| whyameye | I've been trying to share an internet connection with between 2 computers for an hour now. I've done this many times before but today I can't get the 2nd computer to find domain names. The first (host?) computer is running natty and the second is lucid. | 01:01 |
| bazhang | demonek, the m4a list? | 01:01 |

| ubottu | Here I am, brain the size of a planet and they ask me to respond to factoid requests. Call that job satisfaction? Because I don't. | 01:01 |
| demonek | baz: nah basically I have my "Favorites" and I want to just copy those mp3's over to my work laptop via a thumb drive | 01:01 |
| bazhang | demonek, sync your favorites from one banshee to another? | 01:02 |
| demonek | in Windows I could just "sync" that playlist with my thumb drive and it would accomplish this | 01:02 |
| demonek | baz: yeah, but with the actual mp3's going with it not just the .m3u | 01:02 |
| bazhang | demonek, try tab complete its baz<tab> , worth a shot certainly never tried it | 01:03 |
| altsupwin | any? | 01:03 |
| bazhang | altsupwin, monitor driver? | 01:03 |
| qin | demonek: Is .m3u just list of files with location? | 01:03 |
| demonek | bazhang, yeah that's it thanks :) | 01:03 |
| whyameye | !firestarter | 01:03 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Gufw (GNOME) and Guarddog (KDE Lucid and Maverick) also exist. | 01:03 |

| ubottu | If you want to share the internet connection of your Ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing | 01:03 |
| demonek | qin, yeah it's just the playlist info | 01:04 |
| demonek | so exporting that does me no good because it doesn't send the actual mp3's also | 01:04 |
| altsupwin | bazhang, no is a calibration monitor | 01:04 |
| bazhang | altsupwin, try the ubuntu tools first | 01:04 |
| demonek | basically I'm trying to sync a specific playlist and files to my thumb drive | 01:04 |
| altsupwin | sorry what tool? | 01:05 |
| bazhang | altsupwin, what exactly do you need to "calibrate" | 01:05 |
| altsupwin | a monitor | 01:05 |
| genii-around | so colour profiles or so? | 01:06 |
| qin | demonek: you can (more less): cat FILE | while read line; do cp -v $line /tumb/location; done; | 01:06 |
| bazhang | altsupwin, yes, what exactly do you need to calibrate in that monitor | 01:06 |
| altsupwin | yes | 01:06 |
| Corey | qin: rsync does that natively. | 01:06 |

| qin | chaddy: tmux, screen, byobu (screen mod). tmux is also worth attention. | 01:15 |
| joshlegs | hey i can get the "places" off the panel right? and move it just to the desktop? | 01:15 |

| bazhang | leader, zero | 01:16 |

| theborger | anyone give me some pointers on using ubuntu as a media center? | 01:18 |
| genii-around | !mythbuntu | 01:18 |
| ubottu | Mythbuntu is an Ubuntu derivative centered upon setting up a standalone MythTV system. See: http://www.mythbuntu.org for more information | 01:18 |
| chaddy | well xbmc is worth a google, theborger, as is mythtv | 01:18 |
| theborger | i am thinking getting a Geforce GT220, 4gb of ram. Using xbmc for the interface | 01:18 |
| chaddy | don't need as much as that, I daresay | 01:19 |
| theborger | caddy, all of the mce remotes work correct? | 01:19 |
| chaddy | afraid I don't know about that, theborger | 01:19 |
| theborger | chaddy, just use the newest ver of ubuntu? | 01:20 |
| chaddy | probably LTS for a media server, reliability is better | 01:20 |
| chaddy | much more stable | 01:20 |
| ActionParsnip | chaddy: Sounds great I run xbmc on a 10th the system of that. If you use Android there is a remote control on the phone :) | 01:20 |
| === Superman is now known as Guest82171 | ||
| ActionParsnip | chaddy: Lucid desktop support dies at the same time Natty does | 01:21 |
| theborger | chaddy, 10.04? | 01:21 |
| chaddy | yes | 01:21 |
| chaddy | with a view to upgrading to the next LTS when it appears | 01:21 |
| joshlegs | zomg | 01:22 |
| theborger | i need transmission and sabnzb both of those work on ubuntu correct? | 01:22 |
| chaddy | ActionParsnip: I couldn't trust Natty that far, to be honest my late experience of that | 01:22 |
| joshlegs | ubuntu officially made it to my "favorite os" list | 01:22 |
| chaddy | has been poor | 01:22 |
| theborger | and does the lte have a desktop? | 01:22 |
| chaddy | lts yes | 01:22 |
| theborger | chaddy, picked up a dell 740 | 01:22 |
| chaddy | not the server edition, though, that' s just cli | 01:23 |
| joshlegs | can somebody tell me how to get that cubey thing where you switch workspaces? | 01:23 |
| joshlegs | i can't figure it out | 01:23 |
| bazhang | !ccsm | joshlegs | 01:23 |
| ubottu | joshlegs: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz | 01:23 |
| chaddy | you want classic ubuntu at the login for that, I believe | 01:23 |
| chaddy | then ccsm from there | 01:23 |
| theborger | chaddy, i picked up a dell 745 core 2 duo 1.8 4gb of ram | 01:23 |
| ActionParsnip | chaddy: then Lucid will last longer :) | 01:24 |
| joshlegs | thanks bazhang. i have it on here, but i dont know if im enabling the cubey thing right | 01:24 |
| theborger | chaddy, then i am going to add the geforce gt220 and 2 more gb of ram | 01:24 |
| chaddy | lovely, that'll run myth or xbmc in a snooze | 01:24 |
| theborger | chaddy that was for me? | 01:25 |
| chaddy | yes ;) | 01:25 |
| ActionParsnip | chaddy: there is xbmc live :) | 01:25 |
| chaddy | ActionParsnip: does LTS server still have longer support if you apt-get ubuntu-desktop? | 01:25 |
| joshlegs | ohh yeah i remember now bazhang. when i try to enable the cube gearbox or 3d windows on there, i can't even switch workstations | 01:25 |
| theborger | chaddy, so just download ubuntu 10.04lts? that comes with X correct? and transmission and SABnzbd both jsut apt-get correct? | 01:26 |
| ActionParsnip | chaddy: no, because it is then a desktop OS | 01:26 |
| chaddy | looks good, theborger | 01:26 |
| chaddy | fair enough, should have anticipated that they would have anticipated me | 01:27 |
| theborger | chaddy, last ? http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ i want the Desktop CD correct? | 01:28 |
| chaddy | I'd go with the amd64 for a core 2 duo | 01:30 |
| chaddy | compatible with intel 64 bit, too | 01:30 |
| theborger | chaddy really run 64bit? | 01:30 |
| chaddy | but desktop, yes | 01:30 |
| theborger | x86 will work just as good no? | 01:31 |
| cyperbg | Anyone know how can I disable my cursor going off screen? | 01:31 |
| === pain is now known as NetworkSoldier | ||
| chaddy | check with others, here, theborger, I haven't found any bother with the 64bit | 01:31 |
| chaddy | nor really with x86, to be fair, ymmv | 01:31 |

| lduros | hi, I've set up postfix on my server along with dovecot. I'm able to get my emails using thunderbird (imap). However, I can't send messages with smtp and I can't figure out why. in the postfix/main.cf I can see smtpd_use_tls -- does this mean I have to have some kind of key on my local machine with thunderbird? | 02:09 |
| eusr | and is not distro specific program | 02:09 |
| eusr | or problem | 02:09 |
| szal | eusr: doesn't matter how you screw your Mint, Mint is not Ubuntu | 02:09 |

| soreau | eusr: To try and debug a segfaulting program, you first need binaries with debugging symbols (often found in -dbg packages in ubuntu) and gdb (the GNU DeBugger) and run the program with it like this 'gdb --args program-that-is-segfaulting' then type 'run' and then 'continue' | 02:11 |

| KM0201 | could be wrong though | 02:16 |
| pooltable | km0201 yes i have the 32 bit | 02:16 |
| lduros | tonyyarusso: well it says: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from ... <dest_email>: Relay access denid; from=<myemail> to=<dest_email> | 02:16 |

| lduros | tonyyarusso: that's gmail | 02:18 |
| tonyyarusso | lduros: can you send to another address? | 02:18 |
| lduros | ok | 02:18 |
| tonyyarusso | lduros: GMail is pretty strict. You'll need to set up all of your SPF stuff, for one. | 02:18 |
| ActionParsnip | tylerCanada: did you install the guest editions? | 02:19 |
| pooltable | km0201 yes vmware cost well there a fre one but i do not like it | 02:19 |
| tylerCanada | ActionParsnip: yeah, I even tried the 3D support drivers | 02:19 |
| KM0201 | pooltable: well, the "non-free".. doesn't cost money... it's just not open source (ie, can't modify the source code) | 02:19 |
| ActionParsnip | tylerCanada: I'd ask in #vbox too. Make sure you give Win7 enough RAMs :) | 02:19 |
| gisli | hey guys...does anyone know how to "anchor" programs to a workspace? For example if I open chromium it will open in workspace 3 and if I open gvim it will open in workspace 2? | 02:19 |
| lduros | tonyyarusso: maybe it's the wrong message, it's the wrong time. on thunderbird when I try I get: The message could not be sent because connecting to SMTP server lduros.net failed | 02:19 |
| ActionParsnip | gisli: compiz can do that, there is also devilspie which can be configured with gdevilspie from googlecode | 02:20 |
| theborger | ActionParsnip you have a media center pc? | 02:21 |
| lduros | tonyyarusso: and if I try to send the message from my server (the email server with postfix) using mutt through ssh, it works | 02:21 |
| gisli | okay thanks...I'll try that. Actually I'm trying to get rid of compiz since I don't need it but I'll try devilspie | 02:21 |
| soreau | gisli: Yes, ccsm>Place Windows plugin if you're running compiz | 02:21 |

| ActionParsnip | Shak: sure are | 02:24 |
| gisli | compiz is a nice program I'll agree on that, but I'm more of a fan of tiling WM's so Gnome without compiz and just many workspaces is as close as I can get without losing the nice gnome features. I'm using the old gnome btw | 02:24 |
| lduros | tonyyarusso: nothing at all, used tail -f and cleared my screen. mail.log outputs nothing. So I'm thinking it's just the fact I can't connect to it | 02:25 |
| Shak | alright when i try to install my raid array isnt even show in the select drive box | 02:25 |
| oscar_ | good evening | 02:25 |

| KM0201 | ? | 02:40 |
| accel | is there a way to tell a ubuntu system: keep everything in RAM? (and build a minimal distro on that); in particular this is a server machine -- my goal is just to have it silent .. i.e. no hard disk spinning whatsoever | 02:40 |
| brahmana | In the man-page of start-stop-daemon, the first example uses a "--daemon" option, but there is not documentation about that. | 02:40 |
| brahmana | What does that option do? | 02:40 |
| Mioze7Ae | KM0201: Like the record is set to the wrong speed. | 02:41 |
| szal | accel: how much RAM do you want to spend on that? 16 GB? 32 GB? | 02:41 |
| accel | 32 GB is fine | 02:41 |
| accel | it's also a server machine; so no need for X / gnome / kde | 02:41 |
| accel | it just needs to run ssh + git + pdftex | 02:42 |
| accel | and that's it | 02:42 |
| accel | no need for gcc/g++ either | 02:42 |
| Mioze7Ae | Like a song that should play in 3 min is slowed down and takes 6 min. | 02:42 |
| brewster | accel: have you tried ssd's | 02:42 |
| brewster | i hear they don't make noise | 02:42 |
| gisli | qin: actually I have maximize toggle set to ctrl+m and minimize to alt+m but I wanted to do this for my mother in law which is used to doing it in W7 (formatted her computer yesterday and installed ubuntu) and she was asking about that function... | 02:42 |
| accel | yeah; I have; but since my system is so small | 02:42 |
| accel | i feel like I can stick it all in RAM | 02:42 |
| qin | gisli: Well, in compiz for certain you can set reaction to title-bar doubleclick, not sure is there more. | 02:43 |
| daftykins | accel: you can just run a RAM drive as the OS, but it'd have to load from something still. maybe flash drive | 02:44 |
| daftykins | but SSDs are lovely ^_^ | 02:44 |
| accel | daftykins: yeah, it's the laoding/saving part that is icky | 02:44 |
| accel | i know that linux uses spare memory to cache shit in memory | 02:44 |
| Jordan_U | accel: Generally that type of thing is only done with LiveCD/USB systems which aren't great as server setups as security upgrades can be a problem. | 02:44 |
| accel | is there a way to tell the kernel "cache my entire FS?" | 02:44 |
| accel | Jordan_U: lack of security is okay; as long as there's no remotely executable holes in ssh/iptables | 02:45 |
| Guest26821 | brewster I installed again steam and it says "failed to poke open firewallsteam client service install completed." | 02:45 |

| gisli | qin: yeah I know about that...but the thing is that this function is default on a fresh 10.10 and 11.04 install but it seems like it isn't on 10.04 and she was asking me for that function cause she is so used to it | 02:46 |

| gisli | maybe I can find it somewhere in compiz. That is if the computer supports extra visual effects | 02:47 |
| mrdeb | gisli: what do u need | 02:47 |
| Jordan_U | accel: If you boot an Ubuntu LiveCD/USB (or setup a live system on an internal HD via various methods) you can just pass the "toram" kernel parameter. Obviously any files you wanted to change and be persistant would need to be on a partition somewhere rather than just in RAM. | 02:48 |
| Guest26821 | i just updated ultimate edition 2.5, I am not sure if i have it on or not | 02:48 |

| intx | is there a partimage package that runs on ubuntu amd64? | 02:54 |
| intx | or something equivalent? | 02:54 |
| dr_willis | I thought it existed on 64bit | 02:55 |
| dr_willis | !info partimage | 02:56 |
| ubottu | partimage (source: partimage): backup partitions into a compressed image file. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.8-1 (natty), package size 276 kB, installed size 968 kB | 02:56 |
| dr_willis | Nomrally the !info would say if its 64 or 32bit only. | 02:56 |
| dr_willis | !info zsnes | 02:56 |
| ubottu | zsnes (source: zsnes): Emulator of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.510-2.2ubuntu4 (natty), package size 890 kB, installed size 4084 kB (Only available for i386 amd64) | 02:56 |
| szal | dr_willis: according to my pkg cache it doesn't exist for 64bit | 02:56 |
| dr_willis | Im on my only 32bit box right now. so cant doubl3 check | 02:57 |
| dr_willis | bbl | 02:57 |
| ActionParsnip | dr_willis: what are you after? I got a 64bit box | 02:57 |
| KM0201 | from looking at his !, i'm guessing partimage. | 02:58 |
| ActionParsnip | seems to only be 32bit http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/partimage | 02:59 |
| KM0201 | yup. | 03:00 |
| ActionParsnip | strange | 03:00 |
| w30 | w30 has Gparted on his x86_64 | 03:01 |
| szal | w30: we're not talking about Gparted ;) | 03:02 |
| w30 | szal, what's this partimage you are referring to? | 03:04 |
| intx | it lets you make an image of a partition | 03:04 |
| om4rezz | whois om4rezz | 03:05 |
| bdp | i got a question. im sort of new to using a linux based os. or at least command wise. but i installed xorg server on a palm pre. and then added an image of debian to it mounted and all works fine, running lxde since it has limited memory and such, but question is dbus wont configure i have tried every way i know how to configure it, it is communicating with hal but when ever any window manager tries to use it, it will overflow with unable t | 03:05 |
| bdp | o connect errors and unable to bind errors. so can't i just remove dbus and run without it, i guess asking if removed what will it effect and can the system run without it? | 03:05 |
| w30 | intx, ahhh, thanks | 03:05 |
| szal | bdp: this is #ubuntu, not #debian | 03:05 |
| soreau | bdp: you need dbus. it's how some processes talk to each other | 03:06 |
| ActionParsnip | bdp: the guys in #debian will help as you are using debian | 03:06 |
| bdp | ight, i was just asking. wasn't entirely sure to if it was needed for it. | 03:06 |
| bdp | ight, figured id ask if anyone would know was all. only here since it dropped me right into here auto(1st time run) gotta love it. | 03:07 |
| Mioze7Ae | How do I set the audio output sampling rate in 11.04? | 03:08 |
| veek | output sampling? | 03:09 |
| KM0201 | the guys in #debian help people?..lol.. obviously someone thats never been there.. :) | 03:09 |
| szal | KM0201: that's a different story ;) | 03:09 |
| KM0201 | szal: :) | 03:09 |
| Mioze7Ae | I assume it's the output sampling. The sound is coming out too slow. | 03:10 |
| veek | cpu? | 03:10 |
| MadGirl | cpu is rarely the limiting factor in the overall performance of a system | 03:10 |
| intx | :( no one knows of an alternative to partimage on ubuntu amd64? | 03:10 |
| Mioze7Ae | Veek: Are you asking what is my CPU? It's dual Opteron 248 | 03:11 |
| szal | Jordan_U: are private bots allowed in this channel? | 03:11 |
| morth | i just set my terminal as a background with eterm 0.9.5, is there a way i can make it so there isn't a tab on the bottom of my screen? | 03:12 |
| veek | Mioze7Ae: vmstat and check the cpu usage | 03:12 |
| Sorinan | i'm recdiving a" incompatible license" error on grub after doing a clean instalation of natty. what the hell is this license? | 03:12 |
| veek | Mioze7Ae: but as MG said.. unlikely.. | 03:12 |
| Jordan_U | szal: In general, no. If you have one that will be completely silent then ask in #ubuntu-ops and it may be allowed. | 03:12 |
| szal | Jordan_U: not me; see above (MadGirl) | 03:13 |
| veek | what's with the join/leaves? netsplit? | 03:14 |
| Jordan_U | veek: Just a high traffic channel. | 03:14 |
| szal | TrD: no need to log in twice | 03:15 |
| Mioze7Ae | VeeK: I don't think it's a load issue. I'm at 88% idle. I found a bunch of people talking about this problem for Edgy, but they all resolved it by updating packages and it had been working in Lucid... | 03:15 |
| TrD | sorry szal | 03:15 |
| noisewaterphd | veek your client should be able to supress join/part messages | 03:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Sorinan: is it before or after you select the kernel? | 03:16 |
| abstrusenick | why do i have to use /bin/sh -l -c to issue command from monit? | 03:16 |
| ActionParsnip | veek: which client? do you use? | 03:16 |
| Sorinan | it's before, it doesn't load the menu | 03:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Sorinan: I'd boot to live cd and reinstate grub there | 03:16 |
| Jordan_U | szal: I don't see anything to suggest that MadGirl is a bot. If you have some reason to believe they are please explain in #ubuntu-ops. | 03:17 |
| veek | irssi, yeah but i like to see ips. it's not important - just curious since i didn't notice it elsewhere | 03:17 |
| Sorinan | what grub is default, 1 or 2? | 03:17 |
| Nobgul-bnc | 2 now i though | 03:17 |
| veek | Mioze7Ae: my only other idea would be to strace.. (or update) | 03:17 |
| Sorinan | ok, lemme try it | 03:18 |
| Jordan_U | Sorinan: That error message means that you have a different version of grub in the mbr+embedded area than in /boot/grub/. Do you have more than one hard drive? | 03:18 |

| IdleOne | xpu? | 03:18 |

| Sorinan | yes, 3 HDs, it;s a | 03:19 |

| osti401 | i installed the driver of ati video card, then when i open tmnations forevere it says that i dont have any video card. What do i need to do to fix this problem? | 03:21 |
| Jordan_U | Sorinan: Try changing the boot order in your BIOS, or as ActionParsnip suggested re-install grub from a LiveCD (making sure that you install it to the drive you're BIOS is booting from, or to all drives). | 03:23 |

| ghostnik11 | hi, i am trying to compile brasero 3.0.0 and when i run ./configure i get this error: glib-compile-schemas | 03:27 |
| Cuchulainn | hi all...off topic for sure....killed my iphone, gonna replace it with an android phone on friday...run both maverick and natty...any input?...just do it? | 03:28 |
| Sorinan | i removed the pendrive then it used the old grub, the problem where that I removed and put back the pendrive during install (im using it to install) | 03:28 |
| Sorinan | i don't think it's necessarily a bug, just isn't idiot proof (like me. :D) | 03:29 |
| szal | Cuchulainn: -> #ubuntu-offtopic | 03:29 |
| Cuchulainn | szal, yup..where then...i thought this was the off-topic channel? | 03:30 |
| Jordan_U | ghostnik11: Why are you compiling from source? | 03:30 |
| Cuchulainn | szal, my mistakee | 03:30 |
| ghostnik11 | jordan_u: b/c thats what the install file said? | 03:30 |
| knightrage | hey guys. so i recently installed natty narwhal with the default desktop environment... and i really don't care for it. is there a way i can change the look-and-feel and environment to that of previous ubuntu versions? | 03:31 |
| knightrage | (ie, no left screen dock bar thing) | 03:31 |
| ghostnik11 | jordan_u: is there a way i can get brasero updated without having to compile from source? | 03:31 |
| ActionParsnip | !classic | knightrage | 03:31 |
| ubottu | knightrage: 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". | 03:31 |

| knightrage | ActionParsnip++ | 03:32 |
| * szal doesn't have anything Android | 03:32 | |
| rypervenche | ghostnik11: Why do you need a more up-to-date version of Brasero? | 03:33 |
| Jordan_U | Sorinan: Once you're booted into Ubuntu can you pastebin the output of "debconf-show grub-pc"? | 03:33 |
| Cuchulainn | szal, thank you.. | 03:33 |
| ghostnik11 | rypervenche: b/c it won't let me burn my files to a dvd for some strange reason keeps giving me error | 03:33 |
| Seven_Six_Two | trying to enable xdmcp in gdm on 10.04 server. added /etc/gdm/custom.conf with options to enable. can't connect with remmina, don't see an option to connect from login screen (gdm) in 11.04 | 03:33 |

| ghostnik11 | rypervenche; figured if i update will solve problem? bad idea? | 03:34 |
| Seven_Six_Two | I have network cards connecting desktop and server, pings good | 03:34 |
| rypervenche | ghostnik11: You need to be troubleshooting that then, not compiling from source. You will probably end up having more problems doing that. | 03:34 |
| szal | ghostnik11: define 'error' | 03:34 |
| Jordan_U | ghostnik11: What error message exactly? | 03:34 |
| Sorinan | yes, np, but... now I can't boot from pendrive. I did a fresh copy do it (after a format) and it gives the license error.... | 03:35 |
| ghostnik11 | szal: when i try to burn in brasero i get this error: SCSI error on write(0,16): [3 0C 00] | 03:35 |
| ghostnik11 | jordan_U: this error message, SCSI error on write(0,16): [3 0C 00] | 03:35 |
| Jordan_U | Sorinan: Your sentences are not clear (to me at least). Can you boot Ubuntu sucessfully right now or not? | 03:35 |
| c001 | I keep getting an error when trying to do a sudo apt-get update sayinig "E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened." | 03:36 |
| Sorinan | no, not even on live pendrive. neither the installed or the installer media | 03:36 |
| c001 | about part way through | 03:36 |
| Jordan_U | Sorinan: OK. Have you tried changing the boot order (among your internal drives) yet? | 03:37 |
| Sorinan | yes, already did it. I will try to clean completely the pendrive and them copy the ISO to it again. lets be methodic | 03:39 |
| Sorinan | how do I zero the MBR with dd? | 03:39 |
| Seven_Six_Two | c001, is your drive full? | 03:40 |
| Seven_Six_Two | c001, have you removed or manually modified /etc/apt/sources.list? | 03:40 |

| Seven_Six_Two | osti401, player audio, pulse audio mixer, speakers on and up, speakers plugged into correct jack, when did it stop working? | 03:42 |

| rypervenche | ghostnik11: I really don't think that updating your Brasero will fix the problem. | 03:47 |
| szal | [THC]AcidRain: most likely because you configured it to do so or this is the default behaviour | 03:47 |

| FluttershyFan | I got a question on how to make ubuntu installer on flash drive, installing it from a 9.0 ubuntu live cd | 03:47 |
| rypervenche | ghostnik11: I would take that error message and check google. Or you can run brasero from the terminal, using verbose to see exactly where the problem is. | 03:48 |
| FluttershyFan | but putting the newest installer on flash drive | 03:48 |

| FluttershyFan | is it even possible to make an ubuntu 11 flash drive booter using ubuntu 9? | 03:50 |
| edbian | FluttershyFan: yes. Use the USB creator. Download a 11.04 ISO | 03:50 |

| === snuxoll is now known as Guest49962 | ||
| FluttershyFan | it wont let me start it; it keeps saying I need to format it even though I already did | 03:52 |
| FluttershyFan | idk how many times it wantsme to push it | 03:52 |
| ghostnik11 | rypervenche: i did try google but for one example of a solve that google gives me with ubuntu the person uses this command: wodim -v dev=/dev/cdrw /path/to/image/isoimage.iso and also lowered the speed of the writing to 12x which for me when i lowered it to 4x writing speed still didn't work and i don't think i can run command b/c i am not trying to burn iso to dvd, just files to dvd | 03:54 |
| ActionParsnip | FluttershyFan: sure, grab the natty ISO and MD5 test it. You can use usb-creator-gtk which is in a default install and create a USB device to boot with | 03:54 |
| edbian | FluttershyFan: Just format it again to make it happy | 03:55 |

| FluttershyFan | an uncaught exception was raised, errno 5 input/output error | 03:59 |
| Seven_Six_Two | myk_robinson, I believe you should be able to do it by clicking both the left and right mouse buttons. I have to do that on my laptop in blender | 04:00 |
| FluttershyFan | myk pressing both buttons down at the same tike is middle click I think | 04:00 |

| Sorinan | yes, im able. i rewrote first the pendrive and then booted it and reinstalled grub. In meantime I changed the HDs position on BIOS and I didn't pulled up the pendrive this time when I had the looong black screen on loading the live system | 04:12 |

| THIS_IS_INSANE | Seven_Six_Two: nope | 04:14 |
| Seven_Six_Two | THIS_IS_INSANE, type mount and hit enter. if it's mounted, it'll be listed | 04:14 |

| Pwnna | wait.. | 04:15 |
| Pwnna | *headdesk* | 04:15 |
| KM0201 | oh... i think someone else said that to... but glad you got it working... that's the beauty of an OS that doesn't really depend on the GUI... if youd' done that to a certain Redmond OS, you'd be reinstalling.. :) | 04:15 |
| Pwnna | those xorg drivers are still there | 04:15 |
| Pwnna | How can I remove the xorg-edgers packages and rollback to the original ones >.> | 04:15 |

| THIS_IS_INSANE | Seven_Six_Two: it's a zune, it's listed, and I can access the files, but I cannot copy them. | 04:15 |
| Pwnna | does that rollback packages? | 04:16 |
| FluttershyFan | why is ubuntu so stupid like this?? I always get some kind od error why didnt they make ubuntu to where you could just put it on your flash drive and be done... | 04:16 |
| ActionParsnip | chewyTree: it was nearly put into lubuntu rather than lxdm | 04:16 |
| KM0201 | chewyTree: i tried it early, and it was a mess.... | 04:16 |
| tiago | does anyone know if evernote devs are planning on making a linux version? nevernote is nice, but not as good as | 04:16 |
| Pwnna | ActionParsnip: if that removes all the packages, it might delete my linux 2.6.39-3 kernel, which is required for the ATI thing to work | 04:16 |
| KM0201 | ActionParsnip: i'm kinda hooked on lxdm, i hope that doesn't happen anytime soon | 04:16 |
| chewyTree | KM0201, ya i just installed the PPA, i can see the potential | 04:17 |
| KM0201 | chewyTree: on paper, good idea, not near ready for release yet... | 04:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Pwnna: it won't remove the kernel. Are you using Oneiric? | 04:17 |
| ActionParsnip | KM0201: its not going to happen from what I have seen | 04:17 |

| KM0201 | ActionParsnip: well, that won't bother me... lxdm has found a special place in my heart | 04:18 |
| ActionParsnip | FluttershyFan: you can, just use unetbootin or usb-creator | 04:18 |
| Seven_Six_Two | THIS_IS_INSANE, what output does mount give you? | 04:18 |
| Jordan_U | FluttershyFan: Despite what you were told earlier you can *not* make an Ubuntu 11.04 liveUSB using standard tools from an Ubuntu 9.04 system / LiveCD. | 04:18 |
| ActionParsnip | chewyTree: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM | 04:18 |

| Sorinan | im having a strange problem now, it does login but does not load Unity menus, altought the mouse moves, I see the background and I can change to VT. Im using a RV770 based card (Radeon HD4870). it is supposed to work? | 04:19 |
| chewyTree | KM0201, ughhh. damn. they have to do a big overhaul quickly lol | 04:19 |
| FluttershyFan | could I do it using a virutal windows xp cd loader? | 04:19 |
| ActionParsnip | KM0201: i use lxdm, it does what it's told :) | 04:19 |
| KM0201 | ActionParsnip: it caused me massive issues when i tried it earller... | 04:19 |
| chewyTree | ActionParsnip, Thanks man. | 04:19 |
| KM0201 | had to boot recovery and remove it and set things straight again. | 04:20 |
| chewyTree | KM0201, what issues? worked fine for me, just looked like it was from the 90's | 04:20 |
| Jordan_U | FluttershyFan: You don't need a virtual CD loader. Just use unetbootin (a recent version of it) and the iso. | 04:20 |
| KM0201 | chewyTree: wel, 1.. my mouse wouldn't work to select a user | 04:20 |
| KM0201 | 2. when i did select a user/sign in, it put me in a loop, and just took me right back to the log in screen | 04:20 |
| KM0201 | so i went to console, reconfigured, same problem | 04:20 |
| FluttershyFan | it keeps saying input/output error.. idk whats causing | 04:20 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | Seven_Six_Two: not sure. I can see both hard drives, but not my zune. | 04:21 |

| Pwnna | xorg on the edge.. | 04:21 |

| * Pwnna just fell off that edge | 04:21 | |
| Sorinan | Jordan_U, any idea? | 04:21 |

| THIS_IS_INSANE | Seven_Six_Two: and I don't know what it would call my zune... | 04:21 |
| Seven_Six_Two | THIS_IS_INSANE, "see"? in nautilus you mean? type mount in a terminal, and pastebin the output. dmesg as well | 04:21 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: if you're trying to get your zune working under Linux, let me assure you, that will not happen. | 04:21 |

| Jordan_U | Arena: Does your question have anything to do with Ubuntu support? | 04:23 |
| FluttershyFan | I dont have access to windows | 04:23 |

| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: well, i would call Redmond and ask them. | 04:25 |

| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: because Bill Gates had his hands in it most likely | 04:27 |

| Seven_Six_Two | c001, I'm at a loss, except that it mentions that there's something wrong with another file... | 04:27 |
| c001 | maybe i was doing OS updates on wifi. | 04:27 |
| Jordan_U | FluttershyFan: I can make you an iso that you can dd to your flash drive, or your internal drive if you don't mind losing all the data currently on it, that will allow you to install Ubuntu 11.04. | 04:27 |
| pksadiq | KM0201: then why should the windows<super> key work, ? ;) | 04:27 |

| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: well I'm just ****** then, cause I can't get this stuff any other way. and I'm not goin anywhere | 04:28 |
| pksadiq | THIS_IS_INSANE: by the way, you might try, go to terminal and cd to it's path and try to copy | 04:29 |
| c001 | the file /var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_natty_main_i18n_Translation-en got corrupted when i tried doing updates from the airport. It wrote the output of a wifi html page rather than the legit headers that needed to go in that file during updates. | 04:29 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: well, you'll need access to windows somehow. | 04:29 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | pksadiq: I can't find the path, that's the problem | 04:29 |

| ActionParsnip | daniel__: look into rsync. There is grsync which is a GUI to rsync | 04:30 |
| Jordan_U | FluttershyFan: Yes, if you can manage to do that. You should also be able to burn the iso to a CD with Ubuntu 9.04 (though if that fails for some reason we won't be able to help you as 9.04 is no longer supported). | 04:30 |

| FluttershyFan | my computer doesnt support 64: hence the 2.8ghz single core pentium 4 processor and 1.5gb ddr1 ram | 04:45 |
| PsyMar | the "tried to kill init" was followed by something that said init was fine, then a stack dump | 04:46 |
| PsyMar | (I know, I really should've copied down the messages) | 04:46 |
| rhin0 | thats pretty low level haven#t seen one of those for a long time (core/stack/register dump) | 04:46 |

