| aaas | Frekk: yeah if its from debian theres less of a chance it would work | 00:00 |
|---|
| ke1ha | stuffed-crust: Binary examples, Image Files, Vid Files, .doc .xls .pdf etc etc are binary type files. | 00:00 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: but you said you compiled from source? | 00:00 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: IIRC the compiled from source-try did not do anything (it just failed) | 00:00 |
|---|
| ASKidwai | does anybody know how to remove password from rar? | 00:00 |
|---|
| ke1ha | TYDIRocks: You can't if Ubuntu isn't picking yup your GPU card without the restricted Drivers installed. | 00:00 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: so you downloaded | 00:00 |
|---|
| TYDIRocks | oh ok | 00:00 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: tar xfvz on the file | 00:01 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: the .deb showed up when i ran the lsmod, but the same as the source apart from that | 00:01 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: the instructions say sudo on each of the commands make, etc | 00:01 |
|---|
| bazhang | ASKidwai, crack password? no | 00:01 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: correct. | 00:01 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: I would purge that deb | 00:01 |
|---|
| ke1ha | TYDIRocks: Look in System >> Prefrences or Administracfiont (can't rememebr which ) and look for rhardware drivers / restricted drivers. | 00:01 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: do sudo dpkg -e and the name of the file | 00:01 |
|---|
| bazhang | ke1ha, admin---> additional drivers | 00:01 |
|---|
| aaas | frekk: or at least the start of the name rt2860_soruce | 00:02 |
|---|
| TYDIRocks | "Additional drivers?" | 00:02 |
|---|
| ke1ha | TYDIRocks: System >> Admin >> Additoinal Drivers ...., tnx bazhang | 00:02 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: ehm, I follow your directions to fast.. It's already purged | 00:02 |
|---|
| Frekk | :P | 00:02 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: cool | 00:02 |
|---|
| ke1ha | or Restricted Drivers | 00:02 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: compiles is going fine on my system at the moment.. I would follow those instructions you gave me again, and dont mess with the deb | 00:03 |
|---|
| TYDIRocks | No proprietary drivers are in use | 00:03 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: did you edit the config.mk file? | 00:03 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: yes, i did (the wpa-changes) | 00:03 |
|---|
| Tyrant | I keep trying to install drivers for my AE1000 linksys wireless USB and whenever I plug it in, every command I try to run freezes | 00:03 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: I folloed the directions exactly as in the ubuntuforum-thread | 00:04 |
|---|
| ke1ha | TYDIRocks: Does it list any drivers that are avaiable? | 00:04 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: do 'make clean' in that directory | 00:04 |
|---|
| w30 | bazhang, and you have to enable restricted in your repos | 00:04 |
|---|
| TYDIRocks | No, the list is empty | 00:04 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: does it give you a permission error? | 00:04 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: no sudo | 00:04 |
|---|
| bazhang | w30, not me tab miscomplete perhaps | 00:04 |
|---|
| Tyrant | WHenever I plug it in and run iwconfig or ifconfig both freeze until I unplug the wireless usb | 00:04 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: yes, I recall it did | 00:04 |
|---|
| ke1ha | TYDIRocks: Ok, well that's about all I can suggest I'm affraid, as Im not an ATI Guru ... | 00:04 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: I thought I was suppose to run it with sudo | 00:04 |
|---|
| w30 | bazhang, opps, sorry | 00:05 |
|---|
| ke1ha | Frekk: when ya install is whan you gotta use sudo | 00:05 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: only the install part | 00:05 |
|---|
| TYDIRocks | Alright thanks anyways | 00:05 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: the instructions are a bit to agressive | 00:05 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: try jsut 'make install' in that directory | 00:05 |
|---|
| Llynix | I have a ubuntu machine that keeps mounting read only. running fsck recovers the journal and shows an orphaned inode but it continuously corrupts again and again. More info here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11146069 | 00:05 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: does it give you a permissions error if you do | 00:05 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: im just curious | 00:05 |
|---|
| ke1ha | just do make clean && make && sudo make install | 00:06 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: after that do 'sudo make clean' | 00:06 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk sorry i meant 'make clean' | 00:06 |
|---|
| aaas | these all should be make clean | 00:06 |
|---|
| w30 | | 00:06 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk sorry | 00:06 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Llynix, monitor dmesg output. it could be a failing hard drive. | 00:07 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: so 'make clean' , ( does it have a permisisons error), then 'sudo make clean' | 00:07 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: then 'more ./os/linux/config.mk | grep SUPPLICANT | 00:07 |
|---|
| ke1ha | bazhang: yuo know anythign about ATI graphic in a Virtualbox Ubuntu Guest install | 00:07 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Llynix, i would guess it is a hd that is failing.. they seem the weakest link these days. | 00:07 |
|---|
| Llynix | dr_willis: what would a line look like? I can't see anything in there pertaining to the hard drive | 00:08 |
|---|
| dr_willis | ke1ha, in a vbox setup the guest os sees the vbox video card. not an ati card. | 00:08 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: ok, I started over again. The archive is extracted, now i enter it and 'make install' then 'make clean' and tell you if I got an permission error. Have I got it right? | 00:08 |
|---|
| bazhang | ke1ha, there is none | 00:08 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Llynix, io error, 'remounting read only' or somthing similer. | 00:08 |
|---|
| Llynix | dr_willis: I also tried western digital's drive tools and it checked fine. brand new hard drive.. was actually a replacement for a shoddy one. | 00:08 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: you extracted the file again | 00:08 |
|---|
| aaas | ? | 00:08 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Llynix, if you can get an idea where the bad part of the HD is at.. you could repartition and put the bad part in its own parittion then not use it. | 00:08 |
|---|
| ke1ha | dr_willis: bazhang Ahh Ok, TNX | 00:09 |
|---|
| Llynix | dr_willis: any idea how I would confirm it was bad? | 00:09 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: if so then do your edits | 00:09 |
|---|
| flecha | I am developing an App Indicator for Unity. How do I make it binded to a hotkey? | 00:09 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Llynix, that is weird. but not unheard of.. mostof these HD makers have tools (windows only) to do very through tests on the hds. | 00:09 |
|---|
| === Lmull3-MBP17 is now known as Lmull3 |
| aaas | Frekk: on config.mk and cmm_wpa.c | 00:09 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: ok, the wpa-ones. got it | 00:09 |
|---|
| Frekk | sure | 00:09 |
|---|
| Llynix | dr_willis: western digital seemed to offer a bootable CD that went to Dos and ran a custom program.. all tests were fine | 00:09 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Llynix, ive gone through more hd;'s then i have any other pc part in the last few years. | 00:09 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: remember there are 3 edits total | 00:10 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: two of the WPA and one of the CIPHER_NOTUSE | 00:10 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Llynix, but how through were the tests? ive seen some testes that take several hours to run.. and some that take just a few sec. | 00:10 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: roger, doing them now | 00:10 |
|---|
| dr_willis | :) | 00:10 |
|---|
| ke1ha | Yeah, go to gate, open gate, go through gate, close gate, run run run :-) | 00:10 |
|---|
| Llynix | dr_willis: one took 15 mins one took around 2-3 hours | 00:10 |
|---|
| Llynix | dr_willis: if you can suggest anything else.. I have a full backup of the home directory and have already rebuilt the software once... can try again.. | 00:11 |
|---|
| ke1ha | Llynix: is this the ext4 err problem? | 00:12 |
|---|
| arnette | hi | 00:12 |
|---|
| ke1ha | Hi | 00:12 |
|---|
| Llynix | ke1ha: yes | 00:12 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Llynix, i had a seagate tool/test of a 1tb hd.. took like a week. :) | 00:12 |
|---|
| arnette | i have a watch can i install ubuntu on it so it boots | 00:12 |
|---|
| Llynix | dr_willis: this is only 80 gigs | 00:12 |
|---|
| ke1ha | Llynix: I've been googling on that one, not found any real solutions. | 00:12 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Llynix, but then the hd started working right.. after the test beat it in to submission i guess.. | 00:12 |
|---|
| arnette | it is a usb watch | 00:12 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Llynix, 80gb? how old is that thing? | 00:12 |
|---|
| Llynix | dr_willis: I bought the smallest new brand name drive I could find | 00:13 |
|---|
| NbIrc | Where in IRC is Thunderbird setup advice? Tried & failed to get on irc.mozilla.org | 00:13 |
|---|
| afeder | The Ubuntu icon for quick access to the dash no longer appears in the bar in the top of my screen. What might have caused this? | 00:13 |
|---|
| dr_willis | seems like a waste of $$ really. :) given the cost/gb. never even knew you could get new drives that small. | 00:13 |
|---|
| ke1ha | Llynix: I know I wanted some 40GB drives nto to long ago, no dise all 100GB + | 00:13 |
|---|
| Llynix | dr_willis: it was an incredible waste of money.. but I wanted to get the kiddos computer fixed quickly | 00:13 |
|---|
| dr_willis | afeder, ive seen that button vanish but still work... | 00:14 |
|---|
| dr_willis | afeder, like it was invisible.. or is it not working. | 00:14 |
|---|
| afeder | dr_willis: in my case it is not present at all | 00:14 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: on question regarding the instructions.. | 00:14 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: Use the find command to locate MIX_CIPHER_NOTUSE. Replace the entire line (keep on one line) with this code: […] <-- shall I also replace the 'WPA_MIX_PAIR_CIPHER' which is on the same line? | 00:14 |
|---|
| ASKidwai | zahbang: thanks anyways | 00:15 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: step 4 | 00:15 |
|---|
| Llynix | I think I found the dmesg line.. but this was all there was: [ 10.759179] EXT4-fs (sda1): re-mounted. Opts: errors=remount-ro | 00:15 |

| g0th | hi | 00:15 |
|---|
| g0th | can someone in here explain me how phonon and pulse audio works? | 00:16 |
|---|
| g0th | suddenly all my hardware devices are gone and I cannot get them back? | 00:16 |
|---|
| edbian | g0th: Like, they were stolen? | 00:16 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Llynix, thats a normal line i belive.. when you find the HD gettting remounted read only, check dmesg again and there should be some error messages going on. | 00:16 |
|---|
| g0th | kind of ^^ | 00:16 |
|---|
| g0th | I switched the settings to digital | 00:16 |
|---|
| g0th | then I realized that my audio was not working anymore | 00:17 |
|---|
| g0th | so I opened it again and switched back | 00:17 |
|---|
| g0th | but there was no more "hardware" device | 00:17 |
|---|
| g0th | just a dummy device | 00:17 |
|---|
| g0th | then I went to phonon system settings | 00:17 |
|---|
| fbsd | hi | 00:17 |
|---|
| g0th | and reset everything | 00:17 |
|---|
| fbsd | dwm doesn't work with me in ubuntu | 00:17 |
|---|
| g0th | now there is not even an "internal audio" or "audio adapter" listed | 00:17 |
|---|
| g0th | just "independant device" | 00:18 |
|---|
| ke1ha | what is dwm ? | 00:18 |
|---|
| g0th | I have no idea what those two mean anyway | 00:18 |
|---|
| g0th | the whole audio thing in kde/phonon/pulse is not understandable at all | 00:18 |
|---|
| afeder | The Ubuntu icon for quick access to the dash is no longer present in the top-left corner of my screen. How can I get it back? | 00:18 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: yeah basically they're just saying replace the 'mix_cipher_notuse" with "wpa_tkipaes_wpa2_tkipaes" | 00:18 |
|---|
| bazhang | g0th, #kubuntu is already helping you, please do NOT crosspost here | 00:18 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: just do that | 00:18 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: ok :) | 00:19 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: my spelling may be wrong | 00:19 |
|---|
| fbsd | ke1ha, dinamic window manager | 00:19 |
|---|
| fbsd | dynamic | 00:19 |
|---|
| ke1ha | LOL sri, Yes, I figured that out as soon as I hit enter fbsd | 00:19 |
|---|
| dr_willis | afeder, theres always the use as last resort commands 'unity --replace' and 'unity --reset' and 'unity --reset-icons' | 00:20 |
|---|
| afeder | dr_willis: i will try that, thanks | 00:20 |
|---|
| g0th | bazhang: I switched to here because nobody was helping me there, but ok I try again | 00:20 |
|---|
| Llynix | disco! | 00:21 |
|---|
| fbsd | why dwm doesn't work in ubuntu? | 00:21 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: done, just copy-pasted from the tut. I have now made the changes to config.mk and cmm_wpa.c - that's two files, I think you mentioned three files? | 00:21 |
|---|
| Llynix | dmesg seems devoid of any messages.. | 00:21 |
|---|
| dr_willis | fbsd, could be you have to configure it. | 00:21 |
|---|
| szal | fbsd: define 'doesn't work' | 00:21 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: what's the third? | 00:21 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: three changes, but two files | 00:21 |
|---|
| Frekk | ah! | 00:21 |
|---|
| fbsd | szal, doesn't start ... | 00:21 |
|---|
| aaas | frekk: now go back to the parent 2010 dir | 00:21 |
|---|
| * Frekk is proceeding | 00:22 |
| ke1ha | :-) | 00:22 |
|---|
| fbsd | dr_willis, but i give no error | 00:22 |
|---|
| aaas | frekk: and just type 'make' (no sudo) | 00:22 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: ok | 00:22 |
|---|
| Llynix | dr_willis: ke1ha did I miss anything? I disconnected after I said it was read only now | 00:22 |
|---|
| ke1ha | Llynix: maybe from dr_willis bu nto me, I've not found a root cause for this one yet. | 00:23 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Llynix, normally i see some info/messages about mine gettting a read/write error and remounting read only.. and a block # or some other info in dmesg output. | 00:23 |
|---|
| dr_willis | fbsd, when in doubt. start it from .xinitrc via startx after disabling GDM and look for error messages. | 00:23 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: same error? | 00:23 |
|---|
| dr_willis | fbsd, could be the maintainder dident set up a dwm.desktop for gdm to use thats correct. | 00:24 |
|---|
| Wipster | test | 00:24 |
|---|
| ke1ha | test sat | 00:24 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Test Phailed? | 00:24 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: not sure yet. Also, I don't think the error came before 'sudo make install' last time | 00:24 |
|---|
| ke1ha | :-) | 00:24 |
|---|
| arnette | :| | 00:25 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: my eee just need a minute to think this through, and I will post the output til pastebin | 00:25 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: it shouldnt happen during the install part, that is just copying files | 00:25 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: sure | 00:25 |
|---|
| === mweber is now known as damax |
| Frekk | yeah, I might be wrong. (never leave that out of the picture, please, then we're doomed) | 00:26 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: ha | 00:26 |
|---|
| Frekk | ;) | 00:26 |

