'd work right off the bat17:18
ppcOr is there a way to resize the ntfs with gparted or something?17:18
royale1223ppc: ofcourse17:18
dr_willisppc,  you can resize NTFS withj gparted. but i find windows can resize ntfs a lot faster17:18
ppcI dont have a windows install17:18
dr_willisppc,  make backups of stuff befor trying resizweing17:18
ukr_888Im thinking raid 0+117:18
ppccan't17:18
dr_willisData worth keeping is worth backing up..17:19
goldenhi17:19
julieukr_888, 0+1 is a good choice if you have 4 disks or more17:19
dr_willispower failure during resize = very bad.17:19
royale1223dr_willis: i agree17:19
dr_willisGrandson pushing the power button during resize is also very bad.. had that happen last week.17:19
coz_isleshocky77,  nope,, I cant find anything other than parcelite,, diodon,, glipper and that link I gave you17:19
coz_isleshocky77,  sorry guy17:19
royale1223dr_willis: backing it up before resizing would be a good idea.17:19
goldenI want to copy a directory and make it being exatly the same as the copied directory, is cp -a the appropriate command ?17:19
isleshocky77coz_: Thanks. Well there goes an hours worth of work in one keystroke thanks to basecamp.17:20
juliegolden, you should use tar17:20
isleshocky77coz_: Time to install a pastebin history tool17:20
coz_isleshocky77,   I think that may be a good idea,, but I am still looking17:20
goldentar ? I never used that command17:20
juliegolden, tar has a permission option17:20
llutzgolden: cp -a   will do fine17:20
ukr_888Well I am running the Drives in a JBOD connected with a fiber card atm. Ima put them on a different card and see if the onboard controller is faster. Although the Fiber card a 16x pcie card17:21
pfifoscarleo, I have a grub.cfg for you when your ready17:21
isleshocky77Does firefox keep a short log of requests anywhere? Other than if I actually had my headers or firebug network on at the time?17:21
juliegolden, tar --preserve -cvf newfile.tar foldertoarchive17:21
goldenbut I also want the destination directory to have a different name than the original directory17:21
scarleopfifo, thanks. I am dd-ing the 64-bit version now. Set first cylinder to 2 with fdisk17:22
juliegolden, would it be located in the same location?17:22
scarleopfifo, took me a while to figure out how :)17:22
pfifoscarleo, you dont need to fdisk anything when you dd the mini.iso17:22
goldenyes17:22
goldenmy aim is to copy my home directory which is encrypted17:22
goldento an other not encrypted17:22
goldenand make the /home of my actual user17:23
scarleopfifo, but I had to use th 64-bit version and therefore I needed to set the first cylinder/block to 2 to make grub2 work?17:23
goldenmake it*17:23
scarleopfifo, or did I misunderstand you?17:23
goldenin order to remove the encryption of my home17:23
juliegolden, the following should be about right: mkdir newfolder; cd oldfolder; (tar --preserve -c; cd ../newfolder)|tar --preserve -xv17:23
pfifoscarleo, no, theres 2 options, dd mini.iso to a usbstick OR fdisk properly and install grub2 to the usb stick so you can isoboot.17:24
KNUBBIGwhy does my laptop suddenly open programs on its own without me doing anything? :D17:24
goldenok julie, thanks !17:24
juliegolden, corrected: mkdir newfolder; cd oldfolder; (tar --preserve -c *; cd ../newfolder)|tar --preserve -xv17:24
scarleopfifo, is there a 64-bit mini.iso also? I didn't even think of that17:24
aohow do u install usb wireless card?17:24
ukr_888I am also looking for a good online resource where I can learn how to compile a custom kernel for ubutnu/debian. A tutorial would be great17:25
juliegolden, hold on17:25
r3duxHa! Ha! Ha! (sorry, it's pre-programmed)17:25
juliegolden, I made another mistake17:25
pfifoscarleo, `wget -O /dev/sdb "http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso"`17:25
dr_willis!kernel | ukr_88817:25
ubottuukr_888: The core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages)17:25
juliegolden, new fix: mkdir newfolder; cd oldfolder; tar --preserve -c *|(cd ../newfolder; tar --preserve -xv)17:25
goldenjulie,  thanks, I'm doing "tar ---preserve -c *" right now17:26
juliegolden, no17:26
juliethat will only archive everything to stdout17:26
ukr_888ubottu: thank you very much I just wanna learn :)17:26
r3duxNo love for tar.gz?17:26
ubottuukr_888: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)17:26
ArduinologistWhen I create a directory as a user in ubuntu it does not inherit the permissions of the parent directory, how do I fix this?17:26
scarleopfifo, great thanks :)17:26
brown_fernKNUBBIG: is your touchpad overly sensitive? I had to turn off the touchpad clicking on this laptop for that very reason, I now can only click with the dedicated left and right buttons.17:27
juliegolden, the following needs to be run in one command:  tar --preserve -c *|(cd ../newfolder; tar --preserve -xv)17:27
goldenI don't understand17:27
ukr_888Lol17:27
goldenok I'll do that17:27
pfifoscarleo, but ive never tried the dd trick with the 64bit iso, it should still work though, all it needs todo is load the kernel and initrd afterall17:27
KNUBBIGbrown_fern: no, had my hands away from the laptop at that time, maybe my fat stomach pushed the buttons, hehe, but tyvm :)17:27
goldenL'option --preserve est obsolète, utilisez --preserve-permissions --preserve-order à la place17:28
goldenI should do that julie ?17:28
brown_fernKNUBBIG: That is beyond my expertise! :-D17:28
juliegolden, yep :)17:28
llutzgolden: cp -ax old/ new/17:29
KNUBBIGbrown_fern: would've wondered if you said something else ;-) thanks nevertheless :)17:29
aousb wireless help anyone?17:29
r3duxjulie, without analysing what it's doing no-one's happy with your: tar --preserve -c *|(cd ../newfolder; tar --preserve -xv) command.17:30
scarleopfifo, me neither :) this little project feels like a lot of trial and error17:30
juliegolden: llutz's alternative is right and should do exactly the same thing17:30
julier3dux, why don't you like it?17:30
goldenok thanks you two :)17:30
r3duxBecause I need to work out what it'll do in a directory full of directories17:30
sayzhi guys...17:31
pfifoscarleo, ive done the mini.iso thing so many times it always just works for me, guess it was bound to break sometime17:31
quesoIf some services fail to start (after the kernel has loaded), where can I see the log from booting to determine what failed?  It's not in dmesg or /var/log/messages.17:31
pfifoscarleo, murphy's law right17:31
julier3dux, tar is an archiving tool, it archives everything in it recursively17:31
scarleopfifo, you're definitely right17:32
r3duxI have no idea why one tar command is piping the compressed outcome of its own compression to another tar command in a "/newfolder" location17:32
brown_fernKNUBBIG: It is only a guess but I wonder if it is in fact that pesky touchpad starting to malfunction, is it dirty, old or such? I can't think of much else that would cause what you're describing. Hmm... actually opening things though, does it do it all the time or just once?17:32
julier3dux, it is not compressed17:32
ppcJordan_U: alright I am installing it to the usb drive directly now, I was gonna just set it up as ext2 instead of fat32 and it's asking me what I want the mount point to be and gives me a list of options, all I want to use this drive for is to boot the OS so just use /boot?17:32
julier3dux, it simply copies one folder to another one17:32
r3duxWell that's okay then, isn't it?17:33
julier3dux, it is :)17:33
dr_willisppc,  you need a /  not a /boot/  unless you want both.17:33
r3duxIt's still a very cryptic and hard to understand "batch file" ;)17:33
ppcdr_willis: wouldn't that mean everythign would go on the usb drive then?17:33
KonzaHi all is there any way to escape # character in expect script17:33
r3duxI'm not saying it doesn't get the job done - I'm just saying... oh... okay :)17:34
Jordan_Uppc: You need to put '/' somewhere, but yes you can put just /boot/ on the USB drive and '/' somewhere else if you want.17:34
IsrafelI've noticed the Remove Desktop doesn't let you change from the default 5900 port. In fact, there's almost no options at all.17:34
pfifoscarleo, really ever since i setup grub2 on my usb stick its been smooth sailing i just copy the new iso over the old one and boot, works with all the ubuntu images except the mini, which is where this dd thing came into play17:34
ppcwell I have a sata ntfs drive, i want to use it but I can't resize it and it's got some extra space17:34
dr_willisppc,  how big is this flash drive? I do full installs of ubuntu to 4gb flash drives.. but 8gb is proberly the min. for a useable system17:34
dr_willisppc,  you dont 'install' part of the os to a NTFS .. you can access the ntfs from an installed os.17:34
ppcIts 4gb17:35
IsrafelDoes anyone know how to change the listening port for Remove Desktop?17:35
brown_fernKNUBBIG: I turned off      System Settings>>Mouse>>Mouse Pad tab>>Enable mouse pad click. While in the GUI for Ubuntu 11.04, of course. It is just a thought.17:35
dr_willisYou can set up a live-cd or live+persistant setup on a 4gb.17:35
ppcSo / can't be on the ntfs drive?17:35
dr_willisppc,  / can NOT be on a NTFS17:35
julieno ppc17:36
KNUBBIGbrown_fern: thanks17:36
dr_willisYour users /home/ wouldent work very well on a NTFS either.. You could make a 'disk image file' on the ntfs.. but thats getting a little extreme17:36
mjcbest you can get on ntfs is a loopback, via wubi, but dunno if you'd want to do that w/ 4GB17:36
dr_willisppc,  what sofr ot work are you planing to do with this system?17:37
ppcdr_willis: why not?17:37
dr_willissort of...17:37
juliedr_willis, ppc:  doing a loop fs on NTFS actually works real well17:37
KNUBBIGI'm off for now, byebye17:37

