[00:00] <italoxp> Troy^, it depends on your use, dude
[00:00] <intel_ix> It's the same os loader.
[00:00] <intel_ix> which ubuntu made
[00:00] <intel_ix> well, I dono if they made grub, but wubi anyway
[00:00] <Troy^> italoxp: i have no idea just general use is there lots that take up space? i know apps and the install is fairly small would you say 80-100gb?
[00:01] <v3nd3tta``> zykotick9: yeah all my partitions (exept swap) are ext4
[00:01] <nath0> Hey
[00:01] <vlt> zykotick9: Isn't it possible to install grub from a Ubuntu live CD? (Never tried this myself, I always use grml.org CD)
[00:01] <italoxp> Troy^, I had an Ubuntu install for a while, and I never used more than 10Gb for apps
[00:01] <zykotick9> v3nd3tta``, sorry I have no idea why you can't change ownership.  Best of luck.
[00:02] <Troy^> italoxp: alright ill go with a 60-80gb install then
[00:02] <italoxp> Troy^, for Ubuntu itself, I wouldn't give more then 30Gb
[00:02] <zykotick9> vlt, i have NO idea how WUBI works....
[00:02] <vlt> zykotick9: Me neither.
[00:02] <zykotick9> vlt, but YES you can certainly reinstall grub from LiveCD - but Wubi???
[00:02] <italoxp> Troy^, if you're gonna use only Ubuntu, put the rest on /home
[00:02] <qin> v3nd3tta``: what if you cp <folder with 1001> <somewhere else>, does nautilus see it proper?
[00:02] <Troy^> italoxp: well im going to dual boot with windows 7
[00:03] <italoxp> Troy^, if you're gonna use another OS, put it on another partition that can be read by boath
[00:03] <vlt> zykotick9: I don't care for this WUBI thing. I just wanted to let him try to re-install grub.
[00:03] <italoxp> Troy^, so, it's quite the same setup here
[00:03] <italoxp> Troy^, I have Ubuntu 11.04 and Win 7 running on dual boot
[00:03] <Troy^> italoxp: yea well my second 500gb is full of data or i would use a whole seperate drive for different OS
[00:03] <vlt> !wubi
[00:03] <italoxp> I have 30Gb on /, 8Gb on /var , 500mb on /boot and 500mb on swap
[00:04] <italoxp> 30gb for Windos and the rest on a ntfs partition
[00:04] <Troy^> all the stuff i would want to access in ubuntu is on my second 500gb drive NTFS with video/music etc.
[00:05] <vlt> intel_ix: Is your computer connected via ethernet cable? If yes, you could join this channel again when running from live cd ...
[00:07] <Troy^> i definietly want to get into some bash programming and then eventually get into perl/python
[00:07] <italoxp> Troy^, so... I don't know
[00:07] <intel_ix> how would I install an irc client while on a liveusb?
[00:08] <dr_willis> intel_ix:  sudo apt-get install weechat
[00:08] <italoxp> Troy^, but I'm telling you, Ubuntu won't use too much disk space
[00:08] <dr_willis> theres  an irc client or 2 allready installed i belive
[00:08] <intel_ix> well i'll try that, as soon as the disk is finished being duiplicated
[00:09] <ctv> i have a little question:
[00:09] <asw3> the application 'google chrome' (/opt/google/chrome/chrome) wants access to the default keyring , but it is locked
[00:09] <asw3> where can i find info about this?
[00:10] <intel_ix> should be in ssh configuration
[00:10] <ctv> i have thi command (work fine):
[00:11] <vlt> intel_ix: irssi could be available on live cd.
[00:11] <Troy^> im pretty sure it is
[00:11] <ctv> dvsink-files -h 127.0.0.1 -p 8080 namefile
[00:11] <zykotick9> ctv, try putting your question all on one line.  see "/msg ubottu ask"
[00:11] <italoxp> Who uses irssi?
[00:11] <mehwork> how do you install the 64-bit version of java in lucid lynx (10.04)?
[00:11] <italoxp> What's wrong with xchat?
[00:11] <ctv> ok thanks...
[00:11] <Troy^> italoxp: nothing wrong with either of them
[00:11] <dr_willis> italoxp:  irssi and weechat are smaller text only irc clients.
[00:11] <italoxp> mehwork, isn't in repositories?
[00:12] <dr_willis> !java | mehwork
[00:12] <rww> !java | mehwork
[00:12] <zelozelos> mehwork did u google, its usually right there
[00:12] <Maghion> server irc.coldfront.net
[00:12] <Maghion> epic fail
[00:12] <Troy^> italoxp: most people who are use to mirc on windows will generally go to xchat in linux do to it having its own window interface
[00:12] <italoxp> dr_willis, I didn't know about weechat. But  I didn't like irssi very much .-.
[00:12] <dr_willis> italoxp:  it pays to read its docs...  same for weechat
[00:13] <zelozelos> Troy^, i think you're asking for #windows
[00:13] <Troy^> i personally use to use bitchx
[00:13] <dr_willis> italoxp:  its a text based irc client. similer to the original irc clients i used in college in the late 80's :)
[00:13] <Troy^> zelozelos: no i wasn't :P
[00:13] <zelozelos> hehee
[00:14] <Troy^> hmm weechat looks decent never used it, dr_willis do you prefer it over irssi
[00:15] <dr_willis> i  perfer weechat over irssi... all the time. :) using weechat now.. no tused irssi in ages.
[00:15] <italoxp> Well, xchat is enough for me
[00:15] <dr_willis> it all depends on your needs.
[00:15] <Troy^> yea im gong to give weechat a go, i use to use bitchx
[00:15] <v3nd3tta``> zykotick9 & qin - killing nautilus after chown did the trick, dunno why it was so strange, however thank you for your help, see you not so soon again (for a support case :x)
[00:15] <Snooffy> clausen: what about such simple solution as this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=175763?
[00:15] <ctv> i have this command line:   <dvsink-files -h 127.0.0.1 -p 8080 namefile> i want create a launcher with a popup for write <namefile>, do it's possible? i am newbe....
[00:16] <dr_willis> ctv:  its possible, via bash and some of the gui-dialog commands..
[00:16] <mehwork> dr_willis: i have lucid and alreayd have openjdk-6-jre, but google chrome still complains i dont have java installed for certain web pages
[00:16] <zykotick9> v3nd3tta``, glad you got it figured out
[00:16] <Troy^> ctv: #bash might help more?
[00:16] <dr_willis> ctv:  or you could make a nautilus script for it. that you select a file, then run the script
[00:16] <Jonatatt1> Hi, I was wondering if anybody knows how to give other users besides root access to netstats?
[00:17] <Jonatatt1> Without using su(do)
[00:17] <dr_willis> Jonatatt1:  using sudo/sudoers would be the safest way.
[00:17] <dr_willis> Jonatatt1:  if it has to run as root. you could set the 'suid' but. but thats condisered bad securty practices
[00:17] <Pici> Jonatatt1: netstat can be used without sudo.
[00:17] <qin> netstat can be run with no sudo
[00:17] <mehwork> netstat isn't suid root like ping is
[00:18] <Jonatatt1> It doesn't show me any open connection when using a different user
[00:18] <dr_willis> i dont recall ever using netstat. :)
[00:18] <mehwork> how do i install java so it'll run java applets in google chrome?
[00:18] <ctv> ok.. it's possible... but you have a link for a howto? thanks  a lot
[00:18] <Jonatatt1> I'm using it check if a server is running using a certain port
[00:18] <Pici> Jonatatt1: What arguments are you using with it?
[00:18] <Jonatatt1> -an
[00:18] <dr_willis> ctv:  theres a dozen ways you could do it.. depending on the details.
[00:19] <itaylor57> mehwork, you need the java plugin installed
[00:19] <mehwork> -an should be fine
[00:19] <mehwork> -b or -p i think need root
[00:19] <mehwork> itaylor57: right, how do i get it for lucid lynx (10.04) though
[00:19] <Pici> Jonatatt1: Add -t for tcp ports.
[00:19] <Pici> er, protocol
[00:19] <qin> Jonatatt1: -tupe
[00:19] <mehwork> itaylor57: their website only has a .rpm or .bin for it
[00:19] <itaylor57> it should be in the repos
[00:19] <Jonatatt1> Let me try, hold on
[00:20] <mehwork> is there an openjdk browser plugin or do i have to get the sun-java6-plugin
[00:21] <wols_> !info icedtea6-plugin
[00:21] <itaylor57> mehwork, sunjava6plugin
[00:21] <Jonatatt1> Doesn't give me any results either, besides from: "netstat: no support for `AF INET (sctp)' on this system."
[00:21] <BlueMatt> anyone know why mountall would fail to daemonize after running, and just exit instead?
[00:22] <mehwork> wols_: will it play minecraft in browser?
[00:22] <wols_> BlueMatt: why should it daemonize? it has mounted whatever it wants to
[00:22] <itaylor57> mehwork, you will need the sun one to play minecraft
[00:22] <wols_> mehwork: if you want maximum compatibility, use Oracle's Java
[00:22] <Jonatatt1> openJDK works fine though
[00:22] <Jonatatt1> (when playing minecraft)
[00:22] <italoxp> minecraft on browser? WTF?
[00:22] <BlueMatt> wols_: --daemonize is supposed to, as /etc/init/mountall-net.conf expects it to be running
[00:23] <BlueMatt> wols_: also, if it fails to mount a network drive, it still exits
[00:24] <intel_ix> minecraft is java
[00:25] <italoxp> intel_ix, pure java?
[00:25] <dr_willis> no cream or sugar?
[00:25] <italoxp> A Java game that makes success in 21 century?
[00:25] <italoxp> xD
[00:25] <intel_ix> it can use some windows dlls, but those are optional
[00:25] <intel_ix> just for faster IO
[00:25] <kenRich> hello everyone
[00:27] <mehwork> italoxp: the free version of minecraft only works in the browser
[00:28] <intel_ix> The paid one works in browser too though.
[00:28] <Jonatatt1> dr_willis: Sorry if I bother you, but how would I set the suid? Since I can't get it working for non-root :F
[00:29] <clausen> Snooffy, the link doesn't work for me
[00:29] <dr_willis> Jonatatt1:  set the 'suid bit' for the binary..
[00:30] <dr_willis> Jonatatt1:  but that would let ALL users have full access to it, as it would be running as root user. it could be a very big security hole.
[00:30] <clausen> Jonatatt1, chmod u+s netstat
[00:33] <bryce> I am confused with grep, to my understand its kinda like a function that searchs for a keyword but when i do .. 'grep "test" test.log'.. nothing happens?
[00:34] <dr_willis> Byan:  it searches using a 'regular expression'  on a file..
[00:34] <dr_willis> oops thjats for bryce  :)
[00:34] <bryce> dr_willis: Can you explain a little more? :)
[00:34] <dr_willis> grep pattern file
[00:35] <dr_willis> theres whole books written on using regular expressions and grep/sed/awk/perl/python
[00:35] <dr_willis> grep foo thefiletolookat.txt
[00:35] <dr_willis> would print every line that has foo in it
[00:36] <italoxp> dr_willis, I didn't know you could use grep that way
[00:36] <dr_willis> italoxp:  i dont really use it any other way. :)
[00:36] <italoxp> dr_willis, I'd use cat file.txt | grep foo  instead
[00:36] <preecher> having problems getting a creative usb cam to work on empathy---it does fine on cheese & also guvcvideo----not sure if i should come here or the empathy channel
[00:36] <dr_willis> cat is redundant in that case italoxp
[00:36] <dr_willis>  grep etc  /etc/bash.bashrc
[00:36] <dr_willis> cat /etc/bash.bashrc | grep etc -----------> same thing..
[00:36] <dr_willis> but cat is an extra uneeded thing.
[00:37] <dr_willis> your 'cat' is just using the grep ability to read from 'stdin'
[00:37] <italoxp> dr_willis, it's the way I'm used to...
[00:37] <italoxp> But the output is the same, right?
[00:37] <dr_willis> should be identical
[00:38] <Jonatatt1> True, but I don't see any other way to do it :F
[00:38] <Jonatatt1> As I need to have that other account access to it, since it needs to check if the server is running on that certain port
[00:38] <Pici> italoxp: The one thing grep can't do when reading from stdin is determine what file it is coming from... so something like: grep -l /etc/* foo will not match cat /etc/* | grep -l foo
[00:38] <exutux> italoxp: useless use of cat
[00:39] <exutux> http://partmaps.org/era/unix/award.html
[00:39] <bryce> okay thanks! :)
[00:39] <italoxp> hahahaha
[00:40] <ghostnik11> hi wanted to know if anyone could help me fix this issue: http://imagebin.org/165219 with windows in ubuntu 11.04
[00:40] <dr_willis> ghostnik11:  can you summarize the issue a bit. not everyone can go view every image..
[00:40] <hashitish> oi i got some badass images to link you guys ^^
[00:40] <hashitish> say the word
[00:41] <dr_willis> one reason most people in here dont go clicking on every image link posted.... :)
[00:41] <lwizardl> Hello
[00:41] <ghostnik11> dr_willis: sorry about that, well basically sometimes when i am using certain programs like empathy the window suddenly expannds to the other side of workspace as its doing now
[00:42] <lwizardl> I was wondering how do i force close a program ? thunderbird is not visibly open but when I click to open it. it says its open
[00:42] <ghostnik11> dr_willis: while i type the window just expands for no reason and it almost like i don't know if the problem is with compiz and unity conflicting
[00:42] <Pici> !ot | hashitish
[00:42] <hit0rid3> sudo killall thunderbird?
[00:43] <hashitish> i ok
[00:43] <dr_willis> ghostnik11:  sounds like some keyboard shortcut /metakey sticking
[00:44] <ghostnik11> dr_willis: how can i find out which keyboard shortcut is forcing the windows to expand
[00:44] <dr_willis> fire up ccsm and start disabling plugins perhaps.
[00:44] <ghostnik11> dr_willis: okay will disable all of them and see if problem occurs
[00:44] <BlueMatt> anyone know why mountall would fail to daemonize after running, and just exit instead? (when called with --daemonize and after failing to mount one network drive)
[00:44] <dr_willis> compiz still needs a nice way to get a readable printout of what keys are assigned to what functions
[00:45] <ghostnik11> dr_willis: so don't disable all of them
[00:45] <abstrakt> any ideas on this: "/sbin/mount.vboxsf: mounting failed with the error: Invalid argument", i mounted this disk once, successfully, immediately after installing the guest additions, on reboot, now I get that error
[00:45] <abstrakt> i'm googling, only on the first couple results, haven't found a solution yet
[00:45] <wols_> abstrakt: show us the mount command
[00:45] <abstrakt> sudo mount -t vboxsf vboxshare /media/winxpshare
[00:46] <abstrakt> that same commend worked fine once, the first time i ever ran it
[00:46] <abstrakt> after rebooting it doesn't work anymore
[00:46] <wols_> "vboxshare" is wrong IIRC. always was wrong
[00:46] <abstrakt> ?
[00:46] <abstrakt> vboxshare is arbitrary
[00:46] <abstrakt> that's what I named it, how can it be wrong?
[00:46] <abstrakt> it's an identifier, nothing more
[00:47] <wols_> abstrakt: lsmod |grep vbox
[00:47] <abstrakt> vboxsf                 35591  1 \nvboxguest             164044  2 vboxsf
[00:48] <Phr3d13> anyone a good enough programmer to port milkdrop visualization presets to Banshee's OpenVP Presets?
[00:48] <abstrakt> Phr3d13, better question, does anyone care and have enough time to do it for you
[00:48] <abstrakt> Phr3d13, even better question, can you teach yourself how to do it
[00:48] <abstrakt> pretty good goal actually, if you ask me
[00:49] <ghostnik11> dr_willis: one sec, just disabled the unity plugin in compiz and now the unity bar is gone and unity key doesn't bring up apps
[00:49] <abstrakt> like, you could give yourself a good education just with that goal
[00:49] <Phr3d13> abstrakt, kinda rude, if ya don't have anything nice to say...
[00:49] <hit0rid3> then YOU are the programmer and have all the power muahaha
[00:49] <abstrakt> Phr3d13, how is encouraging you to program rude?
 Phr3d13, better question, does anyone care and have enough time to do it for you
[00:50] <hit0rid3> true Phr3d that sound like a pretty big job to do for nothing
[00:50] <abstrakt> Phr3d13, and?
[00:51] <hit0rid3> sounds*
[00:51] <abstrakt> i mean, that's essentially what you were asking, just in a round about way
[00:51] <ghostnik11> dr_willis: i am going to restart my laptop and see if unity bar and unity comes back and if it doesn't will go into ubuntu classic from login and see if problem occurs then
[00:51] <abstrakt> anyway... still total mystery as to why this error is happening
[00:51] <dr_willis> Unity is so fun.
[00:51] <Phr3d13> i hate unity
[00:52] <abstrakt> dr_willis, i heard it sucks :)
[00:52] <Pici> !ot
[00:52] <hit0rid3> I haven't had problems with unity at all
[00:52] <hit0rid3> I don't see what the fuss is about
[00:52] <say_it_as_it_is> #join asa_utoronto
[00:52] <hit0rid3> it's pretty? right?
[00:52] <mehwork> wc
[00:53] <abstrakt> wols_, so, no other ideas?
[00:53] <abstrakt> i'm pretty much at a loss as well here
[00:53] <abstrakt> total mystery to me, why the system would mount the first time but not after reinstall
[00:55] <lwizardl> killall thunderbird says "thunderbird: no process found
[00:55] <lwizardl> "
[00:55] <adam_> hello
[00:55] <adam_> smbdy here ?
[00:56] <wols_> !ping
[00:56] <adam_> !ping
[00:56] <BlueMatt> hehe
[00:56] <tametest> is there a tool for me to check if my wireless network adapter for B560 work before I install Ubunut 11.04?
[00:56] <rww> yes, it's called a LiveCD
[00:57] <wols_> tametest: what chip does your b560 have?
[00:57] <fdajd_max2> LiveCD?
[00:57] <adam_> why the latest ubuntu release use the horrible purple colors ?
[00:57] <BlueMatt> because some people like them?
[00:57] <rww> adam_: because Canonical's design team had the audacity to disagree with you about the color scheme
[00:57] <usr13> tametest: What is your wifi adapter?
[00:57] <tametest> broadcom 802.11n
[00:57] <usr13> (make/model)
[00:57] <adam_> rww, yeah why didn't they ask me lol :)
[00:58] <usr13> ...model?
[00:58] <adam_> rww, you like these colors honestly ?
[00:58] <BlueMatt> anyone know why mountall would fail to daemonize after running, and just exit instead? (when called with --daemonize and after failing to mount one network drive)
[00:58] <rww> adam_: I worry about things more important than color schemes. Also, I use Kubuntu ;)
[00:58] <usr13> tametest: Some broadcom chips are a problem, others arent.
[00:59] <adam_> rww, not fair ... I bet everything on gnome
[00:59] <adam_> rww, i usually don't mind with apperance but when it is daily use it is annoying
[00:59] <usr13> I like KDE - diversity at it's best.
[00:59] <rww> so change it
[00:59] <ghostnik11> dr_willis: it seems the problem still ocurrs as the empathy window keeps expanding as i type when not maximised  but even when maximised it still expands and then goes to second line
[01:00] <adam_> rww, just joking away nevermind
[01:00] <ghostnik11> dr_willis: this time i actually logged in, into ubuntu (classic) with no unity
[01:00] <italoxp> adam_, I like the colors... But you can always change the theme (like I did)
[01:00] <usr13>  #ubuntu-offtopic rocks!
[01:01] <rww> usr13: lies
[01:02] <BlueMatt> usr13: is there anyone there who knows anything about fracking mountall???
[01:02] <rww> BlueMatt: probably, but they'll make jokes about horses or something if you ask them
[01:03] <BlueMatt> well in that case, let me just ask again here: anyone know why mountall would fail to daemonize after running, and just exit instead?
[01:03] <usr13> BlueMatt: You'll never know until you ask  ^_^
[01:04] <Jensit> Heyho
[01:04] <hit0rid3> hey
[01:04] <usr13> usr13 = fountain of truth
[01:04]  * BlueMatt thinks anyone who claims they are a fountain of truth is really just mentally insane
[01:04] <qin> !ot > usr13
[01:11] <simpleirc2> hi
[01:11] <hit0rid3> hello
[01:11] <italoxp> Guys, do you know when Linux 3 is going to be on the repositories?
[01:11] <hit0rid3> it seems this room is pretty dead
[01:12] <italoxp> Or it won't go to Natty's repos?
[01:12] <Jensit> i think in the next weeks. It was just released so they have to test it
[01:12] <zykotick9> italoxp, once a release is released, updates are only for security - no updates will take place
[01:13] <usr13> hit0rid3: It may just mean that Ubuntu is so good that there are not many issues to resolve at this time
[01:13] <rww> italoxp: It won't go to natty's repositories, as we don't upgrade to new major versions of packages after an Ubuntu release. It's already in oneiric's repositories.
[01:13] <hit0rid3> oh true
[01:13] <hit0rid3> we could always just talk about how linux is awesome
[01:14] <euphio> linux is awesome
[01:14] <usr13> hit0rid3: Let's face it, here is were they come with problems.
[01:14] <euphio> and stuff
[01:14] <hit0rid3> why does it always have to be a problem anyway :D
[01:14] <hit0rid3> yea...
[01:14] <Doktor_Zhivago> i don't have any problems
[01:14] <hit0rid3> I always just googled that crap
[01:14] <Doktor_Zhivago> atm
[01:14] <Doktor_Zhivago> >_>
[01:14] <hit0rid3> I have like 10 but I never ask questions in herefor fear of being labeled a newb
[01:15] <euphio> any ideas about why it would take so long just to bring up the home folder the first few times?
[01:15] <hit0rid3> which in fact I am
[01:15] <twenty2two> test
[01:15] <SinnerNyx> so how do i specify an smb share manually? I am using ubuntu-server
[01:15] <usr13> as qin states, "#ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel"
[01:15] <ben_q> hello, how can I use a custom command as default browser? the option is missing in System>Pref>Preferred Apps
[01:15] <hit0rid3> how better to support ubuntu than to glorify Linux!
[01:16] <italoxp> So, if I want the lattest packages, I have to use the next  release's respositories?
[01:16] <bobweaver> italoxp: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[01:16] <sunboy> Hi.
[01:16] <usr13> italoxp: Or, the next release...
[01:16] <hit0rid3> hello
[01:17] <sunboy> I'm trying to install the gspca driver with a patch for QuickCam E2500 but I'm getting a compile error
[01:17] <usr13> ben_q: I do not understand your question?
[01:17] <zykotick9> ben_q, you could try installing "galternatives" if it's an option in ubuntu
[01:17] <dr_willis> SinnerNyx:  you mean create a share? edit /etc/samba/smb.conf is normal way to define a share.
[01:18] <dsrfsg> hi,
[01:18] <dsrfsg> i have isntalled a VM ware of Ubuntu
[01:18] <dsrfsg> but it cant detect any USB
[01:18] <bobweaver> italoxp: down load theh three files mkdir in downloads file called linux then put the three files in there then cd into that folder and then do a sudo dpkg -i linux*  then a sudo update-grub  reboot and test the kernel
[01:18] <dsrfsg> any utilities i need to isntall?
[01:18] <dr_willis> !vmware
[01:19] <dr_willis> dsrfsg:  using vmware on windows.. with ubuntu as the guest os in vmware correct?
[01:19] <dsrfsg> oops. i think is vm virtual box
[01:19] <dsrfsg> sorry for the confusion
[01:19] <dsrfsg> i have a hard disk connected to my pc, but it doesnt get detected in VM virtual box ubuntu
[01:19] <dr_willis> dsrfsg:  Then you need to configfure vbox to enable the usb devices you want the guest os to allow. You prob. want to install the guest addations also.
[01:19] <italoxp> bobweaver, I didn't say that I want the new kernel. I asked if it was going to be on natty. I didn't know that, after the release, only bugfixes are released
[01:20] <italoxp> But what about Firefox?
[01:20] <dsrfsg> dr_willis: where shoudl i configure the vbox to enable the  usb devices?
[01:20] <dr_willis> dsrfsg:  vbox normally has to be configfured to allow access to usb devices from within the virtual guest od.
[01:20] <maum> I have to put this in the terminal "sudo alsa force-reload" whenever I reboot my desktop
[01:20] <dr_willis> dsrfsg:  its in its settings and menus.. You may want to check the vbox docs.
[01:21] <ghostnik11>  dr_willis: went over to empathy room on gimp irc and the problem occurs b/c the window with user name should be expanded till you don't see ... by each name and then when you type after expanding the user name section the problem doesn't occur thanks for help
[01:21] <jhouse5266534> which room do I go into for help with 11.10?
[01:22] <sunboy> Anyone know anything about installing drivers for webcams?
[01:22] <zykotick9> jhouse5266534, #ubuntu+1
[01:22] <bobweaver> italoxp: what about firefox 5? 6beta installing ?
[01:22] <nit-wit> jhouse5266534, #ubuntu+1
[01:23] <ra21vi_> anyone had luck installing ubuntu on ddell xps 15z
[01:23] <maum> Who can help me about sound problem?
[01:23] <italoxp> bobweaver, no, they said that only bugfixes are released in the release. What about Firefox 5? It's a major update, just like linux 3
[01:23] <rww> italoxp: Firefox has an exception to Ubuntu's policy on new major versions. New major versions of Firefox are added to the security repositories every so often.
[01:23] <zykotick9> rww, i didn't know that.  Interesting...
[01:23] <bobweaver> well said rww
[01:23] <usr13> !sound | maum
[01:24] <bobweaver> you can or have to add there repo for 5
[01:24] <bobweaver> that must be why ?
[01:24] <maum> ubottu, I have to put this in the terminal "sudo alsa force-reload" whenever I reboot my desktop
[01:24] <maum> usr13: I have to put this in the terminal "sudo alsa force-reload" whenever I reboot my desktop
[01:24] <maum> usr13: in order to listen sound.
[01:25] <italoxp> rww, I don't understand why firefox and why not the kernel, that should be an important part of the system
[01:25] <dr_willis> maum:  if you need that command at every boot up you can puit it in /etc/rc.local
[01:25] <usr13> maum: You could add it to /etc/rc.local
[01:25] <italoxp> ubottu, update to 11.10
[01:25] <dr_willis> maum:  im assuming thats your actual question..... :)
[01:25] <maum> usr13, how can I add?
[01:25] <rww> italoxp: because the security update policies of the kernel upstream are sane, and Mozilla's are not.
[01:25] <bobweaver> italoxp: I have tested it there is some nice stuff but the nivida and othere major things are buggy still
[01:25] <usr13> maum: But what is your sound card?
[01:25] <dr_willis> maum:  its a text file.. edit it as root. put command befor the last exit line
[01:26] <italoxp> bobweaver, rww, got it. Thank you
[01:26] <usr13> maum: cat >> /etc/rc.local  #Hit enter, type it in, Ctrl-d
[01:26] <maum> usr13, Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 05)
[01:26] <usr13> maum: sudo
[01:27] <dr_willis> the command has to be befor the 'exit 0' line in rc.local
[01:28] <hit0rid3> you could rc.local with gedit ect?
[01:28] <usr13> maum:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1395500
[01:28] <dr_willis> you can edit it however you want. but since rc.local is a system file. .you need root rights.
[01:29] <usr13> dr_willis: Oh yea.  Or you could just delete the exit 0 line
[01:30] <dr_willis> if rc.local dosent return a 0 - it may trigger some error messages on the consoles at boot up.
[01:30] <maum> usr13, there is no obvious solution but I inputed the command into rc.local.
[01:31] <maum> usr13, I think
[01:31] <dr_willis> maum:  rc.local is ran at bootup as one of the last things started. its a place for misc scripts/commands and fix's
[01:31] <maum> dr_willis, I have just pasted the command "sudo alsa force-reload"
[01:32] <italoxp> maum, I guess the sudo is not needed
[01:32] <dr_willis> maum:  so put that command in /etc/rc.local befor the exit 0 line.. and it will get ran once at bootup.
[01:32] <dr_willis> sudo would not be needed in rc.local
[01:32] <maum> dr_willis, ok
[01:34] <maum> dr_willis, but when I run this command, I can hear only in specific sound player(Audacious) except for other sound application
[01:34] <dr_willis> I have no idea on the actual sound problem. I rarely have had to trouble shoot sound issues.
[01:34] <maum> dr_willis, I don't know why and VLC automatically deleted and I cannot see volume applet in tray.
[01:35] <maum> dr_willis, although I run the command.
[01:35] <dr_willis> most apps should be using pulse audio and not alsa directrly.   vlc has a setting to use alsa, or pulse.  as for the tray.  could be it got removed or crashed.
[01:36] <zykotick9> maum, did you remove pulseaudio from your system?
[01:36] <maum> zykotick9, no but I updated..
[01:36] <dr_willis> updated what exactly?
[01:37] <maum> dr_willis, I reinstalled purge. and extra stream library.
[01:37] <dr_willis> i think we are missing a lot of the details here.
[01:38] <maum> dr_willis, ok but I have no idea where is this problem from. and I reinstalled it after the problem had occured.
[01:40] <Hit0rid3> hello again
[01:40] <maum> hello
[01:40] <BlueMatt> anyone know why mountall would fail to daemonize after running, and just exit instead? (when called with --daemonize and after failing to mount one network drive)
[01:40] <Hit0rid3> figure that sound card thing out?
[01:40] <maum> Hit0rid3, yes.
[01:40] <Hit0rid3> nicely done
[01:41] <maum> Hit0rid3, the device displayed when I put the command.
[01:41] <Hit0rid3> did you figure out what was wrong before or did you just write that command in?
[01:42] <dr_willis> bbl - work time for me.
[01:42] <maum> Hit0rid3, I couldn't hear any sound on my PC so I have to put the command in the terminal(alsa force-reload)
[01:43] <maum> dr_willis, ok thanks for help
[01:43] <Hit0rid3> goodbye!
[01:43] <user01> who's going to linux con north america vancouver?

[01:48] <italoxp> mpd
[01:49] <Troy^> is openoffice not better then libreoffice
[01:49] <rww> Troy^: no, it isn't
[01:49] <KM0201> Troy^: 6 on one hand, half dozen on the other... Libre might be a TAD faster, in my experience, but.. it's not enough to get in a tizzy about
[01:49] <qin> ihsw: mplayer?
[01:50] <Troy^> alright thanks be right back, i cant stand unity
[01:50] <Troy^> fresh ubuntu install :S
[01:50] <BlueMatt> anyone know why mountall would fail to daemonize after running, and just exit instead? (when called with --daemonize and after failing to mount one network drive)

[01:57] <zykotick9> !anyone | q0_0p
[01:57] <ghostnik11> italoxp: yeah i checked glib2 and all of them in synaptic were highlighted for being on my system
[01:57] <josh_> cool ubottu thanks
[01:57] <dsrfsg> but th0r : the virtualbox extension i dint know how to attach to the VM
[01:57] <dsrfsg> i installed virtualbox extension on Windows (non virtual box)
[01:57] <Derpadong> Anyone know of an audio player that can show the song in an OSD style but without coverart?
[01:58] <q0_0p> deleted a vid i was working on in kdenlive, my question is, if i reupload the original vid will my changes made on kdenlive still be on kdenlive?
[01:58] <ghostnik11> italoxp: do i need a certain file for this problem to go away?
[01:58] <th0r> dsrfsg: I don't thnk you need to attach them...just install them one time in virtual box and they are applied automatically
[01:58] <q0_0p> will it**
[01:58] <josh_> well what the heck
[01:58] <italoxp> ghostnik11, Ubuntu doesn't have installed by default the tools necessary to compile from source
[01:58] <dsrfsg> th0r: you mean installed in Linux (vm os)?
[01:58] <italoxp> ghostnik11, I'm trying to find the package needed
[01:59] <ctv> hi to all!!!
[01:59] <adam_> hi
[01:59] <ghostnik11> italoxp: oh, thanks for telling me, didn't know that
[01:59] <Bfh> Hello wondering if some1 can lead me to software to accomplish this: pretty much would like for the foreground applications to blend into the desktop backgrounds so in essense all you see is text and faded border of the foreground applications.
[01:59] <th0r> dsrfsg: once you run virtualbox it registers as the handler for the extensions. Then you just need to right click on the extension pack and open it with virtualbox
[02:00] <dsrfsg> i run on viretual box,
[02:00] <dsrfsg> but it doesnt register the handlers
[02:00] <ctv> i have create a .sh script but start only the first line, <script>#!/bin/sh
[02:00] <ctv> dvswitch -h 127.0.0.1 -p 8080
[02:00] <ctv> dvsource-dvgrab -h 127.0.0.1 -p 8080 --firewire
[02:00] <ctv> dvsink-files -h 127.0.0.1 -p 8080 festaradio</script> can someone help me?
[02:00] <FloodBot1> ctv: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:00] <Freddy> hi im new at ubuntu and have small problem, can anyone help me? sry for my bad english
[02:00] <q0_0p> ?
[02:01] <quidnunc> Does ubuntu do fsck by default on boot?
[02:01] <ihsw> running ubuntu server on an intel atom mobo, apparently there's no audio in /dev
[02:02] <zykotick9> quidnunc, every 28 (or whatever) times, or when needed
[02:02] <quidnunc> zykotick9: With btrfs fsck is running every time
[02:02] <quidnunc> zykotick9: Does it get re-run if fsck fails?
[02:02] <zykotick9> quidnunc, with btrfs i have no idea.  good luck.
[02:02] <quidnunc> (at next boot?)
[02:02] <nit-wit> quidnunc, have you not let it finish?
[02:03] <qin> ctv: Why html tags?
[02:03] <q0_0p> will kdenlive still remember changes i made if i deleted the video and reupload it again?
[02:03] <ihsw> anybody have any idea why there wouldn't be any audio in /dev?
[02:03] <quidnunc> nit-wit: No it finishes. Some non-critical error I have not taken the time to understand
[02:04] <zykotick9> ctv, does the first command "dvswitch -h 127.0.0.1 -p 8080" finish?  or does it stay running?
[02:05] <zykotick9> q0_0p, there appears to be a #kdenlive channel (not too many people though)
[02:06] <joshlegs> so i just downloaded some updates on my desktop. now i cant get an internet signal. but i get it on my laptop fine. my desktop is hardwired to the router. What might be wrong ??
[02:06] <joshlegs> im getting a DNS fail message in chrome
[02:06] <Troy^> do you guys use chrome or firefox
[02:06] <Corey> Yes.
[02:06] <rww> Troy^: #ubuntu doesn't do polls. Feel free to ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots what the best browser is.
[02:07] <italoxp> Troy^, I use both
[02:07] <Troy^> alright well i was just curious on what peoples opinion were
[02:07] <italoxp> Troy^, actually, I use Chrome, Firefox and Midori at the same time
[02:07] <jmusbach> I use netscape
[02:08] <leidy> hy, i have a problem to gnome acer 4743z
[02:08] <leidy> no staart
[02:08] <nit-wit> Troy^, you might try #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:09] <rww> Troy^: and the bot I mentioned aggregates peoples' opinions ;)
[02:09] <joshlegs> so i updated my ubuntu eralier today, and now i cant connect to the internet. Chrome gives me a DNS fail message. what should i do to get connectivity? my box is hardwired to a router and its working (im also straming netflix right now)
[02:10] <socrates_johnson> i'm using 11.04 and after my display doesn't work using the latest kernels (the display works correctly with the previous two kernels still)...is there an straightforward fix? sorry i'm not good at this sort of thing...thank you

[02:11] <arthurscience> is there anything for ubuntu that maps gamepad buttons to keys?
[02:12] <hellonew> has anyone successfully installed Para-virtualizaitoned ubuntu 10.04 on Xen??
[02:13] <zykotick9> arthurscience, joy2key or similar name.
[02:13] <hellonew> When I install PV 10.04, it hangs to "ALERT! /dev/sda1 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!" everytime...
[02:13] <hellonew> Need some help really
[02:14] <zykotick9> hellonew, PV?
[02:14] <Omsniffiscent> Could someone just skim over this error quickly and tell me if something in here sticks out as fatal? http://pastebin.com/pEvdu8RT
[02:14] <zykotick9> hellonew, para-virt - sorry
[02:15] <Omsniffiscent> I've been running Spotify through wine just fine and suddenly it's broken now.
[02:15] <zykotick9> hellonew, you might want to try the #ubuntu-server channel IF you don't get an answer here
[02:16] <hellonew> Is there anyone working on Xen??
[02:16] <Omsniffiscent> fixme is okay, right? It's err that's bad?
[02:17] <hellonew> Thanks zykotic9.
[02:18] <italoxp> ghostnik11, are you there?
[02:19] <ghostnik11> italoxp: yep
[02:19] <knksmith57> Hey team, I've got a pretty bad issue with my package managers, couldn't find anything in the forums
[02:19] <italoxp> ghostnik11, did you make it work?
[02:19] <italoxp> ghostnik11, the compiling issue you had
[02:19] <[TK]D-Fender> hello all.  Running 11.04 x64 and having Flash player freezes in Chromium & Firefox pretty much equally.  Firefox used to survive a little longer but now both cap out at about 1 minute of playback and then simply stops dead.  what is the current best solution for this?
[02:19] <ghostnik11> italoxp: i actually am trying to upgrade it via ppa:telepathy/ppa
[02:20] <mysphyt> Hey, folks.  What's the best-practices way to configure grub on Natty?  Last time I mucked with grub it was just a matter of editing menu.lst/grub.cfg, but now Ubuntu is doing all sorts of automagic voodoo, some of which I like, and some of which I don't.  How should I go about making changes?
[02:20] <italoxp> ghostnik11, well, if want, I can help with compiling
[02:20] <italoxp> ghostnik11, I found out which packages are needed to compiling
[02:20] <mgj> [TK]D-Fender, are you using gnash? Or adobe flash?
[02:21] <werever> hi!, anybody available?, I just lost trying to fix my login screen, I using ubuntu 11.04, gnome 3, and I have following error: "mountall: disconnected plymouth"
[02:21] <ghostnik11> italoxp: problem comes in with gnome3 stuff that are dependent on gnome 3 so for me to get empathy 3.0.2 or newer i have use gnome 3 b/c its a dependent but what did you find?
[02:21] <[TK]D-Fender> mgj: FAIK adobe
[02:21] <werever> I tried some fixes from ubuntu forums, and I am getting lost
[02:21] <abstrakt> how do you share permissions between windows and ubuntu with a virtual machine?
[02:21] <endip> How can I check to see what version of glibc I have?
[02:22] <werever> my next step is unsinstall all nvidia drivers, any body can help me with that ?
[02:22] <itaylor57> [TK]D-Fender, I use the flash 64 bit ppa
[02:22] <abstrakt> when i mount this shared folder from my windows host in my ubuntu virtual machine, all the permissions are all 777 and I can't change them
[02:22] <werever> please
[02:22] <werever> =)
[02:22] <[TK]D-Fender> mgj: Indeed no gnash, just Adobe Flash Player 1http://watch.thecomedynetwork.ca/#clip506157
[02:22] <mgj> [TK]D-Fender, beats me then. Gnash is the open alternative, but its not quite there yet.
[02:22] <[TK]D-Fender> 10.3.181.34ubuntu0.11.04.1 (flashplugin-installer)
[02:22] <[TK]D-Fender> darn paste buffer fail
[02:22] <mgj> thought that if you were using gnash, you could try adobe
[02:23] <Pasqoo> Hi, any C programmer here?
[02:23] <mgj> unfortunately it seems like you just have to wait a few years for flash to become obsolete. Will happen soon enough
[02:23] <[TK]D-Fender> mgj: That's Apple's Kool-Aid :p
[02:23] <[TK]D-Fender> mgj: And I ain't drinking it :p
[02:23] <mgj> dont care
[02:23] <zykotick9> [TK]D-Fender, have you tried removing/reinstalling flashplugin-installer since Flash 11 has come out?  On Debian (not sure about Ubuntu), the non-free script installs 11 on 64bit machines by default
[02:23] <mgj> it doesnt work, never did
[02:23] <mgj> and now we have better alternatives to it
[02:24] <mgj> so it will die
[02:24] <mgj> finally
[02:24] <FloodBot1> mgj: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:24] <endip> D-Fedner :: Apple's cool aid, or common sense?
[02:24] <[TK]D-Fender> Actually is used to work.... just recently... was a shaky start to 11.04 but previous releases worked fine...
[02:24] <endip> How can I check to see what version of glibc I have?
[02:24] <zykotick9> [TK]D-Fender, and that's a 64bit native Flash!  Again, not sure about Ubuntu.
[02:24] <mgj> Flash has never worked, on any platform
[02:24] <mgj> not really
[02:24] <stolzus> endip: in synapthic
[02:25] <[TK]D-Fender> mgj: Sure I've had minor issues on other platforms, but that's once in a blue moon material.  This is jsut DOA
[02:25] <endip> stolzus :: I don't get any results from a search on glibc in synaptic. (The closest I get is glibc-doc)
[02:25] <mgj> [TK]D-Fender, people have different defitions of "it works". For me, flash never worked. Ever. Windows, linux, 1995 or 2011, never worked
[02:25] <[TK]D-Fender> zykotick9: I will certainly give that a shot right now...
[02:26] <zykotick9> endip, LOL - i was trying with "apt-cache search glibc" and only got the docs as well.
[02:26] <mgj> Its slow, full of bugs and design flaws..... *shrug*
[02:26] <endip> mgj :: Flash barely works regardless of what operating system you're running. It's a pile of ... garbage.
[02:26] <zykotick9> endip, libglibc gives some other options though
[02:26] <mgj> yey, a fellow flash hater \o/
[02:26] <werever> Hi, I need to uninstallall nvidia drivers, I know nvidia package version i have, and I can login as root on command line, GUI is not running properly
[02:26] <werever> please help =P
[02:27] <zykotick9> werever, "sudo apt-get remove NVIDIA_PACKAGENAME_HERE" should work
[02:27] <endip> zykotick9, I'm not getting any results from libglibc either.
[02:27] <werever> thanks zykotick9..I trying now
[02:27] <zykotick9> endip, sorry just "libglib"
[02:28] <endip> zykotick9, thanks
[02:28] <ixxixxi> can I start programming Python out of the box in ubuntu?
[02:28] <ixxixxi> or do i need to install any special libraries etc
[02:28] <mgj> i believe ubuntu comes with python, yes
[02:28] <mgj> but might be a fairly old release
[02:29] <socrates_johnson> has anyone else had problems with ati drivers in 11.04 recently?
[02:29] <knksmith57> how do I completely reinstall aptitude/apt-get and dependencies
[02:30] <endip> Anyone running Blender 2.5x in Ubuntu 11.04 without issues? Is it stable? I would just install the version in the repo (2.49), but 2.5x is supposed to be quite different...
[02:30] <mgj> socrates_johnson, everyone has problems with ati drivers
[02:30] <linkio> hi ! just learning
[02:31] <knksmith57> @socrates_johnson I'm running x64 11.04 with an ATI 5450, issue free
[02:31] <mgj> ati in linux? issue free?
[02:31] <mgj> i dont believe you!
[02:31] <knksmith57> alright... maybe not issue --free--
[02:31] <socrates_johnson> it was working fine until the last kernel update
[02:31] <mgj> hah! =)
[02:31] <socrates_johnson> now the display doesn't work
[02:31] <werever> is there any way to start in classic mode in ubuntu 11 in command line, If I type "startx" I get gnome GUI, but it have problems
[02:31] <werever> ?
[02:32] <knksmith57> @socrates_johnson if I was better at IRC I might be able to help you debug, no Idea how to move this convo to a private room tho
[02:32] <zykotick9> werever, same problem as if you used GDM?
[02:32] <itaylor57> werever, you have to enter classic from the login screen
[02:33] <zykotick9> knksmith57, to start private chat use "/msg NICKNAME start of message" but ask permission first.
[02:33] <mysphyt> werever: If you're having problems running X, and you're sure that they're related to the nvidia driver, one solution while you sort things out might be to use the open source 'nv' driver rather than the 'nvidia' binary driver from NVIDIA.  It's not as fancy, but it's gotten the job done for me at least to get things running again.
[02:33] <knksmith57> ah, alright. thanks
[02:33] <socrates_johnson> knksmith57: thank you, that would be great if you have a minute
[02:34] <werever> mysphyt soundfs good for me at this moment, how can I use nv drivers instead nvidia drivers?
[02:34] <joshlegs> can somebody tell me why my hardwired desktop wont recognize the router after my security updates today ????
[02:35] <zykotick9> joshlegs, what do you mean by "recognize"?  Hey, is that you Linksys, you don't look the same.  Have you lost weight?
[02:36] <joshlegs> zykotick9, i mean, it doesnt pull anything in ifconfig for it i dont believe
[02:36] <werever> removing NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.30-pkg1.run package say package not found, dfo you know how to check what package I have using? (i am in command line)
[02:36] <zykotick9> joshlegs, from terminal what does "sudo dhclient eth0" give as output?
[02:36] <zykotick9> werever, if you using Nvidia's installer you can't use apt to remove it!
[02:37] <joshlegs> it says "DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 on port 67 interval (random numbers)
[02:37] <zykotick9> s/using/used/
[02:37] <mysphyt> werever: in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf should include a line that says Driver "nvidia" .  Just change that "nvidia" to "nv" and try startx again.
[02:37] <werever> thanks mysphyt
[02:37] <werever> i tryng now
[02:38] <joshlegs> zykotick9, it says "no DHCPOFFERS received No working leases in persistent database - sleeping"
[02:38] <mysphyt> Also, ignore the spurious "in" in the above sentence.
[02:38] <zykotick9> werever, an even better idea would be to move xorg.conf temporarily "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.disabled"
[02:38] <werever> I deleted
[02:38] <zykotick9> joshlegs, "ping 192.168.1.1" assuming that's your router address
[02:39] <joshlegs> zykotick9, i pinged .2.1 and it didnt get anything (i think thats my router address). ill try the .1.1
[02:39] <dli> joshlegs, if you don't get IP, you can not ping
[02:39] <joshlegs> yeah its saying destination host unreachable
[02:39] <zykotick9> dli, LOL - good point!
[02:40] <joshlegs> i think its a configuration somewhere that got goofed with the updates.
[02:40] <joshlegs> im on my wireless laptop now connected to the router (wirelessly). just the desktop cant connect (its hardwired)
[02:40] <zykotick9> joshlegs, <IT Crowd Voice> is it plugged in?
[02:40] <mysphyt> joshlegs: At the risk of asking the obvious question, have you checked the network cable?
[02:40] <joshlegs> zykotick9, i dont know what that is
[02:41] <joshlegs> and mysphyt yeah i checked it.
[02:41] <joshlegs> ill check again though =\
[02:41] <dli> joshlegs, if your NIC/router's port has signal lights, try to verify the connection is fine
[02:41] <joshlegs> yeah its connected. and i want to say i saw it flashing earlier
[02:41] <mysphyt> joshlegs: Not just whether it's plugged in, whether the cable is good--I've had these problems happen both because cables have gotten damaged and because ports on the router itself have died.  Make sure the physical components aren't the problem.
[02:42] <joshlegs> oh mysphyt  .... let me try another cable then ....
[02:42] <italoxp> ghostnik11, sorry for leaving
[02:42] <dli> joshlegs, do you see change in lights, if you disconnection/reconnect
[02:43] <qin> zykotick9: <My wasted sense of humour> lol
[02:43] <zykotick9> qin, :)
[02:43] <mysphyt> Hmm.  Is there any reason not to change the order of the scripts in /etc/grub.d?  I'd really like my alternative OSs to be listed before linux.
[02:43] <mysphyt> (Not because I don't love ubuntu, of course.)
[02:44] <joshlegs> mysphyt, another cable didnt help
[02:44] <knksmith57> anyone have a method of reinstalling apt-get and aptitude. somehow mine are toast
[02:44] <joshlegs> dli i dont see nic card light, just the light at the end of the cable (in the see through portion of the connector, the clear plastic) that lights up
[02:45] <dli> joshlegs, if you connect/disconnect, any change in flashing/lights?
[02:46] <joshlegs> dli no. i only have one light on my router, and it stays green. no lights flashing on the back of my box
[02:46] <zykotick9> mysphyt, it's possible, you need to create a custom entry in /etc/grub.d though - non-trivial but worth the effort.  My very customized Grub https://plus.google.com/115403891429547707849/posts/dPn4sDR5z7i
[02:46] <dimas_> ones i retrieve an email in evolution it can be retrive in another location even i dont keep a copy in the server?
[02:46] <Guest69360> test
[02:46] <dli> joshlegs, unplug the cable, what do you see?
[02:46] <zykotick9> Guest69360, fail ;)
[02:47] <Guest69360> lol, do i need to auth?
[02:47] <Guest69360> been awhile since i've used IRC and i'm new to ubuntu
[02:47] <zykotick9> Guest69360, you don't need to register to use this channel
[02:47] <Guest69360> nick JZ
[02:47] <Guest69360> how do i change my nick?
[02:48] <joshlegs> dli, i unplug it, then plug it back in. always after replugging it, the green light (actually right NEXT to the ethernet cable on the back of my tower) flashes for a second
[02:48] <joshlegs> then it does nothing
[02:48] <Guest69360> i'll read the IRC info...
[02:49] <dli> joshlegs, so, you can not figure out whether cable is plugged in based on the lights only :(
[02:49] <joshlegs> guest 69369 type /nick (your new nickname)
[02:49] <joshlegs> dli was that a question?
[02:49] <qin> Guest69360: /msg nickserv help , /nick qin_is_awesome
[02:50] <mysphyt> zykotick9: Heh, I took the easier route (though it might mess me up later).  cp 10_linux 15_linux; cp 30_os-prober 10_os-prober, chmod -x 10_linux 30_os-prober .
[02:50] <zykotick9> mysphyt, i chmod -x 10 & 30 as well
[02:50] <mysphyt> zykotick9: I don't need anything quite s'fancy as yours.  I just want OSX to show up above linux, 'cause I'm finicky.
[02:51] <dli> joshlegs, if you can not, it might be a cable/socket problem, not software/configure
[02:51] <joshlegs> oh ok. how can i figure out whether the cable is connected just through the lights?
[02:51] <Guest69360> do i need to register to save a nick?
[02:51] <joshlegs> if the lights dont come on when the cable is disconnected, thats it?
[02:52] <joshlegs> Guest69360, i think so
[02:52] <qin> !register | Guest69360
[02:52] <zykotick9> Guest69360, i'd imagine.  But IRC questions might be better answered for you in #freenode
[02:52] <dli> joshlegs, so, you can be sure the cable connection is fine, right?
[02:52] <Guest69360> sorry, i'm actually reading the irc help, i'll figure it out
[02:52] <mysphyt> joshlegs: Rather, if there are no lights when the cable is connected, probably there's a physical problem.
[02:52] <Guest69360> i do need some help with my audio setup but I'll get this figured out first
[02:53] <joshlegs> dli yeah the cable is fine.
[02:53] <joshlegs> sometimes theres no lights when the cable IS connected. it just flashes occasionally, like when its doing something ..
[02:53] <joshlegs> im going to restart it again .... brb
[02:54] <dli> joshlegs, now, verify linux sees the connection, if your NIC is eth0: sudo ip link show eth0
[02:54] <Infernet> hey all
[02:54] <TuxOtaku> hey I'm having some trouble with inkscape...I just installed a new font and it said font not found on system
[02:55] <Lasers> TuxOtaku: Restart Inkscape?
[02:55] <TuxOtaku> Lasers, tried that
[02:55] <mysphyt> Arright, folks.  I'm out for a bit.  Thanks for the help.
[02:55] <TuxOtaku> also did fc-cache -f -v
[02:55] <Lasers> TuxOtaku: It's in ~/.fonts?
[02:56] <TuxOtaku> Lasers, it/s in /usr/share/fonts
[02:56] <Lasers> TuxOtaku: Hmm. I give up.  (Going to watch a movie!)  -__-
[02:56] <JZApples> ok i'm registered, sorry about that
[02:56] <Lasers> TuxOtaku: Try putting it in ~/.fonts (and font cache) Then Inkscape.
[02:57] <JZApples> is there someone in here that could maybe help me figure out my sound issues
[02:57] <zykotick9> !ask | JZApples
[02:57] <joshlegs> ok im back. the router restart did not help
[02:58] <dli> joshlegs, try static IP, since you know the subnet
[02:58] <joshlegs> how i do that dli
[02:58] <dli> joshlegs, include the MAC in router's static IP list
[02:59] <dli> joshlegs, most router DHCP supports static IP for known MACs
[02:59] <JZApples> zykotick9, I was hoping for a pm, pretty new to linux
[02:59] <joshlegs> dli i dont know how to set all that
[02:59] <dli> joshlegs, for example, if your router IP is 192.168.2.1/24, set your local IP 192.168.2.31/24
[03:00] <zykotick9> !here | JZApples
[03:01] <zykotick9> JZApples, sorry i should have used !pm - but the general idea is using the #ubuntu channel everyone benefits, and you won't get bad advice (peer review in place)
[03:01] <JZApples> agreed, sorry i'll try to explain it as best i can.
[03:01] <MGL> hello
[03:02] <peng_> hello.
[03:02] <dli> joshlegs, you can use /etc/network/interfaces to set static IPs
[03:03] <joshlegs> i think somebody else tried having me do that and i dont think it worked. but dont remember well
[03:03] <zykotick9> joshlegs, if you use Network Manager it's much easier to setup a static IP there then the interfaces file
[03:03] <MGL> how can i look for programs of a certain category (p2p o DVD burners for instance)
[03:03] <Valrin> That was scary
[03:05] <MGL> is there a way to do that?
[03:05] <ihsw> MGL: ubuntu has a built in package manager with a search function
[03:06] <rxt0> hi there guys, what does the ubuntu patchset for the linux kernel does? or what's its purpose?
[03:07] <endip> Anyone running Blender 2.5x in Ubuntu 11.04 without issues? Is it stable? I would just install the version in the repo (2.49), but 2.5x is supposed to be quite different...
[03:07] <MGL> yes but sometimes the versio is old
[03:08] <MGL> endip, and a few programs may no be there (I couldn find a program similar to emule)
[03:09] <Darksmurf> I'm trying to create an 11.04 LiveUSB with persistance and I'm having some problems. I seem to remember a tool that used to be included in Ubuntu that would do exactly this, but I can't find it. I've tried using the Startup Disk Creator, but that just creates an Install USB disk. Google results seem to indicate this tool is the correct tool, and one tutorial specificly states that this tool can be used to create a bootable s
[03:09] <Darksmurf> tick that can run AND install.. but I see no 'run' or 'live' option on the grub menu.
[03:09] <endip> MGL :: Blender is in the repo, but it's not the newest version. I'm just wondering if anyone else is running blender 2.5x without issues in 11.04
[03:10] <Darksmurf> I'm using an 11.04 install ISO as my source. Any suggestiongs?
[03:10] <Darksmurf> suggestions*
[03:10] <escii> unetbootin - installer of Linux/BSD distributions to a partition or USB drive
[03:11] <tohui> hola
[03:11] <leidy> hola
[03:11] <Darksmurf> escii, I've tried unetbootin and ended up with a non-bootable stick, but that was on windows. Maybe I should try running it under Ubuntu...
[03:11] <zykotick9> Darksmurf, rather then Live+persistance, have you considered just installing onto the USB?
[03:11] <tohui> how is everything
[03:12] <tohui> jus learnning
[03:13] <tohui> need help
[03:13] <escii> Darksmurf, give it a try ;)
[03:13] <Darksmurf> zykotick9, that would actually be prefered, and I would love to do that with a plain Debian install,  but the system I'm using this on has no optical drive, and I don't have any other USB sticks large enough to create a second install stick.
[03:13] <tohui> any body there?
[03:13] <DmstrDJ> I have had issues when using the persistence as well
[03:13] <tohui>  i am new in linux
[03:14] <Darksmurf> hmm. maybe I should just bite the bullet and move an optical drive into one of my USB HDD enclosures and be done with it....
[03:14] <tohui> just 1 2 learn for the people
[03:14] <tohui> and help
[03:14] <escii> just ask...
[03:14] <Darksmurf> tohui, ask your question, if someone can answer, they will :-)
[03:14] <tohui> tks
[03:15] <tohui> tks escii
[03:15] <Lee_> hello
[03:16] <tohui> the world is getting very unfair
[03:16] <Darksmurf> Thanks everyone. I'll see if I can't make a USB optical drive work and just install to USB. zykotick9 anyhthing special I need to do during the install or just treat it like an HD?
[03:16] <tohui> tks u
[03:16] <zykotick9> Darksmurf, YES, with Ubuntu it will try to install Grub to the HD instead of the USB - you need to select "advanced" and change that.
[03:17] <Lee_> what topic?
[03:17] <tohui> "THE MIRROR"...HAS BEEN ALWAYS THE MIRROR
[03:17] <tohui>  When you look at the Mirror..What do you see?
[03:17] <Darksmurf> k, not a prob, this system doesn't actually have an HD - SSD died
[03:17] <tohui>   Do you see the real World?..Do you see the real you? or what you have been  conditioned to believe is y
[03:17] <Lee_> I can see myself...
[03:18] <tohui> The two are so different.
[03:18] <escii> did he copy that phrase?
[03:18] <Pici> !offtopic
[03:18] <Darksmurf> tohui, how philosophical do you want to get?
[03:18] <escii> oh, dear..
[03:18] <JZApples> 5 days ago I did a fresh install of Ubuntu.  For the past few days my audio has been working one minute and then the next it doesn't.  I've tried the things explained here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting  i am using a Creative  X-Fi Titanium with a Turtle Beach Earforce 5.1 Surround Sound Headset and a Kenwood 5.1 surround sound hooked up to the digital out.  The Hardware tab of my Sound Preferences is
[03:18] <JZApples>  currently set to the Digital Stereo Duplex (IEC958).
[03:18] <Darksmurf> tohui, ah, THAT philosophical....
[03:18] <tohui> One is an infinite consciousness capable of being and creating whatever it chooses
[03:18] <tohui> the other is just an illusion impresioned by its own reflection,