|---|
| fbsd | dr_willis, http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=ky0PGC9s | 00:26 |
|---|
| JusticeZero | My 10.04 netbook is getting unstable, and now I can't use the mouse in DOSbox. | 00:27 |
|---|
| dr_willis | fbsd, so? means very little to me.. all its doing is running 'dwm' You could make your own that runs 'xterm & then exec dwm' and perhaps get some error messages | 00:27 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: http://pastebin.com/1VdGKJXq | 00:27 |
|---|
| JusticeZero | I would really like my dosbox mouse support back, as I have no internet at home and thus have really nothing to do besides playing the games on it... | 00:28 |
|---|
| dr_willis | fbsd, or make one that just does a 'exec xterm' then run dwm in it and look for error messages | 00:28 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: looks better | 00:28 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: well assuming the error wasn't on the install part | 00:29 |
|---|
| dr_willis | JusticeZero, clarify to the channel what 'getting unstable' means... | 00:29 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: ok do 'sudo make install' | 00:29 |
|---|
| * Wipster hmm | 00:29 |
| ke1ha | aaas: Frekk agree, +1 on looks more normal. | 00:29 |
|---|
| * Wipster . | 00:29 |
| JusticeZero | I have a large number of updates that it simply refuses to install. They fail every time. (Not that I can update much right now..) | 00:29 |
|---|
| Frekk | ke1ha: good. I'm excited about the make install now | 00:29 |
|---|
| ke1ha | Frekk: Get excited when you have WiFI :-) | 00:30 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | what can i use besides adobe flash for firefox / operea | 00:30 |
|---|
| ke1ha | JusticeZero: by fail, what do you mean, what is the actualy error message recieved and how are you doing the updates? | 00:31 |
|---|
| aaas | crackerjackz: to play? nothing? | 00:31 |
|---|
| ke1ha | crackerjackz: Chrome or Chromium | 00:31 |
|---|
| edbian | aaas: crackerjackz There are a couple open source flash players. | 00:31 |
|---|
| bazhang | crackerjackz, nothing replaces flash at this point in time, unless you refer to html5 of youtube | 00:31 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | aaas, so for websites that use flash | 00:31 |
|---|
| edbian | crackerjackz: They do not compare to flash really | 00:31 |
|---|
| JusticeZero | Ubuntu update manager, or sudo apt-get. "failed to retrieve blah/blah/blah.blah from server" | 00:32 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: this looks ok, doesn't it? http://pastebin.com/VmWGPZ3H | 00:32 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | i wish flash would just die i hate flash | 00:32 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: yep | 00:32 |
|---|
| edbian | crackerjackz: gnash is one | 00:32 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | or at the very least i wish adobe would give us *nix users better support | 00:32 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: :D | 00:32 |
|---|
| edbian | crackerjackz: we all wish that | 00:32 |
|---|
| tabakhase | 10.04 also dosnt boot... | 00:32 |
|---|
| ke1ha | JusticeZero: ok, it's those error mesages the folks here are going to need to try and diagnose what the issue is. | 00:32 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | edbian, i have gnash but it says im missing plugins when i go to http://stickam.com | 00:32 |
|---|
| bazhang | crackerjackz, talk to them, its not an ubuntu issue | 00:32 |
|---|
| aaas | Frekk: ok, reboot and do an 'lsmod | grep rt' | 00:32 |
|---|
| edbian | crackerjackz: yeah gnash is often not recognized / doesn't work correctly. | 00:32 |
|---|
| bazhang | crackerjackz, get rid of gnash | 00:32 |
|---|
| aaas | frekk: and a 'ifconfig -a | 00:33 |
|---|
| edbian | crackerjackz: As I said before, it is nothing compared to flash | 00:33 |
|---|
| aaas | frekk: we'll check first before going further | 00:33 |
|---|
| crackerjackz | is there anything other than gnash? | 00:33 |
|---|
| edbian | bazhang: why? it' snot dangerous or anything | 00:33 |
|---|
| skegeek | Anyone experienced with VHCS or SysCP/WebCP administrating web server using external DNS and Mail services? | 00:33 |
|---|
| Frekk | aaas: ok! (shit, why didn't I start this irssi session in screen???) | 00:33 |
|---|
| bazhang | crackerjackz, dont use gnash with flash or the swf player | 00:33 |
|---|
| edbian | crackerjackz: I think there is one other. I can't remember now. It's the same as or worse than gnash though | 00:33 |
|---|
| Frekk | ok, brb | 00:33 |
|---|
| bazhang | Frekk, no cursing please | 00:33 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Frekk, znc is a handy tool to use with irssi, or other irc clients also.. | 00:33 |
|---|
| ke1ha | crackerjackz: Libre | 00:34 |
|---|
| Frekk | bazhang:oh, I'M SO SURRY | 00:34 |
|---|
| bazhang | edbian, not dangerous, just basically worthless | 00:34 |

|---|
| Frekk | anyway, brb | 00:34 |
|---|
| edbian | bazhang: ha, yes agreed | 00:34 |
|---|
| edbian | crackerjackz: html5 will take over | 00:34 |
|---|
| bazhang | edbian, seems to interfere with flash | 00:34 |
|---|
| JusticeZero | Unfortunately I do not have the errors; I have to do an update to do that; I am at a mcdeonalds with half a battery right now and the recommended update is quite large. | 00:34 |
|---|
| edbian | bazhang: :) | 00:34 |
|---|
| ke1ha | that's why I said chrome / chromium | 00:35 |
|---|
| ke1ha | html5 is much better | 00:35 |

Does anyone have any ideas? | 00:56 |
|---|
| urlin2u | tabakhase, nomodeset is a option at the gui at the boot of a install media if you get it by tapping the shift key when starting up. Hit f6 if you get the try ubuntu screen ckick nomodeset and boot in. Then if the drivers don't install with the install you will use nomodeset in the grub boot with e for edit . | 00:57 |

| fbsd | somebody use dwm in ubuntu? | 00:57 |

| tabakhase | urlin2u im booted. nomodeset worked that far.... normal that im now getting the "old gnome"? | 01:26 |

| ke1ha | real rage quit's only happened in the 1.x.x Kernel days :-) | 01:26 |
|---|
| JakeR003 | if i have a portable application which need to be run from terminal. how do i make a shortcut for it to the desktop? | 01:27 |
|---|
| JakeR003 | so 1 click will start it | 01:27 |
|---|
| urlin2u | tabakhase, the classic desktop, that is okay, unity needs the drives to get to 2d at the least. | 01:27 |
|---|
| bazhang | JakeR003, what application | 01:27 |
|---|
| JakeR003 | any | 01:27 |
|---|
| Akuma_s | ok urlin2u | 01:27 |
|---|
| JakeR003 | let's say portable browser | 01:27 |
|---|
| urlin2u | tabakhase, if you get installed you may need the nomodeset inserted in the kernel line at the grub menu to get in the install to get the drivers. | 01:28 |
|---|
| urlin2u | ke1ha, lol | 01:29 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | urlin2u: If nomodeset is used at the LiveCD boot menu it is automatically copied to the installed system by Ubiquity. | 01:29 |
|---|
| urlin2u | Jordan_U, far out man. ;) | 01:29 |
|---|
| tabakhase | urlin2u could i access grub after boot or must i do it before shutdown the livesystem? | 01:29 |
|---|
| tabakhase | copyd? great so menocare | 01:30 |
|---|
| urlin2u | tabakhase, it is suggested it may be set in but you would not do it that way. | 01:30 |
|---|
| andai1 | Let's say I wanna wipe this hard drive clean, and start again. Let's also say I want to be able to restore it in case I mess up ( disk image ) but I also want to be able to access all these files from the new OS in case everything goes well ( normal copy/paste ). And let's say I don't have enough disk space for both a disk image and a copy/paste. Then what? | 01:30 |
|---|
| bazhang | andai1, use a seperate home? | 01:30 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | andai1: Make a disk image and loop mount it to access the files. | 01:30 |
|---|
| urlin2u | tabakhase, if you install and get a black screen on reboot you would insert it in the grub menu, real easy. | 01:30 |
|---|
| andai1 | bazhang: Jordan_U: Ya got me. I'm talking about Windows XP :P | 01:31 |
|---|
| andai1 | I came here cause ##windows is dead and you guys are smart and this is kinda urgent. Forgive me | 01:31 |
|---|
| andai1 | anywho i do have an ubuntu install i can boot to do anything you guys suggest :D | 01:31 |
|---|
| bazhang | andai1, then be patient, please , this is ubuntu support only | 01:31 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | andai1: You can loop mount an ntfs image (as long as it's a bit for bit dump of the entire disk or partition) from within Ubuntu. | 01:31 |
|---|
| andai1 | cool :) | 01:32 |
|---|
| sethmcdoogle | andai1 got an external drive? could use clonezilla to make an image easily enough and write it to external storage | 01:32 |
|---|
| sethmcdoogle | though im not sure about mounting a partimage done with that tool | 01:32 |
|---|
| andai1 | Related question, is there a way to mount writable disk images in Windows? i.e. so i don't have to boot Ubuntu to access my Windows-specific files | 01:33 |
|---|
| andai1 | i googled it I only get ISO related stuff | 01:33 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | andai1: That is outside the scope of #ubuntu. | 01:33 |
|---|
| andai1 | sethmcdoogle: I got two external drives, but the one with enough space is FAT32 | 01:33 |
|---|
| sethmcdoogle | ntfs-3g you can mount an ntfs partition directly? | 01:33 |
|---|
| ke1ha | andai1: The just use it, then copy it where ya need too, botu Win an UB deals with FAT32 | 01:34 |
|---|
| andai1 | sethmcdoogle: That's kinda the only thing stopping me from copying everything or making a disk image, the 4gb file limit | 01:34 |
|---|
| spike1 | I use 2 hard drives one for Ubuntu and one for xp, loving Ubuntu and using xp less and less. | 01:34 |
|---|
| urlin2u | andai1, can you shrink the external partition , put a ntfs in big enough for your files? | 01:34 |
|---|
| sethmcdoogle | does it have to remain fat32? you could try convert driveletter: /fs:ntfs in windows? | 01:35 |

| Rask | I don't really know where but here to begin with this one... it's very strange. I just upgraded a system running ubuntu server 10.04 to 10.10 and then 11.04, and since then I've noticed an odd behavior in repeating keys in irssi. | 04:35 |
|---|
| Rask | If I press a letter key or backspace or pretty much anything but an arrow key, it repeats as normal, but if I press and hold an arrow key, it moves once, but does not repeat - but then when I release the key, the cursor assumes the position it would have taken if it had been repeating | 04:36 |

| Rask | I guess the first place to start is, what packages would have changed between 10.04 and 11.04? I mean, I don't expect irssi would have... | 04:37 |
|---|
| bullgard4_ | What command-line command will list in a terminal all packages contained in a DEB program package? | 04:38 |
|---|
| urlin2u | Rask, consider the varibles. | 04:38 |
|---|
| Rask | urlin2u: As far as I know, they are just irssi, screen, and ssh - unless there's another player in the terminal chain. Are there any others I'm missing? | 04:39 |
|---|
| rww | your terminal emulator | 04:40 |
|---|
| rhcp | Hey I forgot to ask | 04:40 |
|---|
| urlin2u | Rask, is this happening without sshing? | 04:40 |
|---|
| Rask | urlin2u: ..Hm, good question. | 04:40 |
|---|
| rhcp | whats a good xchat scirpt? for sysinfo on ubuntu? it looks like they ahve been taken down from xchat.org | 04:40 |
|---|
| Rask | rww: Using same PuTTY, same scripts | 04:41 |
|---|
| hack27 | if you remove the ram and it makes 1 short beep and 1 long beep does that mean something wrong???? | 04:41 |
|---|
| Rask | urlin2u: I shall check; one moment. | 04:41 |
|---|
| rww | hack27: ask ##hardware | 04:41 |
|---|
| Rask | urlin2u: Yes, it is. | 04:41 |
|---|
| Rask | so that leaves screen and irssi. | 04:41 |
|---|
| * hylian shrugs his shoulders | 04:41 |
| urlin2u | Rask, seems local can you plugin another keyboard? | 04:42 |
|---|
| rhcp | so anyone with a good script for xchat for ununtu to show sysinfo? :) | 04:42 |
|---|
| Tyrant | How do I check which driver was loaded for a specific USB device? | 04:42 |
|---|
| Rask | urlin2u: I mean, the strange repeat issue is happening on the console as well as through ssh | 04:42 |
|---|
| Rask | (different keyboard) | 04:42 |
|---|
| urlin2u | Rask, If in the same position just removing the possibilties would be first, I have not seen this anywhere except with a hardware issue in general, hard to say for me really. | 04:43 |
|---|
| Rask | Running bash inside screen does not show the issue | 04:44 |
|---|
| Rask | I'll have to try irssi outside screen... | 04:45 |
|---|
| * mhall prepares to shoot Windows 7 in the head | 04:45 |

|---|

| chaospsychex | sup | 04:47 |
|---|

|---|
| Rask | guess i know where to go now. :B Thanks for directing me, guys | 04:48 |

| ubottu | emerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives. | 04:50 |

| brainwave92 | urlin2u, yes i am | 04:51 |

| brainwave92 | actually compiz was running fine, and then one fine day, i dont know why, this happened. When i minimize, it just dissapears, but ALT+TAB shows me that window is open and i can access it | 04:55 |

| urlin2u | brainwave92, have you tried in the terminal killall gnome-panel it will kill it and it will return, | 04:57 |
|---|
| brainwave92 | urlin2u, the simple problem here is that window doesnt get minimized to menu | 04:58 |

| brainwave92 | in 10.04 , this was there by default, when i used it, and some simple setting somewhere solved it! | 04:58 |

