FoxhoundzIs there any reason why Ubuntu (and its derivatives) download/install language packs for no reason00:06
Foxhoundzwhat are these language packs for?00:06
ActionParsnipFoxhoundz: install localepurge and you can get rid00:06
dpb_people that don't speak english natively. :)00:06
Foxhoundzdpb_: Well, why is it doing it without user permission00:06
Foxhoundzor choice for that matter00:07
dpb_Foxhoundz: it's a pretty common practice with operating systems.  Mac os x, windows, etc.  Because a lot of people don't speak english, and you want to make it easy for them to use the O/S00:07
Foxhoundzdpb_: Agreed. However, couldn't the install process simply ask the user to pick and choose which language pack to download in the first place?00:08
ActionParsnipFoxhoundz: I believe it's somehow set when you install00:08
Foxhoundzinstead of downloading everything00:08
is_nullhi all, in the keyboard shortcuts window, i've selected a shortcut to edit and i hold ctrl a for a while but it doesn't change anything: the shortcut is still reported as "disabled". Any idea ?00:09
ActionParsnipFoxhoundz: Its to make the system easier for non-techies00:09
FoxhoundzActionParsnip: That doesn't make sense00:09
FoxhoundzYou could just have a screen or a drop down control where you simply prompt the user for their specific language00:09
FoxhoundzI don't see how that would be too difficult for the average joe to figure out00:09
ActionParsnipFoxhoundz: yep, many other distros do have that, but the audience of ubuntu are non-technical users, so the installer is as simple as possible00:10
dpb_Foxhoundz: sorry... can't help you on the why questions. beyond what I've already said. :)00:10
FoxhoundzThe developers are out of touch with the community.00:10
FoxhoundzAnyway, back to installing Linux Mint00:11
ActionParsnipMint'scommunity is tiny compared to Ubunus00:11
FoxhoundzWell Mint is somewhat of a fork of Ubuntu00:11
dpb_Yes, I for one am very happy about multilingual support in ubuntu, opens it up to more users, which is very cool.00:12
Foxhoundzthe packages are compatable with Ubuntu00:12
ActionParsnipyes, and its not supported in the Ubuntu channels00:12
FoxhoundzThe install process is identical to Ubutnu00:12
ActionParsnipFoxhoundz: still, its offtopic here00:12
FoxhoundzI'm quite sure it is. That's why my question concerned Ubuntu00:13
ActionParsnip!mint00:13
FoxhoundzWhich secretly addressed a Mint issue ;-)00:13
ActionParsnipFoxhoundz: its not00:13
FoxhoundzYes, it is.00:13
FoxhoundzUbuntu DOES install language packs without permission00:13
Foxhoundzwhich is carried over to mint00:13
ActionParsnipits not supported here, it has its own channel00:13
apwbdjpActionParsnip, ubottu's still not back :'(00:14
RothamActionParsnip:  I'm logged in as root, and I have tried making the folder both within $HOME and outside00:14
FoxhoundzActionParsnip: Again, this is why my question concerned Ubuntu.00:14
ActionParsnipFoxhoundz: is your question actually for mint?00:14
dpb_ActionParsnip: stop feeding him. :)00:14
FoxhoundzActionParsnip: As far as you're concerned, no.00:15
ActionParsnipRotham: strange, is the partition healthy00:15
FoxhoundzTo quote myself: (6:06:18 PM) Foxhoundz: Is there any reason why Ubuntu (and its derivatives) download/install language packs for no reason00:15
dpb_speaking of, dinner time for me.00:15
dpb_:)00:15
ActionParsnip!ops | Foxhoundz wants support for mint and won't listen00:15
FoxhoundzMy question stated Ubuntu as the issue00:15
RothamActionParsnip:  It should be, but how can I tell?00:15
chrislabeardcan anyone link to me to a good tutorial for rsync and ssh. I'm able to login to ssh without using a password with my pub key but I'm unable to use rsync and ssh00:15
reisioFoxhoundz: because people invariably want to change their languages with a single click00:15
ActionParsnipRotham: boot to liveCD and fsck00:15
=== max is now known as Guest13697
Rothamits a vps00:15
reisioFoxhoundz: the pricier versions of Windows also come with unnecessary language packs preinstalled00:15
Rothambtw00:15
Rothamdont think i can boot to liveCD00:16
pangolinFoxhoundz: Please stop. Mint is not supported here. go ask in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.net00:16
FoxhoundzFor the 4th time (+) , my question concerned Ubiquity + Ubuntu00:16
FoxhoundzI only mentioned Mint because it was based on Ubuntu00:16
Foxhoundzlet's not get carried away people00:16
mbeierlFoxhoundz: either way, I don't think you'd be able to get an answer as to why Ubuntu installs language packs for no reason.  Typically devs who make such decisions aren't in this channel...00:17
Foxhoundzmbeierl: Thank you for your answer00:17
FoxhoundzThat actually helped.00:17
mbeierlFoxhoundz: for what it was worth, you are welcome ;)00:18
FoxhoundzIt would be nice if someone close to the devs could drop a suggestion to change this behavior00:18
FoxhoundzIts not pretty when you're on a metered bandwith00:18
pangolinFoxhoundz: file a bug on launchpad.net00:18
reisioFoxhoundz: how big are they altogether?00:18
mbeierlFoxhoundz: that would actually be a bug report, or a suggestion in ... what's it called... brainstorm?00:18
reisiobrainstorm, is that short for wasting your time?00:19
pangolina bug report would be better00:19
Foxhoundzreisio: I have no idea. I'm not sure where it saves the packs00:19
reisioFoxhoundz: it's probably negligible00:20
reisiotext doesn't take up much space00:20
mbeierlpangolin: for this, I can see it being worthy of a bug, but in general, "I would prefer" type of things usually start here: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/00:20
Foxhoundzis there a specific package for the language packs?00:20
reisiodpkg -l | egrep -i 'lang|ling|i18n|l10n' might tell you00:21
mbeierlFoxhoundz: indeed... I did a quick review of my installed languages and there are very few.  Perhaps you could simple deselect those that you don't want.  Or is this during the install process that it is doing a download that you do not want00:22
mbeierlFoxhoundz: if so, something like an alternate install cd might be a better way to go.  I did not have this issue when installing Natty, at least.00:22
Foxhoundzmbeierl: This occurs when you're first installing Ubuntu with a network connection00:23
Foxhoundzor else it just skips it00:23
mbeierlFoxhoundz: I should clarify my earlier statement: I see literally tens of languages, but about 4 that are actually installed.00:23
mbeierlFoxhoundz: I used a live usb for the install and was network connected and do not recall this happening to me.  I too have limited bandwidth (not a bw cap, but just really slow)00:24
mbeierlFoxhoundz: 11.11 or what version?00:24
apwbdjpFoxhoundz, I've installed many times with an alternate cd, with a shared gprs connexion, it didn't download any extra language pack00:25
drulichello, how can i access a server using ssh and using a key? i always used putty on windows but i dunno how to do it here00:25
Foxhoundzmbeierl: 11.1000:25
mbeierlFoxhoundz: that's what i meant ;)  Just fat fingers.  Ok, so I have not tried that one, and if that's the case, then it is a bug worthy of launchpad indeed.00:26

