[00:00] <go8765> escott, 11.04
[00:00] <escott> go8765, and yes it should be in the control center somewhere
[00:00] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: any errors on "sudo swapon -a"?
[00:00] <bobosomfan> escott: I'll try that, thanks!
[00:00] <BlueProtoman> iceroot: cannot find the device for UUID=(numbers, letters, etc.)
[00:01] <escott> go8765, you might try the accessibility channel. im just guessing at where these things are
[00:01] <escott> BlueProtoman, use blkid to find the correct uuid
[00:01] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: then you are not using the correct UUID
[00:01] <mrdeb> if u want to set the clock to utc, do u have to change it in bios
[00:01] <BlueProtoman> iceroot: I have the UUID, I just can
[00:01] <mrdeb> ?
[00:01] <BlueProtoman> I just can't be bothered to copy/paste it given how awkward it is on the terminal.
[00:01] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: can you paste the fstab entry and the output of the blkid command?
[00:01] <BlueProtoman> Hm, OK.
[00:02] <go8765> escott, I have many problems with gnome-control-center: I use openbox under ubuntu and It conflict with gnome-settings. can I turn off this options in other way?
[00:02] <francisvgarcia> I was just wondering if there was something like zenapp for ubuntu, free of course
[00:02] <BlueProtoman> iceroot: http://pastebin.com/RTPKXwcR
[00:03] <iceroot> francisvgarcia: not "xenapp"?
[00:03] <go8765> *on
[00:03] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: you are using the wrong uuid
[00:04] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: or do you see the uuid in the blkid command?
[00:04] <BlueProtoman> iceroot: I do, yes.
[00:04] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: what?
[00:04] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: your swap uuid is /dev/sda7: UUID="2cc6614a-3265-432f-8738-23c6d4e1bb1d" TYPE="swap"   but you are using  UUID=8b0a7214-a8d7-4587-984a-b0bddbf4eb5f none            swap    sw              0       0
[00:05] <BlueProtoman> I see the UUID in /etc/fstab as well as blkid.  They don't match up for /sda6, though.
[00:05] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: swap is sda7
[00:05] <BlueProtoman> Hm, odd.
[00:05] <BlueProtoman> Ah, OK, misread it.
[00:05] <BlueProtoman> Yes, it is SDA7.  I thought it was PENDRIVE, the one below.
[00:05] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: /dev/sda7: UUID="2cc6614a-3265-432f-8738-23c6d4e1bb1d" TYPE="swap"   but that uuid into fstab
[00:05] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: put
[00:06] <BlueProtoman> Add it, or replace sda6?
[00:07] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: replace UUID=8b0a7214-a8d7-4587-984a-b0bddbf4eb5f none            swap    sw              0       0  with the uuid 2cc6614a-3265-432f-8738-23c6d4e1bb1d
[00:07] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: because that is the new uuid of your swap partition
[00:07] <BlueProtoman> OK, then.
[00:08] <BlueProtoman> It's read-only.
[00:08] <BlueProtoman> Guess I'll have to sudo it in.
[00:08] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: what?
[00:08] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: ah ok, yes
[00:08] <sp4z> hi all, if i upgrade to 11.10 will i loose all my documents etc?
[00:08] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: you need sudo to edit /etc/fstab
[00:08] <iceroot> sp4z: no
[00:08] <iceroot> sp4z: but having a backup is always a good idea
[00:08] <BlueProtoman> I'll just save it to desktop and sudo copy it.
[00:08] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[00:08] <sp4z> iceroot, thnx
[00:10] <BlueProtoman> iceroot: I sudo copied it.  Will I have to reboot to get the swap partition?
[00:10] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: "sudo swapon -a"
[00:10] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: no reboot needed
[00:10] <BlueProtoman> Ah, it works!  Thank you very much!
[00:10] <iceroot> BlueProtoman: no problem
[00:11] <TrevorBradley> Hey folks, I've tried diving into the D6 i18n module this afternoon and am getting bogged down.  What I'd like to do (amongst other things) is take specific CCK fields and have have them translated into French.  I see the i18ncck submodule, but can't find any documentation anywhere.  Does anyone have some pointers on where to start on my i18n quest?
[00:11] <lexflex> hello ubuntu crew!
[00:11] <TrevorBradley> (Toying with the i18ncck module without dir produces no result whatsoever)
[00:11] <TrevorBradley> dammit, wrong channel, sorry folks.
[00:13] <lexflex> i have a question. i downloaded this file to install parallels: parallels-desktop-4.0.6630.449744.run     what do i do with it? double click opens it in an editor (but it crashes). its 140mb, its not a text file.
[00:14] <iceroot> lexflex: isnt parallels some strange apple-stuff for mac osx?
[00:14] <lexflex> iceroot: it's actually not strange but pretty good. however, i downloaded the explicit Parallels Desktop for Linux
[00:14] <iceroot> lexflex: everything related to apple is strange (but that is another topic)
[00:15] <iceroot> lexflex: chmod +x filename.run then you can use ./filename.run
[00:15] <lexflex> iceroot: hey i just finally installed ubuntu on my macbook pro to get away from mac os x ;)
[00:15] <iceroot> lexflex: great, buying expensiv apple-hardware to run another system :)
[00:16] <lexflex> iceroot: i bought this macbook a year ago with good hopes.
[00:16] <dr_willis> you run it.
[00:16] <dr_willis> chmod +x foo.run
[00:16] <dr_willis> ./foo.run
[00:16] <iceroot> lexflex: but related to your real question, make it executable with chmod +x file. after that you can run the file with ./filename
[00:17] <iceroot> dr_willis: way to slow :)
[00:17] <lexflex> iceroot: can i make it executable in permissions window of the file?
[00:17] <bobosomfan> Does anybody know how to format usb that only has read-only mode?
[00:17] <iceroot> lexflex: yes
[00:17] <hhhzzzarn> in unity 11.10, how do i view open applications?
[00:17] <lexflex> iceroot: excuse me i am not hardcore ;)
[00:17] <hhhzzzarn> Anyone? in unity 11.10 how do I view open applications or windows
[00:17] <iceroot> lexflex: you dont need to be hardcore to run ubuntu :)
[00:18] <lexflex> iceroot: but then, how do i run it? is there any way to assign it correctly so it runs with double click? or do i have to use terminal?
[00:18] <hhhzzzarn> lexflex: what are you trying to do again?
[00:18] <iceroot> lexflex: double-click should ask "view the file or execute it"
[00:18] <lexflex> iceroot: that's actually why i am giving it a shot. i think it could be simple enough for me
[00:18] <dr_willis> learn/use the cli.. its faster
[00:19] <lexflex> iceroot: hey this works!
[00:19] <hhhzzzarn> lexflex: what are you trying to run? just asking
[00:19] <lexflex> hhhzzzarn: i had a .run-file that opened in editor. it is parallels-desktop-4.0.6630.449744.run
[00:20] <hhhzzzarn> i see. right-click, make it executable, double click, and then run.
[00:20] <lexflex> hhhzzzarn: yea this worked out well. that's the dummie way i was looking for
[00:20] <hhhzzzarn> anyone? how do i view all open windows in unity? what is the shortcut or what do i click?
[00:20] <hhhzzzarn> lexflex, that is not dummy way, it is the gui way.
[00:21] <iceroot> dr_willis: related to your comment :) i found this funny thing http://i1096.photobucket.com/albums/g328/jimbrittain/weuselinuxbecause.jpg
[00:21] <iceroot> lexflex: the shell (bash) on ubuntu is acting the same way as on mac osx (just for the recorf if you used the shell on mac osc)
[00:22] <hhhzzzarn> iceroot: that is gnu/linux.
[00:22] <iceroot> hhhzzzarn: ?
[00:22] <lexflex> iceroot: yes i did, i'm not unfamiliar with ti
[00:22] <lexflex> it*
[00:22] <sergiubsd> guys how do i set the default sound card on xubuntu ? i tied asoundconf-gt-gtk but i doesent work.
[00:22] <dr_willis> gui for a .run may or may not work... it depends on how the .run works... safest to use the cli
[00:22] <hhhzzzarn> that image mentions only linux, it is correct to say: gnu/linux.
[00:22] <iceroot> hhhzzzarn: #debian   they like that kind of discussion
[00:23] <iceroot> :)
[00:23] <dr_willis> iceroot: not discussion...;] some other term...
[00:24] <hhhzzzarn> no one can help me? this should be easy for unity users, how do i view all my open windows in unity 11.10? I use gnome-shell, but currently on unity 2d for some reason.
[00:24] <iceroot> hhhzzzarn: alt + tab?
[00:24] <hhhzzzarn> i do not want to alttab
[00:25] <dr_willis> how do you wamt yo view them?
[00:25] <hhhzzzarn> alt tab is for switching. there should be something that shows all open windows. gnome-shell view all open windows when you click on launcher home button.
[00:25] <64MAA2DVH> I did a zerofill and a reformated a entire 1TB disk, but now, in ext2 partitions, I can't create a directory with dolphin ... msg is Access denied to /media/722834cd-2063-499e-9446-893d41cd60c8/New Folder. ... before this full reformat it works normally....
[00:25] <tjiggi_fo> hhhzzzarn, left windows key and A
[00:25] <lexflex> does anyone know a good software to run virtual machines on (windows server to be exact) on ubuntu?
[00:25] <lexflex> i used parallels on mac and vmware on windows
[00:26] <hhhzzzarn> left widows key plus A gives me no result.
[00:26] <dr_willis> 64MAA2DVH: you did set the owner and permissions on the fs?
[00:26] <tjiggi_fo> too bad
[00:26] <iceroot> lexflex: vbox
[00:26] <hhhzzzarn> lexflex: virtualbox?
[00:27] <iceroot> !vbox | lexflex
[00:27] <iceroot> lexflex: sudo apt-het install virtualbox-ose
[00:27] <iceroot> lexflex: sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose
[00:27] <iceroot> hm, is it still called ose?
[00:27] <iceroot> !info virtualbox-ose
[00:27] <AndyS> hey guys good evening I'm been having a problem with ubuntu for a while, just been too busy to fix it but I can't boot up into ubuntu anymore. I get an "error" I guess that says "cannot enable port 1. maybe the usb cable is bad?" and "unable to enumerate USB device on port 1." Thing is, I dont have ANYTHING plugged in via USB, even my keyboard and mouse are oldschool like that. So how do I go about to finally get back on ubuntu??
[00:27] <hhhzzzarn> iceroot: wrong spelling. just tell him to go to the sofware center and type: virtual box
[00:28] <iceroot> hhhzzzarn: tell him yourself
[00:28] <bandit5432> virtualbox only has 1 version now
[00:28] <lexflex> ubottu: iceroot: what about x64?
[00:28] <bandit5432> to get the extension go to virtualbox.org
[00:28] <iceroot> lexflex: sudo apt-get will automactly install the correct version for your architecutre
[00:28] <64MAA2DVH> dr_willis: I just pluged HD and try to open via kde places
[00:28] <iceroot> lexflex: vbox can also run x64 systems as guests (if cpu is supporting it)
[00:28] <hhhzzzarn> andys, ask dr willis
[00:29] <lexflex> iceroot: just because ubottu three said x86 that confused me
[00:29] <AndyS> hhhzzzarn, what's the policy on PMing here? I dont want to be inpolite
[00:29] <bandit5432> you can also run 64bit guests from 32bit hosts if the processor will allow it
[00:29] <hhhzzzarn> lexflex, ubut is automatic. :)
[00:29] <iceroot> lexflex: in that case she means x86/x64
[00:29] <bandit5432> 32bit host installs'
[00:30] <hhhzzzarn> i don't think some people want pm since they want others to also contribute. and learn at the same time.
[00:30] <iceroot> hhhzzzarn: correct
[00:30] <AndyS> hhhzzzarn, would that also be DRW_?
[00:31] <lexflex> iceroot: ubottu is a girl?
[00:31] <iceroot> lexflex: female bot, yes
[00:31] <hhhzzzarn> lexflex: lol
[00:31] <bandit5432> ubottu, is a devil girl
[00:31] <bandit5432> see what i mean
[00:31] <iceroot> !gender
[00:31] <hhhzzzarn> andys, dr_willis, it is better if you go to forum since you get more hardware related solutions.
[00:32] <lexflex> hey is virtual box actually free?
[00:32] <hhhzzzarn> lexflex: it has free version.
[00:32] <iceroot> lexflex: free as in free beer
[00:32] <Guest1693> No one said the Chinese:-!
[00:32] <dr_willis> i tend to use   askubuntu.com these days
[00:32] <iceroot> lexflex: imo the current version from oracle is not free (as in free speech)
[00:33] <iceroot> !free
[00:33] <hhhzzzarn> does ubuntu recognize askubuntu alternative to forum?
[00:33] <AndyS> so I take it nobody else knows how to fix this issue? :o
[00:34] <hhhzzzarn> Andys, well some of those problems are rare.
[00:34] <hhhzzzarn> and you don't have specialists here :)
[00:34] <dr_willis> chronos:  if you are acessing ext2/3/4 as a user you should set the ownership and permisdions as needed
[00:34] <lexflex> iceroot: hhhzzzarn: hey it's in ubuntu software center. i don't even need that terminal apt-magic
[00:34] <iceroot> lexflex: correct
[00:34] <lexflex> this is pretty cool i must say
[00:34] <chronos> dr_willis: when create the partition of format partition?
[00:34] <hhhzzzarn> lexflex: i told you it was there. you must ahve missed it.
[00:35] <iceroot> lexflex: but its easier to descripe "sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose" instead of "click here and here and here, type that, click here"
[00:35] <bandit5432> and a lot of people prefer the apt-get method
[00:35] <dr_willis> !permissions | chronos
[00:36] <hhhzzzarn> !unity | hhhzzzarn
[00:36] <lexflex> iceroot: yes but the latter does not frigthen me that much
[00:36] <chronos> thx dr_willis, I know well permissions, but never have seen that with disks
[00:36] <seion> when installing ubuntu server is there a way to have it install grub and linux with "nospash"
[00:36] <chronos> I'll check tune2fs properties.
[00:37] <Space-Duck> Is there a text editor (in linux) with syntax highlighting that allows you to upload files via FTP? similar to Coda or Dreamweaver?
[00:37] <hhhzzzarn> seion, always, but i wouldn't know. you might want to search it online.
[00:37] <iceroot> seion: /etc/default/grub
[00:37] <iceroot> seion: there you can edit it after the installation
[00:37] <hhhzzzarn> space-Duck, what language you using?
[00:38] <iceroot> seion: vim, emacs
[00:38] <iceroot> seion: wrong nick
[00:38] <iceroot> Space-Duck: vim and emacs
[00:38] <Space-Duck> mostly PHP, but HTML, CSS, Perl, Python, TCL
[00:38] <seion> iceroot, well I can't see anything because stupid ass grub2 is messed boots and says unable to display mode or something
[00:38] <hhhzzzarn> space-duck: there is option for gedit to change theme, and also other plugins.
[00:38] <Space-Duck> I mostly need the upload to FTP thing
[00:38] <hhhzzzarn> i was using it for java.
[00:39] <iceroot> seion: when booting press shift to enter grub, then choose what you want to boot and press "e" for edit
[00:39] <iceroot> seion: again wrong nick..
[00:39] <iceroot> Space-Duck:  when booting press shift to enter grub, then choose what you want to boot and press "e" for edit
[00:39] <Space-Duck> For example when I finish coding in dreamweaver, I can hit ctrl+u and it uploads
[00:39] <hhhzzzarn> ice-root: space-duck is the wrong person?
[00:40] <iceroot> hhhzzzarn: to late for me... thx
[00:40] <seion> iceroot, i hold down shift and says loading grub then goes right into that cannot display mode
[00:40] <Space-Duck> I would love to use gedit to do this.... but I don't see how it can be done
[00:40] <iceroot> seion: hm
[00:41] <hhhzzzarn> space-duck:
[00:41] <hhhzzzarn> http://www.micahcarrick.com/gedit-html-editor.htmlhttp://www.micahcarrick.com/gedit-html-editor.html
[00:41] <seion> iceroot, i was able to ssh into at first but now its getting stuck somewhere
[00:41] <iceroot> seion: boot the system and connect with ssh?
[00:41] <seion> iceroot, and now I cant tell because i have no display
[00:41] <iceroot> seion: :(
[00:41] <iceroot> seion: i dont know a better way then using a live-cd and editing that grub-line
[00:41] <go8765> Help me restore dragging and selection by mouse please
[00:42] <lexflex> one last thing i don't understand: how is anyone making money (i.e. paying their bills) from this ubuntu?
[00:42] <iceroot> go8765: touchpad? or a real mouse?
[00:42] <seion> iceroot, yea tried that and cant get the hd's to mount properly.... i guess i have to reinstall the whole thing ...
[00:42] <go8765> iceroot, real mouse
[00:42] <hhhzzzarn> space-duck: did you visit the link i provided?
[00:42] <go8765> iceroot, never use touchpad
[00:42] <iceroot> go8765: sorry just know a bug on touchpads for this
[00:42] <iceroot> seion: any errors while mounting?
[00:43] <Space-Duck> hhhzzzarn,  Yes, thank you that is exactly what I was looking for... the only problem is:
[00:43] <seion> iceroot, yea stuff about bad superblock
[00:43] <Space-Duck> GnomeVFS, the framework on which this works, has some bugs and possibly security issues when working on non-secure FTP connections.
[00:43] <iceroot> lexflex: support, third party services (music store) but most of us are doing it for free
[00:43] <iceroot> lexflex: we dont get money here for helping or when we are coding/patching
[00:44] <hhhzzzarn> space-duck: i can't be more help to you then that, search online for more solutions atm.
[00:44] <iceroot> seion: bad superblock is really bad
[00:44] <seion> iceroot, lol yea
[00:44] <iceroot> seion: its not a hardware-issue but its bad
[00:44] <go8765> any ideas how to  restore my mouse usage ?
[00:45] <lexflex> iceroot: so you basically work for freE?
[00:45] <iceroot> lexflex: yes
[00:45] <hhhzzzarn> go87: what did you to change it?
[00:45] <lexflex> iceroot: how do you pay your bills?
[00:45] <iceroot> lexflex: with my real job
[00:46] <hhhzzzarn> lexflex: he meant, he works here to help others free.
[00:46] <iceroot> lexflex: this is just fun for me to give something back to the community which is giving me a product
[00:46] <iceroot> lexflex: before i worked for a linux-distributor. we made money with services to customers but the softare was always free (as in free beer and free speech)
[00:47] <hhhzzzarn> helping is so addicting :) once i was into teamviewer support for another forum and i was it to show off my desktop. :)
[00:47] <lexflex> iceroot: i see. i was wondering if there is money to be made with open source software, because you have to pay programmers somehow i guess
[00:47] <go8765> hhhzzzarn, nothing/or dont remeber :) in openbox all work good, but in gnome session - I cant use mouse to 100%
[00:47] <hhhzzzarn> using*
[00:47] <excelsior> how do I reset wireless in ubuntu
[00:48] <hhhzzzarn> lexflex: what irc client are you using? empathy is not so good, everything is the same color.
[00:48] <iceroot> lexflex: e.g. many linux-developers are from other companies (ibm, intel and so on) there companies are interested to make linux better(e.g. for there products) so they pay them to work on linux
[00:48] <excelsior> how do I reset wireless in ubuntu
[00:48] <excelsior> ?
[00:48] <hhhzzzarn> excelsior: reset?
[00:49] <excelsior> restart it, when it glitches, without rebooting my computer
[00:49] <lexflex> hhhzzzarn: XChat
[00:49] <hhhzzzarn> excelsior: enable wireless, disable wireless does not help?
[00:49] <excelsior> gui never works right
[00:49] <hhhzzzarn> true.
[00:50] <lexflex> hhhzzzarn: i have not made any changes in preferences. just connected
[00:50] <iceroot> lexflex: there was a good article on debian.org about your question why everything is free and how it works. cant find it at the moment
[00:50] <hhhzzzarn> i forgot the command. where you could turn off and turn on the wireless hardware.
[00:50] <excelsior> I wish everything in the gui had a note regarding how to figure out how to manipulate the function with the command line.
[00:50] <hhhzzzarn> lexflex: what ubuntu version are you using?
[00:50] <excelsior> just a suggested man page would be nice
[00:51] <go8765> any ideas about mouse dragging that dont work ?
[00:51] <lexflex> iceroot: like google pushing wine so they don't have to port chrome or something like that i heard?
[00:51] <lexflex> hhhzzzarn: latest i think: 11.10
[00:51] <hhhzzzarn> excelsior: you can't find that command on man page.
[00:51] <hhhzzzarn> but
[00:51] <iceroot> lexflex: e.g. blizzard is working on wine so they dont have to build wow and so on native
[00:52] <lexflex> iceroot: can you actually play games with this wine?
[00:52] <hhhzzzarn> excelsior: did you try searching online? like http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-wireless-networking-41/how-to-reset-ubuntu-network-without-reboot-656979/
[00:52] <iceroot> lexflex: there are many many reasons why working "for free" on gnu/linux but the most are "we believe in free software and want to give something back"
[00:52] <iceroot> lexflex: yes
[00:52] <iceroot> !wine | lexflex
[00:53] <iceroot> lexflex: so you dont have to run windows in virtualbox or other things, it will run windows-applications directly (but not all see appdb)
[00:53] <iceroot> !appdb | lexflex
[00:53] <hhhzzzarn> !playonlinux | lexflex
[00:54] <BarkingFish> Guys. do we have any updated info on Samba for Oneiric at the moment? The link in ubottu points to Samba for 10.04
[00:54] <iceroot> BarkingFish: what you need exactly?
[00:54] <hhhzzzarn> lexflex:
[00:54] <hhhzzzarn> http://www.playonlinux.com/en/news.html
[00:55] <iceroot> lexflex: you will see, ubuntu is more then an operating system. its a community
[00:55] <BarkingFish> iceroot: I have a user in #kubuntu who needs help with using Samba - i used ubottu's trigger for the setup on the ubuntu wiki, but the one that ubottu points to is for 10.04 - he's using 11.10
[00:55] <BarkingFish> !samba
[00:55] <iceroot> BarkingFish: as a fix workaround #samba
[00:55] <BarkingFish> ok, no probs, thanks
[00:56] <iceroot> BarkingFish: but normally samba did not make big changes from 10.10 to 11.10. still samba3
[00:56] <lexflex> iceroot: hhhzzzarn: has anyone ever tried to play like top-games with wine? is that not a performance problem?
[00:56] <iceroot> lexflex: it is
[00:56] <lexflex> iceroot: damn
[00:56] <BarkingFish> iceroot: so the data in the wiki is likely to be the same?
[00:56] <iceroot> lexflex: for that see appdb
[00:56] <iceroot> BarkingFish: yes
[00:57] <BarkingFish> ok
[00:57] <iceroot> BarkingFish: without looking at it, i would say yes, no big changes
[00:57] <lexflex> i have a totally weird problem with my disk analyzre
[00:57] <iceroot> BarkingFish: when samba4 is coming there are big changes
[00:57] <leo2007> why my time is always 30 minutes behind the real time. I have set up to sync time from internet.
[00:58] <hhhzzzarn> lexflex: i don't play top mmorpg games so i wouldn't know but people find one way or another.
[00:58] <BarkingFish> thanks for your help iceroot - much appreciated :)
[00:58] <iceroot> BarkingFish: you are welcome
[00:58] <lexflex> how is it possible that my disk usage analyzer sais used: 160gb available: 86gb (this all is including windows and mac partitions which i not understand) but then scans a usage of 100%?
[00:58] <excelsior> how do I reset wireless in ubuntu?

[00:59] <iceroot> excelsior: what do you mean with "reset"
[00:59] <TheDigitalNinja> awesome! thanks

[01:01] <excelsior> I only tried iwconfig, should ifconfig beat it?
[01:02] <bandit5432> excelsior, yes
[01:02] <lexflex> iceroot: but i gave it 15gb on ubuntu setup? how is this possible?
[01:02] <Loptr> After changing grub GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT option to Profile the bootchart doesnt work, if i go back it works. but i cant see if it loads faster that way :D any toughts why it doesnt work?
[01:02] <iceroot> lexflex: you gave it 6GB

[01:02] <hylian> how do you control the timing of the unity side bar? it pops up to easily and blocks my view, it's too sensitive...
[01:02] <lexflex> iceroot: maybe i am drunk but i could swear i set it to 15.00gb
[01:02] <dr_willis> hylian:  ccsm toom has settings for it
[01:03] <dijonyummy> anyone on 11.10 running vbox? the windowing is kind of troublesome with vbox guest. it was alright in 10.10
[01:03] <dr_willis> !ccsm
[01:03] <Steak> thanks.  Also, can I install programs on ubuntu Live?
[01:03] <iceroot> lexflex: drunk :)
[01:03] <excelsior> sudo service network-manager restart  Seems to be the working version?
[01:03] <Steak> I know it sounds strange, but just wanted to see if I could run VLC
[01:03] <iceroot> Steak: yes
[01:03] <dr_willis> Steak:  live cd, installs them to ram.
[01:03] <iceroot> Steak: but of course its lost after a reboot
[01:03] <bandit5432> dijonyummy,  just resize the window min then max
[01:03] <lexflex> iceroot: but there are those other partitions. udev, tmpfs, none and none. they are not mac (OSX) nor windows (BOOTCAMP). alltogether they are about 15gb.
[01:04] <hylian> dr_willis, thanks, i'll take a look at that.
[01:04] <iceroot> lexflex: hm, 4GB /dev?
[01:04] <iceroot> lexflex: you made that by hand?
[01:04] <Loptr> can i put networking to be background process on start up?
[01:04] <Steak> iceroot: I figured that, but unless I get a power outage or something I usually reboot once per month.  And I just had some hardware crash on me, so until I can pick out & wait for parts to get here, I'd consider it worth it
[01:04] <lexflex> iceroot: no, i let ubuntu install assistant do that
[01:04] <dijonyummy> bandit5432: do you use seamless, or full, or scale. also seems a bit harder to switch from guest os to ubuntu host app quickly. any more tips?
[01:04] <dr_willis> Loptr:  clarify that question a bit more
[01:05] <bandit5432> dijonyummy, i think i use seamless
[01:05] <iceroot> lexflex: hm i dont know why /dev and /run/shm take that much space, sorry
[01:05] <excelsior> It's the Dr.!
[01:05] <hhhzzzarn> ?
[01:05] <lexflex> iceroot: should i delete  them? :)
[01:05] <dr_willis>  /run and /dev are special ;)
[01:05] <bandit5432> dijonyummy, i dont use unity or gnome-shell so that makes a diffreence
[01:05] <iceroot> lexflex: no
[01:05] <hylian> dr_willis, google has nothing on "ccsm toom", even when I add ubuntu as one of the keywords.
[01:05] <dr_willis> shm is system memory. i think
[01:06] <bandit5432> dijonyummy, let me boot a vm what guest are you having issues with?
[01:06] <Loptr> dr_willis, Is there a way to modify the Networking “start case” into a separate method so it can be run as a background process on the start up. I heard the os boot little faster that way
[01:06] <iceroot> dr_willis: some kind of to big i think
[01:06] <dr_willis> hylian:  you overlooked the bot's !ccsm it said...
[01:06] <dr_willis> !ccsm : Loptr
[01:06] <bandit5432> dijonyummy, also did you install the extensions for the guest?
[01:06] <iceroot> Loptr: upstart is already doing that
[01:06] <dr_willis> Loptr:  and its the ccsm tool
[01:07] <hhhzzzarn> dr_willis to loptr: funny toom to tool
[01:07] <dr_willis> !ccsm
[01:07] <lexflex> iceroot: i downloaded gparted. it shows a linux-swap partition of 8 gb.
[01:07] <hylian> dr_willis, i see, thank you
[01:07] <lexflex> iceroot: which is my ram
[01:07] <hhhzzzarn> lexfles: are you dual booting mac and ubuntu?
[01:07] <lexflex> iceroot: which is the same size as my ram
[01:07]  * dr_willis is on his android phone so has odd typos at times. 
[01:07] <iceroot> lexflex: can you past the outout of "mount" "sudo fdisk -l" and "cat /etc/fstab"?
[01:08] <lexflex> hhhzzzarn: yes, mac, windows and ubunut
[01:08] <bandit5432> i need more ram :|
[01:08] <dr_willis> always need moar ramz.
[01:08] <bandit5432> i only have 4gigs
[01:08] <scorinitron> whois scorinitron
[01:09] <dr_willis> youis scorinitron
[01:09] <bandit5432> ./whois not scorinitron
[01:09] <hylian> is there a way to tell whether you are running unity or unity 2d? I like the 2d because my graphics hardware is horable. i logged out and chose unity 2d, but i think it's still loading regular unity...
[01:09] <lexflex> iceroot: http://paste.ubuntu.com/731564/
[01:09] <dijonyummy> bandit: yeah installed extensions too
[01:10] <hhhzzzarn> hyalian: I am on a netbook too.
[01:10] <bandit5432> dijonyummy, what guest you running that is not resizing properly?
[01:10] <dijonyummy> bandit: windows7, not major, i remember it was easy to just to ctrl-tab to switch from guest app window to host app window
[01:10] <iceroot> lexflex: also please "sudo blkid"
[01:10] <hylian> scorinitron, right click someone's name, and choose whois.
[01:11] <truth> hey
[01:11] <dijonyummy> and now the win start menu at bottom right is not visible
[01:11] <bandit5432> dijonyummy, that might be a change that you can make in the keyboard manager usually alt+tab just switches in the host
[01:11] <lexflex> iceroot: http://paste.ubuntu.com/731567/
[01:11] <bandit5432> let me boot into 7 and see
[01:12] <dijonyummy> and when press windows key, it displays unity launcher instead. :(

[01:14] <dr_willis> partial partition? you mean resized existing partions?  Guest71888
[01:14] <Guest71888> umm the one that came with my Hp i think pro
[01:14] <Shortstraw8> I was wondering how to add my oracle vm virtualbox to a user group, I am trying to add a usb port and it is telling me to do so.
[01:14] <iceroot> lexflex: i dont get where the system is finding your "swap" fdisk does not know sda6
[01:14] <Guest71888> no it wiped my whole hdd
[01:14] <dr_willis> Guest71888:  you may want to change to a better nick also.
[01:14] <Guest71888> how?
[01:14] <hylian> is there a way i can tell whether it is unity or unity 2d that is running? there is no "about unity" box that I can see.
[01:14] <iceroot> lexflex: but these 8GB from swap are missing in your /
[01:14] <bandit5432> Guest71888, let me look real quick for an official link to windows isos
[01:14] <dr_willis> !nick
[01:15] <lexflex> iceroot: gparted sees it
[01:15] <iceroot> lexflex: are you using encrypted partitions?
[01:15] <xangua> hylian: it is 2d¿ ...
[01:15] <lexflex> iceroot: not to my knowledge
[01:15] <dr_willis> bandit5432:  lifehacker had some links to win recovery isos . for repairs
[01:15] <bandit5432> Guest71888, use one of the isos from this site http://techpp.com/2009/11/11/download-windows-7-iso-official-direct-download-links/
[01:15] <jack_^> bandit5432: i cant seem to get that to work at all.
[01:16] <iceroot> lexflex: hm sorry i dont know what to do
[01:16] <hhhzzzarn> guest71888: do you want to recover your data?
[01:16] <bandit5432> they are official windows 7 isos you will still need to have a valid key
[01:16] <jack_^> bandit5432: i can install the util, but it doesn't find the firmware upgrade
[01:16] <Guest71888> how could i even get my key back?
[01:16] <lexflex> iceroot: nevermind. i have to go to bed anyway. its 2 am
[01:16] <jack_^> Shortstraw8: i had to reboot to get vbox to recognize that i was added.
[01:16] <iceroot> lexflex: samke here
[01:16] <iceroot> lexflex: same here
[01:16] <hhhzzzarn> lexflex: use gparted for visuals. you can only have 4 primary.
[01:16] <lexflex> iceroot: can't i just disable swap or something?
[01:16] <hylian> xangua, both options exist in 11.10. unity does not equal unity 2d, so your answer doesn't help.
[01:16] <Robdog1556> Shortstraw go to users then choose your user then go to where it says your group then change it to vbox
[01:17] <bandit5432> jack_^,  this one didnt work firmware-addon-dell ?
[01:17] <Robdog1556> User
[01:17] <jack_^> bandit5432: no. either that or i'm doing ti wrong, but i followed a guide. reading up on it looks like my model is not available through that utility.
[01:17] <bandit5432> Guest71888, your key shoudl be stuck somewhere on your computer look under it if its a laptop
[01:17] <Shortstraw8> jack_^ I tried that cause that is what my brother told me to do and now I cant get ahold of him.
[01:17] <xangua> hylian: well i was hoping you ansered if it's 2d or 3d.....
[01:17] <bandit5432> jack_^,  then dl and burn the bios iso disk
[01:17] <jack_^> Shortstraw8: did you reboot?
[01:18] <xangua> that is the main diference of unity and unity-2d after all....
[01:18] <jack_^> bandit5432: i dont believe that exists. the dell site only provides with an exe file.
[01:18] <jack_^> provides me with*
[01:18] <xangua> answered*
[01:18] <bandit5432> jack_^,  you ever use hirens or ubcd?
[01:18] <bandit5432> jack_^,  whats the model number?
[01:18] <jack_^> bandit5432: i _have_ and thats what im in the process of trying.
[01:18] <jack_^> one sec
[01:18] <lexflex> god this is so endlessly confusing all this partition shabang with two different partition tables and everything messed up all the time
[01:18] <Shortstraw8> jack_^ You just mean restart my computer Right?
[01:18] <hylian> xangua, they are 2 different pieces of software. I am not asking if it's 2d or 3d. Unity 2d is a remake of regular Unity with less graphics intense effects.
[01:19] <jack_^> Shortstraw8: yes
[01:19] <baaaac> how i can registe my nickname'
[01:19] <xangua> hylian: and it is also....... 2d
[01:19] <xangua> as in 2d is not 3d
[01:19] <Revo_Truth63> im confused what should i do?
[01:19] <iceroot> !register | baaaac
[01:19] <hylian> xangua, and I know that, and that does not answer my question, but thank you for trying.
[01:19] <lexflex> i just deleted the swap partition . was that a good idea? :)
[01:19] <Shortstraw8> jack_^ Yeah I tried that. Should I leave the vm running?
[01:20] <baaaac> thanks
[01:20] <jack_^> Shortstraw8: doesn't matter. run `id <user>`. is vboxusers present?
[01:20] <iceroot> lexflex: there a things which are more evil you can do then that
[01:20] <bandit5432> dijonyummy,  i cant duplicate my windows key works as long as i am in the windows 7 window and alt+tab only switch to apps in the windows guest
[01:20] <baaaac> thanks
[01:20] <Revo_Truth63> I lost my windows 7 os how could i get it back?
[01:20] <jack_^> bandit5432: i cant figure out how to display it. do you know the command off the top of your head?
[01:20] <dr_willis> lexflex:  depends on your ram
[01:20] <iceroot> Revo_Truth63: ##windows
[01:20] <bandit5432> jack_^,  display what?
[01:20] <lexflex> dr_willis: 8 gig
[01:20] <jack_^> the model using the utility. its a dell studio 1569
[01:20] <iceroot> Revo_Truth63: or do you mean in the boot-menu?
[01:21] <dr_willis> Revo_Truth63:  depends on how it got lost and what you mean by lost
[01:21] <baaaac> !register|baaaac
[01:21] <lexflex> okay but how the heck do i append the freed space from the swap partition to the ubuntu partition?
[01:21] <Revo_Truth63> boot
[01:21] <robin0800> hylian, if you use ccsm you can see if the unity plug in is enabled if it is its 3d
[01:21] <iceroot> lexflex: resize with gparted
[01:21] <pyro83> anybody able to get themes working on 10.10?
[01:21] <dr_willis> lexflex:  gparted from a livecd
[01:21] <iceroot> lexflex: but only in a live-system
[01:21] <hhhzzzarn> Revo_Truth: how did you lose your windows 7 from the boot menu?
[01:21] <hylian> robin0800, thanks, i'll try that,
[01:21] <lexflex> iceroot: live-system? boot from cd that is?
[01:21] <iceroot> !grub2 | Revo_Truth63
[01:22] <iceroot> lexflex: yes
[01:22] <lexflex> iceroot: would it be faster to boot from stick? boot from cd is awfully slow
[01:22] <iceroot> lexflex: its the same
[01:22] <xangua> pyro83: if you mean gtk3 themes use gnome-tweak , if you mean gnome2, ubuntu oneiric uses gnome 3.2
[01:22] <xangua> gtk2*
[01:22] <lexflex> iceroot: aww
[01:22] <iceroot> lexflex: just dont mount / of your real system to do the task
[01:22] <lexflex> okay i have to go now anyway
[01:22] <dr_willis> lexflex:  you dont resize partitions that are in use/mounted.. thats the point of the live cd/usb
[01:23] <Revo_Truth63> when I used Ubantu Live CD  and it asked to complete or partial partionon and i told it to just do a partial but it wiped it all
[01:23] <hhhzzzarn> Revo_Truth: try opening terminal and typing: "sude update_grub"
[01:23] <lexflex> okay, i will try this tomorrow
[01:23] <iceroot> Revo_Truth63: then there is no way to get windows back
[01:23] <lexflex> have a good night all you guys. thank you very much. especially iceroot
[01:23] <iceroot> lexflex: you are welcome
[01:23] <dr_willis> Revo_Truth63:  so it did install correctly?
[01:23] <hhhzzzarn> Revo, it could not have done that.
 use livecd to install'
[01:24] <Shortstraw8> jack_^ From terminal?
[01:24] <jack_^> Shortstraw8: yes
[01:24] <korokos> hello, gedit doesn't recognize Turkish characters anymore how can i fix this?
[01:24] <pyro83> xangua: so gnome-tweak will work for oneiric?
[01:24] <hhhzzzarn> Revo, open "gedit" application
[01:24] <hhhzzzarn> Revo: and see if you still have the windows 7 parition.
[01:24] <korokos> it happened after install restricted extras
[01:24] <dr_willis> its possible it did resize and just made no grub entry and the data is still there Revo_Truth63
[01:25] <robin0800> pyro83, its gnome-tweak-tool
[01:25] <Sav1or> WHY CANT I HOLD ALL THESE LIMES
[01:25] <dr_willis> pyro83:  it has a version for oneric yes.
[01:25] <hylian> robin0800, the unity plug in is enabled. how do i get ubuntu to default to unity 2d? you used to be able to do it just by logging out, and then logging back in the d.e. you desired...
[01:25] <Shortstraw8> I just get a sytax error near unexpected token `newline`
[01:25] <hhhzzzarn> pyro83: download "gnome-shell" and also "gnome-tweak
[01:26] <robin0800> hylian, thought you still could
[01:26] <Sav1or> WHY CANT I HOLD ALL THESE LIMES
[01:26] <pyro83> cool, thanks everyone
[01:26] <Sav1or> SOME EXPLAIN THIS MADNESS
[01:26] <FloodBot1> Sav1or: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:26] <dr_willis> Sav1or:  try lemons?
[01:26] <deusr> hi
[01:26] <Flannel> Sav1or: Please stop that.  This channel is for Ubuntu technical support.  Take offtopic chatter elsewhere.  Thanks.
[01:27] <OerHeks> Sav1or, we can read lowercase too
[01:27] <Revo_Truth63> i opened gedit now what?
[01:27] <hylian> robin0800, no, this has been a problem since 11.10. I was hoping with the last update they would have fixed it. i haven't found a decent solution either.
[01:27] <hhhzzzarn> savior: #ubuntu_offopic?
[01:27] <bandit5432> jack_^,  did you figure it out?
[01:27] <jack_^> bandit5432: not yet, but my download of the iso completed so im burning it as we speak heh
[01:27] <deusr> I'm having trouble connecting to MSN for Empathy, someone is in trouble too?
[01:28] <bandit5432> jack_^,  what iso?
[01:28] <fenix-migusta> i have (lol)
[01:28] <jack_^> bandit5432: a win livecd
[01:28] <jack_^> bandit5432: re-running through the guide says my bios are up-to-date. im not sure if i believe that, but that may be the reason i'm having an issue
[01:28] <bandit5432> jack_^,  oh ok that should work i  have not updated in a while
[01:28] <jack_^> :s
[01:28] <bandit5432> i hate bios updated
[01:28] <bandit5432> updates'
[01:29] <korokos> how can i start gedit with UTF-8 codepage?
[01:30] <bandit5432> korokos, sun docs seem to say Open dtpad [if using CDE], or gedit if using GNOME. Either one of these text editors running in a UTF-8 locale will, by default, save files as UTF-8 encoded.
[01:31] <robin0800> hylian, its on the gear symbol when you log in
[01:31] <korokos> bandit5432, gedit doesn't recognize Turkish (my language) characters anymore
[01:31] <r3b00tx> Hi, How can i share a folder under thunar? i m using xubuntu 11.10. thanks
[01:31] <hylian> robin0800, i know that, but "ubuntu 2d" doesn't stay the default. i log out, and then i'm defaulted back to regualr unity.
[01:32] <bandit5432> is there a turkish ubuntu channel?
[01:32] <r3b00tx> It was simply right click and choose share folder on nautilus but how can it be done on thunar?
[01:32] <hays> hey I have a realtek 8111E and am installing kubuntu 10.04.  unfortunately i can't seem to get an internet connection
[01:32] <hays> the drivers seem to require "make" and kernel sources, which are not included in my install.  any way to get them?
[01:33] <robin0800> hylian, if you use dconf you can tick the box to save session
[01:33] <hylian> robin0800, thanks, i'll take a look at that.
[01:34] <deusr> hello, someone alive?
[01:34] <xangua> deusr: welcome to zombie land
[01:35] <bandit5432> :|
[01:35] <bandit5432> i hate when you try and help some one and they bail
[01:35] <deusr> xangua, hehe
[01:35] <deusr> xangua, I'm having trouble connecting to MSN for Empathy
[01:36] <bandit5432> r3b00tx, did you install thunar share ?
[01:37] <r3b00tx> bandit5432, no. is tat available in the repository?
[01:37] <bandit5432> r3b00tx, just found that let me look for it real quick
[01:38] <bandit5432> r3b00tx, are you running 11.10?
[01:38] <hylian> robin0800, actually, dconf refuses to run, even when i sudo it, and ccsm screwed up regular unity bad. fixing ccsm problem currently. lol. new systems, new bugs. I love ubuntu, definetly a challennge. :)
[01:39] <Roasted> I'm getting an error when starting dhcp on 11.10. "Not configured to listen on any interfaces!" I have a static IP @ 192.168.3.1 and my DHCP range is 192.168.10.3 to 255. What could be wrong??
[01:39] <r3b00tx> bandit5432, yes. seems its not in the repository. ppa its there
[01:39] <robin0800> hylian, was this an upgrade?
[01:39] <bandit5432> r3b00tx, the repo looks like its for 10.04
[01:40] <hylian> robin0800, no, fresh install. it's been a real learning grade with unity, but i'm getting the hang of things.
[01:40] <bandit5432> r3b00tx, are you trying to share or browse the browse part is built into thunar now
[01:40] <hylian> robin0800, i have to log out to repair ccsm damage.
[01:41] <r3b00tx> bandit5432, just to share. browsing is working fine. Installed samba and i didnt seem to find an option to share a folder like the one on nautilus
[01:41] <robin0800> hylian, think you can just set ccsm back to its unity defaults
[01:42] <bandit5432> thunar-share no longer works because of broken dependencies
[01:43] <Larika> hello all, is empathy msn account working for you?
[01:43] <r3b00tx> bandit5432, so i dont have any other choice?
[01:44] <induz> how can i get dependencies dor driver Hplip 3.10
[01:44] <xangua> Larika: it does for me with latest pidgin ;)
[01:46] <dimon> есть тут кто?
[01:46] <bandit5432> r3b00tx,  try running this from a terminal shares-admin
[01:47] <fenix-migusta> hi, can someone give me a hand with the launchpad?
[01:48] <r3b00tx> bandit5432, looks good. will try it out.. thanks dude
[01:49] <bandit5432> r3b00tx, hope it works for you
[01:49] <bandit5432> r3b00tx, make sure to add your users to smbpasswd
[01:50] <fenix-migusta> :(
[01:50] <hylian> robin0800, yeah, lightdm stores your default for your current session, but as soon as you reboot, unity "3d" is the default./
[01:50] <bandit5432> fenix-migusta, whats the problem?
[01:50] <IPGD> hi
[01:51] <IPGD> i have problem W: Failed to fetch gzip:/var/lib/apt/lists/partial/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_oneiric_main_binary-i386_Packages  Hash Sum mismatch
[01:51] <IPGD>  
[01:52] <hylian> how do i make unity 2d the default instead of regular unity?
[01:53] <c_smith> hello, I'm looking to buy a game from Loki Games (pre-owned, ofc) and am wondering if it would possibly be incompatible with the current kernel version and glibc version, as this game uses kernel version 2.2.x and glibc-2.1, f.y.i. Loki Games closed in '02
[01:53] <bandit5432> IPGD, try sudo rm -Rf /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/*
[01:54] <bandit5432> IPGD, then sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[01:54] <bandit5432> IPGD,  then sudo apt-get -f update
[01:54] <robin0800> hylian, dconf org/gnome/gnome-session
[01:55] <bandit5432> IPGD, see http://ubuntu-indonesia.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/78327/Ubuntu_Software_Center_Trouble
[01:55] <IPGD> success ...
[01:55] <IPGD> thx bandit ....
[01:55] <bandit5432> IPGD,  your welcome
[01:55] <bandit5432> how many people i have to help before some one helps me with kernel 3.1 ??
[01:56] <Roasted> I'm getting an error when starting dhcp on 11.10. "Not configured to listen on any interfaces!" I have a static IP @ 192.168.3.1 and my DHCP range is 192.168.10.3 to 255. What could be wrong??
[01:56] <bandit5432> if you have a static ip why use dhcp?
[01:56] <Roasted> because the static IP is of the server
[01:56] <Roasted> its the DHCP server I'm working with.
[01:57] <bandit5432> gotcha now
[01:57] <hylian> robin0800, dconf refuses to launch, whether in the menu, or in the terminal... i installed via apt...
[01:57] <bandit5432> i would think you would want the ip range to be 192.168.3.10 to  .255
[01:58] <Roasted> bandit5432, hang on a sec. I may have made a typo
[01:58] <Roasted> bandit5432, yeah, that was a typo. its 3.10, not 10.3
[01:58] <deusr> Is anyone with this kind of problem? http://askubuntu.com/questions/76948/problems-connecting-msn-with-empathy
[01:58] <[deXter]> Hi all, have a weird issue in this HP Pavillion laptop. After installing Ubuntu (or even booting from a live USB) and then after a reboot, the system hangs at the POST screen (showing the HP logo) and is unresponsive. Ctrl+Alt+Del to reboot fixes the issue. Any ideas what could be the problem? Thanks!
[01:59] <bandit5432> Roasted, in the dhcpd.conf do you have a INTERFACES= "eth0" line?
[01:59] <dr_willis> c_smith:  a lot of the old comercial games have sound or othe issues with new distros. i wouldent invest a lot of money in an older used game.
[02:00] <Roasted> bandit5432, no. I never heard of that being needed to dhcpd.conf?
[02:00] <bandit5432> Roasted, also look into /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server
[02:00] <bandit5432> Roasted, file
[02:00] <Roasted> bandit5432, yeah, I have INTERFACSE="eth0" there, but not in dhcpd.conf
[02:00] <hylian> robin0800, thanks for helping me, i'm gonna log out now, (messing with settings, who knows...)
[02:01] <tash> mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1: mke2fs 1.41.11 (14-Mar-2010) /dev/sdb1 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!
[02:01] <bandit5432> Roasted, ok
[02:01] <tash> can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
[02:01] <dr_willis> tash:  sdb1 is mounted somewhere
[02:01] <bandit5432> Roasted, do you have multiple nics?
[02:01] <dr_willis> check mount output
[02:02] <robin0800> hylian, did you install the right one
[02:02] <Roasted> bandit5432, just eth0 and wlan0. This is a laptop I'm using for a quick demo with dhcp, which is why Im using it as a dhcp server even though its a laptop
[02:02] <tash> running mount only outputs an ext4 on /dev/sda1 and then a bunch of 'none on /proc typ proc', 'none on /sys type syfs' and so on
[02:02] <tash> I could paste mount output somewhere if it helps
[02:03] <dr_willis> tash:  what fs is sdb1 now?
[02:03] <tash> not even sure how to tell :\
[02:03] <dr_willis> sudo fdisk -l
[02:03] <tash> did that
[02:03] <tash> looking
[02:04] <tash> what in the output am I looking for?
[02:04] <tash> it doesn't say ext4, for example
[02:04] <dr_willis> tash:  i always use a gparted live cd normally to do this stuff. seems to cause less hassles.
[02:04] <tash> I'm remote :(
[02:04] <dr_willis> what does it say about sdb
[02:04] <lyris> i have an issue with 11.10 being slow. I ensured v sync in nvidia was turned off
[02:04] <root__> ping facebook.com
[02:04] <lyris> i used CCSM in 11.04 but it broke the unity shell in 11.10
[02:05] <tash> gives size, etc/ ... then Device Boot: /dev/sdb1 Start: 1 End: 121601 Blocks: 976760001 ID: 83 System: Linux
[02:05] <r3b00tx> bandit5432, works great. thanks again
[02:05] <tash> that was, etc ... not as in an etc directory :)
[02:06] <tash> dr_willis: http://pastie.org/2828680
[02:06] <bandit5432> what did he does
[02:06] <tash> bbiab, sorry
[02:07] <dr_willis> tash:  so what are you formating it to?
[02:07] <C4L4D0> emesene don't works today ?
[02:07] <hays> does anyone here have any idea how to get a RTL 8111E working on a fresh kubuntu install?
[02:07] <C4L4D0> works with somebody ?
[02:07] <dr_willis> C4L4D0:  seen  few others in here mentioning issues wuth it.
[02:08] <bandit5432> hays, did you get the driver from realtek?
[02:08] <dr_willis> whats a RTL 8111e
[02:09] <hays> yes but i can't install it without some key programs like 'make'
[02:09] <dr_willis> catch 22.. need wired to get wireless going. ;)
[02:09] <C4L4D0> dr_willis, today..  I can't connect by the emesene, only pidgin..
[02:09] <C4L4D0> dr_willis, service client down ?! maybe.. ?
[02:10] <dr_willis> C4L4D0:  i dont use any of them. ive jsut seen others mention emesence today
[02:10] <root__> hallo
[02:10] <hays> dr_willis: its a wired NIC built into my motherboard
[02:10] <dr_willis> hmm. never seen a wired nic that dident work.

