DriversFixedI give up on ubuntu... 3rd crash this week00:00
shockratesis there a kde application to show the globe?00:00
sudokillDriversFixed, what crashed?00:00
katmagicsudokill?00:00
hopeandpraykatmagic, what's next?00:00
Viking667lake: you probably won't get around that.00:00
DriversFixedsudokill:  I don't know, but basically the system hung00:00
lake"Cannot open /dev/sda", Viking66700:01
Viking667lake: then it probably doesn't think you have one.00:01
Viking667lake: try this:  dmesg | grep sda00:01
kingofswordscan i edit grub.cfg00:01
Viking667Don't paste the results here, but tell me if that returns anything00:01
lakeViking667: durr, when i run with sudo i get better output :p00:01
Viking667ahhh. lol.00:01
katmagicI don't really know much about forensics, but some of those programs might help you recover things.00:01

digitaldefectorsince ubuntu has integrated  software, will the community have a gnome-shell distro,while providing the same integration?00:02
Guest44636Hello.  Having issues with the Broadcom Linux STA wireless driver (it worked on the liveCD, but not after installation/reboot).  Anyone have a solution?00:02
lake/dev/sda1 is marked for boot00:02
[THC]AcidRainkatmagic: how would i rate limit?00:02
Guest44636this is for ubuntu 11.0400:02
hopeandpraywhat program was it you suggested? i really don't know what i'm doing.00:02
Viking667lake: is it ext2/3/4?00:02
lakeext400:02
BernardVhopeandpray: 'apt-cache search foremost' -> foremost - Forensics application to recover data00:02
Viking667lake: and, if you try "sudo fsck -f -y -v /dev/sda1", does it work?00:03
dj0s0#ubuntu00:03
hopeandprayBernardV, thanks. i'll try it.00:03
katmagicI've heard good things about sleuthkit. If you don't know what you're doing though, I'm not sure you'll want to recover data on your own.00:03
katmagicDo you have a large drive you can use for backup?00:03
lakeViking667: Device or resource busy00:03
hopeandprayyes00:03
katmagicIf so, you should copy your entire drive byte for byte.00:03
BernardVhopeandpray: run like: foremost -t zip -i /dev/vda100:03
Viking667lake: hmmm.00:03
hopeandprayok.00:04
BernardVhopeandpray: That will search for "zip" files on interface...00:04
BernardVMore options available ofcourse00:04
sudokillhopeandpray, yes backup because the more u use the drive the more chance of them being overwritten00:04
katmagichopeandpray: dcfldd will help you do that.00:04
katmagic(By that, I mean copy your drive.)00:04
katmagicg2g.00:04
lakeViking667: this happened suddenly. super weird.00:04
lakejust rebooted and it's busted00:04
BernardVhopeandpray: sudokill has a good point! Best is to boot from a live cd and don't use the drive.. mount it RO00:05
KM0201sudokill: i tried explaining that to him..00:05
sudokillok sorry00:05
Viking667lake: try lsof00:05
sudokilli think hes pretty screwed though00:05
sudokillsadly00:05
KM0201sudokill: so do i, unfortunately.. this is gonna be a very hard lesson for him.00:05
lakeViking667: woah00:05
Viking667lake: bugg..ah. Sorry about that.00:05
lapagahopeandpray, you should also mention to those who were not helping you before that you have (had) an encrypted home dir and maybe even the pastebin number00:05
sudokillmy dad ALWAYS puts family photos etc straight on dvd00:06
Viking667lake: lsof | less00:06
StravAnyone got autofs to managed a cifs share on 11.04?!00:06
KM0201sudokill: if he's serious about possibly getting them back, he needs to immediately turn that PC off, and stop dinking with it, and take it to someone who knwos what they are doing.00:06
Viking667then search for sda100:06
KM0201but that is gonna cost $$$00:06
lakeViking667: this is my first time using lsof. that is cool!00:06
sudokillyes it will, if it was me id forget about it theyre only photos and take it as a lesson learned00:06
Viking667lol. it's a bit overwhelming00:06
hopeandprayBernardV, i am funning foremost and the terminal says processing: stdin. what does that mean?00:07
hopeandpray*running00:07
hopeandpraynot funning00:07
hopeandprayhah00:07
KM0201sudokill: they're apparently wedding and first born photos.00:07
hopeandprayyup yup00:07
KM0201only copy of course00:07
BernardVhopeandpray: Did you specify -i /path/to/your/drive/in/dev/ ?00:07
hopeandpraywasn't told to.00:08
KM0201hopeandpray: seriously, stop... turn the PC off... the more you dink w/ this, the less chance you have of someone who actually knows what they are doing, being able to fix this.00:08
sudokillhopeandpray, no idea how good this is but found this random prog http://extundelete.sourceforge.net/00:08
hopeandprayKM0201, if you don't want to help me, that's fine. Other's apparently do, so butt out!00:08
escotthopeandpray, yes00:08
sudokillbackup and try it if ur desperate00:08
BernardVhopeandpray: Take the advice KM0201 said... pull out the hdd and go to a friend ;)00:09
kaushalhi00:09
escotthopeandpray, how are things going00:09
hopeandpraybadly00:09
kaushalis TB 5.0 available in 11.04 ?00:09
KM0201hopeandpray: its not that i don't want to.... it's just that the more you dink w/ this, the more likely it becomes you never get your stuff back, stop using the drive, and take the drive to someone who knows what they are doing00:09
BernardVhopeandpray: Are you working of that HDD?00:09
sudokillhopeandpray, hes not trying to offend you. he is saying the more you use the drive, the data might become unrecoverable (if it isnt already)00:09
lakeViking667: not sure what pattr to look for. I tried | grep sda00:09
lakepattern(00:09
Viking667brb00:09
hopeandprayBernardV, i don't know what that means.00:10
sudokillhopeandpray i got a good idea00:10
KM0201hopeandpray: you only have one hard drive in the laptop, right?00:10
BernardVhopeandpray: Let me rephrase.. Is it you main drive?00:10
KM0201BernardV: i'm pretty sure, its a laptop.00:10
hopeandpraythere's only one drive.00:10
BernardVKM0201: Thanks :)00:10
sudokillhopeandpray download partedmagic and burn to disk, it has a program called photorec thats supposedly "data recovery"00:10
hopeandprayis it reliable?00:10
KM0201lol00:11
lakeViking667: thanks for the help, i'm going to reboot and see if i get lucky00:11
sudokillwell its included on parted magic so it must be good00:11
KM0201"is it reliable"... you're obviously making tons of progress now...00:11
BernardVhopeandpray: Get another computer, burn a live CD, mount the HDD read only and let the forensic software write all "deleted" bytes to an USB drive or so...00:11
sudokillhopeandpray,  http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec00:12
escotthopeandpray, were you able to check the /home/erin folder when /home/erin/.Private was not mounted?00:12
what_ifIs there an " rc.local " file in Ubuntu distros? Or is it called something else?00:12
hopeandpraywow... slow down.00:12
sudokillhopeandpray, try photorec and read up on it00:12
hopeandprayBernardV, ok. I will try it on the desktop.00:13
sudokillthats all i can say00:13
Viking667what_if: there is, but I've no idea why it's there.00:13
hopeandpraysudokill, i tried that site earlier and couldn't get it to work.00:13
sudokillwell it will work...00:13
sudokillfind out why it doesnt work?00:13
hopeandprayescott, haven't tried. i know /home/erin .Private is not mounted now.00:13
BernardVhopeandpray: But please don't run your computer on a drive which has deleted files (like told before here..). HDD's work like this: If the file is deleted and it needs some space to write it will use that space, so the deleted file will be corrupted and then there is no chance of getting it back. Every command you type in a terminal will write to disk (bash_history, logs, etc..)00:13
minimecwhat_if: /etc/rc.local00:13
hopeandpraysudokill, ok.00:13
Goliathhey i am using a kde widget (system monitor) and it has an option hardware temperature, but i dont have any sensor installed. how can i do it?00:14
escottBernardV, the reality is that if the files are lost then entire partition has been overwritten by a reinstall, some tinkering isn't going to cause much loss for her00:14
what_ifminimec: is it set to execute by default (am not on ubuntu ATM) or does it need a +x  ?00:14
sudokillhopeandpray, like i said, download partedmagic, burn it to disk (all with ur desktop) and photorec is already on there... working00:14
sudokillits a livecd00:14
hopeandprayBernardV, speaking of our desktop, we re-installed by disk on that coumputer also. it didn't touch our files then, so i'm not sure why it did it to my laptop.00:14
sudokillyou must have done it wrong00:15
escotthopeandpray, if /home/erin/.Private is not listed in the output of mount then there is some slight chance that sudo ls /home/erin will show the old contents00:15
hopeandpraysudokill, that's what i'm starting to think.00:15
BernardVescott: Ah ok, stepped in late, didn't know that.00:15
hopeandprayescott, how could i find out?00:15
minimecwhat_if: exectuable by default.00:15
escottBernardV, its ok. your saying the right thing.00:16
lapagaescott, hopeandpray I know nothing but looking at your pastebin it seems that /home/erin/.Private is still there and am not sure it would be if you had wiped it in a install.  like I said I do not know much though00:16
escotthopeandpray, just run "sudo ls /home/erin/some/path/to/a/photo/folder"00:16
sudokillhopeandpray, try partedmagic with photorec then. idk how desperate u r. if i could tell u a sure way to get it all back i would, but afaik there isnt such a way00:16
what_ifminimec: thanks for the help and patience... debugging this for someone else :)00:16
hopeandprayBernardV, escott is right. you didn't have all the info. i really appreciate you trying to help.00:16
hopeandpraylet me repost then.00:16
escotthopeandpray, but that would only work if you do NOT see /home/erin/.Private listed in the output of "mount" if you do see it listed then "erin" is still logged in the command "w" (yes a single letter) will tell you what terminal00:17
itaylor57KM0201, bur recovering lost files works always on TV "automagically"00:18
BernardVhopeandpray: You have a desktop? If your hdd in your laptop is a sata drive you can connect is easily. And most laptop drives are fixed with 2 small philipsheads..00:19
KM0201itaylor57: yup, all we gotta do is call that computer chick on criminal minds... she'll figure it out.00:19

