| mecheese | edbian yes i do have a xorg.conf. the display works in recovery mode if your talking about from the cd. | 00:00 |

| edbian | mecheese: the liveCD is NOT recovery mode :) We need to remove xorg.conf (change it to backup.xorg.conf at least) | 00:01 |
|---|
| edbian | mecheese: Do you know how to do that from a liveCD or should I guide you? | 00:01 |
|---|
| mecheese | edbian done | 00:02 |
|---|
| edbian | mecheese: reboot | 00:02 |

| yaaase | I had a question. I am running ubuntu 11.04, x64. Using VGA to double output to my tv (lcd). The scaling is wrong on the tv output, the top and left areas of the screen get cut off. Anyone know how to tell the system to measure the screen from the 2nd monitor rather than from the primary? | 00:07 |
|---|
| ronqbc | i'm tryinh to open the running evulution that won't pop up. why? | 00:07 |
|---|
| szal | yaaase: use either a digital cable or, if applicable, the TV's auto-adjust feature | 00:08 |
|---|
| yaaase | szal thank you | 00:08 |

| scoundrel50a | Hi, I was just wondering, what is the next version of Thunderbird, above 3.1.11, I think I got version 5 off Mozilla, it was a zip file, but it does show you how to install it. How do I install it? | 00:10 |
|---|
| mecheese | no x at all | 00:10 |
|---|
| sudokill | mecheese, did you upgrade ubuntu or something? | 00:11 |
|---|
| kroq-gar78 | scoundrel50a: did you donwload a tar.gz file from mozilla.org (or something like the website) | 00:11 |
|---|
| mecheese | i renamed my xorg.conf and now x doesn't start | 00:11 |
|---|
| mecheese | sudokill I'm using lucid | 00:11 |
|---|
| scoundrel50a | From Mozilla | 00:11 |
|---|
| sudokill | mecheese, why rename xorg.conf | 00:11 |
|---|
| scoundrel50a | and yes it was a tar.gz file | 00:11 |
|---|
| mecheese | i tried upgrading and went back to lucid that's how it all started | 00:11 |
|---|
| kroq-gar78 | scoundrel50a: do you HAVE to uswe the version from mozilla, or do you just want thunderbird 5? | 00:11 |
|---|
| edbian | sudokill: He had some legacy one. I told him to remove it for a bit. | 00:12 |
|---|
| sudokill | oh ok | 00:12 |
|---|
| edbian | mecheese: what happens when you boot? | 00:12 |
|---|
| sudokill | mecheese, is it even possible to go back a version? | 00:12 |
|---|

|---|
| edbian | mecheese: What happens when you boot? | 00:12 |
|---|
| scoundrel50a | kroq-gar78: I wante to try version 5, | 00:12 |

|---|
| scoundrel50a | kroq-gar78: I have the file on my desktop | 00:12 |
|---|
| mecheese | edbian no x | 00:13 |
|---|
| sudokill | mecheese, s its a clean install? | 00:13 |
|---|
| szal | mecheese, edbian: no surprises here, since part of the process of installing the nVidia driver is blacklisting nouveau | 00:13 |
|---|
| edbian | mecheese: I know that. What do you see? | 00:13 |
|---|
| scoundrel50a | but what I do with it, I dont know | 00:13 |
|---|
| edbian | szal: We didn't install the nvidia driver | 00:13 |
|---|
| szal | edbian: iirc, we did that yesterday | 00:13 |
|---|
| edbian | szal: He says he's using nouveau | 00:13 |
|---|
| kroq-gar78 | scoundrel50a: ok open up a terminal and run the following command "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/thunderbird-stable" | 00:13 |

|---|
| sudokill | nouveau doesnt even need xorg.conf does it? | 00:14 |

|---|
| ronqbc | i'm tryinh to open the running evulution that won't pop up. why? | 00:14 |
|---|
| edbian | cyperbg: :D | 00:14 |
|---|
| kroq-gar78 | scoundrel50a: it's safer (as in more stable probably) to get it from the ubuntu guys who did a few modifications to thunderbird and get auto-updates than get it from mozilla | 00:14 |

| graalgonstruckt | I was wondering if anyone would be able to assist me to adding a radio station to banshee on ubuntu. | 00:14 |

|---|
| szal | phretor: not a *buntu problem; ask in #ubuntu-offtopic or in ##hardware | 00:14 |
|---|
| sudokill | mecheese, if its very clean install, if i was you id try another re-install might be quicker | 00:14 |
|---|
| mecheese | edbian I don't know haven't tried it yet | 00:14 |
|---|
| edbian | mecheese: try it | 00:14 |
|---|
| kroq-gar78 | graagonstruckt: go to the menu, then do File -> Add radio statino | 00:15 |
|---|
| scoundrel50a | kroq-gar78: I just did that, what next? | 00:15 |
|---|
| mecheese | sudokill it would be the 6 or 7th reinstall | 00:15 |

| cyperbg1 | edbian: so I choose Erase disk and Install Ubuntu and on the next step I select it says The entire disk will be used but below that it also says: 1 partition will be deleted. Why? | 00:54 |
|---|
| edbian | cyperbg1: The partition left from the last failed install. | 00:55 |
|---|
| cyperbg1 | I deleted everything after the fail attempt | 00:55 |
|---|
| edbian | cyperbg1: Use gparted on the liveCD to get a look if you want. | 00:55 |
|---|
| cyperbg1 | I used it | 00:55 |
|---|
| gnaddel | edbian, yeah that what google told me, doesn't work though ;) | 00:55 |
|---|
| edbian | cyperbg1: Look at it in gparted? Does it say 'unallocated' ? | 00:55 |
|---|
| cyperbg1 | yes | 00:55 |
|---|
| edbian | cyperbg1: then IDK. Are you installing it to the wrong HDD ? | 00:55 |
|---|
| cyperbg1 | I deleted all the partitions after the fail attemmp | 00:55 |
|---|
| cyperbg1 | nope | 00:56 |
|---|
| gnaddel | Don't think I can disable it in the macbooks efi (or whatever the bios replacement is properly called) | 00:56 |
|---|
| edbian | cyperbg1: IDK | 00:56 |
|---|
| cyperbg1 | th Installer have inbuilt parition tool | 00:56 |
|---|
| cyperbg1 | if I select it there are no partitions | 00:56 |
|---|
| cyperbg1 | but it still says 1 will be deleted | 00:56 |
|---|
| edbian | cyperbg1: IDK. strange | 00:56 |
|---|
| gnaddel | could it be that the device gets somehow reactivated on login? | 00:56 |
|---|
| dli | gnaddel, or you can choose to blacklist the kernel driver | 00:56 |
|---|
| cyperbg1 | the Advanced Partition tool says: Device: dev/sdb Free space 7790 | 00:57 |
|---|
| edbian | gnaddel: Maybe, but I don't that that would happen after the script. | 00:57 |
|---|
| cyperbg1 | and there is only 1 active button: New partition table | 00:57 |
|---|
| edbian | cyperbg1: It's probably just a bug. | 00:58 |
|---|
| vibhav | mixmasterxp no | 00:58 |
|---|
| cyperbg1 | ok I will continie | 00:58 |

|---|
| stunts513 | I'm on iPod and the app crashed | 01:16 |
|---|
| sloale | dli: the wlan host is box1 the wired guest is box2 - can i pass a command on box1 to determine the wired connections (box2's)ip? | 01:17 |

