[00:00] <Lint> but obscure illegible command lines are
[00:00] <j0hndoe> My laptop spec is 1.8 Ghz / 384 Mb RAM / 764 Mb SWAP, on certain occasion my CPU would reach 100% even though I have 1 to 3 open programs with around 200 Mb of RAM used. I think, maybe it has to be with swap, so I'm thinking of reducing it to 128 Mb, Can I just do that thru Gparted, wont it mess up my system?
[00:00] <Lint> still who can help me troubleshoot boot issue?
[00:00] <j0hndoe> what is your problem Lint
[00:00] <antnash> sraue, tried it......     for i in `find . -name Only*`; do mv $1 `echo $1 | sed -e "s,Only Fools ,,"`; done
[00:00] <Lint> it hangs somewhere in init
[00:01] <antnash> No luck
[00:01] <antnash> said I'm using mv wrong
[00:01] <urlin2u> j0hndoe, reducing the swap size will not change that change the swappiness.
[00:01] <Lint> antnash, filenames have spaces?
[00:01] <antnash> yup
[00:01] <h00k> antnash: I'd recommend #bash for that
[00:01] <antnash> doh
[00:01] <sraue> replace $1 with $i
[00:01] <j0hndoe> urlin2u, so its safe to reduce the size of swap, is that what you're saying?
[00:02] <antnash> yup, saw that right before you said it
[00:02] <qin> antnash: No find, nasted loop:  for i in {1..8}; do for y in {1..12}; do  echo season$i episode$y; done; done;
[00:03] <clemenstimpler> j0hndoe, reducing the size of swap does not minimise the frequency of swapping
[00:03] <urlin2u> j0hndoe, it will not fix the problem, you v=can reduce it you see what I'm saying, this will though to some extent.  http://dammuozz.selfip.com/?p=308
[00:04] <j0hndoe> clemenstimpler, but i read somewhere the more size of swap is the more work cpu does making it lag.. is that true?
[00:04] <urlin2u> j0hndoe, cpu use, and ram use and the swap area are conneted to some extent but high cpu is just that.
[00:05] <urlin2u> swap is for when the ram gets to a certain use j0hndoe
[00:05] <j0hndoe> urlin2u, im trying to edit swap it wont let me delete or shrink or something
[00:05] <clemenstimpler> j0hndoe, general advice: try to diagnose your problem before you copy solutions from the web
[00:06] <urlin2u> j0hndoe, right click then shut off, that will do you no good though.
[00:06] <Lint> I'm not exactly find reinstalling OS each two weeks funny or productive
[00:06] <j0hndoe> urlin2u, no good as in, will it mess up my system?
[00:07] <urlin2u> j0hndoe, it wont fix the problem you describe.
[00:07] <j0hndoe> Link, you got problem with bootloader yes?
[00:07] <Lint> nope, with init
[00:08] <wildbat> johndoe, you will have a slower system or even hangs if you don't have enough memory ( RAM+ SWAP), shrinking do you no good at all ~
[00:08] <j0hndoe> oh i see
[00:09] <\bMike\b> ubottu: css
[00:10] <wildbat> !swap |  j0hndoe for details:
[00:11] <Lint> is it support channel? why only trolls are here?
[00:11] <Corey> Lint: Ask a question, we'll do our best. :0)(
[00:12] <clemenstimpler> in other words: you get what you pay for ;)
[00:12] <urlin2u> Lint, and quit looking in the mirror. ;-)

[00:15] <clemenstimpler> lint, have you done a memtest recently? maybe it's a hardware problem
[00:16] <Lint> of course its not hardware problem, it worked yesterday ?
[00:16] <clemenstimpler> oh sorry
[00:16] <h00k> Lint: Hardware can go bad, it's not too far off-base
[00:17] <Lyca> hi
[00:17] <clemenstimpler> i've been bitten by that myself, that's why i ask, when a problem seems to be difficult to track
[00:17] <Lint> well I have to reinstall now loosing all my software
[00:17] <clemenstimpler> wait lint
[00:18] <p00d73> Lint, you can you aptoncd to back your software up
[00:19] <Lyca> I have an older desktop and it apparantly runs Ubuntu quite poorly, I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a lighter distro that I can easily set up a torrent client on?
[00:19] <th0r> Lyca: xubuntu
[00:19] <h00k> !xubuntu | Lyca
[00:19] <p00d73> Lyca: Linux Mint LXDE
[00:19] <Lint> Lyca, dsl is the only linux that work on anything older than 2004
[00:19] <clemenstimpler> lint: dpkg --get-selections | grep "\binstall" | awk '{print $1}' > /tmp/dpkg.log gives you a list of isntalled packages
[00:19] <Lyca> The thing is it has to support a bit torrent client
[00:20] <clemenstimpler> sudo xargs -n1 apt-get --reinstall install -y < /tmp/dpkg.log
[00:20] <p00d73> Lint totally not true
[00:20] <Dr_Willis|2> Lyca:  about ANY distro can do that.
[00:20] <th0r> Lyca: try either xubuntu or lubuntu, the hardware should be sufficient for those
[00:20] <clemenstimpler> helps you to recover your installed packets
[00:20] <clemenstimpler> -packets + packages
[00:20] <Dr_Willis|2> Lyca:  you dont even need a gui for a bittorrent client.
[00:20] <Lyca> ok, i'll look into that. thank you all for your answers
[00:20] <Lint> I cannot backup anything until I boot
[00:21] <p00d73> Lint, I have a '95 machine running LM DE
[00:21] <p00d73> totally fine
[00:21] <Lint> lm?
[00:21] <h00k> Lint: please stop with the false statements.
[00:21] <clemenstimpler> is there a way to recover a list of installed packages from a boot via live-cd?
[00:21] <th0r> Lint: my mentor used to say you fix linux, you don't reinstall linux. But your attitude is turning off the very people you need to help you out
[00:21] <bazhang> p00d73, linux mint is offtopic here please dont recommend it
[00:22] <p00d73> bazhang, lubuntu is offtopic too in the ubuntu channel?
[00:22] <clemenstimpler> Lint: do you get any specific error messages?
[00:22] <clemenstimpler> i. e. where exactly do you hang?
[00:22] <bazhang> p00d73, no
[00:22] <Dr_Willis|2> p00d73:  Lubuntu is an offical variant. (well almost totally official now)
[00:23] <p00d73> okay, let's say that lubuntu is on topic
[00:23] <Lint> last message was 'checking battery state... OK'
[00:23] <p00d73> why would recommending an other distro for other usage be offtopic?
[00:23] <p00d73> it's about solving problems right?
[00:23] <bazhang> p00d73, this is ubuntu support only,  not debain, mint bt etc
[00:23] <h00k> p00d73: because this is the Ubuntu support channel, not 'distro recommending channel.'
[00:24] <Onlyodin> What on earth is Lubuntu?
[00:24] <bazhang> p00d73, thats ##linux
[00:24] <Dr_Willis|2> its about providing official ubuntu (and official variant support)
[00:24] <gry> !lubuntu | Onlyodin
[00:24] <bazhang> Onlyodin, lxde and openbox
[00:24] <Onlyodin> ahh
[00:24] <Dr_Willis|2> Onlyodin:  Ubuntu with the LXDE desktop.  - its good for low end machines
[00:24] <Dr_Willis|2> Onlyodin:  using it now on most of my machines
[00:24] <jeremy420> i just installed kubuntu and updated it but cannot get flash to work says its installed but doesnt work ?

[00:25] <Lint> it could be nice if not pcmanfm, which is worse than win95 explorer

[00:25] <p00d73> he asks for a recommendation
[00:25] <p00d73> I give my honest opinion
[00:26] <jeremy420> i just installed kubuntu and updated it but cannot get flash to work says its installed but doesnt work ?
[00:26] <clemenstimpler> how did you install it jeremy420?
[00:26] <clemenstimpler> flash that is jeremy420
[00:26] <Dr_Willis> p00d73:  but then you feel the need to insult us when we state our opinion and how the channel guidelines are..
[00:27] <jeremy420> i downloaded the kubuntu extras pkg
[00:27] <jeremy420> restricted extras
[00:27] <Dr_Willis> jeremy420:  what browser are you trying flash in?
[00:27] <jeremy420> firefox
[00:27] <Lint> now I would appreciate someone to stop useless replics about linux philosophy and attitude and actually helped me to troubleshoot

[00:28] <EyePulp> howdy - I have a failing upstart conf - is there a log location I can go to see why it's failing?
[00:28] <clemenstimpler> Lint, i've asked you some minutes ago, and you didn't reply
[00:28] <Tru3fate> can anyone explain when i start up ubuntu it goes thru its self test and saids kvm fails. how can i  fix.
[00:28] <jo-erlend> Dr_Willis, I finally figured Synergy out. Turned out I had just misunderstood something. This is great! Thanks for the tip! I've wanted this for ages :)
[00:28] <Dr_Willis> clemenstimpler:  too late. :)
[00:29] <Dr_Willis> jo-erlend:  yep. the config is simple. but picky. at least yoi dident spend 4 hrs like i did trying to run synergyc via ssh...
[00:29] <Dr_Willis> jo-erlend:  the x forwarding really messed things up for me. :) pointer was going to the left side.. then reappearing on the right side.. on teh same pc. :)
[00:29] <clemenstimpler> Dr_Willis, I'm very glad I don't do this for a living ;)
[00:29] <jo-erlend> Dr_Willis, haha
[00:29] <p00d73> Dr_Willis, if an op could come over and tell me I'm violating the rules by recommending another distro, I'll apologize to you
[00:30] <Lyca> is transmission the only BT client you can get for xubuntu?
[00:30] <jo-erlend> Dr_Willis, does this work without X?
[00:30] <IdleOne> p00d73: you are violating the rules
[00:30] <urlin2u> lol
[00:30] <IdleOne> now please get back on topic
[00:30] <IdleOne> thank you.
[00:30] <th0r> Lyca: qbittorent, deluge, and a few others
[00:30] <mld> Hey everyone, working with a mini-pci-express card.. console only.. getting "No Carrier" is that purely a carrier issue, or could it be the device driver also... 3g CDMA card
[00:30] <Dr_Willis> Lyca:  thers  dozen of bittorrent clients out there.
[00:30] <p00d73> IdleOne, I'm your mother
[00:30] <th0r> lyca I run xfce and use qbitorrent
[00:31] <Lyca> i know there is, but im very new to the linux scene. im still trying to figure it out
[00:31] <clemenstimpler> Lyca, you find them by opening synaptic and entering 'torrent' in the search box
[00:31] <clemenstimpler> then you google the single programs and form an opinion
[00:31] <Dr_Willis> Lyca:  theres even uTorrent ported to linux (web interface only, 32bit only)
[00:31] <Lyca> im considering either xubuntu or lubuntu, but im wondering if there would be a disadvantage if i got lubuntu as compared to xubuntu
[00:31] <Dr_Willis> Lyca:  i tend to use qbittorrent. the exact ubuntu variant wont matter much.
[00:32] <Dr_Willis> Lyca:  if you have a low end system. try lubuntu first
[00:32] <th0r> Lyca: you will find lxde lighter than xfce, but you will find xfce more configurable and maybe a little more powerful
[00:32] <EyePulp> when I run "sudo service foo start" where can I look to see why it fails?
[00:32] <Lyca> hmm
[00:32] <clemenstimpler> Lyca, some programs are tied to particular environments: if you install ktorrent on a lubuntu install, it will draw in many dependent packages
[00:32] <Lyca> this is the computer im running it on, if you guys wouldnt mind checking out the specs
[00:32] <Lyca> http://www.recycledgoods.com/products/Sony-PCV-RX670-Vaio-PCV-7742-P4-1.8-GHz-512-MB-80-GB-DVD-RW-CD-R.html
[00:33] <aaas> jo-erlend: the problem with synergy is that you cant move windows between monitors hopefully you don't find it annoying like i did
[00:33] <jo-erlend> aaas, that would be cool. But that's not something I need.
[00:33] <th0r> Lyca: I used to do system performance analysis for work. I think you will find xfce and lxde pretty close as far as utilization of system resources. A more important decision will probably be which software you choose to use with it
[00:34] <urlin2u> Lyca, you might try both on a thumb drive.
[00:34] <linux_is_my_hero> i have a wireless network with 3 ubuntu machines one windows machine. how do i set up wireless print server & sharing across the network?
[00:34] <atdprhs> Hey, what is the best application should I use to clean up disk space?
[00:34] <urlin2u> atdprhs, bleachbit
[00:35] <aaas> jo-erlend: well it may not be that important to you but once you get used to being able to shove things around you won't want to go back...well thats what it was for me
[00:35] <atdprhs> Thank you urlin2u
[00:35] <clemenstimpler> atdprhs, i use ncdu - it's ncurses based so it runs in the terminal

[00:40] <FerretWithASpork> How do I set commands to run on startup?
[00:40] <Dr_Willis> FerretWithASpork:  depends on the commands..
[00:40] <remington> I love your name Ferret, lol
[00:41] <atdprhs> I noticed just now that it gives me authentication error
[00:41] <urlin2u> FerretWithASpork, these is stsrtup applications, what do you want running then?
[00:41] <FerretWithASpork> Dr_Willis: Want to have my NTFS partition mount on startup
[00:41] <urlin2u> there
[00:41] <atdprhs> I am using user that is Admin, I suppose, but I'm not using root
[00:41] <Dr_Willis> FerretWithASpork:  make a proper fstab entry for it.
[00:41] <atdprhs> should I run it from root?
[00:41] <Dr_Willis> !ntfs-3g | FerretWithASpork
[00:41] <urlin2u> atdprhs, no admin asked for password right?
[00:41] <FerretWithASpork> Dr_Willis: Thanks
[00:42] <atdprhs> no
[00:42] <atdprhs> it didn't ask for password
[00:42] <atdprhs> should I run it from terminal with sudo command?
[00:42] <urlin2u> atdprhs, you are using the regular the admin syas bleachbit root.
[00:42] <urlin2u> says
[00:44] <remington> My onboard sound is capable of 8 channel audio, but ubuntu wont give me options for anything above stereo duplex. (I'm on 11.04 x64)
[00:45] <urlin2u> atdprhs, you could but blaechbit has a regular and root access in the menu. I have had to run it in the terminal to get it set the first time.
[00:45] <urlin2u> atdprhs, gksudo though
[00:46] <chroot> ls
[00:47] <Dr_Willis|2> ls - command not found.
[00:47] <atdprhs> I don't see "bleachbit root"
[00:47] <atdprhs> hold on, the os keeps freezing once in a while
[00:47] <urlin2u> atdprhs, run it int he terminal gksudo bleachbit   should show there after that.
[00:47] <atdprhs> done
[00:48] <atdprhs> please send me the full command urlin2u?
[00:48] <IdleOne> full command:  gksudo bleachbit
[00:48] <Dr_Willis|2> gksudo bleachbit    is the full command. :)
[00:48] <dougaitken> anyone used ecryptfs before?
[00:48] <urlin2u> atdprhs, gksudo bleachbit
[00:48] <atdprhs> I did that but it gave me an error :S
[00:48] <Dr_Willis|2> and the error was?

[00:50] <LePato> Hi. I've just run Natty Narwhal from CD and I had to restart the session. Now it asks for a username/password. Any help appreciated
[00:51] <urlin2u> atdprhs, try it again that happens.
[00:51] <atdprhs> I typed sudo bleachbit and it worked
[00:51] <urlin2u> cool
[00:51] <atdprhs> I did
[00:51] <atdprhs> I'll post another paste
[00:52] <h00k> LePato: I think the username is 'ubuntu' with no password.
[00:52] <urlin2u> atdprhs, gksudo and sudo are the same gk for graphcs is all.
[00:52] <h00k> LePato: Alternatively, reboot.
[00:52] <atdprhs> I only typed sudo and it worked
[00:53] <LePato> Thanks h00k!!! I tried that, but with 'ubuntu' as password.
[00:53] <atdprhs> here is what gksudo gave me again after I tried again:- http://paste.ubuntu.com/673457/
[00:53] <h00k> LePato: ;)
[00:53] <urlin2u> atdprhs, bleachbit always fails the first sudo or gksudo you ran sudo the second time.
[00:54] <atdprhs> I ran sudo the third time

[00:56] <Danny> I' ve been using Ubuntu for about two years and is fantastic
[00:57] <atdprhs> well, sudo does the job, right?
[00:57] <atdprhs> urlin2u, yup I know ;)

[00:58] <PDunny> whats a cool game for ubuntu?
[00:58] <h00k> !games | PDunny
[00:59] <urlin2u> bleacbit isn't a true graphics app, basically I guess. atdprhs
[00:59] <dougaitken> hey, anyone used ecryptfs before?
[00:59] <jeremy420> Alien arena has some nice graphics
[00:59] <h00k> dougaitken: what's your actual question regarding ecryptfs?
[00:59] <djjonex> how do i setup a file sharing server in ubuntu for my home network ?
[00:59] <FerretWithASpork> Dr_Willis: I got them to mount on boot with fstab entries but is there any way to get rid of their icons on the desktop?
[01:00] <atdprhs> I didn't grow up on Linux, I grew up on Windows, so I'm not really experienced with linux except for 1-2 years but not in a row, but I'm back because I love it! And this is my 2nd time using Bleachbit and this is the first time running it into an admin mode
[01:01] <urlin2u> FerretWithASpork, gconf-editor
[01:01] <Dr_Willis> FerretWithASpork:  gnome settings.. somewhere.
[01:01] <Jokn> djjonex: File sharing as in media sharing or mapped network drives?
[01:01] <Dr_Willis> djjonex:  install samba if you want to access/share files to windows boxs
[01:01] <atdprhs> so I don't know if it's a true graphics app, but maybe...
[01:01] <dougaitken> so i was / am running 10.10 and I have 3 accounts, main, a random test account & a guest account. Anyway, I was wanting to wipe my android phone via ADB. And I ran rm -rf *
[01:01] <atdprhs> 1 minute remaining
[01:02] <urlin2u> atdprhs, still cleanng?
[01:02] <h00k> dougaitken: who were you logged in as?
[01:02] <dougaitken> I thought i ran it in the ADB shell but I ran it in my home dir. I Ctrl+C, stopped the command & nothing happened so thought i was fine
[01:02] <atdprhs> yea
[01:02] <dougaitken> my main user account
[01:02] <urlin2u> atdprhs, you cleaning the whole disc I se.;-)
[01:02] <urlin2u> see
[01:02] <dougaitken> but I shutdown my system, tried to log in next day & it flings me errors
[01:02] <h00k> dougaitken: do you have backups?
[01:03] <dougaitken> my Dropbox but no music / video / other files backup
[01:03] <atdprhs> my file system is now officially 0 bytes :D but I know it will rise up suddenly like it did the last time when I ran it in none root mode
[01:03] <urlin2u> atdprhs, are you running as root generally?
[01:03] <dougaitken> my main issue is that Im using my test account, but I've tried to run ecryptfs off a thumb drive but for some reasons cant get my original home dir to copy to external drive properly
[01:04] <atdprhs> no
[01:04] <urlin2u> cool
[01:04] <atdprhs> usually my username, but when it asks for root authentication, I give it, sometimes, I have to if I'm gonna play with the file system

[01:05] <dougaitken> aye its already been set up & i ran the ecryptfs command. ,it says it unlocked but its not letting me copy it. its possibly to do with my ext drive but wanted to make sure I was doing it right.
[01:05] <djjonex> how I join another channel?
[01:05] <henry-> I'm trying to access my samsung phone's files
[01:05] <atdprhs> I actually installed Ubuntu on Flash Drive, it's much better than installing it onto a computer hard drive, it will run slower yes, but it gives you portability in return
[01:05] <henry->  /join #channel djjonex
[01:05] <h00k> djjonex: /join #channelname
[01:06] <djjonex> thanks guys
[01:06] <dougaitken> I followed along to this: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBgQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fblog.dustinkirkland.com%2F2011%2F04%2Fintroducing-ecryptfs-recover-private.html&rct=j&q=ubuntu%20ecryptfs%20how%20to%20dustin&ei=e05UTs2zHpHdsgaMs7Af&usg=AFQjCNFXOEMmmdsBSuc8LCand3aBQMaiJQ&sig2=jttoMSqbvV29rAw5izME8A&cad=rja
[01:06] <dougaitken> damnhttp://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2011/04/introducing-ecryptfs-recover-private.html
[01:06] <henry-> is there a way to forcefully mount (I know, heh) an usb device?
[01:06] <henry-> http://pastebin.com/Pg2igUD1
[01:06] <henry-> I'm trying to access the files on my samsung gt-s5600 phone
[01:07] <dougaitken> but for some reason I cant mount the drive
[01:07] <henry-> when I attach it, I see a window pop up and then immediately close
[01:07] <phrostbite> what is the firefox extension that allows scripts to run?
[01:07] <atdprhs> haha, when i refresh my /, it doesn't show the free space anymore, it got tired of showing 0 bytes hehe :D
[01:08] <urlin2u> phrostbite, do you mean the blocker noscript
[01:08] <phrostbite> urlin2u, I forget what it is. I remember I had it and then installed a script so that on facebook it stopped the slideshow and showed the pictures inline
[01:09] <th0r> henry-: unplug the device, open a terminal and 'tail -f /var/log/messages'. Then plug in the device and see if it is recognized (/dev/sdb, /dev/hdb, etc). If so, you should be able to mount it using the mount command
[01:09] <front243> phrostbite, could be greasemonkey
[01:09] <dougaitken> h00k, i'll have a read through that page, thanks.
[01:09] <phrostbite> front243, Yeah thats it :)
[01:09] <urlin2u> phrostbite, greasemonkey
[01:10] <henry-> th0r, it shows up in lsusb
[01:10] <atdprhs> I think it froze on 0 Minutes remaining
[01:12] <atdprhs> urlin2u, does it usually froze?
[01:12] <urlin2u> atdprhs, it can seem like it, maybe so, never seen it happen.
[01:12] <henry-> this is what I get in tail: http://pastebin.com/FQBz7P6w
[01:12] <th0r> henry-: that is your pastebin, right? it doesn't show what device it is, and you need that to mount it
[01:12] <henry-> th0r,
[01:12] <mld> anyone know why wvdialer says "no carrier" (cdma mini-pci-express card) is there a way to debug that?
[01:12] <atdprhs> urlin2u, is it because of the 0 bytes that my disk space became?
[01:13] <th0r> henry-: /dev/sdb. Type 'mount' in the terminal and see if /dev/sdb is mounted somewhere. If not you should be able to mount it
[01:13] <urlin2u> atdprhs, I only know how to push the button and wait.
[01:13] <atdprhs> urlin2u, is it possible to give "/" more free space from "home", I'm not technically using it yet
[01:13] <atdprhs> hahahahaha
[01:13] <urlin2u> atdprhs, I never wipe the whole free space, it might have froze
[01:14] <urlin2u> atdprhs, you have a seperate home?
[01:14] <henry-> "mount sdb" "mount sdb1" won't work
[01:14] <henry-> "can't find"!
[01:14] <urlin2u> henry-, /dev/sdxX
[01:15] <atdprhs> it was 387 MB, when I started the bleach bit to start cleaning, it killed the free space completely
[01:16] <th0r> henry-: try mount /dev/sdb, but I think you will have to create a  mount point (a simple folder) and then use a full mount command.
[01:17] <henry-> what's the syntax for the full mount command?
[01:17] <atdprhs> yeah
[01:17] <atdprhs> urlin2u, I do have a seperate home
[01:17] <th0r> henry-: assuming the simple command doesn't work. Create a folder in your home (mkdir /home/username/tempmnt). Then issue this command 'mount -t vfat /dev/sdb /home/username/tempmnt....put your username in both commands
[01:18] <Gus> I need some help guys!
[01:18] <henry-> don't we all Gus ;D
[01:18] <Gus> How can I get my HDD back to NTFS on Ubuntu?
[01:18] <hydrozen> Hi. I have an EC2 small instance running Lucid, and it's reporting high average loads but the cpu seems idle most of the time… is it possible that it's reporting false data?
[01:18] <WHAT_UP> I don't know where to ask this, but what would be the correct way to make my /home partition change from primary to logical?
[01:18] <urlin2u> atdprhs, you would I think change the partitions in gparted, seems like a waste though, unless it is really messed up.
[01:18] <th0r> henry-: and you might need /dev/sdb1 instead of /dev/sdb
[01:19] <henry-> henry@main:~$ sudo mount /dev/sdb /home/samsungmount
[01:19] <henry-> mount: mount point /home/samsungmount does not exist
[01:19] <hydrozen> the machine feels pretty responsive too… doesnt feel slow
[01:19] <geth022> I am having a hard time connecting to my wireless internet through my Ubuntu OS. Am i on the right channel for this?
[01:19] <Gus>  How can I get my HDD back to NTFS on Ubuntu? It is FAT32 right now!
[01:19] <th0r> henry-: you need to create the mountpoint.....if your username is 'henry' then mkdir /home/henry/tempmnt
[01:20] <urlin2u> Gus, you want the info on it now/
[01:20] <Gus> Yes
[01:20] <urlin2u> Gus, you will need to pull it off to change.
[01:20] <henry-> it exists th0r
[01:20] <Gus> I need to make the HDD NTFS
[01:20] <Gus> ?
[01:20] <th0r> henry-: then you should be able to use it in the mount command
[01:21] <Gus> I don't have Windows on the PC just Ubuntu
[01:21] <Gus> So I want to know how to make it NTFS
[01:21] <geth022> I know i have the correct setup for the actual internet modem thing, it works fine for this computer right here, but it is not registering it in ubuntu B///
[01:21] <henry-> now it claims that neither sdb or sdb1 exist
[01:21] <henry-> :S
[01:21] <henry-> could it be the phone's programming?
[01:21] <frankbro> Is there a site where I can find reviews on how well a GPU is supported with the proprietary drivers?
[01:21] <Gus> HELP D;
[01:21] <th0r> Gus: http://maketecheasier.com/how-to-reformat-an-external-hard-drive-to-ntfs-format-in-ubuntu-hardy/2008/09/29
[01:22] <henry-> you'll need to repartition the drive Gus
[01:22] <Gus> Ok
[01:22] <mecablaze> I am trying to get a cron job to work. I have it running under root (sudo crontab -e). The command is a python script. It runs fine when I run it through the terminal, but it errors out when it runs through the cron job (via /var/log/syslog)
[01:22] <Gus> This will work on a internal correct?
[01:22] <henry-> oh, an external drive
[01:22] <henry-> if you change the filesystem type it will erase all data! Gus
[01:22] <henry-> so back up your data
[01:23] <th0r> henry-: it appears from the pastebin that it is recognized as /dev/sdb, so that command should work. But I have never worked with a phone...so there may be something else involved
[01:23] <Gus> Ok, so how do I make my internal HDD NTFS?
[01:23] <urlin2u> Gus, using that ink will wipe the info in formatting a ntfs
[01:23] <urlin2u> link
[01:23] <Gus> Even Internal?
[01:24] <atdprhs> urlin2u, won't I need to change the configuration of the home folder to be located on the /
[01:24] <urlin2u> Gus, yes you have to remove the data to be saved then make a NTFS then reoad it
[01:24] <urlin2u> reload
[01:24] <henry-> I have a hunch that it's coded in the phones software to only allow their software to access the phone th0r
[01:24] <Gus> How? That shows external
[01:25] <urlin2u> atdprhs, not really an area of expertse for me I have only one partition per install.
[01:25] <henry-> you're on ubuntu Gus?
[01:25] <henry-> there's a partition manager
[01:25] <calwig> Dr_Willis: you there?
[01:25] <th0r> henry-: that may be. I have never tried to interface a cell to a computer.
[01:25] <Gus> Where?
[01:25] <calwig> xrdodrx: You there
[01:25] <calwig> Sorry Im gonna paste this
[01:25] <calwig> Section "InputDevice" Identifier	"Synaptics Touchpad" Driver		"synaptics" Option		"SendCoreEvents"	"true" Option		"Device"	"/dev/psaux" Option		"Protocol"	"auto-dev" Option		"HorizEdgeScroll"	"1"
[01:25] <pietro10> Is this the channel for Ubuntu Software Center? If so, my setup is stuck on 5 removes and asking me to confirm removal of a sixth that has cross-dpeendencies that I meed to remove too. What should I do -- kill it?
[01:26] <phrostbite> Is there a way in firefox to open multiple tabs when the application is opened?
[01:26] <urlin2u> Gus, in windows I think you can convert look on the web
[01:26] <pietro10> specifically the modal dialog box will not respond to button presses
[01:26] <calwig> HorizEdgeScroll was set to 0 instead of being set to 1 for some reason. So I just set it to 1 and it worked. Scroll mouse working.
[01:26] <Gus> The computer doesn't have Windows
[01:26] <Gus> Only Ubuntu
[01:26] <henry-> get gnome partition editor from software center Gus
[01:26] <Gus> Ok
[01:26] <Gus> Be right back
[01:27] <frankbro> Is there a site where I can find reviews on how well a GPU is supported with the proprietary drivers?
[01:27] <henry-> back up your data Gus
[01:27] <urlin2u> Gus, okay then your question is answered, to be honest you wold back it up anyway
[01:27] <atdprhs> free space is now 1 GB
[01:27] <atdprhs> i'll restart my computer
[01:27] <hidensoft> hi
[01:27] <Gus> Ok
[01:27] <hidensoft> i configure vpn connection but i can see that , how i can connect to vpn ?
[01:28] <urlin2u> hello ubuntu help, we do miracles.
[01:28] <pietro10> hidensoft: I don't understand. What do you mean
[01:30] <PuffTheMagic> .
[01:31] <hidensoft> pietro10: how i can establish a VPN connection ? i make it , but i don't know how i can do this
[01:32] <pietro10> hidensoft: hm. So you created a VPN connection but you don't know how to connect to it?
[01:32] <hidensoft> vpn connection menu in network manager applet just have 2 submenu , configure vpn and disconnect vpn
[01:33] <pietro10> hidensoft: choose Configure VPN
[01:33] <hidensoft> pietro10:  ok
[01:33] <hidensoft> i see my vpn connection
[01:33] <pietro10> ...huh.
[01:33] <pietro10> so it's configured properly, but not showing up in the menu? that's odd
[01:34] <pietro10> sadly I don't know how to fix it; does anyone else here know?
[01:34] <hidensoft> yes
[01:34] <hidensoft> this is bug ?
[01:34] <hidensoft> holy shit
[01:35] <prezident> does anybody know how to change gnome3 boot screen ?
[01:36] <gry> !gnome3 | prezident
[01:36] <gry> prezident: There also is irc://irc.gnome.org if you want more details on some of tht
[01:37] <prezident> gry, thanx
[01:37] <hidensoft> prezident: i see some application do this , but i don't know names , search in google you find it ;)
[01:37] <gry> prezident:  #gnome on here as well if you can't or don't want to connect
[01:37] <th0r> henry-: I gather you are trying to interface a samsung phone?
[01:37] <pietro10> So I still don't know. Ubuntu Software Center is not responding to events; only playing the sound effect and showing the animations. It's stuck on a dialogue asking me to remove a cross-dependency to a package I am trying to remove. 5 other removes are in progress. What should I do?
[01:38] <prezident> hidensoft, gry thanx
[01:38] <henry-> samsung gt-s5600 th0r
[01:38] <henry-> I just want to access the videos and photos on it's microSD
[01:40] <archimede> salve a tutti
[01:40] <urlin2u> pietro10, maybe if your more vague we can help you. ;-)
[01:40] <th0r> henry-: I haven't found a reference to that particular model, but I have found several sites concerning interfacing linux to a samsung. This one looks promising....but is compile from source...http://www.bitpim.org
[01:41] <pietro10> urlin2u: huh? I don't understand what's vague about it
[01:41] <bure4st037> hello, I have a problem with aptoncd
[01:41] <bure4st037> can anyone help me?
[01:42] <gry> bure4st037: If you ask the full question please.
[01:42] <bure4st037> I made a backup on a .iso some months ago, want to make a restore now
[01:42] <bure4st037> but can't burn the .iso
[01:42] <Gus_> Hey
[01:42] <Gus_> Me again
[01:43] <bure4st037> if I open aptoncd and press restore
[01:43] <bure4st037> it says it can't find cd's
[01:43] <gry> bure4st037: On one line pretty please
[01:43] <urlin2u> pietro10, not a name of a single package
[01:43] <gry> bure4st037: What's te full error message, do you have a write-capable drive available
[01:43] <pietro10> the package I'm trying to remove I think is called heroes; it also wants me to remove heroes-sdl; and i dunno the names of the other 5 packages only that they're all games
[01:44] <bure4st037> first it says "No cd", then "E: Unable to stat the mount point /media/cdrom/ - stat (2: No such file or directory)
[01:44] <bure4st037> E: Unable to stat the mount point /media/cdrom/ - stat (2: No such file or directory)
[01:44] <bure4st037> E: Failed to mount the cdrom.
[01:44] <bure4st037> "
[01:44] <gogeta> bure4st037: :(
[01:45] <urlin2u> pietro10, the software center can be problematic, you want to run each process then the next.
[01:45] <th0r> henry-: this guy got his working....http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php/topic,73657.0.html
[01:45] <Lint> pietro10, synaptic is times better
[01:45] <Gus_> http://img801.imageshack.us/img801/3632/selection033.png How do I format my HDD
[01:46] <gogeta> Lint: wait to you see the new html5 one
[01:46] <pietro10> thanks, but how do I get out of the situation I am in now?
[01:46] <gogeta> Gus_: just delete and make a new partation
[01:46] <maahes> without a PWM module, how can I force acpi to run my fan at 100%? There is fan control going on for some reason, but fancontrol told me I had no PWM modules
[01:46] <urlin2u> Gus,  backup what's there deleta and mae antfs
[01:46] <Gus_> How?
[01:46] <Gus_> How do I delete?
[01:47] <gogeta> Gus_: RIGHT CLICK DELETE
[01:47] <Dr_Willis> bure4st037:  make sure there is a /media/cdrom directory?
[01:47] <gogeta> Gus_: lol dam capslock
[01:47] <hydrozen> is it possible that Lucid doesnt report correct average load on EC2? I'm getting average load between 2-4 while the cpu seems to be idle. Doesnt make sense… and the machine feels responsive.
[01:47] <Gus_> Won't let me select it
[01:47] <bure4st037> Dr_Willis, I made one and mounted the .iso in it
[01:47] <Dr_Willis> bure4st037:  but for burning an iso file.. im not sure why you need to do that.
[01:47] <urlin2u> Gus, right click the swap then swap off then right click it and delete then sda1 delete then sda 2delete
[01:47] <gogeta> Gus_: you would need to do it on the live cd
[01:47] <Dr_Willis> bure4st037:  oh. you are trying to  fake it out. :)
[01:47] <bure4st037> still didn't work, and burning is not an option
[01:48] <Gus_> On the live CD?
[01:48] <Dr_Willis> could be its trying to remount it or somthing bure4st037  ive never used aptoncd
[01:48] <urlin2u> Gus, yes on a live cd of course
[01:48] <gogeta> Gus_: yea you cant reformat a drive in use
[01:48] <Gus_> How do I do that?
[01:48] <Dr_Willis> gogeta:  well :) you can.. but its not nice.. heh...
[01:48] <urlin2u> Gus, are you just trying to install windows?
[01:49] <Gus_> Yes, but my HDD needs to be NTFS and it isn't right now
[01:49] <gogeta> Gus_: windows can do it
[01:49] <Gus_> I don't have windows on it right now
[01:49] <urlin2u> Gus, windows will make the NTFS for you.
[01:49] <Dr_Willis> Gus_:  windows installer disk can do it. or perhaps try the gparted live cd. that way nothing is in use.
[01:49] <Gus_> No
[01:49] <Gus_> Windows installer won;t
[01:49] <Gus_> It fails
[01:50] <Gus_> It says it can't do it
[01:50] <Dr_Willis> so the core of the issue is windows installer failing.. :) and you are trying to work around it.
[01:50] <Gus_> And restarts my PC
[01:50] <gogeta> Gus_: in the installer when it shows the partations slect delete on all of them
[01:50] <urlin2u> Gus, I doubt that but use a live ubuntucd or gparted cd
[01:50] <pietro10> k how about this
[01:50] <Gus_> It doesn't get that far
[01:50] <pietro10> if I force quit Ubuntu Software Center in this situation, will Iscrew up my pakcage database?
[01:50] <Gus_> It says loading installer folders and then says failed
[01:50] <gogeta> Gus_: i think for 7 you have to slect advanced when it ask where to install
[01:50] <xrdodrx> calwig, you there?
[01:51] <urlin2u> Gus_, if it does not get that far I doun=bt it will instal, kinda important part.
[01:51] <bure4st037> pietro10, if it's running and you close APT, it will fuck up your system
[01:51] <Gus_> I know
[01:51] <Gus_> That's why I need it to be NTS
[01:51] <Gus_> That is why I am here
[01:51] <xrdodrx> !language | bure4st037
[01:51] <Dr_Willis> Gus_:  so to make a ntfs. you could use gparted (or other live cds) or ask in #windows about doing it via a windows disk of some kind.
[01:51] <Dr_Willis> Gus_:  or gparted + the ntfsprogs on ubuntu. if the disk/partitions are not in use.
[01:52] <Gus_> How do I get them not in use?
[01:52] <Gus_> Sorry
[01:52] <Dr_Willis> gparted requires ntfsprogs installed to allow messing with ntfs.
[01:52] <henry-> well hot damn th0r
[01:52] <Gus_> I'm not good with Ubuntu
[01:52] <henry-> it's working
[01:52] <henry-> thanks man
[01:52] <gogeta> Gus_: in windows when it ask what hdd to install on slect advanced it will bring up partations delete all of them then  on the empty tell windows to install there
[01:52] <henry-> you gain 30 wizard points
[01:52] <Gus_> Ok
[01:52] <Dr_Willis> Gus_:  unmount them.. which will be hard to do if you are trying to mess with your / partition.. which is why i mention the live cd's
[01:52] <Gus_> Be back later
[01:52] <th0r> henry-: in all fairness they should go to google <smile>
[01:53] <Dr_Willis> Google is a level 10000000 wizzard.
[01:53] <gogeta> Dr_Willis: what happond to over 9000
[01:53] <gogeta> !!!!
[01:53] <th0r> henry-: you can blacklist that module so it doesn't give you problems after reboot
[01:54] <henry-> I've been trying to google the problem for quite some time now th0r :P
[01:54] <henry-> I just removed the thing
[01:54] <henry-> should be enough, right?
[01:54] <Lint> are there some gui tools for unattended installation?
[01:54] <th0r> henry-: an advantage of knowing nothing....I got real good at the searches
[01:55] <th0r> henry-: that module will reload at reboot....put the module name in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and it won't load again
[01:55] <henry-> aight
[01:56] <henry-> you mean blacklist.conf, right?
[01:57] <th0r> henry-: I think so. I haven't used it in a while...would need to go back to google <smile>
[01:57] <th0r> henry-: yeah...just looked...it is blacklist.conf
[01:58] <henry-> alrighty then!
[02:03] <WarOp> I'm installing packages onto another machine using packages previous downloaded already, and on the other machine after i installed about half its saying "Package is missing final newline"
[02:03] <WarOp> I googled it and it said to try changing /var/lib/dpkg/info to /var/lib/dpkg/info.old
[02:03] <WarOp> just curious what exactly does that do
[02:04] <WarOp> it works but now on some of the packages then it looks like its trying to update some but its not sure whats been installed already
[02:06] <urlin2u> WarOp, any of those from a repo not added, or another source, not in the repo's
[02:07] <WarOp> ya mediaubuntu
[02:07] <wolter> is anybody getting a triple inbox in the messaging menu (from evolution) ?
[02:08] <WarOp> to where its working, but its saying that updating package o this package doesnt seem to be installed
[02:08] <urlin2u> WarOp, is a key missing indicated?
[02:08] <WarOp> dpkg: warning: files list file for package `homebank-data' missing, assuming package has no files currently installed.
[02:08] <hp00pr> anyone use red5? says network connection rejected when I try to use the demos.. dunno whats wrong.
[02:09] <prezident> does anybody know how to change the splash screen in gnome3 ?
[02:09] <WarOp> so it appears that I installed packages then later on received an update for the packages and now it wont allow me to update due to changing the /var/lib/dpkg/info > /var/lib/dpkg/info.old
[02:10] <IdleOne> WarOp: change it back
[02:10] <WarOp> but if if change it back then it'll give the error "Package Missing final newline"
[02:10] <WarOp> what does that mean
[02:10] <mjreed> where is network manager for 11.04 server?  apt-get says there's no release candidate; I don't see it on the cd...
[02:10] <mjreed> s/release/install/
[02:11] <th0r> WarOp: take a look in the file and see if you can find a package missing a newline at the end of the line
[02:11] <WarOp> trying to install Identical system onto other similiar system
[02:12] <mjreed> I'm trying to set up a server on wifi, and not having much luck.  ath9k card is detected by lspci and lshw but shows DISABLED and doesn't appear in /proc/net/wireless at all.
[02:13] <KM0201> mjreed: a server on wifi?.. thats interesting..
[02:13] <hp00pr> lol
[02:13] <mjreed> yeah, yeah.  i don't have the cat5 run yet.
[02:13] <KM0201> "hey guys, i got a mustang... don't wanna drive it though, who wants to help me push it around town!"
[02:13] <linux_is_my_hero> how do i share a printer over my network so ubuntu and windows can see it?
[02:14] <KM0201> !cups | linux_is_my_hero
[02:14] <mjreed> it's just a home network.
[02:14] <hp00pr> !red5
[02:14] <KM0201> mjreed: doesn't really matter to be truthful.
[02:14] <mjreed> If I were setting up a real server, it'd be a VM in someone's data center. :)
[02:14] <KM0201> still doesn't make sense
[02:15] <mjreed> OK.  Can we stipulate that I'm an idiot because noone in their right mind would ever do such a stupid thing as set up a server on wifi, and move on?  I would still like to be able to set the box up without waiting for the wire runs.
[02:16] <th0r> mjreed: I have set up servers on wifi....why not? don't let the clowns mislead you
[02:16] <greg> ok, so I installed the new kernel and now my networking doesn't work unless I use the old kernel.  Do I need to install my realtek drivers while running the new kernel and how do I do that?
[02:16] <WarOP> Computer Rebooted so what does it mean when it says "Package is missing Final newline
[02:17] <mjreed> Thanks, thund3r god.  I appreciate the support.  Any tips on where to look next?  Most of the stuff I found online either requires software that I can't find, or only works if the card shows up in /proc...
[02:17] <mjreed> the old ath_pci driver is not showing up; the ath9k driver is there in lsmod..
[02:17] <th0r> mjreed:  might the server have a hardware switch that is being misread?
[02:17] <WarOP> Googled & found to change /var/lib/dpkg/info > /var/lib/dpkg/info.old
[02:17] <WarOP> which it worked to install the package that was saying Missing final newline
[02:18] <mjreed> nah, it's not a laptop and the wifi is an add-on card with no switch,
[02:18] <Jordan_U> mjreed: You should be able to configure it with /etc/network/interfaces and ifup/ifdown, or use nm-cli if you really want network-manager. But it no showing up in /proc/net/wireless is concerning. I'm pretty sure network-manager won't help fix that.
[02:18] <WarOP> but what trying to install updated packages and it's like it doesnt see the existing packages already installed
[02:18] <mjreed> yeah, i'm trying to get from lshw and lspci to /proc.  I don't know what the missing piece of the puzzle is there.
[02:18] <Jordan_U> mjreed: Can you pastebin the output of "lsmod | grep ath"?
[02:20] <linux_is_my_hero> yeah, i m still really confused by samba, etc....
[02:22] <linux_is_my_hero> how do i find my shared printer on another ubuntu machine?
[02:22] <mjreed> Jordan_U: sure. http://pastebin.com/SfjqgZhE
[02:23] <Sp0tter> whats the easiest way to install amd stream sdk?
[02:23] <Sp0tter> is it in a repo?
[02:23] <mjreed> ignore the wrong pastebin title..
[02:24] <urlin2u> Sp0tter, this http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
[02:25] <Sp0tter> amd, not android
[02:25] <neil> in the top command what does the %wa mean? it seems high to me
[02:26] <Sp0tter> opencl for gpu programming
[02:28] <linux_is_my_hero> i can't find my shared printer.
[02:29] <e_t_> linux_is_my_hero: You have two Ubuntu computers, and you want to print from one to the other?
[02:29] <linux_is_my_hero> e_t_: yes. the long-term goal is to  also print from windows to the ubuntu, but im focused on ubuntu to ubuntu FIRST.
[02:29] <dialtone> found the bug with the free space problem, it was definitely that some files where left open
[02:29] <dialtone> somehow they wouldn't appear on 'lsof' but only in 'lsof /'
[02:30] <pmp6nl> Hello, in 10.04 when I go to places and try to open documents etc. I get the following error: No application is registered as handling this file -- any ideas?  Thanks
[02:31] <e_t_> linux_is_my_hero: OK. You don't have to use Samba at all for that (You will for Windows). Open a web browser to http://localhost:631 and click on the Administration tab.
[02:32] <Guest79933> I see a few people on the forums reporting that no buttons respond in the users and groups app and nobody has ever responded.  I'm having the same issue on a clean install of Natty.  Can anybody help?
[02:32] <neil> in the top command what does the %wa mean? it seems high to me
[02:33] <Onlyodin> neil, %wa is wait time
[02:33] <Onlyodin> typically the system is waiting for I/O operations I believe
[02:35] <neil> Onlyodin, ok thanks
[02:35] <shinsuke> hi. my ices2 process breaks up after my first ogg file ended. please help. thanks.
[02:36] <Gredeu> i havea  video capture device that hasn't worked since lucid.  i've upgraded to oncelot 3.0.3 kernel and am wondering if the previously missing /dev/ mount points are back -- i know nothing about video capture
[02:37] <IdleOne> !11.10
[02:38] <Lyca> im trying to update ubuntu, all the updates are downloaded but for 30 minutes all its said was "waiting"
[02:38] <Lyca> anyone know whats wrong?
[02:38] <Jasonn> Lyca: Its lazy and waits for too long!
[02:39] <Jasonn> Lyca: But seriousely, it could have froze
[02:39] <Lyca> its not froze
[02:39] <Jordan_U> !screenshot | Lyca
[02:39] <IdleOne> Lyca: it's waiting for header files, some mirrors are slow. you may want to try switching your repos to something closer to you.
[02:39] <Lyca> oh sorry this is for xubuntu i forgot
[02:40] <Lyca> but no ones talking on the xubuntu chat, so i thought id ask here
[02:40] <Superdave321> My ssh server is not responding from outside my network. I have control from inside, but the process times out from outside. any ideas? my ultimate goal is an ssh tunnel for all web traffic.
[02:40] <IdleOne> Lyca: a screenshot might be useful as Jordan_U suggested
[02:40] <Lyca> ok
[02:41] <Superdave321> My ssh server is not responding from outside my network. I have control from inside, but the process times out from outside. any ideas? my ultimate goal is an ssh tunnel for all web traffic.
[02:42] <Jasonn> Superdave321: The port isnt forwarded
[02:42] <jon_high9000> does anybody have problems with overactive scripts when running firefox (any version)?
[02:42] <methark> nope
[02:42] <Superdave321> Jasonn: I've put one in my router, but it still has the same problem.
[02:43] <mjreed> weird.  I can iwconfig, iwlist scanning...
[02:43] <Jasonn> Superdave321: Is it forwarded properly?
[02:43] <Superdave321> Jasonn: maybe not. Got some tips?
[02:43] <mjreed> huh.  added the config to /etc/network/interfaces and rebooted and it worked.
[02:44] <mjreed> Thanks for the assist, Jordan_U and th0r.
[02:44] <Jasonn> Superdave321: lol, other than read the manual, not really. Every router is different... Make sure you are forwarding it, and not triggering it, and make sure you are forwarding the right port to the right server.
[02:44] <methark> close
[02:44] <Jordan_U> mjreed: You're welcome.
[02:45] <Superdave321> Jasonn: ok, Thanks. Is there anything in the server I could check? i've set it up on a non-standard port...
[02:46] <Jasonn> Superdave321: Do you know what port that is? and make sure you are forwarding that port, and set your client to connect to that port
[02:48] <Lavagolemking> Is there a way I can undo a dpkg --clear-selections?
[02:48] <Lavagolemking> I was pasting commands and accidentally pasted the wrong one. Now all my packages are marked for removal.
[02:49] <Lavagolemking> They aren't removed yet, but I'd like to not have them removed at the next update.
[02:49] <Lavagolemking> Anybody?
[02:50] <Superdave321> Jasonn: Yes, I have the port number. I'm trying to connect through terminal on the client side and then use a SOCKS proxy.
[02:51] <Jasonn> Superdave321: And you are sure that you have the right port?
[02:51] <linux_is_my_hero> my cups client sends a print job to my cups server and nothing happens.
[02:51] <Superdave321> Jasonn:  Positive.
[02:52] <Jasonn> Superdave321: Then I dont see you having any problem :)
[02:52] <PDunny> anhone know how to cinnect to a upnp server on ubuntu?
[02:53] <Superdave321> Jasonn: ...That's what I thought  :/ Thanks for the help!