ActionParsniphttp://www.debuntu.org/ssh-key-based-authentication00:31
seekwillDoes anyone have a recommendation on a USB wifi card with great reception and works out of the box?00:31
mbeierldrulic: from the command line, you specify the key to use with the -i flag like so: ssh -i key.pem user@server00:31
usacomputertec_Can someone tell me how to edit the gdm config files?00:31
usacomputertec_I need to remove "Ubuntu" = Unity as an option.00:31
luis_reisio whenever I click on hibernate or issue the hibernate command or the s2disk command, the screen goes black and then comes back to the normal screen again00:31
mbeierldrulic: you can also use the ssh-agent to store the key and present it with subsequent connections, but if the -i works for you, it's easiest00:32
drulicmbeierl: thanks i am gonna try it00:32
ActionParsnipusacomputertec_: which release?00:32
usacomputertec_Hello00:32
usacomputertec_ActionParsnip I'm using xubuntu 11.10 and I'm removing everything xubuntu and installing gnome and gdm00:33
mbeierldrulic: you're welcome.  I've actually done quite a lot using ssh keys, so ask again if you hit a wall...00:33
usacomputertec_in hopes to avoid the Ubuntu bloat00:33
ActionParsnipusacomputertec_: nice move00:33
reisioluis_: s2disk doesn't give any errors?00:33
ScuniziHow do you find the package name of a widgit in kubuntu?  It's the calculator widgit you can put on the screen.00:33
usacomputertec_the problem is Ubuntu's gdm package is configured to log into Unity by default, and I don't even want it in there. ActionParsnip00:33
ActionParsnipusacomputertec_: look in /etc/gdm   maybe00:34
reisioluis_: maybe you should try using tuxonice instead of uswsusp00:34
usacomputertec_ok00:34
luis_i'll give it a try reisio, any particular advice?00:35
drulicmbeierl: might be a stupid question but... where should i save my .pem key? i guess the desktop is not a save place :P00:35
usacomputertec_ActionParsnip it doesn't appear to contain any config files. Only bianary files.00:35
ActionParsnipusacomputertec_: or try /etc/init/gdm.conf00:35
seekwilldrulic: ~/.porn/00:35
mbeierldrulic: the usual spot is in your home directory, under the ".ssh" directory (hidden in the Nautlus explorer by default)00:35
reisioluis_: that was my advice :D00:36
usacomputertec_awesome lets try it00:36
=== ubuntu is now known as KxyZ
mbeierldrulic: and it's also customary to set the permissions to "600", or owner read/write, everyone else access denied00:36
mbeierldrulic: from a terminal "chmod 600 .ssh/key.pem"00:36
=== PaulW2U is now known as G4MBY
drulicmbeierl: thanks again00:38
mbeierldrulic: also, I should mention in case you were not aware: on the server, the .ssh/authorized_keys file must be set to 600 or it will not be acceptable to the ssh server and it won't work00:38
usacomputertec_ActionParsnip no Gnome / unity stuff in there.00:38
ActionParsnipusacomputertec_: does it have about autologin and such?00:39
mbeierldrulic: or ... wait, that side was already set up, if i understood you correctly.  you used it from putty before, just never linux.00:39
seekwillmbeierl: I make those files 40000:39
usacomputertec_ActionParsnip what are you talking about?00:39
mbeierlseekwill: even better.  I know that 600 is the bare minimum that ssh will accept00:40
ActionParsnipusacomputertec_: the file I mentioned00:40
AzymuthHi all00:40
seekwillmbeierl: I don't need to write to them very often, and I worry about some cases where some rogue app can write to it but not able to chmod it00:40
usacomputertec_I'll look at it again00:40
mbeierlseekwill: it's a good practise00:40

xanguathere is a minitube ppa that gives you the latest stable version and there is also gstreamer ppa, it may work for totem Nfisher01:49

R3db3ardbalistic22, yeah i'd definitely read A LOT about it before you go tooling around in gparted02:22
balistic22Jonta, all the solutions have failed im not too familiar with Terminal Terminology (no pun intended)02:22

Emiruto install windows on a given partition, how do I create that partition ?02:46
JontaEmiru: GParted?02:46
maestrojedI guess this "application" is not what ubuntu would consider an application. its minecraft server which is a java file. Maybe my home directory is a better spot for it?02:47
EmiruJonta: oh right ! I never did this before, is it intuitive or do I really need a tutorial ?02:47
JontaEmiru: Meh, tutorial isn't really that complex. Have a look, and then a try (:02:48

Jontamaestrojed: Are you trying to install it, or trying to find it?02:48
maestrojedJonta trying to figure out the best practices of where to put files like this. I initially was going to put it in /usr/bin but then I need to run it as root. Now I am thinking ~ but I would like to know where you or others would put it02:49
JontaHm, standard is iirc 4 different places for bins02:50
lalaland1125maestrojed: Personal programs should be places in /usr/local. There is a bin directory, lib directory, include directory etc02:50
maestrojedJonta lalaland1125 ok, but even /usr/local/bin is owned/group by root02:51
psychx-Sorry for this question, but I'm using Lubuntu; and I'm trying to figure out how to find my network information (ip, gateway, etc.) Can someone please enlighten me?02:51
lalaland1125maestrojed: Use sudo and install.02:51
maestrojedJonta lalaland1125 and it seems if I create a destop launcher for it that it won't work. Because I have not used sudo.02:51
xanguapsychx-: clic on the network indicator and select Details02:52
sharpKwhat is "/." btw?02:52
maestrojedlalaland1125 yeah, I know, I can run the server. I have been. I just feel like I have it in the wrong spot or don't get something because I can't create a launcher, etc.02:52
sharpKI mean "./"...?02:52
lalaland1125./ is the current directory.02:53
JontaAka .02:53
psychx-xangua: I don't see any details option on the network indicator. It shows: Wired Connection 2, Disconnect, and VPN Connections. When I click on Wired Connection 2, it just refreshes (seems like its reconnecting to this connection)02:53
maestrojedlalaland1125 and this is specific. But I generally feel like I put stuff in the wrong place. I was putting stuff in /usr/bin, I will start using /usr/local/bin02:53
lalaland1125maestrojed: Yeah, that would be the right place.02:53
psychx-xangua: NVM, I figured it out. Thanks :)02:53
maestrojedlalaland1125 thx02:53

