Like, keep the installation bar at the same spot for over 20 minutes? [02:19] BrandonBolton: Maybe, if you choose update while install or some thing like that [02:20] Stanley00: Sorry, right after I posted that the screen changed. [02:21] BrandonBolton: ;) [02:33] upgraded to 11.10 - flash won't work in FF7..how to fix? [02:33] zHammeRz: add the sevenmachines PPA to your sources. [02:38] how? [02:40] add to /etc/apt/sources.list the following two lines. [02:40] deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/sevenmachines/flash/ubuntu oneiric main [02:40] deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/sevenmachines/flash/ubuntu oneiric main [02:41] run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install flash64-nonfree [02:41] I am assuming you installed 64bit [02:41] don't forget the key [02:41] yeah the key also [02:41] see: https://launchpad.net/~sevenmachines/+archive/flash [02:42] naw, 32bit [02:42] zHammeRz, did you install the restricted-extras for your desktop? [02:43] what is the desktop? [02:43] it was an upgrade from 11.04, everything else works fine except flash player in FF7 [02:43] 11.10 with Unity [02:45] zHammeRz, in the terminal sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricte-extras you need to check the /etc/apt/sources list first for any repos commented out due to the upgrade, and make sure any ppa's if there have oneiric [02:45] restricted* [02:45] /etc/apt/sources.list* [02:46] Yea I have added those 2 sources already [02:46] zHammeRz, the sevenmachines are for 64 bit. [02:47] Yea I see that [02:47] How hard is it to go back to FF 6? I only wanted to upgrade the operating system, not load every application up with some beta version [02:47] kind of ticked me off [02:48] zHammeRz, flash works in FF7 I have that FF in naty and oneiric [02:49] It worked fine for me in 11.04. Just since the upgrade FF7 says missing plug ins, so I click the button and it says nothing found. I try removing and adding it in the software center and it says the same thing [02:49] FF7 seemed to work just like FF6, minus flash :) [02:50] zHammeRz, I have given you the answer bit you just ignore it, it is a waste of time helping you. [02:50] but* [02:50] your answer doesn't apply since I am not running 64bit [02:51] zHammeRz, mine had nothing to do with 64 bit. [02:54] zHammeRz, none of this is 64 bit but both. in the terminal sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricte-extras you need to check the /etc/apt/sources.list first for any repos commented out due to the upgrade, and make sure any ppa's if there have oneiric [02:54] When opening Synaptic I keep getting the following error: E: The value 'natty' is invalid for APT::Default-Release as such a release is not available in the sources E: _cache->open() failed, please report. [02:54] sorry ubuntu-restricted-extras [02:55] basotl, do you have the update manager or software source open [02:56] urlin2u: No. [02:56] any refernce to dpkg -a [02:56] I had tyo actually install synaptic I believe. [02:57] After upgrading I did have to dpkg -a but I already ran that. [02:58] basotl, try this wont hurt anything and may fix it. sudo apt-get -f install [02:59] basotl, actually if you have Oneiric it looks like you have Natty in the apt/sources.list take a look [02:59] I did and it's not listed anywhere. I purged my PPA's just in case I was going blind. [03:00] basotl, can you run a update in the terminal? [03:01] basotl, did you look in /etc/apt/sources.list.d for any extra ppa's === Guest41584 is now known as LjL-Temp [03:01] urlin2u: Yes. I have removed and installed programs from terminal. === LjL-Temp is now known as Guest17442 [03:02] did you look in /etc/apt/sources.list.d for any extra ppa's [03:04] urlin2u: None listing Natty. Removing all to see if that does anything. [03:05] basotl, removing all? [03:05] PPA I had added a couple back [03:07] basotl, here is a bug about this I believe. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/842179 [03:07] Launchpad bug 842179 in synaptic (Ubuntu) "Short after upgrade, Synaptic failed to open but apt-get still works" [Undecided,Confirmed] [03:07] Yeah... that bug looks like it. Subscribing. [03:10] I guess as long as it isn't just me. It seems the bug also causes the software center to crash. I wanted to check the new changes for it. [03:10] Well, none of that worked...all it did was install some true type fonts. So as a work around I installed chromium and enabled the html5 opt in for youtube [03:10] basotl, I see a reference to the proposed repos which are not open in development, you may have them open hard to say really> [03:21] urlin2u: I took proposed out of my sources list and still same issue. I'll just wait on it. [03:21] basotl, strange bug I haven't seen it [03:23] urlin2u: Yeah that bug report is the only mention I have found online. I looked through the forums but nothing like it. I normally run across others with similar bugs there. [03:25] basotl, if it was me if I couldn't get it to work I would do a fresh install, your wait may be along time if ever. [03:26] urlin2u: It's beta software. I've had many bugs fixed when I have tested through alpha's, ect. I can still use the terminal to install stuff so no huge issue yet. [03:26] basotl, brave user you are, I'm not that patient. :D [03:31] urlin2u: It's all part of the fun when testing the beta's.

