tzhuangRegarding Ubuntu 11.04 installation: I partitioned around 100MB as a boot partition for which I specified to mount /boot. I then said to install the bootloader to sda7 (the boot partition). During the installation, the installer said I could not install the bootloader to the partition. The gui wouldn't work at that point so I was forced to reboot. Then I tried to install Grub2 manually through a terminal to no avail.  The error I get is "Sector 50 is already in 00:03

pdtpatrickLooks like we are stuck with the Unity dock? Can't move it in 11.04 nor is it planned to be moved in 11.10 .. Saw a note from Mark Shuttleworth: “I’m afraid the location of the Unity launcher is fixed by design. We want the launcher always close to the Ubuntu button.” .. anyone know of a hack to hide it?00:07

QinxuInstalling via USB is causing hand at boot menu on my HP Mini 311. Any advive?00:12
riddlerI want to remove games on my lubuntu so I went to Synaptic Package Manager and "mark for complete removal", after that it tells me "Mark additional required changes? the chosen action also affects other packages. the following changes are required in order to proceed. To be removed: lubuntu-desktop  cancel/mark"   do i select it and mark or just hit mark, what will happen, will it remove my lubuntu desktop?00:12
gohdan!tell Qinxu about alternate00:13
ubottuQinxu, please see my private message00:13
wildbatQinxu: should you be in hosiptial ?~ you just lost a hand ;p ~j/k just you haven't make a boot USB successfully ~ try other method of make it.00:14
Qinxugohdan. I am using USB boot00:15
QinxuI am using the specified method. It bppts and gives me the menu. It hangs when I hit a key.00:16
ejoSo... I'm scp'ing a small file (3 MB) over to my account on a server, and scp gets to 100%.  I wait a few seconds and I get a cursor back in my shell but no prompt.  It then takes another two minutes, nearly, to get my prompt back.  Is that just a result of buffering or something in the transfer?00:16
ejoI'm guessing 100% shown by the progress display was only referring to 100% of it having entered the buffer, and it hadn't actually been all transferred at that point.00:16
squarebracketwhat's the best partition type to use for windows / linux cross-compatibility?00:16
squarebracketerr, filesystem type00:16
patrycjahello00:17
wildbatsquarebracket: you don't have choose ~ FAT32/ ntfs is all windows can use00:17
gohdansquarebracket:  you can use ext3 if you install the appropriate drivers in windows00:17

QinxuI used the same stick to insyall on my Eee 90000:17
Omen_20?00:18
squarebracketok, so between fat32, ntfs and ext3, which is the best to use? it'll mostly be for storage / backup; windows and linux OS's have their own partitions | wildbat gohdan00:18
squarebracketor does it even matter if performance isn't a huge issue?00:19
tofaffyHello, I'm running Gnome3 in Ubuntu 11.04 and I am trying to figure out what the old "Apperance" program was, as it is no longer installed.00:20
aeon-ltdtofaffy: gnome-apperance-manager iirc00:20
wildbatsquarebracket: i would pick ntfs ~ i don't like ext3 under wins ~ it mount as ext2 ~ fat32 is kinda outdated ~ not files >2GB.00:20
gohdansquarebracket:  ntfs doesnt have the limitations of fat32 and ext isnt native to windows. (although ntfs isnt native to *nix either) ntfs would be the "sane" choice00:20
tonyyarussosquarebracket: Whatever you're using natively.  So, backup the Windows to NTFS, and the Linux to ext3.00:20
aeon-ltdtofaffy: *properties not manager00:20
tofaffyaeon-ltd: That isn't installed, and isn't available in the repos.00:21
squarebrackettonyyarusso, sure, but that would require separate partitions. i don't want to have to juggle partition size, cuz that's /never/ an easy task00:21
squarebracketwildbat, gohdan thanks for your help00:22
simpleblue"ifconfig" in terminal = "bash: ifconfig: command not found" .. using arch. any ideas?00:22
aeon-ltdtofaffy: its part of gnome control centre00:22
simplebluei know i'm missing a package for it. just don't know which one :/00:22
gohdansimpleblue: this is an ubuntu support channel. if you need arch support please use their channel00:23
simplebluegohdan, the programs would be similiar, but i'll leave if you want me to00:23
squarebracketsimpleblue, i've heard arch is a bit difficult, good luck! :)00:23
simplebluei'm finding that out, lol00:24
gohdansimpleblue: they are radically different. and we can not support another distro here. particularly one with such poor security and pkg management practices00:24
westzi'm trying to find someone who might be interested in coding a blog, staying on for support and hopefully making some money in the long term00:24
simplebluealright gohdan, tc00:24
Blue1westz: have you seen my blog?  http://www.pkill-9.com00:24
westzand yeah, i know this isnt the channel for that00:24
gohdansquarebracket: arch is pretty easy. a lazy mans gentoo00:26
westzgohdan,  HA00:26
TrevIncMy sister tried to install Gentoo. She cried.00:26