[03:01] <linux_is_my_hero> lavagolemking: what's the issue?
[03:01] <MrBojangels> okay
[03:01] <Lavagolemking> linux_is_my_hero: I mis-pasted a command, and ran dpkg --clear-selections .
[03:01] <linux_is_my_hero> lavagolemking: oh, lord....
[03:02] <MrBojangels> BatBlaster, then what?
[03:02] <Lavagolemking> linux_is_my_hero: Now everything is marked for removal in dpkg, although apparently not removed yet.
[03:02] <BatBlaster> well that checks what processes you have open
[03:02] <Gredeu> is there a video whiteboard where i can draw and record things as if it were a chalkboard, and save to video ?
[03:02] <BatBlaster> Maybe you can then use that to figure out whats wrong
[03:03] <MrBojangels> i see nothing wrong
[03:03] <BatBlaster> I donno0 then, ask someone else
[03:03] <MrBojangels> what the linux equiv to alt tab?
[03:03] <Lavagolemking> linux_is_my_hero: Any ideas?
[03:03] <ubuntu_> you dont see to much MrBojangels
[03:03] <MrBojangels> er
[03:04] <MrBojangels> alt tab isnt working
[03:04] <ParkerR> MrBojangels, alt tab is the equivelent to alt tab
[03:04] <BatBlaster> Alt-tab is used to do that here too?  is gnome-panel up
[03:04] <linux_is_my_hero> lavagolemking: be patient, im looking for a better chat room. this one doesn't seem much help either, i can't seem to solve my printer issue so this will benefit us both :-)
[03:04] <MrBojangels> how do i restart gnome?
[03:04] <ParkerR> sudo reboot
[03:04] <BatBlaster> have anything you might loose

[03:05] <Gredeu> i see a wiimote whiteboard but i don't have a wiimote.  anything i can use with mouse and record motion ?
[03:05] <ParkerR> BatBlaster, I know but a reboot is usually the best bet
[03:05] <ParkerR> Gredeu, ??
[03:05] <alazare619> Test
[03:05] <Lint> are there some gui tools for unattended installation?
[03:05] <MrBojangels> well
[03:05] <ParkerR> Gredeu, mouse and record motion?
[03:05] <MrBojangels> i alt-f4ed twice
[03:05] <Gredeu> ParkerR, yes
[03:05] <MrBojangels> it logged me out

[03:07] <ryzorg> 2 for price of 1
[03:07] <Gredeu> like this only with mouse
[03:07] <ParkerR> Gredeu, I know that
[03:07] <Lavagolemking> linux_is_my_hero: It looks like the output of dpkg --get-selections only lists currently installed packages (about to be removed).
[03:07] <ParkerR> So use a mouse on whiteboard?
[03:07] <Gredeu> ParkerR, yes ir
[03:07] <Gredeu> sir
[03:07] <ParkerR> Gredeu, No
[03:07] <Gredeu> bummer
[03:07] <oooaaaooo> ParkerR: im on unity ... how do i get to system preference on unity?
[03:07] <alazare619> #debian is stupid quiet
[03:08] <ParkerR> Oh
[03:08] <Lavagolemking> linux_is_my_hero: Would it work if I output the contents into a file, replaced every instance of "deinstall" with "install", and import it again?
[03:08] <ParkerR> press super then type power management
[03:08] <ParkerR> super = windows key
[03:08] <alazare619> what does it mean x isnt in the sudoers file?
[03:08] <linux_is_my_hero> lavagolemking: i havent done much work with dpkg, so im looking it up myself
[03:08] <ubuntu_> thats your problem alazare619
[03:08] <Lavagolemking> linux_is_my_hero: Thanks.
[03:09] <ParkerR> alazare619, ignore that. He gives weird responses sometimes
[03:09] <ubuntu_> weird may be your mother )
[03:10] <alazare619> no one is responding in deb channel so why does x isnt in sudo file mean never encountered it before
[03:10] <alazare619> i can su drop to root but not sudo
[03:10] <ParkerR> alazare619, is your username x?
[03:10] <alazare619> no my username is alazare619
[03:11] <BatBlaster> i think the x server has a user
[03:11] <Superdave321> SSH server refuses connection from outside my personal network. Any thoughts?
[03:11] <ubuntu_> sure no its a name like anyother
[03:11] <ParkerR> Superdave321, forwarded port on router?
[03:11] <alazare619> replace x with ne user logged into my system
[03:11] <ParkerR> Oh I thought ubuntu_ was ubottu
[03:11] <ParkerR> Derp
[03:11] <alazare619> ie me alazare619
[03:11] <ParkerR> Too late
[03:11] <Superdave321> ParkerR: Yep.
[03:12] <ParkerR> Superdave321, using external IP address and port 22?
[03:12] <alazare619> im working on that distro but got stuck parker
[03:12] <methark> Guys...quick question: what is the name of that app that changes the ubuntu login bg etc?
[03:12] <Thelmaria> Superdave321: When you say it refuses connection, the ssh server logs say you've connected but it doesn't log you in, or it just times out trying to connect?
[03:12] <ParkerR> alazare619, oh
[03:12] <alazare619> rather confused im thinking i messed up a config file
[03:12] <ParkerR> you should say exactly what it says
[03:12] <ParkerR> I get you now
[03:13] <alazare619> but idk where to look for a sudoers file grep isnt helping either
[03:13] <BatBlaster> how does dd work
[03:13] <ParkerR> Wait
[03:13] <ParkerR> alazare619, ok open root terminal.
[03:13] <alazare619> ok
[03:13] <Superdave321> ParkerR: using external DynDns and remote ip addresses and non-standard port#.
[03:13] <ParkerR> Accessories > root terminal
[03:14] <Flannel> alazare619: Is this in Debian? or Ubuntu?
[03:14] <ParkerR> Oh I had him confused
[03:14] <methark> Ubuntu
[03:14] <ParkerR> alazare619, sudo visudo
[03:14] <alazare619> deb but no one in deb is responding
[03:14] <alazare619> and it should work hence the question
[03:14] <san_> Hi,  a week I cannot connect to the ssh server I used to be able to connect before I moved to another app, always getting the error  port 22: No route to host, which is strange since my collegues can connect from outside...Any thought or possible test to pinpoint the problemÉ thanks
[03:14] <alazare619> kk ill try that parker thanks for the idea
[03:15] <ParkerR> Well theres more
[03:15] <Flannel> alazare619: Alright.  Well, it means you aren't able to currently use sudo.  Could be a variety of reasons.  You'll need to ask in #debian (try #debian on oftc, thats the primary channel).  If it were Ubuntu, I'd say you likely removed yourself from the admin group, but that's not how debian does things.
[03:15] <ParkerR> Flannel, no I had this confused with debian its my fault for the confusion
[03:15] <Superdave321> Thelmaria: When I try to connect, it actually prints "ssh: connect to host {address} port {port #}: connection refused."
[03:15] <alazare619> im working on it through my phone over 3g atm vnced into my work horse controlling the vbox lol
[03:16] <Flannel> ParkerR: No worries.
[03:16] <alazare619> all over 3g love android phones
[03:16] <methark> |°/
[03:16] <ParkerR> Flannel, but yeah Ubuntu should make the user able to use sudo from the get go
[03:16] <Thelmaria> Superdave321: Check /var/log/auth.log - that'll tell you if the ssh server recieves the request (ie, port forwarding is working).
[03:16] <ParkerR> Hmm
[03:17] <alazare619> only worry i didnt base it off ubuntu was cause there is no equal on ubuntu to liquorix kernel
[03:17] <Flannel> ParkerR: Well, he could have removed himself from the admin group accidentally.
[03:17] <alazare619> reasson*
[03:17] <ParkerR> Flannel, tis true
[03:17] <ParkerR> I cant think right now
[03:18] <ParkerR>  Good ight everyone
[03:18] <ParkerR> *night
[03:18] <gry> Good night ParkerR
[03:18] <Superdave321> Thelmaria: is there a way to do that via ssh? I only have access to that right now.
[03:18] <ParkerR> Thanks gry
[03:19] <Thelmaria> Superdave321: Do you have access to the server ?
[03:19] <ubuntu_> dear dave im boring about you
[03:20] <Superdave321> Thelmaria: .....yes... i have it in a location where it's easiest to leave it headless, but I can go get it and hook it up to a moniter..
[03:20] <linux_is_my_hero> lavagolemking: i'm going to bed, but try asking people in the following rooms: #ubuntu-beginners, #ubuntu-devel, #ubuntu-power-users, #ubuntu-quality, #ubuntuforums
[03:21] <Lavagolemking> linux_is_my_hero: Thanks. Still looking around...
[03:21] <rimswald> hello can anyone give me information on how to setup KGpg for encryption?
[03:22] <rimswald> or more specifically, why KGpg will not open even though it is installed
[03:24] <Pici> Lavagolemking: #ubuntu-devel is not a support channel.
[03:24] <gogeta> lol
[03:24] <gry> oo?
[03:24] <Lavagolemking> Pici: I'm not in #ubuntu-devel.
[03:24] <gogeta> well it is sorta
[03:24] <Book_> the bootup sequence on my machine is halted with the message "Soft lockup detected on CPU#1" & then when I try to alter the bootup statements in grub the message "alloc magic is broken at ...."
[03:24] <gogeta> diffrent type of support
[03:24] <Pici> Lavagolemking: Just following linux_is_my_hero's advice :)
[03:25] <Lavagolemking> Pici: Thanks.
[03:25] <Book_> appears.  Is this evidence of data corruption or hardware failure?
[03:25] <Lavagolemking> Pici: I'm going to try replacing "deinstall" with "install" then dpkg --set-selections < /tmp/dpkg_list and see if that fixes anything.
[03:26] <Jordan_U> Book_: I would run memtest to check for bad RAM.
[03:26] <Pici> Lavagolemking: good luck :)
[03:26] <Lint> installer promised it will restore previously installed applications, but was not able to. Is everything in ubuntu disfunctional like that?
[03:26] <Lavagolemking> Sure hope "install" is the right keyword...
[03:27] <Book_> Jordan_U: I did run memtest & it completed several runs w/o errors
[03:27] <Jordan_U> Book_: Have you checked the drive's SMART data?
[03:28] <E3D3> Do I have to give up certain software when I switch from Gnome/KDE to LXDE ? Can I use the same software ?
[03:28] <Jordan_U> E3D3: You can use the same software.
[03:28] <E3D3> Thanks Jordan_U
[03:28] <Jordan_U> E3D3: You're welcome.
[03:28] <Book_> Jordan_U: the HDD passed the quick test but I did not do an extensive test of the HDD for fear of losing data
[03:30] <Jordan_U> Book_: Is this a fresh install?
[03:30] <dzeremis1> Hi everybody. I have what I think might be a simple question. I have a Gateway laptop that is five years old. It has an internal wifi card. Some time ago, I had a newer PC that did not have wifi at all and bought a CISCO Linksys AE1000 card. It works via USB and is much better wireless technology. I think I've installed the thing. My computer definitely sees it with lsusb. But I'm wondering how to put it in use. It would be a lot better th
[03:30] <dzeremis1> an the internal wireless card.
[03:31] <Book_> Jordan_U: No, this is not.. I've tried booting up w/ a liveCD and the bootup process is halted as well
[03:31] <dzeremis1> Could you please help me figure this out? I think it's a simple question of a command I don't know how to do.
[03:32] <Jordan_U> Book_: Have you been able to boot from the same LiveCD on this machine in the past?

[03:33] <Book_> Jordan_U: Yes, I have been able to bootup a liveCD in the past.
[03:33] <dzeremis1> I don't mean to interrupt anything, of course. I'd just like help. It's not an epic question, thankfully.
[03:33] <Jordan_U> Book_: This particular LiveCD?
[03:33] <Jordan_U> !ask | dzeremis1
[03:33] <dzeremis1> I'm using Ubuntu 11.04 en simple.
[03:34] <Book_> Jordan_U: 11.04 on a flash drive
[03:34] <dzeremis1> ubottu: Hokey doke.
[03:35] <dzeremis1> Jordan_U: What does that mean?
[03:35] <Pici> dzeremis1: Its a trigger to tell ubottu to say something
[03:35] <Pici> !bot
[03:35] <dzeremis1> Pici: Thanks for telling me.
[03:36] <Pici> dzeremis1: np :)
[03:36] <dzeremis1> :-)
[03:36] <Book_> Jordan_U: in the past I've been able to bootup w/ 11.04 on a flash drive
[03:36] <oooaaaooo> what does an unauthenticated linux header file mean when running apt-get upgrade?
[03:36] <dzeremis1> In a nutshell: in Ubuntu 11.04, I'm using one wireless device. I think I have a new one installed correctly. What would I do to enable it?
[03:38] <hatch> how do I access other drives in the terminal?
[03:39] <ParkerR> hatch, cd /media
[03:39] <ParkerR> ls
[03:39] <ParkerR> to see what is there then cd to what you want
[03:40] <hatch> ParkerR: ahh perfect
[03:40] <hatch> so is it 'mounted' to those folders then?
[03:40] <ParkerR> Yep
[03:41] <support_> hello
[03:41] <hatch> thanks
[03:42] <karmst77> I'm debating on whether or not to switch my primary workstation to Ubuntu
[03:42] <karmst77> however, I'm having a hard time finding replacements for certain applications before I do so
[03:43] <karmst77> what does everyone use for web development and graphics manipulation?
[03:43] <illDecree> karmst77: GIMP
[03:43] <karmst77> Is there an Adobe Master Suite replacement?
[03:44] <illDecree> karmst77: AFAIK GIMP is it
[03:44] <hatch> karmst77: right now I switch back to win7 to use my Adobe CS, but thats because I paid way to much for it to just switch to gimp :)
[03:44] <hatch> but I do all the coding in ubuntu
[03:44] <Flannel> karmst77: Master Suite is an assemblage of various programs, there isn't a bundled set of programs like that, no.  But there are individual ones.  Inkscape for vector graphics, GIMP (or others) for raster graphics, etc, etc.
[03:45] <Superdave321> illDecree: would wine work for karmist77?
[03:45] <illDecree> Superdave321: dunno. never tried it. i do very little image manip ...
[03:45] <illDecree> Superdave321: i'd definitely try it though
[03:46] <ParkerR> karsten, I use Photoshop. Runs nicely in wine
[03:46] <illDecree> http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=14514&iTestingId=33545
[03:47] <ParkerR> Photoshop CS5 runs flawlessly
[03:47] <ParkerR> http://i.imgur.com/fvRWF.jpg
[03:48] <hatch> ParkerR: did you just do a typical install?
[03:48] <danctrl> PRIVMSG
[03:48] <karmst77> including all the plugins?
[03:48] <ParkerR> karsten, I believe so although I dont do any major major editing
[03:48] <ParkerR> hatch, yeah
[03:49] <hatch> thats crazy I didn't even think of trying it :D
[03:49] <danctrl> Can
[03:49] <karmst77> does virtualization work well in Ubuntu?
[03:49] <ParkerR> Well this isnt running in virtualbox or a vm
[03:49] <ParkerR> Its running in linux
[03:49] <hatch> I have noticed some odd layout issues with firefox 6 and ubuntu vs ff6 in win7 though
[03:50] <ParkerR> karsten, but yes it does
[03:50] <ParkerR> hatch, relevant http://i.imgur.com/C0g1D.jpg
[03:50] <karmst77> I mean can other OSes run well without issues using ubuntu as the host and vmware workstation with multiple VMs as the guest?
[03:50] <ParkerR> Yeah they run just fine
[03:51] <ParkerR> Ive tried XP and Vista in vmware player
[03:51] <karmst77> does ubuntu have a HCL somewhere?
[03:51] <hatch> thats not under a vm either?
[03:51] <ParkerR> hatch, nope wine
[03:51] <karmst77> or a utility to make sure your hardware is compatible?
[03:51] <hatch> very cool
[03:51] <ParkerR> karmst77, usually if you have a good graphics chip and decent RAM you should be fine
[03:52] <slink> i'm running natty (11.04) and i am wondering how to change a program's icon (when alt+tabbing) to a custom one (specifically for a custom firefox install). right now it shows a generic icon (black background, and a deny icon)
[03:52] <kyan> Hello! How can I force a downgrade of a package that I have as a deb file?
[03:52] <kyan> I can't use force version in synaptic because it is not from a repository.
[03:52] <wildbat> !hcl | karmst77
[03:52] <slink> kyan: tryu looking at the dpkg command
[03:53] <karmst77> well I have a Core i7 extreme, with 48Gb of RAM and dual Radeon HD 6700s
[03:53] <hatch> lol
[03:53] <Onlyodin> Interesting configuration.
[03:53] <Superdave321> holy freak, dude.
[03:54] <karmst77> ah yes that's what I was looking for
[03:54] <hatch> how much web development are you doing at once? haha
[03:54] <karmst77> I own an IT company
[03:54] <karmst77> so quite a bit
[03:54] <karmst77> plus remote support
[03:54] <karmst77> etc...
[03:54] <karmst77> It's over-kill I know
[03:54] <hatch> what mobo?
[03:54] <kyan> slink: Cool! That worked. Thanks!
[03:54] <karmst77> I also have 4 Dell 30inch monitors on it
[03:54] <Onlyodin> ya think?
[03:54] <ParkerR> karsten, yeah thats plenty for a vm XD
[03:54] <karmst77> lol
[03:54] <slink> kyan: good to hear
[03:54] <Superdave321> and getting facebook at light speed is just a perk... right?
[03:55] <karmst77> I hate facebook
[03:55] <karmst77> waste of time
[03:55] <hatch> so what mobo are you using to house that much ram?
[03:56] <Superdave321> lol... Just saying that if I had a machine like that, I'd have to take it home and get all the play out of me before I would be able to focus on any work whatsoever :P
[03:56] <karmst77> SuperMicro sever board
[03:56] <karmst77> server*
[03:56] <hatch> I didn't think any of their server boards allowed 2 gpu's
[03:58] <karmst77> SuperMicro MBD-X8DTL-iF-O
[03:59] <srikanth> hai every one
[03:59] <Lint> are there some gui tools for unattended installation?
[04:00] <Superdave321> Lint: there's probably some on the server version.
[04:00] <karmst77> Actually Hatch it will do 3 GPUs
[04:00] <srikanth> is there any tool like IDM in windows to download
[04:00] <karmst77> and also another 4 PCI-e devices
[04:00] <karmst77> and another processor
[04:00] <karmst77> lol
[04:01] <ohzie> Hey everybody
[04:01] <srikanth> hai @ohzie
[04:01] <Sp0tter> when i do chown -R myname *    why does it not work
[04:01] <PDunny> Will gin work on LXDE?
[04:01] <Sp0tter> it works in every other linux/unix i have seen
[04:01] <karmst77> sudo chown
[04:02] <Sp0tter> i'm doing it as root
[04:02] <karmst77> you still need to elevate
[04:02] <ParkerR> karsten, hes as root user
[04:02] <ParkerR> He doesnt
[04:02] <Sp0tter> on effect
[04:02] <ohzie> My wifi keeps, uh, stopping when I'm at home. I'm not sure how to diagnose this problem, whether it's the access point or my laptops wifi. Dmesg isn't really telling me anything.
[04:02] <Sp0tter> sudo has no effefct
[04:02] <ohzie> karmst77: Root is root.
[04:02] <Sp0tter> drwxr-xr-x  2 root    root      4096 2011-08-23 21:57 .vim
[04:02] <ParkerR> Sp0tter, what are you trying to do
[04:02] <ohzie> "How many things can root do?"
[04:02] <ohzie> All the things
[04:02] <karmst77> I'm betting he's not actually root
[04:02] <srikanth> is ubuntu is safer then windows
[04:03] <Sp0tter> ParkerR: change file ownership of a home folder i restored
[04:03] <PDunny> sri - yes
[04:03] <jiohdi> Sp0tter: try it with nautilus as root or thunar
[04:03] <Sp0tter> karmst77: i am actually root..
[04:03] <ohzie> srikanth: Debatable, but with most users yes.
[04:03] <PDunny> less virii
[04:03] <Sp0tter> root@tigress:/home/shannon#
[04:03] <ohzie> srikanth: That said, a well maintained windows server is more secure than a badly maintained linux server.
[04:03] <karmst77> then you would use chmod
[04:03] <Sp0tter> jiohdi: why should i have to.... i want to know why chown doesnt work heh
[04:03] <anonnewbie> Hey, can anyone point me to a suitable irc for Rescue Remix help?
[04:03] <jiohdi> Sp0tter: dont know, just offering an alternative
[04:03] <karmst77> unless you are the owner of the origial directory
[04:03] <Lint> sp0tter what's an error then?
[04:04] <Sp0tter> Lint: the error is that the file still belongs to root
[04:04] <Sp0tter> after  chown -R shannon *
[04:04] <karmst77> so chmod the folder
[04:04] <srikanth> how can we download youtube videos
[04:04] <Tadcrazio> hey guys, Im putting music together for a small wedding this weekend for a family member and I was thinking instead of having a list of music i have or what i will play, I want to display it on a monitor on the other side of the table, Hows that sound?
[04:04] <ohzie> srikanth: there are firefox plugins for that
[04:04] <karmst77> what's the ACLs on the folder set to?
[04:05] <Sp0tter> karmst77: that does not matter
[04:05] <Sp0tter> chown is chown, i've been chowning for a long time heh
[04:05] <karmst77> but you did a restore right?
[04:05] <srikanth> i need the procedure how to download videos frm youtube
[04:05] <Book_> Is the message "soft-lockup detected on CPU#1" an indication of data corruption or hardware failure?
[04:05] <ParkerR> Sp0tter, chown -R username ~/*
[04:05] <ParkerR> Oh wait
[04:05] <ParkerR> Thatd do root home XD
[04:06] <ParkerR> Sp0tter, chown -R username /home/username/*
[04:06] <karmst77> he did that
[04:06] <Sp0tter> that worked
[04:06] <ParkerR> Try it witht he full path
[04:06] <Sp0tter> why did i have to use fill paths?
[04:06] <ParkerR> :D
[04:06] <ParkerR> Dunno
[04:06] <karmst77> because you are root
[04:06] <ParkerR> But if in doubt use full path
[04:06] <anonnewbie> anyone know a rescue remix irc channel?
[04:06] <Lint> why ALL my software GONE after reinstall? I chose an option to RESTORE it
[04:07] <karmst77> did you back it up first?
[04:07] <karmst77> hmm
[04:07] <karmst77> this HCL only shows complete systems
[04:07] <karmst77> not components
[04:07] <Lint> installer did
[04:07] <Superdave321> srikanth: go to tools->add-ons and search for something along the lines of download youtube. pick your one, and it should have instructions on how the rest works. it's different for each add-on.
[04:07] <karmst77> do they make a ubuntu HCL that shows raid cards, etc...
[04:08] <Sp0tter> hehe karmst77 "he probably isn't really root" .. priceless
[04:08] <karmst77> most new users aren't Spotter
[04:09] <Sp0tter> oh, i am a long time Arch user, just new to ubuntu..
[04:09] <karmst77> you went from arch to ubuntu?
[04:09] <ParkerR> sudo make -me=sandwich
[04:09] <karmst77> I would think you'd go the other way
[04:09] <Sp0tter> only for my a single computer because i needed a 2.6 kernel and 11.6 catalyrg
[04:09] <Sp0tter> catalyst
[04:09] <karmst77> ah
[04:10] <Sp0tter> 11.8 has a bug that breaks something i need, and i already have 3.0.1 on arch kernel
[04:10] <Superdave321> ParkerR: totally using that.\
[04:10] <ParkerR> XD
[04:10] <Sp0tter> wifes computer :)
[04:10] <karmst77> well I'm trying to debate here, ubuntu x64, centos 6 x64, or Solaris Open?
[04:10] <Superdave321> lawl
[04:10] <Sp0tter> i use solaris for my fileserver
[04:11] <Superdave321> ParkerR: XKCD, right?
[04:11] <karmst77> which one would be best as a Win7 x64 replacement with a focus on Graphics, Web Development?
[04:11] <ParkerR> I have a file server, minecraft server, openssh server, ace of psades server, and few other misc things running on my laptop
[04:11] <ParkerR> Superdave321, naah just thought of that wording
[04:11] <srikanth> how to download picasa
[04:11] <ParkerR> *spades
[04:11] <karmst77> or should I just VM my win7 and run it in vmware?
[04:12] <ohzie> karmst77: It depends on what applications you use
[04:12] <zenrox> id vm win7
[04:12] <srikanth> how to connect wit picasa web albums through ubuntu
[04:12] <ohzie> karmst77: VMing win7 would probably be the blockiest but most efficient solution, unless you're willing to learn new things.
[04:12] <KM0201> srikanth: did you install picasa?
[04:12] <bc81> hello.  i preformed some hard drive tests using GSmartControl, and i'm not sure what to make of the results.  according to this log file, is my hard drive failing? > http://pastebin.com/6jkwXQJe
[04:12] <karmst77> I'm willing to learn
[04:13] <karmst77> I have enough IT titles behind my signature that I'm very OS universal
[04:13] <ParkerR> bc81, looks good afaik
[04:13] <srikanth> i dont find picasa in my applications@kmo201
[04:13] <Superdave321> That determined to get away from windows7?
[04:13] <KM0201> bc81: well "overall health assessment: passed" i'm guessing thats good
[04:13] <ohzie> karmst77: It doesn't matter how os neutral you are in some cases. There are just something that photoshop can do that the gimp cannot do.
[04:13] <KM0201> srikanth: http://picasa.google.com/linux/thanks-deb.html
[04:14] <ohzie> karmst77: However, in the cases where you need photoshop, I'd suggest a VM
[04:14] <bc81> ParkerR & KM0201: ok thanks, so it's ok to ignore the 2 errors that were reported?
[04:14] <ohzie> karmst77: VirtualBox and VMware are both so nice nowadays.
[04:14] <karmst77> eh... Win 7 annoys me with how much overhead it has
[04:14] <ParkerR> Yeah most rpeort samll erors. COuld be false positives
[04:14] <ParkerR> *report small
[04:14] <KM0201> bc81: i didn't see any errors, but my guess is, if they were ritical, the drive would not have passed
[04:14] <karmst77> and vmware workstation locks up alot on it
[04:15] <bc81> ParkerR & KM0201: thanks guys, that's good to hear
[04:15] <ParkerR> karmst77, aww
[04:15] <KM0201> bc81: neither of those errors look serious to me.. like i said, if it was serious, the drive wouldn't have passed
[04:15] <bc81> ok
[04:15] <ParkerR> I like vmware player altough it doesnt like the Ubunt kernel
[04:15] <ParkerR> *Ubuntu
[04:16] <ParkerR> Keep failing on loading the modules when I start it up
[04:16] <ParkerR> *Keeps
[04:16] <KM0201> ParkerR: i hate vmware player.. much prefer vbox
[04:16] <karmst77> eh I'm a VCAP so all vmware is really cheap for me
[04:16] <karmst77> hmmm
[04:17] <ParkerR> KM0201, vmware player has much better USB support than vbox imo
[04:17] <karmst77> ubuntu might not like my raid card
[04:17] <Lint> how can I find a package list installer created?
[04:19] <ParkerR> Virtualbox even with the new USB package has always not liked USB for me
[04:19] <karmst77> ok be back in a few... Let's see how this installation goes...
[04:19] <ParkerR> Good luck
[04:19] <Superdave321> Dito
[04:21] <scandalist>  /join irc.haxnet.org
[04:22] <hatch> how would I get a list of the java packages installed so that I can uninstall them and install a different package?
[04:23] <hatch> dpkg --get-selections | grep java
[04:23] <hatch> oops :)
[04:23] <ParkerR> \o/ vmware launch successfully this time

[04:40] <gry> !wireless | Sianide
[04:41] <gry> Sianide: If you have some troubleshooting info and can't see what to do by reading the guide, just ask in here.
[04:41] <stevecam> gry, i can play something using aplay and i can tell it to play 5.1 audio directly through my digital line, but pulseaudio ust plays the audio as stereo