[03:19] <tohui> a reflection of what you belief is your reality
[03:19] <islamismailov> how do i set port number on xchat on ubuntu?
[03:19] <tohui>  a reality that has build up base on your beliefs and and reinforced by you own personal interpretation of what is REAL.
[03:19] <islamismailov> is anyone using xhcat here?
[03:19] <DmstrDJ> islamismailov,  yes
[03:20] <escii> sure..
[03:20] <zykotick9> islamismailov, XChat / Server List / the port number is at end of server name in top white box

[03:22] <zykotick9> werever, you installed with the .bin from nvidia right?
[03:22] <bakslash_7> help editing xorg.conf ?

[03:28] <islamismailov> zykotick9, I don't really know how to keep it in channel, and address it to you, but your advice worked for me!
[03:28] <zykotick9> islamismailov, it was your PM to me that I took issue with
[03:28] <JZApples> this is why i prefer pm, it's not an easy thing to troubleshoot so i get no response
[03:29] <Darksmurf> islamismailov, by putting his name in the message his IRC client will highlight it, or make a sound, etc so zykotick9 is more likley to see your comment.

[03:39] <werever> last line i typed 11
[03:39] <werever> sorry
[03:40] <werever> [rww] last line i typed 11 sorry, correct is ii
[03:40] <zykotick9> werever, i have no idea how to remove Nvidia's .bin install i'm afraid.  rww?
[03:40] <qin> SinnerNyx: find . -type d -exec chmod XXX {} \;
[03:40] <rww> I don't touch nvidia with a ten-metre pole, so...
[03:40] <zykotick9> rww, lol - sorry i forgot!
[03:41] <qin> SinnerNyx: Or for files: find . -type d -exec chmod XXX {} \;
[03:41] <Rei`ZzZz> Are you trying to remove nvidia binary?
[03:41] <qin> SinnerNyx: Or for files: find . -type f -exec chmod XXX {} \; (Sorry)
[03:41] <werever> [zykotick9] rww no prob, I trying to fix problems that I dont understand, let me explain the begin of my problems hehehe
[03:42] <j__> need help logging into internet in kde   in gnome all i do is type the stuff of of the router but in kde it askes for stuff i dont know
[03:42] <zykotick9> werever, why do you insist on putting my nic in square brackets?  I'm done with you.  Best of luck.
[03:42] <werever> sorry my irc client is doing this
[03:42] <werever> what is the problem with that?
[03:43] <qin> SinnerNyx: Be rather carefull with find since it is recrusive, try with -exec echo first.
[03:43] <tohui> i want to learn linux:  any sugestions?
[03:43] <Rei`ZzZz> werever: What's the problem?
[03:44] <tohui> lulzsec
[03:44] <qin> tohui: man man (in terminal)
[03:44] <xangua> !ot | tohui
[03:44] <xangua> ready and study a lot
[03:44] <tohui> how i do tahat ?
[03:44] <Rei`ZzZz> tohui: You can no easier 'learn linux' than 'learn programming'
[03:44] <Rei`ZzZz> Decide what you want to learn
[03:44] <j__> any help would be appreciated
[03:44] <Rei`ZzZz> Then learn it
[03:44] <werever> . Rei`ZzZz my problems are ubuntu 11 start with "allmount: disconnected plymouth" msg and I have no access to GUI
[03:45] <Rei`ZzZz> plymouth is new gdm right?
[03:45] <tohui> sorry i guess i own my own
[03:45] <rww> nope
[03:45] <werever> . Rei`ZzZz I tried to fix it using some help on ubuntu forums
[03:45] <qin> Rei`ZzZz: no
[03:45] <Rei`ZzZz> tohui: You need to know what exactly you want to learn, learning linux is like learning math, or learning english
[03:46] <Rei`ZzZz> You cant just ask 'how do I learn math?'
[03:46] <Rei`ZzZz> You have to choose the bits you want to learn, and then learn them, tohui
[03:46] <tohui> i want to be a hacker
[03:47] <Rei`ZzZz> tohui: lol best question is why
[03:47] <tohui> but i dont know what to learn  first
[03:47] <joshlegs> btw apparently i have a bad nic dli
[03:47] <qin> line -40 save to.bash.org
[03:47] <tohui> to help
[03:47] <tohui> the people
[03:47] <Rei`ZzZz> tohui: To help who?
[03:47] <rww> tohui: #ubuntu is for Ubuntu technical support. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for chit chat.
[03:48] <tohui> the world is getting very unfair
[03:48] <dli> joshlegs, the easiest to test the card is to try on another computer
[03:48] <Rei`ZzZz> tohui: I suggest #ubuntu-offtopic for this one but I doubt you'll get much help in Linux channels to be a hacker
[03:48] <tohui> sorry again
[03:48] <abstrakt> tohui, actually it's easy, just buy a book on "network security", learn what the good guys have to defend against
[03:48] <j__> i need help connecting to the internet in kde
[03:49] <abstrakt> tohui, then you can hax0rs all the bad guyz
[03:49] <tohui> do i nedd to learn programming?
[03:49] <mgj> to be a hacker, who breaks into other programs? nooo.... i dont see how programming is relevant to that :P
[03:49] <abstrakt> tohui, well, to be a "real" hacker? yes... most "hackers" get by just being "script kiddies"
[03:49] <tohui> which should i learn first?
[03:50] <maum> I cannot hear the sound even though I put the command(alsa force-reload) into /etc/rc.local file.
[03:50] <rww> !hacking
[03:50] <abstrakt> tohui, programming
[03:50] <Rei`ZzZz> tohui: Most of 'being a hacker' is social engineering
[03:50] <rww> and again, I hint that this is offtopic for this channel.
[03:50] <Rei`ZzZz> Unless you mean 'be a script kiddie'
[03:51] <tohui> i need some directions
[03:51] <brophat> anyone have the problem when moving windows around the desktop they keep expanding to full screen when you are not intending them to
[03:51] <Snooffy> Darksmurf: w8 a sec
[03:51] <tohui> i have plenty of time
[03:51] <werever> . Rei`ZzZz do you know how to force ubuntu to start with classical interface?, I am in recovery mode, but If i type startx, my ubuntu installation uses gnome 3 with some problems
[03:51] <brophat> the is when you let go of the mouse click
[03:51] <tohui> please i need a mentor
[03:51] <brophat> it is annoying as all heck
[03:51] <Rei`ZzZz> werever: Sadly not, I haven't used Ubuntu for 5 years, most of my knowledge is general Unix
[03:52] <mgj> tohui, directions? Okay. Spend 5 years in college learning how to program. Then spend a couple of years learning about operating systems. Then a couple of years learning about networking. I guess after that, you can start hacking a little bit on a beginners level
[03:52] <Snooffy> from win you can use Pendrive Linux, that allows you create a persistent file as well and compare to "create startup disk" on ubuntu/kubuntu cds this works every time...  http://www.pendrivelinux.com/
[03:52] <werever> . Rei`ZzZz do you know some ppl can hep me I really need help fixing my ubuntu installation
[03:53] <Rei`ZzZz> werever: Try posting on the Ubuntu forum
[03:53] <abstrakt> nah, don't go to college to learn programming, that's a waste of good money
[03:53] <mgj> abstrakt, agreed, but im trying to scare him off being a blackhat :P
[03:53] <Rei`ZzZz> abstrakt: Disagree, the contacts I made were well worth what I spent even if the lessons weren't
[03:53] <abstrakt> oh right, ok
[03:53] <rww> Rei`ZzZz, abstrakt: Take it to #ubuntu-offtopic.
[03:53] <maum> I cannot hear the sound even though I put the command(alsa force-reload) into /etc/rc.local file.
[03:54] <werever> amy problem is already posted in some trheats without solution, I have many days trying to fix it and searching on forums, etc
[03:54] <ActionParsnip> maum: did you add it above the exit 0 line?
[03:54] <maum> ActionParsnip, yes
[03:54] <ActionParsnip> maum: can users run the command (without sudo)?
[03:55] <maum> ActionParsnip, I have to put sudo in the terminal. if I want to run manually
[03:56] <klay> so i think i am a little confused here....
[03:56] <maum> ActionParsnip, Should I write "sudo" in rc.local?
[03:57] <abstrakt> maum, no
[03:57] <klay> backports repositorys...
[03:57] <abstrakt> maum, rc.local is run by the root user so you don't need sudo
[03:57] <abstrakt> maum, you do however need full and absolute paths
[03:57] <rafaell> hello my friends
[03:57] <klay> cant hit the 9.04 jaunty repo's
[03:57] <rww> !eol | klay
[03:57] <werever> can I enable network connection from command line? I need to update some packages but I have acces to command line only
[03:58] <seclm193> blade, hey
[03:58] <klay> any easy way to get software with all dependancies with backports?
[03:58] <mgj> werever, a simple "ifup eth0" should do it i believe
[03:58] <rww> klay: 9.04 is no longer supported, hence backports not working. See the message from ubottu.
[03:58] <maum> abstrakt, I don't know why alsa force-reload is not working.
[03:58] <AltReality> Greets all
[03:58] <mrdeb> yes
[03:58] <mgj> werever, if your NIC is named eth0, ofcourse
[03:58] <maum> abstrakt, in the terminal, it works well.
[03:58] <mrdeb> ubuntu 904 was pretty gooid
[03:58] <werever> - mgj thanks trying now
[03:59] <klay> i figured that, but for some reason my wifi dongle.... will not work with anything above 9.04 even if i rox the ndis wrapper with the correct driver for my wifi chip.
[03:59] <rafaell> hi, help me
[03:59] <AltReality> Anyone know what might cause a 'error: out of disk' message with a grub rescue> prompt at boot?
[03:59] <rww> klay: That's unfortunate, but 9.04 is still not supported here...
[03:59] <seclm193> blade, read pm
[03:59] <klay> lol
[04:00] <klay> i know, just kinda irratating, loved the 9.04 had a nice stable system stripped down to basic necessitys
[04:00] <werever> - mgj I got "ignoring unkonw interface eth0=eth0"
[04:00] <rww> !tab | werever
[04:00] <mgj> so your NIC isnt called 'eth0'
[04:00] <werever> - mgj I using recovery mode and command line
[04:00] <brophat> nobody else has that problem when you move a window and release the mouse click the window maximizes
[04:00] <brophat> ?
[04:00] <NickNakz> can anyone suggest the easiest VM application for Ubuntu.. to setup?
[04:01] <brophat> is that something in the preferences?
[04:01] <klay> nick virtual box
[04:01] <mgj> NickNakz, virtualbox
[04:01] <mgj> werever, is it a wireless network chip or?
[04:01] <klay> if your running the "supported" in-life distro
[04:01] <NickNakz> lemme check virtual box for a sec
[04:01] <abstrakt> NickNakz, yeah, i would vote for VirtualBox by sun
[04:01] <klay> easy to just hit synaptic up
[04:01] <NickNakz> i was checking one out the other day
[04:01] <NickNakz> brb
[04:01] <werever> . mgj I have cable connected for easy connection
[04:01] <klay> cool,
[04:02] <mgj> strange
[04:02] <mgj> does ubuntu not follow the ethX naming convention?
[04:02] <abstrakt> NickNakz, there's also KVM if you know what you're doing
[04:02] <werever> [mgj] I think yes
[04:02] <NickNakz> abstrakt:  cool... ok, that's what i started with.  think i missed the step to install OS in the VM
[04:03] <rww> mgj: as with other Linuxes, it depends on the kernel module being used.
[04:03] <klay> theirs allso sun Vsphere
[04:03] <klay> gotta jump through hoops to get free version.
[04:03] <klay> to rock a bare metal hypervisor
[04:04] <mgj> rww, i have never experienced a wired NIC being called anything but ethX. Seems strange to me that his ubuntu tells him that eth0 is unknown
[04:04] <tfdev> I was having audio problems on my machine the other night when someone convinced me to uninstall pulse audio, now I have 0 sounds. total nub to linux... please help folks
[04:04] <klay> MGJ you have replys to pings etc?
[04:05] <klay> hmm yeah no ethX
[04:05] <AltReality> Anyone know what might cause a 'error: out of disk' message with a grub rescue> prompt at boot?
[04:05] <mgj> klay, not my problem, werever's
[04:05] <rww> mgj: that message means that eth0 isn't defined in /etc/network/interfaces, not that it isn't in /dev/
[04:05] <abstrakt> NickNakz, you just have to boot the OS
[04:05] <abstrakt> NickNakz, like most OSes it will look for a drive with an OS, usually floppy then CD then HDD
[04:05] <mgj> rww, yes. It will be in /dev no matter if you actually have the hardware or not :P
[04:05] <werever> [mgj] no Iam trying without recovery mode, I am using a tty sesion and I got same error
[04:05] <NickNakz> abstrakt:  i deleted the test one i was trying before.  going to do it again now.
[04:05] <abstrakt> NickNakz, just add a new virtual CD drive and load in the ISO image of whatever OS you downloaded
[04:06] <abstrakt> NickNakz, then when you boot for the first time, it should check the "CD Drive" first, and if you have e.g. ubuntu-10.10.iso in there
[04:06] <NickNakz> abstrakt:  ok, i do have the boot disk... and that's what i missed
[04:06] <rww> mgj: actually, it won't be in /dev ever ;)
[04:06] <abstrakt> it'll just run it
[04:06] <werever> [mgj] eth0 is not listed under my /dev folder
[04:06] <mgj> rww, really? But sda/hda etc is there
[04:06] <tfdev> I uninstalled pulseaudio and now I have 0 audio... anyone have any advice?
[04:06]  * rww is getting mixed up with Some Other OS
[04:06] <NickNakz> abstrakt:  will i always need the boot disk to use the VM?  or does it install in there the 1st time?
[04:06] <mgj> rww, damn you, forcing me to boot up ubuntu
[04:07] <abstrakt> NickNakz, have you ever installed ubuntu from a CD?
[04:07] <cypha> ok, apparently ubuntu doesn't play nice with Xchat's tray icon
[04:07] <cypha> http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/03/how-to-hide-or-show-app-tray-applets-in-ubuntu-11-04/
[04:07] <abstrakt> NickNakz, it's a "virtual computer"... it works just like any other computer otherwise would
[04:07] <cypha> can someone show me how to get it back?
[04:07] <NickNakz> abstrakt:  yup yup.  installed from disk
[04:07] <abstrakt> NickNakz, it has a hard drive, cd drive, etc, so yes, it installs and works just like any other OS
[04:07] <abstrakt> but the hard drive and disk drive obviously are "virtual" and may or may not correspond to the real HDD or CDR on your actual physicial system
[04:08] <NickNakz> abstrakt:  ok, got it now.
[04:08] <seclm193> I believe I do not like ubuntu 11.04, it keeps breaking my graphic driver
[04:08] <ActionParsnip> cypha: get what back?
[04:08] <mgj> rww, you are right, neither wlanX or ethX is in /dev
[04:08] <cypha> ActionParsnip, the XChat tray alert icon
[04:08] <ActionParsnip> seclm193: are there bugs reported?
[04:08] <mgj> interesting
[04:08] <abstrakt> cypha, well that's unity, if you switch back to classic gnome you should be fine
[04:08] <ActionParsnip> cypha: could use alltray
[04:08] <cypha> abstrakt, that's a terrible solution
[04:09] <abstrakt> i hear unity is a terrible WM so it sounds like a good solution to me :)
[04:09] <tfdev> I have 0 audio...
[04:09] <ActionParsnip> abstrakt: unity isn't a WM
[04:09] <tfdev> This is an issue
[04:09] <seclm193> ActionParsnip, i believe the bugs are due to some libraries in fglrx is moved.  I have a RadeonHD 6250
[04:09] <werever> my problem is I cant access to my standar GUI, and i cant fixit, I can clean my HD and reinstall all, but I how copy all my information under my user encrypted folder to a external usb device?
[04:09] <abstrakt> cypha, either that or contribute a patch to x-chat that's compatible with unity
[04:09] <werever> I gonna DIE! lol
[04:09] <abstrakt> seclm193, this is why I always go nvidia when working with *nix
[04:09] <werever> and talking alone =( lol
[04:10] <werever> joderrrrrr
[04:10] <ActionParsnip> abstrakt: unity is a shell, unity (not unity-2D) needs Compiz to be the WM. unity is nothing more than a shell
[04:10] <mgj> Apparently the great ubuntu developers decides to go into teenage-angst-mode again, and be all so unique and creative, and for some reason dont use /etc/network/interfaces . Where are NIC's configured in ubuntu?
[04:10] <c0d> Hi
[04:10] <cypha> ActionParsnip, alltray wouldn't provide the alert feature I was hoping for
[04:10] <seclm193> abstrakt, I have a laptop.  Can't really change it
[04:10] <seclm193> lol
[04:10] <cypha> ActionParsnip, does this make any sense to you:  http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/03/how-to-hide-or-show-app-tray-applets-in-ubuntu-11-04/
[04:10] <abstrakt> seclm193, ahh, bummer
[04:11] <gigenieks_> Can anyone guide me how to use Quassel (add more channels) ?
[04:11] <gigenieks_> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Quassel
[04:11] <c0d> Hi mans, you like hacking?
[04:11] <gigenieks_> there is no "how to"
[04:11] <NickNakz> thanks all... ciao
[04:11] <mgj> werever, im sorry, i cannot help you. Need to figure out the insanities of ubuntu first. If you try any other linux distro, i should be able to help you but.... yeah....
[04:12] <gigenieks_> would like to add "#ubuntu" and others
[04:12] <seclm193> abstrakt, reinstalling 10.10 until the fix is ready.  it has to do with libraries and the new linux kernel.  Plus, I really do not like Unity
[04:12] <ActionParsnip> cypha: half
[04:12] <gigenieks_> chatting from web is ....
[04:12] <abstrakt> yeah i'm not gonna even bother with 11.x
[04:12] <abstrakt> i'm gonna wait for Ubuntu 12.x
[04:13] <cypha> ActionParsnip, can that fix my situation?
[04:13] <werever> . mgj noworry thanks again, strange things are I am on #ubuntu and nobody can help me today =(
[04:13] <ActionParsnip> cypha: seems the command in bold are the apps to be allowed into the tray, so if you add xchat in the list it may work
[04:13] <gigenieks_> someone? :/
[04:14] <mgj> werever, <rant> Because ubuntu tries to turn linux into windows by "simplifying" things. The result? Noone knows how to do anything. </rant>
[04:15] <dr_willis> gigenieks_:  try #kubuntu  i have only used that client  rarely
[04:16] <gigenieks_> dr_willis: there is noone right now :D
[04:16] <gigenieks_> just me chatting with myself
[04:16] <brandon> Hello, I have a question. I am reading a ebook about the comand line and it says "Most importantly, do not
[04:16] <brandon> embed spaces in filenames. If you want to represent spaces between words in
[04:16] <brandon> a filename, use underscore characters. You will thank yourself later." Why wouldn't I want to embed spaces?
[04:16] <werever> . mgj wich distro do you recommend to linux beginners?
[04:16] <AltReality> Holy Balls I deserve a medal!  Just figured out my own problem.
[04:16] <gigenieks_> It shouldn't be hard..
[04:16] <mgj> werever, ubuntu
[04:17] <dr_willis> gigenieks_:  i just use /join #whatever  out of habbit
[04:17] <gigenieks_> in IRC client?
[04:17] <mgj> werever, just because it sucks, doesnt mean that anything better exists =)
[04:17] <gigenieks> lol
[04:17] <dr_willis> gigenieks_:  yes.. irc basics..
[04:18] <werever> . mgj damm
[04:18] <gigenieks> it worked :P
[04:18] <cypha> ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/rbeKDJVS
[04:18] <werever> jeje
[04:18] <ActionParsnip> brandon: it just makes life a little harder. You will need to escape them like thise:  This\ File\ Has\ Spaces.txt
[04:18] <mgj> werever, dont take my too seriously, im exaggerating
[04:18] <gigenieks> I just was suspicious about Network: Kubuntu IRC
[04:18] <werever> hehehe}
[04:18] <werever> oaks
[04:19] <mgj> werever, but in linux, you can fix your network in 2 steps: 1. Configure your /etc/network/interfaces . 2. Use "ifup" to enable the network chip. You are now done.
[04:19] <mgj> werever, that does not work in ubuntu. Why? Who fucking knows, apparently the ubuntu devs thought it was a great idea to go against every other linux distro in existance
[04:19] <ActionParsnip> cypha: you never opened a bracket, check syntax
[04:20] <ActionParsnip> brandon: not the end of the world as tab completing handles it nicely
[04:20] <cypha> ActionParsnip, yes, I just fixed that
[04:20] <cypha> same problem
[04:20] <werever> wanna cry lol
[04:20] <ActionParsnip> cypha: now you know as much as I do, I pretty much let the defaults stand
[04:20] <brandon> ActionParsnip: Wouldn't that be outrageous? I was just curious onto why the ebook writer would say that it would be easier.
[04:20] <werever> . mgj which distro do you use?
[04:20] <werever> . mgj or do you recommend
[04:21] <cypha> ActionParsnip, do you think I should disable Unity?
[04:21] <mgj> ubuntu :P
[04:21] <cypha> and use ubuntu classic?
[04:21] <werever> damm
[04:21] <ActionParsnip> brandon: is it the writer itself or a book you are reading via the app?
[04:21] <werever> . mgj I am fucked
[04:21] <rabbit1> got a prob with 8.04 ..... gnome is not running, any suggestion?
[04:21] <ActionParsnip> cypha: you can boot to ubuntu classic, or you can use an alternate desktop like LXDE, XFCE, KDE or others etc
[04:22] <cypha> ActionParsnip, Unity = Gnome?
[04:22] <mgj> werever, you just need to be better friends with google. Im sure the answer to "How do i enable network in console in ubuntu" exists
[04:22] <ActionParsnip> cypha: unity will show if you enable compiz. Unity is not gnome
[04:22] <rww> "Unity is a shell for GNOME, but it is not GNOME Shell."
[04:22] <brandon> ActionParsnip, the ebook I am reading is The Linux Command Line by William E. Shotts, Jr. He just I thought Tab would finish the directory like how it is in Windows.
[04:23] <cypha> rww, I'm trying to get the tray icon for Xchat alerts to work
[04:23] <cypha> any suggestions?
[04:23] <ActionParsnip> werever: if you get a wired link you can run:  sudo dhclient eth0    and it will get dhcp and you can do what you wish
[04:23] <cypha> I just downloaded alltray as ActionParsnip suggested
[04:23] <rww> cypha: If I had any, I would have offered them when you asked ;)
[04:23]  * rww uses KDE, is not a good source for GNOME tips
[04:23] <rabbit1> i got a gnome prob, when i run "repair" it asks to install xulrunner 1.9 ... any suggestion ?
[04:23] <ActionParsnip> werever: wicd has a nice curses interface (easier config at cli)
[04:23] <cypha> but I was wondering if there was a legit solution, since the alltray solution still doesn't provide alerts
[04:24] <ActionParsnip> cypha: could as in the xchat channel
[04:24] <cypha> rww, is it worth switchign to KDE?
[04:24] <cypha> ActionParsnip, I did, it's apparently a bug
[04:24] <werever> [ActionParsnip] what is wicd
[04:24] <rww> cypha: that's an equivalent question to "Is it worth painting my walls blue?"
[04:24] <cypha> LifeIsPain pointed me to the gsettings solution
[04:24] <dr_willis> i like blue
[04:25] <cypha> me too
[04:25] <cypha> rww, should everything be compatible with kde?
[04:25] <ActionParsnip> cypha: then until it gets resolved it will be an issue
[04:25] <cypha> that comes stock with ubuntu
[04:25] <rww> cypha: I have yet to see a program that runs in GNOME and doesn't run in KDE, and vice versa.
[04:25] <blade> KDE is too much like that "other OS" for my taste
[04:25] <cypha> rww, then I'll just get KDE
[04:25] <cypha> how do I do that?
[04:25]  * ActionParsnip rocks LXDE :)
[04:26] <cypha> blade, which other?
[04:26] <dr_willis> cypha: thats a neat thing. most all kde apps work on gnome and visa versa
[04:26] <cypha> which is faster, KDE or gnome?
[04:26] <dajxd> is it possible to boot a live OS from a partition?
[04:26] <vivekimsit> Hello everyone :)
[04:26] <nit-wit> dajxd, yes
[04:26] <blade> cypha, cant say what the "other" is but if you use KDE once you will know lol
[04:26] <dr_willis> cypha:  lxde ;)
[04:27] <rww> cypha: blade is under the impression that KDE having a button in the bottom-left by default means it's practically Windows.
[04:27] <vivekimsit> how can i download videos from the internet in ubuntu..?
[04:27] <tyler_d> when I am trying to use nvidia drivers, I get dropped to console and the Xorg.0 error states; no screen found... anyone help me please?
[04:27] <dr_willis> for kde - take the time read some guides on it
[04:27] <Dice-Man> there is also xfce cypha
[04:27] <dajxd> nit-wit: thanks! should grub2 be able to recognize a live XP?
[04:27] <Dice-Man> cypha: imho i would say xfce is between gnome and lxde
[04:27] <cypha> i just wanted something that is lightweight, highly compatible, and doesn't look like windows 95
[04:27] <nit-wit> dajxd, I'm looking for the UBuntu Forumlink, hold on.
[04:27] <dajxd> nit-wit: :) thanks.
[04:27] <Dice-Man> cypha: then xfce could be good
[04:28] <Dice-Man> but the ball is on your side :) just test it's free !
[04:28] <cypha> Dice-Man, how do I try all these different things?
[04:28] <cypha> repoz/
[04:28] <cypha> ?
[04:28] <Dice-Man> cypha: well you could find livecds
[04:28] <dr_willis> cypha:  compatiable is a bit of buzz word. most all gnome/kde/whatever apps should work with any desktop or wm
[04:28] <Dice-Man> or the ubuntu dvd ?
[04:28] <mgj> I like the window manager "Awesome" - Yes, i use it only because of its name, xmonad is superior in every way but..... Cmon, its called "Awesome"!
[04:28] <blade> rww, no that is not why i think that lol it is just the way it feels to me is all.... reminds me of win 7
[04:28] <nit-wit> dajxd, enjoy, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1549847
[04:28] <cypha> dr_willis, how do I try them all?
[04:29] <cypha> are they in the repository?
[04:29] <rww> blade: Your statement feels silly to me :P
[04:29] <dr_willis> cypha:  install them.. try them..
[04:29] <dajxd> nit-wit:  you're the man, thanks!
[04:29] <dr_willis> !kubuntu
[04:29] <ActionParsnip> cypha: they are all themable, so looking like Win95 is a little moot
[04:30] <nit-wit> dajxd, here is a from the grub rescue prompt and a loopback. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1599293
[04:30] <dajxd> nit-wit: got it!
[04:30] <tyler_d> whats the room for the compiz help?
[04:30] <mgj> blade, you make it sound like win7 has a horrible UI
[04:30] <Phr3d13> !compiz
[04:30] <blade> rww,  well it just may be silly then.... just how KDE feels to me... i have always been a fan of gnome
[04:30] <mgj> "reminding you of win7" is not necessarely a bad thing
[04:30] <dabukalam> HELLO THIS IS EXTREMELY OT BUT VERY QUICK. WHO IS THIS GUY?!!!!!!!!!!! http://i.imgur.com/FOCdv.png
[04:30] <nit-wit> dajxd, different methods my as well have as much as you can, have agood time. ;)
[04:30] <dabukalam> JUST A NAME
[04:31] <dabukalam> IT'S STUCK IN MY HEAD
[04:31] <blade> mgj, i would not say that it just dont work for me..... i'm not big on a 900 meg service pack
[04:31] <cypha> ActionParsnip, there's some issue with gnome currently, and I have to run sudo gnome-settings-daemon
[04:31] <mgj> blade, what does a 900mb service pack have to do with UI?
[04:31] <cypha> but if i don't run it, it looks like windows 95, and I can't change the theme
[04:31] <cypha> anyway, what's the kde package called?
[04:31] <nguyenthang> huhu....
[04:32] <dr_willis> !info kubuntu-desktop
[04:32] <cypha> dr_willis, you're suggesting unintsalling ubuntu?
[04:32] <cypha> and getting kubuntu?
[04:32] <cypha> I can't just make the change within ubuntu?
[04:32] <mgj> ofcourse you can
[04:32] <blade> mgj, not so much the UI that i dont like .... just you can not install the service pack and have a dual boot.....
[04:32] <dr_willis> cypha: you miss the point..
[04:32] <cypha> mgj, what's the package?
[04:32] <nit-wit> dabukalam, to small a picture, a young Harrison Ford?
[04:33] <mgj> cypha, there are tutorials for installing other window managers on the ubuntu forums and/or wiki
[04:33] <dabukalam> no, it was taken in 2011
[04:33] <dr_willis> cypha:  you can have them all installed at the same time
[04:33] <cypha> dr_willis, how so?
[04:33] <mgj> blade, i dont care, we were talking about UI
[04:33] <cypha> without uninstalling ubuntu
[04:33] <dr_willis> package is  kubuntu-desktop
[04:33] <Phr3d13> do you still have to use "--enable-user-scripts" to use userscripts in google chrome?
[04:33] <dr_willis> cypha:  its how linux works
[04:33] <mgj> blade, service packs and dual boot has _NOTHING_ to do with UI
[04:33] <blade> mgj, dont take my statement as win-bashing i just like gnome better.... that was my point
[04:34]  * rww nudges the UI discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:34] <dr_willis> cypha:  just install kubutu-desktop package and pick kde at login
[04:34] <cypha> k
[04:34] <cypha> doing so now
[04:34] <blade> mgj, and again i will say ...... I JUST LIKE GENOME BETTER.... sorry for stating my opinion ...
[04:34] <ActionParsnip> Phr3d13: not anymore
[04:34] <mgj> blade, and my point was that "reminds you of win7" is a good thing. Win7 has a good UI. Its still horrible as an OS in many ways, but its UI works
[04:34] <cypha> dr_willis, requires a full restart, yes?
[04:34] <cypha> or can I just restart X?
[04:34] <ActionParsnip> cypha: no, just log off
[04:35] <mgj> blade, dont martyr
[04:35] <cypha> k
[04:35] <Phr3d13> i can't get a certain userscript to work properly and the creator doesn't support chrome for the script
[04:35] <dr_willis> cypha   just log out i think
[04:35] <Phr3d13> where should i ask for help?
[04:35] <blade> Phr3d13, depends on what you need help with
[04:35] <dr_willis> whats a userscript ayway
[04:36] <mgj> blade, can i ask if you are an American?
[04:36] <rww> mgj: No, you can't.
[04:36] <mgj> ok
[04:36] <Phr3d13> a .js script that changes web pages as they load, allowing features like a wall manager for facebook, or stuff like that
[04:37] <deven_> i m going in additions drivers to install nvdia drivers its giving error to me saying, "system error: Binary package nvidia has no trusted origin, rejecting",  how to fix this?
[04:37] <cypha> brb
[04:37] <blade> mgj,  the UI may "work" but that dont mean i have to like it....
[04:37] <Phr3d13> a "grease monkey" script
[04:37] <mgj> blade, ofcourse
[04:37] <dr_willis> grease monkey forums  Phr3d13  i would look there
[04:38] <mgj> blade, but seeing how you jump the martyr wagon at the first sight of someone even slightly disagreeing with you (not really)...... lets stop talking about this
[04:38] <blade> mgj, just a thought but if we are going to keep at this should we not take it to off topic?
[04:38] <Phr3d13> but i'm not using grease monkey, as user script is now worked into google chrome
[04:39] <blade> mgj, lol agreed
[04:39] <dr_willis> chrome forums then i guess
[04:39] <ActionParsnip> blade: unity is default in Gnome 11.10, it uses unity 2D if you have no 3D acceleration
[04:39] <Phr3d13> but wouldn' t they just tell me they don't support the individual scripts?
[04:39] <mgj> blade, IM JUST STATING MY OPINION OKAY!
[04:40] <blade> mgj, okay
[04:40] <dr_willis> Phr3d13:  oe way to find out
[04:40] <Phr3d13> dr_willis, true
[04:40] <rww> mgj, blade: Next person to continue this silly conversation magically disappears from the channel. Just fyi :P
[04:40] <blade> ActionParsnip, i have no idea what unity is i did not upgrade...
[04:40] <blade> rww, thank you
[04:40] <dr_willis> !unity
[04:40] <Phr3d13> ok, thanks for the info
[04:40] <mgj> *poof*
[04:41] <mgj> unity sucks, xmonad is awesome
[04:41] <mgj> win7 ui too
[04:41] <Phr3d13> lol!!!!
[04:41] <kelsin> I never thought I'd see someone say positive things about win7 AND xmonad
[04:41] <Phr3d13> what is xmonad?
[04:41] <Phr3d13> !xmonad
[04:41] <kelsin> http://xmonad.org/
[04:42] <kelsin> tiling windows manager written in haskell
[04:42] <dr_willis> a rather specilized window manager
[04:43] <rww> eh, screw it. today seems like a good day for some spring cleaning.
[04:43] <rabbit1> dr_willis: hi, got a prob with 8.04.... advanced display items are not loaded, looks like a gnome prob, and while i say "repair" it says xulrunner to be reinstalled.... whats wrong ? will it help if i reset the gnome config file ?
[04:44] <dr_willis> rabbit1:  make new user see if it works for them. if so then its a user setting issue for the problem user
[04:44] <ActionParsnip> rabbit1: use apt-get to install xulrunner is a good first step
[04:44] <dr_willis> so a reset  may fix things
[04:45] <blade> rww, i thought you baned me ..... i was sad...
[04:45] <alpha_> I'm using 11.04. How do I switch back to the view that could be seen in 10.04 and 10.10? I don't want the big menu-thing to the left
[04:45] <blade> but i got the connection back.... :)
[04:45] <rabbit1> dr_willis: ActionParsnip thanks friends....
[04:45] <rww> !classic | alpha_
[04:46] <blade> rww, does compiz work in unity now?
[04:46] <dr_willis> unity uses compiz
[04:46] <dr_willis> unity-2d does not
[04:51] <blade> dr_willis, ok i guess i dont understand...
[04:51] <dr_willis> compiz is the window manager unity runs on top of.
[04:52] <dr_willis> unity has a compiz  plugin
[04:52] <vivekimsit> my cache stops caching when my video size gets 25Mb .... can it be solved?
[04:55] <JZApples> I am trying to enable the propriety NVIDIA driver for my GeForce GTS 250 but am not having any luck.  When I go to Additional Drivers the Help says to "Press Activate to enable the driver." but this button is nowhere to be found.  The NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver is listed and says that it is activated but not currently in use.  How do I enable it?
[04:56] <ActionParsnip> JZApples: sudo apt-get -y install nvidia-current
[04:56] <cypha> yay
[04:56] <cypha> kde
[04:56] <cypha> so i'm on kde plasma display
[04:56] <cypha> is that what i'm supposed to be on?
[04:56] <cypha> there was no other kde option
[04:56] <JZApples> nvidia-current is already the newest version.
[04:56] <wols> !nvidia
[04:57] <dr_willis> JZApples:  there a bug where it can be not in use.. when it really is. run the nvidia-settings tool to see
[04:57] <ActionParsnip> JZApples: then reboot, should be fine
[04:57] <oscalation> ActionParsnip, gota question for you regarding an answer you provided on launchpad.  https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+question/166158     is there a list that you reference for compatibility?
[04:57] <cypha> dr_willis, by mistake I selected gde instead of kde during install as my login manager for x
[04:57] <cypha> can I switch that?
[04:57] <dr_willis> kde plasma is the desktop kde iterface
[04:57] <cypha> ok, cool
[04:57] <ActionParsnip> oscalation: it will run, just how well is another question. The liveCD will show how well it runs
[04:58] <dr_willis> kdm or gdm, dosent matter much
[04:58] <cypha> dr_willis, , can I switch my login though?
[04:58] <ActionParsnip> oscalation: didn't check any list, I simply said to try it
[04:58] <rww> cypha: I think "sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm" would switch them
[04:58] <cypha> just so it matches my desktop
[04:58] <cypha> thanks rww
[04:58] <ActionParsnip> cypha: both are fine
[04:58] <dr_willis> sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm
[04:58] <rww> cypha: and yes, Plasma Desktop is the desktop created by KDE :)
[04:58] <oscalation> ActionParsnip, what i figured, just wanted to make sure
[04:59] <dr_willis> kde uses some weird terms.. sounds like stuff from the bioshock game...
[04:59] <JZApples> dr_willis:  where do I look to see if its the propriety one?
[04:59] <cypha> awesome dpkg-reconfigure kdm did it
[04:59] <dr_willis> JZApples:  nvidia-settings wont run if they are not in use, i think
[04:59] <ActionParsnip> JZApples: run nvidia-settings    it will give an error if it's not running
[05:00] <dr_willis> or it will give an error
[05:00] <cypha> dr_willis, are you on irssi? xchat?
[05:00] <wols> and glxinfo tells you it uses a nvidia opengl
[05:00] <dr_willis> cypha:   andchat over znc   ;)
[05:00] <celthunder> cypha: /ctcp dr_willis version
[05:00] <ActionParsnip> JZApples: your screen may suck and not be reporting its abilities when asked so you may need to run:  sudo nvidia-xconfig     and reboot
[05:00] <cypha> dr_willis, seriously? always on the phone, huh
[05:00] <celthunder> dr_willis: andchat's prertty nice
[05:00] <SexyBoBo> know this is not really right place to ask but what should i use to boot from a thumbdrive to diskcheck my ubuntu install drive?
[05:00] <dr_willis> at work.. yes
[05:00] <cypha> oh cool, didn't know you could ctcp people
[05:01] <dr_willis> andchat needs some work.
[05:01] <JZApples> ActionParsnip:  WARNING: Unable to locate/open X configuration file.    New X configuration file written to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[05:01] <cypha> dr_willis, agreed, but it's the best one we've got
[05:01] <ActionParsnip> JZApples: that's normal, ubuntu doesn't ship with an xorg.conf file anymore
[05:01] <cypha> there needs to be more chat history to scroll up through
[05:01] <ActionParsnip> celthunder: andchat rocks :)
[05:01] <blade> JZApples, you have to set the xorg.conf up
[05:02] <JZApples> ActionParsnip:  so reboot and I'm good to go?
[05:02] <dr_willis> i have a bluetooth keybord. andchat dosent support my real tab key for nick completion  for example
[05:02] <wols> JZApples: no reboot
[05:02] <blade> JZApples, i only know hot to do it with ati .... but it should be a command line in terminal
[05:02] <ActionParsnip> JZApples: should be ok
[05:03] <JZApples> ActionParsnip:  THANK YOU, I'll restart and let you know
[05:03] <ActionParsnip> JZApples: or you can restart X, reboot is easier
[05:03] <JZApples> ActionParsnip:  I need to reboot anyways.
[05:03] <SexyBoBo> any one? cant boot to ubuntu want to check disk no cd drive so has to boot from USB drive
[05:04] <cypha> rww, do you have any trouble getting new themes ? it keeps saying network error
[05:04] <rww> cypha: works fine for me :P
[05:04] <cypha> w t f
[05:04] <cypha> nothing wants to come easy for me today
[05:04] <wols> SexyBoBo: you can put the live cd on a usb stick and boot it
[05:04] <Eokt> So I installed Ubuntu and it's using the IEC binary prefixes; is there a patch to turn these off?
[05:04] <rww> cypha: you might want to ask #kubuntu, though. I'm in the middle of something.
[05:05] <dr_willis> worry about themes later. ;)
[05:05] <wols> SexyBoBo: but any other linux distro will do to. what happens when you try to boot your ubuntu?
[05:05] <Technicus> Hello . . . I am trying to figure out how to do internet connection sharing both wired and also to broadcast a wireless access point from my lappy.  How can I achieve this configuration?
[05:05] <cypha> dr_willis, this is clean and the tray works, nothing else to do but worry about the theme now :)
[05:05] <SexyBoBo> doesn't get past bios HDD error
[05:05] <cypha> i really like it though
[05:05] <blade> SexyBoBo, you will need to make a live thumb drive.... look for "unetbootin"  you can get it for windows or linux
[05:05] <cypha> thanks for the advice dr_willis
[05:05] <cypha> and rww
[05:06] <JZApples> ActionParsnip:  It still says "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system" in Additional Drivers.
[05:06] <blade> JZApples, what vid card?
[05:06] <wols> JZApples: what's in your xorg.conf?
[05:07] <cypha> rww will do
[05:07] <cypha> geez, kubuntu has to be my new hangout now
[05:07] <SexyBoBo> wols blade TY
[05:07] <cypha> #kubuntu
[05:07] <wols> blade: gts 250
[05:07] <blade> wols, what did i do? lol
[05:08] <wols> < blade> JZApples, what vid card?
[05:08] <Eokt> Nvm found it: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/natty/man5/vnstat.conf.5.html
[05:08] <blade> wols, ahh ok... i only know how to set up the xorg.conf with ati sorry
[05:08] <JZApples> blade:  GeForce GTS 250
[05:09] <blade> JZApples, it should be like the ati though... i would think... just a terminal command to set the geforce config to wright to the xorg.conf
[05:10] <blade> JZApples, i will look and see what i can find
[05:10] <JZApples> blade, thanks
[05:11] <JZApples> wols, how do i show you what's in my xorg.conf?  pastes link at the top?
[05:11] <wols> !paste
[05:11] <JZApples> wols, it's been pasted
[05:12] <riddler> i have linux installed, but i wanna install other distro, but then I want the Grub2 to be on the main(first) distro, how do I do that?
[05:12] <wols> JZApples: read the factoid again: "Make sure you give us the URL for your paste"
[05:12] <JZApples> wols, sorry http://paste.ubuntu.com/653542/
[05:13] <wols> if you restart your X, nvidia drivers are used. and you can check with looking at Xorg.0.log or glxinfo
[05:13] <gigenieks> can someone tell
[05:13] <gigenieks> if it is possible to search in ubuntuforums by more than 1 user?
[05:14] <riddler> does anybody know?  how I can make my first distro have grub2 so when I installed other distro and remove it, it wont mess up the boot stuff
[05:14] <nit-wit> gigenieks, easier to look on google with nic and ubuntu forums
[05:14] <JZApples> wols:  why doesn't it say that in Additional Drivers?
[05:14] <wols> riddler: just install grub with that distro you want and put the grub files to the distro you aren't uninstalling
[05:15] <gigenieks> with "easier" you mean "better" (more accuret search results) ?
[05:15] <wols> JZApples: why doesn't it say what? and I told you how to check. have you?
[05:15] <gigenieks> but if i want search post by user A
[05:15] <gigenieks> and user B
[05:15] <gigenieks> can I do that in "1 search"
[05:16] <riddler> wols:  hmm.. ok thnx
[05:16] <JZApples> wols:  in Additional Drivers it says "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system."  And the NVIDIA accelerated graphics drivers has a green dot next to it that says "This driver is activated but not currently in use."
[05:16] <wols> JZApples: I asked you if you checked like I told you. yes or no?
[05:16] <nit-wit> riddler, you just need to understand how to reload the mbr with grub, and some OS will allow no grub install.
[05:16] <what_if> there was a linux live-usb installer with a gui, downloads the chosen distro automatically. Anyone know the name of this program, having trouble finding it again.
[05:17] <what_if> :)
[05:17] <nit-wit> riddler, whatever distro is first in the grubmenu list is the controlling grub bootloader.
[05:18] <JZApples> wols:  sorry I'm new to linux.  here:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/653543/
[05:19] <blade> JZApples, did you check your glxinfo in terminal ?
[05:19] <seclm193> Anyone tried Gnome 3?
[05:19] <JZApples> blade: i typed that, it says" glxinfo: command not found"
[05:20] <wols> JZApples: it's in mesa-utils IIRC
[05:20] <JZApples> wols: sorry i'm not sure what that means
[05:20] <JZApples> wols: download it from the package manager?
[05:20] <wols> !info mesa-utils
[05:21] <wols> if you install that package via apt, you can run glxinfo
[05:21] <ActionParsnip> JZApples: any better?
[05:21] <JZApples> ActionParsnip: no still working on it with wols and blade
[05:21] <wols> JZApples: he's using nvidia drivers it seems but for whatever reason his fancy GUI stuff isn't showing so
[05:22] <zacharyalexstern> Can anybody point me in the direction of how I disable the boot splash for Ubuntu 11.04? I've been googling it for 30 minutes.
[05:23] <Cyntrox> I can't get NFS to work :/ The command "sudo mount 10.0.0.1:/usr/music /mnt" gives the error "mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 10.0.0.1:/usr/music". Here's the /etc/exports of the server: http://paste.ubuntu.com/653544/ and here is the output of rpcinfo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/653546/ Can anyone help
[05:23] <JZApples> wols:  well i was also having video issues when i tried to use wine and steam to test ARMA2 yesterday
[05:23] <JZApples> but haven't tried it again today
[05:23] <wols> JZApples: your nvidia-settings run showed that there was no xorg.conf until a few minutes ago, so nvidia drivers didn't run before
[05:24] <JZApples> wols: should i just try it again?
[05:24] <ActionParsnip> Cyntrox: try using nautilus
[05:24] <wols> you should run glxinfo
[05:24] <JZApples> wols: done, pasting now
[05:24] <blade> wols,  is the geforce guy i see ;)
[05:25] <JZApples> wols, blade:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/653547/
[05:25] <ActionParsnip> Cyntrox: if you need to enter a username / password to access the device you will need that too
[05:25] <JZApples> blade: wols is my hero :)

[05:26] <Cyntrox> ActionParsnip: Is Nautilus the file browser? Do I have it in Xubuntu? I haven't used Ubuntu a lot, sorry :P
[05:26] <JZApples> wols: might take awhile, wine/steam run kind of slow
[05:28] <slink> does anyone have advice or a reference point on changing where the buttons are on the title bar? i've changed apps/metacity/general/button_layout with gconf-editor, which actually works, until i relogin/reboot
[05:28] <ActionParsnip> Cyntrox: it can be, default file browser is thunar
[05:29] <ActionParsnip> Cyntrox: what technology are the shares using?
[05:29] <ActionParsnip> slink: could add a startup item to move them
[05:29] <slink> at last resort i would do that
[05:29] <slink> i figure it "might" have something to do with having an encrypted home folder
[05:30] <Cyntrox> ActionParsnip: I'm not sure what you mean by technology. It is a NFS share running on rpc.nfsd.
[05:31] <Cyntrox> Oops, dropped out for a moment there
[05:32] <ActionParsnip> slink: gconftool-2 --type string --set /apps/metacity/general/button_layout "menu:minimize,maximize,close"
[05:32] <ActionParsnip> Cyntrox: then its NFS
[05:33] <Cyntrox> ActionParsnip: That's right. I might have made an assumption about the obviousness of that fact.

