Why does that help? [00:18] rww: What are you talking about? [00:18] SuperMarioRocks: 00:03 < MicrosoftForTheW> will i get kicked if i spam? [00:18] Hi, my laptop won't connect to my android's 3g wireless network. I have no clue where to begin to fix this problem [00:18] gogeta: good point [00:18] gogeta: you right [00:18] bjornerikk: it reloads the driver. I recommend you add that in /etc/rc.local so that it runs at boot [00:19] willystylee: do you have nomodeset now in that file? [00:19] SitFly: has it ever worked? [00:19] @exutux: ok i put nomodeset in there yea [00:19] ActionParsnip: I will do that, very good idea. Do you have a clue why it needs to be reloaded? [00:19] but how do i save it?

[00:20] willystylee: so read! [00:20] why when i copy files i get error splicing files, file too large [00:20] lool [00:20] willystylee: confirm [00:20] @resno, can u give me the link to the error again? [00:20] and YES [00:20] nnull: are you copying them to a FAT32 partition? [00:20] append? [00:21] Hi. I have ubuntu on a 40 gig partition, and there is a swap partition right after it [00:21] msg ubottu !nomodeset [00:21] faint545: http://dpaste.com/577857/ [00:21] I'd like to expand the size of my partition, but I can't because of that swap being in the way of having a continuous block of data [00:21] ActionParsnip: with this method, do I need to pay for the tethering feature still? [00:21] rww: i am [00:21] is there a solution to this problem? (moving around the swap partition) [00:21] nnull: That would probably be why. FAT32 has a per-file size limit of 4GB. [00:22] oh soab [00:22] thx for the heads up rww. [00:22] welcome [00:22] exutux i just pressed enter and it says [error writing /etc/default/grub: permission denied] [00:22] SitFly: if you were paying for the teathering.. it should just work...

[00:23] willystylee: ok ctrl C [00:23] dr_willis: thank you [00:23] i didnt go into recovery mode [00:23] faint545: i tried to figure this out yesterday... but couldnt figure it out. [00:23] SitFly: no, it will just be routed through [00:24] willystylee: ok exit from that file and retype sudo nano /etc/default/grub [00:24] resno, just a guess but make sure you have the cifs-utils package installed [00:25] willystylee: ctrl X and N [00:25] so i have an sdhc card that mounts as read only [00:25] i can't fdisk it cause it's read only === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [00:25] I can't find the Adobe Flash Local Settings Manager from System -> Preferences even though I have flash 10.3.

[00:26] yes i checked the little write protect switch [00:26] ctmjr: i dont see it in my repos... is it custom? [00:26] willystylee: btw [00:26] 01:55 < willystylee> yes, i did that, i am in my single boot with the nomodeset added, i want to set it permanent [00:26] matlock: flick the switch a few times.. it may start working.. it may noit.

[00:29] faint545: turned up nothing [00:29] willystylee: with Grub on some pcs here. I have to enable its low-res text menu mode. or it tries to go 'out of range' of the cheap monitor i have. [00:29] @resno really? [00:29] willystylee: you need to update grub after modifies [00:29] faint545: yea, its a openvz container... maybe thats why? [00:29] willystylee: heres my /etc/default/grub http://paste.ubuntu.com/652066/ for an example [00:30] @resno, well type "man mount.cifs" [00:30] @resno and see if the manual page comes up [00:30] dr_willis, http://pastebin.com/4Vu2Lnqg [00:30] faint545: yep..

Can not remember what order it is in? [00:34] lol [00:34] worked still tho [00:34] @resno... you say you are running Ubuntu inside of OPENVZ? [00:34] win! [00:34] it stayed [00:34] thanks man :) [00:34] faint545: yes [00:34] @resno, this will answer your question: http://forum.openvz.org/index.php?t=msg&goto=4994& [00:34] TBotNik: both [00:35] faint545: oh.... [00:35] @resno, evidently SMBFS cannot be used inside VE [00:35] TBotNik: tail -f /var/log/syslog for follow it when changes [00:35] @resno, however there are workarounds on that page i believe [00:36] TBotNik: tail -n 20 for last 20 rows and so on [00:36] faint545: thanks. ill look into them [00:36] TBotNik: or less for read all! [00:36] anyone know how I can fix my SDHC so i can partition it?? >> related http://pastebin.com/FgBg2XeG [00:36] does anyone have the System > Preferences > Adobe Flash Player? What is the command line command that starts that settings manager? [00:36] @resno, np. I prolly wont be able to help you any further since i have no experience with openvz [00:36] willystylee: np sir :p [00:37] faint545: thats quite alright, i didnt expect openvz to cause the problem [00:37] faint545: i figured i wdidnt know how to do it [00:37] I've installed sun-java-6, but I can't make it the default (http://pastebin.com/Ne9jXLRA) any tips? [00:38] no one knows how to fix ubuntu's issue reading dirty sdhc cards? [00:38] !webmin | alex-- [00:38] alex--, please see my private message [00:39] !virtualmin | alex-- === raj is now known as cypha-mobile [00:39] or can someone tell me how to pass my sdhc card to virtualbox so i can try formatting it in windows? [00:39] alex--: you still reminding yoruself about webmin? === cypha-mobile is now known as raj [00:39] alex--: :) [00:40] matlock: in line 9, you hosed the filesystem on /dev/mmcblk0p1. run mkfs.ext4.

[00:41] so it would mark it clean and ubuntu would quit marking it as dirty [00:41] is there a way I can make ubuntu ask my router to assign a ipv6 instead ipv4? [00:41] rww, you read my pastebin? [00:41] matlock: yes [00:41] rww, figure for yourself whether or not the write protect is on or not [00:41] bencc: thats your roughter settings not ubuntus [00:41] TBotNik: DHCPOFFER of 192.168.12.50 from 192.168.12.1 who is that .1? === yeagos_ is now known as subsume [00:41] bencc: depends on 2 things - software in the router, and whether isp offers ipv6 [00:42] bencc: ubuntu just ask for a ip [00:42] rww, if write protect was On i wouldn't be able to copy that file to the sdhc in the last few steps [00:42] again /dev/mmcblk1: Read-only file system while setting up superblock [00:42] Blue1: if the router is getting ipv4 from the isp, can't it provide ipv6 for ubuntu? [00:42] matlock: ah, true. [00:43] so it's the driver marking the sdhc as read only because it wasn't cleanly ejected [00:43] bencc: i gues if you tell it to hand out ipv6 localy yes [00:43] now if I could only bypass the drivers mark enough to repartition it. [00:43] bencc: this is a question the isp must answer - cox for instance does NOT currently provide ipv6 [00:43] bencc: In theory, it could provide whatever address scheme it wants inside. The real question is, does your router support ipv6 addressing at all? [00:43] OR pass it to windows in my VM [00:43] exutux: Sorry to confuse you that was from before I disconnected the WRT router, since it was sending those confusing IPs. [00:43] bencc: yes, it can [00:43] bencc: but you relly dont need it [00:43] TBotNik: lol [00:43] Posting new config [00:44] Hey [00:44] bencc: or... hrm, maybe I'm applying IPv4 thought to IPv6. never mind me. [00:44] does Linux have Calibri as a font? [00:44] TBotNik: I have to go now [00:44] I booted up went into recovery then dropped down into root mode [00:44] sorry [00:44] But I can't login? [00:44] My normal username and password don't work [00:44] gogeta: I need to test ipv6 clients against a server [00:44] exutux: Thanks 4 your hlep, I at least now have the right IP range out there. [00:45] how come everybody just doesnt run windows? [00:45] bencc: well then you tell the roughter to hand out local ipv6 adresses if it supports it [00:45] how many people use ubuntu linux? [00:45] SuperMarioRocks: alot [00:45] yellowgto: Did you boot from liveCD? [00:45] I'm trying to get to int3 [00:45] No [00:45] can anyone walk me through fixing my sdhc? THE WRITE PROTECT SWITCH IS NOT ON but it's mounted as read only [00:45] My Ubuntu works fine [00:45] SuperMarioRocks: Canonical alleges 12 million as of April 2010. I don't know of a more recent number. [00:45] But I need to drop down into init3 mode to install some drivers [00:46] gogeta: checking if my linksys support it [00:46] joint: Feel free to ask #ubuntu-offtopic; that's more of an opinion question than something we can answer. [00:46] e [00:46] yellowgto: If you do you can run the chroot and edit the passwrds file and change the root. [00:46] Do you know where the password file lives? [00:46] yellowgto: There are HOWTOs on that, forgot where. You can look or I can. [00:47] I have ubuntu 11.04 on a cd if i wait to next year to install ubuntu 11.04 will i get gnome3 with it or the gnome version that ubuntu 11.04 comes with? [00:47] I've been looking [00:47] yellowgto: I hate to ask annoying questions, but which drivers? [00:47] Says to hit ctl - alt - backspace [00:47] But that doesn't seem to work [00:47] Newest Nvidia driver RWW [00:47] SuperMarioRocks: there is a gnome 3 remix [00:47] probably the gnome version 11.04 comes with [00:47] yellowgto: 1) installing nvidia from outside of the package management interface is a bad idea. 2) ctrl-alt-f1, log in, run sudo service gdm stop (or kdm if you're using Kubuntu). [00:47] but would i get gnome 3 with it if i install next year? [00:48] SuperMarioRocks: http://ugr.teampr0xy.net/ [00:48] SuperMarioRocks: You'll get the version of GNOME that Ubuntu 11.04 comes with. [00:48] i doubt it [00:48] 11.04 has a bug [00:48] Where it wont let you activate drivers [00:48] yellowgto: 3si ? [00:48] thats like getting unity with 10.04 [00:48] yellowgto: ctl - alt - backspace is restart for gnome, not system, so will not reload your passwords file. [00:49] 11.10 ubutnu will only have unity and a 2d unity [00:49] no gnome 3 [00:49] 3si? [00:49] 11.10 will have gnome 3 [00:49] Gnome3 blows [00:49] So it doesn't matter [00:49] gogeta Gnome 3 will be in the repository [00:49] LoL [00:49] ;-) [00:49] gogeta: Considering that Unity is a shell on top of GNOME, that isn't a sensical statement. Ubuntu oneiric uses GNOME 3 and has GNOME Shell in the repositories. [00:49] yellowgto: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [00:49] at least according to the alphas [00:49] How would I go about updating my graphics card? [00:49] rbnswartz: yes its in it now if you whant it [00:49] yellowgto: is it a pontiac or a mitsu [00:50] Pontiac [00:50] rbnswartz: talking defults [00:50] dang [00:50] Newer body [00:50] gogeta: GNOME 3 is not in 11.04's repositories. [00:50] rww: well get the ppa then [00:50] rww it will be in 11.10 [00:50] in the latest alpha for 11.10 gnome 3 is a choice at boot up. but it doesnt work yet [00:50] rbnswartz: I'm aware, I just said that. [00:50] gogeta: I'm not talking about the PPA, I'm talking about Ubuntu itself. [00:50] rww my bad :) [00:50] So that only way to get out of xserver is to change my root password :-/ [00:50] joint: I just read on /. that the boot time is even faster! [00:50] ? [00:51] yellowgto: No, I just told you how to get out of Xorg. [00:51] rww: so did they acully switch to wayland or they still xorg [00:51] gogeta: Xorg [00:51] wayland is still a work in progress... [00:51] heh [00:51] gogeta: as sabdfl said at the time, Wayland is a while off [00:51] long while off i imagine. [00:51] rww: yea but they where claming it to 11.10 [00:52] Writing a graphics server has got to be a huge projec.t [00:52] gogeta: I didn't see sabdfl or anyone "official" say that. [00:52] ls === javier is now known as Jays === raj is now known as cypha`` === cypha`` is now known as raj [00:53] gogeta: But then, it wouldn't surprise me if they never switch. Wayland isn't stable enough and the proprietary vendor support isn't there. [00:53] Hey guys I have Ubuntu 11.04 when tryin to logon using my ubuntu starts up but i only see my desktop icons and wallpaper, however when i used Ubuntu classic everythign loads up fine. [00:53] rww: cannel was claing to switch to it with 11.10 i guess the idea got trashed === Jays is now known as j2bv16 [00:54] rww: good thing as you said its still to early [00:54] gogeta: Again, I didn't see anyone official say Ubuntu would switch to it with 11.10. And I was paying attention :P [00:54] Pin In your Ubuntu classic are you able to enable the compiz visual effects? [00:54] yes [00:54] What we actually say and what the blogosphere repeats in its echo chamber are two rather different things. [00:55] How would I go about updating my graphics card? [00:55] I have desktop cube , desktop rotate etc [00:55] rww: it was like 6 motnhs ago [00:55] rww: shortly after 11.04 [00:55] dont mess with the graphic card drivers [00:55] gogeta: I don't think this conversation is going anywhere if you don't have a link :P [00:55] Pin Try hitting Ctrl+Alt+T and then type compiz --replace [00:55] just install the ones that come with the distro [00:55] rww: http://askubuntu.com/questions/52655/is-wayland-coming-to-ubuntu-oneric [00:56] ok be right back going to login to unity and try it, im on classic right now [00:56] be right back [00:56] gogeta: A random askubuntu thread by people I haven't heard of alleging the same thing you're saying isn't really reliable. [00:56] ... [00:56] rww: it was also in a las ep with a ubuntu dev talking abought it [00:57] rww: ill find the video if you whant to see it [00:57] gogeta: I don't do video, but a transcription would be useful. [00:57] rww: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/551 [00:57] joint, the one that came with the distro isn't working too well with 11.04 natty... Its all glitchy as hell. [00:58] gogeta: I've read that. Where does it say anything about Ubuntu 11.10? [00:58] 11.04 is glithchy by nature [00:58] if you mess up with updating drivers, you can screw your whole system [00:58] rww: well no big deal it ddint happon [00:59] I'm trying to get an IR blaster working on 10.04 and I need to upgrade LIRC, Little help? [00:59] 11.10 will be better [00:59] I want to try 11.10. Would you recommend alpha2 or the daily build? [00:59] ok I tried ctrl + alt + T but nothing happened [00:59] naa. i would wait [00:59] Seven_Six_Two: ask #ubuntu+1 [00:59] no terminal came up at all [01:00] rww, of course. I forgot. Thanks [01:00] no sence in running a beta linux distro. they have a new final one every 6 months [01:00] Pin Sorry that is about all I have for you someone else might be able to help. Or try askubuntu.com. [01:01] Aight back [01:01] updated video drivers should be in 11.10 i would assume [01:01] Pin, what is your problem? [01:01] ok [01:01] you can try to upgrade the video drivers, but its hard. u have to read a lot [01:01] Hey guys I have Ubuntu 11.04 when tryin to logon using my ubuntu starts up but i only see my desktop icons and wallpaper, however when i used Ubuntu classic everythign loads up fine. How do i fix my ubuntu [01:01] they should just make the video drivers so u can just add a ppa or something [01:02] Pin: have you been playing with the compizconfig settings manager? maybe accidentaly unchecked the unity plugin? [01:02] I tried doing ctrl + alt + T under unity and it didnt load up any console [01:02] Yea it got messed up thru compiz [01:02] can you alt-f2? [01:02] i havent tried that [01:03] What do you want me to type when i Alt + f2 under unity? [01:03] Pin: try to start the compizconfig settings manager [01:03] ok be right back going to log out and goto unity [01:03] im in ubuntu classic at the moment be right back [01:03] dont worry about that bug that says the video driver is activated, but currently not in use [01:03] its working if u have the unity interface [01:05] I for one am not fan of the Unity interface at alllllll. why did they change it anyway? [01:06] faint545: They were not fans of the gnome3 interface [01:06] so it was either that or unity? [01:06] Is the 11.10 Alpha 2 any more stable than 11.04? [01:06] faint545: They're trying to have an OS that works well on different form factors [01:06] so they can use it to push software [01:07] faint545: well when they made the decision unity didn't exist. It was gnome3 or 'we build something else' [01:07] unity is tied in the software center [01:07] edbian, what do you mean by "an OS that works well on different form factors" [01:08] Tablet/netbook/desktop/laptop/phone/pocketwatch/cybernetic implant [01:08] ok i was somehow able to make a launcher for my IRC, im back im not in ubuntu classic now. I have terminal open, what do i type? [01:08] faint545: what dr_willis said. Those are examples of different form factors [01:08] ohhhhh. okay. [01:08] Pin: were you able to start the compizconfig settings manager? [01:08] no , how do i start it [01:09] Im so used to how android works on my phone and tablet.. :) unity just seems awkward on them [01:09] cybernetic implant?? [01:09] hey, i need to write some script, - i am a cpp programist, - never used bash before - ive found out already some but i cant find what is the equivalent of the if( abcd < 1 || abcda < 1) im talking about || operator - the -ls i already found out lol [01:09] # [01:09] hi guys I'm getting the following error: "timeout: down: /etc/service/redis_default: 1s, normally up, want up" when I try to run "sudo /usr/bin/chpst -u root /usr/bin/sv restart /etc/service/redis_default" [01:09] meomic: check that advanced bash scripting guide. it has examples [01:09] !abs | meomic [01:09] meomic: Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide, obtainable with ${package-manager} install abs-guide, is a quick and comprehensive guide to bash (command line) scripting in *nix systems. It is also viewable via web at http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/ [01:10] oke thank you guys [01:10] Pin: run "ccsm" [01:10] i think u can put gnome 3 on ubuntu 11.04 [01:10] yay === jmknsd is now known as jakemp-home [01:10] I got it working again [01:10] Thanks! [01:10] :D [01:10] Pin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:11] Pin: ha, you're too excited [01:12] hello? [01:13] I hear you can put Gnome 3 on 11.04 but it breaks Unity [01:15] so if 11.10 going to use Unity? [01:15] *is [01:15] All: Close but no banna. Got my dhcp3-server settings at least put the right IP and range on the eth0, but still it is not serving IPs to the network. Latest PB at: http://pastebin.com/YJKNRXVk I guess after all this I may be the expert on this LOL :) :) [01:15] Of course [01:16] anyone here familiar with LIRC? === ticaozinho is now known as tdutra [01:16] Anyone here know anything bout partitioning? [01:17] Yes [01:17] All: Main thing I noticed that made the biggest change is all the eth0 setting had to be grouped together in the interfaces file. [01:17] Good, I need to resize my Linux partition, but Im not sure how [01:18] Kaleidoscope: Step 1, take good backups. [01:18] Kaleidoscope: also a livecd [01:18] Got the Live CD, No backups =P [01:19] Install gparted from the software center and use that, and definetly back stuff up [01:19] gparted is a good toop [01:19] *tool [01:19] The problem I had was that since my linux partition is mounted, It won't let me change it, Will gparted let me? [01:19] Kaleidoscope: that is why you use a live cd [01:20] Ahh ok [01:20] Why do u want to resize it? [01:20] Makes sense >.> [01:20] does anyone have experience running a windows-ubuntu ad-hoc network? [01:20] I'm moving all my files from my windows partition to my Linux one, Except linux atm only has 40 gigs [01:21] Hm, I would invest in a new hard drive and ina [01:21] And install to that [01:21] Space is cheap [01:21] And u won't mess anything up [01:22] Kaleidoscope: there is another option...just because you have downloaded it does not mean you have to keep it forever [01:22] Hi, would anyone please tell me how does one auto-mount /dev/sda1 on /home/user/sda1 ? [01:22] fstab? [01:22] or am i being dumb? [01:23] nah, fstab would be the way [01:23] hi guys I'm getting the following error: "timeout: down: /etc/service/redis_default: 1s, normally up, want up" when I try to run "sudo /usr/bin/chpst -u root /usr/bin/sv restart /etc/service/redis_default" - could anyone help me out? [01:23] Well I suppose it is indeed fstab but I don't really want to mess it... [01:23] D4rkSilver: you add a line in /etc/fstab [01:23] D4rkSilver.. its pretty simpl.. All you need to do is find the UUID of the disk, and create a line in FSTAB [01:23] I am using lucid lynx. Which package provides the propietary nvidia driver? [01:24] FatsDT: there is more than one. hang on [01:24] anyone have any ideas (about setting up an ubuntu-windows ad-hoc network?)? [01:25] nocilis: not me [01:25] FatsDT: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=nvidia&searchon=names&suite=lucid§ion=all [01:25] @D4rkSilver, the line will look like this: UUID=[ID] [Mount Point] [Type] [Options] [Dump] [Pass]. What is the type of the drive? Ntfs? Ext4? [01:26] I can't find the Adobe Flash Local Settings Manager from System -> Preferences even though I have flash 10.3. Any way to get it there? Is there a command to start it from terminal? [01:26] faint545: does that looks like right? "/dev/sda1 /home/user/sda1 auto rw,auto,exec,utf8 0 0" [01:27] I've got a really dumb question [01:27] Shoot [01:27] is this the same room as the one the freenode server? [01:27] Pyraine: yes. irc.ubuntu.com redirects to chat.freenode.net [01:27] it is the freenode server [01:27] Yep [01:27] D4rkSilver, I personally would use the UUID to identify the disk since naming conventions such as /dev/sd* are not really absolute. they can change. [01:27] *wouldnt [01:28] err.. would lol [01:28] wizardry. [01:28] faint545: ahh I see [01:28] D4rkSilver:I agree with faint545 [01:29] D4rkSilver, but from what you gave me it seems OK. [01:29] Does anyone know if Ubuntu 11.04 works with Mac PowerPC processors? [01:29] Now for my real question... does anybody know of a more up to date HD-Audio-Models.txt than the one that is on www.kernel.org? [01:29] !ppc | ScottyBoy [01:29] ScottyBoy: PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ [01:29] ScottyBoy: Not anymore [01:29] D4rkSilver, to find UUID, simply type... sudo blkid /dev/sda1 [01:29] ScottyBoy: eh, ubottu is more correct than me [01:29] kk then bye [01:29] Guys whats wrong with my Ubuntu! I just fixed my Ubuntu unity thru compiz but now i restarted the computer and my computers resolutions arnt working!!! > screenshot http://i.imgur.com/b7bWY.png [01:30] faint545: kk thanks =) [01:30] hello, my processor can run at 32 and 64 bits, which is the difference between installing 64 or 32 bit linux? [01:30] carlos: 64bit OS allows you use more than 3.2Gb of ram [01:30] or does anybody know of a HD-Audio-Models list which includes the ALC1200 ? [01:30] Bummer for me. LOL [01:30] carlos: ram it can access. for the most part.. a bit of a speed gain in some cases with 64bit [01:31] only a bit speed? [01:31] Thanks, edbian. :) [01:31] ScottyBoy: sure [01:32] be rigth back [01:32] carlos: precisely one bit [01:32] i thought that in order to run 32 bit software on a 64bit system, the os had to provide some sort of virtualization [01:32] carlos: don't quote me I don't know much about hardware, but I'm fairly certain programs developed specifically for x64 systems can use twice as much processing [01:32] Pyraine: what do you mean? [01:33] Guest24725: theres compat. libs that can do it. [01:33] dr_willis: kk [01:33] edbian: do 64-bit applications not use both cores of your processor at the same time? [01:33] Guest24725: but you mean a 32bit app on a 64bit OS... the 64bit cpus out can handle 32bit os's [01:33] two cores* not both cores, you might have more than 2 [01:33] Pyraine: You can have a dual core 32 bit processor [01:34] Pyraine: # of bits and # of cores are not linked [01:34] edbian: yeah, but both cores won't get used by a single application though.. right? [01:34] can I have some problem to install a 64-bit? or may not notice anything? [01:34] Pyraine: depends on how the app is programed [01:34] carlos: ive had very few if any issues with 64bit. [01:34] Pyraine: That does not have to do with 64 or 32 bits either. That's if the programmer wrote the program to be multi-core or not [01:34] carlos: if you have less then 4gb of ram. you can safely use 32bit if you wanted to [01:34] dr_willis: i was asking about a 32bit app on a 64bit machine/os [01:34] Pyraine: most btw do not write for 2 or 4 core processors [01:35] Most multi-core software is for graphics cards which have 100s of cores [01:35] edbian: I see, but you can't get a single core processor to run a 64-bit operating system though, can you? [01:35] i just have 4gb of ram installed [01:35] Guest24725: 64 bit processors can run 32 bit software most of the time flawlessly [01:35] I am thinking that there are not of normally used apps that will be helped by 64 bit but it will lengthen the eol of the computer [01:35] Pyraine: There are single core 64 bit processors [01:35] Pyraine: and they can run 64 bit OSs [01:35] carlos: Then you probably want 64 bit [01:35] edbian: well, I guess you learn something new every day [01:36] carlos: Or you won't be able to use all of that ram (just most of it) [01:36] Pyraine: :) [01:36] ok [01:36] carlos: :) [01:36] How long do you guys think it'll take to defrag a 3TB external USB drive... only 1.9 TB is being used... [01:36] edbian, and and about flash player works fine with 64 bits? [01:37] lapaga: what? [01:37] carlos: flash player works completely fine. [01:37] holy, the weirdest thing. and i have confirmed, My mouse get laggy when im uploading... [01:37] ok ok many thanks to all [01:37] carlos: I don't know first hand. Recent news is that 'yes' flash works fine on 64 bits (just as fine as 32 bits anyway) [01:37] So I've used sysprof to find out that there's a lot of CPU usage in the kernel when display graphics in some SDL games, and it seems a lot of it comes down to on_each_cpu which may or may not be tied heavily to either perf_do_callchain or change_page_attr_set_clr. But, now that I know that, I'm not sure what to do with the information. Any ideas on a good next step? [01:38] I'm a web developer and have made, debugged and run web applications in actionscript 3 on 64-bit systems, so that I can say with confidence. [01:38] Pyraine: :D [01:39] thank you very much again to all, I'll tell you after installing:) [01:39] Hi, have natty+win7 duel boot setup, i unplugged the win7 hard drive last nite, and now cannot boot into linux, re-connected the win7 drive and still no success booting to either, get this error, NTDLR missing, ctr alt del to restart, but just goes in the same loop, any help [01:39] carlos: :D [01:39] edbian: just mean that most apps that the average person uses will not really be helped by using 64 bit over 32 bit...but...as the world turns and things progress 64 bit will probably be the 32 bit of today [01:39] hugs [01:39] lapaga: I agree [01:39] faint545: what filesystem is on the drive? how are you defragging it? [01:39] jamiewan: Can you boot a liveCD ? [01:40] Guys I have Ubuntu 11.04 on a laptop, I have an external flat screen connected to it, Why cant i go over 1024x768 resolution with the monitor? [01:40] dr_willis FS is NTFS. I plan on defragging it using Windows 7's default defragmenter.. [01:40] Hello #ubuntu. How do I add a launcher to the new menu> [01:40] edbian: havent tried, unplugged it to take to mates place to troubleshoot, but thought might be worth running it thru here first [01:40] to be honest I went from a 1GB ram, 1.4GHz processor, 32-bit system, to a 4GB ram 2ghz quad-core 64-bit system, so the improvement was drastic but I don't know how much of it was the hardware improvement and how much of it is the OS improvement [01:40] dabaR: Put the launcher on the desktop. Drag the launcher onto the unity bar on the left. [01:40] @dr_willis or use a 3rd party defragmenter. [01:41] faint545: i tend to use 'mydefrag' on windows. It has differnt levels of defragging. the fast mode. (just move stuff to one end) can proberly do it in a few hrs.. :) 'full complete' defrag - may take a day. :) [01:41] jamiewan: I think when you plugged the HDD back in you didn't tell the bios to boot it. [01:41] edbian: Thanks very much. [01:41] Pyraine: Did you switch OS too? (that's a huge hardware improvement) [01:41] faint545: and you can actually watch its progress.. unlike the windows tool [01:41] dabaR: sure [01:41] dr_willis, thx for the input [01:42] Guys my monitor used to go on very high resolutions, Now ubuntu only lets me go to 1024x768! HELP!!! http://i.imgur.com/b7bWY.png [01:42] edbian: nah, both were dual-boot Win7 and Ubuntu, I just jumped to 64-bit versions of both [01:42] edbian: ok, so go into bios and check that first you think, maybe uncheck fast oot aswell? [01:42] @dr_willis haha, MyDefrag is basically JKDefrag is it not? [01:42] Pyraine: mmm [01:42] jamiewan: call the drives A and B. long shot: your box booted grub from A, when you pulled it your box reset the boot drive to B. putting A back in didn't change it from B back to A becasue there was still a B. [01:42] faint545: from my experience the best and quickest defrag tool for Windows is defraggler [01:42] CarlFK: ok so a quick fiddle in the bios might fix it then [01:43] jamiewan: Fast boot won't change which HDD is being booted. Here's what i think. You had 2 hdds. You pulled one and hte bios was like 'fine then I'll use the other... jerk' and then you put the first one back in and the bios was like 'k... who cares' and keeps trying to boot the other one. [01:43] faint545: has a really light and nice GUI aswell if that matters to you [01:43] jamiewan: And 'the other one' doesn't have an MBR [01:43] Guys my monitor used to go on very high resolutions, Now ubuntu only lets me go to 1024x768! HELP!!! http://i.imgur.com/b7bWY.png [01:43] jamiewan: that woud be my guess [01:43] simple question for anyone that knows the simple answer... why wont the installer (10.04) install the bootloader to /dev/cciss/c0d0? [01:44] Pin: is this since moving to ubuntu? is your graphics card nvidia? [01:44] or is there a way around it? [01:44] So I installed ccsm on Ubuntu 11.04 and i hit the 3d cube option and it asked to enable opengl and compositor (or something like that) and after words it got rid of the window boarders so now there is no exit button, minimize, etc. I have tried to disable what i enabled, reinstalling ccsm, compiz, gnome, and ubuntu-desktop (was to be reinstalled with compiz) and my problem is still not fixed. Anyone have any idea on how t [01:44] o fix it? [01:44] edbian: ok, i'm just aboutto head out with it, if your still about hour or so and i have no luck i'll drop back in ere, cheers guys [01:44] no if was after having issues with compiz, the issues are resolved but now my monitor apears as "unknown" in the monitors section [01:44] faint545: its been renamed. [01:44] and only goes to 1024x768 [01:45] Pin: Have you tried messing with all the resolution options like 'same image' and turning the monitors off / on [01:45] jamiewan: good luck [01:45] <___Alex___> is there any other commands to check for disk integrity other than fsck -f /dev/sxxx ? [01:45] AwesomeMustard: Are you using ubuntu classic? [01:45] ttlycnfuzd|grge: my guess: that's not normal, and so try to keep people from making a mistake. try the Alt installer CD.. it has more partition options [01:45] yep edbian tried that [01:45] Pin: Then I'm not sure :P [01:46] Pin, what resolutions you use to get before [01:46] edbian, yes, i am [01:46] CarlFK: the installer recognises the device, however, when you go to select the device to install bootloader (advanced options), the OK is greyed out... [01:46] AwesomeMustard: Can you open ccsm and edit the things in it? [01:46] ___Alex___, i suppose you could use SMART, but that isn't always reliable [01:46] i used to be able to get up to 1280x1024 on my external monitor [01:47] edbain, yes, but i can't fix the problem by undoing what i did [01:47] Pin: when you were fixing compiz did you follow any tutorials that told you to uninstall any libraries or applications? [01:47] Pyraine no [01:47] *edbian [01:47] <___Alex___> faint545: hmmm.... I've been having issues using rsync with fake 'read only' errors, so I thought running fsck on my disks would help... [01:47] AwesomeMustard: Go to the window decorations plugin in ccsm. Make sure it is turned on. Click on it and tell me what is in the command box [01:47] ttlycnfuzd|grge: huh. plan B: let the installer install grub wherever it wants, boot, and install grub to your.. um.. Ram thing (what is it anyway?) [01:47] ___Alex___, what did the errors say exactly? [01:48] <___Alex___> faint545: I'll have to get it running again after my fscks :) === sparkle_history is now known as sparklehistory [01:48] CarlFK: yea.. ive tried that, but what happens is, I only get the minimal bash shell... [01:49] what sux, I had 10.10 and 11.04 running on here, but they werent the most stable.... [01:49] :( [01:49] ttlycnfuzd|grge: If you want stable use Debian :) [01:49] <___Alex___> faint545: was trying to copy files from one hdd to another, two different computers, same errors... one was direct sata backplane, the other is mounted via usb... I even reset all attributes with chmod -R +r and did the appropriate chowns too [01:49] Guys my monitor used to go on very high resolutions, Now ubuntu only lets me go to 1024x768! HELP!!! http://i.imgur.com/b7bWY.png [01:50] edbian: ok debian huh? im willing to try... does it play well with raid devices upon install? lol [01:50] edbian, where? I can't find a window decorations plugin. I do see a Windows Management section though. [01:50] ttlycnfuzd|grge: No idea. It's extremely stable (because the software is older) [01:50] ttylcnfuzd|grge: don't discount LinuxMint if you want stable! [01:51] ttlycnfuzd|grge: sounds like you didn't get grub installed right [01:51] AwesomeMustard: It's in the effects category. Use the search box if you're having a lot of trouble. [01:51] i discount mint for other reasons.. :) but thats getting OT.... [01:51] AwesomeMustard: It's called Window Decoration and it is definitely there [01:51] CarlFK: yea... i had to manually create the grub.conf, but there is still no devices.map [01:52] and that was after a sudo grub-install... [01:52] edbian, found the option but i don't what you mean by giving you the command? [01:52] ttlycnfuzd|grge: what all do you want on the ram thing? cuz it is sounding like more than just grub [01:52] AwesomeMustard: Is it's box ticked? [01:52] Guys my monitor used to go on very high resolutions, Now ubuntu only lets me go to 1024x768! HELP!!! http://i.imgur.com/b7bWY.png [01:53] edbian, now it is [01:53] AwesomeMustard: click the plugin, there is only one tab (general) and on that tab is a command option. What is in the box for 'command' [01:53] AwesomeMustard: window decorations are the borders you were missing. That was almost certainly the issue. [01:53] Pin - it's poor form to ask so often. give the chan at least 30 min. [01:54] AwesomeMustard: you got same problem i had so i re-installed linux and told myself next time i want to use compiz i will install ubuntu to virtualbox and try settings in that [01:54] mouse: I can fix it for you too! [01:55] edbian, now i know where your talking about the command but i don't know what you want from it. I did enable it though [01:55] mouse: AwesomeMustard btw, unity uses compiz :) [01:55] AwesomeMustard: What is the command in the box? [01:55] CarlFK / edbian - I think that I may try Debian... thanks for the advice.. not sure whats really up, but maybe something in that installer will allow it to run properly..