escotthopeandpray, you can run "sudo ls -a /home/erin" and it will show the underlying contents of erin's folder, it might have the old contents00:22
LinuxGuy2009When you look at an Ubuntu package mirror, and I see they have folders such as release name like (Lucid) and they also have Lucid-Updates. Am I correct in assuming that all of the packages in the main Lucid folder are the ones from the first initial release and never change? But if any packages were updated after the initial release that they all go into the updates directory and stay there, and dont ever get moved to the main folder for00:22

BernardVHamsterLord: Download the "deb" on another computer and install them with "dpkg -i file.deb"00:33
FluttershyFanmy computer ran windows just fine00:34
Jordan_UFluttershyFan: I was the one who mentioned that I could make you an image that could be dd'd directly to the hard drive. I wouldn't call that "completely resetting" the hard drive, though it will make all data currently on the drive irrecoverable (or at least very difficult to recover).00:34
HamsterLordIs it possible to get the deb from a repository on windows?00:34
lakeViking667: maybe you have suggestions on data recovery tools?00:34
FluttershyFanjordan, sure ill try it00:34
BernardVHamsterLord: Sure00:34
sudokillFluttershyFan, maybe a bad ubuntu disc? unlikely though00:34

HamsterLordNot all00:35
Viking667lake: so, fsck.ext4 -v -v /dev/sda100:35
HamsterLordJust certain programs and updates00:35
sudokillFluttershyFan, formatting the hdd will be enough00:35
Jordan_UFluttershyFan: What computers do you currently have at your disposal, with what operating systems, and what media (USB drives, blank CDs) ?00:35
Viking667err, prepend that with the usual sudo /sbin/fsck.ext4....00:35
bazhangHamsterLord, just use wired internet to get the updates then00:35

Gskelligand a bunch of icons look different01:10
Gskelligmy top bar and terminal background used to be black now they're white, out of nowhere01:10
FluttershyFanim prett sure its virutal because I can take out the cd and it runs01:10
Jordan_UFluttershyFan: So it's a bootable Windows XP CD, presumably BartPE? ("virtual" is the wrong word to use)01:11
BernardVHamsterLord: google gave me wap/wap for etisalat01:11
HamsterLordThanks bernadv01:11
FluttershyFanwhat do you mean by virutal then?01:11
HamsterLordAnd I know the acess number is *99#01:12
HamsterLordSo that should be all the authentication, so I'll download the stuff and switch to linux to see if it works01:12
Jordan_UFluttershyFan: That doesn't make it virtual. If you can eject the CD and have it continue running though it sounds like you should be able to use that system to burn an Ubuntu 11.04 CD.01:12
sudokillFluttershyFan, virtual normally means u install something like virtualbox on ur OS, and u can run other OS's in the program01:12
BernardVHamsterLord: You'll also need the APN01:12

[an]droidmanGskellig: system settings > appearance > choose ambiance01:14
Gskellighow did it change automatically like that?01:14
FluttershyFanoh what? thats not what im talking about. im talking about a cd where it loads windows xp into the ram all by its self, not needing help from another operating system, infact, I dont even need my hard drive in the computer to startup windows xp from the cd01:14

Gskelligthe task bar and stuff01:15
HamsterLordBernardV isn't the access number provider specific? or modem specific?01:15
Jordan_UFluttershyFan: Understood. Don't call that "virtual" in the future. It's not the correct word and leads to confusion.01:15

SektorXIsudokill: it's like this on every disk. :/01:36
sudokill:s01:36
sudokillif its doing it on windows, and linux, *surely* its the drive? unless the drive doesnt support those discs?01:37
SektorXIsudokill: the ridiculous thing is however, is they are all Memorex DVD-RW's.01:37
sudokillother than that i dont have  aclue :(01:37
Poindexter_Mneptok I was wondering if the 127.0.0.1 command was the same with Linux as with Windows. Or for that matter UNIX.01:37
SektorXIsudokill: Hm, maybe it is. unfortunately for me I have no way of confirming that.01:37
mneptokPoindexter_: yes, it is. the file syntax is the same01:38
SektorXIsudokill: thanks anyway, bud.01:38
Poindexter_Mneptok, thanks for that heads up.01:38

dksoba88If I use killall something1.0 I will kill all of the something1.0 processes, but the problem is I have processes named something* where star is a wildcard01:42
=== \dev\random is now known as derp|gone
dksoba88can I just do killall something*?01:42
Random832dksoba88: pkill uses regexes01:43
Random832so you could pkill '^something'01:43
dksoba88Random832, Thanks.01:43
ZykoticK9dksoba88, you have a process with a * in it?  Wow, what is it?01:43

sudokillor the same01:49

cpgomneptok, I don't see any option for video playback but at least I extended the time01:51
sudokillleeloo__, no why would you want to?01:51
mobodoleeloo__: you should be able to associate each driver to a card and each display to a card in your xorg.conf01:51
madmni plan on doing the install tonight01:51
cwheelerI 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?01:51
sudokillleeloo__, i think the bios disbles onboard when u plug in a proper card anyway01:51
Jordan_Umadmn: Ahh, if it's just going to be used for email and ftp (not sftp?) then you might want to go with Ubuntu server. Note that setting up a proper mail server with any distribution (or any OS for that matter) is going to be difficult.01:51