Braden`How do you force remove a package?03:11
Emirubut to reinstall grub im required to boot form boot-repair and on the link you sent me it said boot on a live CD03:11
reisiomaestrojed: because et_cetera is too long03:12
reisioEmiru: your Ubuntu install CD03:12

bc81hello. what's the terminal command to "safely remove" a USB drive, so that it is removed from nautilus' side pane?  sudo umount /media/usbdrive unmounts, but it still remains in the side pane..03:12
aking1012it doesn't matter if it's in the side pane...03:13
aking1012'sync && umount /dev/whatever'03:13
AurigaQuestion, I'm using a netbook with Gnome3 on it. The screen is too small for some windows, right now an install screen has the bottons obscured by the screen being small & I can't hit the next button... Any ideas on what to do?03:13
aking1012use xfce instead of gnome03:13
reisiobc81: why not right click its entry in Nautilus?03:13
Emiruaking1012 reisio: All good ! thanks guys ill do this now03:13
almoxarifebc81: showing as 'unmounted' or as mounted?03:13
aking1012it just didn't refresh03:14
aking1012df will show you if it's mounted03:14
bc81reisio, i'd like to incorperate this "safely remove" functionality into a script (for automation)03:14
aking1012sync will force it to flush writes03:14
Braden`Does anyone know the answer to my query?03:14
reisioBraden`: the answer is: what is your query03:15
CarlFKbc81: eject03:15
aking1012he wants to 'safely' force remove a package03:15
bc81almoxarife: it's unmounted just fine...but with the "safely remove" function (nautils's side pane > right click device > safely remove) it disappears.03:15
Braden`I dunno about safely03:16
Braden`I just want it off the list03:16
Braden`So it stops alerting me that a package failed to install everytime I run apt03:16
bc81CarlFK: eject does the same thing as umount, in that the device remains in nautilus' side pane (which i'd like to avoid for the purposes of the script03:16

godofmischiefany help would be much appreciated03:29
x_godofmischief, tab?03:29
godofmischiefx_ tried that, didn't seem to work maybe that is it tho idk.03:29
godofmischiefx_: i had a problem either way cause the xserver was running when i did it, so that might work with the xserver shutdown03:30
Gunz4MiPPlegodofmischief: you mean, how to get to a virtual terminal and stop/start x?03:30
godofmischiefi can run a virtual terminal with ctrl atl f2 and ctrl f7 switches back to my xserver session, so yes, once ive dropped down to a terminal mode how do i kill the running xserver03:31
reisiogodofmischief: tab, left/right arrow keys, or space03:31
reisiogodofmischief: either sudo service lightdm stop or s/lightdm/gdm/03:31
godofmischiefother then ps -A then kill ID03:32
aking1012sudo init 3 should get you to not a gui....pretty sure ubuntu still launches X there though03:32

jjjrmyI don't have a gui or anything.03:55
somsipjjjrmy: what is the specific problem03:55
PeablogHow can I install Make 3.82 on Ubuntu 9.10?03:55
jjjrmysomsip: I have no GUI and I need to put some php files on here and import a database.03:56
jjjrmyBut I don't know how.03:56
somsipjjjrmy: what access do you have to the machine?03:56
jjjrmysomsip: sudo03:56
tensorpuddingPeablog, why03:56
jjjrmysomsip: I just installed Ubuntu Server.03:56
somsipjjjrmy: do you have pysical access to it or is it a remote server?03:57
tensorpudding3.82 is really new03:57
jjjrmysomsip: it's in my lap right now03:57
jjjrmysomsip: Can we talk in PM?03:57
tensorpuddingis it not03:57
somsipjjjrmy: and where are the PHP files03:57
jjjrmyon my FTP/Webserver03:57
jjjrmyI need a offline server so I can show it at a presentation without wifi.03:57
tensorpuddingoh wait, it isn't, meh03:58
tensorpuddingfrom july03:58
somsipjjjrmy: have you setup the webserver software (usually Apache, PHP and MySQL)?03:58
tensorpuddingbut it hasn't been put in debian sid yet03:58
jjjrmysomsip: I just click LAMP.03:58
PeablogTo install a testing "The Mana World server", so I can contribute.03:58
somsipjjjrmy:  and are they setup?03:58
jjjrmysomsip: I don't know!03:59
tensorpuddingPeablog, why do you need make 3.82 for that03:59
tensorpuddingit's almost surely the case that 3.81 will be sufficient to build it03:59
somsipjjjrmy: do you have a text-based browser installed? links, lynx or others03:59
jjjrmysomsip: Keeps saying "Couldn't find package links" when I try to install anything04:00
tensorpuddingit's inconceivable that the makefile will use features that are not included in 3.81 given that 3.82 released less than half a year ago, and 3.81 was the stable version for nearly five years04:00
somsipjjjrmy: so what stage are you actually at with this? It seems like you're well before the stage of being ready to copy PHP files over04:01
jjjrmysomsip: The install said it's done. I'm on a black screen and logged into sudo.04:01
somsipjjjrmy: so what did you mean when you said04:01
somsipjjjrmy: ...Couldn't find package links?04:02
jjjrmyI type in "sudo apt-get install cowsay" and it says "E: Couldn't find package cowsay04:02
somsipjjjrmy: and what is package cowsay?04:03
reisioits' for what apt-get moo04:03

jjjrmysomsip: no04:11
rigelsorry, let me try and be more clear. can i make network manager connect to HiddenNetwork whenever it sees PublicGuestNetwork04:11

x_reisio, sort of... do you notice how on my conky the login screen of all things is bleeding through ?04:19

reisiodetrix42: openbox is just a window manager04:22
reisiodetrix42: Thunar is Xfce's file manager, Xfce gets its desktop icons from xfdesktop04:22

almoxarifeI am a hybrid user of ubuntu/kubuntu, kubuntu itself confuses me, too many options and ubuntu/gnome3 don't have enough, so I use some of both, I get errors with some kubuntu apps that make me think I don't have enough of the backbone installed, so, which app would provide me with the most of the backbone without a full blown kubuntu install??05:00