What would it take to convert to Ubuntu with minimal effort [02:34] I'm assuming I couldn't just install ubuntu over linux mint....right? [02:34] Hickeroar: The only way to convert from Mint to Ubuntu that's supported by this channel is grabbing an install CD and reformatting. [02:34] haha! Is there an unsupported way?

[02:56] cypha: Yes, ther eis a package nautilus-open-terminal [02:56] cypha: nautilus has a scriptig feature to allow that. ive seen examples/tweaks that do exactly that [02:56] cool [02:56] cypha: requires a restart [02:56] dr_willis: mine is better! :P [02:56] 'terminal here' or similer pacgajr i thik [02:56] !wget [02:56] edbian: thx [02:57] alex--: sure [02:57] the netbook is sold with 4 primary partitions, and they are: boot, C:, recovery, and HP-TOOLS [02:57] arthurscience: I've not done it but I'm curious what your real question is [02:57] edbian, that was my next question, thanks :) [02:57] I would like to delete HP-TOOLS so I can make a native linux partition, but I don't want to do anything damaging [02:58] ok, so I have xchat-2.8.8 source downloaded [02:58] cypha: sure [02:58] arthurscience: you will need to remove one to install linux, or somehow covert one to a extended [02:58] i need help: how do i get rid of GRUB bootloader? i just want everything back to my vista partition [02:58] where do I go to write ./configure [02:58] make [02:58] make install? [02:58] in a normal ubuntu install there exists an application under System>Administration>Language Support. I am running a minimial install of ubuntu so this app didnt get installed. Any ideas as to what package i need to apt-get into order to get this? [02:58] jonny: there is some command fixmbr or something. Ask in #windows [02:58] edbian: ty [02:58] I guess my real question is whether anyone is familiar with that HP-TOOLS partition and the purpose that it serves [02:59] arthurscience: deleting the HP-TOOLS partition will do something. I can't promise that it won't break windows. It probably won't but I can't guarantee [02:59] or...if there are any clever ways around the 4 primary limit given my situation [02:59] cypha: in the dir that the file is [02:59] arthurscience: its gotte to a point these days where i always get a 2nd hd for any new laptops to clone the origial hd to it for a backup... saves hassles later [02:59] arthurscience: extended partitions [02:59] scarmichael, sounds like internationalization options [03:00] how big is hp-tools partition arthurscience [03:00] edbian: in order to make an extended partition I have to (at least temporarily) delete one of the primaries though...right? [03:00] csdserver, if you could take a look at the launcher by right clicking it, and read me the program that is launched, that would give me an answer [03:00] dr_willis: it's about 100MB and some change [03:01] arthurscience: I don't know [03:01] scarmichael: what's it called? [03:01] arthurscience: so you could dd image it to a cd for a backup. [03:01] Language support [03:01] arthurscience: be sure to make a recovery dvd set for that laptop also.. make 2 ;) [03:01] dr_willis: dd? [03:01] its under System>Administration [03:01] !dd [03:02] scarmichael: hang on [03:02] dd is a commad [03:02] scarmichael: I found it. Unity won't let me drop it to the desktop [03:02] hang on [03:03] scarmichael, the process starts with gnome-language- still trying to get more info from top [03:03] arthurscience: most likely its some boot tool partitio that you boot from to restore the stuff from the backup partition [03:03] couldn't he just use GParted to resize the C:\, and create the new partition then just make that partition extended? Or am I just completely wrong? [03:03] gnome-language-selector must be it [03:04] scarmichael: the command is gnome-language-selector [03:04] sudocomm: 4 partitions max if they are all primaries [03:04] but not in repos [03:04] darnit! [03:04] Is there (command-line) tool to download such URL and convert the link? Maybe like `wget -Kkp page1?arg=value page2?arg=value` {unfortunately wget doesn't change "&" to "%3F"} [03:04] scarmichael: It's probably part of a package, hang on [03:04] one primary can be an extended that holds logicals [03:04] scarmichael: installing apt-file...

I am a linux newb, and have been solely using Ubuntu now for about 6 months, and in my rookie mind I think it's 'buggy'. It does weird random things, although is more stable on my older desktop than my laptop. [03:06] Trfsrfr: what kind of weird random things? [03:07] scarmichael - let me know if you need to know each individual dependency for language selector [03:07] !meta [03:07] If you would like to help in #*ubuntu* but it just goes too fast to spot interesting questions, try joining #ubuntu-meta and watching for questions there (note that it is NOT a support channel, however, and questions should still be answered in #*ubuntu*) [03:07] None of my browsers are able to connect to the web, but clearly I have a internet connection, anyone have a idea what is going on?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [03:10] Trfsrfr: impedietly shutdown, or it says: shutting down [03:10] djjonex: samba, nfs, ssh/sshfs.. all can do that [03:10] truepurple: try reset firefox to its default settings [03:11] dr_willis: which you recommend ? [03:11] djjonex: learning ssh and how to use sshfs - is very hady [03:11] djjonex: it all depends on the details [03:11] dr_willis: I just need to pass movies lol [03:12] djjonex: Its not firefox, Midori doesn't work either, neither does pinging google.com from a terminal [03:12] If I install xbuntu over my friends ibook g4 wiping the original mac x os what happens if he wants to go back to mac [03:12] ssh/sshfs take 5 min to setup. nfs perhaps 10, samba perhaps 15 ;) [03:12] Is there (command-line) tool to download such URL and convert the link? Maybe like `wget -Kkp page1?arg=value page2?arg=value` {unfortunately wget doesn't change "?" to "%3F"} [03:12] truepurple: what about ping 8.8.8.8 [03:12] alex--, sorry, shut down issues are more laptop related, and I'm aware that its not linux compliant, so its not a huge priority. But what i have noticed between the two is that sometimes random web pages pop up (not porn or pop-ups) that I had visited prior, but had somehow gotten lost. And alt-tab didnt bring them up. [03:12] can I just download a mac x iso [03:13] bananasdoom: You can use the OS X CD that came with the computer. [03:13] trupurple: ur proxy is fucked up [03:13] he dose not have a c [03:13] d [03:13] alex--, its like they got lost, but were still open, just not visible.

Not sure which kernel version 10.10 has. [03:55] Hi - i downloaded the ubuntu 10.04 alternative iso and would like to install a commandline only system, but cannot find any such option when booting from the iso. Where is it hidden? :-) Thanks [03:55] sudocomm: i did upgrade it before ..but lot of issues .. [03:56] !minimal | overrider_ [03:56] overrider_: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [03:56] Northernen: this is my current kernel 2.6.35-30-generic-pae [03:56] maalac: Ah was just wondering [03:56] wrher are you from? [03:56] that bot need a update #ubuntu-hk no longer have anyone XD [03:56] xangua: I got the minimal disk - but its soo slow that after a whole night of downloading its still not done. Cant i do the same thing via the alternative install? [03:57] can someone help me with something that should be easy? i just installed ubuntu and im trying to use ppa to achieve this https://launchpad.net/~couchapp/+archive/couchapp [03:57] overrider_: you just said you had the alternate cd, not minimal [03:57] nope. that didn't help. damn [03:57] overrider_: Any install booted with "text" parameter is Xless [03:57] i mean, im brand new, so perhaps this is really easy but i don't know what to write in terminal... [03:57] maalac, might want to upgrade then. Or just upgrade to 11.04. [03:57] xangua: i tried the minimal yesterday, today got the alternative [03:57] well. I've found a use for my wifi kill switch. is a quick way to restart wifi after scp freezes every couple of hundred megabytes [03:58] oh well. time to file another bug I guess [03:58] Northernen: i did upgrade i have lots problem when i did that ..freezing on bootup .. [03:58] nemo: Is it wifi? [03:58] sublim21: the instructions are on the ppa's web itself [03:59] subanomi1, you can just edit the file itself, don't need to add it through terminal. [03:59] sublim21: sudo add-apt-repository 'ppa's name' [03:59] remember you use a ppa on your Own Risk [03:59] sublim21: what xangua said. click on "read about installing" [03:59] maalac, tried removing pm-utils altogether?

[04:00] So the install commandline system has gone from the alternative iso, and can only be done via the minimal cd? [04:01] qin: only fix is to toggle kill switch forcing switch forcing reconnect. I've done it 3 times in past few minutes [04:01] sublim21: as i can see in that ppa, All packages Failed to Build [04:01] Northernen: dats ok. as long as everything is working. what exactlly do you mean you can't manage it? is this mean i can't do suspend or hibernate / [04:01] nemo: I ment, wifi often cannot (weak router) handle massive traffic, try to reduce bandwith in router. [04:01] xangua: what does that mean? [04:01] that All ppackages Failed to Build [04:01] thats bad isn't it [04:02] no packages [04:02] sooo...this no work then [04:02] sublim21: maybe it isnt supported for the version of ubuntu you are using [04:02] qin: ehmdoubt it. no issues on any other system on this network. [04:02] maalac, you won't be able to see how much time left on battery (I think), and you won't be able to manage suspend or hibernate (at least through GUI, there are probably commands for it). [04:02] qin: also plenty of other reports with this card. [04:02] Northernen: dats ok. i'll probably do that .. [04:03] nemo: Maybe card then. [04:03] sublim21: or the ppa is crap [04:03] uabn93: perhaps. [04:03] Northernen: Thanks a lot ... [04:03] maalac, worth a try. If nothing else, you'll determine whether pm-utils is the culprit or not. [04:03] qin: but I'll doublecheck on the 2nd laptop... [04:04] maalac, no worries. Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance. [04:04] Northernen: thanks .. [04:05] sublim21: i guess youll have to compile it yourself [04:05] qin: also way it hangs seems suspicious for router - all other machines on network are fine, but this one goes completely unresponsive (even to a simple ping) until I disconnect/reconnect [04:06] uabn93: actually, i got it now. there's another method listed on the website with this pip thingy. long story short,its going now. thanks for your help. quick question, how do i copy text quickly in ubuntu? ctr-c, ctrl-shift-c all no work :/ [04:06] nemo: Then your messages and syslog should show it.

[04:19] sagaci: and a text only option exists on it.. somewhere ive heard [04:19] yep [04:20] is anybody there? [04:20] overrider_: no, minimal is the same as alternate, but you download the packages when you install, alternate has the base packages on the iso [04:20] now where ya get to that from is what overrider_ was wanting to learn i think [04:20] dr_willis: great. thanks [04:20] minimal install is just a minimal bootup then eh? [04:20] sagaci: Ok thats why i got the alternate. Now how to install / choose a commandline only system when booting from tha alternative media ? === Reikoku is now known as Rei`ZzZz [04:21] overrider_: it'll ask you through the install if you want to install a desktop environment [04:21] dr_willis: yeah kinda, just gets you to a minimal install where it pulls the packages over the net [04:22] xangua, found something [04:22] xangua, gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist "['all']" [04:22] $VPS.GetNick(14,#ubuntu,297) [04:22] jeffrash_: using all can cause issues....

[04:26] csdserver: sudo service gdm stop [04:26] csdserver: what drivers? ati or nvidia/ ;) [04:26] csdserver: ctrl-alt-f1, login, sudo service gdm stop (or kdm on Kubuntu) [04:26] nvidia =) [04:26] dr_willis, I'd like to stay native unity as much as possible [04:26] you did use the repo drivers first?

[04:28] somthing they should have done to begin with.. ;) [04:29] [snake]: /host, I believe [04:29] that's just thought I'd share what I found as several had said it couldn't be done [04:29] thanks [04:32] woosh, might as well get on this instead while i'm working on it. So that command was `sudo gdm stop`? [04:32] service commad..... [04:33] gdm is a service [04:33] sudo service gdm stop [04:34] might want to make sure your working from a terminal only Ctrl+Alt+F1[F6] [04:34] aha, that's a new distinction for me, i'm slacking off on reading (summer, can't blame me) [04:35] finally got vlc to run as root whoohoo! [04:35] sab0tage: sudo vlc ? [04:36] sab0tage: why on earth woul dyou do that? [04:36] no, unfortunately, vlc has hopped on the bandwaggon of not allowing that, so had to recompile with --enable-run-as-root flag, and for the longest time, I couldn't satisfy the dependecies for the source until now [04:36] KM0201: good question o_o [04:36] because I am root [04:36] sab0tage, couldn't you set attributes on it? [04:36] always [04:37] before i install ubuntu, should i use raid, ide, or the other one i forget the name??? [04:37] thats sort of like bosting you are drunk... always... ;) but i will leave it at that.. [04:38] at my user login screen if i just do the ctrl+alt+f1 tty shell , I also ran `sudo apt-get update` and received some 'wicked' resolve errors on natty/Release.gpg fetch. [04:38] computer_: AHCI? [04:38] yeah i think so [04:38] sab0tage: sudo /usr/bin/vlc-wrapper movie [04:38] hello I cannot hear any sound on ubuntu 11.04 [04:38] computer_: RAID if you intend to use RAID (and know what that is ;), AHCI otherwise [04:39] maum: check your volume, had it muted on 2 machines [04:39] yeah, wrapper wouldn't work for me either. [04:39] anyway, the good news is that i'm NOW at the nvidia patch screen so thanks for that everyone who helped [04:39] i tried to install ubuntu with raid but it wouldnt let me [04:39] dc5ala, unmuted and volume is right. [04:39] I tried xhost +localhost and using wrapper as root, but still wouldn't work [04:39] AHCI is SATA? [04:39] sab0tage: Do you have an Ubuntu technical support question? [04:40] no [04:40] why? [04:40] I'm here provided support buddy [04:40] do you have a question rww? [04:40] sab0tage: #ubuntu is for technical support, not chat. We also specifically disagree with running as root, and thus it's best if you take this conversation elsewhere. [04:40] crap... installing the 275 nvidia driver for my 9600 gt, pre-install script failed - anyone know if this is normal? [04:41] maum: check hardware in audio settings, using more than one sound device maybe? [04:41] here is my laptop that i am using http://www.msi.com/product/nb/GT683.html [04:41] dc5ala, where can I check the hardware? [04:41] I just fixed my sound with installing alsa-oss the other day. [04:41] might be worth checking out [04:41] pulseaudio is a mess... [04:41] maum: right click on little speaker in the bar [04:42] dc5ala, there is no hardware in sound preference [04:42] i installed ubuntu using ide, but now i just might reinstall so i can use ahci [04:42] dc5ala, what desktop environment are u using? gnome, kde, unity? [04:42] dc5ala, how can I set the hardware? [04:42] maum, actually I was asking you that, desktop? [04:43] sab0tage, yes and I opened sound preference [04:43] or if there is a way to install ubuntu using raid then i would need help [04:43] how would i install lxde without installing any extra apps? [04:43] sab0tage, there is no device in hardware tab [04:44] maum: it usually lists found sound hardware there. You should find out what hardware you are using. [04:44] sab0tage, I'm using ubuntu [04:44] dc5ala, but there is no divice... it is strange.

[04:47] any1 has some kind of guide i can follow [04:47] ? [04:47] I installed windows 7 which broke grub, and I attempted to re-install grub following this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows, but now upon boot I get the grub shell. Any ideas what might have gone wrong? [04:49] try grub-restore [04:49] sab0tage: from the grub shell upon boot? or from the live-cd"? [04:49] I assume the latter [04:49] :-( [04:49] also if it matters, the old grub was originally installed by fedora 13 [04:49] from the live cd. did you use the correct parititon when installing grub "ie. grub-install /dev/ [04:50] !lvm [04:50] Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [04:50] !raid [04:50] thanks will take a look [04:50] sab0tage: I believe so if for no other reason than it used to boot windows, and now boots into grub shell [04:50] sab0tage, how to install audio drive? [04:51] !madam [04:51] !madm [04:51] Hello chaps. I've got a box that I'm planning on sticking ubuntu server on. I don't have an external screen of any kind and don't have access to one. What would be the best way of getting it up and running? :) [04:51] maum Add "options snd-hda-intel model=auto" to /etc/modprobe.d/50-sound.conf [04:51] 2. Install pulse audio. Strangely this was not installed and conflicted with patterns-openSUSE-kde4_pure which I had to remove. [04:51] welly: Serial console. [04:51] I got that from here: http://forums.opensuse.org/english/other-forums/development/open-build-service-obs/450686-no-sound-intel-corporation-5-series-3400-series-chipset-high-definition-audio.html seems to fix a lot of intel chipsets [04:52] sab0tage: also, does grub-restore care about grub2 vs grub legacy? [04:52] to tell you the truth, Im not sure which is in use. both grub.conf and menu.lst exist and have the same contents [04:52] umm, can't say for sure, I don't think so, but you might want to research [04:52] sab0tage, where? I don't know what you talking to me [04:52] Corey: Heh.. I guess it might be easier for me to just source a screen. but I'd rather not spend money on a screen if I don't have to [04:52] maum, you need to go to that link or just put that line in that conf file [04:53] hello guys, can i bind key combination to one key in xmodmap? and How? [04:53] All: On my wifi to lan ICS bridge I was reading that one thing that causes problems is IPv6 and most seem to be disabling it to make the dhcp3-server and bridging work. Do you all agree with that? [04:53] there are similar lines already in that file, you might just have to change the last part to auto, or if it's not there, add it [04:54] sab0tage, link? [04:54] http://forums.opensuse.org/english/other-forums/development/open-build-service-obs/450686-no-sound-intel-corporation-5-series-3400-series-chipset-high-definition-audio.html [04:54] last entry is your solution, not tough at all. [04:55] anyone here got selenium working in firefox 4? [04:55] hello guys, i want to bind "Alt + F2" to "Win" key, how can i achieve this? [04:55] K since already in synaptic will remove IPv6. [04:56] System -> Preferences -> Keyboard shortcuts [04:56] no, just disable ipv6, unless you don't use it, but I wouldn't uninstall [04:56] dhcp3-server probably has it's own option for disabling in dhcp.conf [04:57] sab0tage, i don't know where can I add Add "options snd-hda-intel model=auto" to /etc/modprobe.d/50-sound.conf [04:57] qin: it work after removing pm-utils completely [04:57] x64, maybe that's a solution, but I need more, like bind "control + pgDn" to "Control_R" [04:57] type "options snd-hda-intel model=auto" into file /etc/modprobe.d/50-sound.conf, how hard is that. If you don't understand, go use windows again. [04:58] Or read the documentation. [04:58] sab0tage, there is no 50-sound.conf file in the directory and I'm using ubuntu [04:58] All: If this fixes this I will be soooooooooooooooo happy!!! [04:59] sab0tage: there is no command 'grub-restore' [04:59] maalac, it did work? [04:59] Nothernen: it work after removing pm-utils completely. it's not freeinzg anymore. but i can't do hibernate or suspend and it still shows battery time .. [04:59] did you try restore-grub [04:59] maalac, not ideal, but beats freezing I suppose. [04:59] sab0tage, me? [04:59] Northernen: proven that the problem is the pm-utils. [05:00] sab0tage: nothing for 'restore-grub', either [05:00] maalac, aye, seems so. Especially weird as there are reports of the early versions work better than the later. [05:01] did you check out your grub.conf file or menu.lst? I would issue the update-initramfs -u -k all command and then try to reinstall grub [05:01] maum: there is a alsa-base.conf in that directory, you can try that [05:01] sab0tage, no menu.lst in 11.04. [05:01] sounds like it's not finding the image [05:01] are there any hazards of using bash instead of dash besides just a slow boot? [05:01] Northernen: i'm sticking into this version for the meantime. I don't seem to find any reason to upgrade. i dont seem to like the unity gui's [05:01] I'm rebooting peeps, ill brb [05:02] maalac, Unity truly is proper rubbish. I agree. === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [05:02] Rick James> Unity! [05:02] maalac, but you can still choose Gnome classic in login menu though, if you so wish. [05:04] Northernen: Thank's a lot for your suggestion. That save my day . [05:05] All: See there is no way to disable IPv6 from synaptic so had to follow HOWTO at: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/05/how-to-disable-ipv6-in-ubuntu-1004.html Hope this is all good, as from the descript will have to go down for reboot on this. [05:05] maalac, no worries. Just a Linux beginner myself, but I try to help if I can. [05:05] I'll give ya'll a little time to comment, before I reboot. Thanks! [05:05] maalac, no freezes so far? [05:06] Northernen: yes, i tried it several times while chatting with you ... [05:06] TBotNik: why would you want to disable ipv6 ¿ o_O that's crazy [05:06] maum: you got that line into the file or need help with it? [05:07] xangua: Cause all the write ups and HOWTOs on inet bridging says causes problems, and I got those problems. [05:08] All: Eureka, I'm in and it is working and without the reboot. Ohhh Happppppyyy Dayyyy!!!! === tfilipczuk is now known as makak [05:10] Anyone know why KPackageKit is DLing at 10 KBPS? [05:11] Kaleidoscope: Is the problem specific to KPackageKit, i.e. does apt-get work? [05:11] Northernen: i think it just did freeze on me .. [05:11] All: Well not all works. Boohoo! The dhcp3-server is giving me IPs on the network, but DNS is not working or passing through so ping from the Win box is not getting through for "ping www.google.com" the basic ping test. What now? [05:11] Didn't try Apt-get, however firefox DL's at fullspeed [05:12] Lemme try apt-get [05:12] brb [05:12] maalac, while on battery? [05:12] All: I assume I need something from the wlan0 nameservers, passed through to the eth0 port, so need to find that now. Help please almost there. [05:13] Northernen: yes i don't know why is he doing that .. [05:13] maalac, you've got all the newest drivers? [05:13] I need something to apt-get [05:13] Nothernen: yes i do .. [05:15] BRB rebooting to see if I go all the way with reboot. [05:16] maalac, if you don't want to upgrade to 11.04, upgrade the kernel? Seems to fix it for some at least. [05:18] Northernen: what is the latest kernel? [05:19] maalac, kernel.org. 11.04 comes with 2.6.38 I believe. Newest I think is 2.6.39.x. [05:19] maalac: 3.0 [05:19] theadmin, 3.0? [05:20] Hey everyone! [05:20] theadmin: thanks. do you have the link where i can download ? [05:20] How are you? [05:20] I need a bit of a assist with a Ubuntu 11.04 ARM install [05:20] Northernen: 3.0 is the latest kernel [05:20] maalac: kernel.org [05:22] theadmin, when was 2.0 released, do you know? [05:22] Northernen: 2.0? No idea [05:22] Northernen: I suppose I didn't even live then [05:22] Northernen: 3.0, however, was released 22nd July 2011 [05:23] theadmin, hehe. 2.6.39 is the latest stable though. 3.0 still experimental. Considering it was released 22/7-2011, probably experimental a while longer. [05:24] i coudnt install skype in my copmputer ubuntu 10.04? [05:24] Northernen: 2.0 came out in 1996. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/timeline/cdf3cfeca3e82219ddcab20550e85406.png [05:24] Why not? [05:25] Northernen: also, 3.0 is the latest stable. It's not "experimental". [05:25] just not on any released Ubuntu :P [05:25] Northernen: will try dat.. [05:25] rww, says 'latest stable kernel' is 2.39.3 on kernel.org? Or am I looking wrong? [05:26] sweet: and why not? Do you get any error? [05:27] Northernen: 'mainline' is the most recent Linux release. 'stable' are kernels that have been out a while and are getting security and driver fixes backported to them. [05:27] sweet, try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install skype [05:27] rww, 2.0 in 1996. Is it wrong to find the 3.0 release quite exciting then? [05:27] rww, oooh. I see. [05:27] Northernen: 2.x to 3.x is an arbitrary version increment, it doesn't signify more major changes than 2.6.38 to 2.6.39 [05:28] Northernen: Linus was just tired of being stuck in the 2.x.x branch [05:28] I though it was major.minor.patch? [05:29] dc5ala: yeah when i was try to download it says faild to download skype even iw as try to edit in repository but there is no soulution? [05:29] Northernen: http://lwn.net/Articles/452531/ [05:29] Northernen: The traditional versioning scheme is "major.minor.release.revision.patch" [05:30] x64: i was try to do like that but still i coudnt install skype it says faild to download?

