| BlueEagle | hidensoft: Did you follow the post by Julian in the link I gave you? | 00:00 |
| soreau | X_already_in_use: Thats fine, just be careful when moving the machine.. | 00:00 |
| hidensoft | BlueEagle, yeah | 00:00 |
| BlueEagle | hidensoft: It seems that /etc/default/timidity has TIM_ALSASEQ=true commented out. That could explain why you don't have the sequencer module. | 00:00 |
| hidensoft | i read it more than 30 | 00:00 |
| BlueEagle | hidensoft: Was that the case with your installation? | 00:01 |
| X_already_in_use | soreau: thnx, nah the tower/case don't move its in a comfortable position on a desk. | 00:01 |
| Sudo412370894 | So I am wounder what are the this list and channels and how do I make my own chat room. | 00:01 |

| BlueEagle | hidensoft: did you just say that the directory /etc/default/ does not exist? | 00:02 |
| hidensoft | yes | 00:02 |
| BlueEagle | hidensoft: Are you running off a liveCD? | 00:02 |
| hidensoft | no | 00:02 |
| hidensoft | i don't know but its exist now !!!!! | 00:03 |
| Sudo412370894 | So where can I go for some gimp help? My problem is not well taking care of. | 00:03 |
| BlueEagle | hidensoft: and when you type in the terminal `cd /etc/default/` you receive an error that it does not exist? | 00:03 |
| hidensoft | before this yes , but not anymore | 00:03 |
| bazhang | Sudo412370894, try the gimp channel | 00:03 |
| bazhang | Sudo412370894, /msg alis list *gimp* | 00:04 |
| BlueEagle | hidensoft: When you type do you use auto complete with the tabulator: ie cd /etc/def[TAB] ? | 00:04 |
| BlueEagle | hidensoft: where [TAB] is you pressing the tabulator key once or twice? | 00:04 |

| slipkid08 | hello all | 00:08 |
| happie | how to format a pendrive in ubuntu ? | 00:08 |
| BlueEagle | happie: Insert it in the USB-port. Wait for the icon to pop up on your desktop. Right-click and choose Format. | 00:08 |
| BlueEagle | happie: (I think) | 00:08 |
| hidensoft | BlueEagle: is correct ? or not ? | 00:08 |
| happie | no how from terminal | 00:09 |
| soreau | happie: d! dd | happie | 00:09 |
| soreau | gah | 00:09 |
| soreau | ! dd | happie | 00:09 |
| soreau | !info dd | happie | 00:09 |
| ubottu | happie: Package dd does not exist in natty | 00:09 |
| BlueEagle | happie: The ? was part of the question. The key is the ; or # in the beginnig of the line. These characters denote comments in configuration files. | 00:09 |
| soreau | grrr | 00:09 |
| BlueEagle | happie: Sorry, wrong nick. :) | 00:09 |
| BlueEagle | hidensoft: The ? was part of the question. The key is the ; or # in the beginnig of the line. These characters denote comments in configuration files. | 00:09 |
| Polah | happie: Format as in wipe files from it, wipe it completely (totally destroy the data) or change the file system? | 00:09 |
| happie | ok thanks polah | 00:10 |
| hidensoft | BlueEagle: forget that , its work :D | 00:10 |
| BlueEagle | hidensoft: If the line starts with one of those characters remove it and save the file and do: sudo /etc/init.d/timidity restart | 00:10 |
| Sudo412370894 | happie; You right click the device Icon and there should be a Format above compress. | 00:10 |
| happie | anyone knows about flex ? | 00:10 |
| BlueEagle | !anyone | happie | 00:10 |
| ubottu | happie: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 00:10 |

| bazhang | happie, whats the exact question regarding flex, just saying does anyone know will get zero help | 00:11 |
| Polah | happie: cd /path/to/drive and then rm * will remove the files if that's what you want, make sure you have cd'ed to the drive properly before doing rm * destroying the data or changing the filesystem is a bit more complicated. | 00:11 |
| hidensoft | BlueEagle: thank you very very very much | 00:11 |
| happie | how to link to flex library ? | 00:11 |
| BlueEagle | hidensoft: You're most welcome. Just for my future reference, was it the line that was commented out that caused the issue? | 00:11 |
| Polah | happie: Install it (sudo apt-get install flex) and then anything that needs it should know where to look to use it | 00:12 |
| bazhang | happie, to achieve what, exactly: please be clear *full details* | 00:12 |
| happie | i installed it thanks | 00:12 |

| dr_willis | Sudo412370894, for /usr/share/gimp thats a system dir. you must use root permissions/method to put stuf fin there. | 00:18 |
| soreau | happie: Here | 00:19 |
| Polah | Sudo412370894, use sudo to move it | 00:19 |
| Polah | xqix9u2v, what kind of password do you need to fetch? | 00:19 |
| happie | /j ##programming | 00:19 |
| dr_willis | Sudo412370894, somthing like sudo cp foo /usr/share/gimp OR as i mentioned.. the user has a .gimp* in their home you can put things in. | 00:19 |

| BlueEagle | bazhang: I agree. | 00:21 |
| Polah | xqix9u2v, the root account is inaccessible by default. Use sudo and gksudo to do anything you need to do as root. | 00:21 |
| noob | actually, with xchat, when you connect to ubuntu server it auto joins this room | 00:21 |
| xqix9u2v | ok | 00:21 |
| dr_willis | gcc tutorial ---> http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~beechung/ref/gcc-intro.html | 00:21 |
| soreau | happie: FWIW, I do not think flex is a library and thus, you cannot link to it | 00:21 |
| Sudo412370894 | Ok thanks. I have to leave know I was sitting at coffee store for about 5 hours our so. ^_^ | 00:21 |
| xqix9u2v | ok thank you | 00:21 |
| yekoms | okay, ive tried all i know, and i booted into a live CD and its distorted on desktop too. | 00:22 |
| happie | soreau flex has a library aanuals.nd we can link to it read m | 00:22 |
| soreau | happie: Ok, well it's beyond the scope of this channel anyway | 00:23 |
| happie | soreau flex is a library and we can link to it . | 00:23 |
| happie | ok thanks for your help. | 00:23 |
| soreau | happie: Great. But flex is not ubuntu-specific | 00:23 |
| happie | :) | 00:23 |
| happie | that i don't know. | 00:24 |
| soreau | I do ;) | 00:24 |
| happie | ;) | 00:24 |
| happie | you from which country soreau. | 00:24 |
| yekoms | i guess ubuntu dont line widescreen notebooks :P | 00:24 |

| yekoms | i cant get that far. | 00:24 |
| soreau | happie: This isn't a general chat channel either, sorry | 00:24 |
| dr_willis | yekoms, its more x/driver specific then ubuntu specfic. | 00:25 |
| bazhang | happie, not the chat channel here | 00:25 |
| yekoms | i cant get a useable desktop to try. | 00:25 |
| yekoms | how do i select the driver before the CD boots into install mode? | 00:25 |
| Polah | yekoms: Oh, it doesn't show up at all, not the problem I thought it was then, sorry. | 00:25 |
| soreau | yekoms: What's wrong with it? | 00:25 |
| happie | ok sorry | 00:25 |
| yekoms | its distorted. into three over lapping sections | 00:25 |
| soreau | yekoms: What gpu? | 00:25 |
| yekoms | nvidia 630m | 00:26 |
| soreau | ech | 00:26 |
| yekoms | ubuntu worked GREAT on my dell. | 00:26 |
| yekoms | i wish freebsd had a simple desktop based install so i dont have to manually configure the xserver | 00:26 |
| dr_willis | yekoms, you may want to try the nomodeset option. | 00:26 |
| yekoms | how do i select that? | 00:27 |
| soreau | yekoms: I guess that's nouveau being funny.. you can add nouveau.dontloadme=1 to kernel line so the kernel module is never loaded.. and it should revert to vesa | 00:27 |
| urlin2u | !ot | soreau yekoms | 00:27 |
| ubottu | soreau yekoms: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 00:27 |
| soreau | yekoms: Otherwise, try nouveau.modeset=0 to disable modesetting | 00:27 |
| yekoms | and i do that how when booting from cd? | 00:27 |
| soreau | urlin2u: Since when is graphics driver issues off topic? | 00:27 |
| dr_willis | soreau, i NEVER can rember that option. :) | 00:27 |
| soreau | yekoms: Very carefully ;) | 00:28 |
| urlin2u | soreau, your chatting | 00:28 |
| soreau | dr_willis: heh | 00:28 |
| bazhang | urlin2u, they're doing support | 00:28 |
| yekoms | im not careful....lol | 00:28 |
| soreau | urlin2u: No I'm not.. I'm helping yekoms | 00:28 |
| soreau | Please pipe down | 00:28 |
| urlin2u | bazhang, hard to tell with mentions of freebsd | 00:28 |
| soreau | yekoms: You hit Esc when it first boots | 00:28 |
| bazhang | urlin2u, passing reference, nothing else | 00:28 |
| soreau | yekoms: Then select the kernel line and hit 'e' to edit if I remember correctly | 00:29 |
| Polah | soreau, yekoms: Esc? Isn't it holding shift? | 00:29 |
| bazhang | soreau, its shift | 00:29 |
| soreau | bazhang: Polah: On the live cd, I think you have to hit Esc when you see the running man at the bottom of the screen | 00:30 |
| soreau | otherwise, it will autoboot | 00:30 |
| Polah | soreau: I recall holding shift to get to the CD menu | 00:30 |
| _Techie_ | is there any way to issue a PPPoA connection over ethernet from ubuntu | 00:30 |
| soreau | Polah: Yes, that's for grub | 00:30 |
| soreau | not the live session | 00:30 |
| soreau | Polah: Grub2, specifically | 00:30 |
| yekoms | ima try a few others and see if its just ubuntu acting weird. | 00:31 |
| Polah | soreau: Yes, but I specifically recall it being for the CD as well, I remember seeing a menu with "verify CD integrity" or something along those lines | 00:31 |
| yekoms | im not liking this windows enviroment at all | 00:31 |
| vehemoth | is it fine to use a symlink for my .mozilla folder between distros? | 00:31 |
| yekoms | actually it sucks period. | 00:31 |
| soreau | yekoms: Then put that after the kernel line where it says stuff like '...ro quiet splash' | 00:31 |
| soreau | Polah: Huh, maybe Shift and Esc works to stop the 'auto-selector' | 00:32 |
| bazhang | _Techie_, pppoe you mean? sure | 00:32 |
| _Techie_ | bazhang, no, PPPoA... i was very specific when typing that | 00:32 |
| bazhang | _Techie_, care to be explicit on that then? check network-manager? | 00:33 |
| _Techie_ | bazhang, no ISPs in my country support PPPoE, and im trying to avoid buying a new modem with a PPPoE bridge or a PPTP tunnel | 00:33 |
| dr_willis | vehemoth, if the users uid/gid differ on the differnt disrtos it can cause an issue | 00:33 |
| _Techie_ | bazhang, and unfortunately moving country is out of the question... as much as i would like to move somewhere with faster internet | 00:34 |

| Knuxgen | i have broadcom driver installed but still no wifi can be seen.. any suggestions? | 00:42 |
| noob | cat5 cable? | 00:42 |
| thomedy | hey i need adobe can i use wine to do so | 00:42 |
| noob | sorry, joke | 00:42 |
| thomedy | i need illustrator and photoshop | 00:42 |
| zykotick9 | vehemoth, use the export/import to html option - seriously | 00:43 |
| thomedy | im not familiar with gimp yet im trying to use it right now but my project would already be done i knew more about it | 00:43 |
| furyoshonen | thomedy you can also try inkscape | 00:43 |
| thomedy | how good is it | 00:44 |
| thomedy | i thought that gimp was premier for linux | 00:44 |
| thomedy | i just need the tools im familiar with right now | 00:44 |
| furyoshonen | it is an illustrator replacement, and many consider it to be better than illustrator | 00:44 |
| noob | inkscape is great and easy to use, also has great manual for beginners | 00:44 |
| vehemoth | zykotick9: Is it possible to automatically run that on exit because I'll constantly need to go back and forth between distros | 00:44 |
| bazhang | thomedy, check the appdb | 00:44 |
| bazhang | !appdb | thomedy | 00:44 |
| ubottu | thomedy: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help | 00:44 |
| xqix9u2v | inkscape is easy and fun to | 00:44 |
| Knuxgen | thomedy: 50 % at the best | 00:44 |
| bazhang | thomedy, /join #winehq | 00:44 |
| thomedy | oooh thank you for that | 00:45 |
| zykotick9 | thomedy, just because you're not familiar with an application - does not make it bad! I'm a gimp idiot - i can do what i need only... good luck | 00:45 |
| furyoshonen | gimp is a photoshop replacement, it has many tools photoshop doesn't but photoshop has some tools that gimp doesn't | 00:45 |
| thomedy | i talked to someone who said gimp is great so im sure it is im just not familiar with it | 00:45 |
| furyoshonen | I use primarily gimp, but switch over to photoshop ever once in a while, when there is that tool I need. | 00:45 |
| zykotick9 | vehemoth, ummm, that makes things more difficult for sure! No good suggestion for that sorry | 00:45 |
| djskidd | Hi guys | 00:45 |
| thomedy | oooh is there a gimp room let me see | 00:46 |
| thomedy | oh there is | 00:46 |
| bazhang | thomedy, #gimp perhaps | 00:46 |
| djskidd | Glad my client goes here first | 00:46 |
| thomedy | maybe they can help me familiarize myself with gimp tools | 00:46 |
| thomedy | okay thank you for your advice | 00:46 |
| djskidd | Because I have a question | 00:46 |
| karmst | How do I find out what the terminal exec. command is for a program in the applications menu? | 00:46 |
| djskidd | I'm downloading Debian XFCE right now | 00:47 |
| Fudge | anyone know if u can run apps like firefox for example in xorg without running gnome, say from xterm maybe? | 00:47 |
| vehemoth | zykotick9: is it possible to set up the same uid and gid between ubuntu, debian, and arch. All use the same username, but different groups | 00:47 |
| djskidd | and I want to put it on a USB key | 00:47 |
| zykotick9 | karmst, open the menu editor and you can see the path/executable | 00:47 |
| djskidd | and install from there | 00:47 |
| djskidd | how do I do that? | 00:47 |
| furyoshonen | gimp has a bunch of tutorials: http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/ | 00:47 |
| th0r | Fudge: look at a lighter deskopt like xfce or lxde | 00:47 |
| thomedy | that was inkscape vector drawing | 00:48 |
| zykotick9 | vehemoth, yes - i do that for services sometimes, tricky but possible - good luck | 00:48 |
| djskidd | crap | 00:48 |
| th0r | Fudge: you do need a desktop to run things like firefox, but it doesn't have to be gnome | 00:48 |
| djskidd | gotta change song | 00:48 |
| bazhang | djskidd, and your asking about debian in here? | 00:48 |
| djskidd | ya | 00:48 |
| thomedy | and i was going to look for tutorials but im not even sure how to describe what im trying to do to look up a good tutorial | 00:48 |
| vehemoth | zykotick9: so that will allow me to just symlink the .mozilla directory? | 00:48 |
| Fudge | yeah th0r i know about ligher weight desksops but wondered about xterms usability | 00:48 |
| bazhang | djskidd, #debian | 00:48 |
| Fudge | maybe ill google what it can actually do | 00:48 |
| djskidd | Yeah, that makes more sense | 00:48 |
| djskidd | On freenode? | 00:48 |
| th0r | Fudge: you can start them from the terminal, but you need some kind of window manager to provide the titlebar, borders, etc | 00:49 |
| furyoshonen | there are a bunch of good tutorials on youtube as well | 00:49 |
| th0r | Fudge: you can run a browser like lynx from the terminal if you just want text | 00:49 |
| Fudge | yeah theyre after ff or something but thanks th0r | 00:50 |
| zykotick9 | vehemoth, sharing .mozilla is a bad idea - i've tried it. Your ORIGIONAL question was how to share without sync, and i suggested the HTML cause it's what i've personally used to share bookmarks of firefox between different distros/versions - I've personally given up on trying to "sync" mozilla across versions | 00:50 |
| Fudge | plenty of really basic wm's that could serve the purpose i guess | 00:50 |
| karmst | perfect that's what I needed | 00:50 |
| karmst | thanks | 00:50 |
| th0r | zykotick9: have you looked at sync via something like spideroak? I use it to sync my opera bookmarks between computers and OS's | 00:52 |
| zykotick9 | vehemoth, it is possible to edit the number UID/GID value to be the same across multiple distros / versions - for an example, I've used the UID/GID 200 for apt-cacher-ng across multiple system successfully - but you have to know what you're doing! Good Luck. | 00:52 |
| vehemoth | zykotick9: there might be a setting to use bookmarks.html instead of sql but I don't know of the performance. Yes it was, I wasn't sure if it would work better just by copying the whole folder | 00:52 |
| dr_willis | main reason ive switched to chrome browser. :) it can sync across all my pc's easialy. | 00:52 |
| zykotick9 | th0r, without using "the cloud"! That key for me. Remote sync is EASY, but personally i don't subscribe. | 00:53 |
| th0r | zykotick9: no, admittedly it does use the cloud, but they claim everything on the server is encrypted and even they can't access it | 00:53 |
| dr_willis | Cloud Phobic :) | 00:53 |

| strickly | dont go | 00:56 |
| alecbenzer | http://clang.llvm.org/get_started.html seems to detail a fix to the problem I'm having, but I imagine the intention would be that the ubuntu version would work by itself | 00:56 |

| MacRohard | Anyone know why I can't get wifi to work using the iwconfig tool but it works using the network manager? this is for an open wifi (so no wpa supplicant stuff). I'm just setting the essid, channel, the key to open and then ifconfig it up - but it never associates with an ap. | 01:01 |
| bazhang | MacRohard, what are the commands? please pastebin any actual error output | 01:01 |
| zykotick9 | vehemoth, cool thanks (now to try it in iceweasel 6.0) | 01:01 |
| vehemoth | it works | 01:02 |
| vehemoth | that's what I'm using | 01:02 |
| MacRohard | bazhang: http://pastebin.com/fqWr3e45 | 01:04 |
| Walex | MacRohard: associating sometimes is not automatic, and happens only when prompted by the app; you can use 'wpasupplicant' for that, or sometimes up/down the interface. | 01:04 |
| zykotick9 | I'd just just like to say vehemoth's firefox about:config "browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML" to true does recreate the old bookmark.html file in ~/.mozilla/firefox Why isn't this true by default, silly? | 01:06 |
| bazhang | MacRohard, whats the chipset of the NIC | 01:06 |

| bluelight | i am using eeebuntu (aurora os) , i need to install okular. the preset repositories in synaptic only have eeebuntu repositories. how can i enable the ability to install okular ? | 01:10 |
| bazhang | bluelight, add them to /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:10 |
| MacRohard | bazhang, well i've tried three.. wlan0 is the laptops's built in wifi (atheros AR928X) and I tried two usb ones that are rtl8187s - both have the same issue - work with network manager don't do anything with iwconfig. iwlist <interfacE> scan works tho' | 01:11 |
| bazhang | MacRohard, stick with the atheros | 01:11 |
| MacRohard | well that's wlan0 the one i'm using at the moment | 01:11 |
| bluelight | well, i do not mind adding repositories via synaptic. the problem is, i do not know what the repository is .. | 01:11 |
| bluelight | bazhang: | 01:11 |
| bazhang | packages.ubuntu.com bluelight to check | 01:12 |
| bluelight | i was there, it seemed to be a catalog. i was not aware it hasd the actual server names in its site .. i will examine it further. thanks bazhang | 01:13 |
| nicoletto | test | 01:15 |
| zykotick9 | bluelight, fyi mixing repositories between distributions leads to problems, if you're gonna add the ubuntu repo and do updates, you should probably actually just reinstall with ubuntu (for less "issues") Good luck. | 01:17 |

| X-Hunter | my problem is whenever I try to boot from my usb cd drive with ubuntu live 10.04 in it, the bios freezes | 01:23 |
| bluelight | ok, zykotick9 , thanks for the warning .. | 01:23 |
| X-Hunter | any ideas as to whats happening | 01:24 |
| zykotick9 | bluelight, install ubuntu rather then using eeebuntu would be my suggestion ;) | 01:24 |
| Jordan_U | X-Hunter: Does this happen with other bootable CDs as well? | 01:26 |
| zykotick9 | X-Hunter, if it's actually the BIOS that freezes there's not much anyone here can do. Do you get anything on the monitor? | 01:26 |
| X-Hunter | no, i can boot from xubuntu live and opensuse live too | 01:27 |
| X-Hunter | zykotick, i get the bios screen on the monitor | 01:27 |
| Jordan_U | X-Hunter: Xubuntu 10.04? | 01:27 |
| X-Hunter | xubuntu 11.04 | 01:28 |
| X-Hunter | that works | 01:28 |
| X-Hunter | ubuntu 10.04 LTS is what fails | 01:28 |
| CarlFK | X-Hunter: doubtful that the _bios_ freezes. but whatever.. your box is hung. | 01:28 |