ppcdr_willis: well I wanted to setup some ids/networking stuff to learn some of that17:37
brown_fernKNUBBIG: just shooting-in-the-dark, but I hope that it helps. :)17:37
dr_willisjulie,  but setting up /home/ would mean making it in fstab and  so on.. and I think he has no windows isntall.. so im not sure why hes not just using extt2 :017:37
ppcspare machine to mess around with17:37
ppcdr_willis: because the drive is already setup and it's from an old windows machine17:38
dr_willisppc,  a normal install to 4gb may work. but it will get tight. 8gb would work very well for testing17:38
dr_willisunless you want to go the live+persistant route17:38
julieppc, dr_willis: why don't you just reformat it?17:38
ppcIt has data on it17:39

llutzLasivian: a port "is open" if a service listens on it. so your 9000 "is open"17:50
Lasivianjulie: I need 4 ports open to the outside. I have another box with existing functional ports so i'm (almost completely) certain the router is routing correctly and the internal IPS are routing correctly, ports is the only thing I think is left to investigate17:50
RA_drcBluesKaj: the driver i am interested in is not listed as a ppa17:50
Dark_WolfSidewinder1: the instructions on the Ubu Wiki don't work, as I'm on 64 bit17:50
julieLasivian, llutz is right, you don't just decide a port is open, you need to install a listener on it17:51
BluesKajRA_drc, ok what driver , and where is it ?17:51
Lasiviansigh, I rebooted the router and the ports show as open17:51

Cameron904oh forgot, my laptop is running 10.0419:08
onetwothreeaTi the srt is the subtitle file19:08
onetwothreein this case19:08
pfifoaTi, you need to renamt the .srt, if you movie is name 'movie.avi' then you subs need to be name 'movie.srt' the names must match19:08
aTiyes i know, but why it don`t show on the screen ?19:08
NorthernenIf you have the srt file, you have the subtitles. It's just another format.19:08

PsydollHello i need help trying to compile a program from a .tar.gz can anyone help me with a simple program?19:41
r3duxalvinPH - why what?19:41
jrib!compile | Psydoll19:41
ubottuPsydoll: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first)19:41
alvinPHwhy you are here? :D19:42
llutz!checkinstall | Psydoll19:42
ubottuPsydoll: 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!19:42
ppcOk, I finally got my natty narwhal installed on a usb drive and it booted and works but the monitor isn't redrawing correctly, I'm using a TV as a monitor and there doesn't seem to be the right settings in the monitor prefs19:42
r3duxalvinPH - I'm just replying and helping people if I can. Anything else is gravy.19:42
ppcdo I just need to edit a xorg file or something?19:42
alvinPHLOL, so help me then .:D19:42
r3duxYou should not need to edit /etc/xorg.conf19:43
alvinPHr3dux: is installing other desktop env. makes my xubuntu bloat?19:43

RA_drchi, can someone tell me  how to backport a driver? i am using meerkat, and the driver can be found here: http://boundarydevices.com/blogs/omnivision-ov5642-camera-driver-for-linux19:44
NorthernenDefault there isn't even an xorg.conf is there?19:44
ActionParsnipNorthernen: no but if one is present it will be obeyed19:44
NorthernenPsydoll: first extract it from the tarball with tar -xvzf name.tar.gz19:45

r3duxAlvin, xubuntu makes my 555-ORG all anti-sematic19:45
alvinPHmy main is xubuntu 11.04 then installed ubuntu-netbook , lxde then e17 then openbox just came out.. i'm now in troubled removing apps they brought hahaha:D19:45

ActionParsnipalvinPH: lxde will install openbox for you ;)19:46
alvinPHr3dux: what is that/ so technical, i'm a newbie in linux, just over a month :D19:47
PsydollNorthernen: Im able to untar files thats the easy part19:47
alvinPHactionParsnip; ahh, see, does it affect boot time?19:47
PsydollNorthernen: the hard part is for me when i go to the newly created directory and dont know what to do from there19:47
ActionParsnipalvinPH: not at all, you select the desktop at boot, this in turn chooses the WM19:48
r3duxHmm! What is this you say! I am the jew. They take from me the "apps". This is not nice. This is what they are taking from me and with the trouble. Andy by saying "with the trouble" I just confuse evereyone, and annoy non  religious-idiots..19:48
llutzPsydoll: check if theres a README or INSTALL file. if so, read it19:48
llutzr3dux: take your random nonsense out here please19:48
alvinPHactionParsnip; but why does my grub flashes again after selecting xubuntu?19:48
oCeanr3dux: can you please stay on topic?19:48
NorthernenIf you've un-tared it, cd into the new directory and do a ./configure19:48
Rollinon topic or the ban hammers will come out. thank you.19:49
ActionParsnipalvinPH: that loads even before the kernel loads, so is nothing to do with openbox or lxde being installed19:49
ActionParsnipRollin: how do you intend to do that exactly?19:50
alvinPHActionParsnip: but why does my xubuntu boot quite longer than before?19:50

