| misreckoning | kroq-gar78: yes guys, I'm talking with you from Ubuntu which runs on one of those two disks | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| misreckoning | and I want both of them dead | 00:00 |
| ozzloy | halp! i have a running ubuntu classic session on ctrl+alt+f7 right now that won't display anything other than the mouse right now | 00:00 |
| misreckoning | before I send the PC to RMA | 00:00 |
| a_failure | nesoi: can you plug in directly? | 00:00 |
| astraljava | misreckoning: From `shred --help`, "Overwrite the specified FILE(s) repeatedly, in order to make it harder | 00:00 |
| vlt | misreckoning: You will be able to shred. No matter if it's mounted or not. | 00:00 |
| astraljava | sorry | 00:00 |
| ozzloy | i left the computer, came back after a while, now i can only get a terminal in ctrl+alt+f1 | 00:01 |
| kroq-gar78 | vlt: won't some files be locked? | 00:01 |
| ozzloy | bluetooth mouse still works | 00:01 |
| misreckoning | vlt: I believe so, just, I hope it won't make any kernel panics etc | 00:01 |
| ozzloy | usb keyboard still works | 00:01 |
| ASrock | Is there a way I can have my windows show up on the panel with just the icons, no text, like Windows 7? Thats about the only thing I really like about windows lol | 00:01 |
| ozzloy | something is up with X | 00:01 |
| KongTA | hello for someone new to ubuntu am i better to use the long term support version or the bleeding edge version it is for an msi laptop CR640 | 00:01 |
| ozzloy | how do i trouble shoot this? | 00:01 |
| misreckoning | kroq-gar78: it should work on lower level than file system lock mechanism | 00:01 |
| kroq-gar78 | ASrock: look at docky. | 00:01 |
| vlt | kroq-gar78: shred on the block device doesn't care for anything that happens in the file system ;-) | 00:01 |
| kroq-gar78 | vlt: didn't know that :) | 00:02 |
| misreckoning | vlt: we'll see | 00:02 |
| ASrock | kroq-gar78 theres no way I can do it just using the stock panels? | 00:02 |
| a_failure | nesoi: if you have wireless tools the way to go about setting it up would be to sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid YourNetwork key s:YourPassword and then sudo dhclient wlan0 | 00:02 |
| misreckoning | damn, I'm so afraid I forgot to backup something... | 00:02 |
| nesoi | a_failure, it claimes that network manager is installed | 00:02 |
| === Guest90833 is now known as zkriesse | ||
| === Logan_ is now known as [Live]_ | ||
| nesoi | it shows a little icon like on macos on the top right of the screen as if you could click on that and see a list of available ssids | 00:03 |
| kroq-gar78 | ASrock: not too sure... I'm pretty sure you can't, but not COMPLETELY sure... | 00:03 |
| jAguAr_ | a_failure, would that work with my wireless internet issue also? | 00:03 |
| a_failure | nesoi: your network settings are in /etc/network/interfaces | 00:03 |
| KongTA | hello for someone new to ubuntu am i better to use the long term support version or the bleeding edge version it is for an msi laptop CR640 | 00:03 |
| ASrock | kroq-gar78: well I'm installing docky now... ill check it out... thanks again | 00:03 |
| vlt | misreckoning: The only thing you should know: As long as the kernel thinks it controls the file system and (if any) swap space -- maybe you could run "swapoff -a" -- it will continue to write. So parts of files with more or less sensitive content could be written to parts of the disk that just has been shred. | 00:03 |
| ozzloy | just checking, can anyone see this stuff i'm typing right now? | 00:04 |
| a_failure | jAguAr_: what issue | 00:04 |
| KongTA | No I cant ozzloy | 00:04 |
| kroq-gar78 | ozzloy:yes | 00:04 |
| ryan__ | I can't alt-tab out of a fullscreen application, anyone know why? | 00:04 |
| jAguAr_ | i can connect to the net thru a wired internet connection, but not a wireless one | 00:04 |
| kroq-gar78 | ozzloy: as in i can see the stuff you just entered | 00:04 |
| ozzloy | KongTA, heh, thanks | 00:04 |
| ozzloy | kroq-gar78, thanks | 00:04 |
| KongTA | hello for someone new to ubuntu am i better to use the long term support version or the bleeding edge version it is for an msi laptop CR640 | 00:05 |
| a_failure | ryan__: no i don't but if you alt+space you should be able to control the window | 00:05 |
| astraljava | KongTA: Basically, LTS releases are safer for new users. The ones between LTS releases _might_ have some issues occasionally. If you want to play safe, and don't care for the latest and greatest, then I'd suggest an LTS release for you. | 00:05 |
| nesoi | a_failure, apt-get reports that it's already at tle latest version | 00:05 |
| misreckoning | vlt: thanks, that's good to know! | 00:05 |
| Corey | KongTA: I prefer stability over features. Up to you though. | 00:05 |
| engammalsko | Hi installed two windows 7 by mistake, I deleted the first one, but in the windows boot menu it still shows up two windows 7, with the first installed that is not working. Anyone know if there is a file I can edit or delete? Or should I ask in #windows instead? | 00:05 |
| vlt | misreckoning: To absolutely prevent this you could remount everything in ro mode. Try pressing Sys-Rq+u. | 00:05 |
| nesoi | so how do I see if the wireless is configured right? there is supposed to be a widget which shows the available ssids, but I don't find it | 00:05 |
| jAguAr_ | engammalsko, that's in the grub.menu (i think) | 00:06 |
| misreckoning | vlt: wow, what's that? | 00:06 |
| misreckoning | the shortcut? | 00:06 |
| === [Live]_ is now known as Charlie_Sheen | ||
| kroq-gar78 | misreckoning: yes that's the hotkey/shortcuy | 00:06 |
| vlt | misreckoning: SysRq+u is short for "umount everything and remount in ro mode" | 00:06 |
| misreckoning | SysRq!? | 00:07 |
| vlt | misreckoning: Guess what SysRq+o means ;-) | 00:07 |
| kroq-gar78 | it should be on the top-right of your keyboard | 00:07 |
| KongTA | That is what i figured but isnt it silly to use the long term version 10.04 learn in then once you have upgraded in the future you will have to re learn it as the new version will use Unity? | 00:07 |
| rww | misreckoning: SysRq is usually the PrintScreen key | 00:07 |
| ozzloy | kroq-gar78, do you know how to troubleshoot this scenario: dual monitor, left machine idle so screen blanked, now displays only the mouse moving around on black background, vt1 works (how i'm in here), vt7 displayed the window contents sans dressing after switching back to vt7 but flickered, went back to vt1, back to vt7 which now just shows black with cursor moving around | 00:07 |
| misreckoning | ah -.- | 00:07 |
| VCoolio | !sysrq | misreckoning | 00:07 |
| ubottu | misreckoning: In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 00:07 |
| engammalsko | jAguAr_: No, first is the grub menu, where I can choose windows7 or ubuntu 11, if I choose windows7 I have a second menu with 2 windows7. It's the second menu I wanna edit. It has nothing to do with Linux, but maybe I could ask here since I can edit and show all windows file in ubuntu (which I can't in windows I think) | 00:07 |
| rww | misreckoning: a lot of keyboards don't label that it's SysRq since Windows doesn't use it | 00:07 |
| misreckoning | ^^ | 00:07 |
| engammalsko | I have system reserved > Boot folder, maybe I could change something there? | 00:07 |
| misreckoning | thanks this is totally new for me :D | 00:07 |
| a_failure | nesoi: you'll have to set your /etc/network/interfaces to handle dhcp for the device you wish to use and be sure /etc/resolv.conf has your nameservers in it.. if you can tell iwconfig what the parameters are--essid and encrypted password etc. then you can have linux set the resolv.conf for you just by issuing sudo dhclient wlan0 | 00:08 |
| w30 | engammalsko, ubuntu's grub will think your windows recovery partition is a windows install | 00:08 |
| w30 | engammalsko, so check that out | 00:08 |
| engammalsko | w30: I'm not talking about grub! | 00:08 |
| kroq-gar78 | ozzloy: no sorry, don't know anything about monitors really. you could always try asking on the forums (ubuntuforums.org) if nobody here knows the answer | 00:08 |
| vlt | misreckoning, rww: Usually some modifyer key (like AltGr) and PrtScrn. | 00:08 |
| nesoi | a_failure, this 11.4 was a super automatic setup. I can't believe that after that it makes you edit config files | 00:08 |
| engammalsko | w30: The menu was there before I even installed ubuntu. It's alot like grub but for windows. | 00:09 |
| ozzloy | kroq-gar78, kk | 00:09 |
| a_failure | nesoi: anything you're doing in a graphical mode is editing config files behind your back | 00:09 |
| vlt | rww: I've never seen any w/o SysRq label ... | 00:09 |
| cyberwave | yoyo | 00:09 |
| ozzloy | ps shows all the programs still running | 00:09 |
| cyberwave | can anybody hear me? | 00:09 |
| ozzloy | which is cool | 00:09 |
| ozzloy | cyberwave, yes, i can! | 00:09 |
| cyberwave | believe it or not, but i think i have a virus on my ubuntu machine | 00:10 |
| w30 | engammalsko, is grub sending you to a windows bootloader? | 00:10 |
| kroq-gar78 | cyberwave: i can't hear you, but i can see ur messages. | 00:10 |
| cyberwave | it's just a standard issue dell desktop brought back to life. It's like a Pentium 3 | 00:10 |
| rww | vlt: I have :) | 00:10 |
| nesoi | a_failure, I know, but if the installation to a highly supported system doesn't work and can't work without enditing files in /etc that's a big problem | 00:10 |
| kroq-gar78 | cyberwave: why do you think so | 00:10 |
| astraljava | engammalsko: Then that's not a ubuntu support issue, please take it elsewhere, we don't support windows here. | 00:10 |
| engammalsko | w30: Exactly like this, you can see that that isn't grub, right? http://www.shrani.si/f/41/PO/3wbxR1Qi/dual-boot-screen.jpg | 00:10 |
| nesoi | so is everyone sure there's no way to get wireless to work on a dell xps m1330 without editing config files? | 00:10 |
| cyberwave | after about 5 minutes, from boot-up time | 00:10 |
| kroq-gar78 | rww: :O | 00:10 |
| DasEi | cyberwave: use htop to see what's doing it | 00:10 |
| a_failure | nesoi: if you prefer to let the manger configure your network and all that just do so with the correct password and network name but if it still won't connect use dhclient wlan0 to issue you an ip which ought to set the resolv.conf for you | 00:11 |
| cyberwave | it just starts showing gay porn still pictures and saying "hahahah a you're a stupid nigger faggot suck my dick u cunt fag" | 00:11 |
| engammalsko | astraljava: Okay, but they don't have so good support but, yeah. You're right. Thanks and bye. | 00:11 |
| astraljava | nesoi: You're not seeing anything even _remotely_ like this? http://www.techotopia.com/images/d/de/Ubuntu_10.10_networkmanager_menu.jpg | 00:11 |
| nesoi | where would I see that URL? | 00:11 |
| Electron | Every freakin time my screensaver comes on i lose my wi-fi connection, WTH | 00:11 |
| astraljava | engammalsko: I know. They should learn from linux/ubuntu/whatever. :) | 00:11 |
| nesoi | oh, no | 00:12 |
| nesoi | no ssids show | 00:12 |
| a_failure | nesoi: also check that the light is on, if not use ifconfig <device> up | 00:12 |
| w30 | engammalsko, my guess you need to edit grub to go to your actual windows install instead of the windows bootloader | 00:12 |
| engammalsko | astraljava: Haha yeah ^^ But I'm happy that I've finally got an game slave :D | 00:12 |
| nesoi | I don't know what the device is | 00:12 |
| ozzloy | nesoi, probably wlan0 but ifconfig will list devices on your system | 00:13 |
| engammalsko | w30: Well that could work, but I also think that grub would take me directly to windows instead of bootloader if there only was one windows. | 00:13 |
| nesoi | what light? under wireless connections in network connections, there isn't one | 00:13 |
| engammalsko | w30: I don't know anything about grub, so if it's pretty easy and you can help me then just tell me :) | 00:13 |
| a_failure | nesoi: light on your laptop? idk what you've got but the device is probably wlan0 | 00:13 |
| w30 | engammalsko, i donno | 00:14 |
| astraljava | nesoi: a_failure meant some sort of light in the laptop itself, indicating the wireless adapter is active. | 00:14 |
| engammalsko | w30: That's sucks. | 00:14 |
| nesoi | I don't know of such a light | 00:14 |
| jooost | Hey there! I've got a question. I've ordered a cheap chinese-make remote control over the internet. My remote control works great with Ubuntu applications like Banshee, being able to play, pause and adjust system volume. However, as soon as I start XBMC, play a movie in VLC or have any flash playing in the webbrowser, the little red light on the IR receiver blinks wildly and keeps blinking, and the signals of my remote almost never s | 00:14 |
| jooost | Does anyone know if this is a common problem with IR remotes? | 00:14 |
| astraljava | nesoi: Can you access a terminal on that machine? If so, then could you pastebin the output of `lspci | grep -i net`, please? | 00:14 |
| lighta | engammalsko, may you ask your grub question again plz ? | 00:15 |
| martin_ | español? | 00:15 |
| a_failure | nesoi: lots of laptops have a switch for turning the wirless card on or off with a light | 00:15 |
| astraljava | !es | martin_ | 00:15 |
| ubottu | martin_: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 00:15 |
| w30 | engammalsko, I don't know enough but you need to gain an understanding of the grub names for drives like HD,0 etc. | 00:16 |
| Python | hi what;s bzr ? | 00:16 |
| engammalsko | If think I can solve my problem in windows see you : ) | 00:16 |
| astraljava | !bzr | Python | 00:16 |
| ubottu | Python: bzr is Bazaar-NG, a decentralized revision control system designed to be easy for developers and end users alike. Decentralized revision control systems give people the ability to work over the internet using the bazaar development model. See http://bazaar-vcs.org/QuickHackingWithBzr for a quickstart guide. | 00:16 |
| nesoi | oops there was a switch, I never heard of such a thing, having used macs for a long time | 00:16 |
| nesoi | now everything works | 00:17 |
| astraljava | nesoi: Good to hear! | 00:17 |
| Electron | I guess no one has a clue why you would lose your wi-fi connection upon the activation of a screensaver | 00:17 |
| nesoi | jeez... sorry for being dum | 00:17 |

| newlinux | using linux for the first time, can I assume that if I was able to get wubi to work on my system that a fresh install from disk on a wiped drive will have all the drivers necessary to get me at least to the internet? | 00:35 |
| tofaffy | newlinux: If everything worked out of the box in Wubi, I would assume that things would work fine on a fresh install. | 00:36 |
| kroq-gar78 | newlinux: i would say so, but to make sure, wait to get some more responses (im no expert) | 00:36 |
| newlinux | ok, I think all I need to do is download the disk image for Ubuntu onto a CD, wipe my drive, and boot from the CD to install? | 00:36 |
| kroq-gar78 | newlinux: and you can ask on the forums: I think even MORE people there than here | 00:36 |
| extraclassic | newlinux: there's a better chance for wireless to be screwed up, but wired has worked for me every time | 00:36 |
| h1gh | newlinux: boot as live from CD/DVD and test your box for support that way | 00:36 |
| newlinux | to boot as live, just burn a CD with the ubuntu install? | 00:37 |
| kroq-gar78 | newlinux: yes, but to make sure everything (hopefully) works just as well as it did with wubi, make sure to burn same version as the one youre using right now | 00:38 |

| jpbouza | HI! I've downloaded the rt kernel 2.6.33.29 and I can't build the nvidia drivers | 00:49 |
| jpbouza | I get the include/generated/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing error | 00:49 |
| a_failure | Andy80: i think inside the install cd it's an option such as use existing--for me it detected that i had linux all ready and this was the default choice | 00:49 |
| Andy80 | a_failure: I know that usually /home can be preserved, but please keep in mind my configuration: my /home is in 2 disks that are in RAID1. Where this raid is configured/defined? Is it automatically recognized during installation? | 00:50 |
| a_failure | Andy80: during the install i would just check to see that they have the proper label | 00:51 |
| joshlegs | oh i think i figured out how to do it. .. nevermind | 00:51 |
| joshlegs | i'll try again | 00:51 |
| a_failure | Andy80: on another not if you do format something reset the boot sector and repair the filesystem with testdisk | 00:52 |
| Andy80 | a_failure: using the desktop installer (of course choosing manual disk setup) or using alternate install cd? | 00:52 |
| a_failure | Andy80: i've never used desktop installer--i imagine it launches partmon just like every other install cd and it should pop up and say something along the lines of use existing partition table | 00:54 |
| Andy80 | a_failure: what do you use usually? | 00:54 |

| Scribbled2x | rww - Just like Uboto had one of those links explaining upstart - don't suppose he has / had / will have one of those links handy for an explanation of how Ubuntu configures its networking? | 01:27 |
| Kleus | so anyone willing to answer some q's about getting ubuntu working off a usb stick? | 01:27 |
| Kleus | and ive looked over the various forums and documentation, its not a sandisk usb, over 2gbs etc | 01:28 |
| DasEi | kleus: just ask | 01:28 |
| Kleus | i keep getting a screen full of text when i try to boot | 01:28 |
| DasEi | kleus: size ? | 01:29 |
| rww | Scribbled2x: There are two major subsystems for networking in Ubuntu. Desktop systems generally use NetworkManager, and command-line ones use /etc/network/interfaces. I don't know of factoids for them, but there's a "man interfaces" if you're using that one. | 01:29 |
| Kleus | the initial ubuntu screen comes up | 01:29 |
| Kleus | 4gb | 01:29 |
| crimson22 | if i setup a computer on a home network with ubuntu, is there a way I can control it remotely? I don't mean something like TightVNC, just be able to control it from cmd prompt and the like | 01:29 |

| DoYouKnow | well, a sim inserted | 01:29 |

| crimson22 | DasEi, sweet, thanks bud | 01:30 |

| Kleus | the usb boots fine on my main computer | 01:31 |
| DasEi | Kleus: how did you set up ? | 01:31 |
| Kleus | no issues | 01:31 |
| Kleus | i downloaded the iso on this computer and followed pendrivelinux's installer's instructions | 01:31 |
| DasEi | Kleus: can you boot safemode to access the log ? or use the working one after a fail-boot | 01:31 |
| Kleus | i havent tried booting into safe mode | 01:32 |
| DasEi | Kleus: maybe try another way, like unetbootin | 01:32 |
| ladder99 | does anyone know a good firewall and how to configure it | 01:32 |
| rww | !ufw | ladder99 | 01:32 |
| ubottu | ladder99: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Gufw (GNOME) and Guarddog (KDE Lucid and Maverick) also exist. | 01:32 |

| ExplodingPiglets | firefox no process found | 02:10 |
| ExplodingPiglets | I feel like I am being redundant. | 02:10 |
| Nobgul-bnc | No he wants a distro that will boot on a proc without cmov. Which is why i said a older kernel would not look for cmov | 02:10 |
| slacker- | szal: I have a "pendo pad" here with a "RDC 3306 1 GHz" CPU | 02:10 |
| joshlegs | cool coz_ thanks for the help :o | 02:10 |

| thrilway | Is there a way to hide the Unity Launcher when it gets stuck open? | 02:14 |
| captyler | Why "gunzip -c /home/esteban/dd/sdb9.img.gz | dd of=~/dd/sd9.img conv=sync,noerror bs=64K " doenst stop? the original partition was 60 Gb and this command goes 110 gb and continues dd-ing | 02:14 |
| sohot4u2 | how do i get shockwave on ubuntu? | 02:14 |
| Nobgul-bnc | slacker-, all indications point towards kernel 2.6.26-1-386 being the last one that did not require the cmov featre | 02:14 |

| Nobgul-bnc | sohot4u2 | !shockwave | 02:15 |
| szal | sohot4u2: did you mean: Flash? | 02:15 |
| coz_ | joshlegs, hmm not sure ,, I installed the 32 bit version | 02:15 |
| sohot4u2 | no i mean shockwave :X | 02:15 |

| sohot4u2 | thanks | 02:16 |
| soool | Hi all! how can i block all network traffic from and to a specific application? | 02:16 |
| Nobgul-bnc | slacker-, no its not at all | 02:16 |
| coz_ | joshlegs, the problem here is,, again,, I doubt many if nayone use bluegriffin ,, however you could try the ##linux channel ,, get their opinions | 02:16 |
| Nobgul-bnc | slacker-, how old is this computer? | 02:16 |
| joshlegs | cool. thanks coz_ for the tips. let me try the 32 bit real quick | 02:17 |
| slacker- | Nobgul-bnc: i don't know, it's a netbook which comes with XP | 02:17 |
| Nobgul-bnc | slacker-, got ya. Ubuntu may lag a bit | 02:17 |
| slacker- | Nobgul-bnc: don't care. all I need is dd to image the disc | 02:18 |

| Nobgul-bnc | xubuntu | 02:18 |
| slacker- | don't need x | 02:19 |
| thrilway | soool- you'll probably have to mess around with iptables | 02:19 |
| slacker- | but ok | 02:19 |
| bazhang | Nobgul-bnc, slacker- lubuntu is the lightest. xubuntu is hardly that | 02:19 |
| Nobgul-bnc | thank you bazhang, I have others i would use but they aren't ubuntu so i won't mention them here =) | 02:19 |
| slacker- | Nobgul-bnc: xubuntu i386 desktop iso is a live cd? | 02:20 |
| bazhang | well the minimal iso is the lightest | 02:20 |
| bazhang | slacker-, yes | 02:20 |
| slacker- | bazhang: i need to be able to mount fat partitions so I can store my dd | 02:21 |

| pooltable | wekk good night to all | 02:26 |
| pooltable | well | 02:26 |
| szal | slacker-: as far as I gather, for something to work on that.. thing, you need a distro that is able to run on pre-i686 architecture | 02:26 |
| slacker- | szal: i'm getting hardy | 02:26 |
| slacker- | that comes with linux-image-2.6.24-16-386 | 02:27 |
| szal | slacker-: you could put Slack on it, if that is still i486 ;) | 02:28 |
| slacker- | szal: as i said, all i need is dd on a livecd to image the disc. no putting on anythgin | 02:29 |

| jesus_ | i have a problem with sound, my ubuntu 11.04 lost the sound when i use the program | 02:34 |

| Kleus | Okay. Anyone whos seen this > http://i.imgur.com/uw27B.jpg < when trying to install off a usb, plz help | 02:34 |
| szal | slacker-: just saying that it can't hurt to have something like that at hand; a *buntu live CD is hardly a general-purpose emergency system ;) | 02:35 |
| maco | Kleus: that looks like a kernel panic. some bit of hardware is NOT happy with ubuntu | 02:35 |
| usr13 | slacker-: There are older ones, but don't think you need any older than 2.6.16 | 02:35 |
| Kleus | maco is there a way to tell what it is that ubuntu doesnt like? | 02:35 |
| slacker- | szal: i know. normally i'd just get a knoppix but i thought i'll try ubuntu based this time | 02:35 |
| bfreis | thrilway, cd: /dev/v4l: No such file or directory | 02:36 |
| maco | Kleus: you can try posting a bug report with that and your system info and maybe the kernel bug triager will have an idea if its an incompatibility. it's also possible for it to be a bit of hardware going bad (kernel panics are like blue screens of death) | 02:36 |
| bfreis | thrilway, lsusb shows no webcam -- it used to show the integrated webcam | 02:37 |
| Kleus | hmm. alright. ty maco | 02:37 |
| usr13 | I haven't used knoppix in some time, but it has always been quite a bit too bloated for my needs. | 02:37 |
| thrilway | bfreis- sorry, I think I'm out of my depth | 02:37 |
| bfreis | thrilway, ok, thanks anyway! | 02:38 |

| SharkMonkey | how do I keep a service from running at startup? | 02:43 |
| dr_willis | depends on the service | 02:45 |
| dr_willis | check /etc/init for a *.conf for it. rename the file. is one way | 02:45 |
| SharkMonkey | nginx | 02:46 |
| SharkMonkey | that seems hacky. | 02:46 |
| dr_willis | foo.conf --- becomes foo.dontrun | 02:46 |
| dr_willis | or edit the conf file | 02:46 |
| dr_willis | if its handled by upstart | 02:47 |
| dr_willis | thats how upstart docs say.. basically | 02:47 |
| dr_willis | for sysv you remove the symlinks in /etc/rc.* | 02:47 |
| SharkMonkey | the nginx.conf file is a standard nginx.conf file it has nothing ubuntu related to startup | 02:47 |
| dr_willis | is it in /etc/ ? | 02:48 |
| SharkMonkey | /etc/nginx/nginx.conf | 02:48 |
| dr_willis | /etc/init/? i mean | 02:48 |
| dr_willis | look in /etc/init/ | 02:48 |
| SharkMonkey | there is /etc/init/nginx | 02:49 |
| SharkMonkey | How would I edit it? It's a shell script. exit at the top? | 02:50 |
| dr_willis | a /etc/init/nginx.conf - either rename/move or edit whats inside it. thers some line in file to disable it running normally | 02:50 |
| dr_willis | its not a shell script i belive | 02:50 |
| jesus_ | Why my ubuntu doesn't sound? | 02:51 |
| dr_willis | its a upstart config file | 02:51 |
| dr_willis | !sound | 02:52 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 02:52 |
| rww | SharkMonkey: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#disabling-a-job-from-automatically-starting | 02:52 |
| SharkMonkey | oh i was looking at /etc/init.d/nginx | 02:52 |
| dr_willis | SharkMonkey: thats the old sysv method. but that file may just be a link to some upstart files | 02:52 |
| dr_willis | most services are moving to upstart and /etc/init/ | 02:53 |
| dr_willis | slowly moving.. | 02:53 |
| cyphaw | hello | 02:54 |
| cyphaw | I've got a small problem with wine and pulseaudio, is there someone here that may help me? | 02:54 |
| usr13 | cyphaw: Lay it out and see. | 02:54 |
| SharkMonkey | dr_willis, so how do i stop this kind? | 02:55 |
| SharkMonkey | it's not a symlink to upstart | 02:55 |
| cyphaw | ok, so thing is, I have an error when I launch wine, but I have sound. For some apps, the sound is good, for another one it's cracking | 02:55 |
| SharkMonkey | a lot of them seem to be | 02:55 |
| Stingray88 | would anyone be willing to help me mount my USB drive? | 02:55 |
| cyphaw | if I install lib32asound2-plugins to solve the error message, then I have cracking sound then no sound at all | 02:55 |
| dr_willis | if it has a /etc/init/foo.conf rename it foo.dontrun is one way i always do it | 02:55 |
| usr13 | cyphaw: is this a 64bit system? | 02:56 |
| cyphaw | yes | 02:56 |
| SharkMonkey | dr_willis, that's for upstart though right. this is the old kind. | 02:56 |
| Stingray88 | It's formatted ext4, but it's not showing up under media | 02:56 |
| === sour is now known as funkeyy | ||
| dr_willis | SharkMonkey: it it has a a /etc/init/ its upstart the other file is sort of a fake i think... try renaming the init/foo.conf and see | 02:57 |
| usr13 | cyphaw: You may need a complete set of 32bit libraries if you are going to run 32bit applications along side the 64bit ones. | 02:57 |
| slacker- | alright, it's booting but "it may be unstable" | 02:57 |
| dr_willis | i dont think there really is sysv left. upstart is sort of fakeing it. | 02:57 |
| Stingray88 | can anyone assist me with mounting this drive? I can't remember how it's done | 02:57 |
| usr13 | cyphaw: Or, you may just need to ditch pulseaudio | 02:58 |
| dr_willis | !mount | Stingray88 | 02:58 |
| ubottu | Stingray88: mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 02:58 |
| usr13 | Stingray88: Is it a USB drive? | 02:58 |
| Stingray88 | yes | 02:58 |

| dr_willis | Stingray88: make a fstab entry for it | 02:59 |
| dr_willis | !fstab | 02:59 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 02:59 |
| usr13 | Stingray88: gparted does not format partions, it creates them. You will need to format a partition before being able to mount it. | 02:59 |
| usr13 | cyphaw: What did you install? | 03:00 |
| Stingray88 | usr13: it does format them | 03:00 |
| dr_willis | well gparted does have a format feature. ;) | 03:00 |
| ladder99 | using bluetooth phone to control computer? | 03:00 |
| usr13 | dr_willis: Ok.. I stand corrected. | 03:00 |
| dr_willis | just rember to partition then format.. not the reverse | 03:00 |
| usr13 | Stingray88: Ok, so what are you going to use it for? | 03:00 |
| jesus_ | Doesn't have sound yet :( | 03:00 |

| dr_willis | ladder99: in what way. | 03:01 |
| usr13 | Stingray88: (You will need to create a mount point that makes sense to you.) | 03:01 |

