| Benkinooby | notsureaboutthis, in your case you want the .deb file. this is the file that is allready compiled. only if you want to comle the programm on your own or if you want to see the source code you should go for the source files. | 00:00 |
| Benkinooby | notsureaboutthis, just curious: what deb do you want to install? | 00:00 |
| w30 | Eitan, the problem is that the Web page is IE only, not for Firefox, Opera, Chrome, etc. | 00:00 |
| w30 | Eitan, thank Bill for that. | 00:01 |
| notsureaboutthis | Benkinooby: this game engine: http://www.panda3d.org/ I assume it's safe because it looks legitimate, i think i'll just try it and hope for the best :) (if i looked at the source code on my own i doubt i'd know what it was even doing anyway) | 00:01 |
| w30 | Eitan, lots of big company apps are built that way and they would find it expensive to change so IE 6 keeps on existing. | 00:02 |
| Benkinooby | notsureaboutthis, hm, seems legit :P | 00:02 |
| Benkinooby | bye | 00:03 |

| === mnepton is now known as mneptok | ||

| Jordan_U | qazplm: I would personally recommend going with ecryptfs or other native linux encryption options. They are better supported and don't have the licensing issues of truecrypt. | 00:05 |
| qazplm | Yea, I guess I will just use the /home encryption ubuntu provides | 00:05 |
| ActionParsnip | qazplm: personally I wouldnt bother encrypting, too many headaches | 00:05 |
| qazplm | and truecrypt on my windows aprtition | 00:05 |
| qazplm | Ill add teh truecrypt bootloader on the GRUB list | 00:06 |

| qazplm | yes | 00:06 |
| ActionParsnip | qazplm: i see, and wil the data be super sensitive? | 00:07 |
| ActionParsnip | qazplm: or is it just MP3s and some random snap from your hols | 00:07 |
| qazplm | ActionParsnip, yes, or else I would simply just make a file and use it as a TC volume | 00:07 |

| * jrib eyes Dr_Willis | 00:20 | |
| Baltazaar | you can use it from console | 00:20 |
| Dr_Willis | theres a few otehr console irc clients.. but those are the top 2 | 00:20 |
| Dr_Willis | i used sirc (or was it pirc?) some perl based one - ages ago | 00:21 |

| edbian | Jordan_U: e2fsck ? | 00:25 |
| Jordan_U | edbian: e2fsck is for extN filesystems only. | 00:26 |

| edbian | Upon closer inspection It's 14.9 Gb | 00:26 |
| Dr_Willis | cjae, no idea. I rarely use the feature. and havent messed with the latest vbox. | 00:26 |
| Dr_Willis | cjae, it used to require the closed source ed.. but i was thinking it changed a bit in the last vbox release | 00:27 |
| edbian | Which means I've only been robbed of 6% of my drive | 00:27 |

| Phr3d13 | how do i take a screenshot of the login screen? | 00:33 |
| edbian | Phr3d13: The easiest way is to have the OS in a virtual machine. | 00:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Phr3d13, i was just windering how you would do that also.... :) | 00:34 |
| Dr_Willis | it is possible to run apps as the 'gdm' user on the gdm login screen... | 00:34 |
| Dr_Willis | but thats a bit extreme. | 00:34 |
| Jordan_U | edbian: Can you post a screenshot of gparted showing this missing space, and pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l"? | 00:34 |

| edbian | kcj: I have my money on you | 00:54 |
| Polah | Blackoakx22, dual booting isn't an issue of general hardware (unless that hardware can't actually run the operating systems you want.). It's more an issue of being capable of installing it (we can help you there) and having enough storage space for both. | 00:54 |

| kcj | filo1234, edbian, Ah. gksu nautils saved the day. :) Thanks for the help. | 01:22 |
| edbian | canu-qumm: Looks like you need to use git | 01:22 |
| canu-qumm | edbian: I got it installed, the output didn't go too well with jumanji. | 01:22 |
| edbian | kcj: Sure. Alternatively you might be able to run the mount command without sudo and then you don't need it at all. | 01:22 |
| godtrunks2 | i typed | 01:22 |
| godtrunks2 | now? | 01:22 |

| jeffy | Really, I tried that but never could fine anything on my computer. | 01:36 |
| toneshifter_ | and than tried rm -r on the final one | 01:36 |

| toneshifter_ | but it keeps returning | 01:37 |

| chowder | anyone ever installed Ubuntu 11.04 as the dom0 in xen? | 01:38 |

| edbian | necrodearia: What is the IP address of pcA and pcB ? | 01:38 |
| ActionParsnip | necrodearia: route would be the command (with some options) | 01:38 |
| dan__ | usr13, ok, everything is turned to the max | 01:39 |
| Phr3d_13 | ubuntu and user session i think | 01:39 |
| toneshifter_ | edbian two of them have "?" marks in place of permissions rest of the files have rw for my user | 01:39 |
| zaccagnino | i feel kinda selfish coming in here with a animation addon issue | 01:39 |
| edbian | toneshifter_ what? | 01:39 |

| bazhang | Phr3d_13, thats it? "ubuntu" and "user" ? | 01:39 |
| edbian | toneshifter_: They have ?'s ? | 01:39 |
| edbian | That's bad | 01:39 |
| Phr3d_13 | bazhang, it looks blue and has a clock centered on the top | 01:39 |
| usr13 | dan__: Is the sound card correctly identified at the top of the screen? | 01:39 |
| necrodearia | edbian, pcA (ethernet) is .29, pcB (wireless) is .101 | 01:39 |
| toneshifter_ | edbian yes | 01:40 |
| toneshifter_ | 2 of them | 01:40 |
| edbian | toneshifter_: try using sudo | 01:40 |
| chowder | Has anyone here ever used the xen hypervisor? I want to run it on my laptop with Ubuntu 11.04 as the dom0. I've looked online for a how-to but to no avail. Any ideas? | 01:40 |
| edbian | toneshifter_: Sounds like the files are corrupted | 01:40 |
| dan__ | usr13, yes | 01:40 |
| necrodearia | edbian, pcA is static, pcB is dynamic | 01:40 |
| usr13 | dan__: Hit the right arrow repeatedly until you get to Mic. | 01:40 |
| edbian | necrodearia: Can they both ping the router? | 01:40 |
| Phr3d_13 | !xen | 01:40 |
| dan__ | usr13, I've done that, all levels are maxed out | 01:40 |
| ubottu | XEN is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. Information on installing it for Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xen | 01:40 |
| edbian | necrodearia: I assume they have the same first 3 octets? | 01:40 |
| usr13 | dan__: Do you see the MM at bottom of the Mic collum? | 01:41 |
| toneshifter_ | edbian thats why i want to delete entire filder | 01:41 |
| sqadfafsdgf | hi everyone | 01:41 |
| zaccagnino | anybody have an idea why i can get all the compiz animations working except the additional ones airplane blur beam ect. | 01:41 |

| sqadfafsdgf | could you help me | 01:41 |
| necrodearia | edbian, yes, same first 3 octetts | 01:41 |
| edbian | toneshifter_: sudo rm -rf that folder (careful with that command!) | 01:41 |
| necrodearia | edbian, yes both can ping router | 01:41 |
| toneshifter_ | sudo ls -l same story | 01:41 |
| sqadfafsdgf | i want to install linux mint or ubuntu | 01:41 |
| edbian | necrodearia: But neither one can ping the other? | 01:41 |
| usr13 | dan__: Is it highlighted? (Hit the letter m to toggle back and forth.) | 01:41 |
| sqadfafsdgf | but im on windows 7 | 01:41 |
| necrodearia | oh wait | 01:41 |
| sqadfafsdgf | and i was told i have to reformat and all that sh*t | 01:41 |
| bazhang | sqadfafsdgf, www.ubuntu.com for the iso | 01:41 |
| dan__ | usr13, it is now highlighted | 01:42 |
| sqadfafsdgf | ya but i dont want to reformat | 01:42 |
| usr13 | dan__: If the MM is highlighted, that means the Mic is muted. | 01:42 |
| necrodearia | edbian, pcB (wireless/dynamic/101) cannot ping the router | 01:42 |
| edbian | necrodearia: waiting... | 01:42 |
| sqadfafsdgf | i dont want to use a livecd | 01:42 |
| edbian | necrodearia: That's bad. Is pcB online? | 01:42 |
| sqadfafsdgf | and i dont want to reformat my whole harddrive | 01:42 |
| toneshifter_ | cannot remove: directory not empty | 01:42 |
| dan__ | usr13, it is now a highlighted 00 | 01:42 |
| bazhang | !enter | sqadfafsdgf | 01:42 |
| ubottu | sqadfafsdgf: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 01:42 |
| necrodearia | edbian, yes, pcB is connected to Internet | 01:42 |
| sqadfafsdgf | bazhang what do i do! | 01:42 |
| usr13 | dan__: 00 means it is tuerned all the way down. Hit the up arrow to turn it up. | 01:43 |
| bazhang | sqadfafsdgf, put everything on *one* line, for starters. | 01:43 |
| sqadfafsdgf | yes besides that | 01:43 |
| edbian | necrodearia: What do you get when you ping the router? | 01:43 |
| dan__ | usr13, hmm, its 00, but its all the way up to two bars of red | 01:43 |
| toneshifter_ | <sqadfafsdgf> use punctuation marks instead enter | 01:43 |
| zaccagnino | sqadfafsdgf, did you try using wubi | 01:43 |
| toneshifter_ | edbian any ideas ? | 01:43 |
| edbian | necrodearia: pcB should be able to ping it's own gateway (this is DHCP wifi?) | 01:43 |
| sqadfafsdgf | i dont want to use wubi | 01:43 |
| sqadfafsdgf | i want all linux | 01:43 |
| necrodearia | edbian, When I (pcA/ethernet/29) ping the router, I get lines like 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_req=1 ttl=254 time=0.404 ms | 01:43 |
| edbian | toneshifter_: I told you sudo rm -rf that folder but be careful with that ocmmand | 01:43 |
| usr13 | dan__: Do you also see Mic Select ? | 01:43 |
| bazhang | sqadfafsdgf, please stop with the enter key. | 01:43 |
| necrodearia | edbian, yes, dhcp wifi | 01:44 |
| sqadfafsdgf | im sorry im rly angry because i lost my TV remote | 01:44 |
| edbian | necrodearia: That's good. That's a good ping. What do you get when B pings the router? | 01:44 |
| toneshifter_ | edbian i did - cannot delete (directory not empty) | 01:44 |
| zaccagnino | then the drive has to be formatted | 01:44 |
| dan__ | usr13, I don | 01:44 |
| dan__ | t see mic select | 01:44 |
| toneshifter_ | i also tried sudo rm -r _name | 01:44 |
| sqadfafsdgf | if i reformat my drive and install ubuntu, if i want to go to windows for some reason at a later point do i have to reformat the drive again | 01:44 |
| necrodearia | edbian, http://privatepaste.com/2f220ca279 | 01:44 |
| sm0ke | anyone know how to get a transparent framebuffer splash in ubuntu? | 01:45 |
| zaccagnino | yes lol | 01:45 |
| toneshifter_ | "cannot remove - no such file or directory" | 01:45 |
| edbian | toneshifter_: You're not using -r then | 01:45 |
| sm0ke | ive done this dozens of times in slack but ubuntu seems to hate me | 01:45 |
| bazhang | !dualboot > sqadfafsdgf | 01:45 |
| ubottu | sqadfafsdgf, please see my private message | 01:45 |
| usr13 | dan__: Try and change, maybe what it is on now is for the external Mic. Plug in an external Mic and see. | 01:45 |
| sqadfafsdgf | i dont want to dualboot | 01:45 |
| zaccagnino | just use wubi and make linux half the drive its more than enough for a linux based os | 01:45 |
| toneshifter_ | edbian tried both | 01:45 |
| edbian | necrodearia: what is the gateway address on pcB ? | 01:45 |
| sqadfafsdgf | i DONT want to DUALBOOT | 01:45 |
| dan__ | usr13, dont have an external mic | 01:45 |
| edbian | toneshifter_: Then I don't know | 01:45 |
| bazhang | sqadfafsdgf, seems you know what you dont want, but not what you *do want | 01:45 |
| zaccagnino | can anybody fix my airplane issue serious question | 01:45 |
| toneshifter_ | edian when i used just rf it says "directory not empty" | 01:45 |
| bazhang | zaccagnino, with compiz? | 01:46 |
| zaccagnino | yes | 01:46 |
| zaccagnino | please | 01:46 |
| bazhang | zaccagnino, ask in #compiz as well | 01:46 |
| sqadfafsdgf | #compwiz | 01:47 |
| usr13 | dan__: You may need to mute or turn off another input device. | 01:47 |
| theferret | hi all, not sure if this is the right place to ask but I'm looking for this specific package: pam-1.1.0 | 01:47 |
| dan__ | usr13, ah, that sounds likely | 01:47 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | theferret: why do you need that specific package? | 01:47 |
| billy2007 | what would be the best virtual machine to install vista ultimate iso on | 01:47 |
| usr13 | dan__: 00 at the bottom indicates that it is turned down or dissabled. | 01:47 |
| bazhang | billy2007, vbox | 01:47 |
| toneshifter_ | edbian thanks anyways | 01:48 |
| toneshifter_ | :) | 01:48 |
| theferret | TheEvilPhoenix: It's for a pentest lab, there's a local priv escalation exploit in there which I'd like to use for the lab. | 01:48 |
| usr13 | dan__: Did you try turing up the Mic? | 01:48 |
| sqadfafsdgf | so how would i refromat my drive for linux | 01:48 |
| Phr3d13 | bazhang, recovery, user session, and gnome | 01:48 |
| dan__ | usr13, mic is turned all the way up, i dont know how to get it off of 00 | 01:48 |
| edbian | toneshifter_: good luck! | 01:48 |
| bazhang | sqadfafsdgf, the installer will do that for you. www.ubuntu.com for the iso | 01:48 |
| edbian | necrodearia: what is the gateway address on pcB ? | 01:48 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | theferret: i'd recommend a virtual environment for any vulnerable packages | 01:48 |
| sqadfafsdgf | rly? | 01:48 |
| godtrunks2 | why i cannot install anything on unbuntu 10.40?? | 01:48 |
| necrodearia | edbian, gateway is 192.168.1.1 output of `ifconfig -a` http://privatepaste.com/f3067a8b41 output of `route` http://privatepaste.com/f1f94216c7 | 01:48 |
| sqadfafsdgf | if i wanted to install windows would the windows installer do it for me aswell? | 01:48 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | theferret: its also VERY likely its not going to be available in the repos or package managers, if its got an exploit | 01:48 |
| godtrunks2 | i have all the time error 2 | 01:48 |
| usr13 | dan__: Is your audio chip correctly identified? Which one is it? | 01:49 |
| Phr3d13 | how do i get gdm back to ubuntu defaults? | 01:49 |
| theferret | TheEvilPhoenix: It is in a vm, I'm just wondering if anyone might have a direct link to it. | 01:49 |
| godtrunks2 | if i enter command make i have error 2 | 01:49 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | theferret: did you try an apt-cache search? | 01:49 |
| dan__ | usr13, Realtek ALC883 | 01:49 |
| Inkura | Can anyone help me setup a NAT from ppp0 to eth0? | 01:49 |
| theferret | TheEvilPhoenix: No, I haven't. I'll have a look at it. Thanks! | 01:49 |
| bazhang | Phr3d13, you somehow uninstalled unity? and classic as well? | 01:49 |
| Inkura | Tried ufw, didn't wokr. | 01:50 |
| Inkura | work | 01:50 |
| edbian | necrodearia: Someone ran a command and then pcB could ping out? pcB isn't a vm or anything right? | 01:50 |
| Phr3d13 | i'm in unity right now and i can't stand it | 01:50 |
| godtrunks2 | what shoud i do so i can install some drivers? | 01:50 |
| bazhang | Inkura, what did not work | 01:50 |
| usr13 | dan__: Turn the master channel down, open another terminal and type cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp and then trun up master enough so that you can hear the noise. | 01:50 |
| necrodearia | edbian, nope, not a vm, a laptop | 01:50 |
| blind | what controls the bluetooth file pushing and etc when plugging a usb bluetooth adapter in on gnome. it just pops up in the status bar, but what's the program/service behind that? | 01:50 |
| Inkura | bazhang, the NAt. | 01:50 |
| sqadfafsdgf | so ubuntu automatically reformats the hard drive? | 01:51 |
| bazhang | Phr3d13, if you are on 11.04 then classic is an option | 01:51 |
| edbian | necrodearia: what does sudo iptables -l look like ? | 01:51 |
| Phr3d13 | but its not there, and my gdm isn't all ubuntu-ified | 01:51 |
| bazhang | Inkura, what about iptables | 01:51 |
| Phr3d13 | its blue background with a clock centered at the to | 01:51 |
| Phr3d13 | top | 01:51 |
| Inkura | bazhang too complicated for me. | 01:51 |
| dan__ | usr13, happens around 6 | 01:51 |
| dan__ | usr13, i just hear static | 01:51 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | Inkura: its probably the most efficient way to do that kind of NAT forwarding though | 01:52 |
| BiggFREE | Is Virtualbox-guest-additions adapted to 11.04 of Ubuntu ? | 01:52 |
| zaccagnino | asked in #compiz no response | 01:52 |
| usr13 | dan__: Ctrl-c to stop it. | 01:52 |
| bazhang | Phr3d13, what did you do to get to this state? no classic as an option, only gnome (2 or 3?) | 01:52 |
| sm0ke | anyone familiar with plymouth customization? | 01:52 |
| dan__ | usr13, yup | 01:52 |
| Phr3d13 | i upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04 did some updates after and re-started, which gave me the different gdm | 01:53 |
| usr13 | dan__: Ok, well not sure why the Mic is not working. You don't have a port for an external Mic? | 01:53 |
| Inkura | TheEvilPhoenix, I see. Thanks, I guess I'll go check for some guides. | 01:53 |
| sqadfafsdgf | so many people | 01:53 |
| sqadfafsdgf | talking at once | 01:53 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | Inkura: you could just ask bazhang for help x] | 01:53 |
| usr13 | dan__: Is your system fully updated? | 01:53 |
| Phr3d13 | when i was on 10.10 i installed xfce / xubuntu | 01:53 |
| bazhang | sqadfafsdgf, did you have any actual support questions? | 01:53 |
| dan__ | usr13, i have a port, just no mic, I upgraded to 10.04 about 1 month ago | 01:53 |
| Nobgul-bnc | sqadfafsdgf, that is why we suggest that when talking with someone you use the name at the front of what you are typing. | 01:54 |
| bazhang | Phr3d13, try installing ubuntu-desktop package , see what that brings in | 01:54 |
| Inkura | bazhang, can you help me setup a NAT? | 01:54 |
| blind | When plugging a USB Bluetooth adapter in, a little bluetooth icon shows up in the status bar. what's the name of the program that controls that? | 01:54 |
| Phr3d13 | i did that like 5 times now | 01:55 |
| BiggFREE | Is Virtualbox-guest-additions adapted to 11.04 of Ubuntu ? | 01:55 |
| bazhang | BiggFREE, sure | 01:55 |
| usr13 | dan__: Well, find an external Mic someplace and test it to see if that is the active Mic port. | 01:55 |
| Nobgul-bnc | blind, gnome-bluetooth may be the program | 01:55 |
| Phr3d13 | BiggFREE, i think so, i had to download a new one recently | 01:55 |
| BiggFREE | bazhang ... I got errors | 01:56 |
| dan__ | usr13, I bet thats it | 01:56 |
| blind | Nobgul-bnc: no, i tried that, there's no gnome-bluetooth installed | 01:56 |
| bazhang | BiggFREE, which one, the -ose or the #vbox ones | 01:56 |
| Inkura | I don't have two network cards though, or does the modem (mobile broadband) count as a network card aswell? | 01:56 |
| Nobgul-bnc | blind, bluez | 01:56 |
| dan__ | usr13, how would i change that? | 01:56 |
| zaccagnino | i just want my animations to work | 01:56 |
| usr13 | dan__: I don't know. | 01:56 |
| === BlackZ is now known as Guest67368 | ||
| usr13 | dan__: May not be able to. | 01:57 |
| BiggFREE | Phr3d13 bazhang .... I don't know; I'll check it ty :) | 01:57 |
| bazhang | BiggFREE, -ose is from ubuntu repos, the other are from the website | 01:57 |
| Nobgul-bnc | blind, if not then just bluetooth. It sahould be /etc/init.d/bluetooth | 01:57 |

| Nobgul-bnc | billy2007, are you using 11.04? | 02:10 |
| zaccagnino | yeah theres no other options i can enable i tried shortening time between intense effects i just want my window to become a paper airplane and fly its way home is that too much to ask | 02:10 |
| billy2007 | Nobgul-bnc, i dont know the newest release is what im using | 02:10 |
| sladfra | I am in the middle of upgrading from Ubuntu 9.10 to 10.04 LTS. It presented me with a prompt "Replace the customized configuration file /etc/sysctl.conf?" but my USB mouse and keyboard aren't responding! I've tried another USB mouse and keyboard (on various USB ports), and even dug up an old PS/2 mouse. Is there a way to reset the mouse without resetting the computer? I tried modprobe -r usb_storage but that module is in use. Sug | 02:10 |
| bazhang | Phr3d13, just trying to figure out how you uninstalled classic | 02:10 |
| Nobgul-bnc | billy2007, type in terminal uname -a | 02:10 |
| ActionParsnip | billy2007: sudo apt-get install virtualbox-4.0 | 02:11 |
| afeijo | I had to change my /var from partition to a folder, now I have errors like access denied to files in /var :p how can I fix it? | 02:11 |
| ActionParsnip | billy2007: you may need to run: sudo apt-get update first | 02:11 |
| edbian | afeijo: Are the erros in the log files or from you trying to view them? | 02:12 |
| sladfra | p.s. I have remote commandline access to the machine | 02:12 |
| afeijo | edbian, 3 errors I see while loading ubuntu (after a reboot) | 02:12 |
| afeijo | edbian, mysql cant run (it has a socket file in /var) | 02:12 |
| zaccagnino | damn wright brothers can get a pile of wood flying and i cnat get a virtual plane to fly probably 5 inches and crash | 02:12 |
| ActionParsnip | sladfra: sounds like you added to the file, not sure about the keyboard / mouse stopping. If you unplug then plug them back in is it better? | 02:12 |
| afeijo | /var has all ownership to root:root | 02:13 |
| bazhang | ActionParsnip, where is vbox-4.0 package from | 02:13 |
| edbian | afeijo: Well obviously mySQL needs to access some file in there. I'm not sure what the permissions should be. | 02:13 |
| sladfra | ActionParsnip: I tried unplugging but that didn't work. I honestly don't care about my changes to the configuration file, I just want the upgrade to continue without restarting the computer in the middle (which I assume might brick it). | 02:14 |
| billy2007 | ActionParsnip, after update i try install and get http://pastebin.com/ju7BV32U | 02:14 |
| afeijo | edbian, it appears that the permissions are OK, I used cp -ru before I did the change | 02:14 |
| pythonirc101 | What is a good compressed file system to use on ubuntu? (Like NTFS Compressed on windows). | 02:14 |
| edbian | afeijo: Then I'm not sure. permission denied is a permissions error | 02:14 |
| edbian | I'm quit sure | 02:14 |
| afeijo | yeah | 02:14 |

| bazhang | RenaKunisaki, this is 11.04? | 02:26 |
| RenaKunisaki | yes | 02:26 |
| sladfra | Also, are you putting your sed command in single quotes? Otherwise your shell might do something with it | 02:27 |

| bazhang | billy2007, repeating quickly will not get a quick answer | 02:56 |
| usr13 | Phr3d13: Is your screensize resolution correct for the monitor? | 02:56 |
| Phr3d13 | usr13, http://i55.tinypic.com/i23kub.jpg | 02:57 |
| Phr3d13 | i think so | 02:57 |

| billy2007 | anyone know how to remove a program completly yet im going back to windows soon this is stupid the simpleist of tasks become a chore with linux | 03:07 |
| NewToUbuntu | billy2007: use the software center | 03:08 |
| bazhang | NewToUbuntu, that happens default when you boot the live cd | 03:08 |
| NewToUbuntu | bazhang: I have the unity interface on the live cd and I want to try it without the live cd | 03:08 |
| bazhang | NewToUbuntu, the classic option? | 03:09 |

| iheartubuntu | what type of games do you like to play? | 03:12 |
| i2iot | Starcraft is cool | 03:12 |
| Darael | i2iot: I reasonably regularly game on Ubuntu. It does depend what you want to play, but between the native games and the fact that only one of the Windows games I like to play doesn't work in Wine, I'm covered :) | 03:13 |

| Darael | i2iot: You're in luck. Starcraft has a gold rating in the Wine AppDB, as does Starcraft II - if you want to run those, they should be fine too. The AppDB is well worth checking up on. For RTS, Warzone 2100 seems pretty popular. | 03:16 |

| GSF1200S | is there a way to force a terminal to open an app on a particular screen in terms of how you open the terminal? Im using tilda on my second screen (opened using DISPLAY=:0.1 tilda &), and whenever I execute a command for an application, it opens on my first screen.

| bazhang | billy2007, stop the cursing | 03:22 |
| Darael | !ohmy | billy2007 | 03:22 |
| ubottu | billy2007: Please remember that all Ubuntu IRC channels share the same attitude of providing friendly and polite interaction with all users of all ages and cultures. Basically, this means no foul language and no abuse towards others. | 03:22 |
| ohzie | billy2007: you've gotta watch your language or someone's going to get mad! I will try to help you, though. =) | 03:22 |
| ohzie | billy2007: how are you attempting to uninstall it? | 03:22 |
| billy2007 | ohzie ive tried every way imaginable | 03:23 |
| somsip | billy2007: and in what way does it still appear to be installed? | 03:23 |
| billy2007 | through software centere deleting the files directly through terminal using all sorts of commands | 03:23 |
| ohzie | billy2007: Have you done "sudo aptitude purge VirtualBox" ? | 03:23 |
| Darael | alazyworkaholic: Modify $(ls) to replace "ls" with a command that'll get a list of the files that you want. Perhaps "ls *.avi", and change "$file.avi" to "$file". | 03:23 |
| ohzie | billy2007: deleting packages is likely to make something in your system start crying. :[ | 03:24 |
| alazyworkaholic | Dareal & bazhang, thanks! | 03:24 |
| Darael | alazyworkaholic: Note that you'll end up with a heap of *.avi.mpg files, but that's a start. | 03:24 |
| i2iot | how do i kill using the terminal | 03:24 |
| i2iot | just "kill"? | 03:24 |
| Darael | alazyworkaholic: Once you've got that, you can use a batch-renamer, as I'm sure you're aware. | 03:24 |
| ohzie | i2iot: kill psid | 03:24 |
| bazhang | Darael, he quit | 03:24 |
| somsip | i2iot: ps -e, then kill the process id | 03:24 |
| ohzie | i2iot: or you can 'killall nameofprocess' | 03:24 |
| ohzie | i2iot: but kill is much more reliable | 03:25 |
| billy2007 | ohzie you mean like not finding the command aptitude :S | 03:25 |
| Darael | bazhang: So he did. Never mind. | 03:25 |
| ohzie | billy2007: apt-get install aptitude | 03:25 |
| i2iot | which one lets me click the windows i want to kill | 03:25 |
| bazhang | billy2007, you'd need to install aptitude | 03:25 |
| somsip | i2iot: xkill | 03:25 |
| Darael | billy2007, ohzie: apt-get purge works just as well. | 03:25 |
| bazhang | i2iot, you need xkill for that | 03:25 |
| bazhang | alt f2 xkill i2iot | 03:26 |
| i2iot | thats the one | 03:26 |

| iszak | How do I find out what hard drive grub is installed on? | 03:26 |
| pythonirc101 | I just installed quantlib-examples -- when i try to run examples/test/QuantlibTestSuite.py -- I get an error -- ImportError: No module named termstructures -- does anyone know where this file is? | 03:26 |
| Darael | iszak: Would it be terribly unhelpful to suggest disconnecting them in turn until the machine won't boot? I suppose it would. Sorry. | 03:26 |
| iszak | Darael, I could certainly do that, but it's be terribly time consuming more so than simply executing a command perhaps that could find out for me. | 03:27 |

| Tbruff13 | hey can someone help me please | 03:29 |
| Darael | pythonirc101: The best I've got is to use "apt-file search", if it's not already installed, for which you'll first need to install the apt-file package. This assumes that termstructures is a pymodule that can be found in some Ubuntu package, which it may not be... | 03:29 |
| Darael | !ask | Tbruff13 | 03:29 |
| ubottu | Tbruff13: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 03:29 |
| usr13 | Tbruff13: No, we have reached our quota for supporte issues. Try again tomorrow. | 03:29 |
| pythonirc101 | Darael: Its a packaging error...the file termstructures is in quantlib-examples but is ".gz" -- unzipping it makes it work | 03:29 |

| billy2007 | Tbruff13, you cant really i had same problem with iphone | 03:30 |
| Darael | Tbruff13: AIUI, the ipod touch is supported by most programs in the more recent releases: GTKpod and Banshee certainly are both supposed to be able to deal with it. | 03:31 |
| bazhang | Tbruff13, do you have banshee? that works fine here | 03:31 |

| gusg | I have a Wubi install. According to GParted, my /host partition has 41GBs left, though Ubuntu reports I have ~100MBs left. Can I resize the root.disk? | 03:31 |

| bazhang | gusg, resize the wubi? sure, instructions at the wubi guide | 03:32 |

| billy2007 | hi i need help with vbox i found this forum http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1198060 it shows my problem and a solution but when i type sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup it says command not found? | 04:03 |
| zelozelos | ubuntu24234, ok, durring install youll get to a partition optons menu, you want to set it to manual, | 04:03 |
| bazhang | Barami, then there is not one | 04:03 |
| bazhang | !gnome3 | Barami | 04:03 |
| ubottu | Barami: Gnome 3 is not currently supported on Ubuntu. A PPA for natty is available at https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3 but these packages are EXPERIMENTAL and UNSTABLE, will break Unity and possibly other parts of your system, and cannot be downgraded safely. | 04:03 |
| zelozelos | ubuntu24234, if you do it right it wont mess with windows at all, did you defrag windows 1st? | 04:03 |
| ubuntu24234 | zelozelos: is that after a screen that gives the options replace windows and something else? | 04:03 |
| uuser123 | bazhang: i have added that line with vi ,added in last | 04:03 |
| Roasted_ | Which multimedia applications besides Rhythmbox and Banshee allow you to synchronize a playlist to your media device? | 04:03 |
| ubuntu24234 | zelozelos: no i didn't | 04:03 |
| Barami | I know. But i have a problem about input method with gtk3. | 04:04 |
| zelozelos | ubuntu24234, is it a new or almost new win install? | 04:04 |
| Barami | i can't find answer on the web. | 04:04 |
| bazhang | Barami, its offtopic here. so please dont ask any further. | 04:04 |
| ubuntu24234 | zelozelos: 6 months | 04:04 |
| zelozelos | ubuntu24234, ok you need 2 defrag 1st unless its 7 which does it automatically, vista will if you had it set to do it | 04:04 |
| ubuntu24234 | zelozelos: it is windows seven | 04:05 |
| zelozelos | ubuntu24234, this is because you will be squishing your win partition and making room for linux and swap | 04:05 |
| uuser123 | bazhang: last time when i download this group of package it went through | 04:05 |
| ubuntu24234 | zelozelos: so do I have to defrag if the install is windows seven | 04:05 |
| maestro | hi, I'm having an issue upgrading to 11.04, I get this error at the end of the download bit: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/k/kde4libs/libkhtml5_4.6.2-0ubuntu4_i386.deb Size mismatch | 04:06 |
| zelozelos | ubuntu24234, personally i always start with defrag 1st when messing around with a windows partition | 04:06 |
| uuser123 | but when i try to download .rar file after that i am facing this problem | 04:06 |
| ubuntu24234 | zelozelos: ok will do then | 04:06 |
| ubuntu24234 | zelozelos: thanks :-) | 04:06 |
| zelozelos | ubuntu24234, ok so after that when you get to the partition manager part of the install you have 2 click install side by side, then scroll the amount of disk space you want to allocate | 04:06 |
| ubuntu24234 | Ok | 04:07 |
| zelozelos | good luck | 04:07 |
| Barami | i know, but i had been found channel that can have discussion about gnome on this server.( #ubuntu-next? #ubuntu-gen? ) but i forgot the correct channel name.; | 04:07 |
| ubuntu24234 | thanks | 04:07 |
| bazhang | Barami, there is none.. | 04:07 |
| bazhang | Barami, as I said 11.04 does not support gnome3 | 04:07 |

