[00:00] <pfifo> kisuke, you can, but its not really good practice to force stuff like that, but if you have to, use a LTS package instead.
[00:01] <kisuke> pfifo: im doing a patch untill a natty version get released, the XBMC unstable is not dooing good things to my mental health.
[00:01] <pfifo> kisuke, you should build from source instead of forcing a maverick package onto natty
[00:02] <nikali> hi everyone. I was trying to use an app called Sikuli, I downloaded linux version, and opened the .sh file, but nothing happens after I clicked. What's the matter?

[00:04] <nikali> irc-xd: i did set it as executable
[00:04] <cabral> SI
[00:04] <irc-xd> nikali: do you get any error messages?
[00:04] <kisuke> pfifo: thers one im not looking forward to.
[00:04] <pfifo> nikali, the .sh file is a shell script, can you open it and pastebin the contents so I can see what it does
[00:04] <nikali> irc-xd: nothing pops up
[00:05] <nikali> pfifo: ok
[00:05] <intlkleinblue> ok, it looks like the lock screen issue is still around though...Is there a default gconf file for this sort of thing that I can c/p or something?

[00:10] <Sam98961> Anyone know if you boot to ram will it also copy your casper-rw files so it will load your changes you've made?
[00:10] <hamed> hi i installed xampp and want to change the path of htdocs folder and make it in another partion . can i do that
[00:11] <DasEi> Sam98961: yes, will
[00:11] <Sam98961> Awesome, thanks!
[00:12] <OerHeks> !xampp | hamed
[00:13] <hamed> xampp isnot open source ?
[00:15] <Drone4four> how do I find out where a program is installed to?  I'm trying to find out where scite is installed so i can get at the configuration files (there is no .sc<auto complete> in my home/user/ directory)
[00:15] <aeon-ltd> Drone4four: whereis nameofapp (iirc, in a terminal)
[00:15] <pfifo> nikali, run it like this... ./file.sh
[00:16] <nikali> without any command?
[00:16] <Quadrescence> Is/has anyone experienced some weird terminal behavior with any of xterm, gnome-terminal, URXVT? For me, no line wrapping is occurring and it just continues to write on the same line (which clobbers the display).
[00:16] <pfifo> nikali, the file IS the command
[00:16] <nikali> i see
[00:17] <Flannel> Drone4four: You can make one, that'll be your user profile.  ~/.SciTEUser.properties
[00:17] <mastahyeti> I am trying to install intel bigfix on ubuntu 11.04. They only distribute builds for LTS, but 10.04 isn't an option for me. One of the deps for the .deb is libapt-pkg-libc6.10-6-4.8 , but isn't fore some reason it isn't installed with 11.04 and I can't find source or an anything in apt for 11.04... any thoughts? thanks
[00:17] <hamed> ok i am xubuntu i need to seach for file
[00:18] <Flannel> Drone4four: the global properties are /usr/share/scite/SciTE.properties
[00:18] <pook1e> can anyone here help me with a pbuilder error?
[00:19] <pfifo> hamed, the program 'slocate' is used for searching for file in a journaled filesystem
[00:19] <Flannel> Drone4four: http://www.scintilla.org/SciTEDoc.html#PropertiesFile for how the four possible properties files interact.
[00:19] <nikali> pfifo: it worked! you are awesome. thanks a lot
[00:20] <hamed> sorry but where is the journaled
[00:20] <sehnsucht> Hey all :)
[00:20] <pfifo> hamed, just goto the command line and run 'slocate some_file.ext'
[00:20] <lalejand> Hi, is there some dpkg guru here ?
[00:20] <sehnsucht> Fresh Ubuntu Blood here seeking help :)
[00:21] <hamed> slocate
[00:21] <hamed> No command 'slocate' found, did you mean:
[00:21] <hamed>  Command 'dlocate' from package 'dlocate' (universe)
[00:21] <hamed>  Command 'zlocate' from package 'zephyr-clients' (universe)
[00:21] <hamed>  Command 'mlocate' from package 'mlocate' (main)

[00:21] <pfifo> !ask | lalejand sehnsucht
[00:21] <hamed>  Command 'locate' from package 'locate' (universe)
[00:22] <intlklei1blue> ok, it looks like the lock screen issue is still around though...Is there a default gconf file for this sort of thing that I can c/p or something?
[00:22] <sehnsucht> Anyone familiar with ATI Video cards and world of warcraft ?
[00:22] <Drone4four> thanks aeon-ltd and Flannel
[00:22] <intlklei1blue> ok, it looks like the lock screen issue is still around though...Is there a default gconf file for this sort of thing that I can c/p or something?
[00:22] <pfifo> hamed, then try mlocate or locate instead, you mayt need to install one
[00:22] <intlklei1blue> for Power Mgmt that is
[00:23] <lalejand> ubottu : ok
[00:23] <sehnsucht> I went from windows 7 where i would get 60-80FPS and now that I have World of Warcraft running in WINE on Ubuntu, I get only 10-20FPS
[00:23] <sehnsucht> I have tried all of the "tricks" on forums and blogs without any real results
[00:24] <intlklei1blue> ubottu: are you really a bot? tell me your deepest darkest secret to be sure.
[00:24] <lalejand> My problem is : if I try to install or uninstall something I get a dpkg error : "dpkg : erreur fatale irréversible, abandon :  reading files list for package 'xdg-utils': est un dossier E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)"

[00:25] <pfifo> lalejand, can you translate that for us or ask in #ubuntu-fr
[00:27] <pfifo> hamed, then the file probably dosent exist
[00:27] <lalejand> pfifo : "dpkg : irreversible fatal error / abandon :  reading files list for package 'xdg-utils': is a folder / E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)"
[00:27] <hamed> ok no problem thank you very much for your helping
[00:27] <pfifo> lalejand, try a `sudo apt-get -f install`
[00:28] <lalejand> pfifo : same error
[00:28] <pfifo> lalejand, sudo apt-get update
[00:29] <lalejand> pfifo : update --> ok, install --> same error
[00:30] <pfifo> lalejand, what is the command your running?
[00:30] <lalejand> pfifo : sudo apt-get -f install openvpn
[00:31] <pfifo> lalejand, remove the -f and try again
[00:31] <lalejand> pfifo : same error
[00:31] <lalejand> pfifo : sudo apt-get install openvpn
[00:32] <pfifo> lalejand, run `sudo dpkg-reconfigure xdg-utils`
[00:32] <lalejand> pfifo : done. I try to install openvpn ? With or without -f ?
[00:33] <pfifo> lalejand, dont use -f, ever, unless you know why your using it
[00:35] <lalejand> pfifo : tried to install openvpn (without -f) after the dpkg-reconfigure --> same error
[00:36] <HackerII> DasEi  it got alittle farther, but stops on (S20modual-init-tools)
[00:37] <professional-are> Hello who can helo me delete all the options at startup? as in to where there is one windows and one ubuntu.. not 20 ubuntus.. and windows starts firs because when other people use the computer they dont know how to use ubuntu? thanks
[00:37] <wizardken_> hey
[00:37] <HackerII> and keeps asking about apparmor 2.4 patch
[00:37] <wizardken_> what commands to get gateway address?
[00:37] <HackerII> weird
[00:38] <pfifo> lalejand, try `sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a`
[00:38] <DasEi> HackerII: what stops ? the update ?
[00:38] <HackerII> the kernel load
[00:38] <wizardken_> What's the command to get gateway address??
[00:39] <pfifo> wizardken_, `route` or `ip addr`
[00:39] <DasEi> professional-are: you can delete uneeded kernels by synaptic (search linux-image, then complett removal), /etc/default/grub lets you set default bootentry
[00:40] <DasEi> HackerII: so booting just hangs ?
[00:40] <professional-are> DasEi, can you go about that step by step since i am new at this
[00:40] <professional-are> thanks
[00:40] <HackerII> kinda, it goes into init then stops and asks for password, then stops
[00:41] <DasEi> professional-are: gksudo synaptic
[00:41] <DasEi> HackerII: did you try to boot safemode ?
[00:41] <HackerII> no, should i ?
[00:41] <lapaga> professional-are, if you are inclined to get rid of old kernels you should probably keep the next to the current one to fall back on
[00:41] <lalejand> pfifo : done. tried to install openvpn --> same error
[00:42] <Dulak> l
[00:42] <pfifo> lalejand, have you made any recent changes to your system?
[00:42] <DasEi> HackerII: yes, try dpkg option (if you get there), and if you get apparmor error, try to re-install it
[00:42] <professional-are> lapanga, ok
[00:42] <HackerII> ok, will try
[00:42] <HackerII> thanks
[00:42] <DasEi> professional-are: enter linux-image in searchbox
[00:43] <DasEi> professional-are: to see which kernel you are on now, type uname -a in another terminal tab
[00:43] <lalejand> pfifo : I removed nightly PPA ubuntuone packages with purgeppa.

[01:02] <DasEi> carldondesk: gksudo gparted from terminal ?
[01:02] <pfifo> carldondesk, you have to run gparted from a live enviroment
[01:02] <lalejand> Guest5798 : ah sorry, can't help. Works fine with mine. Try to see if there is not a related bug report on launchpad
[01:02] <carldondesk> by live you mean without loading ubuntu and just loading bash?
[01:02] <Guest5798> no ok i have find
[01:02] <Guest5798> thx

[01:03] <carldondesk> ok gksudo worked, thank you
[01:03] <DasEi> carldondesk: and again, the drive has to be unmounted, so unless you want a format an additional drive.. need another environment
[01:04] <Phr3d-13> Question: How much free space do i need for a kernel compile?
[01:05] <pfifo> Phr3d-13, sources are about 200MB or so
[01:05] <Phr3d-13> how come this compile is gobbling up my hard drive?
[01:05] <pfifo> Phr3d-13, erm source + archive is about 100 mb or so, double that to 200mb to be safe
[01:06] <Phr3d-13> it took gigs not megs
[01:06] <pfifo> Phr3d-13, are you building lots of modules?
[01:06] <Da|Mummy> ive got a folder with 300 files, i want to compress each of those files into seperate .7z format, not all of them into one, but each into its own, whats the right way to go about doing this?
[01:07] <Phr3d-13> i didn't think so, don't really know
[01:08] <pfifo> Phr3d-13, maybe gcc isnt using the -pipe option, hence dumping everything into /tmp
[01:08] <carldondesk> DasEi, I believe I'll be able to format.  The drive is laid out in NTFS on two parts sda1&2, 1 is boot.  do i delete then format to ext4?
[01:08] <pfifo> Phr3d-13, you should know exactly what your building, thats the whole point of compiling your own kernel :)
[01:08] <DasEi> carldondesk: is that a second disk ?
[01:09] <carldondesk> yes, i'm booted from jump
[01:09] <DasEi> carldondesk: and you want a fresh linux install after ?
[01:09] <carldondesk> yes
[01:10] <aleprovencio> Hello, why pressing the first letter of an item in order to select it on a combo box does not work ?
[01:10] <Phr3d-13> pfifo: i believe all i turned on was something to support my pci ide card
[01:10] <Phr3d-13> pfifo: i re-compiled from this guide http://it-kediri.com/?p=80
[01:11] <invisiblek> any ideas why i would be having a 37% packet loss with my iwl3945 wireless card pinging my router? the other laptop here right next to me doesn't lose one
[01:11] <DasEi> carldondesk: then you can just choose make new partitontable, then use the installer (which also could have done that), you're aware that all data on that drive is lost then, nor ?
[01:11] <pfifo> Phr3d-13, all that did was take me to some youtube clone site
[01:11] <Phr3d-13> pfifo: hmmmmm
[01:11] <Phr3d-13> hang on
[01:11] <carldondesk> dasei yes i'm aware, i've backed up important stuff
[01:12] <Phr3d-13> it takes me to a how to compile your kernel guide
[01:12] <joshlegs> howdy
[01:12] <carldondesk> i actually wanted to install from network, i have the install iso on my laptop
[01:13] <joshlegs> hey, ubuntu doesnt need antivirus right ?
[01:13] <DasEi> carldondesk: np then, device > new table > msdos
[01:13] <DasEi> !virus | joshlegs
[01:13] <pfifo> Phr3d-13, well I doubt there much there to explain disk usage. Is there anyreason why you need to limit disk usage during compile?
[01:13] <lalejand> pfifo : I solved my dpkg error
[01:13] <joshlegs> gracias dasei
[01:14] <pfifo> !yay lalejand
[01:14] <joshlegs> i thought that was the case and have been reading about it, i just wasnt sure where a good source for it all was :D
[01:14] <pfifo> !yay | lalejand
[01:14] <Phr3d-13> pfifo: almost ran out of space compiling the kernel, but now its done, and i can't figure out which one it is
[01:14] <lalejand> pfifo : I created the file /var/lib/dpkg/info/xdg-utils.list and pasted what I found there : http://ns2.canonical.com/fr/natty/all/xdg-utils/filelist
[01:15] <joshlegs> dasei what about a firewall? That's different from antivirus, right?
[01:15] <joshlegs> !firewall
[01:15] <lalejand> pfifo : looks like the file had been transformer into a folder with a .db inside !?
[01:15] <pfifo> Phr3d-13, should be in arch/i386/ (or x86)
[01:15] <DasEi> joshlegs: yes, look at gufw
[01:15] <DasEi> !firewall
[01:15] <joshlegs> :D ubottu i love you
[01:15] <DasEi> ah
[01:17] <Phr3d-13> pfifo: no arch folder
[01:18] <pfifo> Phr3d-13, well if your guide omits that part then it might as well be a youtube clone
[01:18] <Phr3d-13> i just realised i didn't follow the guide for the make
[01:18] <Phr3d-13> i just used make instead of this long command
[01:19] <pfifo> !kernel | Phr3d-13 this is the real kernel compiling guide
[01:21] <skypce> hi , i run top and xorg conssumes almost 100% of cpu, i have a gma 4500 helpme please!!!
[01:22] <pfifo> skypce, why is that a problem?
[01:22] <Phr3d-13> pfifo: http://pastebin.com/ktxLarJT   pasted guide i followed and the one diff i did
[01:22] <skypce> the system works very slow
[01:23] <skypce> pfifo:
[01:23] <qin> skypce: Can you paste top output? Or at least line for "xorg"
[01:23] <pfifo> Phr3d-13, 12. Once the kernel is built it will be one directory up in the ~/source file we were originally working in.
[01:24] <Da|Mummy> ive got a folder with 300 files, i want to compress each of those files into seperate .7z format, not all of them into one, but each into its own, whats the right way to go about doing this?
[01:24] <Phr3d-13> but i didn't follow the make directions
[01:24] <Phr3d-13> does that still apply if i just used make?
[01:24] <qin> Da|Mummy: for i in *; do foo; done
[01:24] <pfifo> Phr3d-13, not sure, i build kernel with `make -j3`
[01:25] <skypce> 1766 root      20   0 91628  23m  12m R   36  1.2   3:54.72 Xorg
[01:25] <Phr3d-13> where does it put it when its done for you?
[01:25] <Da|Mummy> qin, do i sudo first?
[01:25] <qin> Da|Mummy: em?
[01:25] <Da|Mummy> doesnt do foo require sudo?
[01:25] <pfifo> Phr3d-13, something like arch/i386/vmlinuz
[01:25] <qin> Da|Mummy: No, cd to folder where files are first
[01:26] <why-not> Da|mummy:Nope, as long as you can write in the target dir
[01:26] <pfifo> Phr3d-13, might be kernel/arch/i386/vmlinuz
[01:26] <qin> Da|Mummy: "foo" is "dummy command", for showing things
[01:27] <PabloRD> Hi, what are a good screen recorder for linux?
[01:27] <Da|Mummy> ok im obviously a little slow on terminal commands
[01:28] <rww> !screencast | PabloRD
[01:28] <qin> skypce: Try rather htop to see what hogging system
[01:28] <why-not> skypce: sudo apt-get install htop
[01:28] <why-not> then run htop from terminal
[01:29] <usr13> skypce: Looks like only 36%
[01:29] <qin> Da|Mummy: Do you know command to commpress file to 7z ?
[01:29] <Da|Mummy> nope
[01:29] <skypce> thank you why-not
[01:30] <qin> What is command to compress file to 7z ?
[01:30] <Dulak> qin: 7z a archivename.7z filepath/filename
[01:30] <skypce> 1766 root      20   0 89240 23884 12048 R 16.0  1.2  5:07.88 /usr/bin/Xorg :0 -br -verbose -audit 0 -novtswitch -auth /var/run/gdm3/auth-for-Debian-gdm-lMIjE9/database
[01:30] <why-not> qin:should be "7z a test.7z file1.txt"
[01:30] <Dulak> qin: 7z -h
[01:31] <qin> Dulak: 7z -h <file>, right?
[01:31] <carldonlap> DasEi,  ok, I had to restart into recovery mode, that gave me access to cfdisk and my disk is now showing   Pri/Log  Free Space, but the jump drive boot isn't giving me the option to install ubuntu to hard drive, it's just giving me a mobileCarl login
[01:31] <skypce> why-not:  it is my paste
[01:31] <Dulak> qin: 7z a archivename.7z files
[01:32] <skypce> it is unstable some times xorg is 16% other 70 %  etc
[01:33] <DasEi> carldonlap: jumpdrive is usb-stick ? and if you boot safe mode via hd, it's still mounted, readonly
[01:33] <why-not> Skypc: its says 16.0% cpu
[01:33] <apporc> hello , my grub can find ,but can't record my newly installed gentoo in grub.cfg.what's the reason.
[01:33] <pfifo> skypce, thats cause xorg is niced to run only when your system is idle, something else is causing your performance issue
[01:33] <why-not> skypc: you can try a sudo /etc/init.dgdm restart
[01:33] <qin> Da|Mummy: From directory where files are: mkdir ../archiv && for i in * ; do 7z a ../archiv/"$1".7z $1; done
[01:33] <why-not> this will restart your x session
[01:34] <pfifo> apporc, manage grub with gentoo
[01:34] <qin> Da|Mummy: Not certain, if it copes with bad filenames...
[01:34] <Da|Mummy> i need exact same filename :|
[01:34] <Da|Mummy> ill give it a shot though
[01:34] <skypce> pfifo:  and how can i fix igt
[01:35] <Dulak> qin: that would pick up . files like . and ..
[01:35] <DasEi> apporc: try sudo os-prober
[01:35] <carldonlap> dasei, no i've been booting from just a usb-stick the whole time, original system only had win7 and my dvd player conked out on me, so i put ubuntu on a jump drive
[01:35] <qin> Dulak: As far as i know is it last recommnded in #bash
[01:36] <pfifo> skypce, add an entry to /etc/grub.d/40_custom if you insist on managing grub on ubuntu
[01:36] <pfifo> skypce, disregard that
[01:36] <rww> Dulak: no it doesn't :)
[01:36] <pfifo> apporc, add an entry to /etc/grub.d/40_custom if you insist on managing grub on ubuntu
[01:36] <carldonlap> dasei - thought it was an actual installer.  i might try to network install but it looks pretty complicated.
[01:37] <skypce> uff
[01:37] <apporc> Thanks in advance.
[01:37] <qin> Da|Mummy: the last $1 sould be "$1"
[01:37] <DasEi> carldonlap: and the usb has no option for install ? neither at bootup or as icon on desktop ? which iso did you use ?
[01:37] <skypce> i will search info in google thank you guys
[01:37] <apporc> pfifo: I have done that.but the same 10.04.2 ubuntu ,my friends' grub can find his gentoo and record it in grub.cfg
[01:38] <pfifo> apporc, ive had it go both ways, in arc i get mixed results too
[01:38] <carldonlap> no my only options from grub are ubu and ubu recov, i think i got the wrong app for jump install
[01:38] <pfifo> apporc, henc I dont ever let ubuntu do anything boot loader related anymore
[01:38] <why-not> apporc:silly question, but is your gentoo partition bootable? (boot flag set?)
[01:39] <carldonlap> forget what it's called now, but it lets you pick from a whole list of linux releases or specify your own iso
[01:39] <why-not> Carlonlap:You can just download and put a regurlar ubuntu desktop cd iso on a usb stick (howto on ubuntu.com)
[01:40] <why-not> this lets you boot into a live desktop and install, or install directly without the live desktop
[01:40] <Da|Mummy> qin, im having no luck
[01:41] <why-not> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download
[01:41] <carldonlap> ok why-not, i should probably have RTFM before i started anyway =)  no adventure if you don't jump head firest
[01:41] <DasEi> carldonlap: which os are you talking from now ?
[01:41] <why-not> ^^
[01:41] <carldonlap> i'm on my laptop now, 1.0.4
[01:41] <carldonlap> 11*
[01:42] <why-not> Carlonlap:making a usb stick under ubuntu is super easy
[01:42] <why-not> system --> administration --> startup disk creator
[01:42] <qin> Da|Mummy: can you: 1. paste output of ls -1 ; 2. for i in *; do echo that is "$i"; done  and paste it too, to paste.ubuntu.com"
[01:43] <DasEi> carldonlap: d/l regular desktop-iso, use unetbootin, that provides an installer, same with netinstall or alternate, re-record udbdrive and
[01:43] <DasEi> !md5sum
[01:43] <apporc> why-not:no , boot flag not set.
[01:43] <why-not> apporc:might be why grub is skipping partition
[01:43] <why-not> not bootable
[01:44] <carldonlap> thanks a lot dasei, i think i'm on the right track now
[01:45] <qin> Does anyone used successfuly ffmpeg with -vhook in Ubuntu?
[01:45] <bladerunner> #join bluelighted
[01:45] <mrdeb> hi bladerunner
[01:45] <pfifo> apporc, that shouldn't matter, does os-prober show you gentoo install?
[01:45] <qin> bladerunner: /j #blu...
[01:47] <seanmc98> hey guys i have a question
[01:47] <Polah> !ask | seanmc98
[01:47] <Polah> Could anyone point me in a direction to find out more about virtual filesystems?
[01:48] <apporc> pfifo: yes ,os-prober show that.
[01:48] <pfifo> Polah, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GVFS
[01:48] <why-not> Polah:how do you mean? as in virtual harddisks, encrypted volumes or as in lvm?
[01:48] <why-not> Polah, nvm my comment
[01:49] <seanmc98> ok. so i downloaded ubuntu (the latest one) and burnt it to a cd but my laptop cant boot from a CD or USB so i copied it to the hard drive so that when it boots it asks to boot windows xp or ubuntu and it stops at something with the kernel that i have been told it is a kernel panic. my laptop has a 10 gig HDD and 64 mb or RAM any help?
[01:49] <apporc> why-not:i toggle a boot flag for that partition ,but grub-update still won't record it in grub.cfg
[01:49] <DasEi> apporc: so it's in grub now :)
[01:50] <pfifo> apporc, grub-update from debain isnt really fool proof, it probably dosent know what it needs to write in the grub.cfg so just skips it all together
[01:50] <qin> seanmc98: 64mb seems to below standart
[01:50] <Polah> why-not: I have a webserver and I was looking around through SSH and noticed that my home directory had something like 900GB usage while I've only used 15GB myself. I figure it's some setup where there's a filesystem there but a virtual system on top for each user and they can only really access their own. I was interested on the setup and benefits of this and wanted to look into setting it up for my own server
[01:51] <seanmc98> i know but i have bought ram and when i boot up pc with the ram it wont boot up
[01:51] <apporc> pfifo: ok, but though os-prober found gentoo but , there are still no gentoo in grub.cfg
[01:51] <why-not> seanmc98:you can try xubuntu instead, is smaller in use.
[01:51] <qin> seanmc98: Wrong type of ram?
[01:51] <pfifo> apporc, probably dosent know which file is the kernel, and debian uses a initrd, gentoo does not
[01:52] <seanmc98> i guess but the ram was supposed to work woth the pc
[01:52] <DasEi> apporc: you can manually add it to /etc/grub.d/40_custom, case fail
[01:52] <apporc> DasEi: it's still not in grub
[01:52] <apporc> pfifo: thanks.
[01:52] <apporc> DasEi:thanks.
[01:52] <qin> seanmc98: Lets start from bios, did you check boot order?
[01:52] <why-not> Polah:If you are root (sudo) and do a "do -hs /home*" does it not show all the data
[01:53] <qin> why-not: du -sh
[01:53] <why-not> or are you not root on that box, then its simply a filesystem rights thingy
[01:53] <seanmc98> im sorry but i am not too familiar with computers
[01:53] <why-not> du -hs *
[01:53] <pfifo> seanmc98, who put the RAM in the computer?
[01:54] <why-not> gives totals
[01:54] <seanmc98> i was given the computer the way it was
[01:54] <seanmc98> so my moms boyfriends brother
[01:54] <qin> seanmc98: When it boots, at the bottom (first few seconds) is written press F2 for setup, press F2 or whatever it wants.
[01:54] <DasEi> apporc: you want me to pastebin an exampel entry ?
[01:55] <seanmc98> why-not: do u suggets 10.4 or 11.4?
[01:55] <seanmc98> qin: not this one
[01:55] <why-not> seanmc98: for desktop i always use latest
[01:55] <apporc> DasEi:no ,i have done that from the beginning . I just don't know why it can't do it grub itself.
[01:55] <seanmc98> but i have to press F2 to boot into bios
[01:56] <seanmc98> bios being the greyish and blue screen
[01:56] <apporc> DasEi: And when my friends use the same version of ubuntu ,the same version of gentoo .just his gentoo is in ext3 filesystem , and his grub can recoard his gentoo.
[01:56] <qin> seanmc98: Yes
[01:56] <DasEi> apporc: I also wonder, I've seen osprober not finding another os, but not if so not updating, look in there, maybe it gone there
[01:56] <why-not> seanmc98:in the bios you can usually set boot priority (e.g. 1cdrom 2harddisk)
[01:57] <DasEi> (/etc/grub.d/40_custom), apporc
[01:57] <seanmc98> let me boot up old laptop into bios
[01:57] <seanmc98> hold on
[01:57] <DasEi> apporc: os-prober even works on ntfs
[01:58] <ohhi> does anyone know how i can use two umts network cards at the same time ?
[01:58] <EmuAlert> Is there any way to restore Ubuntu how it was, say, a week ago?
[01:58] <apporc> I will read the script myself . I think it is about grub-mkconfig
[01:59] <seanmc98> ok i am in bios
[01:59] <airtonix> mounting remote ssh server with nautilus doesn't create the usual directory structure in ~/.gvfs anymore
[01:59] <qin> seanmc98: Do you see boot, options order something?
[01:59] <why-not> seanmc98: got any option regarding to boot device prio ?
[02:00] <pfifo> EmuAlert, no, but you can make incremental backups to prevent fture mishaps
[02:00] <why-not> qin:lol
[02:00] <seanmc98> yes
[02:00] <qin> why-not: Was waiting for you like a minute before hitting Enter.
[02:00] <seanmc98> it goes in order from floppy, internal hard drive then CDROM?DVD
[02:00] <why-not> seanmc98:try to set it up so your cdrom drive is 1st priority
[02:00] <why-not> qin:yeah i am slow, sorry
[02:00] <why-not> qin:its late over here
[02:01] <qin> Mon Jul 11 03:01:21 BST 2011
[02:01] <seanmc98> ok
[02:01] <why-not> Mon Jul 11 04:01:31 CEST 2011
[02:02] <why-not> seanmc98:now you should be able to boot from a cd
[02:02] <airtonix> ?? how is it possible for nautilus to access a ssh share via it's bookmarks and not create the ~/.gvfs/ssh at servername/  ? it usually does, but today it hasn't (even though i can browse the ssh server in nautilus)
[02:02] <airtonix> no i haven't mounted it with sshfs
[02:03] <why-not> seanmc98:if you have downloaded a iso and burned it to a cd you should be able to boot form it
[02:03] <lintux> why-not: if he saves the settings
[02:03] <pfifo> airtonix, `?.gvfs is the old method, new and updated apps use a URI syntax
[02:03] <seanmc98> it still sticks at kernel
[02:03] <why-not> lintux:true
[02:03] <pfifo> ~/.gvfs
[02:03] <why-not> seanmc98:what message ?
[02:03] <airtonix> pfifo: i don't think you understand what i'm saying
[02:04] <pfifo> airtonix, i perfectly understand what your saying
[02:04] <why-not> seanmc: you might need to install from the alternate installer cd, because of the low memory in your system
[02:04] <qin> seanmc98: There is no way Ubuntu will boot from CD with 64mb.
[02:04] <airtonix> pfifo no actually i don't think you do. : i don't care if it's the old method.  it's what my ubuntu 10.10 has been using for the last 3 months its what my desktop uses and still uses... but today without updates it doesn't create the gvfs directory structure
[02:05] <seanmc98> [   12.224915]   [<c100367e>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x6/0x10
[02:06] <lintux> being silly can i boot my commodore 64 with ubuntu?
[02:06] <seanmc98> why-not: [   12.224915]   [<c100367e>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x6/0x10
[02:06] <pfifo> airtonix, I have no idea why it changed, you should be able to force it, although Im not sure how
[02:07] <rww> lintux: no
[02:07] <lintux> k
[02:07] <why-not> seanmc98:hmm, no clue
[02:07] <airtonix> pfifo: so where is the information about the changes ?
[02:08] <why-not> qin:i am actually trying a install in a 64mb virtual machine to see what happens ;)
[02:08] <why-not> qin:its booting in text mode so far
[02:09] <qin> why-not: But cd require more ram than vm or vbox install.
[02:09] <seanmc98> what do u mean 64mb
[02:09] <qin> seanmc98: ram
[02:09] <seanmc98> ohh
[02:10] <why-not> qin:i am guessing he has to use the laternate install to get it installed
[02:10] <why-not> qin: dont know how fast it will run tho
[02:10] <seanmc98> so if that works will it work for me?
[02:10] <pfifo> airtonix, no idea
[02:10] <why-not> seanmc98:in theory
[02:10] <seanmc98> why-not: do u know how to format a HDD and reinstall windows xp?
[02:11] <airtonix> pfifo: so how do you know its "the old method"
[02:11] <qin> why-not: Or lighter distro, not certain what it lubuntu requiment.
[02:11] <why-not> seanmc98:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems , this might help. Its a tad outdated
[02:11] <why-not> qin:would be better, or xubuntu
[02:11] <qin> seanmc98: You want insatll and run linux? or just use it from cd?
[02:12] <pfifo> airtonix, cause gvfs replaced the older GnomeVFS system. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GVFS
[02:12] <seanmc98> install and run it as my primary OS
[02:12] <why-not> seanmc98:if you have a xp cd, boot from xp cd, you can format form installaion
[02:12] <mrdeb> lubuntu is not lighter
[02:13] <why-not> seanmc98:but i wonder if xp will run anything near to decent on your hardware
[02:13] <seanmc98> well i only have one blank cd left
[02:13] <seanmc98> i am running xp now on it
[02:13] <seanmc98> its super super slow
[02:13] <why-not> with all updates including sp3 and a virusscanner?
[02:13] <qin> seanmc98: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Linux_distributions#Live_media
[02:13] <why-not> seanmc98:that is what i would expect
[02:14] <seanmc98> so im confused what is the best version of linux to run on my machine?
[02:14] <pfifo> seanmc98, 2.6 is the best linux version by far :)
[02:15] <seanmc98> but for my laptop?
[02:15] <lintux> DSL
[02:15] <extraclassic> seanmc98: what you choose depends on the specs of your hardware
[02:15] <qin> seanmc98: I guess, carefully sescted puppy (lightest possible)
[02:15] <qin> *selected
[02:16] <seanmc98> qin: can u help me select?
[02:16] <mnemonic76> I had a cli-only installation of 10.10 working and upgraded to 11.04, now basic graphics are totally hosed, cant see the ubuntu (purple) screen or any prompts... white vertical bands on screen only... looks like a broken atari.
[02:16] <seanmc98> and with  the link i was sent what about feather linux?
[02:16] <airtonix> pfifo: surely this didn't happen over the weekend.
[02:16] <pfifo> mnemonic76, are you using a nvidia card?
[02:16] <mrdeb> atari i cool
[02:16] <airtonix> pfifo: without me updating
[02:17] <extraclassic> seanmc98: if you've never used linux don't pick an obscure one
[02:17] <seanmc98> well then i am completely clueless
[02:17] <pfifo> airtonix, no it didnt, i cant tell you why it changed on your system without doing anything.
[02:18] <mnemonic76> pfifo: it is an onboard video on an older compaq... not sure.. checking spec sheets
[02:18] <extraclassic> seanmc98: I started with ubuntu 10.04, then tried a bunch of them, and now i'm using ubuntu 10.04 again
[02:18] <pfifo> seanmc98, get the ubuntu 10.04 livecd, you can install ubuntu/xubuntu/kubuntu with it, and ubuntu has the best support for new users
[02:18] <seanmc98> extraclassic: i only have 64mb of ram though
[02:18] <why-not> mnemonic76:depending on how old your gonna see nasty stuff like sis ;)
[02:19] <extraclassic> seanmc98: lubuntu might work
[02:19] <seanmc98> can someone link me to the lightest possible verion of puppy linux?
[02:20] <IdleOne> seanmc98: try puppylinux.org
[02:20] <justin__234> unity is crappp
[02:20] <seanmc98> just found it
[02:20] <IdleOne> seanmc98: also that has nothing to do with ubuntu
[02:20] <extraclassic> I can't stand puppy linux
[02:20] <seanmc98> well i was origionally told to use linux
[02:21] <seanmc98> ubuntu i mean
[02:21] <rww> !classic
[02:21] <justin__234> classis is good
[02:21] <why-not> justin_234:i kinda like unity, especially for less advanced users
[02:21] <qin> seanmc98: Get iso from there: http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/puppylinux/puppy-4.3/
[02:21] <mnemonic76> pfifo: OMG, i just went through hell getting this damn thing to this version for my friend... now its like totally borked. any ideas? is there a key to press for a different gfx mode, or ANYTHING?
[02:22] <qin> seanmc98: If this will not boot, there is DSL and slax (but bit more hectic than puppy)
[02:23] <pfifo> mnemonic76, there are a handful of options you can pass to the kernel at boot time, there is a factoid about it, one sec
[02:23] <seanmc98> what do i click from that link qin
[02:23] <xangua> !ot | qin seanmc98
[02:23] <qin> xangua: Ok
[02:23] <seanmc98> qin: pm?
[02:23] <joshlegs> hey how do i recognize ports that are open on my computer? >.. i.e., how do i know if someone is listening to my ports?
[02:23] <joshlegs> i did the sudo netstat -plntu    command
[02:23] <van7hu> hello
[02:23] <why-not> qin:ubuntu did not boot with 64mb ram, puppy does
[02:24] <why-not> just tested in my vm ;)
[02:24] <joshlegs> hmmm can somebody tell me ... is a foreign computer listening to my ports ? http://pastebin.com/88ZSK1jv
[02:25] <seanmc98> why-not: how do u set up a VM? on windows 7
[02:25] <pfifo> mnemonic76, this is a bootoptions howto, and on it is a link to a list of options https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[02:25] <mnemonic76> pfifo: thanks... fingers crossed.
[02:25] <why-not> seanmc98: you can use virtualisation softwar like free vmware player, or virtual box
[02:25] <seanmc98> ok
[02:25] <johnnynyquist> Any syslinux experts around?
[02:26] <why-not> seanmc98: then you create a virtual machine with your preferred settings and you can amulate a complete pc
[02:26] <__sephiroth> Alright so I just had a bunch of applications stop working... i re dled them and they worked perfectly fine
[02:26] <__sephiroth> I didn't change any configs... What would be the culprit?
[02:26] <pfifo> joshlegs, i dont see any connections listed
[02:26] <why-not> joshlegs:sudo netstat -an should do the trick
[02:27] <mrdeb> what's a good file manager that is fast
[02:27] <johnnynyquist> I am trying to boot into memtest from a USB stick.. I used unetbootin and it gets to the boot screen but will not boot the image
[02:27] <joshlegs> so i did the wrong command to see if someone else is listening why-not?
[02:27] <why-not> mrdeb:mc ?
[02:28] <extraclassic> mrdeb: ordered by speed ->  pcmanfm -> thunar -> nautilus -> dolphin
[02:28] <pfifo> joshlegs, other computers cant 'listen', the term your looking for is 'connect'
[02:28] <joshlegs> http://pastebin.com/MvPL4G6F    the sudo nestat -an command
[02:28] <joshlegs> ohhh thanks pfifo ... gracias
[02:29] <rww> mrdeb: nautilus
[02:29] <joshlegs> how would i recognize computers making a connection anyway?
[02:29] <why-not> joshlegs: -l is only your listening ports, so not connected
[02:29] <pfifo> joshlegs, it depends on protocol
[02:30] <mnemonic76> pfifo: Well, good news is I can hold shift and get into grub2 boot menu... bad news is so far none of the options behaves any differently. recovery mode and older kernels=same result.
[02:30] <why-not> joshlegs: -a (all) -n (show port numbers instead of names)
[02:30] <joshlegs> ooh ok why-not i think i got ya
[02:31] <why-not> joshlegs:tcp        0      0 192.168.101.4:48442     74.125.77.148:80        ESTABLISHED is a connected tcp sesiion
[02:31] <why-not> oh noes, ubuntu has quit ;-)
[02:31] <pfifo> why-not, thats outbound
[02:31] <mnemonic76> pfifo: if i hit 'e' to edit the command there is an option 'set gfxpayload=$linux_gfx_mode' this looks promising. I am totally out of the grub2 loop though.
[02:31] <why-not> pfifo, in my case yes
[02:32] <why-not> i dont have inbound on my host
[02:32] <joshlegs> why-not, you know that because of the 192.168.101.4   (the 101.4 part) ???
[02:32] <pfifo> joshlegs, ESTABLISHED
[02:32] <joshlegs> ohhh ok
[02:32] <joshlegs> and how did you know it was an outbount instead of inbound ??
[02:33] <why-not> 192.168.101.4 is my local ip
[02:33] <pfifo> joshlegs, you should do some research about tow tcp/ip and udp work, your making some assumptions that are wrong ;)
[02:33] <why-not> which originates this connection
[02:33] <joshlegs> pfifo i've been looking around trying to understand everything. it's just hard to know where to start :(
[02:33] <mnemonic76> pfifo: Im checking out some man pages... thanks for your help!
[02:34] <pfifo> mnemonic76, good luck, hope you get it
[02:34] <why-not> joshlegs:http://pastebin.com/8h0N7LTt is form my server, inbound and outbound
[02:35] <pfifo> joshlegs, this is a great start http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Protocol_Suite
[02:35] <joshlegs> :D gotta love wiki.    why-not, how come you have so many established connections ?
[02:35] <fumbles_> have y'all gents had issues with irssi and irssiproxy? I keep receiving a connection refused…feel like a noob :(
[02:36] <joshlegs> did it have something to do with this ?  --> root@surfert:~# netstat -an   Active Internet connections (servers and established)
[02:36] <why-not> joshlegs:cause its my server, it does stuff ;)
[02:36] <joshlegs> ohhhh :D got ya lol
[02:36] <pfifo> why-not, is that bitcoin?
[02:36] <why-not> joshlegs: root is the username i ran it under, surfert ias the hostname of my server
[02:36] <rww> root :(
[02:36] <__sephiroth> I have bad sectors on my hard drive. How do I fix that?
[02:36] <Crimson22> Can someone help me with why this PuTTY command doesn't work. I've ssh'd into the right directory, and want to copy the file COH.csv out of it.
[02:36] <Crimson22> pscp COH.csv Crimson@192.168.0.197:C:\Users\Crimson\Documents\Stats
[02:36] <why-not> rww:lazy :-/
[02:37] <joshlegs> ok. i didnt know if maybe since you were the root user if it made more connections somehow ...
[02:37] <why-not> _sephirot:buy a new harddrive, its failing in a hardware kinda way
[02:37]  * joshlegs is very unfamiliar with computeys, obviously :(
[02:37] <why-not> joshlegs: root makes it show all connections, but if your wise like rww you always use sudo instead of logging in as root ;)
[02:38] <bsdyy> hi everyone
[02:38] <anadon> hey, what does a typical grub2 entry look for win 7?
[02:38] <joshlegs> :P i do always use sudo. i hear logging in as root can make it easy to bleepedy your system :D lol
[02:38] <why-not> joshlegs: correct, be careful with sudo as well ;)
[02:39] <bsdyy> ubuntu is free but have much problems ,macosx is better
[02:39] <joshlegs> :D will do why-not  :) im used to just using windows, where all you do is click something .... and you cant really find this stuff out that i know of there
[02:39] <pfifo> joshlegs, windows has netstat too
[02:40] <anadon> bsdyy: but its not terribly great in comparison of features, compatability, and customability
[02:40] <bsdyy> windows suck
[02:40] <joshlegs> it does? I didnt know .. how do you access it, through command line? (DOS?) :S

[02:50] <usr13> sudo iwlist wlan0 scanning
[02:50] <usr13> but he needs to tell you the interface name
[02:50] <pfifo> arunkumar413_, what exactly is the problem?
[02:50] <dli> arunkumar413_, more info?
[02:51] <gogeta> arunkumar413_: you cna login as isngle user to reset your lost password
[02:51] <fbass> anyone know how to shut off monitor from the command line, console only?
[02:51] <gogeta> arunkumar413_: can
[02:51] <qin> arunkumar413_: sudo fdisk -l (first paste)
[02:51] <edbian> usr13: The interface name is not necessary. It will try to scan using all interfaces.  It's scan not scanning
[02:51] <arunkumar413_> pfifo: i installed fedora 15 after ubuntu 11.04. i cant boot the 11.04
[02:52] <pfifo> !grub2 | arunkumar413_
[02:52] <gogeta> arunkumar413_: you mean grub isnt seeing it in the list
[02:52] <usr13> edbian: scan and scanning may both work, but the man file says scanning
[02:52] <gogeta> arunkumar413_: did you install over it?
[02:52] <joshlegs> so question: will the ipv6 thingy change the way programming is done much ??
[02:52] <edbian> usr13: I stand corrected!
[02:52] <pfifo> joshlegs, no
[02:53] <joshlegs> cool :) pfifo thanks. i was just wondering cuz it mentions it in that wiki you directed me to

[02:54] <joshlegs> grrrr.what should i learn first? More about the interwebz and programming there? or programming for software, etc?
[02:54] <arunkumar413_> pfifo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/641620/
[02:55] <rww> joshlegs: that's an #ubuntu-offtopic question ;)
[02:55] <arunkumar413_> hwq001: unable to mount the partitition that contains the ubuntu 11.04
[02:55] <joshlegs> doh. i thought it was for here :P i'll move it then :D
[02:55] <edbian> joshlegs: interwebs is software!
[02:55] <joshlegs> thats true, but i meant like webpage writing ..
[02:56] <edbian> joshlegs: That's html + css and is not programming
[02:56] <edbian> :)
[02:56] <eroscher> Hello there! do anyone of you have a Dell Vostro 3300?
[02:56] <i2iot> Can I install windows software using wine?
[02:56] <pfifo> arunkumar413_, there is a typo in your mount command
[02:56] <eroscher> or some troubles with intel graphics and extended video monitor with fuzzy images?
[02:56] <arunkumar413_> pfifo: what is that typo?
[02:56] <edbian> i2iot: yes but it is hard.  For application specific help go to winehq.com or #winehq
[02:57] <culpn8r> stoopid question... i have ubuntu partitioned on 20gb of my harddrive booting alongside win7. how do i uninstall ubuntu and the bootloader and get those 20gb back?
[02:57] <eroscher> (ubuntu 11.04)
[02:57] <pfifo> arunkumar413_, you need a space between the path to the device and the path to the mount point
[02:57] <bogdaniel> ermm what is bazaar notification in the menu ?
[02:57] <i2iot> edbian, thank ou!
[02:57] <edbian> i2iot: sure
[02:57] <xangua> culpn8r: delete it via gparted live cd
[02:58] <culpn8r> xangua: will that remove the bootloader as well?
[02:58] <bsdyy> wine sucks this software is incomplete
[02:58] <bsdyy> not installed
[02:58] <xangua> culpn8r: if you remove it
[02:58] <arunkumar413_> pfifo: can u tell me the actual command, i'm on ubuntu 11.04 live cd now
[02:58] <culpn8r> xangua: okay thanks
[02:58] <pfifo> arunkumar413_, sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
[02:59] <eroscher> (ubuntu 11.04)
[02:59] <eroscher> I'm pretty sure that my screen resolution and frecuency are right for my secondary screen and it looks fuzzy or pixelated (intel graphics, vostro 3300, ubuntu 11.04)
[03:00] <eroscher> can't tell what  to do with it
[03:00] <eroscher> :(
[03:01] <usr13> bsdyy: /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:01] <bsdyy> yes u bored girl
[03:01] <eroscher> where can I find some troubleshooting steps for this? i was looking on the ubuntu forums but found noting
[03:02] <arunkumar413_> pfifo: got this error while updating the grub
[03:02] <arunkumar413_> pfifo: probe: error: cannot stat `aufs'.
[03:02] <eroscher> i've seen the /var/log/Xorg.0.log without any clear signal
[03:02] <fbass> anyone know how I can blank my monitor from the console, I'm not running X; only console.
[03:02] <pfifo> arunkumar413_, just pastebin everything in the terminal so I can see what you did
[03:02] <eroscher> fbass: clearscr
[03:02] <eroscher> or clear
[03:02] <eroscher> (?)
[03:03] <eroscher> bash command
[03:03] <arunkumar413_> pfifo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/641621/
[03:04] <fbass> eroscher: I mean actually power off the monitor, not just clear the screen.
[03:04] <fbass> how can I adjust the power settings from the command line?
[03:04] <cronin> is there a way to show all packages you've installed with aptitude?
[03:04] <usr13> arunkumar413_: You need a space between /dev/sda1  &  /mnt
[03:05] <arunkumar413_> pfifo: do i need to mount the partition before updating the grub
[03:05] <rww> cronin: aptitude search ~i
[03:05] <usr13> arunkumar413_: never mind...haha
[03:05] <cronin> rww: awesome, thanks!
[03:05] <usr13> arunkumar413_: You've mounted it. Never mind.
[03:05] <pfifo> arunkumar413_, No, update-grub needs to be run from the install
[03:05] <rww> cronin: or "aptitude search \!~M~i" to show ones that are marked as manually installed (\! instead of ! because ! is special in bash)
[03:06] <cronin> rww: oh even better, thanks!
[03:06] <pfifo> arunkumar413_, you need to run `sudo chroot /mnt` and then run update-grub
[03:06] <rww> cronin: no problem, always nice to see an aptitude user in here (that's a much harder question to answer without aptitude ;)
[03:07] <eroscher> fbass, "echo off; clear" ????
[03:07] <eroscher> :P
[03:08] <eroscher> kidding
[03:08] <arunkumar413_> pfifo: but i'm not sure if the sda1 is the ubuntu 11.04

[03:11] <pfifo> mrdeb, aptitude dosent have super cow powers
[03:11] <rww> mrdeb: apt-get and aptitude are different frontends to apt
[03:13] <pfifo> arunkumar413_, `sudo umount /mnt && sudo mount /dev/sda7 /mnt && sudo chroot /mnt`

[03:28] <arunkumar413_> pfifo: now will i be able to boot all the three OS
[03:29] <pfifo> arunkumar413_, unless Im missing something, which i dont think I am, based on what you showed me
[03:29] <pfifo> arunkumar413_, if not boot a livecd and come back, well start from the top
[03:30] <arunkumar413_> pfifo: now i'm in live cd
[03:30] <HeTaL> qin: Nothing. I just want to split it randomly

[03:39] <tiktalik> soreau, where do I check?
[03:40] <soreau> tiktalik: Ideally, /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[03:40] <soreau> tiktalik: Your graphics driver should report several entries in capital letters
[03:40] <carldonlap> one config question i'd like to nip in the bud: my client accesses a router through wifi and my server runs through the router to connect to my wlan -. am i going to keep it that way or do i need another nic?