RPG-MasterWhat's the best file system for sharing between Ubuntu and OS X?00:27
StevenRRPG-Master: what's your criteria for "best" ?00:28
RPG-MasterBesides FAT and its limited self.00:28
gohdanwestz: packman _is_ pretty nice.. all those unsigned pkgs it pulls in.... not so much00:28
StevenRRPG-Master: and define "sharing" too00:28
amfcostahello00:29
gohdanwestz: https://igurublog.wordpress.com/2011/02/19/archs-dirty-little-notso-secret/00:29
RPG-MasterStevenR: Well, something other than NTFS, but is still easily read able between the two, on an external HDD.00:29
amfcostais there anyway to get the current state of the messages (chat, mail) indicator?00:29
RPG-MasterUnless NTFS is the only easy-to-set-up-and-read FS...00:30
StevenRRPG-Master: so, really you mean "What FS should I use for my external hard disk to allow my mac and my ubuntu box to read it" ?00:30
amfcostapreferably in C... but in pyton will also do it...00:30
RPG-MasterStevenR: Sorry, yeah that about sums it up.00:30
RPG-MasterListening to metal while writing...00:31
squarebracketwestz, gohdan, i've actually debated trying arch just because packman sounds intriguing... but that security issue is good to know00:31
RPG-MasterIt messes with ya'00:31
StevenRRPG-Master: it's cool, just making sure I captured your question correctly :) ... you might try the mac-native fs (HFS+ or whatever it's called?) I think the Linux kernel can read that00:31
RPG-MasterStevenR: Googling it now...00:32
StevenRRPG-Master: or there might be a fuse package for it00:32
gohdansquarebracket: it is even more troubling because the arch lead dev has been rooted on numerous occasions... because of changes he and his teams have made to pkgs in the repo defaulting to the least secure settings, and overwritting any secure confs a user previously had00:32
StevenRRPG-Master: sudo apt-cache search hfs   suggests a few things too00:32
westzsquarebracket, dont let that get to you, it's a very upstream distro so it's inevitable. it's a really good distro, i used it until i broke it, but i didnt have the time to get it set up again (no internet at home, and i leave for the military in a week)00:33
RPG-MasterStevenR: I have read about this MacFuse thing, and how it'll let you use most file systems on a Mac. But I couldn't figure out how to set it up.00:33
StevenRRPG-Master: it's probably easier to let the mac use something native, and let the ubuntu box deal with it :)00:33
RPG-MasterStevenR: Probably. :P00:34
squarebracketgohdan, WOW... that's crazy00:34
squarebracketwestz, maybe i'll set it up in a vm.. just to play it safe :)00:34
gohdansquarebracket: bettter drop a vm in a vm in a vm to be sure. after all... its arch :300:36
RPG-MasterStevenR: Scratch that. Linux can only read HFS+. Linux /can/ write, but you first must turn off journaling. Not good...00:39
squarebracketgohdan, don't worry, i'll throw windows in the mix somewhere... just to throw them off the scent ;)00:39
ubuntunoobie2903How does a program get into the Ubuntu repository? Who is in charge of updating the repository when a new version of a program comes out?00:39
squarebracketoh man, i'm excited to try running the source engine under linux... finally getting a decent install of ubuntu going on my desktop00:41
gohdanubuntunoobie2903: a majority of the pkgs come from the upstream debian repo. the people in charge of updates in ubuntu are the ubuntu package maintainers (aka ubuntu developers)00:41
ubuntunoobie2903So when someone comes out with a new version of their program, are they responsible for submitting that update? Does the update have to be approved?00:43
sdubuntunoobie2903 i believe it does have to be approved otherwise some programmers can put bad code on your computer00:45
gohdanubuntunoobie2903: the maintainer is in charge of obtaining the package, approving, testing, configuring and patching it to work with ubuntu.00:45
squarebracketgohdan, how hard is it to get vetted as a maintainer? i remember at one point there was a package that was not actively maintained, and i wanted to see if i could package it.00:46
temporehi, is there any self-installing software for ubuntu vpn?  because openvpn and fppt dont work neither connect in my ubuntu00:48
gohdansquarebracket: you start off by bug squashing and building a name in the community. eventually you can request or be offered a mentorship and begin that way.00:48
[THC]AcidRainvfd00:49
ubuntunoobie2903gohdan: So how do I figure out who is maintaining a particular package?00:49
StevenRRPG-Master: in that case, it's probably the mac-fuse thing you need to look at then, or a format both can read.00:49
StevenRRPG-Master: I'm gone now. (it's nearly 2am here!)00:49
RPG-MasterStevenR: Thanks and goodnight. :)00:50
gohdani believe there is a nice episode about this process on the "This Week in Debian" podcast.  | ubuntunoobie2903 squarebracket00:50
temporehi, is there any self-installing software for ubuntu vpn?  because openvpn and fppt network vpn dont work neither connect in my ubuntu00:50
amfcostaso, is there anyway (in C or Python) to get the state of the messages indicator in 11.04? I mean, to know if there's a notification or not?00:51
Logan_ubuntunoobie2903: http://packages.ubuntu.com/distro/package - e.g. http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/pisg - it displays the maintainer in the right column.00:51
squarebracketgohdan, oh cool, thanks for the tip00:51
gohdanubuntunoobie2903:  the developer in charge of a pkg is noted on packages.ubuntu.com00:51
gohdanit may be in the documentation pulled down by dpkg too00:52

gohdanalthough, i am not privy to how difficult it is to break in as an ubuntu developer. most of them are the original debian maintainers and canonical just rsyncs the repo but ubuntu does have many pf there own. debian is the most accessible and easy distro to become active in.00:57