[05:35] <greyfiend> Hey I'm using ubuntu studio 11.04 and am getting random mouse freezing especially using chromium, I can still navigate around the page using the arrow keys so it is only the mouse that freezes, the freeze lasts about 5 seconds and happens every few minutes. This is on a thinkpad l520, any suggestions?
[05:35] <orated> When using CLI, one can stop the process by pressing Ctrl+Z. But, what in a GUI if the screen hangs with a black screen and you cannot even kill it or go back to desktop?
[05:36] <blade> greyfiend, are you using a touch mouse ... if so try to use an external mouse and see if you get the same problem
[05:37] <SexyBoBo> Whats command to force fsck next restart?
[05:37] <greyfiend> blade: yup same problem, tried disabling the touchpad as well, no change.
[05:38] <blade> greyfiend, have you tried to run classic desktop and see if the problem remains
[05:38] <coder2> Hey I'm using ubuntu natty 11.04 and my system hangs many times and then i have to restart the system,why this is happening to me,i am using dell studio 1558 laptop
[05:38] <greyfiend> blade: studio runs classic desktop by default no?
[05:38] <ActionParsnip> !fsck | SexyBoBo
[05:39] <JZApples> wols: i can't tell if its working or not.  for some reason when i load up steam/wine and then play ARMA2 I can't click on any of the buttons in game.  I have done zero configuration with that though so I'm not sure if its setup properly.
[05:39] <blade> greyfiend, yes it does sorry i did not see that ... stuido also has some problems as it did not go to unity with the 11.4
[05:39] <JZApples> wols: i'm not much of a gamer so I don't really care, just would have like to have kept steam on in case others wanted to play it
[05:40] <ActionParsnip> JZApples: check the appdb for the game
[05:40] <JZApples> ActionParsnip: explain please?
[05:41] <Cyntrox> ActionParsnip: I'll keep looking, thanks
[05:41] <almoxarife> I can't find where to turn on logging of dropped iptables rules, help
[05:41] <ActionParsnip> JZApples: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=10054   doesn't work
[05:41] <ActionParsnip> JZApples: the appdb is a BIG list of windows apps and if they work or not, and how they can be made to play better
[05:42] <ActionParsnip> JZApples: you may find that it runs with crossover office or cedega but those are not free in any way but may get your game running
[05:42] <blade> JZApples, playonlinux is also something you may want to look into
[05:42] <orated> How to stop a GUI application like any game if it hangs on start? How to get back to desktop in such cases?
[05:42] <JZApples> Actionparsnip: i read that cedega is 5 dollars a month, no way i'm doing that
[05:43] <cypha>  can I make the same terminal window appear and disappear with a keyboard shortcut? even if it loses focus
[05:43] <JZApples> blade: i briefly read about playonlinux today but haven't looked further yet.
[05:43] <JZApples> blade: was hoping to get wine/steam working
[05:43] <wols> almoxarife: you turn it on via a iptable s log rule.
[05:43] <blade> JZApples, playonlinux is more of a GUI for all of that
[05:43] <ActionParsnip> JZApples: well your game company only supports Windows. There are good game makers (ID software) whom make native game engies for linux ;)
[05:44] <wols> orated: ctrl+alt+f1. log in there and kill it with kill or killall
[05:44] <ActionParsnip> JZApples: steam does run if memory servers, check the appdb :)
[05:44] <rww> cypha: yakuake might interest you
[05:44] <mcurran> how do you run .jar files in ubuntu?
[05:45] <orated> wols: And in the process of second login, all the work in first login will be lost?
[05:45] <wols> orated: no. linux is a multiuser system. nothing is lost. you can go back with ctrl+alt+f7
[05:45] <qdk> mcurran: answer #3 googling your exact question.
[05:45] <wols> mcurran: java -jar <jarfile> for example
[05:46] <blade> rww, yaduake is a KDE emulator right?
[05:46] <ActionParsnip> blade: yakuake is
[05:46] <ActionParsnip> !info yakuake
[05:46] <rww> blade: Yakuake is a terminal emulator for KDE.
[05:47] <ActionParsnip> blade: in gnome there is tilda and guake
[05:47] <qdk> !info htop
[05:47] <cypha> rww, looks interesting, looking into it
[05:47] <mcurran> thank you wols
[05:47] <orated> wols: But, that will create two logins. One in tty other active in F7... killing one particular application will resore first session to normal, you mean ..
[05:47] <blade> rww,  ActionParsnip thank you
[05:48] <cypha> what is the terminal command to open the default terminal application?
[05:48] <wols> cypha: /etc/alternatives/x-terminal-emulator
[05:48] <rww> cypha: on Ubuntu and Debian, x-terminal-emulator should work
[05:48] <wols> rww: is it in PATH?
[05:49] <wols> ah, /usr/bin link
[05:49] <rww> yup
[05:49] <orated> wols: And, how to find the id of the running application to kill in this case?
[05:49] <cypha> x-terminal-emulator just opens up xterm
[05:50] <wols> orated: man ps, man top. and killall doesn't need a PID
[05:51] <rww> cypha: then xterm is apparently the default terminal emulator as far as the alternatives system is concerned.
[05:51] <cypha> rww, i have konsole set as the default
[05:52] <rww> cypha: update-alternatives --display x-terminal-emulator

[05:56] <cheebu> i have ubuntu 10.04 i downloaded virtual box... (((... the error msg poped up saying that i should run apt-get install -f

[06:07] <hermes> Hey everybody, I am a little confused. I port scanned my localhost and it is displaying that cups port is open, but cups service is not running? Is there a proper way to close the port
[06:10] <fabrice_> hi i am running the command tail -v -n +12 conf/distributions.withexp > conf/distributions as sudo and am getting bash: conf/distributions: Permission denied, sudo has access there why would it do that ?
[06:11] <st47> what do you mean, 'as sudo'? You're running `sudo tail stuff > somewhere` ?
[06:11] <fabrice_> yeah
[06:11] <fabrice_> sudo tail -v -n +12 conf/distributions.withexp > conf/distributions
[06:12] <st47> sudo doesn't affect > and friends, you may have to either do su, or sudo -i, or pipe it to tee
[06:13] <st47> example being tail -v stuff | sudo tee conf/distributions
[06:13] <st47> or sudo tail -v stuff | sudo tee conf/distributions
[06:13] <st47> depending on whether the source file is readable by not-sudo
[06:13] <seclm193> How do i install flash on 64 bit ubuntu?
[06:13] <fabrice_> st47, let me try
[06:14] <nit-wit> seclm193, have you installed the restricted-extras
[06:15] <seclm193> nit-wit, that will install the 64 bit version/
[06:15] <st47> Do you still have to use the PPA for 64-bit flash or is it in restricted yet?
[06:15] <st47> This is old, but you used to have to do https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash#Flash%20for%2064-bit%20%28x86_64%29
[06:15] <nit-wit> seclm193, I am not sure there but the FF addon flash aid is another option, it probably does
[06:16] <dajxd> okay, i've been trying to figure out all sorts of ways with no luck- is there any real way to replace ubuntu with windows without external media?
[06:16] <st47> to install windows without a windows CD?
[06:16] <st47> no.
[06:16] <seclm193> ok
[06:16] <SexyBoBo> Yay got my ubuntu disk fixed never restart again :)
[06:17] <nit-wit> seclm193, you can put the windwos on a thumb.
[06:17] <nit-wit> for install
[06:17] <dajxd> st47: i've been trying to boot a live xp from a partition with the XP installer written to another partition with no luck so far- is this ridiculous?
[06:17] <fabrice_> st47, works but how do i remove the ==> conf/distributions.withexp <== line it creates at the head of the document
[06:17] <hermes> Theres a windows live cd you can make if you have another windows pc
[06:18] <nit-wit> hermes, not a legal one right
[06:18] <hermes> Im not sure it was featured on tv once like g4 or something
[06:18] <hermes> Its called BartPE
[06:19] <st47> remove the -v flag from tail to remove the ==> filename <== line
[06:19] <st47> so just do tail -n +12 filename
[06:19] <fabrice_> yeah
[06:19] <fabrice_> just figured that
[06:19] <st47> ;)

[06:32] <tommylarssen> Hey, i am wondering something. On my Ubuntu: 11.04 (desktop 64bit) i automatically get my Wireless(Dlink USB wireless) installed and working. However, with ubuntu (11.04 server) it wont work. Any ideaS+
[06:32] <Herakles_> Hi there, i get a question concerning the Software that comes with natty; how do i search for Software available on the natty-DVD, using the Softwarecenter ?
[06:33] <tommylarssen> Do you think, that the LTS will have it included in it´s server version?
[06:33] <Herakles_> How do I recognize Software that come with the DVD ?
[06:35] <dr_willis> Herakles_:  i think everything on the dvd is installed allready. the main dvd diff is the # of languages included
[06:36] <Herakles_> dr_willis, i better reather not relie on guesses....
[06:36] <Herakles_> I want to be sure..
[06:37] <dr_willis> Herakles_:  check askubuntu.com or the ubuntu homepage/forums then
[06:37] <dr_willis> the dvd and alt cd, and mini cd. all install the same os basically
[06:37] <Herakles_> wth...
[06:38] <ActionParsnip> mini cd is sweeeet
[06:38] <dr_willis> language support is the main diff i recall reading.
[06:38] <rmds> #apache
[06:38] <Herakles_> then could habve bought openSuse as well....
[06:38] <Herakles_> It comes with a lot of Software...
[06:38] <dr_willis> Herakles_:  we dont know what you mean...
[06:39] <ActionParsnip> Herakles_: wrong window maybe?
[06:39] <Herakles_> wth... what the thack...
[06:39] <dr_willis> there only a few cases where people need the dvd version
[06:39] <Xodiac13> sorry to ask a stupid question but i tried to drag and drop a file to a folder and it says permission denied now i am having to use the terminal and can someone please keep it very simple to move that file into the folder via cli
[06:39] <MeXTuX> exit
[06:39] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: who is the owner of the destination folder?
[06:39] <dr_willis> Xodiac13:  move from where to where?
[06:39] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: is it writable for your user
[06:39] <cypha> rww: thank you very much, i'm very pleased with kde
[06:40] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: is the partition the folder it is on mounted writable?
[06:40] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: im the only one who uses it and its in the filesystem lib folder i just have to add a firmware file
[06:40] <hiatus> is canonical doing any funding of icedrobot?
[06:41] <Herakles_> I want to see all Packages available on my DVD..... how do i do that ?
[06:41] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: then run:  gksudo nautilus
[06:41] <orated> wols: I tried what you suggested and cannot find the current process running in first session using ps. I remember the command used but the process is what I'm not able to identify. Is there a way to sort process by recently run application?
[06:41] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: okay thank you
[06:41] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: youor user doesn't have write access to that folder
[06:41] <Herakles_> because my Internetconnection is slow..
[06:41] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: no i just install ubuntu 11.04 64bit
[06:41] <ActionParsnip> Herakles_: you could search the DVD for *.deb and see all the packages, there will be a LOT
[06:42] <Herakles_> Do i use the Softwarecenter for that ?
[06:42] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: your user is only a user, if you use gksudo and sudo you can get admin access, use it only when needed. I suggest you copy your file then close nautilus when you are done
[06:43] <ActionParsnip> Herakles_: you will need to mount the DVD (or ISO, same thing in Linux) and you can use te search tool or in a terminal the 'find'  command can be used
[06:43] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: okay i just used it and closed it thank you very much
[06:43] <orated> Is there a way to sort process by recently run application?
[06:44] <ActionParsnip> Herakles_: if you are in the liveCD now then you can use the software sources and disable the web repos and it will force the CD to be used only
[06:44] <Herakles_> ActionParsnip, is it possible to browse the DVD-Software using the Softwarecenter...
[06:44] <Herakles_> ActionParsnip, okay sounds like a good workaround...
[06:45] <Herakles_> thank you vm
[06:45] <ActionParsnip> Herakles_: if you change the sources, then the software you see will ONLY be the ones on th DVD
[06:45] <joe__> Hello, I have a question about the SILC client

[06:46] <Herakles_> ActionParsnip, would you be so kind to give a idea of ....how do i change the sources.... ?
[06:46] <Xodiac13> well that didnt work i was able to copy the file but from what i was trying to do is install a wireless usb that i just bought and i did exactly what the guide told me to do can someone help me solve my problem i have a belkin n300 micro and all i want to do is get my wireless card working
[06:46] <joe__> when trying to run the binary i get the error " error while loading shared libraries: libsilcclient-1.1.so.2:"
[06:47] <ActionParsnip> Herakles_: edit -> software sources
[06:47] <Herakles_> ActionParsnip, k, thx
[06:47] <ActionParsnip> Herakles_: instead of asking IMMEDIATELY, try websearching just a little and youo will find answers
[06:47] <dr_willis> joe__:  could be the binary was compiled to use a different lib version then whats in ubutu
[06:48] <ActionParsnip> Herakles_: it will make you more autonymouse and teach you a little about your OS
[06:48] <joe__> is there a way a sym link could fix it?
[06:48] <ActionParsnip> joe__: was gonna suggest that ;)
[06:48] <joe__> dr_willis:^
[06:48] <dr_willis> !find libsilcclient
[06:49] <Herakles_> ActionParsnip, yeah i was just wondering weather i would have to change the software-sources manualy..
[06:49] <joe__> dr_willis Action Parsnip: how would i go about doing that? I'm somewhat rusty on sym-links
[06:50] <ActionParsnip> joe__: you may find the file in /usr/lib  or just in /lib  if you symlink the filename to the expected filename it should work
[06:50] <ActionParsnip> joe__: you'll probably have libsilcclient-1.1-3.so
[06:52] <joe__> ActionParsnip : Ok let me look around, but where do i create the sym link? In the directory next to the file or within the lib dir?
[06:53] <HackNewton> hi guys

[06:53] <HackNewton> can anyone tell me good site for ubuntu games please ?
[06:53] <ActionParsnip> joe__: sudo ln -s filename libsilcclient-1.1.so.2     make sure you are in the SAME folder as the file, change filename to the actual filename you have which is the same lib name, just the newer version
[06:53] <dr_willis> odd the binary is wanting a specific sub version like that
[06:53] <dr_willis> !games
[06:53] <ActionParsnip> HackNewton: playdeb
[06:53] <blade> hey HackNewton
[06:54] <ActionParsnip> HackNewton: you'll need the playdeb repo adding using this: http://archive.getdeb.net/install_deb/playdeb_0.3-1~getdeb1_all.deb

[06:54] <HackNewton> hi blade nice to see you

[07:04] <joe__> dr_willis: =( yeah I didnt expect this to be so difficult.
[07:04] <joe__> dr_willis ActionParsnip: Im running server edition not desktop if that makes a difference
[07:04] <dr_willis> what is silc anyway?
[07:05] <joe__> dr_willis: its secure conferencing software
[07:06] <joe__> dr_willis: I originally tried setting up the server however ran into similar issues,
[07:06] <xangua> brubelsabs: you can download a daily cd of oneiric and test it
[07:06] <Kartagis> when I telnet my vps' ssh port, I get an answer; but when I actually ssh, the command just stays without responding. any ideas?

[07:07] <brubelsabs> Yes, I just wondered if there is a PPA around to test it... (its easier and faster) and if the bugs disturbing me are fixed I could give unity a second chance..
[07:10] <Xodiac13> has anyone gotten the belkin n300 to work i followed the guide and nothing
[07:11] <fmaestre> Trying to install Ubuntu on IBM BladeCenter HS22 type:7807 but during isntallation no HD is found. Any ideas?
[07:12] <ActionParsnip> !ppa  brubelsabs
[07:12] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | brubelsabs
[07:12] <ActionParsnip> fmaestre: is the drive controller detected and/or supported?
[07:13] <Xodiac13> im trying to install my wireless usb card its a belkin n300 i followed a a guide and nothing
[07:13] <Kartagis> llutz: I'd show you the outcome, but somehow my internet connection doesn't work in the vm
[07:13] <brubelsabs> !ppa | ActionParsnip
[07:13] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: run:  sudo lshw -C network    to see the CHIP. Belkin don't make chips so knowing it's a belkin is not hugely useful
[07:14] <brubelsabs> ActionParsnip: ??? Whats your point?
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> brubelsabs: there is a hyperlink which ubottu gave, try it
[07:14] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: i just did that and im not seeing it when i do that command
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: isn't the belkin n300 a router/
[07:15] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: sorry its a belkin n300 micro
[07:15] <fmaestre> ActionParsnip: the thing is that according to Ubuntu webpage this IBM blade center is considered as supported, so they tested Ubuntu on it, but apparently during the installation process it doesn't find any HD.
[07:15] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: yeah FULL product names are useful
[07:15] <Technicus> How can I remove or change the boot splash screen?
[07:15] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: sorry
[07:15] <ActionParsnip> fmaestre: do you see the drives in the output of:  sudo fdisk -l
[07:15] <ActionParsnip> brubelsabs: see my point now?
[07:15] <brubelsabs> arghhhh... ofcourse I got from the bot the link, but WHY youre initiated it to ME? Just because of the word PPA gives you the reflex I dunno what PPA means, nor where I can search?
[07:15] <brubelsabs> ActionParsnip: no
[07:16] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: ok then run:  lsusb    you can use the 8 character hex ID to find guides
[07:16] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: ive only found one guide
[07:16] <ActionParsnip> brubelsabs: the link ubottu gave is a link to the PPA search page, You can use it to search ALL the PPAs in launchpad to see if any have the Unity version you desire for your release
[07:16] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: using the 8 character hex ID>
[07:16] <ActionParsnip> ?
[07:17] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: k
[07:17] <brubelsabs> I know that, but could it be that other repos exists similar to PPA not listed there?
[07:17] <ActionParsnip> brubelsabs: so you can use the page to search,  if a PPA exists then it will show itself. You may get many results and you can open them in turn to see what they have to offer
[07:17] <fmaestre> ActionParsnip: just a sec. lost connection with the blade center
[07:17] <brubelsabs> ActionParsnip: sorry, maybe I am a bit stressed today, I am off.. bye
[07:18] <ActionParsnip> brubelsabs: if you can find one then sure, that link is a very good place to start
[07:18] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: i used it and only found one
[07:18] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: then it may need ndisgtk + windows driver
[07:18] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: okay i will do that cause last time with a netgear wnda3100v2 i did it with that and ubuntu wouldnt even start up
[07:19] <tommylarssen> Anyone that can help me step-by-step ndiswrapper using a external drive to the server pc?
[07:20] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: thats the wonder of netgear
[07:20] <KatronixSerf> hi all, I've installed ubuntu on my laptop and also have it on my desktop how easily can I mount my /home from the desktop on my laptop while they are both on the same network?
[07:21] <joe__> ActionParsnip Dr_Willis: Thank you guys for the help! Was able to get the client to work
[07:21] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: true
[07:21] <tommylarssen> katronix: you talking about SSH into the other computer?
[07:22] <joe__> ActionParsnip Dr_Willis: after running 2 more Sym links lol. Take care guys! =)
[07:22] <tommylarssen> katronixserf: Do you want to actually _see_ the desktop? or do you only want a command based look ?
[07:22] <almoxarife> KatronixSerf: share them both, why not?
[07:22] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: it just did it
[07:22] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: went to a black screen with numbers and such
[07:22] <KatronixSerf> What I want to do is make it so that I can browse the /home from the laptop
[07:23] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: im just going to return it and can someone tell me what is a out of the box wireless usb
[07:23] <tommylarssen> KatronixSerf: What i would do, is simply SSH into ur desktop using openSSH
[07:23] <mfingier> hello, why the command /whois
[07:23] <mfingier> don't work ?
[07:23] <KatronixSerf> ie the same way you can via samba, but I figure linux has a better way if your doing it linux to linux
[07:24] <antii> mhpf
[07:24] <tommylarssen> KatronixSerf: SSH ain´t really taking much resources, that´s how i would aproach it atleast.
[07:24] <xangua> mfingier: because whatever client you use, it sucks for irc, empathy¿
[07:24] <almoxarife> KatronixSerf: samba good, samba stupid simple, and it works out of the box
[07:24] <ActionParsnip> mfingier: you need to use:   /whois username
[07:24] <antii> im getting some ugly static sounds from my headphones while im not doing anything, using ubuntu 11.04
[07:24] <ActionParsnip> !hcl | Xodiac13
[07:24] <xangua> or maybe what ActionParsnip said mfingier :P
[07:25] <tommylarssen> Anyone good with Ndiswrapper?:p
[07:25] <Technicus> What does the application usplash do, and how come when I flag it for install it requires uninstallation of a bunch of other programs?
[07:25] <almoxarife> tommylarssen: you good with windows?
[07:25] <ActionParsnip> antii: what is the output of:wget -O alsa-info.sh http://alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ./alsa-info.sh
[07:25] <KatronixSerf> also can anyone point me in the right direction for vnc? I have it installed on the desktop but my laptop keeps telling me I'm refused
[07:25] <tommylarssen> almoxarife: da best, mon.
[07:25] <tommylarssen> almoxarife: Wich is allso the reason why i fail at ndiswrapper;p
[07:25] <ActionParsnip> tommylarssen: ndisgtk is a gui to ndiswrapper, so no need to be good with ndiswrapper now :)
[07:26] <fylefou> hello all
[07:26] <ActionParsnip> tommylarssen: you sure there is no native driver for your network device?
[07:26] <almoxarife> tommylarssen: I was too when I first got educated here, this is what you do, ndiswrapper has a gui, gui makes life4 easy,
[07:26] <ptl1977> anyone able to assist with problem authenticating using domain user accounts after Ubuntu svr has been joined to domain?
[07:26] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: thats for desktops and laptops is there a site i can go to to see tested usb wireless devices that work out of the box
[07:26] <tommylarssen> ActionParnsnip: that´s the funny part, on 11.04 desktop, there is. On 11.04 server, nope:P
[07:26] <dr_willis> KatronixSerf:  what did you install exactly for vnc?
[07:26] <wildbat> KatronixSerf: check if you have started the vnc local only and firewall setting
[07:26] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: no it's really not, it has all manner of hardware
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> tommylarssen: ahhh then that's different :)
[07:27] <tommylarssen> ActionParnsnip: Think im gonna have a look at the 10.04 server, maybe that has it included as it is a LTS
[07:27] <tommylarssen> ActionParsnip: However, i have no idea if that makes a difference or not.:P
[07:27] <almoxarife> tommylarssen: the process is simple actually, ndis needs the .inf file for the thing you got, ndis must locate it, so make it easy on it, the rest is cake
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: try: http://linuxhcl.com/browse/search+wireless-networking?category=25
[07:28] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: my computer isnt one you just buy from the store and i just clicked on one of the links
[07:28] <thomi> Hi. I have an odd issue whereby in LibreOffice writer the double quote key gets turned into an odd symbol that looks a bit like '<<', but it doesn't happen in any other applications. Any ideas?
[07:28] <almoxarife> not terribly geeky but effective too
[07:28] <tommylarssen> almoxarife: So seeing as i will be using a external drive, il just cd to the dir, and mv it to a location in the home folder?
[07:28] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: thanks
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> tommylarssen: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: does goole not work on your computer?
[07:28] <antii> ActionParsnip: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=e03c17c4fe0ddb00b38fda767726d5eb32490e48
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> Xodiac13: all I am doing is websearching and finding all kinds of goodies
[07:29] <almoxarife> tommylarssen: I try to do all that complicated stuff in nautilus, but yes, cd and mv , just point ndisgui to the file
[07:29] <KatronixSerf> Does turning on "Allow other users to view your desktop" on "Remote Desktop Preferences"  start a vnc server?
[07:29] <Maestr0> I was trying some effect plugins and after some problems (Unity malfunctioning and such) I've reverted to defaults, only now, when I boot up my computer, Unity doesn't seem to start correctly, I have to go to CTRL-ALT-F1 and do a "Unity --reset"... how can I find the exact source of the problem and fix it?
[07:29] <dr_willis> KatronixSerf:  it should. but is this on a local lan or over the internet?
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> antii: so the sound is crackly?
[07:30] <Xodiac13> ActionParsnip: yeah i just kind of tired of trying to get wireless usb devices to work with ubuntu 11.04 64bit
[07:30] <ActionParsnip> antii: and only through headphones?
[07:30] <antii> ActionParsnip: yes, but not so high in volume, i dont notice if i have my music high
[07:30] <almoxarife> tommylarssen: btw, I got a belkin usb wifi installed that way, but that won't mean it that works when you are done :)
[07:31] <ActionParsnip> antii: if you mute the inbuild speaker, is it better?
[07:31] <almoxarife> KatronixSerf: yes, unless you are firewalled elsewhere
[07:31] <tommylarssen> Almoxarife: How will ndiswrapper (seeing as it wont be running as native, drivers that is) affect the mbps output?
[07:31] <ActionParsnip> antii: possibly related: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/785830
[07:32] <Maestr0> how can I see the log why unity won't start on boot?
[07:32] <almoxarife> tommylarssen: what???????????????????????????????????????/ you doing this for fun? no clue what you said
[07:33] <KatronixSerf> almoxarife, is it normal that when you start it you should get a terminal window that is forced open?
[07:33] <almoxarife> KatronixSerf: 'it'? define it
[07:34] <tommylarssen> almoxarife: Sorry, havent slept yet. uhm, what i ment was basicly; Will the mbps speed (of the usb wireless) be any diminished ? will there be any loss of mbps?:p
[07:34] <tommylarssen> almoxarife: Gonna stop typing now, apparently can´t explain myself anymore xd
[07:34] <Colin969> Hello
[07:34] <almoxarife> tommylarssen: at this point you better be happy if it works, save the worrying for post install
[07:35] <KatronixSerf> almoxarife, turning on "Allow other users to view your desktop"
[07:35] <Colin969> Would using LinuxLive USB Creator work with An External harddrive, without messing up the Volume Label?
[07:35] <nit-wit> Colin969, could you expalin that better a external to use a a installer?
[07:35] <nit-wit> *as a
[07:36] <almoxarife> KatronixSerf: a window would open showing you an ip the other person might need to locate the machine, you mean that?
[07:36] <Colin969> nit-wit I need to redo Ubuntu on my Netbook but my USB wont seem to work
[07:36] <nit-wit> Colin969, do you know the key prompt for a out og=f the bios boot from menu>
[07:37] <nit-wit> og=f  is actually of
[07:37] <KatronixSerf> almoxarife, no, as soon as I check the box a Terminal window opens that so far shows nothing, if I close it it comes up again only way to get rid of it is to uncheck the box
[07:37] <Colin969> nit-wit Its seems to keep making the USB corrupt
[07:37] <nit-wit> Colin969, ?
[07:37] <Colin969> nit-wit Its on my Aspire One Netbook, using a 4GB Maxwell Stick
[07:38] <nit-wit> Colin969, when you pwer on hit f12 and see if you ge a boot from menu
[07:38] <Colin969> nit-wit You know the line - SYSLINUX 4.04 EDD Copyright (C) ...
[07:38] <Colin969> nit-wit keeps staying at that
[07:38] <nit-wit> Colin969, I have seen that use unetbootin to load it again, if you haven't yet.
[07:39] <Colin969> nit-wit, Im using the 10.10 Netbook Version
[07:39] <nit-wit> Colin969, wern't you trying to install that to upgrade higher
[07:39] <Colin969> nit-wit Ive tried Unetbootin, Universal USB Creator, LinuxLive Key Creator too
[07:39] <almoxarife> KatronixSerf: are you having network issues in general?
[07:39] <Colin969> nit-wit Nope, i effed my Linux display up and now Grub had a fit.
[07:39] <wildbat> Colin969: you have to rebuild it then ~ make sure your ISO is good check with md5 yet?
[07:40] <nit-wit> Colin969, is that 10.10 a usb image or a ISO?
[07:40] <Colin969> wildbat, I tried 3 different downloads
[07:40] <KatronixSerf> almoxarife, no just with vnc server it seems
[07:40] <Colin969> nit-wit They are all ISOs?
[07:40] <Colin969> nit-wit USB Image?
[07:40] <nit-wit> Colin969, so what is your goal which distro?
[07:41] <almoxarife> KatronixSerf: I duplicated the key strokes, I didn't get a terminal window
[07:41] <Colin969> nit-wit Only <11 seems to install
[07:41] <nit-wit> Colin969, the netbook versions had a image that was loaded with another loader at times
[07:41] <Colin969> nit-wit and my USB wont work now
[07:41] <Colin969> nit-wit Huh?
[07:41] <Colin969> nit-wit But would applying the ISO to my External HardDrive allow me to boot from that?
[07:42] <Colin969> nit-wit and not mess with Seagate stuff?
[07:42] <wildbat> Colin969: you have download 100times but none match the md5, only md5 can tell if you have a good copy .
[07:42] <KatronixSerf> almoxarife, ok, going by http://pastebin.com/1ueY8uv2 nothing should be blocked right?
[07:42] <Colin969> wildbat, How do I even check the ,MD5?
[07:42] <wildbat> !md5sum  | Colin969
[07:44] <almoxarife> KatronixSerf: I have been playing with snort and fwsnort for 2 days and you show me iptables :) ................. I was trying to say before that the issue with the terminal window sounds odd, should not have happened
[07:45] <emachines> hello
[07:45] <nit-wit> Colin969, possibly but I wouldn't mess around that way
[07:45] <almoxarife> KatronixSerf: can you re-install remote-desktop?
[07:45] <jnsl_> I want to add a script to update-rc.d that should "stop" on shutdown/boot.. however im getting the error: "update-rc.d: error: start|stop arguments not terminated by ".""
[07:46] <KatronixSerf> almoxarife, can try it anyways
[07:46] <Colin969> wildbat, My MD5 Sum is...what?
[07:46] <almoxarife> KatronixSerf: btw, there is another option, hamachi for linux, worked for me
[07:47] <Colin969> wildbat Oh just the ISO
[07:47] <KatronixSerf> almoxarife, but its only a server for linux right? no client?
[07:47] <llutz_> jnsl_: add A "." single DOT  to the end of your commandline
[07:47] <almoxarife> is there a conf setting that must be set to allow iptables logging?
[07:48] <almoxarife> KatronixSerf: nope, both
[07:48] <jnsl_> llutz_ ahh i see >.< thanks!
[07:48] <Kartagis> llutz_: this is what I get in verbose ---> http://pastebin.com/GycTu48Y
[07:48] <llutz_> Kartagis: sry no www here
[07:49] <Kartagis> llutz_: how am I supposed to show you then?
[07:49] <Colin969> nit-wit i put the MD5 Exe in my System32, but the command isnt working in console
[07:49] <llutz_> Kartagis: have you checked the output for errors/warnings?
[07:50] <nit-wit> Colin969, I don't know what your talking about.
[07:50] <Colin969> nit-wit Wildbat told me to check through MD5
[07:50] <Kartagis> llutz_: it says Not a RSA1 key file /home/mtozses/.ssh/id_rsa.
[07:50] <Kartagis> should I delete it?
[07:51] <llutz_> Kartagis: create a new one, better to backup the old
[07:52] <karel_ff> Hi. I'm trying to find out how/when the mysql service gets started when I do apt-get install mysql
[07:52] <KatronixSerf> almoxarife, do you use the Free VPN software? or what exactly?
[07:52] <Colin969> wildbat You Here?
[07:52] <wildbat> Colin969: yes?
[07:52] <karel_ff> When looking at the debian package, it's quite clear: the postinst script just does update-rc.d mysql defaults .... at the end
[07:52] <Kartagis> llutz_: I removed the directory, and ssh'd again, no luck
[07:53] <JackofCoins> ubuntu is debian based right?
[07:53] <Colin969> wildbat - MD5 isnt becoming a command.... Its in \system32
[07:53] <nit-wit> Colin969, the md5sum?
[07:53] <karel_ff> But I can't find where this happens in the ubuntu package's postinst script
[07:53] <Kartagis> llutz_: it says SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT sent as the last line
[07:53] <Kartagis> JackofCoins: yes
[07:53] <Colin969> nit-wit the MD5 Command
[07:53] <almoxarife> KatronixSerf: I used hamachi for a while helping my mother out, and yes, I didn't pay for anything with hamachi
[07:53] <Mandrew> anyone located in america?
[07:54] <llutz_> Kartagis: your ssh-server is configured only to allow rsa1-keys, no password auth?
[07:54] <Colin969> wildbat Oh, nvm
[07:54] <Colin969> nit-wit Oh, Nvm
[07:54] <nit-wit> Colin969, I'm not familiar with that.
[07:54] <Kartagis> llutz_: I don't recall doing such a thing. besides, other people can ssh in
[07:55] <almoxarife> KatronixSerf: although the bigger problem I think you have is a crippled remote-desktop, that could mean other issues also exist
[07:57] <KatronixSerf> almoxarife, well I will try to re-install it first then
[08:01] <Colin969> Do MD5checksums take a while?
[08:01] <llutz_> Kartagis: i have no clue what the reason might be. sorry
[08:01] <wildbat> Colin969: yes
[08:01] <Colin969> wildbat - how long on average?
[08:02] <wildbat> Colin969: won't be too long thou ~ it read the whole file once. depends on your drive speed.
[08:02] <llutz_> Kartagis: its a ssh-server inside your LAN you try to connect to?
[08:03] <Kartagis> llutz_: no, it's outside, but strangely enough, I can't ssh to another ssh-server inside our LAN
[08:03] <JackofCoins> Are kernels code written in assembly?
[08:04] <Kartagis> llutz_: long story short, I can't ssh at all
[08:04] <Kartagis> JackofCoins: C
[08:04] <llutz_> Kartagis: really odd thing, ssh is known "just to work" :)
[08:04] <llutz_> Kartagis: "mv ~/.ssh ~/.ssh-old" and try then again
[08:05] <KatronixSerf> almoxarife, can't seem to re-install it, but my desktop can connect to the laptop, although the screen I see on the desktop doesn't update as well as the screen on the laptop does very odd
[08:05] <Kartagis> llutz_: I removed the directory and tried, no dice
[08:06] <Tigerboy> turned on compiz and the max/min and close buttons disappear from the windows frames?
[08:06] <llutz_> Kartagis: whats the MTU-value of your network-iface (ifconfig tells you)?
[08:07] <almoxarife> KatronixSerf: you are at the mercy of a lot of variables, using wifi?
[08:08] <KatronixSerf> almoxarife, yes using wifi
[08:08] <Kartagis> llutz_: 1500
[08:09] <Colin969> wildbat - Damn Checksum failed
[08:09] <Kartagis> hmm, I think it was eth0 yesterday, now I see eth1
[08:09] <Colin969> wildbat - So i just redownload till its right?
[08:09] <llutz_> Kartagis: just a guess " sudo ifconfig eth1 mtu 1492"
[08:10] <wildbat> Colin969: yup
[08:10] <Colin969> wildbat - ...Ugh
[08:10] <wildbat> Colin969: i sugguest do it with torrent
[08:10] <kripkorn> hello
[08:11] <Kartagis> llutz_: do I restart anything?
[08:11] <wildbat> Colin969: torrent got hash check built in ~ so when it is done ~ 99% you will have a good copy
[08:11] <llutz_> Kartagis: nope, just ssh again
[08:11] <Colin969> Wildbat - My torrents are throttled.
[08:11] <kripkorn> i need help
[08:11] <Colin969> wildbat - To like 50kb/s
[08:11] <Kartagis> llutz_: no dice :(
[08:12] <kripkorn> i juz install ubuntu and it seem my font so sluggish
[08:12] <Colin969> wildbat - Meh, have a link? May as well spend more time.
[08:12] <Kartagis> I wonder why it keeps hanging
[08:12] <Colin969> wildbat - Itll end in less problems i suppose
[08:12] <wildbat> Colin969: Encrypted it . use utorrent. force encryption and bep22 setting see if you can bypass the limit
[08:12] <llutz_> Kartagis: i thought i had a similar problem some times ago, but that was caused by MTU-setting. sry no idea.
[08:13] <Colin969> wildbat - Using Legacy Forced Off (or on, cant remember) and some random ports it works faster for like 3 mins
[08:13] <Colin969> wildbat - So, ill try, but you got a torrent link?
[08:13] <wildbat> Colin969: http://releases.ubuntu.com/
[08:14] <Tigerboy> utorrent is better than transmission?
[08:14] <Colin969> wildbat - So ubuntu-10.04-netbook-i386.iso.torrent  ?
[08:14] <Kartagis> llutz_: indeed it was caused by MTU setting. I dropped it down to 576 and voila!
[08:14] <wildbat> Colin969: yes OT: you ISP is cheapass :< change it
[08:14] <Kartagis> llutz_: thanks for the point tho
[08:15] <Colin969> wildbat - We wanna change to Virgin, they still throttle but we get a speed boost elsewhere and can still get 300kb/s torrenting
[08:15] <llutz_> Kartagis: 576... quite small. but ok
[08:15] <chomping> guys, I'm sorry for this, but I'm not in my ubuntu machine. Currently, does ubuntu let you retrieve a file by searching a string or content from a file thru an application? Just like in Snow leopard, I can search from  content of a file, for example, "category and order" and it will display the files found having that content in finder.
[08:15] <Kartagis> llutz_: 576 is on my host OS
[08:16] <chomping> I know I can do this in terminal, but what I means from an application having UI.

[08:22] <folivora> Gday. What is the best way to force external usb-drives to use curret /dev/*, since now they are changing in every boot.
[08:23] <iceroot> folivora: uuid
[08:24] <iceroot> folivora: write the uuid into fstab and mount them, then it doesnt matter if /dev/sdX is changing
[08:26] <folivora> hmm, then thing is those are back-up drives, cryted with dm-crypt. I think that this can cause some problems ?

[08:50] <AndroUser2> Hello all.while trying to install kubuntu,I get grub rescue prompt after it said install complete.I also have windows on this hd.can someone please help me.am using my phone..pls bear my late responses.thanks.
[08:52] <wildbat> !grub | AndroUser2 reinstall grub should fix it.
[08:53] <AndroUser2> thanks..let me have a look
[08:59] <rabbit11> how to partition the HDD while installing ubuntu ? (Need different drives for storage like windows)
[08:59] <nit-wit> afasfasf, run ths script and pastebin the generated text file. http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/
[09:01] <wildbat> rabbit11: there is manual mode while asking you which disk to use
[09:01] <rabbit11> wildbat: yeah, i am just a bit confused with this /, /root, /home ....
[09:02] <rabbit11> wildbat: how do i do it, where should i install it. any manual to know about this structure ?
[09:02] <wildbat> !manual | rabbit11
[09:03] <Sidewinder1> rabbit11, This link should answer all of your questions: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/index.php
[09:03] <progzer> Excuse me, I'm looking for 'acpidump
[09:03] <rabbit11> wildbat: i am planning to have C: (windows) 10 gb and D: (Others) 50 GB, rest in 500 GB i will use it for 11.04, now i just need to know how i can divide this 440GB into a, b, c etc...
[09:03] <progzer> (Booting off the 10.10 Live disk)
[09:04] <progzer> I'd like to get a copy of my laptop
[09:04] <progzer> 's DSDT
[09:04] <wildbat> rabbit11: i will say 15-30GB for / , the rest /home.
[09:05] <dyd> is there a way to set  a password on a link?
[09:05] <dyd> i have a link on the desktop, and i want it to ask pass whenever you open it
[09:05] <rabbit11> wildbat: what about /dev ?
[09:06] <wildbat> rabbit11: also ramsize partition for swap ( but you can just leave it if you have enough RAM for all your tasks)
[09:06] <wildbat> rabbit11: you don't need partition for that. in fact a single partition / will get ubuntu up
[09:07] <rabbit11> wildbat: i got 2GB DDR RAM.... but still i am a bit confused on this /, /swap /root /home /dev whats all this ? is / means C: equal to windows ? all program files loading in / ?
[09:08] <llutz_> !fhs > rabbit11  maybe this brings some light into your darkness

[09:16] <stephan_> nothing blocked anymore after rfkill list now
[09:16] <rabbit11> wildbat: during installation (partition page) i don't see all these 17 directories at all....
[09:16] <stephan_> ah it works
[09:16] <KM0201> stephan_: whats your wireless device?
[09:16] <oCean> stephan_: now you should see wireless networks when running   iwlist scan
[09:16] <KM0201> ok.. :)
[09:16] <wildbat> rabbit11: it really depends on the web-server setup
[09:16] <nit-wit> stephan_, sorry about that,
[09:17] <vivid> rabbit11, /var/www is usually standard

[09:20] <r000t_nb> Yes hello. I am upgrading hard drives. Can I copy the contents of a 160GB drive to a 500, in a ~480GB partition? Also, can I have my swap space encrypted?
[09:21] <warez-user> hi
[09:21] <r000t_nb> I am booting the machine in question to a liveCD now
[09:21] <rabbit11> wildbat: ok, so say i / will be 50 GB and swap may be 2 GB (total 4 GB RAM) and rest /home .... ? am i right...?
[09:21] <DistroJockey> rabbit11: You really only need 2 partitions in your case I think. A 4GB swap partition and everything else goes in  /  partition (/home will be set up inside the / partition and will have Documents, Music, etc.)
[09:21] <upp> hello how can i solve this packet instalation problem? pastebin.com/9i74uSG3
[09:21] <Incarus6> upp, I repeat: try to kill the postgres process

[09:22] <upp> ok thanks Incarus

[09:23] <wildbat> rabbit11: that's y i pick 15-30GB ~ i like more space in /home for my mp3;p
[09:24] <upp> Incarus6: i don't have any process with this name
[09:24] <wildbat> rabbit11: but it is your call 50GB won't hurt ;) right?
[09:25] <rabbit11> wildbat: ok, i think i am ok now, hope for a 100% perfect migration from 8.04 to 11.04 ..... :) all the best to me. still need to take lot of backups .... ;)
[09:25] <Incarus6> upp, is that an ubuntu issue or a backtrack issue?
[09:25] <rabbit11> wildbat: won't hurt at all, now i got 250 for lin and 250 for win, and all my music is in FAT system
[09:26] <dc5ala> upp: i suppose this is a broken package. Where you got that from?

[09:26] <rabbit11> there is no 11.04 manual .....
[09:26] <GOMI> my ubuntu doesnt crash anymore ^_^) only with playing flash it does
[09:26] <GOMI> normally it would crash 15 times a day
[09:27] <upp> dc5ala: from package, so apt-get install framework3

[09:27] <rabbit11> wildbat: yeah, ‌ i am not happy with any player in linux, hopefully 11.04 has got something like winamp ....
[09:27] <Incarus6> GOMI, the flash player uses an experimental hardware acceleration which causes the crashs. Disable the acceleration or install the latest version 11 Beta 1 ;)
[09:27] <GOMI> now i can work normally
[09:27] <oCean> upp: are you running backtrack?
[09:28] <upp> yes

[09:36] <abhinav_singh> cool rabbit11 enjoy the travelling
[09:36] <wildbat> a514: most likely you have eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces , remove them and reboot should fix it .

