[04:24] <Guest76848> I recently purchased a gamepad to play old games on my ubuntu linux 10.04 LTS machine. i have a logitech F310 and i downloaded three emulators, mupen64plus, zsnes, and GFCE Ultra NES Emulator. I can't seem to get it to work. i installed joystick, and other forums suggest installing jscalibrator but in the terminal is says it can't be found.
[04:25] <Guest76848> does anyone know where i can find a solution to this? i've checked many forums and they've all been duds.
[04:25] <holstein> Guest76848: you dont see it in the terminal when you run lsusb?
[04:25] <Guest76848> it is listed...does this mean it recognizes it and it should be working properly?
[04:26] <Guest76848> my gamepad and my mouse is listed. so it does pick up the connection from the usb port.
[04:27] <holstein> Guest76848: whats the line?
[04:27] <holstein> from lsusb
[04:27] <Guest76848> it says:
[04:28] <Guest76848> bus 002 device 004:
[04:28] <Guest76848> id 046d: c216
[04:28] <Guest76848> logitech, inc. dual action gamepad
[04:28] <Guest76848> thats it
[04:29] <holstein> Guest76848: i have something close to that
[04:29] <holstein> havent used it in years, but i just plugged it in, and it worked, and that was 10.04
[04:29] <Guest76848> which is the version i have.
[04:29] <holstein> i remember having to go in and set it up in all the emulators
[04:30] <holstein> it was a bit of a pain
[04:30] <holstein> worth it though, assuming you need a contoller
[04:30] <Guest76848> yeah, i cant work with pressing a,s,d,f and arrow keys. terrible
[04:30] <Guest76848> well, it seems like im on the right track then.
[04:31] <Guest76848> i just have to work more with the emulators then, i guess the gamepad is ok. i thought it wasnt working.
[04:31] <holstein> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=464570
[04:31] <Guest76848> do u recommend any emulators?
[04:31] <holstein> nah, im not a gamer really... i play teewords a bit :)
[04:32] <Guest76848> the link says i have to log in...
[04:33] <holstein> well, it just says what we are saying... someone says 'its not working', someone else says 'works for me'
[04:33] <holstein> Guest76848: i would try getting it working with a native game
[04:34] <Guest76848> native game?
[04:34] <holstein> Guest76848: a linux game, on linux, with linux running on metal
[04:34] <holstein> right now, you have a lot of variables
[04:35] <Guest76848> ok, where can i get a linux game?
[04:35] <holstein> where ever you install apps
[04:35] <holstein> software center, or synaptic, or apt
[04:35] <Guest76848> ok.
[04:35] <Guest76848> let me try that.
[04:37] <iloveubuntu29> i have a problem with sound-juicer and i am wondering if you could help me?
[04:37] <holstein> iloveubuntu29: ?
[04:39] <iloveubuntu29> i have 3 DVD-or+RW drives and when ever i try to load them with CDs to rip it always switches drives on me when i insert them while ripping one of them
[04:40] <holstein> iloveubuntu29: sorry, ive never had the opportunity to rip with that many drives in action at a time
[04:40] <iloveubuntu29> oh, should i try ubuntu forums?
[04:40] <holstein> and i dont consume or create many things in disc form these days
[04:40] <holstein> iloveubuntu29: im not sure
[04:41] <holstein> it might not be an issue
[04:41] <holstein> its trying to use the one that is ripping?
[04:41] <holstein> you are opening seperate instances of sound-juicer?
[04:42] <iloveubuntu29> it is switching from the one that is ripping to the one that is not and automaticaly shuts down
[04:42] <holstein> iloveubuntu29: im not sure im following
[04:42] <iloveubuntu29> no only one instance i cannot open multiples in unity
[04:43] <iloveubuntu29> when i had 10.04 lts i could open multiple instances in metacity or compiz
[04:44] <iloveubuntu29> two drives are not ripping only one is.
[04:44] <holstein> so, you have 3 drives... you put a CD in, and you say rip it, and it rips track one, and switches to drive 2 for track2?
[04:44] <holstein> and fails?
[04:45] <iloveubuntu29> it switches from the ripping disk to one that has just been inserted and then shuts down
[04:45] <holstein> iloveubuntu29: ?
[04:45] <holstein> why are you inserting discs?
[04:45] <Guest76848> thanks holstein, working good on my 64 emulator. thanks.