| uuser123 | when ever i try to download any package with sudo apt-get install owasp-* or even sudo apt-get install owa* it give me error with could not find package owasp-wte-s2-.rar | 04:09 |
| MrCleanWithHair | uuser123: why are you using a * | 04:09 |
| nagchampa | I've run into a problem where I have a fakeraid (raid 0, intel, required for dual booting) partitioned using gpt and dmraid doesn't automatically intialise the partitions | 04:09 |
| uuser123 | becase there is a lot of package | 04:09 |
| nagchampa | i can use kpartx to initialise the partitions after startup, but i'm wondering what the best way to have this occur automatically at startup | 04:10 |
| nagchampa | i'm thinking creating a boot script to run before local partitions are mounted, so i can add the partitions on the raid to fstab | 04:11 |
| nagchampa | just wondering if anyone has a better option | 04:11 |

| saliak | has anyone here been able to start a daemon from their /etc/rc.local script? i start one that foks an di see its output in boot.log, but it stops running | 04:42 |
| billy_ | ActionParsnip, 4.0.2 i think you helped me uninstall it earlier and it hasnt worked on reinstall ever since | 04:42 |

| ActionParsnip | billy_: do the messages you posted get made when you try and launch virtualbox itself or is it in the OS you have installed in a virtual system. | 04:44 |
| chocolates | ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/HRgbTcTS | 04:44 |
| billy_ | as soon as ive made the vm and try to launch it | 04:44 |

| Senjai | HackNewton, xinerama broke the GUI | 04:47 |

| infinigod | what do i put in the sudoers file to allow a user ALL access except for "su" | 04:49 |
| wildbat | ubuntu24234: you need to resize partitions ~ and make a new one for ubuntu . you can use Gparted ~ to do it you can only have four primary partition ~ so you have to backup one ~ then delete it , then make a logicial partition so you can have more then four partitions. | 04:49 |
| Senjai | Anyone? | 04:49 |
| ubuntu24234 | wildbat: so the ubuntu installer can't do that | 04:49 |
| ActionParsnip | billy_: you can use user management to add the user to the group, there are many guides on virtualbox on the which I think you should use rather than guessing, they show you how to do it properly | 04:49 |
| ubuntu24234 | wildbat: can I run gparted off the live usb | 04:49 |
| bullgard4 | ubuntu24234: Yes. | 04:50 |
| e_t_ | billy_: type "groups" on the command line and press Enter. That command shows you all the groups your user is a member of. Look for "vboxusers" in the list. | 04:50 |
| ubuntu24234 | bullgard4: to both questions? | 04:50 |
| bullgard4 | ubuntu24234: No. | 04:50 |

| ActionParsnip | saliak: with a space between the last character of the command and the ampersand | 04:57 |
| saliak | ActionParsnip: it's already running as a daemon, is that still necessary? | 04:57 |
| ActionParsnip | saliak: if you want it running in rc.local and not hang the boot, you'll need it | 04:57 |
| saliak | ActionParsnip: looking at syslog and my debug messages, it seems to get a SIGTERM message | 04:57 |
| saliak | ActionParsnip : so i feel like I should be able to do this the right way, using init.d scripts. so I made one that starts the daemon when i call it manually, but when I boot up, there's no sign of it ever running. what are the log files that would help debug that? | 04:58 |
| billy_ | ActionParsnip, right i wasnt marked as a user i am now should i restart and see if this takes effect | 04:58 |

| zztr | I have a wireless router with one ethernet port, a tablet with no ethernet ports, and a desktop with no wireless card but two ethernet ports. I can plug the desktop in, and plug the router into the desktop, but I don't know how to give internet access to the router through the second ethernet port. from my searching it seems like it should be a single iptables command or something, but i can't figure it out and am having trouble se | 05:22 |
| e_t_ | billy_: Let's do this: "sudo apt-get remove --purge virtualbox-ose" to completely remove it, then "sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose virtualbox-ose-dkms" to reinstall. Please pastebin any output at all from the second command. | 05:22 |

| bhavesh | im really sick with it.. | 05:32 |
| SockPants | i'm having trouble installing the jdk | 05:32 |
| e_t_ | billy_: OK. Run the process again, but restart your computer after you uninstall and before you reinstall. That should clear out the kernel modules and allow them to be reinstalled. | 05:32 |
| SockPants | the repositories i need don't work | 05:32 |
| bhavesh | SockPants: for Netbeans IDE u need jdk from sun java systems | 05:32 |
| bhavesh | SockPants: not openjdk | 05:32 |
| SockPants | bhavesh: it's for adb | 05:32 |
| ActionParsnip | bhavesh: is your RAM healthy? | 05:32 |
| bhavesh | ActionParsnip: yes its 2GB and a lot of swap space.. | 05:33 |
| ActionParsnip | bhavesh: when did you last test it? | 05:33 |
| bhavesh | ActionParsnip: it freezes like for 5 seconds after every few minutes | 05:33 |
| bhavesh | ActionParsnip: what do u mean by test it? | 05:33 |
| spass | bhavesh: memtest | 05:33 |
| SockPants | i tried to add the repo but it returns 404 on update: add-apt-repository ppa:sun-java-community-team/sun-java6 | 05:33 |
| ActionParsnip | bhavesh: in order to know your RAM is healthy you must have tested it. When did you last test it? | 05:34 |
| bhavesh | ActionParsnip: i dunno how to test it, memtest returns command not found | 05:34 |
| ActionParsnip | bhavesh: then when I said "is the ram healthy" why did you say yes? | 05:34 |
| bhavesh | ActionParsnip: I thought u meant "did u have enough RAM space" | 05:35 |
| bhavesh | SockPants: http://dailyubuntu.wordpress.com/2011/06/15/installing-java-jre-and-jdk-netbeans/ | 05:35 |
| spass | behanw: you have to run memtest from CD (like Ubuntu Alternate CD) | 05:35 |
| bhavesh | SockPants: This might help you | 05:35 |
| ActionParsnip | bhavesh: no, it's quite simple | 05:35 |
| ActionParsnip | bhavesh: hold shift at boot, select memtest from the grub menu | 05:35 |
| bhavesh | ActionParsnip: oh yes I see those things in my GRUB menu.. | 05:36 |
| bhavesh | ActionParsnip: ill just do it | 05:36 |
| spass | behanw: if there will be red lines after like 20-30 minutes then your memory makes error. Like alzheimer :) | 05:37 |
| billy2007 | i havent yet re installed vbox but theres still vbox files in the init.d folder? | 05:38 |

| olskolirc | mpsnare.iesnare.com from adobe | 05:45 |
| olskolirc | its a spy | 05:45 |
| olskolirc | it got past my ssh and proxy | 05:45 |

| vivanov | how to set keyboard hotkeys in oneiric ? | 05:47 |
| e_t_ | billy2007: OK. That's why it's not working now. The virtualbox-ose version is only at 4.0.4 while the one from Oracle is 4.0.10. It won't replace a newer version with an older version. | 05:47 |
| zeroedout | ah.... um, you can set something in /etc/hosts to redirect it to another ip......... I think | 05:47 |
| DasEi | crackerjackz: lookup pid in htop | 05:47 |
| billy2007 | so i need to go online to download it | 05:48 |
| zeroedout | that's in response to olskolirc | 05:48 |
| e_t_ | billy2007: Do you still have the downloaded file from Oracle? | 05:48 |
| billy2007 | no | 05:48 |
| erle- | is there a subchan for the gnome ppa? | 05:48 |
| crackerjackz | DasEi, pidof htop returns nothing | 05:48 |
| olskolirc | host.deny zeroedout ? | 05:48 |
| DasEi | crackerjackz: or sudo killall update-manager; htop would list your running processes | 05:49 |
| crackerjackz | DasEi, is htop a GUI of top or something? | 05:49 |
| upgrdman | how do i verify my ethernet card is running in gigabit mode? file transfers are topping out at around 11 - 12MB with a gigabit router and other box with known gigabit ethernet | 05:49 |
| e_t_ | billy2007: Download it again, then "sudo dpkg -i /path/to/downloaded/file" | 05:49 |
| DasEi | if htop isn't running, it will have no pid, and yes more comfortable top | 05:49 |
| zeroedout | olskolirc: i belive hosts.deny is for denying hosts accessing your machine. you want an entry in /etc/hosts that redirects querys from xxx.com to $null | 05:50 |
| billy2007 | i dont need to uninstall the old version again do i | 05:50 |
| erle- | upgrdman, you will get a gigabit transfer rate only under perfect conditions (good cable etc.) | 05:50 |
| crackerjackz | DasEi, thanks | 05:50 |
| erle- | upgrdman, "gigabit" is just the name of the new standard, not a guarantee of transfer rate | 05:50 |
| e_t_ | billy2007: It wouldn't hurt to do so, just to be safe. | 05:50 |
| DasEi | crackerjackz: if you killed it, run : sudo dpkg --configure -a | 05:50 |
| olskolirc | how would I make that look zeroedout please? | 05:50 |
| olskolirc | direct it back to adobe lol zeroedout | 05:51 |
| erle- | upgrdman, you can see that you have a gigabit card by connecting two cards directly without special cables | 05:51 |
| crackerjackz | DasEi, okay, and what does that do? | 05:51 |
| DasEi | crackerjackz: checks for dpkg state, as you interupted in unkwon state for now | 05:52 |
| upgrdman | erle-, i know but its topping out at almost exactly 100Mb | 05:52 |
| realjoe | does lucid run on zacate boards? | 05:52 |
| crackerjackz | DasEi, i see, you have any idea why it froze? looks like a kernel update and things to do with the new kernel | 05:53 |
| e_t_ | olskolirc: sudo bash -c "echo 0.0.0.0 mpsnare.iesnare.com >> /etc/hosts" Be sure to use TWO > characters. | 05:53 |
| DasEi | crackerjackz: no, you could check the logs though, mostly something wrong with network | 05:53 |
| olskolirc | thanks :-) e_t_ | 05:54 |

| MK`` | Ever since I upgraded to 11.04, file opening has been a bit off. If I try to open a file of unknown type, instead of sending me to select a program, it throws an error and says "not a folder", but I never set Nautilus as default to open unknown files. Additionally, whenever I download something with Firefox, I can't open it from Firefox's Download window, it throws the same error, even if the type is known. | 05:58 |
| crackerjackz | !xampp | 05:58 |
| ubottu | We do not support XAMPP installs here. Please use the LAMP stack that is in our repositories; see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP for more information. | 05:58 |
| billy2007 | e_t_, i think this is the one | 05:59 |
| MK`` | And on top of all that, whenever I do open a file or folder, the "Opening [folder]..." thing that gets to the taskbar lasts way too long, long after it has successfully opened. I can close the folder before the "Opening..." message goes away. | 05:59 |
| olskolirc | block mpsnare.iesnare.com from anywhere else? /etc/hosts.deny? | 06:00 |
| olskolirc | e_t_, | 06:00 |
| MK`` | I won't even go into my other problems at the moment, but how can I restore Ubuntu to, at least, prompt me to select a program when file type is unknown? | 06:01 |
| baldaris | hey why is sudo In -s used? | 06:01 |
| ActionParsnip | Hapsbana1: do you mean ln -s | 06:01 |
| crackerjackz | is there a way to make sudo use a different password rather than the same password i login with? | 06:01 |
| baldaris | ooh thats a l no I lol, my bad | 06:01 |
| ActionParsnip | Hapsbana1: it makes a symbolic link to a file, its like a windows shortcut but more powerful | 06:02 |
| e_t_ | olskolirc: hosts.deny is something different. The entry in /etc/hosts will thoroughly kill the website from that computer. | 06:02 |
| olskolirc | thanks e_t_ | 06:02 |
| e_t_ | olskolirc: When looking up a website, the computer consults /etc/hosts BEFORE looking at DNS, so giving the entry there will prevent it from loading. | 06:03 |

| ubuntu24234 | is ext4 still unstable sometimes or is it good to use | 06:11 |
| Lancelot | brandon_: open the terminal, run sudo nvidia-settings. Under Display Configuration you can enable the other monitor. I'm guessing you just want an extended desktop. Enable it in twinview mode. | 06:11 |
| billy2007 | e_t_, this is result from dpkg command | 06:11 |
| billy2007 | http://pastebin.com/L6kZ8yiV | 06:11 |
| JoeR1__ | ext4 has stabilty issues? | 06:11 |
| e_t_ | billy2007: Spelling or typing errors are most likely. Linux is cAsE sensitive, so "downloads" is different from "Downloads". | 06:12 |
| DasEi | JoeR1__: new to me , no | 06:12 |
| ubuntu24234 | JoeR1__: I found that on a 2009 post on the ubuntu forums and wanted to be sure | 06:12 |
| ubuntu24234 | so I take it the answer is no | 06:12 |
| baldaris | ActionParsnip, is there any software to loginto windows VPS similar to remote desktop in windows? | 06:12 |
| JoeR1__ | Oh ok, cause I'm using ext4 and its the same thing I used on my buddies pc | 06:12 |
| phaidros | ubuntu24234: even though it is preselected and standard by now in ubuntu and others, I have had stability issues. and of course performance issues. having a crypted home and barriers=1 enabled (default!!) rendered my system useless. on other systems I have had data loss due to crashes, with barriers disabled (for performance) | 06:13 |
| phaidros | etx4 ^^ | 06:13 |
| ubuntu24234 | so ext3 to be safe? | 06:13 |
| phaidros | ubuntu24234: personal experience, way more than ext4, yes. I am heading for xfs on performance oriented systems these days | 06:15 |
| ubuntu24234 | phaidros: on non performance just normal installs has ext4 been ok for you | 06:15 |
| phaidros | ubuntu24234: nope. with barriers=1 it rendered even my private laptop newr to unusable | 06:16 |
| ubuntu24234 | Ok.... one sec rebooting to make sure windows works after re partitioning | 06:17 |
| phaidros | ubuntulo1: you can give it a try, it may not be that last OS you will install :) just remember the barriers and other settings to check in fstab in case of heavy iowait and such | 06:17 |

| billy2007 | wildgoose, an xp iso file but it just keeps saying no bootable medium | 06:34 |
| cypha | for me | 06:34 |

| afaty | Hello. | 06:35 |
| afaty | I have some problems in iso-8859-1 to UTF-8 | 06:35 |
| afaty | anyone call help me. | 06:35 |
| afaty | file -ib Readme.txt | 06:36 |
| afaty | text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 | 06:36 |
| wildgoose | billy2007, So you are trying to burn a bootable xp iso? Or use it as a VM | 06:36 |
| tripelb | afaty, you have to state your situation and your problem and your type of setup all on one thingy then see if anyone bites. | 06:36 |
| billy2007 | wildgoose, use it for a vm it is a cracked file so it might be corrupt im trying to get a new one now | 06:37 |
| tripelb | I would like to know how to copy a cd and change it's properties and end up with an avi file. I'll see about learning the reverse later. I have Ubuntu 10.04 | 06:37 |

| pheonixman | hi, does anyone here help me installing Gnome3 in ubuntu 10.10 | 06:39 |
| tripelb | billy2007, I never did get a good XP Home. They ended up short of drivers for PCI stuff and audio gear. But maybe as a virtual machine they'l be good. I'm just reporting my limited experience/ | 06:39 |
| ActionParsnip | !manual | Guest22037 | 06:39 |
| ubottu | Guest22037: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 06:39 |
| faze` | alesan, i was joking. anyways, you should be able to edit /etc/sudoers to do passwordless sud | 06:39 |
| faze` | o | 06:39 |
| faze` | alesan, use sudo visudo /etc/sudoers when you do that as editing the sudoers file another way can leave you locked out, and visudo will check for errors | 06:40 |
| Guest22037 | i just downloaded it! | 06:40 |
| wildgoose | !gnome3 > pheonixman | 06:40 |
| ubottu | pheonixman, please see my private message | 06:40 |
| e_t_ | afaty: Why do you need to change the encoding? | 06:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Phoenix6780: there is a ppa. Gnome3 isn't stable in Maverick though and its a 3rd party repo you use at your own risk | 06:40 |
| tripelb | Guest21598, Yes, but there is more than one way to learn. You can install and go. You can read a book. You can read the Introduction to Linux html site I like. Or all at once. Depends on your experience. | 06:41 |
| billy2007 | tripelb, all i want it for is itunes | 06:41 |
| pheonixman | wildgoose: so there is no way i can install it in 10.10 | 06:41 |
| Guest22037 | is the book called linux bible or running linux good? | 06:41 |
| billy2007 | wildgoose, your not helping me with piracy your helping me get an ubuntu program working :) | 06:41 |

| afaty | 我只是想知道为什么。 | 06:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Phoenix6780: a simple search online would have found that for you | 06:45 |
| afaty | I just want to know why. | 06:45 |
| * com64 checks the moon | 06:45 | |
| tripelb | what's the program for looking at a DVD and ending up with an AVI file? | 06:45 |
| rww | evildaemon: try asking #ubuntu-offtopic ;) | 06:45 |
| afaty | http://paste.ubuntu.com/643827/ | 06:45 |

| * com64 can't find the moon | 06:46 | |
| tripelb | evildaemon, I saw it full and high this night. | 06:46 |
| evildaemon | I'm sorry, it mesmerizing me rtight now | 06:46 |
| ActionParsnip | tripelb: mencoder | 06:46 |
| tripelb | thanks AP | 06:46 |
| * com64 checks another window | 06:46 | |
| * tripelb goes to look it up. | 06:46 | |
| afaty | Why does the file command to identify the file as iso-8859-1, but the format conversion failed. | 06:46 |
| * tripelb wonders about womencoder | 06:46 | |
| evildaemon | It's so bright in washington right now, I'll go though. | 06:47 |
| ActionParsnip | Tripelb: ffmpeg can do it too (as faze said) | 06:47 |

| wildbat | afaty: file can't guess what codepage you use ~ | 06:47 |
| wildbat | afaty: and i don't think it is latin ~ it should be some gb | 06:48 |
| afaty | So in addition to 'file', is there a better command to identify the file's character encoding format? | 06:48 |
| afaty | YES，It's GBK. | 06:49 |
| afaty | But why 'file' command did not correctly identified it | 06:49 |
| e_t_ | No program is perfect. | 06:50 |
| wildbat | afaty: no app can ~ only guesses ~ | 06:50 |
| afaty | wildbat: Thank you | 06:50 |
| wildbat | afaty: especially you have a small text file ~ it is hard for program to guess it | 06:51 |
| tuanht | does anybody know how to run s script after ubiquity installer is complete? (d-i preseed/late_command... not work for me) | 06:51 |
| afaty | Then I try to find a large file | 06:52 |
| ActionParsnip | tuanht: you could remaster the iso and create an alias for ubiquity to run a script which runs ubiquity followed by whatever you wish | 06:53 |
| tuanht | ActionParsnip: can you give me a keyword (for google search)? | 06:54 |
| ActionParsnip | !remaster | 06:54 |
| ubottu | Interested in remastering the Ubuntu !LiveCD or !Alternate installer? See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCDCustomization - Or use tools such as http://uck.sourceforge.net/ or http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/DRU_Disc_Remastering_Utility | 06:54 |
| tuanht | ActionParsnip: I follow instruction on ubuntu to custom live iso cd | 06:54 |
| tuanht | ActionParsnip: i edit ubuntu.seed file, append `d-i preseed/late_command...`, but it's not work | 06:55 |
| ActionParsnip | tuanht: yes, you will need an alias | 06:55 |
| billy2007 | does an image checksum have to be complete or can i remove the disk | 06:56 |
| afaty | http://paste.ubuntu.com/643839/ | 06:56 |
| afaty | Failed. | 06:56 |
| wildbat | afaty: i told your file can't detect it ~ try enca | 06:57 |
| wildbat | afaty: and you need luck too | 06:57 |
| afaty | OK. | 06:57 |
| afaty | THANK YOU. | 06:57 |
| tuanht | ActionParsnip: thanks | 06:58 |
| billy2007 | when burning a dick do i need to wait for image checksum or can i remove disk | 06:58 |
| nit-wit | billy2007, are you using brasero? | 06:58 |
| e_t_ | Waiting for the checksum helps to avoid coasters. | 06:59 |
| billy2007 | nit-wit, no riht clciked and selected burn | 06:59 |
| ActionParsnip | billy2007: i'd let it finish so you know the burn is good | 06:59 |
| billy2007 | e_t_, what are coasters and il let it finish just to be sure it going to take an hour :( | 07:00 |
| nit-wit | billy2007, it's using brasero then turn off the md5sum plugins , if you don't need that function. | 07:00 |
| wildgoose | billy2007, Bad cd burns can be used as coasters. | 07:00 |
| e_t_ | "coasters" are mis-burned disks that are good for little else but putting under drinks. | 07:00 |
| ActionParsnip | billy2007: coasters are little mats you put cups and similar on | 07:01 |
| spass | or to throw them at neightbours... | 07:01 |
| ubuntu24234 | Ok I partitioned my hard drive using gparted and now have a 80 gb ext 4 partition, how do I get ubuntu to install on that partition | 07:01 |
| ActionParsnip | Or make cat toys from :-) | 07:02 |
| billy2007 | ActionParsnip, lmao haha | 07:02 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, During installation, select this partition to be mounted on "/" | 07:02 |
| ubuntu24234 | glebihan: select it for the partition for the bootloader? | 07:03 |
| subh | can u tell me how to get initd demon | 07:04 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntu24234: ubuntu should use 2 partitions. / and swap. Use custom partitioning and you can manipulate the space | 07:04 |
| afaty | wildbat: Thank you very much. | 07:04 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, no the bootloader will be automatically configured based on the partitions you choose to install your system on | 07:04 |
| afaty | afaty@afaty-laptop ~/Downloads/system_status $ enca -L zh_CN Readme.txt Simplified Chinese National Standard; GB2312 | 07:04 |
| subh | hi can u tell me about initd | 07:04 |
| afaty | enca is OK | 07:04 |
| wildbat | afaty: your welcome ~ | 07:04 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, you just have to choose the mount point for each partition you want to use, the one for the system being mounted on "/" | 07:05 |
| ActionParsnip | Enca looks smart | 07:05 |
| wildbat | afaty: still not perfect ~ use UTF8 ~ ! even in windows ;p ~ (OT: use Notepad++ WIN$) | 07:05 |
| ubuntu24234 | glebihan: I don't understand, I am at this part http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/89/screenshothhq.png/ and there is no way to set the / thing | 07:06 |
| superwizard | hi | 07:07 |
| bhavesh | ActionParsnip: ehm is there something wrong with my graphics card or compiz then? | 07:07 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, select your 80GB partition, click "Change..." then select "Use as ext-4" and set "/" as mount point | 07:07 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, *ext-3* | 07:08 |
| ubuntu24234 | glebihan: wait so not ext4 | 07:08 |
| ActionParsnip | bhavesh: after the hang, run: dmesg | tail it may give clues | 07:08 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, which one of the partitions do you want to install on ? | 07:08 |
| ubuntu24234 | the ext4 one | 07:09 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, I don't see it on your screenshot, but in this case it's "Use as ext4" | 07:09 |
| bhavesh | ActionParsnip: aha it gave me some numbers! and shows some settings | 07:09 |
| AlexDevilLX | can i put intel i7 on asus m3a76-cm? | 07:10 |
| ubuntu24234 | glebihan: oh excuse me I miss spoke ext3 you were right | 07:10 |
| afaty | wildbat: Now been completely resolved, I hate windows, I know a lot of file editing software can solve, but I wanted to use under linux command to resolve. enca is nice. | 07:10 |
| ActionParsnip | bhavesh: use the Internet to see what it means :-) | 07:10 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, then "Use as ext3" :) | 07:10 |
| bhavesh | ActinParsnip: ok | 07:10 |
| ActionParsnip | AlexDevilLX: ask in ##hardware this is ubuntu support | 07:11 |
| bhavesh | ActionParsnip: btw: http://i.imgur.com/zakF0.png | 07:11 |
| ubuntu24234 | glebihan: so like this http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/813/screenshot2zu.png/ ? | 07:11 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, yes | 07:11 |
| ubuntu24234 | ok the installer is now saying I need a swap partition, can't it just use the ext3 partition? | 07:13 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, no the swap must be on its own partition | 07:14 |
| ActionParsnip | bhavesh: in future, pastebin text if you want to show text. Pasting an image isn't necessary at all | 07:14 |
| bhavesh | ActionParsnip: ok. I feel pasting image is easier, | 07:14 |
| bhavesh | ive to just drag and drop it.. | 07:14 |
| ubuntu24234 | glebihan: so ubuntu just can't create a file on the partition and use that as swap? dang. Do i need a swap partition with 3 gb ram? | 07:14 |
| ActionParsnip | bhavesh: plus if you look at the image the text is illegible | 07:15 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntu24234: do you want to be able to hibernate? | 07:15 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, yes it's highly recommended. the swap partition should be about the same size as your RAM | 07:15 |
| ubuntu24234 | ActionParsnip: Yes | 07:16 |
| ubuntu24234 | glebihan: ok is there any way to have it just use a file, like windows | 07:16 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntu24234: then you will need 3Gb of swap | 07:16 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, no | 07:16 |
| ubuntu24234 | Crap | 07:17 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntu24234: sure you can use a swapfile but keeping swap to itself is good (same in windows too) | 07:17 |
| Guest10307 | hello | 07:17 |
| glebihan | ActionParsnip, how would you do that ? | 07:18 |
| ubuntu24234 | ActionParsnip: What would be the advatages of an actual swap file and if so is it ok that I use a logical partition not a primary one because I ran out of primary partitions | 07:18 |
| ActionParsnip | !swap | glebihan | 07:19 |
| ubottu | glebihan: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 07:19 |
| cg2916 | i can't install from a live usb | 07:19 |

| ubuntu24234 | Ok how many partitions do I need for ubuntu, I have already partition once | 07:19 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntu24234: you can use a logical partition for swap. Its all good | 07:20 |
| glebihan | ActionParsnip, thanks | 07:20 |
| cg2916 | Could someone please help, I can't install from my LiveUSB | 07:20 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntu24234: 2, one for swap and the rest for / | 07:20 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, it's recommend to have one partition for the system (mounted on "/") one for the data (mounted on "/home") and one for the swap | 07:20 |
| ubuntu24234 | sigh ok | 07:20 |
| ubuntu24234 | time to go partition again, hope windows doesn't die haha | 07:21 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntu24234: you can get fancy and even have a separate one for /home | 07:21 |

| cg2916 | i can't install | 07:27 |
| cg2916 | uhh | 07:27 |
| cg2916 | hold on... | 07:27 |
| cg2916 | how do i do that | 07:27 |
| DistroJockey | billy2007: I recall a little bug with it. Maybe you have to change to another directory or something to get the list of iso's to show properly. Can't remember the exact trick atm | 07:27 |

| mikubuntu | i had lots of problems getting my hp f4480 printer/scanner to work. now its working, but not so well. is it possible that the ink has dried up in the printheads after sitting idle for a year? pretty sure these are the original new printheads that came with the unit, but i'm only getting about a 40 % greyscale out of it. | 07:29 |
| Ileden | Hi! I'm experiencing a weird problem. My computer loses network connection after certain amount (30min?) of inactivity, and any user activity brings it back up. This is problematic because I'm trying to do a long network file transfer on it... Any ideas? | 07:29 |

| ActionParsnip | mikubuntu: print some sizable blocks of the 4 printer colours. May help clear it | 07:31 |
| mikubuntu | ActionParsnip: thx for your help earlier in the day, i had to leave and come back to this printer prob. i reinstalled hplip and now computer and printer are communicating (but printer not giving me good image for some reason) is it possible i need to run several test pages to 'break in' the printheads? | 07:31 |
| crackerjackz | when i run apt-get update i get this error... | 07:32 |

| crackerjackz | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 07:32 |
| ActionParsnip | mikubuntu: afaik hp heads are in the cartridges | 07:32 |
| crackerjackz | what does that mean? | 07:32 |
| DasEi | crackerjackz: synaptics still open in parallel ? | 07:33 |
| ActionParsnip | crackerjackz: are updates running or is software centre open? | 07:33 |
| crackerjackz | DasEi, i guess, what does that mean? nope software center isnt open | 07:33 |
| crackerjackz | DasEi, what is the name of the process for software center? | 07:33 |
| ActionParsnip | !aptfix | 07:33 |
| ubottu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 07:33 |
| DasEi | mikubuntu: can be, if that stood for a while, they are dried out, see if there is a selftest, or print some dense code page | 07:33 |
| ActionParsnip | crackerjackz: ubottu's command will fix you up | 07:34 |
| crackerjackz | ActionParsnip, yes that fixed the problem.. thank you very much | 07:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Np | 07:35 |
| crackerjackz | ActionParsnip, what happened exactly and what did that command tell it to do? | 07:36 |
| crackerjackz | just so that i have an understanding of how it works and what not this way i can help others in the future | 07:37 |
| ubuntu24234 | What is the best way to convert a primary partition into a logical one, do I have to delete and reformat? | 07:37 |
| mikubuntu | DasEi, what do you mean by dense code ezackly? | 07:37 |
| DasEi | crackerjackz: same as half an hour ago, plus removing apt-lock (I guess your synaptic was still open from repo-change) | 07:38 |
| stingray1 | hi, I'm trying to upgrade an old dapper LTS server to hardy, it seems to be broken. Does anyone have some advice? | 07:38 |

| ikonia | stingray1: define broken | 07:38 |
| rww | !eol | stingray1 | 07:38 |
| ubottu | stingray1: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 07:38 |
| stingray1 | ikonia: a "do-release-upgrade' says 'Getting upgrade prerequisites failed' | 07:38 |
| DasEi | mikubuntu: just a page with many characters, f.e. code (ink..) | 07:38 |
| crackerjackz | ActionParsnip, so it was a dependency problem.. is that the correct terminology? | 07:39 |
| ikonia | stingray1: what upgrade instructions are you using | 07:39 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, using gparted should be the easier way, and yes you have to delete and reformat | 07:39 |
| truepurple | cypha: It said mount: can't find /media/cdrom0 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab | 07:39 |
| ubuntu24234 | glebihan: ok | 07:39 |
| stingray1 | ikonia: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades/Dapper | 07:39 |
| ikonia | stingray1: do you have any 3rd party repos or PPA's ? | 07:39 |
| stingray1 | ikonia: none, I have them as per that doc | 07:40 |
| stingray1 | ikonia: I've also changed it to point to old-releases.ubuntu.com, which fails less | 07:40 |
| mikubuntu | DasEi, should i print a colorful image, like a photo? | 07:40 |
| DasEi | mikubuntu: no, see ActionP, problem was more than one apt/dpkg process at one time | 07:40 |
| ikonia | stingray1: could you please pastebin your sources.list | 07:40 |
| DasEi | mikubuntu: nick miss, second | 07:41 |
| ActionParsnip | crackerjackz: not dependancy. Just a dpkg process holding the packages, preventing other installs etc. Its one of the weaknesses of package based distros | 07:41 |