ActionParsnipalvinPH: not sure, run:   dmesg | less      look at the left colomn for the time (in seconds) watch for large gaps19:51
alvinPHanitya: yes, but be sure to install the bootloader on it, not on your harddrive :D19:51
ActionParsnipanitya: sure, use unetbootin with an MD5 tested ISO and you can install Ubuntu via USB19:51

RoastedI'm installing Ubuntu 11.04, and I tried in the manual partition mode to mount my 2nd drive to a specific location (/media/storage). However, I can't seem to put my own location in there, I have to use their pre-defined ones like /boot, etc. How can I change this?19:55
ActionParsnipRollin: so how will you roll out the ban hammers, I'm awful curious...19:55
ActionParsnipRoasted: is it not user typable?19:56

RoastedActionParsnip, I've used this method for years... :(19:56

smudgeso i've just installed 11.04 and then the additional drivers (geforce 7300) if I attempted to login to anything higher than Classic(no effects) my mouse or keyboard dont work, can anyone help ?19:56
pfifoRollin, by saying the ban hammers you implied that you would be rolling out the banhammers. in english you can implay things like that without actually saying them19:56

Rollinseriously19:56
Northernensmudge: which drivers are you using?19:57
smudgethe recommended ones19:57

Cerealklr[Ubuntu 11.04][Python][TTY-semi-functional] Hello! I've got a bit of a big issue... Was trying to follow the instructions for installing Google App Engine, which for some reason requires python2.5 I compiled it from source, found that didn't work for various reasons, and at length was told by a friend that the instructions were just outdated. I noticed that the install had set py2.5 to be my default python. Of course, that was silly,20:36
Cerealklrso I went ahead and did purged python2.5 where the symlink pointed and redirected the symlinks to python2.7. Unfortunately, upon restarting the system, gdm showed nothing but a background. Swapping into TTY, I found most applications no longer worked properly, due to some variant of this error: http://pastebin.com/2GygRXQF With libz and "no version information..." being common across all of the errors. Any ideas on how to get this fix20:36

XaseAnyone know why an AMD computer with an AMD vision setup on Natty Narwhal would be... "Laggy" ?21:40
klownXase, I may try it, the look of some of the new gnome3 shells are pretty nice.  Would def make it worth it.  I'm sure upgrading later would require a full install.21:40

Xaseklown, you might want to try doing what I do from now on if you're a bit familiar with linux, and keep a seperate home partition.21:41
XaseThat way all your really vital files remain intact.21:41
klownXase, thats a good idea..Maybe I'll try it if gnome 3 breaks :P21:42
mvsni was wondeirng if someoen would be willing to help me... i have a machine with two brand new 1tb hard drives.. i've tried raid-1, i cannot install ubuntu 11.04... i removed the raid, and tried a plain install to the one hard drive.. i still cannot get ubuntu to install... it always says no bootable system found... is there a guide anyone could suggest how to properly configure an ubuntu with two hard drives, or a raid-1 setup?21:42
rationalOgregbase: On that link > Note: In Ubuntu 11.04, if the driver fails to load, you may need to reinstall the bcmwl-kernel-source package. This can be done from Synaptic -> Mark for Reinstallation.21:42
XaseIt's good for tinkering and if and when stuff breaks, you don't have to go oh crap! where's my backup.21:42
fallenangelneed help installing drivers for ATI. trying to follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI but something is going wrong. i keep getting "sudo: aticonfig: command not found"21:42
XaseI'm getting terrible lag on an ATI/AMD system with 4gigs of ram =/21:43
klownUpgrade to 8gb :P21:43
Xasevideos are choppy and there's an obvious delay with typing and stuff actually apppearing on screen...21:43
XaseIt wouldn't be a big deal if this wasn't being built as an arcade machine.21:43
fallenangelXase: YES! same problem here21:43
XaseIt's not the ram...21:43
XaseI'm sure it's the gfx card itself21:43
klownXase, I was kidding.21:43
klownWhich gfx card?21:43
Xasefallenangel: good then someone else can help draw attention to our woes.21:44
XaseAMD/Ati 4200 series21:44
thisismygameI've installed minimal ubuntu on 2 computers in the last 24hrs. They both install fine, reboot and get to Grub, where after that they have nothing but a blank black screen. Am I missing something here?21:44

LeJoker_Hi, #ubuntu, networking question. I have 50+ GB to move across computers. I don't have an external HDD or a big enough USB Drive. What is the best way to move the files? :o21:45
XasefFunny... I've never had issues with NVidia... only ATI21:45
fallenangelXase: trying to install Catalyst 11.5 to see if it makes differeance but i can't seem to get it working21:45

LeJoker_(Moving files from Natty to Xubuntu)21:45
atichsou do Brasil21:45
XaseI had it installed the other day fallenangel but didn't get a chance to test it before I crashed the computer with Gnome 3 :(21:45
JohnnyonFlameatich: Esse chat é em inglês amigo.21:45
ZykoticK9_LeJoker_, honest answer: external HD or USB - it's gonna take forever across a network21:46
klownLeJoker_, considered using dropbox or something similar?  I'm not sure about the max file size.21:46
LeJoker_I have an ethernet cable, but I've been told that its not possible to move across computers like that with Ubuntuu21:46
fallenangelXase: haha. keep getting sudo: aticonfig: command not found and i have no idea what to do :P bit of a noob21:46
LeJoker_Ubuntu*21:46
jxa blabluga21:46
jxabblabluga21:47
ZykoticK9_klown, you must be a real "clown" to think you can copy 50GB to Dropbox and back (in one lifetime) [well, maybe if you have a T3 or fiber]21:47
rationalOgreLeJoker_: Are both computers connected on a home network?21:47
Xasehmm try the visual configuration tool fallenangel ?21:47
LeJoker_rationalOgre: Yes, via WiFi21:47
rationalOgreLeJoker_: Then there are literally hundreds of ways21:47
klownZykoticK9_, it was an option..no need to insult me.21:47
LeJoker_I don't know how to work the networking in Ubuntu though :P21:47
LeJoker_rationalOgre: One is all I need. I'm a bit of a ubuntu noob :P21:48
rationalOgreLeJoker_: Is one computer a windows box?21:48
LeJoker_rationalOgre: Nope, else I wouldn't have this issue :D21:48
XaseAnyone else also not able to hear the Google Doodle todaY!?!?!?!?21:48
ZykoticK9_klown, sorry.  You're right, that was rude of me.  Sorry man.21:48
rlyZykoticK9_: 50GB is not that much.21:48
LeJoker_rationalOgre: One is Natty, other is Xubuntu Natty :P21:48
rationalOgreLeJoker_: Ok.21:48
ZykoticK9_rly, even across a local ethernet network 50GB will take some serious time.21:49
klownit will take about 2 hours.21:49
fallenangelXase: i dont think its installing right. i have nothing to do with Catalyst in my system menu :(21:49
klownI did 66 gigs in about 2 1/2 hours.21:49
jamesKHey. So on 11.04 grub2 isn't automatically detecting my Windows 7 partition and adding it to the menu using grub2-update. What do I do?21:49
XaseHmm...21:49
LeJoker_I'm prepared for slow transfers, I just need these files to be moved :P21:49
rationalOgreLeJoker_: Is it a single file or a directory you are copying?21:49
LeJoker_rationalOgre: Directory21:49
rlyZykoticK9_: in Internet2 terms 50GB is a joke for example.21:50
LeJoker_One folder with 3 inside it, plus some lose files21:50
klownLeJoker_, is purchasing an external harddrive not an option?21:50
rlyZykoticK9_: for a major corporation it is also a joke.21:50