[09:46] <Zajjko> Anyone familiar with LVM? Trying to install ubuntu 11.04 server to a pre-existing LVM
[09:46] <Jragon> How do I install .rpm files?
[09:47] <VxQe> Zajjko, and?
[09:47] <Zajjko> kripkorn: VLC
[09:47] <simo_> jragon please prefer deb files or convert rpm using alien
[09:47] <oCean> Jragon: rpm is not supported packagemanagement
[09:47] <hashitish> sgoll : google im sure
[09:47] <Zajjko> VxQe: Sorry, the installer isn't recognizing the old VG as it seems
[09:47] <oCean> hashitish: don't suggest to google
[09:47] <VxQe> Right.
[09:48] <kripkorn> Zajiko : thank you.
[09:48] <VxQe> Ubuntu doesn't come with LVM on the disk, sadly.
[09:48] <VxQe> At least from what I remember.
[09:48] <hashitish> the only reason i suggested it was because i do believe i was reading something about it yesterday so the information is available im just making it know to the guy
[09:48] <Zajjko> VxQe: From what I can tell it needs to clear the partition table on the disk before the built in LVM can handle the disk
[09:48] <VxQe> For the desktop version, you have to boot from LiveCD and install LVM package so that you can install to LVM
[09:49] <VxQe> obviously that wont work with server version because there's no live cd
[09:49] <VxQe> I can't think of any way other than a painful chroot to do it.
[09:49] <VxQe> TBH
[09:49] <Zajjko> There are options for using the entire disk and setting up LVM, and also to manually setup the partitions
[09:50] <Zajjko> However, whatever I choose I end up at a dead end where the installer tells me the next step is to clean out the partition-table
[09:50] <oCean> hashitish: don't do it again in this channel please.
[09:50] <hashitish> oCean: ok boss, no harm meant
[09:51] <VxQe> :/
[09:51] <VxQe> Honestly not sure sorry.
[09:51] <Zajjko> VxQe: What really bugs me is that I've done it before. That was on 9.10 or 10.04, though
[09:51] <Zajjko> VxQe: No probs. Thanks anyway
[09:51] <VxQe> I usually use lvm but not with ubuntu. :\
[09:52] <Zajjko> VxQe: Im beginning to regret it : )
[09:52] <VxQe> Psh.
[09:52] <VxQe> If you stick with fedora/rhel/centos and that mob, it is a lot better supported than in ubuntu.
[09:52] <VxQe> Unfortuntely.
[09:52] <Zajjko> VxQe: Wht wuld you reckon using a different dist? Could it have any adverse effects on the pre-existing LVM?
[09:52] <julian_> hi. i want to beep my pc speaker but cannot. using the program 'beep' and with the pcspkr module loaded, the pc speaker levels up and unmuted in alsamixer, i hear no sound.
[09:52] <julian_> ideas?
[09:53] <VxQe> Not in my experience.
[09:53] <VxQe> You can have half a dozen different distros living on the same LVM
[09:53] <VxQe> IF you do it right
[09:53] <VxQe> lol
[09:53] <Zajjko> VxQe: IF being the emphazised word
[09:53] <VxQe> Yeah
[09:53] <VxQe> But if you just want one OS
[09:53] <VxQe> It's simple
[09:54] <VxQe> load up centos or something and see if it recognizes your lvm partitions. :/
[09:54] <Zajjko> In your experience, what would you say is closest to ubuntu server in terms of administration?
[09:54] <GOMI> Incarus6, thnx flash worked ^_^)
[09:54] <Incarus6> GOMI, you're welcome ;)
[09:54] <Sidewinder1> !sound | julian_
[09:56] <VxQe> ~_~
[09:56] <VxQe> No idea.
[09:56] <VxQe> Sorry Zajjko
[09:56] <oCean> Zajjko: this channel is not meant for specific ubuntu support, not discussion on various distributions.
[09:56] <oCean> err
[09:56] <VxQe> Also that.
[09:56] <oCean> is meant for specific ubuntu support
[09:56] <hashitish> sgoll: http://goo.gl/NBaN
[09:57] <Zajjko> oCean: True, sorry
[09:57] <julian_> Sidewinder1: thanks, i've gone through those first two links in entirety.
[09:57] <yellowgto> Hello
[09:57] <julian_> Sidewinder1: i'm starting to wonder whether alsa is reporting a functional pc speaker that doesn't, in fact, exist.
[09:58] <yellowgto> Is there a event viewer type program in ubuntu
[09:58] <julian_> Sidewinder1: i've never heard a beep on boot, for instance.
[09:58] <yellowgto> I've had PCs that beeped on boot
[10:00] <julian_> yellowgto: we all have.. this laptop doesn't.
[10:00] <Sidewinder1> julian_, Trouble-shooting sound problems is certainly frustrating; it could be so many things. :-(
[10:00] <yellowgto> Gotcha ;-)
[10:01] <julian_> Sidewinder1: indeed. sound itself works very well, just no system beep..
[10:01] <Sidewinder1> julian_, I know that doesn't really help, sorry.
[10:01] <tomek_> anyone uses graphics programs for linux here?
[10:01] <Warrior`> I accidentaly deleted a C programming file 'oscore.c' which i created how to recover it?
[10:02] <julian_> Sidewinder1: trouble shooting used to be much more difficult back on 2.2 kernels in the late 90's. i've given it days..
[10:02] <KM0201> Warrior`: restore it from your backup of course
[10:02] <Sidewinder1> julian_, If all the rest of the sound works, music, movies, flash, I wouldn't worry about the "boot sounds.
[10:02] <Warrior`> where is the backup?
[10:02] <julian_> Sidewinder1: i'd like to use it for a headless networking related project i'm currently developing.
[10:04] <Warrior`> I didn't created any backup....
[10:04] <KM0201> Warrior`: whereever you stored it of course
[10:04] <a514> Wildbat thanks man! That worked!! i own you a Beer!
[10:04] <Warrior`> i deleted it KMO201
[10:04] <KM0201> ..
[10:04] <julian_> Warrior`: then i'm afraid the file is gone, short of attempting various recovery utilities..
[10:05] <a514> Wildbat you are a genius!!!
[10:06] <raven> 10.04+tb7300 tablet:pen freezes after every touch/click - any idea why and how to solve?
[10:06] <wildbat> a514: lol~ i am just newbie~ but i would like a beer ;p
[10:07] <a514> wildbat ok paypal on 1st August!
[10:07] <a514> wildbat i used gksudo gedit interfaces
[10:08] <Warrior`> does scalpel configuration file has an option to recover text files like c source code
[10:08] <wildbat> a514: lol~
[10:08] <julian_> Warrior`: you could look into PhotoRec for that.
[10:09] <julian_> Warrior`: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/File_Formats_Recovered_By_PhotoRec
[10:09] <raven> 10.04+tb7300 tablet:pen freezes after every touch/click - any idea why and how to solve?
[10:11] <a514> raven i can buy you a touchscreen stylus pen for $2 at dollarama and send it
[10:11] <sgo11> I found one way to automount non-home ecryptfs directory at boot: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/ecryptfs.html   but the way will store password in plaintext format which is unsecure. my ecryptfs dir has the same password as the user login. how to automount the dir at login process? thanks.
[10:12] <julian_> sgo11: call a script at the appropriate run level?
[10:13] <raven> 10.04+tb7300 tablet:pen freezes after every touch/click - any idea why and how to solve?
[10:13] <sgo11> julian_, in that way, I think I need to store my password in plaintext. how to ask OS to use my user's password to mount the ecryptfs dir?
[10:14] <julian_> sgo11: i would define it in /etc/sudoers, make it passwordless
[10:14] <sgo11> it should be able to achieve. that is how encrypted home/private dir (set up during ubuntu install) works.
[10:16] <sgo11> julian_, sorry, I don't really get it. ecryptfs needs a password to decrypt the dir. how to make passwordless?
[10:17] <julian_> sgo11: yes, i don't know how to resolve this issue for encrypted partitions.
[10:18] <sgo11> julian_, ok. thanks anyway. ^_^
[10:18] <julian_> sgo11: can you not: sudo mount -t ecryptfs /home/user_name/.Private /home/user_name/Private ?
[10:19] <sgo11> you can do that, but it will ask you password. what I want is to automount during login process.
[10:20] <sgo11> julian_, .
[10:20] <julian_> sgo11: sorry, i posted the wrong thing. i meant something like sudo mount ./secret ./secret -o key=passphrase,ecryptfs_cipher=aes,
[10:20] <julian_> ecryptfs_key_bytes=16,ecryptfs_passthrough=no,
[10:20] <julian_> .. ecryptfs_enable_filename_crypto=yes
[10:20] <julian_> mount takes the 'key=' option
[10:21] <julian_> (with -o)
[10:21] <sgo11> julian_, I think you don't know how ecryptfs works...
[10:22] <julian_> sgo11: well i have an encrypted partition here and i can mount it without typing the passphrase.
[10:22] <sgo11> julian_, key=passphrase means using passphrase as the key. that's all.
[10:22] <sgo11> julian_, well. how did you do that? the encrypted home directory created during ubuntu installation?
[10:22] <julian_> sgo11: right, i see. i don't know much about encryptfs, no.
[10:22] <peter_felching> Hi. I installed gnome 3 on bare bone ubuntu. I have some problems with touchpad configuration. The tapping works only on gdm screen, useless in session. I attached the picture of gdm's section of touchpad, maybe this will help.
[10:23] <peter_felching> http://img803.imageshack.us/img803/8597/touchpad.png
[10:23] <julian_> sgo11: yes. my /home is encrypted. i can unmount it and remount it for some reason, with mount -o,remount
[10:23] <chrisg4u> Hi people, I need some help please :)
[10:24] <Sidewinder1> !gnome3 > peter_felching
[10:24] <julian_> sgo11: no idea how/why this works!
[10:25] <chrisg4u> does anyone know how I can set thunderbird as my default mail client
[10:25] <chrisg4u> I set it in preferred apps as my mail client
[10:25] <julian_> sgo11: touch ~/.ecryptfs/auto-mount looks interesting..
[10:25] <peter_felching> Sidewinder1, I expect for this to happen with every wm in the repo, so it's not only GNOME 3 related.
[10:25] <chrisg4u> and even uninstalled evolution but it wont open
[10:25] <sgo11> julian_, /home is OK.  my question is auto-mount non-home/private directory created by my own. /home will be taken care by ecryptfs-mount-private. ubuntu also does many things in background to achieve auto-mount which I don't know.
[10:25] <julian_> sgo11: right..
[10:26] <sajimon> hello, does anyone using ubuntu 10? i need a little assistance
[10:26] <julian_> sgo11: is there an .encryptfs in the top level of your encrypted partition?
[10:27] <sgo11> julian_, no.
[10:27] <julian_> sgo11: if not, try creating it and creating an empty file .encryptfs/auto-mount
[10:27] <raven> 10.04+tb7300 tablet:pen freezes after every touch/click - any idea why and how to solve?
[10:28] <livingdaylight> Hi, want to install adobe air on my x64bit system. But not compatible. Anyone know the workaround?
[10:28] <raven> how to connect to a machine via VNC to the login screen?
[10:28] <julian_> sgo11: again, i have no idea. i only note that when i remove ~/.encryptfs/auto-mount my partition is not mounted automagically.
[10:28] <sgo11> julian_, is that an empty file?
[10:28] <julian_> sgo11: yes
[10:29] <rmds> raven let the machine came to login screen when it idles
[10:29] <rmds> and then
[10:29] <sgo11> julian_, not sure how it works. empty file auto-mount will let ecryptfs use user's password to mount? I think there must be some more setup...
[10:29] <rmds> login
[10:29] <rmds> via vnc
[10:29] <julian_> sgo11: actually my path is really bizarre here: /home/.ecryptfs/julian/.ecryptfs/
[10:30] <julian_> sgo11: 'auto-mount' is in there..
[10:30] <raven> rmds, the machine has to be secure. any way to login it graphically (tty7) temporary via ssh to login via vnc then?
[10:31] <julian_> sgo11: reading the specification, it looks like that's how auto-mounting is done.
[10:31] <rmds> ssh wil be better ..
[10:31] <sgo11> julian_, yeah, I saw that before. I used to using encrypted home. but I found problems after fresh install of ubuntu. Now, I choose to use my own encrypted ecryptfs dir. that will be more safe since I have no idea what ubuntu does for /home in the background. feel unsafe.
[10:32] <rmds> vnc comes to use only when you have something to do in GUI..
[10:32] <raven> rmds any way to login it graphically (tty7) temporary via ssh to login via vnc then?
[10:32] <julian_> sgo11: this guy got it working in the same way. this is what you want.. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=72985
[10:33] <julian_> sgo11: he used ~/.bash_profile to mount it on login. smarter than ~/.xsession if you need to log in headless.
[10:33] <peter_felching> Thanks for nothing again ubuntu community, the problem was solved by adding TapButton1=x values using synclient.
[10:33] <sgo11> julian_, let me see.....
[10:33] <rafi> hi guys i have a problem with wireless i downloaded 11.04  it does not see the wireless
[10:34] <italoxp> Wouldn't be better to mount by rc.local?
[10:34] <italoxp> rafi, do you know the model of your wireless card?
[10:34] <julian_> italoxp: he wants it mounted on login.
[10:34] <rmds> yes raven you can do it with the help of ssh tunnel
[10:34] <julian_> s/he/she
[10:34] <italoxp> julian_, for one user, not for the entire system?
[10:34] <rafi> yes tp-link
[10:35] <italoxp> rafi, do you know the Model?
[10:35] <julian_> ugh s/he/she\//he
[10:35] <raven> rmds,  could you give me a hint how that would look like?
[10:35] <julian_> italoxp: i think so, yes. ask sgo11
[10:35] <rafi> i dont know
[10:35] <italoxp> rafi, is it USB?
[10:35] <rmds> you need to make a ssh tunnel with the server and client
[10:36] <raven> rmds, how?
[10:36] <rafi> no its  tp-link modem
[10:36] <julian_> rafi: modem?
[10:36] <rafi> yes
[10:36] <italoxp> rafi, I'm talking about the wireless card
[10:36] <italoxp> In your PC
[10:36] <italoxp> Is it a PC or a notebook?
[10:36] <italoxp> !paste test
[10:36] <rafi> notebook
[10:36] <italoxp> Oh, right
[10:36] <italoxp> !paste
[10:36] <rmds> ssh username@ip -L5901:localhost:5901
[10:37] <sgo11> italoxp, how to mount by rc.local without given the password? the problem is I don't know how to mount it by using my user login's password so that the encrypted dir can be mounted during login process.
[10:37] <italoxp> sgo11, I really dunno anything bout encrypted volumes =/
[10:37] <julian_> italoxp: i think sgo11 needs to touch .ecryptfs/auto-mount in the top level of the partition he wants to mount.
[10:37] <rmds> then connect to 127.0.0.1:5901 from you vncviewer from client
[10:37] <raven> rmds, ok tnx i'll try that
[10:37] <italoxp> rafi, run lspci on a terminal and paste it to us
[10:37] <sgo11> italoxp, ok. my problem is ecryptfs...
[10:37] <italoxp> !paste | rafi
[10:38] <sgo11> julian_, touch that file will not make it work. there must be some more setup I need to do.
[10:38] <rmds> raven 5901 is sample port number
[10:38] <rmds> you need to chnage wat you have configured with
[10:38] <raven> ok
[10:39] <julian_> sgo11: see post number 5 in the link i posted earlier.
[10:39] <sgo11> julian_, yeah, I am reading it.
[10:39] <rafi> italoxp ok
[10:40] <Noorman>  /msg nickserv identify xl600v
[10:40] <JoeBloggs> lol
[10:40] <julian_> anyway, time for work.
[10:40] <julian_> good luck sgo11
[10:41] <sgo11> julian_, wow, you logout too fast. I don't even have the chance to say thank. thank you very much even you can't read it.
[10:41] <siji> Noorman, nice password :)
[10:42] <dury> hi there channel :)
[10:42] <crazyrohila> :)
[10:42] <rmds> :)
[10:42] <italoxp> Hello dury =D
[10:42] <Noorman> i now i need to change it now .. damn
[10:43] <italoxp> Offtopic channel is boring today ._.
[10:43] <dury> =D
[10:43] <casey> My question is regarding music players and ubuntu. Basically I have all kinds of files, some from itunes, others from cds. I am currently using rythymbox but am open to suggestions. As of right now, some songs refuse to lay. How can I fix this?
[10:43] <italoxp> Noorman, you fail ._.
[10:43] <oCean> italoxp: stop that
[10:43] <leejohn> good day guys, anyone has an experience on nfs replication
[10:43] <rmds> casey install
[10:43] <leejohn> does ubuntu support this feature on it's nfsv4?
[10:43] <italoxp> oCean, sorry.
[10:43] <rmds> audacious
[10:43] <italoxp> casey, install the codecs of the files you can't open
[10:44] <italoxp> casey, there are gstreamer0.10 packages with a lot of codecs
[10:44] <dury> if I install the last firefox releasewill affect the system?
[10:44] <italoxp> casey, they should do
[10:44] <casey> italoxp: please explain further on how to do this. I already have the restricted codecs pack. What more should I need?
[10:44] <arfoll> has anyone got hyperthreading working on a 1155 sandybridge? (like i7 2600). if so on what kernel?
[10:44] <italoxp> no, dury
[10:44] <italoxp> casey, open Synaptic
[10:44] <dury> italoxp: sure
[10:45] <casey> italoxp: Ok did that.
[10:45] <italoxp> Search for gstreamer
[10:45] <casey> italoxp: I have 3 o those packages installed
[10:45] <casey> *of
[10:45] <italoxp> casey, and install the ones you don't have
[10:45] <christina> is there someone who can help me with clamFS and on-access detection?
[10:45] <dury> italoxp: sure?
[10:45] <italoxp> dury, yes, yes
[10:46] <dorigentoo> hi guys
[10:46] <casey> italoxp: I have them all :(.
[10:46] <italoxp> dury, if you're going to build from source, you have to install build-essentials
[10:46] <italoxp> casey, are you sure?
[10:46] <casey> italoxp: Is it because the songs came from itunes?
[10:46] <dury> dorigentoo: hi there
[10:46] <casey> italoxp: I see 3 gstreamer packages. They all say installed with a checkmark.
[10:46] <italoxp> casey, I don't know
[10:47] <italoxp> There's like, tons of packages when you search gstreamer on synaptic
[10:47] <dury> italoxp: what's that?
[10:47] <casey> italoxp: Any other ideas? Or any ideas on why rythymbox would skip only certain songs?
[10:47] <casey> italoxp: DO I need to add a gstreamer ppa?
[10:47] <italoxp> dury, you're going to install the last release, right?
[10:47] <italoxp> dury, from mozilla's site
[10:47] <dury> italoxp: right, so?
[10:48] <dorigentoo> What is the difference between a scp and a rsync ? I was trying to do rsync -a from a remote repository to a local one as recommanded in a tutorial, but it just created a bunch of links I guess, and got "too many levels of symbolic links" error. scp seems to work on the contrary
[10:49] <arfoll> dorigentoo, check your rsync options. rsync is able to synchronise two directories, scp simply does a stupid cp over ssh
[10:49] <dury> italoxp: what u mean then?
[10:49] <italoxp> casey, I think that's not needed
[10:49] <italoxp> casey, which version of ubuntu are you using?
[10:49] <italoxp> dury, I don't think you have to install the last release from mozzila site, ubuntu repositories always get the last firefox version
[10:49] <dorigentoo> arfoll, ok
[10:49] <italoxp> dury, you want the last release, right?
[10:49] <italoxp> Just update the system
[10:49] <italoxp> The last release is on the repositories
[10:50] <casey> italoxp: 10.10
[10:50] <italoxp> casey, hmm... I'd update to 11.04 asap, but let's come back to the problem
[10:50] <dury> italoxp: that's the point don't wanna update the system
[10:50] <italoxp> casey, are you sure that all the gstreamer packages are installed?
[10:50] <casey> italoxp: I'm not a big fan of unity. But i'm thinking of upgrading at 11.10
[10:50] <italoxp> dury, why not?
[10:51] <casey> italoxp: All that i can see with what i have in my software sources. Yes.
[10:51] <italoxp> casey, we have classic ubuntu as well
[10:51] <casey> italoxp: It sems to run slow on my dell.
[10:51] <italoxp> casey, it's a session option, you start with the classic gnome .-.
[10:51] <livingdaylight> Hi, want to install adobe air on my x64bit system. But not compatible. Anyone know the workaround?
[10:51] <italoxp> casey, oh right
[10:51] <Guest56460> hey all
[10:51] <italoxp> casey, have you thought about using Xubuntu? It seems pretty nice
[10:51] <casey> italoxp: Maybe it's just me, but i cant stand the slowness.
[10:51] <Guest56460> get in windows format and use wine :)
[10:52] <arfoll> livingdaylight, use a 32bit chroot and run air from there
[10:52] <italoxp> casey, about the musics... Try other players
[10:52] <casey> italoxp: No I haven't actually. But I have tried kubuntu and i'm not a big fan of KDE either lol.
[10:52] <italoxp> casey, install Exaile
[10:52] <Guest56460> apt-get install wine
[10:52] <casey> italoxp: I have tried other music players. All skip those songs. Coincidentally they are itunes bought songs. Back in my Vista days lol.
[10:52] <italoxp> casey, I don't like KDE either
[10:52] <italoxp> Hmm
[10:52] <casey> italoxp: Really exaile? Is that the one you use?
[10:53] <casey> italoxp: Speaking of music players, have you ever tried amarok?
[10:53] <arfoll> casey, try gst-discovert filename
[10:53] <italoxp> casey, I'm using Banshee, that's ubuntu's default
[10:53] <JoeBloggs> there is always Virtual Box
[10:53] <italoxp> casey, yes, I have
[10:53] <casey> arfoll: Please elaboate. Where do I do that at?
[10:53] <italoxp> casey, I'm not a big fan of using qt apps on a gtk system
[10:53] <italoxp> casey, but it's pretty nice
[10:53] <casey> italoxp: Do you like amarok? I can't seem to figure it out but yet people seem to rave aobut it lol.
[10:53] <arfoll> casey, run gst-discover at the terminal. it should give you the details of the media file. put it in a pastebin
[10:54] <frxstrem> in VLC, is it possible to sync the audio and video automatically (i.e. by a predefined value)?
[10:54] <italoxp> casey, If I had to use KDE, I'd use it
[10:54] <casey> arfoll: sorry newbie question. Where is the pastebin?
[10:54] <italoxp> casey, but I don't like KDE, and prefer GTK apps
[10:54] <italoxp> casey, so, I stay with Exaile.
[10:54] <casey> italoxp: Same here. On both accounts.
[10:54] <arfoll> casey, go to pastebin.com, shove the output of the command, save and give the link here
[10:55] <casey> arfoll: does it need a sudo? Doesn't seem to work in terminal for me?
[10:55] <italoxp> casey, type gst-disc and press tab
[10:56] <italoxp> casey, it doesnt need sudo
[10:56] <italoxp> casey, and you have to point it to a file
[10:56] <casey> so find a song that skips?
[10:56] <italoxp> casey, the command is gst-discoverer-0.10 /path/to/song
[10:57] <italoxp> casey, point it to a song that skips and paste it on pastebin
[10:57] <italoxp> casey, so we can help you =D
[10:57]  * arfoll thinks discoverer would be an awesome name
[10:57] <casey> italoxp: got it. Let me get one real quick :).
[10:58] <sgo11> julian_ is not here.... I just want to say the link/forum is useless to me. that guy is trying to automount /home directory. so he can use  ecryptfs-setup-private. but I can't use it.
[10:59] <italoxp> sgo11, I can't find anything related to your problem =/
[10:59] <casey> italoxp: My mistake. I forgot that problem was with banshee. My new problem is rthymbox wont even load those skipped song. Like they aren't visible on the program. Should I still try to find which ones aren't and use that command?
[11:00] <italoxp> casey, yes
[11:00] <sgo11> italoxp, ...... My problem is common. just nobody post how to do it online.
[11:00] <casey> italoxp: Alright let me give it a go.
[11:01] <italoxp> casey, banshee is loading the files on your music folder, but cant reproduce that file. Rythmbox just doesn't load the unrecognised files
[11:01] <italoxp> casey, I guess you're missing codecs
[11:01] <raven> how to login tty7 graphically via ssh?
[11:01] <yomeister> hey, on my acer travelmate wake on lan works perfectly when the lid is open but not at all when the lid is closed. Any pointers to what to do?
[11:02] <arfoll> casey, italoxp is right. in fact run gst-inspect-0.10 and put the output in the same pastebin, that'll save us time ;-)
[11:03] <raven> how to login tty7 graphically via ssh?
[11:03] <italoxp> Isn't tty7 reserved to X?
[11:04] <casey> Italoxp: arfoll: So use gst-inspect-0.10 now? And yes italoxp you have the situation perfectly understood.
[11:05] <italoxp> casey, like I said, gst-inspect-0.10 /path/to/file
[11:05] <casey> italoxp: http://pastebin.com/UsUiA1St
[11:05] <italoxp> casey, let me take a look
[11:05] <casey> italoxp: There you go. I hope that helps :0
[11:05] <casey> *:)
[11:06] <WeisseWaschbaer> raven: you can run initx in another session
[11:06] <WeisseWaschbaer> :s/intix/xinit
[11:06] <arfoll> casey, can you grab us the output of gst-inspect-0.10 without any files
[11:06] <italoxp> casey, yes, it's a codec issue
[11:06] <casey> arfoll: What do you mean by that?
[11:06] <casey> italoxp: How should I move from here?
[11:07] <arfoll> casey, open a terminal, type gst-inspect-0.10 and paste the output
[11:07] <ThinkT510> !codecs | casey
[11:07] <arfoll> casey, are you sure you ran gst-discover-0.10 /home/casey/Music/CXYS.m4p ?
[11:07] <casey> arfoll: That is what I typed.
[11:08] <casey> arfoll: let me get you that othet output right now
[11:08] <arfoll> casey, cool, that will give us a list of codecs on your system
[11:09] <raven> WeisseWaschbaer, xserver alredy runs on the remote machine. i only need a way to manually login the tty7 to activate vnc server
[11:09] <italoxp> casey, run sudo apt-get install gstreamer* on terminal, just to be sure that you have all the codecs installed
[11:09] <casey> arfoll: This is everything it came up with. The command disapeared though. http://pastebin.com/TtAShsmU
[11:10] <casey> italoxp: ok :). Anything I should look for when I do?
[11:10] <WeisseWaschbaer> raven: try xhosts
[11:10] <italoxp> casey, running this command you'll install every gstreamer plugin possible
[11:10] <casey> italoxp: ah interesting. Got an error. Wait a sec and i'll post the link for you :).
[11:10] <italoxp> casey, I guess this may solve the problem
[11:11] <arfoll> casey, you need to increase the terminal log size. but basically you don't have gst-plugins-ugly and gst-plugins-bad
[11:11] <casey> italoxp: http://pastebin.com/xV0gkvhL
[11:11] <casey> arfoll: How should I get those?
[11:12] <casey> Maybe you both are answering me in the same way lol.
[11:12] <davlefou> Lu,
[11:12] <davlefou> j'aurais besoin d'aide!
[11:12] <Myrtti> !fr | davlefou
[11:12] <arfoll> casey, actually no I'm wrong. you allready have what you need. italoxp is wrong too you have all the codecs available from gstreamer bad/ugly
[11:12] <WeisseWaschbaer> raven: $xhosts ip#
[11:12] <davlefou> Sorry!
[11:12] <rafi> ''
[11:13] <casey> arfoll: well dang lol. WHat to do now?
[11:13] <casey> *what
[11:13] <raven> WeisseWaschbaer, on remote or local?
[11:13] <italoxp> arfoll, apt is telling casey that he doesn't have the dependencies for bad plugins
[11:13] <casey> arfoll: Did you see my post of the error i got when I tried to install gstremer.
[11:13] <davlefou> Why you don't start speak french?
[11:13] <arfoll> casey, what does "file path/to/your/file" give you
[11:13] <davlefou> ;<))
[11:13] <WeisseWaschbaer> raven: on remote
[11:13] <casey> italoxp: So how do i get those dependencies easily?
[11:13] <davlefou> by

[11:14] <Ynodde> question: i get the following error in my syslog on my internet router(ubuntu 11.04): martian source 192.168.x.x from 92.254.124.83, on dev eth0
[11:14] <Ynodde> anyone got a idea howto resolve that, it my external ip is sending traffic on my internal if
[11:14] <casey> italoxp: arfoll: Any ideas?
[11:15] <arfoll> casey, yes run the "file /path/to/media/file" command
[11:15] <casey> arfoll: same file as before?
[11:15] <italoxp> casey, run gst-inspect-0.10 | grep m4p and see if it gives you any output
[11:15] <arfoll> casey, yes
[11:16] <casey> italoxp: no output.
[11:16] <casey> arfoll: one sec.
[11:16] <italoxp> casey, yes... It doesn't have the codecs installed
[11:16] <italoxp> arfoll, are you sure he has the ugly and bad plugins?
[11:16] <casey> arfoll: casey@casey-Ubuntu-1720:~$ file '/home/casey/Music/CXYS.m4p'
[11:16] <casey> /home/casey/Music/CXYS.m4p: ISO Media, MPEG v4 system, iTunes AAC-LC
[11:16] <arfoll> italoxp, yes because he has the mad decoder and the packages are selected

[11:18] <dr_willis> Kartagis:  how are youconnected to the machine
[11:18] <ThinkT510> italoxp: you can't install every gstreamer package at once, one or two of them conflict
[11:18] <italoxp> arfoll, lol, there are duplicated packages? gst-bad-multiverse and gst-bad-plugins?

[11:19] <italoxp> casey, nothing at all
[11:19] <Ynodde> Barco:no luck on the logfiles?
[11:19] <italoxp> casey, you do have the necessary packages .-.
[11:19] <Kartagis> dr_willis: X11Forwarding yes <--- I have this
[11:19] <italoxp> arfoll, any idea?
[11:19] <casey> italoxp:  oh ok. Well is there any way to just instlal the dependencies and try again?
[11:20] <italoxp> casey, try other media players. Did you install Exaile?
[11:20] <iceroot> Barco: why should apache be the problem?
[11:20] <Ynodde> Barco:/var/log/apache2
[11:20] <italoxp> casey, it won't help, you do have the codecs
[11:20] <arfoll> casey, italoxp, give me a sec
[11:20] <iceroot> Barco: apache is just providing the files and dont have flash functions
[11:20] <WeisseWaschbaer> raven: on the client:  $ export DISPLAY=server-host-name:0.0
[11:20] <casey> italoxp: If thats my final choice then i guess so, but I wish I had the freedom to use what I want lol. I'll give it a try.
[11:20] <italoxp> arfoll, I'm not sure if he has the codecs, because m4p should appear in gst-
[11:20] <casey> arfoll: thank you for trying. I will wait.
[11:20] <italoxp> casey, just give it a try
[11:20] <dr_willis> -X is forawdig off i thought

[11:22] <casey> ThinkTf10: Yes?
[11:22] <ThinkT510> casey: do a search in synaptic for gstr
[11:22] <jane-> i cant boot. iam on grub rescue>  what to do now >

[11:22] <italoxp> casey, try installing that package again
[11:22] <casey> ThinkT510: Ok. What am I looking for?
[11:22] <photon> hi. I have installed the drivers for my nvidia card, and they seem to work. however, when trying to activate compiz effects in System, Preferences, Appearance it just reverts back to "none" without any error.

[11:23] <raven> WeisseWaschbaer, xhost +: unable to open display"" on the server
[11:23] <dr_willis> Kartagis:  its easy to get -x and -X backwards.  i just set to be default on i sshd
[11:23] <casey>  ThinkT510: I dont see the bad and ugly you refer too.
[11:24] <casey> italoxp: what was the command again?
[11:24] <ThinkT510> casey: they should be in the list
[11:24] <casey> ThinkT510: They are not. I do not see them. Is there anything I need in software sources to see those?
[11:24] <ThinkT510> casey: are you using the quick search box or the search utility?
[11:25] <italoxp> casey, try sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
[11:25] <casey> italoxp: Exaile did the same as rthymbox, certain songs did not show up at all :(.
[11:25] <casey> ThinkT510: The search box.
[11:25] <Kartagis> dr_willis: for that to work (DISPLAY variable)  I have to have X on the server, right?
[11:25] <italoxp> casey, you seem to have bad-multiverse, that's different from plugins-bad, I guess
[11:25] <ThinkT510> casey: don't use the search box, press the magnifying glass thingy
[11:25] <dr_willis> Kartagis:  i always have x. so not sure. i would thik so

[11:26] <casey> ThinkT510: sorry. Didn;t look that long on the terminal.

[11:45] <Jackneill> i can
[11:45] <ikonia> fremen_: remove that line as root should not be in the sudoers file
[11:45] <siavoshkc> ne2k: and you still mean GPU not CPU?
[11:45] <ikonia> fremen_: sorry that was for Jackneill
[11:45] <ikonia> Jackneill: remove that line as root should not be in the sudoers
[11:45] <Jackneill> remove that line: root ALL=(ALL) ALL ?
[11:45] <ikonia> Jackneill: yes
[11:46] <Jackneill> ok
[11:46] <Jackneill> wait some sec
[11:46] <Jackneill> minute*
[11:46] <fremen_> ikonia_: what do you mean by "remove that line" ?
[11:46] <ikonia> fremen_: as I said that was meant for another user
[11:47] <fremen_> ikonia_: oh sorry for that :)
[11:47] <Antonis> Hello. I have installed ubuntu 10.10 on my netbook but have a problem with wifi. I am able to see wifi networks and also connect to them. in fact I have connected to my wifi at home but while it says that I am connected and everything seems to be ok I am not able to browse the web or update or do anything that needs an internet connection
[11:47] <dc5ala> fremen_, maybe there is something missing? try sudo apt-get install xorg
[11:47] <ne2k> siavoshkc: well, the real problem is that switching workspaces is slow. even with very little open, it still takes nearly half a second, which is MUCH slower than maverick. on maverick it was seemingly instant, no matter what was running. now it's slow to start with, and gets slower the more I have open.
[11:48] <ne2k> siavoshkc: I mentioned the GPU because I noticed the GPU temp went up when I had Google Earth open
[11:48] <ne2k> siavoshkc: however, I'm not saying that's the cause of the problem. I would like to know what to investigate further to work out the cause of the problem
[11:49] <Antonis> Could someone pls help me solve this problem?
[11:49] <dc5ala> fremen_, oh, and probably need to sudo start gdm
[11:49] <fremen_> dc5ala_: its says its already installed and at latest version, what is the command to automaticly update every software to its latest version ?
[11:49] <ne2k> Antonis: pastebin output of "ip addr" and "ip route"
[11:50] <fremen_> dc5ala_: its says that gdm is already running
[11:50] <Sidewinder1> !help | Antonis
[11:50] <ne2k> siavoshkc: btw I am using gnome classic, not unity
[11:50] <dc5ala> fremen_, but i suppose nothing on alt+f7 running? You probably have to take a look into /var/log/xorg*.log
[11:50] <ne2k> siavoshkc: everything looks pretty much the same as it did in mavericak
[11:51] <dc5ala> fremen_, or when you manually tweaked xorg.conf, try to rename it and start without one
[11:51] <DistroJockey> ne2k: Have you tried Ubuntu Classic (No effects) ?
[11:52] <siavoshkc> ne2k: what process is using the cpu the most?
[11:52] <fremen_> dc5ala_: a new screen apperaed, and its now checking battery state
[11:52] <Jackneill> hi
[11:53] <Jackneill> ikonia, hi
[11:53] <ikonia> Jackneill: hello
[11:53] <fremen_> dc5ala_: i believe the cause is updated graphics card driver, before that it was running fine
[11:53] <Jackneill> same error too
[11:54] <Jackneill> :/
[11:54] <ikonia> Jackneill: what user are you ?
[11:54] <Antonis> Sidewinder1, I already asked my question =)
[11:54] <dc5ala> fremen_, what graphics driver and did you do a reboot?
[11:54] <Antonis> ne2k, just a sec
[11:54] <Sidewinder1> Antonis, Sorry, I missed it. :-(
[11:55] <Jackneill> ikonia, jackneill
[11:55] <Jackneill> in sudoers file now only: jackneill ALL=(ALL) ALL
[11:55] <ikonia> Jackneill: what command are you running
[11:55] <ne2k> siavoshkc: I am looking at the viewport switching desktop wall settings in compizconfig
[11:55] <ikonia> Jackneill: no - why is that in there ?
[11:55] <ikonia> Jackneill: that should not be in there, who put that line in there
[11:55]  * Sidewinder1 Has to pay more attention...
[11:55] <Jackneill> /etc/sudoers
[11:55] <ikonia> Jackneill: who put that line in there
[11:56] <Jackneill> ikonia, i run ubuntu in recovery mode from grub, i choose root, and i get root prompt
[11:56] <Jackneill> and, nano /etc/sudoers
[11:56] <fremen_> dc5ada_: ndivia 3d driver and yes i reboot because os requested it
[11:56] <ikonia> Jackneill: I understand that, but why are you changing the sudoers file
[11:56] <Antonis> ne2k, http://paste.ubuntu.com/653739/ and http://paste.ubuntu.com/653741/
[11:56] <SexyBoBo> Ok hdd keeps failing due to read error i have ran smartctl fsck and bad blocks they all come up clean what else should i try?
[11:57] <C_Classic> I have an Acer231H multitouch-screen. It works fine when I'm in clone view or when I disable my notebook's internal screen. But as soon as I have both screens enabled, it thinks that both screens together are my touchscreen. (-> upper left corner is OK; but when I touch the bottom right corner the cursor goes to the bottom right corner of my notebook screen (and not to the bottom right of the touchscreen)) Any ideas on how to tell U
[11:57] <C_Classic> buntu that it should only use my external screen for the touch?
[11:57] <ne2k> Antonis: you have addresses on two different interfaces on the same subnet. why?
[11:57] <Jackneill> ikonia, i want to install a deb package in software center, and when i click to install button, and i get a popup window , and i need to authenticate
[11:57] <Jackneill> ikonia, need prt scr?
[11:57] <dc5ala> fremen_, hmm, try to run sudo apt-get install nvidia-current
[11:57] <fremen_> dc5ala_: ndivia 3d driver and yes i reboot because os requested it
[11:57] <ikonia> Jackneill: right, so you don't need to add anything to the sudoers file for that, remove that line
[11:58] <Jackneill> remove jackneill ALL=(ALL) ALL ?
[11:58] <ikonia> Jackneill: the default ubuntu install allows anyone in the "admin" group (note group not user) to use sudo, so add your user Jackneill to the admin group
[11:58] <ikonia> Jackneill: yes, remove that line
[11:58] <optraz> hi, how do i create swap space on the currently mounted hdd ?
[11:58] <Jackneill> ok ikonia
[11:58] <Jackneill> what command to add me to admin group?
[11:58] <fremen_> dc5ala_: but it still checking battery from previous command, should i reboot ?
[11:59] <ThinkT510> optraz: use gparted
[11:59] <optraz> ThinkT510: yes i am, it complaint mounted
[11:59] <mjg123> I'm looking for an app which will make the whole screen black except the active window and will supress popups/alerts etc - for gnome on 10.04 - does anyone know of such a thing?
[11:59] <ne2k> DistroJockey: this was all working fine in maverick!
[11:59] <ikonia> Jackneill: is this your machine ?
[11:59] <Jackneill> yes
[12:00] <ThinkT510> optraz: right click the swap partition and it should have an option allong the lines of swapoff
[12:00] <Antonis> ne2k, I don't understand what you mean. I have no idea why :\
[12:00] <dc5ala> fremen_, no idea what that battery thingy is ;) What did apt-get say about nvidia-current, did it do anything?
[12:00] <Sidewinder1> SexyBoBo, Have you tried System--> Administration--> Disk Utility?
[12:00] <Antonis> but the wifi gives me new IP everytime I think.. it's not static
[12:00] <DistroJockey> ne2k: Lots of stuff has changed since then. Did you try without compiz running?
[12:00] <optraz> ThinkT510: that is the problem.. my system does *not* have swap :-s
[12:00] <ne2k> Antonis: do you have a wired connection and a wireless connection to the same network at once? what are the interfaces eth0 and eth1?
[12:00] <optraz> ThinkT510: so im created manually
[12:00] <ne2k> DistroJockey: how do I switch it off?
[12:01] <ikonia> Jackneill: did you install the machine ?
[12:01] <Antonis> ne2k, yes eth0 would be the ethernet which I am connected to cause eth1 which is the wifi won't work
[12:01] <ThinkT510> optraz: are you trying to resize any other partitions when you are creating the new swap partition?
[12:01] <dr_willis> optraz you can add a swap file
[12:01] <DistroJockey> ne2k: as I said Ubuntu Classic (No effects)  -  from the login screen after selecting your username
[12:01] <dc5ala> fremen_, does this battery thing appear after you run that command?
[12:01] <ne2k> Antonis: you don't have a default route on the eth1
[12:01] <Jackneill> ikonia, yes
[12:02] <Antonis> ne2k, which means?
[12:02] <ikonia> Jackneill: ok, is Jackneill the user you created at install time ?
[12:02] <DistroJockey> ne2k: as a test, it won't turn it off as such, but will disable it for that login session
[12:02] <Jackneill> ikonia, yes with small letter: jackneill
[12:02] <optraz> dr_willis: using fallocate?
[12:02] <ne2k> DistroJockey: I thought it could be done without logging out
[12:02] <fremen_> dc5ala_: battery check appeared after alt+F7 command, btw what is the default password for root in ubundu ?
[12:02] <optraz> ThinkT510: yes, i want to but i cannot resize because gparted copmlaint the partition is mounted.
[12:02] <DistroJockey> ne2k: can be
[12:02] <ikonia> Jackneill: ok, so the ubuntu install will have put jackneill already in the admin group
[12:03] <jrib> !root | fremen_
[12:03] <ne2k> Antonis: your computer doesn't know where to send the data for things that are not on your network
[12:03] <ikonia> Jackneill: you should be already able to use sudo as the user jackenill
[12:03] <ne2k> Antonis: how did you configure the ip address on your wireless interface?
[12:03] <dr_willis> optraz:  using dd. mkswap and swapon
[12:03] <Jackneill> ikonia, can it do with a command? in root prompt?
[12:03] <ThinkT510> optraz: then you should do it from a livecd (i'm guessing the partition you want to resize is ubuntu whicch you are logged onto)
[12:03] <ikonia> Jackneill: no, as you are root, stop using the root prompt and use the normal install
[12:03] <dc5ala> fremen_, it's crypted by default, you usually work with sudo
[12:04] <ne2k> DistroJockey: yes, so where is that? I can't find it
[12:04] <ikonia> Jackneill: is there a reason you are not booted into the normal install /
[12:04] <Sidewinder1> optraz, Boot from LiveCD and use gparted from there. That way your main partition will not be mounted.
[12:04] <Antonis> ne2k, I didn't I just installed ubuntu 10.10 and then added the drivers from the hardware tool up on the panel. I rebooted and found my network on the wifi list and just connected
[12:04] <Antonis> I haven't done more than that
[12:04] <DistroJockey> ne2k: No idea sorry. They moved it.
[12:04] <ne2k> DistroJockey: helpful
[12:04] <Sidewinder1> ThinkT510, You beat me. :-)
[12:04] <Jackneill> ikonia, i boot from usb stick with ubuntu iso, and after?
[12:04] <fremen_> dc5ala_: then i will login with my account and try that command you gave me
[12:04] <tobago> how to clear multiple files in a folder? "echo -n > file" on multiple files?
[12:05] <ne2k> Antonis: try disconnecting your wired network and doing "ping 192.168.1.1" to see if your wireless is really connected and you can get to your router
[12:05] <DistroJockey> ne2k: you're welcome
[12:05] <jrib> tobago: for loop
[12:05] <ikonia> Jackneill: boot the normal system
[12:05] <ne2k> tobago: why would you want to do that? why would you want to "clear" a file?
[12:05] <dc5ala> fremen_, yes, you can switch to the other terminal via alt+f1
[12:05] <Jackneill> ikonia, i did, im in normal system
[12:05] <ikonia> Jackneill: then use the user jackneill to use sudo
[12:06] <optraz> ThinkT510: Sidewinder1 okay, dont have livecd now :-s
[12:06] <Jackneill> ikonia, how?
[12:06] <tobago> ne2k e.g. clear all loggiles...
[12:06] <optraz> dr_willis: yes, but im usig swap faq from ubuntu https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq#Empty%20Swaphttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq#Empty%20Swap
[12:06] <optraz> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq#Empty%20Swap
[12:06] <ne2k> tobago: why not just remove them?
[12:06] <ikonia> Jackneill: just open the applications you want to use when logged in as the user jackneill if it asks you for a password, use your password
[12:06] <tobago> ne2k because they are logfiles. and will be filled again.
[12:07] <BluesKaj> hiyas all
[12:07] <Sidewinder1> Hey, Blue
[12:07] <geilentoo> hey i had a question about something
[12:07] <matiu> My ubuntu box freezes but the mouse still works, but not the keyboard .. only happens in gui mode .. intel and nvidia agp graphics .. any direction appreciated
[12:07] <Jackneill> ikonia, i did, failed.
[12:07] <fremen_> dc5ala_: its says that nvidia is already at latest version, no update requried
[12:07] <geilentoo> how would an isp respond to a report that someone was using one of their customers open wifi?
[12:08] <dli> tobago, rm -i *.log , log files will be auto created anyway, better, sudo apt-get install logrotate
[12:08] <ikonia> Jackneill: please paste the output of the command "id"
[12:08] <ThinkT510> geilentoo: thats not really a ubuntu question
[12:08] <Sidewinder1> !ot > geilentoo
[12:08] <Jackneill> inkonia, wait a min
[12:08] <geilentoo> where can i ask?
[12:08] <dr_willis> geilentoo:  i got an email and phonecall for that once
[12:08] <geilentoo> not many rooms on here
[12:08] <Antonis> ne2k, destination host unreachable
[12:08] <Sidewinder1> ThinkT510, Beat ma, again. :-(
[12:08] <Sidewinder1> me, even
[12:08] <dc5ala> fremen_, try "lsmod | grep nv" to see if that driver is loaded
[12:08] <ne2k> Antonis: right, then you are not really connected to your wifi network
[12:08] <Pici> geilentoo: As ubottu has told you, #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:09] <chaozuper> !podcast
[12:09] <ne2k> Antonis: is the wifi network one and the same as the wired network?
[12:09] <matiu> geilentoo: they'd probably notify the customer
[12:09] <ThinkT510> geilentoo: like Sidewinder1 pointed you to #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:09] <madjoe> I had to make svn switch --relocate OLD NEW, and now svn keep asking me the password for my new repo every time... I use https as a root folder for NEW.. how can I make svn to remember my password again (it used to work like that before)?
[12:09] <geilentoo> matiu but they wouldnt try to track down the person who was using their wifi? all i wanted to know
[12:09] <Kartagis> is there absolutely no way I can run an X program in a SSH session? do I need to install xorg-common?
[12:10] <dli> Kartagis, you mean X11Forwarding?
[12:10] <Kartagis> dli: yeah
[12:10] <fremen_> dc5ala_: i believe it is , it returned a file/directory named nvidia
[12:10] <matiu> geilentoo: I wouldn't expect so .. but the wifi owner might ..
[12:10] <dli> Kartagis, like: ssh -XY user@host
[12:10] <Jackneill> ikonia, http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/840/screenshot1uf.png/
[12:10] <Kartagis> dli: but it doesn't work since it doesn't have X
[12:10] <fremen_> dc5ala_: thanks very much but its not working, i am going to reinstall ubuntu
[12:10] <Deesl> what am I doing wrong?
[12:11] <jrib> Kartagis: ssh -X (I think there is some requirement on the server, though I forgot what it is exactly.  My guess is something like xbase-clients)
[12:11] <matiu> geilentoo: it's not the ISPs problem .. they probably hold the account owner liable for all use of that wifi
[12:11] <ikonia> Jackneill: I asked you for the output of the command "id"
[12:11] <Jackneill> ikonia, id?
[12:11] <BluesKaj> Kartagis, ssh -X user@ipaddress
[12:11] <Jackneill> ikonia, but please see the pic
[12:11] <dli> Kartagis, which side? you need X at the xserver side (ssh client)
[12:11] <ikonia> Jackneill: please give me the information I've asked for
[12:11] <matiu> geilentoo: but the wifi owner might have a friend who's a computer wizz, has radio tracking gear, and knows kung fu .. so watch out :D
[12:11] <Jackneill> ikonia, what id?
[12:11] <Kartagis> dli: I don't have X on the server
[12:12] <geilentoo> lol
[12:12] <Antonis> ne2k, yes
[12:12] <Jackneill> ikonia, im noob sorry, i dont know what id you need
[12:12] <Sidewinder1> !ask > Deesl
[12:12] <dli> Kartagis, and the X client programs, e.g. xterm, on the ssh server end
[12:12] <ikonia> Jackneill: please open a terminal, and type the words "id" into it, the output if gives you paste into this channel
[12:12] <Deesl> Sidewinder1: ? I already asked the question incase you have not noticed
[12:12] <dli> Kartagis, which server, X server, or ssh server?
[12:12] <dc5ala> fremen_, usually this is not needed, just must figure out what's wrong
[12:12] <Kartagis> dli: I just need to run a java configuration GUI
[12:13] <Kartagis> dli: ssh server
[12:13] <Kartagis> oops, X
[12:13] <dli> Kartagis, no, you don't need X server on the machine you ssh into (ssh server) side
[12:13] <Jackneill> ikonia,
[12:13] <Sidewinder1> Deesl, I looked. Sorry, I didn't find. Again, humblest apologies.
[12:13] <Jackneill> ikonia, http://pastebin.com/AGGMA3dV
[12:13] <Deesl> Sidewinder1: no worries.. but it would be nice if you can help
[12:13] <Deesl> the last thing I want is going back to Windows... :(
[12:14] <thauriswulfa2> HELP: trying boot a xubuntu from usb, but its not starting it hangs on showing logo
[12:14] <dli> Kartagis, you have to make sure ssh server (sshd) supports X11Forwarding, after ssh login, do: sudo grep -i x11 /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[12:14] <ikonia> Jackneill: as you can see you're not in the admin group, how/why have you removed your user from the admin group
[12:14] <ThinkT510> Jackneill: ikonia told you to add yourself to the admin group
[12:14] <fremen_> dc5ala_: i know but, there shouldnt be anything wrong actualy, i just installed it and updated the graphics driver then boom, everythings go dark :)
[12:14] <dli> thauriswulfa, my wild guess, you may want to try "safe graphic mode'
[12:15] <Sidewinder1> Deesl, I just went back about two pages and still couldn't find it; guess I need new glasses. :-(
[12:15] <Jackneill> ikonia, i run an apache web server, and i want to edited the /var/www folder, but it was denied for me. so i added me to www-data group
[12:15] <Kartagis> dli: /etc/ssh/sshd_config:X11Forwarding yes
[12:15] <Deesl> Sidewinder1: I just reposted my query
[12:16] <dli> Kartagis, can you run something like xterm by x11 forwarding? if xterm is installed there
[12:16] <chenthu> Hey guys, I am installing 'Natty Narhwal" using alternate iso through expert mode....need some suggestion.....
[12:16] <Kartagis> dli: No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an operation which requires it.
[12:16] <ThinkT510> Jackneill: he asked why aren't you in the admin group
[12:16] <matlock> So  my wireless connection icon keeps dropping the connection
[12:16] <Deesl> Sidewinder1: did you see it now?
[12:16] <matlock> it's pissing me off
[12:16] <ThinkT510> !language | matlock
[12:17] <DistroJockey> Deesl, Sidewinder1: Not in this channel that I can see
[12:17] <Kartagis> dli: xterm:  DISPLAY is not set
[12:17] <matlock> like right now, it says it's attempting to get a connection
[12:17] <matlock> but i'm on the internet
[12:17] <matlock> explain please
[12:17] <Sidewinder1> Deesl, Dag-nab-it, I still can't find your question; feel free to PM me; that's no gaurentee that I'll have the answer.
[12:17] <fremen_> can anyone tell me what is keyring ?
[12:17] <dli> Kartagis, did you do "ssh -XY", and do you set DISPLAY in profile .bash_profile, etc. ?
[12:17] <Jackneill> thinkt510, i did that cmd: cp jackneill -g www-data, after i couldn't do sudo, so i wrote me to sudoers file
[12:17] <ThinkT510> Jackneill: that is not the admin group
[12:17] <Kartagis> dli: set DISPLAY to what?
[12:17] <Sidewinder1> DistroJockey, Thanks, guess it's not me!
[12:17] <Deesl> Sidewinder1: just sent it to your PM
[12:18] <matlock> see and now it dropped
[12:18] <dli> Kartagis, grep DISPLAY ~/.bash*
[12:18] <dr_willis> a password saver tool. fremen_
[12:18] <DistroJockey> Sidewinder1: nope, not just you :)
[12:18] <Jackneill> thinkt510, yes i know but i needed to edit /var/www
[12:18] <dli> Kartagis, if you have no idea, logout, and do "ssh -XY" again
[12:18] <Deesl> Sidewinder1: did you get my PM?
[12:19] <chenthu> Need help installing "Natty" using alternate iso through expert mode...
[12:19] <Kartagis> dli: all I get is .bash_history
[12:19] <Sidewinder1> Deesl, No PM recieved; you may wish to further your knowledge in whatever chat client; with all due respect, of course.
[12:19] <matlock> Can anyone help me with my network issue
[12:19] <jrib> chenthu: be more specific
[12:19] <jrib> matlock: be more specific
[12:19] <Deesl> okay .. let me reconnect
[12:19] <matlock> i did
[12:19] <matlock> scroll up
[12:19] <matlock> So  my wireless connection icon keeps dropping the connection
[12:19] <matlock> but i'm on the internet
[12:19] <matlock> and it drops