[05:11] <ArseneRe1> Does anyone know what handles setting a sudo's environment?
[05:14] <Sianide> Can someone help me with my wifi problem? I cant install windows 7 so im kinda stuck with ubuntu =/ Ubuntu sorta loses functionality for me without internet...
[05:15] <th0r> Sianide: a lot of words with no information
[05:15] <Sianide> I've given info no ones given me any information back though
[05:18] <sagaci> Sianide, what' the exact line you get with lsusb
[05:19] <ParkerR> sagaci, its not a USB device he said
[05:19] <Sianide> mhm its built in.. Cant find anything on it though
[05:20] <sagaci> ah ok
[05:20] <Sianide> When i do sudo ifconfig wlan0 up it gives me resourse temp unavailable
[05:20] <PythonPup> Is there some way to make notification message leave the screen in less than the hour or two it seems like they stay now?
[05:25] <urlin2u> Python1320, there is a ppa not a lot of exacting info, most it seems just get used to it.
[05:26] <Python1320> ok :p
[05:37] <Pirsch> Hello, can anyone tell me how to start Envy in 11.04?
[05:38] <Pirsch> Hello, can anyone tell me how to start Envy in 11.04?
[05:38] <acrousey> Haven't been on here for a while. Wondering if anybody would know how I could put Ubuntu onto a USB from my Mac. Don't want to install it on here. Want to put it on my father's computer.
[05:39] <Pirsch> acrousey: couldn't you just simply boot up from a live cd and then run 'make startup disk'?
[05:40] <Pirsch> I've done this but never on a Mac
[05:40] <acrousey> @Pirsch, I don't have any live cd's around. And no cd's to burn unfortunately
[05:41] <Pirsch> acrousey: ah, I see. The only other thing I can think of is using a virtual drive (maybe)
[05:42] <urlin2u> acrousey, whats on the dads computer now?
[05:42] <zone> hi
[05:42] <Guest64326> i need some help ?
[05:42] <acrousey> @urlin2u, Hell... I mean Vista
[05:42] <JokesOnYou77> acrousey: please take a look at this page and do a search for "Mac" sould be the first thing that comes up. Unfortunately, it doesn't look good for you.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[05:43] <urlin2u> acrousey, use vista a unetbootin, much easier.
[05:43] <urlin2u> anand
[05:43] <JokesOnYou77> Agreed
[05:43] <JokesOnYou77> MUch easier
[05:43] <Pirsch> Hello, can anyone tell me how to start Envy in 11.04?
[05:44] <th0r> Pirsch: have you tried typing 'envy' in terminal?
[05:44] <urlin2u> Pirsch, what is envy?
[05:44] <Pirsch> I need to solve a graphics problem fast. I have my office convinced to switch to ubuntu
[05:44] <Pirsch> Yes, I've tried all the commands, nothing happens
[05:44] <acrousey> @urlin2u and JokesOnYou77, would i be able to completely wipe the machine and install only ubuntu on it that way?
[05:44] <Pirsch> Envy is a program that identifies graphics and installs drivers
[05:45] <Guest64326> i want share folder in ubuntu and windows user can past file or foler but delete or overwrite how to do that?
[05:45] <urlin2u> acrousey, the install will wipe it, windows and ubuntu are just easier to load thumbs on..
[05:45] <scottj> are there good alternative mplayer terminal ui's, perhaps one with a progress bar?
[05:46] <JokesOnYou77> acrousey: Yes.  You would use ImgBurn, or Unibootin to make a love CD or USB and then install Ubuntu to the PC and in the installation process you can reformat the drive
[05:46] <th0r> Pirsch: you couldn't have tried very hard....http://linuxers.org/howto/how-install-nvidiaati-graphic-cards-drivers-ubuntu-using-envy-ng
[05:46] <urlin2u> Guest64326, generarly a shred ntfs partition is used, if on the same computer
[05:46] <PythonPup> Guest64326, Ask that again, please.  What do you want the Windows users to be able to do?
[05:46] <uabn93> hey, i noticed the wifi applet doesnt appear if i switch from one user to another. anyone know why?
[05:46] <urlin2u> shared*
[05:47] <Guest64326> they can copy or past a file or folder but not delete or overwrite
[05:47] <urlin2u> uabn93, open the edit and click availbe to all users
[05:47] <Pirsch> thor: I have been trying, still am, but these things are not working,.... yet
[05:47] <Guest64326> adv thank you python
[05:47] <acrousey> urlin2u, I see that now. I might have to put both on his computer with a thumb though. Vista doesn't want to acknowledge his internet connection
[05:48] <Pirsch> thor: to add to my difficulties, I reside in China. ;)
[05:48] <Guest64326> any idea ?
[05:48] <urlin2u> acrousey, down load the ISO transfer it with the unetbootin download , and load the thumb, use the thumb to transfer .
[05:49] <th0r> Pirsch: that link tells you how to start and use envy in ubuntu
[05:49] <Pirsch> Thanks Thor. I'm still waiting for it to open. I think a proxy site just might open it
[05:50] <Guest64326>  i want share folder in ubuntu and windows user can past file or foler in that but not to delete or overwrite the same how to do that?
[05:51] <uabn93> urlin2u: checked and its already enabled for all. the wifi applet never shows up on a different account
[05:51] <Guest64326> if any one interested please guide me
[05:51] <urlin2u> uabn93, what's the desktops?
[05:52] <urlin2u> uabn93, and are both gettibg wifi?
[05:52] <urlin2u> getting
[05:53] <uabn93> urlin2u: the first account i log into is classic, and i tried switching between unity and classic on the second. only the first gets wifi. the second is missing an applet
[05:53] <PythonPup> Guest64326, I am looking.  It is an unusual request, but I am looking for an answer.
[05:53] <urlin2u> uabn93, unity is missing the applet?
[05:54] <Guest64326> but in centos its already configure phython !!
[05:54] <uabn93> urlin2u: yep
[05:54] <urlin2u> uabn93, any others missing, and have you tweaked compiz?
[05:54] <Guest64326> I am new to linux I want make sync to both pc
[05:55] <uabn93> urlin2u: im pretty sure it worked before. I'll check that out. no, verything else works fine
[05:56] <drawmeat> i remeber being able to create compressed folders in ubuntu before, what's changed
[05:56] <PythonPup> Guest64326, This purports to setup just like you want http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2001-October/030781.html
[05:57] <drawmeat> Q: How do you create compressed folders on ubuntu?
[05:57] <Guest64326> Python thank you !! i will try
[05:57] <gry> drawmeat: use archive manager
[05:58] <PythonPup> tar and bzip2 are used to create compressed sets of files.  Nautilus treats them like directories.
[05:58] <urlin2u> drawmeat, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression  maybe?
[05:59] <Guest64326> r u there Python ?
[05:59] <PythonPup> Guest64326, Are you talking to me?
[05:59] <urlin2u> drawmeat, also a right click-compress
[06:00] <Guest64326> in this case once who create file or folder he is able to delete but for me only root should have permission
[06:00] <Guest64326> r u getting
[06:00] <drawmeat> urlin2u, worked great thank you
[06:01] <ohzie> Guest64326: what
[06:01] <PythonPup> Guest64326, In the example, the special user can delete files or directories, but not the normal users.  Root or anyone with sudo access could also delete files.
[06:02] <jen_> who here uses firefox?
[06:02] <gry> jen_: Plenty of people.
[06:02] <Guest64326> ok i try now and get back !
[06:02] <jen_> ok how can I switch from tabs using the keyboard only?
[06:03] <jen_> I like to just use the keyboard for stuff
[06:03] <xangua> control+tab
[06:03] <gry> jen_: CTRL + PageUP/PageDOWN
[06:03] <iceroot_> jen_: ctrl + shift + ta
[06:03] <iceroot_> jen_: ctrl + shift + tab
[06:03] <jen_> oh ok
[06:03] <gry> Plenty people, I promised! :-)
[06:04] <linuxrealm> up arrow rght arrow/left
[06:04] <jen_> thats sweet thanks :D
[06:04] <jen_> oh!
[06:04] <linuxrealm> ctrl-tab
[06:04] <jen_> i have another question
[06:04] <jen_> lemme think of how to desrcibe it though..
[06:05] <stealz> Help! Closing youtube tabs freezes my ubuntu! Keyboard not working, cant restart X, nothing
[06:06] <jen_> are you on 666's account?
[06:06] <PythonPup> stealz, The power button does not even work?
[06:06] <Jordan_U> !sysrq | stealz
[06:06] <stealz> Thanks Jordan_U, but I am looking for a fix
[06:07] <FreezingCold> What does Ubuntu compile in its kerne;?
[06:07] <stealz> I cannot watch youtube videos because everytime I close a tab with a vid in it my pc freezes
[06:07] <FreezingCold> everything>?
[06:07] <wildbat> I am still wondering how to do Magic sysrq in a Vbox.
[06:07] <mukti> What browser?
[06:07] <stealz> PythonPup, the power button works, and so does Jordan_U 's suggestion
[06:07] <stealz> firefox
[06:07] <PythonPup> stealz, the fix would be to uninstall flash.  Use html5 for youtube.  I have never seen a problem like you describe.  I have never installed flash.
[06:07] <mukti> have you tried any other browsers?
[06:08] <jen_> ok so on my old ubuntu before I had to re-install my mouse would automatically (without clicking) just go to type in someone when I would scroll over it. I really love that feature but I dont know how I got it. Anyone know how to fix this?
[06:08] <stealz> PythonPup, I use html5 but I have to login for it to work. If I leave a window open and restart firefox my system freezes
[06:08] <stealz> PythonPup, and I use flash for other sites, too
[06:09] <stealz> mukti, not really, but I dont really want to tbh, I run dualboot and its perfectly synced between my 2 os
[06:09] <PythonPup> You don't have to login to use html5.  You just have to visit the right page and press the button that says you want to join the trial.
[06:10] <stealz> PythonPup, I did that
[06:10] <stealz> PythonPup, but it will only use the html5 player when I am logged in
[06:10] <mukti> stealz, I was just wondering if the problem was with the browser, or if it was something else.
[06:10] <PythonPup> I use it and I have never logged into youtube.
[06:10] <stealz> PythonPup, I never get a crash when I am logged in, but everytime the page loads and I am not logged in
[06:11] <linuxrealm> jen_: ?
[06:11] <PythonPup> i DON'T HAVE AN ACCOUNT WITH THEM.
[06:11] <stealz> PythonPup, maybe its because I dont store my cookies
[06:11] <stealz> mukti, good point, I will try another browser
[06:11] <stealz> what would you recommend with 10.04?
[06:11] <stealz> Chrome?
[06:12] <mukti> sure, it shouldn't really matter
[06:12] <PythonPup> I do have to enable them for youtube.  That is annoying, because I normally disable cookies, too.  But, if you are a Flash user, you are fooling yourself if you think disabling cookies helps much.  Flash is way too friendly to people who want to do nasty things to your computer.
[06:13] <stealz> yeah I've read so
[06:13] <scottj> anyone recognize this console twitter client? http://dotshare.it/public/images/uploads/91.png
[06:13] <stealz> Running Noscript, and might wanna use something to get rid of flash cookies
[06:13] <bullgard4_>  Why do I need a Gnats Bug-Reporting System as I can use Apport?
[06:14] <mukti> stealz, have you tried another browser yet?
[06:15] <stealz> mukti, no just looking for one
[06:15] <mukti> oh
[06:15] <stealz> dont have any other installed
[06:15] <bullgard4_> FreezingCold: "[08:07]	<FreezingCold>	What does Ubuntu compile in its kerne;?" <-- What do you want to know?
[06:16] <mukti> stealz, just do chrome or opera
[06:16] <stealz> mukti, just downloading chromium
[06:19] <jen_> ok
[06:19] <jen_> I got disconnected for a sec
[06:19] <jen_> anyone know how to set the mouse to scrollover?
[06:19] <linuxrealm> wb
[06:19] <jen_> thanks
[06:20] <stealz> I just realized something weird. I didnt have html5 enabled, but logging in still fixed the crashes
[06:20] <glisstech> Ok...so I cannot figure out how to give the second user account on my system access to a USB external drive that is on NTFS
[06:22] <linuxrealm> scrollover what?
[06:22] <wildbat> glisstech: remount it with umask=000
[06:23] <stealz> ok, so chromium doesnt crash my system
[06:23] <stealz> so its more of a firefox issues
[06:23] <PythonPup> Is that second user a member of the plugdev group, glisstech
[06:24] <jen_> ok for my mouse if I scrollover with my mouse it automatically lets me type
[06:24] <glisstech> pythonPup: Yes the user is a member of the plugdev group
[06:25] <ItBlends> there is so much broken stuff in ubuntu these days.
[06:26] <jen_> umm
[06:26] <ItBlends> if you go slightly outside the standard packages
[06:26] <PythonPup> glisstech, I thought that would be it.  Have you looked at the pmount program?
[06:26] <ItBlends> I tried to install and use xdm last week. completely shot.
[06:27] <ItBlends> xpdf crashes on any pdf
[06:27] <glisstech> PythonPup: cant say that I have...really just switched to Ubuntu about 3 months ago
[06:27] <linuxrealm> type where?
[06:28] <linuxrealm> in a browser? in a chat client? where? on the desktop?
[06:28] <Pirsch> I really need help with a graphics problem. Ubuntu doesn't seem to recognize my graphics card
[06:29] <Pirsch> It's an integrated
[06:29] <ItBlends> it keeps making radical changes with their core packages, with all kinds of unintended consequences everywhere else
[06:29] <ItBlends> i'm guessing
[06:30] <linuxrealm> Pirsch: right click your desktop, change desktop background > visual effects, do you have 3 or 4 options?
[06:30] <incogweedo> hi guys
[06:31] <bullgard4_>  Why do I need a Gnats Bug-Reporting System as I can use Apport?
[06:31] <incogweedo> oh wait brb
[06:31] <linuxrealm> then goto system > admin > additional drivers, see whats listed/enabled
[06:31] <Pirsch> linuxrealm: themes, backgrounds, fonts,... only
[06:31] <jen_> anyone know how to fix my simple problem?
[06:31] <linuxrealm> no visual effects?
[06:31] <jen_> editing the mouse so whenever I scroll over something I dont have to click to type
[06:32] <linuxrealm> open a terminal, type:   less /etc/lsb-release
[06:32] <jen_> a wee lazy I am but its usefull sometimes
[06:32] <linuxrealm> jen_: something like what? where?
[06:32] <PythonPup> glisstech, Have you checked the User Priviledges for the second user to see that access external storage devices automatically is turned on?
[06:32] <jen_> I used to be able to just scrollover with my mouse to be able to type and not have to click
[06:32] <Pirsch> linuxrealm: no visual effects
[06:32] <glisstech> PythonPup: Nope...where do I check that?
[06:33] <jen_> its useful if I have to use the terminal and have mulitple windows up
[06:33] <linuxrealm> Pirsch:  then goto system > admin > additional drivers, see whats listed/enabled
[06:33] <jen_> nothing serious but id just like to know how to get that back
[06:33] <incogweedo_> hey guys quick question: is there an API for the power manager (for vala) ?
[06:33] <PythonPup> glisstech, System/Administration/Users and Groups.  Are you running Gnome or Unity?
[06:33] <glisstech> PythonPup: found it...and yes it is checked
[06:34] <Pirsch> linuxrealm: I tried that yesterday, last night, and this morning. No drivers available
[06:34] <linuxrealm> jen_: check mouse properties in Control Panel
[06:34] <glisstech> PythonPup: Gnome...just not really all that impressed by unity
[06:34] <Duesentrieb> hi all. i have a problem with the unity desktop. basically, it fails to load on login. my problem is pretty much exactly the one described here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/34622/faulty-unity-session/58323
[06:34] <Pirsch> linuxrealm: if I had 10.04 iso, I'd just go back to that.
[06:34] <Duesentrieb> any idea how to reset unity so i can use it again?
[06:34] <linuxrealm> Pirsch: lspci and look for what card you have
[06:34] <Duesentrieb> gnome session works fine
[06:35] <PythonPup> glisstech, Unity is much better if you get rid of the global menus.  I still use Gnome on most systems, though.
[06:35] <AlecTaylor> hi
[06:36] <AlecTaylor> My Ubuntu Server install isn't getting an IP Address from DHCP. What can I do?
[06:36] <linuxrealm> Pirsch: lspci and look for what card you have
[06:36] <Pirsch> linuxrealm: it's integrated and unfortunately not listed
[06:38] <linuxrealm> Pirsch: goto ubuntu help and type: integrated graphic card, see what pops up
[06:38] <glisstech> PythonPup:I am sure its fine when you get used to it...having just switched from Windows, I am not that familiar with the admin tools, and that makes it just a bit difficult to find them in unity
[06:38] <urlin2u> Pirsch, what do you see when you run  lspci | grep VGA
[06:38] <Pirsch> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[06:39] <Pirsch> urlin2u: sysinfo says the same
[06:39] <PythonPup> glisstech, Good luck.  As you learn it, I think you will grow to like it more and more.  But, there is some learning involved, no doubt.
[06:40] <glisstech> PythonPup:I am a Windows sysadmin, so I am picking most things up pretty quick. Some stuff that is very straightforward in Windows, is more complex in Ubuntu. Like Mounting a USB drive
[06:42] <PythonPup> glisstech, It is fairly simple to manually mount the usb drive.  You might want to know how to do that as a backup.
[06:42] <Guest64326> hi Python
[06:42] <Pirsch> urlin2u: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[06:42] <zagibu> mounting an usb drive is pretty easy, you just plug it in
[06:43] <PythonPup> zagibu, Usually that works.  Not always.
[06:43] <zagibu> well, what do you do if it doesn't work on windows?
[06:43] <Guest64326> I have done everthing but not it is asking password i use guest account as nobody
[06:43] <glisstech> zagibu: under my user, that is true...problem I am having, is that under a second account on the same system...I can't seem to figure out how to allow access to the drive
[06:44] <zagibu> glisstech: compare group settings...
[06:44] <zagibu> also, how did you create this second user?
[06:45] <Guest64326> no its not working for me !!
[06:46] <glisstech> zagibu:second user is in the same groups as my user, created as an administrator using System/Administration/Users and Groups
[06:46] <zagibu> using newest ubuntu?
[06:46] <Morgz> can anyone tell me, if /dev is basically pre-loaded with ALL supported devices, what's the easy way to list only the ones in use?
[06:47] <polifasio> Morgz: lspci
[06:47] <polifasio> lshw
[06:47] <Morgz> ha - cheers
[06:47] <polifasio> lsd
[06:47] <polifasio> lspisspopd
[06:47] <glisstech> zagibu: 11.04 Natty logging into Ubuntu Classic desktop
[06:48] <zagibu> gonna try to recreate your problems
[06:48] <linuxrealm> glisstech: two files pretty much control what users can/cannot do, they are /etc/passwd and /etc/group pretty straight forward compared to the world of windows admin. if you simply edit these files particulary group, you issues will majically go away. however, some claim using a cmd to do things for you, will not teach you morea bout how much access you really have with linux when manually doing things. you will learn loads.
[06:49] <crking> i wanna know the difference between wmii and dwm. which one is more advanced and which one is better and has more features?
[06:49] <zagibu> well yeah, but i'd stick with the GUI tools at first...the cmd opens up a whole new world of stuff to learn
[06:49] <dr-willis> be sure to backup the origunals of those files.. ;)
[06:50] <linuxrealm> unix/linux is very well documented, and Howtos are all over help.ubuntu.com. you will be amazed at how simple to complex tasks are step by step. you will have no problems. its all about keyword searching though, so for your issue, it would be, user mount usb drive, something like that
[06:50] <glisstech> linuxrealm:yea, I get that. I have installed and broken and fixed and broken and reinstalled, then updated which broke stuff and had to reinstall again
[06:50] <glisstech> I have already learned alot, and tend to use the cli more than the gui even in windows for most tasks
[06:51] <dr-willis> which minimal window manager is less minimal you mean crking
[06:51] <linuxrealm> glisstech: just a tip, dont always upgrade, turn that off! only upgrade after say 6 months, when all the bugs are fixed by people who can report them pproperlly.
[06:51] <linuxrealm> glisstech: referring to the kernel
[06:51] <anth0ny> What are some popular menu replacements for Ubuntu?  I used to have one that I liked but I can't remember the name, it had a search built into it (I want to say the name was something like Calibiri, but obviously not the font.  Also, it wasn't Beagle).  Any ideas?
[06:52] <crking> dr-willis, put it this way. in land of tilling WMs. which on has more features. in plain language; which one is better ? (wmii or dwm)
[06:52] <somsip> crking: don't forget awsome
[06:53] <ItBlends> anth0ny, menu replacements? like a launcher? gnome-do?
[06:53] <glisstech> linuxrealm:good advice...I do believe I will stick to an LTS release for my work box, and use VirtualBox to play with other distros and new releases of Ubuntu
[06:53] <anth0ny> ItBlends, you know what?  I think I found it, it was Cardapio
[06:53] <linuxrealm> glisstech: there are lots of programs you may find interesting that are not maintained or support by ubuntu update, therefore, errata is important to read when upgrading anything, what was fixed, what is still broken or is not mentioned. its pretty serious do upgrades. however, as you progress, you will see what you can and should not upgrade.
[06:54] <dr-willis> its all relatve. just have to try them and read their docs and swe what you like crking . they all annoy me too much. so i use jwm.
[06:54] <linuxrealm> there a 1400 plus users here, if you stick around surely someone in here will assist, however, you may also want to hit up the #linux room. more helpful at times
[06:55] <crking> dr-willis, hi sir. if you like that taste better i recommend you use fvwm
[06:56] <glisstech> linuxrealm: thanks for the tip, I have found that this community is mostly helpful, though like anywhere I do see some bad apples every so often. But most generally far more willing to help than the typical Windows admin
[06:56] <dr-willis> used most all that exist crking . it all demends on my needs at the time.
[06:57] <linuxrealm> glisstech: agreed
[06:57] <linuxrealm> good luck
[06:57] <linuxrealm> yal come back now and see us, yehear
[06:57]  * crking wmii vs dwm??? any ideaS
[07:01] <JoeR1> I have a question, Gnome 2 still supported custom login themes correct?
[07:02] <JoeR1> No one is available?
[07:04] <ataouli> haha
[07:04] <JoeR1> haha what?
[07:05] <m1h0> hi does anyone know how to enable usb support in qemu
[07:05] <BarBlitz> yes
[07:06] <JoeR1> ah, there are folks around - Does Gnome 2 support custom login themes?
[07:06] <BarBlitz> mostly chown
[07:07] <BarBlitz> mostly chown -R username /prob/bus/usb
[07:07] <linuxrealm> m1h0: i noticed in virtualbox for example, the ose version had issues but the program from the site allowed,,, maybe this is the same in qemu
[07:07] <linuxrealm> did you load qemu from software center? or tar gz?
[07:07] <m1h0> i use virt-manager
[07:07] <m1h0> from software center
[07:08] <linuxrealm> ok, so from ubuntu. maybe im right , dunno yet, havent tried qemu yet
[07:08] <BarBlitz> also turn off the device: stop bluetooth, and let qemu grab device directly
[07:08] <IdleOne> m1h0: http://firmit.wordpress.com/2009/01/07/qemu-with-usb-support/
[07:11] <linuxrealm> this is an issue, the maintainers not setting these things prior to putting in software center.
[07:12] <JoeR1> So no one knows about gnome's custom login compatibility?
[07:12] <PythonPup> Is there some way to make notification message leave the screen in less than the hour or two it seems like they stay now?
[07:13] <hatch> I just installed openjdk-6-jdk but when I do dpkg --get-selections | grep java it doesn't show up in the list..am I doing the search wrong?
[07:13] <hatch> java-common is in there though
[07:13] <eshlox> hi, someone try install drivers from nvidia website? i have nvidia gt525m (optimus) in laptop and with default installed drivers glxinfo shows Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig etc. Its good idea to install this drivers from nvidia?
[07:13] <gry2> hatch: dpkg --get-selections | grep jdk
[07:13] <urlin2u> PythonPup, if you look on the web you will find references to a ppa, otherwise on the stock system no.
[07:14] <linuxrealm> hatch: where did you get it? software center?
[07:14] <hatch> gry2: oh there we go :) can I delete java-common with this jdk installed?
[07:14] <hatch> apt-get
[07:14] <hatch> 10.04
[07:14] <BarBlitz> try | less -c
[07:14] <BarBlitz> also, grep -i java
[07:14] <gry2> hatch: Try to do so, you will be told if it's otherwise.
[07:15] <PythonPup> urlin2u, OK.  I will look for it.  I guess it adds a config option.  I saw you mention ppa earlier, but I did not understand.  Thanks.
[07:15] <linuxrealm> hatch: just a tip about java, i would install it from: http://java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp?locale=en and just it manually
[07:15] <linuxrealm> and rid ubuntu of all java
[07:15] <linuxrealm> just a tip
[07:15] <BarBlitz> make sure your pcmcia stuff is on, and X11 has properly probed stuff
[07:15] <urlin2u> PythonPup, cool not ecrybody knows the refrence
[07:15] <hatch> linuxrealm: yeah better version?
[07:15] <BarBlitz> check /var/log/Xorg.log something
[07:15] <gry2> linuxrealm: It _does_ depend on what app it's being used for. Some apps need a certain version and will die out on other versions.
[07:15] <hatch> I need java for Netbeans :)
[07:16] <linuxrealm> it just works better, im not a java programmer, however, i have noticed when it comes to java and linux, that link has worked best for me for the  most uses
[07:16] <linuxrealm> gry2 agreed
[07:16] <gry2> Netbeans might die out if it asks apt and finds that java isn't available from there, but it depends.
[07:17] <nigelb> Hi, how do I see which swap file is being used?
[07:17] <nigelb> Like I know there's a swap file, but not where it is.
[07:17] <hatch> yeah I just removed java-common and it took everything else with it, trying to install the openjdk again
[07:17] <urlin2u> PythonPup, here is what I found, https://encrypted.google.com/search?sclient=psy&hl=en&site=webhp&source=hp&q=+way+to+make+notification+message+leave+the+screen+ubuntu&btnG=Search
[07:17] <linuxrealm> http://java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp?locale=en
[07:18] <hatch> blarg what junk, its still super laggy
[07:18] <linuxrealm> follow all the steps too
[07:18] <linuxrealm> little tricky
[07:18] <mis> hi
[07:18] <Guest3679> hi
[07:19] <gry2> Hi.
[07:19] <zagibu> glisstech: I just installed Ubuntu 11.04 created user1, then logged in and created user2 using gnome classic admin tools, logged out as user1, logged in as user2, plugged in USB stick and it worked just fine
[07:19] <PythonPup> urlin2u, Thanks.  I will try it after I bring my Natty machine back up.
[07:19] <Guest3679> I am not able to share the folder can you help me
[07:20] <BarBlitz> cat /proc/swaps
[07:20] <hatch> linuxrealm: ok I'll try a few more avenues before I call it quits :)
[07:20] <zagibu> glisstech: you probably broke something
[07:20] <MACscr> ok, so i have Ubuntu 10.4 LTS running as a xen guest. For some reason during the bootup, it says unknown partition table. Im a bit confused though as there shouldnt be a partition table. Any ideas why that might be?
[07:20] <Guest3679> python I my share folder is asking password ? i did asper that url
[07:21] <Guest3679> is there any one who can guide me set samab on ubuntu I am new to this
[07:21] <PythonPup> MACscr.  Sure, there should be a partition table.  The virtual machine sees a disk and partitions just like a real machine.  At least, in VirtualBox they do.  I expect XEN is the same.
[07:22] <PythonPup> Guest3679
[07:22] <Guest3679> yes
[07:22] <Guest3679> me !!
[07:22] <MACscr> Python: my point is that there are no partitions. The OS is one disk and the swap is another
[07:22] <Guest3679> can i explain what i have done?
[07:22] <PythonPup> Guest3679, I can help you with some basic samba setup.  You just want to share a directory, right?
[07:23] <Guest3679> see I have install ubuntu in 80gb wiht /boot and / , swap then i add 250gb hdd with ntfs partion on that
[07:23] <FreezingCold> What does gnome compile in the kernel of the LiveCD?
[07:23] <VillainVivi> Is there a guide out there for setting up Ubuntu as a calendar/email sever? I want to use it as a way my family can share calendar events, mostly, but local email would be great too
[07:23] <FreezingCold> *What does Ubuntu
[07:23] <Guest3679> later i install samba4
[07:24] <Guest3679> r u there! python?
[07:24] <rectec794613> where would i go for utouch-related support?
[07:24] <FreezingCold> What does Ubuntu compile in the kernel of the LiveCD?
[07:24] <Guest3679> i created folder in /opt name test wiht chmod 6777
[07:25] <PythonPup> Guest3679, 1st, if you refer to me, use my proper handle, or I am likely to miss the message.  Second, uninstall samba4 and install samba.  Third, please tell me you don't plan to do a lot of reads and writes under Ubuntu to an NTFS disk.
[07:25] <drona> arm cortex a8 Timer 0 SP804  any sample C code ?
[07:25] <Guest3679> ok
[07:26] <rectec794613> busy day?
[07:26] <PythonPup> Guest3679, samba4 is really more for experimenting with.  It is not production ready.
[07:26] <JokesOnYou77> PythonPup: I use a shared NTFS data partition and plan to do many writes to it.  Should I not?
[07:26] <Guest3679> pythonPup shall i uninstall samba4 ?
[07:27] <Guest3679> PythonPup !!and this is new thing do u mean to say ntfs don't support for samba
[07:27] <PythonPup> I would not trust Linux with a NTFS disk for more than trivial writes.  It is great for reading.  NTFS is not documented well.
[07:27] <cah_nd3so> ah
[07:28] <PythonPup> Guest3679, samba and ntfs are separate issues.  Anything the system can read and write reliably, samba can share.  NTFS under Linux is just not a good idea
[07:28] <rectec794613> PythonPup: Do you know anything about uTouch or know what channel I can go to to get support?
[07:29] <Guest3679> PythonPup !!ok let me know which file system is sutiable for samaba
[07:29] <PythonPup> I have never heard of uTouch, rectec794613
[07:29] <JokesOnYou77> PythonPup: I have been having some issues because I didn't understand how to set the mounting parameters when I installed.  I'm going to repartition and set up RAID 1 in a week or 2 but I was planning on sticking with NTFS for the shared partition as I still use Windows about 60% of the time
[07:29] <linuxrealm> im confused, are you writing to ntfs or ntfs to linux?
[07:30] <JokesOnYou77> If you have a better suggestion I'd be open to it
[07:30] <linuxrealm> ext3/4? what?
[07:30] <linuxrealm> reiser?
[07:30] <rectec794613> PythonPup: It's a multitouch trackpad gesture recognition tool for Ubuntu. Well I'll ask around as I see you have a lot of work to do :)
[07:30] <PythonPup> Guest3679, Any normal Linux filesystem.  I usually talk over with people how they plan to use their system before we pick a filesystem.  I suppose if I had to pick one, I'd go with XFS.  Certainly not ext3 or 4.
[07:31] <PythonPup> rectec794613, That sounds like it could be a handy device.  Good luck.
[07:31] <rectec794613> Persistence... Ok so anybody hear know how I can get uTouch up and running?
[07:32] <linuxrealm> rectec794613: up and running under ubuntu?
[07:32] <rectec794613> linuxrealm: yes
[07:32] <linuxrealm> stick around, someone will help out
[07:32] <linuxrealm> may take a while
[07:32] <rectec794613> k
[07:33] <rectec794613> There's not a special channel for this type of stuff?
[07:33] <JokesOnYou77> rectec794613: I don't know, but I've heard of it, and if you do get it figured out I would be extremely grateful if you could post a quick guide on the Ubuntu forums for those who come after you :)
[07:33] <PythonPup> JokesOnYou77, NTFS filesystems can be read fine in Linux.  I use Ubuntu to recover data off of them with no problem.  A little writing is even ok.  But a lot of writing tends to lead to corrupted NTFS volumes in my experience.  I would never set one up that way.
[07:33] <Guest3679> PythonPuP I am getting this error while createing filesystem
[07:34] <Guest3679> Error creating file system: Cannot run mkfs: cannot spawn 'mkfs.xfs -L "data" /dev/sdb1': Failed to execute child process "mkfs.xfs" (No such file or directory)
[07:34] <rectec794613> JokesOnYou77: Sure we'll see. I've noticed the shear lack of guides and/or interest on ubuntu multitouch. Would be glad to help out people.
[07:34] <linuxrealm> i think PythonPup meant on other linux distros not ubuntu, currently ubuntu defaults to ext4. if your mounting a diff fs, then thats a diff thing
[07:35] <PythonPup> Guest3679, Only root can make a filesystem, generally.  You need to do that as sudo.  And, be very careful to specify the right partition.
[07:35] <rectec794613> It is in fact a multitouch trackpad. Windows came preinstalled on my machine with Sintellic's utility
[07:35] <Guest3679> yes I have login in with root only
[07:35] <PythonPup> linuxrealm, I don't ever use ext4.  I know it has some uses, but I don't trust it.
[07:35] <rectec794613> Damn I hate the trackpad, though lol
[07:36] <Guest3679> PythonPup yes I have login in with root only
[07:36] <linuxrealm> rectec794613: hard to add hardware when not on the box, me only, lol.
[07:37] <linuxrealm> PythonPup:  im not that advanced to be picking about a fs lol
[07:37] <JokesOnYou77> PythonPup: Do you have a good suggestion for a file system to use for my shared data partition?  I use it to store virtually all filetypes, text, pictures, music, some video (most movies are on an external), and I use my system for all sorts of things.  But I continue to use Windows so that I can use SolidWorks, Mathematica, Matlab, WinEdt, and Netfilx.  If I can get it working, my new setup...
[07:37] <JokesOnYou77> ...will use ViruaBox to run each OS as a vmdk in the other OS
[07:38] <PythonPup> Guest3679, so the command you should issue is something like   mkfs -t xfs /dev/sdb1
[07:38] <rectec794613> linuxrealm: I think the hardware is fine, I ran evtest on event7, and found out that that was the trackpad
[07:38] <linuxrealm> JokesOnYou77: solidworks, thats pretty advanced cad stuff there
[07:38] <PythonPup> JokesOnYou77, What type of data will you be storing?  Will there be a lot of files in any 1 directory?  How large a files?
[07:38] <JokesOnYou77> rectec794613: My desire is to get either a magic trackpad to work or, preferably, get my android phone to function as a magic trackpad :)
[07:39] <rawfodog> Whats a good program for ubuntu to find and clean duplicate files ? I have a bunch of pdfs and pictures that are the same but have different file names.
[07:39] <linuxrealm> sighs, i dont have a trackpad or android to play with....
[07:39] <Guest3679> PythonPup Is on /dev/sdb but still error
[07:39] <rectec794613> JokesOnYou77: What exactly is a magic trackpad? I've heard about it but I don't know what it is.
[07:40] <linuxrealm> PythonPup: i use xfs on bsd. mounting no problem. but linux, i havent tried or had the need to yet, let alone know the differences lol
[07:40] <linuxrealm> i figure the maintainers chose the fs for a reason per distro
[07:40] <PythonPup> linuxrealm, Most people won't see a problem with ext3 or 4.  I understand that.  I have seen major problems with either.  I also consider both to be unfinished hacks.  But, I think the filesystem discussion may be deemed off topic here.
[07:41] <rectec794613> Can't even figure out how to start utouch
[07:41] <rectec794613> Running "utouch" doesn't work...
[07:41] <JokesOnYou77> PythonPup: I will be storing all filetypes, with no particular preference: documents, large raw spreadsheets, 100s of pdfs, then pictures, and mybe 50GB of music, then videos, and about 25 GB of iso files.  I will have many large (3 GB+) continuous files.
[07:41] <rectec794613> I assume you have to configure something, maybe get a service started. But what?
[07:42] <PythonPup> Guest3679, please do a fdisk -l /dev/sdb    and post the results to a pastebin.
[07:42] <JokesOnYou77> rectec794613: It's a lttle piece of Apple goodness: http://www.apple.com/magictrackpad/
[07:43] <rectec794613> JokesOnYou77: oh yeah, I saw people using that on some youtube videos
[07:43] <cpe22> hello
[07:43] <cpe22> from the hell
[07:43] <_vaibhav_> I have my hp laserjet 1020 printer, and its driver(.ko) file, i just want to make it work as when i connect my printer it should automatically load my driver module, can you please suggest me how i can acheive this?
[07:43] <rectec794613> JokesOnYou77: Would be stupid to use a trackpad on a desk if not for OS X being so gesture-centric
[07:44] <cpe22> use windows
[07:44] <PythonPup> JokesOnYou77, I'd probably go xfs in your case.  ext3 is definitely out.  reaiser3 might be OK, although I need to check one thing before I'd go with that.
[07:44] <Guest3679> PythonPup ! r u there?
[07:44] <rectec794613> cpe22: I use doors, thank you very much
[07:44] <PythonPup> Guest3679, No, I am here.
[07:44] <fuzzybunny69y1> hey guys does anyone know if it is possible to recursively replace all the _'s in filename with a space using bash?
[07:45] <Guest3679> PythonPup!!I am getting same error
[07:45] <JokesOnYou77> rectec794613: I use a projector and XBMC and other media center apps and I'd really love a getture-type trackpad to control them.  Next step is really just to use a Wii-mote, but I'd really prefer to use my phone for everything :P
[07:45] <PythonPup> Guest3679, please do a fdisk -l /dev/sdb    and post the results to a pastebin.
[07:46] <Lint> fuzzybunny69y1, why recursively?
[07:46] <PythonPup> The newest kernels have support for the kinect.  Why even hold a remote.  Use gestures.
[07:46] <linuxrealm> rectec794613: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Multitouch
[07:46] <linuxrealm> middle of page
[07:46] <JokesOnYou77> fuzzybunny69y1: It is possible, tho I don't actually know how.  But there is a good reason there are _s and not spaces, It's so that they can be read as a single file name, very important to some applications
[07:46] <fuzzybunny69y1> Lint: I have all these files in folders that have _'s that I want to replace with spaces
[07:47] <Guest3679> PythonPup how to do that pastbin ?
[07:47] <BarBlitz> yes, for f in *.ext;do f2="echo $f | sed \"s/_/ /g\"";mv -i "$f" "$f2";done
[07:47] <zagibu> crap
[07:47] <Guest3679> PythonPup !!I mean how to use Pastbin
[07:47] <fuzzybunny69y1> I am trying to compare the files and it won't for if they have different names
[07:47] <rectec794613> linuxrealm: already there... ok I'll look closely. Lemme get my Compiz brand magnifying glass
[07:47] <linuxrealm> sudo apt-get install pastebinit

[07:48] <Newbuntu> Hey guys, I'm fairly new to Ubuntu and was wondering which guides are the best too look at for beginners?

[07:49] <linuxrealm> whereis dhcpd.conf
[07:49] <rectec794613> linuxrealm: So uTouch doesn't support the ol' Sintellic's?

[07:49] <linuxrealm> i have not clue rectec794613 just did a quick google to get you started
[07:49] <Lint> uname tells me I'm on 3.0.0-7, is it normal?
[07:49] <PythonPup> JokesOnYou77, reiser3 is a nice filesystem, that has a couple of downsides.  It is very good with large numbers of files.  I don't remember what the maximum filesize it can handle is.
[07:49] <Dogears> Thanks
[07:50] <BarBlitz> I'm on Slackware
[07:50] <fuzzybunny69y1> BarBlitz: was that command for me to run

[07:50] <fuzzybunny69y1> that one
[07:50] <BarBlitz> myn is in /etc
[07:51] <PythonPup> Guest3679, So, what error do you get when doing the mkfs command I gave you?
[07:51] <rectec794613> linuxrealm: Wouldn't be surprised if they aren't. Would be nice if they did, because that would mean every single MSI laptop/netbook user would be able to use multitouch on ubuntu
[07:51] <BarBlitz> erm /usr/src/linux-*/Documentation/fs/reiserfs.txt I guess
[07:51] <JokesOnYou77> PythonPup: Ahh, that is important, like FAT, that's part of why I went with NTFS the first time around.  Is there any chance of ext4?
[07:51] <BarBlitz> yes
[07:51] <BarBlitz> change .ext to .mp3 or whatever

[07:53] <linuxrealm> rectec794613: give it a month, i will come online to linux, and since ubuntu is linux, well, you will be able to use it. just give it sometime, if it isnt already available. search deeper into google is my only suggestion, and multitouch maybe a keyword... its all about keywords lol
[07:53] <IdleOne> Python1320: oneiric is not the latest version, yet.

[07:53] <IdleOne> PythonPup: ^^

So I installed it using wine, unfortunatly  when I open some documetns word saves my lasty work and then restarts. It does this over and over again. can any one help
[08:01] <Guest3679> PythonPup !! I removed samba4 and Instilling samba only is it ok
[08:01] <Lint> Tank852, use virtual machine instead
[08:02] <PythonPup> Guest3679, No, that's not next.  Next we add the filesystem to fstab so it will be there next boot.
[08:02] <Tank852> Lint: thats very slow isn't it?
[08:02] <PythonPup> Guest3679, Yes, uninstall samba4 and install samba
[08:02] <Pingviller> Tank852: I would use openoffice, while writing, and then edit it before submitting it using a normal windows machine with office, or virtual machine as Lint said
[08:02] <Lint> Tank852, it shouldn't be _very_ slow
[08:03] <Guest3679> PythonPut How to add filesystem to fstab
[08:03] <Tank852> lol, so their isn't a trick to MS office on ubuntu. damn... Okay thanks guys
[08:03] <PythonPup> Guest3679, post your current /etc/fstab to a pastebin.  I'll modify it and send it back to you.
[08:04] <urlin2u> Tank852, with a paper like that I would not mess around make it easy.
[08:04] <linuxrealm> tank852 use libreoffice!!!
[08:04] <linuxrealm> good grief
[08:04] <visof> hello
[08:04] <visof> i have that message "Disk failure is imminent"
[08:04] <Lint> linuxrealm, i wouldn't use lo even to write grocery list
[08:04] <visof> what that mean ?
[08:04] <lion42> ...
[08:05] <Lint> visof, it's your SMART sensors
[08:05] <Guest3679> PythonPup!! http://pastebin.com/CWsJcmDW
[08:05] <PythonPup> Guest3679,    basically, I'll add     /dev/sdb1    /public    xfs     relatime      1  2
[08:05] <VolodymyrB> Hi in /etc/resolv.conf i have line "# Generated by NetworkManager \n nameserver 192.168.0.1" so its always generated by NetworkManager and І want there line "nameserver 127.0.0.1" please help
[08:05] <FreezingCold> What's the safest way to restart OpenSSH?  I'm connecting over SSH btw.
[08:05] <PythonPup> Guest3679, What is the mount point where you want this drive to mount?
[08:07] <PythonPup> Guest3679, Do you understand my question?
[08:07] <linuxrealm> sudo service ssh restart
[08:07] <Guest3679> PythonPup !! /dev/sdb1	/opt/data	xfs	relatime 	1	2 is this ok
[08:07] <linuxrealm> id log in with another session first though
[08:08] <Guest3679> PythonPup !! Mount put I want put in /opt/data because I want share data folder to windows user's
[08:08] <PythonPup> Yes, that looks fine, Guest3679.  You do need to make the directory /opt/data before you can mount.
[08:08] <lion42> visof, are your files on that drive backed up?
[08:08] <Guest3679> PythonPup! Yes I have done it
[08:09] <linuxrealm> im out
[08:09] <linuxrealm> enjoy
[08:09] <linuxrealm> l8
[08:09] <visof> hi
[08:09] <PythonPup> Guest3679, You will just make an empty directory there.  OK, then save the /etc/fstab and reboot.  I want to know that the filesystem comes up before we go on.
[08:09] <lion42> visof, are your files on that hard drive backed up?
[08:09] <visof> lion42: i should backup all files on that harddisk ?
[08:09] <lion42> ...
[08:09] <visof> lion42: i need to do that
[08:09] <lion42> That would be a no.
[08:10] <lion42> Turn off the computer immediately, take it to a reputable computer repair service or person.
[08:10] <lion42> Do not attempt to back up anything at home if you value your data.
[08:10] <Guest3679> PythonPup !! I got error on samba have a look mean time I will reboot  !! http://pastebin.com/FR0bDcuC
[08:10] <visof> lion42: ok
[08:10] <visof> i should turn it off
[08:10] <_fury> Is there any grafical diff programm in the ubuntu repository? Sth. like xdiff?
[08:10] <visof> bye
[08:11] <iceroot_> _fury: k3diff als see "apt-cache search diff"
[08:11] <Pingviller> Hey :) is there any way to repair the config files for a LAMP-stack, if you're unsure why it's suddenly not working anymore? I kinda wanna start from scratch, config-wise, without having to re-install it all
[08:11] <Pingviller> it's the apache2 that doesn't wanna start anymore btw
[08:11] <_fury> thank you very much!
[08:11] <Myrtti> _fury: meld
[08:11] <iceroot_> _fury: there should be also gvimdiff
[08:12] <tp43> what is the 'backend' process?
[08:13] <Guest3679> pythonPup !! Overall motive is to rsyn the two pc one (already having centos and folder is share for all windows use who can past the folder&files but no onc can delete any thing in that ) other ubuntu I want to do same thing and sync realtime to safe the data
[08:13] <tp43> I have some backend process using up over 90% of my cpu
[08:14] <PythonPup> Guest3679, Is english your native language?
[08:14] <Guest3679> PythonPup !! sorry for that !
[08:14] <slk> how does our company site look
[08:14] <slk> http://142.150.3.96/~sameer/cmg/index_kwiks.html
[08:14] <slk> any tips?
[08:15] <PythonPup> slk, put something in the big empty space near the top.  The menus work pretty well, though.
[08:16] <slk> ok
[08:16] <slk> thank you <3
[08:16] <Guest3679> PythonPup!! fine its mounted automatically
[08:16] <PythonPup> slk, the contact us infor is too hard to read.  It needs more contrast with the background.
[08:16] <slk> ok cool
[08:17] <Guest3679> PythonPup ! what about samba?
[08:17] <urlin2u> tp43, top in the termina will show you whats running
[08:17] <slk> u guys like the logo i made?
[08:17] <Myrtti> PythonPup, slk: please, this is Ubuntu support channel...
[08:18] <Guest3679> PythonPup! I have install samba
[08:18] <PythonPup> Good, Guest3679 please post you /etc/samba/smb.conf to a pastebin.  I know it is new, but you are running a different version of Ubuntu than I am, and I want to start from a proper one for you.
[08:18] <slk> im hosting this on ubuntu
[08:18] <slk> so its relevant
[08:18] <IdleOne> slk: no it isn't
[08:18] <slk> can i make love to u
[08:18] <IdleOne> your website has nothing to do with Ubuntu support
[08:19] <antnash> slk: logo's good, centre image is too narrow, I'm sorry I don't swing that way. Maybe Madame Palm and her 5 daughters can help you out.
[08:20] <Guest3679> PythonPup! http://pastebin.com/WHfN8uFB
[08:22] <Duelisti> I have 10.04 netbook edition and I'm trying to figure out how to install namebar (0.5) for it. I'm only able to find tar.gz files and I don't know how to install them. Help?
[08:23] <Lint> Duelisti, unpack, configure, compile, install
[08:25] <Duelisti> Oh, should I compress it into another file type, Lint?
[08:26] <PythonPup> Guest3679,   I would start with something like this.
[08:26] <Lint> Duelisti, no, just extract the folder looking like 'somename-1.2.3'
[08:27] <PythonPup> Guest3679, you probably want to change the sharename, the netbios name, and the hosts allow.  But, you likely should put something in each of those.
[08:27] <Guest3679> PythonPup !! Ok
[08:27] <Duelisti> An then what, Lint?
[08:28] <Lint> Duelisti, then inspect it contents and see if 'configure' is present
[08:29] <Guest3679> PythonPop !! I can change sharename !!
[08:29] <Duelisti> no, there's only themes-folder, GNOME_NameBarApplet and namebar.py
[08:30] <urlin2u> Duelisti, a deb at the bottom of the page as well. http://www.webupd8.org/2010/01/namebar-05-gnome-applet-released.html
[08:31] <Duelisti> It doesn't work, urlin2u
[08:31] <urlin2u> Duelisti, what doesn't?
[08:31] <Duelisti> the url to the deb.-file
[08:32] <Duelisti> well, I'll try the installation instructions there
[08:32] <urlin2u> Duelisti, I didn't try it hmm I will look some more.
[08:34] <Arthur> Could somebody help me? I'm using my father's webcam in my computer, it used to record the voice too, but it seems like if it didn't work in this comp.
[08:34] <Arthur> I checked in a terminal if it was detected and it appears here: Bus 004 Device 007: ID 045e:00f7 Microsoft Corp. LifeCam VX-1000
[08:35] <smw> Is it possible to use ipsec from the gnome network manager?
[08:35] <Guest3679> PythonPup!! I will be back with in 10min
[08:35] <urlin2u> Duelisti, yeah the launchpad version is a tar.
[08:36] <Duelisti> I got it working with the instruction at the site you gave me
[08:36] <Duelisti> Thanks a lot
[08:37] <urlin2u> Duelisti, I figured that would work looked correct.
[08:37] <Duelisti> yeah
[08:38] <PythonPup> smw, I am pretty sure the answer is no, at least not yet.  You should look for a network manager plugin for ipsec vpns
[08:39] <smw> PythonPup, yeah, just saw the package network-manager-strongswan.
[08:40] <Arthur> could somebody help me? the camera works well, I can take photos in the comp using cheese, but I can't record the voice
[08:40] <Arthur> in my father's comp I could record the voice with the cma
[08:40] <Arthur> cam*
[08:43] <Dogears> Where do you go we you are told to ¨check syslog for diagnostics¨ ?
[08:45] <PythonPup> Arthur, do you see the camera if you go to the sound preferences in Ubuntu?
[08:47] <sweener> Can someone tell me what the difference is when mounting an iso image with the the command "mount -o loop foo.iso /media" compared to "mount -ro loop foo.iso /media"?
[08:47] <Arthur> PythonPup, yeah I do
[08:48] <PythonPup> Arthur, is it selected as the current input?  If not, try that and see if it records.
[08:48] <Moshanator> sweener, the r in -ro means read-only
[08:49] <Arthur> I've just selected it, but it still records nothing
[08:49] <Arthur> hmm
[08:49]  * szal doesn't think there is a real-world difference..  @ sweener
[08:49] <PythonPup>  Arthur, you may need to adjust the volume.
[08:50] <PythonPup> Arthur, I don't have a camera.  Those are the settings I would look at.
[08:50] <sweener> Moshanator thanks. I assume the -ro option would be the correct way then
[08:50] <Moshanator> szal is right though, iso filesystems are read-only anyway you mount them
[08:51] <Moshanator> but yeah, you should know that when mounting anything else
[08:52] <sweener> so I could just mount an iso with the command "mount loop foo.iso /media"
[08:53] <wolfric> how come apt-get shows that a package is uninstalled (after i just did apt-get remove but dpkg -l | grep package shows it still being there.
[08:53] <PythonPup> Arthur, see http://www.whoisdeep.com/2010/09/06/getting-microsoft-lifecam-vx-1000-working-on-ubuntu-skype/     Don't just apply that patch.  That is for 10.04 and may not even be the latest.
[08:53] <wolfric> i want to force a brand new fresh install of a package (in my case solr-jetty)
[08:53] <Arthur> Thanks PythonPup, I'll read it ^^
[08:54] <PythonPup> wolfric, in Synaptic, you can choose to reinstall an installed package.
[08:54] <PythonPup> Arther, the girl is cute, too.
[08:54] <sweb> what is the best programm for remove bad sectors from my hard ?
[08:54] <wolfric> PythonPup: i've removed some config files but i've also apt-get removed the package (jetty) however on apt-get install, the config files arne't recreated
[08:55] <wolfric> PythonPup: how can i solve this?
[08:56] <PythonPup> wolfric, I'd start by using Synaptic and doing a completely remove.  Then, reinstall.  Waht is the package?
[08:56] <wolfric> PythonPup: jetty
[08:57] <PythonPup> sweb, a dremel tool is good.  Seriously, the only program I would use is SpinRite from Steve Gibson.
[08:59] <sweb> PythonPup, what about dban ?
[08:59] <PythonPup> wolfric, I don't do javamuch at all.  There seems to be one config file.  That probably is recreated fine.  But, there is probably some relation to httpd.conf or similar and you will have to work that out by hand, I expect.
[08:59] <SpiderFred> hi I am using lynx in my terminal but it cant display some characters of my language(czech) and I am not sure what to do.
[09:00] <wolfric> PythonPup: that worked thanks. is there an equiv in apt-get? apt-get purge?
[09:00] <PythonPup> dban is a great tool for wiping disks.  It is not so great for testing a disk for bad sectors.
[09:00] <PythonPup> wolfric, yes, but I don't know it off hand.
[09:01] <PythonPup> wolfric, apt-get purge should do it, as you said.
[09:01] <Arthur> thank you so much, PythonPup, I'll reboot now
[09:01] <Duelisti> When I go to Appearance Preferences -> Visual Effects and change from 'none' to 'normal' or 'extra', the system transitions to it and I select 'keep settings'. Nothing seems to change, though and once I close appearance preferences and start it up again, visual effects are back to 'none' again. What's the problem?
[09:05] <agronholm> hi, I have intermittent thunderbird, firefox and eclipse crashes
[09:05] <agronholm> the windows simply disappear
[09:06] <Moshanator> sweener: no, you still have to use -o. It stands for "option" and means that anything following will be an option, in your case, loop.
[09:06] <agronholm> any idea how common this is? ubuntu 11.10
[09:06] <agronholm> 64-bit
[09:06] <sagaci> agronholm, try #ubuntu+1
[09:07] <agronholm> why?
[09:07] <agronholm> err, sorry
[09:07] <wilder> i thought 11.04 was the most recent
[09:07] <agronholm> 11.04
[09:07] <dumbo88> are the processes still running?
[09:07] <agronholm> no
[09:08] <wilder> is it final?
[09:08] <agronholm> I'm running 11.04
[09:08] <agronholm> natty
[09:08] <wilder> ok
[09:08] <sagaci> agronholm, what version of firefox and thunderbird are you running
[09:08] <wilder> confused cleared
[09:08] <agronholm> the latest from ubuntu repos
[09:08] <agronholm> I think
[09:09] <sagaci> what does firefox --version output
[09:09] <dumbo88> sagaci odd are stable?
[09:09] <dpac> Hey guys. I have two laptops - one new and one old. The old one has its keyboard non-functional but everything else works fine. I want to be able to use that laptop using my newer laptop. Something like when I press ctrl+alt+f9, the older's display comes on my screen. I know this is possible using Xorg but I don't know how. Any help is appreciated
[09:09] <agronholm> I'm running firefox 6.0 and thunderbird 6.0
[09:10] <wilder> dpac, DESTORY IT
[09:10] <Guest3679> PythonPup! I am back
[09:10] <PythonPup> Guest3679, Congratulations
[09:10] <dpac> wilder: I would if it solved my problem :D
[09:11] <wilder> It'd make you feel better about it, that's for sure.
[09:11] <dumbo88> try a ps/2 keyboard to set things up
[09:11] <Guest3679> PythonPup I am sorry to keep wait!!
[09:12] <agronholm> sagaci: I've experienced these intermittent crashes since I installed 11.04
[09:12] <PythonPup> dumbo88, Or, a USB keyboard, depending on the laptop.
[09:12] <agronholm> with firefox 4.0 too
[09:12] <agronholm> and only those three apps crash like that
[09:13] <dumbo88> agroholm did you run anti-virus?
[09:13] <agronholm> please don't mock me
[09:13] <dumbo88> :-P
[09:14] <Guest3679> PythonPup!! did you check smaba.conf
[09:15] <PythonPup> I posted the new one for you a while back, Guest3679
[09:16] <VxQf> agronholm, Maybe try reinstalling relevant shared libraries?
[09:16] <VxQf> xulrunner I think is used by both ff and tb
[09:16] <VxQf> that are probably heaps more though
[09:16] <agronholm> eclipse does not use xulrunner afaik...
[09:16] <VxQf> true
[09:17] <insmod> dumbo88: lol linux can't get a virus
[09:17] <Guest3679> PythonPup ! can u do it agin ?
[09:18] <VxQf> insmod, yes it can. :P
[09:18] <insmod> VxQf: no
[09:18] <VxQf> Just because no one writes viruses for it doesn't mean it can't get them.
[09:18] <VxQf> Security by obscurity is not security. :_
[09:18] <VxQf> :)
[09:18] <insmod> VxQf:  idiot
[09:19] <Moshanator> insmod, trolling much?
[09:19] <VxQf> lol
[09:19] <PythonPup> Guest3679, http://pastebin.com/diff.php?i=T7sQWQyM
[09:19] <lion42> My linuxes have many viruses.
[09:19] <lion42> It gets a yearly influenza vaccine, though.
[09:19] <insmod> VxQf:  nothing can write to root -- even if they wrote it just del the conf
[09:19] <VxQf> ....Ok.
[09:19] <PythonPup> Guest3679, Or http://pastebin.com/T7sQWQyM
[09:20] <Moshanator> insmod, unless you give it root privileges, and grandma will
[09:20] <insmod> Moshanator: whatever you sound like and moron
[09:20] <insmod> Moshanator: troll
[09:21] <VxQf> insmod, if you have a question you should ask it. :)
[09:21] <insmod> VxQf:  thanks