| spexi | g | 02:13 |
| GI_Jack | depends on what | 02:13 |
| GI_Jack | its great on a netbook, it'd be really cool on a tablet | 02:13 |
| speghead | I think the layout is hindersome but thats just my opinion | 02:13 |
| GI_Jack | but as a desktop UI no thanks | 02:13 |
| robin0800 | Kronsby, in 11.10 the choice is unity or gnome shell | 02:13 |
| GI_Jack | gnome shell isn't much better from what I here | 02:14 |
| Kronsby | hmmm | 02:14 |
| GI_Jack | I like metacity, there must be an option to "just keep using metacity" | 02:14 |
| === tardis is now known as rww | ||
| GI_Jack | or will metacity cease development, and stop working with GTK at somepoint | 02:15 |
| Kronsby | I can not decide. I could just force myself to use unity if that is how it is going to stay | 02:15 |
| Kronsby | and once I use it a lot i think I will like it | 02:15 |
| vehemoth | kronsby: I don't like it and I'm on a netbook, I'm sure it will get better and once it does I think a few more people will switch to it | 02:15 |
| jeremy-77 | I lost my network indicator from my panel I cant find it to add it back ? anyone know how to get it back? | 02:15 |
| Kronsby | right click the panel and say add to panel | 02:16 |
| Glowball | Hi. I'm having troubles with my internet lately, and I noticed I got an update for dhcp3-client and dhcp3-common on August 16. Is it possible that is related? Problem is: if I try to force the version of dhcp3-common down to the previous one, Synaptic forces me to remove dhcp3-client and ubuntu-minimal. | 02:16 |
| w30 | jeremy-77, indicator-applet | 02:16 |
| Glowball | that it is * | 02:16 |
| jeremy-77 | Kronsby, I tried that it is not in the list unless it is by different name | 02:16 |
| Kronsby | indicator-applet like w30 said | 02:17 |
| robin0800 | GI_Jack, gnome shell is still buggy but unity is really smooth now | 02:17 |
| Kronsby | robin0800, is it smooth? | 02:17 |
| jeremy-77 | oh ok | 02:17 |
| jeremy-77 | found it | 02:17 |
| jeremy-77 | thanks | 02:17 |
| kermit | how would i have my audio come out a different computer, but stay in sync with the video on this computer? | 02:17 |
| Kronsby | I want a vote. Should I force myself to use it or not | 02:18 |
| GI_Jack | anyway, what programs allow mass imports of vcards instead of one at a time | 02:18 |
| GI_Jack | or is this just a bug with gnome or something | 02:19 |
| astropirate | Anyone know of a working webdav client? Very much prefer a GUI one | 02:19 |
| robin0800 | Kronsby, talking of different names how about "gnome tweak tool" appears as "advanced settings" | 02:19 |
| Kronsby | robin0800, what? | 02:20 |
| Kronsby | robin0800, What did you just say? | 02:23 |
| robin0800 | Kronsby, well it installs under one name but when you search for it its not found as I said because its not called that | 02:24 |
| Kronsby | robin0800, Sorry I had to get off for a sec. Did you say somethign? | 02:25 |
| robin0800 | Kronsby, well it installs under one name but when you search for it its not found as I said because its not called that | 02:26 |
| bluelight | zykotick9: i found this -> http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/okular <- though, i do not see where it shows me what the url is for adding the repository to synaptic is ... | 02:26 |
| Kronsby | robin0800, I have no idea what you are talking about. What does this pertain to. sorry man I am lost | 02:26 |
| TheGoof | Hi. | 02:27 |
| TheGoof | why does ubuntu download recommend 32bit version? | 02:27 |
| djskidd | Hi | 02:28 |
| djskidd | I WAS at #debian | 02:28 |
| TheGoof | I have 64bit machine ... why are they saying 32bit is best, without regard to ones architecture? | 02:28 |
| djskidd | But to get it installed, I have to know root password | 02:28 |
| djskidd | I installed through wubi | 02:28 |
| gaelfx | TheGoof: because it's the most widely used, and almost anyone can use it | 02:28 |
| djskidd | what was my root password or how do I find out | 02:28 |
| zykotick9 | bluelight, from that post it appears you need to add the natty repo to your source.list file? Are you NOT running natty currently? | 02:28 |
| bazhang | djskidd, its the sudo password | 02:28 |
| djskidd | I installed through wubi | 02:29 |
| TheGoof | gaelfx : what does that mean? does it mean that some people are too stupid to use 64bit? | 02:29 |
| bazhang | djskidd, same thing | 02:29 |
| djskidd | It never asked for a sudo password | 02:29 |
| Kronsby | I used wubi too. Kinda regret it | 02:29 |
| thomedy | okay so its saying in order to install internet explore i have to rename one of my directories but it doesn't say waht too... or anything like that so i don't wnat to screw up my install and be with out a machine | 02:29 |
| gaelfx | TheGoof: anyone with 64-bit can run 32-bit, but no one with 32-bit can run 64-bit | 02:29 |
| thomedy | any ideas | 02:29 |
| bazhang | djskidd, sure it did. its your user password | 02:29 |
| djskidd | I am entering that alongside the command | 02:29 |
| djskidd | su -c "fdisk -l"\ | 02:29 |
| djskidd | su -c "fdisk -l" | 02:29 |
| gaelfx | TheGoof: no, it means that 32-bit is better tested than 64-bit is (since it has more users and has been around longer) | 02:30 |
| bazhang | djskidd, no | 02:30 |
| TheGoof | so, it seems that they are saying that most people are too stupid to know if they have 32bit or 64bit machine....l because if tha tis the only reason | 02:30 |
| TheGoof | ok, that makes sense to me... thankis | 02:30 |
| bluelight | no, i chose natty because that is the ubuntu version on my laptop... the system with eeebuntu is on a netbook. | 02:30 |
| bluelight | zykotick9: | 02:30 |
| gaelfx | TheGoof: no, there are still applications out there that don't run natively on 64-bit, Skype is a good example | 02:30 |
| djskidd | so what password DO I enter for that command? | 02:30 |
| Glowball | TheGoof: It's saying "If you know what this means, choose accordingly. If you don't, you're better off with the 32 bit version" | 02:30 |
| TheGoof | so they are implying they they have not robustly tested 64bit because their major resource of test is user community | 02:30 |
| bazhang | djskidd, dont use su | 02:30 |
| zykotick9 | TheGoof, honestly, 32bit is easier, and ubuntu aim's for easy compatibility for most people - use 32bit is easier. FYI if you go 64bit and run into library issues check out getlibs. | 02:30 |
| bluelight | zykotick9: i plan ot install on a glash drive and give the okular install a try there, so i do not risk damaging my main install | 02:31 |
| djskidd | The good folks at #debian sent me that command | 02:31 |
| robin0800 | Kronsby, perhaps I should not have directed that to you it was some one looking to replace the network indicator applet of course its not called that | 02:31 |
| TheGoof | ok, so it is a matter of better softwarer driver support | 02:31 |
| bazhang | djskidd, they thought you were on debian, which you said you were, here earlier, and then in #debian | 02:31 |
| djskidd | s good/< >\ | 02:31 |
| TheGoof | ok now thanks... now i am seeing the bull in the eye | 02:31 |
| Kronsby | ahhhhhhhh ok wow I was just not sure what was going on. Sorry! | 02:31 |
| Kronsby | why does xchat never remember my nickname and what not? | 02:32 |
| djskidd | Okay... | 02:32 |
| robin0800 | Kronsby, but you will need gnome tweak tool to theme unity | 02:32 |
| djskidd | So I am on Ubuntu and want to get my flashdisk's SD<something> command | 02:32 |
| zykotick9 | bluelight, if okular is a built in package you should have close to nothing to worry about. But i have no personal knowledge of what okular is... | 02:33 |
| djskidd | Like sda, sdb, sdc. | 02:33 |
| Kronsby | I do not want unity. I just switched from classic to unity for a second and HATED it. I do not think I can do it... | 02:33 |
| bazhang | djskidd, the uuid? | 02:33 |
| djskidd | Yah | 02:33 |
| bazhang | or the partition scheme djskidd | 02:33 |
| vehemoth | gaelfx: skype has a 64bit version now | 02:33 |
| Glowball | I'm having troubles with my internet lately, and I noticed I got an update for dhcp3-client and dhcp3-common on August 16. Is it possible that is related? Problem is: if I try to force the version of dhcp3-common down to the previous one, Synaptic forces me to remove dhcp3-client and ubuntu-minimal. How can I solve this? | 02:33 |
| djskidd | The SD* name like sdb | 02:34 |
| gaelfx | vehemoth: that's news to me | 02:34 |
| djskidd | sda1 | 02:34 |
| bazhang | djskidd, sudo fdisk -l | 02:34 |
| TheGoof | it surer is downloading slowly ..l. it can't me my isp, i hope (scumcast ... i mean comcast) bedause it says 7minutes for only 600MB that is insanely slow!!! | 02:34 |
| bluelight | zykotick9: i am seeking the address of the repository that will alow me to install okular :) thats all. i am taking your warning about possable conflicts with updates... | 02:34 |
| zykotick9 | bluelight, natty | 02:34 |
| djskidd | brb, going to pastebin | 02:35 |
| Kronsby | robin0800, Genome 3 looks a bit better than Unity | 02:35 |
| Glowball | TheGoof: Almost 1.5MB/s insanely slow? You're just spoiled, really. | 02:35 |
| bluelight | zykotick9: i do not actually care what version. i chose natty because it has the version of okular i am using on my laptop... this way edited files should be ok between the laptop and netbook | 02:35 |
| Glowball | TheGoof: I'm on 0.5MB/s max.. :( | 02:36 |
| MauriceJ | Ubuntu 10.04.1 Hello, I recently changed the colour in my gnome panel but the parts where Applications, Places, the time, etc show up are still the default theme. Is there any way to get those to be the same colour as the rest of the panel? | 02:36 |
| TheGoof | Glowball : oh nok i'm use to downlaoed 600mb in about 1 to 2 minutes | 02:36 |
| TheGoof | no spoiled just that ubuntu site god aweful slow | 02:36 |
| TheGoof | .5mb/s ? damn, i'd blow my brains out | 02:37 |
| gaelfx | TheGoof: try the .torrent instead | 02:37 |
| MauriceJ | 600 megs in 1 to 2 minutes? That's nearly as fast as over a LAN. | 02:37 |
| Lucid1 | Evening | 02:38 |
| Glowball | TheGoof: Yea, like I said, you're spoiled :P | 02:38 |
| nibor | hey guys i was wondering if you could tell me how to edit my xconfig | 02:38 |
| MauriceJ | Spoiled, big time. | 02:38 |
| nibor | i have dual monitors, i set them up a long time ago, but now i want to switch them and i cant remember how to get the one on the left to the right and the one on the right to the left | 02:38 |
| nibor | any thoughbs? | 02:38 |
| vehemoth | nibor: settings; preferences; monitors | 02:39 |
| vehemoth | nibor: sorry, system;preferences;monitors | 02:39 |
| bluelight | does any one know what the address is for the natty repository ? | 02:39 |
| nibor | i tried that but i have the ati catylist running it so i cant use those preferences | 02:40 |
| zykotick9 | vehemoth, that works of opensource drivers only BTW. nibor | 02:40 |
| robin0800 | djskidd, it is sudo -c "fdisk -l" then hit return and it will ask for your password | 02:40 |
| nibor | and when i click on monitors it says RANDR etension is not present | 02:41 |
| djskidd | I got it | 02:41 |
| Lucid1 | Running into a few issues. When using either Ubuntu Software manager or Syntamic package manager, my DL's either flow at around 20/b per second or will not DL at all. Any ideas? | 02:42 |
| Lucid1 | If i jump into window's, they fly by. | 02:42 |
| djskidd | Alright, I am running a command given to me | 02:43 |
| djskidd | and it says permission denied | 02:43 |
| djskidd | cat debianlivediskfilename.iso > /dev/sdc | 02:43 |
| robin0800 | Kronsby, it does but have you registered with freenode? | 02:44 |
| djskidd | only the name for the ISO is different and it's actually an IMG\ | 02:44 |
| djskidd | only the name for the ISO is different and it's actually an IMG | 02:44 |
| Kronsby | ahhh nope... sorry i am dumb | 02:44 |
| Lucid1 | Running into a few issues. When using either Ubuntu Software manager or Syntamic package manager, my DL's either flow at around 20/b per second or will not DL at all. Any ideas how to increace DL rate or general TSing steps to work out kinks? | 02:45 |
| djskidd | How do I run cat debianlivediskfilename.iso > /dev/sdc as root? | 02:46 |
| === Merdam is now known as Mierda | ||
| === Mierda is now known as Merdam | ||
| aeon-ltd | djskidd: using sudo or log in as root | 02:47 |
| zykotick9 | djskidd, fyi iso != IMG - they aren't the same | 02:47 |
| wildgoose | nibor: xrandr | 02:47 |
| djskidd | so add sudo before that command? | 02:48 |
| Lucid1 | No advice? | 02:48 |
| zykotick9 | djskidd, gnu/linux can't mount IMG files the same way as ISOs | 02:48 |
| vehemoth | Lucid1: is that the download speed inside synaptic? | 02:49 |

| fayimora | any help???? | 02:51 |
| djskidd | If there is, I hope it's not another 1hr 15min DL. | 02:51 |
| vehemoth | zykotick9: better than seeking ubuntu support in debian XD | 02:51 |
| bazhang | Mic00001, hello | 02:51 |
| Mic00001 | i have ubuntu | 02:51 |
| Mic00001 | yes me <- | 02:51 |
| xangua | djskidd: just use unetbootin | 02:51 |
| zykotick9 | vehemoth, that's common :P | 02:51 |
| fayimora | any help???? | 02:51 |
| Mic00001 | and for some reason there is no harddisk space left | 02:51 |
| djskidd | @zykotick9, I'm in #ubuntu and #debian both. | 02:51 |
| vehemoth | Lucid1: do you use wireless? | 02:51 |
| Mic00001 | is there a folder for temp stored files ? | 02:51 |
| bazhang | fayimora, ##hardware not here | 02:51 |
| MauriceJ | Mic00001: /tmp | 02:51 |
| nibor | what is xrandr | 02:51 |
| Lucid1 | vehemoth: I do.. | 02:52 |
| fayimora | bazhang: ok thanks | 02:52 |
| Mic00001 | MauriceJ can i delete everything inside it ? | 02:52 |
| bazhang | Mic00001, wubi install? | 02:52 |
| bluelight | does any one know what addresses are used to add ubuntu repositories to synaptic ? | 02:52 |
| MauriceJ | Mic00001: I don't know. Hopefully somebody else does. | 02:52 |
| Mic00001 | what is wubie install? | 02:52 |
| djskidd | xangua: how do I do that? | 02:52 |
| vehemoth | Lucis1: do you use propriety drivers? | 02:52 |
| MauriceJ | Mic00001: Meaning are you using a USB pendrive ubuntu? | 02:52 |
| bazhang | Mic00001, from inside windows | 02:53 |
| * MauriceJ shuts up now. | 02:53 | |
| bazhang | bluelight, sure. take a look at /etc/apt/sources.list | 02:53 |
| zykotick9 | bluelight, seriously, /etc/apt/source.list does control apt/aptitude/synaptic/U.S.C | 02:54 |
| clop2 | my xdvi has no menu to let me zoom ... any ideas? | 02:54 |
| zykotick9 | typo above ^^ bazhang has correct filename! | 02:54 |
| vehemoth | lucid1: do you use non-free drivers for your wireless device? | 02:55 |
| Lucid1 | Vehemoth: My own drivers | 02:56 |
| Pancakez | hello, I'm trying to setup a samba share. Everything's working, except whenever I create a directory it's made with 755 permissions, and files are made with 644. I've tried changing the relevant portion of the config to this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/681561/ , but it doesn't seem to make a difference, anybody know how to fix this? | 02:57 |
| Lucid1 | vehemoth: They were detected upon install with 11.04. | 02:57 |
| Kronsby | Ok so Who thinks I should do beta 1 of 11.10? | 02:57 |
| bazhang | Kronsby, dont poll here | 02:57 |
| Pancakez | I"m trying to change both permissions to 775, it doesn't seem to work :P | 02:57 |
| Kronsby | yes sir | 02:57 |
| Kronsby | bazhang, sorry | 02:57 |
| vehemoth | Lucid1: so you didn't click the install non-free thing then; well in that case have you tried it with a cable? | 02:58 |
| Lucid1 | vehemoth: I have not yet. It might be my only option but if i swtich to Windows 7 which i have installed on the same machine, installs fly by at the typical HS cable modem speeds (100MB - 750MB) | 03:00 |
| zykotick9 | Kronsby, the only point of running +1 is to report bugs, do you want to do that? if so by all means install the beta version. | 03:01 |
| Lucid1 | Right now I am looking at Bits. Not mega bits. | 03:01 |
| vehemoth | Lucid1: I was saying that to test where the problem is, if it's fine on cable then post on http://ubuntuforums.org or similar with details from lspci (if inbuilt) or lsusb (if addon usb device) | 03:02 |
| Lucid1 | vehemoth: Sounds like good advice. Appreciate the support. | 03:02 |
| jll | I can't get sound with any of my games. help. thanks | 03:03 |
| vehemoth | jil: are they native linux games, and does sound work with other applications | 03:03 |
| octocpp | what is the name of a xscreensaver that just uses your pictures as a slideshow? | 03:04 |
| jll | yes on the other applications but the game is metal blob solid. it worked fine with fusia linux but now that I installed ubuntu, the sound for this game won't work. | 03:04 |

| jll | metal blob solid | 03:12 |
| variable | zykotick9: I meant, I knew it installed a driver, but I wasn't sure if it did more than editing xorg.conf. As you could from my cloak I prefer fully-free code anyways. This is for a friend :-p | 03:12 |

| kasansweat | urlin2u, right, but that's for FILES. I'll be more specific: does anyone know a good way to find duplicate directories in a hard drive, in such a way that it only reports the largest possible directories? (e.g. if /foo/mydir and /bar/mydir are identical, it reports those, but NOT /foo/mydir/subdir and /bar/mydir/subdir?) | 04:06 |
| doctari | urlin2u can you helpme? | 04:07 |
| urlin2u | doctari, I can try what is up? | 04:08 |
| Tropolis | wildbat, I don't want to make the account password-less. I want to give it an extremely strong password, but I want the specific account to _only_ have the ability to login via public key auth. While still allowing other users to have password-based auth | 04:10 |
| doctari | ok urlin2u I'm having a problem with Movie player | 04:10 |
| urlin2u | doctari, what is the evidence of a problem? | 04:11 |
| doctari | anytime I play a dvd, if any dialog boxes are opened for any reason that part of the screen stays blanked eved after the dialog box closes | 04:11 |
| Mic00001 | hello | 04:11 |
| Mic00001 | bazhang | 04:11 |
| urlin2u | doctari, not sure there, I use vlc, or the Mplayer skin smplayer | 04:12 |
| doctari | sometimes urlin2u I have to totally close movie player and restart. I have to bw very careful what I do while the movie plays | 04:12 |
| Mic00001 | i have 1.2GB space left on my ubuntu and whenever i download anyting on firefox that space is taken by something | 04:12 |
| urlin2u | doctari, have you tried vlc, the totem=mplayer is a rather simple setup. | 04:12 |
| Mic00001 | it become less than 200MB | 04:12 |
| doctari | vlc has problems with keeping the audio in sync if you try to go to another part of the video | 04:12 |
| gaelfx | doctari: smplayer is pretty awesome | 04:13 |
| Mic00001 | why is this happening? | 04:13 |
| doctari | smplayer | 04:13 |
| doctari | isi smplayer in the repository? | 04:13 |
| gaelfx | doctari: it's a GUI for mplayer, and yes, it's in the repos | 04:13 |
| wildbat | Tropolis: passwordless mean impossible to login with password ~ , unless you need to remain the feature to login with password locally. passwordless stronger then any password. | 04:13 |
| urlin2u | doctari, yeah | 04:13 |
| Tropolis | Oh does it? | 04:14 |
| doctari | OK i'm installing smplayer now | 04:14 |
| Mic00001 | anyone in here cares to understand my problem? | 04:15 |
| doctari | sure shoot Mic00001 | 04:15 |
| Tropolis | wildbat, do I just create an account with no password? Or how do I do it | 04:15 |
| urlin2u | Mic00001, you need more space that is way to small of a margin. | 04:15 |
| Mic00001 | doctari i'm downloading files using firefox to a shared harddisk on the local network | 04:16 |
| doctari | ok | 04:16 |
| Mic00001 | the problem the PC with ubuntu got only about 1.2GB space left | 04:16 |
| Mic00001 | so i'm not using the harddisk on that PC to store the files | 04:16 |
| Hot2Trot | what is the easiest way to make every virtual terminal I bring up automatically start screen? How can I start screen without an introductoin page? | 04:16 |
| Mic00001 | but whever i download anything on that PC using firefox the space is taken by something | 04:16 |
| doctari | yeah you may want to restrict your cache size to something smaller | 04:17 |
| urlin2u | Mic00001, you need more space that is way to small of a margin. | 04:17 |
| Tropolis | bbl | 04:17 |
| Mic00001 | urlin2u what if it's a netbook? | 04:17 |
| Tropolis | thanks for suggestion wildbat | 04:17 |
| Mic00001 | old one with limited space | 04:17 |
| Mic00001 | you are welcome to buy me a bigger SSD | 04:17 |
| wildbat | Tropolis: you create the the account as normal ~ then ssh in and put in the key as needed , then exit out sudo passwd -d <USER> | 04:17 |
| urlin2u | Mic00001, how many gigs with the internal, is this a eeepc with the ssd ? | 04:18 |
| SirFunk | hey, so i'm upgrading from 11.04 -> 11.10 beta on a netbook i use for messing around on... it has taken about 12 hours so far and says it has about 4 hours left... this is REDICULOUS... there is about 1200mb free memory and the cpu doesn't seem maxed, what could be causing the slowdown? | 04:18 |
| doctari | I would lower my cache size and change my default download directory to that network drive Mic00001 | 04:18 |
| Spaceman_ | can't wait for those SSDs to get cheaper | 04:18 |
| Mic00001 | urlin2u yeah eeepc | 04:18 |
| Mic00001 | guys guys i want a solution not an opinion | 04:18 |
| Mic00001 | i'm not storing anyting on that PC. i used shared hdd on a LAN | 04:19 |
| urlin2u | Mic00001, so a 4gig ssd and a 8 gig I think? install bleachbit and clean out the cruft, and as suggested use the external as the download if not already. | 04:19 |

| RangerMauve | Hey, I was wondering which Ubuntu distro would be best for ruinning on a virtual machine. I'm looking for something with few frills. I mostly just want it for testing Java stuff. | 04:29 |
| Aple | So if I go ahead and navigate to the actual file, it sets up the association with that file (inconvenient, but works). Now, it also adds another "sublime_text" file type to that "Open With" dialog. | 04:29 |
| RangerMauve | Or should I look at a different OS altogether? As I said, I need something with support for Java. | 04:29 |
| Aple | So I've set up html, css, php, python to open with it, and I have 4 instances of "sublime_text" on that Open With dialog. | 04:29 |
| Aple | RangerMauve: I don't know much about Java, but I've got a virtualenv with Python on Ubuntu Wubi and it works fine | 04:30 |
| Aple | I'm pretty sure Ubuntu could handle the Java stuff just the same. Any distro would be fine IMO. But again, I'm a newb who doesn't know much other than it works fine with Python. | 04:31 |
| RangerMauve | Aple: I was looking at running Ubuntu within the virtual machine running on my windows compy. | 04:32 |

My laptop has a wifi card and I can connect but I would like to connect both to the internet with the wifi card and to the LAN with an ethernet cable. Is there anything that I can do? | 04:38 |
| daniel | is it even possible? | 04:38 |
| Dr_Willis | daniel: trying to gain extra speed? or just have one as a fallback? | 04:39 |
| * Dr_Willis rere-rereads what daniel said.. | 04:39 | |
| SIFTU | daniel: yes it's possibe, just need to understand routing.. | 04:40 |
| daniel | Dr_Willis, I have a network with other pcs, printer, etc so I just want to be able to use both network cards at the same time | 04:40 |
| SIFTU | daniel: i.e. set your default router to the wifi cards, and use static routes for your local subnets | 04:40 |
| HypothesisFrog | hi. I've got a problem with Xorg using 99% of CPU. | 04:40 |
| daniel | SIFTU, :( I have no idea how to do it... Any webpage/tutorial that may tell me how to do it? | 04:41 |
| TheGoof | hey, can ubuntu safely torrent ... that is run tor ? | 04:42 |
| Dr_Willis | daniel: i think you need to clarify your network layout and what you want to acomplish a bit more.. | 04:42 |
| Dr_Willis | TheGoof: theres dozens of torrent clients out for ubuntu and linux. thats not related to 'tor' at all. :) | 04:43 |
| zHammeRz | Hi everyone | 04:43 |
| TheGoof | well, tor says not to use it to bitorrent | 04:43 |
| TheGoof | because it will flood servers but they have a bitorrent client I thunk | 04:44 |
| rww | No, they don't. | 04:44 |
| rww | Ubuntu can run Tor. I don't intend on telling you how, because I enjoy tor servers not being laggy from silly people using them for Bittorrent. | 04:44 |
| Dr_Willis | TheGoof: correct you should not use Tor for Torrenting. It will be very slow. | 04:44 |
| SIFTU | Dr_Willis: daniels explanation sounds pretty straight forward.. his LAN has no internet access but he need to use it, but his wifi/wimax has internet which he would like to use of the same machine | 04:44 |
| TheGoof | by tor i mean tor browser | 04:44 |
| Dr_Willis | TheGoof: Tor is not a browser... so now you have us all confused | 04:44 |
| TheGoof | Tor Browser bundle? | 04:45 |
| RangerMauve | There's a modified firefox that automatically uses tor for you to browse | 04:45 |

| tbocs | Aple, yes | 05:00 |
| tbocs | Aple, yes workspace | 05:00 |
| Aple | dnivra: Where can you change keyboard shortcuts? Without Compiz. I don't think Compiz works with Ubuntu Classic | 05:01 |
| Aple | Well, not the keyboard shortcut thing anyway | 05:01 |
| zHammeRz | Aple, it's basically multiple desktops. Makes things simple as you can set a specific set of programs to one window | 05:01 |
| Aple | Neat. | 05:01 |

| zHammeRz | silvertip257, I dunno I never tried...desktop1 is fine for me | 05:02 |
| silvertip257 | ah | 05:02 |
| tbocs | Unity the same, gnome the same | 05:02 |
| silvertip257 | hah - might be way too restrictive and annoying to set an app to only use one desktop - zHammeRz | 05:03 |
| dnivra | tbocs: but the menu isn't there is it? "Applications, Places and System"? | 05:03 |
| tbocs | dnivra, yes, but you can search it in the dash | 05:03 |
| zHammeRz | I just moved it to #2 and it was just fine. What are you trying to do? | 05:03 |
| tbocs | dnivra, press the "windows" button and it will pop out, then search anything you want | 05:03 |
| tbocs | dnivra, in Gnome 3 it is the same thing. But I really like Gnome 3 | 05:04 |
| silvertip257 | zHammeRz: was saying that it might be nice that you pre-configure which application can use which desktop ... as in firefox always uses #2 and never the others, but in hindsight that would be utterly stupid | 05:04 |
| dnivra | tbocs: yeah I'm familiar that feature. And I'm a KDE user. Least for sometime now :) | 05:04 |
| tbocs | dnivra, how do you like KDE? | 05:04 |
| zHammeRz | silvertip257, ahh as far as I can tell the apps will launch in whatever desktop you're in when you click it | 05:04 |

| tbocs | zUR05Lb, welcome. Same for me minutes ago. | 05:05 |

| tajys | The install seemed to go fine, no errors... I just can't find it to run it =/ | 05:23 |
| spec_ | that's weird. i installed nv's dev driver for cuda and rebooted. now ubuntu gnome has a windows-7 style app launch sidebar on the left. | 05:23 |

| Dr_Willis | tajys: use synaptic, examine the packages contents. see what files it installed.. | 05:24 |
| tbocs | spec_, because it's Unity. | 05:24 |
| theadmin | spec_: loool, this is Ubuntu's new GUI, Unity. It didn't work because your old drivers provided no 3D accel | 05:24 |

| ubottu | spec_: The default interface in Ubuntu 11.04 is !Unity. To switch back to regular !GNOME: log out, click your username, click the Session box at the bottom of the screen, and select "Ubuntu Classic". | 05:24 |
| tbocs | spec_, it (probably) means the Unity UI knows your GPU supports it | 05:24 |
| spec_ | are there rotating cubes and a thumping techno soundtrack? | 05:24 |
| tbocs | spec_, but the most important identity of Cuda is that you can see a splash screen of the Nvidia right before login screen | 05:25 |
| spec_ | ya geesh, subtle guys. | 05:25 |
| tbocs | spec_, so you got that? run some cool cuda examples then! | 05:25 |

| crshbndct | if i have 11.04 installed with wubi, why cant i see the drive its installed to? | 05:27 |
| spec_ | libcuda.so is now in /usr/lib.. i can actually link my code. | 05:27 |
| spec_ | that wasn't so bad. | 05:27 |
| urlin2u | crshbndct, it is in media, wubi is just a file in windows. | 05:27 |
| tbocs | crshbndct, because Wubi allows you to store everything ubuntu file system into a file on windows | 05:27 |
| tajys | It says usr/games.... so.... You know what, I'll be back I'm going to try restarting and see what happens | 05:27 |
| tajys | Thanks for the help ^.^; | 05:27 |
| urlin2u | media I think anyway. crshbndct | 05:28 |
| spec_ | is it just me or does the interface feel less responsive with unity? | 05:28 |
| urlin2u | spec_, what's your specs | 05:29 |
| tbocs | spec_, (probably) because Unity use more power to render its beautiful UI. | 05:29 |
| Dr_Willis | tajys: right click, properties.. or somthing like that.. shows what files it installed. | 05:29 |
| spec_ | core2duo and some relatively crappy nv gpu like an 8600m. | 05:29 |
| tbocs | spec_ no wonder ... | 05:29 |
| urlin2u | spec_, what about ram? | 05:30 |
| spec_ | 4gb | 05:30 |
| tbocs | spec_ well 4gb is not bad. mine is 4gb too ... | 05:30 |
| Dr_Willis | tajys: you may need to use the full path to the binary it installed.. some old-skool progs install to the /usr/games dir that mayno tbe in the default paths | 05:30 |
| crshbndct | i have the following setup. 1st partition is linux, 50gb(running arch, but wanna switch to ubuntu) 2nd is windows, 30gb, and the remaining 2.7Tb is a storage partition. i decided to give the 11.10 nightly build a try, and installed it with wubi. | 05:30 |
| urlin2u | spec_, you running 64 bit? | 05:30 |
| spec_ | i'm guessing unity uses vram window compositing like aero does? | 05:30 |
| tbocs | spec_, probably core 2 is the problem. | 05:30 |
| spec_ | 32bit | 05:30 |
| crshbndct | i installed it using wubi to the 2.7tb partition. and now i cant see the big partition | 05:31 |
| tbocs | spec_, you can install a unity 2d. | 05:31 |
| urlin2u | crshbndct, #ubuntu+1 is your channel. | 05:31 |
| crshbndct | ok thanks urlin2u | 05:31 |