[02:11] <dr_willis> had some with buggy drivers. ;)
[02:11] <CandyTiger> when trying to install from the sofware center: "failed to download package files. check your internet connection"
[02:11] <hays> dr_willis: well i guess i am just lucky
[02:11] <hays> is there a distro that will at least give me kernel source and make on the installation CD?
[02:12] <CandyTiger> after that: "Requires installation of untrusted packages"
[02:12] <dr_willis> theres  been some network outages today , ive heard mention. not sure why.
[02:12] <LuckySMack> any recommendations on keeping a set of files synced from a harddrive across computers? git is a bit much, just want to sync based on most recent modified/created date
[02:12] <dr_willis> hays:  linux from scratch lice cd. ;)  not sure of others
[02:12] <LuckySMack> something that may hopefully work on ubuntu and windows.
[02:13] <dr_willis> LuckySMack:  theres that unisense app.
[02:13] <dr_willis> unisynce, bah...
[02:13] <dr_willis> i never can spell it.
[02:14] <dr_willis> !backup
[02:14] <LuckySMack> unisync server?
[02:14] <LuckySMack> thats what came up
[02:14] <dr_willis> not sync
[02:14] <LuckySMack> thanks
[02:14] <hays> dr_willis: linux is in a really bad state of affairs if you have to go with LFS to get a damn NIC to work which has linux drivers provided
[02:15] <caoxiaomin> join /#ubuntu
[02:15] <dr_willis> but teres alternatives to all them
[02:15] <caoxiaomin> 外国电影里面用的系统都是什么系统
[02:15] <bandit5432> hays, get the drivers from here http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=13&PFid=5&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false
[02:15] <hays> bandit5432: i did
[02:15] <dr_willis> hays:  its very likely restricted licenseing by the hw makers thats to blame
[02:15] <hays> bandit5432: installing requres a kernel tree and make
[02:15] <bandit5432> hays install the kernel headers
[02:16] <hays> bandit5432: they are installed
[02:16] <dr_willis> otherwise they could be included inthe default kernel.
[02:16] <dr_willis> or the stuff is so new its not in the kernel yet
[02:16] <bandit5432> hays, did you install build tools
[02:16] <jimubao> caoxiaomin: huh @@
[02:17] <eyesuck_> hello, is it possible to regain the bottom nav bar in ubuntu 11.10?
[02:17] <tash> dr_willis: I want /dev/sdb1 to be ext4
[02:17] <eyesuck_> or to move the left nav bar to the bottom?
[02:17] <tash> then I want to mount it, which I know how to do...having issues with the formatting part I guess
[02:17] <hays> bandit5432: everything that comes on the kubuntu CD appears tobe installed

[02:18] <willwh> hi folks - occaisonally when in a screen session, if I open a new window inside my screen (ctrl +a, c) - it throws me to, willwh@web:/(unreachable) - any ideas?
[02:18] <bandit5432> hays, you dont have any access to a working network connection on this computer?
[02:18] <Roasted> I'm getting an error when starting dhcp on 11.10. "Not configured to listen on any interfaces!" I have a static IP @ 192.168.3.1 and my DHCP range is 192.168.3.10 to 255. What could be wrong??
[02:18] <khing> xiaomin,你在问什么情况下的系统？工作？家里？
[02:19] <hays> bandit5432: no.  that is the problem
[02:19] <hays> bandit5432: the network interface card is not working
[02:19] <rasusto> does anybody know how to get the fading selection box like in the new ubuntu? what window type or class do I use to get that in compiz
[02:19] <bandit5432> Roasted, i thought you got it working
[02:20] <Roasted> bandit5432, nope.
[02:20] <Roasted> bandit5432, about to commit homicide in a minute here if I don't get it working.
[02:20] <dr_willis> bbl

[02:24] <Braber01> hi, How do I enable my keyring for my login shell? and does anybody know where I  can get a cooling pad or something one of my fans seems to have failed.
[02:25] <bandit5432> Roasted, in /var/log/syslog are you getting No subnet declaration for eth0  ?
[02:25] <Roasted> bandit5432, actually yeah.
[02:26] <Roasted> bandit5432, what are they referring to with my subnet declaration?
[02:26] <bandit5432> Roasted, see http://www.basicconfig.com/linuxnetwork/configure_dhcp_server_ubuntu
[02:27] <Roasted> bandit5432, I'm not sure I fully understand.
[02:27] <garexs> HI
[02:28] <bandit5432> Roasted, in /etc/default/dhcp3-server do you have an interface line?
[02:29] <garexs> Guy I am at the installation stage and it is stuck on the "creating ext4 file system for partitions # of SCSI17 (0,0,0) (sda)
[02:29] <garexs> Its been there for a long time now
[02:29] <Roasted> bandit5432, there is no dhcp3-server, but there is isc-dhcp-server, which is how newer versions of ubuntu work. but in that file I do have an interfaces line, and eth0 is listed there.;
[02:31] <bandit5432> Roasted, you also need to add the mac address of the interface to use in the dhcpd.conf file host fantasia {
[02:31] <bandit5432> hardware ethernet 08:00:02:24:c1:a3;
[02:31] <bandit5432> fixed-address 192.168.1.120;
[02:31] <bandit5432> }
[02:31] <bandit5432> see http://www.virtualhelp.me/linux/104-installing-dhcp-server-on-linux and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/dhcp3-server
[02:31] <garexs> anyone have any clue?
[02:32] <bandit5432> Roasted, if that does not work post the dhcpd.conf on http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[02:32] <garexs> I am stuck on the installation screen
[02:32] <OldParr> garexs: machine your could be halted
[02:33] <bandit5432> hays, you figure anything out?
[02:33] <garexs> It looks active OldParr
[02:33] <garexs> because I am able to do other things like chat here
[02:33] <hays> bandit5432: going to try fedora
[02:33] <bandit5432> hays, that wont fix it
[02:33] <bandit5432> hays, let me look one other place
[02:33] <hays> they at least have a kernel module .rpm
[02:34] <OldParr> garexs: restart it and do not chat while installing
[02:34] <hays> which will probably fix it if its not out of the box
[02:34] <Roasted> bandit5432, didnt work.
[02:34] <garexs> OldParr: I was not doing anything before
[02:34] <garexs> I cam to chat because of this problem
[02:34] <garexs> I left it totally alone
[02:34] <enbloc> PS/2 keyboard works until after login. I know it's HAL related,  (ubuntu 10.04) but I'm not finding much about fixing it.
[02:34] <bandit5432> Roasted, if that does not work post the dhcpd.conf on http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[02:34] <OldParr> garexs: if i were you i will restart the installation
[02:34] <garexs> ok
[02:35] <garexs> could it also be my HD>?
[02:35] <Roasted> bandit5432, http://pastebin.com/gXH6pBey
[02:35] <garexs> Its 500 GB
[02:35] <garexs> Maybe it takes longer for bigger HD?
[02:35] <garexs> Or no
[02:35] <yeats> garexs: try opening a terminal and typing 'sudo tail -f /var/log/messages'
[02:35] <garexs> yeats: ok'
[02:35] <bandit5432> Roasted, host fantasia { should be the name of your computer form hostanem

[02:36] <garexs> I copied and pasted it
[02:37] <garexs> tail: cannot open `/var/log/messages' for reading: No such file or directory
[02:37] <garexs> Thats what it says
[02:37] <Roasted> bandit5432, made no difference.
[02:37] <bandit5432> Roasted,  you also need another } at line 23 or
[02:38] <Roasted> bandit5432, even still, made no difference
[02:38] <enbloc> and then starts working again
[02:38] <yeats> garexs: then try 'sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog'
[02:38] <Roasted> what in the world changed in 11.10
[02:38] <Roasted> I ahd NO problems with dhcp in 11.04 and back

[02:39] <bandit5432> did you copy the files from a working install?
[02:39] <garexs> yeats: want me to pastebin?
[02:39] <yeats> garexs: yes
[02:39] <garexs> ok

[02:40] <garexs> yeats: http://pastebin.com/50Uu4jsg
[02:40] <Guest39700> In ubuntu, the unity when you click the top icon that brings up where you can type an application you want to launch. That transparent box that comes up, it comes up full screen. Is there a way to change it so it doesnt take up the whole screen? like the box is smaller.
[02:40] <bandit5432> Roasted, could you post the whole error you are getting?
[02:41] <simpleblue> i don't think there is an mirc for linux
[02:41] <yeats> garexs: wait - this is mint?
[02:41] <garexs> Yes, but the setup is the same as ubuntu
[02:41] <bandit5432> Roasted, i think the problem is farther back from the interface error line
[02:41] <khing> Yea.. actually I'm using mirc on win7 now..
[02:41] <yeats> garexs: there's enough different that mint isn't supported here - sorry
[02:41] <Roasted> bandit5432, http://pastebin.com/NhB85yT4

[02:42] <garexs> noone ever answers there
[02:42] <garexs> but ok
[02:43] <yeats> garexs: you could install ubuntu ;-)
[02:43] <garexs> haha
[02:43] <bandit5432> comment out the next server line
[02:43] <Roasted> mint is close enough to ubuntu that I wonder why it exists....
[02:43] <Roasted> no offense...
[02:43] <garexs> its more windowsish
[02:43] <Roasted> bandit5432, in which file?
[02:43] <garexs> Like the CTR ALT DEL
[02:43] <garexs> is there
[02:43] <garexs> ANd we can end tasks
[02:43] <Roasted> garexs, even more reason not to use it...
[02:44] <garexs> I dont see that in UBuntu
[02:44] <Roasted> garexs, to each his own.
[02:44] <bandit5432> Roasted, thats in the dhcpd.conf you posted

[02:44] <Roasted> bandit5432, still failed
[02:44] <garexs> OK I am restarting
[02:45] <garexs> peace
[02:45] <yeats> garexs: good luck
[02:45] <bandit5432> Roasted, how are you restarting it?
[02:45] <ring1> ubuntu can't end tasks, good one :D
[02:45] <Guest39700> In ubuntu, the unity when you click the top icon that brings up where you can type an application you want to launch. That transparent box that comes up, it comes up full screen. Is there a way to change it so it doesnt take up the whole screen? like the box is smaller.
[02:45] <Roasted> bandit5432, sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart, then sudo service isc-dhcp-server restart
[02:46] <bandit5432> Roasted, dont need to restart the networking
[02:46] <bandit5432> Roasted, post the /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server please
[02:47] <Roasted> bandit5432,

[02:47] <khing> I heard that for irssi, there is a command to disable join/part messages
[02:48] <Pici> !quietirssi | khing
[02:48] <chroot> hi, is there anybody ever used ubuntu clouding
[02:49] <bandit5432> Roasted, i take it you are setting up fog
[02:49] <Roasted> bandit5432, trying to
[02:49] <bandit5432> Roasted, oh the joys i have heard
[02:49] <Roasted> bandit5432, about what?
[02:50] <bandit5432> Roasted, setting up fog
[02:50] <Roasted> bandit5432, FOG is an outstanding product. I've imaged about 5,000 systems with it. Nothing beats it.
[02:50] <Roasted> bandit5432, the problem is Ubuntu continually changes up crap which causes FOG to have to continually re-vamp their setup scripts.
[02:50] <khing> Is there similar command in mirc? looks like /ignore is not working...
[02:50] <Roasted> bandit5432, it's actually quite brainless to set it up. As you can see, this is not a FOG problem. It's a DHCP problem.
[02:50] <bandit5432> Roasted, yes and things have to be in certain spots for fog to work correctly
[02:51] <Roasted> bandit5432, again, that's a problem with Ubuntu continually changing crap.
[02:51] <Roasted> bandit5432, I've used FOG for years. It's nothing short of beautiful. But each release of Ubuntu introduces new BS to overcome.
[02:51] <bandit5432> Roasted, then why not stick with a lts release?
[02:51] <Roasted> bandit5432, I could, but I had a 11.10 laptop handy and I wanted to demo it. Now I'm so ticked at this thing I'm determined to get it working.
[02:52] <bandit5432> Roasted, i understand that
[02:52] <fellayaboy> any idea why u cant connect when u use torify xchat
[02:52] <Roasted> bandit5432, it'd be nice if FOG was a darn .deb...
[02:52] <bandit5432> roasted have you tried a reboot?
[02:52] <Roasted> bandit5432, dozens
[02:53] <bandit5432> bandit5432 <------------ windows training showing
[02:53] <norway> in 11.10 is there a master way to exit a game or a keyboard shortcut you could make to system monitor i have games without a way to close them please help?
[02:54] <werever> hi friends I need to remove all wireless
[02:54] <bandit5432> Roasted, have you tried renaming the fog dhcpd.conf and trying a defualt ubuntu one and editing it?
[02:54] <Roasted> bandit5432, at this point I don't even care about FOG. I just want o get DHCP working for my own sanity.
[02:54] <Roasted> bandit5432, the fog dhcpd.conf?????
[02:54] <meoblast001> hi
[02:54] <meoblast001> how do i disable notifications in Gnome classic?
[02:55] <bandit5432> Roasted, the one you posted says This file was created by FOG
[02:56] <norway> in 11.10 is there a master way to exit a game or a keyboard shortcut you could make to system monitor i have games without a way to close them please help?
[02:57] <Roasted> bandit5432, I just did a remove --purge of dhcp3-server. When I reinstalled, it didnt bring back a new dhcpd.conf.
[02:57] <Roasted> any ideas?
[02:57] <bandit5432> Roasted, thats the /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf  didnt come back?
[02:57] <JoshDreamland> Am I the only one that's noticed nautilus-dropbox is completely busted?
[02:58] <Roasted> bandit5432, dhcp3 exists in /etc, but the only thing inside is dhclient-enter-hooks.d
[02:58] <bandit5432> Roasted, where you editing the /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf  not the /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf  file?
[02:59] <Roasted> bandit5432, yes. one of the links I read said to do that (I think it was one you may have linked??)
[02:59] <Roasted> bandit5432, /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf does not exist.
[02:59] <bandit5432> Roasted, that might be the problem
[02:59] <norway> is there like a ctrl alt X to kill a current process or something please help
[03:00] <bandit5432> Roasted, or not let me install it real quick
[03:00] <hhhzzzarn> anyone proffisional data recovers here?
[03:00] <bandit5432> norway, you can ctrl+c to kill some
[03:01] <norway> thanx i tried that though :-(
[03:01] <hhhzzzarn> anyone good with recoverying lost partitions from external hd?
[03:01] <bandit5432> norway, or ctrl+alt+f1 login and ps -A to find the name of what you want ti kill
[03:01] <bandit5432> then sudo kill ## of process to kill
[03:01] <pnorman> What's the proper way to add a directory to where the linker is searching? It needs to take effect for all users.
[03:02] <phlak_user> norway: just launch a terminal (gnome-terminal or xterm) and type ps -fe | grep name-of-process ; once you know the process name and PID, you can either type killall -9 process-name  or kill -9 PID (if process owned by your user) else use sudo
[03:04] <bandit5432> Roasted, it would be in dhcp/dhcpd.conf
[03:04] <phlak_user> pnorman: add it to /etc/ld.so.conf and update using ldconfig -v
[03:05] <pnorman> phlak_user: Is that better than making a new .conf file in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/?
[03:05] <norway> ty guys how you get back out of ctrl alt f1 lol
[03:05] <norway> ?
[03:07] <phlak_user> pnorman: ldconfig looks inside ld.so.conf.d also, so you could create a file there but generally, i would do it if it were for a specific app to ensure better categorization and manageability
[03:07] <phlak_user> norway: ctl+f7
[03:07] <Roasted> bandit5432, so I was editing the right area?
[03:07] <phlak_user> norway: oops alt-f7
[03:08] <bandit5432> Roasted, yes you dont have a /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf file do you i doubt it but check please
[03:08] <wobblyonions> guys , how do you move the toolbar from the left side of the screen to the top in Ubuntu 11
[03:08] <Roasted> bandit5432, oh crap... I totally forgot about LTSP....
[03:08] <Roasted> bandit5432, wowwwwwww thats gotta be it. huh?
[03:09] <norway> k thanx so what would be the command to kill PID 1020?
[03:09] <bandit5432> Roasted, i think so # Attention: If /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf exists, that will be used as
[03:09] <Guest39700> Someone help me with the unity, I want to know how to resize that transparent window that pops up when you type in an applications name to launch
[03:09] <bandit5432> # configuration file instead of this file.
[03:09] <robin0800> wobblyonions, you cant but there is a hack to move it to the bottom
[03:09] <bandit5432> norway,  sudo kill 1020
[03:09] <wobblyonions> ah awesome how can I do that
[03:09] <norway> kewl thanx
[03:10] <Roasted> bandit5432, wow. that was it.
[03:10] <wobblyonions> having it on the left pisses me right off as using synergy and it tototally messes with that
[03:10] <Roasted> bandit5432, oh my gosh I want to slap myself.
[03:10] <bandit5432> or what phlak_user said <phlak_user> norway: just launch a terminal (gnome-terminal or xterm) and type ps -fe | grep name-of-process ; once you know the process name and PID, you can either type killall -9 process-name  or kill -9 PID (if process owned by your user) else use sudo
[03:10] <pnorman> phlak_user: It was already in one of the .conf files, but ldconfig -v fixed it
[03:10] <Roasted> bandit5432, you are AWESOME. what made you think of ltsp?
[03:10] <phlak_user> pnorman: ok
[03:10] <pnorman> !cookie | phlak_user
[03:10] <norway> u guys r awesome
[03:10] <bandit5432> Roasted, its in the first line of the dhcpd.conf file # Attention: If /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf exists, that will be used as # configuration file instead of this file.
[03:10]  * phlak_user needed that to go with his coffee
[03:11] <pnorman> When setting up mapserver, *any* progress is good
[03:11] <Braber01> how to I tell Ubuntu that I want my keyring unlocked as soon as I login to my loginshell?
[03:11] <Roasted> bandit5432, :(
[03:11] <Braber01> s/to/do
[03:11] <bandit5432> Roasted, you can brag about it tomorrow how it was hard and how you figured it out
[03:12] <bandit5432> Roasted, i have learned alot about dhcpd so i am happy
[03:12] <admiralshlorky> howdy folks
[03:12] <admiralshlorky> i think i'm retarded or something
[03:12] <Roasted> bandit5432, I'd rather brag about how sick nasty amazing awesome the users in #ubuntu are in terms of helping people out.
[03:12] <bandit5432> Roasted, well some of them are
[03:12] <admiralshlorky> but i'm trying to turn consecutive spaces into a single space
[03:13] <Roasted> bandit5432, the vast majority are, which warrants bragging of that nature. ;)
[03:13] <admiralshlorky> and i was trying to do it like so
[03:13] <bandit5432> :)
[03:13] <admiralshlorky>  sed 's/ \+/ /\
[03:13] <admiralshlorky> derp
[03:13] <admiralshlorky> replace that last slash with a quote
[03:13] <admiralshlorky>  sed 's/ \+/ /'

[03:13] <admiralshlorky> can anyone tell me what in the hell i'm doing wrong?
[03:14] <Max_Stone> Can I get suggestions for debian.org's ISOs? I don't know which ones if any I should download.

[03:15] <erpo> Hi. I don't know if this is an appropriate question for this channel, but I would appreciate some help. I'm attempting to learn japanese with the help of a Japanese person online. His family name is Takahashi, but he spells it with the kanji 髙 instead of the more typical kanji 高. I'm using anthy on Ubuntu 11.10. Is there a way I can type the correct kanji without having to copy and paste it each time?
[03:15] <phlak_user> !tr
[03:15] <josh_> Will do
[03:15] <rickssound> any ham radio operators online
[03:16] <phlak_user> oops
[03:16] <hhhzzzarn> erpo, no help here? lol
[03:16] <papna> I'm running Natty. Ubuntu is currently convinced my left mouse button is depressed. (When it started, it was dragging something around. I killed that process, so now it just won't let me click on things.) The problem isn't fixed by changing mice, so I don't think it's a hardware issue.
[03:16] <papna> I had this happen earlier today and a reboot cleared it up for a while.
[03:16] <hhhzzzarn> papna, tried restarting?
[03:16] <admiralshlorky> hmm
[03:16] <chopin> anyone know how to "forget" a wireless network in 11.10?
[03:16] <phlak_user> erpo: did you try changing the keyboard layout to the desired type? you can setup a hotkey to shift between layouts too (i use alt-capslock)
[03:17] <erpo> hhhzzzarn: I just learned in ##japanese that you can add custom dictionary entries to anthy, so I may have a solution.
[03:17] <admiralshlorky> phlak_user: i need to get better at using sed
[03:17] <phlak_user> chopin: edit-connections and delete
[03:17] <hhhzzzarn> chopin, right-click, edit connection, wireless tab and delete
[03:17] <phlak_user> admiralshlorky: ok
[03:17] <papna> hhhzzzarn: I did, but that only worked for a little while. I prefer to use my computer in >15 minute intervals.
[03:17] <erpo> phlak_user: I can use anthy without a problem. I just don't think anthy knows about that variant of the kanji.
[03:17] <josh_> What is the key for screen capture  on linux now?
[03:17] <phlak_user> erpo: oh ok
[03:17] <chopin> phlak_user: thanks, i'll try that
[03:17] <bandit5432> josh_, printscreen?

[03:17] <josh_> ah
[03:18] <bandit5432> or alt+printscreen

[03:18] <Revo_Truth63> any one know of any dj mixer programs?
[03:18] <phlak_user> josh_: it asks you
[03:18] <bandit5432> josh_, should ask where you want to save it

[03:19] <josh_> file:///home/josh/Pictures/Errorscreen.png
[03:20] <hhhzzzarn> javier, well i don't, it might have to do with driver.
[03:20] <hhhzzzarn> javier, test your speed at "speedtest.net" is it the same under windows?
[03:20] <bandit5432> josh_, thats on your computer you have to upload it to a picture service for us to see

[03:21] <bandit5432> whats the one that the chan recommends when you join?
[03:21] <javier_> bandit5432, Hi. I think it's an atheros. But, to be sure, can you tell me how can I ask that in terminal?
[03:21] <josh_> http://i43.tinypic.com/2v9oqxi.png
[03:21] <pnorman> tash: I think I have
[03:22] <javier_> bandit5432, I checked. My cards are : Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM57780 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe (rev 01)
[03:22] <tash> pnorman: I'm having a heck of a time getting a 1TB drive ( 2nd drive ) installed on my Ubuntu box
[03:22] <javier_> 02:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR9287 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01)
[03:22] <tash> I want it to be ext4
[03:22] <javier_> bandit5432, so, it's wireless problem, it's atheros
[03:22] <pnorman> tash: existing system?
[03:22] <chopin> ahhhhh there we go ... nm-connection-editor ftw
[03:23] <tash> pnorman: http://pastie.org/2828933
[03:23] <tash> pnorman: /dev/sdb is the 1TB that I want to setup as ext4 and mount
[03:24] <pnorman> tash: can you use something with a GUI or are you stuck with command line only?
[03:24] <hhhzzzarn> eveyone good luck solving your problems,  i have to go to sleep.
[03:24] <tash> command line
[03:24] <tash> i'm a remote guy
[03:24] <pnorman> Ah
[03:24] <tash> I've tried fdisk
[03:25] <tash> but get a message when I do mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1 that it is already in use :\
[03:25] <tash> and it isn't mounted
[03:25] <chmiel> Hi! I have a little problem with upgrade... My girlfriend have ubuntu lucid and when i type 'sudo do-release-update -d' i get "An upgrade from 'lucid' to 'precise' is not supported with this tool." Can anyone help my?
[03:25] <pnorman> tash: Most of my partitioning has been done through the ubuntu installer, or using sfdisk to copy another drive
[03:26] <josh_> http://i43.tinypic.com/2v9oqxi.png
[03:26] <bandit5432> javier_, you are not alone in this issue
[03:26] <tash> pnorman: darn
[03:26] <Layla> Can anyone tell me how to specify a window size when opening a program in the terminal?
[03:26] <tash> this shouldn't be that hard
[03:26] <pnorman> tash: My recollection is you need to make the partition then format it as ext4, it doesn't look like you've made the partition yet
[03:26] <tash> I deleted it
[03:26] <dr_willis> tash you tried just   rebootig, and trying the mkfs then?
[03:27] <dr_willis> tash:  make sure theres no fstab entries for the hd first
[03:27] <javier_> bandit5432, really? you found posts with people in the same situation? Did they find anything to solve it?
[03:27] <tash> dr_willis: no I haven't rebooted after creating the partition, then mkfs .. didn't even think of it
[03:27] <chmiel> Someone know how to update from lucid?
[03:27] <tash> dr_willis: will try that next
[03:28] <Layla> !windowsize
[03:28] <chrishunter> ÇÏ¾Ì
[03:28] <Layla> !window size
[03:28] <Layla> Window Size in Terminal | anyone?
[03:28] <bandit5432> javier_, try in a terminal echo "options ath9k nohwcrypt=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf
[03:28] <chrishunter> -_-a
[03:28] <dr_willis> tash:  if you just made the partition. the kernal may be using the old info. theres some resync command that may get if figured out
[03:28] <glebihan> Layla, this would depend on which application you're launching. A lot won't allow you to do that. Check "man appname" to see if there are options to set the window size for a specific application
[03:29] <dr_willis> Layla:  clarify the question.
[03:29] <robin0800> josh_, the red gear in top right I think the system needs a reboot first
[03:29] <Layla> glebihan tdfsb
[03:29] <bandit5432> javier_, see this post http://askubuntu.com/questions/40876/how-do-i-get-an-atheros-ar9287-working
[03:29] <josh_> Ok thanks
[03:29] <chmiel> Please!!! help!!! ;(
[03:29] <javier_> bandit5432, options ath9k nohwcrypt=1
[03:30] <javier_> bandit5432, ok, i'll read that
[03:30] <tash> dr_willis: I just created a primary partition, #1, on /dev/sdb so it is /dev/sdb1 ... just rebooted after making sure it isn't in fstab
[03:30] <tash> I'll try the mkfs on a sec
[03:30] <glebihan> Layla, ?
[03:30] <Chelsea>  
[03:30] <tash> dr_willis: /dev/sdb1 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!
[03:30] <chmiel> ... ubuntu sucks...
[03:30] <Chelsea>  
[03:30] <bandit5432> javier_, yes add it to /etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf
[03:31] <Layla> It's a 3D filesystem manager
[03:31] <dr_willis> tash:  weird. wonder how its using it with no fs.
[03:31] <jrib> chmiel: do you have an ubuntu-related support question?
[03:31] <tash> i'm stumped, this is getting kind of urgent, not sure where else to turn
[03:31] <bandit5432> Roasted, did you get it working?
[03:31] <dr_willis> tash:  there may be some force option to mkfs
[03:32] <bandit5432> dr_willis, what are we trying to accomplish?
[03:32] <chmiel> jrib: i want only upgrade my GF's ubuntu from lucid...
[03:32] <tash> dr_willis: man mkfs doesn't show any
[03:32] <glebihan> Layla, as I said, check the application's manual to see if there are options to specify the window size
[03:32] <jrib> chmiel: if you have a support question related to ubuntu, please ask it.  Other topics are not appropriate here
[03:32] <dr_willis> bandit5432:  formating a fs. that says its in use.. when its not
[03:32] <Layla> There are none... :(
[03:32] <jrib> !upgrade | chmiel
[03:33] <javier_> bandit5432, truth is, I don't really understand what am I doing. Shall I just write "echo "options ath9k nohwcrypt=1" > /etc/modprobe.d/ath9.conf"?
[03:33] <dr_willis> tash:  try mkfs --help
[03:33] <pnorman> tash: -F -F (yes, twice) will tell mkfs.ext4 to make a filesystem even if it appears to be in useor is mounted (man page warns this is truely dangerous)
[03:33] <glebihan> Layla, then you won't be able to specify the window size
[03:33] <bandit5432> dr_willis, do they have a fdisk open on it?
[03:33] <chmiel> jrib: i':)
[03:33] <dr_willis> bandit5432:  he just rebooted. so id say no
[03:33] <chmiel> :)
[03:33] <javier_> bandit5432, and it will add that line to "etc/modprobe.d/...?
[03:33] <bandit5432> rebooted into or from what?
[03:34] <bandit5432> javier_, echo "options ath9k nohwcrypt=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf
[03:34] <bandit5432> javier_, will
[03:34] <tash> pnorman: mkfs.ext4 -F -F /dev/sdb1 eh?
[03:34] <tash> same error :(
[03:34] <bandit5432> what does fdisk -l /dev/sdb say?
[03:35] <tash> bandit5432: /dev/sdb1               1      121601   976760001   83  Linux
[03:35] <dr_willis> tash:  this is a real machine, not some vps/vbox/other weirdness?
[03:35] <bandit5432> and mount says what?
[03:35] <tash> nope, bare metal machine
[03:35] <bandit5432> tash, what does mount say?
[03:35] <dr_willis> tash:  try mounting that fs now just to see if its allready formated
[03:36] <dr_willis> ;)  and if its formated see id you can write to it.
[03:36] <bandit5432> who has been moving my windows around !!
[03:36] <javier_> bandit5432, ok, I did that. But terminal stayed like it's doing something and didn't finish. That state that goes to a new line but there is nothing written. And if you try to close terminal, it ask you if you really want to close because something is running. Is it ok?
[03:37] <tash> dr_willis: here is the output of trying to mount it... mount: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'
[03:38] <dr_willis> lvm? hmm...
[03:38] <tash> bandit5432: http://pastie.org/2828985
[03:38] <bandit5432> javier_, should be you need to reboot and see if it helps
[03:39] <Roasted> bandit5432, yes, I'm good. THANK YOU
[03:39] <bandit5432> Roasted, woohoo
[03:39] <KillaByte> Is there a way to run a disk check on ubuntu(I have a hard disk drive connected to my computer via usb w windows partion)
[03:40] <Fryne> hey there guise. I'm trying to install ubuntu in my laptop and did use the windows 7 disk manager tool to free some space in my disk, but this did turn all my partitions from basic partitions to dynamic partitios. I'm affraid to turn the 'puter off since I fear I might not be able to boot to windoze 7 from a dynamic partition? Am I wrong? will I be able to boot to windoze 7 from a dynamic partition?
[03:40] <bandit5432> tash,  sudo umount -f /dev/sdb1
[03:40] <wero> #ubuntu-es
[03:40] <aeon-ltd> is it possible to play drm'd m4v on linux?
[03:41] <bandit5432> tash, if that does not work run sudo  fuser -mu /dev/sdb1
[03:41] <dr_willis> aeon-ltd:  my experience... no.
[03:42] <bandit5432> where did tash  go?
[03:42] <urlin2u> Fryne, you might ask a ##windows if you think you can spell it.
[03:43] <javier_> bandit5432, ey, I did it and it seems it works much better. I would have to try it longer and see if it really changed, but it seems better :) So, thanks!
[03:43] <bandit5432> urlin2u, u is soo funnies
[03:43] <bandit5432> javier_, no problem
[03:44] <javier_> bandit5432,  :)
[03:44] <javier_> have a nice day
[03:44] <tash> here guys, sorry
[03:44] <tash> was trying something else, reading your thoughts now
[03:44] <bandit5432> javier_, you to
[03:45] <tatsuhoshi> server irc.sorcery.net
[03:45] <tash> success! ( I think )
[03:46] <tash> not with your last suggestion bandit5432...I found an article I was trying first
[03:46] <tash> stay posted
[03:46] <tash> ...
[03:46] <tash> i mean, stay tuned
[03:46] <KillaByte> Is there a way to run a disk check on ubuntu(I have a hard disk drive connected to my computer via usb w windows partion)
[03:47] <bandit5432> KillaByte, if its ntfs not really
[03:47] <KillaByte> only way would be through virtualmachine?
[03:47] <dr_willis> you mean check a ntfs filesystem KillaByte ?
[03:47] <KillaByte> yes
[03:48] <bandit5432> KillaByte, you can boot to a windows rescue system and check it
[03:48] <KillaByte> checking for errors after crash
[03:48] <dr_willis> there are windows rescue/recovery iso's
[03:48] <dr_willis> that could do it
[03:48] <bandit5432> KillaByte, what vesrion of windows?
[03:48] <bandit5432> version'
[03:48] <KillaByte> 7
[03:49] <KillaByte> do you  have a url for the rescue disk?
[03:50] <bandit5432> KillaByte, looking right noe
[03:50] <bandit5432> now
[03:52] <bandit5432> stupid neowin version is not free any more
[03:52] <bandit5432> KillaByte, is this on an external drive?
[03:52] <REK_007> any cross platform LAN chat utility there ?
[03:52] <REK_007> LAN chat among different subnets
[03:53] <KillaByte> no..hdd from desktop
[03:53] <bandit5432> KillaByte,  do you have a windows 7  disk?
[03:54] <tash> finally got it
[03:54] <KillaByte> no..and i cant get to  the recovery or safe mode
[03:54] <tash> reference = http://etienneg.wordpress.com/2009/09/15/dev-is-apparently-in-use-by-the-system-will-not-make-a-filesystem-here/
[03:54] <erpo> I'm running Ubuntu 11.10 AMD64 on a laptop with a nvidia graphics chip and the "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version current) [Recommended]" driver installed and in use. The user interface is very, very slow. Sometimes I see lag when I drag windows around. My cursor moves, but the window lags behind it. Scrolling in firefox is extremely choppy (like 1 update per second). Any ideas?
[03:55] <erpo> Actually, right now, I'm getting three or four updates per second while scrolling in firefox. Sometimes it gets so bad that it takes more than a second to update the page.
[03:55] <bandit5432> KillaByte, you can try hirens http://www.hirensbootcd.org/download/
[03:55] <KillaByte> thanks bandit
[03:56] <bandit5432> KillaByte, no problem i didnt know that the neosmart rescue disk is not free now
[03:57] <erpo> I find the ubuntu install cd makes a fine rescue disc.
[03:57] <bandit5432> erpo, yes but i dont think it will check a ntfs disk for errors
[03:59] <KillaByte> How much difference is xubuntu than ubuntu?Is the software for ubuntu available for xubuntu?
[03:59] <EvilResistance> KillaByte:  available?  yes.  Neatly integrates?  no.
[04:00] <erpo> bandit5432: Perhaps not.
[04:00] <bandit5432> erpo, i hope in the future that the ntfs support will be there wouldnt that be great
[04:01] <KillaByte> the only thing i miss from windows is the fps game A.V.A
[04:01] <erpo> bandit5432: I suppose. You may want to hook it up to the Internet and apt-get install ntfsprogs. Then you can use ntfsfix, which may be useful to you.
[04:02] <bandit5432> erpo, might work
[04:02] <bandit5432> KillaByte, what are you trying to get to work with the crashed drive?
[04:04] <KillaByte> I have a windows xp (pira**d) version i am going to install but wanted to clean it up some
[04:04] <enchilado> O_O
[04:04] <tonyyarusso> KillaByte: Piracy is not allowed on this network, FYI.
[04:05] <KillaByte> i never said such a thing
[04:05] <KillaByte> fyi
[04:05] <erpo> :/
[04:06] <tonyyarusso> KillaByte: You just said you have pirated Windows XP.
[04:06] <bandit5432> you can get a xp cd key off of computers in the trash and then install with a real xp cd
[04:06] <KillaByte> is it on this network ..no
[04:06] <bandit5432> lol
[04:06] <tonyyarusso> KillaByte: You're speaking about it on this network - that's what I meant.
[04:06] <aeon-ltd> yes.
[04:06] <bandit5432> i have a ripped dvd some where in my house
[04:07] <KillaByte> :0
[04:07] <KillaByte> lol
[04:07] <bandit5432> serious question i cant get kernel 3.1 to boot
[04:07] <bandit5432> 2nd night here and i no one will help me
[04:08] <bjrohan> Hello everyone
[04:08] <bandit5432> bjrohan, hello
[04:08] <tonyyarusso> bandit5432: Well, currently 3.1 does not exist in any supported version of Ubuntu, so it's pretty reasonable that nobody here can support it, frankly.
[04:08] <c0ldz3r0> ls
[04:08] <bandit5432> tonyyarusso, didnt ask for suport asked for help people on here are using it
[04:08] <KillaByte> i took a pen from the doctors office :(
[04:09] <bandit5432> KillaByte, what ever you do dont watch youtube videos
[04:09] <pangolin> bandit5432: it is not being used by any Ubuntu version currently so it is not supported.
[04:09] <bandit5432> tonyyarusso, nvm looks like its a nvidia driver issue
[04:09] <KillaByte> why not???:)
[04:10] <bandit5432> is there a ubuntu hackers room that i can ask?
[04:10] <bjrohan> I am new to Linux and Ubuntu. I am running 11.10. I am having some difficulties. I have Windows Vista on my laptop, on which I then partitioned in Windows, and install Ubuntu, my problem is that in file manager I can acces the windows partition automatically (shows as 208GB) and mounts under media.
[04:11] <bjrohan> When I do an fstab, I only show my Linux partitions. I would like to have Ubuntu mount my windows partition on startup. How can I do this when fstab doesn't see it?
[04:11] <tonyyarusso> bandit5432: Not really.  It's generally understood that if you want to run bleeding-edge unsupported software you have to be able to support yourself.
[04:11] <stow> Hi does anyone know when a more reliable upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04 will be made available?
[04:11] <bandit5432> tonyyarusso, sorry i thought this was help not support
[04:11] <Guest39700> In ubuntu, the unity when you click the top icon that brings up where you can type an application you want to launch. That transparent box that comes up, it comes up full screen. Is there a way to change it so it doesnt take up the whole screen? like the box is smaller.
[04:11] <aeon-ltd> stow: when 12.04 comes out???
[04:12] <tonyyarusso> bandit5432: um, same thing...
[04:12] <urlin2u> bjrohan, is that a wubi install?
[04:12] <stow> Oh sorry I thought it was already out
[04:12] <bjrohan> urlin2u, what is wubi?
[04:12] <stow> so when is 12.04 coming out?
[04:12] <KillaByte> you own the room tony???
[04:12] <aeon-ltd> stow: 12.04 4th month 2012
[04:12] <tonyyarusso> stow: The version numbers tell you the release date.  12.04 releases in April, 2012.
[04:12] <urlin2u> bjrohan, installed from windows.
[04:13] <bjrohan> urlin2u, I installed Ubuntu from an Ubuntu CD I burned
[04:13] <bandit5432> wow i thought this was a linux room
[04:13] <bjrohan> I put the ubuntu CD in and booted from it
[04:13] <urlin2u> bjrohan, you booted the cd right?
[04:13] <bjrohan> urlin2u yes
[04:13] <Guest39700> tonyyarusso, why did I just find a 12.04 Daily build of ubuntu then??
[04:13] <stow> so 11.10 has come out... thought I already had how do I check?
[04:13] <KillaByte> must have missed the rules  on the way in
[04:13] <Guest39700> stow, Whilst I would advise against installing it just yet, daily builds of Ubuntu 12.04 (currently pre-pre-alpha) are available for download.
[04:14] <tonyyarusso> bjrohan: fstab doesn't "see" anything - it's just a text file.  You would need to edit the file to include lines for the Windows partition.
[04:14] <pangolin> bandit5432: try ##linux maybe they can help
[04:14] <_Neytiri_> i  have a problem, my clock dissapered from my bar and i cant put it back
[04:14] <tonyyarusso> Guest39700: Because Ubuntu has an open development process, so you can participate in developing and testing everything before it gets released.
[04:14] <stow> yes I saw those and backed off from it because I don't have the skill.  Is there a way to see if I have 11.10 now?  I thought I did but maybe I don't?
[04:14] <bandit5432> pangolin, ty i guess
[04:15] <KillaByte> ##tonysux ass
[04:15] <bandit5432> sigh
[04:15] <carlosqueso> stow: easiest way is to open a terminal and type lsb_release -a
[04:15] <stow> thanks
[04:15] <Guest39700> stow: bring up system monitor, and go to the system tab is another way
[04:16] <admiralshlorky> or system > about ubuntu
[04:16] <bjrohan> IC. I just installed Storage Device Manager, which could see sda1, but had no info for it, but asked if I wanted to configure it, which I did, and it shows as being in /media
[04:16] <bjrohan> Is it normal to have another partition mount in /media?
[04:16] <admiralshlorky>  /media is the file path
[04:16] <admiralshlorky>  /dev/sdwhatever is the actual mount point
[04:16] <carlosqueso> neat! I learn new things every day in here
[04:17] <tonyyarusso> admiralshlorky: No, /dev/sdwhatever is the device.  /media/whatever is a mount point.
[04:17] <admiralshlorky> oh, disregard that then
[04:17] <bjrohan> IC. How would I go about getting that partition to mount at boot-up? As of right now, I can only get it to mount when I onen File Manager and click on the 208GB link
[04:18] <stow> terminal command didn't work maybe because I am running gnome3 desktop?
[04:18] <urlin2u> bjrohan, your description as having to access windows from media threw me off it is in the left panel of home. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab
[04:18] <tonyyarusso> stow: Commands have nothing to do with your desktop.  What did you try?
[04:19] <stow> ok second method worked I have 11.10 already
[04:20] <Guest39700> alright im taking the plunge trying out 12.04, just fresh installed today so if it breaks no biggy 20 mins and back to fresh install wish me luck lol
[04:20] <admiralshlorky> gl
[04:21] <led-bandit> have fun Guest39700
[04:21] <bjrohan> urlin2u, thank you. One more item. I also havve Ubuntu running on another desktop in my home. Both computers connect to the internet via a wireless router connected to a router. I have set up Samba, and can access the other computer, however connected to that computer is a 1TB USB drive, that I can recognize via my laptop, but can not access, any ideas why?
[04:21] <urlin2u> bjrohan, I don't sorry.
[04:21] <bjrohan> I also havve Ubuntu running on another desktop in my home. Both computers connect to the internet via a wireless router connected to a router. I have set up Samba, and can access the other computer, however connected to that computer is a 1TB USB drive, that I can recognize via my laptop, but can not access, any ideas why?
[04:22] <bjrohan> Do I need to put this drive in fstab as well on that desktop?
[04:23] <led-bandit> bjrohan, for samaba see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Samba/SambaServerGuide  especialy the part about sudo  smbpasswd -a username
[04:23] <urlin2u> bjrohan, fstab only woks for mounting on the OS it is in, your description at least to me was convoluted as to what you want to do.
[04:23] <led-bandit> bjrohan, what do you need help with?
[04:23] <urlin2u> bjrohan, I'm really tired though. :D
[04:24] <bjrohan> I have samba setup, I can access the main drive and its files on the desktop from my laptop, with the exception of the USB drive, which is mounted on the desktop system also in the /media dir
[04:25] <alien64> unity really epic fail
[04:25] <bjrohan> I will read up on fstab and see if that will help. Thank you urlin2u
[04:26] <alien64> how hard is it to go back to gnome from unity?
[04:26] <somsip> !nounity | alien64
[04:27] <atruno> nvidia quadro with latest quadro xserver driver does not playback many video types for me.  either in smplayer or vlc.  its a might higher version of nvidia driver than 173.  also when i lightdm starts unity in oneiric half of the time, usually the first time, it fails to draw windows borders.  when it doesn't redraw windows borders it also doesn't give me the launchbar on the left.  my biggest problem of these all is i need video playba
[04:27] <atruno> ck.  its a quadro fx1400 so it shouldn't be horrible.
[04:27] <urlin2u> alien64, you mean gnome 2?
[04:28] <atruno> i have all non-free codecs loaded.
[04:28] <alien64> urlin2u: i just wont unity to go bye bye its got to be the worst ui i have ever seen..
[04:28] <atruno> i'm not sure how to fix the border either
[04:29] <led-bandit> alien64, you can try gnome 3 fallback
[04:31] <mzuverink> what happened to applets in classic gnome? it seems to have none in the current version
[04:31] <urlin2u> alien64, you have many choices the fallback a similar the gnome2 desktop or gnome 3 or xubuntu kubuntu or lubuntu amongst others, actually removing unity is not needd or advised just install another and at the login choose it.
[04:32] <robin0800> mzuverink, alt and right click
[04:32] <mzuverink> robin0800, thank you
[04:33] <robin0800> mzuverink, or super + alt and right click if compiz is running
[04:36] <mzuverink> robin0800, thank you, very helpful
[04:36] <_Neytiri_> i  have a problem, my clock dissapered from my bar and i cant put it back, anyone know how i can fix this?
[04:37] <alien64> k thanks
[04:38] <pachl> is RCS included in base?
[04:39] <lemon-tea> hai
[04:39] <woozly> string: "{One|Two|Four} apples was in {hand of {Robin|Jess|Lily} right now | her hand.}" and I need to match all content between {} symbols...
[04:39] <AndroUser> I have a question about a hung install, can I just blurt it out or is there some sort of formal way to ask?
[04:39] <woozly> match[1] = {One|Two|Four}, match[2] = {hand of {Robin|Jess|Lily} right now | her hand.}
[04:40] <woozly> but I've got trouble with { { } }
[04:40] <lemon-tea> 有人么？
[04:40] <woozly> guys, please help
[04:41] <carlosqueso> AndroUser: ask away...if anyone knows the answer, they'll be happy to help
[04:43] <phlak_user> AndroUser: blurt it out formally
[04:43] <AndroUser> Err..i just ran the upgrade from .04 to .10 and everything seemed to go alright. But after the restart, im hung at the ubuntu screen with 5 dots
[04:43] <pachl> Can someone run `which rcs` and tell me if RCS is on your system?
[04:44] <phlak_user> pachl: what's RCS
[04:44]  * phlak_user revision control system
[04:44] <pachl> phlak_user: a really old revision control system
[04:45] <rabbi1> unable to switch to my other workspaces :(
[04:45] <rabbi1> any suggestion ?
[04:45] <carlosqueso> pachl: it's in universe, but not installed by default
[04:45] <phlak_user> pachl: cool; so its not installed by default
[04:46] <phlak_user> !info rcs
[04:46] <pachl> I think RCS is standard on all UNIX-like OSes, but I only have access to OpenBSD and Mac OSX.
[04:46] <zorobabel> switching to KDE, hopefully everything will be okay
[04:46] <AndroUser> Any ideas on what I should do. I dont want to botch the install
[04:46] <pachl> carlosqueso: thanks
[04:46] <carlosqueso> no problem
[04:47] <pachl> ubottu: thanks for the details
[04:47] <phlak_user> AndroUser: do you have any special graphics hardware etc?
[04:48]  * pachl feels silly thanking a bot ;-)
[04:48] <AndroUser> I have an invidia card, pretty basic.
[04:48] <carlosqueso> pachl: of course, when the robots take over the world, they may spare you
[04:49] <phlak_user> AndroUser: you could try with nomodeset (though im not sure if thats the symptom)
[04:50] <phlak_user> !nomodeset | AndroUser
[04:50] <AndroUser> I should add that I'm running this on an asus laptop
[04:50] <ironfoot495> how do I change the resolution I can use my 42 inxh lcd screen on ubuntu 10.04 servr
[04:50] <ironfoot495> so I can use my 42 inch screen
[04:51] <phlak_user> ironfoot495: for the text? or do you have graphics
[04:51] <ironfoot495> and video
[04:51] <ironfoot495> I do have a GT520 video card.
[04:52] <AndroUser> Ok i'll try that out, thanks
[04:52] <ironfoot495> phlak_user
[04:52] <ironfoot495> ?
[04:52] <phlak_user> ironfoot495: what i meant was; do you also have a window manager on top of the text -console that is default on Server Installs
[04:53] <ironfoot495> I don't know can you help me find out?
[04:53] <ironfoot495> phlak_user:
[04:53] <[deXter]> Hi all, stellarium doesn't seem to be working on 11.10, so is supertux2
[04:54] <[deXter]> The 3D drivers are installed and working fine
[04:54] <phlak_user> ironfoot495: umm.. do you have only commandline or point-and-click
[04:54] <ironfoot495> I do have point AND CLICK!!!
[04:54] <Thelmaria> woozly: That's not really an ubuntu question. If you're using bash, you could try #bash, or whatever language you're trying to do it in.
[04:55] <phlak_user> ironfoot495: ok; so you have two outputs or do you want your primary output to go to the 42" monitor
[04:55] <ironfoot495> YES!!!
[04:55] <leo2007> the 'restart to install updates' thingie is the stupidest thing ever heard.
[04:56] <ironfoot495> i HAD TO USE THE 19 INCH SCREEN TO GET THINGS GOING BUT i NEED TO RETURN TO MY 42 INCH SCREEN.
[04:56] <phlak_user> ironfoot495: ok no need to use caps
[04:56] <zorobabel> you have caps lock on
[04:57] <zorobabel> press button called 'caps lock' next to the 'A' key to turn off
[04:57] <zorobabel> kthx
[04:57] <ironfoot495> that was a mistake sorry