| e_t_ | Guest91045: If you're connected, then the problem isn't with the wireless adapter. | 07:47 |
| ikonia | stingray1: you'll need to log a bug to get that pacakge updated/fixed/resolved | 07:47 |
| anthony_dev | e_t_: thanx | 07:47 |
| ikonia | stingray1: you may want to consider trying to fool it by putting an entry in your /etc/hosts file | 07:47 |

| DasEi | mikubuntu: tinyurl ;), does gnome-default-printer show correct model ? | 07:55 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, you would have to format your swap partition as "swap" | 07:55 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, apart from that, should be ok | 07:55 |
| DasEi | mikubuntu: http://tinyurl.com/ , keeps channel readable | 07:56 |
| e_t_ | Guest91045: With wireless, things like that are usually set automatically by DHCP. You can find out your default gateway with "ip route | grep default". | 07:56 |
| ubuntu24234 | like this http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/232/screenshot4ha.png/ | 07:57 |
| glebihan | ubuntu24234, yes | 07:58 |
| mikubuntu | DasEi, printer is showing as default (only) printer | 07:59 |
| DasEi | ubuntu24234: you won't need a seperate /boot in ntfs and swap could be 6 gb on 3 gb ram for hibernation , if win is already set up like this, leave it | 07:59 |
| Stevethepirate | Best C++ MySQL bindings? | 08:00 |
| DasEi | mikubuntu: with correct model listet ? | 08:00 |
| Guest91045 | bro i know that too and i haven't changed any thing (dhcp) . when i click wireless icon i find my Ap then i select it and it connects then i open Firefox but it dose n't open and i tried ping but in vain > ip route | grep default < i tired this befor and dosen't work | 08:00 |
| ubuntu24234 | DasEi: so if it is 3gb it can't hibernate | 08:00 |
| e_t_ | Guest91045: What does "ifconfig" show? | 08:01 |
| DasEi | mikubuntu: can cause trouble, yes, just drag it 3 down of the root ext4 | 08:01 |
| mikubuntu | DasEi, not ezackly, mine is f4480, and showing 'f4400 series' | 08:02 |
| e_t_ | Stevethepirate: libmysql++-dev ? | 08:02 |
| DistroJockey | DasEi, ubuntu24234: the 199MiB ntfs boot partition is something Windows 7 does and needs | 08:02 |
| Stevethepirate | e_t_: Coolio. | 08:03 |
| DasEi | ubuntu24234: so already installed and not you doing a recovery setup, yes, that's it then | 08:04 |
| ubuntu24234 | DasEi: so a 3gb swap will be enough for hibernation | 08:05 |

| MK`` | Ever since I upgraded to 11.04, file opening has been a bit off. If I try to open a file of unknown type, instead of sending me to select a program, it throws an error and says "not a folder", but I never set Nautilus as default to open unknown files. Additionally, whenever I download something with Firefox, I can't open it from Firefox's Download window, it throws the same error, even if the type is known. | 08:27 |
| MK`` | And on top of all that, whenever I do open a file or folder, the "Opening [folder]..." thing that gets to the taskbar lasts way too long, long after it has successfully opened. I can close the folder before the "Opening..." message goes away. | 08:27 |

| pRoV7x | what's the best yahoo messanger for ubuntu that has the vidoe and voice calling abality | 08:58 |
| bobweaver | alqaysar, what is the question | 08:58 |
| mikubuntu | billy2007: you're an ez customer | 08:58 |
| DistroJockey | mikubuntu: Yeah, the included drivers should be fine. Pretty sure your cartridges are dead. | 08:59 |
| alqaysar | i need any program it can repair bad sectors | 08:59 |
| Dr-Zeuss | bobweaver: Thanks | 08:59 |
| pRoV7x | how can i use drivers from Windows with Uubuntu, please | 08:59 |
| mikubuntu | DistroJockey: ya, thats prolly it, i wonder if they can be refilled | 08:59 |
| mikubuntu | i haven't had a printer for 5 years so i haven't had any printing issues ... lols | 09:00 |
| DistroJockey | mikubuntu: As I said, it's probably cheaper to buy a new printer. | 09:00 |
| bobweaver | alqaysar, if your harddrive is going out then it is you could try and fix it with fsck -y | 09:00 |
| mikubuntu | i think i'm remembering why i din't have a printer | 09:00 |
| DistroJockey | mikubuntu: hehe. Yeah, I don't. | 09:01 |
| mikubuntu | causes sharp pain in the a** , just below the wallet | 09:01 |
| bobweaver | alqaysar, but if it is going out back up and get a new one | 09:01 |
| alqaysar | its USB harddrive , how can you used this tool? | 09:01 |
| bobweaver | alqaysar, never mind I thought that you where talking about a harddrive | 09:02 |
| alqaysar | is open it but its slow | 09:02 |
| mikubuntu | thanks guys for all your help, i'll check on cartridges in the morning | 09:02 |
| bobweaver | alqaysar, are you trying to get lost info out of it data recovery ? | 09:03 |
| DistroJockey | mikubuntu: no and good luck | 09:03 |
| DistroJockey | mikubuntu: np^ | 09:03 |
| buggyer | hi, any recommendation on a distributed/replication file system? | 09:03 |
| alqaysar | no | 09:03 |
| bobweaver | buggyer, remastersys | 09:03 |
| alqaysar | i want to fix the bad sectors | 09:04 |
| bobweaver | alqaysar, 0.oI dont know if you can do that | 09:04 |
| alqaysar | there is some programs in windows i try it, but it dosent work | 09:05 |
| buggyer | bobweaver: im looking for a kind of live replicating fs. i want to have specific data on 2 machines, as failover. | 09:05 |
| alqaysar | now i want to fix it in ubuntu | 09:05 |
| bobweaver | buggyer, yes remastersys http://www.geekconnection.org/remastersys/ | 09:06 |
| alqaysar | any idea? | 09:06 |
| DistroJockey | alqaysar: Google gave me this post, might be worth a look: http://www.overclock.net/linux-unix/588130-ubuntu-9-10-failing-hard-disk.html | 09:07 |
| bobweaver | buggyer, It makes a live cd/dvd of you system | 09:07 |
| DistroJockey | alqaysar: badblocks might do what you want. The hard drive will get worse though, so best to replace it | 09:07 |
| buggyer | bobweaver: yeah, i read that. but i'd like to have some server-client stuff. means if i copy a file to server1 it should appear on server2 also. | 09:08 |
| bobweaver | alqaysar, I agree with DistroJockey | 09:08 |
| bobweaver | buggyer, Ohh | 09:08 |
| alqaysar | thank you guys :D | 09:09 |
| DistroJockey | alqaysar: You're welcome :) | 09:10 |
| onats | hey guys | 09:10 |
| onats | what's the term called again when i want a partition to be expandable by adding disks? | 09:10 |
| buggyer | bobweaver: drbd looks good. | 09:10 |
| bobweaver | buggyer, yeah I am not much of a cluster guy one day... | 09:11 |
| buggyer | bobweaver: i'm trying to avoid to have lots of boxes just for security reasons. i have master slave setup already running. except some files i need on both as failover. thats the reason why im asking. :) | 09:12 |
| DistroJockey | onats: An LVM Volume Group maybe: http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/118645 | 09:14 |
| onats | there we go! | 09:15 |
| onats | thanks DistroJockey | 09:15 |
| DistroJockey | onats: Not a big fan of LVM, but it may be worth looking at | 09:15 |
| onats | DistroJockey, why so? | 09:15 |
| onats | its just hard to setup right? | 09:15 |
| onats | no known disadvantages? | 09:15 |
| DistroJockey | onats: if a drive dies so does all your data probably | 09:16 |
| onats | unless i have raid 1 | 09:16 |
| onats | right? | 09:16 |
| e_t_ | LVM has many of the risks of raid0. | 09:16 |
| onats | but i have raid 1 hardware | 09:16 |
| DistroJockey | onats: yeah, what e_t_ said :) | 09:16 |
| DistroJockey | onats: you might be better off adding a disk and mounting it as a new directory in your /home (pretty sure you can do that) | 09:18 |
| onats | well im going to provision a partition for mail storage | 09:18 |
| onats | thus, i need an expandable volume | 09:18 |
| e_t_ | On top of raid1 hardware, it should be OK. It is harder to configure, and harder to recover in case of serious errors. About the only advantage is the ability to concatenate disk space and grow or shrink volumes. | 09:18 |
| onats | e_t_, with a mail storage space (software manages) | 09:19 |
| onats | i think its best to use expandable volumes | 09:20 |
| DistroJockey | onats: adding the drive and redirecting what you need to it would be safest I think. Like placing /var on a new volume for example. | 09:20 |
| Loqus | Can I create a number of virtual Ethernet Interfaces which uses the same physical Ethernet Adaptor, but each have a different MAC address? | 09:22 |
| Ileden | Hi! I'm experiencing a weird problem. My computer loses its network connection after random amount (~20min) of inactivity, and any user activity (even moving mouse) brings it back up. This is problematic because I'm trying to do a long network file transfer on it... Any ideas what might be causing this OR how to hack around the problem, by e.g. mimicking user behaviour with a script or something like that? | 09:22 |
| Loqus | Ileden, what's your platform (hardware type) | 09:23 |
| Ileden | Loqus: some Compaq desktop, running xubuntu | 09:24 |
| cypha | how do I make a file writable? | 09:24 |
| cypha | (remove read-only) | 09:24 |
| Loqus | Cypha google for CHMOD | 09:24 |
| buggyer | whats a good method to create a container file to host a separate filesystem on an already used filesystem? like this /DATA (ext3); /DATA/container mounted on /DATA2 (ext3) | 09:24 |
| Ileden | cypha: right click, and use "permissions" to allow it. | 09:24 |
| o0o0 | can it be power management? | 09:24 |
| Ileden | cypha: or from terminal: chmod u+w filename | 09:25 |
| Loqus | Ileden, it sounds like power modes... so the PC goes into power saving if unused for a while. | 09:25 |
| Ileden | Loqus: yeah, i thought so... but the interval is random! | 09:25 |
| Loqus | o0o0... snap ;') | 09:25 |
| Loqus | Random? It's hard to know what your PC might considder as "inactivity"... hoe random is random? I mean, is it always longer than 10 minutes and never more than 20? | 09:25 |
| unop | buggyer, you can use a loop device on pretty much any of the standard filesystems.. I'd think this might do. mount -o loop -t ext3 your_ext3_file /path/to/directory | 09:26 |
| Ileden | Loqus: so far i've measured roughly 15 mins, 40 mins and 20 mins | 09:26 |
| Loqus | ...definately looks like PM settings. Can you check when it goes offline if the link LEDs on your network card, and whatever you're plugged into stay up? | 09:26 |
| Loqus | ...also, look out for flashing turnign into solid lights on the activity LED of your adaptor. | 09:27 |
| buggyer | unop: is it possible to give the loopback device a specific size? if i crate a 500GB big file, would the loopback device then also have 500gb of size? | 09:27 |
| Ileden | Loqus: I'll check at next disconnect | 09:27 |
| Loqus | cool... let me know, I'll be Idling all day. | 09:27 |
| e_t_ | buggyer: dd if=/dev/zero of=/DATA/container bs=1024 count=X where X is how many kilobytes you want the file to be. Then mke2fs /DATA/container. | 09:27 |
| cypha | thank Ileden | 09:28 |
| Loqus | Has anyone succcessfully created a number of virtual Ethernet Interfaces which use the same physical Ethernet Adaptor, but each have a different MAC address? | 09:28 |
| iceroot | Loqus: if i am correct you cant change the mac-adress because eth0 is used for the traffic instead of eth0:1 so the mac from eth0 is used | 09:28 |
| Gorro | does anyone know how to move a file from one directory to another ? | 09:29 |
| iceroot | Gorro: mv | 09:29 |
| mosx1 | hi all, having a breakdown here trying to get a remote desktop session to an 11.04 desktop box over ssh | 09:29 |
| e_t_ | Loqus: I *think* that only the priciest NICs allow multiple MAC addresses. | 09:29 |
| mosx1 | from a win box | 09:29 |
| mosx1 | using putt | 09:29 |
| mosx1 | putty | 09:29 |
| iceroot | Gorro: mv file /new/path/ | 09:29 |
| buggyer | e_t_: thanks a lot, i think i can use this method. :) | 09:29 |
| cypha | Ileden, it didn't work | 09:30 |
| Gorro | okay how do i find out the full directory in putty? | 09:30 |
| Ileden | cypha: no? | 09:30 |
| cypha | still says readonly file | 09:30 |
| Ileden | cypha: hm, could be you're not the owner of the file | 09:30 |
| mosx1 | I run this command on the ubuntu box: x11vnc -safer -localhost -nopw -once -display :0 | 09:30 |
| cypha | i did sudo chmod u+w inputrc | 09:30 |
| mosx1 | then attempt to connect to localhost:0 using vncviewer (version 4.1.2) | 09:31 |
| Gorro | is there a command to fing the true full directory | 09:31 |
| alqaysar | guys , how can i used the terminal form Ubuntu LiveCD? | 09:31 |
| Ileden | cypha: if you're not the owner, there two choices: change the owner of the file, or give write permissions to everyone (u+ only gives to the owner) | 09:31 |
| cypha | how do I change the owner? | 09:32 |
| wh1zz0 | Hi guys.. please pardon my stupid question... | 09:32 |
| Gorro | cypha use chmod | 09:32 |
| wh1zz0 | How can I change my box name? | 09:32 |
| crackerjackz | i am looking for a text editior similiar to notepad plus plus for linux | 09:32 |
| Ileden | cypha: chown username filename | 09:32 |
| wh1zz0 | @playbox | 09:32 |
| ortsvorsteher | cypha, you can use chown to change owner | 09:32 |
| crackerjackz | any ideas? | 09:33 |
| Ileden | cypha: but be careful... it could break something | 09:33 |
| Loqus | Thanks iceroot, e_t_, I think you're right... for the scenario VLANs is the obvious way to go, but I want to make sure I've explored all options. I would ofc like to have 6 network cards, but some things just aren't practivcal on an embedded system ;) | 09:33 |
| Gorro | crackerjackz you can try pico | 09:33 |
| Ileden | cypha: since after that the original owner no longer has access to the file | 09:33 |
| almoxarife | wh1zz0: change the 'host' file to something else in /etc | 09:33 |
| ortsvorsteher | cypha, do you want to modify /etc/inputrc with ownership and mode? | 09:34 |
| cypha | Ileden, cool, that worked | 09:34 |
| crackerjackz | Gorro, isn't that nano? | 09:34 |
| cypha | but I don't know who the original owner was | 09:34 |
| cypha | and is it possible to have multiple owners? | 09:34 |
| Gorro | yes you can allow who you want to be the owner | 09:34 |
| Ileden | cypha: a file can have one owner, and one group (which can contain multiple users) | 09:34 |
| crackerjackz | i am looking for a text editor that doesn't make a mess of my XTHML, CSS, PHP.. etc | 09:35 |
| cypha | ok, well, hopefully it didn't break anything | 09:35 |
| cypha | guess I'll find out | 09:35 |
| Phylock | crackerjackz - take a look at http://linuxappfinder.com/ | 09:35 |
| Ileden | cypha: yeah, knowing the original owner would've been part of the being careful part... :) | 09:35 |
| wh1zz0 | almoxarife: thanks but not sure I clearly get you...which of the files precisely? | 09:35 |
| e_t_ | wh1zz0: you have to change both /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts | 09:35 |
| wslayer | grub is showing error: file not found but after rebooting my pc three times grub starts ubuntu | 09:36 |
| ortsvorsteher | cypha, you talking about /etc/inputrc? | 09:36 |
| cypha | yup | 09:36 |
| ortsvorsteher | cypha, mine is looking like this: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1721 2010-01-18 09:15 /etc/inputrc | 09:36 |

| billy2007 | how can i make a usb connection get recognized in vbox | 09:38 |
| cypha | thanks ortsvorsteher | 09:38 |
| Gorro | i hated virtual box sorry | 09:38 |
| ortsvorsteher | :) | 09:38 |
| wslayer | grub isn't booting ubuntu properly it shows up error: file not found but I restart my pc three times and ubuntu starts fine | 09:38 |
| crackerjackz | is there a way to get gvim to number the lines of code? | 09:38 |
| prueva | ds | 09:38 |
| billy2007 | Gorro, i know this isnt what this rooms is for but can i ask why | 09:39 |
| wslayer | what could it be? | 09:39 |
| Gorro | i just needed some help | 09:39 |
| === airtonix_ is now known as airtonix | ||
| ikonia | billy2007: because this channel supports ubuntu issues, not virtual box | 09:39 |
| Gorro | i thought maybe someone here could possibly help | 09:39 |
| Phylock | billy2007- you want to use a usb device from inside a virtual box? did you install the usb plugin? | 09:39 |
| ikonia | billy2007: you where told about this yesteday | 09:39 |
| iceroot | Loqus: vlan is a good choice, i am using it here also and i am very happy with it | 09:40 |
| billy2007 | i had a major problem with it earlier and came here it took all night but i got it fixed | 09:40 |
| wh1zz0 | hostname is not a directory | 09:40 |
| Gorro | its not the same as having a real box that runs | 09:40 |
| ikonia | billy2007: ok - so it's best asked in #vbox | 09:40 |
| almoxarife | wh1zz0: hostname is a file | 09:40 |
| ortsvorsteher | crackerjackz, may you try :set nu | 09:41 |
| wh1zz0 | yeah.. but there's nothing inside almoxarife | 09:41 |
| billy2007 | no one answers in vbox and if its an ubuntu os im using and having problems with the files then i have every right to ask here | 09:41 |
| Gorro | is there a command to find the true full directory | 09:41 |
| ikonia | billy2007: #vbox is the correct place | 09:41 |
| almoxarife | wh1zz0: the file exists but is empty? | 09:41 |
| Gorro | i am using pico and it does not show the whole directory | 09:41 |
| wh1zz0 | almoxarife: yeah | 09:42 |
| billy2007 | Phylock, its my iphone it should install itself i assumed? | 09:42 |
| wh1zz0 | when I cd to etc dir | 09:42 |
| wh1zz0 | and open hostname | 09:42 |
| wh1zz0 | there's actually nothing inside | 09:42 |
| ikonia | billy2007: stop asking #vbox is the correct place | 09:42 |
| unop | buggyer, the loopback device doesn't really take up space -- it's your file that does | 09:42 |
| billy2007 | ikonia, no its a problem in ubuntu so like i said i can post here | 09:43 |
| billy2007 | !ubuntu | 09:43 |

| ikonia | billy2007: it's not a problem with Ubuntu, it's you wanting to learn how to configure virtual box - please ask in #vbox | 09:43 |
| wslayer | someone help me please :d | 09:43 |
| bobweaver | billy2007, I will help at #ubuntu-beginner | 09:43 |
| almoxarife | wh1zz0: it should have your host name, decide what that should be and add it to the file, you may need to re-start | 09:43 |
| Gorro | billy2007 don't use virtual box it sucks | 09:43 |
| ortsvorsteher | !someone | wslayer | 09:44 |

| wslayer | grub isn't booting ubuntu properly it shows up error: file not found but I restart my pc three times and ubuntu runs | 09:45 |
| wh1zz0 | I can see my box name, just that I cant edit it.. almoxarife do you need to sudo bash before I can edit the file? | 09:45 |
| wslayer | what is the issue? | 09:45 |
| almoxarife | wh1zz0: yes, you need admin permission | 09:45 |
| wh1zz0 | Ahh.. okie | 09:46 |
| wh1zz0 | let me try now | 09:46 |
| billy2007 | ikonia, your a nozy one aint ya | 09:47 |
| ikonia | billy2007: no, I'm just trying to direct you to the correct place | 09:47 |
| Phylock | billy2007 - which version of vbox, host, guest? did you add yourself to the 'vboxusers' group? did you install the usb extension pack? | 09:48 |
| billy2007 | Phylock, so the usb is in the extras pack? | 09:48 |
| cypha | ortsvorsteher, how can I put my file back to those permissions and owner? | 09:48 |
| Phylock | billy2007 - http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch01.html#intro-installing | 09:49 |

| ikonia | that link is in the topic in #vbox channel whichi billy2007 should join | 09:49 |
| ikonia | wh1zz0: you shouldn't be using root | 09:50 |
| wh1zz0 | I actually can see my box name in hostname now that I did sudo gedit hostname | 09:50 |
| ortsvorsteher | cypha, try sudo chmod 644 /etc/inputrc and after that: sudo chown root:root /etc/inputrc . | 09:50 |
| wh1zz0 | Owh | 09:50 |
| wh1zz0 | Okie.. thot they said never login to root | 09:50 |
| ortsvorsteher | crackerjackz, you are welcome :) | 09:50 |
| cypha | cool, one sec | 09:50 |
| wslayer | what is the grub config file? | 09:50 |
| wh1zz0 | Okie.. lemme try again | 09:50 |
| ikonia | wh1zz0: the root account is disabled for a reason | 09:50 |
| almoxarife | wh1zz0: I am assuming you did not do something close to sudo gedit /etc/hostname | 09:51 |
| ikonia | almoxarife: gksudo for graphical applications | 09:51 |
| almoxarife | ikonia: true | 09:51 |
| wh1zz0 | yes that was what I did almoxarife the first time | 09:52 |
| almoxarife | am I the only person who figured out that there is such a thing as 'open as admin' in nautilus and uses it? | 09:52 |
| wh1zz0 | i cd to the /etc/ then i did sudo gedit hostname | 09:52 |
| Ileden | almoxarife: pretty much, yeah :) | 09:53 |
| wh1zz0 | ikonia: i still get the same error | 09:53 |
| wh1zz0 | (gedit:4836): Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to store changes into `/root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel', but failed: Failed to create file '/root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel.TID1XV': No such file or directory | 09:53 |
| ikonia | wh1zz0: exactly what command are you using ? | 09:54 |
| wh1zz0 | even when logged in as root ... and when i just used sudo outside root | 09:54 |
| almoxarife | ikonia: wh1zz0 initially stated that his 'hostname' file was empty, how does that effect gksudo or sudo I wonder? | 09:55 |
| wslayer | what is mouse? | 09:55 |
| wh1zz0 | initially i did sudo gedit hostname | 09:55 |
| ikonia | wh1zz0: ok - so top | 09:55 |
| ikonia | wh1zz0: what is the command you are doing now that is causing you a problem | 09:55 |
| mosx1 | I'm struggling trying to connect over ssh using port forwarding to a vncserver | 09:55 |
| wh1zz0 | same | 09:55 |
| mosx1 | connection just immediately closees | 09:55 |
| wslayer | what is ubuntu? | 09:55 |
| ikonia | wh1zz0: right, so it's wrong, to use graphical applications you use "gksudo" not "sudo" | 09:56 |
| wh1zz0 | when i do sudo gedit the file actually opens and i can see the contents | 09:56 |
| wh1zz0 | when i try to edit and save that's when i get this error | 09:56 |
| ikonia | wslayer: a linux distribution see www.ubuntu.com | 09:56 |
| wh1zz0 | owww | 09:56 |
| wh1zz0 | i see | 09:56 |
| mosx1 | I'm thinking it may be a firewall type issue but I'm unsure | 09:57 |
| mosx1 | If I can connect ok with putty and log in then presumably I'm good as far as firewall goes ? | 09:57 |
| ikonia | mosx1: that is port 22 | 09:58 |
| mosx1 | yes | 09:58 |
| ikonia | mosx1: is vnc running on port 22 | 09:58 |
| mosx1 | nope | 09:58 |
| mosx1 | I'm using SSH tunnel | 09:58 |
| mosx1 | configured in putty | 09:58 |
| mosx1 | or trying to | 09:58 |
| ikonia | mosx1: ok, so I see what you are saying your firewall is open | 09:58 |
| mosx1 | yes | 09:58 |
| mosx1 | I can connect to the ubuntu, log in and command line start x11vnc | 09:59 |
| kriegerod | is there any poll results showing how many percents use {,k,ed,x}ubuntu, and also stable/testing/unstable? | 09:59 |
| krambiorix | hi guys, because of my svnclient doesn't work with libsvn1 version 1.6.6 i need to downgrade to version 1.4.6. I downloaded this version and installed it with dpkg -i . But now i have a dependencies problem. What can i do? | 09:59 |
| mosx1 | just cant then connect to it from my win box | 09:59 |

| ejo | Hi. I have a USB memory stick with an 11.04 ISO on it and have used that successfully (with no problems at all) to install to one computer so far. Now I'm trying to use it to install 11.04 on a second computer, and the computer just reboots about ten seconds after I choose "Install Ubuntu on a Hard Drive" from the boot menu. | 10:07 |
| mosx1 | definately not | 10:07 |
| bobweaver | anyok so I installed kde on my ubuntu 10.10 machine and like it. so much that I never use gnome and would like to get rid of it from the login menu is there a way to do this ? | 10:07 |

| ejo | Same USB stick has successfully installed Ubuntu on another computer, no problem. OK that's my full description so I'll just wait and see if anyone is able to help. | 10:11 |

| Guest39412 | anyone able to tell me how to clear most frequently used? | 10:18 |
| gry | Guest39412, stand by | 10:18 |
| Sidewinder1 | stratos, Here is a step by step how-to in order to go from Dapper to Hardy... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades/Dapper | 10:18 |
| mosx1 | ejo: I have seen problem yes | 10:19 |
| mosx1 | oh sorry - didn't see it was on a usb | 10:19 |
| mosx1 | my mistake | 10:19 |
| Dr_Willis | ejo, bad iso, tool making the iso messed up. .. issue btween the kind of usb and pc... | 10:19 |
| ejo | The ISO worked fine for installing on another pc last week. | 10:20 |
| ejo | Yeah maybe I'll just try another port (that would be too easy/weird but i'll try it of course) | 10:20 |
| Dr_Willis | ejo, test it with some other pc's, try remaking it with some other iso->usb tools , try a differnt usb stick | 10:20 |
| csdwifi | is there a shortcut C^ or M^ command for desktop switcher? | 10:20 |
| Dr_Willis | in the next release i hear you are supposed to be able to 'dd' the iso to theusb stick. so hopefully that will remove a lot of problems. but thats for the future | 10:21 |
| ejo | The only other thing I can think of is, the two hard drives in this PC used to be a striped RAID array; I deleted the array and reset the BIOS so that I would have a clean slate to work with, and I don't know if anything about that operation could have interfered with Live CD operation. | 10:21 |
| Dr_Willis | csdwifi, clarify what you are meaning. | 10:21 |
| gry | Guest39412: Do you want to continue using Unity after removing that? | 10:21 |
| ejo | Dr_Willis: like I said, it tested fine with another PC, it installed perfectly | 10:21 |
| csdwifi | dr_willis : I mean control or alt command | 10:21 |
| Guest39412 | removing? | 10:22 |
| gry | Guest39412: You wanted to remove most used applications list. | 10:22 |
| Guest39412 | no, clear :) | 10:22 |
| ejo | I thought he just wanted to clear the list, not remove it. | 10:22 |
| csdwifi | i want to switch desktops using function keys | 10:23 |
| gry | Guest39412: Ah I see. | 10:23 |
| Guest39412 | do you know a way? | 10:23 |
| Guest39412 | anybody know a way? | 10:23 |
| Dr_Willis | thers proberly a way Guest39412 but i dont know it off hand. check the askubuntu.com site would be my first stop. | 10:24 |
| Dr_Willis | csdwifi, that would be a setting you could setup via the CCSM tool for 'compiz' | 10:25 |
| Dr_Willis | !ccsm | 10:25 |
| ubottu | To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz | 10:25 |
| Guest39412 | OK | 10:25 |
| csdwifi | thanks Dr_Willis | 10:25 |
| Dr_Willis | csdwifi, theres some default keys for it. but i rarely use the desktops feature any more. | 10:25 |
| mosx1 | weird...I know the SSH port forwarding is working ok as I can port forward port 80 and see the apache server running at http://localhost | 10:25 |

| com64 | is it really bad if my disk has 4 reallocated sectors? (according to SMART data) ? | 11:24 |
| sgo11 | by googling, somebody said logout and login and reinstall solves the problem. but actually I did reinstall and logout. maybe I should restart my laptop and reinstall. | 11:24 |
| recon69_lap | hmm, i'm still on the beta 2.2 , might be why it's not working | 11:24 |
| sattu94 | hi, i have a problem here. | 11:24 |

| BluesKaj | !9.10 | 12:22 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) was the eleventh release of Ubuntu. !End-Of-Life on April 29th 2011, see http://goo.gl/UUTAB for details. | 12:22 |
| svip | BluesKaj: I am just bothered by the -h switch on do-release-upgrade is being so vague on what -p does. | 12:22 |
| Dark_owl | anyone to help me in WI-FI ? | 12:23 |
| svip | BluesKaj: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 12:23 |
| gest | without using samba a windows machine can't get infected from my ubuntu right? | 12:24 |
| recon69_lap | gest: well, thats the idea | 12:24 |
| csdwifi | recon69_lap, from which directory should I run the autoconf patch? i'm not sure where it's stored | 12:24 |
| gest | and is samba something I'd have to download separate ? | 12:24 |
| Dark_owl | I CAN NOT BROWSE INTERNET !!! X( | 12:25 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: ... but apparently the caps-lock key still works? | 12:25 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi, the patch is a change to the files you compiling. if you download the patch file and open it you can see the changes you need to make | 12:25 |
| gest | what does clamav even do then?????? | 12:25 |
| billy2007 | is it possible to write an iso to a 2gb sd card? | 12:26 |
| Dark_owl | Yape .. plz help me bro | 12:26 |
| Pici | svip, BluesKaj: Check old-releases again. | 12:26 |
| gest | billy2007 no because an sd card is a non bootable device | 12:26 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: you can get better help if you describe the problem a bit more. | 12:26 |
| recon69_lap | gest: scans you computers hard drive from windows virus parterns | 12:26 |
| Dark_owl | when i connect to wifi i can open only one page then it dose not response ,so i must reconnect again to open only one another page ... | 12:26 |
| recon69_lap | for | 12:26 |
| gest | but I'm only running ubuntu | 12:26 |
| gest | not duo biotic | 12:27 |
| billy2007 | gest i have it in my usb dongle and its shows as a usb stick | 12:27 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: has it always been like that? | 12:27 |
| Murdock | where can I download programs for ubuntu? | 12:27 |
| recon69_lap | gest: then dont install anti-virus | 12:27 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: or did the problem suddlenly appear? or appear after an update? | 12:27 |
| Dark_owl | yes ,so i don't use ubuntu | 12:27 |
| Dark_owl | it was from the moment i installed it | 12:27 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: can you try if the net works ok with a wired cable instead of wifi? | 12:27 |
| Pici | Murdock: Use Ubuntu's Software Center | 12:28 |
| gest | my question is if I'm running ubuntu only but I have windows machines on my wifi network can They get infected without me using samba? | 12:28 |
| Ileden | Hi! I'm experiencing a weird problem. My computer loses its network connection after random amount (~20min) of inactivity, and any user activity (even moving mouse) brings it back up. This is problematic because I'm trying to do a long network file transfer on it... Any ideas what might be causing this OR how to hack around the problem, by e.g. mimicking user behaviour with a script or something like that? | 12:28 |
| Dark_owl | i'm on wifi now using windows and every thing is ok | 12:28 |
| WiK | hello | 12:28 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: ok.. sounds like a driver issue... | 12:28 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: have you tried using a wire with ubuntu? | 12:29 |
| JoAnneOminous | bazhang: Are you gone? | 12:29 |
| recon69_lap | gest: sure the can, the windows pc's can get on the web and download viruses | 12:29 |
| WiK | im tring to setup a gdm message_banner when you attempt to login. Is there a way to get multiple lines? ive tried the standard \n\l, \r\n, \n but they all just show up as text | 12:29 |
| gest | no not that | 12:29 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: if it is a driver issue, you could use something called "ndiswrapper", which is basically a way to use your windows wifi driver on linux. | 12:29 |
| StephenS | sudo: deb:command not found | 12:29 |
| saliak | I'm having a lot of trouble getting a init.d script to start on boot. I've written the script using skeleton as a template. when i run it as root the daemon starts as I would expect. i ran update-rc.d to add to runlevels 2-5, and confirmed that it's in each with a S (pirority 80). however, when I boot, no sign of it running. any ideas how I can start to debug? | 12:29 |
| gest | the windows machines all have antivirus protection can they t infected from MY UBUNTU | 12:30 |
| tsimpson | gest: they can not get infected from your ubuntu system, no | 12:30 |
| Dark_owl | no bro the adapter works well | 12:30 |
| gest | then how could they get infected | 12:30 |
| Murdock | pici thank you very much | 12:30 |
| === ok1234 is now known as woshizhongguoren | ||
| recon69_lap | gest: putting AV on linux is normally for scanning mail servers/shared drivers so virus are spotted before transmission | 12:30 |
| gest | besides from being on the windows machines and installing a virus | 12:30 |