Taking a small break to update my forum posts and config posts on this. BRB [05:31] i compiled and loaded 2.6.35.13 and facing these issues, can anyone help ! [05:31] Ok, Tried Apt-get still going extremely slow [05:32] theadmin, hah, thought you were just joking with the regards to the 2.x.x branch. Apparently not. [05:32] x64: God, there is "add-apt-repository" for adding repos, no need for such a mess [05:32] sweet: you can also download it from skype.com and install the .deb from there if you have trouble with the repository [05:32] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype [05:33] bicepjai: busy box is bad, bad, bad [05:34] Northernen: I wasn't. [05:35] KM0201 ... trying to compile and load linux kernel thru virtual box [05:35] i compiled and got this issue when loading ... any suggestions ? [05:36] Anyone? [05:37] Kal what's the problem? [05:37] Both KPackageKit and Apt-get are Downloading extremely slow [05:37] Kaleidoscope: Well change your repositories [05:37] Which rep are you downloading from? [05:38] x64:http://pastie.org/2272342 [05:38] all the Us.Archive.Ubuntu ones [05:39] Far as I know, these reps are fine [05:40] Some repositories are slower than others. [05:40] I did recently reinstall my linux, and before They were DLing fine, full speed, Now though, they're slow [05:41] Kaleidoscope, do you know how to change the Ubuntu repo's [05:41] Yessir [05:42] cool [05:42] Kaleidoscope: us.archive.ubuntu.com has extremely variable performance, as it's used by lots of users. Pick a different mirror. [05:42] Know where any mirrors are listed? [05:43] Is it a specific application? [05:43] Kaleidoscope: System Settings -> Software Management -> Settings -> Edit Origins -> Download from: [05:43] (Other... is probably your best bet) [05:44] Sweet did you follow the documentation? [05:44] x64: What? [05:44] rww, doesn't it choose repos dynamically? I'm downloading from Norwegian servers. [05:45] x64:yes [05:45] Northernen: no [05:45] rww, Yea, here we go, Got a closer one and gettin good speeds [05:45] x64: oh, nvm. [05:45] Many thanks ^^ [05:45] And you're still getting that error? [05:45] Hi gents. === cypha`` is now known as cypha [05:45] rww, repos based on keyboard layouts then? [05:46] Northernen: I have no idea. I'd suspect timezone. [05:46] When attempting to install Ubuntu on a machine w/ a fakeraid RAID1 array, Ubuntu doesn't detect any hard drives. How can I get around this? [05:46] rww, that would make more sense indeed. [05:46] Northernen: come to think of it, I accidentally selected a TZ in Canada once and ended up with ca.archive.ubuntu.com, so I think that is it. [05:46] Strange thing in Natty. Adobe and Skype windows both seem to be missing visible scrollbars, so i can scroll up/down by clicking in the whitespace but there is no visible scrollbar. Additionally I cannot see radiobuttons or checkboxes but they are there. Everything else works fine ie nautilus has crollbars etc. [05:47] rww, US based? [05:47] Northernen: I live in California, yes. [05:47] votz: install from alternate CD. [05:47] wildbat: alternate CD? [05:47] sweet: Have you enabled other software repositories? [05:47] Any ideas, i must also note that I removed the new scrollbars, so I have the regular ones. [05:48] Hello, how can I decrypt my homefolder in a chroot enviroment? [05:48] whats the fastest way to get two ubuntu machines communicating over my router for file share? [05:48] x64:yes [05:48] rww, shouldn't be too much delay to Canadian servers then? [05:48] Northernen: There wasn't, no. [05:49] Hola, is anyone aware of a way to remove (or delay) the black contact list info popup in empathy? [05:49] wildbat: what's an alternate CD? [05:50] !alt >votz [05:50] votz, please see my private message === new is now known as Deba [05:50] wildbat: ah, thanks [05:50] I'll try just that [05:51] csdserver: samba ftp etc [05:52] If I forgot the passphrase and password for my encrypted home directory, am I totaly and utterly screwed? [05:52] lolcat, logic would certainly dictate so. [05:53] So there is no way to decrypt it without it? [05:53] lolcat: No, just restore from your backup ;-) [05:54] Would anyone know why Adobe & Skype are missing visible scrollbars and checkboxes and radiobuttons, ability to highlight etc? But its still functional if you can guess where they are! [05:54] Wouldn't be much point in encrypting anything really, if anyone could just decrypt it. [05:54] lolcat, I believe you should have received some type of long string encryption recovery key upon first boot after electing to encrypt your home directory [05:54] kingmilo: couse they are nice and hidden couse unity hates you [05:54] ok, i had been using samba but i'm not sure about my network configuration at all. can someone take a look at some of my conf files to make sure i'm not making some common errors? i'll pastebin what is needed [05:55] kingmilo, you have esoteric radiobuttons, they are just in another meta space, alternatively try classic desktop [05:55] lolcat, let me see if i can find the exact name of mine [05:55] dc5ala: My hardware doesnt allow for Unity sidebar so i assume it falls back to classic. Also this is a ltsp environment with 200+ users. [05:56] charlietango: I did, I thougth nothing of it and left it [05:56] vlt: THis is my backup :P [05:56] lolcat: I knew. [05:57] Info: Check the system log for more information from libecryptfs [05:57] What log is that refering to? [05:57] kingmilo, and it happens on multiple client machines? [05:58] dc5ala: Yup, every user at every station has the same problem, but only with skype and adobe. I know skype is based on Qt so wondering if that has soming to do with it. Nautilius and anything directly gnome related is fine. [05:58] http://paste.ubuntu.com/652205/ [05:59] dc5ala: As mentioned above I removed the gastly new scrollbars in natty so that might have something to do with it, I now operate with the old style scrollbars. [06:00] kingmilo, hmm with adobe i assume you mean flash? You can browse a site with fash content and disable hardware acceleration via context menu [06:01] dc5ala: apologies for not being clear, i mean adobe reader. Ill paste a screenshot shortly [06:01] I do wonder why the Ubuntu team made Unity their default desktop environment, especially since there is so little modification available. [06:02] I don't like it. [06:02] Northernen: ubuntu isn't about modification, it's about getting a sane desktop out of the box ready to go [06:02] Northernen: if you are a tweaker there is better distros suited to your needs [06:03] slackware :P [06:03] or arch [06:03] arch. [06:03] snuxoll, I would like to be able to move the bar various places. === ok12345 is now known as blueghost [06:03] If you have lost your wrapped-passphrase file, and you did not record your mount passphrase, it is impossible to access your encrypted data. [06:03] Northernen, it's still new so it think it takes a while to mature [06:04] I have the wrapped-passphrase file, can I access my encrypted data? [06:04] can someone check my testparm and see if there are any issues with sharing? i can't access from any other computer on the network even though I could before. the two *nix hostnames are csdserver and csdclient ; mapped network to 10.1.1.1/7 ; dhcp server enabled ; DNS resolvers are one external to isp the other is router's IP ; [06:05] fcfa816b011d11c5^[p^R�;�?5n��3cBI�>����Z�Ϣâ��^Fˢ^KK [06:05] That is my wrapped passphrase [06:05] Does that give any clues about the password I gave? [06:06] You could bruteforce it, if you have an eternity. [06:06] x64, depends on the length. [06:06] Try to reverse the scheme yet? [06:06] True. [06:06] hello [06:07] how can I install nvidia graphic driver on ubuntu 11.04 [06:07] System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers [06:07] x64: My usuall passwords aren't that hard, but I can't remember this, usually around 8-9 characters [06:07] lolcat, then again, if you are not using an auto-password generator, how many alternatives can be? I'm an idiot, I use 1 almost everywhere. [06:07] How do I brutforce it? [06:07] First see if it matches with any known hashes online [06:07] Northernen: I know, I have like 10 I normally use, but none will work [06:08] when ever i try to install .deb files it just opens ubuntu software center with out installin ghtem [06:08] them* [06:08] dc5ala: Check it out: http://ScrnSht.com/whoafe [06:08] vanquish349, dpkg -i nameof.deb [06:08] x64: How do I make the characters pastable and what is the encryption scheme? [06:08] x64: this driver is activated but not currently in use. [06:08] Northernen: ok i will try [06:09] Maum, do you have more than one enabled? [06:09] kingmilo, that looks really odd, have you tried other QT based software? [06:09] vanquish349, from terminal. [06:09] x64: no I have only one graphic card [06:09] x64: that looks nothing like a sha256 hash at least [06:09] dc5ala: Nope i haven’t yet, it's a 'production' environment so i try and fiddle as little as possible.. . [06:09] maum, do a sudo apt-get install nvidia-current [06:10] then run a sudo nvidia-xconfig [06:10] Does it matter if ubuntus partition is closer to the center of the disk? Does it matter at all whether its one of many logistical drives, or a primary? [06:10] truepurple: no and no [06:10] x64: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) [06:10] E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? [06:10] Northernen: i know, i am not that much of a noob(just a little bit) [06:11] Maum, close the hardware driver/ubuntu software center then try it [06:11] vanquish349, no offense intented. [06:11] x64: there is same error [06:11] lol [06:11] Do you currently having something installing Maum? [06:11] x64: now it's working and done [06:11] I learn something new about Linux every day, but I feel like I'm getting more and more stupid. I still haven't learned to interpret fdisk output. [06:12] x64: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 6 not upgraded. [06:12] x64: nvidia-current is already the newest version. [06:12] maum, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, do it :) [06:12] K now run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [06:12] x64: but I want to reinstall the graphic card [06:13] then go to hardware drivers -> deactivate (bottom left) then "activate" it again. [06:13] Juozas, not it's done [06:13] Juozas, now [06:13] bottom right* [06:13] choose remove [06:14] x64; there s additional drivers menu [06:14] Yes, no activate it again and you've reinstalled it. [06:15] now* [06:15] i also have another problem, a while back i was trying to install bashish, i found a link on the net and installed it, and it wasnt what i wanted so i unistalled it and installed the proper one but know when ever i open terminal i get this error /home/jeremy/.bashish/prompt/theme: line 9: _bashish_theme_defaults_cp437font: command not found [06:15] terminator* [06:15] havent tried terminal yet [06:15] x64; how to activate? [06:15] yep same error with terminal [06:15] System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers -> Choose the driver and press "activate" at the bottom right. [06:15] x64: no proprietary drivers are in use on this system [06:16] Do that maum. [06:16] kingmilo, maybe something with QT themes, but have no real idea =/ [06:16] dc5ala: no problem boss thanks for looking [06:16] x64 there is noadministration menu [06:16] Will I get better performance from linux if it is closer to the center of the HDD disk? [06:16] x64 there is no administration menu [06:16] truepurple: no [06:16] Maum, are you using 11.04? [06:16] yes [06:16] maum, if you got nvidia driver installed, did you reboot? [06:17] yes [06:17] Maum, go to unity and search "drivers" [06:17] rww: from what experience/knowledge base do you speak from? I asked you this in PM, but you never answered [06:17] there is only one menu(additional drivers [06:17] ) [06:18] That's fine, click that. [06:18] And then select install drivers from the drop down.

[06:21] x64: how can I reinstall the nvidia driver? [06:21] truepurple: In fact, the time you've spent asking this question here and elsewhere is probably larger than the total amount of time you would save from putting Linux at the end of your disk from now until your computer dies.

The LiveCD version of 10.10 gives me a wired internet connection, but upon initial boot of the installed version of 10.10, I get an error message saying my wired connection has been disconnected, [06:27] dc5ala: Ok interesting, for Qt based packages only i presume.

I'm looking for something realistic. [06:30] truepurple, they can read the logs of all your interactions on 3 channels, you have little to stand on.

The best HOWTO on this so far has been the one at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing and wondering if I should be starting at and implementing the sections at/under "Gateway Set up". In particular the NAT and IPTables sections. What do you guys think? [06:36] Pin, what's the output?

[07:03] !une | thegoodcushion [07:03] thegoodcushion: Starting with Ubuntu 11.04, the Ubuntu Netbook Edition is no longer being offered as a separate install as Unity is now standard for all Ubuntu desktop installs. [07:03] Pin, rebooting won't affect screen resolution anyway. [07:03] and for LTS, is it Ubuntu Netbook Remix 10.04 ? [07:05] @thegoodcushion: ...pardon? [07:06] for long term support on a netbook, is it that version that I want? The "Netbook Remix" ? [07:06] I had to get rid of Unity, it just randomly blows up once in a while and has to repaint all windows, some of which lose their positions. I hope they're working on that little problem. Or maybe it's ATI's proprietary driver. But realistically almost everyone is going to use that driver if they are running several monitors on a Radeon HD card. [07:07] ejo, I hate fglrx :( [07:07] Yeah, i don't like fglrx much either :| [07:07] ejo, I've had to reinstall 5 ish times because of it. [07:07] Finished setting up 11.04 and setting up ndiswrapper (huge PIA) :P [07:08] it doesn't play too well with Xinerama. Or maybe it's just that Xinerama doesn't know how to run widescreen monitors rotated vertically very well. [07:08] Now my print drivers don't work... [07:08] ;( [07:08] im going to reinstall ubuntu [07:08] I see this : Could not apply stored configuration for monitors and No proprietary drivers are in use on this system do you have any idea about this? [07:08] Northernen: good grief, you had to reinstall your whole OS because of it? Seems like a bit overboard [07:08] im too mad [07:08] im saving my files [07:08] Pin: calm down [07:08] ejo, can't boot. Boots into black screen. Can't enter recovery mode. [07:09] wow [07:09] no fun [07:09] ejo, I'm on Windows7 because of it :( [07:09] its late and i have to work in the morning and i need to be able to see what im doing [07:09] ugh [07:09] That's pretty much Windows' only advantage now, the millions of hours of graphics driver testing [07:10] or really, billions [07:10] with as much as i lvoe ubuntu i might have to reinstall win7 [07:10] because i have to work in the morning [07:10] ejo, indeed. This will be the last ATI card I am ever buying until they sort out their Linux support. Granted it came with my Acer laptop, but I'm not paying any companies any more with this sort of attitude. [07:10] It would be amazing if either the open source ATI driver would catch up or ATI would release a true Radeon driver instead of a Fire GL driver recycled for radeons. [07:11] 有人说中文吗？ [07:11] !cn [07:11] 如欲獲得中文的協助，請輸入 /join #ubuntu-cn 或 /join #ubuntu-tw [07:11] Northernen: well, good luck getting any major video card maker to do good Linux support; where's the reward for them? [07:11] unless someone know hows to stop compiz from messing up my resolutions [07:11] Pin, set up a dual boot when you get the chance. [07:11] ejo, at least nVidia is better than ATI. [07:11] i do have a dual boot [07:12] oh yeah? haven't checked lately North [07:12] Pin: then why the reinstall [07:12] Northernen, How so? [07:12] ejo, that's what I hear at least. It certainly can't be worse than ATI's efforts. [07:12] Autodidactite, fglrx is not working at all. [07:13] I think of NVidia as being even more dependent on gamers, which means 99.9% Windows users [07:13] Northernen: how new is your monitor(s)? [07:13] and card [07:13] 'cause it's working fine for me on 2006-07ish stuff [07:13] fglrx is working quite okay here [07:13] how to install ccsm ? [07:13] But I remember trying to get with Ubuntu in 2008 on same exact hardware and gave up, too much trouble getting any video at all [07:13] who can speak Chinese [07:13] ejo, Acer aspire 5820 tg. Mobility radeon 5650. Quite new monitor. [07:14] farsight: #ubuntu-cn [07:14] but my damn compiz messedu p my resolutions. Northerner just helped me put my resolutions back with xrandr, when i rebooted, compiz gave me this error http://i.imgur.com/b7bWY.png [07:14] Autodidactite, it's not here at all. [07:14] how to install ccsm ? [07:14] #ubuntu-cn [07:14] It was a bit rough lately but seems all good for me now [07:14] Pin, have you tried just Gnome w/o Unity? [07:14] along with that error , it whiped out all the resolutions we had added!!!!! [07:14] yes, Im on ubuntu classic [07:14] same thing [07:14] oh good [07:14] hm [07:14] Oh really, what chip Northernen? [07:14] Pin, reboots wipes the resolutios you've added. [07:15] no it shouldnt northernen [07:15] but thats whats happening [07:15] Pin, it does. Need to put it in a script or something. [07:15] Autodidactite, graphics? [07:16] then what are we waiting for [07:16] what do we do [07:16] Yes Northernen GPU [07:16] I need to get this fixed or erase my system one or the other [07:16] Autodidactite, ATI Mobility Radeon HD5650. It is supposed to be fully supported. [07:16] It sooo sucks that they wont open source these main GPU drivers [07:17] Pin, what is wrong with the alignment? [07:17] doesn't Autodidactite use fglrx for that driver? [07:17] I hv 4 cd burners going. They all hv same name :( How to rename cd drives pls? [07:18] goer_: what do you mean have the same name? [07:19] I cannot hear music on ubuntu 11.04 [07:19] In gnomebaker (4 simultaneous sessions) they all sjow up with same name cos that is what they are called of course as they are a;; Sony drives. But how to differentiate them in Gnomebaker? [07:19] maum, did you install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package , or did you mean the speaker output [07:20] lspci -nn | grep VGA [07:20] Autodidactite, did you use "Additional drivers" or download from amd.com and run in manually? [07:20] Oops [07:20] lol [07:20] bazhang, I cannot listen any music or sound on ubuntu 11.04 [07:20] Wrong window [07:21] Autodidactite, heh, not the first one to do that. [07:21] maum, did you install that package? also check alsamixer in terminal and make sure nothing is muted === david is now known as Guest30685 [07:21] bazhang, unmuted and how can I check alsamixer? [07:22] bazhang, and what package? [07:22] wols: so do u know? [07:22] maum, open a terminal. type alsamixer . ubuntu-restricted-extras <------ that package [07:23] Nope. Northernen, I just install the driver from the restricted driver applet that pops up in Ubuntu 11.04 [07:23] But I did run all the updates first [07:24] bazhang, Chip: Realtek ALC272 [07:24] Autodidactite, which GPU do you have? [07:24] bazhang, I can see some screen when I typed AlsaMaxer [07:24] maum, did you install that package, yes or no [07:24] maum, make sure nothing is set to mute [07:24] bazhang, I just installed it [07:25] The first time I run 11.04 I installed the proprietary driver first before all the updates and things didn't go so good [07:25] bazhang, I still cannot listen music [07:26] 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc M880G [Mobility Radeon HD 4200] [1002:9712] [07:26] 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc Manhattan [Mobility Radeon HD 5430 Series] [1002:68e1] (rev ff) [07:29] All: UPDATE: Getting IPs on this remote network but can not ping any names like "www.google.com" from the network machines, but can ping googles address of 74.125.47.99, so know it is a nameserver problem [07:29] Autodidactite, not sure why it would work with you, and not with me. You've got an older GPU than I have, and the entire Mobility series were supposed to have been supported from what I believe. [07:30] <[snake]> apache2s .htaccess file location? [07:31] Something is afoot! what brand OEM lappy is yours in Northernen? [07:31] Autodidactite, Acer. Wouldn't have bought it if I had a second chance. [07:33] Acer is okay [07:33] What version of Ubuntu are you running? [07:33] Autodidactite, 11.04. I hate Acer. === tux is now known as Guest60403 [07:34] hi i want to do basically take a chmod command/permission off of an executable file that i got off internet but don't know how, i ran this command to allow it to be executable: chmod 777 VU-InstanTempo.linux [07:35] ghostnik11, which permissions do you want to remove? [07:35] And it is a clean install not an upgrade? === Guest60403 is now known as Tux_matt [07:35] Northernen [07:35] Autodidactite, clean. [07:35] Cool [07:36] sdfgsd [07:36] chmod for this file named vu-instanTempo.linux, northernen [07:36] ghostnik11, if you don't want to be executable: chmod -x file.fileextension [07:36] !cn | farsight_ [07:36] farsight_: 如欲獲得中文的協助，請輸入 /join #ubuntu-cn 或 /join #ubuntu-tw [07:36] And you have ran all the updates before installing the closed sourced driver [07:36] northernen, so if i run that command the file won't be executable correct? [07:36] Autodidactite, can't even boot now. Not even with nomodeset. [07:37] ghostnik11, yup. [07:37] helllo [07:37] northernen, cool thanks will run now and see [07:37] ghostnik11, might need to be root to run it, not sure of its permissions. [07:37] ghostnik11, list a file's permissions with ls -l. [07:38] I cannot hear sound on ubuntu [07:38] can you go into recovery mode at grub and run the x config or start Ubuntu in safe graphics mode? [07:38] Autodidactite, nope. It stalls when trying to enter recovery mode. [07:39] <[snake]> where is the apache2 .htaccess file? [07:39] Autodidactite, I know it has something to do with the xorg.conf file. [07:39] northernen: this is what i got when i ls -l to see permission: -rwxrwxrwx 1 nikolai nikolai 980343 2011-07-23 19:23 VU-InstanTempo.linux [07:39] [snake], it's not _a_ file. You create .htaccess files when you want to restrict access to a site. [07:39] northernen, can i still run command chmod -x file.fileextension [07:40] <[snake]> hm [07:40] <[snake]> i see [07:40] ghostnik11, yes, run that command, and all those X's will disappear, which signalises it's an executable file. [07:40] ghostnik11, no X's = not executable. [07:40] <[snake]> someone else told me it showed those who accessed your webserver??? hmm [07:41] Well that sucks ( I know, I am captain obvious) if you still have your install medium about you can live boot and attempt to fix or just wipe it and reinstall [07:41] [snake], it does do that, but you create it yourself. [07:41] <[snake]> ok [07:41] <[snake]> Thanks [07:41] snake, that is access.log [07:42] Did you do all the updates before installing the closed sourced driver Northernen [07:42] ? [07:42] Autodidactite, /salute :>, can I edit xorg.conf with live CD? I thought it was just data I was allowed to edit? [07:42] Autodidactite, aye, believe so. [07:43] Oh yes you very much can edit any file on an install from a live boot [07:43] northernen: worked a charm, thanks bro, this is what i get now when i run the ls -l to check permission of file: -rw-rw-rw- 1 nikolai nikolai 980343 2011-07-23 19:23 VU-InstanTempo.linux [07:43] northernen: thanks again for help [07:43] ghostnik11, no worries. Now it's executable by anyone. [07:44] how do you get rid of jackdbus and revert back to jackd1? [07:44] my pc is not dectecting any input voice what is the problem ? just iam using ubntu 10.04? [07:45] Autodidactite, pardon my ignorane, didn't think it was possible to edit system settings. I suppose I'll have to resort to using open source drivers. [07:45] ghostnik11, +not. [07:45] sweet: open audio settings via speaker icon and look for input there [07:46] northernen: figured thats what u meant [07:46] 하이~ === hi is now known as Guest70799 [07:46] anyone know about jackaudio? [07:47] Yes you could do this and then do second install of Ubuntu dual boot and then experiment in the other one and if things go wrong for some reason you can fix it from the other insatll [07:47] Hi [07:48] join opensourcemusicians [07:48] dc5ala: even i was try to correct in system>preference>sound>input>then unmute but still it doesnot work? [07:49] whoops i didnt mean to type that [07:50] sweet: in the input settings there is a level indicator, is that working and is there any input device listed? === Drizz1 is now known as Drizzle [07:52] Autodidactite, already dual-booting W7. Been thinking I might set up a vmware Linux for testing. [07:52] how do you get root? it wont let me change or set a password [07:53] dtmf, what do you need to do? [07:53] make changes in files in /etc [07:53] secure my box [07:53] dtmf, you get root access with saying 'sudo' before your command. === Drizzle is now known as Drizzle777 [07:53] k, thanx [07:53] my closing minimazing and expanding menu for any window just dissapear how can i get it back? [07:54] HI, Im new to Ubuntu and on Ubuntu 11.04. I want to know how to set environment variables [07:54] set env [07:54] can anyone help me revert back to jackd and get rid of jackdbus? [07:54] dc5ala: just in the input level there is no indicator,in the connector it says microphone1,under choose advice for sound input=internal audio analog stereo [07:54] Yes you could do Northernen but the install inside of you virtual environment would not be touching your hardware. [07:55] why is synchronize grayed out in one of my remote share folders (i'm accessing through client folder browser) [07:55] Valid pont, Autodidactite , but I am soo over fglrx now. [07:55] for ubuntu One [07:56] csdwifi, perhaps try in #ubuntuone as well [07:56] thanks bazhang [07:56] HI, Im new to Ubuntu and on Ubuntu 11.04. I want to know how to set environment variables [07:56] sweet: are you using a usb headset or just normal microphone plugged into microphone input of your soundcard? [07:56] All: Re-ran my config capture script and posted in PB at: http://pastebin.com/yC9fcguh [07:58] Hello, I recently decided to update my little ubuntu box from 10.04 to at least 10.10, but unfortunately about halfway through the machine crashed, and now whenever I attempt to boot into ubuntu it shows a startup screen I have never seen before (but still marked as 10.04) and freeze. I have also tried using an 11.04 live install, but whenever I attempt to boot from that it simply says aufs [07:58] mount failed. Any chance someone could help me get started on fixing this? I have but a few files and mainly logs that actually need to be kept (one of the main reasons for trying the live install). Thank you. [07:58] please [07:58] help me [07:59] I cannot hear music on ubuntu 11.04 [07:59] <[snake]> maum, ok [07:59] question. I have a windows NFS share, but when I create a directory on it from a linux system, the folder is inaccessible from the Windows system.. "Windows cannot access \\NFS-share\folder".. [07:59] <[snake]> maum, I will run you through the diagnostics [07:59] I realize its an issue with permission, but not quite sure how to fix it=? [07:59] dc5ala: just normal microphone plugged into microphone sound card [07:59] necavi: use the 10.04 cd to recover the machine, you know that works [07:59] [snake], ok [07:59] <[snake]> maum, first, check to see if your audio device is plugged in correctly. [08:00] I don't blame you Northernen, it is such a petty that these things happen because people close access to there source code out of fear. [08:00] [snake], I cannot see any device on sound preference. [08:00] <[snake]> maum, is the hardware plugged in? [08:00] Wow, I feel stupid for not attempting that, I'll give it a try now! [08:00] [snake], there is no.. [08:00] Untouchab1e, fairly certain you need to use samba for that. [08:00] [snake], Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio [08:01] <[snake]> maum, ok thanks for that. but are your speaker/headphones plugged in? [08:01] Northernen: unfortunately, I need to use NFS :/ [08:01] [snake], my earphone plugged in. [08:01] Northernen: Im thinking there must be an easy chmod command from the linux box to fix it? [08:02] Untouchab1e, what [08:02] <[snake]> maum, ok. and your intel chipser is not working. hmm. did you check the drivers in: system>administration>Hardware drivers. they may be there [08:02] 's the permissions on the mount? [08:02] [snake], I'm using 11.04 so there is no adinistration menu but additional drivers. [08:03] Northernen: the problem must be that the files/folders created on the Windows NFS share from the Linux box have the linux root user as owner [08:03] meaning no other user can access it [08:03] what am I doing wrong when uploading to a ppa and launchpad sends me emails with "Could not find person or team named ''" [08:03] <[snake]> ok. good you are in the additional drivers. are there any available? [08:03] Untouchab1e, you want to change the owner of the files/directories? [08:03] Northernen: idk if that will fix it.. [08:03] maum: what does "lsmod | grep snd" say? (http://paste.ubuntu.com please) [08:03] hence why Im asking [08:04] hi all , is this the right place to ask about how to make ubuntu a gaming environment?' , forexample when using Wine , i would like to make my Ubuntu in a freeze status to dedicate all its powers and focus on the emulation , and when im out of the game , ubuntu processes the logging box forexample if i had chat messages it will be all in small bits of terminal language that has no gui at all and then presents to me normally in a gui format after the fre [08:04] eze status is unfrozen [08:04] does Linux have such a thing that exists... Thanks in advanced [08:04] Untouchab1e, me neither, but worth a try. "chown newonwer file/directory" by the way. [08:04] sweet: can you make a screenshot of that input settings? [08:05] <[snake]> dc5ala, this right? : Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio [08:05] dont tell me xfce , i use unity [08:05] <[snake]> for muam [08:05] Northernen: yea, thanks, however, I have no idea what owner to set [08:05] dc5ala, [snake], http://paste.pound-python.org/show/10039/ [08:05] KGB_plague, wine is not an emulator. Try in #winehq [08:05] read my question its more dedicated to ubuntu [08:05] Untouchab1e, just your own user? [08:06] wine is a diff story i can set the memory from their i want the dedication of ubuntu to be focusing on my game ( and wine ) Northernen [08:06] http://paste.ubuntu.com/652264/ [08:06] Northernen: but Linux doesnt use the same access control system as Windows [08:06] dc5ala, http://paste.ubuntu.com/652264/ [08:06] snake, he was asking earlier and last thing he was trying, was to add a line to alsa config, but then haven't heard anything [08:06] KGB_plague, only thing I can think of is editing the nice level. [08:07] <[snake]> dc5ala, oh... ok. maybe you should take over ;) [08:07] KGB_plague, set nice level to -19, and it should hog most resources. [08:07] <[snake]> How can I be sure my webserver is secure? [08:07] maum, i have sound problems its a bug also in unity if u have that not sure what ur question was but listen , just enable the inbuilt sound card then enable the PCI sound card again , do it for allt he tabs in the sound control [08:08] Untouchab1e, you need to access it from Windows as well? [08:09] KGB_plague, how can I? I don't know [08:09] Northernen: thats the problem here.. I have a Windows NFS Share which works fine, but I cannot access folders created from Linux systems on the Windows box [08:09] Permission denied [08:09] <[snake]> I love my webserver, and I don't want it to catch a cold out on the internet or anything. what could I do? is there any webserver security software that is free available? [08:09] Northernen, hog resources meaning? focuses on the task that requires focus? is their an app done that can freeze everything like empathy / evolution + Ubuntu GUI + Gnome ... so it focuses on the task at full potential then when im back fromm my game , or wine , then it wakes up everything and parcels all my skype messages or empathy from the chat server to see what ive missed [08:10] maum, ask question again plz [08:10] KGB_plague, how can I enable the inbuilt sound card? [08:10] ur using unity ? 11.04? [08:10] KGB_plague, how can I enable the inbuilt sound card and enable the PCI [08:10] thats simple , firstly i dont want to be rude have u got windows installed aswell? [08:10] snake, it's usually not the webserver itself that cause security problems, more the software you running on it [08:10] KGB_plague, no such thing, but if you want a process to take priority over other processes, adjust its nice level. [08:11] KGB_plague, yes I have [08:11] maum, does it work on windows , have u ever re-assembled ur machine lately? [08:11] Untouchab1e, I see. I don't think Windows recognises Linux permissions. [08:11] KGB_plague, no I haven't [08:11] maum, ok thats starters question that peopel sometimes neglect .. , go to ubuntu start , type sound [08:11] <[snake]> dc5ala, I'm running LAMP for my server. and that's really it. [08:11] or from the panel maum right click preferences at sound [08:11] Northernen: exactly.. so there must be a way to work around this somehow [08:12] KGB_plague, I opened the sound preference. but there is no hardware device. [08:12] <[snake]> dc5ala, that is Linux, apache2, mysql, and php. [08:12] Northernen, thats a great impact for the linux gamers in Linux World , if such thing exists ... it will be giving an increase of 15 - 25fps in games such as Call oF Duty Black ops or Fallout 2 [08:12] Northernen: I wonder if my mount command for the NFS share is the issue? [08:12] maum, have u had older ubuntu versions before this or is this ur first install of linux? [08:13] KGB_plague, I upgraded from 10.04 to 11.04 [08:13] maum, did u have this problem at 10.04 [08:13] KGB_plague, I had no problem [08:13] <[snake]> dc5ala, other than that I don't even run things on my server. plus I did a nessus scan and no exploits exist. [08:13] Untouchab1e, might be. Should probably mount it as a user account, although not sure if that will hell. [08:14] can u try booting 11.04 from usb and see if it can detect it ;) [08:14] Untouchab1e, not _as_ as a user account, but connect it to one. [08:14] KGB_plague, I could listen the music until yesterday [08:14] KGB_plague, I couldn't [08:15] Untouchab1e, local partition or over network? [08:15] maum, it doesnt detect from usb? hmm , try removeing the drivers thats installed let me get u the terminal command il google that one 4 u [08:16] KGB_plague, what do you want me to do? === Cain` is now known as Cain [08:16] Untouchab1e, never mind, I can't read. [08:16] open terminal type sudo aplay -l [08:16] does output show ur soundcard their? [08:17] When trying to install libc6 i get "dpkg: error processing libc6 (--install): subprocess installed post-installation script killed by signal (Illegal instruction)" - What can I do? [08:17] maum, did u mess with sound before u had the problem? installing modules etc..? [08:17] KGB_plague, http://paste.ubuntu.com/652269/ [08:18] nicofs, i had the same problem please let me know if u solved it =) [08:18] how to mirror only /dir under www.example.com? [08:19] can anyone help me with windows going all over the place, in to other workspaces even though you didn't resize it that way [08:19] maum, thats the sound card built in from ur motherboard , plug the input ping on ur motherboard output ( green colored or Black colored hole ) and retry ur sound if it works .. [08:19] i am running ubuntu 11.04 [08:19] with compiz on also [08:19] KGB_plague, I have no idea about that ... whether it was from updating or from installing module.... [08:20] KGB_plague, I don't know how to do that [08:20] ghostnik11, ur ubuntu is installed inside windows and not in a diffrent partition. [08:21] u see ur speakers maum , theirs a wire thats plugged behind ur PC to output the sound of ur speakers , remove that wire of its end point and plug it on a new point which colors green or black try both , but from ur motherboard sound card which will be located beside the usb inputs [08:22] ghostnik11, this happens when u mess up the compiz windows GUI's , and sometimes it glitches from memory loss [08:22] KGB_plague, my desktop is integral PC [08:22] KGB_plague, there is no main body [08:23] kgb_plague: oh, thats why it sometimes glitches and flashes, but i didn't do anything, i think its cause of unity [08:23] paste image [08:23] KGB_plague, All-in-one system. [08:26] i have a vlc command vlc to record video for 5 second but when it starts the vlc window also opens, is there any way to block the vlc window to pupup ...the command is -------vlc v4l2:///dev/video1 :v4l-quality=100 --sout "#transcode{vcodec=mp1v,vb=1024,scale=1,acodec=mpga,ab=192,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access=file,mux=mpeg1,dst=/tmp/test.mpg}}" --run-time 5 vlc://quit [08:26] KGB_plague, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1399697 [08:26] maum: maybe here is some useful info: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto [08:28] can anyone help me with this problem: http://imagebin.org/164926 [08:29] dc5ala:thnkyou now it works [08:30] sweet: great :) [08:31] hi all. i'm having a lot of trouble with my i915 graphics. mode switches and wake-up randomly lead to black screen, partially black screen, distorted display, xorg lockup, etc. any idea what i could do? i couldn't reven find any error messages...