[04:58] <shivhack> hay everyone
[04:58] <shivhack> does anyone tested xdmx ?
[04:58] <ironfoot495> I replace the 19 inch for the 42 inch I lose the connection it will say not supported.
[04:59] <phlak_user> ironfoot495: did you replace when it was running? or did you restart it?
[05:00] <ironfoot495> I satarted it while it was running?
[05:00] <ironfoot495> started it.
[05:01] <ironfoot495> I looked for the xorg.conf ile but it is not there.
[05:01] <ironfoot495> I need all the help I can get!!!
[05:02] <ironfoot495> i've been down for ovr 2 months and my only computer was a agrevating slow xp unit!!!! urrrg

[05:03] <admiralshlorky> can you give the whole command
[05:04] <_Neytiri_> how do i get the date and time to show up on my menu bar again

[05:05] <admiralshlorky> woozly, the whole command that's giving you an issue, may i see it?
[05:06] <_Neytiri_> i got the option to add hte clock i selected it and hit add and nothing happined
[05:07] <led-bandit> _Neytiri_, wierd i can add multiple clocks
[05:07] <_Neytiri_> it wont let me, could it be related to my failed attempt at x11 fowarding?
[05:07] <led-bandit> _Neytiri_, that i dont know anything about
[05:08] <_Neytiri_> that seems to be around when it pccured
[05:08] <led-bandit> _Neytiri_, then i bet it is

[05:09] <led-bandit> undo what you changed
[05:10] <_Neytiri_> all i changed was 1 line in my sshd config
[05:10] <led-bandit> _Neytiri_, that should not have done it
[05:10] <alazare619> im stuck between emacs with gtk support or gtkvim for my editor of choice can anyone gimme some insight?
[05:10] <led-bandit> _Neytiri_, have you tried rebooting?
[05:10] <admiralshlorky> vim.
[05:10] <admiralshlorky> hands down
[05:10] <pitlimit> If I want to run a program every fifteen minutes, how can I do that
[05:10] <led-bandit> leafpad
[05:11] <admiralshlorky> but hey, i'm a vim whore
[05:11] <somsip> !cron | pitlimit
[05:11] <alazare619> vim is terminal already and included by default for most installs so all i should need is the gtk interface for visual vim right?
[05:11] <led-bandit> edit = mc
[05:11] <admiralshlorky> i don't see why you'd want visual vim
[05:11] <_Neytiri_>  not yet but i will give me a min
[05:12] <admiralshlorky> but i believe getting the gtk interface will do it for you
[05:16] <admiralshlorky> alazare619 did that work?
[05:16] <alazare619> trying it atm
[05:17] <admiralshlorky>  sudo apt-get install vim-gtk i believe
[05:17] <alazare619> i use aptitude
[05:17] <alazare619> and yes its aptitude install vim-gtk
[05:17] <alazare619> but it didnt add it to start menu odd
[05:17] <alazare619> hmm
[05:17] <alazare619> looks like broken dependent
[05:17] <admiralshlorky> alt f2
[05:17] <alazare619> tried vim-gtk
[05:18] <alazare619> missing it says
[05:18] <somsip> alazare619: gvim ?
[05:21] <zetheroo> in 11.10 my laptop is running really hot
[05:22] <zetheroo> the nvidia GPU is around 70 - 80C and when under load goes over 90C
[05:23] <jasonmchristos> zetheroo: no it depends on the environment
[05:23] <arunkumar413> hi, i installed 11.10 inside windows by selecting the installation size as 10 GB. Now i want to increase the installation size. Plz help me
[05:23] <zetheroo> jasonmchristos:  ??
[05:24] <zetheroo> right now I have only Thunderbird and Pidgin running and the GPU is 78C
[05:24] <jasonmchristos> zetheroo: does nvidia support linux ?
[05:24] <arunkumar413> hi, i installed 11.10 inside windows by selecting the installation size as 10 GB. Now i want to increase the installation size. Plz help me
[05:25] <zetheroo> jasonmchristos: what's your point?
[05:25] <jasonmchristos> zetheroo: What driver are you using ?
[05:25] <bugweed_> hi, anyone here have experience with sourceforge. i had uploaded a work of linux, and now the link says, no mirror. what that indicates???
[05:26] <jasonmchristos> bugweed_: only experience ive had was they werent forwarding my donations
[05:26] <jasonmchristos> bugweed_: they were just keeping them
[05:27] <zetheroo> jasonmchristos: i tried the recommended one ... and then switched to version current-updates
[05:27] <jasonmchristos> zetheroo: nvidia is a very proprietary company, get the real drivers or else use vesa
[05:27] <jasonmchristos> using the wrong drivers can damage the unit
[05:27] <bugweed_> jasonmchristos: so then, where would you suggest me to upload my file, it is a large one. 1.3gb??? and im using rsync. not very please by their service by the way
[05:27] <zetheroo> does anyone know a way to control the fan speed in 11.10?
[05:28] <jasonmchristos> bugweed_: get a vps
[05:28] <bugweed_> jasonmchristos: what's a VPS?
[05:28] <jasonmchristos> zetheroo: searth the repositories for fan speed utilities
[05:28] <zetheroo> jasonmchristos: well it was not this hot with 10.04 ... and I was using the drivers which came with Ubuntu ...
[05:29] <jasonmchristos> bugweed_: a server that you can run all on your own
[05:29] <jasonmchristos> bugweed_: amazon also offers cloud
[05:29] <jasonmchristos> ubuntu does also
[05:29] <jasonmchristos> to get 1.3 gb of space
[05:30] <jasonmchristos> zetheroo: then check what drivers 10.04 was using
[05:30] <bugweed_> jasonchristos: but that will cause money.. right?? i am on a non-funded basis yet
[05:31] <jasonmchristos> bugweed_: well save your lunch money
[05:31] <jasonmchristos> no one offers that size for free
[05:31] <jeff__> I am on 12.04 now
[05:31] <jasonmchristos> i think ubuntu cloud gives some for free
[05:31] <jasonmchristos> check the size
[05:32] <bugweed_> jasonmchristos : minus.com gives btw. 10gb. i should have put my file there. the only prob is, they don't support rsync or resume function
[05:32] <Mryotesoe> arunkumar413:  check ur question at in there > http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1585756
[05:32] <arunkumar413> hi, i installed 11.10 inside windows by selecting the installation size as 10 GB. Now i want to increase the installation size. Plz help me
[05:32] <jasonmchristos> rsync your going to need a vps
[05:33] <jasonmchristos> or check amazon
[05:33] <jasonmchristos> they have so much for free
[05:33] <jasonmchristos> i dont think its enoigh
[05:33] <bjrohan> Question. I install Storage Device Manager on my desktop running Ubuntu 11.10, the program starts, asks for my password, once I enter that, I can see the icon and a settings icon in Unity Launcher, which then proceed to disapper and Storage Device Manager fails to load
[05:34] <jeff__> arunkumar413, http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/how-increase-partition-size-in-ubuntu
[05:34] <jasonmchristos> bjrohan: run it from cli and look at any debug output
[05:34] <jasonmchristos> or check dmesg
[05:35] <bjrohan> jasonmchritos - I am very new to Ubuntu, what does that mean?
[05:36] <jasonmchristos> bjrohan: open a terminal from the acessories menu
[05:36] <jasonmchristos> type it in by hand and errors will show in the terminal
[05:36] <jasonmchristos> also type dmesg to get system logs from terminal
[05:37] <jasonmchristos> some errors show there
[05:37] <bjrohan> jasonmchritos type in "Storage Device Manager"
[05:38] <jasonmchristos> zetheroo: nvidia isnt open at all with thier drivers
[05:38] <jasonmchristos> zetheroo: if there were a proper driver you would have to ask nvidia directly otherwise i wouldnt bother
[05:38] <jasonmchristos> zetheroo: better cut the power before you fry the silicon transistors
[05:39] <zetheroo> jasonmchristos: be that as it may, it seems that it's only been a real issue in 11.10 - possibly something to do with Unity!?
[05:39] <jasonmchristos> zetheroo: unless unity uses something other than xwindows
[05:39] <jasonmchristos> zetheroo: does it?
[05:39] <jasonmchristos> almost everything runs on xserver
[05:40] <zetheroo> jasonmchristos: I thought it still ran on xserver
[05:40] <jasonmchristos> then shouldnt have anything to do with unity
[05:40] <jasonmchristos> prob a driver
[05:40] <jasonmchristos> usually a kernel module
[05:40] <jasonmchristos> report your findings if you want to see it fixed
[05:41] <jasonmchristos> we are all doing free beta testing here
[05:41] <jasonmchristos> send in reports
[05:41] <jasonmchristos> moar reports!
[05:41] <jasonmchristos> zetheroo: if you wnt to figure it out yourself compare whats different side by side
[05:42] <jasonmchristos> the kernel might have a different module
[05:42] <jasonmchristos> 2.6 to 3.0
[05:42] <d3f4c3d> yo my ubuntu has 12nics but after reboot none are showing :( can you help please
[05:43] <d3f4c3d> well only one eth0 is showing, the one that i setup statically...
[05:43] <jasonmchristos> d3f4c3d: lspci
[05:44] <d3f4c3d> shows all 12 nic hardwar
[05:44] <jasonmchristos> ok good deal
[05:44] <jasonmchristos> use ifup
[05:44] <d3f4c3d> 4 adaptec nics and 1 dlink
[05:44] <jasonmchristos> thats only 5
[05:44] <jasonmchristos> you said 12
[05:44] <d3f4c3d> they quadro nics
[05:44] <d3f4c3d> sry
[05:44] <dios_mio> how can i test my harddisk for errors on an ubuntu live cd?
[05:45] <d3f4c3d> so 12 ports
[05:45] <jasonmchristos> configure them all statically then bring up the interface
[05:45] <d3f4c3d> the thing is im trying to avoid giving them statics
[05:45] <jasonmchristos> d3f4c3d: quadro nics or hub card ?
[05:45] <d3f4c3d> quad nics
[05:45] <jasonmchristos> then set them for dhcp
[05:45] <d3f4c3d> im using them with dynamips
[05:45] <d3f4c3d> i rather prefer not set up ip on them... but if theres no other way oh well
[05:45] <jasonmchristos> i think dhcp is the default
[05:46] <jasonmchristos> just bring them up
[05:46] <jasonmchristos> what does ifconfig show?
[05:46] <d3f4c3d> i remember it worked before and my network/interfaces file was minimal, only had eth0 statically assigend in them
[05:46] <d3f4c3d> all cards showing
[05:46] <jasonmchristos> just bring them up
[05:47] <d3f4c3d> my tap0 dissaperead though
[05:47] <d3f4c3d> they all up i think
[05:47] <d3f4c3d> no ip like i wanted
[05:47] <d3f4c3d> how can i keep them come up after restart
[05:47] <jasonmchristos> d3f4c3d: maybe its because of the tap
[05:47] <jasonmchristos> thats beyond ubuntu scope
[05:47] <d3f4c3d> naa dont thinkso
[05:47] <jasonmchristos> try networking help
[05:47] <d3f4c3d> hehe okay
[05:47] <d3f4c3d> thank :)
[05:48] <jasonmchristos> d3f4c3d: so what do you do with all those if's ?
[05:48] <d3f4c3d> emulating routers
[05:48] <d3f4c3d> im ordering 8 more :)
[05:48] <jasonmchristos> stand behind it like a switchboard operator ?
[05:49] <d3f4c3d> this is for my study
[05:49] <d3f4c3d> networking stuff
[05:49] <jasonmchristos> how may i connect your line, sir ?
[05:50] <d3f4c3d> what does auto eth1 in /network/interfaces mean ?
[05:50] <jasonmchristos> d3f4c3d: the server documentation has networking details
[05:51] <d3f4c3d> im reading man on interfaces now
[05:51] <d3f4c3d> zzzZZzzzZZzzzz
[05:51] <soreau> Hey guys, I have a directory full of odt files (for libreoffice) and trying to find a way to search for a string in them similar to grep -R. Any ideas?
[05:51] <jasonmchristos> d3f4c3d: auto means its going to bring itself up on signal usually defaulted to dhcp
[05:51] <d3f4c3d> jasonmchristos, odd is i have auto eth1 throgh eth12
[05:52] <jasonmchristos> soreau: wghat ?
[05:52] <d3f4c3d> and yet they not coming up automatically after restart
[05:52] <shivhack> zetheero: what's your hardware config ?
[05:52] <jasonmchristos> d3f4c3d: check the drivers, did you upgrade or something ?
[05:53] <jasonmchristos> d3f4c3d: always keep a list of drivers and settings of the working config before upgrading
[05:53] <d3f4c3d> hmm this is what i have in my /etc/network/if-up.d/
[05:53] <d3f4c3d> ntpdate         openssh-server  uml-utilities   upstart         wpasupplicant
[05:53] <soreau> jasonmchristos: For instance if you have a folder containing ascii text files, you can use 'grep -R "string" /path/to/directory' to search through all the files for "string". With odt files, this does not work so I'm trying to find another way
[05:53] <d3f4c3d> jasonmchristos, i wonder if i can add something there...
[05:54] <jasonmchristos> soreau: i think its because its not txt
[05:54] <shivhack> d3f4c3d: they appear in "ifconfig -a" ?
[05:54] <d3f4c3d> ye
[05:54] <jasonmchristos> soreau: convert all to txt
[05:54] <shivhack> d3f4c3d: the eth1-12 ?
[05:54] <d3f4c3d> i can manually bring them all up - but after reboot they not up
[05:54] <soreau> jasonmchristos: Do you have an easy way to convert odt to text ?
[05:54] <shivhack> ok
[05:54] <d3f4c3d> shivhack, correct
[05:55] <shivhack> d3f4c3d : wait
[05:55] <d3f4c3d> shivhack, :D patiently
[05:55] <jasonmchristos> soreau: check the repos or else write a macro o i forgot theres no macro for linux
[05:55] <d3f4c3d> u guys roxorz btw
[05:55]  * Naenyn sits on soreau 
[05:55] <d3f4c3d> #bash is great for shell cript stuff
[05:56] <d3f4c3d> what can i take for my vision
[05:56] <jasonmchristos> d3f4c3d: make sure the cable is plugged and ther dhcp server is on
[05:56] <shivhack> d3f4c3d: auto eth0 is to bring interfaces automaticallly, so they appear on 'ifconfig -a'
[05:56] <soreau> Naenyn: Knock it off. I can't type like this
[05:56] <tonyyarusso> !info odt2txt | soreau
[05:56] <soreau> jasonmchristos: Indeed there is odt2txt in repos
[05:57] <Naenyn> =]
[05:57] <soreau> tonyyarusso: Yea already found and installed it thanks :)
[05:57] <d3f4c3d> shivhack, my goal is somehow get all 12 eth interfaces to come up on boot in ubnuntu
[05:57] <tonyyarusso> bah, too slow
[05:57] <shivhack> d3f4c3d: all you have to do is repeate the sequence 'auto ethX', next line 'iface ethX inet dhcp' ...
[05:57] <shivhack> d3f4c3d: then hit 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart'
[05:57] <d3f4c3d> can i avoid getting them to dhcp somehow
[05:57] <shivhack> d3f4c3d: gve it a shot and tell me
[05:57] <d3f4c3d> i really rather not assign them ip ...
[05:58] <shivhack> d3f4c3d: PS the ethX refers to eth1 to eth12
[05:58] <shivhack> yep
[05:58] <d3f4c3d> i already have auto setup for eth1-12
[05:58] <d3f4c3d> but im missing something...since they still hiding from me on boot
[05:59] <jasonmchristos> soreau: looks good , there it is!
[05:59] <d3f4c3d> could second line look like : ifface ethX inet
[05:59] <d3f4c3d> with no dhcp on the end ?
[06:00] <shivhack> d3f4c3d: put this lines for each interface 'iface ethX inet static', 'address 192.168.3.90', 'gateway 192.168.3.1', 'netmask 255.255.255.0', 'network 192.168.3.0', 'broadcast 192.168.3.255'
[06:00] <d3f4c3d> shivhack, thanks but is there hack/solution NOT to use ip on these interfacaces ?
[06:01] <d3f4c3d> i think on 11.4 it worked
[06:01] <jasonmchristos> if you dont use ip
[06:01] <d3f4c3d> but i had to downgrade to 9.10 for 802.1q stuff to work
[06:01] <jasonmchristos> what do you want
[06:01] <shivhack> d3f4c3d: can i ask what's your precise need ?
[06:01] <jasonmchristos> plug it in and the light comes on
[06:01] <d3f4c3d> i dont want to use ip
[06:01] <d3f4c3d> i want them on but no ip assigned
[06:01] <jasonmchristos> yeah you ansetup alternative protocals
[06:01] <d3f4c3d> and i want to view them in ifconfig
[06:01] <atruno> i am unable to move my unity icons to different positions on my launcher.  i  have unity --reset and unity --reset-icons.  i have the basic icons but i am unable to move them around.  assistance appreciated.
[06:01] <jasonmchristos> they should be on when you plug it in
[06:02] <jasonmchristos> check the lights
[06:02] <d3f4c3d> they are on
[06:02] <d3f4c3d> but not visible on ifconfig
[06:02] <d3f4c3d> only ifconfig -a
[06:02] <jasonmchristos> well then take a moment to write a complete sentance of what you want
[06:02] <d3f4c3d> let me crawl around for few minutes
[06:02] <jasonmchristos> lol
[06:03] <jasonmchristos> if they are visible on ifconfig -a they are ready
[06:05] <jasonmchristos> they are on already
[06:05] <jasonmchristos> if the lights on the cards on
[06:05] <jasonmchristos> they get a hardware link without any ubuntu
[06:05] <jasonmchristos> no ip
[06:06] <jasonmchristos> hardware layer
[06:06] <jasonmchristos> osi model
[06:06] <jasonmchristos> unless the card is designed to wait for a command to link
[06:06] <gaussy> #list
[06:06] <atruno> i am unable to move my unity icons to different positions on my launcher.  i  have unity --reset and unity --reset-icons.  i have the basic icons but i am unable to move them around.  assistance appreciated.
[06:06] <shivhack> d3f4c3d: do you know brctl ?
[06:08] <jasonmchristos> d3f4c3d: you need to strip out the gnome network manager
[06:08] <jasonmchristos> d3f4c3d: they dont play well together with the cli network tools
[06:09] <Thelmaria> !repeat | atruno
[06:09] <atruno> i waited about 10 minutes.
[06:10] <jasonmchristos> i dont have unity
[06:10] <jasonmchristos> cant help you
[06:10] <rdssoni> u can download it anytime
[06:11] <jasonmchristos> gnome 2 works for now
[06:11] <jasonmchristos> all i do is come on irc
[06:11] <jasonmchristos> and stream radio
[06:12] <jasonmchristos> ubuntu would be great behind a firewalled environment and loaded from some image on boot
[06:13] <jasonmchristos> but as a standalone desktop its vulnerable
[06:13] <phlak_user> atruno: just click and drag the icons to re-order them on Unity launcher
[06:13] <atruno> phlak_user, that used to work, its no longer working for me.  broken.
[06:14] <phlak_user> atruno: what happens when you do that?
[06:14] <atruno> it will not allow me to move the icon right to up or up and down.
[06:15] <phlak_user> atruno: you mean it moves with the mouse and when you release the key, it comes back to original position?
[06:15] <atruno> phlak_user, it doesn't move at all
[06:15] <admiralshlorky> Protip: remove unity and get gnome desktop

If you remove the PC from the network cable, then everything goes into winbind offline mode and everything works fine. But! If the power cord vstevlen (net present), and the PDC is unavailable, then I can not log in to your PC. Long boot. It seems that winbind does not understand that the host is not a
[06:27] <master-lie> vailable, that would go into offline. Just spent the following experiment: during work (everything is OK!) Turned off the network on the PDC, switched to tty1 and tried to login. Introduced a login / pass. Waited. "Login timed out after 60 seconds". Help. My options are available at: http://paste.ubuntu.com/731744/
[06:28] <phlak_user> dijonyummy: if-up or if-down scripts are triggered

[07:07] <Trond--> How can I install Windows drivers for DWA-140 for Ubuntu to make internet go faster? It goes 3-4x faster in Windows than in Ubuntu because of the faul drivers.

[07:08] <locodir-user> HOw could install drivers for my penpower junior chinese handwriters?
[07:09] <locodir-user> I got them in a CD for windows but coiuld not use it under ubuntu
[07:11] <rumpe1> locodir-user, because they are drivers for windows, not for linux.
[07:11] <locodir-user> so I can not use them?
[07:12] <rumpe1> locodir-user, not directly. You could use windows in a virtual-machine to use the device while running linux... maybe.
[07:12] <locodir-user> is there anyway to adapt them for linux/
[07:13] <locodir-user> I am new! I don't know how to move about
[07:13] <rumpe1> locodir-user, of maybe somewhere in the depths of the internet there is already a linux driver, who knows? :)
[07:14] <locodir-user> no I don't
[07:15] <locodir-user> can u help please

[07:17] <rumpe1> locodir-user, as i said: I recommend a virtual machine setup. Or just install linux and windows as a dualboot setup and use windows for the device. You can't use the device in linux, if there is no suitable linux driver.
[07:17] <qdb> restart logger? how
[07:17] <JZApples> What does the ~ at the end of a file mean?
[07:17] <lucid9> hi, i have a dvd with sevaral Ubuntu images and it is bootable, i want to remove the iso images and create a smaller iso file, i have extracted the iso file from the DVD using dd, how do i remove the iso images from it and repacks it?
[07:17] <lucid9> repack#
[07:18] <rumpe1> JZApples, usually nothing essential. Sometimes its used for "marking" files as temporary or backup.
[07:18] <JZApples> rumpe1, so delete it?
[07:18] <locodir-user> thank you! rumpel
[07:21] <locodir-user> quit
[07:21] <navatwo> Hi, I just installed ubuntu 11.10, but I can not seem to login from the main login screen. I can put in my password, but it pushes me back to the login screen. Any help is appreciated. I'm currently in a TTY
[07:21] <navatwo> locodir-user: /quit
[07:21] <navatwo> ;)
[07:22] <locodir-user> thank you!
[07:22] <navatwo> ... or close the tab >.<
[07:22] <navatwo> By the way, I have no access to GUI, so searching isn't exactly an option
[07:23] <phlak_user> dijonyummy: sorry, just saw this; how did you make the changes? did you create a new file?
[07:24] <phlak_user> navatwo: can you login from a text console? (ctl+alt+f1)
[07:24] <rumpe1> navatwo, well... the usual: you should check the logs, determine the problem and fix it. Or just install another desktop environment if you think you need one.
[07:24] <Jordan_U> navatwo: Have you tried the gnome fallback session or Unity 2D?
[07:24] <dijonyummy> no the file was there. i just added a line to it to test, such as killall chrome to see if it triggered
[07:24] <navatwo> Jordan_U: I can't get to either at the moment, and phlak_user I'm on a TTY using irssi
[07:25] <phlak_user> dijonyummy: are you on 11.10?
[07:25] <navatwo> how would I go about restarting GNOME?
[07:25] <dijonyummy> it has this in it... i dont know what it does... if [ -n "$IF_OPENVPN" ] then ... for vpn in $IF_OPENVPN; do $OPENVPN stop $vpn done fi
[07:25] <dijonyummy> yes on 11.10
[07:25] <phlak_user> navatwo: pressing alt+f7 should take you back to the graphics login
[07:25] <navatwo> phlak_user: yes, I know that. But there is nothing there but the desktop
[07:26] <navatwo> like the wallpaper.
[07:26] <navatwo> :/
[07:26] <phlak_user> dijonyummy: does it define the value of OPENVPN?
[07:26] <phlak_user> navatwo: you already have the desktop or the login screen?
[07:26] <navatwo> phlak_user: its an issue of lack of window kit.. lol
[07:26] <navatwo> *now
[07:26] <phlak_user> navatwo: did you do a normal install?
[07:27] <navatwo> The panel is gone
[07:27] <rumpe1> navatwo, so you can start gnome but you don't get the panel?
[07:27] <navatwo> and yes, phlak_user
[07:27] <dijonyummy> yes it does; and its there  /etc/init.d/openvpn
[07:27] <navatwo> rumpe1: I am unsure if gnome even started..
[07:27] <navatwo> I have a desktop background, and I can change the image.. but there is no window kit
[07:27] <phlak_user> dijonyummy: ok, i dont have openvpn installed hence not that script
[07:27] <navatwo> I guess I might as well restart the computer and see how it works
[07:27] <rumpe1> navatwo, gnome2 or gnome3?
[07:28] <phlak_user> dijonyummy: did you make the changes in the /etc/init.d script or /etc/network/if-up.d/openvpn script
[07:28] <dijonyummy> in the if-down.d script
[07:28] <navatwo> rumpe1: no idea, default
[07:28] <Jordan_U> rumpe1: navatwo is using Ubuntu 11.10, which means that GNOME2 is not available (though GNOME3's fallback session is similar).
[07:29] <phlak_user> dijonyummy: ok; heres a forum post that might help you achieve something similar -> http://forums.openvpn.net/topic7746.html
[07:30] <navatwo> what's the command to restart GNOME?
[07:30] <navatwo> :s
[07:30] <phlak_user> navatwo: are you able to logout of the current session and get back to the login screen (unity/lightdm greeter)
[07:30] <navatwo> phlak_user: no
[07:30] <navatwo> I think a hard reset is in order..
[07:30] <Jordan_U> !reisub | navatwo
[07:31] <navatwo> Jordan_U: lol, I can't open a web page..
[07:31] <phlak_user> navatwo: not necessary; just type sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm restart in the text console (or even sudo service lightdm restart)
[07:31] <navatwo> okay, wasn't sure what the display manager was
[07:31] <navatwo> I'm used to having compiz lol
[07:32] <phlak_user> !lightdm
[07:32] <Jordan_U> navatwo: You only need to read the link if you want a detailed explanation. The factoid itself has all you need.
[07:32] <navatwo> phlak_user: that did it.
[07:33] <navatwo> haha, that took a lot of asking :P but thank you, all.
[07:33] <navatwo> shame it did that on first boot :(
[07:33] <phlak_user> navatwo: cool
[07:34] <dijonyummy> i found a more generic way. when the vpn is connected there's a process /usr/sbin/openvpn --remote vpnhost.com etc.  i run a script that checks for that process every 2 seconds or so and then do what needed if its not in ps list
[07:34] <phlak_user> dijonyummy: ok
[07:42] <zorobabel> just installed KDE, so good
[07:44] <kfizz1> What's the command to start the monitor configuartion tool in ubuntu? I can't correct my display resolutions because there is no drop down menu in the top panel and the "unity" panel won't show up.
[07:44] <kfizz1> That is, how would I start it from a terminal.
[07:47] <phlak_user> kfizz1: press the Super (Win) key, you should get the dash search bar and type displays, and click on displays
[07:47] <kfizz1> phlak_user, thanks for trying to help, but that won't bring up the dash. Also, unity --replace won't correct it, either.
[07:48] <phlak_user> kfizz1: ok, type gnome-control-center in a gnome-terminal and select displays from there
[07:49] <kfizz1> That did it. Thanks!

[08:00] <phlak_user> atruno: no
[08:00] <admiralshlorky> it's possible if you added the feature yourself
[08:01] <admiralshlorky> thank god for open source software eh?
[08:05] <Evilkiss> Can somebody help me with sound problems in ubuntu 10.04?
[08:05] <admiralshlorky> i can try
[08:05] <admiralshlorky> what's the issue?
[08:06] <Evilkiss> admiralshlorky: i booted ubuntu, sound working, i can play banshee, but suddenly dissapear
[08:06] <Starminn> In Ubuntu 11.10, the Ubuntu Software center won't open
[08:07] <phlak_user> Starminn: how are you launching it?
[08:07] <bkerensa> Starminn: Did you just upgrade? Has it been like this always
[08:07] <admiralshlorky> check sound under system preferences
[08:07] <Squarism> Is there some command to repair a isntallation? or Redo it? My sun java installation has gone whack
[08:07] <admiralshlorky> and check hardware under that
[08:08] <bkerensa> Starminn: Can you run "software-center" from Terminal
[08:08] <Starminn> phlak_user, bkerensa It's been installed for about 3 weeks now and it started doing it about a week ago. I am launching it from the launcher
[08:08] <Evilkiss> i have installed pavucontrol, there "soundline" is moving, so sound is on... but nothing come through my receiver
[08:08] <Starminn> phlak_user, bkerensa Running from Terminal now, I'll paste the error message and link you two in a sec
[08:08] <phlak_user> Starminn: great
[08:09] <admiralshlorky> Evilkiss: Go to System > Preferences > Sound > Hardware
[08:09] <admiralshlorky> what do you see?
[08:09] <Starminn> phlak_user, bkerensa http://paste.ubuntu.com/731794/
[08:09] <Starminn> phlak_user, bkerensa Also, I just rebooted, thinking that may solve the problem. Alas, this is not so.
[08:10] <Evilkiss> admiralshlorky: there 3 device installed, 0821, easycall speakerphone, internal audio
[08:11] <bkerensa> Starminn: I suggest doing a reinstall by doing sudo apt-get remove software-center && sudo apt-get install software-center
[08:11] <admiralshlorky> ok, click internal audio and test speakers
[08:11] <admiralshlorky> any sound from that?
[08:11] <magic_hat> hi, everyone. I'm upgrading my distro from hardy to lucid, and have entered one of those dialog boxes (''What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are:  Y or I  : install the package maintainer's version') I chose to examine differences between the files, and am wondering how I escape that dialogue and return to the install.
[08:12] <admiralshlorky>  :q usually does the trick
[08:12] <magic_hat> dang, I shoulda known. I can never remember that.
[08:13] <jtr__> how to copy directories in ubuntu ? ( quick question )
[08:13] <slacker_HD> hello，anyone can tell me how to remove X and it's dependencies ?
[08:13] <Evilkiss> admiralshlorky: I can test speakers, because i use digital stereo duplex(iec958)
[08:13] <admiralshlorky>  cp <target directory> <destination> from the terminal
[08:13] <jtr__> admiralshlorky: says skipping directory 'target_dir'
[08:13] <Pici> jtr__: use -r
[08:13] <admiralshlorky> derp
[08:14] <admiralshlorky> yes, use -r
[08:14] <jtr__> thanks admiralshlorky Pici, you solved a mystery :)
[08:14] <Morgz> struggling with finding a flash files hardlink. lsof | grep -i flash finds nothing and switching to the /proc(chromium-pid)/fd directory doesn't find what I'm looking for. Is there some new trick?
[08:14] <admiralshlorky> Evilkiss, wait, you can test speakers?
[08:14] <Starminn> phlak_user, bkerensa Removed and installed it. Same error message from Terminal
[08:14] <bkerensa> hmm
[08:14] <Evilkiss> admiralshlorky: so there is no option to test speakers....
[08:15] <admiralshlorky> ooooooh
[08:15] <bkerensa> Starminn: Can you submit a bug on this
[08:15] <admiralshlorky> gotcha
[08:15] <bkerensa> Starminn: in Terminal do run > ubuntu-bug software-center
[08:15] <Starminn> bkerensa, Is that, "run > ubuntu-bug software-center" or "ubuntu-bug software-center"?
[08:16] <admiralshlorky> hrmmm, dunno then Evilkiss
[08:16] <Starminn> admiralshlorky, System Testing can test speakers, no?
[08:16] <andrew_> hey, my tool bar disappeared, how do i re-enable it?
[08:17] <Starminn> andrew_, Which toolbar? On windows, top toolbar, or the panel on the left? Details are our friends. :)
[08:17] <admiralshlorky> Starminn: Dunno about that, the only reason i even suggested anything is because for some reason my preferences changed my output once
[08:17] <admiralshlorky> and i lost audio and had a hell of a time trying to figure it out
[08:17] <admiralshlorky> until i checked the most blatantly obvious thing possible.
[08:17] <andrewlaptop> Starminn,  top and bottom toolbars
[08:17] <Evilkiss> admiralshlorky: so you can help me?
[08:17] <Starminn> admiralshlorky, He could play around with PulseAudio settings though, right? I believe ALSAMixer would be a good toll to play with?
[08:17] <bkerensa> Starminn: ubuntu-bug software-center
[08:18] <Flatlined> Evillkiss: try"speaker-test" in terminal
[08:18] <admiralshlorky> Evilkiss, i don't think so
[08:18] <admiralshlorky> ^
[08:18] <admiralshlorky> sounds like he knows what's up
[08:18] <Starminn> andrewlaptop, You are running a version older than Ubtunu 11.04 I assume? If so, just ALT+F2 then "killall gnome-panel && gnome-panel"
[08:18] <Evilkiss> admiralshlorky: :-(
[08:19] <admiralshlorky> sorry man D:
[08:19] <admiralshlorky> i wish i could
[08:19] <Starminn> bkerensa, It is done.
[08:19] <admiralshlorky> check out what flatlined said evilkiss
[08:19] <bkerensa> Starminn: Might take a day or two for someone to have a look
[08:19] <admiralshlorky> i'm not really too experienced with sound issues though i have had them in the past
[08:20] <Evilkiss> It's very strange problem, because than i restart ubuntu, so is back, but than I not use receiver some time, sound suddenly dissapear, but in pavucontrol the soundline is moving....very strange
[08:20] <Starminn> bkerensa, Fair enough. I mean, I can always 'apt-cache search' and 'apt-get' in the mean time. I've gone without it for some time now, a few more days won't hurt anything.
[08:20] <Starminn> bkerensa, Where does it submit to/where should I keep my eyes turned for action/questions/solutions?
[08:20] <admiralshlorky> i bet you probably just have the output device set wrong
[08:21] <bkerensa> Starminn: It will take you to launchpad
[08:21] <admiralshlorky> i just don't know how you would change that with the tools you're using
[08:23] <Evilkiss> admiralshlorky: How output device is set wrong, if i have sound then rebooted, but suddenly sound dissapear
[08:23] <admiralshlorky> no clue, i've had the output device change randomly on me before
[08:23] <admiralshlorky> that's why i suggested checking out the sound preferences
[08:24] <admiralshlorky> for me, it usually changes it to the HDMI out, despite the fact that i've never used my computer with an hdmi cable, much less own an hdmi cable
[08:24] <andrewlaptop> Starminn, doesn't seem to work, i tried the commands separately in term and it said I didn't have gnome panel installed, so i apt-get install'd it, and there seems to be no change.
[08:25] <Starminn> andrewlaptop, You are running something older than 11.04, right?
[08:26] <andrewlaptop> yeah, 10.4
[08:26] <Starminn> !resetpanel | andrewlaptop : (This will likely revert your panels to the default.)
[08:26] <andrewlaptop> I figured it out though, it was xfce4-panel
[08:27] <Starminn> andrewlaptop, Oh, lol. Well like I said. Details are our friend. :) You may want to remove gnome-panel now in that case since you said you installed it
[08:28] <andrewlaptop> yeah, thinking i will, thanks. Im just troubleshooting really quick myself (Andrew's cousin/tech support)
[08:28] <dr3mro> please help me fix this issue i can't lock my screen and here is my settings http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/4421/lockhi.jpg
[08:30] <Starminn> andrewlaptop, :) Well, when I used 10.10 (GNOME) the gnome-panel would go out on me every few weeks. Just "killall gnome-panel && gnome-panel" (or in your case xfce4-panel) fixed it. You could make a launcher for him called, "When-the-bars-hide" or something.
[08:30] <Starminn> andrewlaptop, Of course, finding the cause is great, but...if not... :) Just a suggestion
[08:31] <andrewlaptop> Starminn, yeah, thought I made a shortcut with the commands for him, but it appears to have been "misplaced"
[08:31] <Starminn> andrewlaptop, *facepalms* Heheheh.... Oh, cousins... ;)
[08:31] <andrewlaptop> also, not sure if there's a huge discrepency, but he's running xubuntu flavour.
[08:32] <Starminn> andrewlaptop, If you remember the file name(s) there's always "find -name *whatyouremember*"
[08:32] <Starminn> andrewlaptop, Also, Xubuntu support is in #xubuntu. (which is why I assumed GNOME panel)
[08:32] <Pici> andrewlaptop: -iname is case-insensitive too
[08:32] <andrewlaptop> *nods* Figured this channel would be a bit more lively, heard Xubuntu dev and maintenance hasn't been terribly active in a bit.
[08:34] <newgen> hi there. my grub-install has killed my mbr and i am now already 30 min late for a meeting. can anyone help me to reinstall it?

[08:38] <newgen> hm. like expected. grub-setup fails
[08:39] <Evilkiss> I have noticed strange problem then i switch sound to Internal Audio Analog Stereo duplex, i have sound through headphones, than i switch sound to easycall speakerphone, i have sound through usb headphones.

[08:39] <newgen> grup-probe : out of memory.... yeah
[08:39] <Evilkiss> but than i switch to internal audio digital stereo duplex, i have no sound at all in receiver
[08:39] <newgen> now my system is really messed up
[08:40] <conntrack> Been working on snort for days and it is still bummed

[08:45] <newgen> how do i load a kernel in grub shell?
[08:47] <newgen> come on. my upgrade from ubuntu 11.04 to 11.10 has already wrecked my system, but now the grub update killed my mbr. i am currently very very disappointed with the development of ubuntu. is there anyone left to reinstate my trust, to keep ubuntu using?
[08:50] <chroot> hi, how can i enter youtube and watch the vidieos in ubuntu
[08:50] <chroot> i just can't open the link to youtube

[08:53] <Starminn> newgen, I'll let somebody know.

[08:54] <newgen> furthermore, the site does not deal with linux default hd encryption.