rationalOgreLeJoker_: Do you know the IP address of both computers?21:50
rlyThat said, imho, Dropbox is a failure.21:50
XaseLeJoker_: if you live in Mass, US i'd give you one.21:50
rlyPerhaps it does work if you pay, though.21:51
Xgateshey guys21:51
mengui have ubuntu 11.04 and flash sucks. i have my ati driver installed, i have adobe-flash installed21:51
mengubut it truly sucks21:51
LeJoker_Xase: Nope I don't. Thanks though :)21:51
klownrly, I didnt know the "unpaid" part until just now.21:51
menguhow can i fix it21:51
Xgatessay anyone using winetricks, how does that compare to just installing wine?21:51
LeJoker_rationalOgre: Not offhand but I can look it up easy enough21:51
klownXgates, it has lots of auto configs for certain apps/games, pretty good in my opinion21:51
bradlandusing the "Network Connections" applet in Ubuntu 11.04, changes i make do not take effect when i click "Save". is a reboot required?21:51
ZykoticK9_mengu, flash on linux has (and probably always will be) poor at best.  Viv la HTML5 ;)21:52
rationalOgreLeJoker_: Ok, On the computer that you want the files to go TO, install and set up SSH21:52
rationalOgreSpecifically, you want the ssh server (daemon)21:52
Xgatesklown: thing is it's using wine1.2 and wine is at 1.3 and I want to install MS office with it for someone, so not sure which would be better to go with21:52
LeJoker_rationalOgre: I know what ssh is but I have no idea how I would go about setting that up.21:52
menguwith 10.10 i had no problem ZykoticK9_21:52
XaseXgates:  winetricks is just an accessory, and it is really helpful.21:52
rationalOgreLeJoker_: I can walk you through it, it's fairly painless.21:52
fallenangelXase: as in sudo sh ati-driver-installer-11-5-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/natty ? if thats what you mean, then yes.21:52
LeJoker_rationalOgre: Sweet :)21:52
earthmeLonHow do I get rid of this ridiculous new scroll-bar thing in Ubuntu 11.04?21:52
XgatesXase: but as I mentioned it installs an older version of wine21:53
XaseGet wine 1.3 in my opinion and you will need winetricks to install necessary files Xgates21:53
Xase...21:53
rationalOgreLeJoker_: Go to the destination computer21:53
XaseInstall wine first.21:53
LeJoker_rationalOgre: Done21:53
Xgatesok21:53
ZykoticK9_earthmeLon, you could log in with "Classic" mode to use Gnome2 instead of Unity?21:53
XgatesXase: but wine tricks won't then over write 1.3 with 1.2?21:53
earthmeLonZykoticK9_, I am using Classic mode.21:53
Xasefallenangel: well you have 64bit and I have 32bit so it's good to know the problem isn't architecture related.21:53
rationalOgreLeJoker_: Ok, now open a terminal and type this in "sudo apt-get install openssh-server"21:53
rationalOgrewithout the quotes21:54
XaseNo Xgates as it just needs a wine dependency, and wine1.3 also satisfies the wine dependency requirement of winetricks21:54
Xgatesok21:54
ZykoticK9_earthmeLon, "scroll-bar" sorry, my eyes and brain didn't match up there.21:54
LeJoker_rationalOgre: Installing21:54
XaseI'm using winetricks with wine 1.3 here.21:54
rationalOgreLeJoker_: kk.21:54
XgatesXase: so when I go to install MS for the first time use Winetricks to do the install?21:54
Xasefallenangel: does the package from ATI do anything?21:54
rationalOgreMeantime, on the sending computer, open a terminal and type "sudo apt-get install openssh-client"21:54
LeJoker_rationalOgre: Done.21:54
XaseXgates: yes.21:55
XgatesXase: ok cool thanks21:55
Xgatesand thanks klown21:55
earthmeLonAlso, How do I prevent windows from trying to full screen when I bring them to the top of my screen.  What the heck is going on here, guys?  lol  (Using Classic mode, which isn't acting very classic or classy)21:55
XaseXgates: why won't the user use OpenOffice/LibreOffice/Lotus Symphony?21:55
XaseI never understood people's hardcore obsession with thinking -THEY NEED- MS office...21:55
rationalOgreLeJoker_: It may say that the openssh-client is already installed (and/or at the latest version) if so, that's fine.21:56
Guest85742test21:56
LeJoker_rationalOgre: Nah it installed without a hitch.21:56
rationalOgreLeJoker_: Now, back to the destination computer.21:56

XaseGo for it fallenangel21:56
rationalOgreLeJoker_: what text editor are you best with? Nano? Gedit? VIM?21:56
XgatesXase: Libre is of course installed in Natty but when I look at the docs they created in MS in XP some of them are off centered with text, etc... so just to keep the person happy as long as Word will run ok, then I'll install it to show them they can still use it21:56
LeJoker_rationalOgre: nano or gedit I suppose21:56
rationalOgreLeJoker_: Ok21:57
rwwbrik: Sounds like xorg is crashing. Try the X.org log in /var/log/ and .xsession-errors in your home folder.21:57

bradlandchanges i make in "Network Connections" don't appear to have any effect21:58

rationalOgreLeJoker_: Then look for the line that says #Protocol <something something> change it to say Protocol 222:00

LeJoker_ZykoticK9_: Maybe long enough that I might just suck it up and use my USB drive haha22:20

LeJoker_I was getting 90kbps22:20
rationalOgreLeJoker_: With wifi, assuming wireless G on both, probably about an hour or so22:20
rationalOgreIf they both have good, stable connections22:20
tomreyndevan: what are you trying to accomplish?22:20
LeJoker_rationalOgre: Way longer than that. The first file was hitting half an hour22:20
devantomreyn: im trying to make a recovery usb stick22:20
Maylowflowbee, the only hardware I've got some problems is the nvidia card and the wireless, which works, but could not manage to make it use channels 12 and 1322:20
PsydollI would like to know if i set up a vpn in linux and then boot into window if the settings i made in linux would affect me in windows?22:20
LeJoker_I think I'm going to let ssh do some of it, but I'm going to use the USB for most...22:21
rationalOgreLeJoker_: You may have bad connections, if they are both laptops move them close to the wifi router22:21
juliedevan, maybe I miss understood22:21
LeJoker_But now I also know how to ssh into a computer ^_^22:21
Maylowflowbee, and the nvidia driver has some incompatibilities with xrandr, the utility to manage screen resolutions etc22:21
LeJoker_rationalOgre: Nah one is a desktop22:21
tomreyndevan: okay. i'll explain in a minute. why do you want to make a recovery usb stick?22:21
rationalOgreLeJoker_: Well, actually all you did was SCP a directory.22:21
Maylowflowbee, it still works, but I cannot set manually custom resolution for the different video outputs22:22
pfifoPsydoll, no, not unless your configuring a seprate device22:22
LeJoker_rationalOgre: gah.22:22
LeJoker_:P22:22
Xasefallenangel: PM Me22:22
rationalOgreIf you actually want to play around with SSH then just run "ssh -P 2222 username@ipaddress22:22
Maylowflowbee, I guess it's a nvidia driver problem22:22
devantomreyn: in case I want to change the hard drive, or something bad happens22:22
tomreyndevan: ok, which ubuntu version are you on?22:22
devantomreyn: 11.0422:22
rationalOgresorry, its -p not -P22:23
LeJoker_I really should get a SATA to USB adaptor... That'd make my life so much easier...22:23
LeJoker_Or an HDD Enclosure22:23
pfifoLeJoker_, ... and slower22:23
rationalOgreLeJoker_: They are cheap.22:23
tomreyndevan: okay so you have unity?22:23
LeJoker_pfifo: I mean so I can use my HDD as a temporary external drive.22:24
LeJoker_not for general use22:24
devantomreyn: yes22:24
pfifoLeJoker_, you knoe they make esata cards and enclosures right?22:24
tomreyndevan: okay open he unity menu where you can type + search, and type "usb-creator-gtk"22:24
rationalOgreLeJoker_: The reason you wouldn't want to scp as root is that the files would all come across with root:root ownership22:24
LeJoker_pfifo: That's why I said... < LeJoker_> Or an HDD Enclosure22:25
devantomreyn: ok22:25
LeJoker_rationalOgre: Aaaaah. Makes sense.22:25
rationalOgreLeJoker_: Which would mean all kinds of fun chowning them22:25
tomreyndevan: do you have an ISO image of ubuntu there?22:25
rationalOgreThis way they will have ownership of the user you logged in as.22:25
devantomreyn: i have the startup creator22:25
LeJoker_rationalOgre: I'd pay a day-laborer to do that if I were that dumb. Hahaha22:25