I added the gnome 3 ppa yesterday, installed gnome-shell and upgraded whole system. Something is messed up (touchpad doesn't work as it should, windows decoration etc.). How can completely remove ubuntu-desktop ubuntu-netbook gnome-shell gnome 3 and every other desktop environment and install it from scratch? [08:54] !gnome3 | Atlantic777 [08:54] Atlantic777: 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. [08:54] Atlantic777, you cannot [08:55] nice.... thanks ;) [08:55] Hi everyone. I'm trying to boot a netbook using an external USB key thingy and it's not working. I used the pendrive creator utility. Is there any way I can check it's 'burned' okay? I altered my BIOS settings but the thing doesn't want to boot [08:56] thegoodcushion: You should try Unetbootin and (if on Windows) LiLi USB Creator [08:56] Ubuntu really should have some sort of fallback packages like on gentoo. Just remove world file and install again, versions which I want. :D [08:56] theadmin: okay. Is the Lili thing better than the pendrive one? [08:56] yo people wassup... [08:56] thegoodcushion: Quite [08:56] okay thx [08:56] * thegoodcushion goes to do it [08:57] can i determine what dhcp server was used "configure" my eth0 [08:57] ? [08:58] usually theres only one dhcp server [09:00] I'm getting hard time installing ubuntu 11.04 64bit on my T420 [09:01] First the disk partitioning failed [09:02] Bluetegu, how did you partition? [09:02] nit-wit, used the default partitioning suggested in the installation disk [09:03] Bluetegu, which is? there are several options at the choice window [09:03] Bluetegu did you leave ~1mb of space between the partitions, sometimes partition errors may occur if the partitions overlap [09:04] I chose install besides windows 7 and it offered a partitioning between the two. [09:04] I didn't select any overriding value. [09:06] Bluetegu, try editing the partitions and giving them a bit of wiggle room with a live disk, it may be from overlapping [09:06] For some strange reason when I'm rebooting from the installation CD now, it takes ages for Ubuntu to come up, and if I press escape to see the printing I see a loop of authentication failure printing. [09:06] urbanlime, do you mean use gparted for this? [09:06] bluetegu yes [09:06] Bluetegu, generally with a dual boot you want to build the partitions in gparted, or the custom install the last line at the bottom, you could wipe Windows if your not careful [09:07] Bluetegu, you also must know the limitations of primary partitions as well 4 per hd, or 3 and a extended for the linux/ [09:07] Ok, thank. I'll try Gparted. Basically I only need to shrink the windows 7 partition and then let the ubuntu installation do the rest, right? [09:08] So I now have the ability to liveboot into 10.04, but I'm unsure of what exactly would be best to do at this point, should I attempt to get my logs and programming files off of the install, then do a fresh 11.04? Or is there some suggested way to recover from a partial upgrade? (A lot of things thing I'm still running 10.04, but 10.04 setup seems to think that I'm running 10.10) [09:08] Bluetegu, I would only shrink W7 with its disk manager but gparted will work be careful [09:09] Bluetegu: My suggestion is to select to partition disks manually in Ubuntu install and mount the partition you want Ubuntu on as / [09:10] (addendum, this is in relation to a question I posed ~hour ago, I can past it to others via PM if needed) [09:10] nit-wit, Thanks, I'll take a look at disk manager. The idea here is also to shrink the partition and let then ubuntu install do the rest. [09:10] Ummm can I completely remove kubuntu after installing kubuntu-desktop/netbook? === nicofs_ is now known as nicofs [09:10] Atlantic777: Yes [09:11] Bluetegu, I have seen a ot of people when I helped at the UF, who let ubuntu do the work and ended up with a wiped W7. [09:11] *lot [09:12] theadmin: thanks, hope that it is the same for lubuntu-desktop [09:12] Atlantic777: It's same for any task [09:13] Atlantic777 it is the same for any operating system [09:13] nit-wit, I don't want to be one of those... Where is the disk manager? Its not in System Tools folder? [09:13] Atlantic777 you need to make sure that the bootloader is configured for the new os however [09:13] hey all [09:14] hey [09:14] Bluetegu, in the admin of W7 type disk mana and you will create new partitions or something like that I'm on W7 now but in a limited account I can't acces it. [09:14] Hi, guys. Do you have any information about implemention of 3.0 core to Ubuntu? [09:15] *implementation [09:15] guestguest: wait for the next ubuntu release [09:15] Bluetegu, I'm going to go to admin be right back [09:15] nit-wit, found it... [09:17] All: That last move of purging Network Manager killed my network, so had to run from the liveCD to get back up. Posting errors in PB as soon as I can recall/remember how to chroot to the HDD and get the errors file I saved. [09:17] ThinkT510 : you mean Oneiric Ocelot got 3.0 core? [09:17] Is there a program that allows you to migrate to a new Ubuntu server, that copies the packages and configuration? [09:18] (It's 64-bit to 32-bit, so the binaries won't work on the new server if you just copy the HDD) [09:18] !clone | Dvyjones [09:18] Dvyjones: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate [09:18] Dvyjones: Yup [09:18] Dvyjones: configuration is contained in /etc [09:18] how do i activate sticky keys? [09:19] brotatos: should be in system -> preferences -> keyboard [09:19] guestguest: if you are referring to the linux kernel then i think so [09:19] ThinkT510 : thank for that information [09:19] I'm back did you find the disk manad [09:19] ger [09:19] !11.10 | guestguest [09:19] guestguest: Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot) will be the fifteenth release of Ubuntu. Codename announcement here: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/?p=646 Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [09:20] nit-wit, yes, thanks. [09:20] nit-wit, I see the option to shrink the partition [09:20] cool I am going back to my other account [09:23] nothing like being in root on the iirc to feel vulnerable, sandboxed or not [09:25] Hey guys, I'm having a problem installing Natty. [09:25] nit-wit, I think I understand now why the ubuntu install partitioning failed. When I press the shrink volume option, it tells me that you can not shrink beyond the point where the unmovable files are located, and gives maximum size of 190G, which is less than what the ubuntu partitioning tried to do. [09:26] It always gives me an error message saying "the installer has encountered an unrecoverable error" [09:26] why when i open remote desktop viewer i see 2 entries for all computers connected? [09:26] I have a sound problem with 11.04 on Asus G53JW. Sound plays only through headphones, but not speakers. [09:27] Bluetegu, and if you use gparted to go past that you may have problems, you aware of partitions amounts correct [09:27] Dvyjones: Just a minute and I'll paste the command here 4 you. [09:27] I checked alsamixer and everything is unmuted but still no luck [09:27] auscompgeek, that's not really a helpful error message. Have you checked for console output on one of the ttys? [09:28] I'm new, so if this is a bit of a noob question, sorry. When I try starting my computer from the flash drive, it just gives me a black screen with some copyright stuff at the top [09:28] Bluetegu, when I want more space I shutdown the paging, I don't really use the recovery poinys, and defragg to get a smaller shrink [09:28] nit-wit, Many thanks. Hopefully I wont have problems going this route. [09:28] IzzyTheFedoraGuy: So X doesn't start? [09:28] All: K my restart and reboot errors are at: http://pastebin.com/Dh9AMdyq [09:28] <|seca|> Trying to mount 3tb drive on 32bit 10.10. Formated as gpt/ext3 drive and only showing 2.2tb. I know there was a size limitation, but thought it was lifted. Any ideas? [09:28] Bluetegu, back up the W7 if you can [09:28] In Slackware I fixed that issue by changing rhe master to PCM, but I don't know how to change that in ubuntu [09:28] a [09:29] branant: You can use pavucontrol [09:29] dc5ala: can't see any error messages on the tty when I press ok [09:29] Hi all, I have a live USB 11.04 install, when I boot it I need to be able to write data back to the FAT partition on the USB stick (not the squashfs root fs), this did work with the live desktop, but since moving to server (I don't need X/gui stuff) it now mounts it as read only (on /cdrom/). Does anyone know about the syslinux boot process and when ubuntu mounts the USB to /cdrom/ and how i go about changing it to rw? [09:29] I restart my computer and booted from the flash drive, none of the keys seem to work [09:30] theadmin: thanks, I will give it a try\ [09:30] auscompgeek: maybe you need to download it again [09:30] it's the same lettering as the startup screens, the only way I can get out of the screen is to completely shut off my computer [09:31] test [09:31] Infernet: problem is that I don't have the bandwidth to do so [09:31] Dvyjones: To capture on current machine use cmd: dpkg --get-selections > /mypath/myfile.txt to restore on next compute use cmd: dpkg --set-selections < /mypath/myfile.txt [09:31] Dvyjones: Simple enough? [09:33] Dvyjones: Works very well, I do it on all my machines with over 150 apps in my list that are not part of the liveCD. Actually adding it to my adhoc liveCD versions. [09:33] is there something I need to do at that screen to get ubuntu to work? [09:33] auscompgeek: do you try with the live cd? [09:33] IzzyTheFedoraGuy: What u mean? [09:34] Infernet: err, I thought I did download the live cd [09:34] I tried installing ubuntu, but when I boot from the flash drive, it just gives me a black screen with copyright stuff at the top, none of the keys seem to work [09:35] All: Dang it, as always, when you are making progress and you crash; the guy you were working with goes away and you start over.

[09:38] IzzyTheFedoraGuy, you may need a low graphics login; power on and tap the shift key at the gui hit f6 choose nomodeset and boot from there. [09:38] auscompgeek: well is likely that the download is corrupt === HarryHaaren_ is now known as HarryHaaren [09:39] kk, thanks, I'll try that [09:39] All: When I chroot to HDD from liveCD and run synaptic is RAM copy from liveCD or the root copy on the HDD being modified? [09:40] Infernet: would the fact that the computer is about 10 years old contribute to it? [09:41] e.g. low RAM probably [09:41] auscompgeek: probably... [09:42] hang on, I'll test on my 1GB RAM netbook ;p [09:42] auscompgeek: mostly with the HD [09:42] :O i dont think you have problems :P [09:44] Infernet: HD? say what? [09:44] auscompgeek: HD is iqual to Hard Disk === jthomas_1 is now known as jLoth [09:45] Infernet: that'd be HDD :p [09:46] is not neccessary the driver ;) [09:46] but I don't think the HDD has anything to do with it [09:46] HDD = hard disk drive [09:46] ciao [09:47] hey i have some alias on my ubuntu acount, but i don't remember the source file it runs, is there any way to look this up [09:47] All: Did anyone look at my latest error on PB at: http://pastebin.com/Dh9AMdyq? I need to recover my network again. Was advised to purge Network Manager, as it kept overwriting the /etc/resolv.conf file, so we could not get the nameserver working. When I purged NM it took the wlan0 configs out completely and now having to boot from liveCD to have inet access to fix this latest screw up. HEEEELLLLP!

[10:15] i managed to fix my issue.. mount -o remount,rw :) [10:15] Thx [10:15] I have installed a Hardy 8.04 box as a server - how do I know that I'm getting updates for the software installed on that box [10:15] i.e. if i've installed openoffice on it, or ubuntu-desktop ontop of the server iso? [10:15] !lts [10:15] LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) [10:15] hi i was installed rtl8188su and 8192su under ubuntu 10.04 lts but it isn't worked any ideas [10:16] can someone explain me GRUB2 reinstallation [10:16] ThinkT510: if that was directed at me I am aware of the policy, I'm more interested in the mechanism. [10:16] I will reinstall Windows [10:16] ubuntu has more problems with wuindows drivers [10:16] gigenieks_, you want a good link? [10:16] so, I will need reinstall grub2 [10:16] as I'm running a hardy server, but unsure as to whether all the packages I have installed on it would be candidates for the 5 year support or the 3. [10:16] no [10:16] I read this: [10:16] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [10:17] i just dont understand the difference in last line ---> [10:17] veleoe: What? Explain! [10:17] sudo grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/sdX [10:17] "sdX" [10:17] HOW do i know what to set? [10:17] I have 3 HDD's [10:17] has anyone had problems installing Gimp on 11.04? [10:18] sda, sdb, sdc (sdc has win and kubuntu partitions) [10:18] gigenieks_, run the sudo fdisk-l command [10:18] why this drivers is working in ubuntu 11.04 but not in ubuntu 10.04? [10:18] gigenieks_, whicj=h HD is Ubuntu in [10:18] *which [10:18] sdc5 [10:18] rtl8188su realteck! [10:19] sudo grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/sdX [10:19] dogears:working fine for me [10:19] dogears, not here, you run into any problems? [10:19] but what to set in X place? [10:19] gigenieks_: run fdisk -l [10:19] gigenieks_, this is where you want to be on the page. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Copy%20LiveCD%20Files [10:20] and indentify your disks, and set /dev/sdX to the disk where you'd like grub installed. [10:20] where X = a,b, or c - depending on which disk you're installing to [10:20] gigenieks_, the commands are slightly different. [10:20] gigenieks_, usually the one that your system is looking for a bootmanager (first in boot order list) [10:20] ubuntu has several problem with usb wireless ,this problem needs be resolve [10:21] hmm... [10:21] for example if I set in BIOS [10:21] sdb [10:21] which is 250gb data hdd [10:21] then if i installed on sda [10:21] it wont boot? [10:22] gigenieks_:easiest is let the 1st hdd boot (/dev/sda) and install grub on that [10:22] gigenieks_, generally the mbr of th HD installed in is suggested. [10:22] gigenieks_: wherever the bios looks first, thats where you want the bootloader to be [10:23] here nobody help me [10:23] Okey lets reprase: [10:23] okey [10:24] veleoe, your question is rather vague [10:24] what? [10:24] bye [10:25] grrr.... how can I explain this in english :D [10:25] meaning right now in bios 1st HDD is sdc; but as far as I know my mbr is on sda [10:25] but everything boots [10:26] gigenieks_: each disk has its own mbr [10:26] the bios will likely iterate through the disks until a valid mbr is found [10:26] in other words [10:26] i can choose [10:26] gigenieks_, run this script if you like and pastebin it. http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/ [10:27] dc5ala: tried to install and gave connection error? only on Gimp [10:27] gigenieks_: whichever disk you choose to boot first, that is the mbr that will be obeyed [10:27] dc5ala: Thought [10:28] dc5ala: probably the connection will try again [10:28] dogears, just download problem then? [10:29] which is best C++ process communication library for ubuntu [10:29] i need to read the stdout of a process using C++ [10:30] bugbrains, piping the output of it is not an option? [10:30] dogears, you could try another mirror in package source settings [10:30] fmauro: i execute a process and it prints some text on sucees of failure to stdout [10:30] dc5ala: Yes it was giving weird errors. Thought it may have been something with Unity [10:30] i need it in a c++ code [10:31] Do i understand correctly I ONLY need to set right partion where is Kubuntu installed [10:31] but where is mbr [10:31] WHATEVER [10:31] ? [10:31] it will load either way [10:31] dc5ala: Thanks for your help [10:31] dogears, you could blame Unity for lot of things but this sounds like remote server problem :P [10:31] gigenieks_, what hd is kubuntu in [10:32] bugbrains, you could implement it as a return code. or is the returned text of importance? [10:32] sdc [10:32] sdc5 [10:32] fmauro: returned text [10:32] gigenieks_, itis installed right [10:32] http://paste.ubuntu.com/652319/ [10:32] is important [10:32] bugbrains, let me think. [10:32] gigenieks_, thanks hold on [10:33] dc5ala: I find it very friendly but it is certainly different [10:33] again question i can set WHATEVER HDD i want for example sdb which is 250gb ide data hard drive [10:33] and if I remove it [10:33] I CANT boot [10:33] gigenieks_, sdc5 is kubuntu [10:33] yeah it is [10:33] dogears, you welcome [10:34] that is not the issue or thing that i dont understand [10:34] gigenieks_, can you boot to it now? [10:34] Im in kubuntu [10:34] i will reinstall Windows [10:34] thats why i need to know [10:34] gigenieks_, newer BIOS sometimes also have their own kind of bootmanager (like pressing F8), with that you could theoretically also install grub in your linux drive. but if you want to use grub as main bootmanager you need it in the first one [10:34] about grub [10:35] I have a working RAID set, but I cant mount it here. With over 2,5TB of data in GPT partition. [10:35] hello, i have problem with my chrome, i run it as root once and now when i run it as simple user all preferences are lost, why? [10:35] ok concrete situation in BIOS [10:35] i have sdc hdd [10:35] bugbrains, you could use popen from stdio.h [10:35] gigenieks_, in the terminal run sudo grub-install /dev/sdc and have that HD first in the bios or use the key propmt to have the choice of boot. Also run sudo update-grub after the first command [10:36] All: Dang it's late, later off to Z land 4 me!! Cheers!! :) :) [10:36] gigenieks_, does that make sense to yah.;) [10:36] I will 100% ask this in forums :D [10:36] but i kinda 50% understand of it. [10:36] fmauro: i will try and come back [10:37] if i set mbr on sdc [10:37] wouldn't it fuck windows bootloader? [10:37] cuz windows will be on sdc too [10:37] as is Kubuntu [10:37] gigenieks_, the first command just reloads grub to the mbr , leaving kubuntu as the grub control [10:37] gigenieks_: control the language please [10:38] gigenieks_, yes but grub will see windows and it will be in the grub menu to boot from [10:38] If i know it better i could control :D [10:38] gigenieks_, if you ran the script I posted we could get a little more info as to other options [10:38] Why sould X Server crash on my laptop if there is not pwr supply plugged in? [10:39] nit-wit, sec [10:39] gigenieks_, I have W7 on my hard drive and grub is in the mbr [10:39] with natty [10:39] on the hd [10:42] gigenieks_, if you want to keep the MS bootloader you could use easybcd, but it looks like sda and sdb are data and sdc is a windows OS and kubuntu [10:42] nit-wit: http://paste.ubuntu.com/652337/ [10:42] YES sda and sdb is data [10:42] so it is recommended to set grub to sdc? [10:43] gigenieks_, so do you have a recovery or install disc for windows? [10:43] Is there a laptop power settings for NVidia? Is this what is causing my machine to blow? [10:43] I dont need it [10:43] i have just installation [10:44] gigenieks_, it is already ther run sudo update-grub in kubuntu and put the sdc first in the bios [10:44] spankbot: you could try the logs in your system [10:44] *there [10:44] it is already there.. [10:44] what? [10:44] Windows [10:45] ? [10:45] gigenieks_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [10:45] gigenieks_, yeah look at the top of the script Grub2 (v1.99) is installed in the MBR of /dev/sdc [10:45] i am using 32 bit ubuntu 11.04 ..i want to use 64 bit ubutnu 11.04 ...is it a good decision.. [10:45] I may have found someone w/ the similar Laptop and NVidia problem running FreeBSD [10:46] gigenieks_, I asked about the windows disc as yoiu would use thenm to reload the MS bootloader if needed [10:46] abhinav_singh: yes i also use it and very happy with it(if your cpu support 64-bit) [10:47] lotuspsychje: yes my cpu support 64 bit..but right now i am using 32 bit ...so if i have clean install of ubuntu 64 bit all my data will be gone.. [10:47] gigenieks_, W7 is in the grub menu now if you rebooted you could boot to windows... if the sdc HD is read first in te bios [10:47] grub has windows entry [10:47] abhinav_singh: there are several apps for data backup, after that do a 64 bit clean install [10:48] it could even boot in safe mode [10:48] gigenieks_, yes the script shows it [10:48] but something is wrong with Win7 [10:48] it has bsod [10:48] and i set stupid thing via [10:48] gigenieks_, did you resize it [10:48] can you please name some of themm..i dnt wanna take any risk lotuspsychje [10:48] msconfig Safe mode "minimal" = everythime it goes to safe mode [10:48] and dont boot [10:48] it is not issue of grub [10:48] it is windows issue [10:49] will just reinstall [10:49] whatever [10:49] abhinav_singh: didnt try some myself, software centre would be a good start, or asking in chat whats best data backup app [10:49] so your suggestion is to set sdc as MBR [10:49] gigenieks_, yes the safe=f8 is available choose windows at grub and hit the f8, and run a chkdsk [10:49] gigenieks_, it already is there. [10:50] f8 > chkdsk? [10:50] hi Everyone, I am trying to setup nfs client, but when I run showmount -e it displays "clnt_create: RPC: Program not registered" [10:50] It doesnt have that functionality [10:50] i have portmap and nfs-common installed and portmap is running [10:50] gigenieks_, do you have a install or recovery disc [10:50] could someone help me with this [10:50] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1810605 [10:50] for windows [10:51] i tried to get this working [10:51] but noone helped [10:51] now I have bootable USB Win7 installation [10:51] will reinstall [10:51] get what working?

[10:54] hi guys, i'm using natty on my x220 tablet. i had to upgrade the kernel to 3.0rc7 so i could use my display port instead of only the vga. however it seems that the xserver-xorg-input-wacom doesnt work anymore. any ideas how to fix this, or do i have to compile my own version against the new kernel headers? [10:54] I've replaced the cable, I've change ethernet port on the "router", neither of them fix it. I've got a VOIP phone working with no problems on the same router [10:55] saus4ges: you have the correct eth card driver installed? [10:55] not sure lotuspsychje. I do know that it was working (without a single disconnect) until last night, and I've not done an upgrade [10:55] lotuspsychje: so i will have to take backup of my home folder only right... [10:56] hello [10:56] abhinav_singh: yes, all the installed 32 bit programs have to be reinstalled after on the 64-bit versions [10:56] Okey enough talking in other words I now reinstall windows in the same partion as it is now [10:56] then it is recommended to set mbr [10:56] sdc [10:57] if i set it for example sda [10:57] which is data 80gb [10:57] and remove it [10:57] saus4ges, things fall apart [10:57] i couldnt boot right? [10:57] bugbrains, I put some code together quickly, hope it helps http://paste.ubuntu.com/652349/ [10:57] saus4ges: so what did change after last night? [10:57] Hi guys.. I'm on natty. Anytime I hibernate my machine it goes into suspend mode and I can't not resume. I have tried several key combinations but to no avail. Please how can I solve this problem? [10:58] fmauro: your help is well appreciated :) [10:58] is there any software which can check what are the 32 bit softwares installled in my system and when i upgrade to 64 bit ..it can reinstall them lotuspsychje [10:58] unity 2d without compiz right ß === SSetoo is now known as SseTuu [10:58] someone confirm me? [10:58] nothing lotuspsychje, it was working when I left it and when I came back this morning it was refusing to connect to eth0, only wireless. Funnily enough, I've just noticed that I can't change the wireless network either (it's connected but I can't disconnect) [10:58] abhinav_singh: ask in chat, don't know if something like that exists [10:59] okay [10:59] lotuspsychje this may be the solution [10:59] is there any software which can check what are the 32 bit softwares installled in my system and when i upgrade to 64 bit ..it can reinstall them [10:59] unity 2d without compiz right ß [10:59] lotuspsychje http://tutanhamon.com.ua/technovodstvo/NVIDIA-UNIX-driver/#general-information [10:59] gigenieks_, see yah [11:00] is it as I said?

Will let you know, thanks for the help [11:03] gigenieks_, so I get the impresson your afraid of losing the MS bootloader, it can be reloaded with the install disc if needed, putting grub in any other then the sdc I woudn't advise [11:03] bugbrains, note that this will only print stdout and not stderr. you have to append 2>&1 for that [11:04] so if i set to sdc it could make windows ubootable [11:04] ? [11:05] gigenieks_, no reda closer [11:05] *read [11:05] gigenieks_, answer this question please. Did you resize windows to install kubuntu? [11:06] I shrinked via Disc Management in W7 > installed on "unallocated space" [11:06] gigenieks_, did you see if windows booted before you installed kubuntu? [11:06] Which font does ubuntu uses?

[11:07] yes I did [11:07] alex--: it should be free [11:07] iceroot: ^ [11:07] alex--: but maybe check the licence first [11:07] Ok I will go do all that stuff if worst comes I will be back here ----> [11:07] gigenieks_, stange the script shows everything to be okay, but yet windows does not show in the repair [11:07] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1810605 [11:08] it is not strange [11:08] *strange [11:08] fmauro: how to get stderr [11:08] in forums one answered [11:08] that repair disc have [11:08] minimal of boot files [11:08] NO DRIVERS [11:08] and windows is on sata hdd [11:08] gigenieks_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [11:08] problem is that [11:09] I DONT KNOW, and noone did help to find those drivers [11:09] if could find them then it would be so much easier [11:09] gigenieks_, is the disc a standard install or a recovery disc [11:09] now i have just install [11:09] iceroot: can i downlolad it from somewhere? [11:09] bugbrains, instead of for example "ls -r" use "ls -r 2>&1" as argument for popen() [11:09] the font i mean [11:09] gigenieks_, that disc has sata drivers [11:10] should anyway [11:10] ofcourse! [11:10] I just have old motherboard [11:10] fmauro: ok the it will give both stdout and stderr on variable output [11:10] so HARD to find those sata drivers for repair usb I had [11:11] bugbrains, afaik yes [11:11] gigenieks_, so you have tried to boot to windows from the grub menu and get a bsod [11:11] I even get to load it!! [11:11] via safe mode [11:11] how can I get gnome-terminal to use chrome instead of firefox to open links I click on? [11:11] but i did some mistakes in msconfig [11:11] and it has bsod [11:11] so i will just reinstall [11:11] Is there a way to create a deb file from an installed program ? [11:11] gigenieks_, there is a command loine choice in that safe boot menu right [11:11] *line [11:12] dooglus: maybe set chrome to default browser option? [11:12] no [11:12] lotuspsychje: I've set chrome to be my preferred web browser [11:12] there is no cmd [11:12] if that is what u ask [11:12] yes [11:12] if I could i would done chkdsk /r /f [11:12] lotuspsychje: if I type 'gnome-www-browser', I get chrome [11:12] lotuspsychje: but gnome-terminal has other ideas [11:12] I will ask this ----> [11:13] gigenieks_, yeah I suspect you would have, the guys at #windows would probably be more helpful as far as getting MS going if you still want to try, just suggesting [11:13] where can I find my XServer logs?

Can I create a net deb file of that application ? [11:14] net=new* [11:14] If i set for example mbr to sdb (250 data) then it is SAFE to assume that everything will boot fine BUT [11:14] lotuspsychje: I'll take a look. using firefox :) [11:15] if i remove it; I cant boot to kubuntu OR windows [11:15] right? [11:15] gigenieks_, grub is in the correct place and is not causing the bsod [11:15] however sdc would be "smarter" but a little riskier? [11:15] lotuspsychje: I don't have a 'system' button [11:15] Im not saying that!! [11:15] im saying that when i install [11:15] windows [11:15] NOW [11:15] my home folder is about 90 gb ...how do i take backup of it [11:16] lotuspsychje: what does "Go to System --> Administration --> Preferred Applications" run?