Simon___Printer? Brother MFC 782001:23
bazhangSimon___, what does linuxprinting.org database say abou t that01:23
ubun.01:24
ubunI think i messed up... i was trying to get kdenlive to work correctly and maybe i installed or uninstalled something. i cant install anything that has to do with ffmpeg.  it says this in software center "items cannot be installed or removed until the package catalog is repaired, do you want to repair it now?" when i hit repair it does nothing01:24
Simon___Sorry, I'm new and I've read everything from the Ubuntu forums, but nothing seems to work.01:24
bazhangubun, kdenlive installed from where? PPA?01:24
bazhangSimon___, that is the linuxprinting.org database, no connection to ubuntuforums. please have a look01:25
ubunbazhang: idk i got it from software center01:25
Simon___Sorry, I'm so new that I don't even really understand what you're telling me (although I think it means I'm in the wrong group...?)01:26
bazhangubun, try installing from the terminal and then pastebin the messages01:26
ubunbazhang: k01:26
bazhangSimon___, open a browser---> go to www.linuxprinting.org  click link database, enter printer model and search for number , hit enter, tell us what you find01:27

ubunbazhang: this is what i did "sudo apt-get install kdenlive" and this are the errors Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation:  The following packages have unmet dependencies:  kdenlive : Dep01:28

tsimpsonShariff: use apt-cache01:43
KM0201EmuAlert: its very easy... if you pay attention.;01:43
szaltom719co: there is no supported upgrade path from 9.04 to 10.04 any more, so you basically have 2 options: keep 9.04 running but be aware that it's out of support, or reinstall w/ 10.04, that'll keep you running till 12.04, upgrade to which will be supported, or till approx. spring 2015 at the latest01:43
tsimpsontom719co: see the guide I gave you01:44
gohdanEmuAlert: then, yes. you should also probably use a separate '/home' partition01:44
KM0201gohdan: not really01:44
ANONYMOUSIPhow ubuntu can be sure if is so difficult to install a vpn client native?01:45
tom719coszal/tsimpson: i'm getting conflicting information ...  the link shows an upgrade path to 10.04 still.   I dont *require* it to be upgraded fully.. It's just that I couldn't install anything. But after using the sources.list provided in the EOL document, I can now install what I needed.. So I'm not sure if I should proceed01:45
szalANONYMOUSIP: there is no such thing as anonymity on the Internet; there'll always be a way to find out your IP, you can only make it more difficult01:46
tsimpsontom719co: you should, as you will get no security updates with 9.0401:46

* szal would guess that somebody else already got their hands dirty w/ kernel 3.0 & you just need to search for a PPA that has it02:37
dr_willis!kernel02:37
ubottuThe core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages)02:37
hamneggaI don't have a dedicated sound card, just nforce 6150SE02:37
i2iotCan someone help me with this02:38
i2iotYour system has a limit for maximum amount of locked memory. This might cause Ardour to run out of memory before your system runs out of memory.02:38
i2iotYou can view the memory limit with 'ulimit -l', and it is normally controlled by /etc/security/limits.conf02:38
hamneggaI wanna see ubuntu get some nvidia drivers that'll support both onboard and dedicated GPU's, simultaneously, for CUDA purposes.  I use CUDA with my GTX 460, but unlike windows, x won't boot unless I disable the onboard card02:38
gohdani2iot: it should be fine under most circumstances.02:39
szalcan Ardour run w/o JACK?  because installing JACK should modify limits.conf automatically (it did here)02:40
hamneggaThe point is to use the bleeding edge kernel, not download and install the ubuntu package source manually.  Jeez02:42

edbianfission6: You can run things while the upgrade runs.  You might notice some strangeness but a restart (or IRC help) can fix anything that drops up03:07
szalfission6: Karmic is dead, so it's definitely worth it03:07
fission6ok03:08

vexati0nDriversBroken, if your NTFS is really that borked, you'll be lucky to fix it at all. try BartPE or Hirens. failing those, I would thank the lord that I had a good, recent backup of everything on my machine, reinstall, and go from there.05:16

Capsodanileigh79: wubi says it'll install ubuntu within my current system?05:21

vexati0nDriversBroken - i know she's serious about that. it isn't her fault, she has no idea how computers work. to her, it seems logical. we know better, but there'll be no convincing her of that. this is why you never say the word "Linux" to an inexperienced/non-technical user.05:23

latagoremrdeb: Or make a cleaner user interface for the lesser computer users05:24
latagoreDriversBroken: The mom thing :D05:24
vexati0nmrdeb, i'm all for overcoming that ignorance, but the FOSS community should face the fact that they have lost the battle over the word Linux. none of the successfull linux-based products out there say "Linux" anywhere but in very tiny print at the back of a technical manual nobody will ever read.05:25
DriversBrokenlatagore:  oh lol05:25
DriversBrokenvexati0n:  it's partly warranted, because this thing where linux = terminal still exists.05:25
danileigh79Capso: I used Universal-USB-Installer.exe from pendrivelinux.com05:25
DriversBrokenwhen we have a disk error, we dont' say install this or that.  We say "Open up the terminal and go sudo fdisk -l!"05:26
vexati0nDriversBroken, Linux is a great OS, but the FUD has overpowered the community's ability to describe it favorably.05:26
DriversBrokenAnd when we want to clone something, we go dd as;dlkfj;asdlkjfa;skdjf;asfasl;dkfj;sdl options before that05:26

KM0201DriversBroken: if you're running ubuntu 11.4 in vbox.. 3D sucks in Vbox, and thats probably why it crashed05:28
vexati0nKM0201, i'm not crying i was just expounding on my deep philosophical beliefs that Linux is at a popular disadvantage because of the intensity and length of the FUD pushed against it.05:28
KM0201DriversBroken: unfortunately 11.04 does not default to a 2D desktop all the time.05:28