I have a HD4870 as VGA and I;m using radeon as driver. If I use fglrx it goes a little further, showing a dialog with gnome-settings-daemon error, but same problem. Does anyone have a clue on why or haow can I debug it? | 04:47 |
| Seven_Six_Two | PsyMar, I don't remember the key...esc? f12? maybe alt+ctrl+f12 it should show you the text that goes by during boot...you can get to grub though, correct? maybe append apci=off noapic | 04:47 |
| PsyMar | Grub? | 04:47 |
| PsyMar | I haven't installed grub yet, I'm trying to install from CD | 04:47 |
| PsyMar | I'll try apci=off and noapic though | 04:47 |
| rhin0 | sorinan you sleected gnome classic view with no effects? | 04:48 |
| PsyMar | I'm alraedy using nomodeset | 04:48 |
| Seven_Six_Two | PsyMar, you have to boot the cd first, so do that when the cd boots (append to the kernel that you choose) | 04:48 |
| Sorinan | rhin0, no, good idea, let me check | 04:48 |
| Seven_Six_Two | PsyMar, remove that one to try these two. | 04:48 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: is there a way to log onto ubuntu as the root? cause that may be more fruitful | 04:48 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: you can use nautilus is root, but id on't know how many times i have to tell you, root is not the issue. | 04:49 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: this is not a permission issue, thats the only thing "root" can solve | 04:49 |

| help_novice | i have minimal linux experience | 04:50 |
| ActionParsnip | help_novice: is the file system healthy? You can fsck in liveCD / liveUSB to check | 04:50 |

| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: it's a hardware firmware issue. but if you got ubuntu to mimic the zune software, then you can trick the zune into granting file access. then, you've got access. this is a process way over my head, so I'll do it in windows. | 04:51 |
| * KM0201 sighs | 04:51 | |
| * mneptok is amazed someone will actually admit to owning a Zune | 04:51 | |
| * ActionParsnip though Zune died out as a bad joke | 04:52 | |
| * KM0201 loves his zune.. :) | 04:52 | |
| Blue1 | Seven_Six_Two: alt+f4 works also. | 04:52 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | Seven_Six_Two: in theory, if you convinced the zune that what it was connecting to was the zune software, it would grant complete read/write access, this would make it possible to do what I'm saying | 04:52 |
| Sorinan | rhin0, without effects: same problem | 04:52 |
| KM0201 | ActionParsnip: i got an 80gig zune for about 80 bucks on sale, NIB... so i'm not upset w/ it.. it's awesome | 04:52 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | I love my zune too. | 04:52 |
| FluttershyFan | e I just accidentally chiped a circular piece of data off the ubuntu cd I wasusing | 04:52 |
| ActionParsnip | KM0201: can the firmwae be flashed to someting friendlier | 04:52 |
| Sorinan | rhin0, no, sorry, now it loads the right click menu and notifications, but no gnome panel | 04:52 |
| Blue1 | THIS_IS_INSANE: http://pkill-9.com/how-to-get-linux-to-recognize-your-mp3-player/ | 04:52 |
| KM0201 | ActionParsnip: not to my knowledge, | 04:53 |
| Seven_Six_Two | FluttershyFan, then you had better get some duct tape! | 04:53 |
| KM0201 | Blue1: that will not work w/ a zune | 04:53 |
| mneptok | THIS_IS_INSANE: and such reverse engineering is probably in direct violation of the EULA you accepted when you started using the device. | 04:53 |
| rhin0 | sorinan personally I had to ditch 11.04 because of gpu (graphics) hangups of an obscure nature with nvidia card I know it's problematic | 04:53 |
| KM0201 | mneptok: EXACTLY! | 04:53 |
| rhin0 | went back to 10.04 | 04:53 |
| KM0201 | an beyon that, Redmon isn't gonna make it easy to do anyway | 04:53 |
| rhin0 | although 11.04 works fine on a new dell laptop | 04:53 |
| Seven_Six_Two | rhin0, is the mouse dead zone? | 04:53 |
| mneptok | lesson: if you don;t want to be stuch with Microsoft or Apple OSes, don;t buy Microsoft or Apple peripherals. | 04:54 |
| rhin0 | pardon Seven_Six_Two what does is the mouse dead zone mean -- if you mean gpu hangups -- yes the keyboard/mouse stopped working -- system was still running -- window manager hung | 04:54 |
| FluttershyFan | is ati radeon hd 5670 series (512mb) graphics cards supported by ubuntu? | 04:54 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | mneptok: i don't care, I'm don't have the skill to write a driver like that. I'm not violating any EULA at the moment. and if I were gonna, i'd never tell anyone here about it, and move to where they can't sue me | 04:55 |
| Seven_Six_Two | rhin0, oh no. I had an issue where there was a small rectangular area on both of my monitors where I couldn't click or scroll. just down from center, about 10cm long, 5cm high | 04:55 |
| rhin0 | bizarre - Seven_Six_Two | 04:55 |
| * Blue1 sighs -- good luck folks - going to watch mind numbing tv instead of irc | 04:55 | |
| ActionParsnip | FluttershyFan: sure the proprietary driver supports that chip | 04:56 |
| Seven_Six_Two | rhin0, it was. it lasted for a while, and an update fixed it. for some programs I had to keep moving a confirmation dialog to click ok. it was frustrating | 04:56 |
| rhin0 | FluttershyFan: problematic to get the proprietary drivers if you can't get in -- there is a "safe mode" for linux though | 04:56 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Blue1, make it Discovery channel, or you're going to get unsmartened | 04:57 |
| rhin0 | I think you can get in without the gui (in safe mode?) FluttershyFan | 04:57 |

| rhin0 | KM0201: what did you use to produce the video from your desktop? | 04:59 |

| KM0201 | otherwise, it's a command line utility. | 05:00 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: I know that, that's why I came here | 05:01 |
| KM0201 | i thought you couldn't even get your zune to mount? | 05:01 |
| KM0201 | you asked why if it woul mount, could you not copy/paste, etc.. | 05:01 |

| KM0201 | ActionParsnip: hmm, never usd that one | 05:02 |
| KM0201 | recordmydesktop is easy enough.. i've never saw reason to switch | 05:02 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | nope. I said I couldn't copy, but I could see all my files. he doesn't work for them anymore | 05:02 |
| rhin0 | choice -- such is the richness of ubuntu | 05:03 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: he may not work for them, but his fingerprints are all over crap like this. | 05:03 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: well, anywa, sorry to tell you, this is not going to work.. | 05:03 |
| KM0201 | thats why you can't play music that is on your zune either. | 05:03 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | I am aware of that now. but there is a way, I just don't have the skill to use it. | 05:03 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: well, people a lot smarter than me, have been working on it for some time, and haven't figured out a way.. so.. | 05:04 |
| Luxe | THANKS <3 | 05:04 |
| rypervenche | rhin0: You can also use ffmpeg for very good screencasts, but gtk-recordmydesktop is decent for normal things. | 05:05 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | well, good luck to them. | 05:05 |
| KM0201 | rypervenche: yeah, i forgot about ffmpeg to.. i usually use ffmpeg to convert the ogv's to mp4, so i can upload them. | 05:05 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: can you turn off manual sync in the zune software? | 05:05 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: the only way yu're getting anything off of that zune, is w/ the zune software.. | 05:06 |
| PsyMar | ARGH. Still getting kernel panics on install | 05:06 |
| PsyMar | And they're all "tried to kill init" | 05:06 |
| PsyMar | I tried the "verify disc" option, and that gave me a "could not mount root fs" kernel panic | 05:06 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: I'm gonna try that, but last time something like this happened, I lost my stuff. | 05:06 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: let this be a lesson on backups. | 05:07 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: pksadiq found a package, qlix, which claims to work. | 05:07 |
| KM0201 | lol | 05:07 |
| rypervenche | KM0201: rhin0 I wrote a script for ffmpeg. Still need to fix the way it installs dependencies, but yeah :P http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19330159/Scripts/screencast.sh | 05:07 |
| PsyMar | I'm about ready to give up on ever installing ubuntu; I found the option to reformat and reinstall XP, although I bet even that's corrupted by the virus I have on Windows at the moment | 05:08 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: i woul be very surprised if it does | 05:08 |
| KM0201 | i'm installing now, we'll see | 05:08 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: I couldn't back up because I used to have two hard drives, one held my movies, the other was full, and had windows. I had NO WHERE else to put my stuff. that drive died. I replaced it with a new, bigger one, and now have XP SP3 and Ubuntu, and backups. | 05:08 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: well, qlix gives me a "No Device Detected" w/ my zune connected/mounted | 05:09 |
| ___Alex___ | installing 11.04 64 bit from livecd, getting 'E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) The following packages are in a broken state: <blank> This may be due to using an old installer image, or it may be due to a bug in some of the packages listed above. Check /var/log/syslog for errors.... ' looking in /var/log/syslog, I see nothing but 'broken packages after installation: '..... | 05:09 |
| ___Alex___ | any ideas? | 05:09 |
| dr_Willis | PsyMar: thres other distros out there also to try | 05:09 |
| cpruitt | I'm sure there's a better channel for this so if anyone can direct me that'd be great, but I'm trying to set up an ubuntu box with Apache (first time) and looking at my error log it looks like fcgi keeps telling the server to restart and generating 500 errors. I'm kinda stuck on how to troubleshoot. | 05:09 |
| PsyMar | dr_willis: None of them have come recommended to me. Only one I've used is Red Hat, and it was worse than Windows | 05:09 |
| PsyMar | (not to mention it started fscking every boot...) | 05:10 |
| KM0201 | PsyMar: whats the prob w/ the ubuntu install? | 05:10 |
| PsyMar | KM: Kernel panic | 05:10 |
| PsyMar | "tried to kill init" | 05:10 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: I ran it sudo from terminal, take a look at the errors, http://paste.ubuntu.com/635582/ | 05:10 |
| PsyMar | this is installing from the CD | 05:10 |
| dr_Willis | PsyMar: reccomended? go try and devide for yuor self. :) it depends on your needs. | 05:10 |
| PsyMar | dr_Willis: I did try to decide. I decided on Ubuntu. But it won't zorkmid install. | 05:11 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: thats the same error i get when i run it in CLI. | 05:11 |
| rhin0 | cpruitt I found apache hard to set up for an internal web server for experimentaiton (painful) -- there is another choice - lighttpd -- which can be set up in minutes and implements fastcgi | 05:11 |
| RDaneelOlivaw | does anyone know how to switch back to unity after using classic? | 05:11 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: que es CLI? | 05:12 |
| dr_Willis | RDaneelOlivaw: gdm login menus | 05:12 |
| dr_Willis | !classic | 05:12 |
| ubottu | 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". | 05:12 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: command line interface... i ran it from terminal like you did there. | 05:12 |
| rhin0 | !unity | 05:12 |
| ubottu | 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. | 05:12 |
| dr_Willis | session menu shows all avail sessions | 05:12 |
| cpruitt | rhin0: Thanks for the tip. Given what I've already got invested in this box I'd like to resolve the errors & move forward, but I'll look into lighttpd for future use. My preference though is Apache+Passenger+Rails | 05:13 |
| RDaneelOlivaw | well, i've got an optimus laptop and it automatically switched to classic even though the selected session menu is Ubuntu (not classic). I've installed bumblebee which should enable me to use unity so Im wondering how to switch in this case (another way other the login screen option) | 05:13 |
| rhin0 | lighttpd is a fully featured web server cpruitt but much much smaller than apache and therefore less complex -- it is in use on some big production websites (youtube for instance) | 05:14 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: unmount the zune, cause it's "busy" run qlix. it detected my zune | 05:14 |
| === hlap is now known as zodac | ||
| KM0201 | ok. | 05:14 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: well, it detected mine... but it doesn't look like its doing anything | 05:15 |
| dr_Willis | RDaneelOlivaw: gdm gets the default to use from .dmrc file. but ive no idea how/why bumble would matter | 05:15 |
| KM0201 | Device 0 (VID=045e and PID=0710) is a Microsoft Zune. lmao, well i knew that | 05:16 |
| cpruitt | rhin0: Thanks. I'm mildly familiar with it. I just have all of my experience with Apache so I'm most familiar with it. I've just never set it up from scratch. | 05:16 |
| KM0201 | then the program shuts down | 05:16 |
| dr_Willis | these dual gpu chipset systems are becimming a top 10 faq in this channel it seems | 05:16 |
| RDaneelOlivaw | dr_Willis: is there a way I can edit the .dmrc file? | 05:16 |
| KM0201 | dr_Willis: been noticing that to. | 05:16 |
| dr_Willis | RDaneelOlivaw: its a text file | 05:16 |
| RDaneelOlivaw | dr_Willis: where is it? | 05:17 |
| cpruitt | Given that I'm not the only one using the serve, I need to bear the other users in mind as well | 05:17 |
| dr_Willis | RDaneelOlivaw: but i dont see why gdm and bunble bee are conflictibg. | 05:17 |
| dr_Willis | RDaneelOlivaw: home dir like all other .files :) | 05:17 |
| RDaneelOlivaw | dr_Willis: Well, I booted ubuntu without bumblebee | 05:17 |
| RDaneelOlivaw | dr_Willis: and got the message that I can't run unity | 05:18 |
| RDaneelOlivaw | dr_willis: so, I installed bumblebee and assumed on reboot that ubuntu would try to use unity again | 05:18 |
| dr_Willis | ive never used bumbe. so no idea how it wirks. i tjought you ran it. enabled nvidea. then restarted the x servr | 05:19 |
| dr_Willis | not rebooted | 05:19 |
| RDaneelOlivaw | I can't enable nvidia because the display runs off the intel card | 05:19 |
| RDaneelOlivaw | the nvidia just crunches numbers | 05:19 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | pksadiq: what the fuck did that just do to my computer? | 05:19 |
| RDaneelOlivaw | at least im pretty sure thats how optimus works | 05:19 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: what was the result? I had to reboot my computer | 05:20 |
| dr_Willis | RDaneelOlivaw: i dont think thats right | 05:20 |
| dr_Willis | but i dont know for sure. ;) | 05:20 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: it didn't work. | 05:20 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: damn | 05:20 |
| KM0201 | Device 0 (VID=045e and PID=0710) is a Microsoft Zune. then i get a segmentation fault | 05:21 |
| dr_Willis | id say check askubuntu.com anf the forums RDaneelOlivaw | 05:21 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: well I got that far, and then nada | 05:21 |
| KM0201 | yup, it shuts down | 05:21 |
| RDaneelOlivaw | dr_Willis: yea, im looking around, thanks for the help tho | 05:21 |
| === MrNaz` is now known as MrNaz | ||
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: i'm trying to tell you.. this is not gonna work, try to disable auto sync on the zune software, then just hook your zune up, an go from there. | 05:21 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: exactly. pksadiq had me doing something else, and it didn't work either | 05:22 |
| dr_Willis | i will be in market for new laptop in like a year.. hope this dual vid stuff wirks by then | 05:22 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: yeah, I guess | 05:22 |
| pksadiq | THIS_IS_INSANE: better, live it to M$ :( | 05:22 |
| andr0-mr | somebody can help me? | 05:22 |
| dr_Willis | !ask | 05:22 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 05:22 |
| rhin0 | whats up andr0-mr | 05:22 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: i've been dealing w/ trying to get a Zune working in Linux for about 3yrs.. | 05:23 |
| KM0201 | i'm convinced it's the only thing Microsoft has actually locked down and completely secured, in the companies history | 05:23 |
| rhin0 | would think microsoft intentionally make their stuff harder to interface with linux | 05:23 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: dang... what kind of zune do you have? | 05:23 |
| andr0-mr | hey...i already install ubuntu 11.04 on my new hp laptop pavilion dv7 and i cant make work the ati controller | 05:23 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: 80gig zune video. | 05:23 |
| ___Alex___ | apparently, after the install crashed, my machine was bootable, so following through the instructions provided when running sudo apt-get update & upgrade fixed my 11.04 installation issues... btw, I checked my md5sum and it matches, so it's clearly a bug in 11.04 installer | 05:23 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: I had one of those, and I accidentally let it get sucked into the giant magnet I have in my room. it died instantly. so I now have a 32gb zune touch | 05:24 |
| rhin0 | andr0-mr: there is a "unity desktop" which may not work right away with your graphics card and there is a "classic view" -- select "classic view" (no effects) | 05:24 |
| FluttershyFan | omg | 05:24 |
| rhin0 | andr0-mr: then you can get in to download the proprietary drivers for your graphics card and then maybe run unity desktop | 05:24 |
| Kyshtynbai | Guys, I have problem downloading big torrents. My system begins to get so slow, that I can't work in it. Top doesn't show anything wrong, and i belive it's not a memory leak. I think the problem is with the HDD, but hjow do I get sure? Are there any diagnostic tools for HDDs? | 05:24 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | pksadiq: I'm not mad at you, my computer went to a text screen, and I never got back to the desktop. | 05:24 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: I got this one on some midnight madness sale before christmas for like 85 bucks... been really happy with it, i love it. | 05:24 |
| FluttershyFan | why did they take that install feature out of ubuntu 11 | 05:24 |
| pksadiq | THIS_IS_INSANE: my bad :( | 05:24 |
| andr0-mr | rhin0, i do everything and i cant do work this machine | 05:24 |
| dr_Willis | !smart | 05:24 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: the one i've got is way better. | 05:25 |
| rhin0 | andr0-mr: did you try to log in with "classic desktop" you click on the user -- and to select which desktop you require is then at the bottom of the screen | 05:25 |
| dr_Willis | Kyshtynbai: try dmesg command to see logs | 05:25 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | pksadiq: it's no big deal, I just had to reboot 3 times (two were cause of my shitty bios) | 05:25 |
| dr_Willis | Kyshtynbai: try other torrent clients also | 05:26 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: i have no doubt the one you have is better, but i'm guessing it was more than 80 bucks. | 05:26 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: yeah, but I didn't pay for it, it was a gift. | 05:26 |
| andr0-mr | rhin0, i did..now when i got to system-preferences-ati catalyst control center some message appears: please install the ATI driver appropriate for you ATI hardware, or configure using aticonfig. | 05:26 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: well, guess you got lucky. | 05:26 |
| FluttershyFan | im about to throw my computer out the window | 05:27 |
| FluttershyFan | lol | 05:27 |
| Kyshtynbai | dr_Willis, already tried several clients with no effect). And what about dmesg, what strings should i look for? | 05:27 |
| andr0-mr | rhin0, and i did install from additional drivers and still, dosnt work | 05:27 |
| rhin0 | andr0-mr: you probably need the driver for your graphics card from the ATI website -- if it is not available through "system -> preferences -> additional drivers" | 05:27 |
| rhin0 | ah. further to that I do not know. hopefully somebody else can help you andr0-mr | 05:28 |
| dr_Willis | Kyshtynbai: one mentioning the hd | 05:28 |
| Kyshtynbai | I see, thanks! | 05:28 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: si senor. well if you wanna know how to do it in windows, I have a link, but my windows drive didn't mount... (possible FML) | 05:28 |
| KM0201 | no how to do what? | 05:28 |
| rhin0 | andr0-mr: also make sure you have completely updated your system --- system -> administration -> update manager | 05:28 |
| andr0-mr | rhin0, i download from the website, but still donst work :( | 05:28 |
| dr_Willis | use the repo tools to install the ati drivers. Not the ati website. | 05:28 |

| dr_Willis | rc.local geta ran once at boot. | 05:52 |
| bazhang | cyperbg, sudo apt-get install sensors-applet | 05:52 |
| cyperbg | bazhang, yes but it doesn't show the Ati GPU temperatures if installed from the repos | 05:52 |
| dr_Willis | its not really a service | 05:52 |
| Padge | Probably the same reasons I had reservations about it three days ago. | 05:52 |
| Deathbringer | any one? | 05:52 |
| dtchen | Erik500002: after suspend/resume, or always? | 05:52 |
| cyperbg | bazhang it needs to be compiled manually for the Ati GPU temperatures to show | 05:52 |
| bazhang | cyperbg, thats the same package. better to configure it to do so | 05:53 |
| Erik500002 | always | 05:53 |
| Erik500002 | dtchen: doesn't seem to work at all in natty :/ so dissapointing | 05:53 |
| cyperbg | bazhang I want to install it manually. Can you help? | 05:53 |
| dr_Willis | padge had to reinstall to fix it. cobstant updateing of it.. dont see the point in it.. etc.. but thats ot for here | 05:53 |
| dtchen | Erik500002: it works fine for my AR9285 | 05:53 |

| KM0201 | lol | 06:02 |
| Dan39 | guess that was your problem, you didnt sudo :P | 06:02 |
| Dan39 | sudo ftl | 06:03 |

| Dan39 | haha | 06:04 |
| rhin0 | Deathbringer: gnome desktop (classic view) | 06:04 |
| Dan39 | gnome maybe | 06:04 |
| morth | are you using 11.04? | 06:04 |
| Deathbringer | yeah thats it rhin0 thanks | 06:04 |
| rhin0 | Deathbringer: sounds like you are using the unity desktop | 06:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Deathbringer: Gnome is default in Ubuntu. KDE is default in KUbuntu. XFCE is default in XUbuntu. LXDE is default in LUbuntu | 06:04 |
| * KM0201 <3's lxde | 06:05 | |
| rhin0 | which will take some getting used to but I believe has some advantages (faster than gnome to start with) | 06:05 |
| ActionParsnip | <3s LXDE too | 06:05 |

| wsagent | ok for file sharing i can use openssh-server thanks... for running another application in ubuntu i need full desktop as wll | 06:20 |
| bikcmp | hi all, are the ubuntu repos being a bit funky today? :P | 06:22 |
| ActionParsnip | wsagent: but to what end. What will you be doing on the desktop? | 06:22 |
| wsagent | use as normal as i am working from home | 06:23 |
| munis | how are you today | 06:23 |
| ActionParsnip | wsagent: makes sense then, a lot of the time vnc is OTT and there are sleeker solutions | 06:24 |
| ActionParsnip | wsagent: the ubottu factoid will show how to setup a secured vnc session using ssh tunnelling | 06:24 |

| KM0201 | bikcmp: sounds like its having trouble finding it in the repositories. | 06:26 |
| KM0201 | you are using 32bit, right? | 06:26 |
| ActionParsnip | KM0201: the packages have i386 in the names | 06:26 |
| bikcmp | KM0201: yes. | 06:26 |
| ActionParsnip | bikcmp: try switching server in software centre | 06:26 |
| KM0201 | ActionParsnip: they do indeed.. :) | 06:26 |
| bikcmp | ActionParsnip: eh? | 06:26 |
| KM0201 | yup.. try switching servers. | 06:26 |
| bikcmp | ActionParsnip: i'm using the command line. | 06:26 |
| PackagedGeek404 | Please don | 06:26 |
| PackagedGeek404 | Nevermind. | 06:26 |
| bikcmp | what would I change in sources.list? | 06:27 |
| PackagedGeek404 | Please don't hate me for saying this, but how can I make my Ubuntu have more of a Mac OS X feel? | 06:27 |
| ActionParsnip | bikcmp: then remove 'us.' from each line, will switch you to the main server | 06:27 |
| bikcmp | ActionParsnip: will try | 06:27 |
| KM0201 | you could just wget the .deb file, and then use dpkg to install it | 06:27 |
| ActionParsnip | PackagedGeek404: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/09/make-ubuntu-look-like-mac-osx-in.html | 06:27 |

| fdeiam | but by using a smp kernel does ubuntu use mulitple core throughout normal use ? | 06:28 |
| ActionParsnip | bikcmp: if you are using cli, how do you intend to use flash? Or are you sticking to CLI for fun? | 06:28 |
| KM0201 | or download the tar file. | 06:28 |
| bikcmp | ActionParsnip: mainly because my system is rather slow | 06:28 |
| bikcmp | and it would lag if i opened software center, really. | 06:28 |
| KM0201 | bikcmp: so why on earth are you putting flash on it.. | 06:28 |
| bikcmp | KM0201: it actually works fine in chrome. | 06:28 |
| bikcmp | opening apps in ubuntu seems to go kinda slow. | 06:28 |
| bikcmp | probably something I messed up. :P | 06:29 |
| bikcmp | yes, I know :P | 06:29 |
| bikcmp | hm | 06:30 |
| bikcmp | i'm afraid that the problem doesn't seem like it's the actual software repo | 06:30 |
| bikcmp | it looks like the package is actually just a command to wget a tar | 06:30 |
| bikcmp | and it's 404'ing. | 06:30 |

| KM0201 | bikcmp: ok, and what happened? | 06:31 |
| KM0201 | no its not | 06:31 |
| KM0201 | thats a tar file | 06:31 |