Jordan_UKM0201: kingofswords' problem isn't with the mbr though.02:05
sudokillkingofswords, dont you have to log in for games for windows? arent things saved online?02:05

kingofswordsi had same issue b4when i resized my partition....i just reinstlled xp and was fine02:07
w30Rivenge, its been a while since I did it , some where around 1024 port range.02:07
kingofswordsbut i remember some1 on here came up with a solution by copying there grub.cfg after i reinstalled02:07
sudokillkingofswords, if i was you, id backup the gta4 save file, format the disk as ntfs with gparted (so it's aligned correctly for ssd)02:07
sudokillxp doesnt align correctly for ssd by default02:08
kingofswordssudokill,  what does mis-alogned mean?02:08
RivengeYeah w30 I think I had read something about that, but I didn't think it applied. I'll have to do some more reading02:08
sudokillits to do with the start sector,02:08
sudokillit has to be divisible by 51202:08
kingofswordsahh ok02:09
h00kdanie749: there's one you can use called redshift02:09
sudokillthat way youd have a clean drive,  proper aligned for the ssd and youd be able to boot02:09
w30Rivenge, I believe Windows does passive ftp as default.02:09
trentAnyone know about setting up rausb0 on network interface?02:09

ryan_anyone know how to get pidgin in the mail applet indicator thing?02:20
jes10000*disk not drive02:20
Jeruvyjes10000: once you run the tool, and plugin the drive, you should see it detected.  Then select the filesystem and click on 'erase disk'.02:20
jes10000Jeruvy: did that02:21
Jeruvyjes10000: then during the install, you should get a message saying it needs authentication to install the bootloader02:21
jes10000Jeruvy: I authenticated. a couple times02:21
danie749h00k, thanks again02:21
Jeruvyjes10000: then I'd try another usb02:22

BPowerHey all!  My Ubuntu-only PC won't boot.  I just added two HDDs (SATA).  All of them are SATA2 but two are plugged into SATA3 ports.  In BIOS, it recognizes the one drive that's plugged into the SATA2 port as an option in the Boot menu. The other two are recognized but in a completely different screen "Drive Xpert Setup Utility".02:41
BPowerMy Boot HDD is among the drives in that screen02:42
BPowerIt's labeled under Port 1 (after Port 0)02:42
sudokillBPower, thats an asus setting, you can disable it02:42
BPowersudokill, ok...  "Update to Normal Mode"?02:43
sudokillyea drive xpert does some raid thing autmoatically02:43
sudokilli never used it02:43
sudokillbut if you just want the 2 drives seperately then disable it02:44
BPowerThere's three options: "Update to Nomal Mode", "Update to EZ Backup", and "Update To Super Speed"02:44
BPowerthere are*02:44
sudokillnormal mode02:44
sudokilli think super speed dos some raid 0 thing02:44
BPowerso these are just user-friendly names for raid-X is seems02:44
sudokillive never played with it but normal mode is safe02:44
INeedANewNickUm, I'm sort of an ubuntu noob.  Could someone help me shrink my boot partition?02:46

edbianINeedANewNick: sure.  Do you need to edit your / partition?02:47
edbianINeedANewNick: How many partitions you got?02:47
cant0rEmpathy gives the same problem02:47
INeedANewNickI don't know what that means02:47
aminany body home02:47
amin??02:47
edbianINeedANewNick: How many partitions do you have?02:47
sudokillINeedANewNick, use gparted and extend the free space at the end, if you havent got that then split the boot partition02:47
INeedANewNickAgh I don't know how many.  By the way, I was the person who was called driversfixed.02:47
MisterXhi there02:47
INeedANewNickedbian:  no idea, I suppose 1?  is that the default?  No idea how linux filesystem works.  sudokill ok02:47
edbianINeedANewNick: I didn't talk to you before but I don't think that matters.02:48
MisterXi've got some problems with gdm/x1102:48
edbianINeedANewNick: Do you have gparted installed?02:48
INeedANewNickedbian, yes you did, I've changed nicks, and no, I don't have it installed02:48
sudokillINeedANewNick, gparted will tell you. do fdisk -l in terminal itll show you02:48
sudokillor df02:48
dr_willis'sudo fdisk -l'02:48
BPowersudokill, weird.  It said "This mode only allows one hard drive to function in the SATA connector."02:48
aminsudo dead02:48
MisterXwhen starting normally, the system wont get past the login-screen (gdm), nothing will work (neither sysrq nor changing to tty)02:48
aminkill02:48
sudokillBPower, are the drives blank?02:48
edbianINeedANewNick: gparted will help you edit your partitions.  sudo fdisk -l  in the terminal will show you (in CLI) what partitions you ahve.02:48
BPowersudokill, nope02:49
MisterXit has sth to do with a missing driver which is part of libutouch-grail102:49
MisterXreinstalling the package changes nothing02:49
MisterXthe driver's still missing02:49

BPowersudokill, thanks02:50
cant0rEmpathy still wont connect to AIM or Yahoo02:50
edbianINeedANewNick: You don't have a boot partition.  Why you wanna shrink it ? (It doesn't exist)02:50
sudokillBPower, yes like raid002:50
INeedANewNickedbian:  Don't you remember me?  The person who installed ubuntu onto an external hdd and it fixed all my driver issues?  :p02:50
INeedANewNickedbian:  then what am I booting from.  i must have bad linux vocab02:51
edbianINeedANewNick: Umm vaguely remember you.  What is the issue then?  I see that your 1TB hdd is messed up02:51
edbianINeedANewNick: It says 'doesn't contain a valid partition table'02:52
edbianor02:52
edbianyou have 2 identical hdds ?02:52
INeedANewNickedbian:  In any case, when I installed linux it says that I used the entire 1tb disk.  (external hdd)  I borrowed my dad's and I don't want to use the entire disk02:52

hatlesszoneanyone here using google plus yet?02:53
edbianINeedANewNick: Ohhh, yes.  The external must be sdb.  You should boot a live CD.  Use gparted to shrink /   That's /dev/sdb1 in this case.  / is also called the root partition.02:53
edbianINeedANewNick: gparted is nice and easy (graphical) It will allow you to shrink Ubuntu's / and put some other partition on there.  Like an empty NTFS for storage.02:54
INeedANewNickedbian:  I need to boot a live cd?  So I can't shrink it from here?02:54

INeedANewNickOh.  great, I just burned one like 3 days ago02:54
frewsxcvwhat has better battery life. ati propietary or open source drivers?02:54
edbianINeedANewNick: You can't edit partitions you're mounted on and you can't unmount root. so you have to boot a live CD.  Since that's the partition you wanna shrink02:54
sudokillINeedANewNick, you need a livecd so the disks arent mounted02:55
INeedANewNickKk, was just commenting how convenient it was that I had an up to date one on hand02:55
edbianINeedANewNick: yay :)02:55

Poindexter_W30 the reason why is that in the first place the BIOS is designed to accomodate a certain amount of sectors of a hard drive. If the hard drive has more sectors than what is programmed for then the OS will not see it. I have a 64 gig Memory stick that Windows doeson't want to format it.

Poindexter_An old Windows98 FDISK will format a low level format and partition a huge storage disk, but that is it. The BIOS controls whether it will accept it or not and the OS.04:47
w30Poindexter_, I understand that Windows doesn't like to give up the past so they have crutch after crutch installed rather than break out into something new.04:48

dr_Willismy desktop install is a server fir me05:55
katmagicThe difference is just what packages are installed.05:55
Poindexter_The word UBUNTU is synonymous with SERVER.05:55
dr_Willisdefault kernel. and packages i belive05:55
syrinx_Poindexter_: wat.05:56
dimas_Poindexter_  i had some connections problem to be able to mantain online here so i have to reinstall x-chat with the different version so maybe i missed your answer?05:56

fdeiamdoes apparmor check if that packages you were given are certified ubuntu packages ?05:57

fdeiamno i am human with very valid questions05:58
syrinx_fdeiam: questions that are not related to support and belong in !offtopic05:58
Poindexter_The word Ubuntu is from an Africa.  The word has its origin in the Bantu languages of southern Africa. Ubuntu is seen as a classical African concept.05:58

ubottuscarylarry: For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions See also !nomodeset.07:05
scarylarryi've tried nomodeset, but i'll try more boot options07:06
Tesseractto, once again, reiterate: why does ifconfig give device not found for usb0?07:06
bazhangscarylarry, the alternate cd is at www.ubuntu.com should wish to try that07:06
Tesseractnot enough information?07:06
wsagentwildbat: result for tracepath -b 8.8.8.8 http://paste.ubuntu.com/636217/07:06
scarylarrywhat is this text based alternative cd called, exactly because all i found was the one i have07:06

bazhangscarylarry, alternate cd07:07
bazhang!alternate | scarylarry07:07
ubottuscarylarry: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/alternative-download#alternate - See also !minimal07:07

scarylarryi have a feeling this alternat will work, i tried ubuntu v5 and it did install but it's pretty dated, and missing alot of things i want07:09
Tesseractbazhang: it's the standard built-in one.07:09
bazhangscarylarry, very dated, yes. it works most times when the live cd somehow does not07:09