[08:56] <ruby_on_tails> gr33n7007h: no file browser type of thing for easy usage ?
[08:56] <phlak_user> ruby_on_tails: or scp/ssh

[08:59] <chroot> Starminn,  it is some vidieos  from youtube
[08:59] <Starminn> chroot, Yes, but we need details.
[08:59] <Starminn> !details | chroot
[09:00] <chroot> ok, everytime, when i want  to see some vidieos , i open up google or firefox,  i can find the vidieo, but i can't open it ,
[09:01] <Starminn> So you can make it to the youtube page, but the video does not play, correct?
[09:01] <chroot> the firefox want me reload , but it didn't works
[09:01] <chroot> yes
[09:01] <chroot> oh, is it proxy problem
[09:01] <Starminn> chroot, There is a black box where the video should be?
[09:02] <Starminn> chroot, Let's see if this helps: http://www.youtube.com/html5 Choose to "opt-in"
[09:03] <ruby_on_tails> gr33n7007h: it will share my ubuntu host drive with the XP virtual box ? or the reverse ?
[09:03] <chroot> Starminn, i heared that youtube is forbidden in  china, is it right?
[09:03] <Starminn> chroot, You can always revisit that page and turn it off later. Sometimes what you're experiencing is a result of Flash being sucky. What you're "opting in" is for a non-flash experience
[09:03] <gr33n7007h> yes
[09:03] <Starminn> chroot, I don't know
[09:03] <chroot> ok , i will check it
[09:03] <ruby_on_tails> gr33n7007h: i get this Connection to Awakened failed (Error NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL)
[09:03] <airtonix> ruby_on_tails: install guest additions for the xp client then use virtualbox shared folder on the vm setup

[09:05] <Engonyr> wait, yesterday I was on windows.. I mean two days ago.
[09:05] <chroot> and is there anone who knows ubuntu cloud computing?
[09:06] <airtonix> ruby_on_tails: start by installing the guest additions for the xp guest
[09:06] <chroot> i just can't build my  pribate cloud with ubuntu ?
[09:06] <flurp> hi, where has cobbler gone from the apt sources
[09:06] <airtonix> ruby_on_tails: on your virtualmachine window running the xp guest, select from the menus "install guest addtitions", this will download an ISO and mount it in the guest machine)
[09:06] <flurp> apt can\t find it
[09:07] <Starminn> chroot, http://cloud.ubuntu.com/
[09:07] <Starminn> chroot, I see, "Find out more about how Ubuntu can power your public, private and personal cloud" in that link
[09:07] <airtonix> ruby_on_tails: http://www.giannistsakiris.com/index.php/2007/09/28/virtualbox-access-shared-folders-from-windows-xp-guest-os/
[09:07] <chroot> Starminn, is it the ubuntu docmentation?
[09:08] <LaRaza> Anonymous México da todo su apoyo al Foro de Chimpout en su batalla eterna para extingir la raza negra
[09:08] <Starminn> chroot, That is the official Ubuntu site, yes. Anything with "ubuntu.com" or "something.ubuntu.com" is official
[09:08] <ruby_on_tails> airtonix: hmm that looks easier
[09:09] <chroot> and it will illustrate how to build a pribate cloud with ubuntu server?
[09:09] <airtonix> ruby_on_tails: infact if you just right click a folder on your ubuntu desktop and select "share folder" you will be prompted to install userland sharing tools, and after restarting computer you can just share the folder that way.
[09:09] <ruby_on_tails> hmm
[09:09] <airtonix> ruby_on_tails: you might also need to allow samba rules with ufw : sudo ufw allow samba
[09:10] <airtonix> ruby_on_tails: but that virtualbox shared folders is probably neater
[09:10] <ruby_on_tails> samba looks tough
[09:10] <Starminn> chroot, I see "Build your own cloud" here: http://www.ubuntu.com/business/cloud/overview
[09:10] <airtonix> ruby_on_tails: only if you try to do it with 4 year old methods
[09:10] <Starminn> chroot, Whatever you need, it's likely on the site. Just have to look
[09:11] <chroot> yes, i am on the going
[09:12] <tewea> how can i lock the /var/lib/lists
[09:12] <airtonix> ruby_on_tails: just be aware, that when you install guest additions into a virtualised windows guest, it becomes "bound" to that virtual machine hardware combination (by virtue of the way windows works (or doesn't hoho) with hardware being switched around)
[09:13] <chroot> hi, what is Juju?
[09:13] <DarsVaeda> hi, I'm on ubuntu 11.10 how do I install kde?
[09:13] <jon___> is this the right place to ask about proftpd running on ubuntu server 11.10?
[09:13] <Starminn> chroot: https://juju.ubuntu.com/
[09:13] <airtonix> ruby_on_tails: so don't try this if you're virtualised windows guest is actually running from a real partition on a computer you need to boot up later on real hardware.
[09:13] <airtonix> your*
[09:14] <Starminn> DarsVaeda, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop (hold on - somebody correct me if I'm wrong?)
[09:14] <deej1976> DarsVaeda: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[09:14] <Nicolus> my PHP server is sending me data which is an image.. if i go on the Browser I can see the image and download the same... but i cannot do the same with cURL it breaks.. Can someone guild me ?
[09:14] <chroot> Starminn, thanks, is juju has any relation ship with cloud?
[09:14] <Starminn> Well, if two say it then it must be right. :)
[09:14] <DarsVaeda> ahhh, I looked for kde4
[09:14] <deej1976> DarsVaeda: And after a reboot, before entering your password select a kde session plasma possible
[09:15] <Starminn> chroot, "Why juju?" on that page covers it quite entirely
[09:15] <DarsVaeda> thanks to everyone :)
[09:15] <Starminn> chroot, Again, just read. :)
[09:15] <Starminn> DarsVaeda, :) Not a problem.
[09:15] <chroot> Starminn, ok, you are right
[09:15] <phlak_user> !ask | jon___
[09:17] <gabx> if i have a serial usb device, and want to open up a terminal to it.. how do i find where it is? i assume it's one of the ttyS's in /dev..
[09:18] <Thelmaria> gabx: /dev/TTYUSB0?
[09:18] <jon___> I have proftpd set up by webmin on a ubuntu 11.10 server. I need to setup a root ftp account but ubuntu has no root. Any workarounds?
[09:18] <phlak_user> gabx: serial usb's are generally in /dev/ttyUSB0 etc; most common way of communicating with a serial device is through minicom
[09:18] <Starminn> Nicolus, I don't think this is the right place for such a question. Perhaps #php would be better?
[09:19] <wooter> jon___, ubuntu has root account, it just has no password set
[09:21] <phlak_user> jon___: i wouldnt recommend running ftp as root; its a security risk!
[09:21] <Rakyth> hey
[09:21] <Rakyth> anyone here?
[09:21] <phlak_user> !anyone | Rakyth
[09:21] <Starminn> Rakyth, I can think of 1,577 people
[09:22] <Mryotesoe> not there :P Rakyth
[09:22] <Rakyth> alright: I need to do a low level/surface scan reformat of this 500GB drive I got mounted, but I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 64 bit off a 4gb USB boot desk
[09:22] <Rakyth> it's 3:30 AM and I'm really, really tired
[09:22] <Rakyth> low level reformat
[09:23] <Rakyth> and then there were none.
[09:24] <deej1976> Rakyth: http://www.masaokitamura.com/2010/09/linux-how-to-low-level-format-a-drive/
[09:24] <Starminn> !patience | Rakyth
[09:24] <jon___> phlak_user: actually I'm not trying to run as root, but rather i want an account that has R+W access to /home
[09:24] <phlak_user> jon___: thats easily achieved; read up on vsftp
[09:25] <phlak_user> !info vsftpd | jon___
[09:25] <jon___> phlak_user: i'm using proftpd
[09:25] <elky> Rakyth, it's common that people go off and google what you ask, sometimes (usually) it takes more than 90 seconds to evaluate the responses :P
[09:25] <deej1976> Rakyth: slightly faster: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda bs=1M , just need the correct /dev/sda? device
[09:25] <phlak_user> jon___: im sure there are options in the proftpd config to do the same
[09:25] <Rakyth> my drive isn't showing up on that df command
[09:26] <Rakyth> it's sda
[09:26] <jon___> phlak_user: I have normal users chromed to their home directories and say a user called admin which i chroot to /home. now the user called admin have read access to all the directories but it can't write because of "permission denied"
[09:26] <deej1976> Rakyth you said mounted? df -lk and look for the /media mount device.
[09:27] <Rakyth> not showing up in df
[09:27] <dupondje> [  114.745151] type=1400 audit(1320744151.241:27): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1 profile="/usr/lib/telepathy/telepathy-*" name="/etc/default/apport" pid=2231 comm="telepathy-butte" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0
[09:27] <Rakyth> it's showing up in the disk utility
[09:27] <dupondje> when I'm trying to connect to MSN in Empathy. Something missing in the apparmor rules ?
[09:27] <deej1976> Rakyth: Then you should see a device path
[09:28] <Rakyth> ./dev/sda
[09:28] <deej1976> Rakyth: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1M
[09:28] <deej1976> Rakyth: WARNING this will completely wipe the drive, good bye everything
[09:29] <Rakyth> I've repartitioned it at least 9x and tried to reformat it over 4 OS
[09:29] <Rakyth> err, that reminds me
[09:29] <phlak_user> jon___: maybe you need to play with AllowOverwrite directive inside the proftpd config file
[09:30] <Rakyth> the reason why I need to do the surface scan is because I have over 900 bad sectors and can't afford to replace the drive, being a 17 year old without a driver's license living out in the country, having been born in the city
[09:30] <robertzaccour> I can't connect to windows live messenger using empathy. Is this a bug?
[09:30] <jon___> phlak_user: what does that do?
[09:30] <Rakyth> deej1976 will those 900+ bad sectors show up through that or what?
[09:30] <jon___> phlak_user: hmm a quick google tells me that allows a file to be overwritten. but i can't even write new files using the user "admin" which i described above
[09:31] <jon___> phlak_user: Here's my directory structure....  /public_html owned by root, /public_html/userA owned by userA:userA, /public_html/userB owned by userB:userB
[09:32] <jon___> phlak_user: correction... /home owned by root, /home/usera owned by usera:usera and /home/userb owned by users:userb
[09:32] <jon___> phlak_user: userb:userb *
[09:33] <jon___> user admin is chromed to /home but cannot write any files to /home/usera because it doesn't have permission to
[09:34] <Rakyth> Deej1976?
[09:34] <deej1976> Rakyth: Reading up
[09:35] <Rakyth> alright
[09:36] <phlak_user> jon___: you could also use AllowGroup/AllowUser directive inside each of the directory structures in the Proftpd config. http://www.proftpd.org/docs/directives/linked/by-name.html
[09:37] <robertzaccour> I can't connect to windows live messenger using empathy. Is this a bug?
[09:37] <Myrtti> robertzaccour: others are reporting problems as well.
[09:37] <jon___> phlak_user: thanks i will try that now
[09:37] <robertzaccour> Myrtti, yes
[09:38] <Rakyth> deej1976 : is there something else I need to do later or can I just let that sit overnight and come back here ~14 hours from now?
[09:38] <gabx> Thelmaria: Well that was my thought aswell, but I can not find that node in my system..
[09:39] <Rakyth> whenever I typed that command in, it went to a blank line. is that normal? :U
[09:39] <deej1976> Rakyth: http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/badblockhowto.html
[09:39] <gabx> Thelmaria: is there maybe a module that is not loaded by default in ubuntu ? (lsusb and usbmon recognizes the device)
[09:39] <GeorgeJ> Hello folks. How does one edit a file over sftp with gedit?
[09:39] <phlak_user> Rakyth: if you send a kill -USR1 dd (it will print out statistics)
[09:40] <Rakyth> right now?
[09:40] <phlak_user> GeorgeJ: mount the remote directory via sshfs?
[09:40] <phlak_user> Rakyth: yes
[09:40] <phlak_user> GeorgeJ: or download the file, edit it and then upload it back
[09:40] <Rakyth> what do I need from that url?
[09:40] <GeorgeJ> phlak_user: I see, allright. I asked because I thought there would be a faster alternative
[09:40] <deej1976> Rakyth: Another option is to try the tool provided by the disk maker, like SeaTools ( bootable iso )
[09:41] <GeorgeJ> I remember Ubuntu having "remote locations" a while back
[09:41] <Rakyth> it's a westerd nigital drive
[09:41] <Rakyth> western digital*
[09:41] <phlak_user> GeorgeJ: yes; thats a font-end for SMB/NFS/WebDAV/SSHfs etc
[09:41] <Nicolus> Starminn, thanks :)
[09:42] <GeorgeJ> phlak_user: Is it still available in Ubuntu 11.10?
[09:42] <GeorgeJ> I remember it being available before Ubuntu 11.04(before unity)
[09:42] <Rakyth> so what am I doing now?
[09:43] <deej1976> Rakyth: Just read it information, for WD goto http://support.wdc.com/product/download.asp
[09:43] <phlak_user> GeorgeJ:  in Nautilus, there is an option called "Connect to Server"
[09:43] <Rakyth> sir, I have lost 4 hours of sleep
[09:43] <deej1976> Rakyth: and look for Diag504fCD.iso
[09:43] <Rakyth> I need to wake up in two hours
[09:43] <Rakyth> I can barely read or type
[09:44] <GeorgeJ> phlak_user: Found it, tyvm!
[09:44] <phlak_user> Georgeyw
[09:44] <deej1976> Rakyth, go to wdc.com/products/download.asp
[09:44] <deej1976> Rakyth: Find your drive
[09:44] <deej1976> Rakyth: Download the Diag504fCD.iso
[09:44] <deej1976> Rakyth: and boot this and to a long diagnostic
[09:44] <Rakyth> .iso?
[09:44] <Rakyth> what would I mount it to?
[09:45] <deej1976> Rakyth: Burn to CD and boot from it
[09:45] <Rakyth> I can't burn it to a CD
[09:45] <jon___> phlak_user: how do i actually use that with <LIMIT>
[09:47] <deej1976> Rakyth: Then you need to follow the smarttools like, but you sound like you should get some sleep first
[09:47] <Rakyth> doesn't the tools need time?
[09:48] <deej1976> Rakyth: I've not read the full details, only the index
[09:48] <jon___> phlak_user: I tried that but still denied
[09:49] <phlak_user> jon___: unfortunately, I havent used proftpd; you might have to try some combinations;
[09:49] <phlak_user> jon___: did you restart/reload the server after you changed config?
[09:49] <jon___> phlak_user: 550 upload.txt: Permission denied
[09:49] <jon___> phlak_user: yup restarted the server
[09:49] <phlak_user> jon___: is that error from proftpd logs?
[09:50] <jon___> phlak_user: nope its from my ftp client
[09:50] <phlak_user> jon___: can you tail the proftpd log file while doing this; you might get some more detailed messages
[09:51] <robertzaccour> I can't connect to windows live messenger using empathy. Is this a bug?
[09:52] <ojii> hi everyone
[09:52] <Rakyth> so there's nothing I can do about my hdd on linux?
[09:52] <jon___> phlak_user: doesn't log anything there
[09:52] <phlak_user> robertzaccour: did you install the telepathy-butterfly package?
[09:53] <phlak_user> jon___: maybe you need to increase verbosity
[09:53] <deej1976> Rakyth: The link has the information, but it need to be read an understood
[09:53] <AndroidLoverInSF> when i do update manager, it now wants to update a lot of pulse stuff from Other repository, but get authentication error. not trusted. so how to workaround using update manager?
[09:53] <ojii> the ocelot upgrade was horrible for me and the system is very unstable for me now. So I am thinking about a reinstall now. I have / and /home/ on different partitions (same disk), so what would I loose when doing a clean installation over the / partition?
[09:53] <phlak_user> !info telepathy-butterfly
[09:53] <Rakyth> "Bad block reassignment" this looks like it'd be what I used
[09:53] <deej1976> Rakyth: smartctl -l selftest /dev/sda #generates bad sector list
[09:53] <jon___> phlak_user: perhaps. only logins are logged
[09:53] <phlak_user> AndroidLoverInSF: add the gpg keys for that repo
[09:54] <deej1976> sg_verify --lba=$BAD_SECTOR /dev/sda
[09:54] <jon___> phlak_user: but there is an xferlog
[09:54] <robertzaccour> phlak_user, no
[09:54] <deej1976> sg_reassign --address=$BAD_SECTOR /dev/sda
[09:54] <Rakyth> thanks, how would I move those to their own partition afterwards
[09:54] <phlak_user> robertzaccour: then install please (see factoid above)
[09:54] <Rakyth> wait, which one would I use?
[09:54] <deej1976> Rakyth: sg_reassign does the move
[09:55] <robertzaccour> phlak_user, looks like its already installed
[09:55] <deej1976> Rakyth: This has come for the link I sent
[09:55] <Rakyth> so repeat that for every sector?
[09:55] <deej1976> Yes, a script would be handy
[09:55] <AndroidLoverInSF> i bet lots of people have that problem and dont know how, especially the users unity wants to target
[09:55] <Rakyth> yeah, since I have 900+ of those
[09:55] <robertzaccour> phlak_user, its just not logging in. its doing that logging in thing but not logging in
[09:56] <robertzaccour> with the circular motion like a wait symbol
[09:56] <robertzaccour> says connecting now matter how long I wait
[09:56] <Rakyth> should I just log back in tomorrow with my list and see if I can get someone to write me a script for it?
[09:56] <phlak_user> robertzaccour: hmm; i dont use windows live; try this -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10003289&postcount=17
[09:57] <AndroidLoverInSF> is this the best way to do it, example: gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-key 51716619E084DAB9
[09:57] <AndroidLoverInSF> gpg -a --export 51716619E084DAB9 > jranke_cran.asc
[09:57] <AndroidLoverInSF> sudo apt-key add jranke_cran.asc
[09:57] <AndroidLoverInSF> gotta be some easier way than that to do for every signature thats invalid
[09:59] <robertzaccour> phlak_user, thats the script I currently have, but thanks anyhow
[09:59] <phlak_user> robertzaccour: ok
[10:00] <jon___> phlak_user: anything else i can try?
[10:00] <deej1976> Rakyth: smartctl -l selftest /dev/sda # let this test run over night
[10:00] <Rakyth> smartmontools won't install
[10:00] <phlak_user> jon___: looks like its not a proftpd error; is the admin user able to write into other users' directories locally?
[10:01] <deej1976> sudo apt-get install smartmontools
[10:01] <Rakyth> i've done that
[10:01] <deej1976> Rakyth: what was the error
[10:01] <jon___> phlak_user: if i login to ftp using userA i am able to write but if i login using admin I'm not able to write to userA's directory
[10:01] <phlak_user> jon___: i meant locally (without FTP)
[10:02] <jon___> phlak_user: its running as proftpd:nogroup
[10:02] <Rakyth> dpkg: error processing man-db (--unpack):  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Processing triggers for ureadahead ... Errors were encountered while processing:  /var/cache/apt/archives/postfix_2.8.2-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb  man-db
[10:02] <jon___> phlak_user: yup user admin isn't able to write locally
[10:02] <jon___> phlak_user: that was my question. how do i allow that
[10:02] <phlak_user> jon___: so solve that problem first :) proftpd will only inherit
[10:02] <p014k> Does anyone know how to run brasero without the gui?
[10:02] <jon___> phlak_user: yup, sorry for not being clear in explaining. the problem is how should i solve that? :)
[10:03] <phlak_user> jon___: make them all part of the same group and allow group write on the home directories (not recommended)
[10:03] <deej1976> Rakyth: sudo apt-get autoclean ?
[10:03] <Rakyth> then install smartmontools?
[10:03] <jon___> phlak_user: any better solution? the home directories are crowned by userA:userA. how do i let "admin" write to it?
[10:04] <jon___> phlak_user: chowned*
[10:04] <Rakyth> "The following packages have unmet dependencies:  bsd-mailx : Depends: default-mta or                       mail-transport-agent E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution)."
[10:04] <deej1976> Rakyth: apt-get -f  install
[10:05] <gabx> What happened to /dev/ttyUSB ? :)
[10:05] <phlak_user> jon___: create a common group for all users (say jongroup) and chown -R userA:jongroup /home/userA and chmod -R 765 /home/userA
[10:05] <Rakyth> still getting errors
[10:05] <Rakyth> ?
[10:05] <jon___> phlak_user: no other way to do it without changing directory permissions?
[10:06] <phlak_user> jon___: not that i know of
[10:06] <jon___> phlak_user: then how does the root ftp user work
[10:06] <SkyNetMaster> hi, could you advice me pleas on how do I disable window roll up effect in xfce?
[10:06] <phlak_user> jon___: in other OS, it lets the root user login
[10:06] <jon___> phlak_user: or can i add admin to group userA
[10:06] <Starminn> SkyNetMaster, #xubuntu may have better luc
[10:07] <deej1976> Rakyth: Is this a liveCD/USB ?
[10:07] <Starminn> luck*
[10:07] <Rakyth> yes
[10:07] <jon___> phlak_user: would secondary group work?
[10:07] <SkyNetMaster> Starminn, #xubuntu is quite empty and sleepy :/
[10:07] <deej1976> Rakyth: Can you reboot so the environment is clean
[10:07] <phlak_user> jon___: http://www.proftpd.org/docs/directives/linked/config_ref_RootLogin.html
[10:08] <phlak_user> jon___: only if that group is permitted
[10:08] <phlak_user> !chown
[10:08] <deej1976> Rakyth: Then run sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install smartmontools
[10:08] <Starminn> SkyNetMaster, This? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1482539
[10:09] <SkyNetMaster> Starminn, seen that but it is unclear how dude did it :/
[10:09] <Rakyth> alright so
[10:09] <jon___> phlak_user: but it didn't work i tried adding user admin to group userA but still couldn't writ to it
[10:09] <Starminn> SkyNetMaster, It's in Emerald. (At least for him it was)
[10:09] <Rakyth> install smartmontools let that run through the night
[10:09] <Rakyth> and then come back here?
[10:10] <deej1976> Rakyth: Yep
[10:10] <Rakyth> alright
[10:10] <Rakyth> thank you
[10:10] <deej1976> Rakyth: I should be around tomorrow
[10:10] <Starminn> SkyNetMaster, Or if you just want it gone and don't really care how, this may work: http://ffct.cc/xfce-disable-window-roll-up/ (may be old though)
[10:10] <Rakyth> i have a feeling trig isn't going to be so easy tomorrow
[10:10] <jon___> phlak_user: btw, i really appreciate your help so far. i've been trying to figure this out all day
[10:11] <deej1976> Rakyth: Good luck
[10:11] <Rakyth> thank you, I've been stuck on this for months
[10:12] <hc96> Hi! what's happening here with gitk? I cant read the fonts, they are so distorted: http://img7.imagebanana.com/img/xfx99f2e/gitkgit_001.png. Increasing font-size does not remove the distortion. I'm running ubuntu11.10
[10:16] <sweb> how can i get my group name in linux ?
[10:17] <Thelmaria> sweb, id
[10:18] <SkyNetMaster> Starminn, thanks, I could now locate it in the settings editor :)
[10:18] <gabx> Hello, if i can not find /dev/ttyUSB what am i doing wrong? (ubuntu 11.10, brttly uninstalled)
[10:18] <Starminn> SkyNetMaster, :)
[10:19] <Thelmaria> gabx, you could try: tail -f /var/log/dmseg, then unplug / re-plug your device, see what happens.
[10:19] <gabx> dmesg recognizes the device, lsusb does too ( and usbmon ).
[10:19] <sergiubsd> guys how do i set the default soundcard on xubuntu ? i tried 'asoundconf-gtk' but it doesen't start
[10:20] <gabx> Thelmaria: dmesg gives me "new full speed USB device number X using ehci_hcdd"
[10:21] <Rakyth> deej1976: are you still here?
[10:21] <deej1976> Rakyth: yes
[10:22] <Rakyth> "Smartctl open device: /dev/sda failed: Permission denied" is what it threw up
[10:22] <Thelmaria> gabx: Hmm. Sorry, then - my serial-usb device appears under /dev/ttyUSB0. I'm not sure what more help i can give if the device isn't mentioned in dmesg.
[10:22] <deej1976> Did you append sudo?
[10:22] <Rakyth> yes
[10:22] <Rakyth> well I was already root from sudo bash, do I need to use sudo still?
[10:22] <deej1976> Rakyth: Nope
[10:23] <deej1976> cat /proc/partitions , is the drive there?
[10:23] <Rakyth> huh
[10:23] <Rakyth> it's done already
[10:23] <Rakyth> it worked that 2nd time
[10:23] <gabx> Thelmaria: I've read of a bug regarding brttly daemon, but i've followed the instructions and unistalled it. dmesg shows the device, but gives me not more information but "new full speed USB device number 8 using ehci_hcd ) it is in lsusb and syslog recognizes it aswell. it seams just that the link to the device is placed elsewhere then ttyusb? not sure.. it's a bit annoying at this point to say the least.. thanks for your help.
[10:23] <deej1976> Rakyth: Ok,
[10:23] <Rakyth> deej1976: where can I post the results?
[10:24] <deej1976> pastebin.ubuntu.com
[10:24] <gabx> Thelmaria: the device is a "telldus duo" radio transmitter/reciever device.
[10:24] <gabx> of that helps
[10:25] <Rakyth> deej1976: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/731875/

[10:26] <deej1976> Rakyth: hmmm not the 900, or is there more?
[10:26] <bonhoffer> i thought i would be in /mnt
[10:27] <Rakyth> deej1976: that was all that came up
[10:27] <Thelmaria> gabx: I'm not sure. Reading this (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2530096/linux-how-to-find-all-serial-devices-ttys-ttyusb-without-opening-them), it seems you could check /proc/tty for attached device information. That might help
[10:27] <sander^work> How come phpinfo dosn't show gd even if php5-gd is installed long time ago?

[10:30] <deej1976> Rakyth: I surrender, white flag waving high!
[10:30] <bonhoffer> cool -- so the disk is there -- i mounted it, but still nothing in /mnt
[10:30] <deej1976> bonhoffer: look under /media
[10:31] <jon____> phlak_user: hello again, sorry i got disconnected just now, any new insights?
[10:31] <Rakyth> deej1976: must be western digital's "fixed" caviar blue line or something huh
[10:31] <deej1976> Are you able to download the Western Digital ISO ? and burn at College
[10:32] <Rakyth> the local college is 15 miles away and I don't have access to a car

[10:33] <Rakyth> deej1976: can you hand me the link to the file? I'll download it here and burn it at school
[10:33] <Rakyth> oh I remember what I had to do for that
[10:33] <Rakyth> and the uh
[10:33] <Rakyth> deej:1976 the western digital iso will solve this issue for sure?
[10:34] <deej1976> Rakyth: It will fix if possible, or give you a code you could use to return the driver if under warranty
[10:34] <Rakyth> alright, thank you
[10:34] <jon____> okay here's my question again. I have ubuntu11.10 server installed with webmin/virtualmin. It has proftpd set up. Each user is able to upload to their home directory. How do i allow userA to write to userB's home directory?
[10:34] <deej1976> Rakyth: http://support.wdc.com/product/download.asp?groupid=606&sid=30&lang=en
[10:35] <Thelmaria> jon____: Have you tried putting userA and userB into a group "usersGroup", chgrp'ing their home directories to "usersGroup", and then x7x'ing the dirs so groups have write access?
[10:35] <gabx> Thelmaria: thank you, will try to solve it further!
[10:35] <sergiubsd> how do i set the default soundcard on xubuntu ? i tried 'asoundconf-gtk' but it doesen't start
[10:36] <Thelmaria> jon____: Or, alterantivly, mkdir /home/users_shared, ln -s /home/users_shared /home/usera/shared etc, and chgrping the shared to write acces?
[10:36] <chymist> When I attempt to install bitcoin on Ubuntu karmic via apt, the following dependency issues occur: http://pastebin.com/2Q9xgpNH ; I'm unable to resolve them by any means I've tried, and there have been a few. Please assist.
[10:36] <jon____> Thelmaria: What i actually want is an ftpadmin account that can access the /home directory
[10:36] <Thelmaria> gabx: Sorry I can't be of much more help. Repeat the question in 20-30, see if somebody else can give a hand :)
[10:36] <bonhoffer> i connected a usb drive, but can't seem to write anything
[10:37] <bonhoffer> yeah -- i tried touch test.txt in the root "REad only file system"

[10:37] <auronandace> sergiubsd: can't you press the mixer applet in the panel?

[10:38] <sergiubsd> but it doesen't have an option for default
[10:38] <auronandace> sergiubsd: are you sure you aren't using the indicator applet? (you'd need to add the mixer applet)
[10:39] <bonhoffer> it is HFS+
[10:39] <xsaidx> hello guys
[10:39] <Thelmaria> bonhoffer: You could format it to FAT, so your mac + linux + windows machines can all read and write happily. Is HFS supported by ubuntu as a read-write filesystem?
[10:39] <sergiubsd> ok than what do i have to add to the pannel
[10:39] <xsaidx> this is my /var/log/xorg.0log http://pastebin.com/B0aqynzW can someone check it please

[11:37] <GeorgeJ> dr_willis: No other way than booting into windows?
[11:37] <Onyx47> bonhoffer, maximurize? you might need compizfusion-plugins-extra and you definately need ccsm
[11:37] <bonhoffer> Onyx47: not standard?
[11:37] <iceroot> F-3000: can you paste me the output of "dpkg -l foo2zjs" i just need to know if it is starting with "ii"
[11:38] <JapyDooge> http://www.phpbb.com/ is the most populair and easiest to use imo :) but thats personal offcourse
[11:38] <Onyx47> bonhoffer, not sure if it's in standard package
[11:38] <bonhoffer> Onyx47: thanks, i'll look

[11:43] <iceroot> F-3000: for the login, your userlogin should work

[11:44] <midhuno> i am new to ubuntu
[11:44] <Onyx47> GeorgeJ, yeah, as far as I remember you need a proper umask for ntfs, try replacing "defaults" with "defaults,umask=007"
[11:44] <F-3000> iceroot: No login asked when getting in (or else it has perma login). I'll throw a cut from the error log into pastebin, it might hint something.
[11:45] <F-3000> !paste

[11:46] <silv3r_m00n> hi there , on a remote system I installed vsftpd via ssh , vsftp is up and running and telnet localhost 21 works , but I cannot connect to port 21 from outside (my computer) what could be the reason ?
[11:46] <F-3000> iceroot: http://paste.ubuntu.com/731930/
[11:46] <admiralshlorky> go to system > preferences > sound > hardware
[11:46] <milamber> silv3r_m00n: check your router settings
[11:46] <admiralshlorky> then test the speakers that you normally use
[11:46] <admiralshlorky> just to make sure you know which is which
[11:46] <Onyx47> silv3r_m00n, local network or over internet?
[11:46] <F-3000> iceroot: It keeps repeating that every two seconds.
[11:47] <silv3r_m00n> Onyx47: over internet
[11:47] <silv3r_m00n> direct IP address
[11:47] <admiralshlorky> then go to output and change it to the correct hardware
[11:47] <admiralshlorky> if that doesn't fix it
[11:47] <Thelmaria> silv3r_m00n: Firewall between you and the remote server? telnet's a pretty insecure protocol, it should be blocked by default.
[11:47] <Onyx47> silv3r_m00n, you need to set up port forwarding on your router most likely
[11:47] <silv3r_m00n> Thelmaria: but telnet IP 80 and 22 works
[11:47] <silv3r_m00n> its not behind a router , it's a direct static IP to that remote machine
[11:47] <midhuno> my ubuntu doesnt playing login sound.......sometimes it does not playing sound through speakers when i unplug my earphone
[11:47] <admiralshlorky> midhuno
[11:47] <admiralshlorky> read what i said
[11:47] <admiralshlorky> try it out
[11:47] <admiralshlorky> if it doesn't work
[11:48] <FloodBot1> admiralshlorky: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:48] <admiralshlorky> then ask again
[11:48] <bonhoffer> my onboard graphics are supposed to support 1920 x 1080, but displays only lets me select much less, options?
[11:48] <iBoi> I don't like Unity or Gnome 3. How do I get rid of this crap before I revert back to Mac OS X Lion?
[11:48] <midhuno> my ubuntu doesnt playing login sound.......sometimes it does not playing sound through speakers when i unplug my earphone
[11:48] <admiralshlorky> i tried
[11:48] <GeorgeJ> Onyx47: Doesn't help, apart from not being able to access the mount as a normal user(non-root), I still can't delete the file, same error
[11:48] <silv3r_m00n> is there some kind of firewall on the remote Ubuntu (11.10) where I need to enable the port 21 ?
[11:48] <deej1976> iBoi: could try xubuntu kubuntu lubuntu
[11:49] <deej1976> !notunity
[11:49] <GeorgeJ> iBoi: I had the same issue, I _REALLY_ hated Unity, but kept an open mind, turns out its not so bad
[11:49] <bonhoffer> i think i need custom drivers for Z68AP-D3 (gigabyte)

[11:51] <x3cuti0n3r> hello everybody
[11:51] <midhuno> admiralshlorky, my speakers are working fine now but the login sound is not playing on startup....an no sound through speakers when i unplugged the jack
[11:51] <x3cuti0n3r> hmmmm
[11:51] <deej1976> bonhoffer: Any settings in the bios to assign more memory to onboard graphics
[11:51] <admiralshlorky> idk then midhuno, sounds like it's switching your output whenever you unplug your speakers
[11:51] <bonhoffer> deej1976: thanks, i'll look in that direction
[11:52] <midhuno> admiralshlorky what 2 do then???
[11:52] <bonhoffer> deej1976: but you don't think i need something like: http://gigabyte-ga-z68ap-d3-rev-1-0-intel-vga.driver.soft32download.com/
[11:53] <midhuno> admiralshlorky the sound comes when i tried to increse sound  after unpluging jack
[11:53] <conntrack> haha
[11:53] <admiralshlorky> midhuno no freaking clue

[11:55] <deej1976> bonhoffer: Not very user friendly for install though
[11:55] <bonhoffer> deej1976: thanks -- is the Z68 a graphics chip
[11:55] <bonhoffer> maybe someone has packaged it up
[11:55] <midhuno> what 2 do to get login sound on ubuntu 11-10...

[11:59] <dmb_> the flicker moves up the screen about 1hz
[11:59] <dr_willis> dmb_:  thats called  'tearing'

[12:06] <dmb_> sorry, windows drivers for ext
[12:06] <ziggyfish_> quick question, I want to change the cups configuration using the web interface (because Gnome 3.0 is so useless when configuring basic system stuff)
[12:06] <Onyx47> GeorgeJ, just don't do ext4, drivers are kinda wonky, I used ext3 with no issues before
[12:06] <F-3000> Georgej: I use ntfs, been working nice.
[12:06] <ziggyfish_> what is the password to log into cups?
[12:07] <dmb_> ziggyfish_: your root pwd
[12:07] <GeorgeJ> F-3000: I just had an issue with NTFS corrupting files(just one fortunatly) randomly
[12:07] <ziggyfish_> I've tried that
[12:07] <dmb_> yeah, used ext3 in windows or ntfs in linux with no problems
[12:07] <iceroot> ziggyfish_: your userpassword normally
[12:07] <dmb_> ziggyfish_: iirc it should be that
[12:08] <GeorgeJ> I remember using ext3 under windows aswell. I'll look into that, hoping the driver(if it is a driver) is signed so it'll work under the 64bit version of w7
[12:08] <ziggyfish_> iceroot: you mean my username (not root), and my password?
[12:08] <dmb_> no clue I'm afraid
[12:08] <dmb_> ziggyfish_: that sounds reasonable under ubuntu
[12:08] <iceroot> ziggyfish_: yes, by default there is no root-password
[12:09] <ziggyfish_> nope
[12:09] <dmb_> ziggyfish_: cups + user pwd?
[12:09] <ziggyfish_> yes, non of them work
[12:10] <F-3000> iceroot: You ran out of clues?
[12:10] <iceroot> F-3000: yes :(
[12:11] <ziggyfish_> I know I have the right passwords because I can su into root.
[12:11] <ziggyfish_> using the same password
[12:11] <dmb_> ziggyfish_: tried google?
[12:11] <dmb_> I think the user may be cupsadmin or summut
[12:12] <NeoCicak> hi all... when my ubuntu uses kernel 3.0, it crashes my wireless router... booting ubuntu in kernel 2.8 does not crash the wireless router. Has anyone experienced this before?
[12:12] <sid1monu>  
[12:12] <Onyx47> is there a separate channel for ubuntu server perhaps?
[12:13] <dmb_> NeoCicak: sounds like you need newer wifi drivers
[12:13] <sattu94> sid1monu: Hi!
[12:13] <iceroot> Onyx47: #ubuntu-server
[12:13] <Onyx47> oh, there is. ty iceroot
[12:13] <sid1monu> sattu94:This isn't a place to chat
[12:13] <sid1monu> lol
[12:13] <NeoCicak> dmb_ hmmm... so it has been fixed in newer wifi drivers? how do i know the version of wifi drivers i have atm?
[12:14] <dmb_> NeoCicak: ah...
[12:14] <dmb_> NeoCicak: what wifi card do you have
[12:14] <dmb_> (i'm not an expert on hardware)
[12:15] <NeoCicak> dmb_ mmm is there some sort of command i can run to get that info? i have a thinkpad t410... and if i'm not mistaken, it is intel wifi card
[12:15] <dmb_> NeoCicak: there is, but IDK
[12:15] <Onyx47> NeoCicak, lspci
[12:16] <dmb_> so how do I enable tripple buffering?
[12:16] <Onyx47> it will be somewhere in the list
[12:16] <dmb_> just read this: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=928593
[12:16] <dmb_> 06:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)

[12:17] <NeoCicak> dmb_ mine is Intel Corporation Centrino Ultimate-N 6300
[12:18] <F-3000> iceroot: Thanks for trying. :)
[12:22] <ziggyfish_> dmb_: got around it by disabling the authentication, will find what password is needs to be later
[12:23] <dmb_> ziggyfish_: cool
[12:23] <Guest71183> hey, ive just setup a raid1 array with the alternate install setup and i think it is all setup correctly but would really like to check, has anyone here done this before?

[12:32] <F-3000> iceroot: You got any idea how to reset cups into state where it is right after installing Ubuntu? Or suggestions how/where to search? I've googled it several times in long timespan, but I've never found anything that would reveal this simple information.
[12:33] <GeorgeJ> Hmm, my left mouse button has stopped working all of a sudden, I can move the mouse, the hovering is working(icons change colours), right click is working. Also, when hovering over the dash it does not pop up

[12:41] <Amdpc> Hello...Is there utorrent available for ubuntu/linux ? I have downloaded the one from utorrent site..but unable to install it...Is there any gui based utorrent for ubuntu ?
[12:41] <go8765> can anybody help me with animation in libreoffice? I need to move text on straight laine, but it make little  deviation. How I can fix this?
[12:42] <Onyx47> Amdpc, utorrent works through wine, for native clients I'm using qbittorrent and I'm quite happy with it
[12:44] <Amdpc> Onyx47 : Does the downloading starts as soon as th.torrent file is opened ? Because in utorrent it does but in Transmission it doesnt.. :(
[12:44] <Onyx47> Amanas,
[12:44] <Onyx47> whoops
[12:45] <Onyx47> Amdpc, depends on your browser settings, you need to set whatever client you use as default for .torrent files and choose open instead of save in FF/whatever browser

[12:48] <searching> put <VirtualHost ....>....</VirtualHost> and all done?
[12:49] <Onyx47> searching, yes, and also you'll need to edit /etc/hosts so you can access it

[12:52] <Lysandius> I'm not sure if this is the right channel to ask... But I can no longer connect to MSN with Empathy since this morning. Other protocols work fine.
[12:53] <esben> How would I go around putting ubuntu 11.10 to sleep when I consider it idle? Idle in my case means: xbmc not playing videos, no keyboard/mouse activity for X minutes, no disc accessing.
[12:53] <ojii> the ocelot upgrade was horrible for me and the system is very unstable for me now. So I am thinking about a reinstall now. I have / and /home/ on different partitions (same disk), so what would I loose when doing a clean installation over the / partition?
[12:53] <esben> Or is the no disc accessing a bad condition? logs being written etc
[12:54] <GeorgeJ> esben: XBMC should have an option for that
[12:54] <iceroot> Lysandius: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/papyon/+bug/887349
[12:55] <esben> GeorgeJ, yeah, but it just sleeps the computer when no video or music is playing regardless of disc activity or ssh activity
[12:55] <deej1976> Lysandius: Have you tried with pidgin
[12:56] <iceroot> Lysandius: its already fixed upstream but the ubuntu-patch is pending
[12:56] <GeorgeJ> esben: Hmm, I don't think disc activity is a good parameter for decided wether to sleep the computer or not
[12:56] <Lysandius> iceroot, ubottu: Thanks :)
[12:56] <GeorgeJ> esben: As you said, log files might still be written to for example, on a time-based matter
[12:57] <GeorgeJ> schedule*
[12:57] <Lysandius> deej1976, I'll try pidgin in a sec. But maybe it's better to take a break from MSN for a day or so. I'm actually discovering an entire new world (or just other parts of the internet...).
[12:57] <searching> to remove VirtualHost? delete from /etc/../sites-available <VirtualHost>..</VirtualHost> ?
[12:58] <iceroot> Lysandius: should be fixed soon
[12:58] <GeorgeJ> esben: You could measure the disc activity as the speed that it's accessed with, and have a threshold
[12:58] <esben> yeah
[12:58] <iceroot> Lysandius: as it seems every program is affacted by that because they are all using /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/papyon/service/AddressBook/ab.py
[12:58] <baaaac> dose ubuntu support APU?
[12:58] <esben> seems not so easy to make a desktop sleep actually...
[12:58] <GeorgeJ> esben: Either way, you basicaly need either a deamon or chron script. Have XBMC write to a file when it's idle, then check for ssh connections, and for the disc activity treshold
[12:59] <Lysandius> iceroot, Then I'll have to wait... No problem. Thanks for the answers :)
[13:00] <erkan^> iceroot, PHLAK : i miss Gnome 2 )-:
[13:00] <iceroot> !nounity | erkan^
[13:02] <esben> GeorgeJ, this will be alot more tricky than anticipated.. :)
[13:02] <GeorgeJ> esben: I believe XBMC can prevent the computer from going to sleep
[13:02] <Aldus> iceroot, Singham, thanks for advices about iPad2 (i had a call)
[13:02] <esben> Just checking that there not an easy way to do it before I reinvent the wheel
[13:03] <GeorgeJ> esben: If you look more into it, I'm sure you could do the same thing for the disc activity
[13:03] <esben> Is there a way to check if the system considers itself idle?
[13:03] <GeorgeJ> esben: Checking for active ssh sessions is easy
[13:03] <Aldus> however i wouldn't use iPad if there was any serious alternative
[13:03] <iceroot> esben: xbmc is not sending the pc into sleep-modus
[13:03] <iceroot> Aldus: galaxy tab 10.1 (but its offtopic)
[13:03] <GeorgeJ> esben: The system considers itself idle based on the settings you provide. Usually when there's no keyboard/mouse activity
[13:04] <GeorgeJ> esben: But I'm rather sure you can prevent the system from going to sleep
[13:04] <dupondje> https://launchpad.net/~dupondje/+archive/ppa/+build/2909972/+files/python-papyon_0.5.5-1ubuntu3%7Edupondje_all.deb => for everyone that has MSN issues :)
[13:04] <dupondje> this fixes the problem
[13:04] <GeorgeJ> There should be a timer or something that you could reset, I'm not sure
[13:05] <GeorgeJ> esben: http://coderrr.wordpress.com/2008/04/20/getting-idle-time-in-unix/ might help
[13:05] <esben> What im really looking for is how the system decides if its idle or not. For example keypresses might send a 'im still awake' signal to the system
[13:05] <esben> Sounds promising
[13:07] <students> hi
[13:08] <GeorgeJ> esben: The second answer might help with resetting the timer: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4721389/user-idle-time-being-reset-to-0-after-30-secs-on-linux
[13:08] <GeorgeJ> esben: And basicaly have a script execute every 30seconds or so, that checks for active ssh connections and disk activity, and do a poke to keep the system alive
[13:08] <GeorgeJ> XBMC should allready do this afaik when playing music/videos, there should be an option
[13:09] <Kingsy> can someone offer some advice with a samba problem ?
[13:09] <esben> Yeah, I think it does, but its kinda hard nowadays with unity and gnome3 to actually make the desktop sleep when idle...
[13:09] <esben> at least from GUI settings
[13:10] <Thelmaria> !ask | kingsy
[13:10] <Kingsy> I was hoping someone could help me debug my samba installation, it seems to work "sometimes" for example this morning it just doesnt work.. i.e you browse the windows network and you just get an empty folder
[13:10] <Matrix3000> !ask | everyone
[13:11] <Kingsy> I have checked I am set on the correct workgroup and I am, I have restarted the smbd and nmbd processes and still nothing
[13:11] <GeorgeJ> esben: How so?
[13:11] <Kingsy> so I really don't know what to do.. it seems to just "work" occasionally.
[13:11] <Kingsy> Thelmaria: any ideas? or suggestions?
[13:12] <esben> I just dont see any options in power for desktops to put to sleep when idle
[13:12] <Kingsy> I would love to know how to debug this in the future cos this samba "problem" seems to happen quite a bit for me