[03:42] <xangua> codingenesis: sure, install ubuntu over it
[03:42] <rww> codingenesis: Backtrack is not supported in this channel. Ask #backtrack-linux, or grab an Ubuntu CD and reformat.

[03:43] <pfifo> arunkumar413, hmm thats not good, lets try again, open a terminal and start with `sudo -s` everything here needs to be done as root
[03:43] <Zimopik> xangua: okay, i don't just feel like a linux noob anymore, but an idiot :) Thanks
[03:44] <rww> codingenesis: #ubuntu only supports Ubuntu and official derivatives. There is no supported way to move from Backtrack to Ubuntu other than a reinstall.

[03:46] <soreau> tiktalik: So you're using intel gpu. The only thing I can suggest is trying the xorg-edgers repo
[03:47] <soreau> tiktalik: xorg-edgers will update your graphics stack including X and the X driver

[03:51] <rww> soreau: do not give people instructions for using xorg-edgers without linking them to the xorg-edgers PPA page that says what I just said. Thanks.
[03:51] <rww> tiktalik: please read https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa before running what soreau said.

[03:53] <wsbl-uhpd651> Hello.  Can anyone tell me how to turn on avg 8.5 with terminal after installing it?
[03:53] <wsbl-uhpd651> the command "avgct1" does not work ...
[03:54] <wsbl-uhpd651> anyone?
[03:54] <billy_ran_away> 100% Completely off topic but does anyone have a more formal word for double down?  I.e. to take on more risk?
[03:54] <rww> billy_ran_away: perhaps you're looking for #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:55] <pfifo> arunkumar413, ok that looks perfect, reboot and test it out
[03:55] <Bipul> what kind of programme svn is ?
[03:55] <Sam98961> bill_ran_away:  man up
[03:55] <wsbl-uhpd651> I know you really don't need an anti-virus for linux.  However, I am being extra cautious ... so as to not be a virus host ...
[03:55] <Bipul> subversion ?
[03:55] <tiktalik> Bipul, svn is a version control system.
[03:55] <tiktalik> Look it up.
[03:55] <rww> wsbl-uhpd651: it is unlikely that anyone in here uses AVG. Try asking on their forums.
[03:55] <pfifo> !info subversion
[03:55] <arunkumar413> pfifo: in our earlier attempt also we did the same thing but it didn't boot. will it boot now
[03:56] <tiktalik> Subversion's also kinda nasty, I hear.
[03:56] <Sam98961> Has anyone had any luck with merging the contents of casper-rw to filesystem.squashfs without screwing a ton of stuff up?  Ubuntu 10.04 and higher.
[03:56] <pfifo> arunkumar413, I think it was cause you install grub to /dev/sda1 instead of /dev/sda7, I thought update-grub would 'update grub' but I guess it didnt
[03:56] <Bipul> svn co http://svn.asterisk.org/svn/asterisk/branches/1.6.2 1.6.2-vanilla   <-- when i am trying to install it i get Message The program 'svn' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[03:56] <Bipul> apt-get install subversion
[03:56] <pfifo> arunkumar413, im pretty confident that it willl boot this time
[03:56] <wsbl-uhpd651> K.  does anyone on here currently use avg?
[03:57] <Aple> How do I protect my pc from viruses/spyware on Ubuntu? I'm a newb
[03:57] <wsbl-uhpd651> If so, can you help?
[03:57] <pfifo> Aple, keep the power turned off
[03:57] <rww> Bipul: it seems like there are rather obvious directions therwe
[03:57] <Aple> pfifo: What? How will that protect me?
[03:58] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: I am currently having the same dillemma.  I think "pfifo" is just joking.
[03:58] <Pici> !antivirus | wsbl-uhpd651 Aple
[03:58] <Aple> Yeah, I'm not trying to be an ass or anything. I have no idea how Ubuntu security and such works. I just want to know how to protect myself.
[03:58] <pfifo> Aple, wsbl-uhpd651 linux dosent have rampant virus infection like other popular OS, you dont need or want an anti-virus
[03:59] <Aple> Thanks pfifo
[03:59] <arunkumar413> pfifo: before making our first attempt the default boot loader was of fedora's which is not grub 2
[03:59] <Aple> Vierd. What makes Linux so special?
[03:59] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: Most virus out there (usually written to affect Windows systems) will not affect your Linux OS.
[03:59] <Bipul> IF you are Linux user you it'self a special ;)
[03:59] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: However, you can still be a virus host (i.e. pass a virus to a Windows user) without even knowing it.
[03:59] <Aple> No one writes viruses for Linux users?
[04:00] <pfifo> arunkumar413, I have no idea what fedora uses, their usually up on tech though so im guessing grub2
[04:00] <arunkumar413> pfifo: no its not grub 2. its the older one
[04:00] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: To my knowledge - there are a few out there written for Linux.  But in general, the chances of you getting one of these is slim?  Can anyone back me up on this statement?
[04:01] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: I believe this is the case regarding the Linux viruses.
[04:01] <pfifo> Aple, its because every piece of software you install will come from ubuntu.com theres no way for someone to get a virus on your system unless you really go out of your way to get one on purpose
[04:01] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: check this out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus
[04:01] <doolph> Hola
[04:02] <carldoncarl> Error mounting: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0, and get    ---    dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/641642/
[04:02] <Sazpaimon> I like how I told FloodBot1 that I prefer gentoo, yet he invited me here anyway
[04:03] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: "pfifo" is right.
[04:03] <new2u> what about a fire wall for ubuntu, how effective is ufw?
[04:03] <rww> new2u: very
[04:04] <wsbl-uhpd651> new2u: never knew about ufw?  I've used firestarter - is this less effective than ufw?
[04:04] <Aple> Hm... Very interesting indeed
[04:04] <Aple> Thanks pfifo and wsbl-uhpd651
[04:04] <rww> firestarter is unmaintained, obsolete, and prone to having issues. use ufw instead.
[04:04] <wsbl-uhpd651> rww: how do I install ufw?
[04:05] <rww> wsbl-uhpd651: it's already installed on Ubuntu by default
[04:05] <rww> !ufw
[04:05] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: you may want to pay attention to his firewall discussion - this will prevent viruses from getting onto your computer as well ...
[04:06] <rww> Ubuntu has no open ports by default, so a firewall is irrelevant, but some people use it as a safety blanket.
[04:06] <Aple> Bleh, screw it all
[04:06] <arunkumar413> pfifo: i'm going to reboot now
[04:06] <Aple> I'm just devving locally
[04:06] <pfifo> arunkumar413, good luck
[04:06] <Aple> Good to learn though
[04:06] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: Check this out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW.  Use the "sudo ufw default deny" command to turn on the ufw firewall - which is alreay inbuilt into Ubuntu ...
[04:07] <rww> that's not how you turn on ufw, and that setting is set by default anyway
[04:07] <rww> I think you meant "sudo ufw enable"
[04:07] <new2u> bookmark Iptables howto
[04:07] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: This is something I did not know before.  OK - as "rww" stated "sudo ufw enable" ...
[04:07] <Aple> So I can't get spyware from sites either?
[04:07] <rww> nobody bothers writing spyware for Ubuntu
[04:08] <pfifo> Aple, you can get malicious browser plugins, but but thats about it.
[04:08] <new2u> you mean nobody but microsoft
[04:08] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: And you can install add-ons in Firefox - to prevent/block these from hitting your system ...
[04:09] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: Don't install too many of add-ons, though - it could bog down your browser in terms of it performing efficiently and quickly.  At this has been my experience ...
[04:09] <rww> new2u: Microsoft also does not write spyware for Ubuntu.
[04:09] <Aple> pfifo: Any protection against that?
[04:10] <Aple> Oops
[04:10] <Aple> What about Chromium?
[04:10] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: ... which means be selective in the add-ons you choose.  There is often more than one add-on that does essentially the same thing ...
[04:10] <Aple> Chromium seems a lot faster than FF
[04:10] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: What are people's opinions about Chromium?
[04:10] <new2u> ok rw point taken and thanks for the heads up about Iptables
[04:11] <wsbl-uhpd651> What are people's opinions about Chromium?
[04:11] <Bipul> can any one tell me the way through which i know which version of python is installed on my ubuntu
[04:11] <feli> i not speak inglis
[04:11] <feli> i español
[04:11] <rww> Bipul: python -V
[04:11] <rww> !es | feli
[04:11] <Aple> wsbl: It seems to be pretty fast
[04:11] <pfifo> Aple, just dont install any plugins, flash and java are all you really need
[04:11] <soreau> rww: Sorry but I am failing to find 'what you just said'
[04:12] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: Personally, I've always been leary of using Google Chromium - because it's more of direct line to Google tracking your web usage ...
[04:12] <Aple> Java doesn't come packaged with Ubuntu eh?
[04:12] <soreau> rww: How do you know microsoft does not write spyware for ubuntu?
[04:12] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: But it's not like Google doesn't do that ANYWAY ...
[04:12] <Aple> Personally I don't care if Google tracks me
[04:12] <Aple> Yeah seriously
[04:12] <rww> soreau: the xorg-edgers PPA description specifically says not to give people instructions for using xorg-edgers without giving them the PPA description page
[04:12] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: Cool.  Then you're good :)  Use Chromium, then - if you are happy with it ...
[04:12] <Aple> Besides, they offer a ton of stuff for free. So what if they want to market stuff -at- me?
[04:13] <rww> soreau: "** Please do not publish instructions for how to install from this archive without linking to this page! Anyone using packages from this archive is expected to read this page first and it is recommended to check back occasionally for notice on problems that may arise. **"
[04:13] <Aple> I use FF on my html/css designer computer (firebug ;))

[04:13] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: Good point.  You feel comfortable with it - so good for you.
[04:13] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: :)
[04:13] <soreau> rww: Fine but it is impossible for you to have knowledge that microsoft does not write spyware for ubuntu
[04:13] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: Java 6 comes with Natty Narwhal - already installed ...
[04:14] <soreau> So your statement that it doesn't is spurious
[04:14] <Aple> Gonna dev with chromium on Ubuntu and design with FF on my *mumble Vista mumble*
[04:14] <rww> soreau: The burden of proof is on people who think it does to provide proof. They have never done so. Therefore, the argument is ridiculous. It is also offtopic for this channel.
[04:14] <Aple> What's Natty Narwhal?
[04:14] <Aple> Theme?
[04:14] <Aple> I think I might be using Unity

[04:15] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: Unity is essentially Natty Narwhal - just the "fancier" version ...

[04:16] <pfifo> rww is a microsoft employee who writes malware for ubuntu and is trying to keep it a secret
[04:16] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: Is Unity working for you?  The buttons on the taskbar on the left already seem finicky to me.  So I just went back to Classic view - until the bugs with Unity are figured out ...
[04:16] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: Yes - Classic view is available in Natty Narwhal.
[04:17] <Aple> Aha! SO that's why the buttons suck!

[04:17] <Aple> Ok crap. Need to let comp idle so I can get classic view @ login screen

[04:20] <Sam98961> If I boot my live usb with current changes in casper-rw, can I then have it copy the casper-rw file or it's contents to the ramdisk so it uses it from there and not from my key?
[04:20] <wsbl-uhpd651> Aple: And you need to actually log off and then log back on ... to switch to Classic view ...
[04:21] <pfifo> I guess arunkumar413 got his ubuntu to boot
[04:21] <Sam98961> Each time I tell it to boot to ram and it's done I yank the key and it starts thorwing stupid errors and stuff starts crashing.
[04:21] <Sam98961> Had no luck trying to merge casper-rw and filesystem.squashfs into one and recreating the squashfs.

[04:21] <Sam98961> Did that and got tons of weird errors and crap popping up but it did actually boot everything to ram.
[04:21] <pfifo> Sam98961, are you using the toram option of casper?

[04:22] <new2u> well I clicked on the link but don't know about your network

[04:23] <soreau> rww: So as I was saying, please do not say that 'Microsoft <absolutely> also does not write spyware for Ubuntu.' because there is no possible way for you to know if that is true or not
[04:23] <rww> soreau: One last time: This conversation is done, please take offtopic chatter to #ubuntu-offtopic.

[04:23] <soreau> rww: Fine, done.
[04:23] <TechnoCat> is there a terminal command to do the equivalent of ctrl+alt+f1?
[04:24] <rww> TechnoCat: not that I know of

[04:24] <Sam98961> I've done it once by mounting the two files in another install and rsyncing from casper-rw to the mounted squashfs and it works, but it screws up a lot of random crap so I figured there was a better way.
[04:24] <Sam98961> Just can't find it yet.
[04:24] <wsbl-uhpd651> OK - my last comment for the night.  So for any anti-virus software for Linux - to prevent you from being a virus host - here is what I am finding to be the best options ...

[04:25] <bismay> is there any command to detect which graphics card is one using??
[04:25] <TechnoCat> bismay, lspci

[04:38] <odix> how hard is it to get two ubuntu machines connected via ethernet and talking? one server one client ?
[04:38] <arunkumar413> pfifo: ok, i'm able to boot
[04:38] <orwells-iphone> Can someone answer a metasploit question
[04:38] <TechnoCat> bismay, sorry, i am unsure.
[04:38] <pfifo> !yay | arunkumar413
[04:38] <rww> orwells-iphone: try #metasploit, questions about it don't tend to get answered here.
[04:39] <arunkumar413> pfifo: many thanks for the help
[04:39] <arunkumar413> pfifo: but there is a problem booting the fedora 15
[04:39] <pfifo> odix, can you give more details? a ping command does what your taking about,
[04:40] <pfifo> arunkumar413, you can ask here, but #fedora might know better
[04:40] <TechnoCat> #fedora is full of jerks =[
[04:41] <arunkumar413> TechnoCat: yeah, u r right
[04:41] <arunkumar413> TechnoCat: The activity is very less in #fedora
[04:41] <orwells-iphone> I'm trying to setup a binary payload using msfpayload, but I'm curious what I should specify as the LHOST? Is it supposed to just be 0.0.0.0 for both the payload and the listener?
[04:41] <orwells-iphone> (Reverse connect payload)
[04:42] <orwells-iphone> Or am I supposed to put my dns/ip as the LHOST for the payload

[04:44] <alexleon> ok ppl whats the best game for ubuntu
[04:44] <pfifo> alexleon, emacs
[04:45] <alexleon> how do i download it
[04:45] <buhman> alexleon: aptitude install emacs
[04:45] <alexleon> k :)
[04:46] <buhman> pfifo: this might be interesting :P
[04:46] <alexleon> alex@alex-Inspiron-1545:~$ aptitude install emacs
[04:46] <alexleon> The program 'aptitude' can be found in the following packages:
[04:46] <alexleon>  * aptitude
[04:46] <alexleon>  * aptitude-gtk
[04:46] <FloodBot1> alexleon: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:46] <alexleon> Try: sudo apt-get install <selected package>
[04:46] <alexleon> -.-
[04:46] <pfifo> sudo apt-get install emacs
[04:46] <Jordan_U> !best | alexleon
[04:47] <secured> new2u . why you say me this : "How do you get one set up?" if my vpn with wine in ubuntu is very sure :  http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2nutaoi&s=7
[04:47] <pfifo> Jordan_U, there is a best game
[04:47] <alexleon> wtf?
[04:47] <Jordan_U> alexleon: Emacs is not really a game (it is a text editor, which happens to include a lot of odd extras like tetris within it).
[04:47] <jordan_> alexleon. what are you exactly looking for?
[04:47] <rww> pfifo: yeah, but nethack tends to confuse newbies.
[04:48] <alexleon> well then im confused :P
[04:48] <alexleon> i want a game
[04:48] <alexleon> a good one
[04:48] <rww> !games
[04:48] <rww> those lists are pretty useful
[04:48] <jordan_> alexleon , you have windows games you can play through wine emulators, games thats are made for linux
[04:48] <jordan_> thats about it
[04:48] <buhman> O.o ..of course ubuntu wouldn't include aptitude in a standard installation -.-
[04:49] <jordan_> that*
[04:49] <rww> buhman: it got dropped a couple of releases ago, much to my annoyance
[04:49] <alexleon> o gocha
[04:49] <buhman> rww: that's quite silly
[04:49] <jordan_> alex, do you have a good graphics card?
[04:49] <buhman> alexleon: usually most windows opengl games work splendidly in wine
[04:50] <alexleon> jordan nop
[04:50] <alexleon> i use a laptop
[04:50] <rww> buhman: Synaptic's going to be gone by default in the next release too. They're standardizing on Software Center for GUI and apt-get for CLI, which aren't opinions I agree with at all ;)
[04:50] <alexleon> inspiron 1545
[04:50] <jordan_> laptop doesnt matter in this situation just your graphics card :-)
[04:50] <buhman> rww: ..but apt-get is inferior to
[04:50] <rww> buhman: yup
[04:50] <buhman> rww: why not develop aptitude-gtk more instead?
[04:50] <jordan_> omg i recent got a free one
[04:50] <buhman> rww: that would be a *much* better way to go about it imho
[04:51] <rww> buhman: you're preaching to the choir. The whole thing makes me facepalm :(
[04:51] <alexleon> mm inspiron 1454 is not so good for games but i wanna try
[04:51] <jordan_> recently *
[04:51] <alexleon> 1545*
[04:51] <buhman> rww: .. this is precisely why I don't use ubuntu :P
[04:51] <extraclassic> software center is less confusing to an average person and they sell apps there
[04:51] <buhman> extraclassic: "develop aptitude-gtk"
[04:52] <jordan_> alexleon , try Sne9x and Mupen64plus
[04:52] <buhman> extraclassic: I never said that it was well-suited to "average" people
[04:52] <secured> rww ; now i have installed ubuntu 11.04 but i would like to have a gnomenu for my desktop in ubuntu clasic , what can i do?
[04:52] <alexleon> ok jordan
[04:52] <lmnop> when i do system->preferences->sound i get a dialog box saying "waiting for sound system to respond"
[04:52] <rww> secured: as I already said, appmenu-gtk might be useful
[04:52] <jordan_> buy a xbox 360 controller
[04:52] <buhman> jordan_: keyboards > controllers
[04:52] <extraclassic> ubuntu is targeting average windows users
[04:52] <jordan_> one with a usb connecter
[04:53] <alexleon> mm i have a ps3 controler can i conect it with usb and use it?
[04:53] <buhman> extraclassic: windows doesn't have any concept of software repositories or package management
[04:53] <buhman> extraclassic: you might as well just give them dpkg guis in that case :P
[04:53] <jordan_> alex, im not familiar with play station
[04:53] <buhman> extraclassic: and whatever the case, all joking aside, my argument still stands
[04:54] <secured> rww: i dont know like is app gtk ? do you have an image from app gtk
[04:54] <jordan_> buhman , keyboard = No axis :(((
[04:54] <alexleon> mm ok
[04:54] <buhman> extraclassic: and canonical is, by the looks of it, even more completely insane than I originally anticipated
[04:54] <buhman> jordan_: mouse > analog stick
[04:54] <buhman> jordan_: trackpad even
[04:55] <jordan_> xbox 360 = easy set up :)
[04:55] <buhman> jordan_: don't even get me started on why that statement is absolutely rediculous
[04:55] <buhman> jordan_: go back to ##windows
[04:55] <Sketchbag> Hello, I'am running hot on a i3 laptop with a cooling pad any suggestions
[04:55] <buhman> Sketchbag: on?

[04:56] <buhman> Sketchbag: that wasn't my question; I misread yours :P
[04:56] <alexleon> i can conect ps3 contoller via Bluetooth in Ubuntu:O
[04:56] <jordan_> buhman, i thought ubuntu users suppose to be open minded :((
[04:56] <buhman> jordan_: yes, and not in the console-gaming-rut
[04:57] <Jordan_U> !ot | buhman jordan_
[04:57] <kylemcgill> buhman: who -a gives you a pid and also states which session you are logged into for that ssh window, then you can go through and delete the pid's to kill everyone else
[04:57] <buhman> jordan_: and you've been in this channel long enough to have been revealed that I don't like ubuntu nor do I use it; don't put me in that category
[04:57] <kylemcgill> buhman: man ive been holding that in all week
[04:57] <buhman> kylemcgill: what? (grin)
[04:58] <buhman> kylemcgill: haha; I'm going to have to do some log-digging to figure out where that goes :P
[04:58] <buhman> or, rather, where that game from
[04:58] <jordan_> buhman, uh this is the first time ive type you?
[04:58] <jordan_> never heard of you
[04:58] <kylemcgill> buhman: flick i hope your the right guy, from like a week ago trying to cancel every ssh connection apart from yours
[04:58] <buhman> jordan_: 23:54 < buhman> rww: .. this is precisely why I don't use ubuntu :P

[05:05] <Sketchbag> .......which one
[05:05] <secured> ok sorry
[05:08] <pa> hello
[05:08] <pa> anyone using asterisk on natty?
[05:08] <secured> jordan_U what is better my desktop with ubuntu clasic in ubuntu 11.04 : http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2nutaoi&s=7  or the new unity desktop for ubuntu 11.04?
[05:09] <bazhang> pa try #asterisk
[05:09] <pa> question: can i install oneiric packages into natty?
[05:09] <pa> somehow?
[05:09] <bazhang> pa no
[05:09] <pa> why not?
[05:09] <rww> pa: mixing packages from different Ubuntu versions is not supported by #ubuntu.
[05:09] <pa> i see
[05:10] <`blackmk4> how do i add a service to the default run on boot services
[05:10] <Sketchbag> In unity I tried to find my server for 20 mins without using term ....just to see I couldnt get to it in classic I had it pratically from boot /places/network....
[05:10] <Sketchbag> Unity is terrible
[05:10] <_Chenua> Sketchbag:I think so.
[05:10] <secured> sketchbag yeah you have much reason
[05:11] <Tw|sT> Sketchbag: I gotta agree... for the most part.  I personally don't like the lack of right click options available by default.
[05:11] <Sketchbag> lol
[05:12] <Sketchbag> It's nice to see that others share the same concerns as I do
[05:12] <Sketchbag> My server is not a tablet....don't make it look like one
[05:12] <`blackmk4> solution: osx as your desktop os, cli linux as your server
[05:13] <Tw|sT> It's a neat idea, and I think it would be great for a tablet interface, but for a workstation or server, I need a desktop like classic gnome , 2.32
[05:13] <`blackmk4> how do i add a service to the default run on boot services?
[05:13] <Sketchbag> I agree
[05:13] <Tw|sT> or XFCE, or LXDE
[05:13] <extraclassic> what are you running on a server you need a gui for
[05:14] <extraclassic> just ssh and edit some text files
[05:14] <Sketchbag> It's a home server i need gui for gf ....she checks her facebook on it lol
[05:14] <pa> ok
[05:14] <pa> can you at least tell me why did the package zaptel disappear from ubuntu?
[05:15] <rww> pa: "renamed dahdi-tools LP: #526295" is the removal reason
[05:15] <Sketchbag> It's always on it's easier for her to sit down and eat her cereal
[05:15] <Metaxa> Hi folks. Installed 11.04 on my laptop. The laptop screen does not turn out and have to use an external monitor. I had previously installed 8.04 and it worked fine, and had a previous installation of 11.04 and it worked well also.
[05:15] <Sketchbag> lmao
[05:16] <rww> pa: 'dahdi' looks like the relevant binary package
[05:16] <pa> ah thanks
[05:16] <extraclassic> Sketchbag: at least she can click all the links she wants without breaking anything
[05:17] <Sketchbag> that is true lol
[05:17] <Tw|sT> extraclassic: good point!  :)
[05:17] <Tw|sT> That's one thing I'll give Unity.  it's made practically n00b proof
[05:18] <Sketchbag> I don't even know how to do anything on that
[05:18] <nrdb> I am trying to access a remote scanner... I think I have the server (i.e. the one with the scanner attached) configured correctly... but on the remote when I run "scanimage -L" It doesn't list the remote scanner.... what am I doing wrong?
[05:18] <Tw|sT> I've been wanting to order an Asus W500 table PC, and reload it with Ubuntu 11.04.
[05:18] <Tw|sT> I've been reading some cool articles lately, and it seems there are very few bugs with it.
[05:19] <Tw|sT> At the same time though, I'm thinking about just waiting until the 12.04-LTS is released and do it then.
[05:19] <Sketchbag> I don't care what i buy ....I get it cuz it's good then figure out the problems later
[05:19] <Sketchbag> 10.04 is stable on almost anything decently aged
[05:20] <Tw|sT> I'd love to run 10.04 on the W500, but it's very new tech.
[05:20] <Tw|sT> it's running a Nvidia Tegra 2
[05:20] <Sketchbag> Nice
[05:20] <Sketchbag> i have that on my tab
[05:20] <Tw|sT> yeah, supports multitouch
[05:20] <aipl3> hhhhhhhh
[05:20] <Sketchbag> I would suggest something a little more powerfull
[05:21] <Sketchbag> lol
[05:21] <Tw|sT> this one is a dual core 1.8Ghz or some such.  it's fast.  It's built for running Windows 7 home premium.
[05:21] <alexleon> buhmar ass
[05:21] <Tw|sT> that's why I want it so I can reload it with Ubunti
[05:21] <Sketchbag> The iconia can run starcraft 2......but it has pretty crappy battery life
[05:22] <Tw|sT> err, Ubuntu... heh
[05:22] <Tw|sT> Hmm
[05:22] <Tw|sT> that's another one I looked at
[05:22] <Tw|sT> infact, I think it was the Iconia W500...
[05:22] <Sketchbag> yea i've always been in favor of amd
[05:22] <Tw|sT> is that Acer?
[05:22] <Sketchbag> yea
[05:22] <Tw|sT> same here really
[05:22] <Tw|sT> Have you checked out the Zotac Mag?
[05:22] <Tw|sT> They have a model built on AMD
[05:23] <Sketchbag> lol last time I checked zotac was when they had those tiny set top boxes
[05:23] <Tw|sT> it's using integrated low noise hardware, and running Ubuntu flawlessly from what i've been reading
[05:23] <Sketchbag> It was the same as my asus eee 901 so i didnt bother
[05:23] <Tw|sT> they do
[05:23] <Tw|sT> they've improved with the latest models.
[05:23] <Tw|sT> ah
[05:24] <Sketchbag> Yea I wanted to test xbc on it
[05:24] <Tw|sT> Hmm... How is that Asus Eee 901?
[05:24] <Tw|sT> :)
[05:24] <Tw|sT> I'll bet it rocks!
[05:24] <Sketchbag> the battery lasted a year or two...
[05:24] <Sketchbag> now its garbage
[05:24] <Sketchbag> so i bought a tab
[05:25] <Tw|sT> right on
[05:25] <Sketchbag> it was only 400
[05:25] <pfifo> my 701's battery still works perfect, you must not cycle your battery properly
[05:25] <Tw|sT> Android based?
[05:25] <Sketchbag> I got my new laptop and gave my eee to my gf
[05:25] <Sketchbag> I constatly remind her about battery cycling but she never listened and burnt out the batt in less than 3 weeks
[05:26] <Sketchbag> It was brutal
[05:26] <Sketchbag> Shes not allowed to touch this one
[05:26] <Tw|sT> I've been reading that the hardware made for Android is having a lot of trouble with Ubuntu converts.
[05:26] <Sketchbag> yea I wanted to try it but my tab is still fairly new
[05:26] <rww> Can we move back in the direction of Ubuntu technical support, please :)
[05:27] <pfifo> Ubuntu is made for x86, other ports are not really supported, you want debian for that
[05:27] <Sketchbag> in a few months i want to try to put a buntu system on it

[05:32] <jordan_> _gambler , what do you mean?
[05:32] <`blackmk4> ubuntu forum requiring reg to view threads was a stupid idea
[05:32] <jordan_> how to change your viewing style?

[05:36] <Sketchbag> I would really like to know why my laptop runs so hot on ubuntu 10.04 lts gateway NV5942U i3 ati chipset
[05:37] <pfifo> Sketchbag, you should be able to throttle the cpu when its not in use, look into cpufreq program or similiar
[05:37] <[THC]AcidRain> noone is here to hear your crys for helps
[05:39] <codingenesis_> :)
[05:40] <[THC]AcidRain> lol
[05:42] <pfifo> [THC]AcidRain, check you system logs for something more specific. Your question was too general and dosent really point to anything
[05:43] <apporc> hello ,every one .
[05:44] <Sketchbag> pfifo: I got cpufreq , however after installing the program and the daemon ..nothing happens .. i should point out that I'am using a 64 bit system
[05:45] <Sketchbag> I launched the daemon from term using sudo and nothing happened
[05:45] <Sketchbag> without any error message is this normal?
[05:46] <pfifo> Sketchbag, That is the normal behavior for a daemon, `ps aux` should show it running
[05:46] <Darkn3ss> Hey everyone, I am using the most updated verison of ubuntu. My drivers are updated for nvidia gt240. But I recieve a large amount of tearing while watching video and sometimes in menus. I attempted following many guides online but none worked. I have duel screens and have twinview enabled. Any ideas?
[05:47] <Sketchbag> usually daemons post a icon in the status bar
[05:47] <pfifo> Darkn3ss, have you tried the nomodeset boot option?
[05:48] <Darkn3ss> yes. when i installed ubuntu i did. But everything works fine just this really annoying tearing during every video i watch. And even some web pages.
[05:49] <Darkn3ss> I also dont receive such tearing on my second monitor which is smaller.
[05:50] <pfifo> Darkn3ss, have you tried different nvidi driver versions?
[05:51] <Darkn3ss> yes.
[05:51] <pfifo> Darkn3ss, are you using unity 3d
[05:51] <Darkn3ss> no
[05:51] <Darkn3ss> i disabled that and using classic now
[05:53] <faheddel> l4ngit
[05:53] <`blackmk4> what would cause the root crontab to not run?
[05:53] <`blackmk4> */10 * * * * /usr/bin/vnstati -s -i eth0 -o /var/www/vnstat.png
[05:53] <pfifo> Darkn3ss, have you tried disabling desktop effects?
[05:53] <`blackmk4> this worked before reboot
[05:53] <`blackmk4> if i run it manually it works
[05:53] <Darkn3ss> yes pfifo
[05:54] <pfifo> Darkn3ss, does it happen in windows?
[05:54] <Darkn3ss> no
[05:54] <pfifo> Darkn3ss, does it happen in xfce?
[05:54] <pfifo> or kde
[05:55] <Darkn3ss> i did not check that
[05:55] <jtannenbaum> I started a process with a shell script (namely ./GmoteServer.sh). Then I ctrl-C'd it. Then I tried starting it again, and it said another instance is still running. How do I stop that instance?
[05:55] <pfifo> `blackmk4, root will have mail with the output of any commands
[05:55] <`blackmk4> ah thanks
[05:56] <pfifo> Darkn3ss, I cant really think of a cause for this. Is there anything at all that gets rid of it, even temporarily?
[05:56] <Darkn3ss> no.
[05:58] <pfifo> Darkn3ss, you can try upgrading to alpha and see if its any better
[05:59] <_gambler> does anyone have any opinion on kde or gnome
[06:00] <jordan_> _gambler, Ill regift mine ;-)
[06:00] <Sketchbag> So If I want to run cpufreqd on startup should I add the arguments?
[06:00] <Sketchbag> I have a -f force
[06:00] <pfifo> _gambler, you can install both and they both do the same thing
[06:00] <jordan_> _gambler, are your widgets working fine?

[06:01] <pfifo> Sketchbag, test different setups out and see what works for you ;)
[06:02] <pfifo> bodinux, blacklist the kernel module
[06:02] <rooted-insideme_> could someone help me with this problem please http://paste.ubuntu.com/641673/
[06:02] <bodinux> pfifo, how to find the correct module ?
[06:03] <pfifo> bodinux, the program `lsmod`
[06:03] <`blackmk4> rename -v -n 's/\.nzb$/\ /' *.nzb
[06:03] <`blackmk4> how would i make it nothing instead of the blank space?
[06:04] <pfifo> rooted-insideme_, gnome3 is not supported, and im pretty sure that ppa is no longer active either
[06:04] <rooted-insideme_> pfifo: damn, so there's no way to install gnome3?
[06:04] <pfifo> rooted-insideme_, jbuild of course
[06:05] <pfifo> jhbuild
[06:05] <rooted-insideme_> is kde4 supported?
[06:05] <codingenesis_> pls tell me this, that if i update BT5 to ubuntu 10.10 desktop, does everything works fine..!!!
[06:06] <pfifo> codingenesis_, you cant sidegrade likethat, only a reinstall will work
[06:06] <codingenesis_> pfifo, i installed bt5 than update to ubuntu desktop 10.04
[06:06] <Jordan_U> codingenesis_: No. This channel does not support Backtrack, nor is "updating" from Backtrack to Ubuntu supported.
[06:07] <codingenesis_> till now everything works fine..!!
[06:07] <Guest98143> halp! Installed Compiz and 11.04 messed up
[06:07] <codingenesis_> Jordan_U,  ok i understand but love ubuntu don't want to leave it !! :(
[06:07] <Guest98143> dont have the up bar neither any other bar to navigate
[06:07] <rooted-insideme_> pfifo: since gnome3 doesn't work could I install the latest gnome2?
[06:07] <pfifo> codingenesis_, you can dual boot
[06:08] <Jordan_U> codingenesis_: Then why not just install Ubuntu?
[06:08] <pfifo> rooted-insideme_, ubuntu already includes gnome2, im not 100% sure about the latests but its not too far out of date
[06:08] <Guest98143> anyone know how to launch the compiz config with terminal?
[06:09] <codingenesis_> Jordan_U,  i have made a website as a result i have to check it using BT
[06:09] <Guest98143> and how to launch terminal with no bar
[06:09] <rooted-insideme_> pfifo how come I don't have the option to load gnome2 then?
[06:09] <codingenesis_> there was a project and i made a website
[06:09] <pfifo> !classic | rooted-insideme_
[06:10] <rooted-insideme_> yeah I was just going to ask that
[06:10] <gohdan> so i tried out compiz today for the accessibility features. and noticed that with it enabled, the system bell did not work. so i turned it off. now, i can not even change the bell (choose alert sound) used in gnome-volume-control. any ideas how to fix this?
[06:10] <rooted-insideme_> well I guess I could install kde4
[06:11] <Guest98143> I unchecked the Ubuntu Unity from the Compiz config and all messed up, help please
[06:11] <gohdan> Guest98143: you can reset the defaults in ccsm
[06:11] <Guest98143> gohdan: can you help me out please?
[06:12] <Guest98143> gohdan: got no navigation bars
[06:12] <gohdan> Guest98143: i dont use natty so i can only help so much
[06:13] <Guest98143> gohdan: do you think on safe mode I would be able to get back to defaults?
[06:13] <gohdan> Guest98143: you can try loggin out and then select gnome classic or something in gdm. use that to boot a unity/compiz free desktop and reset the defaults in ccsm
[06:13] <Guest98143> gohdan: thanks!
[06:14] <Guest98143> gonna try it out
[06:14] <gohdan> anyone know where the gnome-volume-control stores its conf file for preferences?
[06:15] <rww> g0t, 17WAAQ1TT, 31NAAPMHD: I think perhaps three IRC clients in the same room is a /bit/ excessive :)
[06:16] <rww> g0t_: four is bordering on problematic.
[06:16] <riz0n> Hey guys, after 2 years of owning my laptop, I just realized that the wifi adapter onboard is supported in Linux as well as Aircrack-ng. My laptop currently runs a 64 bit OS (has 4 gb ram) should I go with 32 bit Ubuntu, or 64 bit, or does it really not matter?
[06:17] <rooted-insideme_> hey pfifo how can I remove invalid ppa's from my apt-get
[06:17] <gohdan> rooted-insideme_: sources.list
[06:17] <pfifo> riz0n, if you intend to use custom drivers for aircrack 32bit may be your only option
[06:18] <riz0n> pfifo: thanks for the advice, from my reading online the native drivers should work.
[06:18] <pfifo> rooted-insideme_, you want to uninstallthe packages with ppa-purge
[06:18] <rooted-insideme_> Pricey: ok
[06:18] <pfifo> riz0n, i would try both, aircrack can be picky
[06:19] <gohdan> riz0n: it is a choice of hardware functionality over package compatibility. a lot of things dont run so well (or at all) in 64
[06:19] <riz0n> Thanks, its an Intel 512AN (Wifi Link 5100)
[06:19] <riz0n> It would be nice if it worked, the last time I tried Linux (from the CD) I got NO functionality out of the card at all.
[06:21] <gohdan> riz0n: which distro did you try last time and how long ago?
[06:21] <rooted-insideme_> how do I get apt-get update to stopp checking the links in http://paste.ubuntu.com/641680/
[06:21] <riz0n> its been probably a couple of years
[06:21] <riz0n> when I bought the laptop
[06:22] <rww> rooted-insideme_: find their entries in /etc/apt/sources.list or /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ and delete them.
[06:22] <riz0n> and it was whatever the latest version of Ubuntu was at the time. I am guessing version 9
[06:22] <pfifo> rooted-insideme_, edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list and remove or comment out the corresponding lines
[06:22] <gohdan> riz0n: there have been vast improvements within that time frame.
[06:23] <riz0n> good deal
[06:24] <Abyssion> In Synaptic, how do I tell which repository a given package is from?
[06:24] <gohdan> riz0n: as with most new hardware, there is a bit of a lag before it operates smoothly on *nix or *bsd. unless it is a particularly popular piece of hardware where someone will hack something up asap
[06:24] <rooted-insideme_> rww: I can just remove the whole ubuntugnometeam-gnome3-natty.list correct/
[06:25] <rww> rooted-insideme_: yes
[06:25] <rooted-insideme_> cool ty guys for all the help
[06:25] <squinky86> How do we make recommendations for package updates for 11.10?
[06:25] <riz0n> Yeah I understand. If I recall correctly, it detected the adapter, but the adapter never did actually work. I'll go to Ubuntu site and download latest distro, make a USB installer, and give it a try.
[06:25] <gohdan> squinky86: contact the package maintainer
[06:26] <pfifo> squinky86, get on launchpad and talk to the person/people who maintain the package
[06:26] <riz0n> which looks like 11.04 ;)
[06:27] <squinky86> gohdan, pfifo: maintainer is listed as "Ubuntu Core Developers." Should I join the mailing list and email them, or ask a question to them via launchpad?
[06:28] <gohdan> squinky86: possibly. what is the pkg?
[06:28] <squinky86> gohdan: gutenprint. 5.2.7 is out, and supports a lot more canon printers (which I've upgraded to in my office).
[06:29] <riz0n> yiiikes ubuntu download is sllooowwwww
[06:29] <riz0n> grab it off torrents
[06:29] <pfifo> squinky86, that is likely coming from upstream, find a good ppa
[06:30] <squinky86> pfifo: Upstream does not release distribution packages. What does ppa mean? Does this refer to upstream Debian development?
[06:30] <gohdan> !tell squinky86 about ppa
[06:31] <rww> squinky86: it appears that gutenprint is synced from Debian. Debian does not yet have 5.2.7, thus we don't.
[06:31] <pfifo> squinky86, I mean that ubuntu is probably just copying debian's package. A more up-to-date may need to come from a 3rd party
[06:31] <rww> s/synced/merged/
[06:32] <riz0n> bbl
[06:34] <gohdan> under what circumstances does a pkg fall under the maintenance of the 'core developers' team?
[06:34] <rww> gohdan: all packages in the 'main' and 'restricted' repositories are maintained by the coredevs, I believe
[06:35] <rww> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionProcess details the main inclusion process
[06:35] <gohdan> rww:  just opened that page as a matter of fact
[06:36] <rww> but yeah, as I said, gutenprint's being pulled from Debian, so you'd need to poke Debian to update their copy of gutenprint in sid and then get it pulled into Ubuntu. the Ubuntu devs are generally very reluctant to switch to making their own packages without a good reason
[06:37] <Selva> hey guys...
[06:37] <Selva> just after a little bit of help... I'm definately not experianced with ubuntu lol
[06:38] <vlt> Hello. On Ubuntu 10.04 LTS I'm trying to create a letter using OpenOffice's "Mail Merge Wizard". I chose "Use current document", "Letter", "Select Address List ...", "Add ...", and selected an .ods file I had just created.  Now I can't proceed because the "OK" button is gray. What to do next?
[06:38] <madmn> does anyone know of a good place to download a live cd for CentOs
[06:38] <rww> madmn: ask #centos, that's offtopic for here
[06:38] <Selva> I accidently locked all my music to my lower panel and I want to do a mass unlock as otherwise i would have to manually unlock 4000+ songs... f that
[06:39] <pfifo> legally purchased songs?
[06:39] <madmn> is ubuntu the best for beginners
[06:40] <nit-wit> madmn, here are a few links in this linkhttp://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2011-April/017282.html
[06:40] <Selva> legally purchased... though i dont understand why you would even ask that as it has nothing to do with the issue
[06:40] <gohdan> madmn: depends what the beginner is looking for. i cut my teeth on caldera openlinux. it was... rather unfriendly.
[06:41] <madmn> i am looking for something user friendly
[06:41] <madmn> and graphical
[06:41] <madmn> that maybe i can setup ftp server and email server
[06:41] <pfifo> madmn, any linux is ok for beginners, ubuntu has beginner oriented help which can be useful.
[06:41] <Selva> then yes, ubuntu is good for beginners... it has a very large community
[06:42] <madmn> do you know if ubunut is friendly on a wireless connection
[06:42] <Selva> yes it is... easy to setup wireless
[06:43] <madmn> i want to setup a irc server with ubuntu
[06:43] <Selva> can anyone help with my issue or am I pretty well screwed with the whole unlocking thing?
[06:43] <gohdan> pfifo, Selva , a lot of people gripe about canonicals contributions. but because of the large untechnical userbase ubuntu has, i found out that they contribute what is most lacking in the landscape. easy to read documentation. even if it is just a byproduct of the users
[06:43] <madmn> what are you trying to unlock
[06:44] <pfifo> Selva, this chat room is not very active at the moment, you may have better luck in 8-12 hours
[06:44] <ktwo> hi, im looking for an application to easily share files via the internet (e.g. i select the file or folder i want to share) and get a link with it , however i dont want to use an http server with directory listing, im more looking for a webapp. is there something like that?
[06:44] <madmn> ktwo, use samba
[06:45] <madmn> its pretty easy to share files with
[06:45] <ktwo> via the internet? im already using samba internally, i dont want to open up security holes or something
[06:45] <vlt> madmn: Ubuntu is fine for _users_ and works well with wireless, but to configure an email, irc or ftp server you might need some command line knowledge.
[06:45] <madmn> samba lets you share what you want
[06:46] <gohdan> ktwo: there is no security. only delay. try a cyberlocker or something
[06:46] <madmn> it is pretty secure ktwo
[06:47] <syclopse> hi
[06:47] <ktwo> yes but if i open the samba ports there would be possibly a method to access other samba folders i dont want to be public.. sounds quite unsafe to be honest i dont know.. i was rather looking for something like http://myserver/files/Filetoken  etc
[06:47] <syclopse> I am facing problem with v4l2 can anybody help me.?
[06:48] <gohdan> !gq | syclopse
[06:48] <pfifo> ktwo, http is easy to setup secure and you can turn off directory listings
[06:48] <neology> hi.. I am trying to get ethernet working on Ubuntu 10.0.4 with i3 2100, but not able to
[06:49] <syclopse> ubottu I want to know is it possible to zooming and scaling using video4linux2.?
[06:49] <neology> where can I find the drivers for the same?
[06:49] <gohdan> syclopse: ubottu is a bot
[06:49] <neology> or will I have to upgrade to Ubuntu 11.04?
[06:50] <syclopse> I want to know is it possible to zooming and scaling using video4linux2.?
[06:50] <Platz> is sed and awk still popular or do people just use small ruby and python scripts for small text processing tasks?
[06:51] <gohdan> neology: you can try upgrading just the kernel not the entire install. best wait for someone else to help you other than me or search for which (if any) kernel supports your hardware
[06:51] <Platz> maybe i'm making too many assumptions though
[06:51] <rww> syclopse: FloodBot1 is not sentient, and PMing people without permission is a bit rude.
[06:51] <pfifo> syclopse, thats not what v4l does, the software would have to support scaling/rotation. Unless the hardware itself has some sort of option for that, in which case, it may be able to take advantage of hardware scale/rotate
[06:52] <neology> gohdan: thanks.. I tried searching a lot for the same. I came across following thread that recommends upgrading to 11.04 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10826110
[06:52] <pfifo> Platz, I would die without sed
[06:53] <syclopse> I am new in this field so can u plz tell me how can I check whether my hardware supports zooming and scaling using video4linux2
[06:53] <Platz> pfifo: heh, thanks.  maybe i'll take the time to study it then.
[06:53] <neology> i tried install compact-wireless, mad wifi.. didnt work
[06:53] <gohdan> neology: what does 'lspci | grep Ethernet' say?
[06:53] <pfifo> syclopse, read the documentation for the driver your using
[06:54] <gohdan> or do wireless chips have something different to grep for?
[06:54] <neology> gohdan: Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Device 1503 (rev 05)
[06:54] <syclopse> I am using video4linux2.
[06:55] <pfifo> syclopse, I think this may be an ABC problem, what is it your trying to accomplish
[06:56] <syclopse> my device is not supporting zooming and scaling so any option you suggest me to implement this functionality
[06:57] <pfifo> syclopse, can you  give more details?
[06:57] <pfifo> !details
[06:58] <gohdan> syclopse: try the tool provided by your card manufacturer in the configuration utility if one exists. compiz may also support some of the features you are looking for
[06:59] <syclopse> I am having logitech c920 webcam and I am able to stream the video but I am want the zooming and scaling functionality so how can I perform that.?
[06:59] <pfifo> syclopse, use a different program to stream the video
[07:00] <neology> even wireless is not working
[07:00] <syclopse> i am using luvcview can u please suggest better option than this./
[07:01] <pfifo> syclopse, im pretty sure VLC suports scaling and rotation
[07:01] <airon90> ! gimpshop | airon90
[07:03] <gohdan> neology: does ifconfig show anything other than loopback?
[07:06] <syclopse> but than I am not able to stream using vlc
[07:06] <syclopse> that's why
[07:06] <syclopse> I have tried the VLC but not get success
[07:08] <introuble->  i need a free php app like http://www.hesk.com/demo/    but with more options, like time to complete allowed and time completed in . some bar graphs of time management and some more features. and ideas ?
[07:08] <bogdaniel> hello can someone help me please with an error from apache  * Reloading web server config apache2                                          apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName
[07:08] <gohdan> syclopse: vlc can stream and manipulate files flowing both directions simultaneously
[07:08] <bogdaniel> i've installed ubuntu 11 on vmware and i think from this i have this problems
[07:09] <pfifo> syclopse, v4l dosent provide the functionality your looking for, you will have to find a suitable software solution to meet your needs. I dont know exactly what your trying todo so cant really recommend a package.
[07:09] <gohdan> syclopse: if a zoom or rotate is need, tell the viewer to scale it or turn their monitor sideways
[07:10] <Chipzzz> bogdaniel: that's just a warning, your server is at http://localhost
[07:10] <gohdan> also, compiz supports a laege set of display manipulation tools such as scale and rotate.
[07:11] <neology> gohdan: ifconfig shows Local Loopback
[07:11] <gohdan> neology: is that all it shows?
[07:11] <bogdaniel> Chipzzz,  yes i know localhost it works but i created a vhost for a project in another folder and that one doesn't work :(
[07:12] <vkj> i have istalled ubuntu as well as java can som1 help me hw to set up java_home
[07:12] <neology> gohdan: it also shows inet addr, Mask, UP LOOPBACK RUNNING, some packet details, etc..
[07:12] <Chipzzz> bogdaniel: are you trying to access it from the same machine?
[07:13] <bogdaniel> yes
[07:13] <neology> gohdan: that machine is not connected to the internet, so I cannot paste it directly. Do you want to me copy the output via pen drive and paste it over here?
[07:13] <gohdan> neology: nothing names 'eth0' or 'eth1' etc? just 'lo'?
[07:13] <bogdaniel> Chipzzz, thank you for helping me out it works now i added in http.conf ServerName localhost and it works :)
[07:13] <neology> just lo