I googled this and have yet to find anything helpful. looking at the syslog, the last message reads "gnome-session[1986]: Gtk-CRITICAL: IA__gtk_main_quit: assertion `main_loops != NULL' failed".07:27
tonvinqurey wildbat07:27
wleeno matter which desktop i choose, unity 2d, ubuntu, ubuntu-classic, I get this message every time07:27

SenjaiI dont have enough external media to backup with CD's or external hard drives07:36
SenjaiSo i transfer through the partitions, then i set ubuntu to eat up the windows partition07:36
HackNewtonSenjai, which partition type you are using for Ubuntu installtion ?07:38
SenjaiHackNewton, i dont know, the one ubuntu sets up when it installes07:38
HackNewtonokay you have to use software for viewing linux partition on your windows07:40
HackNewtontry this07:40
HackNewtonhttp://www.fs-driver.org/download.html07:40
HackNewtonits simple and nice to work07:40
HackNewtonand you can also copy paste the data into linux partition directly though your windows07:41
dr_Willisbe carefull using windows tools to access linuxFS ive had them break badly.07:41
SenjaiHackNewton, i use disk management to view partitions07:42
Senjaiit comes in windows07:42
HackNewtonyeah like dr_Willis said be careful07:42
SenjaiIt doesnt list a filesystem type though07:42
SenjaiI think its ext4? for ubuntu07:42
dr_Willistheres viewing partions... then theres accessing data ON the filesystem07:42
dr_Willis2 different jobs07:43

jbrown561I have xubuntu installed on a netbook. Networking has worked in the past (a month ago or so).  I _think_ that it started having problems after an update about a month ago.  Wondering what the problem might be.  Also, wondering why the GUI network tools and the command line (/etc/networks/interfaces) don't seem to sync up (as in ifconfig shows eth0, but ifdown eth0 says there is no such interface)08:19
pRoV7x Danny_ : or you can't connect to the Internet at all08:19
Danny_Wired through a network, no other browser works08:19
ader10geirha: #bash says that ubuntu messes is the cause of a bug like this, probably because ubuntu patches bash so much08:19
Danny_Yeah I cannot connect at all08:19
pRoV7x Danny_ : what's your OS08:20
almoxarifeDanny_: all other browsers on other machines on the same network do not access internet?08:20
ader10disregard "messes", my train of thought split in half while writing that08:20
Danny_Ubuntu 10.04, everything else can connect to the Internet just not my computer08:21
geirhaader10: Could be. The easiest way to tell is to build a vanilla bash and test with that.08:21
calvinowjbrown561: The command-line utilities and network manager never play nice together. That's not a symptom of your problem.08:21
jbrown561probably true, but still annoying08:21
calvinowthat it is08:22
jbrown561right now, the only way I can get a connection (wired or wifi) is via command line tools and then only on wired08:22

kate_ri'm in the process of reinstalling ubuntu on my drive, which already has a /home partition. i'm in "allocate drive space" now. what do i need to choose for "Use as"? Ext3, ext4? if i choose ext4 but the underlying FS isn't ext4, will it be formatted?10:58
bhundvenkate_r: for the format, you should have the option of "do not format"10:59
kate_rbhundven, sure. but what if the FS i choose now doesn't match the underlying FS?10:59
kate_re.g., i choose ext4 but it's actually ext3?11:00
bhundvenyou can fix it later by editing /etc/fstab11:00
bhundvenjust make sure you choose do not format11:00
bhundvenkate_r: also, if you choose ext4 and it is ext3, the ext4 mount option will still mount ext311:01
kate_ri see11:01
kate_rthanks11:01
bhundvenext4 will also mount ext211:01
bhundvenbut not the other way around11:01

TheRandomCoolBurn, likely unfortunately try some hardware health checker.11:50

SwedeMikeblargg: don't worry about it, the .2 is just that the installer image has been updated with new packages, as soon as you dist-upgrade you always get latest of everything.11:58
blarggdevral, I take it the release doesn't show the .2? I get: Description: Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS, Release: 10.0411:59

blarggxgt001, anyway, the idea is to see whether the fan is legitimately coming on due to something using the CPU a lot at random times. You might also see whether the CPU temperature is rising before the fan comes on, and whether the fan turns off once it falls.12:22

anuvrat_dr_willi1, its blank except a non responsive mouse pointer12:33
dr_willi1thats nit blank thwn :)12:33
anuvrat_dr_willi1, service gdm status returns running12:33
anuvrat_dr_willi1, if thats what you meant12:34
dr_willi1so the login screen alsi fails to work?12:34
anuvrat_dr_willi1, btw .. the system is presently booted using a live CD12:34
anuvrat_dr_willi1, and it is running fine in the live environment12:34
anuvrat_dr_willi1, I am accessing the live environment using ssh12:35
dr_willi1video chipset is what?12:35
anuvrat_dr_willi1, VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)12:35
anuvrat_is what is returned by lspci12:36
dr_willi1as a test it wiuld be good to know if gdm works. if a newly made user works. and if booting to text mode and the vommand 'startx' works.or not12:37
Gryllidatruepurple: sudo apt-get install assogiate ; Applications > System Tools > File Types Editor ; pick icon you want12:37
dr_willi1intel drivers are not too problematic nirmally12:38
anuvrat_dr_willi1, well, I can't tell that without rebooting the live environment .. and it has taken my father approx half an hour to boot the live environemnt and connect it to internet and install ssh on it12:38
xgt0011does chrome eat up more power than firefox?12:38
truepurpleGryllida:  I put in insudo apt-get install assogiate into a terminal, then look in that window path?12:38
ikoniaxgt0011: have a look for yourself12:39
dr_willi1xgt0011:  i would not think so12:39
anuvrat_dr_willi1, can't I just reinstall what ever seems to be corrupted?12:39
ikoniaxgt0011: do you mean power as in "resources" or power as in battery power12:39
anuvrat_dr_willi1, most likely the problem was caused by an interrupted upgrade to natty12:39
anuvrat_dr_willi1, it was running meerkat previously12:39
dr_willi1anuvrat_:  intel driver are nirmslly inclufed. you vould try. but it may be a user config issue12:40
xgt0011ikonia, battery power, dr_willi1 becaues there was a bug filed in code.google.com about more wakeups caused by chrome12:40
anuvrat_dr_willi1, ??12:40
dr_willi1broken upgrade   csn be very very bad12:40
anuvrat_dr_willi1, nirmslly?12:40
ikoniaxgt0011: these aren't really ubuntu issues you're asking12:40
xgt0011ikonia: it was specific to Linux version12:41
dr_willi1reinstsll intel drivers if you want12:41
ikoniaxgt0011: this is "ubuntu" support, not linux applications12:41
anuvrat_dr_willi1, resetting everything would be simple compared to dictating instructions to my father on phone ;)12:41
Gryllidatruepurple: yes12:41
dr_willi1interupting an upgrade in not good.12:41
Gryllidatruepurple: Try to find `Applications > System Tools > File Types Editor` in menu after assogiate installation succeeds.12:42
xgt0011ikonia: apologies12:42
dr_willi1anuvrat_:  thats why i asked if it worked for a newly made user12:42
anuvrat_dr_willi1, there was some confusion and the system was restarted in the middle of an upgrade .. so I presume that is what has caused the error12:42
anuvrat_dr_willi1, how will I create a new user on it? I am accessing a live environment via ssh :(12:43
stephanmgcan i safely set my user MANPATH to MANPATH:$MANPATH:/some/path? if i do this `manpath` gives me a warning: manpath: warning: $MANPATH set, prepending /etc/manpath.config12:43
dr_willi1a reinstall may be the only real fix12:43

blinkizHello. I use pacemaker/corosync to control a drbd+mysql+other stuff. I have problem controlling mysql because it has been converted to a upstart script.