KM0201oh ok05:29

wells5878they work on a local WAMP install and on another webserver. no log errors even when i turn logging on at level 905:58
wells5878rewrite.log is empty -- 0b05:59
aciculad_atharva_: eh does logging into the normal ubuntu work?05:59
wells5878apache error.log shows nothing relevant05:59
aciculaare youm sure mod_rewrite is loaded? think apache has a something_ctl binary that lets you list currently loaded modules?06:00
wells5878it doesn't show as running when i do apache2ctl -l -- but if i try to enable it or define in my httpd.conf it says it's already running06:01
d_atharva_acicula : i didnt get your question..06:01
aciculad_atharva_: my question is can you log into ubuntu, ie do you get the error when you login or is it just the program that gives you an error06:02
d_atharva_acicula : No..just the program...06:03

maquishi all. i am running maverick, and just tried installing the nvidia driver using "additional drivers" (under administration). After that, the computer would start up into a non-gui purple "Ubuntu" screen, then go to an all-purple screen and hang there. I ssh'd in and uninstalled nvidia-current and changed my xorg.conf to an old one (I think it was the automatic backup from "additional drivers"), and now it starts to a gui purple screen th06:03
aciculad_atharva_: then you just have some weird filepermissions06:03
d_atharva_acicula : so what's the solution ?06:04
aciculad_atharva_: try to change the fileproperties of the file it complains about, or try moving it to anothre location altogether and see if it will start then06:04
wells5878@acicula tried that earlier, no dice06:04
aciculad_atharva_: find the file in your filebrowser, right click it, select properties, make sure that read is toggled for your user. if its a directory that the program complains about you will need to to toggle it as execute06:04
aciculamaquis: you can reset i think by purging the nvidia drivers and removing the xorg.conf altogether06:05
maquisacicula: mind refreshing my mind on how to find all the nvidia drivers?  should i just remove everything aptitude sees installed that has nvidia in the name?06:06
aciculathough the startup image you see at boot is handled a little differently06:06
aciculamaquis: eh ill have a google but i think apt-get purge nvidia-* should do it06:06
maquisacicula: i'll do that. thanks!06:07
maquiseverything in that looks reasonable. thanks a ton for the help! :)06:08

aciculawells5878: i have no idea wether those are correct or not, again, write a trivial rewrite rule and try that. if that works you know where to look06:12
aciculawells5878: if you remove the Options -Index , does it work then?06:13
wells5878trivial rewrites do work06:13
wells5878i tried RewriteRule   ^test\.html$  test.php [R,L]06:13
aciculawells5878: k, then its your .htaccess file thats malformed then06:14
aciculacan you try it without the -Index06:14
wells5878no change without the -index06:15
wells5878even if those rewrite rules are incorrect, it still doesn't explain why a directory without an index would give me a 500 error06:16
aciculait gives you a 500 error because of the .htaccess file, whats in it does not really factor into that i guess?06:17
aciculatry the htaccess line by line?06:17
wells5878removing the htaccess file altogether still results in a 500 error on empty directories06:18
aciculaah like so06:18
wells5878due to this, and the fact that the htaccess works on a WAMP server, it tells me this is a server misconfiguration.06:18

LilleCarlbkerensa, you can take your pc and burn a live linux cd of a live linux distro07:30
herkupuspratz: if booting stops at busybox shell, something went wrong. probably the root filesystem could not be found.07:30
LilleCarlthen you can access the hdd and move files as you want to07:30
bkerensaLilleCarl: You genius... I totally forgot!07:30
LilleCarl;)07:30
herkupusbkerensa: yeah, using a live cd would be better in that case07:30

pratzherkupus: can you please tell me a solution for this ??07:30
pratzhtml-inprogress: i need to boot normally07:31
herkupuspratz: no, since not finding the root filesystem may have many reasons07:31
herkupushtml-inprogress: pratz's system stops booting at the busybox emergency shell, probably the root fs isn't found07:31

vishnushello everyone ... Im using Ubuntu 11.04 64bit. i have ZTE AC8700 data card with me. I have the the dialer driver for 32bit. its not letting me install it in my system saying wrong architecture. any solution? problem is i can access net via mobile broadband connection. but is super slow. It works very fast without disconnection in Windows. im currently in Windows coz the net is not stable....07:51

LilleCarlkalinka, none of the apt commands? because when a installation hungs up then you need to repair some index or smth07:52
kalinkaI posted a question to msttcorefonts package maintainer in lauchpad, still no luck07:52
LilleCarlkalinka, it might be gnome-terminal! happened to me several times that it just hungs up :S07:52

LilleCarlkalinka, hmm nvm then xD07:53
almoxarifekalinka: why not run the dpkg....... ?07:53

KM0201the_misfit: why would someone want a "netbook interface" on a 21in monitor?10:42
the_misfitKM0201: good point10:43
KM0201the_misfit: the interface, makes sense on netbooks, and probably for some users, even on some laptops... but on a desktop?  it just looks ridiculous.10:43
the_misfitKM0201: its coming along though, read the unity report (weekly, lol) on omgbuntu10:44
KM0201the_misfit: see, the thing is.. 11.04, unity is obviously very rough... 11.10, it'll probably be a bit better, but by 11.10, they'r egoing to be trying to implement gnome 3... which is liable to make 11.10 suck pretty hard to... my point is, ubuntu may not see a halfway decent release again, until 12.04, maybe 12.1010:45