|---|
| Mixmasterxp | So I cant use wubi, I'm setting up the partitions myself | 01:17 |
|---|
| bazhang | komodiemo, in #ubuntu-es | 01:17 |
|---|
| stunts513 | I have problem with ubuntu and my gfx card or possibly southbridge | 01:17 |
|---|
| Mixmasterxp | but I'm only allowed 4 primary partitions | 01:17 |
|---|
| Mixmasterxp | I want to install ubuntu and windows and also have a storage partition. I currently have 3 primary partitions; 1mb for system reserved, 100mb for some windows thing and 200gb for windows | 01:17 |
|---|
| Mixmasterxp | I want to make another partition for ubuntu, but I also need to make 2 other partitions; for swap and for storage | 01:17 |
|---|
| Mixmasterxp | how do I handle a situation like this? | 01:17 |
|---|
| bazhang | stunts513, more details would get a better answer | 01:18 |
|---|
| Mixmasterxp | Can I delete the 1mb partition labeled as SYSTEM RESERVED? | 01:18 |
|---|
| dli | sloale, usually, it's not a problem, the wired one is handled by dhcp or static IP | 01:18 |
|---|
| Mixmasterxp | there is no flag on it that states it to be of type BOOT | 01:18 |
|---|
| stunts513 | Ok if I Try to boot from cd, the graphic card goes way outta refresh rate range and screen starts flickering b4 any text comes up about the boot or a bootscreen | 01:19 |
|---|
| dli | sloale, if you still have no idea, do something like 'ip add list', it display a list containing wired IP, netmask, you can ping within that subnet | 01:19 |
|---|
| stunts513 | And now iy seems like it locked up caus not even the numlock is responding | 01:20 |
|---|
| szal | Mixmasterxp: why not make an extended partition & put some partitions on it? *buntu shouldn't have a problem booting from tha | 01:20 |
|---|
| szal | t | 01:20 |
|---|
| dli | sloale, or, do something like: netstat -n|less | 01:20 |

| nitrohax | bazhang, yes. it's root for install | 01:23 |
|---|
| nitrohax | if i go to live cd and then run gparted there it will allow to make it all ext4 with out losing data? | 01:24 |
|---|
| bazhang | nitrohax, you booted the live cd to do this? you would need to unmount anything to resize it | 01:24 |
|---|
| mosx1 | The configuration could not be saved: you are not allowed to modify the system configuration | 01:24 |
|---|
| mosx1 | what a fail | 01:24 |
|---|
| stunts513 | The whole reason I'm doing this is cause when I upgraded my dostro I crashed the debian os | 01:24 |
|---|
| dli | stunts513, just remove 'quiet splash' add something like 'i915.modeset=0' or 'radeon.modeset=0', depends on your video card | 01:24 |
|---|
| nitrohax | bazhang, no i'm on the installed HDD. I'm trying to make this partition to the full disk | 01:25 |
|---|
| stunts513 | dli: um ok where can I findiut what I need to put | 01:25 |
|---|
| bazhang | nitrohax, you need to be on a live cd of some sort, if you are talking about resizing the partition you are currently running from | 01:25 |
|---|
| nitrohax | ok thank you | 01:26 |
|---|
| dli | nitrohax, if everthing else has failed, try to copy out the partition (cp -avxAH, or partimage) | 01:26 |

| Meshelton | Hi All | 01:36 |
|---|
| Meshelton | I have a quick question if anyone is on right now | 01:36 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | Mixmasterxp: why not just make the windows partition bigger then have ubuntu access you mydocs via the usuall ntfs way, or did you want a seperate userdata partition? | 01:37 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | Meshelton: ask away | 01:37 |
|---|
| Meshelton | Ok so I found a script that will automatically rip a dvd when you put it in a drive | 01:37 |
|---|
| Meshelton | which is pretty cool cause I'm putting together a media server | 01:37 |
|---|
| Mixmasterxp | ActionParsnip: I'm used to having a seperate partition for my storage, something outside of the C drive | 01:38 |
|---|
| Meshelton | the issue is that the script automatically takes the name of the disc for the mkv file it eventually creates | 01:38 |
|---|
| bazhang | Meshelton, whats the question | 01:38 |
|---|
| Meshelton | I was wondering if there was a way for me to make the script prompt the user for the title of the movie | 01:38 |

| bazhang | Meshelton, use ogmrip instead | 01:39 |

| mlybrand | bazhang, thanks. I am not sure what you would need to know. Ubuntu 11.04, Compaq Presario CQ60. Atheros Wireless card. Ubuntu indicates Disabled due to hardware switch. Wireless button on device shows blue (functional). What more do I need to provide (clueless newbie, sorry)? | 02:03 |
|---|
| bazhang | mlybrand, did you try turning the hw switch off then back on, there was a bug I had on my laptop similar (different chipset though); also, is it a hidden essid or not | 02:03 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | mlybrand: if you run: sudo iwlist scan do you see wireless networks? | 02:03 |
|---|
| bazhang | mlybrand, which atheros precisely, please | 02:03 |
|---|
| mlybrand | ActionParsnip, hold please. | 02:04 |
|---|
| mlybrand | ActionParsnip, that command shows three items, lo, eth0, wlan0 | 02:05 |

| mlybrand | all three show interface does not support scanning | 02:05 |

| ubottu | bob_: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 02:08 |

| mlybrand | Atheros is AR5001 | 02:09 |

| mlybrand | okay. Let's see what happens. | 02:12 |

|---|
| Bi0haz4rd | but i want to run ubuntu through virtual box | 02:15 |
|---|
| bazhang | Bi0haz4rd, you dont extract the iso, you use the iso as is for vbox | 02:15 |
|---|

| bazhang | mlybrand, thats a pretty broad subject, I usually just "item name ubuntu" in a search engine, and it leads directly to ubuntuforums posts | 02:17 |

|---|

| bazhang | mlybrand, glad its working | 02:19 |

|---|
| bazhang | dee27, its simply called flush, whats the question about it | 02:20 |
|---|
| bob_ | szal, nope, just an infinite loop. I am starting the reload. Will use the steps you suggested yesterday first thing after installing | 02:20 |
|---|
| dee27 | thats what i said | 02:20 |
|---|
| bob_ | szal, hopefully that will do the trick. You were wanting me to do the nvidia-96 instead of nvidia-current.. maybe that was the issue | 02:20 |
|---|
| dee27 | flush | 02:20 |
|---|
| bazhang | dee27, whats the question about it | 02:21 |
|---|
| stunts513 | Sorry I lagged out | 02:21 |

| dee27 | is anybody having problems with it?? | 02:21 |
|---|
| bazhang | dee27, never used it, transmission works here | 02:21 |
|---|
| bob_ | sval, if this still doesn't work, I am going to grab a newer video card | 02:21 |
|---|
| szal | bob_: that's my guess too, especially since BluesKaj failed to explain what he meant when he said that 'nvidia-current' is supposed to pull in different driver versions according to the card in use | 02:21 |

| StepNjump | hi guys, I have an app I would like to install, it's written in Java and comes as a tarball. Could anyone would be patient enough to tell me how to install it? | 03:23 |
|---|
| Pwnna | ActionParsnip: i can't really do a liveCD right now, it took A LOT to actually install and make ubuntu usable. I had to patch the kernel from xorg-edgers (2.5.39-3) with fglrx to allow switchable graphics to work. If not, I could use the vgaswitcheroo, which wouldn't let me shutdown/reboot/logout without hard resetting. I can tell you though, i didn't notice this issue before patching the kernel. | 03:23 |
|---|
| Pwnna | 2.6** | 03:23 |
|---|
| bob_ | szal, okay, it looks like the nvidia-96 package is broken | 03:24 |
|---|
| bob_ | szal, the first thing I did was a sudo apt-get install nvidia-96 and the package returns broken packages | 03:24 |
|---|
| bob_ | szal, so I am assuming I am out of luck, will probably need to report it as a bug, no? | 03:25 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | Pwnna: maybe it's the 3rd party kernel you are using | 03:25 |
|---|
| Pwnna | ActionParsnip: xorg-edger? | 03:25 |

|---|
| ActionParsnip | Pwnna: could try oneiric to test | 03:26 |
|---|
| DanaG | It crashed Xorg. | 03:26 |
|---|
| DanaG | It was 4 years ago now, that the driver went from "works" to "crashes Xorg". | 03:26 |
|---|
| DanaG | And each year thereafter, nvidia updated it to crash new versions of Xorg. | 03:26 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | Pwnna: that video chip switching stuff always causes grief | 03:26 |
|---|
| bob_ | yeah, probably will need to just get a newer vid card | 03:26 |

| Pwnna | ActionParsnip: from weeks upon weeks of research, I've only been able to find that 2.6.39 works | 03:27 |
|---|
| DanaG | yeah, same here. | 03:27 |
|---|
| Pwnna | also idk if it's the video switching stuff that's causing the issue of the memory | 03:28 |