| bikcmp | KM0201: what do I do with that, then? | 06:31 |
| KM0201 | bikcmp: well you seem to know everything, so i figured you had it all figured out. | 06:31 |
| bikcmp | tar xf xyz; cd xyz; cp -r * /? | 06:31 |
| wsagent | bikcmp: remove flash plugion and reinstall it | 06:31 |
| bikcmp | wsagent: i've tried that | 06:31 |
| bikcmp | KM0201: why do you think that? i wouldn't come into #ubuntu for help if I knew everything | 06:32 |
| wsagent | bikcmp: sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-installer | 06:32 |
| bikcmp | wsagent: i've already tried. | 06:32 |
| bikcmp | it's 404'ing on the archive server. | 06:32 |
| fdeiam | bikcmp, that tar file is not specific to KDE so you were off by long shot. | 06:32 |
| bikcmp | fdeiam: perhaps i looked at another | 06:32 |
| KM0201 | bikcmp: did you copy/paste what i told yout o above? | 06:32 |
| bikcmp | i'll go look at that. | 06:32 |
| bikcmp | KM0201: this is what made me think it's for KDE. | 06:33 |

| KM0201 | bikcmp: its a source file | 06:33 |
| tomcheng76 | bikcmp: just wait the repo fix it or you should manually download the flash tar and install it...wget the tar.gz , tar xvf the.tar.gz and ./flash-install-xyz.sh | 06:33 |
| KM0201 | it has nothing to do w/ kde | 06:33 |

| KM0201 | what i don't understand, your computer is so slow, you can't download flash from adobe.com or from the repositories w/ synaptic, but you're gonna watch youtube. | 06:46 |
| KM0201 | .. | 06:46 |
| bikcmp | KM0201: yes, i know i know | 06:46 |
| bikcmp | just pretend i didn't say that | 06:47 |
| KM0201 | i'm pretending you didn't ay a lot of things, cuz you're not making sense | 06:47 |
| bikcmp | KM0201: it worked, regardless | 06:47 |
| bikcmp | thanks. :P | 06:47 |
| KM0201 | usually i'd have ignored yu by now, but i'm out of ice tea | 06:47 |
| KM0201 | no problem | 06:47 |
| bikcmp | KM0201: heh, thanks for putting up with me | 06:47 |
| bikcmp | KM0201: the thing is, i'm on a netbook, and launching apps can be slow at times | 06:47 |
| bikcmp | flash can be a bit weird, but honestly, it isn't too bad | 06:47 |
| bikcmp | gnome probably is really heavy. | 06:47 |
| KM0201 | bikcmp: i dunno... i've got lubuntu on my netbook, its fine. | 06:48 |
| bikcmp | lubuntu? | 06:48 |
| KM0201 | bikcmp: ubuntu w/ lxde (much lighter GUI than gnome/unity, kde, etc.) | 06:48 |
| KM0201 | lubuntu.net | 06:48 |
| bikcmp | o. | 06:49 |
| bikcmp | KM0201: i might try that next time. | 06:49 |
| bikcmp | i was thinking just debian 6 with openbox or something. | 06:49 |
| junmayser | dvd ripper , anyone .... ? | 06:49 |
| bikcmp | thing is, ubuntu has all of my drivers | 06:49 |
| bikcmp | so it's less of a pain | 06:49 |
| wildbat | anyone know how do i configure openbox keyboard shortcut? | 06:49 |
| KM0201 | bikcmp: if "ubuntu" has all your drivers, so will "Lubuntu".. they run on the same kernel, the GUI is the only difference | 06:49 |
| bikcmp | KM0201: yes, i know | 06:50 |
| bikcmp | KM0201: i'm just saying that rather than ubuntu, for my next wipe i might just use debian | 06:50 |
| bikcmp | and build it from the base | 06:50 |
| bikcmp | if that makes sense | 06:50 |
| bikcmp | :P | 06:50 |
| KM0201 | God help you if you go to #debian talking the way you did here | 06:50 |

| babu__ | but what is gateway | 06:57 |
| babu__ | what value should i give there | 06:57 |
| Diverdude | any1? | 06:57 |
| fdeiam | babu__, the ip address of your router | 06:57 |
| abstrusenick | how does bash look up for ~/.bash_profile file? | 06:58 |
| abstrusenick | is it based on $HOME variable? | 06:58 |
| KM0201 | Deathbringer: curious, did that install the "normal" ubuntu desktop? | 06:58 |

| KM0201 | ok | 06:58 |
| dtchen | Diverdude: the most recent LTS, 10.04 | 06:58 |

| fdeiam | babu__, if set to router will cause router to resolve dns requests for you | 06:58 |
| Deathbringer | how do i get utorrent-1.8.2 to open and run on wine in ubuntu it does in cent | 06:58 |
| dtchen | Diverdude: the most recent /LTS/ | 06:59 |
| fdeiam | babu__, actually that is wrong. you can use router ip address for gateway and dns servers | 06:59 |
| KM0201 | Deathbringer: did you download utorrent? | 06:59 |
| Deathbringer | yes | 06:59 |

| KM0201 | hang on | 07:00 |
| dtchen | Tyrope: are you passing -d -m ? | 07:00 |

| KM0201 | Deathbringer: did you install wine? | 07:00 |
| Deathbringer | yes | 07:00 |
| odie5533 | What window manager does ubuntu use? | 07:00 |
| Deathbringer | but it crashes tightvnc viewer | 07:01 |
| fdeiam | bare in mind if hardware of yours is somewhat new it may require a more recent kernel to be supported, otoh, older hardware awfully enough, requires a older kernel to work sometimes due to bugs. | 07:01 |
| KM0201 | Deathbringer: hmm | 07:01 |
| KM0201 | what do you mean it crashes it. | 07:01 |
| KM0201 | it crashes when you install wine, or it crashes when you try to use wine to install th e.exe? | 07:01 |
| fdeiam | wine has done nothing for me than give me nightmares | 07:01 |
| qin | odie5533: Unity or Gnome, or KDE (kubuntu), or Xfce (Xubuntu), etc | 07:01 |
| KM0201 | fdeiam: i only use it for pokerstars | 07:01 |
| KM0201 | and for that, it works.. :) | 07:01 |
| Deathbringer | try to install the exe | 07:02 |
| KM0201 | what are you typign to install the .exe? | 07:02 |
| dtchen | Tyrope: I'm surprised that screen even interprets -d -m in that syntax | 07:02 |
| odie5533 | qin: is unity the most popular? | 07:03 |
| Tyrope | dtchen: so I am doing it wrong... how does one fix it? | 07:03 |
| ActionParsnip | odie5533: by default compiz, if no 3D accelleration is available then metacity | 07:03 |
| KM0201 | Deathbringer: ?.. what did you type to install utorrent in wine? | 07:04 |
| fdeiam | i updated my nvidia video card drivers so that i could use natty unity interface however when i select "ubuntu" from gdm it defaults to the formerly chosen ubuntu classic with no effects. i'm on a low resource computer so i don't know whether gnome or unity is lighter in natty | 07:04 |
| Deathbringer | igot it | 07:04 |
| KM0201 | ok | 07:04 |
| KM0201 | fdeiam: gnome, definitely | 07:04 |
| Deathbringer | well im off to bed im fallin asleep | 07:04 |
| dtchen | Tyrope: according to screen's man page, the options should precede the command to be executed. | 07:04 |
| KM0201 | actually, you should try lxde if you're low on resources.. :) | 07:04 |
| fdeiam | KM0201, its lighter than unity ? | 07:05 |
| KM0201 | fdeiam: Windows is lighter than Unity. | 07:05 |
| KM0201 | lol | 07:05 |
| Tyrope | dtchen: so... screen -d -m -S name command | 07:05 |
| ActionParsnip | Deathbringer: there is a linux version of utorrent | 07:05 |
| stefan_ | Hello, there is a command generating random inputs, which one is it? For te terminal... | 07:05 |
| Deathbringer | but is it a exe or a wwebversion? | 07:05 |
| fdeiam | KM0201, its 3.2ghz ht with 2gb ram my 160gb hard drive is tied up in using miro though i do have a backup drive through usb. the video card is a mere fx5200 | 07:05 |
| fdeiam | should i be able to run unity ? | 07:06 |
| KM0201 | fdeiam: hmm, i had that fx5200 a while ago (like 7.04, 7.10, 8.04) and it worked pretty good. | 07:06 |
| ActionParsnip | fdeiam: nice backup, most don't have backup :) | 07:06 |
| KM0201 | fdeiam: i would think you could... | 07:06 |
| ActionParsnip | fdeiam: you will use the nvidia-96 driver (i belive it's that) | 07:07 |
| Deathbringer | is it a exe ActionParsnip? | 07:07 |
| fdeiam | KM0201, not bad at all. definitely. i think a step up would be a geforce 6200 though i believe this computer to be temporary hopefully. | 07:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Deathbringer: no, its a native linux application | 07:07 |
| Deathbringer | whats that? | 07:07 |

| Deathbringer | how do i make a torrent withj transmision? | 07:14 |
| Jordan_U | Diverdude: dpkg -l | grep mysql | 07:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Deathbringer: do you mean upload a new torrent, or do you want to download the contents of a torrent file? | 07:15 |
| Deathbringer | UPLOAD | 07:15 |

| Diverdude | Jordan_U, hmmm okay strange...there is no package with mysql....but mysql is installed. I know because i can start it up. how should that be understood? | 07:17 |
| Jordan_U | Diverdude: How are you starting mysql? Are you starting the client, the server, or both? | 07:17 |

| rob | was wondering if someone might answer a question about using gparted and reinstalling windows? | 07:18 |
| avinashhm | Hi friends, i am not able to change the permission of a mounted directory .. ( my portable HDD .. which has FAT32 partition ) .. is this expected ? .. more logs @ http://paste.ubuntu.com/635622/ | 07:18 |
| Jordan_U | Diverdude: That would be the mysql client. What is the output of "which mysql"? | 07:18 |
| Diverdude | /opt/bitnami/mysql/bin/mysql | 07:19 |
| dtchen | Tyrope: -D? | 07:19 |
| Jordan_U | Diverdude: /opt/ is a directory used by third party installers, i.e. things installed without using the package manager. | 07:20 |
| Diverdude | Jordan_U, ahhh okay | 07:20 |
| rob | using ubuntu live cd, used gparted to delete the paritions on the hard drive. however i can't remove the linux swap file. when rebooting to reinstall windows, windows states it can't find a hard drive. yet disk diag from the bios shows the disk and tests as fine. and rebooting off the live cd, i can see an manipulate the drive. do i need to do something special in gparted to get it to show so i can reinstall windows? | 07:21 |
| Diverdude | Jordan_U, so it has been installed by 3rd party. If i install mysql using packet manager it will most likely conflict right? | 07:21 |

| ThePaRaDoX | i think so yes let me check | 07:30 |
| _Neytiri_ | can i reinstall my OS without ruining my software raided drives | 07:30 |
| ThePaRaDoX | rob: i dont have a folder named libexec in my /usr | 07:31 |
| _Neytiri_ | when the OS is not installed on the raided drives | 07:31 |
| ThePaRaDoX | only lib abd lib64 | 07:31 |
| ThePaRaDoX | and* | 07:31 |

| rob | try changing the admin pass by running this: /usr/lib/webmin/changepass.pl /etc/webmin admin pass | 07:32 |
| avinashhm | Hi friends, i am not able to change the permission of a mounted directory .. ( my portable HDD .. which has FAT32 partition ) .. is this expected ? .. more logs @ http://paste.ubuntu.com/635622/ .. any help please .. | 07:32 |
| rob | then try logging in with admin|pass | 07:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Is webmin supported here....? | 07:33 |
| ThePaRaDoX | gimme a sec rob to check | 07:33 |
| ThePaRaDoX | rob no i tried username and pass admin|pass and admin|admin as well... not a chance:P | 07:34 |
| rob | after running the command frm terminal? | 07:34 |
| ThePaRaDoX | let me try again cause it will drive me nuts lol | 07:34 |
| rob | a;ways does | 07:35 |
| _Neytiri_ | did you restart the service after the pass change? | 07:35 |
| ActionParsnip | avinashhm: you set permissions and ownership at mount with ntfs and fat based partitions. They are too primitive to store Linux file attributes | 07:35 |
| Frenk | Hey, I have an issue with my WiFi. I can not connect to any network. The Network-Manager shows some networks, but it seems its a cache of networks he found before. I deinstalled my Broadcom driver and reinstalled it, still nothing. Can anyone advice what to do? | 07:35 |
| rob | laptop? | 07:35 |
| Frenk | yes rob | 07:35 |
| avinashhm | ActionParsnip, how can i change it during mount ... its a HDD and as i plug, it gets detected and mounted | 07:36 |
| rob | try turning the wireless off on the laptop to clear the cache or remove all saved networks. then try again and see if it pulls a fresh list of networks | 07:36 |
| ThePaRaDoX | rob: reply whenever u can no rush | 07:36 |
| avinashhm | ActionParsnip, Is it defined during create time ? | 07:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Frenk: if yo run: sudo iwlist scan | head -n 30 do you see wireless access points? | 07:36 |
| rob | @<ThePaRaDoX> after you made the pass change, did you restart the service? | 07:37 |
| ThePaRaDoX | rob check ur pvt cause i dont think it changed anything lol | 07:37 |
| Frenk | ActionParsnip: yes I see 2 | 07:38 |
| ActionParsnip | avinashhm: you can add udev rules or an entry in /etc/fstab to define the mount options, or you can manually mount it | 07:38 |
| Frenk | ActionParsnip: but the funny thing is, I do not see the wirelessnetwork of a router I | 07:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Frenk: what is the wireless interface name please? wlan0? eth1? | 07:39 |

| nkh1 | hello there, I have problem with dd , i want to write zeroz in MBR of my Dead Flash Drive but it does not write them ! :| no change after doing dd , any idea?! | 07:40 |
| mobodo | is there a way to reset the settings or Xorg / gnome? I migrated from a different PC and it's trying to load X with the nvidia drivers even though I don't have an nvidia card anymore... | 07:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Kartagis: no worries dude. Thanks for the gratitude :-) | 07:41 |
| Frenk | ActionParsnip: It just does not see my home-network. Other devices (Win and iOS can connect and see the network) | 07:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Frenk: if you install wicd via wired connection is it better? | 07:41 |
| Kartagis | ActionParsnip: so, anything for me? .avi files can be viewed in vlc but not in totem | 07:42 |
| nkh1 | hello there, I have problem with dd , i want to write zeroz in MBR of my Dead Flash Drive but it does not write them ! :| no change after doing dd , any idea?! | 07:42 |
| ActionParsnip | avinashhm: why are you trying to make a folder executable anyway? | 07:43 |
| avinashhm | ActionParsnip, sorry .. not trying to make it executable, but writable.. i want to make it writable .. i think just to show i executed wrong | 07:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Kartagis: try installing gnome-mplayer it pulls in more plugins | 07:44 |
| N9NU | does anyone remember the CLI command to exclude a folder or file from a mass copy (from one drive to another) i want to 'cp * (less one folder) | 07:45 |
| rob | quick question for anyone. why does banshee make duplicates of most of my music when imported, which in turn makes duplicates on my hard drive? | 07:45 |
| ActionParsnip | avinashhm: last time you removed the stick from a system, what steps did you take | 07:45 |
| N9NU | is there a pipe command | 07:45 |
| nkh1 | any body can help me with dd command ? it has no effect on my flash drive! | 07:45 |
| avinashhm | ActionParsnip, i just umount /media/win and then plugged it out | 07:45 |
| avinashhm | ActionParsnip, we change the permission using ownmask , othmask right ? | 07:46 |
| tonyyarusso | nkh1: What are you using? Any errors? | 07:46 |
| ActionParsnip | avinashhm: you need to eject it too. The desktop and nautilus entries for the partition have this in the right click menu | 07:47 |
| Diverdude | ActionParsnip, where do you gain all your linux knowledge from? | 07:47 |
| ActionParsnip | Diverdude: experience, google and bing :-) | 07:47 |
| avinashhm | ActionParsnip, i though , doing umount from CLI, does eject ? is it wrong ? | 07:47 |
| nkh1 | tonyyarusso: no errors , it says that copy is done , but nothing has been copied | 07:48 |
| Diverdude | ActionParsnip, hehe nice :) ou work as admin? | 07:48 |
| tonyyarusso | nkh1: What command did you try? When you say "dead flash drive", what do you mean? | 07:48 |
| nkh1 | tonyyarusso: I want to write zeros from /dev/zero to my dead flash drive using dd and after that there is nothing canged on my Flash | 07:48 |
| tonyyarusso | nkh1: I know that. | 07:48 |
| ActionParsnip | avinashhm: does the device have an activity light | 07:49 |
| tonyyarusso | nkh1: What command did you try? When you say "dead flash drive", what do you mean? | 07:49 |
| Totem-Schalter | l | 07:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Diverdude: no but working on exams to ;-) | 07:49 |
| nkh1 | tonyyarusso: i tried this : dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=512 count=1 | 07:49 |
| Diverdude | ActionParsnip, exams? | 07:49 |
| Frenk | ActionParsnip: Thanks, I installed the wicd, but I still can not see my network - I rebooted the router few times, other clients can connects (and my notebook too if I boot with Windows) but nor wicd nor ubuntus networkmanager see it =( | 07:49 |
| nkh1 | tonyyarusso: dead , I mean it cant be formatted or recognized or mount or so due to Input/Output Error | 07:50 |
| tonyyarusso | nkh1: Okay, and how are you determining that nothing changed? | 07:50 |
| avinashhm | ActionParsnip, 'sudo mount -t auto /dev/sdb1 /media/win.pc/' .. how to change this one to include permissions ? ..yes device has a activity light, which turns off after i do the umount .. | 07:50 |
| nkh1 | tonyyarusso: od -h -N 512 /dev/sdb | 07:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Diverdude: play with your OS and see what it can do rather than just logging on to Facebook and you'll learn | 07:50 |
| nkh1 | tonyyarusso: any idea !? :-/ | 07:51 |
| rob | ^ lol | 07:51 |
| Qadar | o/ | 07:51 |
| ActionParsnip | avinashhm: add: -o rw,user,uid=1000 should help | 07:51 |
| tonyyarusso | nkh1: Well, I'm a little perplexed that dd isn't throwing an error, but it sounds like you just can't write to your drive and should throw it out. | 07:52 |
| nkh1 | tonyyarusso: heee :D , I'm just trying to found a way to learn someThing more :D ;) | 07:52 |
| Cryptorchild | does anyone knows about routing with iproute2 | 07:52 |
| nkh1 | tonyyarusso: maybe it's possible to find the corrupted sector and ignore it :-?? :D | 07:53 |
| ActionParsnip | Erik500002: run: sudo lshw -C network you'll see the wireless chip. Use it to find guides | 07:53 |
| avinashhm | ActionParsnip, thanks man .. it really helped ... i appreciate your responses .. thanks very much | 07:53 |

| nkh1 | wildbat: :)) cool +1 ;) | 07:58 |
| especially-corn | ActionParsnip, i don't use the software center, i removed all gnome/unity related things | 07:58 |
| ActionParsnip | avinashhm: take out the o= and it should be ok. I suggest you run: sudo blkid and use the UUID of the partition. | 07:59 |
| ActionParsnip | especially-corn: then try adding: gb. To make each line gb.archive etc. This then uses the UK server. | 08:00 |
| avinashhm | ActionParsnip, sure man .. i ll add the UUID .. thanks buddy | 08:01 |
| pooky | can anyone advise me on what packages I need to install on natty to get unpack200 | 08:01 |
| Strav | Hi. I'm experiencing a rather slow boot process since ubuntu 10.10. The step where the system spends most of it's time seems to be in the scripts init-bottom part (which I don't exactly know what it stands for). After what, I see some fsck reports and everything goes smoothly up to gdm. I also installed bootchart, seen some stuff there but nothing that clearly explains this hang on the boot. I also tried to set no fsck (0) in my fstab | 08:02 |
| Strav | for my / and home partitions, it didn't help. Any suggestions on how can I find the source of my problem? (I could post the bootchart if needed) | 08:02 |

| pooky | Jordan_U, hrm, I tried that package after a quick google search, but no luck | 08:03 |

| _Neytiri_ | can i reinstall my OS without ruining my software raided drives, when the OS was not origionally installed on them? | 08:17 |
| pooky | Jordan_U, it's the Google application directory sync tool. I've already install the openjdk package you suggested after a google result suggested the same, but am still getting the error - ./dirsync-linux.sh: 314: bin/unpack200: not found | 08:19 |
| mobodo | is there a difference between the repositories that list amd64 and x64? or are the packages the same? | 08:20 |
| _Neytiri_ | can i reinstall my OS without ruining my software raided drives, when the OS was not origionally installed on them? | 08:20 |
| Jordan_U | pooky: Can you pastebin that script and the output of "which unpack200"? | 08:21 |
| mobodo | _Neytiri_: what do you mean? | 08:21 |
| Erik500002 | ActionParsnip: I just get AR5008 wireless network adapter | 08:21 |
| pooky | Jordan_U, I could not paste the script as it's 30M or so, however, I'm trekking through it now, as I can see unpack200 is available on my system. It's only called in one instance, which is making me consider just removing the bin/ portion of the command | 08:22 |

| pooky | Jordan - in fact yes, it is only called the once, but with that bin/ in front of it for some reason | 08:22 |
| Jordan_U | pooky: Is there a bin directory in the same directory as the script? | 08:23 |
| _Neytiri_ | no i mean i have several kraided drives and i cant loose the data on them but i need to reinstall the os | 08:23 |

| tanath | shockrates, delete the content of the page? | 08:39 |
| shockrates | tanath: the page has a table in it and i want to delete the whole page | 08:39 |
| tanath | shockrates, delete the table, and anything else remaining... | 08:39 |
| shockrates | tanath: it kind of continue from the previous page | 08:40 |
| shockrates | i cant delete the table | 08:40 |

| tanath | anyone else have sound go kaput recently? | 08:42 |
| shockrates | tanath: i made a big table that covers 2 pages, and i cant delete tha last page | 08:42 |
| tanath | shockrates, well if the table is overflowing 'cause it won't fit the previous page, then how _could_ you? | 08:43 |
| shockrates | tanath: it fits | 08:43 |
| tanath | shockrates, if you make the table smaller so that it doesn't overflow then you won't have the following page | 08:43 |
| shockrates | tanath: its more like a big rectangle | 08:43 |
| tanath | maybe there's a blank line after the table | 08:43 |
| shockrates | not a table actualy | 08:43 |

| minimec | avinashhm: You are not talking about 'udev', but UUID... I guess. The UUID for /dev/sdb1 is not complete... --> UUID="F56D-DD69" Should be something like this --> UUID="f678d8c4-8b78-48ef-a78b-7d3b04ada441". | 08:51 |
| minimec | avinashhm: In the end, you don't need UUID. You can still use the traditional entry syntax... | 08:52 |

| sl1ck | ikonia: /var/run/dhcp-server# Can't create PID file /var/run/dhcpd.pid: Permission denied | 09:15 |
| ikonia | sl1ck: ok what is the exact command you are using to start the dhcpd server, and I mean exact | 09:16 |
| minimec | sl1ck: you have to start server with 'sudo'. If there is a (old) dhcpd.pid file, try to rename that once and start again | 09:16 |
| sl1ck | yes, I have sudo'ed | 09:16 |
| ikonia | sl1ck: sudoed ? how / | 09:16 |
| sl1ck | ikonia: dhcpd eth1 | 09:16 |
| sl1ck | sudo -i | 09:16 |
| sl1ck | i have 'root' privs. | 09:16 |
| ikonia | sl1ck: why are you not using the init script ? | 09:16 |
| sl1ck | will there be difference ? | 09:17 |
| sl1ck | whats the exact patch? /etc/init.d/ ,,, ? | 09:17 |

| sl1ck | apt-get | 09:19 |
| ikonia | sl1ck: what package ? | 09:19 |
| sl1ck | ii isc-dhcp-server 4.1.1-P1-15ubuntu9 ISC DHCP server for automatic IP address assignment | 09:20 |
| sl1ck | rc dhcp3-server 4.1.1-P1-15ubuntu9 ISC DHCP server (transitional package) | 09:20 |
| ikonia | sl1ck: ok, so that means it's got the right package, that's a good start | 09:20 |
| sl1ck | seems I have both 3 and 4... or not | 09:20 |
| ikonia | sl1ck: same package | 09:21 |

| ikonia | just a meta package | 09:21 |
| ikonia | sl1ck: need to find the correct init script for it | 09:21 |
| ikonia | sl1ck: the init script does a few things such as specify the config file, the environment, the pid file etc etc etc, so if possible it's best to use it | 09:21 |
| sl1ck | where's init script for this DHCP server? | 09:21 |
| ikonia | sl1ck: I don't have an ubuntu box to hand to tell you, but I would have expected it to be dhcp or dchp, dhcp-server, something like that | 09:22 |

| yellowhead | @ikonia - i have tried most of the stuff one can get from google.. :P | 10:19 |
| jrt4 | ikonia, I didn't do anything unusual. This is just straight from the default install. | 10:19 |
| ikonia | yellowhead: I'm not getting this from google, have you tried setting http_proxy ? | 10:20 |
| ikonia | jrt4: should work then | 10:20 |
| odix | hmm, now i can connect from that box to another lan, but incoming is not working | 10:20 |
| odix | grrr | 10:20 |
| ikonia | odix: incoming ? | 10:20 |
| yellowhead | @ikonia - yes. isn't it using the export command? or is there some other way of doing so? | 10:20 |
| rsavu | no experience with AIC7902 and SCSI disks with ubuntu? | 10:20 |
| odix | yes, im trying to ssh into it | 10:21 |
| jrt4 | ikonia, What can I do to figure out what is wrong? | 10:21 |
| odix | i can ssh out to another lan, but not in | 10:21 |
| ikonia | odix: that's probably routing - contact your network admin | 10:21 |
| odix | freaking pain in the ass 12 2 tb server =) | 10:21 |
| odix | thats me | 10:21 |
| odix | ;p | 10:21 |
| ikonia | odix: then you should know how to debug this | 10:21 |
| odix | i slowly am | 10:21 |
| ikonia | jrt4: find the flash lib on the file system | 10:21 |
| ikonia | odix: ok - then we don't need a running commentary in this channel please. | 10:21 |
| jrt4 | ikonia, Do I delete it when I find it? | 10:22 |
| yellowhead | @ikonia - well not quite using export.. but i just tried http_proxy="http://myproxy:port" still no luck | 10:22 |
| webstar | phonegap | 10:22 |
| jrt4 | (and then try to reinstall) | 10:22 |
| odix | its not commentary its asking for help | 10:22 |
| odix | thank you | 10:22 |
| ikonia | jrt4: no - just see where it is | 10:22 |
| gionnico | hi | 10:22 |
| ikonia | odix: ok - you're asking for network help - we don't support that here | 10:22 |
| odix | oh..sorry | 10:22 |
| gionnico | how much swap should i use for a 3GB ram 64 bit system? | 10:22 |
| Soothsayer | gionnico, at least 3 GB | 10:22 |
| ikonia | gionnico: up to you, depends if you want to use functionality such as hibernation | 10:23 |
| gionnico | do i need >3gb if i want to hibernate? is hibernation supported by default? | 10:23 |
| ikonia | gionnico: if you want to use hibernate, I'd assign 5GB personally. | 10:23 |
| Soothsayer | gionnico, I used this yesterday https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq#How do I add more swap? and setup a swap partition + got hibernation working | 10:23 |
| Soothsayer | gionnico, I have like 4 gb RAM, but I created a swap of 10 GB as I plan to add RAM upto 8 gb in the future | 10:24 |
| Soothsayer | ok, there's no better way to ask this. I'm fedup of the taskbar / unity sidebar capabilities in Ubuntu.. All I want is the *exact* same capability like Windows 7 | 10:24 |
| Soothsayer | And preferably with Dual Monitor support. Anyway to do achieve this ? | 10:25 |
| ikonia | Soothsayer: you're not going to get a windows layout with unity, so you may as well accept that now | 10:25 |
| jrt4 | ikonia, Ahh -- I figured it out, sort of. I just tried to install using apt-get from command line (after purging) and what is happening is that the download is failing, but the package is still thinking its installed. | 10:25 |
| ikonia | jrt4: excellent find, well done | 10:25 |
| jrt4 | ikonia, should that be filed as a bug? shouldn't it fail to install the package if the download fails | 10:25 |
| Soothsayer | ikonia, I can just switch to the gnome classic maybe. | 10:25 |
| ikonia | jrt4: why is it failing, does it give an error ? | 10:25 |
| ikonia | Soothsayer: that will be gone in the next release. | 10:25 |
| Soothsayer | My biggest issue is that if I have two windows of say gedit open.. and I click on the gedit icon in the unity sidebar, BOTH the windows of gedit open! | 10:26 |
| slacker- | hi | 10:26 |
| jrt4 | ikonia, 404 not found. I'll probably just download the package from adobe | 10:26 |
| ikonia | jrt4: then yes, there probably is already a bug if they have moved/changed the package | 10:26 |
| gionnico | is it suspend2 that support hibernation? is it installed by default? | 10:26 |
| qin | Soothsayer: Whats is wrong with gedit's tabs? | 10:27 |
| cynicaloptimist | Can anyone advice on getting my DVD-writer working? I keep getting errors that say something like this: | 10:27 |
| cynicaloptimist | message= "SCSI error on write(0,16): [3 73 03] Power calibration area error" | 10:27 |
| Soothsayer | qin, I was using gedit as an example. | 10:28 |
| slacker- | I'm noticing a constant 13kbps down and 35kbps upload traffic from my 11.04 when idle. Is that expected? | 10:28 |
| yellowhead | sudo apt-get update | 10:29 |