[12:20] <pr0ton> whats a cool obscure word for admin?
[12:20] <jrib> !ot | pr0ton
[12:20] <Deesl> hello having a strange problem with Lenovo B560 notebook. It has an atheros AR9285 controller. When I boot into Ubuntu, it says hardware has been disabled bya hardware switch although all switches are in "on" state.
[12:20] <fremen_> it requesting me a password for the keyring at ubuntu installation, do i have to enter a password (not leaving blank) ? and is this program remembers the passwords ?
[12:20] <dli> Kartagis, you greped /etc/ssh/sshd_config on the ssh server, in ssh login, right?
[12:20] <compdoc> guru
[12:20] <Deesl> I also tried booting into Windows and switching on the hardware and it works as expected in Windows. Although booting back into Ubuntu tells me the same thing. What is that I am doing wrong?
[12:20] <chenthu> jrib: if choose not to install the ubuntu desktop during the install of natty using alternate iso through expert install method....and then reboot i dont even get anything even a command prompt
[12:20] <Deesl> Sidewinder1: ca you see me now?
[12:20] <zky> slow down..
[12:20] <Sidewinder1> DistroJockey, I certainly don't need anyone's help to feel like an idiot. :-)
[12:20] <jrib> fremen_: you don't have to.  But if you leave it blank, your passwords will be stored in plaintext.  Yes, it stores passworsd
[12:20] <ne2k> right, having logged back in with Ubuntu Classic (no effects), workspace switching is back to being near instantaneous, even with loads running
[12:21] <dr_willis> fremen_:  leave it blank and it wont ask again
[12:21] <matlock> gee that worked
[12:21] <jrib> chenthu: does ctrl-alt-f1 bring you to a login prompt?
[12:21] <Kartagis> dli: yes, it said X11Forwarding yes
[12:21] <chenthu> jrib: nope....
[12:21] <matlock> so ppl going to help me or yell at me for asking in the wrong format
[12:21] <DistroJockey> Sidewinder1: lol. I saw the query that time atleast :)
[12:21] <Sidewinder1> Deesl, I can read what you post in this chanel (except your original question) but, no PM.
[12:21] <chenthu> jrib: nothing happens...when i press ctrl + alt + f1 or f2 ...just a black screen
[12:22] <fremen_> is it possible for me to deactivate this application ? preferebly during the installation ? because i dont want my passwords stored
[12:22] <Deesl> Sidewinder1: my question is , how can I make the wireless controller work in Ubuntu?
[12:22]  * Sidewinder1 Thinks he's been on this chanel too long.'
[12:22] <yomeister> does anyone know why wake on lan doesn't work on my laptop if I have the lid closed?
[12:22] <matlock> oh let me guess you're going to ban me for having a broken connection
[12:22] <ne2k> matlock: if people are giving up their time to help you for free, it would be a good idea to heed their requests for you not to be annoying, and not to complain about it and start demanding that they get on with it and help you
[12:22] <matlock> when you won't help me fix it
[12:22] <matlock> figures
[12:23] <Deesl> Sidewinder1: hang on
[12:23] <Pici> matlock: Calm down please.
[12:23] <Sidewinder1> Deesl, I don't use wireless but perhaps this'll help.
[12:23] <ThinkT510> !attitude | matlock
[12:23] <jrib> matlock: please.  We want to help you, but you are making it difficult.  Just ask your detailed question on a single line and wait patiently.  Feel free to repeat it after 10 or 15 minutes if no one at the time knows the answer
[12:23] <Sidewinder1> !wireless | Deesl
[12:23] <matlock> my wifi keeps dropping
[12:23] <dli> Kartagis, did you edit the /etc/ssh/sshd_config your self to enable X11Forwarding?
[12:23] <ne2k> matlock: right. 1. stop using enter key as punctuation 2. if you have a duff connection, best plan would be to put together a description of your problem with as much detail as possible, and pastebin it when you have a connection
[12:24] <ben_q> hey guys, a stupid question, but how can I copy out my directory structure? "ls -R -d" doesn't work, it only gives a "."
[12:24] <Kartagis> dli: it was there
[12:24] <Deesl> Sidewinder1: I will have a look at that page..
[12:24] <jrib> chenthu: does "recovery mode" work?  It's a selection at the grub menu
[12:24] <matlock> Server not found
[12:24] <Wh1zz0> Please what's the command to clear logs on my box? I know the log file is in /etc/var/logs but wondering if there's a quick unversal command?
[12:24] <ne2k> ben_q: ls -R -d / ?
[12:24] <chenthu> jrib: nope...it gives distorted screen and then freezes
[12:24] <ben_q> ne2k, gives "/" ;)
[12:24] <jrib> ben_q: omit the -d?
[12:24] <chenthu> jrib: cant i go without installing the desktop?
[12:24] <dli> Kartagis, still, sudo service ssh restart
[12:24] <ben_q> jrib, without the d i get all files
[12:25] <ben_q> I only want the dirs
[12:25] <ne2k> ben_q: ah, no, probably more like find / -type d
[12:25] <dli> Kartagis, and ssh login again
[12:25] <ben_q> ah
[12:25] <ben_q> great, thanks ne2k
[12:25] <jrib> chenthu: if you install the desktop, does everything work ok?
[12:25] <ne2k> ben_q: find is possibly the single most useful unix executable there is ;-) check out the -exec option
[12:26] <Kartagis> dli: I restarted the server an hour ago
[12:26] <dli> Kartagis, try again :(
[12:26] <matlock> i think it's a dhcp issue
[12:26] <matlock> cause i just set to static and it seems to be better
[12:26] <ne2k> Wh1zz0: this ain't windows. a log file is a file. if you want to remove it, just remove it.
[12:26] <matlock> nope, that's not the issue
[12:26] <Kartagis> dli: No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an operation which requires it.
[12:26] <matlock> and nothing on that help page helped
[12:27] <dli> Kartagis, can you try xterm?
[12:27] <BluesKaj> Wh1zz0, its just /var/log
[12:27] <chenthu> jrib: no...i installed the desktop and everything and i get a black screen with errors...found it to be a nvidia issue...but then i was able to log in to a command prompt....beacuse i figured out that this unity desktop is a problem i dercided not to install unity and go ahead with gnome...
[12:27] <Kartagis> dli: xterm:  DISPLAY is not set
[12:28] <jrib> chenthu: but now you don't want gnome?
[12:28] <dli> Kardos, DISPLAY=:10.0 xterm
[12:28] <bencc> what is the ubuntu equivalent of the php-xml-5.2.17 package in centos?
[12:28] <ne2k> matlock: DHCP is very unlikely to be the source of a second-by-second disconnect and reconnect problem on wireless
[12:28] <matlock> see here's my issue. its worked for the last 3 months, i go to log in today, type in my password on the gnome login screen it acts like its' logging in, but kicks me back to the login screen and now won't hold a stable connection via wifi
[12:28] <BluesKaj> Kartagis,are you trying to open an app ?
[12:29] <Kartagis> BluesKaj: yes
[12:29] <Kartagis> BluesKaj: just run a GUI configuration program
[12:29] <chenthu> jrib: i want gnome...and i dont have wired internet connection...so i cant just use apt-get to install gnome....so i thought of skipping desktop install and the later download gnome or kde if gnome to responds the same way and install it using terminal..
[12:29] <matlock> ne2k, then give me some troubleshooting steps besides a friggen howto that's last updated in 2006
[12:29] <jrib> chenthu: why not just use the desktop install?
[12:30] <BluesKaj> use either nautilus or gedit with sudo , like , sudo nameofapp &
[12:30] <ne2k> matlock: I didn't give you a howto, and I don't like your attitude
[12:30] <jrib> chenthu: you just select "classic" at the login screen
[12:30] <Ynodde> bencc: apt-cache search php-xml
[12:30] <BluesKaj> use either nautilus or gedit with sudo , like , sudo nameofapp & , Kartagis
[12:30] <Ynodde> bencc:this should help you out
[12:31] <Kartagis> BluesKaj: I don't have X, I don't have DISPLAY set
[12:31] <bencc> Ynodde: I see several matches but still don't know which one
[12:31] <chenthu> jrib: desktop install comes up with four errors and get a black screen....but i can access terminal... all this using alternate cd install...casue my nomal desktop cd install doesnt install at all....and i am installing through usb
[12:31] <jrib> chenthu: what errors?
[12:32] <Kartagis> dli: xterm Xt error: Can't open display: %s
[12:32] <matiu> I screwed up my xorg.conf .. easy way to get back ubuntu's one ?
[12:32] <chenthu> jrib: nautrilus can create directory - error 1
[12:32] <Kartagis> dli: I exported DISPLAY
[12:32] <jrib> matiu: ubuntu's one is blank/doesn't exist I believe
[12:32] <matlock> well i come in here asking for help, and am told to detail my issue... stop asking multiple lines, here's a couple of help.ubuntu.com links that are apparently for noobs setting up a first time os, instead of giving you a couple of commands to figure out what started this problem we're going to tell you we don't like your attitude, throw a couple of autotexts at you and just generally tell you what didn't start the problem
[12:32] <dli> Kartagis, export DISPLAY=:10.0
[12:33] <chenthu> jrib: system has encountered error: report or cancel - error 2
[12:33] <Kartagis> dli: xterm Xt error: Can't open display: %s
[12:33] <g0th> hi
[12:33] <jrib> chenthu: hmm, I have not seen that before.  Did you checksum your downloaded iso?
[12:33] <g0th> whenever I run xpdf I get "Segmentation fault"
[12:33] <g0th> I upgraded the version already several times but it remains the same
[12:34] <ne2k> if I start a session with "Classic -- no effects", and then look in compiz settings manager, all the effects are still "on" in there -- where is the place that they get temporarily disabled for this session? I'm trying to get to the source of my slow workspace switching problem having upgraded to Natty
[12:34] <dli> Kartagis, export DISPLAY=localhost:10.0
[12:34] <chenthu> jrib: i dont remeber the other two erreos..but i browsed every whaere for the answer and even got help from members here....nothig seems to work
[12:34] <chenthu> jrib:  yeah i did a checksum...it matches
[12:35] <jrib> chenthu: I don't know
[12:35] <Kartagis> dli: same
[12:36] <chenthu> jrib: i am sure the problem is with my nvidia driver....i tried diabling nouveau and then stopoping gdm and then installing new downloaded nvidia driver through USB...the driver installs and i get a clean terminal...but again i can get into a desktop
[12:37] <jrib> chenthu: so why not do that?
[12:37] <dli> Kartagis, are you running sudo xterm?, or after sudo -i
[12:37] <g0th> anyone?
[12:37] <g0th> it seems to be a known bug
[12:37] <Kartagis> dli: I'm in sudo -s
[12:37] <chenthu> jrib: the answer is in my previous message...i cant get the desktop again....
[12:37] <g0th> but it is around for like 5 months
[12:38] <jrib> chenthu: why? what happens?
[12:38] <g0th> the package is updated
[12:38] <g0th> so it "seems" as if xpdf was working
[12:38] <g0th> but it does not for me
[12:38] <dli> Kartagis, can you test without sudo first, or at least having told me about the command line you added :(
[12:39] <chenthu> jrib: Nvidia installs but then i get the same 4 errors again while login...and i know those are different from display issues and again no desktop.... :(
[12:39] <Kartagis> dli: do I need to sudo to another user?
[12:39] <chenthu> jrib: is it madatory for me to choose desktop during install?
[12:39] <dli> Kartagis, no, just ssh login, and xterm
[12:39] <jrib> chenthu: my only suggestion is to pastebin the exact 4 errors.  No it's not required that you install desktop
[12:40] <Kartagis> dli: xterm Xt error: Can't open display: %s
[12:40] <chenthu> jrib: ok will do that...i am halfway installing...will post it once i get it...
[12:41] <dnivra> g0th: you get a segmentation fault when you try opening xpdf?
[12:42] <ronin___> Hi, Is in ubuntu any virtual machine?

[12:49] <g0th> dnivra: if I try to open a pdf document
[12:49] <dli> Colin969, you can do-release-upgrade
[12:49] <g0th> dnivra: I just tried "xpdf" then there is no segmentation fault
[12:49] <fer> Hello, someone knows how to switch between 2 graphics "cards"? One is Nvidia Gforce and other is the intel-i3 graphics processor
[12:49] <dnivra> g0th: yeah I can confirm the issue still exists.
[12:49] <Colin969> dli, WIthout a complete reinstall?
[12:49] <g0th> it has something to do with freetype?
[12:49] <g0th> library
[12:49] <Colin969> ROFL
[12:49] <dli> ! KVM | ronin___
[12:49] <dnivra> g0th: someone has to pick up the issue and fix it. I don't know what's the issue-not gone behind why it crashes.
[12:50] <Guest39284> Hello, someone knows how to switch between 2 graphics "cards"? One is Nvidia Gforce and other is the intel-i3 graphics processor
[12:50] <Colin969> THe british citizenship test is retarded xD
[12:50] <dnivra> g0th: why not use evince to view pdf files?
[12:50] <dli> Colin969, reinstallation might be faster though :( up to you, do-release-upgrade or reinstallation
[12:50] <Pici> Colin969: Please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MaverickUpgrades
[12:51] <g0th> xpdf is faster
[12:51] <Colin969> dli, My torrents are throttled, i'll check what Pici sent
[12:51] <ronin___> ubottu: I put KVM in Ubuntu Software Center but It's not any KVM there?
[12:51] <BluesKaj> Guest39284, laptop ? ..there's a switch somewhere on the KB
[12:51] <MrNthDegree> Colin969, dude, what's a "quango"? oh you mean an NGO? (why does a formal test include media-driven terminology?)
[12:51] <dnivra> g0th: I'd prefer soemthing that works :). least right now till the issue is fixed :)
[12:51] <g0th> also the printing is better
[12:52] <dli> Colin969, you can download iso image directly
[12:52] <dli> ronin___, better to read the KVM documentation first
[12:52] <BluesKaj> !PM | Guest39284
[12:52] <Colin969> MrNthDegree,  A Non-deparmental thingy
[12:53] <ronin___> dli: OK
[12:54] <Guest39284> how can i answer to a person here?
[12:55] <speciesUnknown> Guest39284: you are probably mistaking your client's name highlighting with a PM
[12:55] <Michiellll-lapto> anyone got experience installing on an asus t91 ?
[12:55] <MrNthDegree> Colin969, or an NGO that has government ties ;)
[12:55] <speciesUnknown> Guest39284: you just have to mention their name and they will be highlighted, thats how IRC clients work
[12:55] <speciesUnknown> Guest39284: also, try changing your name with the /nick command
[12:55] <Guest39284> speciesUnknown Thanks!
[12:56] <speciesUnknown> enter /nick <new name>
[12:56] <Colin969> MrNthDegree, Well  I dunno xD "What percents muslims in the UK?" Honestly?
[12:56] <Colin969> Pici, Alt +  F2 Doesnt work
[12:57] <Guest39284> Oks, so BluesKaj, some ideas about how to switch the graphics card? And sorry for the PM
[12:57] <MrNthDegree> Colin969, it's a pointless test tbh they should ask what percentage is Jedi :P
[12:57] <Pici> Colin969, MrNthDegree: Can we please stick to Ubuntu support here?  Use #ubuntu-offtopic if you want to chat.
[12:57] <MrNthDegree> sorry Pici >_>
[12:58] <Colin969> Pici, Sorry xD
[12:58] <Colin969> Ill Join
[12:58] <Pici> Colin969: you can use a terminal to run update-manager if thats easier.
[12:59] <BluesKaj> Guest39284, some laptops have a manual switch, sorry I have no experience with that on ubuntu...guess I shouldn't have answered
[12:59] <tiago_> can someone explain what is tty ?
[13:00] <tiago_> and what are the 7 tty terminals for
[13:01] <Guest39284> BluesKaj Thanks anyway.
[13:06] <Clerisy> how to connect to mass storage for nokia e-series phones on ubuntu?
[13:07] <dli> Clerisy, can you mount it as a removable disk?
[13:07] <Clerisy> no dli , read only filesystem
[13:07] <Clerisy> :s
[13:07] <ne2k> Clerisy: if you connect a mass storage device, it should just work. plug it in and check dmesg
[13:07] <Clerisy> whats dmesg ne2k ?
[13:07] <ne2k> Clerisy: if it doesn't work, it's probably not a mass storage device
[13:07] <ne2k> Clerisy: type "dmesg" in terminal
[13:08] <dli> Clerisy, can you remount it rw ? sudo mount -o remount,rw /dev/foo
[13:08] <Clerisy> want the output ne2k ?
[13:08] <Clerisy> dli» , when i connect it, I get "Error stating file '/media/72AD-2013/.C11': Input/output error."
[13:08] <ronin___> dli: I can't run this line
[13:08] <Clerisy> and ne2k , when I put the usb in the phone, it says "mass storage device"
[13:08] <ronin___> cat /sys/hypervisor/properties/capabilities
[13:09] <ronin___> actually the hypervisioe does not exist
[13:09] <ne2k> Clerisy: I'm not sure I get you. can you describe the whole setup? I thought you had a phone that you wanted to access as a mass-storage device on a desktop
[13:10] <Clerisy> ne2k» I'm connected my Nokia E63 phone to my computer via usb coord. When I hook the USB into the phone, I click "Mass Storage". Then that error pops up and I cant write or view the files on the phone, which is what I'm trying to do
[13:10] <dli> ronin___, have you started the qemu?
[13:11] <ne2k> Clerisy: do you know that this is a supported feature of the phone?
[13:11] <ronin___> dli: How I have to start?
[13:11] <Clerisy> ne2k» huh?
[13:12] <ne2k> Clerisy: pastebin the output of "lsusb -v" with the phone connected
[13:12] <ne2k> Clerisy: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1327147
[13:12] <Clerisy> the output is over 100lines of scrollback ne2k
[13:14] <ne2k> Clerisy: according to that forum thread, upgrading the firmware on the phone (via windows) makes it work
[13:14] <Clerisy> don't use windows ne2k
[13:14] <Clerisy> lol
[13:15] <dli> ronin___, don't worry about it :(
[13:16] <allu2> is there any known reason why my eeepc 1001px's harddrive made "nack" noise every few second(five?) on ubuntu 11.04 (just asking since i don't have it installed anymore)
[13:16] <ronin___> dli: I need to install a virtual machine to install ubuntu on it
[13:16] <dli> ronin___, cat /proc/cpuinfo is enough to see whether your CPU supports KVM
[13:16] <ronin___> dli: and install some program
[13:17] <jzbl> allu2: hdd heads parking?
[13:17] <ronin___> dli: KVM is it right for this problem
[13:17] <allu2> jzbl: i guess, but the fact it did this noise every five sec while idling made me paranoid :P
[13:17] <dli> ronin___, KVM is better, if your CPU supports it, otherwise, you may try vbox
[13:18] <jzbl> allu2: you can tune it using laptop-confing or hdparm :)
[13:18] <ronin___> dli: Yes my support both of the cpu
[13:19] <jzbl> allu2: there are few docs on this and AFAIK bug logged for load cycle SMART status too high...
[13:19] <Clerisy> ne2k» anything?
[13:20] <allu2> jzbl: ok, this problem doesn't occure on opensuse, but lack of packages compared to debian based distros annoys me :P
[13:20] <dli> ronin___, then, follow the ubuntu doc to install KVM, and guest OS, and you can use a program like ksnapshot or gnome-screenshot to get pictures of the installation (KVM window)
[13:21] <viks> anybody using mongodb on ubuntu?
[13:22] <paultrafalgar> #ac100
[13:23] <MrNthDegree> Why does Ubuntu use KVM as the main method?  VirtualBox is far superior for desktop use and supports HVM/VT too :|
[13:24] <maulana> hai all, am need chenge maulana@maulana:/$ on my terminal to maulana@pc-one:/$
[13:24] <ikonia> MrNthDegree: kvm is probably the most advanced virtualisation around and is in hot development, hence ubuntu's direction
[13:24] <supinps> Hello
[13:24] <ikonia> maulana: is your PC called maulana ?
[13:24] <mgolisch> edit host file and /etc/hostname and reboot
[13:24] <MrNthDegree> ikonia, is there anything you can use it with besides QEMU? :|
[13:25] <ikonia> mgolisch: no !
[13:25] <maulana> ikonia, yes
[13:25] <mgolisch> ikonia: why not?
[13:25] <ikonia> maulana: ok you have 2 choices, 1.) change the hostname. 2.) change the prompt, which do you want
[13:25] <ikonia> mgolisch: because unless you change the hostfile too, you'll lock him out of his machine as sudo
[13:25] <maulana> ikonia, how to ?
[13:25] <ikonia> maulana: which do you want to do ?
[13:26] <maulana> ikonia,  maulana@maulana:/$ to maulana@pc-one:/$
[13:27] <ikonia> maulana: yes, you can either a.) change the hostname of the machine, b.) change only the prompt, which do you want
[13:28] <maulana> ikonia, how to step by step for b) change only the prompt
[13:28] <ikonia> maulana: the prompt is controlled by the enviornment variable PS1
[13:28] <supinps> leave
[13:28] <maulana> ikonia, step please
[13:29] <ElTimo> Does anyone have any experience with Bumblebee?
[13:29] <ikonia> maulana: if you set the prompt to PS1=[u\h \W]\$ it will work
[13:29] <ikonia> maulana: sorry, that's wrong
[13:29] <ikonia> maulana: PS1=[u\one-pc \W]\$
[13:29] <ikonia> maulana: that it the correct option

[13:35] <YankDownUnder> i0x71, Have you tried doing a mode to the grub default (/etc/default/grub) by adding the i915.modeset=1 and re-running update-grub to see if that takes care of the issue?

[13:36] <YankDownUnder> Clerisy, I've got a Nokia E63 and the only file system I can see is when I use an SD card in the phone - otherwise, I don't have access to the "built in" memory.
[13:36] <ikonia> Clerisy: then it's not supported

[13:38] <YankDownUnder> i0x71, In the log you see "i915", right? So you can try (it's a quick try) by adding "i915.modeset=0" or "i915.modeset=1" after the "quiet spash" in the /etc/default/grub => and then run "update-grub" => reboot

[13:40] <YankDownUnder> i0x71, I'd still give that "fix" a try...the kernel might be confused slightly, however, I've used it on "non Intel" servers when strange issues have cropped up...

[13:45] <YankDownUnder> Clerisy, The "built in" memory IS read only...and can only be accessed with the Nokia PC Suite...however, if you have a micro SD in the phone, you can do as you wish with that mate.

[13:45] <ikonia> maulana: then there is something wrong with your enviornment

[13:48] <dyd> guys i have compiz-fusion enabled all is ok, but my desktop icons aren't updated
[13:48] <YankDownUnder> i0x71, Just "upgrade" and not "dist-upgrade" ?
[13:49] <YankDownUnder> bustaplz, Why not install the "Samba Server Configuration Tool" and have it just create a Samba configuration for ya?
[13:49] <i0x71> YankDownUnder: yup did that
[13:49] <YankDownUnder> i0x71, Right oh - just was checking mate...
[13:49] <i0x71> YankDownUnder: hopefully that fixes it, but personaly dont have too many hopes
[13:50] <YankDownUnder> i0x71, Just for a giggle and a grin, what do you see when you do an "lsmod | grep intel" => do you see "intel_agp" anywhere in there?
[13:51] <i0x71> YankDownUnder: nope, dont get any output at all
[13:51] <YankDownUnder> i0x71, Just checking...

[13:56] <demian> i have 2 eth in my ubuntu
[13:56] <italoxp> demian, tell us more about the problem
[13:56] <demian> eth0 works well
[13:56] <demian> but eth1 won't up
[13:57] <demian> can i paste my ifconfig here
[13:57] <YankDownUnder> i0x71, Strange all this - however, you've got a trick fix for the moment - or at least you'll know if the machine doesn't lock up...but that's just freakin strange...and having read through the Ubu forum posts on it, well, it's just freaky.
[13:58] <i0x71> YankDownUnder: yup, i went through most of pages that show up under this issue, it seems that everyone has a different cause

[13:58] <YankDownUnder> i0x71, What's the time frame for the crashes again?
[14:00] <demian> halo?
[14:00] <LightningTH> morning. Every morning for 10 to 20 minutes my computer bogs down. uptime shows a load average of 5.00 or higher when it occurs. both top and gnome-system-monitor, both ran as root to show all processes, shows no cpu usage. this is a fairly clean ubuntu 10.10 install. any ideas of how i can figure out why the load average is so high?
[14:01] <i0x71> YankDownUnder: well it doesnt seem to be constant, yesterday it worked for a few hours then crashed, then crashed in an hour or so, then in a few hours again, then when i came in in the morning it was dead again
[14:01] <sipior> demian: i think we were waiting for a more complete description of the problem.
[14:01] <Loqus> How do I install 802.1q VLAN support without the package manager?
[14:01] <edbian> LightningTH: Does it happen at the same time everymorning?   Same time relative to something (login?)
[14:01] <edbian> Loqus: vlan?
[14:01] <i0x71> YankDownUnder: specificaly it seems that i get this kworker process in those messages
[14:02] <Loqus> VLAN - Virtual LAN
[14:02] <YankDownUnder> i0x71, Right oh...so no "apparent" pattern. Dang...that sucks...well, fingers crossed...and hey, you've removed any unnecessary services and the likes, ya?
[14:02] <LightningTH> edbian, always around 10am although i've had it occur in the afternoon at times. by 10am i've already been using it for a couple hours
[14:02] <demian> i have installed ubuntu with ltsp in my pc
[14:02] <i0x71> YankDownUnder: ya, there its a preety bare box
[14:02] <LightningTH> it can't be network related as the computer is a test computer isolated to itself
[14:02] <demian> my pc have 2 eth card
[14:02] <YankDownUnder> i0x71, I still have it in my mind that it's trying to put a non-existent device to sleep...however, hey, as my missus likes to point out, I'm often wrong... ;)
[14:03] <demian> eth0 connect very well but eth1 won't up
[14:03] <edbian> LightningTH: kworker is a kernel thread.  What are the specs on this box?
[14:03] <sipior> demian: you'll find you have more luck if you describe the problem in one or two longer entries (no one is going to trouble themselves to scroll back over several pages to piece together all the information about your problem)
[14:03] <i0x71> YankDownUnder: this is what i get btw: INFO: task kworker/9:2:111111 blocked for more than 120 seconds. "echo 0 > proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message"
[14:03] <demian> ok
[14:03] <i0x71> YankDownUnder: im sure it will disable the message, dunno about the crashes though
[14:04] <LightningTH> quad core xeon 3.2ghz, 6gb memory
[14:04] <YankDownUnder> i0x71, Far out...well, I'd personally prefer to SEE the messages...but that's me...
[14:04] <i0x71> edbian: its a 16 core sun box
[14:04] <edbian> LightningTH: oh wow.
[14:04] <LightningTH> all 4 cpu's peak out according to gnome-system-monitor but all processes show 0% for cpu usage so i figure some thread is the cause but unsure how to spot it
[14:05] <edbian> LightningTH: I think it's the kernel
[14:05] <LightningTH> even the system monitor is slow and unresponsive, windows take a moment to redraw. give it 20 minutes and it goes away
[14:05] <i0x71> YankDownUnder: anyhow mate, thanks
[14:05] <LightningTH> ok, any ideas why the kernel would freak out or how to maybe gain more info on it?
[14:05] <YankDownUnder> LightningTH, Have you attempted to tweak our your /etc/sysctrl.conf to see if that helps? especailly the vm settings?
[14:05] <LightningTH> YankDownUnder: hadn't thought about it
[14:06] <YankDownUnder> LightningTH, now you have...
[14:06] <edbian> LightningTH: oh wait, kworker would show up in top
[14:06] <drudge01> i looooooove ubuntu!
[14:06] <LightningTH> YankDownUnder: that is all commented out and the box is non-networked
[14:06] <demian> i have installed ubuntu with ltsp in my pc that have two ethernet card (in a future i call eth). but when i configured dhcpd.conf and i restarted the service eth1 always disconnected. eth1 i used to switch client either eth0 used for isp connection
[14:07] <TSCDan> So, does anybody know if it's possible to run multiple instances of samba on ubuntu 10.04?
[14:07] <edbian> TSCDan: as a client or as a server?  What is the purpose of doing such a thing?
[14:08] <iceroot> TSCDan: yes but why you need that?
[14:08] <demian> ?
[14:08] <YankDownUnder> LightningTH, Mate, there's heaps of pages on "tweaks" for the /etc/sysctl.conf - Google - you'll be amazed at the stuff you'll find - and as well, making changes to the "brown bag" configuration will help with overall performance - the one that comes packaged is rather, well, plain-jane.
[14:08] <iceroot> TSCDan: we are using samba3 and samba4 on a machine (debian)
[14:08] <sipior> demian: the ifconfig output you pasted was for eth1?
[14:08] <demian> yes
[14:09] <TSCDan> edbian: As a server. I have a server that needs to offer up shares on two separate domains and be joined to those domains. I've found several docs on running multiple instances of samba but it seems like things have changed since they were written (8.10 was the latest I could find)
[14:09] <sipior> demian: and those values are appropriate for the network you are connecting to?
[14:09] <demian> yes
[14:10] <sipior> demian: i mean, the link is clearly up. what does your routing table look like?
[14:10] <edbian> TSCDan: That's a good reason to run more than one :)  I am fairly certain samba has not changed since 8.10  Is there anything specific about those tutorials that are causing you issues?  I can translate to 11.04
[14:10] <TSCDan> edbian: It's not the samba config that seems to have changed but rather how the services are invoked.
[14:11] <Phase> I've been having problems getting the proper audio device selected as default, it's being detected, etc fine. Would anyone mind looking at things for me? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11095067
[14:11] <Phase> This is on Lubuntu*
[14:11] <edbian> TSCDan: we now use: sudo service samba start
[14:11] <julian__> hey gays, i have  a problem with install the wlan bradcom to acer 4551?
[14:11] <TSCDan> edbian: Ie, they now use the upstart jobs instead of init.d scripts
[14:11] <demian> my computer connect to the internet and other clients connect with my pc
[14:11] <edbian> TSCDan: It's a bit of a tongue twister
[14:12] <LarsT> hio
[14:12] <LarsT> hi
[14:12] <demian> sory bad english
[14:12] <edbian> TSCDan: yeah that's not that big of a differenc though :)  sudo service X start is equivalent to sudo /etc/init.d/<service> start
[14:12] <julian__> hey gays, i have  a problem with install the wlan bradcom to acer 4551?
[14:12] <TSCDan> edbian: Actually, it looks like vice versa since the init.d scripts actually call the service apps :-)
[14:12] <ikonia> julian__: please don't call people that
[14:12] <edbian> julian__: sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer
[14:13] <syrinx_> lol

[14:13] <julian__> sorry
[14:13] <|rt|> I have a system that has multiple drives that are having issues and the logs show errors identified by ATA channel but how do I get to the ata channel to device mapping?
[14:13] <TSCDan> edbian: This is the site I was following. Right above the "Windows Browsable and NMB" section it mentions that the init script will take all .conf files and start an instance for them, but that doesn't seem to be the case on my 10.04 box. http://www.brainforge.nl/infra-stiveca/SAMBA/Running%20multiple%20instances%20of%20SaMBa%20on%20Ubuntu%208.html
[14:13] <sipior> demian: so, one of your cards is connected to your modem, and the other to your home network? which one doesn't work?
[14:14] <|rt|> it doesn't seem to be in any order...as I have identified ATA6 as sdc
[14:14] <demian> home network
[14:15] <edbian> TSCDan: Instead of running /etc/init.d/samba run sudo service samba start
[14:15] <sipior> demian: you have a dhcp server assigning addresses to devices on that network?
[14:15] <TSCDan> edbian: I've tried that; it only starts one process
[14:16] <fremen_> hello everyone
[14:16] <demian> No subnet declaration for start (no IPv4 addresses).
[14:16] <ikonia> demian: you need to set up a range
[14:16] <demian> i have made configuration options in /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf
[14:16] <demian> and restart all service
[14:17] <sipior> demian: what happens when you try "sudo dhclient eth1"?
[14:17] <LightningTH> Made a few tweaks, see if they improve anything
[14:17] <ikonia> demian: that's not where it looks for hte config file
[14:17] <LightningTH> thanks :)
[14:17] <edbian> TSCDan: It says above you can also start a process using sudo /usr/sbin/smbd
[14:17] <demian> stuck
[14:18] <sipior> demian: you need to configure your dhcp server properly (or just use fixed addresses)
[14:18] <demian> and i have edited /etc/network/interface
[14:18] <edbian> TSCDan: They mention /etc/init.d/samba needs to be altered (which is true) but they don't say how.  To manually start multiple processes sudo /usr/sbin/smbd should work.  For having them auto-start when the system boots you need to edit /etc/init.d/samba but they don't say how ! :P
[14:19] <demian> still same
[14:19] <TSCDan> edbian: That's my point :-) It seems like things have changed since 8.10 so these instructions are no longer valid
[14:19] <sipior> demian: well, what are the contents of /etc/network/interfaces?
[14:19] <edbian> TSCDan: They don't seem valid for 8.10
[14:19] <edbian> TSCDan: Can you  manually start more than one processes?
[14:19] <sipior> demian: could you pastebin that?

[14:21] <Furai`> REJOICE!
[14:21] <fremen_> i have a problem with ubuntu 10.10 at geforce gt 540m graphics card. it seems some other people are suffering from it as well (https://bugs.launchpad.net/nvidia-drivers-ubuntu/+bug/660596). when i try to install proparity driver to fully use the graphics card, i cannot reach my graphical account, instead gives me a console login where i am stuck, can anyone help me with this ? is there are a solution ?
[14:22] <TSCDan> edbian: It looks like starting multiple processes manually does in fact work
[14:22] <edbian> fremen_: remove that driver ;)
[14:22] <demian> http://paste.ubuntu.com/653808/
[14:22] <chenthu> is there a way to add the drivers in the install cd so i could install the proper driver while installing and get no errors after installing?
[14:22] <edbian> TSCDan: told ya so!
[14:22] <sipior> demian: drop the gateway line from the stanza for eth1.
[14:23] <TSCDan> edbian: I never doubted that it would, but that doesn't help with getting them to start as a service when the machine boots :P
[14:23] <demian> clearly?
[14:23] <fremen_> well actualy, what i want is, is there are way to use that driver without problems ? :)
[14:23] <edbian> TSCDan: mmm, indeed.  My advice, just put the manual commands in /etc/rc.local
[14:23] <sipior> demian: delete "gateway 192.168.1.3"
[14:23] <edbian> fremen_: That is a harder question.  What happens if you run sudo gdm
[14:24] <TSCDan> edbian: But then I lose the service functionality which is what I'm trying to retain
[14:24] <demian> and?
[14:24] <demian> i have delete it
[14:25] <sipior> demian: restart the network interfaces.
[14:25] <demian> ok
[14:25] <fremen_> firstly, can i ask what is the purpose of sudo gdm ? because during console stuch, i tried that because someone else suggested it and it didnt work
[14:25] <edbian> TSCDan: You loose the ability to run sudo service samba start.  Who cares?  You have /etc/init.d/smbd start and you can get it to auto-load at boot by putting that in /etc/rc.local
[14:26] <edbian> fremen_: gdm is the graphical login screen.  Pretty much would make ubuntu back to normal if it worked.
[14:26] <edbian> fremen_: I expect it won't work but I'm interested in the errors it gives
[14:26] <chenthu> guys is there a way to add the drivers in the install cd so i could install the proper driver while installing and get no errors after installing?
[14:27] <phper_> Hello! What is the difference between Ubuntu and Debian? Are they essentially the same?
[14:27] <demian> still same
[14:27] <chenthu> phper_: ubuntu is based on debian
[14:27] <sipior> demian: how are you testing connectivity of the eth1 interface?
[14:27] <edbian> phper_: Ubuntu has things 'added on' and it has a faster release cycle.  Debian is less user friendly
[14:27] <fremen_> oh i remebered :) it says that  xorg is not found /reach/etc... but when i checked it, it was there with its latest version
[14:28] <allu2> edbian: debian has testing tough.
[14:28] <edbian> phper_: The biggest difference is probably the release cycle.
[14:28] <demian> http://paste.ubuntu.com/653810/
[14:28] <edbian> allu2: Yeah I guess those are very similar
[14:28] <blkdg> hello, i am using ubuntu 10.10. if i use apt-get purge apache2, and then reboot, will that remove the server?  I can still see 127.0.0.1
[14:28] <allu2> uh the hardness of choise, debian, ubuntu, xubuntu or lubuntu :P
[14:29] <edbian> blkdg: It should...
[14:29] <sipior> demian: the dhcp output is irrelevant, because you are not using it to assign addresses at the moment. does the link itself work?
[14:29] <i0x71> anyone know where i can get mysql 5.5 for 11.04 on a third party repo ?
[14:29] <Sidewinder1> blkdg, Don't forget "sudo".
[14:29] <pythonirc101> is this the latest ubuntu server -- 10.04.2 - i386 - 690918KB ?
[14:29] <demian> i have configure it at /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf
[14:30] <sipior> demian: does the link itself work?
[14:30] <demian> how to test it?
[14:30] <blkdg> it dosn't. and to make matters worse, i can't login with phpmyadmin either.
[14:30] <DJones> pythonirc101: The latest ubuntu server will be 11.04.?, but 10.04.2 looks to be the latest long term support version of the server edition
[14:30] <blkdg> i've purged that to .
[14:30] <sipior> demian: you have other machines on this network? set a static address for them, and then see if they are reachable.
[14:31] <tkeith> How can I upgrade a specific package, only if it's installed on the system?
[14:31] <demian> ok
[14:31] <pythonirc101> DJones: Thanks
[14:31] <Dreamscape> hello all, at some point i used a installer that could install any linux distu INSIDE windows like Wubi does for ubuntu??? does anyone know trhis program? i've forgotten its name
[14:31] <blkdg> Package apache2 is not installed, so not removed
[14:31] <blkdg> that'smy msg
[14:32] <tmade_> hello, i need some help with a script. I have a text-file with following content: [u'test101', u'test102', u'test103']. I have to search and replace to get just the first occurence of test (test101 as return). how?
[14:32] <norbert_> hey all, why do half of the pages at ubuntuforums.org not work properly?
[14:32] <edbian> tkeith: It is already up to date.  That is the point of the package manager
[14:32] <iceroot> tkeith: if [ dpkg -l | grep packagename | grep ^ii ]; then apt-get install packagename; fi    something like that
[14:32] <coz_> norbert_,  give me the link to the page that is not working
[14:32] <blkdg> tmade  ask in the # of the language youre usung
[14:32] <upp> how can i know with port such aplication are using
[14:33] <norbert_> coz_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=449952
[14:33] <fremen_> edbian_: if you are not busy, can you answer me please ? i already posted the information you requested
[14:33] <upp> how can i know wich port such aplication are using
[14:33] <coz_> norbert_,  it came up here ?
[14:33] <tmade_> upp: bash
[14:33] <Sidewinder1> norbert_, Perhaps you're looking at "archived" pages,? They are "read-only"?
[14:33] <coz_> norbert_,  are you logged into the forums?
[14:33] <tkeith> iceroot: Thank you, that looks like what I need
[14:33] <blkdg> thanks anyhow
[14:34] <tkeith> edbian: I don't do full upgrades when I can avoid it, this is on a production server
[14:34] <norbert_> I'm also wondering why xvidcap in the repositories is compiled for use with /dev/dsp, even though Ubuntu has no /dev/dsp support?
[14:34] <Sidewinder1> norbert_, "You are browsing a READ only archive of the main support categories..."
[14:34] <norbert_> Sidewinder1: dunno man... look via Google for this and pick the top link: compile xvidcap ubuntu
[14:34] <motaka2> Hello in ubuntu when I use terminal to connect to mysql server it shows me fields with persian characters replaced with ???s is there a soloution ?
[14:35] <norbert_> Sidewinder1: okay, so why are read only pages unavailable to visitors who aren't logged in? :|
[14:35] <norbert_> with such pages, I have to go back to Google and use cache:<url> to see them
[14:35] <popey> norbert_: xvidcap is badly broken IMO, I'd use something else like ffmpeg
[14:35] <Sidewinder1> norbert_, Because, I guess, that they can still provide answers> :-)
[14:35] <upp> tmade_: with bash cmd i don't get anything
[14:36] <demian> dc
[14:36] <demian> always dc
[14:36] <coz_> norbert_,  I agree,, ffmpeg will most likely give better results
[14:36] <sipior> demian: ?
[14:36] <norbert_> Sidewinder1: I don't mean why they are read only, I mean why I can't see the page as a non-logged in person
[14:36] <demian> the eth1 dc when i try ping
[14:36] <Sidewinder1> norbert_, Can't answer that; I'm sorry.
[14:36] <coz_> norbert_,  sometimes if there are download links  or even images to see,,  you need to be logged on
[14:36] <upp> how can i know wich port such aplication are using
[14:37] <norbert_> ffmpeg will make proper screen recordings? hum... I'm used to using xvidcap (I used to use Debian)
[14:37] <coz_> norbert_,  ffmpeg will do it
[14:37] <demian> maybe the ethernet card have aproblem
[14:37] <Sidewinder1> norbert_, You'd have to ask one of the Mods. there.
[14:37] <popey> norbert_: yes, I used it to make some
[14:37] <sipior> demian: can you ping the interface itself?
[14:37] <tmade_> upp: i´m using sh-shell. i know it can be done with "sed", but don´t know how.
[14:37] <demian> i can't
[14:37] <sipior> demian: can you pastebin the output?
[14:38] <bastidrazor> upp: sudo netstat -napt | grep programname
[14:38] <popey> norbert_: http://lwn.net/Articles/452233/ thats how I do screencasting
[14:38] <Sidewinder1> norbert_, Probably has something to do with "bots" and preventing "them" access?
[14:38] <tmade_> somebody here who´s familar with "sed"?
[14:38] <sipior> tmade_: lots of people, i would expect.
[14:39] <coz_> norbert_,    http://verb3k.wordpress.com/2010/01/26/how-to-do-proper-screencasts-on-linux/
[14:39] <tmade_> sipior: i assume :-)
[14:39] <Aleuck> anybody here uses mpd?
[14:39] <dc5ala> norbert_, VLC also can record Desktop, only used one time for testing though, and there is gtkrecordmydesktop
[14:40] <coz_> Aleuck,   I do not ..sorry
[14:40] <coz_> Aleuck,   did you take a look at this?   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MPD
[14:41] <Aleuck> coz_, yes, I did as explained and mpd is running and playins except there is no audio output...