Psydollpfifo: what about the network manager pptp plug in would that installation and configuration of it affect my windows?22:25
pfifoPsydoll, no22:26
ikoniaPsydoll: anything you do in Linux will not change anything in windows22:26
tomreyndevan: you mean you just started this application, right?22:26
ikoniathey are totally seperate systems22:26
devantomreyn: yes22:26
Psydollikonia: thats not true i turned off wifi in linux and it turned it off in windows aswell, but i guess that was because the wifi was a "device"22:26
jribflowbee: not an ubuntu question.  Try ##hardware22:26
Psydollpfifo: thank you very much22:26
netspyikonia does skype have issues in natty?22:26
ikoniaPsydoll: they are totally isolated systems, they do not change each others state22:27
tomreyndevan: what i wanted to ask: do you have an image file on your hard disk or a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM for installing ubuntu 11.04?22:27
LeJoker_netspy: It has a couple memory leaks, extended usage will slow everything down22:27
ikonianetspy: not that I'm aware of, have you looked on launchpad.net for any known issues/bugs ?22:27
pfifoPsydoll, using the example you just gave, nothing changed in linux, and what ikonia said holds true ;)22:27
rationalOgreLeJoker_: It's not terrible sudo chown -R user:group . (while cd'd to the directory you wish to loop through)22:27
Psydollikonia: i swtiched off the wifi in ubuntu and i logged into windows only to find the wifi device there switched off also22:27
rationalOgreBut ownership problems can sometimes be tricky to debug.22:27
HoussemHell22:28
HoussemHello22:28
ikoniaPsydoll: that is nothing to do with the OS22:28
devantomreyn: i think i have a cd to install it22:28
LeJoker_rationalOgre: Heh, well I'm a terminal newb. I'd end up doing it to each file before someone told me I could to it to a directory.22:28
tomreyndevan: related question: how did you install ubuntu 11.04?22:28
rationalOgreEspecially if you have one file hidden deep in a directory structure that has improper ownership.22:28
HoussemI have a problem to share my internet connection with my smartphone !22:28
devantomreyn: i installed it with i live cd22:28
Houssemwhen I create a wifi (adhoc) I can't find it with my phone22:28
LeJoker_Alright, guys. I gotta reboot, so Thanks for your help! Especially rationalOgre :)22:28
LeJoker_<3 you all22:28
julieikonia, I actually think Psydoll's question is relevant as I've faced this issue before and it is OS related22:29
ikoniajulie: I didn't say it wasn't a relevant question, I'm stating that nothing you change in ubuntu will change in the windows OS, I'm answering the relevant question22:29
tomreyndevan: okay, then insert this live cd into the cd-rom drive.22:29
julieikonia, it does :)22:29
rationalOgreHoussem: is your phone set up in AdHoc mode?22:29
devantomreyn: ok, let me get it22:29
ikoniajulie: no, it doesn't.22:29
HoussemrationalOgre : yes22:29
devantomreyn: got it22:30
julieikonia, I'm just mentionning I've faced the same type of problem before, even though I understand both OSes to be indepedant22:30
rationalOgreHoussem: and it's using the same SSID and channel number as the desktop?22:30
julieikonia, Psydoll: when I encountered a similar issue, it was a problem with the driver22:30
ikoniajulie: yes, I appreciate what you've said, but as I said to Psydoll that is nothing to do with the OS - if you disable hardware, that's a physical change, nothing to do with the OS22:30
tomreyndevan: okay some window might pop up when you insert the disk. you can close this22:30
lapagawonder if using gparted to format a win install will do something to the other os22:30
ikoniajulie: the linux and windows operating systems do not interact in anyway, so will not effect the "drivers"22:31
devantomreyn: it said it was un able to mount22:31
LekeFlyHello im trying to install ubuntu but i get kernel_tread_helper+0x6 what to do?22:31
LekeFlyAnd alot of error messages before it seems22:31
HoussemrationalOgre : ahaa I think that u r right ! just 5mn to test something :)22:31
quesoIf I add a ppa that has a package I need, but also includes packages that I don't need, and some of those packages that I don't need have the same name as an ubuntu-supported package that I need, how do I get the ubuntu-supported package?   aptitude keeps telling me that the package is from an untrusted source, so it's obviously defaulting to the ppa source.22:31
pfifoLekeFly, how are you installing?22:32
julieikonia, I am not trying to argue and I really know what you're trying to explain and am full aware of how an OS works, but I've had a wireless driver issue on Linux that caused issues in Windows...  after updating it the problem was resolved22:32
tomreyndevan: okay, just ignore this22:32
devantomreyn: did that22:32
ikoniajulie: you are incorrect22:32
ikoniajulie: that is fact22:32
julieikonia, sure sure sure22:32
tomreyndevan: does it show another window asking whether you want to upgrade? if so, cancel.22:32
devantomreyn: no22:32
tomreyndevan: okay, now back to the start media creator window22:33
devantomreyn: ok22:33
LekeFlypfifo: CD..22:33
tomreyndevan: you should be able to select this cdrom now in the upper part of the window22:33
pfifoLekeFly, what version?22:33
rationalOgreikonia: Sorry, you are incorrect. Some drivers utilize firmware and when, for example, the command to shut down is given, that is saved in the firmware of the wireless card.22:33
LekeFlypfifo: 11.0422:33
tomreyndevan: in fact it should already show up there22:33
juliethank you rationalOgre22:33
pfifoLekeFly, 32 or 64 bit?22:34
ikoniarationalOgre: they do not share firmware,22:34
LekeFlypfifo: 3222:34
rationalOgreikonia: I've seen it happen plenty of times.22:34
ikonianope22:34
pfifoLekeFly, how far into the install did you get?22:34
devantomreyn: got it, so open up the cd22:34
rationalOgreikonia: Then you are free to believe such.22:34
julieikonia, why do you argue with 2 experts stating facts?22:34
ikoniarationalOgre: changing the firmware is a hardware state change, not an OS22:34
ikoniajulie: are you an expert ?22:34