nvzI need to backup temporarily about 60gb or so of data from one ubuntu machine to another sitting right next to one another.. is there anything that may be faster than rsync?06:57
nvzI suppose I could do this real fast if I took both machines apart and put both drives in the same machine but I know from experience my netbook has to be totally disassembled to get to the HDD and thats just a lot of work06:57
pangolindr_willis: someone in #ubuntustudio can probably help you with that.06:58
dr_willisa netbooks hd is also normally of the slower type also. so it may not be that much faster06:58
nvzthough now that I think about it I may just do that anyhow so I can do all the repartitioning and crap in one fail swoop06:58
dr_willispangolin:  yea. its going tobe my holiday project it seems. ;)06:58
pangolincool, make sure to write up some easy to follow instructions for me :)06:59
dr_willisi was suprised how well audacity cleaned up the audio.06:59
nvzI'm not sure how well this will turn out as the attempt to repartition to install ubuntu failed twice.. the drive may have some physical damage06:59
nvzhence why I am trying to offload the data and wipe it entirely06:59
nvzI'm just in the mess of currently having ubuntu on a 5gb partition that was the restore partition.. and thats just a mess07:00
nvzmakes life real difficult.. my next best idea was to link/bind most of the stuff to the larger partition I had debian on07:01
dr_willisnvz:  my main ubuntu install is on a 32gb flash drive ;)07:01
nvzyeah well, until I make enough money to get new hardware I just want to use ubuntu on there and have access to my whole drive without constantly running out of space07:01

dr_williswaiting to get a ssd for xmas. wonder if i can then dd this flash to the ssd.  never had a ssd befor07:02
nvzI'm obviously too tired/lazy to do anything right now so I think I'll just handle this task tomorrow and take the hdd out and put it into the desktop.. and hope for the best07:03
nvzI know there is a possibility all the reformatting and crap will toast the drive if it is in fact failing due to physical damage07:03
dr_willisput it out of its misery.07:04
nvzI was going to go with installing to an SD card since the netbook is getting old and falling apart.. but its a hardware hotplug pcie card reader that isnt supported by the bios07:04
nvzits the only machine I own right now and have no money.. so I gotta deal with it until I make the money to buy something new and actually decide on something new07:05

nvzyeah well thats what I want as in the past couple years this netbook has slowly become an over priced battery charger for devices I use more often07:12
nvzand it kills the battery too fast having the machine running when all I use it for is a backup battery for other devices07:12
nvzits usually not an advertised feature though which is annoying07:13
nvzI'm fairly certain the macbook air does it which is what I was thinking of getting for my next machine07:13

nvzbut truth is I really dont want OSX either, nor do I want ATI graphics07:14
nvzand the damn air is like 1100 or more, and for that price I can get way more hardware from somewhere like avadirect07:14
nvzthey have laptops that support like 3 sata drives in RAID 5, with 12gb of ram or more for that price.. heh07:15
dr_willismy big laptop with 2 sata and a 18.4 lcd is nice... and heavy..  nasty heavy07:17

dr_willisFreeWilly:  no idea. i raly look at the channel logs07:22

reisiodr_willis: for noise removal07:22

reisiowith ffmpeg/mencoder/mplayer07:23
dr_willisreisio:  i saw mention of that. wondered if it does as good a job as audacity does07:23
reisioI think you are the man to test it!07:23
dr_willisitem # 204 on my todo list07:24
FreeWillyanyone else maybe know if ubuntu pastebin keeps history?07:24
reisio$ wc -l lists/todo \n667 lists/todo07:24
reisioand I believe that is only since this new computer07:24
reisioFreeWilly: it'd probably be easier to find it via the three methods people already mentioned07:25
nvzeHAPPY: certainly doesnt sound normal to me, but I've only dabbled, I dont use nfs on a regular basis07:25
reisiothe 'history' command, your browser's history, and the IRC channel logs07:25

auronandace!yay | WebGoddess00807:43
ubottuWebGoddess008: Glad you made it! :-)07:43
WebGoddess008was trying to find out how to configure the dashbar on the left to perhaps be half the width so i can put like double the icons on it instead of having to scroll up and down ;-)07:43
reisio!cookie07:44
ubottuWow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie!07:44
reisioubottu: cookie07:44
reisioWebGoddess008: you are picky07:44
reisios/are/_are_/07:44
WebGoddess008and i haven't been able to figure out how to set up the keyboard shortcut so that my m$ keyboard can do copy with the "New" key and paste with the "Open" key since a single-button copy-n-paste makes me tons more efficient :P07:44
WebGoddess008lol yah i'm picky ;)07:45
* WebGoddess008 kinda a control freak or something07:45
WebGoddess008but i'm super happy w/Ubuntu, really great O/S07:45
WebGoddess008:)07:45
reisioyou don't know where the keyboard shortcut prefs are07:45
WebGoddess008i launched the keyboard shortcut prefs07:46
dr_willisnever seen a new or open key on a keybord. ;)07:46
reisioWebGoddess008: it doesn't detect those keys?07:46
WebGoddess008it does, just when i add the "Copy" and "Paste" under custom shortcuts07:46
WebGoddess008then it doesn't seem to work correctly07:47
dr_willisyou have noticed you can normally select, and middle click to copy/paste  ;)07:47
reisioWebGoddess008: in that nothing happens?07:47
WebGoddess008ahh okay07:47
WebGoddess008well i set Copy to "New" and "Paste" to "SunOpen" in the shortcuts07:48
auronandaceWebGoddess008: keyboard shortcuts are usually combinations (more than 1 key); you'd otherwise want to alter the keymap07:48
reisiostill, it should allow it07:48
reisioauronandace: are you saying it doesn't?07:48
WebGoddess008yah just not wanting to spend tons of time on it lol07:48
WebGoddess008got work to do and all that jazz lol07:48
WebGoddess008i suppose i can just use the mouse for now ;)07:48
WebGoddess0081110 is quite nice though...good job to all of ya'll who worked on it <307:49
auronandacereisio: i'm guessing, i've never come across a shortcut that simply changed the function of an already existing single key07:49
WebGoddess008well m$ keyboard has the "help" "undo" "redo" "new" "open" etc keys07:49
reisioauronandace: so no07:50
WebGoddess008so on windoze i can use intellitype to remap "new" to copy and "open" to paste07:50

reisioI was just reading that the settings manager isn't particularly stable :p07:55
reisiowhich is fairly typical (helper apps being less stable)07:55
WebGoddess008cool, so if i tweak stuff on here i'm not gonna end up with a borked unity dashbar? ;)07:55
dr_willisdont go crazy with the plugins. ;) or in ccsm07:55
WebGoddess008well07:55
WebGoddess008lol07:55
reisioif you do you'd probably only have to move ~/.config/ or the like07:55
reisioto get back to defaults07:55
WebGoddess008i'll just stick to the basics, i'm cool w/the dashbar icons @32px and the auto-hide07:55

[dlp]Ok... in this case, I'm trying to install skype. When I mark it for installation aptitude reports 59 breaks, the only available solution being to keep all 59 packages (including Skype itself) at current version (UNINST).