BluesKajto do a live cd , what do you mean, Scribbled2x?11:14
epzil0nScribbled2x: one advise is that you check that you have a md5sum match of the iso-file you downloaded and then burn it at slowest speed and do not use the computer for anything else11:14

baloooHi,  I tried to install ubuntu as a dual boot and that messed my windows up.  So then I used a recovery usb that i made to restore windows 7's MBR,  I  clicked the Repair Startup option which completed without error.  My problem now is that, windows will only boot if I have the usb in the machine,  if there is no usb in the machine, it gives me a grub error11:37
Dr_Willis|2hannofcart__:  i think its a dpkg option.  I always just use synaptic to see the details on packages.11:37
golterGuten tag leute11:37
Dr_Willis|2hannofcart__:  or use 'mc' to view the contents of the .deb   there is a commandline tool to do it..  i just never use it11:37

bliket_hey, I wrote my own software to handle some incomming tcp connections and the such. for some reason after making like 5000 connections with maybe 200 or so active connections my sockets stop listening and connections get refused. I heard they may be a limit of maximum processes/files open on a per user basis. I also heard this can be changed with "ulimit -a", my question is there some way to get a user's statistics on how much usage11:46
vishaltelangreGryllida: host: parse of /etc/resolv.conf failed11:46
MrsBvishaltelangre: close firefox and restart networking sudo /etc/init.d/network restart (it might be networking rather than network, its vaires across distro's and Im not on ubuntu now to check)11:46
Delta_my wireless card is not stable. whenever I download for a long period of time at 1MB/s it kind of get stuck and I have to disable and reenable my wireless card to get it working again. I am using a PAE kernel. Can this be the cause?11:46
Dr_Willis|2ledjo:  if a usb device when plugged in - does not get a /dev/sdXX entry assigned to it.. then theres somthing wrong with the kernel, or drivers, or device.11:46
aciculabliket_: ulimit shows you the limits11:47
Dr_Willis|2ledjo:  unless its some sort of special usb device.  - i cant think of ny usb storage tht dosent use sdXX11:47
Gryllidavishaltelangre, ok, `sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf` and pastebin the file contents, please. This file is related to DNS and may be broken for you.11:47

ledjothose are 2 fat flashes and a psp that all worked untill yesterday, i.e. they were automounted. then yesterday they wouldn't automount anymore. I could see that they were  using dev sdc1 so I could mount them phisically but since yesterday evening that doesnt work any more, so I can lsusb see them..11:47
aciculabliket_: they are set in /etc/security/ somewhere11:47
bliket_acicula: is there any way to tell the current usage?11:47
aciculabliket_: think its called limit.conf11:47
MrsBvishaltelangre: if still no good then log out and log back in again, as a last resort you could reboot. It sounds like you have a 'windows friendly' router11:47
Dr_Willis|2ledjo:  does 'sudo fdisk -l' show them?11:47
ledjono11:47
aciculabliket_: i would guess for filehandlers you can look with lsof11:48
Dr_Willis|2ledjo:  then you got a deeper issue..  when you plug them -  wait a moment or two. then check 'dmesg' output..  do dmesg a few times  a few sec apart. and see if any info on the device shows up11:48

aciculabliket_: lsof lists every open file, not for just one process11:50
Dr_Willis|2ledjo:  i just got off work. :)  from what ive heard so far.. its pointong to either a bad usb port. or cable. or some very weird kernel issue..  a interesting test would be to see if a ubuntu live cd, and some other disrto (like tinycorelinux) could activate the device. IF one of those work.. check the  'lsmod' output to see what modules are getting loaded.11:50

TimothyAI still don't know how he managed to bruteforce a 256 long character password in the first place16:26
ActionParsnipwerwaffel: sounds like DNS to me. If you run:  gksudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf   delete all the text and add:   nameserver 8.8.8.8    save the new file, then try web browsing :)16:26
PiciTimothyA: Anyway, if you boot from recovery mode you should be able to change your root password.  You then can work on securing it properly.16:26
qinTimothyA: Fisrt think is to get all logs to review situation.16:26
PiciTimothyA: That does sound fishy.16:26