I think the package name is a little different [04:49] right, I tried going into the stupid store and nothing it wont let me do it, I hate the fact that they removed synaptic damn it [04:49] I could easily have done it from there already [04:50] that was like my best friend :( [04:50] so install Synaptic [04:51] I thought you could not do it in this version [04:51] It's not installed by default.

[16:22] penguin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/686434/ [16:22] penguin42: http://paste.ubuntu.com/686434/ [16:23] is there another way to set up compiz? I really miss its functionality? :( [16:23] not yet, but other users using this repository not have this issue. but i'll try [16:24] balo: My guess is that something in one of the other repositories/ppa's you have is stopping it [16:24] balo: If you do apt-get install libglib2.0-0=2.29.90-0ubuntu1 what happens? [16:25] I seem to have huge problems with my Amarok on Oneiric [16:25] penguin42: I have sent an error report to Launchpad. [16:25] It takes literally forever to start and bizarrely only starts after I do "killall amarok" getting something unstuck, I guess [16:26] bullgard4: Good - I always think it's best to report bugs [16:26] bullgard4: What bug number? [16:27] penguin42: i change the mirror from Hungary to 'main' and it's solved the problem (i feel myself like a noob :D) [16:27] balo: I'm not sure what the right way to report problems with mirrors is [16:27] thanks anyway, but i don't understand what "sticked" w/ Hu. repository [16:29] im having problems with cpu [16:30] coolers go up high all time [16:30] lucas-arg: what process use the CPU? [16:31] balo, theres nothing using it... i dont seen anythin high in htop, its just the cooler... [16:31] balo, in 11.04 it was ok [16:32] balo, just yesterday i switched to 11.10 to test it ou [16:32] t [16:35] lucas-arg: are you see some strange value in `sensors`' output? [16:35] balo, nop [16:35] all temps are in 54 C [16:37] is it doing this at boot or when you log in? [16:39] oneiric is working great for me here, just unable to set up compiz is a pita [16:42] necreo, enable desktop effects is the next best [16:42] where do I do that [16:43] penguin42, do you recall what the path to desktop effects is in gnome ? [16:44] necreo, I'm no kde so the menus are differnt [16:44] using regular ubuntu with unity [16:44] on kde [16:44] no [16:44] gnome [16:44] ubuntu, not kubuntu [16:45] yeah, necreo that's why I asked penguin42 [16:46] I don't recall what the menu path for desktop effects is , but feel free to look around ..probly under admin [16:48] my cooler is high all time, and i cant configure my sound cards properly yet [16:50] only way i can configure my sound card poperly is using terminal and alsamixer... [16:50] lucas-arg, that's the best method [16:51] BluesKaj, will give some headaches to people who havent been that much time using linux... [16:53] necreo: what desktop are you using? [16:53] lucas-arg, well, if you're not familiar with linux enough to set up alsamixer, then running a Beta OS is beyond their scope, IMO [16:53] jbicha: ubuntu-desktop [16:53] necreo: no, are you using Unity, Unity 2D, or what? [16:54] Unity [16:54] Ubuntu Gnome 3D Unity [16:54] and what are you trying to do to Compiz? Unity already runs Compiz [16:54] I want to set up the plugins [16:54] like scale [16:54] are you using GNOME Shell or Unity? [16:54] Unity [16:54] how many times man :D [16:55] necreo: hey, you're the one that keeps saying Gnome... anyway, aren't you using ccsm? [16:56] Yes Im using ccsm, but it doesnt do anything [16:56] I can turn on plugins, set them up [16:56] but nothing happens [16:56] well, messing with ccsm isn't really supported and I don't use it, sorry :-( [16:58] but how do you set up compiz then? [16:58] scale is like superusefull [16:58] necreo: you shouldn't have to, it works out of the box [16:59] default alttab got no previews, no scale, no zoom, no expo [17:00] necreo: did you try Win+W ? [17:00] hi, i'm trying to get flash player installed on kubuntu. my system is 64-bit. i have flashplugin-installer installed but don't know what to do now [17:00] ah that will do for now, thanks jbicha [17:00] I usually bind that to my top right corner of the screen [17:01] necreo: bottom right might be a better idea... [17:01] I use that one for show desktop [17:01] usually, not yet, think Ill have to wait until ccsm is fixed or smth [17:06] ok s1gsegv , now that we know your OS status this can probly fix the flash problem https://launchpad.net/~sevenmachines/+archive/flash [17:07] penguin42: bug #846524 [17:07] Launchpad bug 846524 in gnome-shell (Ubuntu) "GNOME 3 sometimes does not show some rectangular portions of an active window.