| glebihan | sav_, I know...sorry | 06:34 |
|---|
| sav_ | glebihan: It's certainly at a better place than it was a few days ago. I couldn't even see the drive then. | 06:34 |
|---|
| justin__ | Well, I wasn't exactly downgrading ubuntu, just gnome3. | 06:35 |
|---|
| sav_ | glebihan: That's okay, I still appreciate what I learned from you. | 06:35 |

| Koshka | If anyone had experience fixing language issues in Ubuntu, I could use a pointer or two. | 06:35 |
|---|
| sav_ | glebihan: It's just so weird. When I got it it was still in the package. Everything went downhill when I tried to reformat it. | 06:36 |
|---|
| Starminn | Using Ubuntu 10.10, I am trying to use the Compiz screensaver. It works when manually invoked; however when I try to let the timer do it itself the default screensaver takes over and Compiz appears to never have activated. | 06:36 |

| p3rsist | Guys How can I install packages from Natty on Lucid? | 06:36 |
|---|
| theadmin | p3rsist: You don't. | 06:37 |
|---|
| glebihan | sav_, any error during formatting can have serious consequences... | 06:37 |
|---|
| justin__ | It still knows the packages exist, it just tells me it fails to fetch from all the URLs, so I cannot restore Gnome2! | 06:37 |
|---|
| K-Rich | hey all | 06:37 |
|---|
| Ir0nman | http://www.pastebin.cc/index.php?show=79 | 06:37 |
|---|
| glebihan | p3rsist, if you really want more recent packages, try finding ppas with packages built for lucid, or build from source | 06:37 |
|---|
| sav_ | glebihan: Obviously. I didn't do anything strange though, like yank it out. I just clicked format, and bam, broken. | 06:38 |
|---|
| Koshka | theadmin: I wanted to change date and other formats into Finnish but keep the menus and applications using English. However, some menus and application (not all, XChat for example) started using Finnish as well. Is there a clean fix for this? | 06:38 |
|---|
| sav_ | glebihan: It gave me an error about not picking a file type, though I had left it at FAT32 because that was the default option. | 06:38 |
|---|
| linagee | what is "us.archive.ubuntu.com" for? | 06:39 |
|---|
| theadmin | Koshka: Finnish... lol I thought you're Russian because of your nickname | 06:39 |
|---|
| === excelsio1 is now known as excelsior1 |
| theadmin | Koshka: Either way, sorry, no idea. Odd stuff honestly. | 06:40 |
|---|
| linagee | why do I get 91.189.88.40 when resolving us.archive.ubuntu.com? (91.0.0.0/8 is a RIPE network, not US.) | 06:40 |
|---|
| glebihan | sav_, FAT32 should have been just fine (and is to me the best choice for an external drive) | 06:40 |
|---|
| Starminn | Using Ubuntu 10.10, I am trying to use the Compiz screensaver. It works when manually invoked; however when I try to let the timer do it itself the default screensaver takes over and Compiz appears to never have activated. | 06:41 |
|---|
| sav_ | glebihan: Well, it's big, and I want to stick movies and games on it, so I'd like to put NTFS on it if I can. | 06:42 |
|---|
| Ir0nman | did you get the results? | 06:43 |
|---|
| urlin2u | Ir0nman, so what is booting at this point? | 06:43 |
|---|
| Ir0nman | only ubuntu | 06:43 |
|---|
| rawbdor | rww, hey just wanted to say thanks for the point ot the doc. I didn't end up upgrading but using the old repos allowed me to get the few packages I needed to get through | 06:43 |
|---|
| Ir0nman | windows 7 gives me errors and as you can see xp isnt even in the cfg | 06:43 |
|---|
| sav_ | glebihan: but yes, very strange problem. Maybe it's because of the heat? My cat is warming himself on it now, and my friend had heating issues in the laptop it was a replacement for. | 06:44 |
|---|
| Takyoji | Is the compose key function working in Ubuntu at all? I have a key chosen to act as a compose key, but it isn't working at all (and I've gotten it working before just fine in a couple other instances)? | 06:44 |
|---|
| ParkerR | Wow without Ubuntu one I actually have a faster boot time | 06:44 |
|---|
| Ir0nman | i have added xp to the cfg and it doesnt boot just black screen with cursor | 06:44 |
|---|
| glebihan | sav_, could be, though I don't remember of disk issues related to heat | 06:45 |
|---|
| glebihan | Starminn, did you try disabling the default screensaver ? | 06:46 |
|---|
| Takyoji | Erm, Ubuntu 11.04, I meant to specify. | 06:46 |
|---|
| sav_ | I don't know. It might resolve a little on its own. After I force-mounted it with the help of a nice person from this channel, it showed up in Disk Utility all on its own. | 06:46 |
|---|
| Starminn | glebihan: No. How would I do that? | 06:47 |
|---|
| glebihan | Starminn, System->Preference->Screensaver | 06:47 |
|---|
| jessie | Awesome! Just found out that Google Music added a Linux client. :-) | 06:47 |
|---|
| Starminn | glebihan: Clearly. There is no option for disabling | 06:48 |
|---|
| urlin2u | Ir0nman, it is a bit of a mess, to be honest I would start a thread on the ubuntu forums and post the boot script, I learned all of the stuff I know using the bootscript there,from a cadre of people really good at this. | 06:48 |
|---|
| glebihan | Starminn, there should be a "Activate screensaver when computer is idle" checkbox | 06:49 |
|---|
| Ir0nman | is there something other than grub I can use? | 06:49 |
|---|
| Starminn | glebihan: Ah. That's a sneaky way to word it. ;) We'll see how it goes. | 06:49 |
|---|
| urlin2u | Ir0nman, you have sda2 the original W7 boot partition it now has the whole XP boot set up there and a additional extra file in the XP sda5 which s in a extended partiton. | 06:50 |
|---|
| Ir0nman | weird im pretty sure the sda5 is windows xp | 06:50 |
|---|
| Ir0nman | i went into win7 and shrunk the hdd | 06:50 |
|---|
| Ir0nman | and then installed winxp | 06:51 |
|---|
| urlin2u | Ir0nman, I had a Wy natty and XP boot, the Xp was after the W7 I could only boot XP with easybcd setup in windows, but I had a clean system, yours is mucked up takemy word for it. | 06:51 |
|---|
| urlin2u | W7 | 06:51 |
|---|
| Ir0nman | i know its mucked up thats why im here :) | 06:51 |

| slim_charles | im having trouble with deluge, i have lets say 100 torrents currently loaded. i want deludge to move their storage to someplace else. i select all and right click and then move storage. enter new directory. but when i right click any of the torrents and do open folder, it takes me back to the old directory. it only works if i do it 1 by 1 | 07:12 |
|---|
| slim_charles | Anybody know a solution, or should i start using utorrent again? | 07:12 |
|---|
| urlin2u | slim_charles, you need to move the stuff to the new area then let deluge readit, basically, it wont move it you have to. | 07:13 |
|---|
| glebihan | slim_charles, don't know about deluge, I know it works fine with transmission | 07:13 |
|---|
| wildbat | utserver works good:> | 07:14 |
|---|
| slim_charles | urlin2u, oh i know about moving the actual files. i just want deluge to point to the new folder , so i can do force recheck and then seed or keep downlading | 07:14 |
|---|
| urlin2u | slim_charles, is it a external drive your trying to point to? | 07:17 |
|---|
| sosaited | How can I find out if the last reboot was a shutdown/restart or power failure on Lucid | 07:21 |
|---|
| slim_charles | urlin2u, no, internal sata | 07:21 |
|---|
| almoxarife | what is the terminal command to allow a script to run by root? | 07:24 |
|---|
| urlin2u | slim_charles, I had the same problem using a external, but when I shutdown deluge and the daemon, with everything paused and pointed it to the files new place it worked, try pausing all then shut it down and open it and open one to see if it is synced correctly. | 07:24 |
|---|
| almoxarife | chmod??? | 07:24 |
|---|
| minimec | sosaited: --> /var/log/messeges and maybe other log files | 07:25 |
|---|
| slim_charles | urlin2u, sounds like a good idea, ill try that | 07:25 |
|---|
| yezariaely | Anyone knows how to get the old scroll bars in current ubuntu | 07:25 |
|---|
| sosaited | minimec, I would have to guess based on timestamps or would there be some specific string for shutdown/reboot? | 07:26 |
|---|
| urlin2u | slim_charles, check with htop if you don't have the deluge icon in the top panel to make sure you shutdown the daemon, that think is the crux. | 07:26 |
|---|
| urlin2u | I | 07:26 |
|---|
| minimec | yezariaely: http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/how-to-get-classic-scrollbar-back-in-ubuntu-11-04-tip/ | 07:26 |
|---|
| yezariaely | minimec: thx | 07:27 |
|---|
| minimec | sosaited: It would certainly print some 'kernel' stuff, if the shutdown was on power failure... | 07:28 |

| Eryn_1983_FL | allright I Am frustrated and I am not going to take it anymore.. | 07:29 |
|---|
| yezariaely | after dist upgrade my dpkg status file is corrupt. How can I fix that? | 07:29 |
|---|
| Eryn_1983_FL | I have installed numerous tiled managers in ubuntu and the only one that works is bluetile. that comand specifcally | 07:30 |
|---|
| slim_charles | yezariaely, i think u can do that by going to recovery mode | 07:31 |
|---|
| slim_charles | im not sure though | 07:31 |
|---|
| yezariaely | slim_charles: thing is, there is only some descrption of a package broken | 07:32 |
|---|
| urlin2u | yezariaely, look in synaptic broken packages | 07:32 |
|---|
| slim_charles | yezariaely, this command comes to mind dpkg-reconfigure | 07:33 |
|---|
| Guest60390 | hi | 07:34 |
|---|
| urgru | hi guys | 07:34 |
|---|
| amogh_c | hi | 07:34 |
|---|
| Guest60390 | i've a problem with vmware + ubuntu 11.04 as host | 07:34 |
|---|
| urgru | *newbe* | 07:34 |
|---|
| Guest60390 | is there someone that can help me? | 07:34 |
|---|
| Guest60390 | my problem is that the keycombo alt gr + <key> doesn't work | 07:35 |
|---|
| urgru | Anybody around who can help out with wlan configuration? | 07:35 |
|---|
| urgru | I'd appreciate | 07:35 |
|---|
| auronandace | Guest60390: have you tried using virtualbox instead (that is open source) | 07:35 |
|---|
| yezariaely | urlin2u: this only solves damaged dependencies if I got that right | 07:35 |
|---|
| slim_charles | urgru, what exactly do you need? | 07:36 |
|---|
| urlin2u | yezariaely, just a hunch on my part, not really sure. | 07:36 |
|---|
| urgru | hi slim_charles. wlan networks show, i enter the correct password, but it doesn't connect | 07:36 |
|---|
| Guest60390 | auronandace, vbox doesn't have something like the unity mode, that i found very useful | 07:37 |
|---|
| urgru | it works on this machine with a different os | 07:37 |
|---|
| urgru | so hardwar should be fine | 07:37 |
|---|
| auronandace | Guest60390: its got seamless mode | 07:37 |
|---|
| Eryn_1983_FL | I got stump to work yay | 07:37 |
|---|
| slim_charles | urgru, do you know the network? | 07:37 |
|---|
| slim_charles | is it your own network or school? | 07:37 |
|---|
| urgru | yes. it's my home network and I am connected on a different machine as well | 07:37 |
|---|
| slim_charles | because they use more than just ssid and password | 07:37 |
|---|
| slim_charles | ok | 07:38 |
|---|
| urgru | ubuntu 11.04 it is | 07:38 |
|---|
| slim_charles | ok is this machine you trying to connect a laptop? | 07:38 |
|---|
| slim_charles | the one that currently isnt connected | 07:38 |
|---|
| urgru | yes. it's a laptop | 07:39 |
|---|
| urgru | wlan0 IEEE 802.11abg ESSID:"FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7140 Annex A" | 07:39 |