[11:17] lotuspsychje: ps -ef | grep -i pref before and after [11:17] Anyone know how to enable ACL for my eCryptFS mount? [11:17] lotuspsychje: because I'll have the program on my computer, just the menu isn't running to start it from [11:18] gigenieks_, when you install windows to sdc1 it will put the ms bootloader to the sdc mbr so you would reload grub or use easybcd [11:18] dooglus, it's /usr/bin/gnome-default-applications-properties === nicoco is now known as Guest19233 [11:19] is it possible to convert a filesystem from ext4 to ext3 without losing the data? Or will I have to reformat it completely and then put the (backed up) data back on it? [11:19] fmauro: thanks. that'll fix it. it's showing 'firefox' [11:19] fmauro: I was using exo-preferred-applications before - that's the XFCE4 way [11:19] jrib: should I be sing errors there? my XServer just crashed and cant find anything which reports the error [11:20] spankbot: check ~/.xsession-errors as well [11:20] dooglus, strange how bash doesn't reference the xface one. oh well. if it works now.. [11:20] An_Ony_Moose, you would want to back that up anyway that is riskie [11:20] *risky [11:20] nit-wit: nvm I'll just reformat it and put the data back on then [11:21] An_Ony_Moose, that is what I would do, are you trying to have a partition the Windows can read [11:21] *that [11:21] my HP printer can't print but it is registered as it is [11:21] nit-wit: no, but trying to mount the ext4 partition in ubuntu (as the root partition) said that it was trying to read outside the device. It mounts perfectly fine in debian [11:21] Test? [11:22] An_Ony_Moose, hmm root partition what is in it. [11:23] nit-wit: an ubuntu installation generated by debootstrap + some manual configuration [11:23] here's a tricky one - I have a CentOS live CD image, and I've been trying to make a bootable USB from it using ubuntu 11.04. is that possible? [11:23] nit-wit: such as a kernel etc [11:23] I thought the USB creator program was meant to be able to do it, but it doesn't seem to like the .iso file [11:23] I have ubuntu 10.04 .. .should I upgrade to 11 ? [11:23] dooglus, you could try unetbootin [11:24] An_Ony_Moose, sounds more like a faulty setup not surec it is the partition type [11:24] is it a big difference? [11:24] nit-wit: I'll try it anyway [11:24] VictorCL, it depends. [11:24] An_Ony_Moose, follow your bliss. ;) [11:24] nit-wit: only 500-odd MB to copy, so I'm fine [11:24] brb testing [11:24] fmauro: ok, thanks [11:24] cool [11:24] !unity | VictorCL [11:24] VictorCL: Unity is the default UI for Ubuntu 11.04. Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. You can still boot to GNOME; see !classic. [11:24] VictorCL: there's a big interface change. Maybe try a live cd and see if you like it first. There's no need to upgrade and if you like 10.04, you can just wait until 12.04 and upgrade then (to the next scheduled LTS) [11:25] if I want to upgrade ... is it too complicated? .. will I have to make a backup ? [11:25] My mouse doesn't automatically work at startup. I had to press ESC a few times before the cursor can be moved. Notifications show up and fade away, though, which shows that the system isn't actually freezing. [11:25] i am going to do a clean install of 64 bit from my 32 bit machine..is there any software which will select all the installed package in my 32 bit machine and when i am done with 64 bit ubuntu installation it should reinstall the 64 bit versions of my installed packages [11:25] !upgrade | VictorCL [11:25] VictorCL: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [11:26] I dont like much this interface .. too simple [11:26] VictorCL: it's not complicated (see ubottu). You need to upgrade 10.04 -> 10.10 -> 11.04. As for backups, you should have them anyway [11:26] still having trouble creating folders :/ [11:26] VictorCL: right click -> create folder? [11:26] VictorCL, What are you using? [11:27] limnoflava, tell us more about your system, is it a usb mouse, what version of ubuntu are you running? [11:27] if I want to create a folder inside another folder ,, I select the folder .. then I go .. create folder .. and it cdoesnt create the foder where I want it [11:27] it put it anywhere else [11:27] well many small details [11:28] fmauro, I'm running 10.10. It doesn't matter, I use a laptop and both the trackpad and any USB mouse won't be able to move a few seconds from startup unless I press ESC repeatedly.

This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !attitude [11:29] fmauro: I'm trying unetbootin. it asks for the type of distro, I chose 'centos', then it asks for the version, and offers '4' or '5'. I have '6'. reckon it really matters?

[11:34] I've tried a tutorial using debootstrap, it didn't work for me [11:35] An_Ony_Moose, you can use a netboot image and put it on a usb-drive [11:35] An_Ony_Moose, or is USB in general not an option [11:36] fmauro: the latter [11:36] hi. i'm using evolution client to Gmail by IMAP (ubu 11.04 x64). When i delete message, this message isn't deleted on gmail (i was checking it on www). Is it normal? [11:37] An_Ony_Moose, is the target bios PXE capable? [11:37] mjanp: did you tell it to remove stuff from the server? [11:37] exactly:-) [11:37] fmauro: I believe so, but I have zero experience with that and have no other machines available [11:37] I am preparing to apt-get install xorg and fluxbox etc - how can i prevent apt- from pulling in all xorg drivers except from the ones i actually need for my system? (intel)? [11:38] An_Ony_Moose, so you have a machine you want to install ubuntu to, no optical drive and no usb? [11:40] hi everyone [11:40] mgolish: i dont know where is this option [11:40] fmauro: no. But a running debian installation [11:40] An_Ony_Moose: maybe clone clean ubuntu system to the drive you want [11:41] lotuspsychje: where do I get this clean ubuntu system? Is using a virtual machine an option? [11:41] i'm trying to install 11.04, but i get an error: not possible to install bootloader to the specified location - /dev/sda...can anyone help me regarding this? === KNUBBIG_ is now known as KNUBBIG [11:42] An_Ony_Moose: download the ubuntu .iso and some clone apps might copy it to desired drive? [11:42] I have an SSH problem. Why is the output of those two commands different?: 1) ssh user@machine (goes into shell) echo $PATH; 2) ssh user@machine 'echo $PATH' === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [11:42] An_Ony_Moose, the problem is getting the system to boot from where you have the initial system installed. this is no easy feat. is it a laptop? [11:42] lotuspsychje: then I would install a live ubuntu image to the hard drive [11:43] I how can I record output sound on 11.04? [11:44] i'm trying to install 11.04, but i get an error: not possible to install bootloader to the specified location - /dev/sda...can anyone help me regarding this? [11:44] An_Ony_Moose: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/5-alternativ-ways-install-ubuntu-linux/ [11:44] fmauro: No, it's not a laptop. I got it up to the point where the kernel was loaded, but it couldn't mount the root partition [11:44] I have Arch installed on a partition, and also GRUB2 installed to /dev/sda. I just created a USB installer pen with USB-Creator from launchpad, and when i boot my machine and choose to boot from the usbpen, it loads grub on /dev/sda and starts arch instead of grub on the usbpen to start ubuntu. How come that be? Im using a MacBook Pro 5,5. [11:45] fmauro: something about an address being outside the physical disk. Even though it mounted fine in debian [11:45] Who wants to hold my hand through a ubuntu natty on macbook 2.1 install? Mainly, how to get it to boot from dvd ?! [11:45] duffman: did you try holding C while booting? [11:46] An_Ony_Moose: yes, the screen goes blank for a good 20 seconds and then goes to "missing operating system" [11:46] i did a md5sum of the dvd image, it ads up. [11:46] (just in case) [11:46] duffman: that's where my ideas end, sorry :( [11:46] An_Ony_Moose: np :) thank you. [11:47] An_Ony_Moose, how did you manage to load the kernel? [11:47] An_Ony_Moose, did you set up a partition, and make a grub entry after installing the root fs? [11:47] pngl: user@machine 'echo $PATH' doen't read your remote .bashrc/.profile [11:47] fmauro: debootstrap to the empty partition, chroot into it, install the kernel, exit from chroot then update-grub and grub found it [11:47] duffman, for some hints have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook [11:48] thank you dc5ala [11:48] llutz: thank you [11:48] An_Ony_Moose, k sounds good. But it wouldn't mount / [11:49] Got a problem with mdadm assembling a md127 device instead of md0 on reboot. The only solution i found on the web doesn't help me. Has anyone encountered such an issue? [11:49] fmauro: that's right. I forgot the exact error message [11:50] fmauro: something about the filesystem exceeding the bounds of the physical disk [11:50] fmauro: tried both ext4 and ext3 [11:50] (excuse my use of enter as punctuation. I'll stop it) [11:50] An_Ony_Moose, and you are sure it booted the kernel and it was not grub saying it couldn't boot the image in the first place? [11:51] An_Ony_moose: http://dimitar.me/clone-disk-drives-with-ubuntu/ [11:51] fmauro: yes. It dumped me at an initramfs console [11:51] Is there an IRC channel for the Banshee media player? [11:52] !banshee | antihero [11:52] antihero: 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 [11:52] lotuspsychje: I know how to use dd. I just don't have an image of an ubuntu install [11:52] An_Ony_Moose: got it to load by holding alt, for future refference, cross fingers now, dvd is loaded and should be installing :D [11:52] An_Ony_Moose, so far I would have gone about it the same as you have. I'm gonna try and virtualize it. got time? [11:53] this is so much better than loading OS X [11:53] fmauro: yup [11:53] antihero: check thier website to see if they have an irc channel [11:53] duffman: nice, congratulations [11:53] Hey, I want to mirror a local directory to a remote one on an ftp which is mounted via curlftpfs. But rsync gives me this: rsync: mkstemp "/home/fabian/Downloads/server/.test.LI30de" failed: Operation not supported (95) Any ideas? [11:54] fmauro: I left out some details, the tutorial I used is here http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2010/01/debootstrap-minimal-debian-ubuntu-installation/ [11:54] I'm doing OK with MPD but Banshee has neat Unity integration, except appears to suck for album artists [11:54] :D [11:55] An_Ony_Moose, good, I'll be sure to follow that and another thing, you are using debian stable? [11:56] fmauro: yes [11:56] can anybody help me how to do reset settings in ubuntu [11:56] i'm trying to install 11.04, but i get an error: not possible to install bootloader to the specified location - /dev/sda...can anyone help me regarding this? it is in hardware raid setup [11:56] dinesh_: clarify what settings exactly. [11:56] something i did.. total desktop settings has changed.. i dont know how to correct it [11:57] rigved: I remember having this, too. I had to install Ubuntu without the bootloader, boot into a live cd and then manually install grub to /dev/blabla, where blabla is most probably sthing like md0 or md1 [11:57] user settings are in various .* files in their home dir. If you remove the files/dirs it will reset those. some are in 'gconf' settings sort of like a gnome setting regiestry. so it depends on the setting [11:58] dinesh_: I recall the (unsupported by this channel) utilty Ubuntu-tweak has a way to reset/backup/restore user/gnome settings also. [11:58] hi all! [11:58] Could anyone help me please? [11:59] KNUBBIG: i'l still in the setup phase...i can set it to /dev/blahblah right now itself. how do i find out where to install it? [11:59] state the problem and see blackalegator . [11:59] dr_willis settings are in various .* files in their home dir. If you remove the files/dirs it will reset those. some are in 'gconf' settings sort of like a gnome setting regiestry. so it depends on the setting [11:59] lolmaus: Which particular "solution" did you try? There seem to be quite a number of people that have had this problem with varying solutions. [11:59] I want my smb share to be mounted on boot. Ive set up the fstab. Though now I need to make an init script which will be launched after network is initialised. Any idea? [12:00] rigved: mhh i dunno for sure, you need a console [12:00] rigved: if you've got nothing to wreak havoc on just try /md /md0 /md1 I'm not entirely sure [12:00] DistroJockey, the solution was to remove optional parameters from mdadm.conf and run "update-initramfs -u". [12:01] blackalegator, are you using the default network-manager? [12:01] KNUBBIG: ok. so in the terminal i'll try using mount to find out what all is mounted... [12:01] lolmaus: from the ARRAY line right? [12:01] DistroJockey, yup [12:01] rigved: yes or there was a command to list all raids .. I think dmraid or sth [12:01] fmauro, Yes! [12:01] DistroJockey, i also noticed that blkid, mdadm md0 and mdadm md127 show three different UUIDs. md127 is unmountable. [12:02] fmauro it is 10 minutes from my ubuntu installed [12:02] uhm... [12:02] How do i manually check initramfs for mdadm entries? I suspect it has an obsolette one. [12:02] does ubuntu only use grub.cfg and not menu.lst? [12:03] blackalegator, okay if you extend your fstab entry with user so a regular user can mount it, you can use the network-manager.d scripts folder to launch stuff as soon as you establish a conneciton. [12:03] lolmaus: Maybe this thread helps: http://fossplanet.com/f12/mdadm-device-reassignment-106141/ [12:03] phoque_uni: grub2 uses grub.cfg, the old grub used menu.lst [12:03] KNUBBIG: yes, there is dmraid...i'll check...thanks! [12:03] rigved: np, good luck :) [12:03] fmauro, how do I do the first step? [12:03] dr_willis, I see [12:03] fmauro: how's it going? :) [12:04] what will happen if I modify grub.cfg to disable the discrete GPU and there is a kernel update? === jay is now known as Guest66868 [12:04] An_Ony_Moose, 1 minute left until i have the 1.1 gb debian stable image [12:04] blackalegator: maybe pysdm will help automount smb [12:04] Hi, i have tried http://radu.cotescu.com/how-to-install-canon-lbp-printers-in-ubuntu/ for canon lbp3010 but it didnt work [12:04] fmauro: ah ok [12:04] blackalegator, alright you open your fstab. [12:04] I want to mirror a local directory to a remote one on an ftp which is mounted via curlftpfs. But rsync gives me this: rsync: mkstemp "/home/fabian/Downloads/server/.test.LI30de" failed: Operation not supported (95) Any ideas? [12:04] fmauro: thanks for going to all the trouble of installing debian :D [12:05] fmauro, done [12:05] phoque_uni, but grub.cfg will be generated, see the top lines in that file [12:05] lotuspsychje, what? how??! It is a fstab gui editing tool [12:05] An_Ony_Moose, don't worry man, I'll do anything to avoid having to study for my upcoming discrete mathematics exam :D [12:06] fmauro: haha [12:06] An_Ony_Moose, are you his examinator or what? xD [12:06] blackalegator: pysdm is gui tool for automount ntfs drives, it helped me alot on natty [12:06] ive had pysdm... err.. break things.. :) backup your fstab first.. [12:06] blackalegator: No. He just wants to have something to do instead of studying? [12:07] blackalegator, alright your entry will look somewhat like so: //user@SERVER/share /mountpoint smbfs ro,noauto 0,0 [12:07] fmauro, why noauto? [12:07] fmauro, Ive set it before already [12:08] dr_willis: working fine here :p [12:08] fmauro, //192.168.0.160/Music /home/oleg/Музыка cifs credentials=/root/.smbcreds,rw,iocharset=utf8,setuids,file_mode=0666,dir_mode=0777 0 0 [12:08] smbcreds has my passs [12:08] blackalegator, not needed if it's going to fail to mount on boot anyway. but you can leave it if you want. append user to ro,noauto (ofcourse you will want rw instead of ro) [12:09] ccp send_data error exit on canon3010 [12:09] fmauro, append user to ro? [12:09] KNUBBIG: no, it's not able to. one possible option is something like /dev/mapper/isw_djajajc_m17x_raid0 Linux device mapper. should i try it? [12:09] blackalegator, good make it: [...]dir_mode=0777,user 0 0 [12:09] fmauro, kay [12:09] rigved: yes [12:10] DistroJockey, i tried "mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 --update=homehost" (is that what your link suggests?). It assembled well but the problem persists after reboot. [12:10] oh weird [12:10] blackalegator, now if you open a terminal and type mount /home/oleg/Музыка it should mount your share [12:10] fmauro, it does [12:10] I want to mirror a local directory to a remote one on an ftp which is mounted via curlftpfs. But rsync gives me this: rsync: mkstemp "/home/fabian/Downloads/server/.test.LI30de" failed: Operation not supported (95) Any ideas? [12:10] radeon.modeset=0 on boot does disable the GPU [12:10] but doesnt turn it off [12:11] can someone send me the white ubuntu logo, the one on applications menu, from 10.10 ? [12:11] blackalegator, good, now open a text editor of your choice [12:11] i want icon on xubuntu! :) [12:11] fmauro, *** soz it doesnt [12:11] fmauro, ROOT REQUIRED [12:11] my unity2d launcher not responding, how to restart it [12:12] ? [12:12] blackalegator, k we'll figure that out in a second. don't worry about it for now [12:12] Hey guys, I have ubuntu 11.04 on my laptop, and a solaris server. used to work fine, but recently I've started seeing "broken pipe" issues with SSH, the thing is, if I use windows to connect to the server everything is working fine, any ideas? [12:12] KNUBBIG: no. i'll try your earlier method. continue without bootloader. then i'll try to install using live cd...thnaks again! [12:12] fmauro, nope thats not the prob it has an error opening up my file with pass. Ill set its permissions to777 [12:13] fmauro, but is there any use of it at all than? xD [12:13] I've got this error: http://postimage.org/image/2f9b88yf8/ [12:13] rigved: mh okay, sorry. Good luck again, upon reboot you might have to reassemble your RAID via dmraid -ay (I think) [12:13] When I'm installing w7 into virtualbox [12:13] what can be? [12:14] lolmaus: The assemble command may need more devices, not sure though. Sorry, I'm out of ideas atm. Good luck. [12:14] blackalegator, if it wont work over fstab it doesn't matter. Letme write a script. just a sec [12:14] klevison, is that a valid win7 image? [12:14] KNUBBIG: ok. will it cause problems with my windows setup? [12:14] fmauro: installing debian now? [12:14] klevison: both systems 32 bit? [12:14] both are 64 [12:15] An_Ony_Moose, right, jeez multitask :D booting virtual machine now.

[12:15] lotuspsychje, is 20gb enough? [12:16] klevison: loaded the win7 iso into virtual machine? [12:16] phoque_uni: /etc/rc.local [12:16] klevison: it's enough for installing it but for working on it you might need more space [12:16] llutz, that isn't too early or something? [12:16] fmauro: no problem [12:16] I only wanna install itunes into w7 [12:16] KNUBBIG: ok. thanks! [12:16] klevison: If you don't get an answer here, you might also try in the official vbox channel [12:17] rigved: again, no problem :-) [12:17] * p1l0t [12:17] !upstart | phoque_uni [12:17] phoque_uni: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.

[12:20] then you need the gtk -dev packages [12:20] my dvd is already mounted [12:20] how can i know which pubplic dns i use for resolving domain names to ips? [12:20] blackalegator, remove or comment out your entry in fstab because now they will overlap. [12:20] klevison: not sure, but you could check dvd/iso options in the virtual machine? [12:21] jane-: if you have a router, you can't. unless you check your router settings [12:21] fmauro, done [12:21] how can I install gtk -dev [12:21] jane-: "less /etc/resolv.conf" "dig host.example.com" check the "server" statement [12:21] fmauro, wait how do u comment out in fstab? [12:21] ronin___: apt-cache search libgtk |grep dev [12:21] ronin___: via the package manager tools...

[12:21] fmauro, done [12:21] blackalegator, because the script mounts the share now [12:21] lotuspsychje, how can I do it? [12:22] fmauro, okay, where do I put it? [12:22] jane-: it has nothing to do with a "dsl company" but the router. some of them show what public dns they use, some don't [12:22] wols ok. [12:22] llutz iam on windows atm. [12:22] /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/12-cifsmount (root rights req) [12:22] blackalegator, /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/12-cifsmount (root rights req) [12:23] llutz: typical home routers bring their own caching DNS proxy. so you never see the ISP dns server [12:23] Can you make parameters follow midi envelope clips with jack audio?

[12:24] fmauro: thanks :) [12:24] wols so how do i get on there websit? [12:24] linuxR: 'graphical console modes' ? you mean you want a normal console and not a 'framebuffer' enabled console? [12:24] dr_willis: well, the thing is I don't know if i really want to switch to the new desktop manager, Unity... [12:24] blackalegator, try disconnecting and the share should vanish. or even better, try rebooting to see if it works properly [12:24] klevison: check something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8j1Fo2KRZM [12:24] dr_willis, exactly...as simple as possible, no special graphics mode at all [12:25] tim167: download a livecd and see if you like it before deciding to upgrade [12:25] fmauro Thank you sooo much! [12:25] dr_willis: on the other hand I don't want to be stuck in this version forever... [12:25] I have a situatio where special console modes appear to make the system -very- slow [12:25] blackalegator, working?

(or slower at least) === Jupiter is now known as Guest53112 [12:26] ThinkT510: ah ok interesting...and have you tried that? [12:26] tim167: but i think gnome2 will be fully removed in 11.10 and replaced with gnome3 [12:26] my router says Primary DNS Server 119.159.255.37 [12:26] Secondary DNS Server 203.99.163.240 , how can i know which public dns the ip refers, whats the name of that dns 2. how can i make my own dns and get the list of all the websites of the world?

[12:30] dr_willis: what do u mean? [12:30] linuxR: i think thats managed by some service /etc/init/console-setup.conf perhaps. [12:30] ronin___: package manager shows numerous libgtk-* packages... [12:31] linuxR: i tend to use the 'text' option and just start gdm as needed. that may disable more then just the nofb [12:32] ronin___: perhaps if you explained why you need a libgtk package, we could better assist you in helping you find what you need. [12:32] dr_willis, will try that [12:32] hello guys [12:32] Pici: I wanna write a program for gnome application as my university project [12:33] lotuspsychje, is there a error before .. but is too fast [12:33] llutz how do you know and how can i know [12:33] I cant take printscreen [12:33] :( [12:33] klevison: what you think its about now?

[12:33] lotuspsychje, I cant read it [12:33] is too fast [12:34] ronin___: theres mostlikely a great many -dev packages you need to install to compile a gnome app. [12:34] llutz any windows command you know fo r that or any external web?

[12:36] linuxR: odd. it definatly does a lot here.. has for the last 2 releases... disabled gdm, disables pymouth, and other stuff gets turned off [12:36] jane-: http://www.dnswatch.info seems to do it online [12:36] I installed gedit [12:36] linuxR: do you have a /dev/fb0 ? (frame buffer device) [12:37] any command to view the frame buffer ?

[12:46] ah thanks [12:46] or try alt-f2 and run 'xterm' i think its isntgalled bydefault also [12:46] fmauro:thnks it should be work now [12:46] * hagus needs to write this down. [12:46] sweet, cool [12:46] its rather fundamental stuff hagus :) once you start using it. [12:46] icehost mentioned pidgnin or something like that. [12:47] hagus, ctrl-alt-f7 will return you to gnome [12:47] alt-ctrl-f1 thoruhg f6 are the 'consoles' F7 gets you back to X in most cases [12:47] fmauro:is ther any smart photo editor for websit logo in ubuntu with out gimp like photoshope in windows? [12:47] Ok, thanks folks. You have have been a great help [12:47] Pidgin is an Im client.. no idea how that would be related to a 'xterminal' program [12:47] No idea why you would want to remove python either... :) [12:48] sweet, you can either try gimp for photo-editing, or inkscape [12:48] sweet, inkscape is vector graphics [12:48] fmauro: how's it going? :) [12:48] I was trying to make a fresh install of python, dr_willis. [12:48] Did not realise that so many things depended on it. [12:49] hagus: so you managed to some how break python? apt-get has a --reinstall option.... :) [12:49] An_Ony_Moose, Debian installer is done. now booting and following "that thing you sent me" :D [12:49] reinstalling things.. i find often dose not fix things like people are used to in 'windows' [12:50] so if I did sudo apt-get --reinstall when I get to ctrl-alt-f1, things should begin to get back to normal? [12:50] fmauro: thanks! [12:50] hagus: i would install ubuntu-desktop first... [12:50] ah [12:50] noted === NotTribaal is now known as Tribaal [12:50] then read some apt-get docs.... :) [12:50] im not sure i even want to ask how you broke python. [12:50] * hagus takes the plunge and presses ctrl_alt_f1 [12:50] * hagus takes the plunge and presses ctrl_alt_f2 [12:51] hagus: there are irc clients for the consoles also.. [12:51] i'm looking for a way to stream video on my web page that doesn't require flash.. what can be used for that? [12:51] Oh, so I can stay here even if I feel that I am on the other side of the moon :) [12:52] Thanks, dr_willis :) [12:52] hagus: and it's Alt+F7 to get back to X (usually) === alex-- is now known as MTA [12:52] ok, ty DistroJockey :) [12:52] hagus: np :) [12:52] zamba: ogg, webm, dozens of video codecs out there that can stream but they may need a server.. or you just let the people down,oad the video. [12:53] dr_willis: Thank you very much === MTA is now known as alex-- [12:55] Hello, I'm having trouble with GRUB2. First, Windows wiped out grub so I reinstalled it. Now, the Ubuntu entry in my grub doesn't work (it gives me a black screen basically), but the Windows entry works fine. I can boot into my Ubuntu installation by using command line (linux /vmlinuz, initrd /initrd.img, boot). Any idea why my Ubuntu entry won't let me boot?

[13:00] * dr_willis still wonders how hagus broke python. [13:00] I downloaded several different versions of python. [13:00] and dare we ask why? :) [13:01] I then decided to get rid of some of them but 2.7 would not go away. [13:01] It was undeletable - I can understand why now. [13:01] It should have been even more undeletable to stop idiots like me. [13:01] guys can anyone give me link where I can download kernel for server in deb variant [13:02] and the reason for the whole snake dance in the first place was? [13:02] I am trying to convert various image format. I have written a script to convert psd file which can be seen in http://pastebin.com/DHYZX5hG. But the script which use imagemagick is not converting images.but I can manually convert images with convert command [13:02] I was trying to work out how to get python apps working in a share-hosting environment. [13:03] Hello! Three weeks before I was installed the Ati Radeon HD 6670 in my computer under Ubuntu 10.04. I had a lot of problems with ati drivers and usualy my system in booting, message me "checking battery state" and then died . The problems were solved when I made upgraded to 11.04 with "radeon" vga driver. But suddenly yesterday the same message had rise. What should I do to fix it? I was [13:03] searching the internet, but nothing useful found. [13:03] Packages like turbogears seem to want 2.5 or something like that. [13:03] An_Ony_Moose, alright I've followed the guide. so far no issues. I'm going to try and boot the VM into the new kernel and fs [13:03] However, I have given up the unequal fight :) [13:04] hagus: well if the apps were doing things right i think they can specically call the version of python they need to use. [13:04] * hagus is just an old codger who plowters around with things that he should not. [13:06] how to find my file system is ext3 or ext4 [13:07] babu: run "mount" [13:07] babu, dont you remember what you selected when yoou installed it? [13:07] blackalegator, I forgot to tell you to chmod +x the script. or it won't run [13:07] is there any possibility to recover files on ext4 [13:08] babu, have you seen the linka bove given by ubottu? [13:09] Hello, I need help. === DASDSA is now known as DASDAS [13:10] Can somebody help me? [13:10] with? [13:10] and the problem is?.... [13:10] Its about Unitz [13:10] Unity [13:10] and the problem is?................ [13:10] ;) [13:11] Well Unity 3 D uses Compiy [13:11] and Compiz has got a Desktop Wall [13:11] And if i move a window to the edge and then try to maximise [13:12] It maximise where the window is most port on it [13:12] hey guys, I have a hp dvt7 quad with 8GB RAM, how big should my swap partition be? [13:12] destinydriven, 8GB of ram? do you even need swap? [13:12] An_Ony_Moose, it appears I have made a mistake, gonna retry from the initial snapshot [13:12] no swap destinydriven [13:12] faint545: its advised [13:13] hey guys i have an older p4 machine...since upgrading to 11.04 i have experienced nothing but locks and weird screen drawing issues...when remoted in via vnc.. [13:13] And if i move a window to the edge and then try to maximise [13:13] It maximise where the window is most port on it [13:13] dasdsdsa: ok cool, thanks [13:13] not sure if it happens local cause majority of the time i use it remote.. [13:13] dasdsdsa: it maxamizes to the monitor contatning the largest % of the window... thats how it normally works here... [13:14] destinydriven: Do you plan to suspend. [13:14] ? [13:14] zes willis [13:14] destinydriven, you'll never run out of memory [13:14] yes [13:14] dr_willis how to stop [13:14] t [13:14] faint545: nice :D I'm happy with that [13:14] destinydriven: If you plan to hibernate, you'll need to have at least as much swap as RAM. [13:14] dasdsdsa: thats how it has worked for years.. what are you expecting it to do exactly? its a feature of twinview i thought. Not compiz. [13:15] dasdsdsa: thats exactly how i want it to work normally. [13:15] dr_willis, yes but earlier it was not bad because there were only horizontal [13:15] dr_willis, now in unity there are vertical too [13:15] 2x2 [13:15] or so [13:15] yes [13:15] no idea what you just said about horiz/vert.

[13:16] well in unity [13:16] dr_willis in unity there are two rows [13:16] I would like to format a partition so that it changes its UUID. What's the simpliest way to do that? [13:16] Pici: good call, I had totally forgotten about that part [13:17] Hey all [13:17] lolmaus: tune2fs can change the uuid without reformating [13:17] dr_willis earlier in ubuntu 10.10 it was so too but only if i moved the window right or left [13:17] dr_willis now it is top and bottom too [13:17] dasdsdsa: You've always had the option to use vertically oriented workspaces, its just a change of default settings in unity. [13:17] Pici, yes, super === maxx is now known as Guest31193 [13:18] Pici, went the ubuntu desktop route....trying out full disk encryption [13:18] Pici: i told dr_willis that but he did not understand me [13:18] dasdsdsa: Log a bug if you think its a problem. It looks like it is working as intended to me. [13:18] Pici: did not this annoy you ? [13:18] aetas: I'm sorry but I don't have any experience with disk encryption, you're better off asking the channel. [13:18] yes it works as intended but it annoys me [13:19] dasdsdsa: It doesn't annoy me at all. It works as I would expect it to. [13:20] Pici: I have got often windows which are a bit more on workspace 2, because i have got open lots of windows, but it should stay on workspace 1 [13:22] Good morning. I am trying to connect a file share on Active Directory, but when I mount, I get "Resource temporarily unavailable" [13:23] only annouyance i can think of is if the window is down to the bottom and the whole title is on workspace 1, and i maxamize, it goes to 3 (down 1) i would think it should go by where the title bar is shown as a priority [13:23] what does file shareing have to do with Active Directory [13:23] I got my controlls to the right side.. so i basically cant maxamize somtning to workspace2. if its part way on ws#2 . without first going to ws #2 :0 [13:24] I find i just dont use workspaces in unity very much . I just maxamize all my apps and alt-tab about [13:24] i found this command metacity --replace fixes problem when i type in termanl [13:24] i have to authenticate through active directory to access the drive (at least that's my understanding of AD) [13:24] how do i perminately set this ....cause when i exit terminal it goes back on... [13:25] shadow98: use the exit command, dont just hit the terminal close button.. perhaps. [13:25] shadow98: theres also 'fusion-icon' or some other indicator-applet tools that can let you select metacity, or compiz via a menu. [13:28] http://askubuntu.com/questions/30334/list-of-application-indicators DisPlex indicator-applet has some features of the old fusion-icon tool to help in getting compiz under controll. === KNUBBIG is now known as KNUBBIG_ === Rudemeister is now known as Guest82013 [13:33] An_Ony_Moose, it didn't work for me either but it is grub that is failing for me. === serkus is now known as Guest7767 === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [13:36] hey guys, i want to install "openssh-server" [13:36] how do i do it ?

[13:43] VictorCL, wait until it closes and and look at the log file it created in your home dir [13:43] The program 'netbeans' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: [13:44] david_bru: those are probably real numbers, rather than characters representing numbers. ie: it's raw binary data coming through [13:44] i'm running ubuntu on virtualbox and i managed to change my mac and connect to the internet last time without restarting but i forgot how [13:44] how do you launch it? [13:44] VictorCL, you will have to get the name of the executable. copy the menu entry to your desktop and look at the properties of the link [13:44] ok [13:44] needzhelppz: sudo ifconfig eth1 up && sudo dhclient eth1 [13:45] tsimpson: ok so i ultimately want to use them in python.. so if it is correct raw binary data i should probably ask in a python channel rather than in a ubuntu channel.. don't i?