| dr_willis | usr13: noauto = mount -a wont mount it. | 03:13 |
| slacker- | dr_willis: i need one <= 2.6.26-1-386 | 03:13 |
| usr13 | dr_willis: So leave off noauto? | 03:14 |
| dr_willis | slacker-: good luck. | 03:14 |
| slacker- | dr_willis: and i don't need a build in reader. only usb flash drive and ssd | 03:14 |
| dr_willis | noauto = do not mount at boot. | 03:14 |
| usr13 | Oh, yea, that's for cdroms and such. | 03:15 |
| usr13 | Stingray88: Scratch the noauto | 03:15 |
| ladder99 | user13 and dr_willis I am impressed | 03:15 |
| usr13 | Stingray88: /dev/sdb5 /Videos auto users,rw 1 1 | 03:15 |
| usr13 | Stingray88: OR: /dev/sdb5 /Videos ext4 users,rw 1 1 | 03:15 |
| usr13 | dr_willis: RIght? | 03:15 |
| dr_willis | i think users option is pointless also for a ext4 | 03:15 |
| usr13 | Stingray88: OR: /dev/sdb5 /Videos ext4 rw 1 2 | 03:16 |
| dr_willis | and i suggest /media/videos | 03:16 |
| usr13 | dr_willis: How about that? | 03:16 |
| rcconf | hi, i have a doubt. when I need super user privileges may I use "sudo -s" so I don't have to type sudo all the time or should I use just "sudo" ? | 03:16 |
| dr_willis | and you really should use the uuid. ;) | 03:16 |
| ladder99 | does sudo timeout in linux after 5 minutes | 03:17 |
| truepurple | Can gpart format? If not, how do you format? Does one need to reformate to wipe a USB drive before putting ubuntu on it? | 03:17 |
| dr_willis | rcconf: either waay is fine. just dont forget you are in a root shell | 03:17 |
| dr_willis | truepurple: gparted has format options yes | 03:17 |
| truepurple | dr_willis: Where is it? | 03:17 |
| rcconf | dr_willis: what about "sudo -i"? is it dangerous than -s? | 03:17 |
| dr_willis | and the installer can reformat.. so no need to do it beforhand | 03:18 |
| ladder99 | im new why use the -i or -s | 03:18 |
| dr_willis | rcconf: thes a site that detailsit.. google for 'ubuntu root shell the right way' i cant find the link | 03:18 |
| ladder99 | "new" | 03:18 |
| dr_willis | -i and -s set up different envioments | 03:19 |
| dr_willis | !sudo | 03:19 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 03:19 |
| rcconf | dr_willis: k tks | 03:19 |
| dr_willis | i raly notice them being different | 03:19 |
| ladder99 | sudo lets you run as root but why the -i or -s | 03:20 |
| Stingray88 | this is way too confusing | 03:20 |
| dr_willis | to get a 'shell' | 03:20 |
| dr_willis | not a one time commnd | 03:20 |
| ladder99 | -s gives you a shell | 03:20 |
| Stingray88 | I added a USB drive before and it was not this difficult | 03:20 |
| dr_willis | Stingray88: if you just access it in the fm. it will mount on demand. | 03:21 |
| ladder99 | im new to linux | 03:21 |
| dr_willis | you want it mounted at boot add a fstab entry.. its not that hard. | 03:21 |
| dimas_ | does my 937,7 mib of ram be the reason i am having problems with letancy when i use jack? | 03:21 |
| Stingray88 | dr_willis: what is fm? I want it to be automatically mounted at boot. And the last time I set this up I did not touch fstab | 03:22 |
| ladder99 | but know a little unix and relearning | 03:22 |
| Abhijit | ladder99, sudo -i logins to root | 03:22 |
| dr_willis | Stingray88: you made an entry to fstab somehow.. thats how its done | 03:22 |
| Stingray88 | dr_willis: no, because I'm looking at it right now, and my other drive is not precent in that file, but it mounts automatically | 03:22 |
| Stingray88 | dr_willis: present* | 03:23 |
| usr13 | Stingray88: fstab - static information about the filesystems | 03:23 |
| dr_willis | what fs is it Stingray88 | 03:23 |
| ladder99 | abhijit thank you | 03:23 |
| Stingray88 | dr_willis: ext4 | 03:23 |
| dr_willis | then you accessed it in gnome file manager and it mounted it. would be my guess | 03:24 |
| usr13 | Stingray88: Do you want it to stay mounted? As in mount when you boot and stay mounted? | 03:24 |
| dr_willis | check mount command | 03:24 |
| usr13 | Stingray88: Or ....? | 03:24 |
| Stingray88 | dr_willis: what I did was done in terminal | 03:24 |
| funkeyy | HI all! ive really a strange Problem over Here... i can execute "/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/Equis/MetaStock/MsWin.exe" in a gnome-Panel quicklauncher.. but if i run it in alt+F2 or in terminal it would give me an err. "DLL9X.dll missing".. wtf?! | 03:24 |
| clcto | Stingray88: what do you have against fstab? | 03:24 |
| Stingray88 | c1cto: I don't know how to use it | 03:25 |
| usr13 | Stingray88: Is this a USB drive? | 03:25 |
| clcto | Stingray88: then learn ... man fstab | 03:25 |

| Stingray88 | It may be well documented... but to me, most things in linux are gibberish unfortunately | 03:25 |
| Stingray88 | no usr13 | 03:25 |
| Stingray88 | I need it mounted always | 03:25 |
| clcto | Stingray88: they are until you learn what they mean | 03:26 |
| usr13 | Stingray88: Then create a fstab entry for it. | 03:26 |
| Stingray88 | Heres the thing | 03:26 |

| usr13 | read ... | 03:26 |
| Stingray88 | I already have one drive setup like I want this new one setup, and it is not present in fstab | 03:26 |
| clcto | usr13: that is hard for some people who want everything done for them | 03:26 |

| Zimopik | @guest* | 04:11 |
| dr_willis | i doubt if you need that bin... but you seem determined that you do... | 04:11 |
| kroq-gar78 | Zimopik: openjdk-java6-jre sun-java6-jre | 04:11 |
| dr_willis | !java | 04:11 |
| ubottu | To install a Java runtime on Ubuntu on 10.04 LTS and newer, see http://tinyurl.com/2ffg7cc - For the Sun Java products and browser plugin, search for the sun-java6- packages in the !partner repository on Lucid (which must be enabled), or !multiverse repository on older releases. | 04:11 |
| Zimopik | @guest it should be openjdk-6-jre | 04:11 |
| Zimopik | Actually, just use kroqs list | 04:12 |
| Guest88134 | Willis you don't seem to understand the importance of updating software | 04:12 |
| Zimopik | @sd its no problem ;) thanks anyways ^^ | 04:12 |
| dr_willis | Guest88134: you dont understand the ubuntu packing system. | 04:12 |
| dr_willis | !latest | 04:12 |
| ubottu | 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. | 04:12 |
| Zimopik | Doesn't matter, just hear to answer questions, right? xD | 04:12 |
| kroq-gar78 | dr_willis: +1 | 04:12 |
| bazhang | !partner | Guest88134 | 04:12 |
| ubottu | Guest88134: Canonical's partner repositories provide packages a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" » | 04:12 |
| bazhang | !java | Guest88134 | 04:13 |

| Guest88134 | Then explain why I don't need need to update? | 04:13 |
| bazhang | Guest88134, enable partner then install java | 04:13 |
| Guest88134 | If I don't update everything java related is slow and freezes | 04:13 |
| Guest88134 | How? | 04:13 |
| Guest88134 | !partner | 04:13 |
| ubottu | Canonical's partner repositories provide packages a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" » | 04:13 |
| dr_willis | Guest88134: this is why we keep saying use the 'partner' repository. the latest may be in there. | 04:13 |
| bazhang | Guest88134, I just told you | 04:13 |
| joulez | look hes learning | 04:13 |
| Guest88134 | Ok nothing happened | 04:14 |
| Zimopik | Anyways, I'd really appreciate if any of you guys could point me in a direction that might get my mouse working... It wasn't working in 11.04 either, and my window manager seems to keep failing if I have compiz installed... | 04:14 |
| kroq-gar78 | that doesn't install java | 04:14 |
| dr_willis | you read what the bot says.. | 04:14 |
| bazhang | Guest88134, did you add the partner repo? | 04:14 |
| Guest88134 | Yes I typed in what you said to | 04:14 |
| Guest88134 | And, nothing happened | 04:14 |
| bazhang | Guest88134, what command | 04:14 |
| Delrayne1 | Got a few questions when someone has the time. | 04:14 |
| dr_willis | what did you type? | 04:14 |
| Guest88134 | sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" | 04:15 |
| bazhang | Delrayne1, ask | 04:15 |
| Zimopik | @Guest sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre | 04:15 |
| kroq-gar78 | Zimopik: don't know much about mouses/mice, but is it usb? | 04:15 |
| Abhijit | Delrayne1, just ask and wait | 04:15 |
| dr_willis | update, then install ;) | 04:15 |
| Zimopik | Wouldn't that update ubuntu fine? If not then isn't there an unstable repo or something? | 04:15 |
| bazhang | Guest88134, sudo apt-get update | 04:15 |
| Zimopik | @kroq I tried a wired and wireless | 04:15 |
| dr_willis | bbl. work time | 04:15 |
| kroq-gar78 | Zimopik: what type? ps/2 or usb? | 04:16 |
| Guest88134 | Ok, nothing happened | 04:16 |
| Guest88134 | What if you did vnc? | 04:16 |
| dr_willis | add repo, update, then install packages | 04:16 |
| Zimopik | @Kroq usb, it doesn't work with my wireless either | 04:16 |
| Guest88134 | I'm up for it if someone can help me | 04:16 |
| bazhang | after update Guest88134 install the packages | 04:16 |
| Delrayne1 | Alright, so I'm wanting to reformat my laptop hdd and wipe it clean and install ubuntu, my only problem is that the monitor on my laptop doesn't work, so I have it connected via a HDMI port to a flatscreen monitor and basically use it as a desktop...when I reformat will my HDMI port still work even though the drivers are technically erased? Or am I wrong in assuming that it won't. | 04:17 |
| kroq-gar78 | Zimopik: forums? if ppl on here don't answer after a while, I suggest using ubuntuforums.org (they're official) | 04:17 |
| Zimopik | My comp model is Pavillion 6777cb, if that helps any :) | 04:17 |
| dr_willis | i forget the exact package name now.. | 04:17 |
| === semibottu is now known as semitones | ||
| Zimopik | @kroq thanks for trying to help at least ^^ I really appreciate it xD | 04:17 |
| === `mOOse` is now known as m00se | ||
| Guest88134 | Come on Dr.Willis can you vnc me? | 04:17 |
| Guest88134 | I really need this fixed | 04:17 |
| Zimopik | And yeah, I'll prolly go to forums later :P | 04:17 |
| kroq-gar78 | Zimopik: yeah i no expert, but they're MIGHT be people here who could solve it :P | 04:18 |
| joulez | hehe | 04:18 |
| newton | newton | 04:18 |
| dr_willis | Delrayne1: i have had laptops default to external. some needed the fn-x keys to enable external on bootup. some had bios options to use either.. or to just use external. so it depends on the laptop | 04:18 |
| abu | j | 04:18 |
| Zimopik | @kroq Lol xD I'm certainly no expert, thats why I'm here ;) It does take a while to get someone to try and help though :) | 04:18 |
| === newton is now known as Guest23076 | ||
| dr_willis | Guest88134: no i can not vnc from my phone | 04:19 |
| Delrayne1 | dr_willis: I wish I understood more than just bios in that...but my laptop is a dell studio 15 if that helps at all. | 04:19 |
| Guest88134 | Ok well can anyone else? | 04:19 |
| Zimopik | @Guest We can try and walk you through it... I can't VNC right now either | 04:19 |
| dr_willis | Guest88134: use the package manager tools now to install the proper sun java packages. i dont know their names | 04:19 |
| extraclassic | Guest88134: i'll give you the steps.....(1) Open Synaptic | 04:20 |
| Guest88134 | Ok, I'll try | 04:20 |
| fedy | hello i have setup a dual boot machine with ubuntu and windows,and I have a security question on how to setup password protect for the Grub boot loader | 04:20 |
| kroq-gar78 | Guest88134: did you do "sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre"? | 04:20 |
| bazhang | Guest88134, open up synaptic package manager, search for the java plugins | 04:20 |
| dr_willis | ;) | 04:20 |
| Zimopik | @Guest do what kroq said if you haven't xD | 04:20 |
| joulez | fedy: i didn't think you could do that with grub. | 04:20 |
| Guest88134 | Ok I am | 04:20 |
| kroq-gar78 | Zimopik: lol | 04:20 |
| bazhang | sun-java6- Guest88134 | 04:21 |
| fedy | I read something on the guide like this /home/owner/Desktop/Screenshot.png | 04:21 |
| extraclassic | Guest88134: (2) go to Settings -> Repositories -> Other Software | 04:21 |
| fedy | joulez i dont know u might be right | 04:21 |
| joulez | fedy: try #grub | 04:21 |
| Zimopik | @kroq @Guest Yeah xD btw, using sudo apt-get update should update all of your packages to latest adn greatest in default repo | 04:21 |
| Arodnap | ola povao | 04:21 |
| bazhang | extraclassic, he has the partner enabled | 04:21 |
| Guest88134 | Ok..umm | 04:22 |
| Arodnap | alguem ai utiliza o iptables? | 04:22 |
| Guest88134 | I don't see it | 04:22 |
| sd | Zimopik i had the same problem a while back and i wish i could remember what i did, but it was a long time ago like in ubuntu 8.04 or something like that found answer in the forums dont remember where :( | 04:22 |
| fedy | okay I check it out ty u Joulez | 04:22 |
| joulez | fedy: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=7353 | 04:22 |
| bazhang | Guest88134, did you update the sources.list? | 04:22 |
| Guest88134 | Yes | 04:22 |
| kroq-gar78 | Guest88134: don't see what? I'm talking about terminal commands | 04:22 |
| Zimopik | @sd It's fine xD I'll look later, someones got to have found a solution ;) | 04:22 |
| bazhang | Guest88134, then search for sun-java6 in the package manager | 04:22 |
| Zimopik | @Guest yep. Go to applications->accesories->terminal | 04:22 |
| Zimopik | @Guest and then go and type in sudo apt-get install update | 04:23 |
| bazhang | kroq-gar78, thats not the correct package | 04:23 |
| kroq-gar78 | bazhang: yes it is, for openjdk it is | 04:23 |
| bazhang | kroq-gar78, he wants the sun-java6 plugins | 04:23 |
| kroq-gar78 | bazhang: oh :O | 04:23 |
| Guest88134 | Umm | 04:23 |
| Zimopik | Ohhhh xD I feel dumb | 04:23 |
| Guest88134 | I'm not understanding | 04:23 |
| Guest88134 | I just need to update java for minecraft | 04:24 |
| Zimopik | Then do this | 04:24 |
| Guest88134 | And it's lagging because its outdated | 04:24 |
| Zimopik | @Guest open up the software center, type in icedtea | 04:24 |
| Zimopik | and install that | 04:24 |
| imperfect- | Anyone seen screen just suddeenly stop accept ctrl- commands | 04:24 |
| Guest88134 | Ok | 04:24 |
| imperfect- | i can't get like ctrl-a-d,k,n anything to work | 04:24 |
| imperfect- | all of the sudden | 04:24 |
| imperfect- | no idea why | 04:24 |
| imperfect- | It's driving me nuts | 04:24 |
| Guest88134 | I already have it | 04:25 |
| kroq-gar78 | maybe Guest needs sun java? | 04:25 |
| Zimopik | @Guest then you should be up to date... OpenJDK 6 is what you need. I have that and Minecraft is running fine for me xD | 04:25 |
| html-inprogress | whats the commandline for installing flash | 04:25 |
| kroq-gar78 | Guest88134: "sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin" | 04:25 |
| html-inprogress | thanks | 04:26 |
| kroq-gar78 | html-inprogress: "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras" should do it... | 04:26 |
| Guest88134 | Ok... | 04:26 |
| rww | html-inprogress: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 04:26 |
| Guest88134 | I'll try running it again | 04:26 |
| rww | kroq-gar78: ubuntu-restricted-extras installs a significant amount of unrelated other stuff, and is not a good recommendation for people asking for specific things | 04:27 |
| kroq-gar78 | rww: oops ur right. thats just what I usually do :/ | 04:27 |
| html-inprogress | rww, thats for Guest88134 | 04:28 |
| rww | html-inprogress: what is? | 04:28 |
| === Kasjopaja23111 is now known as Kasjopaja | ||
| kroq-gar78 | html-inprogress: not really (well i guess it can be for you AND Guest*) | 04:28 |
| html-inprogress | the command line you just gave me | 04:29 |
| bazhang | html-inprogress, you wanted to install flash, its for you | 04:29 |
| === Kasjopaja is now known as Guest81797 | ||
| Guest88134 | Ok | 04:29 |
| ball | How can I ask Ubuntu for the cpu or system temperature? | 04:29 |
| Guest88134 | Nothing changed | 04:29 |
| rww | !lm-sensors | ball | 04:29 |
| ubottu | ball: To access CPU temperature sensors and detect fan speeds, install the lm-sensors package. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto for installation and usage instructions. | 04:29 |
| bazhang | !sensors | ball | 04:29 |
| ball | Thanks | 04:29 |
| Guest88134 | Can i please get someone to show me in vnc? | 04:29 |
| Guest88134 | I don't understand any of what your saying | 04:29 |
| rww | Guest88134: for what it's worth, it's rather likely that Minecraft is lagging because Minecraft does not run as well on Linux on most hardware as it does on Windows. | 04:29 |
| html-inprogress | bazhang, no, i just dont know by heart the commandline for flash | 04:30 |
| rww | Guest88134: regardless of java version and creator | 04:30 |
| kroq-gar78 | rww: hey that's what I was going to say :P | 04:30 |
| MathiasRodriguez | Hey | 04:30 |
| Guest88134 | rww, No I had minecraft run at 100 fps on this computer before on linux | 04:30 |
| Wally | Anyone got any experience with Setting up Ubuntu to host a 3G internet connection then route it out through an Airport Express? | 04:30 |
| Guest88134 | Then I formated my hard drive and re-installed in linux | 04:30 |
| Guest88134 | And now I need to update java | 04:31 |
| Zimopik | @rww is prolly right. Last linux set up I had when i was dabbling with linux didn't run minecraft very well xD | 04:31 |
| html-inprogress | Guest88134, what os and version ,,, ? and wine ? | 04:31 |
| MathiasRodriguez | GNOME or XFSC? | 04:31 |
| Guest88134 | I'm not using wine | 04:31 |
| Wally | Should it be as simple as " Navigating to the tab titled "IPv4 Settings" and changing the Method to "Shared to other computers" | 04:31 |
| kroq-gar78 | MathiasRodriguez: you mean XFCE? | 04:31 |
| Guest88134 | Linux Ubuntu 11.0.4 | 04:31 |
| MathiasRodriguez | Yeah, typo | 04:31 |
| kroq-gar78 | :) | 04:31 |
| rww | Guest88134: Did you upgrade Java on your previous installation? | 04:32 |
| Guest88134 | Yes, But I forgot how | 04:32 |
| rww | Guest88134: because the version of Java that's in the repositories is the version supported by us. If you're using or trying to use some other version, you're on your own. | 04:32 |
| Guest88134 | Hmm | 04:33 |
| Guest88134 | I don't know how I did it last time | 04:33 |

| cliff | at least I think kroq-gar78 | 04:34 |
| kroq-gar78 | kroq-gar78: oh sry I only know NVidia (unless the config programs are the same....) | 04:34 |
| Guest88134 | Ok | 04:35 |

| Guest88134 | I need version 22 | 04:35 |
| cliff | kroq-gar78 is there a way in compiz config? | 04:35 |
| Guest88134 | How do I achieve this? | 04:35 |
| kroq-gar78 | cliff: do you have proprietary drivers or what? if you do, go to the add hardware program and check (it says there) | 04:35 |
| MathiasRodriguez | Good Day! | 04:35 |
| extraclassic | Guest88134: I'll tell you every step if you listen carefully | 04:36 |
| kroq-gar78 | cliff: it's under System->Add Hardware (or something similar) | 04:36 |
| Guest88134 | Ok... | 04:36 |
| MathiasRodriguez | Guest88134: What are you trying to accomplish? | 04:36 |
| Guest88134 | Update java | 04:36 |
| Guest88134 | That's all. | 04:36 |
| extraclassic | Guest88134: if you have openjdk, uninstall it | 04:36 |
| Guest88134 | Nothing more. | 04:36 |
| rww | Guest88134: There is no Java version 22, and as I just told you, the version that's in the repositories (that you apparently already have) is _the only one we support_. | 04:36 |
| Guest88134 | How? | 04:36 |
| kroq-gar78 | MathiasRodriguez: he wants it cuz Minecraft runs REALLY slow (according to him) | 04:36 |
| rww | which means if you want support with another one, go elsewhere. | 04:36 |
| extraclassic | Guest88134: open Synaptic | 04:37 |
| kroq-gar78 | rww: i think he means v6 update 22 | 04:37 |
| MathiasRodriguez | Ah, I see | 04:37 |
| Guest88134 | Yeah, Thats it I think | 04:37 |

| yudi12 | how to dual boot win 7 and ubuntu with grub legacy, both are on different HDDs, I am guessing I need to make the ubuntu HDD primary in the BIOS and then run grub-update. Will this pick up | 04:37 |
| Guest88134 | Ok I've opened it up | 04:38 |
| kroq-gar78 | cliff: or not... drivers maybe? type "drivers" in the dash | 04:38 |
| rww | kroq-gar78: considering that the supported version of sun-java6-jre for natty is 6.24... | 04:38 |
| extraclassic | Guest88134: search for openjdk and see if it's marked green for installed | 04:38 |
| cliff | kroq-gar78: under additional drivers it says I'm not using proprietary drivers | 04:38 |
| kroq-gar78 | rww: isn't 10.10 or 10.04 u22? | 04:38 |
| rww | kroq-gar78: they said they're on 11.04 | 04:39 |
| kroq-gar78 | cliff: then i can't help (sorry). I guess you can play around with compiz config | 04:39 |
| rww | 6.24 to 6.22 is not an upgrade either way | 04:39 |
| kroq-gar78 | rww: oops didn't catche that :( | 04:39 |
| Guest88134 | Yes it's installed | 04:39 |
| cliff | Why is it enabled by default that you can have one window span multiple viewports? | 04:39 |
| extraclassic | Guest88134: right click it and mark for removal, then click apply | 04:40 |
| rww | Guest88134: I think I've been more than clear at this point. Your Java version is not affecting your Minecraft performance. We only have one supported version of Sun Java. If you're not happy with this version, please use another venue to change that. | 04:40 |
| Nolok | how do I know which desktop environment am I running ? | 04:40 |
| kroq-gar78 | cliff: if you don't have compiz config already, do "sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager" in the commandline | 04:40 |
| kroq-gar78 | cliff: do you want a window to span multpile or no? | 04:40 |
| Nolok | I was running Gnome, today when I booted the computer, the looks have changed :S | 04:40 |
| kroq-gar78 | Nolok: what color? COULD provide a clue... | 04:40 |
| Nolok | it was black theme before, very nice | 04:40 |
| mahir256 | alesan: go to a terminal and type apt-get thunderbird | 04:40 |
| Nolok | now it is plain old gnome | 04:41 |
| Nolok | like windows 98 | 04:41 |
| Nolok | what the hell | 04:41 |
| kroq-gar78 | Nolok: you're running GNOME-classic | 04:41 |
| DamnSoGooD | is there an app or function that restores my system from an earlier time? | 04:41 |
| kroq-gar78 | Nolok: AKA Gnome 2 | 04:41 |
| alesan | mahir256, I already have thunderbird, but it's version 3.x | 04:41 |
| Guest88134 | Ok now what? | 04:41 |
| cliff | kroq-gar78: I do not. Sometimes I'll drag a window around and it will accidentally be on another workspace so when I switch to the new workspace there will be like a tenth of a window hanging over on the screen and I'll have to change back to the other workspace and resize it. It's annoying. | 04:41 |
| Nolok | kroq-gar78: can I confirm that from the terminal with some command ? also how do I change now ? | 04:41 |
| rww | kroq-gar78: no, they're running without theming applied, probably because of a gnome-settings-daemon issue. All supported versions of Ubuntu use GNOME 2. | 04:41 |
| mahir256 | alesan: then apt-get update thunderbird | 04:41 |
| extraclassic | Guest88134: go to Settings -> Repositories and click the tab that says Other Software | 04:42 |
| rsv | i want to install a execuatable in 10.10 and it checks if the linux version is 10.04. how to fool the application that it is running on 10.04 and not on 10.10 | 04:42 |
| kroq-gar78 | rww: i think you misunderstood me. he asked what environment he was running (AFAIK NOT trying to diagnose a problem | 04:42 |
| kroq-gar78 | cliff: lemme open ccsm | 04:42 |
| alesan | mahir256, are you sure that command is correct? | 04:42 |
| mahir256 | rsv: what executable are you trying to install? | 04:42 |
| nutcase068 | just wanna know something.... can i replace a ubuntu install from 1 pc to a next would it work? | 04:42 |
| rsv | some properity installer | 04:42 |
| kroq-gar78 | mahir: i think you mean "sudo apt-get install thunderbird" | 04:43 |
| alesan | mahir256, are you sure thunderbird 5 is available for ubuntu 11.04? | 04:43 |
| Guest88134 | Ok I have | 04:43 |
| kroq-gar78 | mahir: not update | 04:43 |
| kroq-gar78 | alesan: it is through the thunderbird ppa | 04:43 |
| alesan | kroq-gar78, ok so what do I need to do? what is ppa? | 04:43 |
| extraclassic | Guest88134: look at the entries and there's one that will end in partner and you have to make sure it's checked | 04:43 |
| mahir256 | kroq-gar78: oh yeah, thanks for correcting | 04:43 |
| Nolok | kroq-gar78: can I confirm that from the terminal with some command ? also how do I change now ? | 04:43 |

| magicalchamp | so you guys like the new ubuntu ? | 05:04 |
| Gryllida | magicalchamp, indeed | 05:05 |
| dr_willis | unity fails to work properly for me. | 05:05 |
| magicalchamp | ubuntu has came a long way.. | 05:05 |
| kroq-gar78 | i think that's a topic for #ubuntu-offtopic, but this channel is SSOOOOOOOO quiet... | 05:05 |
| dr_willis | 'going boldly where no os has gone befor' | 05:05 |
| magicalchamp | yeah unity can give some problems, but most of the time it behaves. | 05:05 |
| kroq-gar78 | +1 | 05:05 |
| magicalchamp | oh this is support lol | 05:06 |
| magicalchamp | sorry | 05:06 |
| kroq-gar78 | lol | 05:06 |
| dr_willis | unity is a work in progress. i had it tweaked where i could use it. but then had icon/menu curruption evrry time i opened a browser. not sure why | 05:06 |
| magicalchamp | unity 2d is nice | 05:06 |
| villa | I cannot surf any website, anyone who can tell me what is probably reason? | 05:07 |
| dr_willis | anyone else ever see that issue? i open chrome, or firefox, select browser, web surf a bit. mouse out. and the panel icone go all currupted | 05:07 |
| magicalchamp | you have not given you life to the penguin , I sense some windows love among you :P | 05:07 |
| dr_willis | villa: first guess - dns server | 05:08 |
| kroq-gar78 | magicalchamp: XDDDDD | 05:08 |
| kroq-gar78 | villia: +1 dns server | 05:08 |
| magicalchamp | sorry , guys it's late here.. but anyway.. no sorry bro don't know what you are talking about? | 05:08 |
| dr_willis | villa: second guess proxy settings | 05:08 |
| kroq-gar78 | but, if he didn't do that, then how would he be here? | 05:08 |
| kroq-gar78 | villa: are you on a different computer than the one that cyou can't browse on? | 05:09 |
| magicalchamp | drivers? you install them? proprietary or open source?? | 05:09 |
| dr_willis | kroq-gar78: ive seen irc clients work when browsers dont. could be they cache the ip. | 05:09 |
| magicalchamp | video* | 05:09 |
| villa | dns server is right, so what should the proxy be set? | 05:09 |
| kroq-gar78 | dr_willis: learn something everyday, eh? :) | 05:09 |

| magicalchamp | do it! | 05:16 |
| orwells-iphone | I haven't tried 11.04 yet | 05:16 |
| kroq-gar78 | villa: wild guess - router prob? other comps work? | 05:16 |
| bazhang | magicalchamp, this is not the chat channel. #ubuntu-offtopic for that | 05:16 |
| kroq-gar78 | DizzyLizzy: +1 | 05:16 |
| kroq-gar78 | oops :P | 05:16 |
| TrevInc | DizzyLizzy: All your wildest dreams will come true. And if they don't we'd be glad to help you with any support issues. | 05:16 |
| DizzyLizzy | I'm hesitant for two reasons: 1, all of my numerous settings that I'd have to transfer manually, and 2, all of the programs I have installed :P | 05:17 |
| villa | thedevil, no toolkit.networkmanger.disable in about:config | 05:17 |
| rww | unless you're on Debian 6, in which case #debian will be glad to consider helping you with any support issues | 05:17 |
| DizzyLizzy | I'm so happy Ubuntu 11.04 has Firefox 4! I've been using like 3.6.7 or something for AAAAGES | 05:17 |
| thedevil | villa: create one | 05:17 |
| DizzyLizzy | and LibreOffice instead of OpenOffice.org! | 05:17 |