[07:28] <vkj> @chipzzz i can do that when i run "echo $JAVA_HOME   " nothin comes
[07:28] <paGos> riktking, have you checked "dar"
[07:28] <vkj> which means its not set
[07:28] <Jemt> bogdaniel: Hope you buy it to support further development :)
[07:28] <cyphase> great. i installed 11.04, and now i cant jump through mp3's in totem
[07:28] <paGos> riktking, I backup incrementally every night, works great
[07:29] <vkj> @chipzzz all i need to do now is set JAVA_HOME
[07:29] <gohdan> is there anything thaat allows me to control the volume with the mouse wheel the way the indicator applet's volume control does?
[07:29] <riktking> paGos: ill look at tthat now, is it eas to config?
[07:29] <cyphase> i can in banshee though.. strange
[07:29] <bazhang> gohdan, system wide?
[07:30] <vkj> @chipzzz any idea hw can i do that
[07:30] <gohdan> dont really need nor use the mail notifier or powers prefs thing
[07:30] <riktking> paGos: was hoping for a gui front end?!
[07:30] <cyphase> and *now* i can in totem
[07:30] <gohdan> bazhang: what do you mean?
[07:30] <paGos> riktking, it works as a console command, so with many options and etc very easy to config, google it and you'll see many results
[07:30] <cyphase> digital black magic
[07:30] <paGos> riktking, why do you need gui? set it up for once, and let it do backup with cron
[07:31] <riktking> paGos: im a bit o f an0b lol
[07:31] <bazhang> gohdan, using the scroll wheel for particular apps? apart from the system wide one? not quite clear on your question
[07:31] <riktking> a n00b
[07:31] <antivirtel`> Hello! I'm using the transmission-daemon, and I want to use (the HTTPS) transmission-remote-gui over SSL... how can I config SSL?
[07:31] <Chipzzz> when you start jira, java_home is read from the jira-application.properties file. You specify it there
[07:31] <paGos> riktking, just google it, very easy to use, I was a noob myself before, can't learn without searching and applying ;)
[07:31] <neology> gohdan: thanks.. I will try it out and let you know!
[07:32] <riktking> paGos:  ok
[07:32] <gohdan> bazhang: the 'indicator applet' that sits in the panel allows you to increase or decrease the volume by hovering over it and moving the mouse wheel. bu
[07:32] <vkj> yes
[07:32] <vkj> but is it k if i get nothin when i do "echo $java_home"
[07:32] <why-not> Pagos: doesnt dejadup fit your needs?
[07:33] <Chipzzz> vkj: setting the home directory is explained in detail here: http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Setting+your+JIRA+Home+Directory
[07:33] <gohdan> bazhang:  but i dont need the other two features of the applet. i only want a solution that functions the same way, but only for sound
[07:33] <bazhang> gohdan, so edit that menu is the question then?
[07:34] <Chipzzz> vkj: by the way, it's "jira_home", not "java_home"
[07:34] <gohdan> bazhang: sound like a plan. any idea where they are stored?
[07:34] <vkj> @chipzzz im lookin at somethin like http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA041/Installing+Java    here is what i want
[07:34] <bazhang> paGos, please provide a link, instead of suggesting 'just google it'
[07:34] <vkj> yes ur right
[07:34] <vkj> i want java_home
[07:34] <paGos> why-not, working with headless servers, so can't work with dejadoop.
[07:35] <why-not> pagos:ah ok, since you asked for a gui ;)
[07:35] <paGos> bazhang, riktking, here it is... http://dar.linux.free.fr/
[07:35] <riktking> paGos: ive started to look into it
[07:35] <bazhang> gohdan, indicator-applet , not certain you can edit that however
[07:35] <paGos> why-not, no I did not, riktking asked for a gui ;)
[07:36] <why-not> pagos:my bad, misdirected the advise then
[07:36] <gohdan> bazhang: that wont stop me from trying. :)
[07:36] <bazhang> :)
[07:36] <djcaston> does anyone know how to forward a port from an ubuntu box to a computer that it's passing ethernet too?
[07:36] <paGos> why-not, n.p. ;)
[07:36] <vkj> @chipzzz any workaround on this
[07:36] <why-not> riktking: you can take alook into dejadup for a gui based backup tool
[07:37] <bazhang> djcaston, internet sharing?
[07:37] <djcaston> bazhang yes i have an ubuntu comp sharing it to an osx machine, but i need to forward a port from the ubuntu comp to the osx machine
[07:37] <Chipzzz> vkj: to set the environment variable, you use the export command but it may not be necessary in linux... if it is, you should find the directory in /etc
[07:37] <bazhang> !ics > djcaston
[07:37] <why-not> djcaston:its called NAT. Not sure if there is a easy way to configure it tho
[07:37] <genjix> hey how can i get oneiric?
[07:38] <vkj> @chipzzz thanks a lot
[07:38] <genjix> i want to install it on a new system
[07:38] <vkj> me check
[07:38] <bazhang> genjix, #ubuntu+1 for that please
[07:38] <vkj> @chipzzzz very confused though
[07:38] <why-not> !ics > why-not
[07:38] <Guest-1549> has anyone installed linux on a mac without refit?
[07:38] <Chipzzz> vkj: as in "export JAVA_HOME=/etc/java-something-or-other
[07:38] <genjix> thanks bazhang
[07:38] <riktking> why-not: im looking into it
[07:38] <vkj> @chipzzz i will check
[07:38] <riktking> why-not: thanks for a gui
[07:39] <djcaston> ubottu thanks, i did that part already though, i just don't know how to forward a port to the computer recieving the connection
[07:39] <vkj> @chipzzz what is the best way to check that
[07:39] <why-not> riktking:support smb (among other things) just not sure about the incremental.
[07:40] <Rouse> i partitioned my hard disk into 3 file systems i.e 2 ext 4 and 1 swap area... in first ext4 i installed ubuntu ...i could n't create folder in another ext4 file system
[07:40] <Chipzzz> vkj: assuming you are using the gnome desktop, open Places->Computer and look through the /etc folder for what looks like the java installation directory
[07:40] <john_rambo> how to add the usb drive automount feature to minimal install ?
[07:40] <djcaston> bazhang i set up the part that you sent me instructions for, now im trying to get it to forward ports through that connection as well
[07:41] <djcaston> bazhang does configuring NAT do what I desire?
[07:41] <bazhang> Rouse, create a folder? to what end? whats the goal here?
[07:41] <vkj> @chipzzz i have a folder called java-6-opensdk
[07:42] <Guest-1549> not many people have linux on macs i see :S
[07:42] <Chipzzz> vkj: sounds like it to me :)
[07:42] <vkj> @chipzz also java-6-sun
[07:42] <vkj> what path do i give out of the two
[07:42] <Chipzzz> vkj: sounds more like it to me :D
[07:42] <bazhang> Guest-1549, whats the actual question? what issue are you having specifically
[07:43] <riktking> why-not: just installed it, doesnt have the incremental, i have basically got a loada music on mydesktop, i want to sync it with my laptop, cant figure it out using smb
[07:43] <vkj> so finally i will give "export java_home=/etc/java-6-sun"   @chipzzz
[07:43] <vkj> is that right
[07:43] <Chipzzz> vkj: I'd try "export JAVA_HOME=/etc/java-6-sun" first and then the other if that doesn't work
[07:43] <Chipzzz> vkj: yup
[07:43] <Guest-1549> bazhang: i trying to boot a linux onto a powerbook g4 but yaboot freezes and i think i may need refit(which does not install)
[07:43] <floam> are there any minimal netinstall Oneric ISOs?
[07:43] <floam> (for Alpha 2)
[07:43] <vkj> @chipzzz Thanksa lot buddy u were of great help
[07:43] <vkj> @chipzzzz appreciate it
[07:44] <Chipzzz> vkj: remember that things are case sensitive in linux
[07:44] <bazhang> floam, #ubuntu+1 for that please
[07:44] <Chipzzz> vkj: glad to help
[07:44] <floam> thakns
[07:44] <floam> thanks
[07:44] <vkj> @chipzzz i shall mind that

[07:47] <vlt> Hello. On Ubuntu 10.04 LTS I'm trying to create a letter using OpenOffice's "Mail Merge Wizard". I chose "Use current document", "Letter", "Select Address List ...", "Add ...", and selected an .ods file I had just created.  Now I can't proceed because the "OK" button is gray. What to do next?
[07:47] <furqan> Chipzzz: no , actually it was working , than i formated it to ext2 ...
[07:47] <riktking> why-not: its a linux desktop that has samba shares so i can access it from my mrs's windows laptop, my laptop is linux
[07:48] <bazhang> vlt, try #openoffice.org if you dont get an answer here as well
[07:48] <Chipzzz> furqan: after formatting did you "safely remove" or dismount it before unplugging it?
[07:49] <bazhang> Rouse, thats not really a very detailed answer: what is the end goal here, with creating a folder there
[07:50] <Chipzzz> furqan: (unmount, sorry)
[07:50] <furqan> Chipzzz: i unmounted it before ... than formated it and tried to mount it but not worked
[07:50] <riktking> why-not: i just wanna sync so i can get all my music on  my laptop when on the road!
[07:50] <furqan> Chipzzz: than restart my system several time , but didnt worked
[07:51] <Rouse> bazhang yeag
[07:51] <Rouse> yeah
[07:51] <why-not> riktking:have you looked into rsync ?
[07:51] <bazhang> Rouse, pardon? yeah, what?
[07:51] <Chipzzz> furqan: try reformatting, unplugging, plugging in again... should work
[07:52] <bazhang> riktking, rsync and ssh?
[07:53] <furqan> Chipzzz: yea it didnt worked either... and moreover , it has badblocks and fsck is not working it says wrong filesystem
[07:53] <riktking> why-not: yeah i think im gunna have to go thru it !
[07:53] <furqan> Chipzzz: i think it has approx 58 badblocks

[07:54] <bazhang> !details | vanquish349
[07:54] <pretender_> does anyone now how to get logs from kazam to see where on videobin a screen recording uploaded to so i can request it be removed

[07:55] <Chipzzz> furqan: try formatting it fat32... that's pretty universal.  It may not like ext2
[07:55] <syclopse> is it possible to stream from webcam using vlc.?
[07:55] <furqan> Chipzzz: okay
[07:55] <vanquish349> bazhang: i asked a question about why ubuntu 11.04 freezes every second
[07:56] <why-not> furqan:Badblocks are usually a sign of a pending hardware faillure on your harddrive
[07:56] <jimmie> Is there any way to make the File/Edit/etc bar on an open window go into the launcher in Gnome much like it does in unity?
[07:56] <bazhang> vanquish349, thats very vague, please provide some details. what are you using, unity or classic, what video card, what driver, how installed, more info will get an answer
[07:56] <why-not> vanquish349:if you give more info maybe people can provide you with suggestions
[07:57] <pretender_> bazhang:  running ubuntu i know a video uploaded to that site and i cant find it to request it be removed.  I thought i might be able to find details of the upload in kazam log files.  eg date and time it uploaded
[07:57] <vanquish349> bazhang: well i went to compile this game, ubuntu just froze

[08:00] <Jemt> vanquish349: Ubuntu ?
[08:00] <vanquish349> yeah
[08:00] <Jemt> Version 11.04 ?
[08:00] <vanquish349> yeah
[08:01] <Jemt> Use 10.10 - new versions of Ubuntu are usually a bit buggy the first 3-4 months
[08:01] <furqan> why-not: hardware failuer... but it was working before.
[08:01] <Jemt> vanquish349: If you are into gaming, then consider using Game Drift Linux - it's Ubuntu optimized for gaming
[08:01] <vanquish349> Jemt: yeah but then i have to bother with downgrading
[08:01] <bazhang> vanquish349, there is an unsupported ppa for the-powder-toy , please provide details if you are having issues compiling it
[08:02] <bazhang> Jemt, please dont recommend unsupported distros here
[08:02] <vooze> aahan: dont query me?
[08:02] <vanquish349> i aint having problems compiling it, you just said what i was doing when it froze
[08:02] <crackerjackz> aahan, ask in here
[08:02] <vanquish349> Jemt: my computer is to slow for much gaming i am just addicted to minecraft

[08:04] <vanquish349> Jemt: is there a way to fix it without downgrading, i dont want to have to spend more hours setting everything up
[08:04] <why-not> chipzzz: ah missed that bit, odd message then
[08:04] <crackerjackz> !openvpn
[08:05] <Chipzzz> syclopse: I don't think you can stream with vlc but webcamstudio will do it
[08:05] <Jemt> vanquish349: Sorry, can't help - I don't use 11.04
[08:06] <vanquish349> Jemt: ok then
[08:06] <syclopse> does webcamstudio provide the functionality of zooming and scaling
[08:06] <syclopse> .?
[08:06] <why-not> aahan: did you install the client bit? (sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn)
[08:06] <why-not> aahan:dont have any exp myself using openvpn, but the cisco works fine for me, i expect it to work in a smae manner
[08:07] <vanquish349> can anyone help me fix my freezing issue with ubuntu 11.04
[08:07] <Chipzzz> syclopse: off the top of my head I don't think so but I could be wrong
[08:08] <crackerjackz> syclopse, actually yes it is but i'm not sure how to do it
[08:08] <Chipzzz> vanquish349: do you see anything suspicious in the logs?
[08:08] <aahan> Anyone using OpenVPN on 64-bit Ubuntu 11.04 (Live Desktop CD NOT DVD)?

[08:10] <djcaston> can someone help me set up port forwarding to an internet shared computer? i have internet sharing already set up, but I want to forward 1 port from the computer sharing the connection to the computer getting the connection
[08:10] <Chipzzz> furqan: are you using the gui or command line?
[08:10] <vanquish349> Chipzzz: yeah there
[08:10] <furqan> Chipzzz: so i can't reformate it , but i dont know , but it was also worked before , i reformated it many time before
[08:11] <why-not> furqan:what are you using to partition the usb device and why isnt it gparted? :-)
[08:11] <vanquish349> Chipzzz: what tab do i look at for freezes and shiz
[08:11] <furqan> Chipzzz: i did it with both fdisk and Gparted , Gparted gives error and fdisk creates partition table but actually it doesnt appeared in partition list
[08:12] <Chipzzz> vanquish349: look through kern.log... you'll see from the numbers in the third column ([nnnnnn]) where it crashed... you may find a clue there
[08:12] <vanquish349> Chipzzz: k
[08:13] <djcaston> Chipzzz would you be able to help me with my problem?
[08:14] <syclopse> crackerjackz: actually after giving some efforts I am able to stream using vlc, Thanks for your support, Thanks a lot

[08:15] <dexter_e> Yay! Wow I only today realized that there is an Ubuntu IRC channel! Bonus!
[08:15] <djcaston> Chipzzz ok thank you

[08:15] <wsagent> is there any software like logme in for ubuntu ??? pls help
[08:15] <bazhang> furqan, is the device mounted?
[08:16] <villa> why is my nework connection grey and useless?
[08:16] <djcaston> cursingeye the built in ubuntu internet sharing option in the preferences for my LAN interface
[08:16] <vanquish349> Chipzzz: what exactly am i looking for
[08:16] <wsagent> is there any software like logme in for ubuntu ??? pls help
[08:16] <furqan> bazhang: not
[08:17] <bazhang> http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/3-logmein-alternatives-ubuntu/ wsagent
[08:17] <why-not> furqan: ill be honest, i am kinda at a loss about your usb device. Other then try it on another computer if you have the possibility
[08:17] <bazhang> furqan, whats the error that gparted gives then
[08:17] <K-4U> Is there anybody here who can help me with some USB problems, naming the cdc_acm driver?
[08:18] <Chipzzz> vanquish349: the numbers I mentioned are the uptime (in seconds). when they reset to zero indicates a reboot... look around for errors or warnings immediately before that
[08:18] <cursingeye> djcaston:i believe you will need to do it using iptables via the shell
[08:18] <crackerjackz> !samba
[08:18] <vanquish349> Chipzzz: ok
[08:18] <bazhang> crackerjackz, /msg ubottu please
[08:18] <djcaston> cursingeye i would, but i have no idea how to use iptables and its a bit over my head... there isnt a gui that i can use to just forward a port from one connection through another?
[08:19] <djcaston> cursingeye or at least a simpler interface
[08:19] <furqan> bazhang: http://i.imgur.com/p8BIg.png
[08:19] <vanquish349> Chipzzz: it is like that reboot is missing
[08:19] <wsagent> bazhang: Thanks a lot
[08:19] <furqan> bazhang: http://i.imgur.com/nFxQh.png
[08:19] <furqan> bazhang: check them
[08:20] <K-4U> Is there anybody here who can help me with some USB problems, naming the cdc_acm driver?
[08:20] <Chipzzz> furqan: after fdisk, you might try "parted mkpart" to do it manually
[08:21] <crackerjackz> bazhang, something like /msg ubottu !samba ?
[08:21] <cursingeye> djcaston: not that I know of no
[08:21] <why-not> djcaston:you can look into firestarter, it might have what your looking for
[08:21] <bazhang> crackerjackz, or /msg ubottu info package   / find package  , yes
[08:21] <djcaston> why-not will it allow me to forward a port through the shared internet connection?
[08:21] <bazhang> djcaston, simple iptables? gufw
[08:22] <bazhang> !info gufw | djcaston
[08:22] <cursingeye> djcaston:  actually look it guidedog, should give you what you need
[08:22] <djcaston> bazhang thanks i will check this out
[08:22] <Chipzzz> vanquish349: how about in messages?
[08:22] <bazhang> crackerjackz, no need for the !  in /msg with the bot
[08:22] <djcaston> cursingeye i tried to grab that, couldnt find it
[08:23] <vanquish349> Chipzzz: i mean the boot is there except the think before it is 2 hours before and i restarted my computeras soon as it crashed
[08:23] <crackerjackz> bazhang, ty
[08:23] <cursingeye> djcaston: so "apt-get install guidedog" is no good?
[08:23] <vanquish349> thing*
[08:23] <chu_> Hey all, when someone says "do a complete reinstallation" what exactly does this entail? Something tells me not just purge and install.
[08:24] <furqan> Chipzzz: it says /dev/sdb does not exist BUT gparted is showing it
[08:24] <K-4U> 1408 persons, but not that much really active... great
[08:24] <bazhang> chu_, got a separate home partition?
[08:24] <bazhang> !home | chu_
[08:24] <djcaston> cursingeye nope no installation candidate it says
[08:24] <chu_> bazhang: Oh right, bad question on my part. It's just code-blocks acting up.
[08:25] <bazhang> chu_, although the installer can mark it and keep /home these days
[08:25] <chu_> bazhang: The fix seems to be a "complete reinstallation"
[08:25] <why-not> bazhang:gufw does not do nat, i checked (at least does not give the option on my single nic client)
[08:25] <cursingeye> djcaston: did you run apt-get update first?
[08:25] <bazhang> djcaston, its guarddog
[08:25] <bazhang> djcaston, firestarter as well
[08:25] <Chipzzz> vanquish349: it doesn't matter, if you are looking for the cause of the crash it will be in the few seconds before the reboot in the log, since nothing is logged while the machine is off
[08:25] <djcaston> bazhang isnt guarddog the associated firewall program?
[08:25] <bazhang> !firewall | djcaston
[08:25] <djcaston> bazhang whereas guidedog is for port forwarding
[08:26] <K-4U> Is there anybody here who can help me with some USB problems, naming the cdc_acm driver?
[08:26] <bazhang> K-4U, naming? you mean modprobing it, or what
[08:26] <K-4U> bazhang: i mean i have issuse with the cdc_acm module
[08:26] <K-4U> bazhang: *issues.. sorry
[08:26] <cursingeye> djcaston: what distro u using?
[08:27] <bazhang> K-4U, then specify them, will get better answers
[08:27] <djcaston> cursingeye most recent ubuntu release
[08:27] <K-4U> bazhang: there's a device, that works for several minutes, but then stops giving data. Replugging doesn't work, reloading usb modules doesn't work.. the only thing that works is rebooting my pc
[08:28] <bazhang> K-4U, whats the device name and function please
[08:28] <K-4U> bazhang: it's the IR Toy, for lirc, don't know if you've ever heard of it?
[08:29] <cursingeye> djcaston:  http://pkgs.org/ubuntu-10.10/ubuntu-universe-i386/guidedog_1.0.0-5ubuntu2_i386.deb.html
[08:29] <cursingeye> will give you the port forward tabs etc that you need
[08:29] <bazhang> http://dangerousprototypes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1545  <--- K-4U this?
[08:30] <djcaston> thanks cursingeye
[08:30] <K-4U> bazhang: no, i can connect to it, but my device uses the cdc_acm drivers, and not the usb-serial.. so i have a /dev/ttyACM0
[08:31] <Chipzzz> furqan: you can try formatting it manually with parted (not gparted) from the command line. you'll get more control that way
[08:31] <bazhang> cursingeye, that does not seem to be there for natty , ie guidedog
[08:32] <bazhang> !info guidedog
[08:32] <djcaston> blehhh
[08:33] <djcaston> this is really proving to be aggrivating

[08:38] <crackerjackz> it looks neat, i wanna play around with it

[08:39] <chalcedony> does anyone know how to get the clock and calendar back in my Panel? it vanished - i have ubuntu 10.04 - when i open System > Administration > Time and Date it's grayed out?
[08:39] <Alchemist88> Hi, anyone around to offer some help?
[08:39] <bazhang> Alchemist88, ask a question first and see
[08:40] <crackerjackz> the only thing i don't trust about the project is that it was started by someone who is part of the united states department of homeland security
[08:41] <Alchemist88> I have a HP Mini 210-1000, had the netbook version of ubuntu, was installing the new beta version and an error occured. Now I have no programmes on my netbook.
[08:41] <bazhang> Alchemist88, beta version?
[08:41] <jiltdil> Any more game linke alien arena and nexuiz in ubuntu?
[08:41] <bazhang> Alchemist88, there is not a beta version currently
[08:41] <Alchemist88> 11.04
[08:41] <bazhang> Alchemist88, thats final, not beta
[08:42] <Alchemist88> ah sorry, the final 11.04 then
[08:43] <chalcedony> i didn't do anything to get rid of my clock, i just can't find it - help?
[08:43] <bazhang> Alchemist88, what was the error message or messages you received
[08:44] <claudio_> ...
[08:44] <Alchemist88> On the update manager while I was installing the new version, it simply said 'an error has occoured while installing'
[08:45] <jiltdil> Is ubuntu providing urban terror game?
[08:45] <bazhang> Alchemist88, from cd? usb stick? did you md5 the iso? what did you use to install said iso to cd or usb stick, did you do the disk integrity check after md5'ing the iso
[08:45] <furqan> Chipzzz: i have exactly this type of error http://superuser.com/questions/32825/partition-table-corrupted-usb-flash-drive
[08:45] <Alchemist88> I already had Ubuntu installed
[08:46] <Alchemist88> so was updating, rather than installing from CD/ USB ect
[08:46] <antivirtel> do I need something to support EFI/GPT partitions(the bigger then 2 TB) on lucid?
[08:47] <bazhang> jiltdil, directly from main repos? not to my knowledge, you can look for PPA of it though
[08:48] <jiltdil> bazhang:thanks
[08:48] <jiltdil> bazhang:is using ppa for this game is safe?
[08:48] <bazhang> jiltdil, up to you to decide, PPA are at your own risk.
[08:50] <Chipzzz> furqan: if you used fdisk to partition it and then "parted mkfs" to make a file system on it, I don't think there is much else you can try
[08:50] <bazhang> Alchemist88, so this was in fact a version upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04. a good idea to mention that for future posts.
[08:50] <mgolisch> antivirtel: no not that i would know of, just make sure you create a gpt partition map on the disk and use parted/gparted for creating partitions
[08:51] <Alchemist88> baz, yes it was a version upgrade
[08:51] <antivirtel> ok, thanks mgolisch, I successfully created it, but I saw here: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/fdisk-unable-to-create-partition-greater-2tb.html that I have to recompie the kernel.. but it is out-of-date information :)
[08:52] <bazhang> Alchemist88, you said you have no more programmes on your netbook, please clarify that
[08:53] <chalcedony> fixed, thanks guys
[08:53] <furqan> Chipzzz: okay :|
[08:55] <Alchemist88> Ok, so when I turn my netbook on, it loads as normal, with background picture as normal, wireless connects. everything is fine. But there are 0 programmes, there is no menu bar on the left, I cannot bring up anything, no files, folders, prgrammes.
[08:55] <bazhang> Alchemist88, okay. try alt ctrl t to get a terminal
[08:56] <Alchemist88> yep that works
[08:56] <jiltdil> Is game drift linux is not free?
[08:56] <bazhang> Alchemist88, once you have that sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade
[08:56] <bazhang> jiltdil, its not supported here, ask their forums
[08:57] <Jemt> jiltdil: GDL is a commercial distribution. It includes CrossOver Games which is the technology used to run Windows games. That's why it's not free. Ask in PMSG if you have more questions :)
[08:57] <Alchemist88> sorry bazhang, what do i type into the terminal?
[08:57] <jiltdil> jemt:bazhang:thanks
[08:57] <Jemt> :)
[08:57] <bazhang> Alchemist88, I hit this same bug and installed unity-2d-launcher to use the gui to fix things

The same happens on Ubuntu 11.04 and LibreOffice. What am I doing wrong?

[09:24] <Jake556778> i'm new to ubuntu
[09:25] <Jake556778> so i want to block all ports except one port
[09:25] <Jake556778> how can i do it on ubuntu
[09:25] <bullgard4> Jake556778: It is not advisable to block all ports except one.
[09:26] <Jake556778> ok np just tell me
[09:26] <Jake556778> let say i want it as a FTP server
[09:26] <schone> llutz: i have created a partition using the default values, how do you mount and then view the contents?
[09:26] <Jake556778> nothing els should connect to it
[09:26] <Jake556778> or HTTP server
[09:26] <llutz> schone:sudo mount /dev/sdXY /mnt
[09:26] <Jake556778> for security i want only 1 port open
[09:26] <th^^> anyone happen to have subscription to linux format? =P
[09:27] <Chipzzz> Jake556778: ports are closed by default... if you don't install a server to listen to a port, it won't be open
[09:27] <llutz> Jake556778: 1st you want to read about "ports" and how to configure services
[09:27] <schone> llutz: you must specify the filesystem type - any idea what filesystem I should specify?
[09:27] <Jake556778> llutz i've been using windows for more than 15 yrs
[09:27] <Jake556778> so it's not easy to understand what you are saying
[09:27] <g[r]eek> Hello friends. I upgrade to 11.04 and now my sound doesn't work.
[09:28] <llutz> Jake556778: i had a cat for 12 yrs. so what?
[09:28] <Jake556778> is there a firewall that i can download to block all ports
[09:28] <llutz> Jake556778:  <Chipzzz> Jake556778: ports are closed by default... if you don't install a server to listen to a port, it won't be open
[09:28] <llutz> Jake556778: this is linux
[09:28] <llutz> (its the same with win btw)