| yellowhead | HELP! PLEASE.. | 10:29 |
| FloodBot1 | yellowhead: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 10:29 |
| head_victim | slacker-: that is totally dependant on what you're running | 10:29 |
| ikonia | slacker-: there is some call home features, such as things like update manager | 10:29 |
| qin | slacker-: iftop to see what traffic it is, or netstat -tuep, or ngrep | 10:29 |
| ikonia | yellowhead: have you set the http_proxy environment varible ? | 10:29 |
| yellowhead | @ikonia - how/where do i set that? | 10:29 |
| ikonia | yellowhead: it's an environment varible, http_proxy=http://servername:port | 10:30 |
| slacker- | I'm assuming most of the upload is google scanning my webserver | 10:30 |
| yellowhead | @ikonia - yes i did.. still had the same issue | 10:30 |
| ikonia | yellowhead: ok, what is your proxy IP address ? | 10:30 |
| MuNk` | is there a way to reset the Unity sidebar and top bars? they keep looking up on me, never hiding when they should or getting stuck on one program | 10:31 |
| slacker- | I'm not running any extra services that download data, other than mythvideo, which I have just moved from cron.hourly to cron.daily, see if that made a difference tomorrow | 10:31 |
| envygeeks | slacker: if google is bogging down your server visit google webmaster tools and set google bot limits | 10:31 |
| ikonia | slacker-: why are you telling us this ? it's your box | 10:31 |
| truepurple | Is there a way to make windows browser links work under linux? | 10:31 |
| slacker- | envygeeks: I don't pay for uploads, so I don't really care | 10:31 |
| ikonia | truepurple: windows browser links ? | 10:31 |
| envygeeks | I assume he means shortcut links that open a browser (like from the desktop) | 10:32 |
| slacker- | ikonia: i'm trying to find out if a 'standard' download behaviour is known for an idle ubuntu box | 10:32 |
| truepurple | You know when you pull a web address into a folder or desktop, it creates a icon equal to a link to that page | 10:32 |
| qin | truepurple: Hm, what links? .url? | 10:32 |
| truepurple | But links made from windows don't work | 10:32 |
| ikonia | slacker-: it really depends on your machine and what you're running, as explained | 10:32 |
| truepurple | Yes, url | 10:32 |
| truepurple | So how do I get linux to use windows url links? | 10:33 |
| slacker- | ikonia: I know, that's why i'm asking for numbers for a standard box, not my own | 10:33 |
| qin | truepurple: Yes, somehow, with grep and tr, .url are text files with web address | 10:33 |
| truepurple | yeah, thats annoying | 10:33 |
| slacker- | hm, iftop is pretty ugly in a terminal | 10:34 |
| envygeeks | truepurple: I believe in the create new menu in Nautilus there should be a "location" that lets you add URL's | 10:34 |
| truepurple | I want to use existing urls | 10:34 |
| truepurple | I saved many a link under windows, I want to just click on them and open a webpage like with windows | 10:34 |
| envygeeks | truepurple: yeah, that's never going to work, Linux is not windows and you can't expect Linux to accept windows shortcuts | 10:35 |
| truepurple | The nature of windows shortcuts are so simple, linux can't manage something that simple? How absurd | 10:35 |
| envygeeks | truepurple: why should they is the question | 10:36 |
| truepurple | Because its convienant to some users | 10:36 |
| qin | truepurple: you can make script like: opera `grep URL file.url | tr -d 3` | 10:36 |
| phux | truepurple: add bookmarks to opera,firefox or chromium and fuzzysearch them with gnome do | 10:36 |
| yellowhead | seriously this sucks! | 10:36 |
| truepurple | I don't know how to do any of that, and that doesn't necessarily make it the better solution | 10:36 |
| qin | Sweet. | 10:37 |
| envygeeks | Firefox sync too, it's encrypted on your computer and then stored on the cloud, that's what I use when I have to roam to a windows machine and consult | 10:37 |
| MoL0ToV | hi to all, i have a problem with raid, one disk is damaged so i removed it, but the system don't boot. grub menu is not shower, the system load something from hard disk for just 1ms then reboots | 10:37 |
| truepurple | Why should linux be able to manage web links? Because they are so very simple | 10:37 |
| yellowhead | my proxy works fine on another PC here, with same settings and same ubuntu version (lucid)! | 10:37 |
| yellowhead | :( | 10:37 |
| envygeeks | truepruple: shortcuts are not web links, they are shortcuts, they are Windows shortcuts | 10:37 |
| MoL0ToV | is software raid | 10:37 |
| envygeeks | does Windows support symbolic links from Linux? | 10:38 |
| truepurple | envygeeks: I don't care about the terminology, what is important is getting this to work | 10:38 |
| phux | truepurple: opening urls from your harddisk is pretty strange in my opinion...urls belong to the web, like your browser. your filebrowser should work with files. | 10:38 |
| movan2011 | truepurple: The real question is why would anyone want tens on the same icon with just textual names to differentiate them cluttering their desktop. I hated windows links back in the day and sure as hell wouldn't want them back in Linux. Just open your browser and put links in your bookmarks toolbar that's what it's there for. | 10:38 |
| jjovereats | envygeeks, No. | 10:38 |
| envygeeks | jjovereats: that was a question to dispute truepurple not an actual question more rhetorical :P | 10:39 |
| cynicaloptimist | truepurple: it would be a nice feature, but barely anyone has ever wanted it, so no-one's taken the time to code it. Also, if every 'nice feature' was included then ubuntu would never fit on the disk. The main reason tht people haven't neeed this feature is that barely anyone saves their links that way. Most people just record their favourite links in the bookmarks option of firefox or internet explorer. | 10:39 |
| truepurple | Bookmarks are harder to move around from one browser to another, and if you have alot of them it becomes difficultto manage | 10:39 |
| qin | truepurple: Yeah..sure. | 10:39 |
| cynicaloptimist | If that's how you find it, then your experiences are perfectly valid. No-one here has the right to tell you that they're not. | 10:40 |
| wrek-gar | is there a way to either stop or restart mysql services? | 10:40 |
| truepurple | Well the demand might be low, but the difficulty should be pretty low too | 10:40 |
| tonyyarusso | wrek-gar: the `service` command | 10:40 |
| cynicaloptimist | truepurple: But sadly, it's a rare viewpoint. So no-one else has taken the time to make it possible for you. | 10:40 |
| tonyyarusso | envygeeks: No, Windows does not support Linux filesystems or their features. | 10:40 |
| movan2011 | truepurple: I'm guessing yyou don't bother looking for the import options in web browsers then. Most modern browsers can import bookmarks between them quite efficiently. | 10:40 |
| wrek-gar | tonyyarusso: elaborate plz | 10:41 |
| truepurple | I tried import, its messy, and can't be used to go from one PC to another | 10:41 |
| wrek-gar | tonyyarusso: "service mysql restart" ? | 10:41 |
| ohir | truepurple: most browsers let you export your bookmarks in html form | 10:41 |
| phux | truepurple: wrong! | 10:41 |
| envygeeks | tonyyarusso: please refer to my answer that my question was a dispute, not an actual question | 10:41 |
| qin | truepurple: Try: cat your_any_url_file.url | grep ^URL | cut -c 5 | 10:41 |
| truepurple | And I will want to be able to access these links under both linux and windows, and I don't think the OS will nicely share a browser | 10:41 |
| ohir | truepurple: "desktop links" are yet more harder to move | 10:41 |
| truepurple | Not really, you create folder trees, and all within one master folder | 10:42 |
| qin | truepurple: Just trying to help you.... | 10:42 |
| tonyyarusso | wrek-gar: yup | 10:42 |
| ohir | truepurple: also FF site lets you manage your bookmarks online and automagically sync it between all your FF instances | 10:42 |
| tonyyarusso | envygeeks: yeah, just noticed that. | 10:42 |
| tonyyarusso | truepurple: You can happily share Firefox profile data between Windows and Ubuntu. | 10:43 |
| tonyyarusso | truepurple: check out XMarks. | 10:43 |
| envygeeks | truepurple: as I said, go look at mozilla weave https://services.mozilla.com/ it encrypts your sync on your computer (including tabs, bookmarks, history, settings and all that jazz) and then syncs it to any platform (including your mobile) | 10:43 |
| truepurple | Ok second issue, when I click on a picture, it doesn't show a full sized picture, it shrinks the picture, and furthermore the sides to not fill the screen, so with every picture I open, I got to click on its tab (doesn't go right to the picture except for the first), expand full, true size, for every single one of them | 10:43 |
| truepurple | Its a real pain in the ass to look through pictures under linux | 10:44 |
| nathic | hey , i'm using python to analyze an apache log, and I use geoIP to find out the ip location. does anybody of you know how this is with copyright informations as I don't have any idea how to mention their license in my python script | 10:45 |
| truepurple | and unlike windows that you can go from one picture to another, linux creates a new window for each picture | 10:45 |
| movan2011 | truepurple: I think you're just trolling. There's lots of ways you can manage pictures in linux and you don't define how you're viewing them or anything. You're setting yourself up as flamebait imho. | 10:45 |
| envygeeks | Does anybody know if the opensource radeon driver finally supports setting fan speed or do I still have to use ati drivers? | 10:45 |
| truepurple | movan2011: How very rude, if you can help,then do so, if you can't, stuff it. | 10:46 |
| qin | truepurple: feh -ZF /folder/with/pictures/* | 10:46 |
| slacker- | qin: thanks for suggesting iftop. much easier than trying to make sense from the iptables logfile :) | 10:46 |
| ohir | truepurple: its not true. Read the text under help menu of the default viewer | 10:46 |
| movan2011 | truepurple: You don't want to accept help except in a view narrow-minded manner so why should people bother? | 10:46 |
| qin | truepurple: please /join #IWANNATROLL | 10:46 |
| envygeeks | nathic: Most of the time mentioning that your script is a fork of theirs and using the same license does the trick, if it just uses a single part, then comment on that part their license and what not | 10:46 |
| truepurple | ohir: What is not true? | 10:46 |
| phux | qin: do you really think 1. he knows what you mean, 2. he is willling to do it that way :D | 10:47 |
| AdvoWork | ive just seen this in my daemon.log: dnsmasq[3210]: forwarding table overflow: check for server loops. any suggestions? | 10:47 |
| ohir | truepurple: your stetements about default pictures viewer | 10:47 |
| cynicaloptimist | Anyways, can anyone help me get my DVD writer working? It reads but it won't write at all. Complains of a "SCSI error on write(0,16): [3 73 03] Power calibration area error" | 10:47 |
| phux | truepurple: software center -> search for image viewer -> install some and see which you like | 10:47 |
| envygeeks | cynicaloptimist: what's the make and model? | 10:47 |
| qin | phux: No, but I can vent off before commiting ignore... | 10:47 |
| ohir | truepurple: it supports fullscreen/slideshow and has big next/previous buttons right at your eyes | 10:48 |
| ohir | truepurple: so I assume you are not used ubuntu nor you're using it now. go away | 10:48 |
| truepurple | ohir: How do I get it to show pictures at true size and with the sides expanded fully for default? | 10:48 |
| cynicaloptimist | envygeeks: I didn't keep the documentation, and it doesn't say on the front panel. | 10:49 |
| gry | cynicaloptimist: try burning at a very slow speed | 10:49 |
| cynicaloptimist | gry: it's worth a shot | 10:49 |
| ohir | truepurple: its a system viewer, its not supposed at "default truesize". It defaults to "show me whole picture" as windows and mac system previews do too. | 10:49 |
| BornX | hallo guys | 10:49 |
| casey_ | Hey guys! I need some help with Grub2. It seems that everytime I log into WIndows, I have an important update to install. This update requires a reboot of the system which I do everytime. However, for whatever reason, this seems to break my Grub2 as it tries to load, fails, and then returns to BIOS only to happen again. Any ideas? | 10:50 |
| truepurple | ohir it doesn't default to show me whole picture | 10:50 |
| ohir | truepurple: for other picture managing software go to ubuntu's software center and pick one that suits | 10:50 |
| gry | hi BornX | 10:50 |
| nobitanobi | I've a .sh in /usr/local/bin but when trying to use the command from the bash it doesn't let me. How do I add it to the path of my bash? | 10:50 |
| truepurple | ohir how do I change the defaults with system? | 10:50 |
| gry | casey_, try #grub | 10:50 |
| ohir | truepurple: For me it does. Read helps and manuals. EOT. | 10:51 |
| casey_ | gry: I never seem to find anyone in those sub channels | 10:51 |
| casey_ | but i shall try. | 10:51 |
| envygeeks | casey_: load up the live cd and reinstall grub, Windows updates can overwrite the MBR | 10:51 |
| cynicaloptimist | gry: looks like it's been defailting to slowest speed. | 10:51 |
| gry | cynicaloptimist, get hardware details, please | 10:51 |
| movan2011 | truepurple: If you're using Gnome's viewer go to the View menu and select the Normal size option or hold down the Ctrl key and press 0. | 10:51 |
| casey_ | envygeeks: Unfortunately, thats what i do everytime. But I would like to correct this problem so i can finally install those updates on windows AND reboot to successfully complete them. | 10:51 |
| gry | cynicaloptimist, also do you have the needed amount of disk space available for use to store the tmp files - do you have like 4GB free? | 10:52 |
| envygeeks | casey_: that's never going to happen, that's the nature of Windows, you'll just have to reinstall grub everytime Windows updates, been like that for years and there is no way to stop it | 10:52 |
| truepurple | movan2011: I need it to remember those settings | 10:53 |
| truepurple | How do I get it to default to that? | 10:53 |
| casey_ | envygeeks: Really? Well its not a very good condition considering that everytime i log into windows, it breaks my grub. It seems to me that having windows on my comp is pointless if its always going to break it? | 10:53 |
| nathic | envygeeks, hmm thanks but I somehow still have no idea about what I have to include in my script. geoip has a license on their webpage... but I don't get which information on this site (http://www.maxmind.com/app/sitelicense) i have to copy to my script | 10:53 |
| cynicaloptimist | gry: is there a useful command i can use to interrogate my sytem, and find the name of the product? I don't have any of the original documentation, and the front-panel is very uninformative. And yes, 18.6 Gb of free space. | 10:53 |
| envygeeks | casey_: I guess you could do superblock install of Grub into the partition and use Windows bootloader to boot to the Linux partition that would fix it, but meh too much trouble | 10:53 |
| movan2011 | truepurple: As ovhi mentioned it's a general purpose viewer so it won't default to full zoom. If you want a general picture viewer try installing Gthumb or shotwell which serve the purpose you're looking for. | 10:54 |
| truepurple | And I can't get it so that it defaults to full picture, rather then having it default to the sides pulled in? | 10:55 |
| casey_ | envygeeks: Yeah I dont think that sounds like too much fun. I'm just sick of putting in that dang LiveCD only to type in the two same command line prompts so i can get Ubuntu back. But hey maybe you can solve my only need for going into windows. 1. Is there any program/way to print borderless documents (specifically pictures) in ubuntu? | 10:55 |
| casey_ | gry: tried #grub. Its a ghost town, as I thought it would be lol ;). | 10:56 |
| envygeeks | casey_: F-Spot should be able to do borderless printing, that's what I used to do until I Photoshop CS5 came out and we could use it in Wine now | 10:57 |
| casey_ | envygeeks: So are you saying that you can print in CS5 as well? Because i love photoshop. My biggest problem is printing borderlessly with custom sizes? Any idea on that? | 10:58 |
| === Guest95931 is now known as Shamen | ||
| envygeeks | casey_: Yes, I use Photoshop CS5 on Linux to print and edit my photos all of the photos on my flickr profile were edited in Linux using CS5. I don't know what you mean by Custom size but if you mean paper size that's a matter of the printer driver. | 11:00 |

| shockrates | hey | 11:02 |
| shockrates | where can i find this ./pSX: error while loading shared libraries: libgtkglext-x11-1.0.so.0: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64 | 11:02 |
| shockrates | solve it i mean | 11:03 |
| casey_ | envygeeks: That's exactly what I mean. For example I have some cardstock that is 6.5x10 inches. On default, the options given to me do not fit this size and thus I cannot print borderlessly for this sort of document. Any ideas on how I can solve this? | 11:03 |
| dr_Willis | shockrates: you on a 32 or 64 bit system | 11:03 |
| shockrates | dr_Willis: 64 | 11:04 |
| dr_Willis | shockrates: seems like the error is a 32 vs 64 bit system issue | 11:04 |
| envygeeks | casey_: figure out the PPI, do the math and crop it yourself or ask the driver to crop it F-Spot should be able to crop it to the paper size | 11:04 |
| shockrates | dr_Willis: any proposed fix? | 11:05 |
| dr_Willis | shockrates: compile it yourdelf or find a ppa perhsps | 11:05 |
| casey_ | What is the PPI? Please elaborate on how I would fix this because I would really love to stop having windows break my system. | 11:05 |
| shockrates | kk | 11:05 |
| casey_ | envygeeks: Like lets say for example my 6.5x10 document. Where would I go and how would I fix it with that scenario? | 11:06 |
| bosko | camera is like dettached from my laptop...it shows nothing? | 11:06 |
| envygeeks | casey_: http://www.andrewdaceyphotography.com/articles/dpi/ | 11:06 |
| casey_ | envygeeks: Ok I see what you're saying. So where abouts would I enter the calculated PPI value when printing? Is it only on F-Spot or were you referring to the actual printer setting itsel? | 11:08 |
| casey_ | *F-Stop | 11:09 |
| envygeeks | casey_: it doesn't work like that, once you figure out the PPI you use that to resize the image in pixels to the right dimensions so if you have 1PPI then 1 pixel is 1 inch blah blah blah | 11:10 |

I'm not wanting to resize photos to a different proportion, i'm wanting to have a selection when it comes to print time that will say "Custom" and allow me to punch in "Width=6 inches" and "Length=10 inches" and so on and so forth.

| Tristan3199us1 | dr_Willis: have you any idea what i need to do to connect a usb dvd burner to ubuntu.. i have devices show up in /dev/disk/by-name/... | 11:18 |
| dr_Willis | unzip. unp. mc | 11:18 |
| Tristan3199us1 | it says apple super burner.. it just wont accept any disks into the drive.. | 11:18 |
| dr_Willis | Tristan3199us1: should be just plug and go. | 11:19 |
| bosko | dr_Willis: how to find if webcam has bad connectors | 11:19 |
| cynicaloptimist | Is there anyway i can find out what make/model of DVD writer i have in my machine? A command i can use in the terminal? | 11:19 |
| dr_Willis | plug in check dmesg vommand | 11:19 |
| Tristan3199us1 | what would cause it not to accept any disks.. would that be a hardware issue.. something broken... i have never connected the drive to my laptop until recently.. and it seems to work with the macbook air fine.. | 11:20 |
| dr_Willis | bosko: i hit mine hard and it works for a while.... :) | 11:20 |

| cynicaloptimist | llutz: i'll try it | 11:21 |
| dr_Willis | bosko: i just noticed it working or not wirking from dmesg messahe | 11:21 |
| rethus1 | is there a repository with the newst eclipse for ubuntu? | 11:21 |
| Tristan3199us1 | cynicaloptimist: in /dev/disk/... it mentions every partition and the apple superdrive.. | 11:21 |
| rethus1 | i only have 3.5.2 (galileo) | 11:21 |
| dr_Willis | messages when i moved it around | 11:22 |
| dr_Willis | i never use the webcam so i dont wirry about it | 11:23 |
| Tristan3199us1 | so am i hopeless on this problem... | 11:23 |
| dr_Willis | guess he hit his pc too hard | 11:23 |
| dr_Willis | Tristan3199us1: put in data disk. check dmesg output. try mounting by hand | 11:24 |
| dr_Willis | not a blank disk. | 11:25 |
| jjovereats | Try using data tape. | 11:25 |
| ledjo | I installed xubuntu on my older laptop a week ago, at first I was skeptical 'cause of issues like screensaver that freezes my pc after some time, or not being able to connect to windows 7 desktop using samba, and also issue with mounting my PSP, and few more. After using ubuntu documentation and support, and little googling, I managed to 'repair' all that so now I fell in love with the sys. It is really stable and not as fast as lx | 11:25 |
| ledjo | de, but fast enough. 1000 thumbs up! | 11:25 |
| Tristan3199us1 | its supposed to suck the disk into the drive.. but wont even try to pull it in... | 11:25 |
| dr_Willis | oh a slot loader.. | 11:26 |
| Tristan3199us1 | yep.. | 11:26 |
| Tristan3199us1 | its like the slot has no power when connected to ubuntu.. | 11:26 |
| dr_Willis | check forums and askubuntu.com is all i can suggest Tristan3199us1 | 11:26 |
| Tristan3199us1 | tried that.. this was my last resort.. guess its impossible.. | 11:27 |
| dr_Willis | it may need some werid drivers | 11:27 |
| Tristan3199us1 | i think everything apple needs weird drivers.. just dont know where to look.. | 11:27 |
| hellomrjack | hi, after upgrading to 11.04 all network connections on my laptop have stop working, it seems like both the wireless and wired drivers have broken | 11:28 |
| ledjo | I had to use ndiswrapper for my wireless network... | 11:29 |

| asm89 | hi my colleague is formatting a 3TB harddisk to ext3 | 12:40 |
| asm89 | it's taking very long, is there a way to do a 'quick' format? it's a new drive | 12:40 |
| dr_Willis | why not ext4. :) | 12:41 |
| jatt | it will corrupt your data | 12:41 |
| asm89 | it's for a NAS with a raid array | 12:41 |
| dr_Willis | a new unpartioned drive will take some time | 12:41 |
| buttons | how do I go about finding why the root file system mounted read only on boot | 12:41 |
| asm89 | so there is no way to do a 'quick' format? | 12:41 |
| dr_Willis | buttons: check dmesg output | 12:41 |
| dr_Willis | buttons: if the fs has issues. it can trigger a remount read only failsafe | 12:42 |
| buttons | yeah that is what happened I think | 12:43 |
| dr_Willis | buttons: i see that a lot in here | 12:43 |
| buttons | really? why? | 12:43 |
| dr_Willis | hard drives fail. thats often the firsy sign people see anf come in here asking that ssme q. | 12:44 |
| asm89 | we need to format 4 or 6 drives, so we've just have to sit that out? hm.. | 12:44 |
| asm89 | any estimates on the time it will take? there is no indicator in the disk utility | 12:45 |
| rhin0 | ssd drives work well now | 12:45 |
| dr_Willis | asm89: if its never been fornated befor. it will take some time. you can format more then one at a time | 12:45 |
| dr_Willis | its also scanning as it firmats gor bad blocks i imagine | 12:46 |

| user1 | none to answer?! | 13:15 |
| Pici | user1: I've never seen this issue on any release of Ubuntu. | 13:15 |
| bazhang | user1, sounds like dns issue | 13:16 |

| Azrael91 | what html/css/php editors do u guys use ? | 14:41 |
| gdoteof_home | vim | 14:41 |
| gdoteof_home | gedit | 14:41 |
| Azrael91 | something with come completion ... works faster | 14:41 |
| Azrael91 | some*** | 14:41 |
| gdoteof_home | vim will do code completion | 14:42 |
| gdoteof_home | probably not what you are looking for though | 14:42 |

| gdoteof_home | edbian: does gedit have code completion? | 14:42 |
| Azrael91 | i don't rly understand why vim is so highly rated | 14:42 |
| edbian | gdoteof_home: I think it has some simple closing " and [ and stuff. IDK I get annoyed when my text editor types for me so I don't use that. | 14:43 |
| gislifreyr | vim is just great | 14:43 |
| Nephro | Azrael91, it's very efficient in use if you get a good grip of it | 14:43 |
| gdoteof_home | Azrael91: cus its fast and does everything you could ever want it to do | 14:43 |
| gdoteof_home | Azrael91: has a high learning curve, but it is so highly rated because it's worth it | 14:43 |
| gislifreyr | takes 2 weeks to get the hang of it but after that there's nothing quite like it | 14:43 |

| gdoteof_home | but now i keep getting this initramfs prompt | 14:44 |
| Azrael91 | thanks ... imma try it | 14:44 |
| gdoteof_home | bazhang: should i start over with unetbootin? | 14:44 |
| bazhang | unetbootin.sourceforge.net gdoteof_home | 14:44 |
| gislifreyr | Azrael91: you have to...check out vimcasts.org or vimcasts.comand print out a Vim cheat sheet and you're set | 14:44 |
| bazhang | gdoteof_home, they have a windows version there. worth a try | 14:44 |
| gdoteof_home | bazhang: i did make one already with the instructions on ubuntu.com | 14:45 |
| gdoteof_home | and i have done it before | 14:45 |
| gislifreyr | gdoteof_home: unetbootin is great...never failed for me at least | 14:45 |

| balaji_ | Pici: how to find what are the ports assigned to applications. I installed apache, I want to know what port it is assigned.. like that all apps which uses ports. | 15:03 |
| albech | the normal host resolution order is hosts,bind right? and i use to recall a file called nsswitch from my IRIX days, is that also the way its handled in Ubuntu? | 15:03 |
| faz_ | balaji_, apache isn't "assigned to a port" :) | 15:04 |
| escott | rns, it could be a legal thing, but its more likely just that eog is a viewer. try gimp or imagemagick's convert utility | 15:04 |
| balaji_ | faz_: can you explain bit more. so that i can understand clearly | 15:05 |
| faz_ | also, afaik, there isnt a lean way to just check what services are running against what port w/o just portscanning yourself. it'd be cool if someone corrected me, though | 15:05 |
| kkulhavy | balaji_, netstat? | 15:05 |
| faz_ | balaji_, you know how in httpd.conf or whatever you can define many hosts which can all listen to different ports? that. | 15:05 |
| faz_ | balaji_, im just saying that apache could be listening to many different ports if configured as such | 15:06 |
| kkulhavy | balaji_, also in /etc/services is list of ports assigned to services | 15:06 |
| balaji_ | faz_: fine i didnt changed the default configuration. so i think it will be listening to only one port | 15:06 |
| kkulhavy | balaji_, so for your apache would be 80 then because apache is HTTP | 15:07 |
| proti | anybody got UEFI experience ? any piece of advice to debug a non bootable uefi natty boot disk ? | 15:07 |

| kkulhavy | COOLDOOD, what wireless problem u have? | 15:12 |
| COOLDOOD | my ralink wireless card isn't being detected | 15:13 |
| kkulhavy | morth, never heard that this is possible, but I am not sure | 15:13 |
| escott | morth, that would be a window manager function, im not sure how many window managers support that. the closest i can think of with compiz is its matching rules | 15:13 |
| kkulhavy | COOLDOOD, hm, in dmesg, do you have something written about ralink or wireless? | 15:13 |
| COOLDOOD | just a sec | 15:13 |
| balaji_ | proti: can i change the port number here? | 15:14 |
| escott | morth, look around in ccsm and see if anything seems appropriate | 15:14 |
| faz_ | balaji_, why do you think apache isn't working? if it's because you can't access it from an outside IP, it's quite possible your isp blocks outgoing traffic from port 80 | 15:14 |
| morth | escott & kkulhavy okay thanks. | 15:14 |
| kkulhavy | morth, u welcome | 15:14 |
| COOLDOOD | kkulhavy, i will pm u the paste link | 15:15 |
| kkulhavy | balaji_, I test whether apache is working by telnet 80 from the machine where apache is running | 15:15 |
| kkulhavy | balaji_, telnet localhost 80 | 15:15 |
| balaji_ | faz_: hey apache is working. I just want to know the ports used by applications. Now i am going to install "apache tomcat" there i have to give port which is not used by other. so only asked this query | 15:15 |
| kkulhavy | COOLDOOD, ok | 15:15 |