[13:16] <llutz_> luca you ever heard about "apt-get install foo"?
[13:16] <GeorgeJ> esben: You can find the System settings icon in the taskbar(if you haven't removed it) or by searching for "settings" in the dash
[13:16] <esben> I got it :)
[13:17] <luca> llutz_: no what is it? There are a lot of things in ubuntu
[13:18] <iceroot> !repo | luca
[13:18] <llutz_> luca: you are not pinned down to the stuff being installed by default, just install additional stuff as you like. so why worry about things not in the default installation?
[13:18] <iceroot> luca: its just not installed by default but can be pulled from the repos with apt-get or software-center
[13:19] <luca> llutz: Yes but what is mono in particular? Is it fundamental for the operative system??
[13:20] <llutz_> luca: its just another framework
[13:20] <Halabund> It was suggested for me to try a newer or older graphics driver to work around a crash --> http://askubuntu.com/questions/76005/mathematica-8-constantly-crashing-when-i-rotate-3d-graphics  How can I do this?  Is there an easy and safe way to try newer/older drivers?
[13:20] <Amdpc> Hi...as Wubi for windows ..Is there anythig for Ubuntu ?
[13:20] <luca> iceroot: If you can install it from software centre i think it's not so important, you can use the system without that component isn't?
[13:20] <llutz_> luca: not fundamental at all, i hope
[13:20] <iceroot> luca: correct
[13:20] <iceroot> luca: the important fact is that you dont need mono in 12.04 by default
[13:20] <luca> llutz_: have you got yhe list of all the frameworks?
[13:21] <llutz_> luca: no
[13:21] <esben> GeorgeJ, do you know a way to query ubuntu/unity if its idle?
[13:21] <luca> how can one person know if a framework is fundamental or not?
[13:21] <esben> or how long its been idle
[13:21] <Joelixny> Hello, I am unable to boot into Ubuntu. When I try to boot the splash screen just appears forever. This has happened for some time but I used to alt + 6 and run 'sudo lightdm' and that would fix it, but now it doesn't work anymore.
[13:21] <GeorgeJ> esben: Yes, I've given you a link to do just that
[13:22] <esben> through dbus?
[13:22] <llutz_> luca: easy: the distro comes without stuff but works, so it cannot be "fundamental".
[13:22] <iceroot> luca: there are two programs in the default installation which needed mono, both programs will be removed in 12.04, so mono is no needed anymore as default
[13:23] <luca> llutz_: so what is the advantage to use that framework?
[13:23] <llutz_> luca: its just a library used by some software
[13:23] <luca> iceroot: ah ok now I can understand do you know which are these two programs??
[13:24] <iceroot> luca: tomby and the audioplayer (dont remeber the name)
[13:25] <Hanmac> no one needs mono :P
[13:26] <iceroot> luca: tomboy and banshee
[13:26] <iceroot> luca: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/11/banshee-tomboy-and-mono-dropped-from-ubuntu-12-04-cd/
[13:26] <llutz_> luca: if you don't even know what mono is, why do you care that it won't be in 12.04 by default?
[13:27] <GeorgeJ> esben: It has nothing to do with Unity or gnome or anything else but X
[13:28] <GeorgeJ> esben: `xset q` might help, google for X idle timer for the language you are looking to get the time in
[13:28] <deej1976> !offtopic
[13:28] <GeorgeJ> esben: If its python: http://thp.io/2007/09/x11-idle-time-and-focused-window-in.html
[13:29] <somsip> !nounity | somsip
[13:29] <iceroot> luca: more important then mono is that vim is not in the default installation, or gimp
[13:29] <llutz_> or aptitude
[13:29] <iceroot> yes
[13:29] <esben> Thank you very much GeorgeJ
[13:29] <luca> iceroot: thank you I don't know tomby but i used banshee and for me is not a very good program i thiink it's very slow
[13:29] <Amdpc> Is there any thing like wubi in UBuntu ??
[13:30] <iceroot> Amdpc: ?
[13:30] <GeorgeJ> esben: xprintidle might also help
[13:30] <iceroot> Amdpc: wubi is from ubuntu
[13:30] <deej1976> iceroot: no vim ????
[13:30] <iceroot> deej1976: no, just vi
[13:30] <luca> llutz_: because i thought it was very important for more than 2 programs, I thought it was tha base of all operative system sorry
[13:31] <deej1976> iceroot: phew, I can breath again
[13:31] <luca> iceroot: but you can always install it from software centre isn't??
[13:31] <lev_> I heard that ubuntu makes big pressure on the hard disk?
[13:31] <llutz_> i'll see the time coming, they drop vi too
[13:32] <Amdpc> iceroot : I am on Ubuntu and I want to install Kubuntu (Dual boot) In the same way as i install ubuntu using wubi in windows
[13:32] <iceroot> luca: yes
[13:32] <luca> what is the difference from a program by default and a program on software centre? Is that you cannot control the code of that program>??
[13:32] <iceroot> Amdpc: ah ok, so you dont want to use a different (real) partition
[13:32] <llutz_> Amdpc: why not just installing kde and change session at login instead of dual-boot two nearly identical systems
[13:32] <iceroot> luca: the only difference is, that it is not installed by default
[13:32] <iceroot> luca: there are no other differences in the programs
[13:33] <bobono> hello!
[13:33] <Amdpc> llutz_ : I am doing that now...but the KDE crashes and I am forced to log in ti gnome Interface..thats why !
[13:33] <luca> iceroot: yes but what about the cose of there programs??
[13:33] <Amdpc> to*
[13:33] <iceroot> luca: apt-get source packagename
[13:34] <Amdpc> iceroot : Hmm...yes !
[13:34] <iceroot> luca: as i said, no differences between programs on cd and on the repos
[13:34] <luca> about the code of these programs
[13:34] <bobono> can someone help me? installed ubuntu on an older server (pentium 4, 4 hds) and now i dont get out of the BusyBox!
[13:34] <luca> iceroot: I don't use cd I use internet
[13:34] <iceroot> luca: so what is your point?
[13:35] <bobono> and i cannot access the drive i've installed ubuntu on with the live cd anymore
[13:35] <luca> iceroot: you can control the code both in the case of default that in the case of software centre?
[13:35] <iceroot> luca: what code? what you mean with control?
[13:35] <luca> the code in which a program is written
[13:36] <luca> for instance C language
[13:36] <iceroot> luca: apt-get source packagename to get the sourcecode
[13:36] <luca> I suppose that many programs on ubuntu are written in C langiage
[13:36] <iceroot> luca: and?
[13:36] <iceroot> luca: why is it important in what language something is written?
[13:37] <iceroot> luca: mono has nothing to do with real c
[13:37] <RaTTuS|BIG> luca and lots of other langauges - c was made for unix ;-p
[13:37] <lev_> hi,what is the best linux distro for c programmer?
[13:37] <luca> iceroot: because I'm studying C
[13:37] <RaTTuS|BIG> lev_ any of them
[13:37] <lev_> ?
[13:37] <llutz_> lev_: how should the distro make any difference
[13:37] <iceroot> lev_: gentoo :)
[13:37] <tjiggi_fo> heh
[13:37] <lev_> why
[13:37] <llutz_> lfs
[13:38] <RaTTuS|BIG> lev_ lfs?
[13:38] <Adams123> Hello, is there anyone know which is this %10%19%84G%D6J%3B%EF%D8%F4%5D5%87F%19%26? it's encryped with something and I don't know what..
[13:38] <iceroot> lev_: why should there be a difference in the distros when you want using c?
[13:38] <luca> for instance if i want the code of LibreOfficeWriter i have to use apt get source LibreOfficeWriter??
[13:38] <iceroot> lev_: every distro has gcc and vim
[13:38] <BluesKaj> hiyas all
[13:38] <iceroot> luca: i dont know if you really want that code but its "apt-get source libreoffice"
[13:39] <lev_> I find that some distros lack of gcc&gdb packege
[13:39] <ikonia> lev_: you find wrong
[13:39] <Gentoo64> lev_, you can install it
[13:39] <ikonia> lev_: pretty much every distro will have that pakcage
[13:39] <luca> iceroot: I'm trying with your command
[13:40] <GargantuaSauce> there are distros with no package manager and no compiler included by default and they are the most frustrating thing in existence
[13:40] <iceroot> luca: why not starting with something easier? libreoffice is one of the hardest things
[13:40] <lev_> yeah
[13:40] <luca> iceroot: it's 264 MB
[13:40] <iceroot> luca: as i said, do you really want that code
[13:40] <GargantuaSauce> moral: stay the hell away from freebsd :V
[13:40] <iceroot> luca: see ##c maybe its a better channel for your needs
[13:41] <Gentoo64> GargantuaSauce, freebsd has gcc....
[13:41] <luca> iceroot: I don't know which is lightes or hardest
[13:41] <ahhughez> I got these annoying dir's on my hdd... 3453907234239 and System Volume Information and RECYCLER are these left over windows things I can delete?
[13:41] <llutz_> GargantuaSauce: and ports, so what?
[13:41] <ikonia> Gentoo64: no there are not
[13:41] <wompy> Hi, I am using Ndiswrapper 1.56 with Ubuntu 10.10, I installed it over synaptic, the driver seems to work since I can find Wifis with iwlist. Nm-Applet shows me that Wifi is inactive, if I activate it, it switches over just vor a second it seems and is inactive after that again
[13:41] <ikonia> Gentoo64: sorry, not you
[13:41] <RaTTuS|BIG> ahhughez - sounds like windows files to me
[13:41] <ikonia> GargantuaSauce: please name a distro without a compiler installed and no package managment
[13:41] <lev_> freebsd seems a high level thing :(
[13:41] <luca> iceroot: where can i find the code i'm downloading??
[13:41] <iceroot> luca: in the directory you called "apt-get source"
[13:42] <Gentoo64> ikonia, there are no "distros" without them afaik
[13:42] <ikonia> Gentoo64: I know this, that's why I'm asking GargantuaSauce to justify what he's saying
[13:42] <lev_> I know that fedora and cent dont have gcc
[13:42] <ikonia> lev_: yes it does
[13:42] <iceroot> lev_: of course they have gcc
[13:42] <ikonia> I build packages for both which depend on gcc
[13:42] <Gentoo64> lev_, neither does ubuntu, but apt-get install them
[13:42] <GargantuaSauce> well the one i ran into was pfsense, I am pretty sure there are others
[13:42] <velcroshooz> i am getting X crashes in 11.10 on my laptop. does not drop me to terminal, switching vt's is not possible, a bunch of code outputs to the screen and I have to hard reset. xorg log shows knowing. anyone know whats going on or how i can better troubleshoot this?
[13:42] <llutz_> not by defualt, guys why do you think you cannot install additional stuff?
[13:42] <ikonia> GargantuaSauce: pfsense has a compiler
[13:43] <GargantuaSauce> maybe they smartened up since I used it then, w/e
[13:43] <lev_> yes,and they also dont have some promgramming style editor
[13:43] <iceroot> lev_: you have a ubuntu support question?
[13:43] <luca> iciceroot: i'm lookinf for that directory
[13:43] <Gentoo64> lev_, gentoo has one by default ofc, but binary distros dont need them (by default) so you choose to manually have it
[13:44] <luca> iceroot: is it in home??
[13:44] <iceroot> luca: where you called "apt-get source"
[13:44] <iceroot> luca: there is a dir with the packagename in it
[13:45] <wompy> I figured out with rfkill that there is a softblock for my wifi-connection..how can i unblock it? rfkill fails there
[13:45] <iceroot> luca: are you really really sure you want to learn programing and starting with the source-code of libreoffice? even the linux-kernel is easier
[13:45] <luca> iceroot: i don't have that directory
[13:46] <iceroot> luca: apt-get source vim  for example, after that is done use cd vim TAB
[13:46] <luca> iceroot: I'm not sure to start with it but it's the most common program I think
[13:47] <iceroot> luca: start with a book and /join ##c
[13:47] <iceroot> luca: the most common program on all linux-distros is "linux"
[13:47] <lev_> i think should start with the hello world piece:)
[13:47] <zetui> hi there
[13:48] <zetui> hell
[13:48] <zetui> hello there
[13:48] <zetui> anyone here ?
[13:48] <luca> iceroot: for you which is the best program for starting?
[13:48] <deej1976> !ask | zetui
[13:48] <iceroot> luca: hello world
[13:48] <zetui> welll
[13:48] <ubuntu_master> zdravím všechny
[13:48] <luca> iceroot: I have already written it
[13:49] <iceroot> luca: join ##c  this channel is for ubuntu support not for c support
[13:49] <zetui> i made a modification on /etc/network/interface file i don't remember what modification i h ave done ?
[13:49] <luca> iceroot: I mean a program which is running on ubuntu
[13:49] <zetui> how to check ?
[13:49] <zetui> i mean how to output the previous config ?
[13:49] <RaTTuS|BIG> zetui - use diff on the original file version - you made a backup right?
[13:49] <luca> iceroot: i know but the question is which program of ubuntu is better?
[13:50] <zetui> no backup
[13:50] <deej1976> zetui: Before modifiying files always backup "cp interface interface-TODAYDATE"
[13:50] <zetui> i allready modifiy
[13:50] <deej1976> paste your current /etc/network/interface in to pastebin.ubuntu.com
[13:50] <lev_> how to sync the time on the internet
[13:50] <iceroot> luca: no one, just dont start learning with programs like that
[13:51] <lev_> any command?
[13:51] <llutz_> zetui: if you don't have a backup how do you expect to see the differences?
[13:51] <deej1976> lev_: ntpdate ntp_server1 ntp_server2
[13:51] <lev_> tks
[13:51] <zetui> using diff we can't do anything w/o backup file ?
[13:51] <rypervenche> Hi all. I made put a VFAT partition and a LUKS partition on a USB drive today. However, I am unable to access the VFAT partition from Windows. Would this be because I made it the second partition? I'm pretty sure I did this on my last USB drive without any problem. Any ideas?
[13:51] <rypervenche> I used fdisk to create it.
[13:52] <llutz_> zetui: to see differences you need at least 2 different files
[13:52] <llutz_> fullmoon today?
[13:52] <zetui> and with time
[13:52] <zetui> timestamp
[13:52] <RaTTuS|BIG> rypervenche - windows will need the fat32 partition on a usb stick to be the 1st one
[13:52] <llutz_> !info etckeeper   | zetui you want to use something like this in future
[13:53] <luca> iceroot: why?
[13:53] <deej1976> zetui: Could always look up RCS
[13:53] <iceroot> luca: please use ##c
[13:53] <rypervenche> RaTTuS|BIG: Ok, thank you.
[13:53] <iceroot> luca: and start learning the basics of c there instead of reading source-code from big projects
[13:54] <zetui> ok
[13:54] <iceroot> or vim 7.3 which can undo changes even when the file is saved and closed
[13:54] <iceroot> !info vim
[13:54] <luca> iceroot: how can i enter in that channel?

[14:08] <AdhamSabry> hi everyone
[14:08] <unkr> brain: i had create the ad-hoc a month ago at that time it was normall    now i have updated several time no problem during updates but i m now unable to connect
[14:08] <AdhamSabry> after adding gnome 3 to software sources, I get an error when I try to update
[14:09] <AdhamSabry> first it asks for  partial upgrade, and when I click it, error occurs: Error authenticating some packages
[14:09] <deej1976> AdhamSabry: Which Ubuntu version?
[14:09] <AdhamSabry> 11.10
[14:09] <deej1976> !notunity | AdhamSabry
[14:10] <AdhamSabry> I've installed it long time ago, and did so many updates, but today after I though, did I add gnome 3 to the software sources, and when I checked, it wasn't there so I put it there
[14:10] <AdhamSabry> I did install them both deej1976 long time ago, and still using them so far till now
[14:10] <AdhamSabry> and I am using gnome 3 shell already by now
[14:11] <AdhamSabry> It was not possible to authenticate some packages. This may be a transient network problem. You may want to try again later. See below for a list of unauthenticated packages.

[14:22] <unkr> brain: one more thing sometimes my network manger applet crashed automatically   ?? what to do ?? if u can help on this one
[14:22] <brian> unkr: not sure what else you could do then. Have you tried creating a live 10.04 or 10.10 and see if you can get it work on those?
[14:22] <deej1976> gnome 3 is now part of ubuntu and will update with other packages
[14:22] <phlak_user> sergiubsd: 11.10 ?
[14:23] <deej1976> AdhamSabry: You will probably need a new gnome ppa for 11.10
[14:23] <sergiubsd> 10.04
[14:23] <AdhamSabry> okayz
[14:23] <sergiubsd> i only run LTS
[14:24] <AdhamSabry> can you please give them to me please deej1976
[14:24] <unkr> brain: i was able to connect by this also system also but not now
[14:24] <unkr> brain: i did tried with that i was prefectly fine

[14:25] <sven_> i'm using w3af, and whenever i start a scan the main windows becomes completely grey/unresponsive. also it complains about several plugins taking >5s - is that any normal?
[14:25] <phlak_user> sergiubsd: like this -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=705334
[14:25] <varikonniemi> hello, am i missing something here, or why cannot i find where to change themes and icons and such anymore?
[14:25] <compdoc> which OS?
[14:25] <varikonniemi> 11.10
[14:26] <phlak_user> varikonniemi: use gnome-tweak-tool
[14:26] <compdoc> theres only a couple of themes now
[14:26] <phlak_user> !info gnome-tweak-tool | varikonniemi
[14:26] <varikonniemi> phlak_user, yeah i was already installuing it, then it said it will pull in 80 megs of additional sheit
[14:27] <phlak_user> varikonniemi: itll pull gnome-shell also :)
[14:27] <varikonniemi> so i thought that there must be some sane way sans of installing half of another desktop environment
[14:27] <unkr> brain: it works now  via command line ?
[14:27] <Hanmac> question: where can i define the default file manager? it opens not the nautilus if i insert an usb drive
[14:27] <brian> unkr: you were able to get it to work via command line?
[14:27] <phlak_user> Hanmac: what does it open?
[14:27] <unkr> brain: thnxx i think the problem was with dhcp  when i give static ip it works
[14:27] <unkr> brain: ya
[14:28] <unkr> brain: but i m using static ip
[14:28] <Hanmac> some kind of Baobab
[14:28] <unkr> brain: i had create the ad-hoc  but still cannt connect with the ad-hoc created by other system
[14:28] <sergiubsd> i don't want a splash theme ! i just want to enable the framebuffer with a option like "vga=789". Idon't know where to put this option. when i was on gentoo i used to have a grub.conf file where i defined the kernel lines.
[14:29] <llutz_> sergiubsd: /etc/default/grub, run sudo update-grub after finishing your changes
[14:30] <unkr> brain: i had to stop network-manger then it works dont know why & how
[14:32] <brian> unkr: your guess is as good as mine. I came here to ask a question and saw yours and decided to see if I could help you. I don't work with wireless interfaces too often. I'm glad you were able to get it working. btw: it is "brian" and not "brain"
[14:34] <unkr> brian: oh ya i wish that was brain so that i can ask more question from you   LOL :)

[14:46] <carloss1> I just installed some software on wine but I can't find it anywhere with unity.  is there a place where I can find all installed wine software to launch?
[14:47] <Dark_Apostrophe> carloss1: Probably in .wine, though it's been years since I used wine
[14:47] <unkr> brian: there??
[14:47] <paulo_cv> hello
[14:47] <heko> hey all
[14:47] <heko> i m heko
[14:47] <carloss1> thanks, Dark_Apostrophe!
[14:48] <heko> fuck u ubuntu lovers
[14:48] <llutz_> dataworm_: try: grep -i touchpad /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[14:48] <paulo_cv> I installed wine a long time ago and removed it however I keep getting a Notepad entry in my context menu, any ideas on how to remove it?
[14:48] <Dark_Apostrophe> llutz_: That's for me? :)
[14:48] <llutz_> oops Dark_Apostrophe yes :)
[14:49] <Dark_Apostrophe> There is a lot of stuff there, but it doesn't look like it mentions the name of the module
[14:49] <Dark_Apostrophe> (also, as embarrassing as it is to ask, how do I scroll up within the terminal?)
[14:49] <llutz_> Dark_Apostrophe: shift-pgup
[14:49] <Dark_Apostrophe> ah, thanks :)
[14:50] <unkr> can any one tell me how to create dhcp server in ubuntu ??
[14:50] <Dark_Apostrophe> "evdev touchpad catchall"
[14:50] <Dark_Apostrophe> Is that it?
[14:50] <Dark_Apostrophe> oh, input driver "synaptics"
[14:50] <llutz_> dataworm_:  less /var/log/Xorg.0.log          look for LoadModule
[14:51] <llutz_> grmf, Dark_Apostrophe ^
[14:51] <Dark_Apostrophe> just did so
[14:51] <Dark_Apostrophe> loads both evdev and synaptics
[14:52] <Dark_Apostrophe> I'm a bit rusty (haven't used Linux full time for about 3 years.) I remember rmmod, but what's the command for loading modules again?
[14:52] <llutz_> Dark_Apostrophe: sudo modprobe
[14:52] <conntrack> apparently my daemon child lives
[14:52] <Dark_Apostrophe> ah, right, thanks :)
[14:53] <Dark_Apostrophe> hum
[14:53] <Dark_Apostrophe> neither evdev nor synaptics are in /proc/modules
[14:53] <Dark_Apostrophe> according to rmmod
[14:53] <Hanmac> does someone know where i can change my default file manager?
[14:53] <Dark_Apostrophe> Compiled-in drivers?
[14:53] <llutz_> Dark_Apostrophe: seem to be
[14:54] <mfauzirahman> #ubuntu-my
[14:54] <Dark_Apostrophe> llutz_: So what are my options when this fails? :/
[14:54] <Dark_Apostrophe> Reboot every time?

[14:55] <Dark_Apostrophe> Damn
[14:56] <eSoul> I seem to have a problem with the 11.10 server disc and the installer just told me the rsyslog package was corrupt.  Is this a known issue or do I maybe have faulty memory or a bad burn
[14:58] <Halabund> I have a (closed course) program that really doesn't play well with Unity.  A question mark appears in the launcher, titled "panel", and when alt-tabbing, the unity launcher, dash, panel, and one more window I don't know are all grouped under the same entry in addition to the window of this program.  How can I work around this?
[14:59] <auronandace> Halabund: what is the program?
[14:59] <Halabund> auronandace, Mathematica
[15:00] <Halabund> auronandace, it's Qt based.  If I force it to use the system Qt instead of its own, nothing changes.  (Well, I get the global menu if I do that, but that's all)
[15:00] <bonhoffer> i have a new z68AP gigabyte motherboard -- are there drivers for ubuntu?
[15:00] <chadi> my crop jobs do not work. how can I know what's wrong?
[15:00] <bonhoffer> for example, i can't get the graphics to work over very low res
[15:00] <bonhoffer> (using integrated graphics on motherboard)
[15:00] <chadi> I ran something that's */5
[15:00] <auronandace> Halabund: sorry i can't help, i was just curious (i don't use unity; more of an xfce guy)
[15:01] <Dark_Apostrophe> What's the unity keyboard shortcut for logging out?
[15:01] <urlin2u> Halabund, this page says fully tested to lucid what is your release that your using http://www.wolfram.com/mathematica/features/system-requirements.html#Linux
[15:02] <Halabund> urlin2u, Oneiric.  Lucid doesn't even have Unity.
[15:02] <mfauzirahman> anyone use google+ in ubuntu?
[15:02] <llutz_> chadi: 1st create a cron-job just like "touch /tmp/$(date)"  to make sure cron-jobs run at all
[15:03] <mfauzirahman> my ubuntu not detect camera in google+
[15:03] <urlin2u> Halabund, right well the page gives info on what is needed I assume you have looked through all of that.
[15:04] <mfauzirahman> ..........
[15:04] <paulo_cv> I discovered how to remove the notepad entry by editting the meminfo.cache files
[15:05] <llutz_> chadi: if that works, check your commands/scripts. best to use full pathes etc because cronjobs run in a limited environment
[15:05] <rasmusth> I just installed the newest ubuntu build and it seems like there is a ton of icons missing?
[15:05] <Halabund> urlin2u, it's only conflicting with Unity, otherwise it does work.  Except it's very inconvenient to switch between windows using the Unity interface ...
[15:05] <Dark_Apostrophe> What's the unity keyboard shortcut for logging out?
[15:05] <compdoc> rasmusth, do you use vnc?
[15:05] <rasmusth> no
[15:05] <compdoc> or unity 2d?
[15:05] <rasmusth> no idea what unity 2d is
[15:05] <onwart> I have difficulties when I try to upload files on a private tracker. My vuze tells my connection is firewalled even though I have disconnected disabled both my hardware and software firewall and enabled UPNP. Does Ubuntu by default uploading of files?
[15:05] <rasmusth> I just have to on my screen
[15:05] <conntrack> haha
[15:07] <onwart> EDIT: I have difficulties when I try to upload files on a private tracker. My vuze tells me my connection is firewalled even though I have disabled both my hardware and software firewall and enabled UPNP. Does Ubuntu by default prevent you from uploading of files?
[15:07] <chadi> llutz_: ok, touch works. I am using */5 * * * * /home/myuser/123/foo.sh
[15:07] <compdoc> rasmusth, do you mean the icons for some things are blank, or do you mean you arent seeing icons youre used to seeing?
[15:08] <auronandace> a picture is worth a thousand words...
[15:08] <llutz_> chadi: then check foo.sh, add some testing lines giving status-reports. check pathes etc.pp.
[15:10] <querier|2> hello there. how to resolve dependencies automatically, when apt-get does not do that? e.g. im trying to install ubiquity and there are unmet dependencies. ubuntu 11.10
[15:10] <ikonia> querier|2: apt-get will resolve deps if they are available
[15:11] <fan> hello
[15:11] <chadi> llutz_: thank you, that helped :)
[15:11] <querier|2> ikonia: well I tried resolvnig it one by one , it works and all dependency-packages are from the same source, but that takes me years.
[15:12] <ikonia> if you do apt-get package1 - if package1 depends on package2 and 3, apt-get will install packasge 2 and 3
[15:12] <Pici> ikonia: you should include 'install' there ;)
[15:12] <ikonia> Pici: yes, I was just using an example, but the correct command would be "sudo apt-get install package1"
[15:12] <E_Roc> Hey guys.
[15:13] <E_Roc> I just downloaded a .tar of the new kernel but idk how to install it.
[15:13] <ikonia> E_Roc: then don't
[15:13] <ikonia> E_Roc: why do you want a new kernel ?
[15:14] <E_Roc> Because my laptop has some problems and guys on the forums said to install a new kernel and it should fix some things
[15:14] <Dark_Apostrophe> How do I reset all touchpad settings to default? My touchpad has crapped out, won't work properly. A reboot didn't help.
[15:14] <ikonia> E_Roc: what is the problem
[15:15] <E_Roc> A few things actually, my mic doesn't work unless i change values of a node. And even then it sounds awful
[15:15] <bitshift> Is it possible to install a kernel which does not require the CMOV instruction in 11.10?
[15:15] <E_Roc>     Wireless (out of box)
[15:15] <E_Roc>     Suspend (out of box)
[15:15] <E_Roc>     Audio (kernel 3 + manual fix)
[15:15] <E_Roc>     Graphics (kernel 3 + edgers xorg)
[15:15] <E_Roc>     Brightness (acpi option in boot)
[15:15] <ikonia> ok - so why do you think a different kernel will fix that
[15:15] <E_Roc>     Battery life - around 5 hours
[15:15] <FloodBot1> E_Roc: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:16] <Dark_Apostrophe> Anyone?
[15:16] <bitshift> Because I can't even boot the installer
[15:16] <redmage> Hello all.
[15:17] <E_Roc> http://paste.ubuntu.com/732091/
[15:17] <E_Roc> Thats all the problems my laptop has and the recomended fixes
[15:17] <BluesKaj> BBL, stuff to do
[15:17] <ikonia> E_Roc: what version of ubuntu are you using
[15:18] <E_Roc> 11.10
[15:18] <dr_willis> id be overjoyed with 5 hr battery life.. :)
[15:18] <ikonia> E_Roc: ok, so that's already using the 3.0 kernel
[15:18] <ikonia> !info linux-image
[15:19] <E_Roc> ok.but what is the xorg edgers kernel they talk about?
[15:19] <rasmusth> Guys, I am wondering why I don't have any icons for half of ubuntu, any ideas? I just installed
[15:19] <redmage> Question for the group.  I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 on a Toshiba Satellite Pro 200.  I got the thing fixed and the tech guy, for reasons unknown to me, did a hard block on the wireless network card.  I.e. rfkill list shows a hard block on wlan0.  How do I unblock this?  It seems that FN+F8 doesn't work.
[15:19] <dr_willis> rasmusth:  clarify what you mean.
[15:20] <rasmusth> there are no icons, for System preferences
[15:20] <rasmusth> Terminal
[15:20] <rasmusth> and a ton of other stuff
[15:20] <rasmusth> in the left menu, that shows shortcuts to applications for instance
[15:20] <auronandace> E_Roc: xorg edgers is a ppa of xorg (not the kernel)
[15:20] <rasmusth> there are no icons for folders either
[15:20] <DJones> redmage: Does the laptop dual boot with windows? Sometimes if its switched off in windows, it won't show up in ubuntu
[15:20] <Guest17747> redmage: question: i shift my gnome classic on my desktop and the date and time is in the middle, how can i move it to the right side ?
[15:20] <MonkeyDust> !enter| rasmusth
[15:20] <rasmusth> they are just represented by a file icon that looks like a blank page
[15:20] <E_Roc> Ok, so how should I install that?
[15:20] <redmage> Guest17747:  I have no idea...:-)
[15:20] <rasmusth> MonkeyDust: do you have a solution?
[15:21] <MonkeyDust> rasmusth: maybe it's something in CCSM
[15:21] <Dark_Apostrophe> How do I reset all touchpad settings to default? My touchpad has crapped out, won't work properly. A reboot didn't help.
[15:21] <redmage> Also does anyone know if the fnfx software is still relevant? The last update seems to be from 2004.
[15:21] <compdoc> rasmusth, did you remove any softwares?
[15:22] <auronandace> E_Roc: i never recomend installing ppas
[15:22] <Guest39372> hello. Please, somebody know a chat for postgres database?
[15:22] <dr_willis> redmage:  never heard of fnfx.
[15:22] <E_Roc> Why?
[15:22] <MonkeyDust> Dark_Apostrophe: find gpointer something in the repos
[15:22] <llutz_> !alis | Guest39372
[15:22] <auronandace> !ppa | E_Roc
[15:22] <carloss> i'm trying to add my system monitor applet to the top panel using unity on 11.10.  alt+right click does nothing
[15:22] <carloss> am i missing  a package?
[15:23] <redmage> dr_willis:  I found reference to it on one of the Ubuntu forums.  Supposedly it enables the FN keys to work under Ubuntu
[15:23] <dr_willis> carloss:  theres various indicator-applets listed at the askubuntu.com site that have similer features.
[15:23] <E_Roc> ok thanks guys im going to try something
[15:23] <dr_willis> carloss:  the whole panel applet methodolgy is basically being phased out in perferance to 'indicator applets'
[15:23] <compdoc> rasmusth, I can tell you how I get my icons back
[15:24] <dayman_fighterof> trying to roll out a bash script that calls to other scripts using "xterm -e" but half the scripts don't execute till after the main terminal window is closed. help please.
[15:24] <carloss> dr_willis: okay.  i'll look into it
[15:24] <querier|2> ikonia: As I said, apt-get install package1 should install the others but it did not, although the single dependencies can be resolved manually.
[15:24] <elbow> hej, udało sie
[15:24] <Dark_Apostrophe> MonkeyDust: Thanks, trying :)
[15:24] <bitshift> what version of the kernel did 10.04.3 run?
[15:24] <elbow> swap sie montuje sam
[15:24] <elbow> bardzo dziekuje
[15:24] <Hanmac> is ruby1.9.3 is comming into ubuntu? it is in debian
[15:24] <DJones> !pl | elbow
[15:25] <dr_willis> Hanmac:  next release most likely. or use a ppa.
[15:25] <Hanmac> so i must wait until 12.04 or what do you mean?
[15:25] <dr_willis> !ppa | Hanmac
[15:25] <auronandace> !info linux lucid | bitshift
[15:25] <dr_willis> Hanmac:  theres always source...
[15:26] <redmage> So does anyone know how to do a hardware unblock on a wlan card in Ubuntu?
[15:26] <MonkeyDust> Hanmac: a PPA is maintained by one person out there, in the next ubuntu version, it may be included in the repos
[15:27] <vatzec> I am having problems connecting to the Internet from a WPA2 enterprise wireless network. I am connected to the network, but I can't connect to websites outside of it through, e.g., Firefox, but I can ping external servers. The only difference from normal behaviour in the output of `ping` are lines containing the words "New nexthop".
[15:27] <showstopper> why does my bootsplash missing? how can i bring it back? the ubuntu logo ?
[15:28] <auronandace> !blacklist | redmage
[15:28] <vatzec> ... and an IP address. Somenoe has suggested on a discussion board that this might be a suggestion from a server that is in my network to use a different route when connecting to some computer, which Linux doesn't respect, and Windows does.
[15:28] <DJones> redmage: Does the laptop dual boot with windows? Sometimes if its switched off/disabled in windows, it won't show up in ubuntu
[15:28] <Dark_Apostrophe> MonkeyDust: Didn't seem to help... Not even "disable touchpad" in that thing works. The touchpad seems to react to multiple fingers, not a single finger, and it's erratic
[15:28] <Dark_Apostrophe> Won't go vertically, either, just horizontally
[15:28] <vatzec> Do you have any ideas what causes this? This didn't happen on my Natty machine.
[15:28] <redmage> Djones:  Nope, it's a pure play linux system. I wiped Windows Vista off of it completely.
[15:28] <Dark_Apostrophe> That's why I want to reset it to default settings, figured something miht've gone wrong somewhere there
[15:29] <redmage> I've been trying to reach the tech but with no luck so far.
[15:29] <millen_> hello
[15:29] <LucaBiolcati> On C channel people think that studying the code of Ubuntu Programs is not a good exercise. What do you think about??
[15:29] <showstopper> or how can i change my boot splash  screen?
[15:30] <deej1976> !ot | LucaBiolcati:
[15:30] <DJones> redmage: Not sure how to re-enable it,  did the tech guy use windows on it, or was he using ubuntu anyway
[15:30] <Hanmac> the package is allready in debian https://launchpad.net/debian/+source/ruby1.9.1 so why i need an ppa to get it in ubuntu? i thought ubuntu updates more often then six month
[15:31] <Dark_Apostrophe> How do I reset all touchpad settings to default? My touchpad has crapped out, won't work properly. A reboot didn't help.
[15:31] <MonkeyDust> Hanmac: maybe because it is not good enough to be in teh repos
[15:31] <showstopper> noone knows how to change the boot splash?
[15:32] <Hanmac> its an offical release ... i think the packagars of ubuntu doesnt have the time yet to look after the package
[15:33] <showstopper> ubuntu  starts tasting bitter and bitter :( what is this i'm feeling :(
[15:33] <redmage> DJones:  I presume that he was using Ubuntu.  He didn't do much other than clean it up.  But he definitely changed something that I can't figure out how to reverse.
[15:33] <compdoc> showstopper, keep your tounge away from the computer
[15:34] <Myrtti> Hanmac: I don't know where you get your information from, but I can see that Ruby package fine in the latest Ubuntu package repositories
[15:34] <showstopper> and you've just added a sour taste :D
[15:34] <Myrtti> !info ruby1.9.1
[15:35] <showstopper> !
[15:35] <deej1976> !notunity | showstopper
[15:35] <Thelmaria> vatzec: Check your gateway is correct (route -r). If you've got a windows partition working, can check what its using and verify they're the same.
[15:36] <Hanmac> Myrtti: http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2011/10/31/ruby-1-9-3-p0-is-released/ there you can see its an official release from the ruby team
[15:36] <fahad_> anyone here with fedora?
[15:36] <Myrtti> fahad_: this is Ubuntu support channel...
[15:36] <Thelmaria> fahad_: Try #fedora.
[15:36] <MonkeyDust> fahad_: wrong channel, this is for ubuntu
[15:36] <Dark_Apostrophe> How do I reset all touchpad settings to default? My touchpad has crapped out, won't work properly. A reboot didn't help.
[15:36] <Myrtti> Hanmac: please note the date of that annoucment?
[15:36] <fahad_> sorry..............
[15:37] <DJones> redmage: Not something I've seen before, but have you tried "sudo rfkill unblock all" That may work
[15:37] <Hanmac> it is to new?
[15:37] <tdn> after upgrading to kubuntu 11.10, networkmanager does no longer automatically connect to wifi networks that I have configured. Also, it does not remember entered wifi passphrases. How to fix this?
[15:37] <llutz_> Dark_Apostrophe: look at ./.gconf/desktop/gnome/peripherals
[15:37] <fahad_> i have just a question......how can i mount and install an ISo of 4gb ????
[15:37] <Myrtti> Hanmac: it's after latest ubuntu was released.
[15:38] <Hanmac> yea ... but ubuntu does updates beween the big release cycles
[15:38] <riffautae> fahad_: from inside windows or from inside ubuntu?
[15:38] <RaTTuS|BIG> fahad_ use a dvd
[15:38] <pangolin> Hanmac: security and bug fixes, yes.
[15:38] <MonkeyDust> fahad_: try your.iso /media
[15:38] <fahad_> From ubuntu ?
[15:38] <Dark_Apostrophe> llutz_: Alright, so how do I reset all those config files to default? Is there an example somewhere in the documentation?
[15:38] <fahad_> fromubuntu
[15:38] <MonkeyDust> fahad_: try mount your.iso /media
[15:38] <Myrtti> Hanmac: security updates, bug fixes... someone may backport it, but it's not guaranteed
[15:38] <vatzec> Thelmaria: I think `route -r` isn't a valid command. :S
[15:38] <LogicallyDashing> fahad: from the command line, mount -o loop <file>.iso /some/directory/you/dont/use
[15:38] <vatzec> Thelmaria: "-r" doesn't seem to be a valid parameter of route.
[15:39] <llutz_> Dark_Apostrophe: idk, sry. just move away that file and try
[15:39] <fahad_> suppose i have a customized OS by remastersys......4gb....how can i install  it in my HDD ?
[15:39] <[Sanyi]> Thelmaria: or use furiusisomount
[15:39] <Thelmaria> vatzec: Drat, I meant -n.
[15:39] <Thelmaria> vatzec: Sorry.
[15:39] <Dark_Apostrophe> llutz_: alright, worth a try
[15:39] <MonkeyDust> fahad_: try unetbootin
[15:39] <LogicallyDashing> fahad_: you could use a virtual machine I suppose. check out qemu
[15:40] <vatzec> Thelmaria: :) OK.
[15:40] <fahad_> Monkeydust.....I have only 8gb flash drive.....can i install ???
[15:40] <vatzec> Thelmaria: So generally it's a routing issue, and I have to make my traffic go through the IP that I'm suggested by the results of PING?
[15:41] <MonkeyDust> fahad_: can't say, never installed a 4GB iso
[15:41] <MonkeyDust> a 4GB OS?
[15:42] <Thelmaria> vatzec: If you can ping the world, and have a reply, you've got a route to the world. I'd suggest it's a proxy / firewall issue, because ping traffic gets to the world but http doesn't. I am assuming you have a working, web-aware windows with enterprize wifi ?
[15:42] <rasmusth> compdoc no I did not remove anything

[15:44] <JoeGazz84> Hey guys, is there code available for ubottu's bantracker?
[15:45] <pangolin> JoeGazz84: I don't believe there is.
[15:45] <cannonball> I want to use an old busted-display laptop as a wireless bridge.  When setting up an interface in the Network Connections (Ubuntu 10.10), one of the options is "Shared with Other Computers".  Is that going to bridge the eth0 to wlan0 or is that going to use iptables and NAT (actually PAT) to share to the computers behind it?
[15:45] <MonkeyDust> JoeGazz84: it says: "behave, so you don't get banned"
[15:46] <julian__> how to move files by create date in a batch file
[15:46] <pangolin> JoeGazz84: might try asking in #ubuntu-bots-team
[15:46] <JoeGazz84> MonkeyDust: I didn't understand what you mean, I'm looking to use it on another bot.
[15:46] <morecheese> i accidentally hit Mod4(Windows)+M and now im in high contrast mode, how do i switch it off? google didn't help.
[15:46] <cannonball> I require bridging the connections because I'm putting a network printer behind it.  Just trying to figure out if I can do it point and click or if I need to script bridge creation and routing.

[15:50] <geboy> sorry, it might be out of ubuntu topic, but does anyone here have successfully made a clonezilla server on ubuntu 11.10? mine seem to keep stuck on loading client pc.
[15:50] <Dark_Apostrophe> llutz: Hum.. :/ I'm guessing this is system-wide, not user settings-based.
[15:50] <Thelmaria> conntrack: Congrats :)
[15:50] <conntrack> deej1976: But I hate going to bed when something is broken
[15:50] <Harzilein> hi
[15:51] <conntrack> Thelmaria: Thanks. Still got a way to go :-)
[15:51] <deej1976> conntrack: Yep known that feel
[15:51] <deej1976> feeling*
[15:51] <Harzilein> is there a machine readable mapping from distro names to versions, or do i need to scrape them from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases ?
[15:51] <conntrack> Thelmaria: Thanks. Still got a way to go :-)
[15:53] <Technicus> Hello . . . I have an install of 11.04 and 'nm-applet' is incapable of detecting the wireless network devices after recovering from sleep or hibernation until I reboot twice.  How can I diagnose and cure this malfunction?
[15:54] <rasmusth> how can I check if I am in 3d or 2d mode
[15:55] <Dark_Apostrophe> I'm on Ubuntu 11.10. My touchpad (awful Elantech POS) has gotten broken, for some reason it will only move horizontally, not vertically. I tried removing the user settings, but that didn't help. I'd like to reset the Xorg settings, but they're all spread over different fils, and I don't know which driver is being used (evdev or synaptics). Can anyone help me out?
[15:55] <Mongey> Hey, I rebooted my server, ubuntu server 11.10, and now I'm getting a black screen with a flashing  '_'  and all I can seemingly do is press ctrl+alt+del to reboot. Have tried holding shift to access grub, but that hasn't worked.
[15:57] <Nightmar_> hello, im installing ubuntu server lts, i choose LVM for the hard disk with ext4, and it get stuck trying to format
[15:57] <Nightmar_> at 33%
[15:57] <Nightmar_> what could be ?
[15:58] <RaTTuS|BIG> Nightmar_ -  tail -f /var/log/syslog
[15:58] <unkr> i m unable to ugrade to 11.10 can anyone help me ??
[15:58] <Nightmar_> how, im running the server installation disk
[15:59] <llutz_> Technicus: you could try to unload/reload wifi-modules when hibernating. look at /usr/lib/pm-utils/pm-functions
[15:59] <rasmusth> In proprietary drivers I click activate on a driver, then it installs
[15:59] <rasmusth> and proprietary drivers window is greyed out
[15:59] <rasmusth> still says it's inactive
[15:59] <rasmusth> still has the active button
[16:00] <LucaBiolcati> Dear friends could you explain the role of the directory ETC???
[16:00] <rasmusth> but it cannot be pressed
[16:00] <llutz_> !fhs  | LucaBiolcati
[16:00] <RaTTuS|BIG> Nightmar_ - ctrl-f1 or ctrl-alt-f1 [or f1-f7]
[16:02] <rasmusth> Does anybody know about the proprietary drivers? I cannot seem to activate graphics driver
[16:02] <new2linux> Hello ppl
[16:03] <deper29>  hey guys, I'm trying to install ubuntu 10.10 64 bit. When I go to install from the CD I get: [1.4429011] Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(1,0)
[16:03] <RaTTuS|BIG> deper29 - check your md5sum from the iso
[16:03] <LucaBiolcati> Dear friends in etc there is aapt directory what is the role of that directory? Do you think the source code is in that directory??
[16:04] <llutz_> LucaBiolcati: no it isn't. it holds apt-configs
[16:04] <Nightmar_> RaTTuS|BIG the last message of the syslog is partman mkefs 1.31.11
[16:04] <Nightmar_> 1.41.11
[16:04] <Nightmar_> and holds there
[16:04] <deper29> RaTTus|BIG: How do I do that? I'm a noob
[16:04] <new2linux> i am using ubuntu 11.10 on my lappy now i want to make a usb stick how do i go about it ..can any one help
[16:05] <deej1976> LucaBiolcati:  llutz_ !fhs link is worth a read
[16:05] <LucaBiolcati> llutz_ dear friend there is another directory inside apt called apt.conf.d do you think the code is there?
[16:05] <conntrack> bug bug bug
[16:06] <RaTTuS|BIG> deper29 - on booting the cd I think there is an option to check the install files ? , or md5sum -b file.iso - anbd check that from the ubuntu sort location
[16:06] <deej1976> LucaBiolcati: please read the link from !fhs
[16:06] <LucaBiolcati> which link?
[16:06] <llutz_> LucaBiolcati: stop your stupid "where is the code" questions. you have been told how to get source-codes. the distro-install contains nearly no sourcecode by default. check the links you have been given and read
[16:06] <deper29> RaTTuS|BIG: When I do the check files option I get the same thing
[16:06] <deej1976> !fhs
[16:06] <Dark_Apostrophe> I'm on Ubuntu 11.10. My touchpad (awful Elantech POS) has gotten broken, for some reason it will only move horizontally, not vertically.