| kevin_ | hey all. for some reason, any applications that use pulseaudio don't seem to sync right, ie they skip every 1.5-3 mins. i've tried totem, vlc, and banshee for AVI video+audio streams, and i have tried mplayer for AVI streams with no video output (mplayer -vo null) and they all skip. when i end pulseaudio and use alsa, all is well. any ideas? | 05:24 |
| yang38125 | hi | 05:24 |
| fennng | bazhang: works, thank you | 05:24 |
| thedevil | fennng: there's also the whereis command and which command--there are a lot of apps in bin | 05:24 |
| rww | mateo: #ubuntu supports Ubuntu and its official derivatives. Crunchbang isn't an official Ubuntu derivative (or, in fact, a derivative of Ubuntu at all), so it's not supported here. Try #crunchbang. | 05:25 |
| thedevil | villa: what was the talk about ip 4 and 6, why did you bring that up | 05:25 |
| fennng | thedevil: thx, dpkg -l gives too much. I just forgot the name of mp3 player | 05:25 |
| villa | Is it a problem? | 05:26 |
| thedevil | fennng: which is usally definitive for that sort of scenerio but whereis is more informative | 05:26 |
| fennng | thedevil: thx, I've found it, moc | 05:28 |
| DizzyLizzy | moc? | 05:28 |
| DizzyLizzy | mpd | 05:28 |
| fennng | DizzyLizzy: it's name is moc, but the command for running it is mocp | 05:29 |
| DizzyLizzy | I know about mocp, I used it briefly when I ran Arch | 05:29 |

| villa | static | 05:31 |

| h1gh | abhijain: I viewed in LibreOffice and wvText and got jibberish and "lwpuk" which when Googling shows same kind of gibberish. So, yes likely need some speecial font or character set. | 05:41 |
| wildbat | dthacker: yes you can ~ but livecd most like using your swap now you have to umount/swapoff it | 05:42 |
| dthacker | wildbat: I picked the "load into memory" option, will it still be a problem? | 05:43 |
| abhijain | h1gh: which type of fonts | 05:43 |
| wildbat | dthacker: if it isn't mounted it will be fine | 05:44 |
| dthacker | wildbat: dv -v in the consol shows "no file systems processed" so I think it's ok. | 05:45 |
| h1gh | abhijain: got me ... maybe ask the person who wrote the doc? | 05:45 |
| * dthacker holds breath and plunges ahead | 05:45 | |
| h1gh | abhijain: if you google "lwpuk" you will see many documents as funky as yours, all from India. So perhaps some hindi or tamil character set or font? | 05:47 |

| wrekt | wildbat, thnx. no luck though. | 05:56 |
| wildbat | wrekt: what's wrong? | 05:57 |
| Karen_m | dr_willis, they moved it to somewhere else... wherever ubuntu saves all the passwords is where they are listed now | 05:57 |
| wrekt | wildbat, dmesg seems to refer to events since the startup. im trying to figure out why apropos of nothing everything froze, losing me something i was working on. | 05:57 |

| dr_willis | NickNakz: depends on your needs | 05:59 |
| slacker- | irssi | 05:59 |
| jeremy1313 | I cant get vuze to stay open and java wont update, can I get some help? | 05:59 |
| dr_willis | most can do the basics fine | 05:59 |
| adamkex | NickNakz: xchat if you want a graphical one | 05:59 |
| h1gh | !best | NickNakz | 05:59 |
| ubottu | NickNakz: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 05:59 |
| wildbat | wrekt: syslog then?? | 05:59 |
| Karen_m | yes, how do i pull up the gnome keyring? | 05:59 |
| NickNakz | started with xchat... but am newbie and heard irssi is better | 05:59 |
| dr_willis | jeremy1313: run from terminal look for error messages | 05:59 |
| jeremy1313 | ok | 05:59 |
| dr_willis | Karen_m: run 'seahorse' is one way to get to it | 06:00 |
| wildbat | NickNakz: irssi is cli based irc client ~ you mostly don't want it ~ | 06:00 |
| h1gh | NickNakz: I like Irssi, but have been enjoying Smuxi lately... | 06:00 |
| dr_willis | irssi is radically different then irssi in design | 06:00 |
| NickNakz | irssi easy with tor too? | 06:01 |
| adamkex | NickNakz: it doesn't really matter what you use, if you want to use an irc in the terminal use irssi or weechat | 06:01 |
| dr_willis | cli based = irssi or weechat | 06:01 |
| jeremy1313 | dr_willis this is the pastebin: http://pastebin.com/tADiZZWF | 06:01 |
| dr_willis | i dont see much need to use tor with irc. many servers block tor | 06:01 |
| NickNakz | from Ubuntu is the app install version of irssi updated... or better to do from the command? | 06:01 |
| adamkex | NickNakz: i think xchat is easier to configure if you want to use tor, why do you want to use tor anyways, it is banned from many irc networks | 06:01 |
| wrekt | wildbat, yea it just lists normal messages. thought id be able to figure out if my webcam was having some problems with pulseaudio but nothing concrete | 06:01 |

| dr_willis | jeremy1313: icedtea segfaulting. thats odd. you could try the sun/oracle java from the partners repo. | 06:03 |

| dohomi | where do i find it? | 06:21 |
| almoxarife | dohomi: sys > admin > log view | 06:22 |
| dohomi | where do i have to start? | 06:22 |
| almoxarife | dohomi: start with 'system.log' ? | 06:23 |
| madmn | i have a linksys WRT160N and want to port forward to i can ssh to my box anyone know how to do that | 06:23 |
| dohomi | i have System Log Viewer | 06:24 |
| dohomi | in syslog | 06:24 |
| Matic`Makovec | madmn, well I suggest you forward your ports to local IP then...but this isn't really an ubuntu question right here so I can't be sure on how to do that on wt160n | 06:24 |
| phper_ | I installed php in ubuntu | 06:24 |
| phper_ | where can I find its folder? I need to change php.ini | 06:24 |

| ubottu | madmn: For instructions on how to set up port-forwarding (for games, torrents, webservers) see http://portforward.com - also see !firewall | 06:25 |
| madmn | i am using a ubuntu box | 06:25 |
| almoxarife | madmn: you want to open the port into the machine being ssh'ed | 06:25 |
| dohomi | /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini | 06:25 |
| madmn | and i want to ssh from another computer | 06:25 |
| phper_ | dohomi: many thanks | 06:25 |
| dohomi | i dont see anything strange in the syslog | 06:26 |
| madmn | that site is a paid site ubottu | 06:26 |
| rww | madmn: no it isn't, it's just problematically full of ads | 06:27 |
| madmn | is there another way i can get help with how to setup what i want then ? | 06:28 |
| dohomi | are there special keys i can use if the desktop freezes? | 06:28 |
| engammalsko | Would it be bad to make a small ntfs partition for music which I can access for both ubuntu and windows? | 06:28 |
| wildbat | madmn : pay me to do it for you XD ! LOL~j/k | 06:29 |
| bullgard4 | engammalsko No. | 06:29 |
| almoxarife | madmn: the router needs to know what port to open and what internal ip | 06:29 |
| Matic`Makovec | madmn, it's really easy | 06:29 |
| engammalsko | bullgard4: so ubuntu will handle ntfs pretty well then? | 06:29 |
| wildbat | engammalsko: not really ~ better then FAT32 or ext? and have wins run the driver | 06:29 |
| kpolinar | engammalsko: No, that's how you do it. :) | 06:30 |
| bullgard4 | engammalsko No. Not to be recommended. Use FAT32. | 06:30 |
| Matic`Makovec | As far as I remember Linksys's have port forwarding section | 06:30 |
| dohomi | if you want to use ntfs | 06:30 |
| Matic`Makovec | There you specify outer port, LAN IP and port and that's it | 06:30 |
| almoxarife | Matic`Makovec: they do, port forwarding and trigger | 06:30 |
| Matic`Makovec | Well then, madmn ! | 06:30 |
| dohomi | then use this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009 | 06:30 |
| engammalsko | What is fat32 better then ntfs? : ) | 06:31 |
| Matic`Makovec | engammalsko, is that anywhere close to serious question? | 06:31 |
| anujwalia | Hey um working on Twitter connectivity on PhoneGap for android , found some OAuth Authentication i need to bypass | 06:31 |
| anujwalia | Any idea How to Proceed further ? | 06:31 |

| phper_ | I installed php5 on ubuntu, but the php.ini file doesn't have any extensions text in it, what can I do about it? | 06:32 |
| engammalsko | Matic`Makovec: Yes, Someone told me that I should use fat32 instead of ntfs, does that mean that fat32 is better? | 06:32 |
| dohomi | phper_ you have to enable the modules | 06:32 |
| Matic`Makovec | engammalsko, fat32 is an ancient NT filesystem. It is deprecated and should not be used in any case whatsoever, especially not on Linux | 06:32 |
| dohomi | apache2 is differnet | 06:32 |
| wildbat | engammalsko: nope ~fat32 is old | 06:32 |
| phper_ | dohomi: how? I have to write them one by one? there isn't the text of the extensions in the php.ini file | 06:33 |
| dr_willis | fat32 has many limitations | 06:33 |
| === mirco_ is now known as mirco | ||
| dohomi | how to see all enabled modules: sudo apache2ctl -l | 06:33 |
| engammalsko | Okay, good then :D I thougjt it was old, that's why I've never used it (or well, maybe on a old computer) | 06:33 |
| Loshki | engammalsko: ntfs is a good solution for your case. Create it on windows if you have a choice.... | 06:34 |
| dr_willis | small usb flash drives are ok for fat. :) | 06:34 |
| Matic`Makovec | dohomi, a2dismod for example | 06:34 |
| dohomi | or a2enmod for enable | 06:34 |
| Matic`Makovec | It lists all the modules currently enabled, if you don't want to disable any, just ctrl+c | 06:34 |
| Matic`Makovec | dohomi, well a2enmod lists _all_ modules, I don't think a2dismod does or does it? | 06:35 |
| geirha | engammalsko: If you have Windows on the computer, you can use NTFS on a shared partition. You need Windows in case you need to check and fix an NTFS filesystem; linux can't do that (yet). | 06:35 |
| phper_ | Matic`Makovec: couldn't find apache2ctl command | 06:35 |
| bullgard4 | What is the directory /var/log/unattended-upgrades for? (Mine is empty.) | 06:35 |
| dohomi | not sure but phper_ wanted to know... | 06:35 |
| Matic`Makovec | phper_, you installed apache2 through the aptitude? | 06:35 |
| engammalsko | geirha: but linux can open and edit files? And chang ethe partition, right? | 06:36 |
| Matic`Makovec | engammalsko, on ntfs it can | 06:36 |
| pilsbury | Does anyone know why my mic works after booting up every time but when i talk in teamspeak for like 3-4 minutes my mic randomly produces no input? | 06:36 |

| aurilliance | My ubuntu 11.04 install has been sporadically grinding to a halt due to masive hard-drive activity over the past 2 days, I haven't noticed the problem before this. Is there some way I can "watch" the CPU activity, and if it suddenly spikes, get an alert of the offending process? Every time I try dropping to TTY1 and checking "sudo top" the activity dies down before the TTY loads. | 06:37 |
| Loshki | engammalsko: linux can read and write ntfs files quite well apparently. I wouldn't rely it to do much else.. | 06:37 |
| bullgard4 | pilsbury: Difficult to say because Teamspeak is proprietary software. | 06:37 |
| dohomi | aurilliance | 06:37 |
| dohomi | there is a tool for system monitor | 06:37 |

| phper_ | dohomi: with a command | 06:45 |
| dohomi | first apache2 then php5 ? | 06:45 |
| geirha | engammalsko: Odd. Do you see it if you open a terminal and run ''sudo fdisk -l'' too? | 06:45 |
| phper_ | dohomi: no, I installed just php5 | 06:45 |
| phper_ | dohomi: I think with apt-get | 06:45 |
| dohomi | php5 without apache makes no sense... | 06:45 |
| Matic`Makovec | phper_, that's not an issue really | 06:45 |
| Matic`Makovec | dohomi, why not? | 06:45 |
| Matic`Makovec | php has a CLI as well | 06:45 |
| Matic`Makovec | Someone _might_ use that too | 06:45 |
| dohomi | sure if you want it that way | 06:46 |
| phper_ | Matic`Makovec: so, I just installed the apache/php package without uninstalling php5? | 06:46 |
| Matic`Makovec | May be true that neither I nor you cans ee the real value of that but hey | 06:46 |
| phper_ | Matic`Makovec: so, I just install the apache/php package without uninstalling php5? | 06:46 |
| Matic`Makovec | phper_, just aptitude install apache2 | 06:46 |
| Matic`Makovec | And aptitutde search apache2 |grep php | 06:46 |
| Matic`Makovec | Install the module if it isn't already | 06:46 |

I can't get to it from XP or Windows7 machine. It says I do not have permission. But according the guide I should not need to enter a password. Any assistance would be great. | 07:11 |
| dresden | BTW i can see the folder but can't enter it. | 07:12 |
| dr_willis | dresden: its a ntfs filesystem? or ext4 | 07:12 |
| dresden | ntfs | 07:13 |
| n00bRX | Thanks Doc .. KIT | 07:13 |
| dresden | I can make it whatever it is as long as windows can read it. | 07:13 |
| dr_willis | cant see the files locally either? | 07:13 |
| dresden | As long as i open it by going to it by means of /media/.... if i try to go to it by means of the network from the same system i can't. | 07:13 |
| dr_willis | its most likely mounted with the wrong permissions. but somthing seems weird you can access it locally. | 07:15 |
| dresden | i let the system mount it on its own. How would i go about mounting with the right permissions? | 07:15 |
| dr_willis | dresden: you could try the ntfs-config tool to enable more open permissions on it | 07:15 |
| dresden | ok let me search for that tool. | 07:16 |
| dr_willis | or make a fstab entry using ntfs-3g | 07:16 |
| dr_willis | you most likely want it shared at boot time. so fstab way is best | 07:16 |
| dr_willis | !ntfs-3g | 07:17 |
| ubottu | ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 07:17 |

| Senjai | dr_willis, do you know how to report a missing dependency for apt-get | 07:21 |

| dr_willis | windows is used to getting yelled at. its like a cat and ignores you.. linux is shy like a puppy... :) | 07:25 |

| babu | when i'm using tomcat on eclipse,it crashes..when i restart and try to run,it shows error that some service are already running in 8080... | 07:25 |
| babu | how to stop that | 07:26 |
| rabbit1 | dr_willis: yes, works on windows | 07:26 |
| pilsbury | droidman101: sorry i thought you were trying to troll me.. this is the only problem i've had with this installation and its making me very stressed. I'm sorry again | 07:26 |
| dr_willis | rabbit1: tried connecting wireless to other devices. it could be a wireless driver bug | 07:26 |
| dimas_ | what do i have to do to have bashee be able to read the metedata of my cd? | 07:26 |
| sup | i want to limit users bandwidth based on the contents they download. if they download large file consuming bandwith (like video or iso files) then the bandwidth allocated to that download will be limited. HOwto do that<? | 07:26 |

| kierge | get out | 07:27 |
| rabbit1 | dr_willis: i got laptop and also a pc, both linux it doesn't connect... windows (in pc) works well | 07:27 |
| pilsbury | droidman101: a reboot | 07:27 |
| droidman101 | pilsbury: hmmm....interesting, might be the driver or something | 07:27 |
| droidman101 | which microphone is it? | 07:28 |
| pilsbury | droidman101: turtlebeach earforce x11 headset | 07:28 |
| dr_willis | rabbit1: sounds like a wireless driver bug. but i have no idea where to start troubleshooting. | 07:28 |
| dresden | dr_willis, i installed the ntfs-config tool but when i try to run it per the documentation i get [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/etc/hal/fdi/policy' | 07:28 |
| pilsbury | droidman101: and btw.. i tried a new driver.. didnt end well.. ill just say i had to reinstall ubuntu xD | 07:29 |
| rabbit1 | dr_willis: ok, wondering... | 07:29 |
| droidman101 | pilsbury: i know the feeling | 07:29 |
| pilsbury | droidman101: mostly cuz of me messing up the installation though | 07:29 |
| dr_willis | dresden: what ubuntu version anyway? | 07:30 |
| droidman101 | pilsbury: i have no clue where to begin with this | 07:31 |
| droidman101 | it works perfectly fine on windows, correct? | 07:31 |
| dresden | dr_willis, 11.04 | 07:31 |
| pilsbury | droidman101: thats right on my windows partition theres no problem like that at all | 07:32 |
| dresden | dr_willis, should i be on a different version? | 07:32 |
| phper_ | Hello! | 07:32 |
| phper_ | I used sudo apt-get php5 and installed php5 | 07:32 |
| droidman101 | pilsbury: does the microphone officially support linux or is the driver a third party driver? | 07:33 |
| phper_ | now, how do I install php extensions? with e.g. sudo apt-get php5-php_mysql_libmysql ? | 07:33 |
| pilsbury | i believe it's third party | 07:33 |
| pilsbury | droidman101: i believe it's third party | 07:33 |
| droidman101 | pilsbury: i would try there then, i have no clue whatsoever about what the problem could be | 07:34 |
| phper_ | now, how do I install php extensions? with e.g. sudo apt-get php5-php_mysql_libmysql ? | 07:34 |
| droidman101 | except for driver issues | 07:34 |
| pilsbury | droidman101: thanks | 07:34 |

| pilsbury | abuanoname: unity sucks, run classic, then you can actually USE compiz | 07:50 |
| dr_willis | wrong person pilsbury | 07:51 |
| abuanoname | pilsbury, what you mean, am not need cimpiz | 07:51 |
| dr_willis | ;) | 07:51 |
| pilsbury | dohomi: unity sucks, run classic, then you can actually USE compiz (ty willis) | 07:52 |
| dr_willis | use icewm! be cool . | 07:53 |
| cousin_mario | hello | 07:53 |
| cousin_mario | what is the best unity tweaking tool? | 07:53 |
| cousin_mario | confity? | 07:54 |
| pilsbury | cousin_mario: unity sucks, use classic and install compiz... the effects are better and unity does eff up your system in the meantime | 07:55 |
| dohomi | crap...froze again | 07:55 |
| pilsbury | dohomi: that's because you are using unity | 07:55 |
| pilsbury | dohomi: the windows freeze bug.. even if u close or kill it the window is stuck on your screen till reboot | 07:56 |
| dohomi | i tried classic, but then i cant use skype | 07:56 |
| pilsbury | dohomi: thank your unity for that one too | 07:56 |
| pilsbury | dohomi: sure you can | 07:56 |
| dohomi | no man, i tried it over 2 weeks | 07:56 |
| oCean | pilsbury: enough with the unity bashing | 07:56 |
| pilsbury | dohomi: what was the issue with skype in classic? | 07:56 |
| cousin_mario | pilsbury: classic won't last forever, so I'm looking into how to make unity somewhat more acceptable | 07:56 |
| dohomi | in classic mode the skype doesnt work after 20 min | 07:56 |
| pilsbury | dohomi: do you get an error message? | 07:57 |
| droidman101 | not like skype will be updated for long... | 07:57 |
| dohomi | in unity i dont have problems... im sitting in indonesia and not sure about the skype problem, but i dont have it in unity, in classic skype kinda freeze | 07:57 |
| dohomi | i use my laptop as an apache webserver, and after 5 h. the desktop freezes. and then it happens more often, without any reason. i only use little programs for webdeveloping at the moment | 07:58 |
| jair | I have a quick question, I have a usb drive (20GB) size and I want to configure to install ubuntu 11.04 64bit from it | 07:58 |
| pilsbury | cousin_mario: i bet there will always be a classic version until unity doesn't conflict as much with your desktop, though. So until it's way more stable, there will be a classic version, and after it happens we wont need classic anymore | 07:59 |
| dohomi | how is it with unity 2d? | 07:59 |
| minimec | jair: What is your question then? | 07:59 |
| jair | when I follow the instructions to configure the use to be bootable I run the command "zcat boot.img.gz > /dev/sdb1" | 07:59 |
| dr_willis | jair: use a tool like unetbootin, or from pendrivelinux to put a live install on it.. then you can boot it and install from it | 08:00 |
| purplefool | is there a way to create a one-touch button to power the computer down using utility? in the classic version this was easy to create, but with utility i seem to be missing some basic knowledge...grrrr | 08:00 |
| jair | minimec: when I run that command the size of the filesystem in the usb drive become smaller and I can't add the full iso ubuntu etc... | 08:00 |
| dr_willis | jair: use the tools.. that command seems rather the old way of doing things | 08:00 |
| jair | dr_willis: what do you mean? | 08:01 |
| jair | dr_willis: what will be the simple way to do it? | 08:01 |
| dr_willis | jair: use unetbootin, or other tools. | 08:01 |
| dohomi | i have the freeze probs only if im in my dockingstation and use 2 external monitors | 08:01 |
| jair | I will prefer other tools I don't have any windows machine in my house | 08:02 |
| dr_willis | jair: seen the pendrivelinux website for a dozen tools to automate it | 08:02 |
| jair | dr_willis: what will be the other tools? | 08:02 |
| jair | dr_willis: let me check | 08:02 |
| dr_willis | ubuntu has its own usbdisk creator that can work | 08:02 |
| minimec | jair: There is the 'Startup Disk Creator' to create a bootable LiveCD-USB stick. | 08:03 |
| dr_willis | usbhd and flash work the same ;) | 08:03 |
| dr_willis | or should at least | 08:03 |
| dusf | i installed an automatic nvidia update today and there has been a regression in wine, can anyone tell me how to rollback the graphics driver please? | 08:05 |
| jair | guys, I am not a gui guy, I am trying to use the command line interface (bash) and I have the isos and the access to the vmlinuz etc... | 08:06 |
| dr_willis | !pin | 08:06 |
| ubottu | pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 08:06 |
| jair | I may be able to follow the debian instructions and accomplish the same... | 08:06 |
| dr_willis | jair: you can setup grub2 to boot an iso file also. all via cli. | 08:06 |
| dr_willis | look for ubuntu guides.. debian can be very diffrent | 08:07 |
| dr_willis | delicious.com/dr_willis has some grub2 guide links | 08:07 |
| purplefool | is there a way to create a one-touch button to power the computer down using utility? in the classic version this was easy to create, but with utility i seem to be missing some basic knowledge... | 08:07 |
| dr_willis | purplefool: should be doabale in several ways | 08:08 |
| minimec | dusf: Try to use synaptic to 'force' another version of the driver. You can then put that package on 'hold', or do it the 'pin' way, as dr_willis stated. | 08:08 |
| dr_willis | i ve seen 'desklets' that give you a power button. | 08:09 |
| jair | I can't believe it, the people in ubuntu does not know how to use bash and linus to create a usab bootable image!!!! | 08:09 |
| dr_willis | jair: i just said its doable. and gave referance to my bookmarks | 08:09 |
| jair | I will keep looking at google then or maybe follow the way Japan does it | 08:10 |
| jair | I mean debian not Japan, not too good at multitasking | 08:10 |
| minimec | jair: Yes we can. Google is your friend man ... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 08:11 |
| dr_willis | install grub to flash.. set up proper grub.cfg .. is the basics of it | 08:11 |
| dr_willis | delicious.com/dr_willis has some grub2 guide links on doing it | 08:11 |
| dr_willis | debian iso directions may or may not work. | 08:12 |
| dr_willis | pendrivelinux may have some bash scripts also... | 08:12 |
| dusf | minimec: i did not know dr_willis was directing that towards me | 08:14 |
| purplefool | dr_willis, i have googled this for several weeks thinking that i was not the only one who finds it annoying to have to navigate menus to shut down...where should i look for more info to this? | 08:14 |
| dr_willis | purplefool: you could make a shell script that does gksudo halt, or whatever. or 'desklets' package has a desktop widget for a nice button. or.. | 08:15 |
| dr_willis | i always use that classic-gnome-menu indicator-app ot cardio to get to the normal looking gnome menus and shut down that way | 08:16 |
| dr_willis | or set up where you can hit alt-ctrl-bs, then alt-ctrl-del real fast to shutdown.. old-school style ;) | 08:17 |
| dr_willis | there may be other ways. | 08:17 |
| dusf | dr_willis: minimec: it says it upgrade 'nvidia-current (270.41.19-0ubuntu1~xup~natty) to 275.09.07-0ubuntu1~natty~xup1' - but when i search synaptic for nvidia-current - it just shows the new version | 08:18 |
| dr_willis | i got 6 weeks uptime here - i rarely shutdown | 08:19 |
| === muellisoft is now known as Muelli | ||
| dr_willis | dusf: check the menus /properties. i had to downgrade once ages ago for a bug. | 08:19 |
| dr_willis | i dont recall where the menu item was at | 08:20 |
| minimec | dusf: Using the synaptic gui will probably be easier for you, if you are not familliar with apt on the console. You can first use the gui to install the preferred version of the driver, and 'pin' it in the /etc/apt/preferences file afterwards. | 08:20 |
| purplefool | dr_willis, ok, i am new at this and have not really successfully made a script...would love to, but haven't figured it out yet. looking for desklets atm though. thx for answer! | 08:20 |
| dr_willis | purplefool: 2 line script...... #!/bin/bash gksudo halt (or some command like that) | 08:21 |
| dr_willis | then set sudoers to not ask for password for 'halt' if you dont want to enter password | 08:22 |
| dusf | dr_willis: minimec; ty, using package > force version - it allows me to select version very close to what i had... but not the exact version | 08:22 |
| minimec | dusf: the older version of the package is probably still in /var/cache/apt/archives | 08:22 |
| dr_willis | hope you dont acciently run script when you dont mean it. :) | 08:22 |
| dr_willis | !shutdown | 08:23 |
| Dazzled | anyone know how to bypass the shutdown dialog on ubuntu? | 08:23 |
| Dazzled | eg when I push the switch, I want it to always turn off | 08:23 |
| zakwilson | sudo shutdown -h now | 08:23 |
| dr_willis | switch? you mean the power button | 08:24 |
| Dazzled | yeah | 08:24 |
| dr_willis | purplefool: you did realize the power button does that? ;) | 08:24 |
| dr_willis | on most pcs at least | 08:24 |
| d4redevil | hi @all | 08:25 |
| dr_willis | thats 5 ways to shutdown now.... or 6? | 08:25 |
| jair | minimec: do you understand what is happening on the process of creating the usb installer? | 08:25 |
| zakwilson | You could edit /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh | 08:25 |
| purplefool | dr_willis, lol! of course, just the syntax confuses me. | 08:25 |
| d4redevil | Good afternoon | 08:25 |
| dr_willis | jair: most install syslinux to the fat16/32 partition. make a syslinux.cfg and extract a few files to the flash drive | 08:26 |
| Dazzled | yeah, I followed a tutorial for a pre Natty ubuntu, seems the functionality isn't there anymore :/ | 08:26 |
| Dazzled | or not there yet | 08:26 |
| purplefool | dr_willis, ok, noob question, what program do i use to write the script? utility makes me insane with how to find things! | 08:27 |
| minimec | jair: Using the gui? stick is formatted to vfat (fat32), files are copied on the stick. There is a possibility to create a permanent data file as /home directory. Then MBR of the USB is created... | 08:27 |
| dr_willis | i thought the dialog counts down to auto shutdown on powerpress | 08:27 |
| zakwilson | Yep... that's where it is, pretty sure. I think you could just replace its entire contents with "shutdown -h now", but you might want to back it up first. | 08:27 |
| dr_willis | purplefool: any text editor | 08:28 |
| dr_willis | purplefool: gedit, vi, nano, | 08:28 |
| AzizLight | Hi everybody | 08:29 |
| dusf | minimec: can i access /var/cache/apt/archive through synaptic? | 08:29 |
| dr_willis | bbl | 08:29 |
| AzizLight | I'm on ubuntu server 11.04. when I type fdisk -l nothing appears, is there another way to take a look at the partitions please? | 08:30 |
| wildbat | AzizLight: sudo fdisk -l | 08:31 |
| KM0201 | AzizLight: try sudo | 08:31 |
| AzizLight | wildbat, KM0201 : ah thanks, that worked | 08:31 |
| KM0201 | never understood why fdisk required sudo, just to "view" the partitions... | 08:31 |
| minimec | dusf: No you can access it with a console 'cd /var/cache/apt/archive' and then 'sudo dpkg -i yourpackage.123.45.deb' or so... | 08:32 |
| prodigel | hi all. Is there a way to fast delete a large number of files? I'm trying rm -rf, but it takes very long, and the cpu load goes up during that. | 08:33 |
| KM0201 | prodigel: how many is a "very large number" | 08:35 |
| prodigel | thousands probably | 08:35 |
| dusf | minimec: dr_willis: ty. restarting to test | 08:35 |
| prodigel | KM0201, thousands probably | 08:35 |
| KM0201 | prodigel: can you just delete a directory, or do you need to delete a particular file type? | 08:35 |
| KM0201 | or can you delete all files in a particular directory? | 08:36 |
| zehra_28 | Can someone please help me : http://paste.ubuntu.com/639988/ | 08:36 |
| prodigel | KM0201, all of them. It's a web app folder which we need to clear from time to time. Since it take so long and increases the cpu load we're moving it to /tmp and recreating it. But now we have a new problem: we have to delete the /tmp moved dirs because we lack free space | 08:37 |
| KM0201 | hmm, just doesn't seem like rm should take that long. | 08:38 |
| KM0201 | even for 1000's. | 08:38 |
| KM0201 | prodigel: what command are you using to delete them? | 08:38 |
| prodigel | KM0201, rm -rf dir_name | 08:38 |
| prodigel | KM0201, with sudo (files are owned by the web-server) | 08:38 |
| KM0201 | prodigel: dunno, even w/ 1000's.. just doesn't seem it should take that long | 08:39 |
| prodigel | KM0201, I can tell you it takes minutes | 08:39 |
| KM0201 | prodigel: i believe you, i just don't see *why* it would take that long. | 08:39 |
| KM0201 | zehra_28: have you had previous versions of ubuntu on this machine, that didn't have this issue? | 08:40 |
| minimec | zehra_28: What kind of GPU do you have in that laptop? Can you do 'lspci | grep VGA' in a terminal and give us the results? | 08:40 |
| leagris | prodigel, what filesystem and device are you using? Is the free RAM enough so it does not swap as hell? | 08:40 |
| zehra_28 | KM0201: Yes i try. The same problem i faced with them too. | 08:40 |
| prodigel | KM0201, ubuntu/ext3 | 08:40 |
| prodigel | it's a virtual server, we can't do much about that | 08:40 |
| KM0201 | zehra_28: ok... so likely your fan is controlled by windows, and is not getting turned on in Ubuntu. | 08:40 |
| KM0201 | zehra_28: model laptop? | 08:41 |
| zehra_28 | minimec: ı have ATı HD 3850 . But i have not installed drivers for accelaration because they are make my laptop slower than now. ıtry it by formatting the pc 4-5 times. | 08:41 |
| zehra_28 | minimec: but i can watch with vlc the movies which i can not watch them even windows 7 :) | 08:42 |
| KM0201 | i dobut its the video driver... as most of those "just run".. however the new thing w/ laptops.. .well, not really new, is to let windows control fan speed on the CPU.. obviously, this causes an issue for Ubuntu. | 08:42 |
| zehra_28 | KM0201: no fan is working ofcourse :) but it is little bit slow than windows 7. | 08:42 |
| leagris | minimec hi, are you a minimec from Quebec? | 08:42 |
| zehra_28 | KM0201: dell studio 1557 | 08:42 |
| minimec | zehra_28:: So there are two drivers for your card. The opensource 'radeon' driver, you are using now, and the catalyst. My guess is, that the GPU runs hot. You do have the fan running, don't you? | 08:43 |
| minimec | leagris: I am a miniemc from Switzerland, but would love to visit Canada once ;) | 08:44 |
| glenn_ | how can i upgrade to thunderbird 3.1.11 | 08:44 |
| zehra_28 | minimec: i don't know how much fan i have. but at the left side one fan is working. but i don't know if there are other fans. | 08:44 |
| leagris | minimec I know a minimec in Everquest2 in my guild :) | 08:44 |
| leagris | sometimes fans just get clogged with dirt | 08:45 |
| stm__ | hi all | 08:46 |
| stm__ | its the root device that is not mounting | 08:46 |
| stm__ | if i changed the uImage | 08:47 |
| minimec | zehra_28: Would be interesting to see the difference, using a different desktop. If using 11.04, could you once login with 'Ubuntu classic (without effects)'? | 08:47 |
| KM0201 | zehra_28: just doing some googling, this is a common issue... i would agree w/ minimec on dropping compiz, etc.. If you're having a cooling issue, etc.. running all those crazy effects is not going to help | 08:48 |
| stm__ | i mean during booting the pandaboard with ubuntu 10 | 08:48 |
| KM0201 | minimec: but he did say eh had this problem w/ previous releases, so while it may be compiz.. I'm guessingit's not. | 08:48 |
| zehra_28 | minimec: ı don't use Ubuntu unity. ı just use classic with compiz. | 08:48 |
| stm__ | if i changed the uImage | 08:48 |
| [root]mariomako | hello all | 08:48 |
| stm__ | the root device is not mounting | 08:48 |