| Pwnna | it seems possible, but still somewhat unrelated | 03:28 |

| DanaG | bob_: er, meant that for you. geforce *cough*oneplusoneequalsFOUR* MX, mobile. | 03:28 |

|---|
| bob_ | DanaG, yeah, this is an older machine, but sounds like I will be better off replacing it | 03:28 |
|---|
| Pwnna | ActionParsnip: would that require me to patch again? | 03:28 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | bob_: you can get decent nvidia video cards for the price of a 6 ack :) | 03:28 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | pack* | 03:29 |
|---|
| centHOGG | sure | 03:29 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | Pwnna: its a seperate kernel, no patching. Just install the packages | 03:29 |

| KrashKing | centHOGG: how | 04:07 |
|---|
| centHOGG | KrashKing: not too hard.. google on how to do it | 04:07 |
|---|
| alum1num | KrashKing: centHOGG's right you can edit your sudoers but I'd be careful on how you do it because if you never have to type in your password; you kinda defeat one of linux's security measures | 04:08 |
|---|
| KrashKing | I'm the only one who would use it | 04:09 |
|---|
| centHOGG | KrashKing: still linux has a lot of pwords | 04:09 |

|---|
| guest_ | how can i remove it via terminal? | 04:27 |
|---|
| enigmus | Has anyone made a SSH module or wrapper tool that would be capable of making SSH "more reactive/interactive" over slow links? In the same manner NX can be very interactive over slow links (much better than a SSH session over the same link). | 04:28 |

| === Kasjopaja is now known as Guest5630 |
| carbon357 | guest : your ubuntu account or irc ? | 04:30 |
|---|
| Blue1 | guest_: you could try renaming /etc/password and /etc/shadow | 04:30 |
|---|
| guest_ | Ubuntu | 04:30 |
|---|
| guest_ | no i think its just the Light gdm is crashing for some reason | 04:31 |
|---|
| guest_ | id rather remove it via terminal now, but i dunno the command. I had it bookmarked under my normal account too :/ | 04:31 |
|---|
| Blue1 | troll | 04:31 |
|---|
| carbon357 | guest : boot with a live cd and change the password | 04:31 |
|---|
| guest_ | whos a troll? | 04:32 |
|---|
| guest_ | carbon357, You really think its the passwork? | 04:32 |

| [THC]AcidRain | very nice plugin for rhythm box | 04:33 |
|---|
| carbon357 | guest_: no now | 04:35 |
|---|
| guest_ | Does anyone know how to remove Light GDM via terminal? | 04:37 |
|---|
| edbian | guest_: What is Light GDM? GDM stands for gnome display manager. I'm not aware of a light version. | 04:38 |
|---|
| guest_ | edbian, Its what they are going to use in 11.10. Ive been testing it and now it keeps crashing after a new update and wont let me into my normal login for some reason :/ | 04:38 |
|---|
| Kreative` | guest_, you mean LightDM? In that case, it should be sudo apt-get remove lightdm, and then dpkg --reconfigure gdm | 04:38 |
|---|
| edbian | guest_: Are you using 11.10 ? If so ask in #ubuntu+1 | 04:39 |
|---|
| guest_ | Kreative`, o wow...my bad | 04:39 |
|---|
| Kreative` | Haha, it happens. | 04:39 |
|---|
| py9371 | is a 73.78% a c or a c-? | 04:39 |
|---|
| guest_ | makes sense if they named it my way though ahahha | 04:39 |
|---|
| Kreative` | c- | 04:40 |
|---|
| edbian | py9371: Depends on the scale the professor is using. This is offtopic | 04:40 |
|---|
| bobweaver | Any one know anything about Making a splash screen for kubuntu ? | 04:40 |
|---|
| guest_ | Kreative`, shit...umm, since i can only get into a guest account apparently i cant sudo? | 04:40 |
|---|
| Kreative` | Well, you kindave have to to set gdm back to default.. :P | 04:40 |
|---|
| Kreative` | Though, removing lightdm should set it as default | 04:41 |
|---|
| Kreative` | If you have no other dm installed, that is | 04:41 |
|---|
| guest_ | nope just lightdm | 04:41 |
|---|
| guest_ | though wouldnt removing it require sudo? | 04:41 |
|---|
| edbian | This should all be in #ubuntu+1 | 04:41 |
|---|
| Kreative` | Ah, yes it would | 04:41 |
|---|
| Kreative` | lol | 04:42 |
|---|

|---|
| bazhang | fenjamin, why not use pdfedit | 04:59 |
|---|
| bazhang | !info pdfedit | fenjamin | 04:59 |
|---|
| ubottu | fenjamin: pdfedit (source: pdfedit): Editor for manipulating PDF documents. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.4.5-2 (natty), package size 1957 kB, installed size 6636 kB | 04:59 |
|---|
| bazhang | Skudd, are you in 11.04 unity? | 05:00 |
|---|
| Skudd | 11.04, but not unity | 05:00 |
|---|
| bazhang | Skudd, what window decorator are you using | 05:00 |
|---|
| Skudd | i honestly can't remember and it's late enough in the day that i don't even remember how to check... i'm just trying to get a server migration done so i can get to bed :-/ | 05:01 |

|---|
| wsagent | pls need help: "docky requires compositing to work pls enable compositing and restart docky" | 05:04 |
|---|
| bazhang | afeijo, its a clone, so it will copy everything | 05:04 |
|---|
| bazhang | wsagent, alt f2 compiz --replace does what | 05:05 |
|---|
| afeijo | bazhang, here what ubottu sent me "To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing)" | 05:05 |
|---|
| afeijo | replicate packages dont sound as a full copy | 05:05 |
|---|
| fenjamin | bazhang: pdfedit is hard to use! | 05:06 |
|---|
| bazhang | afeijo, yes, thats different than clonezilla , which I also said | 05:06 |
|---|
| fenjamin | the UI is nuts | 05:06 |
|---|
| goetter | how painful is it to upgrade from ubuntu 8 to 10? | 05:06 |
|---|
| goetter | or 11... | 05:06 |
|---|
| wsagent | bazhang if i do that my theme get screwed | 05:06 |
|---|
| afeijo | bazhang, ubottu knows nothing about clonezilla | 05:06 |
|---|
| bazhang | goetter, which version of 8, there is not an 8 | 05:06 |
|---|
| goetter | hardy. 8.04 | 05:06 |
|---|
| bazhang | afeijo, thats right, go to their website | 05:06 |
|---|
| bazhang | !upgrade | goetter please read this | 05:07 |
|---|
| ubottu | goetter please read this: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 05:07 |
|---|
| wsagent | bazhang: what i am doing now is , sudo metacity --replace and logout & login | 05:07 |
|---|
| bazhang | wsagent, there is no reason for sudo there | 05:07 |
|---|
| bazhang | wsagent, use alt f2 | 05:07 |
|---|
| goetter | Is there no upgrade path from 8.04->10.04? | 05:08 |
|---|
| afeijo | bazhang, nice, I will test it | 05:08 |
|---|
| bazhang | goetter, you read the link? yes there is | 05:08 |
|---|
| afeijo | bazhang, I will purchase another 1 tb HD, not the same model, no problem right? | 05:08 |
|---|
| bazhang | afeijo, how can I guarantee that? thats hardware so no idea | 05:08 |
|---|
| afeijo | hehe | 05:08 |
|---|
| afeijo | I'll copy my linux partitions and see what happens | 05:09 |
|---|
| wsagent | bazhang: I did compiz --replace and my its refresh everything on my desktop | 05:09 |
|---|
| goetter | Link mentions 8.04 LTS only (Hardy Heron). I don't think I have Hardy Heron because I've never heard the word Heronbefore. | 05:09 |
|---|
| bazhang | wsagent, so restart the dock now | 05:09 |
|---|
| nezZario | why does it say there is no such device eth0 | 05:09 |
|---|
| nezZario | when i clearly have an eth0 | 05:09 |
|---|
| nezZario | when I, # ifup eth0 ? | 05:09 |
|---|
| bazhang | nezZario, what is "it" | 05:09 |
|---|
| nezZario | ubuntu. | 05:10 |
|---|
| dli | afeijo, like 'rsync -avxAH', you need to correct UUIDs after that, in /etc/fstab and grub | 05:10 |
|---|
| goetter | Also, this will need to be entirely commandline; the server is headless. | 05:10 |
|---|
| wsagent | bazhang : thanks a lot | 05:10 |
|---|
| bazhang | nezZario, first, its very hard to read when you hit enter every two words, second, why are you root | 05:10 |
|---|
| goetter | Without optical drive. | 05:10 |
|---|
| nezZario | well I put the # in there for demonstration purposes | 05:10 |
|---|
| bazhang | goetter, then read the server instructions on the link | 05:10 |
|---|
| goetter | Hmm.. | 05:12 |
|---|