[16:07] <deej1976> !repeat | Dark_Apostrophe
[16:07] <killswitchguy> LucaBiolcati, you can google most of the things you are answering
[16:07] <Technicus> llutz_: how do I unload/reload wifi-modules when hibernating?
[16:07] <RaTTuS|BIG> Nightmar_ - dunno - has it really stopped or is it doing stuff - or mae  a  smaller partition ...
[16:07] <Nightmar_> RaTTuS|BIG it's a 4TB partition
[16:07] <LucaBiolcati> llutz_ the code of LibreOffice I mean can you understand??
[16:07] <Dark_Apostrophe> deej1976: I am search on help.ubuntu.com, but I didn't repeat it quickly
[16:07] <Nightmar_> that's why it takes too long ?
[16:07] <Dark_Apostrophe> been 10-15 minutes
[16:07] <LucaBiolcati> I don't know where ubuntu saved that code source
[16:07] <llutz_> Technicus: check pm-utils for that, it should have hooks.
[16:08] <deej1976> Dark_Apostrophe: I've seen it a few times with no replies
[16:08] <RaTTuS|BIG> Nightmar_ - what filesystem ?
[16:08] <Nightmar_> RaTTuS|BIG Ext4 - Raid 10 - 4TB 7.2K
[16:08] <LucaBiolcati> why should it be a stupid question? If you know the answer tell me
[16:08] <RaTTuS|BIG> deper29 - may be worth buring the CD again
[16:08] <Technicus> llutz_: What are hooks?
[16:08] <llutz_> LucaBiolcati: trop trolling
[16:08] <deper29> kk
[16:08] <llutz_> stop
[16:08]  * RaTTuS|BIG goes for coffee - back in 20 or so
[16:08] <Dark_Apostrophe> deej1976: Well, this channel has an insane amount of people, and a line is bound to disappear from most people's screens into the backlog within a minute
[16:09] <killswitchguy> LucaBiolcati,  go to the offical page of the program whose source code you want
[16:09] <rasmusth> does anybody know how I can activate my graphics driver?
[16:09] <killswitchguy> rasmuth, what is your graphics card ?
[16:09] <rasmusth> it says in proprietary drivers that its active, but in system settings it says unknown
[16:09] <rasmusth> 9400M
[16:10] <killswitchguy> ati or nvidia?
[16:10] <RaTTuS|BIG> LucaBiolcati see http://www.libreoffice.org/download/
[16:10]  * RaTTuS|BIG really gone now
[16:10] <llutz_> Technicus: read pm-utils documentation about those "SUSPEND_MODULES" etc things
[16:10] <rasmusth> killswitchguy: nvidea
[16:11] <LucaBiolcati> killswitchguy: I used the command apt-get source libreoffice it has been saved somewhere but i don't find it if you know please tell me
[16:11] <new2linux>  I need a small favor ... I use ubuntu 11.10 on my laptop i kinda liked it and now i want to make a usb stick to install on my desktop computer ..how to i go about it... do i have download the whole thing again :-( or there is a way out :-)
[16:11] <deej1976> LucaBiolcati: One time only, sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev ; apt-get source vim ; ls ; cd vim-7.3.154+hg~74503f6ee649 ; ls
[16:12] <killswitchguy> http://www.libreoffice.org/download
[16:12] <killswitchguy> go there
[16:12] <killswitchguy> the source code is there for you to enjoy, you should google things first before asking here LucaBiolcati
[16:13] <Technicus> llutz_: Thanks, I'll check this out.
[16:13] <progre55> hi guys. I have a text file on a remote server with only 1G RAM, and the file is 1.2G large, and I need to edit a single line. Do not want to use "vim" for that. Any other alternatives?
[16:13] <progre55> I know the line number and all, if it helps
[16:13] <Nightmar_> how much time needs ext4 to format 4TB ?
[16:13] <EvilResistance> progre55:  out of curiosity, why would the amount of RAM on the remote system matter...?
[16:14] <deej1976> progre55: look into sed maybe
[16:14] <Thelmaria> new2linux: If you've still got the iso, you don't need to redownload, provided your desktop and laptop are the same kind of hardware etc. To install onto usb, check here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download for instructions
[16:14] <llutz_> Nightmar_: a few seconds
[16:14] <Nightmar_> llutz_ i got my installation stuck at 33%
[16:14] <llutz_> progre55: use sed
[16:14] <abstraktdokum> hi all
[16:14] <progre55> EvilResistance: because if you use vim, it loads the file into ram
[16:15] <dwarder> maple leaves in gimp doesn't look like it :)
[16:15] <EvilResistance> and this is why i dont use vim ;P
[16:15] <dwarder> maple leaves pattern
[16:15] <progre55> deej1976, llutz_: thanks, let me read the man for sed =)
[16:15] <LucaBiolcati> so the source code is simply in home directory
[16:15] <vatzec> Thelmaria: Enterprise wifi, yes. :) And yes, my friends' laptop, which are running Windows, do autoconfigure and work.
[16:16] <deej1976> LucaBiolcati: yes
[16:16] <abstraktdokum> anyone knows why i cant run this command: glxinfo | grep "direct rendering"
[16:16] <deej1976> LucaBiolcati: try it!
[16:16] <llutz_> progre55: sed -i '[linenumber]s/whattobereplaced/replacewith/' file
[16:16] <progre55> llutz_: awesome, thanks man, appreciate
[16:16] <killswitchguy> rasmuth: i have a trick that worked for me, try it once. Unplug your display cables from both the card and the monitor and replug them again.
[16:16] <deej1976> progre55: backup the file 1st
[16:17] <progre55> deej1976: for sure =)
[16:17] <dwarder> is that realy a maple leave? http://www.flamingtext.com/backgrounds/show.cgi?image=Maple_Leaves_tile.jpg
[16:18] <deej1976> dwarder: it bad web design :D
[16:18] <kostasa> how can I run a .exe file? can anyone share a link?
[16:18] <llutz_> progre55: use sed wihtout -i  to check what it would do
[16:18] <RaTTuS|BIG> dwarder not it's a leaf -
[16:18] <dwarder> deej1976: this pattern is from gimp
[16:18] <LucaBiolcati> deej1976: I did what you adviced to me: there are 7 directories and different files what is the file containing the source written in C?
[16:19] <dwarder> RaTTuS|BIG: well. yeah
[16:19] <deej1976> LucaBiolcati: try src
[16:19] <Dark_Apostrophe> llutz_: Sorry if I'm pestering you (tell me if I am), but do you have any idea how to reset touchpad setting system-wide?
[16:19] <dwarder> RaTTuS|BIG: but is that a maple leaf
[16:19] <progre55> llutz_: okay
[16:19] <Psycho> hi
[16:19] <llutz_> Dark_Apostrophe: not at all, no. sorry
[16:19] <RaTTuS|BIG> dwarder we dont care in this channel
[16:20] <dp> occasionally, when I press a keyboard command (not sure which one), I see a flash back to the plymouth screen, but I'm not sure why; I've got a video of it happening here: http://youtu.be/dEia9xAE3WQ
[16:20] <Psycho> i'd need advice how to start a shell script only after x11 has started
[16:20] <abstraktdokum> anyone knows why i cant run this command: glxinfo | grep "direct rendering"
[16:20] <pangolin> dwarder: definitely not a maple leaf
[16:20] <dp> anyone have suggestions on what to look for to fix?
[16:21] <Psycho> i'd need advice how to start a shell script only after x11 has started
[16:21] <Nightmar_> ok it did take 30 minutes to format 4TB
[16:21] <rasmusth> how do I enable gfx?
[16:21] <LucaBiolcati> deej1976: in src there are 9 directories and a lot of file .h .bat and also .c it's not so easy to understand these files
[16:21] <RaTTuS|BIG> Psycho - see startup applications
[16:21] <llutz_> abstraktdokum: you can't run because?
[16:21] <llutz_> abstraktdokum: any error?
[16:21] <llutz_> !ot | LucaBiolcati
[16:21] <dwarder> pangolin: that is great to hear :)
[16:21] <deej1976> LucaBiolcati: You should start googling for a guide to software development with C
[16:22] <os_> hi
[16:22] <Psycho> the script is placed in init.d, but as it starts a gui, I get a x11 variable not set on session start
[16:22] <llutz_> LucaBiolcati: /join ##c
[16:22] <os_> how do i install KQEMU?
[16:22] <genii-around> !autostart
[16:22] <vatzec> Thelmaria: I can't add anything to the route table. It says "SIOCADDRT: Operation not permitted" when running as a user, and "SIOCADDRT: No such process", when trying as root. I'm trying this command: route add default gw <ipAddressHere>.
[16:22] <Psycho> ok, thank you, gonna have a look to what you said
[16:23] <Thelmaria> vatzec: Is your default gateway wrong - that is, different to that given to the windows one?
[16:23] <vatzec> Thelmaria: I don't know, I want to sent up a route to all external servers through the IP address PING returns in the "New nexthop" lines. What should I do?
[16:23] <vatzec> s/sent up/set up/
[16:24] <Thelmaria> vatzec: ping 8.8.8.8 and tell me if you get a reply.
[16:24] <vatzec> Thelmaria: I do.
[16:24] <vatzec> I can even ping with hostnames, I just can't connect to them through e.g. a web browser or an e-mail client.
[16:24] <vatzec> Plus, I get that extra ping line.
[16:24] <vatzec> With every ping.
[16:25] <unkr> hey can any one help me my network-manger applet crashed regularly ???
[16:26] <paulo_cv> I hated quassel
[16:26] <dp> anyone? this is becoming a pretty big issue for me :(
[16:27] <RaTTuS|BIG> dp wat is your problem
[16:27] <rasmusth> How can I enable 3D in Ubuntu 10.10
[16:27] <Thelmaria> vatzec: Well, if you've gotten a gateway which works, I'd be thinking your routes  are fine. I'm afraid I can't help you much more then that - you've got a working connection to the world, you just don't have it open for all protocols, and that suggests firewall / proxy settings issue.

[16:28] <RaTTuS|BIG> dp - is that a screen saver- have you got it binded to a key ?
[16:28] <dp> RaTTuS|BIG: that is not; that's plymouth jumping in for some reason

[16:35] <kmels> I'm trying to dist-upgrade, apt-get fails with this message http://pastebin.com/9AyhNpQi what does it mean? and is there a way to fix it?
[16:35] <deej1976> os_: kqemu is not in the default repo, you would need to download an install yourself

[16:36] <deper29> hey, I am trying to install an Nvidia driver. When I go to install it, I get a window that says I appear to be running an X server and to exit X before installing. How do I do that?
[16:36] <deej1976> os_: ppa https://launchpad.net/~dnjl/+archive/virtualization
[16:36] <RaTTuS|BIG> kmels  - save your data off somewhere and install from scratch
[16:36] <os_> deej1976, thanks!
[16:37] <kmels> infid, you can install it with apt-get, the package name is 'sun-java6-jdk' but you'll have to choose which one will be your default.
[16:37] <moes> Lucid 10.04..Why are we not getting the newer versions of Firefox in synaptic ???
[16:38] <nkj> hey guys
[16:38] <nkj> i recently upgraded my ubuntu server from 10.04 to 11.10
[16:38] <gp2mv3> ubuntu server ?!...
[16:38] <[Sanyi]> zomg
[16:38] <Jordan_U> deper29: Use the "Additional Drivers" tool to install Nvidia drivers.
[16:38] <[Sanyi]> :D
[16:38] <deej1976> moes: https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable?field.series_filter=lucid
[16:38] <nkj> gp2mv3: yeah, a server
[16:39] <nkj> gp2mv3: is that bad?
[16:39] <gp2mv3> nkj: i'm not convincted by ubuntu server, i prefere debian or centOS on my servers but it's not bad ;)
[16:40] <deper29> Jordan_U: I had to download a .run file to do this. It doesn't appear in the additional drivers
[16:40] <nkj> gp2mv3: yes, I used to use both of those, but lately I find that ubuntu being used as a server isn't really so bad, and a lot of the depenency problems I used to run into aren't as frequent.
[16:40] <dabukalam> just installed tftpd-hpa, and it's not in /etc/init.d/ for some frustrating reason
[16:41] <Jordan_U> deper29: If it's not appearing in Additional Drivers there is likely a reason. What hardware do you have? Are you using a virtual machine? Is it Nvidia Optimus?
[16:41] <nkj> gp2mv3: this is a development server, so we need to be able to install new packages easily without dependency worries... but for single purpose servers I agree something like centos/debian with a locked down set of dependencies specific for the app makes a lot of sense.
[16:42] <rasmusth> I just pressed the sound icon
[16:42] <nkj> anyway - my problem is that, I did a dist-upgrade from 10.04 to 11.10 and now it seems udev and perl-base are having problems.
[16:42] <rasmusth> with the cross over it
[16:42] <moes> deej1976, Why do we have to use ppa ??
[16:42] <rasmusth> and now all interface disappeared
[16:42] <gp2mv3> nkj, yes ubuntu on a prod server, it's a suicide though :D
[16:42] <deper29> my card is an Nvidia GeForce
[16:42] <rasmusth> how do I get it back?
[16:42] <gp2mv3> but, who can help me with my not detected trackpad ?
[16:42] <nkj> i managed to get apt and dpkg to stop complaining about them by downloading the .deb's and doing a --reinstall
[16:42] <deej1976> It's an easy way of get the stable firefox from Mozilla
[16:42] <nkj> but when i run perlapps libperl segfaults.
[16:43] <nkj> and udev creates some dmesg errors
[16:43] <gp2mv3> nkj, did you z pkg-reconfig ?
[16:44] <gp2mv3> *a dpkg-reconfig --all
[16:44] <nkj> gop
[16:44] <rasmusth> The sound icon on the top bar, it has a cross over it, because sound driver isnt properly installed I guess. When I press it the entire interface disappears. Why is this??
[16:45] <nkj> gp2mv3: no, trying that out now.

[16:51] <nkj> gp2mv3: probably because udev isn't properly initializing the dev filesystem during boot

[17:52] <ahead> How do I restart the light dm ?
[17:52] <sivakumar> DasEi, it list just expunged,files, list
[17:52] <brian> I am trying to get a DoD CAC to work with firefox but everytime I insert the card with Firefox open it crashes. If I have the card inserted Firefox will not open. I am using 11.10 and Firefox 7.0.1. Any ideas? (I've followed every tutorial I can find on google)
[17:52] <barcef> I need help. Just installed 11.04 and updated to most recent kernel.. Wireless says greyed out and says"wreless is disabled by hardware switch. I have an HP mini 110.
[17:52] <DasEi> ahead: sudo service ldm start/stop
[17:52] <sivakumar> DasEi, but my desktop folder contains different name not these
[17:52] <DasEi> sivakumar: ls ?
[17:53] <riffautae> brian: does 'dmesg | tail' show anything?
[17:53] <lucas71> paulo_cv, I have done what I wanted, thx
[17:53] <riffautae> brian: related. also see if firefox has a log
[17:53] <DasEi> sivakumar: where do you get a filelist ? on ls in Trash ?
[17:53] <sivakumar> DasEi, no after hitting ls command only it show the above files only
[17:53] <helo> Younder: i'm not being naive... the important part is "normal distribution channels"
[17:54] <DasEi> sivakumar: sudo updatedb   finished ?
[17:54] <sivakumar> DaEsi
[17:55] <sivakumar> DaEi yes
[17:55] <helo> Younder: obviously if someone picks a CD up off the sidewalk and uses it to install onto their machine, there are no guarantees
[17:55] <DasEi> sivakumar: remember first chars of a file being on your desk before ?
[17:55] <brian> riffautae: "dmesg | tail" does show the usb device ready (card isn't inserted due to my irc client being Firefox). where can I find a log for Firefox?
[17:55] <Younder> Ikonia: please stop encuraging people to distribute modified ubuntu CD's
[17:55] <sivakumar> DasEi, journal is one my folder name
[17:55] <ikonia> Younder: I'm not, he didn't say he wanted to distribute anything - he said he wanted to modify the ISO which he can do - it's open
[17:55] <rizo> i would like to output com port data in hex format. "cat /dev/ttyS0" works fine for ascii. I tried "cat /dev/ttyS0 | od -tx1" but i get no output on the screen. Any idea why?
[17:55] <ikonia> Younder: users will know it's not a stock CD as the md5sum will be different, so again - please stop giving out nonsense information.,
[17:55] <riffautae> brian: pidgin also works as an irc client. and hmm let me see
[17:55] <DasEi> sivakumar: locate journal
[17:55] <philsf> hi, my clock disappeared from unity (I'm using Ubuntu 11.10). How can I re-enable it?
[17:56] <c0stre> DasEi, I will try and run it without the battery connected. It seems to have helped others with dodgy laptops
[17:56] <helo> Younder: you're doing it wrong... the knowledge is out there, and people will modify cds for whatever purpose they want. all you can do is encourage people to obtain their installation media through trusted channels.
[17:56] <maxx878> hi
[17:56] <Younder> ikonia, users don't even know what a md5 sum is..
[17:56] <boson12> Searching in "Get Software" keeps on going without ever outputting any software list and therefore, it does not let me install a software
[17:57] <sivakumar> DasEi, it displays no of files
[17:57] <ikonia> Younder: these cd's are not on the official channels/links so it is not a risk
[17:57] <graphics> +i
[17:57] <boson12> Searching in "Get Software" keeps on going without ever outputting any software list and therefore, it does not let me install a software. How may I solve this issue?
[17:57] <MonkeyDust> Younder: if people know how to modify a cd, they also know what md5 is
[17:57] <DasEi> sivakumar: a plain filename from desktop ?
[17:57] <panfist> my motherboard recently died for an am2+ CPU. i always had problems with the graphics (integrated radeon). i was wondering if anyone could recommend a replacement motherboard that would work more smoothly with ubuntu
[17:57] <helo> Younder: you seem to be under the impression that it's ok to install ubuntu off of a cd you obtained from a stranger, and that we must prevent people from making modified cds to keep it that way
[17:57] <DasEi> sivakumar: least a special filetype ?
[17:57] <sivakumar> DasEi,  how to find which file
[17:58] <boson12> Searching in "Get Software" keeps on going without ever outputting any software list and therefore, it does not let me install a software. How may I solve this issue?
[17:58] <DasEi> sivakumar: do you remember a filename / special extension from your deleted desk ??
[17:58] <Younder> MonkeyDust, of cource, my worry is Ubuntu distributions with malware. The end installer doesn't
[17:58] <MonkeyDust> Younder: that does not exist
[17:58] <maxx878> panfist, sorry to hear that if you really want to..google for hcl list linux distros etc..
[17:59] <boson12> help with "Get Software" please
[17:59] <DasEi> !hcl > panfist
[17:59] <sivakumar> DasEi, yes in journal folder it contains journal.pdf file
[17:59] <Younder> MonkeyDust, I wish.. I had to fix a network last week
[17:59] <DasEi> sivakumar: locate journal.pdf
[18:00] <DasEi> ?
[18:00] <sivakumar> DasEi, ok it displays a path
[18:00] <sivakumar> /home/sivakumar/.local/share/Trash/files/journal/journal.pdf
[18:00] <sivakumar> DasEi, /home/sivakumar/.local/share/Trash/files/journal/journal.pdf
[18:00] <DasEi> yeeehah
[18:00] <AbuMaia> I have a text file with three lines. First line is blank, second and third lines only have a two-digit number. I need to get the second line and third line read into a script variable as a time, with a ":" between each number. How can I do this?
[18:01] <sivakumar> DasEi, it is the path it displayed in terminal.....now what i have to do next
[18:01] <panfist> thanks
[18:02] <riffautae> brian: hm i cant find any information about firefox having a log file...
[18:02] <DasEi> sivakumar: rsync -Pru /home/sivakumar/.local/share/Trash/  ~/Desktop  ( whatever else was in trash will come back , too) and WAIT, before do a :
[18:02] <DasEi> df -h
[18:02] <AbuMaia> I have tried sed -n '2p' file ":" sed -n '3p' file but the script didn't like that
[18:02] <DasEi> enough space ?
[18:02] <OliveGreen> Hi all.
[18:02] <tsaknorris> hmm i did with chroot new grub.cfg file and with gparted change my /dev/sda5 flag to be boot, but still it doesnt find my grub :/
[18:02] <maxx878> hi OliveGreen
[18:02] <sivakumar> DasEi, i am not clear please say it again
[18:03] <OliveGreen> I have just started using Ubuntu 11.10, and would like to replace Unity with Gnome Shell. How do I do that?
[18:03] <DasEi> sivakumar: df -h , enough free disk space ? (said sth. about 24 gb)
[18:03] <rizo> i would like to output com port data in hex format. "cat /dev/ttyS0" works fine for ascii. I tried "cat /dev/ttyS0 | od -tx1" but i get no output on the screen. Any idea why?
[18:04] <trism> AbuMaia: TIMEVAR="$(sed -n 2p file):$(sed -n 3p file)"; seems to work here
[18:04] <DasEi> sivakumar: are there 24g free in root, df -h tells you
[18:04] <LucaBiolcati> Can you install LAPACK on Ubuntu? Do you know it's built with Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms?
[18:04] <sivakumar> DasEi,  it is working thank u
[18:05] <DasEi> !yay
[18:05] <AbuMaia> trism: thanks, that should do it. I was trying to get the two seds into one $
[18:05] <DasEi> sivakumar: are you syncing back now ?
[18:05] <sivakumar> DasEi, yes super
[18:06] <DasEi> fine, have fun
[18:07] <maxx878> OliveGreen, default 11.10 is gnome if u wish to change to kde or xfce
[18:07] <OliveGreen> maxx878, I would like to have Gnome Shell as my default interface instead of Unity, how do I do that?
[18:08] <kneeki> maxx878: Select Gnome instead of Unity during login.
[18:09] <DasEi> !nounity | OliveGreen
[18:09] <bobweaver> Hello there ubuntu peoples I have a very simple question. where can you find out before hand what is up and comming for the next release of ubuntu. Ie changing perl from 5.10 to 5.12
[18:10] <avernos> !unity
[18:10] <OliveGreen> kneeki, I'm not talking about the classic Gnome interface. I'm talking about Gnome Shell, the Unit-like interface (the one with the "Activities" button on the top left corner?)
[18:10] <iceroot> bobweaver: #ubuntu+1, looking at packages.ubuntu.org, read release-notes
[18:10] <maxx878> OliveGreen, i know what the problem is switch to kde i am using it works fine.
[18:10] <DasEi> OliveGreen: apart from that, can also use other wm's like xubuntu or lubuntu
[18:11] <iceroot> bobweaver: but makes only sense after the feature-freeze (which is in 2012 if i am correct)
[18:11] <kneeki> OliveGreen: I'm using Gnome3 instead of Unity. I believe that's what you're referring to right?
[18:11] <avernos> i cant get to gnome2 with 11.10..
[18:11] <ocmsRzr> hi, I'm trying to use redshift to change the color profile for multiple monitors,, but it expects randr to have multiple screens.  The output of randr only shows one screen. How do I force randr to use two screens?
[18:11] <OliveGreen> kneeki, umm.. yeah.  I guess that's it. :)
[18:11] <bobweaver> thanks iceroot
[18:11] <iceroot> bobweaver: packages.ubuntu.com of course instead of org
[18:12] <LucaBiolcati> Dear friens how can I add blas library and lapack library on octave?
[18:12] <riffautae> ocmsRzr: are you using nvidia twin view or xinrama?
[18:12] <tsaknorris> it seems grub made correct .cfg file, but something is preventing start grub.  i have windows 7 also so its maybe that windows bootloader hmm
[18:12] <rasmusth> guys when I start my ubuntu I see only the background and the mouse, any ideas?
[18:12] <avernos> how did you get gnome3 instead unity?
[18:12] <bobweaver> The reason I ask is I have about 4 years worth of scripts that I have and when something changes like that ....
[18:12] <bobweaver> but thanks dude you are awesome
[18:12] <ocmsRzr> I'm not sure how I would know. I just plugged in the monitor and it "just worked"
[18:12] <millen_> what should be a command to run compiz-configmanager trough terminal
[18:12] <ocmsRzr> I don't have an nvidia card
[18:12] <DasEi> avernos: can do it on your own risk, see:
[18:12] <DasEi> !gnome3
[18:12] <LucaBiolcati> avernos: In ubuntu 11.10 you use gnome 3 and unity together
[18:12] <OliveGreen> kneeki, It's weird coz sometimes it's called Gnome Shell, but some other times it's called Gnome3. Is it the same thing?
[18:13] <rasmusth> I run 11.10
[18:13] <rasmusth> guys when I start my ubuntu I see only the background and the mouse, any ideas?
[18:13] <kneeki> OliveGreen: Yeah, I believe so. Gnome3 is just the project name.
[18:13] <kneeki> OliveGreen: The Shell is the "interface" or GUI; unless I'm mistaken.
[18:13] <Simpson_2> hi since a few days I have msn connection issues on empathy, are there known issues ?
[18:13] <philsf> hi, my clock disappeared from unity (I'm using Ubuntu 11.10). How can I re-enable it?
[18:13] <OliveGreen> kneeki, I see. So, how do I make it default (instead of Unity)?
[18:14] <riffautae> rasmusth: do you get to a login screen or does it happen before then?
[18:14] <DasEi> OliveGreen: no, it's like the underlayer of unity is still gdm, but it's not the new gnome3 desk
[18:14] <kneeki> OliveGreen: When you log in (typing in your password) there should be a cog looking configure button. Click that, it's a dropdown.
[18:14] <ocmsRzr> riffautae: I'm pretty sure its xinerama, but it was all plug and play
[18:14] <rasmusth> riffautae: no I have auto-login enabled
[18:14] <OliveGreen> kneeki, I see.
[18:14] <kneeki> OliveGreen: If Gnome is installed, it should be in the list. By deafult it came with Ubuntu 11.10
[18:14] <spireal> bonsoir
[18:15] <OliveGreen> Okay. Thanks. :-)
[18:15] <DasEi> OliveGreen: classic option might be there, which leads to gnome2 then
[18:15] <riffautae> ocmsRzr: xinerama works by only having one screen and using some weird stuff to tell apps, try disabling that and then xrandr should take over
[18:15] <millen_> anyone can help me to run compiz-manager trough terminal ?
[18:16] <bubu111> ciao
[18:16] <rasmusth> anyone can help me get my computer working again?
[18:16] <kneeki> millen_: ccsm
[18:16] <ocmsRzr> riffautae: how, and when I do will I have to do anything else to get the screens to work?
[18:16] <rasmusth> I get only background and mouse
[18:16] <maxx878> ask ! millen_
[18:16] <riffautae> rasmusth: disable auto login and see if the sessions drop down has an option for an alt desktop environment
[18:16] <bubu111> !list
[18:16] <millen_> kneeki, thanks a lot
[18:17] <kneeki> np
[18:17] <rasmusth> riffautae: how do I disable that?
[18:17] <riffautae> ocmsRzr: it *should*. especially if you are on intel or other open source video card drivers
[18:17] <rasmusth> I have nothing
[18:17] <bubu111> !list
[18:17] <ocmsRzr> riffautae: Its an intel card
[18:17] <millen_> I shut down the unuty plug in and now do not have any panels do you have any idea how to manage a panels ?
[18:18] <millen_> in Ununtu 11.10
[18:18] <millen_> Ubuntu*
[18:18] <bubu111> ciao
[18:19] <millen_> maxx878, Do you know how to start gnome panel. I have written in a terminal: gnome-panel, but when I close the terminal the panels are gone .
[18:19] <velcroshooz> are there known issues wtih intel gfx and 11.10? been having quite a few X crashes, xorg log shows nothing.
[18:19] <riffautae> ocmsRzr: yea it should use xrandr by default if you dont tell it to use xinerama
[18:19] <riffautae> ocmsRzr: and it should work
[18:19] <Gentoo64> why do people keep saying the same thing... "ciao... !list"
[18:20] <MonkeyDust> for some reason i can no longer ftp or sftp to my remote pc, can that be due to some key, like with ssh?
[18:20] <admiralvorian> I've got some broken ppa repositories (i get a 404 when I do apt-get update) how do I remove them? ppa-purge doesn't seem to work
[18:21] <Big> hello, I have installed ubuntu-desktop on one test machine that i can access only via ssh, i was wondering how can i enable remote connections from the terminal to be able to access it using remote desktop connection "Vinagre" ?
[18:21] <rumpe1> MonkeyDust, ftp uses no encryption
[18:21] <riffautae> rasmusth: hit control-alt-f2 and log in. then nano /etc/gdm/custom.conf and set AutomaticLoginEnable to false. save and quit nano. type sudo reboot
[18:22] <riffautae> rasmusth: sorry sudo nano *that file i said*
[18:22] <rasmusth> ok riffautae
[18:22] <maxx878> millen_, gnome-gdm
[18:22] <rasmusth> I tried booting in recovery mode
[18:22] <rasmusth> that works
[18:22] <rasmusth> :s
[18:22] <millen__> maxx878, thanks
[18:23] <maxx878> nature call :))
[18:23] <n0yd> Hey guys
[18:23] <Joyhn> Hello! I'm trying to find a guide on how to install windows on an external drive from Ubuntu. I've seen tutorials on how to do it from Windows os but haven't found any guides on how to do it from Ubuntu. Any advice? Here's how to do it on windows: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwX9cmJ8BoM
[18:23] <n0yd> I'm just a bit confused, long time linux user, havent used Ubuntu in ages though....
[18:23] <riffautae> rasmusth: you have access to a gui? skip the control-alt stuf and just 'gksudo gedit *that file*' in a terminal and do the editing and reboot normally
[18:23] <maxx878> n0yd, 10000000000000000yrs :))
[18:23] <semitones> I need to find a file called "teacooker" somewhere in my root filesystem so I can install it. Should I use "find teacooker" or something else?
[18:24] <millen__> maxx878, gnome-gdm : the command was no found
[18:24] <Gentoo64> n0yd: what are you confused about
[18:24] <semitones> I installed it with a .deb, but I don't know where the file went to.
[18:24] <Camulus> I am trying to get a DoD CAC to work with Ubuntu 11.10 and Firefox 7.0.1. I have the card reader installed and "Pcsc_scan" will show the reader and the card but when I try to open Firefox with the card inserted it will not open. Alternatively, if Firefox is open and I insert the card, Firefox will crash and not restart until the card is removed.
[18:24] <Gentoo64> semitones: find / -name *teacooker*
[18:24] <MonkeyDust> semitones: type apt-cache policy teacooker
[18:24] <n0yd> Im running 11.10, and I wanted to get back old classic gnome, so i installed gnome-session-fallback.  But the panels and such arent correct.  The look kinda like regular old gnome, but im missing some of the menus at the top
[18:24] <maxx878> millen_, let me work on it then
[18:24] <mikunos> hi guys I need a suggestion about a pcmcia video adapter for a multimonitor setup
[18:24] <mikunos> any idea?
[18:24] <n0yd> Any ideas?
[18:24] <rasmusth> riffautae: done
[18:24] <semitones> thank you Gentoo64, MonkeyDust
[18:24] <Gentoo64> n0yd: its gnome 3 fallback, not gnome 2.. thats why
[18:25] <n0yd> Gentoo64: gotcha. how do i acquire gnome2?
[18:25] <sddsdsds> hello
[18:25] <Gentoo64> n0yd: you cant easily
[18:25] <sddsdsds> wassap people
[18:25] <Gentoo64> n0yd: gnome 2 is gone and gnome 3 has taken over now
[18:25] <tMH-> .
[18:25] <Gentoo64> n0yd: or use a different de
[18:25] <n0yd> omfg
[18:25] <riffautae> rasmusth: ok so auto login should be disabled and you should get a login screen now. see if one of the other options in the session drop down works
[18:25] <n0yd> wow
[18:25] <n0yd> thats lame as shit
[18:25] <Gentoo64> n0yd: try xfce with 2 panels...
[18:25] <maxx878> millen_, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/restart-ubuntu-gnome-session-without-rebooting.html
[18:25] <n0yd> Guess im going back to xfce
[18:26] <Gentoo64> n0yd: yeah a lot of people like gnome 2, but thats the way it is now
[18:26] <n0yd> And just use my Arch box if i want gnome2
[18:26] <riffautae> n0yd: install gnome-panel and use the session drop down to select it i think will pretend you are in g2
[18:26] <Big> not possible to enable remote connections remotely ?
[18:26] <millen__> maxx878, thanks
[18:26] <Raweed> new to ubuntu was wondering if compiz is having issues with unity shell 11.10 or if its safe to use
[18:26] <MonkeyDust> n0yd: many people do the same
[18:26] <Gentoo64> n0yd: arch has had gnome 3 for over  ayear now....
[18:26] <maxx878> millen_, work it out
[18:27] <Gentoo64> n0yd: unless you like constantly having to block new packages i would use gnome 3 or something else
[18:27] <rasmusth> riffautae:  ok
[18:27] <n0yd> Gentoo64: i know it has, but my boxen still has gnome2 installed. i never upgraded
[18:27] <rasmusth> I'm on it
[18:27] <tash> is there some way to join an ubuntu server to a windows workgroup?  Without a local dns resolver, I'm just wondering how a Windows machine could ping the hostname of the ubuntu server without a hosts entry on the windows machine.
[18:27] <Gentoo64> n0yd: xfce with 2 panels is similar to gnome 2 (a bit) at least that way you can upgrade as usual
[18:28] <n0yd> gnome is rubbish nowadays.  Im an old school kinda guy.  I used to run xfce all the time until I started using fluxbox for awhile
[18:28] <Gentoo64> n0yd: so whats the problem :s
[18:28] <n0yd> 11.04 let me run gnome2 iirc
[18:28] <Gentoo64> you can use fluxbox or whateve ryou want
[18:28] <riffautae> n0yd: gnome2 is depreciated
[18:28] <n0yd> riffautae: no crap
[18:28] <Gentoo64> n0yd: 11.04 was gnome 2
[18:28] <Gentoo64> thats why
[18:28] <EvilResistance> be civil people.
[18:28] <tsaknorris> hmm ok i try to use grub-install after chroot
[18:29] <n0yd> gentoo64 right. with the unity crap ontop
[18:29] <Gentoo64> n0yd: yeah but it has classic mode
[18:29] <MonkeyDust> n0yd: welcome to the new generation ;)
[18:29] <n0yd> Im not building this box for me, its for another family member new to Linux
[18:29] <Gentoo64> n0yd: and they hate the new look?
[18:29] <n0yd> MonkeyDust: Ratpoison FTW
[18:29] <n0yd> Gentoo64: i donno yet :P But I do ;)
[18:30] <Gentoo64> n0yd: no need to rant then :) if you dont use it...
[18:30] <Gentoo64> id imageine the new look would be better for a new user
[18:30] <maxx878> Gentoo64, are you in gentoo
[18:30] <Gentoo64> maxx878: #gentoo ?
[18:30] <n0yd> Well, if I wanted something so basic, I wouldve installed OSX86 lol jk
[18:31] <maxx878> Gentoo64, i am not too in ubuntu
[18:31] <sd> hello
[18:31] <Gentoo64> ?
[18:31] <Gentoo64> maxx878: you dont have to use ubuntu to join this room
[18:32] <sd> unity or gnome shell which one do you prefer
[18:32] <maxx878> :)) thanks to be here..
[18:32] <dtriley4_> Anyone familiar with an ubuntu 11.04 mouse left click stuck bug?
[18:32] <paulo_cv> gnome-shell for sure
[18:32] <Gentoo64> sd: theyre similar... id say gnome shell though
[18:32] <velcroshooz> Has anyone else had issues with kworker giving kernel panics in 11.10?
[18:32] <Gentoo64> but its a bit of a poll lol
[18:32] <Camulus> I am trying to get a DoD CAC to work with Ubuntu 11.10 and Firefox 7.0.1. I have the card reader installed and "Pcsc_scan" will show the reader and the card but when I try to open Firefox with the card inserted it will not open.

[18:33] <karlos123> hi
[18:33] <dtriley4_> Anyone familiar with an ubuntu 11.04 mouse left click stuck bug?
[18:33] <karlos123> i want help
[18:33] <n0yd> sd: neither. both are rubbish. imho
[18:33] <n0yd> Of course opinions are like arseholes, everybody has one.
[18:33] <sd> when i use google chrome in fullscreen i cant reverse it to normal size by pressing f11. what could be the problem
[18:33] <rhizmoe> how do i resize a window when the scroll thumb appears right at the edge?
[18:34] <episteme> rhizmoe: use the other side of the window
[18:34] <rhizmoe> really?
[18:34] <n0yd> Is it true Linus switched to xfce? First he was all up in arms over gnomes simpleness and went to kde..... now hes on xfce? lol
[18:34] <riffautae> rhizmoe: also alt+right mouse i think lets you resize or something simular
[18:34] <rhizmoe> ridiculous
[18:34] <riffautae> n0yd: the simpleness of gnome complaint was the lack of configuration i think
[18:34] <Andy2113> hey guys, I have a couple of questions. I just recently upgraded to ubuntu 11.04 and uh... I am 100% lost on how to use it.  Any way to make the UI more like past verstions? I can't find anything, I can't see when a window is flashing (making it hard to switch between) I don't know where the updater is, and again, I can't see windows flashing because everything is like fullscreen or something. Help?
[18:35] <karlos123> hi
[18:35] <karlos123> hi
[18:35] <rhizmoe> funnily enough, the other side of the window is the title bar, which is not available as a resizing handle
[18:35] <maggas1234> geia saw
[18:35] <rhizmoe> episteme: ^^
[18:35] <maggas1234> geia sas
[18:35] <n0yd> riffautae: right, and gconf is archaic etc.  But to bitch about gnome2 and then praise kde where there is a million options for things and options for options for options and so on, just seems crazy
[18:36] <n0yd> but Linus is a bit nutty. lol
[18:36] <maggas1234> milaei kaneis elinika?
[18:36] <episteme> rhizmoe: did you try riffautae idea?
[18:36] <c0stre> *natty
[18:36] <MonkeyDust> n0yd: i think your comment are for #ubuntu-offtopic
[18:36] <Andy2113> also, another REALLY annoying thing is that all the menu drop downs are where the quicklaunch bar was. Help?
[18:36] <sivakumar> DasEi,
[18:36] <n0yd> MonkeyDust: meh. im done here anyway
[18:36] <maggas1234> speak greek?
[18:36] <unkr> what does this means "-NickServ- You are not logged in."
[18:36] <episteme> maggas1234: i understand but don't speak very well
[18:36] <riffautae> n0yd: its a support channel anyway
[18:36] <KaiSforza> can anyone help me with ssh tunneling?
[18:37] <rhizmoe> alt-right click on the title bar gives me a resizing mode, but only on one side, which is the wrong side.
[18:37] <Gentoo64> n0yd: dont see why you're complaining... you said the comp was for someone else who hasnt even seen it yet. and you use arch...
[18:37] <riffautae> KaiSforza: maybe
[18:37] <n0yd> riffautae: duh.  Ive been around here for over 6 years.
[18:37] <Gentoo64> n0yd: so who cares
[18:37] <riffautae> rhizmoe: it depends on whre on the window you have your mouse
[18:37]  * n0yd cofounded #linux-coders
[18:37] <riffautae> rhizmoe: when you initiate it
[18:37] <Andy2113> *sigh* I shoulda known asking here was a waste of time
[18:37] <unkr> what does this means "-NickServ- You are not logged in."?   why this is shown to me as i already identify myself
[18:37] <n0yd> Andy2113: lol
[18:37] <unkr> ??
[18:37] <n0yd> it always is
[18:37] <maggas1234> somebody help me
[18:37] <KaiSforza> riffautae: I have the information for the sst tunnel, i connected, but even after messing with my proxy settings, it's not changing anything.
[18:37] <rhizmoe> alt-right click on the title bar is the only place in the window where i am given a resize option int he context menu
[18:38] <KaiSforza> *ssh
[18:38] <riffautae> KaiSforza: did you want to tunnel or use it as a socks proxy? they are different settings and you cant socks through the normal ssh tunnel
[18:38] <n0yd> andy i could help you
[18:38] <ViaNocturna85> how do i make pidgin the app that opens if i select 'chat' on Ubuntu 11.10
[18:38] <maxx878> Andy2113, address one by one ...1 the most important one..
[18:38] <n0yd> Andy2113: *
[18:38] <rhizmoe> i imagine the last few weeks have been pretty annoying for the regulars here :/
[18:39] <n0yd> Andy2113: getting regular gnome2 look back on 11.04 is easy
[18:39] <riffautae> rhizmoe: i didnt meant it as a menu option. you just hold the buttons and move the mouse and the window resizes. i am not in gnome atm so i cant check the exact key sequence but its been that for a while
[18:40] <Andy2113> maxx878: it's not that it's not appealing or anything, it's just confusing as all hell not having a way to physically click between windows at the bottom (because the side quicklauncher always disappears and wont even flash when a window is supposed to)
[18:40] <trism> ViaNocturna85: you can't, really, it is hardcoded in indicator-messages to empathy (well it was in natty anyway), but you can uninstall empathy, and the chat item will disappear leaving only the pidgin item
[18:40] <episteme> Andy2113: it autohides
[18:40] <rasmusth> If I change any of the composite settings in compiz, Unity does not work. Does anybody know why this might be?
[18:40] <unkr> can anyone tell me what is the easiest & safest method to get dual booting system without making system unbootable ??
[18:40] <n0yd> Andy2113: if you pm me, I wouldnt mind helping you
[18:40] <riffautae> Andy2113: you can install gnome-shell or gnome-panel for other styles but they are no logner supported. try xfce, its basicly a gnome2 clone
[18:41] <ViaNocturna85> trism, I suppose that's the only way then, thanks
[18:41] <n0yd> riffautae: hes running 11.04 not *.10
[18:41] <riffautae> rasmusth: you may not have your video card drivers set up properly
[18:41] <KM0201> riffautae: i would hardly call xfce a gnome 2 clone
[18:41] <riffautae> n0yd: ah i see
[18:41] <Andy2113> episteme: yeah, I figured that the moment it autohid for the first time.
[18:41] <MonkeyDust> unkr: a win/lin dual boot? first win, then lin, for win will ruin the grub
[18:41] <Hydrode> Hello
[18:41] <Gentoo64> MonkeyDust: yes
[18:41] <rasmusth> riffautae: I've installed the driver it told me to?
[18:41] <Gentoo64> MonkeyDust: sorry thought you were asking
[18:41] <riffautae> rasmusth: what is your video card
[18:42] <KaiSforza> riffautae: I'm trying to set it up as a socks proxy...
[18:42] <rasmusth> 9400M
[18:42] <unkr> MonkeyDust: how to be safe by this ??  i want to try all dual booting possibilty  and making it to single boot again  any suggestion ??
[18:42] <rasmusth> it's a 2009 mac mini
[18:43] <dtriley4_> Anyone familiar with an ubuntu 11.04 mouse left click stuck bug?
[18:43] <riffautae> KaiSforza: ssh -D 9090 will set up a socks proxy on port 9090
[18:43] <MonkeyDust> unkr: what do you mean by 'safe'? how can it be unsafe?
[18:44] <c0stre> any nifty command to show uptime?
[18:44] <dtriley4_> (QUESTION)Anyone familiar with an ubuntu 11.04 mouse left click stuck bug?
[18:44] <unkr> MonkeyDust: by safe means that i dont want the system to become unbootable
[18:44] <riffautae> rasmusth: hm unusual video card, did you try the nvidia binary drivers?
[18:44] <KaiSforza> thanks, riffautae
[18:44] <riffautae> KaiSforza: be aware dns usualy doesnt go through socks
[18:44] <MonkeyDust> unkr: have you experienced that?
[18:44] <riffautae> KaiSforza: firefox has a secret setting to force it to
[18:45] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[18:45] <rasmusth> riffautae: the drivers I have installed are the ones it proposed
[18:46] <rasmusth> the ones that arent free
[18:46] <kapuze> what happened to the padevchooser package in oneiric?
[18:46] <riffautae> rasmusth: hm ok well that should be fine ..
[18:46] <rasmusth> and it says it is installed and working and everything in settings

[18:49] <alexsej> #ubuntu
[18:49] <tsaknorris> i got it. now i will change bootloader bgr img :)
[18:49] <newbie_> hi all
[18:49] <alexsej>  #ubuntu-ru
[18:49] <EvilResistance> alexsej:  can we help you?
[18:50] <compdoc> its:   /join #ubuntu-ru
[18:50] <velcroshooz> sigh. 11.10 is pretty much unusable on my laptop. kworker is causing kernel panics at least every hour.
[18:50] <newbie_> can someone help me too
[18:50] <KM0201> !ask | newbie_
[18:50] <compdoc> not sure what kworker is
[18:50] <newbie_> i have a problem with network manager on oneiric
[18:51] <newbie_> well i am using ubuntu 11.10 and sometimes i see kernelpanic messages too
[18:51] <riffautae> velcroshooz: have any other versions of ubuntuy worked??
[18:51] <newbie_> well KM0201 network manager on oneiric is sucks
[18:52] <trism> kapuze: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=636151 (it was removed because it is deprecated upstream)
[18:52] <newbie_> i think oneiric is nt stable
[18:52] <KM0201> newbie_: saying something like that, only shows you have no clue.. you might be havng a problem, but that doesn't mean oneiric is not stable
[18:53] <KM0201> newbie_: you might look into wicd, if network manager is giving you that many probs.
[18:53] <newbie_> well oneiric dont see my vodafone vodem
[18:53] <velcroshooz> riffautae: i was running 10.10 with no issues .. now since upgrading, as i said, kworker is KP'ing constantly (kworker is what controls ACPI wakeup signals from the bios)
[18:53] <Big> hello, I have installed ubuntu-desktop on one test machine that i can access only via ssh, i was wondering how can i enable remote connections from the terminal to be able to access it using remote desktop connection "Vinagre" ?
[18:53] <newbie_> and also i see kernel panic messages sometimes although i updated my system
[18:53] <newbie_> wicd what is it?
[18:54] <KM0201> newbie_: well, just because it doesn't see that modem, doesn't mean it's "not stable"
[18:54] <maxx878> newbie_, do you wi-fi problems
[18:54] <newbie_> what is wicd KM0201
[18:54] <KM0201> newbie_: it's another network manager
[18:54] <marsfligth> Does exist a way to delete automatically files into 'trash bin' setting a maximum deletion time? For instance 'Thunderbird' has this function for each folder
[18:54] <newbie_> no
[18:54] <crooks> newbie_, try going into the cli and typing eject sr1.  often gsm modems get mounted as a cdrom when they are first put in
[18:55] <newbie_> sometimes oneiric sees my vodem but sometimes it doesnt also i cant use bcm(betavine connection manager) bec. of depency problems
[18:55] <riffautae> Big: look into ssh port forwarding
[18:55] <velcroshooz> from googling i guess kworker has serious issues with intel gfx as well .. just my luck. :/
[18:55] <newbie_> i do it crooks
[18:56] <newbie_> but it says there is no sr1 device
[18:56] <riffautae> Big: with that you should be able to tunnel a vnc connection
[18:57] <newbie_> i try to a few times . i mean i plug in my vodem and then i check kernel message and then i unplug it as everytime i plug i check kernel message and then when i see it ( i mean  gsm modem message) i am able to connect to internet
[18:58] <Big> riffautae: thanks
[18:58] <maxx878> newbie_, are they still using modem in s-america
[18:59] <crooks> newbie_ I always use wvdial to connect mine.  Never put much faith in the network manager for that sorta thing
[18:59] <riffautae> maxx878: dialup is used in many rural areas still
[19:00] <crooks> maxx878, he's using a cellular modem
[19:00] <maxx878> Oh! din't not signified that
[19:00] <rasmusth> riffautae: you dont know what I can try to do?
[19:01] <riffautae> rasmusth: ): sorry other then leave compositing off, no
[19:01] <magn3ts> where is my syntax error: ?
[19:01] <magn3ts> sudo -s "echo \"localhost reddit.com www.reddit.com\" >> /etc/hosts"
[19:01] <riffautae> rasmusth: your vg may not support it but i am not sure
[19:01] <rasmusth> riffautae: what is vg? :)
[19:02] <Becky_> hi
[19:02] <riffautae> rasmusth: sorry vc, as in video card
[19:02] <rasmusth> arh okay
[19:02] <Becky_> I'm using xubuntu and xfce4-panel and xfdesktop no longer appear to load on startup
[19:02] <Becky_> as far as I know I didn't change anything
[19:02] <rasmusth> what does this composite thing do anyway?
[19:02] <kapuze> does anybody know a tool to configure pulseaudio sources and sinks (like padevchooser was)?
[19:03] <earomulo> hi all, Im having a hard time setting up dual monitors
[19:03] <maxx878> Becky_, can u re-start the gdm
[19:03] <Becky_> how would I do that?
[19:03] <jose> earomulo, whch is your video card
[19:03] <Becky_> I can load them seperately and it works fine
[19:03] <earomulo> jose an nvidia
[19:03] <Becky_> but it doesn't start on bootup
[19:04] <earomulo> gave up on using nvidia driver though
[19:04] <Andy80> does it happen to anyone that LightDM doesn't start on boot after recent upgrades? I've to CTRL+ALT+F1, login and "sudo start lightdm" to be able to start it. Any idea?
[19:04] <iceroot> kapuze: have a look at pavucontrol  also see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/padevchooser/+bug/851695
[19:04] <jose> earomulo, ubuntu version?
[19:04] <maxx878> Becky_, i don't use xubuntu i just want to know that
[19:04] <earomulo> 11.10
[19:04] <Becky_> oh
[19:04] <Becky_> :(
[19:04] <jose> propt
[19:05] <jose> propietary or open source drivers?
[19:05] <maxx878> Becky_, working on it..
[19:05] <Becky_> thanks :)
[19:05] <kapuze> ubottu, its seems like it will not come back, but i need an alternative way to do that
[19:05] <earomulo> now trying with noveau
[19:05] <earomulo> the open source one
[19:05] <jose> earomulo, i got it working with the noveau
[19:05] <LiquidDemocracy> Hi, I am using KDE for the first time after years of using Gnome. How on earth do I open another GUI session with another user. Clicking on "switch user" locks the screen and pressing control+alt+f8 only shows a black screen with a blicking cursor.
[19:06] <jose> the answer is in ubuntuguide.org
[19:06] <earomulo> jose its not working the way i wanted it to =/
[19:06] <earomulo> jose i want to change the screens
[19:06] <earomulo> but theres no xorg.conf file for me to edit
[19:07] <jose> earomulo, i havent tried the opensoruce ones
[19:07] <Becky_> I'm looking in my xinitrc to see if changing stuff there will help
[19:07] <earomulo> and system configuration wont give me an option
[19:07] <jose> the nvidia settings are hidden. only accesible by cli
[19:07] <earomulo> aint noveau open source?
[19:08] <jose> i tried with the propietary one. so far they work very good
[19:08] <jose> perhaps i should try the opensource ones
[19:09] <maxx878> Becky_, did you save your xconfig.. *.bak
[19:09] <Becky_> no :/
[19:09] <Weems> I am having trouble resolving dependencies broken passages: http://pastebin.ca/2093159
[19:09] <Becky_> I didn
[19:09] <Becky_> t change my xconfig file
[19:09] <earomulo> no way i can change the screens? naming monitor to screen0 and tv to screen1
[19:10] <jose>  i did it on the propietary one
[19:10] <earomulo> i did it on the proprietary too.. editing the xorg.conf file it generated
[19:11] <earomulo> but the whole desktop went crazy
[19:11] <maxx878> Becky_, try this command then if it works
[19:11] <earomulo> gnome3 would only load in classical mode
[19:11] <earomulo> and badly
[19:11] <Becky_> hokay
[19:11] <maxx878> Becky_, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[19:11] <jose> it think they are trying to get rid of xorg
[19:11] <jose> for wayland
[19:12] <dluzius> I guess I've struck out, there seems to be no way to get a battery indicator on my Unity desktop.
[19:12] <rasmusth> riffautae: everything works like a charm without this composite thing
[19:12] <MonkeyDust> how do i restart ftp? init.d not found, service not found
[19:12] <jose> look in ubuntuguide.org, there is the solution to your problrem
[19:12] <rasmusth> guess it doesnt matter if I have it on a mediacenter anyway
[19:12] <Becky_> maxx878: I typed it and it logged me out
[19:12] <Becky_> maxx878: when I logged back in, the same thing happened
[19:12] <Becky_> no desktop or panel
[19:12] <Becky_> strange
[19:13] <William> hi? :s
[19:13] <maxx878> Becky_, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/ubuntu-tiphow-to-removeinstall-and-reconfigure-xorg-without-reinstalling-ubuntu.html
[19:14] <Guest39393> Wow, ok i guess im in the right channel... I've just got a quick question. Can i boot a computer on a usb stick without any hard drive?
[19:14] <earomulo> well, guess Iĺl stick to noveau and mirror screens for a while...
[19:14] <earomulo> jose, thanks =/
[19:14] <MonkeyDust> Guest39393: yes, use unetbootin
[19:15] <Guest39393> Thanks Monkey! :)
[19:15] <Becky_> maxx878: ok, do you think that will work?
[19:15] <pehden> yay damn firestarter was blocking me
[19:15] <Becky_> as in
[19:15] <Becky_> what will it do
[19:15] <maxx878> Becky_, np
[19:15] <earomulo> my grub is also not showing, anyone may help?
[19:15] <maxx878> Becky_, yes..but remember before editing x-config
[19:16] <tiago> hello
[19:16] <tiago> what is on
[19:16] <Becky_> ok, thanks
[19:16] <Becky_> I will do that :)

[19:19] <skilz> root__: Then install the required package
[19:20] <maxx878> Weems, why don't you take mirror to your nearest location..for update
[19:20] <root__> yeah but that install libebml version 0.7.0

[19:23] <skilz> haria40: Look for something like Nvidia or Geforce or ATI or Radian or Intel Integrated, something along those lines.
[19:23] <skilz> ah
[19:23] <riffautae> [tla]: sorry but that release is no longer supported, they took down the repos

[19:24] <haria40> skilz: GNOME
[19:24] <[tla]> riffautae: yeah but i have the packages - this is aptoncd, not accessing the repo via http etc
[19:24] <maxx878> Weems, do you have a server
[19:24] <Sh3r1ff> root__: you'll have to upgrade ubuntu if you want to install it with synaptic
[19:25] <Sh3r1ff> root__: if not, download the package
[19:25] <skilz> haria40: It appears your videocard does not support 3D, so you have have to disable what ever is trying to use effects
[19:25] <Weems> maxx878: no
[19:25] <thorn__> What is the recommended procedure to create a bootable usb flash drive using Ubuntu?