| zehra_28 | minimec: i try it also without effects, it is better than now. But it is not enough. | 08:49 |
| KM0201 | agyzone2: what do you mean? | 08:49 |
| agyzone2 | i am new to linux | 08:49 |
| KM0201 | zehra_28: well, first thing you need to do, is dump effects | 08:49 |
| agyzone2 | and people said that ubuntu was good ditro | 08:49 |
| Acidphase | agyzone2:: same way you wouldona old machine | 08:50 |
| agyzone2 | i have it and want to install on my machine | 08:50 |
| KM0201 | agyzone2: well, it is.. but that doesn't really tell us what your question is. | 08:50 |
| tyreza | anyone here ? | 08:50 |
| zehra_28 | KM0201: On windows7 even i play hard games the laptop is cold enough. but on Ubuntu classic gnome i will face with problmes ? thi si not normal. | 08:50 |
| fairuz | agyzone2: Download and burn the iso. Then boot from that DVD/CD. | 08:50 |

| tyreza | barely 1894 unknow | 08:50 |
| tyreza | barely 1894 unknown DasEi | 08:50 |
| KM0201 | minimec: i totally aree, i have an old acer laptop that will over heat if i go whacko w/ compiz... LXDE to the rescue.. :) | 08:51 |
| DasEi | tyreza: fsck on the UNmounted filesystem (or e2fsck) | 08:51 |
| DasEi | use a live cd or usb to boot | 08:51 |
| tyreza | do you get what i mean ? | 08:51 |
| Acidphase | tyreza:: that checks and repairs the partion | 08:51 |
| KM0201 | zehra_28: i'm not suggesting its normal... the problem most likely, is your fan is not running at max capacity in Ubuntu, because it is partly controlled by Ubuntu. | 08:51 |
| tyreza | well i boot from livecd first of all i want to list all of my partition | 08:51 |
| tyreza | and identify my filesystem how to do ? | 08:52 |
| DasEi | tyreza:sudo fdisk -l | 08:52 |
| KM0201 | zehra_28: i can't remember if you said you checked this, but have you checked the BIOS, to see if there's an option like "Always run CPU FAN"... or something tot hat effect? | 08:52 |
| tyreza | well fdisk -l don't give filesystem information DasEi | 08:52 |
| zehra_28 | minimec: KM0201: ı agree too. But on same laptop with Widnows 7 i play games and the laptop is cold enough. But on Ubuntu even the top comment does not show me something wrong , even i have not open any additional program, i should face with this problme ? | 08:52 |
| tyreza | it says system linux DasEi | 08:53 |
| KM0201 | zehra_28: its not additional programs that run the cooling, it's how the hardware interacts w/ the OS | 08:53 |
| wildbat | mount | 08:53 |
| zehra_28 | KM0201: i update my bios. and i look every option about temperature and fan but there is no any option. | 08:53 |
| tyreza | and what i want to know is if it is ext3 ext4 or else ? how to identy that ? DasEi | 08:53 |
| Acidphase | tyreza:: try df | 08:53 |
| DasEi | tyreza:so ext4 by default, sudo blkid reveals more | 08:53 |
| wildbat | oops ~ sorry wrong window | 08:54 |
| Acidphase | df | 08:54 |
| DasEi | df also | 08:54 |
| KM0201 | zehra_28: well, googling this.. this is not an uncommon issue, and the only successful fix i've saw, was a pretty radical hardware change,, that required disassembling the laptop | 08:54 |
| wildbat | tyreza: sudo bkid | 08:54 |
| DasEi | :) | 08:54 |
| minimec | zehra_28: On the radeon driver the 'powersave' options are not implemented 100%. Your GPU runs hotter with radeon anyway. The catalyst driver should run your card 'cooler' | 08:54 |
| zehra_28 | KM0201: minimec: can i control the fan speeds ? | 08:55 |
| mrmcpowned | Hi, seems i screwed up my file association for folders and now the try to open up using appearances | 08:55 |

| mfaroukg1 | mfaroukg1 is there a problem with adobe these days , I can't watch streaming on my laptop?? | 08:55 |
| zehra_28 | KM0201: minimec: ok . Thank you for your interest. | 08:56 |
| KM0201 | zehra_28: this is the only thread i've saw that solved this issue (and like i said, if you google, there are a LOT of threads on this)... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1553968 but the "fix" is far from easy and is pretty radical. | 08:56 |
| minimec | zehra_28: no problem. | 08:56 |

| Acidphase | tyreza:: USE df -T | 08:57 |
| tyreza | it means is it ext2 or ext3 ? DasEi wilbat | 08:58 |
| DasEi | zehra_28: depends on hardware, there are few possibilities aka thinkfan and other utils, as I'm not up to it, might look in the forum | 08:58 |

| Acidphase | tyreza:: that's it's secondary type | 09:03 |
| Acidphase | tyreza:: it can be mounted as ext2 or ext3 | 09:04 |
| DasEi | kai_: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop && sudo apt-get remove xubuntu-desktop | 09:04 |
| minimec | balooo: If I understand that right, http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/06/set-your-desktop-gdm-plymouth-wallpaper-as-the-same-image/ http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-do-you-change-the-boot-splash-screen-image-for-10-04-lucid-lynx.html | 09:04 |

| tyreza | perfect this is what i got http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/5369/fdiskll.jpg on dmesg | 09:04 |
| DasEi | kai_: then you may want to change into gdm, and maybe some differing apps | 09:04 |
| Acidphase | tyreza:: Basically Ext3 is just Ext2 with journaling. If the journaling breaks for some reason the partition falls automatically back to Ext2 | 09:04 |
| tyreza | apperently i got an error with sda3 | 09:05 |
| DasEi | tyreza: fine so, just enter : mount <<make sure sda3 is not mounted | 09:05 |
| tyreza | i can't mount that partition it says can't read superblock | 09:06 |
| tyreza | yes the partition not mounted what i have to do to troubleshoot that one ? | 09:06 |
| DasEi | tyreza: ok, so we will fsck make it try to fix it, one word ahead, there is always a small risk that messes up, real important data on it ? | 09:06 |
| thedevil | tyreza: perhaps the device you'r trying to mount is elsewhere, i.e. sdb3 | 09:07 |
| DasEi | thedevil: fs is broke, so no use in mounting here | 09:08 |
| thedevil | did you try repairing it with testdisk | 09:08 |

| dresden | Ok, soooo, i think this is what i want to go with for my fstab UUID=4A1A6F441A6F2C5F /media/databackup ntfs auto,user,rw 0 1 in theory it should add my external hd to /media/backup, it is a ntfs, i want it to auto load, i want it to be able to read and write, the document said to add user in there if you having issues (which i am), then dont backup and check the filesystem. What yal think? | 09:15 |
| DasEi | tyreza: that would create a ssectorwise image on another location, f.e. external harddrive before doing any alterings; it depends what caused your fs-error, just the fs or a hardwarefailure (then an image would be nice) | 09:15 |
| thedevil | tyreza: i would apt-get install testdisk then under filesystem utils>Boot Sector Recovery>Repair Ext? | 09:15 |
| DasEi | thedevil: again, we have a fs error, partititions are still there | 09:16 |
| Acidphase | true dont start messing with the MBR unless you have to | 09:16 |
| DasEi | ;) | 09:17 |
| Acidphase | =P | 09:17 |
| DasEi | tyreza: see, I would simply try to repair it, but I don't want to be the bad guy not having told before, fsck never failed on me ( as my hd was fine) | 09:17 |

| dresden | well that is not working right :( so i entered the information into the fstab and now the system mounted it on its own and the fstab also mounted it so i have 2 entries now how do i make it so gnome wont add it on its own, just use the fstab one. | 09:28 |
| thedevil | tyreza: testdisk let me copy anything from the bad drive that i had. it's also a package that comes with a program called photorec which is an app for doing just that, pulling files out of a bad drive. | 09:28 |
| thedevil | tyreza: the point is if you can not fix it, back it up, you can even create and image and zap it over | 09:28 |
| === denny_ is now known as denny | ||
| balooo | I can only get the grub2 boot selector page to have a background image. Then it just has a black background while it displays the task progress during booting... | 09:29 |
| tyreza | testdisk is available on livecd ? | 09:29 |
| thedevil | tyreza: i believe it is | 09:30 |
| country0129 | Sorry for the flood. Don't use irc much, and I didn't know spaces would do that. | 09:30 |

| hemin | Hi, I compiled my kernel from the source code.. after make, make_modules and make install and update_grub, I rebooted.. Now when I choose the new entry from the list, It gives me this error "Kernel panic- not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)" .. any suggestions ?? | 09:33 |
| Rinni | does anyone know how I can keep my cpufreq from changing frequencies? The only two frequencies that are available are 1.0 ghz and 1.8 ghz. I need to figure out a way to keep it from chaing back to 1.0 ghz | 09:33 |
| country0129 | De - militar-er-ized Zone?? | 09:34 |
| thedevil | country0129: the DMZ on your router.. is it enabled or disabled | 09:34 |
| Lasers | DMZ. | 09:34 |
| Rinni | sometimes when I set it, it stays set, but sometimes it doesn't and if it keeps changing on its own, it make my computer freeze up. | 09:35 |
| country0129 | >thedevil: I'm not familiar with that. However, three laptops and my desktop are using it just fine for internet access. Something to do with file sharing I don't know about? | 09:36 |
| DasEi | Rinni: either in bios or de-install the cpu-gooverneur you use, cpudyn or cpufreqd most likely, though it can also be set in the config | 09:37 |
| Acidphase | yep change the profile | 09:37 |
| Acidphase | "performance" | 09:37 |
| Acidphase | if your not comfortable editing files though I'd just shut it off in bios e.g. cool and quiet | 09:38 |
| country0129 | Desktop Windoze 7 can't see Ubuntu 11.04 laptop. Other way works just fine. What's the problem? | 09:39 |
| thedevil | country0129: it's a way of exposing your ports for your intranet | 09:39 |
| DasEi | Rinni: have you got an applet showing your current speed ? | 09:39 |
| thedevil | country0129: give a salute to ip ro for your gateway and then throw those numbers into a web browser and look under gaming of your router panel | 09:40 |
| Zacheous | errrr | 09:40 |
| Zacheous | guys | 09:40 |
| country0129 | For a laptop? | 09:41 |
| country0129 | er, >thedevil: For a laptop? | 09:41 |
| Zacheous | what would you tell someone that got EFFED by someone givving them an .sh that had "chmod -R 666 /" in it? | 09:41 |
| thedevil | country0129: your network | 09:42 |
| opakavic | 666 is nasty | 09:42 |
| dyd | hi all | 09:42 |
| country0129 | 'Cides, the router doesn't have a gaming feature. | 09:42 |
| Zacheous | yea... what would you tell someone that got that in one of their .sh and ran it | 09:42 |
| country0129 | Just looked. | 09:42 |
| Zacheous | and now all their folders arent folders | 09:42 |
| Zacheous | fixable? | 09:42 |

| jenia | I'm trying to find a way to to sign into the AIM protocol using a facebook account, like the official AIM program allows? I've scoured the internet for ways to do it on clients other than the official one and ended up with nada. | 09:43 |
| KM0201 | jenia: havey ou tried using the facebook plugin on pidgin? | 09:43 |
| KM0201 | it seems that should work, since it will link you to anyone? | 09:43 |
| thedevil | country0129: what about a port triggering feature | 09:44 |
| country0129 | Wait | 09:44 |
| opakavic | jenia: use pidgin | 09:44 |
| opakavic | jenia: open pidgin and try xmpp protocol | 09:44 |
| oCean | Zacheous: that's quite a problem I can't think of a proper fix for that | 09:44 |
| Zacheous | yea... | 09:44 |
| opakavic | server name as chat.facebook.com and username is your facebook username, which comes after FB url | 09:45 |
| Zacheous | well i guess im phucked then | 09:45 |
| Zacheous | thanks for nothing.. -.- | 09:45 |
| opakavic | jenia: http://facebook.com/jenia | 09:45 |
| KM0201 | well he was pleasant... lmao | 09:47 |
| country0129 | >thedevil: Nuts...can't sign into the router...password isn't working. That may be a problem....dunno | 09:48 |
| country0129 | might have to reset it. | 09:48 |
| thedevil | country0129: try admin/admin | 09:48 |
| country0129 | No, I'd changed it last time I forgot it <evil grin> | 09:49 |
| dresden | well that is not working right :( so i entered the information into the fstab and now the system mounted it on its own and the fstab also mounted it so i have 2 entries now how do i make it so gnome wont add it on its own, just use the fstab one. Any ideas? | 09:52 |

| soupy | dsdf | 09:53 |
| dresden | ? | 09:54 |
| thedevil | dresden: you're repeating yourself about what idk | 09:54 |
| dresden | i made changes to fstab to put my ext harddrive for some reason i see two of them now after reboot. One i created on the fstab and looks like another one that the system itself added. | 09:57 |
| didin | ubuntu ok | 09:58 |
| thedevil | dresden: two as in two different mount points for on device | 09:59 |
| dresden | aye cpt | 09:59 |
| thedevil | dresden: what | 09:59 |
| dresden | I mean yes. For some reason there are two mount points for my external harddrive. | 10:00 |
| dresden | i wanted it to only use the one on my fstab i created | 10:01 |
| ghsh | dresden: then stop automount | 10:02 |
| dresden | how do i do that? | 10:02 |
| cordoval | hi there, anyone knows how to install flash plugin on a 64 bit natty install? | 10:02 |
| cordoval | for some reason it seems installed but it would not work | 10:02 |
| ghsh | dresden: pref removable .. | 10:03 |
| dyd | guys, how can i browse files of another hd where ubuntu is installed? i just see 3 folders: recycler, system volume information, ubuntu | 10:03 |
| cordoval | when I go to youtube I can-t watch any video | 10:03 |
| ghsh | cordoval: check about:plugins | 10:03 |
| szal | cordoval: did you restart the browser after installing Flash? | 10:04 |
| cordoval | ghsh: I did that | 10:04 |
| cordoval | hmm let me check where to go I get this message | 10:04 |
| cordoval | You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video. | 10:04 |
| cordoval | Download it from Adobe. | 10:04 |
| zeroXten | any ideas where postfix is getting the domainname from when creating /etc/mailname upon install? | 10:04 |
| cordoval | when i go there i download a .so | 10:04 |
| FloodBot1 | cordoval: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 10:04 |
| cordoval | and then don-t know hwo to install | 10:04 |
| share_ | hi | 10:04 |
| szal | dyd: System Volume Information is an NTFS system dir; it's highly unlikely that you have a Linux installation on an NTFS drive | 10:05 |
| cordoval | if I download apt it is for ubuntu 10.04 and it does not do anything | 10:05 |
| ghsh | dresden: put it in /plugins home ot in sytaem files | 10:05 |
| kai_ | when i try to update my xubuntu to ubunut i get following error: must not be installed (unity2d, jockey-gtk, transmission-gtk). what do i have to type into the console to make it work | 10:05 |
| ghsh | dresden: sorry | 10:05 |
| thedevil | dresden: you might have something like gnome-volume-manager running, idk what the solution is but i guess you could remove that | 10:05 |
| ghsh | cordoval: put it in /plugins home ot in sytaem files | 10:05 |
| cordoval | ghsh: oh, but where is /plugins? | 10:06 |
| cordoval | oh /home/cordoval/plugins? | 10:06 |
| dyd | szal: i've used wubi to install ubuntu, i'm pretty sure there is ubuntu on that hd | 10:06 |
| ghsh | cordoval: one usr or all system | 10:06 |
| cordoval | now it is working | 10:07 |
| cordoval | I guess it needed just a reinstall thanks | 10:07 |
| szal | dyd: Wubi is a container that contains the *buntu system, as far as I gather it can be compared to a virtual machine w/ a virtual hard drive, the latter being a file | 10:07 |
| cordoval | restarting browser did the trick | 10:07 |
| dyd | szal: i've use dd to copy all old hd (40gb) to a new one (160gb), used gparted to resize the partition, but i want to recover a few files i've updated during all the process, but can't broswe those files | 10:07 |
| dirtycookie | hello guys, i need some help with gedit, the problem is that i installed the terminal plugin and the hotkey ctrl+f9 doesnt work | 10:07 |
| kai_ | gb | 10:09 |
| beli | dyd: what does "cant browse" mean? | 10:09 |
| dyd | beli: if i go to "places" and chose "40 gb filesystem" i just see a few folders, but nothing about all linux folders | 10:10 |
| * szal has no friggin' idea where Wubi places an installation | 10:10 | |
| szal | !wubi | 10:11 |
| ubottu | Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. For Ubuntu Maverick/10.10 http://releases.ubuntu.com/maverick/wubi.exe | 10:11 |
| DasEi | szal: C:\ubuntu and C:\wubildr* | 10:12 |
| beli | dyd: so you tried to dd over the whole disc not just a partition? and you are able to see the folders on your windows partitions and not your linux partition and folders? or how is your hdd setup? | 10:14 |
| szal | DasEi: doesn't entirely answer the question; but the Wubi FAQ suggests that Wubi indeed runs *buntu from a virtual disk | 10:15 |
| DasEi | szal: yes, it does | 10:15 |
| gob_bluth | has anybody had any problems getting Ubuntu10 to run as HVM domU under a Debiam Dom0 (Lenny) | 10:16 |
| DasEi | szal: like a mounted image | 10:16 |
| van7hu | hello, anyone familiar with ophcrack? | 10:16 |
| DasEi | van7hu: wrong channel, try #windows | 10:16 |
| szal | dyd: iow, it's not possible to browse files in a Wubi installation, unless you know the image format and a way to mount the image (similar to what e.g. PowerISO does w/ a CD image) | 10:17 |
| klj613 | hi, i just installed (in order) apache2, php5, libapache2-mod-php5, mysql-server, libapache2-mod-auth-mysql php5-mysql phpmyadmin and http://localhost/phpmyadmin not found? -.- (i have restarted apache) | 10:17 |
| dyd | beli: a little story: i had my 500 hd with xp installed on, then i wanted to try ubuntu and used wubi to install it on this old 40gb hd, soon it became too small so made a dd of all my 40gb in an img file, then i dd this image in my new 160gb hd and resized the partition. Now i'm in ubuntu with the new hd, but if i try to browse the 40 gb filesystem i can't see nothing else than a few folders | 10:17 |
| van7hu | DasEi, nope, my issue is on Ubuntu | 10:17 |
| DasEi | szal: there are ways to recover files from wubi, f.e. it crashed | 10:17 |
| DasEi | van7hu: what are you trying ? | 10:18 |
| stercor | My cursor is unresponsive. Where do I start to correct it? | 10:18 |
| dyd | szal: what is the filesystem of an ubuntu installation? ext3? if i unmount the hd, then mount it manually setting ext3 filesystem it may work? | 10:19 |
| van7hu | DasEi, It's installed, but I wonder what table should I install? | 10:19 |
| naftilos76 | hi everyone, is there a tool that can help me get all clients within my locan net? | 10:19 |
| van7hu | DasEi, I install it from repository | 10:19 |
| nibbler__ | naftilos76, what do you want to get? ping, fping, nmap | 10:20 |
| XOXO1 | hey, I want to make a custom icon pack. where do I put those icons which indicate wifi signal strenght & status? | 10:20 |
| szal | dyd: that won't help you jack, since the installation is not on a physical partition but in a file that acts as a partition from within the Wubi installation | 10:20 |
| nibbler__ | XOXO1, check network manager applet (download its source maybe?) | 10:20 |
| DasEi | van7hu: http://ophcrack.sourceforge.net/tables.php | 10:20 |
| dyd | szal: ah ok... can't i mount that file as a partition and finally browse it? :) | 10:21 |
| nibbler__ | klj613, check your apache config or myphpadm-apache config for the virtual directry stuff? | 10:21 |
| dyd | szal: mount it as an hd, or whatever | 10:21 |
| naftilos76 | nibbler__: i want a tool that can give me all active connections between clients and the router. Can this info be extracted by a client or within the router through ssh etc? | 10:21 |
| stercor | Is there a way to navigate the GUI with the keyboard? | 10:21 |
| klj613 | nibbler__: i just found the problem, had to add /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf to apache2 config :) thanks anyway | 10:22 |
| DasEi | szal: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1639198 | 10:22 |
| dyd | szal: btw this sucks, so i'll be condamned to have a fake linux installation forevah? | 10:22 |
| DasEi | ah dyd is the one having the wubi issue | 10:22 |
| van7hu | DasEi, okay | 10:22 |
| van7hu | DasEi, thank bro | 10:22 |
| nibbler__ | naftilos76, thats quiet easy, go to router and issue "netstat -nap |grep ESTABL" or read out /proc/net/...dontknow/ip_conntrack | 10:23 |
| szal | DasEi: don't poke me, I don't run a Wubi thingy ;) | 10:23 |
| DasEi | so szal is ? | 10:23 |
| shem | :D | 10:23 |
| szal | DasEi: and clean your glasses ;) | 10:23 |
| shem | ʲô?? | 10:23 |
| morning | Problem with USB flash drive. It worked on Ubuntu. Now the drive is still recognized but the file system is not. (The disk utility reports it as "not partitioned.") I had this happen to me before, with another flash drive, and formatting it somehow bricked the drive.) Advice? | 10:24 |
| naftilos76 | nibbler__: i can't get connected to the router. I am on a client. Can this be done while typing the command on a client? | 10:24 |
| DasEi | szal: first thing if you have a bad wubi not starting would be defrag of win's ntfs | 10:24 |
| nibbler__ | naftilos76, for your client only the netstat will do, but you wont see other clients connections | 10:24 |
| dyd | guys i think i found out what i have to do: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1519354 | 10:24 |

| ubottu | To change the Gnome splash screen, use gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor. | 10:34 |
| nibbler__ | mosx1, good you found it ;-) but this is not a bug, you just cant save while having a sub dialog open.. makes sense somehow... well | 10:34 |

| i5noc | ok later all ;) | 10:34 |
| mosx1 | pretty unclear to me what that means | 10:35 |
| i5noc | mosx1, lets say you want a local route to local boxes | 10:35 |
| i5noc | 10.1.0.x - then they only do whatever on that, it will not connect to internet | 10:35 |
| i5noc | if you leave unchecked, it will use that route to contact outside world ;) | 10:35 |

| nibbler__ | sveinse, well, there are several howtos on how to save battery, choice of filesystem, frequency of writing the transaction log (fstype), spinning down discs. if you manage to spn down your disk, you can easily load the movie to ram (tmpfs) and watch from there, should save some mAh | 11:11 |
| nibbler__ | mosx1, well, you can access the box? so can you route -n, and paste the output? | 11:11 |
| nibbler__ | mosx1, guess i'm misunderstanding your paste problem :/ | 11:11 |
| mosx1 | paste the output where ? | 11:11 |
| mosx1 | I'm physically sat at the box | 11:12 |
| jrib | DolbyS: make sure you don't destroy the directory structure in there. Some daemons will refuse to start if you do (e.g. apache) | 11:12 |

| nibbler__ | mosx1, route del -net 10.10.10.0/24 | 11:17 |
| nibbler__ | mosx1, at least i belive so ;-) setting additional routes that point to your default gw is sort of not needed in most cases... unless you have another also matching, less specific route pointing elsewhere | 11:18 |
| mosx1 | yeah, i agree - I didn't set the route at a console I used the GUI | 11:19 |

| nibbler__ | thezanke, i'd suggest using a different browser then, as being the easiest fix.... | 11:26 |
| nibbler__ | DolbyS, this can be solved by not working as root and not deleting random files | 11:26 |
| oCean | DolbyS: if you deleted files such a .bashrc you can copy them again from /etc/skel | 11:26 |
| jrib | DolbyS: start by telling us *exactly* what you did... | 11:26 |