zabomberBenkinoob: tried tcpdump?09:04
zabomberwith grep09:04
[dlp]ikonia: Yes.09:05
Benkinoobyzabomber, wireshark does the same job as tcpdump09:05
ikonia[dlp]: you may actually have conflicting packages then09:05
[dlp]ikonia: Aha, now we're getting somewhere. Let me remove backports and update...09:06
Browserhi09:06
reisiohi09:06
ikonia[dlp]: it may be (hopefully not) too late if any of the backport packages have been installed and a conflict created09:09
OinsHi. How can I import a CA File into Pidgin?09:11
[dlp]ikonia: No, there are still problems, by the looks of things.09:11
ikonia[dlp]: I'm not massivly shocked by that09:12
[dlp]ikonia: In that case, I'll have to decide which is the lesser of two evils in terms of either reinstalling the system or learning about the package management system in enough detail to fix the problems.09:14
ikonia[dlp]: well it depends on the conflict09:14
SoWhathow to set which aplication opens which files by default?09:16
[dlp]ikonia: The main problem is that I've got a fair bit of technically unsupported software "installed" outside package management. I had to make a lot of tweaks to get these working, hence the reason I'm reluctant to reinstall. I'd have to go through the whole process again.09:17

pratzhey guys i have ubuntu 10.04 and  I installed "pdftk" version 1.41 ,but there is a know bug in this and that's why i downloaded pdftk version 1.44.deb , when i try to install this deb package i get the error Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libgcj11 (>= 4.4)09:26
pratzAny idea what i should do now ?\09:26
s3r3n1t7pratz, that file needs a dependency which isn't yet in the ubuntu repo's. You'll have to find it manually09:27
pratzs3r3n1t7: but if that has another dependency and if the dependencies goes recursive , should i manually install all that stuff ?09:27
s3r3n1t7pratz, it's the only way to get that newer version you want installed09:28
=== `mOOse` is now known as m00se
pratzs3r3n1t7: but  libgcj11 depends on 11 other dependencies, then even i need to install them too (manually )09:29
pratzs3r3n1t7: correct ?09:29
s3r3n1t7pratz, correct. If you want a newer program to be installed, which depends on newer versions of dependencies also not  in the ubuntu repo, then you'll be in for one hell of a ride as it's gonna take you loads of time09:30

faLUCEhi, I'm using the integrated graphic cardo of a i5 2400 cpu (ubuntu 11.10, kernel 3.0.0-12-generic). Unfortunately, I have to use "nomodeset" (otherwise I have blank screen after boot) and can't use high resolution. How can I solve?09:30
pratzGirlyGirl: i have ubuntu 10.04 and  I installed "pdftk" version 1.41 ,but there is a know bug in this and that's09:30
pratz               why i downloaded pdftk version 1.44.deb , when i try to install this deb package i get the error Error:09:30
pratz               Dependency is not satisfiable: libgcj11 (>= 4.4)09:30
theadminfaLUCE: You have to install your graphic drivers.09:31
faLUCEtheadmin: how?09:32
GirlyGirlpratz: Gernerally the LTS versions no longer get new software after the next version has been released. They get security updates for the old versions and critical bug fixes backported (similar to debian stable). SO if you want new software with newer libraries etc upgrade to 11.1009:32
theadminfaLUCE: Normally you can use the built-in "Hardware Drivers" tool.09:32
theadminGirlyGirl: Hey, long time no see :D09:32

zagabarI am programming an application that sends udp data over a specific port. I want to monitor this to make sure it is really sent. Is there a nice way I can monitor the eth0 for udp packages over a certain port?10:42
=== dong is now known as simon-zhu

Lantiziadr_willis, yeah that works but the tab on the nvidia-settings program for changing resolutions and screen layout doen't work... "Unable to load X Server Display Configuration page: Failed to query NoScanout for screen 0."10:43

coz_Cindy1,  ok. did you check the md5sum of the iso image before burning it to cd?12:05
Cindy1coz_: yes.12:05
RoadsterGThey12:06
Cindy1coz_: what's the recomended system requirement (not the min requirement) for Ubuntu 11.10?12:06
coz_Cindy1,  mm.. there is an alternative  and that would be the minimal install cd which is 19 megs.. it installs via the internet,, so little chance of burn errors,, however I am still guessing it may be the  intel video chip,,, you probably should try the minimal just to test,, or as suggested, there are other ubunt derivitives12:07
RoadsterGThow can i deactivate and blacklist the OSS module?12:07
Malamendeej1976: Thanks12:07
coz_Cindy1,   your system is fine interms of requirements,, it's that darn intel video chip that I am questioning12:07
deej1976Malamen: Did you find the missing Gb's12:07
coz_Cindy1,   elementary  Jupiter is a minimal ubuntu derivitive,, it may work12:08
Cindy1coz_: Ok. Thanks12:08
coz_Cindy1,  i would experiment with the minimal install cd first12:08
Malamendeej1976: Thanks. I havent paid atention on "du -sm" was not counting hidden items12:08
coz_Cindy1,  if that does not boot,, you could change the boot sequence  by adding   nomodeset  to it12:09
Malamendeej1976: realy thanks12:09
coz_!nomodeset | Cindy112:09
ubottuCindy1: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter12:09
Cindy1coz_ : thanks for the info.12:09
coz_Cindy1,  if ubuntu is already installed , try the nomodeset first12:09

deej1976harsh343: Then plug in your pendrive and try to write to it.12:25
Cindy1_jason : 768mb RAM12:25
_jasonCindy1: try both (and maybe even regular ubuntu too) and see what you like.  You can install one version, then install the others using the package manager (sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop for example).  By the way, ram is relatively cheap nowadays if you want to speed up your computer a bit12:27

_jasonCindy1: 1gb of ram for your laptop is about 30 bucks12:31
dr_willispkug:  for 11.10 you can use 'dd' to image the iso file to the flash. no special tools needed12:31
dr_willispkug:  that only works with 11.10 - not the earlier ubuntu releases12:32
proxxpkug; sure that  is possible, or check out if there is a unetbootin port12:32