[19:26] <iceroot> !usb | thorn__
[19:26] <maxx878> Weems, then why do you use ia-32 lib
[19:26] <skilz> thorn__: Look on the ubuntu website, it has a nice guide to help you create a bootable usb drive.
[19:26] <riffautae> !eol
[19:26] <thorn__> thanks guyz!
[19:26] <haria40> skilz: Atleast I should be able to change the screen resolution
[19:26] <[tla]> riffautae: yes, dpkg -i works but why isnt apt seeing the local files?  maybe i need something in sources.list?
[19:26] <Sh3r1ff> root__: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libebml
[19:26] <Weems> maxx878: it was requested in the upgrade
[19:26] <Weems> maxx878: I didn't
[19:26] <skilz> haria40: What does xrandr say?
[19:26] <root__> Because I downloaded it from a web page but the packagge coudln't be installed...
[19:27] <skilz> haria40: As in, for availible resolutions.
[19:27] <maxx878> Weems, why nspluginwrapper then
[19:27] <unkr> KM0201: - i wna first try to dual boot the system   & then  make it again single boot
[19:27] <Weems> maxx878: it was requested in the upgrade
[19:27] <root__> Which one do I have to download?
[19:27] <Weems> maxx878: all of these are from the upgrade
[19:27] <unkr> KM0201: u there ???
[19:27] <KM0201> unkr: youcan do that, but... why would you do that?.. just try ubuntu in virtualbox
[19:27] <riffautae> [tla]: oh i see you want to use the cached version of the package. hmm might be due to the repo going down. apt might remove all packages from its known locations if it doent have any repos that claim to have it
[19:27] <root__> libebml_1.2.2.orig.tar.bz2, libebml_1.2.2-1.debian.tar.gz or libebml_1.2.2-1.dsc?
[19:28] <haria40> skilz: http://pastebin.ca/2093163
[19:28] <Sh3r1ff> root__: http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/libebml3
[19:28] <maxx878> Weems, that upgrade i don't think so so tell me what win drivers are u trying to install
[19:28] <[tla]> riffautae: ok, thanks.  dpkg it is then
[19:28] <Sh3r1ff> root__: that will download the .deb file
[19:29] <skilz> haria40: Look like  1024x768        0.0*  is your only option
[19:29] <riffautae> [tla]: i do strongly recommend you update to a newer release though, especially if this computer faces the internet since you no longer get security updates
[19:29] <skilz> Have you ever been able to set the resolution higher?
[19:29] <maxx878> Weems, is the wi-fi not working so you are trying windows drivers..if that's so
[19:30] <[tla]> riffautae: yeah, i am aware.  this system is nowhere near the internet - hence aptoncd etc ;)
[19:30] <skilz> Weems: Whats wrong with your wifi?
[19:30] <riffautae> [tla]: oki
[19:30] <rasmusth> does VNC not work on 11.10?
[19:30] <root__> I ran this on the console
[19:30] <root__> sh libebml3_1.2.1-1_i386.deb
[19:30] <haria40> skilz: My collegues having the same laptop config running Ubuntu 11.04 have a good resolution than on my machine
[19:30] <KM0201> rasmusth: works for me.. what problem are you having/
[19:31] <root__> But it didn't tell me anything
[19:31] <Sh3r1ff> root__: just double click the file in nautilus, that will install it
[19:31] <skilz> root__: lol, sudo dpkg -i libebml3_1.2.1-1_i386.deb
[19:31] <rasmusth> KM0201: I just cant find it in settings
[19:32] <Guest39393> ehm, hi again! :p can i use Ubuntu 11.10-desktop as a live usb stick version?
[19:32] <skilz> haria40: Are you sure it's exactly the same laptop? With same videocard?
[19:32] <iceroot> Guest39393: yes
[19:32] <skilz> Guest39393: Yes you can.
[19:32] <KM0201> rasmusth: i dunno, i don't use the "ubuntu tool" for vnc
[19:32] <root__> it said this
[19:32] <root__> sudo dpkg -i libebml3_1.2.1-1_i386.deb
[19:32] <root__> dpkg-deb: fin de fichero inesperado en número de versión en libebml3_1.2.1-1_i386.deb

[19:32] <Guest39393> Oh, ok :) thanks!
[19:32] <root__>  libebml3_1.2.1-1_i386.deb
[19:32] <rasmusth> KM0201: which do you use then?
[19:32] <KM0201> rasmusth: it's easy enough to do manually
[19:33] <haria40> skilz: Yes.  Its Lenovo Thinkpad
[19:33] <maxx878> iceroot, :)) happy see you back
[19:33] <compdoc> rasmusth, vnc works fine
[19:33] <skilz> root__: Please write in english.
[19:33] <Sh3r1ff> root__: you'll have to translate in english ;)
[19:33] <KM0201> compdoc: rasmusth only thing i'm aware of not working properly, is reverse vnc, w/ vncviewer.
[19:33] <induz> If i download a bz file how can i install it on Ubuntu
[19:33] <KM0201> but if you use xtightvncviewer, it works fine
[19:33] <induz> is there a Edura version for ubuntu
[19:34] <skilz> induz: man tar
[19:34] <helo> i just upgraded from natty to oneiric, and i get an error on boot saying that the system has detected one or more degraded RAID devices, and drops me to a busybox shell
[19:34] <helo> but /proc/mdstat shows that my array is not degraded
[19:34] <iceroot> induz: if possible always use software from the repos instead of tar.gz
[19:34] <root__> http://paste.ubuntu.com/732332/
[19:34] <helo> it's fully active... right after the warning it says "md/raid1:md0: active with 2 out of 2 mirrors"
[19:34] <unkr> can anyone tell me what is the easiest & safest method to get dual booting system without making system unbootable ??
[19:34] <riffautae> [tla]: if you look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades it looks like some old releases have a special historic repos you might try adding
[19:34] <induz> iceroot,   Eudora is not in repo
[19:34] <iceroot> induz: you can search the repos with "apt-cache search searchstring" or use software-center
[19:34] <root__> this is what ubuntu said in the console
[19:35] <induz> I have downloaded the .bz file and its /tmp folder
[19:35] <[tla]> riffautae: thx
[19:35] <iceroot> induz: extract the file e.g. with the gui - right click - extract and then read the README inside
[19:36] <root__> it says that the package could be damaged
[19:37] <pehden> so apparently routers no longer allow loop back via DNS
[19:38] <echelo> ciao
[19:38] <echelo> !list
[19:38] <maxx878> pehden, when you have dns why you want loop back
[19:38] <rasmusth> compdoc: which vnc daemon do you use?
[19:38] <induz> iceroot, sudo tar -C /opt -xvf <place where you downloaded the file>
[19:38] <h00k> pehden: it's not exactly an Ubuntu question, but some don't for security reasons.
[19:38] <echelo> where are a file sharing channel?
[19:38] <h00k> !alis > echelo
[19:38] <induz>  iceroot it does something but i dont see eudora
[19:39] <induz> any repo for eudora??
[19:39] <OmNomNomNom> hi all
[19:39] <pehden> well its a server thing im using ubuntu server
[19:39] <skilz> induz: Why do you want eudora so bad? Whats wrong with Mozilla Thunderbird? Or Empathy?
[19:40] <h00k> pehden: check http://opensimulator.org/wiki/NAT_Loopback_Routers, that may help
[19:40] <root__> Hi
[19:40] <skilz> or pine or exim4 for that matter
[19:40] <root__> I need to install libebml version >= 1.0.0
[19:40] <compdoc> rasmusth, I install vnc4server because it includes vncconfig, which enables Windows clipboard sharing. Its very simple to set up, but you need a file that goes into /etc/init.d to make it work. You have to add the file yourself. You can find it online, or I could give you one
[19:40] <root__> Can anyone help me?
[19:40] <skilz> root__: What software are you trying to install?
[19:41] <root__> libebml
[19:41] <skilz> root__: What are the deps for?
[19:41] <skilz> root__: What software are you trying to instal that requires libebml?
[19:41] <induz> skilz, my office/employer wants it
[19:42] <skilz> induz: Tell them it's shit
[19:42] <induz> skilz, I am new to this job
[19:42] <root__> I need VLCJ (VLC FOR JAVA)
[19:42] <induz> skilz, I can not tell them
[19:42] <root__> But one prerequisite is to install vlc/libvlc
[19:42] <rasmusth> compdoc cool
[19:42] <pangolin> !language | skilz
[19:42] <induz> skilz, i want to use it at home on my Ubuntu 10.4
[19:42] <maxx878> root__, that what we want them to find out :))
[19:42] <root__> And when I'm installing vlc/libvlc one step tell me that I need libebml >= 1.0.0
[19:43] <skilz> induz: Tell them it has expoloit, bad code any they may not want to use it.
[19:43] <skilz> induz: Buffer overflow vulnerability
[19:43] <induz> How can i run Edura on Ubuntu10.4
[19:43] <induz> skilz, I know all that but is it possible to run
[19:43] <skilz> induz: run the windows version in wine
[19:47] <vatzec> Thelmaria: OK, thanks. :) I was thinking the "new nexthop" message says that it's a routing problem.
[19:47] <MonkeyDust> induz: or use vbox
[19:47] <MonkeyDust> i mean: windows in vbox
[19:48] <maxx878> hi
[19:48] <rasmusth> does anybody know how I install LIRC in 11.10?
[19:49] <ceephax> hey, im setting up an ubuntu server 11.10 box for my house to use as a kind of NAS server. I have 3 hard drives, one 250gb that i have put / onto and two 1tb drives that i have setup a RAID1 on to, is this correct or should i have put the root (/) onto the raid drives?
[19:49] <skilz> rasmusth: sudo apt-get install lirc
[19:50] <skilz> ceephax: You are correct.
[19:50] <branchman_> apparmor message: "Failed name lookup - disconnected path". How to turn it off? It is for perfectly controlled program, program restart does not help
[19:52] <ceephax> skilz, thanks sorry i have one more question.  This raid drive, how can i access it from within the OS, by that i mean does it automatically take all files i put on to the box onto RAID, unless they are ubuntu server specific files (i.e. the root) like upgrades
[19:52] <maxx878> ceephax, 250gb /root common sense go head..
[19:54] <gamut> Hello all, I have a strange problem that I was hoping someone could help with.  It relates to running ubuntu i686 9.04 on a ServeRAID M5015 (megaraid_sas) array.  We have two such systems, and both suffer incredible IO problems after a few minutes of operation, or during intensive disk operations.
[19:54] <gamut> Could someone please point me to where I can get help with such things?  A forum? A driver development channel?

[20:02] <ceephax> maxx878, hmm good point, i do have a larger psu should i upgrade it
[20:02] <psilo23> so i need to start windows
[20:02] <psilo23> to stream that website
[20:02] <psilo23> lol
[20:02] <ceephax> maxx878, i assumed they would have given ample room for multiple drives
[20:03] <thoidingjam> help me install tekken on 9.10
[20:03] <pehden> badapple  so http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_s5260_star_ii-3718.php

[20:03] <maxx878> ceephax, if you put more that one you will destroy the cpu..so extend the psu to 500w don't worry ..about it.
[20:03] <cousin_luigi> hello
[20:03] <root__> help me installing libebml version  >= 1.0.0
[20:03] <ceephax> maxx878, upgrading now :)
[20:03] <thorn__> the regular update-manager? how can I find out if my computer needs a proprietary video driver?
[20:03] <cousin_luigi> the software update applet is not running (gnome3-fallback) what should I launch?
[20:04] <ceephax> maxx878, can you tell me about my question about raid1, will only the OS files go in the 250gb drive and the rest i.e. /home go on the raid?
[20:04] <psilo23> hehehe thats some good help you get here, as a ubuntu user to get told to use windows in the #ubuntu room, thats hillarious :D
[20:04] <thorn__> the regular update-manager? how can I find out if my computer needs a proprietary video driver?
[20:05] <thorn__> how can I find out if my computer needs a proprietary video driver?
[20:05] <thoidingjam> !appdb
[20:05] <maxx878> ceephax, raid of windows simply cannot do anything about it
[20:05] <thorn__> how do I list the hardware on my machine?
[20:05] <psilo23> thorn__: VirtualBox
[20:05] <psilo23> use windows
[20:05] <psilo23> its the same help i got here :D
[20:05] <thorn__> haha
[20:06] <ceephax> maxx878, sorry i do not understand your answer? are you not on ubuntu?
[20:06] <monstaRtruck> hahahaha
[20:06] <monstaRtruck> linux
[20:06] <monstaRtruck> i still like linux a lil bit
[20:06] <monstaRtruck> :D
[20:06] <monstaRtruck> linux and windows can be friends
[20:06] <psilo23> To everyone: If you experience problems, use windows to solve them. (As i was told)
[20:06] <cousin_luigi> what is the update manager applet called on 11.10?
[20:06] <riffautae> ceephax: unless you mount the raid partition someplace you wont be able to acces the files
[20:07] <riffautae> ceephax: on my nas i just put it at /nas'
[20:07] <maxx878> ceephax, do you think that the problem..then ask the question in the community and wait ..till you are really assured in making decisions
[20:07] <monstaRtruck> what u guys think about APPLE hahaha
[20:07] <CharlieSu> What is the best way to make a server configured w/ Timezone Central/US switch to UTC?
[20:07] <xangua> !ot | monstaRtruck
 install NTP
[20:08] <CharlieSu> monstaRtruck: already done..
[20:08] <monstaRtruck> oops
[20:08] <maxx878> thorn__, lspci -v paste the output to www.pastebin.com
[20:08] <riffautae> CharlieSu: dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
[20:09] <pehden> badapple
[20:09] <ceephax> maxx878, please do not be offended i am simply trying to understand my raid setup i am currently installing. I just want to know if the files i put on the computer that are non OS related will automaticcally be stored on the raid or do i need to set it up in a specific way
[20:09] <pehden> thanks h00k
[20:09] <riffautae> ceephax:no they wont be, you hav to set it up
[20:09] <ceephax> riffautae, brill
[20:10] <riffautae> ceephax: if you make your 250gb '/' then everything will go on that drive
[20:10] <ceephax> maxx878, i only asked about being on ubuntu because you mentioned windows
[20:10] <melter> will ubuntu 11.10 automatically upgrade to firefox 8?
[20:10] <ceephax> riffautae, so is it possible to have my 250gb drive seperate from my two 1tb drives (setup as raid)
[20:11] <riffautae> ceephax: not like in windows where they show up as different roots, but you can mount your raid under / as a folder
[20:11] <someone> I'm having a rather hard time setting up samba
[20:11] <Guest29882> all i can find are tuts with ubuntu to windows
[20:11] <Guest29882> i dont want to do anything with windows just ubuntu to ubuntu
[20:11] <Guest29882> and  i can not get the login to work
[20:12] <compdoc> someone, whats the problem?
[20:12] <riffautae> ceephax: for example on my own server i usually use /space or /nas
[20:12] <ceephax> riffautae, okay i think i understand once my install is complete ill try mounting them onto my /
[20:12] <ceephax> riffautae, thanks this is what i needed to know
[20:12] <Guest29882> compdoc: ive got my computer to show up on the network but can not access it
[20:12] <riffautae> ceephax: you can also mount /home on the raid
[20:12] <riffautae> ceephax: and then all your user data will be on it
[20:13] <compdoc> Guest29882, it requires setting permissions on the directory, and defining it properly in smb.conf
[20:13] <maxx878> ceephax, do you have any idea of raid why do they use raid in servers..
[20:14] <goksu> hi everyone. sorry for being so lame. how do we recover a directory that has been deleted?
[20:14] <Guest29882> ahhh, setting permissions on the directory thats prolly what im missing
[20:14] <Guest29882> compdoc: ty
[20:14] <jrib> !recover | goksu
[20:14] <compdoc> Guest29882, does your server have a desktop, or is it command line only?
[20:15] <goksu> the file system is ext4
[20:15] <ceephax> maxx878, no but i am very keen in learning. hence building a server with raid
[20:15] <mlavery> join #phpwebsite
[20:15] <mlavery> ho-hum
[20:15] <riffautae> ceephax: raid is for increased performance or uptime, but it is not, by itself, a backup
[20:16] <root__> I have a question
[20:16] <Guest29882> i need to beable to sync home directories across a laptop desktop and external hd, doesnt look like its going to let me share my home directory
[20:16] <root__> If a want to upgrade ubuntu, do I lost my applications and data?
[20:16] <maxx878> ceephax, for time sake read and understand; you look so much concern about the failure of hdd..
[20:16] <riffautae> ceephax: just an fri
[20:16] <riffautae> ceephax: fyi*
[20:17] <xangua> root__: no, but always good idea to make a backup
[20:17]  * cousin_luigi has just received another confirmation that Oneiric sucks more than a bulimic vampire.
[20:17] <cousin_luigi> goodbye
[20:17] <root__> backup of database dat?
[20:17] <root__> a
[20:17] <riffautae> root__: everything you care about and dont want to lose
[20:17] <Guest29882> actually im not seeing any way to share anything in thunar
[20:17] <root__> Ok thank you
[20:17] <Guest29882> i have gvfs backends installed for networking
[20:17] <riffautae> root__: including any special settings in /etc that you made
[20:19] <maxx878> ceephax, we can help you in many ways to implement is up to you...:))
[20:19] <godbod> sommeone easy with Qt here ?
[20:20] <maxx878> Qt???.. godbod
[20:20] <goksu> is there a quick and dirty command that undeletes a directory?
[20:20] <riffautae> goksu: if you did it in the terminal, no.
[20:20] <godbod> euh yes ! Qt
[20:20] <crazybyte> Hello! Has somebody had some success running gopenvpn and forcing the systray icon appear in oneiric? thank you.
[20:20] <godbod> Qt Nokia

[20:21] <maxx878> godbod, can you be more specific..please
[20:21] <root__> ok thanks
[20:21] <godbod> no worries...
[20:21] <godbod> forget it...
[20:21] <sevith> Im having issues. I have a special sequence of characters that occur within a file. The sequence is !ki* and I am trying to: cat file | grep !ki*    How do I grep for these special characters? I only want everything that contains these four characters inside it.
[20:22] <godbod> I was ust asking, cause this is not really the right post for that
[20:22] <goksu> I removed two users and chose to delete the files related. but now I found out that I had my wifes files in one.
[20:22] <sevith> Anyone have any ideas or a grep massah ?
[20:23] <maxx878> sevith, can you paste the output of the | grepp
[20:23] <sevith> maxx878, hah..Uhm. It errors out.
[20:23] <maxx878> sevith, can you paste the output of the | grep
[20:23] <sevith> -su: !ki*: event not found
[20:24] <sevith> maxx878, -su: !ki*: event not found. This is what ./a.out | grep !ki*
[20:24] <sevith> But in fact I KNOW it occurs.
[20:24] <goksu> I removed two users and chose to delete the files related. but now I found out that I had my wifes files in one.
[20:24] <goksu> I really need to get copies of the files
[20:24] <maxx878> sevith, sorry i am unfamiliar with it ..
[20:26] <lousygarua> goksu, what do you mean? can you explain further?
[20:27] <jrib> goksu: i gave you the !recover factoid.  That's pretty much your only chance if you don't have backups.  In the future, make backups
[20:27] <maxx878> hi
[20:27] <goksu> lousygarua, I deleted the home folder of a user while removing it. now I need a directory from it.
[20:28] <goksu> thank you jrib. I am reading those files. I believe some of you have done this before. I have not done a recovery before. so I am hoping for some help.
[20:28] <mlerchl> sevith, try      grep ^"!ki" * > yourfileexport
[20:29] <root__> How can I fix a .deb file?
[20:29] <maxx878> hi; guys alive and fine :))
[20:29] <jrib> root__: how is it broken?
[20:29] <root__> maybe
[20:29] <mlerchl> sevith, you want all content of files which beginns with !ki in one file??
[20:30] <root__> it says that ubuntu found an exit error
[20:30] <jrib> root__: pastebin, don't paraphrase
[20:31] <alexxio> hi, i have an important question: since yesterday, my bootloader was fine...i don't know why something was wrong in the universe, then i can't no more boot on windows  from grub

[20:32] <alexxio> i actually don't know if i have grub or grub2 installed, but actually i can only boot on windows only if i edit the grub lines and remove the uud of the win partiion, then it gives me an error and boots...how can i fix this?
[20:32] <Tobbi> Hey. For some reason, Ubuntu will not take my account password as correct, although I am sure it is correct. Can I create another root user from the recovery console or change my account password there?
[20:32] <binarymutant> xangua: ty :D
[20:32] <root__> I need 1.0.0 or later
[20:32] <jrib> root__: and what version is in your ubuntu's repositories?
[20:33] <xangua> root__: what ubuntu version do you use¿
[20:33] <maxx878> alexxio, what you want is grub or windows
[20:33] <root__> 10.04 LTS
[20:34] <os_> hi
[20:34] <os_> i need a xen ppa
[20:34] <alexxio> maxx878, i want grub to be restored and boot windows or linux, just like it is created to. i also forget to say that i already did update-grub, grub-install --recheck  and grub-install --root-directory without solving
[20:35] <root__> I have ubuntu version 10.04 LTS
[20:35] <xangua> !info vlc lucid
[20:35] <alexxio> it should be quite easy because i am on ubuntu and i should just refresh my grub, but it doesnt go... :(
[20:35] <xangua> root__: you have lvc 1 on lucid, are you telling the thruth ¿
[20:35] <maxx878> alexxio, so you tried dual boot but forget to mention install grub to mbr..
[20:35] <go8765> Tobbi,  you can load your system from lifecd and then solve your problem. In google you can find many mans how to do this
[20:35] <xangua> VLC 1 *
[20:37] <root__> it says: "ubuntu 10.04 LTS Lucid's version "
[20:37] <alexxio> maxx878, grub was installed on mbr when i installed ubuntu, but it's not a fresh install, my system is stable  since 5 months
[20:37] <jrib> !who | root__
[20:37] <alexxio> i mean, i'm using my pc since 5 months, yesterday it gave a problem
[20:37] <xangua> root__: lsb_release -a
[20:37] <xangua> to show what ubuntu version you use
[20:38] <root__> xangua: http://paste.ubuntu.com/732399/
[20:39] <maxx878> alexxio, for my understanding you started the pc after 5 months after installing the grub and now it don't start up
[20:39] <xangua> root__: then you should have VLC 1.0.6
[20:39] <alexxio> maxx878 & others,the fact is this, also. the startup-manager program, that is created for solving my problem, don't solve
[20:39] <root__> xangua: ok
[20:40] <root__> xangua: how can I install libebml >= 1.0.0
[20:40] <root__> ?
[20:40] <LtHummus> is there a way to put an already running app in to a screen session?
[20:42] <root__> xangua: yeah that's my version of vlc
[20:42] <alexxio> maxx878, soooo of course i se my pc everyday. it's not a problem of 5months ago. let's start from beginning. my grub has just gone madand i can't boot windows, ubuntu starts fine. i found something is wrong with grub, bcause if i manually edit the line wth set-root uuid=xxxx and delete it, i get an error, then windows starts. how can i solve?
[20:42] <root__> xangua: I didn't understand you...
[20:42] <lhammonds> Greetings
[20:43] <maxx878> alexxio, oh! that's that it, you have grub installed perfectly before that you should go to windows and re-sync the disk for it
[20:44] <alexxio> maxx878, ok :D how can i resync disk???
[20:44] <lhammonds> Does anyone know how to use "tar" to extract a single file that has the "@" sign in the filename?  I can make the command work at the prompt but the exact same command in a bash script says it cannot find the file inside the archive.
[20:45] <aeon-ltd> lhammonds: use quotes?
[20:45] <lhammonds> I'll copy/paste the command...just a sec.
[20:45] <Vince31874> did you try quotes?
[20:45] <Gambit--> Can anyone tell me, in more detail, what the 'jitter' column of 'ntpq -p' means?
[20:47] <maxx878> Gambit--, working on it
[20:47] <lhammonds> tar --extract --file=/mnt/backup/mailbox/myfile.tar --wildcards '*username@mydomain.com*' --no-anchored --strip-components=3 -C /tmp
[20:47] <alexxio> maxx878, ok :D how can i resync disk???
[20:47] <lhammonds> The exact command above works at the prompt, but using variables in a script, it does not.
[20:48] <lhammonds> alexxio, I have an rsync link you can use.
[20:48] <maxx878> alexxio, grub is the main to start up with ..pick the the windows ..
[20:49] <lhammonds> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/rsync
[20:49] <maxx878> Gambit--, random single question ..please
[20:50] <Gambit--> maxx878: eh? :)
[20:50] <lhammonds> tar --extract --file=/mnt/backup/mailbox/myfile.tar 'username@mydomain.com.tgz' --strip-components=3 -C /tmp
[20:50] <lhammonds> the above also does not work in a script using variables.
[20:51] <maxx878> alexxio, windows can re-sync itself then you get windows and then re-boot
[20:51] <root__> xangua: are you there?
[20:51] <fellayaboy> im trying to rename/remove everything inside [] in multiple files..so i used rename 's/[*]//' *mp3 but it doesnt work..what am i doing wrong
[20:51] <alexxio> maxx878 ok i'll try, thanks
[20:52] <lhammonds> tar --extract --file=/mnt/backup/mailbox/myfile.tar --wildcards '*username?mydomain.com*' --no-anchored --strip-components=3 -C /tmp
[20:52] <lhammonds> trying to avoid the "@" by using a ? does not work either.
[20:53] <nightwalkerkg> Hi all.
[20:54] <lhammonds> trying to escape the @ does not work either...assuming I am doing it right  \@
[20:54] <trism> lhammonds: is the email portion passed as a variable to tar?
[20:54] <maxx878> nightwalkerkg, yi too you
[20:54] <nightwalkerkg> Ok here is the thing.Ati droped the support for my video card and the drivers won't work anymore.So can i install the earlier version of ubuntu (10.4 or 9.04 or other) and make drivers work?
[20:54] <lhammonds> Yes, the filename to extract is a variable.
[20:54] <trism> lhammonds: variables will not be expanded instead single quotes, use ""
[20:55] <trism> lhammonds: inside, I mean
[20:55] <nightwalkerkg> Or the drivers won't work with any version?
[20:55] <lhammonds> Here is the exact line in the script:
[20:56] <riffautae> nightwalkerkg: you could try the open source driver https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver
[20:56] <maxx878> nightwalkerkg, lspci | grep VGA can you paste output
[20:56] <lhammonds> tar --extract --file=${ARCHIVE} --wildcards ${ACCTPATTERN} --no-anchored --strip-components=3 -C ${TEMPDIR}
[20:56] <nightwalkerkg> Ok,i am going to switch to ubuntu.
[20:56] <lhammonds> ${ACCTPATTERN}="'*"admin@mydomain.com"*'"
[20:56] <awardle> I have found a distribution based on Ubuntu that is completely ignoring the copyright on it. It makes no reference at all about it using Ubuntu or the license conditions that come with it. Where should I report this to?
[20:57] <nightwalkerkg> riffautae when i use them i can only set 1024x768 and 800x600 resolution.
[20:57] <alexxio> maxx878, actually it says: Found Windows 7 (loader) on /dev/sda1
[20:57] <alexxio> but it's not right i think, that should be sda2
[20:57] <pawtracks> I permanetly switched from Windows 7 to Ubuntu 11.10 but ever since I switched over my touchpad on my netbook has been very sensitive and hard to use. I have edited the Sensitivity options in seattings but I did not work. My touchpad was not sensitive in windows. Please tell me what to do.
[20:57] <cih997> hi, while trying to upgrade 11.04 to 11.10 I got this problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/874835 it says to fix it i must install this package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/amd64/cups/1.5.0-8ubuntu3 which is for 11.10. How can i install package from 11.10 on 11.04?
[20:57] <maxx878> alexxio, did you point the grub on /dev/sda1
[20:58] <alexxio> no, to /dev/sda
[20:58] <wamicho> Is there an application like Network miner in Ubuntu
[20:58] <gry> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DefaultFileManager <-- can I just disable nautilus's management of desktop icons instead of using those scripts?
[20:58] <maxx878> alexxio, why you did that so when the windows is on /dev/sda1 you should have installed it on it
[20:59] <bodom> Hi there
[20:59] <pawtracks> (03:57:38 PM) pawtracks: I permanetly switched from Windows 7 to Ubuntu 11.10 but ever since I switched over my touchpad on my netbook has been very sensitive and hard to use. I have edited the Sensitivity options in seattings but I did not work. My touchpad was not sensitive in windows. Please tell me what to do.
[20:59] <bodom> System is slow and not really responsive. Very high load average (8+) and wa times. Reboot doesn't help. I suspect some kind of hardware semifailure/slowdown. Any ideas?
[20:59] <alexxio> maxx878,my wind is on /dev/sda2
[20:59] <bergersen> how do i prevent ubuntu from diming the screen after 10 seconds when on battery?
[20:59] <lhammonds> ACCT="admin@mydomain.com"
[20:59] <lhammonds> tar --extract --file=${ARCHIVE} --wildcards "${ACCT}" --no-anchored --strip-components=3 -C ${TEMPDIR}
[21:00] <lhammonds> did not work.
[21:00] <riffautae> !patience | pawtracks
[21:00] <pawtracks> ...
[21:00] <Ve2dmn> Done anyone here have experience with 'Apport'? I want to know if it will work with applications that crashes with "SIGQUIT" (signal 3) instead of "SEGFAULT" (sig 11)
[21:00] <wamicho> Is there an application like Network miner in Ubuntu ?
[21:00] <pawtracks> Tried that.....
[21:01] <maxx878> alexxio, http://www.sorgonet.com/linux/grubrestore/
[21:01] <alexxio> maxx878, and if i have grub2?
[21:01] <Ve2dmn> wamicho: you mean like wireshark?
[21:02] <Nightwalkerkg1> Ok i am back.
[21:02] <bobweaver> I have a important question if you are on irc and see people cracking websites what to do ?
[21:02] <augusto> hello guys, how do I disable lightdm on boot?
[21:02] <alexxio> $ grub-install -v
[21:02] <alexxio> grub-install (GRUB) 1.99-12ubuntu5
[21:02] <maxx878> alexxio, you should have told me before all the time and effort wasted
[21:02] <lhammonds> tar --extract --file=${ARCHIVE} --wildcards "*${ACCT}*" --no-anchored --strip-components=3 -C ${TEMPDIR}
[21:02] <Nightwalkerkg1> How asked for my AVG output?
[21:02] <lhammonds> Still cannot find the file inside the tar
[21:03] <Nightwalkerkg1> *Who?
[21:03] <alexxio> maxx878, i'm sorry..actually i told at 21.32.23
[21:03] <bobweaver> augusto:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm
[21:03] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: me and someone else
[21:03] <Nightwalkerkg1> What do you need? riffautae
[21:04] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: what video card do you have
[21:04] <Nightwalkerkg1> DIamond ATI Radeon 9550 128mb
[21:04] <Nightwalkerkg1> A really old video card.
[21:04] <lhammonds> tar --extract --file=${ARCHIVE} --wildcards "*admin*" --no-anchored --strip-components=3 -C ${TEMPDIR}
[21:04] <wamicho> Ve2dmn : Something to analyse the files you get with wireshack
[21:04] <maxx878> alexxio, http://ubuntuguide.net/how-to-restore-grub-2-after-reinstalling-windows-xpvistawin7 | try it
[21:04] <lhammonds> tar --extract --file=${ARCHIVE} --wildcards '*admin*' --no-anchored --strip-components=3 -C ${TEMPDIR}
[21:04] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: the open source driver should support that fine, are you sure it didnt fall back to vesa or something?
[21:04] <lhammonds> does not work.
[21:05] <alexxio> maxx878 thanks
[21:05] <lhammonds> It appears that tar simply ignores any files inside the archive that have the "@" symbol in the name.
[21:05] <Nightwalkerkg1> Drivers work but my monitor is unknown and i can't change the resolution.
[21:05] <NuclearMeltdown> Nightwalkerkg1, that card isn't that bad
[21:05] <lhammonds> However, when executed at the prompt, it works....just not in a script.
[21:05] <lhammonds> Extremely odd.
[21:05] <NuclearMeltdown> you can play anything from 2006 on it
[21:06] <NuclearMeltdown> does the monitor not support DDC?
[21:06] <Nightwalkerkg1> I never called her bad,only old.
[21:06] <maxx878> alexxio, even if have windows in driver C: and have another drive to install ubuntu you should always install grub on drive c: that is /sda1
[21:06] <Ve2dmn> wamicho: Wireshark *IS* a packet analyser(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireshark). But I'm not sure exactly what feature you need...
[21:06] <Nightwalkerkg1> There is another thing.
[21:06] <Nightwalkerkg1> When i install the drivers from amd official site.
[21:07] <NuclearMeltdown> don't use the drivers from the ATI site
[21:07] <NuclearMeltdown> what's wrong with the open source ones
[21:07] <Nightwalkerkg1> Can't change the resolution and monitor is unknown.
[21:07] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: walk through these steps http://askubuntu.com/questions/24287/monitor-resolution-messed-up-monitor-is-unknown/24294#24294
[21:07] <Nightwalkerkg1> But they work fine.
[21:07] <NuclearMeltdown> Only the older version of ATI drivers support a video card that old
[21:07] <Nightwalkerkg1> Ok tnx.
[21:07] <NuclearMeltdown> ATI dropped support for them didn't they
[21:08] <Nightwalkerkg1> Yes,they did.
[21:08] <Nightwalkerkg1> That is the problem :D
[21:08] <NuclearMeltdown> since Xorg has its own drivers now
[21:08] <maxx878> Ve2dmn, what you really want to Analise in wire shark
[21:08] <jo-erlend_> I've had really good experiences with the open radeon drivers for cards that are 5xxx and newer though
[21:08] <NuclearMeltdown> why do you need the official ATI drivers
[21:08] <NuclearMeltdown> the binaries
[21:08] <Nightwalkerkg1> Don't need them.
[21:08] <jeff_ubuntu>  Should I install the ATI driver from the website or should I install it from the Additional Drivers? I know how to install both, I just want to know which would be better performance wise
[21:08] <Nightwalkerkg1> Just tried to install them.
[21:08] <NuclearMeltdown> what's wrong with the default ones
[21:08] <jo-erlend_> jeff_ubuntu, neither, unless you're experiencing any difficulties
[21:09] <Ve2dmn> wamicho: try this list of Packet Analyser software: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_packet_analyzers
[21:09] <jeff_ubuntu> jo-erlend_, I am like 3d effects are lagging etc, so I need to install one of them
[21:09] <Nightwalkerkg1> Oh yes.The additional drivers show No prop. drivers in use on the system.
[21:09] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: can you pastebin your /var/log/xorg.0.log
[21:09] <jo-erlend_> jeff_ubuntu, well... But the official drivers have issues of their own.
[21:09] <maxx878> jeff_ubuntu, it really depends what ubuntu stable or un-stable you have installed
[21:10] <jeff_ubuntu> maxx878, im on 11.10
[21:10] <Nightwalkerkg1> /var/log/xorg.0.log: No such file or directory
[21:10] <Nightwalkerkg1> riffautae
[21:10] <tajwanuser> hi
[21:10] <maxx878> jeff_ubuntu, you should not have any problem with ati drivers then
[21:10] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: it may have weird capitalization
[21:10] <tajwanuser> i'm looking for gnome session manager... in window - like this http://bderzhavets.files.wordpress.com/2008/10/debpvrun1.png
[21:11] <Nightwalkerkg1> I am going to check the partition.Back in a sec.
[21:11] <jeff_ubuntu> maxx878, what im saying though is I havent installed either one, im on a fresh install. It gives me the option to install from the Additional Drivers or from the website. Which would be the best
[21:11] <maxx878> jeff_ubuntu, lspci | grep VGA can you paste the output
[21:12] <pawtracks> I permanetly switched from Windows 7 to Ubuntu 11.10 but ever since I switched over my touchpad on my netbook has been very sensitive and hard to use. I have edited the Sensitivity options in seattings but It did not work. My touchpad was not sensitive in windows. Please tell me what to do! Is their a command I have to run in the Terminal so I need a driver?