|---|
| slim_charles | is the first machine connect wireless as well? | 07:39 |
|---|
| slim_charles | urgru, while not sure what exactly the problem is, we can try to figure it out | 07:40 |
|---|
| slim_charles | theres many steps, first you should try connecting only 1 machine at a time and see if that works. | 07:40 |
|---|
| slim_charles | the second thing you could do, is go under edit connections, delete all existing wireless connections | 07:40 |
|---|
| urgru | I already gtried the first step | 07:41 |
|---|
| slim_charles | add a new one, while looking at the router config. to make sure youre using the same ssid, infrastrucutre if that applies and password | 07:41 |
|---|
| yezariaely | urlin2u slim_charles finally found a solution here: http://thepcspy.com/read/fixing-dpkg-status-corruption/ | 07:41 |
|---|
| yezariaely | it was a wrong package description | 07:42 |
|---|
| yezariaely | that is bad. this should be checked by the maintainers (automatically, of course) | 07:42 |
|---|
| slim_charles | make sure you have the correct wireless security checked, urgru , and also MAKE sure to assign it a static local ip different from the other machine | 07:42 |
|---|
| slim_charles | does it fix your problem though? yezariaely | 07:42 |
|---|
| yezariaely | slim_charles: indeed it does. | 07:43 |
|---|
| ram0042 | !dpkg | 07:43 |
|---|
| ubottu | dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. | 07:43 |
|---|
| urlin2u | yezariaely, cool looks ugly. | 07:43 |
|---|
| chaospsychex | can some1 help me to run the ubuntu install from a partition ? | 07:43 |
|---|
| chaospsychex | i basically want to take the files in the .ISO, put them onto a hdd partition and boot into it to do the install onto another partition | 07:44 |
|---|
| slim_charles | yezariaely, does this actually fix the problem of there being a corrupt package status file? | 07:44 |
|---|
| slim_charles | or just remove it so it doesnt give the message, yezariaely | 07:44 |
|---|
| slim_charles | ?? | 07:44 |
|---|
| yezariaely | slim_charles: so the reason for the problems was an empty line in a package description. | 07:45 |
|---|
| chaospsychex | i have done it before but i can't remember how i did it | 07:45 |
|---|
| yezariaely | thus, dpkg expects a new key:value pair | 07:45 |
|---|
| yezariaely | now I removed the newline manually and the status file is parseable again | 07:45 |
|---|
| slim_charles | ah, so nothing to do with packages being actually broken? just mis reading by dpkg? | 07:45 |
|---|
| yezariaely | so yes, the problem is fixed for me. | 07:45 |
|---|
| slim_charles | you might as well make a forum post and post that as a solution | 07:46 |
|---|
| ram0042 | chaospsychex: are you in linux right now? | 07:46 |
|---|
| yezariaely | Maybe the description of the package is broken, slim_charles | 07:46 |
|---|
| slim_charles | cause that looks like a tough find | 07:46 |
|---|
| urlin2u | slim_charles, gold star for you. ;) | 07:46 |
|---|
| yezariaely | slim_charles: so if that goes for the total package broken, then yes | 07:46 |
|---|
| slim_charles | wat gold star? | 07:46 |
|---|
| urlin2u | slim_charles, a evidence of your help and success. | 07:47 |
|---|
| yezariaely | slim_charles: maybe you can do a apt-cache show mirthkit and see if there is a new line in the description? | 07:47 |
|---|
| urlin2u | an | 07:47 |
|---|
| slim_charles | lol | 07:47 |
|---|
| slim_charles | yezariaely, how would you check for newline like that? you def need some extra commands in there | 07:48 |
|---|
| yezariaely | slim_charles: see the url I posted. | 07:49 |
|---|
| ram0042 | does anyone know how to disable things in Ubuntu like services and deamons? | 07:49 |
|---|
| yezariaely | slim_charles: sure, but a plain old regular expression should be enough | 07:49 |
|---|
| eFfeM | hi, n00bish question: coming from opensuse I moved to ubuntu 11.04 (with gnome; unity was a step too far for me); now gnome restored my desktop upon reboot, how can I achieve that in ubuntu ? | 07:49 |
|---|
| ram0042 | 11.04 | 07:49 |
|---|
| slim_charles | i saw that, those are s a lot of steps, i was thinking of putting all of those in like 1 step | 07:49 |
|---|
| simion314 | hi, i have a laptop with a 2 years old laptop, one day it crashed so i tried reinstalling it, the ubuntu installers fails when formating the drive. I also tried a Win XP CD and it also fails (freezes ) when formating the drive. Should i assume that i need a new disk? or is other things i could try? | 07:50 |
|---|
| eFfeM | Searched on the web also noticed I could add programs to autostart through system/preferences/startup applications, but I do not have that entry (nor a sessions entry) | 07:50 |
|---|
| yezariaely | slim_charles: in fact it is only this line that is necessary pcregrep -nM '\n\s*\n[^P]+' /var/lib/dpkg/status | 07:50 |
|---|
| eFfeM | anyone an idea? | 07:50 |
|---|
| yezariaely | slim_charles: and I think this could be done in sed as well | 07:51 |
|---|
| glebihan | eFfeM, the menu item may be hidden, try right-clicking and the menu and select "edit menu" to find out if it's there | 07:51 |
|---|
| minimec | eFfeM: You have a gdm Session called 'ubuntu classic'. That session would give you a normal gnome2 session. | 07:52 |
|---|
| eFfeM | glebihan: will check | 07:52 |
|---|
| ru6yxx | !gnome2 | 07:52 |
|---|
| glebihan | eFfeM, you could also launch this tool with the "gnome-session-properties" command | 07:53 |
|---|
| eFfeM | minimec: will try that too; issue is that I used to have startup problems: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/803992; worked around these as described there (I'm Frans) | 07:53 |
|---|

|---|
| eFfeM | but still often gdm crashes first time then asks for relogin, not sure if it then does a different session | 07:54 |
|---|
| eFfeM | glebihan: all in gnome-session-properties is checked and no startup applications in it | 07:55 |
|---|
| yezariaely | slim_charles: this seems to be something for lintian, doesn't it? (if it is not already checked in there) | 07:55 |
|---|
| glebihan | eFfeM, gnome-session-properties lets you edit startup applications | 07:55 |
|---|
| Besogon | hi!. Does anyone know howto get definition of system groups? | 07:55 |
|---|
| eFfeM | glebihan: oops misunderstood things; I can add in there | 07:55 |
|---|
| eFfeM | glebihan: yeah realised it just after I hit enter | 07:56 |
|---|

| glebihan | eFfeM, did you install gnome 3 ? | 07:57 |
|---|
| minimec | eFfeM: Well the bug is about a modified gdm (from the gnome3 ppa). I nmy eyes adding gnome3 to ubuntu 11.04 natty is a very bad idea, as you mix gtk2 and gtk3 | 07:57 |
|---|
| eFfeM | glebihan: it has been a while ago, but I think it is gnome2; let me see if I can find out | 07:57 |
|---|
| slim_charles | yezariaely, probably yes , it is definitely a weird issue which im sure others have had or have and dont know they have it | 07:57 |
|---|
| yezariaely | simion314: did you try a live cd? | 07:58 |
|---|
| sosaited | Guest60390, Depends on your question | 07:58 |
|---|
| simion314 | urlin2u: i started that but it seems to take too much time and the progress indicator is not so intuitive, i did not have ay idea if it is almost done or just begining | 07:58 |
|---|
| eFfeM | glebihan: minimec about gnome says version 2.32.1 distributor ubuntu | 07:58 |
|---|
| simion314 | yezariaely: yes, it starts the live cd | 07:58 |
|---|
| yezariaely | and you can read from the hdd with it? | 07:58 |
|---|
| urlin2u | simion314, it has a how many passes notation. | 07:59 |
|---|
| glebihan | eFfeM, ok so that bug report you posted isn't about the same problem as yours as it is related to gnome3 | 07:59 |
|---|
| eFfeM | glebihan: ah ok, well some of the answers in it are mine and apply to gnome2 | 08:00 |
|---|
| eFfeM | will update the report | 08:00 |
|---|
| slim_charles | mmmmmmbooogers | 08:01 |
|---|
| slim_charles | its nice outside | 08:01 |
|---|
| eFfeM | glebihan: added a note in the bug report | 08:01 |
|---|
| yezariaely | slim_charles: not for me ;) | 08:02 |
|---|
| ram0042 | can anyone help me set up a vpn connection? | 08:02 |
|---|
| yezariaely | slim_charles: lintian seems to check for this errors | 08:02 |
|---|
| yezariaely | so I should bash the guy creating the package for not checking it | 08:02 |
|---|
| slim_charles | ah | 08:02 |
|---|
| slim_charles | or lintian missed it? | 08:03 |
|---|
| ru6yxx | !lintian | 08:03 |
|---|
| eFfeM | glebihan: minimec my gnome issue is that apparently my new compu is too fast causing this startup problem | 08:03 |
|---|
| minimec | eFfeM: That sounds strange to me. | 08:04 |
|---|
| yezariaely | ru6yxx: lintian is a check tool for creating software packages | 08:05 |
|---|
| ram0042 | !software packages | 08:05 |
|---|
| yezariaely | ru6yxx: it ensures that you do not forget descriptions and stuff | 08:05 |
|---|
| ru6yxx | ok rhanks | 08:05 |
|---|
| yezariaely | software packages are thhe things you see when opening the ubuntu software install tools | 08:05 |
|---|
| ram0042 | !install tools | 08:06 |
|---|
| yezariaely | :-p | 08:06 |
|---|
| eFfeM | minimec: will peek some more in the logs, now still I often (always?) get a message that starting fails, but I can then restart and log in | 08:06 |
|---|
| ram0042 | joking | 08:06 |
|---|
| eFfeM | will try a few things and report back | 08:06 |
|---|
| yezariaely | ram0042: you wanna see me acting as a bot don't you? ... | 08:06 |
|---|
| eFfeM | minimec: but originall I also got the null user name problem that was in the bug report I gave | 08:06 |

| glebihan | eFfeM, well maybe you could try replacing the whole "start on" section by this one : http://paste.ubuntu.com/664820/ (it's my /etc/init/gdm.conf file). Further than that I have no idea... | 08:24 |

| nfun | hello I need a small help, I want to install an tar.gz application, I am new user in linux. | 08:27 |
|---|
| nfun | can anyone help? | 08:27 |
|---|
| spal | I don't use Ubuntu but a quick question for a friend of mine who needs help. | 08:30 |
|---|
| spal | Does the latest version of Ubuntu installer require the user to explictly allow grub to overwrite the MBR? Is there a screen or dialog during the installation that requires the user to decide whether or not to install GRUB? | 08:30 |
|---|
| glebihan | nfun, what application is it ? isn't it available in the repositories ? | 08:31 |
|---|
| nfun | it's utorrent | 08:32 |
|---|
| overclucker | utorrent has a linux release? | 08:32 |
|---|
| Abhijit | spal, yes mbr gets overwritten but i think you can tell it to not do so | 08:32 |
|---|
| nfun | yes | 08:32 |
|---|
| th0r | nfun: save yourself a lot of problems. Install a torrent package from synaptic | 08:32 |
|---|
| nfun | i will check | 08:33 |
|---|
| urlin2u | spal, in the custom install you can put grub in Ubuntu, not the mbr, choose the partition. | 08:33 |
|---|
| glebihan | !torrent | nfun | 08:33 |
|---|
| ubottu | nfun: Torrent clients: Transmission (GTK and terminal-based), Deluge-Torrent, Freeloader, BitStormLite, BitTornado-GUI (GTK), KTorrent (KDE), QTorrent (Qt), Azureus/Vuse (Java), TorrentFlux (web-based), bittornado, rTorrent, cTorrent, bittorrent, aria2 (terminal-based) - FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html - See also !P2P | 08:33 |
|---|
| spal | Abhijit, okay. so the installer does show the grub dialog and let the user decide. am I right? my friend claims that she did not see the GRUB dialog at all. It must be an error on her part. right? | 08:33 |
|---|
| Cobra36093 | probably | 08:34 |
|---|
| urlin2u | spal, has to be the custom install bottom line it can't be held back but put in a partition=ubuntu. | 08:34 |
|---|
| Cobra36093 | no | 08:34 |
|---|
| nfun | I found other torrent programs but I want utorrent | 08:34 |
|---|
| Abhijit | spal, no | 08:34 |
|---|
| Abhijit | spal, as i remember there is advance option in last dialoge window | 08:35 |
|---|
| Cobra36093 | it was differnt when I did a dualboot with osx | 08:35 |
|---|
| urlin2u | Abhijit, the advanced is not in Natty. | 08:35 |
|---|
| Abhijit | urlin2u, ok | 08:35 |
|---|
| spal | so she is trying to create a dual boot. she says she has installed Ubuntu but Ubuntu doesn't appear while booting. | 08:35 |
|---|
| Abhijit | i forgot | 08:35 |
|---|
| Cobra36093 | but a dual boot with osx yields some verry odd things | 08:35 |
|---|
| urlin2u | spal, did she use a thumb to install? | 08:36 |
|---|
| Cobra36093 | I did | 08:36 |
|---|
| spal | no, the ubuntu live + installer CD | 08:36 |
|---|
| Cobra36093 | had no probs | 08:36 |
|---|
| nfun | can you tell me the command to install a tar.gz? | 08:36 |
|---|
| nfun | or it's a lot? | 08:36 |
|---|
| spal | urlin2u, what do you mean by "custom install"? I don't know what it is. | 08:36 |
|---|
| Cobra36093 | on ubuntu/mint? | 08:37 |
|---|
| urlin2u | spal, can you get her to run a script from a live ubuntu cd and get it pastebinned? | 08:37 |
|---|
| Abhijit | !complie | nfun | 08:37 |
|---|
| spal | urlin2u, yes, which script? | 08:37 |
|---|
| overclucker | nfun: it looks like utorrent only has the server component for linux. the client component is not yet complete. | 08:37 |
|---|
| Abhijit | !compile | nfun | 08:37 |
|---|
| ubottu | nfun: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 08:37 |
|---|
| urlin2u | spal, http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/ | 08:37 |
|---|
| urlin2u | spal, creates a huge text file we need all of it in a pastebin. | 08:37 |
|---|
| glebihan | nfun, you should installation instructions inside the tarball (some README or INSTALL file) | 08:38 |
|---|
| glebihan | nfun, should *have* | 08:38 |
|---|
| nfun | overclucker so you suggest me put torrent client that i find in synaptic? | 08:38 |

|---|
| badbod | there are no issues, it works fine in wdoze and has always worked fine before , I have just gone to install 100.04 and it will not reconize the set at all, so I am guessing that dmraid or dev-mapper is broken? or I need to do something like compile kernel with mapper static? | 08:58 |

| yezariaely | RKyle: vlc, mplayer, xine | 09:03 |
|---|
| K-Rich | night all | 09:04 |
|---|
| glebihan | eFfeM, it sometimes happens when gdm restarts the display that it switches VT | 09:04 |
|---|
| RKyle | yezariaely, Thanks. | 09:04 |
|---|
| eFfeM | glebihan: can it use 7? if I go to that one it is where the boot log is ... | 09:04 |
|---|
| yezariaely | RKyle: so is it for audio or video? | 09:04 |
|---|
| RKyle | yezariaely, Audio but it needs to get the music from another partition with an NTFS format. | 09:05 |
|---|
| glebihan | eFfeM, you mean forcing gdm to chooose VT7 ? | 09:05 |
|---|
| slim_charles | vlc can do that | 09:05 |
|---|
| yezariaely | RKyle: then i would suggest xmms (similar to winamp) or banshee | 09:06 |
|---|
| yezariaely | RKyle: any player can access ntfs partitions if they are mounted | 09:06 |
|---|
| RKyle | yezariaely, Alright, thanks. :D | 09:06 |
|---|
| eFfeM | glebihan: afaik I did not force, and I know how to force, but if I now do ctrl-alt-f7 it gives me the bot log screen saying starting service X etc; can gdm use that same VT? | 09:06 |
|---|
| RKyle | I know but some of them have problems from time to time for various reasons. | 09:07 |
|---|
| yezariaely | RKyle: ha I forgot one. I like audacious (it is running at the moment ;-) ) | 09:07 |
|---|
| glebihan | eFfeM, it should be able to, as long as there isn't already a display in that VT | 09:07 |
|---|
| vinuvaka | Hm.. | 09:07 |
|---|
| vinuvaka | And What about banshee? | 09:08 |
|---|
| yezariaely | vinuvaka: mentioned that earlier ;) | 09:08 |