[14:43] <jo-erlend> I can boot a live session from a memory stick and that works perfectly, but when I install, I get problems with lightdm, making it unusable. Can someone provide a link so I can understand why?
[14:43] <oktalogic> i just deleted my /etc/profile by misstake. could anyone maybe pastbin the standard one?
[14:43] <coz_> Aleuck,  I would also suggest the  ##linux channel
[14:43] <x64> Jo, have you read the Ubuntu doc for LightDM?
[14:44] <jo-erlend> oktalogic, it's from Oneiric, but I guess it'll do the trick: http://paste.ubuntu.com/653829/
[14:44] <coz_> oktalogic,  you mean the bash_completion.sh ?
[14:44] <coz_> oktalogic,  under profile.d
[14:45] <jo-erlend> x64, I was actually talking more in general. Why does a live session work well but installing the same software does not.
[14:45] <Aleuck> coz_, ill try #mpd channel as well
[14:45] <coz_> Aleuck,   that sounds even better :)
[14:46] <coz_> oktalogic,   you want a copy of the  /etc/profile.d  directory ... yes?
[14:46] <oktalogic> coz_: nope the /etc/profile
[14:46] <TheMatrix3000> anyone here able to help with setting up dansguardian and ldap

[14:46] <oktalogic> i could offcourse check which package that owns it and then reinstall this package but... :) i was a bit lazy
[14:47] <Luxel> hi
[14:47] <Luxel> some ones can help me with a server on ubuntu?
[14:47] <ikonia> Luxel: if you ask a question sure
[14:47] <motaka2> Hello in ubuntu when I use terminal to connect to mysql server it shows me fields with persian characters replaced with ???s is there a soloution ?
[14:47] <compdoc> what kind of help?
[14:47] <coz_> oktalogic,    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/132551/profile.tar.gz
[14:47] <x64> ghostnikll, have you reduced your partition size so that you could install Fedora?
[14:48] <TheMatrix3000> compdoc: was that to me?
[14:48] <coz_> oktalogic,   let me know when you have that ,, I want to delete it from dropbox
[14:48] <ghostnik11> x64: no i chose the option that said custom partition in installer
[14:48] <oktalogic> coz_: thanks a lot man!
[14:48] <compdoc> motaka2, Im not sure a shell can display persian characters
[14:48] <Luxel> ikonia please answer the pv
[14:48] <oktalogic> coz_: its taken!
[14:48] <x64> ghostnikll, so is the partition your attempting to install to actually have enough space?
[14:48] <coz_> oktalogic,  cool
[14:48] <compdoc> TheMatrix3000, no sir, it was for Luxel
[14:49] <norbert_> ffmpeg works, thanks folks
[14:49] <motaka2> compdoc: It can ? I can write in persian inside
[14:49] <ikonia> Luxel: no, please ask in the channel
[14:49] <Luxel> ok
[14:49] <Luxel> i have a server on apache
[14:49] <Luxel> but i still have a problem
[14:49] <compdoc> TheMatrix3000, for those kinds of things, I use firewal distros
[14:49] <Luxel> i cant open or redirect the ports to the ip
[14:50] <Luxel> for web access
[14:50] <TheMatrix3000> compdoc: which distro?
[14:50] <ghostnik11> when i am in my ubuntu 11.04 it says over 50 gb of free space when in home folder, x64 but when i am in installer says i have no free space, is it b/c i made ubuntu 11.04 take the entire hard drive when installed it?
[14:50] <dyd> guys i have compiz-fusion enabled all is ok, but all my desktops are like frozen, icons aren't updated if i save something on the desktop, and i can't select icons (if i double click them it works)
[14:50] <ThinkT510> !enter | luxel
[14:50] <compdoc> untangle, efw endian firewall, and there are others
[14:50] <coz_> dyd,  how did you enable compiz?
[14:50] <Luxel> ok
[14:50] <dyd> coz_: by the panel system -> preferences -> compiz...
[14:51] <x64> ghostnikll, it sounds like it. I would use GParted from the LiveCD to shrink your current partition so that you could install Fedora on the freed space.
[14:51] <Luxel> so, i need passthru unlisten ports xd, any ones can help?
[14:51] <coz_> dyd, that would be  ccsm which is the settings manager not compiz itself though
[14:51] <coz_> dyd,   are you on ubuntu in classic mode?
[14:51] <dyd> coz_: yes
[14:51] <coz_> dyd,   in terminal    compiz --replace & disown
[14:52] <dc5ala> ghostnik11, what you need is free partition with enough space
[14:52] <coz_> dyd,  that should theoretically start it or give erros as to what is wrong
[14:52] <Luxel> no ones know?
[14:52] <phper_> got to go
[14:52] <ghostnik11> x64: okay will do, i was saying that i wanted fedora to have 10gbs and my hard drive is a 100 gb but think its really like 90+, dc5ala
[14:52] <phper_> good evening
[14:52] <dyd> it's blocked on the line "Setting U pdate "sensitivity"
[14:52] <GD1000> guys.... in this channel are there any PROs whoa re still using 10.10? and why?
[14:52] <x64> ghostnikll, make sure that you format the space you clear as an ext file system
[14:52] <coz_> dyd,  that's a new one one me o0
[14:52] <coz_> dyd,    are your windows  wobbly?
[14:52] <ghostnik11> x64: wait say that again
[14:52] <ninjaspounced> hi, I've been installing Ubuntu 11.04 for the first time -- but every time I run the first upgrade, it (afterwards) asks to update the grub information and that renders me unable to boot (grub can't find any partitions, drops into a cli)... only way I've been able to solve that is to just reinstall ubuntu and not update it... any advice?
[14:53] <dyd> coz_: yes i enabled all effects
[14:53] <x64> ghostnikll, When you free up the space format it as ext 2,3 or 4 so Fedora can locate it.
[14:53] <coz_> dyd,   ok explain again what is happening
[14:53] <dyd> coz_: ah no ok now seems it finished
[14:53] <ResQue> i am trying to create my own custom live cd, but i am worried that network information such as IP, DNS servers and the like will be loged or saved onto the custom live cd for example resolv.conf can anyone offer some advice
[14:53] <coz_> ah
[14:53] <coz_> dyd,  ok
[14:53] <dyd> coz_: thank you man, now it's fine
[14:53] <dittersdorf> My firefox on ubuntu natty doesn't play sound on flash videos (streaming). is there something to do?
[14:53] <ghostnik11> x64: okay, so i should choose the option skrink ubuntu partition or just use gparted
[14:54] <coz_> dyd,   ok  cool,, you may also want to try easystroke mouse gestures and assign that command to a gesture making it easy to deal with also   make a gesture  for   metacity --replace to get to  the desktop withouth  compiz
[14:54] <dyd> only thing is that my guake terminal window is too much high
[14:54] <ignerious> hello
[14:54] <x64> ghostnikll, either will suffice. I usually do it myself in GParted.
[14:54] <coz_> dyd,  too high on the desktop?
[14:54] <ghostnik11> x64: okay gparted it is then
[14:54] <ignerious> i need some serious help
[14:54] <GD1000> i'm curious to know of all the experts really think 11.04 is upto the mark, hence my prevous Question
[14:54] <dyd> coz_: i can't see the first line
[14:54] <dyd> coz_: but if i press enter several times it works
[14:55] <dc5ala> dittersdorf, have you checked that sound is working at all? e.g. not muted in audio settings
[14:55] <sipior> GD1000: that's a question more appropriate for #ubuntu-offtopic.
[14:55] <x64> ResQue, no changes are written to a LiveCD.
[14:55] <coz_> dyd,    mm
[14:55] <dyd> coz_: may i reinstall
[14:55] <coz_> dyd,  I will have to install guake to test it
[14:55] <ghostnik11> x64: there is no gparted for fedora 15 liveCD, will go with other option then
[14:55] <dittersdorf> dc5ala - :-) sound in general is working great
[14:55] <dyd> coz_:  how can i reinstall a program? remove then install again?
[14:55] <ResQue> x64, i am confused, i am not booting from a live CD i am creating one using squashfs
[14:55] <ignerious> please help
[14:55] <ghostnik11> x64: is there a way i can get gparted even though i am running a live cd
[14:55] <x64> ghostnikll, Ubuntu LiveCD comes with GParted.
[14:56] <dyd> coz_:  or there is a command like "reinstall"
[14:56] <coz_> dyd,  yes  , i would open synaptic package manager for that
[14:56] <ghostnik11> x64: yeah but i am on fedora 15 live cd
[14:56] <ResQue> x64, been i need internet access to update apt sources and install some extra packages like VLC
[14:56] <ignerious> hey any one please help
[14:56] <dyd> coz_: i think i'll try by command line... should it be sudo apt-get remove guake then sudo apt-get install guake right?
[14:56] <coz_> dyd,   there is however,, I would open synaptic package manager ,,, search for the package,, right click and either remove completely or mark for reinstallation
[14:56] <hwilde> !ask | ignerious
[14:56] <x64> ghostnikll, yeah you'll probably have to do autoshrink option.
[14:56] <ThinkT510> ignerious: you'd need to tell us the problem so we can help
[14:56] <coz_> dyd,   yes  sudo apt-get  remove  nameofpackage
[14:57] <coz_> dyd,  you can also do   sudo apt-get autoremove  nameofpackage
[14:57] <ignerious> my ext4 filesystem suddenly crashed
[14:57] <dyd> coz_: any difference between remove / autoremove ?
[14:57] <ignerious> what should i do
[14:57] <nkh> hello I have mint 11 and wireless BCM2046 , bcm driver in cd does not recognize my wireless , what should I Do?!
[14:57] <ResQue> this live CD will be going out to clients and also to people who are currently not clients, i would rather them not have any information about our internal network,
[14:57] <dc5ala> dittersdorf, you can also change sound volume per application. maybe have a look there, else no idea when only flash affected sry :(
[14:57] <GD1000> sipior: no probs. I have another question though - when I installed 10.10, I used 2 partitions - '/' and '/home'. I did this thinking that it will be easier to retain all the package settings and such. But when I intalled 11.04 to '/' and used the existing '/home' thigs went wrong like the sound not working. I have a feeling this is because I used the 10.10's /home folder for 11.04. I want...
[14:57] <GD1000> ...to retain any multimedia files on the HDD. So what's the work around if I can't use same/home partition through various upgrades?
[14:58] <coz_> dyd,  as I recall ,, autoremove will remove any dependencies used "only" by that application
[14:58] <ThinkT510> !fsck | ignerious
[14:58] <dyd> coz_: thank you
[14:58] <coz_> dyd,   remove will just remove the package itself
[14:58] <kantxx> anyone here use apcupsd?
[14:58] <ignerious> i have done that but it is showing this
[14:59] <nkh> hello I have mint 11 and wireless BCM2046 , bcm driver in cd does not recognize my wireless , what should I Do?!
[14:59] <ThinkT510> !mint | nkh

[14:59] <ignerious> Could this be a zero-length partition?
[14:59] <sipior> GD1000: you can continue using the same /home partition, but might want to delete gnome-specific dot-directories. gnome isn't terribly clever about dealing with oudated configuration files.
[14:59] <dittersdorf> dc5ala - thanks! the application  was "ALSA plugin", and not "firefox" as i expected. thanks! it works
[14:59] <coz_> !wireless
[14:59] <Phase> I've been having problems getting the proper audio device selected as default, it's being detected, etc fine. Would anyone mind looking at things for me? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11095067 (Lubuntu)
[14:59] <coz_> !wireless | nkh
[15:00] <GD1000> 'delete' gnome-specifi dot-directories' how do I do that sipior ? And I am guessing I need to delete them BEFORE I boot up my usb installer? While the existing version is still up and running?
[15:00] <hwilde> Phase, pavucontrol
[15:00] <sipior> GD1000: no, just nuke them after the install.
[15:01] <sipior> GD1000: or before it.
[15:01] <redfox> hi, im trying to add an usb device to my virtualbox os and using the steps suggested in the ubuntu wiki, but there is no file "10-vboxdrv.rules".
[15:01] <GD1000> but how exactly do i decide what to delte?  you mean anything that starts with a '.' sipior ?
[15:01] <jo-erlend> I have a raid5 array with lvm2 partitions on it. How do I mount this?
[15:01] <Phase> hwilde: I'll try it, thanks
[15:01] <sktn07> where /how do i find any source file of any software?
[15:01] <hwilde> sktn07, apt-get source
[15:02] <SMJ> What is the best package manager? Synaptic seems to be helpless when downgrading from PPA packages
[15:02] <sipior> GD1000: anything with "gnome" in it is a good bet. if it bothers you, make a backup of all the stuff you care about, erase /home completely, and then copy back what you want.
[15:02] <Phase> hwilde: Connection refused, then it closed
[15:02] <hwilde> Phase, but it let you select the audio device ya?
[15:02] <Phase> no
[15:02] <x64> redfox, what is your guest OS?
[15:02] <redfox> x64: windows 7
[15:02] <Phase> hwilde: No, I started t, it gave me the error, then it closed
[15:03] <GD1000> sipior: i was thinking it would be better if there's a way of having a separate ext4 partition that auto loads with the other default system folders but isn't directly written on by the system except when I copy paste stuff into it.
[15:03] <x64> refox, try http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=29034

[15:03] <x64> redfox* sorry
[15:03] <Phase> coz_: Yup
[15:03] <coz_> Phase,  ooo ok
[15:03] <redfox> x64: thanks, will try
[15:03] <coz_> Phase,  and still nothing?
[15:04] <lukebuntu> is there a possibility to run a userscript before desktop starts ?
[15:04] <SMJ> how often am I allowed to repeat a question?
[15:04] <sipior> GD1000: you can certainly make another partition to use in that fashion, yes.
[15:04] <Phase> coz_: Right, I can use my headset for mumble (voice chat), etc.. because I manually selected it in the audio settings of Mumble, but Youtube/etc there's no sound. I posted everything relevant I could find in that forum post
[15:05] <coz_> SMJ,   fairly often,, not to the point of  every  few secons though
[15:05] <x64> redfox, no problem. Thats for 3.4 I think though.
[15:05] <sipior> SMJ: every ten minutes or so is considered courteous.
[15:05] <GD1000> sipior: but how do i make it behave normal like the system partitions, in the sense, I do'nt want to have to use special softwares like how I do for automounting ntfs partitions
[15:05] <Phase> coz_: This one is mine: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11095067
[15:05] <sipior> SMJ: there's no formal rule :-)
[15:05] <coz_> Phase,  and the sliders in alsamixer are all up and unmuted ...yes?
[15:05] <x64> SMJ, whats the question?
[15:05] <Phase> coz_: Of course
[15:05] <SMJ> What is the best package manager? Synaptic seems to be helpless when downgrading from PPA packages
[15:05] <Phase> coz_: I'm using it 100% properly right now with mumble
[15:05] <sipior> GD1000: 1) Make partition 2) Make filesystem on partition 3) Mount partition where you like
[15:06] <sipior> GD1000: to mount at boot, add the "auto" line to the entry in /etc/fstab
[15:06] <coz_> Phase,   ok this one is puzzling,, I am not a sound expert,, did you also check in the # pulseaudio and #alsa channels?
[15:06] <Phase> coz_: Not yet, this was my first stop
[15:06] <prings> where
[15:06] <Phase> coz_: And that forum post*
[15:06] <prings> lol ok theres where i type something
[15:07] <x64> Ubuntu sound troubleshooting documentation: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[15:07] <GD1000> thanks for that help sipior  Appreciate it :)
[15:07] <coz_> Phase,   could choices  but depending on who is online at the moment,, I would also log into those other channels and even ##linux channel,, might as well get input from various sources  while  you are here :)
[15:07] <sipior> GD1000: yep, have fun
[15:07] <prings> i need some help when ur ready for the next question
[15:07] <coz_> Phase,   "good" choices I meant
[15:07] <Phase> coz_: yeah, ty
[15:08] <oCean> prings: you can just go ahead and write your question here in the channel
[15:08] <Cyber_Akuma> What would be the best way to install Ubuntu without a bootloader so I can use my own thats on a seperate partition?
[15:08] <coz_> Phase,  no problem,, as I said ,, the more channels that may have people that can solve an issue,, the better
[15:08] <Cyber_Akuma> rather, sorry, not like that
[15:08] <Cyber_Akuma> I do want to install a bootloader for ubuntu, but I want to have it be chainloaded from the master bootloader
[15:09] <ThinkT510> Cyber_Akuma: you can choose to install the bootloader to the root partition of your ubuntu install instead of the mbr
[15:09] <prings> ok, so i installed Ubuntu and wine on my old desktop and am trying to play Jade dynasty on it. The game updates and starts as pretty as can be, even better then on xp, but when i log into the game the graphic turn nasty
[15:09] <_kad> hey, i need help!! if i install vmware bundle using ./vmware, how i can remove it ?
[15:09] <prings> looks like its something back from the dos age
[15:10] <Cyber_Akuma> ThinkT510: does the latest version of ubuntu still give me that option when installing? I haven't reinstalled it in a while
[15:10] <x64> ./vmware remove or ./vmware uninstall
[15:10] <oCean> prings: for application help with wine, join the channel #winehq
[15:10] <prings> ok
[15:10] <Cyber_Akuma> Problem being I am going to install multiple distros and I don't want them fighting with their own bootloaders every time there ie a kernel update
[15:11] <ThinkT510> Cyber_Akuma: yes, it should still offer the option
[15:11] <jo-erlend> guess the partitions will be mounted if I reinstall Ubuntu, but that seems a little extreme .)
[15:11] <ThinkT510> Cyber_Akuma: yeah, i have multiple os's too
[15:11] <_kad> thx it works never mind
[15:12] <Cyber_Akuma> ThinkT510: Ok, so as long as I tell it to install the bootloader to the partition instead of the mbr, whenever there is a kerbnel or grub update it will just update gurb on the partition right? Thats what im trying to do
[15:12] <ThinkT510> Cyber_Akuma: yes
[15:12] <Cyber_Akuma> Last time I had ubuntu/suse they would screw up each other's config files for grub when their kernels were updated
[15:12] <Cyber_Akuma> good, thanks :)
[15:20] <genjix> anyone know a good proxy server? easy to setup and use.

[15:22] <jrib> chenthu: sort of, what's up?
[15:22] <chenthu> ThinkT510: thanks bro

[15:24] <chenthu> ThinkT510: bro thank you

[15:32] <Aaronds> Hi how can I list all the user groups available?
[15:32] <x64> Ionite, after that there should be something listening an array of keyring passwords
[15:33] <x64> Right click on them and chose change password
[15:33] <fmauro> Aaronds: just type groups in terminal
[15:33] <Aaronds> fmauro: when I add a group, it doesn't appear there.
[15:34] <fmauro> Aaronds: yes it will only print the groups the user is currently in
[15:34] <x64> Ionite did you get that far?
[15:34] <Aaronds> fmauro: is there a way to view all the groups available for me to add users to?
[15:34] <genii-around> Aaronds: cat /etc/group | cut -d":" -f1
[15:34] <Pici> !floodbots | ignerious
[15:34] <ghostnik11> x64: i will restart and see what happens hopefully fedora maybe by a miracle might see my ubuntu partition
[15:35] <Aaronds> thanks genii-around
[15:35] <Mrokii> Hi all. Is there a way to disable the global settings for function-keys? Like the opening of the help-window when one presses F1?
[15:35] <x64> ghostnikll, If it doesn't, try the link I sent you.
[15:35] <ionite> x64: yes but i left the old password blank and keyed in my ubuntu password it didn't work.

[15:37] <ionite> x64: i get the prompt my password is incorrect
[15:37] <Kingsy> tensorpudding: isnt it the php ide version?
[15:38] <tensorpudding> Kingsy: does that normally come with eclipse?
[15:38] <x64> ionite, do you want to remove it or reset it?
[15:38] <tensorpudding> Kingsy: it probably won't include the PDT plugin, but it might
[15:38] <Kingsy> not sure .. umm
[15:38] <ionite> i want to reset it?
[15:38] <Matr|x> hello error with python script :)
[15:38] <ionite> x64: i want to reset it

[15:38] <ionite> x64: so it wont keep prompting me again and again
[15:39] <Kingsy> tensorpudding: can you install the pdt plugin with apt-get ?
[15:39] <Pici> Matr|x: Have you read the documentation for the script?
[15:39] <x64> "default.keyring" in $HOME/.gnome2/keyrings/
[15:39] <tensorpudding> Kingsy: it might not be packaged
[15:39] <Matr|x> Pici
[15:40] <Matr|x> ImportError: No module named lib
[15:40] <tensorpudding> Kingsy: but you know, you can install PDT from inside Eclipse
[15:40] <Matr|x> this is the error
[15:40] <Kingsy> tensorpudding: ah ok
[15:40] <x64> You'll probably just have to remove them using the command rm ~/.gnome2/keyrings/login.keyring
[15:40] <x64> If you can't access the graphicical password interface.

[15:44] <Pici> Matr|x: 'lib' is very vauge for a module name, I suspect that its looking for something within its pythonpath. I'd look at wherever you got the script from, or maybe the folks in ##python have a better idea of what that module actually is.
[15:44] <Brian_H> I have an odd problem that I think is related to sssd, if I'm connected via wire and can access the ldap server I am able to shut down my laptop, if I'm connected via wireless and can acesses the ldap server at some point I _cannot_ shutdown, the process just stops at a blank screen.  If I'm on wired/wireless and am never able to reach the ldap server I can shut down  I'm using Kubuntu 11.04  does anyone have any tips on how I might further troubleshoot

[15:49] <Pici> chenthu: Where?
[15:49] <chenthu> Pici: cd gdm
[15:49] <Pici> chenthu: That is meaningless unless I know what the current directory you are in is.

[15:49] <chenthu> Pici: /var/lib/
[15:50] <chenthu> Pici: got it?
[15:50] <Pici> chenthu: That path is owned by root and setup so that users cannot normally read from it.
[15:51] <fmauro> chenthu: try "sudo su"
[15:51] <fmauro> chenthu: and then enter the dir
[15:51] <Pici> chenthu: You shouldn't really need to go in there, but you could use 'sudo -i' to gain a root login shell.

[15:57] <Aaronds> How can I add a new user and set their primary group to my own custom group? (Rather than having it set to a group of their own name, I don't want that to be created)
[15:58] <Pici> chenthu: I don't think thats a good idea.  There are a lot of packages that depend on nautilus being installed, and you will have issues if you remove it.
[15:58] <Aaronds> ionite: You need a linux driver
[15:58] <siavoshkc> addgroup then adduser?
[15:59] <jrib> Aaronds: what tool are you using?  adduser or useradd should both be able to do that, see their respective man pages
[15:59] <Aaronds> eh ok jrib, must have been doing something wrong earlier. Cheers.

[16:00] <Aaronds> It'll search for additional drivers automatically

[16:05] <ionite> how do i force close a inactive window in natty? my additonal driver window just hanged on me i think.
[16:05] <Pici> ionite: Thats not a valid answer to the question I was asking.
[16:05] <Pici> ionite: run xkill, then click on the window.
[16:05] <ionite> Pici: yes it's shock wave flash.
[16:05] <ionite> Pici: yes it's shock wave flash.
[16:06] <ionite> type xkill u mean?

[16:06] <Pici> ionite: Shockwave and Flash are two different things. Flash is used on sites like Youtube, Shockwave is a bit older and not really used that much anymore.
[16:06] <ionite> Pici: type xkill on terminal?
[16:06] <siavoshkc> shockwave vs flash?
[16:07] <Psydoll> ikonia: im having the same problem, i download a .tar.gz extract the folder, then go to that new folder via the terminal and type sudo apt-get build-dep theprogramname and it gets the dependencies but when its done and i type ./configure it says no such file or directory?
[16:07] <ionite> Pici: i wanna install both.
[16:07] <Psydoll> oh dang!
[16:07] <ionite> Pici: type Xkill in terminal>
[16:07] <Psydoll> i havent installed the build thing!
[16:07] <ikonia> Psydoll: as I've explained this to you before, you shouldn't be doing this stuff when you have a.) not read the instructions b.) have no real understanding of what you're doing
[16:08] <Pici> ionite: Adobe has no version of Shockwave for Linux.  Flash can be installed from either the software center, or by installing the flashplugin-installer package manually.
[16:08] <Psydoll> ikonia: i forgot to install the program that you need to be able to build programs from source.
[16:08] <Psydoll> thanks
[16:08] <tenekoj> +x
[16:08] <Psydoll> ikonia: i know what im doing just ive been too lazy and using those repositories too much./
[16:08] <siavoshkc> lol@build thing
[16:08] <ikonia> Psydoll: you haev no idea what you're doing
[16:09] <siavoshkc> lol
[16:09] <Psydoll> siavoshkc: whats so funny
[16:09] <ionite> Pici: can i run exe files in natty?
[16:09] <Pici> ionite: Did you read the information about WINE that I already gave you?
[16:09] <ionite> Why is my Natty more laggy than XP pro?
[16:09] <ThinkT510> Psydoll: unless you are willing to read documentation i don't think compiling software is for you
[16:09] <ikonia> ionite: one of the common causes is the video card not configured or supported enough
[16:10] <ionite> Pici: yes.
[16:10] <ionite> ikonia: so any way out of it?
[16:10] <pepi_> hey can someone help me? my webcam is not working
[16:10] <ikonia> ionite: you have to first find out if that is the problem, I'm just offering information that it is one of the more common expereinces
[16:11] <siavoshkc> where were we been?
[16:12] <ionite> Natty is much more laggy than my XP Pro
[16:12] <pepi_> hey can someone help me? my webcam is not working
[16:12] <siavoshkc> Psydoll: you said build thing
[16:12] <ionite> my natty can't even play mp3 songs.
[16:13] <ionite> Natty is much more laggy than my XP Pro
[16:13] <ionite> my natty can't even play mp3 songs.
[16:13] <user82> pepi_, i think you need to deliver more info. like what webcam it is/which net or notebook its built in or so
[16:13] <siavoshkc> mp3 is proprietary
[16:13] <ikonia> ionite: ok, stop repeating that
[16:13] <oCean> ionite: we read that the first time
[16:13] <ikonia> ionite: I suggest the first thing you look at is the video
[16:13] <pepi_> its an old logitech webcam
[16:13] <siavoshkc> use ogg
[16:13] <Pici> ionite: install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package.
[16:13] <skegeek> I'm trying to setup  standard web hosting directory structure...anyone know of a good guide for doing so?
[16:13] <ikonia> ionite: as in the video card and it's compatabilities and confguration
[16:13] <ionite> it's so laggy that i can't even see my own that i typed twice
[16:14] <hudo> how do i navigate through the mails invoked by the ubuntu mail programm
[16:14] <Wh1zz0> Please how can I enable sound in VM?
[16:14] <mang0> Argh. I still can't run Cogs from the humblebundle. How do I make a DIR/File read&write from terminal?
[16:14] <ikonia> Wh1zz0: what vm technology are you using
[16:14] <Psydoll> ikonia: i got it running thanks, your right reading the readme and installation docs in the folder does help, not all source files are the same.
[16:14] <Wh1zz0> I'm running XP in VM
[16:14] <mi6ail1234> Hello everyone
[16:14] <ikonia> mang0: chmod 755 $DIRNAME
[16:14] <user82> pepi_, i am not an expert but perhaps you should do basic checks described here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam
[16:14] <Wh1zz0> Oracle Sun Virtual Box 4.1
[16:14] <ikonia> Psydoll: no, I told you this many times
[16:14] <mang0> thanks ikonia
[16:15] <pepi_> ty
[16:15] <ikonia> Wh1zz0: have you tried in #vbox ?
[16:15] <mi6ail1234> i need to know how to share my priner over my local network?
[16:15] <Wh1zz0> Yeah Im in there as well
[16:15] <ionite> why can't natty utilized my monitor resolution of 1600X800 ?
[16:15] <ikonia> ionite: I'm getting fed up with you now
[16:15] <ikonia> ionite: I've told you the most probably reason
[16:16] <ikonia> ionite: if you keep saying why can't, why can't, you will get nowhere, if you listen to the advice / suggestions been given, we can work it through
[16:16] <Pici> ionite: I believe  you were told to look at the additional drivers program, did you do that?
[16:17] <ionite> Pici: i tried the additional drivers program but it only prompt me to install the 3D driver. what about my mp3 codec?
[16:17] <ikonia> ionite: deal with one thing at a time
[16:17] <ikonia> ionite: your video card still isn't working, so fix that before worrying about your mp3
[16:17] <felipe_Brz> hi I've just set up a vsftpd on my VPS server.... Do I need to configure anything else to be able to log in as root user?
[16:17] <ikonia> felipe_Brz: root is not an active user on ubuntu
[16:17] <Pici> ionite: I told you how to fix your mp3 issue as well. Install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package.
by default in vsftpd root is not allowed
[16:18] <user82> uh topic video cards: how do i install fglrx kernel module for more than one kernel. if i start the setup again with another kernel booted it delets the other kernel module?
[16:18] <user82> not that its a huge problem but little annoying still
[16:18] <xangua> ionite: he has already told you to install ubuntu-restricted-extras for codecs and more
[16:18] <felipe_Brz> ikonia: tY
[16:19] <felipe_Brz> jiltdil: thank you
[16:19] <Pici> user82: If you're using the package in the repositories, it should be using dkms to install to all your kernels.
[16:20] <mang0> Omg. Guys, I cannot get this prgram to run!  I double click it and it still says "This medium contains software intended to be automatically started. Would you like to run it? The software will run directly from the medium "123 GB File system". You should never run software that you don't trust.
[16:20] <mang0> If in doubt, press Cancel." So I hit "RUN" and then it gives me the error: "Error autorunning software. Cannot find the autorun program". Why is this? It's a program native to linux....grrr.
[16:20] <ikonia> mang0: please stop ranting
[16:20] <ikonia> mang0: if you look on the website, you'll find it has instructions and support resources
[16:21] <ikonia> mang0: have you considered asking the people who make and support this process via their well documented support process, instead of complaining to the people who support the Ubuntu operating system /
[16:21] <mang0> O.o a) that's not ranting, you've not seen a mang0 rage :P I'd get banned from #ubuntu. and b) really? I didn't realise that. c) I thought it was an ubuntu problem, with ubuntu not allowing me to make the file executable. forgive me.
[16:22] <mi6ail1234> How to share my printer?
[16:22] <Wh1zz0> ikonia: I still can't get it to work.. any idea what could be wrong.. The audio driver there is set to PulseAudio
[16:22] <ikonia> Wh1zz0: no idea without looking into it
[16:23] <dli> mi6ail1234, in grub, modify the printer, and check 'Share this printer' in process
[16:23] <dli> mi6ail1234, sorry, I'm in cups
[16:25] <doomrobo> can somebody help me with an nvidia installation?
[16:25] <ikonia> doomrobo: what's the issue ?
[16:25] <tfdev> hey all I recently removed pulseaudio on natty and now I don't have any audio. I was told I needed to set all applications to ALSA but am confused how to do that. Nub to linux and natty. Any help appreciated!
[16:26] <xangua> tfdev: if you install ubuntu-desktop all pulse audio stuff should install as well
[16:26] <mi6ail1234> dli, i've tryed but it say to me to check my server setting(it means that something is wrong)
[16:26] <dli> tfdev, can you run in terminal: aplay /dev/uranom
[16:26] <dli> mi6ail1234, can you open http://localhost:631
[16:27] <doomrobo> ok, so I have the Nvidia proprietary driver installed on my system but it says it's not in use. Why? Because in nvidia-settings it says it needs to write its custom xorg.conf. So I let it do its thing with "nvidia-xconfig" and it breaks the xserver. Luckily, it backed up the old conf before editing it.
[16:27] <tfdev> dli: no such file or directory
[16:27] <doomrobo> so, I need help on how to fix the new conf
[16:27] <mi6ail1234> dli, yes...and then?
[16:27] <ikonia> doomrobo: could you pastebin your xorg.conf (the broke one)
[16:27] <doomrobo> I'm working on it now
[16:27] <tfdev> xangua: I'm trying to not use pulseaudio, it was "dropping" my hardware frequently until I restarted
[16:28] <dli> mi6ail1234, go to printers
[16:28] <YankDownUnder> doomrobo, Do: sudo nvidia-settings
[16:28] <dli> tfdev, sorry, /dev/urandom
[16:28] <mang0> ikonia: I can't see any FAQ/Help/Support page.
[16:28] <ikonia> mang0: ok
[16:28] <tfdev> dli: nothing
[16:28] <tfdev> dli: it's playing according to the shell, but the speakers are null
[16:28] <dli> tfdev, what about alsamixer ?
[16:29] <mi6ail1234> dli, and after that
[16:29] <dli> mi6ail1234, find Modify printer
[16:30] <VictorCL> how can I downgrade firefox to version 4 ?
[16:30] <tfdev> dli: alsamixer pops up with my hardware device and several meters
[16:30] <VictorCL> can I do it with a simple command?
[16:30] <skegeek> I need some help setting permissions for my user to be able to upload/edit/remove files and directories owned by www-data:www-data please.
[16:30] <doomrobo> ikonia oh, and I think it may make a difference if I'm using Nvidia optimus with nvidia ION
[16:30] <dli> tfdev, volume/mute?
[16:30] <doomrobo> as in hybrid graphics
[16:30] <ikonia> doomrobo: lets have a look at the broke config fist
[16:30] <doomrobo> okey doke
[16:31] <xangua> VictorCL: google firefox old releases, or go to the mozilla ftp site; download it, extract it and run it
[16:31] <tfdev> dli: nothing is muted

[16:34] <fmauro> ignerious: what do you think is the cause of your fs error
[16:35] <doomrobo> ikonia http://pastebin.com/1tnWcU20
[16:36] <ikonia> doomrobo: ok, so what happens when you try to use that file
[16:37] <doomrobo> ikonia I boot into shell mode and type in startx, it errors out saying there are no screens

[16:38] <cousin_mario> hello
[16:38] <ikonia> doomrobo: how annoying, let me have a look at some of the supported options on that card/driver combo
[16:38] <thauriswulfa> HELP: ubuntu live freezing every time not able to run live cd help please.....
[16:38] <cousin_mario> can you think of any reason for 10.10 not setting a default gateway neither with dhcp nor with manual?
[16:38] <ronqbc> also. when oppening evolution i get everything displaced. tell me if you understand. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/845/screenshotjz.png/ what  can i do?
[16:39] <fmauro> ronqbc: tried a right click on home-button?
[16:39] <ikonia> cousin_mario: gateway on the wrong network
[16:39] <ronqbc> fmauro, no
[16:39] <cousin_mario> ikonia: no default gateway on the system
[16:40] <doomrobo> ikonia I just read that Nvidia optimus is not supported yet for ubuntu
[16:40] <ikonia> well then it won't add it
[16:40] <ikonia> cousin_mario: if won't use itself as the default gateway
[16:40] <VictorCL> can0t I do like  sudo apt-get firefox4  or similar?
[16:40] <mi6ail1234> ok,i've made some changes,but notting is happen
[16:40] <cousin_mario> ikonia: I don't think you understand
[16:40] <fmauro> ronqbc: oh I see, your window manager is acting up.. try starting a classic session in the logon screen and see if the problem persists
[16:41] <cousin_mario> ikonia: the dhcp server supplies a default gateway but ubuntu doesn't set it
[16:41] <ronqbc> fmauro, classic session?. in the logon screen? i will try
[16:41] <akinza> Is it safe to keep system in sleep mode for an hour
[16:41] <cousin_mario> ikonia: I tried setting it from networkmanager but it's still being ignored
[16:41] <ikonia> cousin_mario: yes, because it's on the same network
[16:41] <fmauro> ronqbc: yes log off, select your username, at the bottom select ubuntu classic (no effects)
[16:41] <mi6ail1234> i'm trying from Windows to add that printer...and i want to notice that in the past i successfuly added and even print from my laptop with Windows OS
[16:42] <cousin_mario> ikonia: what network?
[16:42] <ikonia> cousin_mario: what is the IP address of the machine you're using
[16:42] <cousin_mario> ikonia: 192.168.1.100
[16:42] <mi6ail1234> but now...i can't explane why i can't do that
[16:42] <ronqbc> fmauro, got it
[16:42] <ikonia> cousin_mario: what's the address of the default gateway you want to use
[16:42] <mi6ail1234> dli,  i'm trying from Windows to add that printer...and i want to notice that in the past i successfuly added and even print from my laptop with Windows OS
[16:43] <cousin_mario> ikonia: the default gateway is 192.168.1.1 and windows machines obtain it via dhcp and set it as default route
[16:43] <ikonia> cousin_mario: right, so that should be fine, please pastebin the output of "netstat -rn"
[16:43] <dli> mi6ail1234, I suppose windows supports cups
[16:43] <cousin_mario> ikonia: a sudo ip add default dev eth0 via 192.168.1.1 solves the issue, but only temporarily
[16:44] <cousin_mario> ikonia: I'm debugging it via phone
[16:44] <ghostnik11> can someone help me fix my grub.conf file as i installed fedora 15 along side ubuntu 11.04 but lost the ability to select ubuntu to boot: here is a pastebin of my grub.conf: http://fpaste.org/z9mq/
[16:44] <Aaronds> how can I create a new user and automatically add it to an existing group, rather than having it create its own group? adduser <username> <groupname> says that the user doesn't exist (obviously)
[16:44] <ikonia> cousin_mario: ok, then let me know when you can debug it properly with me
[16:44] <mi6ail1234> dli, yes and even i print some pages,but now it can't find that printer
[16:44] <skegeek> Can anyone help with configuring a desktop-like environment for remote system/server administration?
[16:45] <mi6ail1234> it seems that Ubuntu is not sharring that printer
[16:45] <cousin_mario> ikonia: I can't. I'm merely asking if there is a known bug in 10.10 about that.
[16:45] <sam123> hello, could I get some help with my wireless card? I can't connect my laptop via wireless interface. Please check the lspci output here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/653893/

[16:47] <ikonia> Wh1zz0: as I said earlier, no, not with out investigating it
[16:48] <hudo> ikonia, what do you suggest than ?
[16:48] <ikonia> hudo: using tools such as mail,
[16:48] <fmauro> sam123: type "sudo ifconfig wlan0 up" and repost your ifconfig output
[16:49] <sam123> fmauro: sam@sam-laptop:~$ sudo ifconfig wlan0 up

[16:52] <fmauro> sam123: so now your adapter is working and networkmanager is listing it?
[16:53] <sam123> fmauro: yes, it just won't connect
[16:53] <W43372> I remember I used to be able to hit Super+Tab for this fancy looking 3d window switch but I can't remember how to set that up in compiz.

[16:53] <ignerious> please any one help me
[16:54] <fmauro> sam123: okay, is your adapter integrated or is it an additional card/usbdongle?

[16:57] <ignerious> i was surfing internet
[16:57] <fmauro> ignerious: okay this could also be a hardware issue. Have you ruled that out?
[16:58] <ignerious> i used gparted to check but it si showing this

[16:59] <W43372> Does anybody know the name of that option in compiz?
[16:59] <fmauro> ignerious: it is very well possible that your harddisk has reading errors. try using smartd to determine the state of your drive
[17:01] <AlphaPsi> Hello I was wondering to how access Ubuntu /home partition from Windows
[17:03] <jerryb> AlphaPsi you need a program that can read ext2/3/4 in Windows, unless you're running BTRFS or ReiserFS or something else
[17:03] <Thrawn> is there any way to (auto)hide that unity panel in 11.04 ?
[17:03] <AlphaPsi> What programs are those? Do you have a suggestion?
[17:03] <genii-around> !ext3
[17:03] <jerryb> AlphaPsi: Check this out: Ext2 IFS For Windows www.fs-driver.org/
[17:04] <AlphaPsi> Does it also work for ext4?
[17:04] <Pici> No.
[17:04] <AlphaPsi> I might have made my partition ext4
[17:04] <genii-around> AlphaPsi: The fs-driver works also with ext4
[17:05] <Pici> genii-around: It does?  Last I saw it was not working with ext4 paritions with extents.

[17:11] <dbruns> sisif, you'll need to set dmask and fmask
[17:11] <xt3mp0r_> mount: cannot remount block device /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk read-write, is write-protected
[17:11] <xt3mp0r_> how can i solve this?
[17:11] <dbruns> sisif, if you want anyone to do stuff, 777   so dmask 777 fmask777
[17:11] <sisif> dbruns, thank you
[17:12] <dbruns> sisif, please realize that means ANYONE
[17:12] <llutz> sisif: what filesystem?
[17:12] <mang0> what command do I use to find out the kernal I've got?
[17:12] <sisif> llutz, ext4
[17:12] <sisif> mang0, uname -a
[17:12] <llutz> sisif: you use chmod/chown, not fstab options for that
[17:12] <mang0> sisif: thankyou
[17:13] <sisif> llutz, how exactly ?
[17:13] <dbruns> sisif, sorry I assumed it was like a samba mount or something like that
[17:13] <llutz> sisif:you really want _everybody_ having writeaccess? mount the filesystem, "sudo chmod 777 /mount/point"
[17:13] <dbruns> cifs I guess has replaced smb :p
[17:14] <sisif> dbruns, nop. Just another hhd in the PC
[17:14] <jerryb> Hi how do I get rid of this message when running aptitude upgrade: dpkg-query: warning: parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 58504 package 'openshot-ffmpeg':  error in Version string 'git-2623d8f-1': version number does not start with digit
[17:14] <dbruns> sisif, you could chown :user_group_here  on it to restrict it to a group of users
[17:14] <llutz> sisif: better to put all users into a common group and use 775
[17:14] <sisif> llutz, any strong arguments to now want _everybody_ to be able to r/rw that ?
[17:15] <dbruns> sisif, yes.. do what llutz  suggested..
[17:15] <llutz> sisif: always try to set permissions as restrictive as possible. 777 is nearly never a good choice
[17:15] <sipior> sisif: if you're looking for more sophisticated controls, look into using ACLs (sudo apt-get install acl).
[17:16] <sipior> sisif: the two handy utilities are setfacl and getfacl.
[17:16] <AlphaPsi> Help, I still can't open my Ubuntu /home partition from WIndows
[17:16] <sisif> sipior, thank you. looking at it rigth now
[17:16] <AlphaPsi> It says that I have to reformat it before I can use it :/
[17:16] <dbruns> 777 is pretty much for troubleshooting.... if there are permissions issues, you can set something TEMPORARILY to 777 to troubleshoot
[17:16] <Northernen> Hello. Im booting through liveCD. How do I force my system not to use fglrx drivers, so that I can boot normally? I need to get into the normal system to remove it completely.
[17:17] <dbruns> otherwise it is for the lazy and careless
[17:17] <jerryb> AlphaPsi: is your /home ext3?
[17:17] <AlphaPsi> i THINK SO
[17:17] <AlphaPsi> oops sorry
[17:17] <AlphaPsi> I think so*
[17:18] <AlphaPsi> It might also be ext4
[17:18] <jerryb> AlphaPsi: should work then.  note that newer buntu's might be ext43
[17:18] <AlphaPsi> What if it's ext4?
[17:18] <jerryb> AlphaPsi: could be a problem tho i'm not sure
[17:18] <jerryb> best to contact the author
[17:18] <sisif> llutz, after setting chmod 775 to the mount dir, I still get the "permission denied" as a regular user
[17:18] <AlphaPsi> Is there another way to access ext4 from Windows?
[17:19] <dbruns> AlphaPsi, is your home directory encrypted by chance? ;-)
[17:19] <AlphaPsi> Hmm, I don't think so
[17:19] <dbruns> AlphaPsi, what is your end goal? why do you want to access your home dir in Win?
[17:20] <AlphaPsi> I just need to get something, but yes It would be nice to get things from my /home in Windows
[17:20] <llutz> sisif: chgrp the fs to a group your user is member
[17:20] <jerryb> AlphaPsi: from http://www.soluvas.com/read-browse-explore-open-ext2-ext3-ext4-partition-filesystem-from-windows-7/ looks like ext4 works
[17:20] <dbruns> AlphaPsi, your issues may be solved by creating a new NTFS or FAT32 partition that both OS can easily access
[17:20] <AlphaPsi> Though I would need to resize a partition
[17:20] <AlphaPsi> Would that cause problems?
[17:21] <dbruns> or use a flash/thumb drive ;-)
[17:21] <AlphaPsi> How would I resize and create a new partition?
[17:21] <dbruns> gparted works well
[17:21] <Northernen> If I remove my xorg.conf containing the instructions to use fglrx drivers, will the system when I boot use a generic video driver?
[17:21] <AlphaPsi> gparted?
[17:21] <dbruns> Northernen, its gotta use something
[17:22] <dr_willis> X auto configures for the most part. It may still use the fglrx driver
[17:22] <TheCyph3r> How do you do a "cd" command in terminal for a folder w/ a space in the name
[17:22] <dr_willis> TheCyph3r:  cd 'the dir'
[17:22] <sisif> llutz, that did the trick. Thank you :)
[17:22] <dr_willis> TheCyph3r:  or use TAB completion..
[17:22] <Northernen> dbruns, dr_willis, how do I specifiy that it should use a generic 2d driver?
[17:22] <TheCyph3r> dr_willis, Thanks doc
[17:23] <dr_willis> Northernen:  No idea
[17:23] <dbruns> TheCyph3r, you can also escape it with a \
[17:23] <dbruns> so cd /mnt/win/Program\ Files/whatever
[17:23] <phoenixsampras> how to install yii framework?
[17:24] <dbruns> phoenixsampras, this is not #php and I doubt they'd help you there either.. you should read the documentation
[17:24] <dr_willis> !info yii
[17:28] <g33p_> hello! i have a problem which i described here. please take a look http://pastebin.com/R1rQdVjT
[17:28] <dr_willis> g33p_:  you may want to give a summary of the problem.
[17:30] <Northernen> Shit, English keyboard. How do I get the _power of_ symbol on US keyboard?
[17:30] <g33p_> dr_willis: yeah. my situation is that i have my old computer's hard disk on which i want to put ubuntu using my laptop and plug it in. i can connect the hard disk to my computer via a sata to usb connector.
[17:31] <dr_willis> _power of_ == 4^2  you mean?
[17:31] <ActionParsnip> g33p_: you can use unetbootin to put an MD5 tested ISO onto the USB. You can then boot the USB and use it to install your OS etc. I suggest you use Lucid server as it will be supported longer
[17:32] <g33p_> ActionParsnip: i want to format the hard disk to a proper ext4 root partition and install ubuntu on it
[17:32] <dr_willis> ive installed to  a hard drive. made sure grub got installed right.. then moved that hd to a differnt machine g33p_..
[17:33] <ActionParsnip> g33p_: assuming your BIOS can boot USB. Not all can
[17:33] <dr_willis> g33p_:  just be sure grub gets put on the right hard drive during the install.
[17:33] <g33p_> dr_willis: so i put in the ubuntu installation disk, install everything to my external hard disk, make sure grub is loaded to it, and just plug it in to my old computer.
[17:33] <dr_willis> g33p_:  thats how ive done it befor.
[17:34] <Guest79700> hola
[17:34] <dr_willis> g33p_:  you may want to unplug any other hard drives in the installer-pc to be sure everything goes to the usb.
[17:34] <g33p_> ActionParsnip: my computer can't boot usb. and the hard disk is acutally an internal one. i am connecting it to my laptop via a connector
[17:34] <g33p_> dr_willis: i wondered if that would work. but disabling my hd in bios will do right?
[17:35] <g33p_> coz i have laptop
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> g33p_: yes you can use the device to install. As dr_willis says, be sure grub installs to the system during OS install. Its not hard to fix if you don't but its easily avoidable
[17:35] <dr_willis> g33p_:  that should work also.. its not required. but can make things simpiler.
[17:36] <g33p_> thanks. will get back to you guys once i try it out.
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> g33p_: if it has floppy there is an image on pendrivelinux to boot floppy to then boot USB. Dead handy
[17:37] <Northernen> How does one uninstall packages from a liveCD?
[17:37] <jerryb> Hi how do I get rid of this message when running aptitude upgrade: dpkg-query: warning: parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 58504 package 'openshot-ffmpeg':  error in Version string 'git-2623d8f-1': version number does not start with digit
[17:38] <g33p_> ActionParsnip: now that you mentioned floppy, i remember this. my old computer does have a good working dvd drive and i do have a ubuntu server cd. but the thing is there is an error always coming during install. kernel pae error.
[17:38] <coz_> jerryb,   did you manually install openshot?
[17:38] <g33p_> ActionParsnip: that is the sole reason i wanted to put ubuntu on and then plugin the hard disk.
[17:38] <ActionParsnip> jerryb: let me pastebin
[17:39] <jerryb> coz_: you mean tar file? or .deb?  Not that I recall
[17:39] <coz_> jerryb,  mm  first i would attempt  a  sudo apt-get install -f
[17:39] <dr_willis> Northernen:  you would have to remaster the live cd.

[17:47] <doughj3> I'm trying to use the root shell prompt from the recovery menu to recover a password, but this also asks me for a password. Am I doing something wrong?
[17:47] <felipe_Brz> why does the TAB key does autocomplete when I'm logged in as root but doesn't work when I'm logged in as another user?
[17:47] <dr_willis> doughj3:  it would want the sudo users password..
[17:47] <doughj3> dr_willis: isn't the point of this tool to be for password recovery?
[17:47] <dr_willis> felipe_Brz:  because bash completion scripts have not been loaded.
[17:47] <doughj3> that is what I've found from some googling.
[17:47] <jerryb> ActionParsnip: I removed and reinstalled openshot. problem still there,  still the dpkg " error in Version string" message
[17:48] <doughj3> Is there an alternative way to reset the password?
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> doughj3: if you set your root pass which is not advised then it will
[17:48] <rsyring> I'd like userA to be able to su to userB, w/out knowing userB's password.  Can this be done?
[17:48] <doughj3> The root password was never set.
[17:48] <dr_willis> doughj3:  if you are resetting your root/admin users password you can chroot in and use the passwd command and set a new one.
[17:48] <dr_willis> the initial user is your main admin. you can set/reset their password by a live cd. or single user mode ibelive
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> jerryb: its not the package. You have a corrupted status file
[17:48] <felipe_Brz> dr_willis: oh is it domething I must set from within the visudo file?
[17:48] <doughj3> dr_willis: My problem is I can't get to a prompt to do anything; the root recovery option prompts for a password so I never hit the shell.
[17:49] <doughj3> Ah, livecd then?
[17:49] <dr_willis> felipe_Brz:  not if you get to a root shell via some boot optuions
[17:49] <llutz> felipe_Brz: users ~/.bashrc
[17:49] <jerryb> ActionParsnip: OK, how to repair it?
[17:49] <dr_willis> !single
[17:49] <dr_willis> thers the single user mode. or booting a live cd an d chrooting into the system
[17:49] <doughj3> What is single user mode?
[17:49] <dr_willis> I never use the recovery mode. so im not even sure that features it has.

[17:50] <cryptodira> ActionParsnip,  buying a wifi router may be done at some point in the future.... as i live off-grid in the middle of the forest, it is not a current option..... that said, is there a way to make it work without a dedicated router?

[17:52] <ssbpls> my question: how to install the wireless cards' drivers on ubuntu 10.04?
[17:52] <felipe_Brz> How can I use the usermod command to assign the most comprehensive possible bash to a user I just created?
[17:53] <zul_> How can help me in the configuration of git in a different ssh port (not 22)?
[17:53] <pi_> please help
[17:53] <dr_willis> felipe_Brz:  'comprehensive possible bash' means.. err.. nothing to me.. clarify
[17:53] <addisonj> does anyone here use gnome terminator?
[17:53] <iceroot> zul_: #git
[17:53] <default__> ssbpls,  have you checked System > Administration ->  Additional Drivers ?
[17:53] <iceroot> !anyone | addisonj
[17:53] <dr_willis> addisonj:   the terminator  'terminal' program is very popular. :)
[17:53] <pi_> my resolution is wrong and I cant change it.
[17:54] <zul_> I'm a newbie I tried to ask in #git channel But I don't know ... I can't
[17:54] <zul_> is it restricted?
[17:54] <addisonj> zul_, you need to indentify yourself
[17:54] <addisonj> !identify
[17:54] <zul_> how?
[17:54] <felipe_Brz> dr_willis: I'm not so sure, I would like to be able to use bash with my new user just the same way I use with my root user. I.e. files colours, autocomplete etc etc
[17:54] <ssbpls> default__:there is no additional drivers on my system. i am using the system that based on the 10.04
[17:54] <oCean> !register | zul_
[17:55] <zul_> ok thanks I do
[17:55] <dr_willis> felipe_Brz:  when i add a user via 'adduser billgates' (or whatever) thats the default...
[17:55] <cryptodira> ActionParsnip,  Thank YOU for your time and advice!
[17:55] <spacebug-> is billgates the default? :D
[17:55] <dr_willis> felipe_Brz:  its just a matter of what gets sourced/ran by their .bashrc and .profile  which should be the same for newly made users.. unless you customze them
[17:55] <addisonj> alright, so back to terminator, quick question about behavior, do layouts save the proportions that you define in a layout? it seems I am not getting that behavior?