| Pin | Guys, my ubuntu unity and ubuntu classic in 11.04 got messed up when i tried enabling desktop cube in compiz manager. How do i restore my ubuntu back to normal? | 11:58 |
| alexisadu | i.e. I dont have a flash drive or a blank cd | 11:58 |
| rabbit1 | Fudge: i had to force quit... few more mins | 11:58 |
| om26er | alexisadu, no, I think | 11:58 |
| sudokill | alexisadu, no you cant | 11:58 |
| sofaking69 | who wants to lick my pussie clean of all its smegma? | 11:58 |
| sudokill | nah | 11:59 |
| nibbler__ | alexisadu, it is possible, but not easy or userfriendly. | 11:59 |
| sofaking69 | nibble on my clit, nibbler | 11:59 |
| sofaking69 | do it | 11:59 |
| sudokill | lol | 11:59 |
| compdoc | sofaking69, if you cant spell it, youve never even seen one | 11:59 |
| alexisadu | what would it look like? Id imagine it should work with a virtual drive or something | 11:59 |
| nibbler__ | ;-) | 11:59 |
| rabbit1 | nibbler__: hi | 11:59 |
| alexisadu | or a boot sector would be needed on that? | 11:59 |
| om26er | compdoc, lol :D | 12:00 |
| BluesKaj | Fudge, the kernel modules have to be built from the source code package which is available in the repos , the modules or somereasnfail to build according to the filed bug | 12:00 |
| alexisadu | ok I see, http://superuser.com/questions/129222/upgrade-ubuntu-from-32-to-64-bit-edition thanks | 12:00 |
| nibbler__ | alexisadu, make a partition to be / in the end, download all files needed, unpack them there, config the bootloader and fire! | 12:00 |
| BluesKaj | err for some reason | 12:00 |
| Fudge | BluesKaj im only on 32bit so havnt seen it but vinux has been building 64 and 32bit for natty and we havent seen any bugs | 12:01 |
| Fudge | but there are some good accessibility guys so if it warrents it, they will action :D | 12:01 |
| rabbit1 | Fudge: no luck, i am in irc.ubuntu.com | 12:01 |
| Fudge | rabbit1 it takes you to irc.freenode.net, i dont know what smslib is though, i didnt see it in apt-cache | 12:02 |
| dyd | how long can it take to format a 160 gb hd with ext4 ? | 12:02 |
| dyd | using gparted it took about 2-3 mins | 12:02 |
| Fudge | depending on your hardware dyd that is about right | 12:02 |
| compdoc | dyd, about 10 secs if you use gparted | 12:02 |
| dr_willis | dyd, i wouldent think to long.. | 12:02 |
| rabbit1 | Fudge: smslib is a developers library | 12:02 |
| Fudge | rabbit1 have you googled to find their homepage wiki stuff like that, they might be on another ircd if they even have irc support | 12:02 |

| dyd | wubi-move-2.0.sh: This is normal if the partition is unformatted or the file | 12:04 |
| dyd | wubi-move-2.0.sh: system is corrupted. It could also mean you have entered | 12:04 |
| dyd | wubi-move-2.0.sh: the wrong partition. The partition will have to be formatted | 12:04 |
| dyd | wubi-move-2.0.sh: in order to complete validation. | 12:04 |

| sudokill | vik do you know the routers ip? usually 192.168.1.1 or 0.1 | 12:06 |
| sudokill | or similar | 12:06 |
| dyd | BluesKaj: ah, i tought i'd see a msg telling me that "format is complete, proceding writing data" | 12:06 |
| dyd | BluesKaj: so that's why it's taking so long? | 12:06 |
| vik | yes | 12:07 |
| vik | im tryin | 12:07 |
| sudokill | vik, ok | 12:07 |

| vik | bcos im corp network | 12:09 |
| BluesKaj | vik, to find the router IP/gateway , do route in the terminal | 12:09 |
| vik | my local ip keeps changin | 12:09 |
| sudokill | vik, its because your using dhcp | 12:09 |
| vik | hw do i over come that | 12:10 |
| sudokill | vik, set a local ip manually | 12:10 |

| dr_willis | mosx1, vino is part of Gnome.. its a remote desktop tool. | 12:11 |
| sudokill | vik, follow the iface eth0 inet static if your doing it with the text file then | 12:11 |

| l33_ | when compigling kernel with kernelcheck i found an entry in xconfig to enable the sqaush module in kernel, but i cant find an option to enable the aufs module for the new kernel | 12:56 |
| l33_ | anyone knows if and where such an option of aufs in xconfig is? | 12:56 |
| Sidewinder1 | Padge, I have noticed that there certain applications that will only run one instance of themselves; what governs this, I do not know. Plus I'm using Lucid, 10.04 noy Natty. | 12:57 |
| ikonia | l33_: you need to look at what's supported in what kernel | 12:57 |
| klopec | Hi, I try to install Ubuntu, but syslinux don't work on my computer with WIndows 7 but It works with the ubuntu one.... | 12:57 |
| ikonia | l33_: we don't support custom kernels here | 12:57 |
| ikonia | klopec: the OS on your computer shouldn't matter if you're booting from a livecd | 12:57 |
| l33_ | i know, yes...its not really custom ,just the latest vanilla 2.6.39.2 with kernelcheck | 12:58 |
| ikonia | l33_: that is custom | 12:58 |
| l33_ | aufs and sqaush are supported since 2.6 i guess | 12:58 |
| l33_ | ok | 12:58 |
| l33_ | thanks ikonia | 12:58 |
| ikonia | l33_: grep the .config file | 12:58 |
| l33_ | config file for aufs?? not seen yet | 12:59 |
| klopec | ikonia : Okay,but before I install windows, the usb boot worked (The motherboard is a Gigabyte M52S-S3P rev1 | 12:59 |
| ikonia | l33_: no the kernel .config file | 12:59 |
| l33_ | k, thank you very much! | 13:00 |
| bolt | how can I get firefox 5 on ubuntu 10.10? | 13:00 |
| szal | klopec: what exactly are you talking about? | 13:00 |
| n4dsp | anyone help with setting my wifi settings in ubuntu network mgr? | 13:00 |
| l33_ | i will try again...man, this is hard work | 13:00 |
| n4dsp | anyone here for wifi help???? | 13:01 |
| l33_ | surely remastering isnt for beginners, but if there is a one click tool, it should work (i guess) | 13:01 |
| ikonia | l33_: depends if you're using supported technologies | 13:02 |
| klopec | sza1 : I have ubuntu on my USB key ( setup with unetbootin ), but when I boot on my USB key, I only see the "SYSLINUX" message... But on another computer ( a EEE PC, it boot perfectly) | 13:02 |
| l33_ | right, the remastersys isnt in the ubuntu repositories | 13:02 |
| MonkeyDODO | hello | 13:02 |
| bolt | nvm. found it | 13:02 |
| ikonia | l33_: ok - so why are you complaining it's not working ? | 13:03 |
| nibbler__ | klopec, capabilities of booting from usb vary widely. i have several PCs that claim to be able to boot, but actually cant :/ | 13:03 |
| l33_ | seems like i am gettin linuxised | 13:03 |
| Shambat | Sidewinder1: do you know if a newer version of mysql is available in the next version up from 9.04? | 13:03 |
| l33_ | sorry, u r right ikonia | 13:03 |
| ikonia | l33_: this channels for ubuntu support.......remastersys isn't in ubuntu, so no point moaning here | 13:03 |
| szal | Shambat: 9.10 is also dead | 13:03 |
| Sidewinder1 | Shambat, I have no ides, sorry. :-( | 13:03 |
| l33_ | i understand - right | 13:03 |
| klopec | nibbler_ : Okay, but before I installed Windows 7, it worked perfectly | 13:03 |
| Sidewinder1 | idea, even. | 13:03 |
| l33_ | so ubuntu repository has unionfs-fuse; so i should use unionfs and not aufs because aufs isnt supported by ubuntu (officially) ? | 13:04 |
| Sidewinder1 | klopec, If you installed Win7 after ubuntu, you may need to repair grub. | 13:04 |
| ikonia | l33_: you're using a custom kernel, so it doesn't matter what you use | 13:05 |
| klopec | Sidewinder1: During the Windows Installation, ubuntu and grub was removed I think | 13:05 |
| Sidewinder1 | klopec, You may wish to explore: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub | 13:06 |
| Sidewinder1 | klopec, If ubuntu was completely over-written, you'll need to reinstall ubuntu. | 13:06 |
| klopec | Sidewinder1: Okay, on my computer I have only windows, no ubuntu at all (I wish I can install ubuntu...) | 13:07 |
| l33_ | and if i would use orionic onion you would also say that it is still development and so no support for this ubuntu version, right? | 13:07 |
| klopec | Sidewinder1: It's what I try, by booting on my usb key | 13:07 |
| ikonia | l33_: what part of "custom kernel" and "not supported" is not clear ? | 13:07 |
| bazhang | !11.10 | l33_ | 13:07 |
| ubottu | l33_: Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot) will be the fifteenth release of Ubuntu. Codename announcement here: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/?p=646 Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 13:07 |
| ikonia | l33_: you can use what you want as it won't be supported as you're using a custom kernel | 13:07 |
| l33_ | i understand; 11.10 has the realtime kernel 2.6.39 - so here this kernel isnt custom but the ubuntu version is still to young for beginners ? | 13:08 |
| ikonia | l33_: I wouldn't be using it unless you know what you're doing, expect the machine to fail and can deal with that | 13:08 |
| bazhang | l33_, no idea what that means. "too young for beginners" | 13:09 |
| Sidewinder1 | klopec, Why not just download and burn a new ubuntu LiveCD? Then you'll have a copy available whenever you need it. | 13:09 |
| l33_ | i am using 11.10 on my second laptop and its amazing to see how ubuntu is developed and how the distro update works | 13:09 |
| klopec | Sidewinder1: I haven't writable CD....(I will get one at the RMLL in 4 day =) ) | 13:10 |
| l33_ | some people suggested me not to use a development distro | 13:10 |
| Sidewinder1 | klopec, Just remember to run an MD5SUM, prior to burning to assure you have a perfect copy. | 13:10 |
| ikonia | l33_: that is a wise choice | 13:10 |
| klopec | Sidewinder1: I used torrent, so my copy is checked I think | 13:10 |
| Sidewinder1 | klopec, Torrent or not, I'd still md5 to be certain. | 13:11 |
| l33_ | some people suggested me not to use a development distro, maybe this will work | 13:11 |
| Sidewinder1 | klopec, Can't hurt. :-) | 13:11 |
| l33_ | i will try on and tell you later the results (if you are interested) - found some kernels with patched aufs modules | 13:11 |
| admgy22 | so, I am trying to add a server {} block for a new TLD. The old one has the root at /opt/virtualenv/[domain] due to a Pylons config. Where should I put the new one, which is a simple static page? (/var/www seems to me insufficient, because that nomenaclature doesn't incldue the name of the new TLD... shoudl I create a /var/www/[ourname].com ? | 13:12 |
| admgy22 | nginx here | 13:12 |
| klopec | Sidewinder1: Did It (but with a option in my torrent client) | 13:12 |

| remoteCTRL | how can i install grub to a disk that i have booted via live.cd? | 13:13 |
| Sidewinder1 | klopec, I guess that accomplishes the same thing. :D | 13:13 |
| amit | it says as output :: sudo passwd -dl root | 13:14 |
| ikonia | amit: passwwd -l root will lock the account again | 13:14 |
| Almtesh | Oops, I've forgotten a thing. | 13:14 |
| Almtesh | Hi everybody. | 13:14 |
| amit | ikonia: is it passwd -l root?? | 13:15 |
| bryan_ | hi | 13:15 |

| remoteCTRL | i am trying to install grub to a disk that i booted via live cd per chroot but i get an error that /dev is not mounted, i know there is a way to do this but i cannot find it...? | 13:15 |
| ikonia | Almtesh: ok, to pickup from #ubuntu-offtopic, you need to specify static linking in the confiugre options | 13:15 |
| amit | ikonia: when i try that it says passwd: password expiry information changed. | 13:16 |
| ikonia | amit: ok, it's done | 13:16 |

| prabhakar | i installed two os in my pc but it shows an grub rescue unkown file system | 13:17 |
| Sidewinder1 | bryan_, What make model printer? | 13:17 |

| Almtesh | ikonia, I can't find such options on help. | 13:17 |
| Frazz | amit: Yup. | 13:17 |
| ikonia | Almtesh: pastebint the output of ./configure --help please | 13:17 |
| bryan_ | canon mp250 | 13:18 |
| Frazz | amit: I can update the repo's, I can install stuff. Just not from update-manager. I suspect anything that may require me to use gksudo and such. | 13:18 |
| bryan_ | it recognise the thing but never print a page yet | 13:18 |
| Almtesh | Hum, yes, I can. | 13:18 |
| Sidewinder1 | bryan_, I'm assuming you've already tried System-->Adiminstration-->Printing? And tried to add the printer from there? | 13:19 |
| amit | Frazz: gksudo is used for graphical apps like open gedit as root | 13:19 |
| amit | one thing I may suggest is to reinstall update manager.. but I amnt sure | 13:19 |
| Osmodivs | Hello. Why can't i delete some items from the trash bin? I select deleting permately option and get this message: Failed to delete the item from the trash | 13:20 |

| bryan_ | the printing said completed but nothing happen | 13:20 |
| MrsB | ls -la | 13:20 |
| MrsB | oops | 13:20 |
| amit | Frazz: whats it telling when you try to open update manager | 13:20 |
| glenn_ | ikonia, it is just for testing | 13:21 |
| Frazz | amit: Sorry, I wasn't clear. I suspect the issue was with gksudo. My assumption is that update-manager was calling gksudo. What happens is that update-manager pops up and tells me that there's updates. When I tell it to proceed it asks me to authenticate. After entering my pw I get a message saying that it was unable to authenticate. | 13:21 |
| ikonia | glenn_: we spoke about this yesterday | 13:21 |
| glenn_ | how can i do that | 13:21 |
| ikonia | glenn_: in #ubuntu-ops | 13:21 |
| Osmodivs | Failed to delete the item from the trash | 13:21 |
| Osmodivs | Why?! | 13:21 |
| Frazz | amit: It says - Your authentication attempt was unsuccessful. Please try again. | 13:21 |

| Osmodivs | Is it stick on the bottom of the bin? | 13:21 |

| amit | Frazz: are you new to linux? | 13:23 |
| Frazz | amit: Nope, quite seasoned. | 13:23 |
| bryan_ | are you here sidewinder1 | 13:23 |
| ikonia | Almtesh: look at the -L option for the compiler, and force it to link | 13:23 |
| amit | Frazz: ok.. I was thinking maybe youu arent is admin group | 13:23 |
| amit | you say you do have sudo rights..r8?? | 13:24 |
| Osmodivs | Why can't I delete some items in the trash bin? I select them and chose "delete permanently" but I keep getting this error: Failed to delete the item from the trash. WHY!? | 13:24 |
| Frazz | amit: I'm in the admin group. My groups: seana adm dialout cdrom www-data plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare vboxusers seana pwsw pwit | 13:24 |
| Sidewinder1 | bryan_, Yes but I have somewhat exhausted my efforts to help, other than suggesting that you go to the Canon web-site to look for a linux driver for your printer. That is a "last resort" solution, however. | 13:25 |

| dimas_ | is that true that to be able to get the names of the songs from your mp3 the application have to compare the info from the cd to a database on the internet? | 13:44 |
| Dr_Willis_ | dimas_: thers several online music and movie database sites. | 13:44 |
| tyreza | there is list of question i have to answer yes is that normal ? dr_willis | 13:45 |
| Dr_Willis_ | tyreza: if it finds proboems you tell it to fix them.. or use the -y option to auto fix | 13:45 |
| dimas_ | Dr_Willis_ how about if my mp3 have custom metadata? | 13:45 |
| tyreza | i put yes for all ? | 13:45 |
| Dr_Willis_ | dimas_: some apps can read the id3 tags | 13:45 |
| tyreza | i put yes for all ? dr_willis | 13:45 |
| Dr_Willis_ | tyreza: i always do. | 13:45 |
| Dr_Willis_ | you do want it to fix all errors... | 13:45 |
| bryan_ | are you still asmadive | 13:46 |
| tyreza | so you mean ext.3 /dev/sda1 -y dr_willis | 13:46 |
| Dr_Willis_ | tyreza: soomthing like that i think. been a while | 13:46 |
| Dr_Willis_ | fsck -y /dev/sdXX | 13:46 |
| Dr_Willis_ | !fsck | 13:46 |
| ubottu | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 13:46 |
| szal | bryan_: http://www.canon-europe.com/Support/System/Search.aspx?TcmUri=tcm:13-822896&SearchType=3 | 13:46 |
| tyreza | so no need to tell the filesystem ? dr_willis | 13:47 |
| Dr_Willis_ | I think it can tell if its ext2/3/4 | 13:47 |
| Dr_Willis_ | unless its really really messed up | 13:47 |
| tyreza | i prefer this way fsck.ext3 /dev/sda1 -y what do you think about ? dr_willis | 13:48 |
| dimas_ | Dr_Willis_ what application can read id3? | 13:48 |
| dimas_ | perhaps | 13:48 |
| dr_willis | tyreza, try it and ssee | 13:50 |

| Andy80 | anyone of you knows where Dropbox settings are saved? I cannot make indicator icon to appear :\ (I've installed Natty but the /home is the same I used on Maverick). If I try it with another user it works fine so it must be something in my user home. I've deleted both .dropbox and .dropbox-dist, run dropbox start -i ecc..... still same problem. | 13:56 |

| Osmodivs | bryan_: Like in Windows | 13:57 |
| bryan_ | ok i try | 13:57 |
| bampersand | any ideas? i really don't have any idea as to similar applications and for a project i really need it. | 13:59 |

| Osmodivs | bryan_: There is a printer and a scanner package, I think, install thos, reboot, and print | 13:59 |
| bryan_ | but which file is it m8 | 13:59 |
| Osmodivs | bryan_: look for the .deb file | 13:59 |

| aLeSD | ok | 14:01 |
| aLeSD | I have a strange question : I have a video and I want to make a video with viceversa . Is it possible ? | 14:01 |
| amit | any1 has any idea wy avahi-daemon is using two ports in my computer | 14:01 |
| Dr_Willis_ | aLeSD: huh? | 14:01 |
| aLeSD | Dr_Willis_: opposite way | 14:02 |
| amit | and nmbd?? i dont use samba | 14:02 |
| Dr_Willis_ | aLeSD: you mean you want to play it in reverse? | 14:02 |
| DrManhattan | so im using a livecd of the alpha or beta of whatever the next version is, and its WAY better than your release version as far as performance goes | 14:02 |
| aLeSD | Dr_Willis_, yes | 14:02 |
| DrManhattan | like night and day | 14:02 |
| amit | can it be a backdoor hacking? | 14:02 |
| aLeSD | Dr_Willis_, and record it | 14:02 |
| bazhang | DrManhattan, #ubuntu+1 for that | 14:02 |
| DrManhattan | to be honest I think i'd have stayed with Ubuntu if the release version of unity worked this well | 14:02 |
| DrManhattan | ok thanks bazhang | 14:02 |
| amit | what are they doing using udp | 14:02 |
| Dr_Willis_ | aLeSD: i imagine ffmpeg,or mencoder can reendode it in reverse.. the things can do everything else... | 14:02 |
| dimas_ | nothingspecial i need a program who could read the names of the songs of my cd | 14:02 |
| amit | any idea any1 | 14:02 |
| bryan__ | osmodev | 14:03 |
| Osmodivs | Ok, now if you excuse me, I'll leave. | 14:03 |
| Osmodivs | bryan_: I asume you are talking to me... | 14:03 |
| nothingspecial | dimas_: oh, lots and lots of them, have you tried sound-juicer | 14:03 |
| DrManhattan | bazhang, but just dropping that in here too, so you guys know, the live media works WAY better between the versions | 14:03 |
| Osmodivs | Yes? | 14:03 |
| bryan__ | really iahavent seen such package before there so many subfolder but no deb file | 14:03 |

| bazhang | dimas_, simply read the names? | 14:04 |
| amit | nmbd and avahi-daemon??? | 14:04 |
| anon | it could be amit remember the nsakey | 14:04 |
| Almtesh | oCean, no. | 14:04 |
| Almtesh | Not yet. | 14:04 |
| nothingspecial | dimas_: maybe the cd is not yet in the database, you could try something that uses a different one. | 14:04 |
| amit | anon: what?? | 14:04 |
| dimas_ | bazhang doesnt read anything | 14:04 |
| bazhang | anon, thats nonsense. please dont repeat | 14:04 |
| bazhang | amit ignore that | 14:05 |
| oCean | Almtesh: you downloaded the source from repository? apt-get source e2fsprogs ? | 14:05 |
| Almtesh | But, I'm taking a look on the system itself. | 14:05 |
| bryan__ | cant use the terminal to install the driver | 14:05 |
| kaellan | Is it posible to use sd cards as cash memory for ubuntu ? | 14:05 |
| klingan | Hello! I'm quite new to Linux/Ubuntu and still have a problem I can't figure out. I use a Samsung SCX-4500 Multifunction Printer connected as a network printer on a NAS/Excito B3 1TB. Once I had Windows installed on my computer, I could use the printing and scanning functions properly. But now (using Ubuntu 11.04), I can only use the printing functions. No application (XSANE for instance) is able to find any image viewers. Any ideas? Th | 14:05 |
| klingan | anks | 14:05 |
| klingan | I have located and installed a Unified Linux Drivers Package. It could, however, not find any printer on my network over samba (SMB://), so I had to add the IP manually. This added another printer (besides my earlier, autoadded printer) among my available printers. I am able to print through this printer (therefor using the printer pack), but I am not able to scan. I have read a few forum threads, mentioning that scanning should be pos | 14:05 |
| klingan | sible with the drivers. Any ideas? Thanks. | 14:05 |
| FloodBot1 | klingan: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 14:05 |
| Almtesh | The matter probably does not come from the e2fsprogs tools. | 14:05 |
| dimas_ | nothingspecial indeed as is custom by me | 14:05 |
| Dr_Willis_ | kaellan: you could put a swap file or parittion on them. but thats about it., | 14:05 |
| amit | bazhang: any idea?? | 14:05 |
| oCean | Almtesh: once you run configure and make, you can create a e2fsck.static from that subdirectory | 14:05 |
| amit | anyways; any1 knows of a decent youtube downloader in ubuntu | 14:06 |
| amit | I am fed up with clipgrab and grab-your-videos | 14:06 |
| Almtesh | klingan, be careful, you are becoming a flooder. | 14:06 |
| amit | they dont work properly | 14:06 |
| bazhang | amit, firefox video download helper | 14:06 |
| appu | hi | 14:06 |
| ikonia | amit: there are firefox plugins for it | 14:06 |
| Dr_Willis_ | amit: ive seen FF extensions that work fine for me. | 14:06 |
| amit | bazhang: I use chrome.. | 14:06 |
| nothingspecial | dimas_: Then afaik you'll have to write the tags yourself. Soundjuicer reads a database online | 14:06 |
| mintux | I set up mount.ecryptfs on my home directory. is there any way to remove this ? | 14:06 |
| DrManhattan | I stand corrected | 14:06 |
| kaellan | Dr_Willis_: ok ty | 14:06 |
| bryan__ | heelo osmodivs | 14:06 |
| Dr_Willis_ | got some aps on my amazon phone. :) | 14:06 |
| DrManhattan | xchat crashed XD | 14:06 |
| lumos | gnome is installed, but broken because I `rm -rf /`ed and stopped immediately after, but after deleting important gnome files or whatever. My system still works. How can I reinstall everything and pull in all dependencies? | 14:07 |
| bazhang | amit, then mention that in your question | 14:07 |
| amit | I use chrome.. frefox is too biggy | 14:07 |
| klingan | Almtech, why is that? It was several hours since I asked the same question. :p | 14:07 |
| Dr_Willis_ | check chromne plugins then | 14:07 |
| amit | ok bazhang | 14:07 |
| DrManhattan | I gotta test out some other stuff | 14:07 |
| Almtesh | oCean, I must do something else before seeing again that cross-compiling. | 14:07 |
| Osmodivs | bryan_: Hey | 14:07 |
| bryan__ | yes# | 14:07 |
| appu | www.sag-3.blogspot.com | 14:07 |
| oCean | Almtesh: that's fine | 14:07 |

| dimas_ | nothingspecial is already written that is why i wonder why the program have to look for the info online if is in the mp3 already | 14:08 |
| Almtesh | (not sure of the expression. | 14:08 |
| Osmodivs | bryan_: Still hav't found the .deb packages? | 14:08 |
| oCean | Almtesh: say what? | 14:08 |
| bryan__ | no | 14:09 |
| oCean | appu: no spamming | 14:09 |
| tyreza | i got kernel parnic dr_willis after an fsck | 14:09 |
| appu | k | 14:09 |
| amit | any1 know of decent youtube downloadr for google chrome | 14:09 |
| szal | bryan__: what's so hard there? -> unpack the .tar you downloaded, unpack cnijfilter-mp250series-3.40-1-deb.tar.gz, go to subdirectory packages/ & install the 2 files ending in 'i386.deb' | 14:09 |
| aeon-ltd | amit: search chrome extensions, your question doesn't really suit this chan | 14:10 |
| Ignacio | I need to capture the screen, there a program for that | 14:10 |
| szal | Ignacio: still capture or motion capture? | 14:11 |
| Osmodivs | Ignacio: Press the key on top of the INSERT key | 14:11 |
| nothingspecial | dimas_: id3 tags aren't on music cds, I don't think. You'll ahve to put your cd in the database | 14:11 |
| szal | lol.. can't have been important then ;) | 14:12 |
| amit | aeon-ltd: I was asking abt download manager for ubuntu.. | 14:12 |
| amit | like idm, orbit downloader.. | 14:12 |
| amit | it sucks there isnt a decent one here | 14:12 |
| Dr_Willis_ | i rarely need download managers these days. | 14:13 |
| szal | amit: define 'decent' | 14:13 |
| amit | szal: decent means which works | 14:13 |
| Osmodivs | Dr_Willis_: You are kidding: wget does not work that good | 14:13 |
| amit | I used clipgrab.. it downloded and showed finished for 6 videos and all of them were 0 bytes | 14:13 |
| appu | what is ubuntu means | 14:13 |
| Dr_Willis_ | Osmodivs: I use wget to get files sometimes .. works fine for me.. | 14:14 |
| dimas_ | wow...why souch of simple thing is so difficult....is just the names of the songs....why the application dont the read that?...shiii | 14:14 |
| szal | amit: youtube-dl ftw | 14:14 |
| Dr_Willis_ | dimas_: the name of the sonbgs are not built into the cd. thats why theres a database | 14:14 |
| Osmodivs | Download Them All FTW!! | 14:14 |
| bryan__ | sad but no deb file | 14:14 |
| szal | bryan__: you gotta be kidding.. | 14:15 |
| bryan__ | really no deb file | 14:15 |

| nothingspecial | dimas_: If the tags are in the mp3s, then the music player (banshee, rhythmbox, whatever will read them). Music cds don't come with tags. sound-juicers purpose is to find those tags online. That's what it does. | 14:15 |
| amit | szal: any gui | 14:15 |
| bryan__ | send me the file ..can you | 14:15 |

| Hyperbyte | I have a command in a script, and I pipe the output to the "mail" command, so I receive a mail when it finishes. Sometimes there's empty mails though, because the first command didn't output anything. Is there anyway to prevent this? | 14:17 |
| Osmodivs | bryan_: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9041618/cnijfilter-common_3.40-1_i386.deb | 14:18 |
| Osmodivs | bryan_: Just double click it | 14:18 |
| Hyperbyte | Command would be "script.sh | mail root@localhost". How can I prevent empty e-mails? | 14:18 |
| szal | Osmodivs: how about the other .deb? | 14:18 |
| dimas_ | nothingspecial i used to use fruity loop studio in windows and can wait to start with ardour | 14:19 |

| dimas_ | i know | 14:20 |
| isleshocky77 | Not sure what room to ask this in, but when using ./configure; if you have a lot of options - is there a way of feeding a text file full of those line options into configure? ./configure --prefix="/opt/blah" becomes ./configure < con_options with con_options being a files with the options? | 14:20 |
| bazhang | dzone_, oneiric support in #ubuntu+1 | 14:20 |
| dzone_ | bazhang ok thanks | 14:20 |

| theseum | I'm having a problem with Unity. Probably 50% of the time, a few seconds after I log in, the top bar will turn light grey and all the icons will become ugly. Also, the terminal windows get white backgrounds, instead of semi transparent. I think all the icons change (for example in firefox) and possibly other UI elements, I'm not totally sure, but the whole systems becomes sort of ugly. This is fixed by a reboot, unless it happens again. | 14:24 |
| Osmodivs | szal: Can you check the link I send to bryan_ Please? perhaps the link is broken or corrupt? | 14:24 |
| Hyperbyte | nothingspecial, thanks. Should've read the fine manual anyways, because on the manpage of "mail" it says with -E it silently ignores empty mail bodies. Apparently the option was especially added for scripting. *doh* | 14:24 |
| Osmodivs | szal: Never mind, he quit | 14:24 |
| Osmodivs | And I am gonna quit now too, | 14:25 |
| Osmodivs | I have things to do | 14:25 |

| Firefishe | Delrayne: Yes, but it's recommended, especially if it's a windows partition, to completely defrag the drive. | 15:20 |
| Delrayne | also heard that 20GB is more than enough for ubuntu and anything over that is basically a waste..is that accurate? | 15:20 |
| Delrayne | defrag the drive? please explain. Cause its a vista partition | 15:20 |
| klj613 | folder permissions ignoring the group permissions? -.- | 15:21 |
| G0R | Delrayne: 20GB should be fine for root partition | 15:21 |
| edbian | Delrayne: Well the actual OS would be fine in 10Gb. 20 would never get filled. But that doesnt' count your personal files like music and videos and stuff | 15:21 |

