[01:22] <truepurple> Can someone help me install smplayer?
[01:34] <nlsthzn> truepurple: hi
[01:34] <truepurple> hi
[01:34] <nlsthzn> truepurple: sudo apt-get install smplayer
[01:34] <thewrath> hey nlsthzn
[01:34] <nlsthzn> thewrath: hi
[01:35] <truepurple> the issue is, I already have mplayer installed, I did so with alot of commands with help from someone, I need a front end that points to that mplayer
[01:35] <truepurple> getting help in ubuntu channel right now.
[01:35] <thewrath> proably compiled it from source i am guessing
[01:36] <truepurple> well I need a front end for it
[01:36] <nlsthzn> Well, smplayer is a front-end for it...
[01:36] <truepurple> it works, but its a pain to open a terminal, type mplayer, drag the icon for the video over, and then theres the lack of menu options and everything needing to be done by hot keys
[01:36] <truepurple> is smplayer the best one for it?
[01:37] <nlsthzn> truepurple: that I don't know...
[01:38] <nlsthzn> but it is a frontend and will give you access to mplayer in a more convinient way - http://smplayer.sourceforge.net for a screen-shot
[01:38] <truepurple> nlsthzn, what do you think of gmplayer?
[01:39] <nlsthzn> truepurple: I haven't used any of these... I am happy with totem or VLC...
[01:41]  * nlsthzn may be back in a bit... all depends :)
[01:41] <truepurple> Still need a front end for my mplayer :p
[03:41] <kamilnadeem> Hi Everyone.
[03:41] <kamilnadeem> I have created a new Blog about Linux and FOSS: http://mknadeem.blogspot.com/ . Please check it and share if you find it interesting or informative.
[03:41] <kamilnadeem> Also The First post introduces non FOSS people to our very own +Ubuntu .
[03:44] <Unit193> It's nice that you have a blog, but you really shouldn't advertise it in a support channel or crosspost into 6 channels (I do think it's agenst guidelines)
[03:45] <holstein> yeah, maybe hit the news channel kamilnadeem and add a story there... that'll get the word out without cross-posting :)
[03:45] <urlin2u> holstein, you sais what I wanted to .
[03:45] <urlin2u> said*
[03:46] <kamilnadeem> Thanks holstein , can you please direct me to it .
[03:46] <holstein>  sure.. #ubuntu-news
[03:46] <holstein> urlin2u: :)
[03:47] <kamilnadeem> Sorry for posting about my blog here guys, I forgot that this also is a support only  channel, I have just been reprimanded on the main ubuntu channel . My mistake
[03:48] <kamilnadeem> Thanks for the news channel holstein
[03:48] <kamilnadeem> Take care everyone :)
[13:36] <duanedesign> 'lo all
[13:46] <truepurple> hi
[16:25] <ashickur-noor> hi
[16:26] <duanedesign> hi
[16:26] <ashickur-noor> how r u ?
[16:28] <ashickur-noor> facing problem in video chat
[17:03] <eyadof> hi everybody i need help to setup a bridge network between virtualbox and my ubuntu can someone help , please ?
[17:04] <ashickur-noor> what kind of bridge network?
[17:04] <ashickur-noor> what u want to do?
[17:05] <eyadof> i have ubuntu server on virtual box i want to install a bridge adapter between it and my system
[17:06] <eyadof> my host os is ubuntu 11.10
[17:06] <eyadof> i've edited the interfaces file
[17:07] <eyadof> but "device not managed " is written  in network manger
[17:13] <ashickur-noor> what is your purpose of bridging network?
[17:13] <ashickur-noor> sharing file or sharing internet?
[17:13] <eyadof> the both
[17:14] <nlsthzn> eyadof: in vbox, right click the netowork icon of the virtual machine and channge NAT ro Bridged...
[17:14] <eyadof> i do this
[17:14] <nlsthzn> not inside the guest OS, in Vbox itself
[17:14] <ashickur-noor> if you want to share internet then use NAT
[17:15] <nlsthzn> eyadof: you want to give the guest OS access to the internet right?
[17:15] <ashickur-noor> to file share Use Host only adapter
[17:16] <eyadof> ok so i have to use two adapter
[17:16] <eyadof> right?
[17:16]  * nlsthzn might not be understanding the whole question / issue ... sorry for just jumpin in like that... ashickur-noor you seem to have it covered... carry on
[17:17] <ashickur-noor> eyadof: not sure
[17:17] <eyadof> mmm
[17:19] <eyadof> ok , let's say i want to configure a Nat apapter how to ?