| morth | everytime i open a program it starts up at 0x0 and it makes it very hard to move, i think it started after i made my terminal a desktop wallpaper.. any idea? | 15:16 |
| newman_ | does it work well with ubuntu 11.04? | 15:16 |
| faz_ | balaji_, like ppl were saying, that's all set in apache's configuration files. best bet is to read the docs on those. ubuntu sets them up rather... uniquely | 15:16 |
| ikonia | newman_: don't use it with 11.04 but 10.04 - fine | 15:17 |
| newman_ | i cant seem to get it to work with my vaio | 15:17 |
| newman_ | backlit turns on with every keystroke | 15:17 |
| newman_ | and that can kill battery | 15:17 |
| newman_ | i'm guessing mac support on ubuntu is better | 15:17 |
| escott | morth, "made my terminal a desktop wallpaper" what do you mean | 15:18 |
| newman_ | but all these new vaio laptops aren't supported | 15:18 |
| morth | escott i made my terminal transparent and it autoruns on boot | 15:18 |
| escott | morth, open your gnome-session-properties and move the terminal to start later in the process. its coming up before your wm | 15:19 |
| morth | escott im using 11.04, how would i actually "MOVE" the terminal to start later, it seems to be alphabetical. | 15:21 |
| COOLDOOD | kkulhavy : i have sent you the link | 15:22 |
| proti | balaji_: what do mean ? the only place to change the port the apacha server is listening is from the ports.conf (in ubuntun and debian). | 15:23 |
| proti | You must modify the LISTEN directive. | 15:23 |
| morth | escott im using 11.04, how would i actually "MOVE" the terminal to start later, it seems to be alphabetical. | 15:25 |

| COOLDOOD | kkulhavy : do i need to do any thing else | 15:26 |
| balaji_ | proti: i am a newbie.. i dont know anything about port configuration etc. let me check ports.conf | 15:27 |
| compdoc | xskydevilx, theres nothign wrong with the 64 bit version | 15:28 |
| xskydevilx | compdoc: There isn't, but since I already downloaded the 32-bit version, why did it start downloading the 64-bit version? | 15:28 |
| compdoc | never tried wubi - maybe it thinks that would work better | 15:29 |
| escott | morth, yeah sorry... that part i don't know. gnome-session-properties used to be useful... you will have to find the files it modifies and hand edit them to make things work. alternately you could replace your terminal with a sleep 5 & gnome-terminal command | 15:29 |
| xskydevilx | compdoc: would it really? the notebook only has 1gb or ram but a 64-bit capable processor (obviously)? | 15:30 |

| mneptok | EzraR: what is the apt command you are issuing to try to install the Flash plugin? | 16:02 |
| EzraR | mneptok: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer | 16:03 |
| mneptok | EzraR: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 16:03 |

| qkeen | mntptok: `apt-cache search flash` then shoose any you want. | 16:04 |
| BluesKaj | mneptok, that doesn't help , especially when theat same usb wifi stick works flwlessly on windows . like my belkin | 16:04 |
| qkeen | how to list all new files package installs? | 16:04 |
| EzraR | mneptok: nonfreee just installs the one im installing | 16:04 |
| mneptok | BluesKaj: "it works on Windows" is not the same as "it works in every OS ever designed by human hands" | 16:05 |
| EzraR | mneptok: http://pastebin.com/wxKYMdKH is what happens | 16:05 |
| mneptok | BluesKaj: this is why i replaced the mini PCI-E 802.11 card in my laptop with an Intel 4965 | 16:05 |
| mneptok | EzraR: did you use tha command i gave you? | 16:05 |
| mneptok | EzraR: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 16:06 |
| BluesKaj | then if you can help COOLDOOD to determine which driver he needs , then maybe there's a tutorial for it , mneptok | 16:06 |
| mneptok | EzraR: the package is "flashplugin-nonfree" and not "flashplugin-installer" | 16:06 |
| EzraR | mneptok: if you look at that package it just installs flashplugin-installer | 16:06 |
| sandstrom | Any recommendations on good wildcard SSL certificates. Mainly concerned about price, though it should still be from a serious company. | 16:06 |
| mneptok | EzraR: yes, and dependency checking may be different. | 16:07 |
| === iqpi is now known as iqpi|afk | ||
| escott | COOLDOOD, run "lsusb" in a terminal and identify the 8 character usb id for your wireless it will be something like 1a2b:3c4d and try google linux 1a2b:3c4d driver and see if you get any hits | 16:07 |
| EzraR | mneptok: http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/flashplugin-nonfree | 16:07 |
| BluesKaj | COOLDOOD, or look at the usb stick and tell us what the make model number is | 16:08 |
| EzraR | mneptok: but if you insist that was the first package i tried to install untill i noticed it was a transitional package | 16:08 |
| mneptok | EzraR: so contact the package maintainer? | 16:10 |
| EzraR | mneptok: yeah i guess so, thnx | 16:11 |

| xgt001 | hello :) hey can anyone suggest me a good battery monitor ? | 16:23 |
| escott | odix, /proc/cpuinfo | 16:24 |
| === denny- is now known as denny | ||
| escott | xgt001, what constitutes good? and for what desktop environment | 16:25 |
| === KindTwo is now known as KindOne | ||
| xgt001 | escott: in the sense , accuracy. gnome default is very inaccurate for my laptop so | 16:25 |
| escott | xgt001, if the accuracy regarding levels is the problem i doubt any would be more accurate. the battery monitor utilities have to rescale the values that come from acpi. it could be those scales are miscalibrated, and you may be able to manually fix the calibration. if the problem is duration just use it more and it will develop a better history | 16:27 |
| xgt001 | escott: the problem is just incorrect duration display, i tried ibam also , says "no APM data available" | 16:28 |
| escott | xgt001, apm is really old i wouldnt trust anything that relies on apm | 16:29 |
| xgt001 | escott: thanks i tried acpitool -B , displays around the same, | 16:29 |
| xgt001 | escott: will brb | 16:29 |
| escott | xgt001, also if you have wide variability in power consumption the system won't be able to get a good estimate | 16:29 |

| genii-around | buttons: sudo lshw | 16:30 |
| escott | buttons, what details? | 16:30 |
| buttons | processor type, name, clock rate, and ram | 16:30 |
| escott | buttons, lshw will give you lots of info. cpuinfo is in /proc/cpuinfo, memory can be found with free -m (for megabytes) or just use gnome-system-monitor | 16:31 |

| beetlejooz | what is the default login for the live cd install of lubuntu? I did the install and now it's prompting me to login but I didn't set those credentials during the install | 16:35 |
| sudipta | is 11.10 alpha 2 out? | 16:36 |
| escott | beetlejooz, the install didn't ask you to setup a user account? | 16:36 |
| beetlejooz | oddly, no | 16:37 |
| escott | sudipta, #ubuntu+1 | 16:37 |
| fede | it's recommended to use ubuntu 64 bits? | 16:37 |
| beetlejooz | should i just redo the install? | 16:37 |
| morth | how do i access the autorun file manually? rather than using the GUI? | 16:37 |
| Neohasreturned | Hi could someone tell me if there is a program I can use to convert MKV to Avi? | 16:37 |
| escott | beetlejooz, you could chroot in and verify the usernames and set the password for the user account. if you are comfortable with a chroot | 16:38 |
| AFD | I'm trying to set up a remote desktop (vnc4server) on Ubuntu 10.04 via ssh | 16:38 |
| AFD | I have vnc4server installed but I'm not sure it's configured properly as I can't access via Vinagre | 16:38 |
| escott | fede, there are different opinions on that, but check the wikipedia page on amd64 to see what you get with 64bits, i would say yes | 16:38 |
| === PythonSnake is now known as Guest8109 | ||
| BluesKaj | Neohasreturned, yes ffmpeg or mencoder | 16:39 |
| Neohasreturned | BluesKaj, Do you know if they give good results? | 16:39 |
| Dr_Willis | AFD: run it.. it will make a .vnc diorectory.. You then kill it.. (vncserver --kill :1) (or -kill :1) then edit the xstartup file in .vnc to run what you want | 16:39 |
| fede | escott, the problem is that I just installed 11.04 64 bits and I'm having performance problems | 16:39 |
| AFD | Dr_Willis: Ok I'll give that a go | 16:39 |
| fede | for exmple, chromium crashes without reason sometimes | 16:40 |
| Dr_Willis | AFD: a read of ghe vnc4server docs would behandy also. the differnt vncservers can differ slighty in how they get configured. | 16:40 |
| === llllllllllllllll is now known as PythonSnake | ||
| BluesKaj | Neohasreturned, I used ffmpeg for a while without problems , if you don't mind researching it's options , it's very flexible | 16:40 |

| techzg | error 'could not resolve hostname for svn'? on a local network - I am using rabbitsvn | 16:40 |
| PythonSnake | Hi everyone | 16:40 |
| escott | fede, is it related to adobe flash? you might try the 64bit flash ppa | 16:41 |
| Neohasreturned | BluesKaj, I am looking to do it as simple as possible I am a noob what it is my tv only plays avi's or mp4 | 16:41 |
| PythonSnake | I get Segmentation fault when opening rekonq or Chomium | 16:41 |
| savid | Can anyone suggest a good screenshot tool that can take a region of the screen, and that can be bound to a keyboard shortcut? | 16:41 |
| escott | fede, and did you mean chromium browser or chromium game? | 16:41 |
| fede | can be that escott, I'm going to try | 16:41 |
| techzg | error 'could not resolve hostname for svn'? on a local network - I am using rabbitsvn | 16:43 |
| PythonSnake | I get Segmentation fault when opening rekonq or Chomium | 16:43 |
| PythonSnake | anyone know how to fix ? | 16:43 |
| escott | PythonSnake, i think thats a bit too broad a question. it might be related to an external plugin (what exactly is rekonq? is that like konquerer?) | 16:44 |
| PythonSnake | escott: it's a browser | 16:45 |
| PythonSnake | not konqueror | 16:45 |
| BluesKaj | Neohasreturned, your tv doesn't play the video , what player are you using in ubuntu to play the videos ? | 16:45 |
| Neohasreturned | BluesKaj, It does I have a usb tv | 16:45 |
| escott | PythonSnake, i would check things like flash. the shared libs between the two browsers should be minimal, but you can check with ldd | 16:46 |
| Neohasreturned | BluesKaj, I use VLC or MPlayer | 16:46 |
| PythonSnake | escott: how | 16:47 |
| Renski | I want a monitoring tool for which I can supply tcp ports and or ips to ping, and alert me if services or servers go down. Can anyone recommend anything? | 16:47 |
| Dr_Willis | I have tvs that can play various avi and other formats from USB atatched hard drives/thumbdrives. :) | 16:47 |
| escott | PythonSnake, i would uninstall the flashplugin though synaptic to start | 16:48 |
| Dr_Willis | But thats not really ubuntu related Neohasreturned :) | 16:48 |
| fede | escott: It was flash | 16:48 |
| Neohasreturned | Dr_Willis, Good afternoon didn't see you there lol | 16:48 |
| BluesKaj | vlc should play,videos , but you are talking about a tv tuner , right Neohasreturned , then you need a tv tuner driver to make that work , like tvtime | 16:48 |
| fede | should I uninstall anything now | 16:48 |
| fede | ? | 16:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Neohasreturned: just got here from work.. about ready to leave. | 16:48 |
| PythonSnake | Hi Neohasreturned | 16:48 |
| escott | Renski, there is a very popular on the tip of my tongue you may also ask in #ubuntu-server | 16:48 |
| PythonSnake | Are you marck ? | 16:48 |
| Neohasreturned | PythonSnake, Nope lol | 16:48 |
| escott | Renski, nagios | 16:49 |
| PythonSnake | Neohasreturned: lol | 16:49 |
| Neohasreturned | PythonSnake, I'm dean lol | 16:49 |
| PythonSnake | oh | 16:49 |
| PythonSnake | yeah forgot | 16:49 |
| PythonSnake | lol | 16:49 |
| Renski | escott: thanks, I'll look into it | 16:49 |
| escott | fede, not sure what exactly you have done so far, but i don't think you need to uninstall anything, just use the ppa | 16:50 |
| Neohasreturned | PythonSnake, It's ok lol | 16:50 |
| fede | I just installed 64 from the ppa | 16:51 |
| sudipta | <savid>compiz can do that...prees and hold super and left click | 16:51 |
| fede | now the problem seams to be fixed | 16:51 |
| Neohasreturned | Is anyone familiar with winff? | 16:51 |
| fede | Anything else I should know about 64 bits? | 16:51 |
| BluesKaj | Neohasreturned, neber heard of a usb tv ...I've heard of usb tv tuners , I have one myself | 16:52 |
| BluesKaj | never | 16:52 |
| Neohasreturned | BluesKaj, I have a samsung lcd tv most have usb media players installed now | 16:52 |
| Dr_Willis | BluesKaj: i have a TV that can play video files from a USB flash drive. or hd.. it can even use DLNA over the network. | 16:52 |
| escott | fede, these days most stuff is native 64bit, there a few things (usually proprietary) where they haven't made the switch/aren't willing to support two architectures. thats where most of your troubles will lie | 16:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Neohasreturned: so whats the issue with it? | 16:53 |
| Dr_Willis | wife broke the USB port on ours. :( snapped a usb conector off in it. | 16:53 |

| Dr_Willis | Skype is aparently having issues on windows lately. I hear.. | 16:54 |
| Neohasreturned | Dr_Willis, I am trying to convert mkv to avi or mp4 but not sure what to use | 16:54 |
| Guest65680 | where is the gdamned settings tab in this god forsaken unity BS | 16:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Neohasreturned: winff, or arista | 16:54 |
| fede | microsoft === trouble | 16:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Neohasreturned: i convert mine to 'android' format - and the tv can play them here, | 16:54 |
| Neohasreturned | Dr_Willis, Which is the easiest? | 16:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Neohasreturned: i just happened to be converting stuff for the phone. and saw the tc can play them. | 16:55 |
| escott | Guest65680, systems settings or unity settings? | 16:55 |
| Guest65680 | system settings, i need swedish layout, escott | 16:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Neohasreturned: default winff in ubuntu diosetn have the android preset. but i find its inerface easier to use then arists.. arista is newer however. | 16:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Neohasreturned: so try them both | 16:55 |
| fede | on the spanish chat somebody says i¡I should install the "flashplugin-installer" | 16:55 |
| BluesKaj | Dr_Willis, yeah i have a plasma tv with hdmi and a usb etc, bnut the usb is for pics etc , don't think it accepts a video signal | 16:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Arista has auto-updateing of presets. | 16:55 |
| escott | Guest65680, go click on the ubuntu icon (upper left) and they type keyboard | 16:55 |
| Dr_Willis | winff needs that feature badly. | 16:55 |
| fede | what do you think? | 16:55 |
| Dr_Willis | winff uses ffmpeg. not sure what Arista uses... gotta run.. bbl | 16:56 |
| Neohasreturned | I have installed winff do I need to install any codecs? | 16:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | Neohasreturned, if you're interested in creating MP4 files check out Handbrake (not in repo), I don't think Ubuntu's ffmpeg can produce MP4 due to AAC license issue | 16:56 |
| Neohasreturned | ZykoticK9, I don't mind converting to avi just can't use mkv | 16:56 |
| escott | fede, can't tell if you are talking to me or not. if you are please type my nick first. if flash is working with the ppa i would leave it. not sure what the installer does | 16:57 |
| Guest65680 | escott, thank you so much......even though it was a stupid question you answered it with grace | 16:57 |
| Guest65680 | thanks again | 16:57 |

| escott | mun, how to create the partitions or how to run fsck? and how comfortable are you with command line/how well do you know what you are doing? | 17:15 |
| odix | i accidentally thought /dev/sda5 was my flash and did a cp mysshkey /dev/sda5 and my system progressively shutdown and shutoff | 17:15 |
| odix | now i get grub rescue> at boot | 17:15 |
| odix | what can i do ? | 17:15 |
| yellowhead | synaptic/ubuntu software center/apt-get not working, but web browser, pidgin, etc are working | 17:15 |
| escott | odix, good news is the file you copied is hopefully small | 17:15 |
| odix | it is | 17:16 |
| odix | what can i do | 17:16 |
| escott | odix, you need to boot the livecd, and run fsck on /dev/sda5, hopefully it switches to the backup superblock and everything is good | 17:16 |
| odix | should i get ubuntu rescue ? | 17:16 |
| adubz | egrep 'string1|string2'string3' /pathtologfiles/*.log <--- so this command will grep said directory only log files for string1, string2, and string3 | 17:16 |
| odix | remix cd ? | 17:17 |
| escott | odix, and be careful when running things as root. just get your install cd, and boot it (but instead of installing go to "try ubuntu" | 17:17 |
| mun | escott, creating the partition. i'm quite comfortable with command line. | 17:17 |
| dankest | I'm trying to install php5 on my server, and I'm getting 404 errors for some of the aptitude installation files. What can I do? 10.04. | 17:17 |
| escott | mun, well first thing I would recommend is to use dd to create a backup of the disk image, just in case your efforts fail | 17:17 |
| balaji_ | i did lamp installation. i have mysql-server installed as in synaptic. Is this mysql-server is same as apache server? or is it used for some other purpose? | 17:18 |
| mun | escott, ok | 17:18 |
| odix | i cant believe it even let me copy it if it was going to do that | 17:18 |
| odix | and i wasnt root | 17:18 |
| escott | mun, then identify the start and end blocks of the partition that testdisk found, and use parted or gparted to create a partition that exactly matches those start and end locations, i would probably recommend using parted over gparted because there will be no risk that the tool will format the partititon | 17:19 |

| escott | odix, you had to have been | 17:19 |
| yellowhead | synaptic/ubuntu software center/apt-get not working, but web browser, pidgin, etc are working | 17:19 |
| mun | escott, would i need fdisk? | 17:19 |
| escott | odix, or you did something like run chmod on /dev/sda5 | 17:19 |
| escott | mun, that would be the next step. after creating the partition see if fsck can identify the structure and recover the partition. just be very careful that you have the right geometry for the partition. | 17:20 |
| mun | escott, how do i ensure i have the right geometry for the partition? | 17:21 |

| Daniel | Good Morning | 17:27 |
| Daniel | Can I get assistance here? | 17:28 |
| mipo | hi | 17:28 |
| Daniel | hello | 17:28 |
| sladen | Daniel: it depends. But it helps if you ask the question first :-) | 17:29 |
| mipo | how to run adobe flash in ubuntu? | 17:29 |
| Daniel | ok | 17:29 |
| PythonSnake | !ask | Daniel | 17:29 |
| ubottu | Daniel: 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. :-) | 17:29 |
| PythonSnake | !flash | 17:29 |
| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 17:29 |
| PythonSnake | !flash | mipo | 17:29 |
| ubottu | mipo: please see above | 17:29 |
| sladen | Daniel: if it's a GIS-specific question (rather than an Ubuntu one) it's more likely that you'll find the specialist knowledge on the Grass-Gis mailing list, as not everyone here will have specialist knowledge of GIS systems | 17:29 |
| maxx640 | i asked the question not daniel | 17:30 |
| mipo | PythonSnake , ubottu , Not flash player!! Adobe flash! | 17:30 |
| maxx640 | it's just i w ould like to know how to update menu list | 17:30 |

| yellowhead | @ZykoticK9: yes i do.. and i have set the environment variables to reflect that | 17:30 |
| maxx640 | the command in terminal | 17:30 |
| sladen | maxx640: has it appeared in a different menu. | 17:31 |
| yellowhead | @ZykoticK9: i know the proxy works since i have two PCs running lucid, and on the one PC, it updates perfectly | 17:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | yellowhead, sorry - i have no idea how to set apt to use a proxy - good luck. | 17:31 |
| sladen | maxx640: if you press the <Super> (<Windows>) key under Unity and type 'grass' or 'gis', does it appear? | 17:32 |
| maxx640 | sladen: i checked all the sub menus but no trace of grass. It should appear in science with qgis | 17:32 |

| armundle | @<ZykoticK9> : How do I go to that. (Kindly excuse me as I am new to IRC) | 17:40 |
| llutz | Ibyss: 0.0.0.0:8888 means it listens on all interfaces/IPs available. configure portforwarding in your router to access it from WAN | 17:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | armundle, /join ##c++ --- or /join #c++ works as well | 17:41 |

But when it comes to installing it, the installer doesn't allow me argueing that I don't have enough space. As if it is thinking that I'm trying to installl Ubuntu on the same pendrive.

| hoopyfreud | *drivers | 17:45 |
| ZykoticK9 | hoopyfreud, ignore the message - IF your drivers are working | 17:46 |
| cyperbg | guys can anyone help with compiling and installing sensors-applet | 17:46 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | hoopyfreud: good question, ubuntu uses a generic driver for your nVidia card. what it's saying is that it can but isn't using the nVidia drivers | 17:47 |
| hoopyfreud | how do I make it use nvidia drivers then? | 17:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | THIS_IS_INSANE, actually the "enabled but not in use" seems to be a common bug | 17:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | hoopyfreud, does nvidia-settings say it's using nvidia driver? | 17:48 |

| ZykoticK9 | dean, have you partitioned you system or are you using one big partition? How much space do you have "df -h"? | 17:54 |
| Ibyss | When I can't assign my outside ip, is there a file I'm forgetting to configure or something? o.o | 17:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | Ibyss, if you are using a router you need to setup port forwarding | 17:55 |
| Ibyss | My ports are forward. | 17:55 |
| codex84 | program to shrink iso file? | 17:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | Ibyss, if you are using a router you DO NOT want to set you machine to an external IP address! | 17:56 |
| tucemiux | How do you install drivers for a usb drive? It used to work before but now on 11.04 it's broken, the device shows up in lsusb but the drivers dont get installed | 17:56 |
| dean | ZykoticK9, No I have about 43gb spare | 17:56 |
| sarkis | hey guys when im updating 11.04 with apt-get upgrade it says 4 packages were held back?? | 17:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | dean, and only one partition? | 17:56 |
| dean | ZykoticK9, Yeah | 17:56 |
| Ibyss | ZykoticK9, Why not? I want to show my friend the websites I'm hsoting on my computer. | 17:56 |
| Ibyss | "The easy way" :9 | 17:56 |
| sarkis | he following packages have been kept back: libsyncdaemon-1.0-1 python-ubuntuone-client ubuntuone-client ubuntuone-client-gnome | 17:56 |
| sarkis | why is this? | 17:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | dean, sorry - i have no idea then. | 17:56 |
| dean | ZykoticK9, Could it be a codec issue? | 17:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | Ibyss, networking doesn't work that way - you need port forwarding | 17:57 |
| keithx | hi | 17:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | dean, ? i doubt it, but don't know for sure. | 17:57 |
| dean | ZykoticK9, Could it be where it is being saved to? | 17:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | Ibyss, if you have a firewall on your machine - that could be an issue as well. | 17:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | dean, possibly? | 17:58 |
| Ibyss | ZykoticK9, but i did that though. It's port forward. My firewall is OFF. | 17:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | Ibyss, then it "should" work | 17:58 |
| dean | ZykoticK9, Not sure what I am doing wrong then | 17:58 |
| Ibyss | Port checking website says so. It knows when apache is up. I know when apache is down. | 17:58 |
| Ibyss | it knows when it's down* | 17:58 |
| llutz | Ibyss: check apache-logs /var/log/.... | 17:58 |
| kjxl9 | hey | 17:59 |
| Ibyss | I was in my logs even, nothing useful shows in there. | 17:59 |
| escott | mun, you just need to be certain the partition layout testdisk gives you is correct (or have a backup disk image) | 17:59 |
| astory_ | are there docs somewhere on how ubuntu accompilshes the installation of extra firefox plugins on install? | 17:59 |
| solayagim | Ibyss, what kind of ip using? Dynamic or Static | 18:00 |
| Ibyss | It's static. | 18:00 |
| solayagim | did you provide your ip on apache conf file? | 18:00 |
| Ibyss | Yes. I did that. | 18:01 |
| solayagim | you can not get an outside ip without some configuration | 18:01 |
| solayagim | all right | 18:01 |
| Ibyss | I also tried *, I'm getting nothing. | 18:01 |
| mun | escott, as in the Start/End numbers returned by Testdisk? | 18:01 |
| escott | mun, yes | 18:01 |
| mun | escott, ok. i hope they are correct. they have to be correct in order for testdisk to return me the right files, right? | 18:01 |
| solayagim | Ibyss, there are some docs on the net, named "perfect server setup" | 18:02 |
| escott | mun, i cant really advise you of their correctness which is why i suggest making a backup disk image with dd | 18:02 |
| solayagim | i recommend you read it and apply it step by step | 18:02 |
| mun | escott, ok i've done that. | 18:02 |
| mun | escott, i actually already have 4 primary partitions, according to gparted | 18:03 |
| escott | mun, since you have the backup image the worst case is you restore the backup | 18:03 |
| Poindexter_ | Hey guys I have been sudo apt-get update'ing for a while is it advisable to sudo apt-get upgrade and will that change things for the worse? | 18:03 |
| Pici | Poindexter_: apt-get updating doesn't actually update any packages. | 18:03 |
| Poindexter_ | I did it on another box and it seems to work OK. | 18:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | Poindexter_, "sudo apt-get update" updates the database NOT your system | 18:03 |
| keithx | why? | 18:04 |
| keithx | do u check your update source? | 18:04 |
| Pici | !who | keithx | 18:04 |
| ubottu | keithx: 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 :) | 18:04 |
| solayagim | Poindexter_, standart update and upgrade will not breake your system unless you don't upgrade your whole system to another release | 18:04 |

| yellowhead | synaptic/ubuntu software center/apt-get not working, but web browser, pidgin, etc are working | 18:05 |
| Pici | Poindexter_: In order to make sure that you are getting security and other updates, you should be doing regular apt-get update, apt-get upgrade and apt-get dist-upgrades. | 18:05 |
| goltoof_1 | HI DANIEL!! | 18:05 |
| Pici | !best | kjxl9 | 18:05 |
| ubottu | kjxl9: 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. | 18:05 |
| llutz | goltoof_1: mc can | 18:05 |
| Poindexter_ | Solayagim, good point. I installed Kubuntu which is a nice trimmed down kernel and the upgrade took almost 20 minutes to do. | 18:05 |

| kjxl9 | whats the highest rated image editor in synaptic package manager? | 18:06 |
| Daniel | :( | 18:06 |
| KM0201 | Daniel: not if you want to dual boot... | 18:06 |
| bane_ | I am running Ubuntu 11.04 64bit and having problem with adobe flash, I have installed it thru Ubuntu software center, and it does not work, any ideas ? | 18:06 |

| sarkis | hey guys, why would apt be telling me 4 packages are being held back? | 18:06 |
| Pici | kjxl9: Asking the same question in a different way doesn't change what you're asking. | 18:06 |
| Poindexter_ | Thanks Pici for that good point. | 18:06 |
| Poindexter_ | :) | 18:06 |
| mun | escott, this is what gparted looks like: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/26/screenshotwl.png | 18:06 |