[10:05] <foufis> iceroot: i have tried from backports but installs 2.6.38.10 which breaks my gflrx..
[10:05] <gohdan> Will123: human contact is overrated. you cant make install a personality
[10:05] <iceroot> foufis: you will not find the older one 2.6.38.8
[10:05] <iceroot> foufis: not in an official repo
[10:05] <Crimson22> nvm, figured it out
[10:06] <Will123> gohdan: haha don't i know it :P
[10:06] <Will123> tyreza: it probably doesn't help that your root filesystem is readonly. have you looked at any of the google answers? http://linuxmafia.com/faq/VALinux-kb/boot-hang-after-vfs-message.html
[10:06] <tyreza> of course your not paid for support, but when ubuntu do marketing i m good placed to say ubuntu is better than xOS because of his support etc .... Will123
[10:07] <foufis> iceroot: oh didn`t know that..so i have to wait to fix the bug with 2.6.38.10.thanks!
[10:07] <a|3x> iceroot, http://pastebin.com/96B0TVpi
[10:07] <iceroot> i want to build sw-raid. on sda there is my current system, sdb is emtpy. i copied the partion table to sdb, added sdb1 to md0 but when i want to add sda1 to md0 it says sda1 is busy. can i only build the raid with a live-cd, so sda is not mounted?
[10:07] <Sidewinder1> tyreza, I checked your lllq.png; I don't understand those error messages; could it be a bad install? Did you md5sum the ISO image prior to burning/installing?
[10:08] <iceroot> a|3x: ok. you are only using offical repos + vbox-repo. did you run sudo apt-get update already?
[10:09] <gohdan> anyone know how to get ubuntu to stop hiding things and display the noisy boot the way debian does?
[10:09] <a|3x> iceroot, well the update manager popped up and i hit update
[10:10] <a|3x> iceroot, i mean, i hit install updates
[10:10] <soreau> gohdan: You likely have to boot without the splash kernel arg
[10:10] <iceroot> a|3x: ok please run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[10:10] <iceroot> a|3x: if there are any errors please put them to pastebin
[10:11] <a|3x> iceroot, i don't want to upgrade to 10.10
[10:11] <soreau> gohdan: and or without quiet
[10:12] <a|3x> iceroot, by the way, i have software raid (mirroring for my 2 identical drives) and i have full disk encryption
[10:12] <gohdan> soreau: thanks. i shall investigate
[10:12] <Will123> gohdan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Configuring%20GRUB%202 <[10:13] <iceroot> a|3x: great :) that is the part i am doing at the moment with my system :) or better i am trying it
[10:13] <markskilbeck> Hi, all. When typing on my laptop, my palm may brush the touchpad located neath the spacebar which will emit a click.
[10:13] <markskilbeck> Is there anyway to adjust the pressure needed on the touchpad to consider a click?
[10:13] <gohdan> Will123: i was looking at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[10:13] <a|3x> iceroot, well i did it using alternate ubuntu installer
[10:14] <iceroot> a|3x: i am trying the step in an already running system
[10:14] <th0r> markskilbeck: touchfreeze is supposed to do that. Or synclient can usually be used to turn the touchpad on and off or adjust certain values
[10:15] <Will123> gohdan: if you're running a recent version of ubuntu, the article you were looking at is out of date
[10:15] <Sidewinder1> So, what the heck is with the floodbots this morning?
[10:15] <hwq001> a|3x: try sudo dpkg --configure -a ,but i am not sure
[10:15] <Will123> gohdan: we're using grub 2 now
[10:15] <simgunz> does anyone know how can I change the name of a partition from /dev/sda8 to /dev/sda5 in the partition table?
[10:15] <soreau> markskilbeck: Perhaps google for xorg.conf Input Section and/or synaptics
[10:16] <markskilbeck> th0r, soreau: cheers.
[10:16] <mgolisch> simgunz: you cant
[10:16] <simgunz> mgolisch, so I have to delete and recreate the partitons, right?
[10:17] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[10:18] <a|3x> iceroot, hwq001, oh never mind, apparently my /boot ran out of space, when are they going to fix default /boot partition size?!!
[10:18] <iceroot> a|3x: there is no reason to do that
[10:18] <Dr_Willis> theres a /boot/ default?
[10:18] <iceroot> a|3x: but 11.04 is not using /boot as extra partitoon anymore
[10:18] <Sidewinder1> Ah, that explains it..
[10:18] <a|3x> no reason! how about failing updates
[10:18] <mgolisch> simgunz: yeah
[10:18] <gohdan> safe  to just comment out 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" '  from /etc/default/grub?
[10:19] <iceroot> a|3x: how about removing unsed kernels
[10:19] <impiza> simgunz rightclick properties
[10:19] <Dr_Willis> given that making a /boot/ partition is not the default..
[10:19] <soreau> simgunz: Since the nodes in /dev/ represent physical hardware devices, you would probably have to move the partition or repartition altogether
[10:19] <iceroot> Dr_Willis: but it was some times ago
[10:19] <Dr_Willis> gohdan,  i do that all the time. or use 'noquiet nosplash'
[10:19] <a|3x> i am a dumb user, i don't know anything about any removal of old kernels
[10:19] <Dr_Willis> iceroot,  I dont recall it ever being part of the standard install of ubuntu.
[10:19] <iceroot> Dr_Willis: 8.04
[10:19] <Dr_Willis> iceroot,  i dont recall it doing that.
[10:19] <soreau> gohdan: yes, and run update-grub afterward
[10:20] <impiza> sumgunz use gparted when creating partion or format partion there you can label partion
[10:20] <Alchemist88> Can you perform a system resore from the terminal?
[10:20] <g[r]eek> Ok I followed the instructions in the Sound Troubleshooting wiki. My built-in sound card is being detected just fine. My volume settings are normal. I even tried the step where I purge all my sound packages and re-install them. Still no sound. And all I did was upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 and now there is no sound.
[10:20] <iceroot> Dr_Willis: now its only creating / instead of / /boot /home :(
[10:20] <Dr_Willis> If i set up a /boot/ partition - i keep a few GB in size these days. abnd keep ISO files there i can boot via grub2 - for 'emergancy' rescue features.
[10:20] <Alchemist88> Ie I want to go back a few days
[10:21] <psyche> hw do in stall my sql in ubuntu as im new to ubuntu
[10:21] <Will123> Dr_Willis: wasn't there a time when you couldn't boot from ext4, so there had to be a seperate /boot partition if you wanted ext4 for /?
[10:21] <soreau> ! sql | psyche
[10:21] <iceroot> psyche: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install mysql-server
[10:21] <iceroot> Will123: grub1 cant boot ext4
[10:21] <a|3x> iceroot, how are you going to boot and initialize your software raid and full disk encryption without a boot partition?
[10:21] <psyche> thanks guys
[10:21] <soreau> ! mysql | psyche
[10:21] <Dr_Willis> Will123,  i dont recall. only reason i recall a need for /boot/ was the old LILO 1024 Cyl Limit.
[10:21] <psyche> i shall try thanks again @ soreau @ iceroot
[10:22]  * gohdan reboots
[10:22] <iceroot> a|3x: that is the point i am asking myself at the moment
[10:22] <psyche> @ ubottue im specfic in only havin mysql as my application will be configured to that
[10:22] <iceroot> a|3x: i was very surprised ubuntu didnt create /boot
[10:23] <iceroot> a|3x: as it seems i will reinstall and use the alternate-cd instead of fighting with this fresh instalation
[10:23] <Alchemist88> anyone? is it possible to perform a system restore from the terminal?
[10:23] <iceroot> Alchemist88: what is a system-restore?
[10:24] <Dr_Willis> bbl off to work.
[10:24] <soreau> Alchemist88: Really, I dont think ubuntu supports <quote>going back a few days</quote>
[10:24] <Alchemist88> :p
[10:24] <Alchemist88> yes, but you get what I mean?
[10:25] <impiza> system restore is used in windows its very usefull but i dont know how to do that in linux
[10:25] <Sidewinder1> Alchemist88, I believe Sys. Restore is a windows thing; not available in ubuntu; other than having a back-up of your /home directory and copying it back, so to speak.
[10:25] <gohdan> !tell Alchemist88 about backups
[10:25] <soreau> Alchemist88: What did you do that you want to undo?
[10:25] <iceroot> Alchemist88: ah, you can have snapshots on some filesystems
[10:25] <Will123> Alchemist88: there are moves to create system restore like functionality in future, but not right now
[10:25] <iceroot> Alchemist88: but if i am correct ext2,3,4 doesnt support it
[10:26] <g[r]eek> *bump* - Sound not working issue. I followed the instructions in the Sound Troubleshooting wiki. My built-in sound card is being detected just fine. My volume settings are normal. I even tried the step where I purge all my sound packages and re-install them. Still no sound. And all I did was upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 and now there is no sound.
[10:26] <Alchemist88> Im talking about my netbook, I had an older version of ubuntu, then updated to 11.04. and now I have no menu or able to select programmes.
[10:26] <soreau> g[r]eek: What does alsamixer show you?
[10:27] <g[r]eek> soreau, normal output (a couple of bar charts, Master on maximum volume)
[10:27] <Alchemist88> I tryed updating and upgrading via the terminal and It stil says there is an error
[10:27] <iceroot> Alchemist88: so you have now a different gui?
[10:27] <Alchemist88> gui?
[10:27] <gluesniffmonkey> Can I boot an intel iMac without os x using the alternate 64-bit image for the intel mac?
[10:27] <Will123> Alchemist88: doing an in place upgrade is always going to be riskier than doing a clean install
[10:27] <bullgard4> What is the preferred GNOME 2 way in Natty to invoke gnome-power-statistics?
[10:27] <soreau> g[r]eek: What about lsmod|grep snd
[10:28] <soreau> g[r]eek: What card is it, intel hda?
[10:28] <Sidewinder1> Alchemist88, I know nothing about Netbook but you can boot into Classic in 11.04...
[10:28] <Will123> Alchemist88: are you getting to the gdm login menu, or not even that far?
[10:28] <g[r]eek> soreau, lsmod | grep snd gives me quite a few lines, and yeah, the last one is snd_hda_inteal
[10:28] <pfarrell> hi! I have a machine with kvm virtual machines running on it, installed by another administrator (I don't know anything about kvm). How would I get a root shell inside one of the kvm guests running on a given machine?
[10:28] <Sidewinder1> !classic | Alchemist88
[10:28] <soreau> ! intel-hda | g[r]eek
[10:28] <soreau> ! intelhda | g[r]eek
[10:28] <Alchemist88> yer I can login and do anything pretty much, just no files or folders or menu bar avaliable
[10:28] <g[r]eek> soreau, ok thanks will check it out and get back to you
[10:29] <Alchemist88> but if i go on the terminal then go on get online help, it loads firefox fine
[10:29] <soreau> g[r]eek: I dont know any more than that link has to offer
[10:29] <g[r]eek> soreau, ok thanks
[10:29] <soreau> no problem :p
[10:30] <jvgeli> need help, Maverick 64bit freezes when I put 6GB of RAM but is running well on 2GB. Have windows on the same machine and no freezes with that
[10:30] <deem> jvgeli: which kernel do you using?
[10:31] <SwedeMike> jvgeli: have you run memtest?
[10:31] <Alchemist88> whats the short cut key for log out?
[10:31] <markskilbeck> com
[10:31] <soreau> jvgeli: At what point does it freeze? Do you see anything interesting in syslog?
[10:32] <Will123> 
[10:35] <SpiderFred> hi what program I can use to keep track of my internet usage? like how many bytes I downloaded and uploaded per month and other related statistics?
[10:35] <ikonia>  /window 14
[10:35] <ikonia> oops
[10:36] <Alchemist88> loaded in ubunut classic and its still the same
[10:37] <carldoncarl> ok, what would cause my google searches to be redirected to my ISP's dns search?
[10:37] <Jake556778> anyone in here ?
[10:38] <llutz> SpiderFred: vnstat  might do what you want
[10:38] <sgronblo> How can I figure out what a package does when it's being installed?
[10:40] <jrib> sgronblo: read debian/ in the source package?  Or read the files for the package in /var/lib/dpkg/info/?
[10:42] <sgronblo> It seems to me (from subversion's configure options that the ruby bindings should be installed in ruby's sitedir). I installed libsvn-ruby1.8 with apt-get checked in my /usr/local/lib/site_ruby but nothing was there. Instead apt-file reports the bindings being installed in /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/svn
[10:43] <jrib> sgronblo: /usr/local/ is admin land and not apt land.  APT should never touch /usr/local
[10:44] <gaurav_natty> from where i 4get themes for ubuntu 11.0
[10:44] <sgronblo> jrib: Thanks for teaching me about /var/lib/dpkg/info, hadn't seen this before
[10:45] <sgronblo> so basically the deb explodes the files listed in dpkg/info/pkgname/list onto the filesystem and then runs postinst?
[10:45] <jrib> sgronblo: I'm not very familiar with ruby but are you sure site_dir is only /usr/local/lib/site_ruby ?  My guess is it's multiple paths
[10:46] <poil> Hello. I just installed ubuntu and lxde, and the wifi just doesn't work on lxde. Any idea why ? ty
[10:47] <jrib> sgronblo: there's also preinst
[10:47] <jrib> sometimes
[10:47] <sgronblo> jrib: yeah i assume there are other hooks too
[10:47] <sgronblo> but the deb system seems relatively simple
[10:47] <sgronblo> jrib: I'm not 100% sure about the sitedir, but quite sure. The configure --help describes it as "--with-sitedir=DIR      site libraries in DIR [[RUBY_LIB_PREFIX/site_ruby]]"
[10:48] <gaurav_natty> what does this mean in terminal" gaurav@Crack-Linux:~$
[10:48] <bullgard4> What is the preferred GNOME 2 way in Natty to invoke gnome-power-statistics?
[10:48] <jrib> sgronblo: might try the ruby channel?  (though they might say it's an ubuntu packaging issue)
[10:48] <poil> I just installed ubuntu and lxde, and the wifi just doesn't work on lxde. Anyone know anything about that please ?
[10:49] <epifanio> hello All
[10:49] <sgronblo> Also running ruby's interpreter and importing rubygems and executing print Config::CONFIG['sitedir'] shows /usr/local/lib/site_ruby
[10:49] <jrib> sgronblo: that seems strange to me if ruby is the ubuntu packaged ruby
[10:49] <sgronblo> jrib: That's why I decided to check here. Because subversion's INSTALL file seems to imply that its bindings for ruby should go in its sitedir
[10:50] <sgronblo> jrib: It is the system ruby
[10:51] <th0r> poil: is network manager running?
[10:53] <sgronblo> So I was wondering if the apt-get libsvnruby package had gone and installed it in some other directory that it felt was more appropriate.
[10:57] <zeusz> hi all!
[10:57] <bogdaniel> zeusz, hello :)
[10:58] <zeusz> ha nem működik a frissítéskezelő
[10:58] <gaurav_natty> can anyone tell me from where i can find themes for ubuntu 11.04
[10:58] <epifanio> sorry i'm having connection problems
[10:58] <zeusz> hogy lehet frissíteni?
 poil: is network manager running? - What is exactly "network manager" ? I've seen a Network Tools here, but nothing interesting
[10:59] <impiza> zeusz i am using mint 11
[10:59] <[Joose]> When I use the command 'nxj', it works. However, I need to run 'sudo nxj' and when I do that I get an error 'sudo: nxj: command not found'. What's wrong?
[10:59] <zeusz> o sorry!
[11:00] <bullgard4> What is the preferred GNOME 2 way in Natty to invoke gnome-power-statistics?
[11:00] <th0r> poil: start here....http://ubuntu-lxde.wikidot.com/wifi-control
[11:01] <impiza> zeusz if you want to see my desktop screenshots then please visit my blog http://gsruthin.blogspot.com
[11:01] <poil> ty
[11:01] <jrib> [Joose]: put nxj in sudo's default path or provide the absolute path to nxj
[11:05] <newgen> hi there. i come here once again because ubuntu failed (again) spectaculary to update to the current version
[11:06] <newgen> it is currently not even able to boot because it broke the crypto filesystem luks
[11:06] <soreau> newgen: Why don't you try installing cleanly?
[11:06] <newgen> rofl
[11:06] <newgen> yet another mircosoft solution
[11:06] <th^^> what's the point of upgrades if they don't work? =P
[11:07] <soreau> newgen: No, it's not a 'mircosoft solution'
[11:07] <iceroot> newgen: what errors you get?
[11:07] <iceroot> soreau: reinstall is a microsoft-solution
[11:07] <soreau> iceroot: No, it is not.
[11:07] <newgen> grub can't find the filesystem. I am supposed to give him the richt "root=" parameter
[11:07] <soreau> A microsoft solution would be to use windows
[11:08] <iceroot> newgen: you have a full encrypted / with luks?
[11:08] <newgen> why has my ubuntu update fucked up my grub configuration? i never allowed him todo so?
[11:08] <newgen> of cource
[11:08] <gregorsamsa> Hi, I have problems with dual boot. Just installed ubuntu along with windows XP and now nothing loads.
[11:08] <iceroot> newgen: can you paste the grub-line which is needed for boot
[11:08] <newgen> no, i cant
[11:09] <iceroot> newgen: why?
[11:09] <newgen> this very cool ubuntu producec just a black screen, even in recovery mode
[11:09] <iceroot> newgen: pull grub with shift. then go to the line you want and hit "e" then you have the line
[11:09] <soreau> ! language | newgen
[11:09] <iceroot> newgen: and if you still flame ubuntu, i dont htink you will get support here
[11:10] <soreau> newgen: Are you able to boot a ubuntu live cd?
[11:11] <newgen> I already booted the live cd. but it was unable to recover some broke files until i followed this solution_: http://mrzard.posterous.com/failed-to-connect-to-socket-comubuntuupstart
[11:11] <soreau> newgen: Which version of ubuntu did you boot live?
[11:11] <newgen> 10.04 lts
[11:11] <newgen> with rescue filessystem mode
[11:12] <soreau> And what version are you trying to update to?
[11:12] <iceroot> newgen: can you paste the grub-line which is needed for boot
[11:12] <newgen> no, because the update completely removed my menu.cfg / grub.cfg
[11:13] <iceroot> newgen: boot a live-cd, chroot into the current system and run "sudo update-grub"
[11:13] <newgen> i am currenty re-generating it
[11:13] <iceroot> newgen: remeber for the live-cd you need the same architectur as the installed system
[11:14] <newgen> btw. sorry for my emotional response. i was just planning todo somthing else than repairing a broken linux again
[11:14] <newgen> wait
[11:14] <iceroot> newgen: remeber always "never touch a running system"
[11:14] <newgen> by same architecture you mean... for example: x86 ?
[11:14] <iceroot> newgen: yes
[11:15] <iceroot> newgen: run the live-cd, mount / and then use "chroot /path/where/you/mounted/it  then run sudo update-grub
[11:15] <newgen> iceroot, i would never have touched it. but the stupid auto-reminder which steadily pops up forced me to...
[11:16] <soreau> It doesn't force you to do anything
[11:17] <newgen> when a window pops up all the time, i feel forced. next time i will search a way to disable the "update" window
[11:17] <sudokill> i think you can turn it off in  the options
[11:17] <iceroot> newgen: you can set "dont to dist-upgrade" "only upgrade to next lts version"
[11:17] <iceroot> newgen: or "do nothing"
[11:17] <th0r> I wonder if turning off the popup is harder than doing a dist-upgrade?
[11:18] <iceroot> th0r: yes because you have to find that option instead of just clicking yes
[11:18] <newgen> well... that would leave me with horribly old packages, wouldn't it?
[11:18] <soreau> newgen: Case in point, upgrades are typically problematic which is why I always suggest a clean install
[11:18] <iceroot> newgen: with stable packages from 10.04
[11:18] <iceroot> newgen: but older then the packages from 11.10 or 11.04 yes
[11:19] <soreau> th0r: heh
[11:19] <hagus> I am running wubi - on Windows 7 (32bit) - but have noticed that the file being downloaded is AMD64 - Will it still work on my 32 bit or should I cancel the download?
[11:19] <newgen> ok. grup update done. one question: on boot up, i get in grub the kernel for selection and "previous versions". why is that?
[11:20] <sudokill> newgen does it boot
[11:20] <newgen> ...waitin...
[11:20] <sudokill> did you upgrade from 10..04 to 11.04?
[11:20] <newgen> ... black screen... cursor blinking...
[11:21] <Sidewinder1> hagus, 32 bit will run on 64, but not the other way around.
[11:21] <newgen> no, it does not boot
[11:21] <newgen> not message at all
[11:21] <hagus> Thanks, Sidewinder1 - so there is not point in my continuing with that download.
[11:21] <sudokill> sounds about right. try a clean install
[11:21] <Sidewinder1> hagus, Correct.
[11:22] <MichaelMell> hi
[11:22] <MichaelMell> im having touble getting to the grub menu over serial console
[11:23] <MichaelMell> i've bee playing around with the setting in /etc/default/grub
[11:23] <MichaelMell> but it doesn't seem to change anything
[11:23] <iceroot> newgen: is the luks-modul loaded?
[11:23] <ikonia> MichaelMell: that sort of thing is normally set in the bios
[11:23] <newgen> iceroot, cannot see. monitor is black
[11:23] <newgen> keyboard is not responding
[11:24] <sudokill> lots of people seem to have that problem
[11:24] <iceroot> newgen: but does something come up after grub before the black screen? so we can be sure grub is reading correctly the encrpyted discs
[11:24] <newgen> no, nothing at all
[11:24] <newgen> no points loading any init levels
[11:24] <newgen> or loading kernel
[11:24] <newgen> nothing
[11:24] <iceroot> newgen: please paste the grub-line
[11:25] <newgen> moment
[11:25] <sudokill> newgen, is it definately booting the new kernel?
[11:25] <MichaelMell> hm.
[11:25] <MichaelMell> well. I do get the bios and everything on the console
[11:25] <MichaelMell> I just don't get the grub menu to show up
[11:25] <knapper_tech> has the nvidia driver issue reached a conclusion on natty?
[11:25] <ikonia> MichaelMell: sorry, I mean that sort of setting is normally set in the bios,
[11:26] <newgen> ok, i can select the kernel 2.6.38-8-generic-pae.... typing grub line...
[11:26] <Cube``> hey guys, how do i rotate my 2nd screen by 180 degrees?
[11:26] <MichaelMell> well I've set the bios to show  in the virtual console
[11:26] <iceroot> newgen: you updates to 11.04?
[11:26] <MichaelMell> and it does
[11:26] <newgen> Cube``, use xrandr
[11:26] <sudokill> newgen, custom kernel?
[11:26] <newgen> iceroot, yes
[11:26] <MichaelMell> also the boot-process is shown
[11:26] <newgen> sudokill, no
[11:26] <MichaelMell> but only thing that doesn't show is GRUB
[11:26] <ikonia> MichaelMell: yes, I understand that, that does not mean that the console is output to the serial port
[11:27] <iceroot> newgen: 10.04 - 10.10 - 11.04?
[11:27] <MichaelMell> and I can't access it either holding "SHIFT"
[11:27] <E3D3> I made a link to Kate (editor) on my toolbar. Opened Kate & tweaked it. With R-mouse or Menu a not-configurated Kate opens ?
[11:27] <E3D3> Suddenly I have 3 different configurations/Kate's ? How can I force the 2 other links to synchronize my tweaks/addons etc ?
[11:27] <E3D3> I want to see everywhere the same Kate (Changing all commands to -b %U didn't work)
[11:27] <hagus> I have run the Wubi via console using wubi --32bit, Sidewinder1 - that has fetched the i386.iso - thanks for keeping me right.
[11:27] <newgen> iceroot, 10.10 -> 11.04
[11:27] <MichaelMell> ikonia: I don't understand?
[11:27] <Cube``> newgen: and i have to run it @ every boot?
[11:27] <Sidewinder1> hagus, Glad to've helped. :D
[11:27] <sudokill> newgen, can you not do a fresh install?
[11:28] <newgen> sudokill, why should i destroy my complete installation? my configuration files... my data... my hardware specific modifications...
[11:28] <sudokill> because you cant boot
[11:28] <poil> Is Ubuntu 10.04.X the same thing as "ubuntu-10.04.2-desktop-i386" ?
[11:28] <newgen> sudokill, thats not the way to write a os
[11:29] <ikonia> poil: yes
[11:29] <sudokill> but ubuntu upgrades are a nightmare
[11:29] <th0r> newgen: that is why most of us use a separate partition for /home
[11:29] <poil> ty
[11:29] <newgen> sudokill, i will break this system apart until it boots
[11:29] <sudokill> okk
[11:29] <iceroot> newgen: do you had a look at /var/log/syslog? (live-cd, mounted your installation)
[11:29] <newgen> iceroot, not yes
[11:29] <knapper_tech> So...... back to nvda drivers 173
[11:29] <newgen> iceroot, not yet
[11:29] <iceroot> newgen: and your complete / is encrypted?
[11:30] <newgen> Cube``, you can put the xrandr line into a script or try to figure out, how to configure it with ubuntu board methods
[11:30] <newgen> iceroot, yes, except /boot. it'S work policy
[11:31] <iceroot> newgen: and your setup is to type in a password? or do you have a key stored somehwere?
[11:31] <newgen> iceroot, i use a very long password
[11:32] <Cube``> newgen: ye kk thx
[11:32] <iceroot> newgen: also, when you are again in the chroot, please paste the ouput of "sudo dpkg -l | grep -v ^^"
[11:33] <iceroot> newgen: also, when you are again in the chroot, please paste the ouput of "sudo dpkg -l | grep -v ^ii"
[11:33] <newgen> Cube``, i would have given you my xrandr configuration, but my ubuntu is currently....broken
[11:34] <knapper_tech> http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2010-04/msg00433.html
[11:36] <newgen> iceroot, ssh to broken system running live cd: PTY allocation request failed on channel 0 - frozen
[11:36] <newgen> so much for copy and paste
[11:36] <iceroot> newgen: :(
[11:37] <iceroot> newgen: already chrooted or the real live-system?
[11:37] <newgen> muhaha... time for netcat
[11:38] <Cuzzie> Which version of Ubuntu are you guys using right now?
[11:38] <Traintop> Hi Folks! -I just tried to output the content of my lightning/sunbird-calendar: according to mozilla-doc this file is an sqlite v3-file but "sqlite storage.sdb" exits with error "file is encrypted or not a database"... -any ideas how to get access to the contents of this file?
[11:39] <diogovk> Hi. Is there a place where I can see the "history" of a package?
[11:39] <newgen> iceroot, already chrooted
[11:39] <cheche> How can I put back all the files from trash to the original location?
[11:39] <iceroot> diogovk: packages.ubuntu.com  choose the package and then select "changelog"
[11:39] <Gnimsh> cheche: select them and drag there where you want to put them
[11:39] <codingenesis> how to take the snapshot of our desktop ??
[11:40] <iceroot> codingenesis: press the print-key
[11:40] <arfbtwn> cheche: open the trash, select all. Right click and restore should put them back where they were...
[11:40] <diogovk> I tried that, but I could not find the package
[11:40] <codingenesis> i used shutter....any other than that...
[11:40] <iceroot> cheche: if i am correct you can right-click the trash and select recover
[11:40] <diogovk> the package name is jsoncpp
[11:40] <Gnimsh> codingenesis, prt sc sys rq key
[11:40] <codingenesis> iceroot, when i press print screen nothing happens !!!
[11:40] <SambaEXT> can i share a folder in an ext4 device via samba...and access to it from a windows computer with nothing to do?
[11:40] <diogovk> I preatty sure it is from lucid.
[11:40] <airtonix> codingenesis: world in crisis!
[11:40] <airtonix> dun dun dunnnn
[11:40] <iceroot> SambaEXT: yes
[11:40] <codingenesis> Gnimsh, can't get you...!!
[11:41] <cheche> well this is what i found: a dual-boot machine that suddenly windows stop workking with NTldr not found
[11:41] <SambaEXT> it doesnt matter that it is an ext4 then
[11:41] <codingenesis> airtonix, crisis ?? due to my silly question ???
[11:41] <cheche> and i found all those files on the .Trash-1000
[11:41] <iceroot> SambaEXT: windows doesnt see if it is ext2,3,4 or another file-system because its using the smb/cifs protocoll
[11:41] <airtonix> codingenesis: due the explicit expression of desperation and impending doom
[11:41] <newgen> iceroot, ok, i ..well... used netcat to get the results for  sudo dpkg -l | grep -v ^ii
[11:41] <Gnimsh> codingenesis, on my keyboard the key for screenshots is Prt Sc/Sys Rq
[11:41] <Traintop> SambaEXT: in ubuntu you can share folders in a win-network by right-clicking them; but you have to asure the permissions are set right
[11:41] <arfbtwn> cheche: You need to reinstall ntldr, using. E.g. recovery console
[11:42] <qin> airtonix: off-topic, but nice
[11:42] <iceroot> newgen: nice hack. please paste it to pastebin
[11:42] <SambaEXT> thnx iceroot
[11:42] <cheche> arfbtwn: with testdisk right?
[11:42] <newgen> iceroot, http://pastebin.com/hCM2v7cy
[11:43] <arfbtwn> cheche: You'll need ms recovery console, or if using windows 7 the startup recovery should do the trick for you from the install cd
[11:43] <cheche> arfbtwn: this is windows xp
[11:43] <Cuzzie> Guys, is there anyway to hide the "member has joined #ubuntu" and "member has quit" messages?
[11:43] <newgen> iceroot, looks like the kernel is not properly installed?
[11:43] <airtonix> yes
[11:43] <DJones> Cuzzie: Which irc client are you using
[11:43] <iceroot> newgen: ok, everything fine with the packages. rc only means removed and still have the config
[11:43] <Cuzzie> DJones: I'm using irssi
[11:43] <DJones> !quietirssi | Cuzzie
[11:44] <DJones> Cuzzie: That info from ubottu should solve that
[11:44] <iceroot> newgen: i dont see a line with the kernel
[11:44] <newgen> iceroot, rc  linux-image-2.6.38-8-generic-pae
[11:44] <arfbtwn> cheche: hmmm, of all the files in the trash do you see ntldr there by any chance?
[11:44] <iceroot> !info linux-image
[11:44] <Traintop> nobody here comfortable with sqlite and/or sunbird/lightning-cal-file?
[11:45] <Cuzzie> Thanks DJones and ubottu!
[11:45] <cheche> arfbtwn: in the old c:\ there is only autoexec.bat
[11:45] <iceroot> newgen: sudo dpkg -l linux-image | grep ^ii
[11:45] <Bully> 哈囉
[11:45] <Bully> 有芢嗎?
[11:46] <newgen> ii 2.6.38.8.22
[11:46] <iceroot> newgen: so the newest one is installed
[11:46] <newgen> iceroot, looks ok
[11:46] <Bully> 打中文ok???
[11:46] <gohdan> !cn | bully
[11:46] <iceroot> newgen: is it also located in / boot ?
[11:46] <iceroot> newgen: is it also located in /boot ?
[11:47] <newgen> iceroot, yes, it is
[11:47] <poil> what kind of problem can a usb stick have to make windows crash when i open it ? can ubuntu deal with it? (i was gonna install ubuntu on it from a windows)
[11:47] <arfbtwn> cheche: Sounds like you'll need to do a reinstall of xp in that case. Unfortunate...
[11:47] <newgen> iceroot, wait...
[11:47] <fleischwolf> hi, is there a image to sprite converter for the gameboy advance for ubuntu ?
[11:47] <newgen> iceroot, there is vmlinuz-2.6.38-8-generic
[11:47] <cheche> arfbtwn: I found this guide: http://ubuntuguide.net/fix-windows-when-boot-files-bootinintldrare-missing
[11:47] <usr13> poil: You're going to boot from it.  Windows will not have any effect.
[11:48] <newgen> iceroot, and the corresponding initrd
[11:48] <iceroot> newgen: there should be vmlinuz, initrd
[11:48] <iceroot> newgen: ok
[11:48] <gohdan> fleischwolf: are you hacking roms?
[11:48] <newgen> iceroot, all there. and the config too
[11:48] <Cuzzie> @Bully 你進錯channel了吧?
[11:48] <iceroot> newgen: are there any hints in the syslog of the installed system?
[11:48] <fleischwolf> gohdan: well, i'm trying to implement my own game
[11:49] <newgen> iceroot, nothing that looks like an error...
[11:49] <cheche> arfbtwn: my main worry is to put all the files back to the right places within windows
[11:49] <fleischwolf> gohdan: so i don't need a rom-hacker, but a tool, that converts images to c-code (data- and palette-array)
[11:49] <gohdan> fleischwolf: usually those sprite are written or converted into whatever machine code the gba uses. some low level asm
[11:49] <iceroot> newgen: the first error you get was "unkown filesystem"?
[11:50] <arfbtwn> cheche: so are all the files in your ubuntu trash the files from your original ntfs partition?
[11:50] <iceroot> newgen: my guess is that the ramdisc is not conatining neccesarry stuff for the luks-part
[11:50] <cheche> arfbtwn: I go to the ntfs partition and ctrl + h to see the .Trash-1000
[11:50] <newgen> iceroot, i also thought that, but ... then i should get an error claiming "no root filesystem"
[11:51] <newgen> iceroot, but i get a black screen ...
[11:51] <cheche> arfbtwn: expunged files and info is there
[11:51] <cheche> arfbtwn: in files looks like the whole windows tree
[11:51] <gohdan> fleischwolf: if such a tool exists for windows, you can always try wine but YMMV in that regard
[11:51] <newgen> iceroot, and i disabled splash and quiet in the grub
[11:51] <iceroot> newgen: can you paste the grub-config with the boot-line?
[11:52] <cheche> arrrcanum42: I wonder if I should use restore-tras command for this
[11:52] <fleischwolf> gohdan: there are lots of tools for windows, but i would like some native implementation
[11:52] <newgen> iceroot, http://pastebin.com/UZqxVda6
[11:52] <sudokill> fleischwolf, windows has more rare little programs
[11:52] <arfbtwn> cheche: ok, so you should just be able to 'mv * ../' while you're in that directory
[11:52] <fleischwolf> sudokill: sadly, yes
[11:52] <newgen> iceroot, i assume the uuid is fucked up once again... (dreaming of nostalgic old times when people had /dev devices...)
[11:53] <sudokill> fleischwolf, seems like a bit of an odd program
[11:53] <fleischwolf> sudokill: why ?
[11:53] <cheche> arfbtwn: so what is the meaning of info + expunged?
[11:53] <gohdan> fleischwolf: gbadev.org
[11:53] <sudokill> fleischwolf, not your common type of program i mean
[11:53] <sudokill> maybe you can get source from somewhere idk
[11:54] <fleischwolf> gohdan: i'm familiar with gbadev.org, but i couldn't find a linux tool for this particular purpose
[11:55] <arfbtwn> cheche: I believe that's how GNU/Linux handles it's recycle bin
[11:55] <iceroot> newgen: seems ok, my line has some more options but i guess your line is ok to boot up the encrypted parts
[11:55] <arfbtwn> cheche: ie. Those directories should contain information about where the files were originally located, for example
[11:55] <iceroot> newgen: but i am missing the root-line at your config, dont know if it is needed
[11:56] <newgen> iceroot, no, its not nesessary
[11:56] <iceroot> newgen: http://pastebin.com/9LT7R63a  that my line for encrpyted /
[11:56] <gohdan> fleischwolf: 'gnufoo.org/gba' not sure how reliable or even applicable. as always caveat hacker.
[11:57] <iceroot> newgen: but setup a loglevel is maybe a good idea
[11:58] <newgen> iceroot, why do you have the root parameter twice ?
[11:58] <sudokill> fleischwolf, i done a quick google saw some gba map editor for linux not sure if its anything like what you want http://www.mdh165.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/toolsapps/toolsapps.htm
[11:58] <iceroot> newgen: hm, good question
[11:58] <diogovk> How do I know if a package was removed from the ubuntu repositories?
[11:59] <usr13> diogovk: apt-cache search package-name
[11:59] <usr13> diogovk: I suppose that's  ^^^  one way
[12:00] <Pici> diogovk: Search for the package on http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/ and check the publishing history.
[12:00] <orchata> Hi guys. I need a manual to remove safely remove ubuntu
[12:00] <gaurav_natty> while update or installing software its shows me unable 2 lock /var/lib/dgkp
[12:00] <sudokill> orchata, what do you mean
[12:00] <JoeR1> I know there is a specific Winehq channel but it seems that no one in there is talking so is there any chance I could get some advice in here?
[12:00] <sudokill> orchata, is it in a windows install or something?
[12:00] <Dr_Willis> orchata: how did you install it
[12:01] <usr13> orchata: Is it dual boot with MS Windows?
[12:01] <fleischwolf> sudokill: thanks, but it seems it's only useful for backgrounds
[12:01] <orchata> sudokill:  I have a dual boot with win 7 and ubuntu 10.10 on it. I need to remove the ubuntu one and joint the ext4 with windows ntfs fs's
[12:01] <sudokill> fleischwolf, ah ok sorry
[12:01] <sudokill> orchata, youd have to format ubuntu and reinstall win7 boot loader
[12:02] <orchata> sudokill: yeah, and how do I join ext4 with ntfs without corrupting any data
[12:02] <gaurav_natty> Dr_Willis, while updating my system or installing any packages my system shows me error " Unable to lock the adminstaration directory /var/lib/dkpg
[12:02] <JoeR1> let me simplify, can I get some wine help?
[12:02] <sudokill> orchata you cant convert
[12:02] <fleischwolf> sudokill, gohdan: well, thanks for the support - maybe i jump into the specs and build a converter in python or something. maybe i'm not the only one desperately searching for such a tool
[12:02] <iceroot> JoeR1: #winehq
[12:02] <JoeR1> iceroot - I know but no one is talking in there
[12:02] <orchata> sudokill: how do I join the partitions?
[12:02] <iceroot> JoeR1: but this is not the wine-support-channel
[12:02] <Pici> JoeR1: If you need help installing Wine, we can help, but for running applications under Wine, #winehq knows much better than us.
[12:02] <usr13> orchata: If so, just boot to MS Windows and restore the windows boot loader, (if need be) boot again to verify that it works and then use the win7 partition manager to delete Ubuntu's partitions.  BUT, there really is no need to mess with the boot loader, that is just if you want to remove all traces of Ubuntu.
[12:02] <Pici> JoeR1: Also check their appdb.
[12:03] <newgen> iceroot, i think i found the problem
[12:03] <Dr_Willis> orchestra reinstall the windows mbr. then use windiws to msnage and resize the partitions
[12:03] <sudokill> orchata, youd have to format the ntfs (after backing up) and make a new ext4 and put the data back
[12:03] <iceroot> newgen: what was it?
[12:03] <Dr_Willis> !fixapt | gaurav_natty
[12:03] <sudokill> orchata, how full is the data drive in %
[12:03] <orchata> around 30 GB
[12:03] <sudokill> how big is the drive?
[12:04] <newgen> iceroot, i changed the title of the new kernel. but when rebooting, the title stays the same. is it possible that it is not updated in the mbr ?
[12:04] <orchata> sudokill:  500 GB
[12:04] <sudokill> 30gb used?
[12:04] <usr13> orchata: A step further will be to reclaim the Hard Drive space formerly used by Ubuntu's partitions by using a partition manager to expand the size of the MS Windows partitions.
[12:04] <JoeR1> iceroot, I know that is why I asked if it would be ok
[12:04] <iceroot> newgen: if i am correct you have to run update-grub on grub2 so that your chances take effect
[12:04] <orchata> usr13:  OK. THanks
[12:04] <iceroot> newgen: but never used grub2 really
[12:05] <JoeR1> Pici - I did check the appdb but it had not the answer I sought
[12:05] <gaurav_natty> Dr_Willis, How i fixapt
[12:05] <sudokill> orchata, I had a 1TB ntfs drive that i wanted to convert to ext4, and i didnt have anything big enough tio back it up with. I had to split the drive into 2 500GB partitions, format one as ext4, copy the ntfs data over to ext4, format the ntfs artition as unallocated and extend the ext4 to 1tb pita i know
[12:05] <epifanio> any clue about this error tring to reinstall grub on a usb pen where i installed ubuntu ?  the error is   :  /usr/sbin/grub-probe        error: cannot stat 'aufs'
[12:05] <usr13> orchata: If you think you have plans to re-install Ubuntu later on and do not need the extra space, you can skip the last step and just have some free space at the end of your Hard Drive.  Leave it that way until your needs change.
[12:05] <sgronblo> jribas: but is ubuntu's ruby incorrectly configured if it puts the libdir inside /usr/local?
[12:05] <iceroot> newgen: is it also a raid? without a synced /boot?
[12:06] <Fudge> hi somehow on maverick ive removed my menu, whats the app to re-install
[12:06] <pyghassen> hi anyone knows about openerp or is there any irc channel
[12:06] <DaHaiz> hey guys. everytime i use apt-get i get the following output at the beginning: http://paste.ubuntu.com/641838/ . anyone knows how to repair that issue? i've already googled a lot yet but nothing did work..
[12:06] <sudokill> Fudge, right click and add app menu
[12:06] <SambaEXT> how do you define primary and secondary dns when editing /etc/network/interfaces?
[12:06] <iceroot> !alis | pyghassen
[12:06] <orchata> usr13:  But I need that space on my win.  And win cannot work with ext4
[12:06] <newgen> iceroot, no, single hd. dualboot. osx and ubuntu running from an "efi" loader
[12:07] <iceroot> newgen: until now i thought you are a good person but then i saw osx :)
[12:07] <usr13> orchata: Then use the partition manager to expand the windows partition to cover that space.  (You will need to delete those partitions first.)
[12:07] <newgen> i do not use it at all... i bought the mac book to run ubuntu on it. and the first install was flawwless
[12:07] <orchata> usr13:  Is ther a built in tool for that in win 7?
[12:08] <sudokill> orchata, right click my comp manage disk management
[12:08] <usr13> orchata: Yes, I'm pretty sure there is.
[12:08] <sudokill> its a bit likegparted
[12:08] <newgen> iceroot, osx is awkward.... i is very restrictive and the packet management is worse than ubuntu
[12:08] <Fudge> sudokill  gnome-panel isnt running and its installed, along with gnome-panel-data
[12:08] <usr13> orchata: It is on all the Win7 machines Ive encountered.
[12:09] <sudokill> fudge i know this is old but shuld work http://www.watchingthenet.com/restore-panels-in-ubuntu-back-to-their-default-settings.html
[12:10] <iceroot> !panels | Fudge
[12:10] <Fudge> ah i reinstalled and logged back in, fixed :D
[12:10] <Fudge> tks
[12:10] <usr13> Fudge: You can also just go back to defaults by deleting .gnome
[12:10] <usr13> Ok, never mind Fudge
[12:11] <orchata> OK. Thanks guys
[12:11] <newgen> iceroot, the grub is the problem. i did a update-grub, but the new title does not show up. neither in the kernel selections, not under the "previous versions"
[12:11] <usr13> orchata: NP
[12:12] <usr13> newgen: You probably have to do grub-install after update-grub  Right?...
[12:12] <newgen> iceroot, and when using the "recovery mode" , i get the error "VFS cannot open root device "mapper/sda4_crypt" or unknown block (0,0)
[12:12] <sudokill> is it not update-grub2?
[12:12] <sudokill> or am i wrong
[12:13] <iceroot> newgen: that sounds more like "luks not in ramdisc"
[12:13] <usr13> !grub2
[12:13] <gohdan> fleischwolf: you can probably get more success by firing off a question to one of the FLOSS gba emu's mailing lists
[12:13] <fleischwolf> gohdan: what's FLOSS ?
[12:14] <gohdan> fleischwolf:  free libre open source software
[12:14] <iceroot> newgen: or if the uuid does not match there is no /dev/mapper/foobar
[12:14] <fleischwolf> gohdan: ok, thanks - i'll give it a try, when i am stuck
[12:14] <Bipul> any  one here who is familiar with Asterisk in ubuntu
[12:15] <newgen> iceroot, thats what i meant with my comment [13:52]
[12:15] <iceroot> newgen: there was a way to get the uuid and see if it is matching grub or fstab
[12:15] <gohdan> Bipul: try #asterisk
[12:15] <newgen> iceroot, more important: i remember ther was a way to remove the uuid and use proper /dev/ devices
[12:16] <iceroot> newgen: there a reasons why uuid is better
[12:16] <newgen> iceroot, yeah, like the two ours i already spent fixing it
[12:17] <iceroot> newgen: :)
[12:17] <newgen> iceroot, really. since i used suse 6.0 , i never had so much problems like with this uuid stuff
[12:17] <usr13> iceroot: Can you go into those reasons a little?  (I'm curious too.)
[12:17] <gohdan> !tell Bipul about pm
[12:17] <Dr_Willis> you can use labels uf you dont like uuid.
[12:17] <DaHaiz> hey guys. everytime i use apt-get i get the following output at the beginning: http://paste.ubuntu.com/641838/ . anyone knows how to repair that issue? i've already googled a lot yet but nothing did work..	
[12:17] <usr13> newgen: Whi is it a problem?
[12:18] <vkj> hi guys i am new to unix n ubuntu . I have to files having same content. I want to modify one of the files. I have diff result of what needs to be modified and command which can take diff as input and change file conents
[12:18] <vkj> *two
[12:18] <newgen> usr13, it just makes thinks complicated. like the new kernel log timestamps... KISS!! keep it simple stupid
[12:18] <usr13> DaHaiz: Did you try apt-get -f install  ?
[12:18] <iceroot> usr13: i have a system with 8G B harddisc for / and two usb-drives for /home/user/movies the two usb-drives are using a raid. when not using uuid there is a chance that one usb-drive will not be sdc but mabye sdd and that will kill my system
[12:19] <iceroot> usr13: so i dont have to be afraif /dev/sdX is changing just because i have a usb-stick inserted too
[12:19] <usr13> iceroot: aaahhh yes, ok.  Thank you.
[12:19] <iceroot> usr13: genral for removable drives uuid is better
[12:19] <iceroot> usr13: if you are mounting then at boot
[12:20] <DaHaiz> usr13: yes i did, but said that there is nothing to install/remove/upgrade and nothing not upgraded
[12:20] <usr13> iceroot: Yes, I see.
[12:20] <newgen> iceroot, when i use grup-install, how are the changes i overwrite my efi bootloader and kill the other os running on the hd?
[12:20] <vkj> re-posting as no replies hi guys i am new to unix n ubuntu . I have to files having same content. I want to modify one of the files. I have diff result of what needs to be modified and is there a command which can take diff as input and change file conents
[12:21] <Pici> vkj: 'patch' is the command you're looking for.
[12:21] <vkj> k i will man patch
[12:21] <vkj> thanks
[12:21] <usr13> iceroot: To find the uuid of a drive, it has to be mounted?  Yes  No ?
[12:21] <Dr_Willis> diff and patch. like peanutbutter and jelly. :)
[12:21] <newgen> vkj, btw. there are other diff. like xdiff or kdiff3
[12:21] <Dr_Willis> usr13: no
[12:22] <Dr_Willis> usr13: use blkid command is one way
[12:22] <iceroot> newgen: maybe backup the mbr first
[12:22] <vkj> i already have diff result but both files are same i have to incorporate the diff result
[12:23] <iceroot> newgen: sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=/path/to/mymbr.img
[12:23] <iceroot> newgen: that should save the part grub-install if overwriting
[12:23] <iceroot> is
[12:23] <Dr_Willis> vkj: patch can take a diff file and apply changes
[12:23] <iceroot> newgen: ah stop!!!
[12:23] <newgen> iceroot, backupping to usb ..
[12:23] <usr13> Dr_Willis: Does blkid require sudo?
[12:23] <newgen> iceroot, yes?
[12:24] <Dr_Willis> usr13: orob.
[12:24] <Dr_Willis> !blkid
[12:24] <Pici> usr13: yes, it does.
[12:24] <usr13> Pici: so just   sudo blkid    ?
[12:24] <iceroot> newgen: sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=/path/to/mymbr.img bs=512 count=1
[12:24] <Pici> usr13: indeed.
[12:24] <iceroot> newgen: you need the first 512byte only
[12:24] <newgen> iceroot, i know.
[12:25] <newgen> iceroot, but thx again
[12:25] <iceroot> newgen: ah ok, just wnated to get sure
[12:25] <usr13> Pici: Dr_Willis iceroot Very good.  Thanks info.
[12:25] <strk> after a recent upgrade (kernel?) I can hear no more sound, how can I debug it ?
[12:25] <SambaEXT> i'm using ubuntu server....why if i type ping www.google.com, i get no answer...but i can do an apt-get install and it downloads?
[12:26] <bazhang> strk, kernel upgrade? on your own, or from ubuntu repos
[12:26] <strk> SambaEXT: does it install from CD ?
[12:26] <strk> bazhang: repos
[12:26] <usr13> Dr_Willis: What is another way?
[12:26] <strk> bazhang: lucid
[12:26] <Pici> SambaEXT: Does google.com resolve?
[12:27] <bazhang> strk, check alsamixer to make sure nothing is muted
[12:27] <Dr_Willis> usr
[12:27] <strk> gah, found
[12:28] <Dr_Willis> usr13:  /dev/disks/by-uuid
[12:28] <strk> bazhang: "Speaker" !
[12:28] <SambaEXT> no, it does not intall from cd....no google.com does not resolve
[12:28] <newgen> iceroot, cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/mapper/sda4_crypt
[12:28] <SambaEXT> :?
[12:28] <strk> I'm pretty sure it didn't make a difference in actual output (speaker)
[12:28] <strk> do names of those controls change from kernel to kernel ? driver to driver ?
[12:29] <newgen> iceroot, it has a problem with the root line of the new kernel
[12:30] <usr13> Dr_Willis: But, looks like you have to guess which is which.  Right?
[12:30] <iceroot> newgen: on grub1 there is a device.map file (or something like that where /dev/sdaX is tranlated to /dev/mapper/foobar) install-grub is reading that device.map but dont ask me about grub2
[12:30] <vingian> hi guys - needed a little help with licid & python 2.7 packages...
[12:30] <vingian> i installed python2.7 from the fkrull/deadsnakes ppa
[12:31] <usr13> Dr_Willis: Never mind.  I see, they are symlinks
[12:31] <vingian> but can't seem to get it to work with the glib2 reactor in twisted.
[12:31] <usr13> ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid
[12:32] <epifanio> any clue about this error : grub-probe: error: cannot stat `aufs'.
[12:34] <bazhang> vingian, 2.6.5 is the lucid python, why would you need 2.7?
[12:34] <newgen> iceroot, grub-mkdevicemap -> creates this file in /boot/grub/device.map
[12:35] <newgen> iceroot, and quess what: my device is missing
[12:35] <skarufue> hello. i need some networking help... i want to setup a bridge which bridges ipv4 and ipv6 traffic to my VMs. my /etc/network/interfaces: http://pastebin.com/sm6QkyWJ. the problem is if i ifconfig i can only see ip4 settings. (ipv4 warks flawlessly)
[12:35] <skarufue> any ideas?
[12:36] <newgen> iceroot, and THATS the place to remove the uuid and replace it with a proper /dev device :)
[12:38] <skarufue> i uploaded the ifconfig output too: http://pastebin.com/WAcSwNzr
[12:38] <Rugnur> hi ppl....i need a hand to find out how to update the bios where i have my ubuntu 11...the motherboard name is Asus P5WDG2-W5 any hint?
[12:39] <bazhang> Rugnur, ##hardware for that
[12:39] <iceroot> newgen: so you should only add your drive to /boot/grub/device.map and run install-grub if i am correct
[12:39] <Rugnur> bazhang: cheers
[12:40] <subh> hello can u tell me wht to do to install plugin in totem
[12:40] <newgen> iceroot, thats what i hoped for. but it's not working
[12:40] <iceroot> newgen: of course its not working. that would be to easy
[12:40] <subh> to run .avi
[12:40] <iceroot> newgen: but the install-grub part is running?
[12:41] <newgen> iceroot, :) no, it's not. that would also be to easy
[12:41] <bazhang> subh, ubuntu-restricted-extras is the package
[12:41] <Sidewinder1> !codecs > subh
[12:41] <subh> k
[12:42] <vingian> bazhang: since thats the version that the application was built with
[12:43] <vingian> bazhang: the application that I am trying to install runs on redhat based servers and we are evaluating ubuntu
[12:44] <subh> can anybody solve my problem of totem player
[12:44] <subh> i want to see .avi file
[12:44] <subh> bt it is requesting for plugin
[12:45] <Sidewinder1> !codecs | subh
[12:45] <crackerjackz> good night all
[12:45] <lafon> suddenly all my updates (through synaptic) state that they cannot be authenticated
[12:45] <bazhang> subh, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[12:46] <subh> thnx
[12:46] <iceroot> bazhang: there should be also ubuntu-restricted-codecs which is not pulling acroread, sun-java6 and so on
[12:46] <arfbtwn> lafon: sudo apt-get update resolved that in my case
[12:47] <bazhang> iceroot, acroread is largely redundant with evince, its at medibuntu
[12:47] <BluesKaj> Hiyas
[12:47] <lafon> arfbtwn: I'll try that
[12:47] <bazhang> vingian, you know that python-twisted is in the repos, right?
[12:48] <kim_> how to start and stop dhcp service in 11.04
[12:48] <kim_> when i type /etc/init.d/dh tab nothing is coming
[12:48] <newgen> kim_, killall -9 dhcpd
[12:48] <cliang> service dhcpd restart
[12:48] <bazhang> newgen, thats not the preferred way of doing it
[12:49] <bazhang> !upstart > kim_
[12:49] <newgen> bazhang, thats the one and only way to make things sure
[12:49] <vingian> bazhang: the python-twisted from the repos is coupled no the 2.6.5 install
[12:50] <newgen> bazhang, there was a time, when all services where proberly startet and stopped in /dev/init.t/myservice start|stop|restart
[12:50] <subh> Fetched 50.5MB in 2min 5s (402kB/s)
[12:50] <subh> Failed to fetch http://32.repository.backtrack-linux.org/pool/main/d/dirac/libdirac-encoder0_1.0.2-2_i386.deb  Size mismatch
[12:50] <vingian> newgen: don't you mean /etc/init.d??
[12:50] <kim_> when i did service dhcpd restart ...it is saying unrecognized services
[12:50] <subh> this is error
[12:50] <arfbtwn> newgen: you mean /etc/init.d/myservice, surely?
[12:51] <skarufue> newgen service does nothing but /etc/init.d $1 $2  i think
[12:51] <iceroot> subh: backtrack is not supported here
[12:51] <newgen> yes, i meant /etc/init.d/....
[12:51] <kim_> i am not able to find dhcp server in 11.04
[12:51] <subh> then wht should i do
[12:51] <newgen> but init.t looks much cooler
[12:51] <iceroot> !backtrack | subh
[12:51] <bazhang> subh, #backtrack-linux not here
[12:51] <arfbtwn> kim_: That's because ubuntu doesn't use the client daemon by default
[12:52] <kim_> then tell me how to start and stop dhcp in 11,04
[12:52] <vingian> so thats it then? no clean way to get python 2.7 goodness on Ubuntu 10.04?
[12:52] <arfbtwn> kim_: so killall dhclient would be the command you need. I think the ifup/down scripts will do this for you
[12:53] <skarufue> meh just install the dam dhcpd
[12:53] <kim_> killall dhclient ....after that
[12:53] <skarufue> kim_: just install dhcpd aptitude search dhcp pick one
[12:53] <lafon> !paste
[12:53] <bazhang> kim_, sudo ifdown wlan0 for example
[12:54] <arfbtwn> skarufue: the client daemon will make any difference compared to the client script, AFAIK
[12:54] <bazhang> skarufue, thats hardly necessary, and aptitude is not installed
[12:54] <Traintop> is there an easy way to convert from "seconds since 01.01.1970" to utc on command-line e.g. shell-script?
[12:54] <skarufue> arfbtwn: yes but then he can do it the way hes used to
[12:55] <arfbtwn> skarufue: but that won't solve his problem ;)
[12:55] <skarufue> Traintop: man date
[12:55] <kim_> have u changed everything in new version
[12:55] <Castatroy> hello folks
[12:55] <kim_> like in earlear one it was happening with /etc/init.d/dhcpd restart
[12:55] <arfbtwn> kim_: Assuming dhclient is now dead, you should be able to dhclient -v <ifname>
[12:55] <Castatroy> please how do i get a service to run or advertise on both interfaces
[12:56] <skarufue> kim_:  what do you want to achive anyway? do you want to get a new address from dhcp server?
[12:56] <Hyperbyte> bazhang, arfbtwn, kim_ is talking about a DHCP server, not client
[12:56] <remoteCTRL> in earlier times you could switch 3d desktop effex on and off in system/preferences/appearance, how do i do that nowadays?
[12:56] <bourke> hi, can anyone tell me how to dpkg -i and skip the y/n prompt?
[12:56] <newgen> bourke, use "yes | dpkg -i ..."
[12:56] <bourke> newgen: great, thanks :)
[12:56] <Traintop> skarufue: tried that before, "date --date="1310454000000000" +%s" exits with "date: ungültiges Datum "13....00""
[12:56] <staccers> hmm darn
[12:56] <Castatroy> please how do i get a service to run or advertise on both interfaces
[12:57] <tastle73> hi everybody.  in 11.04 my gnome-terminal always opens 80x23 no matter how I try to fix it
[12:57] <kim_> Hyperbyte : thanks....yes exactly tell me ,,i am not able to start dhcp in 11.04
[12:57] <Castatroy> the service is currently running on only loopback adapter
[12:57] <Hyperbyte> kim_:  you need to stop asking, and read what people answer.  Someone just gave you an answer in #ltsp.  Have you tried that yet?
[12:58] <remoteCTRL> Castatroy: what service?
[12:58] <Castatroy> well its a particular ip cam server application i installed
[12:58] <newgen> does someone know how to fix a broken grub with a luks-crypt setup? it complains abount the device.map
[12:59] <Castatroy> it seems to be running on 8080 but only on loopback interface
[12:59] <remoteCTRL> Castatroy: why would you have that one announce on localhost?
[12:59] <kim_> Hyperbyte : I tried , but not working
[12:59] <Castatroy> remoteCTRL: its not like i just did it
[12:59] <Castatroy> i want it to advertise on all interfaces
[13:00] <remoteCTRL> Castatroy: erm... you want to stram the output of a webcam to some sort of web interface?
[13:00] <Sidewinder1> tastle73, Go into "terminal properties" and type something like: gnome-terminal --geometry=150x60
[13:00] <newgen> Castatroy, workaround would be ro redirect the port with iptables , depending on the source interface
[13:00] <Hyperbyte> kim_: so then you go to the person who was helping you earlier, tell them exactly what error message you get and why you consider it to not be 'working'.
[13:00] <Castatroy> netstat -ntlp show the service to be running only on loopback interface
[13:00] <remoteCTRL> Castatroy: i suppose the application thaqt you are using has a config file?
[13:01] <Castatroy> what i want is to let it run on all interfaces or atleast eth0
[13:01] <tastle73> I know I can do that.  It used to open 80x24 by default
[13:02] <kim_> skarufue: dhcp service is not working
[13:02] <kim_> skarufue  : how to start and restart dhcp server on 11.04
[13:02] <acidflash> hello everyone, I have a bunch of HD's which i moved from 1 pc to another, who contained an LVM of about 5 tb
[13:02] <acidflash> when doing lvm it says that the disks are empty  but they were 100% full
[13:03] <acidflash> there is no longer a symlink in my /dev/ directory in order to mount it
[13:03] <newgen> kim_, have you tried starting dhcpd directly, to get possible error messaged
[13:03] <skarufue> kim_: what do you want to restart it for? ubuntu doesnt use the daemon for the clientside anymore. so it doesnt need to be running
[13:03] <acidflash> how can i get the symlink back + mount the lvm and not lose my data
[13:03] <layus> #ltsp
[13:03] <remoteCTRL> Castatroy: what you obviously do not want is to answer my questions nor to specify what exaclty you are doing, gonna be hard to help you then...
[13:03] <a7i3n> I have an issue with audio CDs not being uniformly mounted. Some are and some aren't. Can't figure out why.
[13:03] <Hyperbyte> skarufue:  kim_ is talking about DHCP -SERVER-, not client.  But kim_ has someone helping them in #ltsp and needs to pay attention to that, rather than flood two channels with the same question...
[13:04] <acidflash> note: we reduced 2 hdd's from teh lvm because they wouldnt work anymore, so i passed a --removemissing command and removed the pv's but havent shrunk the lvm yet
[13:08] <Castatroy> remoteCTRL: its actually an axis ip cam application
[13:11] <Castatroy> remoteCTRL: u basically install a server module for the ip cameras to connect to it
[13:12] <Castatroy> remoteCTRL:  application has been installed alright but the service is only running on the loopback interface
[13:12] <remoteCTRL> Castatroy: does the application have a name?
[13:12] <Castatroy> remoteCTRL:  so i want the service (8080) to advertise on both loopback and eth0
[13:13] <Castatroy> remoteCTRL: axissts
[13:13] <remoteCTRL> Castatroy: how do you install axissts, does it have a packet oder did you compile it?
[13:13] <brainwave92> am i automatically masked over irc?
[13:14] <Castatroy> remoteCTRL: compile it
[13:14] <brainwave92> i mean, there is a message 'brainwave92 sets mode +i' does it mean my ip is hidden from others accessing the irc?
[13:15] <Pici> brainwave92: no.  If you want more info, ask in #freenode
[13:16] <poil> Hey, I just installed ubuntu 10.04 (lts) but I dont seem to be automatically connected t my house's wifi, is there a place where i can browse and choose wifi connections ?
[13:16] <introuble> can anyone tell me how to remove or replace the footer "powered by or sponsered by"    i cant find that in the source code. iam new in php.   help.com/demo ?
[13:17] <remoteCTRL> Castatroy: so the app does not have any config file?
[13:17] <pyghassen> hi I got a serious issue removing an package
[13:17] <Pici> introuble: The source code of what?
[13:17] <brainwave92> pyghassen, go ahead...
[13:17] <pyghassen> what does this means ?
[13:17] <pyghassen> dpkg -l | grep openerp
[13:17] <pyghassen> rH  openerp-server                       6.0.2-1
[13:17] <brainwave92> Pici, yes sorry....i did want to add 'where can i find help'
[13:17] <arfbtwn> poil: In the top right of your screen there should be a slice of pie. Click it.
[13:17] <poil> nothing interesting there
[13:18] <brainwave92> poil, reminds me of siftheads!
[13:18] <Castatroy> yes it does have
[13:18] <poil> well, there is the VPN network connections stuff, but i don't get what tyo do there
[13:18] <arfbtwn> poil: does it have wireless network listed as a section?
[13:18] <brainwave92> pyghassen, dpkg -l lists all the package, and grep finds for lines containing the given string
[13:18] <pyghassen> what is the rH falg
[13:19] <Pici> introuble: This channel is for support of Ubuntu only. If you're looking for detailed help regarding a specific application that we ship, then it might be better to see if they have their own channel here.
[13:19] <poil> arfbtwn I'm not sure what you're asking but i think i'll answer no
[13:19] <wAAX-> Hello, does anyone have an idea how to make internet-pass-through work, The phone is a HTC desire S and the OS is ubuntu 11.04. can anyone guide me?
[13:19] <pyghassen> the problem is in last line brainwave92
[13:20] <pyghassen> all other packages got ii but this one got rH when running dpkg -l!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[13:20] <remoteCTRL> Castatroy: well usually that is the place where to look for the variable that declares where to put the output
[13:20] <Pici> pyghassen: the top few lines of the dpkg -l output tell you what that means.  In this case: Remove, Half-inst
[13:20] <arfbtwn> poil: sounds like your wireless is not being recognised. What's your wifi card?
[13:21] <poil> No idea, i just bought this netbook (asus)
[13:21] <remoteCTRL> in earlier times you could switch 3d desktop effex on and off in system/preferences/appearance, how do i do that nowadays?
[13:21] <pyghassen> Pici: I can't remove it even I type  dpkg -r openerp-server
[13:22] <poil> earlier i had ubuntu 11.04 but had troubles with lxde so I switched to ubuntu lts, and in the 11.04 i had no problem with Wifi on Gnome
[13:22] <remoteCTRL> pyghassen: have a try with apt-get install -f
[13:22] <poil> i'm just brand new with ubuntu, by the way.
[13:23] <pyghassen> still got
[13:23] <pyghassen> Errors were encountered while processing:

[13:26] <ichbinder> hello. I have a question about permissions. I mount a device using fstab the following way: /dev/mapper/isw_cagagbhdac_Raid5p2           /mnt/data       ntfs-3g    uid=mm,gid=users,fmask=137,dmask=027    0       2
[13:26] <bullgard4> !pateience | impiza
[13:26] <bullgard4> !patience | impiza
[13:27] <ichbinder> it works, and I can create files and stuff as user. But I can't do something like "chmod +x binary.file"
[13:27] <ichbinder> why and is there a way I am allowed to do that?
[13:27] <DarsVaeda> hi, how do i deactivate this snap to edges make window fullsize thing?
[13:27] <impiza> k sorry
[13:28] <VonLipwig> I broke Ubuntu! When I turn it on. I get BusyBox v1.15.3 ... built-in shell (ash). Then a command box that starts with (initramfs). How do I get the gui back?
[13:28] <brainwave92> DarsVaeda, which window manager are you running? Is it compiz or metacity?
[13:28] <brainwave92> I do it in compiz settings.
[13:28] <Sidewinder1> ichbinder, I don't think you can change permissions from ubuntu on an NTFS partition.
[13:28] <DarsVaeda> uhm...
[13:28] <DarsVaeda> its standard unity whatever it is
[13:28] <impiza> i am using mint 11 based on ubuntu 11.04
[13:28] <brainwave92> Sidewinder1, why not? i believe a pluging or something exists?
[13:29] <brainwave92> impiza, good
[13:29] <bullgard4> VonLipwig: Can you open a virtual terminal yet?
[13:29] <ichbinder> Sidewinder1: hm, why not? NTFS knows nothing about unix-permissions. That's why I can use these settings like fmask=137 and dmask=027 ...at least that's what I know... :-/
[13:29] <impiza> default ccsm is working
[13:29] <DarsVaeda> ahh no wait I'm in gnome, but standard though
[13:30] <impiza> but it is very hard to use
[13:30] <VonLipwig> bullgard4: I am a bit of a noob. Whats a virtual terminal?
[13:30] <remoteCTRL> pyghassen: dpkg --configure -a
[13:31] <brainwave92> VonLipwig, its just a terminal emulator
[13:31] <iam> !liveusb
[13:31] <brainwave92> it mimics the command line interface, and commands work just as they should in a shell....
[13:31] <brainwave92> VonLipwig, all the terminals you see on the screen in a gui are virtual terminals
[13:32] <bullgard4> VonLipwig: A virtual terminal is a program where you can enter and read letters only and no graphics (with minor exceptions). --  Can you press Ctrl+Alt+F1? How does your computer respond?
[13:32] <ichbinder> also: I can't even do "sudo chmod +x binary.file". After doing that, it's still without executable permission... I guess these masks are pretty strict. Is there some way to fix this?
[13:32] <brainwave92> bullgard4, how to get back from that?
[13:32] <bazhang> !mintsupport | impiza
[13:32] <pyghassen> still
[13:32] <pyghassen> dpkg -l | grep openerp-
[13:32] <pyghassen> rH  openerp-server                       6.0.2-1
[13:32] <brainwave92> impiza, whats the exact problem?
[13:32] <pyghassen> I hate it, I have no solution
[13:32] <VonLipwig> Ctrl+Alt+F1 doesn't do anything. I can type commands, thats about it
[13:33] <bazhang> brainwave92, impiza mint is not supported here
[13:33] <gohdan> impiza: l;inux mint is not supported here. try their irc channel
[13:33] <remoteCTRL> pyghassen: i am afraid i am also out of ideas...
[13:33] <impiza> please wait i am uploading screenshot
[13:33] <bullgard4> VonLipwig: You can type commands. Good. And how does the computer react on them?
[13:33] <bazhang> impiza, no, not here.
[13:34] <ichbinder> hm, am I in the wrong channel with my permissions problem? Can anybody point me to a direction? :-/
[13:34] <pyghassen> whenever I got this error I wind up reinstalling ubuntu
[13:34] <bazhang> impiza, we've told you MINT is not supported here
[13:34] <VonLipwig> Typing help works
[13:34] <gohdan> bazhang: sorry for stepping on your toes there. i must be lagging hard
[13:34] <VonLipwig> Typing exit
[13:34] <VonLipwig> Typing exit show a bunch of codes then says 'panic occurred, switching back to text console'
[13:34] <impiza> bazhang i know but mint 11 is based on ubuntu i think you guys can help me
[13:34] <tsimpson> impiza: no, mint is not supported here, they have their own support channel
[13:34] <bazhang> impiza, no. please stop asking.
[13:35] <squircle> y
[13:36] <impiza> when i try to install it shows like this     http://imgur.com/E91Ue
[13:36] <bullgard4> VonLipwig: What happens if you command: "sudo service gdm start"?
[13:36] <Pici> bullgard4: VonLipwig is in busybox
[13:36] <bullgard4> Pici: Ah. Thank you.
[13:37] <xxiao> using 10.04, whenever i close my browser, i can not click/type into the terminal, had to click somewhere else then i'm able to type in the terminal
[13:37] <xxiao> this happened since i started to use 10.04...anyone seen this?
[13:37] <brainwave92> xxiao, obviously! u need to select the terminal before typing init no?
[13:38] <VonLipwig> Typing that command returns '/bin/sh: sudo: not found'
[13:38] <xxiao> yes i click it and select it, but can not type
[13:38] <xxiao> it's not about click, i can never type anything until i click somewher else, then click the terminal again
[13:38] <VonLipwig> Does the installation disk have some sort of auto repair feature?
[13:38] <xxiao> it's getting more and more inconvenient
[13:39] <ichbinder> can anybody state if using fmask in fstab makes it impossible to change permissions using chmod?
[13:40] <ichbinder> hm, found it, I guess: "ntfs/vfat = permissions are set at the time of mounting the partition with umask, dmask, and fmask and can not be changed with commands such as chown or chmod." on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab
[13:41] <ichbinder> so, Sidewinder1: you are correct, to some degree. ;) At least it's not changeable, once it has been mounted.
[13:41] <brainwave92> ikonia, you read my post earlier today about sony handycam support on linux? NONE of them are supported. Did fairies make some models work?
[13:41] <xxiao> it happened again, darn IT
[13:41] <Sidewinder1> ichbinder, I thought so, but wasn't absolutely certain.
[13:42] <ikonia> brainwave92: stop trying to be smart and re-read the advice you where given
[13:42] <impiza1> ikonia may i pm you
[13:42] <ikonia> impiza1: sure
[13:45] <brainwave92> ikonia, i am not usually ill mannered, but it was the smart way you talked yesterday. When you didnt really give any proper advice other that 'check if you device is supported' , and i got from sony what i expected, 'we dont support'. But for the other advice of seeing how it works on windows, and then doing it on linux , was a good one, and thanks for that.
[13:45] <ikonia> brainwave92: you didn't listen to what was said
[13:45] <ikonia> brainwave92: 1.) check if the device is supported under linux - doesn't mean you have to go to Sony - it means see if the Linux kernel supports that device and if so what version
[13:45] <ichbinder> Sidewinder1: yeah, like I said:to some degree. :) You can mount it anyway you want, but you can't change the standard permissions, once it's mounted. Seems like you can use some fancy new features, though: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1446788
[13:46] <ikonia> brainwave92: 2.) I told you get support / help advice for setting your camera under Windows from Sony - as that way you would know it's working and not a problem with your PC as Windows is a supported OS to Sony
[13:46] <ikonia> brainwave92: so do that please
[13:46] <remoteCTRL> ikonia: brainwave92: if i may assist gentlemen: http://linuxhcl.com/ i believe that is where ikonia meant you should chekc whether it is supported...
[13:47] <ikonia> remoteCTRL: I didn't give the exact URL, so thank you, but yes that is exactly what I was suggesting
[13:47] <remoteCTRL> ikonia: np:)
[13:47] <brainwave92> remoteCTRL, ikonia thanks......:)
[13:47] <remoteCTRL> brainwave92: np:)
[13:47] <brainwave92> sorry i was irritated, but the frustration mounted up at spending lots of time trying different things......sorry again.
[13:49] <remoteCTRL> ikonia: ozior is now known as pedofil pls do something...
[13:49] <ikonia> remoteCTRL: he's gone
[13:49] <remoteCTRL> thanks
[13:49] <ozior> remoteCTRL ;)
[13:49] <remoteCTRL> (03:48:48 PM) Guest48654 is now known as ozior ikonia: erm nope he istn
[13:50] <remoteCTRL> ozior: i do not find that funny at all, either you mean it or you got the worst taste ever in both cases pls go away!
[13:51] <soulis77-SE> Hi all. I have a fresh Ubuntu 10.04 installation and a installed software named "ftp" is this a client or a server?
[13:51] <Pici> soulis77-SE: client.
[13:51] <arfbtwn> soulis77-SE: client
[13:51] <Sidewinder1> soulis77-SE, I believe ftp is a client.
[13:51] <ozior> remote don't be faggot
[13:52] <Sidewinder1> Bye...
[13:53] <ozior> w00t
[13:54] <soulis77-SE> thanks all for the quick reply. Vsftpd is good ftpserver or is there a better one?  No fighting now.. ;)  Only 2 users will be logged in no anony... users
[13:54] <nerdy_kid> anyone here have a working nvidia optimus?
[13:55] <poil> I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, and i'm asking if i want to install a bunch of 137 security updates (140MB total) - do I need that even though it's already a LTS ?
[13:56] <kh> yes
[13:56] <bullgard4> yes
[13:56] <poil> it includes like "firefox" which there already is, etc
[13:56] <poil> do i just accept the whole stuff :p ?
[13:57] <bullgard4> poil: Yes.
[13:57] <poil> (got no idea what kind of things are needed there)
[13:57] <Pici> poil: There isn't much point in installing an LTS if you aren't going to be installing security updates.
[13:57] <poil> alright thanks
[13:57] <ichbinder> thanks for the help and bye!
[13:57] <Pici> poil: If you're interested in reading what the changes the updates are installing, you can install apt-listchanges, which will show you the changes before installation.
[13:58] <brainwave92> How can i access detailed logs of each update? Are they stored anywhere on the system?
[13:58] <Pici> brainwave92: /var/log/dpkg.log
[13:59] <brainwave92> oops
[13:59] <brainwave92> My computer shows 'bootlog full' during startup, even before OS loads. What is that actually? BIOS stuff?
[14:00] <Mamut> what was the name of user interface of pervious ubuntu network edition ?
[14:00] <ikonia> gnome-network-manager ?
[14:00] <Mamut> nope
[14:00] <Mamut> now it is replaced by unity
[14:01] <Mamut> ow
[14:01] <Pici> Mamut: GNOME 2
[14:01] <Mamut> netbook edition
[14:01] <Mamut> not netwrok ;p
[14:02] <Pici> Mamut: Oh. It used unity as well.

[14:02] <livingdaylight> Avé
[14:02] <livingdaylight> Greetings Comrades...
[14:02] <introuble> can anyone tell me how to remove or replace the footer "powered by or sponsered by"    i cant find that in the source code. where can it be?.   hesk.com/demo ?
[14:02] <livingdaylight> Can someone tell me how I can open two instances of Nautilus. I'm using 11.04 with unity bar
[14:02] <Pici> introuble: What does this have to do with Ubuntu?
[14:02] <brainwave92> introuble, which is that?
[14:03] <brainwave92> Pici, he wants to program on ubuntu isnt it?
[14:03] <brainwave92> but where is that coming?????
[14:03] <Research> it will be in a encrypted file - php template? @ introuble
[14:03] <Adam433> I'm using ubuntu as a webhost and am getting this error all of the sudden, /etc/rc2.d/w19mysql: The partition with /var/lib/mysql is too full!  Any ideas?
[14:03] <livingdaylight> when I have Nautilus already open I can not simply click on Nautilus icon to open another isntance of said app, which I want to in order to easily transfer files from one folder to another
[14:04] <Research> I should say encrypted php script
[14:04] <xangua> livingdaylight: or you can just open a new tab
[14:05] <Pici> introuble: You need to reply to our questions if you want to get help.  You've also been advised to ask in ##php, which as I saw, you haven't done./
[14:05] <introuble> Research are you sure it will be encrypted?
[14:05] <livingdaylight> xangua, i just discovered middle click!
[14:05] <extraclassic> livingdaylight: press F3 in nautilus to split the window
[14:05] <livingdaylight> extraclassic, awesome solution
[14:06] <introuble> Research how can i find that file and link to it?
[14:06] <Research> almost always, if you have searched the code throughly
[14:06] <nerdy_kid> anyone here have a working nvidia optimus?
[14:07] <introuble> Research well. i didnt find it. can you see please. hesk.com
[14:07] <Adam433> I'm using ubuntu as a webhost and am getting this error all of the sudden, /etc/rc2.d/w19mysql: The partition with /var/lib/mysql is too full!  Any ideas?
[14:07] <Mandrew> is there anyway on ubuntu to make a usb-stick with more then one live distro on it?

[14:10] <jtiner> hey guys...i just did an accidental chown root:www-data to everything in and under my my /var/ (-Rfv) - i worry that the change will adversely effect other areas of my system - i'm kind of new - can someone light my path a bit and tell me what i should do?

[14:11] <Savannah> Hello!
[14:12] <HackNewton> hi all
[14:12] <Savannah> May I ask for a little advice?
[14:12] <Research> let you know if I find it
[14:12] <sudipta> can anyone share some screenshots of his gnome shell desktop
[14:12] <Pici> Savannah: Don't ask to ask, just ask.
[14:12] <Savannah> Yeesh, okay
[14:13] <HackNewton> Savannah, ask
[14:13] <rumpe1> jtiner, sounds bad... not everything under /var is owned by root. Best case scenario: you get some security holes. Worst case: some things wont work anymore. Maybe you need to reinstall.
[14:13] <jtiner> rumpe1: i was afraid of that - i really don't feel like doing a reinstall and losing all of my progress on the box
[14:14] <dragon1967> need help with conky
[14:14] <Savannah> Want to downgrade to Meerkat, but I don't own an external hard drive to move my stuff to. Would installing it on a partition, moving the old crap, and then deleting the old part be too messy?
[14:14] <jtiner> rumpe1: think I should just do a chown -Rfv root:root /var?
[14:14] <Semih> Savannah: Well not really
[14:14] <Savannah> Is it a bad idea is what I'm asking.
[14:14] <shashi869> #archlinux
[14:14] <Savannah> No? I won't create any problems for myself?
[14:14] <rumpe1> jtiner, no... in my var some files has different owner... i doubt, that this would do the trick.
[14:15] <jiltdil> i installed warsow game but when start this it is saying analog out of range what does it means ?
[14:15] <HackNewton> Savannah, its stright proccess i dont think it will be any messy
[14:15] <Savannah> I'm not incredibly clever or experienced.
[14:15] <HackNewton> Savannah, you need not to do that
[14:15] <Savannah> @HackNewton: Thanks!
[14:15] <arfbtwn> jtiner: something like this might help -> sudo dpkg -S '/var/'
[14:15] <Savannah> That's all I needed to know. I appreciate it.
[14:15] <ChrisBuchholz> Is it possible to map one keyboard-key to trigger a key-combination? (specifically, i want my caps-lock key to act as super+space)
[14:16] <dragon1967> anybody help me
[14:16] <rumpe1> jtiner, i guess a backup/reinstall would be easiest way to proper fix this.
[14:16] <osmosis_paul> Hi, somebody know about GPL?????
[14:16] <HackNewton> Savannah, you are most welcome
[14:16] <jtiner> arag0rn: what will that do?
[14:16] <splnet_work> Has anyone setup the  Indicator Workspaces applet on 11.04? ( described here: http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/quickly-switch-workspaces-in-ubuntu-unity-with-indicator-workspaces/ )
[14:16] <HackNewton> osmosis_paul, yes almost everyone here know GPL
[14:16] <osmosis_paul> we are using Wurfl that it is under GPL License and we dont know exactly how works
[14:16] <dragon1967> where is location of folder with conky
[14:17] <osmosis_paul> we did not modify the libraries of wurfl only using in our webservice
[14:17] <arfbtwn> jtiner: I believe that command will list all the packages with files owned in /var/
[14:17] <jtiner> rumpe1: yes, I can nuke the box and start all over - but i'd prefer to learn how to fix the problem in the event that it occurs in the future - nuking the box and reinstalling isn't always the best idea - especially if you are trying to learn for a production environment where that won't always be an option
[14:17] <Savannah> I would hover around to help others as much as I could, but I get the feeling I'm a little underexperienced. Also, I'm in class. So bye y'all!
[14:17] <osmosis_paul> but the GPL specify that only if you modify a software under the GPL license you have to share the source right?
[14:17] <HackNewton> osmosis_paul, i did not get your point with GPL
[14:17] <osmosis_paul> but not if only i'm using the service
[14:17] <splnet_work> how do you add applets to unity?
[14:17] <llutz> osmosis_paul: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html
[14:18] <jtiner> arfbtwn: what will that do to it? sudo dpkg -S '/var/'???
[14:18] <rumpe1> jtiner, well .. thats the precious thing you just learned: be careful with recursive commands
[14:18] <jtiner> rumpe1: hahahahaha :} i know!
[14:18] <rumpe1> jtiner, and you learned how valuable complete backups are :D
[14:18] <Pici> osmosis_paul: #fsf or #gnu would be better place to ask questions about the GPL itself.
[14:18] <arfbtwn> jtiner: It should give you a list of packages to reinstall, which should fix the perms
[14:18] <jtiner> arfbtwn: gonna try that now - brb
[14:19] <HackNewton> Hay anybody knows will it be chos if i run both KDE and GNOME ?
[14:19] <HackNewton> I did not mean simulteniously
[14:19] <xangua> HackNewton: you can run whatever you want
[14:20] <jtiner> arfbtwn: can i msg you something?
[14:20] <Pici> HackNewton: It will be fine, you'll can pick which desktop environment you want at your login screen.
[14:20] <pythonirc101> how do i find which package has eulervm.sty so that i can just do apt-get install package?
[14:20] <HackNewton> yes but i am concern with will it be messey for me to work with files ?
[14:20] <extraclassic> HackNewton: it's kind of annoying
[14:21] <Pici> pythonirc101: Either install apt-file and search using that, or look on http://packages.ubuntu.com
[14:21] <HackNewton> extraclassic, thanks
[14:21] <Pici> HackNewton, extraclassic: Why would it be messy or annoying at all?
[14:22] <HackNewton> Pici, well i am thinking it will more things to manage as system administrator than just one desktop enviroment
[14:22] <HackNewton> so am concern with that
[14:22] <extraclassic> having different apps that do the same thing is annoying...you'll end up with gnome-terminal & konsole, so things like that
[14:23] <jiltdil> I have my refresh rate 50Hz how to increse it to 60Hz?
[14:23] <pythonirc101> Pici: thanks
[14:23] <HackNewton> extraclassic, thanks i was concern about that NOw its crytal clear
[14:25] <HackNewton> jiltdil, go to your monitor setting in system setting and change setting
i checked but there is only one option 50hz
[14:25] <mhsky> hi
[14:26] <ryan_> join #xubuntu
[14:26] <HackNewton> jiltdil, then it means your monitor does not support 60Hz on that perticular resolution
[14:26] <HackNewton> hi mhsky
so i asked here and my  resolution is 1600*900
[14:26] <HackNewton> jiltdil, are you using any graphics card ?
yes nvidia 1g
[14:27] <HackNewton> jiltdil, have you installed Nvidia drivers ?
yes but it is showing driver currently active but not in use'
[14:28] <HackNewton> jiltdil, you need to start that driver in order to change frequency
[14:28] <HackNewton> jiltdil, i am sure by doing it you can change the frequency to 60Hz
hoe to start

[14:38] <HackNewton> inferno, because they are both diffrent, their principals are diffrent then each other
[14:38] <gdoteof> joining #linux requires an invitation??
[14:38] <Guest61530> (HELP)Hello, can i mount my blackberry Pearl as USB Mass Storage Device
[14:38] <HackNewton> gdoteof, yes
[14:38] <jtiner> gdoteof: elitist no?
[14:38] <Pici> gdoteof: no. #linux forwards to ##linux.
[14:38] <Incarus6> graciela, are you planning to use the alpha or the rtl card?
[14:38] <extraclassic> inferno: just make sure to install windows first and you shouldn't have problems
[14:38] <jiltdil> Incarus6:please tell how to start the driver mannually via xorg.conf
[14:39] <HackNewton> gdoteof, #linux is invite only channel other those are not invited are redirected to ##linux
[14:39] <graciela> Incarus6, yes, I wish use only the alpha/rtl8187 card
[14:39] <gdoteof> ohh.  i was already idling in ##linux
[14:39] <lucas49> how i access doc's?
[14:39] <gdoteof> hence the error
[14:39] <lucas49> example : qt4 doc's?
[14:39] <Incarus6> jiltdil, no, better don't start that driver because it doesnt exist anymore. just wondered about the entry in the log file. pls paste also /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[14:40] <lucas49> i have instaled qt4-doc package
[14:40] <lucas49> how i access it?
[14:40] <Pici> lucas49: They're usually put into /usr/share/doc/
[14:40] <inferno> classic i earlier did this , it was working fone , but as  did update my ubuntu  :( it showed nothing @ the booting  time
[14:40] <inferno> *fine
[14:40] <HackNewton> i had installed flite yesterday but i didnt find it today  ! what is probably cause of this ?
[14:41] <lucas49> Pici: Ok, i'll check
[14:41] <jiltdil> Incarus6:http://pastebin.com/fzbMdxSX
[14:41] <Pici> lucas49: Actually, for qt4-doc, it looks like it gets stuck in /usr/share/qt4/doc/

[14:41] <seanmc98> hello. have booted ubuntu from a live cd and how do i go about installing flashplayer?
[14:42] <d3m0nK> hey guys
[14:42] <BluesKaj> seanmc98, booted from or booted into ?
[14:42] <d3m0nK> need some help... my dvd keeps on destroying every cd i insert to burn... :S and even if it succeeds it can never eject itself
[14:42] <inferno> extraclassic : i earlier did this , it was working fone , but as i did update my ubuntu :( it showed nothing @ the booting time
[14:42] <Incarus6> graciela, can you also paste "lsmod | grep ath" for a better overview
[14:42] <HackNewton> seanmc98, you cant install anything while using live cd
[14:42] <seanmc98> well i poped in the cd and clicked try
[14:43] <seanmc98> try it*
[14:43] <jiltdil> Incarus6:did u get that?
[14:43] <graciela> sure Incarus6 :)
[14:43] <HackNewton> seanmc98, you need to install it somewhere to install any software into ubuntu
[14:43] <HackNewton> seanmc98, livecd is only for testing purpose
[14:43] <BluesKaj> seanmc98, flash should work tho
[14:43] <seanmc98> well can someone go about showing me how to partion a hard drive?
[14:44] <seanmc98> well all i need s flash for now then
[14:44] <Incarus6> jiltdil, please be patient - and paste "lspci -v | perl -ne '/VGA/../^$/ and /VGA|Kern/ and print' "
[14:44] <graciela> here it is Incarus6 : http://pastebin.com/8xxj1u4v
[14:44] <drake01> seanmc98 : use gparted. Its intuitive
[14:44] <rkhshm> I recently installed 11.04 and connected my 1TB external HDD .. but its not recognizing at ll
[14:45] <rkhshm> its an Iomega HDD
[14:45] <rkhshm> any ideas
[14:45] <lucas49> Pici: thanks guy, i could
[14:45] <rkhshm> dmesg does not throw up anything either
[14:45] <BluesKaj> drake01, maybe for some, but definitely ot all
[14:45] <BluesKaj> not
[14:45] <HackNewton> rkhshm, first thing to consider is wheather your BIOS supports boothing with 1TB EX-HDD
[14:46] <jiltdil> Incarus6:http://pastebin.com/QsT4g1AL
[14:46] <seanmc98> qin: u in?
[14:46] <Incarus6> graciela, I think your network card is loading several drivers at the same time, which is causing that issue. It's a common issue.
[14:46] <HackNewton> rkhshm, try to update your BIOS first
[14:46] <rkhshm> HackNewton: its not a boot HDD.. just a back up disk that connects through USB
[14:46] <graciela> mmm
[14:46] <rkhshm> HackNewton: I need to transfer data back to working mahcine.
[14:46] <rkhshm> HackNewton: thats all
[14:46] <graciela> well, that leads me to the first question. how could I remove the drivers ?
[14:47] <HackNewton> rkhshm, hmm ok are you on Ubuntu now ?
[14:47] <rkhshm> HackNewton: yes
[14:47] <HackNewton> rkhshm, have you tried to mount hd manually ?
[14:49] <rkhshm> i cannot find its credentials at all to mount manually
[14:49] <rkhshm> HackNewton: how to get that
[14:49] <mhsky> you see the logs when plug the Usb External drive?
[14:50] <pratz> hey guys
[14:50] <rkhshm> mhsky: i looked at only the dmesg
[14:50] <Incarus6> graciela, you can unload them with modprobe -r and blacklist them, after that worked. I don't know much about those ath/ath5k drivers but I think mac80211  is the wrong module. but try both
[14:50] <rkhshm> I'm sorry i'm new to ubuntu.. but have used Opensolaris for a very long time
[14:50] <mhsky> try to see the logs when you connect the driver and post the messages here
[14:50] <graciela> great, thank you very much for the tip Incarus6
[14:50] <graciela> :D
[14:51] <seanmc98> where do i find the plugin manager for firefox when i am trying to install flashplayer?
[14:51] <pratz> hey guys, please help me with this, i just updated my system (10.04) , round about 500 packages, but i am getting this error and can not install any package with apt-get http://paste.ubuntu.com/641934/
[14:51] <seanmc98> i have the tar.gz
[14:51] <pratz> kindly help solve this problem
[14:51] <Incarus6> graciela, you're welcome
[14:51] <jiltdil> Incarus6::(
[14:52] <xangua> seanmc98: apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[14:52] <pratz> i also tried wiht -f option, but that did not helped
[14:52] <Incarus6> jiltdil, have you tried to change the frequency via the nvidia configuration gui?
[14:52] <Incarus6> "nvidia-settings"
[14:53] <pratz> should i remove the packages from the archieves directory ??
[14:53] <pratz> hey guys any one please http://paste.ubuntu.com/641934/
[14:53] <pratz> ??
[14:53] <rkhshm> mhsky: http://pastie.org/2197042
[14:53] <rkhshm> thats the only log i have
[14:53] <Incarus6> pratz, try "sudo apt-get -f install" "sudo apt-get dpkg --configure -a"
[14:54] <jiltdil> Incarus6:under which option i find to change it i didn't find it
[14:54] <pratz> Incarus6, -f does not fix the problem, i tried
[14:55] <BluesKaj> pratz, sudo dpg --configur -a
[14:55] <BluesKaj> oops configure
[14:55] <seanmc98> xangua: i have never ran linux before how do i apt-get install flashplayer?
[14:55] <xangua> seanmc98: on a terminal, or simply go to the Software Centre and install flash from there
[14:55] <jiltdil> Incarus6:please see this here it is showing 60hz http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/715/screenshot3jd.png/
[14:55] <arfbtwn> seanmc98: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[14:55] <cdavis> anyone ave a google+ invite to spare?
[14:56] <Incarus6> jiltdil, so whats the problem?
[14:56] <bfri> does anyone know a good equivalent to hotspot shield ?
[14:57] <Incarus6> pratz, and the second command?
[14:57] <jiltdil> Incarus6:problem is driver is activated but currently not in use
[14:57] <rrva> how do I manually force xorg to not use udev input devices but rather bypass that layer on ubuntu?
[14:57] <capri> is it possbile to use samba share with windows clients and manage all permissons with the windows explorer (user management etc?)
[14:57] <pratz> Incarus6, it say E: Command line option --configure is not understood
[14:57] <Incarus6> jiltdil, it is in use, according to your pasts before
[14:58] <pratz> Incarus6, is this correct  sudo apt-get dpkg --configure -a ??
[14:58] <Incarus6> pratz, "sudo dpkg --configure -a" works for me, check spelling
[14:58] <pratz> Incarus6, it not excepting the --configure parameter
[14:58] <Pici> !away> HackNewton_away
[14:58] <jiltdil> Incarus6:but i showed you screenshot in which driver is activated but currently not in use
[14:58] <extraclassic> capri: samba can join a domain, so you could probably do it that way
[14:58] <Pici> pornoninja: "sudo apt-get dpkg --configure -a" is not correct, use "sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[14:59] <Incarus6> jiltdil, that message from  jockey was false, jockey isn't working properly here
[14:59] <jiltdil> Incarus6:thanks
[14:59] <Incarus6> Pici, my mistake. pratz, try the latest command ;)
[14:59] <pratz> Incarus6,  this is the command i fire "sudo apt-get dpkg --configure -a" , but getting error
[14:59] <bfri> does anyone know a good equivalent to hotspot shield ?
[14:59] <Incarus6> pratz,  "sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[15:00] <Pici> bfri: Perhaps if you explained what hotspot shield was, we could help.
[15:00] <rkhshm> mhsky: any ideas?
[15:00] <LogicallyDashing> The F10 key causes the Network Manager menu to open. This is inconvenient because I need F10 in one of my applications, and said application didn't have the good sense to override the default shortcut. Ah well, how do I disable that shortcut? It doesn't show up in the usual Keyboard Shortcuts configurator.
[15:00] <Incarus6> bfri, it is an simple proxy program
[15:01] <pratz> Incarus6, this is the output http://paste.ubuntu.com/641941/ kindly check
[15:01] <bfri> Pici sorry thought it was popular its to hide your IP address.  I want to surf with an IP from the US while I;m abroad
[15:01] <pratz> Incarus6, is that some packages are not updated properly ??
[15:01] <bfri> Pici basically i want to continue services like pandora and hulu while abroad
[15:02] <\n> Please, for the love of all that's holy, will *someone* develop an open driver for the Broadcom wireless b43 set???
[15:02] <Incarus6> pratz, yes, try to reinstall the package "python-desktopcouch"
[15:02] <bfri> Incarus6 correct what can i use in ubuntu
[15:03] <pratz> Incarus6, no dude i am getting the same error
[15:03] <Incarus6> bfri, I don't know that software, but you can configure a proxy server in your network settings ;)
[15:03] <Incarus6> pratz, try "sudo dpkg --configure -a --force-all"
[15:03] <aljosa> i did "xhost +localhost" as current user and "export DISPLAY=:0.0" as user that tries to run an x app. "No protocol specified Error: Can not open display" - any idea what i'm doing wrong?
[15:03] <bfri> Incarus6 how would i do that?
[15:04] <pratz> Incarus6, hard luck the same error again
[15:04] <jiltdil> when i open a game warsow to play it is showing analog out of range 73.5hz/60hz? How to fix this if poosible
[15:05] <pratz> Incarus6, this is kind of frustrating as even force install does not work
[15:05] <HackNewton> Pici, Sorry I got it
[15:05] <BluesKaj> pratz, sudo apt-get -f install
[15:06] <Incarus6> pratz, so my last command didn't work?
[15:06] <_gambler> getting an error: unable to resolve host mcp ----- "mcp" is my host name
[15:06] <Incarus6> BluesKaj, we allready tried that
[15:06] <pratz> BluesKaj, that does not solve the problem
[15:06] <pratz> Incarus6, nope
[15:06] <glenn_> why is after -+1 h my screen black
[15:07] <Incarus6> bfri, I'm currently not using gnome but under System > Settings > Network-Proxy should be an option to configure a network proxy
[15:07] <Incarus6> pratz, any output?
[15:07] <BluesKaj> pratz, try , sudo dpkg --clear-avail
[15:07] <pornoninja> test
[15:07] <bfri> mmm
[15:07] <din> i'm trying to build a custom .deb package from apache source but i'd like to use the existing rules file for the current apache package. anyone know how i could get that?
[15:07] <pratz> when i fire this command sudo dpkg --configure -a --force-all , the output is http://paste.ubuntu.com/641950/
[15:08] <_gambler> does anyone know how to fix "unable to resolve host"
[15:08] <bfri> incarus6 is there any software that i can run to do this?
[15:08] <pratz> Incarus6,  when i fire this command sudo dpkg --configure -a --force-all , the output is http://paste.ubuntu.com/641950
[15:08] <Pici> _gambler: Are you getting this message when you use sudo?
[15:08] <_gambler> yes.
[15:08] <_gambler> pici, i was attemptig sudo apt-get wine
[15:08] <Pici> _gambler: Did you recently try to change your hostname?
[15:08] <_gambler> pici, yes.
[15:08] <pratz> Incarus6, in the log it is not finding python default version, did not exactly understand what it is
[15:09] <Pici> _gambler: It soulds like you only changed it in one of the two required files.  You need to modfiy /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname
[15:09] <chombee> Hey, anyone know what I can do to investigate this problem? My friend's new laptop (Thinkpad x220i) running Ubuntu 11.04 keeps freezing. Complete freeze, has to be hard-reset. Seems to be random, nothing in particular seeming to cause it.
[15:09] <_gambler> pici: whats the command to open the file?
[15:10] <rumpe1> chombee, have you checked harddisk/ram?
[15:10] <Incarus6> pratz, some kind of version mismatch. pls paste " ls -la /usr/bin/python*"
[15:10] <Pici> _gambler: sudo nano /etc/hosts  , but seeing as how you can't use sudo currently, you'll need to either do this via the recovery console, or via a LiveCD.
[15:10] <bfri> incarus6 is there any software that i can run to do this?
[15:10] <chombee> rumpe1, I ran memtest and it seemed to freeze immediately. It's not like it started testing memory and then froze, it's just frozen as soon as it comes up. Needed a hard reset.
[15:10] <pratz> BluesKaj, same error again  http://paste.ubuntu.com/641950/
[15:10] <chombee> rumpe1: Have not checked hd
[15:11] <Incarus6> bfri, I don't know how exactly that software work but Ubuntu delivers a very good firewall and the built-in proxy configuration works fine, so I think there is no need to use another software for that
[15:11] <pratz> Incarus6, here it is http://paste.ubuntu.com/641960/
[15:12] <Incarus6> pratz #2 is the issue
[15:12] <bfri> incarus6 so how could i configure that to do what i intend
[15:12] <extraclassic> bfri: you're trying to set up a VPN
[15:12] <rumpe1> chombee, memtest from boot-menu? ... sounds like broken ram or or board to me
[15:12] <ska> Can someone recommend a network-scanner for ubuntu? I can't find any.
[15:12] <ejo> I could use some help setting up xmonad on 11.04 ... I've followed existing tutorials and I seem to be ending up with a window manager conflict, and also I don't get offered the option to start an xmonad session from the login window as the tutorials said I would.
[15:12] <pratz> Incarus6, what should i do now ??
[15:12] <bfri> extraclassic: no i want to retain my US ip while im abroad
[15:12] <Incarus6> pratz, type "cd /usr/bin && sudo rm /usr/bin/python && sudo ln -s python2.6 /usr/bin/python"
[15:13] <chombee> rumpe1: Yeah
[15:13] <hamed> hi i have command line i always write it in terminal when i login . can i write it in shell script or any thing to write it for only time
[15:13] <rumpe1> chombee, to check harddisc-failure, maybe use memtest from a different media (cd, usb..)
[15:13] <Incarus6> extraclassic, he is trying to configure an US proxy server, but I can't explain that because Im not using Gnome/unity
[15:13] <chombee> rumpe1: Ok, I'll try that
[15:14] <rumpe1> chombee, but i would bet on your ram
[15:15] <extraclassic> i had one set up at one point but i used IPCop which configures squid for you
[15:16] <bfri> extraclassic: no i want to retain my US ip while im abroad
[15:16] <pratz> Incarus6, thank you very much dude, that has fixed the issue
[15:16] <ejo> Any other xmonad users here?  I tried asking at #xmonad, someone there asked me a clarification question which I answered and then received no responses.
[15:16] <pratz> Incarus6, i think the softlink what pointed wrong , am i correct ??
[15:17] <poill> which flash player version should i download ? (64 bits) YUM, tar.gz, rpm (that's redhat i think) or ATP ? what are the differences ? ty ;)
[15:17] <Incarus6> pratz, no problem. Yes, the softlink was wrong, it pointed to python2 which doesn't exist which seems to be a bug. It should point to python2.6
[15:18] <poill> which flash player version should i download ? (64 bits) YUM, tar.gz, rpm (that's redhat i think) or ATP ? what are the differences ? ty ;)
[15:18] <Incarus6> poill, it's allways better to install the version in the ubuntu repo
[15:18] <poill> ah, you mean something like sudo get-apt
[15:18] <Incarus6> !flash | poill
[15:18] <poill> ty
[15:19] <sipior> bfri: you'll want to find a vpn service with exit points in the united states. have a look at services like witopia or strongvpn.
[15:19] <Wiallim> poill: the you can search "flash" in software center
[15:19] <Incarus6> poill, or just type "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer"
[15:19] <bfri> sipior would teamviewer work?
[15:20] <cannonball> I just installed mplayer-gui using apt-get.  dpkg --listfiles doesn't show a /usr/bin/gmplayer, but the menu and mime files that it installed reference that binary.  Is there some other pkg that I'm missing that should be providing this binary?  (11.04 is installed).
[15:20] <poill> ty
[15:20] <Wiallim> Incarus6: Does the "flashplugin" installed in firefox?
[15:20] <sipior> bfri: never used it. you'll want a vpn service for securing your traffic at airports and the liks anyway.
[15:21] <Incarus6> Wiallim, I'mt not sure if I got that question right, but that will also install the flashplugin for firefox ;)
[15:21] <bfri> who am i setting this vpn up with and why does that allow me to use a different IP sipior
[15:22] <sipior> bfri: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_private_network
[15:23] <bfri> sipior  i dont really care about security as much as i do about just changing my IP
[15:23] <bfri> sipior does that make sense
[15:23] <Wiallim> haha, There is the easiest way that use firefox running your flash files.
[15:23] <sipior> bfri: it sounds moronic, frankly.
[15:23] <Incarus6> cannonball, I think gmplayer is obsolete, try gnome-mplayer ;)
[15:23] <chombee> rumpe1: Booted Ubuntu from a USB and now memtest is running, not freezing immediately as it did when I ran memtest from the internal HD. Maybe that means it's the HD? Is there a way to test the HD?
[15:23] <bfri> Sipior the security part or ip part?
[15:23] <Wiallim> The mplayer can't play flash file.
[15:23] <sipior> bfri: the security part, of course.
[15:24] <sipior> bfri: seeing as you can do both simultaneously.
[15:24] <bfri> sipior i am not concerned about my internet activity being monitored or info being stolen
[15:24] <bfri> sipior i just want another ip
[15:24] <rumpe1> chombee, sure... gparted has a check-tool for partitions...or there should be a Disk utility in the administration menu
[15:25] <viii> hey, so my mouse just dies once in a while.. is there a way to reset my mouse driver or soemthing
[15:25] <viii> ?
[15:25] <Incarus6> bfri, just in firefox or also in other programs?
[15:25] <bfri> incarus6 just firefox
[15:26] <bfri> sipior i also dont want to be reliant on a paid service
[15:26] <extraclassic> bfri: you made it sound like you were going abroad and needed to connect to your home computer, but you also wanted to mask the ip address
[15:26] <chombee> rumpe1: Thanks, I'll let the memtest run for a bit and then I'll run those from the USB
[15:26] <Wiallim> Hi,gay you can use Gnash SWF viewer.
[15:26] <Incarus6> bfri, then configure a proxy in firefox settings: http://www.wikihow.com/Enter-Proxy-Settings-in-Firefox
[15:27] <bfri> extraclassic: no what i want to obtain a US ip while im abroad
[15:27] <Incarus6> !language | Wiallim
[15:27] <sipior> bfri: then you're going to have to pay someone for the privilege.
[15:27] <gleb__> !ru
[15:27] <Wiallim> Incaru6: what up
[15:27] <Wiallim> ?
[15:28] <extraclassic> bfri: oh....go here(http://www.publicproxyservers.com/proxy/list1.html) and plug one of those into firefox
[15:28] <Wiallim> ubottu: fuckl
[15:28] <ikonia> Wiallim: control the langauge
[15:28] <Guest45374> hey how to get that bouncy windows effect in ubuntu 11.04
[15:28] <rumpe1> chombee, a command-line check for bad blocks on your hd would be "badblocks -n -v /dev/sdx"  (non-destructive read-write test)
[15:28] <Wiallim> I don't know Russian。
[15:29] <Wiallim> ikonia: OK.
[15:29] <ikonia> Wiallim: control your english language
[15:29] <Wiallim> ikonia
[15:29] <bfri> extraclassic: what do you mean plug one in?
[15:29] <Wiallim> 哈哈
[15:29] <chombee> rumpe1: Noted, thanks
[15:29] <extraclassic> bfri: get the ip address of a proxy on the list and manually configure proxy settings in your browser
[15:30] <blinkyb> Hi. My system started to get extremely slow especially with browsing. Is there any way I could fix that? Last week the pc was alright..

[15:31] <hang> hey how to get that bouncy windows effect in ubuntu 11.04
[15:31] <Wiallim> _gambler:thanks
[15:32] <sipior> hang: shake your monitor up and down.
[15:32] <_gambler> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[15:32] <AlexandrosGR> hello
[15:32] <arfbtwn> hang: you need to install the proper compiz settings manager and enable wobbly windows ;) sipior! lol
[15:32] <rumpe1> blinkyb, free ram: "free -m" (row buffers/cache, column free), harddisk: "df -h"
[15:32] <hang> which one is proper compiz manager for 11.04
[15:33] <AlexandrosGR> how can i increase gpu fans?