What can I do about this?13:03

kristian-aalborgwifi dies and must be restarted with sudo /etc/networking restart13:32
qinkristian-aalborg: Did you try to chnage iwconfig power settings?13:33
kristian-aalborgbazhang, no, this was clearly an issue with something deep in the OS, not chipset quality13:33
bazhangkristian-aalborg, whats the bug number13:33
bazhangkristian-aalborg, link to said bug "deep in the OS"13:34
KM0201kristian-aalborg: if you're sure it's an ubuntu problem, then just tell us the chipset so we can verify it.13:34
oCeankristian-aalborg: if it was not hardware-specific, then everyone would have those issues13:35
* KM0201 agrees with oCean 13:35

kristian-aalborgI don't have neither of the boxen anymore, so hard to do stuff with them13:50
anuvrat_dr_Willis, its 8. something live CD13:50

frandohello. i want to connect to an openvpn over an existing vpnc connection. so to access the internet in my network, i have to use a vpnc vpn. i want to route all traffic through an openvpn as well, though, for anonymity purposes. if i connect to the openvpn after having connected to the vpnc vpn, a new tunnel is created, however, firefox and everything else seems to keep using the first tunnel (vpnc). how can i change that?13:52

rizzuhWhen I uninstall Firefox via Synaptic, it forces me to install Chromium. Okay, fine. But if I want to remove Chromium it now wants me to install Epiphany. Why? I have the official Chrome installed, why does Synaptic force me to install these browsers? Ubuntu 11.04.15:18
Guest94024since upgrading to natty i have had to reinstall twice.when starting up i get the following "no wubildr".any ideas why?15:18
Bisu[Shield]nice... i just ran rm -f /. how do you undelete files?15:18
edbianjemmeli: basically sudo rfkill list   and you'll see if it's blocked or not.15:18
ikoniaBisu[Shield]: you can't15:18
edbianrizzuh: Having a browser is part of gnome.  So it wants you to have one.  The package manager does not know that chrome is installed because it was installed without the package manager15:19
edbianrizzuh: It is sometimes annoying.  Let me know if you solve this problem!15:19
jemmeliok15:19
jemmeliI will try edbian15:19

Pici!undelete > Bisu[Shield] (but it probably isn't worth the effort)15:20
ubottuBisu[Shield], please see my private message15:20
rizzuhedibian, it does know Chrome is installed because Google's repository is installed. It was installed via the Software Center, which I suspect used dpkg/apt-get internally.15:20
edbianrizzuh: Mmm, PPAs should be caught by the package manager.  Maybe it doesn't count for some other reason?  IDK15:20
jemmelimake; sudo make install will do the job right? just to make sure.15:21
edbianjemmeli: what?  No.  What are you making?15:21
rizzuhedbian: well they are. Why does Gnome want its own browsers? This has to be a recent update, as it didn't behave this way.15:21
edbianrizzuh: It behaves that way on Debian.  I just noticed it a couple months ago.  I don't know why.15:21

BluesKajrizzuh, chromium isa better choice for linux .. recommend the default version in the repos15:22
* edbian agrees rizzuh 15:22
rizzuhBluesKaj: I use the beta Chrome. Same thing, but with Google's branding. Besides, it's newer than the Ubuntu repositories.15:23

jemmeliyes edbian15:24
edbianjemmeli: you wifi switch is set to 'off' rather15:24
edbianjemmeli: sudo rfkill unblock 015:24
rizzuhBluesKaj: It's not that I don't know the consequences. But Chrome is updated a LOT more often than Ubuntu does in the repositories. Being a web developer, I kinda want to have complete control over the browsers.15:24

jemmeliyou are right hp-wifi is not hardblocked anymore now15:25
Pici!minimal | evon15:26
ubottuevon: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD15:26
edbianrizzuh: ha,  strange!15:26

edbianjemmeli: sure15:29
jpdsevon: You can download the server CD, prses F4 when it boots and select the "Install minimum system" option.15:29
nick12345comum.MessageDoCliente@1de49815:29
Picievon: If minimal is what you were trying to go for, I'd go towards KVM rather than virtualbox.15:30
evonjpds, will that give me a gui? cause i need a gui.15:30
jpdsevon: No.15:30

evonpici. i've never heard of kvm. does it have  a gui? cause I am not good with commandiline15:30

jemmelibut sudo rfkill unblock 0 only soft unblocked it15:33
Picipensfan: mind the language please too.15:33
andantinoi think i have a package that is unable to update here, how can i tell which one it is15:34
minimecevon: Sorry if I pop in... First... To have the 'minimal' install, I would first stop all 'unneeded' dervices, As the update manager, zeitgeist and so on. What you want is as much RAM and CPU for your virtual machines. Then I would switch to a pure window manager like fluxbox or e17. That will free some capacities on the machine too.15:34
edbianjemmeli: I know that.  I don't think rfkill can hard block or hard unblock.  That's why I asked.  How did you hardblock?15:34
jpdsevon: You don't need a GUI, you can connect to the KVM system with a desktop application on another machine, see the link I just sent you.15:34

progre55hi guys. is it possible to ssh into a server behind a corporate network from outside, not having access to any of the servers available from outside? I have a server running in the office, but would like to be able to access it remotely from outside the office15:57
Dbl_Tapprogre55: you'd need to punch holes in the firewall for ssh15:58
morthbrainwave92: i may be semi-retarded, where am i looking on this link15:58
ubutoerbrainwave92: yes, dell studio 155515:58
oCean!locale | woozly|job15:58
ubottuwoozly|job: To set up and configure your locales, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocaleConf15:58

ubutoerbrainwave92: i have installed broadcom restricted drivers but i can't get wifi to work because of "wifi is disabled by hardware switch" message15:59

brainwave92ubutoer, just press Fn+F216:00
ubutoerbrainwave92: doesn't works, tried that16:00
brainwave92ubutoer then try just f216:00

oCeanubutoer: then a  sudo rfkill unblock 0  should unblock device phy016:02
edbianDiverdude: well file permissions for one.  (I think window has that figured out though in win7). But on linux you're not root and you don't run random stuff as root so if you ran a virus it could only do stuff that you could do.  It could only delete your own files.  No other users and no system files.  Also we install stuff primarily from the repos.  Many people only from repos.  It's really really hard to get a virus in the repos.16:02
=== administrator is now known as Guest12379
ubutoer"rfkill unblock 0" or 1 or 2 didn't work16:03
edbianubutoer: sudo sudo rfkill list to see if your interfaces are even blocked16:03
oCeanedbian: yes they were http://pastebin.com/5426PAkj16:03
Diverdudeedbian, ahhh yes you are right16:03
edbianDiverdude: sure :)  There is some other stuff too.  About it not being profitable.16:04
ubutoerokay now F2 works16:04
oCeanubutoer: aha16:04
ubutoerwhere add this to make it permanent??16:04
edbianDiverdude: But I don't really count that.  Cause many many servers run linux and servers hold all the good stuff16:04
Diverdudeedbian, the repo is a good argument16:04
ubutoeroCean: it says16:04
ubutoerno16:04
ubutoerfor blocked16:04
oCeanubutoer: I think adding it to /etc/rc.local would be sufficient16:04
edbianubutoer: It's hardware blocked.  rfkill only controls software block.  Use the switch to turn off hw block16:04
oCeanubutoer: and before it said 'yes'16:04
edbianDiverdude: yes.16:05
brainwave92ubutoer, the value is preserved between boots16:05
brainwave92so if you switched it onn now, unless you switch it off, its gonna stay on16:05
edbianDiverdude: and many many things on linux are open source.  so a virus would quickly be noticed.  Either suspeciously binary or clearly (source code) malicious16:05
Diverdudeedbian, basically also the reason why android has more malware than iphone16:05
oCeanbrainwave92: In my experience that might not be so when dual-booting16:05
edbianDiverdude: android has more malware that iphone because android market is easier to get into I think.16:06
Diverdudeedbian, exactly, the repo argument16:06
edbianDiverdude: yeah :)16:06
edbianDiverdude: but I think apple is too strict.16:06
Diverdudeedbian, very difficult to get into the iphone repo...more easy the android16:06
Diverdudeedbian, but that means that malware can get into opensource repos...which means it could also get into linux16:07
brainwave92oCean, i have dual booting as well,and its on unless i turn it off16:07
oCeanbrainwave92: I no longer dualboot, but I found out (for a collegue) that windows (at shutdown) blocked the device16:07
edbianDiverdude: It could get into linux. But it's open source so it is quickly noticed.  I'm not sure what the review process is for android.  But Debian / Ubuntu.  Malicious software simply doesn't get in.  I've never seen or heard of it anyway.16:08
Diverdudeedbian, if it can get into android it can get into debian no?16:08
edbianDiverdude: Those are different repos.16:09
edbianDiverdude: The android SDK itself is not in Debian repos16:09
Diverdudeedbian, yes i know....but the idea is the same16:09
edbianDiverdude: Well I think it's harder to get into Debian/Ubuntu repos than it is to get into android repos.16:09
Diverdudeedbian, the only reason android has malware is because there is a large amount of people to affect16:09
edbianDiverdude: And I don't think all of android id open source?  I could be wrong16:09
oCeanedbian: Diverdude is this discussion still about ubuntu?16:09
Diverdudeedbian, why do you think so?16:09
DiverdudeoCean, yes it is16:10