[21:18] <lexflex> how come ubuntu doesn't get it when i unplug my external monitor on macbook pro? it does nothing. it should switch back main monitor to the laptop monitor, but it does absolutely nothgin
[21:19] <maxx878> d3f4c3d, so what are you intentions..
[21:19] <d3f4c3d> riffautae, okay i see if there is some kind ifconfig up scripts
[21:19] <lhammonds> tar REQUIRES the -C option at the beginning of the command...causes havok at the end.
[21:19] <lhammonds> tar --extract  -C ${TEMPDIR} --file=${ARCHIVE} --wildcards "*${ACCT}*" --no-anchored --strip-components=3
[21:19] <d3f4c3d> maxx878, - when i run ifconfig -a i see all interfaces, but they are not showing up under ifconfig
[21:19] <trism> lhammonds: so it works now with it at the beginning?
[21:19] <Nightwalkerkg1> riffautae http://paste.ubuntu.com/732443/
[21:19] <lhammonds> Yes
[21:20] <trism> lhammonds: good to hear, have to keep that in mind
[21:20] <maxx878> d3f4c3d, if you have only eth0 then there is no need for up ..
[21:20] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: what about the output from the commands this guy talks about http://askubuntu.com/questions/24287/monitor-resolution-messed-up-monitor-is-unknown/24294#24294
[21:20] <lhammonds> Kept fiddling with the command prompt version and then updating the script version until it worked....took about 20 different combinations before I got it. LOL
[21:20] <gry> trism, thank you.
[21:20] <Nightwalkerkg1> in a sec.
[21:21] <awardle> I have found a distribution based on Ubuntu that is completely ignoring the copyright on it. It makes no reference at all about it using Ubuntu or the license conditions that come with it. Where should I report this to?
[21:21] <d3f4c3d> maxx878, i have 12 nics
[21:21] <riffautae> awardle: what is the name of the distro
[21:21] <EvilResistance> awardle:  which distribution?
[21:21] <lhammonds> awardle, where at?
[21:21] <awardle> It is a ask4 Broadband live disk
[21:21] <maxx878> d3f4c3d, you mean 12 nics in 1 pc
[21:21] <EvilResistance> awardle:  and you know its based off of Ubuntu how?/
[21:21] <d3f4c3d> correct
[21:22] <awardle> I was given it by the Broadband company.
[21:22] <riffautae> awardle: if they dont use any of the art or trademarks they prolly dont have to actually
[21:22] <awardle> Because when it booted it had the Ubuntu logo on it.
[21:22] <maxx878> d3f4c3d, can u paste the output of lspci -v please
[21:22] <awardle> It used the Ubuntu splash screen
[21:22] <Nightwalkerkg1> riffautae http://paste.ubuntu.com/732448/ here it is
[21:22] <d3f4c3d> maxx878, sure but why, im just curious
[21:23] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: yea your edid is messed up hmm
[21:23] <maxx878> d3f4c3d, i am too
[21:23] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: somehow it needs to be overridden
[21:24] <d3f4c3d> maxx878, theres just 4 nic cards output (each nic is quadro port) thats it
[21:24] <Nightwalkerkg1> Ok riffautae can you give me the command to install the open source drivers.Like when i first installed the ubuntu.And to delete evrything else.
[21:24] <TML-prv> My box keeps saying "*** /dev/sdc1 will be checked for errors at next reboot ***" even though I've rebooted and run fsck on /dev/sdc1, the latter of which happily claims "/dev/sdc1: clean, 81722/8552448 files, 18827932/34180287 blocks"
[21:24] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: well it looks like the open source drivers are installed right, its your monitor that is being silly
[21:24] <d3f4c3d> i need to look into /etc/network/if-*.d script
[21:24] <Nightwalkerkg1> Ok,any idea gow to fix it? :D
[21:24] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: or the open source drivers dont know how to read your edid :P i am looking to see how to override it
[21:25] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: what monitor do you have?
[21:25] <Nightwalkerkg1> One sec.
[21:25] <maxx878> d3f4c3d, why that +8 ..??
[21:25] <Nightwalkerkg1> It's an LG FLATRON ez T710B.
[21:25] <d3f4c3d>  maxx878 what ?
[21:25] <kernelpanicker> I'm having a hard time mounting a partition in the LVM of a USB drive... any tips?
[21:26] <Nightwalkerkg1> The one with the big "background" :D
[21:26] <maxx878> d3f4c3d, you are confused and you are confusing other too..so address it well..
[21:26] <d3f4c3d> maxx878, just drop it you have no idea what you talking about
[21:27] <maxx878> d3f4c3d, yes...sorry about it..
[21:27] <d3f4c3d> maxx878, all i needed was to add auto eth1
[21:27] <d3f4c3d> iface eth1 inet manual
[21:27] <d3f4c3d> up ifconfig eth1 up
[21:27] <awardle> This is the screen before booting. http://imagebin.org/183207
[21:27] <d3f4c3d> in my /etc/network/interfaces
[21:28] <kernelpanicker> The error is Error starting Volume Group: Failed to execute child process "vgchange" (no such file or directory)
[21:28] <awardle> While booting http://imagebin.org/183208
[21:29] <awardle> And after it boots. http://imagebin.org/183210
[21:29] <d3f4c3d> maxx878, i apreciate the effort though
[21:30] <maxx878> d3f4c3d, you don't give us the output.. :((
[21:30] <d3f4c3d> sudo service networking restart
[21:30] <d3f4c3d> doesnt work :(
[21:30] <d3f4c3d> unknown instance
[21:30] <ccmonster> hey guys, how do i get rid of the 'chat' on the messaging dropdown, or atleast make pidgin the default
[21:31] <Eltu> Hello. I have a problem reinstalling a package - apache2. My /etc/apache2 folder was deleted, so I ran apt-get remove apache2, followed by apt-get install apache2 - but the folder is still empty and apache has not been installed again. What do I need to do, to completely reinstall it?
[21:31] <d3f4c3d> maxx878, perfect it worked, troubleshooting skills come from diggin in right direction... i learned it hard way
[21:31] <Nightwalkerkg1> riffautae: any luck?
[21:31] <Eltu> Also tried purge, did not work either
[21:31] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: put this in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf  http://paste.ubuntu.com/732457/
[21:31] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: if that doesnt work i have more lines we can add
[21:32] <Nightwalkerkg1> Sure thing.
[21:32] <maxx878> d3f4c3d, can you share it with us
[21:32] <d3f4c3d> maxx878, theres nothing to share - there was 12 nics like i said
[21:32] <d3f4c3d> they were visible in ifconfig -a
[21:32] <d3f4c3d> but not in ifconfig
[21:32] <d3f4c3d> i had to add them into /etc/network/interfaces but my requirement was NOT to give them IP addresses
[21:33] <Nightwalkerkg1> Riffuatae no xorg.conf there
[21:33] <maxx878> d3f4c3d, if you restart you again will have the same problem so you will require a script..
[21:33] <Nightwalkerkg1> *riffautae
[21:33] <d3f4c3d> so solution was to add "auto ethX
[21:33] <d3f4c3d> iface ethX inet manual
[21:33] <d3f4c3d> up ifconfig ethX up" where X is the number of nic
[21:34] <maxx878> d3f4c3d, i i know that ..:))
[21:34] <d3f4c3d> maxx878, thats also incorrect since i just tested it with service networking start and all interfaces went up, however i should restart
[21:34] <trism> ccmonster: uninstall empathy and the chat item will disappear (after you log out/back in anyway)
[21:35] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: make one :)
[21:35] <d3f4c3d> maxx878, well if you knew that then that maybe would be more logical to propose instead of looking into lspci outputs, anyways up to reboot and test now :)
[21:35] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: or is there a xorg.conf.d ?
[21:35] <Nightwalkerkg1> Nope and i cant make a new one
[21:35] <Peter_> hi i have screwed up with NVIDIA-drivers now i cant access the GUI, can someone help me?
[21:35] <Halabund> suddenly everything unity related (tab switcher, launcher, etc.) insists on staying always in the background, under other windows.  How can I fix without loggin out and in again?
[21:35] <maxx878> d3f4c3d, its not for me dear for other if they could have this problem :)
[21:36] <Nightwalkerkg1> when i use right click make new document is unavalable
[21:36] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: you have to do it as root, such as sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:36] <Nightwalkerkg1> oh ok.
[21:36] <Peter_> won't work
[21:36] <mrhankeysrevenge> #ubuntu-us-ca
[21:36] <maxx878> riffautae, before you could make any changes to /etc/x11/xorg.conf please back it up
[21:36] <adsbygoogle> I am trying to change the open-file-limit in 10.04.  I have modified the /etc/security/limits.conf file but the changes are not taking.  Any suggestions?
[21:36] <riffautae> maxx878: he doesnt have one yet
[21:37] <d3f4c3d> maxx878, glad i could help i gues
[21:37] <riffautae> maxx878: nothign t oback up
[21:37] <Peter_> hi i have screwed up with NVIDIA-drivers now i cant access the GUI, can someone help me?
[21:37] <d3f4c3d> farewell, my advice maxx878 when troubleshooting try to look from different perspectives on the issue
[21:37] <riffautae> Peter_: what is happening? also can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[21:37] <maxx878> its always to backup xorg.. even if you don't need to modify
[21:37] <Nightwalkerkg1> riffautae made it
[21:38] <usuario> hola a todos a todas @
[21:38] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: ?
[21:38] <riffautae> maxx878: the file doesnt exist. you cant backup something that doesnt exist
[21:38] <Peter_> @riffautae i can't copy anything without GUI.....
[21:38] <Nightwalkerkg1> I made a xorg.conf and pasted it in
[21:38] <Nightwalkerkg1> saved it.
[21:38] <Nightwalkerkg1> Should i restart now?
[21:39] <riffautae> Nightwalkerkg1: yea
[21:39] <Nightwalkerkg1> Back in a sec.
[21:39] <riffautae> Peter_: sorry, http://linuxers.org/article/pastebinit-command-line-pastebin-client
[21:39] <riffautae> Peter_: user control-alt-f2 to get to a command line if you were not dropped to one automaticly

[21:41] <iceroot> ProxXy: ##windows
[21:41] <iceroot> !alis | ProxXy
[21:42] <pfifo> is there a tool that can defrag a NTFS partition available in the repos?
[21:43] <iceroot> pfifo: no
[21:43] <pfifo> okay :(
[21:44] <maxx878> pfifo, what you really want to do..
[21:44] <nightwalkerkg> riffautae
[21:44] <riffautae> nightwalkerkg: hi
[21:44] <alexxio_> maxx878, i'm still here...i didnt solve at all :(
[21:44] <nightwalkerkg> Goldstar Company Ltd 16"
[21:44] <nightwalkerkg> with red color over it
[21:44] <alexxio_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/732461/
[21:44] <nightwalkerkg> and got 2 new resolutions
[21:44] <nightwalkerkg> :D
[21:45] <maxx878> alexxio_, so windows are in sda1 and you mounted grub in sda2 | am i right
[21:45] <pfifo> maxx878, I want to defragment a NTFS partition, would be nice if I could do it from linux, but looks like I need to boot into windows todo this
[21:45] <alexxio_> nope maxx878
[21:45] <nightwalkerkg> Got the 1152x864,it's what i have been looking for. :D
[21:45] <Camulus> I am trying to get a DoD CAC to work with Ubuntu 11.10  and Firefox 7.0.1. I have the card reader installed and "Pcsc_scan" will  show the reader and the card but when I try to open Firefox with the  card inserted it will not open. Alternatively, if Firefox is open and I  insert the card, Firefox will crash and not restart until the card is  removed.
[21:45] <alexxio_> let's do it simple
[21:45] <nightwalkerkg> Thnaks dude.
[21:45] <alexxio_> i runned boot repair
[21:45] <riffautae> nightwalkerkg: :D your welcome
[21:45] <alexxio_> boot-repair didn't repair
[21:46] <alexxio_> after i see grub menu
[21:46] <maxx878> pfifo, defrag only exist in windows so you want it get there ..Linux is different concept
[21:46] <nightwalkerkg> Oh,riffautae is normal that my monitor name has rade over it?
[21:46] <nightwalkerkg> :P :D
[21:46] <alexxio_> ubuntu loads; otherwise if i select windows , a black screen appear and doesnt' boot
[21:47] <lexflex> why is linux so damn user unfriendly?
[21:47] <alexxio_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/732461/
[21:47] <iceroot> lexflex: why should the kernel be userfriendly?
[21:47] <riffautae> nightwalkerkg: is that displayed on the screen? that is kinda weird. make sure the verticle refresh rate is correct
[21:47] <iceroot> lexflex: normally you dont have anything to do with the kernel
[21:47] <pfifo> maxx878, I could write a program that defrags NTFS partitions, im suprised noone has made one yet
[21:47] <lexflex> iceroot: hi there!
[21:47] <riffautae> nightwalkerkg: the config i gave you limits it to 70 but that might be too high for that resolution
[21:47] <nightwalkerkg> riffautae no,not on the screen on the Display properities.
[21:48] <riffautae> nightwalkerkg: strange that it is red
[21:48] <lexflex> iceroot: actually i was judging all linux by the ubuntu dist
[21:48] <alexxio_> maxx878, at grub prompt, if i press e on windows line and delete some character after uuid 7ACAXXXXXXX , it STARTS!!!how can i fix it?
[21:49] <lexflex> iceroot: corrected it would be: why is ubuntu so damn user unfriendly?
[21:49] <iceroot> alexxio_: edit /etc/default/grub  which should contain the same as the line you edited
[21:49] <iceroot> lexflex: you have a support question?
[21:49] <maxx878> alexxio_, if could boot ubuntu you can see windows partitions
[21:50] <lexflex> iceroot: i can't get my ubuntu to switch the main monitor back to the macbook display when i pull out the secondary monitor.
[21:50] <maxx878> alexxio_, if could boot ubuntu you can see windows partitions, drive files etc...
[21:50] <iceroot> lexflex: use the fn keys
[21:50] <alexxio_> maxx878, and so?
[21:50] <lexflex> iceroot: not sure how?
[21:51] <iceroot> lexflex: i guess this strange apple-thing should have something like an FN key
[21:51] <iceroot> lexflex: but i never used it so i dont know
[21:51] <lexflex> iceroot: yes it does, my logitech keyboard doesnt
[21:51] <iceroot> lexflex: try the fn keys, normally with f5
[21:52] <lexflex> iceroot: that doesn't do anything. i might say i had to configure this in nvidia configs, not standard ubuntu.
[21:52] <nightwalkerkg> Ok,the Displays prop. just got backo to Unknow and 1024x768.But the resolution on the screen is like i want it.
[21:52] <lexflex> iceroot: standard ubuntu cant handle it as it seems
[21:52] <Eltu> Posting my earlier question again, in case someone has time:
[21:52] <nightwalkerkg> :S
[21:52] <Eltu> 22:31 <Eltu> Hello. I have a problem reinstalling a package - apache2. My /etc/apache2 folder was deleted, so I ran apt-get remove apache2, followed by apt-get install apache2 - but the folder is still empty and apache has not been installed again. What do I need to do, to completely reinstall it?
[21:52] <iceroot> !mac | lexflex
[21:53] <iceroot> lexflex: maybe there are hints to enable the fn keys
[21:55] <lexflex> iceroot: it says that keyboard should work fine
[21:56] <lexflex> iceroot: in fact i think there is a workaround with disper, or auto-disper. but i can't seem to figure out how to install it
[21:56] <CJKay> Hi guys, how can I install a GUI-less Ubuntu? I'm looking for a base to build on where I won't break a hundred dependencies removing Unity and what-not
[21:57] <CJKay> I'm just installing the alternative CD now but it looks like it's installing Gnome and friends anyway
[21:57] <lexflex> iceroot: it's in the launchpad.net, some ppa thing. but i cant find a setup or something to install it
[21:57] <gimpy132> I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 Server x64 with ubuntu-desktop installed (I wanted LVM during the install).  If I install the lxde package will I be able to simply select lxde or gnome when gdm comes up?
[21:57] <gimpy132> CJKay: Server editition has no GUI unless you install one.
[21:57] <iceroot> !purekde | CJKay (only use the part for removing)
[21:57] <alexxio3333> aaa
[21:58] <alexxio3333> a
[21:58] <CJKay> Excellent. Is there any way to disable installing a GUI with the alternative CD? My ISP doesn't like me downloading things very much heh
[21:58] <alexxio3333> ok sorry
[21:58] <CJKay> If not I'll grab hold of the server edition
[21:58] <iceroot> lexflex: you have to add the ppa "sudo add-apt-repository foobar && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install foobar"
[21:58] <lexflex> foobar is replaced by?
[21:58] <lexflex> iceroot: foobar is replaced by?
[21:58] <iceroot> CJKay: alternate is not downlaoding from the net, its already in the cd
[21:58] <iceroot> lexflex: the ppa
[21:59] <CJKay> iceroot: I realise, but can I configure what is installed from the CD?
[21:59] <lexflex> iceroot: ppa:disper-dev/ppa    ?
[21:59] <balr0g> hello, please help with this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/732483/ people

[22:09] <CJKay> red_one: Turn off all window effects, 3D acceleration off if you can (I can't rememeber if you can), etc.
[22:09] <pawtracks> iceroot:  You mean they fixed it but they have yet to release the update?
[22:09] <robertzaccour> CJKay, serious answers only please. I wasn't the one that p'd in your cheerios this morning
[22:09] <CJKay> If you use compiz, revert to Metacity
[22:09] <red_one> Hm
[22:10] <balr0g> CJKay, http://paste.ubuntu.com/732500/
[22:10] <CJKay> Check the power settings
[22:10] <Guest90217> HALLLOOO WHO HELP ME ??? PLEASE
[22:10] <ghulagab> who the fuck is Metacity?
[22:10] <iceroot> pawtracks: something like that yes
[22:10] <iceroot> pawtracks: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/859474/comments/22  that is thr workaround until the fix is released
[22:10] <CJKay> balr0g: Just do `sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev` without the others
[22:11] <guntbert> !language | ghulagab
[22:11] <pawtracks> iceroot: Thanks for the Help!
[22:11] <iceroot> pawtracks: you are welcome
[22:11] <ghulagab> w t f is Metacity?
[22:11] <CJKay> ghulagab: Metacity is a window manager
[22:11] <red_one> CJKay: the exhaust fan on my laptop is going constantly, i don't think it does this using windows. i'm not sure if it's an "extra heat" issue, or a "fan control" issue.
[22:12] <balr0g> CJKay, already done that, i've used apt-cache search, look: http://paste.ubuntu.com/732512/
[22:12] <robertzaccour> I have a sound I want to use for login. I replaced the file "desktop-login.ogg" and replaced it with a file I converted to ogg. I deleted desktop-login.ogg and pasted my audio file in that folder, then renamed it desktop-login.ogg. login and no sound. yes the file makes a sound when I play it.
[22:12] <CJKay> red_one: Integrated graphics card?
[22:13] <h00k> ghulagab: you need to mind the language, acronyms count as well.
[22:13] <h00k> !info metacity | ghulagab
[22:13] <robertzaccour> I thought a simple file swap would do it. I deleted the login sound file and pasted the sound i wanted renaming it desktop-login.ogg. I don't know what else I can possibly do.
[22:14] <h00k> ghulagab: also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Metacity
[22:14] <red_one> CJKay: ATI HD 4300 (mobile)
[22:14] <eriklegeek> hello tout le monde
[22:14] <ghulagab> thank you very much, my friend!
[22:14] <CJKay> balr0g: What are you trying to compile?
[22:14] <CJKay> red_one: Switchable or permanent?
[22:14] <balr0g> CJKay, this: https://github.com/tialaramex/sparql-query/
[22:15] <CJKay> red_one: As in, can you switch to integrated graphics on startup?
[22:15] <lexflex> iceroot: i sincerely do not know which one..
[22:15] <red_one> CJKay: hm. I don't know. lspci only lists one VGA controller
[22:15] <Guest90961> Hello everyone. Is anyone else having trouble to connect on Windows Live with Empathy ?
[22:15] <red_one> CJKay: you mean in bios?
[22:15] <iceroot> lexflex: every os has it pro and contra
[22:16] <red_one> I hadn't considered that. hm.
[22:16] <iceroot> Guest90961: its a issue on the msn server/routing in the network
[22:17] <CJKay> red_one: Not necessarily, but most likely. Some laptops like mine come with switchable graphics on demand
[22:17] <Guest90961> iceroot: Oh, ok. Microsoft fiddling with the protocols again ?
[22:17] <CJKay> nVidia Optimus
[22:17] <yrg> What is the name of the appearance management program in Ubuntu before 11.10? (It let me choose colours, window border styles, icons, etc.)
[22:17] <iceroot> Guest90961: no, they changed servers/or the routing is at the moment incorrect
[22:17] <wiredfool1> oneiric bug: something my kid did started ~ 600 gnome-screenshot processes, causing the vm subsystem and the OOM killer to battle with them at a load average of 48 for ~ 20 minutes before the OOM killer found compiz, and killed it. Console was severely laggy, requiring 30 seconds for the mouse to update position.
[22:17] <bdrewery> yrg: might be compiz settings manager
[22:17] <Guest90961> iceroot: Ok, thanks
[22:18] <bdrewery> yrg: it still works with 11.10/unity
[22:18] <bdrewery> yrg: but can cause instability
[22:18] <CJKay> yrg: The name in the title or the executable name?
[22:18] <balr0g> CJKay, you leave me!! =P
[22:18] <iceroot> Guest90961: if the servers have changed there will be a fix soon, if it is a routing issue we cant do anything, in boh cases you have to wait
[22:19] <pawtracks> iceroot: I can't save the file I need to edit due to permission errors. The file is owned by "root". What should I do?
[22:19] <iceroot> wiredfool1: doesnt sound like a bug
[22:19] <CJKay> balr0g: Hm wha'/
[22:19] <balr0g> CJKay, this: https://github.com/tialaramex/sparql-query/
[22:19] <iceroot> pawtracks: use sudo
[22:19] <iceroot> !sudo | pawtracks
[22:19] <wiredfool1> 600 instances of gnome-screenshot?
[22:19] <lexflex> iceroot: yes i know. i was so hoping for linux to suit me but heck.. i am trying to do a basic thing and i have to download packages and use command line and stuff.
[22:19] <iceroot> wiredfool1: if you press 600 times the print-key
[22:19] <Guest90961> iceroot: Yeah, as usual with that kind of problems. I figured it was something like that but thanks for clarifying, now I know the problem isn't on my side.
[22:20] <pawtracks> iceroot: How do I edit a file with sudo :/
[22:20] <iceroot> pawtracks: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[22:20] <CJKay> balr0g: You have readline?
[22:20] <CJKay> pawtracks: sudo gedit <file>
[22:20] <pawtracks> Thanks
[22:20] <balr0g> CJKay, i think i have to install it once... checking that...
[22:20] <wiredfool1> iceroot: is there any log of that getting invoked?
[22:21] <iceroot> wiredfool1: about the oom-killer? /var/log/syslog
[22:21] <wiredfool1> no, the print key
[22:21] <CJKay> balr0g: Try reinstalling pkgconfig?
[22:21] <wiredfool1> I found the logs for the OOm killer
[22:21] <iceroot> lexflex: there are other systems where you cant do anything if a problem is happening
[22:21] <CJKay> Other than that I'm out of ideas
[22:21] <fresh_kns> j#gays
[22:21] <iceroot> lexflex: instead of reboot/reinstall
[22:21] <balr0g> CJKay, checking readline thing
[22:22] <mkanyicy> sudo halt is hanging in oneiric
[22:22] <mkanyicy> how can i fix that?
[22:22] <iceroot> lexflex: and of course you can do the stuff also with a gui, adding ppa with a gui and so on
[22:23] <riffautae> mkanyicy: doesnt poweroff or hanging some place else?
[22:23] <iceroot> lexflex: but we dont like to descripe the whole click click click click story here, just commands, independed from the gui you are using
[22:23] <mkanyicy> riffautae, yes it does not power off
[22:23] <iceroot> lexflex: if we want to give gui support, we first have to know if you are using lxde, xfce4, gnome2, gnome3, unity, kde and so on
[22:23] <CJKay> mkanyicy: Confirmed
[22:24] <iceroot> lexflex: but all system are using the bash, so its the easiest way
[22:24] <riffautae> mkanyicy: on some systems halt is not supposed to do that, use shutdown or poweroff
[22:24] <CJKay> mkanyicy: Is there a reason not to use shutdown -h
[22:24] <CJKay> shutdown -h now will halt and power off
[22:24] <kharloss> hi there. i have a strange problem. 3 days ago i encountered a big problem. at 12 ( i`m GMT + 2) PM  my webserver stop responding / extremly slow conection using ssh. I see there is a large amount of data copied ( backup something maybe, or i don`t know) - i see this on hdd led, and harddisk sound like verry busy one.  i`m not a power user, i`m more a webdesigner.  somebody can help ? ( i
[22:24] <kharloss> mention, if i restart my webserver, everything it`s ok after) but restarting my server every night, ofcourse isn`t a solution. thanks in advance
[22:25] <CJKay> Is it doing it now?
[22:25] <mkanyicy> CJKay, I stopped using shutdown some years ago when it took me to recovery mode instead of halting
[22:25] <iceroot> kharloss: have a look with "top" and "iotop" what is causing a high load
[22:25] <lexflex> iceroot: okay i get that command line thing. i didn't figure out though, how to install it gui-style. and on the ppa-site you can't just download a setup. anyway. installation worked out fine since i got some good help of yours.
[22:25] <iceroot> kharloss: without that info its not possible to help
[22:25] <bonez2046> floppy won't work? Anyone know how to troubleshoot floppy?
[22:25] <iceroot> lexflex: you can always download a *.deb file and double click it to install it (like an exe in windows)
[22:26] <CJKay> mkanyicy: Try it again, halt can only be guaranteed to... well... halt the kernel. Some computers don't automatically power off on a halt instruction
[22:26] <mkanyicy> riffautae, ok, I will try 'poweroff' and/or 'shutdown' next time i halt my system
[22:26] <CJKay> Don't forget the -h option
[22:26] <kharloss> iceroot : thanks, i`ll do this when i can - right now is extremely slow .. i`m ssh`ing and take maybe 2 minutes until i can login
[22:26] <iceroot> kharloss: maybe a bad connection instead of a high load
[22:26] <yrg> CJKay, the executable name
[22:26] <iceroot> kharloss: you got a good result when ping the server?
[22:26] <mkanyicy> CJKay, its funny that this computer has been halting with halt command before 11.10
[22:27] <CJKay> kharloss: What does `free` show?
[22:27] <CJKay> mkanyicy: Times change hehe
[22:27] <mkanyicy> CJKay, smh
[22:27] <CJKay> But if shutdown -h doesn't shutdown your system, that's probably more of a bug than halt not shutting it down
[22:28] <kharloss> CJKay, i have to wait maybe 2 minutes i can type  free .. :)
[22:28] <CJKay> Haha
[22:28] <iceroot> kharloss: ping the server from your client
[22:28] <elz89> mkanyicy: try 'sudo shutdown -Ph now'
[22:29] <iceroot> kharloss: ping -c 4 hostname
[22:29] <thorn__> hello!!! When I print to one printer after selecting it (after installing the drivers from Brother) the lights on the other printer light up and the first printer doesn't respond. lsusb shows the printers (without differentiation) on Bus 001 and Device 007 and 002 respectively. Please help.
[22:29] <nimean> how to unload nouveau module and uninstall it so I can get this nvidia driver compiled?
[22:29] <nimean> anyone?
[22:29] <balr0g> CJKay, i tried installing readline and still not working... i think this time i can figure another alternatives, will try those... tks anyway
[22:30] <iceroot> nimean: sudo modprobe -r modulname after that remove the package with sudo apt-get remove
[22:30] <mkanyicy> elz89, its quite a long stuff to type
[22:30] <CJKay> balr0g: No problem. G'luck!
[22:31] <mkanyicy> i want halt back :(
[22:32] <CJKay> nimean: `sudo modprobe -r nouveau && gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist` then add 'nouveau' to the list
[22:32] <elz89> mkanyicy: it is one more letter?
[22:32] <thorn__> hello!!! When I print to one printer after selecting it (after installing the drivers from Brother) the lights on the other printer light up and the first printer doesn't respond. lsusb shows the printers (without differentiation) on Bus 001 and Device 007 and 002 respectively. Please help.
[22:33] <mkanyicy> elz89, sudo shutdown -Phew now
[22:33] <mkanyicy> dead
[22:35] <mkanyicy> thorn__, so your two printers are Brothers?
[22:36] <kubuntuianer> I bought a card reader (Akasa AK-ICR-11) which also has bluetooth. Bluetooth is working an lsusb show me "Bus 001 Device 007: ID 058f:6362 Alcor Micro Corp. Flash Card Reader/Writer". But the reader is not working. What can I do?
[22:36] <mkanyicy> kubuntuianer, do you have a card on it?
[22:37] <kubuntuianer> mkanyicy yes
[22:38] <mkanyicy> kubuntuianer, i think you should have something like /dev/mmc*
[22:39] <jtreminio> Hello guys - how can I manually edit keyboard shortcuts in Ubuntu?
[22:39] <jtreminio> Manually edit shortcuts as in not using the GUI. I'm trying to remap CTRL Q to do nothing, but typing in CTRL Q in the GUI closes the GUI (d'oh!)
[22:39] <mkanyicy>   jtreminio in keyboard
[22:40] <jtreminio> mkanyicy, trying to do it via the keyboard GUI will close the GUI because I'm trying to remap CTRL Q.
[22:41] <kubuntuianer> mkanyicy I put in my microsd so I assume there should be something like /dev/microsd. But there is nothing like that.
[22:41] <WilliamAbignale> this is a test
[22:41] <jtreminio> this is a response
[22:41] <KM0201> jtreminio: lol
[22:42] <WilliamAbignale> this is another test
[22:42] <WilliamAbignale> that better not be the response.
[22:42] <mkanyicy> kubuntuianer, its not gonna be called 'microsd'
[22:42] <WilliamAbignale> #list
[22:42] <WilliamAbignale> !list
[22:42] <WilliamAbignale> !alis
[22:42] <mkanyicy> kubuntuianer, i think it should be /dev/mmcblk0p1
[22:43] <WilliamAbignale> !help
[22:43] <WilliamAbignale> !patience
[22:44] <lighta> hi guys, quick question, what's the eclipse version in 10.10 repository ?
[22:44] <bsmith093> why does ubuntu always hold back kernel upgrades so i have to apt get them manually
[22:44] <littlebir> how could I give the user ubuntu root priviliges without having to use sudo?
[22:44] <iceroot> !info eclipse maverick
[22:44] <Peter_> thx community bb
[22:44] <KM0201> littlebir: thats not supported here
[22:45] <iceroot> lighta: ^
[22:45] <mkanyicy> lighta, you meant 10.10 or 11.10?
[22:45] <kubuntuianer> mkanyicy, unfortunately there isn't /dev/mmcblk0p1 or anything similar
[22:45] <lexflex> iceroot: seems like after all this package works! awesome. now i can do this with terminal commands
[22:45] <iceroot> lexflex: great, what was the issue first?
[22:45] <lighta> ah hmm 11.10 mkanyicy sorry, oneric
[22:45] <Gentoo64> littlebir, are you new to linux?
[22:45] <iceroot> !info eclipse | lighta
[22:45] <CJKay> bsmith093: Stability
[22:46] <CJKay> Most likely anyway
[22:46] <lexflex> iceroot: that it somehow crashed all programs running
[22:46] <iceroot> lexflex: hm ok
[22:46] <bsmith093> CJKay: yes but EVERY SINGLE ONE!?! really?
[22:46] <lexflex> iceroot: now it does it quite smoothly.. all i need now is to automate those commands somehow, like with a shortcut
[22:46] <CJKay> bsmith093: Well what version are you so desperate to update to
[22:46] <CJKay> ?
[22:46] <CJKay> 3.2?
[22:47] <iceroot> !shortcut | lexflex
[22:47] <lighta> hmm thx iceroot, 3.7 is indigo right ? anyone having trouble with android dev with indigo eclipse ? worked fine with gallileo damn !
[22:47] <iceroot> lighta: #android
[22:47] <bsmith093> i mean theres a kernel upgrade in the queue and i always have to manaully select those pacakges for updating, its annoying ,is all
[22:48] <CJKay> Well there's usually not a massive urgency to update to a new kernel every time one comes out
[22:48] <iceroot> bsmith093: why you have to manually pick them?
[22:48] <CJKay> bsmith093: Just do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and see if it's on there
[22:49] <Gooses> Having problems viewing a site that streams TV.  The Primary stream is using Silverlight 4, but Linux Moonlight mono project only supports Firefox and Chrome to Silverlight v2.  The alternative is basic stream which appears to default to Gnome Player which is rendering horribly.  Is there an alternative to Gnome Player in the browser?
[22:49] <bsmith093> i have to do this  everytime the linux kernel is upgraded in the ubuntu repos sudo apt-get upgrade linux-generic linux-headers-generic linux-image linux-image-generic
[22:49] <iceroot> bsmith093: wrong
[22:49] <iceroot> bsmith093: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade   will do the job
[22:50] <riffautae> iceroot: 'wrong' is pretty blunt
[22:50] <bsmith093> iceroot: yes but i dont want the new version, im happy with lucid
[22:50] <iceroot> bsmith093: dist-upgrade is not updating the ubuntu-version
[22:50] <riffautae> bsmith093: it doesnt update you to new ubunt uversions
[22:50] <iceroot> bsmith093: man apt-get  to see the difference in "upgrade" and "dist-upgrade"
[22:50] <iceroot> bsmith093: dist-upgrade is excatly what you want
[22:50] <Gentoo64> bsmith093, what do you need all the new kernels for? the sake of it?
[22:51] <bsmith093> really, i thought thats "exactly" what dist-upgrade meant
[22:51] <iceroot> bsmith093: no
[22:51] <CJKay> No
[22:51] <elz89> bsmith093: you are being a tad too literal
[22:51] <bsmith093> i figure the ubutnu devs push them out, i should probably have them
[22:51] <riffautae> Gentoo64: do you get kernel security updates otherwise?
[22:51] <Gentoo64> yes
[22:51] <riffautae> k
[22:51] <Gentoo64> i think they put them in
[22:51] <iceroot> bsmith093: dist-upgrade means "update packages when also a depened package will change" which is the fact for the kernel metapackage because they are pulling new kernel packaghes
[22:51] <brylie> A friend just called me and said that the wireless icon is gone from the Unity notification area. How can we restore the network icon?
[22:52] <bsmith093> elz89: well, now I know, so thanks for the info
[22:52] <lexflex> iceroot: works! thank you
[22:52] <iceroot> lexflex: find another os with such a good support like here in #ubuntu :)
[22:53] <iceroot> lexflex: for free of course :)
[22:53] <lexflex> iceroot: i know, that spirit is unique
[22:54] <elz89> iceroot: have you not seen #openmediavault
[22:54] <bonhoffer> i can set my display, but i can't see the window i'm looking at now
[22:54] <bonhoffer> if i do mirror displays, the best i can see is 1024 x768
[22:55] <bonhoffer> but if i turn off mirror displays i can see the right resolution, but i have to switch monitors and i lose my current screen
[22:55] <lexflex> iceroot: but the shortcuts don't work well damn.. are there nay rules?
[22:56] <iceroot> lexflex: never used them and have to sleep now
[22:56] <julian__> i have a problema.. with the name of files... (stat -121-129-1311080117.60561.wav)
[22:56] <iceroot> lexflex: maybe i will have a look tomorow
[22:56] <lexflex> iceroot: okay thank you, good night
[22:56] <julian__> stat: opción inválida -- 1
[22:56] <julian__> Pruebe `stat --help' para más información.
[22:56] <lexflex> iceroot: every night is linux night ;)
[22:56] <iceroot> julian__: use "-123456.wav"
[22:57] <bonhoffer> the resolution is perfect -- but it is treating my computer like it has two monitors
[22:57] <iceroot> julian__: or use "your command -- -123456.wav
[22:57] <bonhoffer> and i can't get any windows on the new (correct) screen
[22:57] <bonhoffer> i am using intel hd 3000 drivers
[22:58] <bonhoffer> i don't have a dual monitor setup
[22:58] <bjorkintosh> is there a way to restore the bar on top?
[22:58] <bjorkintosh> it seems to be lost.
[22:58] <julian__> iceroot,  thanks
[22:58] <bjorkintosh> and the default icons are gone. this s unity
[22:59] <bonhoffer> i would like to disable the mirroring -- and just go with the recognized monitor
[23:01] <bonhoffer> so i am thinking this is an ubuntu bug -- what is the bug tracker/submission process for ubuntu?
[23:01] <tensorpudding> launchpad
[23:01] <tensorpudding> !launchpad
[23:01] <bonhoffer> tensorpudding, thanks -- have you heard of a phantom monitor getting detected?
[23:02] <bonhoffer> that is "unknown"
[23:02] <tensorpudding> no
[23:02] <bonhoffer> with no video card or extra monitor connected
[23:02] <bonhoffer> yeah -- pretty strange
[23:03] <bonhoffer> don't see a bug logged for this yet -- is there a dev channel?
[23:04] <bonhoffer> is 11.10 in beta?
[23:04] <bonhoffer> or is there a way to remove monitors?
[23:05] <notlistening> Right I have a laptop using the openchrome drivers for a VIA display card. I have tried to enable these driver for it to always default back to the software render, so I have identified that it needs this file which is missing unichrome_dri.so. Apt tells me is is in this package libbgl1-mesa-dri but when i install that package the .so file is not there. Any ideas?
[23:07] <littlebir> Please login as the ubuntu user rather than root user.
[23:07] <littlebir> how do I enable the root to login with ssh?
[23:08] <littlebir> I understand that it is not always a good idea, but i need to
[23:08] <kneeki> Using the nVidia GTS 450 and Gnome3, is it recommended to use the proprietary drivers?
[23:09] <bonhoffer> before i submit this, is there a way to delete an 'unknown monitor'
[23:10] <bonhoffer> detect displays brings up this unknown monitor
[23:11] <Pancakez> empathy is suddenly refusing to connect my msn account (sits at "Connecting..." forever)  but other msn clients work.  Anybody know how I can fix this?
[23:11] <bonhoffer> or is there a command line tool that i can work with the monitors?
[23:12] <lordjj> Hello. Where do I find a conf file responsible for keyboard shortcuts?
[23:12] <bonhoffer> maybe xrandr
[23:13] <jhjh> I'm disappointed with ubuntu
[23:13] <gimpy135> On ubuntu 10.10 x64 how do I switch to lxde?  I installed the lxde package, rebooted, but I'm still in gnome.
[23:13] <jhjh> it spoiled itself again
[23:13] <jhjh> right after install
[23:14] <lordjj> gimpy135 on login, there should be an option
[23:14] <EvilResistance> gimpy135:  you need to specify, before submitting your password at login, what environment you want to use.
[23:14] <jhjh> like damned windows 95
[23:14] <EvilResistance> gimpy135:  at the bar at the bottom.  should say Session:
[23:14] <bonhoffer> anyway - i wrote this up here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/77173/hd-3000-graphics-on-ubuntu-11-10/77181#77181
[23:14] <jhjh> i cannot reinstall os each two days
[23:14] <gimpy135> EvilResistance: There was no option at login.
[23:14] <EvilResistance> gimpy135:  it will be at the bar on the bottom.  been there since 10.04
[23:14] <EvilResistance> gimpy135:  actually its been there since earlier
[23:15] <EvilResistance> gimpy135:  after you choose your user, look at the bottom of the screen
[23:15] <gimpy135> EvilResistance: Where exactly?  Other buttons where there but nothing that let me select lxde.
[23:15] <EvilResistance> there should be a bar going the entire way across.
[23:15] <somsip> gimpy135: If you have auto-sign on without password, you won't see it. Worth checking
[23:15] <gimpy135> ok, I;ll look again.
[23:16] <jhjh> help?

[23:16] <jhjh> DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 11.10"
[23:16] <leex> hi, why do both my systems have the same hwaddr after upgrading from 11.04 to 11.10?
[23:17] <qin> jhjh: !paste !enter !offtopic /topic
[23:17] <qin> jhjh: May help...
[23:17] <lordjj> Where do I find a conf file responsible for keyboard shortcuts?
[23:18] <jhjh> i need it back
[23:18] <pushpop> if my shell freezes how do I restart it from command line
[23:18] <jhjh> now kernel segfaults
[23:18] <lordjj> pushpop do you want to restart the GUI?
[23:19] <pushpop> lordjj no
[23:19] <jhjh> 3.0.0-12-generic ubuntu SEGFAULTS
[23:19] <jhjh> just 2 days after install
[23:21] <ghulagab> Alder, wer will denn was von Euch, Ihr loser!
[23:23] <jhjh> why no help?
[23:23] <escott> !patience | jhjh
[23:24] <notlistening> jhjh: normally there is a hardware issue if your are getting corruption
[23:24] <jhjh> i don't buy that hardware excuses
[23:25] <notlistening> jhjh: try running dmesg and having a look
[23:25] <lufi> hello .is there any way you can clone your current wubi installation?
[23:25] <notlistening> jhjh: then buy a new computer with windows or MacOS
[23:26] <jhjh> notlistening, which dmesg?? haven't you read?
[23:26] <escott> lufi, what do you mean clone?
[23:26] <lordjj> Where do I find a conf file responsible for keyboard shortcuts?
[23:27] <notlistening> jhjh: have you run on the recovery console?
[23:27] <lufi> like creating an installation disk of your curernt packages. so that you dont need to download it all over again
[23:27] <notlistening> jhjh: Otherwise run a live CD
[23:27] <jhjh> and...
[23:28] <lufi> and also .so when i install it to another pc .it has all the other stuff and settings so i don;t need to configure everything all over again
[23:28] <escott> !clone | lufi
[23:28] <notlistening> jhjh: look out for some error like messages :P You are running linux remember
[23:28] <sandbox1> lufi: maybe you should try UCK
[23:29]  * lufi googling UCK
[23:29] <lordjj> lufi  afaik, a wubi install is entirely found inside a folder on an ntfs partition called ubuntu. I wonder if you install wubi on another machine and then replace the ubuntu folder what would happen :P
[23:30] <lufi> i like to a livecd thing. wubi suddenly has some glitches. i hate to lose all me work .i was lucky i solved that 'cannot find GLDR' thing xD
[23:30] <notlistening> Any ideas why i am not getting all the files asscoated with the package I am installing?
[23:30] <jhjh> it has no any errors
[23:31] <jhjh> just segfaults and panics leaving no records
[23:31] <notlistening> jhjh: how did you come to that conclusion
[23:31] <jhjh> which conclusion
[23:32] <notlistening> can you choose the recovery option in grub?
[23:32] <jhjh> no I cannot, that kernel is alone
[23:32] <notlistening> jhjh and you have installed Ubuntu or..?
[23:32] <jhjh> idiotic dmesg log even has no date or time
[23:33] <escott> lordjj, for unity check ccsm. but there is not a file anywhere to my knowledge
[23:33] <jhjh> i pasted exactly what I installed
[23:33] <polepole> http//:xdcc_cancell_x1320793432
[23:33] <lordjj> escott actually for gnome
[23:33] <notlistening> jhjh sorry i was not watching ;P
[23:33] <lufi> hmm this UCK thing looks likethe answer to me problems .thanks guys :)
[23:33] <jhjh> DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 11.10"
[23:33] <escott> lordjj, gnome3 or gnome2
[23:33] <lordjj> escott gnome 2
[23:34] <notlistening> okay jhjh got it :)
[23:34] <jhjh> maybe I should pass some proprietary parameters to kernel to stop it from segfaulting?
[23:34] <ghulagab> Was für ein kleinkariertes gentoo Arschloch
[23:34] <escott> lordjj, i know they can be found in gconf-editor under metacity. there probably is another way, but its been a long time since ive used gnome2
[23:35] <robertzaccour> how do I change my startup sound from the jumanji sound to something else?
[23:35] <escott> !de | ghulagab
[23:35] <notlistening> Anyone else in the room, why would have not have to recovery console installed under grub?
[23:35] <jhjh> real linux can boot bare, apparently proprietary ubuntuTMR cannot
[23:35] <shh3> .
[23:36] <escott> notlistening, the grub menu is hidden by default on single boot systems. you have to press some key to get the menu, is that your question?
[23:36] <MrKeuner> hello, I do not see an entry in /etc/fstab for the internal secondary disk I have, but it is mounted on boot, where else can I see the automount directives in?
[23:36] <escott> MrKeuner, have you checked the uuids from blkid
[23:37] <jhjh> i want to know PROPRIETARY kernel parameters to make ubuntuTM to BOOT without SEGFAULTS in init!
[23:38] <notlistening> escott, not really as he seems to say there is only one option in his grub boot menu unless he is not sure what i mean
[23:38] <jhjh> i have free grub 0.97, not some proprieatary ubuntu junk
[23:38] <escott> !attitude | jhjh
[23:38] <jhjh> sorry
[23:39] <escott> jhjh, it would be helpful to have a better understanding of what is causing the panic. do you see any identifiable strings fly past?
[23:39] <jhjh> escott, it's segfault in init
[23:39] <escott> jhjh, so its not a panic
[23:39] <yagoo> jhjh, yuck
[23:40] <jhjh> then 'attempted to kill init' panic follows
[23:40] <ghulagab> ubottu:fick dich!
[23:40] <yagoo> jhjh, your kernel is f'ed
[23:40] <MrKeuner> escott, no and not sure how to do that
[23:40] <yagoo> jhjh, you needed to apply the ubuntu diffs/patches against any vanilla kernel
[23:40] <MrKeuner> escott, blkid /dev/scd1 does not help
[23:40] <escott> MrKeuner, fstab entries are by uuid, not device name. run blkid to identify what sdc1 is
[23:40] <jhjh> i have real proprietary ubuntu 3.0.1-12 kernel
[23:41] <jhjh> vmlinuz-3.0.0-12-generic
[23:41] <yagoo> jhjh, you mean chocolate or modded.. i wouldn't call it proprietary
[23:41] <notlistening> for some reason the words propietary and ubuntu don't go together quite right :P
[23:41] <escott> jhjh, you can try and modify your grub boot options to include single or text as you prefer, but i havent used grub1 in years so I dont know the grub menu editing commands for grub1
[23:42] <notlistening> e when your on the menu, might be totally wrong with that
[23:43] <MrKeuner> escott, had to use sudo blkid... Now I can see the uuid of the device that is auto mounted, however, that UUID is not in my /etc/fstab
[23:43] <escott> MrKeuner, if blkid is being silent try sudo blkid.
[23:43] <jhjh> ok how to boot it most safely?
[23:44] <MrKeuner> escott, is there a secondary registry for automounts?
[23:44] <OliveGreen> Hi all.
[23:44] <escott> MrKeuner, then it is being mounted by udisks. usually that would require a hotplug or your going into naulitus and clicking on the disak
[23:44] <notlistening> Hi OliveGreen
[23:45] <jhjh> what kernel parameters uses ubuntu with grub2?
[23:45] <escott> jhjh, see if you can boot to singlwe
[23:45] <OliveGreen> I am currently using the Gnome Shell instead of Unity, and would like to make it the default interface (i.e: So, that I don't have to always manually choose it in the login screen). How do I do that?
[23:45] <bsmith093> is this serious? dpkg: warning: parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/available' near line 1609 package 'gpodder-gpodder':
[23:46] <jhjh> escott, which parameter is that?
[23:47] <escott> jhjh single instead of quiet you could also try ro recovery nomodeset
[23:47] <OliveGreen> notlistening, I am currently using the Gnome Shell instead of Unity, and would like to make it the default interface (i.e: So, that I don't have to always manually choose it in the login screen). How do I do that?
[23:48] <MrKeuner> escott, actually I have two disks, one internal connected via SATA which doesn't require clicking, other external connected via usb requires the click, trying to make that a without click...
[23:48] <escott> OliveGreen, it doesnt remember the last used one?
[23:48] <yagoo> OliveGreen, i dont think you can autologin with non-unity with lightdm
[23:48] <yagoo> (lightdm is the default logon screen manageR)
[23:48] <escott> MrKeuner, if you want it to automount add it to fstab
[23:49] <OliveGreen> escott, Well, that's what should happen, but every time it logs in, it automatically chooses Unity. I wonder if there's a way to change that.. :\
[23:49] <MrKeuner> escott, OK but do I need to modify anything at the udisks level too?
[23:49] <escott> MrKeuner, no
[23:49] <MrKeuner> escott, all right, thanks for help
[23:49] <yagoo> anyone here done raid?
[23:49] <escott> OliveGreen, then the accountsservice daemon is not picking up your preference
[23:50] <escott> !anyone | yagoo
[23:50] <jhjh> let;s seee
[23:50] <yagoo> escott, you're really fast on garbage.
[23:50] <yagoo> pff
[23:50] <OliveGreen> escott, I see. So, how do we make it pick it up?
[23:51] <yagoo> escott is a troll.
[23:51] <escott> OliveGreen, that i dont know make sure it is running for one
[23:52] <yagoo> OliveGreen, BUDDY. I've tried this a couple of weeks ago. And someone else as well. You can't autologin with nonunity using lightdm (which is the default logon manager)
[23:52] <conntrack> haha, that won't be happening again
[23:53] <OliveGreen> yagoo, so then I should change the logon manager in order for this to work, right?
[23:53] <yagoo> OliveGreen, you may with gdm. But this means you have to install gdm.
[23:53] <yagoo> OliveGreen, I can't guarantee it. But that's what I would try.. but lightdm won't let you
[23:54] <jayar> how do i remove the bar on the left?
[23:54] <shh3> j
[23:54] <jayar> or hide it
[23:54] <qin> yagoo: In lightdm config you can specify default session.
[23:54] <OliveGreen> yagoo, That's really dumb, to be honest. : \
[23:54] <conntrack> Shit, how do I know what is going on :(
[23:54] <jhjh> no dice
[23:54] <itchee> hey, got a  question about connecting two computers, via serial ports. i have them connected and working {ubuntu using minicom on one, winxp with hyperterminal on ther other). I can type between the two, but here's what iam looking for! I want to type commands into the winxpbix, and have the ubuntu box repeat back to me what ever it is i type.
[23:54] <jhjh> still SEGFAUL?T
[23:54] <yagoo> qin, he wants autologin. not default session
[23:54] <conntrack> Damn sensor
[23:55] <qin> yagoo: ah, then dunno.
[23:55] <HrznDefeated> Hello all.  I have an ubuntu installer that complains it only supports 10.04 LTS when I run it.  I am currently running 11.10.  Is there any convenient way to trick the installer in to thinking my system is 10.04?
[23:55] <HrznDefeated> An application installer that is
[23:56] <jhjh> itchee, you need install SLIP protocol in XP and use telnet
[23:56] <phong__> hi guys, how to setup sftp server?
[23:56] <itchee> this is to simulate a projector responding to me over the serial port. i am tring to write a small app to control the projector, and the projector will repeat what ever i send to it, which will help me insure that my program is working
[23:56] <yagoo> phong__, no need to set that up! just install ssh, and sftp is ready..
[23:56] <phong__> yeah how?
[23:57] <phong__> not i'm that good on ubuntu
[23:57] <yagoo> phong__, just install ssh.
[23:57] <phong__> how to install ssh?
[23:57] <yagoo> phong__, there's many clients that can do sftp.. filezilla ...
[23:57] <yagoo> phong__, use your package manager
[23:57] <phong__> i did install filezilla , but dont know how to setup sftp on it
[23:57] <phong__> i installed it on windows
[23:57] <itchee> jhjh, slip will not help in my case, because the CPU>Projector connection is RS232
[23:58] <yagoo> phong__, can you at least know how to do an ssh shell?
[23:58] <phong__> nope i dont'
[23:58] <yagoo> phong__, well did you even install ssh ?
[23:58] <phong__> i dont know what it is
[23:58] <yagoo> !ssh
[23:58] <itchee> Is the some type of program out there to do this? i am thinking along the lines of old school bbs?
[23:58] <phong__> can i install it with command?
[23:59] <yagoo> sftp runs under ssh (it's a subsystem)
[23:59] <yagoo> phong__, ya..
[23:59] <phong__> ok i have terminal open
[23:59] <phong__> what do i type in?
[23:59] <_spt_> phong__ : see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=429783#post429783
[23:59] <jhjh> itchee, you need null-modem connection to pass TCP/IP data by serial line
[23:59] <yagoo> phong__, try the obvious
[23:59] <phong__> sudo apt install ssh ?
[23:59] <conntrack> !telnet-ssl
[23:59] <yagoo> hmm
[23:59] <yagoo> it's apt-get
[23:59] <phong__> oh
[23:59] <phong__> thanks let me try
[23:59] <jhjh> windows xp has no command shell which uses serial line, only telnel which uses tcp/ip