[13:49] emmkai: hostname #Issuing the command hostname with no arguments will print hostname on screen. [13:49] i managed it before by restarting network-manager or something but now its not workig [13:49] alright, but it's longer than my computer name isn't it ? [13:49] VictorCL , the java vm states an out of memory exception. have you upgraded from a previous release or done a fresh install [13:49] needzhelppz: try: sudo service udev reload [13:50] I just upgrade ubuntu from 10.04 to 10.10 [13:50] needzhelppz: and "sudo udevadm trigger " [13:50] ok done [13:51] VictorCL, ok I would suggest you backup your work and try reinstalling netbeans by doing "sudo apt-get purge netbeans && sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get install netbeans" be careful, this will most likely remove your netbeans settings. do a backup [13:51] emmkai: In Ubuntu, when you install a service, (such as openssh-server), the package is not only installed, but the service is started as well. === ania12lat is now known as DaZ [13:52] so how do i connect [13:52] ssh username@hostname right ?

[13:52] ' [13:52] emmkai: correct [13:52] emmkai: ssh username@192.168.1.5 (Where 192.168.1.5 is the IP address of the target PC) [13:53] and if my ip starts with 130. ... [13:53] emmkai: use the IP or hostname of the machine running ssh-server you want to connect to [13:53] yes, ok im on whatismyip.com ? [13:53] emmkai are you talking about connecting from outside of your LAN= [13:54] can i use that ip ? [13:54] emmkai: no. local IP. type "ifconfig" [13:54] fmauro: yes [13:54] emmkai: if you are behind a router, you have to setup portforwarding (WAN 22 -> LAN your-host) [13:54] emmkai, if you want that you will have to do 2 things: know your WAN ip (whatismyip.com) 2. what llutz said [13:55] is there anyway to change my mac address and be able to use the internet without rebooting? [13:55] ok, what if im on LAN ? [13:55] emmkai: That is an outside IP address. We normally do not allow ssh connections from an untrusted network, (the internet). [13:55] emmkai: Yes, that is better, (to connect PC to PC within your LAN). [13:55] needzhelppz, macchanger can assign mac addresses [13:55] so, can i make a VPN connection to my computer maybe ? [13:56] famuro i'm using macchanger and randomizing my mac but then i cant connect to the internet [13:56] emmkai much safer that way yes [13:56] emmkai: Yes. T [13:56] fmauro i'm running ubuntu from virtualbox btw [13:56] how do i connect to my server using VPN ? [13:56] needzhelppz, what does ifconfig say [13:57] emmkai: does your router/server run a vpn-server? [13:57] needzhelppz, how is your network interface setup on VirtualBox? [13:57] !vpn | emmkai [13:57] emmkai: For more information on vpn please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VPN [13:57] llutz: i dont know yet [13:57] faint545 i havent touched any of the network settings within virtualbox [13:57] emmkai: then go and check, you need one for a vpn-connection. [13:57] emmkai: If your router is not VPN enabled, you will need to get one that is. [13:58] needzhelppz, have you tried addressing the device with ifconfig directly "ifconfig eth0 up && dhclient eth0" [13:58] fmauro i did that then what am i supposed to do [13:58] FU:) [13:58] needzhelppz, post the output of ifconfig here if possible [13:59] ok hold on [13:59] FU! [13:59] :D [13:59] emmkai: You CAN use ssh from outside, but it would be wise to take some precautions to secure it in such a way that it is not open to all, and not so much of a security risk.

[14:09] VictorCL, start netbeans and see if the memory decreases rapidly [14:09] needzhelppz, ping 8.8.8.8 [14:09] its unreachable fmauro [14:10] nop [14:10] it goes up 5% more [14:11] fmauro it says unreachable wen i ping 8.8.8.8 [14:12] VictorCL, you now have several options 1. reinstalling ubuntu from scratch (will most likely solve your problem but it's a bit harsh), 2. you can try compiling netbeans from source (complicated) 3. The problem most likely lies in your java vm , try another one, like the sun jvm [14:12] needzhelppz, okay. the computer you're running Vbox on is the machine you are using right now to chat? [14:12] yep [14:13] needzhelppz, alright, does this machine have several LAN ports? [14:13] it has one ethernet wire in it [14:13] no space for anymore [14:13] ok I will try another java [14:14] needzhelppz, okay you need to check your adapter settings in VBox [14:14] what do i do in VBox? [14:14] needzhelppz, set it to bridged if you have to (at least for now) and be sure to select the active LANcontroller as the bridging device [14:15] needzhelppz, are you using VBox in linux? [14:15] btw the internet is fine before i change my mac using macchanger its only afterwards that it doesnt connect anymore [14:15] needzhelppz,, ahh [14:15] why did you change your mac ? [14:15] i'm using VBox in win7 [14:15] needzhelppz, k then forget what I just said [14:16] so what do i do now? [14:16] needzhelppz: why did you change your mac address ? [14:16] needzhelppz, VBox probably has a problem with the adapter Mac not matching it's config in Vbox itself [14:17] ugh but i managed to get the internet working last time using sudo /etc/init.d/network-manager restart and sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart [14:17] needzhelppz: why did you change your mac address ? [14:17] i'm trying to spoof my mac ikonia [14:17] needzhelppz: why ? [14:17] is it possible to disable the automount for digicams on ubuntu 11.04?

[15:25] coz_ : yea .. am doing that .. aactually I ve downloaded ubuntu yesterday .. thought if it can be used .. [15:25] !info gentoo [15:25] I installed 11.04 two weeks ago on one laptop and it didn't have unity installed, but then I re-downloaded the image again this week and installed on a different laptop but this time unity was installed. Now I can't find anything suggesting that there is an 11.04 image without unity... Is there one? [15:25] gentoo (source: gentoo): a fully GUI-configurable, two-pane X file manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.15.5-0ubuntu2 (natty), package size 715 kB, installed size 2412 kB [15:25] An_Ony_Moose: it is? let me try it. brb [15:25] i was using a mac b4 [15:25] cjhard: ask the guys in #gentoo for gentoo help [15:25] :) [15:25] ikonia: play games [15:25] it was so much easier === sburjan_ is now known as sburjan` [15:25] fmauro: ah crud. The VM way won't work because virtualbox doesn't emulate amd64 CPUs [15:25] who wants to go back to compiling everything :/ [15:25] cjhard: do you have an actual ubuntu related tech support question? [15:25] i went 2 #gen2 but they wernt very helpful [15:25] well [15:26] An_Ony_Moose: it doesn't? mine does. [15:26] ubuntu and gen2 r both linux [15:26] nonigs: ok - so there are only a few games written for Linux, the rest is done through Wine which is a windows emmulator (for want of a better word) results with it are hit an miss [15:26] cjhard: my logs show you as never being in #gentoo [15:26] calling #gentoo #gen2 is confuseing... i sugest you stop it. [15:26] cjhard: so I suggest you go to #gentoo and ask for help [15:26] An_Ony_Moose: vbox does, and I#m quite sure vmware too, but host must also be 64 [15:26] so its a linux related tech support system question [15:26] cjhard: this is ubuntu - not gentoo, please ask in #gentoo [15:26] ikonia: can I mw2 [15:26] play mw 2 [15:26] o, i went to #gen2 in datnode [15:26] lol sry xD [15:26] cjhard, you can also go to ##Linux [15:26] cjhard: the channel is #gentoo on Freenode [15:26] is #gen2 here betta? [15:27] nonigs: mw 2 ? [15:27] ikonia: modern warfare 2 [15:27] !appdb > nonigs [15:27] nonigs, please see my private message [15:27] cjhard: If you find gentoo hard, use something easier [15:27] nonigs: I suggest you check out the PM ubottu just sent you, however I personally believe if you want to play windows games, use windows [15:27] cjhard: #ubuntu doesn't control all the channels on this irc network. I suggest you either talk to the channel owners or ask in #freenode if you are confused. [15:27] what is the method whereby the mouse pointer, when reaching one edge of the screen will then reappear on the opposite edge? this avoids having to track the mouse by hand clear across the screen. 10.10 amd/64 [15:27] fmauro: I don't see an option for 64-bit anywhere [15:27] mastahyeti: That laptop was runnig in 'fallback mode'. Probably you did not check for 'additional drivers' on the machine without unity. If the GPU is not supporting the composite feature, it falls back to 'ubuntu classic' [15:27] so i should install windows? [15:27] i just installed ubuntu [15:28] fmauro: yeah the host is 64 [15:28] nonigs: in my view, if you want to play windows games, yes [15:28] An_Ony_Moose: vbox version? [15:28] pici, is ubun2 easier then gen2? [15:28] I find many PopCap Games work well in wine. :) Peggle Rules.. [15:28] cryptodira, do you mean mouse wrapping? [15:28] cjhard: it's called "ubuntu" and "gentoo" please stop changing the names [15:28] cjhard: the discussion isn't on-topic for this channel. Try #ubuntu-offtopic [15:29] im not changing da names lol [15:29] its just shorta [15:29] its sort of stupid actually... [15:29] cjhard: Yes it is easier [15:29] cjhard: please don't type in shortened English [15:29] its easier [15:29] u should do da same [15:29] !u | cjhard [15:29] cjhard: U is the 21st letter of the modern latin alphabet. Neither 'U' nor 'Ur' are words in the English language. Neither are 'R', 'Y', 'l8', 'Ne1' nor 'Bcuz'. Mangled English is hard for non-native English speakers. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/abbreviations/ for more information. [15:29] minimec: It is actually running third party graphics drivers. What I really want to know though is if there is any way I can force my other laptop to not use unity without too much hacking. Is it easy to force the fallback mode? [15:29] saves so much tym [15:29] cjhard: can't understand you - sorry [15:29] cjhard: Try to stay on-topic here. This channel is for support only. [15:29] cjhard: This is offtopic. Ubuntu is easier than gentoo [15:29] lol "ur" is totally a word [15:30] mastahyeti: just install an alternative window manager or desktop.

Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [15:30] plz dont b so rude [15:31] coz_, i suppose it could be called that. how can i implement it? [15:31] An_Ony_Moose: I can now boot the kernel, but mounting of root fails with following error [15:31] mastahyeti: If you have 'autologin' enabled, simply logout your gnome session. On the login screen, after having chosen your user look at the bottom and change the session to 'ubuntu classic'. That is all you need. [15:31] if a mdadm drive gets removed and marked as faulty is there any way to see a log or otherwise the reasons why it became faulty?

[16:40] alright, relax, have you backed up your data on your win7 install or do you need to recover it? [16:40] The Ubuntu live disk has decided that it would be a great idea to ignore my BIOS's SCSI emulation mode and just use the pure SATA driver for accessing the harddisks. This is bad, because the BIOS uses SCSI emulation to implement RAIDing. Thus, if Ubuntu attempts to write to the RAIDed volume, it will severely corrupt it.

[17:28] edbian: visa command line? [17:28] via [17:29] CoJaBo: It's in System -> Admin or you can search for it in unity. The CLI is totally unneeded here. In fact I recommend the gui because it is much clearer [17:29] arthurscience: you can't. You have to put the extended partition in the 4th primary partition [17:29] Hey all could someone tell me if there is a guide to set up email using evolution or if someone could quickly tell me? [17:29] arthurscience: in that you then create the logical partitions [17:29] edbian: the livecd won't boot to gui [17:29] arthurscience: The extended partition would be the 5th primary [17:30] CoJaBo: what? Then you have a problem my friend! [17:30] CoJaBo: How did you install Ubuntu? [17:30] lindenle: xubuntu offered it via the additional drivers thing (can't remember the right name), it just worked fine after a restart [17:30] edbian: only the gui installer (kubuntu) works [17:30] CoJaBo: Did you install kubuntu? [17:30] yes [17:30] An_Ony_Moose: ok how can I do that because GParted doesn't seem to be giving me that option [17:30] ThinkT510: xubuntu is the xfce version?

Boot the liveCD while I look up the partition for KDE :) gparted is gnome only [17:31] lindenle: yes, it uses the same additional driver thingy so it should work the same for unity/gnome [17:32] An_Ony_Moose: why not?

[18:10] Firefishe, You'll be able to mount the UDF using acetoniso, then create an .iso from the mounted files. Thats the easiest way to do it. [18:10] KM0201 and ubottu : i said i have gone through that all already, but no dice. the dvd just keeps making sounds but nothing comes up. nothing is mounted. i open vlc to open disc and it says nothing is there. [18:10] j3roth: So basically, I use acetoniso to mount the .iso image, delete the files, then write out a new.iso? [18:10] irrumator_: if the drive is not mounting, then you have other issue.s.. the drive should mount, regardless if you have libdvdcss installed or not [18:11] thanks Pici [18:11] hi. I have a 16 GB usb. I had once partitioned it into 4 using fdisk. After that it doesn't seem to mount by itself if I plug it in... [18:11] do other discs mount in that drive? [18:11] KM0201: well, i mean like there should be an icon with the dvd on the desktop at least [18:11] irrumator_: libdvdcss, is just a tool that linux usses to read the actual DVD, the DVD disk/player, will still mount if the drive and disk is in working order [18:11] it worked on my last 10.04 install [18:11] colberticus, was that question to me...? [18:11] Firefishe, no an it is an Image mounting tool. Mount the UDF using Acetoniso. Then copy the contents into a folder (on your desktop per se), then create an iso from that folder. [18:11] So nautilus becomes slower and slower at copying a large file onto ntfs or fat32, whats up with that? [18:11] irrumator_: thats my point, you have an issue other than libdvdcss [18:11] j3roth: I follow now. Thank you. :) [18:12] symaxian: when you put the disk in the drive, let it spin for a second, then open up nautilus [18:12] i know what libdvdcss does KM0201 , thanks anyways. it looks like its asking to launch blank dvd now [18:12] can somebody suggest which is the best online radio for ubuntu [18:12] and see if it shows a optical disk mounted [18:12] Firefishe:Np, just let me know if you need any other help. Especially if acetoneiso doesn't mount the UDF haha [18:12] lol thats not the issue [18:12] DasEi: Also thanks [18:12] irrumator_: i understand you know what libdvdcss is, but my point is, you seem to think the disk not mounting, has to do w/ libdvdcss, which it doesn't [18:12] either an ntfs partition or fat32 flash drive, starts out fast then goes slower and slower [18:12] th edisk will mount, with or without libdvdcss [18:13] sup! [18:13] KM0201: do you have any idea why it says i've inserted a blank dvd? [18:13] that was meant for KM0201 [18:13] KM0201: you hilited me with your typo ;D [18:13] th^^: lol, oops. [18:13] colberticus: what was meant for me. [18:14] I was asking if other discs mounted [18:14] colberticus: well, that was gonna be my next question, but he seemed to think it was a libdvdcss issue, [18:14] oh...

[18:26] jetrost: as ThinkT510 pointed out, run the command which bash [18:26] blank page, blank terminal [18:26] :| [18:26] hey everyone, i just replaced the thermal paste in my laptop (dellxpsm1530) and it used to run quite hot and the fan would run almost constantly, now its silent and almost no heat so i feel as though i did everyhting correctly (it was my first time) i did it because i had issues with video games shutting down as well s boxee and other gpu intensive things. im still havent the problem now though! can anyone suggest a solution [18:27] ThinkT510, oCean: oh, haha ok thanks i'll try that [18:27] Mors: not even in Terminal [18:27] Yup [18:27] GuyCanada: ##hardware [18:27] I'm like #_# [18:27] rcmaehl, can you elaborate? is it possible my gpu is kaput? [18:27] GuyCanada: do /join ##hardware [18:28] rhin0, if i remove firestarter will it undo everything its done i just wanna use ufw [18:28] Mors: ok, try "less" [18:28] GuyCanada: How do you replace the thermal paste? (Because I have the same hardware). [18:28] rcmaehl, thank you [18:28] I don't know what firestart is crackerjackz [18:28] hey guys, i was in here earlier today, discussing the easiest way to access the command line of a remote computer over the internet [18:28] alsuna: tried cat already [18:28] Mors: and? [18:28] Don't think less/more do anything more than that >_> [18:28] As always, nothing [18:28] not a line [18:28] you think ssh + vpn i absolutely the easiest way to do that ? [18:29] lasers: i followed a guide online, removed the heatsinks cleaned the heat sings and cpu and gpu, put a small dab of paste on and allowed the pressure of reapplying the heatsink to spread it [18:29] crackerjackz: sudo ufw enable -- enables the ufw firewall -- if you have another firewall installed just uninstall it -- both firewalls can be in operation [18:29] Mors: what is the file size? [18:29] ~200 bytes [18:29] !dash | jetrost [18:29] jetrost: /bin/sh links to the DASH shell in all releases since Ubuntu Edgy (6.10). Since DASH is not 100% compatible with the BASH shell, some scripts might break. You can make scripts execute using BASH by changing the first line of the script to « #! /bin/bash [18:29] GuyCanada: Can you post the link please? That's all. (Thank you) :) [18:29] Mors: ok.. does wc -l do anything? [18:29] lasers: the thing is, before the pc shuts down wouldnt you expect a burst from the fan if the problem were heat? im having no such thing the fam remains silent [18:30] fan* [18:30] lasers: not sure i could find the link again, how important is it? [18:31] strange.. y cnt we tell ppl how to enable root ? [18:31] GuyCanada: ##hardware would be a good place to ask questions. I'm in air conditioned room. (And I don't have issues with my laptop, I was just wondering about it). I remember using regular fan to blow on the box when I dn't have fans installed. [18:31] Lasers: that's a bad idea [18:31] !root | colberticus [18:31] colberticus: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [18:32] !sudo | colberticus [18:32] colberticus: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli).

[18:33] Is hdmi audio supposed to be broken with radeon driver in 11.10? [18:33] I wonder if there's a quote for 'rm -rf /' [18:33] guys, what do you think is the easiest way to access command line on a remote computer over the internet ? Is it SSH + VPN ? [18:33] ThinkT510: is there? [18:33] colberticus: sudo is safer then the linux 'su' (superuser) [18:33] because it's temporary [18:33] They seem to have removed jack and pulse support on wine-1.3.25 [18:34] rcmaehl: ask somebody else [18:34] !rm -rf / [18:34] rcmaehl: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [18:34] !danger | rcmaehl [18:34] rcmaehl: DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND!

There are always /usr/ [18:36] kjeldor: next time better try andoid instead of a product that doesn't want you to use it ;) [18:36] ThinkT510, thanks. the whole problem was there wasn't a space after the '#!' and before the '/bin/bash' [18:36] !iphone | kjeldor [18:36] kjeldor: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod [18:36] !iphone | kjeldor [18:37] jetrost: ah, glad you spotted it :) [18:37] I'm running lucid and chromium. Is this: https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/ubuntu-help/net-install-moonlight.html still the recommended method? Do I need to go through the FF part too, or just the chromium? [18:37] kjeldor: banshee or rhythmbx should work for music transfer; there is also gtkpod [18:37] Guys banshee allows you to import your itunes music [18:37] thanks! [18:37] craigbass1976: just for firefox i believe [18:37] thinkT510. there are many situations in which to use root instead of sudo tho. for example if you have multiple user accounts that administer a system but there are certain things u dnt want them doing as sudo u can change the permissions of sudo to prevent them. but this means a root account should be available as well cuz if u find something u need to change then root will be able to change it even if its explicitly not allowed for sudoers [18:37] who help me in configuring bind with webmin? [18:38] colberticus: i don't make the rules, do you have a support question [18:38] I've installed SRWare Iron, it used my Chromium settings. It's all good I guess - can I safely remove Chromium now without losing my settings on SRWare Iron ? [18:38] zul_ for ntlm authentication? [18:38] !webmin | zul__ [18:38] zul__: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu.

Wat did I do? [18:40] if you are trying to connect to something that uses a port you have to enable that port crackerjackz - syntax sudo ufw allow from to port <- I think - check that -- "man ufw" is the manual [18:40] !bluetooth | squarebracket [18:40] rhin0, i did [18:41] squarebracket: For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup [18:41] My problem is this (sorry I'm a newbie). I have a static ip and I bought a domain. The domain arrive to my ip and I see my apache site, but If I pass on a link inside my html page I can see my ip [18:41] if it uses a port you need to allow that port in ufw but for the ip address crackerjackz [18:41] 5900, 5800, and 5500 [18:41] genii-around, thanks [18:41] HELP: temperature is more than normal in my samsung np n150 jp0gin netbook running xubuntu11.04, it reports 64 degrees in normal state and 70 degrees while listening music on grooveshark or installing some software via software centre. can anybody help resolving this problem? [18:41] rhin0, here is the output of sudo ufw status [18:41] thauriswulfa: it gets hotter the more processing it does [18:41] http://pastebin.com/DsuAkVNV [18:42] Thairiswulfa: Fahrenheit or celsius? [18:42] I've installed SRWare Iron, it used my Chromium settings. It's all good I guess - can I safely remove Chromium now without losing my settings on SRWare Iron ? [18:42] thauriswulfa, is this cpu or gpu or hard drive temps [18:42] im not sure what ports vnc needs crackerjackz -- maybe ask someone who knows vnc setup [18:42] How can I resolve that problem? [18:42] rhin0: good answer ;-) [18:43] Can somebody tell me how to uninstall Nautilus Elementary? PPA Purge doesn't work... [18:43] rhino0: thats obvious but 64 degrees should not be in idle state [18:43] coz_: its cpu temperature [18:43] thauriswulfa, and I assume this is celsius? [18:43] thauriswulfa: the command top shows what processes are using the most cpu [18:43] thauriswulfa: mine is around 64 now too (not doing much of anything), it's pretty normal [18:44] zul_ that doesn't sound like an Apache conf issue [18:44] thauriswulfa: 70 is also not really that hot for a CPU [18:44] Can somebody please tell me how to uninstall Nautilus Elementary? PPA purge doesn't work. [18:44] thauriswulfa, I dont think those temps for cpu in celsius are really abnormal [18:44] evenin all [18:44] Kr3m1in: The ppa line will be in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/, remove it manually from there [18:44] well if its 60 celsius that's bad [18:45] nothingspecial: that won't remove ppa's packages [18:45] Kr3m1in: define doesn't work, can you give us an output¿ [18:45] xangua: huh? [18:45] JasFasolka, I am curious why you went with srware instead of chromium-browser? [18:45] tsimpson: ok thanks, but there's one more problem , why ubuntu sucks more battery as compare to windows ,running ubuntu lasts only 4hrs while in windows its 7 or 8 [18:46] is ufw the same thing as ip tables? [18:46] my machine reaches 140 degrees when its working not idle [18:46] TIL (chrome 10.04) press control and hold and then the "scrollwheel" of the mouse controls the text size on a webpage !!!! [18:46] Kr3m1in: Sorry thought because ppa purge wasn't working you wanted to remove the source [18:46] JasFasolka, especially since the last update on srware was back in 2009 if I am not mistaken [18:46] nothingspecial: I just want to go back to the old Nautilus [18:46] does that work in other browsers? It would be nice in gedit. [18:46] Kr3m1in: Use any apt front end or apt-get remove [18:46] I'm just trying different things, it's up to date too [18:46] I want a control button on my mouse too. [18:46] JasFasolka, I am mistaken sorry [18:47] crackerjackz: I believe ufw is a sort of frontend for iptrables. [18:47] Guys is there a way to install just the kernel and terminal without desktop and stuff? [18:47] kr3m1in: What do you mean by ppa-purge not working? What error is it giving you. [18:47] thauriswulfa: there could be many reasons, including using desktop effects or not using power management effectively, or maybe background processes. though I have notices non-windows systems don't do as well as windows systems in regards to battery life [18:47] !mini | Chenthu [18:47] Chenthu: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [18:47] Chenthu, yes with the minimal install cd [18:47] chenthu u want ubuntu server then [18:47] ? === ser_ is now known as serg_ [18:47] chenthu: The minimal ISO. [18:47] oh thats good.... [18:47] Chenthu, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [18:47] u dont want a server [18:48] i* [18:48] but thats good [18:48] minimal [18:48] Polah: Unable to locate package ppa:am-monkeyd [18:48] tsimpson:but wifi is off,and brightness is at its lowest and moreover battery is newly manufactured [18:48] nothingspecial: Unable to locate package ppa:am-monkeyd [18:48] I've heard it's more secure & faster, I'm just trying to push big corporations away from me for a lil bit. You didn't anwser my question though [18:48] i ve been having a lot of problem installing 11.04 amd 64 using usb [18:48] ah I dnt find much different between desktop and server except for the GUI [18:48] and some packages [18:48] Kr3m1in: yu need to enable the ppa to remove it with ppa-purge [18:49] Thabks guys [18:49] xangua: how would I do that? [18:49] Chenthu, then the minimal is not for you it is , i believe , only 32 bit [18:49] kr3m1in: Try ppa:am-monkeyd/nautilus-elementary-ppa [18:49] thauriswulfa: look at the power management settings, the CPU power is usually what causes the most power drain. "ondemand" is usually the most efficient [18:49] Polah: bash: ppa:am-monkeyd/nautilus-elementary-ppa: No such file or directory [18:50] thauriswulfa u never said if it was celsius or Fahrenheit [18:50] oh no 64 bit for minimal? [18:50] Polah: But I know i have elementary [18:50] colberticus: its in celcius [18:50] Polah: ...evident by the speed decrease [18:50] Chenthu, I dont think so unless it detects the arch during install [18:50] oh that's pretty warm in my opinion at idle [18:50] kr3m1in: I mean as the argument for ppa-purge. Do ppa-purge ppa:am-monkeyd/nautilus-elementary-ppa [18:50] hmmm...k [18:51] Kr3m1in: how about you go to the PPA page and check the actuall PPA's name [18:51] kr3m1in: Just doing ppa-purge ppa:am-monkeyd won't work since you're not specifying the actual ppa name, just the owner [18:51] coz_: It does. If you tried to install 64bit on 32bit, the worst scenario? "Halt. Wrong arch. Go install the correct one, you klutz." [18:51] colberticus: so do you know any solution [18:51] eh.. just go 32-bit chenthu [18:51] thats bad [18:51] Lasers, so you are sure it detects the architecture during install? [18:52] Polah: I just tried ppa-purge ppa:am-monkeyd/nautilus-elementary-ppa and it didn't work [18:52] Polah: i have ppa purge installed [18:52] coz_: Yes. You can have 32bit on 64bit system. Just not the other way around. [18:52] thauriswulfa a lot of things could cause that.. lol === abcd_ is now known as Guest4990 [18:52] Colberticus and polah : may be i could just remove all othe after install except for terminal [18:52] Kr3m1in: Did you do it with sudo? [18:52] Lasers, I understand that,, but I wasnt sure if the minimal install cd detects the architecture or is strictly 32 bit [18:53] nothingspecial: ah i made an oopsie [18:53] Kr3m1in: You have to update also [18:53] chenthu: that's a lot of work [18:53] why is package "kdirstat" deleted in Natty? :( [18:53] nothingspecial: update... nautilus? [18:53] y not just use the server version? [18:53] colberticus: not with a single command? [18:53] th1, on kde ..yes? [18:53] no [18:54] I have used kdirstat under gnome for years and years [18:54] nothingspecial: what do i update? [18:54] since it's the best way to find what is ttaking up space [18:54] Kr3m1in: No your sources list [18:54] its ubuntu minus a desktop.. just dnt install any of the server packages [18:54] th1, I see... did you check to see if kdirstat is still being developed or maintained? [18:54] kr3m1in: What error did it give you this time? [18:54] Polah: nothing it purged but elementary is still alive [18:54] Polah: :/ [18:54] chenthu no it'd take many commands, and I'm not sure if it'll break anything [18:55] coz_, I don't think it has changed in many years [18:55] th1, from what I see the last date was 2006 [18:55] Kr3m1in: nautilus -q ; to restart nautilus [18:55] but it still works just fiiiiine [18:55] hi - I'm using vhosts but set up another copy of the server on a different IP - while I test it, can I get my browser to send along a "domain" to the IP address? is there some standard way like http://35.23.23.21::www.google.com to have the browser report to 35.23.23.21 that it is trying to visit www.google.com ? (i.e. in this example if vhosts is set up for www.google.com then the server responds. this is just an example) [18:55] kr3m1in: Try restarting perhaps. Ubuntu doesn't use new versions of things until they running instance is shut down and a new instance is started up using the new files [18:55] colberticus: hmmm...k.... [18:55] Kr3m1in: try nautilus -q [18:55] th1: It was a legacy KDE3 package, they were all removed from Ubuntu.

If I'm not back here, then its fine [18:56] chenthu: wats wrong with using server version? [18:56] ..... [18:56] May be i would just have to buid my own distro....just download kernel then terminal and so on [18:57] terminal comes with kernel? [18:57] Chenthu: sounds like easy ;) [18:57] th1, I believe t he original application was named sequoiaview but for windows,, I believe it runs in wine [18:57] Ummm. no.. [18:57] Chenthu: Do you just want a cli install? A 'terminal' is something that you use in a GUI. [18:57] lol it'd take a long time to do that [18:57] colberticus: server.....never had done...whats the diff...only desktop? [18:58] pici yes tats Wat he wants [18:58] tripelb: Still here. You can install the software imwheel, which will allow you to configure the mousewheel like that. You would need modify the .imwheelrc in you /home/yourname folder. [18:58] coz, the original was kdirstat, then came Windirstat which in turn inspired sequioiaview [18:58] Chenthu: To build your own, start off with the minimal ISO. Does what it says on the tin, comes with a minimum of packages, no GUI and suchlike. The server distribution comes with server packages like openssh-server and apache2 ready to go [18:58] xangua: lol..yeah [18:58] th1, I see [18:58] chenthu pretty much that's it [18:58] Chenthu: It sounds like you want to use the Ubuntu Minimal CD, or the Ubuntu Server Cd. [18:58] coz_, but like I said, it was still on the Launchpad page and works [18:59] polah he wats 64 bit they dnt have minimal for 64-bit [18:59] th1: Just because you can doesn't mean you should. Don't expect that package to work in the future. [18:59] pici: but i dont want anything else than a terminal to install the gui [18:59] hello guys/ can anybody help me to use dialup modem under ubuntu ? === bizy is now known as bisconer [18:59] Pici, it is a shame to remove a good and useful app. that baobab got nothing on it especially on a small netbook screen [18:59] Polah:but minimal is only 32 bit [18:59] go8765: Install gnomeppp [18:59] th1, what about fsview for konqueror [18:59] a terminal is an app that let's u interact with the command line [18:59] th1: I'm sure there are alternatives to both in the repos, have you looked? [18:59] Chenthu: is it? [18:59] coz_, then I have to install all of the KDE, I haven't tried that but I might do it on the main PC some day [18:59] u want a cli no desktop [19:00] Chenthu: I doubt that. Let me get you a link. [19:00] go8765: apt-get install gnome-ppp [19:00] iceroot: yeah thats what people here told me [19:00] Pici, I don't know what to search for "dirstat" got nothing [19:00] th1, that was not a real recommendation,, i have hard people having issues with it [19:00] pici:ok [19:00] heard rather [19:00] th1: Thats not a word. Search for disk usage, or similar. [19:00] Chenthu: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso [19:00] cli is command line interface, and GUI is graphical user interface (ie desktops and wats u have its) [19:00] Chenthu: There are MANY links on this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [19:01] th1: Wait until tommorw, when KDE 4.7 goes out for Ubuntu 11.04 i 10.10. [19:01] Pici, it comes with that baobab, but honestly try installing kdirstat and baobab and run them both on a netbook screen [19:01] th1 *11.10 of course [19:01] aeeee [19:01] th1: I don't have a netbook, but I agree that boabab can be a bit lacking. [19:01] Pici: wow...thanks... [19:01] how can i access multiple windows from an application trough the unity launcher? [19:01] Galvatron: Please don't suggest development releases to users, 11.10 is far from stable at this time. [19:01] pici you can emulate the effect by resizing it to 1024x600 ;) [19:02] redfox: right click [19:02] even on a desktop screen kdirstat is still superior [19:02] th1, is filelight still available?