BluesKajJudge, did the auto in fstab work before , I don't see an auto option for staic mounts in that tutorial13:37
BluesKajerr static13:37
JudgeBluesKaj: No, it never worked. "auto" isn't a NFS specific option, it's a general mount option. And it isn't mounted automatically without "auto", either. When the system boots, I get an error related to "not route found" or such; it's too quick out of view and not logged anywhere.13:39
JudgeBluesKaj: You can find "auto" under "Troubleshooting" - "Mounting NFS shares in encrypted home won't work on boot" in that guide.13:40
cipherboyJudge: you sure you have internet on boot?13:40
BluesKajJudge, what about your export file is it showing rw permissions13:41
cipherboyJudge: if you don,t have networking fully set up when it tries to mount NFS shares, might give you that error. Can you mount it later (after logging in for example)?13:41
Mcl0vintheadmin: is there a way i can open tabs from the shell please13:42
Judgecipherboy: Not at all: We use Cisco components. These devices are known to take their time while initializing a switchport; often it takes 20 seconds or more until the first packet can pass the device. But there are two nfs - options which seem to not working also (see man nfs): bg and retry=X13:42
cipherboyMcl0vin tabs? Like do you mean screen?13:42
Mcl0vinno13:42
Judgecipherboy: And yes, a few seconds after boot, "mount -a" succeeds.13:43
deej1976!info screen | Mcl0vin:13:43
Judgecipherboy: So it seems as if the Ubuntu NFS mechanism lacks these retry - patterns.13:43
ubottuMcl0vin:: screen (source: screen): terminal multiplexor with VT100/ANSI terminal emulation. In component main, is optional. Version 4.0.3-14ubuntu8 (oneiric), package size 582 kB, installed size 1044 kB13:43
cipherboyJudge: oh, that is what I was missing -- fstab options. Yes, it is possible that certain Ubuntu versions lack these features.13:44
Judgecipherboy: Any ideas how to prevent these issues properly?13:44
cipherboy Judge: bg would hide the error messages and retry=X would allow you to reconnect until you succeed?13:45
llutz_cipherboy: if they lack those features, they had changed nfs-packages. in that case they have to document that somewhere. they didn't ->bugreport13:45
cipherboyllutz_ good point13:45
pmszHello. does anybody know how to prevent root from removing the immutable flag from a file? the cap-bound file under /proc has been removed in newer kernels?13:46
cipherboySorry, haven't looked at  NFS since I compiled it in gentoo.13:46
Judgecipherboy: That's what I understand when reading the manpage. But it doesn't work.13:46
Judgecipherboy: *gg* In Gentoo we have no issues .. ;D13:47
cipherboyWould it be an issue with the kernel?13:47
cipherboyJudge In gentoo did you build it in or as a module?13:47
blacksoftyes13:48
cipherboypmsz not familiar with what you are trying to do, but isn't that the point of root? You could try mounting it ro...13:48
Judgecipherboy: Works with both.13:48
blacksofthow to penetration with blackbuntu13:49
pmszthere used to be a flag CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE among the kernel capabilities which was possible to be set system-wide13:49
pmszthere were also other capabilities like one for disabling LKM at runtime and so on13:49
pmszit could be set via /proc but now... there doesn't seem to be an equivalent to the cap-bound file13:50
cipherboyJudge only thing I can think of is network drivers are loading after nfs module13:50
blacksofthow to update kernel ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04 ? how can it?13:50
hiwkhi, I'm using ubuntu 11.10 with the default unity interface. how can I alllow my mobile phone to send a file via bluetooth to my computer? I have paired the devices (initiated from the phone), but file sending fails13:50
cipherboyPmsz sorry, can't help.13:50
blacksoftsorry, can't help13:51
cipherboyAll, switching computers13:51
blacksofthi guy's, how to kill server in lan network13:52
Judgecipherboy: OK, lets assume this is the reason for the issue: I do not see a init script for NFS client mount in Ubuntu. Do you know how to have these started/mounted later?13:52
blacksoftplease right click, and then click mounted13:53
cipherboyback13:53
cipherboyJudge, any change?13:53
cipherboyJudge: btw, this server or desktop?13:53
froeshi guys.... do anyone knows a webUI to manage NAS ?13:53
cipherboyfroes: tried freenas?13:54
deej1976Judge: your on the client, and the nfs entries is in /etc/fstab ?13:54
cipherboyfroes: or is that not what you are looking for?13:54
Judgecipherboy: Lucid Server13:54
Judgedeej1976: Right.13:54
deej1976The mounting would be handles by autofs13:54
cipherboyJudge: you get the error on the client, saying no route to host?13:55
cipherboyWhat is the error?13:55
froescipherboy, it would be, if i could have squid, jetty, mysql, etc...13:55
froescipherboy, and as it replaces all confs at boot time. makes a little bit hard. i would have to "rebuilt" the whole distro13:55
faLUCEHi. I can boot with my distro (a lubuntu 11.10 based distro, created by me with remastersys utility) only if I set nomodeset. Otherwise I see a black screen after booting. Unfortunately, with nomodeset I can only see low resolution for the screen. How can I solve that? I tried the lubuntu 11.10 live cd and it sees high resolutions too. How can I correct this error in my custom distro?13:55
cipherboyfaLUCE: Install graphics drivers.13:56
cipherboyfroes: ah, didn't know that.13:56
deej1976Judge: The problem might be the network (dhcp) starting but not completing before and IP address is assigned. ( I've got this problem with nfs/nis homearea )13:56
faLUCEcipherboy: they must be already installed13:57
Judgecipherboy: When I reboot, the switch, the server is connected to, need to initialize the Port several seconds. When Ubuntu has switched it's eth's to "up" , it takes another ... 5 or 10 seconds before the port is up. This interferes with the NFS mount, since it really "has no route to host". It has automatically a few seconds later.13:57
froescipherboy, exactlly... if i has an arm board with a CF card of 1 GB. just to do NAS would be perfect13:57
cipherboyfaLUCE: meaning?13:57
cipherboyJudge: So couldn't you create an init script which just runs mount -a after a delay of 10 seconds or something?13:58
cipherboyfroes: seems to me there was another similar project, forgot what it was called though.13:58
llutz_Judge: dirty workaround: set a sleep=xx at /etc/init/mountall-net.conf (or whatever the  script mounting nfs is called)13:59
Judgecipherboy: That's one solution, but it's quite ugly :P13:59
deej1976Judge: I've got a script that waits until the network is up then restart autofs13:59
faLUCEcipherboy: ??13:59
Judgecipherboy: I'd prefer a "clean" one.13:59

faLUCEcipherboy: this is not the right solution14:02
Judgecipherboy: I think I'll solve it close to your suggestion. Thank you for your help!14:03
cipherboyJudge: how long does it take for a retry? Does it wait inbetween? Could it be it schedules a retry, but the autofs proc ends or something of the sort? (sorry, not familiar with fs mounting)14:03