sudokillikonia explain the bug with realtek 8168 cards on linux that uses the 8169 driver by default. it completely kills the card until you reset the cmos22:35
ikoniajulie: then why are you comparing a hardware state change to an OS issue22:35
pfifoLekeFly, is this on a seprate computer or did you reboot to come on IRC?22:35
netspyhardware change is different from software change22:35
ikoniasudokill: because it changes the hardware status22:35
ikonianot the OS22:35
julieikonia, forget it, you don't want to undertand22:35
LekeFlypfifo: Seperate22:35
ikoniajulie: I understand quite clearlyh22:35
sudokillit kills the card nomatter what os u boot into22:35
devantomreyn: the cd is selected on the desktop22:35
ikoniasudokill: yes, as it changes the HARDWARE status22:35
ikoniasudokill: nothing to do with the OS22:35
pfifoLekeFly, press f4 or f2 or esc to get rid of the splash22:35
LekeFlypfifo: now or on boot?22:36
netspyit kills the adapter but not the os22:36
sudokillthe driver22:36
ikoniasudokill: no22:36
pfifoLekeFly, try now, if its not panicked22:36
tomreyndevan: ok, but does it list the cd-rom in the upper text box on the usb creator window?22:36
ikoniasudokill: the drivers are not shared, it changes the hardware status, that's why reseting the cmos changes the hardware status22:36
LekeFlypfifo: that didnt work.. ill reboot22:36
sudokill i know the drivers arent shared22:36
devantomreyn: the dell recovery thing asks me to choose a base image22:37
ikoniagood22:37
sudokillim just intervening in a convo im not even following22:37
julieikonia, the drivers are obviously not shared and it does in fact affect the hardware status, but a bad driver can have a bad effect on the hardware status22:37
pfifoLekeFly, yea, get rid of the splash while its responsive22:37
ikoniajulie: correct, no argument there22:37
tomreyndevan: what is the "dell recovery thing"? you are running ubuntu 11.04 right now, right?22:37
rationalOgreikonia: and that is all she has been saying from the beginning...22:38
devantomreyn: i am running an application called Dell Recovery, it was in the software center22:38
YankDownUnderjulie, ;) ....arguing on IRC is like running in the Special Olympics - regardless of the win, you're still retarded.22:38

devantomreyn:i think the disk was scratched22:50
amingrirationalOgre: ok, ill try22:50

rationalOgreamingri: You do that with sudo ifconfig eth0 <IP-U-WANT> netmask <SAME-NETMASK-AS-WIN-BOX>22:51

devantomreyn: i think ill just redownload the image22:51
tomreyndevan: sorry i mean "ISO", not "ISOP"22:52

YankDownUnderSmilin, You can also check into Quasar Accounting mate.22:57
nemotnk: depends how many files it has to move22:57
julieHeIsRisen, I think prefixing it with a backslash would work22:57
Smilinok thanks for the many options there.22:57
nemotnk: that could be normal or not22:57
nemotnk: if the drive was mostly defragmented, then it should happen very quickly22:57
julietnk, looks fine22:57
carl__rebonjour22:58
tnknemo: 90 gb of it is used, so im guessing its moving it all?22:58
nemotnk: dunno what the layout was. maybe.22:58
nemotnk: NTFS partition?22:58
tnknemo: yes22:58
HeIsRisenNo that doesn't work julie22:58
nemotnk: yeah, if possible, defrag in windows first22:58

NvrBstHello.  Question if I may.  I'm trying to follow a tutorial which is telling me to use Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty).  I installed that version, and it is telling me to "apt-get update" / "apt-get install" some stuff, but, it is failing.  Is this because 9.04 is too old?  Is there a way to fix this for my 9.04 install?23:14
pfifoLekeFly, boot with 'nomodeset' on the kernel line23:14
NvrBstExample error message is: Failed to fetch http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/r/readline5/libreadline5-dev_5.2-4_i386.deb 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.88.40 80]23:14

nemoVexenon: what's your version?23:16
tripelbCan anyone tell me what this last 10.04 update is all about. I have to reboot because of it. I know that means it's a kernel update. I'm curious about what it is.23:16
Vexenonnemo: Latest version.23:16
nemoVexenon: lemme guess - intel HD card?23:16
nemoVexenon: uh... the version of your laptop23:16
nemoVexenon: the model #23:16

nemoVexenon: laptop model plz, and a pastebin of lspci23:17

NictraSaviosIn the intrest of sharing information, I would like to know if ubuntu has a bug report for a KMS issue, where, upon boot, it gives error code 2 from EIR to one of the module processes.

pfifoNictraSavios, check over at launchpad.net23:20
NictraSaviosAnyway, If anyone would Like to put it on the bug report, Its to add "options drm_kms_helper poll=0" to /etc/modprobe.conf , I have no time to do it right now.23:20

tripelbnemo, one big problem is no really understanding the issue. Then you dont phrase your question well. This happened about protecting my computer when others use my wireless. I still dont know what to do. The advice was so over the map that I decided I dont even know the issue clearly.23:24
Maylowdid anyone had a problem with virtualbox/ubuntu host/xp guest - file operations in shared folders sometimes fail?23:24
tripelbOK. annoyingly there is NO IRC on the 10.04 liveCD. nemo23:24
nemotripelb: ah. open wireless. yeah, I do that too, but I keep the open network completely separate from my internal one23:24
nemotripelb: I'm not that trusting23:24
nemotripelb: um. you can 1) install from repositories 2) use the firefox chatzilla addon (that's a quick install) 3) use the freenode web client23:25
pfifotripelb, irssi should be there23:25
tripelbnemo what does "completely separate" mean?23:25
nemotripelb: completely different subnet off my router.23:25
nemotripelb: also bandwidth limited23:25
nemono traffic flows between the two23:25
tripelboh right, chatzilla would be good nemo. the thing is that it has to install in ram, right?23:25
nemotripelb: yep - unless you are using a flash drive of course23:25