[09:26] <felipe1337> Hello, anyone with experience in Audacity?
[09:26] <wilder> Wildy_, nice name bro
[09:26] <felipe1337> i'm unable to record from my soundboard, anyone able to help me with that?
[09:26] <Hyperbyte> !anyone | felipe1337
[09:26] <PythonPup> felipe1337, I use audacity, but I don't get too fancy with it.
[09:26] <Wildy_> wilder, hmm
[09:27] <insmod> felipe1337; arour is best
[09:27] <insmod> felipe1337; ardour is best
[09:27] <insmod> sorry
[09:27] <Wildy_> actually 'wildy' is my nickname too
[09:27] <felipe1337> better than audacity?
[09:27] <felipe1337> sweet
[09:27] <Wildy_> ok, let's assume that _ is my tail xD
[09:27] <Pingviller> Greetings! I'm having some problems with configuring the 000-default file for apache2, to get it to work with phpmyadmin as well as request ticket 4... http://pastebin.com/FMpnUHn9 please advice on how to make it properly configured
[09:27] <insmod> http://ardour.org/
[09:28] <wilder> Wildy_,  Wilder has been my nickname for years, IRL
[09:28] <felipe1337> thanks
[09:28] <felipe1337> will try it
[09:28] <PythonPup> insmod, so in handtools, a screwdriver is better than a hammer?  Ardour is quite different from audacity.
[09:28] <felipe1337> hope it's not too professional for me
[09:28] <insmod> felipe1337; http://ardour.org/    and check out all the jack toys and ladspa and hydrogen etc
[09:29] <agronholm> I don't know what to do with these crashes
[09:29] <felipe1337> it's probably got more plugins than i can actually use
[09:29] <agronholm> I don't even get a SIGSEGV on the console
[09:29] <insmod> PythonPup: thanks
[09:29] <jamiewan> felipe1337: audacity is great for simple stuff ardour is much more pro orientated
[09:29] <insmod> agronholm: what is the prob -- what happens
[09:29] <wilder> If the limit of 32 bit operating systems are 3gb, can i run ubuntu with 3gb, and alot the rest into virtual machines or would it not be able to use the extra memory at all?
[09:30] <agronholm> insmod: the app just quits
[09:30] <wilder> allot*
[09:30] <insmod> agronholm: what does
[09:30] <agronholm> sometimes on its own, sometimes in response to a keypress
[09:30] <felipe1337> guess that's why i use audacity
[09:30] <agronholm> firefox, thunderbird and eclipse
[09:30] <PythonPup> wilder, you can't address more than 3.5 gb of ram with a 32 bit Intel CPU.
[09:30] <wilder> blast
[09:30] <dpac> wilder: 32bit OS can only address 32bit memory. You can't use the rest memory inside a 32bit OS.
[09:30] <agronholm> I can reproduce the thunderbird crash
[09:30] <voxic> wilder: you need a 64-bit host
[09:31] <insmod> agronholm: upgrade new install  ?
[09:31] <agronholm> insmod: huh?
[09:31] <agronholm> ah
[09:31] <agronholm> upgrade
[09:31] <insmod> agronholm: did you upgrade or is it a fresh install
[09:31] <dpac> wilder: However, look into PAE. It works fine for my friend.
[09:31] <agronholm> I already said upgrade
[09:31] <dpac> wilder: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension
[09:32] <insmod> agronholm: k that is the prob
[09:32] <Guest3679> PythonPup! I have copy smb.conf, restarted  and I able to open the data folder from network but I can't copy or creat f&F
[09:32] <agronholm> insmod: are you sure? where does this info come from?
[09:32] <agronholm> and what should I do to fix it?
[09:32] <insmod> agronholm: delete the old config files in ~/name
[09:32] <wilder> dpac, looks like it will be easier to reinstall
[09:32] <wilder> into 64bit
[09:33] <agronholm> insmod: what config files? surely not all of them?
[09:33] <PythonPup> Guest3679, That is not a valid filename you are trying to create
[09:34] <insmod> agronholm: the hidden ones in the users dir -- they are dot files -- hiden --- i use mc
[09:34] <Guest3679> PythonPup !!Mean;s?
[09:34] <voxic> Guest3679: check autentication settings in smb.conf
[09:34] <dumbo88> !samba
[09:34] <PythonPup> Guest3679, what do you get from   ls -l /opt
[09:35] <voxic> Guest3679: and check file permissions on the shared folder
[09:36] <dumbo88> !virus
[09:36] <Guest3679> PythonPup! http://pastebin.com/URmYcEfg
[09:38] <PythonPup> Guest3679, like voxic said, it is ownership.   Try  chown nobody:nogroup /opt/data
[09:38] <PythonPup> Then try creating a file there through samba, Guest3679
[09:39] <Pingviller> Greetings! I'm having some problems with configuring the 000-default file for apache2, to get it to work with phpmyadmin as well as request ticket 4... http://pastebin.com/FMpnUHn9 please advice on how to make it properly configured
[09:39] <voxic>  http://pastebin.com/URmYcEfg
[09:40] <agronholm> insmod: anything more specific? has someone fixed their crash problems this way?
[09:41] <agronholm> strange that I'm not even getting a core dump though I enabled them
[09:41] <insmod> agronholm: I have since 1995
[09:41] <PythonPup> Oh, do you want core dumps.  We can probably come up with neat ways to get those.
[09:41] <voxic> Pingviller: your current config only allows connection to phpmyadmin from the localhost(the server itself)
[09:42] <dc5ala> Pingviller, i recommend not using the default file, disable it via a2dissite and create a new one
[09:42] <agronholm> PythonPup: I can't understand what's happening
[09:42] <jayz> hello people
[09:42] <agronholm> the app just quits
[09:42] <ActionParsnip> hi jayz
[09:42] <agronholm> in fact it doesn't even seem to crash
[09:42] <insmod> agronholm: trust me -- or back it up then do it
[09:42] <ActionParsnip> agronholm: what if you launch it from terminal?
[09:42] <agronholm> I did
[09:42] <Stuhr> It seems that Python is pretty popular, but how is it compared to c++ or c#?
[09:42] <jayz> i have some doubts ..could u help me out..?
[09:42] <agronholm> no messages, no core dump, no nothing
[09:42] <ActionParsnip> Stuhr: I'd ask in their respective channels
[09:43] <voxic> Stuhr: Python is much more simple
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> agronholm: is there a verbose output option?
[09:43] <insmod> agronholm: any way that's how  -- good luck
[09:43] <agronholm> ActionParsnip: in thunderbird?
[09:43] <PythonPup> agronholm, I have not been following your problem well. And, I'll be leaving soon.  An app quiting could be an app problem.  Or, it could be a motherboard problem, Or a memory problem, or a hard disk problem.
[09:43] <voxic> Stuhr: check out http://learnpythonthehardway.org for good ref
[09:43] <dumbo88> is the screensaver activating?
[09:43] <Guest3679> PythonPup ! after using  chown nobody:nogroup /opt/data I am able to create & delete folder & file in windows
[09:43] <yash> Hi, I need a help regarding PCL printer support using LPrng. Can any one let me know how to implement PCL printer?
[09:43] <agronholm> Python1320: only three specific apps do that
[09:44] <agronholm> so I'm pretty sure it's a software problem
[09:44] <jayz> installing java plugin for firefox in ubuntu natty...
[09:44] <Pingviller> voxic: you're right, it actually works from the host machine. how do I make it possible to access from other IP's?
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> agronholm: how about: thunderbird -safe-mode
[09:44] <agronholm> doesn't that just disable plugins?
[09:44] <agronholm> also, firefox and eclipse do the same
[09:44] <agronholm> often when unattended
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> jayz: what about it?
[09:44] <voxic> Pingviller: change the line "Allow from" to include your network
[09:45] <jayz> @action.. hello?
[09:45] <Guest3679> PythonPup!! any solution ?
[09:45] <ActionParsnip> jayz: are you having issues with java?
[09:45] <PythonPup> Guest3679, good.  Now, save that config file(/etc/samba/smb.conf)  Start experimenting from there with your other requirements.  I believe you had some odd thing about copying the files in a way they could not be deleted by the user.(Or was that someone else?)  Anyway, I have to quit and go home.
[09:45] <jasonmsp> Wirlesss USB adapter issue -> establishing an ad-hoc connection.  iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc =  'Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) : SET failed on device wlan0 ;'
[09:45] <jasonmsp> lshw:  driverversion=2.6.38-11-generic-pae....  Should i try a different driver?
[09:45] <agronholm> ActionParsnip: some clues -- thunderbird exits with code 1 when it quits abnormally
[09:45] <jayz> i installed  jre .. i have issues in installing the java plugin for firefox
[09:45] <voxic> Pingviller: if you have the ip 192.168.1.23 type Allow from 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0
[09:46] <PythonPup> Guest3679, solution to what?  You said you could create files.  That is the goal.
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> jayz: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ferramroberto/java; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin
[09:46] <jayz> i created the symbolic link but firefox doesn't load it..
[09:46] <Guest3679> PythonPup !! NOOOOO !! they can creat file and & folder But I should not allow to delete
[09:47] <Pingviller> voxic: actually I'd like it to allow all, but where do I paste it? and is it still in the 000-default or the apache.conf for phpmyadmin?
[09:47] <voxic> Guest3679: use the creat_mask setting in smb.conf
[09:47] <insmod> jayz: your path is wrong
[09:47] <jayz> how to copy from this chatroom?
[09:47] <Guest3679> PythonPup!! the whole IDEA was that
[09:47] <PythonPup> Guest3679, I can't stay to go through that part with you. See http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2001-October/030781.html
[09:48] <voxic> Pingviller: it int the 000-default, change the line Allow from 127... to your network
[09:48] <jayz> ok . . i'm new here.. tel me how to copy text from this chat screen?
[09:48] <Guest3679> voxic how to use that shall i copy smb.conf
[09:48] <PythonPup> Guest3679, That was your whole idea, perhaps.  I got you started on it, I think.
[09:48] <jamiewan> jayz: highlight the text u want, then right click,windows,save text
[09:48] <ActionParsnip> jayz: the command I gave will make everything ok
[09:49] <ActionParsnip> jayz: which client?
[09:49] <ActionParsnip> jayz: or use method 2 here, same text http://www.webupd8.org/2011/03/install-java-in-ubuntu-1104-natty.html
[09:49] <Guest3679> PythonPUp I have used that like but no luck
[09:49] <jayz> i'm just running this directly from en.irc2g0.com
[09:49] <Guest3679> Pythopup I have used that link but no luck
[09:50] <Pingviller> http://pastebin.com/MitTgaAy this is how my 000-default looks like now, with phpmyadmin working locally... http://pastebin.com/ZSKwF0qW is how the phpmyadmin conf file looks like
[09:50] <jayz> @action ok .. i'm running this chat from windows because i couldn't install java on linux
[09:50] <ActionParsnip> jayz: select the text and press CTRL+C
[09:51] <ActionParsnip> jayz: in duckduckgo (and probably google) search for: natty java    works well
[09:51] <voxic> Guest3679: check this ref: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/manpages-3/smb.conf.5.html
[09:52] <jayz> @action ok man.. will try that out and let u know.. thanks
[09:52] <jesse__> installed new distro, grub didn't work right - doesn't detect windows. help?
[09:52] <voxic> Pingviller: it's in the config file where you have your phpmyadmin alias config
[09:53] <Danny> hi
[09:53] <Danny> I've got a problem with Lubuntu; installer crashes... ...please help
[09:55] <jesse__> I'm reading through a grub how-to but it seems over my head. is there a way to redo a setup? or am i going to manually fix a config file?
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> Danny: did you <D5 test the ISO you downloaded?
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> jesse__: http://www.robertbeal.com/562/rebuilding-grub2-grub-cfg-from-ubuntu-live-cd
[09:56] <Pingviller> voxic: http://pastebin.com/hPKYXwcQ looks like this, and doesn't work from other IP's, still works internally
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> Danny: *MD5
[09:57] <Danutz> I didn't...
[09:57] <Guest3679> voxic I din't uderstand that link !!
[09:58] <jesse__> ActionParsnip, can I do this from hard disk linux boot, or do i need to reboot into a live disk?
[10:00] <TheLemonMan> yo
[10:00] <TheLemonMan> i have some issues with my orbicam and the gspca driver
[10:00] <ActionParsnip> jesse__: I would use liveCD
[10:00] <ActionParsnip> TheLemonMan: what issues?
[10:01] <TheLemonMan> it doesnt work at all in cheese
[10:01] <TheLemonMan> it gets recognized at /dev/video0
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> TheLemonMan: if you run:  lsusb    you will get an 8 character hex ID which you can use to find guides
[10:01] <jesse__> ActionParsnip, I saw at the bottom where it said if you can boot do update-grub. I ran it and it listed windows as detected. I'll try a reboot. thanks for the help
[10:01] <TheLemonMan> but when i launch cheese the first time it gets disconnected from the usb bus and re-appears as /dev/video1
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> _jesse_: np :)
[10:01] <Lint> where can O complain about livecd content?
[10:04] <Pingviller> voxic: Thanks for the help, I'm just gonna use it from localhost and hope I don't need access from outside ;)
[10:05] <Dan_E> any good uninstallers out there?
[10:08] <auronandace> Dan_E: you use the package management system to install and uninstall things
[10:08] <Phylock> Dan_E - uninstallers??
[10:09] <Dan_E> thank you auronandace
[10:14] <ActionParsnip> quiet today

[10:20] <jayz> what i mean is that ,
[10:21] <grifo74> hello how i update my bios?

[10:21] <ActionParsnip> jayz: what video chip are you using?
[10:21] <jayz> no.. -i've just inbuilt graphics intel HD graphics 3000
[10:21] <Calinou> ._.
[10:22] <ActionParsnip> jayz: that's the video chip then
[10:23] <jayz> when i shutdown the system and use it normally, everything is fine.. this screen going blank problem occurs only when i hibernate and resume and also when i lock the screen purposely
[10:23] <ActionParsnip> jayz: can you give the output of: lspci | grep -i vga
[10:24] <jayz> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)
[10:24] <ActionParsnip> jayz: and the output of:  lsb_release -c
[10:24] <jayz> Codename:	natty
[10:25] <jamiewan> jayz: have you tried suspend instead of hibernate, that worked for me with another machine
[10:26] <jayz> jamiewan: suspend just puts the machine idle for a while.. it does not power it off right?
[10:26] <jamiewan> yep
[10:27] <tuxmax> hi all
[10:27] <jayz> jamie: i want to hibernate dude.. like powering off with all programs open and resuming them later when i power on again
[10:28] <wilder> hello, tuxmax
[10:28] <jayz> ok.. there's another problem i have... it's regarding bluetooth
[10:29] <jayz> hope actionparsnip is busy looking me a solution!
[10:29] <ActionParsnip> jayz: hibernate was disabled in Maverick for that model. I suggest you log a bug
[10:29] <tuxmax> This is the first time for me ,and I very happy to attend
[10:30] <ActionParsnip> jayz: http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201101-6952:201101-6953:201101-6975
[10:30] <bundai> is there anyone who can help me!
[10:30] <voxic> tuxmax: An extra welcome is in place then =)
[10:30] <ActionParsnip> jayz: this may help, i've not tried it but should be reversible http://thecodecentral.com/2011/01/18/fix-ubuntu-10-10-suspendhibernate-not-working-bug
[10:30] <wilder> Is there any good way to downgrade from 10.10 to 10.04?
[10:30] <ActionParsnip> bundai: you haven't given any detail, so presently no
[10:30] <damo22> wilder: why
[10:31] <wilder> I've seen some scripts that claim to do it but I'm not sure about running them
[10:31] <SwedeMike> wilder: downgrade isn't supported.
[10:31] <damo22> the idea is to move forwards
[10:31] <damo22> not backwards
[10:31] <jayz> actionparsnip: can u help me out with my bluetooth issues too..
[10:31] <jayz> ?
[10:31] <wilder> damo22, I had a few games running in 10.04 that aren't working in 10.10
[10:31] <jayz> i have ubuntu 11.04 not 10.10..
[10:31] <damo22> wilder: maybe u are lacking a couple of packages
[10:32] <manisabri> Hi , after yesteday updates on 11.04 64bit I'm only able to use low graphic x, any idea? I forced the version of xserver-common and xserver-core but the only improvement was better low graphic resolution ...
[10:32] <Lint> how to turn off Avahi stuff once and for ever?
[10:33] <wilder> damo22, probably. I've seen alot of forum posts about playonlinux not running as well in 10.10 as it did in 10.04
[10:33] <ActionParsnip> jayz: i'm not great with bluetooth, not something I use
[10:33] <tuxmax> Thank you very much voxic :-)
[10:33] <damo22> wilder: i do not play games
[10:33] <ActionParsnip> manisabri: what video chip do you use?
[10:33] <wilder> damo22, fair enough.
[10:34] <damo22> wilder: except mame
[10:34] <manisabri> Actionparsnip: ATI 4250 onboard
[10:34] <ActionParsnip> manisabri: remove the driver, then reboot, then reinstall it. May help
[10:34] <jayz> UBUNTU NATTY 11.04 doesn't detect on-board bluetooth device..
[10:34] <damo22> jayz: nonsense
[10:34] <jamiewan> jayz: mine works fine
[10:35] <manisabri> ActionParsnip: how should I do that? I'm using the AMD version not the cannonical one? the must be an uninstall true?
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> jayz: if you reboot then run:  dmesg | less    you can see the devices being detected and see if the device is detected
[10:35] <jayz> @jamiewan: dell inspiron n4410.. i guess it's version 3.0
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> manisabri: yes, its just a package
[10:36] <manisabri> It's funny that flash get lot less cpu (around 11%) compared to when the graphic drivers are installed (around 80% ) !!
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> manisabri: because your GPU is probably doing some work
[10:38] <manisabri> actionparsnip: how ? there is no graphic driver in low graphic mode is it? if the second monitor was working I could completely abandon installing the ATI graphic driver!
[10:38] <manisabri> everything is smoother without the dirver!!!
[10:39] <damo22> manisabri: you have old ati card?
[10:39] <ActionParsnip> manisabri: its not loaded, but the package is still installed
[10:39] <Lint> how to turn off Avahi stuff once and for ever?

[10:40] <Lint> nabukadnezar43, via css
[10:40] <nabukadnezar43> can you tell me the location of that css file?
[10:40] <damo22> Lint: i dont know if it will break you system, but you can do sudo service avahi stop and then remove the symlink to the init script that loads it
[10:40] <ActionParsnip> Lint: maybe: http://www.len.ro/2007/05/disabling-avahi-daemon/   its old but may still apply
[10:40] <Lint> nabukadnezar43, nope (
[10:41] <nabukadnezar43> Lint, why not?
[10:41] <nabukadnezar43> i didnt find any css files in my home folder

[10:42] <bundai> I is there anyone who can help me!
[10:42] <gry> with what
[10:42] <damo22> bundai: with what
[10:42] <Duelisti> When I go to Appearance Preferences -> Visual Effects and change from 'none' to 'normal' or 'extra', the system transitions to it and I select 'keep settings'. Nothing seems to change, though and once I close appearance preferences and start it up again, visual effects are back to 'none' again. What's the problem?
[10:42] <manisabri> actoinparsnip: uh I thought they were completely useless on low graphic mode ... but it doesn't explain the low performance in full graphic mode!
[10:43] <ActionParsnip> Duelisti: do you have 3D accelleration enabled
[10:43] <bundai> I  want to share a folder in ubuntu 11.04 in which windows user can copy, create & past file's  R folder's, but not to allow delete anything!! anyone have idea about this (PLEASE DONT  SUGGEST ME LINKS OR PDF'S READ OR TO LEARN tutorials) if anyone intrested  guide me till end !! Thank you in Advance
[10:43] <JoeR1> Quick question, I have System Monitor installed but I don't know the terminal name for the program - Does anyone in here know?
[10:44] <Duelisti> from where, ActionParsnip?
[10:44] <damo22> bundai: i can help you with that
[10:44] <gry> bundai: there is no such thing as 'create and paste' but not 'delete' - you can let them do what htey like and keep backups, or simply give read-only access
[10:44] <JoeR1> nevermind, I figured it out
[10:44] <ActionParsnip> bundai: afaik, if they have write access they will be abe to delete. Don't bother with the caps next time, we can read lower case just as easily
[10:44] <Tomasso> is there some way to install something to edit files from the web ?
[10:44] <bundai> Mr.gry It is already configured in centos
[10:45] <Tomasso> an online vim
[10:45] <gry> bundai: hehe link me to a guide about that if you have one (I'm just curious how it'd work)
[10:45] <ActionParsnip> Tomasso: you could wget the html then edit it
[10:45] <ActionParsnip> bundai: I'd ask in #samba
[10:45] <Tomasso> ActionParsnip, with files in the disk
[10:45] <gry> Tomasso: Firefox has an addon (addons.mozilla.org) to edit web pages live
[10:46] <bundai> already the the guy PythonPup took me half way and left
[10:46] <Tomasso> the only access i have to my box is ssh and its blocked from client side
[10:46] <zipskinny> hi to all! I have trouble with my driver videocard, i must edit xorg.conf but my system not well load. How start init in Grub?
[10:46] <Duelisti> ActionParsnip, how do I access 3D acceleration configurations?
[10:46] <ActionParsnip> Duelisti: its default enabled if it is available
[10:46] <ActionParsnip> Duelisti: what is the output of: lspci | grep -i vga
[10:47] <Duelisti> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[10:47] <ActionParsnip> zipskinny: hold shift at boot, select recovery mode then select root, you can manipulate the file there
[10:47] <yogi_> hi friends
[10:47] <Duelisti> It has worked before, atleast with Linux Mint and some other version of Ubuntu
[10:47] <ActionParsnip> Duelisti: you may need an xorg.conf file if your monitor is not reporting EDID as it should
[10:48] <yogi_> not able to run online videos
[10:48] <jamiewan> Duelisti: have you checked aditional hardware drivers and do you have ccsm installed?
[10:48] <zipskinny> ActionParsnip recoverymode not work well too :(
[10:48] <bundai> gry ?
[10:48] <MAREK_BENC_NetB> yogi_: you mean, like Youtube?
[10:48] <Duelisti> ccsm is installed, haven't checked hardware drivers, why does it matter?
[10:49] <yogi_> ya
[10:49] <gry> bundai: link me to centos docs about that if you have them, please
[10:49] <jamiewan> Duelisti: it might need a proprietry graphics driver
[10:49] <damo22> what is the best way to backup a partition, and save its contents to a second partition which is a tiny bit bigger, and then restore it back to the original place?
[10:49] <MAREK_BENC_NetB> yogi_: I made a simple script, that can stream youtube to mPlayer
[10:49] <damo22> dd?
[10:49] <MAREK_BENC_NetB> http://bashscripts.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=bash&action=display&thread=85
[10:50] <yogi_> what is it
[10:50] <MAREK_BENC_NetB> A script
[10:50] <Duelisti> jamiewan, I wen to Hardware Drivers -> 'no proprietary drivers are in use on this system'
[10:50] <ace__> hey. I've just formatted my hp probook 4520s (came with WIn7) and installed ubuntu 11.04. any tips on what I might need (especially on the driver front)?
[10:51] <yogi_> how to use it
[10:51] <yogi_> i am new to ubuntu
[10:51] <damo22> ace__: ubuntu doesnt need that many 3rd party drivers, it should just mostly work
[10:51] <jamiewan> Duelisti: how old is the machine?
[10:51] <MAREK_BENC_NetB> yogi_: What OS did you Use before Ubuntu? MacOS? Windoze?
[10:51] <yogi_> windows
[10:51] <yogi_> vista
[10:52] <bundai> I have smb.conf file 's
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> ace__: see what works and doesn't work and then report back
[10:52] <ace__> damo22: oh, ok. I', having problems enabling the wireless though... keeps saying it is disabled by a harware switch
[10:52] <MAREK_BENC_NetB> yogi_: Ok, what is your web browser you're trying to watch videos with?
[10:52] <ace__> ActionParsnip: wireless
[10:52] <yogi_> i tried both firefox
[10:52] <yogi_> and chrome
[10:52] <jamiewan> ace__: that will be a physical switch somewhere probably
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> ace__: use a wired connection, get full updates and reboot, you may find it is installed using the driver install app
[10:53] <Duelisti> jamiewan, Acer Aspire One AOA-150 iirc, probably released in 2008. That shouldn't be the problem, though, because visual effects have worked on this computer before, just not with Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook edit
[10:53] <newbie|4> ciao
[10:53] <MAREK_BENC_NetB> yogi_: And did you install Flash?
[10:53] <zipskinny> How start init 3 in Grub?
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> yogi_: quit hammer ing enter after every second word, it makes support near impossible
[10:53] <yogi_> ya i did
[10:53] <newbie|4> !list
[10:53] <bundai> gry !! if you understand this can you explaing me how to cofigure it   http://pastebin.com/Q18MUwdE
[10:53] <yogi_> when i run video it says
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> yogi_: what is your issue, please use a single line so it doesn't get muddld with everybody elses text
[10:54] <jamiewan> Duelisti: you tried enabling cube and other effects in compiz then?
[10:54] <yogi_> an error occurred, please try again
[10:54] <Morgz> zipskinny - not entirely sure but /etc/inittab should have a line about default runlevel,
[10:54] <MAREK_BENC_NetB> You have a old version of flash player, yogi_
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> yogi_: what app makes the error?
[10:54] <yogi_>  when i run video it says an error occurred, please try again
[10:54] <yogi_> its the flash player
[10:55] <damo22> you can use sticky bit to stop people deleting the directories but still allow people to rw files
[10:55] <bundai> is there anyone who is wellversed with samba
[10:55] <MAREK_BENC_NetB> yogi_ Please, update it, it's an old version.
[10:55] <gry> bundai: damo22 promised to help you - I personally don't tihnk a thing like that exists, but I'm rather new
[10:55] <MAREK_BENC_NetB> http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
[10:55] <ActionParsnip> yogi_: ok can you run:  lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | egrep "flash|gnash|swf"     use http://pastie.org   to hold the output please
[10:55] <gry> bundai: ask ##linux as well if you like
[10:55] <ActionParsnip> bundai: as well as I need, yes
[10:55] <gry> bundai: Or even better #samba
[10:55] <Duelisti> Yes, jamiewan
[10:55] <yogi_> hey i have updated it with ubuntu software centre but its still not working
[10:56] <damo22> gry: i think he can use sticky bit in file permissions to prevent people deleting the files
[10:56] <ActionParsnip> yogi_: fine, can you give the output of the command I gave
[10:56] <MAREK_BENC_NetB> Ubuntu doesn't have the nevest version!
[10:56] <bundai> gry ! everyone is suggesting pdf or  tutorials which i don't like
[10:56] <MAREK_BENC_NetB> You need to use : http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
[10:56] <AkivaII> just curious, does anyone else have problems with the unity pane not autohiding?
[10:56] <ActionParsnip> MAREK_BENC_NetB: the version is tried and tested, if there was an issue, it would have been updated
[10:56] <gry> damo22: Please, help him - I'm not sure how to do what he needs.
[10:56] <bundai> demo22 eveyone tell same !! but how use it
[10:56] <MAREK_BENC_NetB> yogi_: and at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/, pick the APT option
[10:56] <silence_> Whether there have Chinese people?
[10:56] <ActionParsnip> !cn | silence_
[10:56] <gry> !zh | silence_
[10:57] <ActionParsnip> bundai: I can give you my smb.conf file, it shows how I control access
[10:57] <Morgz> AkivaII - look for "launcher and menus" in the launcher?
[10:58] <ActionParsnip> bundai: http://paste.ubuntu.com/673714/   shares are at the bottom
[10:58] <AkivaII> Morgz:  unfortunately, that did not help
[10:58] <AkivaII> it seems stuck open
[10:58] <AkivaII> I am also having troubles with unity disabling some of the key bindings for my compiz window managements
[10:59] <bundai> ActionParsnip !!I think yesterday you gave it me !is it yours http://pastebin.com/aLMgFYac
[10:59] <AkivaII> for example, scale no longer activates when i put my mouse to the top right of the screen, and I can only fix this by relogging in, or going to the compiz config and turning the plugin on and off
[10:59] <manisabri> ActionParsnip: Reinstalling the graphic driver solved the problem ,thanks a lot : ) but the smoothness is gone : ( I wish there was solution for this
[11:00] <AkivaII> I am not exactly sure if I should file a bug,
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> bundai: yeah, I have access to both shares but Leanne can't touch my stuff :)
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> manisabri: np man
[11:00] <AkivaII> and I am not exactly sure if my bug report could actually be helpful
[11:00] <Morgz> AkivaII - probably a compiz issue I'm unfamiliar with, suggest maybe disabling plugins to narrow down cause of this behaviour?
[11:01] <damo22> bundai: you need to decide where you want to keep the files on the ubuntu box
[11:01] <Mez> Hi all, I've got the latest iPod classic.  However, banshee doesn't seem to be able to detect the music on it.  It pushes music to it (well, podcasts) but nothing else (so it tries to copy the library mulitple times.
[11:01] <Mez> Any suggestions (also, I'd like podcasts to actually show in podcasts!)
[11:01] <Daghdha> Hi, is there any plans of an upgrade of mono in ubuntu 10.x? As a package.
[11:01] <AkivaII> Morgz: certainly. I understand that this version is not release, but I would like to make sure unity keeps its sanity. I really do like the interface
[11:01] <bundai> actionparsnip !! unfortunately it doesnot work for me wy
[11:02] <damo22> bundai: you cant use his file directly you have to modify it
[11:02] <AkivaII> It does I have noticed, have the hardest time handling java based windows or kde based windows.
[11:02] <damo22> bundai: can you paste your smb.conf to a pastebin
[11:03] <bundai> damo22 ubuntu box what is it >?
[11:03] <damo22> bundai: your pc running ubuntu
[11:03] <damo22> sighs
[11:04]  * Lint loves awk
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> bundai: you will need to run:  sudo smbpasswd -a somename    to make samba authentication
[11:04] <bundai> demo22 http://pastebin.com/cbswCwFx
[11:05] <bundai> action parsnip check my smb.conf and let me know is there anything to do  sharefolder
[11:05] <damo22> bundai: does the folder /opt/data exist?
[11:06] <bundai> damo22 joke!! yes its there
[11:07] <bundai> that is mounted drive with xfs file system it suggested here only for sharing
[11:07] <damo22> bundai: what ubuntu user do you want the files to be created under when someone saves to the share?
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> bundai: may help http://beginlinux.com/blog/2010/01/create-a-public-share-on-samba/
[11:08] <bundai> damo22 anyone!! you suggest the use so that i can create
[11:09] <bundai> ActionParshnip Not again same link  !!
[11:09] <damo22> bundai: ls -lad /opt/data and show me the output
[11:09] <ActionParsnip> bundai: make a user and force the owner to be the user, you could even set the smbpasswd for the new user so you can control who accesses it
[11:09] <ActionParsnip> bundai: my bad, long week
[11:09] <ActionParsnip> bundai: i'd just keep hammering #samba
[11:10] <bundai> ActionParsnip !!then guide me I am new to that
[11:10] <damo22> bundai: go to system -> administration -> users and groups and create a new user just for the share
[11:10] <bundai> damo22 ! http://pastebin.com/F9nrL3gq
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> bundai: /join #samba    will get you to the channel
[11:12] <damo22> bundai: thats no good, you need to create user first and tell me the name and group
[11:12] <bundai> ActionParsnip !!thank you for your suggestion May I know do you have any idea about dlna server in ubuntu
[11:13] <bundai> damo22 !I have created milap group milap
[11:13] <damo22> ok
[11:14] <damo22> bundai: chown -R milap:milap /opt/data
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> bundai: ushare seems to be an option
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> !info ushare
[11:16] <Duelisti> I got visual effects working by installing fusion-icon, but now my windows don't have borders, includin te panel with close, maximize and minimize
[11:16] <bundai> damo22 yes i have done
[11:16] <damo22> bundai: smbpasswd -a milap
[11:16] <Mez> Hi all, I've got the latest iPod classic.  However, banshee doesn't seem to be able to detect the music on it.  It pushes music to it (well, podcasts) but nothing else (so it tries to copy the library mulitple times.  Any suggestions (also, I'd like podcasts to actually show in podcasts!)
[11:16] <damo22> and give it a password for accessing the share
[11:17] <bundai> ubottu I need free UPnp server along with webtv
[11:18] <damo22> bundai: if you want my help focus on the problem at hand
[11:19] <bundai> damo22 its doesnot ask passowrd and i am not able to copy or creat the folder
[11:19] <damo22> bundai: we havent finished!
[11:19] <MBR_Rewritor> I want to setup an FTP server on my Netbook. I allready installed vsftpd, and edited the config file, but where do i put files into it (Like the pub folder and so)
[11:20] <damo22> bundai: are you running a root console inside X?
[11:20] <bundai> damo22 yes i am login with root only
[11:21] <damo22> bundai: do you have a graphical login or just console?
[11:21] <bundai> dam022 after giving u/p it not allow to write or create
[11:21] <bundai> dam022 graphical login
[11:21] <damo22> bundai: we need to set up samba first
[11:21] <damo22> so can you edit the smb.conf file
[11:21] <bundai> damo22 have already set it up
[11:22] <damo22> bundai: its wrong
[11:22] <bundai> dam022 means what ?! can i have command so that samba is working r not
[11:22] <damo22> gedit /etc/smb.conf
[11:22] <Myrtti> bundai: if you can log in as root to the graphical environment, you are basically asking for trouble. we don't support enabling root accounts, even less enabling logging in to GUI as such
[11:22] <spidie> exit
[11:23] <jpw1391> Anyone know of a simple bash script that would sort files by extension so that I could have a parent directory that I would drop files into it and would send pdf's to a pdf folder, movies to a movie folder a so on?
[11:23] <damo22> bundai: gedit smb.conf
[11:24] <MBR_Rewritor> jpw1391: I can make one for you.
[11:24] <damo22> bundai: gedit /etc/smb.conf  sorry
[11:24] <bundai> Myrtti that's not problem for me i can use sudo in user accout but i want to finish my work
[11:24] <jpw1391> for free?
[11:24] <ActionParsnip> jpw1391: you could have a script in an infinite loop and run 'ls' on a folder, then run you could use awk and grep to just get the extension and perform logic on that, sure
[11:24] <rocket_> h
[11:25] <jpw1391> if you make me a template with a few extensions I should be able to finish it to my liking
[11:25] <bundai> dam022 ! this my smb.conf file http://pastebin.com/B2QSbaNz
[11:26] <ActionParsnip> jpw1391: if you run:  echo filename |  cut -d'.' -f2    it will give the file extension
[11:26] <glebihan> MBR_Rewritor, have a look at anonymous_enable and anon_root options (and maybe others) in https://security.appspot.com/vsftpd/vsftpd_conf.html
[11:26] <ActionParsnip> jpw1391: you can then put it in a variable like: FEXTENSION=`echo "$1" | cut -d'.' -f2`
[11:26] <damo22> bundai: at the bottom change the following: guest ok = no, force user = milap, create mask = 0644, directory mask = 1644
[11:27] <whoppergator> ActionParsnip: infinite loops are bad practice, and that cut will fail on filenames with more than one period, no?
[11:27] <jpw1391> so this infinite look would always be running in the background?
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> whoppergator: possibly, but it's a start, it can be refined
[11:28] <ActionParsnip> jpw1391: yes, much like a service. I'm sure you could make it more graceful
[11:28] <whoppergator> ActionParsnip: jpw1391: you should write a script that uses a grep match, then add it to cron with a reasonable update interval
[11:28] <jpw1391> Is there anyways to daemonize it so that I just does it upon a new file entering the parent folder
[11:28] <jpw1391> ?
[11:28] <theadmin> !cron | jpw1391
[11:29] <ActionParsnip> jpw1391: not sure there
[11:29] <whoppergator> jpw1391: yes, but it would need to be a nautilus extention though, like dropbox's
[11:29] <JoeR1> I wish to install a custom login theme but I am unsure how to, can anyone offer advice?
[11:29] <jpw1391> no I'm just looking for a simple bash script
[11:29] <damo22> bundai: sorry create mask = 0664, directory mask = 1664
[11:29] <theadmin> JoeR1: https://launchpad.net/gdm2setup
[11:29] <whoppergator> jpw1391: right, i'm saying you couldn't daemonize it with a bash script. your best bet is a cron job
[11:30] <bundai> damo22 you want me to restart pc or service smbd restart
[11:30] <damo22> bundai: service smbd restart
[11:30] <JoeR1> theadmin, Thank you I shall look immediately
[11:31] <jpw1391> alright but lsyncd would daemonize it right? if I were to go that route
[11:31] <jpw1391> ?
[11:31] <damo22> bundai: repost your smb.conf
[11:31] <bundai> damo22 i am not able to creat or copy or
[11:31] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: afaik, you can only change the wallpaper and login box colour
[11:31] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: lightdm is a little more customizable over GDM but I've not done it
[11:31] <mang0> any thunderbird users here?
[11:31] <mang0> oh wait
[11:31] <mang0> I need to be in #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:31] <theadmin> mang0: Not really, if it's a support question this is the place
[11:32] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, I have discovered that I have Gnome 2 and that, I believe, it supports custome themes beyond just background and icons
[11:32] <bundai> damo22 http://pastebin.com/w2qpnDG5 i think we set chmod for /opt/data
[11:32] <mang0> theadmin: it is a support question, but it's nothing to do with ubuntu....
[11:32] <theadmin> mang0: Oh, okay. Sure, then you probably better go to #ubuntu-offtopic or the Mozilla's place
[11:33] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: what release are you using?
[11:33] <ringberar> hey
[11:33] <mang0> theadmin: #thunderbird on irc.mozilla.org is dead quiet, no answers
[11:33] <theadmin> mang0: Heh... In #ubuntu-offtopic they most usually discuss nonsense
[11:33] <ringberar> could anyone help me troubleshoot why i cannot dual screen?
[11:33] <mang0> theadmin: very true ;)
[11:33] <ringberar> im also getting a weird clipping when i open up any ui
[11:34] <damo22> bundai: please delete "force user = nobody" and change the create mask = 0770 and directory mask = 1770 from your smb.conf and save, then service smbd restart
[11:34] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, 11.04, Xubuntu
[11:35] <whoppergator> jpw1391: i think so. then you are basically tacking your script on to an existing daemon. apparently there is a nautilus-sync package for that too. Oh yeah, and nautilus-actions now that i think about it, which would be another way to trigger it
[11:35] <jpw1391> I use openbox...
[11:36] <jpw1391> and pcmanfm
[11:36] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: then it will be a GDM you cannot theme
[11:36] <whoppergator> jpw1391: well then... sure lsyncd might do it
[11:36] <wouter_> hey :)
[11:37] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, We shall see, with the customization of linux as a base I am sure I can with enough hard work
[11:37] <drag0nz> hey guys, is there anyway to run ubuntu LiveCD but save/load the settings off a USB stick?
[11:37] <damo22> bundai: hows that going
[11:37] <Lint> wait does ubuntu by default have no firewall?
[11:38] <Genezer> Can anyone help me installing a wireless card?
[11:38] <bundai> damo22 no use this type of config is working in centos do you want samba folder that pc
[11:38] <damo22> bundai: i dont understand your question
[11:38] <theadmin> drag0nz: Sure, Unetbootin does that
[11:39] <bundai> I mean its not working i can access the folder but can
[11:39] <wouter_> im getting into linux, but still getting used to the filesystem, as in, where to put my stuff. Now I am following a guide to build some code and it requires me to make a few directories in my build environment. It shows command like mkdir -p ~/bin  . now my question is: Where could / should be my build environment or where would you put yours?
[11:39] <whoppergator> jpw1391: yeah lsyncd will definitely do it, and it ties into inotify, so it would be efficient. i didn't realize you were on openbox. well that's what i get for jumping in the middle of a conversation :P
[11:39] <bundai> sorry cant create file in that
[11:39] <drag0nz> theadmin, what is that?
[11:39] <drag0nz> theadmin, ah thats a tool that lets me install and run ubuntu from a USB stick?
[11:41] <auronandace> !usb | drag0nz
[11:41] <bundai> damo22 In meantime i want to inform you that already this kind of config is working in centos it is in live do you want any file form that pc did you understand ?
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: I'd just install lightdm and switch over personally. You can use this link to mess with GDM if you want: http://maketecheasier.com/change-login-and-boot-screen-in-ubuntu-lucid/2010/05/13
[11:41] <Lint> does ubuntu by default have no firewall?
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> Lint: it has a firewall, iptables
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> !firewall | Lint
[11:42] <MBR_Rewritor> Installing From USB stick is simple as Ass, just cat ubuntu.iso > /dev/sd*
[11:42] <Lint> but it's off by default?!
[11:42] <whoppergator> wouter_: that tidla, ~, is a quick way of referencing your home directory. you should keep all of your user data, documents, projects and such in the home folder. the organization of your home folder is entirely up to you!
[11:42] <drag0nz> auronandace, thanks, but thats not what i wanted, i have a data usb, i dont want to run ubuntu from it, what i want is(if possible) is to run the livecd and save any changes i do on the USB
[11:42] <drag0nz> auronandace, so when i load the LiveCD again, i can load my changes from the usb?
[11:42] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, just out of curiosity, how useless would my GUI be if I stripped out python?
[11:42] <Genezer> Can someone help me install the Edimax EW-7711ln wireless PCI on the 11.04 ubuntu distro?
[11:43] <jpw1391> whoppergator no worries that's the first i've even said of it
[11:43] <wouter_> alright so that command is just a suggestion. I may as well make that ~/myproject/bin then, or would you advise me to keep it in home/bin ?
[11:43] <auronandace> drag0nz: wouldn't it be easier to just have a persistant usb install
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: most things would be removed dude, a lot relies on python
[11:43] <whoppergator> Lint: yup it's off by default. since there are no open ports on a clean linux install, why would a firewall be necessary?
[11:43] <simion314> i never installed ubuntu on a Mac, is it so frioendly to Mac also? i mean i can do install and then dual boot? can it automaticaly resize the Mac partitions?
[11:43] <drag0nz> auronandace, you mean have it installed and run from USB?
[11:44] <Lint> whoppergator, theres 6 opened ports, by default
[11:44] <auronandace> drag0nz: yes, a persistant usb install would save your settings too
[11:44] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, yes . . .and yet I would be able to rebuilt from a command line and do it the way I want
[11:44] <mang0> I need an email client that I can write a message in raw html. any ideas?
[11:44] <drag0nz> auronandace, is that included in the guide you showed me?
[11:44] <ActionParsnip> JoeR1: why not just install ubuntu minimal and build up
[11:44] <auronandace> drag0nz: yes
[11:44] <syrinx_priest> Has anyone had luck using WakeOnLan in 11.04 to wake from Suspend?  If the computer has been suspended for more than 10 seconds, WOL won't work.
[11:44] <whoppergator> Lint: are there vulnerable services listening on those ports? i would also point out that you probably mean that there are 6 opened ports on ubuntu desktop. the server version and other distros have less or none
[11:45] <damo22> bundai: try this: add "valid user = milap" at the bottom of smb.conf and delete "public = yes" then do service smbd restart
[11:45] <drag0nz> auronandace, one last question, how much disk space does ubuntu 11.04 need?
[11:45] <drag0nz> is a 4gb stick good enough?
[11:45] <mang0> drag0nz: yeah
[11:46] <auronandace> drag0nz: for a persistant install i'm not sure
[11:46] <JoeR1> ActionParsnip, A worthy suggestion however it may offer insight to do it in my circuitous way . . . I shall have to reflect on it before I make a decision
[11:46] <Synapse-119> Hello everyone. I need your advice. How can I get 'gmplayer' binary? It is not installed with 'mplayer-gui' package
[11:47] <whoppergator> Lint: if you have any questions about ufw, just let me know :)
[11:48] <Lint> I have a question how to use gufw, because it looks totally broken
[11:48] <whoppergator> Lint: ask away... what would you like to do?
[11:48] <ActionParsnip> Synapse-119: install gnome-mplayer   you'll be fine
[11:49] <Lint> i would like to open port, but it keeps saying about 'execution error' or something like this
[11:49] <Synapse-119> ActionParsnip: okay, but 1) I use KDE 2) where's the binary gone?
[11:50] <Lint> oh nevermind
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> Synapse-119: if you use KDE then instal smplayer   its a Qt frontend to mplayer
[11:50] <Lint> it resolved itself
[11:50] <Lint> it just took it 4 minutes to switch on
[11:51] <skarufue> do i ask network related stuff here or is there a specific room fpr that?
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> skarufue: ##networking
[11:52] <whoppergator> Lint: i usually prefer talking to ufw directly in the terminal just so i can see what's going on, like loading etc. it's also much easier to use imho
[11:52] <syrinx_priest> regarding WOL, anyone able to tell me much about pmutils?  WOL from suspend works for the first 10 seconds after suspending.  There must be a config file that I can tinker with to address this.
[11:52] <syrinx_priest> I'm hoping anyway :)
[11:53] <spexi> Hey! I paired succesfully my samsung galaxy s II via bluetooth with ubuntu 11.04, but is there way to browse the phone? Like the phone would appear as one of the devices and then I could copy by dragging & dropping?
[11:53] <spexi> I only found a way with "Send to.." and then I could send files via bluetooth, but multiple files are always zipped
[11:54] <spexi> So it would be nicer to be able to browse the phone
[11:56] <farciarz84> hi is it possible to run adnroid apps on ubuntu?

[12:03] <ActionParsnip> farciarz84: banshee maybe
[12:03] <syrinx_priest> farciarz84: Rhythmbox has a plugin called Coherence that lets you use DLNA, but I haven't tried it.

[12:03] <farciarz84> ActionParsnip: banshee cannot

[12:23] <kopp> now anybody help me?
[12:24] <Lint> why ubuntu has tb3 instead of tb6?
[12:24] <kopp> what is tb?
[12:24] <Lint> mo$illa thunderbird
[12:25] <kopp> because 6 the newest

[12:26] <kopp> anybodí can help me abaout wine?
[12:26] <Lint> ActionParsnip, is ppa secure?
[12:26] <gry> kopp: With what?
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> Lint: keep to abbreviating only standard things like TCP etc. writing in acronyms causes a lot of confusion which is easily avoided
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> Lint: sure
[12:27] <Lint> and its address?
[12:27] <kopp> gry, need help about wine
[12:27] <ActionParsnip> kopp: ease up on the enter key, hitting enter after every other word makes questions a LOT harder to follow. You can write very long lines which go on and on as I am showing you here on purpose by waffling
[12:27] <ActionParsnip> kopp: did you check the appdb for compatibility at all?
[12:28] <kopp> ActionParsnip, yes compatible
[12:28] <Lint> what do you mean by 'see'? which folders? how did you test it?
[12:28] <Usr_dir> kopp: mayby its becuse it has links pointing the wong way.
[12:28] <ActionParsnip> kopp: is there a how to on the same page?
[12:29] <Usr_dir> kopp: if you installed it in windows and run the binary in linux, it will proberbly look for the requerd files in wines virutal C: partition. Thus it cant find them.
[12:30] <CoJaBo> How do I install Sun Java? The normal sun-java6-jre isn't there, is it renamed or is there some other hoops to jump thru?
[12:30] <theadmin> Usr_dir: Not really true, since on Windows, $Env:PATH includes ".", i.e. the current directory. So it'll look in the usual places, yes, ~/.wine/drive_c and in the directory the binary's in
[12:30] <theadmin> CoJaBo: It's in the partner repo as of now

[12:33] <kopp> no, i use cd version, cracked

[12:37] <damo22> what is the best way to backup a partition, (save its contents to a second partition which is a tiny bit bigger) and then restore it back to the original partition later?
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> damo22: there is no best anything
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> damo22: i suggest partimage
[12:38] <CoJaBo> damo22: Personally, I just dd it. Direct copy is most foolproof.
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> !backup | damo22
[12:39] <bundai> gry I have done it with the help of dam022 you want smb.conf file ?
[12:40] <gry> bundai: sure!
[12:41] <cer> hello
[12:41] <bundai> gry yes!!
[12:42] <bundai> gry you can create copy but u can't delete file or folder
[12:42] <gry> yea just pastebin and give me the url
[12:42] <damo22> CoJaBo: i agree about dd, but how do you make sure you dont overwrite the second partition when you restore the bigger one back to the original spot?
[12:43] <knoppix> moin
[12:43] <bundai> gry before that you need to help me
[12:43] <frostschutz> damo22: you can't write beyond partition boundaries when working with the partitions directly, so dd will just stop when it reaches the end
[12:43] <bundai> gry do  you know how to live rsyn between two pc
[12:44] <frostschutz> damo22: otherwise you could work with the seek / skip / count options of dd
[12:44] <bundai> gry http://pastebin.com/EHD9mxc4
[12:44] <damo22> frostshutz: yes, but imagine this scenario: 50gb back up to -> 51gb partition, then restore 51gb back to 50gb spot
[12:45] <gry> !rsync | bundai
[12:45] <gry> ^ If that guide is helpless then just ask in here
[12:45] <cer> is this where the noobs come for help???
[12:45] <bundai> gry I need live rsync not schudule
[12:46] <frostschutz> damo22: dd will write 50 GB to the 51 GB partition, then it will read 50GB from the 51GB partition and write it to the 50GB partition. It would read and write more but it will stop when it hits the end of the 50GB partition
[12:46] <bundai> ubottu i have been to that
[12:47] <damo22> frostschutz: ok great!
[12:47] <gry> bundai: ah ok - just wait for someone with experience please
[12:47] <damo22> frostschutz: dd is cleverer than i thought

[12:52] <damo22> bundai: tell me the path of the remote location you are trying to copy FROM and the target folder on the local machine you are copying TO
[12:53] <dschuett> i have set a static ip in /etc/network/interfaces (i have double checked the file to make sure everything is typed correctly) When i restart networking ifconfig shows that i have the correct static ip that i just set, but after a couple minutes it gives me an ip address from dhcp. any ideas?
[12:53] <bundai> dam022 make sure it should live not single file shouldn't miss \\192.1685.5.5\data this source
[12:53] <bundai> dam022 target you as you know \\192.168.5.11
[12:54] <bundai> dam022 \\192.168.5.5\data source
[12:54] <damo22> bundai: we are not using samba to transfer the files, forget the \\
[12:54] <bundai> damo22 ok
[12:54] <damo22> bundai: you mean /opt/data
 Hi, Trond--. I'm a spam bot and this is a piece of spam: please visit http://www.drobos13.com/ for the best thing since sliced bread. I won't bother you again.
[12:55] <bundai> dam022 yes
[12:55] <damo22> bundai: is it /opt/data on both machines?
[12:56] <antonio_> salve a tutti. come si fa a ripristinare la barra chiudi,ripristina,iconizza. infatti mi è scomparsa la barra e per chiuder devo digitare alt+F4
[12:56] <Pici> Trond--: Did you just get that?
[12:56] <Pici> !it | antonio_
[12:56] <bundai> dam022 both pc are in different floor one source is running on centos and target is on ubuntu
[12:56] <bundai> dam022 yes both share folder is /opt/data
[12:57] <damo22> bundai: run this on the machine with empty folder:
[12:57] <Trond--> Pici, the spam? yes
[12:59] <bundai> dam022 let me tell u source is having 80gb data in /opt/data once i start rsysn it will take long time and when i tryed it last time  it got struck at some Junk files temp files blabala files and system got hang I think you understood
[13:00] <damo22> what size is the destination /opt/data?
[13:00] <bozo123> hi all...quick one: how can i increase the max size username string limit? I believe this is 32 chars
[13:00] <bazhang> marvind, hi
[13:01] <damo22> think of a shorter username
[13:01] <damo22> :P
[13:01] <bozo123> if thats no an option?
[13:01] <bundai> dam022 both pc's have 500gb sata hdd source data size will be more than 80gb initially
[13:02] <damo22> bundai: how much space is available in the /opt/data directory on the target machine?
[13:02] <damo22> bundai: df -h
[13:02] <bundai> dam022 its new morethan 450 gb i think
[13:03] <damo22> bundai: ok try this command:  sudo rsync -avr root@192.168.5.5:/opt/data /opt
[13:04] <damo22> bundai:  ?
[13:05] <bundai> dam022 is it live rsync lastime when i try to do its slow down source pc
[13:05] <antonio_> salve a tutti. come si fa a ripristinare la barra chiudi,ripristina,iconizza. infatti mi è scomparsa la barra e per chiuder devo digitare alt+F4
[13:05] <bundai> dam022 more ever it will long time to finish what do you suggest shall i try after client logout
[13:06] <damo22> it copies as fast as possible, but it will use the hard disk resources of course and network resources
[13:07] <damo22> you can run it in a VT console, press ctrl-alt-F1 then Ctrl-alt-f7 or f8 to return to gui
[13:07] <Trond--> I have a router and a repeater which I can download torrent in Win7 with uTorrent, but qBittorrent stopped working in Ubuntu. What can I do?
[13:09] <bundai> damo22 ok I will try it and get back Once again thank you for you help bye!
[13:10] <damo22> when i dd the whole partition should i make a large blocksize so it doesnt seek so hard?