[21:02] ndiswrapper did indeed work on 11.04 and it does not work in the terminal... atleast the apt-get [21:02] how would you recommend installing from terminal [21:03] "does not work" is awfully vague, sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper [21:04] sorry...I have no internet.

[21:12] but, i predict they'll be gone before release day. might happen on next updates even. so i'll just give it time [21:12] i deem it too insignicant of a bug to bother [21:12] at least for now === Guest22534 is now known as LjL-Temp === LjL-Temp is now known as Guest88439 [21:15] on the bright side, i got my wish granted. dash home button [unity-2d] is looking as presentable as the 3d counterpart [21:15] So I tried to upgrade to 11.10 today but it kept freezing during the upgrade.

How come I can never adjust my screen brightness on my netbook? When I hit fn up or down on the D-Pad a bar fills up and decreases but nothing happens. [23:27] BrandonBolton: Probably a bug [23:28] penguin42: That even happened on 11.04 before I decided to install 11.10. Do you know anyway to actually get it to work? [23:29] BrandonBolton: No, but it's not something I've ever fought with; it's possibly something hardware specific [23:31] penguin42: Okay, thank you for your help. I will try and figure it out. It is more annoying than a struggle. [23:31] BrandonBolton: Try: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging/Backlight [23:32] penguin42: Thank you, I shall look into it. [23:37] is anyone suffering from the mouse cursor disappearing at odd times? [23:41] penguin42: Yes, mine does every so often but I just move my finger around the mouse pad and it comes back. [23:41] 11.10 volume control in panel app not working. Is this a know bug? [23:41] BrandonBolton: In ay particular apps or generally? [23:43] penguin42: Just like in general. I only use this computer for Bluefish, Google Chrome, Firefox, Document Viewer, and sometimes Inkscape if that helps any. [23:44] thanks [23:44] jeffrash: I had lots of things not work until I ran updates. I had to do it from command line to get all of the updates though. It didn't work for me until after I did that. [23:47] BrandonBolton, I'm completely updated on two systems and it still doesn't work. However, the FN key volume control works fine on the laptop and the keyboard volume control works on the desktop. [23:48] BrandonBolton, the desktop is an upgrade from 11.04 and the laptop is a fresh install. [23:51] jeffrash: It just tried to test it out once again and it locked up my desktop. I had hit control alt F1 and ALT F7 to free it. [23:51] BrandonBolton, I've got the same issue [23:52] BrandonBolton, I'm sure that will get fixed [23:53] jeffrash: Yes, it was a reported bug already, I just checked. [23:56] how do I open a file with an application I specify? [23:56] have you tried the new ubuntu [23:56] is it looking good [23:56] there are only other apps listed, the one I want isnt in there [23:56] buggy [23:56] ok [23:57] BrandonBolton, what the link to the bug?