[18:13] <JPeterson> for example the spring icon for launchers?
[18:13] <th0r> JPeterson: some are in /usr/share/pixmaps, and some in /usr/local/share/icons or pixmaps
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> Fulluser: its a very complex file. You will find samples if you websearch. You can get write access to the file with: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf    the file doesn't exist by default but some video hardware needs it
[18:13] <fulluser> ok

[18:14] <ActionParsnip> JPeterson: if you are making your own launcher the icon can be anywhere
[18:14] <JPeterson> th0r: thanks, I have no \usr\local\share\icons in my default 11.04 x64 though
[18:15] <JPeterson> ActionParsnip: I mean the default one, that is a spring with a board on
[18:15] <th0r> JPeterson: there aren't many there. I didn't know about those locations until searching for one icon...I found it all alone there

[18:17] <italoxp> you want cs server in linux?
[18:17] <th0r> JPeterson: that might be a long list
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> JPeterson: could search your files for *.xpm  and see what looks likely. Failing that try *.png
[18:17] <italoxp> 1.6 or Source?
[18:17] <the_holstar> yeah italoxp
[18:17] <th0r> JPeterson: and sometimes icons are .xpm files as well
[18:17] <JPeterson> or maybe it's an xpm file
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> !appdb | the_holstar
[18:18] <the_holstar> I installed that and i tried to run hlds.exe
[18:18] <the_holstar> it doesn't work
[18:18] <Pici> the_holstar: Valve might provide a linux binary, but finding it it out of scope for this channel.
[18:18] <JPeterson> ActionParsnip, th0r: the launcher is a plain text file. has this icon Icon[en_US]=gnome-panel-launcher
[18:19] <th0r> JPeterson: should be able to locate gnome-panel-launcher
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> JPeterson: sudo find / -iname "gnome-panel-launcher*"
[18:19] <th0r> JPeterson: I don't use gnome, so can't do it here <smile>
[18:20] <spacebug-> JPeterson: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/gnome-panel-launcher.png
[18:20] <bsmith093> im archiving webcomics, is there a way to pull a bunch of files out of subfolders and put them all in one older, that doesnt involve doing it byt hand, bc there a re dowzens of folders
[18:21] <JPeterson> spacebug-: thanks, problem solved
[18:21] <spacebug-> JPeterson: well actually look in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/ since there are for many sizes even scalable
[18:21] <spacebug-> ok good
[18:21] <natty-user> can anyone help with my firestarter 1.0.3 problem on natty? firestarter seems to work fine, but it fails to log events.
[18:21] <andresmh> my screen windows are named like "22985.pts-7.hostname", is there a way to rename them once they are created?
[18:21] <ActionParsnip> the_holstar: http://www.arsgeek.com/2008/08/18/how-to-run-a-dedicated-steam-server-on-your-ubuntu-box-countestrike-style/
[18:22] <JPeterson> spacebug-: I belive it's using the scalable (ie svg) icon by default
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> natty-user: is the log file writable and on a partition mounted as writable
[18:22] <spacebug-> JPeterson: ok
[18:23] <the_holstar> ActionParsnip thanks :D
[18:23] <ActionParsnip> JPeterson: the wildcard in my find command covers all types ;-)
[18:23] <Pici> andresmh: You can change the sessioname parameter within screen, but you might want to take a look at the manpage for the caveats surrounding that.
[18:23] <JPeterson> ActionParsnip: thanks
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> the_holstar: all i did was websearch....
[18:24] <Pici> andresmh: You'd do ctrl-a : to get to command mode, and from there you would do   sessioname andresmhssession    or whatever
[18:24] <Pici> andresmh: sorry, its sessionname
[18:24] <ActionParsnip> the_holstar: you should try it before asking.
[18:25] <kevwilde> Hi, anyone using an Xtreamer Ultra?
[18:25] <ActionParsnip> kevwilde: what is it a
[18:26] <ActionParsnip> And what is your issue with it?
[18:27] <natty-user> @ActionParsnip: I'm not sure what that is, but its on the main partition, with the operating system.
[18:27] <kevwilde> It contains a heavily customized ubuntu (ugly) and i've installed a fresh 11.04 on it. But I'm afraid I can't get the IR working. It works if I plug in my Windows Media Center IR Receiver, but the built-in receiver is not functioning correctly
[18:28] <ActionParsnip> natty-user: check the file is writable
[18:28] <d4danger> Have just dual booted my Acer Aspire 1810TZ with Ubuntu 11.04 - am having intermittent problems with mouse movement locking up and even with the whole system locking.  Had to power cycle.  Any pointers
[18:28] <natty-user> @ActionParsnip: OK, I'll check.
[18:30] <ActionParsnip> kevwilde: if you run: lsusb   you will see an 8 character hex ID you can use to find guides. Also look into lirc. If you run xev  then press the remote control buttons does it make events?
[18:30] <kevwilde> ActionParsnip: i'm afraid that did not help much: http://dpaste.com/580844/
[18:32] <ministerdude> virtualbox, unable to mount usb support. I've tried tutorial after tutorial and nothing's working
[18:32] <kevwilde> ActionParsnip: I have the OS with a working IR setup on a USB stick, would I be able to deduce the correct driver from there?
[18:33] <ActionParsnip> ministerdude: you need the closed source virtualbox for USB access
[18:33] <ministerdude> crap. where do I get that one at?
[18:34] <ActionParsnip> kevwilde: sure:   lsmod    shows loaded modules. dmesg | less    will show it being detected. Scroll text with cursor
[18:34] <natty-user> @ActionParsnip: I checked the firestarter file is writable, but there's only the main app file.
[18:35] <reactor16> what is systemtype used on D2D partition ?
[18:35] <jerryb> ActionParsnip: I ran your script, but the error remains
[18:35] <ActionParsnip> natty-user: could try the firestarter channel if one exists
[18:36] <lapaga> natty-user: it most likely that you are not seeing events not that it is not logging them - I do not remember which file it is that you have to edit  but search the forums or google - it is a rather standard problem with firestarter
[18:37] <Pici> natty-user: Firestarter is being deprectated, we're suggesting using ufw (or gufw for gui) now.
[18:37] <natty-user> "Firestarter Error. Failed to open system log. ..."
[18:37] <natty-user> @Pici: is ufw easy to use?
[18:37] <Pici> natty-user: Supposedly.  I've never used it myself.
[18:37] <mang0> jerryb: first you need moo. run "apt-get moo" without quotes.
[18:38] <jerryb> mang0: E: Unable to locate package moo
[18:38] <mang0> jerryb: you done it?
[18:38] <mang0> what?!
[18:39] <mang0> hold on
[18:39] <lapaga> natty-user: most people will tell you to not use firestarter but if you want to see events as they happen you will have to uncomment a few lines (just do not remember which file).
[18:39] <Pici> !joke | mang0 jerryb
[18:39] <pr0ton> how do i search with grep
[18:39] <pr0ton> such that i dont list one folder?
[18:39] <mang0> sorry Pici
[18:39] <pr0ton> like i want to fo ls | grep not admin
[18:39] <mang0> jerryb: apt-get moo just draws a cow in terminal
[18:39] <mang0> sorry
[18:39] <mang0> XD
[18:39] <pr0ton> basically grep should print everything except anything matching admin
[18:39] <jerryb> mang0: except...no cow
[18:39] <mang0> ;__;
[18:39] <mang0> worked for me
[18:39] <mang0> idk
[18:40] <Pici> pr0ton: grep -v will invert your grep search.

[18:45] <endip> Is there a terminal command that will give me detailed specs on my system (including how many sticks of memory I have installed (i.e., 4GB x 2))?
[18:46] <th0r> endip: free will tell you the memory and usage, but it won't describe the physical layout of the memory, just the total
[18:47] <easyeye> hi room

[18:47] <maven> mrmist: thank you
[18:48] <endip> th0r :: ok.
[18:48] <th0r> endip: lshw might show you the physical layout...checking now
[18:49] <th0r> endip: yes, lshw shows the banks and the memory in each bank. I think you will have to install lshw from a repo....I did in debian
[18:49] <Pici> th0r: It should be installed by default in Ubuntu.

[19:05] <biagio> hello
[19:05] <biagio> any italians?
[19:05] <neneko> endip, I'm not sure exactly what that is but you should be able to kill any process with the system monitor app
[19:05] <obert> !it
[19:05] <neneko> or "ps -A" and then kill if you prefer cli
[19:05] <naptastic> jairavax, I have a similar situation on my PC with a mediocre video card. I blame notch.

[19:09] <wolfric> what is the tool/program called that manages the wifi connections in gnome on the toolbar?
[19:09] <iLogic> Ubuntu 11.04 freezes on suspend/hibernate and caps lock is blinking (kernel panic I assume) on my hp mini 110-3130 .. any clues?
[19:09] <edbian> wolfric: nm-applet
[19:09] <edbian> wolfric: network-manager
[19:09] <edbian> wolfric: why?
[19:10] <wolfric> edbian: i want to disable the default "connect automatically" when you first connect to a network
[19:10] <wolfric> i also wanted to see if i could prevent it from probing for networks i have saved (if indeed it does)
[19:10] <BigMao> Hi there, is there some way for me to change the default umask for all users working in a certain directory?  My goal is for newly created directories within that directory to be group-writeable.
[19:11] <edbian> wolfric: For the first thing you'd have to change the source code or manually tick that box.
[19:11] <wolfric> edbian: manually change tick that box?
[19:12] <edbian>  wolfric When you connect to a network nm-applet makes a note of that network.  There is a setting 'connect automatically' for each network is makes a note of.  Just mess around with gui for a bit.  You'll find it.
[19:12] <wolfric> edbian: you mean go in manually and untick it for each connection i make? yes i do that automatically
[19:12] <wolfric> sorry i mean i do that "normally"
[19:12] <wolfric> but it's a pain
[19:12] <edbian> wolfric: Yeah
[19:12] <edbian> wolfric: You'd have to edit the source code to change that behavior I think.
[19:13] <edbian> wolfric: There is not 'tick this box automatically' tick box anywhere that I'm aware of :(
[19:13] <Northernen> Has anyone tried the 11.7 Catalyst drivers yet? Had massive amounts of hassle with 11.6.
[19:15] <italoxp> Guys, Ubuntu is having a biiiig delay when I press media keys. For example, when I press Volume Up, it takes more than 2 minutes to actually raise the volume. Can someone help?
[19:16] <wolfric> edbian: happen to know where it saves your remembered networks?
[19:16] <edbian> wolfric: No :(  Probably in gconf
[19:16] <mang0> How do i check if I have OpenGL installed?
[19:17] <italoxp> The problem occurs only with Volume an Brightness, Pause, Skip, etc keys work
[19:17] <italoxp> Anybody?
[19:18] <felipe_Brz> I have a fresh 11.04 install, so when I try to play .mp3 files it seems I don't have the necessary "files" or codecs or whatever so ubuntu prompts me to download them. I start the download but the speed is of the download is in the order of 100 bytes per sec... Is there something wrong here?
[19:19] <Bigbucks> Does anyone know how to stop an error message that is constantly running, causing my ubuntu server to be unusable?
[19:19] <italoxp> !codecs | felipe_Brz
[19:19] <Pici> Bigbucks: It would depend on what the error was.
[19:19] <edbian> felipe_Brz: Try changing your server.  The default one is usually overrun with other people using so it is slow / possibly very far away from you.
[19:19] <felipe_Brz> edbian, italoxp  : thank you
[19:19] <Bigbucks> Pici: The error was as follows - Unable to enumerate USB device on port 4
[19:20] <edbian> felipe_Brz: sure.
[19:20] <Pici> Bigbucks: Do you have something plugged in there?
[19:20] <iLogic> Ubuntu 11.04 freezes on suspend/hibernate and caps lock is blinking (kernel panic I assume) on my hp mini 110-3130 .. any clues?
[19:20] <edbian> iLogic: shot in the dark here: Do you have more swap than ram?
[19:21] <iLogic> edbian: 2gb for both swap and ram
[19:21] <edbian> iLogic: mmm, IDK then :/
[19:21] <wolfric> edbian: spot on thanks
[19:21] <edbian> wolfric: sure
[19:21] <Bigbucks> Pici: I have nothing plugged in, the USB ports do not work for some odd reason, yet they give off power.
[19:22] <Pici> Bigbucks: Thats odd.  I suppose you might be able to disable them via your BIOS.
[19:22] <iLogic> edbian: it was fine before.. it started after I install caffeine, but then I purged it and nothing.. so I did a fresh install and still it remains :(
[19:22] <Pici> Bigbucks: Or perhaps rmmod the relevent usb module.
[19:22] <edbian> iLogic: Usually kernel panics have to do with bad hardware.
[19:23] <jakemp> Is there a way to see if I am on Unity 3D or just 2d?
[19:23] <iLogic> edbian: but it's a nice and new netbook.. plus, it was fine before
[19:23] <iLogic> linux support for acpi sucks :(
[19:23] <Bigbucks> pici: I dont think the BIOS has an option to disable them, I am planning on using this as a small file server, because the computer is basically useless as a homecomputer, and what is RMMOD?
[19:24] <edbian> iLogic: I do not knwo :(
[19:24] <iLogic> edbian: well, thanks anyway.. I'll keep repeating it in intervals to see if someone gives a clue
[19:24] <edbian> Bigbucks: rmmod removes a module.  modules are drivers in linux.  If you remove a driver it will not be used for any device on your system.
[19:24] <edbian> iLogic: good luck! :(
[19:25] <Bigbucks> edbian: So, say I could remove the harddrive from the computer with the busted USB, and plug it into a working computer, disable the USB drivers, then plug it back in, and I should not recieve the error?
[19:25] <Pici> Bigbucks: rmmod removes a module, basically tells the kernel not to try to interface with that hardware.  If it works, you can blacklist it and stop it from using it at boot.
[19:26] <nudb2> hi, when I do "ls" what does a pink color mean?  (using bash, via putty)
[19:26] <edbian> Bigbucks: well rmmod does not survive a reboot.
[19:26] <edbian> Bigbucks: Additionally, you're assuming the module is causing the problem :/
[19:26] <nudb2> also an asterisk at the end of a filename with ls -al
[19:26] <Pici> Bigbucks: Unfortunately, I'm on a virtual machine at the moment, and don't remember what the usb module's name is.
[19:27] <Janhouse> are there any docks/panels like tint2 that can group icons by workspaces?
[19:28] <Bigbucks> edbian: Pici: The USB hasnt worked for a while, even when it was running windows. It is a problem with the computer. I want to stop the message so I can use basic functionality required for the server. I will have no need for USB.
[19:28] <Pici> Bigbucks: try: lsmod | grep usb
[19:28] <edbian> Bigbucks: It sounds to me like something is wrong with the actual hardware if it effects multiple OSs.  Can you boot Ubuntu and remove the modules for USB manually?
[19:28] <G000531> l
[19:28] <edbian> Bigbucks: do what Pici says :)
[19:28] <edbian> G000531: l
[19:29] <nudb2> 1) what does pink mean in an "ls" filename (via bash on putty).  2) what does an asterisk mean with ll (ls -l)
[19:29] <chenthu> guys been having a hard time installing natty....can someone help...please...?
[19:29] <Bigbucks> I dont have access to the computer RIGHT NOW. Pici: What does that do?
[19:29] <edbian> chenthu: sure
[19:30] <edbian> Bigbucks: it tells you the names of the modules that have 'usb' in the name.
[19:30] <felipe_Brz> nudb2: i got a pink file when I uploaded a file using filezilla
[19:30] <felipe_Brz> nudb2: don't know what it mean though
[19:30] <Pici> Bigbucks: That will list the modules that you currently have loaded and will filter for "usb".  Hopefully that will list something that you can use sudo rmmod yourmodulename with.  You can also try blacklisting it.
[19:30] <Pici> !blacklist | Bigbucks
[19:31] <chenthu> edbian:  I am installing through usb i downloaded the correct iso checksum matched....used usbinstaller now when i boot i get diplsy problem...completely scarmbled display
[19:31] <nudb2> felipe_Brz: thanks for the great help!  I got it when uploading it with psftp (putty sftp).  now what?
[19:31] <nudb2> is it some taint mechanism?
[19:31] <Bigbucks> edbian: So is there a way to remove the modules while still being able to reboot the machine without the error?
[19:31] <chenthu> edbian:  tried install vga=77 but say cant find install comand...
[19:31] <ikonia> nudb2: the colours are just file types and permissions
[19:31] <felipe_Brz> nudb2: i found this link, might be of use to you http://systhread.net/texts/200703bashish.php
[19:32] <chenthu> edbian; what to do?
[19:32] <nudb2> "file types" - it's pink when it ends in .jpg?
[19:32] <nudb2> because "it's probably pussy?"  (It's actually not.  It's a background header)
[19:32] <edbian> Bigbucks: I don't think so because the USB modules are part of the kernel.  You'd have to compile the kernel yourself and not include them.  If you can boot Ubuntu and turn the modules off manually then there is a way to have the automatically turned off at boot time for you.
[19:33] <edbian> chenthu: What happens when you boot normally that you are trying to run vga=777 ?
[19:33] <Bigbucks> edbian: Would blacklisting them cause them not to be started when ubuntu server is loaded?
[19:33] <edbian> Bigbucks: yes
[19:34] <edbian> Bigbucks: I believe so.  I was wrong before.  blacklisting will prevent them ever being loaded.
[19:34] <chenthu> edbian:  when i try to boot normally....it goes till the purple ubuntu screen...after that i get a scambled screen and it gets frozen there...nothing to do...
[19:34] <edbian> Bigbucks: to blacklist modules you put blacklist <mod Name> in /etc/blacklist.conf  (I think that's the file)
[19:34] <ikonia> nudb2: the colours represent file types AND permissions
[19:34] <edbian> chenthu: Have you tried using a different video card? (onboard video perhaps)
[19:34] <Bigbucks> edbian: So, I could blacklist anything with USB in the name, and it would prevent the error from appearing?
[19:35] <edbian> Bigbucks: It is a possible solution.  You cannot blacklist wildcards though.  You have to figure out the exact names using lsmod and google :)
[19:35] <arooni-mobile> can't boot into ubuntu 10.04; now getting: Target filesystem doesnt have /sbin/init ... no init found.  try passing init=bootarg.  any ideas on how to fix?
[19:35] <GeorgeJ> Hello. I'm trying to attempt something pretty crazy. I've got a remote box with ubuntu server 10.04 and I want to install a fresh 11.04 on it. I've had some bad experiences with debootstrap previously. Is there any way I could boot from a live image, connect to it and start the instalation remotely? But without using a CD?
[19:35] <natty-user> I just tried gufw, and don't really like it.
[19:36] <ikonia> arooni-mobile: it means it can't see the disk with the file system on, hence not being able to see the init bianry
[19:36] <ikonia> GeorgeJ: not really, no
[19:36] <Bigbucks> edbian: So just lsmod for anything with USB in the name, then blacklist them all?
[19:36] <arooni-mobile> ikonia, bios sees all drives
[19:36] <p014k> Hello. I have 11.04 and i use several kde apps. I recently did a clean install because my audio in kde apps wasn't working (rather it had a metallic noise and it said my audio card wasn't recognized). This happened after I uninstalled pulseaudio. I use alsa mostly and with other apps and pulseaudio messes with it. I want to safely uninstall it and still have my kde apps work. My previous attempts at uninstallation have failed.
[19:36] <ikonia> arooni-mobile: didn't say bios, the boot setup can't see the file system with the init binary on it
[19:37] <chenthu> edbian: cannot...cause i am using a laptop
[19:38] <GeorgeJ> ikonia: Would you atleast recommend https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/OverSSH ?
[19:38] <ikonia> GeorgeJ: no, %100 not
[19:38] <zer0-day> hi how can i reconfigure my audio drivers, with alsa
[19:38] <arooni-mobile> ikonia, but it can read /sbin
[19:38] <ikonia> arooni-mobile: how do you know ?
[19:38] <GeorgeJ> ikonia: Sadly there is no other way of doing this. I have no problem getting my hands dirty, actually I'd love it.  Would you recommend something else though?
[19:39] <arooni-mobile> ikonia, well i'm in the busybox interface and i did a ls of /sbin
[19:39] <ikonia> GeorgeJ: no, %100 not
[19:39] <ikonia> arooni-mobile: that's the busy box /sbin, not your file system
[19:40] <arooni-mobile> ikonia, ok i didnt know that
[19:40] <alazare619> im needing some advice i have an old laptop that has an ide hard drive with no cache (60gig) with 512 megs of ram and a centrino 1.4ghz processor i need a filesystem that is light on the cpu so im thinking non journaled but journaling is ok if it is minimal cpu usage now ive been looking at jfs xfs and ext2 any ideas on wich would be the easiest to use and most suitable
[19:40] <ikonia> alazare619: you won't notice any effect on removing journaling
[19:40] <ikonia> alazare619: ext4 will be fine
[19:41] <alazare619> ikonia:  well ive used ext2 and recently went to ext4 but noticed alot of speed reduction and its probably cause of the older hardware ive also noticed alot more writes to the hard drive too
[19:41] <msp3k> Hello?
[19:42] <ikonia> alazare619: I doubt the file system is the issue, I've used it on much lower spec machines, but you're welcome to chose what ever you want
[19:42] <alazare619> ikonia: do you have any experience with jfs?
[19:42] <ikonia> alazare619: yes, I used to use it a lot with HPUX
[19:42] <wolfric> it seems a good few things are getting stuck at Updating /etc/mail/aliases... when apt-get install. i thought it was just mail things but i went to install phpldapadmin just there and it's now stuck at that location
[19:42] <alazare619> ikonia: is it a jounraled fs?
[19:43] <liuyuan> Hi Guys
[19:43] <ikonia> alazare619: "J" fs
[19:43] <alazare619> ikonia: i noticed it is almost identical in speeds to ext2 but cant find if its jounraled or not
[19:43] <liuyuan> I'm trying to install Ubuntu 11.04 server edition 64bit on Hyper-V
[19:43] <ikonia> alazare619: the J stands for Journal
[19:43] <liuyuan> I keep on getting dropped packets
[19:43] <msp3k> I need help: I am trying to move my LDAP service to another host.  Everything is set up identically, and the service works for most users.  But for some reason, for some users, when their home areas are mounted all their files are owned by 4294967294:4294967294.
[19:43] <liuyuan> does anyone know how to help?
[19:43] <ikonia> liuyuan: hyperV is something you'll need to take up with microsoft, only Redhat is certified on it
[19:43] <chenthu> can anyone help me install natty?...been struggling for almost 6 days
[19:44] <ikonia> msp3k: check if that uid/gid exists on the old server
[19:44] <alazare619> ikonia: alright now i just need to figure what to backup and format over to jfs i noticed it has some of the least cpu usage of any fs too
[19:44] <liuyuan> ikonia: do you know if there's a #microsoft ?
[19:44] <ikonia> alazare619: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JFS_(file_system)
[19:44] <ikonia> liuyuan: no, there is not
[19:45] <liuyuan> Oh :(
[19:45] <alazare619> ikonia:  reading it now thanks
[19:45] <liuyuan> Where would be the best place for live community support?
[19:45] <jakemp> I think I am falling back to Unity-2D, how can I get back to 3D, or adjust the settings like I can in ccsm
[19:45] <ikonia> liuyuan: ##windows, but I doubt they will help
[19:45] <msp3k> The UID/GID only exists in the LDAP database, not in any local /etc/ files on any host.
[19:45] <ikonia> msp3k: does it exist on the new ldap server?
[19:46] <alazare619> ikonia:  i htink i just fell inlove with jfs its jounraled and has almost identical cpu / io use as ext2 wich isnt jounraled lol
[19:46] <msp3k> Yes.
[19:46] <jakemp> Unity 2D sucks.
[19:47] <ikonia> msp3k: is it possible the bind to ldap is not stable on the new server ?
[19:48] <msp3k> How can I tell if it's stable?  The commands id and getent both work and retrieve the correct information.
[19:48] <ikonia> msp3k: when the machine is failing to map a uid to a name, query the ldap database with an ldap search, see if there is a small delay before the search
[19:48] <ghostnik11> hi i am trying to get back into my ubuntu 11.04 partition but can't as i just installed fedora 15 in a dual boot
[19:48] <ikonia> msp3k: also look at the logs on the server and client
[19:49] <ikonia> ghostnik11: what did you do to the partition
[19:49] <eric_lewis> is there a bash support channel?
[19:49] <ikonia> eric_lewis: #bash
[19:49] <eric_lewis> silly me
[19:49] <ghostnik11> ikonia: nothing basically fedora took over the boot loader while in the installer from fedora live cd
[19:49] <ikonia> ghostnik11: so can you see the partition ?
[19:50] <ghostnik11> ikonia: yep and can mount it also
[19:50] <ghostnik11> ikonia: just can't boot into it
[19:50] <ikonia> ghostnik11: ok, so you need to join #fedora and ask them how to add a menu option to grub
[19:50] <danub> hey all. i just upgraded to 11.04 and im having issues with samba4 not installing due to several "unknown parameters". anyone else run into this issue?
[19:50] <jamesbond2>  Hi I'm trying to run apport-retrace but I get the follow error http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/653963/
[19:50] <ikonia> danub: how are you installing saba
[19:50] <jamesbond2> I have added the key but it still gives that error
[19:50] <danub> ikonia: it was part of the update from 10.10 -> 11.04
[19:51] <ghostnik11> ikonia: did that already added a menu option to it but when i click on ubuntu option says error invalid executable i think its b/c the path is wrong
[19:51] <warpi> hello! anyone have a tips of "file synchonization" program which recognizes if files have been moved?
[19:51] <ikonia> ghostnik11: correct the path then
[19:51] <danub> ikonia: it also refers to missing modules and a missing module path
[19:52] <ghostnik11> ikonia: thats the thing was looking for the grub.conf file in ubuntu but can find that file in the grub folder
[19:52] <ghostnik11> can't find that file in the grub folder
[19:52] <ikonia> ghostnik11: it's menu.lst in fedora, as I said, ask in #fedora
[19:52] <chenthu> can some one help meith this natty install?
[19:53] <danub> what will happen if i remove samba 4?
[19:53] <danub> will it break other packages?
[19:53] <ikonia> danub: are you using samba ?
[19:53] <danub> not that i am aware of
[19:53] <ikonia> danub: be fine then
[19:54] <danub> i have a hard mount to sda2 (ntfs), and a hard mount to a network share which is typed as ntfs3g. unless the ntfs3g is using samba, I shouldn't be using any
[19:54] <ikonia> danub: network shares are not ntfs3g
[19:55] <Pici> danub: Network shares shouldn't be mounted as ntfs3g.  Check the output of 'mount'
[19:55] <msp3k> Nothing in the logs, and ldapsearch returns right away.  Maybe I should reboot the NFS server from which the user's home area is being served?
[19:56] <mang0> How do I uninstall something from terminal?
[19:56] <mang0> sudo apt-remove programname
[19:56] <mang0> ?
[19:56] <ikonia> mang0: what do you want to remove
[19:56] <mang0> screenlets
[19:56] <ikonia> mang0: how did you install it
[19:57] <mang0> sudo apt-get install screenlets
[19:57] <ikonia> mang0: ok, so replace install with remove
[19:57] <mang0> ikonia: thanks
[19:58] <msp3k> This doesn't affect all hosts, only a select few.  And it doesn't affect all users, only three.  And it only seems to affect the NFS service.
[19:58] <ikonia> msp3k: you need to start looking at whats different with those hosts and users
[20:01] <Duckfd> How do you manually sync ubuntu one?
[20:02] <danub> oh f&*$! i just did a apt-get autoremove and it is removing 600 megs of files
[20:02] <msp3k> Hmm...  That's a tall task.  All machines are installed from the same setup script.  Installation is automated.  For now I will move LDAP back to the original server until I can figure this out.
[20:02] <danub> that cant be good
[20:03] <Technicus> Are there any Ubuntu web casts available?
[20:03] <danub> is there really 600 megs worth of stuff that is no longer needed after the upgrade to 11.04?
[20:04] <naptastic> danub, yep, that's typical.
[20:04] <fremen_> hello everyone, where i can reach the device manager of the ubuntu ? preferbly an alternative way to the console
[20:04] <Pici> fremen_: does   sudo lshw | less   do what you want?
[20:04] <danub> naptastic: oh thank god. the last time ubuntu wanted to remove that much stuff, it deleted everything but my home directory
[20:05] <naptastic> danub, wait
[20:05] <naptastic> danub, is it asking to *remove* 600MiB worth of stuff or to *upgrade* that much stuff?
[20:05] <danub> cant wait., its going and wont stop lol.
[20:05]  * naptastic winces
[20:05] <danub> its *removing* 600 megs
[20:05] <japoncem> join #twitter
[20:05] <fremen_> Pici_: thanks but i am not an expert at using console, is there program that is built in within ubuntu ?
[20:06] <naptastic> danub, well... when you discover your installation is trashed, roll back to 10.10. 11.04 is horrible anyway.
[20:06] <Myrtti> naptastic: downgrading is not really supported :-/
[20:06] <mystiqueba> so I removed LibreOffice to install openoffice and then II just run apt-get install openoffice.org and everything is messed up.  How do I purge both softwares and do a clean reinstall?
[20:07] <danub> well im hoping it isn't breaking anything because i have 19 gigs worth of stuff on here and none of it is personal (all packages)
[20:07] <ikonia> danub: then you should back it up
[20:07] <naptastic> Myrtti, I don't mean downgrade. I mean nuke it from orbit and redo from start. ;-)
[20:07] <Pici> fremen_: Sorry, I misunderstood your question.  What sort of devices are you looking to see the details of?
[20:08] <Myrtti> mystiqueba: was there a specific reason why you wanted openoffice instead of libreoffice? which version of ubuntu are you running anyway?
[20:08] <ikonia> the package manager has remove options
[20:08] <ikonia> open the package manager, search for the package and remove it
[20:09] <fremen_> Pici_: i must check if the ndivia GPU, bluetooth and webcam of the laptop are found by the system and working properly
[20:09] <mystiqueba> Myrtti, I had to had to save a csv file in utf-8 format and libreoffice wasn't working.  I'm using 11.04
[20:09] <Myrtti> that's odd
[20:09] <himcesjf> !manual gives a link to Ubuntu manual for 10.10. Is there any manual for Ubuntu 11.04?
[20:10] <mystiqueba> ikonia, I'm using unity and not sure exactly where to go.  The software center is telling me there are broken packages so I'm not able to use it to do much
[20:10] <ikonia> mystiqueba: have you added any PPA's or 3rd part repos ?
[20:10] <Pici> fremen_: Well, I don't think there is one app that can help you with that.  You can use the additional drivers tool (jockey-gtk) to determine if there are any proprietary drivers that could be installed.  Also by installing 'cheese' you can test if your webcam is working.  I'm not sure about bluetooth though.
[20:10] <mystiqueba> I must have
[20:10] <ikonia> mystiqueba: you must know ?
[20:10] <mystiqueba> how do i check that?
[20:10] <mystiqueba> ikonia, sorry... I'm a total newbie
[20:10] <ikonia> mystiqueba: please do "sudo apt-get update" and pastebin the output
[20:11] <mystiqueba> ikonia, will that upgrade me to the latest version of ubuntu?
[20:11] <ikonia> mystiqueba: no
[20:11] <ikonia> and you're using the latest anyway
[20:11] <himcesjf> Is there any manual for Ubuntu 11.04? Like Ubuntu manual for 10.10. ...
[20:11] <bustaplz> Copying files from Windows to my samba share on Ubuntu, I get at most 1.5MB/s throughput on gigabit connections. What is going on?
[20:11] <ikonia> himcesjf: https://help.ubuntu.com
[20:12] <mystiqueba> ikonia, everything worked fine.  how do i "pastebin the output?"
[20:12] <ikonia> !pastebin | mystiqueba
[20:12] <himcesjf> ikonia: Thanks but that gives pdf format for server not desktop ...
[20:13] <BBgamer> Hello all.
[20:13] <ikonia> himcesjf: no it doesn't it's a html website
[20:13] <ikonia> himcesjf: and it covers the desktop
[20:13] <BBgamer> Does anyone know a screenshot application for Ubuntu that doesn't suck. I've tried Shutter, and the default GNOME screenshot tool doesn't cut it.
[20:13] <ikonia> BBgamer: in what way doesn't cut it
[20:13] <himcesjf> ikonia: Yeah, I see but there is no document for the whole stuff?
[20:13] <ale760> scusate ma in italiano non parla nessuno
[20:14] <Pici> !it | ale760
[20:14] <fremen_> Pici_: thanks very much, i am using console now to get the information because a tool i just downloaded is not enough. thanks again :)
[20:14] <ikonia> !it | ale760
[20:14] <ikonia> himcesjf: I'm not sure if it's in a 1 document format anywhere
[20:14] <mystiqueba> ikonia, here's the link - http://paste.ubuntu.com/653971/
[20:14] <BBgamer> ikonia: It's just so... slow. On Windows, there's an application when I can press print screen and it uploads directly to imgur and gives me a popup with the link.
[20:14] <itu> warum wird meine Platte als  vfat  eingebunden  wenn überhaupt keine FAT-partitionen  vorhanden sind?  http://eiximenis.wikimedia.org/H8wsk8Zmhc
[20:15] <fremen_> is anyone here have Asus K53SV series laptop, or at least had used ubuntu on this laptop ?
[20:15] <spacebug-> !de | itu
[20:15] <ikonia> mystiqueba: only google as an external repo
[20:15] <itu> oh wrong channel
[20:15] <ikonia> mystiqueba: what software is it complaining about broken packages
[20:16] <xangua> BBgamer: i use https://launchpad.net/glippy for the same
[20:16] <xangua> and there are also scripts to do that
[20:16] <mang0> I'm just testing the ubuntu unity interface, and I've got a weird thing with the....thingy on the left (like a dock). Look: http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/yz26wryb/Workspace1_004.png I can't see any icons...why is this?
[20:16] <BBgamer> xangua: Thanks. This looks pretty nice.
[20:17] <bustaplz> Can someone help me verify 1Gbps connectivity on Ubuntu?
[20:17] <mang0> leave me a /memoserv if you know. I've gtg. Cya!
[20:17] <ikonia> bustaplz: how do you want it verified
[20:17] <bustaplz> ikonia: I don't know, I just trying to see if that is my transfer speed issue.
[20:18] <Technicus> Why is it sometimes necessary to have kernel headers to install packages?
[20:18] <ikonia> bustaplz: look at "ethtool"
[20:18] <ikonia> Technicus: some of them will need to be compiled or link against something, that requires kernel headers
[20:19] <mystiqueba> ikonia, it's complaining about libreoffice
[20:19] <bustaplz> ikonia: I installed ethtool, can you give me some idea how to utilize it?
[20:19] <danub> how do i add a directory to the root terminal shell path?
[20:19] <ikonia> bustaplz: ethtool $device
[20:19] <mystiqueba> I want to install the original open office but it keeps on giving me libreoffice instead and I think since I deleted it previously, I'm getting errors now
[20:19] <ikonia> danub: you shouldn't be using root
[20:19] <ikonia> danub: the root account is locked, you should not be using it or trying to use it
[20:20] <craigbass1976> Anyone had any luck running Silverlight apps in chromium?  In Lucid?
[20:20] <danub> ikonia: the application im using needs root
[20:20] <cypha> anyone here that uses chrome? I'm trying to get a popout window of Flash videos, like the Chrome Toolbox extension allows in Windows
[20:20] <ikonia> danub: what application
[20:20] <danub> airsnort/wireshark/etc
[20:21] <ikonia> danub: you don't need root, sudo is fine
[20:21] <danub> sure, i can sudo them, but its easier to bust out the root console
[20:21] <ikonia> danub: then you should know how to use it if you want to override the ubuntu security model
[20:22] <danub> i thought adding paths into /etc/environment was global, but it appears to not be used for the root terminal
[20:22] <BBgamer> Where can I find gtk-sharp-2.0
[20:22] <danub> is the root terminal justa  dumb root terminal? loading a normal terminal and logging in as root gives me the correct paths.
[20:23] <ikonia> danub: good luck then
[20:23] <genii-around> !info gtk-sharp2
[20:23] <BBgamer> Nice IRC bot.
[20:23] <rww> danub: root's terminal configuration is pretty minimal. It doesn't surprise me that it doesn't pull in environment variables.
[20:23] <bustaplz> ikonia: #ethtool eth0 tells me that the connection speed is 1000Mb/s. I assume this can be trusted?
[20:23] <ikonia> bustaplz: correct
[20:24] <bustaplz> ikonia: Thank you very much! Now I just need to figure out why Samba only transfers at 1MB/s!
[20:24] <danub> that's what i was beginning to think. thanks for the confirmation
[20:25] <BBgamer> !info gcof-sharp2
[20:25] <spacebug-> bustaplz: from where, through where, to where needs to be looked at to find that out
[20:25] <BBgamer> !info gconf-sharp2
[20:25] <BBgamer> !info gconf-sharp-2.0
[20:25] <craigbass1976> !moonlight
[20:26] <genii-around> BBgamer: You can also visit http://packages.ubuntu.com/ and browse there
[20:26] <craigbass1976> What if I'm not running mozilla?  Then what?
[20:26] <danub> ok, new question concerning this unity layout. i have a terminal saved to the panel, but clicking, right click, double clicking doesn't load a second. that cant be right. how do you load more then 1 of the same application?
[20:26] <spacebug-> danub: middle click
[20:26] <danub> <- using netbook. there is no middle click
[20:26] <BBgamer> Thanks :)
[20:27] <bustaplz> spacebug-: Transferring from Windows 7 x64(also connected at 1Gbps) to Ubuntu 11.04 with Samba v3.5.8
[20:27] <NoiseEee> hi, i've done a "sudo XXX" command just fine, but now I want to be prompted for my password again... how to get ubuntu to forget that i've already given it my password
[20:27] <danbeam> if I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 but want continued package updates/support, is it possible for me to just add some other release's repos to /etc/apt/sources.list (i.e. lucid)
[20:27] <danbeam> ?
[20:27] <spacebug-> bustaplz: is it just samba or any type of transfer?
[20:27] <xangua> danub: press both trackpad buttons for middle clic
[20:27] <xangua> also control+clic
[20:28] <danub> thank you xangua
[20:28] <bustaplz> spacebug-: samba is the only transfer I can really think to try at the moment.
[20:28] <xangua> !eol
[20:28] <xangua> danbeam: no, please upgrade to a supported version
[20:29] <craigbass1976> Bah!  Moonlight isn't firing up the app in firefox either...  Is there some group of programmers conspiring against me being able to ditch windows at work?
[20:30] <joeb> Hi, I was trying to install a .deb on a fresh 11.04 install and it keeps asking for the install CD repeatedly. How can I fix this?
[20:31] <danbeam> xangua: is there anyway to do this while minimizing downtime via only SSH?  do-dist-upgrade?
[20:31] <BBgamer> joeb - Have you verified the ISO's integrity?
[20:31] <genii-around> NoiseEee: You can append the "defaults" line in sudoers with visudo, adding timestamp_timeout=# where # is how many minutes to time-out.
[20:31] <joeb> BBgamer: I've used it for installs in the past. How could I go about doing that to confirm?
[20:32] <BBgamer> joeb: What OS are you on at the minute?
[20:32] <joeb> Hmm. Seemed the CD mounted to /media but it was looking for it at /cdrom. I just mounted it there and it appears to be okay.
[20:32] <Dreamer3> where can i find a log indicating if my croons are running?
[20:32] <joeb> BBgamer: The actual machine.
[20:32] <BBgamer> joeb: What Operating System? Ubuntu?
[20:32] <Dreamer3> i can run the command fine manually but for some reason cron isn't running it or it isn't working
[20:32] <joeb> Huh, that seemed to solve the problem. Manually mounting the CD in the place it was looking for it at.
[20:32] <Dreamer3> wanting to know where to look first
[20:32] <joeb> BBgamer: Yes, sorry. 11.04
[20:33] <moZzo> i'm just working with some networking ruels in ubuntu but is there anybody to explain about this :   192.168.1.0/24   what does it mean?
[20:33] <Pici> Dreamer3: You should see an entry in /var/log/auth.log at least
[20:33] <BBgamer> joeb: Check this wiki article out: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
[20:33] <joeb> BBgamer: Thank you.
[20:33] <BBgamer> joeb: And then compare your ISO's hash with the hash listed here.
[20:33] <BBgamer> joeb: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes
[20:33] <danbeam> moZzo: all the IPs in your class C network (i.e. 192.168.1.{0-255})
[20:34] <danbeam> moZzo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classless_Inter-Domain_Routing#CIDR_blocks
[20:34] <danbeam> moZzo: named a CIDR
[20:35] <Dreamer3> Pici: what am i looking for exactly?
[20:35] <charley> hi, my screen resolution is messed up, its too small, how can i change it back to normal?
[20:36] <BBgamer> charley: Go to 'Additional Drivers' in 'System - Administration'
[20:36] <BBgamer> charley: And then install the drivers and reboot.
[20:36] <Faustus2> my mouse-singleclicks are randomly working like doubleclicks in my ubuntu 11.04, anyone know how to solve this? must be a bug or something?
[20:36] <BBgamer> charley: It should then be fixed.
[20:36] <BBgamer> charley: If not , go to 'System - Monitors' and check the resolution there.
[20:37] <BBgamer> Faustus2: Go to System - Preferences - Mouse and see if your settings are messed up?
[20:37] <danbeam> xangua: is there anyway to do this while minimizing downtime via only SSH?  do-dist-upgrade?
[20:37] <Dreamer3> Pici: i'm trying to figure out if my croons are even running
[20:37] <Pici> Dreamer3: just a moment
[20:38] <Dreamer3> i'm confused because i've never known cron to be flakey before
[20:38] <danbeam> Dreamer3: tail -f /var/log/cron.log # CTRL+C to quit
[20:38] <Dreamer3> i have no cron.log
[20:38] <Faustus2> BBgamer: no messed up settings there
[20:39] <Pici> Dreamer3: Sorry, look in /var/log/syslog, you should have entries there for each cron task that was started.
[20:39] <BBgamer> Faustus2: I know this may sound dumb, but try reconnecting your mouse?
[20:39] <Pici> Dreamer3: Theres a lot of other stuff in there too, the lines you want will look like: Jul 28 06:55:01 hostname CRON[13755]: (root)
[20:40] <Faustus2> BBgamer: no luck, keep it commin ;P
[20:40] <Dreamer3> Pici: it's got like nothing useful
[20:40] <Dreamer3> like the cron jobs aren't even running
[20:40] <Dreamer3> i just see my edits to crontab
[20:40] <spacebug-> bustaplz: still there? I got a test for you
[20:41] <Pici> Dreamer3: Do you have a newline at the end of the crontab?
[20:41] <craigbass1976> where are chromium preferences stored?
[20:41] <Dreamer3> Pici: no?
[20:41] <Dreamer3> well on the last line yes
[20:41] <Pici> Dreamer3: Add one.
[20:41] <spacebug-> bustaplz: oh wait. no that needs to be between two linux machines
[20:41] <BBgamer> Faustus2: Maybe this is relevant to your issue? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1217181
[20:42] <norbert_> hey all, when I want to use the most recent and fastest nvidia driver, should I install nvidia-current?
[20:42] <danbeam> Pici: maybe he doesn't have cron running either, ps aux | grep cron or sudo service cron restart # or maybe anacron
[20:42] <moZzo> danbeam: tnx ,, but do u have any idea why we don't write like this 192.168.1.0/23 or 192.168.1.0/16????????????/
[20:42] <BBgamer> Faustus2: It also seems there's a launchpad bug page. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/365300
[20:42] <charley> BBgamer, amazing, worked great thank you!
[20:42] <BBgamer> charley: No problem!
[20:42] <danbeam> moZzo: different netmask
[20:43] <Dreamer3> hmmm
[20:43] <Dreamer3> maybe cron just wasn't running
[20:43] <Dreamer3> i started it
[20:43] <BBgamer> Just a quick question here. Why was gdebi removed?
[20:44] <bustaplz> spacebug-: were you going to tell me to try iperf?
[20:44] <bustaplz> =D
[20:44] <spacebug-> bustaplz: no program 'nc' and then check speed with 'iptraf'
[20:44] <moZzo> danbeam: yeah.. the net mask will change...soo if we do that for exp 192.168.1.0/16 then what do we have to do with net mask???? :D
[20:45] <bustaplz> spacebug-: grabbed my mac and ran iperf between it and my ubuntu box, 921Mbps
[20:45] <Pici> BBgamer: It is still in the repos, but I believe  that the Software center is now handling .deb installs. Theres only limited space on the Live CD, so duplicated programs get removed.
[20:45] <spacebug-> bustaplz: ok, and between mac and windows?
[20:46] <BBgamer> Pici: I've installed it manually. Thanks for the answer though, I guessed that. The Software centre is horrible for .deb installs however.
[20:46] <bustaplz> spacebug-: let me transfer a file between my mac and windows box
[20:46] <danbeam> moZzo: 192.168.0.0/16 only matches the first 16 bits, so it's just less specific
[20:46] <Pici> BBgamer: Its not for me either, but thats the way things are.
[20:47] <bustaplz> spacebug-: I'm getting 1.13-1.31MB/s transferring a file from Windows 7 to a samba share on my Mac.
[20:48] <bustaplz> as we speak
[20:49] <Rc43> Hi.
[20:50] <Rc43> I have some questions about customization. I have just installed fresh ubuntu and customized my panels, but can't find way to make panel lie in "bottom layer".
[20:51] <Rc43> I mean such state, that all windows covers it.
[20:55] <GeorgeJ> How would one resize the root partition without using a live cd?
[20:55] <edbian> GeorgeJ: You cannot.
[20:56] <KM0201> GeorgeJ: one would not be able to.
[20:56] <KM0201> GeorgeJ: i guess one could use a Live USB...
[20:57] <GeorgeJ> Are you absolutely sure? What about chrooting into a ramdisk, unmounting the root parititon, resizing and mounting it back?
[20:58] <quiescens> chroot doesn't work that way
[20:58] <fremen_> i am unable to use or activate bluetooth with ubuntu 10.10, can anyone help ?
[20:58] <quiescens> certain filesystem types can be resized in use
[20:58] <dajxd> is it impossible to create a bootable xp/ubuntu thumbdrive in os x?
[20:58] <GeorgeJ> quiescens: Would ext4 be one such fs?
[20:59] <quiescens> i believe more and more of the current filesystems support being extended while mounted
[20:59] <kloplop321> I'm having trouble with compositing. I have 2 GTX 450s, and 3 screens. When I enable compositing, my mouse can still go over all the screens, but everything behind the mouse is duplicated to each screen from the left-most screen. (however the duplicated windows don't react if I have my mouse on my other screens)
[20:59] <GeorgeJ> quiescens: I'm interested in shrinking actually
[20:59] <quiescens> but few filesystems support being reduced while mounted
[21:00] <odn_> hi
[21:01] <odn_> http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=587191 an idea someone ? 4th system cloning restauration today...
[21:02] <quiescens> to my knowledge, ext(insert number) do not currently have support for being shrunk while mounted, but do support being extended
[21:03] <kasinsk> comand list process?
[21:05] <ADsad> can ubuntu be installed from windows vista so that it runs outside of it?
[21:05] <ADsad> I don't have a flash drive or dvd-r handy
[21:05] <kloplop321> kasinsk: active processes: top; ps also helps
[21:05] <kloplop321> ADsad: wubi can sorta do it, don't update grub or the kernel though
[21:06] <kasinsk> ok
[21:06] <ADsad> I thought wubi was to run ubuntu from within windows
[21:06] <ADsad> I don't want to do that
[21:06] <ADsad> only install it seperately
[21:07] <ghostnik11> i am trying to correct my grub.conf file in fedora 15 so that grub can recognize my ubuntu 11.04 partition but get this error; error 13: invalid or unsupported executable format
[21:08] <cypha> how can I pop a video out of a webpage, so I can adjust the size and all?
[21:08] <cypha> chrome toolbox allows this to be done in windows, but not linux
[21:09] <ADsad> let me get this straight... can wubi install a regular install of ubuntu that boots from a seperate partition, or is it some sort of silly thing where you run from within windows?
[21:09] <ADsad> my entire point is to bypass windows
[21:09] <sc30317> hey all, I am trying to setup a cron job.  I have the following: capgemini@Capgemini-HP:~$ crontab -l
[21:09] <sc30317> */5 * * * * sh /home/capgemini/scripts/runsqlcommand.sh
[21:09] <sc30317> */5 * * * * sh /home/capgemini/scripts/runsqlcommand2.sh
[21:09] <kloplop321> ADsad: it doesn't run inside windows, but it runs inside a pre-allocated image file(one huge container), and the windows boot manager boots into that instead of windows
[21:09] <ThinkT510> ADsad: wubi runs within windows
[21:09] <sc30317> but they aren't running every 5 minutes
[21:09] <sc30317> why not?
[21:09] <kloplop321> ThinkT510: well, sorta, but only in its file system.
[21:10] <kloplop321> sc30317: I'm guessing running sh /home/capgemini/scripts/runsqlcommand.sh works?
[21:10] <ADsad> kloplop321: so it isn't really what I want to install, correct?
[21:10] <ADsad> I just don't have a handy dvd-r or a flash drive to boot from
[21:10] <kloplop321> ADsad: well, its not like a virtual machine, its not in another partition
[21:11] <kloplop321> You need a flash drive ultimately.
[21:11] <kloplop321> have you set chmod +x on those .sh files, sc30317?
[21:11] <sc30317> kloplop321, yes they work
[21:11] <kloplop321> Anyway, I'm here because of this problem, its a 2 minute recording explaining "before" and "after", http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnZK3IzuAgM
[21:11] <sc30317> kloplop321, and I have given them R/W permissions
[21:12] <kloplop321> but Execution?
[21:12] <sc30317> kloplop321, yes
[21:12] <sc30317> sorry
[21:12] <sc30317> R/W/X
[21:12] <kloplop321> sc30317: I wish I could help you out more, I don't have too much experience with chron :/
[21:12] <kloplop321> cron*
[21:13] <sc30317> kloplop321, thanks anyway
[21:13] <sc30317> anyone else?
[21:14] <ThinkT510> kloplop321: wow, 2 graphics cards and 3 screens, nice setup
[21:14] <kloplop321> ThinkT510: still a troubling issue..
[21:15] <fremen_> i have a bluetooth problem with my Asus laptop. it says "unable to power up the bluetooth, connection timed out", can anyone help me with this ?
[21:15] <kloplop321> fremen_: I've had that problem with cheapo chinese bluetooth adaptors after they've had some damage,
[21:15] <kloplop321> it's pretty irritating
[21:16] <kloplop321> But wait, is this an embedded unit?
[21:17] <fremen_> kloplop321_: but this bluetooth is integrated within the Asus laptop, i believe its a software issue, although i am not sure.
[21:17] <bartipl> hi
[21:17] <kloplop321> fremen_: okay, please do lsusb and lspci and look for that bluetooth unit
[21:17] <kloplop321> that way we can find the hardware ID to match to a potential driver
[21:17] <norbert_> hey all, I have a super weird problem with my audio

[21:18] <bartipl> ok thx
[21:18] <norbert_> kloplop321: dunno, you mean like when I reboot the machine?
[21:19] <Python> hmm
[21:19] <kloplop321> norbert_: I mean call end, try calling again, see if the problem persists
[21:19] <kloplop321> If it does, try running a program recorder, such as audacity, and see if your recording is delayed as you record it.
[21:19] <Python> [Fatal 00:17:28.265] DBus could not be found and is required by Docky. Exiting.