I have use kdirstat and liked it but have not really found a equal replacemnt [19:04] Polah: with more then 1gb ram, its a good idea to use amd64 [19:04] Polah: I have 2.5 gB ram..but the problem is i have a 5 yr old laptop which i would use for linux [19:04] hi! how to use gparted in a live cd (not gparted live cd) as root? thanks! [19:04] iceroot: Really? Why would that be. [19:04] coz_, yeah that's why I think it was a shame to delete it when it was useful and didn't have a better replacement [19:04] ah didnt see the 64 bit ,, I should learn to scroll down a on a page :) [19:04] I wish ubuntu wouldn't do that [19:04] Polah:yeah Pici gave me the link [19:04] Polah: http://blog.linuxolution.org/archives/117 [19:04] Chenthu: Why would it being five years old matter? [19:04] th1, well talk to the developers about it,, [19:04] mediapinta: go to terminal and run sudo gparted [19:04] Polah: the virtual-space needs to be 4x of the used ram [19:05] coz_, anyway mission accomplished I now have 4GB free [19:05] Pici: I mean KDE 4.7, NOT Ubu 11.10 (I've just noted the fact that this new KDE goes for both Ubuntus 11.xx). [19:05] Polah: Cause when i was using windows and my window 7 run faster abnd better in a 64 bit than 32 [19:05] th1, ah ok :) [19:05] nothingspecial: this only brings up the menu [19:05] coz_, I always use kdirstat when I run out of space [19:05] Polah: The biggest single reason to go 64-bit is exactly because of physical address space. Your virtual address space needs to bea multiple of the physical one: when you hit 1GB of RAM, 32-bit virtual memory is no longer acceptable. You literally do need more virtual memory than physical. [19:05] j3roth, i have 01:00.0 Communication controller: Agere Systems LT WinModem (rev 02) [19:05] nonsenseinc: i want to access all windows like its possible on windows7 when i hover the icon [19:06] th1, I thought it was useful myself [19:06] iceroot: Interesting, I'm reading through just now. [19:06] Galvatron: Still, thats not going to help the fact that the package thats requested here was removed because it was back from the KDE3 days. [19:06] j3roth, and i think that it need some driver [19:06] j3roth: what about user and password? [19:06] Pici: OK [19:06] mediapinta:On the live CD it doesnt require one. [19:06] go8765:Did gnome-ppp complain about no device? [19:06] Polah: very interesting article [19:06] redfox: compiz does that, i think its called window preview [19:07] ThinkT510: thanks, will look into it [19:07] redfox, compiz also has scale plugin and a number of visual options for that [19:07] Polah:system runs faster and better in a 64 than a 32 [19:07] j3roth, now i use xp? becouse i use those modem. i try to reboot and see what gnome-ppp said. then i came back :) [19:08] Polah: so if you have more then 1gb ram, you should use amd64 (or better, if the cpu supports amd64 you should always use it) [19:08] Chenthu: I don't know about faster or better. More addressable memory and perhaps different hardware/software compatibility. [19:09] iceroot: 32-bit address space has a 4GB limit [19:09] go8765:Ah well, make sure Ubuntu sees your modem run a dmesg. Then try running gnome-ppp. [19:09] Polah: Hmmmm.....no idea bro...thats what i have experienced on windows 7 [19:09] iceroot: I guess I'll have to upgrade to 64-bit with 11.10. Although last time I had some trouble with it when I tried, I also noticed my memory addresses are 48-bit, not 64 which I found a bit strange. [19:09] Polah: Whats a PowerPC ISO? thats in the minimal CD page? [19:09] Galvatron: It's actually 3.2-4GB actually, not quite 4GB. [19:09] iceroot: And you also have PAE, for up to 64GB of RAM [19:09] minimec, copied that to my notes. [19:09] you can use more than 4GB RAM with 32bit, when you use a PAE kernel [19:09] clear [19:09] Polah: 48bit = pae [19:10] !ppc | Chenthu [19:10] Chenthu: PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ [19:10] Galvatron: http://blog.linuxolution.org/archives/117 [19:10] Hello, sorry if this is a newby question, but when one removes a package, is there any way to automatically remove init scripts for that package as well? I'm having a hard time finding a yes or no on google. [19:10] why is copying keys from gnupg to NSS so difficult. (want to sign PDFs in librewriter) isn't there an app? [19:10] iceroot: 36-bit, not 48-bit. [19:10] Polah:oh ok...thank you [19:10] iceroot: I assume that's based on the system then. My processor is x86-64, but cat /proc/cpuinfo reports 48. [19:10] j3roth, i have this now from my ubuntu http://paste.ubuntu.com/652575/ [19:10] Resisty: they should be removed along with the package [19:11] I dont think that command exists in gedit. One has to go to a cascade of menu choices. Inconvenient for me with poor eyes and a love of changing positions so I get further from the screen and I cant accomodate [19:11] j3roth: thanks!! so easy! :p [19:11] I dont think that command exists in gedit. One has to go to a cascade of menu choices. Inconvenient for me with poor eyes and a love of changing positions so I get further from the screen and I cant accomodate minimec [19:11] tsimpson: do you know any reasons why they wouldn't be? Mine aren't. [19:11] iceroot, Galvatron: That actually does make more sense. 48-bit for PAE would be more than 64GB, which is the limit of PAE I believe. [19:11] mediapinta:np, good luck! [19:11] go8765: well I see the modem Should work. [19:11] Resisty: only if they weren't installed along with the package, so created manually or with some other tool after the package was installed [19:11] Hejsa kan en hjælpe mig med at fortælle hvorfor jeg ikke kan se min server?

You can define a Alt-Mousewheel for all applications that use Ctrl+/- See here ->-> http://paste.ubuntu.com/652608/ [19:13] need help with "flush0:21" taking up 95% cpu [19:13] any takers? [19:13] wow lag [19:13] tsimpson: I would, but the only problem is I'm doing package installation en masse with puppet and I made a change to disallow certain recommended packages. Now those obsolete packages can be `apt-get purge`'d but their init script stays around [19:13] Colberticus: ok...thanks for the info [19:13] hello. how can i find the name of the file in /dev/ that corresponds to my usb stick? [19:13] bahamas: plug it in, then dmesg | tail [19:14] i am running natty on a lenovo laptop that runs on an AMD E350 Fusion CPU. eventhough i managed to fix graphics, wireless and a bunch of other stuff there is one issue I cant resolve. My laptop freezes on log in if I am on battery. [19:14] bahamas: it should start with sd [19:14] bahamas: sudo fdisk -l [19:14] go8765: try wvdial program [19:14] here's a tricky one: i'm running Ubuntu as a virtual machine from within Mac OS X. i want to Remote Desktop into Ubuntu from a separate Windows machine. does this seem possible? [19:14] jetrost: sure [19:14] I'm having trouble connecting via ssh from my Ubuntu box. When I try to connect to my mac, I get the error "PTY allocation request failed on channel 0". I can connect from the mac to the ubuntu box OK. I can connect to other SSH server s from the Ubuntu box, it's just this one host. I've not had much finding solutions with Google, does anyone have any suggestions? [19:14] have a nice night,,,,, [19:14] Can i use a minimal cd to boot from USB? [19:14] Resisty: well they are just files in the package, so removing the package should remove the init scripts, purge is only supposed to effect the configuration scripts [19:14] jetrost: the system has to e part of the network, then everything is fine [19:14] j3roth, ppoeconf you mean ? [19:14] jetrost: It seems to ba an OSX issue [19:14] Chenthu: yes [19:14] Resisty, is this behaviour seen for more than one package -- it doesn't seem to be right. Sounds like a bug! [19:15] Chenthu, I have heard it being done with unetbootin [19:15] j3roth, i try it but it can find modem [19:15] jeroth:pppconf should work. You dont want to use pppoe [19:15] Iceroot: ok...and the procedure is same as for the full version? [19:15] jetrost of course... as far as the pc is concerned its a whole separate physical machine [19:15] go8765:Im not sure. [19:15] tsimpson: ok but `apt-get remove` has the same behavior but leaves configs as well [19:15] dw-: I don't see any apps to do that, but I'm not really sure if I'm looking for the right thing. This was tghe first google result, it looks like it might work: http://kerneltrap.org/node/64803 [19:15] Chenthu, I have had not luck putting minimal on usb but I know its' been done [19:15] tsimpson: hm good call, I will check their bug reports [19:15] jetrost: you will probably need to put the VM guest's nic in bridged mode to get it working correctly. [19:15] Chenthu: if i am correct, yes [19:15] Coz:oh my...what was the probs u faced? [19:15] An_Ony_Moose: iceroot thanks [19:15] iceroot:thanks [19:16] hihi, I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 and VLC won't start. Anyway to fix it? [19:16] Chenthu: but there was something like minimal cd is searching for cdrom when using an usb-stick but that should be fixed and only affect very old ubuntu versions [19:16] Chenthu, for me on my system it just refused to boot into the usb device ,, however when I put it on a external hd it worked so go figure [19:16] yea jetrost needs to be bridged so its on the same network [19:16] minimec, a bit advanced for me but I copied it all into my notes. . . since I dont know how long pastebin persists. [19:16] dsister: what are the errors when starting vlc from a terminal?

[19:16] Snicers-Work2: When would you expect that to run? === skrewler_ is now known as skrewler [19:17] Thanks for the info guys [19:17] tripelb: Just save the content of that pastebin as .imwheelrc in your /home/yourname [19:17] tripelb: No problem. [19:17] pica: yea results are few. i saw that one. looks like a two-step gnupg->openssl then openssl->NSS but then it leads to hardcore programmers coding their own functions in C and I dont understand taht or fundamentals.. lol thankst ho [19:17] Snicers-Work2: is it set with sudo crontab? or placed in /etc/cron.d/? [19:17] j3roth, i foun something but i dont understand goot what i need to do... ( [19:17] coz_: thanks for your suggestion but i only want a windows preview of the selected application and then choose one window of it. is it possible with scale? [19:17] go8765:link? [19:18] dw-: Perhaps this helps: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/390677/convert-openssl-public-key-into-nss-one ? [19:18] sudo crontab [19:18] I want it to run every other day eventually. [19:18] Boa tarde , gostaria de saber se sabem de uma interface para usar junto ao ubuntu mais leve porem funcional ara desktop [19:18] An_Ony_Moose: for some reason, i can't write to it, even with sudo [19:18] redfox, mm well scale will show you ALL windows that are opened and then you choose which one to focus on [19:18] pici: i will spend more time on those perhaps im missing whats right there [19:19] snicers-Work2: I assume sqlBackup.cron is a script you want to run. Try setting that to sqlBackup.sh and running it as a script that way? [19:19] iceroot, they are both connected to the same network. jevidl: just did that. how would i find the address to give to Remote Desktop Connection to connect? [19:19] pici: didnt see that one looks useful [19:19] redfox, so I guess yes would be the tentative answer,, which application are you speaking of in particular [19:19] is it possible to boot a 32bit ubuntu on a 64 bit machine? [19:19] Bite, yes [19:19] j3roth, 2 minutes please :) [19:19] coz_: firefox for example. but any application that can have multiple windows [19:19] Bite: You mean installing or running LiveCD? [19:19] ok, so i want to make a bootable usb stick. i found the device corresponding to my stick, but trying to write on the stick gives me permission denied, even if i use sudo. do i need to do anything else? [19:19] go8765:Im here until 19:00 EST lol === jetrost_ is now known as jetrost [19:20] Galvatron, simply running a livecd to do a chmod on a file that's being stubborn in windows. [19:20] redfox, then yes,, scale would reveal all the windows and ,, from my experience even the dialogs that are opened,,, best way to find out is enable Scale plugin and give it a try :) [19:20] jetrost_: in a terminal window just type in "ifconfig eth0" [19:20] jetrost: ifconfig will tell you the ip from the ubuntu-machine [19:20] Bite: Yes, unless you have Itanium, which is not 32-bit compatible.:P [19:21] jetrost: you may need to restart networking if you haven't rebooted since putting the nic in bridge mode. [19:21] Galvatron, I'm not aware what that is, a quick google will determine whether or not it's applicable. [19:21] Galvatron, No, It's fine. Thanks. [19:21] coz_: i just did and i know this, its nice. but it would be also nice to have an option to just choose between the windows of an apllication which icon i hover from the unity launcher. windows preview is already a nice plugin but it doesnt let me focus the window. too bad. but thanks for your suggestions anyway :) [19:22] jevidl, when i switched to bridged mode, it disconnected and reconnected again, so... [19:22] anyone? [19:22] redfox, did you try the windows preview plugin as welL>? [19:22] j3roth, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=918368 [19:22] iceroot: Running it from the terminal made it work O.o [19:22] coz_: yep, just now. but as i said, i cannot click on the previews. [19:22] Bite: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Itanium In short: A 64-bit-only CPU. [19:22] Thanks! [19:22] bahamas: what was the command you used to write to the stick? [19:23] j3roth, may be this [19:23] j3roth, may be this http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/#foreign [19:23] redfox, perhaps one of the window switechers under Window management category may help [19:23] could anybody tell me How to install a git server in a my pc?

[19:23] j3roth, and this ^) http://linmodems.org/ [19:23] jetrost: ok, probably good [19:24] bahamas: öh [19:24] redfox, however,, if you have a good explanation of what is needed and is not yet available in compiz,, i suggest going to #compiz-dev and speaking with smspillaz,,, not yet though,,, he lives in austrailia so adjust from your timezone [19:24] go8765:bam, install the package: martian-modem [19:24] jevidl, do i need to enable Remote Connections in Ubuntu?

Any assistance would be appreciated. [19:28] iceroot: how can i tell? i just downloaded it [19:28] bearly230: you need to find a driver that's compatible to Linux [19:29] danileigh79: Brother has a linux driver both lpr and cups, however they are 32bit drivers. [19:29] bearly230: have you tried using them? [19:29] danileigh79: You simply shrink one and give that space to the other. You won't damage anything unless you accidentally delete a partition, or somehow accidentally shut down/reboot the machine. [19:29] >j3roth: I'd already tried that...no printer there. It's just disappeared. [19:29] They won't install [19:30] Galvatron: My gparted wont allow me to mod partitions unless they're unmounted [19:30] bearly230, take a look here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1678093 [19:30] coz_: thanks, I was about to paste that link [19:30] danileigh79: Use a LiveCD/LiveUSB version, not the one in the system.

[20:01] on every bootup i have to reinstall my nvidia drivers to get the system to go into GUI. i keep getting could not acquire org.gnome.displaymanager. ANd when i do a locate on it, it returns empty like its not installed... anyone knwo what the deal is? [20:01] j3roth: thanks [20:01] bahamas:np :) [20:01] Edisto: You probably have more than one driver installed. [20:01] jetrost: sorry, was afk for a bit. di dyou get your stuff working? [20:02] i see... how would i find that out and uninstall the oen i don't need [20:02] Edisto: Can you run sudo lspci -k and tell me what drivers / modules are listed for you card? [20:02] Edisto: Please use my name when talking to me. [20:03] jevidl: nope, the windows machine reported that it couldn't connect. i gave up. *shrug* [20:03] /j #openrce [20:03] sorry [20:03] i was trying to check something out === peer is now known as Guest2301 [20:05] Ahhh, installing Xubuntu AND my new 12 000 BTU AC in the same day :D [20:05] Sometimes audio just stops working... It says that /dev/dsp does not exist... I have these errors in the logs: http://p.adora.dk/P2112.html How do I fix this? [20:06] Any idea of how to direct the minimal iso usb installer to check for files in the folder rather than download? [20:06] \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\]]\\ [20:06] Chenthu, isn't there a sources.list that it uses? [20:06] bastidrazor: Get your cat off the keyboard [20:06] Chenthu, try and mount the iso and look for a sources.list. [20:07] tdn: No...its asking me to choose the mirrors... [20:07] edbian: i see 2:00.0, 3.00.0, 3:02.0 PCI bridge: nvidia corporation NF200 PCIe 2.0 switch for GTX 295(rev a3) [20:07] Chenthu, oh. And you have the files locally? [20:07] tdn: i am using the minimal install iso not the other one [20:07] tdn: yeah i have downloaded [20:07] Chenthu, minimal install iso? Do you have a link? [20:07] Chenthu, do you mean alternate? [20:08] j3roth, i have updates yet. sorry :( slow dialup :( [20:08] nope not alteranate...minimal [20:08] go8765:No worries. [20:08] could the source of erorrs on a dev machine be that I configured it with only 256 MB of RAM? this is unginx and pylons with postgresql.. and only 1 user on at a time... [20:08] Edisto: So that's the card. But if you run sudo lspci -k it should have listed modules and drivers for each item. What did it list for the card? [20:09] guys, i have a computer connected to the internet via 3G dongle, can i make a VPN network access to it ? [20:09] Gromium Radio FM geen geluid wat is de plug-in [20:09] i am trying ubuntu on my laptop using a USB stick installation..but when i try to view the HD on my laptop it sais "Unable to mount 308GB Filesystem" any clues what i can do to remedy this? [20:10] Is there a way to create custom session types (specifically, make one so that ratpoison can be used as the window manager?) [20:10] @player1up Best thing to do would be to look at dmesg and see what it says. [20:10] !nl | Aegir [20:10] Aegir: Nederlandstalige ondersteuning voor Ubuntu (en vers gezette koffie) is te vinden in #ubuntu-nl [20:10] quickslvr: how do i use dmesg? [20:11] I have a question... I'm a bit familiar with resize2fs... how would I go about making a generic 1 line command that would automatically resize a partition to fill all the available disk space? [20:11] edbian: ok for pci bridge. drivers in use: pcieport kernel modules: shpchp... vga and 3d controller drivers in use: nvidia, driver modules: nvidia-current,nvidia,nouveau,nvidiafb [20:11] Could I do it with resize2fs? [20:11] @player1up Just open up a terminal and type dmesg. You'll probably see at the bottom of what it outputs something related to why the mount failed [20:13] Edisto: Ignore pci bridge :) The driver in use is the actual driver being used right now. modules are other drivers that are installed but aren't being used right now. [20:13] Edisto: Are you currently using the driver you wanna use? I can tell you how to uninstall the drivers. I just don't know which you want and which you want to get rid of. [20:13] off* [20:13] yeah currently i'm on the driver that is the newest that i want to use [20:14] How can I set ratpoison as my default window manager? [20:14] The reason I want to do this, is I want to image computers with various hard drive sizes from CloneZilla. CloneZilla can only image small to large devices. [20:15] quizno50: hm, quite a lot of info there, none of which i understand. anything i should be looking for relating to the mount fail? [20:15] edbian: yeah currently i'm on the driver that is the newest that i want to use [20:15] forgot to mention your name there =D [20:15] Aegir (Quit) [20:15] Edisto: Ok. FYI it is the proprietary driver. sudo apt-get purge xserver-xorg-video-nouveau [20:15] j3roth, may be its easily to download martian-modem from some ftp ? [20:15] An_0ny_Moose:When you log out is there an option for it under window manager? [20:15] go8765:You can try. try googling for the Deb package. [20:15] Edisto: That command will remove the nouveau (open source) driver. After it's done you can run sudo lspci -k again and see that nouveau is missing from the list of modules. What questions do you have? [20:15] An_Ony_Moose: you could create a new .desktop file in /usr/share/xsessions/ (or copy and edit an existing one) replacing the Exec line with ratpoison...I'm surprised one isn't included by default anymore [20:16] trism: thanks [20:17] @player1up is it a Windows NTFS partition? The usual culprit is that it wasn't unmounted cleanly before, try: mount /dev/your.drive.here -o force [20:17] ?join #c [20:18] @player1up make sure to replace the /dev/your.drive.here with the actual path to the device file =) [20:18] edbian: it's still there. kernel modules: nvidia-current, nvidia, nouveau, nvidiafb. Do i need to restart? [20:18] tdn: not alternate this is minimal installation !mini [20:18] j3roth, i understood that i dont need update :) i make only sudo aptitude install martian-modem and in 5 minutes i have this pakge :) but how i can put from my virtualbox to ubuntu that have no internet now ? [20:19] !mini | tdn [20:19] tdn: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [20:19] anyone here a crontab expert? I can't seem to get any of my crontabs to run [20:19] Anybody can help me in spanish? [20:20] | tdn so its not an alternate [20:20] go8765: I believe you can run: aptitude download martian-modem [20:20] Snicers-Work2, man crontab. [20:20] Snicers-Work2, take a look at the existing ones in /etc/cron.* [20:20] @player1up: Or do fdisk -l, find which partition you're trying to make work. Then, do dmesg | grep , for example dmesg | grep /dev/sdb1 [20:20] Chenthu, ok. Did not know that one. [20:20] chavi_99: there's probably #ubuntu-es for spanish help [20:20] tdn : k [20:20] ok thanks [20:21] hey all, upgrade to 11.04 introduced many problems, first of all no desktop on gnome, second no network connection on xfce desktop so writing from my laptop. To solve desktop problem I am not sure where to start on xfce, It seems that I can not get IP address to start with [20:21] tdn: I have looked, everything seems fine. [20:21] brb [20:21] klevison: I'm back. any luck so far? [20:21] ustab; yeah i am strugling to install 11.04 for the past 50 hrs [20:22] utab: yeah, upgrades do have a high chance of failure, unfortunately... [20:22] Edisto: try a restart. [20:22] Edisto: We might have to blacklist it. [20:22] ustab: decided to go for 10.04 instead [20:22] j3roth, if i make: sudo aptitude install martian-modem , can i found now pakage that downloads and then installing ? may be in /var/cashe ? [20:23] as a debian user on laptop I almost never had problems of this kind, everytime I update ubuntu a lot of problems emerge... [20:23] Snicers-Work2, paste the crontab you are trying to get to work. [20:23] looking for ways to recover now [20:23] Snicers-Work2, do you install your crontab using crontab -e ? === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [20:23] quizno50 farchord thanks for ur help...i didnt actually figure anything out..but for some reason it now sees the HD... weird [20:23] Snicers-Work2, if it is a user crontab, you should not specify the user in the crontab. [20:24] tdn: I do crontab -e [20:24] player1up, hehe sometimes, if you just rub it's fur the right way.... XD [20:24] @player1up That is weird, good luck =) [20:24] Edisto: You might have to blacklist the driver [20:25] maybe the HD is about to fail or something? [20:25] it seems ok now though [20:25] farchord: /etc/init.d/networking restart does not give an error but I can not get ip as well, that is the first problem to start with otherwise I can not install any packages [20:25] j3roth, if i make: sudo aptitude install martian-modem , can i found now pakage that downloads and then installing ? may be in /var/cashe ? === Bite is now known as bite__ [20:25] Snicers-Work2, paste your crontab here: http://p.adora.dk === bite__ is now known as bite_ [20:25] the only line in my crontab is * * * * * /opt/scripts/sqlBackup.sh [20:25] @player1up Always make sure you've got the important stuff backed up somewhere... Never know when it's going to fail... =( [20:26] go8765: Yeah you should find it in: /var/cache/apt/archives [20:26] quizno50: this has given me a wake up call...backing up now :D [20:26] is moving a partition ponentially less dangerous then resizing one [20:26] Snicers-Work2, ok. Do this: add this line: * * * * * date >> /tmp/crontest [20:26] utab, only thing I can think of is open a separate console window, and type tail -f /var/log/messages, and then try to do a networking restart [20:26] Snicers-Work2, did you do that? [20:27] utab: But I have to admit, your install seems pretty.... screwed up [20:27] Snicers-Work2, then quit editor to install crontab. [20:27] Then look in /tmp in a minute to see if /tmp/crontest has been created. [20:27] I have an NAS on my home network and in Windows it shows up in my computer. I know that if I DBAN that machine with a flash drive connected to it it would wipe that drive, but would the data on my NAS be at risk if the computer was connected to the network while DBAN was running?

Just, complete poweroff? [20:40] in chrome, I don't see a blinking cursor in the Omnibar [20:40] GuyCanada: how are your fans configured cause that could be the problem too [20:40] is that normal?

[20:40] Xodiac13, I'll go on a whim and assume he never fiddled with his fans, and hes using a stock setup :) [20:41] GuyCanada: i had a buddy of mine all he had to do is was change his fan configuration and it stopped overheating [20:41] farchord: screen goes black, everyhting turns off i need to hit the power button for it to turn on again so [20:41] farchord: okay thanks [20:41] Xodiac13: http://growingtheneurons.blogspot.com/2011/05/getting-netgear-wnda3100v2-to-work-on.html [20:41] admiralvorian thanks i will check it out [20:41] how do i find out which keyboard driver is used for an usb keyboard?

I'd be able to check it if it was in front of me, not too sure about guiding someone... but if it just hard shuts down mate, there's a high chance its either your CPU or GPU going nuts [20:42] Snicers-Work2: They're just scripts, you can do anything you want in them. === pothos_ is now known as pothos [20:43] GuyCanada, For the CPU, wait for it to do it again, and go in your BIOS, there should be a section in it for monitoring with the chassis/cpu/chipset temps [20:43] i changed my name [20:43] with /nick name [20:43] Snicers-Work2: try reading a bash tutorial, using some system commands in a script is easy [20:43] still don;t work === fknowned is now known as milw0rm [20:43] farchord: thanks, well the cpu appears fine i can do whatever i normally do all day with no problem but as soon as i play a game it shuts down so i beleive the problem is the gpu, part of me thinks its still heat tho somehow [20:43] GuyCanada, unfortunately that says nothing about the GPU, that one is tougher to find [20:43] maulana@maulana-Lenovo-G460:/$ how to make like this maulana@G460:/$ on my terminal ?

[21:06] Clerisy, why not? [21:06] XuMuK» i need something that actually tansfers it, not the file manager [21:06] emmkai: also check if your router doesn't already provide some sort of VPN capability, might save you some time [21:06] Clerisy: can you transfer via bluetooth? [21:06] no ThinkT510 [21:06] usb [21:07] Clerisy, it perfectly transfer whatever you want [21:07] fmauro: the server will either be connected to a router or a 3G dongle [21:07] transfers* [21:07] no way to edit the go menu then? [21:07] emmkai: you mean both machines are volatile? both change places all the time? [21:08] emmkai: If possible I would suggest setting the static one as server [21:08] i need help in adding nouveau to blacklist i tried opening the file and adding blaclist nouveau but it is read only [21:09] fmauro it might be like that in some cases that they will both be volatile, but i'd hope the each 3-4 weak session, the server will be static [21:09] Edisto: sudo nano /path/to/file [21:09] Edisto: just make sure you know what to edit and how [21:10] emmkai: I take it this is to establish ssh connectivity to the outside, or do you need other services as well?

[21:28] logout [21:28] nrao, and it is 11.04 ...yes? [21:28] Either there is a bug, or I am pressing something that shifts all of my desktops over by one. [21:28] go8765:Good luck! [21:28] coz, yes, it's 11.04 - Printer installs ok, even followed instructions on brother's web site [21:29] coz_, test page says it was sent to printer, but nothing appears on the printer [21:29] thinkt510: when i go to sound and choose hardware configure it shows nothing.... is there a way to reinstall sound drivers from os install? [21:29] nrao, this apparenlty had happened with a previous user earlier to day with brother printer [21:30] Edisto: was the nvidia driver the only thing you blacklisted? [21:30] coz_, was there any solution? [21:30] yeah just the nouveau [21:30] nrao, not that I recall... he had downloaded the driver,, the system announced it was recogn ized but nothing happened [21:31] coz_, any other ideas I can try?

[21:33] wait i just heard something.... that is odd... i can hear 1 web page but my music files, the other and movies are not playing sound [21:33] how do you mount iso files in ubuntu ? :s [21:33] coz_, 32bit [21:33] emmkai, gmountiso [21:33] !loop | emmkai [21:33] coz_, it's AMD if that matters [21:33] Xodiac13, Google a bit for Ubuntu + device name. There's quite a bit of pages. [21:33] kiss [21:33] !iso | emmkai [21:33] emmkai: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.