| RKyle | yezariaely, I'm pretty used to Windows Media Player because most of the time I'm limited to Windows for various reasons, are any of them similar such as the library function? | 09:08 |
|---|
| vinuvaka | Oh, I got it! :) | 09:08 |
|---|
| sl33k | I want to upgrade firefox from the terminal. How do i do this? | 09:09 |
|---|
| eFfeM | glebihan: these are not in the failing log | 09:09 |
|---|
| glebihan | eFfeM, looks like you may have something there | 09:09 |
|---|
| slim_charles | RKyle, try Clementine | 09:09 |
|---|
| yezariaely | RKyle: I think they all have some library function but I think banshee would be the most similar, then | 09:09 |
|---|
| eFfeM | glebihan: will dig into this, but it is uncharted territory for me; ah well, learning new things on a saturday morning :-) | 09:09 |
|---|
| urlin2u | sl33k, which version do you have? | 09:10 |
|---|
| RKyle | slim_charles, yezariaely , Thanks, I'll try both and see which one I like best. | 09:10 |
|---|
| slim_charles | that or Amarok | 09:10 |
|---|
| yezariaely | ah, yes, and of course clementine | 09:10 |
|---|
| slim_charles | Amarok is the most powerful out of all those though | 09:10 |
|---|
| slim_charles | because theres scripts for it | 09:10 |
|---|
| vinuvaka | Well I am sorry if my question is out of topic, but i want to ask you all something that sometimes my ubuntu hangs a lot while using for a long time,,,, any solution??? | 09:10 |

| RKyle | Random question out of curiosity, say I installed gnome because it was the only disc I have, I don't have any thumb drives or extra CDs. Is there a chance I can switch to KDE or would that require a fresh install? | 09:16 |
|---|
| urlin2u | glebihan, cool I was trying to find the highest release . | 09:16 |
|---|
| vinuvaka | What i have to enter in Terminal? swapon-s? | 09:16 |
|---|
| glebihan | yezariaely, yep they're already working on versions 7 and 8 | 09:16 |
|---|
| AMD | can i install opera web browser on ubuntu.? | 09:16 |
|---|
| yezariaely | vinuvaka: yes but with a space before -s | 09:16 |
|---|
| sl33k | glebihan: thats cool :) | 09:16 |
|---|
| yezariaely | so enter "swapon -s" without the quotes | 09:16 |
|---|
| urlin2u | sl33k, both link have the same ppa. | 09:17 |
|---|
| sl33k | urlin2u: thanks for this link | 09:17 |
|---|

| ironm | good morning. Can you give your point of view about pros and contras when using CentOS or ubuntu / debian as production servers? - Thank you in advance for any hints. | 09:17 |

| simmouk87 | ironm: less headaches with centos | 09:18 |
|---|
| yezariaely | vinuvaka: can you post it on pastebin? | 09:18 |

| vsync | ironm think i'd go with debian. stable as hell, repos have a bit outdated software, but it doesn't matter that much on a production server | 09:18 |

| ironm | thank you glebihan simion314 and vsync :) | 09:20 |
|---|
| vsync | RKyle yeah... | 09:20 |
|---|
| glebihan | RKyle, yes you just have to install the "kubuntu-desktop" package | 09:20 |
|---|
| ironm | vsync, squeeze has quite outdated packages | 09:20 |

| RKyle | And apt-get remove gnome-desktop right? | 09:20 |

|---|
| vinuvaka | i didn't get you? | 09:26 |
|---|
| Lasers | AMD: Open a terminal. Applications --> Terminal. Run that. | 09:26 |
|---|
| yezariaely | vinuvaka: so there are log files in linux. If you have problems, the sometimes they are written in logfiles | 09:26 |
|---|
| Lasers | AMD: Please talk here instead of private message. | 09:26 |
|---|
| yezariaely | they log files are in /var/log/ | 09:27 |

| tobyburton | Somehow I managed to mess things up, I can ssh with private ip, but the dyndns I setup doesn't work anymore. it hangs infinitely, or times out on some connections. However, the dynamic dns works for WOL, so I'm not sure where the real error is. | 09:27 |
|---|
| AMD | ok | 09:27 |
|---|
| vinuvaka | yezariaely: how to do that..??? | 09:27 |
|---|
| yezariaely | either in terminal enter cd /var/log or in a file browser navigate to /var/log | 09:28 |
|---|
| vinuvaka | after that? | 09:28 |
|---|
| Lasers | AMD: What does the message say after you ran the command? | 09:29 |

| yezariaely | vinuvaka: you know when this happened the last time (accurately to day, hour, minute?) | 09:29 |

| white_magic | does ubuntu need any special configuration to be able to read 3TB ntfs volumes? | 10:19 |
|---|
| theadmin | white_magic: Nope, why would it? | 10:19 |
|---|
| white_magic | theadmin: well, certain windoze OSs (like XP), do. something about needing to use GPT instead of MBR (MBR limitations) | 10:19 |
|---|
| oCean | starZ: seeing how many duplicates there are, and the importance set to high, I assume they are working to fix the issue. I don't think there's a workaround, since none is mentioned in the bugreport | 10:19 |

| llutz | white_magic: so do linux-systems | 10:20 |
|---|
| theadmin | white_magic: Ah, well, could be but that's not Linux, that's MBR problems | 10:20 |

| white_magic | anyone here familiar with clonezilla? can it write an imagine as a FILE to an ntfs volume? | 10:32 |
|---|

| Linkan | i know what AMD means | 10:32 |
|---|
| Herakles | ohhh wow...., no thanks.... i am just a stupid user and don´t want to become an expert.... | 10:32 |
|---|
| white_magic | Eric-Nor: look into Clonezilla live boot option thru USB | 10:32 |
|---|
| Herakles | not now, at least... ( maybe in future.) | 10:33 |
|---|
| BlackArchDog | Herakles: your not going to become and expert and learning to use apt-get .... | 10:33 |
|---|
| Linkan | he means he connects through a proxy with that indian 2g service, and most of those dont count proxy data as "DATA" so, the money wount tick away | 10:33 |
|---|
| Eric-Nor | white_magic: thx, i will look into that....no on-the-fly clone? | 10:33 |
|---|
| Linkan | hence, "free" internet | 10:33 |
|---|
| BlackArchDog | Herakles: apt-get package manager is as easy as it gets... | 10:34 |
|---|
| Herakles | That is not my fault..., I guess the OS is faulty.... | 10:34 |
|---|
| white_magic | Eric-Nor - perhaps. Clonezilla is intended to backup drives as images. I think that involves ALL the partitions at once, crammed into an image file | 10:34 |
|---|
| llutz | Herakles: umount the dvd, run "sudo apt-cdrom add" and try again | 10:34 |
|---|
| white_magic | i'm still a bit confused what 'on-the-fly' means here | 10:35 |
|---|
| BlackArchDog | Herakles: About one second of typing and package is installed | 10:35 |
|---|
| Herakles | thank you llutz..., i am going to give it a try.... | 10:35 |

| Eric-Nor | Sidewinder1: nope. i can try it. tried both hdd's with new install, and the system restarted after 2-3 minutes. finally i got i to work after some tries. but i want to change to the other hdd. | 10:39 |

| theadmin | apokalipse: I think you answered it yourself, compile it from source. Once you get to "make menuconfig", mark that option | 11:14 |

| larryone | theadmin, dr_willis, aaah - you guys misunderstood my initial problem | 11:14 |
|---|
| theadmin | larryone: Oh? | 11:14 |
|---|
| larryone | not a matter of dragging to screens edge to move toa differernt workspace | 11:14 |

| ubottu | selami_kazan43: rsync is a fast remote file copy and synchronization program - For more see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/rsync | 11:16 |

| apokalipse | thank you theadmin but have you a link eplaining how to re compil it ? | 11:17 |
|---|
| alex__ | apokalipse, google it | 11:17 |
|---|
| theadmin | apokalipse: Well... This isn't really for Ubuntu, but this chapter explains it quite well. Just ignore the emerge parts. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=7#doc_chap3 | 11:18 |

| ActionParsnip1 | selami_kazan43: dropbox can do that | 11:18 |

| shinsuke | hi. i want to create a truecrypt container by using --filesystem=ext3 under ubuntu. but when i mount the container i get the error: wrong filesystem. please help. thanks. | 11:18 |
|---|
| jrib | !kernel | apokalipse | 11:18 |
|---|
| ubottu | apokalipse: The core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages) | 11:18 |
|---|
| apokalipse | thanks theadmin and alex__ yes i'm googling ! | 11:18 |
|---|
| alex__ | apokalipse, if you're on ubuntu there's a really nice application doing everything for you | 11:18 |
|---|
| alex__ | apokalipse, can't remember it's name now though | 11:19 |
|---|
| alex__ | maybe someone else can | 11:19 |
|---|
| vinothkr | ? | 11:20 |
|---|
| alex__ | apokalipse, it's called KernelCheck | 11:20 |
|---|
| wildbat | dr_willis,theadmin: tried escaping , qouting , qoute and escaping in --boot-directory all failed :S | 11:21 |
|---|
| alex__ | apokalipse, check it out, it's quite easy to rebuild and configure the kernel | 11:21 |
|---|
| Ramses | AMD? | 11:21 |
|---|
| alex__ | wildbat, what are you trying to do? | 11:22 |
|---|
| theadmin | wildbat: You prolly can't install to such a directory then | 11:22 |
|---|
| wildbat | alex__: grub-install :> to a location like "/media/USB Ext4 60GB" | 11:23 |
|---|
| apokalipse | thanks alex | 11:23 |
|---|
| alex__ | that makes no sense | 11:23 |
|---|
| alex__ | it has to be a device | 11:23 |
|---|
| alex__ | that is, /dev/someething | 11:24 |
|---|
| alex__ | at least that's what man says :) | 11:24 |
|---|
| wildbat | alex__: --boot-directory | 11:24 |
|---|
| theadmin | wildbat: How about you manually mount that USB stick elsewhere? | 11:24 |
|---|
| vinothkr | wildbat, I guess you cant do grub install on some mounted drive. | 11:24 |
|---|
| alex__ | wildbat, but that's just where you put the actual images | 11:25 |
|---|
| theadmin | wildbat: sudo mount -o remount "/media/USB Ext4 60GB" /mnt | 11:25 |
|---|
| edbian | wildbat: grub-install --recheck --boot-directory="/mnt/some/path/" /dev/sda (no number on /dev/sda just the letter e.g. a, b, c whatev) | 11:25 |
|---|
| wildbat | theadmin: yeah i make a ln -s that worked . but bug in grub-install:S | 11:25 |
|---|
| alex__ | wildbat, default for --boot-dir is /boot/grub | 11:25 |
|---|
| wildbat | alex__: i am remaking a boot USB :) | 11:26 |
|---|
| alex__ | wildbat, I see | 11:26 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | theadmin: you'll need to escape the spaces | 11:26 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | theadmin: USB\ Ext4\ 60Gb | 11:27 |

| theadmin | ActionParsnip1: I haz quotes there :P | 11:27 |

| kaiyin | if install ubuntu on a mobile hard drive, where will it write MBR? | 11:34 |

| selami_kazan43 | Sidewinder1: i installed it . but it just copy folders not files. :( | 11:34 |

| edbian | kaiyin: yes | 11:34 |
|---|
| glebihan | edbian, the question was "where" | 11:35 |
|---|
| kaiyin | edbian: where? | 11:35 |
|---|
| edbian | kaiyin: where? in the MBR of the drive that ubuntu is being installed on | 11:35 |
|---|
| edbian | kaiyin: the MBR of any drive is the first 512bytes | 11:35 |
|---|
| kaiyin | i have this pc with win xp installed, and i want to boot into ubuntu with a mobile hard drive. I want to make sure that the original MBR on the pc be not altered. | 11:36 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | kaiyin- unplug the xp drive when you installl ubuntu | 11:36 |
|---|
| th0r | selami_kazan43: you have to be careful with grsync. /home/test will copy the folder test, /home/test/ will copy just the files inside test | 11:36 |
|---|
| kaiyin | edbian: that is to say, it will be on the mobile drive? | 11:37 |
|---|
| edbian | kaiyin: It will not as long as you install all ubuntu partitions (specifically boot) onto the mobile HDD. If you really wanna be sure. Disconnect the xp hdd while you do the install. | 11:37 |
|---|
| edbian | kaiyin: yes | 11:37 |

| TestingTesting1 | I am getting this weired error while installing valac, how to fix it? e.g: https://gist.github.com/1143756 | 11:42 |
|---|
| glebihan | TestingTesting1, maybe some pointers there : http://superuser.com/questions/199582/apt-error-could-not-perform-immediate-configuration-on | 11:44 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | selami_kazan43: why can't you use them, it's the same style interface as the one you are using now, text | 11:45 |
|---|
| selami_kazan43 | ActionParsnip1 i know. not because it is difficult or something. i just don't want to open terminal every t,me to copy paste a file :) i do it million times in a day. i don't use pause/resume features if i will use terminal. | 11:46 |
|---|
| glebihan | selami_kazan43, then just use nautilus... | 11:46 |
|---|
| glebihan | selami_kazan43, no sorry | 11:46 |
|---|
| selami_kazan43 | glebihan ok. thank you! | 11:46 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | selami_kazan43: a tonne of linux's power is in the terminal, it willpay dividends to learn how to use it | 11:47 |
|---|
| glebihan | selami_kazan43, you won't have pause/resume feature | 11:47 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | selami_kazan43: a lot of the mundane repetative tasks you do can easily be scripted | 11:47 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | TestingTesting1: did you websearch for the error you got? | 11:48 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | TestingTesting1: try: sudo apt-get clean then retry | 11:48 |
|---|
| dr_willis | guake. or other apps mean never gaving to open a term over and over.. :) | 11:48 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | TestingTesting1: if you get the same then run: cd /var/cache/apt/archives; sudo dpkg -i *.deb | 11:49 |
|---|
| * ActionParsnip1 loves guake :) | 11:49 |
| dr_willis | awn has a nice terminal applet also | 11:49 |