=== BlouBlou is now known as BlouTroll
Ceno3xdoes anyone know where can I get a package for kernel 2.6.39 for 11.04? i used to go to the kernel-team ppa, but for some reason it doesn't seem to be working...16:31
ikoniaCeno3x: why would you want that kernel ?16:31
furqanHi, i want to swap my CapsLock key with left control key.How can i do that in ubuntu 10.4 ?16:31
qinfurqan: xbinkeys?16:32
Ceno3xikonia: I'm having issues with virtualbox and I think it's a kernel bug16:32
xanguaCeno3x: google ubuntu kernel deb16:32
xanguaand use it on your own risk16:32
ikoniaCeno3x: why ?16:32
werwaffel@ActionParsnip: its still not working16:32
furqanqin, what is this. sorry i'm noob?16:32
Ceno3xxangua: is 11.10 running 2.6.39? maybe I could get a package from its reps?16:33
werwaffel@ActionParsnip: Ubuntu is always telling me i need a permission to connect... and i have to enter my Key16:33
werwaffel@ActionParsnip: Then i do it16:33
werwaffel@ActionParsnip: And its connecting very long16:33
ikoniaCeno3x: no16:33
ikoniaCeno3x: do not do that16:33
xanguawerwaffel: automatic login enabled¿16:33
ikoniaCeno3x: why do you think you have a kernel bug16:33
ActionParsnipwerwaffel: does the dmesg output tell you anything?16:33
werwaffel@ActionParsnip: And it asks for permission again16:33
Picixangua: Please don't refer people to google like that.16:33
ActionParsnipwerwaffel: could try disabling ipv616:33
werwaffel@ActionParsnip: what dmesg?16:33
TimothyAof course, it refuses to boot into rescue mode16:34
qinfurqan: Application which let you maniupalate input devices, but better would be to edit keboard layout.16:34
ActionParsnipwerwaffel: just after you re-enter the password, run:  dmesg | tail    what is output?16:34
=== BlouTroll is now known as BlouBlou
Ceno3xikonia: it's a medium sized explanation, are you familiar with virtualbox and how the kernel works, those kind of things?16:34
ikoniaCeno3x: yes16:34
werwaffel@ActionParsnip: I could paste it in pastebin... moment16:34
furqanqin, but how can i do that?16:35
Ceno3xCeno3x: ok, so I was running 10.04 last week and I set up a VM with 10.04 running the xenomai kernel, and all was good16:35
Ceno3xikonia: see above, sorry16:35
ikoniaCeno3x: I see16:36
werwaffel@ActionPasnip: http://pastebin.com/Vq7ak7ry16:36
ViderizeHello, I've been using Ubuntu for a while now (installed with wubi). Today, when I booted Ubuntu; It told me that something is corrupted/missing and told me to do 'chkdsk /r' in Windows. So I did this and rebooted to Windows and again to Ubuntu, but It gave me the same screen again.16:36
Ceno3xikonia: now I installed kubuntu 11.04, and it's not good. I installed vbox, imported my VM, installed the latest guest additions, but my system freezes if I try to do a heavy disk operation like copying a large file, or installing a large program16:36
ikoniaCeno3x: ok, why do you think that is a kernel bug ?16:37
ViderizeAlso my version is 10.04 Lucid16:37
ViderizeI hope I didn't lose all my data and need to reinstall ubuntu...16:37
ActionParsnipwerwaffel: if you drop the @ symbol when addressing people, it will highlight the name like my text does to you16:37
werwaffelActionParsnip: Okay16:38
ActionParsnipwerwaffel: http://adam.rosi-kessel.org/weblog/2008/06/21/a-much-simpler-fix-for-the-r8169-link-down-problem16:38
Ceno3xikonia: because the only difference between ubuntu 10.04 and 11.04 from vbox's perspective is the kernel, and there's a big warning saying that due to a kernel bug running an ext4 guest on a ext4 host can cause problems. the warning was always there, but I'm only witnessing any effect now16:38
werwaffelActionParsnip: maybe some things i say sound weird... im german and im trying the best to translate good ;)16:39
ViderizeI also tried looking for the c:\found.0000 But nothing was found16:39
Ceno3xikonia: makes sense? I might be mistaken, and I hope I am, it'd be a lot less trouble for me16:39
ActionParsnipCeno3x: then use ext3....16:39
=== Bhavesh_A_P_ is now known as Bhavesh_A_P
guntbertCeno3x: to work around that bug just enable host i/o cache for the virtual  sata controller16:39
=== ticaozinho is now known as tdutra
Ceno3xguntbert: tried it, no effect16:39
Ceno3xActionParsnip: that requires reinstalling and I'd like to avoid that16:40
guntbertCeno3x: no, if the vm is corrupted already16:40
guntberts/no,/not/16:40
ActionParsnipCeno3x: may be the way forward, you can always use !clone + backups16:41
Ceno3xguntbert: I don't think there was any filesystem corruption per se, after the system freeze I loaded it again and it was like nothing hhapened16:41
Syd23ohk bye16:41
Ceno3xActionParsnip: my problem is the custom kernel I'm running, configuring and compiling takes a while...16:41
guntbertActionParsnip: the bug may happen when the host system is ext4 and the sata controller is used16:42
sudokillCeno3x, look at the io schedulers maybe idk16:42
werwaffelActionParsnip: what would change if i solve the problem in the way you sent? (Sry i didnt got the text complete... more complexe english)16:42
guntbertCeno3x: from what you tell me I suspect it is not *that* bug16:42
ActionParsnipwerwaffel: not sure, seems to be a thing I found. Are you plugging an d unplugging the wired connection?16:42
ikoniaCeno3x: ok - so why do you think that bug is fixed in the later kernel ?16:43
Ceno3xguntbert: probably not. but it's probably a kernel thing, don't you agree?16:43
Ceno3xikonia: there's only one way to find out...16:43
ikoniaCeno3x: and the kernel is not the only difference, the libraries that run the OS are different, the binarys that make up the virtual machine are different16:43
guntbertCeno3x: I cannot guess :)16:43
ActionParsnipCeno3x: could try the 3.x kernel16:43
ikoniaCeno3x: no - that's not the way to do it, updating random comre components of the OS16:43
werwaffelActionParsnip: Yes every time i try to connect via WLAN16:43
koffeehaushi, when you have an icon set where is the ubuntu badge stored that shows up on the applications panel?16:43
ActionParsnipwerwaffel: I see, then that explains the dmesg alerts so you don't have an issue there.16:44
dagerivI have to files with lists of names, I want to see which names are missing in one of the lists. diff checks line by line, not what I need. Options?16:44
dageriv*two16:44
ActionParsnipwerwaffel: can you give a pastebin of:  sudo lshw -C network; lsb_release -a; rfkill list16:44
guntbertdageriv: sort them prior to diffing...16:44
Ceno3xikonia: indeed, it's just a hunch. that would be easily verifiable if there was a kernel package available... I was going straight to kvm, but I had that idea16:44
sudokillkoffeehaus, not sure, maybe usr share icons16:44
ikoniaCeno3x: a hunch - you've not done any research on it and you want upgrade a core component of the OS16:45
koffeehaussudokill i'm in usr/share/icons/themeN right now, but can;t find the badge16:45
Ceno3xikonia: why are you so shocked with the idea of the upgrading the kernl?16:45
ikoniaCeno3x: there is so much more to incestigate16:45
Ceno3xikonia: yes, but I have a thesis to write <16:46
ActionParsnipikonia: incestigate haaha16:46
sudokillCeno3x, a lot of people use vbox with standard kernel16:46
sudokillfine16:46