jsnmtthI'm having problems with apache/php not reporting errors on 10.10 .23:26
langellightblueHi every one23:26
tripelbnemo, lets talk one thing at a time. 1. what is this update (or not) 2. partioning. 3. protecting wireless (leave till later) -- else it's too jumbled.23:26
jsnmtthI'm SURE it is configured right.23:26
ikoniajsnmtth: turn on deugging in the php.ini23:26
langellightbluelove the great welcome on IRC :)23:26
nemotripelb: unclear what you mean by (1)  - anyway, as for (2) - have you used gparted before?23:27
rationalOgretripelb: if you are sure it was a kernel update, then just run "zless /usr/share/doc/linux-image-2.6.32-32-generic/changelog.Debian.gz23:27
tripelbnemo, I could use bootable flash drive but what's unionfs what's persistence what's subnet. yes I want other users to be bandwidth limited. (heh see jumble, laugh at it)23:27
bigbangwhenever I try to watch video on full screen it stuck there23:27
SlimGAny idea why I don't have /dev/disk/by-id on my ubuntu server 10.04 @ xen ? this breaks the grub-pc package23:28
pfifotripelb, you can always log on to the freenode webchat23:28
tripelbrationalOgre, only kernel updates need reboot, right?23:28
jsnmtthI don't have a "debugging value".  I have E_ALL for my errors, along with display_errors=on and log_error=on23:28
nemotripelb: you probably don't care. the important thing is if you do the bootable flash, anything you install or write to it will be remembered23:28
rationalOgretripelb: If you want to know what all was updated recently just cat /var/log/apt/history.log23:28
nemotripelb: so you can customise it w/ apps you want to keep around (like IRC clients)23:28
tripelbpfifo you mean log onto it in a browser. oh yes, I forgot about that.23:28
jsnmtthI have verified with phpinfo() that I'm editing the correct php.ini file.23:28
jsnmtthI'm using fastcgi23:29
tripelbnemo re the usb boot. I didnt knwo that. good idea23:29
tripelbrationalOgre, Oh I'll look at that log.23:29
tripelbTIL "a lot"23:29
rationalOgretripelb: For example, my history.log shows that sysv-rc was changed, which would probably require a reboot.23:29
p_resanyone here running fedora 15 as guest in virtualbox?23:29
nemotripelb: as for wireless security.  your options are kind of limited to your overall technical competence23:29
pfifojsnmtth, does it report errors sometimes and not others?23:29
nemotripelb: if you're not too good w/ setting up networking, you might even want to just get a 2nd wireless router23:30
rationalOgretripelb: Just curious as to why it is important.23:30
jsnmtthIt reported errors ... at least in the logs yesterday23:30
jsnmtthI haven't done an update.23:30
tripelbnemo then a usb boot can be my (mythical in my mind - I'ev asked about how and got FUD) custom liveCD. that can do dvd, IRC, etc23:30
nemotripelb: where the 2nd one plugs into the first, then you setup the subnet normally23:30
nemotripelb: of course, that means paying an extra $40 for it23:30
pfifojsnmtth, you realize prefixing stuff with @ suppresses all warnnings and errors right "@fopen()" for example23:30
p_resanyone here running fedora 15 as guest in virtualbox?23:30
jsnmtthyes23:30
tripelbrationalOgre, It's not important, it's interesting to me. I'm curious.23:31
ikoniap_res: lots of people in #fedora are23:31
jsnmtthI have 10 years of administration and php programming experience23:31
tripelbnemo, IC you use two physical routers.23:31
nemotripelb: as long as your flash drive is large enough, you can install stuff like DVD burning and IRC yes - one caveat is that some computers don't boot off of flash drives where the fat32 partition is too large23:31
rationalOgretripelb: Ah, ok, well /var/log/apt/history.log will tell you what you recently updated23:31
=== n1xNc0d3 is now known as iam
pfifojsnmtth, so your running your own code then or some phpapp?23:31
nemotripelb: but for modern machines, it should usually work even if you created a very large filesystem23:31
=== JimmyJ_ is now known as JimmyJ
rationalOgreand /usr/share/doc/<packagename>/changelog.Debian.gz will tell you the changelog for that package.23:31
tripelbnemo, my computer is a 2004 dell. Is that a modern machine?23:32
bigbangwhenever I try to watch video on full screen it stuck there23:32
nemotripelb: dunno. depends on the dell I 'spose.  and probably more importantly, on the BIOS23:32
jsnmtthMy own code ... I ended up creating an intentional parse error to test that errors are infact not working .... ohh there might be an apache overide in that directory.23:32
nemotripelb: TIAS23:32
tripelbnemo TIAS?23:32
nemotripelb: get a largeish flash drive, use the startup disc creator wizard, and see if you can USB boot with a large read/write area assigned23:32
nemotripelb: Try It and See23:32
jsnmtthNo, no .htaccess issues.23:33
rationalOgrejsnmtth: make sure you have the proper permissions set for where you are logging to.23:33
nemotripelb: if you can't, well, 200 or 300 megs still isn't too bad - you can install quite a lot in there23:33
nemotripelb: and that fits in under the gig limit some old BIOSes require23:33
rationalOgrei.e. that the apache daemon has write access to that directory/file.23:33
nemo(200-300 + CD image)23:33
jsnmtthPermissions are correct23:33
jsnmtthaccess logs are being updated23:33
jsnmtthError logs are complaining about no favicon.ico23:34
nemotripelb: if you don't want to pay for a 2nd router, what you can do depends a lot on the router's capabilities.23:34
pfifojsnmtth, I thought you were refering to on the fly error messages that goto the resulting page23:34
rationalOgrejsnmtth: yeah, that's always annoying but not actually an error.23:34
jsnmtthThose do not work either23:34
nemotripelb: although on my home system, my linux server is my router, I have a cheap $10 switch for physical, and wifi is the locked down separate network.23:35
jsnmtthActually I havn't had a 404 error since 11:3023:35
bigbangwhenever I try to watch video on full screen it stuck there23:35
jsnmtthI'm going to reboot... Thanks for troubleshooting with me guys.23:35
tripelbnemo, lets not talk about protecting my system, just about booting off a usb and partitions. What's tias. -- what did you meanabout 200 or 300 megs? ((I like that you are telling me about the protection but I want to follow one track) like my mind (not)23:35

lekefly_pfifo: http://www.cl.ly/0W3i461g3Q212O39060q this is from regular ubuntu install after the brown screen with icon on the bottom23:36
nemotripelb: If you use the flash drive wizard you'll see it ask you how much space to allocate for saving files23:36
nemotripelb: what matters to old BIOSes is the size of the FAT32 partition linux is on.23:37

Vexenonnemo: You still want this? http://pastebin.com/kVGZqd1u23:37

allowoverridemy question involves ufw only23:39
rationalOgreallowoverride: okiedokie.23:39
allowoverrideshould i just to update-rc.d remove or with that effect sudo ufw in some way23:40
allowoverridelets see if you can assist there23:40
Vexenonnemo: Er, how do I edit it?23:40
tripelbrationalOgre, if it updated the kernel would I find the word "kernel" in the log file?23:40
rationalOgreallowoverride: 11.04? 10.10? 10.04?23:40

allowoverrideim scared of 11.04 at this time ;)23:41
B105Hey, guys, whenever I try to apt-get install I get E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.canonical.com_dists_natty_partner_i18n_Translation-en%5fUS23:41

nemoallowoverride: after a painful upgrade on 2 systems, I stopped - the others are staying on 10.1023:42
nemoallowoverride: I just added the firefox stable PPA so they can have Firefox 423:42
allowoverridei will most likely load it when i have no use for this lappy and get another one23:42
allowoverrideyah, i like 10's best thus far23:42
allowoverridenemo: oh23:42
noisewaterphdI am still on 10.10 everywhere also, hate unity and don't want to deal with getting gnome2 installed23:42
null__Question:  How do I check if my second monitor is being seen by linux/the system?  when booting, i don't have any video output on the 2nd monitor.  usually with other video cards I would see a mirror of the 1st monitor.  xrandr and fglrxinfo and the ATI Catylist panel only show the first monitor, but I think I will need to reinstall ATI Catalyst since it appears broken.23:42
allowoverridegimmie that linnk ;) to ppa23:42
nemonoisewaterphd: 11.04 does have gnome2 by default23:42
rationalOgreI'm on 10.04 on my laptop.23:42
jsnmtthFirefox 4 for 10.10?23:42
rationalOgrewith the FF4 ppa23:42
html_inprogressi want to make a movie/ dvd , in a scrapebook freature way, and i want it to play in all dvd player,,, so how do i go about it?23:42
=== Jeff_ is now known as Guest15977
allowoverrideim 64bit arch by the way23:42
nemonoisewaterphd: but, nonetheless, it does screw up gnome2 in irritating ways even if you boot into classic23:43
allowoverridethat might change things23:43
nemonoisewaterphd: fortunately not serious ways23:43
nemoallowoverride: naw. there is FF4 for 64 bit - all my machines are 64 bit save one23:43
noisewaterphdnull__, I don't recall ubuntu ever mirroring on boot with nvidia or ati. after boot use catalyst to see what displays are detected23:43
allowoverridenemo ppa link?23:43
nemoallowoverride: https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable23:43
nemoallowoverride: available for 10.10 and 10.0423:44
noisewaterphdnemo: that's good to know, I assumed it was not there23:44
null__noisewaterphd: it may have been my Debian that mirrored on boot.  But, my Catalyst is broken due to this issue http://linuxfloat.org/archlinux-fail-link-fglrx-libglxso-please-check-whether-driver-installed-correctly so I will try installing latest version, maybe it's corrected23:44
allowoverridegot it, thanks, deb deb-src23:44
lekefly_pfifo: im not in the select language menu.. Should i just try to install?23:45
nemonoisewaterphd: yeah, you can get a lot of the stuff you need for older releases - like people who come by looking for Hedgewars 0.9.15 for 10.10 - I recommend them the PlayDeb site23:45
allowoverridedo i need debarchiver?23:45
bollullerahello!23:45