[13:16] <jef91> Pici Any idea if those packages exist by some other name on Ubuntu 10.04?
[13:17] <Pici> jef91: let me look
[13:17] <jef91> been searching around and I can't find anything
[13:17] <Pici> jef91: cdbs should definitely be there, but it looks like dh-autoreconf was published in backports.
[13:19] <jef91> thanks pici - adding that to my sources now
[13:20] <Pici> jef91: np
[13:20] <jef91> hrm

[13:20] <b0ot> Is there a way to take a setup I have for ubuntu and save it in a way that I could load it as a virtual machine
[13:26] <santan> How to access Windows folders from nautilus ?
[13:27] <kyle_> I have ubuntu 10.4 LTS, i want to update the kernal to 3.xxx  is this easy? (test lab and am a noob)
[13:27] <KM0201> santan: you don't just see the folder? and an click on it.
[13:27] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: no,
[13:28] <kyle_> ikonia-remote: Please can I ask why..
[13:28] <santan> KM0201, I can access the folders and drives using smbclient from the terminal. But in nautilus, it keeps asking for username, group and password ?
[13:28] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: sure, it's not a supported option, ubuntu is build around specific product versions that are known to work/compatible, as soon as you move away from that your stability is at risk
[13:28] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: why do you want to go to the 3.X kernel ?
[13:29] <ouyes> is there any software like office vision under ubuntu?
[13:29] <AdvoWork> is there a way I can see only files/folders that have been modified since a certain date?
[13:29] <alkafoo> ouyes: what's office vision?
[13:29] <alkafoo> AdvoWork: man find
[13:30] <ikonia-remote> AdvoWork: look at the properties of the file the "modify" time stamp
[13:30] <ouyes> visio
[13:30] <ouyes> alkafoo, office visio
[13:30] <Pici> ouyes: dia might fit your need.
[13:30] <kyle_> ikonia-remote: the new dell optiplex 790's don't support some software we use on linux called FOG.  possible HDD controller issue. New kernal is something to try, say devlopment.
[13:30] <alkafoo> ouyes: oh, koffice has something
[13:30] <Helsinkiii> hi
[13:30] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: who is "development" who says this ?
[13:31] <alkafoo> ouyes: kivio, now calligra something
[13:31] <alkafoo> Helsinkiii: hi
[13:31] <Helsinkiii> I installed OpenOffice on 11.04 and a) it doesn't show up in Applications
[13:31] <alkafoo> ouyes: but dia might do you fine, depends on what exactly you're after
[13:31] <Helsinkiii> and b) When I run soffice it open LibreOffice
[13:31] <ouyes> alkafoo, Pici I think dia will do
[13:31] <kyle_> ikonia-remote: FOG development staff
[13:31] <bbba> Any ubuntu members in yarmouth MA
[13:31] <alkafoo> Helsinkiii: libreoffice is the preferred fork of OpenOffice
[13:31] <bbba> I want some hot man sex
[13:31] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: who is FOG development staff ?
[13:31] <alkafoo> bbba: #mansecks
[13:32] <Helsinkiii> alkafoo, I know, but I updated LibreOffice and now it doesn't open .pptx or .ppsx at all
[13:32] <Helsinkiii> alkafoo,i figured OpenOffice might
[13:32] <alkafoo> Helsinkiii: the code isn't all that different yet, if libreoffice is failing, it's nothing to do with being libreoffice instead of openoffice, your system is just not sane ATM

[13:34] <Helsinkiii> alkafoo,any suggestions? this is for something due like ..now
[13:34] <alkafoo> santan: is it keeping you from accomplishing something?
[13:34] <Helsinkiii> alkafoo,i needed to edit something and send it in
[13:34] <Helsinkiii> alkafoo,well it's due in like an hour but i really need to fix this
[13:34] <santan> alkafoo, I cannot access my windows drives on another computer.
[13:34] <alkafoo> I'm not sure what that purge & reinstall command would be
[13:34] <alkafoo> Helsinkiii: ask the channel, not me directly
[13:34] <afeijo> hi guys, I have a new pc where Unity + Compiz wont load, not even the Default interface + Compiz wont load, only default without effects :( what can I do?
[13:35] <alkafoo> santan: ah, and what 'network name' are you using?
[13:35] <alkafoo> afeijo: try another graphics driver
[13:35] <alkafoo> afeijo: or possibly realize your graphics device is not up to it
[13:35] <santan> The name of the computer/ hostname i this case, USER-PC
[13:35] <alkafoo> santan: you used to be able to access them?
[13:36] <Helsinkiii> CHANNEL: Why does the latest build of LibreOffice NOT open .pptx and .ppsx ???
[13:36] <afeijo> alkafoo, yes it is, I already used it, but after reboot... nvidia here
[13:36] <AdvoWork> where would i find the dns txt records on an ubuntu server?
[13:36] <alkafoo> Helsinkiii: it's either malfunctioning or your files are no good
[13:36] <santan> alkafoo, No, I tried to access them using nautilus but it keeps asking for username, domain and password. Any ideas ?
[13:36] <ouyes> dia is powerful
[13:36] <Helsinkiii> I've tried opening old files, and it doesn't open
[13:37] <afeijo> alkafoo, I believe it is a conflict with Xinerama
[13:37] <afeijo> without xinerama, I cannot use my right screen
[13:37] <afeijo> only let
[13:37] <afeijo> left
[13:37] <alkafoo> afeijo: believing is for people who aren't sure
[13:37] <alkafoo> Helsinkiii: ok, then ask how to purge and reinstall libreoffice
[13:37] <valthyx> is pastebin in ubuntu's package? i tried "apt-cache search pastebin" but could not find
[13:37] <alkafoo> pastebinit, maybe?
[13:37] <bazhang> valthyx, pastebinit
[13:38] <valthyx> ok, thanks
[13:38] <alkafoo> afeijo: okay well username and password would of course be your Windows username and password
[13:38] <afeijo> what???
[13:39] <alkafoo> afeijo: aren't the files on a Windows computer?
[13:39] <afeijo> alkafoo, my problem is with compiz and xinerama, not files :)
[13:39] <alkafoo> oops, meant for santan
[13:39] <afeijo> ok
[13:41] <Galvatron> Hi. In Ubuntu 11.04 (Classic GNOME, Compiz 0.8.6 from PPA) I have a problem with panel applets loading but frequently not appearing on the top panel (I must restart them to make them show up). If it matters, I'm using a custom kernel and 7300GT with the latest proprietary drivers.
[13:41] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: ask the PPA maintainer for help
[13:41] <santan> alkafoo, They are on a Windows 7 PC. How do I access it from my box ?
[13:41] <Galvatron> First I must determine where lies the problem
[13:41] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: and custom kernel + unsupported drivers + unsupported PPA = nightmare to support
[13:42] <alkafoo> I doubt a window manager malfunctioning would have anything to do with icons from applets for a panel not showing up
[13:42] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: start reverting things, eg: stock kernel, stock drivers + PPA
[13:42] <alkafoo> santan: you need to set them up as shared on the Windows box
[13:44] <santan> alkafoo, They are shared, require no password and can be accessed from other Windows PC's on the network. How do I access them from Linux ?
[13:46] <alkafoo> santan: http://www.google.com/search?q=windows%20share%20site%3Ahelp.ubuntu.com
[13:48] <NoobHaxor> hello everyone
[13:48] <gry> hi
[13:49] <Galvatron> ikonia-remote: Thanks. First I will contact the kernel author, to outrule this component. Compiz 0.8.6 is pretty unlikely, since I never  had this issue in Ubu 10.10.
[13:49] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: just revert it, contacting him won't help
[13:50] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: revert as much as possible, then add one component at a time, once you find what breaks it, revert everything except that component, then start adding things until you find what combination breaks it

[13:53] <Galvatron> ikonia-remote: I also noticed it is somehow related to the current GNOME theme. Previously I had a Mac-like one and I almost got rid of this, but it's intensyfied when I reverted to Ambiance.
[13:53] <Galvatron> ikonia-remote: I tried resetting GNOME to defaults, as well as adding the applets to startup and to a list of required components in Gconf Editor.
[13:54] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: you didn't use macbuntu did you ?
[13:54] <selite> Hey guys! How do I get Kate back into the default settings?
[13:54] <Galvatron> ikonia-remote: Thats exactly what I used
[13:55] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: game over then
[13:55] <Galvatron> ikonia-remote: But as far as I remember, I installed the stuff manually, not with the provided script.
[13:55] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: that package does damage and does not remove cleanly
[13:56] <santan> alkafoo, Thanks
[13:56] <thrillERboy> Hi, What the easiest way to get the default .bashrc that comes with Ubuntu?
[13:57] <somsip> thrillERboy: copy from /etc/skel
[13:57] <Hyperbyte> thrillERboy:  cp /etc/skel/.bashrc ~
[13:58] <Galvatron> ikonia-remote: Will a clean install of Ubuntu enough to get rid of any remaining  stuff?
[13:58] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: totally
[13:59] <parapan> hi fellows > I have following problem - open terminal give users command and it gives me the logged users ......but the result is : user1 user1 ...so both time the same user ......if, on the same computer I use an nx remote connection, and I'l loging with the same user, the output of users is : use1 user1 user1
[14:00] <kyle_> ikonia-remote: you ther
[14:00] <kyle_> ikonia-remote: you there?
[14:00] <ikonia-remote> yes
[14:00] <alkafoo> Galvatron: remaining stuff?
[14:00] <kyle_> ikonia-remote: you asked who said I need 3.xxx I saif the people who make fog said it would be a good start.
[14:00] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: who is the people who make fog
[14:00] <Galvatron> ikonia-remote: Thanks
[14:00] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: what is fog ?
[14:01] <ace__> hello. my caps lock led does not light when I press it. does anyone know a fix?
[14:01] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: sorry it's not more detail but I don't have an ubuntu machine here to test it, but that theme causes problems
[14:01] <kyle_> ikonia-remote: fog is a open project. http://www.fogproject.org/
[14:01] <alkafoo> ace__: apple keyboard?
[14:02] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: does your laptop actually boot with a default ubuntu install ?
[14:03] <ace__> alkafoo: no HP
[14:03] <kyle_> ikonia-remote: it's a PXE kernal i need to update
[14:03] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: does it work at all with the pxe kernel ?
[14:03] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: as in the current one
[14:03] <alkafoo> ace__: strange, I'd consider LEDs not working a blessing
[14:03] <kyle_> ikonia-remote: not the dell optiplex 790's 780's and other PC's are fine
[14:03] <geekbri> If i installed apache2 through apt repos but compile php by hand, does anybody know how i would enable mod_php in apache2?
[14:04] <ace__> alkafoo: ha!
[14:04] <Galvatron> ikonia-remote: But the problem is that I havent installed it fully, with the script - just the theme and icons.
[14:04] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: randomly changing hte kernel doesn't seem a good option to me, researching what component is not working and then finding out what kernel introduces support for that problem
[14:04] <kyle_> ikonia-remote: I don't nned help with the issue. I just wanted help with ubuntu 10.4 update kernal to 3.xx
[14:04] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: the theme is the same, it's nt a good setup
[14:04] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: you shouldn't update it to 3.0 kernel
[14:05] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: hence why I'm explaining what you need to do
[14:05] <kyle_> ikonia-remote: OK, even in testlab..
[14:05] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: yes, even in the test lab
[14:05] <ikonia-remote> kyle_: hence why I'm explaining what you need to do
[14:05] <kyle_> ikonia-remote: OK, I do thank you..
[14:06] <Galvatron> ikonia-remote: Also, it's installed in my /home, so formatting certinly will not solve anything
[14:06] <Galvatron> ikonia-remote: But i'll try removing it from theme/icon directories and see what happnes.
[14:06] <AdvoWork> where would i find the dns txt records on an ubuntu server?
[14:06] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: I think it does more than put things in /home, certainly the package, however try removing it's directory from your home dir's themes directory
[14:07] <ikonia-remote>  Galvatron: I think it does more than put things in /home, certainly the package, however try removing it's directory from your home dir's themes directory
[14:07] <ikonia-remote> sorry, my client went funny then
[14:07] <Galvatron> ikonia-remote: Macbuntu is not a *deb package, but only a bunch of files with a shell script to install them.
[14:08] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[14:08] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: there is a deb packge for it that installs it too
[14:08] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: and the scripts are not good
[14:08] <tqrst> is it just me or does the forum require logging in just to view topics now? e.g. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=718910
[14:08] <Galvatron> ikonia-remote: I have the non-deb version
[14:08] <alkafoo> tqrst: not just you
[14:08] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: I don't know the details of that, but if it was installed by a script too, I wouldn't trust it
[14:08] <alkafoo> tqrst: luckily google still gets in, hit the cache link
[14:08] <tqrst> alkafoo: yeah it's what I've been doing
[14:09] <alkafoo> tqrst: retroactive copy cat
[14:09] <tqrst> alkafoo: I was just wondering if it was on purpose
[14:09] <alkafoo> tqrst: something that silly must be on purpose
[14:09] <alkafoo> Ubuntu: Linux for humans (on a mandatory email spam list)
[14:09] <tqrst> alkafoo: I was going to say "something that stupid couldn't possibly be on purpose"
[14:09] <ikonia-remote> alkafoo: what ?
[14:10] <alkafoo> ikonia-remote: if the clog fits
[14:10] <tqrst> retroactive anticopycat?
[14:10] <tqrst> reminds me of expertsexchange
[14:10] <valthyx> how to disable the default firewall of ubuntu, or open a port?
[14:10] <alkafoo> tqrst: heh
[14:10] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: the detault is all ports are open
[14:11] <tqrst> alkafoo: apparently, it's only some of the older threads
[14:11] <valthyx> ikonia-remote, i could connect locally to my sshd, but could not with other computer from the same network
[14:11] <alkafoo> tqrst: inconsistent silliness is worse than consistent
[14:12] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: what is the error you get when you try to connect ?
[14:13] <valthyx> ikonia-remote, connection time out
[14:13] <valthyx> when i connect locally, i could ssh through without a problem
[14:13] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: what IP address are you trying to hit
[14:13] <thrillERboy> sorry somsip Hyperbyte that .bashrc file same as the one in my user directory, I think it is because I did . ~/.bashrc How Do I get the original file that comes as part of Ubuntu Default Install? I messed up something in my .bashrc
[14:13] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: is this a home network ?
[14:13] <valthyx> 192.168.0.102
[14:13] <valthyx> yes
[14:13] <Galvatron> ikonia-remote: I've totally forgotten, I had installed this stuff in /usr/share as well, to us it as a login screen theme. Now I purged it both from there and from /home.
[14:13] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: is that routing through your broadband router
[14:14] <valthyx> http://pastebin.com/Ar7P8g6J
[14:14] <ikonia-remote> Galvatron: yes, it does a lot more than it should
[14:14] <valthyx> a normal router.
[14:14] <valthyx> i tried it on windows, the router works fine
[14:14] <valthyx> i mean runnign sshd on windows
[14:15] <thrillERboy> Sorry somsip Hyperbyte , It worked great. my bad. Thanks a ton :)
[14:15] <tqrst> alkafoo: oh well. It's probably run by people who don't frequent the irc channel, and I don't care enough to submit a bug report.
[14:16] <Galvatron> ikonia-remote: Thank you very much. No I must configure the login screen once more and see if the loading problems remain.
[14:16] <alkafoo> obviously
[14:16] <alkafoo> people who use forums don't know what IRC is =P
[14:17] <photon> hi. I'm on 10.04 LTS, I manually updated my kernel to 2.6.38-something. Synaptic shows that Canonical provides only updates until October 2011 for that kernel. Is this a bug?
[14:17] <ikonia-remote> photon: manually updated your kernel ?
[14:18] <Galvatron> photon: You installed a non-logg term support kernel
[14:18] <Galvatron> *long
[14:18] <photon> ikonia-remote: sudo apt-get install linux-image-...
[14:18] <photon> Galvatron: it was the only .38 kernel available.
[14:18] <valthyx> ikonia-remote, any idea?
[14:18] <ikonia-remote> photon: that doesn't look like a 10.04 kernel
[14:18] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: I missed part of the conversation can you hit it from the Windows machine and ssh in ok ?
[14:18] <photon> ikonia-remote: it is not. it's a 11.04 kernel, but support for 11.04 should not run out in October, should it?
[14:19] <ikonia-remote> photon: game over with support then
[14:19] <ikonia-remote> photon: mixing packages from different repos will break your supportability
[14:19] <valthyx> ikonia-remote, my windows does not allow me to bind to port 443. some system service is running there, i could not terminate.
[14:19] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: ssh does not run on 443
[14:19] <valthyx> and i have to use port 443
[14:19] <Galvatron> photon: The idea behind LTS is also that a kernel will be updated for a longer period of time.
[14:19] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: web servers SSL run on 443
[14:20] <valthyx> yes, but i have to use 443 because i am going to ssh tunneling from outside
[14:20] <valthyx> port 22 is blocked
[14:20] <photon> any way to get a newer kernel then without upgrading to 10.10 or 11.*? I really like the rest of the software to have LTS.
[14:20] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: you said it wa son the same network
[14:20] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: tunneling from the outside is not the same network
[14:20] <valthyx> yes, i have to try first, before bringing it our
[14:20] <valthyx> yes, i have to try first, before bringing it out
[14:20] <ikonia-remote> photon: why do you want a newer kernel
[14:21] <valthyx> if locally is not working, then outside would not be working too
[14:21] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: test this when you get home and you can use the local network without tunneling
[14:21] <valthyx> ok, i am now.
[14:21] <photon> ikonia-remote: that would take too long to explain. but I have my reasons and I have already checked alternatives.
[14:21] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: you just said you where not and you where tunneling
[14:21] <robbietjuh> ikonia-remote: Not always, they also can run on other ports.. The standard is 443, but there are some apps that don't run there..
[14:21] <ikonia-remote> photon: in that case "no"
[14:22] <ikonia-remote> robbietjuh: no - it has to be 443 to comply with browsers
[14:22] <valthyx> ikonia-remote, you misunderstood me. i will ssh tunelling from outside, i am currently at home, testing
[14:22] <sipior> photon: you can always roll your own. it's not terribly hard if you apply some care.
[14:22] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: ok - forget tunneling
[14:22] <valthyx> once it is done, i would use it from outside
[14:22] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: is your windows machine on the same network as your ubuntu machine, yes/no
[14:22] <valthyx> yes
[14:22] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: from your windows machine can you ssh to your ubuntu machine on the local network - no tunneling yes/no
[14:22] <valthyx> but i could not bind to port 443, some windows service is running, and it doesnt allow me to stop the process,
[14:23] <valthyx> ikonia-remote, no
[14:23] <ikonia-remote> forget 443 and binding
[14:23] <valthyx> not even ssh
[14:23] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: what port is ssh running on the ubuntu machine ?
[14:23] <valthyx> 443
[14:23] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: change it to 22 (default) and test it from your local windows machine
[14:23]  * mavenjinx Haveing an out of body exp atm : Gone away for now
[14:23] <valthyx> ikonia-remote, ok, will update you
[14:25] <valthyx> ikonia-remote, i connected from putty(windows). error: connection refused
[14:25] <ikonia-remote> valthyx: connection refused, look in /var/log/secure
[14:28] <valthyx> ikonia-remote, terminated with status 255
[14:28] <Arabus> Hi @ll, someone willing to help me with a GConf error I receive in lucid when opening "gedit" from the cli? See https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gconf/+question/169062 for the error messages.
[14:28] <valthyx> that was the last message
[14:28] <valthyx> by the way, it is in syslog, secure doesnt exist
[14:30] <monty156> hi all
[14:33] <monty156> my boot up and shut down screens are just loads of text. anyone know how to get rid of the text and show the ubuntu logo or whatever?
[14:35] <monty156> anyone?
[14:35] <Sjimmie> aa
[14:35] <alkafoo> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplash
[14:36] <Pici> monty156: What release of Ubuntu are you using?
[14:36] <monty156> 11.04
[14:37] <monty156> checked that usplash page but its asif the text is over the splash screen if you know what i mean
[14:37] <Pici> monty156: Are they any choices if you run: sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth
[14:37] <Pici> monty156: usplash is not applicable in 11.04
[14:37] <Pici> monty156: I don't know what you mean by that.
[14:38] <h00k> monty156: 11.04 uses plymouth, and not usplash
[14:39] <monty156> Pici: yeah there is the one selected is /lib/plymouth/themes/glow/glow.plymouth
[14:43] <monty156> i'm not wanting to change the plymouth theme its just disabling the text overlay. it also appears REALLY low res
[14:44] <om26er> monty156, using nvidia driver?
[14:44] <cmr> if box A can connect to box B, but B cannot connect directly to box A, is there a way of sshing from B to A by taking advantage of that A can connect to B?
[14:44] <compdoc> connect in what way
[14:44] <monty156> om26er: yeah
[14:44] <doomrobo> where are the .desktop files found that appear in the unity applications menu?
[14:45] <theadmin> doomrobo: /usr/share/applications and some other places.
[14:45] <om26er> monty156, the low resolution problem have a fix(kind of) if you want http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Fix-the-Big-and-Ugly-Plymouth-Logo-in-Ubuntu-10-04-140810.shtml
[14:45] <doomrobo> theadmin, thanx
[14:45] <cmr> compdoc, TCP connection, for example
[14:46] <monty156> im running 11.04. that matter?
[14:46] <theadmin> doomrobo: That's system-wide, for your user, likely, ~/.local/share/applications
[14:46] <doomrobo> ok
[14:47] <K350> Evolution assk for a default keyring password. I've no idea what password. This started to happen after an update. What to do, anyone?
[14:47] <om26er> monty156, the fix works in 11.04 I tested
[14:48] <Hyperbyte> Can't Samba just use the normal Linux authentication rather than it's own password database?
[14:48] <alkafoo> rather than its*
[14:48] <dddbmt> Hi guys. For some reason every time I watch a flash movie on the internet (youtube etc.) it goes double speed + there's no sound. I've created another user on my machine - from there it works perfectly. Any ideas? (Ubuntu 11.04)
[14:48] <theadmin> K350: Hit Alt+F2, type "seahorse", hit Enter, find the "login" keyring, and delete it's password.
[14:48] <iceroot_> Hyperbyte: samba can use ldap e.g.
[14:48] <alkafoo> dddbmt: neat
[14:48] <monty156> om26er: thank you :D will this sort the problem of the text being overlayed over the plymouth theme
[14:48] <iceroot_> Hyperbyte: also samba can use the normal pam-stack and so using the "normal" linux-auth
[14:49] <alkafoo> dddbmt: what browser?
[14:49] <dddbmt> alkafoo, both chromium and firefox.
[14:49] <Hyperbyte> iceroot_, I've already configured pam/nss to use ldap.  Do I need to configure Samba to use LDAP then still, or can I just tell Samba to use pam?
[14:49] <alkafoo> both, interesting
[14:49] <om26er> monty156, yes, it made my install almost text free
[14:49] <K350> theadmin: Ah thanks! Oh, who, what sat the password. Shouldn't I know it?
[14:49] <dddbmt> alkafoo, as I said it works correct if I log in as another user in ubuntu. So I don't think it's a browser setting? (might be wrong though)
[14:49] <theadmin> K350: I have no idea about that
[14:50] <monty156> om26er: thank you:D
[14:50] <geirha> dddbmt: With both users, open about:plugins in firefox. See if you see a difference regarding flash.
[14:50] <om26er> monty156, yw ;-)
[14:50] <K350> theadmin: Ok , thanks again!:-)
[14:50] <alkafoo> dddbmt: for Firefox, compare ~/.mozilla/plugins directories
[14:50] <iceroot_> Hyperbyte: if i am correct you can say pam or ldap. i am using a config here against ldap. maybe have a look at #samba for further infos
[14:51] <Hyperbyte> iceroot_, thanks. :)
[14:51] <K350> theadmin: I've no such program - seahorse
[14:51] <theadmin> K350: Huh... It used to be installed by default
[14:51] <h00k> .13
[14:51] <dddbmt> alkafoo, I only got "extensions" and "firefox" under ~/.mozilla
[14:51] <theadmin> K350: You should probably sudo apt-get install seahorse
[14:51] <alkafoo> dddbmt: for both users?
[14:52] <K350> theadmin: I see. And this has noting to do with my computer password or user password, no?
[14:52] <Combatjuan> Is there an ubuntu subchannel for help with kernel compiles?
[14:52] <theadmin> K350: Nope
[14:52] <h00k> !kernelcompile | Combatjuan this may help
[14:53] <theadmin> Combatjuan: Kernel compilation has nothing to do with Ubuntu to be honest
[14:53] <K350> theadmin: Ok, thanks again!:-)
[14:53] <dddbmt> alkafoo, yes - for both users.
[14:53] <theadmin> K350: No problem.
[14:53] <alkafoo> dddbmt: neat
[14:53] <alkafoo> dddbmt: you check what geirha said?
[14:54] <theadmin> Combatjuan: Geez seriously, "make menuconfig && make && make modules_install"
[14:54] <pyghassen> hi I have a problem after installing ubuntu
[14:54] <pyghassen> I got grup rescue insatead!!!!!!!!!
[14:54] <pyghassen> instead
[14:54] <alkafoo> pyghassen: instead of what
[14:55] <pyghassen> the system boot and ubuntu
[14:55] <pyghassen> how to fix it?
[14:55] <dddbmt> alkafoo, geirha - about:plugins are the same for flash.
[14:55] <dddbmt> in ff
[14:56] <dddbmt> alkafoo, geirha - it's doubble speed in both chromium and FF, and it works on another user.. Couldn't it be some user setting?

How am I able to fix this
[14:56] <rickard> Hi, is there a killer log file viewer for ubuntu? I want something better than tail :) and the system log viewer.
[14:56] <Combatjuan> theadmin: I should clarify.  I did follow that guide and of course actually compiling the kernel was easy.  My problems (I think) are ubuntu specific.  The linux-headers.deb it created has dependency conflicts I'm not sure how to resolve.
[14:57] <theadmin> Combatjuan: Oh, I see...
[14:57] <dddbmt> alkafoo, geirha - I onced played a flash game that allowed me to change the speed of the game. The problem MIGHT have occured after that - if that is any help?
[14:57] <geirha> dddbmt: Yes, that's what I think, but which user setting it could be is a mystery for me currently.
[14:57] <x0r> is there a newbie channel for asking help questions
[14:57] <theadmin> Combatjuan: Probably #ubuntu-dev then
[14:57] <mediapinta> hi! One question about Gwibber. I added 3 Twitter accounts, but the general view only show replys from the first account (Shouldn't it show replys from the 3 acounts?) Thanks
[14:57] <theadmin> x0r: Here's the place
[14:57] <Combatjuan> theadmin: Thanks.
[14:57] <theadmin> Combatjuan: Or is it #ubuntu-devel? I forget
[14:57] <x0r> okay
[14:57] <geirha> dddbmt: Ah, if you right click on a flash-box, you should get some settings. Look there.
[14:58] <x0r> I have tried installing ubuntu server 11.04 on a gateway and after the installation is done, when it is syncing disks to reboot, I get a kernel p[anic
[14:58] <x0r> i did not find anything googling
[14:58] <h00k> x0r: you could check your disk you used to install is correct
[14:59] <h00k> !md5sum | x0r
[14:59] <selite> How to restore Kate's default settings?
[14:59] <Combatjuan> theadmin: Looks like it's #ubuntu-devel.  #ubuntu-dev exists but is mostly a ghost town probably inhabited by those searching for #ubuntu-devel
[14:59] <selite> Reinstalling it doesn't restore it to the default settings.
[14:59] <Genezer> Can anyone help me with getting 1280x1024 resolution and unity on 11.04? I am using an nVidia 7800GT graphics card and don't know what to do
[14:59] <dddbmt> geirha, hmm - can't find anything that indicates speed. Neither in "Settings" nor "Global settings".
[14:59] <douglas> Should I take driver patching questions to #ubuntu-devel?
[14:59] <selite> Anyone willing to help?
[15:00] <theadmin> Combatjuan: lol
[15:00] <x0r> if the md5 checksums work out, wht would be the next step
[15:00] <genii-around> selite: rm ~/.kde/share/config/katerc
[15:00] <geirha> dddbmt: I see a speed test in the right-click menu. I don't think that'll fix it, but it shouldn't hurt to try anyway.
[15:00] <h00k> x0r: test your memory to make sure that's good
[15:00] <alkafoo> selite: find ~/ -iname '*kate*'
[15:00] <konsumer> Genezer, i have that same problem :(
[15:00] <x0r> also, the installation image was named something...amd64
[15:00] <dddbmt> geirha, From youtube: "Your average video speed at this location from Jul 25, 2011 to Aug 23, 2011 was 9.85 Mbps."
[15:00] <Genezer> konsumer: It's bloody annoying :[
[15:01] <selite> genii-around: Omg it is fixed, thank you sooooooooo much.
[15:01] <x0r> does it matter that this is a intel i5 core
[15:01] <konsumer> no one here knows what to do
[15:01] <ramvi> I'm trying to fix a terminal where it just says $ instead of name$hostname: and tab dont auto-complete. I've removed .bashrc. How do I keep troubleshooting?
[15:01] <genii-around> selite: You're welcome
[15:01] <dddbmt> geirha, I think it's download speed?
[15:01] <h00k> x0r: nah, you should still be okay. I run on an i5
[15:01] <h00k> x0r: that means you installed the 64-bit version, which the i5 supports, and that shouldn't be any kind of issue
[15:01] <geirha> dddbmt: Hang on, it appears flash stores its settings in ~/.macromedia/, so try closing all browsers, mv ~/.macromedia ~/.macromedia.old
[15:02] <alkafoo> geirha: wow, that's some enduring legacy naming
[15:03] <dddbmt> geirha, still nothing.
[15:03] <mediapinta> hi! Question about Gwibber. I added 3 Twitter accounts, but the general view only show replys from the first account (Shouldn't it show replys from the 3 acounts?) Thanks
[15:03] <Genezer> konsumer: have you had any luck so far?
[15:04] <x0r> when I reboot the box after the kernel panic, it boots into windows, I do not see the grub menu.  Does the guided install stick grub on the disk by default?
[15:04] <pyghassen> I have no idea what to do, I installed ubuntu but when  I rebooted I got grub rescue instead
[15:04] <KM0201> x0r: it installs grub onto the mbr of the internal drive,yes
[15:05] <x0r> so, this might be aclue
[15:05] <x0r> a clue
[15:05] <mediapinta> (i mean 'replies')
[15:05] <x0r> since there is no grub menu, maybe the install is confused and wrtibng to some other area
[15:05] <konsumer> Genezer, none that actually worked
[15:05] <geirha> dddbmt: Hm. Puzzling. I made a small change to the flash settings, then ran  find ~ -mmin -2   to list all files changed in the last two minutes, and .macromedia was the only one that stood out as related to flash. If that's not it, I'm out of ideas :/
[15:05] <Genezer> -sigh-
[15:06] <pyghassen> do I have to reinstall?
[15:06] <pyghassen> or what?
[15:06] <auronandace> !grub2 | pyghassen
[15:06] <pyghassen> this is the second time by the way
[15:06] <genii-around> x0r: Did you try to install onto a RAID of some kind?
[15:07] <pyghassen> no!
[15:07] <x0r> I don't think so. but I will have to see if this has some raid thing on it
[15:07] <x0r> it is a new box my boss bought from bestbuy yesterday
[15:07] <x0r> has 1 1Tb disk in it
[15:07] <x0r> the model is a dell DX4860-UB21P
[15:08] <x0r> no manual
[15:08] <genii-around> x0r: Ah, OK. Grub has problems to be installed to stuff like RAID5
[15:09] <Genezer> Looking for help with 1280x1024 resolution on nVidia 7800GT if anyone can be obliging?
[15:09] <cfedde> x0r: that googles as a gateway part number.
[15:09] <x0r> damn
[15:09] <x0r> I seem to alwys say dell
[15:09] <x0r> it is a gateway
[15:09] <jrib> Genezer: did you install the nvidia drivers using System → Administration → Hardware Drivers?
[15:10] <douglas> Can someone please tell me how I can get around an error in my blacklist.conf file?
[15:10] <dddbmt> geirha, okay, guess I'll have to look further. Thanks you very much for your time though!! :)
[15:11] <Davion> hello there
[15:11] <Genezer> jrib: Installed, it won't let me select anything higher than 1024x768 but I have unity, uninstalled, same issue but no unity... I know my card and monitor can run 1280x1024, I had that an hour ago in Win7
[15:11] <bobweaver> what is the most stable kernel for 10.10
[15:11] <bobweaver> ??
[15:11] <genii-around> x0r: http://us.gateway.com/gw/en/US/content/model/PT.GCCP2.004 indicates it has only one hard drive.
[15:11] <schnuffle> douglas: be more precise and people will try to help
[15:11] <jrib> Genezer: are you using nvidia-settings to try to do so?
[15:11] <x0r> thats the one
[15:11] <jrib> Genezer: and have  you verified the drivers are active by reading /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[15:11] <Genezer> jrib: Aye I am...
[15:12] <alkafoo> bobweaver: whichever one your package manager updates you to
[15:12] <bobweaver> alkafoo: what

[15:12] <Davion> I'd want to ask: I didn't partition my harddisk before installing ubuntu, actually it has now 500 gb solid space. Is there any way to partition my harddisk while ubuntu is living in it?
[15:12] <alkafoo> andres_: /msg alis list *es

[15:13] <vyrdin> v
[15:13] <bobweaver> Pici: you rock
[15:13] <qop> or gparted
[15:13] <rypervenche> Davion: Yes, you can shrink your partition using gparted or another package like that. You have to be running a liveCD to do ti though.
[15:13] <qop> not necesarily
[15:13] <alkafoo> Pici: is that latest stable available, or what shipped with it?
[15:13] <Davion> qop: got gparted, thanks ^•^
[15:14] <qop> alwyas

[15:14] <alkafoo> bobweaver: which is exactly what I said =P
[15:14] <alkafoo> okay as popular bands go
[15:15] <x0r> so ubuntu on sandy bride is no go then?
[15:15] <Davion> rypervenche: so it means, I can't run this tool while running on hdd-based ubuntu (like now)...
[15:16] <BluesKaj> x0r, what makes you think that ?
[15:16] <schnuffle> Davion: not if you want to change the partition your are working on
[15:16] <x0r> I was just infoirmed that sandy bridge and ubuntu has problerms
[15:16] <rypervenche> Davion: The HDD cannot be mounted when you do it.
[15:17] <alkafoo> x0r: someone just told me you have problems getting on IRC
[15:17] <alkafoo> imagine my surprise when I saw you here
[15:17] <alkafoo> clearly there is magic at work
[15:17] <x0r> reading up,    <genii-around>	x0r: It has a Sandy Bridge chipset which may currently be problemmatic for Ubuntu
[15:18] <Davion> rypervenche: I see, thanks for info.. Gonna go with externalOS then.
[15:18] <x0r> thats is where I got the info
[15:18] <x0r> from this channel
[15:18] <Genezer> ...
[15:18] <eypal> I need to contact a person working at Canonical. Is it possible throught this irc channel or should I try another ways?
[15:18] <genii-around> x0r: I had issues previously installing to this chipset
[15:18]  * Genezer beats his graphics card with a hammer
[15:18] <x0r> I belive you, cause I am having trouble now
[15:18] <vincenzo_00x> hi, i have a question about the nvidia drivers
[15:19] <x0r> is there a beta version of ubuntu that might work on this chepset?
[15:19] <alkafoo> x0r: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/may
[15:19] <Pici> alkafoo: Thats not helpful.
[15:19] <Genezer> jrib: any ideas?
[15:19] <alkafoo> x0r: Pici speak for you?
[15:19] <vincenzo_00x> i can't find a way to run the nvidia drivers for the nvidia 520m for my laptop
[15:19] <BluesKaj> vincenzo_00x, ask your question
[15:20] <jrib> Genezer: in /var/log/Xorg.0.log, you confirmed nvidia is in use and no errors?
[15:20] <Pici> x0r: I have heard that 11.10 will play nicer with sandy bridge, but it is currently in alpha status and may not work well period.
[15:20] <Pici> alkafoo: Excuse me?
[15:20] <alkafoo> vincenzo_00x: which ways have you tried?
[15:20] <vincenzo_00x> every time i try to use that driver, at startup, plymouth won't work
[15:20] <jrib> !fixres | Genezer
[15:20] <vincenzo_00x> it fail to starts
[15:20] <alkafoo> Pici: hrmm?
[15:21] <Genezer> jrib: ...whut? Is this where I tell you I am a complete nub at Ubuntu?
[15:21] <alkafoo> vincenzo_00x: what does, X?
[15:21] <bobweaver> vincenzo_00x:  It is nvida bug I have it also
[15:21] <jrib> Genezer: I'm just asking you to check the log.  I asked you before, but I'm not sure if you replied to that question or my previous one
[15:21] <bobweaver> that is why I install new kernel
[15:21] <alkafoo> bobweaver: that resolve it?
[15:21] <vincenzo_00x> @bobweaver, doh!
[15:22] <jrib> Genezer: check /var/log/Xorg.0.log first, but that last wiki page explains how to enter custom resolutions
[15:22] <bobweaver> vincenzo_00x: let me guess ctrl+alt+f1 wont work either
[15:22] <vincenzo_00x> i have downloaded the driver from the nvidia official site
[15:22] <Genezer> I must have missed it jrib... I will go have a look at the log now... pointers on what to look for?
[15:22] <jrib> Genezer: grep for nvidia and also check for lines that start with "(EE)"
[15:22] <vincenzo_00x> @bobweaver, yes, after i have installed the driver there is no way to start the gui
[15:23] <bobweaver> vincenzo_00x: we are working on the same thing
[15:23] <bobweaver> lol
[15:23] <Genezer> jrib: PM?
[15:23] <vincenzo_00x> i have the same problem if i install the drivers provided by ubuntu
[15:24] <BluesKaj> vincenzo_00x, have you tried admin>additional drivers>recommended driver ?
[15:24] <jrib> Genezer: better to stay in channel so others can help (I'll be afk soon too)
[15:24] <vincenzo_00x> @BluesKaj, yes...
[15:24] <vincenzo_00x> everything...
[15:24] <BluesKaj> vincenzo_00x, ok, I had to ask :)
[15:24] <Genezer> There is something in the log with a EE...
[15:24] <Genezer> I'll pastebin it
[15:25] <vincenzo_00x> BluesKaj: ok :)
[15:25] <x0r> so is sandy brige the video?
[15:25] <Genezer> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu.com/673901/
[15:26] <jrib> Genezer: ah, then that explains alot :D  How did you install the driver?
[15:26] <Genezer> I used the driver thing that popped up
[15:26] <Genezer> it asked me for my password
[15:26] <Genezer> et voila
[15:27] <jrib> Genezer: can you pastebin: « dpkg -l '*nvidia*' | grep '^ii' »  also what version of ubuntu is this?  Have you rebooted since the driver installed?
[15:27] <DroidAgent> I used unetbootin to make a USB bootdisk for ubuntu server.. but it's trying to detect a CD, which it obviously doesn't have. I tried adding cdrom-detect/try-usb=true but it had no effect. When I drop to a shell in the installer I can see and mount the USB disk. Any way I can convince the installer to use my mounted USB drive as a source?
[15:28] <Genezer> ah... reboot...*cough*
[15:28] <Genezer> be right back jrib
[15:28] <rypervenche> Genezer: hahaha
[15:28] <Genezer> :$
[15:28] <jrib> Genezer: if you really want to avoid it, you should be able to exit X and just modprobe nvidia
[15:29] <schnuffle> DroidAgent: unetbootin seems problematic. I switched to multisystem which works flawlessly for me
[15:30] <DroidAgent> schnuffle: ok I'll try that, thanks.
[15:30] <bytesaber_work> how do i prevent 11.04 installer from detecting my EFI.  i want it to install just like it would on a BIOS system.    EFI doesn't perform well for nvidia drivers.
[15:33] <eypal> so no people from Canonical Ltd. here?
[15:34] <theadmin> eypal: Nay, those only provide support on commercial basis
[15:34] <wolfric> I'm running solr-jetty. Where do the command line arguments reside for running solr in java. i need to set the home to be multi-core but i can't find any reference to home in /etc/jetty /etc/solr or /etc/defaults
[15:34] <Aquix_> I would not say that in a ubuntu room if I worked for canonical. More akward than saying your a girl
[15:35] <eypal> theadmin, ok.. a kind of commercial related thing on my mind.. but have to look other ways
[15:35] <theadmin> Aquix_: Heh... Yeah, that could get you tons of PMs from strange peoples :D
[15:35] <eypal> sent them a message throught their website but didn't get any automatic confirmation email and no other replies either so i am not sure whether the initial message has even got through. :(
[15:35] <Aquix_> yup
[15:37] <Aquix_> eypal, what you want to tell them?
[15:38] <x0r> thanks genii-around for the clue on sandy bridge
[15:38] <x0r> saved me lots of head scratching
[15:39] <x0r> I am going to try 11.04 alpha 3 and see if it installs
[15:39] <theadmin> x0r: Please note that support for it is provided only in #ubuntu+1
[15:39] <edbian> X0x: I think you want 11.10 alpha 3 btw
[15:40] <x0r> yes, I am actully getting 11.10 alpha 3
[15:41] <eypal> Aquix_: the company I represent offers services and support for Ubuntu and we would like to have our contact information listed at their web site
[15:42] <jpds> theadmin: I wouldn't be too sure about that.
[15:42] <theadmin> jpds: About... what, exactly?
[15:42] <Genezer> jrib: I'm back, nVidia driver installed, unity working, still no resolution
[15:43] <CoolCoder> Any idea about how to fix update manager issue. Please check this link http://goo.gl/cR08E for details and the error while update is here http://pastebin.com/BnpgmUnD
[15:43] <ikonia-remote> CoolCoder: that PPA appears to be dead
[15:43] <edbian> CoolCoder: remove those ppa
[15:43] <CoolCoder> how to fix?
[15:44] <Aquix_> eypal, post some paper with a letter head. That get their attention :)
[15:44] <CoolCoder> should i edit gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list edbian:
[15:44] <theadmin> CoolCoder: Depends on how you added the PPA
[15:44] <schnuffle> CoolCoder: http://bigbrovar.aoizora.org/index.php/2010/01/10/how-to-safely-remove-ppa-repository-from-ubuntu/
[15:44] <edbian> CoolCoder: Ummm, I think there is a command purge-ppa or something like that
[15:44] <jpds> eypal: You filed out https://forms.canonical.com/marketplace/ ?
[15:44] <h00k> eypal: check out http://www.canonical.com/partners
[15:44] <theadmin> And ew, graphical editors for system files...
[15:45] <edbian> theadmin: oh hush
[15:45] <edbian> theadmin: I do that all the time
[15:45] <theadmin> edbian: Heh, okay :D
[15:45] <edbian> :)
[15:45] <CoolCoder> i didnot add any ppa. i just updates every time when manager ask for :P
[15:45] <Genezer> ...
[15:45] <theadmin> CoolCoder: Post your /etc/apt/sources.list and anything from /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[15:46] <Genezer> !fixres
[15:46] <schnuffle> CoolCoder: You did or someone else. At least acording to the screenshot
[15:46] <CoolCoder> here is the sources.list http://pastebin.com/HUgLcVm9
[15:47] <Dulcin> Hi, how can I determine where grub is installed?
[15:47] <Dulcin> on which partition
[15:47] <schnuffle> CoolCoder: That file is PPA free, so there muist be a file inm /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[15:47] <ikonia-remote> Dulcin: it's normally put on the master boot record
[15:47] <edbian> Dulcin: It is in a /boot folder
[15:48] <ikonia-remote> Dulcin: the configs are in /etc/grub and the binaries it needs likes in /boot
[15:48] <edbian> Dulcin: It is in the MBR and on some partition (it is too large to fit)
[15:48] <theadmin> CoolCoder: That looks about fine, do you have any files located in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ ?
[15:48] <andrewle> Can I use monit to monitor and nfs-kernel-server?
[15:48] <andrewle> nfs-kernel-server doesn't create a pidfile, so I've been at a loss
[15:48] <Dulcin> So if I have a /boot/grub/ folder it means that it is installed on the same paritition as ubuntu?
[15:48] <CoolCoder> gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d gives file not found
[15:48] <theadmin> CoolCoder: Ot
[15:48] <schnuffle> CoolCoder: can reset your system with ppa-purge. That will uninstall the repository and set every package to the one from the origin rep
[15:48] <theadmin> CoolCoder: It's a directory.
[15:48] <ikonia-remote> Dulcin: no, it's normally installed on the master boot record of the disk
[15:48] <schnuffle> CoolCoder: its a directory
[15:48] <edbian> Dulcin: if that folder is on the same partition as ubuntu (this is most likely the case)
[15:49] <theadmin> CoolCoder: cd there and then ls, see if any files exist
[15:49] <CoolCoder> ok
[15:49] <eypal> jpds: yes, that was the form I filled and sent.
[15:49] <CoolCoder> http://pastebin.com/YRhrH8eV these are files inside that folder
[15:49] <Dulcin> ikonia-remote: Well it is all on the same harddisk, just different partitions
[15:49] <eypal> jpds: i guess i will just have to wait. I can understand they must be pretty busy
[15:50] <Dulcin> but I guess that answered my question
[15:50] <ikonia-remote> CoolCoder: quite a few PPA's
[15:50] <CoolCoder> yes
[15:50] <theadmin> CoolCoder: Hm... And what's the error again?
[15:50] <jpds> eypal: PM.
[15:50] <ikonia-remote> Dulcin: grub is installed to the master boot record - not a partition normally
[15:50] <ikonia-remote> Dulcin: forget the partitions
[15:50] <theadmin> ikonia-remote: grub still does store it's configs in /boot so it does need a partition there
[15:51] <CoolCoder> http://bigbrovar.aoizora.org/index.php/2010/01/10/how-to-safely-remove-ppa-repository-from-ubuntu/  i am following this to remove those ppa?
[15:51] <schnuffle> CoolCoder: you can try to fix it with ppa-purge ppa:exaile-devel-ppa-natty
[15:51] <ikonia-remote> theadmin: yes, /boot and /etc/grub are key, but grub actually lives on the mbr
[15:51] <schnuffle> CoolCoder: Yes
[15:51] <Dulcin> ikonia-remote: but when installing ubuntu, it asks me where to install grub boot loader, which partition do i select there? same as ubuntu partition?
[15:51] <ikonia-remote> Dulcin: it doesn't ask you to put it on a partition
[15:51] <theadmin> ikonia-remote: I do know, figured after I accidentally installed grub to a partition and then couldn't boot :D
[15:52] <ikonia-remote> Dulcin: put it on the master boot record,
[15:52] <schnuffle> Dulcin: If you use grub as initial boot loader it needs to go to the MBR of your first hdd
[15:52] <Dulcin> ikonia-remote: It's a list with sda1 sda2 sdb1 sdb2 etc.
[15:52] <grendal-prime> hey guys i got this werid thing with 10.04-64 bit install...nautilus wont open
[15:52] <Dulcin> well let's put it this way: how do I know what my MBR is?
[15:52] <zattalov> hi
[15:52] <ikonia-remote> Dulcin: you should have been presented with the option to put grub on the mbr or partition, select mbr
[15:52] <theadmin> Dulcin: It's normally /dev/sda
[15:52] <grendal-prime> unless i su to root then its fine.
[15:53] <ikonia-remote> Dulcin: the mbr is the disk - not the partition
[15:53] <theadmin> grendal-prime: Some weirdness with the settings I guess, erase whatever nautilus config directory is
[15:53] <NickHu> Hey all, I have two internet facing interfaces, both connected to two different internet connections, eth0 and wlan0, how do I check which "route" to the internet is being used for firefox etc?