| JoAnneOminous | Okay... bazhang is apparently gone. Anyone else here want to look at this pastebin of my sources bazhang asked me to post? http://pastebin.com/C0fmu3pR | 12:32 |
| gest | I have windows only machines on my wifi network if I download viruses on Linux will it infect | 12:32 |
| Dark_owl | Ileden: the adapter works well | 12:32 |
| gest | any of my windows only machines | 12:32 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: it could be the adapter works ok, but linux doesn't work well with the adapter. or even that linux doesn't work well with the adapter & wireless station combination. have you tried the ubuntu on any other wifi network? | 12:32 |
| Ileden | hwq001: it is :D | 12:32 |
| Soothsayer | where exactly can I view my full list of running processes? I don't think I can see all the processes in the System Monitor. | 12:32 |
| Pici | WiK: Try double escaping. Like: \\n | 12:33 |
| csdwifi | recon69_lap, so if i understand this right I need to get a autoconf2.68 source and put the lines into the file specified in the patch | 12:33 |
| Ileden | hwq001: hm, i guess it could actually be the network transfer itself that causes the problem... | 12:33 |
| WiK | Pici: thanks, didnt even think of that | 12:33 |
| csdwifi | and then compile | 12:33 |
| WiK | brb | 12:33 |
| recon69_lap | gest: no, but you could download an infected file that could infect a windows pc if opened by that windows pc | 12:33 |
| gest | oh yes ik | 12:33 |
| Ileden | hwq001: it's transferring large amounts from SMB share to another SMB share :/ | 12:33 |

| doc-donkey | hello oh so great keeper of the ubuntu temple of knowledge. i've been away from home for quite a while and when i got home i had 160mb of update to download. in trying to thin this out, i started looking what is so big in the update package, so i ha ve the "Linux kernel headers for version 2.6.38 on x86/x86_64" the thing is im pretty sure i run on a 32bit version of the OS, could i discart this update ? | 12:34 |
| doc-donkey | i also have a bunch of QT4 files to download, im not into programing and was wondering if i could discard those updates since i never use the QT4 programing tools. are they usefull to the system even tho i never open the programs ? | 12:34 |

| JoAnneOminous | bazhang: Yes. | 12:34 |
| Ileden | I guess I should just make a simple robot that would press shift every now and then :D | 12:34 |
| bazhang | JoAnneOminous, thats jaunty so its end of life as IdleOne just pointed out | 12:35 |

| bazhang | gest pardon? | 12:35 |
| Ileden | ... i wonder what it does if i leave a key pressed with weight... | 12:35 |

| tsimpson | JoAnneOminous: read the document ubottu linked to | 12:35 |
| Dark_owl | <Ileden> stop joking a while and help me | 12:36 |
| Dark_owl | plz | 12:36 |
| bazhang | JoAnneOminous, theres a eolupgrades link in there | 12:36 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: no, you can use patch to apply the patch file, or edit the file /b/source/lib/replace/autoconfig-2.60.m4 and manualy add the patch changes | 12:36 |
| gest | I test malware in virtual machines so if a virus slips onto Linux it can hurt any of my windows pcs on my wifi network right? | 12:36 |
| tsimpson | gest: unless you install wine, and run the "virus" manually, you can't run windows programs in non-windows environments | 12:36 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: joking? i've only made one joke, that was about your all-caps message. | 12:36 |

| Dark_owl | Oh Gosh | 12:36 |
| cordoval | what is wrong with this error? | 12:36 |
| tsimpson | gest: you'd want to make sure the virtual machine can't access your local network, to be sure | 12:37 |
| gest | exactly tsimpson and even if I I'd run it with wine it would do anything | 12:37 |
| Murdock | I go out, bye bye all | 12:37 |

| cordoval | can anyone please help me? | 12:37 |
| dyd | virtual machine with XP on ubuntu | 12:37 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: it's not a joke that the linux drivers might not work with the adapter, even if it's otherwise ok. | 12:37 |
| tsimpson | gest: you can give it external access without internal access | 12:37 |
| wslayer | i have a problem one big hella of a problem. Ubuntu will boot only after three or two reboots before which grub shows error: file not found. | 12:37 |
| recon69_lap | gest: the windows machines should be looking out for themselves with there own anti virus, you ubuntu machine will not infect | 12:37 |
| gest | by using the NAT adapter | 12:38 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: and I've personally seen a perfectly ok adapter working with linux fail on another wifi station too, so that's quite possible as well. no jokes. | 12:38 |
| IdleOne | !fixgrub | wslayer | 12:38 |
| gest | ah ok my windows machines have verygood antivirus | 12:38 |
| ubottu | wslayer: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 - See !grub1 for releases before Karmic (9.10) | 12:38 |

| jamesiarmes_ | I am trying to set up an Ubuntu 10.10 server running apache 2.2.16 and PHP 2.3. When I browse go to the web browser using HTTPS I get the following in the log repeatedly: "[Thu Jul 14 08:31:51 2011] [notice] child pid xxxx exit signal Segmentation fault (11)". If I go to a page that doesn't include anything (images, css, etc.) everything loads fine. If I go to a page that has some includes then I occasionally get a file (usually a CSS or image file) that | 12:38 |
| jamesiarmes_ | fails to load. I am using mod_gnutls. | 12:38 |
| gest | I just wanted to make sure if I downloaded a windows virus on ubuntu t would affect my windows only pcs on the network | 12:38 |
| bazhang | billy2007, what version of ubuntu is the iso | 12:38 |
| dyd | Pici: thank you | 12:39 |
| ichbinder | hm, nobody has a hint? Maybe some buzz words I could search for? The actual message didn't bring up something that was helpful to me... :-/ | 12:39 |
| billy2007 | bazhang it isnt an ubuntu iso | 12:39 |
| bazhang | billy2007, what is it | 12:39 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: if I were you, I'd try using the windows driver via ndiswrapper | 12:39 |
| billy2007 | winxp ut it says in help file it will burn all bootable os | 12:40 |
| recon69_lap | gest: don't work like that. the virus has to get run on the pc. your linux box can't do that | 12:40 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: or maybe see if the linux driver (which is a kernel module) has some options to try | 12:40 |
| wslayer | IdleOne: i didn't install windows, there's only ubuntu on the machine | 12:40 |
| gest | oh ok | 12:40 |
| wslayer | IdleOne: anyway thanks | 12:40 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: you following what i saying about the patch file | 12:40 |
| compdoc | jamesiarmes_, is it an old computer? maybe you have a hardware issue | 12:40 |
| mosx1 | how do i get privilidges on the desktop gui 11.04 ? | 12:41 |
| tsimpson | ichbinder: password login is enabled by default, so someone probably put "PasswordAuthentication no" in /etc/ssh/sshd_config on the remote system | 12:41 |
| mosx1 | equiv of sudo - where it puts the key icon at top of screen | 12:41 |
| Dark_owl | Ileden: and to check that options ? | 12:41 |
| IdleOne | wslayer: the links provided will still help you to reinstall grub. How or why grub is gone doesn't really matter the point is you need to install it. | 12:41 |
| tyler_d | I used to "zoom out" and see all of the desktops using 'super+e' but now it does not work, anyone tell me how to get that functinoality back please? | 12:41 |
| tsimpson | mosx1: I think you mean gksudo | 12:42 |
| jamesiarmes_ | compdoc: I've tried it on a server we have in the office that is about 2 years old and I've tried it on Amazon's EC2 | 12:42 |
| JoAnneOminous | Do I just append that EOL upgrade sources.list to my /etc/apt/sources.list, or should I replace the whole thing? | 12:42 |
| bazhang | tyler_d, using unity? | 12:42 |
| tyler_d | bazhang: yes | 12:42 |
| csdwifi | recon69_lap, i'm trying to sort it out. not sure what version of autoconf i have but what I want to do is remove whatever version it is and do a ./config make and make install for 2.68 to make sure i'm current. the patch you linked to said it was a workaround for 2.6.3, i'm thinking it's fixed in 2.6.8 | 12:42 |
| ichbinder | tsimpson: ah, ok... hm, is there a way to have the passwords not clear text? | 12:42 |
| compdoc | jamesiarmes_, then that rules out hardware | 12:42 |
| tsimpson | JoAnneOminous: replace the current repositories with those from old-releases.ubuntu.com | 12:42 |
| bazhang | tyler_d, what about hitting the workspaces icon | 12:42 |
| tyler_d | bazhang: want the keyboard shortcut if its possible please | 12:42 |
| tsimpson | ichbinder: "clear text" is a bit misleading, the password is transmitted encrypted | 12:43 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: unfortunately i have to go now. ask someone about how to find out what kernel module your wifi card is using ,and how to check if it has options | 12:43 |
| bazhang | tyler_d, no idea, sorry | 12:43 |
| tyler_d | bazhang: doesn't have to be win+e | 12:43 |
| Ileden | Dark_owl: i would help you but i really have to go. | 12:43 |
| Dark_owl | o>k bro THANX ANY WAY :) | 12:43 |
| bazhang | tyler_d, probably set in ccsm though | 12:43 |
| ichbinder | tsimpson: within the tunnel, correct? | 12:43 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: what i'm saying is there is a bug in the code you downloaded, you need to edit the m4 config file in samba's build tree | 12:43 |
| curiouslogic | Hello | 12:43 |
| tsimpson | ichbinder: yes, so it can't be snooped over the network | 12:43 |
| tyler_d | bazhang: k, I will keep googling ;) thanks anyways | 12:43 |
| mosx1 | what i mean is...if i go looking in /etc/apache2/conf.d/ any files i open are read only | 12:43 |
| ichbinder | tsimpson: like: using the keys, the tunnel is established and encrypted. The password is then needed for login, kind of | 12:44 |
| bazhang | tyler_d, I'd ask in #compiz as well | 12:44 |
| csdwifi | oh oh oh... i see now. i'll go check the source file indicated in the patch then | 12:44 |
| bazhang | Dark_owl, whats the chipset for your nic | 12:44 |
| onla | where can I find the preferences and adminstrative task handling with unity ? like I want to configure my monitor settings and login settings, but in unity menu I can only add apps on it | 12:44 |
| desss | dli: thank you mate, installed system and running 11.04 now :)! | 12:44 |
| ichbinder | tsimpson: ah, thanks! Good to know. I put it there myself, but was mentally too unflexible to realize, that that might be the problem... thanks for teaching! :) | 12:44 |
| Dark_owl | bazhang Realtek | 12:44 |
| bazhang | onla, system settings ---launcher and menus , perhaps | 12:45 |
| tsimpson | ichbinder: the raw computer<->computer connection is established, then encrypted, then data (including passwords) is sent | 12:45 |
| bazhang | Dark_owl, exact model name and number please | 12:45 |
| Dark_owl | AWUS036H | 12:45 |
| tsimpson | ichbinder: you aren't the first person to be confused by the poor wording of that option | 12:45 |
| bazhang | Dark_owl, usb or pci | 12:45 |
| mosx1 | if i go looking in /etc/apache2/conf.d/ any files i open are read only - how can i open them as root ? | 12:45 |
| Dark_owl | bazhang: usb | 12:45 |
| recon69_lap | mosx1: you could use sudo nautilus on command line. be careful though | 12:45 |
| onla | bazhang, ah thanks | 12:45 |
| bazhang | lsusb to paste.ubuntu.com Dark_owl | 12:46 |
| ichbinder | tsimpson: yeah, that's what confused me... i mean, it's saying tunneled, but it should be capitalized :D | 12:46 |
| Dark_owl | bazhang: i works with airecrack and kismet | 12:46 |
| Sidewinder1 | mosx1, gksudo gedit. | 12:46 |
| Dark_owl | bazhang: it works with airecrack and kismet | 12:46 |
| bazhang | Dark_owl, so whats your issue | 12:46 |
| BluesKaj | JoAnneOminous, Upgrading the sources.list to new development release Make sure you edit it for ppas first 'sudo sed -i 's/lucid/maverick/' /etc/apt/sources.list , Warning , this can be risky, | 12:46 |
| Sidewinder1 | mosx1, Or gksudo nautilus. | 12:46 |
| recon69_lap | Sidewinder1: opps, keep forgetting about the gksudo | 12:46 |
| Sidewinder1 | :-) | 12:46 |
| ichbinder | onla: it should be where you can turn of your computer | 12:47 |
| ichbinder | onla: clicking on the power button, it should open a menu. At the bottom, you can find "System Settings" | 12:47 |
| BluesKaj | JoAnneOminous, substitute the proper versions in (/lucid/maverick/) | 12:47 |
| ichbinder | onla: or do what I did: http://scottlinux.com/2011/03/05/ubuntu-11-04-change-from-unity-to-classic-gnome/ :) | 12:47 |
| onla | I found the place now.. went to the "monitors" and my system is not finding the names for my monitors. it just says "unknown" and when I try to not mirror the 2 monitors, it doesn't work | 12:47 |
| Dark_owl | bazhang: i conntect the wifi well and can open only one page then it sops responsing and i must reconnect again every 3 or 4 seconds | 12:48 |
| ichbinder | onla: (you can see the button there :) ) | 12:48 |
| onla | yup thx... | 12:48 |
| Sidewinder1 | mosx1, You may wish to read: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo | 12:48 |
| ichbinder | onla: then, I guess, it's a problem with the X-config, etc... only solo-monitor, so can't really help. Sorry | 12:48 |
| Pici | BluesKaj: I don't see how that is helpful. | 12:48 |
| Pici | JoAnneOminous: Please follow tsimpson's advice. I don't think that what BluesKaj is telling you will do what you want. | 12:49 |
| csdwifi | aha, pesky pesky. recon69_lap - gnu m4 wasn't installed, i'm going to see if that solved anything | 12:49 |
| Dark_owl | bazhang: i conntect the wifi well and can open only one page then it sops responsing and i must reconnect again every 3 or 4 seconds | 12:50 |
| BluesKaj | Pici, : JoAnneOminous> Do I just append that EOL upgrade sources.list to my /etc/apt/sources.list, or should I replace the whole thing?i | 12:50 |
| BluesKaj | Pici, it's an option | 12:50 |
| bazhang | Dark_owl, dont see how that is "working well" | 12:50 |
| tsimpson | BluesKaj: your advice doesn't answer that, changing release wasn't the question | 12:51 |
| Pici | BluesKaj: tsimpson answered 4 minutes before you did. Simply doing s/oldrelease/newrelease/g is not the same as replacing archive.ubuntu.com with old-releases.ubuntu.com | 12:51 |
| bazhang | Dark_owl, try #aircrack-ng | 12:51 |
| tsimpson | BluesKaj: and simply replacing and old release name with a new one is not a good way to upgrade, and in fact will likely break badly | 12:51 |
| Will123456 | hey guys. is it a bad idea to share /tmp and /var partitions between operating systems? | 12:52 |
| BluesKaj | tsimpson, I did say it was risky | 12:52 |
| recon69_lap | Dark_owl: get the ip address of both machines and try ping them | 12:52 |
| Dark_owl | <bazhang> bro it connect WELL but can't browse internet | 12:52 |
| tsimpson | BluesKaj: there is "risky" and there is "likely to require you to scrap everything and do a fresh install" | 12:52 |
| BluesKaj | tsimpson, looks like that may be the case anyway | 12:53 |
| csdwifi | when i'm installing a package like autoconf do i have to specifiy it to my /usr/bin/ directory? | 12:53 |
| billy2007 | bazhang any ideas why startup disk creator wont load my iso | 12:53 |
| bazhang | billy2007, where does xp hand out iso? | 12:53 |
| JoAnneOminous | Okay...I'm a bit confused... | 12:53 |
| tsimpson | BluesKaj: no, there is a clear and documented procedure from upgrading from dapper to hardy | 12:53 |
| bazhang | JoAnneOminous, follow tsimpson 's advice please | 12:54 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: i'd just go with the default. | 12:54 |
| JoAnneOminous | I did what it says to do on the EOL upgrade page, and it's upgrading to karmic...which is also EOL? | 12:54 |
| * BluesKaj backs off | 12:54 | |
| JoAnneOminous | bazhang: I am, I think... | 12:55 |
| tsimpson | JoAnneOminous: did you run the command with "/etc/update-manager/release-upgrades" in it? | 12:55 |
| csdwifi | well, i successfuly ( i think) ran ./config ; make ; make install but i'm getting : bash: /usr/bin/autoconf: No such file or directory. | 12:55 |
| tsimpson | JoAnneOminous: make sure that /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades has "Prompt=lts", then re-try the upgrade | 12:55 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: you need to read the output of each comman to make sure they worked | 12:55 |
| JoAnneOminous | tsimpson: Yes, I ran that... | 12:55 |
| JoAnneOminous | Okay...I'll check... | 12:56 |
| tsimpson | JoAnneOminous: you should not when you want to run LTS -> LTS upgrades, I'll fix that documentation | 12:56 |
| Dark_owl | <bazhang> bro it connect WELL but can't browse internet | 12:56 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: the last bit will tell you if the worked correct | 12:56 |
| bazhang | Dark_owl, no idea about aircrack-ng and kismet, sorry | 12:56 |
| Dark_owl | <bazhang> not that but i can't browse internet using my wifi on ubuntu | 12:57 |
| csdwifi | recon69_lap, http://paste.ubuntu.com/644072/ | 12:58 |
| JoAnneOminous | tsimpson: Okay...I updated the /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades with the Prompt=lts...but the other upgrade to karmic is ongoing...should I not-interrupt it? | 12:58 |
| tsimpson | JoAnneOminous: as long as it hasn't started downloading, installing or removing packages, you can interrupt it | 12:58 |
| JoAnneOminous | tsimpson: I'm pretty certain it is already...I think because I told it to... | 12:59 |
| JoAnneOminous | tsimpson: It's performing a number of "Get" operations | 12:59 |
| tsimpson | JoAnneOminous: then I guess you'll just have to wait, and upgrade again when it's complete | 13:00 |
| JoAnneOminous | tsimpson: Okay...it's only another 20 minutes or so...thanks for your help... | 13:00 |
| mosx1 | I have no copy/paste functionality in my VNC Viewer session from Windows to Ubuntu, is it a server side setting ? I'm using x11vnc or is it client side setting ? | 13:01 |
| csdwifi | recon69_lap, i do see some bin files now in my autoconf-2.68/bin directory, should i just manually move them to usr/bin ? | 13:01 |
| JoAnneOminous | tsimpson: So...when it's done do I just re-do the "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude safe-upgrade" and "sudo do-release-upgrade" again with the new /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades ? | 13:01 |
| csdwifi | (they weren't there in the tarball) | 13:02 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: hmm, depends what the files are called. | 13:02 |
| JoAnneOminous | tsimpson: And should I do the "sudo do-release-upgrade" when it's done with the karmic before moving onto the LTS upgrade? | 13:02 |
| csdwifi | recon69_lap : they're autoconf autoheader autom4te autoreconf , all executable | 13:02 |
| JoAnneOminous | tsimpson: (sorry for all the annoying questions) | 13:03 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: no, dont copy them | 13:03 |
| recon69_lap | try 'make -B' | 13:03 |
| === zhongguo is now known as blueghost | ||
| tsimpson | JoAnneOminous: well do the normal package updates, then you may have to change that file back to "Prompt=normal" (as karmic wasn't LTS), then do-release-upgrade again | 13:04 |
| csdwifi | lots of warnings with that one... | 13:04 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: try 'make -B', i dont think it compiled | 13:04 |
| vooze | Hey.. I just reinstalled ubuntu 11.04.. but after removing emphaty and installing pidgin insted, when i close pidgin with the (X) it closes down, insted of staying online like IM should.. How can i change this? | 13:04 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: warning dont matter to programmers lol | 13:04 |
| csdwifi | well it's doing a lot more than last time... | 13:05 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: i forced it to rebuild everything to see if any error happen, you can look at the end to see what it did | 13:05 |
| th0r | vooze: it is an option in Preferences in Pidgin | 13:05 |

| Cycovince | Hello community :) | 13:06 |
| Sidewinder1 | Greetings. | 13:06 |
| csdwifi | is it normal for it to look like it's just looping? | 13:06 |
| Cycovince | I've got a small problem with Lifera (RSS reader). The launcher included in the messaging menu is gone :( | 13:07 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: yes | 13:07 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: could take a while, depending on you comp | 13:07 |
| csdwifi | i see it's starting to do things inside of /usr/bin/ so that is a good sign i guess =) | 13:07 |
| Ir0nman | I have a problem two folders are showing up as files | 13:08 |
| Ir0nman | and i cant access them from the browser idk how i broke them | 13:08 |
| JoAnneOminous | tsimpson: When it's done with the downloads I'll run the "do-release-upgrade" (having changed the prompt back to 'normal') and then change it to lts... | 13:08 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: you should see changes though, hope it's not doing anything in /usr/bin though :P | 13:08 |
| tsimpson | JoAnneOminous: yeah, that should be fine | 13:09 |
| stratos | old-releases.ubuntu.com is working again :-) | 13:09 |
| vooze | th0r, do you remember where? I cant find it | 13:10 |
| csdwifi | er, i think the warning might have been about this.. | 13:10 |
| csdwifi | nevermind it's done i believe... | 13:10 |
| JoAnneOminous | tsimpson: So, after changing back to Prompt=lts, do I need to reboot or something, or can I just jump into a new round of "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude safe-upgrade" and "sudo do-release-upgrade"? | 13:10 |
| th0r | vooze: Tools-Preferences-Interface set the system tray icon to show Always | 13:10 |
| csdwifi | no errors at the end | 13:11 |
| Ir0nman | ? | 13:11 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: then try make install | 13:11 |
| vooze | th0r, ah thanks alot :) | 13:11 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: read the out put, check the directory is lists for you binnary | 13:12 |
| csdwifi | recon69_lap, such as this = test -z "/usr/local/share/autoconf/autotest" || /bin/mkdir -p "/usr/local/share/autoconf/autotest" | 13:13 |
| tsimpson | JoAnneOminous: you shouldn't have to reboot, no | 13:13 |
| csdwifi | i still can't use autoconf from the command line... | 13:13 |
| tsimpson | JoAnneOminous: it may be a good idea, to boot into the newer kernel etc, though | 13:13 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: was hoping for 'entering dir xxx, copying file | 13:13 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: past the output | 13:14 |

| tylo | Hi | 13:16 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: what directory are you in | 13:17 |
| szal | hmm.. anyone have an idea what I need to change where if I want to have fsck on boot a little more verbose? standard option is --quiet, and when fsck checks a partition it only says which one and, "Your disk drives are being checked for errors. This may take some time.".. I'd like to pass the -C option (progress bars) for fsck on boot | 13:17 |
| tylo | i am trying currently ubuntu 11.04 and i wonder how i can set up my front headphone and microphone jack ? | 13:18 |
| Sidewinder1 | Ir0nman, I'm not really sure what you're saying; a "browser" will usually open files. If you're talking about Nautilus it should be able to open folders and access files. Please elaborate. :-) | 13:18 |
| csdwifi | home/chris/Downloads/autoconf-2.68/ | 13:18 |
| Ir0nman | http://i56.tinypic.com/i3cs5u.png | 13:18 |
| Ir0nman | those are showing like files but they are folders | 13:18 |
| csdwifi | is where i'm running makes from | 13:18 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: though we where trying to make samba, you in the right directory | 13:19 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: or did we just build autoconf-2-68 | 13:19 |
| csdwifi | yes we did just build autoconf 2 68 because i thought that a newer version would help the samba install | 13:20 |

| bazhang | mits is that optimus, or something other | 13:21 |
| Sidewinder1 | Ir0nman, That is weird. They look like binary files on tour Pendrive. Perhaps you could simply recreate the folders with Nautilus in the Pendrive? | 13:21 |
| Sidewinder1 | your, even. | 13:22 |
| mits | bazhang: hmm i don't think it's optimus (don't know what that is) | 13:22 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: i'd go back to your samba tree and try build that. | 13:22 |
| recon69_lap | csdwifi: hopefully we have not changed anything. you did not use sudo make install i take it | 13:23 |
| csdwifi | no i didn't | 13:23 |

| Quantum_Ion | reachingperfecti, You need youtube-dl | 13:39 |
| bazhang | reachingperfecti, user firefox addon video download helper | 13:39 |
| edbian | reachingperfecti: That used to be the case. Then firefox moved their tmp files. It is annoying to say the least. | 13:39 |
| szal | fuzzeelumpkins: using what driver? -> 'lspci -v' will show you under "VGA adapter" or whatever it's called | 13:39 |
| Will123456 | fuzzeelumpkins: that probably explains why it can't auto detect the native res (just a guess). if you can't use DVI or something like that, i recommend using xrandr to set the resolution | 13:39 |
| Sidewinder1 | reachingperfecti, You may wish to download the add-on to Firefox of UnPlug... | 13:39 |
| Quantum_Ion | reachingperfecti, Go to Synaptic Package Manager and enter youtube-dl | 13:40 |

| Laurenceb | ^why? | 13:41 |
| Quantum_Ion | reachingperfecti, http://rg3.github.com/youtube-dl/ | 13:41 |
| bazhang | reachingperfecti, youtube-dl uses the -t switch (or it did, it was broken for awhile there) | 13:41 |
| fuzzeelumpkins | I've tried following xrandr instructions with no success as well | 13:42 |
| yellar | how do you keep the screen from locking | 13:42 |
| bazhang | reachingperfecti, really easier to use the fx addon, no command line at all, and it will convert for as you dl | 13:42 |

| ron34563654 | Quantum_Ion, edbian bazhang , http://paste.ubuntu.com/644114/ | 13:43 |
| reachingperfecti | bazhang: what was the name of the addon | 13:43 |

| fuzzeelumpkins | yes, the output for the VGA was Kernel driver in use: nvidia | 13:44 |

| Sidewinder1 | Gotta' run. Have a great day, ALL! | 13:44 |
| Will123456 | fuzzeelumpkins: then you will want to use the nvidia-settings program, not xrandr | 13:44 |
| Will123456 | fuzzeelumpkins: that's assuming you're using the nvidia blob | 13:45 |
| Quantum_Ion | reachingperfecti, sometimes /tmp file such as .flv videos are stores in .cache/google-chrome/Default/Cache with Google Chrome | 13:46 |
| Quantum_Ion | reachingperfecti, cd .cache/google-chrome/Default/Cache and take a look in that directory but the file gets deleted fast | 13:46 |

| ChesterX | hi everybody, is it possible to run an application designed for ubuntu 10.04 on 11.04 (sort of a compatibility mode)? | 13:59 |
| bazhang | ChesterX, no | 13:59 |
| bazhang | ChesterX, whats the app | 13:59 |
| ChesterX | bazhang, it is not really an app. rather an gui for an already 11.04 compatible app (aircrack-ng) | 14:00 |
| bazhang | ChesterX, ok, whats the package name | 14:00 |
| ChesterX | bazhang, this package is not in the ubuntu repository - but i can give you the sourceforge link | 14:01 |
| oneliner | i can install nightly builds through apt-get upgrade at the console but the update manager gui fails to provide the option to "trust sources", is this a glitch? should i report it? | 14:01 |
| bazhang | ChesterX, the package name will suffice | 14:02 |
| ron34563654 | Quantum_Ion, i don't know what is this connection. i've a wl router. someone told me that that will solve it all. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1608095 would it? | 14:02 |

| Shinka | on Unity, how can I add a program on the bar on the left if it's not installed with the software manager (I have downloaded Eclipse). | 14:03 |
| bazhang | Shinka, run it, then right click keep on dock or similar | 14:03 |
| ChesterX | bazhang, main app package name "aircrack-ng", gui package name "wepcrackgui" | 14:03 |
| Shinka | bazhang: oh great thanks ! | 14:04 |
| bazhang | ChesterX, for lucid? a search of the repos shows no such package | 14:05 |
| oneliner | Pici; i use make-human (look it up, pretty cool 3d open source answer to "poser"), the thing is for the installation method i chose, nightly builds, i needed to add the make human repository to the software sources list, so far so goo, are you with me? | 14:05 |

| F3RR1S | I have the broadcom drivers installed, the wireless nic is active (light on laptop is on) but I cannot use wifi... any suggestions? | 14:06 |
| disciple | what's mean of "cpio -o > /dev/null" who can help me | 14:06 |
| F3RR1S | it is 11.04 | 14:06 |
| F3RR1S | with gdm | 14:06 |
| F3RR1S | gnome environment (i removed unity from the system) | 14:07 |
| ChesterX | bazhang, as i told you before this package does not form part of any of the ubuntu repository | 14:07 |
| oneliner | the intended idea was that the update manager would then fetch new nightly builds and update the package for me, and that works fine up to the point where it needs to "authenticate" the source, here the make human repository fails (has no public key) and the gui update manager tells me so, and here is the culprit; the gui update manager warms me that it couldnt check the authenticity of the source, but instead of giving me the option to "continue anyway" | 14:08 |
| oneliner | it simply has a close button | 14:08 |
| dmsuperman | What's the new way to send notifications in 11.04? Like notify-send | 14:09 |
| Pici | disciple: That won't do anything. cpio is supposed to take filenames on stdin and write their data to stdout. You're sending stdout to /dev/null so the data will go into oblivion. | 14:09 |
| bazhang | dmsuperman, for what application | 14:09 |
| bazhang | ChesterX, no idea sorry. you could ask in #aircrack-ng I suppose | 14:10 |
| Pici | oneliner: I suppose you could file a bug, but repositories are meant to have keys. | 14:10 |
| dmsuperman | bazhang: Arbitrary shell scripts | 14:10 |
| oneliner | on the other hand, running apt-get update && apt-get upgrade on the console prompts me with the appropriate "cannot authenticate makehuman-nightly continue? [Y/N]" | 14:10 |
| dmsuperman | Does it still use libnotify? | 14:10 |

| chocolates | it | 14:32 |
| Jovaro | any ideas on that, byroncoughlin ? | 14:33 |

| WilcoRogers | Thanks bazhang, I've got the server setup, and am able to connect, but I have some routing questions. | 14:51 |
| szal | tucemiux: and KDE comes w/ KSnapshot which has a host of config options to either capture the whole screen, the window under the mouse pointer, or a selection you draw up by hand, plus you can set the delay after which the screenshot is taken | 14:51 |
| Cial | So, Ubuntu decided that it wanted to remove some of its icons off of the top panel | 14:52 |
| byroncoughlin | Lmat Yes the one in the repository is old. Eclipse does not have a repository. In order to get the latest version you can go to eclipse.org download the version you want go into the root directory and run eclipse. As long as you have a jre available it should start right up | 14:52 |
| bazhang | WilcoRogers, please ask the channel, I'm not knowledgeable about vpn in the slightest (apart from knowing that link) | 14:52 |

| Tjololo12 | How do I install sun java? What's the package name? | 15:14 |
| Pici | Lmat: decide? normally you'll get the latest version. apt-cache policy packagename will tell you what versions are available though. | 15:14 |