Vexenonnemo: Headphone jack now works. Thanks for the assistance.23:46

lekefly_pfifo: Got a black screen23:47
rationalOgreallowoverride: If you remove ufw using update-rc.d then all that means is that UFW will not start on bootup.23:47
pfifolekefly_, might need to give it a bit more time23:47
allowoverriderationalOgre: yes23:47
allowoverrideim trying to decide which to use more,,, sudo server or sudo ufw23:48
rationalOgreallowoverride: You should be able to start it manually if you needed to edit your configuartion.23:48
html_inprogressjulie,  im new to this video stuff, i need to make an iso ?23:48
dayep_whois dayep_23:48
nemoallowoverride: btw. one thing about 10.10 - the intel driver *is* much improved in 11.04 mesa23:48
allowoverridei want it to start at install, but i like the sudo ufw status feature23:48
allowoverridenemo: oh ok23:48
nemoallowoverride: there might be some stability issues if you try out webgl for example (you'd need the override blacklist variable anyway)23:48
rationalOgreallowoverride: Do you  mean bootup instead of install?23:48
allowoverrideim not much knowledgeable about hardware stuff nomenclatures23:48
roothorickare there some hidden UI settings somewhere in unity?23:48
allowoverriderationalOgre: at boot,23:49
allowoverriderationalOgre: here is my issue23:49
allowoverridei work with the ufw often23:49
allowoverrideallow/deny ports23:49
lekefly_pfifo: Hehe.. still black :p23:49
html_inprogressjulie,  so what are you saying?23:49
allowoverridebut.... i wish for it to boot at startup, which it does, but i want to be able to STOP the service,,, if i sudo ufw disable, it stops it at boot up, if i sudo service stop, i have no idea what it does, and always comes back up when i reboot23:50
allowoverriderationalOgre: so.... which is the NEW way, so i can get used to the idea23:50
allowoverridei would think sudo ufw23:50
allowoverrideNOT sudo service, or maybe im totally confused23:50
rationalOgresudo ufw is what you use to access the running daemon23:51
allowoverriderationalOgre: k23:51
pfifolekefly_, did it not do anything at all?23:51
rationalOgreallowoverride: sudo service ufw start/stop/restart would be to do all those things to the daemon.23:51
allowoverridesudo ufw stop also states  sudo ufw disable23:51
allowoverrideFirewall stopped and disabled on system startup23:51
lekefly_pfifo: nope.. i just hit the option "install ubuntu"23:51
allowoverrideexplain that....23:51
allowoverridesudo ufw disable23:52
allowoverrideFirewall stopped and disabled on system startup23:52
pfifolekefly_, reboot and try the command line install option23:52
B105Guys I can't figure out E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.canonical.com_dists_natty_partner_i18n_Translation-en%5fUS when I try to run Synaptic, anybody help?23:52
allowoverridei believe its more invading lol23:52
Jeff__Anyone else getting the E: error when trying to update?23:52
B105I am.23:52
allowoverridesudo ufw disable   yields:   Firewall stopped and disabled on system startup23:52
allowoverridereboot, and try it23:52
allowoverridei have23:53
rationalOgreallowoverride: ok, you understand that UFW is actually not a firewall, correct?23:53
allowoverridecorrect23:53
rationalOgreallowoverride: So what it's doing is disabling the configuration for IPTables23:53
lekefly_pfifo: Expert mode? i cant see any commandline install23:53
rationalOgreallowoverride: so when you reboot, your iptables config is essentially shut off until you do sudo ufw enable again23:53
allowoverridethats another question.... iptables... i try to add rules with iptables and its hella hard to work with sudo iptables23:54
allowoverriderationalOgre: correct23:54
rationalOgreallowoverride: indeed, hence why they made UFW, cause iptables IS hella-hard23:54
juliehtml_inprogress, sorry I was busy...  what program are you using to build your DVD?23:54
allowoverriderationalOgre: i would like it NOT to flush23:54
allowoverriderationalOgre: yes i know, i come from ipfw and pf23:54
roothorickokay, can I just disable the Unity sound panel?23:54
allowoverrideso many firewalls lol23:54
allowoverrideoh oh,, unity... shivers....23:55
rationalOgreallowoverride: heh.23:55
allowoverrideunity sounds so..... hmmm cisco like23:55
html_inprogressjulie,  i dont know thats why im asking,  i hear kdnlive works , but i want i very fancy one and powerful23:55
rationalOgreallowoverride: so you would like what exactly to not flush your iptables?23:55
rationalOgreallowoverride: when you run sudo ufw disable?23:56
allowoverriderebooting23:56
allowoverrideyes and or23:56
allowoverridecorrect23:56
allowoverrideall of it23:56
allowoverrideits confusing23:56
rationalOgreallowoverride: It is.23:56
rationalOgreallowoverride: so, when you issue enable/disable, all ufw is doing is copying a set of rules for iptables to/from iptable's config and executing the iptables commands necessary to enable and/or clear those rules23:57
sulucohmunhey, I could use some help, I23:58
rationalOgreallowoverride: the reason ufw runs as a daemon is to allow for things like sudo ufw stat23:58
sulucohmunhow do i apply a git patch like this one : https://github.com/Caccc/Gnome-shell-extension-Mediasplayers/issues/223:58
=== rainer_ is now known as rajo
allowoverriderationalOgre: k23:58
allowoverridehowto save the rules so it sticks at boot up23:58
allowoverridesudo ufw add so forth,,,23:58
rationalOgreallowoverride: however, if you got your iptables set the way you like them, you could essentially disable ufw from booting and iptables will merrily boot with the rules in place.23:58
allowoverrideis there a iptables-save in sudo ufw?23:59
allowoverrideic23:59
allowoverrideso like rc.local stuff23:59
sulucohmun@#ubuntu: how can I apply a git patch like this one: https://github.com/Caccc/Gnome-shell-extension-Mediasplayers/issues/2  it uses diff? im not too familiar with git23:59
rationalOgreallowoverride: That is my understanding of it, I could be wrong.23:59
allowoverridebrb thanks, ill be back in 40 mins. we will continue.. thanks tillt then...23:59