| sarkis | The following packages have been kept back: libsyncdaemon-1.0-1 python-ubuntuone-client ubuntuone-client ubuntuone-client-gnome | 18:06 |
| Daniel | well I don't want to dual boot | 18:06 |
| chaddy | bane_: restarted your browser? | 18:06 |
| kjxl9 | well then can i get an answer? | 18:06 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | Daniel did it not work? | 18:06 |
| Pici | sarkis: Which release of Ubuntu are you using? | 18:06 |
| llutz | goltoof_1: F9 "shell connection" /#sh:[user@]machine[:options]/[remote-dir] | 18:06 |
| solayagim | yellowhead, this is a temporary error, try again layer | 18:06 |
| KM0201 | yellowhead: have you tried changing your source list?... | 18:06 |
| goltoof_1 | Daniel: you might as well, if you already backed stuff up | 18:06 |
| Daniel | mmm the option didn't appear | 18:06 |
| sarkis | Pici: 11.04? | 18:07 |
| bane_ | chaddy: yes, fiew times, after that I restarted the computer, still the same | 18:07 |
| KM0201 | Daniel: well, then if you don't want to dual boot, then tell ubuntu to nuke the entire drive and install. | 18:07 |
| Pici | sarkis: Are you not sure? | 18:07 |
| sarkis | Pici: how can i check for sure? | 18:07 |
| yellowhead | @ solayagim: i have been trying it for 2 weeks now | 18:07 |
| Pici | sarkis: in a terminal: lsb_release -a | 18:07 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | Daniel then it's not detecting your hard drive on the netbook, then it's not mounted under ubuntu | 18:07 |
| sarkis | Pici: I installed 11.04 but i checked the box to get updates | 18:07 |
| sarkis | yup 11.04 | 18:07 |
| yellowhead | @KM0201: yah.. i've tried local and ubuntu repos | 18:07 |
| goltoof_1 | Daniel: I don't dual boot, virtualbox windows much more convenient, if you got the resources | 18:07 |
| Pici | sarkis: How are you trying to upgrade? | 18:07 |
| solayagim | yellowhead, try another mirror. I recommend germany because their mirror always been up | 18:07 |
| llutz | goltoof_1: uses fish, not sftp, but works similar. | 18:07 |
| KM0201 | yellowhead: weird. | 18:07 |
| Daniel | the installer boot menu had the options: Run Ubuntu from this USB, Install Ubuntu on a hard disk | 18:08 |
| sarkis | Pici: command line | 18:08 |
| Pici | sarkis: Which command? | 18:08 |
| tucemiux | anyone knows how to create udev rules for a hard drive ? My usb drive is failing to get recognized on 11.04 | 18:08 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | Daniel select install, then what happens | 18:08 |
| Daniel | Test memoryy | 18:08 |
| mun | escott, this is what gparted looks like: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/26/screenshotwl.png | 18:08 |
| sarkis | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 18:08 |
| yellowhead | @solayagim: i have tried about every single one i can find.. not sure if that | 18:08 |
| Pici | sarkis: Try doing a dist-upgrade. | 18:08 |
| KM0201 | Daniel: if you're nuking your entire drive and installing Ubuntu, installing is fairly straightforward | 18:08 |
| Pici | !dist-upgrade | sarkis | 18:08 |
| diki | so i use ubuntu in a vm | 18:08 |
| ubottu | sarkis: A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. Please see !upgrade for the proper way to upgrade to a new version of Ubuntu. | 18:08 |
| diki | just a while ago it had internet for months...now something happened and it doesnt want to connect | 18:08 |
| mun | escott, should i extend /dev/sda2 to cover all of the unallocated space on the left? /home is somewhere in that space | 18:08 |
| escott | mun, i would recommend using parted | 18:08 |
| diki | something got screwed with NAT | 18:08 |
| escott | mun, you do not want to extend | 18:08 |
| diki | any ideas guys? | 18:09 |
| sarkis | Pici: thanks | 18:09 |
| Daniel | It initialize as if there's an Ubuntu already installed, but I think it's a Live Installer | 18:09 |
| Daniel | and when I select Install ubuntu | 18:09 |
| mun | escott, right. so since i already have 4 primary partitions, i can't create a new one, right? | 18:09 |
| escott | mun, you want to create a new partition, but NOT format the partition | 18:09 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | Daniel it is a live installer | 18:09 |
| KM0201 | diki: if the host still has internet access, you need to check the settings on the virtual machine | 18:09 |
| Pici | sarkis: If that doesn't work, then it usually means that your mirror is not up to date, or there is something wrong with the upload itself, usually its best to wait at that time (or you've added some repositories that are incompatible with each other) | 18:09 |
| Daniel | the option to select a hard drive doesn't appear | 18:10 |
| Pici | !enter | Daniel | 18:10 |
| ubottu | Daniel: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 18:10 |
| Poindexter_ | Pici thanks for the heads up on the command apt-get dist-upgrades I will check that out. | 18:10 |
| escott | mun, ok i see the problem | 18:10 |
| Daniel | I try :D but If get confused in this IRC channel | 18:10 |
| cara | Hi all | 18:10 |
| keithx | hi all | 18:11 |
| evan__ | Hi, can anyone help me with a problem of enabling compiz after a ubuntu minimal install? | 18:11 |
| mun | escott, yeah, i'm not sure what needs to be done in order to create a new partition from here. | 18:11 |
| ZykoticK9 | evan__, IF you are using Gnome be sure to install the compiz-gnome package | 18:11 |
| cara | I am trying to boot the ubuntu cd and it stops at "Freeing initrd memory: 13076k freed" and sits there doing nothing else. I'm trying to figure out the best route to get this darn installation cd booted. | 18:11 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | Daniel the ubuntu installer is supposed to be simple. it should automatically select the drive, and overwrite windows. when you open the installer on the desktop, it has 3 options, install with windows, remove windows and install, and custom. select remove windows and install, it should overwrite the windows partitions | 18:12 |
| evan__ | ZykoticK9, I will try that now | 18:12 |
| Poindexter_ | Has anyone used VirtualBox from SunMicrosystems with Ubuntu. I have used it with Windows and it works nice with a Ubuntu install. | 18:12 |
| knightsot | hi guys | 18:13 |
| goltoof_1 | Poindexter_: yes | 18:13 |
| ink5609 | hey guys i cant seem to edit my sshd_config file it says "permission denied" | 18:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | Poindexter_, do you mean Solaris? | 18:13 |
| KM0201 | Poindexter_: a lot of people here use vbox. | 18:13 |
| goltoof_1 | ink5609: sudo | 18:13 |
| Pici | ZykoticK9: Oracle | 18:13 |
| Poindexter_ | Nice to know. | 18:13 |
| Dice-Man | Poindexter_: well that's pretty cool | 18:13 |
| ink5609 | sudo? | 18:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | Pici, sorry i misread posters message - my bad | 18:13 |
| goltoof_1 | ink5609: sudo vi sshd_config | 18:13 |
| Dice-Man | open solaris has been token back by Indiana | 18:13 |
| bane_ | after installing adobe flash plugin from ubuntu software center I still can't see flash on web pages - my /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer is empty | 18:14 |
| bane_ | is that normal ? | 18:14 |
| Poindexter_ | Dice-Man when I was first introduced to it I could not believe the capabilities of it. | 18:14 |
| llutz | virtualbox = oracle, former sun, former somebody else | 18:14 |
| Ibyss | Turns out it was working this whole time, at least because I decided to switch to Wifi, ANF THEN use a proxy. | 18:14 |
| Ibyss | thanks anyway to everyone who helped me. | 18:14 |
| evan__ | Zykotick9, I installed the package and killed gnome panels. Is there something else I have to do? | 18:15 |
| jamesiarmes | I am trying to create an AMI on EC2 built from the Ubuntu 10.10 x86_64 instance-store AMI (ami-08f40561). I am having issues launching an instance from my custom AMI. In an attempt to track down the issue, I launched an instance from the original AMI and immediatly created a new AMI by running euca-bundle-vol follwed by euca-upload-bundle on the instance and registering the new AMI through the console. However, when I launch an instance from my new AMI, | 18:15 |
| jamesiarmes | it goes from pending to terminated with a reason of "Client.InstanceInitiatedShutdown" and no console output available. Could I be doing something incorrect when I create my new AMI? | 18:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | evan__, you might have to restart GDM "sudo service gdm restart" this will log you out!!! | 18:15 |
| Poindexter_ | Will the VirtualBox emulate a 64 bit OS on a 32 bit box? | 18:16 |
| evan__ | ZykoticK9, ok brb then :D | 18:16 |
| mun | escott, in gparted, should i use the "rescue" command and give it the START and END found by testdisk? | 18:16 |
| ZykoticK9 | Poindexter_, ONLY if you CPU supports virtualization | 18:16 |
| Pici | jamesiarmes: #ubuntu-server might be a better place to ask that. | 18:16 |
| ZykoticK9 | Poindexter_, but honestly, i wouldn't use 64bit guests on 32bit hosts | 18:16 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | Daniel the ubuntu installer is supposed to be simple. it should automatically select the drive, and overwrite windows. when you open the installer on the desktop, it has 3 options, install with windows, remove windows and install, and custom. select remove windows and install, it should overwrite the windows partitions | 18:16 |
| utlemming | jamesiarmes: have you looked at the output of "ec2-get-console-output"? | 18:17 |
| Daniel | mmm | 18:17 |
| Daniel | no it doesnt appear | 18:17 |
| Daniel | :( | 18:17 |
| Daniel | just the options I told you | 18:17 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | Daniel strange... which version are you trying to install? | 18:17 |
| ZykoticK9 | Daniel, try to cut back on your use of ENTER key | 18:18 |
| Poindexter_ | ZykoticK9 have you tried the SnowLeapord guest on VirtualBox? | 18:18 |
| jamesiarmes | utlemming it just shows a timestamp from when I run "ec2-get-console-output" and nothing else | 18:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | Poindexter_, that would be a violation of Apples EULA - and thus NOT supported | 18:18 |
| Ibyss | Turns out, my isp doesn't let me "access myself" if you get what I mean. | 18:18 |
| jamesiarmes | Pici: Thanks, I'll ask over there | 18:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | Poindexter_, the #vbox channel may be of interest to you | 18:19 |
| sayz | hi guys, i would like a google plus invitation? | 18:19 |
| sayz | could you send me? | 18:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | !ot > sayz | 18:19 |
| ubottu | sayz, please see my private message | 18:19 |
| Poindexter_ | Thanks ZykoticK9. I appreciate your input. | 18:19 |
| utlemming | jamesiarmes: when you rebundled, what was the command you ran? | 18:19 |
| sayz | ubottu: ok! soryy | 18:20 |
| utlemming | My initial hunch is that you didn't provide a kernel id for PVGRUB, which would explain what you've hit | 18:20 |
| jamesiarmes | utlemming: I ran euca-bundle-vol | 18:20 |
| utlemming | And what was your registration command? | 18:20 |
| jamesiarmes | utlemming: would the paramters I sent to it be helpful? | 18:20 |
| SkiOne | can anyone explain why apache start up scripts are being nuked after updating the OS? I have had this several times now. I end up with 4 apache startup scripts in init.d 2->2.4 all empty. I restore from another machine and it works | 18:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | SkiOne, i'd "guess" that apache has been converted to an Upstart job vs. init.d | 18:21 |
| jamesiarmes | utlemming: I didn't specify an explicit kernel id, but when I look at the image in the console it has the PVGRUB image listed (aki-427d952b) | 18:21 |
| evan__ | ZykoticK9, still no luck =\ | 18:22 |
| SkiOne | ZykoticK9: I've tried that and no it hasn't | 18:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | evan__, do you have 3d support enabled? that's certainly a requirement | 18:22 |
| vSSHva | Hello why is BitchX on the ubuntu unsecure? Can please, someone explain in details why? No PM. Thank you. | 18:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | SkiOne, sorry - just ignore me then :) | 18:22 |
| SkiOne | no worries, thanks | 18:22 |
| jamesiarmes | utlemming: I registered through the console after uploading with "euca-upload-bundle" | 18:22 |
| utlemming | jamesiarmes: what was your starting instance? | 18:22 |
| utlemming | (instance ID) | 18:23 |
| escott | mun, maybe... I just don't know gparted as well. Personally I would use parted because I know it would only touch the partition table (it would not format that partition) | 18:23 |
| Pici | vSSHva: It was deemed insecure in Debian, and subsequently removed from the Ubuntu archives. Take a look here for details: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=451373 | 18:23 |
| ubottu | Debian bug 451373 in ftp.debian.org "RM: ircii-pana -- RoQA; security issues, abandoned upstream, unmainted" [Normal,Open] | 18:23 |
| jamesiarmes | utlemming: i-95714bfb | 18:23 |
| utlemming | and the AMI-ID? | 18:24 |
| evan__ | ZykoticK9, im not sure. How can I check that? | 18:24 |
| cece1 | ll | 18:24 |
| utlemming | jamesiarmes: what is the ami-Id? | 18:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | evan__, for starters you could try "glxinfo | grep -i direct", what gfx card to you have? | 18:24 |
| deem | waah.. an hilight | 18:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | evan__, "lspci | grep -i vga" if you aren't sure about gfx card | 18:24 |
| jamesiarmes | utlemming: The original AMI ID was ami-08f40561. The one I created is ami-56d52e3f | 18:25 |

| sarkis | how do you guys normally go about modifying .bashrc on ubuntu? is it safe to modify the actual .bashrc file? i noticed the system defaults are pretty crazy when it comes to ubuntu | 18:26 |
| sarkis | is there a better "upgrade proof" way | 18:26 |
| anoamliz | hi everybody | 18:26 |
| sarkis | i dont want to modify .bashrc and then have it overwritten or not pick up updates | 18:27 |
| anoamliz | I have a question | 18:27 |
| escott | sarkis, your $HOME will never be upgraded like that | 18:27 |
| sarkis | escott: i see | 18:27 |
| odix | so i loaded ubuntu live cd, did a fsck /dev/sda5, it fixed a bunch of things | 18:27 |
| evan__ | ZykoticK9, I can get 3d working on a full ubuntu installation. I just seem to be missing something with the minimal install. | 18:27 |
| anoamliz | how can I put gadgets on my desktop? | 18:27 |
| keithx | anoamliz: do u know why ibus does not work in the fixfox? | 18:27 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | !ask | anoamliz | 18:27 |
| ubottu | anoamliz: 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. :-) | 18:27 |
| odix | now i get syslinix debian, error: noconfig file found | 18:27 |
| anoamliz | I don't know jeje | 18:27 |
| odix | no default or ui configuration directive foumnd | 18:27 |
| anoamliz | I wanna install gadgets on my desktop | 18:28 |
| anoamliz | can u help me pls | 18:28 |
| escott | sarkis, if there is something that is a "global cli upgrade" it should and would be placed in the /etc/profile. i'm hard pressed to think of a reason why your ~/.bashrc would ever need to be modified | 18:28 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | !enter | anoamliz | 18:28 |
| ubottu | anoamliz: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 18:28 |
| KM0201 | THIS_IS_INSANE: did you ever get your zune issue worked out? | 18:28 |
| jamesiarmes | utlemming: The original AMI ID was ami-08f40561. The one I created is ami-56d52e3f (wasn't sure if you got this since you asked for it again right after I replied) | 18:28 |
| odix | escott can you help me out | 18:28 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: nope | 18:28 |
| tertl3 | i get an error when I do sudo apt-get -f update | 18:28 |
| mun__ | escott, actually do you know how to read testdisk's start/end columns? each has 3 columns like 14068 1 1 | 18:28 |
| anoamliz | sorry I'm new here jeje | 18:28 |
| anoamliz | how can I do that? | 18:29 |
| keithx | anoamliz: really?me too | 18:29 |
| utlemming | jamesiarmes: yeah, I was just taking a look | 18:29 |
| === kancerman_ is now known as kancerman | ||
| escott | odix, you are back... once you have the livecd up open a terminal and run sudo fsck /dev/sda5 and lets see how that goes | 18:29 |
| anoamliz | yes I'm | 18:29 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | KM0201: and I lost my windows drive, and can't access it through ubuntu, because I don't know how to remount it | 18:29 |
| odix | escott, i already did that | 18:29 |
| Camer0n | Hello, I have just upgraded from 10.04 to 11.04 to try and solve this prolem without success: Networks are shown in ubuntu but don'r connect when they are clicked on (i have tried different adapters with no success) | 18:29 |
| Camer0n | there are no errors it just times ou | 18:29 |
| odix | it fixed up everything, did the backup superblock, now when i boot i get syslinux no config file found error | 18:29 |
| Camer0n | t | 18:29 |
| odix | but its better then the grub> i was getting before | 18:29 |
| utlemming | jamesiarmes: I would suggest posting your query to the AWS board. It looks like it should have worked. | 18:29 |
| escott | mun__, i think testdisk (for some god-forsaken reason) gives you CHS geometry which you would need to convert to LBA. there are various CHS->LBA calculators on the web, but thats part of why I was saying "if you are confident of the geometry" | 18:30 |
| sipior | anoamliz: you mean Screenlets and the like? | 18:30 |
| odix | escott what exactly did i do? the actual error so i can google a fix | 18:30 |
| anoamliz | no I want to get google gadget | 18:30 |
| mun__ | escott, right so that'd be cylinder head sector? | 18:30 |
| sarkis | is it possible that my new computer which has a GeForce GT420 only has native resolution of up to 1600x1200? :9 | 18:30 |
| escott | odix, what was the result of the fsck | 18:30 |
| sarkis | :( | 18:30 |
| anoamliz | but I think so it's not for ubuntu 11 | 18:31 |
| sarkis | i was expecting it to have 1920x1080 :/ | 18:31 |
| anoamliz | yes sarkis you can have it | 18:31 |
| sandGorgon | guys - did flash player stop working after an update on 10.10 64-bit? | 18:31 |
| jamesiarmes | utlemming: will do, thank you for your assistance | 18:31 |
| odix | escott, it found a bunch of errors | 18:31 |
| odix | it looks like im back =) | 18:31 |
| === root is now known as Guest56686 | ||
| vfw | sandGorgon: How long ago? | 18:31 |
| odix | it fixed them though, used backup superblock...thanks man | 18:31 |
| odix | you saved me, what the hell did i do wrong, exactly ? | 18:31 |
| sarkis | anoamliz: for some reason my native resolution (before i get into ubuntu) i can't set that up to be 1920x1080 | 18:31 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | sarkis: it may only support up to 1600*1200 | 18:31 |
| ink5609 | also i cant get my yahoo messenger installer to open | 18:32 |
| sandGorgon | vfw, I updated about an hour ago | 18:32 |
| diki | flash works on linux moreover on 64bit? | 18:32 |
| sipior | anoamliz: yes, that's right, they likely won't work on 11.04. | 18:32 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | sarkis: you mean boot splash res? and yeah, I have the same issue | 18:32 |
| sandGorgon | diki, uptil an hour back - yes | 18:32 |
| vfw | sandGorgon: hummm... You might just try getting it manually from adobe. | 18:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | evan__, sorry - i can't help with ATI issues, best of luck! | 18:32 |
| escott | mun__, yes... im still not sure what to do about your hitting the primary partition limit. if all you did was delete the partition for /home then you should have a free primary partition. if you added partitions after removing /homes partition that makes things substantially more complex. you could try to remake the entire partition table in such a fashion as to allow an extended partition in the unallocated space at the front for /home, | 18:32 |
| escott | but it would break all your disk labels | 18:32 |
| nubyrohit1 | hii i have a problem viewing pics from picasaweb.google.com in the browser | 18:32 |
| sandGorgon | vfw, that sucks - I'm not sure what happened.. it just stopped working | 18:33 |
| sarkis | THIS_IS_INSANE: what card do you have? | 18:33 |
| sipior | anoamliz: this thread isn't especially encouraging: http://code.google.com/p/google-gadgets-for-linux/issues/detail?id=380 | 18:33 |
| nubyrohit1 | can any one help me out | 18:33 |
| misaq | hello everyone | 18:33 |
| escott | odix, and was it able to fix those errors? | 18:33 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | sarkis: i have a nforce 430 onboard card | 18:33 |
| sarkis | i see | 18:33 |
| evan__ | ZykoticK9, no problem. Thank you! | 18:33 |
| mun__ | escott, could it be that sda2 was shrunk? | 18:33 |
| odix | escott, yes im back in my os | 18:33 |
| misaq | I have problem with the irritating pop-up of Screen-Capture in Ubuntu. | 18:33 |
| vfw | sandGorgon: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ | 18:33 |
| odix | ty | 18:33 |
| odix | so what did i do? | 18:34 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | and I used startupmanager to set up my boot res, and it only gave me up to 1600*1200, but when i boot from an ubuntu CD or DVD, I get 1920*1080 | 18:34 |
| escott | mun__, unlikely. if so then the current sda2 would not be a valid fs. if you run fsck on /dev/sda2 does it pass? | 18:34 |
| nubyrohit1 | i have a problem viewing pics from picasaweb.google.com in the browser . . . | 18:34 |
| nubyrohit1 | can any one help me out? | 18:34 |
| misaq | I have problem with the irritating pop-up of Screen-Capture in Ubuntu. | 18:34 |
| cece1 | nu | 18:34 |
| vfw | sandGorgon: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/square/ | 18:34 |
| mun__ | escott, yes, i get "clean". | 18:34 |
| escott | odix, the fsck tool is FileSystem ChecK and can repair some things like your overwriting the superblock, by using a backup copy | 18:34 |
| misaq | how can I disable Screen-capture in Ubuntu? | 18:35 |
| anoamliz | thanks sipior | 18:35 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | sarkis: and I used startupmanager to set up my boot res, and it only gave me up to 1600*1200, but when i boot from an ubuntu CD or DVD, I get 1920*1080 | 18:35 |
| oCean | nubyrohit1: that's not much detail. Describe your issue with more detail (what browser, what problems, what have you tried to fix) | 18:35 |
| vfw | misaq: Does it happen when you hit Print Screen? | 18:35 |
| misaq | vfw: I think it happens with some other key of course | 18:35 |
| escott | mun__, theoretically you could have tried to shrink it, but shrinking shouldn't cause files to be lost, and growing it to fill the unallocated space would certainly wipe any data in the unallocated space | 18:35 |
| misaq | vfw, not just the print screen. and it irritates me a lot while typing | 18:36 |
| mun__ | escott, ok i won't extend it then. | 18:36 |
| evan__ | Hi, I am having a problem enabling 3d after an Ubuntu minimal install. I have FGLRX driver enabled but no effects. (It works on ubuntu full install) | 18:37 |
| balaji_ | how to set environment variable permanently | 18:37 |
| escott | mun__, another thing you could do is try to create a partition table on your backup disk image (ie treat it as if it WERE the disk) that way you could create a partition table for it that would allow you to recover data in the unallocated space that would conflict with the existing partition table, without destroying the table on the real disk | 18:38 |
| escott | balaji_, add it as an export in your ~/.profile or ~/.bashrc | 18:39 |
| Daniel | Well guys, do u have any suggestions? | 18:39 |
| mun__ | escott, ok thanks | 18:39 |
| misaq | voice misaq | 18:39 |
| _pHI_ | hmm, how can i find out what graphics driver is currently being used by ubuntu? | 18:39 |
| escott | balaji_, note that those won't be in the environment for the gui, only for things launched from the shell | 18:39 |
| nubyrohit1 | i ve my pics uploaded at picassweb.google.com....but i m not able to watch dose pics in my browser now........tried using firefox and google chrome.. ... | 18:40 |
| escott | _pHI_, glxinfo will tell you what glxdriver is in use, you can also look through /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 18:40 |
| nubyrohit1 | dont know what the problem is | 18:40 |
| _pHI_ | _pHI_: i have intel hd 3000 (with sandy bridge notebook cpu) but somehow 3D acceleration doesn't appear to be enabled... | 18:40 |
| _pHI_ | escott: hmm, it complains about extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". | 18:40 |
| escott | _pHI_, sandybridge is probably too new. try a newer kernel/gem combo or just wait for 11.10 | 18:41 |
| _pHI_ | escott: darn :( | 18:41 |
| _pHI_ | escott: let me look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 18:41 |
| anoamliz | alguien habla español? | 18:41 |
| anoamliz | jeje | 18:41 |
| balaji_ | escott: fine.. In .bashrc i had already added a PATH location, now i had to append another location.. what to do | 18:41 |
| oCean | !es | anoamliz | 18:42 |
| ubottu | anoamliz: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 18:42 |
| escott | _pHI_, intel is reasonably well supported, but they don't give the engineering samples to the gem team soon enough for the drivers to make it into mesa/gem by launch date | 18:42 |
| escott | _pHI_, you could see if there is some kind of gem/mesa ppa out there to get you a bit more "bleeding edge" | 18:42 |
| anoamliz | thanks =) I didn't know | 18:42 |
| anoamliz | I can talk English but I don't know very much jeje I just wanted to know it =) | 18:43 |
| _pHI_ | escott: i found one and am on these drivers (+mesa) update from phoronix... | 18:43 |

| ZykoticK9 | evan__, glad to help | 19:29 |
| Pici | livingdaylight: Yes. | 19:29 |
| livingdaylight | Pici: cool, is it a viable (read recommended) option? | 19:30 |
| Pici | livingdaylight: There are a few regulars here that don't like it, but it does work. | 19:31 |
| livingdaylight | Pici: do you know why they say they don't like it? | 19:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | Pici, a "few" eh? ;) livingdaylight making gnu/linux rely on Windows is a bad idea IMO | 19:32 |
| livingdaylight | maybe need to google a review /opinions on wubi | 19:32 |
| Pici | livingdaylight: I think that would be a good idea. | 19:33 |
| lapaga | livingdaylight, it does work though | 19:33 |
| livingdaylight | ZykoticK9: your reason sounds an ethical one. I would say that wubi is not making ubuntu rely on windows. I'm more interested on how it works from a purely functional/technical point of view | 19:34 |
| Neozonz | hey agreenbhm | 19:34 |
| agreenbhm | yo | 19:34 |
| agreenbhm | ok, so here's the issue i have for you... | 19:34 |
| BluesKaj | livingdaylight, some ppl feel wubi is for experimemting with ubuntu to see if one likes it or not , and that it's not meant as a fully useable OS | 19:34 |
| escott | livingdaylight, its also going to be a bit slower (because of the embedded filesystems). these days virtualization is probably a better choice | 19:34 |
| agreenbhm | on ubuntu, where's the start button? | 19:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | livingdaylight, it most certainly DOES rely on windows. BluesKaj +1 | 19:34 |
| dr_willis | livingdaylight: its mounting the OS via the loopback featuers from a file.. similer to how grub2 boots an iso file. | 19:35 |
| agreenbhm | and what's the best antivirus program | 19:35 |
| livingdaylight | escott: good point | 19:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | !virus | agreenbhm | 19:35 |
| ubottu | agreenbhm: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 19:35 |
| agreenbhm | let me clarify, what's the best a/v program to defrag my reiserfs? | 19:35 |
| escott | livingdaylight, the only good reason to use it (as far as I can tell) is that you can nuke the wubi fs when you are done, but your mbr is then f-ed up. so its actually worse than virtualbox | 19:35 |
| escott | agreenbhm, huh? those are two different things | 19:35 |
| agreenbhm | yes, it was a joke | 19:36 |
| llutz | agreenbhm: an a/v program won't defrag fs at all | 19:36 |
| agreenbhm | it's all been a joke | 19:36 |
| ZykoticK9 | agreenbhm, a/v and defrag are TOTALLY different things. sorry I'm not even sure reiserfs (murderfs) has a defrag program - EXT doesn't. | 19:36 |
| livingdaylight | yes, virtualbox sounds like a better way to go | 19:36 |
| Neozonz | YEAH agreenbhm | 19:36 |
| BluesKaj | ZykoticK9, I didn't say that wubi doesn't rely on windows | 19:36 |
| Neozonz | u idiotttt | 19:36 |
| tuxx1 | hello. how can I control my CPU freq in xubuntu? | 19:36 |

| Monotoko | hey guys...I noticed when I login to the ctrl+alt+f1 console, it tells me when I need to upgrade my packages | 19:43 |
| Monotoko | how do I make it do that when I open the terminal? | 19:43 |
| sylwek | ktoś tam jest ?? | 19:43 |
| cdavis | My nvidia drives says it is activated but not currently in use? How do I enable it? | 19:43 |
| sylwek | you must write in wvdial pin | 19:43 |
| sylwek | nvidia drivers?? | 19:44 |
| ZykoticK9 | cdavis, is your nvidia driver is working, just ignore the message (it's a bug). Does nvidia-settings say nvidia is working? | 19:44 |
| goltoof_1 | !nvidia | 19:44 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 19:44 |

| goltoof_1 | llutz: thx, i'll take a gander | 19:45 |
| sylwek | because your nvidia driver haven't active 3d acceleration ;) | 19:45 |
| Pici | !tor-sasl | goltoof_1 This will also be relevant for freenode | 19:45 |
| ubottu | goltoof_1 This will also be relevant for freenode: freenode blocks connections from Tor users on its regular servers. Users registered with nickserv can connect to freenode's Tor hidden service instead; see http://freenode.net/irc_servers.shtml#tor for instructions. For help, ask in #freenode. | 19:45 |
| sylwek | in net you mast find a special command for 3d acceleration for your graphic card | 19:46 |