| crshbndct | ahhhh thanks | 05:32 |

| urlin2u | tbocs, "D' | 05:32 |
| urlin2u | :D | 05:32 |
| tbocs | spec_, a little with OpenCV. | 05:32 |
| crshbndct | thanks guys. i will give the ocelot a try and maybe switch over if it works. natty was a nightmare for me | 05:32 |
| spec_ | tbocs - i've started writing a cuda tutorial http://www.moderngpu.com/ it's basically case studies of advanced kernels. my first one is a radix sort that is especially high performance. very scan-centric tutorial, focusing on gpgpu strategy rather than just stuff like using the API | 05:35 |
| Mneumonic | What is the consensus on the beta of 11.10? 11.04 is nothing but trouble on my laptop | 05:35 |

| zHammeRz | 11.04 has run great so far on my amd 6 core system. I have 4gb of memory and I used the 32bit recommended version and the kernel had PAE enabled by default so it sees all my ram | 05:37 |
| HypothesisFrog | tbocs haven't tried rebooting. Just noticed that according to top, xorg is on 98% since last night. | 05:37 |

| spec_ | when writing makefiles, how do you suggest separating debug and release builds ? | 05:40 |
| spec_ | i usually use VC and it takes care of all that for me | 05:41 |
| stonecold | have a good day | 05:41 |
| tbocs | spec_, do you use CMake? i think that makes your life easier. | 05:41 |
| sgo11 | hi, I have been asking this question for some days. After I use a projector and use nvidia-settings to configure twinview and 1024x768, my laptop boots to 1024x768 from that point on. I have to manually use nvidia-settings to change it after reboot. how to fix this problem? I tried (1) rm xorg.conf. (2) rm ~/nvidia-settings-rc (3) sudo nvidia-xconfig . no luck. | 05:41 |
| spec_ | hm so i hear.. but i'd rather just stick with gnu make since i've been reading the o'reilly book and have some understanding now. | 05:42 |
| lighta | what's your make issue spec_ ? | 05:42 |
| Polah | zHammeRz, 64-bit architectures also typically run a bit quicker than 32-bit. | 05:43 |
| spec_ | lighta ahh well in general it's how to cleanly support parallel directories and binaries for debug and release builds | 05:43 |
| tajys | Dr_Willis, I tried doing it from the instructions on the tinyfugue page, but then I found something that said I could do "sudo apt-get install tf", so I tried that, too =/ I see a usr/games/tf | 05:43 |
| Dr_Willis | !info tf | 05:43 |
| ubottu | tf (source: tf): Tinyfugue MUD client for TinyMUDs, DikuMUDs, and LPMUDs. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:4.0s1-17 (natty), package size 251 kB, installed size 856 kB | 05:43 |
| theadmin | spec_: https://pzt.me/6bir@raw - something like that. | 05:43 |
| Dr_Willis | tajys: so is that /usr/games/tf a dir? or a binary? | 05:44 |
| Dr_Willis | tajys: try just rynning 'tf' from a terminal? | 05:44 |
| zHammeRz | Polah, true...but I have 1333 memory, 6core cpu, and a solid state drive. If it is faster I most likely won't notice it unless I have a millisecond timer or something :) | 05:44 |
| lighta | ah yeah hmm I'm only making it quite simple, with different states, like tags/trunk etc for those case. | 05:44 |
| spec_ | theadmin - it's ok that those are phony rules and not actual targets? | 05:45 |
| theadmin | spec_: No, that's exactly the target specification | 05:45 |
| spec_ | release is the target specification, not a phony? | 05:46 |
| tajys | Dr_Willis, I... don't know how to tell if it's a dir or a binary (I haven't used my linux box for much more than internetsing and wordprocessing stuff so I'm kind of a newb) | 05:46 |
| theadmin | spec_: Well, yeah... | 05:46 |
| spec_ | theadmin hm ok. i'll keep reading this book until it makes sense to me :) | 05:46 |
| Dr_Willis | tajys: http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/i386/tf/filelist 'tf' is the binary you run it seems... | 05:47 |
| theadmin | spec_: It's also good to have a "clean" target with something like "find $PWD -iname '*.out' -delete" as the command | 05:47 |
| tbocs | spec_, never actually use a makelist before, so sorry. | 05:47 |
| i_is_broke | can someone tell me the proper way of shuting off autologin. cause its about to cause me to switch distros. | 05:47 |
| Dr_Willis | i_is_broke: theres a gdm config item in the menus you an use to disable it.. | 05:47 |
| Polah | zHammeRz: Oh sure, it's not noticeably faster but it's a bit more efficient and quicker. To a computer it's faster, even if you don't notice. There's also benefits from having more available virtual memory, someone could probably link you to an article for that | 05:47 |
| theadmin | i_is_broke: System -> Administration -> Login screen? | 05:47 |
| j_c_xut | i_is_broke: set correctly upon installation to begin with. | 05:47 |
| i_is_broke | been to both . thank you. | 05:48 |
| Dr_Willis | i_is_broke: thats how ive enabled and disabled it just recently... | 05:48 |
| Dr_Willis | theres alwyas the gdm config files in /etc/gdm* i think | 05:48 |
| Dr_Willis | assuming you are using gdm.. | 05:48 |
| zHammeRz | Can anyone recommend a hardware temp monitoring suite? | 05:48 |

| Kronsby | is there any way to play netflix instantly on ubuntu? | 05:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Kronsby: Not really. They dont support linux yet. | 05:57 |
| zHammeRz | When I ran windows I used cpu temp programs and it said basically the same thing give or take a few 'c'. Full prime95 it only gets to 37c. The H80 is a great cpu cooler. | 05:57 |
| Kronsby | thanks Dr_Willis | 05:57 |
| Mneumonic | I use Virtualbox to run windows in a virtualbox and then netflix through that | 05:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Kronsby: vbox + windows xp. is one way to 'do it' but its annoying. | 05:58 |
| Mneumonic | works great | 05:58 |
| Kronsby | :( dumb people. Does hulu support linux? | 05:58 |
| Kronsby | ah thanks | 05:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Kronsby: Hulu works fine. | 05:58 |
| Kronsby | i am dual booting so that works | 05:58 |
| tbocs | Kronsby, yea, i have done that before . | 05:58 |
| Dr_Willis | Kronsby: as does the Amazon Prime. | 05:58 |
| Kronsby | AH i have amazon prime | 05:58 |
| Kronsby | sweet I always forgetn about that | 05:58 |
| tbocs | Mneumonic, is it because Netflix requires Microsoft Silverlight? | 05:58 |
| tbocs | Dr_Willis, yea Amzn and hulu works great. | 05:59 |
| Kronsby | Thanks Dr_Willis! | 05:59 |
| Dr_Willis | Been playing with screen recorders today also. heh.. | 05:59 |
| daniel | where can I find a tutorial on how to create a LAN without internet connection for a couple of computers with ubuntu and windows? | 06:00 |
| Dr_Willis | daniel: just plug them in.. they are networked.... | 06:00 |
| tbocs | !LAN | 06:00 |
| Dr_Willis | daniel: you will want one dhcp server on the home network I imagine. or a router to handle it. | 06:00 |
| daniel | Dr_Willis, I think so... how can I do it? | 06:00 |
| tbocs | daniel, yea just buy a router and hook every computer up with that | 06:01 |
| Dr_Willis | daniel: do what? Plug them in? get router.. plug in cables... | 06:01 |
| Dr_Willis | or use a switch/hub and set up the linux box with a dhcp server.. | 06:01 |
| daniel | I have a switch | 06:01 |
| tbocs | and you may would like to set a static IP for every machine. | 06:01 |
| Dr_Willis | or set them all static ips and no dhcp needed. | 06:01 |
| Dr_Willis | easier to use dhcp. | 06:01 |
| daniel | can I use a thin client to set it up as a dhcp server? | 06:01 |
| bobweaver | almoxarife: yes gnome and kde | 06:02 |
| Dr_Willis | can you install a dhcp server on it daniel? | 06:02 |
| bobweaver | I think that theadmin is writing script | 06:02 |
| Dr_Willis | thin clients normally dont do server tasks. :) | 06:02 |
| daniel | I dont know | 06:02 |
| almoxarife | bobweaver: thnks, | 06:02 |
| bobweaver | almoxarife: no thank you | 06:02 |
| daniel | I just want to learn how to setup my own network | 06:02 |
| tbocs | !networksetup | 06:03 |
| daniel | is ubotu asleep? hehe | 06:03 |
| spec_ | ok, last thing is that i still can't ssh to my new ubuntu install. i think it may be a router setting but am not sure. generally can't identify that machine from my windows box on the same router. | 06:03 |
| Dr_Willis | daniel: theres dozens of 'networking for beginner' sites out there.. you allready have been told the basics. | 06:03 |
| tbocs | daniel, i think you really need to refer to a tutorial, pretty general way. | 06:03 |
| urlin2u | !tmi | 06:03 |
| ubottu | Um thanks... We *really* did not need to know that... | 06:03 |
| almoxarife | bobweaver: fine then, does remote desktop have a built in time out? | 06:03 |
| Dr_Willis | spec_: try sshing in to its ip# not its name perhps. | 06:04 |
| bobweaver | umm not sure I use sysv-rc-conf to shut down vnc | 06:04 |
| Kronsby | Dr_Willis, Just found out students get free 1 month of Hulu Plus :D | 06:05 |
| spec_ | dr willis - ah that is interesting. by ip it does work. | 06:05 |
| Dr_Willis | spec_: i never use ssh and the hostname :) | 06:05 |
| spec_ | why is that | 06:06 |
| Dr_Willis | spec_: at least not from a windows box../putty | 06:06 |
| spec_ | i chose a cool hostname tho i feel bad i gotta type in dotted quads. | 06:06 |
| Dr_Willis | the hostname is discovered via windbind/samba ibelive.. so if you dont have samba running.. well. itcant discover it. | 06:06 |
| tbocs | Kronsby, thanks for letting me know (off-topic though_) | 06:06 |
| Dr_Willis | edit your hosts file i guess.. | 06:06 |
| Lasers | (or ~/.ssh/config) | 06:07 |
| bobweaver | i could be wrong sudo /ect/init.d/ssh start | 06:08 |
| spec_ | lasers - you mean do that on the client's .ssh/config? | 06:08 |
| tbocs | spec_, yea i think you can set static ip and change hosts file | 06:08 |
| Lasers | spec_: If you edit your ssh config, you could ssh into a particular machine/server by just typign something like this "ssh xps" or "ssh mia" | 06:08 |
| Lasers | spec_: Very easier than "ssh chris@<ip/.local>" | 06:09 |
| tool_kit | anyone with extra shell? | 06:09 |
| spec_ | oic. | 06:09 |
| bobweaver | do you have to start ssh before you can use ?? | 06:10 |
| bobweaver | or is it in boot | 06:10 |
| bobweaver | and is 22 open all the time ? | 06:10 |
| Lasers | bobweaver: That machine need to be running sshd if you want to connect to that machine. Ubuntu generally start it automatically. | 06:10 |
| bobweaver | Lasers: what about ports | 06:10 |
| bobweaver | they need to be open on router ? | 06:11 |
| Lasers | bobweaver: Port forwarding if you want to access your machine from outside. | 06:11 |
| mordof | Just went through the process of installing gnome3 on 11.04.. Now when it boots I get a black screen. Alt+f keys bring to TTY cli .. Can anyone help get a GUI back? | 06:11 |
| Lasers | bobweaver: Otherwise, local network -- Is fine. | 06:11 |
| Lasers | mordof: Try ALT+7 for GUi | 06:11 |
| Lasers | F7* | 06:11 |
| tbocs | mordof, i had that same thing too. that probably because ubuntu cannot support your GPU driver | 06:11 |
| bobweaver | mordof: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 06:11 |
| spec_ | oh.. :( i can ssh into my ubuntu notebook only when it's physically plugged into the router. over wifi it doesn't find the machine. | 06:12 |
| Lasers | spec_: Wifi probably gave your machine different IP number? | 06:12 |
| tbocs | mordof, wait! if the screen is black, simply use the key to increase the brightness | 06:12 |
| theadmin | bobweaver: Can you reply to my question in the PM session? | 06:12 |
| spec_ | nope it's the same one. | 06:12 |
| spec_ | i think it's some router thing. | 06:12 |
| mordof | Lasers, bobweaver: no such luck. Both don't work | 06:13 |
| tbocs | mordof, adjust brightnesss ... | 06:13 |
| mordof | Alt+f7 gives black screen and gdm restart just flickers, states a restart, and brings back to tty1 | 06:14 |
| tbocs | mordof, by the way what GPU do you have? | 06:14 |
| Lasers | !gnome3 | mordof | 06:15 |
| bobweaver | mordof: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 06:15 |
| spec_ | ehh ubuntu doesn't install vim? that's funny package selection. | 06:15 |
| ubottu | mordof: Gnome 3 is not currently supported on Ubuntu. A PPA for natty is available at https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3 but these packages are EXPERIMENTAL and UNSTABLE, will break Unity and possibly other parts of your system, and cannot be downgraded safely. | 06:15 |
| bobweaver | mordof: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 06:15 |
| mordof | Tbocs...... Wtf? Brightness has absolutely nothing to do with it. Gtx460xt I believe. Worked just fine in gnome2 | 06:15 |
| ardeex | Test | 06:15 |
| Lasers | mordof: You would be better off testing it in VirtualBox (or using Gnome3's ISO ; or use distros that explicitly supports Gnome3 already) | 06:15 |
| urlin2u | ardeex, it be working. :D | 06:15 |
| mordof | Lasers: greeaT.. | 06:15 |
| mordof | Lasers: so I'm essentially screwed -.-; | 06:16 |
| Lasers | mordof: http://gnome3.org/tryit.html | 06:16 |

| erry | ps-ax, ok, right click desktop -> change background, click theme, and drag the theme into that window | 06:32 |
| damno | Dr_Willis: its happening with all the theme archives | 06:32 |
| erry | iirc that does it :> | 06:32 |
| ps-ax | OK | 06:32 |
| Dr_Willis | ps-ax: theres 'theme' parts. and then theres complete themes.. you can put them in your users ~/.themes directory | 06:32 |
| Dr_Willis | ps-ax: and not mess with the system wide theme dir. | 06:33 |
| damno | Dr_Willis: I'm trying with theme parts | 06:33 |
| ps-ax | ha.. worked | 06:33 |

| ps-ax | works* | 06:33 |
| ps-ax | thanks | 06:33 |
| bobweaver | mordof: what is vga ? | 06:34 |
| damno | any idea? | 06:34 |
| Dr_Willis | damno: normally you can drag/drop the files onto the theme-appearance tool window and it will copy them to the right .theme dir/place | 06:34 |
| bobweaver | mordof: lspci -nn | grep VGA | 06:34 |
| damno | Dr_Willis: ok..let me see. I was trying the import button import | 06:34 |
| Dr_Willis | damno: but as i mentioned.. emerald is basically dead. its not worth putting much effort into. | 06:35 |

| Dr_Willis | Python is very handy, and easy to learn thebasics. and has the power to grow with your skill. | 06:43 |
| zHammeRz | spec, are you getting a different subnet on wireless vs wired? | 06:43 |
| _r0x_ | lnxn3rd: quit the hacking stuff and get a real job | 06:44 |
| Dr_Willis | spec_: you are using the right ip# ? the pc mayhave a differnt ip# for the wireless and the wired connection. | 06:44 |
| spec_ | same ip each time. | 06:44 |
| spec_ | 10.108 | 06:44 |
| Dr_Willis | spec_: that is weird.. i alwayshave differnt ip's | 06:44 |
| Dr_Willis | spec_: in fact.. my pcs canbe connected to wired and wireless at the same time.. | 06:44 |
| spec_ | it's on wired right now... at least the ubuntu bar at the top shows eth0 connection. | 06:45 |

| shaunsingh14 | hi | 06:46 |
| shaunsingh14 | you know this place isn't as lively as the Debian IRC room. | 06:47 |
| shaunsingh14 | So. . . who here has contributed to the Ubuntu project? | 06:48 |
| spec_ | dr willis - ok when disconnected from eth0, putty definitely does not connect to the ubuntu machine over wifi | 06:49 |
| spec_ | my friend says it may be client isolation but i'm not sure how to determine that. | 06:49 |
| Dr_Willis | spec_: check the ip#. and see if ping works | 06:49 |
| kyfbnyfb | hy everybody | 06:49 |
| bobweaver | shaunsingh14: I have | 06:49 |
| spec_ | ping fails. | 06:49 |
| zHammeRz | spec, you sure your connected to the wifi | 06:49 |
| spec_ | ya i get lolcats. | 06:49 |
| learner | shaunsingh14, this is a support channel means this id not for chit chat...pls reffer channel rules | 06:50 |
| Dr_Willis | can the linux box ping the windows box spec_? | 06:50 |
| kyfbnyfb | what is this much intersting talking about ubuntu | 06:50 |
| kyfbnyfb | what is this much intersting in talkking about ubuntu | 06:50 |
| spec_ | dr willis nope. | 06:51 |
| spec_ | i'm guessing it's a router thing but really dunno. | 06:51 |
| _r0x_ | shaunsingh14, don't mind learner - he had one mai tai too many if you know what i mean | 06:51 |
| spec_ | you can smoke mai tai? | 06:51 |
| _r0x_ | spec, apparently | 06:52 |
| Dr_Willis | spec_: so the linux box can web surf when on wireless just fine? | 06:52 |
| spec_ | sure. | 06:52 |
| spec_ | i just can't putty into it. | 06:52 |
| zHammeRz | have the firewall on? | 06:52 |
| Dr_Willis | spec_: sounds like the router mayhave some security settings on the wirleess network. | 06:52 |
| spec_ | the router firewall is disabled. | 06:52 |
| _r0x_ | spec, what version of windows? | 06:53 |
| spec_ | 7 | 06:53 |
| zHammeRz | I meant the firewall on ubuntu? | 06:53 |
| spec_ | rox - i can putty into ubuntu when the ubuntu machine is plugged into the router, but not when it's on wifi. | 06:53 |
| spec_ | i dunno about the firewall on ubuntu | 06:53 |
| _r0x_ | must be an IP thing | 06:53 |
| _r0x_ | wifi is on another subnet | 06:53 |
| zHammeRz | sounds like the router is not routing one subnet to the other. Is it a router like a linksys or something or you have it set up for vlans? | 06:54 |
| learner | _r0x_, i only informed him tat this is a support channel...if he dint knew. | 06:54 |
| spec_ | trendnet | 06:54 |
| _r0x_ | learner - i'm just messing around - your nick is very telling | 06:55 |
| spec_ | it's 255.255.255.0 for both wifi and hard connection. | 06:55 |
| zHammeRz | that's the netmask | 06:55 |
| freeb0y | hey why when I log in it doesn't require a password? | 06:55 |
| spec_ | it's 192.168.10.x | 06:55 |
| _r0x_ | spec, is your ip the same on both wired and wifi? | 06:55 |
| spec_ | on wired it is given 10.109 and on wifi 10.108. | 06:56 |
| mordof | bobweaver: reinstalling drivers didn't do anything | 06:57 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm.. i wonder if the linux box can ping its own ip. :) ping 192.168.10.108 and 109 Just for laughs... | 06:57 |
| Dr_Willis | freeb0y: you set up autologin during the install.. | 06:57 |
| freeb0y | nope... | 06:57 |
| _r0x_ | Freeboy, you have a blank password | 06:58 |
| freeb0y | Dr_willis,through gui i checked the ask password on login screen box | 06:58 |
| spec_ | yah it can ping itself on the wifi. | 06:58 |

| morth | question - what is /media/system reserved for? | 08:33 |
| Stanley00 | morth: nothing, do you have any partition label system? | 08:33 |

| misaq | how to override file read-only attibute? | 08:34 |
| konr | In this step of the installation http://philscomputerrepair.com/images/ubuntu_08.jpg you can print the selected keyboard layout to check if it matches yours. How does the program generate these keyboards, or what program is this? | 08:35 |
| Polah | misaw: Use chmod to change permissions, or in the case of an NTFS drive you'll need to remount it with rw permissions | 08:35 |
| Stanley00 | misaq: if you need edit /etc/fstab, you need root private to do that | 08:36 |
| Stanley00 | misaq: try sudo nano /etc/fstab instead | 08:36 |
| Polah | konr: I've never heard of being able to print keyboard layouts at that point. You can type to test keys are correct. | 08:36 |
| misaq | Stanley00: Do you mean I need to logout and log back in as root? | 08:37 |
| konr | Polah: I think that after it guesses the keyboard layout, it prints it | 08:37 |
| Polah | misaq: No, use sudo to open a command-line text editor to edit /etc/fstab or gksudo to use a GUI editor to do it | 08:37 |
| konr | Polah: do you know what that program is called, so to find the source code? | 08:37 |
| najwa | hai u all | 08:37 |
| Polah | konr: No. I've never heard of the installer ever printing anything. | 08:37 |
| Stanley00 | misaq: no, just run sudo nano /etc/fstab or gksu gedit /etc/fstab to edit that file | 08:38 |
| konr | Print to the screen in a new window, of course | 08:38 |
| Polah | konr: Oh, just display the layout on screen? I thought you meant actual printing, like paper printing. | 08:38 |
| misaq | Stanley00 and Polah: o | 08:38 |
| misaq | ok | 08:38 |
| konr | Polah: haha, no | 08:38 |
| Polah | konr: System > Preferences > Keyboard shows a layout of the keyboard I think, but that's not in the installer. If you selected "Try Ubuntu" before "Install Ubuntu" you should be able to get to it | 08:39 |

| === damagednoob_impo is now known as damagednoob | ||
| Christoffer | I want to do this because I toogle between workspaces with the same combination | 08:57 |
| Polah | Christoffer, search for "Keyboard Shortcuts" and disable the ones you don't want | 08:57 |
| Christoffer | Polah Thank you | 08:58 |
| pietrang77 | i have understand is a configuration on iptables ... but not understand | 08:58 |
| Christoffer | Is it possible to change Workspace layout to have them all in one row instead of 2x2? | 08:58 |
| Timvde | I'm having troubles with my internet lately, and I noticed I got an update for dhcp3-client and dhcp3-common on August 16. Is it possible that is related? Problem is: if I try to force the version of dhcp3-common down to the previous one, Synaptic forces me to remove dhcp3-client and ubuntu-minimal. How can I solve this? | 08:58 |
| Polah | Christoffer: Search "Workspace" and it might give you something. I don't know how to do it in Unity really. | 08:59 |
| Christoffer | ok | 08:59 |
| Polah | Timvde: What problems exactly? | 08:59 |
| Stanley00 | Christoffer: you can do this via ccsm or gconf tools | 08:59 |
| Timvde | Polah: Random disconnects my sister doesn't have on her Windows laptop | 08:59 |
| Polah | pietrang77: You'd need to switch to wlan0 to ping on that. Is your wireless working, assuming it's a wireless interface? | 09:00 |
| Stanley00 | Christoffer: I dont remember the right key yes, just a momment | 09:00 |
| cristian_c | Hi | 09:00 |
| Polah | You'll need to install ccsm before being able to use it | 09:00 |
| cristian_c | I've got a keyboard called Media Wireless Desktop by Labtec. I tried to set the keyboard shortcuts directly from the Applications-> Settings-> Xfce4 settings manager -> Keyboard-> Applications shortcuts. I clicked on Add and for example I typed the command 'evolution'. I pressed Ok and then the system asked me to type the key on the keyboard. | 09:00 |
| rawfodog | I had ubuntu on my primary install. I made apartician then installed windows 7. I just used gparted to delete that partician, made a new NTFS so I can install xp. When I launch the installer it says there is no harddrive attached. Is this microsoft trolling ubuntu ? | 09:00 |
| Christoffer | Stanley00 I tried to find it in ccsm but didn't find it there any longer with 11.04 | 09:00 |
| cristian_c | In this case the key was correctly recognized as XF86Mail and has been included in the list of shortcuts. But if I press the mail key, it always happens the same problem, that instead of opening evolution, the pc goes into stand-by. Is anyone able to understand what the problem is due? I even tried keytouch editor and it recognized the keys. | 09:00 |
| pietrang77 | polah : yes without ppp0 my wireless function correctely | 09:01 |
| Polah | rawfodog: The Windows installer? If so, ask in #ubuntu | 09:01 |
| cristian_c | But after setting up the keyboard with keytouch, if I press the 'mail' key, the PC goes always on standby for no reason | 09:01 |
| Polah | pietrang77: But with wlan0 it doesn't? | 09:01 |
| pietrang77 | if i connect ppp0 on internet and another PC on Wlan0 | 09:01 |
| pietrang77 | when i make ping all traffic go to ppp0 | 09:01 |
| pietrang77 | infact if i ping 100.100.100.110 not function .... if i ping google work fine | 09:02 |
| Timvde | Polah: I really suspect those dhcp-* packages to be the culprit, I really want to downgrade them and see if it solves my problem. | 09:03 |
| pietrang77 | if i ping 100.100.100.110 i want the traffic go on wlan0 ... now return "Operation not permitted" if ppp0 is connected return "host unreachable" is pppp0 is disconnected | 09:03 |
| Polah | Timvde: You'll probably have to build from source to downgrade | 09:03 |
| Timvde | Oh.. What the hell? Why? | 09:04 |
| Stanley00 | Christoffer: I cant find it in oneiric... | 09:04 |
| Timvde | Polah: Can you assure me I won't break anything if I remove those packages and install them again later? | 09:04 |
| === Grepsd||BNC is now known as Grepsd|BNC | ||
| dotjs | Hi | 09:05 |
| Polah | Timvde: Because when packages get upgraded it's because their candidacy has been replaced in the repos. I don't know if old packages remain and you could perhaps get them if you knew the exact package name | 09:05 |
| Stanley00 | Christoffer: you can install gconf-editor and search for key num of workspace or something like that, I think | 09:05 |
| Christoffer | Stanley00 I found it now... http://wiki.compiz.org/GeneralOptions#Desktop_Size | 09:05 |
| Polah | Timvde: I can make no guarantees, no. If it goes wrong you'd probably have to recreate your network interfaces and routes | 09:05 |
| Timvde | Polah: Synaptic gives me the option to downgrade. | 09:05 |
| Christoffer | in ccsm | 09:05 |
| Timvde | But it then forces me to remove those other packages I mentioned | 09:06 |
| Polah | Timvde: Oh really? I haven't seen that | 09:06 |
| Stanley00 | Christoffer: yep, that's it :) | 09:06 |
| Christoffer | Stanley00 Thank you for trying, really appreciate it! | 09:06 |
| Stanley00 | Christoffer: you are welcome :) | 09:06 |
| Timvde | Polah: It would be nice to have a way to downgrade them without uninstalling those other packages, or otherwise just to have an assurance nothing will break when I remove them (and reinstall them later manually) | 09:07 |
| Polah | Timvde: Install isc-dhcp-client and isc-dhcp-common | 09:07 |
| cristian_c | StevenR, How can I discover it, about the keyboard? | 09:08 |
| rawfodog | ok, how do I remove grub loader ? | 09:08 |
| Timvde | Polah: They're not in Synaptic. I should mention that I'm still on Maverick, maybe. | 09:08 |
| Polah | Timvde: isc-dhcp-client and common are the packages, dhcp3-client and common are transitional, they're the same packages though it seems. Exact same version | 09:08 |
| Polah | Timvde: Ah, perhaps isc-dhcp is only on 11.04 and the transitionals are only on maverick | 09:08 |