[21:35] ThinkT510, did you run sudo update-initramfs -u and sudo update-grub and also reboot [21:35] Thanks for that ThinkT510, do you mount your isos at the top of your drive ? that is " / " [21:35] Xodiac13, ah... well then it's troubleshooting time. I suggest you follow a guide that promises to work (like the one I posted) and find out exactly where it goes wrong. If you have a specific error it'd be a lot easier for people to help you, rather than 'it doesn't work'. [21:35] Edisto: sorry, not a sound expert, hopefully somebody else can help [21:35] Shamis: you must use proper driver for your network card, some are supported out of the box, some need additional work [21:35] Hyperbyte: okay have you gotten this device to work before [21:36] emmkai: no, make a directory: sudo mkdir /mnt/whateveryouwanttocallit [21:36] So jzbl, I need an Ubuntu driver for the wireless? [21:36] nrao, did you loook here? http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/index.html [21:36] Hyperbyte: the problem i have is when i show it the .inf file it freezes and then i have to reinstall ndiswrapper and hopefully try again [21:36] robin0800: i think you got the wrong person [21:36] Xodiac13, no. I think your chances of randomly bumping into someone who has are quite slim. [21:36] coz_, that's where I got the drivers [21:36] Hyperbyte: yeah true [21:36] nrao, did you look through the how to install section? [21:36] hello people, i want to create a an update proxy server which downloads the updates and servers them to the others machines who need to do them. the challenge is that the client machines are windows OS [21:36] coz_, and followed instructions from [21:37] Hyperbyte: i think im going to have to wait till drivers come out for it [21:37] anyone able to help me as to why i'm able to hear sound from 1 source but the rest of my sound is not working? [21:37] nrao, ok then I would suggest either or both ##hardware or ##linux channels.. maybe someone there has a solugion [21:37] sooo... what is Archive Mounter good for ? [21:38] coz_, thanks for help. I'll try there [21:38] hello guys... [21:38] Xodiac13, well, to be honest, I can't really help you with it, because I know too little about ndiswrapper. But Google on the problem, and see if you can run ndiswrapper with more debug logging, so you get more details about where exactly it goes wrong. If it's hangs that's no good, but you need a specific error message for people to help you if it's not a common issue. [21:38] i have a slight issue....

I'm doing `sudo apt-get upgrade` and got `The following packages have been kept back: irssi`. Why is that? [21:54] davesys: sudo apt-get update [21:54] hi! I want to use mc with SMB. I know, that it disabled. I downloaded the deb-src, I recently built it, but it had no samba. I want to send '--with-samba' option to `make`, but I'm using `dpkg-buildpackage`. May I set environment variable (maybe CFLAGS) to "--with-samba"? Will it work? [21:54] davesys: does the problem still exist after running sudo apt-get update? [21:54] dunpeal: what does `apt-cache policy irssi` say? [21:54] dunpeal, missing dependencies. [21:55] dunpeal, will probably show up though relax. ;) [21:55] iceroot, i have done that.. [21:55] antivirtel: change debian/rules which should hold the build-options [21:55] dunpeal: Probably easiest to pastebin the output [21:55] Flannel: http://dpaste.com/578921/ [21:55] i get the same response.. [21:56] davesys: is this your first time running apt-get? [21:56] davesys: then move the file /var/lib/apt/lists/gh.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_natty_main_binary-i386_Packages to another place and rerun sudo apt-get update [21:56] no [21:56] ok, nice suggestion iceroot, but there is a line "# DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE DIRECTLY #" what is the indirect way? [21:56] nit-wit: hm? I want to update irssi... [21:56] i installed server version 10... and updated it. [21:57] antivirtel: the correct way is to place a patch which will patch the rules-file while building [21:57] dunpeal: Are you on ... 10.10? [21:57] Flannel: yup. [21:57] antivirtel: but if you are not send the package upstream, just using local i would edit the rules-file directly [21:57] dunpeal: Alright, so it seems you've added natty sources to your maverick install. [21:58] Flannel: err, sorry, I'm on Natty [21:58] dunpeal: if you want to update irssi just run "sudo apt-get install irssi" to get the newest version from the repos [21:58] [21:58] ok iceroot. Is "DEB_CONFIGURE_EXTRA_FLAGS := --with-samba" line correct? [21:58] when i run sudo get update, i get: Fetched 503 kB in 1min 29s (5,646 B/s) Reading package lists... Error!

[21:58] iceroot: OK, but why is that happening at all? [21:59] antivirtel: i dont know, some debs are using make directly with option, others are using the debhelper-configure vars [21:59] dunpeal: what is happening? [21:59] iceroot: irssi being kept back [21:59] dunpeal: normally because of a dependency-problem [21:59] iceroot ok, I try with a line first :) thanks - some minutes and "feedback" :D [22:00] dunpeal: for infos like that, aptitude is much better then apt-get [22:00] dunpeal: packages are kept back when they have dependencies that can't be satisfied, "upgrade" won't install new packages (if package A moves from requiring package B to package C, instead of just a newer version of package B) [22:00] davesys, are you running apt-get through a proxy? [22:00] dunpeal: [22:00] dunpeal: I don't know of any reason why irssi would move to different dependencies, let alone if you're originally on 11.04 and haven't done anything odd with your sources [22:00] Flannel: I see. [22:01] Flannel: right, and this is a very minor update [22:01] qin: ? [22:01] dunpeal: However, you can get apt to install new packages (package C in the above example) by doing dist-upgrade instead of upgrade [22:01] dunpeal: install irssi with aptitude and aptitude will tell you exactly what is going on [22:01] iceroot: how can I get that info with aptitute? [22:01] dunpeal: It should be, yeah, that's why I asked if you were doing something odd with Ubuntu versions. [22:01] dunpeal: just install it with aptitude [22:01] Flannel: I'm running off a Minimal CD install if that matters at all :) [22:01] dunpeal: if you do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, you'll get it to work. If you want to know what it's going to bring in, you can do sudo apt-get --simulate dist-upgrade [22:01] iceroot: what's the syntax? [22:02] dunpeal: sudo aptitude install irssi [22:02] dunpeal: Well, first you'd have to install aptitude. It's really not worth the effort. [22:02] Flannel: i think its worth [22:02] iceroot, Flannel: thanks, I know what it is. [22:02] Flannel: the infos from apt-get are very bad [22:02] dunpeal: minimal CD shouldn't affect anything. [22:02] dunpeal, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && sudo apt-get install irssi [22:02] Flannel, iceroot: I built my own irssi package with check-install [22:02] iceroot: "How do I do X with program A" "Install program B!" isn't helpful. [22:02] dunpeal: Ah, that would definately do it then. [22:03] dunpeal: You just want to dist-upgrade, and that'll sort it out. [22:03] so I guess I have to again [22:03] Flannel: the info why something is hold back is much much better with aptitude [22:03] Flannel: I think I should change the name of the packages I created myself === hacked is now known as vinces [22:04] using Ubuntu 10.04. How to pass compile time options using apt-get command!! i want to install the freetds package using apt-get with ssl support! [22:04] so they won't clash with newer Ubuntu packages. [22:04] dunpeal: You could just pin it as well. [22:04] dunpeal: pin the package to your version, and it won't try to upgrade [22:04] Flannel: sounds good, how can I pin? === __spock__ is now known as Spock [22:05] dunpeal: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto covers a variety of ways, man apt_preferences goes into copious detail for other alternatives [22:06] Flannel: thanks [22:06] dunpeal: I suppose the verbage on that page refers to it as "holding" instead of "pinning" (pinning is to a particular release, holding is a version, per that page) === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [22:06] How can I reomve Rhythmbox from Sound Menu?

[22:11] no [22:11] <__spock__> bah [22:11] <__spock__> been trying to speak with him for days [22:11] huh [22:12] fun times. if you want to boot to usb make sure you find out not only if you bios supports boot to usb but what mode it operates in [22:12] This is very disconcerting. I have google search and I find few people with this problems, and the few I have found, there are no answers for [22:12] paradigmultra what is your problem? [22:13] I lose the ability to click on things [22:13] MATLAB R2011a was released on April 8, 2011. Please note that this is prior to the release of Ubuntu 11.04. Consequently Ubuntu 11.04 is not a supported operating system for MATLAB R2011a. [22:13] WHAT [22:13] My mouse acts like nothing has focus [22:13] no windows or anyhtingg [22:13] sounds like graphics problems to me...just a guess [22:13] paradigmultra what version of ubuntu are you using and what gui are using (gnome, kde, xfce?) [22:14] I can still select things with the arow keys, and press space or enter, but the mouse clicker wont do it [22:14] are you in unity ? [22:14] Tech-1: I mean from the indicators [22:14] I'm using 11 with compiz and unity. But I've also had the issue loged in with "no effects" mode [22:14] how do I get my usb, cisco Linksys AE1000 wireless card to work? [22:14] huh, try loging into classic and see if it still does it [22:15] why is older software not supported by newer versions of operating systems (natty) ? [22:15] ^^ ya try classic [22:15] emmkai: like? [22:15] no i dont like [22:15] ParadigmUltra: try to login classic [22:15] see above [22:15] emmkai: like waht software? [22:15] MATLAB R2011a was released on April 8, 2011. Please note that this is prior to the release of Ubuntu 11.04. Consequently Ubuntu 11.04 is not a supported operating system for MATLAB R2011a [22:15] Tech-1: Does what? [22:15] like this software [22:15] ok, I'll try classic. just as soon as my backup is finished copying [22:16] emmkai, 11.04 means 2011 April [22:16] try it [22:16] emmkai: they named the reason [22:16] that matlib must have been too new to be included would be my guess [22:16] yes, i dont understand !! [22:16] emmkai: not supported doesnt mean it will not work, just that the manufactor doesnt garantie that it will work because it was not released when there software was [22:17] well... it doesnt run for some reason [22:17] where do you typically find the "executable" ? [22:17] emmkai: "which programname" will tell you [22:18] returns nothing, no error either [22:18] emmkai: /bin /usr/bin /sbin etc, which [22:18] well, i know where i installed it... but the actual executable [22:18] emmkai: dpkg -L package_name [22:20] Anyone know how to get per process disk io stats? [22:21] is there a way to run "sudo apt-get remove --purge" for all packages which are machting "dpkg -l | grep ^rc" without! using awk?

Could someone halp me in private? [22:27] *help [22:27] can anybody help me please to install drivers for Agere Systems LT WinModem in ubuntu ? [22:28] qin: ok without working with the output of dpkg -l. maybe something like sudo apt-get purge-packages-which-are-already-removed [22:28] go8765: normally there is a reason why it is called winmodem [22:29] skakri: create eth0:1 with "sudo ifconfig eth0:1 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 then put the new ip and the hostname into /etc/hosts [22:29] skakri: replace the ip and subnet with your needs [22:29] iceroot: is it not under "autoremove", not sure, since me and apt are not budddies. Does autoremove take purge? [22:29] iceroot, is it really to do it ? [22:29] Installed latetest NVidia drivers on HP EliteBook 8740w but keep getting a "FORCED" logout after 3-4min after logging in w/out a power supply connected [22:29] i just got my wireless device working and i need help because everytime im trying to connect to my secure connection it wont connect and i see it [22:30] i been trying to use the apt-get command to install some programs eg: php5 usb modeswitch etc.. but i get this error: Reading package lists... Error!

[22:30] qin: autoremove is removing packages which are no longer needed. e.g. there were installed because another program needen them but then the program gets removed but the dependecies are still there [22:30] go8765: yes [22:30] go8765: winmodems normally only works with windows === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [22:31] davesys: did you remoced the file as i suggested? [22:32] remoced? [22:32] i have a netgear wnda 3100 v2 i used ndiswrapper to install it its working and im able to find my network the problem is it wont let me connect not even to a unsecured network does anyone know a work around for this so i can get my wireless device talking please [22:32] compdoc: removed [22:32] iceroot: if aptitude is an option, aptitude search ~c; shows packages that were removed but not purged, and aptitude purge ~c; should purge them [22:32] iceroot, then put the new ip and the hostname into /etc/hosts - same hostname? [22:33] skakri: why then 2 ips when both are using the same hostname/domain? [22:33] trism: thank you i will have a look [22:33] Xodiac13: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1383708 [22:33] i have one nic, but two ips, I used to use one for Apache2, second for lighttp [22:34] All: OK still trapped out on liveCD at this point as even locked out of synaptic on HDD boot. Please read forum post and the PB post therein for full understanding of the problem. Thinking about complete re-install of 10.04, to get back to ground zero on this. Hope there are some networking gurus out there that can get me past the issues here. [22:34] Thanks! [22:34] iceroot, you disagree yourselve :) [22:34] gogeta thank you but i have ubuntu 11.04 i followed the guide exactly and it works i just need to be able to connect to my secured network everything is working fine but being able to connect [22:34] go8765: ? [22:34] reinstalled today and I'm lost how to set it up again [22:34] iceroot, yes or no ? :) can i use it on ubuntu ? [22:34] Xodiac13: does unsecured work [22:34] go8765: as i said, normally winmodems only works with windows [22:35] go8765: in your case i would ask google about the model and the possibility to use it with linux [22:35] gogeta: no i even tried an unsecured network just to see if it would even connect and it doesnt i dont know what it could be but im so close to getting connected to the network [22:35] Xodiac13: that guide applys to 11.04 [22:36] Xodiac13: someone asked how to get it to work on 11.04 same guide [22:36] gogeta: o okay ill take a look at it more to see whats going on [22:36] what happens if you get a virus on a virtual machine, can it move over to the native operating system? [22:36] Sorry all forum post at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11089497#post11089497 [22:36] iceroot, i have one nic, but two ips, I used to use one for Apache2, second for lighttp (I forgeot to add our name) [22:36] iceroot, ok. thanks. i try :) [22:36] newb: depending on the technic you are using [22:37] wow this empathy contact list bug / expanding window bug is really annoying [22:37] Xodiac13: just seems it take a bit of hacing [22:37] hacking [22:37] wow, i just want to run the program i was installing [22:37] gogeta its only for 9.04 but it might work [22:37] no [22:37] how can this be so hard [22:37] how do I get my usb, cisco Linksys AE1000 wireless card to work? [22:37] how do I get my usb, cisco Linksys AE1000 wireless card to work? [22:37] how do I get my usb, cisco Linksys AE1000 wireless card to work? [22:37] meway: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [22:37] skakri: i would create eth0:1. if you only need an ip and not a domain, just bind apache or lighttp to the other ip [22:37] Xodiac13: the guide is the same they just llink the guy that asked there and said it still works [22:37] woops [22:37] gogeta im excited cause i got this far i just want to connect to my network so i can update and install vid drivers and such [22:38] do they have Ubuntu music? [22:38] iceroot, with virtual box? [22:38] matlab documentation says: "matlab is a Bourne shell script that starts the MATLAB executable on UNIX" [22:38] newb: no not with virtualbox [22:38] iceroot, could you link me some tutorial? I'm really lost. [22:38] emmkai what is the program name you are trying to run and are you using 11.04 desktop? [22:38] i've used this command in macosx, but this does nothing here [22:38] newb: but with xen/kvm it should work (in theory) [22:38] iceroot, when can it happen? [22:38] this i 11.04 desktop, yes [22:39] Xodiac13: kind annoying you still gotta use tricks from 9.04 [22:39] newb: if you share something from the host, like the kernel or kernel.moduls [22:39] iceroot, i see [22:39] Where can I find the wireless sensitivity settings in ubuntu? (iwconfig wlan0 sens) [22:39] emmkai ok and you are trying to get matlib to work? [22:39] right [22:39] any particular version of matlib? [22:39] also iceroot, some tuts says that eth0 is primary, and eth0:0 is secondary - some says that eth0:1 is sec. Which is right one? [22:39] 2011a [22:39] gogeta: yeah ive installed the driver using ndiswrapper im just trying to see if there is a file i have to config in order for it to connect right [22:39] blew its load again [22:40] blowing its load [22:40] Hi everyone, this is my first time here. So my question is, I just want to send and receive SMS through my Huawei E1550 dongle. Are there any good softwares for that? Thanks in advance. [22:40] skakri: you can name it what you want eth0:0 eth0:foobar eth0:1 [22:40] iceroot, oh, k [22:40] gogeta: im seeing my network there has to be something ive googled and havent really seen anything unless im searching it wrong [22:40] once i become superuser, how do i end superuser mode? (i.e. go back to $ instead of #) [22:40] Xodiac13: you gotta do the firmware thing [22:40] skakri: the important part is eth0: which says that eth0 is the parrent [22:41] jetrost: exit [22:41] Xodiac13: then he said it should work [22:41] exit [22:41] idlemind324: i've followed these instructions very much exactly [22:41] gogeta: okay i hope it doesnt mess anything up [22:41] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MATLAB [22:42] but, the wizard never asked me to "create symbolick links to matlab scripts", [22:42] iceroot, my config looks like this - http://pastebin.com/5uzQ5jzA [22:42] iceroot, mythozz: thanks. [22:42] Xodiac13: guess the new firlware still isnt in the kernel [22:42] firmware [22:42] emmkai is it not feasible to run a virtualbox and install 10.04 lts and use matlib 2011a there where it is supported? [22:43] skakri: dont know if auto eth0:1 is correct (only using ifconfig) but generally it looks correct [22:43] idlemind324: Matlab on Vbox will be a huge performance hit [22:43] :( i think it should run, i just simply dont know how to run it ! [22:43] gogeta: yeah im going to try it but i hope it doesnt mess with anything and there has to be someway to config a file or something in order for it to connect correctly [22:43] emmkai well my point is @ the start of that article they basically say if you want your hair to install 10.04 [22:43] Xodiac13: na just a new firmware driver [22:43] iceroot, the problem I have is - at main_ip:80 Apache2 runs ok, but secondary_ip:80 shows the same as A2 [22:44] gogeta: okay [22:44] gogeta: im going to try it real quick [22:44] gosh, I suck [22:44] Xodiac13: says nettimne you plug it in it should start working [22:44] emmkai now if you don't care for your hair or simply just want to grind it out and make it work then so be it but sadly i probably am not going to be a whole lot help =( [22:44] so, can i do that "on top of" 11,04 ? [22:44] skakri: in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf there is 0.0.0.0:80 change it to the ip you want. 0.0.0.0 means every ip from your system [22:44] iceroot: dpkg -l | grep ^rc | cut -f 3 -d " " | xargs sudo apt-get remove --purge -y -s (looks like workable stuff) [22:44] skakri: also this can be a vhost-enty [22:44] do i have to format my computer and install another OS idlemind324 ? [22:44] emmkai you can run a virtualbox with a vm of 10.04 and matlib on top of 11.04 ... like jzbl said you will notice a performance hit === sosuke_ is now known as sosuke [22:45] emmkai i've never used matlib so i can't say how well it will perform but alot also depends on your current hardware [22:45] qin: thanks but the question was without working with the output from dpkg -l (or any other string operations) [22:45] hello, if I fail and add a irresponsible repository for a software like mendeley, they can simply update my X.org, next time I do apt-get dist-upgrade can't they? [22:45] but, what if i format my computer ... which i alright, i just formatted [22:46] MrKeuner: yes [22:46] iceroot, [ "80" not found ] [22:46] [22:46] emmkai if you formatted you might as well run 10.04 or 10.10 and just have it working until matlib updates for 11.04 [22:46] there is a lot of functionality that's in 11.04 but not in 10right ? [22:46] at apache2.conf [22:46] skakri: habe a look at #httpd to say apache that it will listen only on one specific ip [22:46] emmkai well one plus 10.10 doesn't have unity (lol insert unity jokes here) [22:46] iceroot, you trust a repository once and for all, then. Isn't this a security flaw? [22:46] MrKeuner: it is [22:46] what's that ? [22:47] i'm about to buy a new nic... can someone tell me if they can identify a difference between these two cards? they look identical besides price [22:47] http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833106121 [22:47] http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833106123 [22:47] asdf-: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [22:47] MrKeuner: because of that all repos which are not from ubuntu/canocial are untrusted [22:47] emmkai the new desktop environment that came out with 11.04 [22:47] emmkai other than that most everything else is the same mate [22:47] which is not so good, apparently :) [22:47] iceroot, all untrusted including PPAs, right? [22:47] MrKeuner: correct [22:48] well, great, then ill just format my computer [22:48] iceroot, Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address ; so lighttpd has already reserver main ip, I guess? [22:48] Xodiac13: oh lol are you using mac adress filtering [22:48] *reserved [22:48] skakri: lighttp is already using the port on that ip [22:49] I'll stop it [22:49] skakri: apache and lighttp can use the same ip but they have ti use different ports [22:49] iceroot, thanks [22:50] gogeta: no [22:50] yawn [22:50] Xodiac13: it working now [22:50] iceroot, still, i just ran service lighttpd stop and service apache2 start - same error. [22:50] gogeta: i just installed the firmware and im restarting just to be sure and lets see [22:50] hey idlemind324 , you mean i should get 10.04, not 10.10 ? [22:50] asdf-, look at the descripyion standards [22:51] for some reason, it's not offered in ubuntu.com [22:51] emmkai either works, a lot of folks prefer 10.10 but 10.04 lts has a longer lifecycle (cuz it's a lts) ... so it's a horse a piece [22:51] OerHeks, the same... the only difference i see now is a chip in the picture [22:51] but the specs are the same [22:51] gogeta: it seems to be talking to the router and still trying to connect [22:51] :) === will is now known as Guest43673 [22:52] asdf, no, IEEE 802.1p, IEEE 802.1Q, IEEE 802.2, IEEE 802.3ab, IEEE 802.3x, WfM 2.0 versus 802.2 and 802.3ab [22:52] gogeta: i think that guide was for unsecured network [22:53] Xodiac13: well give it a try so we knoe where we are at === Guest43673 is now known as wiill [22:53] emmkai 10.10 will be supported until 2012 April and 10.04 will be supported until 2013 April so pick your poison =) [22:53] gogeta: im trying unsecured right now [22:53] OerHeks, what does that mean? one is better than the other? === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [22:53] OerHeks, which one do you recommend? [22:53] gogeta: it seems to be wanting to talk but its not wanting to connect [22:53] asdf-, yes, the one with lager specs is better. [22:54] anyone know a good tutorial for logging messages with iptables and rsyslog? [22:54] * larger [22:54] Anyone have problems with the propriatary NVidia drivers for QUADRO cards? [22:54] Xodiac13: sounds like dhcp is failing [22:54] !ufw [22:54] Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Gufw (GNOME) and Guarddog (KDE Lucid and Maverick) also exist. [22:54] love4linux: ^^^ [22:54] gogeta: yeah so it could be the router [22:54] gogeta: ? [22:54] OerHeks, thank you === TheDaniel0108 is now known as Daniel0108 [22:55] gogeta: nm it cant be all my comps are all connected to the router [22:55] Xodiac13: if you have a mac filter yes you have to whitelist the new mac adress [22:55] Is it true you have to run LINUX on 3yr old hardware? === Uncle|Sam is now known as uncle|sam [22:55] qin thank you [22:55] spankbot: no but you can [22:55] gogeta: yeah but im not mac filtering so is there anyway we can config a file to fix the dhcp [22:56] Xodiac13: try dhclient wlan0 [22:56] gogeta: k [22:56] gogeta: it says permission denied [22:56] sudo then [22:56] sudo dhclien wlan0 [22:56] gogeta: lol oops [22:56] lol [22:57] is it saying timeout or denied [22:57] love4linux: And legendary iptables tautorial: http://www.frozentux.net/iptables-tutorial/iptables-tutorial.html [22:57] spankbot: no. [22:57] gogeta, jzbl then why is graphics driver support seem so behind? [22:57] iceroot, same - Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 188.138.104.240:80 [22:57] gogeta: its thinking and it shouldnt take long to think i mean this comp has more than enough ram and its pretty new [22:58] qin ufw does not seem very advanced... like most of the gui firewalls [22:58] iceroot, should I restart? [22:58] Xodiac13: mean the cards not sending packets [22:58] gogeta: dang [22:58] spankbot: you are saying that driver is "behind" but reffering to your particular box that does not work? [22:58] love4linux: Really? [22:58] Xodiac13: humm [22:58] gogeta: yeah [22:59] qin the other two links though look good... especially the last one [22:59] qin i mean in terms of defining specific rules not just port protocol allow/deny [22:59] Hi, I've set up a mount of a windows share on ubuntu, yet can only change stuff when I open as root.

[23:00] jzbl: I'm saying the driver does not appear to exist because Linux is behind. My concern is I'm trying to get something new to work that simply not work with Today's Linux.. come back and a year or 2 later it will.. That has been my experience with Linux desktop distros that I've been working with the last 11 years [23:00] Xodiac13: used a combination of this thread and the one above to get this to work. [23:00] [23:00] What I discovered is that security needs to be set to WPA and not WPA2. [23:01] gogeta: uh so i will try real quick and brb [23:01] spankbot: you have it for free. [23:01] Xodiac13: someone says it need to be in 5ghz mode as well [23:01] gogeta: okay [23:02] gogeta: will do brb going to change settings [23:02] jzbl and I have Windows and every other os distro for free too ;-) [23:02] spankbot: oh that is not nice, I am using dual boot machine and paid for XP on it.

[23:32] Xodiac13: then just wpa_passphrase mywireless_ssid secretpassphrase > /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf [23:32] gogeta: so its this sudo wpa_passphrase (Wirelessname)_ssid "secretpassword" > /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf [23:32] jzbl: thanks for entertaining my frustration. I'm looking into other options, such as reverting to default drivers and dealing with the other problems I'm having with VMWare Workstation... [23:32] aetas, ubuntu-tweak has some really nice options [23:33] hey all... anyone know how to get a shell command to never return a non-zero exit code? [23:33] Xodiac13: sudo wpa_passphrase mywireless_ssid secretpassphrase > /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf [23:33] Xodiac13: if you put in ( or" you mess it up [23:33] wiill, nice options for?

[23:42] Troy^: yes [23:42] gogeta: still being the same [23:42] i think last time i installed it everything worked ok but there was a slight problem with ati drivers and something wrong with the wirless not taking my password wpa2 i belive [23:43] mines doing the same thing [23:43] Xodiac13: so its now connectiong but not supporting wpa [23:43] is therea way, to remain on ubuntu 10.04, but pull one package from ubuntu 11.04 ? [23:43] gogeta: it only connects to nonsecured networks [23:43] Why do I have to run “sudo alsa force-reload” after every boot? [23:43] Xodiac13: yea means securty isnt working [23:43] gogeta: dang [23:44] semitones_, i can be cause by removing a disk, changes to the partitions. anyhow ~ reinstall !grub to fix it [23:44] maum, without the error message for why it didnt do it properly on boot, we have no idea === buddha_ is now known as nullm0dem [23:44] Xodiac13: you're having trouble connecting to your home secure network?

But hold on, i'll try again (sudo update-grub, sudo grub install /dev/sda) [23:45] is there a way of transfering a file from a host to a virtual machhine run on virtual box? [23:45] aetas, I cannot hear any sound whenever I reboot PC [23:45] gogeta: yeah so close [23:45] Xodiac13: did you try different password encryption setting on your router? [23:45] aetas, temporary solution is sudo alsa force-reload [23:45] Troy^: its on wpa psk and wpa2 aes [23:45] Troy^: or should i only do wpa2 [23:46] aetas, but I want permanent solution [23:46] Xodiac13: crank it all the way down to wep and i bet it will connect [23:46] Xodiac13: but everyone knoes that sucks [23:46] gogeta: lol yeah [23:46] Xodiac13: honestly no idea but i had the same problem last time i installed ubuntu on my asus g73jh and tried wep instead it did work and yes it blows lol [23:47] gogeta: to bad i dont have a setting on my router like some i see it has wep wpa and wpa2 [23:47] even so wep is very insecure [23:47] Anyone here done ubuntu on a flash drive?

I have 2 questions [23:50] gogeta: its half assing [23:51] gogeta: lol [23:51] 1) Is it possible to insert flash drive, and insert CD and just install to it like a normal HD? [23:51] yes [23:51] it is [23:51] 2) How is the speed compared to say a 5400RPM PATA [23:51] ? [23:52] with that low of an rpm for an hd theres probably no difference now from a 10000rpm yes [23:52] Hi does anyone know how I can impose hardware restrictions on different users? For instance, a limit on the amount of RAM/HD space they can use. [23:52] Xodiac13: so faster than a 5400? [23:52] Gent: lol i couldnt tell you but ive dont it before and it wasnt to bad [23:53] gogeta: so anymore tricks up the sleeve [23:53] Xodiac13: I don't plan on doing it really, I'm just giving a presentation tonight and I wanted to express to people that they could install this on a flash drive and have a mobile web development system [23:53] Xodiac13: yes i do [23:53] http://www.thruput.co.uk/products/monitors/56-8-Megapixel-3840x2160-Display [23:53] will that work on a displayport graphics card? [23:53] Xodiac13: you might need to install a extra file to get wpa to work [23:53] but I don't want to recommend 1) If they have to do some special install 2) If it's going to be slow as hell [23:53] such as ati eyefinity edition cards? [23:53] Aaronds: For hd space have a look at quotas. [23:53] taht suport 6 monitors per card? [23:54] Gent: okay yeah your good as long as the bios supports booting from a flash drive [23:54] Xodiac13: linux-backports-wireless-lucid-generic [23:54] ty vlt [23:54] any idea if Macs do? [23:54] There's a lot of Mac freaks out there [23:54] can i take ubuntu... change the wall paper.. and call it joint linux? [23:54] gogeta: am i going to have to uninstall ndiswrapper [23:54] joint: yes [23:54] 56 inch lcd display at 3840x2160 would be awsome on my ubuntu desktop... especially 6 of them [23:54] Xodiac13: seems toy need to install the wireless backports file to get wpa to work [23:54] gent: the bios thing xodiac pointed out is important ... it's what kicked my butt for a few days. the bios may support boot from usb but there are three kinds. you need boot from usb-hdd [23:54] gogeta: so just install and dont uninstall ndiswrapper [23:55] Xodiac13: yep [23:55] Aaronds: And there is somethinig for RAM limitations but I forgot how it's called. But possible. [23:55] idlemind324: ok, question remains... do you know if Macs will do that? I know they don't have a BIOS in a traditional sense... but will they attempt to boot from a USB? [23:55] gogeta: it said unable to locate the file [23:55] ok vlt, I'm researching at the moment but a lot of what I get is in regards to the RAM differences between 32/64 bit ubuntu >_< [23:56] . [23:56] gent: i know you can boot to usb hdd's (externals) but i haven't tried a flash drive yet on mac [23:56] Aaronds: The word "ulimit" just came to my mind. Maybe googling that helps. [23:56] ok cheers vlt [23:57] idlemind324: very well [23:57] !@#$ing apple [23:57] I have a good feeling they wouldn't support it [23:57] Xodiac13: sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic [23:57] gogeta: lol should i use 64bit lol cause im using 32bit and i have 6 gigs of ram [23:57] gent: o it's far from supported mate =) doesn't mean it won't work [23:57] gogeta: i will try that again [23:57] Xodiac13: yes acully [23:58] gogeta: wow lol [23:58] gent: the flash drives work slightly different than a traditional usb hard drive so all you have to do is give it a try [23:58] gogeta: were to start [23:58] Xodiac13: or you whont use all your ram [23:58] !info linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic lucid [23:58] gogeta: yeah i want to use all my ram [23:58] linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic (source: linux-meta): Backported wireless drivers for generic kernel image.