[17:19] <nlsthzn> eyadof: what are you trying to achieve exactly... you want the vbox guest to have access to the Internet?
[17:21] <eyadof> i want to bind some virtual os to ubuntu server to test some things
[17:21] <eyadof> and my host os too .
[17:22] <Lorizean> hey, I got a question about locales. I'm trying to run a japanese program via wine and I use "LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 wine ...", but the locale doesn't get recognized by wine
[17:22] <Lorizean> I got the japanese language installed and all
[17:22] <nlsthzn> eyadof: I am not understaning 100%, do you want to for example, SSH into your virtual box guest from the host system etc?
[17:23] <eyadof> yes some thing like that
[17:23] <eyadof> and from guest to the host
[17:25] <nlsthzn> eyadof: ok... in the bottom of the virtual box guest you will see the netowrk icons (two small PC's), right click select network settings... change NAT to bridged adn your good to go...
[17:26]  * nlsthzn was playing around with a server in a vbox sessions just last week :)
[17:26] <eyadof> ok i do that
[17:26] <jconner> hello everyone
[17:26] <eyadof> but when i " ping " to the host it say "not reachable"
[17:27] <nlsthzn> perhaps after changing, reboot the guest... to get new IP etc...
[17:28] <nlsthzn> I did see that my server got 10.0.0.x initially and after switching to bridged it got the same as my local network
[17:28] <jconner>  can any help me with fixing a drm error ?
[17:34] <eyadof> nlsthzn sorry but i restart the guest os and i still unable to reach to my host
[19:21] <r4y> Hello
[19:24] <r4y> I think it was my install of Ubuntu that caused the supposed bad sectors to possibly fictiously exist.
[19:24] <holstein> r4y: if so, you should report the error as a bug report
[19:24] <holstein> that personally has never happened to me
[19:25] <r4y> I ran DBAN, then I ran Disk Utility on a live CD of Ubuntu and there was no show of problems, then I ran SpinRite and no problems
[19:25] <holstein> but, if you were to do BTRFS i would expect some 'beta'-ness
[19:25] <r4y> I am running Disk Utility right now to check again
[19:26] <holstein> you can have file system erros that fsck would fix that dont mean the hard drive is bad/failing
[19:26] <holstein> you can get those from shutting down improperly... bad ram maybe?
[19:26] <r4y> What if the problem was fixed. That was an install from a CD I made around the time 10.04 first came out
[19:27] <holstein> r4y: the problem would be specific to your installation
[19:27] <holstein> the install would be fine, then something would cause some bad data
[19:27] <holstein> you might actually have the one and only isolated case where linux broke your hard drive
[19:27] <r4y> Hmm, how do I check the ram?
[19:28] <holstein> but, generally, when you hear the sound of hooves, look for horses, not zebras, or so they say..
[19:28] <holstein> r4y: at boot, there a memory test
[19:28] <holstein> theres one all all the live ubuntu CD's (and all the variants im aware of)
[19:29] <holstein> as well as several memory tests on that ultimate boot cd i mentioned
[19:29] <r4y> Right, that's using Ubuntu for the ram test, right?
[19:29] <holstein> http://www.memtest.org/
[19:29] <holstein> r4y: nope
[19:29] <r4y> Is that in Disk Utility from the live cd?
[19:29] <holstein> thats using the ubuntu disc to initiate memtest which is included on the live CD's
[19:30] <holstein> r4y: nope
[19:30] <holstein> before booting
[19:30] <holstein> you hit shift to show the advanced options
[19:30] <holstein> you'll see 'install' 'run live' and 'memory test'
[19:30] <r4y> O, I think I know what you mean, sorry
[19:30] <holstein> also, from you installation
[19:30] <holstein> in grub, you'll see 'memtest'
[19:31] <r4y> I meant earlier, I was asking that after installing Ubuntu at boot memtest is there so
[19:32] <r4y> It used to be we had to hold down esc or tab to get grub to show and it used to say what to hold down. Now it's shift I think.
[19:32] <holstein> right
[19:33] <holstein> used to me not hidden
[19:33] <holstein> i go in and edit GRUB to be not hidden
[19:33]  * holstein gotta run..
[19:33] <r4y> O OK
[19:33] <r4y> Should I install and then run fsck
[19:34] <r4y> OK, never mind
[19:37] <r4y> OK, I read everything over again. Bye
[22:51] <JackyAlcine> ibuclaw, :)
[22:51] <JackyAlcine> It's been ages!