| ubottu | Tjololo12: To install a Java runtime on Ubuntu on 10.04 LTS and newer, see http://tinyurl.com/2ffg7cc - For the Sun Java products and browser plugin, search for the sun-java6- packages in the !partner repository on Lucid (which must be enabled), or !multiverse repository on older releases. | 15:14 |
| bazhang | Tjololo12, from the partner repo | 15:14 |
| Laurenceb | lapaga: theres nothing there | 15:14 |
| Pici | Laurenceb: try using bash itself to execute it. i.e.: bash filename.bin | 15:14 |

| ubottu | Tjololo12: Canonical's partner repositories provide packages a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" » | 15:14 |
| airtonix | how was it that you would make dpkg reveal the path it installs each of the files in a deb ? | 15:15 |
| Tjololo12 | ah there we are, thank you | 15:15 |
| Pici | airtonix: dpkg -L packagename | 15:15 |
| bazhang | Tjololo12, or you can go into synaptic package manager under other software and enable there | 15:15 |
| Pici | airtonix: And the reverse is dpkg -S /path/to/file | 15:15 |
| Laurenceb | oh i need to run GoogleEarthLinux.bin | 15:15 |
| Fulgencio | wicd is not finding any wired connnection....why could that be for?¿ | 15:16 |
| tucemiux | Tru3fate: ahhh... the answer is samba, apparently you can use samba to access your shared folders which is an over kill for me, I once had that same problem and decided to just host an ubuntu server and store all my files there, windows and ubuntu can access the files without a glitch | 15:16 |
| Lmat | How do I put something on the path? | 15:16 |
| Lmat | Or change the path to accomodate a program? | 15:16 |
| bazhang | Fulgencio, wicd is for wireless, right? try ifconfig for ethernet | 15:16 |
| Fulgencio | wicd is for both, I thought...i actually have it running in another computer with a wired conenction | 15:17 |
| lapaga | Laurenceb, at least on my system it is larry@ubuntu:/opt/google/earth/free$ | 15:17 |
| Laurenceb | right | 15:17 |
| bazhang | Fulgencio, try sudo dhclient eth0 | 15:17 |
| Laurenceb | hmm it still wont load | 15:17 |
| tucemiux | yeah where is PATH defined??? I cant find it in .bashrc | 15:17 |
| Fulgencio | i got static ip, should i try it as well? | 15:18 |

| Eric-Nor | hi. need helt mount external usb hdd | 15:18 |
| bazhang | Eric-Nor, use fstab? | 15:18 |
| bazhang | !fstab | Eric-Nor | 15:18 |
| ubottu | Eric-Nor: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 15:18 |
| Fulgencio | bazhang: when i do ifconfig no eth shown, just lo | 15:19 |
| bazhang | Fulgencio, what about sudo ifup eth0 | 15:19 |
| Pici | tucemiux, Lmat: It is initially defined in /etc/environment, but for adding to it for yourself, you should add a PATH=/new/path:$PATH to your own .bashrc (or relevant $SHELL config file) | 15:19 |
| Lmat | What does bg do? man bg doesn't work and bg--help isn't very descriptive. | 15:19 |
| Tjololo12 | :( add-apt-repository: command not found Can't do package manager, I'm cli only | 15:19 |
| Tjololo12 | sorry, bazhang ^ | 15:19 |
| Eric-Nor | Thx, i will try | 15:19 |
| Fulgencio | bazhang: unkwnon interface | 15:19 |
| tucemiux | Pici: apparently on ubuntu it's on .profile | 15:19 |
| Lmat | Pici, Is that the normal way to get things done. Is it more normal to add a link that IS on the path rather than putting a whole directory on the path? | 15:20 |
| cg2916 | When I install from a Live USB, it says "Can't Find a Medium Containing a Live File System" and then switches to BusyBox | 15:20 |

| Fulgencio | kunji: im working in a cloned machine...where wicd was working properly....it its not on the cloned machine now. | 15:21 |
| tucemiux | Lmat: edit .profile and search for PATH, add the location of your application there BUT if you have your own app you should create it in ~/bin -- anything in there will be seen in your PATH | 15:21 |
| Tjololo12 | bazhang: no idea, it's what I found googling for "moodle appliance" | 15:21 |
| bazhang | Fulgencio, paste.ubuntu.com with the output of lspci please | 15:21 |
| Tjololo12 | any way I can find out? | 15:21 |
| Pici | Lmat: Yes, unless you have a reason to add a whole directory to your path, its common to just drop a symlink into something already in your path. | 15:21 |
| Lmat | tucemiux, Thanks. | 15:21 |
| bazhang | Tjololo12, lsb_release -a | 15:21 |

| Lmat | rumpe1, I already installed it. | 15:57 |

| desertlax | I just built what is intended to be an htpc with a core i3-2100 and I'm still not sure aobut the whole installing drivers and such part | 17:03 |
| dahankzter | Booting older 38.8 kernel in resuce mode says: No init found. Try passing init= bootarg | 17:04 |

| youcanlinux | desertlax - just ask away, some of us will probably dive right in. | 17:04 |

| Starman83 | Incarus6: Any ideas? | 17:05 |
| desertlax | so the short story is Is that 11.04 froze on me before it could even get install so I went with the 32 bit 10.04, I've never setup linux before and I intend to use XBMC most of the time | 17:05 |
| desertlax | it seems really slow right now and I'm wondering if I need to install drivers | 17:05 |

| Lmat | Unfortunately, I did it successfully yesterday, but I have no idea how it went. :( | 17:05 |
| Incarus6 | Starman83, what file system got your usb stick? | 17:06 |
| desertlax | but with the whole cpu and gpu on the same chip thing I'm not even sure where to begin finding driver...is that's what i even need haha...I've read a lot aobut xorg-edgers driver on some forums | 17:06 |
| desertlax | but not sure if that would even apply | 17:06 |
| tehnef | Lmat: check your ~/.bash_history :) | 17:06 |
| Lmat | tehnef, thanks. | 17:06 |
| youcanlinux | desertlax - try x86_64 if you're using a multi-core chip. | 17:06 |
| desertlax | I have a core i3-2100 | 17:06 |
| Starman83 | Incarus6: NTFS | 17:06 |
| desertlax | yeah it's dual core with hyperthreading I tihnk | 17:07 |

| youcanlinux | ok, you're set for 64-bit then... i have some info on this at my blog www dot you canlinux dot org | 17:07 |
| desertlax | er...shows 4 cores i should say | 17:07 |
| youcanlinux | oh yeah | 17:07 |
| youcanlinux | desertlax - how much memory does your system have ? | 17:07 |
| Lmat | tehnef, It looks like *.o did it based on the history. | 17:07 |
| desertlax | haha just 1 4gb stick ATM | 17:08 |
| Starman83 | I believe I lack the proper triggers to make the system mount the device automatically and put an icon on desktop. Maybe it's because I installed from a minimal system? | 17:08 |
| desertlax | and I know the whole can't use all 4 gigs thing due to the 32-bit but I just figured I'd have no real use for much | 17:08 |
| Incarus6 | Starman83, is "/etc/auto.master" configured properly? | 17:08 |
| Phr3d13 | need support for a pci vt6410 raid/ide card, ubuntu sees the controller, but not any drives | 17:08 |
| Starman83 | There is no /etc/auto.master file | 17:09 |
| DosTuMai | Ohai. | 17:10 |
| Starman83 | There is no autofs or automount installed | 17:10 |
| Incarus6 | Starman83, is automounting working with other usb sticks? | 17:10 |
| uri_ | hi | 17:10 |
| Starman83 | Nope | 17:10 |
| uri_ | i have installed ubuntu on a windows partition with wubi | 17:10 |
| Starman83 | Not even with cdrom i guess :) | 17:10 |
| uri_ | but when i start on ubuntu i cannot see the windows files | 17:11 |
| desertlax | so something that tipped me off that i may need graphics drivers is that I can't enable any of the "visual effects" (sorry I forget if that's the correct term), it says the system isn't capable | 17:11 |
| Incarus6 | Starman83, you could try usbmount http://usbmount.alioth.debian.org/ | 17:11 |
| Incarus6 | !info usbmount | 17:11 |
| ubottu | usbmount (source: usbmount): automatically mount and unmount USB mass storage devices. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.0.21 (natty), package size 7 kB, installed size 112 kB | 17:11 |
| uri_ | i cannot mount windows partition | 17:11 |
| uri_ | also | 17:11 |
| wildc4rd | evenin all | 17:11 |
| uri_ | its the same partition | 17:12 |
| uri_ | how can i see windows files ? | 17:12 |
| Starman83 | Should I just install this? | 17:12 |
| desertlax | one more question....is anyone aware of a problem with z68 chipsets and ubuntu, XBMC or linux in general? | 17:12 |
| uri_ | Incarus6, | 17:12 |
| Starman83 | What is the package that gets installed with a normal desktop ubuntu system? | 17:12 |
| DosTuMai | My Ubuntu asploded when I upgraded to Natty... | 17:12 |
| Incarus6 | Starman83, the package is in the repo http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/usbmount | 17:14 |
| burner | I installed gnome 3 via the gnome3-team ppa and i want back to gnome 2... I installed ppa-purge and purged it, but I can't install ubuntu-desktop due to a lot of things referencing gnome3 yet. anyone? | 17:14 |
| Pici | Starman83: ubuntu-desktop? | 17:14 |
| hylian | is there a way to get the console to do one thing after another? i would like wget to download about 22 files, and it would take a while, and i was wondering if i could get a list of commands to follow, without creating a bash script file. (just a little lazy) | 17:14 |
| Starman83 | Well, ok Ill try that one out | 17:15 |
| Starman83 | Thanks for the hint | 17:15 |
| celthunder | hylian man curl | 17:15 |
| hylian | curl will do it? cool, ill look at the man page. | 17:15 |
| Incarus6 | hylian, use "&&" after every command, that means: run the next command if the last one was running correctly | 17:15 |
| hylian | celthunder, "No manual entry for curl" | 17:16 |
| hylian | Incarus6, thanks, that's what i was looking for! | 17:16 |
| Incarus6 | uri_, please be more accurate and don't ask just me | 17:16 |
| === nagaway is now known as nagchampa | ||
| DosTuMai | Feel liek such a n00b... Since upgrading to Natty, most of my programs wont open. Halp plox? I ran outta ideas. =| | 17:19 |
| uri_ | I have installed ubuntu 10.04 on my netbook, with wubi, under the same partition (i think) as windows 7, but when i restart on ubuntu i d'ont see file system of windows 7, i can't even mount that partition (its supposed to be the same partition) so i don't know how to see my windows files | 17:20 |
| Incarus6 | DosTuMai, have you tried to run a program from terminal so you got an output? | 17:20 |
| DosTuMai | Tried, doesn't work. | 17:21 |
| === nagchampa is now known as nagaway | ||
| uri_ | is that more clear ? | 17:21 |
| Incarus6 | uri_, wubi isn't installing ubuntu in the same partition as windows - it is installing ubuntu in a directory of windows and that is also the 'problem' why you can't mount the partition you are currently working in. It isn't supposed to work like this | 17:22 |
| === mquin_ is now known as mquin | ||
| uri_ | but where are located my windows files | 17:22 |
| uri_ | i can't access them ? | 17:23 |
| tsimpson | uri_: (apparently) the windows file can be accessed from /host within Ubuntu (Places > Computer > File System > Host) | 17:23 |
| Lmat | What does this mean: "cp: cannot stat `location': No such file or directory" ? | 17:24 |
| Lmat | I'm trying to copy like this: "cp -r /location/*.a ~/otherloc/" | 17:24 |
| uri_ | ok i see | 17:24 |
| Lmat | the first location is owned by root. | 17:24 |
| uri_ | thank you | 17:24 |
| tsimpson | Lmat: that /location/ doesn't exist or there are no .a files in it | 17:25 |
| Incarus6 | Lmat, does location exist in the root directory /? | 17:25 |
| Lmat | tsimpson, I would want to believe it, but it's not true. | 17:25 |
| tsimpson | Lmat: you asked what the error means, that's what it means :) | 17:25 |
| Lmat | tsimpson, So be it ;) | 17:25 |
| tsimpson | Lmat: are you sure you did "/location" or "location"? | 17:26 |
| Lmat | tsimpson, sure. | 17:26 |
| llutz | Lmat: "ls -ld /location" | 17:26 |
| Lmat | tsimpson, it's really goofy...when I try , say, find... | 17:27 |
| tsimpson | Lmat: is /location a symbolic link? | 17:27 |
| Lmat | tsimpson, no. | 17:28 |
| Lmat | It seems to be working differently now... | 17:28 |
| Incarus6 | Lmat, please give the output of llutz command | 17:28 |
| stephenmac7 | Has anyone had issues with the new update of the kernel + grub? | 17:28 |
| Lmat | Incarus6, | 17:28 |
| stephenmac7 | Well, maybe it was just the kernel | 17:28 |
| ActionParsnip | stephenmac7: all working here. What is your issue? | 17:29 |
| DosTuMai | Loads, it's stopped me running nigh on every program I've installed. | 17:29 |
| stephenmac7 | Grub died | 17:29 |
| stephenmac7 | I had to reinstall the whole OS | 17:29 |
| coz_ | stephenmac7, as I said earlier,, unity broke for me today,, I havent figured out the issue however | 17:29 |
| Lmat | Incarus6, llutz http://pastie.org/2213497 | 17:29 |
| Incarus6 | stephenmac7, according to the other users who asked the same question before here there are some users who have issues with the new kernel ;) but the kernelupdate reverted my grub appearance settings | 17:29 |
| tripelb | http://www.geek.com/articles/news/dell-laptop-with-ubuntu-leads-woman-to-drop-out-of-college-20090116/ | 17:29 |
| ActionParsnip | stephenmac7: do you get the grub recovery prompt? | 17:30 |
| Warrior` | i have this question,what is gnome/kde/xfce basically,are they high level layer of X system ? | 17:30 |
| Incarus6 | Lmat, is /location just a placeholder or was it the wrong command? | 17:30 |
| Lmat | Incarus6, placeholder. | 17:30 |
| stephenmac7 | Yes I did. | 17:30 |
| Incarus6 | Lmat, so can you tell us the original command without placeholders which is giving back the issue? | 17:30 |
| silidan | just in case ill need it, is it possible to run Ubuntu 11.04 without thta unity thing? | 17:31 |
| Lmat | Incarus6, "sudo cp -r /media/sf_temp/partwriter\ v.4/*.cpp" | 17:31 |
| Pici | !classic | silidan | 17:31 |
| ubottu | silidan: The default interface in Ubuntu 11.04 is !Unity. To switch back to regular !GNOME: log out, click your username, click the Session box at the bottom of the screen, and select "Ubuntu Classic". | 17:31 |
| youcanlinux | back | 17:31 |
| Lmat | Incarus6, "sudo cp -r /media/sf_temp/partwriter\ v.4/*.cpp /home/aaron/code/" | 17:31 |
| Warrior` | i have this question,what is gnome/kde/xfce basically,are they high level layer of X system ? | 17:31 |
| ActionParsnip | stephenmac7: you didn't need to reinstall. Only Grub was at fault. You can boot to the liveCD and put Grub back on | 17:31 |
| silidan | Pici: thanks | 17:31 |
| stephenmac7 | I already erased Ubuntu 11.04 and reinstalled from a live USB | 17:31 |
| Incarus6 | Lmat, why don't you use <<"">>? your command contains a space | 17:32 |
| Lmat | Incarus6, http://pastie.org/2213509 | 17:32 |
| Pici | Lmat: are there any .cpp files directly in /media/sf_temp/partwriter\ v.4/ or are those in it's subdirectoriues? | 17:32 |
| stephenmac7 | I just don't want to have to reinstall from scratch when I update the kernel this time, | 17:32 |
| Warrior` | can somebody clear my doubt | 17:32 |
| ActionParsnip | silidan: oneiric will use unity2D instead of classic | 17:32 |
| Lmat | Pici, http://pastie.org/2213497 | 17:32 |
| Incarus6 | Lmat, try "sudo cp -r "/media/sf_temp/partwriter v.4/*.cpp" /home/aaron/code/" | 17:32 |
| stephenmac7 | after grub died I tried the netinstall and it said it couldn't install grub | 17:32 |
| Lmat | Incarus6, http://pastie.org/2213514 | 17:33 |
| stephenmac7 | Then I decided to install LILO and that didn't work either because it didn't detect my SSD | 17:33 |
| ActionParsnip | stephenmac7: you shouldn't. What is the output of: lsb_release -d | 17:33 |
| tsimpson | Lmat: why are you using sudo? | 17:33 |
| silidan | anyone here that actually likes unity? | 17:33 |
| Lmat | tsimpson, Because the destination files are owned by root. | 17:33 |
| * tsimpson guesses FUSE is involved | 17:33 | |
| Incarus6 | Lmat, try "sudo cp -r "/media/sf_temp/partwriter\ v.4/*.cpp" /home/aaron/code/" | 17:34 |
| stephenmac7 | silidan: ME! :) | 17:34 |
| Lmat | Incarus6, You're double-escaping the space. That's no good. | 17:34 |
| tsimpson | Lmat: try without | 17:34 |
| silidan | curse on you ;) | 17:34 |
| stephenmac7 | silidan: Why? | 17:34 |
| Lmat | Incarus6, http://pastie.org/2213524 | 17:35 |
| silidan | dunno on first sight it made finding system tools a pain in the ass... | 17:35 |
| Incarus6 | Lmat, you directory is called "partwriter\ v.4" it contains a space and special sign which is causing that issue | 17:35 |
| silidan | i missed the system menue | 17:35 |
| TBotNik | All, Couple quick Qs. 1. Have DT and connect with wireless, but want to open eth0 to use router for local network. Anyone have resources for this? 2. Have bash script trying to work on remote web server, and giving error. Will PB and send link. | 17:35 |
| Incarus6 | Lmat, can't you just rename the directory? | 17:35 |
| stephenmac7 | Description: Ubuntu 11.04 | 17:35 |
| silidan | also for synaptic i had to klick me through and taka alot of load time... | 17:35 |
| TrentonAdams | Where do I get sun-java6? | 17:35 |
| tsimpson | Lmat: seriously, try without sudo | 17:35 |
| silidan | talking bout live system though | 17:35 |
| Lmat | tsimpson, http://pastie.org/2213527 | 17:35 |
| Pici | Incarus6: backslashes escape the space. | 17:35 |
| TrentonAdams | sun-java6 for 11.04 that is | 17:35 |
| Lmat | Incarus6, Which directory? and why would I rename it? | 17:35 |
| ActionParsnip | silidan: works fine here. Its largely ignored as i launch apps from guake and ALT+TAB between apps. My mouse rarely gets a lookin | 17:35 |
| tsimpson | Lmat: how did you mount the media? | 17:36 |
| Pici | Lmat: humor me, get rid of the -r. | 17:36 |
| Warrior` | <tsimpson> Lmat: why are you using sudo? | 17:36 |
| Warrior` | <silidan> anyone here that actually likes unity? | 17:36 |
| Warrior` | <Lmat> tsimpson, Because the destination files are owned by root. | 17:36 |
| Warrior` | * bluenemo (~bluenemo@g230188240.adsl.alicedsl.de) has joined #ubuntu | 17:36 |

| stephenmac7 | ActionParsnip: Do you think I have an old one or something? Or maybe a daily from oneric, I don't think so. | 17:36 |
| Lmat | tsimpson, I'm using VirtualBox. | 17:36 |
| Incarus6 | Pici, I'm not sure if backslash is a valid file name symbol | 17:36 |
| stephenmac7 | It was the big orange button you can't miss on the download page | 17:36 |
| silidan | also unitys default desktop switching sheme was actually more cumbersome to me than before | 17:36 |
| Lmat | Pici, http://pastie.org/2213536 | 17:36 |
| silidan | im currently installing ubuntu 11.04 on my laptop though... ill give it a real chance | 17:37 |
| Pici | Lmat: can you pastebin the output of: mount ? | 17:37 |
| stephenmac7 | silidan: You can still use the keyboard shortcut | 17:37 |
| silidan | if it fails me im back at debian sid even on my laptop | 17:37 |
| Lmat | Pici, I didn't use mount. | 17:37 |
| stephenmac7 | ActionParsnip: Still there? | 17:37 |
| Lmat | Pici, Virtual Box "Auto-mount"s the drive. | 17:37 |
| Incarus6 | Lmat, can you rename "partwriter v.4" to "partwriter"? | 17:37 |
| stephenmac7 | I'll ask when I reboot... | 17:37 |
| sudokill | Lmat, try tabbing instead of the quotes | 17:37 |
| Pici | Lmat: try it anyway. | 17:37 |
| Wantstolearn | Hi.I have bean getting this error when I shutdown or restart the computer.Bean getting it rendomly for about 10 times through out the month. | 17:37 |
| Lmat | Incarus6, um...that's very difficult and I don't think there's a point to it. | 17:37 |
| Wantstolearn | http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/5799/erroriem.jpg | 17:37 |
| Lmat | sudokill, I can't tab unless I use sudo su (because the directories are owned by root)> | 17:38 |
| ActionParsnip | stephenmac7: what is the output of the command i gave, please | 17:38 |
| TrentonAdams | how do I globally set the cpu governor? | 17:38 |
| Lmat | Pici, http://pastie.org/2213544 | 17:38 |
| sudokill | Lmat, but you're using sudo cp anyway :s | 17:38 |
| Lmat | sudokill, Yeah, it might work with sudo su | 17:39 |
| ActionParsnip | TrentonAdams: http://www.multimediaboom.com/how-to-install-java-in-ubuntu-11-04-natty-narwhal-ppa/ | 17:39 |
| StephenS | IS ISPConfig accepted in ubuntu? | 17:39 |
| TrentonAdams | thanks ActionParsnip | 17:39 |
| Lmat | yeah, it works with sudo su. | 17:39 |
| bytesaber_work | I need to add "chainloader +1" to an entry in my grub.cfg. But if it's just going to eventually get overwritten, what should I do instead? | 17:40 |
| StephenS | <?> | 17:40 |
| sudokill | bytesaber_work, why would it be overwritten? | 17:40 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber_work: i believe its added in /etc/grub.d somewhere | 17:40 |
| bytesaber_work | sudokill, because it's how grub2 works | 17:41 |
| ActionParsnip | !grub2 | bytesaber_work | 17:41 |
| ubottu | bytesaber_work: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 - See !grub1 for releases before Karmic (9.10) | 17:41 |

| Lmat | tsimpson, Yeah, I read that. | 17:41 |
| Lmat | tsimpson, What about it? | 17:41 |
| sudokill | Wantstolearn, try uninstall graphics drivers see if it still does it | 17:42 |
| tsimpson | Lmat: well it looks like you need to add the uid= option to the mount command so you can access it properly | 17:42 |
| Wantstolearn | Tryed that 3 times | 17:42 |
| Wantstolearn | properly via the wiki guide | 17:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Sudokill: grub.cfg is generated by the grub2 config files. They are read when you run: sudo update-grub which is also ran when you install a | 17:42 |

| Wantstolearn | ati | 17:42 |
| sudokill | ActionParsnip, ok | 17:43 |
| Lmat | tsimpson, I use VirtualBox Auto-mount. Maybe there's a way to have VirtualBox mount differently. | 17:43 |
| bytesaber_work | ActionParsnip, where would you put that in the desired file in grub.d ? | 17:43 |
| TBotNik | hello anyone read my posts? | 17:43 |
| bytesaber_work | ActionParsnip, those are really complex | 17:43 |
| Lmat | tsimpson, checked out .bash_history, yesterday I had sudo su to do it. | 17:43 |
| Incarus6 | !ask | TBotNik | 17:43 |
| ubottu | TBotNik: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 17:43 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber_work: the grub2 doc ubottu gave will no doubt say | 17:44 |
| tsimpson | Lmat: I don't have virtual box so I don't know, but there is a channel #vbox maybe they know more | 17:44 |
| bytesaber_work | ActionParsnip, no thank you | 17:44 |
| Lmat | tsimpson, probably. Thanks again for your help. | 17:44 |
| Lmat | After sudo su, how do I exit super-user? | 17:45 |
| schmo | hey | 17:45 |
| bytesaber_work | grub2 is shit | 17:45 |
| bastidrazor | Lmat: type exit | 17:45 |
| TBotNik | Incarus6: Bot don't answer Qs. So do you have an answer? | 17:45 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber_work: doesn't os-prober just add it for you? | 17:45 |
| Lmat | bastidrazor, But when I type exit in a bash script, the bash script stops. | 17:45 |
| bytesaber_work | 15 years of managing boot loaders then hit with grub2 nonsense. | 17:45 |
| Lmat | bastidrazor, I mean, it pauses...or something. | 17:45 |
| bastidrazor | Lmat: start the script with a & at the end.. script & | 17:46 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber_work: actually grub2 makes a whole tonne of things better | 17:46 |
| bytesaber_work | ActionParsnip, no i have to manually add chainloader +1 to boot some other partitions i'm working with every time. | 17:46 |
| TBotNik | Repeating: All, Couple quick Qs. 1. Have DT and connect with wireless, but want to open eth0 to use router for local network. Anyone have resources for this? 2. Have bash script trying to work on remote web server, and giving error. PB link paste.ubuntu.com/644262/ | 17:46 |
| Lmat | bastidrazor, What does that do? | 17:46 |
| bytesaber_work | ActionParsnip, sure if you're working with just one copy of ubuntu | 17:46 |
| === hajcz is now known as sj65 | ||
| bytesaber_work | i need to fire off boot loaders in other partitions | 17:46 |
| Incarus6 | TBotNik, If I would know the answer I would 'most likely reply', so no | 17:47 |
| bastidrazor | Lmat: detaches it from the terminal meaning the terminal doesn't have to be open for the script to continue running | 17:47 |
| bytesaber_work | not have grub2 attempt to boot the OS's in those paritiotns directly. For my tasks i need those specific boot codes exec'd | 17:47 |
| Lmat | bastidrazor, oh no...how do I get back to the script when it needs my password, etc.? | 17:47 |
| superawesomeness | hello ubunto world | 17:47 |
| rww | TBotNik: Which distribution is the remote server running? | 17:47 |
| bastidrazor | Lmat: type fg | 17:47 |
| sudokill | bytesaber_work, i just use different drives for different os if i need it saves a whole load of pita | 17:47 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber_work: its other things, grub legacy had a lot of shortcomings which grub2 solves. You just need to work out where to add the option | 17:47 |
| Lmat | When I put sudo su in a script, the script stops at that line. | 17:47 |
| bytesaber_work | sudokill, no practical for our facility | 17:47 |
| Lmat | and it gives me a terminal to type in again. Then, when I type exit, the script continues (of course, not as root because I typed exit). | 17:48 |
| TBotNik | rww: Not sure, let me check | 17:48 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber_work: i'd ask in #grub as well. They may be able to advise | 17:48 |
| sudokill | Lmat, i think just su will be fine | 17:48 |
| Wantstolearn | So any ideas | 17:48 |
| Lmat | sudokill, Will it act differently? | 17:48 |
| TBotNik | Incarus6: Well then don't BOT someone that is asking legit Qs | 17:48 |
| sudokill | no | 17:49 |
| bytesaber_work | ActionParsnip, i'm in there. kinda quiet. Thank you for the help tho | 17:49 |
| rww | TBotNik: If it's Ubuntu, those aren't the right directories and filenames for Ubuntu servers. If it's running something RedHat-based (which is what uses those filenames), you'd need to ask in the channel for that distribution. | 17:49 |
| sudokill | Lmat, if you have a root account i use su - | 17:49 |
| Incarus6 | TBotNik, ubottu said "If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-)" | 17:49 |
| bytesaber_work | just frustrating trying to do a 2 second task you've done for years but can't. | 17:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Sudokill: use sudo -i instead | 17:49 |
| Lmat | sudokill, root doesn't have a password. | 17:49 |
| sudokill | Lmat, i thought you have a root account? | 17:50 |
| Lmat | sudokill, Why? | 17:50 |
| sudokill | i forgot lol let me scroll back | 17:50 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber_work: you are probably having issues due to thinking the old way to a new app | 17:50 |
| TBotNik | rww: Yeah I'm thinking maybe some version of CentOS, but not sure. Anyway is basic bash failure, cause is 'remature exit' error and not jumping out at me so not as good at debugging as I think I am. LOL :) | 17:51 |
| Phr3d13 | still seeking support for a pci via vt6410 raid/ide card | 17:51 |
| balaji_ | i have two swap partitions. /dev/sda10 and /dev/sda6. always on boot sda6 is used as swap. now i want to delete sda6 and sda10 should me made as default swap. how to do this | 17:51 |
| Phr3d13 | still seeking support for a pci via vt6410 raid/ide card. ubuntu sees the controller, but not the drives attached to it | 17:51 |
| TBotNik | rww: premature not remature, Ha HA LOL | 17:51 |
| Lmat | So is there a way to sudo su in a script, run some commands, then exit and run more commands? | 17:52 |
| TBotNik | rww: Think it is something inside the "IF Then" | 17:52 |
| Incarus6 | balaji_, you can start gparted, right click on /dev/sda6 and disable it and right click on /dev/sda10 and enable it | 17:53 |
| TBotNik | rww: I know remote host is not U-Box as I have to "su"+ pwd to log to superuser instead of sudo cmd. | 17:54 |
| silidan | OMFG, ubuntu default install on single hard drive is without separate root and home partition... | 17:54 |
| silidan | how can i fix this? | 17:54 |
| bastidrazor | !seperatehome > silidan | 17:54 |
| bastidrazor | !home > silidan | 17:55 |
| ubottu | silidan, please see my private message | 17:55 |
| xangua | silidan: make a partitin for home, and ubuntu doesn't have root activated by default | 17:55 |
| TBotNik | rww: If we change the Apache restart to run with /etc/init.d/apache2 restart, then all other code should run on U-Box, least I think, since simple move ('mv') and copy ('cp') commands. | 17:56 |
| Ubuntu___ | Hello there, I need some help with Ubuntu | 17:56 |
| silidan | now tell me how i can shrink a ext4 root partition withtou unmounting it | 17:56 |
| balaji_ | incarus6:Thank you | 17:57 |
| Ubuntu___ | I have the version 11 of it and I can't put the resolution of the screen like I had in windows. How can I add new resolutions to ubuntu? | 17:57 |
| somsip | silidan: noooo, Boot into LiveCD or CD with gparted on similar on it | 17:57 |
| sudokill | silidan, you cant | 17:57 |
| sudokill | afaik | 17:57 |
| sudokill | silidan, do it from a livecd | 17:58 |
| Ubuntu___ | I have the version 11 of it and I can't put the resolution of the screen like I had in windows. How can I add new resolutions to ubuntu? | 17:58 |
| dee27 | u want to change your resolution | 17:59 |
| sudokill | Ubuntu___, maybe xrander or somehting i never tried it | 17:59 |
| ActionParsnip | Ubuntu___: which video chip? | 17:59 |
| TBotNik | rww: Reason for this is permissions will not allow a direct upload on this machine, so have to load to local user folder, then jump to SU and execute the commands or script. Right now the uploaded httpd.conf file has an error, so trying the scrip with 'restore' option to make this quick and not keep the server out of production with the errors occur. Debugging the Apache errors is another effort, but have some other guys helping with that, | 18:00 |
| bytesaber_work | Am i'm trying to add the line "chainloader +1" to one of the files in /etc/grub.d/ ? | 18:00 |
| bytesaber_work | gawd. vim /boot/grub/menu.lst; edit file; save; reboot. | 18:01 |
| bytesaber_work | but no... now it's all in hebrew | 18:01 |
| silidan | sudokill: yea thanks ill do it with the debain net install cd | 18:02 |
| sudokill | silidan, does that have gparted? | 18:02 |
| sudokill | net install sounds bad | 18:02 |
| sudokill | to me | 18:02 |
| Ubuntu___ | I have the version 11 of it and I can't put the resolution of the screen like I had in windows. How can I add new resolutions to ubuntu? | 18:02 |
| silidan | sudokill: well it installs debian... and lets me partition it too | 18:03 |
| sudokill | silidan, ok try it | 18:03 |
| silidan | sudokill: yea ill try ubuntu again in the next version... | 18:03 |
| sudokill | ok | 18:03 |
| Lmat | tsimpson, FYI, the way that is good is | 18:04 |
| avelldiroll | silidan: i don't know of any official iso that won't let you set the partitions | 18:04 |
| Lmat | sudo bash << EOF ...commands... EOF | 18:04 |
| sudokill | avelldiroll, but not all come with gparted which is easiest | 18:05 |
| Phr3d13 | still seeking support for a pci via vt6410 raid/ide card. ubuntu sees the controller, but not the drives attached to it | 18:05 |
| avelldiroll | silidan: that's arguable, but they all come with a partitionning tool | 18:05 |
| ActionParsnip | Phr3d13: have you tried contacting via? | 18:05 |
| Phr3d13 | LOL! hahaha | 18:06 |
| avelldiroll | silidan: and if you do want to use gparted just set your partition from a livecd before installing | 18:06 |
| Phr3d13 | like the other million people that got no where? | 18:06 |
| ActionParsnip | Phr3d13: it may help... | 18:06 |
| ActionParsnip | Phr3d13: its free to do too | 18:07 |
| avelldiroll | Phr3d13: "everybody knew this was impossible, an ignorant came by and did it" | 18:07 |
| edbian | What did I walk into? | 18:08 |
| Sidewinder1 | Stepped into it many times myself... | 18:09 |
| silidan | avelldiroll: i could have avoided it if ubuntu showed me how it wanted to partition the harddrive when i selceted use the whole harddrive... | 18:09 |
| sudokill | silidan, whats the problem with it | 18:10 |
| avelldiroll | silidan: so your point is that ubuntu doesn't read your mind ?? | 18:10 |
| avelldiroll | +installer | 18:10 |
| ActionParsnip | edbian: user has a pci pata controller and it isn't working under ubuntu, its worth the price of a few pints of beer and s/he doesn't want to return it and get a friendlier one | 18:10 |
| silidan | sudokill: no my point is ubuntu didnt show me how it actually partitions... | 18:10 |
| silidan | before starting the installation | 18:11 |
| edbian | ActionParsnip: mhmm. Thanks :P | 18:11 |
| sudokill | silidan, afaik its a big / and a swap | 18:11 |
| avelldiroll | silidan: there is a confirmation screen before partitioning though | 18:11 |
| raginkestrel | Hey everyone! Is anyone familiar with xscreensaver? | 18:11 |
| silidan | hm... none that shows how it gets partitiones exactly... only telling ubuntu uses teh whole harddrive, no furthe rdetails | 18:11 |
| sudokill | silidan, it makes a big root, and a small swap | 18:12 |
| silidan | i know this NOW | 18:12 |
| avelldiroll | silidan: i believe you went to fast, because i am pretty sure there is | 18:12 |
| avelldiroll | *too | 18:12 |
| ActionParsnip | silidan: remember the target audience of Ubuntu | 18:12 |
| sudokill | silidan, you could have googled it | 18:12 |
| sudokill | but | 18:12 |
| sudokill | i suppose it would be nice to show you how it partitions | 18:13 |
| === Zorlin is now known as Guest3378 | ||
| silidan | im very sure it didnt tell me... cause i went back and forth... and couldnt get the info... i shoudl have listened to my gut and do it manually.. | 18:13 |
| sudokill | silidan, but whats the problem with the way it partitions anyway? you want seperate /home? | 18:13 |
| bytesaber_work | There are enties in grub.cfg for my other operating systems. They are listed down under the 30_os-prober section. None of the boot correctly, unless if i manually enter "chainloader +1" during boot time. So..... How do I add that permanently. | 18:13 |
| Sivik | I am missing all the close/minimize/maximize settings for all my windows. | 18:13 |
| Sivik | how do I get them back? | 18:13 |
| bytesaber_work | Each of those partitions have their own boot code that works properly with each OS they host. | 18:14 |
| dankest_ | back | 18:14 |
| bytesaber_work | I fail due to my "old thinking" | 18:14 |
| ActionParsnip | silidan: i always say if you know how to manually partition effectively then you should | 18:14 |
| bytesaber_work | because MBR and BIOS apparently is something the world doesn't use anymore. | 18:14 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber_work: bios is used every boot | 18:15 |
| bytesaber_work | i know. i'm being sarcastic | 18:15 |
| bytesaber_work | people are saying grub2 exists to push efi and gpt | 18:15 |
| Sivik | anyone know why my open windows are not showing up at the bottom of the tab and why I do not have the close/maximize/minimize for all my windows? | 18:16 |
| sudokill | to push it? hardly anyone needs gpt | 18:16 |
| bytesaber_work | ActionParsnip, am i just going about my multi boot setup with grub2 all wrong?? | 18:16 |
| univ_ | join #pyramid | 18:16 |