ikoniaelkng: where did you get that ?17:18
mneptokgodtrunks: it seems that device has no Free driver compiled into the mainline Linux kernel. this means that to get the device to work you will need to download driver source code and compile it yourself. and do that again every time you upgrade your kernel. probably easier to just try and find a supported device and buy it.17:19

escottkathie, if you are able to connect when the network is unprotected it could be a problem with your wpasupplicant (or at least an incompatiblity with that of the routers) that would be odd though17:31
kathieescott, It seems to be with my laptop only. Android phone connects, friends laptop etc17:32
Svartalfkathie: It could also be that MAC authentication has been turned on with the router- if your MAC for the wireless isn't in it's approved list, you won't get on the AP, even if you've got the password right.17:32

munbrainwave92, but daylight saving status should be synced, right17:48

sudokilljakemp, does it not work well with 2.6.38?18:47
Pat_FailI tried changing the hard drive18:47

sudokillI'm not sure about oldconfig on different kernels though18:50
Pat_Fail@ikonia should I boot with memtest86(not linux version) and see if theres a problem?18:50
jabba_ikonia, other strange thing is ... if i launch Xvnc by hand (from command-promt of the user xinetd also uses, without -inetd parameter of course) it doesn't die on disconnect18:51
sudokillOr you'd have to go through all the settings manually18:51
xTheGoat121xIs there a way to make my laptop wake up from suspend when I open the lid?18:51
jakempsudokill, yeah, I've never done a kernel before. I wish they continued packaging mainline kernels, but they moved all of the 3.0 up to oneric18:51
escottPat_Fail, if you have a memtest cd i would run the test (also make sure you didn't knock the sticks lose when you installed the video card)18:51
Pat_Failshould I take out each stick of ram and reinstall it?18:51
jakempYeah, I am not looking forward to tweaking the config18:52
sudokilljakemp, doing a kernel isn't hard, but if you are doing it with no config from a vanilla kernel, you'd have to literally go through all the settings and spend time on it18:52
jakempcrap.18:52
jakempwhere can I get an old config? /boot?18:52
sudokille.g. i dont even think ext4 is enabled by default18:52
sudokilljakemp, im not sure if oldconfig will work18:53
jakemp=/18:53
sudokilljakemp, but cd into the linux3 dir and do zcat /proc/config.gz > .config18:53
sudokillthat will put your existing config in the dir18:53
jakempthere is no /proc/config.gz18:54
sudokillah ubuntu kernel probably doesnt use that option18:54
sudokillor copy the .config from /usr/src/linux to the new dir18:54
sudokilli really dont have much exp with going from ubuntu kernel to vanilla though, i dont really know the differences18:55

Ether_Mandr_willis, one would imagine that someone responsible for a repo for a dist, be in the supportchannel for it or atleast someone that knows who that could forward. As for filing a bugreport seems to be useless as the last who tried doing that was basicly intructed to uninstall the bind9 package that was installed and closed the bug.19:21
dr_willisrajat123:  i suggest doing a normal install. or using ubuntu in virtualbox.. ive just seen SO many people in here with wubi disasters.19:21

Maestr055sudokill: well, not a complete success, I got as far as a splash screen in the first try but it hung later on. After reboot I didn't even get to the splash screen, same black screen. I did a recovery boot > failsafe x > restart x again and now I lost Unity, but I guess that's because I don't have the nvid driver anymore.19:25
AbhijitPat_Fail, you may want to try asking in ##hardware19:26
bryliePat_Fail: you may have un-seated your ram during installation, released static electricity that damaged the ram, or something else.19:26
sudokillMaestr055, yea you wont have unity with default driver afaik. Sorry but i cant see errors in your dmesg :s I have no clue what to suggest19:26

ProductPartitions ?19:52
TheHopeBusteryou can use the free space on your laptop19:52
sudokillProduct, you can leave a partiton there19:52
ProductOh, things I want to keep you mean.19:52
TheHopeBusteryes19:53
sudokillProduct, you might only have 1 partition. the drives can be divided up into small sections (partitons)19:53
ProductOh ok, thanks guys also other thing.19:53
TheHopeBustercoz19:53
ProductOooh ok Sudokill :)19:53
ProductCan I also have more options to switch to Windows back.19:53
TheHopeBusterubuntu can setup the partition on installation19:53
ProductIn any time ?19:53
jemaduxcan someone take one photo of me hackergotchi ?19:53
jo-erlenduh... Is it not possible in 11.04 to run more than 4 instances of Nautilus at a time?19:53
sudokillProduct, yes, you can just format the drive and install windows back on it19:53
ProductSudokill: Yes, but I mean if it is possible to have 2 OS on the same time.19:54
sudokillyes19:54
Maestr055sudokill:  you must work in a helpdesk to have thought of giving that information about the partition :)19:54
ProductWindows XP OS, and Ubuntu.19:54
TheHopeBusteror you can make dualboot19:54
sudokillProduct, is windows already on the drive?19:54
TheHopeBusteryea19:54
ProductSudoKill: Yes.19:54
sudokillok thats easier then19:54