| nezZario | i'm really confused now.. | 05:17 |

| nezZario | well, the ubuntu installer appeared to download packages from the network configuration I gave it | 05:17 |
|---|
| nezZario | it booted, and I have no network | 05:18 |
|---|
| nezZario | and it's acting like I'm lying to it when I'm attempting to bring up the network | 05:18 |

| dibblego | is there a command to change the country code used in /etc/apt/sources.list? | 05:30 |
|---|
| HackNewton | hi all | 05:31 |

| bazhang | dibblego, a command? like sed? | 05:31 |
|---|
| dibblego | bazhang: wasn't sure if there was anything more specific than sed | 05:31 |

| bazhang | dibblego, much easier to select in synaptic package manager | 05:31 |

|---|
| bazhang | dibblego, you could certainly edit the sources.list that way though | 05:32 |

| === plustax is now known as RAGEsauce |
| abhijeet | wsagent_, it completly depend on your machine.. I did the upgrade from the 10.10 to 11.04 and unable to boot to the machine.. If you hate unity or do't want to redo all the installation, I will suggest to stick to 10.10. | 06:00 |
|---|
| abhijeet | it's my personal opnion | 06:00 |
|---|
| wsagent_ | abhijeet: really i hate unity and Love ubuntu 10.10 and just wondering is there any possibility to disable the distro upgrade reminders | 06:01 |
|---|
| vikapi | ubuntu will stick on to unity or will they upgrade to gnome 3? | 06:02 |
|---|
| brainwave92 | gnome 3 i guess? shouldnt they? | 06:02 |
|---|
| abhijeet | vikapi, ubuntu will have unity as default but gnome 3 will be there | 06:03 |

| Omega | vikapi: 11.10 uses gnome 3 | 06:03 |

| DizzyLizzy | Fresh install of 11.04. How do I turn off this bleeding eye-candy | 06:07 |
|---|
| DizzyLizzy | I can't find any compiz or desktop-effects settings anywhere | 06:07 |
|---|
| joako_ | As far as I can tell there's no easy way to make Ubuntu run in text-only mode, is that correct? | 06:07 |
|---|
| Besogon | Anybody! Does anyone know What the samba-client package is for? I know cold answer that it is a virtual package, but what it actually can do? What is the difference between it and the samba package? | 06:07 |
|---|
| HackNewton | joako_, you are wrong ! but depend on your ubuntu expertise this task may be easy or hard for you | 06:09 |
|---|
| eagleserver | Besogon, as far as i know samba is the actual server and samba client is so you can log onto windows fileservers | 06:09 |
|---|
| Besogon | I'm interest if samba-client package allows make shares? | 06:10 |
|---|
| joako_ | HackNewton, In EVERY OTHER linux you can type "init 3" or "telinit 3" to go to commandline only/ no graphics mode. From what I've been able to gather, it seems the closest in Ubuntu is to RESTART with the kernel flag "text" | 06:10 |
|---|
| Besogon | eagleserver, | 06:10 |
|---|
| joako_ | Besogon, No it's the client. You would want the samba server to do that. | 06:10 |
|---|
| nezZario | where would I get the source for the 2.6.32-29-generic kernel? | 06:10 |
|---|
| eagleserver | DizzyLizzy, install ccsm from packet manager | 06:10 |
|---|
| lintux | joako_: not sure how to go back gui but alt -f2 | 06:11 |
|---|
| Besogon | joako_, ok. then I'll use samba server | 06:11 |
|---|
| joako_ | lintux, But the entire point is I am running ubuntu inside a virtual machine. I want to disable the GUI to save memory. Pressing alt-f2 will only swtich to a text console, the gui is still running. | 06:11 |
|---|
| lintux | oh | 06:12 |
|---|
| nezZario | well, what's the funny little name for ubuntu 10.04 ? | 06:12 |
|---|
| brainwave92 | joako_ you can use recovery mode | 06:12 |
|---|
| nezZario | hardy, lucid, ? | 06:12 |
|---|
| brainwave92 | Maverick meerckat | 06:12 |
|---|
| brainwave92 | ? | 06:13 |
|---|
| joako_ | brainwave92, But why do I need to reboot the system. In every other linux you can stop and start the GUI at will. | 06:13 |
|---|
| jlindstorff | joaka_: If you can do a new install then use the server version and install minimal-virtual | 06:13 |
|---|
| brainwave92 | jlindstorff, its gonna be simpler than that! | 06:14 |
|---|
| brainwave92 | joako_ i did a hack once to start in cli and switch to gui when i want | 06:14 |
|---|
| brainwave92 | what i did then was move the script which started the gdm out of its folder... | 06:14 |
|---|
| brainwave92 | and all i needed to do to run the gui was start the script | 06:15 |
|---|
| * Kreative` is away: Away | 06:15 |
| brainwave92 | i bet even ubuntu has an easy system to d othat | 06:15 |
|---|
| brainwave92 | nezZario, lucid lynx it seems | 06:16 |
|---|
| zykotick9 | joako, "sudo service gdm stop" to stop it temporarily. What version of Ubuntu are you running (not sure it matters)? Check the file /etc/init/gdm.conf and see if you can disable the upstart process from there (not sure it applies/works). | 06:16 |
|---|
| nezZario | uh, seriously? | 06:17 |
|---|
| nezZario | where do I find kernel sources for this kernel, 2.6.32-29-generic ? | 06:17 |
|---|
| nezZario | kernel.org doesn't have it | 06:17 |
|---|
| eagleserver | nezZario, should be able to get them with apt-get | 06:19 |
|---|
| zykotick9 | joako, you might be able to disable gdm by renaming the init script, like /etc/init/gdm.conf to /etc/init/gdm.disabled something else to test anyways. | 06:19 |
|---|
| nezZario | eagleserver: any idea what the kernel source pkg's look like? e.x apt-get source ...?? | 06:20 |

| bobweaver | nicofs, do you have two wireless cards? | 09:01 |

|---|
| ikonia | iceroot: seems to be the way development is going | 09:01 |
|---|
| iceroot | ikonia: any alternatives? (not vmware, vbox) | 09:02 |

| crackerjackz | brainwave92, sorry | 12:24 |
|---|
| MercyboxMonium | just i avoided 10.04 because i heard there were 'issues' | 12:24 |
|---|
| pooltable | crackerjacksz ok | 12:24 |
|---|
| coz_ | MercyboxMonium, I dont believe so | 12:24 |
|---|
| MercyboxMonium | clean install it is then | 12:24 |
|---|
| brainwave92 | Neither do i......like what? There are issues with every distro. | 12:24 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | pooltable, i goofed again.. type this instead | 12:24 |
|---|
| szal | Pwnna: what's the exact OS? you don't mention that anywhere | 12:24 |
|---|
| pooltable | crackerjacksz went back to the blank line but will wait this time | 12:24 |
|---|
| Pwnna | anyone want to help be find a potential kernel bug (suspected) that's really really bad (eats up the memory by caching them and not releasing it when program needs to allocate them, at least that's suspected)? Link: http://askubuntu.com/questions/51785/swap-shoots-to-100-after-a-couple-of-hours-of-usage | 12:25 |
|---|
| coz_ | MercyboxMonium, that is always the preferred way :) then you can be sure,, if anything is buggy , that it was not cuased by an upgrade glitch | 12:25 |
|---|
| Pwnna | szal: there ^^^^ | 12:25 |

|---|
| coz_ | MercyboxMonium, not su rprising | 12:26 |
|---|
| Pwnna | 64bit | 12:26 |

| MercyboxMonium | clean install means backing up and all that though and i am extremely lazy | 12:26 |