| frodo_ax | @ikonia yes you are right | 17:05 |

| absolute_zero | @ikonia the last time this happened (a few days ago), sudo fsck/dev/sdaX solved it | 17:08 |
| ikonia | absolute_zero: ok - so the problem is the init program cannot be seen by grub, there are 3 possabilities, 1.) grub is looking at the wrong disk 2.) grub is looking at the right disk and it has a problem (raid disk not assembled for example) 3.) you have deleted init from that drive or it has been corrupted | 17:09 |
| ikonia | absolute_zero: you need to work out which one of those 3 situations has happened to you, then a resolution plan can be made | 17:09 |
| joshp1 | frodo_ax I found this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102 | 17:09 |

| ikonia | guitar_dave: right click - then make shortcut | 17:10 |
| dr_willis | absolute_zero, you could start with fscking the filesystem again from a live cd.. i have to wonder why your fs keeps getting messed up however.. | 17:10 |
| dr_willis | absolute_zero, it may be a sign of hard drive hardware issues. | 17:10 |

| aphistic | hey, i just did an upgrade from 9.04 -> 9.10 -> 10.04 LTS and I'm having a problem with update-manager-core in dpkg, every time i try to install an updated version i get "dpkg: ../../src/archives.c:763: tarobject: Assertion `r == stab.st_size' failed." and then it aborts | 18:57 |
| winux | @ShawnRisk whatever.. wait i m gonna find the right driver for your printer | 18:57 |
| aphistic | i've tried apt-get clean && apt-get update && apt-get upgrade, i've tried manually installing a package i downloaded from the packages site and it all fails the same way. | 18:58 |
| ShawnRisk | winux: thanks | 18:58 |
| winux | @ShawnRisk http://brother-hl-5250dn-br-script-1-0-printer-driver.downloadaces.com/download/ | 18:58 |
| winux | Shawn : this is script 1.0 | 18:58 |
| winux | it may works | 18:58 |
| zamba | i need a file sharing protocol that works fine over the internet for streaming | 18:59 |
| oscar | @aphistic it's hard to back up your information and try a clean installation? | 18:59 |
| zamba | and i need to be able to mount it | 18:59 |
| zamba | kind of like sshfs, but without the overhead | 18:59 |
| winux | ohh sorry this is exe | 18:59 |
| ShawnRisk | winux: yes but it says 3 so I am more than lucky using 3 now. | 18:59 |
| winux | lol | 18:59 |
| zamba | samba would be nice, but you have to forward so many ports for it to work | 18:59 |
| aphistic | oscar: it's hours of work to restore it but it's available as a last resort | 18:59 |
| winux | oki doki sec.. | 18:59 |
| zamba | nfs uses random ports through the port mapper, so that's not usable either | 18:59 |
| aphistic | i was hoping it was a known package problem because i didn't seem to have a problem installing a new dpkg package | 19:00 |

| dr_willis | shane2peru, sounds like the kind of thing a perls script proberly exists for... | 19:18 |

| dr_willis | is one temp fix | 19:46 |
| rockenrola | How can I tell which network interface a service is listening to? | 19:47 |
| yossef | hi, I've just installed redshift but it doesn't work | 19:48 |
| shane2peru | dr_willis: unfortunately, it colordiff doesn't export as html. :( I'm going to have to look for a script I guess. | 19:48 |
| dajhorn | rockenrola: Try `netstat -lntp` and `netstat -lnup` | 19:49 |
| dr_willis | shane2peru, the power of perl! :) | 19:49 |
| dr_willis | html diff output.. may be a bit hard to read... | 19:49 |
| dr_willis | you would want it monospaced anyway.. so why html :) | 19:49 |
| dr_willis | nattty, other artical on it --> http://askubuntu.com/questions/11406/gnome-settings-daemon-doesnt-apply-themes-unless-i-kill-it-and-start-it-manuall | 19:50 |
| shane2peru | dr_willis: perhaps, but I barely do bash | 19:50 |
| kfizz | If I have my router set to DMZ my computer's static LAN IP shouldn't I see a looot of ports when I nmap localhost? | 19:50 |
| dr_willis | shane2peru, should i mention. that I do recall there being some gui diff front ends... | 19:50 |
| rockenrola | dajhorn: is shows: tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:8651 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 867/gmetad | 19:50 |
| shane2peru | dr_willis: I'm doing large docs and want to compare the differences, a long study, so I want a universal format, as for the gui right there is kompare, and tkdiff both decent. | 19:50 |
| nattty | dr_willis, thanks | 19:50 |
| dajhorn | rockenrola: The 0.0.0.0 means that gmetad is listening on all interfaces, port 8651. | 19:51 |
| nattty | I think i'll try that one -- i can't understand what this script is trying to do. | 19:51 |
| shane2peru | dr_willis: here we go: http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/convert-diff-output-colorized-html and it is even bash. :) | 19:51 |
| rockenrola | ok, thanks. Then the problem is somewhere else | 19:51 |
| dr_willis | shane2peru, large docs.. ok. :) i just use diff for config files | 19:51 |
| dr_willis | shane2peru, i do recall some gui diff front end.. but cant find it now. | 19:51 |
| shane2peru | dr_willis: right, this is more of a long term study, not a quick config fix | 19:51 |
| xarvh | Hi, any clue ofr why gnome-volume-control cant's start "Waiting for sound system to respond"? I found several bug reports, but can't unmute my PC with alsamixer... =( | 19:51 |
| l3d | what will convert a avi file to one that can be played on cellphone running android ? | 19:52 |
| shane2peru | dr_willis: kompare and tkdiff are the two front end guis I found and tried. both decent, but I want a generic format that I can use anywhere | 19:52 |
| dr_willis | tk! old skool :) | 19:53 |

| nemanja | hi, I have a problem | 19:53 |
| dajhorn | l3d: My favorite is handbrake.fr, which is available through a PPA. It has presets for mobile devices. | 19:53 |
| dr_willis | l3d, my android phone can play most anything i toss at it - with the right player.. there are converteres out.. winff with the right presets works well. arista also works well | 19:54 |
| nemanja | can'T wriTe small T, I run Terminal all The Time - anyone has idea how To repair? Thank you! | 19:54 |
| dr_willis | l3d, the main trick is to realize the 'default' video player for android is a bit limited. :) moboplayer, i find can play most everything. | 19:55 |
| kfizz | If I have my router set to DMZ my computer's static LAN IP shouldn't I see a looot of ports when I nmap localhost? | 19:55 |
| Delrayne | alright, so I'm at the screen where it says 'try without installing' etc...and I press enter to try it, and then my monitor goes black, I hear the ubuntu start up sound, so its loading up, i just need a way to get my monitor to work with it....any ideas? | 19:55 |
| amoskong | nemanja: reset ? | 19:55 |
| rww | kfizz: nmapping localhost would be completely unaffected by router DMZ settings | 19:55 |
| dr_willis | kfizz, nmaping localhost.. wouldent matter on the router at all.. and nmap would show ports that respond.. no servers listening.. would mean nothing responds.. | 19:55 |
| nemanja | how? I ran scripT : gconftool-2 -t string -s /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_4 "<Ctrl%gt;%lt;Shift>t" gconftool-2 -t string -s /apps/metacity/keybinding_commands/command_4 "xterm" | 19:55 |
| nemanja | And now I do noT know how To repair iT | 19:56 |
| dr_willis | nemanja, does the Console also have the same tT issue? | 19:56 |
| Arm0ur | \part | 19:56 |
| nemanja | yepp | 19:56 |
| dr_willis | nemanja, if the console also does it.. that almost sounds like a hardware issue.. You tried a live cd yet to see if it is also affecting a 'clean' live cd setup? | 19:57 |

| l3d | ok but i need to make the vid as small as possible due to small sdcard and when use winff the mobile phone presets is mp3 | 19:58 |
| kfizz | rww, dr_willis, how would I enable remote desktop viewing? I've enabled it via System -> Prefs -> Remote Desktop and I've selected "allow other users to control your desktop" and it says only users on the LAN can access my computer (which is fine) but it says to use the address localhost, shouldn't that be my static IP? | 19:58 |
| dr_willis | l3d, winff has presets i use all the time.. 1/2 hr show = 30mb or so.. but dont expect the video it makes to look good on anything except the phone. | 19:58 |
| ikonia | l3d: work out what formats your phone supports, then research which format offers the better compression | 19:59 |
| kfizz | And shouldn't enabling Desktop Viewing show port 5900 as listening when I nmap? | 19:59 |
| nattty | dr_willis, it worked: killall gnome-settings-daemon, then restart it | 19:59 |
| dr_willis | a 4gb sd card can hold a lot of shows at 60mb an hr.. :) | 19:59 |
| hexacode | hey you guys, how do i start a program in a terminal that doesnt close when i close the terminal ...for example i killed nm-applet and then restarted it by typing "nm-applet" in terminal...when i close the terminal, nm-applet also closes. how do i stop this behavior? | 19:59 |
| dr_willis | hexacode, use & or nohup and DONT use the terminal close button. use the 'exit' command | 19:59 |
| dr_willis | hexacode, ie --> 'programname &' then 'exit' | 20:00 |

| cIclops | hi .. can I run wubi from a Live CD on a machine with no net access under windows? | 20:05 |
| kroq-gar78 | cIclops: wubi is purely a method of install. You can run Ubuntu off a LiveCD, and you can INSTALL it in windows | 20:06 |
| laserdude | Ahh, thanks for the point, ikonia: I have tried to use b43-fwcutter to install a Broadcom driver, but following the instructions on the docs page utterly failed to bring up anything on Additional Drivers. | 20:06 |
| ikonia | laserdude: additional drivers would be from ones available within the ubuntu repos | 20:06 |
| ikonia | laserdude: what's the actual problem you're having | 20:06 |
| dr_willis | nemanja, you can use the gconf editor too delete any settings you maid. | 20:07 |
| dr_willis | nemanja, run 'gconf-editor' | 20:07 |

| leeech_ | i dont think so | 20:08 |
| ikonia | nemanja: can you please try to type normally without random captial letters please. | 20:08 |
| dr_willis | nemanja, its not that hard a program to use.,. it shows a directory layout thats identical to the words used in your script --> /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/ | 20:08 |
| leeech_ | but i though i would ask | 20:08 |
| cIclops | kroq-gar78, hi ... ubuntu 10.10 hangs when i try to run it from the Live CD, i see wubi.exe under windows but it wants to download the installation and the machine has no net access | 20:08 |
| dr_willis | leeech_, use some other desktop.. | 20:08 |
| dr_willis | !classic | leeech_ | 20:08 |
| ubottu | leeech_: The default interface in Ubuntu 11.04 is !Unity. To switch back to regular !GNOME: log out, click your username, click the Session box at the bottom of the screen, and select "Ubuntu Classic". | 20:08 |

| dr_willis | kaellan, you mean the password to get to X.. or some keyring dialog when you are logged in? | 20:09 |
| leeech_ | thanks ubottu | 20:09 |
| dr_willis | leeech_, use gnome classic. or some other window manager | 20:09 |
| laserdude | I need to install my driver, and having installed fwcutter and the driver packages, just like it said in the docs, and then restarted my computer, no drivers turned up in the Additional Drivers dialog, which was supposed to have a Bradcom driver in there. | 20:09 |
| ikonia | laserdude: is the card visible | 20:09 |
| kroq-gar78 | cIclops: what do you want to do? you want ot install wubi? if you want to, get the .iso image that you downloaded (if you made the livecd yourself) and then put it in the same directory as the wubi installer (copy it from the CD to the Desktop or My Docs) | 20:09 |
| sabine | nick sabono | 20:10 |
| laserdude | ikonia, what do you mean? | 20:10 |
| === sabine is now known as sabono | ||
| oCean | saliak: I think it's only SMTP auth plain, no ssl | 20:10 |
| ikonia | laserdude: can your OS see the card | 20:10 |
| sabono | hi, i cant start firefox. it says already running. even after reboot. | 20:10 |
| scoates | I'm looking for an active mirror for Jaunty (old box, out of date).. the ones I've checked have hardy and karmic, but are missing jaunty and.. i*. Any pointers? | 20:10 |
| kroq-gar78 | cIclops: then, run it. But, if it doesn't work in LiveCD, the chances are slim for it to work on WUBI | 20:10 |
| hexacode | ? | 20:10 |
| sabono | it is not running | 20:10 |
| Polah | cIclops, I'd recommend installing in an actual partition, not wubi. Perhaps your iso is corrupt or incomplete, or you could have an improper burn on the disc. | 20:10 |
| Chilaquiles | hey guys I'm trying to remember how can I fix grub2 after I boot the computer using the ubuntu CD, I thought I used grub-update, but it doesn't work. | 20:11 |
| Polah | scoates: The jaunty repos are closed | 20:11 |
| cIclops | kroq-gar78, i want to do wubi install using the live CD .. i do not have the iso image | 20:11 |
| kroq-gar78 | Polah: how would a partition help? | 20:11 |
| Chilaquiles | Somebody that can help me with it? | 20:11 |
| Polah | chilaquiles: Do install it? | 20:11 |
| scoates | Polah: right; I was hoping for one that hasn't yet purged the files | 20:11 |
| Polah | kroq-gar78: I'm just saying installing Ubuntu in it's own partition rather than through Windows would be better. | 20:11 |
| ikonia | !grub2 > Chilaquiles | 20:11 |
| ubottu | Chilaquiles, please see my private message | 20:11 |
| kaellan | dr_willis: I made BIOS password so want ubuntu to login automatic to boot faster :) | 20:11 |
| laserdude | It does not show up in the Connections drop down, but it does when i run the command lspci -vvnn | grep 14e4. | 20:12 |
| kroq-gar78 | cIclops: as polah said, the iso that made the CD might have been corrupt. If you don't want to re-download, you can try to make an iso image out of the CD that you already have | 20:12 |
| Delrayne | I need a bit of help with my monitor...the colors I'm seeing are a bright green and neon pink...even firefoxe's white background is showing up pinkish. Anyone have any ideas? | 20:12 |
| ikonia | laserdude: if you do "sudo iwconfig" do you see a device with wireless connections | 20:12 |
| Polah | cIclops: You can md5sum the iso you have to see if it's complete | 20:12 |
| ikonia | laserdude: sorry wireless extensions | 20:12 |
| kroq-gar78 | Polah: from what I've heard, it's VERY hard to remove a real install of Ubuntu (a partition | 20:12 |
| kroq-gar78 | Polah: he doesn't have the iso | 20:12 |
| w30 | sabono, try looking for a file called lock in /home/youruser/.mozilla/firefox/abunchofnumbers | 20:13 |
| Polah | kroq-gar78: It's not difficult at all, you can just wipe the partition. It's incredibly simple, in fact. | 20:13 |
| Delrayne | im on a live cd, and hooked to a monitor via HDMI | 20:13 |
| Polah | kroq-gar78: What does he have then? | 20:13 |
| laserdude | No, only the connection I have right now. | 20:13 |
| Polah | Delrayne: Try changing the colour temperatures for your monitor. | 20:13 |
| w30 | sabono, remove that file called lock | 20:13 |
| ikonia | laserdude: ok - so you need to see if the kernel module is on your system, it should be called $something.ko (you can get that info from the guide you where using) search your system for that file | 20:13 |
| ubuntufreak21 | how do i get sweet home 3d to work on ubuntu? | 20:13 |
| kroq-gar78 | Polah: HE only has CD. It's hard for me cuz I should keep windoz cuz i payed for it | 20:13 |
| cIclops | kroq-gar78, i have no way to make an iso and xfer to the machine .. all i have is the liveCD ... is there no way that wubi can read the liveCD instead of the iso image? | 20:13 |
| kroq-gar78 | *slaps self on head* | 20:14 |
| Delrayne | Polah: where would I go for that exactly? | 20:14 |
| kroq-gar78 | cIclops: you can try to make an iso out of the CD, but I'm not sure if you can make WUBI read off of fCD | 20:14 |
| Polah | Delrayne: System > Administration, then something like Nvidia X server settings, Display settings or something along those lines. | 20:14 |
| Delrayne | thanks | 20:15 |
| Solto | hi | 20:15 |
| ubuntufreak21 | Hello | 20:15 |
| hexacode | problem you guys....i like my terminals color coding...however, sometimes i need to pipe a command through 'more' or 'less' , but when i do, the color coding goes away....for example...if i go into a directory with many files and need to do an "ls -la" i have to actually do "ls -la | [more | less]" because the output is too long...how do i get my color codes | 20:15 |
| Solto | i have great problems wiht instlling mysql on ubuntu | 20:15 |
| Chilaquiles | ikonia: I had to use only one command to fix the grub, the page that you gave me doesn't have that command. | 20:15 |
| Polah | Delrayne: Your actual monitor menu might have colour temperatures settings in it as well | 20:15 |
| Solto | can anybody help? | 20:15 |
| Polah | kroq-gar78: What do you mean he only has the CD? How did he make the CD without the ISO? | 20:15 |
| oCean | Solto: just describe your issue (detailed) in single line, here in the channel | 20:15 |
| ikonia | Chilaquiles: that page tells you how to actually fix grub, rather than how "you" think you fix grub | 20:15 |
| laserdude | ikonia, Nope, nothing there. | 20:15 |
| ubuntufreak21 | how do get 3d acceleration to work with my 3d applications | 20:15 |
| laserdude | Maybe | 20:15 |
| ikonia | laserdude: that's the issue then, the driver didn't get built | 20:15 |
| sabono | w30, yes, it worked. thanks!! | 20:15 |
| Chilaquiles | ikonia: but I fixed it in the past with just one command | 20:16 |
| kroq-gar78 | Polah: probably his/her friend or somebody burned the iso and gave him/her the CD | 20:16 |
| Polah | Solto: What problems. | 20:16 |
| laserdude | * is the wildcard character in the find files dialog, right? | 20:16 |
| kaellan | is there anny program for ubuntu that can handle multible webcams and save to ftp server? :) | 20:16 |
| ikonia | Chilaquiles: that page tells you how to actually fix grub | 20:16 |
| cIclops | kroq-gar78, yes, that's where i am stuck .. the liveCD has everything needed but is in the wron format? maybe there are swiches fior wubi like the --skipmemorycheck | 20:16 |
| ikonia | laserdude: what is the kernel module called | 20:16 |
| Chilaquiles | ikonia: plus, I remember doing what the page says to fixed the grub and it didn't fix my problems | 20:16 |
| Polah | kroq-gar78, cIclops, from the LiveCD not booting it definitely sounds like either a corrupt burn or a corrupt ISO. Redownload the ISO and burn another disc or download it and extract it onto a flash drive to boot from | 20:17 |
| ubuntufreak21 | may i have help please? | 20:17 |
| Solto | Polah: I installed mysql-server and i cannot connect to it. Keep getting ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) | 20:17 |
| ubuntufreak21 | why dont just put it on usb | 20:17 |
| Polah | Solto: What command are you using to connect? | 20:17 |
| kroq-gar78 | cIclops: lemme google. If you hav internet right now, could you download another ISO? it might solve your problem | 20:17 |
| kroq-gar78 | (s) | 20:17 |
| nemanja | @dr_willis: thank you very much, I deleted the commands and values I sat, and I turned it off - The biggest problem is that I did not know how to open the editor! Thanks once again :) tttttt :) | 20:17 |
| ikonia | Chilaquiles: first you've not even told us how it's broke so we can't give you "a command" second if you read the page you'll see there are many different senarios with different commands, you select the one that matches your issue | 20:17 |

| laserdude | ikonia, I didn't find one. | 20:18 |
| saliak | oCean - so my emails are getting stuck in the outgoing queue. do you know where it logs errors/warnings/debug info? | 20:18 |
| ikonia | uinunkgurl: sorry, I meant that for you | 20:18 |
| ikonia | laserdude: then thats the issue, the driver is not being built/installed onto your system | 20:18 |
| uinunkgurl | ikonia, ok, thanks. | 20:18 |
| Polah | uinunkgurl: If you go to your wireless connection settings and change it from DHCP (Automatic) to Manual you'll be able to set IP address, gateway and mask as well as primary and secondary DNS. | 20:18 |

| Delrayne | Polah: for future reference if anyone has that problem, tell them to set their monitor to RGB | 20:19 |
| Solto | Polah: i tried to set password with: mysql -u root -p password and still getting that error | 20:19 |
| Polah | Ubuntufreak21: Hmm, I don't know about Intel graphics support on Ubuntu. You'd be best waiting for someone else | 20:19 |
| ikonia | Chilaquiles: how/why does it not boot - what is the error | 20:19 |
| laserdude | ikonia, so how might I fix this problem? | 20:19 |
| Polah | Solto: No, don't define the password, just do mysql -u <username> -p, it'll prompt you after. Similar to how sudo prompts you | 20:20 |
| saliak | oCean - yeah. boo. nothing in the logs. mailq just shows stuff sitting there | 20:20 |
| dr_willis | Chilaquiles, if windiows is on its own disk. you shoudl be able to boot that hard drive via the bios/menus. | 20:20 |
| Chilaquiles | ikonia: I had windows 7 installed but now I installed Windows xp | 20:20 |
| nemanja | @ikonia: sorry about the uper case letters, I had a probem being unable to write lower case ones | 20:20 |
| cIclops | Polah, kroq-gar78 .. thanks, i only have access via the liveCD for various ridiculous reasons .. if i can't use that then i'll have to quit for now .. hey its summertime! | 20:20 |
| ikonia | laserdude: investigate why the guide you are using is not building/installing the kernel module | 20:20 |
| ikonia | nemanja: not a problem | 20:20 |
| almoxarife | Ubuntufreak21: ubuntu does support intel graphics | 20:20 |
| oCean | saliak: nothing in the logs.. they're empty? | 20:20 |
| saliak | oCean - yeah. | 20:20 |
| ubuntufreak21 | i just installed ubuntu with a usb stick | 20:20 |
| Polah | Delrayne: Ah, was it set to a different colour model? I've not seen options to change colour model before, just temperatures for RGB. | 20:20 |
| oCean | saliak: how do you send mail? | 20:21 |
| saliak | oCean - well, since i install nullmailer. lots of crap from postfix and sendmail | 20:21 |
| Chilaquiles | dr_willis: yeah, but I will have to change the configuration every time I want to boot win xp | 20:21 |
| kroq-gar78 | cIclops: sorry I couldn't help, but as Polto said it's prob a corrupt image. Summer = freedom! | 20:21 |
| Polah | cIclops: Can you not get access to another disk and the ISO to verify and reburn it? | 20:21 |
| dr_willis | Chilaquiles, my pc's do it with F10, select the hd.. done... | 20:21 |