[21:20] <kloplop321> Python: Start dbus.
[21:20] <fremen_> kloplop321_: i was unable to find anything that says "bluetooth" in both inquires. should i look for any other spesific name ? there is a lot of intel for example
[21:20] <Python> kloplop321, dbus is started
[21:21] <Python> err

[21:21] <kloplop321> fremen_: do me a favor, run both lspci and then lsusb and copy the outputs and go to pastebin.ubuntu.com and paste it in, and then give the link to the page it brings you to so I can see whats going on
[21:21] <norbert_> kloplop321: apparently restarting the Skype conversation solved the problem
[21:21] <kloplop321> Python: does this problem persist when you restart?
[21:21] <kloplop321> norbert_: glad that worked,
[21:22] <fremen_> kloplop321_: can i show you in private irc channel ? the other ways seems a little beyond me :)
[21:22] <Heinrich> hi!
[21:22] <kloplop321> fremen_: If you pasted it into IRC, it would likely kick you out for flooding, please just use pastebin.
[21:22] <chowder> fremen_: awesome nick. I love Dune.
[21:23] <fremen_> chowder_: thank you :) although i like it too, i havent read the books
[21:23] <fremen_> kloplop321_: alright i try klop
[21:24] <Python> Hey Heinrich
[21:24] <Python> kloplop321, dunno
[21:24] <Python> gonna restart
[21:24] <kloplop321> Python: wish you luck.
[21:24] <Python> what's apt-get autoremove pacman's equivalent
[21:24] <connelly> could someone help me out figuring out how to get btrfs to do a device scan before it loads the filesystems in /etc/fstab? (11.04)
[21:25] <Pici> Python: Why would we know how pacman works?
[21:25] <kloplop321> Python: your best bet is to ask the arch folks, I think.
[21:26] <Python> ok
[21:26] <fremen_> kloplop321_: alright i passed it, its code is 654004
[21:26] <ThinkT510> Python: you need to have a registered nick to join #archlinux
[21:26] <kloplop321> please, a URL, don't make me figure it out
[21:26] <Python> I know, ThinkT510 ^^
[21:27] <italoxp> Anybody using  GNOME 3?

[21:28] <Logan_> !9.04 | bobbingham
[21:28] <Heinrich> I've got a problem with pitivi. When I install the latest version from their ppa. It doesn't support hardware acceleration preview mode.
[21:28] <fremen_> kloplop321_: how many days after these things get erased do you know ?
[21:29] <kloplop321> they usually don't.
[21:29] <bobbingham> i want to work on an older version, so would like to stick with 9.04. curious to learn how /shadow works and why my attempts arent working

[21:30] <Mindcrawl> I am look‌ing to set up a VPN connection with a server so that i can stay anon on the net, after I make this said VPN connection is it then possible to send that connecion to another proxy server?
[21:30] <Heinrich> But, with the previous version I was.
[21:31] <fremen_> kloplop321_: did you find anything ?
[21:31] <kloplop321> fremen_: no idea if this will work, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup Try following the section that matches your distribution version, such as 11.04
[21:31] <Pewt> hi!
[21:32] <ResQue> I am booting a custom ubuntu live cd from Grub2, using the following "linux (loop)/casper/vmlinuz boot=casper iso-scan/filename=$isofile quiet splash noprompt --" Will this still be a readonly file system?
[21:32] <user82> is there any tool emulating a slow cpu..for testing minimum requirement of an app?
[21:32] <Pewt> Does Ubunu work with no swap partition, but with a swap file?
[21:32] <Telephone> *********** OHAI EVERYONE ***********
[21:32] <kloplop321> Pewt: yes
[21:32] <fremen_> kloplop321_: i am using 10.10 will 10.04 will work for me ?
[21:32] <ResQue> Is there a way i can set readonly flag in the boot options, i thikn squashFS is readonly anyway right, i would just like some clarity before i start screwing around trying to learn a bit more about ubuntu
[21:32] <Pewt> kloplop321: Ah, great!
[21:32] <kloplop321> fremen_: maybe,
[21:33] <kloplop321> Pewt: probably best to put into your fstab so it is mounted on startup.
[21:33] <Heinrich> Uset82 cpu tray applet
[21:33] <kloplop321> Heinrich: wrong tab complete
[21:34] <kloplop321> or, just a mistype
[21:34] <wildbat> !bootoption > ResQue
[21:34] <Pewt> kloplop321: can I only follow this guid https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq ?
[21:34] <Heinrich> Wrong tab?
[21:34] <ResQue> wildbat, thanks
[21:34] <fremen_> kloplop321_: if this will not work, it is possible for these commands to ruin my ubuntu installation ?
[21:34] <user82> Heinrich, forcing a multiplier for cpu?
[21:34] <fremen_> kloplop321_:  destablize perhaps ?
[21:35] <kloplop321> Pewt: Four-step Process to Add Swap File, follow that section
[21:35] <Heinrich> There is a tray applet to unlock your cpu
[21:35] <kloplop321> fremen_: not those ones.
[21:35] <user82> yeah..good idea for a test
[21:36] <fremen_> kloplop321_:  one last thing, was the information i pasted to the ubuntu site personal / important that should be deleted ?
[21:36] <kloplop321> fremen_: none.
[21:36] <fremen_> kloplop321_:  are you realy sure ?
[21:37] <Pewt> kloplop321: thank you! I will follow that guide.
[21:37] <kloplop321> Its just hardware info, only describing things like the chipset used in your laptop model, none of it is identifiable information
[21:37] <kloplop321> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1814008 here's my problem... if anyone wants to help me...
[21:38] <kloplop321> fremen_: its information, that if you went on the forums, will likely be asked so they can help you.
[21:39]  * edbian was right :)
[21:39] <bfri> can anyone help me translate open office from spanish to english?
[21:39] <afed> hi. my laptop running 11.04 freezes when i close the lid. any idea why?
[21:39] <sam123> hello, could I get some help with my wireless card? I can't connect my laptop via wireless interface. Please check the lspci output here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/653893/
[21:40] <edbian> afed: It's trying to hibernate / suspend probably.  Those two things do not work well in Linux.
[21:40] <edbian> sam123: reading...
[21:40] <sam123> edbian: thanks :)
[21:40] <kloplop321> bfri: uh, change your regional settings if the menus are in spanish. If the document is in spanish, please use something like google translate.
[21:40] <afed> edbian:  can i prevent it from doing that?
[21:40] <edbian> afed: Yep!  power management options :)
[21:41] <edbian> sam123: never seen this before!! A challange :)
[21:41] <kloplop321> fremen_: as you can see, lspci is commonly used with these kinds of problems, like sam123. Sorry sam123, I don't know what to do about that
[21:41] <Kartagis>  /etc/network/if-up.d/iptables should be executed on network up, yes?
[21:41] <bfri> kloplop321 they are the menues that i want to change not the content of the document.  how do i change those regional settings?
[21:42] <sam123> edbian: yaaaay ;) are you up to it? I googled a lot but I found nothing related with Cisco Aironet and Ubuntu :(
[21:42] <edbian> sam123: I can try!
[21:42] <afed> my laptop running 11.04 freezes when i close the lid. any idea why? in power management it is set to 'blank screen' on lid close.
[21:42] <sam123> edbian: that works for me :)
[21:42] <edbian> sam123: PM me?
[21:42] <fremen_> kloplop321_:  i just tried the tutorial you have gave to me, and its not working because for first sudo code, its says i already have the 3 packages installed and when i try hcitool dev command, no device is seen
[21:42] <edbian> afed: Does it close upon immediately closing the lid?
[21:43] <kloplop321> I see...
[21:43] <kloplop321> bfri: check something like "Language Support" or something along those lines under settings
[21:43] <edbian> afed: Does it *freeze immediately upon...
[21:43] <fremen_> kloplop321_:  so literaliy ubuntu dont see bluetooth
[21:43] <kloplop321> fremen_: so, you're device can't get past the initation stage, and its not even activating..
[21:43] <afed> edbian: no, it doesnt. it blanks but only after a while does it freeze (usually) if at all.
[21:43] <multipass|2> gd
[21:43] <fremen_> kloplop321_:  but it is seen at desktop :)
[21:44] <dessico> Has anyone tried installing ubuntu on an Asus 1215n netbook?
[21:44] <fremen_> kloplop321_:  what should i do next ?
[21:44] <kloplop321> this is built into the laptop, right?
[21:44] <kloplop321> or, is it an acer desktop that we are talking about, fremen_
[21:44] <edbian> afed: It's freezing after probably 20 minutes which is the default to hibernate.  Are you using 11.04 ?
[21:44] <Heinrich> I've got a bluetooth problem too
[21:44] <afed> edbian: yes i am
[21:44] <edbian> afed: Hang on
[21:44] <afed> thanks great
[21:45] <RonyBirra> who is the channel of the ubuntu in spanish ?
[21:45] <fremen_> kloplop321_:  no it is an Asus laptop and is an integrated bluetooth not a external one
[21:45] <kloplop321> so, then why do you say desktop can see it?
[21:45] <edbian> afed: arrgghh.  I can't look at an Ubuntu machine right now.
[21:46] <afed> ok :)
[21:46] <edbian> How can afed change how long before his system suspends??!
[21:46] <RonyBirra> #join ubuntu-es
[21:46] <kloplop321> !es | RonyBirra
[21:46] <RonyBirra> thanks
[21:46] <kloplop321> wow, such a helpful bot
[21:46] <fremen_> kloplop321_:  in my computer destop , there is a bluetooth symbol that says activate or deactive bluetooth
[21:47] <afed> edbian: you're right, i see it in another tab in power mgmnt. thanks
[21:47] <kloplop321> okay.. so the software realises that a device exists.
[21:47] <kloplop321> the hci dev or whatever command probably only works with already-active devices...
[21:48] <edbian> afed: sure
[21:48] <fremen_> kloplop321_:  then how do i activate it ?
[21:48] <kloplop321> fremen_: at this point, I suggest trying slower but long-term support on the forums in the Hardware and laptops section, http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=332
[21:48] <Heinrich> Fremen_ I've exactly thr same problem
[21:48] <kloplop321> I encourage you to include the lscpi and lsusb output with your post, and describe the problem in full.
[21:48] <Heinrich> It is a known bug
[21:49] <valleydaddy78> how do i burn movie with the defualt burner that will play on all devices
[21:49] <valleydaddy78> im using -r disc
[21:49] <fremen_> Heinrich_: hi , have you been able to fix it ?
[21:49] <kloplop321> fremen_: I'm sorry, but I can't help you past that for the current time
[21:49] <Kartagis>  /etc/network/if-up.d/iptables should be executed on network up, yes? why wasn't it executed?
[21:49] <Heinrich> No, i've bought a usb donglr for 5 bucks
[21:49] <fremen_> kloplop321_:  its ok :) thanks very much anyway
[21:50] <kloplop321> fremen_: I wish you the best.
[21:50] <bfri> kloplop321 can you get specific on that because my system is in spanish.  how many menues from the left and how many options down?
[21:50] <tripelb> I changed the monitor. 10.04 - and I now have a floating box that says, "out of range". and the aspect ratio is slightly distorted. I can tell by the desktop. What should I do?
[21:50] <fremen_> kloplop321_:  its very good to have someone to tell you what to do, instead of searching internet :D
[21:50] <kloplop321> bfri: are you in ubuntu, xubuntu, or what?
[21:50] <bfri> kloplp321 ubuntu
[21:50] <tripelb> bfri, can one change the language without rebooting?
[21:50] <th0r> Kartagis: I don't think ifup is called if you are using network manager. Did you define the network in /etc/network/interfaces?
[21:51] <Kartagis> th0r: let me see
[21:51] <kloplop321> bfri: hold on, I have spanish on my netbook I think.
[21:51] <bfri> tripelb: yes i think so
[21:51] <bfri> you just reboot the program
[21:51] <Kartagis> th0r: yes, it's there
[21:51] <kloplop321> its pretty much instantaneous, that or a log out log back in changes it
[21:52]  * kloplop321 is booting his netbook
[21:52] <fremen_> Heinrich_: i also have a problem with the graphic card of the laptop, geforce gt 540M. its properity driver leaves ubuntu unable to go GUİ and stuck at command line, do you have this problem also ?
[21:53] <th0r> Kartagis: ok....just checking. I got burned on that detail with a recent install of debian <smile>
[21:54] <Kartagis> I've to go, 1am here and work tomorrow
[21:54] <kloplop321> bfri: Systema or something ->(Administration(second down))->Lingua or so(language support, 5 down)
[21:54] <bfri> kloplp321 yeah that looks like it, thanks!!!
[21:55] <kloplop321> bfri: english should be near the top in the list it shows at the top of the window, if not, there is a button that is at the bottom that says something like install remove languages
[21:55] <kloplop321> find english in there
[21:55] <kloplop321> wish you the best bfri
[21:55] <Heinrich> fremen_ No, I am using a asus m51sn

[22:08] <Thrawn> i tried to get GNOME 3 for my fresh 11.04 ubuntu install, but after installing it and rebooting it wont load any GUI at all. i think Xorg is broken :( cant do anything but ctrl alt f1 to shell. any idea how to repair that?
[22:08] <dingus> vlt sorry for the delay ,still at work....  found it wirelessly on the network it recognized it  but didn't seem to work (don't remember the message offhand)
[22:08] <blade> Thrawn, it should have had a backup of your xorg.conf
[22:09] <blade> Thrawn, i can help you with the command lines to check if that is what you are looking for
[22:09] <Thrawn> blade: im looking for getting GNOME 3 working :)
[22:09] <bastidrazor> !gnome3 | Thrawn
[22:10] <Thrawn> yea i know <.<
[22:10] <blade> Thrawn, i understand that :) but we need to get you into GUI first... will it let you boot safe mode
[22:10] <Thrawn> blade: no
[22:10] <Thrawn> failsave graphics wont load either
[22:11] <philipballew> how do i get a folder and all its contents o not have root privlege but be normal user?
[22:11] <blade> Thrawn, ok give me a min and i will help you with the command lines to see if your xorg is backed up and if so how to load the back up
[22:11] <Thrawn> i mean when i boot recovery mode, and then i get that menu where i could choose load failsave graphics: that wont load
[22:11] <Thrawn> thanks blade!

[22:13] <tru3fate1> is there anything the can give me privacy when im downloading something from P2P
[22:13] <xangua> !br | vinax
[22:13] <bastidrazor> philipballew: what folder is that?
[22:14] <LBo> Does anyone know how to send a mail from the commandline to a specific server? I'm testing out my postfix config
[22:14] <blade> tru3fate1, look at iblocklist.com
[22:14] <LBo> Without using telnet :)
[22:14] <philipballew> its my flash drive with music on it bastidrazor
[22:14] <Psydoll> LBo: you can use pine
[22:15] <qin> philipballew: pmount (to mount with no sudo)
[22:15] <blade> Thrawn, ok the command lines you will need ... first you need to see if you have a backup... so cd /etc/X11    then you need to do "dir" and see if you have a back up
[22:15] <LBo> I was actually looking for something simpler like the mail command from mailx(?)
[22:15] <philipballew> qin the files are with root privlige
[22:16] <tucemiux> Here's a really good one, my ubuntu desktop can let me access my lan but it wont let me access the internet!
[22:16] <blade> Thrawn, if you do you will need to stay in that dir and delete your xorg.conf so you can replace it... the command from that dir will be sudo rm xorg.conf   that will delete it
[22:16] <tripelb> heinrich talking on phone, have to let this wait
[22:17] <sc30317> how do I change the enviornment variables for cron?
[22:17] <Thrawn> ok one sec, switching to ubuntu :P im here as thrawn_ from my second laptop ~~
[22:17] <Heinrich> Ok
[22:17] <blade> Thrawn_, ok just let me know when you are ready
[22:18] <qin> philipballew: sudo chown username:username /media/<disk>/fileyouwanttolisten_or_use_*_for_bath
[22:19] <tucemiux> I can access my lan but i cant access the internet????
[22:21] <joel135> tucemiux: could you try entering this url in the web browser? 209.85.149.104
[22:21] <philipballew> qin, how can i make that affect all files inside the directory?
[22:22] <joel135> tucemiux: it's one of google's ips btw
[22:22] <tucemiux> joel135: yeah, that one works! so how do I fix my dns? o_O
[22:22] <Thrawn> gah something banned me x.x
[22:22] <Thrawn> blade: i dont see anything that looks like a backup, in X11
[22:22] <blade> xbox 360 wired controller should be plug and play ... but when i run lsusb all i get is "Bus 007 Device 007: ID 162e:beef"
[22:23] <blade> Thrawn, no xorg.conf.something
[22:23] <joel135> tucemiux: i suppose you could enter a dns server manually
[22:23] <Thrawn> blade : i got xorg.conf.failsafe
[22:23] <blade> Thrawn, thats your backup
[22:23] <Thrawn> ah nice
[22:23] <joel135> tucemiux: System > Preferences > Network Connections
[22:24] <blade> Thrawn, we can delete the xorg.conf that is not working and then replace it with that one if you would like
[22:24] <qin> philipballew: chwon -R (recrusive, so very carefull, read man chown))
[22:24] <qin> *chown
[22:24] <Thrawn> blade:somehow there is only that xorg.conf.failsafe, but no xorg.config file at all
[22:25] <joel135> tucemiux: go to the profile you're using
[22:25] <blade> thrawn. that could be a problem... do you have medit?
[22:25] <tucemiux> joel135: i think that was cached though, can you give me the ip to something ridiculous that i probably never been to before?  ive see watchparis.com plenty of times, by the way
[22:25] <ministerdude> usb support absolutly refuses to mount in virtual box..
[22:25] <joel135> tucemiux: sure, svt.se
[22:26] <Thrawn> blade: i have a fresh 11.04 install, i think its in there isnt it? :)
[22:26] <joel135> tucemiux: 82.99.28.150
[22:26] <blade> Thrawn, try "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe
[22:26] <tucemiux> joel135: it worked !
[22:26] <blade> Thrawn, that will let you see what is in that file
[22:26] <joel135> tucemiux: great! did you read what I wrote earlier?
[22:27] <blade> Thrawn, i an no expert at this but as far as i understand it you need xorg.conf to load GUI
[22:27] <tucemiux> i'm in network connectinos right now
[22:27] <Thrawn> blade:ok i get medit ... command not found, and gedit: cannot open display
[22:27] <tucemiux> joel135: im in networking connections, dont see etho thouogh, just eth1 and eth2
[22:27] <edbian> blade: Thrawn You do not HAVE to have an xorg.conf  By default Ubuntu does not have one.
[22:27] <Thrawn> blade: im noob, but i broke Xorg so many times, that i know its vital for loading a GUI :(
[22:28] <casey> italoxp: are you here?
[22:28] <blade> thrawn "sudo nano edit etc/X11/xorg.conf.falesafe
[22:28] <Thrawn> eh
[22:28] <Thrawn> works
[22:28] <Thrawn> the file is empty :(
[22:28] <bastidrazor> Thrawn: you've attempted to install gnome 3. you have broken things :(
[22:28] <joel135> tucemiux: could you open a terminal, type "ifconfig" without quotes, and paste it on http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[22:28] <blade> edbian that is the way the new gui works then right .... back in the day you HAD to have one and have it set right
[22:29] <edbian> blade: Yes I believe so.
[22:29] <Thrawn> bastidrazor:but i followed the guides :( it was just add repo, update, distro-update, and install gnome-shell; didnt look like much work -_-
[22:29] <Thrawn> - and that to a fresh 11.04
[22:30] <blade> edbian,  Thrawn has installed Gnome 3 and can not load to GUI now .... only thought i have is to rename his xorg.conf.falilsafe
[22:30] <Thrawn> which is empty
[22:30] <edbian> blade: It's a good guess
[22:30] <xangua> there is no xorg.cong on ubuntu Thrawn blade
[22:30] <blade> Thrawn, i think that is just a problem with nano edit
[22:30] <edbian> Thrawn: if the file appears empty you made a typo (xorg.conf would likely not exist if it was empty)
[22:31] <Thrawn> ah ok will retry
[22:31] <xangua> Thrawn: if you added the gnome3 pap, i recomend you to reinstall your system
[22:31] <xangua> ppa*
[22:31] <Shishire> torrent.ubuntu.com seems to be behaving strangely, I'm getting "connection closed by peer" errors while trying to download a 10.04 server 32-bit iso.
[22:31] <blade> and this is why i stayed with 10.10 ;)
[22:31] <mengu> hi. when i'm watching flash or html videos on both firefox and chrome, some times later it all goes crazy and my standart output is removed from the device list in the sound manager. the sound goes off.
[22:32] <cypha> how do I start an app with login?
[22:32] <edbian> cypha: System -> Admin -> Startup
[22:32] <Thrawn> blade: ok i got that xorg.conf.failsafe loaded now; now save it with name Xorg.config ?
[22:32] <blade> no
[22:33] <blade> Thrawn, as long as you know it's good we will use sudo command to rename it
[22:33] <blade> Thrawn, the command is "sudo mv xorg.conf.failsafe xorg.conf"
[22:34] <Thrawn> blade: done :)
[22:34] <mengu> does anyone have any idea why is this happening? i am using ubuntu 11.04 on an acer aspire 7750g
[22:34] <blade> Thrawn, do "dir"
[22:34] <Thrawn> blade: its there
[22:34] <Draukon> Does anyone know, do most USB webcam just work "out of the box" or does one have to be careful in choosing them?
[22:35] <blade> Thrawn, restart and hope for the best
[22:35] <Thrawn> now that should help? :)
[22:35] <Draukon> For Ubuntu of course.
[22:35] <evo4360bhp> does anyone know the best editor to merge .srt files to avi's ?
[22:35] <soreau> mengu: Sounds like a pulseaudio bug
[22:35] <cypha> thanks edbian
[22:35] <euphio> I get this when I first try to open my home folder: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
[22:35] <tucemiux_l> whoami
[22:35] <edbian> cypha: sure
[22:36] <euphio> it takes about 15 seconds to open the home folder
[22:36] <soreau> euphio: Perhaps a b0rked install. Does it happen in a live session?
[22:36] <tucemiux_l> say, who was helping me earlier ?
[22:36] <mouse> How do I increase the time it takes for firefox to accept input from the right click context menu?
[22:37] <soreau> mouse: Why would you want to do that?
[22:37] <euphio> soreau: The live cd worked fine I think.  It worked fine once installed for the first day, now its doing this. after it finally opens it has no issues and can open in no time, its just the first time
[22:37] <euphio> its xubuntu btw
[22:38] <Thrawn> blade: *sob* it still hangs at booting :/ ok i give up, will reinstall 11.04 ... thanks for the help!
[22:38] <SactBE> i'm using xubuntu with excelent results
[22:38] <Thrawn> agh
[22:38] <joel135> tucemiux_l: I was
[22:38] <blade> Thrawn, sorry
[22:38] <Thrawn> although i could purge the gnome3 ppa ... that might help
[22:38] <Thrawn> -avoiding reinstalling
[22:38] <blade> Thrawn, that is a thought....
[22:38] <mouse> soreau, Because if I'm not careful and right click something in firefox it will select the option where my pointer was at prematurely.
[22:39] <SactBE> ...but I fell the Intel 965 graphic driver is not set up addecuate
[22:39] <blade> Thrawn, if it was me i would try it... at this point what do you have to lose
[22:39] <tucemiux_l> joel135, ok well my desktop now has access to the net, i rebooted and eth0 reappeared, funny thing is now my server is unreachable o.O
[22:39] <CarlFK> is this usb1 or 2? 0000:00:04.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 USB (rev 01)
[22:39] <blade> mouse, you may want to just change the settings of your mouse...
[22:40] <mouse> blade, It only happens in firefox.
[22:40] <soreau> mouse: That sounds like a gtk bug to me
[22:40] <blade> mouse, ok ... point is that it would be easer to change the settings of the mouse
[22:41] <euphio> SactBE: xubuntu is awesome so far, its just this one little issue.  I can work around it, its really no big deal, I would just rather it pulled up the home folder right off the bat :)
[22:41] <joel135> tucemiux_l: could you explain how you've set it up? are you trying to reach it locally?
[22:41] <edbian> euphio: Add it to the startup processes
[22:42] <mouse> blade, Why change the mouse settings globally when it's only problematic for firefox?
[22:42] <blade> mouse, i see your point ....
[22:42] <euphio> edbian: sorry I misspoke, its not that I want it to run right when I open the computer, it's that I want it to not have the lag the first time I open it
[22:42] <edbian> euphio: oh :(  Got a ssd
[22:42] <Thrawn> well..i dont have ppa purge :P thanks again for your help!
[22:43] <tucemiux_l> joel135, yeah, i have my server and desktop connected to my router, first my desktop lost its connection , I fixed it then my router lost connection, first time I came in the room I went to my server and connected to freenode from there o.O
[22:43] <euphio> I'd love an ssd, alas, I'm stuck with this spinning thing
[22:44] <tucemiux_l> joel135, ok now my server is back up, very funny -- i think it's time to update tomato !
[22:44] <joel135> tucemiux_l: you could ping these from the server: 82.99.28.150, 209.85.149.104

[22:49] <Name141> Anyone know how to install Spotify?
[22:49] <Monotoko> Name141, are you wanting the Linux client...or the Windows client under WINE?
[22:50] <Monotoko> (Windows client is more stable imo)
[22:50] <Name141> Monotoko: What works best?
[22:50] <Name141> oh
[22:50] <Monotoko> Name141, if you want the Windows client...install wine (sudo apt-get install wine) then just run the setup exe under wine (wine ~/Downloads/setup.exe) for example
[22:51] <Name141> Monotoko: it's that simple, no fancy stuff?
[22:51] <Name141> Monotoko: as in, no issues under wine?
[22:51] <Monotoko> Name141, it's as simple as that :)
[22:51] <Name141> okie dokey.
[22:51] <Monotoko> Name141, it crashes sometimes...every couple of hours...but then you just need to exit it and reopen it
[22:52] <Tech-1> lol, kinda like windoze itself
[22:52] <Monotoko> Tech-1, especially Windows ME :P
[22:52] <Monotoko> I still have a computer with that on...god forbid
[22:53] <Tech-1> thats gotta hurt
[22:53] <Name141> Monotoko: now only if there was a way to hack up these ads , specially the ones that play 'rap'..
[22:53] <Monotoko> Name141, I just pay the £4.99 for unlimited XD
[22:53] <Name141> bahh
[22:54] <Name141> anywho, I guess we better get back on topic :p
[22:54] <blade> xbox 360 controller should work as plug and play on Ubuntu 10.10 but "lsusb" returns ... "Bus 007 Device 007: ID 162e:beef " for the controller
[22:54] <Monotoko> indeed :)
[22:55] <Psydoll> Monotoko: where you get the unlimited xd?
[22:55] <Monotoko> Psydoll, I'm in the UK...usually you just go on the site and it offers it
[22:55] <Monotoko> might be different in the USA
[22:56] <quaff> does anyone know what happened to jaunty @ http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ ?
[22:56] <Psydoll> Monotoko: do you have a linky ?
[22:56] <blade> xbox 360 controller should work as plug and play on Ubuntu 10.10 but "lsusb" returns ... "Bus 007 Device 007: ID 162e:beef " for the controller
[22:56] <Monotoko> Psydoll, http://www.spotify.com/uk/get-spotify/unlimited/

[22:57] <xangua> !eol | quaff
[22:57] <Name141> They have the $5 and $10 in the USA too.  $5 is just ad-free, 10 is 'take it with you'
[22:58] <Monotoko> Name141, $5?! DAMN...they charge us £5 D:
[22:58] <Name141> Monotoko: we'll be chinese in a week, so I don't know how the conversion will be then.
[22:58] <quaff> xangua, damn. i figured since hardy was still supported, jaunty would be too, gues the numbering doesn't mean anything?
[22:58] <quaff> xangua, thx tho
[22:59] <Psydoll> Monotoko: you pay that a month and you have access to thier millions of music?
[23:00] <Name141> just listen to some ads and it's free!
[23:00] <Monotoko> Psydoll, yeah :)
[23:00] <Monotoko> Spotify is amazing...the $10 version even allows you to save offline playlists on your phone
[23:00] <Psydoll> Name141: yeah ads as though i dont get enough
[23:00] <Psydoll> Monotoko: does it allow you to download?
[23:00] <xangua> !ot
[23:00] <Name141> no.
[23:01] <Monotoko> Psydoll, no it doesn't sadly...it's based on the streaming and rental methods
[23:01] <XHangfireX> can someone help me with an ubuntu install problem?
[23:01] <Monotoko> XHangfireX, sure what's the problem?
[23:02] <Cem_Nome5> I'm trying to make my Ubuntu 10.04 recognise the wireless dispositive. Everything about wireless is already configured, but my computer still can't recognise if there is a wireless connected... What I do?
[23:02] <XHangfireX> well i have a via epia-V mini-itx board that i cant get to boot. i put windows on it and tried wubi but it wont boot to ubuntu, it would just reboot immediately after choosing ubuntu on the boot menu. also it will not boot the install disk, it hangs on the first line
[23:03] <Monotoko> XHangfireX, have you tried installing it without WUBI?
[23:04] <XHangfireX> yes it will not boot the alternate i386 disk, ive also tried the mythbuntu cd and it hangs for some sorta graphics problem, which was why i tried the alternate disk
[23:05] <XHangfireX> i have never seen a system that wouldnt boot a linux disk before lol
[23:06] <edbian> XHangfireX: usually indicates hardware troubles
[23:06] <jetrost> if i'm running gnome, and i want to install kate (K Advanced Text Editor)(which i think uses kde?), will installing it along with its dependencies via synaptic make everything work well together?
[23:06] <Cem_Nome5> I'm trying to make my Ubuntu 10.04 recognise the wireless dispositive. Everything about wireless is already configured, but my computer still can't recognise if there is a wireless connected... What I do?
[23:07] <edbian> jetrost: yes
[23:07] <edbian> jetrost: It won't install all of KDE just a big chunk of KDE graphics stuff (like the KDE gui framework QT)
[23:07] <jetrost> edbian: thanks. that's good to know.
[23:07] <edbian> Cem_Nome5: what card do you have?
[23:07] <edbian> jetrost: sure
[23:07] <night> 有人能看懂中文吗
[23:07] <Cem_Nome5> edbian: I don't understand these things well..
[23:08] <leccy> jetrost, although  gedit will give you the same functionality and is native gnome
[23:08] <wildbat> !cn| night
[23:08] <XHangfireX> ok, thanks for the info guys, i guess my board wasn't such a deal after all
[23:08] <Cem_Nome5> edbian: I bought a DI-524 Wireless
[23:08] <night> wildbat, hi
[23:08] <XHangfireX> does anyone know of a decent mini-itx board that is well supported by mythbuntu or ubuntu?
[23:08] <edbian> Cem_Nome5: what is it listed as in the output of sudo lspci  ?
[23:08] <Cem_Nome5> The only problem is that my computer won't recognise the driver
[23:08] <lapaga> XHangfireX: it could just be a matter of putting something like
[23:08] <edbian> Cem_Nome5: what is it listed as in the output of sudo lspci | grep Wireless
[23:08] <Cem_Nome5> wait
[23:09] <Cem_Nome5> I just did that
[23:09] <lapaga> oops did not mean to hit enter:)
[23:09] <leccy> jetrost, and geany is good too
[23:09] <jetrost> leccy: i've been using gedit, but kate has some features that i desire (built-in terminal, etc.). can these be added to gedit?
[23:10] <edbian> jetrost: through plugins yes
[23:10] <bastidrazor> jetrost: you may want to look into scite.
[23:10] <edbian> jetrost: Or just use my editor mbc!  http://ednovak.net/projects
[23:10] <leccy> jetrost, yes there are loads of gedit plugins
[23:10] <edbian> jetrost: had to plug :P
[23:11]  * leccy waits for 'vim ftw'
[23:11] <edbian> leccy: vim fails
[23:11] <jetrost> ok too many options. :) where do i find plugins for gedit? can i look for them in synaptic?
[23:12] <edbian> jetrost: yep
[23:12] <leccy> i'd like to love vim, i really would... but why oh why can't in start in 'insert' mode instead of waiting for me to forget to hit 'I'
[23:12] <ErSandro> jetrost: try geany, it has an integrated terminal too and it's KDE free
[23:12] <edbian> leccy: Why does it even have modes?
[23:13] <jetrost> k i'll give it a gander ErSandro
[23:13] <leccy> edbian, so you can do 'dd' to delete lines and stuff.... i suppose
[23:13] <Chilaquiles> Does anyone know how can I make a Windows 7 USB flash bootable under Ubuntu?
[23:13] <chuck__> anyone know how to get a sixaxis controller to work with bluetooth?
[23:13] <edbian> leccy: hahah, yes.  How functional and intuitive :)
[23:14] <leccy> edbian, i know... and yet i find myself staring at a vim screen at least 5 times a day
[23:14] <edbian> leccy: :)
[23:16] <ACubed10> hello
[23:17] <ACubed10> how you guys doing
[23:20] <mediacentaur> could someone help me with installing a realtek r8169 driver. i've followed the included readme but i'm still getting errors and google isn't helping...
[23:21] <ErSandro> hi there ACubed10
[23:22] <edbian> ErSandro: he's gone
[23:22] <edbian> mediacentaur: What are the errors?
[23:22] <Chilaquiles> Does anyone know how can I make a Windows 7 USB flash bootable under Ubuntu?
[23:23] <mediacentaur> edbian, i've used sudo but it's still telling me it cannot remove r8169.ko: permission denied (for one)
[23:23] <edbian> mediacentaur: Remove r8169.ko from where?
[23:24] <mediacentaur> /lib/modules/2.6.38.10-generic/kernel/drivers/net/r8169.ko
[23:24] <edbian> mediacentaur: Perhaps I can help you get wifi working by a different method?
[23:24] <xangua> Chilaquiles: nothing to do with ubuntu, try ##windows
[23:24] <edbian> mediacentaur: I don't think compiling the driver is going to fix the problem.  Thoughts?
[23:24] <mediacentaur> edbian, it's ethernet, but i'm up for whatever works.
[23:25] <edbian> mediacentaur: ethernet huh.  That's not good.  Can you run sudo lspci -k   for me?
[23:25] <edbian> mediacentaur: What driver is your card using?  What modules are available?
[23:25] <Chilaquiles> xangua: what do you mean nothing to do with ubuntu? I thought you could create bootable flash drives
[23:25] <mediacentaur> edbian, i don't have the card installed at the moment. i figured maybe it was locking up the driver
[23:25] <arios> hi
[23:26] <edbian> mediacentaur: When the card is installed does the system not boot?
[23:26] <xangua> Chilaquiles: you can create bootable linux usb if that is what y you ask
[23:27] <XHangfireX> i just reset my bios and now my ubuntu cd hangs at "Loading bootlogo..." thats as far as ive gotten lol
[23:27] <mediacentaur> edbian, it boots. it is recognized as a "linksys gigabit ethernet adapter" which is correct but it doesn't work. i believe it got an ip from the router, but it's not actually passing anything through
[23:27] <edbian> mediacentaur: It got an IP?  Can it ping?
[23:27] <nit-wit> Chilaquiles, for a bootable usb of windows 7 format the thumb to a ntfs with a bootflag and extract the iso to it.
[23:27] <mediacentaur> edbian, was not able to ping.
[23:27] <edbian> mediacentaur: Does this card work with any other OS?
[23:28] <edbian> mediacentaur: Put it had an IP via DHCP?
[23:28] <mediacentaur> edbian, worked on windows but i ditched windows.
[23:28] <edbian> mediacentaur: ok
[23:28] <Chilaquiles> nit-wit: I just have the CD, I don't have the ISO file
[23:29] <nit-wit> Chilaquiles, then extract the disc, rip it if needed
[23:29] <Chilaquiles> nit-wit: what tool do you use to do that?
[23:29] <nit-wit> Chilaquiles, if it is a a cd it is not a install disc
[23:29] <mediacentaur> edbian, i'm pretty sure it was listed as a client in the router config. i could be wrong. i've been messing with it so much that it feels like what i've tried is blurring together.
[23:29] <mediacentaur> edbian, i'm on natty, if that helps.
[23:30] <Chilaquiles> nit-wit: what tool do you use to do that?
[23:30] <nit-wit> Chilaquiles, a W7 install on a dvd is 2.3 gigs
[23:30] <edbian> mediacentaur: put the card in, boot the computer, run sudo lspci -k, tell me what driver is being used and what modules are available
[23:30] <Hamradio2008> can some one tell me if Ubuntu utilizes the 8GB of ddr2 I have on my MB or is it limited in some way?
[23:30] <Chilaquiles> nit-wit: what tool do you use to do that?
[23:30] <p014k> Hello. I have 11.04 and i use several kde apps. I recently did a clean install because my audio in kde apps wasn't working (rather it had a metallic noise and it said my audio card wasn't recognized). This happened after I uninstalled pulseaudio. I use alsa mostly and with other apps and pulseaudio messes with it. I want to safely uninstall it and still have my kde apps work. My previous attempts at uninstallation have failed.
[23:30] <Chilaquiles> nit-wit: what software do you use to do that?
[23:31] <Hamradio2008> can some one tell me if Ubuntu utilizes the 8GB of ddr2 I have on my MB or is it limited in some way?
[23:31] <edbian> Hamradio2008: free -m
[23:31] <xangua> Hamradio2008: if you use 64bit it does
[23:31] <Polah> Hamradio2008: If you have a PAE-enabled kernel or a 64-bit Ubuntu then yes.
[23:31] <dajxd> nit-wit: unetbootin worked wonderfully!
[23:31] <edbian> Hamradio2008: free -g   might be better
[23:31] <mediacentaur> edbian, give me just a sec. i'll enter the room under my actual irc alias... i just used a quick join on the ubuntu machine using the on-board nic...
[23:31] <nit-wit> Chilaquiles, are you going to answer my query?
[23:31] <nit-wit> dajxd, never worked for me
[23:31] <Hamradio2008> i am using 64bit ver11
[23:31] <Chilaquiles> nit-wit: just tell me what software do I use to make a ISo of a DVD!
[23:31] <Stoken> hey
[23:31] <edbian> mediacentaur: ok
[23:31] <nit-wit> Chilaquiles, no
[23:31] <edbian> Hamradio2008: free -g
[23:32] <Hamradio2008> what that mean?
[23:32] <nit-wit> Chilaquiles, figure it out man
[23:32] <Stoken> iǘen question but i known that is here the wrong form for, but i hope someone has an tipp.
[23:32] <Quantum_Ion> Chilaquiles, Try brasero
[23:32] <edbian> Hamradio2008: It's a command.  Run it in the terminal
[23:32] <felipe_Brz> What group should I add a user to, if I want him/her to have maximum power ( like root user)
[23:32] <Chilaquiles> thanks Quantum_Ion
[23:32] <dajxd> is it possible to install windows from within ubuntu? I can figure it out once i know yes or no.
[23:32] <Hamradio2008> what will it do?
[23:32] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: this is "mediacentaur"... give me a few.
[23:32] <Stoken> Its question about webOS, i want run preware, but i nowhere find how i came in dev-mod
[23:32] <Quantum_Ion> Chilaquiles, Go to Synaptic Package Manager and type brasero
[23:32] <Polah> felip_Brz: put his username into the sudoers file
[23:32] <chaddy> felipe_Brz: admin
[23:32] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: hi
[23:33] <Stoken> .
[23:33] <felipe_Brz> chaddy:  thanks
[23:33] <edbian> dajxd: Not tha ti know of.  Maybe with a virtual machine
[23:33] <edbian> Hamradio2008: SHow you how much ram you have / is being used
[23:33] <nit-wit> Chilaquiles, I stopped answering as it seems your copy is probably a pirate copy, otherwise you would answer.
[23:33] <dajxd> edbian: thanks, the bootable usb fight starts again :)
[23:34] <edbian> dajxd: The bootable usb fight?
[23:34] <Stoken> someone known a WebOS Irc channel on freenodenetwork?
[23:34] <Stoken> please, that would be big help!°
[23:34] <Hamradio2008> this is what it says
[23:34] <dajxd> edbian: the only way then, having no cd drive.

[23:34] <andornaut> I renamed a dir in Banshee then rescanned my library. It found the songs at the new location, but it kept the old entries (which obviously don't work since their path is wrong). Any ideas how to fix this?
[23:34] <XHangfireX> what does the noapic boot option do?
[23:35] <edbian> dajxd: I think windows 7 can run from a USB drive.  ask about how to make one in #windows.  That's not really windows inside Ubuntu though
[23:35] <edbian> Hamradio2008: YOu have 7Gb of ram
[23:35] <Hamradio2008> no I have 8
[23:35] <Stoken> with signs "#" and "*"
[23:35] <edbian> andornaut: Manually delete them
[23:35] <edbian> andornaut: Or, delete your entire library and re-scan
[23:35] <edbian> Hamradio2008: The kernel only found / is using 7
[23:35] <Polah> Hamradio2008: Do free -m and pastebin the output of that. I noticed that when I do free -g it shows 1GB but I know I have 2GB and free -m shows the proper amount in megabytes
[23:36] <Hamradio2008> i'll try it
[23:36] <milica> I am having issues with my touchpad - if I click it in a certain way the click gets locked (and the button is pressed, as if I was holding it)... is there a way to disable this keypress lock?
[23:36] <edbian> Polah: Perhaps a conversion error
[23:36] <andornaut> edbian: Yeah, I'll do the latter. Google hasn't brought up any better options
[23:36] <edbian> andornaut: sure
[23:36] <pirlo89> Hi, is there a way to make the google gadget sidebar to be NOT on top all the time ? because once it's clicked on, it becomes on top.
[23:36] <Polah> edbian: Shows 1 for when it should show two and shows 7 for hamradio when it should apparently show 8. Perhaps a strange bug in the program itself

[23:37] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: ok, is the card plugged in?
[23:37] <Stoken> bye have a nice day/night everybody!
[23:37] <Hamradio2008> I am a very happy person to know that the 8GB is going to use not wasted
[23:38] <edbian> Hamradio2008: sure :)
[23:38] <Polah> Hamradio2008, looks in order. It's picking up 8GB fine. Keep in mind for multi-line things that you should pastebin them and link us rather than post them in the actual channel.
[23:38] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: yes sir(?)
[23:38] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: ip addr
[23:38] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: Can you put that in paste.ubuntu.com for me?
[23:38] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: the ip?
[23:38] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: That's what I'm looking for :)
[23:39] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: and that it's recognized as a device and all
[23:39] <Hamradio2008> I am having allot of trouble with this MB ASROCK P43DE the machine will not stay online it freezes I not have this trouble with other MB ,,, any ideas???
[23:39] <ghostnik11> if you run an fdisk command and get boot: /dev/sda1 - what does that mean in terms of the location with hd?
[23:40] <edbian> ghostnik11: location?
[23:40] <ghostnik11> edbian: yeah you know like hd (0,1)
[23:40] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: the whole ifconfig?
[23:40] <Hamradio2008> THe processor is a wolfdale e8500
[23:40] <edbian> ghostnik11: /dev/sda1 means harddrive a partition 1
[23:40] <Hamradio2008> Any way thanks for the memory info
[23:40] <edbian> ghostnik11: in grub it would be hd(0,0) I think
[23:41] <Hickeroar> Running Natty on a macbook pro 7,1. The option to disable the touchpad while typing is enabled, but it's apparently not working. I'm constantly hitting it with my thumb(s) while typing and clicking all over the place.
[23:41] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: in a pastebin please :)

[23:41] <edbian> ghostnik11: sure
[23:41] <Hickeroar> typing*
[23:42] <Hickeroar> any ideas?
[23:42] <Tobarja> How do I tell when a package has been updated? (I don't have it installed, it borked on me during install last time)
[23:43] <Hickeroar> Tobarja: "dpkg -l"
[23:43] <Hickeroar> find it in the list
[23:43] <Hickeroar> maybe
[23:43] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: http://paste.ubuntu.com/654061/
[23:43] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: the two cards are getting the correct static IPs from the router.
[23:43] <Hickeroar> i think i misread your question
[23:43] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: The router is not giving them an IP if it's static
[23:43] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: although i'm not sure why the on-board is eth0 and eth1
[23:43] <bastidrazor> Tobarja: apt-cache policy packagename
[23:43] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: that is strange...
[23:44] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: So the target card is eth2
[23:44] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: it gave an ip before i set the mac addresses up as static ips
[23:44]  * Tobarja crosses fingers and tries again...
[23:44] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: so it's static dhcp
[23:44] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: ping 192.168.1.1  (is that the router?)
[23:44] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: i just decided an hour ago to add them to the table.
[23:44] <Tobarja> nope... still borked
[23:44] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: ok
[23:45] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: but the router otherwise uses dhcp (for those mac addresses that i don't set to static which would be guests)
[23:45] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: yes.
[23:45] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: yes what?
[23:46] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: eth2 is target card, yes.
[23:46] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: ping 192.168.1.1 ??
[23:47] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: also, i just unplugged the cable from eth0/eth1 and it's working now... this is strange and has been my luck with ubuntu thus far... this happened when i was editing fstab for NAS drives, too... wtf!
[23:47] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: How did you identify the card as working / not working?
[23:48] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: with the r8169, it wouldn't access or mount NAS drives. no firefox connectivity, no transmissionbt
[23:48] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: If they're both connected how can you tell which card the data was using?>
[23:48] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: i did ping the router before i jumped on here and it didn't work.
[23:48] <Tobarja> any ideas how to fix dpkg pre-installation script issues? http://paste.ubuntu.com/654063/
[23:49] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: i unplugged the on-board
[23:49] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: But just now unplugging the on-board 'made it work' ?
[23:49] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: The OS can only be connected to the network one time unless you configure things very specially.
[23:49] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: i had them both plugged in for the lspci -k and ifconfig
[23:49] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: Yes I saw that.
[23:50] <antihero> How do I blacklist modules?
[23:50] <edbian> antihero: put there name in /etc/blacklist.conf
[23:50] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: but i've disconnected eth0/eth1 and eth2 which is the gigabit is working.
[23:51] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: i'm dumbfounded. it seems that the billionth time i try something or ask for support, it seems to just work itself out...
[23:51] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: You can only have 1 connection to the network at once. (even if you had two, how would you know which device was going used?)
[23:51] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: haha
[23:51] <bastidrazor> !blacklist | antihero
[23:51] <edbian> antihero: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf  :P
[23:51] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: i fought fstab for a few days before it gave up and "decided to work"
[23:51] <bastidrazor> edbian: debian is a bit different :)
[23:51] <edbian> bastidrazor: :P
[23:51] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: and the worst part is that i did nothing different each time...
[23:52] <antihero> cheers
[23:52] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: I don't understand what is confusing.  Plug in only one interface at a time unless you wanna configure something special.
[23:53] <antihero> :q
[23:53] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: i previously only had one plugged in. either on-board or the troublesome r8169. i only had them both plugged in so i could pastebin the terminal's output
[23:53] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: aaahhh.  I see the confusion now.
[23:54] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: Well if we can't replicate the problem I can't fix it :)
[23:54] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: story of my life! ;)
[23:54] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: ha, you sound like my mother at the car repair shop
[23:54] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: lol.
[23:54] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: :)  fixed now!  yay \o/
[23:55] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: even debugging an app that i help develop, it's like this... magic fixes out of no where...
[23:55] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: the real test will be a restart ;)
[23:55] <antihero> WTF it's still loading nouveau even though it's in the blacklist
[23:55] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: yes!
[23:55] <felipe_Brz> What's the difference between the admin and the sudo groups?
[23:56] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: now, would there be a good reason why ubuntu doesn't want to shut down? it's stuck longer than normal on the progress screen.
[23:56] <edbian> antihero: I have noticed that too!  I've tried to help many people get that driver out!
[23:56] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: ha IDK! :D
[23:56] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: BECAUSE THERE IS NO ANSWER!!!!11
[23:57] <antihero> So now I can't boot X because of effing nouveau
[23:57] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: hahaha
[23:57] <alchemyxthunder> edbian++
[23:57] <antihero> Though my terminall is inice and high res
[23:57] <edbian> antihero: sudo modprobe -r nouveau

[23:57] <ghostnik11> question wanted to know in grub file if this is where my kernel is located: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.38-10-generic root=UUID=ff980c21-18d1-4c7a-80e8-14637c1fe498 ro   quiet splash vt.handoff=7
[23:57] <ghostnik11> 	initrd	/boot/initrd.img-2.6.38-10-generic
[23:57] <edbian> antihero: You did blacklist nouveau in blacklist.conf ?
[23:57] <Aivaras> Hello, may anyone knows how to type custom text then you start terminal? etc. "Hello, $USER, Welcome to $HOSTNAME"?

[23:58] <alchemyxthunder> edbian: one more question... do you happen to remember the terminal command off-hand to make sure it's running gigabit speed rather than 100mbit?
[23:58] <edbian> alchemyxthunder: no idea