[04:45] <Guest76848> goodnight
[04:45] <holstein> maybe you should *not* do that while its ripping
[04:45] <iloveubuntu29> to rip them i have a large cd collection
[04:46] <holstein> sure, but you cant rip them 2 or 3 at a time that way
[04:46] <iloveubuntu29> no not with unity only with metacity or compiz
[04:46] <holstein> well, log out and log into classic and try it
[05:21] <jciloveubuntu29> has anyone dealt with sound-juicer
[07:58] <LemonAid> Hello !  Q: On my Win7 running PC i left an opened port with, and i connect to with Netcat from my Ubuntu running laptop
[07:58] <LemonAid> That lands me in a CMD shell(as i set it up), but inside that shell i can not start Netcat.
[07:59] <LemonAid> The thing is, that when i do a dir *.exe in the directory i have nc.exe, i can not even find nc.exe, however it is there.
[10:14] <Cavalier> Got a question about raedon HD issues
[10:19] <Nick136> hey all....this channel alive?
[10:20] <jp_Hranice> be in hope :-)
[10:21] <Nick136> Ok so...I'm running 11.04, and I want to upgrade to 11.10 beta 2, I've got the iso., and I've tried update manager, but dusnt want to work, I've also tried to install via live boot usb, but cant get anything to boot via bootloader since I installed 11.04(don't get me wrong not blaming 11.04, it's prob just my own stupidity)
[10:50] <jp_Hranice> My english is not so perfect ... can you boot from USB flash disk ?
[10:50] <jp_Hranice> Too late :-(
[13:27] <holstein> jp_Hranice: sure
[14:00] <pip__> After a recent hardware upgrade - i52500k, z68 mobo & some 1333mhz corsair xms3 ram I can no longer enable desktop effects in 10.10.  I've an HD4870 1Gb GPU & neitther the open source (which I prefer) or fglrx drivers work.  Does anyone hve any ideas as to what the issue may be?
[14:03] <holstein> pip__: you changed the graphics hardware?
[14:04] <pip__> no, the HD4870's been in for a year or 2
[14:04] <holstein> you changed the motherboard?
[14:04] <pip__> oh yes
[14:04] <pip__> board, CPU & RAM
[14:04] <pip__> all changed
[14:04] <holstein> in that scenario, i would try a live CD and see if the desktop effects can be enabled
[14:04] <holstein> i would also try an older kernel
[14:05] <holstein> whatever the next kernel in the list is
[14:05] <pip__> ok.  I'm not on the rig in question at the moment, but I'd not thought of that
[14:06] <pip__> thanks for the input, I'll give it a go when I get home
[14:06] <pip__> :)
[14:07] <holstein> sure... let us know how it goes
[14:09] <pip__> given that 11.10 is so close I was toying with the idea of just giving that release a whirl
[14:09] <holstein> pip__: no reason not too at this poing
[14:10] <holstein> i would still do some testing live though
[14:10] <holstein> i suppose it could be something with the motherboard swap
[14:10] <pip__> I also had some weird internet problems, very slow
[14:10] <pip__> I think you may hav it with the board
[14:10] <holstein> im proposing that you upgraded packages at the same time, and thats what 'broke' the graphics driver
[14:11] <holstein> either way, trying some live CD's with different kernel versions will help you troubleshoot
[14:12] <pip__> excellent, thats my Sunday evening sorted
[14:12] <pip__> :-D
[14:13] <pip__> thanks holstein, I'll drop back in in the next day or so & give a sit rep
[14:13] <holstein> pip__: good luck :)
[14:14] <pip__> tnx
[14:14] <pip__> ttfn
[15:32] <coalwater> anybody with some webmin/virtual min experience?
[15:36] <sebikul> coalwater, i know a bit about webmin
[15:38] <coalwater> well i created a virtual host but still the domain name doesn't resolve for some reason
[15:41] <sebikul> delete the virtual server, i will walk you through the process. i think i know whats wrong, i had the same problem
[15:41] <coalwater> ok 1 second
[15:43] <coalwater> hmm, i think i can't delete it because it's the last one remaining
[15:44] <coalwater> wait, i found it lol
[15:44] <coalwater> sebikul: ok it's gone
[15:44] <sebikul> hehe. when creating the virtual server, leave the "Handle connections to address" as "Any address", put the domain name as "Server Name" and choose the document root
[15:45] <sebikul> then hit the "Create now" button and access the virtual host settings
[15:46] <coalwater> hmmi cant find that in the creation page
[15:46] <coalwater> do i click create server first?
[15:46] <sebikul> these options are shown when creating a virtual host from webmin
[15:47] <coalwater> hm, do i need to create one there befoer using virtual min ?