G4rb4does anyone know how to generate Vala bindings from a C header file. All I need are the defined constants and struct definitions.14:06

jclbrtanyone know what happened to the compiz_fusion effects in 11.10?19:13
jclbrtthe older version of ubuntu (like a long time ago) use to have a place where you could set window effects and what not19:13
theadminjclbrt: GNOME no longer uses Compiz. So, well, they're not there.19:13
jclbrtoh noes19:13
theadminjclbrt: You have to install it separately.19:13
jclbrti loved that19:13
jclbrtoh19:13
jclbrtso just install compiz?19:13
theadminjclbrt: sudo apt-get install compiz compizconfig-settings-manager19:14
jclbrtthanks :-)19:14
EmiruCan I use clonezilla debian based if it's for ubuntu ?19:14
jclbrthavent used the desktop version of ubuntu in a LONG time19:14

theadminjclbrt: If you want to look at what a standard gnome feels like, install the "gnome-shell" package, log out, click the little gear thing and choose GNOME.19:16
jclbrthopefully it works in virtual box19:16
theadminjclbrt: It changed a lot too19:16
ETronikhey all, is anyone experiencing on 11.10 that transmission is getting stuck , blocked and the process  cannot even be easily "killed"19:16
ETronikoh not mentioning using 100% of the CPU...19:16
jclbrtthe compiz that is... i hope that works in Virtual Box19:16
theadminETronik: That happened to me on Windows... Consider another bittorrent client.19:16
theadminjclbrt: Install the guest additions for it to work19:16
jordanETronik: does it happen when you first start downloading & it begins writing the contents to disk?19:17
jclbrtyep i just did...19:17
jclbrtwe'll see what happens19:17
soreaujclbrt: Yes, youll need guest additions and working 3D19:17
jordanETronik: and if so, what filesystem are you saving to?19:17
jclbrti dedicated 4 CPUs to ubuntu and 8GB of ram to the guest19:17
ETronikjordan: maybe I really can't tell, most torrent are at near zero save for one19:17
jclbrti think that should be FAST enough ;-)19:17
ETronikjordan how do I find my filesystem type ?19:17
jclbrtfdisk19:18
theadminETronik: You may want to try qbittorrent, it's great really, has a classic utorrent-style UI and a ton of functions19:18
jordanETronik: one place is to look in /etc/fstab19:18
cari__veriHello, my ati grafics card runs with ubuntu kernel 2.6 jsut fine, but not with kernel 3.0.x it boots but is soo very slow. what can I do?19:19
ETronikjordan ext419:19
jordanhmm, is it an encrypted partition by any chance?19:19
ETronikjordan yeah I think so19:20
jordanp2p is hell on encrypted partitions because of all the near-random disk IO19:20
ETronikjordan shouldn't that be transparent to the applications ?19:20
jordanETronik: I'd recommend you use an unencrypted partition for your p2p, and then when it's done downloading/seeding you move it across to the encrypted partition19:21
jordanETronik: "transparent to the applications" -- I don't understand your question19:21
rypervencheETronik: I have an encrypted partition and I can run Transmission fine.19:21
ETronikjordan ok, hmm can I download directly to an SMB location ? using transmission ?19:21
=== shawn__ is now known as shankysv87
ETronikrypervenche: so. what might be causing this major instability ?19:22
jordanETronik: you could if the SMB location is mapped to a normal directory, but then you're going to have the SMB overhead too19:22
ETronikjordan I don't mind the overhead...19:22
jordanETronik: ideally you would be using a locally mounted, unencrypted drive with a decent filesystem (ext4 is fine)19:23
jclbrthmmm... no effects are working19:23
jclbrtor at least it doesnt seem to be applied19:23
jclbrtdunno19:23
jordanETronik: but, as you like it :)19:23
ETronikjordan but why does it need such high performance ? I don't get it...19:23
rypervencheETronik: You could try starting Transmission from the command line and see if it shows any errors.19:23
jordanAs you download and seed, you're encrypting and decrypting random sections of the file(s) as Transmission writes them to disk or reads them for seeding19:24
=== richard is now known as Guest1965
jclbrti hate transmission19:24
jordanI haven't experienced this firsthand, but I've seen many people complaining about torrent performance on encrypted drives -- transmission, deluge, ktorrent, w/e19:24
jclbrti even like utorrent more than transmission19:24
jordanjclbrt: what's wrong with transmission? :)19:24
ETronikjordan ok, so? I have fast laptop... or decent enough...19:24
jclbrtjust never had good experience with it19:25
theadminjclbrt: Like utorrent? Try qbittorrent :)19:25

Guest1965i installed ubuntu 10.04 as a second os on my win xp computer, i've installed the proprietary graphics driver, but scrolling web pages with alot of graphics is noticeable choppier/laggier than in xp, is there anything to do about this?19:25
ETronikso I still don't know, is it a system thing causing this ? or an application thing ?19:26
rypervencheGuest1965: What graphics card do you have and where did you download the proprietary driver from?19:26
GalvatronGuest1965: What graphics card is it?19:26
jordanETronik: well, okay. I'm just going from what you said, that the CPU is going at 100%, and that you're using an encrypted partition. If you want to put it to the test, try downloading to an unencrypted partition and compare the results19:26
rypervencheETronik: Try what I said and see if it gives any errors. Also try running it using the verbose option as well.19:26
Guest1965it's a geforce 7600 gs19:26
jordanencryption ain't free19:26
Guest1965and i installed it from the proprietary drivers menu in ubuntu19:27
ETronikrypervenche: how do I start transmission fom command line ?19:27
rypervencheGuest1965: Did you restart afterward?19:27
Guest1965rypervenche, yes19:27
GalvatronGuest1965: Then you have some pretty old drivers19:27
rypervencheETronik: Just type "transmission" in a terminal19:28
Guest1965Galvatron, i installed the driver listed as current19:28
GalvatronGuest1965: Try the very latest 290.10 from nVidia's website19:28
Guest1965Galvatron, ok19:28
Guest1965Galvatron, ok19:28
ETronikjordan sure I know what you mean, but by that argument one could not use database or anything that uses quite a bit of HD... I've used encrypted partitoins with no side-effects since the days of OS/2 (quite a few years back) and never had a problem19:29
ETronikI mean using a 386 as the processor...19:29
jclbrtbleh... where the heck can i change the theme in gnome now?19:29
rypervencheETronik: I'm using an EeePC with LVM on LUKS to do it and I have no problems. :P19:29
ETronikrypervenche: do how do I call transmission from command line ?19:30
froxhi, why doesn't Ubuntu has any trademark conflict that prevents the use of Firefox, as Debian does?19:30
rypervencheETronik: Scroll up. Just type "transmission".19:30
theadminfrox: Because Ubuntu doesn't modify Firefox's code.19:30
ETronikrypervenche: oops, :-) ok tks19:31
maestrojedI had a MySQL server on my Ubuntu box. The box has crashed and burned. Nothing will run but I can access the HD. Since I can't run mysqld I can't make a dump of the data. Can I back these databases up by strictly using the filesystem?19:31
rypervenchefrox: Because Ubuntu isn't as into Free software as Debian is. Yay Debian!19:31

jordan"Karmic with all updates. Home is encrypted with ecryptfs. I have tried downloading several torrents with thansmission and rtorrent. When downloading to the encrypted home, both programs hang, use 100% CPU and I can't kill them. Downloading to /tmp, which is not encrypted works."19:31