|---|
| Estragon | how can I do this ? | 11:52 |
|---|
| JakeR003 | i'm on my 4th day and i learned very little | 11:52 |
|---|
| bobJabba | lol @ th0r | 11:52 |
|---|
| Estragon | already went to system => preferences => power management, but it continue to lower / up the brightness | 11:52 |
|---|
| JakeR003 | where do you plug the cable in your brain? to upload the matrix infos | 11:52 |
|---|
| th0r | Estragon: sometimes it is a function of the bios | 11:52 |
|---|
| Estragon | th0r: gonna check this later then, thx | 11:53 |
|---|
| glebihan | Estragon, System->preferences->power management or "gnome-power-manager" | 11:53 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | JakeR003: We are all learning more about the OS each day, after 4 days you probably picked up a lot but it's subtle | 11:53 |

| Hackwar | hi folks, I'm a little bit stumped. I installed ubuntu 11.04 in virtualbox on a windows host and now wanted to install a bitnami stack (the redmine one, to be precise) I downloaded the file, which has a .bin extension and according to their wiki, you simply have to "doubleclick", | 11:55 |
|---|
| Hackwar | but then I get the message that there is no application associated with these types of files. What am I doing wrong??? | 11:55 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | Hackwar: mark it as executable and you can double click it | 11:56 |
|---|
| Hackwar | its already marked as rwx | 11:56 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | Hackwar: then run it in a terminal | 11:56 |
|---|
| thechef | chenthu, by removing it with dpkg, i guess (maybe also with force) | 11:56 |

| uni4dfx | is there a way to reboot ubuntu in a way that you could resume everything you were doing? sort of like hibernation | 12:12 |

| glebihan | uni4dfx, you can save your session in order for it to be restored on reboot, see "gnome-session-save" | 12:14 |

| bullgard4_ | uni4dfx: What is the difference to hibernation? | 12:14 |

| uni4dfx | glebihan that's not good enough. i have to close and re-open every application | 12:14 |

| uni4dfx | bullgard4_ well in hibernation / suspension everything stays exactly the way you left it | 12:15 |
|---|
| glebihan | uni4dfx, that is what gnome-session-save should do | 12:15 |

| triplc | how to "remove/reset" the menu? I installed Ubuntu while keeping the "home" folder of an old linux. Then i run 'rm -rf .gnome* .config* .kde*'. However i still see old menu item while clicking on "Applications" | 13:20 |
|---|
| dr-willis | damno: i think i saw that in their faq on spliting audio/video once. | 13:20 |
|---|
| dr-willis | trip | 13:20 |
|---|
| dr-willis | triplc: what old item | 13:20 |
|---|
| antihero | hello, rebooted and Keyboard and Mouse still do not work | 13:21 |

| CameronM | im following the directions on here, http://www.ubuntu-unleashed.com/2008/04/howto-crack-rar-7z-and-zip-files-with.html , and when i get to "tar xvjf rarcrack-0.2.tar.bz2" it says no such file or directory | 13:21 |
|---|
| triplc | dr-willis: old items: "chromium" (which is not installed) and a lot of "wine" items | 13:21 |
|---|
| ikonia | CameronM: sorry, not helping you with that, | 13:21 |
|---|
| usr13 | caravel: I find it interesting that it says Unable to load file '/etc/gdm/custom.conf I don't know what that is all about, but may need to run gdmsetup or something. | 13:21 |
|---|
| dr-willis | CameronM: check spelling of filename and your wieking dir | 13:21 |
|---|
| ikonia | CameronM: cracking security/encyprtion isn't something we support | 13:22 |
|---|
| CameronM | ikonia: its my file, not someone elses.. | 13:22 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | of course it is | 13:22 |
|---|
| usr13 | caravel: What video driver are you using? | 13:22 |
|---|
| ikonia | CameronM: it's not something we support | 13:22 |
|---|
| damno | dr-willis: I dont know why my vdo recording is stopping mid ways.. may be because the audio input device specified isn't right... but I dont really need audio | 13:22 |
|---|
| usr13 | caravel: Do you have /etc/X11/xorg.conf file? | 13:22 |
|---|
| CameronM | Gentoo64: in all seriousness, it is, i passworded the .rar file probably 6-8 years ago, and i cant remember the password i used. | 13:22 |
|---|
| LjL | CameronM: that's because the file is not there to download | 13:23 |
|---|
| dr-willis | triplc: wine stuff is in some. sub dir. no idea in the other. run alacarte perhaps and remive it | 13:23 |
|---|
| LjL | CameronM: wget returns a 404 (file not found) error | 13:23 |
|---|
| caravel | usr13: note: for these logs I was also running ssh -X to investogate stuff. Hopefully I just managed to obtain a fresh HANG :) let me reset, and grab a new set of log files | 13:23 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | CameronM- do you have windows? | 13:23 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | and an nvidia card? | 13:23 |
|---|
| CameronM | Gentoo64: not at the house, i took windows outa this household, and yep nvid | 13:23 |
|---|
| dns53 | CameronM there are password crackers for rar and zip files that brute force the password but i have not used them | 13:23 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | theres one called crark that uses nvidia cuda | 13:24 |
|---|
| Doodad | new to ubuntu, everything is running slower than it was in vista, feels like its running in a VM not direct... i suspected a virus/rootkit on vista, why i installed ubuntu, could a rootkit virtualise an installation of ubuntu and survive? | 13:24 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | does like millions a second brute force | 13:24 |
|---|
| antihero | anyone? | 13:24 |
|---|
| bazhang | !ot | 13:24 |
|---|
| triplc | dr-willis: okay... i run alacarte and successfully remove 'chromium'.. but not those 'wine' items | 13:24 |

| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 13:24 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | Doodad- its very unlikely | 13:24 |
|---|
| theadmin | Doodad: No. Did you install Ubuntu via WUBI? | 13:24 |
|---|
| theadmin | Doodad: If so, there's your reason. | 13:24 |
|---|
| Doodad | via a CD | 13:24 |
|---|
| ikonia | Doodad: why do you suspect a rootkit ? | 13:24 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | because hes new to linux | 13:24 |
|---|
| Doodad | not even if it was a BIOS level rootkit | 13:24 |
|---|
| theadmin | Doodad: Well, did you boot from the CD? Or use the Windows installer? | 13:24 |
|---|
| ikonia | Doodad: a root kit is unlikley to decrease performance | 13:25 |
|---|
| Doodad | from the CD | 13:25 |
|---|
| theadmin | Doodad: Okay, good. You do have a swap partition, right? | 13:25 |
|---|
| Doodad | the rootkit would have entered the box via windows a while ago | 13:25 |
|---|
| ikonia | it's most likley the video card is not configured | 13:25 |
|---|
| Doodad | yes, swap as well as | 13:25 |
|---|
| ikonia | Doodad: when running ubuntu - your windows partition has no effect | 13:25 |
|---|
| Doodad | but a rootkit can be running above the OS right? | 13:26 |
|---|
| Doodad | both OS's | 13:26 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | Doodad- from my exerience, windows can feel snappier than linux on slower pcs | 13:26 |
|---|
| ikonia | Doodad: no | 13:26 |
|---|
| Doodad | virtualising both windows, and ubuntu | 13:26 |
|---|
| ikonia | Doodad: it's most likley your video card is just not configured correct | 13:26 |
|---|
| ikonia | Doodad: you're virtualising ??? | 13:26 |
|---|
| Doodad | depending on what you load | 13:26 |
|---|
| ikonia | Doodad: why did you say it feels like it's running in a virtual machine.... it IS running in a virtual machine | 13:27 |
|---|
| Doodad | no, but isn't what a rootkit does, virtualise the OS so the OS cannot see its existence behind the scenes | 13:27 |
|---|
| usr13 | Gentoo64: Depends on what version of MS Windows you are talking about. Vista or Win7, no. XP, or b4, maybe and yes. | 13:27 |
|---|
| ikonia | Doodad: you're not making any sense | 13:27 |
|---|
| Doodad | ikonia i am not virtualising | 13:27 |
|---|
| ikonia | Doodad: right - so please stop making statements you don't understand/incorrect | 13:27 |
|---|
| ikonia | Doodad: just explain the problem you are seeing | 13:27 |
|---|
| ikonia | factually | 13:27 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | usr13- windows xp yes, much snappier than xubuntu on my downstairs comp | 13:27 |
|---|
| Doodad | vista | 13:28 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | not tried 7 on it | 13:28 |
|---|
| SeventhDimension | is there a command that shows info about the cpu? | 13:28 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | SeventhDimension- cat /proc/cpuinfo | 13:28 |
|---|
| bazhang | Gentoo64, usr13 could we please get back on topic | 13:28 |
|---|
| usr13 | Gentoo64: When you do, you will see. | 13:28 |
|---|
| ikonia | Doodad: vista is nothing to do with ubuntu - please state the ubuntu problem you are having | 13:28 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | bazhang- no i was trying to explain to him it could be that | 13:28 |
|---|
| Doodad | also, i am prepared to accept video drivers could be an issue, i am just asking about the nature of rootkits here and possibilities, i need to work out whether a complete wipe is necessary, including removing the bios battery | 13:29 |
|---|
| bazhang | Gentoo64, and venturing too far afield. | 13:29 |
|---|
| ikonia | Doodad: that is not an ubuntu issue - sorry | 13:29 |
|---|
| Doodad | ikonia: read up | 13:29 |
|---|
| bazhang | Doodad, no, not necessary, also not possible | 13:29 |
|---|
| Doodad | its possible it was dwemonstrated in 2009 | 13:29 |
|---|
| dr-willis | remove battery - that is paranoid. :) | 13:29 |
|---|
| ikonia | bazhang: I've given up, this guy seems obssessed with a root kit he has no idea about | 13:30 |
|---|
| bazhang | ikonia, agreed | 13:30 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | Doodad- i think you're getting too paranoid coming from windows | 13:30 |
|---|
| ikonia | Doodad: this isn't an ubuntu issue - we are not going to support you discussing bios rootkits | 13:30 |
|---|
| Doodad | k | 13:30 |
|---|
| antihero | Any ideas why my mouse/keyboard are simply not working? | 13:30 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | Doodad, You may wish to have a look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=338 | 13:30 |
|---|
| Doodad | feels a little like ikonia is out of depth here, so claims i dont understand what im talking about and to stfunoob | 13:30 |
|---|
| bazhang | Doodad, please stop | 13:31 |
|---|
| yeats | Doodad: it's just that you're seeing a performance issue and you're concluding that it's likely that you have a rootkit installed - that's very unlikely | 13:32 |

| ubottu | ubunta: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 13:37 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | theadmin, Perhaps, I have however seen many win folks that just don't "get" the diff. in security between *nix and win. I usually send them to that security discussion. It's all encompassing. :-) | 13:37 |
|---|
| ubunta | Sure bro ;) | 13:38 |
|---|
| theadmin | ubunta: Ask your question | 13:39 |