| Dr_Willis | morth: ie: /media/wndows not /dev/sdxx | 09:24 |

| Stanley00 | koustuv: well, what do you think dash will do? | 10:05 |
| kurt_ | It only happens if i convert from .Wav if i convert from smething else liek .FLAC tags are left intact | 10:05 |
| koustuv | dash is supposed to search items.. | 10:05 |

| koustuv | stanley: no, all i have internal 64mb | 10:11 |
| devish | any one ? | 10:11 |
| Stanley00 | koustuv: that's the reason, unity need more resoource... | 10:12 |
| knightstalker | koustuv,you should note that if your hardware is weak it will automatically switch to classic | 10:12 |
| knightstalker | koustuv,if Jockey(Additional Drivers) cant find any solution,then I wont know anyways regarding running unity on your hardware | 10:12 |
| matrixiumn | hello | 10:12 |
| Stanley00 | koustuv: you can try unity-2d, it looks the same as unity, but dont need vodeo card | 10:13 |
| koustuv | oh.. so should i switch to previous versions of ubuntu like 10.4 or should i continue with 11.04? | 10:13 |

| koustuv | stanley: ya thnx good advice..saw a link somewhre of unity 2d | 10:13 |
| knightstalker | koustuv,you should be fine with 11.04,as ubuntu will keep you on classic =),you can also go to login manager and completely switch to GNOME 2.x so it simply looks like 10.04,just a little more polished | 10:14 |
| knightstalker | lol | 10:14 |
| Stanley00 | koustuv: just run "sudo apt-get install unity-2d" and wait... ;) | 10:14 |

| andrew_46 | kurt_: Consider using flac perhaps | 10:25 |
| hplpb | kurt_: flac | 10:25 |
| kurt_ | ok a quick question though | 10:25 |
| tleuser | ok | 10:26 |
| kurt_ | flac is supposed to be lossless right, but it compresses :s if it compresses wont there be quality loss ? | 10:26 |
| hplpb | kurt_: or you could have it format the filenames with the artist, album, track info, etc if it does that | 10:26 |

| * NetAmp kinda messed up his boot loader *sigh* | 10:27 | |

| Stanley00 | Jackneill: yep! | 10:43 |
| knightstalker | Yep,its packages under xorg | 10:43 |
| knightstalker | in Debian/Ubuntu packages | 10:43 |
| Jackneill | so i need to install xorg | 10:43 |
| knightstalker | repos.* | 10:43 |
| jrib | Jackneill: if you don't want X.org, look for the emacs package with "nox" in it | 10:43 |
| Jackneill | i run gnome on ubuntu 11.04, why i need xorg? | 10:44 |
| jrib | Jackneill: you already have X.org then. | 10:44 |
| Jackneill | but the ./configure fails with that error | 10:44 |
| Myrtti | Jackneill: because xorg is what gives you pretty colours and a mouse cursor instead of a black screen with white text and a blinking text cursor | 10:44 |
| jrib | Jackneill: why are you not using a package manager to install emacs? | 10:44 |
| Jackneill | checking for X... no | 10:44 |
| Jackneill | checking for X... true | 10:44 |
| Jackneill | good question jrib | 10:45 |
| jrib | Jackneill: :D yes, use apt | 10:45 |
| knightstalker | you do not have development headers then | 10:45 |
| knightstalker | or something like that | 10:45 |
| Jackneill | myrtti: ok i'll install xorg | 10:45 |
| Jackneill | sudo apt-get install emacs? | 10:45 |
| knightstalker | lol,or that | 10:45 |
| knightstalker | :p | 10:45 |
| knightstalker | but I think the reason it doesn't find xorg is not that xorg doesn't exist,its because libx11-dev is not there | 10:46 |
| Jackneill | hm | 10:46 |
| knightstalker | When I compiled ages ago,stuff failed not because the main thing wasn't there,but because development headers were not existant | 10:46 |

| morth | thunsucker: i see Location but not Link Target. | 11:12 |
| horis | joinchannel #xubuntu | 11:13 |
| David__ | i will try and then return | 11:13 |
| thunsucker | David__, ubuntu has drivers for ew-7318ug out of the box | 11:13 |

| Ristovski | :( | 12:03 |
| Ristovski | Thats why I need my ubuntu on USB | 12:03 |
| nmvictor | auronandace: whats all that for, I know ppa. I tried changing ppa, in fact the version I mentioned is from ppa:n-muench/vlc ppa and its still behaving the same way. | 12:03 |

| Stanley00 | nmvictor: it means if you have some problems with ppa, dont ask for support here, I think ;) | 12:04 |
| Sidewinder1 | Ristovski, If you're having problems running many programs (non-install), perhaps it IS a bad download of the ISO; that's why one shouls always md5sum the image after download. | 12:04 |
| Ristovski | no | 12:05 |
| Sidewinder1 | should, even. | 12:05 |

| pietrang77 | hello ALL !! there is some one can help me on routing table? | 12:41 |
| ben_ | I'm just installing Natty with full-disk encryption. Does this mean the swap partition will be encrypted - with one-time random keys, specifically? | 12:42 |
| soreau | pietrang77: Not unless you ask.. | 12:42 |
| vlt | ben_: Usually the whole disk is encrypted using one key, including swap | 12:42 |
| soreau | pietrang77: ##networking might be a better channel | 12:42 |
| Ristovski | can I copy casper-rw from Usb o DVD to use persistency on dvd? | 12:43 |
| pietrang77 | thanks soreau, but not body responce me! | 12:43 |
| ben_ | vlt: There was no way I could see to set up random one-time keys for the swap. Presumably I can do this after the installation? | 12:43 |
| soreau | pietrang77: Ah yes, you may have to be more patient there | 12:44 |
| soreau | pietrang77: What is your question? | 12:44 |
| vlt | ben_: To be more precise: You end up with two partitions on your disk. One is used for grub and the kernel to boot, the second one is fully encrypted and holds all other "partition" (devices) as LVM volumes. | 12:45 |
| Ristovski | ill try to boot from USB | 12:45 |

| vlt | ben_: A different approach would be to first use LVM and then encrypt every single volume (you want to). | 12:45 |

| Johnny_Giggles | I've installed Skype on my laptop. How am I supposed to use it to record a video? | 12:48 |
| soreau | pietrang77: Do you want to share the connection? | 12:48 |
| vlt | ben_: What are you actually trying to achieve? | 12:48 |
| SoftarPaul | Myrtti: http://pastebin.com/qHVrGv1K That's the error | 12:48 |
| SoftarPaul | Myrtti: "sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start" | 12:49 |
| pietrang77 | soreau: no, i don't want share connection, i want all thetraffic with class 100.100.100.x go on wlan0 | 12:49 |
| Myrtti | SoftarPaul: so what happens if you do what the error message suggests you to do? | 12:49 |
| soreau | pietrang77: You probably want to set the wlan0 interface up as an AP and let the other component connect to it instead of the other way around.. | 12:49 |
| Myrtti | SoftarPaul: SSH should start automatically, tho | 12:49 |
| vlt | ben_: Do you want contents of swap device being unreadable after reboot? | 12:49 |
| ben_ | vlt: that's exactly what /i want | 12:49 |
| SoftarPaul | Myrtti: I don't get the error-message... What should I do? | 12:50 |
| pietrang77 | soreau: yes | 12:50 |
| Myrtti | SoftarPaul: sudo service ssh start | 12:50 |
| usr13 | MrSassyPants: To launch SWAT just run your favorite web browser and point it at "http://localhost:901/" | 12:50 |
| SoftarPaul | Myrtti: start: Job is already running: ssh | 12:50 |
| Myrtti | SoftarPaul: then it is already running, congratulations | 12:51 |
| MrSassyPants | usr13, I'm missing some part of that conversation, this is the first reference to swat I hear | 12:51 |
| MrSassyPants | ah wait, I just opened the urls | 12:51 |
| vlt | ben_: Two possible solutions: Either double encrypt or (if you swap often, what shouldn't be the case on a properly configured machine) create a third partition and configure it as random key swap device. | 12:51 |
| MrSassyPants | didn't actually read the text >_> | 12:52 |
| usr13 | MrSassyPants: sudo apt-get install swat | 12:52 |
| === root is now known as Guest43429 | ||
| vlt | ben_: For the latter you'll have to shrink the encrypted device (and all its logical columes before) either from initrd shell or better from a live CD (like grml.org). | 12:53 |
| ben_ | vlt: The second one feels tidier. So once the install's finished, I'll resize my encrypted data-partition, make a new swap in the free space & set it up for one-time key encryption. Then I'll get ubuntu to use that rather than the original swap within the encrypted data-partition | 12:53 |
| === Guest43429 is now known as Mitnik85 | ||
| usr13 | SoftarPaul: Do you have openssh-server installed on the server side? | 12:55 |
| v4nelle | guys anybody who knows java? | 12:55 |
| usr13 | SoftarPaul: sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 12:55 |
| theadmin | v4nelle: Ask in the appropriate channel, likely #java | 12:55 |
| Myrtti | usr13: you're a bit late | 12:55 |
| ben_ | vlt: OK, thanks. Is it easy to tell ubuntu to use the new swap partition rather than its original one? How do I get rid of the original one within the main encrypted partition? | 12:55 |
| usr13 | Myrtti: Oh, sorry | 12:56 |
| SoftarPaul | Myrtti: I can't connect with Tesla... | 12:56 |
| vlt | ben_: You _can_ do it from within the running system too. But I doubt the running kernel will accept changes to the partition layout while using one partition as source device for LUKS. | 12:56 |
| vlt | ben_: Just edit /etc/fstab | 12:56 |
| Myrtti | SoftarPaul: Tesla is what, SSH software? | 12:56 |
| SoftarPaul | Myrtti: Kind of, it is a remote | 12:56 |
| usr13 | remote what? | 12:56 |
| ben_ | vlt: OK. I've got a LiveCD laying around I can use | 12:56 |
| vlt | ben_: Replace the old swap line by your new one. and edit /etc/crypttab to load your one-time random swap device before | 12:56 |
| SoftarPaul | usr13: For controlling VLC etc. | 12:57 |
| ben_ | vlt: Ok, there will be instructions somewhere on how to do that | 12:57 |
| usr13 | SoftarPaul: You need to turn on the VNC server? | 12:57 |
| vlt | ben_: This is an example from my /etc/crypttab: "swap /dev/mapper/vg_cooper-swap /dev/urandom swap" | 12:57 |
| Myrtti | SoftarPaul: could you give an URL to that app, I'm having difficulties grasping what you are aiming at | 12:58 |
| vlt | ben_: This is crypt-on-lvm, not full disk | 12:58 |

| PsiKloPx | g'morning, is it possible to change the default email client to Thunderbird in the messaging menu? I've already made the change in 'Preferred Applications' but the messaging menu will only launch Evolution. | 12:59 |
| theadmin | systemclient: Ubuntu has a built-in firewall called iptables. You normally do not need to worry about setting it up. | 12:59 |
| theadmin | PsiKloPx: No, Thunderbird isn't a part of Gnome so doesn't integrate with the menues | 13:00 |
| ben_ | vlt: I'll need to do some reading on it I think. | 13:00 |
| theadmin | PsiKloPx: You may google around and end up finding some dirty hack, though | 13:00 |
| Myrtti | SoftarPaul: so are you with the Tesla and the PC with ssh in the same network? | 13:00 |
| PsiKloPx | theadmin: Thanks, guess I'll have to wait for .10...Google wasn't much help... | 13:00 |
| vlt | ben_: LVM is one or more devices in, one or more devices out. Resizing, renaming, taking snapshots can be done all while the machine is running. | 13:00 |
| systemclient | PsiKloPx: dirty hack could be to replace /usr/bin/evolution with a link to thunderbord | 13:01 |
| systemclient | theadmin: okay, so my computer would be safe against the normal attacks in a public wifi? | 13:01 |
| theadmin | systemclient: Freaking brilliant :D | 13:01 |
| usr13 | SoftarPaul: So did you get Tesla installed on your phone? | 13:01 |
| theadmin | systemclient: Normally yeah | 13:01 |
| SoftarPaul | usr13: yes | 13:01 |
| systemclient | theadmin: okay, so even if I am in the IT Department of my university where probably some jerks lurk? | 13:01 |
| SoftarPaul | Myrtti: Yes | 13:02 |
| vlt | ben_: Consider LVM an abstraction layer between your real hard drives and devices available to the system. | 13:02 |
| usr13 | SoftarPaul: sudo apt-get install openssh-server #On your ubuntu system? | 13:02 |
| Myrtti | usr13: he did | 13:02 |

| Myrtti | usr13: and the sshd is running | 13:02 |
| usr13 | Myrtti: SoftarPaul Good to go then. | 13:02 |
| Myrtti | usr13: indeed | 13:02 |
| vlt | ben_: Or rather between any two layers of devices (as you can see in the hd -> partition -> crypt -> LVM example. | 13:02 |
| usr13 | SoftarPaul: What is the problem? Are you using a valid user name and IP address to connect? | 13:03 |
| systemclient | theadmin: A friend of mine uses firewallbuilder in his network … so that would be overkill thne? | 13:03 |
| Sidewinder1 | systemclient, You're probably safe from attack; I would not, however transmit sensitive data such as Soc.# account#s, etc. over public WIFI. | 13:03 |
| theadmin | systemclient: Presumably so. I'm not so sure, my router has a built-in firewall, but I never bothered to configure it | 13:03 |
| usr13 | SoftarPaul: Do you know the username and IP of your Ubuntu system? Is the phone connected to the wireless network? | 13:03 |
| and7ey | which IRC channel should I use to ask questions about apps compilation for ubuntu? | 13:04 |

| yeats | Ristovski: I can't really advise you on that, but the Shrink Partition facility is "smart" and will stop you if you're trying to shrink too far | 13:19 |

| CAstrEN | Hi! How can I remove package sources, that I have added once? | 13:43 |
| MrSassyPants | ok, I want to find & install the german language pack for libreoffice. How do I do that? | 13:43 |
| phong_ | i don't see running ubuntu in real install any faster then ubuntu in vmware | 13:43 |
| phong_ | they both are same speed. | 13:44 |
| GunClive | hi. sudo usermod -aG groupname username does not add my user to the group. why? thanks. | 13:44 |
| MrSassyPants | how do I figure out what the name of the pack would be? | 13:44 |
| phong_ | do you guys agree with me? | 13:44 |
| xangua | phong_: just install it via Language settings | 13:44 |
| CAstrEN | Everytime I use apt-get update it complains about a web server that not longer exists. I added the server once, but now i would like to remove it | 13:44 |
| Stanley00 | phong_: it depends | 13:44 |
| Gentoo64 | phong_, a proper machine iwll be faster | 13:44 |
| Gentoo64 | always | 13:44 |
| Gentoo64 | not always noticebale | 13:44 |
| phong_ | it's like "not always noticeable" | 13:45 |
| BlueEagle | and7ey: Are the files present and does the user running configure have access to them? | 13:45 |
| Stanley00 | MrSassyPants: why dont you try software center? | 13:45 |
| phong_ | Gentoo64, so is it better not to install as real install? | 13:45 |
| phong_ | in my case should i just stick with vmware and get rid of real installation? | 13:45 |
| Gentoo64 | phong_, i would install as a proper install | 13:45 |
| phong_ | oh | 13:45 |
| Gentoo64 | a proper install is faster, more stable, and you get to use your proper hardware | 13:46 |
| phong_ | Gentoo64, i see that ubuntu is way faster then MacOSX | 13:46 |
| Gentoo64 | idk about mac | 13:46 |
| phong_ | fuking mac os x sux shlt..cant' really do much with it. | 13:46 |
| bampersand | Hey guys, i'm wanting to download youtube videos and have them converted to mp3 through the command line, youtube-dl seems to be pretty decent. Ideally i'd like to only download the mp3s and not the movies (firefox addons convert them to mp3 on their server so you only download the mp3s, though i'm wanting to download complete playlists at a time), any ideas? | 13:46 |
| Gentoo64 | cant swear in here phong_ | 13:46 |
| phong_ | okie | 13:46 |
| Sidewinder1 | CAstrEN, Go into Synaotic Package Mgr. and "untick" that server. | 13:47 |
| Sidewinder1 | Synaptic, even. | 13:47 |
| Gentoo64 | phong_, just try it for a bit in vm and if it suits you then run proper | 13:47 |
| CAstrEN | Sidewinder1: Unfortunaltly I am only able to use the command line | 13:47 |
| phong_ | Gentoo64, i guess i stick with reall installed...since it is install inside windows disk | 13:47 |
| home-alone | hi...how to un-install libre office...? | 13:47 |
| Gentoo64 | phong_, with wubi? | 13:48 |
| phong_ | and it only take 17GB | 13:48 |
| phong_ | yeah | 13:48 |
| Fr4n | any ideas why when starting, ubuntu didnt recognized my sata and swap partitions? I had to comment them from the fstab file. | 13:48 |
| Sidewinder1 | CAstrEN, I absolutely "stink" at CL, sorry. :-( | 13:48 |
| phong_ | Gentoo64, is that good? | 13:48 |
| Gentoo64 | phong_, if you do it proper, or dual boot, you can use ext4 filesystem | 13:48 |
| meegooo | oCean: eth0 is also there | 13:48 |
| Gentoo64 | phong_, i never used wubi but dont like the sound if it | 13:48 |
| Stanley00 | home-alone: try do that in USC or synaptic | 13:48 |
| meegooo | oCean: but why i cant see it by ifconfig ? | 13:48 |
| phong_ | you meant ext4 is way faster? | 13:48 |
| theadmin | phong_: Why yes, it is | 13:48 |
| home-alone | Stanley00, how in terminal | 13:49 |
| Gentoo64 | phong_, not faster, but its a linux fs and doesnt fragement as much as ntfs | 13:49 |
| Stanley00 | home-alone: it some thing like sudo apt-get remove <your apt name> | 13:49 |
| IdleOne | CAstrEN: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list - either add a # in front of the line you don't want used or delete it completely from the file. make sure to run sudo apt-get update after editing that file. | 13:49 |
| oCean | meegooo: is your install a "real" one or virtual (vbox etc?) - a hardwareaddress might have changed. You can see the actual hwaddress in ifconfig -a output | 13:49 |
| meegooo | oCean: no vbox | 13:50 |
| home-alone | Stanley00, libre-office ?? | 13:50 |
| Stanley00 | home-alone: maybe, | 13:50 |
| CAstrEN | IdleOne: I already looked in the sources.list it is not in there | 13:50 |
| meegooo | oCean: just eth1 and lo | 13:50 |
| IdleOne | CAstrEN: maybe in sources.list.d | 13:50 |
| oCean | meegooo: well, I don't know your configuration, if you're certain you have 2 network devices, both should show up in ifconfig -a output (when proper drivers are loaded) | 13:51 |
| oCean | meegooo: you can still change the eth1 in the udev/rules.d files to eth0, to get a working eth0 interface | 13:51 |

| usr13 | SoftarPaul: CORRECTION: Earlier I said export DISPLA=:0.0 it's export DISPLAY=:0.0 | 13:53 |
| IdleOne | CAstrEN: but don't delete sources.list or sources.list.d just delete the offending lines in the files | 13:53 |

| crash1hd | if you where to get a new system what amd processor would you get? | 13:56 |