| ZykoticK9 | tharangaraju, have you tried adding Medibuntu repo and installing the w32codecs (or w64codecs if you use AMD64)? | 19:50 |
| Monotoko | seriously...no-one can help me? | 19:50 |
| goltoof_1 | keeps telling my nick is owned by, etc | 19:50 |
| tharangaraju | yep i added both of them | 19:50 |
| goltoof_1 | apparently i'm already logged in 5 times, trying to drop all conns | 19:50 |
| Pici | Monotoko: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 19:50 |
| tharangaraju | no its intel | 19:50 |
| qin | Monotoko: gnome-terminal? | 19:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | tharangaraju, have you tried playing in mplayer or vlc? | 19:51 |
| tharangaraju | yep | 19:51 |
| dr_willis | Ive noticved that i rarely seem to use the w32codecs these days.. could because im always using vlc :) | 19:51 |
| costello_ | hey all, trying to setup an old HP Laserjet (via network) on Ubuntu 10.10. Can anyone help? I can't detect it | 19:51 |
| llutz | goltoof_1: nickserv ghost if you're registered | 19:51 |
| tharangaraju | it just play the audio only not the video | 19:51 |
| dr_willis | costello_: use the cups web inerface and it can scan for it. You might need to isntasll the HP server tool. (i forget its name) for it to be used fully. | 19:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | tharangaraju, "it" being vlc or mplayer? | 19:52 |
| goltoof_1 | llutz: ? | 19:52 |
| goltoof_1 | llutz: does nada | 19:52 |
| dr_willis | costello_: 'hplip' i think is the name of the package. or part of the name. | 19:52 |
| tharangaraju | both ... | 19:52 |
| Monotoko | qin, yes | 19:52 |
| Monotoko | I'd just like it to tell me when I open it if there is an update available | 19:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | tharangaraju, i have no ideas left, best of luck. | 19:53 |
| dr_willis | Monotoko: the system normally checks and tells you that.. about once a week in the gui i think | 19:53 |
| Pici | Monotoko: If you issue a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, and there is nothing to upgrade, then nothing will be upgraded. | 19:53 |
| tharangaraju | im trying to play video training guide "CBT Nuggets Cisco CCNA Certification Package" | 19:53 |
| costello_ | dr_willis thanks, I've installed hplip and am on the cups admin page, 'add printer' Under "network printers" I've no idea which option to select | 19:53 |
| costello_ | HP JetDirect? | 19:53 |
| tharangaraju | its okey thanks again | 19:53 |
| dr_willis | costello_: i recall a scan item. or you can enter the ip of the printer if you know it.. many printeres have differnt kinds of print services. JetDirect is one common to hp printers. theres proberly others it can do as well. | 19:54 |
| inashdeen | hi, can some one teach me to package a software in deb, indepth, step by step, not just linking to some debian website? | 19:54 |
| dr_willis | inashdeen: you want someone to spend like 6+ hrs walking you through it? | 19:55 |
| dr_willis | because you dont want to read any guides? | 19:55 |
| costello_ | dr_willis it hasn't detected the printer, I'm unsure of the IP (I think I have a problem because the router is dishing out 172.x.x.x addresses and the printer has 192.168.1.150 written on it) | 19:55 |
| Adis | Hello, what is the linux equivalent for chkdsk /r? | 19:55 |
| Pici | inashdeen: Thats not really within the scope of this channel. There are a number of tutorials on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide as well as #ubuntu-packaging for additional help. | 19:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | costello_, 172 is NOT an address a router would give out. | 19:56 |
| inashdeen | dr_willis: no seriously, i went through all that guides, i just got blurred. | 19:56 |
| Pici | inashdeen: But as dr_willis said, if you don't want to read anything you're not likely to get any help. | 19:56 |
| amee2k | evening everyone | 19:56 |
| dr_willis | costello_: that could be an issue. if the printer is set to static ip. Many printers have a web interface on their ip# also -> http://192.168.1.150 in yoru case. | 19:56 |
| costello_ | ZykotickK9 ifconfig shows inet addr:172.16.0.9 | 19:56 |
| dr_willis | inashdeen: start small read, play with it.. take a break. learn differnt linux fundamentals. go back read more, check out esisting packages. | 19:57 |
| amee2k | i'm in the middle of running the 10.4 setup cd. how do i open any other applications while the setup is running? | 19:57 |
| inashdeen | dr_willis: ok,thanks | 19:57 |
| tharangaraju | everyone, what is the best video converter to convert wmv files to avi or mkv | 19:57 |
| tharangaraju | ?? | 19:57 |
| costello_ | ffmpeg | 19:57 |
| maalac | when i use to connect to OTH KEY network-connect i'm getting an error. Unable to connect to IVE? | 19:57 |
| amee2k | say... an xterm with a root shell would be a start, so i can do networkmanager's job properly | 19:57 |
| maalac | any knows how to resolve this ? | 19:57 |
| dr_willis | costello_: that thing may have a reset to factory defaults.. but you may need to somehow get into it to set its ip# correctly | 19:57 |
| dr_willis | amee2k: you mean 'sudo -i' ? | 19:58 |
| amee2k | dr_willis: yeah, but from the install system | 19:58 |
| dr_willis | amee2k: go to the console perhaps? | 19:58 |
| amee2k | other than the setup program's window it doesn't have anything | 19:59 |
| amee2k | thats not very user friendly :P | 19:59 |
| dr_willis | I always go to the 'try ubuntu' then run the installer... | 19:59 |
| dr_willis | You asked for a root shell.. | 19:59 |
| inashdeen | ok, second, anyone interested in having partnership with me, trying to polish a kinda software i created | 19:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | costello_, sorry my mistake - 172.16.x.x COULD be an address a router gives out | 19:59 |
| amee2k | whats wrong with that? | 19:59 |
| qin | Monotoko: Well you could use byobu, with neat info in the bar, edit ~/.bashrc and add script pulling acctuall update info (start delay), or look for hack with motd. | 20:00 |
| costello_ | dr_willis browsing the IP isn't displaying anything I'm afraid | 20:00 |
| qin | Monotoko: With gnome-terminal it is easy to run start up command, check in profiles. | 20:00 |
| dr_willis | costello_: in the past ive had to hook up a pc -> printer via a cross over cable and set the pc to the same ip range. other wise it wouldent let me get to the web interface. You Might need to track down some docs for that old thing. | 20:01 |
| dr_willis | costello_: can you even ping the ip? try nmap scanning it? | 20:01 |

| hardwired | after I upgraded to natty, xbmc is dead slow. any hints what changed? | 20:03 |
| Deathbringer | any ideas? | 20:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | hardwired, if you mean the interface - verify you still have 3d support | 20:04 |
| hardwired | ZykoticK9: ok, good idea | 20:04 |

| godtrunks | how i install | 20:06 |

| ZykoticK9 | godtrunks, plugging into a wired connection would certainly be the easiest | 20:06 |

| godtrunks | how? | 20:07 |
| engammalsko | Help with upgrade to 11.04: http://pastie.org/2146278 | 20:07 |
| godtrunks | how i do this? | 20:07 |
| edbian | engammalsko: Change your repo server | 20:08 |
| melow01 | godtrunks, usb flash drive | 20:08 |
| hardwired | ZykoticK9: ah, checking for X is difficult, I have no windowmanager, mouse not working | 20:08 |
| engammalsko | edbian: repo server? I'm not using a ubuntu server, I get the same error with both shell and the update-manager. | 20:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | hardwired, hopefully someone has some suggestions for you. Best of luck (PS i NEVER updated my Ubuntu boxes from version to version, too many issues) | 20:09 |
| edbian | engammalsko: You have to point the package manager at a different repo server. The repos are where the package manager gets all that great software. System -> Admin -> Software Sources | 20:10 |
| engammalsko | edbian: thanks brb | 20:10 |
| hardwired | ZykoticK9: i have some minor problems every time :-) | 20:10 |
| godtrunks | ok, i use a flash drive but what i write to install the drivers? | 20:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | edbian, i think engammalsko would need to use Ubuntu Software Center to change Software Sources | 20:10 |
| engammalsko | ZykoticK9: I think so too, cuz I can't find it in Admin. | 20:11 |
| ZykoticK9 | engammalsko, it was removed | 20:11 |
| pythonirc101 | which version is libcgal-dev? how can i find out without installing it? | 20:12 |

| edbian | ZykoticK9: why whould have to? | 20:12 |

| ZykoticK9 | _Neytiri_, why didn't you install Desktop and add services? | 20:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | _Neytiri_, but ubuntu-desktop would give the standard ubuntu desktop packages | 20:15 |
| noisewaterphd | anoamliz, check out FDT by powerflasher | 20:15 |
| anoamliz | ok | 20:15 |
| qin | anoamliz: Either use wine and native Adobe Sotfware (for M$), or check synfig, which have some abilities to prepare flash animation, or be cool and use jquery | 20:16 |
| tharangaraju | hey guys what should i do to this error "Package dependencies cannot be resolved" | 20:16 |

| engammalsko | edbian: Okay, but I have an old non-working ubuntu 11.04 maybe that's the problem. Can I remove it somehow? | 20:27 |
| edbian | engammalsko: That is almost definitely not the problem. Delete it by using gparted and a live CD. Just delete the partition. Careful though, there is a good chance you'll break grub. | 20:28 |
| engammalsko | edbian: Argh, do I need to use a live cd? : ( Then I can't remove it. | 20:28 |

| squaregoldfish | Firewall question: I have a machine on 192.168.1.5, which has access to the outside world via my router at 192.168.1.1. I want to stop it establishing connections to anything else on the 192.168.1.x network. What's the best way? | 20:29 |
| qin | amee2k: Can you select standart mountpoints? (/ /opt /etc) | 20:29 |
| edbian | engammalsko: You can partition using Ubuntu but you can't edit a partition you're mounted on and you cannot unmount root. So you need a live CD to change the partition of the good Ubuntu install. Deleting the old broken ubuntu install will not solve this problem. | 20:29 |

| engammalsko | edbian: Oh, ok. But how do I burn ubuntu 11.04? I didn't get it to work but 10.10 worked 6 months ago. But I think the problem was that I burned the .iso file without extracting it. | 20:32 |
| qin | amee2k: Yes, Ubuntu from cd/usb | 20:32 |
| engammalsko | edbian: It should be extracted, right? | 20:32 |
| amee2k | qin: the last ubuntu i installed from scratch was 8.10 ;) | 20:32 |
| edbian | engammalsko: No | 20:33 |
| edbian | engammalsko: Definitely don't extract it! :D | 20:33 |
| squaregoldfish | maalac Disabling remote access will only prevent access to the router, no? | 20:33 |
| KM0201 | amee2k: believe it or not, the installer hasn't changed much... it might *look* a little different, but under the hood, it's almost exactly the same. | 20:33 |
| maalac | yes dats right. is that what you want ? | 20:33 |
| edbian | engammalsko: Burning on windows or linux ? (basically google 'burn iso' and you'll find tons of stuff. There is an ISO burner built into ubuntu and windows 7. On other versions of windows you have to download and ISO burner | 20:33 |
| amee2k | then i upgraded up to 9.10, and all the newer ones didn't boot anymore on my box. the current one is the first one that has a working installer again | 20:33 |
| engammalsko | edbian: So why didn't it work? D: It was the .iso from the homepage burned on a dvd-r | 20:33 |
| KM0201 | squaregoldfish: am i correct... you want 192.168.1.5, to be able to get out to the internet, and do whatever, you want any other IP assigned by the router, to not be allowed to do anything... | 20:34 |
| edbian | engammalsko: What happend when you booted it ? | 20:34 |
| amee2k | KM0201: it has changed a lot i'd say ;) | 20:34 |

| sudokill | dror, if it says its installed try removing it then reinstalling it | 21:07 |
| Strav | dror: install mesa-utils and run glxinfo. You should check whether you have direct rendering enabled. | 21:08 |
| sudokill | glxinfo || grep render | 21:08 |
| sudokill | | i mean | 21:08 |
| sudokill | otherwise it can be a bit confusing lol | 21:08 |
| Strav | If it's enabled then it's odd. If it's not, chances are you'll fix the problem by messing with your graphics driver. | 21:08 |

| sudokill | dror, at the login screen can u select unity? if u can does it say hardware not good enough reverting to classic or something like that | 21:11 |
| Erik500002 | Strav: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/706941/ | 21:11 |
| Strav | Erik500002: patching isn't really complicated, the general syntax is patch -p1 < /path/to/patch/file | 21:12 |
| Strav | Erik500002: you usually run this from the root of your sources dir. | 21:12 |
| dror | sudokill: the first time after upgrading, i got a black window with no response. then i used an older kernel from the grub and it worked, but there was some error, don't remember which | 21:12 |
| sudokill | dror, try re installing nvidia anyway | 21:13 |
| Erik500002 | Strav: Right, but my problem is that the file that is specifed drivers/net/wireless/ath/regd.c | drivers/net/wireless/ath/regd_common.h are not in the sources | 21:13 |
| Strav | Erik500002: if it says it cannot find file blah blah, then find that file and try giving more explicit path options (man patch). Afterwhat you compile your driver, install and done. | 21:13 |

| escott | Danny__, port 5009 is a high port >1024 and is unrelated to your trouble connecting to the internet | 21:58 |
| kingofswords | i am | 21:58 |
| noisewaterphd | kingofswords, if you installed ubuntu after win was installed, then you will need to use the win install disc to fix bootmgr, then use a livecd to boot ubuntu and edit the grub config | 21:58 |
| kingofswords | updating grub doesnt fix it thou | 21:58 |
| kingofswords | install disk and bootmgr doesnt work | 21:58 |
| ben__ | cpatrick08, I rechecked it says No device found | 21:58 |
| === Dwayne is now known as Mr_Oogi_Boogi | ||
| Danny__ | Oh, but it seemed to stop working as soon as I changed that, and I can still connect to the Internet with my phone | 21:59 |
| noisewaterphd | kingofswords, no, you will edit grub to get the newly fixed (via xp install disc) windows into grub | 21:59 |
| noisewaterphd | kingofswords, when you installed ubuntu it wiped out the windows boot | 22:00 |
| usr13 | kingofswords: if you follow the above link and install grub to MBR of the primary disk, you'll be good to go. | 22:00 |
| kingofswords | but bootmgr is missing....grub doesnt fix this | 22:00 |
| noisewaterphd | kingofswords, you have to use the install disc to fix the windows boot | 22:00 |
| kingofswords | noisewaterphd, no not correct | 22:00 |
| noisewaterphd | kingofswords, I know bootmgr is missing, that is why you have to use the windows install disc to repair it | 22:00 |
| escott | Danny__, its possible you did something wrong in your router while forwarding the port, but that port itself is not the cause. a few things to check. run "cat /etc/resolv.conf" and then there will be a number following nameserver. can you (a) ping that number "ping 123.123.123.123" (b) let us know what it is | 22:00 |
| kingofswords | i had them both working then i formatted a 2gb fat partition that wasnt being used | 22:00 |
| usr13 | kingofswords: Sure it does. Again, let grub boot your MS Windows OS. Install it to MBR of the primary disk, (the one it boots from). | 22:01 |
| usr13 | kingofswords: You can boot into Ubuntu, right? | 22:01 |
| kingofswords | ive tried using the recovery in xp disc by typing fix mbr and fix bootmgr and it doesnt work | 22:01 |
| escott | Danny__, if you could also run "ping 8.8.8.8" | 22:02 |
| kingofswords | yeh ubuntu find | 22:02 |
| usr13 | kingofswords: Ok then, yer good to go. | 22:02 |
| kingofswords | i have ssd hdd so needed to slipstream xp on to it via usb | 22:02 |
| escott | Danny__, hit "Ctrl-C" to stop the pings | 22:02 |
| kingofswords | im not good to go | 22:02 |
| usr13 | kingofswords: Why not? | 22:02 |
| Danny__ | There are two ip's should I ping both | 22:03 |
| usr13 | (you obviously haven't tried it yet, so you don't know.) | 22:03 |
| kingofswords | because i cant fix mbr via recovery console in xp disc | 22:03 |
| escott | Danny__, sure | 22:03 |
| Dan__ | Greetings all. Does any one have any experience running Ubuntu as a media server or something similar? | 22:03 |
| kingofswords | so there is no windows os in my bootloader | 22:03 |
| usr13 | kingofswords: Again; install the grub2 boot loader into MBR of primary HD, (the one the computer boots to), and let grub boot your MS Windows OS. | 22:04 |
| kingofswords | usr13, ok that doesnt make any sense to me | 22:04 |
| Danny__ | Ok for the first ping it say 96 packs transmitted, 96 received, 0% packet loss | 22:05 |
| usr13 | kingofswords: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 22:05 |
| escott | Danny__, what ip address was that ping to (and thats a successful ping btw) | 22:05 |
| kingofswords | usr13, thx but pretty sure thhis isnt going to work | 22:05 |
| Viking667 | I'm relatively lucky, I managed to get Windows installed onto its own drive, solo. Then I swapped slots, and stuck the Linux drive in first, pointed grub to the Windows partition to boot, then Windows would boot... of course "Fix boot" wouldn't work on Windows, but hey. You can't win them all. | 22:06 |
| Viking667 | ... this was a little while ago now. | 22:06 |
| Danny__ | The first ip address it gave me after running the command you gave me | 22:06 |
| kingofswords | i have 1 ssd hdd and thats it.... | 22:06 |

| Viking667 | I've just ended up deinstalling fglrx because several other things wanted an upgrade (natty, here). Now I want to put it back in, the apt wants to remove about a hundred other packages, including core components of X, KDE and gnome. | 22:08 |

| kingofswords | usr13, i think u totally misunderstand my problem | 22:10 |
| Viking667 | kingofswords: you just.... oh, never mind. | 22:10 |
| escott | Danny__, ok you are connected to the internet. its possible that your dns is down. without a dns your computer cannot convert www.google.com into a number like 74.125.93.105 (its like looking up a phone number in the phone book). you could try switching dns to google dns 8.8.8.8, but its a little strange we can ping the 209 address because that is your road-runner provided dns, usually when dns is down its non-responsive to pings | 22:10 |
| echoSMILE | Jordan_U: wrong channel. sorry. | 22:10 |
| Jordan_U | echoSMILE: np :) | 22:11 |
| kingofswords | it isnt a case of just anything | 22:11 |
| usr13 | kingofswords: Ok, then. You are good to go. Just install the grub boot loader to the MBR of the primary drive, (The one MS Windows is on.) | 22:11 |
| oCean | erincribbs23: but you do have a homedirectory right? But there is *nothing* in it? No (sub)directories etc? | 22:11 |

| kingofswords | usr13, i am a newbie i have no idea how to install grub boot loader to the mbr | 22:11 |

| Cerrdor | shanks | 22:12 |

| kingofswords | im looking and it doesnt have it on there | 22:13 |
| oCean | erincribbs23: that's odd. An upgrade should not touch your data. Try running (in terminal) sudo updatedb when it's finished locate jpg | 22:13 |
| usr13 | kingofswords: "Use Boot-Repair Graphical Tool" | 22:13 |
| kingofswords | ok | 22:13 |
| kingofswords | can i dl that from synaptic? | 22:13 |
| erincribbs23 | ok. thanks. i'll stay on just in case. | 22:13 |
| Danny__ | Escot, is there anything I can do to fix it? | 22:14 |
| Jordan_U | !sysrq | cyperbg | 22:14 |
| ubottu | cyperbg: In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 22:14 |
| erincribbs23 | i don't think it worked. | 22:14 |
| oCean | erincribbs23: why | 22:15 |
| Jordan_U | cyperbg: You might also be able to get to a terminal by pressing ctrl+alt+F1. | 22:15 |
| escott | Danny__, if you want to try a different dns you could go to the network manager config and change it from dhcp to dhcp addressess only, and in the nameserver line put in 8.8.8.8 and see if things start working | 22:15 |
| cyperbg | Jordan_U ctrl+alt+F1 and CTRL + ALT + Backspace did not work | 22:15 |
| erincribbs23 | gave a lot of jpg file names from the /usr/ location but still nothing in my home folder | 22:15 |
| keithb | Danny__: have you actually tested DNS? try the cli: host www.ubuntu.net, it should give you its IP address | 22:15 |
| Dev0n | hey, anyone know how I could fix something like this: -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jul 1 03:03 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_tw_recycle ? | 22:15 |
| cyperbg | Alt+PrintScreen and typing, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. restared the machine | 22:16 |
| Dev0n | I haven't touched the file before but for some reason it's read only for root too :/ | 22:16 |
| Dev0n | trying to change value to 1 but cant =x | 22:16 |
| erincribbs23 | sudo updatedb did nothing in the terminal | 22:16 |
| borisbsc_ | Hi, I have a problem installing Ubuntu via WUBI on a hardware RAID volume. After reeboot, the installer says "No root file system is defined". Raid setup is 2x1TB ICH10R. | 22:17 |
| oCean | erincribbs23: it should not return anything, but the result is disappointing, since it does not show your lost files | 22:17 |
| Danny__ | Yeah it did | 22:17 |
| escott | borisbsc_, i belive thats not supported | 22:17 |
| erincribbs23 | is there nothing else to try? | 22:17 |
| usr13 | kingofswords: Actually, most of the info you need is here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows?action=show&redirect=RestoreGrub This one is shorter. | 22:18 |
| kingofswords | but i have no problem with ubuntu | 22:18 |
| borisbsc_ | I've seen reports of succ install on a raid volume via WUBI, and ICH10R is a fairly old controller. | 22:18 |
| usr13 | kingofswords: sudo update-grub2 | 22:18 |
| escott | Danny__, we could try a quick telnet. telnet www.google.com 80 and then type very quickly "GET INDEX.HTML" and hit enter three times | 22:18 |
| kingofswords | usr13, ive updated grub | 22:19 |
| oCean | erincribbs23: I'm thinking. But I've never seen an upgrade touch user data | 22:19 |
| kingofswords | if xp mbr is missing then update grub isnt going to fix this is it? | 22:19 |
| usr13 | kingofswords: What version? | 22:19 |
| kingofswords | usr13, why have i dled this boot repair? | 22:19 |

| usr13 | kingofswords: Ok good. | 22:20 |
| erincribbs23 | the only way for me to update was to burn the download to a writable dvd and restart. | 22:20 |
| kingofswords | boot repair just reinstalls grub.... | 22:20 |
| erincribbs23 | i'm on a laptop if that matters | 22:20 |
| Danny__ | Telnet could not resolve www.google.com | 22:20 |
| oCean | erincribbs23: oooh. You did a re-install, not an upgrade | 22:20 |
| usr13 | kingofswords: first do sudo update-grub2 | 22:20 |
| kingofswords | i can do this my self but have no need as ubuntu is fine | 22:20 |
| escott | Danny__, so your dns is not working | 22:20 |
| erincribbs23 | am i screwed? | 22:20 |

| KM0201 | i find it amazing you were gonna do an upgrade, w/o backing that stuff up | 22:21 |
| oCean | erincribbs23: that depends if the partition of your previous homedir has been formatted or not | 22:21 |
| Danny__ | So what can I do? | 22:21 |
| kingofswords | usr13, sudo: update-grub2: command not found | 22:22 |

| keithb | Danny__: try: host www.google.com 8.8.8.8 which will do a DNS lookup with a different server | 22:24 |

| Jordan_U | n2diy_: When you delete the Ubuntu partition you delete 80% of grub, making it non-functional. If she just wants to be able to boot Windows then she can install a Microsoft style mbr. Installing a Microsoft style mbr can be done from a Windows install CD or an Ubuntu LiveCD. | 22:26 |

| KM0201 | Jordan_U: how can you install a windows mbr, from an ubuntu live cd?.. | 22:26 |
| escott | erincribbs23, it may be you have a separate /home partition that just wasn't mounted (like if you home folder was completely empty as if it were brand new) in which case the partition should come in sudo fdisk -l | 22:27 |

| oCean | erincribbs23: copy and paste to http://paste.ubuntu.com | 22:27 |
| escott | borisbsc_, fyi most places call that kind of raid "soft-raid" or "fakeraid" | 22:27 |
| meganerd | Danny__: I think mtr is included by default now | 22:28 |
| erincribbs23 | copy what exactly? | 22:28 |

| KM0201 | wubi? | 22:29 |
| borisbsc_ | escott: why is it called softraid? the volume is defined in the bios of a hw controller, the volume exists even before windows boots. I thought windows raids were softraids. | 22:29 |
| Danny__ | I'm in a menu I'm not sure what to do | 22:29 |
| ikonia | borisbsc_: it's controlled by software, not a hardware device | 22:29 |
| meganerd | borisbsc_: it usually depends on an OS driver to work | 22:29 |

| erincribbs23 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/636028/ | 22:30 |
| escott | borisbsc_, because there is no hardware raid controller, the bios hands off the balancing to the cpu, there isn't a device fully handling the writing of data to different volumes. therefore it is software based and fake. linux has its own preferred software raid (mdadm) which has a different on disk format than your fakeraid | 22:30 |
| Jordan_U | n2diy_: Installing Xubuntu again will restore the ability to boot both Xubuntu and Windows, but the process of re-installing Xubuntu will make all of her data from the old Xubuntu partition irrecoverable (if it's not already irrecoverable). | 22:30 |
| erincribbs23 | i'm thankful y'all are here. | 22:31 |
| borisbsc_ | didn't know that, thx all. | 22:31 |
| Danny__ | What should I do after mtr 8.8.8.8? | 22:31 |
| escott | borisbsc_, because of the unknowns of those bios fakeraids the support is worse, mdadm also has more features | 22:31 |
| n2diy_ | Jordan_U, She had an "issue" with something, and wanted Xubuntu gone. She had someone delete Xubuntu, and here I am. I don't know how did it, or what they did. | 22:31 |
| borisbsc_ | so, my raids will work only with windows? | 22:32 |
| fossconn | Can I make my boot sector be windows boot again? I'm not happy with grub | 22:32 |
| Jordan_U | n2diy_: Did she have important data in the Xubuntu partition? | 22:32 |
| escott | Thraspic, each terminal outputs a terminal type $TERM you can put a CASE statement referencing that in your .bashrc | 22:32 |