| Benkinooby | hi, i use firefox 3.6.18 and ubuntu 10.04 when opening several webistes with many pictures or flash stuff firefox get's incredible slow and unresponsive (even for closing tabs again) in the same time only 25% of my RAM and 60% of my CPU are consumed. my system reacts normally, but just firefox seems to stand on it's onw feet. anyone knows that problem and/or the reason or better a fix | 13:40 |
|---|
| dougl | Every time my ubuntu 10.10 screen saver comes on my compiz effects get turned off and my GLX dock (cairo dock with open GL) gets messed up... does anyone have any suggestions for these symptoms? | 13:40 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | dougl- disable the screensaver | 13:41 |
|---|
| dougl | Gentoo64, was thinking that... will my screen still blank? | 13:41 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | yes | 13:41 |
|---|
| dougl | Gentoo64, hey thans for the tip = I will try it | 13:41 |
|---|
| ubunta | Anyone For My probem With BusyBox13.3 ? | 13:42 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | Benkinooby, I'm sorry I can't answer your question, as an aside, I'm using the exact FF ver and 10.04 with no lag problems. The only thing I might suggest is that you run "memtest" from boot and see if anything abnormal turns up. | 13:43 |
|---|
| valentinex | My sounds are not working with Intel 945 board builtin sound card | 13:44 |
|---|
| bazhang | !audio | valentinex please have a read | 13:44 |
|---|
| ubottu | valentinex please have a read: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 13:44 |
|---|
| Benkinooby | Sidewinder1, i'll try that at chance... but other programs, with equal or more load, run w/o problems, or slow down the whole system... but firefox does neither use all cpu nor all ram and still is very slow... :( | 13:44 |
|---|
| bazhang | Benkinooby, got flashblock installed? worth a try | 13:45 |
|---|
| Benkinooby | bazhang, adblock adn noscript | 13:45 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | Benkinooby- i dont think its bad ram, that wont actually mkae things slow itll just error randomly | 13:45 |
|---|
| Benkinooby | bazhang, but sites w/o flash but lot's of pics are totally slow too | 13:46 |
|---|
| ShawnRisk | I am getting an error when I wakeup my laptop: over charge change on port 1 or port 2. Any ideas on how to fix? | 13:46 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | Benkinooby, If memtest works with no problems, you might back-up your bookmarks (and passwords), then completely remove FF; then reinstall. | 13:46 |
|---|
| pythonirc101 | has anyone used clonezilla here? | 13:47 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | Benkinooby, I have adblock plus and noscript as well. | 13:47 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | Benkinooby- do what Sidewinder1 said, just reinstall and remove all your old profiles etc | 13:47 |
|---|
| Benkinooby | Gentoo64, that's my thought too... but i am really confused by the abnormal behaviour of firefox.. so i'm ready to loko at everything | 13:47 |
|---|
| bazhang | pythonirc101, check their support forums. | 13:47 |
|---|
| ubunta | IF My problem With BusyBox13.3 Is unsolved Please Tell Me so i stop Searching ;) ;) ;) | 13:47 |
|---|
| raptor67682 | Hello, | 13:47 |
|---|
| Benkinooby | Sidewinder1, Gentoo64 hm... ok... jsut for understanding, what could change? i'll get the same binaries | 13:48 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | Benkinooby- but removing your ff profile can solve all sorts of issues | 13:48 |
|---|
| yeats | ubunta: you should be getting an error message when you're thrown into BusyBox - are you getting one? | 13:48 |
|---|
| raptor67682 | who knows how to make the rom work using HATARI of international_karate_+_(1988)(system_3)[cr_replicants]-atarist.zip (you can google it to get), ? it says BUMP | 13:48 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | you dont need to reinstall just remove the profile | 13:48 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | Benkinooby, I can't give you all of that; just try it; after backing-up. Can't hurt. :-) | 13:48 |
|---|
| ubunta | @yeats Nops ;) No Error Just the initframs console | 13:49 |
|---|
| tabakhase | installing windows to a empty partition, reboot wuth livecd, chroot, reinstall grub . should work like that without anny problems hm? | 13:49 |
|---|
| Benkinooby | Gentoo64, ok... so that would be ./mozilla/firefox/randomletters.default ? | 13:49 |
|---|
| ShawnRisk | any thoughts on my question? | 13:49 |
|---|
| Benkinooby | Gentoo64, Sidewinder1 ok... so that would be ./mozilla/firefox/randomletters.default ? | 13:49 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | Benkinooby- i think so yes. but i havent used ff in a long time actually | 13:50 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | Benkinooby, Use Synaptic to completely remove rather than trying to delete files, IMHO. | 13:50 |
|---|
| yeats | ubunta: without more details about what's going on, there's not a lot of help anyone can provide - looks like you're aware of common reasons for getting put into BusyBox | 13:50 |
|---|
| SeventhDimension | Gentoo64: thanks | 13:50 |
|---|
| Benkinooby | Sidewinder1, ok.. for that i have to use purge istead of remove | 13:51 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | Gentoo64, I don't mean to conflict with your advice. :-) I can only advise how I've done things that worked in the past. | 13:51 |
|---|
| fowl | wheres the config for GCC | 13:52 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | Purge? | 13:52 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | Sidewinder1- sudo apt-get remove --purge firefox | 13:52 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | Benkinooby, So, you're doing this from term. with apt-get? | 13:52 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | then delete all the profiles etc all firefox stuff | 13:52 |
|---|
| Benkinooby | Sidewinder1, remove only removes the files but leaves the configs... purge is total annihilation :) | 13:52 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | and reinstall | 13:52 |
|---|
| Benkinooby | Gentoo64, ok | 13:52 |
|---|
| ubunta | @yeats: this happened after a fsck ( with another linux distro in another partition | 13:53 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | purge wont remove everything | 13:53 |
|---|
| Benkinooby | ok | 13:53 |
|---|
| * Sidewinder1 Hangs his head; he doesn't use terminal (much) and loves Synaptic. | 13:53 |
| Benkinooby | Gentoo64, Sidewinder1 does one of you know at chance a program to monitor my graphic card use... like htop for my system? | 13:53 |
|---|
| krux | ew synaptic | 13:53 |
|---|
| ubunta | @yeats or maybe disk check | 13:54 |
|---|
| yeats | ubunta: can you provide more details about what you did? step-by-step? | 13:54 |
|---|
| ubunta | Private please bro, | 13:54 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | Benkinooby- not sure actually | 13:54 |
|---|
| ubunta | ?? | 13:54 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | Synaptic=Idiot-proof. I plead guilty. | 13:54 |
|---|
| yeats | ubunta: I only work in the channel - sorry ;-) | 13:54 |
|---|
| * Sidewinder1 Loves Synaptic 'cause he has problems with syntax. | 13:55 |
| Gentoo64 | Sidewinder1- nothing wrong with using synaptic | 13:55 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | :s | 13:56 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | ;D | 13:56 |
|---|
| ubunta | @yeats i made an fsck or something that checks for disk sectors and all ... it was going to take a very long time ... like it didn't want to stop checking sectors and all .. so i stopped it ! it was mainly for a problem with a colored screen when booting to the sgn in (sometimes) | 13:56 |
|---|
| meyyappan | how to idm in ubuntu | 13:57 |
|---|
| meyyappan | install idm in ubuntu | 13:57 |
|---|
| yeats | ubunta: if you're multibooting (which is what it sounds like), can you boot into any of the other options? | 13:57 |
|---|
| bazhang | meyyappan, what is that | 13:57 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | Gentoo64, Actually, I've done alot in terminal (good thing), but mostly copy-paste of commands fully defined and explained, in "the forums" (not necessairlly a bad thing, but...). | 13:58 |
|---|
| dr-willis | !info idm | 13:58 |
|---|
| ubottu | Package idm does not exist in natty | 13:58 |
|---|
| Lasers | gdm? | 13:58 |
|---|
| Lasers | xdm? kdm? | 13:58 |
|---|
| yeats | ubunta: (and for future reference - don't stop a fsck or similar process ;-) ) | 13:58 |
|---|
| Lasers | Oh wait. He must meant ldm? | 13:58 |
|---|
| ubunta | @yeats : i'm in a whole other partition but i can boot documents ( mount ) from the ubuntu disk | 13:58 |
|---|
| dr-willis | !info ldm | 13:59 |
|---|
| ubottu | ldm (source: ldm): LTSP display manager. In component main, is optional. Version 2:2.2.1-0ubuntu1 (natty), package size 90 kB, installed size 656 kB | 13:59 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | Sidewinder1- it doesnt take long to learn the basic commands. you hardly even need to touch terminal for general use really | 13:59 |
|---|
| ubunta | @yeats : say sorry from me to ubuntu :(:( | 13:59 |
|---|
| fowl | wheres the config for GCC anybody know? anybody? trying to set things like -fPIC | 13:59 |
|---|
| caravel | Could anyone please drive me ? I've reproduced the hang but obviously don't know what I should be searching for in what log file :( | 14:00 |
|---|
| caravel | (seems like there isn't a single line logged) | 14:00 |
|---|
| caravel | (around the time of the hang, I mean) | 14:01 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | caravel- you could try dmesg | 14:01 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | but not sure if anything will come up for a hang | 14:01 |
|---|
| caravel | Gentoo64: started with it :/ | 14:01 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | caravel, Have you looked in /var/log? | 14:01 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | a "hang" wont always be logged | 14:01 |
|---|
| caravel | Sidewinder1: yeah :) | 14:01 |
|---|
| yeats | ubunta: if I were you, I would boot into a live CD (or another Linux distro on your machine if you have one) and run fsck again (and let it finish) | 14:01 |
|---|
| Janine | can anyone help me with this? http://pastebin.com/py00MRS9 | 14:01 |
|---|
| ShawnRisk | I am getting an error when I wakeup my laptop: over charge change on port 1 or port 2. Any ideas on how to fix? | 14:02 |
|---|
| caravel | Could a graphic adapter issue, just hang the system without letting anything logged ? | 14:02 |
|---|
| Sidewinder1 | caravel, Nvidia? | 14:03 |
|---|
| Benkinooby | Sidewinder1, Gentoo64 ok, i will purge and reinstall FF + make sure my profiles are deleted (+backed up) - thx for the hints... if it does not work, i'll report back... can't do it now... :( | 14:03 |
|---|
| tabakhase | hm, dualboot on a usb stick? | 14:03 |
|---|
| fowl | whats up, where are GCC options at in ubuntu? they wouldnt be in /etc named intuitively, no, not that, anyways i can't find it for dick squat can someone help | 14:03 |

| Gentoo64 | Benkinooby- ok | 14:03 |
|---|
| yeats | Janine: can you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list file? | 14:04 |
|---|
| Gentoo64 | Benkinooby- i was looking for gpu monitor too only found one sort of for nvidia though | 14:04 |
|---|

| ElTimo | I keep running into a problem with wubi. Whenever I try to run it from a CD, it feels the need to redownload the iso. | 15:29 |
|---|
| ElTimo | I have limited bandwidth, so this simply isn't an option for me. | 15:30 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: I strongly suggest you install traditionally (non-wubi) | 15:30 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: I'm hesitant to install normally. This laptop has Optimus, and I want to see if I can get bumblebee to work properly before I do anything permanent. | 15:30 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: I have no idea what Optimus and bumblebee is. Try running the liveCD to see if they work? | 15:31 |
|---|
| groktar | i think i answered my question | 15:31 |
|---|
| BluesKaj | ElTimo, wubi is supposed to be run from your hdd , wubi installs ubuntu to it so you just choose it at the menu | 15:32 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: I tried to do it, but ubuntu hangs at the loading screen. | 15:32 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: Is this a liveCD or a liveUSB Do you get any error messages when / before it hangs. | 15:32 |
|---|
| ElTimo | BluesKaj: I figured since it's included on the LiveCD it would use the local files though. | 15:32 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: Press escape during boot to see more info | 15:32 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: LiveUSB, and no. | 15:32 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: Can you describe the hang? | 15:33 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: Oh I was trying to switch VT's lol. Hold on. | 15:33 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: That was a good thought too | 15:33 |

| ElTimo | brb | 15:33 |

| mongy | maalac, its probably windows doesnt recognise the cryptsetup way of encryption.. you might need to use something more crss platform like truecrypt | 15:34 |

| maalac | mongy: is that a good encryption ? | 15:34 |
|---|
| mongy | maalac, from what ive heard... its as good as cryptsetup | 15:35 |

| ElTimo | Ok I'm back. | 15:35 |

| hoopjumping | Hi, I got a host of issues with my OS so far that I hopefully can fix. 1: Last week i was asking about fstab, which I could make neither head nor tail of. I wanted to use it to tell ubuntu that my music folder is on another hard drive it doesn't automount. People said "Oh use fstab to point it to it." but I didn't find the tutorials far too complex and told me more information than I needed. I found that I could do it through | 15:40 |
|---|
| hoopjumping | banshee, by using a menu (shock horror that not everything is done in command line. I know, heritic I am) to point it to the correct folder. It now loads up my music on startup. My immediate question is this: THe unity sidebar on the left is very annoying when I'm zoomed in and trying to read a webpage for it to pop up all the time. How can I move it to the top of the bottom? | 15:40 |

| ElTimo | edbian: http://pastebin.com/UuNLRX0p | 15:40 |

| Grey_Loki | Hi, i'm running the latest Ubuntu Server (11.04), fully patched. It seems when I leave rtorrent running (with rtorrentweb, i'm not sure if that's a contributing factor or not), after a certain period of time, the machine stops responding to ssh login requests. It still responds to ping, and the apache server is still running (it serves web requests to its IP), I just can't login through SSH. Where can I look to start diagn | 15:40 |
|---|
| edbian | hoopjumping: Have you read this one? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab | 15:40 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: Oh and I forgot to mention that the fan starts running like crazy once it hangs. | 15:40 |
|---|
| ikonia | hoopjumping: you'll get much better responses if you just ask your question rather htan a 10 line ranting statement | 15:41 |
|---|
| Keegans | hoopjumping have you tried making a link from the current folder to the drive? | 15:41 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: You have intel graphics? | 15:41 |
|---|
| hoopjumping | edbian: yes, that's the tutorial I was given, the one I found too confusuing. Keegans: I fixed it. | 15:41 |
|---|
| S4nD3r_ | It's upgraded in http://pastebin.com/kBHHkkxx | 15:41 |
|---|
| edbian | hoopjumping: oh btw, you cannot move the unity bar right now | 15:42 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: Yeah. Intel and Nvidia. That's what Optimus is. It switches video cards depending on load. | 15:42 |
|---|
| Keegans | oh well nvm | 15:42 |

| ThePendulum | Greetings. Can someone please inform why exactly Gnome Classic is unsupported in Ubuntu 11.10, even though they know many users truly dislike this? Thank you! | 15:42 |

| makara | politics | 15:42 |
|---|
| hoopjumping | For those complaining of TL:DR. Edbian: Can I disable it then? I have the same ubuntu version on a laptop with a mirage s3 graphics chipset, and that uses a gnome menu with the bars on the top. | 15:42 |
|---|
| Keegans | ThePendulum: its the future? | 15:42 |

| ElTimo | edbian: I have whatever's attached to the Core i7 and a Geforce 525m | 15:42 |

| ElTimo | edbian: Oh. Escape doesn't do anything. | 15:43 |
|---|
| edbian | hoopjumping: log out, click your name, change the session, log in | 15:43 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: Well escape makes the splash go away. Do the num / caps lock keys make the lights change (proof themachine is not frozen) | 15:43 |
|---|
| ThePendulum | Keegans: Not sure if the future lays in an ugly interface | 15:44 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | hey | 15:44 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | I have a slight problem | 15:44 |
|---|
| Keegans | ThePendulum: I agree but since Apple is going that way we all have to | 15:44 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: That's a major problem. I don't have num/caps lock lights so I can't tell if it's panicking. | 15:44 |
|---|
| Keegans | ThePendulum: I use the classic style as well so I agree with you wholeheartedly | 15:44 |

|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | Are there like a bash script or such? | 15:45 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: Is the screen showing those errors and just stuck there? | 15:45 |
|---|
| hoopjumping | Edbian: Thanks, I'll do that in a bit. I don't mind the menu, but it's position is intrusive. I have issues, and I'm wondering if anyone else has this: Copy and paste keyboard shortcuts do not always work. If In firefox, if I have highlighted text, it'll not show up unless I right click and use copy instead. I would prefer to press ctrl+C as the right click menu takes five-ten seconds to load | 15:45 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | I'm using a bash script to run my Minecraft server since it won't let me change permissions either, similar solution here? | 15:45 |
|---|
| ElTimo | TehAndrewRyan: You can make a script that has `wine /path/to/steam.exe ` somewhere in it, I think. | 15:45 |
|---|
| ikonia | makara: explain the issue please ? | 15:45 |
|---|
| ThePendulum | Keegans: I noticed Windows 8 looks similar. I hate the future. What's left? | 15:45 |

| Keegans | ElTimo: ?? | 15:46 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | ElTimo: or actually, I think I got it working | 15:47 |
|---|
| makara | ikonia: how would I know? it picks up the wireless networks in the area when I plug it in | 15:47 |
|---|
| ThePendulum | serene: You can use Windows --> Recently Closed Docks | 15:47 |
|---|
| * eMyller is a kde user, and recommends it to ThePendulum | 15:47 |
| ikonia | makara: that's a reasonable test, | 15:47 |