| Sivik | Dr_Willis: are you around? | 18:17 |
| univ_ | Sidewinder1, thanks. Just a typing error ;) | 18:18 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber_work: grub2 is weird but once you get it then you'll see it does a lot for you. | 18:18 |
| univ_ | keyboyard's fault, as usual | 18:18 |
| Sidewinder1 | NP | 18:18 |
| bytesaber_work | ActionParsnip, So what do I do? | 18:19 |

| peugi | Hi, I have a question regarding setting up two internet interfaces http://pastebin.com/iaGVA2e9 (my interfaces file) for some reason I get "no route to host" from eth0 which is connected to the internet | 18:19 |
| peugi | I'm sure it's something silly can somebody please take a look? | 18:20 |
| bytesaber_work | ActionParsnip, what is it about grub2 that you understand so much better that I can't figure out? What are some things it's able to do for your multi boots that makes it better for yourself? | 18:20 |
| TrentonAdams | awhile back, I had a problem where my task bar was not looking like the default ubuntu classic look. It looks more like an old windows xp style or something. I think someone helped me resolve it, but I don't remember how | 18:20 |
| cousin_mario | hello | 18:20 |
| TrentonAdams | The applications are using the new style | 18:21 |
| cousin_mario | what is the update-manager applet called? | 18:21 |
| ActionParsnip | peugi: i suggest you comment out one of the gateway lines. | 18:21 |
| peugi | ActionParsnip: that worked :) | 18:22 |
| peugi | thanks so much! | 18:22 |
| Sidewinder1 | TrentonAdams, Did you try booting into Classic? | 18:22 |
| TrentonAdams | Sidewinder1: Yes, I'm in classic | 18:22 |
| Sidewinder1 | !classic | TrentonAdams | 18:22 |
| ubottu | TrentonAdams: The default interface in Ubuntu 11.04 is !Unity. To switch back to regular !GNOME: log out, click your username, click the Session box at the bottom of the screen, and select "Ubuntu Classic". | 18:22 |
| sudokill | whats better, kde or gnome? | 18:23 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber_work: it can automatically add boot options. You can even script logic in to add different boot options based on things like kernel versions or even the partition the thing to boot is on. Stuff like that | 18:23 |
| TrentonAdams | sudokill: that's a loaded question. | 18:23 |
| oCean | sudokill: this is not the channel for polls | 18:23 |
| sudokill | whats better, firefox or chromium? | 18:23 |
| oCean | sudokill: stop it please | 18:23 |
| ActionParsnip | peugi: 2 default anythings makes no sense | 18:24 |
| superawesomeness | sudokill: internet explorer | 18:24 |

| cousin_mario | I don't have the update manager notify me about updates: what should I launch? | 18:25 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber_work: i'd love to see old grub do that without a tonne of human intervention | 18:25 |
| Incarus6 | Netscape is also worth a try, sudokill | 18:25 |
| orchata | Hi guys. My ubuntu is not detecting usb mouse. (Ubuntu 11.04) | 18:25 |

| Praxi | hmm is there a way for me to tell what my nic is plugged into? Running Ubuntu 11 desktop, got it plugged into some cisco ASA, looks like someone configured it before I got to it | 18:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Sudokill: chromium daily build or arora. Anything but firefox | 18:26 |
| bytesaber_work | ActionParsnip yet you are saying you don't know how to tell it to chainload? a super simple task? | 18:26 |
| bytesaber_work | ActionParsnip, i think you like grub2, because it's what ubuntu uses. | 18:26 |
| sudokill | netscape looks good | 18:26 |
| kwvarga | Hey, I am having an issue with my computer crashing about every 2 hours. I have reinstalled video card drivers (nvidia), and have now went back to default drivers (horrible res), but it is still happening | 18:26 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber_work: never had to use it. Sorry | 18:26 |
| kwvarga | Can anyone give me some guidance into what files to look into to figure out what is going on ? | 18:26 |
| sudokill | bytesaber_work, grub2 works for most people. i agree grub 1 is simpler nd cleaner and easier | 18:27 |
| ActionParsnip | bytesaber_work: i started ubuntu in gutsy which used grub1. My first distro was mandrake 7 which also used grub | 18:27 |
| Incarus6 | kwvarga, that highly depends on what you want to debugg | 18:27 |
| TBotNik | rww: You try with changed call to Apache? | 18:28 |
| ActionParsnip | kwvarga: is your RAM healthy? | 18:28 |
| sudokill | kwvarga, could be anything, PSU, heat etc | 18:29 |
| Incarus6 | ZeXx86, is that an IPv6 adress? | 18:29 |
| Incarus6 | kwvarga, you can exclude the graphic card driver by looking into "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" | 18:30 |
| BluesKaj | kwvarga, did you install the recommended driver in sys>admin>additional drivers or is it a proprietary from nvidia's site ? | 18:32 |
| === sweat is now known as Guest38530 | ||
| celthunder | Praxi: uh follow the cord? theres no real way to tell EXACTLY what you're plugged into...theres a few network diagram tools that can come close but an asa is usually fairly transparent if it's setup right | 18:34 |
| kunji | kwvarga: Try running with a live cd for a while, perhaps even live cds for a few different distros, it's not the quickest way to figure things out, but it will certainly let you know if you're dealing with a hardware or firmware/software problem. | 18:34 |
| Praxi | celthunder: thanks celt, just trying to figure out the IP of the device, someone turned off its DHCP server, was thinking of something like ANGRYIP for windows hehe | 18:35 |
| traviscline | anyone successfully use fakeroot and chroot and debootstrap? i'm running into issues | 18:35 |
| celthunder | Praxi: ASA's aren't SUPPOSED to have dhcp :) that's the router's job...ASA's are supposed to be firewalls/VPN devices | 18:36 |
| kunji | kwvarga: also check if your bios can do more monitoring that it is, for instance, I can set temperature warnings for the cpu in mine. | 18:36 |
| Praxi | hmm mine says its dhcp hehe | 18:36 |
| Praxi | well the documentation does | 18:36 |
| celthunder | Praxi: it's capable of it just not it's intended use you can get it's ip from traceroute | 18:37 |
| Praxi | celthunder: if I don't manually set my IP, I don't get one, and ubuntu informs me I'm not connected. | 18:38 |
| Praxi | celthunder: so thinking tracert won't work? | 18:38 |
| cousin_mario | I don't have the update manager notify me about updates: what should I launch? | 18:38 |
| Incarus6 | cousin_mario, running unity? | 18:38 |
| celthunder | well you are capable of manually setting one so once you manually set one within the subnet traceroute will pick up the first router that you're connected to (potentially the ASA ) | 18:38 |
| Praxi | celthunder: oh ya good call, why is it always the basic things that get ya | 18:39 |
| celthunder | Praxi: cause the basic things are what make no sense the complex stuff makes sense more often :) | 18:40 |
| Incarus6 | cousin_mario, when running Unity its a known bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-notifier/+bug/779382 you could try this workaround: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1726472 | 18:41 |

| Praxi | 5505 | 18:41 |
| Praxi | the thing lies to me, its got a faux reset button on it | 18:41 |
| celthunder | same one i have. | 18:41 |

| celthunder | babu_: yes many different ways | 18:42 |
| Incarus6 | Praxi, http://www.mailbeyond.com/restoring-factory-defaults-to-the-cisco-asa5505-firewall-via-the-console | 18:42 |
| babu_ | please tell a stable and easy way.. | 18:42 |
| Praxi | ya looking at that now Incarus6 | 18:43 |
| celthunder | Praxi: you got console access then you can reset everything in 3 commands.... | 18:43 |
| celthunder | and get it's ip without using traceroute | 18:43 |
| Praxi | well not that one exactly, but resetting it using console, of course I don't have a serial port, so now I'm looking how to make my usb port work | 18:43 |
| celthunder | note the defaults aren't exactly sane (what cisco config defaults to sane) | 18:43 |

| Incarus6 | cousin_mario, is http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/update-notifier installed and running properly? | 18:44 |
| babu_ | please explain the approach | 18:44 |
| Sidewinder1 | babu, Or Grsync if you prefer GUI. | 18:44 |

| zacktu | i want to disconnect the usb cable to my android phone - when i "safely remove drive" i get an error message "unable to stop drive" with a followup message that synchronize cache failed -- i can disable usb file copying on the phone -- is that sufficient to prevent any problems? | 18:45 |
| Incarus6 | cousin_mario, you're welcome | 18:45 |
| celthunder | babu_: /etc/init.d/ssh start then make sure in /etc/hosts.allow sshd: ALLOW then scp to it | 18:45 |
| celthunder | from the client machine | 18:45 |
| Praxi | celthunder: shows up ok under ubuntu I guess, lsusb lists "Tripp-Lite U209-000-R Serial Port" | 18:45 |
| celthunder | Praxi: should show up as like s0 or something | 18:45 |
| celthunder | yeah | 18:45 |
| kunji | babu: do you need to run automated backups, or just move things? | 18:46 |
| Telamon | Anyone know how to get the vmware modules to build in the news 2.6.38-10 kernel? It won't accept anything for my kernel include directories. | 18:46 |

| coz_ | zacktu, out of curiosity,, open the home directory,, on the left list,, is the phone indicated wiht a large dark "up" arrow there? | 18:46 |
| celthunder | Praxi: been a while since i reconfigured mine...i do suggest you use your router for dhcp your switch for being a switch and your asa for being a firewall/vpn security device (aka use things for what thety're made for) | 18:47 |

| celthunder | Praxi: the entire point of the asa after all is to take processing off the router...not to take over it | 18:48 |

| celthunder | Pici: probably but were already here and solving it | 18:49 |
| Praxi | pici well, I'm trying to figure out how to terminal under ubuntu so yes and no :) | 18:49 |
| stephenmac7 | Supposedly you just have to put in the .so in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins, is that right? | 18:49 |
| Pici | Praxi: okay | 18:49 |
| celthunder | Praxi: use putty | 18:49 |
| Praxi | will try Incarus6 suggestion, didn't even think about putty on linux lol | 18:49 |
| celthunder | Praxi: it should let you use your serial / whatever else | 18:49 |
| zacktu | coz_: SYSTEM_DRV has a large up arrow, however | 18:50 |
| Incarus6 | Praxi, wine should also work fine ;) | 18:50 |

| abe_lincoln | Is there anything like encfs that's cross-platform? | 18:51 |
| celthunder | Praxi: you should be able to pick your serial/usb device... | 18:51 |
| Incarus6 | celthunder, could be a little bit... out of date. I think they released a new version some days ago | 18:51 |
| kunji | babu_: Do some googling for short descriptions of those tools, if you're on Ubuntu you can get most of them with "sudo apt-get install <tool>" no quotes of course, then make sure to read the manual, "man <tool>" again no quotes. sftp is probably the most straightforward tool for this, "sftp <username>@<ipaddress>" enter your password and off you go, though a little setup needs to be done on the host you're trying to acess first, | 18:52 |
| celthunder | Praxi: unless you have telnet enabled you'll want to pick serial/usb and then enter in the /dev device lower down as the device to use | 18:52 |
| celthunder | Praxi: should work.... | 18:52 |
| stephenmac7 | krux: I'm going to restart the browser... | 18:52 |

| ubottu | In den meisten Ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuche bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Einfach "/join #ubuntu-de" eingeben. Danke für Dein Verständnis! | 18:53 |
| celthunder | Praxi: should show in usb-devices no? | 18:54 |
| * celthunder looks | 18:54 | |
| stephenmac7 | krux: It works, thanks! | 18:54 |
| * stephenmac7 is happy | 18:54 | |
| krux | np. | 18:54 |
| Praxi | I'm pretty new to linux/ubuntu so I don't really know how to tell :) | 18:54 |
| Incarus6 | stepehnmac7, I'm also using the latest flash version ;) it's working much better then the old one | 18:54 |
| Praxi | dmesg and lsusb both show it, and name it, so I think I just need to figure out its 'name' like /dev/ttys0 | 18:55 |
| celthunder | yeah something like that sounds right | 18:55 |
| stephenmac7 | Incarus6: The old one was showing squares everywhere in video (haha, flashplugin-square...) and was tripping up a bunch | 18:55 |

| Incarus6 | stephenmac7, yeah, the gpu acceleration function was very buggy | 18:56 |
| stephenmac7 | But it's all good now :) | 18:56 |
| stephenmac7 | Incarus6: Well, good bye! | 18:57 |
| Praxi | ahh dmesg tells me (PL2303 converter now attached to ttyUSB0) | 18:57 |
| Praxi | thanks for all your help guys | 18:57 |
| celthunder | Praxi: yep so select serial and use /dev/ttyUSB0 and it should show you the console | 18:57 |

| mgl2 | Asking for advice What is the best ubuntu repository | 18:57 |
| celthunder | mgl2: for what | 18:57 |
| vaalir | hello, on xubuntu, i cant seem to rotate my screen? going via settings manager > display, i can only choose normal rotation. im using the recommended propreitary drivers | 18:58 |
| celthunder | ubuntu1680: xrandr | 18:58 |
| celthunder | ubuntu1680: unless you have an nvidia card then use nvidia-settings | 18:58 |
| ubuntu1680 | celthunder: yes i've nvidia geforce 8600GT i open nvidia-settings now where i can change resolution? | 18:58 |
| Sidewinder1 | ubuntu1680, Perhaps the driver you're using can not go to 1680X1050? | 18:59 |
| babu_ | could anyone explain how to create wifi n/w and connect to the pc | 18:59 |
| celthunder | babu_: i think i told you how earlier unless that wasn't what you meant | 18:59 |
| celthunder | babu_: transfer files through it? backup? share internet through the pc? | 19:00 |
| ubuntu1680 | Sidewinder1: how can i check driver version? | 19:00 |
| mgl2 | celthunder: i'm lookin fot aircrack | 19:00 |
| afeijo | anyone using aptana? | 19:00 |
| celthunder | mgl2: should be in the default ones | 19:00 |
| babu_ | transfer files through it | 19:00 |
| Incarus6 | !info aircrack-ng | 19:00 |
| ubottu | aircrack-ng (source: aircrack-ng): wireless WEP/WPA cracking utilities. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:1.1-1.1 (natty), package size 1535 kB, installed size 2744 kB | 19:00 |
| babu_ | celthunder, transfer files through it | 19:01 |
| celthunder | babu_: then start an sshd on one of them? | 19:01 |
| mgl2 | thanks | 19:01 |
| Incarus6 | mgl2, it is now called aicrack-ng | 19:01 |
| celthunder | babu_: could also just use any httpd / ftpd depending on how many you want to transfer and security considerations | 19:01 |
| Dr_Willis | ssh is a wonder tool. :) | 19:01 |
| mgl2 | ok thanks | 19:01 |
| kunji | babu_: So you've got two ubuntu machines there right? | 19:01 |
| Sidewinder1 | ubuntu1680, You might find it under: System-->Administration--> X Server Settings. | 19:02 |
| babu_ | yes | 19:02 |
| babu_ | celthunder, yes | 19:02 |
| nrao | Help, ubuntu not booting up after update | 19:02 |
| ubuntu1680 | Sidewinder1: yes, I'm in but where i have to change resolution? | 19:02 |
| Incarus6 | nrao, have you tried a previous kernel version in grub? | 19:02 |
| nrao | There is nothing - this was fresh installation | 19:03 |
| kunji | babu_: Ok, so run "sudo apt-get install ssh" on both of them. You know the ip addresses for both, right? | 19:03 |
| celthunder | babu_: kunji idk i listed like 3-4 solutions twice..pick one | 19:03 |
| Sidewinder1 | ubuntu1680, Then you could try System-->Preferences-->Monitor. | 19:03 |
| nrao | Installed it dual boot day before yesterday, got update notificaton and updated the system. Asked me to reboot | 19:04 |
| nrao | I just get ubuntu screen with red dots, but nothing happens after that point | 19:04 |
| kunji | celthunder: they're not always the easiest to pick up on your own, especially if you're a newbie, I'll just walk him through a basic sftp setup :) | 19:04 |
| ubuntu1680 | Sidewinder1: is not corret I choose 1680x1050 but has same font size as 1024x768 | 19:04 |
| edbian | nrao: Are you booting a liveCD / liveUSB? | 19:05 |
| nrao | Nope | 19:05 |
| celthunder | kunji: kk have fun i'm off to work anyway | 19:05 |
| kunji | celthunder: kk | 19:05 |
| Sidewinder1 | ubuntu1680, I'm sorry then, that's about as far as I can go to help. :-( Perhaps someone else can "pick up the ball." | 19:05 |
| ubuntu1680 | Sidewinder1: thanks :s | 19:06 |
| nrao | Is there a way to rollback last update? Looks like I can boot in recovery mode | 19:06 |
| Dr_Willis | nrao: try reinstalling the video drivers if any. | 19:07 |
| Sidewinder1 | nrao, Did you "update" or "upgrade"? | 19:07 |
| Incarus6 | ubuntu1680, first of all: which driver and which gaphic card are you suing? | 19:07 |
| Incarus6 | *using | 19:07 |
| babu_ | i created a wireless n/w and then i try to connect from other pc | 19:07 |
| ubuntu1680 | Incarus6: how can i check please? | 19:07 |
| Dr_Willis | babu_: with b | 19:07 |
| babu_ | when i tried it doesn't able to connect | 19:07 |

| Incarus6 | ubuntu1680, can you paste the whole "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" file? | 19:08 |
| Dr_Willis | babu_: no router? just an ad hoc network? | 19:08 |
| kunji | babu_: both machines are on the internet right? Check that they have ip addresses by running ifconfig. | 19:08 |
| ubuntu1680 | Incarus6: sure, here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/644304/ | 19:09 |
| babu_ | kunji, i want to connect thru wifi only | 19:09 |
| Sidewinder1 | nrao, OK, your best bet than is to pay attention to Dr_Willis < He really knows his stuff. :D | 19:09 |

| kunji | babu_: Oh, if you meant just between the two machines without a router, ... then both celthunder and I misunderstood your question. | 19:10 |
| Dr_Willis | but im about to leave for home. ;) may be gone for a bit. | 19:10 |
| babu_ | kunji, i think so | 19:10 |
| kunji | Dr_Willis: Do you know enough about ad hoc networking to get him rolling? | 19:10 |
| Sidewinder1 | g2bl33t, This might help as well: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html | 19:10 |
| g2bl33t | No like I actually want to learn them like DOS commands to make bash commands | 19:11 |
| Dr_Willis | nrao: jockey-gtk or the right apt-get install package. you did try just a 'startx' ? | 19:11 |
| babu_ | the goal is i want to connect two pc with wifi in straight without any router | 19:11 |
| Incarus6 | ubuntu1680, you have to start nvidia-settings and set the screen size there. Dont just click apply, also use the option "save to X Configuration File". I recommend you to use "gksu nvidia-settings". you have to reboot after you did that | 19:11 |
| babu_ | after get connected , i want to transfer files between them | 19:11 |
| Dr_Willis | kunji: set up static ips or install a dhcp server is the main thing i think | 19:11 |
| g2bl33t | Overall I want to learn how to script using bash commands. Is there an ebook for that? | 19:12 |
| kunji | Dr_Willis: thanks, haven't done that before... ah well. | 19:12 |
| Dr_Willis | babu_: install a dhcp server on one. may be needed | 19:12 |
| ubuntu1680 | Incarus6: i have to change resolution in section Display -> panning? and i write 1680x1050 right? | 19:12 |

| Incarus6 | ubuntu1680, have you saved the configuration to that x-file thing and have you rebooted since then? | 19:22 |
| Dr_Willis | babu_: learn to use ssh and scp and sshfs . they make is easy to transfer stuff | 19:22 |

| babu_ | i tried with ssh shankar@10.42.43.10...it says connection refused | 19:25 |
| babu_ | wat's the reason | 19:25 |
| llutz | babu_: sshd not running on remote host | 19:25 |
| Incarus6 | ubuntu1680, fixed? | 19:25 |
| ubuntu1680 | Incarus6: I reboot now I have to use mouse to see the whole desktop resolution | 19:26 |
| babu_ | llutz, how to turn on | 19:26 |
| kunji | babu_: You'll need to restart the networking on the host, I think, so "/etc/init.d/networking restart" | 19:26 |
| ubuntu1680 | Incarus6: font are the same as 1024x768 | 19:26 |
| llutz | babu_: "sudo apt-get install openssh-server" on every host, you want to connect to | 19:27 |
| Incarus6 | ubuntu1680, so the picture is scrolling when you move the mouse the the screencorners? | 19:27 |

| kunji | edbian: oh really? Hmm, I didn't know that. | 19:28 |
| edbian | kunji: yes. | 19:28 |
| Incarus6 | ubuntu1680, are you sure that your screen is supporting that resolution? | 19:28 |
| ubuntu1680 | Incarus6: yes In my win7 i'm using 1680x1050 | 19:28 |
| kunji | edbian: you are quite correct, thanks. So would you just start the ssh daemon? | 19:28 |
| kunji | llutz: Oh man, I forgot that step.... my bad, for some reason I thought it installed that with the ssh package,? | 19:30 |
| edbian | kunji: I wasn't really watching the rest of the problem. | 19:30 |
| edbian | kunji: I think the only way to restart networking now is to restart the machine. | 19:30 |

| ubuntu1680 | Incarus6: may I have post another logs? | 19:33 |
| kunji | babu_: you got that bit llutz said right, about installing openssh-server? | 19:33 |
| Incarus6 | ubuntu1680, I have no Idea if I can help you with that issue, you could try the gtf command, exempli gratia by typing "gtf 1680 1050 60" that will return a possible modeline | 19:34 |

| Incarus6 | ubuntu1680, but Im running out of time, sorry that I couldn't help you. You could ask again in the channel. Panning seems to be the wrong option that is when your virtual screen size is bigger then your physical screen size, so the best way to configure your screen size would be if you edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf manually, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Dynamically_testing_different_resolutions for more information | 19:37 |

| Incarus6 | nrao, start live cd, chroot in old / and try sudo dpkg --configure -a, if that wont work try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure --all" use the last command cautious | 19:44 |
| jrib | xibalba_: not really, try reinstalling grub (see ubottu) | 19:44 |
| nrao | Incarus6: thanks, let me try it | 19:45 |
| Phr3d13 | just old output info | 19:45 |
| StepNjump | kunji, in the interfaces file, I only have the following: auto lo | 19:45 |
| StepNjump | iface lo inet loopback, should I add the wlan0 | 19:45 |
| Incarus6 | nrao, the second command is my favorite command when allmost nothing is working, very powerfull imo | 19:45 |
| xibalba_ | do you think i need to make any modifications because i'm using SATA RAID? | 19:46 |
| kunji | StepNjump: yep, do you know the dhcp config? I can give you mine as an example if you need it. | 19:46 |
| Phr3d13 | jrib, yes, but nothing related to my current issue | 19:47 |
| babu_ | how to transfer the files via wifi... | 19:48 |
| Dr_Willis | babu, scp is one way, sshfs is another way. | 19:48 |
| dli | babu_, I use scp/sshfs | 19:48 |
| kunji | babu_: can you login via ssh at this point? | 19:48 |
| Dr_Willis | babu_, you in here twice? by mistake? | 19:48 |
| babu_ | kunji, yes | 19:48 |
| jrib | Phr3d13: what is this runuotest2.exe? You believe it should not produce the blinking cursor? | 19:48 |
| StepNjump | kunji, no.. I don't know what it is.. I just did a iwconfig right now and see wlan1-wlan0 coming up | 19:48 |
| StepNjump | I could pasteit if you want | 19:48 |
| babu_ | Dr_Willis, now only i am abled to login | 19:48 |
| Dr_Willis | babu_, with sshfs you can 'mount' the remote system to a local directory. then you can copy files over using any tool you want | 19:49 |
| babu_ | kunji, wat's the next step | 19:49 |
| el_bb | why was read access on the ubuntu forums restricted to members? | 19:49 |
| jrib | el_bb: #ubuntuforums | 19:49 |
| babu_ | Dr_Willis, wat are the tools available | 19:50 |
| BluesKaj | StepNjump,try sudo ifconfig wlan0 up , then run dhclient again | 19:50 |
| Dr_Willis | babu_, if you use sshfs.. then any filemanager can access the driectory... | 19:50 |
| kunji | babu_: that what you tried earlier, "ssh shankar@10.42.43.10" | 19:50 |
| Dr_Willis | babu_, it appears as a directory. same as you are allready useing | 19:50 |
| StepNjump | ok blueskaj | 19:50 |
| Phr3d13 | jrib, it is a mono version of a ultima online server, and yes it should do lots of stuff | 19:50 |
| kunji | babu_: assuming shankar is your username and 10.42.43.10 is the ip address of the machine you're trying to login to. | 19:51 |
| StepNjump | ok blueskaj it says in french essentially that there is no peripheral of this type available | 19:51 |
| Aeon | que p2 como instalo gnome? | 19:51 |
| Aeon | xD | 19:51 |
| babu_ | kunji, shankar is the username of remote machine | 19:51 |

| klevison | some one can help me? | 19:52 |
| StepNjump | I think my problem is with the RF-kill | 19:52 |
| kunji | babu_:right, use the login for the remote machine, it should prompt for the password for the remote account as well. | 19:52 |
| BluesKaj | StepNjump, sudo iwlist wlan0 scan|grep -i essid | 19:52 |
| vooze | I have just mounted my /dev/sda4 to /mnt/backup and i can access it just fine with terminal (without sudo) after i sudo'et: sudo chmod -R 777 /mnt/backup.. But with GUI i still cant create folder etc. inside. | 19:53 |

| Dr_Willis | vooze, double check that that chmod command worked on it.. and try chmoding just the mountpoint. | 19:54 |
| Phr3d13 | jrib, if i run the runuo.sh from a launcher on a panel, it works, but trying to run it via nautilus doesn't do anything | 19:54 |
| canu-qumm | hey there | 19:54 |
| Aeon | hahaha | 19:54 |
| sidge | is there a channel dedicated to wine? having odd audio troubles | 19:54 |
| Dr_Willis | vooze, you could of just set the owner to be your user you want to have full access.. your '777' was a little extreme | 19:54 |
| Aeon | D | 19:54 |
| Aeon | gey morenosolis | 19:54 |
| vooze | Dr_Willis, the weird thing is that i can create folder inside terminal with mkdir, but i just cant with gui | 19:54 |
| vooze | Dr_Willis, the folder is green with terminal, so chmod worked | 19:55 |

| Dr_Willis | vooze, except it may have made every file 'executable' even stuff you dont want executble... | 19:56 |
| Incarus6 | pfanne, is that an intel card? | 19:56 |
| Dr_Willis | vooze, a better thing to do wiould be to chown all the files/dirs to be owned by your user. that may help now also. | 19:56 |
| pfanne | yup | 19:56 |
| BluesKaj | StepNjump, ok pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces file | 19:56 |
| albech | if i have a webserver running on a machine with two external NICs, how do i make sure connections are routed back through the interface its established on? | 19:57 |
| vooze | Dr_Willis, what command should i use then? | 19:57 |
| StepNjump | blueskaj ok | 19:57 |
| sidge | its a variation of chopy sound in wine games, but this time my usuall approaches fail me | 19:57 |

| Dr_Willis | canu-qumm, depends opn your needs. use them all... | 19:58 |
| e_t_ | albech: I did something like that once. You have to set up custom routing tables. | 19:58 |
| llutz | canu-qumm: whatever you like | 19:58 |
| Dr_Willis | canu-qumm, i perfer weechat - it has some features i like over irssi | 19:58 |
| canu-qumm | Fine then. | 19:58 |