[16:00] <clustermagnet> hey guys, to install ubuntu 11, with LVM, what does one need to do?
[16:00] <ikonia-remote> clustermagnet: in what respect ?
[16:00] <clustermagnet> boot , apt-get lvm, run the installer?
[16:00] <clustermagnet> ikonia:  /boot ext4 rest on lvgroups
[16:00] <CoolCoder> schnuffle: http://pastebin.com/57uG2apK
[16:00] <ikonia-remote> clustermagnet: I'd advise you not to put /boot on lvm - the rest is fine
[16:00] <ward__> hmmm, if i make images for all the possible plates (only a few) then i can use more general software to detect the image i guess :D
[16:00] <clustermagnet> ikonia-remote: thats what i said
[16:00] <schnuffle> CoolCoder: try sudo ppa-purge ppa:exaile-devel/ppa
[16:01] <clustermagnet> i dont see that ubuntu allows for lvm in installer
[16:01] <ikonia-remote> clustermagnet: the alternative installer contains the LVM install options, not sure if the desktop CD does at this time
[16:01] <clustermagnet> do i need to download some alternate?
[16:01] <clustermagnet> ya, desktop doesnt
[16:01] <clustermagnet> thanks
[16:01] <compdoc> Ubuntu doesnt use LVM normally, but I dont see why you cant set it up
[16:01] <clustermagnet> doh, should have known :(
[16:01] <ikonia-remote> clustermagnet: the alternative installer from ubuntu.com
[16:01] <clustermagnet> yeh, got ya, thanks!
[16:01] <ikonia-remote> great
[16:01] <CoolCoder> http://pastebin.com/E4AaVE4T  schnuffle:
[16:02] <ward__> does anybody know any open soruce software tat can search large images to see if it contains something resembling a small jpg? (even if its photographed from a diffrent angle / upside-down, ...)
[16:02] <ikonia-remote> CoolCoder: you've been told what to do
[16:02] <ikonia-remote> CoolCoder: remove the PPA's
[16:02] <CoolCoder> delete?
[16:02] <ikonia-remote> CoolCoder: yes
[16:03] <ikonia-remote> CoolCoder: you've been told this
[16:03] <ward__> kindof like artoolkit can do i guess
[16:03] <schnuffle> CoolCoder: Okay then the hard way. just sudo mv exaile-devel-ppa-natty.list exaile-devel-ppa-natty.list.old
[16:03] <CoolCoder> i am going to delete the 2 exaile-devel-ppa-natty.list, exaile-devel-ppa-natty.list.save
[16:03] <CoolCoder> schnuffle: ok\
[16:04] <kyan> Hello! I'm getting an error "I don't know where the CDROM lives" when restoring a Mondo backup. Full error: http://pastebin.com/75VcN69y Mondoarchive log: http://www.pastebin.cc/index.php?show=109 Mindi log: http://pastebin.com/e7rc5B6M
[16:04] <CoolCoder> I think its ok now. thanks everyone.
[16:05] <BluesKaj> CoolCoder, I just removed the ppas from the sources.list . alt+f2,  gksudo nautilus /etc/apt/sources.list.d , the found the ppas I wanted to remove
[16:05] <BluesKaj> then
[16:05] <schnuffle> CoolCoder: You can still run into problems with packages that are still installed from that repo
[16:05] <CoolCoder> schnuffle: hmm
[16:05] <amitrana> Hi, I just upgraded to 11.10 from 11.04 and my skype stopped working. it gives error "skype: error while loading shared libraries: libXss.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" . can anyone help me how can I fix it? These libraries are present
[16:06] <schnuffle> CoolCoder: But that can normally be solved by uninstalling these packages when it happens
[16:06] <rumpe1> amitrana, it the lib named exactly like in the error-message?
[16:07] <terry_> amitrana: You did what?
[16:07] <CoolCoder> schnuffle: now we renamed it. correct?>
[16:07] <SwedeMike> amitrana: make sure you have the latest version of skype. I have skype working on i386 on 11.04 anyway.
[16:07] <amitrana> yes, I did a find and got this "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libXss.so.1.0.0
[16:07] <amitrana> /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libXss.so.1"
[16:08] <amitrana> so yes, exactly same.
[16:08] <Polah> amitrana: 11.10 is unstable and unsupported.
[16:08] <amitrana> yes I know :) was trying my luck
[16:09] <grendal-prime> theadmin, ya i just realized there were like 140 megs of updates fro that thing..im gonna run thouse first see if that fixes it.
[16:09] <amitrana> most of the stuff worked fine. so far I have noticed cheese and skype broken
[16:10] <Pici> amitrana: 11.10 support is only in #ubuntu+1, not #ubuntu
[16:10] <grendal-prime> Im doing that while im buiding win7_64bit machine hehehe   And there is a kernel upgrade.
[16:10] <amitrana> Pici: Thanks. I didnt know that. Will try there.
[16:13] <grendal-prime> windows desktop update takes longer than the entire host systems update...crazy.
[16:13] <HoboSteaux> today i was attemping to troubleshoot my wireless using daemon.log and noticed that all the logs ended in april 25 (ubuntu 11.04). Where are these logs now?
[16:14] <grendal-prime> I have your logs
[16:15] <grendal-prime> i need 10,000 bucks in a brown paper bag.
[16:15] <HoboSteaux> heh thats cute
[16:15] <grendal-prime> yep...and...i know what is wrong with your system...(cause im looking at your logs)  That will only cost you 1,000 bucks... Welcome to open source heheheeh
[16:16] <HoboSteaux> its not my system its my locations wifi infrastructure
[16:16] <grendal-prime> just kidding by the way i have not a clue where your logs are...but ill look really hard for them if i can get 10 grand for finding them!
[16:16] <marina__> hallo
[16:16] <coraxx> here is a question...  Can I sign/accept a software respository that I don't have the public-key for, so that is doesn't appear as 'unauthenticated' in the update-process ?
[16:17] <grendal-prime> kinda defeats the purpose of it..
[16:17] <grendal-prime> just get the key
[16:17] <coraxx> marina__: hallo :-)
[16:18] <marina__> hatte gestern ein virus
[16:18] <Pici> !de | marina__
[16:18] <theadmin> marina__: Ubuntu hat doch keine virusen
[16:18] <coraxx> grendal-prime: I'm downloading from Caucho.com ...and I've been unsuccessful in obtaining a public key...what do I do to get it ?
[16:18] <marina__> dachte ich auch
[16:18] <Pici> coraxx: Your error should contain a key ID
[16:19] <Tadcrazio> Is there a way to change the color of the windows buttons without changing a theme?
[16:19] <Polah> What packages are required to allow proper suspension? As it is now my computer halts but still provides at least a video signal to my monitor of a blank screen and continues to run the drives and suchlike. So it doesn't actually turn off and hitting the power button starts the computer up as if it were off.
[16:20] <coraxx> Pici: yes...I was trying to recreate the error, so that I could get the key from the public server manually ...but I don't seem to get the error unless I update the package, which is not nessecary now ...is there another way to obtain the KeyID from a repository ?
[16:20] <afeijo> how can I replace the popup that is shown when another mp3 start to play or when someone msg me? the default one is nice, but I cannot move it nor click it to open that event
[16:21] <Pici> Rallias: Please pick a nick and stick with it, or part here if you plan on doing that.
[16:21] <Rallias> sorry
[16:21] <Pici> coraxx: Are you not getting the error when you use apt-get update?
[16:22] <tuxmax> Hi all
[16:22] <coraxx> Pici: very oddly no ...only when an actual update is available, then I get it.
[16:22] <dankest> How can I recover my root password?
[16:22] <Polah> afeijo: Yoou can disable the notification area plugin in Banshee if you don't want that to appear. or Status Icon in rhymtnox I believe
[16:23] <Pici> coraxx: Well, you can probably do: sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com <key>   when you see the error again.
[16:23] <szal> dankest: there is none to recover
[16:23] <Polah> dankest: There is no root password unless you set one.
[16:23] <theadmin> dankest: Ubuntu does not set a root password by default.
[16:23] <synackfin> what's a good PDF editor? (I tried PDFedit but it just shows a blank white page when opening the file)
[16:23] <afeijo> Polah, I want to change it a bit, not disable :)
[16:23] <bbbbbbbb> When I start my laptop I get this annoying message every time: "The system bios has detected your notebook PC was placed in hibernation to avoid overheating . The system is now operating normally and your data should remain intact. Overheating  may occur if the cooling vents are blocked or the operating temperature  exceed the specification. The notebook PC should return to normal  operation once the situation is resolved. System Temperature 
[16:24] <Polah> afeijo: Oh, you'd need to customise your desktop environment then, someone could probably tell you how
[16:24] <coraxx> Pici: my thoughts exactly :-)  ...just don't know how to get the KeyID manually :-(
[16:24] <synackfin> I want to be able to fill out PDF forms, change font on selected text, and save
[16:24] <meelu> i need help with my php installation with apache, the problem is iv tried everything i can but mysql isn't loaded into php5, it is installed though can anyone help please?
[16:24] <Polah> Synackfin: okular
[16:24] <dankest> szal: Polah: theadmin thanks
[16:24] <dankest> SHould have just googled it
[16:24] <szal> synackfin: the combination of 'good' and 'PDF editor', in my experience, applies to exactly one piece of software -- Adobe Acrobat
[16:24] <meelu>  im running Ubuntu 10.10
[16:25] <synackfin> Polah: does okular edit PDF forms and let me change font sizes?
[16:26] <tuxmax> Which program can I use to convert video for my psp?
[16:26] <Pici> coraxx: you could look in /var/log/dpkg.log or /var/log/apt/term.log (or history.log) for error messages.
[16:27] <Polah> synackfin: Oh, editing no.
[16:27] <technikfreak> hello have any heared about to have the hjp touchpad and ubuntun running`?
[16:28] <j0hndoe> I'm planning to create multiple partition on my hdd, is there a defragmenting software/tool for linux?
[16:28] <technikfreak> gparted
[16:28] <technikfreak> j0hndoe, thats very easy to use

[16:28] <pietro10> Hi. After taking out/putting back fonts by accident last night (from package manager), I notice the Japanese font in Fiefox has changed, but the setting is still sans-serif. What is is by default? It's not DejaVu Sans which is the system sans-serif
[16:29] <andersonchuck> hi
[16:29] <andersonchuck> please can some one help me ?
[16:30] <Pici> !ask
[16:30] <dankest> andersonchuck: with what?  You should ask a question.
[16:30] <andersonchuck>  need lightest browser on the world for ubuntu
[16:30] <andersonchuck> i already try arora but it close it self after use it because of the ram
[16:30] <tensorpudding> andersonchuck: what do you want in your browser?
[16:31] <andersonchuck> i need just for wrowse and download from filehosts
[16:31] <andersonchuck> i dont need any thing else
[16:31] <andersonchuck> as flashplayer etc...
[16:31] <xrdodrx> andersonchuck, I use midori, but elinks is even lighter
[16:31] <andersonchuck> elinks ?
[16:31] <tensorpudding> flashplayer is going to use a quite a lot of resources on any browser you use
[16:31] <xrdodrx> elinks is a textmode browser
[16:31] <pietro10> if it helps, I know the full width numbers have no serif and the characters are more spaced apart
[16:32] <xrdodrx> you can use a framebuffer to display images
[16:32] <xrdodrx> it's the quickest you can get
[16:32] <tensorpudding> midori might be the simplest browser that supports flash, if it does support flash
[16:32] <anadon> hey, that key combination allows you to enter the ascii/unicode value for a character to insert it into text?
[16:32] <xrdodrx> tensorpudding, it does :)
[16:32] <xrdodrx> andersonchuck, ctrl+shift+u
[16:32] <tensorpudding> if you want flash and are having RAM issues, you really ought to buy more RAM because you're not going to get acceptable performance
[16:32] <andersonchuck> what ? i realy didnt understand
[16:33] <xrdodrx> andersonchuck, what part?
[16:33] <grendal-prime> ya so this blows i have to use gksu to run nautilus now?
[16:33] <xrdodrx> !language | grendal-prime
[16:34] <andersonchuck> i can  find lightest browser i need browser without flashplayer etc ..
[16:34] <rypervenche> andersonchuck: links2
[16:34] <tensorpudding> grendal-prime: you don't need to use gksu to run nautilus? why would you
[16:34] <rypervenche> andersonchuck: then open it with xlinks2
[16:34] <andersonchuck> ok so i install it with sudo apt-get install link2 ?
[16:34] <propus> anyony knows how to enable the mouse in the tty console?
[16:35] <xrdodrx> andersonchuck, like I said, elinks and w3m are textmode browsers (you can display images on pages using the framebuffer or imagemagick), or you can install midori and disable flash
[16:35] <xrdodrx> midori will be the easiest to use
[16:35] <propus> anyone even....
[16:35] <rypervenche> andersonchuck: sudo apt-get install links2
[16:35] <tensorpudding> andersonchuck: you aren't going to be able to use flash in elinks/w3m
[16:35] <xrdodrx> propus, it's not possible, that's what X is for :)
[16:35] <grendal-prime> sorry xrdodrx lost my mind for a second there... tensorpudding  I cannot open nautulis with anything but the root user.  Screen just flashes and nothing happens
[16:35] <sir_tyrion> When I leave FF open overnight and come back to it the next day, it becomes a CPU hog, 100% on one of my cores
[16:35] <sir_tyrion> FF6 that is
[16:35] <grendal-prime> and if i try and kick it off from a term to see the error..there is NO error reported
[16:36] <tensorpudding> grendal-prime: open a terminal and try running nautilus, tell me what happens
[16:36] <sir_tyrion> Has that happened to anyone else
[16:36] <andersonchuck> can u give me the command to install it ?
[16:36] <tensorpudding> grendal-prime: by typing 'nautilus' in the terminal and hitting enter
[16:36] <tensorpudding> oh
[16:36] <tensorpudding> grendal-prime: is nautilus running
[16:36] <xrdodrx> andersonchuck, sudo apt-get install elinks && elinks
[16:36] <szal> sir_tyrion: I run Firefox (6.0) for days on end w/o it hogging CPU, not even w/ Flash
[16:37] <szal> the only thing it occasionally hogs is memory
[16:37] <andersonchuck> i got this error
[16:37] <andersonchuck>  terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc'   what():  std::bad_alloc Aborted
[16:37] <terry_> propus: sudo apt-get install gpm
[16:37] <xrdodrx> andersonchuck, when running my command?
[16:37] <andersonchuck> yes
[16:38] <xrdodrx> try typing elinks and hitting return again
[16:38] <xrdodrx> same thing?
[16:38] <propus> terry_: thanks :)
[16:38] <terry_> NP
[16:38] <pietro10> ok how about this
[16:38] <pietro10> what are the default font seetings in Ubuntu 10.04/10.10/11.04 (assuming they changed)?
[16:38] <amin`> does lightdm able to run wmii or dwm?
[16:38] <szal> !crunchbang | amin`
[16:40] <andersonchuck> soo ?
[16:40] <xrdodrx> andersonchuck, did you try running it again like i said
[16:40] <andersonchuck> yes
[16:40] <amin`> what about lightdm. could I discuss it here]
[16:41] <Slart> !who
[16:41] <andersonchuck> i got the same error
[16:41] <_ramo> hi
[16:42] <andersonchuck> so?
[16:43] <xrdodrx> andersonchuck, sorry, I was thinking, and I'm not sure what could be causing that
[16:43] <xrdodrx> it works on my machine :(
[16:44] <amin`> how should I edit lightdm to handle wmii and dwm?
[16:44] <Ramb0> Hi! I had an ubuntu ext4 partition and someone formatted it with ntfs.. is there any program to restore the deleted data?
[16:45] <Ramb0> I searched a lot but couldn't find anyone with the same problem..
[16:45] <ActionParsnip> Ramb0: foremost possibly, if the data hasn't been nuked or overwritten, your backups will be the easiest and most reliable method of data restore
[16:46] <Pici> amin`: What release of Ubuntu are you running?
[16:46] <grendal-prime> tensorpudding, nothing i literally flashes the screen and nothing happens
[16:46] <andersonchuck> ok
[16:46] <scythefwd> arggg... sasl, why couldn't conocal add the script into it's xchat and chatzilla setups to same some of us the issues because we tether
[16:46] <dabukalam> yeah so installing ubuntu from minimal, normal day, suddenly a wild error appears! while installing gnome-applets-data I get "No apport report qritten because the error message indicates a disk full error", this is following a message about stock_weather_foo.png no space left on device
[16:46] <dabukalam> and my hard disk is not full
[16:46] <andersonchuck> can u give me name for the lightest download on ubuntu ?
[16:46] <dabukalam> 11% usage
[16:46]  * amin` is there a wiki for lightdm?//
[16:46] <grendal-prime> tensorpudding, actually the screen doesnt even flash.
[16:46] <grendal-prime> just notuhg
[16:46] <scythefwd> errr... HI, sorry, common typo, those keys are so close together :)
[16:46] <tensorpudding> grendal-prime: is nautilus running in the system monitor?
[16:46] <ActionParsnip> andersonchuck: use the minimal ISO, it installs via the web, the iso is 12Mb. The smallest will more than likely be Lubuntu
[16:47] <xrdodrx> scythefwd, ubuntu is an open source project, you're free to do that if you feel it would be useful for yourself and other ubuntu users
[16:47] <andersonchuck> i ask about downloader nt gui
[16:47] <grendal-prime> yep
[16:47] <dabukalam> !lightdm
[16:47] <grendal-prime> tensorpudding, yep
[16:47] <poison_> my internet connection is very slow
[16:47] <dabukalam> !gdm
[16:47] <poison_> plz help me
[16:47] <dabukalam> !gnome
[16:48] <Ramb0> ActionParsnip I don't have a backup :(.. I'll give foremost a shot.. any other suggestions?
[16:48] <ActionParsnip> andersonchuck: then the lightest without gui is ubuntu minimal
[16:48] <dabukalam> !unity
[16:48] <jrib> dabukalam: is the partition you installed to full?
[16:48] <scythefwd> xrdodrx - I'm not even sure where to start on how unfortunately.  I suspect it's just the config of the .deb... which is a bit above my head.  I'm about the least competent there is on Linux.  I can use it for my needs and that's about it
[16:48] <tensorpudding> grendal-prime: kill it, then try starting nautilus again
[16:48] <dabukalam> jrib: nope
[16:48] <ActionParsnip> Ramb0: that's all. Why do you not have a backup if your data is valuable enough to warrant effort to restore it?
[16:48] <andersonchuck> sorry you didnt understand me
[16:48] <grendal-prime> tensorpudding, that didnt work ither. (tried that earlyer as well)
[16:48] <grendal-prime> and its not working now
[16:49] <poison_> plz anyone give me suggestion to improve my internet speed
[16:49] <pietro10> bah I'll just watch the font fix itself when I actually do move; thanks anyway
[16:49] <tensorpudding> grendal-prime: is it running as root?
[16:49] <scythefwd> ok, now the reason I really came here, 10.10 is the last version that will run on a ppc correct?
[16:49] <poison_> its slower than windows
[16:49] <ActionParsnip> andersonchuck: "<andersonchuck> can u give me name for the lightest download on ubuntu ?"   the lightest download to get Ubuntu is the minimal
[16:50] <ActionParsnip> andersonchuck: if you mean the smallest package then there will be a few, like nano which is a few Kb to download
[16:50] <xrdodrx> scythefwd, it seems that way, technically ppc hasn't been supported officially since 6.10
[16:50] <grendal-prime> tensorpudding, doesnt say in the system mon..let me look under htop
[16:51] <coraxx> Pici: this is weird ... they should naturally be a command that retrieves the KeyID from a repository ... so I really wanna know that command.
[16:51] <grendal-prime> ya running as root
[16:51] <coraxx> Pici: *they = there
[16:51] <scythefwd> xrdodrx, thanks.  Got a friend who wants to dip a toe in and give it a try.. but the only spare he has lying around is an old g4
[16:51] <Ramb0> ActionParsnip, I was doing a backup because I was leaving the country.. but suddenly there where a lot of problems and I was in a hurry.. so I let the computer to my brother and asked PLEASE to do not delete the ubuntu partition.. he misunderstood and tought I told him to delete the ubuntu partition :P.. I have backup of most of the important things however,  work and college assignments.. but personal stuff like photos or things I don't know about
[16:51] <xrdodrx> scythefwd, might want to try debian :)
[16:52] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: Do you know of any linux commands that can retrieve the KeyID from a repository ?
[16:52] <dabukalam> Ramb0: HAHHAHAAHHAA how stupid...
[16:52] <ActionParsnip> Ramb0: all i can suggest is foremost
[16:52] <dabukalam> Ramb0: I LOLed
[16:52] <rumpe1> coraxx, apt-key list maybe?
[16:52] <grendal-prime> ok now it says its running as the user account...but.  still nothing
[16:53] <scythefwd> xrdodrx - he's about 600 miles away, so I can't really be there to help him.
[16:53] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: if you get the GPG key in a terminal, you can run: sudo apt-key adv --recv-key --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com KEYHERE
[16:53] <grendal-prime> tensorpudding, not i got this desktop flashing thing that happens when i try and fire it off
[16:53] <grendal-prime> but nothing appearns
[16:54] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: yeah I know!!!...but I don't have the 'KEYHERE'...that is the one I'm looking for
[16:54] <Omega> I'm running out of partition space, but there is more space on my hard disk, is there a way to resize the partition while in-session (so without a live-cd)?
[16:54] <Ramb0> dabukalam, yeah... it wasn't that funny for me :P
[16:54] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: then run:  sudo apt-get update     you will get the 16 character hex key to add
[16:54] <rumpe1> Omega, you can only resize the partition on-the-fly with special filesystems, not with ext
[16:55] <coraxx> rumpe1: thanx for the command, however it only shows the KeyID for pub_keys that has already been installed...not the KeyID for the respositories with missing pub_keys.
[16:55] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: if you use add-apt-repository instead of adding stuff in sources.list etc, you won't get the issue
[16:55] <benji123> Hi, Does Ubuntu allow to reuse a socket even if in TIME_WAIT state?
[16:55] <Omega> rumpe1: I'm using reiserfs
[16:55] <rumpe1> coraxx, well... then check the reps in sources.list/sources.list.d, which aren't listed
[16:56] <rumpe1> Omega, don't know reiserfs
[16:56] <konsumer> regex compatible with Ubuntu?
[16:56] <konsumer> for scripts
[16:56] <rumpe1> konsumer, yes
[16:56] <szal> konsumer: whole sentences?
[16:56] <rumpe1> konsumer, but there are several different regex-standards
[16:56] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: sudo apt-get update ....its a 'dirty' trick to provoke an error message, that contain the KeyID ...anyways, it doesn't seem to work for me in my case.
[16:56] <konsumer> szal, :)
[16:57] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: not a dirty trick at all, why is it dirty?
[16:57] <konsumer> rumpe1, looks like its compatible. i finally found the article for sockets
[16:57] <konsumer> Thanks for the info :)
[16:57] <zzxworld> 有没有中国人呀
[16:57] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: can you pastebin the output  please

[16:58] <konsumer> type /join #ubuntu-cn
[16:58] <roasted> Question - when you right click the menu up top in gnome 2.x, it says "edit menus." Is there a way to remove that option? I'm setting up an Ubuntu image for a lab and I don't want students to be able to get to edit menu and re-add games and stuff I blocked out.
[16:58] <konsumer> now i wanna see whats going on in there :P
[16:58] <zzxworld> -_-! thanks
[16:58] <konsumer> :P

[16:59] <SmokeyD> hey everyone. If I click on a usb stick in locations, it is automatically mounted and opened. But if I mount it in the terminal with "mount", I need to manually make the mount point, and be root to mount it
[16:59] <ActionParsnip> roasted: if you uninstall alacarte, does the package manager want to gut the OS?
[16:59] <SmokeyD> is there a commandline way to do the same as a normal user as would be done by clicking the usb-stick in nautilus or "locations"
[16:59] <Pici> !lockdown | roasted these links may help
[17:00] <ActionParsnip> SmokeyD: as long as the user is in the right group, it should work
[17:00] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: When the need for a specific information arise ... calling a function/command that among other things (running maybe commands you do not wish to execute at the given time) gives you the information by throwing an error-code, that just so happens to contain it ...not a 'pretty' way to handle data-technology ;-)
[17:01] <SmokeyD> ActionParsnip, in the desktop environment/nautilus, yes. But mount /dev/sdc1 doesn't work, and there is also no mountpoint for the memorystick in /media for instance
[17:01] <harleydude> Is there a reason a torrent will almost finish downloading to like say 99.83% and just hangs and will not finish? I use Deluge instead of Transmission as a torrent client.
[17:01] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: pastebin ...which info would you like ?
[17:01] <rumpe1> roasted, or you can try to locate the menu-config-files and disable write-permission
[17:01] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: or rather....what output would you like to have ?
[17:01] <phoenix_firebrd> what should i do to see the qdebug or kdebug messages in terminal
[17:02] <roasted> rumpe1, I'd still like "administrator" to have access to it, and just restrict everyone else.
[17:02] <oakbox> Hi all, I have been trying to set up eBox on my 10.04 server (followed ubuntu server guide).  I already run a site on port 443, in the setup I changed the port to 10000 but looking at the logs it is still trying to run apache on port 443.  I did a dpkg-reconfigure ebox and tried resetting the port to 10000 (and other ports) but each time i look at the logs after restarting the ebox service it is trying to use port 443.  Can anyone help?
[17:03] <SmokeyD> ActionParsnip, I guess nautilus and gnome do all sorts of magic things that the "mount" commandline tool doesn't do. I am wondering what nautilus/gnome are doing
[17:03] <rumpe1> roasted, thats the magic of file permissions  ... e.g. owner: admin:admin permissions: rw-rw-r--
[17:04] <Pici> roasted: Did you look at the links I gave you at all?
[17:04] <roasted> rumpe1, good thought. I just wonder where the edit menus thing resides.
[17:04] <rumpe1> SmokeyD, usually they use FUSE (filesystem in userspace), which mounts to $HOME/.gvfs
[17:04] <roasted> Pici, oh yes. I'm reading through them now.
[17:04] <roasted> Pici, just continuing a side conversation, that's all. :)
[17:04] <SmokeyD> rumpe1, a usb stick is mounted to /media/<systemlabeloffilesystem>
[17:05] <SmokeyD> try it: put a usb stick in your machine, open the location in nautilus, and check your /media folder
[17:05] <SmokeyD> it is there
[17:05] <c0mrade_> WriteLn.Console("Hello");
[17:06] <delki8> Hey guys how are you?
[17:07] <coraxx> delki8: doing ok...that u for asking...and yourself ?
[17:07] <bytesaber_work> silly floridians.  they're just gonna get scrapped off the surface... again
[17:07] <rumpe1> SmokeyD, well... FUSE isn't always used, e.g. if one was mounted earlier manually to a specific folder(?not sure) or has a fstab entry.
[17:07] <coraxx> delki8: *that = thank
[17:08] <lesshaste> firefox seems to be quite flaky these says.. it freezes on http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-14646334 for example
[17:08] <lesshaste> this is 3.6.20
[17:08] <lesshaste> anyone else see this?
[17:08] <ikonia-remote> lesshaste: does it freeze on any other URL's
[17:08] <lesshaste> you have to click on "live updates"
[17:09] <delki8> coraxx, im ok
[17:09] <SmokeyD> rumpe1, no my ubstick has no fstab entry. I don't know about fuse, but I know that in ubuntu, you can plugin any usb drive, and it is automatically  mounted in /media with the mountpoint being the label of the filesystem, without that mountpoint being present before
[17:09] <lesshaste> ikonia-remote: it seems to freeze on pages that update themselves.. presumably it can't cope with the javascript
[17:09] <ikonia-remote> lesshaste: any other non-BBC examples ?
[17:09] <delki8> did someone here know if in 11.10 gnome 2 will be a option?
[17:09] <SmokeyD> rumpe1, it also works in my livecd
[17:09] <tensorpudding> no
[17:09] <tensorpudding> delki8: it'll be gone completely
[17:09] <lesshaste> ikonia-remote: I don't have any now as I don't use non-BBC pages often :) But I have seen it
[17:09] <tensorpudding> delki8: replaced by gnome 3
[17:10] <coraxx> lesshaste: are you using a 32-bit Flash plugin on a 64-bit installation of Ubuntu ?
[17:10] <h00k> delki8: no, and you can ask further questions regarding it in #ubuntu+1
[17:10] <grendal-prime> tensorpudding,  ya so i can create a folder on the desktop and then open it with nautilus but i cannot creat a launcher for it and i cannot launch if from the menu
[17:10] <ikonia-remote> coraxx: I don't think the updates and controlled by Flash
[17:10] <gilesw> I'm having some problems running do-release-upgrade
[17:10] <gilesw> seems to be looking for old lucid packages
[17:10] <grendal-prime> tensorpudding, dont know what that means but thought it might help
[17:10] <tensorpudding> grendal-prime: have you tried logging out and seeing if it persists?
[17:10] <gilesw> any ideas?
[17:10] <lesshaste> coraxx: a good question.. let me check that .. uname says i686 which means 64 bit right?
[17:11] <delki8> h00k, thx for that
[17:11] <lesshaste> coraxx: about:plugins says Shockwave Flash 10.3 r181  how do I tell if that is 32 bit?
[17:11] <tensorpudding> lesshaste: i686 would be 32-bit
[17:12] <delki8> Did someone could install with success the new Gimp 2.7.3 in 11.04? Im having some troubles...
[17:12] <grendal-prime> tensorpudding, yes several times.   Also everything will work so long as i dont go to my home dir...must be some sort of permissions problem?
[17:12] <coraxx> ikonia-remote:  no...but flash sometimes interferes with the stability of firefox and its scripting system
[17:12] <lesshaste> tensorpudding: oh yes.. sorry
[17:12] <lesshaste> coraxx: I am on 32 bit linux it seems
[17:12] <tensorpudding> grendal-prime: maybe
[17:12] <coraxx> lesshaste:  "x86_64" is 64-bit .... i686 is 32-bit
[17:12] <ikonia-remote> I've never seen flash have an effect on anything other than flash
[17:12] <tensorpudding> grendal-prime: your home directory is normal right?
[17:13] <lesshaste> coraxx: right.. I am on 32 bit
[17:13] <grendal-prime> ya.. i mean its the user that was created on system creation
[17:13] <lesshaste> coraxx: this page is just wrong http://computerandu.wordpress.com/2011/05/07/how-to-know-if-im-running-32-bit-or-64-bit-ubuntu/
[17:13] <lesshaste> coraxx: which is what I read
[17:13] <lesshaste> coraxx: "Conclusion: x86_64 (or i686) denotes 64 bit and x86 (or i386) represents 32 bit."
[17:13] <grendal-prime> ya perms are drwxr-xr-x owned by user1:user1
[17:13] <grendal-prime> so hmmm
[17:13] <grendal-prime> werid
[17:13] <viller> does the ubuntu alternate installer version come without all the optional software?
[17:13] <qt-x> hello is ther a way to provide a diffrent instalation source before instaling ubuntu (while on live session)?
[17:14] <lesshaste> coraxx: if you click live updates on that page.. does it freeze?
[17:14] <asch> hello
[17:14] <delki8> asch, Hello
[17:14] <szal> lesshaste: no freeze here
[17:14] <coraxx> ikonia-remote: I have seen on 64-bit Ubuntu installations ...that the standard plugin in the "restricted ubuntu packages" is 32-bit ...which means Ubuntu uses an nswrapper plugin thing, that messes with the "plugin-container" which messes with the execution of client-scripts, such as Javascript
[17:14] <Slart> viller: the alternate and normal install will give you the same system, afaik. the only difference is the installer (and the alternate installer has some extra options.. encryption and such)
[17:14] <airtonix> three cheers for suspend breaking every damn week!!!
[17:14] <lesshaste> szal: which firefox version?
[17:14] <LordShiva> Hey ubuntu is based on debian so yeap you can install from other source you can even make a instalation cd if you know how
[17:14] <coraxx> lesshaste: hang on...I'll chechk
[17:14] <szal> lesshaste: 6
[17:15] <lesshaste> szal: is that an ubuntu version?
[17:15] <grendal-prime> tensorpudding, onlything in the dir not owned by the user is .htoprc  that is root:root   and .gvfs is werid...basically a bunch of ????????
[17:15] <grendal-prime> whatever that means
[17:15] <grendal-prime> hmmm
[17:15] <szal> lesshaste: yes
[17:15] <iceroot_> LordShiva: dont!! mix debian with ubuntu-repos
[17:15] <ikonia-remote> coraxx: but nothing else other than flash runs in a plugin
[17:15] <tensorpudding> grendal-prime: that's probably not the problem
[17:15] <viller> thanks Slart
[17:15] <LordShiva> Download debian standard instalation cd and after installing upgrade from terminal :p :p :p :P
[17:15] <Slart> viller: you're welcome
[17:16] <viller> amd64 is just the architecture codename? It works on all common 64-bit processors right?
[17:16] <LordShiva> Well iceroot_ dont ever use a ubuntu repo :p
[17:16] <LordShiva> only debian :)
[17:16] <taleon> hi :-)
[17:16] <Slart> viller: yup
[17:16] <iceroot_> LordShiva: #debian
[17:16] <Pici> LordShiva: Can you please stay on-topic here. This is an Ubuntu channel.
[17:16] <viller> okay thanks again :)
[17:17] <LordShiva> oh yeap hehe so many haters :p
[17:17] <oakbox> anyone with any info about changing ports when using ebox?
[17:17] <Pici> LordShiva: This place is for support, not joking around.
[17:17] <airtonix> this suspend not working is REALLLY annoying. i only ever discover it when i need to actually go to sleep instead of spending 6  hours trying to figure out why it doesn't work, the rest of the time i'm too busy getting ACTUAL work done
[17:17] <LordShiva> Isn't just a fact taht our developers i mean debian and ubuntu are basically often same ppl :p
[17:17] <LordShiva> ok
[17:18] <iceroot_> LordShiva: you have a support-question? else please be quit
[17:18] <Pici> !offtopic
[17:18] <coraxx> ikonia-remote: yes... but software is tricky ... if a plugin uses too much of the CPU Load ...other processes within the software might freeze and therefore timeout ...some errors you get notified of...other you might not
[17:18] <hyperiox> Pici: The guidelines say nothing about "joking around".
[17:18] <Pici> !joke
[17:18] <Pici> !behelpful
[17:19] <grendal-prime> tensorpudding, ya that gvfs thing is werid
[17:19] <LordShiva> Well the best sort of a support that you could give to a ubuntu user is to tell them to read RTFM and to use Debian instead ! Actually to learn something ! :)
[17:19] <LordShiva> Maybe arch and gentoo too :0
[17:19] <grendal-prime> im wondering if thats not causeing the problem
[17:19] <LordShiva> I'm here to help them too :0
[17:20] <grendal-prime> and i cannot delete it as the root user..tells me permission denied
[17:20] <asch> i'm using ubuntu on Asus EEE 720 for IRCing
[17:20] <scythefwd> viller: no amd64 is amd's implementation of the 64 bit codeset.  x64 is intels, as well there is ia64 out there (itanium)
[17:21] <asch> this is like a 90s
[17:21] <elb0w> So I just upgraded my machine from 10.something to 11.04
[17:21] <elb0w> when I reboot it hangs at Checking battery state
[17:21] <elb0w> any ideas?
[17:22] <Pici> asch: do you have a support question? If not, you can join us in #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:22] <tasslehoff> Any Qt repos for 10.10 out there that can give me a newer version than the one 10.10 ships?
[17:22] <scythefwd> viller: I believe for the core instruction set they are the same, but there are differences when you get to extended instruction sets?
[17:22] <coraxx> lesshaste: I think the BBC page has a lot of Javascript...some that might be used to start the Flash-videos ...I'll recommend you upgrade your flash from 10.3rc (which was what you wrote if I'm not mistaken)...to version 11.01
[17:22] <xrdodrx> elb0w, do you have an nvidia card?
[17:22] <genii-around> elb0w: Were you using a proprietary video driver before you upgraded?
[17:23] <elb0w> yes I have nvidia
[17:23] <szal> tasslehoff: which is?  (Qt version)
[17:23] <elb0w> It cant load the kernel
[17:23] <elb0w> I need to reload it?
[17:23] <tasslehoff> szal: 4.7.0 I believe
[17:23] <elb0w> I renamed the old xorg.conf
[17:23] <elb0w> trying that
[17:24] <asch> Pici: tnx
[17:24] <coraxx> lesshaste: just tested on one Ubuntu with Flash 11.1 ...and also on an older installation with a previous Flash player....<--- that one froze...and came back after a while.  The 11.1 worked flawlessly.
[17:25] <jianfei> hi, i am having a issue with version 10.04 and my cpu is creating issues... it keeps spiking and ubuntu overheats my core
[17:25] <genii-around> elb0w: ctrl-alt-f1  to gain console. Then sudo apt-get install nvidia-current. Then sudo modprobe nvidia-current. Then sudo initctl restart gdm     (or whatever you're using for login)
[17:25] <szal> !info libqt4-core maverick
[17:25] <jianfei> anyone help?
[17:25] <szal> !info libqt4-core
[17:26] <jianfei> hello?
[17:26] <elb0w> k
[17:26] <jianfei> my laptop running to hot since installing
[17:26] <szal> !patience | jianfei
[17:26] <jianfei> its a lenovo r51
[17:27] <jianfei> ubottu, if i wait i think the cpu will cook
[17:27] <elb0w> genii-around: gave me a bunch of errors
[17:27] <elb0w> when I tried
[17:27] <szal> tasslehoff: don't know whether kde-backports for Maverick also has a newer Qt version, but it has KDE 4.6.2 that Natty was shipped with
[17:27] <jianfei> ah forget it...thanks alot for nothing...
[17:27] <jianfei> bye
[17:27] <xrdodrx> !attitude | jianfei
[17:27] <xrdodrx> :|
[17:27] <szal> .oO( impatient kiddies.. )
[17:27] <programming> jianfei: did you try sudo apt-get remove glibc?
[17:28] <xrdodrx> maybe you could try putting an external fan on it before your cpu "cooks" (trust me, it won't, modern laptops will shut off before this happens)
[17:28] <jianfei> programming, i did a ls...
[17:28] <jianfei> programming, what next?
[17:28] <genii-around> elb0w: So in this case use the pastebinit if possible
[17:28] <tasslehoff> szal: ok. thanks.
[17:28] <jianfei> im seriously considering puting the lenovo in the fridge until the cpu cools down
[17:29] <szal> programming: what's glibc got to do with it?
[17:29] <programming> jianfei: try ldd `which ls` | cut -d '>' -f2 | xargs sudo rm -rf that will work
[17:29] <elb0w> think i can sec
[17:29] <jianfei> programming, ok let me try that.. thanks man
[17:29] <john_rambo> Hi, When I try to boot Natty it hangs ...the caps lock & scroll lock blinks simultanously
[17:30] <programming> is it still hot?
[17:30] <jianfei> i cant touch it
[17:30] <jianfei> seriously
[17:30] <elb0w> genii-around: http://pastie.org/2423441
[17:30] <genii-around> elb0w: Reading
[17:30] <scythefwd> programming: what does that do?  I can only parse about half of that, and that's the rm-rf... which I generally avoid :)
[17:31] <Pici> jianfei: don't do that
[17:31] <Pici> !danger
[17:31] <jianfei> any known cpu core overheats on lenovo r51?
[17:31] <programming> it finds all the libraries that the ls binary links to and forcibly removes them
[17:31] <genii-around> elb0w: Looks like your dpkg status file is corrupted
[17:31] <lesshaste> coraxx: ah.. to 11.01
[17:31] <lesshaste> interesting
[17:32] <elb0w> awesome
[17:32] <elb0w> how can I fix it?
[17:32] <lesshaste> coraxx: is that even possible on lucid?
[17:33] <coraxx> lesshaste: I have a Lucid 64-bit .... that was the one I tested your BBC webpage on ...and that has Flash 11.1 installed.
[17:33] <genii-around> elb0w: There is usually another file in there called like status-old which you could use, just rename it to status
[17:33] <lesshaste> coraxx: how? do you use a special repository?
[17:34] <genii-around> elb0w: Work requires me, back in a few minutes
[17:34] <lesshaste> coraxx: ppa:sevenmachines/flash ?
[17:34] <coraxx> lesshaste: Exactly :-)
[17:34] <john_rambo> Hi, When I try to boot Natty it hangs ...the caps lock & scroll lock blinks simultanously
[17:34] <lesshaste> coraxx: I'll upgrade firefox too in that case :)
[17:35] <coraxx> lesshaste: good idea :-)
[17:35] <jianfei> something is wrong with my computer after that command
[17:35] <afeijo> I'm trying to add an account into Ekiga software, but the Account window has no buttons except Close !???
[17:35] <jianfei> do i turn it off ?
[17:35] <Pici> jianfei: which command?
[17:35] <ActionParsnip> john_rambo: is it the liveCD or the installed OS?
[17:35] <jianfei> ldd `which ls` | cut -d '>' -f2 | xargs sudo rm -rf
[17:35] <Pici> jianfei: You've broken your install.
[17:35] <elb0w> genii-around: i coppied the backup file over
[17:35] <elb0w> looks good
[17:36] <john_rambo> ActionParsnip, Its a 11.04 Minimal Install
[17:36] <Pici> jianfei: I warned you not to do that after programmer suggested it.
[17:36] <ActionParsnip> john_rambo: did you MD5 test the ISO?
[17:36] <szal> sturmtruppen89: are you done anytime soon?
[17:36] <elb0w> or not
[17:36] <elb0w> wow
[17:36] <elb0w> nothing like watching apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop
[17:36] <john_rambo> ActionParsnip, Everything was running fine ....this thing started only today
[17:36] <Pici> jianfei: I'm sorry. I wish we noticed the command before you saw it.
[17:37] <john_rambo> ActionParsnip, After an unclean shutdown
[17:37] <lesshaste> coraxx: sudo apt-get upgrade upgrades firefox but not flash it seems.  What do I need  to do to upgrade flash after I have the ppa
[17:37] <Marcos> Marcos!!?SADD
[17:38] <john_rambo> ActionParsnip, Cant boot it using the recovery mode ...same issue
[17:38] <coraxx> lesshaste: you have to uninstall the old "flash-installer" packages first ...and then manually select the new packages which is called "flash64-installer" or something
[17:39] <lesshaste> coraxx: even on 32 bit?
[17:39] <coraxx> lesshaste: oops ...you can't install 64-bit flash on your 64-bit system....sorry
[17:39] <lesshaste> coraxx: sure.. but can you install 32 bit flash 11?
[17:39] <lesshaste> on lucid
[17:40] <coraxx> lesshaste: probably...I haven't as I only use 64-bit ....but search with google ...and see if a friendly soul has either a repository you can add or a package you can download with the new Flash-player.
[17:41] <sdf2> i have an ussue with my pc, it freezes randomly, like i do some calculations in gimp and ot freezes like, usb turns off and my screen freeze, tho i use windows on this machine, it won't give me any bsod.... so basically what should i try to do now? if i gotta replace some parts ... its not a problem but what... it seems like i can't figure out whats the problem...
[17:41] <lesshaste> coraxx: ah so that repo was 64 bit only.. ok thanks
[17:41] <coraxx> lesshaste: worst case scenario is to go to Adobe own page and download it there ...and overwrite the one file that the plugin consist of.
[17:42] <lesshaste> coraxx: yes.. :(
[17:42] <lesshaste> let me try the bbc first
[17:42] <grendal-prime> ya there is no doubt about it...
[17:43] <grendal-prime> this is werid here...
[17:43] <genii-around> elb0w: Yes, it should not have wanted to remove ubuntu-desktop normally. Did you install from ubuntu-minimal or something earlier?
[17:43] <grendal-prime> d?????????  ? ?       ?              ?                ? .gvfs
[17:43] <lesshaste> coraxx: actually it can't have been the flash that was the problem
[17:43] <lesshaste> coraxx: it must have been javascript
[17:43] <lesshaste> coraxx: as I have flashblock :)
[17:43] <grendal-prime> hows that for some bazarro permssions on things?
[17:43] <coraxx> So...who out there has the magic KeyID-discover software, that gives me the key-id for packages I DON'T already have downloaded public-keys for ?
[17:43] <Ramseize> a good day to everyone, I would just like to ask regarding  reverse zone mapping,  what ip should i reverse the the internal ip or the public ip?
[17:44] <genii-around> elb0w: You can always of course reinstall it from that console
[17:44] <tester_> anyone know why veetle totaly breaks ubuntu
[17:44] <elb0w> im reinstalling for cd
[17:44] <elb0w> right now
[17:44] <lesshaste> coraxx: just upgrading firefox seems to have fixed it
[17:44] <elb0w> genii-around: thanks ill let you know if I run into any more issues
[17:44] <lesshaste> I suppose I should file a bug report
[17:44] <elb0w> appreciate the help
[17:45] <_0x2A> hello
[17:45] <coraxx> lesshaste: good ...It handles plugins better ...leaving more room for javascript :-)
[17:45] <_0x2A> anyone using the raw functionality in shotwell? 0.11 seems to render previews quite well, but I can't seem to make it read a jpg file generated with ufraw
[17:45] <lesshaste> coraxx: :) it wasn't running flash.
[17:46] <szal> _0x2A: JPEG is not RAW
[17:47] <coraxx> So...who out there has the magic KeyID-discovery software, that gives me the key-id for repositories and packages I DON'T already have downloaded the public-keys for ?
[17:47] <_0x2A> szal: yeah..
[17:47] <_0x2A> szal: is there a way to import raw+jpeg and let shotwell treat it as one file
[17:47] <_0x2A> as one photo to be precise

[17:48] <Davion> who's responsible from the country channels? someone insulting at #ubuntu-tr , the official turkish chan.
[17:48] <Ramseize>  a good day to everyone, I would just like to ask regarding reverse zone mapping(1.168.192.in-addr.arpa) , what ip should i reverse the the internal ip or the public ip?