I followed http://www.sailsarana.com/share_3G_data_internet_over_wifi.php . Can someone tell what could be the problem? | 13:57 |
| zappus | will there be any noticable difference if i get a netbook with ssd instead of hdd for ubuntu? | 13:57 |
| thunsucker | crash1hd, depends on the system but also depends on the price, never hurts to go for a good one that is on sell :) | 13:57 |
| erkan^ | I cannot found Sun Java in the Software Centre | 13:57 |
| sosaited | BTW instead of dhcp3-server , I have isc-dhcp-server. | 13:57 |
| thunsucker | zappus, it will be more 'quiet' :) | 13:57 |
| crash1hd | thunsucker, :) very true kinda looking for what people think is the cream of the crop (if not worried about price) | 13:58 |
| Stanley00 | zappus: and a bit faster, I think | 13:58 |
| thunsucker | crash1hd, do you have the $$$ to buy it/ | 13:58 |
| crash1hd | no but I am curious what is out there | 13:58 |
| crash1hd | I ended up picking up this one http://www.memoryexpress.com/Products/PID-MX34247(ME).aspx?cc=1 | 13:58 |
| thunsucker | crash1hd, http://www.hardware-revolution.com/best-cpu-spring-2011/ | 13:58 |
| zappus | is it worth the extra cost? :P | 13:58 |
| Gentoo64 | zappepcs, faster, no noise, lesss power = more battery life | 13:58 |
| Gentoo64 | zappus, ^ | 13:58 |
| crash1hd | thunsucker, thanks :) thats kinda what I was looking for :) | 13:59 |
| Gentoo64 | zappus, check the ssd though some are slow, some are amazingly fast | 13:59 |
| thunsucker | crash1hd, google is your friend ;) | 13:59 |
| crash1hd | thunsucker, last chip I bought was a 775 it was over 5 years ago | 13:59 |
| zappus | ok fair enough :D | 13:59 |
| crash1hd | thunsucker, true but google doesnt give personal experience as easy | 13:59 |
| Gentoo64 | zappus, are you from uk? | 14:00 |
| zappus | no, im from canada :P | 14:00 |
| zappus | why? | 14:00 |
| Gentoo64 | zappus, i was going to say in the uk some good offer on ssd | 14:00 |
| Gentoo64 | zappus, you can always buy the laptop with a hdd then buy a decent ssd | 14:01 |
| Gentoo64 | vertex 2 is very good and cheap | 14:01 |
| zappus | Gentoo64, well im thinking of getting thinkpad x1 or x200 | 14:01 |
| zappus | both offer ssd as an option | 14:01 |
| Gentoo64 | i dont know naything about laptops tbh. work out the price with/without the ssd, if the ssds decent go for it | 14:01 |
| zappus | but i lose 160gb and pay extra 300$ | 14:01 |
| Gentoo64 | if not get the hdd one and fork out little extra for good ssd | 14:01 |
| Gentoo64 | you will always lose disk space, but the ssd benefits make up for it loads | 14:02 |
| Gentoo64 | think about it theyre ideal for laptop | 14:02 |
| zappus | ok then im sticking with ssd :D | 14:02 |
| zappus | yeah thats true | 14:02 |
| zappus | besides i don't really need that much space on a netbook anyway | 14:02 |
| zappus | Gentoo64, what would you say about gorrila glass screen? | 14:03 |
| zappus | if you know what that is | 14:03 |
| Gentoo64 | no idea what it is | 14:03 |
| thunsucker | crash1hd, i googled that in 2 seconds and i don't have an amd | 14:03 |
| zappus | oh ok | 14:03 |
| crash1hd | thunsucker, :) right | 14:04 |

| pr0zoid | usr13: Yes. I tried moving that machine to the dmz but that didn't help as well as port forward. | 14:15 |
| macer1 | OK | 14:15 |
| xangua | that's what it says | 14:15 |
| macer1 | But I am asking for PPA or source code | 14:16 |
| usr13 | pr0zoid: Well, that's what it takes, port forwarding. | 14:16 |
| usr13 | pr0zoid: Or create an alias on the router for it, (that is if you have another outside IP). | 14:17 |
| Geet | When i was running ubuntu version 10.10 but gradullay it hanged and stop working so i had to switched it off | 14:17 |
| pr0zoid | maybe it was the wrong port.... read the docs though...was trying with smbfs on the linux box | 14:17 |
| SoftarPaul | Hi! I've got an application that should run on port 8889, but I can't connect... I think another application/program is running via this port. How to check which program? | 14:18 |
| jforjackjohnson | Multiple applications can listen on the same port technically, look at Pygopherd. | 14:18 |
| xyzzy_ | test | 14:18 |
| BlessJah | macer1: actually it's only 1500 nicks here, there are more crowded channels | 14:18 |
| jforjackjohnson | xyzzy_, Hi. | 14:18 |
| pr0zoid | usr13: trying to mount windows fileshare here what i was trying to do - http://www.liberiangeek.net/2010/08/mount-windows-shares-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx-terminal/ | 14:19 |
| usr13 | pr0zoid: but if you expose the server directly to the internet, you loose the security of being behind the router. | 14:19 |
| pr0zoid | usr13: my local machine(win7) is behind a router the server(ubuntu10.04) is on the net | 14:20 |
| usr13 | pr0zoid: samba file sharing is designed to be done within a LAN | 14:20 |
| pr0zoid | looks like im stuck then... | 14:21 |
| usr13 | pr0zoid: Punching a whole trhough a router for a samba share is beyond the scope of ubuntu support. | 14:21 |
| MAbeeTT | hi, How could I now why my computers does noy hibernate and just sometimes suspend works? I'v more swap than ram. Thanks. | 14:22 |
| pr0zoid | yes i know. | 14:22 |
| pr0zoid | i know how to do it.. but not sure what ports are being used. | 14:22 |
| usr13 | pr0zoid: nmap | 14:22 |
| s093294 | Anyone who can direct me to the right channel, doing c or c++ and want to know about how to make decent gui application(been doing console only sofar). | 14:23 |
| theadmin | pr0zoid: samba ports are commonly 139 and/or 445 | 14:23 |
| ikonia | s093294: /join ##c or ##c++ | 14:23 |
| theadmin | s093294: wxwidgets, qt and gtk are your obvious friends ;) | 14:24 |
| Stanley00 | MAbeeTT: you could try pm-hibernate and see its output to know why | 14:24 |
| pr0zoid | theadmin: i thought so... those are the ones i'm using on my firewall. | 14:24 |
| pr0zoid | theadmin: i guess the ubuntu server should be blocking it as well.. | 14:25 |
| dan_ | hi | 14:25 |
| usr13 | pr0zoid: http://pastebin.com/6G4vxeqY | 14:25 |
| dan_ | can i aks here a question about 11.10b? | 14:25 |
| Stanley00 | dan_: join #ubuntu+1 please | 14:25 |
| dan_ | thanks | 14:26 |
| AznLosty | so i installed ubuntu 11.04 today and realised i do not know how to separate the audio from the HDMI connection on my video card | 14:26 |
| AznLosty | =/ | 14:26 |
| MAbeeTT | Stanley00: mmm, but doing sudo pm-hibernate the system "starts" to hibernate, then wen I turn it on nothing happens. Uptime=0min | 14:26 |
| AznLosty | anyone have experience with it? | 14:26 |
| s093294 | theadmin, I know about windows gui (from dot net) so can you tell me which of the three i would properly like the most | 14:27 |
| voxcroix | Empathy 2.34.0 <--- found missing botton on windows. (windows cant close) | 14:27 |
| theadmin | s093294: .NET? System.Windows.Forms? | 14:27 |
| IdleOne | jforjackjohnson: Please quit sending me unsolicited private message about your choice of beverage. | 14:27 |
| theadmin | s093294: Qt is a bit similar I guess... | 14:27 |
| IdleOne | I don't care. | 14:27 |
| Stanley00 | MAbeeTT: and you get back to the moment before you hibernate? | 14:27 |
| Agion | Hello! I'm trying to install Ubuntu to my old computer and the installation cannot find any drive space at "Allocate Drive Space" so there's no option to choose.. Any ideas? I've tried this with older ubuntu installation cd's and the current one I want to install is the newest ubuntu. | 14:28 |
| ikonia | s093294: try ##c++ and ##c channels | 14:28 |
| usr13 | pr0zoid: netstat -pantu |grep smbd | 14:28 |
| jforjackjohnson | IdleOne, I was quoting that I am now sane. You can't take light-heartedness. Do you ever challenge other operators? | 14:28 |
| IdleOne | jforjackjohnson: not when they are right. | 14:28 |
| MAbeeTT | Stanley00: I don't, the uptime starts again, everything starts in 0. | 14:28 |
| MAbeeTT | Stanley00: free -m | egrep 'Mem|Swap' | 14:28 |
| MAbeeTT | Mem: 5981 2297 3683 0 195 648 | 14:28 |
| MAbeeTT | Swap: 6234 0 6234 | 14:28 |
| BarkingFish | afternoon all. Anyone able to help me with a problem concerning the Ubuntu developers guide to packaging? The instructions in it aren't correct, and I'm now stuck at the point where I issue my public key. | 14:28 |
| theadmin | jforjackjohnson: and, ops are right most of the time here :P | 14:29 |
| sagaci | BarkingFish, have you created your gpg key using gpg --gen-key | 14:29 |
| BarkingFish | sagaci, yes | 14:30 |
| jforjackjohnson | IdleOne, You are now challenging God, the ultimate op everywhere. I am now sane, so think 2ce b4 u do things. | 14:30 |
| BarkingFish | The bit which doesn't work is the send keys option, sagaci | 14:30 |
| ArW | hello | 14:30 |
| sagaci | what error(s) are you getting | 14:30 |
| Stanley00 | MAbeeTT: I cant figure out why, sorry. | 14:30 |
| BarkingFish | i tried to issue my keys using gpg --send-keys followed by the ID, and got a message telling me that there was no known keyserver, and that send failed, Bad URI | 14:31 |
| usr13 | MAbeeTT: memtest | 14:31 |
| jforjackjohnson | Well I have been banned from #ubuntu-*, so can't get to the ops actions discussion channel. Have to do it here. | 14:31 |
| MAbeeTT | Stanley00: I've more swap than ram. | 14:31 |
| BlouBlou | ikonia: ^ | 14:31 |
| BarkingFish | it doesn't say in that tutorial that I have to add a keyserver, sagaci | 14:31 |
| Amin | I want ubuntu to automount my 100gb ext4 filesystem on login. I added the mount point /mount/sda5 for this partition (/dev/sda5) with the option defaults in /etc/fstab. it is mounted automatically but only root can write in it. how can a regular user without root permissions write in it? | 14:31 |
| winut | anyone reported dvd burning problems on 11.04? | 14:31 |
| ikonia | jforjackjohnson: please message me and I will explain it | 14:31 |
| jforjackjohnson | ikonia, You actually closed my client. HOW DARE YOU? | 14:31 |
| MAbeeTT | usr13: memtest? ram works ok | 14:31 |
| sagaci | BarkingFish, what version of ubuntu are you using | 14:31 |
| usr13 | MAbeeTT: Sorry, just a suggestion. | 14:32 |
| Stanley00 | Amin: add user option to that line, I think | 14:32 |
| theadmin | ...lol. | 14:32 |
| winut | my old man cant burn disks, they are screwing up at last step | 14:32 |
| BarkingFish | I'm not using Ubuntu, i'm on Kubuntu, 11.04 sagaci - but the instructions for setup are the same, from the Ubuntu wiki | 14:32 |
| winut | using ubuntu 64bit 11.04 | 14:32 |
| usr13 | MAbeeTT: But did you run memtest ? | 14:32 |
| pr0zoid | usr13: returns nothing | 14:32 |
| MAbeeTT | usr13: yes. When I buy memory I do memtest. | 14:33 |
| Amin | Stanley00, I've already done that but no effects. do I have to reboot after a fstab edit? | 14:33 |
| pr0zoid | usr13: couldn't load up your pastebin | 14:33 |
| Gentoo64 | Amin, yes | 14:33 |
| usr13 | winut: Are you using k3b ? | 14:33 |
| winut | burner works fine on other os | 14:33 |
| Stanley00 | Amin: sorry, misunderstood, try chmod +w /mount/sda5 then :D | 14:33 |
| Gentoo64 | but im nut sure if users lets you write as user | 14:33 |
| Gentoo64 | i think you need chmod | 14:33 |
| Gentoo64 | for ext4 | 14:33 |
| winut | trying both k3b and brasero, same issue | 14:33 |
| usr13 | http://pastebin.com/6G4vxeqY | 14:33 |
| thegladiator | is 11.4 with upgrade same as 11.10 beta | 14:33 |
| AznLosty | no one knows how to fix the nvidia hdmi/audio issue? | 14:33 |
| Amin | Stanley00, is that command need to be entered after every login? | 14:33 |
| sagaci | BarkingFish, so you're running gpg --send-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com $GPGKEY | 14:34 |
| Stanley00 | Amin: you just need that only one | 14:34 |
| === allen_ is now known as Guest34226 | ||
| Amin | thanks | 14:34 |
| BarkingFish | sagaci, no, because that's not what the wiki says to do :) | 14:34 |
| Stanley00 | Amin: you are welcome :) | 14:34 |
| winut | i'm trying to get him to use linux but i think he wants to uninstall it now! | 14:34 |
| usr13 | pr0zoid: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/securing-samba.html | 14:34 |
| sagaci | BarkingFish, then try that method, replacing $GPGKEY with yours | 14:34 |
| Stanley00 | winut: then, let he do that ;) | 14:34 |
| thegladiator | is 11.4 with upgrade same as 11.10 beta nyone | 14:34 |
| BarkingFish | the instructions from the wiki are: Next, you need to upload the public part of your key to a keyserver so the world can identify messages and files as yours. To do so, enter: - $ gpg --send-keys <KEY ID> | 14:34 |
| sagaci | the wiki could be outdated | 14:35 |
| winut | but it took a lot of work to get him to try it, okay | 14:35 |
| Stanley00 | thegladiator: maybe, if there isn't a config conflict... | 14:35 |
| BarkingFish | ok sagaci - i'll try that method | 14:35 |
| BarkingFish | one moment | 14:35 |
| thegladiator | ok ty Stanley00 | 14:35 |
| usr13 | winut: What error do you get from k3b ? | 14:36 |
| winut | ill have to ask him | 14:36 |
| auronandace | thegladiator: no, they are not the same | 14:36 |
| winut | maybe i can get a pastebin | 14:36 |
| === BlouBlou_ is now known as BlouBlou | ||
| AznLosty | great.. | 14:36 |
| BarkingFish | That did it, sagaci - I'll see if I can join the wiki, and edit that page to correct the step | 14:36 |
| sagaci | BarkingFish, you might have to wait a while for it to sync properly to upload to launchpad, if that's your intention | 14:37 |
| usr13 | Port 137/UDP - used by nmbd | 14:37 |
| usr13 | Port 138/UDP - used by nmbd | 14:37 |
| usr13 | Port 139/TCP - used by smbd | 14:37 |
| usr13 | sorry | 14:37 |
| BarkingFish | no problem, sagaci - the update needs to be done since that step is wrong, and if people are gonna follow it for a setup guide, there's gonna be more people like me whom it doesn't work for :) | 14:38 |
| usr13 | pr0zoid: See my PM | 14:38 |
| sagaci | BarkingFish, nah I just meant your gpg upload | 14:38 |

| hidensoft | hi all, what is the best way to install flash player for firefox ? | 14:58 |
| djskidd | To not | 14:58 |
| djskidd | *Not to | 14:58 |
| auronandace | hidensoft: using the package manager | 14:58 |
| Wowww | flash player is fail | 14:58 |
| djskidd | Use HTML5 if at all possible | 14:58 |
| hidensoft | auronandace: witch software i need to install ? | 14:59 |
| drehdz | install the addon "flash-aid" | 14:59 |
| sagaci | hidensoft, not really a "best" way but using the software centre is usually the easiest | 14:59 |
| hidensoft | i install anything but flash is not work | 14:59 |
| hidensoft | drehdz: i install it yesterday | 14:59 |
| djskidd | How fast is your computer hidensoft? | 14:59 |
| drehdz | once you install the addon you need to run it | 15:00 |
| Ristovski_ | does installing download something? | 15:00 |
| th4i | Wow it works | 15:00 |
| Ristovski_ | please tell me faster im in a hurry | 15:00 |
| hidensoft | djskidd, cpu : CoreI7 , 4GIG DDR3 Ram , i think is fast | 15:00 |
| PARAG0D | hello | 15:00 |
| auronandace | Ristovski_: depends | 15:00 |
| djskidd | Yeah, do HTML5. | 15:00 |
| Ristovski_ | auronandace : depends? | 15:00 |
| djskidd | In the website where you want to use Flash, poke around in settings (like YouTube) | 15:00 |
| Ristovski_ | say how much | 15:01 |
| sagaci | BarkingFish, pretty sure you can, as long as you have the passphrase and private key | 15:01 |
| djskidd | Look for an HTML5 option | 15:01 |
| djskidd | and choose it | 15:01 |
| djskidd | Make sure your browser can handle HTML5. | 15:01 |
| linus_49 | hallo together | 15:01 |
| djskidd | Chromium and Firefox latest release can handle it | 15:01 |
| auronandace | Ristovski_: if you've already downloaded it then no, if not then obviously it will need to download it to install it | 15:01 |
| Ristovski_ | How much does installing ubuntu download? | 15:01 |
| Ristovski_ | Im in a hurry | 15:01 |
| djskidd | I never use it cause my computers are all to slow | 15:01 |
| BarkingFish | sagaci, I managed to get the instructions, the key i didn't want is gone, along with the secret key attached to it | 15:01 |
| Ristovski_ | please tell me | 15:02 |
| djskidd | Ristovski_: What method are you using to install? | 15:02 |
| auronandace | !please | Ristovski_ | 15:02 |
| ubottu | Ristovski_: Avoid following your questions with a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !attitude | 15:02 |
| MAbeeTT | usr13: I do know search in google, the idea is to find ubutu's documentantion. | 15:02 |
| Ristovski_ | Im running it on Live CD | 15:02 |
| Ristovski_ | I have downloaded the iso | 15:02 |
| djskidd | Ristovski_: Install from Live CD won't download anything, install will take from 10 min - 1hr | 15:03 |
| sagaci | BarkingFish, I wouldn't worry about it, if you publish your key on your website and/or Launchpad, people are only going to worry about that one | 15:03 |
| djskidd | Any developers here? | 15:04 |
| Wowww | when i type sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk i get some error like package not found what is wrong? | 15:04 |
| Stanley00 | Ristovski_: if you chose update while download, it will take much, if you are in a hurry, just disconnect and cancel the update. | 15:04 |
| BarkingFish | sagaci, I'm all done regards the key. It's registered on the launchpad, I've signed the code of conduct, looks like I'm set there. | 15:04 |

| ubottu | Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 15:07 |
| sagaci | BarkingFish, yeah, don't worry about "ghost" keys, it'll be like they aren't there anyway | 15:07 |
| djskidd | Oh, I should try there as well | 15:07 |
| hidensoft | oh, i don't know about mint | 15:07 |
| overseman | I was thinking their should be a section in the documentation about using ubuntu to rescue other systems. ie windows. I've been searching through the documentation and I haven't found much. What is there is scattered. Any other thoughts on it? | 15:07 |
| djskidd | I use Knoppix when I rescue other systems | 15:07 |
| wolfric | what do you call that tool that gives you like a web gui managmeent of a linux box.. something like hadmin or h something... runs on port 8001 or something | 15:07 |
| xyzzy_ | Is it possible to make a LUKS encrypted volume un-recoverable? You can for Truecrypt volumes by deleting the volume header (first few bytes), thus destroying the master keys | 15:07 |
| djskidd | Puppy works even better | 15:08 |
| djskidd | YES YES YES | 15:08 |
| djskidd | Someone FINALLY made a TI calculator with a COLOR DISPLAY! | 15:08 |
| theadmin | wolfric: I think it was... webmin? | 15:08 |
| overseman | Well I've used ubuntu on several occassions so I thought if their was enough intrest in it then we could approach the Docs team and be like, "Yo, add this stuff!" | 15:09 |
| wolfric | theadmin: spot on thanks | 15:09 |
| auronandace | !webmin | wolfric | 15:09 |
| ubottu | wolfric: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. | 15:09 |
| Wowww_ | why doesn't ubuntu add multiverse and partner by default :P | 15:09 |
| theadmin | Wowww_: You need to understand that those packages are unsupported | 15:10 |
| Wowww_ | i see | 15:10 |
| BarkingFish | This is nuts. | 15:10 |
| gentoo-intel | BarkingFish, what is? | 15:10 |
| wolfric | auronandace: i was just going to ask, i could have sworn i saw it in the package repo but it wasn't there when i saw it | 15:10 |
| BarkingFish | I've got to the next step in the packaging guide, creating an ssh key, gentoo-intel | 15:10 |
| wolfric | auronandace: is there an article on what exactly it breaks? | 15:10 |
| auronandace | wolfric: not sure sorry, never used it | 15:10 |
| BarkingFish | I do the setup, enter the passphrase i want, and the key refuses to save, I get Permission denied | 15:11 |
| Wowww_ | atleast they should give a message like the package is not supported do you want to install [Y] or [N] | 15:11 |
| gentoo-intel | Wowww_, they intentially dont make it that easy, because it isnt supported | 15:12 |
| theadmin | wolfric: Check these: http://alternativeto.net/software/webmin/?platform=linux | 15:12 |
| BarkingFish | Anyone got any thoughts on how to fix this? If I'm going to set up to package, I need an ssh key generating and saving. | 15:12 |

| necreo | how can I make `cal` start with monday? man cal specifies the -M parameter, but that wont work here | 15:13 |
| Trent | how can i install xfce desktop environment without installing all of its default programs aswell? | 15:13 |
| HeGuru | necreo: its small -m not capital M. and it works here | 15:14 |
| gentoo-intel | necreo, i think its somewere in the locales | 15:14 |
| gentoo-intel | ill have to google it | 15:14 |
| gentoo-intel | Trent, not as far as i know | 15:14 |
| gentoo-intel | i think xfce nly comes complete | 15:14 |
| necreo | HeGuru: cal -m 9 2011 still prints sunday first here | 15:14 |
| Trent | What about lfxe xD ?? i have tried before, but i just get a programs double up, having programs for GNOME and xfce at the same time, headache ! | 15:15 |
| necreo | gentoo-intel: yes I changed the en_US locale to weekday 2, and the gnome calendar applet got changed, but not cal | 15:15 |
| gentoo-intel | oh ok, im not sure then :s | 15:15 |
| gentoo-intel | Trent, you will always have gnome stuff because your installing 2 des | 15:16 |
| gentoo-intel | Trent, you could use openbox or similar | 15:16 |
| gentoo-intel | and install nothing | 15:16 |
| gentoo-intel | just make the obmenu link to gnome stuff | 15:16 |
| necreo | HeGuru: if you try `cal -m` it prints calendar for this month, monday first? it requires an argument here | 15:17 |
| gentoo-intel | Trent, why not use another ubuntu like xubuntu? | 15:17 |
| Trent | to be honest, i am using xubuntu now, however i wanted to try lxde, but i don't wish to install all of it's default programs :S !! | 15:17 |
| gentoo-intel | Trent, there isnt any for lxde really.. | 15:18 |
| gentoo-intel | lxterm, lxpanel | 15:18 |
| gentoo-intel | dont come with much | 15:18 |
| gentoo-intel | pcmanfm | 15:18 |
| theadmin | gentoo-intel: Thunar | 15:18 |
| gentoo-intel | thats xfce | 15:18 |
| gentoo-intel | or does xubuntu use thunar now? | 15:18 |
| BarkingFish | nvm about the ssh-keygen thing, i found out it was because .ssh in my home dir was owned and controlled by root :) | 15:19 |
| theadmin | gentoo-intel: Oh... | 15:19 |
| gentoo-intel | lubuntu* i mean | 15:19 |
| HeGuru | necreo: can you run cal -V | 15:20 |
| necreo | HeGuru: invalid option (-V) | 15:21 |
| necreo | same for -v and --version | 15:21 |
| HeGuru | necreo: ok i am using cal from util-linux you're using ncal (which is the default) I remember facing the same issue, had to download (maybe compile) cal to replace the standard | 15:21 |

| PARAG0D | synaptic..? i went to FF url... dl new version... i extracted to desktop is it run-mozilla-sh | 15:31 |
| M4d3L | maybe tmp folder is too small? | 15:31 |

| Sidewinder1 | Synaptic. | 15:32 |
| BluesKaj | PARAG0D, what's the file extension ? | 15:32 |
| PARAG0D | ok thank you | 15:32 |
| Gasseus | M4d3L no... /tmp isn't seperate in most cases | 15:32 |

| === ajf is now known as ajf|offline | ||
| lynx____ | I wondered if I could boot from a live cd and type chroot /media/hdc5 at a livecd root terminal and then use aptitude/apt-get clone to reinstall everything | 15:33 |
| Gasseus | Featurefreak banshee is the default. You could try amorak | 15:33 |
| Gasseus | lynx____ and you're running redhat? | 15:34 |
| ViaNocturna85 | PARAG0D, its not officially supported but inside the folder is a file called 'firefox' just run that | 15:34 |
| M4d3L | yeah! my tmp folder is totally full | 15:35 |
| M4d3L | is it possible to add extra tmp space? | 15:36 |
| Gasseus | M4d3L not necessarily. Try rebooting. | 15:36 |
| angelicalmaddr | hello | 15:36 |
| Featurefreak | Gasseus: amarok is a beast by comparison , really heavy,, naw, i'm looking at things like DeadBeef, Guayadeck, radio-tray and such | 15:36 |
| littletinybaby | I just installed thunderbird, and I want to declutter my email notifications panel. How do I remove the evolution mail stuff from that area? | 15:37 |
| M4d3L | why reboot? tmp folder is 1.8go. and my file extracted extracted on my windows computer make 3go | 15:37 |
| Sidewinder1 | Featurefreak, Don't know if it'll work for netbooks but did you look at Juk? | 15:37 |
| Featurefreak | Sidewinder1: nope, thanks i'll check that out too | 15:37 |
| Gasseus | M4d3L Because a reboot will cause /tmp to remove alot of unneccessary junk | 15:37 |
| lynx____ | no | 15:37 |
| Sidewinder1 | Featurefreak, It seemed kinda' simple to me. | 15:38 |
| lynx____ | I am running Debian/. I installed redhat-lsb-4.02-el5.centos.src.rpm | 15:38 |
| lynx____ | and it messed up my system | 15:38 |
| lynx____ | that's why I'm asking, how do I use aptitude clone | 15:38 |
| ikonia | lynx____: ask in #debian | 15:38 |
| Gasseus | Featurefreak: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/deadbeef-ultimate-music-player-for-gnulinux.html | 15:38 |
| ikonia | lynx____: and you should never install packages from another distro | 15:38 |
| lynx____ | I can't ask in debian, I got banned from there | 15:38 |
| ikonia | lynx____: then you can't ask here | 15:38 |
| BluesKaj | lynx____, sounds like you don't listen to advice , put yourself in an unfixable situation and expect ppl to bail you out | 15:39 |
| M4d3L | Gasseus: my tmp folder after the tar fail return to 35mo use | 15:40 |
| M4d3L | I need more space in /tmp to extract | 15:40 |
| Gasseus | M4d3L Try downloading it to your local computer and splitting it up into separate tar files. | 15:40 |
| M4d3L | its a migration backup. virtualmin will not understand it if I change it | 15:41 |
| M4d3L | can I unmount the /tmp and create a folder tmp in /? | 15:41 |
| ikonia | mdsmeu: yes, if nothing is using /tmp | 15:42 |
| Gasseus | m4d3l probably | 15:42 |
| ikonia | M4d3L: yuees, if nothing is currently using /tmp | 15:42 |
| M4d3L | ikonia: and if something is using it? like virtualmin and webmin | 15:42 |
| ikonia | M4d3L you know you shouldn't really be using tools like webmin as they have major security risks ? | 15:43 |
| ikonia | M4d3L the easy way is to remove it from /etc/fstab and just reboot | 15:43 |
| angelicalmaddr | i have an old computer a cdrom and a usb pen drive. i would like to install ubuntu in the pen drive . my old computer dont accept fat32 on the the usb pen drive so right know im restricted to 4gb(fat16). would like to try a boot partition in fat16 and then a larger partition with ubuntu in fat32. anyone can help? | 15:43 |
| Gasseus | I can vouch for what ikonia says about webmin | 15:43 |
| ikonia | angelicalmaddr: don't try to run ubuntu on fat | 15:43 |
| robertf | Hello | 15:44 |
| Sidewinder1 | robertf, Mornin'. | 15:44 |
| M4d3L | what are the security risk? | 15:45 |
| angelicalmaddr | ikonia , maybe on ext4 but i really need a fat16 boot partition | 15:45 |
| robertf | I'm using ubuntu 10.10. In command line, i can't use wifi connection. It worked before | 15:45 |
| ikonia | M4d3L research them | 15:45 |
| ikonia | angelicalmaddr you do'nt need a fat16 boot partition | 15:45 |
| BluesKaj | !webmin | 15:45 |
| ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. | 15:45 |
| ikonia | angelicalmaddr: you can boot directly from ext4 | 15:45 |
| robertf | it works with System / Preferences / network connections | 15:45 |
| robertf | but i'd like to use it in command line | 15:46 |
| angelicalmaddr | ikonia , are you sure any computer can do that? | 15:46 |
| M4d3L | all admin pannel have security risk | 15:46 |
| ikonia | angelicalmaddr yes | 15:46 |
| angelicalmaddr | i guess ive tryed taht and system got stuck at motherboard logo | 15:47 |
| M4d3L | oh and I use webmin locally only anyway. via ssh tunnel | 15:47 |
| angelicalmaddr | ikonia , i guess ive tryed taht and system got stuck at motherboard logo | 15:47 |
| ikonia | angelicalmaddr that's nothing to do with the file system | 15:47 |
| Gasseus | M4d3L There's basically no enforcement of logging in on webmin. | 15:47 |
| Sidewinder1 | angelicalmaddr, Just out of curiosity, how old is your 'puter? | 15:47 |
| M4d3L | so I dont care about this risk with ssh tunnel ;) | 15:47 |
| Gasseus | M4d3L is it set to only accept connections by localhost? | 15:48 |
| angelicalmaddr | ikonia , 7 ,8 years | 15:48 |