| === jvgeli is now known as Natty |
| coz_ | MercyboxMonium, but in the end you will see that it was worth the effort and maybe condition you to back up as you go along | 12:27 |
|---|
| szal | that's obviously a non-standard kernel; try the stock kernel instead | 12:27 |

| J0hnDoe | hi everyone - I currently have a few computers which are spare and arent being used - could anyone giveme some suggestions for what I could use them for ? | 12:28 |
|---|
| MercyboxMonium | hehe coz_ did i mention just how lazy? ... nah i think i knew the answer, and i reckon it does the old system good to completely nuke the disks and start afresh | 12:28 |

| omegaphi | hi, if I save the root.disk file from my wubi installation and then do a fresh wubi installation and then overwrite the existing root.disk with saved one. Would it save my data? | 12:29 |
|---|
| Hedgehog456 | my webcam has no batteries, but it still appears to work | 12:29 |
|---|
| coz_ | MercyboxMonium, I believe it does,,and if you want to really clean up the disk before installation ,, download Dban and writ zeros to the drive,, depending on t he drive size, however it can take hours | 12:29 |
|---|
| HelpWithNatty | what does it mean when my PC freezes and the caps lock light is blinking? | 12:29 |
|---|
| brainwave92 | HelpWithNatty, dont repeat so quickly! | 12:29 |
|---|
| MercyboxMonium | it's just a good few hours of configuring and tweaking | 12:30 |
|---|
| brainwave92 | Anyone who knows the answer will tell you, else you have to wait buddy | 12:30 |

| shawny | Goodmorning room! I was hoping to get some info on DNS. Specifically, how do I get my own name servers to serve my internal names, and default to my ISPs nameservers if they [my server] doesn't have a listing | 12:32 |

| crackerjackz | i'm just gonna reinstall ubuntu if i can't get rid of it | 12:32 |

| MercyboxMonium | looks good coz_ thanks :) | 12:32 |

| coz_ | MercyboxMonium, no problem,, keep Dban around it comes in handy | 12:33 |
|---|
| shawny | I read about views, but I don't have anything I want to serve on an external dns | 12:33 |
|---|
| oCean | crackerjackz: It's dependencies issues. Result of removing some but not all packages. There's lots of hints when apt fails (like "try apt-get -f install") and such. I suggest you follow those suggestions | 12:33 |

|---|
| DistroJockey | HelpWithNatty: Can't really suggest anything sorry. Depends how you are/were running it, etc. | 12:34 |
|---|
| coz_ | MercyboxMonium, yes that would be wise,, also you may conisder the minimal install cd,, it downloads from the net | 12:34 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | oCean, what is apt-get -f install? | 12:35 |
|---|
| HelpWithNatty | DistroJockey: do you think running the LTS 10.04 version will make it more stable? | 12:35 |

| coz_ | MercyboxMonium, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 12:35 |
|---|
| brainwave92 | HelpWithNatty, does it happen everytym? | 12:35 |
|---|
| coz_ | MercyboxMonium, it is only 19 megs and little change of packet collisions and corrupt iso images... at some point you will get a list of what can be installed,, arrows to scroll the list and the "Space" bar to tick a box | 12:35 |
|---|
| DistroJockey | HelpWithNatty: No idea sorry. | 12:35 |
|---|
| HelpWithNatty | brainwave92: very often. Im thinking it could be a kernel module | 12:35 |

| crackerjackz | oCean, it errored out.. http://pastebin.com/jL7QLnGa | 12:36 |

| brainwave92 | HelpWithNatty, it could be a kernel problem if caps lock is blinking. What distro are you running? And what is the output of uname -r? | 12:36 |
|---|
| shawny | hmm, perhaps I should look for a more specific room | 12:37 |

|---|
| brainwave92 | HelpWithNatty, then you already have a proper kernel. If you go to 10.04 i doubt things would improve. | 12:37 |

| coz_ | theToff, another thing to try is install an earlier version of ubuntu ,, see if the temps continue to rise | 12:57 |
|---|
| omegaphi | lotuspsychje : I am on the same computer, and from the live cd I was able to access the HD | 12:57 |

| brainwave92 | theToff, my hard disk is 118.4 . From what you say...that is a problem | 12:57 |

| crackerjackz | oCean, then it goes on to say.. you can help the developers to fix the package by reporting the problem... clicks on report problem again | 12:57 |

| coz_ | theToff, however here,, 11.04.. the only thing I noticed is increase in ram useage not much in temps of hard drive or video card | 12:58 |

| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 349469 in debconf (Ubuntu) "debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable" [Medium,Triaged] | 12:58 |
|---|
| oCean | crackerjackz: is the debconf / frontend process running atm? | 12:58 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | pooltable, send me the guide you're following again | 12:59 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | did the last command i give you work? | 12:59 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | oCean, how do i tell if it is running again? | 13:00 |
|---|
| oCean | crackerjackz: ok, it seems there's a common debconf issue in that bug | 13:00 |
|---|
| oCean | crackerjackz: please run fuser -v /var/cache/debconf/config.dat again | 13:00 |
|---|
| lotuspsychje | rugnur: what your prob with partitions? | 13:01 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | oCean, should i run sudo dpkg --configure -a first? | 13:01 |
|---|
| oCean | crackerjackz: nope | 13:01 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | oCean, when i type that command it returns no output.. it just takes me back to the command line | 13:02 |

| haunted85 | Hi everyone I'm a ubuntu 10.10 user and my numeric keypad no longer works... can anyone please help me with that? | 13:02 |

| rugnur | hi lotuspsychje basically, if you have a look on /dev/loop0 I have not space, while in /deve/sda5 there are 26 Gb free...I don't understand why appear a message saying:"you have 96 Mb only" | 13:03 |
|---|
| pooltable | crackerjacksz i not sure where do i fine the file? | 13:03 |
|---|
| oCean | crackerjackz: ok, it seems debconf/frontend is not running currently. Now run sudo rm /var/cache/debconf/* to clear that cache, and hopefully to prevent it from failing again | 13:03 |
|---|
| lotuspsychje | rugnur: try to install gparted and pysdm to understand what partitions you have | 13:04 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | pooltable, VBoxMange convertdd /tmp/nameofimage.bin nameofimage.vdi | 13:04 |

| crackerjackz | oCean, now try to remove lamp or should i run apt-get -f install first | 13:06 |
|---|
| lotuspsychje | brb | 13:06 |
|---|
| oCean | crackerjackz: you removed the cachefiles? Then first sudo dpkg --configure -a and see if there's any output | 13:06 |
|---|
| pooltable | crackerjacksz co comand VBoxMange ? | 13:06 |
|---|
| oCean | pooltable: VBoxManage | 13:06 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | oCean, yup cleared the cache with that command you gave me.. it returned no output so i guess that means it worked aye? | 13:07 |
|---|
| oCean | crackerjackz: no try sudo apt-get -f install again | 13:07 |
|---|
| pooltable | ocean yes | 13:07 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | oCean, i think its gonna work this time :) it says please choose webserver that should be automatically configure to run phpmyadmin | 13:08 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | pooltable, what is the name of your image again? | 13:09 |
|---|
| pooltable | crackerjacksz still lost here not even sure if the converrt work | 13:09 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | pooltable, paste bin me the output of everything youve done regarding that and ill look over it | 13:09 |
|---|
| oCean | crackerjackz: ok, we're now actually getting somewhere? Once it's done, you still have to remove the lamp packages | 13:09 |
|---|
| onca | how do I prevent ubuntu from ugrading my kernel unless I compile it myself? | 13:10 |
|---|
| oCean | crackerjackz: once the -f install is done, check pt-cache policy php5-common mysql-server-5.1 apache2.2-common | 13:11 |