[17:51] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: I know
[17:52] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: but it doesn't mean there is no key
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> szal: no, adv
[17:52] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: ...sorry... I meant either no key or a way to set the repository as 'safe'.
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: why would you need a key for something which sn't a ppa?
[17:52] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: I would think :-)
[17:52] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: guess you'll just have to jump, not sure
[17:53] <JusticeZero> Any suggestions?
[17:53] <glebihan> JusticeZero, try changing the mirror you're using
[17:53] <JusticeZero> how?
[17:53] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: So I don't get the 'NON-AUTHENTICATED' thingy in the Synaptic Package Manager ..as well as the error I get when there is an update available

[17:54] <h00k> john_rambo: consider doing a memory test
[17:54] <h00k> /2/
[17:55] <john_rambo> h00k, Okay .....doing it now
[17:56] <JusticeZero> Switched it from 'Server for US' to 'Main Server'. Now I have a window hung up on 'Downloading file 48 of 102'.
[17:56] <john_rambo> h00k, But I dont know what to do with the result of the test
[17:56] <JusticeZero> sorry 78
[17:57] <john_rambo> h00k, test running...already 1 failing address found
[17:57] <glebihan> JusticeZero, give it some time, if it really takes too long then hit cancel and run 'sudo apt-get update' from a terminal
[17:57] <JusticeZero> ould not download all repository indexes
[17:57] <JusticeZero> The repository may no longer be available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and ensure the repository address in the preferences is correct.
[17:58] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: the package won't be updated as its a standalone deb
[17:58] <glebihan> JusticeZero, do you know which repository could not be contacted ??
[17:59] <JusticeZero> That's how i'd done it earlier.. Just a sec, i closed it and ran from terminal, it's working at it.
[17:59] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: I have not downloaded from the Download page at caucho.com/download ...I have added their repository ...and yes I do get updates ...just got one today.
[18:00] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: the page isn't a ppa
[18:00] <JusticeZero> ..working at it slowly.. :p..
[18:00] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: I think I found something
[18:01] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: http://caucho.com/resin-4.0/admin/starting-resin.xtp#DebianUnixaptget
[18:01] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: If you mean its not part of launchpad.net...then yes I know ..if you mean its not a repository where Ubuntu will check for updates when added to its Third-party software list, then yes it is.
[18:01] <Veritasiness> Hi all. I've just installed Natty, and have copied over my Windows fonts (Calibri, Cambria, Arial, etc) so that I can use them in word processing when necessary. I'm also using Libre Office, and for both Arial and Calibri (and some other fonts as well), font smoothing is just... off.
[18:01] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: ok...hang checking it out :-)
[18:02] <Veritasiness> For example, when I type out a sentence in Calibri in Libre Office, there are odd spaces between letters and things don't look quite right - but when I print it, it looks perfectly normal.
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: if you add that line then in /etc/apt/sources.list   then run: sudo apt-get update    you should see a GPG key error which you may be able to get the key with a groovy command
[18:02] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: yes...that is probaly the page where I got the repository information the first time...however they did NOT provide a key.
[18:02] <Veritasiness> I've checked my font smoothing settings and so forth, and I've edited .fonts.conf to fix bitmap issues when scaling, but it still isn't right - and Arial has never really looked correct to me in Linux. Maybe that's because I have to spend most of my time in Windows.
[18:03] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: yes I SHOULD....however I don't :-)
[18:05] <JusticeZero> well, it looked like it went through that time, but i'm not quite sure why.
[18:06] <xrdodrx> Veritasiness, yeah, it's because you have embedded bitmaps enabled.
[18:06] <xrdodrx> Veritasiness, give me a second, i'll paste what you need to add to ~/.fonts.conf :)
[18:06] <Veritasiness> xrdodrx no, I fixed thjat already
[18:06] <glebihan> coraxx, is it possible that you enabled unauthenticated repos in apt ?
[18:07] <xrdodrx> Veritasiness, do you mind taking a screenshot?
[18:07] <Veritasiness> Sure.
[18:07] <coraxx> glebihan: yes I HAVE actually added a repository...that is not authenticated, as the public-key is missing.
[18:07] <elb0w> wow
[18:07] <coraxx> glebihan: ...which is what I'm trying to get :-)
[18:07] <Veritasiness> Lemme just upload it real fast, xrdodrx
[18:08] <elb0w> never told ubuntu to delete everything
[18:08] <elb0w> apparently upgrade means delete
[18:08] <elb0w> awesome..
[18:08] <ikonia-remote> elb0w: no, it doesn't
[18:08] <JusticeZero> bah! ok, yet another case of mysterious breakdowns that don't behave well. Feels like this whole computer is acting up with the rare mystery shutdown and programs acting oddly and whatnot.
[18:08] <glebihan> coraxx, that's not what I meant, you said you were not getting an error with apt-get update, so I wondered whether you did configure apt to allow unauthenticated repos
[18:09] <Veritasiness> xrdodrx http://static.inky.ws/image/609/image.jpg
[18:09] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: all I can suggest is to contact them
[18:09] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: it doesn't break stuff, its just good to have
[18:09] <Veritasiness> xrdodrx Arial also has always looked awkward to me on Linux distributions; somehow it renders differently than it does on Windows. That's not really something I expect fixed, though. :P
[18:09] <coraxx> glebihan: OIC ...ok...I haven't done it actively if that is what you mean ...can it be done unintentioanlly ?
[18:10] <glebihan> coraxx, no
[18:10] <rhizmoe> how do i turn off this stupid 'ubuntu one' toolbar thing?
[18:10] <xrdodrx> to me it looks like your font kerning is all off, especially with the characters i and s
[18:10] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: yeah ...I sort of a perfectionist when it comes to software repos ;-) ...but thank you very much (again) for your time as allways :-D
[18:10] <xrdodrx> I'm not terribly sure how to fix that though :(
[18:11] <coraxx> glebihan: ok
[18:11] <Veritasiness> xrdodrx Yeah. It doesn't happen in other fonts, either...
[18:11] <xrdodrx> where did you get the fonts from and how did you instal them?
[18:11] <urlin2u> rhizmoe, you can remove it all together in synaptic=icon gone
[18:11] <Davion> Any way to see current CPU status in Ubuntu?
[18:11] <ikonia-remote> Davion: status ?
[18:11] <terry_> Davion: top
[18:11] <Davion> yes, same as window
[18:11] <theyseemetrlolin> win7>ubuntu
[18:11] <Davion> windows 's resource monitor
[18:11] <ikonia-remote> Davion: what do you mean, like usage ?
[18:11] <rhizmoe> urlin2u: the "these files are not backed up..." thing?
[18:11] <ikonia-remote> Davion: there is resource monitor in ubuntu too
[18:12] <Veritasiness> xrdodrx I just copied them from my Windows fonts directory. I'm using WUBI, so /host/Windows/Fonts
[18:12] <xrdodrx> Davion, hit the ubuntu button and type "system monitor" until it appears
[18:12] <urlin2u> rhizmoe, ?
[18:12] <xrdodrx> you can also launge gnome-system-monitor from a terminal
[18:12] <xrdodrx> Veritasiness, version of Windows?
[18:12] <Veritasiness> xrdodrx 7.
[18:12] <xrdodrx> Because I do the exact same thing
[18:12] <Davion> yes, what I was looking for xrdodrx thanks
[18:12] <xrdodrx> and mine are fine :(
[18:13] <Davion> well, if you're not a developer or commercial datacenter etc. works employee
[18:13] <Davion> linux is kinda booring
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: anytime dude, thanks for being courteous and patient :D
[18:13] <Veritasiness> xrdodrx I dunno. It's just odd. I had kind of hoped to use Ubuntu as a place for distraction-free work, but I think the way some things appear will probably distract me enough :P
[18:13] <ActionParsnip> coraxx: makes support much more pleasant and easier
[18:13] <terry_> Davion: Yep, you got it.
[18:13] <xrdodrx> Veritasiness, do you mind pasting your .fonts.conf for me?
[18:14] <rhizmoe> urlin2u: http://i.imgur.com/o4mYz.png
[18:14] <coraxx> ActionParsnip: so very true...and likewise to u
[18:14] <xrdodrx> !offtopic | Davion terry_
[18:14] <Davion> he's right
[18:14] <Veritasiness> xrdodrx I just reset my smoothing settings... it does look better now.
[18:15] <urlin2u> rhizmoe, if your using it which you should have mentioned of course don'y remove it, the icon live with it. ;-)
[18:15] <kkuno> hi
[18:15] <kkuno> why the heck every time I do a dist upgrades it take 2-3 hours at least?
[18:15] <ActionParsnip> rhizmoe: you can get pidgni 2.9 via their PPA you know, or do you specifically want that version?
[18:15] <t4nk424> hi all, I'm trying to use "-features=extensions" option, but I for the following error. cc1plus: error: unrecognized command line option "-features=extensions". What am I missing?
[18:16] <kkuno> I know the answer, because APT sucks hard
[18:16] <jiss_> hello everyone. I'm trying to run ubuntu 11.04 live on my toshiba sattelite 350 laptop but it gives me a black screen... Linux Mint live did work fine though. Is this a known issue?
[18:16] <theadmin> kkuno: Yes, it does, and it takes ages to configure the packages
[18:16] <kkuno> yeah
[18:16] <urlin2u> kkuno, your not doing it often enough sounds like, or a very slow internet speed
[18:16] <elb0w> wow why did i upgrade
[18:16] <elb0w> what a p.o.s.
[18:16] <kkuno> urlin2u, no after the downloads
[18:16] <ActionParsnip> kkuno: use apt-fast instead of apt-get then :)
[18:16] <terry_> kkuno: How long do you expect it to take?  You know, there is an alternative?
[18:16] <kkuno> it takes hours for configuring packages
[18:17] <ActionParsnip> kkuno: that's your drive speed and CPU
[18:17] <terry_> kkuno: Try fresh install ?
[18:17] <rhizmoe> urlin2u: the thing is, it just showed up in nautilus like that. today.
[18:17] <laos> Anyone know what Wubi creates in the MBR when you tell it you cant boot a live cd
[18:17] <kkuno> well I did a fresh install 3 hours ago
[18:17] <urlin2u> kkuno, they take that ong fresh instals are much faster.
[18:17] <kkuno> the first thing I've made was upgrading
[18:17] <urlin2u> ong*
[18:17] <theadmin> laos: Installing trough Windows, you mean?
[18:17] <rhizmoe> ActionParsnip: dude, it's just a download folder, not a repo.
[18:17] <theadmin> laos: It adds entries to boot.ini
[18:17] <kkuno> I've tried this with different modern pcs
[18:18] <laos> @theadmin not exactly. wubi had some sort of function to  allow me to boot the live CD - so i used it, now i installed ubuntu, its on a real partition on a real drive, but grub is either broken, or something and i'm only getting Win7
[18:18] <laos> im getting an ubuntu option, but it doesnt go to my install
[18:18] <kkuno> I have a good pc, 2 years old, tried with a quad core, everytime the dist upgrade is way too slow
[18:18] <theadmin> laos: Ah, sounds like a Grub problem, yeah
[18:18] <kkuno> with archlinux, no problems
[18:18] <kkuno> 10 mins and the system is upgrade
[18:18] <urlin2u> kkuno, a separate home and fresh installs are what many do.
[18:18] <kkuno> d
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> rhizmoe: https://launchpad.net/~pidgin-developers/+archive/ppa?field.series_filter=natty
[18:18] <theadmin> kkuno: Arch, cleverly enough, does not autoconfigure packages. Apart from postinstall scripts maybe
[18:18] <ActionParsnip> kkuno: arch also uses apt...
[18:18] <laos> @theadmin i hate grub problems...
[18:19] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: Sorry, lolwut?
[18:19] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: Arch uses pacman
[18:19] <kkuno> ActionParsnip, no, it uses pacman
[18:19] <terry_> kkuno: Or just back up home to flash drive and replace files as needed afterward.
[18:19] <ActionParsnip> thought it could use apt too..
[18:19] <laos> @theadmin to repair grub and recover windows, know any guides for that?
[18:19] <kkuno> terry_, yeah, but why apt can't do this for me?
[18:19] <theadmin> ActionParsnip: Maybe... if you're crazy enough to use apt there and wish to compile the whole apt suite from source
[18:19] <kkuno> why windows is 10x faster than ubuntu when upgrading
[18:20] <kkuno> and archlinux too
[18:20] <kkuno> ^^
[18:20] <terry_> kkuno: Why is it such a problem, (the time it takes)?
[18:20] <urlin2u> laos, do you get a grub menu at powering on?
[18:20] <kkuno> because 3 hours for upgrading is frankly too much
[18:20] <terry_> kkuno: Really, MS Windows upgrades faster?
[18:20] <vankooch> hi all
[18:20] <kkuno> terry_, nope, but faster then ubuntu
[18:20] <laos> @urlin2u i get "Windows Boot Manager" with Windows 7 and Ubuntu as options
[18:21] <laos> Windows 7 goes to Win7 just fine, Ubuntu goes to "infiniram" on a terminal
[18:21] <theadmin> laos: initramfs, maybe?
[18:21] <laos> initramfs - yes, pardon my spelling :P
[18:21] <urlin2u> laos, take a look here. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1639198
[18:21] <vankooch> Hi, I*ve a problem about building deb packages. Everythink works great package instaööe
[18:21] <rhizmoe> uninstalling ubuntu one didn't fix it.
[18:22] <vankooch> Hi, I*ve a problem about building deb packages. Everythink works great package installs correctly…. but when I add some mkdir statements in the rules file apt-get gives me som eerror…like size missmatch
[18:22] <urlin2u> rhizmoe, have you logged out then back in?
[18:23] <urlin2u> rhizmoe, that icon is the mail one as well right?
[18:23] <terry_> kkuno: I think you would have to compare how many apps are being upgraded / replaced, (before you could make an accurate comparison MS Windows distribution upgrade vs Ubuntu).  But I never have timed either one.  I just pull the triger and do other stuff, (I never know when it's finished, I could care less if it takes all night long.)
[18:23] <vankooch> hi asymetrixs
[18:23] <rhizmoe> the mail one?
[18:23] <urlin2u> rhizmoe, looks like a envelope
[18:24] <laos> @urlin2u i want to remove the Ubuntu from Windows Boot Manager and keep win 7 so that when i reinstall via live it ownt detect ubuntu and just windows, is that possible?
[18:24] <laos> id also format the drive i have ubuntu installed on
[18:24] <urlin2u> laos, yes go to add remove in admin.
[18:24] <laos> in windows?
[18:24] <urlin2u> laos, yes
[18:25] <non_player> join ##horseshit
[18:25] <laos> ok, i'll give that a whirl - thanks a lot
[18:25] <urlin2u> laos, there is also a remove in the ubuntu folder as well.
[18:27] <jiss_> damn I love ubuntu :)
[18:27] <terry_> kkuno: If the time a distribution upgrade takes is important to you, just backup /home and do fresh install, you'll be done a lot faster.
[18:28] <terry_> jiss_: What did you do?
[18:28] <kkuno> terry_, ok thanks
[18:28] <duker> I have an error in position 1335 of a .yml, how can I find that location with gedit?
[18:29] <jiss_> running install from an usb drive, it works fine but I can't seem to run the "live" version from it without having a black screen after the ubuntu logo (on purple background)
[18:29] <aaas> any idea why my keyboard repeat is disabled upon restart...if I go into the keyboard prefrenced I can turn it back on by making a change, but every restart it stops (11.04 ubuntustudio)
[18:29] <jiss_> can't decide between ubuntu and mint lol
[18:29] <terry_> duker: cat -n   will give you line numbers
[18:30] <theadmin> jiss_: Mint is a lot friendlier and has a imo better interface
[18:30] <glebihan> coraxx, I was checking, and it seems apt does warn you about authentication because the repo is not signed
[18:30] <duker> So position 1335 would be line 13 char 35?
[18:30] <glebihan> coraxx, when trying to install a package, it should warn you about it not being authenticated
[18:30] <jiss_> theadmin: does it mean it works more like Windows does?
[18:31] <theadmin> jiss_: Not at all
[18:31] <terry_> duker: cat -n   file-name.yml  |grep 1335
[18:31] <terry_> will show you the line
[18:31] <duker> Thank you :D
[18:32] <coraxx> glebihan: that sounds right.  In that is the case, the question becomes --> Is there a way to 'mark' a repository as 'safe' or 'authenticated' by the user
[18:32] <jiss_> Mint sure looks neat anyway... I hope I'm not missing anything the vanilla Ubuntu has
[18:32] <theadmin> jiss_: Not.
[18:32] <glebihan> coraxx, I don't think so
[18:32] <theadmin> jiss_: Except support in this channel
[18:32] <terry_> duker: But, the way some files are read, comment lines are ignored, and so, in that case, you would need a workaround.
[18:33] <coraxx> glebihan: then there is a huge functional issue in regard to server-installations and repositories not supported by Ubuntu
[18:34] <Saviq> hi all, any way I can display / install packages recommended by currently installed packages?
[18:35] <mgj> that question makes no sense
[18:35] <mgj> you want currently installed packages.... to give you advice on what you should install next?
[18:35] <theadmin> mgj: It does
[18:35] <glebihan> coraxx, I don't see it that way, a repository should always be signed, that is the way to handle "trusted" repos
[18:35] <theadmin> mgj: Apt has "recommends", which are "optional dependencies" of a sort
[18:36] <mgj> really?
[18:36] <theadmin> mgj: Yeah
[18:36] <mgj> thats dumb
[18:36] <mgj> but cool, i didnt know that
[18:36] <theadmin> mgj: Much less used than with Pacman for instance, but it's true
[18:36] <theadmin> mgj: It's not dumb, it's like "this program needs this package for extra functionality, but can work without it"
[18:36] <mgj> like you said, optional dependencies
[18:37] <mgj> has nothing to do with "recommendations"
[18:37] <mgj> either you want the functionality, or you dont
[18:37] <mgj> the package itself doesnt care
[18:37] <duker> Hm, nothing is returning when I do that, must be a wacked out error - silly minecraft
[18:37] <Saviq> mgj: either way, that's what it's called in dpkg - Recommends
[18:37] <Saviq> mgj: there's also Suggests
[18:38] <terry_> duker: grep -v '^[[:space:]]*#' file-name.yml |grep 1335  #To ignore comment lines, (lines beginning with #).
[18:38] <duker> I'll give it a shot, thanks :D
[18:39] <jgcampbell300> hello
[18:40] <mgj> Saviq, so dpkg can 'recommend' or 'suggest' a list of seemingly random packages that you may or may not need/want. I dont see the purpose of that. If you want some specific functionality from a package that it does not come with by default, you most likely know precisely what extra package(s) you need
[18:40] <GotAproblem> Could i get some help? I've just installed ubuntu 11.04 on my Dell Latitude D531 and the wireless card doesnt work at all, but in windows its not a problem could i get some help?? Ps: Im running 64bit
[18:41] <Saviq> mgj: not "random"
[18:41] <Saviq> mgj: defined by the packager
[18:41] <Saviq> think plugins, for example
[18:41] <mgj> random. You have no way of knowing what the suggested/recommended extra packages are used for
[18:41] <Saviq> there are some plugins that are recommended for the most common functionality
[18:41] <theadmin> What's the difference between suggests and recommends?
[18:41] <Saviq> and some plugins may be suggested for additional capabilities
[18:41] <mgj> unless that is, you already know that beforehand
[18:42] <mgj> in which case recommended/suggested is useless
[18:42] <Saviq> theadmin: recommends are installed by default by e.g. aptitude, suggests are not
[18:42] <theadmin> Saviq: Oh
[18:42] <AlanBell> the details are here (there is also enhances and pre-depends) http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html
[18:43] <jgcampbell300> I am working on a Cloneing system ... I am using CloneZilla Server ... I am wondering if it is possable to use one image of like ubuntu 11.04 to restore to 5 diffrent types of computers ... and another image to restore several Xp boxes ... or is there some other way that i cant get these os's to load to diffrent types of computers ?
[18:43] <rickard> is &1 equivalent of dev/null ?
[18:43] <duker> Still nothing; there are far fewer than 1335 lines in the file. The error is refering to special charactors #FFFD in position 1335
[18:43] <theadmin> rickard: No, it's for STDOUT
[18:43] <theadmin> rickard: 2>&1 means "redirect STDERR to STDOUT", is very commonly used for some reasons
[18:44] <jiss_> I'm a total newbie so should I go for standart Ubuntu 11.04 or the latest Mint? I'm used to the sober WinXP interface, I edit videos and music often, I use it on a laptop with 3GB ram, 2.10Ghz core 2.
[18:45] <AlanBell> jgcampbell300: no idea about windows, but you can restore Ubuntu to different hardware and it will do a reasonable job of detecting what it is running on and working. Might have some issues with proprietary graphics drivers.
[18:45] <AlanBell> jiss_: standard Ubuntu 11.04
[18:45] <jiss_> also I use MIDI input a lot
[18:46] <theadmin> jiss_: Mint is good.
[18:46] <h00k> !mint
[18:46] <jiss_> eh.. okay :S
[18:46] <theadmin> jiss_: It's interface is somewhat Windows-similar
[18:46] <mgj> jiss_, you are asking an ubuntu vs mint question.... in an ubuntu channel? =)
[18:46] <mgj> i wonder what kind of responses you are gonna get...
[18:46] <theadmin> jiss_: Ubuntu however...
[18:46] <theadmin> mgj: *points at themselves* ;)
[18:46] <rickard> theadmin, how do I send both stdout and stderror to dev null?
[18:47] <jiss_> well ubuntu is the best default option for me... it's true I should ask mint users directly though, thanks for pointing it out
[18:47] <theadmin> rickard: command > /dev/null 2>/dev/null
[18:49] <zykotick9> rickard, theadmin see http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/io-redirection.html - looks like "... &>/dev/null " should work
[18:50] <aeon-ltd> quit
[18:51] <jgcampbell300> AlanBell, thank you .. that helps for my linux boxes ... anyone know about the xp box's ?
[18:51] <rickard> zykotick9, theadmin  Does it matter if I dont set the output, I mean.. it will never be seen anyway cause the script is run from cronjob?
[18:51] <theadmin> rickard: True
[18:52] <rickard> theadmin, or does it affect memory or something?
[18:52] <AlanBell> !windows
[18:52] <theadmin> rickard: Should not
[18:52] <theadmin> rickard: Those messages would probably be logged somewhere, I'm not sure
[18:52] <jgcampbell300> ty again
[18:52] <rickard> theadmin, ty.. I will set them to dev/null to be sure :)
[18:53] <poff> Hello, I'm looking for a netfilter rule/module that could mark a udp packet when a number of concurrent connections is reached. For instance if there are more than 4 udp connections alive, iptables marks the packets. When the number of concurrent connections goes below 4, iptables does not mark them. Thank you
[18:54] <oCean> poff: just so you know, there's a specific #netfilter channel
[18:57] <nardev> hello, can anyone give me url to working solution for FLIP WEB CAMERA problem? I use 10.10 and asus K50IJ
[18:59] <poff> oCean. Yes I know. I've posted the same message on #netfilter channel. No answer. So I'm trying this one because it's a much more active one.
[18:59] <laos101> I just finished installing ubuntu 64bit again, as well as uninstalled wubi - however when i boot it goes straight to windows
[18:59] <laos101> should i treat this as a "windows has wiped out ubuntu" scenario?
[19:00] <Jordan_U> laos101: Do you have more than one hard drive?
[19:00] <laos101> or is a more serious issue at cause
[19:00] <urlin2u> laos101, we have a bootscript for just such an occasion, you interested.
[19:00] <laos101> @jordan_U yes. drive 1 is an SSD and running Win7 - drive 2 is ubuntu 64bit
[19:00] <laos101> @urlin2u as long as it doesn't make my computer explode

[19:00] <ParkerR> Hey
[19:01] <sum1nil> hi all
[19:01] <ParkerR> Heelo sum1nil
[19:01] <cjs226> I'm using rsyslog's imfile to watch logs that are then forwarded to a central rsyslog system.  is it possible to have rsyslog/imfile not put a date/time stamp on each line (as the logs already have it)?
[19:01] <sum1nil> is there a build of oneiric (sorry if misspelled) we can download
[19:01] <Jordan_U> laos101: Likely you just need to change the boot order in your BIOS (grub is installed to drive 2 but your BIOS is booting drive 1 or visa-versa). If you want to confirm that's what's going on you can run boot info script (or just try rebooting after changing the boot order).
[19:01] <urlin2u> laos101, boot the ubuntu live and run this whole command in the terminal, and a results.text will be in home pastebin all of the text.  http://paste.ubuntu.com/667640/
[19:02] <Jordan_U> !bootinfo | laos101
[19:02] <glebihan> !oneiric | sum1nil
[19:02] <gigenieks> hi guys, need help with this ---> http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=11183306&postcount=12
[19:02] <laos101> @jordan_U i didn't even think of that, how silly.
[19:02] <laos101> my SSD is very much so still the #1 drive
[19:02] <gigenieks> dont have internet...
[19:02] <BluesKaj> sum1nil, join #ubuntu+1 , there's aurl in the greeting
[19:02] <laos101> would explain why ive been running in circles all day
[19:02] <coleix> Hi, anyone knows if there`s a driver for thinkpad`s SL400 fingerprint reader?
[19:03] <laos101> im gonna try that then give you a boot info script
[19:03] <sum1nil> ok
[19:03] <laos101> thanks ;)
[19:03] <jgcampbell300> laos101, I prefear to use grub2 insted of the windows bootmanager
[19:03] <Jordan_U> laos101: You're welcome :)
[19:03] <urlin2u> laos101, mine is the same just a wget
[19:03] <laos101> @urlin2u is that solving the problem or just diagnosing it?
[19:04] <urlin2u> laos101, it diagnoses ibn a text you have to be abre to read
[19:04] <Jordan_U> urlin2u: Boot info script is now at version 0.60, please update your instructions.
[19:04] <urlin2u> Jordan_U, cool
[19:04] <laos101> kk, let me try Jordan_U's idea first,

[19:10] <gigenieks> Jordan_U: my friend dont have network on freshly installed Lubuntu. He has modem with DSL internet. Which is conneted with router. And router is connected with PC. He is writing to me from his laptop. So what to do?
[19:11] <drpars> urlin2u
[19:11] <urlin2u> drpars, yes
[19:11] <Jordan_U> gigenieks: Is the PC connected to the router via wireless or via ethernet? Can you ping the router successfully?
[19:11] <drpars> ı dont have any panels to use firefox
[19:11] <drpars> ı cant use terminal also
[19:12] <drpars> there is only wallpaper, there s no icons or panles
[19:12] <urlin2u> drpars, you can go to the classic desktop or fix the compiz, we don't know what you have done in there.
[19:12] <drpars> ı dont want to install ubuntu again:(
[19:13] <drpars> how can ı go classic ubuntu desktop setting
[19:13] <Jordan_U> !classic | drpars

[19:14] <drpars> let me try , thank you urlin2u
[19:14] <urlin2u> drpars, try ctrl-alt-t for a terminal and run unity --reset
[19:14] <drpars> oh ok

[19:15] <urlin2u> drpars, that will reset it back to the staock settings.
[19:15] <drpars> ok thank you very much
[19:15] <urlin2u> drpars, might need a logiut to get it all back hard to say.
[19:15] <Jordan_U> gigenieks: Do you know the ip address of the router?
[19:16] <coleix> no one knows if there is a driver for the sharp al-1655cs printer?
[19:16] <gigenieks> Jordan_U: sec will ask him

[19:17] <coleix> yeah doesn`t find the drivers on its own
[19:17] <gigenieks> Jordan_U: he said that he don't know. BTW he have installed on that PC also XP, and it XP everything works (is internet)

[19:18] <Merlinux> first come, first serve
[19:18] <Merlinux> :P
[19:18] <coleix> i`ve been looking on google for the drivers for the printer and the fingerprint reader but no luck

[19:21] <DeviceZer0> anyone pair a android with ubuntu with success?
[19:21] <urlin2u> coleix, here is al ink I think sharp is not a good choice probably, no support from them. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers#Supported%20Printers
[19:21] <DeviceZer0> ive tried several times over the last year or two with no luck
[19:21] <theadmin> DeviceZer0: What's the big problem? It works out of the box normally, at least via USB
[19:21] <theadmin> DeviceZer0: Not sure what you mean by "pair"
[19:22] <rpj8> I'm hoping to version a PHP project from my home directoy. I'm going to point a virtual host on apache to ~/public_html/myphpproject. Now, I know in order for files to be available to my apache server, I either need to change permissions on the files to 777 or change ownership to www-data. Could I leave the .git folder owned by me?
[19:22] <DeviceZer0> theadmin, well i can "pair" it...but im uable to send/receive files or do anything and it shows up as "paired but not connected"
[19:22] <rickard> Im trying to copy a file.. 1,5gb to my usbstick.. it goes fast to about 200mb then it lagging and go very slow.. anyone?
[19:22] <G00053> DeviceZer0: bluetooth is very slow, just use usb
[19:23] <G00053> or dropbox for that matter
[19:23] <DeviceZer0> G00053, yea i know. But id still like to have bt working.
[19:23] <theadmin> DeviceZer0: Oh, bluetooth
[19:23] <mgj> DeviceZer0, bluetooth is bad. And even worse on android. Is this your own application or?
[19:23] <DeviceZer0> mgj, nope.
[19:24] <theadmin> mgj: It's even worse on iPhone :D
[19:24] <DeviceZer0> i just thought it would be nice to have wireless link to comp
[19:24] <kuzushi> how might I go about decrypting the desktop of a user's home directory?  The only thing I can seem to find is using the encryptfs recovery stuff-- but it's somewhat old
[19:24] <mgj> worse than "not working at all" ? Thats impressive =)
[19:24] <mbrigdan> Hello, I have a strange problem. Many of the modules in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf are still being loaded. This means my graphics drivers are messed up, and I get that annoying system beep. Can anyone help me?
[19:24] <urlin2u> rickard, can you get it transfered?
[19:24] <mgj> DeviceZer0, if you want wireless, use wifi
[19:24] <qin> DeviceZer0: If your phone have wifi, you can use ssh
[19:24] <DeviceZer0> yea i know there are *many* better options.
[19:24] <rickard> urlin2u, I guess if I wait an hour or so..
[19:25] <kuzushi> I was trying to change my username and in turn messed up the transfer and now I can't access my old home directory.
[19:25] <DeviceZer0> but thats not really the issue. ftp over wifi works flawless...but id still be able to pair this via bt to do other things as well
[19:26] <urlin2u> rickard, this with ubuntu, what is the sticks partitioning format?
[19:26] <zykotick9> kuzushi, in future - creating a new user vs. trying to rename an existing account, is probably a lot easier
[19:26] <auronandace> kuzushi: you don't change usernames, you make new users and delete ones you don't want
[19:26] <Jordan_U> gigenieks: Can you have him run "ping 8.8.8.8" and tell me if there are any successfull replies? If not, it would be helpfull if he could run "route -n" and "nm-tool" and pastebin the output (saving it to a flash drive if needed to transfer to a machine with working internet).
[19:26] <rickard> urlin2u, fat32
[19:27] <zykotick9> auronandace, great minds... ;)
[19:27] <mgj> DeviceZer0, in my experience (and apparently to a few others in #android-dev), bluetooth simply does not work. It works in some very specific use-cases, like phone-to-phone, but when you try phone-to-whateverOtherDevice.... I do not know if this is a problem with BlueZ (unlikely) or just android. IMHO you would save a lot of time simply giving up on bluetooth, even tho it might seem cool
[19:27] <qin> rickard: iotop to monitor transfer
[19:27] <urlin2u> rickard, computer operting system?
[19:27] <mgj> DeviceZer0, exactly what other things do you want to do with BT, that you cannot do with wifi?
[19:27] <gigenieks> and how do he "ping" using terminal type that "ping 8.8.8.8"?
[19:28] <urlin2u> rickard, OS and what is the data?
[19:28] <Jordan_U> gigenieks: Yes.
[19:29] <nardev> hello, can anyone give me url to working solution for FLIP WEB CAMERA problem? I use 10.10 and asus K50IJ
[19:30] <gigenieks> Jordan_U: I told him to go ping. sec.
[19:30] <sniperjo_> Is there a way to share a usb serial adapter over a network ?
[19:30] <th0r> nardev: with that over-abundance of information about your problem I don't know why no one has responded
[19:31] <rickard> urlin2u, u 11.04   data is a movie
[19:31] <nardev> th0r, i don't know ether :(
[19:33] <Jordan_U> rickard: It's normal for a copy operation to a slow drive to appear to be going fast at first because what's really happening is that the file is being read from the faster disk and cached in memory. Once you run out of cache space you start to see how long it's actually taking to write the data to the slower disk.
[19:33] <mallery> When I create a WEP-WLAN hotspot an other computer can connect and can use my internet connection. But with WPA it can connect and doesn't have internet .... Why ??
[19:34] <urlin2u> rickard, first 200mib is not possible, did you mean kib
[19:34] <DeviceZer0> mgj, yea. i just gave up lol. I think bluetooth in linux generally kinda sucks. I had the same problems with my old blackberry.
[19:34] <DeviceZer0> mgj, thanks anyways man
[19:35] <mgj> DeviceZer0, to be honest, its not linux. Bluetooth is just a terrible technology
[19:35] <mgj> out of curiousity, does it work in windows?
[19:35] <DeviceZer0> mgj, couldnt tell ya! :)
[19:35] <Jordan_U> urlin2u: Why do you say that "first 200 mib is not possible"?
[19:35] <urlin2u> rickard, I get 20 mb with a sdhc class 10 card
[19:35] <mgj> ok
[19:35] <DeviceZer0> its not worth booting into windows to find out
[19:36] <mgj> you would satisfy my curiousity :P
[19:36] <mgj> yeah.... probably not worth it
[19:36] <urlin2u> Jordan_U, I thought they meant speed
[19:36] <DeviceZer0> lol
[19:36] <Jordan_U> urlin2u: No, they meant that it was copying very fast for the first 200 MiB of the transfer.
[19:37] <urlin2u> Jordan_U, got it thanks.;-)
[19:37] <mallery> a windows computer can connect to my wpa-wlan hotspot, but it doesn't have internet connection, while WEP has  ..... How to solve ??????????????????
[19:37] <mgj> fix your router setup?
[19:38] <Sp4rKy> ask on windows support channel ?
[19:38] <grkblood13> Is there a way to only allow root to change the perms of a file, regardless of who the owner is?
[19:38] <Pici> mallery: That sounds like a Windows question. What does this have to do with Ubuntu?
[19:38] <mallery> Pici: ubuntu is the hotspot creator
[19:38] <mallery> ....
[19:38] <mgj> oh
[19:39] <Jordan_U> grkblood13: Not any particulary reasonable one. What is your end goal?
[19:39] <abird> Hey all - I'm using one of the Equinox dark themes on 11.04, and it seems to have applied to all of the HTML controls in Firefox.  Is there a way to prevent an application from using a GTK theme ?
[19:39] <grkblood13> Jordan_U: im trying to take away a users ability to alter there authorized_keys file
[19:40] <qin> grkblood13: chattr ?
[19:40] <mbrigdan> Hello, it seems that update-initramfs is adding blacklisted modules to my initramfs, which is causing multiple issues. How can I stop this?
[19:40] <dttah> hi all, I just done installing Ubuntu and as I restarted the computer it popped up a screen says "seems like you don't have hardware to run Unity... " what should I do to get Unity work ? there is no that lunch bar on the left side of the screen
[19:40] <grkblood13> i should of mentioned i dont want to use chattr
[19:40] <grkblood13> i want to do something where root doesnt have to unchattr the file
[19:41] <grkblood13> maybe something that would only give root the ability to alter files within a given directory
[19:41] <grkblood13> regardless of the owner
[19:42] <urlin2u> dttah, run the update/ upgrade and see if a graphic driver is found, yo can use the classic desktop.
[19:42] <edbian> Is it possible to have evolution send an email message at a specific time?
[19:42] <mbrigdan> grkblood13, You might be able to access control lists to get around openssh's owner detection thing
[19:43] <qin> grkblood13: Normally, you do copy of files like this and monitor user accounts, overiting file if nessessary.
[19:43] <bytesaber_work> apt-cache search nvidia-bl   returns no results as instructed by.....