| Danny__ | Nothing is showing up | 22:33 |
| meganerd | Danny__: can you ping your gateway? | 22:34 |
| === jsurfer_ is now known as jsurfer | ||
| erincribbs23 | anything? | 22:34 |
| Danny__ | How do I do that? | 22:34 |
| n2diy_ | Jordan_U, I don't know, but she did on the Win side. I'd like to recover everything possible, but..., she made a choice, and has to live with it. | 22:34 |
| Thraspic | escott, ahhhh, I see, thanks a bunch. | 22:34 |
| meganerd | Danny__: is this a wireless or wired connection? | 22:34 |
| Jordan_U | n2diy_: And just as personal advice. If she really does want Xubuntu gone, rather than just fixed, you should probably honor her wishes. And calling Windows a "virus" is both innacurate and actively detrimental to the goal of spreading Ubuntu and Free software. | 22:34 |
| escott | borisbsc_, its possible to make it work with dmraid, but its a lot harder, and im not sure grub (the bootloader) supports it. it may be possible to use the fakeraid with linux, but you may have to boot with a non-raided disk. i don't know too much about it, just know its harder | 22:34 |
| Danny__ | Wired | 22:34 |
| meganerd | escott: it is possible but a lot harder | 22:35 |
| Dev0n | anyone know how I could fix this: -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jul 1 03:03 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_tw_recycle ? | 22:35 |
| oCean | erincribbs23: I'm afraid you only had/have 1 single partition, and I think that means it reformatted that entire partition | 22:35 |
| KM0201 | n2diy: how could she delete Ubuntu from Windows? Unless you used Wubi to install Ubuntu, i don't see how thats possible. | 22:35 |
| escott | Danny__, earlier you were able to ping the 209 address right | 22:35 |
| Dev0n | I didn't even touch the file and it's read only :/ | 22:35 |
| weerwolk | Nederlanders ? | 22:35 |
| erincribbs23 | so it's impossible to recover? | 22:35 |
| n2diy_ | Jordan_U, ok, we disagree. | 22:35 |
| meganerd | Danny__: type "ip route" the ip address following "default via" is the one to ping | 22:35 |
| escott | erincribbs23, you may be able to recover the data, but it would take some more advanced forensic skills | 22:35 |
| Jordan_U | KM0201: You can use partitioning programs from within Windows. | 22:35 |
| n2diy_ | KM0201, I don't know, I wasn't there. | 22:35 |
| Danny__ | Yeah but I think somehow my dns went down after that | 22:35 |
| erincribbs23 | are you capable? :) | 22:35 |
| KM0201 | Jordan_U: true, but it just seems to me, if she was going to go that far... she would have known what she was doing was reckless | 22:36 |
| erincribbs23 | or know anyone who can help? i'm such a novice | 22:36 |
| bazhang | !nl | weerwolk | 22:36 |
| ubottu | weerwolk: Nederlandstalige ondersteuning voor Ubuntu (en vers gezette koffie) is te vinden in #ubuntu-nl | 22:36 |
| clavis | hello, i now run ubuntu on a usb key, with win7 started on the harddrive. When i want to install it, the option "install alongside windows 7" does not exist, i can only choose the option where i have to choose partitions myself... why is the alongside-option missing for me? any advice? | 22:36 |
| n2diy_ | KM0201, Xubuntu was dual booted, so it had it own partition. | 22:36 |
| KM0201 | n2diy: wubi can look like it is dual booting w/ 'dows... thats what it's designed to do... set up an easy to use/remove dual boot system. | 22:37 |
| Jordan_U | n2diy_: Can you boot a LiveCD, run boot info script, and pastebin the RESULTS.txt? | 22:37 |
| Jordan_U | !bootinfo | n2diy_ | 22:37 |
| ubottu | n2diy_: Boot info script is a usefull script for diagnosing boot problems. Run the script following the directions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and then look at RESULTS.txt (or !pastebin it for others to look at). | 22:37 |
| escott | clavis, is there free unallocated space on the drive | 22:37 |
| n2diy_ | KM0201, I installed Xubuntu, and I didn't use Wubi. | 22:38 |
| Jordan_U | KM0201: The symptom of the grub rescue prompt does not match what would happen if Wubi were used then removed. | 22:38 |
| s7r | what is the difference between ubuntu and xubuntu | 22:38 |
| KM0201 | ok | 22:38 |
| escott | Danny__, if you have some kind of marginal connection (like your cable modem is going out every few minutes) that might be your problem | 22:38 |
| n2diy_ | Jordan_U, let me try. | 22:38 |
| clavis | escott: i am not sure, but i guess the entire harddrive is partitioned for the preinstalled win7 starter? | 22:38 |
| escott | Danny__, but if ping 8.8.8.8 works (ie packets are not being lost) you are by definition online. | 22:38 |
| Jordan_U | !xubuntu | s7r | 22:39 |
| ubottu | s7r: Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels | 22:39 |
| cyperbg | when I use gnome-terminal -x ./gpu1.sh is there a way to position the newly created screen where I want it? | 22:39 |
| n2diy_ | s7r, Xubuntu uses less resources then Ubuntu. | 22:39 |
| escott | clavis, that may be why. you can use gparted to shrink the windows partition and make space at the end of the disk for ubuntu | 22:39 |
| unperson | I'm still plugging long on 10.04 LTS and looking for a decent photo manager. I tried f-spot for a while but really didn't like using. Suggestions? It's a huge plus if tags are stored in such a way that I can switch to different software later without losing them. | 22:39 |
| erincribbs23 | is there a way to regress to 10.04 and reclaim old files? or has everything been destroyed? | 22:39 |
| bazhang | s7r, xfce4 for one, gnome for the other, not much difference in ram-hungriness though | 22:39 |
| escott | cyperbg, there are window matching rules in !ccsm you might try to change the terminal title and match on that | 22:39 |
| clavis | escott: thank you! gparted... ok, i go looking.. damn, i did not create a partition since the 90"s, im a little rusty :) | 22:40 |
| meganerd | Danny__: were you able to ping your gateway? | 22:40 |
| s7r | thanks | 22:40 |
| keithb | Danny__: it is still possible you messed up the firewall on your router, ping uses different packets to a dns lookup | 22:40 |
| KM0201 | erincribbs23: looking at your pastebin, i'd agree w/ oCean it looks like your entire partition was formatted and ubuntu was installed, i can't imagine there being a way to recover your data that *was* there | 22:41 |
| escott | erincribbs23, did you enable password protected home folder? | 22:41 |
| KM0201 | hard lesson to learn, do yo not have those pics backed up anywhere? | 22:41 |
| escott | erincribbs23, or has that alwasy been enabled | 22:41 |
| escott | erincribbs23, a shot in the dark would be that maybe your files are hidden below the ecryptfs mount | 22:42 |
| erincribbs23 | i believe it was enabled during upgrade | 22:42 |
| erincribbs23 | how can you find hidden files? | 22:42 |
| beermonster | any way to fully encrypt the complete ubuntu 10.10 drive using truecrypt or does it only support mount points? | 22:42 |
| iridium | beermonster, /boot cannot be encripted | 22:43 |
| bazhang | !uptime | 22:43 |
| beermonster | iridium - thanks, thats what I thought | 22:43 |
| erincribbs23 | it may have always been that way. i'm not sure. | 22:43 |
| escott | erincribbs23, create a new user account "hopeandpray", make it an admin, logout of erin, login as hopeandpray, use sudo -i to cd /home/erin | 22:43 |
| escott | erincribbs23, and hope and pray | 22:43 |
| erincribbs23 | how do i create a new account? | 22:44 |
| usr13 | ls -la | 22:44 |
| oCean | escott: that's a possibility. I'm not familiar with encrypted homedir | 22:44 |
| escott | erincribbs23, click on the ubuntu icon and type "user" and then click on users and groups | 22:44 |
| usr13 | erincribbs23: or just ls -a | 22:45 |
| erincribbs23 | escott, usr13, i will try. | 22:45 |
| escott | erincribbs23, if this doesn't work you could give the disk to somebody with some forensic software and they might recover it for lots of money (but get good people like fbi not best buy geek squad) | 22:45 |
| katmagic | beermonster: 'Full disk encryption' usually refers to encrypting everything but boot. There's really no data that's at all sensitive there. | 22:45 |
| erincribbs23 | should i encrypt the home folder? | 22:46 |
| escott | erincribbs23, for this new user no | 22:46 |
| erincribbs23 | ok. | 22:46 |
| katmagic | beermonster: The alternate installation disk has integrated support for (almost) full disk encryption. | 22:47 |
| erincribbs23 | can i switch users without losing my connection to this room? | 22:47 |
| escott | erincribbs23, you could start xchat/irssi with the other user, but you will drop out for a moment | 22:47 |
| escott | erincribbs23, its critical you completely log out erin | 22:47 |
| usr13 | escott: no | 22:47 |
| erincribbs23 | ok. hopefully i'll be right back. | 22:47 |
| escott | erincribbs23, why you type mount you should not see /home/erin/.Private mounted on ... | 22:48 |
| usr13 | sorry that was for erincribbs23 | 22:48 |
| escott | usr13, no what? | 22:48 |
| beermonster | katmagic - I'm using the laptop for a sensitive project in work - what level of encryption will the alternative install disk provide? AES256? | 22:48 |
| usr13 | escott: sorry that was for erincribbs23 | 22:48 |
| escott | k | 22:48 |
| clavis | escott: i freed 30 gb, but it did not help.. the alongside-option is still not there, and in the "other things" option it is marked as unusable, and i don\t really find a way to format only that part..? | 22:51 |
| escott | clavis, not sure what you mean by unusable. can you send a screenshot | 22:51 |
| phrostbite | Is there an application that can search a folder and all sub folders for duplicate folder or file names? | 22:52 |
| escott | phrostbite, a combination of find and uniq might do the trick. pipe find output to uniq -d | 22:53 |
| katmagic | beermonster: I think so. For some reason, I can't figure out what device name to give to cryptsetup luksDump. | 22:53 |
| phrostbite | I am sorry escott I have no idea what you just said. I am fairly new to ubuntu and have barely any linux experience. | 22:54 |
| Tonj | hello at all! i need an help! | 22:55 |
| katmagic | Ah, there we go. | 22:55 |
| bazhang | Tonj, ask a question then | 22:55 |
| Tonj | i have a SQL server on Ubuntu on my pc | 22:55 |
| soreau | What's the factoid to rearrange your titlebar buttons again? | 22:56 |
| clavis | escott: i am afraid i cant send a screenshot, this is first time i use ubuntu and indeed this comp... but under "allocate disk space" is said under "device" /dev/sda1 ntfs, /dev/sda2 and so on, and under the free space it says under "device" unusable.. | 22:56 |
| Tonj | on the VirtualBox i have Windows Xp, how i can use the sql server in windows xp? | 22:56 |
| bazhang | !controls | 22:56 |
| ubottu | Starting in Lucid, the minimize, maximize, and close buttons have been moved to the left side. For more informationand workarounds, please see http://pad.lv/532633 | 22:56 |
| katmagic | beermonster: It uses AES-256. | 22:56 |
| escott | phrostbite, find . -printf "%f\n" | uniq -d will list all repeated filenames | 22:56 |
| erincribbs23 | what is this rooms #? | 22:56 |
| brylie | Tonj: google XAMPP | 22:57 |
| erincribbs23 | i tried to log in and could not join irssi | 22:57 |
| bazhang | erincribbs23, #ubuntu | 22:57 |
| Tonj | brylie, what? | 22:57 |
| bazhang | !xampp | brylie Tonj | 22:57 |
| ubottu | brylie Tonj: We do not support XAMPP installs here. Please use the LAMP stack that is in our repositories; see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP for more information. | 22:57 |
| erincribbs23 | i'll try again. | 22:57 |
| escott | clavis, interesting i wonder why the device is marked as unusable | 22:57 |
| bazhang | brylie, you mean LAMP | 22:57 |
| brylie | bazhang, xampp | 22:57 |
| bazhang | !lamp | brylie | 22:57 |
| ubottu | brylie: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 22:57 |
| bazhang | brylie, not supported here, dont recommend it | 22:58 |
| beermonster | katmagic - very good, thanks for your help. Downloading alternative version right now. | 22:58 |
| brylie | bazhang, XAMPP runs on XP. I don't think that it is the answer Tonj is looking for though. | 22:58 |
| escott | clavis, not sure where to begin. you could send the output of fdisk -l and/or /proc/partitions | 22:58 |
| brylie | Tonj, you are wanting to connect to the MySQL instance in your host machine from the guest operating system correct? | 22:59 |
| Tonj | i like to use Sql server (in ubuntu) on my WIndows xp (virtualbox) how i can make it? | 22:59 |
| cmaxwell | use wamp for windows and lamp for linux | 22:59 |
| Tonj | yes brylie | 22:59 |
| faz_ | adwawd | 22:59 |
| brylie | Tonj, you might get better results if you ask this question in #virtualbox | 22:59 |
| Tonj | ok thanks | 23:00 |
| Giggaflop | anyone know how to manually update the package listings + dependency's for an offline natty box | 23:00 |
| Tonj | the node is freenode? | 23:00 |
| brylie | Tonj, yes. | 23:00 |
| Giggaflop | you know like apt-get update, but via USB stick :P | 23:00 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | i've got a display problem, and no words can describe it. have a look at this screen shot https://picasaweb.google.com/114384552799901223449/THIS_IS_INSANEDesktopScreenshot?authkey=Gv1sRgCNuTmq_s35irZg&feat=directlink, pay attention to the launcher. and windows aren't affected unless they're fullscreen | 23:00 |
| arooni-mobile | how do i set the ttl on ubuntu 11.04 to 65? | 23:00 |
| Giggaflop | THIS_IS_INSANE, lol | 23:01 |
| Giggaflop | thats funny | 23:01 |
| omergex | hi, i am use toshiba a300 2d4 notebook, ati hd3470. my temp very high. hdd temp is 50 temp... on windows 40 why? | 23:02 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | Giggaflop: thanks for your help... | 23:02 |
| erincribbs23 | ok... this is just not working for me. i can get back here just fine, but when i try to log into this room it says that the room is unknown and that i should try /join <#channel> | 23:02 |
| Giggaflop | sorry but thats bloody weird | 23:02 |
| erincribbs23 | that's on hopeandpray. | 23:02 |
| cmaxwell | brb | 23:02 |
| erincribbs23 | if escott or oCean are still here... let me know. | 23:03 |
| BigDaddyDuergar | what is the virtualbox channel? | 23:03 |
| escott | erincribbs23, i can see you | 23:03 |
| erincribbs23 | yay! | 23:03 |
| escott | erincribbs23, open a terminal and type sudo -i | 23:03 |
| erincribbs23 | ok | 23:03 |
| bazhang | BigDaddyDuergar, #vbox | 23:03 |
| escott | erincribbs23, then cd /home/erin. you can browse around in there use ls to list folder contents, and cd foldername to change folders, cd .. to go back to the parent folder | 23:03 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | Giggaflop: it just logged me out, I logged back in, and it fixed itself... WTF?! | 23:04 |
| Giggaflop | natty has been very buggy for me | 23:04 |
| escott | erincribbs23, my hope is that everything is there, but that it gets hidden when you login as erin by the encrypted contents... its a bit of a longshot | 23:04 |
| BigDaddyDuergar | vbox is a dead channel it seems. Noone ever responds. Still looking for an answer. :/ | 23:04 |
| bazhang | THIS_IS_INSANE, no cursing here, that includes acronyms | 23:04 |
| Giggaflop | i just went back to 10.04 and then crunchbang | 23:04 |
| THIS_IS_INSANE | bazhang: okay. | 23:04 |
| bazhang | BigDaddyDuergar, then ask one | 23:04 |
| erincribbs23 | it says that it's working on it but nothing is showing in the terminal after sudo -i | 23:05 |
| Giggaflop | anyone know how to manually update repo info? | 23:05 |
| escott | erincribbs23, and do run "mount" and make sure that /home/erin/.Private is not listed in the output | 23:05 |
| bazhang | Giggaflop, for crunchbang? try #crunchbang | 23:05 |
| Giggaflop | just like sudo apt-get update | 23:05 |
| josh__ | hi | 23:05 |
| Giggaflop | bazhang, for natty | 23:05 |
| BigDaddyDuergar | I did ask there. lol. I'll ask here. I want to install ubuntu, put virtualbox in ubuntu, create a Windows XP VM, and then run VMware inside of XP.. is that possible? | 23:05 |
| Giggaflop | sure BigDaddyDuergar | 23:05 |
| bazhang | BigDaddyDuergar, try it and see. lots of ram required though | 23:06 |
| Giggaflop | gonna be slow | 23:06 |
| KM0201 | BigDaddyDuergar: first, you'll probabl need abotu 10gigs of ram | 23:06 |
| josh__ | I'm having some issues clicking... | 23:06 |
| BigDaddyDuergar | i have 8 gigs. Is there a VMware for ubuntu? | 23:06 |
| tester123 | is http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ maintained by actual ubuntu employees? | 23:06 |
| bazhang | josh__, then tell us, on a single line | 23:06 |
| escott | erincribbs23, after sudo -i you should get a terminal prompt. run "mount" and make sure /home/erin/.Private is not included | 23:06 |
| bazhang | BigDaddyDuergar, sure there is. check their homepage | 23:06 |
| KM0201 | BigDaddyDuergar: you might pull it off w/ 8gigs... 4gigs for host, 4gigs for the first guest, then the second guest would get 2gigs off of the second 4gigs. | 23:07 |
| BigDaddyDuergar | sweet. let me kick over to ubuntu and find it. thanks! I'll be back | 23:07 |
| josh__ | sorry, anyways. the issue is in some instances, i won't be able to click on either the wondow im in, the task bar, or anything at all (it varies from time to time ending in the ladder, usually) | 23:07 |
| bazhang | tester123, you mean canonical. contact the PPA maintainers for that | 23:07 |
| hugogee | greetz all :D | 23:07 |
| josh__ | -10.4 | 23:08 |
| erincribbs23 | i'm confused. it's not giving me the prompt | 23:08 |
| billy2007 | have i got to own a copy of windows to use it on virtualbox | 23:08 |
| billy2007 | ? | 23:08 |
| bazhang | josh__, window decorator / compiz issue then? | 23:08 |
| bazhang | billy2007, yes | 23:08 |
| josh__ | no, it's a fresh install | 23:08 |
| escott | erincribbs23, ok do ctrl-c maybe you have a random character at the end. "sudo -i" no quotes around it should ask for your password | 23:09 |
| josh__ | only things i have installed were java, xchat, and wine | 23:09 |
| josh__ | on and chrome | 23:09 |
| bazhang | josh__, that has no relation to the freshness of the install | 23:09 |
| josh__ | oh; | 23:09 |
| hugogee | i am using 10.10 and i dont see .Xresources file? has it been deprecated? | 23:09 |
| bazhang | hugogee, to accomplish what exactly | 23:09 |
| hugogee | terminal colors | 23:09 |
| hugogee | My terminal is xfce4-term.. | 23:10 |
| billy2007 | bazhang, what on disk? | 23:10 |
| billy2007 | :( | 23:10 |
| hugogee | bazhang, where would i drop my color settings? | 23:11 |
| bazhang | billy2007, of course. ask in ##windows | 23:11 |
| Chirpis | onsortium | 23:11 |
| billy2007 | bazhang, all i want it for is to jailbreak my iphone is there a way to do that on ubuntu | 23:11 |
| Viking667 | sheesh. Off for a whole hour and I didn't even notice. | 23:12 |
| bazhang | billy2007, never heard of that on ubuntu. | 23:12 |
| escott | erincribbs23, your connection is so flaky im not sure if you are getting my messages | 23:12 |
| claviusmond | any good samaritan to send me an invite to joine freenode/apache? | 23:12 |
| erincribbs23 | escott, ok. so i can only run another terminal prompt when i'm not in xchat. just won't allow for some reason. i'm getting them. | 23:12 |
| bazhang | claviusmond, register. #freenode for help | 23:13 |
| josh__ | billy2007, maybe jailbreakme.com or jailbreak.me (which one i forgot...) through the phone itself? | 23:13 |
| escott | erincribbs23, are you in the gui? or the console? | 23:13 |
| bazhang | !register > claviusmond | 23:13 |
| ubottu | claviusmond, please see my private message | 23:13 |
| phrostbite | Can anybody suggest a pretty good twitter client? | 23:13 |
| erincribbs23 | how can i tell? | 23:13 |
| Viking667 | phrostbite: gui or textmode? | 23:13 |
| Viking667 | i use bitlbee, and irssi. | 23:13 |
| phrostbite | Gui | 23:13 |
| claviusmond | ubottu, I cannot see private messages | 23:13 |
| ubottu | claviusmond: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:13 |
| bazhang | phrostbite, gwibber? apt-cache search twitter | 23:13 |
| Viking667 | ah. | 23:13 |
| claviusmond | a, great | 23:13 |
| bazhang | claviusmond, /join #freenode <-------- | 23:14 |
| Strav | He. Anyone familiar with autofs? | 23:14 |
| escott | erincribbs23, can you just start multile gnome-terminals by going to the ubuntu icon and typing terminal and clicking on the icon, do it a couple times | 23:14 |
| keithb | Giggaflop: have you looked at atp-cdrom add | 23:14 |
| escott | erincribbs23, upper left of the screen | 23:14 |
| josh__ | bazhang, so how would i check compiz, or window decorator? (because i'm fairly certain i would have had to hace compiz installed from the get go.) | 23:14 |
| escott | erincribbs23, the terminal you used to start xchat you can just minimize and ignore, and use the other terminals | 23:15 |
| erincribbs23 | got it. | 23:15 |
| erincribbs23 | have command line: root@snuggls:~# | 23:15 |
| erincribbs23 | what now? | 23:15 |
| escott | erincribbs23, run "mount" make sure /home/erin/.Private is not listed on the left | 23:16 |
| billy2007 | josh__, so i just visit this site on my iphone is it safe :S | 23:16 |
| WillPittenger | How do you get to the Apt manager? | 23:16 |
| erincribbs23 | it is. what does that mean? | 23:16 |
| WillPittenger | The "Ubuntu Software Center" is junk. | 23:16 |
| josh__ | i myself jailbroke mine via windows, but i believe it's fine, feel free to do some research though. | 23:16 |
| escott | erincribbs23, it means that your erin account is not logged out | 23:16 |
| WillPittenger | But I can't find the Apt tools in 11.0. | 23:16 |
| erincribbs23 | ok. brb | 23:17 |
| billy2007 | josh__, thank-you | 23:17 |
| hugogee | Can anyone please tell me where i can changee default terminal colors in 10.10? | 23:17 |
| lake | I restarted my machine today and was booted into BusyBox shell. I can only boot into BusyBox. I have tried the "check" | 23:18 |
| lake | option from gparted and it failed. | 23:18 |
| escott | erincribbs23, i need to run, someone else on the channel should be able to help, explain to them that you want to logout and umount erin's ecryptfs folder and look under it to see the real /home/erin, and that you have a user account with admin rights for exactly that purpose | 23:18 |
| Viking667 | hugogee: I think that's via the "Edit->Profiles" setting | 23:19 |
| josh__ | Anybody else able to help with my lacking of the ability to click? 10.4, ran 9.10 via dual boot, and it hasn't ever given me this problem before (te installw as on an external) | 23:22 |
| sw0rdfish | to show me ram usage should I trust free or htop more? | 23:23 |
| Viking667 | josh__: checked the obvious things? | 23:23 |
| sw0rdfish | free shows 1230 used out of 1499 while htop shows 734 used haha, this is weird... | 23:23 |

| htmlinprogress | hi | 23:24 |
| Viking667 | ... yeah | 23:24 |
| josh__ | it is. | 23:24 |
| Viking667 | usb or ps2? | 23:24 |
| josh__ | usb. | 23:24 |
| WillPittenger | Never mind. Found it. :p | 23:25 |
| Viking667 | does replugging it change anything | 23:25 |
| josh__ | no | 23:25 |
| Viking667 | restarted X yet? | 23:25 |
| josh__ | No, how would i go about doing that? | 23:26 |
| Viking667 | first I want to try something | 23:26 |
| josh__ | okay | 23:26 |
| Viking667 | $ ls /dev/input/ | 23:26 |
| Viking667 | tell me what that says | 23:27 |
| josh__ | one sec... i can't currently click menu bars... | 23:27 |
| josh__ | be right back... | 23:27 |
| Viking667 | if I have any typos, I apologise, I'm relearning dvorak | 23:27 |
| marsfligth | i set updatedb in cron. how can i force it to run minimized or hidden? | 23:28 |
| Viking667 | that runs hidden by default | 23:29 |
| josh__ | Viking667, it says by-id by-path event0 event1 event2 event3 event4 mice mouse0 mouse1 | 23:29 |
| marsfligth | Viking667: my not | 23:29 |
| josh__ | had to close the winow i was in to get to terminal | 23:29 |
| koppe | After formatting and installing 11.04, my Eee refuses to hibernate (suspend to disk), and reboots instead (suspend to RAM is OK)... | 23:30 |
| Viking667 | $ cat /dev/input/mouse0 | 23:30 |
| koppe | Are there any logs or such I can check to determent what is wrong? | 23:30 |
| cwheeler | I built the git kernel as shown on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild, when I install it it has a failure building the nvidia module. what will I have to do to get the nvidia driver to work? | 23:30 |
| josh__ | be right back again | 23:30 |
| Viking667 | and Ctl-c that after | 23:30 |
| koppe | Or are there any known problems it's likely to be? | 23:30 |
| josh__ | ok | 23:30 |
| Viking667 | andeee | 23:30 |
| Viking667 | bugg...ah | 23:31 |
| Viking667 | he left... | 23:31 |
| marsfligth | Viking667: should be fault of this: http://gnome-schedule.sourceforge.net. I used a gui instead the normal shell | 23:31 |
| Viking667 | marsfligth: oh. | 23:31 |
| josh__ | Viking667, told me permission denied. | 23:32 |
| BigDaddyDuergar | anyone here use VMWare for linux? I load a VM I made with the windows version, and VMWare closes. No error or anything. #vmware is dead atm. | 23:32 |
| Viking667 | updatedb is usually run from cron anyhow, and it's normally a standalone thing that you never usually run by hand | 23:32 |
| duckx0r | any ideas why `sudo service mysql restart` just hangs and the server never comes up? | 23:32 |
| Viking667 | and updatedb normally has to be run as root. (i.e. sudo updatedb) | 23:32 |
| === derp_ is now known as \dev\random | ||
| Viking667 | josh__: hm. | 23:33 |
| Viking667 | try again from mouse1, and move the mouse around a little, then Ctl-C it. | 23:33 |
| josh__ | ok | 23:33 |
| josh__ | Viking667, same thing | 23:34 |
| Viking667 | let me guess, permission denied again? | 23:34 |
| Viking667 | oh. | 23:34 |
| Viking667 | try those both as root...i.e. sudo cat /dev/input/mouse0 ctl-c that after wiggling the mouse a bit | 23:35 |
| Viking667 | by the way, | 23:35 |
| josh__ | hm? | 23:35 |
| Viking667 | you can often get menu by F10, using the arrow keys and using enter to select | 23:35 |
| kingofswords | what does (hd0,1) mean in menu.lst? | 23:35 |
| Viking667 | Find out what your keyboard shortcuts are | 23:35 |
| josh__ | mmk, but the taskbar wouldn't wor either | 23:35 |
| Viking667 | josh__: see what Ctl-Escape does | 23:36 |
| koppe | kingofworlds: 1st HDD (hda or sda) and 2nd partition (ie. hda2 or sda2) | 23:37 |
| Viking667 | josh__: by the way, on my Ubuntu system (your mileage may vary)... | 23:37 |
| Viking667 | whoops.... nother quiver. | 23:38 |
| kingofswords | koppe, so if my windows is on 2nd partition do i need (hd0,2) | 23:38 |
| codazoda | I have a macbook with efi. I didn't think the grub_bios partition was necessary (since I don't have a bios). I deleted it. | 23:38 |
| Viking667 | that one made my heart jump. | 23:38 |
| kingofswords | i only have 1 hdd | 23:38 |
| josh__ | Viking667, what was the command again? | 23:38 |
| josh__ | it completly locked me out click wise | 23:38 |
| Viking667 | try those both as root...i.e. sudo cat /dev/input/mouse0 ctl-c that after wiggling the mouse a bit | 23:38 |
| Viking667 | and... | 23:38 |
| Viking667 | on my system at least, Alt-F1 brings up the main menu. | 23:39 |
| codazoda | I've restored most of it. Now I get a "grub>" prompt when I boot. I can boot if I type "root ..." then "kernel ..." then "initrd ..." then "boot". But, how do I get it to "stick"? | 23:39 |
| digitaldefector | firefox and banshee and flash are all buggy after update, what should I do? | 23:39 |
| dtcrshr | im wondering about updating from 10.10 to 11 | 23:39 |
| Viking667 | "buggy"? | 23:40 |
| binni | how can I get the height and width of a SWF file in Ubuntu 11.04? | 23:40 |
| dtcrshr | will i be prompted to enter the classic view, without unity? | 23:40 |
| digitaldefector | Viking667, freeze | 23:40 |
| Viking667 | I suspect that's a known issue, but I'm not sure. I'm having issues with ff+flash at the moment. | 23:40 |
| Viking667 | digitaldefector: ouch. | 23:40 |
| roxton | Dumb question: What's the magic executable I can use from a command line to open a file with its default handler? | 23:40 |
| codazoda | What is Ubuntu's boot loader configuration tool that would update grub so I don't have to type commands every time I boot? | 23:41 |
| digitaldefector | Viking667, not so impressive when showing off my desktop | 23:41 |
| jpds | codazoda: /etc/default/grub and update-grub. | 23:41 |

| qdii | A friend of mine gave his former hard drive to me, which contains two lvm partitions: lv_root and lv_home, in hope that I can save his documents | 23:42 |
| codazoda | jpds: Odly, I don't have /etc/default/grub and update-grub says it's not installed. Could I be booting without it installed (would the install CD have done some magic so I didn't need it)? | 23:43 |

| === jesse is now known as jesse2 | ||
| jpds | codazoda: Do you have grub-pc installed? | 23:43 |
| qdii | I have the password that opens the computer, but using: cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/vg_hera/lv_root ainaRoot | 23:43 |

| jesse2 | Hello. I just installed ubuntu 10.04. During the live CD installation, I was able to see all the wireless access points on my network and the wireless card worked great. Immediately after installation and reboot, I was unable to see any of the wireless access points. | 23:44 |

| josh__ | Viking667, okay, mouse0 did nothing, but mouse1 threw up a munch of jargen | 23:45 |
| Viking667 | hm. Josh not back? | 23:45 |
| josh__ | what? | 23:45 |
| codazoda | jpds: I lied. update-grub did actually run. | 23:45 |
| Viking667 | sorry about that, all. | 23:45 |
| josh__ | okay | 23:46 |
| Viking667 | josh not back yet? | 23:46 |
| Viking667 | ahh, there you are. So, what results? | 23:46 |
| danie39 | is there a way to change the desktop background of different desktops ?for eexample have desktop 1 be a sunrise desktop 2 be a midday picture and desktop 3 be sunset | 23:46 |
| josh__ | Mouse 0- nothing mouse1- lots of jargen | 23:46 |
| codazoda | jpds: Found my stuff. I believe I've done this before, however, and I'll still get the prompt when I reboot. I'm about | 23:46 |
| codazoda | to try. If I do get the prompt still, thoughts? | 23:46 |
| Viking667 | josh__: good. now, when you go back to the test, try just clicking each button. If you get data, then I'll send you on to the next test. | 23:47 |
| Viking667 | you know mouse1 works... | 23:47 |
| josh__ | i don't think i did when i was clicking | 23:47 |
| codazoda | jpds: Could grub not be looking at /boot on sda2? Maybe it's looking elsewhere for it's config? How can I tell? | 23:47 |
| josh__ | i tried, only thre stuff up when i moved | 23:47 |
| josh__ | Viking667, I'll double check real quick | 23:48 |
| Viking667 | hm. I'd blame the mouse in that case But do try that again, to make absolutely sure. | 23:48 |
| dabarons | will installing league of legends on a vmware actually work? I mean how crippled will the gfx card be in a vm? | 23:48 |

| Viking667 | screensilently: figure out what unetbootin does, try to duplicate that. | 23:55 |
| Viking667 | because that roughly does what you need. | 23:55 |
| KM0201 | hopeandpray: not about this subject, unfortunately... if you really want to have someone try to recover that stuff.. 1. it's going to cost you.. a lot... and 2. the more you tinker with it, the less chance of even a partial recovery there is. | 23:55 |
| hopeandpray | i can't find my photos. i did a re-install from disk and chose the option for it NOT to touch my file folders from 10.04. i can't find any of my files. | 23:55 |