[15:33] <hang> i have a fifa 08 dvd for pc how can i run it on linux
[15:34] <bfri> extraclassic: now do i just put auto proxy config url?
[15:34] <Pici> hang: Is that a Windows game?
[15:34] <rumpe1> blinkyb, no
[15:34] <arfbtwn> hang: unlikely, but if it works at all it will through wine
[15:35] <AlexandrosGR> how can i increase gpu fans?
[15:35] <extraclassic> bfri: manually configure and put in an ip address
[15:35] <hang> yes
[15:35] <hang> it's not working thru wine
[15:36] <hang> i have already tried
[15:36] <bfri> extraclassic ...there are a lot of fields in that setting nowhere does it ask for ip address
[15:36] <blinkyb> rumpe1, typing 'free -m' & 'df -h' only lists some figures
[15:36] <Jemt> hang: Check private message
[15:36] <bfri> extraclassic  plus how do i know what IP to put?
[15:36] <blinkyb> rumpe1, total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached

[15:37] <rumpe1> blinkyb, use a pastebin or write the relevant entries
[15:37] <extraclassic> bfri: if you ping a url it'll tell you the ip address
[15:37] <venki> can i ask a question(problem) regarding my natty
[15:37] <sipior> venki: ask away
[15:37] <arfbtwn> hang: http://tinyurl.com/62td4sn this might help
[15:37] <bfri> extraclassic - could i bother you to take this step by step with me
[15:37] <bfri> ?
[15:37] <usr13> bfri: It is essential to know the proxy information for you to be able to configure your system to use it.
[15:37] <blinkyb> rumpe1, http://pastebin.com/y3XVY70e
[15:38] <bfri> usr13: so how can i get that info
[15:38] <usr13> bfri: Unless it is a transparent proxi.
[15:38] <viii> nvm, if anyone was curious i just rmmod-ed psmouse and put it back in
[15:39] <pornoninja> where do you set compiz --replace to be set automatically?
[15:39] <venki> my mouse was not working in certain region and some times even the buttons are also disabled any solution?
[15:39] <bfri> user13: In windows there is a browser that allows you do obtain a US ip address i just want to beable to do that in ubuntu
[15:39] <Oins> Is it possible to hide/disable the mouse pointer. At some flash games, the mouse pointer isn't hidden (where it should be). How could i do this?
[15:39] <AlexandrosGR> how can i increase gpu fans?
[15:39] <bfri> usr13 im not concerned about security or anything else just the ip
[15:40] <venki> its not hidden in some region of the desktop it not working that is mouse clicks and scrolling are not working!
[15:40] <extraclassic> bfri: go to that site i sent and ping some urls from the US to get an ip and the proxies there work over port 80
[15:40] <blinkyb> rumpe1, what's next?
[15:40] <rumpe1> blinkyb, pastebin.com doesn't seem to work here (blocked)
[15:41] <usr13> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_server
[15:41] <sipior> venki: might the mouse simply be broken?
[15:41] <bfri> extraclassic how do i ping them
[15:41] <Pici> bfri: There isn't a program or service in Ubuntu that automatically provides you with a proxied addres. You may want to look into tor, but you're not gaurantueed where your endpoint will be.
[15:41] <blinkyb> rumpe1, http://paste.ubuntu.com/641983/
[15:42] <bfri> Pici: and thats my concern
[15:42] <_gambler> how do i remove wine?
[15:43] <usr13> _gambler: apt-get remove wine
[15:43] <venki> its not me facing that prob and my mouse is worked wonderfully in ubuntu 10.10 after i formated to natty its stopped working in some regions(below the center of the desktop)!!!!!!!
[15:44] <sandman1> Will a default Ubuntu installation come with any licensing headaches? That is, can I use a default Ubuntu Server installation for a client, and not worry that there are any sort of restrictions on how they may use the software (or use the software at all)?
[15:44] <sipior> sandman1: no licensing headaches.
[15:45] <coz_>  good day all
[15:45] <venki> its not me facing that prob and my mouse is worked wonderfully in ubuntu 10.10 after i formated to natty its stopped working in some regions(below the center of the desktop)!!!!!!!
[15:45] <phoenixsampras> helo
[15:46] <sipior> sandman: if your client is planning on modifying software and redistributing it, you'll need to look at the specific terms of each program (generally some version of the GNU General Public Licence)
[15:46] <phoenixsampras> help!! The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources.  << how to enable such packages?
[15:46] <sandman> sipior: Okay. Well, what I've got is a situation where a client uses Microsoft Access as a database frontend and a backend. There are some problems with it, which is primarily where I will come in. What I'd like to do is build for them an Ubuntu Server running PostGreSQL to operate as a backend to LibreOffice Base.
[15:46] <sandman> They won't be modifying any software and redistributing it.
[15:46] <coz_> phoenixsampras,  what are you trying to install?
[15:46] <sipior> sandman: no worries, then.
[15:47] <phoenixsampras> coz_ Ember
[15:47] <venki> ha is there nay one to look at m prob
[15:47] <coz_> phoenixsampras,  did you download this pacakge..yes?
[15:47] <rumpe1> blinkyb, well... ram and hd space doesn't seem to be the problem... as long as you don't open a few ram intensive applications like libreoffice, gimp oder browsers at the same time
[15:47] <sandman> But yeah. Like I said about the setup, Libre Base as the front-end to a PostGreSQL backend. I want to use Ubuntu because, well, frankly if I can't service them after I'm done, they'll have some place to go (Canonical)
[15:47] <phoenixsampras> coz_ im using ubuntu software center
[15:47] <coz_> phoenixsampras,  ah ok let me check here hold on
[15:47] <blinkyb> rumpe1, I'm just running firefox alone..
[15:47] <sandman> I'd like to, from now on, provide my clients with Canonical's support information, such that they can call to get service, should I not be able to.
[15:47] <blinkyb> rumpe1, Well, along with X-Chat here..
[15:48] <sandman> So, this is good. I have a feeling Ubuntu will be running very well =)
[15:48] <bfri> extraclassic ok now i ping'ed some now what?
[15:48] <sandman> Thanks for answering my question.
[15:48] <sipior> sandman: no trouble.
[15:48] <rumpe1> blinkyb, maybe check with "top", which daemons/programs are using you resources
[15:48] <venki> hye please yar
[15:48] <coz_> phoenixsampras,  this is 11.04..yes?
[15:48] <phoenixsampras> yes
[15:49] <coz_> phoenixsampras,  close software center and open synaptic package manager
[15:49] <phoenixsampras> opened
[15:50] <coz_> phoenixsampras,  ok  hit the "Search" button and type in    ember
[15:50] <Aple> Whats a good program for burning cd's on Ubuntu?
[15:50] <coz_> phoenixsampras,   right click the ember package and mark for installation,,,
[15:50] <coz_> phoenixsampras,  it will list the additional packages needed  and click apply to install

[15:50] <phoenixsampras> coz_: cool now is installing
[15:50] <venki> When i am trying to install any software i am getting an error like this ubuntu is not genuine? what should i do?
[15:51] <Pici> venki: Can you pastebin the *exact* error message you are getting?
[15:52] <balaji_> "if you dont know vi, you dnt know linux" this is a comment given to me when asked about "vi editor". i am using linux more than a year but didnt use vi bcos i felt its difficult. is there any guide to get started with "vi editor" or any instructions?
[15:52] <Pici> balaji_: vimtutor is a good start. (I've been using Linux for nearly 10 years (yikes!) and I just started to learn vim this year)
[15:52] <rumpe1> balaji_, vim usually comes with "vimtutor" as a tutorial
[15:53] <balaji_> rumpe1: how to use it?
[15:53] <venki> pici, This is not a genuine ubuntu package
[15:54] <wabznasm> balaji: try installing gvim and working with the menus. Easy way to pick up basic commands
[15:54] <rumpe1> rumpe1, open terminal, enter "top", watch and learn
[15:54] <Incarus6> balaji_, vi is obsolete as editor
[15:54] <ska> Has anyone had good luck with the LaserJet Pro M1212nf in Ubuntu??
[15:55] <arfbtwn> Incarus6: a text editor can be obsolete? lol
[15:55] <rumpe1> Incarus6, edlin is obsolete, but vi certainly isn't
[15:55] <blinkyb> rumpe1, there is something called plugin'containe'
[15:56] <jan-ake> exit
[15:56] <blinkyb> rumpe1, there is something called 'plugin-containe'. As soon as I ran 'top', containe was running %93! now it's around 8.
[15:57] <AlexandrosGR> how can i increase gpu fans? i have acer aspire 6530g and 3560 ati mob
[15:57] <Incarus6> arfbtwn, rumpe1, compared to nano it is in my opinion, but that is offtopic ;)
[15:57] <rumpe1> blinkyb, perhaps you have activated some fancy desktop-window-stuff, which need some time and cpu
[15:57] <disusered> hi, i'm running 11.04 server and after a power outage, i can't login as root (hangs past the motd) and if i login as a normal user and su, the term becomes unresponsive
[15:57] <Incarus6> blinkyb, rumpe1, plugin-container is the firefox process which is an extra process for flash player
[15:57] <rumpe1> Incarus6, is it offtopic? ... on my router theres no nano and no vim... just vi. So there are real-world cases, where you have to use vi.
[15:57] <blinkyb> rumpe1, I will remove this plugin and restart pc.
[15:58] <Incarus6> blinkyb, That won't fix it, IMO
[15:58] <blinkyb> Incarus6, what do you propose then? I mentioned that last week my pc was running fine!
[15:58] <AlexandrosGR> how can i increase gpu fans? i have acer aspire 6530g and 3560 ati mob
[15:59] <balaji_> rumpe1:what to learn from "top". it is just showing processes
[15:59] <rumpe1> balaji_, to learn, what's really going on...
[16:00] <Incarus6> blinkyb, if plugin-container allmost use CPU 100% then the flash player is hanging. It's a common issue because Adobe activated the new hadware acceleration. You could disable it and try if that will work
[16:00] <rumpe1> balaji_, what desktop do you use? maybe a less fancy desktop can increase the performance significantly
[16:00] <blinkyb> Incarus6, disable it? How am I gonna use flash then?
[16:00] <blinkyb> Lemme go back to 'top' and see progress.
[16:01] <balaji_> rumpe1:gnome.. nothing fancy:)
[16:01] <sipior> AlexandrosGR: might be useful: http://forums.amd.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=310&threadid=124448
[16:01] <balaji_> rumpe1:classic gnome
[16:01] <Incarus6> blinkyb, don't disable flash. I meant disable the hardware acceleration of flash
[16:02] <blinkyb> Incarus6, I apologize, but could you guide me through this?
[16:02] <rumpe1> balaji_, with or without desktop effects? ... and flash really needs a (relative) fast cpu (2GHz+)
[16:02] <Incarus6> blinkyb, are you using firefox?
[16:02] <nunizacu> hello, im looking for a software to help me catalogue my boxex and its content
[16:02] <blinkyb> Incarus6, yes. Firefox 4
[16:03] <Pici> nunizacu: 'boxex'?
[16:03] <balaji_> rumpe1: I think you are messing me with someother. i just asked about vi and not about flash
[16:03] <Incarus6> blinkyb, there is an option in firefox settings under "Advanced" > "Browsing"
[16:03] <nunizacu> paper box
[16:03] <rumpe1> balaji_, ah... ok. sorry. :)
[16:04] <nunizacu> with content in it
[16:04] <balaji_> rumpe1: no problem:)
[16:04] <blinkyb> Incarus6, I only can see [File / Edit / View / History / Bookmarks / Tools / Help]
[16:05] <tous_> hi jason0
[16:05] <Incarus6> blinkyb, or wait, better: right click a flash video > Settings and disable hardware acceleration there ;)
[16:05] <nunizacu> i tried few books related systems, but i use to have more stuff in them, like computer stuff, cables
[16:06] <nunizacu> save me from writing my own in php :D
[16:07] <wizzr> I'M GONNA FUCK AROUND AND PUT THAT BOYS BRAINS ON THE TABLE
[16:07] <wizzr> I PUT THAT PISTOL TO HIS HEAD, TOLD THAT NIGGA TO HAVE A BLAST
[16:07] <coz_> wizzr,  o0
[16:08] <blinkyb> Incarus6, done. Lemme restart and see how that goes. Thanks.
[16:08] <Incarus6> blinkyb, you don't need to restart
[16:09] <Incarus6> jsut make sure that option is allways disabled and it should work fine
[16:13] <koffeehaus> will older gtk2 themes work with gnome shell?
[16:14] <xangua> koffeehaus: no
[16:14] <coz_> koffeehaus, not sure I havent tested it but its unlikely
[16:14] <xangua> only on gtk2 apps
[16:15] <koffeehaus> xangua : what about icons?
[16:16] <Damianus> hi
[16:17] <prof7bit> i have a strange problem with /usr/bin/xterm and /etc/alternatives/x-terminal-emulator
[16:17] <balaji_> how to open application as daemon from terminal? if i open firefox using terminal there cursor waits till i close firefox, instead i want to open firefox then return to command line
[16:17] <Damianus> someone have here lenovo t500?
[16:17] <prof7bit> bernd@t40:~\ $ ls /etc/alternatives/x-terminal-emulator
[16:17] <prof7bit> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2011-07-11 17:43 /etc/alternatives/x-terminal-emulator -> /usr/bin/xterm
[16:17] <prof7bit> its a symlink
[16:17] <jrib> balaji_: append '&' to your command
[16:17] <jrib> !enter | prof7bit
[16:18] <prof7bit> but if i start it with /usr/bin/xterm it is black on white and if i start it through the symlink it is white on black!
[16:18] <jrib> prof7bit: what is your question? :D
[16:18] <balaji_> jrib: thank u
[16:19] <prof7bit> see above. why does it use different default settings although it points to the same applivation
[16:19] <brimestone> hello guys... i have something in mind. can i have 4 servers running ubuntu and merge all of their storage space and make them into one volume sort of like a NAS?
[16:19] <jrib> prof7bit: sometimes programs check how they are called and behave differently
[16:20] <nightrid3r> brimestone have a look at glusterfs
[16:20] <brimestone> i  been reading about glusterfs... is that pretty much the norm for ubuntu?
[16:20] <exx> helloworld
[16:21] <tous667> what is glusterfs

[16:22] <dury> hi there channel :)
[16:23] <dury> need support to install google earth in natty
[16:23] <dury> what are the steps to do that?
[16:24] <prof7bit> i cant find this default settings for xterm anywhere.
[16:24] <brimestone> thanks
[16:26] <prof7bit> where should I look to find out why xterm is using different colors depending on how the symlink is named?
[16:27] <dury> google earth in Natty Narwhal
[16:28] <jrib> prof7bit: xterm source?
[16:28] <prof7bit> no.
[16:28] <prof7bit> there must be a configuration option, don't you think?
[16:28] <jrib> prof7bit: that's the answer to your question.  Anyway, my guess is you probably want to craft a nice ~/.Xdefaults
[16:29] <KoltMaesta> Hi! I have an ubuntu on a sony vaio and when I start it it sais that It's running in low graphics mode. How do I get it work normally?
[16:29] <prof7bit> i don't have an Xdefaults currently that would have chnged the colors, so where else should I look?
[16:30] <jrib> prof7bit: there may be an equivalent system-wide file...
[16:31] <coz_> KoltMaesta,  do you know which video card is on that system?
[16:32] <jrib> prof7bit: try « xrdb -q »
[16:32] <coz_> KoltMaesta,  open a terminal  type   lspci | grep -i vga  or just copy and paste that into the terminal window
[16:32] <KoltMaesta> coz_: I don't really but it had some mesa driver and it went broken when I tryed to install some required nvidia thing for plaonlinux
[16:32] <coz_> KoltMaesta,  paste the readout here
[16:33] <prof7bit> bernd@t40:~\ $ xrdb -q | grep xterm
[16:33] <prof7bit> xterm*background:       #ffffff
[16:33] <prof7bit> xterm*foreground:       #000000
[16:33] <prof7bit> xterm.SimpleMenu*background:    #eeeff2
[16:33] <prof7bit> xterm.SimpleMenu*foreground:    #000000
[16:33] <jrib> prof7bit: well there you go...
[16:33] <prof7bit> this is the white xterm
[16:34] <prof7bit> but where does the black from /etc/alternatives come from
[16:34] <jrib> prof7bit: black is probably the default.
[16:34] <KoltMaesta> coz_: VGA compatble controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
[16:34] <coz_> KoltMaesta,  ok thats why mesa broke when you tried to install anything nvidia
[16:34] <Dr_Willis> you could do xterm -rv    to reverse colors
[16:34] <prof7bit> this is the first black xterm I have seen in my life...
[16:35] <jrib> prof7bit: well remove those definitions from your xresources and run xterm, see if it's black or white
[16:35] <coz_> KoltMaesta,   open a terminal   I believe if you do    sudo apt-get autoremove nvidia*   then run  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade    reboot and test
[16:35] <skarufue> jrib: does it matter if its black or white?
[16:35] <Dr_Willis> xterm -bg red -fg green     :) to set colors
[16:36] <jrib> skarufue: heh
[16:36] <Senjai> !update
[16:37] <IamTrying> Hello Ubuntu, in google.com when i find articles now a days it ask username/password to login? From when?

[16:41] <Senjai> !grub > Senjai
[16:42] <BluesKaj> KoltMaesta, wifi problem or is it security you're worried about ?
[16:42] <vlt> !ask | rafi
[16:43] <KoltMaesta> BluesKaj: I know the pass I know the networkname I just don't know how to connect to it with iwconfig
[16:43] <markskilbeck> Hi, all. Is it possible to have the static application switcher show the window titles? Currently, it does not and can be hard to determine which is the correct window?
[16:44] <BluesKaj> KoltMaesta, have you setup network manager settings ?
[16:44] <hhh> hi all
[16:44] <KoltMaesta> BluesKaj: Its in recovery mode. I have termianl only.
[16:44] <pt0> hi, is there a desktop app for ubuntu that supports google bookmarks (kind of stand alone app?)
[16:51] <rrva> rafi: open a terminal, and type sudo apt-get install subversion ssh
[16:54] <rafi> rrva ok
[16:56] <rafi> rrva : ok i have done
[16:56] <rrva> rafi: what IDE are you using? what do you want to do?
[16:57] <KoltMaesta> coz_: I did the dist/upgrade it installed a lot of mesa things but graphics are still not working
[16:57] <coz_> KoltMaesta,  mm  and you rebooted...yes?
[16:57] <nerdy_kid> anyone here have a working a nvidia optimus?
[16:57] <KoltMaesta> coz_: yes
[16:57] <rafi> rrva : give me sec please
[16:57] <coz_> KoltMaesta,  I am going to hand you off to someone else because my experience with Intel video is very limited
[16:59] <KoltMaesta> coz_: ty anyway. How do I get aptitude to list already installed packages and search between packages?
[17:00] <coz_> KoltMaesta, i believe it is    aptitude search '~i'
[17:01] <rafi> rrva: i have to handle my work . so i need to commited , i know how to do in windows but i dont under linux ..
[17:01] <rrva> rafi: ok, you can use command-line svn or a graphical client. What do you want?
[17:03] <rrva> rafi: with command-line it's just "svn checkout http://blah/blah" or "svn checkout svn://blah/blah", and then you can use "svn add foo.txt" "svn commit -m "foo.txt is too boring" foo.txt
[17:04] <rrva> rafi: if you don't want command-line, what language IDE are you working with? eclipse?
[17:04] <rafi> ok  for example i have go in to http//sdtsvn.grahamecooper.com/
[17:06] <prof7bit> sloved it. the following into a (newly created) ~/.Xresources :
[17:06] <prof7bit> x-terminal-emulator*background:       #ffffff
[17:06] <prof7bit> x-terminal-emulator*foreground:       #000000
[17:06] <prof7bit> x-terminal-emulator.SimpleMenu*background:    #eeeff2
[17:06] <prof7bit> x-terminal-emulator.SimpleMenu*foreground:    #000000
[17:06] <prof7bit>  and then run xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources
[17:06] <prof7bit>  and the colors are correct.
[17:06] <FloodBot1> prof7bit: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:07] <rafi> rrva : BoUML
[17:08] <rrva> rafi: just checkout, add, commit is what you will probably use
[17:09] <rrva> rafi: svn checkout URL checks out source, svn add adds a file, svn commit -m "comment" commits to the repository with a comment
[17:09] <rrva> rafi: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn-book.html#svn.intro.quickstart
[17:09] <KoltMaesta> how do I mount an usb drive in terminal?
[17:09] <rafi> rrva: thanks
[17:09] <iceroot> KoltMaesta: sudo mount /dev/sdX /where/to/mount
[17:10] <ActionParsnip> !mount | KoltMaesta
[17:10] <rrva> rafi: also for GUI, try http://rabbitvcs.org/ (have not tried it)
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> KoltMaesta: they usually automount, unless you failed to safely remove the device and just pulled it out without first informing your OS
[17:14] <roasted_> Question - I've heard it said to make your swap partition the same size as your RAM. What if I have a server with 48gb of RAM? Does the same rule still apply, or wouldn't it because I wouldn't be utilizing hibernate mode on a server?
[17:15] <ActionParsnip> roasted_: with 48Gb I wouldn't bother personally
[17:15] <TheFuzzball> roasted_ The more RAM you have the less swap you need.
[17:16] <TheFuzzball> If it was 500MB RAM then you'd probably benefit from a 500MB+ swap
[17:16] <sipior> roasted_: if you're planning on using most of that ram, you'll certainly want a few GB of swap at least, to hold unallocated memory reservations.
[17:17] <roasted_> ActionParsnip, TheFuzzball, so with a server with 48gb of RAM what would you do for swap? Say 10gb and call it a day?
[17:17] <TheFuzzball> roasted_ That should be more than enough.
[17:17] <roasted_> sipior, that's what I thought, but on a server with 76gb of space I had a hard time thinking 48 would be swap alone...
[17:17] <koffeehaus> hello, what is the alternative for gksudo nautilus command used for gnome shell?
[17:18] <roasted_> This server is an LTSP thin client server, so it's processor/network/RAM intensive but HDD space isnt used heavily
[17:18] <TheFuzzball> koffeehaus you can run gksu in a shell.
[17:18] <SpiderFred> ahem when I have txt file encoded in windows-1250 how to turn it into utf8 or something different?
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> roasted_: unless, as you say, you need hibernate. I'd have a 10Gb one so things don't go crazy but that much RAM wouldneed less swap (depends on the servers role)
[17:18] <roasted_> koffeehaus, gksu nautilus is still used in gnome shell. I use it personally.
[17:18] <sipior> roasted_: the point is, if you don't have swap, some of that ram will be wasted for memory reservations which are never used. (the ram is wasted)
[17:18] <koffeehaus> roasted_ thanks man
[17:18] <TheFuzzball> koffeehaus You might just use sudo though.
[17:18] <roasted_> thanks guys
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> !find dos2
[17:19] <jamesbond2> Hello, I am testing the oneiric and saw there is error with php / imap.so
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> SpiderFred: try dos2unix (if i undrstand right)

[17:20] <jamesbond2> Pici : thnx
[17:21] <cluMor_or_less> hi. i have an external USB drive that I want to mount to "/backup" and I've done that manually before.  My problemn is that the system keeps automatically mounting the drive under /media/ELEMENTS (in defienace of my fstab entry :-) )  how can I disable the automated mounting of this device under /media?? (or any other suggestions)
[17:21] <cluMor_or_less> The disk is used to do backups across the LAN
[17:21] <CloneUser> I need to clone a user account...can i just cp - R one home to another?
[17:22] <cluMor_or_less> CloneUser: you could as a first step of many, but I think useradd or adduser may have an option to do that for you much more easily. check the man page?
[17:22] <ActionParsnip> cluMor_or_less: make a symlink to /backup or add an entry in /etc/fstab
[17:22] <TheFuzzball> cluMor_or_less Why not rename the disk to Backup and stick to automatically mounting?
[17:23] <CloneUser> i need to have the same desktop and menu settings....i don't think useradd can help me, can't it?
[17:23] <Surendil> CloneUser: use adduser to clone the user, the cp home folder
[17:23] <ActionParsnip> cluMor_or_less: sudo ln -s /media/ELEMENTS /backup
[17:23] <cluMor_or_less> TheFuzzball: rename it? hmm, even if I do rename it, the system rules will keep trying to mount it under /media.
[17:24] <bytesaber_work> i know how to mount remote drives.    smb point in fstab,   manually one time,  nfs maps, etc.    But when i put my usb key into my usb port, gnome shows me a pretty icon that magically pops up.    Doesn't Gnome know something similar for network drives?   I swear i've accidently had gnome show me a mounted network drive on my desktop before.
[17:24] <ActionParsnip> cluMor_or_less: did you use the partition's UUID in fstab?
[17:24] <TheFuzzball> cluMor_or_less I see :S It looks like fstab is your only option there then :)
[17:24] <SpiderFred> ActionParsnip, yeah thx
[17:25] <cluMor_or_less> ActionParsnip: Ia gree that would bea start but over the years I have learned that its a bad idea to use symbolic links as parts of network wide infrastructural namespace for things that are intended to never move
[17:25] <cluMor_or_less> TheFuzzball: I already have the fstab entry.
[17:25] <cluMor_or_less> The problem seems to be the udev stuff?
[17:25] <ActionParsnip> bytesaber_work: if they are mounted in fstab then no, if you mount it using nautilus etc, then yes
[17:25] <Aahan> No Audio on Ubuntu 11.04 Virtual Machine installed on Virtual Box. Windows 7 Host. Any help?
[17:26] <bytesaber_work> ActionParsnip, if I tell fstabl to mount to a folder that is on my desktop, it makes a 2nd "hard drive" icon on my desktop.
[17:26] <ActionParsnip> Aahan: do you have sound enabled in the config of the virtualbox?
[17:27] <bytesaber_work> ActionParsnip, if i map it in fstab to /mnt/someserver  nothing pops up on my desktop
[17:27] <Aahan> I guess so
[17:27] <Aahan> because movies, songs etc are playing
[17:27] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: Issue is only with chat so far
[17:28] <bytesaber_work> ActionParsnip, i even have an eject button option to "umount it"
[17:28] <bytesaber_work> ActionParsnip, a nice clean visual shwoing me that this is not part of my local machine
[17:28] <ActionParsnip> Aahan: so, doesn't mean you have sound enabled in the config, does it. You will need to shutdown the virtual system then check.
[17:29] <melik> is it possible to send SMS messages through command line
[17:29] <DJAMLER> why can't I connect to wifi network with ubuntu 11.04 // I'm new with ubuntu
[17:29] <cluMor_or_less> ActionParsnip: no I didnt use the UUID. I've used mount for almost 30 years and "UUID's seem icky to me"  :-) (half joking - I hate trying to type stuff like that)
[17:29] <ActionParsnip> bytesaber_work: could make a link on your desktop for easy access to the mount point
[17:30] <cluMor_or_less> ActionParsnip: as the UUID is unique, will that mean i dont have to use the device name. like /dev/sdb1 ?
[17:30] <cluMor_or_less> jus tswap the UUID in for the device name in the fstab entry?
[17:30] <Hachya> should work that way
[17:30] <bytesaber_work> ActionParsnip, that's what the folder on my desktopwas for.   yet Gnome made a 2nd "hard drive" icon representing the same place.
[17:30] <bytesaber_work> ActionParsnip, if i map it to somewhere else, like /mnt/blah   then nothing shows up on my desktop
[17:30] <cluMor_or_less> Hachya: was that to me?
[17:31] <DarkStar1> hello everyone.
[17:31] <bytesaber_work> ActionParsnip, if i make a short cut to /mnt/blah then sure i have an icon on my desktop.    My question is, what's automagically popping up when i map it to my desktop?
[17:31] <Hachya> cluMor_or_less: yes
[17:31] <yewushang> hello all
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> cluMor_or_less: it may not be sdb1 each time. The UUID uniquly identifies the partition. You can see the UUID with: sudo blkid   see your fstab file for syntax
[17:32] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: If I am not wrong, you are talking about enabling audio in the virtualbox settings right? if so, yes, it's enabled
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> Aahan: ok the run alsamixer and be sure all levels are cranked and unmuted
[17:34] <Hachya> cluMor_or_lessL UUIDs take place of that path, unless i'm retarded....
[17:34] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: Like I said I am new to Linux stuff. How do I run alsamixer?
[17:34] <perfectjitesh> i wanmted to develop gui apps with python , i am a beginner so what interface should i use 1) wxpython or something else
[17:34] <ActionParsnip> bytesaber_work: i believe its udev but it may just be nautilus reading the contents of ~/.gvfs
[17:35] <bytesaber_work> ActionParsnip, ahh could be a .blah thing it's sensing at that path
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> Aahan: its a terminal command
[17:35] <RWINZ> QUESTION: Hello everybody, can someone tell me about how to install my cdma modem on my ubuntu natty?
[17:35] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: okay, will be right back
[17:35] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: vi...no jk jk..... go here: http://wiki.python.org/moin/GuiProgramming
[17:35] <Pici> perfectjitesh: #python is a good resource as well.
[17:36] <Hachya> lolz
[17:36] <de22> hello guys, i'm running an up-to-date Ubuntu 10.04 lucid release, but i want some (actually one) packets that are present in Oneiric repos. question is : Is it ok for me to add (if i can really do that) oneiric repos to my lucid lynx ?
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> RWINZ: plug it in and run: lsusb; lspci
[17:37] <ActionParsnip> RWINZ: one line will identify the device, you can use the line to find guides
[17:37] <RWINZ> "lspci" is for what?
[17:37] <RWINZ> i have already used "lsusb" command to list my usb port
[17:38] <cluMor_or_less> Hachya: thanks
[17:38] <Hachya> lists pci devices....
[17:38] <Hachya> details about each bus, devices, etc.
[17:38] <ActionParsnip> De22: its not advised nor supported to mix packages between releases, you will get a big mess.
[17:38] <RWINZ> after that, i see my modem is on /dev/sr0
[17:38] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: okay I ran the command. Please see this screenshot: http://img1.uploadscreenshot.com/images/orig/7/19113361850-orig.jpg Now what do you think?
[17:38] <RWINZ> and i type to eject my modem
[17:39] <RWINZ> after that?
[17:39] <Hachya> he wants to put elements of the new Ubuntu gui onto Ubuntu 10 with Gnome?
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> De22: i suggest you upgrade to oneiric or find a ppa
[17:39] <Pici> !who
[17:39] <de22> ActionParsnip, i thought so
[17:39] <cluMor_or_less> ActionParsnip: eww, eww.  ick! Ick!   well - Ok it works, but it just doesn't "feel right" without a device name! eww! ick ick! [OK, I'll grow up now... ]
[17:39] <cluMor_or_less> ActionParsnip: thanks.
[17:39] <Hachya> yeah my fault..
[17:39] <cluMor_or_less> :)
[17:39] <de22> ActionParsnip, but thing is that i'm talking of autoconf
[17:39] <ActionParsnip> cluMor_or_less: using UUID solves a lot of issues
[17:40] <Hachya> cluMor_or_less: what he said...
[17:41] <RWINZ> ActionParsnip, i see my usb port on /dev/sr0. and i eject it
[17:41] <ActionParsnip> Rwinz: /dev/sr0 will be a CD drive,not a modem
[17:41] <Hachya> cluMor_or_less: try this: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-finding-using-uuids-to-update-fstab/
[17:41] <de22> ActionParsnip, i need the last version (2.68) for some build, but only oneiric got that one it seems... other untrusted repos still have the 2.67, of course i can still install it as a deb, but i won't get automatic updates, which can be disturbing for such a program
[17:41] <Hachya> cluMor_or_less: that should give you a bit of direction...
[17:41] <markskilbeck> Hi, all. Is it possible to have the static application switcher show the window titles? Currently, it does not and can be hard to determine which is the correct window.
[17:41] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: I ran the command. Please see this screenshot: http://img1.uploadscreenshot.com/images/orig/7/19113361850-orig.jpg Now what do you think?
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> Aahan: masterM is muted. Use cursors and m to unmute it. Esc to quit
[17:42] <RWINZ> ActionParsnip, owh, i am sorry. i mean i eject dev/sr1
[17:42] <canuo> czesc
[17:42] <ActionParsnip> Rwinz: sr0 isn't a modem.
[17:43] <canuo> jakis polak?
[17:43] <ActionParsnip> !pl
[17:43] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: How do I unmute it?
[17:43] <RWINZ> ActionParsnip, after that i typed "sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0x19f5 product=0x9909"
[17:43] <ActionParsnip> Aahan: i just told you......read
[17:44] <ActionParsnip> RWINZ: does that make it work?
[17:45] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: I unmuted everything I could see in there by navigating using cursors
[17:45] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: is that okay?
[17:45] <RWINZ> ActionParsnip, the modem is detected, but i can't connect to my provider
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> Aahan: should be fine. Minimize the terminal and be sure the host's sound works. Then make some noise in the guest
[17:46] <perfectjitesh> i am on natty : my ubuntu software center is not working even after i gave a fresh installation
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> !3g
[17:47] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: like not working HOW?
[17:47] <eXcAliBuR> i'm at a screen saying one or more drives containting serial ata raid have been found.. I don't know what to click, yes or no
[17:47] <RWINZ> ActionParsnip, what should i do? i am using ubuntu natty 64-bit
[17:47] <perfectjitesh> does not display anything
[17:48] <perfectjitesh> means it starts with a blank screen
[17:48] <perfectjitesh> and stays like that
[17:48] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: new install you say....
[17:48] <perfectjitesh> yup a day old
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> perfectjitesh: can you use a pastebin to please give the output of: sudo apt-get update; lsb_release -a; sudo apt-get -y upgrade
[17:48] <perfectjitesh> k
[17:49] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: he beat me to it XD
[17:49] <ActionParsnip> Rwinz: does network manager not manage that stuff now?
[17:49] <perfectjitesh> XD ?
[17:49] <perfectjitesh> MEANS
[17:50] <ActionParsnip> Rwinz: the line in the lsusb should show you guides
[17:50] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: just me laughin...at myself
[17:50] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: Not working. Host is fine though. Here's a screenshot of the settings again: http://img1.uploadscreenshot.com/images/orig/7/19113482060-orig.jpg
[17:50] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: DUDE, stop sending me pms with your results!
[17:51] <eugenix> Hello I have a problem with my Ubuntu 10.04. When I start the sleep or hibernate the process starts with the screen switches off but the computer immediately resumes as if there was a process that wakes up the computer. You know you help me??
[17:51] <RWINZ> ActionParsnip: how can the line in the lsusb help me to configure
[17:51] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: put in a txt file and send....
[17:51] <perfectjitesh> HACHYA:  thanks
[17:52] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: also send to ActionParsnip
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> Rwinz: it identifies the chip inside and people are good at sharing how to guides
[17:52] <RWINZ> ActionParsnip, the network manager help me to manage, but i think that is not compatible because i am using EVDO network
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> Hachya: please use a pastebin like http://pastie.org
[17:53] <Hachya> ActionParsnip: yeah, I didn't send it....
[17:53] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: Not working. Host is fine though. Here's a screenshot of the settings again: http://img1.uploadscreenshot.com/images/orig/7/19113482060-orig.jpg
[17:53] <Aahan> As far as I know, problem is still only with chat
[17:54] <Hachya> ActionParsnip: meant to say that to him...
[17:54] <eugenix> who can help me?
[17:54] <eugenix> please
[17:54] <ActionParsnip> Aahan: i suggest you ask in #vbox it usually works ok. Maybe others can help
[17:54] <Aahan> okay
[17:55] <rtr-> hi, i have problems with dnsmasqs dhcp, shouldnt it be enough to set "dhcp-range=192.168.0.50,192.168.0.150,12h"  in the config to enable dhcp? (i just see enable-tftp not enable-dhcp)
[17:55] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: Maybe I should restart my system now and see?
[17:55] <ActionParsnip> perfectjitesh: please use a pastebin like http://pastie.org
[17:55] <h00k> !ask | eugenix
[17:55] <cluMor_or_less> ActionParsnip: clearly I've been doing this too long, to have such a reaction to an arbitrary text string... :-D
[17:55] <ActionParsnip> Hachya: cheers dude
[17:56] <eugenix> ubottu:ok thanks
[17:56] <ActionParsnip> cluMor_or_less: hehe well its set now, you can forget it (unless you buy a new drive ;))
[17:57] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: you are saying that every time you sleep or hibernate the computer wakes itself up again immediately?
[17:58] <eugenix> clumor: yes
[17:58] <cluMor_or_less> ActionParsnip: I must go to confessional at Stallmans office in Cambridge this sunday and confess my sin(s?). :-)
[17:58] <wildc4rd> evenin all
[17:58] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: can we narrow it down a little, ? are you issuing  a hibernate command to the computer?
[17:59] <ActionParsnip> perfectjitesh: make the paste on the site. When you click paste the address bar will change. Copy the new address and paste it here
[18:01] <perfectjitesh> haycha & actionparship i used pastie , send the file to both of u , in .rb format  , but is is just showing  status :waiting
[18:01] <perfectjitesh> http://pastie.org/2197899
[18:01] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: answer here please? :-)
[18:01] <eugenix> Its impolite to use PM on Freenode, repeat your answer in the channel so everyone can see it please
[18:01] <eugenix> clumor :ok
[18:02] <Jake556778> guys how to control which program is allowed to access the internet?
[18:02] <eugenix> i don't use a command but the gui
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> perfectjitesh: there is no file to send if you used pastie, only a text link
[18:02] <perfectjitesh> action parship : http://pastie.org/2197899
[18:02] <Jake556778> guys how to control which program is allowed to access the internet?
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> perfectjitesh: great. Easier isn't it. More secure too
[18:02] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: thats OK, using the GUI is still issuing commands.  What did you select on the GUI?
[18:02] <iceroot> !ugw | Jake556778
[18:02] <iceroot> !ufw | Jake556778
[18:03] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: restarted my system, and voila! sound is back!!! Thanks a lot.
[18:03] <perfectjitesh> actionparship : let me send again data is incomplete
[18:03] <cluMor_or_less> Jake556778: people might be able to give you a more direct answer if you asked about a specific program, assuming that you have a specific one in mind. :)
[18:03] <eugenix> clumor: the button hibernate where i can reboot, suspend etc...
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> Aahan: the guest or the host?
[18:04] <svip> I am using 8.10, but I wish to upgrade, but archive.ubuntu.com just returns 404.
[18:04] <oCean> !eol | svip
[18:04] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: both! Everything looks fine at the moment
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> !eol
[18:04] <Jake556778> why is it complicated in ubuntu
[18:04] <Jake556778> it's not user friendly
[18:04] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: ok, that sounds like the login screen, (xdmctl? GDM? )    is that button on te screen where you enter your username and password?
[18:04] <perfectjitesh> action parship http://pastie.org/2197927
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> Aahan: yeah crappy windows loves a reboot. It so shoddy
[18:04] <cluMor_or_less> *on the screen
[18:05] <BluesKaj> !8.10 | svip,
[18:05] <eugenix> clumor: no
[18:05] <eugenix> clumor: the button is on the desktop
[18:05] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: sorry to disappoint you, but I only restarted Ubuntu which is my guest system :D
[18:06] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: so this button shows up after you have logged in?
[18:06] <svip> oCean: Thank you.
[18:06] <ActionParsnip> Aahan: did you get an update to alsa recently?
[18:06] <svip> BluesKaj: And thank you as well.
[18:06] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: No
[18:07] <Aahan> ActionParsnip: Yeah maybe... I just reinstalled ubuntu today and there were lots of updates. it may be one of those.
[18:07] <perfectjitesh> Actionparship: just a brief history  I gave a fresh install on natty over natty , because i had installed gnome3 on natty and my ui had crashed
[18:07] <eugenix> clumor: yes this button on the panel with applications and other button suspend, reboot etc...
[18:07] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: OK I'llassume you said yes. Where on the desktop screen is the button located?
[18:07] <cluMor_or_less> ok on the panel. :_0
[18:07] <cluMor_or_less> :)
[18:07] <eugenix> clumor :)
[18:08] <cccaldas> hey guys
[18:08] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: are you using gnome or KDE?
[18:08] <cccaldas> where can i download the new ubuntu version ?
[18:08] <eugenix> clumor: gnome
[18:08] <perfectjitesh> Haycha :http://pastie.org/2197927
[18:09] <AndChat-> perfectjitesh: could try: sudo apt-get --reinstall install software-center
[18:09] <cccaldas> hello....
[18:09] <Pici> cccaldas: If you mean 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) it can be downlaoded from http://www.ubuntu.com
[18:09] <oCean> cccaldas: http://www.ubuntu.com/download
[18:09] <cccaldas> thanks
[18:09] <cccaldas> :)
[18:09] <perfectjitesh> andchat : let me try , thanks for suggestion
[18:10] <AndChat-> cccaldas: couldn't you find that online?
[18:10] <eugenix> cluMor_or_less: i'm using gnome
[18:10] <iceroot> i have mounted a drive with /etc/fstab but only root can edit files on it. what is the correct fstab-option so that all users can write on it?
[18:10] <cccaldas> i found, thankx
[18:11] <AndChat-> perfectjitesh: it's actionParsnip. My link died (i'm on a coach on my phone)
[18:11] <eugenix> cluMor_or_less: the exact version is 2.30
[18:11] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: OK, thats as far as i can go. I use KDE and i can't remember the structure of th gnome menus.  Here is what we have so far:  After logging in and selecting "hibernate" from the button on the panel, your screen darkens but the computer resumes immediately up and never goes to sleep/hibernate? Is this correct?
[18:11] <perfectjitesh> andchat @ http://pastie.org/2197953
[18:12] <eugenix> cluMor_or_less: exactly
[18:12] <eugenix> cluMor_or_less: yes
[18:12] <perfectjitesh> andchat @ unable to locate package software , unable to locate package center
[18:12] <cluMor_or_less> OK, Channel folks, can anyone (who knows Gnome and hibernate) help eugenix?
[18:12] <AndChat-> perfectjitesh: look at what you ran and compare it to what i suggested...
[18:13] <Aahan> Can anyone tell me how I can register a username? does that guarantee me that username on all IRCs or just freenode?
[18:13] <Pici> !register | Aahan (just freenode)
[18:13] <elevenpointfive> Just freenode.
[18:13] <roasted_> I'm looking to bond my network interfaces on my server here. I have 4 network cards. This server will handle tasks assigned to two different labs. I'm wondering A - how to even do it, and B - if it would be wiser to bond all 4 into 1, or make 2 pairs (1 for each lab). Any insight?
[18:13] <BluesKaj> perfectjitesh, try sudo apt=get install --reinstall softwarecenter
[18:14] <Aahan> Pici: Thanks, so it's of now use. :D
[18:14] <BluesKaj> apt-get
[18:14] <perfectjitesh> andchat : oops , corrected it
[18:14] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: by the way, did you check the log files for any messages regarding hibernation?
[18:14] <AndChat-> perfectjitesh: i give the EXACT command so you can copy and paste. If you botch a command and it damages your OS, the interpretter doesn't care. It will do as you say
[18:14] <Aahan> !register | Aahan
[18:15] <eugenix> cluMor: yes
[18:15] <perfectjitesh> andchat@ http://pastie.org/2197968
[18:15] <perfectjitesh> still the same problem :(
[18:15] <eugenix> cluMor: which file log can you suggest me ?
[18:15] <Name141> Hello, in removing nVidia or AMD/ATi drivers from Ubuntu is all you do is go in to additional drivers and remove it and restart?
[18:15] <eugenix> cluMor: to checking?
[18:16] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: do you know the directory where the log filea are kept?
[18:16] <Aahan> « /nick Aahan »
[18:16] <perfectjitesh> andchat@ my pc has crashed twice in 3 days , and i have given a fresh install twice
[18:16] <Aahan> Pici: where actually should i put that command?
[18:16] <eugenix> cluMor: yes /var/log
[18:16] <AndChat-> perfectjitesh: if you run: gksudo software-center     does it run ok?
[18:16] <Pici> Aahan: Here, but don;t put those «  »
[18:16] <eugenix> cluMor: pm-suspend.log
[18:16] <perfectjitesh> actually my pc did not crash it used to hang after checking battery state
[18:16] <Aahan> Pici: okay, thanks
[18:17] <Name141> Or is that more too it in need of switching card manufactors ? (I'm going from a nVidia to an ATi)
[18:17] <eugenix> cluMor: do you want see this file log?
[18:17] <AndChat-> Name141: sure. You will only need to restart the x server. No need to reboot
[18:17] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: sry had to tend to work....
[18:17] <Aahan> Pici: should I use < and > as in <nickname> ??
[18:17] <Pici> Aahan: no.
[18:18] <Name141> AndChat-: Well, I gotta take the cards out of this machine and swap'em man.. lol
[18:18] <cluMor_or_less> ok, in there, poke around, i suggest looking at files named messages, anything with acpi in the name, or that says power, or dmesg and look at the rest of the log file names and see what you think they mean. If you don't know what what of them is for, look at it and figure it out, use the apropos command to see if there is a manual page for it.
[18:18] <Aahan> Pici: got it. Sorry about my noob-ity! XD
[18:18] <vwoe> Does anyone here have any experience with uTouch? I kind of need some help.
[18:18] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: see my last ^^ up there
[18:18] <AndChat-> perfectjitesh: does my command work ok?
[18:18] <perfectjitesh> andchat@ yeah it is working fine gksudo command
[18:18] <Name141> AndChat-: I'm assuming I'll need to remove nvidia-tools ?
[18:19] <Aahan> Pici: /nick <nickname> (without < nd >) doesn't show me any notification
[18:19] <perfectjitesh> andchat@ yes ur commend gksudo works
[18:19] <AndChat-> perfectjitesh: ok the run: alacarte  and modify the menu item to use the new command
[18:19] <Pici> Aahan: Your nick is already Aahan.  Also, these sort of questions really belong in #freenode, #ubuntu is already rather busy with just Ubuntu stuff.
[18:19] <eugenix> cluMor: sorry i don't understand can you repeat i don't speak very well english
[18:20] <Aahan> Pici: okay, sorry
[18:20] <soulis77-SE> I must have messed up installing phpmyadmin. I can't find the subfolder under my var/www directory using ssh or in the browser. Using Ubuntu 10.04, Apache2, latest mysql and phpmyadmin.
[18:20] <soulis77-SE> Can I edit some file to set the correct path?
[18:20] <perfectjitesh> andchat@  sorry i do not know how to do that : please guide
[18:20] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: in that dir you named, go poke around.  (Means look at all the stuff/files in there)
[18:21] <nerdy_kid> anyone here have a working nvidia optimus?
[18:21] <perfectjitesh> haychan @ no problem boss
[18:21] <eugenix> cluMor: ah ok
[18:21] <pozic> Can I install Ubuntu over an existing Debian?
[18:21] <phax> Is GCC 4.6 available for 10.0.4 distro, if so how does one install it, it is not showing up under Package Manager
[18:21] <AndChat-> Name141: it should be removed for you but you can remove it if you like (assuming it isn't a dep)
[18:21] <Hachya> nerdy_kid: nope
[18:21] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: I suggest looking at files named messages, any file with acpi in the name, or power in the name, or dmesg
[18:21] <pfifo> phax, no, but you might be able to find a ppa on launchpad for 4.6
[18:21] <AndChat-> pozic: i'd recommend a clean install
[18:21] <perfectjitesh> andchat @maybe i got what u said
[18:22] <nerdy_kid> Hachya, do you have a non-working optimus?
[18:22] <eugenix> cluMor: i see in pm-suspend.log that all voice are success but there is this:   /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/49bluetooth hibernate hibernate:not applicable.
[18:22] <AndChat-> !ppa | phax
[18:22] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: ok, are you running any bluetooth devices?
[18:23] <eugenix> cluMor: no
[18:23] <Hachya> nerdy_kid: got no Optinus, that's all I meant
[18:23] <eugenix> cluMor: i can kill the process and try again
[18:23] <iceroot> what is the "lost+found" dir on ext? i though its only for reiser-fs. is it save to remove that dir? or is it needed for fscheck?
[18:23] <cluMor_or_less> eugenix: ok, is youe machine running programs that act as connectors, or managers for bluetooth devices?
[18:23] <cluMor_or_less> *your
[18:24] <perfectjitesh> andchat @ is this correct in command :/usr/bin/gksudo software-center %u
[18:24] <eugenix> cluMor: on the panel no
[18:24] <eugenix> cluMor: now i see the process background
[18:24] <AndChat-> perfectjitesh: alacarte is a command, run it and all will be clear. If you don't understand something try researching online yourself rather than asking. Makes you more autonomous
[18:24] <syadnom2> does anyone here know much about ubuntu cloud computer?  I'd like to chat about it vs. something like vmware or xenserver
[18:25] <AndChat-> perfectjitesh: don't really need the full path but looks ok to me
[18:25] <eugenix> cluMor: now i have killed the "bluetooth-applet"
[18:25] <Pici> syadnom2: #ubuntu-server or #ubuntu-cloud would be a better place to ask.
[18:25] <phax> thanks AndChat-
[18:25] <perfectjitesh> andchat@ alacrate opens up my main menu
[18:25] <eugenix> cluMor: but in this file there are other voice "not applicable"
[18:25] <AndChat-> Phax: np :-)
[18:25] <syadnom2> Pici, thanks, I didnt know those chans existed. later
[18:25] <eugenix> cluMor: /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/95led
[18:26] <eugenix> cluMor: /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/95led
[18:26] <eugenix> cluMor: /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/95led
[18:26] <FloodBot1> eugenix: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:26] <pfifo> iceroot, you need lost+found on ext
[18:26] <perfectjitesh> andchat@ i am really sorry in asking silly questions , actually i have done tons of research online but i still cannot fix my pc : please if u can guide me a bit more  it will be a big help
[18:27] <eugenix> cluMor: ..../90clock
[18:29] <Name141> Well that was easy.  No need for some kind of "driver sweeper" to get the last little bits like in Windows hanging around that'd cause hangups later?
[18:29] <perfectjitesh> andchat@ done it is working
[18:29] <iceroot> is it save to change the uid in /etc/passwd? i am using nfs on my lan, same username different uids, so i thought i can use the same uid on all systems so that i can use nfsv3 without the problem of the wrong owner/unkown uid
[18:29] <rosco_y> I'm looking for a notebook that I've seen before: it was real big on linking from topic to topic like wikipedia, does anyone know what I'm looking for?
[18:29] <kafitz> #one-agency
[18:29] <nunizacu> so, any ansawer to my problem?
[18:30] <BajK> what do I need to do to be able to run skype more than once?
[18:30] <pfifo> iceroot, I think you nee to use `usermod` or `useradd to do it properly
[18:30] <nunizacu> i got like 40 box of stuff to catalogue somehow
[18:30] <BajK> if I freshly install it it works
[18:30] <BajK> but then i always get "Memory Access Violation"
[18:30] <BajK> and thats all
[18:30] <Hachya> BajK: what u mean more than once?
[18:30] <BajK> more than once
[18:31] <BajK> i. e. if I close it
[18:31] <BajK> then I want to be able to start it again
[18:31] <Hachya> BajK: ah....hmm....
[18:31] <rosco_y> Sounds like it doesn't support multiple instances--
[18:31] <BajK> Hachya: friend of mine has the same problem
[18:31] <Viper_Scull> check if it's still running...
[18:31] <BajK> rosco_y: that's not what I am talking about
[18:31] <Hachya> BajK: I meant if u get an error, or anything..
[18:31] <Viper_Scull> ps -ef | grep skype
[18:31] <BajK> Hachya: as I said "Memory Access Violation"
[18:31] <roasted_> I'm looking to bond my network interfaces on my server here. I have 4 network cards. This server will handle tasks assigned to two different labs. I'm wondering A - how to even do it, and B - if it would be wiser to bond all 4 into 1, or make 2 pairs (1 for each lab). Any insight?
[18:31] <iceroot> pfifo: yes, but are there any problems to face after changing the uid and a reboot?
[18:31] <BajK> rosco_y: "more than once" not "more than once simultaneously" :
[18:31] <Viper_Scull> BajK: check my message
[18:32] <perfectjitesh> andchat@thank a ton
[18:32] <rosco_y> oh
[18:32] <rosco_y> strange
[18:32] <Hachya> BajK: run the command Viper just sent u first, and tell output
[18:32] <rosco_y> doesn't completely shut down?
[18:32] <rosco_y> sudo killall -9 skype ?
[18:32] <BajK> Hachya: ?
[18:32] <Viper_Scull> BajK: ps -ef | grep skype
[18:32] <perfectjitesh> andchat ?
[18:32] <Hachya> BajK: Viper_Scull: ps -ef | grep skype
[18:32] <BajK> rosco_y: I had my computer restarted
[18:33] <pfifo> iceroot, your #1 problem and the only one I can think of is that the users files may show the old UID, but a sudo chown on a case by case basis fixes that
[18:33] <rosco_y> BajK: too weird
[18:33] <BajK> Hachya: weird. if I restart my computer it doesnt work anymore, but if I just close it, it keeps working
[18:33] <BajK> till I restart my pc
[18:33] <rosco_y> can you send a note to skype?
[18:34] <rosco_y> BajK: maybe it's leaving a lock file around...
[18:34] <rosco_y> (or something like that....
[18:34] <iceroot> pfifo: ah yes you are right, the files contains the uid and not the username. the username is read from /etc/passwd to translate the uid
[18:34] <rosco_y> is it in  your startup processes?
[18:34] <nunizacu> thank you very much for your time ...
[18:34] <BajK> rosco_y: no it is not and why should it then give a MAV? why not say "already running"?
[18:35] <pfifo> iceroot, everythings a number
[18:35] <rosco_y> BajK: right, that's why a lock-file doesn't explain it, but it's persistant somehow
[18:35] <BajK> rosco_y: through a computer restart? o.O
[18:36] <rosco_y> BajK: that's why I thought of looking for a file
[18:36] <BajK> but MAV looks like a different problem. when I completely purge it and its dependencies and reinstall it, it works
[18:36] <rosco_y> or a setting in a file
[18:36] <tuggle> hi, got two issues: 1. I want firefox to be able to use mms:// links on ubuntu 11.04, however, the usual network.**app.mms ..external.mms, ..expose.mms configuration does not work. I still get a warning that FF does not know how to open the link. w32codecs and totem with plugins are installed
[18:36] <BajK> so I did sudo apt-get purge skype && sudo apt-get --purge autoremove && sudo dpkg -i ~/Downloads/*skype*.deb && skype :D that should do it for now
[18:36] <perfectjitesh> hachya: have followed the full guides online to setup android sdk and ecliips and how to make them work together , but i still cannot see my device (htc desire)
[18:36] <r1za> join/ #ubuntu-ru
[18:36] <nunizacu> tuggle i got one issue and no reply in hour