| ubottu | onca, please see my private message | 13:11 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | oCean, awesome lamp is gone i'm pretty sure.. but how do i make certain that it is completely removed from the system.. i odn't want it to leave any config files behind or anything because i'm going to be reinstalling it | 13:11 |
|---|
| oCean | crackerjackz: see my previous command | 13:11 |
|---|
| onca | awesome cool bot too | 13:11 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | oCean, i ran apt-get remove name of every package that has to do with lamp | 13:12 |
|---|
| oCean | crackerjackz: ok, but remove does not remove configuration completely. You might have to run apt-get purge <list-of-those-packages> again | 13:13 |
|---|
| omegaphi | lotuspsychje : I have windows and ubuntu via wubi, I can see everything but the root.disk file from live cd | 13:13 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | oCean, okay also did you mean ept-cache rather than pt-cache? | 13:13 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | or perhaps apt-cache | 13:13 |
|---|
| oCean | if you mean apt rather then ept, then yes, I meant apt :p | 13:13 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | ;p | 13:14 |
|---|
| onca | how might I clean up my system before I back it up? | 13:14 |
|---|
| oCean | crackerjackz: ok, to be sure, run dpkg -l | egrep '(apache2.2-common|mysql-server-5.1|php5-common)' | 13:14 |

| Dasc | anyone know how to downgrade linux headers? | 13:26 |
|---|
| oCean | venol: you have to be sure it's executable, and that the cron can find the path to the program. Check /var/log/syslog for failed cron jobs | 13:26 |
|---|
| venol | oCean: Ok.. | 13:26 |

| oCean | Dasc: downgrade? | 13:27 |

| bazhang | spitzi, its not supported here. do what you wish, just dont ask for our support | 13:28 |
|---|
| spitzi | Surely there's some working repository for jaunty still somewhere. | 13:28 |
|---|
| bazhang | spitzi, no, there is not | 13:28 |
|---|
| oCean | Dasc: if you're building anything against your current kernel, you need the current headers version also | 13:28 |
|---|
| Dasc | oCean: updated my ubuntu and it seems to stopped allowing me to login via gnome :( | 13:28 |
|---|
| oCean | Dasc: that has nothing to do with -headers, if you want to boot into an older kernel, do so via grub menu | 13:28 |
|---|
| bazhang | spitzi, see the eolupgrades link in the link you got | 13:28 |

| oCean | crackerjackz: you you might have to look for those remaining configs in /etc (sub)directories yourself | 13:34 |

| remoteCTRL | i got this strange phenomenon that apeears to be copy protection related: when i insert an audio cd with a children's play on it, ubuntu suggests i open it with banshee which i dont as it crashes but i would like to see its contents so i choose nautilus, but then i get: Could not display "cdda://sr0/". i dont even get to see it when i use the mount command, also there is no entry for cdrom in /etc/fstab, nor a cd or dvd device in /dev but vlc DOES | 13:34 |

| szal | MikeTG: how does it crash | 13:34 |

| NeedHelp_ | Sidewinder1: I'm not asking about switching to classic | 13:35 |
|---|
| ronqbc | can i make skype not to appear in the task bar? | 13:35 |
|---|
| oCean | Dasc: ok, I have no clue why you cannot login. But I can tell you it's not the -headers update. But if -headers whas updated, then the linux-image (kernel) was updated also (likely) so you should be able to boot into the previous kernel | 13:35 |
|---|
| MikeTG | <szal> thanks for asking, it just hang up. All I've to to is to turn it off | 13:35 |
|---|
| szal | remoteCTRL: VLC does what? | 13:35 |
|---|
| oCean | crackerjackz: it's a purge option. You can read details in the man dpkg page | 13:35 |
|---|
| szal | MikeTG: sounds like a hardware problem | 13:36 |

| rugnur | hello ubuntu says that there are only 130 Mb of space, and I don't know what to do considerating that the space is 29 Gb and 15Gb are unused, and it's installed in windows... | 13:37 |
|---|
| remoteCTRL | szal: if i choose to play the cd with vlc from within ubuntus "what shall i do with the media that you just inserted" dialog, then it plays! if i open vlc and click on the "file" menu then open location or open file i get the Could not display "cdda://sr0/". error | 13:37 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | Dasc: as a test - use the console to make a new user. see if the newly made user works. | 13:37 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | rugnur: you used a wubi type install in windows? | 13:37 |
|---|
| maahes | rugnur→ you probably have a weird runaway log file. If you know how to use the terminal: go to /var/log and run du | 13:37 |
|---|
| szal | MikeTG: overheating -> install lm-sensors and some monitoring tool for whatever UI you use; if it overheats, open case & clean fan(s) and heatsink(s) (can't hurt anyway) | 13:37 |
|---|
| remoteCTRL | szal: also i cannot seem to figure out where ubuntu nowadays actually mounts the cdrom drive to as there a re no entries in fstab, nothing in /media, nothing in /dev, i'm confused! | 13:38 |
|---|
| szal | MikeTG: could be RAM -> run memtest86+ w/ as many passes as possible | 13:38 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | remoteCTRL: normally /media/VolumeNameOfTheCD from what ive seen | 13:38 |
|---|
| szal | remoteCTRL: afaik, audio CDs are not mounted | 13:38 |
|---|
| oCean | Dasc: I'm sorry, but I really have no clue why that happens. You can search launchpad (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu) for known bugs. Or try to boot in older linuxkernel (press and hold shift during boot to enter the grub men) | 13:39 |
|---|
| oCean | *menu | 13:39 |
|---|
| remoteCTRL | Dr_Willis: that is exactly what i was hoping for, but thre is just nothing there! yet vlc plays it! | 13:39 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | correct - you do not mount audio music cds | 13:39 |
|---|
| szal | MikeTG: could also be a too weak or failing PSU | 13:39 |
|---|
| Dasc | Dr_Willis: tried making a new user, it allows me to login, but then just stops loading after you've put in the correct password. It has the background image and you can move your mouse around, no right clicks or anything. | 13:39 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | remoteCTRL: audio cd gets accessed directly via the /dev/XXX item | 13:39 |
|---|
| remoteCTRL | Dr_Willis: szal no?? erm... what then? | 13:39 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | remoteCTRL: i dont know what you are trying to do.... | 13:39 |
|---|
| remoteCTRL | Dr_Willis: do you happen to know that /dev/xxx item that could be? cos there is no /dev/cdrom nor /dev/dvd nor anything that would resemble a cd...? | 13:40 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | /dev/cdrom is normally a link to /dev/sr0 here | 13:40 |
|---|
| remoteCTRL | Dr_Willis: well i was listening to an audio play with my daughter, then all of a sudden it ended in the middle, vlc does not recognize any further chapters, so i tried to just look what actually IS on the cd, but i can fugure out no way to just see its contendt, nautilus also says Could not display "cdda://sr0/". | 13:41 |
|---|
| MikeTG | <szal> you could be wright. Under Windoz it uses to turn off automatically. Now I've open the case and put a ventilator on the side ;-). it is traditional but I think it should take care of the heat | 13:42 |
|---|
| MikeTG | ;-) | 13:42 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | remoteCTRL: check dmesg command output perhaps. it may mention some errors | 13:42 |
|---|
| cinnabar12 | anyone know how to get a rt3090 wifi card working in natty? | 13:43 |
|---|
| remoteCTRL | Dr_Willis: ok, the /dev/sr0 hint was already wery nice, could you also tell me with what filesystem option i should mount a cdrom? like -t ext4 or -t iso99somthing? | 13:43 |

| RandomCake | Hi, I'm having troube with mutt, my command is 'mutt -s "email subject" -a data.txt tom@example.com < hello.txt', but it gives this error: 'Can't stat tom@example.com: No such file or directory', any suggestions on where I'm going wrong? | 13:43 |
|---|
| llutz_ | RandomCake: mutt -s "email subject" -a data.txt -- tom@example.com < hello.txt | 13:45 |
|---|
| remoteCTRL | i really can't recall when i ever had to do this manually... | 13:45 |
|---|
| RandomCake | thanks very much llutz :) I just found it on a forum! always the way, spend ages searching, and as soon as I ask, find it elsewhere aswell :) | 13:46 |
|---|
| llutz_ | RandomCake: "man mutt" 4 seconds to find :) | 13:46 |
|---|
| remoteCTRL | Dr_Willis: erm... dmesg throws like a ton of errors... | 13:46 |

| Mamed | hello | 13:47 |

| RandomCake | yeah, silly me trusting online documentation before man! | 13:47 |

| PhonicUK | hey all - I'm installing 10.04 LTS x64 on a machine that already has Windows 7 installed for a dual boot setup, however the "Install them side by side, choosing between them each startup" option is missing - it wants to either use the entire disk or use manual partitioning (which won't let me resize the windows partition) | 13:47 |