I've learned that on the particular Dell desktop machine I'm trying to install Ubuntu to, I need to supply boot option mem=xxxxxxxxxx in order for the installation to succeed (it's just a known issue on this particular family of motherboards). How do I get that option in there? I was trying to install from a USB stick. Do I have to modify the live cd image that I have on the stick? ... | 20:00 |
| ejo | ...Is there an easier way to just enter that mem= option at the time of installation? | 20:00 |
| ejo | (replace xxx's with exactly my amount of ram in bytes) | 20:00 |
| Dr_Willis | ejo, usb stick has syslinux configs you could do.. or.. check the following url... | 20:00 |

| Dr_Willis | llutz, i dont use sasl either.. but its some odd bug/network issue with AT*T and irc it seems.. the irs servers are trying to get sasl info from at*t ip. not the ip of the irc client. (or so ive researched). if i disconnect/get a new ip on the phone.. it will work.. | 20:02 |
| Dr_Willis | llutz, but for now im sshing, and/or using ZNC :) | 20:02 |
| carbon357 | if it's with in 99% of the retrieved data then Id think maybe | 20:03 |
| albech | e_t_, im not asking for the exact command, more like the principle | 20:03 |
| albech | e_t_, ;) | 20:03 |
| jay_pro | do you know how to go about doing that, carbon357? i mean, i only know how to extract the SQL file if the server was actually running... but not if it's in pieces | 20:03 |
| Incarus6 | pfanne, you could try to update the driver to a newer version with another ppa. I have to go, bye ;) | 20:04 |
| kunji | babu_: why are you looking for fuse? | 20:04 |
| e_t_ | albech: You provide manual routing rules to the computer, instead of letting it figure things out on its own. | 20:04 |
| _JohnDoe | hello - Does anyone know how to spoof you external ip? | 20:04 |

| carbon357 | Jay_pro : as far as rebuilding the database, no. Sorry. But is you had all the files could you not do that. Just rebuild it ? | 20:05 |
| ejo | woohoo! All I had to do is tell casper, which apparently couldn't figure it out, that this silly Dell XPS 630i has a lot more memory than it thought. And then it works. | 20:05 |
| e_t_ | albech: Yes, and you have to use a unique routing table for each interface. Here is a config I came up with for three interfaces: http://paste.ubuntu.com/644337/ | 20:06 |

| jay_pro | carbon357 oh i dont know... maybe not, because those are commands from an already functional database. curious if i have another computer that has the same software loaded with no data, then piece the files from the recovered data to extract an SQL | 20:13 |

| babu_ | kunji, both are ubuntu machine..i'm surprised why it is not supporting | 20:21 |
| Dr_Willis | babu_, not all wireless chipset drivers in linux support wpa-2 | 20:21 |

| === TheDreamer is now known as Youri | ||
| Dr_Willis | xibalba_, the alt-installer cd is avail at the ubuntu download pages | 20:24 |
| Dr_Willis | !alt | 20:24 |

| xibalba_ | Dr_Willis , it all installs just fine. Its after the install when it boots up it droped into a command line and says "error file not found; grub rescue>" | 20:24 |
| Dr_Willis | xibalba_, could be you need some sort of boot partition on a non-raid device.. that used to be a limit in some cases with grub and raid. | 20:24 |

| StepNjump | blueskaj pretty weird eh? It used to work fine... and I didnt do anything | 20:31 |

| galamar | Hello, I just installed a tv tuner card how do I tell if my comp detects it/ what drivers should I use? | 20:31 |
| SolitonWave | uh | 20:31 |
| SolitonWave | Is the symbol for AND in egrep '&'? | 20:32 |
| StepNjump | blueskaj unless I blew up the card physically! lol | 20:32 |
| mr-rich | kunji: ok ... then then, say, if I plug in a USB device, it should act the same on eather system, correct? | 20:32 |
| BluesKaj | StepNjump, dunno , I'm out of ideas , dhclient one more time ? | 20:32 |
| llutz | SolitonWave: *grep has no AND | 20:32 |
| kunji | galamar: lspci I think will let you see if it's detected. | 20:32 |

| wurmt0ngue | anyone familair with lucid not booting without acpi=off flag? | 20:34 |
| galamar | kunji, ok it does detect it. How would I find a driver? Any way to use the windows driver from the companies website? | 20:34 |
| SolitonWave | llutz: Thanks for the tip | 20:35 |
| BluesKaj | StepNjump, try another ifconfig,,,see if the wlan0 even shows up | 20:35 |
| wurmt0ngue | anyone familiar with lucid not booting without acpi=off flag? only way i can get it to boot at all, and many devices/features dont work without acpi | 20:36 |
| StepNjump | nope, nothing! blueskaj | 20:36 |
| xibalba_ | this is terribad | 20:36 |
| kunji | mr-rich: iphones are tricky business and it will matter what player you are using, version of the iphone, etc... it is quite feasible that Ubuntu and Kubuntu do not operate the same way for that. | 20:36 |
| babu_ | thanks for ur info reg transfer of files within ubuntu | 20:36 |

| babu_ | pls help me | 20:38 |
| eagleserver | whats up babu | 20:39 |
| BluesKaj | StepNjump, no idea, maybe a reboot , but doubt that will help ..we need a networking guru for this prob I think | 20:39 |
| kunji | babu_: you got it working? It might be the same when connecting to windows, it depends if an ssh server is setup on windows or not, and which one. You can probably just connect to windows shares directly using samba, so it should just be similar to how it's done between windows machines. | 20:39 |
| xibalba_ | anyone have a link to tell me wats diff about the alt cd? it's only saying it doesn't run the gui installer | 20:39 |
| xibalba_ | is that the only difference? | 20:39 |
| dli | babu_, just ask? | 20:39 |
| xibalba_ | nevermind got it | 20:39 |
| eagleserver | lol ok | 20:39 |
| StepNjump | blueskaj.... ok well thanks for trying. Might have to reinstall everything. | 20:39 |
| StepNjump | Ill try to reboot | 20:40 |
| eagleserver | linux and reboot usually does nothing lol | 20:40 |
| kunji | StepNjump: what does your interfaces file look like now? | 20:40 |
| kunji | eagleserver: it can help though, and typically more so with wireless issues that anything else. | 20:41 |
| eagleserver | ahh yes | 20:41 |
| StepNjump | let me check kunji | 20:41 |
| Dr_Willis | xibalba_, its a text based installer that has some extra options for raid and other uncommon systems | 20:41 |

| jiffe | how can I tell what configure options were used to build the apache package? | 20:47 |
| eagleserver | yah, i did the kernel upgrade last night, and its hangning on checking battery status. from what ive read its a nvidia driver problem | 20:47 |
| edbian | galamar: one fool proof but clumsy way is to look at the files in synaptic for that package. Any files listed in /usr/bin or /usr/sbin are executable and probably are 'main' or whatever. | 20:47 |
| StepNjump | kunji, yes this is my pastebin | 20:47 |

| StepNjump | edbian yes! | 20:52 |
| StepNjump | it was working fine today just before I did a ifconfig wlan0 down edbian | 20:52 |
| StepNjump | Now it cant find the peripheral when doing a iwconfig | 20:53 |

| kunji | edbian: that's the first thing I suggested, doesn't seem to be working for him. | 20:54 |

| edbian | guntbert: Ahh, thanks | 21:02 |
| andrewh192 | edbian: not sure, how do i find out? | 21:02 |
| guntbert | !latest | buckiller | 21:02 |
| ubottu | buckiller: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea.

| andrewh192 | edbian: i mean i have 64 bit hardware | 21:03 |
| zykotick9 | Northernen, jockey - but "ps aux | grep jockey" to find correct process name. FYI killing it will probably leave a lock file! | 21:03 |
| edbian | andrewh192: free -g | 21:03 |
| andrewh192 | edbian: but how do i find out about how much ram i have in ubuntu? | 21:03 |
| BluesKaj | Northernen, jockey | 21:03 |
| edbian | andrewh192: or free -m to see it in megabytes | 21:03 |
| Northernen | zykotick9, ah, that's right. How do I remove the locks then? | 21:04 |

| Northernen | zykotick9, so I run 'sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a'? | 21:07 |
| BluesKaj | zykotick9, Northernen the factoid !aptlock works as well | 21:07 |
| Northernen | !aptlock | 21:07 |
| ubottu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 21:07 |
| edbian | andrewh192: That's only ~2.7 Gb of ram so 64bit is not really worth a re-install | 21:07 |
| zykotick9 | andrewh192, with less then 4GB RAM 64bit might not be worth the effort | 21:08 |
| Northernen | BluesKaj, will that kill the process as well, or just remove the lock? | 21:08 |

| Sidewinder1 | babu, As you're probably already aware, wireless will almost always be slower than wired. | 21:18 |
| ActionParsnip | cody1233: what is the output of: sudo lshw -C network; lsb_release -a; rfkill list | 21:18 |
| kunji | babu_: Not that I know of with sftp, you could try rsync without going over ssh, but then the transfer won't be encrypted. The encryption could be the speed bottleneck if you have slow processors, or it could be the wireless cards that are the bottleneck. So I'm not sure. | 21:18 |
| ActionParsnip | cody1233: use a pastebin to host the output | 21:18 |

| Danny__ | For anyone who saw my question about Upgrade to 9.10 from 9.04 on a Dell netbook locking up - turns out it was simply that I couldn't see the bottom of the terminal due to the small resolution. A bit humbling, as usual. | 21:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Ramosa, / is ' | 21:27 |
| edbian | cody1233: found a lead :) | 21:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Ramosa, / is 'root' | 21:27 |
| edbian | cody1233: still there? | 21:27 |
| cody1233 | yep | 21:27 |
| Ramosa | ah | 21:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Ramosa, not to be confused with /root (the root users home directory) | 21:27 |
| StepNjump | edbian, I'm sorry for the delay... I will have to come back later. I received a legal call. need to deal with this crap. I hope you will stay a little while | 21:27 |

| edbian | StepNjump: Restart the machine!!! | 21:28 |
| Ramosa | Dr_Willis, gonna dual boot with win 7, which will be main OS... so music, movies and such will be on ntfs.. is a linux formated home dir then nescessary? | 21:28 |
| StepNjump | edbian, I did | 21:28 |
| jipsy | Yipp that's it.. I just need a link where it can guide me in creating a photo gallery online.. | 21:28 |
| edbian | StepNjump: oohh | 21:28 |
| edbian | :P | 21:28 |
| cody1233 | edbian: would i just see it? | 21:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Ramosa, you have a 'home' no matter what. :) you may not need to make it on its own partition iof you dont want to.. | 21:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Ramosa, you cant keep your 'home' on a ntfs. | 21:28 |
| StepNjump | I'll be back soon, unless it will only take 5 minutes | 21:28 |
| BluesKaj | BBL ...errands to do | 21:29 |
| StepNjump | I'be been workin on this problem over 3 hours so far! | 21:29 |
| edbian | cody1233: See it under the wifi device in the output of sudo lspci -k It's either the driver or listed as a module (or not there at all) | 21:29 |
| babu_ | how to update open office | 21:29 |
| Ramosa | Dr_Willis, right.. but if i want to keep my big files elsewhere, is there a minimum requirement for a home partition? | 21:29 |
| edbian | cody1233: Am I making sense? | 21:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Ramosa, but you could make a link from /home/yourusername/WindowsDrive to point to the ntfs. | 21:29 |
| cody1233 | yeah... | 21:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Ramosa, you can make your home partition as big or little as you need. | 21:29 |
| Ramosa | Dr_Willis, but I should partition some space for it? | 21:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Ramosa, but if most all your stuff is on the ntfs.. why bother with a home partition | 21:29 |
| cody1233 | the only one that is there is iwlagn | 21:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Ramosa, if you want.. but it depends on how you are using the system | 21:30 |
| StepNjump | edbian, just food for thought for you whilst I finish my call... lol... sudo ifconfig wlan0 up. SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not possible due to RF-kill | 21:30 |

| StepNjump | ooops | 21:31 |
| cody1233 | it is | 21:31 |
| edbian | cody1233: as a driver or module? | 21:31 |
| cody1233 | both | 21:31 |
| edbian | cody1233: Usually one needs a driver and firmware | 21:31 |
| StepNjump | edbianm, it's a software RF kill, not physical switch | 21:31 |
| edbian | cody1233: sudo iwlist scan what does that do? | 21:31 |
| edbian | StepNjump: oh yeah? | 21:31 |
| canu-qumm | hai guize | 21:31 |
| StepNjump | I'm on an Acer notebook | 21:31 |

| StepNjump | I was hopeful edbian: echo: Bogus unblock argument 'wlan0' | 21:33 |
| edbian | StepNjump: What is your wifi card called in rfkill list ? | 21:34 |
| chriswr | is ubuntu software center and symantic package manager do the same thing? | 21:34 |
| edbian | chriswr: essentially yes | 21:34 |
| cody1233 | it shows the hard address mtu and metric, but everything else is a 0 | 21:34 |

| edbian | cody1233: Did it say anything about being blocked by rfkill ? | 21:35 |
| chriswr | edbian, alright cause for some reason even if im not installing any new packages the software center slows down my computer unbearably | 21:35 |
| edbian | chriswr: You mean if you just have it open? | 21:35 |
| StepNjump | edbian: Bogus unblock argument 'phy0'. | 21:36 |
| chriswr | edbian, yep | 21:36 |
| cody1233 | no...is the "up" part of the command | 21:36 |

| chriswr | edbian, btw do you know if symantic has all the packages as software center? | 21:38 |
| edbian | chriswr: It does, but synaptic shows you every package. software center shows you groups of packages together as one application. | 21:39 |
| cody1233 | edbian: soft blocked: no hard blocked: yes | 21:39 |
| yhager | How can I find if someone already built a package for natty for boost-log.sf.net? There is none in the official repo | 21:39 |

| Sidewinder1 | Algorith, Say it ain't so! I love Synaptic. What it's replacement? Software bloody Center? | 21:41 |
| edbian | StepNjump: it's rfkill unblock 0 | 21:41 |
| StepNjump | rfkill unblock 0 though echoed a blank line | 21:41 |
| edbian | Sidewinder1: It's true | 21:41 |
| edbian | StepNjump: Then it worked | 21:41 |
| StepNjump | edbian, yes I tried that. Still nothing | 21:42 |
| edbian | cody1233: The switch is set to off on your wifi | 21:42 |
| StepNjump | Let me try the up procedure again | 21:42 |
| edbian | StepNjump: Does rfkill still say that things are blocked? | 21:42 |
| cody1233 | edbian: haha...i'm an idiot... :) | 21:42 |
| edbian | cody1233: That wifi switch is the bane of my existence | 21:43 |

| Sidewinder1 | edbian, Synaptic--->Software Center... | 21:48 |
| Pin | ActionParsnip ok next time it comes up i'll copy paste it here | 21:48 |
| Pin | thanks | 21:48 |
| cody1233 | ActionParsnip: does that work on all OSes? | 21:48 |
| cody1233 | ActionParsnip: as a client | 21:49 |
| edbian | Sidewinder1: Ha, agreed. But you can still install synaptic so whatever | 21:49 |
| zykotick9 | cody1233, both MS an MAC would probably need some for of client, the default OS wont support sftp/ssh most likely (Mac maybe?) | 21:50 |
| Sidewinder1 | edbian, Then that'll work for me... :D | 21:50 |

| James3 | the resolution is so low i can only see 1/8 of my screen | 21:57 |

| andrewx | those mount points end up relating to *removed* discs! how can I clear them! | 22:00 |

| === derp is now known as derp|gone | ||
| e_t_ | andrewx: What do you mean by "remembers" ? | 22:01 |
| eagleserver | are you unmounting it or going to safely remove? | 22:01 |
| psusi | andrewx, when you choose to eject the disc in my computer, it should go away... or did you manually create it? | 22:01 |
| andrewx | right-click, release | 22:01 |
| andrewx | "mount point" created by merely inserting dvd | 22:02 |

| andrewx | empty drive entirely, folders remain | 22:03 |
| eagleserver | well... you could remove the folders.. but its sposed to unmount them itself. | 22:03 |
| psusi | andrewx, that's.. weird... you remove a folder with rmdir | 22:03 |
| andrewx | there should be a way to just clear /media | 22:03 |

| cody1233 | zykotick9:thank you, but i'm going on a secure lan connection...thanks for the warning, though...i didn't know that | 22:03 |

| andrewx | lol | 22:03 |
| eagleserver | but thats not the fix of course. | 22:03 |
| andrewx | does one have to be root 1st? | 22:03 |
| psusi | do NOT do that, as that will erase every file on every disc you have mounted | 22:04 |
| eagleserver | depends on who mounted the drive | 22:04 |
| psusi | just use rmdir to remove the empty directory... if it isn't empty, then eject the disc | 22:04 |
| andrewx | Grrr | 22:04 |
| eagleserver | psusi, /media/* | 22:04 |
| andrewx | add a Clear/Reset /media option please :-) | 22:04 |
| eagleserver | thats not the whole drive. | 22:04 |

| Starman83 | Is here anybody with dbus / udisks experience? | 22:07 |
| Starman83 | I got this problem: http://pastebin.com/XPBQnBYS | 22:08 |
| Starman83 | Usb devices won't get mounted during lxde sessions | 22:08 |
| dli | Starman83, is your dbus daemon up? | 22:09 |
| luigi187 | listen | 22:09 |
| luigi187 | !listen | 22:10 |
| ubottu | Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Listen, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, Exaile, XMMS2 (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based). Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine - See also !codecs | 22:10 |

| koppe | Is it possible to "mount" a directory -- ie. not the partition's root-directory, but one of the partition's sub-directory? The partition itself may be mounted some other place, but you "mount" one of it's dir. Something like mounting an iso-image with loop... | 22:11 |
| luigi187 | listen | 22:11 |
| luigi187 | ciao | 22:11 |
| psusi | koppe, you can bind mount a directory to another location | 22:11 |
| Starman83 | dli: No I tried to start it but I get an error message | 22:12 |
| chriswr | luigi187, whats the lightest media player out of those that play movies and music? | 22:12 |
| Starman83 | http://pastebin.com/iJBM2YAQ | 22:12 |
| iceroot | chriswr: i guess mplayer for the shell | 22:12 |
| Starman83 | This is what dbus puts out | 22:12 |

| sarkis | is there any way to restart notify-osd or is there some error-log? i found ~/.cache/notify-osd.log i am trying to send messages via notify-send, they get in the log file however no notification :( | 22:12 |
| zykotick9 | chriswr, mplayer cli version FTW ;) | 22:12 |
| [1]SigmaProjects | Can anyone point me to a guide to setup bridging without using /etc/network/interfaces ? Its a headless machine and I don't want it to be permanent in case I do it wrong | 22:12 |
| sarkis | ive tried killall notify-osd | 22:12 |
| chriswr | alright thnx , banshee is retarded slow on my pc | 22:13 |
| sarkis | nothing works in bringing back notify-osd except for a restart of X, not sure what this all means :? | 22:13 |
| zykotick9 | chriswr, you probably don't want mplayer for music, a dedicated player would be better | 22:13 |
| iceroot | chriswr: but i dont think you want mplayer for the shell, so have a look at the alternatives ubottu mentioned | 22:13 |
| koppe | tnx | 22:14 |
| iceroot | Starman83: is this alwaysthe case? or only during this session? | 22:15 |
| iceroot | Starman83: normally you can only restart dbus correctly with a reboot | 22:15 |
| zykotick9 | chriswr, mplayer without any gui is extremely good at playing video files. It's keys during operation are pretty powerful and almost intuitive - i've setup mplayer to play my video files for years, it plays everything. mplayer/mencoder really is the swiss-army knife of video on gnu/linux systems. | 22:16 |
| chriswr | zykotick9, does the mplayer gui have a library that i can import my music and video files to? | 22:18 |
| Starman83 | iceroot: Thanks, I'll try a reboot | 22:18 |
| graalgonstruckt | Would anyone be able to guide me through how to install the following program: http://londeroth.org/~fry/gonstruct/ (Gonstruct for Graal Online) They try to explain it here: https://github.com/fry/graal-gonstruct/blob/0.2.3/README | But I cant seem to make it work, or it isn't well explained enough for me. I also cant find all the programs listed. | 22:18 |
| Starman83 | I'll look into this another time, since this machine is also my router and I can't do a reboot today | 22:19 |
| Starman83 | thanks guys, bye | 22:19 |
| zykotick9 | chriswr, ya, but for music it's really not ideal. there are several GUI frontends to choose from, don't be afraid to try more then one. | 22:19 |

| onca | hai, I have a odd perdicament, my logitech M505 wireless mouse allowed me to incorporate the K705 keyboard connection to the one wireless dongle, so I could use just one for both in windows, but now it won't work in linux. | 22:20 |
| onca | I can't reverse it | 22:20 |
| onca | anyone know how to troubleshoot this kind of thing? | 22:20 |
| billy2007 | help i ran sudo unity reboot now all my toolbars and everything are gone | 22:20 |
| billy2007 | ive just got full screen irc | 22:21 |
| rww | billy2007: why did you run that? | 22:21 |
| cg2916 | When I boot from my Live USB, it says it can't find a medium with a live file system | 22:21 |
| onca | it's called a unifying reciever. | 22:21 |
| billy2007 | i thought it was the command for a quick system reboot | 22:21 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: What have you done so far? | 22:21 |
| sarkis | ok i think i found something, seems the screensaver or locking the screen is preventing any notify-osd notifications to pop up until i do an x restart | 22:21 |
| sarkis | WTF | 22:21 |
| billy2007 | i obviously dont remember it | 22:22 |
| rww | billy2007: It isn't. Running random commands that you make up, especially with sudo, is a bad idea. You probably just broke the permissions on your compiz configuration. Restart and hope you got lucky. | 22:22 |
| xaqrox | I just booted Ubuntu 11.04 64bit Desktop edition from USB on a brand new Lenovo ThinkPad E420, and I can't connect to the wireless network which I was connected to moments ago when I was running windows on the same machine | 22:22 |
| graalgonstruckt | astraljava, I have installed some of what it told me to install, downloaded the folder it asked me to download. But can figure out how to do the terminal / cmake stuff | 22:23 |
| xaqrox | lshw and lspci both see my wireless device, though lshw says *-network DISABLED | 22:23 |
| intlkleinblue | hello, how do I map CAPSLOCK key to ubuntu? | 22:23 |
| intlkleinblue | erm, make that map it to ESC | 22:23 |
| ActionParsnip | xaqrox: do you have a switch to turn wifi off and on | 22:23 |
| xaqrox | there is a button that has a radio tower icon | 22:24 |
| dli | intlkleinblue, xmodmap | 22:24 |
| xaqrox | i don't think i pressed it but it's possible | 22:24 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: You have to have 'cmake' installed, then open the terminal, go to the root folder of the source package, and issue `cmake .` in there. | 22:24 |
| ActionParsnip | xaqrox: check | 22:24 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: What part do you have trouble with? | 22:24 |
| graalgonstruckt | astraljava, I have cmake installed. I cant find boost, gtkglarea 2.01 or libgtkgl. gtkmm and I think I Have ruby (if its ruby browser). | 22:25 |
| xaqrox | ok, it turned bluetooth on | 22:25 |
| sarkis | hey guys anyone know what i can look at to see if notify-osd is erroring out? | 22:25 |
| xaqrox | but i still can't get the menu to say "wireless enabled" | 22:25 |
| graalgonstruckt | astraljava, sorry I dont know how to reply correctly to you x-x. I have trouble with the cmake part executing it, it fulfill the task. | 22:26 |
| xaqrox | though the check mark is there next to the menu icon, which I did myself with the mouse, not the wifi button | 22:26 |
| cg2916 | When I boot from my Live USB, it says it can't find a medium with a live file system | 22:26 |
| sarkis | or if notify-osd has been disabled? | 22:26 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: When you're compiling from source, it helps to do `apt-cache search <library_name> dev`, as most of the headers usually reside in -dev ending packages. | 22:26 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: Yeah, cmake will most likely complain if you don't have the necessary headers installed. | 22:27 |
| graalgonstruckt | astraljava, I got it to say installing cmake or whatever. but I go to do the line about src/ whatever, it says anonymous@anonymous-user:~$ src/level_editor/gonstruct | 22:28 |
| graalgonstruckt | bash: src/level_editor/gonstruct: No such file or directory | 22:28 |
| graalgonstruckt | anonymous@anonymous-user:~$ | 22:28 |
| billy2007 | i was getting a little worried for a moment there | 22:28 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: One moment, I'm cloning the repository myself. | 22:30 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: There's an autogen.sh file there, did you run it first? | 22:30 |
| StepNjump | Anyone here that is REALLy good in networking? sudo ifconfig wlan0 up. SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not possible due to RF-kill | 22:30 |
| Wulf | StepNjump: do you have a switch on your laptop which disables wireless? | 22:31 |
| Wulf | StrangerCharm: it's often at the front of your laptop | 22:31 |
| Wulf | StepNjump: ^ | 22:31 |
| StepNjump | sorry wulf, I needed to exit and come back in | 22:32 |
| graalgonstruckt | astraljava, No i did not. :( | 22:32 |
| StepNjump | did you write something wulf? | 22:32 |
| Wulf | StepNjump: do you have a switch on your laptop which disables wireless? | 22:32 |
| ActionParsnip | StepNjump: is there a hardware switch or shortcut combo to enable / disable the wifi? | 22:32 |
| Wulf | StepNjump: it's often at the front of your laptop | 22:32 |
| StepNjump | Yes but it's a combination of keyboard strokes Fn F3 | 22:32 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: Ok, you should start with running `./autogen.sh` in the source directory. Please pastebin the output. | 22:32 |
| ActionParsnip | StepNjump: also, if you dual boot with Windows, ensure the device is set to not be able to wake the system up in device manager | 22:32 |
| StepNjump | Hi ActionParsnip.. no not hardware | 22:32 |
| Wulf | StepNjump: did it ever work? | 22:33 |
| ActionParsnip | StepNjump: that's fine, press it | 22:33 |
| ActionParsnip | xaqrox: try: sudo rfkill unblock all | 22:33 |
| StepNjump | Yep, just today... Before I did a wlan0 down because I wanted just to use eth0 | 22:33 |
| StepNjump | ActionParsnip, no nothing works | 22:33 |
| StepNjump | I even tried the rfkill list that edbian told me to do earlier | 22:34 |
| Wulf | StepNjump: tried a reboot? | 22:34 |
| eagleserver | yes he has | 22:34 |
| eagleserver | lol | 22:34 |
| StepNjump | ActionParsnip you really want me to go in the BIOS? | 22:34 |
| intlkleinblue | dli: thx, works great | 22:34 |
| eagleserver | 3 - 4 times | 22:34 |
| StepNjump | Wulf, yes rebooted numerous times | 22:34 |
| xaqrox | ActionParsnip did that, no change | 22:34 |
| StepNjump | I boot up with Grub | 22:34 |
| xaqrox | no wait | 22:35 |
| byroncoughlin | How can I determine which services init is going to start? | 22:35 |
| xaqrox | ifconfig says wlan0 is UP | 22:35 |
| xaqrox | but the panel says wireless is still disabled | 22:36 |
| ActionParsnip | xaqrox: ok try: sudo iwlist scan do you see wireess networks? | 22:36 |
| cg2916 | When I boot from my Live USB, it says it can't find a medium with a live file system | 22:36 |
| eagleserver | does ure mb support usb bootable? | 22:36 |
| byroncoughlin | cg2916 Where are you at on this? | 22:37 |
| billy2007 | cg2916, are you sure its a complete iso | 22:37 |
| StepNjump | wulf and actionparsnip: when I do a ifconfig I don't see my wlan0 but when I do a ifconfig -a I do | 22:37 |
| xaqrox | did that, don't know what I'm looking at | 22:37 |
| xaqrox | many "Cell"s | 22:37 |
| xaqrox | oh they are all networks | 22:37 |
| xaqrox | duh | 22:37 |
| cg2916 | billy2007, yes it's complete | 22:37 |
| xaqrox | yes i see wireless networks | 22:37 |
| cg2916 | byroncoughlin, I am on WIndows 7 if that's what you mean | 22:38 |
| xaqrox | i have also grep-ed for the name of the network i want to join and it's there | 22:38 |
| xibalba_ | so the ich10r is fake raid, i think i'm going to break down and finally do software raid | 22:38 |
| xibalba_ | i've been trying to get this ich10r working all day | 22:38 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: Looks like it doesn't need it, sorry I'm not too familiar with cmake. | 22:38 |
| graalgonstruckt | astraljava, says I need to download autoconf-2.53, I downloaded it, extracted it to my home folder. Now what? | 22:38 |
| billy2007 | have you got the iso in a folder or is it directly on the usb | 22:39 |
| byroncoughlin | cg2916 I mean I saw you working on this earlier. Have you got any closer. What have you tried? | 22:39 |
| cg2916 | byroncoughlin, i've remade it with both unetbootin and universal usb installer, it didn't work | 22:39 |
| eagleserver | cg2916, does your motherboard support boot from usb.? mine has removable device which doesnt work | 22:39 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: You need to learn to use the package manager. :) Please do `sudo apt-get install autoconf` instead. :) | 22:39 |
| alexm | Can someone help me install my DVD-RAM drive? I can't figure it out because all of the tutorials are for CD-ROM drives | 22:39 |
| ActionParsnip | xaqrox: ok run: sudo iwlist scan | head -n 20 | 22:39 |
| cg2916 | eagleserver, it does | 22:40 |
| eagleserver | ok | 22:40 |
| ActionParsnip | xaqrox: what is the wireless interface called, examples are wlan0 eth1 ar0 | 22:40 |
| xaqrox | wlan0 | 22:40 |
| ActionParsnip | alexm: if its a physical install it's no different | 22:40 |
| ActionParsnip | xaqrox: ok that's cool, if you use the network manager, is wireless enabled there? | 22:41 |
| alexm | I have it connected and it works fine on my windows partition, but Ubuntu refuses to recognize it | 22:41 |
| byroncoughlin | cg2916 What error do you get when starting? | 22:41 |
| ActionParsnip | alexm: if you run : sudo lshw -C drive; sudo lshw -C disk do you see the device? | 22:41 |
| cg2916 | byroncoughlin, it says "Cannot find a medium with a live file system" then it switches to BusyBox. BTW, I've tried this on my other laptop, it works. | 22:41 |
| xaqrox | under the "Network Connections" thing, no | 22:41 |

| xaqrox | is that what you mean? | 22:42 |
| grid_ | because i can watch jun too, but how i see just all? | 22:42 |
| ActionParsnip | xaqrox: right click the icon, is it enabled there? | 22:42 |
| byroncoughlin | cg2916 The same usb stick iso works on another laptop? | 22:42 |
| xaqrox | no | 22:42 |
| eagleserver | grid_, are you tailing the file atm? | 22:42 |
| cg2916 | byroncoughlin correct | 22:42 |
| alexm | That got my HDD, would I replace the drive name with D to find the DVD drive? | 22:42 |
| kingofswords | my flash player keeps crashing...its 64bit | 22:43 |
| grid_ | eagleserver: no, i'm not, i use virtualmin at the webinterface | 22:43 |
| eagleserver | ok | 22:43 |
| eagleserver | ya could get the file and browse it from ure pc? | 22:43 |
| ActionParsnip | alexm: drive letters mean nothing in Linux. They are a windows construct | 22:44 |