|---|
| Grey_Loki | This could be related to my issue - when I create a new bash prompt (in a new screen, using the byobu..wrapper?), i'm given this prompt: loki@lokiserver:(unreachable)/$ | 15:47 |

|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | Using Ubuntu 10.10 | 15:54 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: sure, but you mentioned having to do that the time it worked. This implies that you don't have to press F12 everytime. (It's confusing me. Is pressing F12 significant in the laptops ability to boot?) | 15:54 |

| dr_willis | blumaa, has it ever worked.. did it work on the live cd.. you did double check the mixers and are sure its not just muted... | 15:55 |

| ElTimo | edbian: Oh sorry. No, that's what I have to do to get it to boot from USB. | 15:55 |

| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 15:55 |

| Herakles | help! Hi there, I have some issues with the Softwarecenter, it can´t find the install media... (DVD) see my Paste...http://paste.ubuntu.com/665080/ | 15:56 |

| hoopjumping | Hi, back again, this time with my gnome menu (thanks Edbian) But now my desktop zoom doesn't work. I can't find compiz in my menus, but I know I have it. | 15:56 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: one common thing. Check the drives using windows | 15:56 |
|---|
| edbian | hoopjumping: did you install ccsm ? | 15:56 |
|---|
| makara | ikonia: My notebook is already connected to the wifi through its own wireless adaptor. What are we trying to prove here? | 15:56 |
|---|
| jarot | hi .. | 15:56 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: You mean the usb drive? | 15:56 |
|---|
| ikonia | makara: as I said 60 seconds ago - trying to prove that your card works under 10.04 | 15:56 |
|---|
| jarot | hello .. | 15:56 |

| TehAndrewRyan | This page is pretty much teh same issues that I have http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1596672 | 15:57 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | No answers there though | 15:57 |
|---|
| ikonia | makara: disable your wireless card through network manager, and use the usb device to connect to the network | 15:57 |
|---|
| makara | ikonia: its not a card, its a usb device | 15:57 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | So can anyone here help? | 15:57 |
|---|
| hoopjumping | edbian: I have CCSM | 15:57 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: sometimes when the partitions are dirty or have errors ubuntu doesn't boot. (or boot irradcially). You could also (to save time) pop the hdd out for a second and boot with no hdd | 15:57 |
|---|
| ikonia | makara: there is a card in your notebook - stop getting smart with me | 15:57 |
|---|
| makara | ikonia: how do disable the card? | 15:57 |
|---|
| edbian | hoopjumping: System -> Preferences -> | 15:57 |

| vsync | kingofswords why would you want to use gentoo? | 15:58 |

| kingofswords | ikonia, thx | 15:58 |
|---|
| kingofswords | just curious | 15:59 |
|---|
| makara | Hi. Would really appreciate if someone could advise what my next investigative step might be. Problem detailed here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11145836#post11145836 | 15:59 |
|---|
| kingofswords | read it was alot faster | 15:59 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: Odd. The pre-boot assessment just popped up. | 15:59 |
|---|
| vsync | kingofswords well, depends | 15:59 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: the bios post? | 15:59 |
|---|
| hoopjumping | edbian: thanks, that's all sorted. now. I'm gonna reboot into windows and figure out what's up with my right mouse button (programmable mouse is acting funny in windows and linux) | 15:59 |
|---|
| ikonia | vsync: discuss it in #gentoo please - not here | 15:59 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: No. Dell's hardware test program that they install on a separate partition of the HDD. | 15:59 |
|---|
| kingofswords | vsync, is it only a little faster...i get alot of freezes with gnome and cairo dock | 15:59 |
|---|
| vsync | kingofswords the packages are a bit outdated, you have to manually compile _everything_, and to make it fast, you have to know exactly WHAT you want from the packages. | 16:00 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: mmm, strange | 16:00 |
|---|
| ikonia | kingofswords: vsync - I'll only say it one more time - discuss in #gentoo - NOT here | 16:00 |
|---|
| vsync | chill bro | 16:00 |
|---|
| kingofswords | yeh sorry | 16:01 |

| ikonia | vsync: no - I've warned you once, and you've ignored it, now I'm making it perfectly clear. stop. | 16:01 |
|---|
| SamuraiAlba | ok. I want Kung Pao Bacon... | 16:01 |
|---|
| oCean | SamuraiAlba: stop that sillyness | 16:01 |
|---|
| vsync | i was typing in mid-sentence when i saw that, now let's not make such a big deal about it | 16:01 |
|---|
| ikonia | SamuraiAlba: the topic of this channel is ubuntu support only. Please keep to that | 16:01 |
|---|
| ikonia | vsync: so "delete" it the key you press | 16:01 |
|---|
| kingofswords | to be far it is ubuntu as i only wanna know the differences between 2 os | 16:01 |

| bullgard6 | sherorox: Take a Ubuntu Live CD and check your computer's hardware for functionality. | 16:10 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: Hold on, I have an idea. | 16:10 |
|---|
| sherorox | bullgard6: it works because I can use BIOS commands | 16:10 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: holding | 16:10 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: I'm gonna go grab an arch stick and see if that boots. | 16:11 |

| edbian | ElTimo: :) | 16:11 |

| groktar | um, i might have fixed it ikonia. i feel dumb right now | 16:11 |

|---|
| blumaa | how do i get that? | 16:12 |
|---|
| blumaa | is that what I need? | 16:12 |
|---|
| groktar | solution was "mv /etc/keepalived/keepalive.conf /etc/keepalived/keepalived.conf". I literally just slapped myself across the face | 16:12 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | blumaa: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y --reinstall install alsa-base alsa-utils; killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.pulse* may help | 16:13 |

| groktar | i was typing the filename in the top of the pastebin and said "wait, that isn't right..." | 16:13 |

| WiCkD1 | Anyone tried using the PPC ubuntu on a G4 powerbook? | 16:13 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: ok | 16:13 |
|---|
| bullgard6 | sherorox: If the BIOS works, try to obtain error messages and report them completely, for analysis | 16:13 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: Not sure why it's not booting. I see other reports of that error and again they can boot anyways | 16:13 |
|---|
| edbian | I"m not sure | 16:13 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | WiCkD1: I've used it in live CD | 16:14 |
|---|
| dr_willis | WiCkD1, ive had very bad experiences with PPC Linux and PPC Ubuntu.. I dont even own a ppc mac any more.. all i can say is.. good luck. | 16:14 |
|---|
| blumaa | so after i run that in the terminal.... what should I do? Reboot? | 16:14 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: I can try using an actual CD, though I doubt that'll help much. | 16:14 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: agreed | 16:14 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: Hmm. An idea is floating around in my head, but it seems dumb. | 16:15 |
|---|
| sherorox | bullgard6: I have no error messages. The keyboard works, I just can't get ubuntu to recognize it all of a sudden. Its weird how it just started going into the bootloader | 16:15 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | WiCkD1: why do you ask? | 16:15 |
|---|
| edbian | ElTimo: what is it? | 16:15 |
|---|
| WiCkD1 | yeah Ill try livecd first. I have an old 17" powerbook g4..while its a nice machine, I figured I can get better use out of it with a linux distro. | 16:15 |

| edbian | :D | 16:16 |
|---|
| ElTimo | edbian: That's how I roll. | 16:16 |
|---|
| dr_willis | ElTimo, that metod may just do a 'live-cd type setup' which is most likely not what you want. | 16:16 |
|---|
| felix_da_catz | Herakles: What do you need? | 16:17 |
|---|
| sudipta | I have a problem......how to see the manuals of write().....not write utility | 16:17 |

| Keegans | sandyeggoboy: You'll need to find the vdi file. Copy that to the new host. Then on the new host create a new virtual machine, specify the hard drive rather than making a new one, specify the same memory etc and you should be mostly good to go | 16:35 |

| Sadin | hi everyone my ubuntu desktop is running 11.04 and i cant use multiple moniters because the background wont redraw when i move windows around this is very frustrating im using a card with ati radeon x300, i tried sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-radeon but that did nothing multiple moniters still wont redraw my background. i tried using aditional drivers to search for one but nothing was found any ideas guys? | 16:35 |
|---|
| Herakles | petsounds, http://paste.ubuntu.com/665080/ | 16:35 |

| Keegans | sandyeggoboy: I used that method to move from a mac host to a Ubuntu host | 16:35 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Sadin, try a window manager/desktop other then unity as a test. Ive heard unity has some issues with multi-monitors.. BUT it sounds like an ATI driver issue to me. | 16:36 |
|---|
| blumaa | any more ideas blueskaj? | 16:36 |
|---|
| raluca | secondly I would like to install it on a logical partition on my extended partition but from that wizzard I can't. On my primary partion I have Windows and my frist logical partion is for it, too. on my second logica partion I would like to install os x, and I created a logical ext3 for ubuntu and a swap partion. I would like to install ubuntu only on these last two partitions and not mix it... | 16:36 |
|---|
| raluca | ...with the windows partition. when I try to choose the ext3 and hit INSTALL button it says something that the selected partition doesn't contain boot information and don't let me to continue. | 16:36 |
|---|
| Sadin | dr_willis i think its an ATi driver issue too i will try a different window manager though i hope thats not the issue i really like unity/gnome | 16:37 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Sadin, but i also just tend to put stuff on the 2nd monitor and fullscreen the app. :) so the background rarely matters to me. | 16:37 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Sadin, you are in the minority on that :) | 16:37 |
|---|
| BluesKaj | blumaa, in the terminal , copy and paste this , sudo lshw -C sound | 16:37 |
|---|
| Sadin | dr_willis i know im not running ubuntu with the unity bar im running ubuntu-classic mode upon login :) | 16:37 |
|---|
| rumpe1 | raluca, have you put the flag for / on the linux-partition? | 16:38 |
|---|
| dr_willis | Sadin, so you like unity even tho youa re not useing it... :) | 16:38 |
|---|
| raluca | i think i didn't :D | 16:38 |
|---|
| Herakles | theadmin, which channel do i join to get access to some Ubuntu-channels im banned from ? | 16:39 |
|---|
| the-penguin | Sadin, which graphics card do you have? | 16:39 |
|---|
| raluca | so i have to boot with the gparted and add this flag? | 16:39 |
|---|
| blumaa | blueskaj..... did that, now what? | 16:39 |
|---|
| rumpe1 | raluca, no.. .you must specify, which partiton is for / (and maybe swap) | 16:39 |
|---|
| Sadin | dr_willis well im not using unity is what im getting at so would that rule out the possibility of needing another window manager or is it still technically unity... | 16:39 |

|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | Can I add it in there somehow? Because I can't execute files from that drive | 17:06 |
|---|
| escott | TehAndrewRyan, it wouldn't be. they are auto-mounted but not listed in fstab | 17:06 |
|---|
| OmegaLimit | The GUI is called NVIDIA X Server Settings | 17:06 |
|---|
| newbie22 | OK, I download and try to boot from 10.04 | 17:06 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | Though it worked in 10.04 | 17:06 |
|---|
| blumaa | okay... did that. now what? | 17:06 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | escott: Can I do something else which makes me able to execute files from it then? | 17:06 |
|---|
| escott | TehAndrewRyan, when it is plugged in use blkid to identify the uuid and add a line for that uuid to your fstab | 17:06 |
|---|
| the-penguin | OmegaLimit, try setting all the settings with that, then hitting the auto detect button in System>Preferences>Monitors | 17:07 |
|---|
| dr_willis | TehAndrewRyan: what sort of files are you trying to execute? You can mount ntfs/vfat with specific options to make every file have the execute bit set.. but thats often very annoying. | 17:07 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | escott: Do I type blkid in the terminal? | 17:07 |
|---|
| escott | TehAndrewRyan, yes | 17:07 |
|---|
| the-penguin | blumaa, execute alsamixer, and see if all the bars are turned up. | 17:07 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | dr_willis: No executable files at all works, neither .sh nor .exe | 17:07 |
|---|
| OmegaLimit | the-penguin: I can't get System>Preferences>Monitors to detect the other screen at all | 17:08 |
|---|
| dr_willis | TehAndrewRyan: for .exe you could use 'wine path/to/the/whatever.exe' | 17:08 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | escott: Nothing happens | 17:08 |
|---|
| blumaa | how do i execute alsamixer? | 17:08 |
|---|
| dr_willis | TehAndrewRyan: for .sh you could do sh /path/to/the/whatever.sh | 17:08 |
|---|
| the-penguin | OmegaLimit, okay, so that means that your system isn't detecting it, which is why it's not working | 17:08 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | dr_willis: Yes I've made a bash script for that | 17:08 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | dr_willis: But not yet with my .exe | 17:08 |
|---|
| the-penguin | blumaa, in a terminal type <alsamixer> | 17:08 |
|---|
| OmegaLimit | But the NVIDIA X Server is | 17:08 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | dr_willis: So what do I type? just 'wine path/to/the/whatever.exe' in a .sh file and then launch it in the terminal? | 17:09 |
|---|
| the-penguin | OmegaLimit, .... that's just weird/interesting... let me think for a sec | 17:09 |
|---|
| blumaa | cannot open mixer: No such file or directory | 17:09 |
|---|
| blumaa | that is the result i get | 17:09 |
|---|
| dr_willis | TehAndrewRyan: .exe are by default assoucaed with some 'safe launcher' that for some ubuntu crazyness they have decided that a .exe needs to be 'exectable' to be flagged as 'safe' to run.. i dont get the logic myself... | 17:09 |
|---|
| escott | TehAndrewRyan, blkid should print out things like /dev/sda1 UUID="1234-5678-blah-blah" | 17:09 |
|---|
| TehAndrewRyan | dr_willis: The thing is, when I try to flag it as executable it reverts back. I can't change permissions for files on the drive | 17:09 |
|---|
| dr_willis | TehAndrewRyan: just wine /path/to/the/exectable.exe' no 'sh' file needed... unles syou want to make some alias/easy way to repeate it. | 17:10 |
|---|
| escott | TehAndrewRyan, most likely it is mounted users and therefore noexec | 17:10 |
|---|
| ParkerR | Redesigned my desktop http://i.imgur.com/z6BEA.jpg | 17:10 |
|---|
| the-penguin | blumaa, is the installation (the command i gave you before) done? | 17:10 |
|---|