| M4d3L | Gasseus: yup | 15:48 |

| Sidewinder1 | angelicalmaddr, My system is at least that old and ubuntu works fine; although I can't address your pendrive situation; just a reassurance, I guess. :-) | 15:49 |

| angelicalmaddr2 | ikonia , if it s not the file system why does it boot on fat16 | 15:51 |
| Gasseus | BluesKaj not every computer has an x-server installed on it. X forwarding is pointless on ubuntu-server | 15:51 |
| ikonia | angelicalmaddr2 no idea | 15:51 |
| Sidewinder1 | angelicalmaddr, Yes, it's a Dell Dimension 4550, circa about 2002. :-( | 15:51 |
| ikonia | angelicalmaddr2: the boot sector is on the masterboot sector of the disk, not the file ysstem, so I suspect you hav enot installed the master boot record properly | 15:51 |
| adminj | irc.rizon.net | 15:51 |
| FiReSTaRT | Sidewinder1: yeah, i had mixed results with dell machines.. that's why i'm using a dual-xeon server as a paperweight | 15:52 |
| Featurefreak | how can i use a tool like radiotray or alltray in Unity? | 15:52 |
| Featurefreak | i run radiotray but i get no tray icon, would seem a little annoying that the tray isn't supported yet they're still in the main repo's | 15:53 |
| * Sidewinder1 Now is totally embarrassed that he's using an antique; once I save some duckettes, watch my smoke. | 15:53 | |
| angelicalmaddr2 | ikonia , i always used the same method (usb creator from live cd) whatever the file system ive tryed | 15:53 |
| ikonia | angelicalmaddr2 that doesn't change what I've said | 15:53 |

| FiReSTaRT | angelicalmaddr2: another oem maybe? i'm sure they all got cute at some point, dell more so than the others.. ibm/hp have been reasonably cool though | 15:55 |
| neverblue | ikonia: ha ha, hardy, harr, harr | 15:55 |

| ikonia | neverblue: why is that funny ? | 15:56 |
| neverblue | ikonia: i would like the Live CD | 15:56 |
| BluesKaj | Gasseus, no kidding , what has webmin got to do with a headless server | 15:56 |
| ikonia | neverblue: the livecd IS the install CD - tha tyou get from ubuntu.com when you click download | 15:56 |
| neverblue | ikonia: and I am assume that you are trying to help me | 15:56 |
| ikonia | neverblue correct, so go to ubuntu.com and click download | 15:56 |
| neverblue | ikonia: so there is not physical distinction between the two now ? | 15:56 |

| neverblue | so now the Live portion of the media has been moved simply to a menu selection upon boot ? | 16:00 |
| ikonia | neverblue it just boots into the desktop by default which is the livecd | 16:00 |
| devish | Abhijit and to restart the panel | 16:00 |
| kensum | peto; go into appearance and click customize and the window boarders. choose a new style and see if that gives it back to you. | 16:00 |
| neverblue | ikonia: im performing this in a VM | 16:00 |
| ikonia | neverblue that doesn't change anything | 16:00 |
| Abhijit | devish, amm?? O.o | 16:01 |
| neverblue | ikonia: i don't appreciate your aggressive attitude | 16:01 |
| ikonia | neverblue I'm not being agressive, I'm stating running it in a VM doesn't change anything | 16:01 |
| neverblue | please, let others assist me, instead | 16:01 |
| angelicalmaddr2 | ikonia , i have no dual boot , does master boot still applies? | 16:01 |
| Abhijit | devish, restart gnome-panel | 16:01 |
| ikonia | angelicalmaddr2: correct | 16:01 |
| devish | Abhijit sure ? is there is a way with using gdm restart | 16:03 |
| Abhijit | devish, gdm is for login manager. but you want panels? | 16:03 |
| angelicalmaddr2 | ikonia , if i install ubuntu on ext4 file system will i be able to access fat16 partitions? | 16:03 |

| angelicalmaddr2 | ikonia, installing boot loader? dont see no option about boot loader when using install cd | 16:15 |
| ikonia | angelicalmaddr2: it's called grub | 16:15 |
| wolfo9 | angelicalmaddr2: use apt-get install grub-pc in terminal | 16:17 |
| angelicalmaddr2 | ikonia, when installing from live cd grub is not mentioned | 16:18 |
| ikonia | angelicalmaddr2: it should be | 16:18 |
| wolfo9 | after you install, keep running the live cd | 16:18 |
| angelicalmaddr2 | wolfo9 , and then? | 16:19 |
| wolfo9 | and then use "apt-get install grub-pc" in terminal | 16:19 |

| Guest72946 | a built in intel wireless card | 16:25 |
| wolfo9 | so you said earlier that you max at 4mbps down, not up, on the wifi card | 16:25 |

| jiohdi | xangua, you do not have to worry about bookmarks ever again | 16:29 |

| wolfo9 | mb is bigger than kb | 16:30 |
| Guest72946 | I know | 16:30 |

| Guest72946 | no lol it is 12MBPS on ethernet .6MBPS on wifi | 16:31 |

| karnivore | hi. I was wondering how gnome login handles password input and whether it is possible to pipe the password information to a script. This is to allow automatic mapping of network drives requiring authentication. | 16:33 |
| wolfo9 | karnivore: no | 16:33 |
| computerx | karnivore: Is this a cifs/samba/windows mapping? | 16:33 |
| karnivore | yup | 16:34 |
| karnivore | i have the script that works | 16:34 |
| karnivore | but i have to use zenity to prompt user for the password again | 16:34 |
| wolfo9 | Guest72946: go to the ##hardware channel | 16:34 |
| computerx | Use the mount option -o password=secret | 16:34 |
| Featurefreak | ok, so if i minimize an app that sets a "minize to tray icon" option, is there anyway to recover the app while in Unity? | 16:34 |

| crash1hd | I am going from an intel chip to an amd chip (New motherboard) and was wondering am I going to run into headaches upgrading ubuntu or am I better off doing a fresh install? | 16:35 |
| BluesKaj | crash1hd, clean install is best | 16:36 |
| computerx | karnivore: No, that will take a plain, typed in password, unless you can source it from elsewhere like an environment variable, file etc in which case (assuming you're running mount as a command) you can use backticks `` like mount -o password=`cat mypasswordfile` | 16:37 |

Ideas? | 16:50 |
| computerx | Lockzi: There's a package that should include the pcre tools, I think it's php5-dev | 16:50 |
| rokra | Hi | 16:51 |
| Lockzi | computerx: Maybe so, but it would not include a version of pcre above 8 as I need. Therefore I've compiled my own pcre version, but now need to compile PHP5 with that support | 16:51 |
| hareldvd | ping | 16:51 |
| computerx | Lockzi: Though if you really want to know, php -r 'phpinfo();' | 16:51 |

| Paolo_CT | rumpe1: I dont know what you mean, I didnt change anything after I installed ubuntu 11.04 (fresh install), so I guess thats a yes | 17:24 |
| macer1 | Pici: no irc account, just launchpad | 17:25 |
| computerx | chaoshax: Well then, that's crazy. I don't see how linux would be failing the file creation. Either it's a weird samba option, or the nas box itself | 17:25 |
| chaoshax | Umm I will keep playing | 17:25 |
| chaoshax | computerx, I am pretty new to this stuff, should the group be root?> | 17:26 |
| computerx | Group won't matter, because as your ls showed me, it's group not-writable anyway | 17:26 |
| Paolo_CT | rumpe1: It was so sudden, after I reboot, I got a message from nautilus saying I could not create the necessary folders, and that I should manually do it (I didnt do it) | 17:26 |
| computerx | In this case, as you're the user, and it's owned by you, your rights take precidence | 17:26 |
| chaoshax | computerx, thanks for your help, I will keep trying. | 17:27 |
| rumpe1 | Paolo_CT, you sure the mounting of your encrypted container "erased" data or were it just covered by the mounting? If you unmount your encrypted container, do the erased folders reappear? | 17:27 |
| chaoshax | computerx, should I be able to chmod the mount? | 17:27 |
| computerx | Can't hurt | 17:27 |
| computerx | You'll have to umount first though | 17:28 |
| computerx | Wanna throw me the fstab or mount line, /msg is fine. Take out your password. | 17:28 |
| chaoshax | computerx, k one sec | 17:29 |
| computerx | chaoshax: tbh, I have toothache and I'm restructuring a fileserver's svn, samba and file structure. I'm happy to have the distraction of other people's problems. | 17:29 |
| urist_ | where do I check what version of ubuntu im running? | 17:29 |
| Pici | urist_: lsb_release -a | 17:30 |
| mrh | hey | 17:30 |
| urist_ | cool. thanks Pici | 17:30 |
| Paolo_CT | rumpe1: OK, I just unmount it (Not very familiar with encrypted folders) and now I just see the readme and the access your private data files | 17:30 |
| mrh | I got dvorak layout in my keyboard pref. if i remove the layout it reappears the next time i login. how can I remove it permanentlyŋ | 17:31 |

| usr_ | hello, how can I share an internet connection using my computer? | 17:34 |
| usr_ | I have two network interfaces and only one of them connects to the internet. Can I share it with other devices/ | 17:35 |
| OerHeks | usr_ yes you can | 17:35 |
| OerHeks | !ics | 17:35 |
| ubottu | If you want to share the internet connection of your Ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing | 17:35 |
| usr_ | !nice | 17:36 |
| ubottu | 'Nice' is a property of a process that determines how willing it is to give CPU time to other processes. A higher value makes it more likely to give away time. A negative value makes it less likely. Values are from -19 to 19, with 0 being the default. For more information, type 'man nice' at a terminal. | 17:36 |
| usr_ | !firestarter | 17:36 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Gufw (GNOME) and Guarddog (KDE Lucid and Maverick) also exist. | 17:36 |
| fantomas | Hi all. How can I purge Evolution? useless stuff | 17:37 |

| fantomas | OerHeks: o'rly? :) Ok, I'll try. Afair it was built deep inside ubuntu before | 17:38 |
| rumpe1 | Paolo_CT, that's always the case, when you mount something atop of a mountpoint. It just covers the former content. Quite handy sometimes. | 17:39 |

| Mneumonic | I have a problem with xubuntu 11.04 that I think I figured out the solution to but can't figure it out in xubuntu | 17:54 |
| martin_ | what was the name of the offtopic channel please somebody give a link... | 17:54 |
| Mneumonic | When starting certain games fullscreen my system locks up. In Ubuntu I was able to install compizsettings manager thing and disable "sync to vbank". Is there a way to do this in xubuntu 11.04 | 17:55 |
| Mneumonic | I didn't think xubuntu used compiz | 17:55 |
| edbian | eliezer: Read about file permissions: http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/filepermissions.html But basically if you run sudo chmod 700 /path/to/program and sudo chown root:root /path/to/program then only root can run it and they'll have to sudo program which asks for a passwor.d | 17:55 |
| edbian | Mneumonic: I can | 17:55 |
| edbian | Mneumonic: it can* | 17:55 |
| shadowman | where to copy iso after installing grub2 on usb | 17:55 |
| eliezer | edbian: thanks | 17:55 |
| edbian | Mneumonic: Install ccsm and run it in xfce and see if it fixes the problem | 17:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Mneumonic: it dosent. | 17:56 |
| Mneumonic | doing that now | 17:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Mneumonic: im not even sure how a compiz setting lik ethat wold be affecting a game. - what game were having the issues? | 17:56 |

| dbinoj | does new files created by root automatically given ownership of 1st user created after root? | 17:57 |
| Mneumonic | Enemy territory and the gfceu emulator, it is the compiz setting in regular Ubuntu, it fixed it for a lot of people on the forum and myself when using ubuntu | 17:57 |
| wolfric | what's the disk utility program named? Or how would you even find out. if i say, wanted to execute it from command line | 17:58 |
| edbian | wolfric: The way I find out is to drag it on the desktop, then look at the properties | 17:58 |
| mrh | I got dvorak layout in my keyboard pref. if i remove the layout it reappears the next time i login. how can I remove it permanently? | 17:58 |
| edbian | wolfric: palimpsest btw | 17:58 |
| mrh | is there a conf file I can look into? | 17:59 |
| wolfric | edbian: thanks | 17:59 |
| edbian | wolfric: sure | 17:59 |
| Mneumonic | Nope, that didn't fix it | 17:59 |
| Dr_Willis | Mneumonic: what video chipset/drivers are you using? | 17:59 |
| Mneumonic | I didn't think it would, since I didn't think xubuntu uses compiz | 17:59 |
| Mneumonic | ATI Radeon HD 5650 | 17:59 |
| Mneumonic | using the catalyst 11.8 | 17:59 |
| Mneumonic | I don't have this issue in ubuntu/xubuntu 10.10 | 18:00 |
| auronandace | Mneumonic: you need to run compiz --replace | 18:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Mneumonic: i would check the catalyst control panel tool - see if theyhave some vblak settings | 18:00 |
| Mneumonic | Theres nothing in the catalyst except changing my primary graphics card and my power settings | 18:00 |
| Dr_Willis | odd. cagalyst control panel on the one ati box here had a whole lot of settings. there maybe a way to enable it in the xorg.conf then it would do it for all the desktops/wm's | 18:01 |
| Mneumonic | I have wait for vertical refresh to off, unless application specifies | 18:01 |
| Dr_Willis | try turning that setting on? | 18:01 |
| Barridus | anyone know the best way to add exfat file system support for usb drives? | 18:02 |
| Mneumonic | put vertical refresh on? | 18:02 |
| dbinoj | does new files created by root automatically given ownership of 1st user created after root? | 18:02 |
| Mneumonic | gonna try it, might freeze up, brb | 18:02 |
| xaphir | jribas: I thought that dpkg -l got installed packages, but your grep tells me that's not the whole story | 18:02 |

| hareldvd | Even though the numlock is on numeric keyboard does the arrows. Any idea? ( It's a laptop on a docking station.) | 18:04 |
| Mneumonic | Same problem with Vertical Refresh on | 18:04 |
| BarkingFish | hareldvd, sometimes there's a problem with reversed leds | 18:05 |
| BarkingFish | try hitting your numlock button until the led goes out, then switch it on again | 18:05 |
| BarkingFish | if that doesn't work, try it with the led off | 18:05 |
| Trusardi | hey one question what could not work if i install 64 bit version of ubuntu? | 18:06 |
| Mneumonic | I wish I would not have bought a switchable graphics ATI laptop, nothing but issues with linux | 18:06 |
| Icculus | anyone help me out? PS i am very new to ubuntu... | 18:07 |
| Pricey | Icculus: What's up? | 18:07 |
| Icculus | Well i want to watch something on my projector from my laptop, with U Studio 11.04 on it... but I cant seem to figure out how to get my s-video output working | 18:08 |
| Dr_Willis | Mneumonic: yep - new 'cutting edge' stuff like that - can be an issue. but normally they get sorted out in the following months. | 18:08 |
| unicum | so.. any ideas to.. ubuntu being stupid on handling ad-hoc connections? | 18:08 |
| Icculus | i tried so many things, but as i said i am a newb and have trouble understanding some stuff | 18:08 |
| Dr_Willis | Icculus: whats the video chipset on the laptop? | 18:08 |
| Icculus | i believe it is a nvidia card | 18:09 |
| hareldvd | BarkingFish, didn't help. Any more ideas? | 18:09 |
| kyle__ | Is anyone here familiar, really familiar, with running ubuntu-server on a core2 based mac-mini? | 18:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Icculus: check the lspci command output and be sure. | 18:09 |
| BarkingFish | hareldvd, which laptop do you have? | 18:09 |
| hareldvd | It's an old Fujitsu Siemens S7020 or something. | 18:10 |
| BarkingFish | hm | 18:11 |
| BarkingFish | one moment | 18:11 |
| Mneumonic | Is ubuntu 11.04 this buggy for other people also? | 18:11 |
| Mneumonic | It seems kinda frustrating so far | 18:11 |
| downs | When i go to play MMO games such as alien arena my internet is disconnected and it will not find the master server to list all game servers is there something i can do to fix this? | 18:11 |
| Icculus | Alright Dr_Willis... I guess i will have to troubleshoot it later, i am on my windows PC now, dont have my laptop near | 18:11 |
| BarkingFish | hareldvd, from the looks of that laptop, the numeric keyboard is built in to the regular keyboard, not as a seperate pad, right? | 18:12 |
| Icculus | Just mad i wiped windows off my laptop cause s-video worked in 1 click on that, baaahhh | 18:12 |
| kyle__ | Mneumonic: It's been a bit troublesome, but most of the issues are unity-related. If you don't have autologin turned on, you can select your session before you log in, so with 11, I always choose gnome :) | 18:12 |
| mongy | Mneumonic, sudo aticonfig --vs=off and reboot | 18:12 |
| liberty | hello all | 18:12 |
| Mneumonic | if this works i love you mongy | 18:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Icculus: for my nvidia based machines. I install the nvidia drivers. use the nvidia-settings tool and enable the tv out... if its not nvidia.. well.. no idea | 18:12 |
| jiohdi | is there a way to get ubuntu to force nvdia cards to run in a normal mode that does not require nvdia drivers? | 18:12 |
| mongy | Mneumonic, I use the opposite to get rid of tearing | 18:12 |
| hareldvd | BarkingFish, Yea, however I use a docking station to which a regular keyboard is attached. | 18:13 |
| downs | When i go to play MMO games such as alien arena my internet is disconnected and it will not find the master server to list all game servers is there something i can do to fix this? | 18:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Icculus: ive had svideo out work on nvidia machines befor with no clicking needed. :) but even finding a machine with svideo out these days is getting rare. | 18:13 |
| hareldvd | It used to be OK. I guess I misconfigured something. | 18:13 |
| Barridus | jiohdi, not if you want to have any form of opengl or video acceleration | 18:13 |
| BarkingFish | it may be then, that the docking station needs a different keyboard layout to the one you have on the laptop, it's obviously interpreting the attached keyboard as the keymap on the laptop. | 18:13 |
| liberty | can I ask for a bit of help? | 18:14 |
| Icculus | true.... I did actually install the nvidia-settings tool, and when i open it it tells me something like i need to edit a X file or whatever... uhg sorry i feel so dumb cause i JUST started using ubuntu hah | 18:14 |
| BarkingFish | the two of which are likely to be different layouts, hareldvd | 18:14 |
| kyle__ | mongy: Wait, what does that do? I had a weeks worth of frustration after trying to disable the ati closed source driver. | 18:14 |
| downs | When i go to play MMO games such as alien arena my internet is disconnected and it will not find the master server to list all game servers is there something i can do to fix this? | 18:14 |
| jiohdi | Barridus, I run openbox I do not believe I need all that do I? | 18:14 |
| BarkingFish | What layout is the normal keyboard? QWERTY 105 Key? | 18:14 |
| mongy | kyle__, sets vsync off | 18:14 |
| mongy | kyle__, man aticonfig | 18:14 |
| Darkenvy | whats the command to check free disk space? free -v? | 18:14 |
| Dr_Willis | Icculus: you set the settings.. and save the settings. they save to the xorg.conf then you restart the X server normally | 18:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Icculus: you need to enable 'twinview' | 18:15 |
| hareldvd | BarkingFish, I think I use qwerty 105 how can I verify? | 18:15 |
| Mneumonic | That didn't work either | 18:15 |
| Mneumonic | as soon as my game goes fullscreen it locks up | 18:15 |
| Mneumonic | its weird because it doesn't do it to Sauerbraten or WoW through wine | 18:15 |
| Mneumonic | only a few other games | 18:15 |
| BarkingFish | hareldvd, does it have a QWERTY layout and a seperate number pad to the right? | 18:15 |
| BarkingFish | if so, it's likely that's a 105 key | 18:15 |
| mongy | Mneumonic, have you also set the option in CCC? | 18:16 |
| hareldvd | Yep | 18:16 |
| Mneumonic | what option | 18:16 |
| BarkingFish | one moment because I have to ask the crew here for help :) | 18:16 |
| hareldvd | BarkingFish, Sorry I thought you refered to configuration. | 18:16 |
| Icculus | alright, i will try to figure that out... the nvidia program gives me an error right when i run it... i guess i need to grab my laptop and try stuff out | 18:16 |
| BarkingFish | Guys, where is the system preferences option in Ubuntu to change the keyboard layout? | 18:16 |
| mongy | Mneumonic, well in catalyst 11.xx you have tear free option (which I disable as it slows things down a lot) and then there is the setting in 3D | 18:16 |
| computerx | Before I screw up my whole PC, can I make one mount in /home/storage, and a line under in the fstab, make another mount in /home/storage/other ? | 18:17 |
| Mneumonic | 11.8 catalyst doesn't have that option | 18:17 |
| mongy | Mneumonic, mine it does | 18:17 |
| BarkingFish | hareldvd, the layout on your laptop and the keyboard on the docking station are most likely mismatched. It sounds to me like the laptop is interpreting the keypresses as being on its own keymap (for the laptop keyboard) rather than the keymap for the one you have plugged in. | 18:17 |
| hareldvd | BarkingFish, mongy I still use 10.04 | 18:17 |
| mongy | Mneumonic, Display options has tear free and More Settings has the vsync | 18:18 |
| Mneumonic | I have Welcome, Information, and under 3D its Anti-Aliasing, Anti-Aliasing Mode, Anisotropic Filtering, Mipmap Detail, and More settings | 18:18 |
| Dr_Willis | mongy: i was thinking the same thing. I saw some tear-free settings when i was testing out differnt disrtos on this ati box. | 18:18 |
| Mneumonic | my CCC doesnt have display options | 18:18 |
| hareldvd | BarkingFish, Interesting. Any tip how to cure this problem? | 18:18 |
| BarkingFish | This is what I'm trying to find out from the guys here, hareldvd - I use kubuntu, not ubuntu, and some of the prefs are in different places :) | 18:19 |
| === Guest55840 is now known as raven_ | ||
| Dr_Willis | Mneumonic: you using 10.04 11.04? or what version exactly of ubuntu/xubuntu? | 18:19 |

| ubottu | To switch your keyboard layout on GNOME: System -> Preferences -> Keyboard | KDE: System Settings -> Regional & Language -> Keyboard Layout | XFCE: Settings -> Settings Manager -> Keyboard, Layout | 18:19 |
| Mneumonic | Xubuntu 11.04 with the ATI 11.8 catalyst from ati.com | 18:19 |
| Mneumonic | I have to use 11.7 or 11.8 because i have switchable graphics and those are the only catalysts that support it | 18:19 |
| BarkingFish | hareldvd, try looking at what ubottu just posted up, that may be what you need | 18:19 |
| Mneumonic | well 11.5 and 11.6 do, but its really buggy | 18:20 |
| Dr_Willis | could be the linux tools/drivers for the ati card. are not fully aware of that chipsets features. and are not showing everything. Mneumonic | 18:20 |
| mongy | Mneumonic, and you dont see this ? http://i.imgur.com/wQb6p.png | 18:20 |

| hareldvd | BarkingFish, Didn't find any settings for the different keyboards. | 18:20 |
| Mneumonic | nope, under vertical refresh i only have the slider | 18:21 |
| mongy | Dr_Willis, Mneumonic true, might be chipset thing. mine is 4650 | 18:21 |
| Dr_Willis | I got some old wimpy built in ati on this desktop. | 18:21 |

| Paolo_CT | rumpe1: Solved it, I just needed to erase the folders that were in with the encryped one (I dont know why they were together) | 18:22 |
| Paolo_CT | rumpe1: Thanks for your help | 18:22 |
| Icculus | Ahh okay my laptop has an ATI graphics card with s-video out... maybe I can problemsolve from there on | 18:22 |
| Mneumonic | Yes I've run 10.10 both Ubuntu and Xubuntu, and also Mint 9 and 10 | 18:22 |
| Mneumonic | they run really well | 18:23 |
| Mneumonic | no issues with any games freezing full screen | 18:23 |

| hareldvd | BarkingFish, Nothing. | 18:23 |
| Mneumonic | I would honestly still be running 10.10 but there is one really annoying bug i couldn't figure out | 18:23 |
| === dark is now known as Guest31767 | ||
| Icculus | yea, like i said i am a computer idiot, haha | 18:24 |
| Mneumonic | everytime i turn my computer on in anything older than 11.04 my brightness starts at 0 and i have to turn it up | 18:24 |
| Mneumonic | It got really annoying after about 100 times | 18:24 |
| BarkingFish | hareldvd, I guess I'm gonna have to turn you over to the ubuntuites then :) I'm sorry I've not been able to help you. | 18:24 |
| Dr_Willis | go test the next release. see if it still does it.. file a bug report if it does Mneumonic.. it might get fixed. | 18:25 |
| BarkingFish | Figured to go through the easy stuff first. | 18:25 |