| === leeech_ is now known as leechmob | ||
| graalgonstruckt | astraljava, after I installed all that stuff, what do I do? | 22:44 |
| ActionParsnip | alexm: the disk and drive should show the drives available. Did you set the drive to slave / master, Linux doesn't like cable select | 22:44 |
| astraljava | alexm: It's a busy channel, after all. :) | 22:45 |
| alexm | astraljava: Sorry | 22:45 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: Follow the instructions, so `cmake .`, and if you run into trouble, pastebin and post the link here. | 22:45 |
| gmachine_24 | I am running an older laptop on Ubuntu 9.04. I somehow moved the entire "Desktop" folder and its contents to /usr/local/ | 22:45 |
| astraljava | alexm: No need to be sorry, it was just a (hopefully) helpful hint. :) | 22:45 |
| alexm | ActionParsnip: I don't think so. I'm a bit of a noob so unless I did that on accident | 22:45 |
| gmachine_24 | I have a desktop - but there are not folders, files, etc. They were all moved. | 22:46 |
| ActionParsnip | alexm: I'd check | 22:46 |
| gmachine_24 | should I just move all the contents of the /usr/local/Desktop file back to /home/username/Desktop? | 22:46 |
| astraljava | gmachine_24: Wouldn't hurt. Might have to tweak the owner/permissions afterwards, but try it firts. | 22:47 |
| astraljava | first* | 22:47 |
| godofmischief | i get image flicker on my second monitor while resizing an image on my left monitor | 22:47 |
| cg2916 | byroncoughlin, are you there? | 22:47 |
| godofmischief | is this normal? | 22:47 |
| astraljava | godofmischief: No idea. Might depend on the graphics drivers, for instance. | 22:48 |
| byroncoughlin | cg2916 I believe this error means that you are getting to the kernel but there is a problem with the kernel going forward. What iso are you using? | 22:48 |
| godofmischief | i have an m15x, and i am using nvidia drivers. | 22:48 |
| godofmischief | kinda annoying. | 22:48 |
| cg2916 | byroncoughlin lubuntu-11.04.iso | 22:48 |
| gmachine_24 | Amazing what one misplace, or missing, "/" will get you | 22:49 |
| astraljava | godofmischief: Using the proprietary drivers? No support for them here, so try their website or something. | 22:49 |
| byroncoughlin | cg2916 Have you tried any other iso? | 22:49 |
| graalgonstruckt | it says im missing gtksourceview-2.0 but when I try to sudo apt-get install gtksourceview-2.0 it says cannot find. | 22:49 |
| astraljava | gmachine_24: CLI is pretty particular. :) | 22:49 |
| cg2916 | byroncoughlin, what others are there? | 22:49 |
| billy2007 | does anyone know if i can download google chrome os iso yet | 22:50 |
| godofmischief | asshole, I wasn't asking for driver support. I was asking if it was normal or if others found this issue trying to see what to do from there. | 22:50 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: You want to do `sudo apt-get install libgtksourceview2.0-dev` | 22:50 |
| byroncoughlin | cg2916 maybe 10.10? | 22:50 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: Useful to do the library name and dev with that, ie. `apt-cache search <library> dev` | 22:51 |
| gmachine_24 | astraljava: yeah. | 22:51 |
| cg2916 | byroncoughlin, ok i'll try, also check private message | 22:51 |
| kroq-gar78 | billy2007: you can compile it yourself for sure, but you can check if you can download at www.chromium.org/chromium-os | 22:51 |

| Huene` | sorry to bother you folks, but I'm having a little issue, after a recent upgrade of the kernel amongst other things, I am unable to get past the boot splash screen, I'm 90% sure this is video card related as I've seen it mentioned before but I can't seem to pull up the grub2 menu with escape, so my question to you folks is how do I go about removing nvidia drivers on the installation, when I'm booted to the live CD | 22:52 |
| kroq-gar78 | billy2007: you just might have to install guest additions... | 22:52 |
| IdleOne | Huene`: Shift key | 22:52 |
| billy2007 | kroq-gar78, ive already got them | 22:52 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: `apt-cache search gtkgl dev` gives me libgtkgl2.0-dev as the most probably candidate. | 22:53 |
| IdleOne | Huene`: in grub2 use the shift key, sorry for not being clear before | 22:53 |
| Huene` | IdleOne: I assume you're referring to holding shift as I'm entering the bootloader? | 22:53 |
| IdleOne | Huene`: correct | 22:53 |
| kroq-gar78 | billy2007: but oyou have to install guest additions on the VBOX GUEST (in this case, the chrome os) | 22:53 |
| Huene` | I see thank you, and if that does not work will simply mounting the drive and changing xorg.conf disable the driver? | 22:53 |
| IdleOne | Huene`: sounds right. | 22:54 |
| billy2007 | kroq-gar78, i dont understand lol ill come to that problem when its downloaded its says 3hours :( i hate wifi | 22:54 |
| Huene` | alright thank you, I'll give shift a shot, just to verify it's hold it while leaving post and entering grub2? just want to be sure | 22:54 |
| Huene` | it = shift | 22:54 |
| IdleOne | Huene`: correct | 22:55 |
| Huene` | thank you friend, have a good day | 22:55 |
| IdleOne | welcome. you too | 22:55 |
| graalgonstruckt | astraljava, http://pastebin.com/kfMen03z Thats what I get after I do all the correct commands | 22:55 |
| astraljava | Huene`: Might wanna just `mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup` or something, so that the system will auto-detect the best possible driver and settings, but you will still have the previous settings available as a backup. | 22:55 |
| kroq-gar78 | billy2007: ok lemme help u understand during the download :P when you install chromeos in vbox, press "Right Control + D" (it's a key combo - do it at the same time), and just do whatever chromeos says :) | 22:56 |
| kroq-gar78 | billy2007: sorry im not too good at underszxtanding :( | 22:56 |
| billy2007 | kroq-gar78, is it thats simple | 22:56 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: Yeah you need to `sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev`, but after that, do `cmake .` instead of `./autogen.sh`, it initiates the correct commands too. | 22:57 |
| kroq-gar78 | billy2007: should be :) | 22:57 |
| Escherial | hey, is there any way to integrate the system calendar and mail icon with thunderbird, like how it already is with evolution? | 22:57 |
| kroq-gar78 | billy2007: but I;ve never used chrome os, so I'll have to check. also, where did u get the iso? | 22:57 |
| billy2007 | if i set my laptop to blank screen for when i shut it will it carry on downloading? | 22:57 |

| BDR_ | Yep. | 23:00 |
| BDR_ | Same thing. | 23:00 |
| eagleserver | BDR_, sounds like a grub problem | 23:00 |
| eagleserver | can u get into single mode? | 23:01 |
| billy2007 | and ive set it to spin down hard disks when possible | 23:01 |
| BDR_ | I can't do anything with my keyboard or mouse. | 23:01 |
| kroq-gar78 | billy2007: k just a statement ;) it happens to my laptops so just saying ;) | 23:01 |
| BDR_ | But in terms of use length I'm a total newb at this so I can't be sure that matters. | 23:02 |
| BDR_ | Tell me how and I'll try it | 23:02 |
| kroq-gar78 | BDR_ here's a dumb suggestion: are they plugged in? | 23:02 |
| kroq-gar78 | BDR_ right after bootup (about 0.5-1 seconds), hold down the SHIFT key | 23:02 |
| Escherial | is there supposed to be a blank space between the menu items and ubuntu icon on the desktop in unity? | 23:03 |
| kroq-gar78 | BDR_: hold down shift right after the BIOS message is gone | 23:03 |
| Escherial | i guess it makes sense, since there are no close-miminize-maximize buttons for the desktop, but it looks weird | 23:03 |
| BDR_ | everything is definitely plugged in | 23:03 |
| kroq-gar78 | lol just checking :P | 23:03 |
| BDR_ | haha | 23:03 |
| BDR_ | 18:03] <kroq-gar78> BDR_: hold down shift right after the BIOS message is gone - will do | 23:04 |
| graalgonstruckt | astraljava, thank you so much for your help. | 23:05 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: Did it work? | 23:05 |
| byroncoughlin | BDR are they usb keyboard and mouse? | 23:05 |
| graalgonstruckt | astraljava, yes it did ;D | 23:05 |
| BDR_ | I held left shift down after bios message went away and only got GRUB loader. | 23:05 |
| BDR_ | They are not usb. | 23:06 |
| astraljava | graalgonstruckt: Excellent. :) | 23:06 |
| kroq-gar78 | BDR_ k then select "recovery mode", but don't go yet. I'm no X-server expert (which I think is what this is), so we need somebody else's help here... | 23:06 |
| kroq-gar78 | BDR_ go into the "recovery mode" and try updating your packages using "dpkg" when the menu comes up | 23:07 |
| gmachine_24 | Ok, after finagling I got all the files moved back to the desktop. All I can say is: Watch those "/"s....... oh and btw has Rupert Murdoch hacked your phone today? Thanks for the help. :) | 23:07 |
| BDR_ | What do I do if no menu comes up? | 23:08 |
| BDR_ | (will try all the same, just want to know what's what) | 23:08 |
| kroq-gar78 | BDR_ that means you didn't press SHIFT early enough maybe... do it immediately after the BIOS is gone... | 23:09 |
| kroq-gar78 | BDR: otherwise it might be a bios problem | 23:09 |
| kroq-gar78 | BDR_ I mean GRUB not BIOS | 23:09 |
| kroq-gar78 | sorry | 23:10 |
| byroncoughlin | Do you guys backup your mbr? | 23:10 |
| eagleserver | byroncoughlin, i dont | 23:11 |
| kroq-gar78 | byroncoughlin: i have no idea how to :P | 23:11 |
| BDR_ | kroq-gar78: Ah, so I go to recovery mode and then hold Shift? | 23:12 |
| kroq-gar78 | BDR_ no other way around: shift then recovery mode. do you see a GRUB menu when you boot ujp? | 23:12 |
| Dr_Willis | byroncoughlin, i found it more worth while to learn how to use grub and reinstall the mbr as needed. :) | 23:12 |
| Dr_Willis | backing up the mbr to a file is not very hard.. id just have to lookup the right dd options | 23:13 |
| BDR_ | First I see a mobo BIOS, then I see GRUB. | 23:13 |
| sarkis | anyone experience notify-osd issues after the screensaver activates??? | 23:13 |
| byroncoughlin | I would recommend only backing up the first 446 bytes | 23:13 |
| BDR_ | It waits for my input at GRUB. | 23:13 |
| xibalba_ | i'm having an utter nightmare today w/ubuntu | 23:14 |
| Dr_Willis | byroncoughlin, yep. theres some # i never can rember.. | 23:14 |
| kroq-gar78 | BDR_ ok then no need to use shift. select recovery mode | 23:14 |
| xibalba_ | i'm hoping i get the software raid going on this next install | 23:14 |
| xibalba_ | at least pfsense came up in a snap | 23:14 |
| Dr_Willis | xibalba_, thank you for reminding me why i never try raid any more. 0_o | 23:14 |
| byroncoughlin | bdr when it gets to the grub menu do you have any keyboard functions | 23:14 |
| xibalba_ | no problem buddy | 23:15 |
| xibalba_ | usually i put 3ware on a raid 5 in a box, throw on vmware and never worry about it | 23:15 |
| xibalba_ | raid is lammme | 23:15 |
| BDR_ | byroncoughlin: yes, I can do exactly as I please there, afterwards it gets major screwed up though | 23:15 |
| xibalba_ | costing me my entire day here | 23:15 |
| xibalba_ | argh | 23:15 |
| BDR_ | right now recovery mode has only gotten me an ubuntu loading screen that has a section of blue and a section of black and white stripes x2 | 23:16 |
| cg2916 | byroncoughlin, would it matter if i had extra files on my live usb | 23:16 |
| cg2916 | like work files | 23:17 |
| byroncoughlin | cg2916 no it should not matter Should be looking for iso | 23:17 |
| cg2916 | byroncoughlin, ok, now should i extract the iso files onto the usb or just put the actual iso file | 23:18 |
| Dr_Willis | we trying to boot an iso file via grub2 ? | 23:18 |
| kroq-gar78 | Dr_Willis: do you just dd the entire drive to back up the mbr? | 23:18 |
| Dr_Willis | kroq-gar78, ive done it both ways.. dependin gon what i want to do. :) | 23:18 |
| byroncoughlin | bdr did you partition during install where a reinstall wont lose data you want? | 23:18 |
| VagasiJani | hi all | 23:18 |
| kroq-gar78 | Dr_Willis: out of curiosity, why would you want to back up MBR? I don't really know what it does... | 23:19 |
| Dr_Willis | kroq-gar78, make it easier to restore it. if needed.. like if you were dual booting.. you could backup the windows mbr. and keep it safe. to put back.. instead of messing with a windows recovery cd. | 23:19 |
| BDR_ | I tried partitioning but I got confused and screwed up the OS installation - fortunately not to this point where I can't even use the Ubuntu CD I made to reinstall. | 23:19 |
| Dr_Willis | kroq-gar78, power up -> bios -> mbr gets loaded -> boots what it says.. | 23:20 |
| VagasiJani | I'm Bin lAden | 23:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Do you have a Ubuntu support question Bin? | 23:20 |
| BDR_ | After that, I just let the installer take the whole drive. | 23:20 |
| kroq-gar78 | Dr_Willis: ah thanks for the info :) never knew that... | 23:20 |
| byroncoughlin | kroq I would just sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=boot.mbr bs=446 count=1 the last bit is the partition table and if you change that then your backup wont restore correctly | 23:21 |
| Dr_Willis | kroq-gar78, check out the wikipedia entry for mbr, it has some interesting stuff. | 23:21 |
| cg2916 | Should i extract the iso files or put the one iso file onto my live usb | 23:21 |
| Dr_Willis | cg2916, normally you dont extract the iso files | 23:21 |
| cg2916 | Dr_willis... ooh | 23:21 |
| VagasiJani | My irc is don't working at firefox :S | 23:21 |
| koppe | Are there any stand-alone programs suitable for downloading movie-streams -- preferably both WindowsMedia and Flash-video (what's that protocol called? rmms?)? Something like "Media Catcher" for Windows... | 23:21 |
| Dr_Willis | cg2916, but im not clear on what you are doing exactly | 23:21 |
| ActionParsnip | cg2916: no, use unetbootin to put the iso on the USB. At no point to you ever extract the ubuntu iso | 23:21 |
| BDR_ | At this point I have no data I need to keep on the computer, it's basically brand new. | 23:21 |
| Dr_Willis | koppe, theres streamripper and tunapie (i recall) | 23:22 |
| kroq-gar78 | byroncoughlin Dr_Willis: thanks for the info guys ;) I'll keep it in mind | 23:22 |
| Phsy-Ops | Hello | 23:22 |
| cg2916 | ActionParsnip when I use unetbootin it extracts the files | 23:22 |
| cg2916 | Dr_willis I'm making a live usb | 23:22 |
| Dr_Willis | unetbootin does other stuff as well. | 23:22 |
| Dr_Willis | You can boot the iso files via grub2 and not extract them | 23:22 |
| ActionParsnip | cg2916: yes but ou don't do it yourself, the app does it | 23:22 |
| koppe | Alternatively, would it be possible to use a proxy (eg. squid) to intercept and cache everything -- including streamed-vids and pictures for flash-galleries? | 23:23 |
| cg2916 | ActionParsnip, ok, but UNETBootin nor Universal USB installer works | 23:23 |
| Dr_Willis | koppe, im not sure squid caches that sort of stuff. | 23:23 |
| koppe | Streamripper and tunapie? I'll have a look... | 23:23 |
| Dr_Willis | koppe, and streamtuner i recall.. but it depends on the stream a great deal | 23:24 |
| Dr_Willis | koppe, i think vlc can also do some of that stuff | 23:24 |
| Dr_Willis | cg2916, so what OS are you using to make the live usb? | 23:24 |
| cg2916 | Dr_willis Windows 7 | 23:25 |
| Dr_Willis | cg2916, theres proberly a dozen+ tools out to try to make a bootable flash drive. Pendrivelinuix has several, theres lili, and perhaps more i cant even rember/seen. | 23:25 |
| koppe | Dr_Willis: I'll have a look. Though it would be great if it happened automatically while surfing... (media catcher detects streams started in the browser, and starts downloading independently) | 23:26 |
| cg2916 | Dr_willis, ok but i've already tried two | 23:26 |
| kroq-gar78 | Dr_Willis: don't forget the Ubuntu default tool ;) | 23:26 |
| Dr_Willis | cg2916, so... :) try 5. if it takes 5.... | 23:26 |
| koppe | That's while I thought a proxy might be ideal... | 23:26 |
| Dr_Willis | kroq-gar78, i find that one .. probnlematic.. | 23:26 |
| cg2916 | Dr_willis ok | 23:26 |
| Dr_Willis | I perfer the simple 'grub2 booting the iso file' method. | 23:26 |
| kroq-gar78 | Dr_Willis: yeah kind of. only does debian/ubuntu based ones (at least I think so) :( | 23:27 |
| kroq-gar78 | Dr_Willis: how do you boot and iso via grub? that would be usefull... | 23:27 |
| Dr_Willis | cg2916, one thing to 'test' would be if using the multi-boot-iso tools from pendrivelinux. is have it put more then 1 disrto on the pendrive.. see if any of them work. | 23:27 |
| JoAnneOminous | Hi again, everyone. While upgrading, ubuntu told me I had to manually restart kdm, wdm and xdm, since I've got an active x-windows session running, in order to have more x-sessions or somesuch. Will restarting the xwindow manager server this manual restart purpose, or rebooting the computer, or do I have to do some sort of "/etc/init.d/kdm start" sort of thing with each? | 23:27 |
| cg2916 | Dr_Willis, ok, but I don't like downloading huge ISOs | 23:28 |
| Dr_Willis | kroq-gar78, check http://delicious.com/dr_willis in my grub tags. :) theres proberly better guides out by now on it.. pendrivelinux web site has several tools to do it.. and directions also | 23:28 |
| Dr_Willis | cg2916, tinycorelinux = 10mb.... | 23:28 |
| Dr_Willis | cg2916, see if that one works. :) | 23:28 |
| kroq-gar78 | Dr_Willis: thanks dude :D | 23:28 |
| Dr_Willis | tinycore is good for 'testing' things. | 23:28 |
| ActionParsnip | JoAnneOminous: just let it run through, then restart the system, its sufficient | 23:28 |
| cg2916 | Dr_willis ok | 23:28 |
| JoAnneOminous | ActionParsnip: Groovy. Thank you! | 23:28 |
| Dr_Willis | cg2916, also the 'gparted live cd' is like 120mb.. and worth having handy. | 23:29 |
| Dr_Willis | cg2916, about the only tool ive used is --> http://www.pendrivelinux.com/yumi-multiboot-usb-creator/ | 23:29 |
| BDR_ | so I guess nobody's got any more ideas then | 23:31 |
| JoAnneOminous | ActionParsnip: gdm specifically asked for an init.d/gdm start...is that necessary or will that be handled in the reboot? | 23:31 |
| cg2916 | Dr_Willis, YUMI doesn't have Lubuntu 11.04 on its list | 23:31 |
| ActionParsnip | JoAnneOminous: the reboot wil do it | 23:31 |
| Dr_Willis | cg2916, rename the lubuntu iso to be the same as the ubuntu one perhaps.. | 23:32 |
| JoAnneOminous | ActionParsnip: Okay....thanks again. | 23:32 |
| ActionParsnip | cg2916: http://people.ubuntu.com/~gilir/lubuntu-11.04.iso | 23:32 |
| cg2916 | does lubuntu have a 32 and 64 bit version | 23:32 |
| Dr_Willis | I dont recall there being any differances in lubuntu vs ubuntu in that area. | 23:32 |
| Dr_Willis | cg2916, ive seen unofficial 64bit builds/versions | 23:32 |
| cg2916 | Dr_willis, ok | 23:32 |
| Dr_Willis | thats sort of like a Hemi engine in a Fiat. :) | 23:33 |
| ActionParsnip | cg2916: sure, you can even install ubuntu minimal then install lubuntu-desktop :) | 23:33 |
| Dr_Willis | using lubuntu 16bit here right now.. works very well. | 23:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Or just use ubuntu, then install lubuntu-desktop | 23:33 |
| cg2916 | 16 bit? | 23:33 |
| kroq-gar78 | Dr_Willis: can I use the Grub2 iso entry boot thing with wubi too, or do I have to have it in an actual (as in non-wubi) installation? | 23:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Dr_Willis: 16bit, nice | 23:33 |
| Dr_Willis | theres to many apps out that are better then the lubuntu defaults. | 23:33 |
| jewoodall | I just did a vanilla install of 11.04 Desktop in 32-bit format. On initial boot, the login screen keeps coming up, going away, and then coming up again. Apparently endless loop. Tried reinstalling, this time selecting auto-login. Same issue. | 23:33 |
| kroq-gar78 | lol nice | 23:33 |
| cg2916 | dr_willis, i like having the lightweight applications that come bundled with lubuntu | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | kroq-gar78, it boots an ISO file.. it dosent do wubi. | 23:34 |
| cg2916 | not just the lxde desktop | 23:34 |
| kroq-gar78 | Dr_Willis: thanks :) | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | cg2916, you can always install them.. | 23:34 |
| cg2916 | Dr_willis, but it's slow :( | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | cg2916, whats slow? | 23:34 |
| cg2916 | downloading all of them | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | never noticed.. | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | perhaps.. 10 min here. :) | 23:34 |
| ActionParsnip | jewoodall: boot to recovery root mode with networking, get a wired connection and get fully updated/ May help | 23:35 |
| ActionParsnip | jewoodall: or use safe graphics mode | 23:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Using Lubuntu+AvantWindow Navigator here right now. | 23:35 |
| ActionParsnip | jewoodall: what video chip do you use? | 23:35 |
| Dr_Willis | http://www.pendrivelinux.com/put-lubuntu-on-a-flash-drive-using-windows/ | 23:35 |
| ActionParsnip | unity2D + Lubuntu + compiz :) | 23:35 |
| brightspark | hey my sleep function quit working- suggestions? | 23:36 |

| jewoodall | actionparsnip: First install was set to fully update on first install, but not opposed to trying it. I know that the video card is an MSI. It's hard to check the model with the PC in this condition. | 23:37 |
| Dr_Willis | MSI? what chipset is that using? | 23:38 |
| kroq-gar78 | hey guys, I was wondering if I had a problem with Unity (3D). Since yesterday, the backgrounds to all my pinned apps are gone until I open them. Tell me if you need any more explaination. Thanks in advance :) | 23:38 |
| kroq-gar78 | I used confity, but only vchanged the icon size | 23:38 |
| jewoodall | The system is definitely older, it has a KT6V mobo and a 1.2 GHZ chip. The card is likely a weak one, even for that era. | 23:38 |
| Dr_Willis | kroq-gar78, you could reset the settings back to defaults --> unity --reset-icons | 23:39 |
| kroq-gar78 | Dr_Willis: would that reset the panel too? or just the icons on the left? | 23:39 |
| byroncoughlin | cg2916 Do you have access to a llinux distro to create the bootable usb. Also have you tried pulling the stickout out and reinserting when you get to the error? | 23:39 |
| jewoodall | If the chipset matters, I can certainly try to check it for you. | 23:39 |
| cg2916 | byroncoughlin, no and no | 23:39 |
| Dr_Willis | kroq-gar78, i forget.. i have such issues with unity.. ive had to use those commands so much.. i made a script that reset all of unity and compiz.. then dumped unity... | 23:40 |
| Skaperen | has anyone switched their bootloader over to syslinux with 10.04 or 10.10 ? | 23:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Skaperen, you mean change from grub2 to syslinux on a installed system? | 23:40 |
| Skaperen | Dr_Willis: yeah ... or during install if that's necessary | 23:40 |
| kroq-gar78 | Dr_Willis: thanks, but that stinks about your unity experience :( | 23:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Skaperen, normally you dont use syslinux for that.. it just dosent have the featureset of grub2 | 23:41 |
| Skaperen | what features does ubuntu need of it? | 23:41 |
| Dr_Willis | kroq-gar78, unity icons are constantly getting currupted here every time i start up a browser.. never managed to find any other bug reports mentioning tghe issue.. | 23:42 |
| Diverdude | if i want to use system users in a .htaccess file, is that possible somehow? | 23:42 |
| Dr_Willis | Skaperen, what are you expecting to gain by using syslinux? i imagine you can set it up. but kernel updates and so forth would be expecting grub2 i imagine. | 23:43 |
| GeekMan122 | hi all i have been running a samba server over my local network but latly i am moving more towards allowing people to access it remotely. i use ubuntu 10.04.2 lts and in order to connect to the server remotely we use hamachi only problem is that now i have some one helping but they dont have rights to the share for editing.... continuing | 23:43 |
| Skaperen | hmmm ... ubuntu included it ... wonder why | 23:43 |
| pooltable | not sure where to ask but hulu on wii how or can it be done? | 23:44 |
| Dr_Willis | syslinux is normally used for live-usb and bootable optical media | 23:44 |
| GeekMan122 | lol should i use samba adn hamachi or go with like some other configuration | 23:44 |
| pooltable | also any info on the next ubuntu? | 23:44 |
| Skaperen | and grub2 can't do libe-usb ? | 23:44 |
| pooltable | 11.11 | 23:44 |
| pooltable | 11.10 | 23:44 |
| Dr_Willis | http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/The_Syslinux_Project | 23:44 |
| kroq-gar78 | pooltable: i tihnk ur wii question that's for #ubuntu-offtopic unless I read your post wrong. | 23:44 |
| Dr_Willis | Skaperen, never heard of libe-usb befor.. so no idea | 23:45 |
| Skaperen | I know about syslinux ... just curious if ubuntu users have switched to it | 23:45 |
| kroq-gar78 | and about 11.10: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/tag/oneiric | 23:45 |
| kroq-gar78 | :) | 23:45 |
| Dr_Willis | You can set up grub2 to boot a live-flash drive... | 23:45 |
| Skaperen | s/libe/live/ | 23:45 |
| Dr_Willis | or boot an iso file.. or more... | 23:45 |
| prety | while installing ubuntu 11.04 i got error- ininramfs error cannot mount dev/loop0 (/cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs) on //filesystem.squashfs. how to fix that issue?? | 23:45 |
| kroq-gar78 | Dr_Willis: man, grub is AWESOME!!!!! | 23:45 |
| Toph2 | in Ubuntu 11.04, how do I set Adobe Reader as my default for .pdf files,,,, i don't see an options in 'Preferred Applications' | 23:45 |
| GeekMan122 | i just need someone to point me in the right direction here cause hamachi is kinda lacking works great for downloads | 23:46 |
| brightspark | hey my sleep function quit working- suggestions? | 23:46 |
| kroq-gar78 | Tpoh2: go to nautilus, right click a pdf and say properties | 23:46 |
| Dr_Willis | kroq-gar78, whats scary is the ubuntu version of grub2.. is not using some of the more 'fancy' features.. (yet) from what ive read of the grub2 docs/works in progress | 23:46 |
| noip | My internet connection is working fine on my windows machine, but on my linux box in Chrome/Chromium/Firefox the lookup is taking like 3-10 seconds and sometimes fails altogether until I refresh. Any ideas what could be causing this? | 23:46 |
| kroq-gar78 | tpoh2: then select the "Open | 23:46 |
| noip | I'm on Ubuntu 11.04 btw. | 23:46 |
| Skaperen | Dr_Willis: so basically, there isn't an abstract pan-bootloader API in the debian packaging system to trigger whatever updates each bootloader needs when packages need that to happen, and it assumes grub2, and if you want to try a different bootloader you're on your own and good luck | 23:47 |
| kroq-gar78 | tpoh2: then select the "Open With" tab and select adobe reader | 23:47 |
| pooltable | kroq-gar78 thanks | 23:47 |
| kroq-gar78 | pooltable: np | 23:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Skaperen, lilo, grub, and grub2 are about the only ones used on normally installed systems.. You could setup extlinux if you wanted.. but i dont see what you gain | 23:47 |
| GeekMan122 | i think i should use like kerberos or something to do this | 23:47 |
| === `mOOse` is now known as m00se | ||
| Toph2 | kroq-gar78,,, will that then become my default in the future? | 23:48 |
| Dr_Willis | lilo = old, grub1 = not as old.. grub2 = the standard these days. | 23:48 |
| kroq-gar78 | Toph2: yup, should be | 23:48 |
| Toph2 | kroq-gar78,,, thanks | 23:48 |
| Dr_Willis | EXTLINUX - SYSLINUX for ext2/ext3/ext4 and btrfs filesystems | 23:48 |
| kroq-gar78 | Toph2: np | 23:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm. btrfs support now.. thats new. :) | 23:48 |
| Skaperen | Dr_Willis: while lilo is worse in this regard, I have run into issues with grub2 (and grub1) when moving drives around between systems (and udev, too, but that's a different matter) | 23:49 |
| joshz | I'm having trouble setting up an external monitor with 11.04. It fails to detect the external monitor (I'm on an old laptop) when running off the install on the HDD, but it works fine (and auto-detects!) when booted off the live CD. What can I do to resolve this? | 23:49 |
| Skaperen | yes, syslinux can read btrfs | 23:49 |
| Dr_Willis | everyone was all abuzz about 'btrfs' i rember.. but you just dont hear it mentioned much any more... | 23:50 |
| brightspark | does anyone have an idea why I can no longer suspend my linux session but I can standby in Windows? | 23:50 |
| usr13 | brightspark: Well, what has changed since you were last able to? | 23:50 |
| Skaperen | actually, I only recently heard of btrfs ... because Fedora 15 will use it by default (not that I use Fedora ... I avoid it for the most part, but do have a couple copies in VMs for testing) | 23:51 |
| brightspark | sometimes it works after a restart, but then you might as well just shut it down | 23:51 |
| Escherial | so, is evolution the only mail client that has deep integration into ubuntu? | 23:51 |
| Escherial | it'd be really nice if i could sub it out for thunderbird somehow | 23:51 |
| aeon-ltd | Escherial: yes | 23:51 |
| e_t_ | They're working on TB for 11.10, aren't they? | 23:51 |
| GeekMan122 | brightspark, if you did a system update like to a new distro you may have lost compatiblity (pointing out the obvious) | 23:51 |
| aeon-ltd | Escherial: all default apps are installed with integration in mind, so the OS is more 'complete' | 23:51 |
| kroq-gar78 | Escherial: they're making thunderbird default in 11.10 from what I've heard, so maybe it'll be better then hopefully | 23:51 |
| brightspark | usr13, the problem used to show up about once a month but has gotten worse recently. | 23:51 |
| aeon-ltd | Escherial: though nothing you can't do by modding/hacking a little | 23:52 |
| Escherial | ah, that's good to know :3 i'm willing to wait, just a minor annoyance | 23:52 |
| Escherial | who knows, i may even start using evolution :) | 23:52 |
| Skaperen | Dr_Willis: so if I have 10.10 on a live-usb, and want to upgrade it to the latest kernel, what happens (say I do "apt-get update && apt-get --yes dist-upgrade") | 23:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Skaperen, ive found that on a 'live-usb' using a persistant save file.. such a upgrade dosent work... | 23:52 |
| brightspark | usr13, GeekMan122, no- I am running 10.10 and have been since October. I've not made any major changes recently. | 23:53 |
| Dr_Willis | I only use live-usbs in a limited case.. I have found to many issues with updateing/upgrading them and installing extra drivers on them. | 23:53 |
| Skaperen | Dr_Willis: did you find a bug report about that or do they already have one? | 23:53 |
| GeekMan122 | im nota wiz so :/ | 23:53 |
| kroq-gar78 | Is there an advantage for swtiching from 10.04 to 10.10? | 23:54 |
| brightspark | usr13, GeekMan122, the biggest thing I've done recently is installing veetle not through repositories. | 23:54 |
| GeekMan122 | maybe a bad shutdown or some freak thing | 23:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Skaperen, The live-usb setup is allready loaded the kernel from the read only part of the usb,. it cant get it from the 'persistant save file' it dosent work in the same way as a fully installed system. so its a limitation of | 23:54 |
| Dr_Willis | the way the live-usb works and not a bug | 23:55 |