ActionParsnipdob1: in your opinion, yes. Others like it. I don't mind unity at all but only really use LXDE and Unity ocassionally19:54
dob1ActionParsnip, who like it?19:55
ActionParsnipdob1: the fact is, the desktop is changable, in Windows you have zero choice, you only have the given desktop, in Linux you can change it19:55
ActionParsnipdob1: I like it19:55
Jordan_Uresus: Yes, update-grub always overwrites the grub.cfg. Easiest solution is to add "timeout=5" to /boot/grub/custom.cfg (creating the file if it doesn't already exist).19:55
dob1ActionParsnip, have you seen other option from other os ?   windows 7, osx,   do you think that unity or gnome-shell are near to them?.... really... gnome2 was good why change it?19:56

warfarenwell that's it, if you write mv /* you move everything away from root.. not good22:38
yeatswindparadise: go to /home/afidegnum/Documents and move everything back to / ?22:38
warfarendoesn't matter what folder you're in. if you meant to move everything from the folder you were in you should've typed mv ./* ...22:38
windparadisethere is no folder there,22:38
JokesOnYou77kesi: How long have you waited with the blinking prompt?22:38
windparadiseand commans are not responding any more22:38
yeatswindparadise: you may need to reinstall :-/22:39
warfarenthat's becaues you moved the mv binary, so it cant find it22:39
kesiJokesOnYou77, at least 15 minutes a few times22:39
kesiJokesOnYou77, maybe even longer22:39
ari_no luck 4 me installing the alpha version that came out 2day22:39

boxbeatsyhi, after doing some quick research, i'm preparing to move my ubuntu system to a new computer.  my plan is to make a backup of pckgs using dpkg, rsync my home directory, and then install the pkglist.  am i missing anything?  in particular, will this miss package configurations (like apache configs)23:01
reisioboxbeatsy: might want to backup /etc/ too23:02
reisio!clone > boxbeatsy23:02
ubottuboxbeatsy, please see my private message23:02
reisioboxbeatsy: you can rsync the entire thing if you want23:02
reisioboxbeatsy: but you might have to debug a few missing drivers23:02
boxbeatsyah i see, the hardware is definitely different.  is there an easy way to fix the mismatched drivers?23:03
reisioboxbeatsy: yeah23:03

reisioboxbeatsy: for non-essential things you can temporarily add them as modules to /etc/modules23:04

Gentoo64reisio: i thought ubuntu had everything enabled as modules23:05
eternalulzi got in trouble :(23:05
reisioboxbeatsy: something else you could do is a fresh install, so all the drivers are auto-config'd23:05
reisioboxbeatsy: then rsync /etc/ :p23:05
reisioGentoo64: right, but critical drivers have to be loaded before the module system, by being built-in to the kernel or inside the initrd23:05
boxbeatsyreisio: hmm, yea that might be easier i think23:05
reisiolike the driver for using the hard disk23:06
boxbeatsyreisio: do you think i should rsync besides my home directory and /etc23:06
reisioboxbeatsy: you've got the old system, so you can't really go wrong, you can always copy more over23:06
reisioboxbeatsy: honestly, you could just do your home directory, and copy more from /etc/ _as needed_23:06

Phoenix87yesterday i have installed ubuntu on my brand new toshiba L755-1c1 laptop. I resized the windows partition with gparted during ubuntu installation. After that i kwen that windows would've been messed up and as expected win7 propted me the repair stuff. After an apparently successful repair windows started completely freezing during execution (frozen curson and keybord useless). I then tried ubuntu and I have experie23:14
Phoenix87nced the same issue with some disbelief. This just happend once on ubuntu, while it keeps happening on windows. I've run a complete cycle of memtest and ram seems to be ok. I have checked the hd with smart and hd seems to be ok. I have tried to fix the ntfs partition with ntfsprogs and they seems to be ok too. What could be causing this strange behaviour?23:14

PeeOnYou13 lines on my screen...23:15
reisioPhoenix87: it's really best to defrag Windows before resizing23:15

reisioPhoenix87: it's a bot, you don't have to talk to it23:15

ReikokuSorry for double post, accidentally hit enter23:16
Gentoo64reisio: how?23:16
Phoenix87anyway i did defrag twice before resizing the partition23:16
reisioGentoo64: how what23:16
Gentoo64reisio: if it detects any data on the partition itll move it23:16
Gentoo64so it dont get cut off23:16
reisioPhoenix87: have you run a chkdsk?23:16
Phoenix87yes23:16
reisioGentoo64: I already agreed it will move data23:16
Phoenix87i scheduled one at startup23:16
Phoenix87a full one23:16
reisioPhoenix87: you could try a "repair" install from a Windows disc23:17
Gentoo64reisio: so no different to defragging, moving data to the start of the disk23:17
Phoenix87i even used those ntfsprogs tools from linux23:17
reisioPhoenix87: it might delink your installed apps, I forget how that works23:17
Phoenix87reisio, unfortunately toshiba doesn't ship dvd23:17
reisioGentoo64: defragging is more than just moving data to the beginning of the disk23:17
Phoenix87i have a partition for repair23:17
Phoenix87but i don't know how to use it23:17
reisioPhoenix87: mmm23:17
Gentoo64reisio: i know, im saying in this case it isnt different23:17
reisioPhoenix87: assuming it isn't automated, if you boot it up, it might offer you a repair option23:18
reisioPhoenix87: some of them only offer restoring the original installed system (covering the whole hard disk)23:18
reisioGentoo64: I know you are, but it is23:18
Phoenix87i see23:18
Phoenix87reisio, i've read something about the usual f8 at boot23:18
reisio##windows might have more ideas23:18
Phoenix87and that the repair stuff could cause a factory reset of the machine23:18
Gentoo64reisio: how so?23:19
reisioPhoenix87: it could indeed23:19
Gentoo64just wana know thats all23:19
Phoenix87i guess i shall give it a try23:19
Phoenix87thanks reisio23:19

Phoenix87reisio, i think that my laptop has just one hd23:21
Gentoo64reisio: still dont understand lol23:21
reisioPhoenix87: might still check BIOS options, though if it _is_ something like that the damage may already be done23:21
reisioGentoo64: there are things I don't understand23:22
Gentoo64reisio: having gparted move data wont defrag it ofc, but imo theres still no need for defragging before partitioning23:22
twocarlowhy is it only one hardisk by the way23:22
Gentoo64as used data is moved anyway23:22
Phoenix87reisio, i think i'll do that too thanks :D23:22
reisioPhoenix87: also http://linux-laptop.net/ and if you do a search for the model at ubuntuforums.org, you might encounter a known issue23:23