| cousin_luigi | The keymap indicator disappeared: how can I get it back on my panel? (11.04/gnome) | 18:26 |
| Mneumonic | I'd prefer to not have to have windows on my laptop | 18:27 |
| Mneumonic | i used to dual boot and do the virtualbox thing | 18:27 |
| domn8rz | cousin_luigi you may not have partitioned the drive for your ubuntu image properly | 18:27 |
| Mneumonic | if I'm going to run windows and then ubuntu in a virtualbox it seems to defeat the purpose of running linux | 18:28 |

| domn8rz | BarkingFish, thanks that is who I meant | 18:30 |
| domn8rz | cousin_luigi, I appologize | 18:30 |
| mongy | Dr_Willis, it usually wont build in newer ubuntu releases until kernel freeze and right up to the final release...usually anyway so I have not even bothered trying in this one.. heh | 18:30 |
| Soothsayer | BarkingFish, cousin_luigi : basically, system dual boots windows & ubuntu. When I modify or create new files in the NTFS drives through Ubuntu, it appears corrupt on both Windows & Ubuntu after a reboot | 18:31 |
| Dr_Willis | mongy: on this desktop box - the gpl drivers work for me in unity and movies - so i rarely even notice. | 18:31 |
| domn8rz | Soothsayer, you may not have partitioned the drive for your ubuntu image properly | 18:31 |
| cousin_luigi | Soothsayer: sounds like unclean unmounting. | 18:31 |
| MasterOfDisaster | Soothsayer: ntfs3g? | 18:31 |
| === Guest8536 is now known as nihil39 | ||

| mongy | Dr_Willis, radeon driver works ok but the heat/fullspeed fans is a show stopper | 18:32 |
| Soothsayer | cousin_luigi, domn8rz this has been happening since the first day I installed Ubuntu . (I'm on 11.04) | 18:32 |
| Dr_Willis | Soothsayer: how are you mounting that ntfs? you using a fstab entry? if so paste it here. | 18:32 |
| cousin_luigi | Soothsayer: Have you tried explicitly unmounting the ntfs partition before shutdown? | 18:32 |
| Soothsayer | MasterOfDisaster, I'm not sure what package is being used. But I remember installing that package. | 18:32 |
| BarkingFish | and hareldvd - I would assume they listen, the channel is quite busy so if you just ask your question again, and hold on, someone else will pick you up in a bit :) | 18:32 |

| domn8rz | Soothsayer, are you runnign dual boot, or virtual, or just ubuntu | 18:32 |
| Soothsayer | Dr_Willis, I'm mounting it using Nautilus or I have those drive icons in my ubuntu top panel. | 18:33 |
| Soothsayer | domn8rz, dual boot. | 18:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Soothsayer: so its auto-mounting on access. | 18:33 |
| MasterOfDisaster | Soothsayer: IIRC using the ntfs kernel module produces such effects, make sure ntfs3g is used. | 18:33 |
| Soothsayer | Dr_Willis, Yes | 18:33 |

| cousin_luigi | bbl | 18:34 |
| MasterOfDisaster | Soothsayer: IIRC=if I recall correctly | 18:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Soothsayer: there wsa some old options (rarely used) to auto convert cr/lf in files on ntfs. that can mess thingd up. but i dont think it would be the default for how you are mounting them. You could mount them by hand via ntfs-3g andsee if the problem still happens | 18:34 |
| Soothsayer | Dr_Willis, Master ok, I could try ntfs-3g. Do I have to remove anything first? | 18:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Soothsayer: it should allreadybe installed.. nothing to do but use the command as needed | 18:35 |
| domn8rz | IAW Dr_Willis | 18:35 |

| kyle__ | OerHeks: There's actually a fsck binary for each FS, so theoretically, there could be one for linux. But why would anyone bother? | 18:50 |

| === kreative is now known as Kreative` | ||
| Barridus | kyle__, is that a yes or a no? XD | 18:54 |
| Antonis | qin, do you have a link to that theme? I am quite good with ambiance but I want to give it a try anyway | 18:54 |
| kyle__ | Barridus: It's the first I've heard anyone actually using it. I've seen many students use NTFS on their dlarge drives, but never actually seen someone using exfat. | 18:55 |
| qin | Antonis: It is build in theme | 18:55 |
| kyle__ | x-large not dlarge. | 18:55 |
| Barridus | kyle__, ntfs is designed for spinning hdd's, exfat is designed for flash | 18:55 |
| w30 | Antonis, well, you could dig through your icons, find the png graphic and replace it with a transparent one. I have done such but it is a lot of hunting and digging. | 18:56 |
| Antonis | qin, oh.. I tried it but it won't make it transparent =) | 18:56 |
| kyle__ | Barridus: It's a version of fat, so "designed" would be a stretch. Yes I'm biased, but still. It's an extention to fat. Not good. | 18:56 |
| Antonis | w30, I thought of that but I guess I was too lazy to dig around before asking.. :P | 18:56 |
| qin | Antonis: then w30 is more than right, licate files of package. | 18:57 |
| Barridus | kyle__, i ralize it's MS, but it's true that's what it's for | 18:57 |
| w30 | Antonis, you also have to find the right sized one 32x32 or whatever *sigh* | 18:57 |
| Barridus | realize* | 18:57 |
| rumpe1 | Barridus, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exfat: ".. a license from Microsoft is required in order to make and distribute exFAT implementations" sounds wonderful :X | 18:57 |
| kyle__ | Barridus: My guess is it will come with ubuntu by default as soon as the FUSE driver is out of beta. | 18:58 |
| Barridus | ah it's in beta, ok good enough answer for now thanks kyle | 18:58 |
| Soothsayer | Yes, chkdisk in windows is showing errors on certain index entries | 18:58 |
| Barridus | kyle__* | 18:58 |
| kyle__ | Barridus: And again, it's designed to let users use something other than NTFS on removable media. I see nothing reading what little info I can find that says it was actually designed for flash :) | 18:58 |
| Antonis | w30, I could make on myself no problem.. I just have to find the right icon.. any help with that? where could it be loaded? I think all applets come from a gnome package or something? | 18:59 |
| dean | Hi all could anyone tell me if they have managed to get mintbackup running in ubuntu 11.04? | 18:59 |
| kyle__ | Barridus: Oooh wait. Looks like they have pattents for contiguous file allocation, so yea, it would be specifically for flash. My bad! | 18:59 |
| Barridus | yeah heh | 19:00 |
| Antonis | w30, also, I change to a theme that also changes the icon of the applet BUT the background itself remains colored :\ so I guess no luck in changing the icon | 19:00 |
| Antonis | hm.. | 19:00 |
| w30 | Antonis, poke around in /usr/share/icons; and have a lot of patience and time. | 19:00 |

| kyle__ | Anyone out here know how to reboot a mac-mini running ubuntu-server remotely? Issuing a standard reboot hangs at the end, as does a standard shutdown -h now. I can power the boxes off remotely using "poweroff", but they won't wake on lan, so that's not useful. | 19:09 |
| MasterOfDisaster | kyle__: any log output that can help find out why it's hanging? | 19:09 |
| w30 | usr_, they make hardware for that, I don't know the cost though. | 19:10 |

| kajino | i need to make an executable that make me switch from dhcp to manual specific ip... and another file to set dhcp up again. | 19:39 |
| kopecito | Hello, is this a know bug? http://i.imgur.com/kOgNp.png And how to correct it please : ) | 19:39 |
| computerx | It's theme specific I believe | 19:40 |
| computerx | Change the theme and see how that looks | 19:40 |

| BatBlaster | what language is that in | 19:40 |
| jweinberg | anyone? | 19:41 |
| MasterOfDisaster | kajino: switch /etc/network/interfaces around with a script and restart networking? | 19:41 |
| kajino | yep... :D | 19:41 |
| guntbert | kopecito: there you will also find instructions on how to look for bug reports | 19:41 |
| kajino | i've 5 ip and i've to switch among them.. and sometimes i've to get back to dhcp server | 19:41 |
| quentusrex | Anyone know of a good process to update perl in ubuntu 11.04? | 19:42 |
| MasterOfDisaster | doesn't network-manager have support for different profiles? | 19:42 |
| kajino | MasterOfDisaster, i think it's something with ifconfig wlan0 address .. but i've to make executable and it should not have conflict with wicd possibly ^^;; | 19:42 |
| IdleOne | victor_: take a look at comment #6 on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1126613 | 19:42 |
| kajino | hm? i think not.. | 19:42 |
| LinuxNoob | Hello, can someone tells me, how can i set a password for root | 19:43 |
| quentusrex | I'm running into a perl segfault in 5.10 that is fixed in later releases, but they are not yet backported to 11.04. | 19:43 |
| victor_ | ok thanks IdleOne | 19:43 |
| kopecito | guntbert, thanks | 19:43 |
| kajino | in windows i used a bat file with netsh command | 19:43 |
| guntbert | !root LinuxNoob | 19:43 |
| guntbert | !root | LinuxNoob | 19:43 |
| ubottu | LinuxNoob: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 19:43 |
| IdleOne | victor_: there are a few different solutions and links in that thread but one should hopefully work for you. | 19:43 |
| MasterOfDisaster | kajino: have a look at network-manager, perhaps it's already capable of the thing you want | 19:44 |
| mukti | I'm having a problem with my sound. When I log in and turn on my computer, it makes the correct sounds. When I am logged in and I try to play a song or an online video, there is no sound. | 19:44 |

| abstrakt | how do I get ubuntu server to link me up to my ssh-agent properly when I log in? | 19:50 |
| LinuxNoob | err how can i install grub? i got 2 linux OS but my last linux deleted the entry of my first linux. | 19:50 |
| abstrakt | each time I log in I can see ssh-agent running as a process, but I can't ssh to anything until I first run exec ssh-agent bash | 19:50 |
| LinuxNoob | !ask doesnt work | 19:51 |
| ubottu | LinuxNoob: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 19:51 |
| mukti | okay, that worked. How would I restart my sound without restarting my computer? /etc/init.d/alsa restart ? | 19:51 |
| abstrakt | the problem being, if I add "exec ssh-agent bash" to my .bashrc it hangs my system | 19:51 |

| RussellAlan | Okay, so been trying to fix this for several days.... I installed Ubuntu to /sda3 with /sda4 ext-2 ... Windows 7 is on /sda1 ... When it asked me.. where do I want to install "boot loader" I chose /sda3 ... so now no Grub is loading at all... need help | 20:22 |
| Gasseus | Umm... I had a hard disk failure, and I need to delete the LVM it was a part of. How would I force this with the server install disk? | 20:22 |
| RussellAlan | Should I just reinstall ubuntu with bootloader on /sda1? | 20:22 |
| littletinybaby | Anyone know of any good linux blogs that teach commands and tips? | 20:23 |
| Gasseus | RussellAlan /dev/sda never /dev/sda1 | 20:23 |
| RussellAlan | Or use boot repair, although boot repair did not give me the option to have multiple os boot | 20:23 |
| RussellAlan | sorry Gasseus, tis what i mean | 20:23 |
| Gasseus | And yeah. It will automatically detect | 20:23 |
| RussellAlan | What will, boot loader? because it didnt give me the option for /dev/sda1 | 20:23 |
| RussellAlan | i mean boot repair Gasseus | 20:24 |
| Gasseus | The boot loader installer program will automatically detect all os's and kernel's on the disk | 20:24 |
| Gasseus | even if it says it doesn't detect it. | 20:25 |
| Gasseus | (much to my shagrin) | 20:25 |
| RussellAlan | Gasseus: but when I told the Live CD ubuntu installer... I told it to install boot loader on /dev/sda3, so I'm taking it that it is not loading from that partition first and not seeing it. | 20:26 |
| Seryth | Okay, so opera crashed after loading a HD video, which with my internet takes a long, long time. Is this vid stored in the cache somewhere? If so, where? /home/.opera/cache? | 20:28 |

| computerx | Was it streaming video, HTML5? | 20:29 |

| Soothsayer | Jordan_U, ok. Cause I can't create more than 4 partitions which are primary it says. So I'm deleting swap. Creating an extended partition first and then going to create swap and my other partitions inside this extended partition. Sounds right? | 20:48 |

| tab1293 | barberan, yes if i set up a vpn that would be better. but im assuming while im on campus my ip address will constantly change so i cant configure NFS to remember me | 20:58 |
| tab1293 | zykotick9_, i looked at that but ir seems outdated | 20:58 |
| zoopp | barberan: It's got to be a driver issue. | 20:58 |
| barberan | zoopp, haven't you ever tried another OS ? | 20:58 |
| Jordan_U | cinematic: Why can't you use a CD? It makes things a lot simpler with intel macs. | 20:58 |
| zoopp | barberan: no, but few months ago I was using OpenSuse and I had on such problems. | 20:59 |
| barberan | zoopp, yeah, I'm going to exclude hardware issues by recommending you trying some other operating system | 20:59 |
| barberan | zoopp, I'd recommend some live-cd(live-usb) distros as they have all the stuff you need and fresh(another) drivers | 21:00 |
| zoopp | barberan: well I had no problem while using OpenSUSE.. so I'm a bit confused | 21:01 |
| cinematic | Jordan_U: Because my super drive is toast, usb is my only option. | 21:01 |
| barberan | zoopp, have not you tried googling about your Wi-Fi adapter and operating system you use ?May be it is quite widespread ? | 21:02 |
| zoopp | barberan: well it is actually..I had found a fix for it back in the 10.10 time but I don't seem to find it again. | 21:04 |
| Jordan_U | cinematic: Follow the mac specific directions @ http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download and do *not* use the +mac iso. | 21:04 |
| Soothsayer | Jordan_U, MasterOfDisaster : I created a new ext3 partition using gparted. But I can't seem to paste or create files inside it. How exactly do permissions work in such new partitions? | 21:06 |
| jack_ | Soothsayer: why not? are you getting errors? | 21:06 |
| jack_ | are the files just not showing up? | 21:06 |
| MasterOfDisaster | Soothsayer: cd /mnt ; ls -lhA | 21:06 |
| Somelauw | I want to install smart: http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/smartmontools But I don't know my architecture. amd64 or i386? I want it because I want to check an external usb harddisk from hitachi. I suspect it is broken. | 21:06 |
| MasterOfDisaster | Soothsayer: use chown on the mountpoint | 21:07 |
| Soothsayer | jack_, it's a new partition. so there's nothing in it except the lost+found directory | 21:07 |
| Soothsayer | MasterOfDisaster, hmm | 21:07 |
| Dr_Willis | !info smartmontools | 21:07 |

| Jordan_U | Somelauw: Why aren't you using Ubuntu Software Center / apt-get ? | 21:07 |
| Soothsayer | MasterOfDisaster, ls -lhA is gives a "total 0" | 21:07 |
| MasterOfDisaster | Soothsayer: or /media or whereever it's mounted | 21:07 |
| Soothsayer | MasterOfDisaster, right, It seems to be owned by 'root' | 21:08 |
| waz | Hello | 21:08 |
| Somelauw | Jordan_U: Or aptitude? Because I was searching for smarttcl while it it called smartmontools. But I found it in te list. | 21:09 |
| robin0800 | Soothsayer, did you run gparted using sudo? | 21:10 |
| Soothsayer | robin0800, well yes, it asks me for a password the moment I launch it right. | 21:10 |
| zoopp | barberan: I think I'll do something stupid, I'll install the package from oneric for my wireless card. Maybe it'll fix it.. | 21:10 |
| barberan | zoopp, in your case you should try everything) but do not forget about data backup, etc. | 21:11 |
| robin0800 | Soothsayer, so anything you create will be owned by root | 21:11 |
| Soothsayer | robin0800, oh right. Did a --> sudo chown -R foo:foo 'myvolume' | 21:12 |

| victorius | tata: what's your problem and have you tried googling it? | 21:15 |
| victorius | Hi Spooky | 21:15 |
| Spooky | Speak Portuguese? | 21:16 |
| Dr_Willis | via makes video cards? hmm. is that a S3> | 21:16 |
| tata | yes, S3 | 21:17 |
| AlessonZaire | Spooky I do | 21:17 |
| Spooky | Preciso de ajuda... | 21:17 |
| tata | problem is bad googlearth and very bad fullscreen on you tube | 21:17 |
| AlessonZaire | Spooky open a pvt with me please, it's wrong to speak portuguese on international channels | 21:18 |
| Dr_Willis | tata: any time ive seen the terms 's3' and 'linux' together.. the results are never good. | 21:20 |
| BluesKaj | !pt > AlessonZaire > Spooky | 21:20 |
| ubottu | BluesKaj: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 21:20 |
| Dr_Willis | tata: You may consider yoirself lucky the system is even useable. :( | 21:20 |
| BluesKaj | !pt > AlessonZaire | 21:20 |
| ubottu | AlessonZaire, please see my private message | 21:20 |
| AlessonZaire | BluesKaj no need for that, I'm also there | 21:21 |
| Technicus | I have an external hard drive that will all of the sudden not mount. How can I correct this? | 21:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Technicus: what filesystem is on it? | 21:22 |
| tata | Dr: ok | 21:22 |
| Technicus | Dr_Willis; I am not sure . . . probably NTFS or fat 32 . . . | 21:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Technicus: check dmesg logs. If the filesystem is currupted. it may refuxe to mount it. You should boot to windows and check the filesystem in that case. | 21:23 |
| Technicus | Dr_Willis; now suddenly it is mounted but super slow. | 21:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Technicus: you can try mounting it by hand also and force it to mount. | 21:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Technicus: time to look at dmesg output. | 21:23 |
| Technicus | Dr_Willis; where is the dmesg output? | 21:24 |
| usr_ | hello, this is a simple question. how can I know the IP of the devices attached to my network? | 21:24 |
| Dr_Willis | type dmesg in a terminal Technicus | 21:24 |
| Dr_Willis | usr_: i nmap scan the network and figure out whats what | 21:24 |
| === christian is now known as Guest16458 | ||
| amila | hi | 21:25 |
| anavarro | Hi there!! I have a Samsung scx-4521f and I can't get the scanner work | 21:26 |
| Technicus | Dr_Willis: What am I supposed to look for? | 21:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Technicus: any error messages metoning hard drives /dev/sdXX devices | 21:27 |
| zoopp | barberan: so far I rebooted 3 times...it worked every time | 21:28 |
| usr_ | Dr_Willis, can you give me an example on how to use nmap? I need to find out the ip of a device to do ssh | 21:29 |
| Dr_Willis | nmap has gui front ends. nmap -sP 192.168.1.* | 21:31 |
| Technicus | How can I share a wireless internet connection from one Ubuntu Desktop that has a wireless nic and a wired nic to a second Ubuntu Desktop that only has a wired nic? Does it require an ethernet cable that is rewired to be a crossover? | 21:36 |
| Dr_Willis | 1000 speed nic's can crossover automaticallt | 21:38 |
| Dr_Willis | otherwise you need a crossover cable, or a switch/hub | 21:39 |
| Somelauw | Does smartctl usually delete stuff by the way? | 21:41 |
| ac_slater | can someone PLEASE help me install an updated "light-themes" package in Lucid (10.04) | 21:42 |
| ac_slater | ie - I cant find a repo which contains the backported updates ... and I dont want to install the deps by hand | 21:42 |
| Technicus | Dr_Willis: what can I do to find out what the hardware avaliable to me supports? | 21:43 |
| notlistening | Evening all | 21:43 |
| taia | hi all | 21:45 |
| manco | hi all | 21:45 |
| manco | lol, hi taia | 21:45 |
| taia | :D | 21:45 |
| taia | hi | 21:45 |
| notlistening | :P | 21:45 |
| Dr_Willis | !info ethtool | 21:45 |
| ubottu | ethtool (source: ethtool): display or change Ethernet device settings. In component main, is optional. Version 1:2.6.37-1 (natty), package size 76 kB, installed size 296 kB | 21:45 |
| satanrm | if i upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 using the upgrade button will it download the full .iso or some patches only? | 21:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Technicus: ethtool command can tell you some specs on the nic. most likely that stuff is not 1000speeds.. unless its decently new | 21:46 |
| Dr_Willis | satanrm: it downloads packages... so neither one. :) | 21:46 |
| Dr_Willis | satanrm: it will download several 100mb of packages. perhaps even more then the iso file syze | 21:47 |
| satanrm | Dr_Willis: what will be the download size in total if i upgrade will it be more? | 21:47 |
| satanrm | lol | 21:47 |
| Dr_Willis | it all depends on what you have installed. | 21:47 |
| satanrm | i thought it will be less than the size of the iso | 21:47 |
| satanrm | ;) | 21:48 |
| Dr_Willis | You are basically upgradeing EVERY package on the system... | 21:48 |
| henry- | why doesn't keyboard work when I use it on wrong computer? | 21:48 |
| satanrm | so better is the clean install from .iso i wanted to save internet bandwidth actually | 21:48 |
| Dr_Willis | i always do clean installs when possible | 21:48 |
| notlistening | henry, you need to give more details | 21:49 |
| satanrm | thought it might upgrade in just 100MB :P instead of the full size iso | 21:49 |
| henry- | the keyboard is attached to my other computer and it's not working with this computer I'm using | 21:49 |
| henry- | while it is still attached to the other computer, why? | 21:49 |
| notlistening | henry is it a standard keyboard, usb etc? | 21:49 |
| henry- | it's usb | 21:50 |
| satanrm | what is the lightest 11.04 version for netbook? | 21:50 |
| notlistening | henry, you have the keyboard connected to the computer you want to use it with right? | 21:50 |
| satanrm | and smallest in size :P | 21:50 |
| satanrm | the desktop one or any other is there? | 21:51 |
| Rick_Hunter | fuck | 21:51 |
| henry- | no it's connected to the other computer | 21:51 |
| Dr_Willis | satanrm: lubuntu would be the lightest in resources | 21:51 |
| notlistening | satanrm, server / desktop? | 21:51 |
| satanrm | i will use on netbook | 21:51 |
| Dr_Willis | netbook dosent matter.... :) | 21:51 |
| satanrm | which runs 10.10 atm | 21:51 |
| satanrm | i dont use apache | 21:51 |
| satanrm | not running a server | 21:52 |
| Dr_Willis | and your point is? :) | 21:52 |
| satanrm | to get a build that has the least size in mb :P | 21:52 |
| notlistening | henry, if you want to use it with a different computer then you have to unplug it and connect it to the computer you want to use it with, or do you want to control the other computer from the one it is connected to? | 21:52 |
| victorius | Well, the server version is alot lighter :) | 21:52 |
| satanrm | and which starts first | 21:52 |
| satanrm | boots* | 21:53 |
| satanrm | lol | 21:53 |
| Dr_Willis | go to the download site and look.. most are all right at 700mb | 21:53 |
| henry- | I just want to type to this computer | 21:53 |
| satanrm | what is difference between server version and desktop | 21:53 |
| Dr_Willis | If you want a TINY linux disrto and dont care if its ubuntu or not. theres tiny core linux 10-40mb or Puppylinux 100mb. | 21:53 |
| victorius | Alot | 21:53 |
| satanrm | i think the desktop one can also run apache | 21:53 |
| Dr_Willis | desktop has the desktop.... | 21:53 |
| Dr_Willis | any of them can run apache.. | 21:53 |
| satanrm | ah ;p | 21:53 |
| OerHeks | hmm netbook-server | 21:54 |
| notlistening | henry, plug the keyboard into that computer then | 21:54 |
| satanrm | server doesnt have x window? | 21:54 |
| satanrm | its terminal? | 21:54 |
| satanrm | based | 21:54 |
| victorius | satanrm: Server version is without graphic interface and another scheduler | 21:54 |
| henry- | why can't I use this keyboard I already have attached to this computer? | 21:54 |
| satanrm | dang | 21:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Server is server.. not a desktop.. thus no X... | 21:54 |
| satanrm | then i wont download it ;) | 21:55 |
| victorius | But both server and desktop versions share the same apt repositories. So installing a server on a desktop version is easy. And installing a graphic interface on a server version is also easy | 21:55 |
| notlistening | henry, unplug the keyboard that does nto work and then plug it in, in a terminal type dmesg and post to pastebin and give us the link | 21:55 |
| * Dr_Willis mentions again. Lightest desktop in recources and size would be 'lubuntu' | 21:55 | |
| satanrm | ok | 21:55 |
| satanrm | lxde? | 21:56 |
| henry- | but this keyboard works just fine | 21:56 |
| satanrm | will ubuntu support it? | 21:56 |
| satanrm | i mean lubuntu | 21:56 |
| Dr_Willis | !lubuntu | 21:57 |
| ubottu | lubuntu is a project to create a derivative of Ubuntu using the LXDE desktop environment. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu . /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. | 21:57 |
| victorius | satanrm: looks like lxde | 21:57 |
| notlistening | henry, so plug two keyboards in at the same time and do what i said so you can type | 21:57 |
| Dr_Willis | it is lxde.... | 21:57 |
| notlistening | henry you are trying to diagnose the keyboard with the problem | 21:57 |
| henry- | I don't need two keyboards | 21:57 |
| victorius | satanrm: You can also just use the default ubuntu and install XFCE and use that | 21:58 |
| notlistening | henry-, sorry i am not really understanding your problem then, anyone else? | 21:58 |
| henry- | but I don't have a problem | 21:58 |
| g0th | 22hi | 21:59 |
| kk9822 | hi | 21:59 |
| g0th | hi | 21:59 |
| g0th | How do I search and play a youtube video from the command line? | 21:59 |
| kk9822 | i want to clean the unwanted stuff in my harddisk as it incicates less space | 21:59 |
| conathan | Hello, I was attempting to build an executable that will run on ubuntu [running LFS], but getting /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found. Do I need a cross compiler? or can I just link against a copy of ubuntu's libc? | 21:59 |
| kk9822 | can u pl give the terminal command pl | 21:59 |
| satanrm | also lubuntu feels more like windows :P | 22:00 |
| g0th | I would like to specify a search term, the command line script should search youtube with these search terms, fetch the first result and give me back the url | 22:00 |
| victorius | g0th: You'll need some program or script to do that. Have you tried googling it? | 22:00 |
| satanrm | from the screenshots | 22:00 |
| satanrm | lol | 22:00 |
| g0th | victorious: yes | 22:00 |
| Soothsayer | How do I mount an ext3 partition from Ubuntu under windows? I was recommended Ext2Fsd earlier, but when I assign a drive letter toe the ext3 partition, nothing happens | 22:00 |
| g0th | s/victorious/victorius/ | 22:00 |
| conathan | Soothsayer: I think there is a service you have to start... | 22:01 |
| Dr_Willis | !ext3 | 22:01 |
| ubottu | ext3 is the default filesystem on older versions of Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 22:01 |
| g0th | I feel confident that I can continue once I know the "url" of the video | 22:01 |
| Dr_Willis | that fs-driver.org stuff worked decently well last i used it | 22:02 |
| victorius | g0th: Why from command line? Also, you might be able to write your own using wget to fetch a path from youtube or google even | 22:02 |
| g0th | teh search works as follows: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=SEARCH_QUERY | 22:02 |
| conathan | Dr_Willis: ext2fsd is finaly getting some updates, in fact I think they're partially supporting ext4 now. | 22:02 |
| g0th | victorius: because I want to use it in a script | 22:02 |
| Soothsayer | conathan, i think so. i remember something about some service in the faqs. | 22:02 |
| victorius | g0th: If youtube doesn't provide an api for this, then you have to parse the returned html | 22:02 |
| Dr_Willis | conathan: thats supriseing. :) | 22:02 |
| g0th | yeah | 22:03 |
| g0th | but I was hoping someone already did that | 22:03 |
| g0th | and I think they do provide an api | 22:03 |
| conathan | Dr_Willis: I know, set it up for my brother a month ago, even seems more stable now | 22:03 |
| g0th | but I dont want to waste 10 hours on this | 22:03 |
| victorius | Ah, ok. I unfortunately do not have a clue :) | 22:03 |
| Soothsayer | Dr_Willis, fs-driver is safe for writes too? | 22:03 |
| conathan | Soothsayer: based on a month old memory, but I think things started working either after a reboot, or turning on the service | 22:03 |
| notlistening | Soothsayer, Google "Google CL" | 22:03 |
| conathan | Soothsayer: let's just say there's no guarantee's. probably never will be | 22:03 |
| g0th | Google CL just works for your own videos? | 22:04 |
| notlistening | conathan, reboot windows always fixed everything :D | 22:04 |
| g0th | does someone know how to use google cl with arbitrary stuff? not my own stuff | 22:04 |
| Dr_Willis | Soothsayer: no idea. Ive not used it in ages.. would use it as little as possible.. i find its windows that crashes and can cause issues with fs-driver. so i always unmounted my linux stuff after i was done with it. | 22:04 |
| Soothsayer | notlistening, ? | 22:04 |
| conathan | notlistening: if you say so... it's been a month since I had to find out | 22:04 |
| notlistening | Sorry That was for g0th Soothsayer # | 22:04 |
| notlistening | :D | 22:04 |
| Soothsayer | conathan, would you pick fs-driver or ext2fsd? | 22:04 |
| Soothsayer | hehe | 22:04 |
| notlistening | Following two convs | 22:04 |
| kk9822 | hello | 22:05 |
| conathan | Soothsayer: a year ago, both seemed to have issues in windows 7, since then, ext2fsd actually have updates. I usually prefer software that's being updated | 22:05 |
| conathan | Soothsayer: and it supports some features better (256 inode size). | 22:05 |
| conathan | Soothsayer: but, no clue how trustworthy it is | 22:06 |
| Soothsayer | conathan, cool.just going to try a reboot | 22:06 |
| Soothsayer | brb | 22:06 |
| * conathan only has research, never used either on my own computer... | 22:06 | |
| conathan | btw, I take it nobody can answer my gcc link to alternative libc question? | 22:07 |
| AlessonZaire | Could anyone please recommend me a C/C++ compiler similar to Dev C++? Thanks in advance | 22:08 |
| conathan | well, gcc... | 22:08 |
| conathan | use that with mingw32 (mingw.sf.net), or mingw64 (mingw-w64.sf.net) | 22:08 |
| Lockzi | How can I find out what flags PHP was compiled with? | 22:10 |
| AlessonZaire | Oh, does it have a GUI? Sorry if my question is stupid, I just recently switched to linux | 22:10 |
| Dr_Willis | You are getting compilers and 'IDE" 's confused. :) | 22:10 |
| conathan | oh, no. mingw builds 32 or 64bit windows applications. | 22:10 |
| conathan | not sure what's out there... I use vim myself. | 22:10 |
| conathan | and make | 22:11 |
| notlistening | g0th, http://yubnub.org/ | 22:11 |
| AlessonZaire | Oh I see... | 22:11 |
| g0th | notlistening: that doesnt help, it is not command line | 22:11 |
| conathan | bluefish, had some neat features, | 22:11 |
| AlessonZaire | Thank you conathan :D | 22:12 |
| conathan | it's a text editor, but reminds me a bit of a ide | 22:12 |
| notlistening | g0th, really? | 22:12 |
| conathan | in fact, if I recall, could even hand the textfile over to gcc to compile it | 22:12 |
| conathan | [30% chance I remember that right] | 22:12 |
| Dr_Willis | thats how it used to be done. :) | 22:12 |
| g0th | notlistening: yeah, just over the web | 22:12 |
| g0th | oh | 22:13 |
| AlessonZaire | Alright, I'll give bluefish a try :D | 22:13 |
| g0th | now that I check again I found some interesting links, yubnubtools or sthg like that | 22:13 |
| AlessonZaire | It seems to be more for web development but should fit just right XD | 22:14 |
| conathan | AlessonZaire: good luck with it. Seemed to have a lot of good tools for development, although I preferred vim so never dug that deeply | 22:14 |
| AlessonZaire | conathan thank you very much for the tips ^^ | 22:15 |
| conathan | your welcome | 22:15 |
| Soothsayer | conathan, a reboot did the job. Now how do I give it write access? it's read-only right now. | 22:16 |
| conathan | Soothsayer: properties, had a flag for that... | 22:16 |
| conathan | Soothsayer: just to warn you, I'm moving from half knowing, to guessing at this point | 22:16 |
| conathan | Soothsayer: but I do recall you could write to it | 22:17 |
| notlistening | g0th, googlecl still looks like your best bet | 22:17 |
| Soothsayer | conathan, you were right :) | 22:18 |
| conathan | :) I ran out of knowledge now | 22:18 |
| g0th | notlistening: can I use it for general youtube searches? | 22:20 |
| g0th | I thought it only searches "your videos" | 22:20 |