| remoteCTRL | Dr_Willis: mostly keeps repeating the same thing over and over, like these 5 lines: http://nopaste.info/e090de0d3e.html | 13:48 |
|---|
| remoteCTRL | is that copy protection related? | 13:49 |
|---|
| cinnabar12 | bazhang: I've looked there before, the workaround that's posted doesn't work | 13:49 |

| Mamed | hi guys i have a problem with ubuntu. When i log on nothing is showing up except whats on the desktop. And Ctrl+Alt+T and Alt-F2 dont work i have been able to go around it and open the folder with all the applications so i can still opn terminal that way but i dont know what to do. If i log in to ubuntu without any special effects it works fine. | 13:51 |
|---|
| ronqbc | PhonicUK, landl | 13:51 |
|---|
| cinnabar12 | bazhang: I've tried that too but oddly it either works for one run session and then on next startup it doesn't or it causes a kernel panic | 13:51 |
|---|
| astraljava | ronqbc: Could you please pastebin the output of `ping -c 50 www.google.com` | 13:51 |
|---|
| PhonicUK | ronqbc, wow - where are you that it's that bad? | 13:51 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | Mamed: so that points to it being a compiz or unity related issue. | 13:51 |
|---|
| astraljava | ronqbc: That will let us know whether there are packets dropping on the way. | 13:52 |
|---|
| bazhang | cinnabar12, thats all I can find presently, sorry | 13:52 |
|---|
| edbian | Mamed: Are you using unity or ubuntu classic? | 13:52 |
|---|
| astraljava | ronqbc: Otherwise, that connection shouldn't be the cause of such a delay. | 13:52 |

| onca | where are modules selected to be loaded, how do I remove some? | 13:52 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | !blacklist | onca | 13:52 |
|---|
| ubottu | onca: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist.conf and add « blacklist <modulename> » to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type « sudo update-initramfs -u » | 13:52 |
|---|
| stercor_ | My mouse is stuck. What process should I look for and kill? Or does it require a reboot? | 13:52 |
|---|
| onca | thankyou | 13:52 |
|---|
| ronqbc | astraljava, how much time should the process take? | 13:53 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | stercor_: you could try going to the console and restatting the X session. 'sudo service gdm restart' | 13:53 |
|---|
| edbian | onca: It's all in kernel code. When the system boots the hardware is scanned and proper modules are selected for you from a long list of available ones. | 13:53 |

| szal | remoteCTRL: copy protection can have weird effects.. I have some copy-protected CDs, and everytime I insert one it shows a different number of tracks, so I can be lucky to have the whole CD showing, or nothing at all, or anything in between | 13:53 |
|---|
| astraljava | ronqbc: The '-c 50' option means "try 50 times", and it pings once a second. | 13:53 |
|---|
| stercor_ | Dr_Willis: Thanks. I'll do just that. | 13:53 |
|---|
| cinnabar12 | bazhang: if it does happen to work and I add the PPA to my sources.list do you think it would still work if I did an upgrade to Oneiric when it comes out? | 13:53 |
|---|
| Mamed | ya i happened after i installed ccsm and then i crashed and restarted and i when into classic and everything works fine there and i uninstalled ccsm and went back to notmal ubuntu and it was the same problem and i went back into classic again and installed ccsm again thinking that maybe maybe i could go back to the default settings but everything is already on default and it still isnt working | 13:54 |

| remoteCTRL | szal: hehe weird... yet still you are one step ahead of me, cos i don't even get to see the tracks -.- | 13:54 |
|---|
| ronqbc | astraljava, will it be sufficient to make it just 20? | 13:54 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | Mamed: there was no need to uninstall ccsm. it just tweaks the compiz settings.. | 13:54 |
|---|
| astraljava | ronqbc: If it's a really bad case, probably. | 13:54 |
|---|
| bazhang | cinnabar12, all PPA are removed upon version upgrade, it will either be included in oneiric, or perhaps the maintainer will make one for oneiric | 13:54 |

| Dr_Willis | Mamed there are some commands to reset unity and compiz back to defaults. I think i got the url bookmarked at -> http://delicious.com/dr_willis | 13:54 |

| onca | ok | 13:57 |

| edbian | onca: What module, for what hardware? (generally the best way is to remove all other possibilities). You can also sudo modprobe it manually | 13:57 |

| savid | Hi, I'm trying to replicate unity's functionality w/o using unity (because it's unstable as hell). I'm using docky + gnome-do for launching, but I really liked the app-menus and maximzed feature of unity (ie, where the window titlebar merges into the panel when maximized). Is there a way to do this? | 13:58 |
|---|
| remoteCTRL | szal: Dr_Willis: anyways, thanks for you'r efforts! | 13:58 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | onca: what issue were you having with the unify reciever? the one i have here just 'works' | 13:59 |
|---|
| onca | My keyboard works fine | 13:59 |
|---|
| onca | my mouse won't | 13:59 |
|---|
| onca | I have three dongles and none of them pair up | 13:59 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | Odd. Mine both worked here.. untill the wife took them. :) | 13:59 |
|---|
| szal | remoteCTRL: can't hurt having a hardware player anyway, especially since they cost almost nothing these days | 14:00 |
|---|
| onca | I have a nifty solar powered keyboard | 14:00 |
|---|
| edbian | savid: The only way I know of is a) install / use unity. b) edit some source code (which is what they did to create unity). I'm not sure of another way. | 14:00 |
|---|
| onca | gotta reboot | 14:00 |
|---|
| edbian | outta batteries for your keyboard? | 14:00 |
|---|
| Utopia_ | any kind soul to help me with an ubuntu server issue? | 14:00 |

| Dr_Willis | nocilis: 'my' packages? what packages... | 14:01 |
|---|
| nocilis | specifically libsdl-dev and liballeg-dev | 14:01 |
|---|
| savid | Skaperen, /sarcasm | 14:01 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | !info libsdl-dev | 14:01 |

| melvincv | Hi. I'm trying to create a dialer. I'm using ADSL modem by BSNL India. It is running in bridged mode. PPPoE somehow fails after some time. I used the DSL tab in the Edit connections box, but I'm unable to connect from a standard user account using GUI. It just says "Wired network: device not managed" Please help me. | 14:01 |
|---|
| ubottu | Package libsdl-dev does not exist in natty | 14:01 |
|---|
| edbian | nocilis: Have you looked at Synaptic -> Edit -> Software Sources ? | 14:01 |
|---|
| nocilis | unforunately, yes | 14:01 |
|---|
| Skaperen | savid: of course, but adding sarcasm to open source projects would be great, IMHO | 14:01 |
|---|
| Utopia_ | Well trying to install ubuntu server on a HP DL380 G4 server but installation only stops after "detecting harware" part.. | 14:01 |

|---|
| edbian | nocilis: sure | 14:02 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | !info libsdl1.2-dev | 14:02 |
|---|
| ubottu | libsdl1.2-dev (source: libsdl1.2): Simple DirectMedia Layer development files. In component main, is optional. Version 1.2.14-6.1ubuntu3 (natty), package size 804 kB, installed size 3444 kB | 14:02 |

| bazhang | goatWalkerZ, on unity? | 14:02 |
|---|
| goatWalkerZ | no on gnome classic version | 14:02 |
|---|
| edbian | Utopia_: Bad place to get stuck. Try removing certain bits of hardware one at a time and booting. Then you'll see which is the problem. Easy first one: hdd | 14:02 |
|---|
| Skaperen | Utopia_: I've found that about 40% of HP models won't work with Linux as is ... but I've also found that some of them will work if ACPI is turned off in BIOS first | 14:03 |
|---|
| nocilis | dr_willis: trying that | 14:03 |
|---|
| bazhang | goatWalkerZ, what does alt f2 metacity --replace do | 14:03 |
|---|
| nocilis | ubottu: umm? so it's installed automatically with libsdl? | 14:03 |
|---|
| ubottu | nocilis: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 14:03 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | nocilis: if trying to compile a package in the repos. you can use the 'build-dep' option in apt to pull in all the ndeede -dev packages also. | 14:03 |
|---|
| Utopia_ | Yea it's horrible place to get stuck, no commadline (working) or anything =( | 14:03 |
|---|
| Utopia_ | only the purple screen =( | 14:03 |
|---|
| savid | edbian, getting unity to a place where it's not buggy will likely take more effort than I'm willing to expend (I gotta pay the rent). | 14:04 |
|---|
| savid | edbian, Like I said, I've got most of the stuff I like about it. I have docky + gnome-do for launching, and I figured out how to get app-menus using the appmenu indicator applet. The only thing left is the maximizing feature. If that's something I can't replicate w/o unity then I'm fine without it. I was just asking here just in case there was something I wasn't aware of. | 14:04 |
|---|
| venol | Excusme, anybody here can show to me, where is the tutorial configuration mailgraph on ubuntu 10.04 | 14:04 |