=== skynix_ is now known as skynix
ProductSudoKill: But my friends told me that you can't open all programs.19:54
sudokillyou need to make a partition for ubuntu, then install ubuntu on that. the ubuntu bootloader will overwrite windows one and you can choose between both19:55
sudokillProduct, you wont be able to open any of your windows programs, from ubuntu19:55
ProductSudokill: Oh.19:55
vi#centos19:55
Maestr055Product: you can still open your files though, probably19:55
ProductSudokill: Is there any way to open them ?19:55
sudokillProduct, no they are different operating systems19:55
Maestr055sudokill:  with WINE he might?19:56
ProductBut they told me there is a program that makes you able to open them.19:56
sudokillProduct, i thought you were dual booting anyway?19:56
ProductYeah Wine19:56
sudokillProduct, yes wine19:56
Maestr055drink a lot of it!19:56
ProductDual booting ?19:56
Maestr055the cheaper the better19:56
CodyThibaultAny free to help a newbie? >.<19:56
Maestr055then you THINK you'll have opened it19:56
CodyThibaultwireless issue. :P19:56
jo-erlendProduct, it's very easy to have Windows and Ubuntu installed side by side. Specially if you already have Windows installed. You can run many programs designed for Windows in Ubuntu, but not all of them, and you must install them in Ubuntu. You cannot use the installed version from Windows directly.19:56
sudokillProduct, dual booting is having 2 operating systems on same drive19:56
ProductWith Wine, I can open any program I want ? For example a VB.Net program ?19:56
ProductOoh that's a cool thing.19:56
TheHopeBusterLOL19:56
ProductI can choose what OS I want on startup ?19:57
sudokillProduct, i have never used wine, but it usually works. i think some programs have problems19:57
Maestr055http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&client=ubuntu&channel=cs&ie=UTF-8&q=what+can+I+open+with+WINE+in+ubuntu%3F19:57
ProductOh ok :)19:57
ProductSudoKill: Oh ok :)19:57
Maestr055for instance: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/wine19:57
sudokillProduct, when you install ubuntu, when it boots you should be able to select windows from a list when it starts up19:57
jo-erlendProduct, you cannot run all Windows applications using wine, but many. It's popular to run games, etc.19:57
ProductThanks very much :)19:57
ProductBut is there an option I can choose between Windows OS and Ubuntu on start up of the computer ?19:58
sudokillyes like i said19:58
Maestr055Product: there should be, yes19:58
TheHopeBusterWho Using Backtrack?19:58
ProductOh ok :)19:58
CodyThibaultCan anyone tell me what  a BSSID is, and how to get wireless working with Lubuntu?19:58
* hotrod is away: Gone away for now19:58
sudokillTheHopeBuster, as a main OS?19:58
ProductDo you recommend me using it then guys ?19:58
gionnicohi19:58
ProductI think Linux is cool :)19:58
jo-erlendProduct, using what?19:58
ProductUnuntu19:59
ProductUbuntu*19:59
Maestr055...19:59
jo-erlendProduct, of course.19:59
Maestr055why ask here?19:59
sudokillProduct, you can try it by loading up the cd and not installing it, and play around with it it wont cause any harm at all19:59
Maestr055ask in #windows :D19:59
ProductOk :)19:59
PiciProduct: I suggest you try the Live CD out for a while, and if you don't like it then don't use it.19:59
PiciMaestr055: Thats not helpful.19:59
ProductOk :)19:59
ProductHow can I try a CD.19:59
gionnicoi've installed ubuntu 11.04. then i installed compizconfig-setting-manager. then I enabled cube desktop. metacity decorator disappeared. so I enabled decorator (compiz-decorator)19:59
ProductI mean.19:59
jo-erlendMaestr055, they even recommend Ubuntu from time to time in ##Windows. :)19:59
ProductI use a CD.19:59
gionnico*now I dont want cube anymore but metacity doesnt start so my windows don't have borders*19:59
ProductI have to use an empty CD, right ?20:00
sudokillProduct, just boot from the ubuntu cd. you will be able to use it (but not store anything permanently) and also it will be very very low compared to a proper install20:00
Maestr055I stand corrected, I was trying to convey an understanding of the importance of asking the right question in the right place20:00
TheHopeBustersudokill, Sorry20:00
ProductOh ok :)20:00
gionnicohow the heck is metacity started in a "ubuntu classic" GNOME session ?20:00
Maestr055heh, I bet they do, jo-20:00
jo-erlendProduct, right. Or a memory stick or memory card.20:00
ProductOk, I'll use an USB, is it good ?20:00
ProductOk, I'll use Memory Stick.20:00
sudokillProduct, usb is normally faster than cd especially booting up20:00
ProductOk :)20:00
jo-erlendgionnico, how metacity is started? metacity --replace?20:00
Maestr055Product: I use this tool to make a bootable USB: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/20:01
ProductHow many GB's does it has to be ?20:01
Product2 ?20:01
gionnicojo-erlend: and where is this line? what file?20:01
Maestr055works just fine with Ubuntu, 2 GB should be enough20:01
sudokillProduct, i think 1GB as the cd is 700mb20:01
jo-erlendgionnico, ah. You want to edit the sessions?20:01
gionnicoi mean metacity --replace & works from terminal but it isnt started automatically!20:01
ProductOoh ok :)20:01
ProductI want to ask if someone can also just help me via TeamViewer.20:01
gionnicojo-erlend: i dont know i just know that since i enabled cube desktop then disabled it metacity isnt starting anymore20:01
ProductTo install it on Memory Stick.20:01
gionnicoi want to restore previous behaviour20:01
ProductI would be pleased :)20:01
jo-erlendProduct, it's really very easy. I don't think you'll need any help once you've gotten it onto your usb stick or cd.20:02
ProductOk :)20:02
Producthttp://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download20:02
ProductThis right ?20:02
Maestr055Product: just try http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ it really is very straightforward20:02
ProductOh ok.20:02
jo-erlendgionnico, metacity doesn't support "cubes" and such though?20:02
Maestr055yes, download the 32-bit 11.04 version20:02
sudokillProduct, yes. a cd is probably easier to do if you havent got a clue (no offense)20:02
ProductI just wanted someone in TV with me, incase I do something wrong.20:02
jo-erlendMaestr055, I think Ubuntus own is better.20:03
gionnicoi disabled cube desktop but metacity didnt come back!20:03
Maestr055but unetbootin can do that for you as well20:03
Maestr055jo-erlend: not familiar with that one20:03
ProductDon't worry Sudo, :)20:03
sudokillProduct, i think youll find ubuntu as easy to install as windows it has a nice big plain UI20:03
gionnicoio have a problem: my windows dont have borders when i log in gdm20:03
ProductI know I don't have much experience.20:03
Maestr055I know for a fact that unetbootin worked for me20:03
ProductOk :)20:03
ProductUbuntu has a cool GUI ?20:03
gionnicoand this happens since i tried cube desktop. even if i disable cube desktop windows wont have borders at login20:03
andrejpani have one problem, my encoding is charset=unknown-8bit and because of that some letters are not shown correctly, how do I change this to utf8?20:03
TheHopeBusteryeah20:03
ProductCool :)20:03
sudokillProduct, yea the gui is nice and big and neat20:03
Maestr055oh, I did try their own one, that didn't work for me20:03
ProductYou know, I don't want to use a small box like CMD.20:04
ProductTyping commands there.20:04
sudokillok g2g dinner20:04
Maestr055I thought you meant there was one called "ubuntus" *sigh*20:04
ProductOk cya :)20:04
Maestr055bon appetit20:04
Maestr055and thanks again20:04
Product:)20:04
jskhey20:04
ProductI'am just scared to do something wrong, and BAM everything vanishs.20:04
Maestr055if you run from a USB and don't click anything that says "install" you should be fine :)20:05
ProductIt is my first time doing this.20:05
jo-erlendProduct, you won't type any commands. You'll enter your name, which country you live in, username and password, then you'll click on "Keep windows" and slide the slider to tell the installer how much diskspace to use for Windows and Ubuntu...20:05
ProductOh ok :)20:05
jo-erlendProduct, have you burned a CD before?20:05
ProductBut don't I have to install it on my USB ?20:05
ProductNope :(20:05
ProductNever, done before.20:05
ProductThat's why I'am scared to do something wrong.20:06
Maestr055you can install it from USB or from the CD20:06
Maestr055just do the USB and try ubuntu20:06
ProductI'll use the USB/20:06
jo-erlendProduct, ok. Don't worry. I haven't done it in a while, but I'll look it up for you. :)20:06
Maestr055if you like it, there's a link on the desktop to install it if you want20:06
Maestr055but you don't have to20:06