| Luig1 | Where exactly is the text configuration file for the main menu kept in Ubuntu 10.10? | 22:22 |
| i1920x1080 | Anybody use coLinux on Windows and run the latest Ubuntu? | 22:22 |
| zykotick9_ | Luig1, i don't think it is a text file, i imagine it's storied in gconf (similar to MS's registry), only why I know to edit it is through alacarte (Menu editor in the menu) | 22:24 |
| overdub | where can I change the time before the screen locks and requires a pass word? | 22:24 |
| overdub | i'm not very impressed with the crappy applications layout | 22:25 |
| overdub | it's hard to find programs | 22:25 |
| Luig1 | Alright, I'll check gconf, thanks zykes- | 22:25 |
| Luig1 | zykotick9_, I mean | 22:25 |
| overdub | instead of a list of programs to run, I get it telling me what's installed, and what useless garbage I can install if i choose | 22:26 |
| overdub | i just want a menu for the programs and options on the computer | 22:26 |
| Polah | Is it possible to stop Ubuntu One syncing ~/Ubuntu One? | 22:26 |
| g0th | notlistening: I managed to install yncs, a commandline utility for yubnub | 22:27 |
| g0th | but it always opens the browser :( | 22:27 |
| overdub | i fear it might be time to leave Ubuntu as it goes down the tubes trying to be . . . user, dumbed down | 22:27 |
| g0th | I would like it to return the link to me, not open it in a browser | 22:28 |
| overdub | g0th, yes, this is exactly the type of thing i'm on about | 22:28 |
| photon | hi. totem worked fine until now, it does not start playing movies or songs. it starts normally, doesn't hang, it just does not play or show anything. what can I do to fix this? | 22:28 |
| BarkingFish | overdub, sometimes you *have* to dumb down a little for the sake of the general public - not everybody is as advanced as you appear to be | 22:28 |
| overdub | ubuntu seems to think it's cool to control the users experience | 22:29 |
| BarkingFish | just like windows | 22:29 |
| overdub | BarkingFish, i very much dislike the trend | 22:29 |
| BarkingFish | get used to it. | 22:29 |
| BarkingFish | The more people we have coming to linux as an alternative, the more we're gonna have to make things easier for them | 22:29 |
| BarkingFish | Not everyone comes to linux being thoroughly conversant in the workings of *nix and other stuff. | 22:30 |
| overdub | or move to another distribution and enjoy the power and freedom of Linux as I have for many years | 22:30 |
| BarkingFish | Some see it as an alternative to paying £149 for an OS which is broken out of the box, like windows | 22:30 |
| collosi | overdub: what distro do you use? | 22:30 |
| overdub | BarkingFish, do you know which hoops I could jump through to adjust my screen lock time? | 22:30 |
| jrib | BarkingFish, overdub: #ubuntu-offtopic please | 22:31 |
| overdub | collosi, ubuntu, but I just recently upgraded | 22:31 |
| collosi | overdub: you should try gentoo if you really want freedom, and go one step further with LFS | 22:31 |
| overdub | collosi, yes, that would be the extreme, but I like how ubuntu handles drivers and gets everything working | 22:32 |
| overdub | but i don't like the lack of control and the "guided" experience | 22:32 |
| === rww is now known as tardis | ||
| collosi | overdub: yes, this is why I no longer use gentoo, I really don't have time for it | 22:32 |
| jrib | overdub, collosi: I'd prefer not to have to kick people. Move the distro conversation to #ubuntu-offtopic | 22:32 |
| BarkingFish | no disrespect intended, but I can't see how a conversation about the ubuntu distro is offtopic in an ubuntu channel, but I will abide by your decision jrib :) | 22:35 |
| BarkingFish | i've dropped out of the conversation anyway | 22:35 |
| jrib | BarkingFish: this channel is dedicated to support :D | 22:35 |
| overdub | I can respect that, and if anyone had a hint where I can change the suspend timing, I'd appreciate it | 22:37 |
| jrib | overdub: isn't that exposed in gnome-power-manager? | 22:37 |
| Somelauw | My external harddisk is behaving bad again. | 22:37 |
| jrib | erm, gnome-power-preferences | 22:38 |
| overdub | jrib, there's a lead, thanks, I go poke around | 22:38 |
| Somelauw | It doesn't respond to ls. | 22:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Somelauw: does dmesg show anything? | 22:38 |
| BarkingFish | Somelauw, are you the guy who's got the disk connected via a hub? | 22:38 |
| Somelauw | BarkingFish: yes | 22:40 |
| BarkingFish | hm. Got any spare ports on your hub? | 22:40 |
| BarkingFish | might be a duff usb port | 22:40 |
| Somelauw | ActionParsnip: No and syslog doesn't show any infor anymore either. | 22:41 |
| BarkingFish | or alternatively, you might need a new cable. I've had to replace mine once for a similar thing. | 22:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Somelauw: is it ok if you direct connect it? Remember to safetly remove the device before you unplug it | 22:41 |
| Somelauw | It justs stops in the middle of making a backup. | 22:42 |
| Somelauw | ActionParsnip: Without a usb cable? I don't think that is possible. | 22:43 |
| BarkingFish | somelauw - how is it connected to the hub? | 22:43 |
| Somelauw | BarkingFish: Using a cable. Ah, I get what you mean. | 22:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Somelauw: no, without a hub. Are you using a USB hub? | 22:44 |
| BarkingFish | Yep | 22:44 |
| pr0t0c0n | anyone wanna play some UT | 22:45 |
| pr0t0c0n | im bored | 22:45 |
| BarkingFish | If you have a free usb socket on your computer, unplug the cable from the hub and directly attach it to the socket on your computer, just remember to remove the usb device safely before you unplug it | 22:45 |
| ActionParsnip | pr0t0c0n: ask in #ubuntu-offtopic | 22:45 |
| BarkingFish | brb | 22:45 |
| Somelauw | ActionParsnip: The usb cable directly connects the harddisk to my computer. | 22:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Somelauw: ahh i see. Is the partition healthy? | 22:46 |
| Somelauw | ActionParsnip: What is the usual way to check if it is healthy? | 22:47 |
| ActionParsnip | Somelauw: unmount it then use fsck | 22:47 |
| mneptok | Somelauw: if you're trying to copy files >4GB, is the filesystem something that can handle that (hint: FAT32 can't) | 22:47 |
| Somelauw | It just did another reset. | 22:47 |
| BarkingFish | That sounds like a dud cable | 22:48 |
| Somelauw | [14851.130193] usb 2-6: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4 | 22:48 |
| BarkingFish | If it keeps resetting the drive, that's a dud cable | 22:48 |
| BarkingFish | That is exactly what happened to mine, and replacing the cable solved it | 22:48 |
| Somelauw | BarkingFish: Did you bring it to the shop? | 22:49 |
| BarkingFish | no, I bought a new cable for it and replaced it myself | 22:49 |
| Somelauw | BarkingFish: Is there a way to check if the cable is bad? I will check the partition as well. I am still waiting hopeful for it to finish. | 22:50 |
| BarkingFish | what type of USB connection is it to the drive? Mini USB or one of the USB B plugs? | 22:51 |
| projectzro | finally im on here -.- anyway i have a PSP Go and im trying to transfer files to it but when it is plugged in ubuntu only sees it as a media device and not removable memory. any help would be great. | 22:51 |
| BarkingFish | Look at these pics and say which is the connection to your drive, Somelauw: http://pinouts.ru/connectors/usb_a_b_male.gif | 22:51 |
| projectzro | oh im on 11.04 | 22:51 |
| Polah | If I want to link a directory in my home to a directory on another drive, should I use a symlink or a hard link? | 22:52 |
| projectzro | i have a PSP Go and im trying to transfer files to it but when it is plugged in ubuntu only sees it as a media device and not removable memory. any help would be great. | 22:54 |
| BarkingFish | Somelauw, how are you getting on? | 22:54 |
| Somelauw | I am still unmounting it. | 22:55 |
| lazarus_ | hi | 22:55 |
| Somelauw | BarkingFish: It looks like A. | 22:56 |
| Somelauw | It is rectangular. | 22:56 |
| BarkingFish | That's the bit that plugs into your hard drive? | 22:56 |
| Somelauw | Yes, it is A | 22:56 |
| Somelauw | BarkingFish: no, the one in my computer | 22:57 |
| BarkingFish | No, I need to know which one plugs into the drive please :) | 22:57 |
| mneptok | Somelauw: take the hub out of the equation before purchasing cables. plug the drive directly into the USB port of the computer. | 22:58 |
| Somelauw | mini-B | 22:58 |
| BarkingFish | mini B - ok. | 22:59 |
| BarkingFish | You can get leads like that from some mobile phone stores, a lot of cellphones have that type of plug for attaching to usb | 22:59 |
| BarkingFish | You need USB - A to Mini USB B | 23:00 |
| mneptok | Somelauw: you need to take the hub away before purchasing cables. | 23:00 |
| Somelauw | mneptok: I am not using a USB hub. | 23:01 |
| BarkingFish | Somelauw, I think you already said you'd got the drive attached directly, didn't you? | 23:01 |
| BarkingFish | If it's still not reading when directly attached, I'd almost certainly say you need to try a new cable on it. | 23:01 |
| mneptok | Somelauw: what format is the partition you're trying to use on that device? | 23:01 |
| Somelauw | It is drive - cable - computer. | 23:01 |
| oneiros_Fade | Hello. Where would I go about an apparent issue between LightDM and DockBarX? | 23:02 |
| Somelauw | mneptok: NTFS | 23:02 |
| mneptok | Somelauw: NTFS write support in Linux can be shaky. does the drive exhibit odd symptoms doing similar tasks in Windows? | 23:03 |
| Somelauw | mneptok: I haven't tested that recently. | 23:03 |
| mneptok | Somelauw: before spending money, you might want to check. what are you using to run a backup in Linux? | 23:04 |
| Somelauw | mneptok: rsync | 23:04 |
| mneptok | Somelauw: try "rsync -rtvu --modify-window=1 --progress /path /path" | 23:06 |
| mneptok | Somelauw: the --modify-window may help when using NTFS | 23:06 |
| mneptok | (and drop --progress if it's a ton of small files) | 23:06 |
| Polah | Does Dropbox conflict with Ubuntu One? I have Dropbox and Ubuntu One syncing the same directory, Dropbox syncs properly but Ubuntu One claims it's synced but doesn't actually do anything with the files | 23:07 |
| vaihiarii | Hello from French Polynesia, I just installed Lubuntu 10.04 on qn older NEC tower for my daughter qnd I am not finding the HP printer | 23:08 |
| tokam | if you change the vpn settings, and allow a system wide usage of an existing connection, in this step the password gets lost | 23:09 |
| tokam | please fix this! | 23:09 |
| Somelauw | mneptok: Okay. I will try. | 23:09 |
| Somelauw | Thanks everyone for helping me by the way. | 23:09 |
| Polah | tokam: File a launchpad bug report, we can't fix anything, we're just volunteers that help. | 23:09 |
| vaihiarii | Where should I look for drivers for a HP psc1350 all in one printer scanner | 23:11 |
| somsip | vaihiarii: hplink? | 23:13 |
| LostyJai | hey guys | 23:13 |
| somsip | Somelauw: hpplip - sorry | 23:13 |
| LostyJai | is the 9600GT compatible with 11.04 ? | 23:13 |
| somsip | vaihiarii: sorry - hplip | 23:13 |
| Somelauw | mneptok: The harddisk doesn't work anymore | 23:14 |
| vaihiarii | somsip is that a link or website? | 23:14 |
| somsip | vaihiarii: a package | 23:14 |
| Somelauw | Even more stuff in syslog: http://pastebin.com/D9Hba3mb | 23:16 |
| Somelauw | I think I will give up | 23:16 |
| vaihiarii | somsip So I can do q sudo apt-get install hplip | 23:16 |
| vaihiarii | sorry qbout the q i q, used to q ,urican kybd | 23:17 |
| Somelauw | Thanks for helping me anyway | 23:17 |
| somsip | vaihiarii: yes - the driver may not be in there so it's worth checking on hplip website, but if you've not checked the package yet for the driver, it's probably the first easiest step | 23:17 |
| vaihiarii | brb going there now | 23:17 |
| mneptok | Somelauw: that's FAT, not NTFS. | 23:19 |
| mneptok | Somelauw: you'll encounter file size issues (no files >4GB), open descriptor issues, and timestamp issues when using rsync with FAT32 | 23:20 |
| mneptok | Somelauw: but you have bad blocks all over that disk. it's certainly time to think about reformatting, and if that does not help, replace the media. | 23:21 |
| Somelauw | mneptok: my bad | 23:22 |
| mneptok | Somelauw: an fsck.fat32 is in order. or use diagnostic tools in Windows. | 23:23 |
| mneptok | sorry, fsck.vfat | 23:23 |

| Arv3n | Hello all. I am having a wireless problem on my Inspiron 1750 laptop on Ubuntu 10.04. It keeps disconnecting me after a while and I have to plug in my ethernet cord. This happens with B43 and STA drivers. | 23:36 |

| CT1 | Hi. Where can I place/register a script that will run when I "sudo shutdown -P now" and will be guaranteed to complete (or fail) before the system goes down? | 23:38 |
| ikonia | CT1: look at how upstart manages scripts and dependencies | 23:39 |
| projectzro | sorry last time i asked a question i was ignored, i figured i would test to see if people could actually see what im typing | 23:39 |
| projectzro | I have a PSP Go and im trying to mount it to see the internal memory but no go no mater what i do | 23:40 |
| ikonia | projectzro: what file system is on it ? | 23:40 |
| projectzro | 6.39 OFW and CFW on Ubuntu 11.04 | 23:40 |
| ikonia | projectzro does linux support those file systems ? | 23:41 |
| projectzro | i honestly am not sure what you mean by file system | 23:41 |
| mneptok | projectzro: you're referring to homebrew OS mods with OFW and CFW, yes? | 23:41 |
| projectzro | yes | 23:41 |
| vaihiarii | Installed hplips and still not seeing the printer | 23:42 |
| ikonia | projectzro the device has to have a file system on it to store the files, what is that file system | 23:42 |
| projectzro | i have tried oficial sony firmware and the custom firmware | 23:42 |
| mneptok | projectzro: this is why i stick with stock Sony firmwares. my PSP works flawlessly with Linux, and has for the past 4 years. | 23:42 |
| projectzro | oh sorry it should be fat16 | 23:42 |
| projectzro | it was formatted by the psp itself | 23:42 |
| ikonia | projectzro: does the device have a /dev file system identifier ? | 23:42 |
| ikonia | mneptok: ahh, you've done this before....you're in then | 23:43 |
| mneptok | ikonia: i have never done it with hacked firmware that violates my EULA and TOS ;) | 23:43 |
| ikonia | mneptok: but you know the process though, I'm assuming it's just seen as device in /dev | 23:43 |
| mneptok | ikonia: yes, and is auto-mounted in /media | 23:44 |
| newbie_ | Hey guys, I have a big big problem with grub2 :( it can't found my Windows 7 :( :'( | 23:44 |

| projectzro | it's not giving me one. it shows up in my computer as "SONY "PSP" MS" im assuming the "MS" part is for memory stick but i dont have one in im using the 16GB internat memory | 23:44 |

| Lockzi | Hi, what is the best way to update to PHP 5.3.8 on Ubuntu 10.04, download yourself and compile? | 23:45 |
| mneptok | Lockzi: nothing in the backports repo? | 23:45 |
| newbie_ | bobweaver: I run it, but it can't find any windows :( | 23:45 |
| ikonia | Lockzi: I'd not sugget doing that at all | 23:45 |
| bobweaver | newbie_: oh | 23:46 |
| mneptok | projectzro: first thing i'd tell you is to install the stock Sony firmware | 23:46 |
| bobweaver | hmm | 23:46 |
| Arv3n | Hello all. I am having a wireless problem on my Inspiron 1750 laptop on Ubuntu 10.04. It keeps disconnecting me after a while and I have to plug in my ethernet cord. This happens with B43 and STA drivers. | 23:46 |
| Lockzi | mneptok: http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid-backports/php/ I can't find it | 23:46 |
| projectzro | already did. technically it was never on custom it was just patched. when it is turned of the custom firmware is gone | 23:46 |
| Lockzi | ikonia: Care to elaborate on what you would do? :) | 23:46 |
| ikonia | Lockzi: I guess the first question is why do you need that version ? | 23:47 |
| newbie_ | bobweaver: http://paste.ubuntu.com/682198/ | 23:47 |
| mneptok | projectzro: something is mounting when you plug it in. there is only one piece of media in the device. so why do you think it's broken? | 23:48 |
| Lockzi | ikonia: In order to get PCRE module above version 8, which is required by The Bug Genie (php equivalent of Trac) | 23:48 |
| bobweaver | newbie_: what about gparted does that see it | 23:48 |
| ikonia | Lockzi: what version is in 10.04 ? | 23:48 |
| mneptok | projectzro: go look at the contents of what gets mounted. you may find it's the internal memory you're looking for. | 23:48 |
| Lockzi | ikonia: PCRE Library Version 7.8 2008-09-05 | 23:49 |
| projectzro | it is i just cant get to it. it only shows that i can and i cant do anything with it | 23:49 |

| Stanley00 | fremen_: or use system monitor, | 23:50 |
| ikonia | Lockzi: I'd log an update request and see if you can get a backport | 23:50 |
| Lockzi | ikonia: What's the normal time for back ports to be done? You can't really ask for much considering Open Source… :) | 23:51 |
| bobweaver | newbie_: I am not a grub guy but I am sure that there is some one here that can hep | 23:51 |

| Lockzi | ikonia: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php5 says that the maintainers are "Ubuntu Developers" | 23:55 |
| bobweaver | ohh you are gone | 23:56 |
| projectzro | it doesnt show. when i go into its preferences it is listed as Computer:/// | 23:56 |
| mneptok | projectzro: you said the media appeared on your desktop. now you say it does not. | 23:56 |
| ikonia | Lockzi so there should be a group you can contact called "ubuntu developers" | 23:56 |
| Stanley00 | fremen_: got it! try run sudo lspci -v ;) | 23:57 |
| projectzro | no i said it appeared in "my computer" sorry for the confusion | 23:57 |
| Lockzi | ikonia: But it says "Ubuntu Developers does not use Launchpad. " when I click on the maintainer… Out of luck? Feel really stupid at this point haha | 23:57 |
| notlistening | nessonic, is there any free space (unpartitioned) on the drive in question? | 23:58 |
| === evilttech is now known as ttech | ||
| ikonia | Lockzi: not at all, it can be confusing | 23:58 |
| ikonia | Lockzi: log a bug against the package and it should get a response quickly, and you can discuss then | 23:58 |
| notlistening | Lockzi, all the people listed on php are the maintainers in one form or another | 23:59 |
| fremen_ | Stanley00: oh of course :) but the information is too much here, is there a command to get more spesific info about graphics cards and its current state ? | 23:59 |
| Lockzi | notlistening: Do you agree with ikonia's advice to report this as a bug or should I try harder to find them? | 23:59 |