| Delrayne | Polah: yeah was in Yb...something or another. I bought it from someone for ten bucks so no telling what they had it set to. | 20:21 |
| kaellan | is there anny cpu / gpu / ram moitor like in windows system monitor for ubuntu? | 20:21 |
| saliak | oCean - so apt-get remove sendmail and postfix? | 20:21 |
| Chilaquiles | dr_willis: what is the name of the option of F10? | 20:21 |
| kaellan | monitor* | 20:21 |
| ubuntufreak21 | and install multiboot | 20:21 |
| dr_willis | Chilaquiles, ubuntu and its os-prober feature of grub2 should see the xp install.. | 20:21 |
| almoxarife | does foo ever answer his/her mail? | 20:22 |
| Polah | Delrayne: CMYK is probably what you mean | 20:22 |
| oCean | saliak: try echo test | sendmail foot@bar.com (this /sbin/sendmail is from the nullmailer package) | 20:22 |
| dr_willis | Chilaquiles, seelct boot disk. or somthing like that.. on one pc its F10, on my laptop its F12 | 20:22 |
| kroq-gar78 | Chilaquiles: boot menu | 20:22 |
| dr_willis | Chilaquiles, yes. my laptop has 2 hard drives. :) | 20:22 |
| Solto | Polah: i tried that also...same error... | 20:22 |
| oCean | saliak: when you're sure you want to remove the others, use apt-get purge and not apt-get remove. The purge will also remove configuration files | 20:22 |
| ubuntufreak21 | it is made for just about any iso | 20:22 |
| Delrayne | Polah: Y was definitely the first letter...look something tv's have when your switching through the inputs from hdmi,svideo, etc.. | 20:22 |
| kaellan | Chilaquiles: in bios u can change to boot from cd if you dont find the boot option button :P | 20:23 |
| Solto | Polah: I checked all possible forums for solution...and i can't resolve it | 20:23 |
| saliak | oCean - yeah, they seem to be removed right now. ahh, ok, got an error in the log finally | 20:23 |
| oCean | saliak: aha, one step further :) | 20:23 |
| Chilaquiles | dr_willis: hey you're right I could do that, thanks. Screw grub | 20:23 |
| dr_willis | :) | 20:23 |
| Polah | kaellan: GNOME system monitor has network/CPU monitoring. If you open a terminal and run the top command it'll give you CPU usage, memory usage and system load. Install ifstat and run it to get network throughput statistics. I don't know about any GPU monitors. | 20:23 |
| Chilaquiles | thanks dr_willis!! | 20:23 |
| Polah | Solto: It keeps saying (Using Password: NO)? | 20:24 |
| Polah | Solto: Even when you do define one? | 20:24 |
| ubuntufreak21 | i had no os and i figured out how to install ubuntu to harddrive by deleting windows7 and making ubuntu default os | 20:24 |
| zertyui | hello there | 20:24 |
| ubuntufreak21 | with just a usb stick | 20:24 |
| zertyui | any hardware expert here ? | 20:24 |
| Chilaquiles | I remember I used one command for fixing grub2, its ridiculous | 20:24 |
| ubuntufreak21 | it is the easiest solution | 20:24 |
| Polah | ubuntufreak21, no need to remove Windows to install Ubuntu. | 20:24 |
| saliak | oCean - ok,had to set theport to 26. now just have incorrect auth data. hopefully just a typo | 20:25 |
| Polah | !ask | zertyui | 20:25 |
| ubottu | zertyui: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 20:25 |
| Solto | Polah: just then...when i define ona, says Yes, and right after it says No again | 20:25 |
| ikonia | Chilaquiles: how is it not booting | 20:25 |
| Maestro | does anyone here know what repository I'll have to add in order to be able to install gcc/g++ 4.0 with apt-get? | 20:25 |
| oCean | zertyui: better try ##hardware channel for hardware questions | 20:25 |
| zertyui | ok i installed ubuntu on macbook 13, my mac don't want to boot | 20:25 |
| Polah | Solto: So when you use mysql -u root -p and then type the password when prompted it says it's using the password but still fails to connect? Are you sure you're entering the correct password, you should've been asked to define the password when installing mysql. | 20:25 |
| ubuntufreak21 | i know i accidentally ran through recover mode and set my partition to factory defaults lol | 20:25 |
| kroq-gar78 | Maestro: do you know what version is in the repos? isn | 20:26 |
| zertyui | so reboot my macbook on ubuntu livecd | 20:26 |
| ubuntufreak21 | but i turned hard and cold and whohaaa haa haa!! | 20:26 |
| zertyui | the problem is when i do fdisk -l there is nothing appearing is that normal ? | 20:26 |
| bjhaid | hi, I was trying to update my ubuntu 10.10, while the update was going on a friend shutdown the computer, and now when i start it up, it shows the log in screen, but the mouse pad and keyboard does not function, please I need help | 20:26 |
| ubuntufreak21 | there solved the problem | 20:26 |
| kaellan | Polah: thx, damn smooth cpu usage on ubuntu :D | 20:26 |
| dr_willis | zertyui, sudo fdisk -l | 20:26 |
| Maestro | kroq-gar78: I've found down to 4.1, but I need some earlier versions as well | 20:26 |
| Solto | Polah: i wasn't asked for password when i installed mysql.... Is it possible that this is the problem? | 20:26 |
| ubuntufreak21 | hey turn on your keyboard button | 20:26 |
| syslq_ | How is unity brw? | 20:27 |
| cIclops | Polah, the image was good it installed on another machine ... the problem may be the target machine - an old Dell Dimension L500c | 20:27 |
| ubuntufreak21 | you might hit the mousepad button | 20:27 |
| ubuntufreak21 | just turn it on | 20:27 |
| Polah | Solto: That's strange, I recall when I installed mysql-server it prompted me for a username and password for a master account, as well as asking me to define the hostname. | 20:27 |
| zertyui | yes dr_willis | 20:27 |
| zertyui | still working | 20:27 |
| kroq-gar78 | Maestro: NOT SUGGESTED METHOD: going to the ubuntu package pool (google "ubuntu pool") and look for the version you want. man, the mods here are going to kill me now. im pretty sure that's unsupported, so don | 20:28 |
| kroq-gar78 | 't do it | 20:28 |
| Polah | cIclops: That's only got 256MB of RAM, right? That's very low, would explain why it doesn't want to run properly. | 20:28 |
| Maestro | lol | 20:28 |
| ubuntufreak21 | anyone here know about 3D graphics acceleration configuration | 20:28 |
| Maestro | I'm not gonna do it, kroq-gar78 ;) | 20:28 |
| kroq-gar78 | Maestro: :) | 20:28 |
| kroq-gar78 | ;) | 20:29 |
| tiox | I'm getting this: hub 2-1.4:1.0: connect-debounce failed, port 2 disabled | 20:29 |
| saliak | oCean - sweet! got it. how do you empty your outgoing mail queue? | 20:29 |
| tiox | How can I fix this issue? | 20:29 |
| cIclops | Polah, insteresting that you said that ... i just upgraded it to 192MB :) | 20:29 |
| szal | Maestro: why do you need that anyway, and for what distro exactly? | 20:29 |
| Polah | cIclops: I just did a quick google and saw 256MB, 192MB is even worse though | 20:29 |
| tiox | It's clogging my dmesg, and I think it's a worrisome threat to my memory to have this error reproduced over and over again. | 20:29 |
| bjhaid | I was trying to update my ubuntu 10.10, while theupdate was going on a friend shutdown the computer, and now when i start itup, it shows the log in screen, but the mouse pad and keyboard does not work, i cannot get to log-in, please I need help | 20:29 |
| ubuntufreak21 | (whimper) this is boring | 20:30 |
| kroq-gar78 | cIclops: IF the problem is RAM size, use the alternate install CD or even the mini install cd | 20:30 |
| szal | Maestro: gcc 4.0 was 2005, iirc, and I somehow doubt that any such pkgs still run trouble-free | 20:30 |
| kaellan | i notice my screen is giving me tiny flashes wen running flash games. normal or i got somthing done wrong? | 20:30 |
| Solto | Polah: i solved it | 20:30 |
| tiox | kaellan: Normal under certain circumstances. | 20:30 |
| Polah | kroq-gar78, if he can't reburn a disc then he can't get the alternate or minimal ISOs to boot from anyway | 20:30 |
| Maestro | szal: it's a legacy project, trust me it's old stuff | 20:30 |
| Solto | Polah: it was default pasword 'password' lol | 20:30 |
| kroq-gar78 | Polah: you're right :/ | 20:30 |
| dr_willis | tiox, theres a /etc/sysctl.conf setting taht can tone down the messages.. but that message may be becuase of some falty usb hardware | 20:30 |
| daubers | lo | 20:30 |
| ubuntufreak21 | I thought this support chat was supposed to agree almost with everybody! | 20:30 |
| Polah | Solto: Oh. Strange that it never prompted for one during install. | 20:31 |
| cIclops | Polah ...ok then i'll try that, thanks for helping! | 20:31 |
| zertyui | anyone there ? | 20:31 |
| zertyui | i just want to make sure that the disk is working finely | 20:31 |
| zertyui | or not ? | 20:31 |
| zertyui | how to check that ? | 20:31 |
| kroq-gar78 | zertyui: which disk: the Ubuntu LiveCD? | 20:31 |
| ubuntufreak21 | helllllppppp!!! | 20:31 |
| dr_willis | zertyui, clarify the question. | 20:31 |
| ubuntufreak21 | grrrrr!!!! | 20:31 |
| h00k | !patience | ubuntufreak21 | 20:31 |
| ubottu | ubuntufreak21: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 20:31 |
| zertyui | no hard disk kroq-gar78 | 20:31 |
| Polah | zertyui: Hold shift while booting from the CD and it'll give you a menu, select "Verify disk integrity" or something along those lines. | 20:31 |
| zertyui | internal hard disk | 20:32 |
| kroq-gar78 | zertyui: i guess it does then :) just loading ubuntu should check that | 20:32 |
| zertyui | seems you don't understand | 20:32 |
| tiox | I'll give a look when booting into a live session from disk later. I've recently removed unity/ubuntu-desktop and downgraded Compiz, but additionally, ever since I did that, it's taling longer for my machine to post, the BIOS is slowed and it takes a hell of a lot longer to boot into ubuntu. | 20:32 |
| zertyui | let me explain you again | 20:32 |
| kroq-gar78 | zertyui: yeah i dont :( | 20:32 |
| szal | Maestro: Breezy (5.10) came w/ gcc 4.0.1, perhaps you're lucky to find a download source, you could install that in a VM | 20:33 |
| Polah | zertyui: System > Administration > Disk Utility, select "SMART Data" and then "Run Self Test". | 20:33 |
| tiox | It could be faulty hardware if things are affecting my BIOS. | 20:33 |
| kroq-gar78 | Polah: ah that's what he's saying... | 20:33 |
| szal | Maestro: and Dapper (6.06 LTS) had 4.0.3 | 20:33 |
| dr_willis | tiox, yep. Nothing in ubuntu shoul dmake the bios be 'slow' (whatever that means exacty) :) | 20:33 |
| tiox | Beaning, the BIOS is laggy, actions are not immediate, BIOS has slow refresh/draw rate, and it's taking longer to get past the boot splash. | 20:34 |
| bjhaid | I was trying to update my ubuntu 10.10, while theupdatewas going on a friend shutdown the computer, and now when i start itup, itshows the log in screen, but the mouse pad and keyboard does not work, i cannot get to log-in, please I need help | 20:34 |
| kroq-gar78 | bjhaid | 20:34 |
| lucas__ | I have a problem on Lubuntu. After update to 11.04 outologin was disabled. And I cannot untick one users management app | 20:34 |
| ikonia | bjhaid: we got the message, please stop spamming it, if someone knows and wants to help, they will | 20:34 |
| dr_willis | bjhaid, safest thing to do . is use live cd. backup impiorntant data. do a clean ionsatgll | 20:34 |
| zertyui | well, on my macbook i got ubuntu lucid on dualboot with macosx the problem is my hard disk don't want to boot my OS i got a black screen no error, i don't even know what happen so what i have done is i just start to boot from a ubuntu livecd | 20:34 |
| zertyui | to make that all partition existing or on my internal hard disk | 20:35 |
| g[r]eek | Hi. I've just upgrade my ubuntu desktop from 10.10 to 11.04. I don't like the new interface. How do I switch back to the classic look? | 20:35 |
| kroq-gar78 | bjhaid: probably a corrupt upgrade (something liek that). do control-alt-f1, log in, and type "sudo dpkg --configure -a" | 20:35 |
| tiox | But, the BIOS still saves settings to CMOS, and everything still runs. | 20:35 |
| g[r]eek | Also my sound is working | 20:35 |
| zertyui | i have done an sudo fdisk -l | 20:35 |
| tiox | I just have to unplug my USB devices, and plug them in at runtime. | 20:35 |
| kaellan | hmm, my screen is flashing from time to time realy fast hardly notice buth still. using NvidiaGforce GTX 460M and im using the nvidia drivers from the programcentral. is i bter to get the ones from nvidia or is it the same ? | 20:35 |
| zertyui | the problem is after one hour that command is still runing and it display nothing | 20:35 |
| kroq-gar78 | g[r]eek: log out. at the bottom, there should be something saying "ubuntu" click on that and select "ubuntu classic" log back in and you're fine | 20:36 |
| dr_willis | zeroedout, i would have to wonder if the hard disk is dead then. | 20:36 |
| zertyui | so what i want i make sure is, my internal is in failure or not want to check ? | 20:36 |
| tiox | I'm going to do something. My fan frozed my PC (Down to the kernel level!) when I unplugged it. | 20:36 |
| zertyui | how to do ? | 20:36 |
| dr_willis | zertyui, , i would have to wonder if the hard disk is dead then. | 20:36 |
| tiox | Alright, no issues so far... | 20:36 |
| tiox | Weird. | 20:36 |
| dr_willis | zertyui, fdisk -l should return info real quick | 20:37 |
| zertyui | well that 's simply my question | 20:37 |
| zertyui | how to check my disk is dead or not ? | 20:37 |
| dr_willis | fdisk -l not showing any info about it.. is a good sign its dead.. | 20:37 |
| zertyui | fdisk -l not working on my system dr_willis | 20:37 |
| szal | Maestro: http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/CDs/6.06/ | 20:37 |
| dr_willis | take it out.. put it in a usb enclosuer.. plug it in some other box.. see if it spins up. | 20:37 |
| tiox | Same here doc. | 20:37 |
| kroq-gar78 | szal: yay gov't is hosting ubuntu :D | 20:37 |
| dr_willis | ive seen disks start worksing when jostled.. | 20:37 |
| BluesKaj | kaellan, use the recommended nvidia drivers in sys >admin >addtional drivers | 20:38 |
| nixNcode | hi, i want to move the top panel to top right corner while having it EXPAND property to FALSE | 20:38 |
| tiox | Doc, doc, listen buddy. | 20:38 |
| tiox | Oh wait, is this WIndows? | 20:38 |
| tiox | What's fdisk? | 20:38 |
| zertyui | the problem is sata disk i don't have converter to usb dr_willis | 20:38 |
| zertyui | well | 20:38 |
| zertyui | let me finish | 20:38 |
| nixNcode | !panel | 20:38 |
| dr_willis | zertyui, i picked up a all-in-one hd to usb converter the other day. :) | 20:38 |
| zertyui | i have done an dmesg to see if my disk detect or not | 20:39 |
| tiox | Woah... O_O | 20:39 |
| zertyui | where i can see something written toshiba and capacity of my hard disk | 20:40 |
| tiox | I ran cfdisk in my terminal and it gave me this: FATAL ERROR: Cannot open disk drive | 20:40 |
| dr_willis | hard disks are the weakest link in pc's these days it seems... | 20:40 |
| oCean | saliak: isn't it just sendmail -q ? | 20:40 |
| dr_willis | They are often the bottleneck... and seem the least reliable part. | 20:40 |
| kroq-gar78 | dr_willis: yup ;( | 20:41 |
| zertyui | so what is your suggestioN ? | 20:41 |
| dr_willis | get a new hd.... | 20:41 |
| zertyui | that's not a matter | 20:41 |
| zertyui | i simply want to understand the problem | 20:41 |
| zertyui | without using any adapter | 20:42 |
| dr_willis | hd died? whats to understand... | 20:42 |
| w30 | dr_willis, you have admit that they are getting cheap per mb though. | 20:42 |
| dr_willis | w30, yep. I wonder how long a life these sdd's will really have. | 20:42 |
| saliak | oCean : nullmailer doesn't handle -q | 20:42 |
| kroq-gar78 | w30: they're still kinda unreliable | 20:42 |
| zertyui | how can say that my hd died without any analyse ? dr_willis | 20:42 |
| tiox | zertyui: Here's something. | 20:42 |
| === ross is now known as Guest692 | ||
| tiox | Try opening the disk utility and see if it's in there. | 20:43 |
| dr_willis | zertyui, fdisk -l not seeing it.. is a good sign.. do you hear it spin up? does it make loud click clack clunk noises? | 20:43 |
| tiox | Install gparted and see if the disk exists there. | 20:43 |
| zertyui | no there is no noice click clack dr_willis | 20:43 |
| zertyui | well tell me about dmesg | 20:43 |
| === rcmaehl is now known as TheRickAstley | ||
| ikonia | zertyui: your hard disk appears to be dead | 20:43 |
| oCean | saliak: right. | 20:43 |
| zertyui | can we check with dmesg if the disk is dead or not ? | 20:43 |
| ikonia | zertyui: no you can't | 20:43 |
| ikonia | zertyui: your hard disk appears to be dead | 20:44 |
| w30 | the way size of ssd's increase daily they only have to last to upgrade time. | 20:44 |
| dr_willis | it depends on how it died.. | 20:44 |
| === TheRickAstley is now known as rcmaehl | ||
| dr_willis | ive had hds show up and appear with tiotally wrong sizes... | 20:44 |
| zertyui | just only 1 year that i buy my macbook | 20:44 |
| dr_willis | the hd may be under warrenty | 20:44 |
| ikonia | zertyui: hardware does fail | 20:44 |
| zertyui | how can be possible ? | 20:44 |

| noobun2 | hello. im running ubuntu 11 and i cant get my iphone 4 to mount. it mounted when i had a fresh install but after adding updates, the phone no longer mounts. any advice???? thanks. | 20:44 |
| oCean | saliak: maybe when restarting the nullmailer service? | 20:44 |
| zertyui | ikonia: as you don't followed the complete discussion i tell you again | 20:45 |
| dr_willis | we just mentioned how hd's are the weakest link... | 20:45 |
| Hapz | No, the games are not there | 20:45 |
| zertyui | from livecd if i do dmesg | 20:45 |
| muneeb | can anyone tell me how can i move my top panel to TOP RIGHT corner in Ubuntu Classic mode? | 20:45 |
| ikonia | zertyui: it's fine - I don't need to hear it again | 20:45 |
| dr_willis | google did a large study of hd failure rates. | 20:45 |
| zertyui | i can toshiba with the capacity of my hard disk without any failure error | 20:45 |
| dr_willis | muneeb, try alt-click on it and drag it? | 20:45 |
| zertyui | so for me the hard disk is working fine | 20:46 |
| dr_willis | zertyui, You just cant access any data on it? | 20:46 |
| ikonia | zertyui: stop | 20:46 |
| ikonia | zertyui: I said I don't need to hear it again | 20:46 |
| muneeb | dr_willis, nopes.. it didnt work | 20:46 |
| dr_willis | muneeb, i have no idea what you are talking about. :) | 20:46 |
| * dr_willis has the attention span of a newt | 20:47 | |

| kroq-gar78 | lolololololol | 20:47 |
| kroq-gar78 | sry | 20:47 |
| zertyui | i don't like such an answer from your side carrefull | 20:47 |
| kaellan | why is all 64 bit stuff named amd? i got intel 64 bit :S | 20:47 |
| zertyui | ikonia: | 20:47 |
| saliak | oCean : yeah, no luck :( | 20:47 |
| zertyui | how to ignore someone ? | 20:47 |
| muneeb | dr_willis, i want to move my gnome top panel to right corner while the EXPAND property set to false | 20:47 |
| rww | kaellan: because AMD developed the architecture and Intel copied it. | 20:48 |
| ikonia | zertyui: that won't change the fact that your hard disk appears dead, so unless you have some reason to believe it's not dead, you may need to take it to a repair shop | 20:48 |
| kaellan | rww: kk, didnt know and havnt dared to ask annyone befor ^^ | 20:48 |
| zertyui | FIRST LISTEN what i written | 20:48 |
| guntbert | zertyui: ignoring people who tried to help you is not a good idea | 20:48 |
| rww | zertyui: /ignore nicknamehere | 20:48 |
| w30 | kaellan, Intel licenses the dual 32-64 technology from AMD so AMD is the horses mouth | 20:48 |
| ikonia | zertyui: I did read what you said, which is why I'm asking unless you have some reason to believe your hard disk is not dead, you will need to get it to a repair shop or returns | 20:49 |
| ikonia | zertyui: you are telling us the hard disks is not making any sounds, no clicks, and the OS can't see it, at a basic level it appears to be dead. | 20:49 |
| kroq-gar78 | ikonia: maybe cuz he doesn't want to lose all of his data/stuff? | 20:49 |
| ikonia | zertyui: you've told us the disk was usable - now it's not, which suggests it did work, now it doesn't | 20:49 |
| ikonia | zertyui: these things add up to and suggest the disk has died | 20:50 |
| zertyui | ignoring ppl helping i agree not a good idea, ignoring ppl can making others sure | 20:50 |
| ikonia | zertyui: unless you have some other bit of information that you've not told us | 20:50 |
| ikonia | zertyui: do you have any other information to suggest the hard disk is not dead ? | 20:50 |
| zertyui | well now tell me for this question | 20:51 |
| zertyui | why from a live cd if i do dmesg | 20:51 |
| kaellan | the nvidia driver from program central isnt the latest one if looking on nvidia homepage. is the one from program sentral still the "safest" to use cous its tested by someon or is the drivers from nvidi also safe t use i ubunto ? | 20:52 |
| zertyui | why i can see my disk on dmesg ? if it is dead it should not appear | 20:52 |
| kroq-gar78 | kaellan: yeah i noticed this b4. i suggest you use the official ubuntu ones if you want support | 20:52 |
| zertyui | why it appear in my case | 20:52 |
| ikonia | zertyui: can you mount your disk from the live cD ? | 20:52 |
| zertyui | ??? | 20:52 |
| ikonia | zertyui: can you see the disk with "sudo fdisk -l" from the livecd | 20:52 |
| zertyui | no | 20:52 |
| ikonia | zertyui: then you can't see the disk | 20:52 |
| ikonia | zertyui: your disk is dead | 20:53 |

| ikonia | zertyui: then your disk is dead | 20:53 |
| zertyui | listen | 20:53 |
| zertyui | don't skip the step | 20:53 |
| ubuntufreak21 | is there another channel where i can have help? | 20:53 |
| oCean | zertyui: that the system can see the size of the disk does not mean that the integrity of the disk is ok. Small parts of the disk might be broken. That's called 'the disk is dead'. | 20:53 |
| kaellan | kroq-gar78: gor a problem with flashing screen from time to time so im thinking of testing the latest ones to see if it helps :) | 20:53 |
| zertyui | do you read my question | 20:53 |
| ikonia | zertyui: I am listening | 20:53 |
| oCean | zertyui: I answered your question | 20:53 |
| zertyui | why my dmesg show my disk ? | 20:53 |
| ikonia | zertyui: fully read | 20:53 |
| ikonia | zertyui: forget dmesg - you clearly don't know what it does | 20:53 |
| ikonia | zertyui: the disk is dead, accept it, | 20:53 |
| guntbert | zertyui: your disk's built in controller may still work, thats why dmesg shows it | 20:53 |
| kroq-gar78 | kaellan: thing is, the ones from ubuntu are still official nvidia's, but older, and they're almost guaranteed to work with that release of ubunti | 20:54 |
| kroq-gar78 | kaellan: remmeber, im pretty sure no support if u use ones from site | 20:54 |
| zertyui | ok guntbert | 20:54 |
| dee27 | i try mine | 20:54 |
| dee27 | it works | 20:54 |
| usertwo | i just formatted my usb using mkfs.vfat without issue. i copied a file across, which opened. i safely removed the usb and it said writing file to disk. i then reinserted the usb and the file manager shows no files, although the right amount of disk space is being used up. can anyone explain? | 20:55 |
| kaellan | kroq-gar78: i ben gogeling a bit and found out others with GTX 460m got the same prblem and there is no given solution ^^ | 20:55 |
| zertyui | why there is no information something like disk in failure or something else | 20:55 |
| zertyui | where can get athat information | 20:55 |
| zertyui | ? | 20:55 |
| guntbert | dee27: ?? | 20:55 |
| ikonia | zertyui: you can't | 20:55 |
| dee27 | my disk is working | 20:55 |
| kroq-gar78 | kaellan: i suggest making bkup of ur system b4 u do it | 20:55 |
| dee27 | don a diagnostic | 20:55 |
| dee27 | do* | 20:55 |
| guntbert | dee27: and how is that helpful here? | 20:55 |
| ikonia | if the device is dead there is no device to run a diag on | 20:56 |
| kaellan | kroq-gar78: kk | 20:56 |
| kaellan | kroq-gar78: thx :) | 20:56 |
| kroq-gar78 | kaellan: just in case it messes something up in some way shape or form ;)] | 20:56 |
| zertyui | ok i understand now | 20:56 |
| ikonia | great | 20:56 |
| zertyui | so the solution is just only to through the disk outside | 20:57 |
| zertyui | and buy a new one | 20:57 |
| zertyui | , | 20:57 |
| sender | can anyone recommend a tool to work with a second screen like ultramon (for windows), somewhat using it like the second workspace | 20:57 |
| zertyui | ? | 20:57 |
| * w30 runs a compression check and a leakdown test on /dev/sda | 20:57 | |
| kaellan | kroq-gar78: just got ubunto on this laptop so if i dont have a clue what im doing i just format and reinstall xD | 20:57 |
| ikonia | zertyui: its up to you what you do | 20:57 |
| zertyui | ok thanks ikonia | 20:57 |
| BluesKaj | kaellan, what nvidia driver is installed now ? | 20:57 |

| amarcolino | hi my problem is that ssh wont bind to any ports once the system reboots, I have to manually restart ssh server before it binds to the desired port. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue and why does ssh do this? | 20:59 |
| usertwo | ikonia: so how can i check the usb is actually damaged? | 20:59 |
| ikonia | amarcolino: what is the error | 20:59 |
| extraclassic | spinrite repairs hard drives...not sure about usb | 20:59 |
| kaellan | If I instal new gpu drivers do i need to remove the old ones first or just instal the new ones over he old one ? | 21:00 |
| ikonia | kaellan: how/why are you trying to install new drivers | 21:00 |
| BluesKaj | kaellan, that's the recommended nvidia-current driver alright ...wonder if it's actually in use ? | 21:00 |
| amarcolino | ikonia, auth.log just says ssh can't bind on port etc, fatal error ssh can't bing on port etc, however, if I restart ssh it will bind on that port. | 21:01 |
| kaellan | ikonia: flashy screen from time to time ;D | 21:01 |

| usertwo | so is the command line entry sudo dd bs c? | 21:01 |
| kaellan | ikonia: y, GTX 460M | 21:01 |
| ikonia | amarcolino: have you actually tested to see if ssh is running | 21:01 |

| kaellan | ikonia: sry, didnt undersand what you ment. (eng not navtive language) | 21:03 |
| ikonia | kaellan: no problem | 21:04 |
| guntbert | jwash: why would you do *that*? | 21:04 |
| amarcolino | ikonia, no, could you provide the command for that. However, I would like to add that it only happens once the system reboots, my first thought was to create a quick script that restarts ssh once the system boots but that is not actually resolving the issue | 21:04 |

| kroq-gar78 | rcmaehl: as in don't make it show? | 21:06 |
| rcmaehl | I don't want the government having easy access to my files. | 21:06 |
| truepurple | hehehe | 21:06 |
| kroq-gar78 | rcmaehl: depends on where you live, COULDnt that be illegal? | 21:07 |
| rcmaehl | kroq-gar78: This is the internet | 21:07 |
| truepurple | I think rcmaehl wants to prevent it from working, and ones PC is their own property, you can disable anything you want on it | 21:07 |
| kroq-gar78 | rcmaehl: still, there is the real world | 21:07 |
| w30 | rcmaehl, the problem is physical access to your box is the hole in security not the boot menu | 21:07 |
| kroq-gar78 | truepurple: right | 21:07 |
| oCean | rcmaehl: edit /etc/default/grub, and enable GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_RECOVERY="true" | 21:08 |
| truepurple | someone might disable recovery mode to save space and resources | 21:08 |
| g[r]eek | Hi. I've upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04 and now my sound has stopped working. What can I do to fix this? | 21:08 |
| BluesKaj | amarcolino, have you edited the /etc/hosts.allow file to portmap , then list the pc IP s on your network , like so , ALL:192.168.x.x ? | 21:08 |
| guntbert | jwash: using RAM as swap file makes no sense at all, turn it off if you like | 21:08 |
| itilious | how can i make window controls bigger in ubuntu? | 21:08 |
| jwash | guntbert: good idea | 21:08 |
| kroq-gar78 | rcmaehl: and for other cool grub stuff, go to this forum thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275 | 21:08 |
| rcmaehl | w30: I've already made a fake recovery menu option that launches dban wiping for my secure data | 21:08 |
| w30 | rcmaehl, if they are setting in your chair they have you unless you encrypt | 21:08 |
| Cerrdor | which program will run pls files? | 21:08 |
| oCean | rcmaehl: after editing run sudo update-grub | 21:08 |
| Cerrdor | like radio streams? | 21:09 |
| rcmaehl | w30: it is encrypted | 21:09 |
| kroq-gar78 | Cerrdor: probably vlc, but not completely sure | 21:09 |
| rcmaehl | mplayer = best media player | 21:09 |
| Cerrdor | k lemme try it | 21:09 |
| jwash | do you know if i can make a ramdisk copy the contents of my root directory and boot from it? then when i reboot save the changes to my hard drive? i don't need to use compression | 21:09 |
| Cerrdor | 4 music players later lol | 21:09 |
| kroq-gar78 | Cerrdor: and probably Rhythmbox too | 21:09 |
| kroq-gar78 | lol :P | 21:10 |
| Cerrdor | kroq-gar78, I tried rythmbox but it just phails | 21:10 |
| w30 | rcmaehl, the latest hacks is capturing ram off a running box and getting keys | 21:10 |
| amarcolino | BluesKaj, kind of, I did by individual ips on my network as well as sshd: 192.168.*.*/24 | 21:10 |
| kroq-gar78 | Cerrdor: oh nvm lol then just try vlc: it plays everything | 21:10 |
| kaellan | emm, trying to open a package here and sais need to run as root. only got one login account i think or how to get root aces ? | 21:10 |
| kroq-gar78 | kaellan: sudo dpkg -i | 21:11 |
| oCean | !root | kaellan | 21:11 |
| ubottu | kaellan: 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/RootSudo | 21:11 |

| kroq-gar78 | jwash: like the ! ask thing? | 21:13 |
| amarcolino | guntbert, blush, I do not believe the ips are necessary | 21:13 |
| ubuntufreak21 | i need to talk to someone who knows alot about 3d graphic acceleration configuration | 21:13 |
| kroq-gar78 | ubuntufreak21: just ask the question. the problem might not be with 3d gfx | 21:13 |
| guntbert | amarcolino: the IP address might not .. but the port might be important | 21:14 |
| amarcolino | BluesKaj, was port 22 now I just want any port that will bind to ssh which apparently the system has none | 21:14 |

| ubuntufreak21 | ok let me check | 21:16 |
| guntbert | amarcolino: did you actually try to connect to ssh (even after the error message)? it might be that the system tries to a´start it twice... | 21:16 |
| ubuntufreak21 | ahh yes i do have open jdk | 21:16 |
| kroq-gar78 | ubuntufreak21: do you know how to install sun java? | 21:17 |

| usr13 | chrome | 21:20 |
| usr13 | chrome What? | 21:20 |
| amarcolino | BluesKaj, if I do that it will work but I shouldn't need to, I want to find out what is causing the problem. I don't think it is nis or nfs, or could it be? | 21:20 |
| jtiner | buzzkill: that's what i though too - but when i give it the username root and the password it it just pops the login dialog box up over and over again | 21:21 |
| chrome_ | usr13: anyone in my group can read the contents of my home folder | 21:21 |

| saliak | oCean - is there a way to force nullmailer to use my "username" for the smtp login as the "from" address? | 21:22 |
| buzzkill | two things to check jtiner. 1) the configuration file may be calling a different authentication method, so check that. and 2) your root user may only be currently allowed to connect from 127.0.0.1. I would check that too. | 21:22 |
| saliak | oCean - or a way to change my default from address to that? | 21:22 |
| jtiner | qin: i can login via the terminal @ window at the physical box or i can ssh in and open the mysql> prompt | 21:22 |
| usr13 | chrome_: by default, that should not be the case. | 21:22 |
| qin | josmala: ^^^ post from buzzkill | 21:22 |
| BluesKaj | amarcolino, doubt that it's nfs ...my setup use both , and i don't have any intereferemces | 21:23 |
| buzzkill | jtiner: from command line, 'select Host from user where User=root' | 21:23 |
| qin | jtiner: ^^^ | 21:23 |
| BluesKaj | err interference | 21:23 |
| oCean | saliak: you can specify from address with sendmail -f <address> | 21:23 |
| TheZanke | I need help, it took me forever to get Ubuntu installed on my laptop (thanks to vesa being replaced.. and the new one being incompatible). But once I got it installed the sound was coming out of both my speakers and headphones simultaneously... That wont do.. So I followed (to the T) these directions -> http://pastebin.com/Tf1VzR8w that someone with the same laptop and problem claimed to be a fix... And now I show no sound hardware | 21:23 |
| guntbert | amarcolino: another idea: look into /etc/ssh/sshd_config .. is there anything weird? | 21:23 |
| saliak | oCean - yeah, that's what i'm doing now, but i'm trying to attach a file, which isnt' working well with sendmail. mutt would let me do that easily , but there's no -f option | 21:23 |
| buzzkill | jtiner: IIRC, there is an issue with the '%' host and the root user... maybe if you specify your host (granting permissions to a new user that uses your IP specifically) | 21:24 |
| amarcolino | guntbert, I'll pastebin my sshd_config instead give me a sec | 21:24 |
| guntbert | amarcolino: in that file you should be able to increas the log level too | 21:24 |

| queequeg1 | Howdy, I have a regular 11.04 client installer disk. Is there a way to run a text based installer from the regular disk? | 21:24 |
| BluesKaj | amarcolino, I asked earlier ,have you edited the /etc/hosts.allow file to portmap , then list the pc IP s on your network , like so , ALL:192.168.x.x ? | 21:24 |
| buzzkill | and you can check #phpmyadmin as well. they will probably know a far bit more about how to solve the issue if this does not do it. | 21:24 |
| usr13 | chrome_: (for your user) | 21:24 |
| jtiner | buzzkill: yah i can select that | 21:24 |
| itilious | does anyone know how I can get the window controls (maximize, min, close) bigger? | 21:25 |
| jtiner | qin: yes, i can select that | 21:25 |
| jtiner | gonna try the other channel brb | 21:25 |
| chrome_ | usr13: 0022 | 21:25 |
| amarcolino | BluesKaj, I didn't list it like you instead I used the individual machines connected to the network as sshd: 192.168.*.* and sshd: ALL in /etc/hosts.deny. I know what you are trying to say but once ssh is working properly I have access from any machine | 21:26 |
| oCean | saliak: I'm not sure I understand the question | 21:26 |
| usr13 | chrome_: Actually, that's NOT always the case. I suppose they will have r but not w access. | 21:26 |