[18:37] <osse> I'm having trouble watching YouTube videos in fullscreen. Playback works great, but whenever I go fullscreen everything is black. I can see the controls and hear the sound, even the "Press Esc to..." message but not the video itself. Has anyone else experienced this?
 tnks
[18:38] <rosco_y> osse: try alt+tab
[18:38] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: I may not be of much help with that, what is not working, is the device found at all?
[18:38] <pfifo> osse, try right clicking on the video and in settings, disable hardware accelration
[18:38] <rosco_y> sometimes it puts the fullscreen video behind your browser
[18:38] <Hachya> which is a real pain for porn...
[18:38] <roasted_> I installed 10.04 on a server with hardware raid. now when I boot up, I MUST have my flash drive plugged in that I installed Ubuntu from or it wont boot. Did my boot partition somehow get tossed on the flash drive, even though I didnt select it to when I went into manual partition mode?
[18:38] <iceroot> pfifo: thx after changing the uid on all machines to the same value, nfs is working great
[18:38] <rosco_y> also could minimize browser
[18:38] <Hachya> :D
[18:39] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ yes not in sdk , but in general as a stirage device it does
[18:39] <oCean> Hachya: keep this channel family-friendly please
[18:40] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: I forget, but don't you have to add the device in the sdk...
[18:40] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: somehow, not sure....
[18:40] <perfectjitesh> hachya@  no problem ,leave that i will  try to figure it out
[18:41] <iceroot> pfifo: ah one nfs-option is to fake the uid....
[18:41] <osse> pfifo, that fixed it! Maybe this fixes the glitches I've seen in Flash animation on other sites as well? We'll see. Thanks!
[18:41] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: sry couldn't be much help on that! :D
[18:41] <Hachya> osse: entirely possible
[18:41] <pfifo> iceroot, yeah that works too, there also ldap as a 3rd option
[18:42] <iceroot> pfifo: yes ldap or cifs
[18:42] <iceroot> pfifo: or both
[18:43] <pfifo> is there a required ftp package that gets installed in 10.04 11.04 and 11.10 by default?
[18:44] <roasted_> I installed 10.04 on a server with hardware raid. now when I boot up, I MUST have my flash drive plugged in that I installed Ubuntu from or it wont boot. Did my boot partition somehow get tossed on the flash drive, even though I didnt select it to when I went into manual partition mode?
[18:44] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ just tell  me if my pc crashes : like ubuntu loads from boot loader , but fails to load into unity , and i am able to start my pc with startx , what commands should i use to get it working again : if even after reinstalling unity2d it does not work
[18:44] <iceroot> roasted_: installed grub on the flash-drive i guess
[18:44] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ please advise me on this
[18:44] <syadnom2> roasted_, probably, just install grub on the boot drive you want
[18:44] <iceroot> roasted_: install grub on your harddisc, that should fix it
[18:45] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ my pc has crashed 2 in 3 dyas , i cannot see it crash again
[18:45] <Hachya> what runlevel is currently set right now?
[18:45] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: perfectjitesh
[18:45] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: sorry, what runlevel is currently set right now?
[18:45] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ runlevel means
[18:45] <roasted_> iceroot, ahhh and I can do that from the liveusb.... I remember saving that link thankfully!
[18:46] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: so, when you boot, it doesn't go to X right?
[18:46] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: text prompt?
[18:46] <perfectjitesh> u mean grub version
[18:46] <perfectjitesh> i am using a dual boot with windows 7 and ubutnu 11.04
[18:47] <Hachya> perfectjitesh, NO: you say it crashes, but does it not get to a log in screen of some sort? text mode login?
[18:47] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: I believe your runlevel has changed.... runlevel is what tells your machine to go to Text Mode, no GUI, or single user, with GUI, etc.....
[18:48] <perfectjitesh> hachya @ it hangs at checknig battery state
[18:48] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ then i use recovery mode
[18:48] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: in the boot process? but didn't you say it works when you type in startx?
[18:48] <perfectjitesh> hacya@  yup it does
[18:49] <perfectjitesh> when i use startx in command propmt
[18:49] <perfectjitesh> then it starts in rooot
[18:49] <Saraveramentever> Hello
[18:49] <Saraveramentever> startx
[18:49] <Saraveramentever> san vero?
[18:49] <Hachya> perfectjitesh...soo then it DOESN'T hang on the boot process?
[18:49] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: are you saying each time you boot up it asks to "recover"
[18:50] <Hachya> Saraveramentever: english
[18:50] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ no not that
[18:50] <Saraveramentever> !list
[18:50] <Saraveramentever> excuse me
[18:50] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ wait a min : i will tell u exaclty what is happening
[18:50] <Hachya> tha't'd be great
[18:51] <Saraveramentever> I've no idea of how this works
[18:51] <Saraveramentever> can some1 explain me?
[18:51] <Pici> Saraveramentever: This is the support channel for Ubuntu Linux.
[18:51] <Pici> Saraveramentever: If you have a question, ask, otherwise, you may be interested in #ubuntu-offtopic
[18:51] <roasted_> iceroot, I see why it happened. I have hardware raid on this server, and my disk comes up as /dev/ccsis/d0g0p5 or something, and /dev/sda1 was my flash drive. since it was writeable, ubuntu put grub there. I see I see...............
[18:52] <Saraveramentever> oh bunnò
[18:52] <Pici> Saraveramentever: Or #ubuntu-it
[18:52] <iceroot> roasted_: normally you can choose where to install grub, default should be sda
[18:52] <BluesKaj> I guess ubuntu looks like music to Italian irc users , 99% of those who do !list have IPs in Italy :)
[18:53] <roasted_> iceroot, maybe I missed that option. :(
[18:53] <roasted_> iceroot, or better yet maybe next time I should just create a boot partition.
[18:53] <iceroot> roasted_: i am missing that too very often :)

[19:09] <roasted_> which edition of ubuntu was the first to come with grub2? was it 9.04?
[19:09] <Pici> roasted_: 9.10
[19:09] <Starminn> roasted_: 9.10
[19:10] <nightrid3r> Ramosa vista, win7 and ubuntu as last one
[19:10] <Starminn> How do I set Opera as the default web browser? I have ti set in Preferred Applications, but it still uses my old one.
[19:10] <Ramosa> thanks
[19:11] <Aple> wtf anki fatal error
[19:11] <eks> do you know what code is to join undernet?
[19:11] <jnlsnl_> I don't remember if grub is enabled by default, or if i disabled it, but how do i get it to show on boot again? ;)
[19:11] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: firstly, at that prompt where you put startx, if you don't want to start X as root, use "logout" then log in with your ID and password....that will keep it from being on the root account
[19:11] <args0> 2
[19:12] <oCean> perfectjitesh: it is important that you run a memtest first. So you know you don't have defective ram
[19:12] <IdleOne> eks, /server irc.under.net
[19:12] <eks> thank
[19:12] <perfectjitesh> ocean@ my windows7 works fne i am on a dual boot , and yes i have done memory test
[19:13] <perfectjitesh> ocean @http://pastie.org/2198190 it is not a complete crash
[19:13] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: the battery thing, what prompted that, or was this from install?
[19:14] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ when i start ubuntu normally , not when i install
[19:14] <BluesKaj> a cli command for a temporary touchpad disable ?
[19:14] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ no problem when i give a fresh install
[19:14] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: not what I asked, what I asked was when the battery issue first appeared...?
[19:15] <perfectjitesh> hachya@2 days  after installing gnome3
[19:15] <perfectjitesh> hachya @ point no 3) in http://pastie.org/2198190
[19:16] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: any changes ON the day this started occurring?
[19:16] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: I c
[19:17] <perfectjitesh> hachya @ on the day of occurence i replaced broken packages and not required packages using synaptic package manager at thta i was on gnome 3
[19:17] <perfectjitesh> and some minor changes to ubuntu tweak
[19:17] <aljosa> anybody knows why in 11.04 when i enter $PWD<tab> i get \$PWD in bash? how can i make it expand $PWD normally?
[19:18] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: yeah, umm when someone says "changes" at all, that implies something was removed....and since a problem started occurring after making such modifications, it's pretty obvious that something that was required was removed or changed....
[19:19] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: what video card are you running?
[19:19] <perfectjitesh> hachya@  no videocard
[19:19] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: umm what?
[19:20] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: well, laptop then right?
[19:20] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ i use no graphic card , i have a desktop .
[19:20] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: yes, which card is it that the monitor plugs into....
[19:21] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: you do know what I mean by video/graphics card correct?
[19:21] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ can u give me a command to check that
[19:22] <roasted_> Now why in the world at the menu screen to install Ubuntu would I be able to navigate up and down but "enter" does not work. Holy frustrating.
[19:22] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ i have no graphic card (neither nvidia nor ati) i use my pc without a graphic card
[19:22] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: lspci -v SHOULD work
[19:22] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: what the fuck....you have a monitor right?
[19:23] <Pici> Hachya: Mind the language please.
[19:23] <oCean> Hachya: control your language please
[19:23] <Hachya> SORRY! about the language...
[19:23] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: do you use a monitor right now?
[19:24] <perfectjitesh> http://pastie.org/2198253
[19:24] <dtcrshr> how do i check how much fisical ram do i have?

[19:24] <Pici> dtcrshr: free -m
[19:24] <TheDadLife> hes using an onboard vid card
[19:24] <TheDadLife> some people use those :-p
[19:24] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: you are running an integrated intel chip
[19:25] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: Intel Corporation 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller
[19:25] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ yup
[19:25] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: that is your video card...
[19:25] <solod304> hi in the latest ubuntu i go to "System Settings" and there is an icon for "Main Menu". I can edit the main menu, but how do i access the main menu?
[19:25] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ i meant that is in the mother board
[19:26] <DivineEntity> whats wrong with the intel chip ? intel chips are well supported
[19:26] <soulnafe1n> is this the official ubuntu channel?
[19:26] <Pici> soulnafe1n: Yes it is.
[19:26] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: one sec...
[19:26] <DivineEntity> soulnafe1n: ubuntu ?  this is the VAX channel ...
[19:27] <DivineEntity> we run vms here
[19:27] <Hachya> DivineEntity: duuude XD
[19:27] <edisto> are there any gadgets for ubuntu like windows that can float like cpu core usage, and printer drag and drop print box , etc
[19:27] <Pici> soulnafe1n: Don't mind him.  Yes, this is the official Ubuntu support channel.  If you have a question just ask.
[19:27] <perfectjitesh> divine entity @ :http://pastie.org/2198190  this defines
[19:27] <Pici> edisto: There are screenlets, and KDE has a number of plasma widgets.
[19:27] <jnlsnl_> Hey guys im having some issues with bad sectors, and now i have a brand new harddisk with ubuntu installed plugged into my pc through usb2 (i want to transferrer stuff from my old drive), i have set the boot order to usb > harddisk , but It still boot ubuntu on my old disk :S
[19:28] <edisto> thanks pici
[19:28] <Hachya> DivineEntity: I didn't have any idea WHAT card was in there, and then he told me he didn't have a video card XD so I was a bit confused, as the issue involves running X
[19:29] <rogerio> boa tarde coloquei um repositorio  e agora esta dando este erro  "E:Tipo 'ain' não é conhecido na linha 1 na lista de fontes /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kiwixteam-ppa-natty.list' "
[19:29] <Pici> !br | rogerio
[19:30] <Hachya> perfectjitesh : find the file: /etc/inittab, open it, and find a line that looks like this: "id:3:initdefault:" and tell me the number it has in that spot
[19:30] <unop> I'd be surprised if you found that file at all.
[19:31] <perfectjitesh> hachya & divineentity@  my ubuntu could not lad with startx , after i had given a fresh install  , this time i was just installing andoid sdl and ecllipse , while it was downloading some files from net , and gave it a urgent shutdown
[19:31] <Pici> Hachya: Ubuntu doesn't have an /etc/inittab
[19:31] <Pici> !upstart | Hachya
[19:31] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: SONUVA XD
[19:31] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: I'm retarded...yea...
[19:32] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ their is a folder /etc/init
[19:32] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: no...don't touch
[19:32] <solod304> How do i drag workspace switcher into the trash?
[19:33] <perfectjitesh> @hachya no folder like /etc/inittab
[19:33] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: forget I said anything about that...
[19:34] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: gimme a sec
[19:34] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ my pc has worked fine on all ubuntu 10.04, 10.10 ,11.04 for about 14 months without a problem should be no issues with graphics,
[19:35] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ yes okay
[19:35] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: well, the issue is that it won't continue to X, and that is what I'm figuring out now
[19:36] <cemycc> Is someone playing Lineage 2 on Ubuntu with ATI Radeon video card ? I know that ATI cards have some problems at games on wine...
[19:37] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: but it stalls on battery..... which is what stumps me...
[19:37] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ x means root
[19:37] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: was it yours that doesn't load the software update window either?
[19:37] <Wanderer> Anyone know how to configure a lsi Megaraid sas 9260 on a new intall with Natty?
[19:38] <Wanderer> Can't find/configure the raid from the install disk or find tools I can put on a usb drive
[19:38] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ yes that was mine
[19:38] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: NO X means X which is X Windows, as in any gui you're loading....whether KDE GNOME, Fluxbox, whatever
[19:38] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ i am on unity now
[19:39] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: I understand that, those were just examples...
[19:39] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ neither was my ubuntu softare center nor update manager
[19:40] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: software center too? did it even show the contents of the window
[19:40] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: ?
[19:41] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: almost thinking that the version of SW center/SW update that's on your machine won't work with Unity.... can you run updates from the command line?
[19:42] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ it started and gave a blank screen: then i used command :sduko  update manager, now it works fine . yes i can run updates
[19:43] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ i am using unity from the day of launch of natty no problem since the last week after installing gnome 3, but after a fresh installing of natty i think i should not matter what i diid eralier ? suggest
[19:44] <qin> !gnome3 | perfectjitesh
[19:45] <themisfit> omg caps scury
[19:45] <themisfit> !caps | ubottu
[19:45] <Lunar_Lamp> With unity, is there an equivalent to "killall gnome-panel" for when the panels go all screwy?
[19:45] <qin> themisfit: hm?
[19:45] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: he's kinda right, and it's been an issue for a while......and at this point, the only thing I could recommend would be changing the video driver for your card.....
[19:46] <Duka_Aprendiz> Alguem sabe me dizer qual o cmd para dar permissao na pasta www nas sub-pastas e arquivos permitir leitura e escrita?
[19:46] <TheDadLife> he doesnt have a card though?
[19:46] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: it's the driver that controls that battery check...
[19:46] <Hachya> TheDadLife: onboard intel
[19:46] <Hachya> TheDadLife: he didn't know that that still is a vid card
[19:47] <qin> Lunar_Lamp: Propably: unity --replace, but hard to say what will be effect
[19:47] <perfectjitesh> yes i installed gnome3 but after that a fresh installation of natty , using batty from lauunch date no problem , window 7 works fine . i hope it does not crash again : please god
[19:47] <themisfit> Duka, #ubuntu-br for portuguese
[19:47] <themisfit> doh
[19:47] <Lunar_Lamp> qin: looks like it would work in some circumstance, but didn't fix what I wanted unfortunately!
[19:48] <qin> Lunar_Lamp: Dunno, I am on Lucid
[19:48] <roasted_> So, I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my server. However... when I select install, NOTHING happens. This server only has USB ports, so Ican only use USB keyboards. I have NO clue how I can get this darn server to realize I'm pressing enter to install! Any ideas?
[19:48] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ i will replace on experimental basis and see if it works fine , for the moment it is
[19:48] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ at the moment i am using the old one only
[19:48] <Hachya> perfectjitesh sounds good
[19:49] <qin> roasted_: How do you sec
[19:49] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: it's kind of been a pain ever since its inception...
[19:49] <qin> *select?
[19:49] <Harzilein> hi
[19:49] <roasted_> qin, well I'm trying to press enter, but it's like it's dead.
[19:50] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ what has been the pain ?
[19:50] <roasted_> qin, I can navigate up and down though and highlight other options. I just cant SELECT it. :
[19:50] <roasted_> :(
[19:50] <qin> roasted_: Does numLock work?
[19:50] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: UNITY, ever since they started using it, in beta, and now even in live distro
[19:50] <roasted_> yes qin
[19:51] <qin> roasted_: And enter on numpad?
[19:51] <roasted_> qin nothing
[19:51] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ if it crashes what do u suggest me moving back to 10.10 , will it be safe
[19:51] <qin> roasted_: or better can you access bios
[19:51] <roasted_> qin yes
[19:51] <TheDadLife> Roasted theres a bios setting for enabling USB
[19:52] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: not with unity..
[19:52] <roasted_> TheDadLife, then why does USB work except for hitting enter?
[19:52] <Harzilein> looks like the people who maintain our production server only _upgraded_ (w/o dist-upgrade) from hardy to lucid. i can't really change that right now, but i need to install an upstart 0.3 config for cron. as upstart 0.3 would not be able to determine the pid of forked/daemonized jobs i'm considering running cron -f. do you think this should work? (http://paste.debian.net/122594/)
[19:53] <Harzilein> (without making upstart block or something)
[19:53] <qin> roasted_: Oh, thats cool, missing option?
[19:53] <Harzilein> i'm fearing i have to read the upstart 0.3 code to be sure :/
[19:53] <Hachya> roasted_: depends on when ur hitting it in the boot/post process
[19:53] <roasted_> qin, what option?
[19:54] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ sorry i did not get u :  i wanted to ask if i have the same problem again : should i switch to ubuntu 10.10 will that be safe
[19:54] <roasted_> Hachya, I'm AT the ubuntu screen where it says install, try out, memtest, check cd, etc.
[19:54] <roasted_> Hachya, it's not about "when I hit it." I'm already there in this case. I just can't hit enter to select my highlighted option.
[19:54] <perfectjitesh> suggest me android app : so that i can log in to this chat from my mobile
[19:54] <lintux> on somethings the tilde key will close the program in the event of a crash but it doesn't work on all open programs i have open
[19:54] <Harzilein> anyone?
[19:54] <qin> roasted_: Is it Desktop or Server version?
[19:54] <TheDadLife> server
[19:55] <Hachya> roasted_, yeah in this case the USB may not be enabled in BIOS, which keeps 'Nix from detecting on boot...
[19:55] <roasted_> qin, desktop, Edubuntu 10.04
[19:55] <Pici> Harzilein: I'm looking, but #ubuntu-server or even #upstart might be better places to ask.
[19:55] <Hachya> roasted_: had same problem with mine a while back
[19:55] <qin> roasted_: Did you try mouse click?
[19:55] <Pici> Harzilein: I'm not too familiar with 0.3 upstart syntax myself though.
[19:55] <Harzilein> pici: thanks
[19:55] <roasted_> Hachya, USB is enabled. I'm AT the screen. I booted to USB just fine. This happens whether Im using a live USB flash drive or a live CD.
[19:55] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: it will be safe so long as you do NOT use Unity
[19:55] <roasted_> Hachya, I. just. cant. select. anything.
[19:55] <roasted_> I'm THERE - enter is just a dead key it seems.
[19:56] <Hachya> roasted_: I thought this was about a keyboard not working?
[19:56] <roasted_> Hachya, it is....
[19:56] <roasted_> Hachya, I cannot select enter.
[19:56] <qin> roasted_: m. o. u. s. e.
[19:56] <TheDadLife> the enter key isnt regestering.
[19:56] <roasted_> well, I can, but I cant, its strange
[19:56] <perfectjitesh> hachya@ thanks a ton for the inputs ,
[19:56] <Hachya> roasted_: MOUSE button
[19:56] <roasted_> at the language screen, enter registers. but at anything else below, it doesnt
[19:56] <Hachya> perfectjitesh: no prob
[19:56] <roasted_> does nohting
[19:56] <qin> roasted_: Or <Space>
[19:56] <roasted_> nothing
[19:56] <roasted_> tried it all
[19:57] <Hachya> roasted_: did u already select keyboard mapping?
[19:57] <roasted_> Hachya, keyboard mapping? that's done in the installation.
[19:57] <roasted_> I'm trying to get to the installation.
[19:57] <RyanP> Is it safe to just rm files from ~/.local/share/Trash, or is there additional metadata kept somewhere?
[19:57] <qin> roasted_: Alt-Ctrl-F1, login in and test <enter>
[19:58] <Hachya> roasted_: this ^^^
[19:58] <roasted_> qin, does nothing
[19:58] <roasted_> Im going to grab another keyboard to see...
[19:58] <perfectjitesh>  suggest me android app : so that i can log in to this chat from my mobile
[19:58] <Dr_Willis> perfectjitesh,  theres numerous irc clients for android
[19:59] <Dr_Willis> perfectjitesh,  or use a ssh client, ssh to a linux box. run irssi, or weechat
[19:59] <qin> roasted_: right, you are on in live session, sorry. Still, is it any pain to use mouse?
[19:59] <perfectjitesh> thanks dr_willis
[20:00] <KindWord> looking forward to new ubuntu version, that has thunderbird I heard :)
[20:01] <roasted_> qin, the mouse isnt usable.
[20:01] <roasted_> qin, I'm at the main screen where I boot.
[20:01] <roasted_> qin, http://lh5.ggpht.com/_FJH0hYZmVtc/S6-Iq84iN1I/AAAAAAAAHAM/HKiM8R4QP00/image_thumb8.png
[20:01] <roasted_> there, except ubuntu
[20:02] <roasted_> I have no mouse. theres never been the ability to use a mouse there.
[20:02] <roasted_> this is by far the most ridiculous problem IVe ever had on linux
[20:02] <SubNormal2> "mount: /dev/sda already mounted or /home/playman/newdisk busy" how can I know that I was successful in mounting my HDD?
[20:02] <roasted_> why can I not select enter?!
[20:02] <qin> roasted_: F3 ?
[20:03] <roasted_> qin, F keys work, just not in conjunction with ALT and CTRL
[20:03] <qin> roasted_: thats keymap - F3
[20:03] <m4dc0d3r> ubuntu just froze while using shotwell, then teamviewer crashed, and then typing was impossible (menu bar was selected and you typed there sort of like holding Alt). any ideas?
[20:03] <roasted_> qin, what about it
[20:04] <roasted_> none of the US options work fo rme
[20:05] <m4dc0d3r> could someone help me?
[20:05] <edbian> m4dc0d3r: With what?
[20:05] <m4dc0d3r> ubuntu just froze while using shotwell, then teamviewer crashed, and then typing was impossible (menu bar was selected and you typed there sort of like holding Alt). any ideas?
[20:05] <m4dc0d3r> how do i deal with that?
[20:05] <m4dc0d3r> the pc is my uncle's
[20:05] <davidang_> I need some critiques: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ss4JtiP7l30
[20:06] <edbian> m4dc0d3r: How long have you ben having this problems?
[20:06] <m4dc0d3r> uncle just called me that his pc froze
[20:06] <edbian> davidang_: totally offtopic
[20:06] <m4dc0d3r> while using shotwell
[20:06] <SubNormal2> can some one help me with mounting my secondary HDD?
[20:06] <m4dc0d3r> then he rebooted
[20:06] <m4dc0d3r> and started teamviewer
[20:06] <edbian> m4dc0d3r: So this happened once?  Hong long has the computer had Ubuntu on it?
[20:06] <Dr_Willis> !mount | SubNormal2
[20:06] <davidang_> oh this is ubuntu
[20:06] <m4dc0d3r> edbian: new machine
[20:06] <davidang_> hehe
[20:06] <davidang_> not filmmaking
[20:06] <edbian> davidang_: :)
[20:06] <m4dc0d3r> very new
[20:07] <m4dc0d3r> he used it for the 3rd time
[20:07] <qin> roasted_: F4 what modes there are?
[20:07] <roasted_> qin, sec, I just rebooted it out of frustration. :D
[20:07] <edbian> m4dc0d3r: How long has he been experiencing this issue?
[20:07] <m4dc0d3r> my first idea for the freeze was that he ran out of ram without having a swap
[20:07] <m4dc0d3r> edbian: just now
[20:07] <m4dc0d3r> but it will probably come back
[20:07] <duvel> Hi, I'm trying to set up tunnelbroker IPv6 tunnel on my box. This is the error I get when I run sudo ifup he-ipv6:
[20:07] <duvel> duvel@yacht-master:~$ sudo ifup he-ipv6
[20:07] <duvel> ioctl: No buffer space available
[20:07] <duvel> Failed to bring up he-ipv6.
[20:07] <duvel> Can anyone help ?
[20:07] <SubNormal2> Dr_Willis ubottu I have the mount command, but I get this error "mount: /dev/sda already mounted or /home/playman/newdisk busy"
[20:07] <FloodBot1> duvel: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:07] <m4dc0d3r> so i created a swap
[20:07] <m4dc0d3r> but i still gotta put it in fstab
[20:08] <edbian> m4dc0d3r: You didn't have swap at all?
[20:08] <m4dc0d3r> nope
[20:08] <edbian> m4dc0d3r: Make a swap partition.
[20:08] <duvel> Hi, I'm trying to set up tunnelbroker IPv6 tunnel on my box. This is the error I get when I run sudo ifup he-ipv6: http://paste.ubuntu.com/642137/
[20:08] <roasted_> qin, what's frustrating is gparted live doesn't have this issue. :(
[20:08] <m4dc0d3r> and for the typing bug?
[20:08] <m4dc0d3r> its like typing in the menu bar
[20:08] <roasted_> qin, F4 has normal and use driver update disc. that sit
[20:08] <m4dc0d3r> top of the screen in case of unity
[20:09] <RyanP> Is it safe to just rm files from ~/.local/share/Trash, or is there additional metadata kept somewhere?
[20:09] <m4dc0d3r> and it started selecting items from that bar once i typed
[20:09] <Hachya> RyanP: should be fine..
[20:09] <m4dc0d3r> note that this started to occur while using teamviewer
[20:09] <qin> roasted_: Choose Normal and hit <Enter>
[20:09] <m4dc0d3r> and continued when teamviewer was closed
[20:09] <qin> roasted_: Or is it number menu?
[20:09] <roasted_> qin, no number. and normal was already selected. I reselected, no dice.
[20:10] <m4dc0d3r> oh and it started after opening the terminal
[20:10] <RyanP> Hachya: Ok thanks.
[20:11] <guntbert> !enter | m4dc0d3r
[20:11] <m4dc0d3r> guntbert: would you prefer a 500+ character message?
[20:12] <Dr_Willis> SubNormal2,   check output of mount.. see qwhats mounted where.
[20:13] <roasted_> qin, seems as if my md5 hashes are off
[20:13] <bullgard4> What is the filename of my personal gpg keyring?
[20:13] <guntbert> m4dc0d3r: no, but the last 6 statements were difficult to read and I could not find out to whom you were talking - so please adhere to the customs here
[20:13] <m4dc0d3r> sorry
[20:13] <christina_> i have xubuntu (sda1)installed  grub-mkconfig recognizes also lubuntu on sda3 and lubuntu on sda4 now i want to remove xubuntu but both lubuntu doesn't find with 30_os_prober any other installations
[20:13] <roasted_> that siad, Im out of here. I'll make a new install CD at home. thanks qin!
[20:14] <bullgard4> RyanP: I do not recommend that. Use Nautilus to empty a Trash.
[20:14] <qin> Roasted: Wait...
[20:16] <RyanP> bullgard4: I'm adminning multiuser systems. People are moving stuff into the trash and leaving it. I'd like to automate removal of files older than 30 days from the trash.
[20:17] <SubNormal2> Dr_Willis thanks for that, found out that somehow the HDD was mounted at another location then intended
[20:17] <guntbert> bullgard4: why?
[20:17] <bullgard4> RyanP: I do not know a safe way to accomplish your task using a command-line command.
[20:17] <bullgard4> guntbert: "[22:17]	<guntbert>	bullgard4: why?" What do you refer to?
[20:18] <guntbert> bullgard4: what would be the trouble with RyanP's method?
[20:19] <player3> So many channels on this network, yet none of them has anything about the Office tool Word for Windows
[20:19] <Dr_Willis> guess you could point everyones trask to be some where in /tmp/ but that could be a security issue.
[20:19] <qin> player3: What tool?
[20:20] <guntbert> player3: what has that to do with ubuntu support?
[20:20] <qin> *a
[20:20] <BluesKaj> player3, ask in ##windows
[20:20] <RyanP> bullgard4: What do you think the downsides of rming files from the Trash directory are?
[20:20] <Dr_Willis> RyanP,  ive never seen any issues with it.. but i tend to only do it on flash drives.
[20:21] <player3> thanks, BluesKaj
[20:21] <Dr_Willis> its really annoying how Nautiuls keeps sticking in trash on my cellphone and other flash drives.
[20:22] <ron34563654> hi, does the jabra skype headset can work?
[20:22] <RyanP> Dr_Willis: Yes. The guy I share an office with said he thought there might be some metadata. Google didn't reveal anything. And yeah, getting .local directories everywhere can be annoying.
[20:22] <Surendil> see you later people!!!
[20:24] <Kaa27> I was wondering if anyone has built E17 on their Ubuntu??  would like to ask you a ?
[20:24] <guntbert> RyanP: I've never seen any documentation about "meta-data" regarding trash (although I have to admit i didn't search thoroughly :-))
[20:24] <qin> Kaa27: e17 is in repos, as far as I know
[20:24] <RyanP> guntbert: Thanks.
[20:25] <qin> Kaa27: Or PPA
[20:25] <Kaa27> qin: yes I know ... I like to build it with the latest updates
[20:26] <guntbert> RyanP: and if there were some danger !trash would mention it :)
[20:26] <wolfreak> Hai guise, um does anyone here use Conky with Compiz on 11.04 (ubuntu classic)?
[20:26] <Kaa27> qin: The lib files changed from the later version of Ubuntu to the latest version
[20:27] <pornoninja> OQ
[20:27] <pornoninja> 2
[20:27] <ron34563654> hi, does the jabra skype headset can work?
[20:27] <wolfreak> lol nice name pornoninja
[20:28] <guntbert> wolfreak: not at all! refrain from such comments please
[20:28] <ron34563654> ive trouble with irc the chat terribly delayed
[20:28] <qin> Kaa27: e17 build, would be hell of the task
[20:28] <pornoninja> ;]
[20:28] <Kaa27> qin: it's fun
[20:28] <dzup> hola
[20:29] <wolfreak> guntbert: lolwut? I'm referring to "pornoninja"'s name, unless you mean saying 11.04 classic is a offensive comment
[20:29] <vish> pornoninja: can you change your nick to something more family friendly?
[20:29] <pornoninja> do i have to?
[20:29] <vish> !guidelines > pornoninja
[20:29] <Dr_Willis> RyanP,  theres metadata files in .trash also..
[20:29] <guntbert> wolfreak: that was what I was talking about, there is nothing "cool" in that nick
[20:29] <wolfreak> i wouldn't mess with the mods, mate. They got that hammer.
[20:30] <wolfreak> guntbert: ooohhh yes there is
[20:30] <wolfreak> but besides a simple controversial name, I didn't come here to troll.. Does anyone have conky with compiz?
[20:30] <MACscr> anyone found their system to crash multiple times a day now when using the newest chromiun?
[20:30] <MACscr> er, chromium
[20:30] <Hachya> what is this WoW Trade chat? XD
[20:30] <vish> candyninja: thx
[20:30] <Dr_Willis> wolfreak,  conky should work fine with compiz
[20:31] <vish> wolfreak: i have conky with compiz here.
[20:31] <candyninja> but still i did not see anything offensive in that nick
[20:31] <TrevInc> Take it to #ubuntu-offtopic please.
[20:31] <qin> candyninja: Whats why you have used it.
[20:31] <Hachya> candyninja: think it might have been the "porno" part...
[20:32] <joeb> Installed 11.04 on an NVIDIA RAID0, during install appeared to correctly find the striped drives. Once booted I get "no such device <uuid>"
[20:32] <MACscr> my system is crashing constantly lately and im not finding any useful information in kernlog or dmesg
[20:32] <Hachya> ....just guessing...
[20:32] <wolfreak> Dr_Willis: Some reason I have compiz running and I try to run conky, and I get that infamous freeze lag when a Windows program froze back in the day and you could drag the window everywhere. http://i.imgur.com/4VyQj.png
[20:32] <bogdaniel> hello everyone
[20:32] <oCean> candyninja: thank you for keeping the channel family friendly
[20:32] <candyninja> np
[20:32] <guntbert> back to support please Hachya
[20:33] <joeb> It would seem that GRUB2 can't find the correct device to boot from. I'm also having trouble mounting the filesystem to be able to make any changes.
[20:33] <Hachya> guntbert: aye
[20:33] <joeb> kpartx and dmraid successfully see (and active) the device however.
[20:33] <wolfreak> Dr_Willis: I'm probably missing a command or something or something simple, but I can't quite figure out how to explain it in google, lol.
[20:33] <joeb> Anyone have any ideas on how to fix the issue?
[20:34] <wolfreak> Again, here's the problem I'm having with conky in compiz, http://i.imgur.com/4VyQj.png It kinda reminds me of the classic windows 98 days lol
[20:35] <joeb> If anyone has any ideas for how to correct the RAID setup, I'd love to hear them :)
[20:35] <th0r> wolfreak: I had a similar problem. Don't use conky anymore, but as I recall I set the desktop to override and turned on double-buffer
[20:36] <stefan_> can someone offer an image editor for linux that feels intuitive/natural and photoshop-esque? Krita and GIMP have too many frustrating idiosyncracies
[20:36] <wolfreak> stefan_: It's not really a actual linux program, but if you have flash, this might be somewhat useful. http://pixlr.com/ it's a web app
[20:36] <stefan_> wolfreak: thanks, will check it out.
[20:37] <pat__> anyone know where to get a fixed css stylesheet for firefox 3.6.18? lucid
[20:37] <wolfreak> th0r: I tried double buffer, but I'll have to look up how to get the desktop to override, thanks!
[20:37] <pat__> *for dark gtk themes
[20:38] <wolfreak> pat__: Are you talking about when you change colors of your system, it effects firefoxs pages colors?
[20:38] <pat__> wolfreak, precisely
[20:38] <timh_1> Any ideas for a gmail checker that works with priority inbox.
[20:38] <oCean> !afk > iqpi|afk
[20:39] <wolfreak> pat__: Are you mainly having problems with text in textboxes? Such as say you're trying to update a status on Facebook but you can't see the text cause it's a white text in a textbox?
[20:39] <pat__> wolfreak, yeah exactly
[20:39] <pat__> and youtube
[20:39] <th0r> wolfreak: just put conky on this machine to check....it is 'own_window_type' that gets set to 'override'
[20:40] <joeb> Having an issue with Ubuntu 11.04 and dmraid support for an NVIDIA RAID0. During install it successfully found and installed to the stripped array but when booting it said "grub: no such device (device-uuid)" -- any thoughts?
[20:40] <rate5> Hello
[20:40] <wolfreak> pat__: If you give me a moment to boot up firefox, I'll give you a decent workaround. it isn't an exact solution, but I found it helps me for the case
[20:40] <pat__> wolfreak, anything besides having to hilight to check for typos
[20:40] <rate5> anyone a xorg.conf expert? :)
[20:41] <th0r> rate5: never trust an 'expert'
[20:41] <wolfreak> pat__: while I do this, open firefox and install the addon "Stylish"
[20:41] <pat__> wolfreak, also, gimme a minute to log into my main account, westz. i gotta switch to the profile that's got the problem
[20:41] <vish> pat__: are you using a dark theme?
[20:41] <kroq-gar78> hello everybody. I want to use my D-Link Adapter DWA-125 Wireless 150 on my desktop, but I'm not sure which module to use. When I download the RT3070 source from Ralink's website, it compiles to RT5370.ko. Any help?
[20:41] <wolfreak> pat__: haha take your time mate
[20:41] <vish> !ask | rate5
[20:42] <rate5> thanks vish
[20:42] <rate5> I will ask the question :P
[20:43] <edbian> ...
[20:44] <selig5> What command should I run from the terminal to get my geForce 6600 video card to work on Natty?
[20:44] <wolfreak> th0r: are you saying to use "conky --own-window override --double-buffer"? Cause I tried that, and it's still giving me the same problem
[20:44] <westz> okay, back
[20:44] <rate5> Question: I created a xorg.conf file so I could use compiz but now I get tons screen flicker and tearing.  Its a onboard intel graphics card using 11.04.  Any ideas on how to fix it? :)
[20:44] <westz> you said that was called stylis?
[20:44] <westz> *stylish
[20:44] <joeb> Having an issue with Ubuntu 11.04 and dmraid support for an NVIDIA RAID0. During install it successfully found and installed to the stripped array but when booting it said "grub: no such device (device-uuid)" -- any thoughts?
[20:45] <th0r> wolfreak: I always set the options in ~/.conkyrc, but you can set them on the command line also. Like I said...I dropped conky for gkrellm, so haven't used it in quite a while
[20:45] <wolfreak> gkrellm, i'll look into that, i was kidna wanting a alternative anyways, thanks!
[20:45] <wolfreak> stylish yes. install that addon and then come back in here and I'll give tyou the userstyle I use
[20:45] <dli> joe75, grub doesn't understand the raid0, probably
[20:45] <th0r> wolfreak: you knowyou can copy /etc/conky/conky.conf to ~/.conkyrc and every time you save that file conky will reload
[20:46] <joeb> dli: Any ideas on how to fix it?
[20:46] <dli> joe75, try to create a small /boot partition for grub
[20:46] <joeb> Unfortunately I can't mount the partitions :( -- I'll try with the alternative CD.
[20:47] <rate5> Can anyone help me fix screen flickering / tearing?
[20:47] <dli> rate5, what video card?
[20:47] <westz> wolfreak, okay, it's installed
[20:47] <rate5> dli, its the onboard intel one for toughbook cf-18
[20:47] <westz> this will fix youtube too? :)
[20:48] <wolfreak> Yes it will.
[20:48] <wolfreak> westz: with stylish installed, go here and install this http://userstyles.org/styles/50574/black-textbox-with-white-text?r=1310417257
[20:48] <westz> does this fix textboxes universally, or just for specific sites?
[20:48] <wolfreak> any textbox without a background image will be set to black, and text will be set to white.
[20:48] <dli> rate5, intel video should be stable enough now. which video card from lspci ?
[20:48] <Tigerboy> is ubuntu-tweak a good add for 11.04 and or does anyone have a good link for a page with repos lists?  I was warned not to turn on ubuntu updates-- prereleased and backports
[20:49] <wolfreak> come to think of that, thank you for metnioning that, I need to fix the background image lol
[20:49] <angelus11> Has anyone successfully set up a multiseat configuration with ubuntu and windows 7
[20:49] <westz> wolfreak, it's horridly ugly, but it works, so thanks
[20:49] <wolfreak> westz: do you want white background with black text?
[20:50] <kroq-gar78> Tigerboy: I like tweak. do this in the terminal: "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa"
[20:50] <westz> no, i just mean it turns stuff like the "comment" and other buttons black as well
[20:50] <wolfreak> I was just about to add an option to change the text from either white-black or black-white
[20:51] <westz> wolfreak, i dont mind, just commenting. if i was on facebook alot it'd bother me, but i dont so it's cool. thanks for the fix :)
[20:51] <nestor> quien abla español por favor
[20:51] <wolfreak> i'll see if I can't fix that problem with the text. if you want, in the meantime, email me and I'll send you an updated revision once I'm done, wolfreak99@gmail.com
[20:51] <rate5> dli, its Intel Corp 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics rev 02
[20:52] <dli> rate5, that's an old one, flickering with LCD ?
[20:52] <westz> wolfreak, maybe later, im leaving for the military today and i'm leaving this computer behind for a while, i wont have to deal with it for another two months XD
[20:52] <guntbert> !es | nestor
[20:52] <rate5> dli, yes it is
[20:52] <wolfreak> Ah. good luck in the military
[20:53] <westz> wolfreak, thank you
[20:53] <kroq-gar78> guntbert: never knew that one existed ;)
[20:53] <dli> rate5, try your luck with xrandr , maybe, it's better with other resolution/frequency
[20:54] <westz> wolfreak, just for curiosity's sake, could you also do a white-background-black-text version?
[20:54] <guntbert> kroq-gar78: that *what* existed ?
[20:54] <s0urse> hi everyone. im in a pickle.  im having a problem with ubuntu while it's starting up that says 'udevd[307]: can not read '/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules' then it says mountall: fsck /boot [275] terminated with status 1. any ideas? i don't get a prompt or anything to do diagnostics. im able to get access to the lvm using a live cd. just not sure what to do from here
[20:54] <kroq-gar78> guntburt: the ! es "command "

[20:55] <nestor> gracias
[20:55] <ron34563654> hi, does the jabra skype headset can work?
[20:55] <jn_> hi
[20:55] <jn_> where can i download ubuntu cursor theme ?
[20:55] <rate5> dli, oh ok, should I remove the xorg.conf that it generated?
[20:56] <dli> rate5, no need, just try with the command xrandr
[20:56] <kroq-gar78>  hello everybody. I want to use my D-Link Adapter DWA-125 Wireless 150 on my desktop, but I'm not sure which module to use. When I download the RT3070 source from Ralink's website, it compiles to RT5370.ko. Any help?
[20:56] <MACscr> my system is crashing a lot when using chromium. What logs should i be looking through when trying to troubleshoot it
[20:57] <rate5> dli, thank you I will try that now
[20:58] <kaellan> How to get hdmi working in ubuntu ?
[20:59] <dli> kaellan, it works by default
[20:59] <dli> kroq-gar78, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1289917 ?
[20:59] <rate5> dli, I just ran that commend still getting flicker :(
[21:00] <kaellan> dli: found now thin in nvidia x thingy scren detect :)
[21:00] <kroq-gar78> dli: I tried it, but when I plugged my device in, it said some errors about rt5370sta in dmesg
[21:00] <dli> rate5, no, you need to set modes with xrandr, to see whether it makes difference
[21:00] <Tigerboy> BTW everybody... I really think I like the latest Cairo dock
[21:00] <vacho> my ubuntu is running very slow..specially the graphics..what can I do?
[21:01] <Tigerboy> especially Cairo dock in Opengl mode
[21:01] <dli> vacho, video driver problem?
[21:01] <rate5> dli, so I use the info that xrandr gives me and I put in in the xorg.conf file?
[21:01] <vacho> dli, how would i Know?
[21:02] <wolfreak> westz, you still there?
[21:02] <dli> rate5, something like: xrandr --output LCD1 --mode 1024x768
[21:02] <wolfreak> Guess not, loll. Was another person asking about stylish as well?
[21:02] <rate5> thank you I will try it now
[21:03] <dli> vacho, what's your video card?
[21:04] <rate5> dli, the commend did not seem to do anything, do I need to reboot?
[21:04] <vacho> dli, NVIDIA Quadro NVS 295 (256 MB)
[21:04] <vacho> I have NVIDIA X Server Installed
[21:04] <JoshManders> Hey guys, when backing up, what folders are essential to backup?
[21:04] <dli> vacho, I don't touch nvidia :(
[21:04] <dli> JoshManders, for me, /home
[21:04] <edbian> JoshManders: home folders
[21:04] <edbian> JoshManders: Nothing else is essential really
[21:05] <dli> rate5, also, like: xrandr --output --mode 1024x768 -rate 75
[21:05] <JoshManders> Okay, so if I backup /home with Back In Time, and reinstall a fresh Ubuntu, and then restore it, I'll be fine with everything?
[21:06] <dli> JoshManders, yes, when you restore, better to do something like "cp -av", and make sure the uid matches
[21:06] <wolfreak> th0r: Sorry about that, I knew what the guys problem was and I wanted to offer a workaround, but I did what you said, about copying the conf file, and editing it through there. It now works. Thank you so much!
[21:06] <rate5> dli, ok so far no difference :( but thank you for your help so far
[21:07] <Tigerboy> nvidia seems to be a bit behind the latest... should I bother trying to update the driver I think Ubuntu default is 270 vs the current 275