| bullgard4 | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOME_Keyring: "GNOME Keyring is a daemon application designed to take care of the user's security credentials, such as user names and passwords. The sensitive data is encrypted and stored in a keyring file in the user's home folder." What is the name of this file in Natty? | 14:04 |
|---|
| edbian | savid: There used to be a gnome-applet called maximizer. See if that is still around | 14:04 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | !keyring | 14:04 |
|---|
| goatWalkerZ | bazhang: "compiz --replace" or "metacity --replace" or in other words reloading the window manager or changing the window decorator didn't help | 14:04 |

| ronqbc | http://paste.ubuntu.com/645400/ does this bad? what should i do? | 14:05 |
|---|
| bazhang | goatWalkerZ, which theme and which window-decorator are you using | 14:05 |
|---|
| === agent13 is now known as Guest99091 |
| edbian | savid: They put the feature you're talking about into maximizer and then they moved everything and now call it unity. | 14:05 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | lotuspsychje: cat them all, and pipe it into colortail perhaps. | 14:05 |
|---|
| PhonicUK | robin0800, i just found out its because the hard disk is failing its SMART test and has bad sectors xD | 14:05 |

| PhonicUK | so its refusing to do much | 14:05 |

|---|
| bazhang | goatWalkerZ, I'd see emerald as the issue as its no longer maintained nor supported | 14:06 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | lotuspsychje: some of the files in /var/log dir. I think are 'binary' data. so you dont want to cat them | 14:06 |

| nocilis | hmm - dr_willis... it now seems like I can apt-get libsdl1.2-dev | 14:06 |

| goatWalkerZ | bazhang: so how do I fix this? If I want to remove emerald window manager | 14:06 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | goatWalkerZ: emerald is a window decorator. not a window manager. | 14:07 |
|---|
| lotuspsychje | dr_willis: but i was wondering if logs can be tracked in one central place? | 14:07 |

| nocilis | dr_willis yeah I tried that and it found it, so thanks for your help. It's working now :D | 14:07 |

| Dr_Willis | lotuspsychje: theres so many things taht can be done with logs and logservers its scary.. so proberly can.. but i never need to do it. | 14:07 |

| goatWalkerZ | bazhang: sorry I mean will it be fixed if I remove it | 14:07 |
|---|
| bazhang | goatWalkerZ, not sure, I've never had that issue and not used emerald in several years | 14:08 |

| mrk1 | newbie question: i mounted a second hard drive yesterday after formatting it as ext4. i can see it but it does not let me create any files or folders. It is a permissions problem so i tried chmod in terminal but that is not working either. any advice? | 14:13 |
|---|
| daGrevis | edbian, what do u mean with that? There arent such mega effects in xfce. just simple desktop. and it works, ye. | 14:14 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | mrk1: set the permissions and ownership of the mountpoint to be owned by your user. Or make a directory in the drive/mouintpoint and chown.chmod that. | 14:14 |
|---|
| edbian | mrk1: sudo chown -R you:you /path/to/folder/with/hdd/mounted/in/it | 14:14 |
|---|
| edbian | That was a long path! | 14:14 |
|---|
| edbian | mrk1: That will make you the owner | 14:14 |

| ehnde | i can't get to my files on ubuntu one anymore | 14:15 |

| Gama11 | Dr_Willis: exactly. | 14:15 |

| edbian | daGrevis: What wifi card do you have? What driver are you using? What video card do you have. what driver are you using for that? | 14:15 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | ehnde: you may want to try the #ubuntuone channel | 14:15 |
|---|
| bazhang | ehnde, also try in #ubuntuone | 14:15 |
|---|
| ehnde | Dr_Willis: thanks, i had no idea there was a channel for that | 14:15 |

| xertia | can anyone tell me why 11.04 live recognises my ext usb hdd, but then the installer wont? | 14:15 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | Gama11: you can reset the keyring, and have it use unsafe storage. so it never asks.. if you wanted. it could be 4 differnt apps accessing the keyring at the same time.. ive never had it be an issue | 14:16 |

| mrk1 | dr willis thanks | 14:16 |

| mrk1 | edbian thanks | 14:16 |

| xertia | yep, just used gparted to create ext4 (bootable) and swap partitions on it, then launched installation, get to allocating disk and it wont show up ?? | 14:16 |
|---|
| daGrevis | edbian, i have linksys wusb60n stick. i did all like in this tut - http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-wireless-networking-41/linksys-wusb600n-driver-and-dlink-dwl-ag132-driver-622449/ . i dont know what v0car i have, but its on-board. and no drivers for it. just native for linux. | 14:17 |
|---|
| Skaperen | xertia: I've found that the installer fails on certain partition limits of its own being exceeded | 14:17 |
|---|
| cybervolfe | edbian:it getting disconnected automatically | 14:17 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | Gama11: keyring files are in ~/.gnome2/keyrings/ it seems | 14:17 |
|---|
| mrk1 | edbian i am trying it out now ill let you know | 14:17 |
|---|
| edbian | xertia: Just cause you partitioned it does not mean it's mounted. In fact it means those partitions are probably unmounted | 14:17 |
|---|
| edbian | cybervolfe: what? | 14:17 |
|---|
| lotuspsychje | oCean: so it can harm if i change /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf all seperate lines to /var/log/general or something? | 14:17 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | xertia: ive had cases where ive needed to reboot after repartitioning a disk. for the os to see the new changes. | 14:17 |
|---|
| Skaperen | xertia: did you partition on mbr or gpt format? any partition numbers above 15 ? | 14:17 |

| cinnabar12 | lotuspsychje: I actually get the feeling my network owner has blocked the IP address used by Ubuntu on the network but not Windows unless they'd be the same | 14:29 |
|---|
| lotuspsychje | cinnabar12: you sure you have the right case sensitive key available for that network? | 14:29 |

| ikonia | cybervolfe: my test suggests you are | 14:29 |

| cinnabar12 | lotuspsychje: I tried both upper and lower case, sometimes it's picky sometimes it's not | 14:29 |
|---|
| Skaperen | oCean: the answer that is before the question which asks a different aspect? | 14:30 |
|---|
| lotuspsychje | cinnabar12: did you try a hotspot on same card, are card drivers installed? | 14:30 |
|---|
| edbian | daGrevis: (it is not there) Does the device show up in lsusb ? (this one is shorter) | 14:30 |

| edbian | daGrevis: I'm not really sure why that driver isn't working. The site I linked does not list any documenation so I'm guessing the driver is incomplete. Have a look at rt2x00 it's some graphical tool for the driver we modprobed. If you restart the machine it will be back to how it was before I ran any commands. All we did was insert the rt2800 module and look around a bit. | 15:02 |

|---|
| edbian | Socky_: When you compile from source and install one of things it does it put a file called rtorrent in /usr/local/bin/ and you install using the package manager it replaces that file with one of the exact same name without your customization in there /usr/bin. This conflicts with the name 'rtorrent' So you have to tell the package manager to butt out. | 15:35 |

|---|
| zaxius | i have 10.04 and i want to upgrade to 11.04. it should show up in the update manager, right? even after i checked "show normal releases" i still don't see it. | 15:41 |

|---|
| sadi | dli I already checked my alsamixer there that got my sound card but why it didnt work at my speker ?? | 15:41 |

| BDR | edbian: It's an Intersil 3886 but the adapter is working fine (as in Linux recognizes it and can use it to detect wireless networks) | 15:41 |
|---|
| edbian | zaxius: It should show up after you do that. | 15:41 |