guntbert!root | tilerendering16:54
ubottutilerendering: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo16:54
scorchgeektilerendering: well, usually in ubuntu you don't have a root password...16:54
Ceno3xsudokill: really? by changing fstab? how?16:54

ikoniaCeno3x: it's still an ext4 file system16:54
tilerenderingwell but... I cant figure the pwd for sudo either :/16:54

ViderizeIt's your own password16:55
Picitilerendering: hint, its your password.16:55
scorchgeektilerendering: it's your own16:55
rwwYou can only mount ext4 partitions as ext3 if they don't use extents. It's probably using extents.16:55
scorchgeekif you don't know your own password, well, that's another problem :)16:55
ikoniaCeno3x: instead of doing a wget, do something like a large file copy or an scp see if that causes the io problem you see16:55
Ceno3xikonia: formating the drive is my last resort, my host took forever to install properly, my guest is running a custom real time kernel that I have to compile manualy again16:55

ikoniaCeno3x: on virutal machine guests, time is provided by the host, and it's basically dependant on cpu cycles issuing clock updates, you're running a real time kernel on the guest, in your opinion is it possible the io issue is due to a time (not time as in clock) loop being created between io write acknowledgements and the real time update stuck waiting for the next free cyle17:00

rwwtilerendering: correct. passwd is coded to require your current password.17:06
tilerendering:/17:06
smwtilerendering, every option involves you either su-ing to root or physical access17:06
dr_willistilerendering:  you will have to use safe mode or a live cd to set a new password.17:06

tilerenderingI have no physical access to the instance17:07

ikoniatilerendering: you can request a password reset17:07
Ceno3xikonia: maybe the problem is me importing the appliance? I'm gonna try to install stock ubuntu 10.04  on a new one and see if the problem persists, the installation is rather quick17:07

ActionParsnipwerwaffel: change it in your router17:08
smwtilerendering, in that case, you are screwed :-)17:08
tilerenderingso rebooting without making sure that everything is unmounted properly before that is not possible17:08

This worked fine on Ubuntu 8. That command is also in /etc/rc.local. Now with Ubuntu 10, while the initial spawn works, I always find after some hours that PHP is no longer running. This is a production server, so a quite odd issue. nothing in /var/log/messages17:19

ikoniaCeno3x: I appreciate that's not the best diagnosis,17:30
Ceno3xikonia: hm, with ext4 the VM was aborted during the formating, does this happen in ram? at some point it has to be commited to disk at least. As a side note, I'm also passing pcie_aspm=force as a boot parameter17:30
Ceno3xikonia: lol I've been at this since yesterday, you still think trying a different kernel is useless?17:31
ikoniaCeno3x: it doesn't happen "in ram" but think about it, your machine is a machine running in the ram of a guest, which has ram allocated to it from the ram of a guest17:31
ikoniaCeno3x: I don't think this is a kernel problem in honesty17:31
ikoniaCeno3x: that doesn't mean I'm right, but there is nothing you've said that points at a kernel issue beyond the hard lock - which makes me lean more towards a hardware issue at this time17:32

Ceno3xikonia: the thing is it's related to filesystem operation, there might be some weird thing going on there you see.  Jumping to a hardware problem is I think much more far-fetched, everything was fine 4 days ago when it was a 10.04 host instead of 11.04...17:34
rwwsafire: which version of Ubuntu are you using?17:34

ubottusafire: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa.17:35

peterhilIs there some way to 1) select virtual consoles 2) Kill X 3) Switch X modes by default on Ubuntu. I have problems with video driver apparently. It very frequently gives vertical stripes on the display21:58
BrianHNo, they billed me the right amount.  I paid for Illumination Software Creator, but I didn't realize it was an outdated version and that the software center is going to screw me by only providing me with an Ubuntu license.21:58

froqjimmie, i don't understand your Q, wanna repeat it?21:59
ActionParsnip!latest | BrianH21:59
ubottuBrianH: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa.21:59
* uRock wonders -- "Should I be installing grub before trying to restart my system?"21:59

robin0800_nicofs: think if you remove your machine under devices and reboot and then sign in again22:00
almoxarifeI have an odd problem, I like using Miro, Miro does a really good job of keeping a video library current if you use it, I also like using ps3server, it allows me to watch that video from miro on the big screen, my issue comes down to somehow having miro accept that the show being watched thru ps3server is equal to being seen thru miro ( then it would update, remove the stale and d/l new stuff) , so, how does one in terminal fake out22:00
canu-qummsudokill: turns out its recommended to have the man file.22:01
canu-qummsudokill: because it contains the config.h file which is used to customize the dwm.22:01
sudokillthe man file probbaly ownt help much22:01
uRockThanks sudokill I was worried that I needed the boot sector from WIndows in tact. thanks again22:01
canu-qummsudokill: then what shall I do?22:01
sudokilluRock, nah, if grub was what booted both OS's then dont worry about the deleted windows it'll still boot22:01
BrianHSo I have to get shafted by the Software Center until they think it's a stable version to release?  I could have otherwise purchased the same software directly from the developers and received ALL versions (Ubuntu, Mac, Linux) with access to the most recent versions.22:01

almoxarifecanu-qumm: why can't you install dwm like you did the others?22:04

odamdoes ubuntu work for laptops?22:05

ActionParsnipodam: yes22:05
BrianHsudokill, I can understand why they wouldn't host the "latest" version if that were the case, but I don't even have access to use the latest version because the Ubuntu Software Center doesn't even give me a real license.22:06

cpruittWhen editing /etc/default/grub do I add new parameters INSIDE of quotes and if so are they separated by spaces (as command line options are?  So for example would `GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet"` become `GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet noapic"` or `GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet" noapic` ?  Everything I'm reading just says to "add it to the end of the line" but nothing seems to indicate the correct syntax.22:25