[15:47] <sebikul> better to use webmin for this
[15:48] <coalwater> ok what do i need to create tthe virtual server
[15:48] <coalwater> i cant find what to click
[15:49] <sebikul> Servers -> Apache Webserver -> create virtualhost
[15:50] <coalwater> there's a virtual server on /var/www
[15:50] <coalwater> do i keep that
[15:50] <sebikul> yeah, keep it. create a folder somewhere else as document root for the new virtual host
[15:50] <coalwater> okay
[15:52] <sebikul> remember to do what i said earlier. leave the "Handle connections to address" as "Any address", put the domain name as "Server Name"
[15:53] <coalwater> do i need to end it with a dot or any thing
[15:54] <sebikul> no
[15:54] <coalwater> hm
[15:54] <coalwater> it still doesn't work sadly
[15:55] <sebikul> now open the settings for that virtual host and go to "Networking and Addresses"
[15:55] <coalwater> ok im there
[15:56] <sebikul> at the right, where it says "Alternate virtual server names" put your domain name as "*.DOMAIN+TLD". ie: "*.example.com"
[15:56] <coalwater> ok
[15:56] <coalwater> save?
[15:56] <sebikul> then hit "Apply Changes" at the top right
[15:56] <sebikul> saving first
[15:57] <sebikul> it should work now
[16:03] <coalwater> apparently i have some messed up stuff lol
[16:03] <coalwater> when i tried to restart apache i got some warnings
[16:12] <coalwater> sebikul: any good way to debug or something
[17:10] <holstein> what is gksudo for KDE?
[17:10] <bioterror> was it kdsu/kdsudo
[17:11] <bioterror> or kdesu
[17:11] <holstein> bioterror: thanks :)
[17:11] <bioterror> !sudo
[17:11] <ubot2> sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo
[17:11] <bioterror> !kdesudo
[17:11] <ubot2> In KDE use « kdesudo <program> » (or « kdesu <program> » for Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! | See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to find out why
[17:12] <holstein> kdesudo should do it then
[18:42] <LemonAid> Hello. Got a little problem Netcat related.. sort of (i think). I`ve detailed it here since it`s sort of a long explaination. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11323019
[18:55] <hiscir> I have recently purchased a printer, a canon LBP2900B, and successfully installed the drivers from the canon site. The printer shows up in the printers list, and even adds jobs in queues, however all the jobs go in the pending state, and the printer doesn't process anything. Here is some info : http://pastebin.com/FHye1sMX
[18:56] <holstein> hiscir: no driver in the repos?
[18:57] <hiscir> holstein: I have installed the drivers from the canon site, they recently provided them.
[18:57] <holstein> hiscir: right
[18:57] <holstein> were there none from ubuntu?
[18:58] <hiscir> holstein: no not from ubuntu repo
[18:58] <holstein> hiscir: if you remove the printer, and go to the printer config, what driver is suggested by the wizard?
[18:58] <holstein> i think thats going to be about all you can do
[18:58] <holstein> try a different driver
[18:59] <hiscir> holstein: will try it
[19:07] <hiscir> http://pastebin.com/yr5kwt12
[19:08] <holstein> hiscir: youve checked out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters/CanonPrinters/Canon_LBP_2900 ?
[19:10] <hiscir> holstein: yup, but those issues were solved, since canon came up with an update with the driver. The ones mentioned on the site uses an old driver version 1.3, the one available is 2.9
[19:10] <holstein> hiscir: seems like maybe they werent
[19:10] <holstein> did you try this driver?
[19:11] <hiscir> no, haven;t tried this one. /me thinks will give this a try
[19:12] <holstein> maybe http://www.unixmen.com/linux-distributions/ubuntu/229-installation-canon-lbp2900-on-linux is more relevant
[20:37] <BanguBangu> Test
[20:37] <bioterror> was your test succesful?
[20:37] <BanguBangu> hey anyone there
[20:37] <BanguBangu> cool
[20:37] <BanguBangu> it's successfuyl
[20:38] <BanguBangu> i had a feeling I was in a room alone... :(
[20:38] <BanguBangu> but I see on the side that there are other people here...
[20:39] <bioterror> yes, and this is a support channel
[20:39] <bioterror> we mostly talk if there's a reason, for chit chat there's -team -channel
[20:40] <BanguBangu> I understand. I'm new to this! I just installed Ubuntu approximately 30 minutes ago, and I am having trouble getting a wireless connection
[20:40] <BanguBangu> I've looked at a few threads, and googled around. I don't think I've found much that can help me.
[20:41] <BanguBangu> Well, maybe if I looked more, but I figured asking in chat wouldnt hurt
[20:41] <bioterror> what's your problem?
[20:41] <BanguBangu> I'm not able to make any sort of connection at all. Whenever I click on the Network Manager on the top right corner, I am not given any options to connect to any network
[20:42] <bioterror> hmmm
[20:42] <BanguBangu> I've checked to see if my network adpator is recognized
[20:42] <BanguBangu> Opened terminal and entered "iwconfig"
[20:43] <BanguBangu> and information comes up about my adaptor
[20:43] <bioterror> have you run that "hardware drivers"?