| diffident2 | hello. I'm hoping to get some help. One of my harddrives in my software raid 1 setup is giving me trouble, but I'm having trouble fixing it because my machine does not seem to show grub or any information on boot up. I instead get a purple screen only... Running 11.04. | 21:35 |
| oCean | saliak: oh, I don't know about that. It may be a client thing. When I send it to gmail account for example, it works fine | 21:35 |
| jtiner | jamescarr: trying to get some help myself | 21:35 |
| diffident2 | any suggestions? | 21:35 |
| guntbert | amarcolino: my point was: did you put the correct address in there? (and there is really no need to hide IP addresses on you local subnet, no way to connect to them from the outside) | 21:35 |
| pen16 | hi what command is it to reinstall ubuntu-desktop and all the parts of gnome? | 21:35 |
| pen16 | i did | 21:35 |
| usr13 | Delrayne: If the PC has a wifi NIC, yes, it will allow it to connect to an AP somewhere. | 21:35 |
| saliak | oCean - ahh, yeah, that's it. well, that sucks :( | 21:35 |
| Delrayne | diffident2: when you see the purple screen hit enter once, then press escape to get out of the language selection | 21:35 |
| jtiner | it just doesn't make sense - where is it pulling these username and passwd combos from? | 21:35 |
| pen16 | sudo apt-get --reinstall install ubuntu-desktop // but it finished too quickly and so I know it didnt do enough | 21:35 |
| pen16 | it just did 1 package | 21:36 |
| pen16 | Gnome's *.desktop files were deleted so I want to reinstall | 21:36 |
| diffident2 | Delrayne: I'm not sure I follow. This is on a regular boot, not when booting off of the ubuntu CD. | 21:36 |
| guntbert | amarcolino: apart from that I see nothing unusual, did you chreck /var/log/syslog after increasing the log level? | 21:37 |
| DV___ | How do you check startup programs via shell in 11.04? | 21:37 |
| Delrayne | diffident2: oh my bad then. | 21:37 |

| Dulcin | Hi, I'm very new to linux/git. If I want to clone a git repository to my server, I need a public key, I have ssh installed, but do I also have to install the openssh-client on the server? | 21:38 |

| Delrayne | diffident2: I'm not a pro...still using the liveCD until I get more comfortable. Might want to get someone elses opinion. | 21:39 |
| intlkleinblue | Dulcin: if you have ssh on the server, you probably have openssh-client already | 21:39 |
| diffident2 | Delrayne: OK, thanks. | 21:39 |

| ikus060 | Hi there, I'm trying to understand some basic concept about sata controller and Linux. When I have a standard motherboard with sata port, the operating system doesn't required any special driver/ kernel module to detect the disk. | 21:41 |
| pen16 | usr13: and Gnome broke, so I need to reinstall Gnome | 21:41 |
| intlkleinblue | Dulcin: this guide gives a good run down. Skip all the GUI parts and go to the part with 'Setup SSH Keys' http://help.github.com/linux-set-up-git/ | 21:41 |
| Oer | ikus060, true | 21:41 |
| ahammond | qin: thanks! | 21:41 |
| intlkleinblue | follow the terminal commands Dulcin | 21:41 |
| ikus060 | When I have a sata controller install on a pci-e does linux required a driver or a module to access the disks ?? | 21:41 |

| _pepo_ | Hi friends | 21:42 |
| intlkleinblue | just don't use the add your ssh key to github part, no prob Dulcin | 21:42 |
| Goliath | should i autoremove or my system will break? (the last time i did that my system broke) | 21:42 |
| pen16 | What command can I type to reinstall Gnome and all of its dependencies? | 21:42 |
| _pepo_ | Is there any version of Ubuntu for Power7? | 21:42 |
| Delrayne | usr13: no function key for me..just a switch...it says the driver is installed and activated when I do system>admin>additional drivers | 21:42 |
| Oer | ikus060, i mean, it does, but it has all the drivers available., | 21:42 |
| ubuntufreak21 | hey i have java and open jdk do i need both? | 21:42 |
| Goliath | please someone tell me | 21:43 |
| ubuntufreak21 | java 3d and open jdk? | 21:43 |
| io | Dulcin: or you could skip the reading and '$ ssh-keygen -t rsa' | 21:43 |
| intlkleinblue | Goliath: pls use pastebin.com next time, don't flood the channel | 21:43 |
| w30 | intlkleinblue, I used ubuntu flashdrive bootdisk maker on mine; I didn't have any problems. I also got 4gig for config changes. | 21:43 |
| Goliath | intlkleinblue: ok | 21:43 |
| ikus060 | Oer, ok. What if I want to install an operating system on the disk plugged on the sata controller. How grub will do to access the disk if it doesn't have the modules loaded to access the drive ?! | 21:43 |
| Goliath | intlkleinblue: what about the msg? should i run this autoremove ? | 21:43 |
| Goliath | intlkleinblue: i dont really trust autoremoves, the have removed some stuff i needed last time (of the system) | 21:44 |
| intlkleinblue | Goliath: I'd be careful about that. firefox-branding is the ubuntu branding stuff and changes your browser to A Browser. the rest of it are some kernel headers and upgrade stuff. If you go through Synaptic instead of the terminal, I think it should make more sense. I'm not too sure tbh though, maybe someone else can answer. | 21:45 |
| B0g4r7 | Hai guys. Suppose I have a machine running 10.04 Desktop, with 3 displays attached, and 3 keyboard/mouse pairs attached. Is it possible to have each display run it's own "session", allowing each to login as a different user, and be controlled by it's corresponding keyboartd/mouse set? | 21:45 |
| amarcolino | guntbert, doubt this helps but its all I can see in syslog http://paste.ubuntu.com/640390/ | 21:46 |

| Deathray | Is it possible to somehow limit/throttle the percentage of CPU my Ubuntu (or a specific user) is allowed to use? | 21:46 |

| Deathray | So I want to make sure no process can reach higher than 80%, or if thats not possible that any process can not reach above 50% | 21:47 |
| jtiner | so i'm spinning my wheels here but i think it has something to do with the files in /etc/phpmyadmin | 21:47 |
| jtiner | specifically the empty file called htpasswd.setup | 21:47 |

| alpha | When will we, people using ubuntu 10.04, get the possibility to upgrade ubuntu in the upgrade manager without changing stuff (AFAIK after some time this update comes automatically)? | 22:18 |
| usertwo | anyone know how to fix a fake usb using ubuntu only. dont have windows so cant use online tools. | 22:19 |
| usr13 | Delrayne: Yea. Looks like you first uninstall the bcmwl kernel source and then download and isntall bcmwl-kernel-source_5.60.48.36+bdcom-0ubuntu5_i386.deb | 22:19 |
| amarcolino | filo1234, thanks | 22:19 |
| Polah | Guest57530, I doubt your ISP is blocking traffic on port 80. | 22:19 |
| filo1234 | amarcolino: or put your commands inside /etc/rc.local but in this case it runs after login | 22:19 |
| usr13 | Delrayne: But this may not apply any more. If you do the install and get it fully updated, it may just work. | 22:19 |
| usr13 | Delrayne: I don't know.... | 22:20 |
| filo1234 | amarcolino: another option is root's crontab with @reboot /path/script | 22:20 |
| Delrayne | usr13: should I try 'sudo apt-get updates'? | 22:20 |
| usr13 | Delrayne: Yes | 22:20 |
| mbrigdan | Alright, I'm having a very strange, and annoying, problem: I can't seem to remove apache. I've removed all of the apache related packages, but apache is still in my start scripts and in my bin folders. Anyone know what I can do? | 22:21 |
| usr13 | Delrayne: Well, not from the liveCD. After install | 22:21 |
| Guest57530 | I can't get on any web page on any computer | 22:21 |
| Guest57530 | I can ping my default gateway and and other ip | 22:21 |

| Guest57530 | I can use IRC | 22:21 |
| jtiner | by default in ubuntu what is the user and group set to for the /var/www directory and everything under neath it | 22:21 |
| jtiner | i changed it to root:webpublishers | 22:21 |
| Guest57530 | and an existing flash based chat still works | 22:22 |
| Polah | Guest57530, is there some content screening active on your router, or access control, or perhaps port 80 is closed there. Port 80 is standard HTTP, it seems unlikely that your ISP would close it. | 22:22 |
| jtiner | but i think it was web-data | 22:22 |
| filo1234 | mbrigdan: sudo apt-get remove --purge apache2 ? | 22:22 |
| Guest57530 | nah there won't be I checked | 22:22 |
| Delrayne | usr13: well I've uninstalled bcmwl...downloaded his, double clicked it, but nothing happened that showed an installation of sorts | 22:22 |
| jtiner | -rw-r----- 1 root www-data 20 2011-07-08 16:59 htpasswd.setup | 22:22 |

| amarcolino | filo1234, thanks I guess I'll place it in /etc/init.d/ unless using cron would be better. It is only a script that restarts ssh after 3 or 5 seconds once the system boots. | 22:23 |
| wildbat | Guest57530: get a nickname ;p ~ can you go to "74.125.224.81" with browser? | 22:23 |

| grmrgecko | Ok, so I just bought a USB flash drive, and Mac OS X says it's a USB DISK 2.0. I want to be able to boot Ubuntu off of it, so I tried using DD to put the minimal CD on it just to test the boot-ability and it couldn't find it when I tried to boot from it. Anyone know how to make it bootable? Please mention my name when you have an answer. | 22:24 |

| sarkis|work | hey guys, how can i fix gnome-terminal so it's not set to xterm | 22:26 |
| filo1234 | usertwo: and what is fake usb? | 22:26 |
| sarkis|work | i would like to get xterm-256color so i get color in utils like tmux | 22:26 |
| Guest57530 | He thought it was a designer brand usb, but it was a cheap knock off from China | 22:27 |
| usr13 | Delrayne: What do you mean a lock next to it? | 22:27 |
| usr13 | Delrayne: Are you still on the LiveCD? | 22:28 |
| sarkis|work | do i just have to do export TERM=xterm-256color in my bashrc? | 22:28 |
| Delrayne | it downloaded to the tmp folder and when I go there and look at it, there is little lock in the top right corner of its icon. | 22:28 |
| sarkis|work | i see theres a check in the bashrc that looks for xterm-color? | 22:28 |
| dwarder | anyone? | 22:28 |
| sarkis|work | and then sets a color_prompt | 22:28 |
| Delrayne | usr13 and yes still on the liveCD. | 22:28 |
| dwarder | is running "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" usualy ends up well? | 22:28 |

| sarkis|work | szal: but why does gnome-terminal set itself to xterm :/ | 22:29 |
| sarkis|work | and not xterm-256color? | 22:29 |
| sarkis|work | or even gnome-256color | 22:29 |
| dwarder | :( | 22:30 |
| dwarder | nobody dist upgrades? | 22:30 |
| usertwo | filo1234: a fake usb is one that has the wrong size on the case to what is actually inside (so 8GB usb sold as 64GB for much higher price). the chip is flashed into tricking the OS into believing the 'fake' size (eg 64gb). however, by finding the correct size and reformatting to this size 'repairs' the usb, so its not a complete waste of mony. there are tools for this online for windows, but i dont have windows. so what commands can i use in ubuntu to fin | 22:30 |

| dwarder | before | 22:30 |
| usr13 | Delrayne: Some of the Broadcom WiFi NICs are quite a problem. If it were me, I'd buy another one on Ebay and sell the one you have to someone else, (maybe a MS Windows user). But you can make it work, I'm pretty sure. But dono about the LiveCD. That is not the same as a real install. | 22:31 |
| sarkis|work | dwarder: what are you trying to dist-upgrade? | 22:31 |
| Polah | dwarder: What are you dist-upgrading for? | 22:31 |
| szal | sarkis|work: standard behaviour in *buntu, I guess.. my Konsole is set to xterm as well, but I don't see how this would be of any disadvantage | 22:31 |
| mongy | my broadcom is fine. | 22:31 |
| Delrayne | usr13: roger that...and I honestly don't want to go through the trouble installing another wireless nic...so I'll tinker around some more before I get all my stuff together to do the full install. | 22:31 |

| dwarder | sarkis|work: | 22:32 |
| ubuntu____ | i make the lvm container and open oit with cryptsetup, then i assign the mount points to the partitions, then uquibity chrashes | 22:32 |
| mongy | depends what model it is. b43 supports some, sta supports the rest. | 22:32 |
| ubuntu____ | thanks for help | 22:32 |
| Polah | dwarder: And what's wrong with yours? | 22:32 |
| dwarder | Polah: nothing wrong yet, i'm about to do this, i'm just asking is it pron to errors, what should i expect from it | 22:32 |
| mongy | Delrayne, you have the same wifi nic as me. broadcom sta is the one for you | 22:33 |
| Polah | dwarder: It's basically the same as upgrade except it installs additional packages as well, I think. | 22:33 |
| dwarder | Polah: and am i realy need to dist-upgrade? | 22:33 |
| dwarder | Polah: ok i'm doing it :) | 22:34 |
| Polah | dwarder: It's just to make sure your other packages are up to date and would work. It's not really necessary. | 22:34 |

| grmrgecko | I need to figure this out | 22:37 |

| szal | Krenair, NoHTTP: firewall problem on either or both sides | 23:10 |
| NoHTTP | what port does DCC use? | 23:10 |
| usertwo | wildbat: the windows tools write small files to the disk until they reach the limit and then report the size. i think this is what the dd command is doing in 512 byte steps, right? | 23:11 |

| NoHTTP | anything | 23:11 |
| Phoenixz | szal: Indeed it does.. since you say the 64 bit doesnt have this problem, I'd install it, but its not there | 23:11 |

| Krenair | ehnde: teamviewer | 23:15 |
| usertwo | wildbat: my friend is a UNIX goddess, and so i will ask her if she can reflash using her UNIX box. its just thats it 0430 here now and she is sleeping, so i thought i would try in linux myself. otherwise, you are right, i will ave to find a windows machine | 23:15 |
| Phoenixz | v0idless: google for "upgrade ubuntu" | 23:15 |
| Phoenixz | v0idless: LOTS of documentation on this | 23:15 |
| ehnde | Krenair: great idea! | 23:15 |
| usertwo | wildbat; but almost ther using ubuntu! :-) | 23:16 |
| Phoenixz | szal: itaylor57: Thanks, I'll try the 64 bits version! | 23:16 |
| usr13 | Phoenixz: I think it does. So just do sudo mv libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins | 23:16 |
| Phoenixz | itaylor57: How would I incorporate this ppa directly? Add it to /etc/apt/sources.list? | 23:16 |
| szal | Phoenixz: see my URL, it has a one-line command to do that | 23:16 |
| itaylor57 | Phoenixz, do what szal says | 23:17 |
| szal | Phoenixz: erm, no, it hasn't the full command, so -> 'sudo apt-add-repository ppa:sevenmachines/flash' | 23:17 |
| szal | Phoenixz: then 'sudo apt-get update' and install flashplugin64-installer | 23:18 |
| grmrgecko | no luck. | 23:18 |

| demox | hi, i just installed ubuntu and i have a gma 3150 card and i think i have graphics problems, everything is delayed and slowed down | 23:35 |
| ubuntufreak21 | usr13 : yes | 23:35 |
| usr13 | ubuntufreak21: is it formatted? | 23:35 |
| bazhang | Byan, then zero reason for it. either wait for when you upgrade to oneiric or dont do it. In any case, please dont ask for any help here, as that completely out of support. | 23:35 |
| ubuntufreak21 | usr13 : yes | 23:36 |
| Byan | bazhang: there is an lxinput bug that stops it from working at all.. | 23:36 |
| usr13 | ubuntufreak21: Open a terminal and type sudo tail -f /var/log/messages #And plug it in. Or unplug and plug it back in and see what shows in the terminal window. | 23:36 |
| ubuntufreak21 | user 13 I just want to know where to locate it on my computer | 23:36 |
| Byan | bazhang: and I am not asking anyone to support it.. I am asking someone to tell me how to get the package >_> | 23:37 |
| bazhang | Byan, thats asking for support. You are on your own. | 23:37 |
| ubuntufreak21 | usr13 : I want help to locate it where ever /media is | 23:37 |
| usr13 | ubuntufreak21: Are you running Ubuntu 11.04 and unity? | 23:37 |
| demox | hi, i just installed ubuntu and i have a gma 3150 card and i think i have graphics problems, everything is delayed and slowed down | 23:38 |
| Byan | suppose for download -any- package from the website is unsupported? | 23:38 |
| ubuntufreak21 | user 13 : what is unity? | 23:38 |
| Byan | support* | 23:38 |
| bazhang | demox, thats not very clear description, please clarify | 23:38 |
| Byan | man, you guys are silly | 23:38 |
| Ycarene | Is there a version of ubuntu that ships with E? | 23:38 |
| usr13 | ubuntufreak21: Well, as you just said, /media is in the root directory, /media Just type ls /media | 23:38 |
| bazhang | Byan, please stop | 23:38 |
| Jesdisciple | ^ | 23:38 |
| bazhang | Ycarene, e17 or e17 | 23:39 |
| szal | !bugs | Byan | 23:39 |
| ubottu | Byan: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 23:39 |
| demox | bazhang, image doesnt look sharp as on windows and windows are a bit sluggish, any test i can do? | 23:39 |
| NoHTTP | demox what was you running before? | 23:39 |
| bazhang | Ycarene, whoops e16 | 23:39 |
| Ycarene | Either | 23:39 |
| Byan | szal: I did file a bug.. and now it's fixed | 23:39 |
| demox | NoHTTP, windows | 23:39 |
| mozybonz | hehe | 23:39 |
| szal | Byan: if it's a showstopper, it should get pushed into normal updates | 23:40 |
| bazhang | Ycarene, ships with it as default like E16buntu? no, but you can install from repos; e17 has their own repos you can find somewhere on the web | 23:40 |
| Byan | szal: my bug was set as a dup of another bug that was just fixed. I want to confirm they arein fact dups | 23:40 |
| Cerrdor | anything like freemake downloader for ubuntu? | 23:40 |
| szal | Byan: and if it doesn't appear to be, then contact the package maintainer & ask for a status update | 23:40 |
| Cerrdor | pull mp3 from youtube? | 23:41 |
| Delrayne | when I install from the live cd will it retain what i've done on the livecd? | 23:41 |
| Byan | szal: .. how will I know whether it is or not if I don't run it | 23:41 |
| Byan | szal: it very well could be | 23:41 |
| sediman | I like Ubuntu 10.04 but in the classic Ubuntu | 23:41 |
| ubuntufreak21 | usr13 : it skipped over it and just started back at username | 23:41 |
| NoHTTP | Yeah, ubuntu kinda sucks for graphics card drivers, | 23:41 |
| Jesdisciple | beyond this particular issue, Byan, you might want to install that distro as well, so you're testing on the same one as maintainers | 23:42 |
| bazhang | Delrayne, no | 23:42 |
| usr13 | ubuntufreak21: What did? The output of ls /media/ ? | 23:42 |
| NoHTTP | Still no hardware acceleration of flv in adobe flash | 23:42 |
| Byan | Jesdisciple: while thats true.. if it does fix it then I can call it a day.. | 23:42 |
| NoHTTP | for linux, but there is on Windows | 23:42 |
| ubuntufreak21 | usr13 : where do I type ls /media | 23:42 |
| NoHTTP | press alt + f2 | 23:42 |
| ubuntufreak21 | usr13 : in terminal/ | 23:43 |
| ubuntufreak21 | ? | 23:43 |
| usr13 | ubuntufreak21: In a terminal window. | 23:43 |
| szal | NoHTTP: that's certainly not Ubuntu's fault | 23:43 |
| dbruns | usr13. lapaga i'm on the live CD right now. I want to wipe out win 7 completely, but cfdisk and fdisk won't let me | 23:43 |
| ubuntufreak21 | yeah it didnt say anything it just skipped over the information | 23:43 |
| ubuntufreak21 | like its read only or something | 23:44 |
| usr13 | dbruns: sudo fdisk /dev/sda | 23:44 |
| usr13 | dbruns: The installer should have done it for you.... | 23:44 |
| mozybonz | gparted works great | 23:44 |
| demox | NoHTTP, any suggestions? | 23:44 |
| ubuntufreak21 | hey can you help me with t remote viewer | 23:45 |
| usr13 | ubuntufreak21: Is it plugged in now? If so, try this: sudo fdsik -l #And see if you see it listed. | 23:45 |
| ubuntufreak21 | ok | 23:45 |
| usr13 | ubuntufreak21: Sure | 23:45 |
| stercor | I have a flash drive (USB stick) with the .iso on it. I need to create a bootable flash drive _without using the GUI_ (my mouse is dead.) | 23:45 |
| jtiner | ok | 23:45 |
| jtiner | i'm back | 23:45 |
| jtiner | stress is killing me | 23:46 |
| robert_ | which package had autoheader? | 23:46 |
| bazhang | stercor, pendrivelinux website should have some instructions for that | 23:46 |
| jtiner | oops ww | 23:46 |
| chris_99 | for some stupid reason i deleted /etc/snort , now when i attempt to re-install it with apt-get it doesn't repopulate this folder | 23:46 |
| dbruns | usr13, it says unable to open sda :( | 23:46 |
| bazhang | jtiner, wrong channel | 23:46 |
| chris_99 | any ideas how to get it back | 23:46 |
| jtiner | bazhang: yah | 23:46 |
| stercor | bazhang: I'll go there right now! With lynx, of course :-) | 23:46 |
| demox | hi, i just installed ubuntu and i have a gma 3150 card and i think i have graphics problems, windows are sluggish and pictures not sharped | 23:47 |
| usr13 | dbruns: sudo fdisk -l #See what is there.... | 23:47 |
| ubuntufreak21 | usr 13 ; thats weird its says they are linux | 23:47 |
| usr13 | ubuntufreak21: See my PM | 23:47 |
| ubuntufreak21 | hold on be right back in a few minutes | 23:47 |
| dbruns | usr13, i think this is the problem: "Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary" it shows the Windows partitions I setup when I installed win7 a while ago | 23:48 |
| sediman | I don't like the scrolling bar sometimes it appears and sometimes don't. | 23:48 |
| bazhang | sediman, what scrolling bar, where | 23:48 |
| jtiner | can someone provide me with a quicky fix to this: jtiner is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported. --- i don't recall doing anything that would cause this to happen on my linux box | 23:49 |
| jtiner | it's really aggravating me | 23:49 |
| usr13 | dbruns: That's not a problem, your just going to delete the partitions anyway. Right? | 23:49 |
| jtiner | i'm thinking im going to have to reinstall everything, but if i do that then i don't learn anything - and then if the prob hits me in the real world - i'm screwed :( | 23:49 |
| necrodearia | An ubuntu system of mine is broken and gnome doesn't work properly anymore. How can I use apt-get to reinstall gnome and ALL deep reverse dependencies on the system so that it fixes any and all broken packages? | 23:49 |
| bazhang | necrodearia, please clarify 'work properly' | 23:50 |
| jtiner | necrodearia: did you read the man page for apt-get yet? | 23:50 |
| necrodearia | e.g. if I rm -rf some files manually, then they may be broken and indetectable by apt-get install -f maybe | 23:50 |
| dbruns | usr13, right, but I can't get cfdisk or fdisk to actually let me delete them. At least the way I'm familiar with is there a single command to do it? | 23:50 |
| usr13 | dbruns: Just type d to delete partition. | 23:50 |
| kaellan | up in the left corner at the chat t thingy i have added my msn. buth i dont find how to open a chat window xD | 23:50 |
| necrodearia | jtiner, I did | 23:50 |
| Jesdisciple | I reinstalled Unetbootin, no luck | 23:50 |
| Jesdisciple | still no init found | 23:50 |
| Jesdisciple | and it annoying eats my iso every time so I gotta download it again... | 23:51 |
| jtiner | necrodearia: this is just a shot in the dark, but can't you just do an apt-get remove gnome and then do a apt-get install gnome? | 23:51 |
| Jesdisciple | annoyingly* | 23:51 |
| usr13 | dbruns: sudo fdisk /dev/sda #Where sda is the actual drive you want to delete partition from. | 23:51 |
| jtiner | necrodearia: i'm not saying that is the answer to your question - but that's the first thing that comes to mind to try | 23:51 |
| Jesdisciple | there was some notice before the error shell about something being deprecated | 23:51 |
| TheZanke | anyone know why this is? -> The file /lib/modules/2.6.38-8-generic/build/include/linux/autoconf.h does not exist. | 23:51 |
| stercor | bazhang: Hmmm....all the information I found uses Startup Disk Creator. Is it possible to navigate the GUI without a mouse? | 23:51 |
| Jesdisciple | guess I'll check my Unetbootin version | 23:51 |
| bazhang | Jesdisciple, thats likely not the issue. a corrupt iso is. | 23:52 |
| dbruns | usr13, yeah its given me errors :( oh well i'll do some reading in the man pages and see what I can figure out | 23:52 |
| Kaleidomorph | Hmmm... that sounds like something I may have to do. :/ | 23:52 |
| jtiner | necrodearia: as for me i'm having all sorts of problems with my linux box today - sudo permissions - apache2 permissions - etc etc etc - i'm trying to brush up on this stuff so i can go back to work (i just got out of the hospital) | 23:52 |
| szal | TheZanke: that appears when you do what? | 23:52 |
| bazhang | Jesdisciple, so reinstalling unetbootin will do nothing | 23:52 |
| demox | hi, i just installed ubuntu and i have a gma 3150 card and i think i have graphics problems, windows are sluggish and pictures not sharped | 23:52 |
| Kaleidomorph | It appears I've lost ost of my GUI on my trisquel install on my main computer. I have the desktop graphic and some icons I cannot click, but all of my Gnome panels are gone as are all my menus. | 23:52 |
| Kaleidomorph | Does anyone have any idea what I may have done and what I can do to fix it? I'm not an advanced user by the way. I'm still quite new to Linux. | 23:52 |
| usr13 | dbruns: Ok | 23:52 |
| Jesdisciple | bazhang, if it's a corrupt iso it's corrupt on the Canonical server | 23:53 |
| Jesdisciple | I downloaded it twice | 23:53 |
| lapaga | dbruns, if you really want to get rid of win7 then just use gparted to format the drive or when you install use the whole disk | 23:53 |
| bazhang | Jesdisciple, no its not. it became corrupt in transit | 23:53 |
| bazhang | md5 the iso Jesdisciple | 23:53 |
| szal | Jesdisciple: did you also check checksums? | 23:53 |
| stercor | Is it possible to navigate the GUI without a mouse? | 23:53 |
| bazhang | !md5 | Jesdisciple | 23:53 |
| ubottu | Jesdisciple: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 23:53 |
| bazhang | stercor, looking for a cli way to do that | 23:54 |
| bazhang | !hashes | Jesdisciple | 23:54 |
| ubottu | Jesdisciple: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes for the md5sums of Ubuntu discs. | 23:54 |
| Byan | bazhang: szal and others- if you click on the build link it'll show all the recent builds and give you option to download the .deb | 23:54 |
| Byan | just fyi | 23:54 |
| bazhang | Byan, yes I know that, why mention it | 23:54 |
| * szal knows where to get stuff if need be | 23:55 | |
| Byan | bazhang: because.. it's the solution to my unsupported problem >_> | 23:55 |
| ubuntufreak21 | user 13 read private message | 23:56 |
| szal | !tab | ubuntufreak21 | 23:56 |
| ubottu | ubuntufreak21: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 23:56 |
| stercor | bazhang: Thanks. I'm OK with the CLI. Just don't know how to create the bootable USB stick with the CLI. | 23:57 |
| sediman | :) | 23:57 |
| ubuntufreak21 | k sorry | 23:57 |
| demox | hi, i just installed ubuntu and i have a gma 3150 card and i think i have graphics problems, windows are sluggish and pictures not sharped | 23:57 |
| Nobgul-bnc | !restricteddrivers | 23:58 |
| Nobgul-bnc | demox, there are restricted drivers for almost all video cards under system -> administration | 23:58 |
| stercor | bazhang: Ooo...Super Tab helps. I'll keep on that track. | 23:58 |
| === Cream is now known as derp|gone | ||
| szal | what's a "gma 3150" anyway? | 23:59 |
| Detox__ | quick question,,,,, name based virtual servers using apache,,, do the name-based servers need to be FQDN? or,,, if the main site is myplace.com..... can I just add inot apache bob.myplace.com ;; or sueplace.com? | 23:59 |
| ubuntufreak21 | ok | 23:59 |
| Jesdisciple | downloading for a third time... this time I'll be duplicating the file before feeding it to Unetbootin... | 23:59 |