DarkMHi guys22:29
DarkMI'm having troubles with shrinking/growing my raid partitions. I got md2 & md1, I managed to shrink md2, but when I try to grow md1 it says no free space left on disk, any ideas ?22:29
cpruittActionParsnip: Thanks very much.  That's very helpful.  If I do something wrong will `sudo update-grub2` alert me and cancel the update or just hose my boot loader?  ;-)22:29
canu-qummalmoxarife: kay dude22:29
DarkMAnybody ? :/22:31
rewtis md1 first on the drive?  when you shrunk md2, did it just free up space after it, so you have: md1, md2, space ?22:32
DarkMrewt: Its a raid device so basically I got this :22:32
Geekydude4Does anyone know if there is a C programming channel?22:32

joeproshi i run a pc repair shop.  I have a visual basic program i use to install basic software on windows pcs...acroreader, service packs, etc.  I run it off a flash drive now but it has gotten over 8 gigs. was hoping someone new a server that would run this for me22:33
DarkMI want my sda1 and sdb1 to get space from sda2 and sdb222:33
DarkMSo I managed to shrink md222:33
DarkMAt least it seems like it22:33
Nobgul-bncjoepros, this is #ubuntu help channel. Not sure that this is the right place to ask that question, honestly not sure what channel to point you towards either22:34
xyosjoepros try http://ninite.com22:34
nicofsIn my energy options in the section "When battery power is critically low" I can only choose between Suspend/Hibernate/Shutdown - I want neither... Is that possible?22:34
rewtyeah, so when you shrunk that, you probably created space between sda2 and sda3 (and similar on sdb)22:34
rewtyou may need to nudge sda/b2 down to sda/b3 to make space between sda/b1 and sda/b222:35

sudokillyou could try it23:29

extraclassicduvel: rhythmbox is a lot like iTunes23:29
FluttershyFanonly 1 problem.. I dont have any more live cd's23:29
duvelFluttershyFan: Ubuntu 10 works fantastically. I'm using it now23:29
duvelextraclassic: Can't sync my iPhone with Rhythmbox23:30
sudokillFluttershyFan, you should pick up a cdrw or dvdrw that way you can play around with what you want23:30
lewisperryHow do you change your external ip adress?23:30

kanlacismHi, I just updated Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04 (VirtualBox VM in a Windows Vista host) and now it won't boot. It just hangs on the splash screen (Ubuntu logo with red dots under it) - What can I do?23:30
sudokilldisc i mean23:30
extraclassicduvel: iTunes doesn't work in Wine as far as I know23:30
duvelextraclassic: Okay, Thank you.23:30
julie101010lewisperry, if on DSL, you could probably just restart the modem, otherwise contact your ISP23:31
duvellewisperry: install TOR :)23:31
vaibhavkanlacism, get Ubuntu as the host, Windows as the guest; that would be the best bet :D23:31
FluttershyFanhey im having the same problem as kanlacism23:31
julie101010anyone know how to setup identd for gnome xchat?23:31
sudokillFluttershyFan, get a blank disc and try 10.1023:32
kanlacismvaibhav: I'm not gonna screw around with my setup if I don't have to. It was working fine until I did the dist upgrade. Are you saying 11.04 is incompatible with VirtualBox?23:32
sudokillhas so much less problems23:32
sudokillall i hear is people cant boot with 11.0423:32
sudokillor its slow23:32
extraclassiclewisperry: I heard somewhere you could unplug your modem and wait a couple hours and the ISP would give you another IP...depends on the lease time though23:32
sudokillnormally lease time is years23:32
vaibhavkanlacism, I think you should check out the Vbox version instead.23:32
sudokillmaybe some isps are different23:32
duveljulie101010, you have to forward the port on your router to your internal ip address23:33
extraclassicbad idea I guess23:33
julie101010duvel, which port does it use?23:33
vaibhavkanlacism, moreover, its VISTA... so anything can fail anytime. I have really bad experiences with that OS...it bloody came free with my laptop.23:33
sudokillidk maybe some isps do that but i doubt it you normally have an ip for a long long time unless you phone isp23:33
duveljulie101010, port 11323:33
julie101010thanks23:33
FluttershyFanwell taking out my graphics card fixed my ubuntu 11 freezing at splash screen problem. maby 11 is just very uncompatible with gfx cards23:34
duveljulie101010, no problem23:34
sudokillFluttershyFan, i think its just a bad release in general23:34

fishsceneGreetings! I am using Ubuntu 10.04. I'm trying to create a launcher that opens a network folder based on the logged-in user's name. For example: smb://moo.grasslands.farm/barn/user/$LOGNAME.   However, the launcher literally tries to open a folder called $LOGNAME, instead of seeing it as a system variable. Is there a way to tell it that $LOGNAME is a variable?23:50