[21:13] <chocolates> does onlive work on ubuntu?
[21:14] <devang> hey does anyone know how to get the ubuntu server installer to throw a more detailed message than "Unable to install GRUB in /dev/sda"
[21:15] <ar0n> guys, why would grub choose a random drive to set the mount points, and not the drive it is installed on?
[21:15] <ar0n> and is it easy to change?
[21:15] <edbian> ar0n: Why is a good question.  It is easy to install grub on a certain hdd.  Can you elaborate on your situation?
[21:15] <ar0n> if i change teh drive boot order to #1 being the os drive, in bios, then it gets pissy, it chose to install on a old 320gb ide drive
[21:15] <ar0n> edbian:  yeah
[21:16] <edbian> ar0n: How many harddrives do you have.  What is on each hdd?
[21:16] <ar0n> edbian:  i have 5
[21:16] <edbian> ar0n: oh boy
[21:16] <ar0n> 4 actually im sorry
[21:16] <edbian> ar0n: What OS's are installed.  Please list all of them and what hdd they're on.
[21:16] <ar0n> i had a botched install, of 9.04 today i chose to just go ahead and wipe and go to 11,  so i installed, and chose the , delele old version install new version option
[21:17] <ar0n> for whatever reason, it made the moint point my 320gb ide drive
[21:17] <edbian> ar0n: Please answer my question.
[21:17] <ar0n> win 7 and same hd that ubuntu is on.
[21:17] <gravestone> Hello.
[21:18] <ar0n> hld on ill get the drive names in a second
[21:18] <ar0n> everything is new and moved on this version, and im kinda a noob
[21:18] <edbian> ar0n: ubuntu does that a lot :)
[21:19] <ar0n> can you tell me the terminal code to list alld rives
[21:19] <ar0n> ?
[21:19] <seanscot_> Hi people
[21:19] <jrib> ar0n: fdisk -l
[21:19] <edbian> ar0n: sudo fdisk -l
[21:19] <edbian> seanscot_: hello
[21:19] <edbian> gravestone: hello
[21:19] <seanscot_> Can anyone tell me how to change my home and music folders locations like you do in windows?
[21:19] <jiteshsoni1990> will 11.10 use gnome 3
[21:19] <seanscot_> hi edbian :)
[21:19] <edbian> seanscot_: Just move them?
[21:19] <ar0n> ok now just let me find where theh ell terminal is
[21:19] <anomaliz> hello everybody
[21:20] <edbian> jiteshsoni1990: It will use unity
[21:20] <jrib> seanscot_: edit ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
[21:20] <edbian> anomaliz: hi
[21:20] <seanscot_> I mean so that the home folder default is in a different location
[21:20] <gravestone> I'm using Empathy for my yahoo account. I'm wondering why (this works on Yahoo Messenger BTW) can't I add my own account.
[21:20] <jrib> seanscot_: home folder is a different story.
[21:20] <jiteshsoni1990> sad bad experience using unity
[21:20] <ar0n> ok edbian
[21:20] <edbian> ar0n: ok?
[21:21] <ar0n> youw ant the drive name for the linux and win os AND the mount point?
[21:21] <seanscot_> jrib , any ideas ?
[21:21] <edbian> ar0n: I want all hdds and all OS's installed.  What do you mean by mount point?
[21:21] <jrib> seanscot_: I told you how to change things like the music directory location.  Why do you want to change the location of your HOME?
[21:21] <seanscot_> I want to make it the same home folder on a different partition as im using for windows
[21:21] <seanscot_> emm I guess your right jrib
[21:22] <seanscot_> I just need to change each folder to be the same as the windows one
[21:22] <ar0n> grub, appears to want my 320gb drive to be the #1 in bios drive, to boot my os's,
[21:22] <jrib> seanscot_: you don't want to put your home on ntfs.  But if you have things that just contain data (like music), that's ok.  You can either edit the file I told you, or if you prefer, just create a symlink
[21:22] <anomaliz> aye how can I see my partition ext4 on window ?
[21:22] <seanscot_> oh
[21:22] <edbian> anomaliz: http://www.google.com/#hl=en&xhr=t&q=ext4+on+windows&cp=7&pf=p&sclient=psy&source=hp&aq=0&aqi=&aql=&oq=ext4+on&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=fce33a84b0764b22&biw=1419&bih=823
[21:22] <jrib> seanscot_: I think symlink will offer a nicer experience in this scenario
[21:23] <seanscot_> yeah?
[21:23] <anomaliz> thanks edbian
[21:23] <seanscot_> it does the same thing really then?
[21:23] <extraclassic> seanscot_: i have a custom mount point called /data and i just don't use home
[21:23] <jrib> seanscot_: I don't know what you mean by "the same thing".  Same as what?
[21:23] <edbian> seanscot_: I symlinked my Desktop the other day.  it is seamless
[21:23] <edbian> anomaliz: sure
[21:23] <selig5> What command should I run from the terminal to get my geForce 6600 video card to work on Natty?
[21:24] <seanscot_> how do you symlink?
[21:24] <ar0n> edbian: /DEV/SDD has both os's on it
[21:24] <anomaliz> but I need another program because that program I have already used
[21:24] <edbian> ar0n: ok...  None of the other hdds have an OS on them?
[21:24] <jrib> seanscot_: ln -s TARGET NAME   (you will want to temporarily rename your current music directory and then create the symlink)
[21:24] <ar0n> nope
[21:24] <ar0n> ./dev/sda is the 320gb drive that i guess grub is on.
[21:24] <edbian> ar0n: Where is grub?
[21:24] <anomaliz> I cannot use it because it tells me I need to do administrator and I'm administrator
[21:24] <seanscot_> any links for how to jrib? im a bit thick lol
[21:25] <jrib> seanscot_: currently your music directory is ~/Music, correct?
[21:25] <ar0n> why it did this i dunno, but since i chose the option in the isntaller to deete and reinstall, i saw it say something about "grub mount point" in the window for custom options
[21:25] <seanscot_> yeah I think so
[21:25] <jrib> seanscot_: do you have anything in it?
[21:25] <seanscot_> no
[21:25] <edbian> ar0n: What hdd has grub on it?  What hdd do you want grub on?
[21:25] <ar0n> i wanted it to keep the same size partitions, from the previous install that wouldnt load, but for some reason it changed the grub moint point to the worst drive in the system
[21:26] <ubuntu-usr> hi all. my xchat-gnome can't load: XChat CRITICAL *** default event text failed to build!
[21:26] <edbian> ar0n: Answer my question please.
[21:26] <ar0n> i would liek grub on the /dev/sdd
[21:26] <jrib> seanscot_: ok, then delete it.  What is the path to the music directory you want (the windows one)?
[21:26] <ar0n> it is the drive that has ubuntu and windows
[21:26] <edbian> ar0n: Are you booted into ubuntu normally?
[21:26] <ar0n> yes
[21:26] <edbian> ar0n: sudo grub install /dev/sdd
[21:26] <edbian> ar0n: easy then :)
[21:26] <dscastro> hi...
[21:26] <ar0n> it can be installed on two different drives
[21:26] <ar0n> and not piss of each other?
[21:27] <dscastro> i need that my script runs after dhclient
[21:27] <ar0n> cause grub will find all os's on all drives correct?
[21:27] <edbian> ar0n: yep
[21:27] <dscastro> how i set it?
[21:27] <seanscot_> damn, im really struggling keeping up with the convo in this room lol
[21:27] <edbian> ar0n: It should.  If it does not update-grub may help
[21:27] <edbian> seanscot_: :)
[21:27] <jrib> seanscot_: ignore everything but the highlights :)
[21:27] <ar0n> shouldnt installing grub be the newest version
[21:27] <ar0n> ?
[21:28] <Justasic> hello, i cant seem to get my bluetooth keyboard to use shift, ctrl, and alt..
[21:28] <boldfilter> someone activate my UDID
[21:28] <ar0n> wait would i do that from grub?
[21:28] <ar0n> or from ubuntu?
[21:28] <edbian> ar0n: update-grub tells grub to look at the harddrives for operating systems and update the list.
[21:28] <edbian> ar0n: From ubuntu
[21:28] <edbian> ar0n: do it right now
[21:28] <seanscot_> \home\music is my location
[21:28] <ar0n> grub command not found
[21:28] <ar0n> =\
[21:29] <edbian> ar0n: sudo grub-install
[21:29] <jrib> seanscot_: no, that's not your window's one. Where is your windows partition mounted?
[21:29] <ar0n> sudo grub-install /dev/sdd
[21:29] <ar0n> ?
[21:29] <qin> dscastro: after you will get ip?
[21:30] <dscastro> yep
[21:30] <edbian> ar0n: yeah
[21:30] <ar0n> edbian:  ok will reboot change in bios and give it a whirl, is it easy to remove grub from a drive?
[21:30] <ar0n> er device = hd
[21:30] <edbian> ar0n: sure, IDK why you would bother though.
[21:31] <edbian> ar0n: hd ?
[21:31] <ar0n> i eman i guess no reason to
[21:31] <ar0n> harddisk
[21:31] <ar0n> =)
[21:31] <ar0n> brb
[21:31] <ar0n> thanks
[21:31] <FloodBot1> ar0n: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:31] <ghjgghj> hi, the GUI on my ubuntu crashes a lot (the screen gets all messed up), i think my GPU is not working right, is there anyway i can find out?
[21:31] <jrib> seanscot_: still with me
[21:31] <jrib> ?
[21:32] <seanscot_> yeah sorry
[21:32] <seanscot_> confused cos my pidgin is going mad with all the messages lol
[21:33] <jacobfogg> Hey Guys, trying to add a second PCIe x16 card to my system so that I can run 3 monitors instead of 2. The second card is not showing up in my settings at all at this point.
[21:34] <stefan_> can anyone else suggest a good image editor that feels a lot like photoshop?
[21:34] <ghjgghj> gimp
[21:35] <jacobfogg> I did some digging... lspci | grep VGA shows both cards... lshw -C display also shows the other card but says "*-display:1 UNCLAIMED"
[21:35] <jacobfogg> I cannot see the third monitor in any of the settings...
[21:35] <obengdako> hi any support for a2dp in ubuntu, i'm struggling to get the high quality sound, any help
[21:36] <stefan_> i hate gimp
[21:36] <stefan_> :(
[21:37] <jacobfogg> obengdako... I am pretty sure there is... I think it has something to do with the quality and capability of bluetooth receiver you have for your computer.
[21:38] <jacobfogg> Anyone know anything about adding a second PCI video card?
[21:39] <ar0nic> edbian:  works great
[21:39] <ar0nic> thanks
[21:39] <ar0nic> now how do i make 11 look like 10.04
[21:39] <edbian> ar0nic: sure
[21:40] <ar0nic> cause this isde bar is killing me
[21:40] <ChogyDan> stefan_: maybe this helps http://www.gimpshop.com/
[21:40] <ar0nic> and all my drop downs are god
[21:40] <ar0nic> one*
[21:40] <edbian> ar0nic: Log out, click your name, change the session to ubuntu classic, log in
[21:40] <ar0nic> you da man
[21:41] <jacobfogg> Does anyone know if you are able to run an nVidia and an ATI video card at the same time... perhaps that is the source of my problems...
[21:41] <TrevInc> ChogyDan, I'd never seen that before, but it's cool

[21:51] <ami_> hi folks, i have an eee pc with only 4gb internal storage, and there is not enough free space to do the updates. how do i figure out what packages are taking up the most space? are there any temp files etc i can clear?
[21:51] <kichawa> why in ubu b43 is in the blacklist?
[21:52] <kichawa> i should modprobe b43 manualy
[21:52] <edbian> kichawa: You need to install firmware-b43-installer
[21:52] <ami_> my home directory is basically empty, so there's nothing here for me to remove
[21:52] <dscastro> qin, find what?
[21:52] <dscastro> i still waiting for your hanswer
[21:53] <qin> dscastro: ok, is your box have same ip all the time (or same lan)?
[21:53] <kichawa> edbian: i did it
[21:53] <edbian> kichawa: and... ?
[21:53] <dscastro> qin, its dhcp
[21:53] <dscastro> qin, yep, there a reservation
[21:53] <kichawa> edbian: end stil i have to modprobe manually
[21:54] <edbian> kichawa: Is it listed in /etc/blacklist.conf ?
[21:54] <edbian> kichawa: Take it out manually
[21:54] <kichawa> edbian: ok i'll done it by why ?
[21:55] <ChogyDan> ami_: maybe try debfoster
[21:55] <edbian> kichawa: Cause it's blacklisted!
[21:56] <kichawa> edbian: there is # Warning: This file is autogenerated by bcmwl. All changes to this file will be lost.
[21:56] <ami_> ChogyDan: thanks
[21:56] <ubuntuUser123> clear
[21:56] <kichawa> edbian: why b43 is in the blacklist
[21:56] <qin> dscastro: ok, ip1=$("your.usual.ip.here"); ip2=$(hostname -I); if [[ "$ip2" == "$ip2" ]] then stuff; else sleep 1; fi <-- this in loop, but you want to get better solution in #bash
[21:56] <edbian> kichawa: to be honest.  it is not.
[21:56] <edbian> kichawa: I think it was legacy for you or you added it and forgot
[21:57] <ubuntuUser123> hey guys.  I am trying to upgrade but it says "Could nhot find the release notes" "The server may be overloaded"

[21:59] <soupeee> how to tell which ubuntu I'm using?
[21:59] <Corey> soupeee: cat /etc/issue
[21:59] <aeon-ltd> ryoohki: not sure if it's the same for ubuntu, but if you uninstall then install specifying the version number it will use a cached version and install thay
[21:59] <aeon-ltd> *that
[21:59] <qin> soupeee: lsb_release -a
[22:00] <flowbee__> whats the best way to wipe a box i'm about to sell to someone else?

[22:04] <soulnafein> hello
[22:04] <einseenai> anybody?
[22:04] <joshlegs> hiya all
[22:04] <soulnafein> I would like to understand whether I'm experiencing a known bug with Unity, Compiz or my graphic card
[22:05] <Praxi> truepurple: really depends on which program you are trying to run
[22:05] <thesary> Hi all
[22:06] <truepurple> praxi: A loader program
[22:06] <thesary> I am having a problem in Natty Narwhal -- my sound suddenly stopped working completely. I think I've figured out it's because pulseaudio has crashed, but I can't figure out how to fix it
[22:06] <david> join #ubuntu-fr-party
[22:06] <thesary> Can anyone help?
[22:06] <soulnafein> Since the upgrade to 11.04 I get some intermittent glitch. The screen sometime doesn't refresh until I move to another workspace and back again. Does it make sense?
[22:07] <Praxi> truepurple: have to look at the compatability lists and see if your program is there. http://appdb.winehq.org/
[22:07] <truepurple> Praxi: What depends on which program I want to use, whether to use wine or something else, or do you mean which version of wine to download?
[22:07] <thesary> Does anyone know how to fix a pulseaudio crash?
[22:08] <ChogyDan> thesary: service pulseaudio status   ??
[22:08] <Dj_Deutschi> Hello all
[22:08] <Praxi> truepurple: all of the above hehe.  Crossfire is another program it has a pretty have focus on some of the work/productivity apps, There is another wine fork for games (forget its name, cedega?), and even the various versions of wine behave differently with a given windows program.
[22:09] <qin> unclemantis: I think ftp works with users too, you can use find -atime to "correct" files on the server
[22:09] <thesary> @ChogyDan do I put that into terminal?
[22:09] <ChogyDan> yes
[22:09] <thesary> it says service configured for per-user sessions
[22:09] <Praxi> truepurple: when you look up your program in the app database on winehq, it use to tell you what version of wine or what config worked best
[22:10] <ChogyDan> thesary: same for me.  I think that means it is running
[22:10] <thesary> Hm. And yet, I get no sound at all
[22:10] <thesary> It suddenly stopped working about 4 days ago. After one restart, it worked for a minute, and then quit again
[22:10] <Dj_Deutschi> I have a strange problem (using Ubuntu 10.04 with GNOME) when trying to run Gnome Run dialog with Alt+F2, it's starting the TTY2 then switching back to TTY7 (Alt+F7) the Run dialog is started, but it's creapy since Alt+F<num> is starting TTY and not Ctrl+Alt+F<num>
[22:10] <thesary> I tried checking my preferences, and adding in a line for my soundcard, but with no luck
[22:10] <einseenai> has anybody tried to install 32bit Ubuntu 11.04/other 32bit distro on amd e350? i can only run 64 or hybrid images. anybody, please
[22:11] <qin> Dj_Deutschi: Messed accessibility, sticky keys?
[22:11] <ChogyDan> thesary: maybe try: sudo service pulseaudio restart
[22:12] <ar0n> is there a way to set a main display in dual monitor setup
[22:12] <thesary> gave me the same message, hm
[22:12] <ar0n> it keeps trying to set my hdmi output as the primary
[22:12] <Dj_Deutschi> qin: I have checked that but as far I'm able to see the Keys-configurations there is no problem
[22:12] <ChogyDan> thesary: still no sound though?
[22:12] <ar0n> i thought it looked for vga as #1 but its not
[22:12] <thesary> nope, not at all
[22:12] <soulnafein> Since the upgrade to 11.04 I get some intermittent glitch. The screen sometime doesn't refresh until I move to another workspace and back again. Does it make sense?
[22:14] <morning> truepurple: Praxi mentioned "Crossfire." I think he meant "Crossover."
[22:15] <truepurple> A important difference :p
[22:15] <Praxi> lol morning could well be!
[22:15] <thesary> I have found much for this about other versions of ubuntu, but nothing for nattynarwhal... everything i've checked seems to be telling me that everything is fine, unmuted, and working,
[22:15] <qin> soulnafein: You could try to replicate it in !classic and eventualy fill !but against !unity if problem is present only there, lurk in logs may also help.
[22:15] <qin> *bug
[22:15] <thesary> except that PulseAudio has crashed, and now I guess it's telling me THAT is working too, but still won't play sound for music or alerts or movies or anything
[22:16] <soulnafein> qin: cheers
[22:17] <ChogyDan> thesary: how do you know that it has crashed?
[22:17] <morning> Praxi: :)
[22:17] <ryan-c> Can someone help me recover eCryptfs for my homedir?  I have the correct passphrase and can unwrap the key, but it tells me "keyctl_search: Required key not available"
[22:17] <thesary> I am looking for the code that I used,
[22:17] <ar0n> anyone using multi monitor display and knwo how to set the vga output to primary?
[22:17] <ar0n> it is assigning my hdmi as the primary desktop
[22:17] <thesary> it was some system probe that I entered into terminal and it popped up with a little box saying 'PulseAudio has crashed'
[22:18] <nick> to take a scren shot do i hit prnt screen?
[22:18] <rww> yes
[22:19] <Guest31002> when i try to paste the picture into gimp after hitting print screen it says there is no image copied
[22:19] <ChogyDan> thesary: speaker-test?  I really don't know though
[22:19] <laffer> ar0n, is your graphic card ati?
[22:19] <thesary> Oh yes I did that with it, and it clicked for my right and left speaker both
[22:19] <kierge> does it take up a whole bunch of memory to use all 4 workspaces ?
[22:20] <kierge> in natty unity
[22:20] <ar0n> yes
[22:21] <ar0n> i did grab the restricted drivers ass wel, and under monitor pref, i can disable that monitor and it jumps all back to my vga screen
[22:21] <nrdb> Hi... I am trying to update a chroot.... I can't access the internet... I can when not in the chroot... what is wrong?
[22:21] <Araq> I've a problem ...

[22:21] <laffer> ar0n, I got dual display with an hdmi too. I'm using propretary drivers and changed the config in the ati catalyst control center
[22:21] <Escherial> hello; i'm using ubuntu 11.04 in a multimonitor setup where my main monitor is shorter than my secondary monitor
[22:21] <ChogyDan> nrdb: try copying in resolv.conf
[22:22] <ar0n> Escherial:  you could cdhange that with resolution
[22:22] <Araq> whatever
[22:22] <Escherial> windows maximize fine, but i've found that tooltips in programs like eclipse go off the bottom of the monitor and tend to span the monitors, making them hard to read
[22:22] <Araq> you lost
[22:22] <Araq> I'm gonna use arch instead :P
[22:22] <Escherial> ar0n: is it a problem for them to have different heights? :\
[22:23] <ar0n> im having a multi display i sue right now but they're not givving me issues with different heights
[22:23] <Escherial> i assume the tooltips going off the bottom of my primary monitor is because my primary is somehow being stretched to the height of my second one (even though, as mentioned, maximizing seems fine)
[22:23] <ar0n> i cant get my vga monitor be the main or primary
[22:23] <Escherial> ah, hrm :\ yeah, i don't know how to switch that, either
[22:23] <ar0n> laffer:
[22:24] <ar0n> you still around
[22:24] <laffer> yes
[22:25] <Escherial> ar0n: does this help at all?: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1309247
[22:26] <ar0n> the thign is, its choosing my hdmi output over my VGA
[22:26] <ar0n> and tha doesnt make sense.
[22:27] <laffer> ar0n, choosing htmi as the main?
[22:27] <ar0n> no i want the vga as main
[22:27] <ar0n> and hdmi as secondary
[22:28] <ar0n> under monitor pref i can turn off the hdmi monitor and it will all go to the vga display
[22:28] <szal> why would one want to prefer analog output over digital?
[22:28] <laffer> ar0n, as I said, I'm using the proprietary drivers and have done that using them. don't really no with the restricted drivers
[22:28] <ar0n> well i mean, it popped up and asked me to install them
[22:29] <ar0n> what card you using?
[22:29] <szal> laffer: restricted and proprietary should be the same

[22:30] <Kamilion> i looked in the build log, and there was something built within a week ago
[22:30] <szal> ar0n: what card are _you_ using?
[22:30] <vademecum> when I click on the upgrade button I get "no suitable plugins found"
[22:30] <ar0n> ati 4290
[22:30] <vademecum> have 11.04
[22:31] <ChogyDan> Kamilion: what ppa?
[22:31] <szal> Kamilion: and, what *buntu version?
[22:31] <ar0n> im using the propiertary drivers as well
[22:31] <ar0n> thats what i dont understand
[22:31] <ar0n> szal yeah they're the same
[22:32] <munzx> hi! everybody! ... i dont have a real problem with ubuntu  :) i just passed 2 say hell on window$ i dumped it 3 months ago and never looked back! :)
[22:32] <szal> laffer: your task ^^
[22:32] <Kamilion> maverick 10.10, and kernel-ppa/ppa
[22:32] <laffer> ar0n, have you got xinerama enabled?
[22:32] <Alnada_Rigel> how does one install the 32 bit gsteamer plugins on a 32 bit system?
[22:32] <ar0n> no
[22:33] <thesary> Okay lets try this again from the beginning: My sound has randomly stopped working, can anybody help me?
[22:33] <sudokill> what does -cchuid is deprecated please se -u user instead mean?
[22:33] <thesary> (in Natty NarwhaL)_
[22:33] <ChogyDan> Kamilion: well, you can try the mainline ppa which has no ubuntu patches
[22:34] <Kamilion> which ppa is that?
[22:35] <ChogyDan> Kamilion: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/   ...
[22:35] <szal> sudokill: when doing what?
[22:35] <emmetea> when im installing and it gets to the networking part anything i enter for the computers name comes up as "that name is already taken on the network"
[22:35] <sudokill> szal, wrong channel sorry
[22:35] <laffer> ar0n, i know there's an option that you can set the vga primary. isn't there that option on the catalist control center?
[22:35] <ar0n> not at all
[22:35] <laffer> ar0n, and system> preferences > monitor?
[22:36] <Kamilion> ChogyDan: How do I use this? it's not the webpage I was at that told me the add-apt-repository id
[22:36]  * vademecum tryin again
[22:36] <vademecum> according to software center I have flash-player installed but I still can play youtubes
[22:36] <vademecum> when I click on the upgrade button I get "no suitable plugins found"
[22:36] <Kamilion> do I just change it to ppa:kernel-ppa/mainline ?
[22:36] <ar0n> laffers nope
[22:36] <ChogyDan> Kamilion: what webpage?
[22:36] <Blutterbob> Hi therre, just upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04, from 8.10 and up I never had any problem with my wireless (Dell D620 laptop, BMC4311 wireless interface), but right now its not working.. Used jockey to install the driver, but ifconfig -a does not show the wifi interface.. Is this a know problem? How may I fix it?
[22:36] <ar0n> it has an option to MAKE DEFAULT, but it still bumps  to  hdmi
[22:36] <Escherial> anyone happen to know if having dual monitors with different heights can cause problems?
[22:36] <ar0n> no matter what i do
[22:37] <Kamilion> https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/ppa
[22:37] <Kamilion> that one
[22:37] <ChogyDan> Kamilion: why not just upgrade to natty, and get the kernel that way?
[22:37] <Escherial> unfortunately, my laptop screen is kind of short, so it'd be hard to run the second monitor at the same height (it wouldn't be the native resolution, at least)
[22:37] <fishscene> Escherial: Yes, it doesn't work like in Windows. It will draw the size difference anyway and create an "unseeable" space.
[22:37] <laffer> ar0n, damn! can't remember what i did.. i'd have to logout to see
[22:37] <ar0n> me too
[22:37] <ar0n> brb
[22:37] <Kamilion> ChogyDan: can I get cuda 4.0 to work on natty? I thought it only worked on 10.10
[22:37] <Escherial> fishscene: i figured as much :\ it seems like certain apps don't realize that that part of the screen isn't visible (eclipse, for one)
[22:37] <Escherial> is there any way around it?
[22:38] <Kamilion> nvidia doesn't say they support ubuntu 11.04
[22:38] <fishscene> Yea, apps are only really aware of desktop real-estate (which ubuntu tells them), not what is actually visible.
[22:38] <vademecum> can anybody watch yutubes in 11.04
[22:38] <vademecum> ?
[22:39] <laffer> ar0n, i really think there's that option in the catalyst.
[22:39] <fishscene> vademecum: definitely
[22:39] <billy2007> is there any way to use my pcs internet connection in my iphone when connected via usb
[22:39] <Kamilion> the problem is not the nvidia stuff though -- it's having a problem with my "atl1c" onboard ethernet
[22:39] <Escherial> fishscene: meh, so there's really no way around this without an overhaul of how the window manager reports the screen dimensions, huh?
[22:39] <Kamilion> keeps dropping connection
[22:39] <vademecum> how did you install flash player fishscene?
[22:40] <ChogyDan> Kamilion: I dunno, but this ppa might be cool: https://launchpad.net/~aaron-haviland/+archive/cuda-4.0    and to use the mainline ppa, just click on the packages you need, usually 2 headers packages, and an image package
[22:40] <Kamilion> And this blog post says I need 2.6.37 or above for a better ethernet driver http://blog.cryptohaze.com/2011/05/asus-1215n-cuda-and-setup-notes.html
[22:40] <fishscene> Escherial: Unfortunately, I really have no idea. I was just testing one day and found little information on the problem and decided to drop it and just say "Multi-monitor support needs more work before I can roll it out"
[22:40] <emmetea> has the ubiquity bug #738732 been fixed yet or is ther q workaround?
[22:40] <fishscene> vademecum: I believe I downloaded it from the flashplayer website. I think you can install it through the Software Center as well.
[22:41] <Escherial> fishscene: well, that's something to go on at least :) thanks, glad i'm not just crazy
[22:41] <Kamilion> ChogyDan: Oh, that's awesome! a cuda4 ppa for natty! I'll try that later.
[22:41] <MagicJ> I have a known good memory stick - have installed loads of machines from it - on one machine when it gets to the setting up users - it goes to the live CD log in screen - all looks good - but - not cvomplete - so will not boot - what is wrong
[22:41] <billy2007> vademecum, go to the software centre and download ubuntu restricted extras
[22:41] <billy2007> thsts how i did it
[22:41] <turtl3> vademecum: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[22:41] <phrostbite> Gah what is the libsomethingorother that allows me to play dvds I forget :(
[22:41] <ChogyDan> Kamilion: actually looking at it, it doesn't look well tested...
[22:41] <Kamilion> it's not nvidia supported?
[22:42] <ChogyDan> Kamilion: of course not.  ppas are generally not supported
[22:42] <fishscene> phrostbite: libdvdcss?
[22:42] <Kamilion> the debian link doesn't even work
[22:42] <new2ubuntuguy> hi everyone!
[22:42] <billy2007> is there any way to use my pcs internet connection in my iphone when connected via usb
[22:42] <phrostbite> AH yes fishscene thats the one :)
[22:42] <fishscene> phrostbite: Your better option would probably be to search for "codecs" in the Software Center
[22:42] <phrostbite> Alrighty
[22:43] <Kamilion> well, I'll try it later and see, I have natty in another partition
[22:43] <vademecum> wow, unable to locate package flashplug-installer
[22:43] <new2ubuntuguy> I just set up my system with partitions and LVM and I can access home and the file system, but not the main part of my hard drive, the largest part, any help to solve this?
[22:43] <fishscene> vademecum: Try searching for "flash" in the software center. There's one called "Adobe Flash Plugin" (for mozilla)
[22:43] <billy2007> vademecum, go to the software centre and download ubuntu restricted extras
[22:44] <Ingsoc> Hello Ubuntu, I am trying to edit a txt file over a ssh connection. What is the easiest way to save it as UTF-8?
[22:44] <new2ubuntuguy> anyone available to help?
[22:45] <fiatlux> i downloaded that game conquest and it was only available in binaries, was wondering if someone could walk me through compiling them and installing this game
[22:45] <meganerd> billy2007: it depends on your phone
[22:45] <rony> ciao gente cosa fatte
[22:45] <meganerd> billy2007: on my android I have an app that does this, other phones may or may not work
[22:46] <szal> fiatlux: since when does one need to compile binaries?
[22:46] <szal> !it | rony
[22:46] <vademecum> I typed ubuntu-restricted-extras in the search window and nothing came up
[22:46] <vademecum> zilch
[22:46] <fiatlux> that's what i'm saying not sure what i'm supposed to do with the files. i assumed i needed to make install or something
[22:46] <billy2007> is there anyway to conect to two networks at once caise i just managed to connect ot my pc wireleesly
[22:47] <Kamilion> ChogyDan: okay, it looks like mainline does not have the ubuntu patches... which ones do?
[22:47] <szal> [00:43:02] <vademecum> wow, unable to locate package flashplug-installer <- flashplugin-installer please
[22:47] <turtl3> vademecum: the name of the package is flashplugin-installer
[22:48] <meganerd> billy2007: what exactly are you asking?
[22:48] <meganerd> billy2007: yes it is possible to connect to more than one network at the same time, the caveat is that it is not point and click simple
[22:49] <ChogyDan> Kamilion: you can try the patched kernel that I maintain: https://launchpad.net/~chogydan/+archive/ppa   make sure to add it by editing your sources.list, and adding it as natty not maverick.  That will give you 2.6.38
[22:49] <Kamilion> Awesome! Thanks so much :D
[22:50] <Kamilion> ChogyDan: oh, this has CK and all the goodies too? :D :D :D
[22:50] <vademecum> ok, I found restricted extras but It says I have to uninstall some other stuff but it doesn't say uninstall it just says install anyway, so I did.
[22:51] <ChogyDan> Kamilion: yeah, that's its purpose  :)
[22:51] <leeechmiui> I wish my ubuntu would update normally without a error
[22:51] <leeechmiui> ive pasted error online and all the fixes ive found dont work
[22:51] <Alnada_Rigel> anyone know how to install the 32 bit gsteaming plugins on a 64 bit system?
[22:51] <szal> Alnada_Rigel: what difference would that make?
[22:52] <andrew__> yes i am having trouble upgrading xubuntu 10.10 to 11.04 i get a libc6 error
[22:52] <vademecum> so it's "in progress" whatever that means

[22:52] <Ingsoc> Hello Ubuntu, I am trying to edit a txt file over a ssh connection. What is the easiest way to save it as UTF-8?
[22:53] <qin> Ingsoc: iconv
[22:53] <flowbee__> i want an easy way for the user to add something to a string that i will regex out and replace later.  for instance "%FIRSTNAME% %LASTNAME% I'm excited to meet you"  .. is %s% good as anything else?
[22:54] <Ingsoc> qin: Thanks mate!
[22:54] <andrew__> leeechmiui, i am pastebin the error
[22:54] <qin> Ingsoc: Also dpkg-reconfigure locales is usefull for servers
[22:54] <qin> Ingsoc: as locale command
[22:55] <andrew__> this is the error http://pastebin.com/gNSSnKyD
[22:55] <Ingsoc> qin: I think iconv was what I wa trying to remember. I am just trying to edit one config file on for a minecraft server. Thanks again for the tips!
[22:55] <szal> rosstaylor: LibreOffice or Excel?
[22:55] <Kamilion> ChogyDan: Okay, I've added the ppa -- which packages should I apt-get? Appears you have a couple metapackages in here
[22:55] <rosstaylor> szal: libreoffice - this just happened today - all of sudden, it says that the file became corrupted
[22:55] <ChogyDan> Kamilion: sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic-ck linux-headers-generic-ck
[22:56] <pfifo> Im about to make a m68k toolchain, anyone have any reason why It might be better to or gcc 4.4 over 4.6 or visa versa?
[22:56] <MagBo> hi guys and trolls. adding user to the audio group doesn't help with getting [AO_ALSA] Playback open error: No such file or directory
[22:56] <MagBo> i'm trying to fire mplayer
[22:56] <szal> rosstaylor: so what?  that happens..  either you have a backup, or you're out of luck
[22:56] <rosstaylor> szal: should I check the "allow executing file as a program" option and try to open it?
[22:56] <Kamilion> Okie dokie, thanks.
[22:56] <qin> flowbee: echo "text $1 text $2 text $3 text." ; script would take 3 arguments: script.sh me you weather
[22:57] <rosstaylor> szal: i do have a backup but it's a month old
[22:57] <MagBo> the strange thing is that I have access to alsamixer only as root
[22:57] <rosstaylor> szal: so I'll lose important file in one-month time
[22:57] <MagBo> and the sound works well in flash/skype
[22:57] <rosstaylor> szal: so preferably, i'd like to recover the corrupted file
[22:57] <MagBo> ideas?
[22:57] <qin> flowbee: Also /j #bash, since it is not directly #ubuntu problem

[23:00] <molossus> is  42C (108 F)   normal for hard drive temperature in a laptop?
[23:00] <llutz> molossus: unfortunately yes
[23:01] <billy2007> if i can connect to my phone through an ad hoc network can i ssh into any folder i want without being connected to the internet
[23:01] <Dr_Willis> billy2007,  if you got a ssh server going. you should be able to.
[23:02] <gregory_> what signifies a ssh server?
[23:02] <molossus> llutz , why unfortunately?
[23:02] <Dr_Willis> !ssh
[23:02] <llutz> molossus: because thats normal and imo too warm
[23:02] <szal> rosstaylor: either you get a repair option on trying to open it, or you don't..  in the latter case you could try to extract the file (it's a .zip archive) & repack it

[23:03] <Shaba1> Hello can someone tell me what is the "casper-rw" partition on a usb ?\
[23:03] <tripelb> Google Body uses WebGL, a new standard for 3D on the Web. Your browser supports WebGL, but WebGL is not initializing properly.
[23:03] <biglinux> #ubunto-br porque meu biglinux 4.2 nao da boot
[23:03] <Dr_Willis> billy2007,  totally depends on your phone....
[23:03] <Alnada_Rigel> Shaba1, its probably some sort of secure partition or something.
[23:03] <Alnada_Rigel> Shaba1, contact the usb providers.
[23:03] <Dr_Willis> Shaba1,  thats your users saved files....
[23:03] <Shaba1> yeah I know its secure
[23:03] <adam11x> is it possible to successfully install grub to a luks encrypted drive and use it to boot?
[23:04] <billy2007> iphone
[23:04] <molossus> llutz is there anything i can do (ie tweaks ) or something to bring the temperature down
[23:04] <Shaba1> I made the usb with unetbootin
[23:04] <Kamilion> Argh!
[23:04] <szal> biglinux: speak English here, or /join #ubuntu-br (not #ubunto-br)..
[23:04] <Dr_Willis> Shaba1,  when you make a persistant save file. i belive thats its name...
[23:04] <gregory_> good media player/;visualizer suggestion ?
[23:04] <Dr_Willis> Shaba1,  i dident tjhink unetbootin had that feature.. but it may be it does now
[23:04] <Alnada_Rigel> szal, its an error from wine
[23:04] <Shaba1> ok then why can I note access it from ubuntu
[23:04] <Shaba1> It says I have to have root privilages
[23:04] <billy2007> Dr_Willis, an iphone 3gs ive only used shell to ssh to websites and that was a long time ago
[23:04] <szal> Alnada_Rigel: I saw that, but Wine doesn't spit errors for no reason ;)
[23:04] <Dr_Willis> Shaba1,  its a file.. you can mount it if you wanted...
[23:05] <Alnada_Rigel> szal, its for a few different games.
[23:05] <Dr_Willis> billy2007,  good luck getting a ssh server on a iphone..
[23:05] <Kamilion> ChogyDan: the nvidia module won't build for this kernel -- it says it was built with gcc 4.5
[23:05] <Shaba1> I am trying to put the driver for my wlan card on there so I can connect to the net from the usb key
[23:05] <Alnada_Rigel> Shaba1, just sudo to access the files.
[23:05] <Dr_Willis> Shaba1,  why not boot the usb key.. and then copy the file over...
[23:05] <Shaba1> <----- windows person
[23:06] <Kamilion> Oh no, he's gone!
[23:06] <Dr_Willis> Shaba1,  normally one does not just 'copy' drivers over.. what are you copying over exactly?
[23:06]  * fxhp slaps Shaba1
[23:06] <llutz> molossus: keep load low, keep openings clear (for the fan). but most things depend on the laptop-design, you can't change
[23:06] <molossus> ok
[23:07] <Shaba1> Well I would Dr_Willis but when I boot from the usb key I get a kde interface and I can see my HD but when I click on the icon in Konqueror I get "/media/disk" does not exist
[23:07] <Dr_Willis> molossus,  there are those laptop-cool-pads .. but ive had mixxed results with them. be sure to dust the laptop out regullary
[23:07] <rosstaylor> i am unable to open an libreoffice excel spreadsheet due to corrupt file, is there a way to circumvent this?
[23:07] <Dr_Willis> Shaba1,  try mounting it by hand i guess..
[23:07] <gregory_> anyone host a kildclient world i can connect to?
[23:07] <Shaba1> Ok
[23:08] <szal> gregory_: a what?
[23:08] <molossus> Dr_Willis , i use a laptop cooler but even with that , i get 43C on this laptop, but only when it runs any linux distro, that doesnt happen with windows
[23:08] <billy2007> can anyone help me connect to my ad hoc network and my wirless network at the same time
[23:08] <Dr_Willis> !mount |  Shaba1
[23:08] <gregory_> its a 'game' called kildclient i believe it is a catalyst for roleplaying
[23:09] <szal> !ot | gregory_
[23:09] <Dr_Willis> molossus,  the laptop makers have speciual drivers for windows that can cut things down to save even more power. My Toshiba X505 has some 'eco-mode' that saves a lot of power.. but it slows the laptop down so much.. its almost unuseable..
[23:09] <gregory_> lol um, how did you write specifically to me?
[23:09] <Dr_Willis> !bot | gregory_
[23:10] <Shaba1> ok how do I know which 'dev' the hard drive is?
[23:10] <Dr_Willis> Shaba1,  sudo fdisk -l     normally
[23:10] <Dr_Willis> I think that was covered in the mount wiki page...
[23:11] <billy2007> can anyone help me connect to my ad hoc network and my wirless network at the same time
[23:11] <Dr_Willis> Shaba1,   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[23:12] <Shaba1> I am getting that next
[23:12] <Shaba1> thanks Dr_Willis you but my onto the right track
[23:12] <h00k> billy2007: I doubt you will be able to associate to both with one wireless card
[23:12] <Dr_Willis> Yep. 2 wireless cards. would be needed.

[23:24] <ntoombs> Hi. I'm having problems forwarding port 80 to my server. I have talked to my isp to make sure they are not blocking it and they confermed they are not. I have sucessfully forwarded port 22 to my server in the same way I have forwarded port 80. Does anyone know of a reason why port 80 wouldn't allow incoming connections like this after talking these mentioned steps?
[23:27] <Gskellig> anybody?
[23:28] <ntoombs> Gskellig: have you tried uninstalling?

[23:29] <Gskellig> and it's /dev/sda6
[23:30] <billy2007> how can i connect to two wireless networks one made on my laptop to be recieved by wi-fi and one being recieved by wi-fi
[23:31] <ntoombs> Gskellig: looks like a problem with permissions
[23:32] <Gskellig> also for some really odd reason, my partitions are messed up somehow
[23:32] <Gskellig> i have two, 4gb linux-swap partitions
[23:32] <Gskellig> i have no idea how that happened
[23:33] <Gskellig> maybe a hibernation thing?
[23:33] <preilly> how do I set--up multicast on one box for testing I have one physical nic and one virtual
[23:33] <billy2007> how can i connect to two wireless networks one made on my laptop to be recieved by another device and one being recieved by wi-fi
[23:34] <Gskellig> ntoombs, permissions problem? do you know how I fix that?
[23:34] <snizzo> how can I make my python script run on ubuntu startup via script?
[23:34] <ntoombs> only in a the command line sort of.
[23:34] <Gskellig> thats ok
[23:35] <ntoombs> i would just find all the files installed by grub then do an autoremove command
[23:35] <ntoombs> then just sudo apt-get install whatever the grub package is called
[23:35] <billy2007> how can i connect to two wireless networks one made on my laptop to be recieved by another device and one being recieved by wi-fi
[23:36] <mrdeb> billy2007: you need network manaager and change ip4 from auto to shared
[23:36] <preilly> does anybody know how I would set-up multicast on one box for testing (I have one physical nic and one virtual)
[23:37] <uRock>  ipv6?
[23:38] <snizzo> is there a file that tell ubuntu to run my script at startup? (with user rights)
[23:38] <preilly> ipv4
[23:38] <uRock> system> preferences> startup apps snizzo
[23:38] <DartmanX> is it possible to override the default keymap on a per application basis?
[23:38] <Uchiha_Itachi> snizzo, go to "system" "preferences" "startup apps"
[23:38] <Klevi|PC> Anyone know of a way to show CPU/System Temp in bash?
[23:39] <snizzo> uRock Uchiha_Itachi : I need to do it via Makefile
[23:39] <centHOGG> Klevi|PC: ever heard of lm-sensors yet
[23:39] <Klevi|PC> centHOGG: I have, tried to install that as well but its not as intuitive to use as top foex
[23:40] <snizzo> i'm writing my app's installer
[23:40] <uRock> snizzo, all you have to do is make the script, then make it executable, then add it to startup apps
[23:40] <Uchiha_Itachi> snizzo, i think you should put it on /etc/init.d/ then
[23:40] <centHOGG> pm me
[23:40] <preilly> anyone have any ideas for me?
[23:40] <snizzo> Uchiha_Itachi: will it be executed with user's permissions?
[23:41] <snizzo> I'm writing an app indicator.
[23:41] <Uchiha_Itachi> it should
[23:41] <snizzo> mm ok
[23:42] <billy2007> it just cuts off my internet when i do that
[23:42] <billy2007> that just cuts off my internet completly when i do that
[23:42] <fahmad> hello
[23:43] <fahmad> can someone tell me how can i copy 69 GB Virtual Hard Drive ...
[23:44] <ntoombs> Hi. I'm having problems forwarding port 80 to my server. I have talked to my isp to make sure they are not blocking it and they confermed they are not. I have sucessfully forwarded port 22 to my server in the same way I have forwarded port 80. Does anyone know of a reason why port 80 wouldn't allow incoming connections like this after talking these mentioned steps?
[23:44] <billy2007> my internet just cuts off completly when i do that
[23:44] <fahmad> any one ?
[23:44] <fahmad> please its kinda urgent sir :)
[23:45] <snizzo> Uchiha_Itachi: solution found! ~/.config/autostart/MyApp.desktop
[23:46] <Uchiha_Itachi> snizzo, nice
[23:47] <exutux> snizzo: is the same of autostart appilication by GUI, that's write autostart application in ~/.config/autostart
[23:47] <Guest12632> oi (:
[23:47] <Gskellig> somehow my grub got corrupted, can someone help me reinstall it? I'm currently on a live cd getting error "error: will not proceed with blocklists" when I try to grub-install
[23:48] <Darael> Got an interesting one here.  Attempting to use the alternate CD to install (I want to fiddle with things, and stuff), but said CD leaves the backlight on the display off.  The brightness function-keys do nothing.  The display is unreadable without any backlight.  Ideas?
[23:48] <snizzo> exutux: yep. I needed to do it via Makefile for my app... so nice this way :)
[23:48] <billy2007> i been trying for ages can someone tell me how to connect to two wireless networks at once
[23:48] <Darael> billy2007: You need two wireless adaptors.
[23:49] <fahmad> can someone tell me how can i copy 69 GB Virtual Hard Drive ...
[23:49] <Gskellig> fahmad, drag and drop =P
[23:49] <captwho> I'm running 10.04 and can't find a xorg.conf file.  does such an animal exist under another name?
[23:50] <Uchiha_Itachi> Gskellig, hahahaha
[23:50] <Darael> fahmad: If it's a virtual file, any old method will do.
[23:50] <Gskellig> somehow my grub got corrupted, can someone help me reinstall it? I'm currently on a live cd getting error "error: will not proceed with blocklists" when I try to grub-install
[23:50] <fahmad> Darael: rsync and cp does not works
[23:50] <fahmad> :(
[23:50] <fahmad> it said file it too large :(
[23:51] <billy2007> can someone tell me how to connect to two wireless networks at once one coming in from a router and one going outu
[23:51] <Darael> fahmad: Interesting.  What filesystem are you trying to copy it to?
[23:51] <fahmad> FAT32
[23:51] <fahmad> :$
[23:52] <Darael> fahmad: That explains that.  There's an upper limit on the size of a file in FAT32.  You'll have to use NTFS instead, if you need it to be Windows-readable.
[23:52] <exutux> FAT32 support only 4GB
[23:52] <fahmad> :(
[23:52] <fahmad> ok
[23:52] <fahmad> thanks
[23:52] <exutux> max 4GB for file...
[23:52] <captwho> billy2007, how many adapters do you have in your puter?
[23:53] <billy2007> im on a laptop i know i cN
[23:53] <Darael> billy2007: You'll need to add a second adaptor.  A USB one would do nicely.
[23:53] <billy2007> im on a laptop i know i can make a network i can connect to i just need to be able to connect to my wireless one at the same time
[23:54] <billy2007> ubuntu never reads my usb adapters and i dont belive that would work
[23:54] <tiox1> My USB hard line from my modem to my router is being a PITA.
[23:54] <exutux> billy2007: you want to connect your wifi card at two access point at the same time?
[23:55] <maalac> billy2007: have you tried pluging your usb into another machine ? what is the brand ?
[23:55] <Darael> Got an interesting one here.  Attempting to use the alternate CD to install (I want to fiddle with things, and stuff), but said CD leaves the backlight on the display off.  The brightness function-keys do nothing.  The display is unreadable without any backlight.  Ideas?
[23:55] <billy2007> no i want a device to wirelessly use my laptops internet connection
[23:55] <captwho> billy2007, use your rj-45 connector and run a hardwire to one of your connections
[23:55] <exutux> ok I cannot understand what you need
[23:56] <billy2007> i cant it'll only accept wireless connections
[23:56] <billy2007> and ive only got wireless
[23:56] <captwho> then you need 2 wireless connectors
[23:57] <exutux> 2 wireless connectors at the same AP? nonsense...
[23:57] <Darael> billy2007: You cannot use one wireless device for two connections at once.  If you need to connect a device to a wireless network, surely you could do it directly, rather than trying to bounce it through your laptop?