[20:44] <BanguBangu> I don't understand what you mean. Also, I'm on win7 right now.
[20:44] <BanguBangu> Since i'm dual booting and can't make an internet connection, I switched back over
[20:44] <BanguBangu> to look for solutions.
[20:45] <bioterror> https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/ubuntu-help/net-wireless-troubleshooting-device-drivers.html
[20:45] <bioterror> BanguBangu, you should use your ubuntu with wired connection
[20:45] <bioterror> instead of wireless
[20:46] <BanguBangu> I definitely would do that, but I'm not anywhere near my router
[20:46] <bioterror> hard to help if you're in windows
[20:46] <BanguBangu> and I think what I will do is move to my router and load up ubuntu through there
[20:46] <BanguBangu> so you can help me while I'm on ubuntu
[20:47] <bioterror> propably or someone else
[20:47] <BanguBangu> cool
[20:56] <BanguBangu> hey bio
[20:59] <BanguBangu> Hey can someone help me connect to the internet wirelessly?
[21:03] <bioterror> hi
[21:04] <bioterror> sudo lshw -C network
[21:04] <bioterror> what does it prompt to you?
[21:04] <bioterror> if you open terminal and put that command
[21:07] <BanguBangu> letś see
[21:07] <BanguBangu> *-network                       description: Ethernet interface        product: NetLink BCM57780 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe        vendor: Broadcom Corporation        physical id: 0        bus info: pci@0000:03:00.0        logical name: eth0        version: 01        serial: 00:26:2d:a2:04:36        size: 10Mbit/s        capacity: 1Gbit/s        width: 64 bits        clock: 33MHz        capabilities: pm msi pciexpress bus_ma
[21:07] <BanguBangu> well thatś sloppy
[21:08] <bioterror> that's not a wireless
[21:08] <BanguBangu> i know
[21:09] <BanguBangu> it cut off my wireless
[21:09] <BanguBangu> hold on
[21:09] <BanguBangu> I have a driver version
[21:09] <BanguBangu> Iḿ looking at at it, and there is a data telling me the driver version

[21:10] <bioterror> disabled
[21:10] <BanguBangu> Yeah, my next question was to ask
[21:11] <BanguBangu> how to enable my wireless adpator, because my keyboard commands won't do it
[21:11] <BanguBangu> in win7, most can just press Fn+wireless toggler
[21:11] <BanguBangu> itś not working on ubuntu though
[21:13] <BanguBangu> Don't worry about me right now
[21:13] <BanguBangu> I am reading some stuff I googled. I think I may be able to figure it out on my own
[21:15] <bioterror> BanguBangu, what if you say "sudo ifconfig wlan0 up"
[21:15] <BanguBangu> Cool
[21:15] <BanguBangu> it turned on my adaptor
[21:15] <BanguBangu> So I guess Iḿ going to have to do that everytime I boot my ubuntu?
[21:16] <bioterror> you should not have to do it
[21:16] <bioterror> but does it now find wlan access points?
[21:17] <BanguBangu> it does not
[21:17] <BanguBangu> Are yout alking about when I click on the network manager?
[21:17] <bioterror> yeah
[21:17] <BanguBangu> the wireless networks option is grayed
[21:17] <BanguBangu> It says that "wireless is disabled"
[21:18] <bioterror> still :G
[21:19] <BanguBangu> :(
[21:23] <BanguBangu> why in the world
[21:24] <BanguBangu> :(
[21:24] <bioterror> I only see really old problems with that chipset
[21:24] <bioterror> what's your laptop's vendor and model
[21:24] <BanguBangu> Atheros Communications Inc.
[21:25] <BanguBangu> AR928X Wirless Network Adapter (PCI-Express)
[21:27] <bioterror> hey
[21:27] <BanguBangu> ?
[21:27] <bioterror> have you upgraded your system?
[21:28] <BanguBangu> I just did
[21:28] <BanguBangu> Are you talking about my Ubuntu system?
[21:28] <bioterror> yes
[21:28] <BanguBangu> Yes
[21:28] <BanguBangu> I did. I just installed them.
[21:28] <BanguBangu> Oh it sayts I need to restart
[21:28] <bioterror> ;)
[21:28] <BanguBangu> lemme see what happens after I restart
[21:29] <bioterror> let's give it a shot
[21:35] <BanguBangu> That seemed to do the trick bio
[21:35] <bioterror> ;)
[21:35] <BanguBangu> I wish that was one of the first things that would have been said
[21:35] <BanguBangu> oh well
[21:35] <BanguBangu> Thanks though!