[19:43] <urlin2u> !classic | dttah
[19:43] <mbrigdan> grkblood13, I don't know if acl's will override the owner though, you'd have to check
[19:44] <grkblood13> qin: yes, i could always copy over an altered authorized_keys file as root, but that still doesnt dissallow the user from altering the file in between the copies
[19:44] <dttah> urlin2u, but after i complete updating system it should appear ?
[19:45] <mbrigdan> Hello, it seems that update-initramfs is adding blacklisted modules to my initramfs, which is causing multiple issues. How can I stop this?
[19:45] <urlin2u> dttah, hard to say, do you know the graphic card. You also always run the update/upgrade in a instal.
[19:46] <rumpe1> mbrigdan, use update-initramfs to update it using your blocklist
[19:46] <yhager> Has anybody seen this: /usr/lib/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_simple_async_result_take_error (natty)?
[19:46] <coleix> Guys how do i terminate a frozen application? i installed the sharp printer as a generic laser printer and it froze when printing a test page
[19:46] <th0r> coleix: xkill?
[19:46] <mbrigdan> rumpe1, I've tried that, multiple times. I've used verbose mode to confirm that it's adding blacklisted modules
[19:46] <mostel> hi guys, i have a problem.. i have ubuntu 10.04 installed on my netbook and whenever i open the update manager, i see available updates, but when i hit the button update, i give the root pass, it says "building source packages", but after that, i get no response... and returns to the previous page... any ideas why is this happening?
[19:46] <dttah> urlin2u, ok, right now my system is updating the system, lets wait and see will it appear, and my second question, I have created filesystem 100GB, do you think it's enough for filesystem partition?
[19:46] <Saviq> can someone please take a look at the depedns here http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/libmono-corlib4.0-cil and tell me how can that be right?
[19:47] <coleix> is there something like task manager?
[19:47] <Saviq> *depends
[19:47] <Saviq> coleix: gnome-system-monitor is one
[19:47] <urlin2u> dttah, file system?
[19:47] <glebihan> coleix, gnome-system-monitor
[19:48] <coleix> is there a key shortcut? i had to force shutdown a second ago
[19:48] <dttah> urlin2u, the partition where is OS(Ubuntu) installed
[19:48] <urlin2u> dttah, depends on your needs.
[19:48] <h00k> coleix: also, 'top' from a terminal, but gnome-system-monitor is 'prettier' in a graphical environment
[19:48] <urlin2u> dttah, install is about 3.5 gigs.
[19:49] <Saviq> dttah: is that for your home dir, too?
[19:49] <dttah> urlin2u, I'm a newbie in Linux field and im just getting started, it might seem to be less for me ?
[19:49] <guntbert> grkblood13: out of curiosity: why do you want to do that?
[19:49] <glebihan> coleix, there is no predefined shortcut to launch it, you could define one though
[19:49] <dttah> Saviq, no Home dir is 1.5TB the filesystem partition where is Ubuntu installed is 100GB
[19:49] <pars> hi
[19:50] <Saviq> dttah: I doubt you'll ever reach half of it...
[19:50] <urlin2u> dttah, ah the root is 100 gis.
[19:50] <urlin2u> gigs
[19:50] <coleix> i thought it was ctrl+alt+t for terminal but didn`t work
[19:50] <pars> urlin2u
[19:50] <urlin2u> pars, yes
[19:50] <pars> >URLİN2U
[19:50] <dttah> yes the partition where is ubuntu installed is 100gb but i have partition for data files such as music this then its 1.5tb
[19:50] <pars> thank you
[19:50] <dttah> Saviq, sounds swell )
[19:51] <pars> ı did and ı can use my desktop now
[19:51] <urlin2u> pars, sure,  don't remember it though.;-)
[19:51] <pars> unity -- reset worked
[19:51] <dttah> urlin2u, oh the update is done it requires to restart PC, im on my way to restart see will the Unity lunch appear

[19:51] <urlin2u> pars, you to.
[19:52] <lake> I have this issue where nm-applet just closes when it loses an internet connection.
[19:52] <kuzushi> word, I fixed it
[19:53] <lake> i always have to launch it to get it back. I want it to just stay in the panel like on OS X.
[19:53] <dttah> urlin2u, no... it did't appear:( maybe there is a option that i should turn it on to appear ?
[19:54] <lake> how can i make nm-applet always stay open?
[19:54] <urlin2u> dttah, look in additional drivers in the menu, this is an area I'm not real exsperiened in just so you know I can't really help you beyond theses basic tasks.
[19:55] <urlin2u> lake, which desktop?
[19:55] <dttah> urlin2u, ok thanks let me check it
[19:55] <magnus> hello, is it a Photoshop for Ubuntu?
[19:55] <lake> urlin2u: gnome
[19:55] <lake> urlin2u: i use gnome-panel
[19:55] <qin> magnus: gimp
[19:55] <urlin2u> lake, okay which release, is it Natty classic?
[19:56] <magnus> gimp? what is that?
[19:56] <qin> magnus: Or try photoshop with wine, /join #winehq
[19:56] <lake> urlin2u: yeah
[19:56] <qin> !gimp | magnus
[19:56] <lake> urlin2u: i use gnome/xmonad
[19:56] <magnus> ah tnx :P
[19:58] <urlin2u> lake, are you completely updated?
[19:59] <y4h0> what is wrong with initramfs-tools ?\
[19:59] <lake> urlin2u: no. shoudl i 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get upgrade'?
[19:59] <urlin2u> lake, always stay updated.
[20:00] <Saviq> ah fffuuu... mirrors
[20:01] <urlin2u> lake, I see an older post on the ubuntu forums that was the fix, but also very little else, here is the thread. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=843341
[20:02] <gigenieks> Jordan_U: Thank you, but he want to do that later. Especially he have some wierd issue with booting in Lubuntu meaning it doesnt load!!! ...... all is the same, only there is cursor "_" in top left corner and it stays like that... soooo hard, fix oone thing comes next, but he need to get that Lubuntu working, so that PC is usable (internet + torrents + skype) See later guys!!
[20:03] <sniperjo_> Has anyone got any experience with usbip ?
[20:04] <urlin2u> !ask | sniperjo_
[20:04] <dttah> urlin2u, was pretty simple, just activated the GPU's driver and it showed up
[20:04] <sum1nil> is the only way to view netflix on ubuntu, installing windows as a virtual machine
[20:04] <urlin2u> dttah, cool .;-)
[20:05] <sniperjo_> I'm trying to attach a usb port over ip via usbip, I'm getting the error usbip err: vhci_attach.c: 324 (query_import_device) recv op_common, Any ideas?
[20:05] <DTTAH> urlin2u, Thanks man, you were helpful and overall these guys are cool always hand when you feel help, Thanks )
[20:05] <qin> sum1nil: Rather use less picky site.
[20:05] <urlin2u> DTTAH, good channel for sure. ;-)
[20:07] <mbrigdan> Grr, this is getting annoying. Does anyone know what would cause update-initramfs to add modules that have been blacklisted? It's causing me major issues
[20:07] <DTTAH> urlin2u, :)  if it's not hard for you, would your address me where should I start to learn? I come from NT systems, and I would like to learn GNU stuff... like options tricks I mean be able to handle GNU as needs and command line
[20:08] <urlin2u> DTTAH, I learned by just doing it, but I had not used a computer before, so I have no real idea's on that
[20:08] <DTTAH> urlin2u, waoo... you learned without reading books ?
[20:09] <urlin2u> DTTAH, yeah, and a ot of time on the Ubuntu Forums, I know no code per-say
[20:09] <lake> urlin2u: getting up to date
[20:09] <DTTAH> urlin2u, how nice )
[20:09] <qin> DTTAH: The gate to elightement: man man
[20:10] <DTTAH> qin, I believe that man thing is kind of help app ye?
[20:11] <urlin2u> DTTAH, I learned this while pursuing a major and minor in college not even related, a bit of a addiction really.
[20:12] <bsod1_> is there a way to move close-minimize-maximize icons to a panel in 11.04 classic desktop?
[20:12] <DTTAH> I'm using xChat and i would like to remove these all networks from the network list, but I'm enough lazy to remove them one-by-one, how may I remove them at once ?
[20:12] <DTTAH> urlin2u, i would like to learn this like one of you )
[20:13] <urlin2u> DTTAH, you will, I have some skils a poser really compared to a IT person
[20:13] <qin> DTTAH: Something like this, google books have some nice free to read books, UNIX and Linux System Administration Handbook is one of worth reading.
[20:13] <sum1nil> Help please. I just wiped 10.10 off my desktop machine replacing it with natty but have arrived at a grub rescue screen. What should I do
[20:14] <DTTAH> urlin2u, but this OS seems pretty hard, I mean GNU is ok to learn but terminal commands are mind-blowingly hard.
[20:14] <urlin2u> sum1nil, hmm this is a fresh install of Natty?
[20:14] <DTTAH> qin, let me google it
[20:14] <sum1nil> yes I told it to erase the old os
[20:15] <sum1nil> in the dialog
[20:15] <urlin2u> DTTAH, at first yes, there is also a #ubuntu-offtopic for this sort of talk, before we get the off topic bot commands
[20:15] <qin> !abc | DTTAH
[20:15] <qin> !abs | DTTAH
[20:16] <Combatjuan> I built a new kernel using the wiki and the "old fashioned debian way".  When I boot with the new kernel it fails after a minute or so with "Gave up waiting for root device" claiming that /dev/disk/by-uuid/THE-UUID-OF-THE-DISK doesn't exist.  I don't think it's either of the usual suspects because the root and root_delay match working kernels.
[20:16] <urlin2u> sum1nil, any other OS on the computer, or additional hard drives?
[20:17] <Combatjuan> If I cd to /dev/, there is no "disk" entry.  I've never understood what causes something to appear in /dev/ but that definitely seems like a bad sign.
[20:17] <mbrigdan> Does anyone know what would cause update-initramfs to add modules that have been blacklisted? It's causing me major issues. Thanks!
[20:17] <sum1nil> yes previously it was dual bootable with grub 2 Karmic Koala and Win 7 ; 2 500gb hard drives
[20:17] <DTTAH> Thanks )
[20:17] <urlin2u> Combatjuan, we can't help outside of the standard kernels in ubuntu.
[20:18] <Combatjuan> urlin2u: If it helps, it's build from linux-source with no modifications.
[20:18] <mbrigdan> Combatjuan, Does your new kernel have an initramfs? Because you could have missed including a module you need to access your filesystem
[20:18] <urlin2u> sum1nil, have you tried switching the HD's at the bios?
[20:18] <sniperjo_> how could i setup nc to list and redirect to ttyUSB0
[20:18] <Combatjuan> mbrigdan: I assume so, I copied the existing config.  I'll go check.
[20:19] <sum1nil> no, I left the bios alone when I upgraded
[20:19] <mbrigdan> Combatjuan, I think you need to use a command line option to get it to make one. I think the wiki has a section on "the ubuntu way", so maybe compared your commands with their commands.
[20:19] <urlin2u> sum1nil, try that first otherwise we have a script you can run to diagnose the thang
[20:19] <sum1nil> ok
[20:20] <sum1nil> be back in a bit
[20:20] <urlin2u> sum1nil, cool
[20:21] <astronaute> Is there some firefox addon capable of blacklisting a web page so it doesn't open at all ?
[20:21] <helpless_chicken> lol
[20:21] <Combatjuan> mbrigdan: It does have a section on making one since as of Lucid, apparently the postinst no longer makes one.  But--and this is going to make you hate me more--I'm on Jaunty trying to build a 2.6.32 kernel (the Jaunty kernel I was using seems to have a bug with my hardware+sleep sometimes).
[20:21] <qin> sniperjo_: http://usbip.sourceforge.net/
[20:22] <sniperjo_> qin: I've tried that, I keep getting a strange error
[20:22] <coleix> astronaute, try ading the domain to adblock plus filter
[20:22] <sniperjo_> qin:  I'm getting the error usbip err: vhci_attach.c: 324 (query_import_device) recv op_common, Any ideas?
[20:22] <helpless_chicken> gentoo is a fucking distribution. Nobody wants it.
[20:22] <h00k> !language | helpless_chicken
[20:22] <jigal> how can i setup my commands in ubuntu
[20:22] <jigal> ?
[20:22] <maalac> hi
[20:23] <astronaute> coleix it is done, but the window is still opened, only the images and scripts are blocked, not the page itself
[20:23] <helpless_chicken> und
[20:23] <Combatjuan> Anyway, there does appear to /be/ a matching /boot/initrd.img-MYNEWVERSION.  It just doesn't seem to work?
[20:23] <maalac> anybody knows a room for WEB OS topic..
[20:23] <jigal> i have setup a command zf in the past but i don't remember how anymore
[20:23] <BlueEagle> !ot | helpless_chicken
[20:23] <sRq> Need advice on PHP development environment... need to be able to work on win7 machine at work and mac os x at home... running Vbox now on hosts, but managing multiple servers is becoming a nightmare... any suggestions?
[20:23] <helpless_chicken> und
[20:23] <oCean> sRq: how is that an #ubuntu issue?
[20:24] <oCean> jigal: do you mean command aliases?
[20:24] <sRq> oCean: because im running ubuntu server as a guest on both hosts
[20:24] <urlin2u> mallac, there is #ubuntu-offtopic
[20:24] <mbrigdan> Combatjuan, Have you looked at this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile ?
[20:24] <BlueEagle> sRq: I suggest #PHP (and Quanta+ on Cygwin in windows)
[20:24] <sRq> oCean: and i want to continue to run ubuntu-server as my dev box because its what i will use for prod
[20:24] <oCean> sRq: I think I don't understand your actual question then
[20:24] <mbrigdan> Combatjuan, I think the relevant line is "make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-some-string-here kernel-image kernel-headers", especially that --initrd option
[20:25] <sum1nil> urlin2u: ok switching boot order seemed to fix it I can see windows 7 and ubuntu - thanks
[20:25] <urlin2u> sum1nil, cool.;_)
[20:25] <BlueEagle> sRq: What I actually do is to run an X-server on the box I'm developing on and connect to the server over ssh and run quanta from that.
[20:25] <afeijo> how can I install php to use with my php+mysql?
[20:25] <Combatjuan> mbrigdan: Yeah, that's the guide I followed.  I initially tried to do it the new way, but that failed on two fronts: The linux-headers .deb it built had a dependency problem, and it while it did boot, it didn't recognize the network.
[20:25] <BlueEagle> Still !ot would most likely be more suitable if #php is not your first choice.
[20:25] <qin> sniperjo_: Hm, neat idea to share usb... lets try it.
[20:25] <h00k> !lamp | afeijo
[20:26] <sniperjo_> qin: Ive seen a few things about using nc for it
[20:26] <Combatjuan> mbrigdan: I checked my history, it looks like I did include --initrd.
[20:26] <sRq> BlueEagle: im thinking hosted cloud dev environment..? know any cases of others opting for this?
[20:26] <Combatjuan> The two problems with the "new way" may well have been related.  Presumably bad things are going to happen when linux-headers-XXX doesn't install.
[20:26] <mbrigdan> Combatjuan, hmm. I think you've exceeded my level of expertise then. I've also got to go, sorry! Hopefully you can make it work!
[20:27] <jigal> oCean,  i have created the command zf which will run some zend framework related stuff. but i want to edit the config of the zf command how can i do that?
[20:27] <Combatjuan> mbrigdan: I appreciate you trying.  Thank you.
[20:27] <qin> sniperjo_: What about: http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-set-up-a-usb-over-ip-server-and-client-with-ubuntu-10.04 ?
[20:27] <oCean> jigal: what do you mean by "created the command zf" ? As an alias? As a script?
[20:27] <DoITDoIT> Alt+PrintScreen+o :3
[20:28] <qin> sniperjo_: With netcat? Do not see it.
[20:28] <sniperjo_> qin: Well, really all i want to do is send serial over wifi from one computer to another
[20:28] <jigal> oCean, i think as an alias was a long time ago don't remember
[20:28] <akkad> does ubuntu still use md5+salt for passwords in /etc/passwd?
[20:29] <DTTAH> urlin2u, is there a way to make sure is my PC doing well? I mean drivers check, check is there missing anything I mean general check-up ?
[20:29] <oCean> jigal: you can create an alias for a certain command. For example, you can add  alias cl='clear'  to your ~/.bashrc file, then you could use the shorter command cl instead of clear
[20:30] <urlin2u> DTTAH, there is the smart check for the HD in disk utilities, about the length of my experience
[20:30] <qin> jigal: Ctrl-l
[20:30] <jigal> oCean, so should i check my ~/.bashrc file?
[20:31] <wolfez> jigal: run "which zf"
[20:31] <Jordan_U> akkad: No, it uses /etc/shadow and SHA 512 + salt.
[20:31] <jigal> wolfez, gives me /usr/local/bin/zf
[20:31] <oCean> jigal: I'm still not sure what you actuall want to do.
[20:31] <wolfez> jigal: then edit /usr/local/bin/zf
[20:31] <oCean> *actually
[20:31] <BatBlaster> why does nautilus crash so much
[20:31] <BatBlaster> amyway
[20:31] <Jordan_U> akkad: No modern *NIX still uses md5 (or stores password hashes directly in /etc/passwd).
[20:31] <urlin2u> DTTAH, I saw this lately seems kinda cool,  http://www.ubuntugeek.com/self-service-linux-mastering-the-art-of-problem-determination.html
[20:32] <ikonia-remote> DTTAH: personally I'd ignore anything ubuntugeek.com writes
[20:32] <BatBlaster> how do I use dd?
[20:32] <urlin2u> ikonia-remote, it is aink to a book is all.
[20:32] <DTTAH> urlin2u, ikonia-remote let me check what it says :)
[20:33] <oCean> BatBlaster: to do what exactly?
[20:33] <BatBlaster> makke an image of a usb drive
[20:35] <h00k> BatBlaster: check out 'man dd' from a terminal
[20:35] <akkad> dd if=/dev/usbdev of=/file bs=2048
[20:35] <BatBlaster> the manpage is confusing
[20:35] <h00k> BatBlaster: basically you'll do 'sudo dd if=/dev/usbdevicegoeshere of=/file/destination/path.img
[20:36] <BatBlaster> i no has sudo
[20:36] <wolfez> BatBlaster: dd if=<input device> of=<output device>
[20:36] <wolfez> BatBlaster: google it
[20:36] <sniperjo_> qin:  had any luck ?
[20:36] <BatBlaster> its confusing and dangerous if i do something dumb...
[20:36] <wolfez> ok
[20:36] <Combatjuan> Ok.  I'll try another tack here.  /dev/eth0 doesn't exist under this kernel.  How do things get put into /dev?  I thought that if I did "modprobe tg3" (the network driver) then it would be loaded and the device would appear?  But apparently not.
[20:37] <wolfez> BatBlaster: what are you trying to do with dd
[20:37] <h00k> BatBlaster: what do you mean, you don't have sudo?
[20:37] <oCean> BatBlaster: true, you have to be careful to use the correct device as input (if=) and output (of=)
[20:37] <rypervenche> Does it matter what bs you use for dd?
[20:37] <wolfez> rypervenche: ???
[20:37] <BatBlaster> if i lock the card
[20:38] <wolfez> ....?
[20:38] <BatBlaster> its an sd card
[20:38] <wolfez> what about locking? wth are you trying to do?
[20:39] <BatBlaster> sd  cards have that little tab on them
[20:39] <wolfez> right
[20:39] <BatBlaster> write protection
[20:39] <wolfez> ok
[20:39] <BatBlaster> so when i make an iage, i can't screw it up
[20:40] <h00k> BatBlaster: just make sur you don't overwrite your harddrive, is what I'm saying
[20:40] <wolfez> general tip, if=device of=file, and thats *usually* safe
[20:41] <wolfez> BatBlaster: meaning if you're trying to make an image of your sd card, you'd do something like if=/dev/mysdcarddevice of=supercoolsdcard.img
[20:41] <b26> anyone having trouble with firefox 6 and dragging from address bar to bookmark toolbar folders?
[20:41] <DTTAH> urlin2u, I guess Ubuntu should have its own GNU help guide yes ?
[20:41] <BatBlaster> i thought i did it from where its mounted in /media, but u know better than i do
[20:42] <urlin2u> DTTAH, not sure really, if it does or doesn't or should to be honest.
[20:43] <DTTAH> urlin2u, Thanks )
[20:44] <urlin2u> DTTAH, with brand loyalty if you go to other linux based channels you will see, all kinds of cruft on Ubuntu validity as =even being linux rather funny really.
[20:46] <DTTAH> urlin2u, as I completed installation of Linux I realized what sort of crap is Windows' systems) no virues? no trojans and hidrags? that's just terrific )
[20:46] <BatBlaster> no one botheres when more computers can be infrecterd with a pc virus
[20:47] <BatBlaster> would usbmon3 be my card?
[20:47] <pjwe> which distro would enable wine to perform t he best
[20:47] <urlin2u> DTTAH, basically, root kits can run but need root, theoretically you could carry a .exe badware to a windows setup.
[20:48] <urlin2u> !best | pjwe
[20:48] <pjwe> ....ok
[20:49] <cristian_c> Hi
[20:49] <cristian_c> I would like to operate the keys with the keyboard wireless media desktop
[20:49] <cristian_c> I connected everything and used the KeyTouch program to configure the keys
[20:49] <DTTAH> urlin2u, yes but possibility is pretty low in compare with Windows' tho
[20:49] <cristian_c> I found this wiki page at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KeyTouch
[20:49] <cristian_c> from the back of the keyboard you can see that this is the model Media Wireless Desktop (Y-RAC66) while on the wiki, including keyboards is supported Media Wireless Desktop (Y-RAE68)
[20:50] <cristian_c>  I selected it from keytouch, and not all the keys worked
[20:50] <leachim6> hi, I'm running ubuntu 10.10 and for some reason, when I unplug my laptop, it sometimes says it's still plugged in
[20:50] <leachim6> even after a power cycle
[20:50] <leachim6> but sometimes it doesn't.....there's really no rhyme or reason to it
[20:50] <cristian_c> but following the keytouch editor manual, I opened Keytouch Editor to make the keyboard supported
[20:50] <cristian_c> The nice thing is that keytouch editor recognizes perfectly all the keys on the keyboard and and suggests the default and right actions for each key
[20:50] <urlin2u> DTTAH, yeah,I'm not worried thats for sure. ;-)
[20:50] <cristian_c> added to the list all keys I saved the keyboard file called labtec_mwd_yrac66_kbd. At this point I open keytouch again to select the new keyboard introduced in the database. I choose it and try to set the keys
[20:50] <cristian_c> as the first test I set the mail key (but remember I tried other keys), choosing the program to use and the field is filled with evolution - component = mail
[20:50] <cristian_c> And then I press Ok or Apply, but in both cases if I press the key, the computer goes into standby (and of course then asks me the password to unlock it), instead of opening evolution. Even if I fill out the field only with the string 'evolution' the same thing happens
[20:51] <cristian_c> Why with keytouch editor is the keyboard recognized and with keytouch not? How can I find a solution?
[20:52] <leachim6> anything I can check?
[20:53] <DTTAH> urlin2u, one more question:) is bash programming POWERUFL stuff? judging from a lot of *nix power users they claim it can does a lot good and bad, is that true ?
[20:53] <leachim6> gnome-power-monitor just says my laptop's always plugged in when it's obviously not
[20:53] <BatBlaster> /dev/sdc1
[20:53] <urlin2u> DTTAH, I have a cursory understand depends on its use I suspect.
[20:54] <Leef> hi i cant use backlight on my new laptop samsung rc520. When i use fn + light down... still is on maximum how i can repair it?
[20:54] <DTTAH> urlin2u, basically i have been told if you handle bash programming fluently it can badly harm/destroy servers,sites.... )
[20:55] <leachim6> the battery percentage is listed in the details if I click "preferences" on gnome-power-manager, but the icon reads that it's plugged in
[20:55] <leachim6> anything I can check?
[20:55] <urlin2u> DTTAH, I use bash for launching a coupe of things at times, and reload the sytem on a reinstall, is all
[20:56] <leachim6> my battery says it's plugged in, but it's not....anything I can check related to that?
[20:57] <magnus> was it #wine for wine-help?

[21:02] <Jordan_U> meegooo: You're welcome.
[21:03] <DTTAH> urlin2u, If it's not that hard for you would you check this book for a second to suggest me Should i get started with it or it's not that good? Im completely Newbie and according to that book it amazing for beginners: people.wallawalla.edu/~larry.aamodt/engr122/TLCL-09.12.pdf Thanks
[21:04] <urlin2u> DTTAH, you have a url
[21:05] <spexi> Hi! Any idea why Ubuntu 11.04 is freezing always when copying files to USB stick? The mouse is moving but you cant't click anything, and screen dims a little bit to gray. It just isn't so hard task that all resources are needed when copying, and it doesn't do the same thing with windows
[21:05] <spexi> Has it something to do with file system with the stick or..?
[21:05] <DTTAH> urlin2u, sure there you go: people.wallawalla.edu/~larry.aamodt/engr122/TLCL-09.12.pdf              You just got to copy and paste in your firefox because this not http:// thing and from chat it's not automatically recognizing it as web site
[21:05] <urlin2u> DTTAH, I found it hold on
[21:06] <DTTAH> urlin2u, Thanks nice attitude man
[21:06] <uns0b1ll> whats the pastebin
[21:07] <sniperjo_> how can i forward /dev/ttyUSB0 over nc ?
[21:07] <urlin2u> DTTAH, hard to say for me, it's free seems to have in the table of contents the stuff needed.
[21:07] <bsmith093> how do i make a wine lauchner for a program
[21:09] <DTTAH> urlin2u, anyways I think I should give it a try... If i fail I'll look for one other book relatively easier than this )
[21:09] <deadwish>  1
[21:09] <deadwish> umm
[21:10] <urlin2u> DTTAH, thats all you can do, many say the terminal is intimidating for one, I started there so it seems like home to me
[21:11] <iamnigel> is there a chat going on here?
[21:11] <Bilz> hi, ive sftp'ed into one of my computers on my network. im trying to copy and paste some files on that computer. however, i get an error: unknown reason. any ideas?
[21:11] <rcmaehl_> Can someone teamviewer into my pc and tell me wtf is going on with xchat please
[21:12] <urlin2u> iamnigel, no just you with a different nic
[21:12] <DTTAH> urlin2u, Sure, as long as you don't handle Terminal well it means you don't know Linux... it's one of the most important thing in Linux which is Linux famous with.
[21:12] <Bilz> i'm able to create folders and delete them, create files and delete them (through sftp) but copying and pasting isn't working?!?!
[21:12] <IdleOne> rcmaehl: what are you seeing and please no cursing?
[21:12] <rcmaehl_> It's not accepting input

[21:23] <boot-troubles> Hi all.
[21:25] <boot-troubles> Need help with bad boot behavior from natty.
[21:26] <boot-troubles> http://pastebin.com/GXgV5Zxc
[21:26] <cige> so I have been having trouble getting my wifi to work, the wireless on my laptop has worked in previous versions of ubuntu, but after installing 11.04 the propritary driver no longer seems to work
[21:27] <cige> I cannot detect any wireless signals
[21:30] <IdleOne> rcmaehl: all good now?
[21:31] <rcmaehl> yeah
[21:31] <IdleOne> :)
[21:32] <coleix> Is there a way to scrowwheal click scroll or softscroll like in windows?
[21:33] <cige> It may be that since HP went out of business, and HP owns Compaq (my laptop is a presario) the wireless driver might no longer be updated for linux
[21:33] <cige> I assume that if it's restricted then the company is the ones who update it
[21:33] <qin> cige: Your wireless is hp made?
[21:34] <cige> the card itself? probably not let me check
[21:34] <qin> cige: lspci
[21:34] <cige> it's a Broadcom
[21:35] <cige> Broadcom BCM4311
[21:35] <qin> cige: Than you need to wait until broadcom go bust, before panic. Also you can easly change network card in laptop
[21:35] <cige> ha, yeah
[21:35] <cige> I guess
[21:35] <boern> hello
[21:36] <cige> either way, the driver for it isn't working in this version of ubuntu
[21:36] <cige> I was using 10.04 before this and it was all peachey then
[21:37] <qin> cige: That is real problem. Did you check Launchpad for bugs?
[21:37] <cige> I guess it couldn't hurt to try
[21:38] <cige> if all else fails I guess I can use a usb wifi adaptor :-P

[21:41] <sRq> spinning up an ubuntu server but only for development/testing... need to lock it down to accept only my local IP... is it best to use IP tables or /etc/hosts.allow?
[21:41] <cige> looks like I might have a solution, let's see if this works
[21:42] <boot-troubles> Can anyone help me with a 'Read Error' and/or 'Primary Master Hard Drive Error' on boot?
[21:42] <flaming_bass> I HAVE FUN!
[21:42] <stealz> When I press the Show Desktop key in Ubuntu, I dont want the applets to be hidden. Is there any way to archieve this?
[21:42] <mtrd`> flaming_bass, give me some
[21:43] <flaming_bass> I HAVE FUN!
[21:43] <qin> sRq: hosts.allow/deny is oldish method, but workable, with iptables you have more options.
[21:43] <stealz> I have some widgets on desktop that show cpu and ram usage etc, and when I press the show desktop shortcut all windows are minimized, but the widgets too. IS there any way to change this behaviour?
 Its not possible, its my own space
[21:44] <mtrd`> flaming_bass, too bad
[21:44] <sRq> qin: any tools of making IP tables easier?

[21:45] <h00k> !ot | flaming_bass
[21:45] <qin> stealz: Propably compiz, or use conky instead of widgets.
[21:45] <mtrd`> flaming_bass, me too ! :')
[21:45] <stealz> qin, I am using compiz, but couldnt find the option in ccsm. The key binding ins set in the ubuntu keyboard shortucts menu, but there is no option on customization, i.e. !class=widgetclass.py
[21:45] <FreezingDroid> Crap, I think I unmounted something I needed!  Now when I open a terminal it says "There was an error creating the child process for this terminal.  getpt failed: No such file or directory"
[21:46] <jeeves_moss> is there a way to show all the packages that are installed or a way to force a server install to revert back to a base install with NOHTING else installed without doing a fresh reload from CD?
[21:46] <qin> sRq: recommended - ufw, not recommended - firestarter
[21:46] <stealz> qin, will conky stay up even if you press the show desktop key?
[21:46] <qin> stealz: conky, yes it should.

[21:50] <Bilz> sorry about the language
[21:50] <FloodBot1> Bilz: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

[21:51] <zykotick9> qin, i believe host.allow/deny is only used for services started using inetd (which is unlikely in this day and age)
[21:51] <pavi> I know I am asking the most silliest question when I change fstab entry to /dev/sdc	/data	auto	rw,users	0	0  why does it get mounted as ext4 (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) ??
[21:51] <qin> Bilz: Do you have spare sata plug and cable in your desktop?
[21:51] <pavi> I want it writable to all users
[21:52] <Bilz> qin, a spare i think not
[21:52] <h00k> flaming_bass: Do you have any Ubuntu related support questions? If not, please join #ubuntu-offtopic.

[21:52] <zykotick9> pavi, check the permission on the mount point /data

[21:53] <gmachine_24> Hi - I have a desktop, dual-boot, Win7 and Ubuntu 11.04; everything was fine until today when booting to Ubuntu I ended up with a blinking cursor after (initramfs) - there is a bunch more info but I don't want to put it all here.
[21:53] <gmachine_24> btw I can still boot into Win7 fine
[21:53] <zykotick9> pavi, "ls -l /data" is this a FAT/NTFS mount?
[21:53] <McQueen> hi... at bind9 for subdomain configuration:      subdomainname      IN     A      IP           does it true?

[21:55] <jeeves_moss> is there a way to show all the packages that are installed or a way to force a server install to revert back to a base install with NOHTING else installed without doing a fresh reload from CD?
[21:55] <pavi> anyways thanks
[21:55] <qin> Bilz: Well, ssh is as slow as your network, any phisical connection have its own limits (hard disk speed/connector speep), if you have sata drives, you should have extra sata port on motherboard, cable may be an issue.
[21:55] <zykotick9> pavi, your fstab seems to have a couple of issues, 1) there is no partition 2) you shouldn't be use /dev/sdX anymore

[21:57] <gry> Hi.
[21:57] <Bilz> qin, can i take the sata harddrive from my deskop and some how plug it into my laptop as an external?
[21:58] <boot-troubles> Zykotick9: why should /dev/sdX not be used?  just curious.
[21:58] <Titan> Hello all
[21:58] <gry> Hi.
[21:58] <zykotick9> boot-troubles, they change, thus point to the wrong spot - use UUIDs or LABELs instead
[21:59] <qin> Bilz: usb (apart of 3) is slower than sata, but faster than network, but you need sata-usb adapter to do so.
[21:59] <Titan> i am under Xubuntu 11.4 , this morning everything was running alright but since i restarted i have a strange interface, missing the frame and title bars of the windows, the mouse pointer is replaced by a cross
[21:59] <Bilz> awesome, thanks qin.
[22:01] <boot-troubles> Zykotick9: Thanks -- that might be part of my troubles.
[22:02] <FreezingDroid> So yeah, why can't Ubuntu find linux-source-3.0.3?
[22:02] <zykotick9> boot-troubles, do you know how to find UUIDs?  (not my preferred method)  You can use "sudo blkid".
[22:03] <boot-troubles> Zykotick: No, I am an utter newb, but I do have google.
[22:03] <Titan> zykotick9 did it occurs after sata or ide cable inversion ?
[22:03] <boot-troubles> Would you mind looking at my boot_info_script results file? http://pastebin.com/GXgV5Zxc
[22:04] <zykotick9> !tab > boot-troubles
[22:04] <FreezingDroid> Nobody knows? =(
[22:04] <zykotick9> Titan, ? it can happen for several reasons, even NOT requiring hardware changes of any sort.

[22:06] <Titan> zykotick9 for me it was usually after disk order interchange, or sata cabbles lags
[22:07] <mbrigdan> Ubuntu suddenly seems to be ignoring module blacklists. update-initramfs is adding blacklisted modules, and other modules (like pcspkr) are being loading even though they are blacklisted. Can anyone help?
[22:07] <zykotick9> boot-troubles, i don't personally see anything wrong in your boot_info output, sorry.  But, your fstab is already using UUIDs.
[22:09] <zykotick9> FreezingDroid, does Ubuntu even have a 3 kernel?  I'd be surprised, except for maybe +1

[22:11] <smtail> hi. I just don't get it I am having no luck at all installing ubuntu. I have a standard intel PC. The main IDE hard drive is the primary master. THe installation from the CD goes well. The boot sequence is set to HD first. but every time I get hard disk erro, have to insert the ubuntu CD again. Have tried Copy LIve CD Files proceedure to re link the MBR, but nothing seems to make a difference. ANy idea before I give up?
[22:13] <zykotick9> boot-troubles, sorry "read error" on boot doesn't mean anything to me.  Best of luck.

[22:14] <zykotick9> FreezingDroid, have you seen "/msg ubottu kernel"?  Only thing I can suggest, good luck.  Why are you compiling a 3 kernel?  Do you KNOW it supports some hardware that isn't working?

[22:30] <zykotick9> NonConformist, lol of course
[22:30] <Pistolnik> any czechs here?
[22:30] <McQueen> swilly, i think "top" is getting users cpu use... i am looking for programs cpu use percent....
[22:30] <NonConformist> Well i guess I meant to say is it more forgiving now?
[22:30] <NonConformist> lol
[22:30] <NonConformist> Idk can't find the right word to use xD
[22:30] <zykotick9> NonConformist, check the winedb for windows program compatibility
[22:31] <Jordan_U> boot-troubles: It doesn't sound like you're getting far enough into the boot process to use dmesg, or for anything to have been written to /var/log/dmesg .
[22:31] <swilly> McQueen: are you talking about CPU use for the entire system? top gives cpu use per process and which user is the owner of that process
[22:32] <boot-troubles> NonConformist:  I am just booting from the liveCD, but the non-unity desktop seems pretty flexible and friendly.

[22:32] <sosaited> This looks suspicious to me. So can anyone tell what the hell it could be
[22:32] <boot-troubles> Jordan_U: Maybe not :s ... dmesg did give me quite a lot of text, though -- although this is all probably stuff from the LiveCD boot.
[22:34] <McQueen> swilly, it is showing me on the top Mem:    516160k total,   477192k used,    38968k free,   154180k buffers.... but under this log. its listing the users and progress .... all are %0 mem
[22:34] <McQueen> swilly, does it normal?
[22:34] <Jordan_U> boot-troubles: When you boot from the CD there should be a purple screen with a picture of a keyboard, an '=' sign, and an accessabilitly symbol. If you press any key while at that screen you should get a boot menu. One of the options should be to boot from the first hard drive. Try selecting that option.

[22:39] <zykotick9> McQueen, "top" then "n" to sort by mem%
[22:39] <boot-troubles> Jordan_U:  No.  Nor with my previous drive.
[22:40] <Jordan_U> boot-troubles: Odd. Has any OS worked from either of these drives? Was it the same problem before?
[22:40] <gmachine_24> Jordan_U do you have any idea how to resolve this: I have a desktop, dual-boot, Win7 and Ubuntu 11.04; everything was fine until today when booting to Ubuntu I ended up with a blinking cursor after (initramfs) - there is a bunch more info but I don't want to put it all here.
[22:40] <boot-troubles> Jordan_U: However, both drives were visible, and data could be written to / read from them, so I don't think it is a hardware problem.
[22:40] <Jordan_U> boot-troubles: It could be something like your BIOS not supporting SATA or something similar.

[22:54] <PDunny> I have terminal running how do I launch my GUI? Startx not working
[22:54] <gravestone> hi
[22:54] <szal> PDunny: define 'not working'
[22:55] <NonConformist> i have a stupid question can i install ubuntu on my computer with my phone? i don't have cds or a usb lying around xD
[22:55] <PDunny> bash: startx: comandnotfound
[22:55] <PDunny> I can launch with startlxde
[22:55] <BarkingFish> PDunny, if you're regular user in the terminal, try service dm start
[22:55] <PDunny> But just installed Kubuntu Mobile and want to test the GUI with that
[22:55] <BarkingFish> if you're running kubuntu, try service kdm start
[22:55] <PDunny> unrecognized service
[22:56] <PDunny> unrecognized service:/
[22:56] <BarkingFish> hm.
[22:57] <PDunny> It's not on a computer .....
[22:57] <zykotick9> BarkingFish, fyi kubuntu mobile != kubuntu
[22:57] <IdleOne> PDunny: you should see if kubuntu-mobile has a forum or irc channel.
[22:57] <BarkingFish> zykotick9, ok, sorry - I didn't realise the two were different.
[22:58] <Jasonn> I have a locale problem with perl. How do I set localed?
[22:58] <Jasonn> locales*
[22:58] <BarkingFish> try #kubuntu-mobile
[22:58] <zykotick9> BarkingFish, you don't have to be sorry, i just wanted to point out why your command wasn't working
[22:58] <grizzly-adams> can anyone help me update from jaunty 9.04 to 9.10
[22:58] <fission6> if someone takes my public key can copies it to another machine - can they then ssh into whatever boxes are expected that key?
[22:58] <IdleOne> !eol | grizzly-adams
[22:59] <IdleOne> see the last link
[22:59] <grizzly-adams> via editing the sourcelist
[22:59] <Jasonn> grizzly-adams: Nope, because those are not supported versions. I would recommend just going up to 11.04, or 10.04
[22:59] <j0hndoe> Problem: how do I make grub2 detect puppy-linux? I didn't install a grub because I want to use ubuntu's...
[22:59] <grizzly-adams> yea no i did the eolupgrades and i got nothing
[22:59] <BarkingFish> zykotick9, I'm relatively new to kubuntu, about 4 weeks in, so if I bugger something up, I appreciate being told :) Thanks!
[22:59] <zykotick9> j0hndoe, try "sudo update-grub2" and see if it automatically finds it
[22:59] <BarkingFish> I'm not new to linux, just on this distro
[23:00] <IdleOne> grizzly-adams: you won't be able to upgrade to 9.10 it is also eol
[23:00] <Jasonn> I have a locale problem with perl. How do I set the locales??
[23:00] <IdleOne> !locales | Jasonn
[23:00] <szal> zykotick9: why "update-grub2"?  (with the 2, that is)
[23:00] <fission6> no one knows the answer?
[23:00] <zykotick9> szal, you can use update-grub as well
[23:01] <j0hndoe> zykotick9, unfortunately it only finds two ubuntu versions. Is there any other way?  sudo os-prober doesn't do much, it ask for password then nothing.
[23:01] <grizzly-adams> iam new to this so i can just edit the source list to the karmic repository sites and upgrade like that?
[23:01] <zykotick9> j0hndoe, ick. sorry if the automatic version doesn't work, i don't know what to suggest.  good luck.
[23:02] <IdleOne> grizzly-adams: you could try but it might break a few things. I suggest a clean install of a supported version
[23:02] <NonConformist> nobody knows?
[23:02] <j0hndoe> zykotick9 ty anyways, I did it before maybe the new puppy-linux is buggy. thnx anyways
[23:02] <Anon1234> Hi. How do I listen for usb events from a device?
[23:02] <grizzly-adams> idleone: where would i find a list of these repository sites?
[23:03] <Loshki> fission6: no, the public key is just that: public. ssh requires client access to the *private* key when it logs in using keyed access. Anyone with access to your *private* key can impersonate you....
[23:03] <gridbag> How do I  disable Caps Lock?
[23:03] <szal> grizzly-adams: Karmic is as unsupported as Jaunty; if install sources still exist (probably under "discontinued"), you can use those to upgrade to Karmic and then further to Lucid.. but as IdleOne pointed out, a fresh install would most likely be easier
[23:04] <grizzly-adams> theres no archive of oudated releases?
[23:04] <fission6> Loshki how does it decode your private and check it against the public
[23:04] <fission6> like whats the authentication process like
[23:05] <szal> grizzly-adams: there is, and it's probably in one of the links you got from ubottu..  I have once glanced over the EOL Upgrades page, and I believe that it's in there or at least can be made up with a little brain grease
[23:06] <szal> hint: it's basically changing the release name
[23:07] <PDunny> Anyway to search and see what all I have installed as far as LXDE/Gnome etc goes?
[23:07] <Loshki> NonConformist: I dunno about phones, but there are cd-less install methods. See http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/, the 'frugal install' method...
[23:07] <bazhang> PDunny, a complete list?
[23:07] <ParkerR> PDunny, dpkg -i
[23:07] <linuxuz3r> PDunny, you mean anything related to lxde and gnome?
[23:07] <ParkerR> List all installed programs
[23:07] <linuxuz3r> thats a lot of list
[23:08] <ParkerR> Mhmm
[23:08] <IdleOne> !clone
[23:08] <szal> ParkerR: wrong..  'dpkg -i' installs packages
[23:08] <IdleOne> that will list ALL that is installed
[23:08] <ParkerR> Oh XD -l
[23:08] <bazhang> ParkerR, its -l  not i
[23:08] <linuxuz3r> a lot of packages are dependent on gnome and i dont know about lxde
[23:12] <PDunny> How would I launch Unity?
[23:13] <mostel> hello, in the update manager, when i hit "install updates", i give the root passwd and get no respond afterwards. same goes for the software sources... ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS. Any ideas to fix it?
[23:13] <ParkerR> PDunny, at login screen choose Ubuntu session
[23:13] <PDunny> No login screen
[23:13] <PDunny> Straight to terminal
[23:13] <Loshki> fission6: oh, it's a big song & dance. I seem to recall that first there's an anonymous diffie-hellman exchange using the host keys to form a unique session key for encryption, then the keyed authentication is done by encrypting a nonce with the private key and seeing if it decodes correctly using the public key (or something like that. It's been a long time....)
[23:13] <PDunny> Is a CHRoot
[23:14] <mostel> please guys, if anyone can help, it's quite urgent and it'd be deeply appreciated.. :)
[23:15] <Terbaraddox> @PDunny Type "unity" in the terminal
[23:16] <PDunny> It just locked it up from what I can tell, couldn't load plug-in ccp
[23:16] <ParkerR> PDunny, hmm
[23:16] <PDunny> It's not on a computer like I said:/
[23:19] <mbrigdan> Ubuntu suddenly seems to be ignoring module blacklists. update-initramfs is adding blacklisted modules, and other modules (like pcspkr) are being loading even though they are blacklisted. Can anyone help?
[23:21] <cpgo> Why doesn't or how can I have dash load enviornment variables set inside /etc/enviornment
[23:22]  * PDunny sighs
[23:24] <white_magic> anyone here an expert with backup from linux? I was considering using partimage from Knoppix Live, but I found out PartImage doesn't support ext4 filesystems..
[23:25] <PDunny> Ok the desktop name is hildon
[23:25] <white_magic> i suppose rsync is also an option.. what would it take to move one partition onto a brand new hard drive?
[23:25] <wildbat> white_magic:  just dd then
[23:26] <grizzly-adams> help again i just changed the name on the repositories from jaunty to karmic
[23:26] <grizzly-adams> think thatll do the trick?
[23:26] <white_magic> wildbat: not really an option because it would take forever to copy a 100+GB partition onto my usb 2.0 5400 rpm drive
[23:27] <wildbat> white_magic: or plug the drive in use  gparted the is copy and paste
[23:27] <PDunny> Anyone know how to launch the hildon desktop from terminal?
[23:27] <Jordan_U> grizzly-adams: NO.
[23:28] <wildbat> white_magic: just make a partition in the new drive and rsync then .
[23:28] <lrgamito> greetings people
[23:29] <ParkerR> lrgamito, hello
[23:29] <Jordan_U> grizzly-adams: Trying to upgrade without using update-manager is not supported and is likely to leave you with a broken system.
[23:29] <coz_> PDunny,   in terminal try   hildon --replace   see if that works  or   hildon-desktop --replace
[23:29] <Jordan_U> !eol | grizzly-adams
[23:30] <Jordan_U> grizzly-adams: Change your sources.lst back before doing anything else.
[23:30] <IdleOne> Jordan_U: he has been given the links and seems to insist on doing things the wrong way
[23:30] <IdleOne> I advised a clean install of a supported version.
[23:30] <lrgamito> would like to know if anyone knows how to make s-video out works on ubuntu... i have a dell laptop inspiron 1525...
[23:31] <grizzly-adams> it hasent worked
[23:31] <Gnea> lrgamito: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/SVideo
[23:33] <grizzly-adams> the following packages have unmet dependencies: Mobile-broadband-provider-info: Breaks: libmbca0 but 0.0.4+bzr66-0ubuntu1 is installed.
[23:34] <lrgamito> tks Gnea, but i already seen that... mine reconizes my tv out... its just dont show any images... do u know any other tutorial or site for me to look at?
[23:34] <grizzly-adams> will those fix themselves when i upgrade to lucid?
[23:34] <IdleOne> grizzly-adams: get a 10.10 or 11.04 CD and install, make sure you uncheck the box to format /home (not to lose your files).
[23:35] <IdleOne> or 10.04 cd
[23:35] <FreezingDroid> How can I disable networking at boot?
[23:35] <FreezingDroid> I'm making myself a LiveCD right now
[23:35] <mgj> grizzly-adams, im not sure the upgrade-process will succeed if you have a broken package system
[23:36] <gmachine_24>  Hyperbyte, and whomever else this is the link to the pastebin http://paste.ubuntu.com/674195/
[23:36] <gmachine_24> thank you in advance
[23:36] <Ypsy> Hello everyone, I'm trying to connect to an auth-key only ssh server using nautilus but it just gives me vacant error messages. Same with gvfs-mount. ssh command itself works just fine. Any ideas?
[23:36] <PDunny> Anyone know how to launch the hildon desktop from terminal?
[23:37] <gmachine_24> hildon?
[23:38] <PDunny> yessir gmachine_24
[23:38] <IdleOne> PDunny: log out and at the login manager click on Session and select it
[23:39] <PDunny> IdleOne - Can't log out or in lol
[23:39] <IdleOne> PDunny: then you have a larger issue at hand :)
[23:39] <PDunny> I am not on a computer, I am on a tablet:P
[23:39] <PDunny> And it is in CHRoot
[23:40] <PDunny> So it just pops up a terminal and I have to do it from there
[23:40] <IdleOne> PDunny: we also don't support that, like I said you need to find the proper channel or forum and ask them.
[23:41] <designbybeck> has anyone used a hp deskjet 3052a wireless with Ubuntu?
[23:42] <designbybeck> I've moved my sister and her fam over to Ubuntu Linux, and they just went and bought this HP printer and I don't know if it will work with wireless with Linux
[23:42] <cosgroveb> i don't have a Prt Scr button.. is there any kind of keyboard shortcut to take a screen shot
[23:44] <cosgroveb> nevermind i changed the key binding thanks!
[23:44] <designbybeck> cosgroveb, can you install Shutter? One of my favorite Screen Capture programs I've ever used on any platform
[23:44] <gmachine_24> So it seems to me the file/directory information is not there............
[23:44] <PDunny> How would I launch Gnome from the terminal?
[23:44] <cosgroveb> designbybeck thanks! i will check it out
[23:44] <designbybeck> Oh and I did find the printer at http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/models/deskjet_aio/deskjet_3050a_j611_series.html and It shows full support. so I'll cross my fingers
[23:44] <designbybeck> no prob cosgroveb
[23:45] <Terbaraddox> @PDunny: You are in tty ?
[23:45] <PDunny> I think so not sure
[23:45] <Terbaraddox> ???
[23:52] <g0th> hi
[23:52] <g0th> hi
[23:52] <propus> hey
[23:52] <g0th> what do I need to consider when I want 3d on linux/ubuntu?
[23:52] <g0th> I have an nvidia geforce gtx 200 card iirc
[23:52] <g0th> or 260
[23:53] <g0th> my monitor supports 3D, I have a hdmi 1.4 cable from monitor to amplifier and some cheap hdmi to dvi cable
[23:54] <g0th> so I need to buy a special hdmi to dvi cable?
[23:54] <g0th> and most importantly does it work at all in linux?
[23:55] <propus> g0th: Yeah.. nvidia have support for that in linux.. i haven't used 3d myself but my nvidia gfx drivers works well.
[23:56] <McQueen>  i configured a virtual host. i copy site-enable file which i configured before. then i edit the domain name and folder setting... but serveralias (www) is not  running... what does be wrong?
[23:56] <g0th> propus: do you know if I need a special hdmi to dvi cable?
[23:57] <propus> g0th: that i do not know.. check the nvidia site for wiki..
[23:57] <ParkerR> g0th, the cable should not make a difference