YxvenAny on guesses on why my ubuntu server's download speed fluctuates between bytes per second up to 250kb/sec when downloading from standard repositories?20:24
Mike1Yxven: maybe bad repo mirror, I’d just try a different one20:25
YxvenMike1: I mean it drastically changes speeds when downloading the same file. It seems to happen from multiple sources20:26
YxvenIt almost seems like a priority issue or something. When I ssh in as a different terminal and ping google the download speed usually increases from bytes per second to something reasonable20:28
sudokillYxven, its probbaly someone on your network20:28

ioengammalsko: is the script and mysql running on the same server? if so then '<username>@localhost' should work22:12
engammalskostephenh: I think I know the user btw. I created the password and user in shell. But on php i logged in with root and the password. So I thought I could use the user root in my php too but maybe I should have used the created user which I don't remember haha.22:12
ioengammalsko: <username> being the username you specify when using mysql ie. '$ mysql -u <username>'22:12
stephenhengammalsko: use mysql to reset the user's password with the root acount?22:13

sudokillkubuntu is kde, sort of resembles window a bit more23:13
superkiwiHi, I am running 11.04 and I am wondering how to set VLC as default application for video files in nautilus. It is not selectable in system settings, and it is not set as default when opening files with "open with..". I'm using gnome shell.23:13
ubuntuuserIO0319 no solution.there is no such option in my bios23:14
oCeansoziety: while kde has beautiful interface, I would not recommend it to new users23:14

sozietyok ubuntu 10.04 then?23:15
sudokillno, soziety reffered to himself as a noob thats why i said it23:15
sozietyI need stablished23:15
sozietyI want encrypt the system partition23:16
oCeansudokill: in that case ubuntu 10.04 is a good choice23:16
oCeanerr23:16
oCeansoziety: ^23:16
sudokill:p23:16
ubuntuuserany solution?any suggestion?23:16
Poindexter_Soziety I use Kubuntu for the following reasons. One, It is portable and fits very nicely on a simple hard drive. It is not a pig on resources and the most important feature is that you can apt-get anything your heart desires.23:16
sudokillsoziety, plain ubuntu has a nice big UI23:16
sudokillits nice23:16
sozietyxDDD23:17
blackoutfhis there any possibility to show last used date of all packages?23:17
oCeansoziety: anyway, there's a lot of personal preference involved, so we cannot suggest the 'best'. Try the livecds for ubuntu/kubuntu and see for yourself23:18
oCeanblackoutfh: "used" date?23:18
sozietyPoindexter_, kubuntu consumes less than ubuntu?23:18
blackoutfhyeah i want so see if there are some packages installed that have never been used23:18
oCeanblackoutfh: I don't see that is possible23:19
oCean*how23:19
sozietyok I tried kubuntu 10.04 then, thanks23:19
oCeanblackoutfh: packages consist of many files. There's no 'tracker' for all of those files23:19
sudokillsoziety, kde is more bloated actually but i think it uses about the same resources23:19
Poindexter_Soziety Kubuntu installs very nicely on a Windows Guest for VirtualBox.23:19
sudokillkde definatly isnt slow23:20
NorthernenIs it possible to use vmware or something similar to create an empty virtual disk?23:20
blackoutfh@oCean thx23:20
sozietyI want to kick windows 723:20
NorthernenI want to play with fdisk on it.23:20
sudokillsoziety, if you like windows 7s look youll like kdes even more23:21
sozietyI want to install linux and then install vmware with windows23:21
Poindexter_Kubuntu is good for older legacy machines.23:21
sudokill?? things like xuubntu and lubuntu are23:22
sudokillkde needs quite a good comp compared23:22
Poindexter_Xubuntu is in the same catagory.23:22
sudokillxfce is much faster than kde :s23:22
blackoutfhxubuntu is awesome23:23
KM0201i dunno.. xfce has gotten just as bloated as gnome IMO... kind of a disappointment, i used to really like xfce23:23
Poindexter_Faster is not the issue. Hardware compatibility is.23:23
KM0201Lxde is the answer!23:23
Poindexter_Gnome is a pig.23:23
sudokillopenbox imo23:23
sudokillpure openbox is so fast23:23
blackoutfhlxde is also cool but harder to configure23:23
sudokillits unbelievable23:23
KM0201blackoutfh: not really.. once you get the hang of it, it's very simple23:23
oCeanNorthernen: VBoxMange can do that (actually dd can do that, but in that case you have to set # cylinders etc)23:25
blackoutfhfor sure you can set everything in config files, but xubuntu has the advantage that there are a lot of menus where you can change settings is easier for beginners IMHO23:25
KM0201blackoutfh: http://imagebin.org/16094823:25
KM0201lubuntu makes it to not have to configure to much23:25
sudokillblackoutfh, yep, kde and gnome are tha main ones for that reason23:26
KM0201sudokill: i could never get used to KDE...23:27
KM0201i just hate it23:27
NorthernenoCean, cheers. Will have a go there.23:27
sudokillso do i23:27
sozietyubuntu 10.04 or ubuntu 11.04?23:27
sudokillill never move from openbox i dont like tilers either23:27
sudokillsoziety, go with the latest23:28
blackoutfhxfce is also easy to use i use shortkeys in xfce there is the keyboardmenu to set them, in lxde there is only the conffile23:28
KM0201soziety: nless you have some need for LTS, go w/ 11.0423:28
sudokillwell i think xfce might get more interest because of gnome 3 its the closest thing to gnome 223:28
sudokillwhich in a lot of people ipinions is the best de23:28
ramzy_XFCE is getting better and better with time...23:28

FloodBot1Ignacio: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.23:29
KM0201sudokill: yeah, and after i tried gnome 3, and i saw i'm gonna hate it... i switched to xfce.. (might as well embrace the change now)... but xfce, it was just buggy to me... ha strange lockups at times, etc.. that i never had w/ Gnome 2.x... Lxde, has been flawless23:29
KM0201ramzy_: i disagree, i think xfce has denegrated horribly23:29
sozietycan I encrypt the system with ubuntu 11.04?23:30
KM0201soziety: you can encrypt yoru home23:30
ramzy_KM0201, you mean from a memory consumption point of view?23:30
kumulatoresmimiimi23:31
marcus_Hello. I am trying to figure out a problem with my bluetooth. I got a laptop second hand and installed xubuntu then ubuntu over it. My bluetooth light is on yet ubuntu does not recognize it.23:31
KM0201ramzy_: i mean from memory consumption, to overall bloat... Xfce, part of its appeal, used to be that it was less bloated than Gnome or KDE... now, IMO.. it's just as bloated (maybe a bit less so) than both of them..23:31
kumulatoresmimimimimimim23:31
ZBufferedI created a thread on ubuntuforums for an issue I am having with Apache: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11002927 Requests are delayed by 5 seconds on remote computers, but loading a page on the Ubuntu machine itself is instant.  I captured packets on the remote machine and the delay is almost exactly 5 seconds.  Does anyone know what could be causing a 5 second delay?23:31
kumulatoresmimimimimimimimim23:31
KM0201so that leaves you w/ LXDE/Openbox.. as truly "light" GUI's23:31
ramzy_i use openbox now, and i agree that xfce has become a not so light DE, but it still more responsive than gnome23:32
sudokillwell i tried them all, i thought gnome 3 was ok actually look wise but all the big de's are too complex for their own good imo23:32
sudokillopenbox can be one of the nicest looking DEs23:32
Successhow do i use emeral themes in 11.0423:33
KM0201Gnome 3.. to me, it's kinda like the hottest chick in HS... fun to look at, then you talk to her and realize she's got a poor attitude.23:33

KM0201Success: it's not fully implemented into Ubuntu yet.. only distros i'm aware of that have it, are the current version of Open Suse, and Fedora23:34
sudokillnot good idea apparently its buggy and can mess things up23:34
Successoh23:34
Successso how do i use emeral themes in 110423:34
KM0201Success: no.. 11.04 has Unity.. (kinda like gnome 3... but different)23:34
ramzy_gnome 3 has a long way to go.....just my opinion...i still wait to see how its going to work on ubuntu 11.1023:34
KM0201Success: emerald themes are not supported anymore to my knowledge, you use compiz23:34
KM0201!emerald23:35
ubottuemerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives.23:35
Successbut what about in ubuntu classic23:35
KM0201Success: i wouldn't mess w/ emerald.23:35
Successso how i use themes23:35

qinGuest54970: Insert CD to drive (what type of cd is it, music?) and you should see top up window.23:52
westzJonJ, make sure you've selected the right sound card in the preferences. do you have an on board camera?23:52
Guest54970it's an interactive cd-rom with school assignments on it23:52
westzGuest54970, so it's an application CD? you'll probably need wine23:52
klownk, fixed it, thanks for the advice westz.23:52
qinGuest54970: with autorun.exe on it?23:52
